Chapter 282: Dragon's Blood Stone
The sun slowly rose from the east, shining on the blood-stained streets of the city, and also on the bloodshot eyes of Yuanhang.
"Adults must have been too tired last night and didn't rest." The Qin Dynasty did not participate in the battle last night, and Fu Yashi asked him to lead troops to clean up the corpses in the city early in the morning. When he saw the voyage coming, he greeted him.
"yes." Yuanhang nodded in response, "In the battle last night, how many men and horses did our army lose?" ”
Qin Chao glanced back at the carriage that was transporting the corpses, and replied, "It has not been counted yet, I am afraid that there are no less than eight thousand people." ”
Yuanhang felt a little sad after hearing this, and sighed, "These are all the people of Daliang, so they are buried in a foreign land, when is the war?" ”
Wuying followed behind him and said with relief: "Adults are kind, there will inevitably be casualties in the war, they sacrificed their lives for the country, and their death is worth it." ”
"It's worth a fart, even if Liang Guo dominates the world, who will remember them."
"My lord, don't say this......" Qin Chao saw that Yuanhang's mood had changed, and hurriedly stopped him, afraid that he would say the wrong thing.
Yuanhang knew that the Qin Dynasty was for his own good, so he calmed his breath for a while, and said, "Let's choose a good place to bury them." ”
After a round from the city, he sailed to the garrison mansion. This garrison is nothing compared to his own.
"The garrison of a country's capital is nothing more than that." Yuanhang turned around and smiled at everyone. Fu Yashi echoed and said: "My lord is loved by the saint, I am afraid that the garrison of the whole world is not as lenient as my lord." ”
"That's true." Yuanhang smiled and walked inside, waved his hand back and said, "Yashi, count the casualties of the enemy and me later, write a note and send it back to the imperial court." ”
"Don't worry, you'll do it later." Fu Yashi followed him into the mansion gate, and Wuying and the others also followed.
Although this garrison mansion is not as large as the Yuanhang Mansion, it is still large enough. There are several houses in the east and west, a square courtyard in the middle, and a small garden in the backyard.
The voyage chose one at random, and the Shadowless Soldier moved his belongings inside.
"This garrison is greedy for money, and he fled in a hurry, there will be property in the house, you go and search, and whoever finds it will be his." Yuanhang looked around the room, turned around and walked towards the courtyard.
"Oh, yes." Yuanhang suddenly stopped, scared of his head, and suddenly said: "You have to remind me that there are still five boxes of treasures to forget." And they looked at each other, and if they were to speak of a guard who was greedy for money, who would be better than him......
Suzhou, the capital of Qi, Qi Heng, the king of Qi, summoned his ministers to the palace. The veteran Sima Jian passed back the recital, and the angry and humble defenders of the city did not fight, and the Qi army attacked the city several times, and is now facing off outside the city of Curry.
Qi Heng threw the fold on the big case, and the emerald beads on the crown of Zhen's head rattled, "Everyone, Aiqing, now that you are angry and humble and don't fight, our army can't attack it, do you have a good plan?" ”
Your Highness, look at me, I look at you, and no one dares to be the first to answer.
Prime Minister He Lanfeng flashed sideways and stood up. He said: "Holy Lord, the angry soldiers are coming, it can be seen that they have made up their minds to recapture those three cities, and now if they want to storm it, even if they recapture the cities, I am afraid that our army will lose half." The minister's intention may wish to send an envoy to divide the two cities of Duhuan and Curry into Nubei, and only one city of Musu will be left in our country, which is enough to block the road outside the plug. ”
"Now I have a strong army, but I want to make peace with that angry and humble, will not make the people of the world laugh." Qi Heng seemed to be very dissatisfied with Helan Feng's proposal, and his face showed a little anger.
Helan Feng hurriedly continued: "Of the three cities, only Mu Su is close to Chenzhou Bridge, and with this city in hand, our army can defend against Nubei. Give up the two cities with them, and Nubei will accept it if he wants to. If not, the Holy One will be overwhelmed by another army. If they do, they can avoid war. ”
Qi Heng thought about it for a while, and felt that there was some truth, but he was unwilling to lose the two cities like this, and when he was undecided, Qi Bo's urgent letter was transmitted to Suzhou.
Qi Heng was shocked when he saw it, Liang Guo sent troops to attack Qi Bo, and this timing was too much. Now that the troops of Suzhou have been taken by Sima Jian, there are only tens of thousands of troops in the entire city of Suzhou, how to send troops to Yubo?
Qi Heng handed over the urgent letter to Helan Feng, and Helan Feng was also surprised after reading it, "Holy Lord, now that General Sima is still outside the fortress, he should send it back immediately, and then send reinforcements from various states to rush to Qibo for reinforcements." ”
Qi Heng hurriedly agreed, and ordered to dispatch soldiers and horses from Guxin Mansion and Yin Tiancheng to Qibo, and sent people to Saiwai in an urgent manner, so that Sima Jian could lead the troops back to fight against Liang State.
Only two days after the decree of the king of Qi was spread, news came from the west that Qi Bo had fallen into the hands of the Liang army. Now the soldiers and horses of the ancient Xinfu have rushed to Yin Tian City, and they are holding Yin Tian City together with the retreat of Qi Bo.
"Holy Lord, the Liang State is menacing, and it coincides with the time when our army is heading north, so we should immediately negotiate peace with Nubei and gather troops to fight the Liang State." Helan Feng said. This time, Qi Heng did not hesitate, and immediately issued an order to negotiate peace with Nubei, and ordered Sima Jian to return as soon as possible.
The voyage repaired in Yibo for two days, leaving a small number of soldiers and horses to garrison, and led the army to continue to the east, killing Yin Tiancheng.
After traveling for two days, they came to the place where the treasure chest was buried in the voyage. Seeing that it was not too early, Yuanhang ordered the army to camp and rest.
"Wuying, you and Ah Jin will take someone to dig out those boxes of treasures, or take them with you to be more practical." After setting up the tent, Yuanhang was anxious for those treasures, and summoned Wuying and Ah Jin into the tent.
"My lord, do you want to march with a suitcase?"
"Take it, and I'm not sure when I'll be back."
Wuying didn't ask any more questions, and walked towards the left side of the official road with Ah Jin.
The voyage waited in the camp for a long time, and they rushed back without a shadow, and the soldiers carried in five boxes from the outside, side by side on the ground.
"Open one and see what's inside." The voyage sent the soldiers back, leaving only no shadow and ah jin in the tent, and I couldn't help but have a sneak peek in my heart.
Shadowless pulled out a single knife, stepped forward to cut the lock, and then cut the sealing wax along the gap, and lifted the lid of the box.
There was no gold or silver in the chest, and there was a pile of things. Yuanhang crouched down and reached for an object, a bronze object resembling a wine glass, and it was also inlaid with precious stones.
"This is good, leave it to Dao Zi, it's much more stylish to drink with it." Yuanhang threw the cup into the box, he was not interested in the antiquities.
"Hey, what is this?" There is a square box in the middle of the box, which looks like a jewelry box. Yuanhang picked it up and opened the box, which was wrapped in yellow satin.
"Believe it or not, it's a pearl of the night?" Yuanhang felt that it was a round object inside, and looked up at the two of them, with a smile on the corner of his mouth. They stared wide-eyed, looking a little like each other.
Slowly, the silk was opened, and to the great disappointment of the voyage, it was not a jewel that shone in the likeness, but an oval, dark red stone, which looked ordinary, like a random stone found on the riverbed. Except for being exceptionally smooth, there is nothing special about it.
"What is this?" He threw away the silk and put the stone in the palm of his hand, and held it up to show them.
Ah Jin reached out and picked it up, looked at the candle flame for a moment, shook his head and handed it to Wuying. After seeing it, Wuying didn't know it, so he handed it back to Yuanhang and said, "I can't see anything abnormal, it seems to be a stone." ”
"If it's an ordinary stone, how can it be in this treasure chest." Yuanhang was a little unconvinced, and said to Wuying: "You go and summon Yashi to see if he has known him." ”
Wuying responded to call Fu Yashi, and the voyage went to rummage through the box again, all of which were antique things. If it is today, but it has made a fortune, but now, these things can only be used as decorations.
Fu Yashi entered the camp tent with Wuying, and Yuanhang handed over the stone in his hand, "Come and see, is there anything different about this stone?" ”
Fu Yashi looked down at the box, took the stone and put it in the palm of his hand to look at it carefully. After looking at it for a long time, he put the stone in his mouth and stuck out his tongue to lick it.
"I said, you don't know it, how can you still talk about it." Yuanhang waited for a long time, and when he saw that he seemed to be very serious, he couldn't help but ask.
Fu Yashi returned the stone to Yuanhang, frowned and said, "My lord, forgive me for being clumsy......"
"Yes, it's in vain." With a wave of his hand, Yuanhang threw the stone back into the box. Fu Yashi hurriedly bent over and took the stone back in the box, "My lord, although I don't know for sure, this ten* is the dragon blood stone, which is a treasure of ten thousand years, how can you discard it at will." ”
"Dragon's Blood Stone?" Yuanhang took it in surprise and looked at the candle flame decently.
Fu Yashi walked in and said slowly: "There has always been such a legend among the people, 10,000 years ago, there was a kind of creature, extremely large, fierce and abnormal, it was the king of the world, and it could kill tigers and leopards. ”
"Dinosaurs?" Yuan Voyage suddenly remembered that kind of behemoth and blurted out.
"This stone is produced in the gall of the dragon body, after years of friction, absorbing the blood of the dragon body, and containing all the essence, it can be called a unique gem." Fu Yashi just relied on his own judgment and told everything he knew.
Yuanhang was suspicious, looking at the red stone in his hand. It's not big, but it's solid. The surface is smooth without a single blemish, but the color is dark, and it doesn't look like something of value, is this the gallstones of dinosaurs?
"What is the use of this stone? You say he's a gem. "I don't know anything except that the stone is a little hot.
"If it's really a dragon's blood stone, it's very useful." Fu Yashi smiled lightly and took the stone from Yuanhang's hand, "This stone is extremely cool in summer, and it emits heat in winter, so if you take this stone on your body, you can be warm in winter and cool in summer." Moreover, placing this stone at the umbilicus can release the essence of the stone and play the effect of removing diseases and saving people. ”
"I'll it, it's so powerful." Yuanhang hurriedly took the stone in his hand, as if he was afraid that Fu Yashi would not give it to him, and said with a smile: "Regardless of whether what you said is true or not, I will not leave this stone." ”
"Haha......" The group laughed together.
"In that box, you can take whatever you like, and the rest of the boxes will not be opened first, and someone will be sent to take care of them." Yuanhang clung to the stone tightly, and at this time he really felt that his body was not cold at all, but a little hot and sweaty.
Several people did not choose the items, closed the box and ordered someone to carry it down to take care of it, and left after saying goodbye to the voyage.
When they were gone, Yuanhang felt the heat and discomfort, and took off his clothes one by one, and finally wore only a summer shirt to feel comfortable.
"It seems that this is really a dragon's blood stone, it's winter now, I only wear one but it's not cold at all, it's really a treasure." Yuanhang muttered to himself, climbed into bed with a rock, and fell asleep with a smile on his face.
Sima Jian was far away in Saibei, and when he received the holy decree of the King of Qi, he sent an envoy to negotiate peace with Nubei. Seeing that Qi took the initiative to sue for peace, King Qian guessed that Liang had already sent troops, and categorically rejected Qi's intention to sue for peace. Sima Jian had no choice but to withdraw his troops, wanting to retreat to Chenzhou little by little, and then lead his troops westward to confront Liang State.
Seeing that the Qi army wanted to withdraw its troops, Nubei sent troops out of the city to chase and kill, and Sima Jian had no choice but to line up and fight, with casualties on both sides, but it slowed down the retreat of the Qi army.
Qi Heng did not wait for the news of the withdrawal of Sima Jian's army, but waited for the news that the Marshal of Liang led the army Situ Hao to attack the official mall from the east, and the whole country of Qi was shocked, and then he knew that the seizure of the city and the sending of troops by Liang were not coincidences, but premeditated.
"Holy one, the danger of the country." The important ministers of Qi gathered in the palace, and Helan Feng hurriedly said, "Now that the Nubei army has attacked Chenzhou, General Sima is fighting with Nubei in the north. The east and west roads of the Liang State are pressing, and Ye Yuanhang on the west road has broken through the Bo to attack under Yintian City, and the urgent letter sent by the eastern official mall is also in danger. I also ask the Holy Lord to immediately send troops to rescue the two places, so as to ensure that our borders are safe. ”
Qi Heng was full of melancholy, sitting there with his head drooping, all the domineering was like snowflakes scattered outside the house, blown by the cold wind.
"He Aiqing, I also want to send troops, but how to send troops?" In just a few days, Qi Heng's voice turned into a hoarse voice, "There are only tens of thousands of troops in Suzhou, and there are more than 100,000 in the neighboring states, but where should they be divided?" ”
Helan Feng thought for a moment and said: "Now I don't know if the Liang Kingdom is advancing in two ways, or if it is one real and one is virtual, so I can only divide the troops into two and distribute things. ”
"But if Liang Guo doesn't move all the way, only makes a feint, and attacks the other way, won't our army have more than 100,000 troops being dragged over?"
"Now there are more than 100,000 Liang troops on the west road, this road must be a strong attack, and the exact news of the enemy army in the east has not yet come, but we must also send troops, otherwise I am afraid it will be too late." Helan Feng was also afraid that the Liang army would deploy the tiger from the mountain again, if the troops were divided into the east and west, there would be only a few Liang troops on the east road, and if they attacked on the west road, it would be too late for the Qi army to withdraw reinforcements from the east to the west road.
"Okay, send more people and horses from Suzhou to Yintian City, send the defenders of Guxin Mansion to rush to Yintian, and the rest of the soldiers and horses of the state capital will go west to support the officials and merchants." Qi Heng made a decision to send all the more than 500,000 troops in the country. There were 170,000 troops in the north and nearly 180,000 troops in the west, and defenders were drawn from various states, totaling 170,000 to rush to the east, so as to deal with the passive situation of being attacked on three sides.
