    Chapter 32 Ma Xuanzan¡¤Western Army (1) At the Song Army camp, everyone was looking up at Xiao Yan on the tower. When they saw him breaking the arrow fiercely, a huge cheer suddenly broke out!  Xiao Yan¡¯s last words were so heart-breaking that they pierced Yelu Dashi¡¯s heart!  Xiao Yan boasted, but he never took it seriously. The outcome of this war between Song and Liao was decided here.  Yelu Dashi led his army directly to the front of the Song camp, but the Song people did not dare to leave the camp. This is proof.  By showing off his power before the Song army, all his goals were achieved. The more Xiao Yan insisted on his words, the more humiliating he would be in this situation.  But this envoy from the Song Dynasty actually talked about the inside story of the current small court of Liao Kingdom!  All kinds of things were as if he had seen them with his own eyes. I really don¡¯t know how much inside information he learned while operating in Liao people¡¯s territory!  This is the deepest thorn in his heart!  He was livid and wanted to refute, but had nothing to say.  In the end, he just waved his hand fiercely: "I am waiting for you in Yanjing!" As soon as he said these words, Yelu Dashi knew something was wrong. Didn't he admit that the Song army would attack Yanjing?  But the knight beside him shouted out his words without any pause!  At this time and place, Yelu Dashi no longer had the mood to continue humiliating the Song people's prestige. He picked up the horse with a cold face and retreated towards the formation.  The drums and horns of the Liao army were whimpering, but this was the order to retreat.  The large group of men and horses still retreated solemnly, and their military appearance was not even half reduced from before.  But the intention of showing off one's strength was gone.  On the opposite side of the Song Army camp, there were only cheers and whistles, and some people stood on the wooden fence of the camp wall and gestured in this direction.  Compared to the oppression of the Liao army just now, everyone looked pale and silent, it was really a far cry from the situation!  Yang Keshi just put his arms around Xiao Yan's shoulders and smiled so hard that he couldn't see his eyesight: "Xiao Xuanzan, you are really good at it! Let's go back to Xiongzhou, have a good meal as a mother-in-law, and support Xuanzan!"  It was an injury, but his bones were creaking from being hugged by this rough man. He struggled to look around, and his eyes met Yue Fei's.  In this situation, there is no room for Yue Fei, a young general, to speak.  He stood silently.  Looking at Xiao Yan at this time, Yue Fei smiled slightly and cast his eyes to the infinite distance to the north.  The man's career is over there In the Liao army camp, Xiao Qian, the king of the Fourth Army, did not go out with Yelu Dashi. He was just on the watchtower in his camp, tightly wrapped in his cloak, watching everything in front of him.  The expression on his face remained motionless until Xiao Yan talked about him, and then the muscles on his face jumped slightly.  Seeing Yelu Dashi's order to retreat, Xiao Qiancai smiled faintly: "This southerner is interesting" He also raised his eyes and turned north: "This Daliao is really hopeless? But what is the way out?"  Hejian Mansion is already a military city.  This important town on Hebei West Road is almost as far from Xiongzhou as it is from Xiongzhou to Zhuozhou.  Tong Guan retreated in one breath, followed by tens of thousands of Liu Yanqing's soldiers.  Suddenly, Hejian Mansion was in a state of panic.  The transfer envoys from both sides of Hebei Province gathered in Hejian Mansion to fully supply the defeated army.  When the army was victorious, it was easier to maintain some discipline, but after a rout, if even one of them was short of supplies, I'm afraid the Hejian Mansion would be shattered!  In the city, there were soldiers from the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty wearing soft hats everywhere. They ordered the houses of the people and divided them into different places in a mess.  The streets and alleys are full of soldiers who have lost their restraints.  Those who play money play for money, those who are lazy are lazy, steal the cattle and donkeys used for transporting food and wages, turn them over on the spot, cut off the four legs and then go to chew them, leaving only the common people guarding the carcasses of the animals and crying.  You can hear the accents of Shaanxi Zhulu everywhere: "This is a very birdy place in Hebei. If you offend the Sa family, you will be happier if you turn to Shaanxi Zhulu than under Xuanshuai, a bird!"  , only here, there is still a little order.  The tall officers and soldiers of the victorious army were arranged on all sides, keeping a close watch on the surrounding area. No random people were allowed to collide with each other.  When the soldiers of the Western Army passed by, they all pointed at the magistrate's office and cursed: "I have been a soldier all my life and have seen several battles. I have never suffered such a miserable defeat! In the sixteen states of Yanyun, the officials want it, the commander-in-chief wants it, and the princes want it."  , but we don¡¯t want it!¡± In the streets, a small group of knights was galloping past.  The first knight was holding a green tooth flag, which was the flag of the Xuan Shuai Yamen Office.  These knights are all dressed in plain hair, wearing brocade robes and rhinoceros belts. Everyone is a carefully selected grown-up man.  They were the victorious soldiers carefully selected by Commander Tong Guantong.  Seeing these victorious soldiers passing by like the wind, the Yanqing soldiers on the road ran away one after another, cursing in a low voice behind them: "We have forgotten the roots of the Western Army, and we will be treated like dogs by those who have no eggs.  Let's see how you end up!" After scolding the Shengjie Army, some people naturally began to complain about their commander-in-chief, Mr. Liu.I was so confused that I took a trip to Jiangnan and forgot the basics!  How could we suffer such a big loss if we followed the old and new species to advance and retreat together?  When the time comes, the officials will blame him, and Xuan Shuai has someone in Bianliang, but it is our great Xianggong Liu who will take the blame!  " Several knights from the Shengjie Army were surrounded by a heroic young man who was less than thirty years old. He was also wearing a brocade robe and a jade belt. He wore a flower-sprinkled turban and had a dusty look on his face. After listening to the complaints of the soldiers on the street,  His ears were silent, and he could only smile slightly. This person was exactly what Xiao Yan called Ma Xuanzan, Ma Kuo, the real envoy of the Song Dynasty between the Liao Kingdom and the Jurchens.  The person who left a deep trace in history was not Xiao Yan, but this Ma Kuo. He was also from the Western Army, and his military origin was in Xihe. He and his father were two generations of loyal soldiers.  , one uncle, two uncles, and two brothers died in the continuous wars against Xixia and the Qiang of Qing and Tang Dynasties. He served in the Xihe Army, but he surrendered to Qing Dynasty by riding alone.  When Tang Qiang Zang conquered his brother's army and became famous, he was on a business trip in Qingzhou and was recommended by others. He became an envoy immediately and became involved in the Three Kingdoms of the Song Dynasty and Liao Dynasty.  In the turmoil of the end of the world, Ma Kao was undoubtedly eager to conquer the Sixteenth State of Yanyun. Who among the ambitious soldiers of the Song Dynasty would not want to make such a great contribution?  Yan Aguda also loved him very much and affectionately called him Yeli Mali, which means a person who is good at shooting in Jurchen language. When Tong Guan organized the Xuan Shuai Yamen, he naturally wanted to use Ma Kuo's background.  The Western Army knew the inner story of the Jurchens in the Liao Kingdom, so Tong Guan acted like a polite corporal and obeyed his advice.  However, he became an alien in the eyes of the old Western Army. When the Song Army was defeated in Baigouhe, he was on a mission to Yanjing, Liao State, announcing the rapid surrender of the Northern Liao Dynasty. He never expected that the Old Western Army would surrender at Baigouhe.  Little effort was made in this battle, and Liu Yanqing's divided Western Army was vulnerable. The 150,000-strong army was defeated miserably! Tong Guan was so courageous that he retreated to Xiongzhou and then to Hejian Prefecture.  Jing rushed back, and Yelu Dashi politely sent him back to the Song army's front. When Ma Kuo returned to Hejian Mansion, he took Tong Guan's orders and ran around, contacting the commanders of the Western Army to discuss how to save it.  How to deal with the situation. The Western Army's various routes were divided into various places. Although they agreed to come to Hejian Mansion for a while, Tong Guantong announced the commander's command, but everyone's indifference made Ma Kuo see that the old Western Army's various routes  The commander-in-chief has made up his mind to watch the joke come to the end. Anyway, Tong Guan is the commander-in-chief of this Northern Expedition, not them!  To replace Lao Zhongxiangong and establish a victorious army to poach the elite and brave warriors of the Western Army, it is already deeply disgusting. The centuries-old foundation of the Western Army's generals has long been intertwined. How can we let people start this war to restore the Sixteen States of Yanyun?  , why did it become like this! The Han family lost this high-rise place, and the heart of the Central Plains has been open for hundreds of years. He has been to Jurchen and knows how powerful these barbarians are in Haidong!  If the Sixteen States of Yanyun were not in their hands, then even if the Song Dynasty asked for the story of the Chanyuan Alliance, they would not get it!  ¡°Could it be that the Song Dynasty has really grown old after a hundred years?  Do you want to end up with the Liao Kingdom that has been entangled for more than a hundred years?  Along the way, these thoughts appeared in Ma Kuo's mind from time to time, but he quickly suppressed them, not daring to think deeply.  After running around for several days, he finally saw all the envoys. Everyone agreed to go to Hejian Mansion in five days at the invitation of Commander-in-Chief Xuan to discuss future plans. He had completed his task, so he hurried back to deliver the order.  He was really tired of doing this praise painting of the Xuan Commander's Mansion. He would rather go back to the army and kill it with one sword and one gun!  Ma Kuo was thinking deeply about his thoughts. Their small group had already arrived in front of the Xuan Shuai Mansion.  Still far away from the government office, the officer on duty shouted to stop.  The knight first showed off the tooth flag he was holding: "Ma Xuanzan returned to the post to pay the order!" The officer on duty stepped forward and carefully inspected the tooth flag token, and then smiled and said: "Ma Xuanzan, dismount and go in. Commander Xuan just sent the messenger out to look for you.  One ride was not enough, so I sent seven or eight riders out in succession! But I didn¡¯t expect Xuan Zan to come back so quickly! It¡¯s hard work for Xuan Zan to go to several places!¡± Ma Kuo felt nervous, Tong Guanming knew he was going to the West.  He contacted the various commanders of the army, but he sent so many people out to look for him in a hurry. He didn't know what happened ahead!  Could it be that the Jurchens did not abide by their oath and went south in advance?  He thrust the reins into the hands of the young officer on duty: "Send someone to send a message, I'm going to see Commander Xuan right now!" The officer on duty waved his hand, and someone had already rushed inside and came out from the door.In the inner hall, the news was passed on like a relay.  Ma Kai straightened his clothes and strode inside.  Xuan Shuai's office is heavily guarded all the way. Even if you want to expand your identity like a horse, you have to check your waistband along the way.  However, when he walked to the gate of the government office, he saw two confidants beside Tong Guan, Yu Hou, rushing out: "Commander Xuan has an order, no need to pass the notice, no need to inspect, please Ma Xuanzan to meet you in the festival hall!" Ma  Kuan's heart tightened again, but he just followed the two Yu Hous all the way through the door.  Outside the festival hall, I saw Tong Guanxuan's banner moving in front of the festival hall. In front of the festival hall, soldiers of the victorious army in armor lined up on both sides, standing far away.  Everyone stood with axes and swords in their hands, and the atmosphere of killing filled the courtyard steps.  It was as if the defeat of Baigou had never happened, and the Western Army led by Tong Guan was not in disarray.  In the festival hall, there was still the commander-in-chief of 150,000 elite troops. The official sent him to Bianliang in person. He was ambitious and went north to conquer Liao Dynasty, Grand Master Xuan Shuai Tong Guan!  An officer of the Shengjie Army stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and asked Ma Kuo to take off the sword from his waist.  Just as Ma Kuo stretched out his hand to untie the ring, he heard a loud shout from inside the festival hall: "Don't delay! Please come forward quickly!" The tone was like a loud bell, buzzing from inside the festival hall.  The officer sternly bowed and got out of the way.  Ma Kuo's heart was raised even higher. Tong Guan was the most important person in pomp and circumstance. Now that he was so anxious, he really didn't know what was going on!  Holding the sword on his waist, he hurriedly ran up the steps.  In the bright room outside the festival hall is a porch, with a white tiger screen in the middle.  Go around the screen and enter the main hall.  Above the main hall, a tall man wearing a brocade gown, a black gauze headdress, and a jade belt around his waist was walking around with his hands behind his back.  This man was in his fifties, with dark complexion, strong muscles and bones as strong as iron, and a few beards here and there. He looked indescribably weird.  A pair of triangular eyes were facing Ma Kuo's approaching figure, shining brightly.  But it was Tong Guan, the famous eunuch who had been in charge of the actual military power of the Song Dynasty for twenty years!  Tong Guan's eyes flickered as he just looked at Ma Kuo, who was bowing respectfully before the meeting, and said coldly: "Ma Xuanzan, I didn't expect that you also arranged for someone to talk to Jianguo Pharmacist! But he didn't know that this  For whom did Ma Xuanzan prepare this great achievement?¡±
