The general of the defeated army cannot be brave. This sentence has been an immutable truth from ancient times to the present

If the civil officials misjudge the situation for a while in the court, they may be able to make a comeback; And once the generals lose the battle, most of their lives will be directly lost, and they will have to catch up with countless soldiers. Even if you are lucky enough to save your life, you can not avoid being held accountable for the crime of the defeated general, the most famous one at the beginning of the dynasty is the deeply favored Qi Guogong Qiu Fu defeated 300,000 in a battle, although he died on the spot, but the Yongle Emperor who was angry still sent his family to Hainan.

Jiang Han has always thought that this is very fair. The military generals are knighted for their military exploits, and the hereditary position can be inherited by future generations, even if there is a loser, there is always a way to support the family under normal circumstances. But the shadow of the civil official is one or two generations, so many famous prime ministers in this dynasty, not to mention that the family can be in and out of the three generations of Jinshi, and it is rare to be able to produce two generations in a row, which actually confirms a sentence, the gentleman's Ze, the fifth generation and beheaded, in the vernacular, it is rich but three generations. Therefore, he has always not sought merit, but he has no fault, and he is very cautious in everything, but this time he poked such a big basket!

returned to his general military residence from the lively celebration banquet, although the place was still the original place and the people were still the same as before, Jiang Han still couldn't help but feel an unusually depressed feeling. He is almost in the year of knowing the destiny of heaven, he can be regarded as young among the general soldiers in the towns, his wife stays in his hometown to take care of his sick mother and raise a pair of children, there is only one old concubine by his side to take care of his daily life, and the maid and servant can be counted on two hands, but the pro-soldiers in the outer courtyard have raised a lot.

At this moment, after drinking several glasses of stuffy wine before, he didn't want to go back to the inner house to rest at all, so he simply came to the martial arts arena in the west. The moonlight shone on the ground of the terrazzo bricks, shining on the weapon shelf, which seemed empty and deep. The wine was blown by the wind, and on a whim, he simply walked to the weapon rack, picked up a rarely used imitation Tang Mo knife, weighed the weight and waved it vigorously. However, after all, he drank too much wine, coupled with the vanity under his feet, and the weight of this Mo knife was really too heavy, he finally lowered his arm weakly, and then sighed with a wry smile.

"I don't know what will happen when I return to Beijing."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the voice of a personal soldier outside: "My lord, Lord Cao is here." ”

Although Cao Mi's grade was originally not to the point of being called an adult, Jiang Han didn't dare to underestimate this young man who was younger than his own son at all - you must know that Xu Xun, who was about the same age as Cao Mi, was a demonic existence. Therefore, he hurriedly greeted him and greeted Cao Mi with a strong fighting spirit, and was about to ask him tentatively about his intention, but Cao Mi asked directly: "I heard that General Jiang ran away from the table just now, and came back to practice martial arts in the martial arts arena for a while?" ”

"Uh......" Jiang Han glanced at the pro-soldier with some embarrassment, and secretly scolded people for talking a lot, but then smiled and said, "I'm old, and I can't bear to drink a few more glasses, so I can only run away." As a result, it was also because he drank too much wine, and the old man talked about the boyish madness, and went to the martial arts arena to try it casually, but a strange knife couldn't stand it. ”

Cao Mi nodded lightly at this time, and said with a straight look: "My family saw Jiang Zongbing fleeing from the table, so I asked the lowly to see where Jiang Zongbing went." Since General Jiang has returned to the General Soldier's Mansion, and there is still Haoxing to practice weapons, it can be said that my family will let him be piggybacked. The lord said, if General Jiang still has the ambition to make a comeback, then let the humble post say to you, when you are idle, don't leave the martial arts army behind! ”…,

When Cao Mi turned around and left after bowing deeply, Jiang Han was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly understood, and the previous hesitation was swept away. Under his rule, there was such a great case of rebellion, and he, the chief soldier, could not escape the blame, and he was cut to the people at least and exiled at the worst, and he never thought that there was the possibility of having a crown and belt to live idle. After all, keeping the official body is the hope of a comeback in the future, and unlike the reduction of the post for the people, you can only hope for the amnesty of the next new monarch to ascend the throne, after all, the little emperor is still young, so I don't know how many years it will take.

A few days later, on a small hill more than ten miles east of Pingyu City in Ningxia, Xu Xun, who had arrived first, looked at the small group of three or four hundred soldiers and horses galloping not far away, and couldn't help but take a deep breath. And Lu Hai and the others beside him were not so relaxed, the continuous military orders were passed on, and for a while, the arrows were wound out of the sheath, and there was a tense posture. Until the soldiers and horses in the other side of the carriage stopped at a distance of two hundred paces, and then someone came out to shout, Jiang Bin glanced at Xu Xun on this side, and then took the initiative to dial the horse and go forward. It was a long time before he turned his horse's head and galloped back.

"My lord, it's a fire sieve." After saying this, Jiang Bin added, "That Urusborot is also here." ”

When enemies see each other, they are very red-eyed, which is naturally the case for ordinary people, but for the three people who met this time, at least on the surface, after the initial wary and gradual contact, it seems that they have a very happy conversation for a while. However, only Jiang Bin and Cao Qian, who followed Xu Xun closely to prepare for the translation of the words on both sides, knew that smiling and groaning was not Confucianism's specialty. And the sharp-eyed ones could even clearly see that Urusborot's hand had been playing with the short knife in his sleeve. For a while, both of them only felt that the hair on their backs had exploded.

After some temptation, Huo Sieve smiled thoughtfully: "There is an old saying in the Central Plains, it is called that heroes come out of teenagers since ancient times, so I have admired Pingbeibo for a long time, and it is also a fate given by immortality to meet for the first time today." ”

Huo Sieve knew that Xu Xun was young, but such a young man still amazed him, and for a while he couldn't help but think of the scene when Dayan Khan Batu Munk ascended the throne. At that time, Batu Munk was just a child who was fighting everywhere in Mandu Hai, and now that a few decades have passed, he is old, and Batu Munk is in his prime, but it is not much better. The campaign brought many wounds and old illnesses to Batumunk, but unfortunately it did not dampen his ambition and ambition.

Mongolia and Ming, there will inevitably be a war! It's a pity that he may not be able to see it!

"I've been known to Taishi for a long time."

Although Dayan Khan Batu Munk did not seal the fire sieve as the Taishi, and the Ming Dynasty would never easily reward the title of Taishi, Xu Xun still used such a fire sieve to call himself to the outside world. However, the next moment, he changed his words and said: "From Xuanfu Datong to Yansui Ningxia, your footprints have traveled all over my Ming Dynasty, but all the generals, some are afraid of you like a tiger, some are so hated that they can't eat your flesh and bones, and as for the people, they will be terrified when they hear your name." It's a pity that no matter how brave the generals are, they can't bear the time. Master, you are old. ”

Being told to your face that you are old, you will inevitably be furious if you are replaced by someone else, but who is the fire screen? He squinted his eyes and looked at Xu Xun with a smile, and after a while, he said as if he was careless: "Everyone will be old, just like Pingbeibo is now a young man and is in high spirits, and he is trusted and favored by your emperor, but how long this kind of thing can last, you should know it yourself." But I have lived to be seventy or eighty years old in my life, and my capital has been lived back! ”…,

Urus Bolt also sneered: "You emperors of the Central Plains have done a lot of things!" ”

Jiang Bin and Cao Qian didn't dare to translate such rebellious words, and they wanted to find two more appropriate words, but under Xu Xun's forced gaze, the two had to translate the original words of the fire sieve and a piece of Urus Bolt to Xu Xun respectively. Seeing this Ping Beibo smiling as if he was fine, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"My affairs, don't worry about Taishi and the second prince." Xu Xun smiled, and then asked slowly, "I don't know how the third prince of Jinong in the Khan's court will explain in front of your Great Khan after returning in embarrassment?" ”

After the temptation of each other just now, there was a verbal exchange, and at this time, when it came to business, Urus Bolt put away his previous hostility. Although he was defeated at the hands of Xu Xun before he had the humiliation and death later, it was not without a chance to make a comeback after all. Glancing at the fire sieve, he said in a deep voice: "Balsborot has been defeated, and the call for my eldest brother's son to be the heir has prevailed in the Khan's court. Although he narrowly escaped with his life, his prestige was greatly reduced after the loss of his soldiers. And I sent someone to escort Turuletu back intact, which also made many of Turuletu's suitors feel that he was incompetent. ”

Speaking of this, Urusborot remembered that the fire sieve had told Jiang Bin that he wanted to give Tululetu to Xu Xun, and couldn't help but stare at Xu Xun for a while, and then said with a smile: "Now that there are constant disputes in the Khan Court, the Taishi can just free his hand." Ping Beibo's previous proposal to take advantage of the fire to rob is still too late to take it back! ”

"Take it back?" Xu Xun saw that Huo Sieve looked at him with interest, and he suddenly laughed. After a while, when the laughter stopped abruptly, he said bluntly, "How did I hear that the father Khan, the second prince, is now ordering troops in various departments, and the army will be drawn out soon?" ”

Urusborot's face sank suddenly, and then he sneered: "Pingbei Bomo doesn't think I'm a three-year-old kid, and I'll be intimidated by your deception?" ”

"Whether it is a lie to you or not, the second prince himself knows." Xu Xun glanced at the fire sieve, and said as if he didn't care, "Hengzhi is for my Ming Dynasty, your father Khan has led his troops to cross the border not once or twice, and now from Xuanda to the three towns of Shaanxi, all of them are in strict formation, plus the capital is ordering troops, your father Khan has great ability, and it is impossible to really attack the whole line." But for you, I am afraid that this blow may not be able to withstand it. If the second prince thinks that my previous proposal is to rob while the fire is burning, it will be very easy, let's say goodbye, just because I haven't been here today! ”

Seeing that Xu Xun really turned his head and left, Urusborot only felt a rush of anger to his brain, and the short knife that he had been playing with in his sleeve was suddenly revealed. However, Cao Qian and Jiang Bin had been on strict guard all the time, and at this time, they both unsheathed their swords and suddenly blocked in front of Urusborot. It was only then that the fire sieve opened its mouth again.

"It's only been ten days since the war, dare to ask where did the news of Pingbeibo come from?" [To be continued "This text is provided by.] If you like this work, you are welcome to ◣◥ to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, your support is my biggest motivation. 】
