At this time, in a sheep intestine trail deep in the mountains in the northeast of the old forest of Kuandian. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Tens of thousands of Dongjiang soldiers lined up in a long red line, withstanding the scorching sun of the autumn afternoon, and were slowly retreating towards the south.

On the east side of the hillside, under the shade of an old ginkgo tree, Mao Wenlong, dressed in military uniform, wearing a Shangfang sword at his waist, sat on a weathered smooth rock, holding a large leaf in his hand, slowly fanning the wind to relieve the heat of this afternoon.

Beside him, dozens of soldiers surnamed 'Mao' who had changed their surnames from Mao Wenlong were accompanying them.

It's a pity that even they~~ have lost their former looks, and they are all hot and sweaty, sticking out their tongues, like leaves that have been wilted by the scorching sun.

Looking at the sheep intestines trail below, the children who were listless and marching under the scorching sun with difficulty, Mao Wenlong's heart didn't know what it was like for a while.

Mao Wenlong really can't figure it out.

I really can't figure it out.

In the past few years, it was not easy for Liaodong and southern Liaoning to fight for their lives, and the brothers pinned their heads to the waistband of their trousers, so that they could return to the hard-won smooth situation at this time, but ~, but the imperial court and Inspector Yuan ...... But at this time, such a big 'moth' was thrown......

The military operation of the Dongjiang headquarters was to go to Laozhai.

It is also Mao Wenlong who has accumulated the greatest strength in recent years, and wants to complete a fatal blow to Laozhai.

For this reason~~, Mao Wenlong led the sons and daughters of the Dongjiang Army, as early as mid-July, they had secretly left Phi Dao, only picked a night march, and had been hiding in the deep mountains and old forests of Kuandian for almost two months.

Even~~, Mao Wenlong also deliberately severed the connection with the rear supply, it was simply a meal and sleeping in the open, and Ru Mao drank blood, just for the concealment of this operation, and strive to take advantage of the Tartars around the village, who were defenseless, and took it in one fell swoop!

But who knows, when Mao Wenlong arrived at the front line of Sanzhai and was about to make a move on the Tartars, he hid in the inner line of Sanzhai, but he informed Mao Wenlong of the news of the imperial court and Yuan Inspector.

Mao Wenlong didn't believe it at all when he heard the news, and he almost wanted to take these first-level sacrificial flags from the insiders.

Because this is in Mao Wenlong's consciousness, this is simply incredible.

How could the imperial court cut off its siblings at this time, completely squandered and wasted the good situation at this time?

However, several insiders reiterated the accuracy of this news to Mao Wenlong hoarsely, and begged Mao Wenlong to verify it to the rear as soon as possible.

Mao Wenlong sensed that something was wrong, and immediately sent someone to contact the rear......

And then......

Sure enough.

These insiders didn't lie, the imperial court actually made this kind of ...... This kind of 'self-destruction of the Great Wall' is a general move.

Fortunately, Mao Wenlong didn't rashly make a move on Sanzhai, if, if it was in case......

Mao Wenlong couldn't imagine the consequences.

As a last resort, he could only lead the elite sons of the Dongjiang Army to quickly retreat to the rear.

Based on Mao Wenlong's understanding of Huang Taiji, if this dead fat man can't seize this kind of opportunity, then it's called a ghost.

It's just that in the general trend, although Mao Wenlong made the right decision, who can know what kind of suffering he endured in his heart?

'Three thousand miles away to find a feudal marquis! ’

Originally, all this was right in front of me, and I was about to take it down and eat it in my mouth in one fell swoop, but how could I have imagined that such a change would happen......

Rao is with a strong heart like Mao Wenlong, and at this time, he is also a little stubborn.

What's worse is that because the weather is extremely hot at this time, a babbling stream that was originally at the foot of this hillside has dried up.

This means that if the sons and daughters cannot quickly walk through this old forest today, today, and even tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, the sons and daughters will have to endure the pain and bitterness of not having water to drink in such hot and dry weather.

At this time, a pro-soldier saw him and hurriedly whispered: "Marshal, Vice General Chen is back." ”

Mao Wenlong hurriedly looked in the direction of the soldier's finger, Chen Jisheng was holding a kettle in his hand, and hurriedly ran over to this side.

"Dashuai, the sky is endless! Two miles away, under a crack in the rock, he found a clear spring. Enough for the boys to drink. ”

As he spoke, Chen Jisheng hurriedly handed the kettle in his hand to Mao Wenlong, "Dashuai, this is what his subordinates just fetched, you can drink some first." ”

Mao Wenlong was already dry, and he no longer shirked, took the kettle, drank a lot, and handed the kettle to the soldiers around him: "Each of you drink some." Mao Youlu, you can take someone to fetch some water now. Bring more people, get more water, and put them at the bottom of the mountain to quench the thirst of the children. ”

"Yes."

Mao Youlu is the higher in the ranks of Mao Wenlong's 'You' generation, and he is already a garrison at this time, just waiting for this battle to be over, how can he be a guerrilla, but he never thought that this battle could no longer be fought.

However, Mao Youlu is a very calm and capable man, and he has won Mao Wenlong's trust, and when he heard Mao Wenlong's order at this time, he didn't dare to show his emotions, so he hurriedly greeted a few pro-soldiers, and quickly ran to the bottom of the mountain to call people and go to fetch water together.

Mao Youlu and the others left, and Chen Jisheng sat next to Mao Wenlong, and sighed slowly: "Dashuai, look at this appearance, we have to rush to the riverside, I'm afraid it will take at least seven or eight days." The point is that Yuanqing is not here yet...... It's really ......"

After drinking some water, Mao Wenlong's spirit has eased a lot, and his mind has regained his composure, and he said slowly: "Jisheng, what do you think about this matter?" Don't be worried. ”

Chen Jisheng couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "Dashuai, this thing, really, it's really hard to say...... At this point, our best opportunity has been wasted. This loss is irreversible. ”

Mao Wenlong shook his head and said, "Opportunity, we can create it again." We have so many good sons, and in the future, there will always be opportunities. ”

Chen Jisheng also understood the deep meaning of Mao Wenlong's words, and hurriedly looked around.

The surrounding soldiers also knew that Mao Wenlong and Chen Jisheng had important things to discuss, plus they all drank some water just now, and their spirits also recovered a little, so they all retreated into the distance and guarded Mao Wenlong's safety from afar.

Seeing the pro-soldiers leaving with interest, Chen Jisheng smiled bitterly and said: "Handsome, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." Over the years, Yuanqing's limelight has been a bit too much. Back then, with the protection of Gonggong Wei, and the benevolence of the first emperor, everything could still be maintained, but at this time, the new emperor ascended the throne, and this thing was ...... It's a little hard to say......"

Mao Wenlong nodded, glanced at Chen Jisheng, casually plucked a dog's tail grass next to him, put the rhizome in his mouth, and continued to wait for Chen Jisheng's next words.

Chen Jisheng hesitated, swallowed his saliva, but still mustered up the courage to say what he really thought.

"Dashuai, the matter has come to this, according to the views of his subordinates, the emperor, the court, and the trusted Inspector Yuan, this is the drunkard's intention is not to drink! I'm afraid, Yuan Qing he, he is just a precedent in front! Once Yuanqing is transferred, the subordinates estimate that it will be our turn......"

Mao Wenlong let out a long breath of turbidity, and his eyes were a little confused for a while, "Your Majesty, I have seen this person before." Looking at his appearance, he should be a person who knows right from wrong and knows righteousness, I can't think of it for a while, why~~, in this critical season, he would make such a choice. Could it be that he really wants to force Yuan Qing to rebel? ”

Chen Jisheng said: "Marshal, Yuanqing will not be opposed. The subordinates know Yuan Qing very well. If Yuanqing wants to rebel, I'm afraid, he won't wait until this time. Not to mention that at this juncture, he will turn his back on Liaodi and go to the frosty northland. Yuan Qing has already given in like this, but he still ......"

At this time, Mao Chenglu of the Chinese army also hurried over, "Marshal, Lao Chen, I heard that you found water?" ”

Chen Jisheng also had a small kettle on his waist, and hurriedly handed it to Mao Chenglu, "Drink some to quench your thirst first." Youlu and they have already gone to fetch water, and they should be back soon. ”

Mao Chenglu's arrival interrupted the rhythm of Chen Jisheng and Mao Wenlong's talking, and neither of them spoke anymore.

"Ahh It's a pleasure. ”

Mao Chenglu drank a lot of water, and the heat on his face dissipated a lot.

Mao Chenglu seems to be a little reckless on the surface, but in fact, this guy is very shrewd, otherwise, Mao Wenlong would not have sent him to deal with the food and salary officials in Denglai and give him such an important position.

After Zhang Pan left, Mao Chenglu is now the 'general manager' of the entire Dongjiang Army.

At this time, he also discovered the subtlety of the situation, and said with a smile: "Marshal, Lao Chen, you are talking about Yuanqing." This matter is really worrying! I don't know, at this time, Yuan Qing didn't know about the decision made by the imperial court. If the imperial court really came to strike first and sent someone to Changsheng Island first, then this matter, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that something big will happen. ”

Mao Chenglu is Mao Wenlong's nephew and the core officer of the Dongjiang Army at this time.

At this time, Chen Jisheng had already understood that Mao Wenlong had already acquiesced to Mao Chenglu joining the rhythm of the conversation, and after a moment, he said: "Chenglu, Dashuai and I are also worried about this matter now." If that Yuan Manzi really came first, then ~~, even if Yuan Qing didn't want to rebel, I am afraid that there would be no room to turn back! ”

"!"

Mao Chenglu couldn't help but spit hard, "I really don't know." What do the emperor and those bigwigs in the court think! The good situation has made them so bad! ”

Chen Jisheng also sighed deeply, "Now that things have happened, even if we hate it, I'm afraid there is nothing we can do." The point is that we are not stationed at the station, and we can't grasp the pulse of the imperial court. ”

Mao Wenlong said: "The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings." Yuan Manzi is really too sharp. If he were there, how could we live? ”

Mao Chenglu snorted fiercely: "Marshal, if not, let's fight against Yuanqing together!" This kind of bird day is really driving people crazy! Not to mention that the food and salary are not given to us, at this juncture, he actually stabbed us in the back! What the hell, how can there be such a thing in the world? How can this battle be fought? ”

"Presumptuous!"

Mao Wenlong couldn't help glaring at Mao Chenglu fiercely.

Mao Chenglu was originally testing Mao Wenlong's thoughts, and hurriedly closed his mouth, silent like a cicada.

Chen Jisheng hurriedly said: "Chenglu, this kind of nonsense can't be said nonsense. We are courtiers of the court, how can we say such rebellious nonsense? ”

Mao Chenglu carefully observed Mao Wenlong's face, and when he saw that Mao Wenlong was not shocked, he hurriedly said: "Lao Chen, I'm talking nonsense." However, Dashuai, Lao Chen, you also know. Yuan Qing has a high reputation in our Dongjiang Army. The brothers below also have a lot of complaints about this matter......"

Mao Chenglu said, continuing to carefully observe Mao Wenlong's face.

Mao Wenlong didn't speak, but Chen Jisheng had a tacit understanding with Mao Wenlong for many years, and hurriedly asked: "Chenglu, what complaints do the brothers have?" ”

Mao Chenglu was already confident at this time, and said: "Dashuai, Lao Chen, you don't know that most of our old brothers have a part in the Liaonan Commercial Bank in Yuanqing. If the imperial court moves Yuanqing, it will also move the root of our Dongjiang River! ”
