The generals in Tongguan City have developed good habits of work and rest, get up at the end of every day, and go to the palace to order Mao without hindrance, and today is naturally no exception. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

But the prince disappeared, and the generals were confused and asked the guards to go to the backyard for questioning, but the princess herself came out and said, 'The prince has returned to Beijing this morning. ”

The generals suddenly stared at each other, and Ma Ai asked respectfully: "May I ask the princess, does the prince have any orders, and who is responsible for the defense of Tongguan City?" ”

"Mr. Le is here tonight." Yunshang said politely: "Everyone, please go back, it is important to recuperate from injuries." "All the generals are hanging colors, and they are as serious as Shi Meng and are still unconscious, because she said this.

"Princess Xie." The generals bowed and saluted, "Congratulations to the princess." ”

In the middle of the night, Le Buyi really arrived, and he was accompanied by 30,000 Jingshan reinforcements, and the generals of Tongguan City breathed a sigh of relief.

The next morning, it was changed to the barracks.

When the tent is raised, what the public will see is the Lebu cloth of the lupine scarf...... I don't know what to do on such a cold day, shake a goose feather fan?

Everyone laughed secretly, except for the old man of the Jingshan Army, the rest of the people didn't know much about him, one by one, relying on the great merit of saving the country, how could they look down on a 'weak scholar'? Even if Bo Xian Saiyang, Qin Ba and the others were respectful to him, they only thought that they were acting on orders.

Who is Le Buyi, you don't need to ask to guess what this group of arrogant soldiers thinks, shake the feather fan a few times, and then smile: "In Xia Le Buyi, I was ordered by the king to take over the defense of Tongguan City, can you understand?" The voice was calm and elegant, without a trace of murder.

"Oh," the generals said, "we already knew......"

Le Buyi didn't care, still smiled warmly and said, "You don't ask where the prince has gone?" ”

"I was about to ask you!" The general of the former Shenwu Army shouted: "Lord Wang, his old man is really not interesting, why didn't he even say hello and left first?" "That's right, the hundreds of thousands of Qi troops in the east haven't retreated yet, and the prince is also relieved?"

"Of course the prince is relieved." Le Buyi said with a smile: "He has already handed over Tongguan and Zhugong to his subordinates, what else is there to worry about?" ”

The generals were dumbfounded, and said in their hearts: 'Why is this man so thick-skinned?' In his heart, he was even more disdainful, and said more and more unruly: "You haven't said where the prince is going!" ”

"I know." Le Buyi slowly shook his head and said, "But I won't tell you." ”

"Could it be that you can't fool us?" The generals said angrily, and some irascible people were about to roll up their sleeves and beat people, and shouted vigorously: "Why don't you tell us? ”

"I want to die!" Seeing that they were disrespectful to their teacher, Qin Ba finally couldn't hold it back, waved his intact right fist, and said like thunder: "Pinch you to death!" ”

"Geyue, don't make noise," Le Buyi said lightly, "Don't disturb the interest of the generals." Qin Ba obediently retreated when he heard this, he knew the teacher's methods, and he could definitely cripple these big bosses.

Waiting for Qin Ba, who was blocking his line of sight, to retreat, the generals looked at the scholar indifferently, but found that his gaze became extremely sharp, and the whole person was like a sharp sword out of the sheath, and he couldn't help but lower his head for a while, and no one dared to look at him. I only heard Le Buyi say lightly: "Because I don't want to tell you, I won't tell you!" ”

Everyone's faces froze, and when they saw him pat his forehead again, he smiled apologetically: "I forgot to tell you that my errand will at least wait until the Hanguguan Recovery Association will step down." ”

The reason why they dare to be unscrupulous is that they think that this scholar is just a temporary person, so they don't buy his account, but now this person wants to live here, so it's another matter.

"Now do you have to ask why?" Le Buyi smiled slightly, everyone was like a spring breeze, and the feeling of depression suddenly disappeared. couldn't help but laugh dryly: "Don't ask, don't ask." They were very afraid that this scholar would make an example of the monkey, and suddenly became quite well-behaved, and the appearance of the former and backward was very ridiculous.

Le Buyi still smiled faintly: "I know that you are heroes, and you will not find fault with Liwei, you only need to do two things, we can be safe, when the time comes, you will be promoted to the official position, I will continue to guard the pass here, and the well water will not interfere with the river water." ”

Seeing that he didn't have the idea of killing the mighty stick, the generals couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and secretly said: "This is a good feeling." "No one really has a brain in the water, and they have to keep up with the officials." Then he said a little neatly: "Please command." ”

"First, the defense of the city must not be slackened, your merits can be tied to the head of this Tongguan city, don't do something for the mountain, the success is short." Le Buyi said clearly.

"I'll see." As soon as the generals heard this truth, they kept it firmly in their hearts, and they must not let the cooked duck fly: "Say the second one." ”

"The second is simpler, and it must not disturb the people." Le Buyi smiled and said: "The murderer and rapist die, and the wounding and theft are punished." Restrain your subordinates, don't defy the law, I will do what I say. ”

The generals said in their hearts: "Anyway, I should have received an order to return to Beijing before the year, let the little ones bear with it." He nodded his head and agreed.

"What should you do, what should you do?" Le Buyi lowered his eyelids and said.

"The last will be retired." The generals retreated, so as not to secretly rejoice: finally a comfortable day passed.

If they knew about Le Buyi, or went to the barracks of reinforcements, they would definitely not think so.

There were only a few Jingshan generals left in the house, Ma Ai, Bo Xianyang and Qin Ba, and after everyone saluted Le Buyi again, he gave his intentions: "The prince is determined to eat the Shenwu Army and take Hangu Pass, and we must complete both goals." ”

"Yes!" The crowd replied in a loud voice, never asking him how he could do it. In a sense, they have more confidence in Mr. Le than in the prince.

"The confidentiality clause does not need to be reiterated." Le Buyi said solemnly: "The leaker is dead." ”

"Yes!"

After the initial commotion of the arrival of reinforcements, the city of Tongguan was restored to tranquility.

But the Qi army, who lacked food and clothing in the ice and snow outside the city, couldn't stay, and after just a few days of rest, they began to pack their bags and prepare to return home.

The generals of Tongguan City sent off the Qi people at the head of the city, in fact, they wanted to go out of the city to add some chaos to the Qi army, but these days they have been overwatered, and the entire eastern city wall has become an ice lump, and they can't get out if they want to, so they have to give up.

Full of unwillingness to glance at the crystal Tongguan City in the distance, Zhao Wuji and his generals retreated. I didn't even say a word of 'I'll be back'...... They all knew that they had not seized this excellent opportunity from heaven, and they were afraid that they would never have the opportunity to capture this fortress again.

Leaving behind a place of garbage, the Qi people withdrew their troops, and the tranquility in front of Tongguan City finally returned. When it snows again, cover the garbage, and it will be completely restored to its pre-war appearance. When the snow melts, no one can tell that an earth-shattering battle has just been fought here......

According to historical records, in the Battle of Tongguan, the Qi army sent a total of 260,000 troops to attack the Qin state, while the Qin army participated in the battle with less than 60,000 troops. In the end, under the leadership of Prince Wucheng and Generalissimo Wang Qin Yutian, with a strong city and resourcefulness, through several active attacks and several passive defenses, nearly 50,000 elites of the Qi State were eliminated, and finally forced them to withdraw their troops helplessly, and won the victory of this arduous battle, pulling the Qin State back from the edge of the cliff, and laying a solid foundation for the next complete reversal of the war situation.

But behind this brilliant victory was the death of 17,737 Great Qin soldiers and the lifelong disability of 6,453 Great Qin soldiers...... So much so that many years later, when Qin Lei mentioned this battle, he still had to say with red eyes: 'Nearly half of the loss, the sacrifice ......is too heavy'

Three days later, an embarrassed young man, dragging a dying old man, appeared outside Tongguan City.

The leader of the defenders, fearing that it was a spy from the Qi State, sent someone to skate, arrested the two men, and transferred them back to the city in hanging baskets.

Looking at the two beggars, who were covered in tatters and filthy, the leader pinched his nose and said, "What are you doing?" ”

Who knew that the young beggar was very angry, and his words were amazingly big: "Lone is the king of Yingjun, where is my fifth brother, take me to see him!" ”

The leader of the defenders was taken aback at first, but immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and hurried inside...... Dare to name and find the prince, then nine out of nine is true.

But Qin Lei was not in the city, so he had to be received by Le Buyi, as soon as he saw the old man behind the young man, his face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly asked people to invite them into the mansion to recuperate...... In fact, it was under house arrest.

Then the order was ordered to be sealed, and the matter was like a pebble thrown into the water, and after a slight wave, it quickly calmed down, as if it had never happened.

The days passed, and in the blink of an eye, the generals finally received an order from Prince Wucheng, ordering them to go to Beijing in the New Year and accept the reward. As soon as the days are counted, the generals know that it is too late to lead the army back, and besides, it is very likely that the spring offensive will be launched after the beginning of spring, so there is no need to let the troops run back and forth.

And Mr. Le generously said that he would help take care of their subordinates during their absence. Because he has always not caused trouble, he has already been nicknamed 'Mud Bodhisattva', so the generals are very relieved of him, so they are relieved to entrust their subordinates to Mr. Le, and happily return to Beijing to receive rewards.

In the blink of an eye, the common people of Tongguan City have lived in the new houses that the officers and soldiers helped to repair and even rebuild, and each household was also allocated 80 catties of rice, 100 catties of white flour, 10 catties of pork, 10 catties of mutton, 10 catties of beef, 10 catties of eggs, as well as a number of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and even enough good cotton and cotton cloth for each family to make a new coat, so that they really felt happy after the cruel war.

The people who thought they were going to have a miserable New Year suddenly came to their senses, and they began to put up window flowers, send stove gods, fry salted fish, and sweep the house, preparing for a comfortable New Year. Different from previous years, each family also offered Prince Wucheng's birth card, and bowed respectfully.

They all know that whether it is this house or this New Year's goods, it is all given by the amiable prince, and the people have nothing to repay him, even if they want to kowtow to him, he will not be able to return to Beijing to see it. The simple people had no choice but to use this way to express their gratitude to his 'old man'.

The 29th of the lunar month is the day before Chinese New Year's Eve, also called Little Chinese New Year's Eve. The people set up a wine banquet at home in the evening to 'bid farewell to the New Year', which is the prelude to the New Year. It snowed heavily again today, and for the people, there was no better omen than the 'Ruixue Mega Year', and the whole Tongguan City was full of joy and liveliness.

But in the barracks, which was separated by a wall from the people, there was an air of slaughter, and everyone was told that there was action tonight......

After eating the New Year's dumplings in advance, it was already completely dark, and the officers led the army in full gear and gathered on the school grounds.

Just when the officers and soldiers were talking about each other, crisp footsteps sounded, and Le Buyi accompanied Prince Wucheng, who was dressed in military uniform, appeared on the school grounds......
