    Guo Shao loved to see the scenes of men and horses in armor marching in formation, and he also liked to listen to the coordinated footsteps and the sound of metal grinding, like a symphony.  ¡Û¡Ý Downstairs of Jinzhou City, columns of heavy infantry entered the city one after another. The "click-click" footsteps were like a rhythmic bass.  At first glance, the cavalry's slow-moving movement looks like a brisk jump or dance. However, if you look closely, they are walking with four hooves without jumping. The horses' posture is elegant and powerful.  Rows of infantry, teams of cavalry, the same scene was repeated below the city tower, but Guo Shao stood above and watched for a long time.  He turned to Wei Renpu next to him and said, "Does Deputy Wei think this scene is boring?" Wei Renpu bent down slightly and said calmly, "It's very interesting for me to see it." Guo Shao pondered for a while and said, "People always want to have everything.  Unfortunately, no matter how strong a person is, his abilities are limited. If thousands of people can do one thing together, the power cannot be underestimated. So whenever I see such a scene, I am always a little excited.  " Wei Renpu thought seriously, paused for a moment and then agreed seriously: "Your Majesty is aware of everything." Guo Shao raised his head and looked across the row of high-flying Xu Jun flags, looking at the endless green field.  , the Xiaoling River meanders across the vast land, and the sight can no longer be seen further.  Not only is one's strength and running speed limited, but one's field of vision is also very limited.  Gao Huaide lived up to his expectations and captured this important town that was originally built by the Han people of the Tang Dynasty in half a month. However, Guo Shao was not very excited. Instead, he felt that his heart was still hanging on the ground.  Jinzhou is flat on all sides and faces the sea to the east. It has rich water systems and fertile land; the city is the ruling center of this area.  If the imperial court had captured this place, it would have been a remarkable achievement.  But Guo Shao mobilized so many troops to personally conquer the Northeast, not just for one city.  He is waiting for news from the Liao Kingdom.  This feeling reminded him of the first time he rose to prominence: killing Zhang Yuanhui with one arrow.  The timing and angle were very good at that time, and Guo Shao was also very confident in his long-term archery practice, but he was very nervous and worried before the moment of releasing the arrow.  Because no one can be 100% sure about some things. When Guo Shao was in Lingzhou, he made a mistake when he killed the party members without hiding Brother Ling.  It's like seducing the girl he was attracted to when he was young. He has obviously taken advantage of it, but he is always cautious, fearing that she will fly away if she is frightened People and horses are active in and around Jinzhou City all day long, with troops stationed, screening prisoners, and comforting them.  People, everything is complicated, but Guo Shao doesn't pay attention to it.  When he had repeatedly thought about and designed the former camp military mansion, he had already put in today's hard work in advance.  Until the next evening, the ministers and generals who accompanied the army gathered together to have dinner at the temporarily requisitioned camp of the Chinese army. The food was the same as that of all the officers and men, and even Guo Shao was no exception.  Baking hot wheat cakes is very dry and tooth-consuming.  There are vegetable leaves in the soup, dried sea fish and sometimes bacon.  Making the soup this way saves time and even salt, since dried fish and bacon are very salty. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out out out of curiosity, Guo Shao would like to talk to everyone about some anecdotes.  At this time, Gao Huaide smiled and said: "Master Shi, I heard that once in the east of Hedong, the rebels had no military discipline, robbed the people, and kidnapped the girls. The Duke of Shi saw it. The Duke of Shi put the rebels to death on the spot, and then beheaded the girls as well.  After hearing this story, the general never understood why Duke Shi wanted to kill the innocent people as well." The chatter and laughter in the room suddenly died down, and the atmosphere became a little subtle, and everyone paid attention to Shi Yan's reaction.  .  Guo Shao sat in the upper position without saying a word, still chewing the wheat cake.  The wheat cakes eaten by the army are very thick, so you must chew them more, otherwise they will be difficult to swallow. After chewing them more, you can taste the unique sweetness of the grains.  Guo Shao guessed that when Shi Yan killed Queen Qi of the Liao Kingdom, he must have had some small connection with Gao Huaide, making fun of or showing off.  After Gao Huaide captured Jinzhou, he felt confident enough to speak, and he responded in public.  Anyway, there is no shortage of friction between these generals and civilian officials, especially Shi Yan, Guo Shao is not surprised.  Shi Yan threw the round wheat pancake with a chip in his hand into the soup in the iron cup with a "pop", and the vegetable soup splashed all over the floor. He squinted his eyes and said without changing his expression: "Kill them together, I feel comfortable, and save trouble.  Gao Huaide gave a thumbs up and sneered: "I admire you." Shi Yan added: "Those soldiers traveled thousands of miles and fought with their heads high. They deserved to burn, kill and loot, but I can't ask a bunch of women to watch them die."  Just then, the eunuch Yang Shiliang walked into the hall, walked straight to Guo Shao from the side, leaned in Guo Shao's ear and whispered: "The Liao Kingdom has sent a secret envoy to Jinzhou. They have just arrived."  " After hearing this, Guo Shao let out a sigh of relief and said to everyone: "The Liao Kingdom is here to seek peace. " "nbsp;Shi Yan had completely forgotten the quarrel just now, and immediately shouted: "Let the leader of the Liao Kingdom proclaim himself a minister and call him daddy, and the officials will agree to their request for peace." Wei Renpu glared at Shi Yan angrily and said, "Then let's talk  Shit!" Civilian Lu Duoxun said seriously: "Before the expedition, everyone discussed politics in front of the officials. Otherwise, there is probably nothing we can do in the thousands of miles of grassland and the vast cold land of the Northeast.  " Guo Shao slapped his thigh and said, "I'll wait for the envoy for two days, and I'll send the cavalry out of Jinzhou early tomorrow morning and wander a few times in the direction of Liaoyang. " Lu Duoxun clasped his fists and said, "Do the Liao people think that we are not here?  Are you sincere in the peace talks?" Guo Shao suddenly changed his expression and said with a smile: "Be calm. The Liao people are fighting or making peace, not because they think they can continue to compete with Da Xu.  Even if you send the princess money to plead, it will not have any real effect. "" The Liao king's tent is still stationed in the western plain of Daheishan, and many horses are gnawing grass, but it is not fat, and the grass seeds in autumn are just there.  Gain weight.  Spring thunder rumbled deep in the mountains, and the entire land was shrouded in a lingering haze.  But the most unhappy person in the Wangzhang camp should be Xiao Siwen.  He said something to his confidant Xiao Abidi not long ago: "The ewe is grazing desperately, swaying the goat milk bulging in its belly, showing its owner its use value." The most shameless in the field of power  What happened was that he looked like a bitch in front of his former subordinates!  Thinking about the fall of Youzhou (Xiao Siwen never felt that it was his own responsibility, there was no hope of reinforcements from the Liao court, who could defend the isolated city under the siege of hundreds of thousands of troops), Xiao Siwen fought back with all his strength, and blamed the great Liao Emperor Yelujing.  On the head!  Yelu Xiezhen and others respected and admired him and were humble.  And now, Xiao Siwen has been reduced to the point where he is trying every means to please Yelu Xiezhen.  Xiao Siwen has been holding back shame and unwillingness in his heart, but more importantly, he is helpless.  The situation of peace negotiations with Xu Guo could not be controlled, and Xiao Siwen gradually lost power.  He often woke up from his dreams and couldn't remember what nightmares he had, but then he would think of the people he had offended, had hatred for, and was dissatisfied with over the years. There were too many people to count.  Xiao Siwen climbed up from the collapse again. When his breath calmed down a little, he walked to a pair of bronze mirrors that he brought with him, looked at his face in it, and then tilted his head to look at the profile on the side.  He straightened his neck and looked in the mirror with a calm and upright posture. He felt that his facial features were upright and his appearance was very good.  He gradually found his confidence.  "There are ups and downs in the world, and Xiao Siwen believes that he can overcome this difficulty.  From now on, he will still be a Khitan nobleman with good manners, loyal to the country, and noble status.  Xiao Siwen gently smoothed his temples with his palms, picked up his hat and put it on, turned around and walked out of the tent.  Riding horse, he walked into the king's tent unimpeded. Many ministers of the Liao Kingdom had already arrived, and the Great Khan Yelvxian also sat on his tiger-skin chair.  Xiao Siwen stepped forward and bowed with his hands on his chest, then found his position near the front.  People around are talking a lot.  The King of Room B, who was standing nearby, said to Xiao Siwen: "The secret envoy from the royal account has returned and praised the Emperor of Xu's peace talks. First, the place for peace talks must be within the territory of Xu. Second, Daliao should send a person with status as an envoy to formulate a plan for the North.  The Privy Envoy of the Court or the King of the North Court." Xiao Siwen was shocked and asked in a deep voice, "When did you get the news?"  Who is willing to go to negotiate peace on the enemy's territory?  Yelu Xiezhen is now the most powerful person in Daliao. He is definitely not willing to go Then only Xiao Siwen will go!  Xiao Siwen's heart suddenly fell into the ice valley again, and he hurriedly asked the King of Room B: "What else did the secret envoy say?" He hoped to get as much information as possible so that he could think of something.  The King of Room B said: "After the Xu army occupied Jinzhou, they immediately sent rangers to Liaoyang to harass and spy on the military situation. They were not too interested in negotiating peace. It took two days for the secret envoy to meet the important figures of the Xu state." Xiao Siwen immediately said loudly: "Big  Khan, the people of Xu State are not sincere in negotiating peace. How can we negotiate peace in such a situation?" Yelu Xiezhen said calmly: "It's not that Xu State does not want a truce. How much benefit can the southerners get from fighting? However, Xu State should form an alliance with Goryeo to attack Daliao.  If they want to make peace with Daliao, things will be more complicated; and what the Xu people want is for Daliao's cavalry to stop harassing the border in the future, and they don't trust Daliao very much. Looking at the current situation, there is still a good chance of peace.  "Xiao Siwen immediately asked, "If you agree to Xu Guoren's conditions, who will negotiate for peace?" Yelu Xiezhen stared at Xiao Siwen with a self-explanatory expression.  Xiao Siwen almost cried."Emperor Xu hates me very much. If I send him to his door, can I come back alive?" Yelu Xiezhen kindly persuaded: "This peace negotiation is not a trivial matter, and everyone in the world knows it. If Blacksmith Guo takes the opportunity to avenge himself,  , Isn¡¯t it stingy and unfaithful to the world? Duke Xiao doesn¡¯t need to worry too much, there is no need to worry about his life.¡± 8
