Worried that Brother Niu would talk about Yunxin, I could only break Luo Rou away: "Senior brother, I haven't seen Brother Niu for a long time, you help me go to the tavern outside the camp to help me clean up a table of wine and tea, and I will have a few drinks with Brother Niu in a while!" ”

Luo Rou knew that we had something to talk about, so she nodded and left.

"You boy! I didn't say a word and ran away, but I was not worried, if it wasn't for Miss Tian suing me, maybe I would have to go around looking for you! ”

I hurriedly confessed again and said, "Is Yunxin okay?" ”

"After you left, Miss Tian often chatted with me!" Brother Niu glanced at me and said, "Talk about you!" I always feel that Miss Tian is not very happy these days, and I rarely see her laughing, except when I talk about you! I said that you kid just left, what are you going to do with Miss Tian? ”

Thinking of Tian Yunxin, my heart warms, and there is a faint pain, these days I always think of her when I have nothing to do, and I often hope to be able to hold her weak body in my arms and cherish her: "I will go back, I will definitely marry her, but not now, when I avenge my master, I will definitely go back to find her!" ”

Brother Niu smiled: "Count your kid and still have a conscience!" Alas, I ran out to be a soldier, no one chatted with Miss Tian, I don't know ...... her" Brother Niu sighed and didn't say more.

My heart hurt again, her haggard figure appeared in my mind, and I had the urge to go back to visit and protect her immediately, but I couldn't, the war here is not over, Master's deep revenge has not been avenged, I can't go back to see her yet. I said something to her in my heart, "I'm sorry! He said to her secretly: "Wait for me, I will definitely come back to marry you!" ”

"Brother Niu, how did you become a soldier? You are a soldier, Uncle Niu, Aunt Niu, Xiao Huihui, what should they do? Who takes care of them? ”

Niu Ge said: "After the invasion of the Annan people, Prince Cheng recruited a large number of recruits in the feudal country, saying that he would be ready to go to the front line to fight the Annan people at any time. And I'm just about to get on the conscription order, and I'm going to the barracks! I trained for two months, and more than a month ago, the emperor ordered all feudal states to send troops to support the front line, and I arrived here, but I didn't expect to meet you! ”

Prince Cheng is the current emperor's uncle, when he is the first assistant of the dynasty, I heard that the emperor is obedient to him. Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces are his fiefdoms, because he wants to assist the government, and the affairs of the feudal country have always been taken care of by his son. These two provinces are among the richest places in the country, and some people say that it is not difficult to be the emperor because of the wealth and popularity of Prince Yicheng.

"Aren't you the only man in your family? What's ......?"

"When it comes to fighting, who cares about these things in office! Who made me a famous warrior from all over the world! Brother Niu didn't feel uncomfortable because he was conscripted, but looked a little complacent.

"What will happen to the family when you leave like this?"

"Originally, Miss Tian was planning to pay some money to find someone to replace me. But I refused, and a manly man should play on the battlefield. I can only prove my worth on the battlefield, I don't plan to let my daughter, maybe I have a son in the future, I don't want them to have to stay in the field for the rest of their lives. I must earn an immortal reputation for my wife and son! ”

Yes, men are like that.

I knew that I couldn't persuade Brother Niu, so I had to smile and say, "How is Xiao Huihui?" Will it call people? ”

Speaking of his daughter, Brother Niu's old face immediately blossomed: "Hehe, this little girl's film is becoming more and more clever and more and more likable!" I went home once before the pull-out, and she spoke for the first time when I left. Do you know? When Xiao Huihui called me dad, I was a big man who actually cried! Perhaps, the only thing that will make me regret being a soldier is that I can't accompany her! ”

Brother Niu's words made me feel a lot of emotion, first I heard that his mother-in-law was a little funny selling melons; Then when I heard Brother Niu crying, I was very moved; In the end, when Brother Niu said that he would regret it, his heart was a little heavy, Brother Niu may be worried that he won't be able to go back, and he can't watch Xiao Huihui grow up!

"Don't worry! Huihui will understand, when the battle is over, you can accompany her more! I patted Brother Niu on the shoulder and comforted. No matter what, I won't let Brother Niu have an accident, and I can't let him have anything for Xiao Huihui's sake.

Brother Niu smiled faintly and did not speak.

After chatting about some trivial matters again, calculating the time, Luo Rou should have arranged the wine and food, and pulled Brother Niu away from the camp.

On the way, he met He Ruitian and called him too, and the four of them had a hearty drink in the tavern.

The next day, I found Jiang Song, hoping to transfer Brother Niu to my account. Jiang Song refused, only said that Brother Niu was a soldier of King Cheng, and he was not good at self-specialization, so I asked me to find Chen Yanming, the commander of King Cheng's reinforcement battalion.

Chen Yanming is not very easy to talk to, saying that Brother Niu is the number one warrior in his camp and is not a general. It wasn't until I took out 5,000 taels of silver tickets that he "reluctantly" agreed.

Although I lost five thousand taels of silver, it was easy to come by, and I did not feel bitter in my heart. Now that Brother Niu is under my account, I can better protect him.

Brother Niu ate the pot of snake soup and his strength increased greatly. He is indeed the number one warrior in Chen Yanming's army, and he is also very valued, just because he has no military exploits, he is only appointed as a small flag commander, otherwise, five thousand taels may not be able to let Chen Yanming relax! After arriving under my account, I was immediately promoted to the chief flag commander of Brother Niu and included in my personal guard. Brother Niu had a bloody battle in the city, the whole army was obvious to all, and he had a good reputation for his bravery and courage.

Half a month later, Kang Yan organized another attack, this time he spent a lot of money to sell the Annam people as an internal response, and the battle was very smooth at the beginning, with more than 5,000 people rushing into the city. It's just that Ruan Zhaoqi is not incompetent, and soon he mobilized troops to surround our army that broke into the city. As agreed, this unit was to light fires everywhere in the city as soon as it broke into the city, and if there was fire all over the city, the enemy would panic and be in disarray, and our army would be able to break through the enemy's defensive line in one go. But they lit only a few fires and were surrounded and the fire was quickly extinguished. Kang Yan commanded the army to attack fiercely, and he hoped to break through the defense line and rescue the lone army in the city at the worst. But the Annamites did not let him go, so they wrapped lime in oiled paper and threw it down the city. When he fell on the ground, the oil paper was torn, and the lime produced a huge thick smoke stinging man, and he couldn't open his eyes. The Annan people even prepared buckets of water in the city, and after the stone dust attack was effective, they immediately poured water into the water, and the lime produced high temperature water vapor when it touched the water, which injured our army.

Our sergeants were covered with lime, and when they were drenched in water, there were cries and wails, and many people were blinded. A soldier who is not blind does not dare to open his eyes at all, which is no different from a blind man.

Kang Yan knew that he could no longer please him, so he had to order the troops to retreat. As for the soldiers who broke into the city, they could only beg the Buddha for protection.

Ruan Zhaoqi saw that our army was retreating, and immediately charged with 10,000 cavalry, giving our army great casualties, but fortunately, Kang Yan was not afraid of danger, and ordered the Shenji battalion, bow and crossbow, and bird guns to resist, and the number of enemy cavalry was limited.

However, more than 5,000 soldiers of our army who attacked the city wall were then slaughtered by the Annamite people, and none of them survived.

In this battle, more than 17,000 soldiers were killed or missing, and 5,000 were blind, and the unprecedented defeat spread among our army.

After two defeats, although our army inflicted some damage on the enemy, it itself lost 30,000 missing and 7,000 seriously wounded, not including the 5,000 blind soldiers.

Kang Yan truthfully reported two defeats to the imperial court, and put the blame on himself, asking for punishment from the imperial court.

The court issued a reprimand, and at the same time brought in new reinforcements.

Kang Yan did not dare to fight again, and there was a long silence on the front line.

Naturally, it is impossible for the army to be idle for a long time, Kang Yan is just looking for an opportunity to kill with one blow.

The autumn wind carried away the last shred of heat in the south. On this day, the military quartermaster brought autumn clothes, winter pants, arrows, gunpowder and other materials, along with Chen Si'an, the former little prince of Annan.

At the beginning of the Li family's chaos, Chen Si'an escaped from Annam under the protection of Prime Minister An Boya, and went to the capital of our country to ask the emperor to send troops to rebel and restore the country. This Chen Si'an is about ten years old, because he was born in the royal family, he has been taught all kinds of etiquette strictly by court teachers since he was a child, although he is still young, he also has a domineering style. After the Li clan seized power, they wantonly killed the Chen family, the dignified Annam royal family, more than hundreds of people were all killed, and only Chen Si'an, who fled abroad, was left, and now he has undoubtedly become the only and last hope of the old ministers of Annam, and he is already the only heir to the orthodox throne of Annam! He is now a symbol, and as long as he is alive, there is hope for those Annan people who miss the Chen Dynasty. And this hope, this burden of recovering the country, had to be pressed on his immature shoulders.

Chen Si'an is very smart, but after all, he is only ten years old, no matter how smart a yellow-mouthed child is, he is just a little smart, in the face of military affairs, in the face of political affairs, military affairs, and all kinds of things that even a white-bearded old man will have a headache, his intelligence is far from enough. Fortunately, he also had a right-hand man, his father's prime minister during his reign, Amboya. This An Boya studied in our country when he was a teenager, both in our country and in Annam, he also had to test the township when he was studying in our country, it is not too much to describe him with a rich five cars, Jinglun full of belly, and it is even more rare that he is loyal to Chen Zhehan, when the Li clan was in turmoil, he asked Chen Zhehan to lead troops to meet the enemy and cover the withdrawal of the Chen family. Chen Zhehan knew that he should have no way to live, so he refused his kindness, and only begged him to take his son away, hoping that one day he could help him restore the country and take revenge. An Boya really fulfilled his mission, went through life and death, and finally sent Chen Si'an to my country safely.

Kang Yan has been thinking hard about a good way to break the enemy, but because there is no one who is familiar with Annan's situation to help him, he has never thought of a good method. The arrival of An Boya, who was now well versed in the situation in Annan, made Kang Yan a little overjoyed, and on the night of his arrival, Kang Yan set up a banquet to entertain him, and asked all the officials above the commander of the guard to accompany him.
