Chapter 121 Gains and Losses

After Guo Ning and others led their troops back to Xinqiao Camp in Anzhou, Yira Chucai rushed to Zhongdu with his capable men. The journey was three hundred miles and the return journey was another three hundred miles.It seems that Chu Cai knew some important news in Zhongzhong, so he rushed back quickly. This is really hard work, even an iron man can't bear it!

Guo Ning raised his eyes anxiously, and saw that Yila Chucai's face was pale, his eyes were bloodshot, and his always neatly combed beard was stained with mud and blood, making it unsightly.

Looking at Yila Chucai's robe, there are several blood stains, and the posture of sitting on the horse is also slightly stiff.Guo Ning was taken aback, and without asking about the situation in Zhongdu, he first took Yisa Chucai's arm: "Where is Jin Qing hurt? Is it important?"

Yicha Chucai was a little moved, bowed and said: "A part of the Mongolian army has been advancing eastward, and has captured Fanyang, Zhuozhou, and is now confronting Shuhu Gaoqi's troops. There are many roads. When I was returning, I was bumped into a stream and suffered some minor injuries. It's okay..."

Speaking of this, he sighed: "It's a pity that several soldiers of Jue Cong died in battle."

Guo Ning nodded: "This trip has a lot to do with it. If the soldiers who died in the battle have family members, they will be heavily compensated."

He also knew that Yila Chucai was just talking lightly.This Khitan man is a scholar, not a powerful general, even if he has a servant and a good horse, if he collides with a Mongolian sentinel, he will almost die.

Guo Ning's background was always too low, and he had no prestige outside the army, so there were very few staff available around him.But there are other possibilities, Guo Ning will not send Yira Chucai to Zhongdu at all.

But what has to be done has to be done.

The momentum of the Mongolian army's invasion this time was earth-shattering. Anyone could see that the Kingdom of Jin was on the verge of collapse.However, after all, Dajin has been established for a hundred years, and there is still a lot of power at its disposal. Guo Ning and others hold on to the key points in the chaos, so that they can navigate the chaotic situation and grab benefits step by step.

For this reason, the contact with Tu Danyi in the central capital is very important. Only by Yira Chucai can he go there in person to understand the situation in Central Capital, what Tu Danyi wants to do, and how to deal with it.

Du Shisheng asked anxiously from the side: "It's as long as Jin Qing is fine, but what should you say about Tu Dan Youcheng?"

"Tu Dan Youcheng said that he will not do anything that breaks the rules unless it is absolutely necessary. But please rest assured, Mr. Guo Lang, he will be promoted to the king as soon as possible."

After a pause, Chu Cai said again: "Since Zhuozhou has changed hands, the Mongolian army on the west and north sides of the central capital is approaching step by step. The traffic between the two rivers of Lushui and Lugoushui may not always be smooth. It is true that the Mongolian army is approaching the city. , it’s too late to do anything. Hurry up, sir!”

"It seems that Tu Dan Youcheng is sure." Du Shisheng murmured, "It's just that, since Mr. Guo Lang doesn't want to be the sword that everyone criticizes... who is Tu Dan Youcheng dispatching?" ?”

"I reckon it's Guo Langjun's old acquaintance."

Yira Chucai smiled wryly and said: "Three days ago, that is, on August [-]th, Tu Dan Youcheng suggested to the emperor to gather the generals to make concerted efforts to deal with the crisis. This move was immediately strongly opposed by Wanyan Zuocheng. The reason why Yan Zuocheng objected was not against Tu Dan Youcheng..."

Tu Danyi has long since lost his strength in the army.Earlier, Guo Ning set fire to the palace city of Zhongdu. In order to suppress this matter, Tu Danyi made a political deal with Wan Yangang, shrinking some of his forces in the Wuwei Army, Weijie Army, and even the Zhongdu Police Patrol. Transferred to Wanyan Gang.

Therefore, when it comes to military affairs and important generals in the court at this time, there is only one person Wanyan Gang will be wary of.

"It's Hu Shahu, right?"

Guo Ning pulled his mustache and laughed: "Hu Shahu was originally a powerful tool that Wanyan Gang relied on to suppress Tu Shan Youcheng, but now he has become a deeply feared enemy. Tu Shan Youcheng's As soon as the memorial was posted, Wanyan Gang immediately suppressed Hu Shahu with all his strength to prevent any accidents. With Hu Shahu's arrogant and arrogant temperament, even the emperor didn't pay attention to him, let alone Wanyan Gang? The day Wanyan Gang suppressed him, he would It is Hu Shahu who is furious and will use the day of revenge..."

Yicha Chucai immediately said: "Hu Shahu is the right deputy marshal, and he controls considerable power in the central government. Once he acts, I am afraid that no one in the court can control him. Therefore, Prime Minister Tu Shan will need Guo Langjun's help even more. Afterwards, I will definitely not be stingy with rewards."

"very good."

Guo Ning nodded slightly.He has fought on the battlefield for more than ten years, killing people without counting, and he has a fierce murderous aura with him.But at this moment, although he was smiling happily, there was a bit of ferocious malice in his tone.

Chu Cai's heart shuddered.

The more familiar he is with Guo Ning, the more Yila Chucai knows his talent and his boldness.In the final analysis, this gentleman is also a vicious tiger. Could he be more harmless than Hu Shahu?But can Prime Minister Tu Dan really control him?
A group of people talked on the side of the road, and they were only two or three feet away from the formation of soldiers.

A brand head was urging the soldiers to march along the road. He walked to Guo Ning and the others, took a breath, and took a sip of water.Under the shadow of the trees, he couldn't see the serious expressions of Guo Ning and the others clearly. He only saw Guo Ning and his staff were there, as if they were chatting.

The head of the sign approached excitedly and asked: "Mr. Lang, you will arrive at Xin'an in half an hour. Everyone has been driving for a few days, but you don't know where you are going?"

Many soldiers knew Guo Ning, and Guo Ning was familiar with them.For example, the head of this brand, Guo Ning remembers that his surname is Yu, and he is from Rouyuan County, north of Yehuling.He looks wrinkled, about 40 years old, but in fact he is only in his early twenties, but the wind and frost, hard work and repeated fighting have brought them too much damage.

Just like most of the soldiers in the army at this time, this brand head surnamed Yu also has a sad and tearful story.

On that day, the Jin army's defense line at the north entrance of Yehuling collapsed, and the Mongolian army besieged Huihe Fort with the soldiers and civilians of the border fort along the boundary moat as the forerunner.The head of this brand was one of the defenders of Huihe Fort, and his newly married wife was one of the people who were driven to attack the city, and died in front of his eyes.

Now, the sign surnamed Yu looked at Guo Ning happily.

Of course they know the news from the outside world.The Mongols are coming, and they will bring massacres again.Dajin's imperial court is also shabby, not worth the slightest expectation.

Gou Ri's world is like this, they don't care at all.

Their prematurely aged faces were deeply lined with dust and grime, and their eyes were cloudy.Only Guo Ning brought them a little light, making them believe that even in these dark years, the future is worth looking forward to and worth asking.

After fighting and fighting for so many years, Guo Ning has encountered countless dangers and lost relatives and comrades. He has already tempered his heart like a stone.

He waved his hand at the sign with a flat expression: "Stop talking nonsense! This is what you should ask? There will be a military order... We are going to a place where we can kill people!"

The brand head laughed twice: "Okay!"

For him, such an answer was enough.

Guo Ning knew that the pain of countless people abandoning their homes and wives to be separated from their children originated from the fiasco in Yehuling.The key to that fiasco was that Hu Shahu, the commander in chief of the army, abandoned the crowd and fled first.

In the eyes of Guo Ning and the soldiers, the ups and downs of the characters in the court are no different from pigs and dogs. Everyone doesn't care who goes up and who goes down.But if Hu Shahu can take this opportunity to do something, Guo Ning is very willing to intervene.

The last time I was outside Fanyang City in Zhuozhou, it was just a small greeting.But this time, in Zhongdu City, Guo Ning and the soldiers were very willing to seek justice from Hu Shahu for the innocent souls of countless soldiers in northern Xinjiang.

"Inform Miao Daorun, Zhang Rou and Jing Anmin of this news, and tell them, who among them is willing to go with me, who is willing to stare at the king, and who is willing to look after the rear team, and make a decision within a moment. After two moments, I'm going to rectify the cavalry, traveling day and night...we're going to kill people."
