Soon after, the footsteps sounded, and the chaotic speech was mixed with Cui Daoyuan's old laughter, and when the bead curtain shook, a group of mermaids entered the bedroom.

"Humble Zhao Qing, humble Tan Ping, give a salute to the handsome." Zhao Qing and Tan Ping hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down on one knee to salute Wang Yuan.

Wang Yuan sat down with a smile, smiled and waved his hand, "No courtesy." ”

Cui Daoyuan, Shen Zifang and others also stepped forward to salute, Cui Daoyuan smiled and said, "How does Xiangguo feel?" Can you recover? ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said: "It's fine, it's just some skin injuries, in fact, I can get up." ”

Cui Daoyuan hurriedly said: "No, although it is a skin injury, but Xiangguo knows how many injuries you have on your body?" There are fifteen or sixteen places, large and small, which is really remarkable. It's scary to think about. ”

Wang Yuan smiled and waved his hand, and Zhao Qing arched his hand and said in a deep voice: "Dashuai, the rescue of the lowly rank is late, let the handsome fall into a dangerous place, the lowly crime is unforgivable, please punish the marshal." ”

Tan Ping also confessed in a low voice.

Wang Yuan waved his hand and said, "What does it have to do with you?" I was careless. I figured that you would arrive after dawn, and I thought I could make sure that the walls were not lost for the night. However, he didn't hold on even overnight. If you hadn't arrived a few hours earlier than I expected, it would have been a big problem. You did a good job of attacking the rebel camp from the bottom of the kettle, which happened to hit their soft underbelly. There is no doubt that the two of you have done a great job in this battle. ”

Zhao Qing and Tan Ping were ashamed, and they were relieved to see that the big man was not to blame.

Cui Daoyuan said with a smile: "Xiangguo, it's not that you're careless, but that the rebels' attack this time is too fierce." They poured out of their nests, 50,000 soldiers and horses were all thrown into the siege, and our defenders only had more than 10,000 people, and they were poorly equipped, how could they be enemies? Having said that, if it weren't for his desperate gamble, the two generals would not have been able to successfully attack his camp with their cavalry, forcing him to order the collection of troops to rescue. It's called being a blessing when you lose your horse. ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "What Cui Weng said also makes some sense. I don't know how many people were killed or wounded on both sides of the battle. ”

Cui Daoyuan laughed and said, "Do you need to say this? A big win. Outside, the people beat gongs and drums and made a fuss. Xiangguo, when you go to the street, you will know that the people are happily celebrating the victory. More than 26,000 enemies were annihilated in this battle, and more than 8,000 of our Yangzhou defenders were killed and wounded. ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "I'm still satisfied with this result." But I don't know how many people were killed or injured? ”

Cui Daoyuan was stunned, and said in a deep voice: "There are more than 7,000 dead and injured people, hey, this is also no way." The people were very strong in defending the city, but they were unarmed after all. Although he had courage, he rushed to the city wall and fought hand-to-hand with the thieves. However, it was precisely because of the support of the people that the rebels' attack on both sides of the tower was delayed at a critical time. In short, the people have contributed a lot. ”

Wang Yuan sighed lightly: "Yes, if this battle is the work of the soldiers and horses defending the city, it is better to say that it is the work of the people." Whether it was the construction of fortifications before the war to carry materials, and the hand-to-hand combat against strong enemies who were not afraid of life and death, the people of Yangzhou were the chief heroes who could defend the city. It's a pity that Master Liu ...... Hey, in order to cut off the queen for me, I will die in harmony with the city. Cui Weng, Master Liu has been your old friend for decades, but I didn't expect it to end up like this. Cui Weng must have been heartbroken. ”

The smile on Cui Daoyuan's face disappeared without a trace, and he sighed: "Lao Liu and I have been working diligently in my Cui family for decades, and I didn't get any benefits, but I died here, which really makes the old man feel sad." His body was found under the city, and he was clinging to the bodies of the two thieves. Thinking of that scene, the old man's heart was like a knife. ”

Cui Daoyuan's face was sad, tears flashed in his eyes, and he was obviously extremely saddened by Liu Tan's death.

Wang Yuan nodded and said: "Cui Weng's festival mourns the change, Master Liu died for the sake of the soldiers and civilians of Yangzhou, and he can be regarded as a well-deserved death." There are also soldiers and civilians defending the city, and they all died well. Cui Weng, I suggest that we hold a ritual of worship in a few days to surpass their heroic spirits. The bereavement of the dead and disabled and the aftermath should also be done as soon as possible, and their heroic souls should not be concerned. It is better for the soul to return to reincarnation as soon as possible and ascend to bliss forever. ”

Cui Daoyuan nodded and said: "Xiangguo is benevolent and righteous, this is very true." This matter is wrapped up in the old man. If you don't say it, the old decay will also pay for them. The old man immediately arranged this memorial ceremony. When Xiangguo's injuries are better, let's gather the people to worship them. ”

Wang Yuan nodded and said, "That's great." There's Lautrion. ”

Cui Daoyuan waved his hand and said, "We are together, what kind words do you say." Speaking of the fierce battle between the people in the city, Wang Xiangguo knows whether it is still the head of Ruo Ying. This girl would have such courage, which surprised the old man. ”

Wang Yuan was stunned and said, "Is it Miss Ruo Yu who took the lead?" ”

"Yes, I'm ashamed to say that the old man and Yuan Bo also blocked it a lot, thinking that the city was going to be broken, so they ordered the ladies to get on the boat and prepare to withdraw from the south gate. But Ruo Yu said: If you withdraw at this time, the people's hearts will collapse. The Cui family should take the lead and set an example. Hehe, the old man has lived for sixty or seventy years, and his knowledge is not as good as that of a teenage girl. Shameful. Cui Daoyuan sighed.

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Cui Weng can say this calmly, which shows Cui Weng's frankness." In fact, that's human nature. However, for Miss Ruoyu's move, Cui Weng should have rushed to be happy. Your Cui family has this daughter, which is the result of your Cui family's solemn and reasonable governor. ”

Cui Daoyuan laughed, and he was at ease with Wang Yuan's evaluation, and he thought it was true.

"The rebels still have more than 37,000 soldiers and horses, but after this battle, they should have no spare strength to attack Yangzhou. However, their movements should be grasped in a timely manner. Can you send someone to find out where they are leaving? Wang Yuan turned to Zhao Qing and Tan Ping.

Zhao Qing arched his hand and said, "Great Marshal, the lowly rank has already sent scouts to keep an eye on their actions. They are currently resting in a town 15 miles west of Yangzhou. But I don't know where they will go next, but in short, the lowly rank will definitely keep an eye on them. ”

Wang Yuan frowned and nodded: "Everyone, although they are not able to attack Yangzhou for the time being, the siege of Yangzhou is solved. But we don't have the power to exterminate them now. And even if they didn't take Yangzhou, they could still avoid Yangzhou and flow west. The land of Jianghuai is probably their next target. Chuzhou, Dangtu, Luzhou, and Chaozhou are all likely to be attacked by them, because they have nowhere to go but to wander in the Jianghuai land. The damage caused by this kind of harassment is also enormous, so it must be eradicated as soon as possible. ”

Zhao Qing nodded and said: "What the marshal said is very true, please make the marshal clear the plan." ”

Wang Yuan lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Do you have any news about the movement of the army?" ”

Tan Ping said: "Marshal, the news we got is that Marshal Gao Xianzhi led 100,000 Shence troops to exterminate Linghu Chao's soldiers and horses. After resting, he is heading south, and it is estimated that it will take half a month to reach the land of Jianghuai. ”

Wang Yuanxi said: "Brother Gao really lived up to expectations, so that the soldiers and horses of the fox tide were exterminated, and the rebels had no way back. But half a month is too long. Zhao Qing Tan Ping, you send someone to immediately go back and order Deputy Marshal Gao, asking him to send Liu Jun's cavalry to the south first, without rushing to Yangzhou, along the line of Shouchun Luzhou to the south, and directly block the road of the rebels. In addition, after resting in Yangzhou for a day, you must go out of the city to keep an eye on the enemy army, do not engage them, just keep an eye on them. If they dare to cross the river from other places, or attack the big state capital, you will disturb them. Anyway, it's up to us to fight or leave, who called us cavalry? ”

Zhao Qing Tan hurriedly arched his hands and said in unison: "Obey the orders of the marshal." ”

Tan Ping said: "Dashuai, just lead more than 2,000 brothers to disturb and keep an eye on him, and General Zhao will take a few hundred people to stay in Yangzhou to protect Dashuai." The handsome body must be raised, but he can't bear the suffering. ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "I didn't say I wanted to go with me, okay, just do as you say." If I don't let you leave people to protect me, I'm afraid you won't want to. But in fact, Cui Weng took good care of me in Yangzhou, and the Cui family didn't know how polite they were to me. Choi Wong, do you say yes? ”

Cui Daoyuan coughed dryly a few times, stroked his beard and said, "It should be, it should be." Haha, haha. ”

……

The injuries on Wang Yuan's body healed quickly. His physical foundation was already very good, and the injuries he suffered were not fatal injuries. Coupled with the careful care of the Cui family, all kinds of precious medicinal materials are available, which makes Wang Yuan's face red. Famous doctors invited from Yuhang generals and other places also gathered here, and it is said that one of them is the descendant of the medical saint Zhang Zhongjing, who was invited to Yangzhou by the Cui family with a lot of money. But in fact, the descendants of this medical saint are just prescribing an ordinary prescription to replenish blood and qi. Because Wang Yuan is actually just losing too much blood and losing qi and blood, he is also prescribing the right medicine.

Five days later, at Wang Yuan's strong request, everyone finally agreed to let him get out of bed and walk around. In fact, there is no need to recuperate for five days, Wang Yuan's wound scarred and improved two days ago, and he could have gotten out of bed and walked around, but Cui Daoyuan, including Zhao Qing and others, did not let Wang Yuan get out of bed, at most only let Wang Yuan walk in the yard, which almost cost Wang Yuan's life.

Fortunately, with Cui Ruoying by her side, it is not too boring. These two have secretly done a lot of forbidden things in the past few days. Kiss and touch. The honey and oil that are ground by the milk ears and sideburns are like a small couple. Even in front of people, the warm feelings conveyed in the eyes of the two could not be hidden, and the hearts of everyone around them were shocked. However, Cui Daoyuan and Cui Yuanbo pretended not to see it, but secretly asked Cui Yuanbo's wife Wang to remind Cui Ruoyu that she must not do anything out of the ordinary. Zhao Qing and the other guards who stayed behind to protect Wang Yuan were naturally not surprised, obviously, there was another peerless beauty in the back house of the handsome. The handsome man is a peach blossom life, which is not enviable.

After recovering from his injuries, the first thing Wang Yuan did was to go around the city, which was enough to choke in the past few days, and it was said that the city was very lively, but it could only be through the mouths of others. On February 20, the wind and the sun were beautiful, Wang Yuan and Cui Ruoyu took Zhao Qing and more than a dozen other guards out of Cui's Mansion to play. It was nearly March, and Yangzhou and Jiangnan were only separated by a river, but in fact, the climate was almost the same as that of Jiangnan. Spring here comes just as early as spring in the south.

Walking on the wide street of Yangzhou City, the breeze blows, the greenery is swaying, and the people are bustling, which is a peaceful scene. Wang Yuan's mood was very comfortable and indescribable. No matter what the price was, it was worth the injury that kept this beautiful and rich city from being devastated by the rebels, and the lives of the people quickly returned to normal.
