On the shore of Qinshui, half a month ago, the Ming army and the Mongolian army fought bloodily. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Several cavalry rushed up the hillside and occupied the heights, while the hundreds of cavalry who followed closely behind them headed directly towards the bank of Qinshui not far away. In the last war, the Ming army crossed the river and built a number of docks, although quite simple, but it was able to dock the gunboats of the Ming army's naval division.

What's more, there are actually not many rivers in Shanxi, and there are only a handful of large ships suitable for mooring such large ships as the Ming army's gunboats, with Ye Yingwu's identity, as long as he wants to go north or south and take the waterway, he will inevitably take a gunboat, so it is conceivable that the Mongols have arranged a lot of spies at the big docks everywhere, and Ye Yingwu's every move will inevitably be explored, but this dock is very hidden, and since the last time the Ming army crossed the river, the dock has actually been abandoned. Even if he is a spy who is good at disguising himself, there is no way to stay in this deserted dock.

A gunboat was already waiting on the dock, and when he saw those cavalry coming quickly, the boat also lowered its pedals, and a young general hurriedly stepped up to meet him: "Xia Song, the commander of the Chenda River Division, see Your Majesty!" ”

The first knight was the Ming Emperor Ye Yingwu, and while restraining the war horse, Ye Yingwu looked at the general of the water division. Xia Song is the son of Xia Gui, not to mention the general, and has always been Zhang Shijie's right-hand man in the former Song Dynasty, and he has fought side by side with the Tianwu Army. Later, the contradiction between Ye Yingwu and Jia Nidao intensified, and Jia Nidao dispatched Xia Song to lead the remnants of the two Huai Water Divisions back to Lianghuai and rejoin the Huai army. Huai Jun is the army of Jia Rudao's family, and Xia Song is Xia Gui's son, although he was reluctant, he still went back obediently.

Later, the town navy went north, and the most elite Mongolian cowardly Xue army fought a decisive battle in Huaibei, Xia Song in that storm with amazing perseverance sword slashed the retreating generals, led the two Huaishui division of the warship to support the town navy, so that the Mongolian army had no way to gather all the forces to deal with the town navy, plus the town navy can retreat by water at any time after the wind and rain stopped, so the cowardly Xue army can only return in a huff, although in that battle both sides have casualties, and there is no winner or loser, However, to a certain extent, it has been proved that the town navy has the ability to compete with the cowardly Xue army, and it has also inspired the hearts of the military and the people everywhere, so that the cowardly Xue army, which has been hanging over the heads of the military and civilians of the Southern Song Dynasty, has dissipated.

After the Huaibei War, the Southern Song Dynasty soon declared its demise, and the Ming Dynasty was established. Because Li Tingzhi was killed in the previous battle, Xia Gui was in charge of the Huai Army alone, and he knew that the previous Huai Army grabbed credit, and the conflict with the town navy would inevitably make him have a bad time, plus the imperial court already had the intention of reorganizing the Huai army, so Xia Gui simply transferred power to the local area and served as the local governor, and Xia Song because of the previous experience of supporting the town navy and fighting side by side with the two Huai Water Divisions and the Tianwu Army, so he was not rejected too much, and soon entered the Zhenjiang Prefecture Water Division, the Ming Northern Expedition, The formation of the Great River Water Division is responsible for the back and forth of the naval warships in the Beidi water network, Xia Song, who has always performed well, naturally became the best choice for the commander of the naval division, and later broke out in the Battle of Qinshui, Xia Song personally commanded two gunboats to support, which also proved his ability not to be alarmed.

"Xia Qing's family is flat," Ye Yingwu turned over and dismounted, "I will return to Luoyang, and then return to Nanjing, all the way, and I have to ask Xia Qing's family." ”

Xia Song immediately gave up his hand; "Please rest assured, Your Majesty!"

Ye Yingwu nodded, the Ming Navy is rampant in the North and South Oceans, and the Daming Navy Division is even more free to enter and exit the rivers of the world, so Ye Yingwu doesn't have too much worry about this, if he can make any mistakes under the protection of the Daming Navy Division, then the Ming Dynasty is about to lose the country, even if it is now a hundred dares to those Mongols who are plotting against each other in the dark or the rest of the enemies who hate Ye Yingwu to the bone, they don't dare to do it on the water.

Ye Yingwu's return to Beijing this time happened suddenly, and war could break out at any time on the front line, so Ye Yingwu didn't want to attract the attention of the Mongols, but just carried two hundred cavalry to the south, and the rest of the armored cavalry remained on the front line. But compared to the tens of thousands of troops to protect when he came, when Ye Yingwu left, in addition to the brocade guards in the dark and the six door guards, there were only two hundred cavalry, even if Zhang Shijie was bold, Ye Yingwu was not allowed to take such a land adventure, so he did not hesitate to hand over this escort task to the sailor, after all, there are sailor gunboats here, and everyone can rest assured.

Ye Yingwu didn't say anything about this, originally the sailor went all the way down the river, but it was also fast, not to mention that Ye Yingwu also had to weigh his position in the hearts of the Mongols, and it was indeed a bit risky to go directly by land, such a risk even the current Ye Yingwu and Daming could not afford it.

Ye Yingwu turned around, looked at Zhang Shijie who walked forward behind him, and said in a deep voice: "Aiqing, send you a thousand miles, you must say goodbye in the end, and you and I will be separated here where you and I once witnessed the victory of the Ming Dynasty." ”

Zhang Shijie threw his hand at Ye Yingwu, and Ye Yingwu personally stepped forward to help him up, looked at Zhang Shijie and said solemnly: "I will hand over all the more than 200,000 main forces of the Ming Dynasty to Aiqing, I hope Aiqing will not let me down, if Aiqing has anything difficult to decide, you can discuss with Jun Shiqing's family first, and Yao Shu Yao Qing's family is also a loyal person, Aiqing should take these two as his left arm and right arm, so that the last battle of the Ming Northern Expedition can also be won beautifully!" ”

Looking at Ye Yingwu, Zhang Shijie's lips trembled slightly, and after all, he didn't say anything, just bowed his hand deeply. Ye Yingwu is His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he is Zhang Shijie's brother-in-law, who Zhang Shijie watched grow up, and Zhang Shijie has been able to get to this point, and Ye Yingwu's full support also has an irreplaceable relationship.

Ye Yingwu is a relative who needs to be taken care of by him, and he is also the emperor who trusts him, thinking of this, and thinking about when he was down a few years ago, Zhang Shijie couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion, and he understood that he could now rise to the top and even be the head of the ministers.

Now that Ye Yingwu has handed over all the main forces assembled by the Ming Dynasty, including his own Hundred Battles Guards, Zhang Shijie understands what kind of trust and entrustment this is.

Tianwu Army, Zhenjunjun, Xuanwu Army, these veterans who have experienced the baptism of previous wars, the Lianghuai Army, the Zhendong Army, and the Jinghu Army, which are often used as back-ups on weekdays but have always wanted to establish meritorious new armies, plus the Praetorian Guard Army and the Shenwei Army, the inner and outer arch defenders of the Ming capital, it can be said that now in addition to the local Xiang Army and the two main armies of the Shence Army and the Tianxiong Army that confronted each other in Hexi and Haidu, all the forces of the Ming Dynasty are already here.

What Ye Yingwu asked Zhang Shijie to fight was a magnificent national battle that was enough to be remembered in the annals of history, and it was a decisive battle that finally overwhelmed the Mongols!

This is also the reason why Ye Yingwu was reluctant to return to Taiyuan Mansion before, because such a national war is the result of all Ye Yingwu's efforts for so long, and it is the result of the three-hundred-year dream and three-hundred-year blood and sweat of countless Chinese people, Ye Yingwu wants to witness this victory with his own eyes and wants to personally command this victory.

And now he has given this right to Zhang Shijie.

Zhang Shijie did not say any empty words of "must live up to the mission", but just expressed his answer with a deep arch.

The victory that His Majesty wants, the minister will definitely offer!

Ye Yingwu seemed to understand what Zhang Shijie meant, laughed and flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked onto the warship, chanting a poem loudly. Zhang Shijie listened slightly, and the chanting echoed in his ears.

The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying, and the warriors are guarding the Quartet!

――――――――――――――---

Luoyang, Xinggong.

Although there is actually only a big river separated from Shanxi, Luoyang does not seem to have come out of the hot summer, the lotus in the pond is still in full bloom, although this lotus is not as good as the Luoyang peony in the world during the Qingming and valley rains, but it also has its own uniqueness.

In particular, this Luoyang Palace was originally rebuilt from the palace of the previous dynasty, and the lotus flowers planted in the palace are also excellent varieties selected by the world, which are not inferior to the lotus flowers of the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River.

The evening breeze blows through the water, bringing bursts of warmth, and the lotus flowers are gently swaying along the wind, and the evening dew gradually condenses in the last touch of the sunset that is about to dissipate, flowing down the pale pink petals and dark blue lotus leaves, crystal clear. Even the lotus leaf swayed slightly, but I don't know if it was because of the heavy wind or the heavy dewdrops.

A bright moon in the sky has climbed up, with the brilliance of this bright moon, you can't see the stars in the sky, but occasionally a few bright stars still emit their own light.

Luo Sha gently swayed in the wind, and the figure sitting on the railing by the water pavilion, even after the cover of this layer of Luo Sha, can vaguely see the grace outlined, the figure is holding a book in one hand, and the other hand is holding a small fan slowly. Incense rises from the copper furnace and drifts in all directions with the wind at the bottom of the fan, making this water pavilion look like a fairyland on earth.

The layers of curtains were lifted, and before the people arrived, the crisp and beautiful voice had already arrived: "Sister is reading by the railing, and the incense is ethereal, I am afraid that Luo Shen Lingbo and the goddess will go down to earth, but that's it." ”

It was Gesang's voice.

"Ah, my sister is here, sit down here, the lotus leaves here are very beautiful!" Hui Niang put down the book in her hand and stood up with a smile. She is about the same age as Gesang, but Gesang entered the palace late, so she consciously called her "sister", and Huiniang did not object, after all, there are no rules, and the harem is such a rule of seniority, Gesang wants to call it that and go with her.

The summer is hot, and in this deep palace, the two of them are actually very cool in their clothes, and a light veil is actually draped on the outside of a layer of gowns, and even two lotus arms and the yearning snow white on the chest can be faintly seen.

"I didn't expect my sister to read a book, but in fact, she was looking at this lotus." has been with Hui Niang for a long time, and the two are already very familiar, and it doesn't matter if they joke with each other.

Hui Niang seemed to have been told that she was in her heart, and her pretty face was slightly red, but she immediately calmed down and pinched her waist playfully: "What evidence do you have?" You can't falsely accuse anyone. ”

"Sister of this book is almost the thickness of this book yesterday, and my sister has been sitting in this water pavilion for a long time today, why is it still this same thickness?" Gesang pointed to the open book without hesitation and said, but then she understood something, blinked and said, "Oh, I know, my sister didn't read the book either, nor did she read the lotus, I'm afraid I'm thinking about people!" ”

"I want you to say it!" Hui Niang's face suddenly turned red, and she waved her little fist at Gesang angrily, and was about to pounce, but Gesang turned her waist lightly and avoided her, but Hui Niang did not stop, and then turned to pounce. In this huge harem of the palace, in fact, there are no outsiders except for the two of them's personal servants, so they are not afraid of being laughed at.

The two of them fell over on the soft couch next to them, gasping slightly and parting. Although it was night, after all, it was still in the summer, a little fighting, there was already a thin sweat on the body, Hui Niang looked at Gesang Khan's dripping forehead, and couldn't help but smile and said: "My husband used to say that Sister Gesang is 'ice muscle and jade bones are clear and sweatless', and I can see it today, and the snow lotus in Tibet also has a time to sweat!" ”

Knowing that he had "offended" the sharp-toothed Hui Niang just now, Gesang sighed helplessly, and stretched out his finger to the sky: "The summer in Tubo is not so hot, and even the top of the snow-capped mountains in Tubo, where does the summer come from?" ”

"That's right," Hui Niang nodded, a little yearning, "In this life, if I could go to Tubo to see the snow-capped mountains and beautiful lakes that you said." ”

Gesang instructed the maid to boil water and bathe, and at the same time reached out and pinched Hui Niang's cheek: "The husband loves you so much, go to the husband to be coquettish, the husband will definitely agree, maybe he will accompany you personally." When the time comes, who can overcome the grace in this harem? ”

"Husband, ・・・・・・" Hui Niang heard these two words, a little distracted, and her eyes were erratic, but they mainly fell on the lotus pond, and the lotus pond is the north of this courtyard, north of the lotus pond, hundreds of miles away, there is a figure that cares day and night.

I don't know if he is still correcting the recital under the lights at this time, I don't know if he is still taking the lead in the front as the battle report said, but I just hope that one day, preferably one day, he will be able to come back safely.

I don't know if I don't think it, Hui Niang's eyes are already rolling with crystal tears, she gently held Gesang's hand, and murmured: "You said that the battlefield is so dangerous, why does he want to go by himself, don't those soldiers have no way to defeat the enemy without him?" ”

Gesang also fell silent, it is impossible to say that she doesn't feel anything about Ye Yingwu, after all, the two have had the romance of drinking under the moon, and they have also been married to Wushan together, Ye Yingwu is the first man in Gesang's life, and the first man who really attracted the snow lotus of Tianshan and made her bend her waist for it, but compared to Hui Niang's unconcealed thoughts, Gesang subconsciously hid this feeling in his heart and made himself look calmer.

"The husband is definitely not a reckless person, let alone a bloodthirsty person, since he personally led the team to kill, it must be when the situation is already irreparable, and in the end, he was not unscathed, and successfully defeated the Mongols?" Gesang said softly, when he said that Ye Yingwu was fighting on the battlefield, his hands trembled unobediently.

It is impossible to say that you are not worried or worried.

Although Hui Niang sighed in her heart at this time, her delicate temperament had not changed, and she suddenly felt a slight change in Gesang, and took out a handkerchief to gently wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, while revealing a slightly bitter smile: "Actually, my sister is also very concerned in her heart, otherwise why when it comes to husband, this hand is trembling?" ”

Two blush flowers floated on Gesang's pretty face, the girl was silent for a moment, and finally nodded solemnly, she knew the answer in her heart very well, so she did not hesitate to express it. However, Gesang still shook off Hui Niang's hand a little resentfully: "You are a Hui Niang, I am kind enough to comfort you, but I am here to set my mind!" ”

At this moment, the footsteps sounded again, and Hui Niang only said that it was the maid who came back to report, and laughed softly: "You said that bastard who rushed outside and didn't care about life and death, how did he hold our hearts firmly in his hands?" ”

It's just that Gesang, who was sitting opposite her, had a look of surprise on his face.

Hui Niang looked at Gesang a little strangely: "What's the matter, don't be afraid, now there are only the two of us here, God knows what I just said, you know and I know, as long as you don't say it, it is impossible for the husband to know even if he has a hundred ears, unless he himself is standing in the ・・・・・・ now"

Looking at Gesang's ghostly expression on the other side, Hui Niang subconsciously did not continue, just tilted her head slightly, and then turned pale.

"Who told you that there are only two people here, a certain little Huiniang?" Ye Yingwu looked at her for a long time, like looking at the prey in his mouth.
