Chapter 237: Fighting for the River Bridge and Generous and Sad Song (9)

Gao Aocao was brave and fierce, and Yuwentai and Zhao Gui certainly couldn't retreat at this time, which added to the fear of the Western Wei army against Gao Aocao.

Yu Wentai and Zhao Gui knew that there was no way to retreat at this time, but they knew in their hearts that the Western Wei army could have fewer enemies and more enemies, and Gao Ao Cao was only one person no matter how brave he was. The Eastern Wei army could not be made tall by Ao Cao. As long as the Eastern Wei army can be restrained and slowly encroached, I don't believe that Gao Ao Cao can transform into thousands of people by himself.

Gao Aocao and Hou Jing recovered the lost territory in Henan together, and returned to the Tiger Prison, first received news that the river bridge was lost, and the Western Wei army once attacked the city of Beizhong. Later, he received a disappearance saying that the Western Wei army encountered the general Gao Cheng and retreated to the south bank of the river bridge, and the general was defeated in Luoyang. Gao Aocao immediately rushed from the tiger prison to Mengjin and crossed the river bridge to rescue him. Just in time for the Western Wei army to attack the Eastern Wei military camp at night, and then Prime Minister Yu Wentai and hussar general Zhao Gui led heavy troops to rescue.

It's just that Gao Aocao hated himself for being a step late, and he actually watched Gao Cheng get hit by an arrow in front of the formation. News spread throughout the Western Wei army, saying that Gao Cheng, the leader of the Eastern Kou thieves, was hit by an arrow by the hussar general Zhao Gui, seriously injured, and was very likely to die. This further aroused Gao Aocao's hatred. If he can't destroy this group of western thieves and capture the Yuwen black otter alive, how can he explain to King Gao? If the general Gao Cheng really had an accident, how could he be the first fierce general in the Eastern Wei Dynasty again?

Wuwei General Hou and the special person sent a message to Gao Aocao, and the general Gao Cheng had been escorted to Heyin City. And he didn't notice at all that except for him fighting alone, Hou Jing, the assassin of Yuzhou in Heyin City behind him, did not send anyone to help him fight the western thieves.

Xikou is getting farther and farther away, and Gao Aocao is gradually moving away from Heyin City, and he is desperate to pursue, but he forgets that Xikou is not only Yuwentai and Zhao Gui. There are also Li Bi, Li Hu and others who are all treated with heavy soldiers. And when he was far away from Heyin City, everything fell into unpredictability.

There was chaos in the courtyard of the Heyin County Ya.

The defeated Eastern Wei army poured into the city of Heyin like a whirlwind. The Eastern Wei army defending the city at the head of the city saw that the auxiliary general Chen Yuankang was defeated, and the general Gao Cheng was gone, so he did not dare to open the city gate, so he hurried back to Hou Jing, the assassin of Yuzhou, who was guarding Heyin City.

The city gate was not opened, Chen Yuankang was angry and anxious, worried about Gao Cheng's injury, and worried about the battle situation on the side of Gao Aocao, the governor of the capital, and even worried about whether the elusive Western Wei army would suddenly come out of nowhere again, which was even more extraneous at this critical moment.

While waiting, Wuwei General Hou He suddenly returned with his men and horses. Hou He saw the remnants of the Eastern Wei Dynasty brought back by Chen Yuankang outside the city, and immediately urged him to step forward and ask Chen Yuankang, how is the general's injury?

I can't tell which day or night it is, but these days there has been a lot of fighting. It was gloomy and dark for several days, so it was hard to remember whether it was day or night. Hou He dismounted and walked closer, and saw that Chen Yuankang was crouching on the ground, and the injured general Gao Cheng was also lying on the ground. The surroundings were surrounded by layers of Eastern Wei troops, and I was afraid that there would be some accidents.

"How is the general's injury?!" Hou He pushed away the sergeant guarding Gao Cheng with his hands and feet, and asked with an anxious look.

He saw Gao Cheng with his eyes closed, his face pale, as if he was very weak. He has never seen Gao Cheng like this, in his past memory, this person is always lively, domineering and domineering, willful and proud, relying on himself to be the prince of Gao Wang is always commanding. I didn't expect him to have today, which made Hou He both excited and curious. He was out of curiosity, and he didn't really care about Gao Cheng.

The sergeant got out of the way, and Hou He walked over, also squatting on Chen Yuankang's side, carefully looking at Gao Cheng lying on the ground. "Where did the general get an arrow? Can arrows be poisonous? ”

"General Wu Wei, why are you back too?" Chen Yuankang asked patiently. He actually thought that the arrow was poisonous, was this out of concern, or did he accidentally expose what he hoped in his heart? Regarding Gao Cheng's injury, Chen Yuankang refused to reveal a word. He was very angry in his heart, knowing that it was the general who was defeated and seriously injured, Hou Jing, who was defending the city, dared not open the city gate for so long.

"I ......" Hou He raised his head to look at Chen Yuankang, then looked down at Gao Cheng, who was unconscious, raised his head again and replied confidently, "Why did General Changyou say this?" I am a subordinate of the general, so I naturally follow the general, and I will go wherever the general is. ”

Chen Yuankang looked at Hou He, and Hou He looked at Chen Yuankang. Hou He was a little weak-hearted, and he was afraid that Chen Yuankang would lose his temper. Chen Yuankang looked at him calmly, as if he didn't know him, and suddenly commanded calmly for a long time, "General Wuwei is right. In that case, let's bother General Wuwei to go and open the city gate first, and can't let the general lie on the ground like this, right? ”

Hou He didn't expect Chen Yuankang to thunder and rain a little, and he seemed to be angry, but in the end he was so soft, presumably because he knew that it was his father Hou Jing who was guarding the city. Hou He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, stood up and walked towards the city gate without thinking, and only threw over one sentence, "Such a trivial matter, without General Changyou's orders, ask General Changyou to carry the general over." ”

Chen Yuankang originally thought that Hou He also needed to call the door, but he didn't think that the city gate would open as soon as he appeared. Who knew that it was different from what he thought, Hou He didn't need a sergeant when he arrived at the head of the city, he turned his back to the city defender at the head of the city and commanded a few words, and it didn't take long for the city gate to really open.

And at this time, there is no news about the message to Hou Jing, the assassin of Yuzhou.

Chen Yuankang was shocked and angry in his heart, and secretly worried, he always felt that the son of the world was seriously injured at this time, and it was not practical to recuperate here. But for the time being, that's all there is to it. Because Gao Cheng had already ordered to send a letter to Gao Aocao, the governor of the capital, he repelled the Western Wei army and immediately returned to Heyin City to meet, and then discussed.

Chen Yuankang knew in his heart that the arrow wound of the prince should not be too serious, but he was tired for days, and the prince wanted to use this to make a plan. But with Hou Jing's father and son by his side, he had to be extra vigilant.

Entering Heyin City, Hou He couldn't help but be a little complacent. With Chen Yuankang escorting Gao Cheng to the county office. However, when he arrived at the gate of the county office, Chen Yuankang suddenly stopped Hou He, who wanted to enter.

"General Wuwei, didn't the general order you to be the vanguard guide for the Grand Governor? Now the Governor has pursued Sikor, and you have returned. When the general wakes up and asks, how do you answer? Chen Yuankang looked like he had just remembered it, blocking Hou He's way.

Chen Yuankang just deliberately wanted to support Hou He, and he couldn't say why, but he always felt that he couldn't let Hou Jing's father and son be together at this time, which would inevitably be unfavorable to the general.

Hou He was stunned by Chen Yuankang's question again. This question stopped him firmly, but Chen Yuankang still looked at him with concern.

"Yes, the lower official is just worried about the general's injury, come back and take a look. In addition, I want to return to the general: The governor of the capital chases the enemy, and he can't chase him all the way to Chang'an, right? And there is no one to answer, isn't it dangerous for the Metropolitan Governor to go deep alone? What is the general's order? “

That's the key question. also responded to what Gao Cheng said to Cui Jishu, his evaluation of Hou He, "It's not stupid to return". Hou He is really not a brainless person.

"The general does have a life." Hou He's words just led Chen Yuankang out of what he was going to say, so he simply ordered, "The general ordered the governor not to chase after the enemy, but to wait for the opportunity to withdraw to Heyin and discuss again." He looked at Hou He, "Then ask General Wuwei to pass the general's order to the governor." “

Hou He had no choice but to take the order.

Chen Yuankang was a little relieved at this time, and hurriedly escorted the general Gao Cheng into the Heyin County Ya.

At this time, Fang saw Hou Jing hurriedly coming out to greet him. That's right, the Duke of Puyang County, the Yuzhou Thorn History, and Situ Hou Jing actually limped from the deep courtyard of the county government and came out unhurriedly. What's ridiculous is that there are still a group of slaves and maids behind him, so he doesn't look like a general who kills the enemy in front of the battle and has a plan in his belly, but like a butler cangtou slave.

Seeing Chen Yuankang in front of him, a large group of people surrounded the general Gao Cheng who was carried in by the arrow and poured into the Heyin County Ya, Hou Jing immediately quickened his pace to catch up. This was even more ridiculous, and he was so disrespectful of his demeanor that he clearly wanted to prove that he was in a hurry.

Chen Yuankang's heart was furious. The city gate was not opened for a long time, and sure enough, Hou Jing deliberately delayed. Who would dare to open the gates without him giving orders? It turned out that he didn't order the opening of the city at all, and he himself didn't even come out of the county office. Now that he knows that the general has been wounded by an arrow and can still sit in the county office, his thoughts can be imagined. "General Changyou!" Hou Jing took the initiative to speak, "I personally sprinkled and paved it, and I have prepared a proper place for the general to be placed, please General Changyou to carry the general in." Hou Jing said to himself, and he was full of relief, just to let people understand that he was willing to do these things for the general that should have been done by slaves.

is willing to be a slave and a slave like this, as if he is really willing to submit. Doing all this kind of thing, but keeping the wounded general out of the city, is more like an unintentional mistake. If you want to criticize him for this, it will seem that he is troublesome, Chen Yuankang is suspicious and angry, and he can't attack, and he understands Gao Cheng's difficulties better at this moment.

"The county prince is hard, don't be so worried, the general is not seriously injured. It's hard for the county prince to think so thoughtfully, and do it himself, the general is too tired, and the county prince is so caring and agreeable, presumably the general will be fine after a few days of recuperation. Chen Yuankang thanked Hou Jing calmly, and had to be humiliated.

"Isn't the general seriously injured?" Hou Jing said suspiciously, he stopped in front of Chen Yuankang and did not let the way out, behind him were servants and slaves. Behind Chen Yuankang were soldiers and soldiers carrying Gao Cheng and hugging him. It's like two opposites, and neither of them will give in. Hou Jing's expression didn't seem to be happy or sad, and it seemed to be suspicious, but he quickly turned into a look of relief, as if he said to himself, "It's okay, it's okay." As he spoke, he walked over to look at Gao Cheng.

Chen Yuankang found that Hou Jing's expression when he looked at Gao Cheng was the same as when he looked at Gao Cheng outside the city gate just now, and he was excited and curious. Chen Yuankang tried to endure.

Hou Jing looked at Gao Cheng's pale face and his eyes were slightly closed. At this time, it was almost dusk, the sky was cloudy and snowy, and I didn't know if he was cold or because of pain, he looked very weak and weak, not like Chen Yuankang said that the injury was not serious. "General......" Hou Jing stared at Gao Cheng and called him, his voice was cold and hard.

Gao Cheng slowly opened his eyes in response. Those green eyes always seemed to be gloomy and evil, even if he was injured, weak, and lost his spirit at this time. Hou Jing had something in his heart, and he was stared at by him, and smiled a little unnaturally, "The general is really fine, so I can rest assured." “

"There is labor...... The county prince was worried......" Gao Cheng also smiled reluctantly. "Heyin City is handed over to the county prince...... Sure enough, yes. When he had said these words, he swept his eyes to the left and right, and commanded, "The soldiers have been fighting for days and are tired, so they will rest in Heyin for a few days. The Governor and General Wuwei soon returned to discuss countermeasures. ”

Gao Cheng tried his best to stop talking after giving the order. Chen Yuankang ordered someone to carry Gao Cheng in, and then immediately summoned the imperial doctor of the army to come in to treat his injuries.

Because it was the general who personally led the army to the west, it was the queen Gao Yuanjun who specially ordered Taichang to assign the imperial doctor's order, and several doctors were coming with the army. At this time, it worked, and the Imperial Doctor Ling was different from Hou Jing, and immediately came with Yizheng and the Golden Sores Doctor. It can be seen that the imperial physician order is very attentive and extraordinarily careful. I asked about the injury in advance, so I brought a gold sore doctor.

Heyin County Ya is the most neat house in Heyin City, with several courtyards in front of the government office and Yan Bed in the back. Hou Jing personally sprinkled and paved the courtyard of the Yan Bed behind. Of course, there is no way to compare it with the Great General's Mansion in Yecheng, and it can't be the same at all.

The compound is not large, and it looks bare in winter. The house was low and cramped, and because the weather was always gloomy, the inside of the house was also dim and gloomy. As soon as you enter, the rustic atmosphere is very heavy, stimulating people's breathing and almost suffocating. It makes people wonder if there are any people living in this house, and whether anyone has really lived here, as if it were an old mansion. However, the furnishings are well organized, although simple and neat. There is nothing else outside the couch and a few, and it is a little unorthodox.

The wounded general Gao Cheng was unarmored and placed on the couch. There was a brazier in the house, but it was still cold. In order to facilitate the doctor to examine the wounds, more lamps and candles were deliberately lit. The already small space is extremely cramped. Chen Yuankang ordered all the irrelevant people to withdraw, and only the healing medical officer and two servants were left inside.

The imperial physician carefully inspected it, and the general was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and the injury was not critical. Because since the Western Expedition, there has been no time to eat, no place to live, the weather is humid and cold, and the war situation has been too exhausted, and the melee has been too tiring for days...... Therefore, it seems that the arrow wound is too serious, but the actual reason for correcting it is extremely complicated.

The way to treat the injury is to take out the arrow clusters that have broken into the skin, and then apply medicine to recuperate, and then remove the saprophylaxis, and it will be fine. This was not a difficult situation, and the injury was clear, so the imperial doctor discussed with Yizheng and the gold sore doctor and returned the matter of how to heal the injury to Chen Yuankang.

Although Chen Yuankang was also worried, he also understood that there was no other way but to do this.

Gold sores are in the industry, and I don't know how many times I've seen this situation. It's just that in the past, ordinary soldiers were shot by arrows, and even generals and governors were easy to start, and they never hesitated to catch them, but this time it was very different. So what I had done was a little bit afraid to start.
