Under the squeeze of the four-way army of Prince Jiancheng, Qin Wang Shimin, Boling Li Zhongjian and Youzhou Luo Yi, Liu Wuzhou's power has been declining. At this time, it is a grace to send anyone into battle. After winning the battle, he followed the people in front of him to become an official and enter the knighthood. If it is defeated, bah, how can this situation be defeated again? It's better to buy a piece of tofu and crash to death on it yourself!

Cheng Mingzhen was inexplicably smashed by the sudden good luck. He didn't know how the imperial court had suddenly begun to give himself the opportunity to make contributions after having been idle for so long. But it might as well be that he accepted the order in a happy mood. After arranging the defense of the northern part of Shangdang County and the southern part of Taiyuan County, he immediately commanded his troops and horses, and prepared to go on the expedition with the grain and grass given by the imperial court to the front.

After not hearing the sound of horns and drums for a long time, the cuckoo was also itchy. I found a set of gorgeous and sturdy fish scale armor, put it on my body, and prepared to move forward with my husband. Seeing this, Cheng Mingzhen hurriedly pulled her home and discussed in a low voice: "This is not good, it turns out that when we are in the water, you can make any trouble." But now that we have become the Tang Army, I can no longer take the lead in violating military orders. Many pairs of eyes are watching, even if the above is not to blame, the brothers inevitably have thoughts in their hearts? ”

"What a military order. Is there an article in the Tang Dynasty military order that female generals are not allowed to lead the troops? If so, how did Princess Pingyang's women's army count back then? The cuckoo slapped her husband's hand hard and retorted in a low voice.

"It was certainly different then." Cheng Mingzhen smiled and explained to his wife in a low voice, "At that time, the Li family had just started the army, and there were no rules, so no matter how much you tossed, it wouldn't cause too much criticism. It's been three years since Wude, and all the laws and regulations have been perfected. You set out with me as a daughter, didn't you just happen to be a target with the official? Don't mess around, wait for me at home honestly! ”

The cuckoo thought for a while and felt that her husband's words made sense. He stamped his feet and puffed out his mouth and complained, "What's this called?" I don't have the ability to give advice to the emperor, and I stare at women every day to make bullshit articles! If you don't go, you won't go, I'll take a few pro-soldiers out hunting, don't break the rules! ”

"Try to be careful when hunting, too!" Cheng Mingzhen looked at no one around, took his wife's body into his arms, and tightened it gently, "You still need to take care of the affairs at home." My mother is old after all......."

"It's like I don't care!" The cuckoo struggled for a moment, then drew a small circle on her husband's chest with her fingers, "You can go with confidence." When fighting, don't rush too far ahead. I didn't expect you to be crowned a prince of the country. Let's ......"

"Hmm!" Cheng Mingzhen smiled and lowered his head.

The cuckoo raised his head, and his lips echoed tactfully. Wen Cun for a while, then opened his eyes again, and whispered: "Also, on both sides of the crown prince and the king of Qin, if you can't mix with it, don't follow it." ”

"I know, Ermao and I have already figured out a way to get out!" Cheng Mingzhen nodded in agreement. He tightened his arms again, let go, and turned to go out.

The cuckoo chased a few steps and went out of the door, chasing her husband for a few steps like an ordinary wife, smoothing out the folds on the outside of the brocade robe, straightening the clothes, and then silently getting out of the way.

The core general of the Zhaozhou battalion, who lived nearby, walked out of his house, said goodbye to his wife and children, gathered into a group, and slowly moved towards the large campus outside the city. The women greeted each other and gathered into another group, slowly following the men's procession. After nearly two years of peace, the wind and frost on their faces have disappeared, and one by one they have red lips and white teeth, and they are more and more beautiful. Only the smile that always hung on his face and did not change in the slightest until the army disappeared into the sky, made it clear that they were not ordinary fat fans. Wildflowers that have experienced the wind and rain are always more gorgeous when they bloom.

When he came to the front line in Fenyang, Cheng Mingzhen first took a batch of grain to the camp of King Qin. Li Shimin didn't figure out why, his father suddenly had a blue eye for a governor of Zhaozhou who only had more than 5,000 soldiers and horses, but out of the habit of Corporal Lixian, he still took the initiative to welcome him out of the door.

After the two sides finished delivering the military grain, Li Shimin stepped forward, took Cheng Mingzhen's hand, and said with a smile: "I have heard the general's name for a long time, and I have never had a chance to get together. Now that we are here today, why don't you bring your brothers into my camp to rest? When the war starts another day, wouldn't it be nice for you and me to gallop together? ”

"King Qin is very loving, and the last general is grateful!" Long before coming to the front line, Cheng Mingzhen had already prepared for the possible move of King Qin, arched his hand, and responded with a smile, "It's just that there is still half of the military rations, and the last general must personally escort it to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." If His Royal Highness the King of Qin does not dislike the low martial arts of the last general, and returns from the prince another day, he is willing to be a pawn in front of the horse! ”

"Long live the transfer of us to the front, and it is not clear which Highness is under the command. If the King of Qin looks up to my brother, why don't you ask the Jingshi for a holy decree to put me under the command of the King of Qin? Wang Ermao arched his hand and smiled to Cheng Mingzhen.

Over the years, he has practiced martial arts day by day, and his body has become extremely strong. When Li Shimin saw him for the first time, he immediately had the intention of soliciting in his heart, smiled, and said in a low voice: "Could this be General Wang Qiang, who once led five hundred strong men to fight against Wei Wensheng and five thousand iron horses?" Sure enough, he was born mighty. The decisive battle will be within these two days, and it will definitely be too late to write a recital and ask the court for instructions. It is better for the two generals to send the grain and grass to the prince brother first, and if there is no place in his camp to arrange the brothers, the two generals will turn back to me!" How is it? ”

This proposal is very considerate. Cheng Mingzhen had no reason to refuse, smiled and thanked him. The two brothers turned around and walked out of the camp, and when they walked far away, they also saw Qin ** Ma standing at the gate of the camp, waving at everyone frequently.

"Let's go back!" Seeing that the soldiers of the Zhaozhou battalion had disappeared between heaven and earth, Wuji, the eldest grandson who had been following King Qin, lowered his head and suggested in a small voice, "These two may not be able to be used by His Highness. Don't think much about it! ”

"Hmm!" Li Shimin, the king of Qin, responded with a smile, "It is said that the crown prince brother also tried to recruit the two under his command back then, but the result was unsuccessful!" However, Wu Tianxi, Xiong Kuohai and others can also be called heroes in the world! ”

"According to Luo Shixin, Wu Tianxi once told him when he was drunk that Cheng Mingzhen's martial arts are actually not under Wu Tianxi!" Guarding Li Shimin's side was his confidant Qin Qiong, who listened to King Qin and his eldest grandson Wuji commenting on the heroes in the army, and couldn't help but interject in a low voice.

"That's a real rarity!" The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and sighed, "Brave and strategic, both civil and military." If he meets Brother Shubao in front of the two armies, I don't know how many moves he can take? ”

"Ten years back, he's not as good as me. In another twenty years, I will definitely be inferior to him! Qin Qiong smiled and shook her head in reply. He is almost fifty years old this year, and he has long passed the age of competitiveness. Therefore, although the words of the eldest grandson Wuji have a strong sense of provocation, they also sound like a breeze.

Since Qin Qiong was brought under the account, Li Shimin has been in and out to take him with him. Most of the reason why he dared to take the lead in the front of the two armies and capture the flag was because he believed that Qin Qiong's skills would definitely protect him. At this moment, seeing that Qin Qiong admired Cheng Mingzhen's skills very much, the love for talent in his heart became hotter, he thought about it, and said with a smile, "When it comes to attainments in martial arts, in the whole world, I'm afraid there are few people who are from the right side of Brother Shubao." Cheng Mingzhen can get a praise from his uncle and brother, and he can be regarded as a genius. How about General Wang next to him? Back then in Wagangzhai, did Brother Shubao call him? ”

At that time, he was still inexperienced, and his martial arts had not yet been finalized. According to the observation of the last general, his martial arts should have been realized on the battlefield by himself, without the guidance of a famous teacher. The only place where he is good is in a brave word! Qin Qiong thought about it and said thoughtfully.

"One general is desperate, and thousands of troops are evasive!" Li Shimin smiled and sighed, "With Li Mi's eyes, it was really strange that he didn't want to try to leave it behind!" ”

"Li Mi once tested General Wang's attitude with gold, silver, beauties, and jewelry." Speaking of the past, Qin Shubao was also very emotional, "But General Wang said that he was born poor, and all he wants is to live like a person." When Li Mi heard this, he had no choice but to give up! ”

"Live like a human being?" Li Shimin laughed loudly, "The world still has this as its will!" Interesting, Lone is getting more and more interested in the brothers. There are so many talents in the world. Even if you can't recruit them as a heart, you can invite them as friends! It's not too fast to talk about wine! ”

"Your Highness has such a heart, it is a blessing for our generals!" Qin Qiong bowed down and said very sincerely.

"I remember someone told me that how big a person's heart is, how big the world outside is!" Li Shimin stood up straight and accepted Qin Qiong's worship. "I didn't understand it very well back then, but now, the more I think about it, the more I feel it. Let's go, go back to camp. Let's discuss and make room for them to show their skills on the battlefield! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji nodded lightly and followed Li Shimin back to the Chinese army. is constantly calculating how to bring Cheng and Wang under his father-in-law as he wishes. Before he could plan well, the soldiers sent out to spy on him came back to report that the Zhaozhou battalion had returned from sending grain from the prince, and he did not accept the good intentions of His Royal Highness the King of Qin, but left a camp alone and went to Niutou Mountain in the northeast of Fenyang City.

"Northeast, isn't that a hilly area? Could it be that the crown prince gave him a face-to-face lesson," the eldest grandson Wuji paused, frowning and guessing. "But what effect can the garrison have in Niutou Mountain. It was so far away from the main battlefield that the two armies could not intervene when they were fighting. And even if Liu Wuzhou is defeated in the north, he doesn't necessarily have to take that road......."

In the order of the imperial court, it was not clearly stated who Cheng Mingzhen was assigned to. Therefore, it is not a mistake to stand alone as a camp. After planning for a long time, the first strategist of the Qin Palace's Mansion sighed and said in a low voice: "What an old and spicy vision, if his plan succeeds, Liu Wuzhou may not even have a chance to return to Mayi." Anyway, I'll go and talk to His Highness, send him a favor, and fulfill his intention to make meritorious contributions! ”
