Chapter 328: Courage
Under the leadership of Chen Cao and Zheng Xuan, the 100 prince's guards distributed coins and grains to the inspection soldiers in turn, and the school field was thunderous and imposing.
Unexpectedly, there were unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and the reward materials brought by Liu Chan had not yet been distributed, but when I saw the spring thunder on the horizon and the thunderbolt earthquake, the sky was suddenly cloudy, and the rain was connected into thick lines, and the earth was about to rise.
Jiang Wei was shocked, and before he had time to order the team to disband, he worked with Zhang Bao and Guan Xing to protect Liu Chan tightly and descend to the stage to avoid the rain.
When everyone stood still, the rainstorm suddenly became like practice, and the sky and the earth were already white, and it was only a few breaths before and after.
Liu Chan raised his sleeves to wipe the water droplets on his forehead, and subconsciously looked forward, but he was dumbfounded and stunned at the moment.
It turned out that due to the sudden attack of the rainstorm, the two guards of Yulin and Huben who were originally arrayed on the school field had already scattered in all directions, each looking for a place to shelter from the rain; And in a huge school field, 1,500 soldiers of the New Army stood still with their guns upright, allowing the rain to fall on the mouths of their robes.
In fact, Liu Chan was not the only one who was surprised, Zhang Bao and Guan Xing at this time didn't care about wiping the rain on their bodies, and only stared at the field with solemn faces.
Their gaze swept over the cheeks of the soldiers in the first row of the Forces nouvelles and then to their companions behind them.
As far as the eye could see, 1,500 soldiers of the New Army stood still like rocks, and the raindrops fell on them, stirring up countless splashes and enveloping the entire army in a mist.
Liu Chanda was puzzled, stretched out his hand to summon a leader, and asked: "Now that the wind and rain are so strong, why don't you avoid it?" ”
The leader knew that the person standing in front of him was the son of the king of Hanzhong, and he was the only big man he had seen in his life, so he swallowed a mouthful of saliva at the moment, bowed his body, and replied tremblingly:
"Will ...... The general never gave the order, ...... The villain cannot be disbanded without permission. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a sigh sounded on the side.
It turned out that Guan Xing clapped his hands and sighed: "In the army, rain and snow do not leave the camp, even if it is as strong as the white elite soldiers of the lord, it is no exception." And the new army in front of me, without the order of the main general, is pouring heavy rain, Boyo, you are strict in governing the army, this competition, I am convinced! ”
Zhang Bao also sighed and sighed: "The True Iron Army is also in the world, even if Zhou Yafu is coming again, it will be the same." ”
"Good! Good! Good! Only then did Liu Chan know the reason, and applauded happily.
Jiang Wei didn't have the heart to show off, and after a few words of humility, he hurriedly ordered the disbandment. The officers and men of the new army were relieved, and under the exclamation, they scattered one after another.
It wasn't until the sergeant dispersed that Liu Chan was reluctant to withdraw his gaze and praised: "What I saw and heard today, I am really surprised, I will tell my father the original." ”
Jiang Wei smiled bitterly and hugged his fists in thanks.
Liu Chan asked again: "Such an iron army, can it be famous?" ”
Jiang Wei's eyes flashed, and he bowed down and hugged his fists and said, "I was about to ask His Highness for a name!" ”
Hearing that he wanted to hand over the naming power of such a strong army to himself, Liu Chan only felt that he was very happy, and said in his heart, he must come up with a loud and powerful and far-reaching good name, in short, he would never disappoint the people in front of him!
He squinted his eyes, paced two steps, searched his intestines, racked his brains, suddenly thought of the word, looked back suddenly with joy, and said with interest:
"No, no, no; When it is, it is better to resist it, it is better to call it 'no army', which means that the iron army is there, indomitable, and irresistible! ”
After that, he only took a pair of expectant eyes and stared at Jiang Wei tightly.
"Nothing to do...... There is no ......" Jiang Wen muttered this name in his mouth, and his heart was shocked:
"The Wudang Flying Army is a strong force formed by Zhuge Liang after conquering Nanzhong, using the local barbarian soldiers, and has made great contributions to him and me in the future Northern Expedition...... I formed a new army this time, just to go to Nanzhong to calm the situation and train a barbarian army by the way, and His Royal Highness happened to give the name 'Wudang', could it be that in the dark, there is a providence? ”
Just as they were shocked, Zhang Bao and Guan Xing were already laughing and congratulating, and said in unison: "Good name!" Good name! ”
Jiang Wei didn't hesitate any longer, hugged his fists and bowed: "There is no deserved name, the minister likes it very much, and I thank His Highness for the name!" ”
Liu Chan laughed and helped him up, and said with a smile: "In this way, I will ask my father to take 'Wudang' as the name of the new army, and the application degree of the future army will be on par with the pro-army......"
******
Because the torrential rain showed no signs of abating, Jiang Wei ordered the whole army to rest, and the cook prepared wine and food to entertain the three distinguished guests who came from afar.
In addition to expressing their thoughts to each other and exchanging major events in the court, Zhang Bao also said that the king of Hanzhong gave him and Guan Xing a marriage, which caused Jiang Wei to be overjoyed and couldn't help but congratulate.
After three rounds of wine, Guan Xing picked up the wine glass, frowned and smiled: "This cup, let me wait for His Royal Highness the Prince...... Others may not know, but I, Guan Xing, know that the prince is about to marry the stars of my brother's family! ”
As soon as these words came out, Liu Chan didn't react yet, Jiang Wei, who was originally like a spring breeze, suddenly sat in an ice cave, although the smile was still on his face, his heart seemed to have fallen into the abyss.
His heart even skipped a beat, and his originally strong palm didn't even grasp the wine glass, and he fell to the ground with a "bang".
Seeing that everyone was following the prestige, he could only bend down to the table and hide the shock in his heart and face under the pretense of picking up the cup.
"What! Is Xingcai going to marry the prince as his wife, as in history? Could it be that I'm trying to get ahead, or am I one step slower?! ”
He had a sharp pain in his chest, and finally got up and sat back in his position, his face was already pale, and finally the focus of Zhang Bao and Guan Xing fell on Liu Chan, and he didn't notice his gaffe.
In the middle of the banquet, I saw Liu Chan expressionless, slowly shook his head, and said to Guan Xing: "Brother Hugh wants to make fun of me, my father has not yet issued an edict, this is still a shadowless thing." ”
When Jiang Wei heard this, a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in his heart. If Liu Bei has not yet issued an edict, then everything will still have a chance to turn around, and he is absolutely unwilling to sit idly by and ignore this matter.
After this period of intersection, Xingcai's dignified and elegant image, intelligent and gentle image has long been unforgettable, and he has a strong respect for her in his heart, in addition, there is deep pity.
Zhang Xingcai, the great Zhang queen of Liu Chan in history.
During her tenure as queen, she joined hands with Zhuge Liang in the court, Dong Yun and others in the palace to firmly suppress the wind and wandering in Liu Chan's bones, and tried her best to promote this seemingly cowardly, but in fact smart emperor, who was a virtuous minister and a far villain.
But judging from historical records and Liu Chan's performance this time, he actually doesn't like Da Zhanghou-
Xu was because she was too strict with the harem, which caused Liu Chan to be angry, and the husband and wife couldn't talk about any feelings, and they didn't leave a son and a half daughter; What's even more regrettable is that the historical Da Zhang Hou died of illness at a young age, and it is difficult to guarantee that it is not related to this indifferent husband and wife relationship.
In history, Xingcai and people who don't love each other came together, and their fate eventually turned into a tragedy, which made Jiang Wei, who loved her, how could she not feel pity?
Another point, according to his usual observations, he is very sure that Liu Chan's love is actually Xingcai's sister - Zhang Qingluo, the historical little Zhang Hou.
After the death of Empress Da Zhang, Liu Chan immediately chose his sister as his successor. The husband and wife were very affectionate, and even in the first year of Wei Xianxi, after the death of Shu Han, Xiao Zhang moved to Luoyang with Liu Chan. In the heart of the enemy country, the two also support each other, never abandon each other, and accompany each other for the rest of their lives.
At this time, Jiang Wei couldn't hear what everyone was saying at the banquet, and there was only an empty light left in his mind.
"Since I have crossed over and admired each other with Xingcai, it is natural that I want to avoid such a tragedy repeated...... As long as you can persuade the prince to face up to the person he loves, and ask him to show the lord his willingness not to marry Fei Qingluo, all this still has a chance to ......"
Thinking of this, he quickly glanced at Liu Chan, who was expressionless in the field, and secretly calculated in his heart, secretly thinking that he was at least eighty percent sure that he could persuade the prince that if he used any more means, he would not be afraid that the lord and Zhang Fei would not allow his marriage proposal.
Outside the camp, the rain was pouring down, and the fire in his heart gradually rose.
After repeated deductions, the odds of winning gradually increased, but at the moment he still has a very critical link that he can't be sure of-
Does Xingcai have the courage to make this decision to disobey his parents' orders and matchmakers' words like him!
The banquet in the tent continued, and his heart had already flown to Chengdu Jinli, thirty miles away.
"As long as she is willing to give me an affirmation, I will try my best to offend the lord, the prince, the three generals, and the two brothers-in-law, and I will give it a try and give it a try......"
