Chapter 40 Zhang Lu welcomes him
"Tell the soldiers behind you to hurry up and climb over this mountain... It's the Micang Ancient Road, and we can be regarded as returning to the realm of Hanzhong. ”
In the past, the army came out of the ancient road of rice cang, but there were only 5,000 of them, and now... Dongzhou Army, Zhang Yong's headquarters... Coupled with the two or three thousand elite soldiers selected by Zhang Wei from countless soldiers, the army has exceeded 10,000 at this moment, between these rolling mountains... It also looks more and more spectacular.
"Sir, drink more water! I really can't... The army goes first, and a certain and Meng Qiu stay and wait for you... A day or two in the evening is fine! ”
Watching the herald pass on the orders one by one, Zhang Yong turned his head to look at Peng Yi, who was panting beside him, untied the water bladder on his waist and handed it over.
"No, it's just a hill, waiting for someone to catch their breath... Alone. ”
took the water bladder and poured a few sips, Peng Yi wiped the sweat stains on his forehead and gasped.
But... When Peng Yi looked up at the "mountain" not far away, there was still a feeling of despair in his eyes.
It is said to be a mountain, but the size of this "mountain" is no less than that of ordinary small and medium-sized mountains, and it may take two or three hours for normal people to climb over it.
Can... At this time, you can't back down no matter what, and you have to stick to it when you bite the blood, otherwise when he becomes famous all over the world in the future... was shaken out by someone Peng Yi was stopped by a mountain, he is not as good as any reckless man in the tens of thousands of troops, how can he not laugh off the big teeth of the people in the world... Be the laughing stock of his life?
Seeing Peng Yi gritting his teeth and continuing to move forward, Zhang Yong shook his head and didn't persuade more... Who still doesn't allow a man to have a little self-esteem!
If you really can't hold on, you're actually stunned and carrying... It's also a good choice, no.
Touching his smooth chin and looking at the Zhang banner fluttering in front of him, Zhang Yong's steps became more and more brisk... After all, in this life, Hanzhong is his home.
Homesickness, this feeling... If someone else has it, he will naturally have it... And it's even more intense.
......
"Newspaper... The second general has led the army to arrive at the Micang Ancient Road, and will arrive at Nanzheng in less than three days. ”
Nanzheng, Taishou Mansion.
Since the front passed back, Zhang Wei led the army to defeat Pang Yi... When he led the army back, Zhang Lu's smile never stopped, especially after the follow-up battle report reported Zhang Yong's performance in detail, the corners of Zhang Lu's mouth increased by a few points... In the past few days, the amount of food has increased a lot.
"Good"
Hearing the words of the guard, Zhang Lu, who was enjoying fragrant tea with Yan Pu... I couldn't help but scream and quickly stood up... There was a bit of joy in his eyes, and he didn't even notice that the hot tea soaked through his clothes.
The Zhang family in Hanzhong, although it is said that Zhang Yong's generation is still prosperous, but when it comes to the total number of the upper and lower generations, the number of blood relatives has just reached ten fingers... Zhang Wei and Zhang Yong were on an expedition, and Zhang Lu was very worried about himself.
Zhang Wei said that after all, he has been in battle for a long time and is used to going out, but Zhang Yong... After all, he is the only one among his sons and daughters who throws his pen and fights in battle, and the only one who is free from his wings... The heirs who went to other places, Zhang Lu's thoughts and concerns about Zhang Yong's heart were naturally different than before.
"Zimao, the welcoming ceremony must be prepared solemnly, then... Let the soldiers and civilians in Nanzheng City take a good look at the demeanor of my Zhang clan's Qilin'er..."
"Don't worry! Now that the news of the victory of the army has already spread all over Nanzheng, who doesn't know the fathers and elders in the streets? On the day when the second general and the third prince return to the city, even if they don't make arrangements, the city gate... If you want to come, it will be crowded, and it will be very lively! ”
Being able to watch Hanzhong grow and prosper, Yan Pu was indescribably gratified, especially with Zhang Yong's two appearances, in this troubled world... Hanzhong can also be regarded as a successor, which can be said to add infinite possibilities to Hanzhong's future choices.
"Hahaha...
In short, this matter will be left to you, I don't care about the rest, in short, I must let the surrounding forces in Hanzhong know... The news of my Hanzhong's victory this time! ”
"Oh, one more thing!
Now entering November, I think that there will be heavy snow in a while, so that the county orders and counties must prepare food, grass, fires, clothes and quilts, etc., if there is a shortage of righteous houses along the way... It can be transferred from the government treasury!
In addition, the second brother and Yong'er have brought back thousands of elites from Pasir County, so be sure to prepare things to protect against the cold in advance... Don't let the people who have worked so hard to lose their hearts for a long time. ”
Listening to the sound of the wind rising outside the house, Zhang Lu's expression... Slowly calmed down.
It is naturally good that Zhang Wei and the others can end the war and return with a big victory before November, otherwise tens of thousands of troops can only survive in Hanchang in the middle of winter today... However, November this year is a good day for Hanzhong, and it is also a test, and the midwinter is approaching... This year's midwinter... I don't know how many people will die in the vast wind and snow.
"Don't worry, Zimao will do his best..."
Looking at Zhang Lu's expression, Yan Pu sighed slightly in his heart.
If the lord of his own family is a little less gentle and a little more decisive, there will never be only two counties in Hanzhong today.
Compared with Xiliang and Cao's... Most of the princes in the world, Zhang Lu is at least caring for the people, which is definitely a rare existence.
Compared to the other princes, they froze to death and starved to death... More than 1,000 people were under the rule of the Zhang clan in Hanzhong... Hanzhong has hardly exceeded three digits, but... Wasn't it precisely because of this that he swore to laugh at the beginning?
A moment later, Yan Pu stood behind Zhang Lu... Looking out of the house and smiling.
......
Three days later, south of the city.
As Yan Pu said to Zhang Lu, the morning dawn rises... Thousands of people of Nanzheng have gathered outside the south gate of the city, raising their heads one by one... Looking expectantly at the horizon in the distance.
If it weren't for the fact that many of the Han and Chinese military generals who greeted them were maintained, I am afraid that these people at the city gate would have already dispersed the welcoming ceremonial driver... Take a better position.
Defeat tens of thousands of enemies... Pang Yi bowed his head and admitted defeat, this is a big victory that Hanzhong has never had in the past few years, as a subject... When there is honor.
In the center of civil and military affairs, Zhang Lu stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the south... From time to time, a bit of mixed emotions flashed.
"Newspaper... The army of the second general has reached ten miles away! ”
......
"Newspaper... The army is five miles away! ”
......
"Newspaper... The army is three miles away! ”
In the distance, as a team of sentry riders came one after another... Under the gaze of the military and civilians in Nancheng, a black shadow finally appeared on the horizon in the distance, and the army... Triumph.
"Naruto... Bugle! ”
At the signal of Yan Pu, more than a dozen horns enveloped the entire south of the city with the heavy and melodious sound of bells... Spread far away.
The people of Nanzheng, who were originally a little noisy... Under the rendering of this atmosphere, everyone was silent,... Just quietly looked at the black armor in the distance.
Nanzheng City seems to have become solemn and majestic at this moment.
"Dismount the whole army! Tighten the armor! ”
Three hundred zhang away from the city gate, under Zhang Wei's order, the marching speed of the army slowed down significantly, and a group of generals followed Zhang Wei to turn over and dismount, tie up his armor and collect his blades, and then followed Zhang Wei's pace... Walked towards the countless figures in front of him.
"Look... Look, it's the second general... Two Generals"
"The second general is still so heroic, but it's a pity that the second general's oath will not be renewed, and the slave will be promised by himself, so... Even if it's dead, willingly..."
"Promise by example? Sister-in-law Wang, do you dare to say this? I'm not afraid of being sprayed to death by spitting stars!
You don't look at what age you are now, you are no longer the twenty-eight-year-old Sai Xi Shi ... The old man is Zhu Huang, and he dares to secretly promise the second general! ”
......
"Behind the second general should be the third son! It's really heroic, quite the style of Taishou when he was young... Eh, it's a pity that a certain pearl has been out of the cabinet, but it's a pity... It's a pity. ”
"I heard that the third prince went out to fight this time, and with only 300 people, he captured the city of Anhan, which was garrisoned by thousands of enemy troops... I don't know if it's true or not! ”
"I heard that this so-and-so has a younger brother who serves as a captain in the battalion, and the third prince has indeed made a meritorious service this time... Three hundred elites dare to run for a hundred miles and go straight to Anhan, so courageous and strategic, or have the posture of a champion. ”
"Now that the third prince is beginning to emerge, I don't know that Taishou will hand over the future of Hanzhong to the eldest son... It's still in the hands of the third son..."
"Shhhh Li Laohan, are you looking for death! Now that you are in the prime of life, do you dare to talk nonsense...?? ”
......
"Zhang Wei... Meet the Lord! ”
"We meet my lord!"
Looking at Zhang Lu in front of him, Zhang Wei looked slightly excited... However, due to the scene, he still led tens of thousands of soldiers behind him to perform the courtesy of the monarch and ministers... In an instant, the sound of the mountain and the tsunami swept wildly, and the momentum of victory came... The soldiers and civilians present were shocked.
With this elite soldier on the side, although Hanzhong is small... It can also be a pure land in the world, and it can ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment.
"Second brother, get up! Why do you and I need to be so polite?"
Helping Zhang Wei up, Zhang Lu naturally has a lot of things and many things to talk about with Zhang Wei, but... Some people have been together for a long time, and they already understand everything in one eye, let alone father and son.
patted Zhang Wei's shoulder, and when he saw Zhang Lu take a few steps forward, he looked at the tens of thousands of kneeling soldiers and bowed his head and said:
"Soldiers, please stand up!
Defeat Pang Yi in this battle, raise the prestige of my Hanzhong, consolidate the foundation of my Hanzhong, and congratulate Hanzhong! Congratulations to Nakaro! Congratulations to my Zhang's unicorn! Even more for all of you who are fighting in front of you and fighting bloodily... Congratulate!
The man stands in the world, fights the sword sideways, and when he protects the territory and the people, and expands the territory with blood... You have done it, Zhang Lu represents the millions of Li people in Hanzhong... Thank you. ”
"I am willing to die for the Lord!"
"I am willing to die for the Lord!"
……
Seeing Zhang Lu bow in front of Han Chinese Wu and hundreds of people in Nanzheng... Whether it is the elite Dongzhou Army, or the Hanchang recruits, the recruits... or the new soldiers, they are all impressed by Zhang Lu's bearing... The soldier died for his confidant, and the winner is like this, so he should congratulate him!
For a time, the army outside the city was as powerful as a dragon, and countless soldiers looked up to the sky and roared through the sky.
On the side, Zhang Yong looked at Zhang Lu in front of him, his expression was slightly stagnant... There was a bit of surprise in his eyes.
His father is really not simple, just a few words... can completely win the hearts of thousands of recruits and soldiers, such a skill...
If you are in Hanzhong, you should be a hero for a while.
