Volume 2 Reverse Water Chapter 46 Xiang Cheng
With the return of Pei Shengqin, the Tiance Army and the Longxi Army also rested in Linyi for a few days and recuperated enough.
In the nineteenth year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, on October 23, the Tiance Army and the Longxi Army marched from Linyi and rushed to Xiangcheng Qinwang.
At this time, the former Qin was in the prosperous period of great material wealth, and the grand situation of the former Qin was recorded in the Book of Jin: from Chang'an to the prefectures, all the roads were sandwiched by the trees and willows, twenty miles and a pavilion, and forty miles and a post, and the traveler took it on the way.
On the march in the country, rather than on an expedition, the army did not carry any grain and grass baggage, and traveled lightly along the way. The official roads between the cities in the former Qin country were arranged with pavilions and posts, one every twenty miles, and supplies could be provided at any time.
With the strong official logistical support of the Former Qin, the army arrived in Xiangcheng on October 25, which took less than three days. It's not that the front line is tight, it's just that the eldest prince is in a hurry to go to the Qin Emperor to ask for merit.
Far away, Pei Shengqin saw the layers of patrolling armor soldiers stationed outside Xiangcheng, densely packed, like ants. When approaching these phalanxes, at the signal of the great prince, everyone dismounted and walked forward.
"Stop!" Several junior generals walked out of the phalanx and said, "Which team are you waiting for, report your name."
These junior generals obviously didn't recognize the eldest prince and others, but there were too many Qin troops in this city, and they could stand up for hundreds of miles just by standing side by side without doing anything. Even if Emperor Qin and the princes often show their faces in the army, it is difficult to make all the soldiers familiar with each other.
The eldest prince said loudly: "The eldest son of the Lone Emperor, Fu Pi, leads the Tiance Army and the Longxi Prefecture Qinwang Righteous Army, and enters the Chengqin King!"
Wang Guo'an on the side hurriedly stepped forward to hand over the token, which was inspected by several generals.
"See Your Highness!" After several generals confirmed that the seal letter was correct, they gave a military salute to Fu Pi with his fists in his fist, and said: "Please also ask the commander of the two Qinwang armies to register."
Fu Deng stepped forward and said: "Gu Nai Nan'an King Fu Deng, entrusted by Mao Shuai, led the 50,000 righteous troops of Longxi Prefectures to go to Xiangcheng Qinwang."
Mao Shuai is Mao Xing, who is also among the top ten famous generals of the former Qin, and the official worships the history of Hezhou Thorn, which is an optimus prime standing in the Hexi Corridor of the Great Qin Dynasty. Mao Xing is also the father-in-law of King Nan'an, that is, the biological father of the peerless "Great Qin Post-War", this is a military boss who resolutely stands on the side of King Nan'an.
"Mao Shuai and His Royal Highness King Nan'an are in the northwest, but they are still worried about the war in the southeast, and the safety of the Son of Heaven is really a loyal minister." The general picked up the pen to register, and at the same time slapped Fu Deng on the back without being salty.
Pei Yuanluo also stepped forward and said: "This general is the right general, Zitong is too guarded Pei Yuanluo, and Yu Huiji reorganized the Tiance army of 5,000 people, and went to Xiangcheng to guard His Majesty."
Emperor Qin's decree was only sealed, and he was not deprived of his original position, and at this time, Zitong's position was still on his father Pei Yuanluo.
"Tiance Army? Will it be funny? A general was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reacted, and said excitedly: "You are Lord Pei who led Pei to capture Huiji?"
Xiang Cheng still doesn't know the name of the Tiance Army, and he is still commensurate with Pei.
Pei Yuan bowed his head slightly and said: "It is the general."
The general's eyes lit up, and his eyes moved from Pei Yuanluo to the young man beside Pei Yuanluo. I saw the corner of the young man's mouth smiling, his expression was indifferent as if he was not shocked, and he let the bewitching beauty on the side hold his arm, with an indescribable chic.
The general ignored etiquette, stepped forward and grabbed Pei Shengqin's hand directly, and asked excitedly: "Then you are Little Pei Gongzi?"
"Exactly down there." Pei Shengqin smiled awkwardly, he faintly felt that this general seemed to be his...... A fan of someone?
"Brothers, the little Pei Gongzi who broke the meeting and killed Zhu Xu and captured the barbarian generals has come to Xiangcheng with the Pei brothers!"
As the general shouted, the surrounding patrol army arrays were in an uproar, and cheers continued to sound.
The capture of the big city of Huiji by 800 people is very legendary in itself, and the Qin court deliberately exaggerated the propaganda in order to stabilize the morale of the army and the people by virtue of the good news, which led to Pei Shengqin gaining many fans.
Especially Xiangcheng's army, they are the most brainwashed people from the imperial court's propaganda, if you change it to two thousand years later, that is, there are many brainless fans of Pei Shengqin in Xiangcheng's Qin army today.
The Longxi Army, the Tiance Army, and the middle and senior generals of the two armies were all arranged by the generals to camp outside the city, and Xiangcheng itself was only a small city with limited space. Only Fu Rong, Fu Pi, Fu Deng, Pei Shengqin and his son, Wang Guo'an brothers, Zhang Tianxi and a few others are eligible to enter the city to see His Majesty.
Magu also wanted to follow in, but was stopped by the armor: "If you are not summoned by Your Majesty, you are not allowed to trespass!"
"Then please wait a while, and the slave family will say a few words to the son." Magu pulled Pei Shengqin over and said in his ear: "Only I can solve this poisonous needle, if you don't detoxify it for seven days, you will definitely die." Don't make mistakes! ”
Poison needle? What poison needle? Pei Shengqin didn't understand, and suddenly felt a numb elbow, as if he had been stabbed by something. Pei Shengqin's face suddenly changed greatly, and he roared in a low voice: "You!"
Magu lowered her eyebrows and said: "Pei Gongzi is not strange, this is also for the sake of insurance, as long as Pei Gongzi comes to get the antidote on time, it will naturally be fine."
As a last resort, Magu actually didn't want to use poison to control Pei Shengqin. After all, following around can be said to be "protection", more or less a fig leaf. is poisoned, that is a clear unease.
I can't see Emperor Qin this time, Magu can barely accept it, as long as she follows Pei Shengqin, there will always be a chance in the future. But if Pei Shengqin loses control and bites out the third prince of Shi, not only will his dream of assassinating Qin be difficult to realize, but even the Great Zhao Restoration Organization may have to be uprooted.
Magu was also helpless, so she had no choice but to make this decision and use poison to warn Pei Shengqin not to talk nonsense.
Outsiders naturally can't see Magu's small movements clearly, but they only feel that the two of them are grinding their ears and temples, and they are extremely intimate. The eldest prince couldn't help but say: "Little Pei Gongzi and Miss Ma are really in love."
Pei Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and happily agreed: "This girl looks like she can also give birth, although she is only a people's daughter, but if she can give birth to a son and a half daughter for Wu'er, she can also let Wu'er accept her as a concubine."
The eldest prince laughed and said: "The lonely princess is also pregnant, but she doesn't know men and women. If Xiao Pei Gongzi saves up his strength and lets Miss Ma get pregnant as soon as possible, you and I may be able to get married. ”
The meaning of the eldest prince's wooing was too obvious, Pei Yuan laughed dryly, quietly glanced at King Nan'an, who was not far away, and no longer answered. I regretted it a little in my heart, I shouldn't have taken the words of the eldest prince just now, but I didn't want to offend King Nan'an unintentionally.
Finally waited until Pei Shengqin got rid of Magu, and Pei Shengqin and the others walked to Xiangcheng. The surroundings of Xiangcheng had already been densely surrounded by the army, and just passing through these armor soldiers, they had walked for several miles before they saw the not tall city walls of Xiangcheng.
At this time, the city gate had been opened, and I saw a middle-aged man wearing armor and standing on the edge of the city gate, giving people a gloomy and cold feeling.
The middle-aged general obviously knew everyone, but he knew that this was not the time to catch up, so he only said: "Your Majesty has called, please enter the city as soon as possible."
Pei Shengqin also recognized this person, in fact, most of the important ministers above the temple of Qianqin, Pei Shengqin could basically recognize it. This is thanks to the memory before the crossing, just the Lantern Festival, Pei Shengqin has been there several times before.
This person is the Xiangcheng Defender, the Great Qin Champion General, Murong Chui!
