Zhao Dangshi was in pain, pushed back half a step, and touched his face to look at the other party. The man was also looking over, and found that it was the top boss, so he hurriedly apologized: "The subordinates are not long-sighted, and they have collided with the envoys, please punish them!" ”

This person is similar to Yang Zhaofeng, both are thin and long, twenty-five or sixteen years old, Zhao Dangshi knows him, but he is not convinced by Xue Feixian and Meng Aocao who are called the "three hussars" under Han Gon.

Like Meng Aocao and Hao Shaoqi, no one remembers Lian Buxin's real name, so he is witty and humorous, and he loves to talk about "Lao Tzu doesn't believe", so he gets the name "Don't Believe". He didn't care, he took it calmly. Compared with the arrogant and domineering Xue Feixian, he is more obedient and polite, and Zhao Dangshi naturally will not blame him for this trivial matter.

Zhao Dangshi waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, where is Mr. Lian going in this hurry?" ”

Lian Buxin said with a big grin: "It's not Lao Meng yet, it's like a bud that hasn't been weaned, and I want me to cover him when he farts." It was said that a few war horses had horse mouth sores and asked me to show them. ”

Zhao Dangshi looked at him curiously and said, "Can't you see, Lian always has this kind of ability?" ”

Lian Buxin "Hehe" laughed a few times and said: "I don't know, the old man in the family has been a veterinarian all his life, and I am not good, and I have not been able to inherit his mantle." But after seeing more, I still understand a little bit about fur. ”

The two were talking, when they saw a woman approaching them. The woman was not very old, sixteen or seventeen years old, with fair skin, melon seed face, crescent moon eyebrows, dressed in a plain dress, holding a short sword in her hand, and her steps were not hurried or slow, giving people a sense of beauty and refinement.

Zhao Dangshi had never seen this woman in the camp before, and he was puzzled, so he didn't wait for him to ask, but only listened to Lian Bubelief: "Sister Aliu, why are you here?" ”

The woman didn't seem to know Zhao Dangshi, so she walked closer and replied directly: "The camp has been under martial law for more than ten days, and today I am no longer grounded. At this time, he caught a glimpse of Zhao Dangshi, his eyebrows moved slightly, and he looked at Lian Buxin with a puzzled expression.

"Old ...... I don't believe you can stay in your tent for more than ten days. Lian Buxin still couldn't help but blurt out, but because of Zhao Dangshi, the title was adjusted in time. After he finished saying this, he was very refreshed, and then introduced: "Sister Aliu, this is Zhao Du's envoy." Du Envoy, she is the sister of Meng Jiang, and she is in the camp with the army. ”

Hearing the words "Zhao Duzhi", the woman didn't seem to react, and said with a light smile: "Zhao Ducheng, fortunately I will ......" Halfway through the words, she suddenly saw that Lian Buxin was constantly squeezing her eyebrows at herself. She subconsciously thought that "Zhao Duzhi" was the name of this young general, but at this moment, she "clicked" in her heart, and then she came back to her senses, quietly stuck out her tongue, and said hard-headedly, "I...... The little girl's name is Meng Liu...... I've seen all the envoys. ”

Zhao Dangshi is very observant, and Meng Liu's small movements are all in the bottom of his eyes. The one who doesn't know is not guilty, and he doesn't have any shackles, so he didn't pay too much attention to the other party's embarrassment, and changed the topic: "Do you know that I regret it in my heart now?" ”

Meng Liu looked at him in wonder, and the two pear vortices appeared slightly, very cute: "What, what regret?" ”

Zhao Dangshi smiled heartily and said: "If I had known that there was a beautiful woman in the camp, the order of the grounding would be issued?" ”

When Meng Liu heard this, although he knew that his words were ridiculous, he had to be praised indirectly, his cheeks were also pale red and slightly red, and he looked away embarrassedly. Zhao Dangshi saw that her eyes were full of waves, and her complexion was as beautiful as a hibiscus, and he suddenly felt inspired.

"Lao Meng has a tooth, but the sister is so beautiful, I can't imagine it." Lian Buxin pretended to be pretentious, and lost no time in "being surprised".

In all fairness, Meng Aocao doesn't look bad, just because he laughs and stumbles, he loses a lot of points, but compared to Lian who has a donkey face, I don't know where Zhou Zheng is going. Meng Liuyue raised her eyebrows and said angrily: "You are handsome! ”

Lian Buxin laughed and said: "Xiao Nizi is so powerful, she works so hard to protect her brother, and she follows her husband, if I say a few more words, won't I cut you down?" ”

Meng Liu couldn't say anything about him, his face turned red, Zhao Dangshi coughed lightly twice, and relieved him: "Where is Miss Meng going?" Although the ban on the camp has been lifted today, it is better not to go to some places. ”

Lian Buxin's eyesight was good, and he echoed: "Yes." There are a lot of forbidden areas in the camp, Ah Liu, you don't know the situation, if you mistakenly break into the forbidden place, I am afraid that it will be dangerous. He wanted to get out as soon as possible, and without waiting for Meng Liu to speak, he hurriedly said, "Let the envoy take you around." With a quick salute to Zhao Dangshi, he walked away.

Meng Liu's original intention was to follow Lian Buxin, but the other party disappeared in the blink of an eye, angry and anxious, Zhao Dangshi said to her: "Where Miss Meng wants to go, I'll take you there." ”

"No, not necessarily...... Thank you for your kindness, the little girl still went back to the tent to rest. Meng Liu looked embarrassed, and refused Zhao Dangshi's invitation in a panic, because he was shy, his cheeks were even more flushed than Fang Cai. Before Zhao Dangshi's words of persuasion came out, Meng Liu hurriedly saluted him and ran away.

"There are beautiful women in the southern country, and they are as beautiful as peaches and plums."

Shaanxi is not a southern country, but Zhao Dangshi looked at Meng Liu's slender figure gradually drifting away, and sighed for no reason. He didn't know why he had suddenly become sentimental, he was so busy with everything, he didn't have time to think about personal problems, and when he was free, sometimes he felt quite lonely.

Thirty and standing, Zhao Dangshi is not thirty, twenty-six this year, and has a deep understanding of "morality, speech, and body", but as Qin Qigong once said, this "establishment" should also include "establishment" and "establishment". It can be said proudly that Zhao Ying is Zhao Dangshi's "industry", but that "home" is still unheard of.

In the depths of his memory, Zhao Dangshi should have gotten married when he was eighteen years old, and his fiancée was either someone else, or Wang Laixing's sister who was married to him. It's a pity that the team to send off relatives went halfway and collided with the chaotic soldiers, and those officers and soldiers didn't know where the guest soldiers or fugitives were, indiscriminately, killed everyone cleanly, plundered the money, and left. Even Wang Laixing's sister was cut off her head and her face was cut with a knife, as one of the "Kou Heads".

Zhao Dangshi's father has been a cow and a horse for decades, in order to one day be able to handle the marriage for his children, and take his daughter-in-law into Zhao's house in a beautiful way. Disaster flies, and the hope of a lifetime is in vain. The honest peasants did not dare to find arrogant theories of the official army. Under grief, he was bedridden and died within a few days. Zhao Dangshi still can't forget his father's cloudy eyes full of infinite loss and grief before he died. From those eyes, there is no hope or expectation, only emptiness and dead silence.

Therefore, Zhao Dangshi later obeyed the thief without hesitation. Even if he had to endure the life of worrying and putting his life on the edge of the knife every day and night, even if he was seriously injured and dying because of countless battles, even if he lost all his relatives and friends from the thief and only Wang Laixing was left alone, he still did not regret it at all. At that time, he just wanted to get justice for himself, even if it might never get back.

And now, as his strength grows, his thinking has begun to slowly change. What is it just for yourself, why not be righteous and awe-inspiring, and seek justice for the world?

So what is justice in the world?

For many sleepless nights, Zhao Dangshi asked himself, what is the meaning of fighting so far? If it was just to get justice for himself, then after killing thousands of officers and soldiers, he could already say his wish to his father under the loess. The question is, what's next? What exactly are you and Zhao Ying going to do, and what are you fighting for? If it was just to survive, he didn't have to kill Tuo Pangao and capture Gao Yingen before, and he didn't even have to bother to make the next battle plan, he only needed to take hundreds of cronies and brothers, hide in the mountains and mountains, and rob homes and houses for the rest of his life, and live happily. Or find a temple, escape into the empty door, and face the ancient Buddha of the green lantern from now on, and do not ask about the world.

But it turned out that none of this was what he wanted. He was very confused and confused, he didn't know where his path with Zhao Ying would end. Therefore, he could only cross the river by feeling the stones, taking one step at a time, and at the same time, he constantly deceived himself in his heart to "seek justice for the world".

He hopes that someone can show him a clear path, and he hopes that he can naturally understand the meaning of moving forward. But for now, at least, he has nothing.

Back to the original thoughts, the foundation of a husband is to start a family. Previously, Zhao Dangshi did not consider the choice of his partner. The first thing he considered was Zhang Miaobai. This woman is arrogant and arrogant, but she has a quick mind, no less than a beard, and communicating with her is full of fun. However, whenever he expressed his desire to marry Zhang Miaobai, without exception, he would be strongly opposed by the generals. Regardless of others, Wang Laixing is the one with the strongest performance, and Zhao Dangshi has to consider his opinion. Marrying a wife and taking a concubine is good in itself, but if it causes turmoil in the camp and even the resentment of subordinates, it will outweigh the losses.

Zhao Dangshi was unmarried before, and marrying Zhang Miaobai was equivalent to taking a second stubble, which was not suitable. She is several years older than Zhao Dangshi, and judging from the reactions of the generals, Zhang Miaobai does have various problems herself, and she is really not a good candidate.

Therefore, since he broke off Na Zhang Miaobai's thoughts, Zhao Dangshi rarely went to her again. Recently, I heard that there seemed to be some rumors on her side, and in his busy schedule, Zhao Dangshi didn't have the heart to investigate again.

The second is Qin Shilu. To be honest, Zhao Dangshi has a good impression of her. Qin Qigong also often pouted beside him, fanning the flames, and hoped that Zhao Dangshi would marry his niece. It's just that after coming into contact, to say an old-fashioned thing, Zhao Dangshi feels that he still treats her as a sister. As her own woman, she is nominally the heroine of Zhao Ying, and she is not qualified just by relying on her appearance and appearance. Zhao Dangshi is not a vulgar person who only uses women as tools to vent his desires, he hopes that his other half will have enough ability to share his worries. According to this standard, Qin Shilu, who is still a child's heart, is obviously too tender, Zhao Ying's military affairs are complicated, if he has to be distracted to take care of her, Zhao Dangshi doesn't have that energy.

Qin Qigong and they don't understand why Zhao Dangshi hesitates to take a wife and concubine, but for Zhao Dangshi himself, in the end, there is the thinking of later generations, which was originally an advanced concept, but in the eyes of Qin Qigong and others, it has become pedantic.

Hou Dagui once discussed with Xu Hui, Hao Shaoqi and others in private, for fear that Zhao Dangshi would be a Lu man who was not close to women. Therefore, when counting the results of the battle several times, he deliberately selected some good-looking women to send to him to see his reaction. It's just that the result is normal every time, Zhao Dangshi smiled and accepted it, and behaved without resistance. Especially after inspecting the bodies of several Qingqi people who were sent, Hou Dagui and others were convinced that Zhao Dangshi did not act on the spot, but actually operated it, so the suspicion of his physical defects was relieved.

After thinking about it, he finally decided that Zhao Dangshi had lofty ambitions, and vulgar fans didn't look down on him at all. Adhering to this view, Hou Dagui and Guo Hutou are the most, and both of them are secretly determined to get a wife or daughter of a high-ranking official with status and reputation for Zhao Dangshi sooner or later, not only to share the worries of the other party, but also to make a long face for themselves.

The Zhao battalion rested in the Heishuiyu area until mid-September, during which the deployment of personnel and armor of all departments of the Zhao battalion was basically complete, and the initial coordination training of the newly attached soldiers and horses was also completed. A few days ago, Tangma reported urgently that the scorpion block Tuoyangkun was defeated in Henan and returned to Shaanxi, causing chaos south of Yan'an. Although its momentum was not as good as it was at the beginning, Hong Chengchou still did not dare to slack off, and squeezed out the forces to encircle and suppress Li Zicheng and others to intercept it. At the same time, the officers and soldiers in Xi'an also seemed to have a tendency to move northward, which should have been caused by Hong Chengchou's request for support to Sun Chuanting.

Along with this news, there was also an emergency report on logistics and grain, and under Zhao Dangshi's final decision, Zhao Battalion took advantage of the distraction of the officers and soldiers in the north to open up.

Due to the loss of the Meridian Valley, the marching route was set to go west through the two counties of Ju and Xu, and take the Fu Luo Road. Han Gon and Yang Zhaofeng followed Gao Yingxiang once not long ago, thinking that it was easier to walk than the Meridian Road, Zhao Dangshi also walked it last year, and they were familiar with the path, so it was more appropriate to choose this road.

The whole army was divided into three divisions, Xu Hui and Qin Jinxiao led the front and left two battalions in the front, Zhao Dangshi and Hou Dagui, Hao Shaoqi, Wang Laixing's center, right and back three battalions were in the middle, and Han Gon's horse army was broken. Behind this, Zhang Miaoshou led the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to follow at the end.

Obviously, although Sun Chuanting relied on his personal ability to form a considerable number of troops in a short period of time, he still did not have deep roots in Shaanxi. At present, he can only hold on to the city or send reinforcements to do some auxiliary operations similar to supporting Hong Chengchou to fight the flank, and he is not yet able to organize a general battle alone. And according to the latest Tang report, the Shaanxi governor Yamen had a rebellion, the rebels were in chaos, and Sun Chuanting was busy with Annei, and he was too anxious to deploy a large army to block the Zhao camp. Therefore, on the way through the two counties, Zhao Ying was not intercepted on a large scale.

Unlike when I was in Meridian Valley, I went south along Fu Luo Road, and the weather was sunny day by day. There is less mud suffering, but more heat and sun. However, for Zhao Ying, who was in a hurry to march, it was better to be stuck in the same place than to be stuck in place.

Ten days later, when Zhao Dangshi rode his horse and looked at the familiar piers, the whole army of Zhao Ying had already left the south entrance of Fu Luo.
