    Chapter 37: Awe of Power and Virtue But Tong Guan raised his hand: "I want to say it! Why can't I say it? Xiao Xuanzan risked his life to give me such a great gift as Tong Guan. Why can't I tell Xiao Xuanzan about the circumstances before and after?  Are you clear? We must treat Xiao Xuanzan with sincerity! Recovering Yanyun is a life-and-death job, with Xu Dafugui on the one hand and his life on the other! How can we let Xiao Xuanzan not be honest?  Are you going to live and die together with me?" Zhao Liangsi took a bite from him, but retreated dejectedly.  Tong Guan strode back and forth in front of Xiao Yan. He seemed to have infinite resentment in his chest. He just continued speaking loudly: "I claimed to have an army of 150,000 for the Northern Expedition. How could I know that in fact, hundreds of thousands are not enough?"  ? Liu Yanqing's troops were transferred from the south of the Yangtze River. During the Fang La period, there was a miasma in the south, and the number of troops was reduced a lot.  The remaining 50% to 60% of the team must be filled by recruiting brave warriors from Hebei. How can we recruit soldiers without training? The two parts of the Western Army have been separated for more than a year, and they have to train together for a long time before they can use their hands like an arm.  , echoing each other. The Prime Minister of the court is just urging him to move north quickly. This army moves forward without making a plan. How can a strong man be invincible without any hesitation? " He got louder and louder, but Xiao Yan just bowed.  Listening on the sidelines.  But my heart gradually sank.  If the Tong Guan in front of him made him intimidated, he felt secretly happy in his heart.  Now Tong Guan acts like he's an old friend at first sight, and talks heartfelt words to win over people's hearts, but it's a bad sign!  He secretly looked at Ma Kuo, but Ma Kuo remained calm.  He just looked down at his toes.  Tong Guan was still there, showing his old Qiu Ba posture vividly, looking like a rough boss who was easy to serve.  "We took over the battle at Baigouhe and were defeated like this! Some of the husband-in-laws of the Western Army had to shirk it, but I didn't have to shirk it! The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun were not in a hurry to get it. Anyway, they were from the Western Army.  The army cannot be changed to the Yanyun Army in the future. But I have issued a military order in front of the official! Now I am in Hejian Mansion, and no one is willing to work hard to advance, and it is even more impossible to retreat.  "Zan, but you know how much help you gave me, Tong Guan, when you came here?" When he said the last sentence, Tong Guan turned around and looked at Xiao Yan with bright eyes.  Xiao Yan also took a deep breath in his heart, he's coming!  In today's summons, I met with such a big shot, Tong Guan, and Tong Guan behaved so abnormally - well, I actually don't know what Tong Guan should be like to be normal, but in short, everything seems weird!  "I don't dare to take credit!" Since Tong Guandu had called him to praise him, it was a certainty that his identity had been cleared. Xiao Yan was quick to change his title, but he was honest and polite.  It doesn¡¯t matter what the show is next, let¡¯s get the benefits first.  Hearing Xiao Yan¡¯s change of title, there was an almost indiscernible sneer in Tong Guan¡¯s eyes.  However, he still strode over and began to pat Xiao Yan's shoulder vigorously: "Once Medicine Master Guo really pulls the flag and returns to the south, those ministers of the Western Army will no longer have an excuse to wait and see, they can only move forward with all their might!"  Do you know what a great contribution it is? Compared to seeing the sun through the clouds in front of me, Tong Guan firmly grabbed Xiao Yan's shoulders, with a sincere expression on his face.  Next to them, Zhao Liangsi and Ma Kuo also bowed in time: "I would like to congratulate you, Commander-in-Chief!" Xiao Yan's heart was high, but his face showed the same expression of gratitude to the core of fear, but with this damn eunuch  Looking at each other affectionately.  "Why is it so difficult for the Xuanhuai Palace to praise the painting? It's just a matter of a letter! Xiao Xuanzan called himself a doctor in the Ministry of War in front of Pharmacist Guo. However, he changed from a seventh-grade official position with a green robe to a scarlet robe.  Why is it so difficult? If you can really surrender Yaoshi Guo, and Yan Yun can be restored to my hands, it will be nothing more than a trivial matter! Now I will make sure for Xiao Xuanzan that you will be the commander-in-chief of the Zuo Department of the Song Dynasty.  Sign the seal of approval and declare that he is already a minister of the Song Dynasty!" Tong Guan finally said the good thing. Xiao Yan knew that the only choice left to him at this time was to express his loyalty.  He immediately threw away Tong Guan's hand and paid homage with a plop: "How can I be among the scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty when I fled from Yan? I feel so ashamed. As for the tears! But I hate being the Song Dynasty and doing too little for the Xuan Commander!"  Commander Xuan has given orders, and his subordinates must obey and die!" He spoke impassionedly, but he was beating a drum in his heart.  This Tong Guan, what kind of questions are you going to give me to do?  Tong Guan just looked at Xiao Yanxing with a sullen face as he went down to the ceremony. When he finished speaking, he helped Xiao Yan up again and said in a deep voice: "The surrender of Pharmacist Guo is the key to reversing the Northern Expedition! Everything will be done here!"  But I have too many constraints now Three days later, all the ministers of the Western Army will come to me to discuss the military affairs. If I will accept Yao Shi Guo's request to surrender, and go north again to make arrangements, it will be a big article, and all aspects will be planned.  Yes, with those people who are bargaining with each other and mobilizing troops.We have gathered our troops and horses to march north, but we don¡¯t know when!  If you miss the opportunity, I'm afraid you won't come back again!  " He looked at Xiao Yan intently and slowly said word by word: "Xiao Xuanzan, I just ask you, do you dare to stand with me in the military discussion as a patron of the painting of Xuan Shuai's office?  Issued a military order, rode northward alone, and single-handedly prompted Pharmacist Guo to surrender?  You have issued a military order by yourself. There is no need for the Western Army's ministers to deploy troops and horses to cooperate, and they have no way to stop it I can also send you some troops privately to cooperate with the declaration!  Once Pharmacist Guo raises his flag in Zhuozhou, let's see what those Western Army ministers have to say!  When the time comes, I will definitely command the army and go north to support Xuanzan and revive Yan's plan. This first achievement is Xiao Xuanzan's!  When the time comes, it¡¯s time to be knighted!  "This is the commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty" Tong Guan was so courageous that he did not even dare to bear this responsibility! Think about it. In real history, two months later, Yelu Dashi watched Yelu Dashi in the Northern Liao court.  Completely losing power, Wang Zhen and Yang Keshi advanced across the Baigou River. Guo Yaoshi almost spontaneously rebelled and Tong Guan was in the middle. He didn't even make much effort. He was eager to fight at the Baigou River!  He was pushing the responsibility for failure everywhere. If Guo Yaoshi failed to surrender, would he be willing to bear this responsibility? But he was reluctant to bear the huge temptation of changing the strategic situation of the Northern Expedition once Guo Yaoshi surrendered.  He, an insignificant fugitive, was given the title of a military order, but Tong Guan denounced it as absurd, while reluctantly agreeing to let him ride alone to let Guo Yaoshi really take the lead in Nantou  Of course it was an unexpected surprise, but if it didn't it would just be an escape in an insignificant Yandi Could it be that Tong Guan, who had been in charge of the army for so long, couldn't see what a huge opportunity he brought for a comeback because he was afraid of it again?  Failed, so why did you come up with this idea? Tong Guan had been in charge of the army for twenty years. During the large and small battles in which he bullied the Qiang of the Qing and Tang dynasties and expanded the territory for thousands of miles, he had always used the strong to bully the weak, and he had never suffered any big hardships, so no one noticed it.  The fundamental flaw in his command of the army was his timidity! In history, when conquering the Qiang of the Qing and Tang Dynasties, Tong Guan and Qiao Zhao bravely marched in. However, the disastrous defeat of Baigouhe made this dead eunuch.  Finally, his true colors were revealed. Not only did the Northern Expedition turn into a joke, but he never had effective command again. Later, when the Jurchens went south, Song Huizong asked him to command the army to resist in Hedong, but he abandoned the army.  He fled back to Bianliang with a tone! "A dead eunuch is a dead eunuch. Even if he has a beard, pretends to be bold, and swears, he is still the same. He is born with a sinister nature and lacks yang energy!" That's all Xiao Yan thought of at this time.  I only smiled bitterly in my heart. I thought that risking thousands of lives to return to the Song Dynasty would be easier I didn't expect that the matter of Medical Master Guo would still fall on me!  Okay, if it fails, I will either continue to wander around the world with a small bag on my back, or I will have to be the scapegoat for this dead eunuch "Forget it, anyway, in history, Pharmacist Guo's surrender went very smoothly, it's a big deal."  Liao couldn't stop him in the slightest. Isn't what he wanted to do to change the war? Now that the man has chosen a path, he can just go onand it doesn't seem to be much risk  If you succeed, you will be able to settle down in this era! Maybe you will be able to do something better than in the previous life! And this war will really change in your hands! Xiao Yan took a deep breath and faced Tong Guan's earnest words!  Looking at him, he crossed his arms and bowed, "Why don't you dare?  " In the dark of night, Xiao Yan and Ma Kuo rode side by side, just walking through the streets of Hejian Mansion. Dozens of knights silently guarded them. There were fires burning everywhere in the streets and alleys, but in the west  The soldiers were on duty. Some even took the cooking pot to the entrance of the alley and started cooking. The soldiers wearing felt hats were no longer in line, and only the sound of high and low laughter could be heard.  , the houses of the people were closed, there were no lights, and the firelight cast the shadows of the trees all around, casting them on the lifeless houses. Except for these scattered Western Army soldiers, Hejian Mansion looked like a dead city at night.  Tang didn't say anything, and took Tong Guan's order to send Xiao Yan back to his temporary residence in Hejian Mansion. Xiao Yan didn't care at all, and just looked around to take a look at the scenery of the Song Dynasty.  If there was no war, what kind of prosperous scene would this place be like? Ma Kuo suddenly said in a low voice: "Brother Xiao" Xiao Yan seemed to know what he wanted to say, and raised his hand with a smile: "Brother Ma, I am now  Already Song Chen??, it is natural to contribute to the Song Dynasty.  Ma Kuo looked at him: "Brother Xiao, are you sure?"  " Xiao Yan smiled and said: "A man is worthy of this. He can only work hard to move forward. What kind of confidence can he have?  I only have one thought: I can no longer take responsibility lightly in this life, and I have to make something of my career no matter what!  "Ma Kuo took a deep breath, nodded, and stopped talking. "What a great opportunity" In the festival hall, Tong Guan put his hands behind his hands and let out a long sigh. After Xiao Yan left, he was here  Walking around in the festival hall, the rough look had long since disappeared. Zhao Liangsi was waiting beside him, saying in a low voice: "Commander Xuan, the opportunity is good, but Xuan."  Shuai can't bear another defeat Yelu Dashi has not left yet. If we rush north to meet Guo Yaoshi, what will happen if we suffer another defeat?  What should the DPRK say about Commander-in-Chief Xuan?  Besides, Yelu Dashi's sudden retreat to the north might have discovered Yaoshi Guo's movements!  " Tong Guan was just silent, and finally gave a wry smile: "Let's use this Xiao Yan to support him for a while There is something easy to write in the report" Zhao Liangsi's expression was colder and lower than Tong Guan's.  He said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for long!  Pharmacist Guo is afraid that he will be decapitated, and beheading Xiao Yan will be just a perfunctory move Commander Xuan wants to completely overturn this situation, so he can only borrow Jurchen troops to let them go south!  When the time comes, buy Yanjing City back from the Jurchens!  " Tong Guan shuddered and remained silent for a long time. In the end, he just gritted his teeth and said, "Baigouhe was defeated, and all the turtles and bastards came out!  The husband's prime minister is also attacking a certain family. If a certain family falls, the deputy envoy of Xuanfu and the husband's son will also fall.  Who knew that father and son were so incompatible with each other?  In the eighties, I still wanted to make a comeback, but my son blocked my path to comeback and let a certain family get caught in the middle!  The others, Wang Zhou, Liang Shicheng, and the one who kicked him so hard were watching the joke, and a certain family stepped on their tail when they saw that they were crowned kings!  After a defeated battle, I found myself surrounded by people who were betrayed and separated from their relatives!  After all, you are the only one who is still loyal and advising a certain family!  " Zhao Liangsi looked touched and before he could say anything, Tong Guan turned around and patted him on the shoulder: "We southerners are too narrow-minded At this time, we are not as honest as you northerners!  The fugitive named Xiao is also a talented person He has courage, wisdom, and literary talent. After a lot of dealing with it, he is actually flawless and he dares to go into battle to fight!  It's a pity that he came a step later than you Otherwise, how could I not reuse him?  Now it is a pity Shen Zhenzhen, you have started to carry out the Jurchen affairs. Everything is your responsibility. You only want Yanjing City, no matter how you get it!  "
