Chapter 253 - Continues
The mansion of the prince of Zhengbei, that is, the home of Huyan Qiongmei.
At this time, it was as bright as day, and even outside the mansion, you could hear the sound of singing and dancing coming from inside the mansion.
In the courtyard used to pick up guests, in addition to the Huyan family and Si Kou Haomiao, there were only some maids left.
Huyan Qiongmei stuck to Huyan Weimao's side, her face flushed, and her mouth pursed from time to time.
Huyan Weimao looked down at his beloved daughter, his eyes were full of doting.
Raising his head, he raised his glass to Si Kou Haomiao: "If you are polite, uncle will not say it, just say it where you can use me in the future." ”
Si Kou Haomiao picked up the wine glass in front of him, collided with Huyan Weimao in the air, and then drank it all together.
Putting down the wine glass, Si Kou Haomiao said unhurriedly: "Uncle is polite, Qiongmei is also my fiancée, I should do this." ”
"Alas, Qiongmei, this child, has been spoiled by me since he was a child, and he does things recklessly. Although I have said this many times, and it is very undeserved, I still hope that if Qiongmei does something that makes it unbearable for you in the future, you can send her back. ”
"Hahaha-"
Si Kou Haomiao snorted and didn't continue.
Huyan Weimao shook his head a little sadly and nodded to the maid on the side.
The two maids came over and carefully took Huyan Qiongmei away, and then helped her away.
waved his hand to all the remaining maids, and soon only Huyan and his son and Si Kou Haomiao were left in the courtyard.
"I heard that Haomiao promised Ying Xuemei to send troops to Shangguan and Zhang Wang?"
"Well, Ying Xuemei promised me that as many cities as I conquered, it would be ours. I plan to leave for the west tomorrow, hoping that my uncle will lend me some soldiers. ”
"What to borrow or not, they are Sakura and soldiers, they are and will be. It's just that attacking Zhang Wang and Shangguan will do us more harm than good!"
"Oh?
Si Kou Haomiao picked up his wine glass and drank it slowly.
"There are five major forces on Tianxiong's face, but no matter how you say it, the four major forces are all Guangwu people. For decades, even if they have been in civil strife, if we attack one of them, they will stop their internal strife and turn against us, either openly or covertly. ”
"This time, because of the soldiers of Guangwulai, the situation in Tianxiong, which has been silent for decades, has finally changed completely. Now that Zhang Wang and Shangguan are jointly attacking Tiance and Nanhe, the situation is indeed one-sided, but that is because the backbone of both sides is not in their own forces. ”
"As soon as they return, the soldiers and food they spend will increase again. Let them fall on each other, and when there is only one breath left in all directions, we will send troops from land and water with the power of thunder, and within a year, Tianxiong will fall into our hands. The benefits given by Ying Xuemei were originally ours, why should we listen to her?!"
Si Kou Hao couldn't stop nodding, but he didn't speak.
Huyan Weimao looked at each other with his two sons and spoke again: "When the time comes, the four of us will lead a large army all the way, and we will definitely be able to take them!"
Si Kou Haomiao stopped nodding and took out a piece of golden cloth from his arms, and Huyan Weimao and the other three were very unhappy.
Sure enough, Si Kou Haomiao slowly got up and pulled it away: "The prince of Zhengbei Hu Yan Weimao took the order. ”
Huyan Weimao and his two children got up and knelt down together.
"I have seen that the situation of Tianxiong has been clear and clear, and you have lost the enterprising spirit of peace and happiness for a long time, and the special secretary Kou Haomiao is in charge of Tianxiong Sakura and all matters until he takes Tianxiong. ”
For high-ranking local ministers, the most uncomfortable thing for them may be what happened to Ruhuyan Weimao at this time.
It's so bad that the whole person is going crazy, but I still have to be grateful.
"Thank you, Lord Ron. ”
Si Kou Haomiao put the holy decree in Huyan Weimao's hand, then pulled him up and looked him directly into the eyes: "Uncle, send troops tomorrow, rush to the western mountains within three days, and attack Zhang Wang and Shangguan within five days." ”
Huyan Weimao's mouth was open, but there was no sound.
Huyan Tiangong and Huyan Dizao's breath fluctuated, and the two pairs of eyes full of anger stared at Si Kou Haomiao.
"Yes!"
Huyan Tiangong and Huyan Dizao greatly reduced their momentum, and the two of them invariably looked at Huyan Weimao and Sikou Haomiao: "Let's retreat first." ”
Si Kou Haomiao nodded, and pulled Huyan Weimao back to his seat.
"Uncle, don't worry, the two major forces are now deep in strength in Tiance and Nanhe, and if we suddenly attack, they will definitely not be able to react. ”
"Well, that's it, uncle is a little tired, so I'll go back and rest first. ”
"I'll send my uncle. ”
Si Kou Haomiao not only said that his body had risen.
Huyan Weimao didn't speak again, and when he left Si Kou Haomiao's courtyard, he was originally just gray-haired, and his momentum was still very strong, and he was like entering old age in an instant.
The straight waist bent a lot, and walked slowly towards his small courtyard.
Si Kou Haomiao watched Huyan Weimao's figure disappear, turned around and walked towards the courtyard where he lived temporarily, with a touch of playfulness on his face.
......
Huyan Weimao pushed open the courtyard door, and the two sons sat quietly in the courtyard.
He seemed to have expected it, without the slightest surprise or other emotion.
They sat next to the two of them, and the three of them sat quietly.
At a certain moment, Kitamiya Jizao suddenly slammed his fist on the bamboo table, and the table exploded in response.
I don't know if it's a coincidence, none of the bamboos that were blown out touched Huyan Tiangong and Huyan Weimao, who were close at hand.
Huyan Tiangong and Huyan Weimao were still sitting quietly, their eyes motionless.
"Father—why did you promise him? We've been preparing for so many years, can't we—"
Huyan Weimao's eyes moved, as if someone had choked the death hole, and he said weakly: "Alas—your mother—"
Huyandi's momentum suddenly decreased, and Huyan Tiangong said softly: "Mother herself said that if it is necessary, you don't have to care about her life. ”
Hu Yan turned his head sharply to look at his eldest brother, his gaze was extremely unfamiliar.
Hu Yan Weimao didn't have too much expression, just shook his head.
"Let them be, I just hope that my Sakura and warriors will be less damaged. ”
"Father, why didn't Si Kou Haomiao listen to our advice? If we follow our plan, we only need 200,000 soldiers to pacify the four major forces of Tianxiong. Now that the troops are dispatched, it is fine if they just knock on Shangguan and Zhang Wang, but if they want to occupy two places, or even four places, it is impossible without 500,000 soldiers. Moreover, it is necessary to absorb soldiers from the four regions to guard the occupied land at the time of conquest. In this way, the price paid is several times or even ten times that of our plan. ”
"Hehe, how could he not know this? It should be said that Sakura and all the high-ranking officials and families know about it, but they don't want us to do that. ”
Hu Yandi made indignation and died down, and he had little contact with Sakura in the past few years, and he almost forgot the court that made him disgusted and disgusted.
"You all go back and have a good rest, Tiangong, you hurry up and recuperate, maybe you will be needed in a while. ”
"Yes. ”
......
God is in a good mood these days, and every day is a big sun.
It's a pity that people need to think about too many things, and they don't have time to enjoy the warm sun that is born in autumn.
On a certain mountain, green figures slowly walked forward.
The green people, who were really strange, looked closer, and it turned out that they were covered with the bark of unknown trees.
Wei Jianfeng stood on a large rock, and through the branches, he could see that there was a town in front of the valley.
took out the map that was no longer completely indistinguishable from the original color, and quietly took a few breaths: "Xining Town, a hundred miles away from Weigu City, fifty miles away from Shangqicheng and sixty miles away from Beijindu. ”
It took so long to walk so little, because the road they took was not taken by people at all.
Otherwise, there would not be only more than 7,000 people left.
Non-combat attrition is up to 30 percent, which is very serious no matter where it is.
"General, where are we going?"
A soldier who followed Wei Jianfeng close to him finally said what everyone wanted to know.
"Nanping City. ”
"Huh?!"
This time, not only the previous guard, but also the other guards spoke.
"Even if we can reach the outside of Nanping City, Nanping City is the capital of Nanlin, and now it is a supply city for the allied forces of the three places. With more than 7,000 of us, let alone capturing Nanping, we can't even get close to it, right?"
"Nanping City is more than two hundred miles away from here, according to our current speed, it will take about ten days, I don't know how much will happen to Tiance at that time, in case - the subordinates say that in case Tiance is captured, what is the use of us even if we capture Nanping City?"
"If you want me to say, let's take a detour to the Central Avenue, kill Beijindu directly, take Beijindu back into our hands again, and seize the initiative in the central part. ”
"You underestimate ourselves too much, and you underestimate Lord Xia and them too much. With them, Tiance will definitely not fall within a month. And within this month, the general will definitely return to Tiance. As long as the general returns, the coalition forces in the woodland will only have to go to Nanping City to feed the fish, and we are now going to block their only way back!"
Regarding the fact that Yang Fengqing was not in Tiance, Wei Jianfeng told them before the army crossed the Gongtian River.
Only by cutting off all their thoughts will they really fight hard.
"How could the general know that the general would definitely come back within a month?"
"What did the general do?"
"I always feel that the general has never received a message from Tiance, and he doesn't know what happened to Tiance at all. How did the general know that within this month, the messenger would be able to find the general?"
Wei Jianfeng looked in the direction of Guangwu from afar, and his eyes revealed bitter hatred.
"Because I don't want to die more than any of you!"
This answer had nothing to do with the question they were asking, but the soldiers were convinced.
People who don't want to die will never risk their lives to take their lives.
......
Heavenly policy, go to the city.
There were still burning flames at the south gate, and corpses remained on the banks of the moat.
On the city tower, Gu Xuzhang was dressed in armor and looked at the empty camp in the distance with an expressionless face.
His mouth suddenly opened, and a mouthful of thick phlegm flew out several feet away.
"Bah, what shit! If it weren't for the big picture, I would only need 50,000 people to sweep you away!"
"Keep watching, and if they dare to attack the city, they will come and make an announcement. ”
"Yes. ”
At the same time, an endless stream of soldiers rushed out of the west gate of Shangcho City.
Their uniforms were bright and refreshed, and they could see that the soldiers at the front kept looking at the two figures in the front, and those who couldn't see them kept muttering something.
"Uncle, General Luo is here to save you, wait for us!"
"Brother, are you still there, I'm here to save you!"
"Komatsu, hold on for one more day, my brother is coming with General Luo and the second general. This is the general's plan, we are laying out at this time, and when the general shows up, that is, when we defeat the Shangguan army in one fell swoop, we must hold on!"
Luo Daguang and Ergou in front knew what the situation was at this time, they took advantage of the opportunity to repel the Shangguan army outside the city, and led half of the soldiers of Shangqicheng to rush to the west, and told their subordinates that this was the general's plan, in fact, it was just to give more confidence to the soldiers in other cities.
"General, come back quickly!"
