Chapter 630: Sensational Longxing Mansion

All night, there was a fire in the Shenwu Army Camp outside the city, and then there were shouting and killing everywhere. The city had already heard it. But in this dark night, there was no idea what happened outside the city. Although the army guarding the city immediately reported it, the lights of the tall mansions were lit out of the mansions. The nobles were shouted from the warm fox fur warmed the bed, but in the end they could only stare at them.

That night, a *** was stuffed into the crack of the palace gate, and Li Ganshun was also woken up. After seeing the ***, he summoned several ministers overnight.

The candlelight in the warm chalet was Ranran, and everyone didn't say anything. Li Ganshun said: "What happened?"

No one answered, I'm afraid only the Shenwu Army knew what happened. The problem was that the Shenwu Army could not enter, and they could not go out.

Li Ganshun said seriously: "Do you want to issue an order to open the city gate?"

At this time, someone immediately said, "Your Majesty, you must not. At this time, if there are thieves in the city, the Longxing Mansion will never be reborn. The Shenwu Army is one of the five major armies. It will not be able to hold on for a night. No matter what kind of enemy it is, you will have to wait until dawn."

What this person said was not unreasonable. Li Ganshun nodded with a sinister face and could only order the troops to prepare for garrison and wait for dawn.

After dawn, the city gates opened wide, and three thousand cavalry of the Tiger Army rushed out of the city. The leader was Li Wannian, the vassal general. There were many surnames of Li in Xixia, who were just to climb dragons and phoenixes and make money for their own families. After all, the surname Li of the Tang Dynasty was placed there, and the surname Li was Li, so he had some connection with Khan that day, and it was similar to the people of the foreigners who claimed to be Liu hundreds of years ago.

Li Wannian is not a royal family, but a nobleman from Dangxiang. He is extremely cautious. When he left the city, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. All the way, he was corpses, and the blood had frozen. However, the dazzling redness in the ice and snow made people frightened. When he beat the horse forward, there were more and more corpses, and without exception, they were all wearing the armor of the Western Xia imperial guards.

"Where is the enemy? Why don't there even be an enemy's corpse?" Li Wannian immediately asked someone to search the corpse. He went all the way, but there was no one in a strange costume. He took a deep breath and unconsciously arrived at a barracks that turned into ashes. This was the camp of the Shenwu Army. However, at this time, it had been burned to death. How could he identify anything?

Li Wannian was stunned for a moment and ordered: "Search carefully and everyone will cheer up!"

By the time they kept going deeper, the scout had already heard the news and the whole story was found out.

Outside the horizon, teams of tired knights were sitting on horses, under the banners of the Song Dynasty, the Martial Arts School and the various battalions. Under the horse, rows of prisoners were kneeling on the ground, and they dared not come out.

Chen Ao walked back and forth between them, his face was expressionless, he squinted his eyes, and suddenly he stopped and asked a prisoner under the horse, "Do you know me?"

The captives under the horse were about to cry, their teeth kept shaking, as if they had encountered the god of death. They were so scared that their faces were pale and they said in horror: "Penglai County Prince..."

Chen Ao raised his chin slightly and said dissatisfiedly: "Where is my name?"

"Chen...Chen Ao..."

Chen Ao smiled slightly and said, "Just know each other, remember, if you are tired of living or want to take revenge next time, just look for me!" He smiled indifferently, sat high on the horse and looked down at the prisoner and said, "I don't have to worry about the debt."

When Chen Ao approached the prisoner, the prisoner was already scared to death. Thinking of the miserable situation where Li Dan was trampled on by a group of war horses, he did not dare to have any revenge. He cried and said, "Little... the villain dare not."

Chen Ao smiled coldly, went over and said loudly: "Everyone raises his head."

This sentence, in his tone, was said to the prisoners. These Shenwu Army prisoners were all bowing their heads, but Chen Ao's words seemed to have a magical power, which made them tremble in fear, but they all raised their heads.

Chen Ao said, "I remember everything for me, remember what I look like. I will meet you next time and let me walk around the road." After that, he ordered Li Qing behind him, "Let them get out!"

The captives fled as if they were amnesty.

Chen Ao knew that these people would no longer threaten him in the future. The wolves that had lost their spirit were no different from a group of sheep. Letting them out will only promote Chen Ao's horror. Chen Ao didn't mind this terrifying image, just use it to add a gimmick to the Xixia people to scare children's night cry. Chen Ao is very kind and does not charge a naming fee.

The moment the prisoners fled, they saw the rumbling Tiger Force coming. Chen Ao ordered Li Qing behind him. Li Qinghe nodded, rode his horse over, and negotiated with the Tiger Force.

The Tiger Martial Army envoy has not come back to his senses from beginning to end. Why did the Song army clash with the Shenwu Army? Why did the six thousand elite soldiers of the Shenwu Army be killed like this? Where is Li Dan? Where is Li Dan?

Without waiting for him to think too much, Li Qing had already come over, and Li Wannian also rushed over, facing Li Qing, and said straight to the point: "What a courage, is that what you are here to visit?"

Li Qing briefly explained: "The provocation first issued by the Shenwu Army is not justified in the martial arts school. The military envoy should go back and repay him."

This is indeed not something that Li Wannian can make decisions. The only thing he can do is to ask the Huwei Army to be prepared for combat at any time and send people to repay him.

Li Wannian ordered a messenger, and suddenly raised his eyes and said to Li Qing: "Where is Li Dan?"

Li Qing said in disguisely: "Li Dan has been executed."

Li Wannian took a deep breath, but said nothing, and immediately gave orders to the messenger. After the letter, Li Wannian's orders were already going to Longxing Mansion.

The mansion of Yang Zhen, the Minister of Rites Minister, was not far from the imperial city. It was originally the time when Yang Zhen went to court, but it was too much last night and was summoned to the palace overnight. Yang Zhen did not close his eyes all night. At this time, he took a short nap, asked the time, and asked someone to inquire, and then he realized that His Majesty had not yet gotten up in the palace.

Since that's the case, I naturally took a rest. After less than an hour of sleep, I was woken up by a chief officer again.

Yang Zhen knew that there must be something important, so he cheered up and asked someone to make a pot of tea, sifted a cup to drink, and then said calmly: "What happened?"

The head whispered: "Master, what happened last night was found out. It was the Shenwu Army who offended the Song army in the suburbs of the city. The Song army took revenge. Last night, the Song army killed more than 3,000 Shenwu Army soldiers, and even Li Dan was killed." He lowered his voice, with a little trembling in his voice, and continued: "It is said that he was trampled to death by hundreds of horses, and there was no intact bone on his body."

A horse collapses and dies, which is not as comfortable as cutting into pieces. A person's bones are cut off by a trampling, and he will not die immediately. If he tramples repeatedly, the bones on his body will be filled with heart-wrenching pain. You can imagine the pain before death.

Yang Zhen was stunned for a moment, put down the teacup in his hand, and asked uncertainly: "It's true?"

The head of the official said: "There is absolutely nothing wrong. The soldiers of the Shenwu Army who fled into the city are all in this way."

Yang Zhen said suspiciously: "How much damage did the Song army hurt?"

The head smiled bitterly and said, "There must be some minor injuries, but no one was killed."

Yang Zhen took a deep breath and said, "This matter is too strange and too incredible. If a thousand Song people want to defeat the six thousand Western Xia imperial guards, even the Jin people may not be able to do it." After a moment of silence, he said, "What is it for? Then Chen Ao must put Li Dan to death?"

The head of the official said: "It was said that a captain of the Song army died, but was killed by the stone cannon of the Shenwu Army. Chen Ao asked someone to negotiate, but Li Dan said some crazy words."

Yang Zhen sighed and said, "Just for this? Then, does the captain of the Song army have anything to do with Shen Ao?" After that, he shook his head, not knowing what he felt sorry for.

It was at this time that someone came over the gatehouse and said, "Mr. Zhu, Minister of War, arrived."

Yang Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "It must be for the sake of the awesome thing, please invite him in."

After a while, a slightly younger red-clothed official came in. Zhu Lu, the Minister of War, was still Yang Zhen's disciple. After coming in, he saluted Yang Zhen, then sat down and said, "Mr. Enfu, the Ministry of War has received the news. Chen Ao is too insignificant. Haven't he already agreed to him? Why did he stab the sky at this time? The Lord. Enfu is afraid that he would misread him. This person is just a reckless man and does not make plans for each other."

Yang Zhen glanced at Zhu Lu quietly and said, "He is definitely not a reckless person!"

This sentence was finalized, which made Zhu Lu not even more difficult to say. Zhu Lu hesitated for a moment and said, "When King Yue knew this news, he might not be sure to laugh. The Ministry of War has turned the world upside down, and the foreign officials are all excited. It seems that this matter cannot be suppressed. Now the palace is afraid that we will be summoned soon, and this is the matter to be discussed." Zhu Lu lowered his voice and continued, "No one can guarantee that Your Majesty will not expel Chen Ao in order to appease the foreign officials."

Yang Zhen smiled faintly and said, "It is still light to expel. After killing so many people, there is also a sect king. Even if he cut off his head, it is not impossible."

Zhu Lu had actually wanted to say Yang Zhen's words for a long time, but it was hard to say it, so he nodded and said, "Anyway, this prince consort is gone. Should the Lord Enfu cut off his robe and ignore Chen Ao? Fortunately, we only had a little contact with Chen Ao. If we fell too deeply, I am afraid that even the Lord Enfu would be implicated by him."

Yang Zhen closed his eyes and thought deeply, and after a long time, he said, "No, I have asked people to inquire from many sources. Although he is impulsive in doing things, he is often not reckless. In the Song Dynasty, because of this, countless people suffered his losses. If he dares to do this, he will definitely rely on something and will have a backup plan."

Zhu Lu frowned and said, "What can I do to get a backup plan? With such a great sin, what can I do to keep him safe?"

Yang Zhen smiled faintly and said, "You and I will watch it now. Whether this person is worth advancing and retreating together depends on his methods today."

Zhu Luhe nodded, changed into a relaxed look, and smiled and said, "Mr. Enfu is right. Now we are only watching the fire from the other side of the river. Let's take a look at the awesomeness first."

Yang Zhen said: "There is no need to watch the fire from the other side of the river. The Ministry of War should be fully prepared. Those who need to be paid should be paid, and those who need to be closed should be closed. You can do some work here."

Zhu Lu was stunned for a moment and said, "Please give me advice from Lord Enfu."

Yang Zhen said with a smile: "What are the five armies?"

Zhu Lu blurted out: "Of course, it is the elite of my Daxia. It is not allowed to protect the safety of the capital...." Zhu Lu immediately woke up and said: "It is not allowed to be mistaken, but the dignified Shenwu Army was defeated by a thousand Song army overnight. None of the Song army was injured or killed. How good can the other four armies be? Those foreign officials have always claimed to be brave and have mastered the five armies, which is arrogant. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Ministry of War can submit a memorial." He shook his head and said: "In order to protect the capital, the five armies are no longer useful. It is better to train a new army. This new army is naturally controlled by the Ministry of War. Lord Enfu, what the students said is right?"

Yang Zhen shook his head and said, "You are smart, but you are too embarrassed in many cases. If you fail to build a new army, once a military army is formed, the foreign officials must intervene. In the end, they will become six armies and seven armies?" He was silent for a moment, and Zhang Mou said, "If you want to build a Xixia Martial Arts School, follow the example of the Song Dynasty and recruit scholars to school!"

Zhu Lu was stunned for a moment, then clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful, Chen Ao's team of people are the captains of the Martial Arts School. The combat power is amazing. With this battle, we have given us accusations. Since the five armies are not good, we can follow the example of the Song Dynasty and build the Martial Arts School. In addition, only recruiting scholars to school, foreign officials have great abilities and cannot intervene. We scholars can govern the country, so can't follow the martial arts school? Scholars follow the martial arts school, or scholars."

Yang Zhen smiled faintly and said, "So, you, the Minister of War, have the heaviest burden. Let's ignore Chen Ao. Let's take advantage of the trouble that happened last night and make a memorial to build momentum. The rest depends on Chen Ao's fortune."
