Chapter 214: Something Happened
In the cold wind, there was silence in the camp tent of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and the three of them did not speak at this moment.
Lu Jue's eyes were full of doubts, looking at Fan Di, who had always been trusted by him, on his broad back, the flying snow outside gradually melted and shimmered.
Xiao Han frowned, although he didn't know why Fan Di was guilty, but according to his understanding of Fan Di in the past, he could make Fan Di feel so guilty and have a complicated face, which shows that this matter is not a trivial matter.
So he also waited curiously for what Fan Di said.
"General Fan Di, what the hell is going on?"
Lu Jue asked softly, his tone was slightly low, and he turned around and sat back on the main seat of the general, and for a while his heroic posture was revealed, and his lips as thin as cicada wings opened and closed gently.
For important military and political matters, it is natural to have a military and political appearance.
After seeing Lu Jue sitting upright, Fan Di lowered his head and endured the pain in his voice and replied hoarsely.
"Just now, a report came from Hanguguan that the soldiers of our former battalion were attacked by the masters of the Tidi tribe and all of them were killed."
Bang dang.
With a heavy sound of falling to the ground, the bamboo tube used to hold the token in Lu Jue's hand fell directly to the ground, and Lu Jue's heart fell with it.
"You say, Hangu Pass was captured by the Tidi? How long is the thing? ”
"Yesterday day."
When Lu Jue saw Fan Di kneeling on the ground, he was vaguely uneasy in his heart, but Hangu Pass was completely lost, but it was beyond Lu Jue's expectations.
What kind of topography is Hangu Pass? Although it is not said that one person is an official, it is also a good defensive array that can block a thousand people, why would he be like a no-man land by the Tidi clan in one day?
That's thousands of soldiers, even if they are defeated, according to Lu Jue's calculations, it is enough to support two or three days, waiting for the arrival of the army.
One day? This result completely made Lu Jue only feel dizzy for a while.
"General, are you alright?"
Xiao Han looked at Lu Jue's young face and suddenly had no blood, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him, his eyes full of concern.
Lu Jue only felt that his back was being pushed hard, and at the same time, a gentle and heavy internal breath poured into his body, stabilizing his mood, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"I'm fine."
Lu Jue turned his head to look at Xiao Han and nodded slightly, indicating that he was fine.
After all, Lu Jue was only in his early twenties, and he was faced with the heavy responsibility of taking charge of the Northern Expeditionary Army, which was already a little difficult in Xiao Han's opinion.
Now that I hear such news, I am afraid that my heart is already dead.
Seeing that Lu Jue's expression also eased, Xiao Han withdrew his hand to support Lu Jue, stood aside from the beginning, and quietly waited for Lu Jue to deal with the current matter of Hangu Pass.
"General Fan Di, Ben Shuai asked you, before the capture of Hangu Pass, can there be fortifications built according to Ben Shuai's words?"
Lu Jue's brows were tightly locked, his expression was serious, for this matter, it was the first thing he confirmed.
Fan Di nodded slightly and confirmed affirmatively.
"Back to the general, I sent your previous drawings before the soldiers of the forward battalion went, and according to the schedule, they should have been completed a few days ago."
When Lu Jue heard this, the two sword eyebrows on his brows eased slightly, and he began to think about something else in his heart.
This fortification drawing is an accident that he got from Feng Yewu, although he doesn't know where Feng Yewu got it, but after reading it, Lu Jue, a layman, felt that it was extremely exquisite, so he arranged for someone to send it to Hangu Pass as soon as possible.
Hangu Pass, which itself is known as the north and south gates, can basically be reduced to nothingness with the fortifications provided by Shangfeng Yewu.
"Could it be that the fortification plan has been tampered with? Or is there a ghost in the camp of the Northern Expedition? ”
Xiao Han thought about it on the side, although he didn't know what Lu Jue's so-called fortifications were, but in an inexplicable trust, Xiao Han felt that the fortifications that Lu Jue felt could have their own unique place.
So he opened his mouth to speculate on other reasons.
Fan Di heard Xiao Han's words, raised his head slightly, just met Xiao Han's gaze, his expression showed a trace of sadness, and said softly: "The forward battalion is very important, I don't dare to arrange outsiders, so I specially let Fan Kai lead the forward battalion to do it." ”
When Xiao Han heard that it was Fan Kai who Fan Di sent to the front line, his face suddenly became extremely bad.
didn't say much, but sighed helplessly.
After all, Xiao Han and Fan Di are old friends, and naturally they know that Fan Kai is Fan Di's only son.
Thinking of Fan Di, who has always been proud of his son on weekdays, he learned of the pain of losing his son at this moment, and he had to endure the report of the military situation.
Xiao Han also fell into silence for a while.
After Lu Jue heard Fan Di's explanation, he was confused and did not react to the relationship between the two.
Xiao Han saw Lu Jue's puzzled face, so he explained softly:
"Fan Kai is the son of Fan Di, and he is also quite stable in life."
Lu Jue woke up at this time, and his heart was slightly broken from the possibility that Xiao Han had just spoken.
Since he is the son of Fan Di, it is naturally impossible to do the traitorous thing, so what is the problem?
... ...
Kyoto's Minami-chi has long been a place where refugees of all kinds roam and sell illegal traffic.
However, after Feng Yewu ascended the throne, after one or two rectifications, now except for some illegal salt sales and pirated banned books, the rest of the things are also much less.
The current South Lane, after the arrival of refugees from northern Xinjiang, has also completely changed its appearance.
What was a slum in itself is now a refugee camp entirely.
A huge city has a prosperous upper class, and there must also be a place for the lower class people to eat, drink and have fun, otherwise under the unscrupulous oppression of those upper class rulers, these people at the bottom would have exploded long ago.
As a result, the place of Nanxiang has slowly become the acquiescence of the whole Kyoto, the center of the center.
And the Red Lotus Sect came into being in this group of people.
Everyone here knows about the daimyo of the Red Lotus Sect, from the scrawny old begging old man to the babbling child who climbs the dirt.
At this moment, Wei Nanqi, Qiao Zhuang became a bookseller who sold pirated and forbidden books, and behind him, followed closely by the noisy Gu Naluo.
Gu Naluo followed behind Wei Nanqi and wrapped a face towel around his face, but it was a pity.
Even though Gu Naro was wearing a linen patch and deliberately smeared a lot of dirt on her clothes, she still couldn't hide the smart aura on her body.
The gray veil tightly covered the area below Gunaro's nose, but the big eyes still flickered, like stars that had fallen into the mortal dust, and they were extremely dazzling.
"This... How is this how it looks here? ”
Gu Naro's brows furrowed slightly, and there was a hint of surprise and disgust in his tone.
