Chapter 350: Back to Guzang Again
p
In 394 AD, on the seventh day of the tenth month, the army successfully arrived on the outskirts of Guzang.
When Gu Zang appeared in everyone's sight, the expeditionary soldiers couldn't help but let out a burst of cheers.
Listening to the cheers in the sky, Wei Shuo smiled, and understood very well the urgency of everyone's desire to see their families.
"Dao peace, suppress evil, pass the order, don't conduct military training in the near future, and give each expeditionary soldier a seven-day vacation."
"Everyone has been away from their families for a long time, so let them reunite with their families."
"Subordinates obey!"
At this time, both sides of the streets in the city were already crowded with the people of Hexi who had come to greet the triumphant march of the army.
At the same time, all the civil and military forces led by Song Miao and Wang Maide went out of the city for twenty miles to welcome the return of Daduhu.
As soon as the two parties converged, the scene was too shocking and exciting, and only the heads of people could be seen moving from a distance.
Although most of the onlookers, including some grassroots officials in Hexi, could only stand far away.
I couldn't even see the face of Dadu Hu clearly, and I couldn't hear what Dadu Hu said, but it didn't prevent everyone from being excited and cheering.
Everyone was infected by the emotions around them and couldn't help but cheer.
The gates of the city have long been under martial law, and no one is temporarily allowed to enter or leave.
Song Xuan, Duan Ye, Wang Maide and others hurried up to meet them, followed by a large group of people.
"The ministers welcome the triumphant return of the capital."
"Hahaha, you have worked hard for your body and longevity! Let's go and go into the city with Shuo. ”
After speaking, Wei Shuo took Song Xuan and Duan Ye's arms, and walked towards the city first, followed by the rest of Cui Hao, Liu Muzhi, Wang Zhenwei and others.
……
In the box facing the street in a restaurant, two middle-aged people are sitting, and they know that their identities are not ordinary when they are dressed.
The two sat by the window, ordered some food and drink, but didn't move, just looked out the window at the lively street.
"I have heard that the Hexi Army is strong, and it is well known when I see it today."
I don't know how long it took, but one of them sighed leisurely.
When the person on the other side heard this, his body was stunned, and he couldn't help but say: "Wei Zhenxi has high aspirations, and he is assisted by famous generals such as Wang Zhenxi, Wang Maide, and Li Wei, and with the Hexi Army with strict military discipline, it is naturally invincible." ”
"Take this expedition to Merge Prefecture as an example, in the face of the joint advance of the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Yan, Wei Zhenxi still won the battle and forcibly recaptured the Merge State from Hu Lu."
"In Fan's opinion, the one who can unify the north in the future must be the protector of the Wei Dadu in front of him."
"Ancestor, do you say that most of the protectors can agree to the request of the eldest brother this time?" The middle-aged man asked before.
Bian Fanzhi pinched his chin and pondered for a moment and said, "You and I have to try anyway, otherwise we won't be able to go to Nanjun on the bus side." ”
The people sitting together drinking and chatting at the moment were Huan Xuan's confidant Bian Fanzhi and his cousin Huan Qian.
The two of them came all the way from Jiangling, and not long after they arrived in Hexi, they happened to meet Wei Shuo's class returning.
This time, they were assigned by Huan Xuan to come to Hexi to buy bed crossbows.
In recent years, Huan Xuan has greatly improved the equipment of the Huan family by smuggling equipment from Hexi.
Thousands of elite Huan's tribes are all equipped with Hexi standard equipment such as Mingguang armor, horizontal knives, and round shields.
In addition to being slightly inferior in terms of training, in terms of weapons and equipment alone, the Huan family troops are not much inferior to the Hexi Army.
However, as Huan Xuan's ambition became bigger and bigger, ordinary weapons and equipment could no longer meet his requirements.
Gradually, Huan Xuan's eyes were fixed on the bed crossbow series that was abundant in Hexi.
It's just that Hexi is extremely strict about the outflow of bed crossbows, and he tried many times before, but he couldn't buy bed crossbows.
Later, there was no way, so Huan Xuan had to send Bian Fanzhi and Huan Qian to Hexi to negotiate.
Huan Qian shook his head slightly, and was about to express his opinion, but he heard the crowd on the street, and someone kept shouting: "Coming, coming......"
He poked his head out and looked at it, just in time to see the expeditionary army appear at the corner of the street.
The sun and moon battle flag in front of him fluttered high in the wind, and under it was a Dadu protector in military uniform.
Behind him, about half of the horse's body, followed by Wang Zhenxi, Liu Muzhi, Song Xuan, Cui Hao, Wang Maide, Duan Ye and other important civil and military ministers.
Wherever the procession passed, the crowds on both sides of the street cheered again.
As the old saying goes, since ancient times, it has been the most popular among the successful.
"Huh? Yiyang Hou, look, isn't that Huan Zhenhuan joining the army? ”
In fact, without Bian Fanzhi's reminder, Huan Qian discovered Huan Zhen in the team early.
He had mixed feelings in his heart, looking at his nephew, listening to the deafening cheers, and his heart couldn't help but tense for a while.
Such a brave Huan family tiger didn't deal with the head of the family, Huan Xuan, and had to go to a foreign land to make contributions.
Sometimes Huan Qian can't help but fantasize, if Huan Zhen and Huan Xuan can be as united as Huan Wen, Huan Chong, and Huan Huo back then, why would the Huan family fall?
Even with his assistance from the side, the Huan family must be even more prominent than now.
"Yiyang Hou, I heard that this time Dao He has made a great contribution and killed the puppet emperor Murong Yong with his own hands."
"Why don't we find Dao and make peace in front of Daduhu?"
"Forget it, it's not easy for him to be alone in Hexi, don't bother to make peace first."
"Let's try it first, I really can't figure it out, and then I'll go to Dao and help."
"Okay, everything is under the orders of Yiyang Hou."
……
It wasn't until an hour later that the whole ceremony ended.
The onlookers were reluctant to leave, and still gathered in the streets to celebrate.
At this time, Dadu Hu had already bid farewell to all his henchmen and was galloping towards the Wei Mansion impatiently.
Coming to the gate of the Wei Mansion, Wei Shuo threw his mount to the guards and strode towards the mansion.
"Husband!"
A gust of fragrant wind wafted by, the beauty entered his arms, and Wei Shuo's heart was mixed.
He patted Guo Yuan's back comfortingly, but who knew that the strength in the beauty's hand was a little tighter.
Finally, Guo Yuan's mood stabilized under Wei Shuo's comfort, and she was about to step forward to meet Yin E, Meng Yao and several other wives and concubines.
Suddenly, I heard a naughty cry from my son.
"Daddy?"
Looking at his tiger-headed son, Wei Shuo felt infinite emotion in his heart, isn't it just to reunite with his family.
"Son! Come here, let Daddy hug me. Saying that, Wei Shuo ignored his son's dodge, and stepped forward to pick up his son.
At this moment, two more pink-carved boys came out of nowhere, staring at the familiar and strange person in front of them with wide eyes.
And the other little girl who had just been able to walk was breaking free from Yin E's grasp, staggering towards Wei Shuo, babbling behind the two elder brothers.
Wei Shuo put down his eldest son Wei Ji in surprise, stepped forward and picked up the third little girl, and gently touched the other party's pink forehead with his own forehead.
His action immediately caused the little girl to giggle, and her little hands kept shaking.
That night, the hall of the inner courtyard of the Wei Mansion was filled with a table of dishes.
Guo Yuan, Yin E, and Meng Yao's three wives and concubines, as well as Wang Shenai, who had not yet officially married into the door, all dressed up and sat together.
The three boys, dressed in brand new clothes, jumped and jumped mischievously and rejoiced.
Wei Shuo also took off his armor, changed into ordinary clothes, sat at the front of the table, and looked at the family with a smile in his eyes.
Thanks to him, a traverser, the diet of the Wei Mansion has always been very high, and it is basically made according to modern methods.
Except for some of the lack of necessary materials that cannot be made, most of them are delicacies that cannot be seen outside.
After drinking a few glasses of water and wine, Guo Yuan, Yin E and the others' faces quickly became rosy, and they became more and more delicate and charming, and Wei Shuo's heart jumped for a while.
Forcing the impatience in his heart, Wei Shuo cared about Wang Shenai again to see if she was used to living in Hexi.
Wang Shenai lowered her head and told him very shyly that she was doing well in the Wei Mansion and everyone took good care of her.
"Well, it's good to have a good time, don't treat yourself as an outsider."
"Speaking of which, you are also a member of this family, if you need to tell Madame directly, she will help you solve it."
"Please rest assured, the concubine will take care of the little lady Wang."
"Well, I'm relieved to leave the affairs of the inner house to Madame."
After eating, Wei Shuo did not immediately go to rest, but played with several children and told them stories at the same time.
These stories are some myths and legends related to the Tao of the Heavenly Master.
Since the creation of the Heavenly Master Dao, Wei Shuo has ordered Cheng Gongxing to compile some myths and stories to strengthen the influence of the Heavenly Master Dao.
Nowadays, with the spread of the Heavenly Master's Dao, it has gradually become a well-known mythological story.
