On the second day of February, the dragon raises its head, which is also called the Spring Ploughing Festival and the Agricultural Festival.

The local officials and gentry have held dragon worship and prayer for rain and release life in order to seek an auspicious harvest in the year.

On the land of Jingxiang, the people began their new year's cultivation on the land after the war.

Hou Xuanyan went to Jingxiang, his mood was even heavier than when he first came, and the situation was changing rapidly. Just because the Sichuan general Gu loved his hometown in Chengdu, he disobeyed Hou Xuanyan's order and forcibly attacked Chengdu. Pulling a hair and moving the whole body, causing the good situation to almost go down the drain.

After seeing the dawn, people are strangled alive, and they are even more tired than when they struggled.

After passing through Yuezhou Mansion, Hou Xuanyan did not enter Baling, but only instructed Zheng Zunqian and Gu Yanwu, who came to greet them, to let them guard Huguang. The three fierce beasts in the Dabie Mountain, licking their fangs and claws, will come out to hurt people at any time. Especially now that there are changes in the middle of the river and the rear is unstable, we must be careful that these three people take advantage of the fire to rob.

The farther southwest he went, the more rugged the road became, and Hou Xuanyan's speed slowed down. Looking at the tired appearance of the soldiers, Hou Xuanyan couldn't help but secretly wipe his sweat, if it weren't for Zhang Huangyan's reminder, he came to the southwest with tens of thousands of Zhejiang soldiers, and before he met the enemy, his strength would be reduced by half. However, the good news is that whether it is the Manchurian soldiers of the Zhenghongqi of Aobai or the Liaodong soldiers of Wu Sangui, it is difficult to exert all their strength in this kind of place.

Finally, after a half-month-long trek, Hou Xuanyan finally came to Chongqing Mansion.

Nanping Pass, which has not yet been captured by the Qing army, is stationed here at this time Xia Wanchun's men and horses. Xia Wanchun is arranging the grain road, the daily consumption of the 130,000 army is amazing, the road in Shuzhong Mountain is rugged and difficult, and the supply of grain and grass is very problematic.

A soldier walked over, clenched his fists and said, "General, Yue Guogong has arrived at the pass, do you want to greet the general in person?" ”

Xia Wanchun had long expected Hou Xuanyan to arrive these days, but he didn't expect to come three or four days earlier than he thought, which shows that Hou Xuanyan was anxious.

Zhang Yao, the envoy of Guizhou, Zeng Yi, the political envoy of Bu, and Chen Ruizheng, the commander of the envoy, came to Nanpingguan and led a hastily organized army to help in the war. The three of them knew that Chongqing had rugged mountain roads, but Guizhou was the most convenient. No matter which way the men and horses attacked, Guizhou's lax armament was powerless to resist, so he pinned his hopes on Hou Xuanyan's army. Hearing this, Zhang Yao said: "Since the Duke of the Kingdom has arrived, we should go together to greet him." ”

Xia Wanchun nodded and led people to the pass.

Hou Xuanyan stood on his horse, his waist straight, looked at the people who came to greet him, pointed to the horsewhip and asked, "How is it, have you ever fought with the Qing soldiers?" ”

Xia Wanchun saw that he was thin, his fair face in the past, his stubble was old, and he looked dusty, so he bent down and said, "Commander, let's talk about it in the big tent." ”

Hou Xuanyan jumped off the horse, and Zhang Yao and the three stepped forward and said, "Xiaguan has seen Yue Guogong." ”

As Hou Xuanyan walked, he listened to Xia Wanchun introduce the three of them to him. Hou Xuanyan was very satisfied, and praised: "As a shepherd in Guizhou, you know the truth of cold lips and teeth, not bad." ”

Zhang Yao smiled bitterly: "It's a pity that our soldiers and horses in Guizhou are weak, so we can't help much." ”

Hou Xuanyan stood up, shook his finger and said, "Can't help?" That's not going to work. Guizhou is located in the southwest, and has never experienced the invasion of the Manchus, and the thieves have never entered. After being comfortable for so long, it's time to do something. It is useless for you to stay on the front line, and I will also divide troops to protect you, so it is better to go back to Guizhou, requisition the people, and ensure that our grain and grass can be transported from Huguang to the front line in Chongqing. ”

When Zhang Yao heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he said: "If we can do something for the front line, we will be relieved." Hou Xuanyan acted resolutely, and then said: "Okay, without further ado, you can leave now." ”

Zhang Yao and the three of them were obviously stunned, with embarrassment, after all, this was the first time they had met. Hou Xuanyan patted him on the shoulder and grinned: "Three adults, the military situation is urgent, so I won't talk to you deeply this time." When the battle is over, I invite you to Chongqing Mansion and drink Luzhou wine together. ”

The three giants of Guizhou had no choice but to leave in a hurry, and ordered their subordinates to pack their luggage and immediately set off to rush back to Guizhou to preside over the transportation of the baggage in the rear.

Xia Wanchun has been staying by Hou Xuanyan's side, and has learned his habits, and the layout in the big tent is basically the same as that of Hou Xuanyan, and a sand table in the middle occupies a large space.

Hou Xuanyan looked up, and gasped, this is a mountain or a mountain

Xia Wanchun looked at his face, knew his thoughts, and said with a wry smile: "The land of Sichuan and Shu is worthy of its reputation, fortunately, our Hunan soldiers are good at rock climbing. ”

Hou Xuanyan suddenly remembered something and asked: "Xiangxi native soldiers, they are very famous, did they bring them this time?" ”

Xia Wanchun knew that when he loved Huguang, he had been on the front line of Jingxiang, and he was not very familiar with the Hunan soldier system, and explained: "The native soldiers of the two Tusi of Yongshun and Baojing in Xiangxi brought 5,000 native soldiers this time. ”

These Xiangxi native soldiers are as famous as the Guangxi wolf soldiers, especially good at fighting in the mountains, and their nature is similar to Qin Liangyu's white pole soldiers, and they are all private soldiers belonging to Tusi.

"I hate Zhai Shiyun, a fool, who thinks he is loyal and righteous, and sets fire to his backyard before the external worries are settled. If our southern provinces work together, the Guangxi wolf soldiers are also a good helper. It's good now, my own people are hot, and they cheapen Wu Sangui and Ao Bai, the two bastards. ”

Xia Wanchun frowned inadvertently, but still said: "After Zhai Shiyun was arrested, he was imprisoned in the Bronze Mansion. ”

Hou Xuanyan thought about it in his heart, and knew Xia Wanchun's intentions, they were all literati, and they may have some "cherishing talents" with each other. People are like this, and Hou Xuanyan has no intention of letting everyone be like him and be able to read through history. In the current environment, if we cannot examine this period of history from a broad perspective and from God's perspective, it is impossible to tell whether the merits are right or wrong.

Hou Xuanyan patted Xia Wanchun on the shoulder and said, "Brother Duan, your sister followed my third uncle, and she escaped with her life, and now she is in my house." After the battle, I'll take you back to him. ”

Although Xia Wanchun had known about this for a long time, he still smiled when he heard Hou Xuan's speech. It's just that Hou Xuan's speech is over, and he doesn't have any hope at all.

From the day he entered Jingxiang, the commander of the little marquis promised too much what would happen after the battle, and as a result, 70,000 Zhejiang soldiers are still holding on to Huguang and fighting around Huguang, and the commander has not been able to fulfill his promise and take everyone home.

This battle, in the hearts of all soldiers, is still far away.

Since the great victory in the Battle of Jingxiang, a place outside Huguang has not been able to step into a single step, let alone recover. "Build the Northern Expedition, invincible" is a sentence that everyone in the Fengzi Battalion will shout, the Northern Expedition is long, and there is no end in sight
