Chapter Eighty-Eight: Cutting Lu Shu (2-in-1)
This is the fifth day of the fifth month of May, which should be the day of the whole city to celebrate, race dragon boats and eat zongzi.
But after the main account of the Western Army moved into Qingjian City, and after the 30,000 Hebei Army entered the city, even the Western Army all over Shaanxi Road and Qinfeng Road began to slowly assemble, this Kuanzhou City of the year, and now Qingjian City, no one wants to commemorate Qu Yuan for the holiday.
First of all, strictly speaking, Qu Yuan is also a barbarian, at least, in Qu Yuan's era, the people of Chu are really barbarians, and secondly, this is not Jingzhou, not the old land of Jingchu, therefore, people's sense of identity with Qu Yuan is not so big, in previous years, the dragon boat race and eating zongzi were just a three-day holiday set by the court, which was really boring, and then, with people from other places, just have a good time.
Now, the news that the army has entered the city and is about to attack the Western Xia has come, and every household, all those who have men, have already gone to the barracks to participate in the war, and those who have great strength and can use two martial arts skills have enlisted as recruits.
The so-called auxiliary army is a soldier who does not go to the battlefield and is only responsible for transporting logistics materials, and the status of the group leader is slightly lower.
Liu Ernai is a rare rogue ranger in Qingjian City, why do you say that there are few of them, because this is the territory of the family army, and there are a few people who are not stingy with the kind of family, and there are really few people who dare to be that rogue ranger, because if they are caught, they will be beaten.
But Liu Er is very smart, he can judge the movements of the patrol forbidden army according to the clues, and it is really really the clues, so he has never been caught, so he is the only one in Qingjian City, and because of this, his life is quite leisurely.
After all, in the entire Qingjian City, there is only one guy like him who collects protection money, so the protection fee he can get is naturally quite generous, even if a small shop only gives him ten yuan a month, his monthly income will not be less than twenty yuan.
The weather was slightly cool, Liu Er got up, hummed an out-of-tune ballad, and shook a bunch of keys while humming, and he was ready to go out!
His mother was washing vegetables in the outer yard at this time, preparing to make zongzi, and when she saw that her son was going out again, the old woman sighed slightly, and said softly: "Erlang, didn't you go to collect money a few days ago, everyone is in the same city, don't do too much!" Don't go today! ”
Liu Er was slightly stunned: "Mother, no, my son is not going to do that dirty thing, my son is going to do something big now!" ”
"Big deal?! You still want to fight with Tanesaburo?! People eat a trench and grow wise, don't be let into the government! This Qingjian City is not like Hezhou City, and it can still spend money to redeem you! Liu Er's mother was full of worries, and when she mentioned Hezhou, Liu Er's mother slowly lowered her expression, and silently raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes.
Liu Er also went down, three years ago, Western Xia went south, Hezhou was lost, and the people of the whole city were killed and injured countless times, including his father and his brother.
His father took the rangers to help the officers and soldiers defend the city, but the officials and soldiers fled in despair, and the three thousand rangers, crying blood under the city of Hezhou, his brother, in order to protect him and his mother, lured the Xixia dog in the middle of the road, and there was no news.
"The big thing I want to do is revenge!" Liu Er said, slowly choking: "Now that Commander Xin is preparing to attack Western Xia and Tubo, and the 670,000 forbidden troops are gathered, this is the best opportunity for revenge!" ”
The old woman was slightly stunned, the tears in the corners of her eyes dried up, turned into a rage, and rushed towards Liu Er with a handful of leeks: "You fool, you are the only one left in the old Liu family, you haven't left a son for the old Liu family, you have to go to war, what kind of war are you fighting, those officers and soldiers, don't you know, it's clearly a group of people who eat and wait for death, once there is a big battle, don't you have to rush to the front, you go, can you come back?!" Brute, brute! ”
The leeks hit Liu Er's head one by one, and many leeks were broken and broken, spilling all over the ground.
The old lady seemed to be tired from the beating, and sat on the dirt: "Your father is a fool, he died in Hezhou, you don't have a long lesson, you don't have a long lesson!" ”
As she spoke, the old woman burst into tears, her cloudy eyes became even more cloudy, and she muttered to herself like a madman: "You don't have a long lesson, you don't have a long lesson!" ”
Liu Er had a stiff neck: "No, Hezhou is Hezhou, Qingjian City is Qingjian City, and it is not those waste soft eggs in the DPRK who are commanding the troops this time, it is Xin Shiyi Lang, Xin Shiyi Lang who invented the mountain dragon, and Xin Shiyi Lang who is 3,000 people in the Daimyo's Mansion is better than 50,000 people!" Mother, do you know, why did Xin Shiyi Lang fight with the official army in the Daimyo's Mansion! ”
"It's for his soldiers, his soldiers died in the Daimyo's Mansion, and he went to avenge his soldiers, with such a commander, absolutely, absolutely will not be abandoned......" Liu Er said and became a little unconfident.
Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, have there been fewer people abandoned by officials on the battlefield?
Not to mention the countless people and soldiers who died blindly, it was Yang Jiye, who was known as Yang Invincible back then, who died in Jinshazui because he was abandoned by the Prime Minister? !
"Not this time!" Liu Er opened his mouth and repeated it again, as if to comfort himself.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
If it weren't for the commander-in-chief of the Western Army being that Xin Shiyilang, he wouldn't want to believe the waste in the Great Song Dynasty at all, if it weren't for the fact that nearly 700,000 troops were gathered this time, he wouldn't have believed it.
It is precisely because the commander is Xin Shiyilang, and it is precisely because the total strength is nearly 700,000 that Liu Er feels that this is the best chance for revenge!
He's going to kill the Tangut dogs, kill many, many Tangut dogs! Avenge your father and brother!
"Mother, just let me go!" Liu Er knelt down.
The old woman was slightly stunned, and then cried: "You haven't left blood for the Liu family, you are not allowed to go!" ”
Liu Er shook his head: "Such a scoundrel, any girl is willing to marry me, but if Ke'er comes back from winning the battle, she can marry any girl she wants!" ”
"Mother, my son has decided, I will go to the barracks today! When the son goes, he wants to kill all the Xixia dogs. Liu Er's face was serious.
The old woman looked at her son dementedly: "What if you are like your father and brother, and never go back?!" ”
Liu Er wanted to say out loud, 'I'll never go back!' ’
But he couldn't bear it after all: "My son will definitely return!" ”
When the words fell, Liu Ertou rushed out of the house without looking back, anyway, the ranger has been making a living for many years, and the family has hundreds of fortunes, and the old mother has no worries!
The front of the barracks is densely packed, and all the strong men of every family gather here, perform martial arts, record names, and join the army!
Xin Xi sat on the main seat of the big tent, slowly dropped the paper in his hand on the table, and roared: "Look at it, look at it!" ”
"This is the people in the city, this is what the people of Qinfeng Road and Shaanxi Road think, everyone is willing to serve the country, everyone is willing to kill all the Xixia dogs, however, is this the point?! Is that the point?! ”
Just after reading the intelligence and news collected by the Shadow Guard Army, Xin Xi really felt very heartbroken, just like Liu Er, looking forward to killing all the people who wanted to kill Xixia Dog to avenge his father's brother's family and country, one after another, thousands of thousands.
However, it is also these thousands of people, and none of them believe in the Great Song Dynasty! No one believed in the Great Song Dynasty official army!
They were so wounded by the officers and soldiers!
Yang Wenguang took the paper and read it again, with a solemn expression.
After reading it, Han Qi's face was full of bitter smiles, when Sanchuankou and Shuichuan were reconciled, he also abandoned countless people!
Moreover, he happens to be the waste of the DPRK and China in the mouths of the people, this is not a general point, but scolded by name, this is an old man in his fifties who scolded angrily, and that old man was a member of the good Shuichuan family who died back then.
The funny thing is that Han Qi lost the battle, returned to the DPRK, and even became the prime minister.
Xin Zhen has no way to complain about Da Song's deformity!
After reading it, everyone under the tent was speechless and silent, they thought that they were defending the rivers and mountains of the Great Song Dynasty and the people of Li, but after really seeing the voices of the people of Limin, they all doubted themselves.
Xin Xi said coldly: "So, this time to start a war, I have only one request, my Great Song Dynasty official army, even if I fight to the death, I can't abandon an inch of land!" Thou shalt not forsake a people! ”
"Unless, the officers and soldiers are dead!" Xin Zhen opened his mouth lightly, and his voice was full of murderous aura.
"A little people, I'm afraid it's not that important, after all, when the army fights, there is always a time for strategic detours! The commander-in-chief is too demanding! ”
The one who spoke was Lu Xu, who was the commander of Yanzhou, and also the prefect of Qingjian City, who was born as a jinshi in the seventh year of Huangyou, and a proper standard literati of the Northern Song Dynasty!
Xin Zhen chuckled, his voice a little indifferent: "What strategic detour is needed for this operation?!" ”
"If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, the battle situation is ever-changing, you can't really destroy an army for a few people, right?!" Lu Shu was not afraid at all, just kidding, Xin Shiyi was just a child.
Xin Zhen shook his head: "Lu Shoushuai, Lu Governor's Mansion, didn't you see the content of the people scolding you?!" ”
"It's all a lie, I can't believe it!" Lu Shu shook his head, and he didn't even bother with Han Qi giving him a look.
Anyway, he was very unhappy, originally this Western Army, basically he was in charge, and he didn't say anything when he parachuted Han Qi or Yang Wenguang over, but now, he let Xin Shiyi, a hairy boy, occupy his place, and he was naturally unhappy.
Moreover, some Li people are talking nonsense, what's the point?!
It's just a bunch of fools, how do those people know their concerns?
"What did you say?!" Xin Xi glared at Lu Shu coldly.
Lu Shu chuckled: "It's just a group of foolish people, they only care about their families, they don't care about the country, we take care of the country, and the interests of the foolish people are different, so they are naturally scolded, so they are all fallacies, and they can't be trusted!" ”
"They don't care about the country?! Do you know that they love the country, but the country has never loved them! Xin Zhen shook his head, seeing that Lu Shu was about to refute, and suddenly, he felt that it was a very wise choice to not be admitted to the physique in his previous life.
"The commander-in-chief is really a joke, isn't it, the commander-in-chief is rebellious and still planning to win the hearts of the people?!" Lu Shu got up and shouted, as long as this name is stable, Xin Shiyi, the position of the commander-in-chief, must be given up to him no matter what!
Lu Shu thought so, however, he didn't see the admiration of the people in the tent for him, and he didn't see Han Qi's appreciation for him, but he saw a trace of horror in Han Qi's eyes.
Han Xianggong: This is ...... After kicking Xin Shiyi away, shouldn't the commander-in-chief make him the position, shouldn't it be Han Xianggong's? !
Why...... Isn't it appreciation?!
He's still thinking about it.
On the main seat, Xin Zhen raised his eyebrows slightly: "Thirty-six!" ”
Before Thirty-six made a move, Xin Yi, who was standing on the right side of Xin Zhen, had already rushed out, the long sword broke through the air, like lightning, fleeting, and when the white silk thread-like cold light was still in the eyes of everyone, the long sword was returned to the sheath.
Xin Yi retreated to Xin Yi's side.
It was also at this time that a trace of blood splattered out of Lu Xu's neck, and then, the entire head slowly slipped down and slammed heavily on the table in front of Lu Xu.
The red blood rendered the white paper on the table shockingly.
Inside the tent, the birds were silent, and the needles could be heard.
Han Qi shook his head and sighed, he just wanted to stop it, but it was still too late, but it was also Lu Xu's own fault, he clearly signaled him!
On the side, Yang Wenguang's heart trembled slightly, and a little young blood suddenly appeared in his heart, when he was first in charge of the army, he also encountered all kinds of difficulties for the military Chinese, at that time, he actually wanted to be like Xin Shiyi at this time, and cut things with a knife, but he couldn't, and he didn't dare!
At this time, seeing Xin Shiyi do what he wanted to do back then, he couldn't help but feel an incomparable feeling in his heart, and at the same time, he had more expectations for this battle!
This is the real war led by the warriors!
This kind of war led by martial artists was only done by Di Qing before Xin Shiyi, and because of this, Chong Shiheng is obviously equal to Di Qing, but only Di Qing is famous all over the world, and Chong Shiheng is too shrunken to care about the ideas of literati, so his reputation is not obvious.
It's just that Di Qing is sick and dead, but Chong Shiheng is dying!
Thinking of this, Yang Wenguang sighed slightly.
Yang Huaiyu and Yang Huaixing were full of admiration, and even had a look of worship in their eyes!
And the other generals and literati were shocked in their hearts, they can be regarded as truly knowing the commander-in-chief of the Western Military Power today!
Xin Yi frowned and glanced at Xin Yi, slightly speechless.
Xin Yi hugged the sword, glanced at Xin Yi, and pouted by the way.
Shaking his head without a trace, Xin Xi raised his head: "Come on, drag this corpse down, send it back to the Lu family, and let the Lu family be buried, in addition, if the Lu family is dissatisfied, you can come to me Xin Zhen!" ”
Two shadow guards guarding the door came in and dragged the body away.
Xin Xi then looked around and said: "The Jishi Army is intact, Old General Yang led the Huaide Army, out of the northwest, and hoarded in the Ancient Bone Dragon City, and at the same time, the old general also asked to strengthen the defense of the northern line, so as not to go south in Western Xia." ”
Yang Wenguang got up: "Respect the order!" ”
Xin Xi then spoke: "Chong Ge led the western army of 100,000 people, west out of Xuanwei City, to the border of Tibet!" Always on standby! ”
He stood up: "Honorable Order!" ”
Xin Xi looked back at Han Qi and said, "Han Xianggong, the alliance with the Tubo Nongdieer Department and the Hugeda Department will have to be made by Xianggong, of course, there will be three hundred shadow guards accompanying you!" ”
Han Qi smiled bitterly and nodded: "Honorable Order!" ”
"The rest of the generals will obey the orders according to the army to which they belong." Xin Xi continued to issue orders, but he was too lazy to transfer, anyway, these chief generals have their own subordinates, just follow the subordinates, and if you really want to arrange everything to the middle officer, Xin Xi is afraid that just issuing orders will have to play all day.
"The Last General's Order!" Everyone said in unison.
Xin Zhen nodded, and just wanted to dismiss the meeting, but he saw the blood left by Lu Xu, and said, "Rao Kaitai first temporarily took the position of commander of Yanzhou, in addition, Xin emphasized again, fight to the death and do not retreat, not an inch of land must be discarded, a common people, dare to violate the order, punish the three clans!" ”
"Whoa!" Everyone in the tent got up and promised loudly, Rao Kaitai was even more excited, this is the commander of Yanzhou? !
