In October, Yu Wenwen's injuries were basically fine, but there were still some faint scars on his body, especially the arrow wound on his chest, which was like a dot on his chest. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Fortunately, it's not seven points, and then it's lined up like the Big Dipper, then I'll become Ubunjiro, and I can sing 'A Bowl of Shrimp'."

Yu Wenwen said self-deprecatingly, he gently stroked the scars on his body, after a period of cultivation, most of these wounds in the battle have healed, unless it is an extreme situation, it is unlikely to burst.

The carriage stopped, Yu Wenwen straightened his robe and stepped out of the carriage, and there was a lush green in front of him, which was the Mustang Gang in the west of the southern suburbs of Yecheng.

At the eastern end of Yemagang, among the flags of the spirit, many new graves have been added, which is the final destination of the war dead in the northern suburbs of Yiyang, Zhaozhou Prefecture, at the beginning of last month to resist the attack of the Sui army.

Zhang Yu and the other guards carried sacrificial offerings and walked between the tombs, and Zhou Faming and Tian Yilong also prepared things with their entourage to worship the fallen comrades.

Follow Lord Lang to the famous city of Ye Chang in the north to see, and after coming back, you can blow a lot, what the Son of Heaven honor guard, what Fanbang Hu Nu, what Western Regions treasures, everything dissipates with the wind and turns into a piece of loess.

No one thought that this kind of thing would happen, just like sitting at home on weekdays and being smashed by a suddenly broken beam, no one would have imagined that the honor guard of the Son of Heaven parading across their borders would be raided by the enemy.

It is impossible for the remains of the war dead to be transported back to Shannan, thousands of miles away, so they can only be buried outside Yecheng, and the tombstone is engraved with the names and birthdates, and Yuwenwen spends money to hire people from the surrounding villages to take care of these tombs every year.

There is a list of the specific 'amounts' of the bereavement pension, but the Daxingtai side of Shannan Road has to be responsible for the expenditure and distribution, after all, it is still under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and it is impossible for Yecheng to send the bereavement money to Shannan for thousands of miles.

Raising the fire, the Taoist priest who invited him began to recite the words, watching the pieces of paper money turn into ashes, Yuwenwen only sighed that life and death were only a line.

"Envoy, how's the injury?"

Zhou Faming asked, his own injuries were not much, most of them were bruises, and the sprained right arm was not a big deal, just recuperate and breathe, but Yu Wenwen was injured by more than ten wounds, which was much more serious.

"It's okay, if you cut me and I'll cut yours in a war, how can you not be stabbed, but Tian Xiangwei said that he said, where did you get the magic talisman that blocked an arrow? This father has to ask the soldiers of the Hulin Army to ask for one. ”

Tian Yilong smiled and shook his head: "I don't know where Humble Jing went to ask for it, where is so magical, it's just a coincidence." ”

He and Zhou Faming both won the rank of general Xiangwei who was awarded four lives because of their meritorious service, and they were given the rank of lieutenant, of course, they were both civil and military ranks awarded at the same time, and they did not have real positions, but they just said that they had official ranks, which were different from ordinary people.

Whether there is a specific substantive appointment or not, it is naturally arranged by the Daxingtai of Shannan Road, and the imperial court is too lazy to care about it so carefully.

"That's hard to say, my father was almost pierced through the heart by an arrow, Xiyang City has to build a temple at the same time as the expansion, that master can make such a magical talisman, please come and be the host must be prosperous!"

"Didn't the envoy not believe in this?" Zhou Faming was a little strange, Yuwenwen didn't believe in Taoism or Buddhism, and his remarks on weekdays were also slightly ridiculous, and he thought that the other party would not allow Taoist temples and Buddhist temples in Xiyang City.

"There is a place to go when you have nothing to do to burn incense, there are more people who burn incense, and the craftsmen who make incense also have a business, right?" Yu Wenwen's three sentences are inseparable from 'business'.

He doesn't believe in Buddhism and Taoism, but he won't stop the people from believing it, after all, people's hearts must have sustenance.

Praying for the safety of one's own family, the removal of calamities, or the safety of mothers and children, or the blessing of God for one's wealth, are very normal thoughts of the people, and they have been the case throughout the ages.

There are all kinds of men and women who are unfortunate in life and have seen through the red dust, and they must also have a place to become monks, otherwise from time to time they will commit suicide by throwing themselves into the water, or hanging under the tree and shaking around, which will frighten the children.

It is not enough to have a monk temple, but also a Taoist temple, so as to meet the "growing spiritual needs of the people", as for whether to let Buddhist temples and Taoist temples accommodate abandoned orphans, it is still under consideration.

Religion can't prohibit it, but it's not laissez-faire, and the corresponding management has to keep up, serious religious activities can, but that kind of evil can't, for example, let the female benefactor be alone in a room in order to 'practice' the bastard who sends the child, Yuwenwen will definitely cut one if he wants to see one.

The encroachment on fertile land in the name of donations by believers is strictly prohibited, and temples and Taoist temples are never allowed to become a hidden danger that threatens tax revenue.

After the Taoist priest finished his practice, everyone went home, and the convoy was just about to set off, but saw several horses galloping past on the official road, looking at the hurried backs of these people, Yuwen Wen thoughtfully: "Could it be that there is new news in the south?" ’

The envoys of the governors of Hezhou and Wuzhou traveled 300 miles a day to bring the emergency military situation in the south to Yecheng, and then stirred up an uproar.

In the third year of Zhou orthodoxy, the first year of Chen Zhide, on September 30, Emperor Chen Shubao built an altar in the southern suburbs of Jiankang City to worship the generals, and told the world the edict of "Discussing Zhou Zhuwen", and the elite of the Chen army swore more than 100,000 to the Northern Expedition.

The sentinels on the north bank of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River saw the sails on the river covering the sky, and Chen Guo tried his best to gather a large army to cross the river and attack north.

The direction of Chen's attack was the Zhou State's Hezhou and Wuzhou Governor's Offices, which were still Chen's territory more than four years ago, and now Chen's banner is "recovering the homeland."

Since the founding of the country, the national defense situation of Chen has been very bad, since the Southern Dynasties Song, Qi, and Liang have held the land of Jingxiang has been lost, there have been huge loopholes in the defense line in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and there were originally Jiangbei and Huainan that could be used as a feudal screen, but they were all lost four years ago.

The north of the Yangtze River is all enemy territory, and the most upstream Yizhou region is also not a national territory, as long as the victory or defeat is decided between Sui and Zhou, after a few years of recuperation, you can launch a large army down the river, just like the Jin State destroyed Wu in the past.

Once the Yangtze River moat is lost, the qi of the Southern Dynasty will come to an end, so Chen Guo's 'dying struggle' is also expected.

At the beginning of September, the Sui State launched a large-scale attack on the Zhou State, and now the Chen State finally couldn't bear to make a move, which made the Zhou State pay attention to: Although there is no definite news, are the Sui and Chen countries already allied?

"There must be an alliance!"

Yu Wenwen walked back and forth in the room, there were Zhou Faming, Tian Yilong and Zheng Tong, and what they were discussing now was a very important matter.

"But if it's an alliance, you can't keep quiet, right? What kind of system is sneaky. ”

This is Zhou Faming's opinion, but he is not very sure, Zhou attacked Qi several times that year, and Chen agreed to "carve" Qi together, but six years ago, Qi was destroyed, and Chen was played by Zhou once.

When the Qi State fell, the states and counties that Chen Guo easily caught were all spit out by the Zhou State not long after, so this time Chen Guo may not be fooled again and "carve up" the Zhou State with the Sui State.

"Sui and Chen are not aligned, the war in Hezhou has become a fact, and the road between the imperial court and Shannan is becoming more and more difficult, so that the king must make a decision as soon as possible!"

Zheng Tong said that it was Yuwenwen who was worried, after he learned that Chen Jun had invaded the north, what he was most concerned about was what the situation was in the territory of the Hezhou Governor's Mansion, but it turned out to be a mess over there, and the situation was not good.

The Hezhou Governor's Mansion is the hub of Shannan and the Yecheng Imperial Court, and it was easy to get through at the beginning of this year, so he can come to Yecheng with a swagger, in case it is broken, then where can he go back.

"But the official army and the Chen army have already started fighting in Hezhou, even if we leave immediately, I don't know what the situation will be when we arrive in Hezhou. Tian Yilong was struggling.

"What to do? Do you dare to venture with me? Disguise yourself as a merchant and travel through the war zone. ”

"Envoy, don't say whether we are willing or not, will the court let the envoy go?"

The question Zhou Faming said was straight to the point, Yu Wenwen's identity was not ordinary, if he rashly crossed the war-torn Hezhou Governor's Mansion, the imperial court would most likely not release him out of prudent considerations.

For Prime Minister Wei Chi Yuan, if he is released at this time, and then Yuwenwen disappears in the Hezhou territory, he is suspected of killing people with a knife, and the little emperor now attaches great importance to Yuwenwen, and he may not be willing to take risks.

In this way, it is the best choice to continue to stay in Yecheng, maybe the Chen army is attacking the two governors of Hezhou and Wuzhou, and the situation is unfavorable, and after a few months, withdraw the troops, and when Jiangbei is safe, it is also a good choice to let Yuwenwen go back.

"No way, I won't sit still in Yecheng!" Yu Wenwen became emotional, and he didn't care so much about the self-proclaimed "I", he felt that something was wrong, and the war might not end so easily.

The large-scale attack of the Sui army seems to have made up its mind to bite off a piece of meat in Shannan, and Chen Jun's actions are not so much to take advantage of the fire to rob, but more to be planned for a long time.

Yu Wenwen felt that there must be collusion between Sui and Chen, and the reason why there was no news such as the covenant was announced must be something hidden!

Of course, he didn't know what the specific purpose of the two countries was, but based on the starting point of "being a thief with a weak heart", he had an idea and "guessed" the possible situation.

Yang Jian, a cheap father-in-law, wants to enter Xiyang City, Bazhou and rescue his daughter Yang Lihua; Chen Guoyingzhou was harassed by his attack, and there was also a need to attack Bazhou to treat the symptoms and cure the root cause, so it was easy for the two sides to 'reluctantly'!

Yu Wenwen went to Yecheng, there is nothing to hide, Sui and Chen's meticulous work, if you use dim sum, you will know that as the commander of Bazhou's Thorn History and Hulin Army, Yuwenwen is now in Yecheng, and Bazhou's army is just in a leaderless state.

It's nothing just like this, the key is based on the script demand of "saving Princess Yang Lihua of the Great Sui", Yu Wenwen thinks that the cheap father-in-law Yang Jian is not good this time.

If you want to isolate Bazhou and prevent Yang Lihua from being taken away and fleeing elsewhere, then cutting off Hezhou in the east is one of them, and then attacking Jingxiang in Shannan in the west, Bazhou will become a turtle in an urn.

Both public and private, Sui and Chen cooperated and worked together to take Shannan Prefecture, perhaps the Jiangbei Prefecture of Liang and Huangzhou Governor's Mansion belonged to Chen, and the remaining Jingzhou and Anzhou Governor's Mansion belonged to Sui, which was public.

After capturing Bazhou, Yang Lihua 'returned' to her parents, and then Yu Wenwen's family was confiscated as slaves, and her son was castrated and sent to the palace as a eunuch.

As soon as he thought of some kind of unsightly possible scenario, Yu Wenwen felt anxious, whether he thought about being persecuted or not, rushing back to Bazhou was a top priority, his family and army were there, and it was the top priority.

"I must go back! The court will leave if you don't release people! Hezhou can't get through, so enter Dabie Mountain from the north foot and go south! ”

"Envoy, the official road to the south of the northern foot of Dabie Mountain is under the rule of the Yuzhou Governor's Office of the Sui State, and only the northeast foot is the boundary of Hezhou in China, but... But the road is rough and difficult..."Tian Yilong frowned. "The barbarians in that area are very hostile to outsiders, and it is difficult to communicate!"

"It's man-made, go to Hezhou first, if the road is really cut off, then enter Dabie Mountain from the northeast foothills, cross the Shanman territory into the boundary of the Huangzhou Governor's Mansion in Shannan, and negotiate with Shanman, Tian Xiangwei is responsible for it, so decided, do you have any problems?"
