"You bastards, so rude, dare to lock me up, do you know who I am? I want to see Zhao Hui! ”

The arrogant shouting made the soldiers in front of the Shuaifu, who locked Murong Chengtai's hands, feel a little more powerful, and his face turned red in pain. The military academy in front of the door stared at him coldly: "Boy, no matter who you are, dare to be rude in front of the Shuai Mansion, as long as the commander gives the order, someone will cut you immediately!" ”

"You dare!" Being stared at by the military academy's cold gaze, Murong Chengtai was intimidated, but his mouth was not soft at all, and he stiffened his neck.

Xiang Xun walked out and saw this scene. Sweeping around, several sergeants were disarmed together as family members, with indifferent expressions, and their eyes were on Murong Chengtai: "You are Murong Chengtai?" ”

"It's me! Who are you? Murong Chengtai struggled to himself, the more he struggled, the more painful it became, and he gritted his teeth and answered.

"Southwest aid envoy, Xiang Xun!" Xiang Xun said.

"What about Zhao Hui? I want to see him! "Murong Chengtai is still arrogant.

looked at this person coldly, Xiang Xun had a trace of disgust in his eyes, and immediately raised his hand and ordered: "This person, arrogant and rude, rushed into the Shuai Mansion, and if he said one more word, he would be killed immediately!" ”

"Yes!" The surrounding soldiers shouted in unison when they heard the order.

The so-called murderous aura, Murong Chengtai probably felt it, opened his mouth, but didn't dare to say anything after all, but opened his eyes and stared at Xiang Xun stubbornly, his face full of disbenement.

Facing Murong Chengtai's gaze, Xiang Xun stepped forward and said coldly: "This is the Shuai Mansion, the place where tens of thousands of imperial Shu troops are commanded, let your royal relatives and nobles shout at your rebellion today, insult the behavior of the commander, and behead you to correct the law, Your Majesty will not say anything!" ”

Facing Xiang Xun's almost emotionless eyes, for the first time in Murong Chengtai's heart, an emotion called "fear" was born: "I ......"

Seeing his timidity, Xiang Xun waved his hand and said: "Ben will not advocate punishment without teaching, remember your first arrival, and avoid death for the time being." However, I would like to warn you that once you have entered the army, you should abide by the military law and do not violate it, otherwise, the military law will be ruthless, and it will be too late to regret it! “

After speaking, Xiang Xun Chao ordered left and right: "First stick him with fifty military sticks, and then, tell him about the camp rules and military discipline!" ”

"Yes!"

Baoji Nancheng Xiang, in the barracks, Murong Chengtai was lying on a military couch, his pants were taken off cleanly, his buttocks were beaten to a bloody blur, and the staff wound almost spread to his waist. Fifty military sticks, a lot of sticks, and a stick is not merciful, if it weren't for Murong Chengtai's martial arts since he was a child, he was strong and healthy, and he would have been beaten up even if he was not killed.

The general sent to him by Murong Yanchao carefully drugged him, and said in his mouth: "Childe, in the army, it is no better than other places, military law is not a joke, just in front of the Shuai Mansion, it can scare us." If you are really killed, we will have to die on the battlefield......"

"I don't believe it, they dare to kill me!" Murong Chengtai responded, and seemed to be still unconvinced.

However, when he said this, he didn't know the bottom of his own heart.

"Childe-"

"Enough, when did you dare to teach me a lesson!" Murong Chengtai couldn't help but say angrily.

The weather was hot, coupled with the trauma on his buttocks, the beads of sweat on Murong Chengtai's forehead, like raindrops, dripped down his dark eyes, nose and cheeks, almost seeping into his eyes. He has grown so big, and he has never suffered such grievances, but perhaps there is a kind of stubbornness in his bones, including when he is scolded by the cane, from beginning to end, he does not snort.

In the eyes, I don't know if it's sweat or tears......

"Childe, does it hurt, do you want to light it?"

"Take your medicine!" Murong Chengtai took a deep breath, answered, paused, and asked, "How long will it take for my injury to recover?" ”

"In two or three days, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get off the ground!"

Rarely, Murong Chengtai sighed, a little unwilling: "I came to Fengxiang, and I still want to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, and it is really a mistake to receive this military staff!" ”

Hearing his words, the family general didn't know how to feel, it's all like this, and if he can save his life, he will be merciful, this little Langjun still wants to go to the battlefield.

"Don't worry, Childe, wait to recover from your injuries, there will be a chance!" The family will only be able to comfort him like this.

After a while, Murong Chengtai suddenly asked, as if he was puzzled: "Zhao Dushuai and Xiang Envoy Jun really don't seem to care about my identity......

The general was silent, this is a rough man, not good at words, and he doesn't know how to answer the doubts of this son-in-law. Of course, in his opinion, Murong Yanchao doted on this little son too much.

"You say, do I want to go and ask Zhao Dushuai and the envoy for guilt?" Murong Chengtai asked again abruptly, his voice was very low, and he looked a little embarrassed.

......

The iron horse autumn wind is scattered.

It is said that this is the key pass that stands in the southern suburbs of Baoji and controls the throat of Sichuan and Shaanxi. Although it is still the height of summer, there is no rendering of the autumn wind of Xiao Suo, but Chengguan still stubbornly realizes its value and becomes a hard bone in the throat of the Shu army.

When the Shu army first arrived this spring, it was strong in the Qi army, Zhao Hui was able to defend Chencang with his few soldiers, and Li Tingqi was difficult to overcome with all the troops, even if it was because of the location of the scattered pass, so that he did not dare to attack with all his strength.

After returning to Weinan, Li Tingqi decided to make every effort to uproot Sanguan. So far, more than 15,000 Shu troops stationed under Sanguan City have launched more than 20 attacks in Sanguan, and there are more than 2,000 soldiers in direct battle losses, but Guancheng is still firmly in the hands of the Han army.

Zhao Hui succeeded Wang Jun and served as the Fengxiang Festival, and used Sanguan as a choke point, focusing on strengthening the construction of the Guancheng to prepare for the palace. There is no way, the fall of the four states of Qin and Feng made the defense of the Han in the southwest so passive, the Shu army could go out of the Qinling Mountains at any time to threaten Guanzhong, and the soldiers pointed directly at the Weihe Chengguan.

The guard general of Sanguan, named Wang Renzhen, was originally the tooth general of Liu Ci, the envoy of the Baoyi Army, and was recommended to take up the post of guard. Before the Shu army moved, Zhao Hui hurriedly increased his troops to 3,000, and hoarded a large amount of food and weapons in it. Therefore, after a few months of consumption, Guancheng still has spare strength.

And Wang Renzhen did not live up to the trust, with 3,000 soldiers, he faced several times the enemy, did not lose his position, and caused a lot of casualties to the Shu army. is like a reef in the ocean, always standing, which makes Li Tingqi, the commander of the Shu army, particularly annoyed.

The last battle in the city was ten days ago, and as the weather became hotter, both sides tacitly agreed to contain and burn the corpses of the soldiers who had fallen in the pass, so as not to breed the plague.

On the city, a burly and neat military general stood and looked out, silently thinking in his heart: "With this merit of defending the city against the enemy, it shouldn't be a problem to be promoted to three levels after the war......

This Han general, naturally Wang Renzhen, looked at the Shu army that had withdrawn from the siege of Guancheng, occupied the road by the mountains, and stood up in a conservative posture, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that the Shu army wanted to retreat?

"General, the marshal's mansion is here!"

Soon, after reading the military order from Zhao Hui, Wang Renzhen immediately cheered up and subconsciously leaned against the wall. After thinking for a while, he instructed his subordinates: "Gather all the capable fighters in the pass to Dongguan, give me wine and meat, and prepare me to attack at any time!" ”

"Yes!"

After several months of perseverance, only half of the Han army in the city remained, and those who were still able to attack and fight, let alone less than a thousand. He is 36 years old this year, and he is in the prime of life, and if he has the opportunity, he has to seize it.

In the Shu army camp, the commander also held a military meeting and summoned the generals of the Chen Cang and Gudao battalions.

"There is only one thing to call the generals today. Your Majesty has an order to give up attacking Han and withdraw the army to return to Xingyuan Mansion! Li Tingqi sat up and sat on the case, and his voice was slightly low to announce the edict from Chengdu.

It shouldn't be an illusion, as soon as the words fell, the Shu generals present were obviously relieved, and their sitting postures seemed much more relaxed.

Li Tingqi was also a little helpless, and he was unhappy. Li Tingqi chased after Meng Zhixiang, the ancestor of Shu since he was a child, and he was raised by him, and he followed the right person, so he followed Meng Zhixiang to cut Shu and become self-reliant, all the way to the top, the official road was prosperous, and he was a general. After Meng Chang succeeded to the throne, he also entrusted this family of people who were born and knew their roots.

Because of this, the Han Dynasty was in vain, and Li Tingqi felt that he had failed Meng Chang's trust. Speaking of which, this is Meng Shu's second Northern Expedition, and the previous time, although Zhang Qianzhao was defeated, at least the four states of Qinfeng were taken.

But this time, he led his troops to the north, relying on the four states of Qin and Feng, but he did not get a single city, did not gain an inch, and wasted money and food in vain......

"General He, the retreating army is only worried about the pursuit of the Han army, and this matter behind the palace will be handed over to you!" Li Tingqi looked at He Zhengjian, the Jin minister who descended to Shu a few years ago.

He Jianjian was a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't dare to disobey the order, so he could only respond in a muffled voice: "Yes!" ”

"The rest of the generals will return to their camps, straighten out their troops and horses, pull out the village tomorrow, and slowly retreat south.
