Chapter 723: The British public is happy
Zhang Mao led the vanguard to ride all the way, waiting for the army to reach Henan, just rested, and needed to wait for the scout's return before continuing to go south.
Zhang Mao came from a family of military attachΓ©s, although the current situation is extremely urgent, but he is still meticulous, he does not dare to slack off, and he never dares to be greedy for merit.
When he came to the Great Tent, he took off his garments and called all the generals to the Great Tent.
Zhang Mao looked tired, but his eyes were fixed on Yutu, and he already had the worst plan in his heart.
If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is killed, then, His Majesty is bound to be angry, at this time, it will definitely not be a decisive battle in Anqing, after all, it will never be allowed, and when King Ning's sailors go down the river and seize Anqing, the original Anqing decisive battle scheduled by Zhang Mao will fail, then, it is bound to attack Nanchang urgently, once this is the case, I am afraid that the loss of the imperial court is not small.
But at this time, a scout outside quickly came in: "Grandpa, there is a Pegasus from Nanchang on the road, and he was robbed." β
"From Nanchang?" Zhang Mao was stunned.
He looked at the person who came, and said in his heart, could it be that King Ning sent someone to provoke, or that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had news?
Even...... It may not be possible, King Ning has rebelled?
This battle is very important to Zhang Mao.
He has a prominent family background, and he hopes to continue the glory of the Zhang family by himself.
Zhang Mao stepped forward: "What about people? β
A few of the soldiers escorted one of them in.
The man was evidently beaten, and muttered, "I am an officer of the courier shop, and you must not do this ......to me."
The other generals raised their heads one after another and looked at the people who came.
Zhang Mao said sharply: "Who are you, from Nanchang?" What's the news? β
"This is a four-hundred-mile expedited, it is sent to the General Administration, ordinary people, it is not allowed to open it." This errand servant said.
"Fuck you, do you know who Lao Tzu is?" Zhang Mao was anxious.
The war situation is like fire, where can I take care of a lot: "Come here, bring his urgent report." β
A few of his own soldiers stepped forward, a few of them held down the poor officer, and someone snatched the fire-sealed report and sent it to Zhang Mao.
Zhang Mao sat down and snorted coldly: "Lao Tzu is the British Duke Zhang Mao, who is ordered to ask Zhu Chenhao, the war is urgent, who is verbose with you?" β
As he spoke, he glanced at the other generals, and then tore off the wax seal of the emergency report and took it out.
This look...... The eyeballs are a little straight.
King Ning was ambushed.
Break the city in an instant.
The king of Shening and his son are the hereditary thousand households Zhang Yuanxi.
"Who is Jang Won-seok?" Zhang Mao suddenly roared.
Generals, you look at me, I look at you, I don't recognize you.
The first to climb Nanchang City, Fang Jifan......
Square...... Square...... Fang Jifan......
He...... Got to the city first......
Burst......
I don't know if it was the blood surging up, or if there was suddenly an inexplicable breath blocking his throat, Zhang Mao took a deep breath, and suddenly a mouthful of old blood spurted out.
The generals panicked: "Grandpa, grandpa......"
"What's wrong? Grandpa, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, it's a big deal, the rebels have taken Anqing, but Anqing is just a small place, although it is an important place, but Grandpa, you have to take care. β
"King Ning's dog thief, the destruction is only in the last day, now His Majesty is personally conscripted, 100,000 troops, within half a year, it is bound to break through Nanchang, don't worry."
ββ¦β¦β
The generals only thought that there must be extremely bad news, no matter how bad it was, there would be no rebels to attack Anqing in the future, and it would be even worse to take Anqing.
Zhang Mao's hands trembled.
He kept looking.
King Ning and King Shanggao died, and the rest were surrendered...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, personally sitting in Nanchang, Nanchang Mansion up and down, stable as ever, now bound by the King of Ning Ninety-seven people, waiting for His Majesty to dispose of.
Zhang Mao's face turned pale.
Nanchang...... That's it......
The old man is here...... Do what?
There are no thieves in the world!
Zhang Mao was about to cry.
There are no thieves in the world, what use do you want me?
Poor me Zhang Mao, five years old squatting horse step, seven years old to learn bow horses, nine years old to read military books, thirteen years old into the military camp to observe and study, twenty years old, Fang Xiaocheng, with the uncles to patrol the border town, twenty-three years old, get a gold belt, thirty years old, the governor of the five armies of the Governor's Mansion, so far, but it has been twenty years, twenty years, not even a chicken has been killed.
God, give me a thief.
Even if it's a cat or a dog.
His mouth continued to sweeten, and another mouthful of blood spurted out.
How could such a rebellion be quelled with just a few people?
I don't believe it, I don't believe it!
This must be King Ning's conspiracy.
But......
Zhang Mao's eyes flashed with tears.
He can't help but believe it, above, it is written by His Royal Highness the Prince, and the prince's dog-like words, he remembers it deeply.
Twenty years, twenty years of waiting......
"Grandpa." When the generals saw this, their faces were already as pale as earth, and they bowed down one after another: "Grandpa's Day mourning, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood......"
Zhang Mao raised his eyes: "There is no firewood." β
"What?" Everyone looked at the grief-stricken Zhang Mao.
Zhang Mao took a deep breath: "King Ning...... Dead. Rebellion...... Pacified. β
When the generals heard this, they were first happy.
These Qiu Ba of the cavalry battalion are good in Beijing, who wants to go to war, the war is so terrible, how safe it is to stay in Beijing.
This rebellion has been quelled, this dare is good, but how did it be quelled?
Everyone looked at Zhang Mao again, but saw tears flowing out of Zhang Mao's eyes.
It's a disillusionment, it's all empty.
Everyone chuckled in their hearts: "Grandpa, don't laugh, what's going on." β
"It's all fucking it." Zhang Mao said sharply: "The rebellion has been put down, you ...... You can go home, it's the New Year, go back to accompany your mother-in-law, and the children, and have a good time. β
"Grandpa, don't laugh, if the rebellion is quelled, why is Grandpa like this, something must have happened, and please tell Grandpa the truth." Everyone refused to believe it, the rebellion was quelled, and the whole world celebrated, yes, I just went home for the New Year, what are you crying about, grandpa.
Zhang Mao was silent for a long time.
It seems to be brewing emotions.
His old face hesitated for a long time, and then he grinned, and finally showed a smile: "Haha, haha!" β
Everyone still looked at Zhang Mao strangely.
A little off.
Zhang Mao burst into tears and laughed a few more times: "This is ...... Crying with joy, okay, the order will go down, the army will be stationed, wait here, wait, tomorrow, there is no need to drive south, call a few people, and go north with the old man overnight, the old man ...... I want to go to the Chinese army and meet Your Majesty. β
He stood up.
I tried to restrain the painful feeling in my heart.
I deserve to be happy.
How beautiful life is, I have a hereditary title, and I have no disasters and diseases for a lifetime, this is the day that many people yearn for.
I will also sacrifice, accompany the ancestors and ancestors, and communicate with their hearts, the ancestors and ancestors are in the sky, and they look at my Lao Zhang every day, which ...... What's so bad.
It's a perfect life.
He thought so in his heart, and deep in his heart, there was a tingling sensation.
When the army heard this, they began to rejoice.
Zhang Mao did not hesitate, and immediately took a few personal soldiers and rushed to Pegasus overnight.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Chinese Army.
In the big tent, the lights were on.
But Your Majesty, you are already asleep.
It's almost the New Year, and it's cold in winter.
But Xiao Jing didn't go to sleep, he had to be on duty here for the night, His Majesty has been in a bad mood recently, there can be no one at night, and the other eunuchs, Xiao Jing is not at ease, the current eunuchs, it is really not as good as the generation, one by one, they know how to hide and play leaf cards secretly, or talk about right and wrong behind their backs, all of them are lazy and lazy.
Xiao Jing was wearing a big fashion, with a beam crown on his head, and under the big fashion, there was a big red flying fish suit with a round neck, here, there was a layer of jacket and sweater, but even so, the snow outside the big tent was flying, Xiao Jing was still shivering, with white breath in his mouth, his hands in his sleeves, curled up, and he was afraid that his toes would be frozen, so he paced back and forth outside the account.
Ouyang Zhi was in the small tent not far away, he went to rest for a while, and in the second half of the night, he wore a big fashion, a hand like a pig's elbow, hidden under the big sleeve, Ouyang Zhi stepped forward and said, "Grandpa Xiao, you go and rest, the students are here, stay for a while." β
Xiao Jing was sleepy, his body was arched like a shrimp, and he glanced at Ouyang Zhi: "That's it, it's only these two hours, Ouyang Shi's hand is injured, it's better to sleep a little longer, we are used to it, I think at the beginning, Your Majesty often stayed up late to review and review, and we were all serving." β
Ouyang Zhi said: "I have to march tomorrow, I have slept for a while." β
Xiao Jing was silent.
Although the emperor and the cabinet officials were full of praise for Ouyang Zhi. Although this Ouyang Zhi is Fang Jifan's protΓ©gΓ©.
To be honest, Xiao Jing doesn't want to see the other party's successor, and he insults himself at every turn.
But...... Looking at the honest and honest Ouyang Zhi, Xiao Jing sighed.
In fact...... No matter who anyone, even if they are despicable and shameless, they are actually willing to deal with honest and honest people, this person...... It's too real, it's too much, although I feel a little silly, but it's also admirable.
Xiao Jing couldn't help but sigh: "Fang Jifan's people are not very good, and the protΓ©gΓ©s who can be accepted ......"
Shaking his head: "I'm sorry for you, remember, if Your Majesty said something in a dream, don't go in, be careful to wake him up, Your Majesty can't sleep well at night, especially these days." Also, there is a warm pot in the big tent, and this charcoal fire will be extinguished after about another hour, and after half an hour, you will go in and change it. If Your Majesty gets up at night, you will cough twice, which means that Your Majesty is awake, and in the small tent next door, there has been a pair of warm tea, you serve it, you don't have to try the cold and heat, the tea has been slightly warm, just right. β
Ouyang Zhi bowed: "I wrote it down." β
Xiao Jing said again: "If Your Majesty screams at the little beast in the middle of the night, don't worry about it, Your Majesty is angry with himself, you go straight in, but it will make Your Majesty feel uncomfortable, and he has to calm down." β
"Yes." Ouyang Zhi nodded again.
After Xiao Jing finished explaining, he always felt that he was still a little uneasy, but he didn't know what else to explain, so he simply smiled bitterly, and was about to leave, but in the dark, someone came quickly: "Is Your Majesty asleep?" The British public Zhang Mao has something important to see. β
British ...... In this time of blindness in the dark light...... Here it comes......
