Song Jiu first arranged the two hundred river cavalry to the military camp and rode to the imperial city quickly. He agreed to go back and forth for two months, but after going down, it was unlimitedly delayed, and it took more than three months to go. When he left, the snow was everywhere, and when he came, the spring was blooming. The little girls who loved beauty began to wear thin spring shirts and showed their graceful figures in the warm spring breeze.

The spring is bright, but I don’t know how many things I have delayed at home, so I have to wait for him to deal with it.

Song Jiu quickly went to the Secretariat to hand over the seal talismans first, and I don’t know what to say about the two hundred Sichuan cavalry. This can only be explained clearly when you meet Zhao Kuangyin, but the emperor is not that easy to see. He is not qualified to see him.

The little official looked at the seal talisman and asked in surprise: "You are Song Jiulang."

"yes."

"Song Jiulang, amazing."

"ah."

"You are so amazing," the little official looked at Song Jiu with admiration.

"What happened?"

"Jiulang, the story of your going west to Bashu has been changed to jokes and sung in the capital."

"What's the matter?"

Several minor officials gathered together and asked Song Jiu in a verbal way, asking him about the night battle between Niu Zhishui and the alliance between the Five Armies.

"Does the capital know?"

"I understand. All the troops were shot dead. Two Sichuans were victorious. The army wrote memorials to the capital, and many people praised you."

"Jiulang, you are so good. Those fierce generals actually let you restrain each other with a bet. I'm convinced."

"You can be both literary and military. No wonder you become a student of the Sihu military service when you get to Bashu."

"Even Mr. Zhao praised you, saying that many officials below are not as good as one Xiao Song Jiu, which is disappointing."

Everyone was talking and talking. Song Jiu finally heard some of his mistakes. After the Guankou Village was broken, Wang Quanbin quickly led his troops to attack Jintang with several other troops. Quan Shixiong began to resist stubbornly, but under the arrangement of Lu Yuqing, all the surrendered prisoners were sent home one after another. At this point, the Song army was in trouble, and Quan Shixiong's subordinates were in trouble. Several troops and horses were united to launch a general attack. Quan Shixiong was defeated. Many rebel soldiers saw that the situation was not good, and they surrendered one after another. Quan Shixiong committed suicide in grief and anger. Only a few people fled to Tongshan, but the main force of Quan Shixiong was destroyed, and the remaining ones, including Wang Keliao and Lu Jia, were not worth worrying.

And the three covenants were immediately effective.

Five armies attacked the entire Shixiong together, and they also wanted to guard against Wang Keliao and Lu Han. The troops in each state were weak. Du Chengbao of Yuzhou led the rebels and refugees to besiege Yuzhou City. The judge Bian Zhen was from Yizhou. Seeing that the court had changed its original intention, he treated the people and refugees well, and fought hard to fight to the death. However, he was hit by the trap and could not stand in the army. Most of the soldiers in the prefecture were seriously injured and fled at night. The governor Chen Shouxi and the Tongzong family surrendered. Only Bian Zhen did not surrender. Du Chengbao sent people to persuade Bian Zhen, we are all the people of Bashu, and we should resist the Song Dynasty together. Bian Zhen beheaded his envoy. He also secretly sent people to persuade Chen Zhang, the leader of the rebel party, to express his misfortune and blessings.

At this time, Yizhou began to send prisoners of war home continuously. The stone tablet was erected outside the city, and the entire Shixiong was defeated again. The army was not able to move forward for the time being. But the general situation was very unfavorable. Chen Zhang agreed to surrender to the Song Dynasty. Taking advantage of Du Chengbao's unpreparedness, he ambushed the troops and attacked him. Bian Zhen was injured and Chen Shouxi followed suit. Du Chengbao was defeated and the remaining troops quickly fought for pacification.

It can be said that Song Jiu used his life bet to blow up a sunny white cloud in the hazy sky of Bashu.

This credit may not be seen, but it can be felt in reality.

Two deeds of Song Jiu, one of the protagonists, quickly spread in the capital, but they were not very good. It was even said that Song Jiu personally took the battle and killed five people, like a god. He scared the Song army, who were all guilty in Feimeng camp, knelt down and begged for mercy.

Song Jiu sighed in his heart. From the perspective of the people, the damn war would have to end soon. However, after going down to read it, Lu Han was looking for death, but Quan Shixiong was a hero.

He bowed and said, "Everyone, don't talk about it. It's not like that. That night, before I was fighting, my teeth started to bump into my body and my body was trembling. Let's hand it over for me."

The two minor officials handed over for him, just to make a record, then check the sealing talismans, record the archive, seal the sealing talismans, and handed over. The handed over was completed. This was very fast. Song Jiu was about to see Zhao Kuangyin and talk about the two hundred Sichuan cavalry. Xiaohuangmen came in and said, "Song Jiu, Your Majesty, you are pleased to see you."

He couldn't find anything, so he followed the little yellow gate into the inner palace.

After meeting Zhao Kuangyin, he told him what he saw and heard along the way, including some brutal acts of the Song army and the intrigues of various generals. This is a fact, and there is no need to hide it. Finally, he said: "In the opinion of a humble minister, General Cao may not be as good as General Wang in terms of military capabilities."

During those days, the generals discussed and heard some military knowledge. The war preparation process was very long, but the fight was very fast. If it was a fierce battle for four or five hours, it would be a fierce battle, and the deaths of both sides would be heavy. Song Jiu still didn't understand much. Until Guankou Village, 15,000 Song troops rushed into the village, and Wang Quanbin was fighting and commanding.

The battle was also fast, but more than 10,000 troops, even if there were more than 10,000 prisoners of war, it was still a big area. Lu Yuqing spoke on it, and it took a long time to pass the message to the back. What would happen if more than 10,000 Song troops dispersed? However, from the beginning to the end, Wang Quanbin was well-organized.

Song Jiu had to admit that Wang Quanbin had outstanding command ability and was not afraid of death. Although Cao Bin might be a good general, if the Battle of Gao Liang River in his memory was true, putting aside other factors, Cao Bin might not be as good as Wang Quanbin when he fought.

Although he was dissatisfied with Wang Quanbin, his evaluation was still fair, and he said, "But later, General Wang was defeated repeatedly, but in the previous battle of Guankou Village, he was still taken with the help of General Cao's great victory. I think the reason is very simple. The Eastern Army also had some bad behaviors, and so many people wanted to restrain one by one, which was impossible. However, the two generals Cao and Liu were very strict and did not commit many sins. The people of Bashu were not too repulsive when fighting with General Cao. However, when they met General Wang, they all had the hatred of killing their father and the hatred of taking their wives, and they all became mourning soldiers. Therefore, General Wang was defeated repeatedly. After General Cao's troops were transferred to Jiazhou, General Wang could not even take down a Guankou Village."

"So you made another big bet?"

"Your Majesty, I am not a good person, but I can't stand it. Mr. Lu cried when he mentioned this."

"Is Lu Yuqing doing well in Yizhou?"

"It's okay, Yizhou is gradually in peace. Even if a large number of northern troops are stationed, the people's hearts are still not stable. Your Majesty. I don't know if I can say it."

"Tell me."

"Mr. Lu said something to me. Some people say he is the man of Mr. Zhao. Mr. Lu said I would be right? I think so. He and Mr. Zhao are both close ministers to His Majesty, so why should I obey Mr. Zhao? Mr. Lu said that it is just about matters. Mr. Zhao's strategies are of great help to the country, so why bother to oppose it? He also said that you are the man of the Second King. I said that I am not, but I am just taking the team. Where is my turn, a small person, who is my turn to take the team."

"What sideline?"

"It's just to join the party. Your Majesty, let me tell you, with my status, will the second king accept it? Why am I the second king and Mr. Lu is the second king of Zhao? Who is the slanderous thing that he talks too much?"

Zhao Kuangyin finally burst into laughter.

Zhao Kuangyi was right and he came out to plead for Qingshu. Zhao Kuangyin was a little unhappy. Song Jiu was content and had little ambitions. If even such a person had to "take a side" then everything would be out of his control.

It doesn’t matter if Song Jiu stands or not, the following officials’ dynamics are important. Song Jiu’s dynamics also represent the dynamics of most people. Song Jiu is not serious. He talks nonsense, but he relieves Zhao Kuangyin’s heart. He stood up and said, “I’ll have a supper with me today.”

"Your Majesty, do you have this honor?"

Zhao Kuangyin was happy again and said, "By your achievements in the west, I have this honor. Let me accompany you to the Imperial Garden first."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The king and his minister came out, and Zhao Kuangyin asked, "Why do you want to say good things for Lu Yuqing?"

"Your Majesty asked me to go down to see me, and I also went down to see me, and then I tried hard to think about it. I only came up with a few ways to make the war end quickly and transfer the Northern Army back. The Northern Army could not stay in Bashu, and the people were too hatred for them. By the way, I also brought two hundred Sichuan cavalry. I promised them to let them return to Puzhou. Your Majesty, you cannot leave them in the capital."

“Why?”

"Originally, His Majesty had a good intention to transfer troops to the capital, but now it cannot be transferred to avoid misunderstandings from the people. I also want His Majesty to see what the Sichuan soldiers are like. Emperor Yang of Sui was incompetent in governing the country and rebelled in various places. Instead, he believed that the people should be killed, and the more they were killed, the better. But where could they be killed? As a result, they lost the world and died tragically in Yangzhou. Governing the people is like governing the people, and it is better to be cleared. The best way to make peace is, and prevention is definitely not possible."

"Don't tell the big truth, you're afraid, are you?"

Song Jiu frowned and said, "Your Majesty, it's fake. I'm really afraid, especially General Wang, who slaughtered hundreds of people in front of me. I wanted to vomit and had nightmares for many days. This time I offended General Wang so hard that I didn't feel relieved until I ran to Hanzhong."

"You kid..."

"Your Majesty, I did not do anything wrong?"

"It's okay, you can know that borrowing two hundred Sichuan cavalry from Kang Yanze was very good at borrowing two hundred Sichuan cavalry from Kang Yanze, otherwise you would have been reckless that night. Later, you made a bet with Wang Quanbin until Ding Deyu came to Yizhou and took advantage of the conflicts between them. He forced Wang Quanbin to make a bet by using that force. Although he was dangerous, he knew how to take advantage of the situation and did not do it recklessly. If you want to do things in this world, you must take some risks. It is impossible to take any risks without any risks in such a big thing. Although you are reckless, now that you succeed, I will not blame you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Let's talk about Lu Yuqing and Bashu."

"My way is to clear the way, so that it can be settled quickly and resolve some of its hatred. As the Northern Route Army is immediately transferred back."

"There is a rebellion in Jiazhou again."

"Your Majesty, like Wang Quanbin's repeated defeats, forced suppression, the hatred became deeper and louder, and the people's calls for resistance became louder. To be honest, I felt a little sympathy when I heard the death of Quan Shixiong in the Secretariat just now. Although I knew that he must be eliminated."

"Sympathy with the rebel?"

"Your Majesty, look at the problem fairly. What does your Majesty think of Liu Renshan?"

"Loyal ministers from all over the world, and great generals from all over the world."

"All the army can also be considered a good general. If there is no prestige, how can he choose him as the leader if more than 100,000 surrendered soldiers? That was forced. He didn't want to do so. Zhu Guangxu went to seek comfort, but he still wanted to surrender. As a result, Zhu Guangxu took his daughter, robbed his wealth, and destroyed all his clan members. Putting aside the enemy and us, he was hateful and willing to do so," said Song Jiu suddenly had a sudden idea and said, "Your Majesty, why not give him an official position and send someone to write a sacrifice, and the resentment of the people of Bashu will be reduced by one point."
