Chapter 18: Don't Mess With Me!

Wuzhi Mountain, located in the floating opera mountain.

It's like a dream world: the canyon is deep and verdant, and the herbs are thick, like a python with kudzu rattans, and you can see it everywhere.

It's autumn, and the mountains are full of autumn leaves.

There is a butterfly valley where thousands of colorful butterflies meet, and there are also continuous underground caves. Every winter, the snow does not melt, the purple gas is steaming, and the auspicious clouds linger, which is a rare feng shui treasure land. In the mountains, there is also an eight-kilometer-long canyon with nine winding winds and rushing water.

Zheng Yanqing and Xu Shiji sat on the top of the mountain, looking at the beautiful scenery.

"Brother Xu, in two days, I will go out with the sect."

Xu Shiji said: "I heard about it, and I came for this matter. ”

"Brother Xu, don't you have anything to say?"

Xu Shiji hesitated, looked around, and saw that there were no bystanders, so he lowered his voice and said: "Yanqing, this time Your Majesty raised the country's troops, which seems to be huge, but I think that I am afraid it is not so easy." His Majesty did not understand the situation in Goguryeo at all, so he took the liberty of sending troops.

I'm worried that there will be accidents. ”

This is also the first time that Zheng Yanqing has heard bad opinions since he knew that Yang Guang intended to go east.

However, he asked tentatively: "It is said that this time it is Your Majesty's personal expedition and personally commanding the battle, so it should be no problem." ”

"I'm afraid of this."

Xu Shiji said: "Your Majesty, although I commanded battles in the past, there were Gao Ying Yang Su inside, and famous generals such as He Ruobi and Han Baohu outside. He was just supervising the battle, and he didn't really command. But this time, he had to take command himself...... If you change to any of the generals in the DPRK and China, this battle will be won, and there is no need to worry. However, His Majesty wants to lead the army, and I am afraid that there will be chaos. On the battlefield, there are too many variables.

Moreover, His Majesty did not have the main purpose of destroying Goguryeo this time.

To put it mildly, he just wanted to show off the national strength of the Great Sui. If you lose once, I'm afraid that there will be two or three ...... If it can't be won, the national strength will be squandered after all. The most terrible thing is that the Kanto region is not at peace now. Your Majesty is not in a hurry to calm down the situation in the DPRK and China first, and if you blindly use troops against Liaodong, I am afraid that the situation will be even more erosive. ”

When Xu Shiji said this, he obviously mustered up all his courage.

Zheng Yanqing was silent!

For no other reason, he found that what Xu Shiji said was strikingly similar to history. Is this the ability of the military god of the early Tang Dynasty?

"Brother Xu, are these what you think?"

Xu Shiji hesitated, "Some of them are what I think, and some of them are not ......"

"Oh?"

"There are some, it is the opinion of the Fang County Order. I came this time, that is, I was instructed by the Fang County Order to tell you that if you can not participate, it is best not to participate. Because accidents are likely to happen. The Manchu dynasty did not look at Goguryeo in their eyes, but in fact, that small country was by no means easy to match. Fang Xian Ling studied some of the situation in Goguryeo and believed that the time of the year suitable for fighting there was not very long. Once it gets into a war of attrition, it will put tremendous pressure on the imperial court, and it may even be defeated.

In addition, under the rule of Goguryeo, there were not many large towns, but mainly Wubao, the city was high and strong, and there was enough grain and grass inside. If we can't solve it quickly, I'm afraid it will be doomed. The Goguryeo people are known for their repetition and lack of morality, etiquette, and shame...... Your Majesty's current surname is really not suitable for commanding battles. Fang County ordered me to tell you that if you can't avoid it, you must always pay attention to safety. ”

Zheng Yanqing didn't say a word, picked up a stone, and threw it into the valley.

"Brother Xu, if the world is like ...... I mean, if the situation really happens, what choice should you make? ”

"Choose?"

Xu Shiji thought for a while, and suddenly smiled, "What choice you make, what choice I make." ”

"You believe me so much?"

Yan Qing turned his head to look at him and said softly, "Maybe my choice is wrong?" ”

"That's right, I'm going to push you to the right choice...... And we've known each other for seven years, and it seems that your choice hasn't gone wrong. ”

Zheng Yanqing couldn't help laughing, and Xu Shiji also laughed!

From this moment on, Yan Qing knew that Xu Shiji was already firmly tied to him.

Three days later, Zheng Yanqing led Shen Guang and Xionghai to Xingyang.

Originally, he wanted to bring the three brothers of Dang Shijie with him. But then I thought about it, Shen Guang and Xiong Dahai were gone, and Zheng Shi'an didn't have a trustworthy person in his hands. In addition, the age of the three Dang Shijie has already passed the age of adulthood, and it seems that they are not very interested in this kind of thing. So after some discussion, Yan Qing still decided to leave the three brothers of Dang Shijie in Gong County.

Xiao Nian also wanted to go, but was rejected by Yanqing.

This is to go to war, not to play in the mountains and rivers, nor to send Wuzhi into Emei Mountain at the beginning.

With a woman, what kind of system does it become?

Although Xiao Nian was reluctant, he also knew that what Yan Qing said was reasonable. Besides, the thin waist and four eyes are only able to be commanded by her.

With tears rippling, Xiao Nian supported Zheng Shi'an and sent Yanqing and the three of them on the road.

Zheng Yanqing and the three of them brought six horses, except for Jade Hoof, all of them were BMW horses bought from the Western Regions.

Xionghai is tall and heavy, and if you add weapons and equipment, a horse may be difficult to bear. Therefore, bringing two more horses can share the burden.

The three of them set off in the early morning and arrived outside Xingyang City at noon.

Yan Qing first went to Anyuan Hall to meet Zheng Renji, and learned that the sect had been assembled, and Zheng Hongyi had already entered the military camp with his generals.

Zheng Yanqing immediately bid farewell to Zheng Renji, took Shen Guang and Xiong Dahai, and came to the outside of Xingyang City.

I saw a small military camp, rising from the ground.

At the gate of the camp, there were two village warriors, armed with weapons, looking weak.

However, they blocked Zheng Yanqing's way and shouted and asked, "Who is it?" ”

"I'm Zheng Yanqing, and please pass Zheng Xing on my behalf, just say I'm here to report."

"Ah, it turned out to be Zheng Gongzi!"

When Xiang Yong heard this, he hurriedly saluted, and one of them ran into the camp to report it. Yan Qing jumped off his horse and stood outside the camp gate, frowning.

actually called me 'Childe', don't you know that I am the Sima in the army this time?

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a burst of women's laughter from the barracks. Yan Qing was stunned, and said in his heart: How can there be a woman in this camp?

He walked towards the camp, but was stopped by a villager.

"Zheng Gongzi, General Zheng said that no one is allowed to enter or leave without his order."

"Get out of here!"

Zheng Yanqing's face sank, and he shouted: "Where is the sound of women laughing in the camp? Do you think of this barracks as a place to have fun? ”

"But ......"

When Xiang Yong was about to speak, Xiong Dahai stepped forward, reached out and grabbed his collar and picked him up alive.

"My brother wants to go in, if you dare to stop it, Lao Tzu will tear you in half."

The swarthy face and the hideous expression frightened Xiang Yong's words to his lips, and he immediately swallowed them back.

Yan Qing strode into the barracks and saw a forest of military tents in the camp. Outside many military tents, women's clothes were still on their belts, and from time to time, the sound of women laughing came out of the military tents. Yan Qing walked to the door of a military tent, lifted the curtain and looked inside, but saw two naked insects entangled together, staging a picture of the Living Spring Palace inside. The man opened his mouth and scolded, "What person, get out? ”

Zheng Yanqing's sword twitched, "The sea, catch him for me!" ”

Xiong Dahai didn't say a word, and walked into the military tent. Let the man shout loudly, but as if he was grabbing a little chicken, he was still in front of Zheng Yanqing's feet.

Yan Qing kicked him in the face.

By this time, the rattling had already alarmed the others.

Many people came out of the tents, some dressed as scribes, some with crooked armor and women's lip prints on their faces.

When I saw this scene, I couldn't help but be stunned!

Zheng Yanqing ignored those people, and shouted: "In the army, it is a crime to declare silver during the day, according to military law. ”

"You let go of me!"

The naked worm cried out loudly, "Who are you to dare to go wild here?" ”

"I joined the army as the Sima of the Sect and was in charge of the punishment in the army. Shen Guang, are you still not going to be punished? ”

"You dare to kill me, do you know who I am?"

Zheng Yanqing ignored it at all and let go of his feet. The naked worm suddenly jumped up, pointing at Zheng Yanqing and was about to open his mouth to scold. saw Shen Guang step forward, without saying a word, he pulled out a short knife, grabbed his hair with one hand, and wiped the horizontal knife on his neck. A stream of blood rushed up from the cavity, and a bloody human head fell into Shen Guang's hands. In an instant, the screams of the women echoed in the camp.

"The sea, hang the heads of the people, and drive all the women in the camp out of the barracks."

Before the words fell, there was a stirring in the camp.

A young man hurried over, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but be startled.

"Who are you that dare to kill people in my barracks?"

As soon as these words came out, Yan Qing knew the identity of the person who came, I am afraid that it was Zheng Yuanshou's eldest son, Zheng Xing.

Yan Qing looked at his angry appearance, unhurried, and arched his hand: "I am Zheng Yanqing, and I joined the army in the marching army of the sect. Dare to ask Your Excellency, but Zheng Xing, the eldest son of Zheng? ”

"You ......"

Zheng Xing's face turned pale, and he suppressed his anger and said: "Zheng Yanqing, although you are a Sima in the army, if you want to kill someone, you should have asked me first." ”

"Sima in the army is in charge of military discipline.

There is no need to be polite in case of trouble, and you have the right to cut first and then play. This is the right given to me by the clan elders, and if the eldest prince is dissatisfied, he can report it to the clan elders. ”

"You ......"

Zheng Xing has been coaxed and held by people since he was a child, so has he been so angry?

He was just about to open his mouth to curse, Yan Qing's eyes narrowed, staring at him, and let him hold the words back into his stomach.

"The eldest prince, I am not only a Sima in the army, but also a lieutenant in the clouds. This expedition is related to the reputation of my Zheng family, and it is also related to the face of the imperial court. You are the chief general in the army, and you should know the seventeen forbidden laws and fifty-four beheadings. It is a capital offense to declare silver in the camp during the day...... And these women, why did they appear in the army? Don't you agree, do you agree to all this? If this is the case, I shall immediately report to the elders of the clan and ask the elders to remove you from your position as the chief general. ”

Yan Qing raised his head, not caring at all about Zheng Xing's face, how iron-clad he was.

"Come on, tie up this madman for me."

Zheng Xing couldn't bear it anymore and shouted angrily.

At this moment, one person from behind the crowd shouted: "I see which one dares to Bang Zheng Sima!" ”

The crowd separated, and Zheng Hongyi appeared in Yanqing's sight with a group of village warriors.

He walked up to the person and said loudly: "I think what Zheng Sima did is not wrong, this military camp is not like a military camp, someone should have rectified it a long time ago." ”

Yan Qing saw Zheng Hongyi coming, and stood firmly on his side, with a smile on his face.

He nodded towards Zheng Hongyi, and then shouted in a deep voice: "Zheng Hongyi, order you to drive these women out of the camp immediately. ”

He knew that a child of a family like Zheng Xing must not be polite.

After all, this is to go on an expedition to fight, not to go on a tour. If the military discipline is not strict, it will not only affect the surnames of the three armies, but also make the Zheng family a laughing stock for others. Yan Qing didn't mind offending Zheng Xing, on the contrary, he wanted to have a fierce conflict with Zheng Xing.

The best result was that he offended Zheng Xing, and the clan elders would not let him go with the army.

Zheng Hongyi didn't say a word, and immediately commanded his subordinates to go to the countryside and expel the women in the camp. There are two major forces in this sect. One is the children of the clan under Zheng Xing, mainly in the scripture hall, and the other is the other group of people led by Zheng Hongyi and mainly in the children of An Yuantang. There were two or three hundred men on each side, and the rest were mostly neutrals. It's just that because Zheng Hongyi is young, he has a slight advantage.

When Hongyi was a child, he also grew up listening to Zheng Yanqing tell the story of the Three Kingdoms.

For the affairs of the military, I am particularly interested.

He is not the same as Zheng Xing. Zheng Xing's martial arts are strong, but when it comes to the art of war, he is far less familiar than Hongyi. In the past two days, Zheng Hongyi wanted to stop these things from happening, but Zheng Xing was the main general. He has the heart to hinder it, but he has no strength left. Now that Zheng Yanqing is here, Zheng Hongyi has suddenly found the backbone. In addition, before entering the camp, Mrs. Cui told him to listen to Zheng Yanqing's opinions more.

Zheng Xing lost face at this moment.

He stared at Zheng Yanqing and Zheng Hongyi angrily, "In this camp, I am the main general...... Come and take down Zheng Yanqing and Zheng Hongyi. ”

A group of children from the clan immediately shouted loudly.

Zheng Xing's people are slightly more, so in terms of momentum, he has the upper hand.

Yan Qing's eyes narrowed and glanced at Shen Guang. Shen Guang didn't say a word, he stepped out, the cross knife in his hand was divided, and after the big horizontal knife forced a child of the clan to retreat, he rushed to a strong man.

This guy shouted the most, but looking at the outfit, he was not the seventh house brother, but should belong to Zheng Xing's guards.

Shen Guang appeared in front of him, and the strong man sneered, drawing his knife and slashing at Shen Guang. I saw a small wrong step at Shen Guang's feet, easily let go of the other party's long knife, twisted his body, and the small horizontal knife swept around the strong man's neck, and immediately retreated behind Yan Qing.

A puff of blood mist splattered, causing the people around Zheng Xing to be silent for a moment.

Although Zheng Xing's martial arts are strong, he has never experienced a battle of life and death after all. As for the people around him, most of them are gentlemen, how have they ever seen such a bloody scene?

Zheng Yanqing said coldly: "Eldest prince, from now on, I will perform the duties of Sima in the army, and I will not spare anyone who dares to disobey military discipline." From now on, at the time of a stick of incense, everyone is dressed and assembles in the camp. Zheng Hongyi, you take Xionghai to inspect the items in the military tents. But all matters that have nothing to do with the army will be thrown out of the barracks for me, and those who block it will be decided! ”

Zheng Hongyi suddenly smiled.

Brother Yanqing is worthy of being a half-edged gentleman who can write the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and when he handles things, he is really quick to cut through the mess!

As soon as he came, he turned the tide around. He hurriedly sang a fat meander, led people with people, and began to check the military tents in the camp.

Zheng Xing's hand was clenched into a fist, and his face was pale.

Yan Qing said to him: "If the eldest prince is dissatisfied, he can immediately report the situation to the clan elders. And you, it's too late to quit now. This is a barracks, not a place for you to eat, drink, and gamble. I am the Sima of the army, and I will not show mercy to those who dare to violate military discipline.
