The long road of life, the love of the years. Life has been full of ups and downs, whether you are busy or tired, no matter what you do, you can't look at people with colored glasses. And at this moment, Li Jingheng seems to have entered an inescapable curse, and he is becoming more and more unable to extricate himself!

Looking back at the persistent Wang Xuance, Li Jingheng is very disgusted with this kind of persistence and self-righteousness. Therefore, he reprimanded contemptuously: "Don't be alarmist here, disturb the hearts of our army!" As he spoke, his heart flashed, and he was ready for the soldiers to take it down! Fortunately, Chen Lei, who was unknown, hurriedly stopped: "The general is angry, when this person is employed, temporarily leave this person to serve in the army!" ”

While speaking, Chen Lei pushed Li Jingheng forward quickly. Faced with the situation that could not be resolved, Wang Xuance's sense of loss arose! At this moment, he felt lonely, he felt untrusted, and he felt constrained; But what can it be? After all, he is a general, and he is just a last-rank officer! Standing in the messy and bleak autumn wind, the only thing he could think about was how to solve this dilemma......

In fact, Li Jingheng doesn't believe that Wang Xuance also has a reason, he relies on these years of experience, he didn't have it before, and he won't have it now. Wang Xuance relied on the summary of celestial phenomena and the recognition of laws; Everything is changing, and it is impossible to stay the same. The march and war focus on the decisiveness of the work and the agility of the commander; And Li Jingheng seems to be a little lacking in all this!

This is how history is made, and what happens inadvertently can affect the course of the whole event. Because of the smooth recruitment of troops, and the fact that they are all lightly armed cavalry, it is calculated that the time to arrive in Liangzhou is enough. Although his father was in danger, if this Tuyuhun wanted to conquer this strong Liangzhou City, it was not possible to do it in ten days and a half months. The cavalry needs to be recuperated more than the labor expedition; Only by ensuring the right morale can you defeat the enemy with one move. If the horses rush to this Liangzhou City, the horses are tired and the people are tired, this will be the end of the crossbow; In the face of the Tugu Hun enemy situation who waits for work, how to deal with the enemy in case of something! Even if the rain affected the speed of the march, it was impossible to block the way on this day like a summer torrent, which is why Li Jingheng did not follow Wang Xuance's advice. Because he was confident, he disdained such a suggestion. History, however, has often been an exception to this rule.

With the crisp autumn sky, the night has quietly come, according to the scheduled itinerary, the team of people settled in Chen Qingyi. This was originally a big post station, because of the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty, it has long become desolate and dilapidated, but there are still more than a dozen post guards stationed, of course, the food consumption is also very limited, and it is a drop in the bucket in the face of these 5,000 people!

The night came, and the bonfires stained the imposing barracks red; A bunch of you, a bunch of me, are very lively, without the slightest warning of a big battle. After dinner, several lieutenants followed Li Jingheng to sit around the bonfire, looking at the starry sky, chatting about the big things in their hearts, one of the lieutenants said: "General, I don't know how many days I can go back, I'm still thinking about my little lady" Another lieutenant replied casually: "What do you think about the little lady, as long as you defeat Tuyuhun this time, what's nothing?" Gold and silver jewelry, beautiful aunts, pick and choose! The big guy laughed out loud when he replied.

Looking at the stars in the sky, Chen Lei also chatted to Li Jingheng with a slight mockery: "Today, this Wang Xuance also said that the sky will change, how can it be possible to see this day; If you want to say that it is summer, the weather changes abruptly, I will still believe it a little, but at this time, hum ......"

Li Jingheng absentmindedly returned with a small stick carrying the bonfire: "As you said, if a person wants to make meritorious contributions, he can say anything; Just laugh it off, just laugh it off! At this time, Li Jingheng still thought that Wang Xuance was just trying to show himself! As everyone knows, such a clear night is in response to another proverb: there is no good sky at night, and it will rain continuously in the Ming Dynasty!

The late autumn night was chilly, and a cold wind blew, and I couldn't stop shivering. Wang Xuance also sat around the bonfire with all the soldiers, and said to his three gang leaders: "Look at the celestial phenomena tonight, the wind will rise in the second half of the night and change the sky!" If the day changes, it will rain heavily. So, tell the brethren to prepare their clothes and rain gear in advance in case it is difficult to march in the rain. After the three gang commanders received the order, they went to inform the soldiers under their command one by one!

Wang Xuance, who was full of ambition, forcibly suppressed the complaints in his heart, held the last glimmer of hope, thought about it, and still walked towards Li Jingheng's bonfire! And Li Jingheng, who was satisfied, watched Wang Xuance come over, said "I'm tired" to everyone, and got up and went back to his big tent! Wang Xuance saw this situation, and quickened his pace to catch up: "General, please believe me once!" Let's be prepared in advance! ”。

And Li Jingheng squinted at Wang Xuance, yawned and returned disdainfully: "I'm sleepy, let's talk about it tomorrow" As he spoke, he had already entered his tent. And the captains also followed in Li Jingheng's footsteps and dispersed. Wang Xuance, who was messy in the autumn wind, was deeply hit again! Looking at the crackling bonfire, he overturned the flag beside him with a fierce palm, and returned to his camp in anger!

As the night deepened, all the soldiers also fell asleep, but Wang Xuance tossed and turned, and couldn't sleep at night. In the late autumn of this year, the weather in the north is indeed very abnormal, and the wind starts in the second half of the night, and the north wind blows only makes people's hearts hairy. Hearing the noisy noise outside the camp tent, Wang Xuance, who was sleeping in his clothes, jumped up from the military bed. When I came out of the tent, I saw that several tents that had not been fixed were blown over by the strong wind in an instant. The cold wind of the ghost crying wolf howls goes straight into the neck, making people shiver! On the one hand, he assisted everyone in fixing the tents, and on the other hand, he personally pacified part of the military spirit of the riot.

With the strong wind and the rush of incense, this pouring rain will come with the wind! The crackling raindrops knocked on the tent, and Li Jingheng was also woken up by this urgent and tight voice. Chen Lei, who was wet from the rain, hurriedly rushed into Li Jingheng's big tent, looked at Li Jingheng, who had already woken up, and explained the scene that had just happened one by one. But seeing Li Jingheng wearing a cloak, looking at the soldiers who were panicking in the heavy rain and strong winds, and the bonfire that was extinguished by the rain, he immediately said: "Pass the order, let everyone go back to the tent to avoid the rain, such rain comes quickly, and it is also urgent!" "In a moment, in addition to the sound of rain in the barracks, the sound of the wind is also a little quiet!

In the second half of the night, flying sand and rocks, strong wind and rain, kept falling, and kept blowing; The next makes people's hearts hairy, and the shaving makes Li Jingheng restless. The next day, the rain continued. At this time, standing under the eaves of this post station, looking at such rain, Li Jingheng was a lot desolate. But the stubborn heart is still telling him that the rain will always stop. Yes, the rain will stop, but what about the schedule of the march?

With the sudden change in the weather, after the erosion of the heavy rain this night, some soldiers suddenly had typhoid fever and were very weak; And some of the war horses have also been infected! Wang Xuance, who had already predicted all this, couldn't help but sigh a few times when he looked at the opportunity to miss time. Although there is no good way, responsibility still drives his steps!

Looking at Li Jingheng, who was in a daze under the eaves, Wang Xuance walked over in a robe. Silently said to him: General, in the face of such weather, the last general feels that we should implement such a plan: "First, order the marching division to buy clothes as soon as possible. Second, order the officers of the school to inspect the sick children, treat the infected soldiers and horses as soon as possible, and boil cold medicines. Third: Inventory the grain and grass as soon as possible and think of countermeasures quickly. Fourth: Be prepared to march in rainy days to prevent the Chenjiahe pontoon bridge from being washed away by heavy rain.

Listening to Wang Xuance's detailed explanation, Li Jingheng's attitude softened slightly, but he still said calmly: "This has just arranged for Chen Lei to start preparing!" Looking at Li Jingheng's attitude, Wang Xuance knew that as a small team leader, he was also soft-spoken! The road ahead is very long, in the face of such a domineering general, Wang Xuance, who has suffered a lot of grievances, wants to leave, and then thinks about it, won't he become a coward and a deserter? Thinking about what Snow Goose once said, and thinking about Master, I can only endure it!

As the rings of time go by, history develops like this. Wang Xuance walked out of the post station quietly and returned to his camp, the rain was still crackling like this, although it was very melancholy, although the god of luck did not seem to be hanging around him! But the character of not admitting defeat told him deep down that what he could do was: be yourself and think of a good strategy to deal with it!

Looking at Wang Xuance's distant figure, and then looking at Li Jingheng, who was calm on the surface and flustered in his heart, he understood that what Wang Xuance said was all good strategies, and for today's plan, he can only rely on his strategy to respond to all changes without change! The casual sentence just now was exactly his words, so Chen Lei hurriedly came, and Wang Xuance's suggestion was immediately assigned to him. Fortunately, it is not far from the town, this first thing, the marching armor is easy to satisfy, and the clothes of five thousand people, as long as the forage is available, it is a matter of an hour. This second thing is not difficult!

Immediately afterwards, I saw that the grain officer came to his big tent and said: "The original plan was to reach the next grain collection point in three days, but in order to ensure the speed of the march, only enough grain was prepared at that time, and according to the current amount, it can be supported until the evening after tomorrow!" Li Jingheng understands that this heavy rain has delayed the marching schedule! If there is a shortage of food, morale will be low, and these hungry soldiers may be able to do something... Faced with a difficult situation, his heart is also anxious!

As soon as the grain officer left, Li Jingheng remembered that Chen Jiahe, who was blocking in front of him, was indeed a big problem. The Chenjia River, which is five miles away, is about 30 zhang wide and winds for more than 400 miles, and in the face of such rain, if the pontoon bridge is destroyed, the 5,000 cavalry will be completely blocked. Thinking of this, he quickly ordered Chen Lei to send people to quickly strengthen the Chenjiahe pontoon bridge.

When Chen Lei took the soldiers to the Chenjia River pontoon bridge, he found that the pontoon bridge had been washed away by the surging river. Chen Lei, who was trembling with fright, hurriedly reported back to Li Jingheng. Hearing this earth-shattering blow, he immediately panicked, his heart trembled, and he sat down on the chair: you must understand that if this rain continues like this, it will not only delay the military situation, but also lose your head!

The rain crackled like this for another two days, and the army was not only blocked at Chenqiaoyi. The heavy rain made the roads quite muddy, and even marching in the rain became impossible!

In the face of the destroyed pontoon bridge, the urgent military rations, the soldiers who fell ill from time to time, and the sick war horses, the morale became more and more low! Seeing such a predicament, Wang Xuance could only take the three gang leaders to check the water situation in the Chenjia River before the rain. Looking at the rising Chenjia River, and then look at the unstoppable heavy rain; Not only did he feel helpless, but it also made the old farmer, who was looking forward to the heavy rain, also look very melancholy!

After a while, a big boat slowly approached along the rising river, from far and near. Just a meal's time, the ship had sailed into the dock. I saw a boatload of people, some wearing robes, some holding umbrellas, jumping off the boat one by one. Watching this scene, Wang Xuance immediately braved the rain to meet him and asked: "Dare to ask all the old brothers, where does this come from and what is the water situation above?" ”

Looking at this sergeant-like person, these people will also tell the truth. Originally, they were in forced labor; Because of the rotation, he retreated from above; Although it rained heavily, it didn't affect their rotation in boats!

After some questioning and questioning, Wang Xuance suddenly understood the cause and effect of the matter. It is precisely because the imperial court built a city in the north of the upper reaches of the Chenjia River that they will be recruited and rotated regularly according to the custom. No, they happened to be rotated in this boatload; This official ship will take away so many more people who are serving in forced labor from here in the next two days. Thinking of this, Wang Xuance suddenly thought about it.

In this way, with joy in a mood, I was ready to go back to the horse. But it was so coincidental that in the distance, I saw a few horses and a few people, dressed in robes, coming slowly on the muddy road; If you look at it again, it is Li Jingheng and a few captains. In the distance, Chen Lei also saw Wang Xuance and them early, and pointed at Li Jingheng with a horsewhip and said, "Look, general, isn't it Wang Xuance ahead, why did they come here?" ”

It turned out that Li Jingheng was really clueless in the barracks, so he came out for a walk under the bewitchment of Chen Lei and a few lieutenants to see if he could find a solution to the problem. Li Jingheng followed the direction of Chen Lei's finger and found that it was them, thinking to himself, what is this kid doing here in the heavy rain? After thinking about it again, I vaguely felt that this Wang Xuance might have a plan! So he took it to heart, and hurriedly stepped on the very irritable muddy road, and hit the horse forward!

After a while, the two sides had converged in the heavy rain. After a simple etiquette, Wang Xuance immediately said: "General Yu, I heard that the pontoon bridge had been washed away, and I was also quite worried, so I took my brothers out to have a look, in order to find a way to cross the river." ”

When Li Jingheng heard Wang Xuance say this, with a little humility, he said with a pleasant face: "I regret not listening to the words of the virtuous brother that day, and only then will there be today's disaster; It's all my dereliction of duty!" As he spoke, he bowed deeply to Wang Xuance to apologize! In fact, when he heard Wang Xuance say such words, he already had a feeling in his heart that this kid had a way, so he put down his arrogant posture on the donkey!

It is said that this person, especially a good person, no matter how much harm you inflict on him; Speaking these few words of self-consideration, warm words, it is often easy to be soft-hearted. Listening to what Li Jingheng said, Wang Xuance's grievances in the depths of his heart a few days ago suddenly dissipated without a trace. Since Li Jingheng has said so, for the interests of the country and for the trust of the master, what else can he say! So Wang Xuance also immediately gave back a salute to Li Jingheng, which can be regarded as accepting his apology!

In life, some people are sincere, and some people are treacherous. Honest people treat each other sincerely everywhere; Treacherous people ask for it when they are in trouble, and abandon it when they have nothing to do! However, please understand that no one is stupid, you can cheat once, and you can cheat once; However, twice and three times, three times and twice will make people lose their trust and be honest!
