Chapter 621 Wrong Wearing a Monk's Robe as a War Robe
On the second day, the snow finally stopped, but the silver-gray rain continued continuously, and the coldness was even worse than the chill of nine cold days. a bit.
Fortunately, the army had already received thick winter coats before departure.
Shang Ruyi came to the gate of the military camp and looked at the soldiers wearing khaki cotton clothes, each of them looking fresh.
In the army of the Daye Dynasty, the winter clothes of the soldiers were all dark blue, but before Yu Wenyuan ascended the throne, in order to control the army, he had people change all the outer layers of the winter clothes that had been prepared in the warehouse. The clothes were made of khaki material to make it easier for the armies of the old dynasty to be distinguished, and also to make these soldiers more aware of who they were fighting for.
"The Dasheng Dynasty claims to be Tude and Shang Huang. The color chosen by the emperor is just right."
A familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind. Shang Ruyi turned around hurriedly and saw Shen Wuzheng standing in front of her. Next to him, because of the cold weather, he also put on a suit of cotton-padded clothes, but it did not look bloated. On the contrary, it made his face more handsome and elegant, making him particularly eye-catching in this military camp.
Shang Ruyi immediately smiled and said: "Brother."
Shen Wuzheng also looked at her with a smile, but after just one glance, his face darkened slightly: "Why didn't you - didn't rest? Okay?”
“Huh?”
Shang Ruyi was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously reached out and touched his eyes.
Although she didn't have time to look in the mirror when she got up early, she just asked Wuxue to tie up her hair in a hurry, get dressed and set off, but she also understood to some extent that her eyes must be dark after being up almost all night last night. It was red and swollen, but Shen Wuzheng couldn't hide it.
She immediately sneered and said: "Thinking about leaving today, some..."
Shen Wuzheng looked down at her for a while, and his eyebrows suddenly frowned.
But he didn’t say much. He just sighed softly and said: "No matter how the battle outside is, your body is the most important. From now on, don’t endure it like this. Do it to yourself. Not good.”
Shang Ruyi immediately smiled and said: "I understand."
Shen Wuzheng shook his head again, then waved his hand and said: "Hurry up and get on your horse, we are about to set off. In the army, I can't take care of you too much. , You must take care of yourself."
Shang Ruyi smiled and said: "Okay."
After that, he turned and walked to the front of the team, where there was already Wuxue. The horse was waiting for her. Shen Wuzheng's eyes took her all the way to the front, and then slowly moved his eyes to the other side of the team, the leader Yu Wenye, and saw that he had also put on a series of neat clothes, even thick cotton clothes. It didn't affect his wasp-waisted ape's back. He put on the armor and jumped onto his horse neatly. His figure was as strong as a leopard. Even just looking at it, there was a heavy evil aura.
But looking at him, Shen Wuzheng's eyes gradually condensed with a layer of frost.
As if sensing the cold gaze, Yu Wenye was about to turn around when he caught sight of the most familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar figure in the team next to him. He suddenly took a deep breath and looked attentively——
That was Yuwen Sui who was also wearing armor.
As soon as he saw him, Yu Wenye's eyes flickered slightly.
His elder brother, they have been getting along with each other since he was sensible. Most of the time, Yuwen Sui has been a gentle and gentle young man. After that, he traveled to practice, and although he had little time to go home, But every time we meet, they all wear white shirts and hold rosary beads, just like the white clouds in the sky passing by the world by chance. No matter how long they stay, they refuse to be stained with the color of the world of mortals.
However, this white cloud finally returned to this earthly world, and at this moment, it even put on a military uniform.
He was very tall, and although he was not burly, he had a sense of vigor that implied strength. The black hammer armor worn on his body was indescribably appropriate. In addition, her long hair was tied neatly behind her head, which revealed her handsome and graceful face, her brows were smiling and elegant, and she had the elegant temperament of a elegant Confucian general.
Looking at him like this, Yu Wenye’s eyes deepened.
But Yuwen Ye met his gaze, as open as a clear water. He even looked down at himself, and then smiled at Yu Wenye: "What, isn't it appropriate?"
"..."
Yu Wenye looked at him for a while and shook his head: "No, it's not inappropriate."
"Then why does the second brother look at me like this?"
"My brother never thought that the imperial brother would look so suitable in military uniform. It's like——"
"Like what?"< br>
“It seems,”
Yu Wenye’s eyes flickered, like the unfrozen water surface in winter, broken by something, struggling hard to stir up thousands of ripples, with a cold light. Facing such cold light, Yu Wenzuo's eyes flickered a little.
At this time, I heard Yu Wenye say in a deep voice: "It's like the emperor brother mistakenly wore a monk's robe as a war robe all these years."
"..."
Yu Wenye's expression changed. Congeal.
After being silent for a while, he smiled slightly and said: "Maybe."
"..." "But, whether it is a monk's robe or a war robe, the war robe is on the body, and the soldiers are on the body. On the battlefield, I will give my best.”
"..."
"I hope the second brother will be the same. Because this battle is also related to the safety of the third brother. I also ask the second brother to bring him back safely."< br>
Yu Wenye said: “Of course.”
While they were talking, a horse and a horse came beside them. It was Shang Ruyi and Yu Mingyue. Although they were both women, the two of them were dressed in strong clothes and the way they rode forward did not look like a woman at all. On the contrary, the army behind him made him look somewhat heroic.
Looking behind them, the two groups of soldiers were also lined up neatly. Those who mounted their horses and those who stood in line. Looking back, they saw that the men were strong and fierce, and they were fierce and fierce. They were hunting with flags and murderous. The soldiers were all red-eyed. He was holding back his energy, as if he was waiting to charge into the battle at any time and kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds.
Seeing them, Shang Ruyi's eyes lit up, and then his mood became a little heavy.
She vaguely remembered that just a year ago, when Chu Yang conscripted troops to conquer Liaodong, the soldiers were still running away, and some places had even begun to recruit women as soldiers because his conquests were endless. , not giving the people a chance to breathe, and even less stingy with military exploits. But Yu Wenyuan was different. Although he did not conquer the world immediately, he had been fighting for half his life. He understood the reasons for fighting and the merits of fighting, and the importance to soldiers.
This expedition to Taiyuan was the first battle after the founding of the Dasheng Dynasty. It was to recapture the land of Longxing, and the two princes personally sent troops, which shows its importance and the "position of the prince" As the final reward, once these soldiers who accompany the army are victorious, they will be able to assist. How can they spare their lives?
So, after lining up in order, some soldiers hit their shields with their swords as usual, making a loud rumble, and the soldiers shouted in unison: "Send troops!"
"Send troops!"
"Send troops!"
The shouts soared into the sky, almost breaking through the dark clouds on the zenith, and the sound shook the sky!
Yu Wenye and Yu Wenzhen looked at each other and did not waste any more time. They both stood on their horses and rode around in front of the team for a while, holding up the weapons in their hands. After attracting everyone's attention, At the same time, they raised their voices and shouted: "Let's go!"
Immediately, the two teams of troops set off along the east and west lines!
After they left Tongguan, the eastern route was to advance along the mountain road, while the western route was to go down a slope and walk along the Yellow River with ice floes floating on the water. Just when Yuwen Sui was riding his horse, he was ready to step onto the mountain road. The main road on the eastern front At that moment, he suddenly turned back and looked at Yu Wenye and the slender figure beside him. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said: "Second brother, younger brother and sister, be careful along the way."
Shang Ruyi turned to look at him One glance.
However, this was naturally not the time for her to speak. Yu Wenye tightened his grip on the reins and said calmly: "Thank you, brother."
After saying that, he rode the horse off the ground. slope.
Shang Ruyi didn't say much. He only saluted Yuwen Sui and then rode up to follow him.
Soon, the two groups of men disappeared into the falling rain.
|
We walked along the Yellow River for two days. At noon on the third day, the drizzle that had tortured them for two days finally stopped, and everyone felt relieved. tone.
What is even more gratifying is that a gray earth city appears on the horizon ahead.
That is, there is almost only a small dot of Yicheng on the map.
According to the description of the soldiers Chu Zhengfei sent out to meet Yu Wencheng before but were defeated, the place where Yu Wencheng was besieged was in the valley northwest of Yicheng, about four or five miles away.
At this moment, they are probably several miles away from Yicheng, and about ten miles away from there.
As soon as Yu Wenye raised his hand, the army behind him immediately stopped.
Shang Ruyi turned to look at him, wanting to ask something, but the two of them had not had a conversation in the past two days, which made it difficult for her to speak even if she had something serious to do. Instead, she kept leading the troops behind. At this time, Shen Tutai rode forward and said to Yu Wenye: "Your Highness, why don't you leave?"
Yu Wenye did not speak immediately, only looked up at the sky and then around.
The rain has stopped, but the surrounding vegetation, which has been soaked by rain and snow for the past few days, is still wet at this moment, exuding a bone-chilling chill. Even the ground flattened by horse hooves under your feet contains water vapor, and you step on it. , the rain poured out gurglingly.
He thought for a while and said: "Set up camp first."
"Set up camp?"
Hearing this, Shen Tutai was stunned for a moment.
But he glanced at Yu Wenye's deep eyes again, but didn't say much. He just looked around, and then asked: "Where to camp?"
Yu Wenye glanced ahead again, then raised his hand, pointed at a high mountain in the west of Yicheng and said, "Just go to the back of that mountain."
Everyone followed the direction of his finger. go.
Although the rain has stopped, the heavy clouds overhead still linger, so the light is dim and I can barely see the outline of the mountain, but I can also clearly see the layers of white light shining through the mountain. , as if there is a backlog of white snow. But when you look closely, you can see that the mountains are covered with pines and cypresses, which shine white because the rain has not dried.
That is Cangbai Mountain to the west of Yicheng.
This Cangbai Mountain stretches for several miles, but on the back it looks like it has been cut by a knife, erecting a thousand-foot cliff - if the direction is correct, the mountain wall on the back of Cangbai Mountain will be facing Yu Wencheng's quilt The besieged valley!
