Northern Song Dynasty gangster: Start the game with a dog's head, and Mr. Bao spares his life

Tong Guan had no choice but to ask Gong Liangchen to come to Cao Bin to ask for food.

Unexpectedly, Gong Liangchen never returned, and the soldiers were already so hungry that they started to flee.

So, he had to lead the soldiers to find Cao Bin for food.

During the journey of only one or two hundred miles, more than half of his 2 troops fled, leaving only more than [-] people.

In other words, if the Hedong Army didn't fight a battle, it would be over.

If the court knows this, even if Tong Guan is not exiled to Qiongzhou, he will be demoted to another remote village.

There was no other way, so he had the cheek to come to Cao Bin for help.

Seeing Cao Bin groaning silently, Tong Guan became impatient and said:

"Uncle, you can't just ignore death!"

"From now on, Tong is willing to look up to my uncle, as long as my uncle shares some credit with me!"

Gong Liangchen realized the seriousness of the matter after hearing Tong Guan's narration.

If the court blames it, not only Tong Guan, but even him will not be able to escape responsibility.

Now that Tong Guanxiang handed over his military power, he became anxious:

"No, the imperial court ordered Mr. Tong to restrain the Yan Yan army. How can we put the cart before the horse?"

"Since there is a combined army, the Hedong Army should be in the lead..."

For the sake of Tong Guan's attitude, Cao Bin may give him some credit for atonement, but he will definitely not save himself.

When Tong Guan is exempted, he will be unlucky.

But before he finished speaking, Tong Guan directly interrupted:

"Shut up, how can you talk to Uncle like this?"

As he spoke, he quickly pulled Gong Liangchen aside, and whispered comforting words:

"Brother, brother, this is also for the sake of our future, don't make mistakes!"

"Uncle Cao has always been soft-hearted. As long as you apologize sincerely, he won't die..."

He didn't even think about the command of the army, not to mention that he was amazed by Cao Bin's military talent.

Even if he wants to take over the command in the name of the court, it is impossible.

Does he know Cao Bin's position in the emperor's heart.

As long as Cao Bin submits a memorial, let alone the command, he may be questioned by the court immediately.

As he spoke, he pushed Gong Liangchen and said:

"Brother, go back first, don't worry, we are all grasshoppers on the same rope, brother, I will never forget to save you."

Under Tong Guan's forceful pushing and shoving, Gong Liangchen had no choice but to leave reluctantly.

Then Tong Guan smiled flatteringly:

"Uncle, don't bother with him. This is someone who is stupid in reading, and can't let go of his lofty heart for a while."

Cao Bin glanced at him sideways and said:

"You take good care of him, he has other identities."

Tong Guan laughed twice and said:

"Uncle was joking. Isn't this going to make him a scapegoat? Tong feels very sorry."

He said in a low voice:

"Actually, he is nothing special. Although he is Grand Master Pan's nephew, Grand Master Pan actually doesn't care about him at all."

"His real backer is Pan Huangfei in the palace."

Then, he winked and said:

"This guy and Concubine Pan are childhood sweethearts, and they planned to go to Grand Master Pan's mansion to propose marriage last year."

"Unexpectedly, Master Pan forcibly sent his daughter to the palace..."

"This kid looks infatuated, and has rejected several marriages! The old love is not over."

"No, as soon as she found an opportunity, Imperial Concubine Pan couldn't help supporting this kid."

Cao Bin raised his eyebrows and said:

"So, this is still a fateful mandarin duck?"

Tong Guan snorted and said:

"Shit, I think he prefers the current state. Wouldn't it be convenient to have a concubine make decisions for him?"

Seeing that Tong Guan didn't take it seriously, Cao Bin was a little speechless. Do you, a dead eunuch, know what it means to be in love with each other?

Of course, as a layman, he doesn't understand, but it doesn't prevent him from secretly despising Tong Guan.

So he stroked his chin and muttered:

"That is to say, we framed him to give the officials a reason to deal with him openly?"

Tong Guan Dayi said awe-inspiringly:

"Uncle is wrong, how is this framed?"

"The Hedong Army has fallen to such a point, isn't it because of Gong Liangchen's random meddling in military affairs?"

After finishing speaking, he exchanged a glance with Cao Bin and laughed.

This dead eunuch was insidious enough, smiling on the surface, stabbing the knife secretly, and wanted to completely push his own responsibility onto Gong Liangchen's head.

However, Cao Bin was also annoyed by Gong Liangchen jumping up and down, so he nodded reluctantly and said:

"Okay, let's do this, let's join forces!"

Seeing Cao Bin let go, Tong Guan finally breathed a sigh of relief and was very happy in his heart.

Within two days, the weather in Yanzhou finally cleared up, but the heavy rain was followed by severe drought, and the weather suddenly became hot.

Just when Cao Bin and others decided to attack Lingzhou, the imperial envoy suddenly arrived.

In the past few days, Gong Liangchen has been writing memorials to impeach Cao Bin. When he heard that the imperial envoy arrived, he immediately became happy and hurried to Tong Guan and said:

"Master Tong, the imperial court's order has finally come, and it should be to punish Cao Bin."

"I think Zhong Shiheng's army under his command has a good strategy, and he can entrust him with important tasks at that time."

"We can just use this person to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds!"

Tong Guan gave him a strange look, and nodded noncommittally.

I hope that when he hears the content of the imperial decree, his jaw will not drop in shock.

Sure enough, when he heard that the imperial court allowed Cao Bin to act cheaply without restraint, and granted the wife of the main house a third-rank imperial order, Gong Liangchen was jealous and hated.

I wasted my pen and ink in vain, and let him get such a heavy reward.

It should be that his memorial has not been sent to the court.

He can only comfort himself like this.

After that, Gong Liangchen stopped jumping up and down, but silently followed Fu Yanjun to Lingzhou, intending to slowly look for opportunities.

It's just that he doesn't know that Cao Bin and Tong Guan have already arranged him clearly...

Now Cao Bin's army has soared to 8 to [-], which can be described as huge.

He had already received the military report that except for the Tubo friendly army being blocked in Tiandu Mountain, the rest of the Yang family and Zhang Shanfu had met outside Lingzhou city and confronted the Xixia people.

Lingzhou is the gateway to the capital of Xixia, they have no way out, and must fight a tough battle...

The army walked for more than half a month before arriving near Lingzhou.

The city is backed by the Yellow River, and there are dry canals everywhere dozens of miles to the east.

This is a water conservancy project of the Xixia people, but for the Song army, there are some obstacles.

Not far after crossing the ditch, you can see the Song Army tents connected together, with no end in sight at a glance, and the banners of "Song" and "Yang" fluttering in the wind in the village.

A middle-aged general with a big belly and many lieutenant generals greeted Cao Bin outside the camp.

Old Madam She and other female generals of the Yang family were also among them.

This middle-aged man is the Generalissimo of the Western Expedition, Zhang Shanfu.

He is the cousin of the late Empress Zhang and the niece-in-law of the Empress Dowager.

Compared with Pang Yu and Pan Bao's watery "National Uncles", he is a serious relative of the emperor.

Seeing this, Cao Bin stretched out his hand and made a stop gesture, and the long army behind him immediately stopped slowly.

Seeing him swinging off his horse, Zhang Shanfu opened his arms from a long distance away, laughed loudly and said:

""Juncai, I look forward to you like rain, and now you have finally arrived! "

"With talented people here, the demise of Xixia is just around the corner!"

When Cao Bin saw this, his expression changed immediately, and he showed a brighter smile. He took the initiative to hug Zhang Shanfu, and said modestly:

"The marshal is too famous, the younger generation is just a fool, how dare to be the marshal with such a high reputation?"

"With Marshal Zhang next, it is the Xixia people's nightmare!"

Zhang Shanfu was dumbfounded by Cao Bin's embrace.

Made, why is this kid more enthusiastic than me?Could it be that there is a way in your heart?

Thinking of this, he immediately became vigilant.

The two of them were not familiar with each other at first, but they were like relatives at this moment, and everyone felt chills when they saw it.

At this time, Zhang Shanfu suddenly said:

"Hey, I heard that Juncai's army is rich in food and grass, and the army supplies..."

Before he could finish speaking, Cao Bin forcefully said:

"Marshal, our battalion is running out of food and grass, and the supply in the army will depend on Marshal Zhang!"

There is nothing to show courteousness, rape or steal, Cao Bin was on guard from the beginning.

At this moment, upon hearing Zhang Shanfu's voice, Cao Bin knew what his plan was.

A preemptive strike came directly!

Zhang Shanfu was hugged by him with great force, he couldn't breathe immediately, he slapped Cao Bin's armor quickly and said:

"Let go, Juncai let go..."

Seeing that Zhang Shanfu rolled his eyes, everyone came to their senses and said quickly:

"Uncle Zhongjing, stop quickly, the Marshal is about to be strangled to death by you."

After Cao Bin let go, it took Zhang Shanfu a while to recover, and he almost died on the spot.

Without waiting for him to criticize, Cao Bin quickly apologized:

"I didn't expect the marshal to be so weak, hey, sin, sin!"

Zhang Shanfu looked at Cao Bin with some fear in his eyes, and he didn't have the heart to spank him anymore, so he hurriedly arranged the camp and ran away.

Looking at Zhang Shanfu's back, Eighth Sister Yang couldn't help but smile, and gave a harsh "Bah" and said:

"Deserved!"

At this time, Granny She said:

"Uncle Zhongjing, you might as well sit in my camp."

Cao Bin wanted to know the situation in Lingzhou, so he readily agreed.

Seeing the gloomy faces of the generals of the Yang family, Cao Bin asked:

"What did the old lady teach?"

Seeing Madam She's signal, the eloquent Yang Jia Sanniang began to narrate.
