Chapter 438: Ask God to Ask Ghosts
"That's what the general ordered?" Xuan Shaoning looked at Pei Zhenghao with some puzzlement, several of them are now in Qingzhou City, all the middle-level generals of this battle are present, in the face of Pei Zhenghao's order, Xuan Shaoning is the first to ask questions.
Pei Zhenghao looked at everyone present, and finally fixed his eyes on Xuan Shaoning, and explained seriously: "This is the general's military order, I have the general's manuscript here, you can take it for inspection." From Mobei to Duzhou, we have taken half of the cities of the sixteen states of the Central Plains and formed an isolated defense line to completely trap the army of the Tang Dynasty in the border of Daliang, the general believes that under this situation, the Tang Dynasty will definitely focus on two sides, one is to attack our outer defense line; The second is to force the imperial city inside. ”
"The general's analysis is reasonable, and the general will definitely obey it!" It was Yan Ruzhi who spoke, and he first expressed his agreement with the military order. "After several major wars, our military strength has been seriously damaged, and the plan for today is to restore combat effectiveness and resist at the same time. We already have the support of Annan's army on this front, and we still make replenishing our military strength our first priority. ”
"What was said as scheduled was considered by the general, so an order was sent overnight asking us to strictly defend and do a good job of arming the battle line." Pei Zhenghao nodded towards Yan as scheduled.
"The last general is a soldier, so naturally he has to obey military orders, but the last general still has something unclear about, and I want to consult Commander Pei." Xuan Shaoning said: "If the end of the army captured by Wu Yu intends to attack the national capital in a desperate way, then ........"
"Even if the capital of my Great Liang Kingdom is not impregnable, but with the Guangyuan Army and the Divine Killing Sudden Cavalry, it is still not a problem to resist the Yuan Mo Army, which is greatly injured." Shi Gong Zhengyuan interrupted Xuan Shaoning's questioning and gave his own opinion at the same time.
Xuan Shaoning immediately understood Shi Gong Zhengyuan's intentions, so he had to look at the other party with grateful eyes, and finally shut up obediently.
"Well, from now on everything will be carried out according to the general's military orders!" Pei Zhenghao took back the letter that was originally intended to be handed over to Xuan Shaoning, and burned it after everyone left.
On the way back to the barracks, Xuan Shaoning was a little absent-minded, and the doubts in his heart were not eliminated at all. It has been a full five days since the battle of Qingzhou ended, and it will not take so much time to reorganize the army in a special period, the outer defense line has been all together, and Wu Yuhu is already a trapped beast, as long as they take the initiative to attack, the probability of victory is still large. At this time, Xiao Yunqi actually asked everyone to temporarily stop the army, the reason sounded quite reasonable, but Xuan Shaoning just felt that something was wrong.
"What's wrong? You've had too much combat experience over the years, and you can't be idle for a moment, so you're just going to continue to use troops after just a few days of rest. ”
"Zhengyuan, you know that I'm not a reckless soldier, I just feel that the opportunity can't be missed."
"We are still too young, and although we have been in the barracks for many years, we are still far inferior to the generals in terms of battle control, tactical arrangement, and troop arrangement. Well, all we can do in this matter is to obey the military orders as before, and I have one more thing to tell you here. ”
"What's the matter?"
Shi Gong Zhengyuan was not in a hurry to explain, and directly took out a letter and handed it over, "What's the matter, you can see it yourself." With that, he turned around and left.
Xuan Shaoning suddenly felt something the moment he took the letter, and his heart began to beat wildly, he had already realized what the content of the letter would be, and he was not relieved until he opened it and read it quickly. Sure enough, his guess was correct, and his nervousness and joy were justified, because the signature of the letter was rouge.
Rouge, it's been a month since I left you, and it's all because I haven't been able to write you a letter to report your safety for so long, because I haven't done a good enough job to make you worry and be afraid. However, I promise you that as soon as the war is over, I will rush back to Mobei as soon as possible to fulfill my promise to you, Rouge, you must wait for me.
Xuan Shaoning carefully stuffed the letter into his chest, as if Rouge was snuggling up to his shoulder, this feeling of being needed and relied on is really great, it is a strong motivation to continue to be uncompromising on this terrible world, and to continue to follow his own ideas firmly.
Outside the Mobei Shuai tent under the same starry sky, Rouge didn't have the same warm feeling as Xuan Shaoning, she looked anxiously into the Shuai tent, she knew that this was futile, but she couldn't help it.
The lights inside the tent are bright, and the guards outside the tent are heavily guarded, which is normal in wartime, but Rouge has been in the army for a long time, and she still figured out some clues from this subtle change. After observing in the corner for a long time, Rouge had to return to her residence, she really didn't gain much tonight, and the pressure in her heart began to rise.
What Rouge didn't know was that all her actions were watched by another person, and the only task that Yuanxiang came to the barracks was to keep an eye on Rouge, and when she accepted this task at first, she just thought that her young lady was jealous, but as she stayed in the barracks for more and more time, she gradually discovered that this Rouge did have a secret. It was absolutely suspicious that she had been looking outside the tent all night, but that alone was not enough to make Rouge look like it. Yuanxiang also returned to her residence, and she wrote down all the observations she had made over the past few days for the pharmacist to take back to the Bai family.
Xiao Yunqi, who was in the tent, burned a letter, watching the flames quickly devour the letterhead, and his face was also alternating between light and dark under the reflection of the fire. The last remaining corner of the epistle in the world revealed three words before it was engulfed in flames: Xiao Yunyan, this is just a fleeting scene, and all that remains in the blink of an eye is a pile of ashes.
Xiao Yunqi walked back to the periphery of the sand table map and looked at it, the city led by the red line was already under his control, and at a cursory glance, he saw an arc crossing from the north to the south of the Daliang land, like a shield, trapping the troops of the Lower Tang Dynasty in the border of the Great Liang Kingdom, and at the same time isolating the Lower Tang Dynasty and Xiliang from the defense line. At this time, the Jingyi Army not only controlled Mobei, and even Duzhou City had already entered and exited the sea, but also Chen Jiale had made it clear that he supported the Jingyi Army, and Bai Yuting of the Bai family also expressed the support of the Bai family for Xiao Yunqi through Chen Jiale.
This is the most optimistic battle situation in the past three years, it can be said that Xiao Yunqi currently occupies only ten cities, but he already has half of the Great Liang army. Even so, Xiao Yunqi still didn't dare to take a breath, he knew that there were more tough battles to fight in the future, and the generals under him had sacrificed a lot, but the sacrifice was just the beginning, and if he wanted to complete his great cause, he could only rely on the sacrifice of more people to achieve it.
"None of this is what I actively wanted, it was all forced. Mother, you must be able to understand the painstaking efforts of the sons in the spirit of the sky, and there is no way back for the sons to continue gambling in this gamble, and please mother must bless the sons! Xiao Yunqi knelt and kowtowed alone in the tent facing east.
In the Spiritual Hall of the Imperial City of Daliang, on the same night, there was also a person kneeling in front of the shrine and kowtowing, this person was the most powerful person in Daliang, and the real master of Daliang - Emperor Xiao Yunsheng of Liang. Emperor Liang has been coming to the psychic hall for many days to worship, this is the palace where the Liang royal family places the ancestral god card very few people come, generally only on specific sacrificial days will have the emperor come, but these days Emperor Liang will come every day, as for the reason, those palace people who guard the psychic hall are aware.
Since the strange death of the previous Emperor Liang, Daliang has not lived in peace for a day, and even the national capital has twice faced the extraordinary moment of the enemy's attack, which has never appeared in the hundred years since the founding of the Liang. Emperor Liang succeeded to the throne in less than two years, but the crisis of the country is unprecedented, even if Emperor Liang devotes all his energy to political affairs every day, it is useless, and the country's power is still declining.
Only then did he drive away the sailors of the Tang Dynasty, and within a few days, mad ministers appeared in the capital of the country one after another, and the number was increasing; These ministers were originally imprisoned in Dali Temple, but a few days ago they disappeared en masse, leaving only the bodies of the guards of Dali Temple. Just this morning, Emperor Liang received a report of the bloody case in the national capital: the families of those crazy ministers were wiped out overnight, and there was no one left, the first bloody case was Yu Chong's mansion, and then more and more bloody cases appeared in the minister's mansion, and the most annoying thing was that when the bloody case occurred at night, the Jingshi patrol did not even notice the abnormality.
Emperor Liang was exhausted, he could only turn to his ancestors for help, and came to the spiritual hall every day to burn incense and bow down, he wanted to ask for a peace of mind, even if Emperor Liang still didn't believe that these deceased people could help anything.
At the front of the shrine was the former Emperor Liang and Emperor Liang Heng - Xiao Fangxu's magic card, and Xiao Yunsheng saw this magic card as soon as he looked up.
"Father, you shouldn't be happy, right? Even if what the retainers do is unforgivable, you know that among your sons, only the retainer is the most suitable heir to the throne! Xiao Yunsheng held his head high, even though he was still kneeling on the ground. The family and the country have begun to decline in your hands, and the sons and daughters have seen it, which is why the sons are so anxious to succeed to the throne, because the sons are really concerned about the world. Father, open your eyes and see, how many times has Daliang faced crises in the past two years, and which one was not the son who saved the people from fire and water? Father, if you have a grudge in your heart, send it to your son, you were also the ruler of the Liang, and you don't want the Liang to perish in the hands of the son, right? Father, bless your sons! ”
Xiao Yunsheng muttered to himself, and finally leaned down deeply again to kowtow, he thought that he was sincere enough, and everyone should understand his hard work and difficulties, but it backfired. Just when Xiao Yunsheng buried his head, a loud bang came into his ears.
Xiao Yunsheng looked up and saw that Emperor Liang Heng's divine card fell to the position of less than one person in front of him, there was clearly no wind and no other people in this palace, this divine card fell to the ground so suddenly, what else can be explained except for the matter of gods and ghosts?
"Father, don't you plan to forgive your sons, do you? Okay, then Erchen will not bother you again, this country is already Erchen's home country, and it will be the home country of Erchen's descendants in the future, these difficulties Erchen will only deal with, Erchen believes that Daliang will be able to pass smoothly! ”
Xiao Yunsheng got up resolutely, no longer looked at the god card on the ground, strode out of the psychic hall, facing the palace people who bent down on both sides to salute, Xiao Yunsheng ordered: "It is not good to guard the god card, you all go to the criminal department to accept the guilt!" ”
