The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

When Song Baokang heard this, he was surprised that Wan Lianxing didn't take him seriously at all and dared to tell the emperor how to do things.

Wan Lianxing continued to say to Song Baokang, who was surprised, "This power should be in the hands of wise and capable people. Although I, Wan Lianxing, am not talented, I am willing to worry and work harder."

Song Baokang didn't dare to listen to such words, for fear of his life. The eight or nine hundred wounded soldiers in his hands could not deal with Wan Lianxing who wanted to rebel. As the saying goes, a man who knows the current situation is a hero. He should not listen to what he shouldn't listen to, should not look at what he shouldn't look at, and should keep his mouth shut when he shouldn't say too much. "My Lord, I'm in a hurry to go home to recruit soldiers and horses, so I can't stay long. Thank you for opening the city gate and letting me in today. Song is very grateful."

Wan Lianxing said, "You came to help me fight in Fengying, how can I stop you outside the city gate? I see that you haven't rested for many days. It will take you several days to return to Chaizhou from here. At this time, your men have lost their armor and are seriously injured. In my opinion, you should rest here for two days. I have sent people to prepare wine and food. Let's have a few drinks."

Song Baokang knew that Wan Lianxing was a difficult person, so he couldn't refuse. However, he reminded Wan Lianxing, "My Lord, the people from the Southern Yan Kingdom will soon catch up with us. Don't you want to think of a strategy to deal with them?"

Wan Lianxing said: "It's okay. We are not afraid even if their army comes. Let's go and have a drink."

Song Baokang said, "My Lord, why don't we watch the battle first."

Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "Stay with me for a few days. I'll let you watch as much fighting as you want."

Song Baokang glanced at Wan Lianxing's manpower. There were indeed many soldiers and generals here, but he couldn't tell exactly how many there were. Seeing Wan Lianxing's determined look, he thought for a while and asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time: "My Lord, how many people do you have here?"

Wan Lianxing also glanced at his troops and said, "I'm not bringing many people this time, only 20,000 troops. I'm going to try fighting the Southern Yan Kingdom first. If the battle is not difficult, I plan to fight in the Southern Yan Kingdom's territory. I heard that the Southern Yan Kingdom is quite rich, so I plan to expand the territory of Fengying to the south."

Wan Lianxing spoke of such evil ambitions without blushing or being nervous, and it seemed very common, but Song Baokang's heart was pounding.

Wan Lianxing urged, "Let's go eat. I brought someone to accompany you to drink. Let's have a few drinks."

"Who is it?"

Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "You will know each other when you meet."

As soon as he entered the big tent, someone came forward and said, "Captain Song, how are you?"

"Master Ge? Why are you here?"

Ge Dongqing smiled and said, "Captain Song, please don't call me Lord Ge. I, Ge Dongqing, am still a scapegoat. I am here today because the Marquis and I are sworn brothers. So, I should thank the Marquis for meeting Lord Song here."

As expected, Ge Dongqing got his companions drunk. As usual, he composed a poem after being drunk: "I met you in the big tent, but I threw away my armor. The silver candles and golden cups were cold in the night. The dark clouds covered the bright moon. The green mountains and clear waters were stained with dust and smoke." Then Ge Dongqing cried sadly like a child.

Song Baokang said: "Brother Ge, why are you crying? You care about the world so much, you will be acquitted sooner or later. Brother Ge is a man of great talent, and the emperor will remember you sooner or later."

Song Baokang didn't understand Ge Dongqing yet. Ge Dongqing had developed this problem since he married Lu Siniang. He would cry when he was drunk. This was normal crying and nothing surprising.

Ge Dongqing sobbed twice: "The fortifications are not solid, the armor is insufficient, and Sha Guanghan suffered from this. The fields are not cultivated, and the goods are not accumulated. This is where Fengying is poor. The superiors do not know right from wrong, and the subordinates have no real talents and knowledge. The villains are in power and stir up trouble. This is going to destroy the country."

Song Baokang also sighed after hearing this, "I don't know whose slander the emperor listened to. This huge Fengying only has 3,500 soldiers. The Southern Yan Kingdom is strong and well-equipped with food and grass. Even if Sha Guanghan has three heads and six arms, he can't resist the Southern Yan Kingdom. Later, I don't know who the emperor listened to, and brought Zou Sanduo here. This person is neither good at literature nor martial arts. He is just a waste. He is definitely a scum who can't do anything well but always makes trouble. He has suppressed and humiliated Sha Guanghan in the military camp. Fortunately, Sha Guanghan is smart and sent his son away early, otherwise he would have been killed by Zou Sanduo. I, Song Baokang, have led troops in battles for decades, and I have never seen such a cowardly and evil captain. He has no blood at all, but countless people died and were seriously injured. Only Zou Sanduo was intact and not injured at all. Oh, it's really hateful."

At this time, Ge Dongqing said: "It's okay, just wait for my elder brother to deal with these people. I will make them pay a heavy price."

Early the next morning, Wan Lianxing was still sleeping when he heard the sound of drums outside. He asked his entourage, "What's going on?"

The attendant said: "The army of the Yan Kingdom in the south is approaching us."

Wan Lianxing muttered in annoyance: "No, this is too early."

The attendant said helplessly: "My Lord, it's late. You got up late today."

He inquired about the situation, packed up and went out. At this time, everyone was on the city wall, looking out with telescopes in their hands. When they saw Wan Lianxing coming, they all shouted, "My Lord."

"Where are they?"

Sui Ming said, "We will be at the city in another cup of tea."

Song Baokang reminded Wan Lianxing: "My Lord, there are 20,000 of them coming. You have to have people start arranging the troops. It will be too late to think about how to deal with this battle when you get to the city. They have more cavalry and it seems that they are ready to attack Tongchun Pass."

Wan Lianxing said: "Only 20,000 people?"

Song Baokang said: "My Lord, don't underestimate these 20,000 people. We have fought with them many times. The general Zhao Guangyi of the Southern Yan Kingdom is a strong enemy, and his subordinates are all capable people."

Wan Lianxing asked Sui Ming: "How is it arranged?"

He said: "My Lord, just wait and see the show."

Wan Lianxing patted his shoulder and said, "Quick and decisive, we haven't had breakfast yet."

Everyone looked at Wan Lianxing after hearing this, and Wan Lianxing asked, "Have you eaten everything?"

Ge Dongqing stood there in a daze, feeling that a strong wind would blow him down to the city wall. "Brother, we are here to lead the troops to fight. We all got up before dawn to prepare for the battle, so we have eaten early. Yesterday our people shot and killed some of the pursuers. They must have been well prepared today, so today will be a tough battle. Trust me, go back and eat first, and come back to watch the battle later."

At this time, a voice was heard coming from far away: "Grandpa, grandpa, I brought you food." Then Cheng Youning came running happily with several buns in his hands.
