Chapter 4 When the enemy is encountered, the righteous courage will be punished

Han Xiaoyue met Long Yan from Qingyun Village in the alley and hid the veil she accidentally dropped. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info When Long Yan left, she didn't return Han Xiaoyue's jade pendant to him. It seems that the two of them left each other a token of seeing each other again.

Just when he was still reminiscing about Long Yan's delicate appearance, Han Tao's military order summoned him from the deep alley to Qi Yuanzhen's mansion.

In less than half an hour, Han Xiaoyue hurried to the gate of Qi Mansion. At the same time as the family reported inside, Han Xiaoyue ordered his relatives to stay outside the door, and he strode into the Qi Mansion.

In the living room, Qi Fu and Han Tao were sitting on the main seat, waiting for him.

As soon as he entered the door, Han Tao stood up and said angrily, "Xiaoyue, don't hurry up and make amends to Lord Qi!" Why is military law enforced on the streets? Don't you know how to take it back to the barracks and hand it over to the department for trial? ”

As soon as the words fell, before Han Xiaoyue could explain, Qi Yuanzhen hurriedly stepped forward to explain: "Old General Han, quickly calm your anger!" It's not all Ling Gongzi's fault! ”

Han Xiaoyue clenched her fists and arched her hands and said, "Father, Lord Qi." I did this to appease the people in Jiangyuan City. In the past few days, there have been frequent incidents of soldiers bullying the people in Jiangyuan City, and the people have already held a grudge against our reinforcements. I just want to make an example of the other soldiers, and let the people in the city know what will happen if they violate the military rules! ”

Han Tao stretched out his hand and pointed at Han Xiaoyue, and said angrily, "Ridiculous! Did you know that this will cause panic among the people! What a mess! ”

Qi Yuanzhen saw that Han Tao was really angry, so he hurriedly said, "Hey, I'll deal with the people's affairs." It's just that the two of you have to manage the affairs of the army well, and don't have similar incidents again. As he spoke, he said to Han Xiaoyue, "Virtuous nephew, just now I discussed with your father how to resolve this matter of conflict between the military and the people. I don't know what the virtuous nephew has to say? ”

Han Xiaoyue thought for a while and said, "Actually, the juniors think that this is not difficult. ”

"Oh?" Qi Yuanzhen said, and let them sit down, "Come, let's sit down and talk." ”

After the three of them sat down, Han Xiaoyue continued: "It has been a month since my father and I came here, and Song Jun has disappeared. In my opinion, it is better to withdraw from Jiangyuan City and set up camp outside the city. First, avoid contact with the people in the city and reduce conflicts; Second, in the event of a surprise attack by the Song army, setting up a camp outside can avoid the Song army from besieging the city. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone. ”

Qi Yuanzhen listened to this, and secretly rejoiced in his heart: "In this way, it is really great." If these words come out of my mouth, I will be suspected of rejecting them, and I am afraid that the old Korean general will not be pleased. If you say it from Xiaoyue's mouth, it's just time to push the boat down the river. ”

Han Tao was originally opposed, but he was afraid that this move would cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers. However, it seems that this is the only solution.

Han Xiaoyue saw that neither her father nor Qi Yuanzhen reacted, so she continued: "I don't know what other good plans my father and Lord Qi have? ”

Qi Yuanzhen pretended to sigh and said, "Alas! Lord Ben didn't want to do this, the two generals and the generals came all the way for Jiangyuan City, so they should live in the city. It's just that the military-civilian conflict is too serious, and it's helpless! ”

Han Tao waved his hand and said, "Where did Lord Qi come from?" Contribute to the country and share the worries of the saints! That being the case, so be it! So I went back and gave the order, and two days later we set out our camp and set out outside the city. With that, Han Tao and Han Xiaoyue stood up at the same time.

Seeing this, Qi Yuanzhen hurriedly stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Then, please ask General Han to go back and appease the soldiers well, Qi Mou is here to thank you!" When the camp is set up, Qi must personally ask the three armies! ”

"Well said, well said! Master Qi stays! After Han Tao finished speaking, he walked out the door.

"Report!" At this time, the family suddenly ran over and said, "Lord Qi, someone from Qingyun Village outside the door is asking to see you!" ”

"Qingyun Village?" Han Xiaoyue's heart couldn't help but move, "If I'm not mistaken, that masked girl in Tsing Yi claimed to be from Qingyun Village. ”

"What are the people of Qingyunzhai doing here? No, no, no! Qi Yuanzhen waved his hand and walked towards the backyard.

Han Xiaoyue didn't have time to think about it anymore, so she followed her father and left the Qi Mansion.

Han Tao passed the general's order, and three days later, the officers and soldiers of the whole battalion moved out of Jiangyuan City.

When the people of the city heard this, they were secretly glad. In their hearts, these reinforcements had no intention of protecting this place at all, but instead bullied themselves as officers and soldiers. This time it is more pleasing to move out of Jiangyuan City than to repel the Song army.

When the 30,000-strong army heard the general's order, they were generally displeased. After all, they came all the way here to fight for the people of Jiangyuan City, who had nothing to do with them, but they were not allowed to live in the city. In my heart, there is always a feeling of being shut out.

The soldiers who had been stationed in the local area before were mixed: if the reinforcements abandoned Jiangyuan City in a fit of anger, I am afraid that they would really be destroyed together with the city.

However, Han Xiaoyue's mind was not on this, and she was always thinking about the mysterious masked girl in Tsing Yi in Qingyun Village. Not for the jade pendant, but for a good look at her pretty face.

Two days before the military order was issued, the evacuation work was carried out in an orderly manner. Even so, the progress of the evacuation still gave Qi Yuanzhen a lot of headaches. In his view, a day late in evacuation, there is a great deal of conflict. He wished he could see reinforcements withdraw in a day.

On the third day, Qi Yuanzhen, who couldn't wait, assigned Dong Yuan to go on his behalf to help Han Tao do a good job of evacuation.

Dong Yuan, as a local general, showed dissatisfaction as early as when he welcomed Han Tao's father and son into the city. This time, Dong Yuan secretly thought to himself in his heart: "We must pick on their mistakes fiercely, so that Lord Qi can clearly recognize my role as Dong Yuan!" ”

Dong Yuan led dozens of local soldiers, riding high-headed horses, and came to the gate of the barracks early in the morning. The soldiers were nervously packing up their knives and spears and transporting them out of the city. The evacuation of the barracks for several days has made the barracks a little messy -- in peacetime, Han Tao will definitely strictly enforce military discipline and keep the barracks in order.

Dong Yuan raised his eyes, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he thought to himself: "Han Tao, Han Tao, this time I have caught the handle!" ”

Thinking about it, Dong Yuan held the horsewhip in his hand and shouted: "I am the general Dong Yuan, the person in charge here, where is I now?" ”

Dong Yuanming knew that this was Han Tao's barracks, and the person in charge was Han Tao, but he knowingly asked, which caused the dissatisfaction of the other soldiers in the barracks. The move that had originally allowed them to withdraw outside the city had already been complained about by the whole army. Seeing Dong Yuan's arrogant face, the soldiers gritted their teeth with hatred, and they couldn't wait to drag him off the horse directly, and whip him a few times to relieve the hatred in their hearts.

Dong Yuan looked around. At this moment, a man stepped out of a large tent. When I looked closely, it was Han Tao.

Han Tao hadn't closed his eyes for a day and a night, and he looked tired. When he looked up, he saw Dong Yuan riding on a horse, and he didn't have the slightest intention of getting off the horse and saluting, so he turned around and walked away.

Seeing this, Dong Yuan hurriedly shouted: "Old General Han! Don't be busy leaving! ”

Han Tao didn't look back, and replied: "General Ben is entangled in military affairs, so it is inconvenient to stay for a long time. If General Dong has nothing to do, please go back! ”

When Dong Yuan heard this, he was very annoyed in his heart, and continued to shout: "I am the general sent by Lord Qi to inspect the evacuation work, is this how he responded to me?" ”

Before Han Tao could reply, a voice came from among the soldiers: "Dong Yuan, my father is at the same level as Master Qi, how can you say that you are here to inspect the work?" This is clearly your villain, a fox and a fake tiger, arrogant! ”

Dong Yuan followed the voice and looked over, only to see that Han Xiaoyue had already taken off her armor and was pushing a dragon-headed chariot forward with the soldiers, covered with sand and dust.

Dong Yuan couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw Han Xiaoyue's appearance: "Haha! It turned out to be Han Tao's son-in-law! Why, this early in the morning, what kind of kung fu is this practice, the skill of pushing a cart? Hahaha! ”

"Humph!" Han Xiaoyue pushed away the chariot in her hand, walked to Dong Yuan's horse, pointed at Dong Yuan and said, "You junior, if you don't get off the horse and bow when you see your senior, forget it." My father is above you, why don't you worship it? Could it be that you are going to rebel in front of these three armies? ”

Dong Yuan hurriedly put away his smiling face, looked Han Xiaoyue up and down, and thought: "I didn't expect that this father and son were so difficult to mess with, and after a while, they charged me with rebellion!" I've got to think of a lie! ”

Thinking of this, Dong Yuan turned over and dismounted, walked to Han Tao's placket, knelt down on one knee and said, "Meet General Han." The last general was offended just now, please forgive me! As he spoke, Dong Yuan lowered his head and squinted at Han Xiaoyue, not daring to look at Han Tao.

Han Tao cleared his throat and said, "General Dong doesn't need to be polite, please get up quickly!" General Ben has been working hard for several days to evacuate, and it is inconvenient to accompany him for a long time. If you want to take a look around, let me accompany you! After speaking, he waved his hand and motioned for Han Xiaoyue to come over, and he flicked his robe sleeves and entered the big tent.

Han Xiaoyue was reluctant to talk to Dong Yuan. As early as when he entered the city, he was dissatisfied with Dong Yuan's non-discussion of military affairs. Today, it is so arrogant and domineering. Han Xiaoyue has always been patient with the anger in her heart, and because of the fact that she is a general of the same dynasty and serves the country, she does not care about him generally.

Seeing Han Tao walking into the big tent, Dong Yuan stood up straight, glanced at Han Xiaoyue, and said, "General Han, please lead the way!" ”

Han Xiaoyue coped with her father's errand and led Dong Yuan to look around.

The evacuation has been largely completed, and most of the soldiers and camps have been evacuated outside the city. The rest is just some knives, guns, bows and arrows, as well as the dragon head chariot unique to Shu.

The dragon head chariot is not original to Shu, and the pattern of the chariot can be traced back to Shu during the Three Kingdoms period. The chariot pattern was drawn by Zhuge Liang, but due to the limited materials at that time, and all of them were used to support the Northern Expedition, the chariot was not completely built. It has been passed down until now, and Meng Chang has invested heavily in building ten leading chariots.

The chariot was more than ten feet long and more than eight feet wide, and its body was made of pure wood and wrapped in iron. There are three large wheels on each side, and the diameter is nearly one person high. At the front of the car, two cylindrical pieces of wood protrude outward, carved into the image of a dragon's head. Ten eagle arrows can be quickly shot from the dragon's mouth. The chariot was sturdy enough to withstand ordinary bows and arrows, swords and spears. Fifty skilled swordsmen can be buried in the car, and in front of the formation, shoot the enemy from a long distance; Once in the middle of the battle, you can destroy the enemy formation from within. Meng Chang sent Han Tao and his son to reinforce Jiangyuan City this time, and specially brought 5 leading chariots to show solemnity.

Dong Yuan looked at Han Xiaoyue's back as he walked, and said, "General Han." Why is it that there are still so many troops in the city on the third day? ”

After hearing this, Han Xiaoyue stopped, and turned her head to stare at Dong Yuan.

"Yo! What are you staring at me for? Could it be that you and your father Han Tao deliberately delayed the date? ”

Han Xiaoyue turned around, still silent.

Seeing this, Dong Yuan lifted the horsewhip in his hand and said, "What, did I say something wrong?" ”

Han Xiaoyue clenched her fists hard, snorted, and said, "Dong Yuan, I didn't want to make an enmity with you. Helplessly, you are aggressive, it seems that I must teach you a lesson today to relieve the hatred in my heart! ”

As she spoke, Han Xiaoyue slowly approached Dong Yuan, and the fists in her hands became tighter and tighter.

Dong Yuan raised his horsewhip and said, "Okay! Then let me show you what you can do! Before the words fell, Dong Yuan's horsewhip swung towards Han Xiaoyue.

Han Xiaoyue stretched out her left hand to catch the horsewhip, and the other hand hit Dong Yuan's front door. Dong Yuan tried hard to pull out the whip, but he didn't expect Han Xiaoyue to take advantage of the situation and come to his placket. With a "bang", Dong Yuan really took this punch.

"Ahh Dong Yuan threw away the horsewhip, covered his mouth with his hands, and took a few steps back. When he opened his hand again, he saw that he had three teeth and a large pool of blood left in his hand.

Han Xiaoyue threw the horsewhip to the ground and hid her left hand behind her. His left hand was whipped open by the whip, and blood ran down his fingers.

"Oh no, the major general and General Dong are fighting!" The soldiers shouted and ran towards Han Tao's big tent.

Dong Yuan threw away the teeth in his hand, spat out a mouthful of blood fiercely, and shouted: "Damn, dare to beat Lao Tzu!" Lao Tzu killed you! As he spoke, he pulled out a short knife from his waist and rushed to Han Xiaoyue's placket.

Han Xiaoyue also drew a short knife and fought with him with a knife in one hand. After more than a dozen rounds of fighting, the winner was not decided, and Han Tao, who was rushed to hear the news, separated each other with one shot.

Han Tao first glared at Han Xiaoyue, then at Dong Yuan, and shouted, "Bastard! In the barracks, the two generals had infighting, what kind of system did it become? Do you want me to be dealt with according to military law? ”

Han Xiaoyue saw that her father lost her temper, and immediately put away the short knife and looked at Dong Yuan with contempt.

Dong Yuan ignored Han Tao, holding a short knife in his hand, and his two eyes did not leave Han Xiaoyue's body.

Seeing that Dong Yuan didn't react, Han Tao pumped the gun Dong Yuan's body. With a "snap", Dong Yuan suddenly took four or five steps back, and the chest armor immediately recessed in.

"You!" Dong Yuan pointed at Han Tao and wanted to scold loudly. Suddenly, he realized that he was on par with Han Xiaoyue's martial arts, but he was definitely not Han Tao's opponent, so he had to put down his fingers and the short knife in his hand and remained silent.

Han Tao saw that he slowly lowered the short knife in his hand, so he also threw away the spear in his hand.

"General Han!" Dong Yuan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Han Tao and said, "The soldiers of the three armies testify, you actually shield your relatives like this, aren't you afraid that Lord Qi will blame you and ask Your Majesty to punish you?" ”

"You!" Han Xiaoyue wanted to argue, but was stopped by Han Tao.

Han Tao walked to Dong Yuan's placket, and Dong Yuan couldn't help but be frightened by his momentum and took a step back.

Han Tao looked him up and down and said, "General Dong, Han is a general of the imperial court, and he was ordered to come to support Jiangyuan City. In terms of official rank, Han is older than you. You are not qualified to question me in Han's barracks. If you have any dissatisfaction with Han, you can report it to Lord Qi, and Lord Qi will come forward to reason with Han. If Lord Qi feels that Han is acting unfairly, whether to impeach Han or not, it is up to you to listen. ”

After speaking, he turned his head, glanced at Han Xiaoyue, and continued: "The two of you have made trouble in the army and corrupted military discipline, so you should be beheaded. Thinking of the great enemy, you are the first offender. Someone! As soon as the words fell, six soldiers around him walked up, "Pull Han and Dong Er Generals down and beat them with twenty sticks as a punishment!" With that, he brushed his sleeves and left.
