Not only Wang Erbian was distressed, but Guo Wei himself was also distressed. Although he went to court every day to review memorials and handle government affairs as usual, only he was aware of the pressure on his heart.

This battle was related to his life and death, honor and disgrace to his family and his life. Otherwise, he would not have been so angry when he heard that Wang Jun had been staying in Shaanzhou for a long time and would have even wanted to fight in person.

Even if Wang Jun leads his army across the river, no one can guarantee that he will return victorious. The Khitans are difficult to deal with, and it is hard to say whether the military masters can be relied on. They could defect to him before, but there is no guarantee that they will not fail this time.

Xiang Liu Chong.

People in Bianliang City are already panicking. Rich families are rushing to Luoyang with their families. Private gatherings of officials in the court are becoming more frequent. Even Feng Dao has rarely come to drink tea with him recently. What makes him most worried

What worries me most is that a secret envoy from the Liao Kingdom has sneaked into Yedu. No one knows whether he went to meet Wang Yin, the military envoy of the Tianxiong Army.

He saw all the turmoil in the Zhou Dynasty, but he could only pretend to know nothing. No matter whether it was a sudden show of weakness or toughness, there was no benefit at all.

At this time, he even regretted that he did not have a chariot to fight in person. As long as the army was in his own hands, what would happen even if Murong Yanchao temporarily occupied Bianliang, but now it was too late, and he could only place all his hopes on Wang Jun.

on the body.

After lunch as usual, Guo Wei fed Bao with fresh winter bamboo shoots and steamed buns. This was the only time he could relax recently.

A Bao is really big, and Guo Wei can no longer hold it. The soft down has long since faded away. It feels as hard as pig hair and looks shiny.

Guo Wei stretched out his hand and stroked Ah Bao's body. Ah Bao suddenly sat up and collapsed the bamboo with a creaking sound. Looking at Guo Wei, he stretched out his plump bear claws to ask for food.

Guo Wei had already stuffed the basket he had prepared into his arms, which contained steamed buns and fresh winter bamboo shoots. Abao took a winter bamboo shoot and chewed it in his mouth, then grabbed the steamed bun and handed it to Guo Wei.

Guo Wei looked startled, then stretched out his hand to take the wotou and laughed: "You silly pig, do you want me to eat it?" He stretched out his hand to rub A Bao's head, "Silly pig is not silly at all, he is more conscientious than people.

Got it!"

Abao was very disrespectful to the emperor and impatiently knocked off his hand and continued eating bamboo shoots. Guo Wei smiled helplessly, "Haha... Okay, I won't disturb you!"

Li Tingfang hurriedly walked into the back cabinet, "Your Majesty is very happy, Jinzhou has won a great victory!"

Guo Wei suddenly stood up, and the stool fell down because he moved too much, "You mean the great victory of Jinzhou? How could it be so fast? Where is the victory report!"

Li Tingfang was stunned for a long time before saying: "There is no good news, but the people outside the palace shouted like this, and the guards at the palace gate went to check. They said that a cavalry was coming to the palace along the imperial street with a car full of Khitan corpses.

Woolen cloth."

"Oh!" Guo Wei frowned and said, "Who is the leader? Call him to the palace!"

Xu Xian forgot one very important thing. The Khitans once occupied Bianliang. Although they did not massacre in Bianliang City, they did a lot of evil. Later, Feng Dao persuaded Yelv Deguang and then withdrew his troops.

After leaving Bianliang City, half of Henan was in trouble.

The people in Henan deeply hate the Khitans, and the people in Bianliang will not have a favorable impression of the Khitans just because there are few dead people. Xu Xian understands the feelings of the people very well, and it doesn't matter if he takes a group of prisoners and lets them kill them.

, but there is really no need to be cruel to a pile of corpses, right?

When Xu Xian entered the palace, he still had chicken feathers on his head and vegetable leaves hanging on his body. These people were probably taking the opportunity to take revenge on the soldiers who robbed them last year. The Red Turbans, which were just established this year, were really unjust.

.

Guo Wei also mocked the embarrassed Xu Xian mercilessly, "Did you go to the vegetable market to fight?"

"Back to Your Majesty, I have just returned from Jinzhou!"

Guo Wei stroked his beard and said: "How is the war in Jinzhou? The winner has not been decided yet. My sworn brother Xiaodujichang will not ask you to do such a good job as reporting victory."

"Your Majesty is wise, Marshal Wang can't wait to kill the minister with his own hands!" Xu Xian immediately told Guo Wei in detail what happened after arriving at Shaanzhou.

Before he could finish speaking, Guo Wei yelled, "You are so brave. Not only do you escape from the battlefield, but you also dare to falsely convey military information. Aren't you afraid that I will chop your head off?"

"Weichen didn't run away from the battle, he just failed to complete the task. He felt it was more necessary to inform His Majesty that the Liao army was preparing to withdraw. Weichen's subordinates were not suspected of falsely spreading military information. It was the soldiers guarding the gate who saw that Weichen had brought

Heaping up the corpses of Liao soldiers, he thought it was a great victory in Jinzhou and shouted loudly, and the people spread the word..."

"What! You said the Khitans are going to retreat!"

"Yes!" Xu Xian explained the obtained information clearly to Guo Wei.

"Oh! It turns out it's snowing in Jinzhou, and the news that the Liao army has withdrawn due to lack of food and grass is 80% true! Haha... God is helping me." Guo Wei waved his fist heavily and felt great, and the long-standing depression was swept away.

null.

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, so he has God's help! The minister has sent the news to Long Jiejun, the vanguard of the army. As long as they can take advantage of the situation to pursue them, they will definitely gain something. The victory of Jinzhou may not be true!"

Guo Wei sat on the bamboo rafter and stroked Ah Bao's back, "You are really bad. Others are working hard at the front, but you come back to claim credit from me."

"It's unjust, I'm not here to claim credit, I'm just trying to save my life!"

"It's not stupid. With the character of my sworn brother, I'm afraid you won't let him go easily if he holds a grudge. It's all your fault for provoking him because of your rudeness in the first place. Remember to show your face less in front of him in the future."

Guo Wei's words were very unethical. When he provoked Wang Jun, he was standing up for him. If he didn't appreciate it, he would just blame himself. No wonder Wang Jun often scolded him for having his conscience eaten by dogs.

The corpses of more than a hundred Khitan people quickly made the subjects of Bianliang City feel at ease. The wealthy people who had gone to Luoyang also moved to Bianliang after hearing the news. This was a great gift from Xu Xian to Guo Wei. In this matter, Guo Wei

He was grateful and did not punish him for leaving the battlefield without permission.

Only Privy Councilor Cheng Wei Renpu always wondered why there was no memorial from Wang Jun to report his victory, and he asked Guo Wei but he would not answer. It was not until half a month later that Wei Renpu received the memorial from Wang Jun reporting his victory. The vanguard of the army, Long Jie's army, caught up with the rear in Fenzhou.

The Northern Han army stabbed Liu Chong severely, killing nearly 3,000 of the enemy, and immediately returned to the court.

By the time the army returned to Bianliang, Xu Xian had already prepared New Year's goods and visited relatives and friends. The Zhao family would definitely be indispensable. Even without Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Hongyin was worthy of his deep friendship.

Judging from the words on the edge of the Yellow River, this "loyal" man really regarded Xu Xian as one of his own, especially now that he had been promoted again and became the commander of the right wing of Long Jie's army, which was already considered a high-ranking official.

He is one of the most powerful men in the Forbidden Army.

She really wanted to finalize the brotherhood with Zhao Hongyin while eating, but Mrs. Du tried her best to prevent her from drinking, saying that she couldn't afford to embarrass him, so Xu Xian had to give up.
