Chapter 998 Gu, I’m here to pick you up
A heavy rain slightly extinguished the "carnival" of some people in the capital.
On the tower of Xixuanmen, the officials stood here, looking at the imperial city;
The discussion has ended;
As the governor of the three sides, Zu Zhuming, Still guarding the three sides;
Zhong Tianlang hung up his banner to summon the general, led his army northward, entered Chu County, and responded to the three sides.
Meng Gong took the title of General Fuping and led his army into the northeast to guard the defense line of Lanyang City.
In addition, Le Huan, Han Laowu, etc., took the title of capital commander and led their ministries to the north to obey orders;
Whenever the Yan people attacked, in fact, the countermeasures that the Qian country could take , basically no different, because on the battlefield, Yan is strong and weak, which is a fact that has not changed for a hundred years.
It is impossible for the three sides to give up. It is impossible to give up no matter what. It is difficult to imagine that without the defense system of the three sides that stuck in the throats of the Yan people, then maybe ten years ago, the Yan-Qian front , it can be said to be fixed on the line of Bianhe River;
The national capital, Gyeonggi, directly became the front line.
Correspondingly, because the three sides are consumed there, every military action must be based on the three sides and repaired by tapping the corners;
In this case, strategic initiative is actually out of the question;
If you change several officials, the situation will be the same. After all, it is impossible for the new officials to spread the beans and create an army.
Looking at the Yan people,
After the previous generation of emperors had defeated almost all the thorns in the surrounding area, as long as the Yan people were willing, they could carry out long-distance war planning and effectively integrate the country's elite troops before the war started.
Therefore, in recent years, no matter who the Yan State goes to war with, on the frontal battlefield, the Yan people may not be as numerous as the opponent, but they can always put up enough elite numbers to prevent the other party from taking the initiative to seek cooperation. Your outdoor showdown.
However, what is different from the past is that Li Xundao personally sits in the capital city to command and dispatch the imperial army;
No matter what, he cannot be allowed to be exploited by the Yan people again.
"Guan family, it's raining heavily, let's go back."
Zhao Mugou ignored the suggestions of the eunuchs around him and continued to look at the capital under his command.
It has been some years since the last time the Yan people attacked the city. This once prosperous Shangjing City has also recovered its vitality. Although it is not as prosperous as it was in its prime, it still has a seventy or eighty percent flavor.
But the horrific memories left by the Yan people to Gan people have not slowed down with the passing of years;
On the contrary, when the news that the regent of the Yan country defeated the Chu army in the Chu country After hearing the news, the entire Shangjing City, no, the entire Daqian City, seemed to fall into a suffocating atmosphere.
Gan Ren was really scared of being beaten by the Yan people. After hearing the news that his allies had been beaten to the ground, his despair and sadness were hard to describe in words.
Therefore,
Zhao Mugou understands the carnival in the capital today.
Li Xundao said that they were fools,
not in a tone of gritted teeth and hatred, but in a very euphemistic way of lamenting;
That Facing the Black Dragon Flag gave everyone from the emperor to the head of Guizhou too many hazes.
Under such circumstances, no matter how rational a person is, they will inevitably abandon their rationality and immerse themselves in inappropriate indulgence.
This is an escape from reality.
But...how could it be possible to escape?
Over there, the regent has just defeated the Chu State, and news has come from the Chu State that for the sake of dignity, the Emperor of Chu has already surrendered to Jindong and surrendered his country;
This Perhaps, it was the Chu people's most helpless choice, and they also took eye drops.
But
Is the effect of the medicine so fast?
Since more than ten years ago, everyone has been looking forward to the civil strife of the Yan people;
First, they are looking forward to the rebellion of the Zhenbei Houfu,
Then they are looking forward to the rebellion of the King of Jingnan ,
Looking forward to King Pingxi's rebellion again,
I hope again and again, but I am disappointed again and again;
This country of Yan has been walking a tightrope in power from generation to generation, but it just won't fall.
On the contrary, the Jin, Chu, savages, and barbarians, the neighbors who were looking forward to its fall, all fell down one by one.
“Ji Chengjue, you are treating me as a fool.”
Zhao Mugou was talking to himself, but the eunuch beside him did not dare to say a word to answer.
“But unfortunately, many of my Qian people have been frightened by the Yan people’s sabers and will pretend to be stupid.”
Standing in the rain for a long time did not bring any harm to this Qianguo official’s family. There was so much peace and calmness that I couldn't even find the feeling of wind, rain and coldness. Instead, my lips, teeth, hands and feet felt a strange kind of heat.
Zhao Mugou turned around and
started walking towards his bedroom.
After he succeeded to the throne, he consecrated the queen and the concubine, a queen and a concubine, matching the configuration of the one from Yan Kingdom.
Of course, there are many unqualified women below. In this huge palace, to put it harshly, it is the rough-handed palace maids who are responsible for emptying toilets and washing clothes. If the emperor drinks wine, he will become more animalistic. After all, she is also the emperor's woman.
It’s just that Zhao Mu is obsessed with women and has no interest in them.
After he ascended the throne, he was used to sleeping alone for many nights. In his palace, the greenhouse built by the previous official was demolished. It was no longer like spring all year round, especially on this rainy night, as the wind leaked. There are so many places;
Because when it was built in the past, the issue of warmth was not considered at all. Instead, it was worried about being too warm, so special attention was paid to the ventilation design.
Zhao Mugou walked through a curtain.
Here, there were folders, maps, and various files sent to and sent away. As an official, he can be said to be very diligent.
But sometimes,
he would take some time off for himself on a certain day, do nothing, think about nothing,
just sit there,
For this painting;
This sitting is midnight.
The painting still hangs in front of Zhao Mugou, with two night pearls emitting light and shining on the scroll.
In the painting,
is a young woman, standing with a sword in her hand. She is beautiful, a little playful, and has a coldness that avoids strangers.
This is the woman in Zhao Mugou's dream.
He has looked back and followed her footsteps in his dreams again and again,
"Where are you?"
Zhao Mugou's eyes were a little confused.
“I have become a big official,
And you,
where are you now?
My... Queen. ”
……
“Squeak……”
The door was pushed open.
A tall figure like an iron tower appeared in the house.
He looked at his surroundings and took the initiative to walk to the bedside. He saw a young woman lying on the bed, breathing slowly and sleeping deeply.
Some bruises and scars could still be seen on her face;
Fan Li stood beside the bed like this,
Standing,
Standing,
Standing,
Until,
The girl lying on the bed widened her eyes angrily,< br>
Shouted:
“You big idiot, you can’t kiss me by yourself!”
For a woman to take the initiative to shout this, it shows how stupid this man is. .
However, what Fan Li is best at is scratching his head in embarrassing places;
As long as he starts scratching his head, any embarrassing thing will be over.
So,
he started scratching his head, showing his innocence.
The sword maid puffed her mouth, wrapped herself in a quilt, and sat up;
Then,
stretched her foot and kicked Fan Li;
Fan Li didn't move.
The sword maid did not intend to kick him, after all, this was not realistic.
Anger is always short-lived.
When a girl is really interested in you and really likes you, she will not be willing to flirt with you for too long and will deliberately wait for you to coax her.
True love can make people let go of their reserve;
Otherwise, it can only be said that she actually doesn't have you in her heart.
The sword maid turned her face sideways and said
“You have some conscience and know how to come see me.”
Fan Li blinked. , and then continued to scratch his head.
When a man has labels such as "honest" and "big wood", it often means... saving trouble and trouble.
A real hunter can often look more like an honest person than the so-called honest person.
You only need to stop here. For the rest, she can help you figure it out and help you figure it out.
The matter of Sword Maid and Chen Daxia was expedited through eight hundred miles and was quickly delivered to Zheng Fan, who was still preparing for the alliance ceremony with Chu.
Learning that the swordswoman was injured, Zheng Fan, as the commander-in-chief and the commander-in-chief of the army, did not hesitate to appoint Fan Li as the rear army general to support Liang Cheng, and led his army to Nanmen Pass to meet Liang Cheng. Join Gou Moli and the others.
After all, he has watched this girl grow up. Zheng Fan doesn’t think how much rice, flour, grain and oil she has eaten and how many pieces of cloth she has worn;
After all, when the Sword Master stayed, this girl’s existence also It can be considered as a contribution.
In the end, no matter what, it is still a bit emotional, and people do it to protect their own homes from disasters and injuries from others.
Zheng Fan generously and considerately sent her "Brother Fan Li" over.
"Big man, do you miss me?"
"Hmm."
"Do you think so or not?"
"Hmm."
"Stop humming!"
"Oh."
"Daxia Chen is in the third rank."
"Oh."
"He found a woman and lived with her for two years, and she was in the third rank. I am now in the fourth rank. I think I can do it too. Try this."
Fan Li asked: "Where is that woman?"
"..." Sword Maid.
...
"Are you going to fight?"
In the yard, Chen Daxia looked at Liang Cheng and asked.
"You just saw it?" Liang Cheng asked.
Chen Daxia nodded, he really saw it.
"Hit..."
Chen Daxia wanted to ask who to beat, but when he asked this question, he finally thought of the answer.
“Are you going to attack the Qian Kingdom again?”
“Yes.”
“Where is he?” Chen Daxia asked, “Where is Zheng Fanren?”
"He's at the back. He'll probably come with the logistics, food, supplies and soldiers in a while. You can wait for him here."
"No more waiting. It's not a good look to meet each other during the war."
"Where are you going?" Liang Cheng asked.
"Lanyang City."
"Change the place, I will lead the army to fight there immediately."
"I'm going to report the news."
"Believe me, although many of the Silver Armored Guards in Yan State have been eliminated in the past few years, we have such a large-scale mobilization of troops and horses here, and Nanmen Pass is directly connected to Lanyang City, the news must have been received over there. "
If the Silver Armored Guards are all like you, Master Chen, then there is really no need to purge them, and the more the better.
"I will go to Lanyang City." Chen Daxia said, "I will help defend the city."
"There is no need, you can go to Shangjing, we will fight there."
"Last time in Lanyang City, Zheng Fan let me go. The city was actually not defended, so it was destroyed. At the time, I thought it was normal. Later, I felt a little uneasy."
"Don't catch yourself. It’s a dead end, go somewhere else, we probably won’t fight there.”
Chen Daxia shook his head.
“As a Qianren, you must defend the city once for the Qianguo. Be conscientious and down-to-earth and defend the city once.”
“We are not fighting against the Qianguo this time.” Liang Cheng explained, "Zhao Mugou rebelled as a vassal king and forced the officials to death. This time we are going to help Qian Guo fight against the rebellion."
Chen Daxia looked at Liang Cheng,
Looking,
looking...
Liang Cheng is a zombie, and controlling his facial expressions without changing color is a basic ability;
Chen Daxia has also been watching carefully. He can watch for a long, long time.
Finally,
Chen Daxia said:
"Zheng Fan said that the emperor is the emperor, and the country is the country.
The banner you are flying is to fight against rebellion, but in the In my eyes, it’s just cutting.”
“Don’t you want ordinary people to live like the people in eastern Shanxi and eat steamed buns with fillings?”
The Qian Kingdom is rich, and Jiangnan is even richer, but... In the past sixty years, the Qian Kingdom has had the most frequent and largest peasant rebellions among the four major countries;
This means that the Qian Kingdom is actually not as rich as ordinary people. People, it doesn't matter much.
Scholar-officials could use their "wonderful pens to create flowers" to create a prosperous and prosperous period, but perhaps it was precisely because the rhetoric was too gorgeous that it concealed the underlying phosphorescence of the bones.
"We have invaded. From now on, the Gan people will be Yan people, our own people."
Chen Daxia asked back:
"How many times did the Yan army enter Qian and how many buns did they give?"
Liang Cheng replied: "That's because they didn't defeat them."
"How many Qian people were killed and how many were robbed?" Food, how many houses have been burned?"
"That is necessary to make it easier to defeat in the future."
Daxia Chen shook his head again,
Said:
"Master said that home is home, country is country, battlefield is battlefield, temple is temple, rivers and lakes...are rivers and lakes.
I think Zheng Fan is the greatest hero in my life, Daxia Chen. confidant,
< br>When his family is in trouble, his family is in trouble, and he is in trouble, I will help him and protect him, even if the sword is broken and everyone dies;
And when he is not Zheng Fan, he is the regent of Yan State
I know I'm not smart, and I can't do anything else in this life except practicing swordsmanship;
But I still feel that what you just said to me is being arrogant.
If Zheng Fan were here, he wouldn't say these extra words to me. He doesn't treat friends like you, so you are his subordinate. ”
Liang Cheng raised his hand,
The next moment,
Around the courtyard wall, soldiers leaned out, aiming their bows and crossbows at Chen Daxia.
Chen Daxia was not afraid, nor was he sarcastic, and even his expression did not change.
“As you said, I am not the Lord, so I will try to stun you.
It is precisely because I am not the Lord, so I let you go to Lanyang City and wait for me When the army attacks the city, many men will die by your sword
I have to be responsible for them,
terribly sorry. "
"Don't be sorry. "Master Chen silently drew out his sword and said calmly: "For me, there is no difference between dying here and dying on the wall of Lanyang City.
I am just a swordsman.
Master can’t save the Jin State. How can I save the Qian State? "
"Since you understand that the general trend is unstoppable, why..."
"As long as you live, you have to speak some truth, you have to be more truthful, you have to... insist on something."
Chen Daxia raised his sword,
looked at Liang Cheng,
< br>Then,
silently took ten steps back, widening the distance between himself and Liang Cheng.
This means that the archers around him can shoot him more confidently without involving Liang Cheng.
In the room,
the sword maid who looked at the situation in the courtyard through the window said anxiously:
"Zheng Fan will not kill Daxia Chen here. ”
The sword maid understands the truth.
She is actually very able to understand the whole story and the respective choices of Chen Daxia and Liang Cheng;
Because it makes so much sense, it makes irrelevant bystanders look incredible, even a little bit baffling.
Because all worlds like to claim to be a reasonable world, but no one really follows this principle. Some alternative people will inevitably be a little out of place.
Hearing what the sword maid said,
Fan Li replied directly:
"It was the Lord who ordered your master to be shot to death."
"But I looked away, it was a battlefield." The sword maid said.
“You looked away?”
“Do you think I will have a chance to kill that man named Zheng in this life?”
Fan Li shook his head;
"Go and tell him, aren't you all Mr. Wangfu? Go and tell him to let Master Chen go."
"I'm just a bricklayer."
"Go and tell him Don’t go!”
Fan Li was indifferent.
The sword maid waved her palm, and the sword hanging beside the bed was unsheathed, but in the middle, Fan Li stretched out his hand and grabbed it.
Seeing this, the sword maid pinched the sword secret with her fingertips and released the sword energy across the lower part of her neck:
"I hate this method, but I have to do it. After all, he is my junior brother. , and he just saved my life not long ago."
Fan Li nodded,
pushed the door open,
and walked out.
"The Lord has an order not to kill Master Chen without authorization."
Liang Cheng waved his hand, and all the soldiers around the courtyard wall withdrew.
Fan Li walked up to Chen Daxia and said:
"The Lord asked me to bring you something."
"What did Zheng Fan say."
"The Lord said that after the battle, I will treat you to a drink, whether you are standing, sitting or... lying down."
"Okay."
Chen Daxia sheathed his sword. , walked out of the yard.
Liang Cheng glanced at Fan Li,
said:
"You can come out later."
There is obviously dissatisfaction in these words.
Fan Li said: "She said she would not kill the master."
Liang Cheng glanced at the room and said:
"Otherwise, do you think the blind man would let her live until now?"
Liang Cheng turned and left. He still had a lot of military affairs to be busy with. After all, the army was about to leave the country.
Fan Li turned around and saw the sword maid had walked out of the house and came behind him.
“Wang Ling, is it true or false?”
Fan Li replied: "It's fake."
The sword maid didn't believe it,
said:
"You didn't lie to me?"
"Really It’s false, the Lord didn’t give this order.”
The sword maid smiled.
Fan Li also laughed;
The Lord indeed did not give the order to Chen Daxia alone, because there was no need to give it at all. None of the demon kings would not have the eyesight to see that in this situation , surrounded and killed Chen Daxia.
So, the Lord has not given any orders. Today, Daxia Chen can come and go freely.
The reason why Liang Cheng came here was to hope that Chen Daxia would go to Lanyang City firmly, because Liang Cheng had no intention of attacking the city at all.
...
On this day,
the rolling iron hoofs shook the entire Lanyang City.
The soldiers and civilians of Lanyang can see the almost invisible black-armored Yan army to the east from the top of the city;
At the same time,
A royal flag that can stop a child from crying on dry land
stands high in the center of the army!
On this day,
Emperor Dayan’s Jinwu Dragon Paper,
For a hundred years,
Appeared in front of the Three Sides Pass for the first time.
The emperor sat on the royal chariot,
looking ahead and looking around at the densely packed formations of the Yan officers and soldiers;
ruling the world,
In the court hall, turning his hands to make clouds and turning his hands to make rain, the emperor is arbitrary,
At this moment, my palms were actually sweating and I was getting nervous.
Eunuch Wei next to him very considerately released energy from his sleeves to cool off His Majesty.
The emperor let out a long sigh of relief,
swearing:
“The man named Zheng really deceived me.”
Eunuch Wei was a little confused. At this moment, if there was a mistake in the tacit understanding between His Majesty and the Regent, how would this war end?
But soon,
The emperor said again:
"He actually told me that leading troops to fight is very simple. Just sit here and pretend as much as possible. Just be calm and calm.
His surname is Zheng, he is really fooling me like a three-year-old child,
Even if I die, I won’t believe it.
His surname is Zheng, and he always wins battles by relying on this method. ”
On the same day,
Zheng Fan, the regent of Dayan riding on Pixiu,
finally walked out of the valley.
The prince looked far away,
uttered a sigh,
“Jiangnan, Gu, we are finally here.”
Xie Yuan, who had been accompanying the commander, answered with a smile. :
"It is said that this country in the south of the Yangtze River is a place of great splendor and beauty, with countless romances and poetry. I wish I was born here, raised here, and buried here, so that I can live up to the fate of the world.
The boy knows that the prince has outstanding literary talent, but he doesn't know. Have you ever imagined that in this life, you are a Jiangnan person? ”
This is not simply flattering, because everyone in the world knows that the Regent of Dayan has many famous works, which are handed down from generation to generation even Ganren who has always been indifferent to Yan people have to hold their noses and applaud. Chapter.
Zheng Fan shook his head and said:
“Don’t tell me, I really thought about this.
It's just that
if you eat too much of this sweet food, you will get tired of it easily.
Thinking about it,
this golden horse and iron horse thousands of miles away is more suitable for me.
Even in the south of the Yangtze River, the warblers and swallows are singing and dancing, and the literati and poets are singing about the beauty of the scenery;
It is far less than the possibility of saying ‘die for me’. ”
The next moment,
the prince’s eyes darkened slightly,
his expression also became solemn:
“Gu,
Coming to pick you up. "(End of this chapter)
