Chapter 129: Ying Qiong sits in Xiping City
At the end of February in the Chang'an calendar.
There is already the breath of spring, and the weather is gradually sunny and cloudy. The dead branches also vaguely have new green, but the wind in the northwest wilderness is still inferior, still so unruly.
Ying Qiong took the new army of Yangzhou and finally arrived in Xiping City on a sunny afternoon. Chang Dan personally went out of the city to greet him, and he was naturally very happy when reinforcements came from Chang'an.
Under the city of Xiping, Ying Qiong wore dark black cotton clothes, rode a batch of yellow-brown horses made in Yangzhou, and followed closely by Han Chufei, the governor of Yangzhou Prefecture. He was dressed in a blood-red robe, riding on a pure black horse, carrying a golden sword at his waist, and holding his head high. When Chang Dan looked at the two of them, they really had different reactions. I couldn't help but be secretly happy in my heart, this time dealing with the Menghu army. There is hope.
He said unhappily: "Ying Mansion Marshal! It's finally time to wait for you, please, please. ”
Ying Qiong couldn't help but be secretly shocked when he saw Chang Dan being so knowledgeable. I didn't expect Chang Long to have such a son, it seems that in the future, he will become a great weapon. The men said no more, and then went into the city. Han Chufei led the new army of Yangzhou Mansion and set up camp outside Xiping City, and Ying Qiong followed Chang Dan into Xiping City.
Xiping County Government.
Chang Dan and Ying Qiong sat opposite each other.
Chang Dan said: "Ying Fushuai's journey is tiring, and it is really hard work. ”
Ying Qiong smiled slightly and said, "Everywhere is the way it should be, don't be polite." Let's get down to business, I heard that General Li has already fought with the Menghu vanguard, and I don't know what the situation of the enemy army is, can you tell me about it? ”
"The enemy vanguard is 10,000, led by the general Jebu, and General Li leads the army to the battle, outnumbered, and now it is going north, and I don't know what the situation is." Chang Dan worried.
"What are you going to do now?" The hero asked with a slight thought.
Chang Dan looked at Ying Qiong and said, "I always feel that something is wrong, but I still can't figure it out." ”
Hearing this, Ying Qiong lowered his head and thought for a while. said: "Xu is the son is too worried. ”
Chang Dan couldn't help but shake his head and smile after hearing this.
Ying Qiong squinted at Chang Dan and said, "Does Childe mean that our army will not change to meet all changes?" ”
Chang Dan couldn't help but nodded.
"Yes, I can't figure out the enemy's intentions, I can only do this, if you act rashly, I'm afraid there will be a mistake, and this Xiping City is the only way for the Menghu army to attack Jincheng. If they don't go from here, will they have to fly over? ”
Ying Qiong smiled, walked around the ground twice, looked up for a while, looked down for a while, and didn't know what he was thinking.
"But it's too passive to stick to it like this." Ying Qiong said worriedly, the enemy's mobility is too strong, and if you defend it, you can only be blind.
"So, I want to lead the army out and bite the enemy." Chang Dan stood up suddenly.
"Oh?" Ying Qiong was very surprised and looked at Chang Dan in surprise.
Chang Dan expected Ying Qiong to react like this.
"After our army lost Tingzhou and Yunzhou, we can no longer figure out the enemy's movements, so we are very passive, and, at present, Dashi, Menghu, and Xianrong are obviously premeditated together, but we still don't know what Xianrong is doing, and it is they who I am worried about." Chang Dan paced back and forth with anxiety in his tone.
"Okay, just do as Childe says." Ying Qiong nodded, looking at Chang Dan with great appreciation, the young master of Chang'an Mansion who was about the same age as himself.
"For matters in the city, the marshal can ask Vice General Wang, and I will ask him to stay and help." Chang Dan said solemnly.
Ying Qiong's eyes suddenly sharpened.
"That's not necessary, the matter of defending the city, Gongzi can rest assured." It should be a secluded road.
"Hey~ one more person, one more peace of mind......"
"Well, it's all up to Childe."
Chang Dan said that he was decided, so he hurried to the barracks to settle down on the expedition.
Looking at Chang Dan, Ying Qiong's heart was uncertain for a while, this guy is worthy of being Chang Long's son, and he is so cautious and sophisticated.
Han Chufei happened to come in from the gate and ran into Chang Dan, the two said hello and went their own way.
"Marshal, everything is settled." Han Chufei reported.
"Okay, I will also learn from Luo Feng, all the affairs in this army will be handled by you, and there is no need to report to me if there is nothing important." Ying Qiong said softly.
"Marshal Xie trusts!" Han Chufei was excited.
"I can see it, otherwise how dare you behead the Fancheng County Order." Ying Qiong said expressionlessly, walked to the table, poured a cup of tea and drank it.
Han Chufei's eyes moved, his heart was frightened, and he immediately began to sweat on his forehead, it seems that Wei Jin has already sent a message to the marshal, or...... It's those families who have something to do.
"That's right, the family has fallen out in a mess, and they are all presumptuous in front of Ben Shuai's mansion." Ying Qiong slammed the teacup on the table and said angrily.
Han Chufei was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"The marshal is angry, it is not good for the last general...... Han Chufei is also a person who has read books, and he understands the truth that a companion is like a tiger, and he can't understand it anymore, and he didn't admit his mistakes in advance.
"Hmph, I've given enough face, killed a Zhao Hao Qianhu, Sun Xiao and Li Hui, they are not honest!" Ying Qiong's heart is angry, this family is not falling off is the Yangzhou Mansion for many years, if you want to make Yangzhou Mansion reborn, you must be ruthless, the so-called not broken, not standing! If it weren't for the sudden invasion of the Gentiles this time......
"Marshal, Xuanzhou still has 50,000 soldiers who can fight, if the situation is critical, you can let Lord Wei call it." Han Chufei hurriedly made a move.
"Wei Jin has already transferred troops." Ying Qiong sighed.
"That's good, that's good." Han Chufei was glad that the situation was not out of control, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
"But...... The Shence army of Luoyang Mansion has arrived in the Wuhu area again......" Ying Qiong remembered the letter Wei Jin sent him, and couldn't help but have a headache.
"What?! They! Han Chufei was shocked.
"Don't underestimate the people under Luo Feng. No, especially that Yan Beifeng. Ying Qiong thought about the picture when he first saw him, and there was only one sentence in his heart, Shibei three days.
"That's it, I don't want to come to Luofeng to do anything to us at this time, but we must solve the family's problems as soon as possible, otherwise Yangzhou will not be peaceful." Ying Qiong gritted his teeth and said angrily.
"Understood, when I go back this time, the last general will definitely solve this problem for the marshal." Han Chufei was very ashamed, especially when he mentioned the matter of Fanzhou, the county order he killed by mistake often appeared in his dreams.
"Alright, I'm going to take a break." Ying Qiong stood up and said.
"The last will be retired."
……
Xiping City Ganzhou Battalion Barracks.
"Young master, even if the last general begs you." Vice General Wang looked pitiful and begged Chang Dan on the side.
Chang Dan was also very helpless when he saw Vice General Wang like this.
"Okay, okay, it's not that I won't take you, what should I do if I leave this Xiping City? Well? Chang Dan coaxed Vice General Wang like a child.
"Isn't there still a Yangzhou army?" Vice Admiral Wang pouted and said.
"Is this Xiping City from Chang'an Mansion or Yangzhou Mansion?"
"Naturally, ours."
"Then tell me, how can there be a reason for the guest to come but the host is not there." Chang Dan spread his hands and said to Vice General Wang.
Vice General Wang suddenly had nothing to say, and he was dejected for a while.
"Okay, okay, it's a great achievement for you to take care of our Xiping City!" Chang Dan patted Vice General Wang's shoulder and solemnly admonished.
"The last general obeys!" Although he was not happy, but the military order could not be violated, he still saluted happily.
……
In the afternoon of the same day, all units of the Ganzhou battalion received a military order to cook food on the fifth watch tomorrow and set off at dawn.
So the soldiers got busy again.
……
It is rare for the clouds to open and see the moon, Chang Dan got up in his clothes and stood at the mouth of the tent, the night wind invaded, and the cold was to the bone.
The hazy moon is the most disturbing.
I want to experience all the way, from leaving home to Mowen Valley to Luoyang City and then to Jinghua Lake...... Unconsciously, I went all the way back to this land.
"Ahem, Marshal, why don't you rest." Vice Admiral Wang walked over from the side.
"Oh, I can't sleep." Chang Dan pulled his clothes and said.
"Do you want to Chang'an?" Vice Admiral Wang stood beside him, looked up at the moon in the sky, and said faintly.
"Sort of." Chang Dan does not deny that indeed, indeed, if he was a few years ago, he should have wandered in Chang'an City at this time, walked through the eighth street and 64th road, walked around the 12th floor of Jiufang, like in the poem of the immortals, drunk with the rivers and lakes, happy life. It's just that......
"When I was as old as the young master, I had been in the army for an unknown number of years......," Vice Admiral Wang muttered to himself, the water droplets on his armor were shining, his dark face was full of wrinkles, his eyebrows were bearded, and his nose was straight, and he looked very decent.
Chang Dan looked at the general in front of him, did not speak, and listened to him quietly.
"The country is in turmoil, the people are displaced, my father died in Broken Leaf City, my mother took me and my brothers to flee everywhere, unfortunately also died tragically under the knife of the chaotic army, I was fortunate to pick up a life and survived, I was only ten years old at that time, and later, I met the army of General Bai and took me in, since then, I have been in the army, for a while, I don't know how many years......" Vice General Wang's deep voice, the melancholy eyes, obviously wanted to cry but forced to laugh, couldn't help but make Chang Dan's heart sour.
"Speaking of which, the young master grew up in Chang'an since he was a child, and he can still have a place to miss. Unlike me, I don't know much about where my hometown is, and it's already home in the army. Vice General Wang said calmly.
A gust of wind blew, and Chang Dan's heart could no longer be suppressed.
"Country is home." Chang Dan said.
"Hey...... Where else is there ............ The appearance of the country. As soon as Vice General Wang's words came out, he felt that it was not quite right, but after thinking about it, he still finished speaking.
Chang Dan was stunned.
"Isn't that why the general is here today?" Chang Dan turned around and faced Vice General Wang.
"What about the young master? For what? Vice General Wang suddenly smiled and asked, his clear eyes looked at Chang Dan tightly, and at this moment, it seemed that he had forgotten the identities of the two.
This questioning made Chang Dan no longer calm, he avoided the sight of Vice General Wang, looked up at the moon, and had thousands of thoughts in his head, for what? What am I for?
"For what? What am I for? …… For what...... For what. Chang Dan muttered to himself like a demon, turned around slowly, walked into the big tent, and his clothes were blown off, and he didn't notice it.
Vice General Wang didn't care about him, silently picked up his clothes, gently put them on Chang Dan's table, put down the curtain, and retreated.
……
"Chang'an...... A Piece of Moon...... 10,000 households...... The sound of pounding clothes...... Autumn wind...... I can't blow enough ......"
Tears finally jumped out of my eyes.
Running down the face, slipping from the beard, dripping onto the cuirass and condensing into light.
