The dragon is from the clouds, the tiger is from the wind, and it will rain when the clouds go out to fight.

As soon as the army passed the Guangwu Mountains, the first rain of the year fell in the northwest, perhaps because it had been accumulated for too long, and the heavy rain seemed to tear the Tianhe River at once, and the rain smashed into the ground in sheets.

Yun Zheng had to find a highland to garrison the army, and the rain became like this, no one could walk, and time and space seemed to be firmly fixed by the heavy rain at this moment.

The parched land received a large amount of rain in an instant, and then it slowly saturated, and then the flash flood broke out.

Yun Zheng looked at the torrent roaring from the front of the barracks with a dark face, and looked at the rain curtain that was pulled from the sky to the earth, God clearly returned the rain of the year to the world once a year, thinking of those innocent and tragic deaths, Yun Zheng's mood was depressed.

If the rain was lighter, Yun Zheng would still be able to take the opportunity to withdraw the army to Qinwangchuan, but in such weather, no one could move, and the black forest on the Guangwu Mountains was burned by the fire, and the loose land was directly exposed to the heavy rain, God knows what kind of danger would happen. In desperation, I had to go back to the military tent and wait for the heavy rain to pass.

Heavy rain was the biggest enemy of the Song army, and the best tents were used to place gunpowder, even Yun Zheng's tent was constantly dripping water, and there was no dry place to find in the huge tent.

There is not much to pay attention to when the march is outside, it doesn't matter if people are wet, it is great to have a sickness, but if the gunpowder is wet, it will lose its effect, and the bowstring made of ox tendon will become loose after encountering water vapor, and in the Great Song Dynasty, if you want to fight in the heavy rain, unless the two armies have reached the point of life and death, they will not abandon the long-range attack and start hand-to-hand combat.

The sky was gray, and the clouds hung overhead like the lid of a pot. There's no way to tell how long this rain will last.

It was in such a heavy rain that Longtieqiao came to the Tiger Leaping Gorge, the residence of the Moershuiba clan, and today's Tiger Leaping Gorge finally showed its most primitive side, with the turbulent water roaring down the narrow valley. When passing the famous Tiger Leaping Rock, the water rubbed against the boulder and hissed and screamed, which made people truly understand what a place of poor mountains and bad water is.

Blind Medicine and Long Tieqiao sat around a campfire, pouring liquor into their mouths with clay bowls without saying a word. This was specially left by Yun Zheng to Long Tieqiao, and even Yun Zheng didn't have much of such a spirit.

"You are already in your forties this year, there is not much time for you to become the master of Qingtang, Dong Yu is too young, you basically don't have a chance, he won't give you a chance, get an official position in the Great Song Dynasty and take the whole family to spend a few years in peace, the food in the clan is always not enough." When the year is good, you have to pay taxes to Qingtang City, but when the year is bad, no one pays attention to you, why bother! ”

The blind medicine snorted, took another big sip of the wine bowl, and threw the wine bowl on the wooden table with a bang.

Long Tieqiao poured another blind medicine full of wine and continued: "We are relatives, I won't hide some things from you, I will be the county commander of Gucheng at this time next year, if there is no accident, I can do this position for a lifetime, you give me the cattle and sheep." I will help you in your business, and with your superior money and salary, the clan will soon become rich. You and I join forces, as long as we lie dormant for a few decades, future generations may not be able to produce characters like Li Jiqian. ”

Blind Medicine frowned and said, "Isn't it feasible now?" ”

"Don't even think about it, Di Qing is alive, plus Yun Zheng is here, these two people will not allow another trouble in the Great Song Dynasty, the most annoying thing is that the Great Song Dynasty is now full of famous generals, and it is right to avoid the edge."

Long Tieqiao was a little frustrated when he talked about these things.

"Heroes are born at the right time, and the reason why Li Jiqian was able to rise back then. Thanks to the complete failure of the Northern Expedition of the Great Song Dynasty, the Tanyuan Alliance later gave Li Jiqian the opportunity to rise completely. The saying that the times create heroes has made many heroes blood and tears. ”

Blind Medicine shook his head and said, "I'm different from you, you always want to make a contribution." I just want to live for a long time in the Tiger Leaping Gorge, I always thought that such a request was not difficult, but now it seems that it is very difficult to live, I didn't hide it, Yun Zheng is here again, Qingtang people have long lost their glory, others fight in our land We can only hide far away, and only after the war is over can we clean up the mess. ”

Long Tieqiao said: "It is difficult to be small between the two majors, this is inevitable, Yun Zheng did not come with good intentions this time, I always feel that it is not so simple for him to find Dong Yu to flank and not hide the false Pang, but I can't think of what other intentions he has." ”

Blind medicine smiled: "What other intentions can there be, it's just to eliminate the unhidden Pang to take revenge, and then to find an opportunity to occupy a little Qingtang land, it's not difficult to imagine." ”

Long Tieqiao wanted to say more, but he shook his head and gave up, and said to the blind medicine again: "Uncle, this time the opportunity is very good, you still take the Mo and Shuiba clan to join the Song people, this time is different from the past, after the battle of Ranshipo, Yun Zheng has proved that the Song army can also defeat the ironclad army in the field, this is a very remarkable achievement, and the history books are likely to be rewritten."

In this world, the strong have a qiē, and the weak have nothing, the Great Song Dynasty has a vast territory and strong strength, and now there is such a change under the accumulation of thick and thin, which means that the pattern of this world is about to change.

I was attached to Fu Bi before, and it turned out that Fu Bi was too arbitrary, and it was difficult for me to make a difference, but now Yun Zheng appeared, and we had one more choice, I found that this person made a promise and advocated equal interests, and was a rare person who could pay in the Great Song Dynasty, and if I sincerely assisted him, I would definitely be rewarded. ”

Blind Medicine nodded sadly, the Wipe and Shuiba Clan was almost in a desperate situation by now, if it weren't for the secret assistance of Long Tieqiao, it would have been impossible to support it a long time ago.

In recent years, Long Tieqiao, as the largest smuggler of salt in Qinzhou, and the Shui Ba tribe as the largest smuggler of salt on the grassland, have combined the interests of the two very closely, and it is impossible to get rid of them lightly.

Over the years, the blind medicine has been dormant, silently accumulating his strength, looking forward to the death of the old leader Jiao Guluo, the death of the old leader, the death of the Ali bone he supported in Zongge City, and the Qingyi Ghost Chapter staring at himself like a wild dog, no matter what he does, he can't escape his surveillance.

Long Tieqiao was very clear about these things, and pointed to the heavy rain outside the cave with a smile and said, "This rain has isolated the heavens and the earth, I don't believe that Qingyi Jiegui Zhang can continue to monitor you in such weather."

As Yun Zheng's envoy, I have full powers, and it is the same for you to sign a contract with me. ”

After speaking, Long Tieqiao took out the seal letter from his arms, put it in his hand with a smile, and put it in front of the blind medicine.

The blind medicine took it and played with it for a while and laughed, for the blind medicine, the rise and fall of Qingtang has no direct relationship with him, he was subjugated by force by Jiao Guluo at the beginning, it is impossible not to give in under the big blade of others, the survival of the Shuiba clan is the most important, since Yun Zheng gave Long Tieqiao the power, there are too many articles to do.

As the first tribe to surrender, the reward he received would undoubtedly be the most generous.

The conspiracy grows like a mushroom in the pouring rain......

The army that did not hide Pang was still struggling to move forward, and he needed to use all the time to quickly march towards Western Xia, and the sooner he arrived in Western Xia, he could reorganize this army that had obviously lost its fighting spirit one day earlier.

This time, he didn't hide in the building car, and the muddy ground couldn't carry such a heavy carriage, he rode on the horse without saying a word in iron armor and cloak, like a very ordinary Western Xia soldier.

The heavy rain poured down his neck into the collar, and the little heat that was there earlier was quickly carried away by the cold rain, and the affected area of the injury in the early years was as sore as a pinprick, so he could only wrap the cloak tighter to minimize the windward side of his body.

There were not many people who could ride in the carriage, Li Qing was one of them, the woman used a sharp knife to help him cut off the rotten places, and then washed them with salt water, Li Qing was used to enduring such pain for a long time, so he lay on the car board and said nothing.

The woman then used a cleaner linen cloth to suck the blood from his body, and the women were already sweating profusely.

"It doesn't matter, I resisted, the Song people failed to kill me, this little injury can't kill me, wait for my injury to heal, we return to Daxia, I will teach you to ride a horse, my hometown is very beautiful in spring, when the locust flowers bloom, the mountains are snow-white, at that time the world is full of fragrant locust flowers, and people will get drunk when they walk under the tree.

My old mother also raised some bees, every year when the acacia flowers bloom is a good time for bees to collect honey, at that time my family lived in the general's mansion, the family did not have much spare money, my mother wanted to use bee candy to exchange for lambs.

When I was younger, I would always steal some bee candy, and even when my mother scolded me, I never repented, and it was worth taking a beating in order to get a bite of delicious bee candy......"

The woman habitually snuggled at Li Qing's feet, holding his legs with her two arms and smiling silently.

Li Qing's voice became lower and lower, and slowly stopped, and a slight snoring came out, and the ordeal he endured just now still consumed a lot of his body.

The torrent broke the road, the army had to stop, the cowhide tent was erected, the thin cowhide that had absorbed the water became thick and heavy, it was better to have such a thing than not there, countless soldiers hid under the cowhide, some tired people simply fell into the muddy water to rest, only those soldiers who felt more sensitive looked at the big quagmire outside, took out the whetstone and carefully sharpened their blades, this thing is the guarantee to ensure their homecoming.
