Chapter Seventy-Four: Hong Xiguan Receives the Order

Before entering, Li Yuanying warned herself in her heart, don't cry, Li Yuanying, you can't cry, but when she saw Hong Longjia slowly opening her eyes, her tears were like a flood that burst the embankment, and she wiped her tears with her sleeve, and her lips trembled: "Uncle Hong!"

Hong Longjia beckoned, and Li Yuanying sat on the stool obediently, just bowing her head and wiping her tears.

"It's all great masters of cultivation, why are you still crying?"

"Uncle Hong, don't say it, I'll take you to Tai'an City immediately, there is an imperial doctor there, and there is no disease that can't be cured. Li Yuanying said.

"Yuan Ying, don't toss, life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, my own body knows it myself, but it's not the right time to die, and I haven't seen you get married yet. "In the heart of the general of the Zhenxi Army, the safety of the border pass is very important, especially his own life, but it is not as good as the marriage of His Majesty the Emperor.

Li Yuanying didn't get angry for the first time, she just lowered her head and cried, like a child who was angry and wronged.

"Come, Yuan Ying, tell Uncle Hong what kind of person is that His Royal Highness Nanliang?" Hong Longjia stretched out his hand to wipe Li Yuanying's tears, he knew a lot of stories from Chu Renfeng.

"He doesn't have much to say, just a slut. Li Yuanying said.

Hong Longjia's face was strange: "Back then, your mother also commented on your father's emperor, it seems that this His Royal Highness Nanliang is a good person, but unfortunately, the old ancestor and Zhao Duling didn't see it, otherwise I don't know what to be happy about." ”

Li Yuanying pulled the shirt of the dragon armor of the dragon: "Uncle Hong, don't say it." ”

Hong Longjia laughed, involving the back wound, a burst of heart-piercing pain, cold sweat uncontrollably, since he took over as the general of the Zhenxi Army, the armor has never been lowered, and now he is seriously ill, after taking off the armor, the back is rotten, and the little maid who saw it turned pale with fright.

"Yuan Ying, there are a few things that Uncle Hong needs to tell you. Hong Longjia gasped and said breathlessly.

Li Yuanying got up, gently lifted Hong Longjia, and put the soft pillow on his back: "Uncle Hong, you say, Yuanying listen." ”

Hong Longjia reached out and touched Li Yuanying's head: "I didn't tell you before, I was afraid that you would be stressed, but now it's time to tell you." Yuan Ying, the world is divided into four parts, the Great Wei Guzhong, three sides of the enemy, respectively set up the Zhennan Army, the Zhenbei Army and the Zhenxi Army, three side troops, the whole more than 600,000 people, for the Great Wei is a major burden, but this is also a helpless thing, the Zhennan Army let the Southern Liang Domain sit in the town, one is that the Southern Liang soldiers are many generals, the country is rich and the people are strong, and the other is the Southern Liang Domain, this person is conceited, disdainful of small trips, that is, it can contain the Southern Liang, and it can confuse the public. You should know that the Zhenbei Army resisted the Xiongnu with the Great Wall, and the Zhennan Army and the Southern Liang each set up the north and south of the Great River, while the Zhenxi Army was in the upper reaches of the Taihang Mountain and the Yellow River, taking advantage of the complex terrain and mediating with Western Chu. In fact, in the early years of Zhongtang, he had already calculated that the worst situation of the Great Wei was that he was attacked on three sides, and he was in the scene of independence and no support, and the world was defeating Wei, and the Lord Zhongtang naturally had a countermeasure, according to the layout of the Lord Zhongtang, the border armies on three sides could retreat or be defeated, and if they wanted to retreat, they must be defeated at the same time. ”

Li Yuanying frowned: "Uncle Hong, I don't understand. ”

Hong Longjia took a breath: "Shorten the battle line by retreating and defeating, strive for buffer space, hoard one of the three border armies, and at the same time let the armies of the Xiongnu, Southern Liang and Western Chu face each other, they are not our Great Wei monolith, they will inevitably intrigue with each other, beware of each other, and that is the opportunity of our Great Wei, with the old General Song to control the overall situation, and then conduct an unprecedented large-scale corps battle!"

Li Yuanying gradually understood the meaning: "But where should I retreat?"

Hong Longjia opened his mouth and said: "With Tai'an City as the center, Tongguan, Zhangjiakou, and Datong as the northern line to the north, Hanzhong and Changsheng to the west as the western line, and Huai'an, Shangqiu, and Nanyang as the southern line to the south, the three border armies are the backbones of each other, forming an impermeable defense line. A few years ago, the battle of Guliangzhou has proved that the joint operation of the three border armies on the local battlefield is not only feasible, but also fruitful, and the large corps of hundreds of thousands of people should not be a problem, especially at this time, the old general Song, Xiguan and Zhang Muzhi, the old general is naturally the highest, the most noble, there is no power struggle, if you can seize that fleeting opportunity, Great Wei has a chance to win!"

Because of his excitement, Hong Longjia couldn't stop coughing, and the sweat oozing from his brows was dense.

"Uncle Hong, take a break. ”

Hong Longjia waved his hand again and again: "Uncle Hong is a little worried, in the early years, Huang Chunfeng, Wei Mocheng, Liu Baitong, Kong Weiting, Shi Weihan, Zhao Duling, Han Xianba, we have not many masters of Great Wei, but in the past few years, the damage has been serious, and after counting, there are only Yuan Ying, you and Xiguan, and you are just a little woman, you have worked hard." ”

"It's not hard, it's Uncle Hong who is hard. Li Yuanying lowered her head and said.

Hong Longjia touched Li Yuanying's head again, the rough big hands were burly and powerful, with a different kind of warmth, which made people feel at ease: "Yuanying, after Uncle Hong dies, Xueyong Pass can be blown up and temporarily block the Western Chu army, and Uncle Hong will be buried under Xueyong Pass after his death, and an old bone can also contribute to the Great Wei, no loss!"

Li Yuanying shook his head: "Uncle Hong, you will definitely be able to live a long life." ”

Hong Longjia smiled faintly: "The matter of life and death, Uncle Hong sees it very lightly, in the future, if you encounter danger, let Xiguan go, you hide behind your back, don't come out, be careful of danger." ”

As he was talking, Hong Xiguan walked in with the support of others, and when he heard Hong Longjia's words, his face was impermanent, and he just lowered his head and said, "General." ”

"Hmm. Hong Longjia had a cold face, and hummed lightly, facing Li Yuanying, and a warm and warm smile.

Li Yuanying got up and forcibly pulled Hong Xiguan to sit down, a team of fathers and sons were relatively speechless, Hong Xiguan lowered his head and looked at his feet, Hong Longjia grinned at the corners of his mouth, and his eyes turned to the sky.

Li Yuanying pushed Hong Xiguan's shoulder vigorously, and the deputy general of the Zhenxi Army suddenly spoke: "The general's injury?"

"It doesn't matter. Hong Longjia said casually, and asked casually, "Your injury?"

"It doesn't matter. ”

The two fell into a long silence again, Li Yuanying pinched Hong Xiguan's shoulder fiercely, and twisted it vigorously, Hong Xiguan was like a big green worm lying on the ground, you poke him, and he moved: "The border defense and government affairs of the Zhenbei Army have been sorted out, and there is a general, Su Mingchuan and others don't want to step into the Central Plains half a step." ”

Hong Longjia snorted lightly again.

Li Yuanying sighed and sank her voice: "Hong Xiguan takes the order!"

Hong Xiguan was slightly stunned, got up and knelt down: "Hong Xiguan takes the order." ”

"I, I ordered you to call the general a father. ”
