The soldiers got into the stove and did not find a hiding place, so they hid behind a few bundles of firewood.
It didn't take long for the door outside to hear a "bang bang..." sound, and then someone came in, and the incomprehensible gurgling voice came. The lady's voice said: "We are people." She heard the woman scream, not knowing what happened.
The soldiers behind Chai He heard the voices of Khitan people, their hearts hung in the air, and they dared not move.
Not long after the door of the stove was knocked open, the woman was pushed in. Only one Khitanese came in, and he heard a "hey" laugh, and couldn't understand after a few words.
The man hiding in the firewood quietly looked at the situation in the room, only to see that the woman wanted to take the road and ran outside, but was grabbed by the Khitan by her arm. The Khitan man opened his mouth full of yellow teeth, and smiled and held the woman in his arms. The woman was struggling desperately, and the two were entangled together, and it was difficult for anyone to succeed under the woman's resistance.
The Khitan was annoyed, and he slammed the woman over and knocked the woman to the ground with a "bang", hitting her with a bruised nose and swollen face, and then raised her foot and kicked her abdomen. After punching and kicking the woman gradually became unable to resist.
The man in Chai Heli glanced at the door, and he hesitated for a while watching the woman being bullied. This unnamed lady had a life-saving grace to him. If she hadn't just opened the door and let him into the house, she would have been killed by the enemy soldiers!
I saw the lady's mouth full of blood, very miserable. The man finally couldn't bear it, his eyes saw the burning stick by the stove, and he carefully removed his body from the firewood. Saying that time is too fast, he rushed over to grab the fire stick, and the Khitan raised his head in surprise.
Without a word, the soldier swept the stick with both hands and swept it over, hitting the Khitan man with a bang on the head, and the man fainted with a scream and scream.
The man hurriedly pulled the woman behind him, then searched on the Khitan soldier, who came in without a weapon. The woman said anxiously: "There are still people out there, they will kill you..."
As soon as the voice fell, the door was opened. Two Khitan soldiers rushed in, yelling and waving their swords and guns. The spear suddenly pierced the man's abdomen, and he backed up two steps and was blocked by the stove. After a while, another Khitan soldier swung an iron sword and stabbed him in the chest. "Ah..." The man let out a terrified cry, his unarmed grabbed a stabbed iron sword, and his palm was suddenly cut. , Blood is flowing. He ignored the pain and grabbed the hilt of the enemy soldier with both hands.
But the Khitan soldiers yelled and pressed down desperately, and the iron sword slowly pierced into the man's heart. He widened his eyes, his strength gradually disappeared, and blood poured out of his mouth and nose.
When another Khitan man saw this, his red eyes pressed the woman on the stove. The woman was so scared that she couldn't speak, lying on the stove and shaking, watching the dead soldier staring at herself with godless eyes. With a "wow", she felt a cold behind her, and her clothes were torn apart. The woman's tears rolled out of her eyes.
...In the dilapidated village outside Yizhou City, a group of old and young stood at the entrance of the village. In the village, there were chickens and dogs jumping, and the barking of "barking..." local dogs was loud. Some Khitan soldiers turned over boxes and cabinets in the village, while others came out of the village carrying sacks of grain, and the horsebacks on the road were full of things.
An old farmer with a gully and wrinkled face watched those people carry the grain away from their home, walked forward a little trembling, and stood still. The eyes are full of pain.
The peasant woman next to her kneeled to the ground, and finally burst into tears: "My youngest and youngest child has all been robbed of food for a year. How can I live, God!"
The old farmer didn't say a word, but his rough and black hands, like an old tree, witnessed the difficulty of planting food. He scrabbled the ground like a cow or horse, and he still had to look at the face of God to harvest things. I have been busy for a year, I am afraid everyone can only go out to beg.
Then a farm cow from the village was also taken out. The farmers were all sad and angry, but no one dared to step forward to stop them. There were still a few dead bodies hanging from a tree not far away for people to watch.
...The horses and soldiers galloped on the road, as if entering an uninhabited state.
On the horse's back, a young Khitan man with a sharp face stopped the horse and looked coldly at the thick smoke rising from the city in the distance. He twisted his head hard, and his neck made a soft click.
This person is Brother Yeluxiu, and he snorted: "Xiao Siwen is a mother-in-law, and can't use soldiers. Let this handsome teach him how to govern the south."
South Court Secret Envoy Yang Dagon said: "This time, we have used it without authorization and did not report to Beijing... Maybe the Khan will not blame it, but I am afraid that there will be treacherous slanders."
Brother Yeluxiu sneered: "The treacherous man is Xiao Siwen? He went to the post of the Great King of the South Court, I am afraid it is really unhappy. But how can he attack the handsome? This time, he broke Yizhou and gained a lot. A group on the grassland The sheep’s hair has grown, and the shepherd went up to harvest the wool. Is it wrong?"
The surrounding generals all agreed. This time they made a lot of money, and everyone supported Yelu Xiu.
Yang Dagon said: "I'm afraid that Zhou people are not sheep, and now Daliao is still unrest, which has annoyed Zhou and made trouble."
"Haha..." Yeluxiu suddenly raised his head and laughed, leaning forward and backward, as if there is no better joke in this world. The soldiers looked at him one after another.
A nobleman asked: "Why does the marshal laugh?"
Brother Yeluxiu laughed less, shaking his head constantly, still laughing. His smile suddenly disappeared from his face, and the people around him remained unchanged. He opened his mouth and said: "At the beginning of the year, the Zhou Dynasty talents came to provoke, but we can't move him? You guys cringe, it's true that this world is upside down. , The sheep will eat wolves in turn?"
Yang Dagon said calmly: "At the beginning of the Youzhou battle, the marshal did not say that Guo Tiesmith was difficult to deal with?"
Yelixiu said coldly: "So what? No matter what, Zhou Junman is only 50,000 fine riders."
Yang Dagon no longer said much, nodding thoughtfully.
Brother Yeluxiu said: "It would be nice if he wants to come to Youzhou again, this handsome will just play with him again!"
……
Tokyo Jinxiang Temple, the wind is strong, blowing the leaves in the imperial city all over the sky.
Hebei’s various cities reported, nothing more than full vigilance and reinforcement of the city’s defenses, requesting reinforcements. Several ministers' important towns near the Juma River were adequately defended and insufficiently offensive, and no one was able to send troops to drive the large Liao army into the bandits.
Another estimate of Yizhou’s losses was reported. A large number of people were looted, mostly young women, and tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians were killed and injured. These are some cold data reports, but Guo Shao can imagine the blood and tears in these figures! Even modern wars are accompanied by crimes, let alone in this barbaric era, no organization can persuade barbaric **** and looting except force.
Guo Shao opened another memo, and after reading it for a long time, he realized that someone actually wrote to suggest a peace!
The reason is dignified, admonishing the emperor to try to accumulate national strength and deal with the remaining land in the south first. It is proposed that the country is beginning to flourish, and the people are miserable for years after years of fighting. Tolerance for a while can protect the long-term plan of the country. I did some calculations, saying that the long-term seesaw at the border cost a lot. It is better to negotiate with the Liao State for the time being, but it can save money and protect the people.
Guo Shao's face looks hot. Under such a situation, there is still a face to seek peace? He had to admire the face of some scholar-officials. The more he watched, the hotter he got, grabbing the memorial and kneading it into a ball, wishing to tear it apart!
This action immediately attracted the attention of several members of the cabinet and the **** on duty. Everyone turned their heads and quietly observed Guo Shao.
Guo Shao grasped the ball of paper in his hand with both hands, but finally did not tear it. He forcefully swallowed his breath into his stomach and re-opened to look at the cover. It turned out to be a memorial by the prime minister. No wonder someone was so bold!
His _ mother! I have endured you for a long time.
"Come here!" Guo Shaoleng patted the memorial on the royal case.
The **** Yang Shiliang, who was five big and three thick, immediately walked to the front of the case and bowed and said: "The slave and maid are here, what is your command?"
At this moment, Guo Shao is furious. If he is in his mood, he can’t wait to pull Fan Zhi out and cut his head to sacrifice the flag, and immediately lead his troops north! But he was still a sane person at last, and sat there silent for a long time.
Yang Shiliang's waist was bent lower, and he dared not say anything.
Guo Shao spoke a long time later: "Return the memorial to Fan Zhi, and ask him to hand over the black hat and put it here first. The prime minister will stop doing it and go home to reflect and wait for the summoning."
Yang Shiliang clasped his fist and said: "Here." Then carefully stepped forward and picked up Zou Baba's play.
In an instant, Guo Shao said that the prime minister's official position was nothing more than his power.
Yang Shiliang bowed and exited the West Hall, walked out the door, straightened up, and greeted a few eunuchs and entourage to go straight to the political affairs hall.
There were hundreds of officials in the hall of the Zhengshi Hall, and Yang Shiliang walked in and shouted: "The official imperial decree, ask Fan Xianggong to come out to receive the decree!"
At this time, it immediately attracted the attention of almost everyone. The surroundings gradually calmed down, some looked here, and some pretended to write and watched the situation calmly.
Not long after, Fan Zhiyang strode out.
Yang Shiliang said coldly: "Imperial decree."
Fan Zhi bowed his hand: "The old minister took the order."
Yang Shiliang said: "The official decreed that Fan Zhi will put the black hat in the palace first. You don't need to work in the political affairs hall. When you go home, you will reflect on yourself. If you want to understand, you will see your majesty."
Yang Shiliang spoke quite politely, because it seems that there is still a chance for the character of the imperial decree to reform, so he hasn't completely died yet, so there is some leeway.
Fan Zhi suddenly raised his head and sighed: "The faithfulness is against your ears...Ah!"
Yang Shiliang said calmly: "Fan Xianggong doesn't need to say more, you will not be the prime minister from now on. Your official, you must be made by your majesty, you must understand."
Fan Zhi glared at him contemptuously, then turned and walked inward.
Yang Shiliang had no choice but to follow. Fan Zhi took off all his robes and put them on the table, then put the black hat and big seal on the clothes. Wearing only a white lining, he walked out with his sleeves.
A few people in the hall still clasped their fists to say goodbye to him, with a lot of reluctance in their words. When Yang Shiliang saw it, it was no wonder that the emperor was so angry that his face was flushed, and he didn't really take him anymore, but only for the time being.
