Chapter 142: Trouble is Coming!
King Huayang shouted.
Then he gave a sharp order: "Beat the drums!"
The roaring drums that shook the heavens and the earth suddenly sounded in the same rhythm from all directions.
Boom Boom! Boom Boom!
"We don't need a grand departure ceremony! What we need is a welcoming ceremony when we return triumphantly, the grander the better, please look forward to the day when we return triumphantly!"
The voice of the King of Huayang, even in the rumbling drums, was still clearly heard!
Overflow to everyone, whether it is officers and soldiers or ordinary people!
"Roar!"
Hundreds of thousands of troops, all at the same time with a neat roar.
"All the soldiers are here, turn around collectively! Farewell to their hometown!" Huayang Wang's voice made people feel that his throat was almost torn.
The movements of the three armies were uniform, and they turned around at the same time, looking at the towering walls of Chenxing City, their eyes were solemn, solemn, and loyal.
The weapon in your hand is gently raised and falls hard!
Rumble!
The whole land was also shocked by this action!
"Farewell to my father!"
Rumble!
"Say goodbye to your loved ones!"
Rumble!
"Farewell to Your Majesty!"
At the head of the city, in the most conspicuous position, the emperor in a bright yellow robe, His Majesty, was standing in the wind, with his hands behind him, looking at the hundreds of thousands of hundreds of thousands of battles outside the city!
Just like since ancient times, His Majesty the Emperor has been standing here.
Watch your own soldiers go out on the battlefield!
"Boom!"
The sword and gun were raised and fell heavily.
Immediately afterward, all the soldiers put their left hands into fists in front of their chests and saluted His Majesty.
His Majesty the Emperor also made a move this time, raising his hands lightly and making a posture of embracing the world!
Then, a few words were spoken.
Immediately, a gold-armored general beside him shouted loudly: "Your Majesty's message: In the name of heaven, this battle will be won! Defend the family and the country, only I am a heroic man! Emperor Chen is undefeated, and Emperor Chen's territory will be forever! The soldiers will go on the expedition, and I will stand at the head of the city to see each other off! When you are triumphant, I will definitely go out of the city for a hundred miles to welcome the hero's return!"
"陛xià!陛xià!陛xià!"
The three armies shouted at the same time, and the momentum shook the heavens and the earth.
His Majesty the Emperor waved his hand.
"Let's go!" King Huayang roared fiercely.
The next moment, the earth shook suddenly!
Because-
With a big flag, the first to rush out of the team, its horses galloped up, the banner showed its intentions, the vanguard army, officially started!
Boom Boom Boom ......
The horses galloped, the army trotted to follow, and streaks of smoke and dust rose into the sky.
None of the soldiers looked back.
In the procession, some soldiers burst into tears, but they didn't wipe them, and just followed the procession, step by step! Tears slid down their cheeks.
"Victory!"
All the soldiers and civilians suddenly roared at the same time as if they had a soul in their hearts!
The sound was chaotic and gossipy at first, but in the end it has become a unified sound!
"Triumph!"
"Victory!"
"Triumph!"
"Victory!"
The groups of soldiers, like a torrent of steel completely condensed in one place, went south without looking back.
King Huayang turned his head and glanced deeply at the imperial capital, and suddenly there was a long howl, and the healthy horse man under his crotch stood up, and the king of the hundred battles spear in the hand of King Huayang pointed to the sky!
"I'll go too!"
The horse's hooves fell, and then turned into a black whirlwind, and rushed away!
With the action of King Huayang, all the armies also moved at the same time, boom boom ...... The sound of marching shook the earth's sky!
At the head of the city, His Majesty the Emperor watched the army under the city march one after another, and every soldier galloped away across his horse without looking back, and couldn't help but show a pleased smile on his face.
However, the eye circles are already slightly red.
He said softly: "Strong! This is my country!"
......
When the sun rises at three poles.
In front of the city gate, where the five camps were originally located, had become empty at this moment.
On the ground, not even a single piece of paper remained.
Be neat and tidy.
The temporary thatched latrine that was originally built by the army was also dug out early at this time, and then completely covered and stepped on as flat as the ground.
However, in one morning, all 300,000 troops were on the road, and the efficiency of such operations was truly breathtaking and spectacular!
However, many of the onlookers did not disperse.
One by one, they looked in the direction of the departure of the army, stood for a long time, and watched for a long time. Although the army that has already hit the road is no longer visible at this moment, his eyes are still full of hope and desire.
The campaign to the southern Xinjiang army has not yet begun, and it is only on the road at the moment.
However, the hope of relatives, the heart-wrenching worry, the sleepless torture, have started now!
Perhaps it will not be until the army returns, or even when he sees his relatives again, that this hope, worry, and torture will stop!
Ye Xiao stood on horseback, looking at the empty ground, but there was a blood surging in his heart.
After all, I still went on the expedition.
Hope...... Return triumphantly soon!
A little farther away, a carriage slowly galloped in, and Su Yeyue's pretty little face was revealed, her eyes were red, and her tears were like tears.
"Laugh. Su Yeyue flattened her mouth.
Seeing Ye Xiao, the tears that had been stopped would actually flow out again, just like a child who had been greatly wronged, he was so stubborn that he pursed his mouth and refused to cry, but suddenly saw his relatives, and the tears that he had forcibly held back could no longer be held back.
"It's fine. It's okay," Ye Xiao said softly: "It will definitely be fine! The prince will definitely return triumphantly from this trip!"
"Hmm!" Su Yeyue nodded heavily.
At this moment, Su Yeyue no longer saw the Qingyang of the past, only unspeakable weakness. He said softly: "The mother concubine did not come. My father didn't allow her to come, but in fact, even I came here secretly, and I didn't dare to let my father see it......"
Ye Xiao only sighed loudly.
If the princess comes, there will be a love for children, presumably this iron-blooded man is also afraid that he will see his wife, even if he is not short of breath, there will always be a little gaffe, right?
It's not that I'm afraid of affecting the morale of the military, but I'm worried about ...... I really don't want to face the tears of my wife's parting.
As time passed, the crowd slowly dispersed in all directions inside and outside the city.
The heaviness of that parting is so clearly expressed on the soles of everyone's feet.
There are some women, after turning around and taking a few steps, but they can't help but look back......
It seems that the beloved who has already gone on the expedition will be able to return to Pegasus and appear in front of him in the next moment...... But, looking at it, just a few lines of tears fell silently......
Ye Xiao and Su Yeyue stood at the city gate for a long time, unwilling to leave.
For a long time, His Majesty the Emperor, who had also been in the city and had never left, sighed softly and muttered: "Dingguo, I wish you a smooth journey." Don't forget what I told you. ”
Finally turned around and went back to the palace.
After about half an hour, the tide of send-off crowds finally dispersed in all directions.
Heaven and earth seem to have regained tranquility again, but the air is full of sorrow.
Zuo Wuji and Lan Langlang have not left yet, they are standing on the dirt slope with their families, and they see Ye Xiao and Su Yeyue from afar, neither of them immediately came over - these two people are fiancés, sister-in-law/younger siblings have just seen their father go on the expedition, they must be uncomfortable, Ye Shao must be there to comfort, let's not join in the fun, it is not too late for them to talk more.
Su Yeyue's delicate body stood on Ye Xiao's horseback, and she looked south with all her might.
But he ignored that at this time, his father and even the entire army were long gone.
"Father, you have always been invincible, and this time will be no exception, and you will definitely be able to return triumphantly!"
Su Yeyue muttered in her mouth, a pair of tender white hands, intentionally or unintentionally clenched her fists tightly, as if she was cheering for her father Yaozhu, and seemed to be comforting and convincing herself.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Su Yeyue was still reluctant to leave, and Ye Xiao stepped forward, waiting for comfort. And Zuo Wuji and Lan Langlang also came over......
At this moment, suddenly a chaotic sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded.
At the city gate, a group of horses rushed out very proudly, but it was a group of young men in brocade clothes, all with oily heads and powdery faces, riding on horses, looking forward to self-pride, pretentious, talking and laughing loudly, whipping loudly, and acting one by one, indescribably frivolous and arrogant.
Soon after the army had just set out, such a group of people rushed out of this place.
Even the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate showed extremely angry expressions on their faces.
With so many good men rushing to the front, it's just that you guys don't come to see them off, and probably no one will see them off. But how can you rush out of the city gates with such a gesture after they are gone, what is this?
For the army that has just traveled, it is simply a blasphemy, a simple insult!
Zuo Wuji's eyes flashed, and he took the lead in whispering: "Ye Xiao, trouble is coming." ”
Ye Xiao raised his head: "Oh, trouble?"
Since being reborn, I have been in trouble, almost never stopped in trouble, today was the special day when I didn't want to cause trouble, and I didn't want to be troubled, but now the trouble is still taking the initiative to come to the door, it's really troublesome!
It's just, what is the source of this "trouble"?!
Ye Xiao's heart has always been a laughing monarch, and he seems to be really unfamiliar with Ye Xiao's past non-friends and acquaintances, but fortunately, Zuo Wuji is very understanding and gives an explanation-
"Among that group, Li Chengze, the grandson of the right minister, is the leader, and after Li Chengze is the son of Jiang Yuming, the secretary of the household department, and the son of Tao Juze, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and there is ...... behind" Zuo Wuji read out one by one.
Lan Langlang smiled: "These people are our old enemies." ”
Ye Xiao couldn't help frowning when she heard this.
Sure enough, it's trouble, and it's the kind of trouble that is very troublesome!
While talking, these guys were angry with their horses, raising their whips, and swaying towards themselves and the others.
