Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 1668 Farewell to Zhang Qiyuan

But, then again, he completely destroyed Zhang Qiyuan's reputation that he had maintained for so many years. What the minister cherishes most is reputation. If the other party wants to rise again, it will be extremely difficult. Even if someone uses support, he will never Returning to the peak state is nothing more than becoming someone else's shooter, and it is the best policy to go to the Jurchens.

"You are also lucky. Wushu was seriously ill in Hebei, and he couldn't control the whole army at all. In the final decisive battle, he was commanded by a living woman, so that he was completely defeated." Zhang Qiyuan said unwillingly, the Lugouhe battle was always his. Heart disease, was brought up many times and still refused to accept, thinking that Wang Xiu took advantage of it.

If the experienced Wushu continues to command the entire army, the Jin army may have a chance to turn defeat into victory. I am afraid that the decisive battle will be held in Hebei. At least he will not be captured and can support Wulu to create a new situation.

According to his observations, the reason why Wulu's development is difficult is not the lack of elite soldiers and generals, but the lack of capable civil support, which makes the strategy incoherent and is designed by the Song Dynasty everywhere.

"How many times, are you annoying?" Wang Xiu shook her head, and smiled disdainfully: "The defeat of the captives is the general trend of the world, and it cannot be changed by Wushu alone. Besides, the counterattack commanded by Wushu failed, and the fourth brother went west. Attack, the captives have done nothing in Hebei, it is right for Huo Nu to choose the decisive battle at Lugou River, don't underestimate those generals."

"The only mistake was that I didn't have the confidence to fight to the death, which caused the horse army to disperse. Ulie's [-] main force did not go to the battlefield. On that day, the right wing of the imperial army was in chaos. , the war may really be rewritten, at least they can retreat calmly, but unfortunately there is no if."

All this time, he didn't analyze the mind of General Jin Jun, and he didn't even bother to discuss it with Zhang Qiyuan.

"Joke, where did the living girl get [-] riders?" Zhang Qiyuan said disdainfully.

"What does Wu Lie do when he is stationed in Yuquan Mountain?" Wang Xiu asked with raised eyebrows.

Zhang Qiyuan smiled coldly, and said sternly: "At least he saved Wulu, and the Jurchen seeds have been continued, even if you don't, you can get rid of it."

"It's a divide and conquer. They have no hope of rising. Compared with possibly defeating me, which one is more valuable? Why is Zhang Erge getting better and better, and he can't even tell the priority." Wang Xiu smiled disdainfully. Li Wei's refreshing.

Zhang Qiyuan's face was very ugly, and he couldn't help but admit that Wang Xiu was right, but he couldn't change his face, so he could only remain silent.

"Which is right and which is wrong, what's the use of talking about it now, it doesn't make any sense." Wang Xiu shook her head and said.

Zhang Qiyuan glared at Wang Xiu, and his heart was a little dark. What Wang Xiu said was not unreasonable, so what's the point of arguing and arguing?It's really boring, so I can't help but smile bitterly: "I agree with this sentence very much."

Wang Xiu nodded, and said indifferently: "That is, you and I are brothers and folks who know each other well, so I won't talk nonsense, so I won't send you off."

Zhang Qiyuan's face turned gray immediately, it seems that tomorrow is his death day, so he can't sleep tonight!Thinking that I was still unable to make up my mind to commit suicide, and was still executed in the end, I couldn't help but feel at a loss.

Tonight, is it time to end it by yourself?Do you have the courage?
"Don't worry, you will get a decent one." Wang Xiu glanced at Zhang Qiyuan, and said in a deep voice, "I still have 20 years of fine wine in the cellar here, and we brothers will have a good drink at midnight, and it will be regarded as seeing off the second brother."

"Eating alcohol in the middle of the night will hurt your health." Zhang Qiyuan said absently, and then he came to his senses. He will die tomorrow, so it is extremely ridiculous to be afraid of drinking alcohol tonight.

"If you hurt, you will hurt. It would be too bad if you don't eat the fine wine in the cellar for 20 years. I'm not afraid of you." Wang Xiu said with a smile.

"That's true. Here, let's get drunk." Since it was destined, and there was no way to escape, Zhang Qiyuan simply let go. Drunk life is better than waiting for death. It is rare that Wang Xiu gave him the opportunity to get drunk. It's better to be dead.

Wang Xiu prepared enough fine wine and hearty dishes. Zhang Qiyuan ate and drank to his heart's content. The so-called not drinking too much at night was thrown out of the sky, so that he was bedridden drunk and vomited unsightly.

Wang Xiu understood his mood quite well, and did not stop Zhang Qiyuan from going wild. When the sun rose, he ordered his servants to take a bath and change clothes for him, and put on the Confucian uniform he had prepared long ago.

Zhang Qiyuan continued to drink without any intention of stopping, his whole body was paralyzed by alcohol.

"Sir, is it too cheap for him?" Qin Min knew that Wang Xiu had dealt with Zhang Qiyuan, but he was a little bit reconciled. This kind of person who betrayed his country had to be punished by the canon, and he would be replaced by fine wine. new clothes.

Zhong Lirui glanced at Qin Min, smiled calmly, and said softly, "After all, I'm from the same village. If you do it too badly, I'm afraid people will say that you are heartless, and it's a scholarly story."

"This kind of person who betrays his family and country deserves to talk about friendship?" Qin Min has long been displeased with Zhang Qiyuan, and has been unable to bear it for two years. He has been stopped several times to kill this guy, and his heart is always suffocating.

Wang Xiu waved her hand and said patiently: "No, he is a minister after all, so he should have his own dignity."

Qin Min was very dissatisfied. Those treasonous ministers had no dignity. With the end of the war, the captured traitors were either beheaded or sent back to the Ming Dynasty for punishment. There was no dignity at all. Now it is Speaking of Zhang Qiyuan.

"My lord, a glass of dove wine is indeed very cheap, even if you give it to him decently, you can't be too solemn." Zhong Lirui did everything he could, but he still didn't want Zhang Qiyuan to die easily, he had to suffer a little bit.

"Okay, I always have to send him away. Since we are in Shangshui County, we can't go too far. Jiujiu can be regarded as family friendship." Wang Xiu said plainly, since he was executed, no matter what method he could use.

Shang Shui's elders watched, beheading was too cruel, and now he hated those who betrayed their family and country, and they might hear about his cruelty afterwards.

Now that Wang Xiu said it, Zhong Lirui and Qin Min couldn't say much, so they could only accept it silently.

"Seventh brother, you are also from Chenzhou, send the second brother of the Zhang family for the last journey on my behalf."

"Sir, I..." The boss Qin Min didn't want to, but seeing Wang Xiu's clear eyes, he couldn't continue what he said no matter what.

Zhong Lirui looked at Wang Xiu, thinking about what to say, but he still didn't understand why Wang Xiu was so calm, facing the eyes of the government and the opposition, he went south calmly.

Wang Xiu also glanced at Zhong Lirui, and found that he was full of thoughts, but he didn't explain or speak. He didn't want Zhong Lirui to go astray, and he didn't want him to take risks out of sight, so he could only take him by his side to restrain him.
