Chapter 33 Aftermath

Yun Zheng, who was sitting on the hill drinking porridge, pointed at the place where the side van was, and said to Wang Anshi: "The battle situation there has been stable. Now we need to move the central army forward. I believe that when noon arrives, Lang Tan will definitely be able to take Guanshan. At this time, we will have a new commanding height. When standing on the top of Guanshan, the Liao army will have nowhere to hide.:.../"

"The side van only forms a first-line military formation. How can we hold on in the Liao army group?" Wang Anshi's face was not good-looking.

"Prince, we might as well make a bet. If General Sun Dazhi can hold on in such a dangerous environment, how can we write off Duan Yanxiu's affairs?"

Wang Anshi said with a smile: "What do you think? I am insulted in the central army's tent to the extreme. Do you think a few words can eliminate the block in my chest?"

Yun Zheng spread his hands and said, "There is no way. Who told you to bully you? Who told your subordinate to be unwitting? Who would die if he didn't die?"

Wang Anshi sneered and said, "This is a good thing, it is not concealed or hypocritical. I have put it to the root of the seedlings. I am indeed weak and powerless now, and it is reasonable to be killed by my subordinates."

Yun Zheng shook his head and said, "Actually, I would rather offend Wen Yanbo than offend you. As long as the reforms in Yanyundi are effective, you will be the prime minister in the morning. Although Wen Yanbo is a very smart person, this person has great shortcomings in his personality. It is naturally excellent for the Sansi, but he is not suitable to be the prime minister."

Wang Anshi snorted mockingly and said bitterly: "You think you are worthy of me."

Yun Zheng said for granted: "Of course I will look down on you. In fact, the only person I respect in the entire Song Dynasty is you.

I still remember that year that His Majesty asked us ministers to farm to show that we should not forget the pain of farming. You were sick, but I still had no way to forget the way you were working in the fields with your old wife."

"Since you look down on me so much, will you repay me with humiliation?"

Yun Zheng shook his head and said, "The people I think of will naturally be different. Duan Yanxiu is just a reckless wild boar. How can he shoulder the mission you gave him?

Today I would like to recommend this person to you. You don’t need to wait until I leave. You will find that he is the best candidate to fulfill your mission at the moment!"

Wang Anshi's eyes narrowed. This was a dangerous signal and a sign that he was about to explode.

Yun Zheng waved his hand and said, "After the Battle of Yanyun, our Song Dynasty will inevitably enter a stage of rest and recuperation. At this stage, what kind of generals are the most popular?

There is no doubt that he is a defensive general. Sun Dazhi has been studying defense for more than ten years and is also a general who has experienced many battles. He has never missed any battles with me since I started a war from Shu until now, which means that he has experienced as much as I have experienced.

The reason why his name is not common in the credit book is because I always use him to protect my central army camp. Even so, he did it without regrets.

After I leave, the Song Dynasty will be in quit for at least ten years. The emperor will take time to grow up, and the national strength consumed will take time to make up for it. Ten years later, the emperor, who was in his youth, will definitely not be willing to occupy the Yinxia Prefectures of the Western Xia Kingdom. He will definitely set the border of the Song Dynasty on the front line of Yumen Pass.

That is to say, it takes you ten years to maintain a relatively stable situation in the Song Dynasty, and having Sun Dazhi will undoubtedly be your best choice."

The unhappiness on Wang Anshi's face soon faded away, and he said in confusion: "Have you started looking for a next home for your general?"

Yun Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "All brothers of life and death, you can't let them lose their fate no matter what. Otherwise, I will be restless even if I am at sea."

Wang Anshi stopped talking, but focused on how to fight in the distance. Although he couldn't see the details clearly, he just knew from the appearance of the Liao cavalry turning around in front of the side van. He knew that Sun Dazhi seemed at ease to deal with the Liao people in front of him.

In a short time, one van turned into two and three. When the two vans in the front began to charge towards the left and right hatchbacks, the rain of arrows and dense gunpowder bullets flew out from the van. The large areas of Liao troops on both sides were quickly wiped out.

After the smoke of gunpowder, a car city composed of side vans appeared on the ground out of thin air, completely dividing the Liao cavalry into two halves.

"Have you seen the power just now? Sun Dazhi slightly improved the useless weapon like the tiger running, and installed it on the box truck, which became what he is now. Any intensive attack will not be a problem for him, and it will only become his best opportunity to kill the enemy and make achievements.

Lao Wang. Listen to me, I have the most say in whether a general is good or not. Sun Dazhi is a simple man. Once he has made a favor with him, he will never betray him for the rest of his life. Why are you hesitating about?"

Wang Anshi curled his lips and said, "Only when you leave, I can gather this person. Now I will gather him is an insult to him. Of course, this must be based on the premise that he is indeed a person who is grateful and rewards."

Yun Zheng said impatiently: "Do you want it? If you don't want it, I will entrust it to Zeng Gongliang. He can still take good care of this good person who is indifferent to the world after I leave."

"Yes, why don't you? If you have any inheritance, please give me a greeting, and I will accept it all."

Yun Zheng laughed at Wang Anshi's shameless face, and after a while, he stopped and said, "I like to see the shameless faces of you scholars and officials the most.

Sun Dazhi's subordinates are the most defensive army, but a general wants to defend, which is inseparable from the support from the rear.

There is no city in the world that cannot be defeated, only a line of defense that cannot be defeated. This line of defense can be tangible, invisible, or even conceptual. This is related to the quality of the general. Yun Zheng believes that Sun Dazhi has completed his own transformation. As long as he can obtain the full help of Wang Anshi, it is time to shine.

In the foreseeable future of Yun Zheng, Wang Anshi is definitely the master of the Song Dynasty. After he left, the Western Army of Beijing was suppressed and splitting was inevitable.

After asking Jiang Zhe and Lang Tan, Jiang Zhe planned to retire to the countryside, and Lang Tan was preparing to find a wealthy place to enjoy the rest of his life. As for Wu Jie, because his ancestral home was in Hebei, he planned to stay under Han Qi's disciple to continue to fight for his high-ranking officials and generous salaries.

Gathering and separation have always been an inevitable process in the journey of life. Parents, wife and children are unable to escape the word "gathering and separation" in the end, so how can we talk about anything else?

While the two of them were talking, they suddenly heard a cheer from Guanshan Mountain. When they turned their heads and looked, they saw Lang Tan's flying tiger flag being inserted high on the top of the mountain. Countless soldiers cheered on the top of the mountain, and the sound of dense gunpowder bomb explosions still came from behind the mountain.

Being condescending, it is the time when gunpowder bullets exert its maximum power. The mountain is settled!

Seeing that Guanshan had fallen into Lang Tan's hands, Jiang Zhe also issued the final attack order. The panicked Liao army rushed left and right within a small range. Countless Liao army jumped off their horses and knelt down on their knees to surrender. Those who were still working hard to fight were stabbed off by the Song army holding long spears.

The corpses in front of the side van formation were piled up. When Jiang Zhe led his subordinates to celebrate, Sun Dazhi's subordinates had already begun to clean up the battlefield and recovered the arrows and stone bombs that had been fired.

Wang Anshi looked at Sun Dazhi in front of him with satisfaction and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work, General!"

"It's all the achievements of soldiers, why dare Sun take away the beauty of others?" Sun Dazhi replied with great slightness and politeness, then went to his army after holding his fists and bowing. There were still many wounded soldiers there that needed to be taken care of by the military doctor.

Wang Anshi was a little embarrassed, but when he saw Yun Zheng's teasing gaze, he straightened his chest and followed Sun Dazhi to the side van barracks.

When Wen Yanbo came over, it was completely dark. From the early morning to the dusk, everyone in the barracks felt very tired. Wen Yanbo was paying attention to the Right Army, and he was also exhausted.

"Yelu Yixin lost the gate barrier of the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation. He will definitely attack the enemy when our army is not yet stable tonight. The general must guard against it."

Yun Zheng raised his head and pointed to the bright moon in the sky and said, "I'm afraid he won't come!"

Wen Yanbo laughed and said, "It's true. The earth was pale when the moon shone on the fifteenth day, no different from the sun. Under such celestial phenomena, it was very difficult for Yelu Yixin to attack.

Why, the general is preparing to let those civilians build the road to the mountain overnight?"

Yun Zheng nodded and said, "It's no time to go. Since the moon is in the sky, it's a pity not to do these auxiliary things. As long as the cannons are on the top of the mountain, the front army of Yelu Yixin's Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation will be covered by the cannons. I want to see how long his formation can last!"

Wen Yanbo frowned and said, "I heard that Di Shuai was still confronting Yelu Hongji in Hejian Prefecture. After the battle, each defended the territory and had not decided the outcome. It seems that if we want to advance to Nanjing Road, we must make efforts."

"This is natural. Duke Wen only needs to look at the sand table and understand that the places facing Hebei and Zhending Prefecture of Hejian are the places of prosperity for the Liao Kingdom. The Song Dynasty and Liao Kingdom have been confronting in that area for almost a hundred years, and various fortresses are scattered, so it is not suitable for the army to advance.

Our area is vast and there is a lot of room for maneuver. In addition, the land is vast and sparsely populated, it is natural to have a thousand miles a day. As long as we defeat Yelu Yixin at Tongtou Pass, there will be only one step left to retreat to Zhongjing Road."

Wen Yanbo sighed and said, "After entering the copper head, we will face various fortresses scattered in various places.

I heard that the tribes in Daoli in Nanjing were rampant, and they formed camps and hated the Song Dynasty very much. We had no choice but to move forward and pull nails all the way."

Yun Zheng smiled and said, "Not that Li Chang has entered Nanjing Road!" (To be continued.)
