Chapter 380: If you want to do it, strengthen yourself first

After Yao Duran blew out a few lamps and candles and went to bed and lay down, he hadn't told the story yet, but as usual, he took her hand to his dangerous place first.

Yao Duran didn't do what he wanted, so he quickly withdrew his hand, who knew that he picked up her hand and put it on again, Yao Duran withdrew his hand again, but he held her hand tightly and held it over, and then Yao Duran gave him a light and heavy blow before he put it away. The two of them competed like this for a while, Huo Jingcheng burst out laughing, and Yao Duran laughed closely.

The two of them finally cleared the sky after the rain.

Huo Jingcheng said: "Shout Liulang to listen, and the husband can do it too." ”

Yao Duran said angrily: "Huo Jingcheng, let me tell you, if you doubt my sincerity again, I will ignore you again!" ”

"Don't." After Huo Jingcheng finished speaking, he hesitated for a long time, and finally held back a sentence, slow and serious.

"Dye'er, I want to ask you, if I had told you the truth, would you have left me to reunite with him?"

Yao Duran listened to it and said without hesitation: "No." Rokuro, that's true. If I hadn't known the truth before I told you, maybe I would have forgiven him, or maybe I would have gone to him. If I had known the truth after following you, then I would not have changed, I would still cherish you, and I would have ...... to you when I decided to be with you. It's already heart-moving. ”

Huo Jingcheng's heartstrings relaxed, gently stroked her long hair, and muttered: "Dye'er, I'm afraid of losing you, I'm afraid." I'm even more afraid that after you know the truth, you will change your mind, regret marrying me, and want to go with him. It's just that now that he's reversed, I can't hide it from you. But with your answer, I'm really at ease. ”

After hearing this, Yao Duran's heart softened, hugged his waist and said softly: "Liulang, I won't leave you." After that, she raised her eyes to look into his eyes again, and added seriously: "I will only love you more." ”

The two looked at each other for a long time, and the corners of Huo Jingcheng's lips slowly hooked a smile: "Okay, Ran'er, the monarch doesn't talk about love lightly, but I'm willing to say that word for you." Listen, I'll just say it once. ”

"Dye'er, Liulang also loves you like a treasure, this heart and this affection, go deep, unswerving."

Yao Duran smiled back, pillowed his head on his chest, and said, "What about the story? ”

Huo Jingcheng smiled and hugged her: "I'll talk about it tomorrow night, sleep and sleep, and send the army out tomorrow morning." ”

This is indeed a major event that cannot be delayed, Yao Duran obediently closed his eyes, and in the silence, there were secretly waves in his heart.

The years she had been confused about were finally clear tonight. The person she had been puzzled with finally understood tonight.

It turned out that he also endured a lot alone, but he was always silent, and finally lost and quit her life cleanly.

Just for now? He turned out to be the opposite, and he also ascended the throne as emperor in North Vietnam, and he didn't know his purpose.

In this way, he once again cast a new fog in her heart......

......

Early the next morning, Nguyen Hung was about to lead an army of 50,000 to North Vietnam! This time, there was also Cheng Sheng, the leader of the martial arts palace recommended by Du Yan before! It is said that this person is well versed in the art of marching, and many people praise him, which shows that he has some real skills. Huo Jingcheng did not use this person out of many considerations for Du Yan that day, but later Zhuangshan recommended it, and Huo Jingcheng used it. Now, it was time to test his skills, so Huo Jingcheng appointed him as a deputy general to lead the Northern Expedition with Ruan Xinglu, a veteran.

The earth is full of spring, and the sky is dazzling. Under the city tower, thousands of troops and horses are ready to go, and the scene is grand and spectacular! On the city tower, Huo Jingcheng stood against the wall, his clothes fluttering. He looked at the black oppressive army below, and raised his voice: "Those who offend me will be punished even if they are far away!" You are waiting to defend your family and the country, and you are all loyal and brave on the journey, and I am proud to have you! I am waiting for your triumphant return! ”

When the words fell, 10,000 people chanted in unison, resounding all over the world!

"Whoever offends me will be punished even if he is far away—"

"Whoever offends me will be punished even if he is far away—"

"Living up to Jun's grace - returning triumphantly-"

"Living up to Jun's grace - returning triumphantly-"

All the officers and soldiers are full of spirit, and the military spirit is excited!

Huo Jingcheng glanced around, slowly raised his hand, and the scene quieted down.

Several people began to shuttle through the army to distribute wine bowls to everyone, and several people poured wine for the soldiers in a row. For a time, the aroma of wine soared.

After the wine was poured, Huo Jingcheng stabilized his bowl of wine, faced the thousands of troops, and said loudly: "Soldiers! Today, our monarchs and ministers drink this bowl of Zhuangxing wine, and I see you off on the expedition, looking forward to your triumph! When he returns, I will reward the three armies, and we will take the sheep and drink again, and the monarchs and ministers will celebrate together! ”

After that, Huo Jingcheng first raised his head and poured the liquor, and then smashed the wine bowl with a bang! The Zhuangxing wine bowl is intended to be only once, and the wine bowl of this Zhuangxing wine will never be used again, and it is also intended to be an action to break the kettle and sink the boat.

The king drank the Zhuangxing wine first, and the ten thousand people downstairs in the city followed closely and began to drink together! After drinking, they all shook their arms and smashed the bowl, and for a while, the sound of breaking was earth-shattering and endless! Such a magnificent momentum can also stimulate the soldiers' desire to win, thereby improving their combat effectiveness.

After drinking the Zhuangxing wine, Qin An handed the drumstick to Huo Jingcheng, Huo Jingcheng took it and shouted solemnly: "The army is leaving!" "Shouting, he walked to a huge drum and beat his arms!

The drum beats regularly and heavily, one by one, hitting people's hearts!

In the sound of thundering drums, Ruan Xinglu gave an order: "Let's go-"

Thousands of troops and horses finally began to march in formation, and the army was mighty, step by step, with bravery. The drums beat continuously, one by one, with determination.

In the second year of Nanqian Tianze, on September 18, the emperor sent troops to the north, with 50,000 soldiers and horses to conquer the northern anti-thief Xiahou Jue. On the day of the army's march, the emperor personally beat the drum and sent the army out, until the 50,000 soldiers and horses were all gone, and the drumming finally stopped.

At this point, the war between the North and the South officially began.

The army trekked through mountains and rivers, and the people of the Northland were panicked.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and it is estimated that the army is almost in the north. And on the seventh day of the first month of October, another urgent report from the north was suddenly presented to Huo Jingcheng's imperial case with thousands of miles of wind and dust.

This urgent report was sent by Uncle Wang of Huo Jingcheng of Huaiyang City in the north and King Yan, the brother of the first emperor.

And after Huo Jingcheng read this urgent report, he was shocked and angry in an instant!

It turned out that without waiting for him to cut down, Qiao Fengzhi had already made the first move! At the end of August, he set out with half of his troops from Beijing and began to conquer the other cities of North Vietnam! It's been more than a month! And half a month ago, Huaiyang City in the north had already been defeated and lost! After Qiao Fengzhi captured Huaiyang City, he captured King Yan to control the city army, and finally succeeded in swallowing the garrison in the city to strengthen his army!

However, this is nothing, what is even more infuriating is that when the old Yan King was defeated and lost, he said that Qiao Fengzhi actually held Princess Roufu, who was six months pregnant, hostage to force them to surrender!

So, Lao Yan Wang looked at his niece as a hostage, and he was still holding his stomach with his body, could he, Uncle Wang, still be able to let go of his hands and feet? Therefore, the loss of Huaiyang City was caught off guard, but it was also inevitable!

Qiao Fengzhi also knows the truth that if you want to do it, you must first settle inside, and you are also well versed in the truth that if you want to succeed, you must first strengthen yourself! So he first hollowed out the north and took it for himself to strengthen himself! When you accumulate enough strength, you can compete with the south!

Damn Joe Bongzhi! Holding his sister hostage? Huo Jingcheng was shocked, angry, and inexplicable about Huo Jingrou's pregnancy! How could she be pregnant? Whose? If it is Qiao Fengzhi's, even if Qiao Fengzhi doesn't like Huo Jingrou, he won't be so vicious as to threaten others with his own flesh and blood, right? So, is it Shen Linfeng? Huo Jingcheng pondered angrily, and counted the months when Huo Jingrou was pregnant, and as a result, he found that her pregnancy was indeed in the south......

And his old Uncle Wang, a handful of bones, turned out to be a prisoner?

Angry and angry, hateful! Huo Jingcheng was attacked by this kind of emotion and almost vomited blood! With nowhere to release his anger, the iron arm suddenly waved fiercely, smashing some things on the table with a bang!

The movement was shocking, and Qin An came in tremblingly to clean up.

Huo Jingcheng's face was solemn, and he reprimanded angrily: "Half a month ago, the army was defeated and lost, and it took half a month for this news to come, so in this half a month, Qiao Fengzhi should have already switched to the battle and led the army to capture the next city!" ”

And Princess Qiao Fengzhi is holding her hostage, and the princes of the Huo family in the north are either her uncle or her siblings, and they will all be unable to let go of their hands and feet at that time! This means that they lose more than they win!

Huo Jingcheng's anger has penetrated deep into his limbs and hundreds of bones, and he can't finish it for a while, but the situation in the north is urgent, and he still has to do business!

For today's plan, either send an urgent report to the princes of the Huo family in the north, and ask them to quickly lead the troops to evacuate, so that although they surrender the empty city, they will keep their troops! Otherwise, it will be broken by Qiao Fengzhi's army! Or, send an urgent report, so that they can stop caring about Princess Roufu, try their best to defend the city, and fight with Qiao Fengyi! Drag until the army arrives in the south!

So, is it war or retreat?

In the end, Huo Jingcheng thought that their Huo family did not abandon the city and retreat! I'd rather die of a cow than overturn! As a member of the Huo family, you must die in the front battle, not flee like a lost dog!

So, after careful consideration, Huo Jingcheng quickly made a neutralizing decision!

That is, send an urgent report to the princes of the Huo family in the north, ask them to choose a city, and then each lead their troops to this city to converge! After gathering troops, we will join up with the army to the south as soon as possible, and then fight against Qiao Fengzhi's rebels together! As long as there are no rebels and one by one, what is the difficulty?

As for the Xiahou princes in the north, there is no movement for the time being, and then we will see what happens.

Huo Jingcheng settled down, and immediately picked up his pen and wrote, one by one, the iron order is like a mountain, just wait for the paint to be sent to the north immediately, and issue it to the princes of the Huo family!

On the same day, several of his urgent reports were sent.

After finishing this matter, Huo Jingcheng ordered Qin An with a cold face and said, "Qin An! It is rumored that Shen Linfeng entered the palace! ”

"Yes, yes." Qin An went out to run errands in a panic.

Huo Jingcheng was still panting angrily, even if it was him, he never expected that once the wind and clouds changed, the storm would suddenly come violently.
