Chapter 106: Walking Horses and Writing Poems

Zhu Youzhen slept very sweetly this night, and was not gently woken up by Qi Meifeng from the window until the third pole of the sun. He rubbed his swollen blisters like goldfish, stretched his long lazy waist, yawned and asked, "Meifeng, what time is it now?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, it's almost noon." Qi Meifeng replied respectfully.

"What?" Zhu Youzhen was so panicked that he got up, "It's almost noon?" Why didn't you call me earlier! ”

Qi Meifeng smiled slightly and said, "The last general listened to His Highness's sleep very deeply, and he didn't dare to disturb it. Your Highness has you packed up? ”

Zhu Youzhen's face turned red, and he hurriedly hid the straw paper used for last night's "detoxification" under the bed, hurriedly put on his clothes, and said embarrassedly: "Okay, okay!" ”

Qi Meifeng pushed the door in with pink cheeks, bowed down and said, "Your Highness, the Inspector is waiting in the front hall for a meeting!" ”

Zhu Youzhen didn't know what Sun Chengzong was looking for him, so he hurriedly left. As soon as he got out of the courtyard, he saw that hundreds of Qi family soldiers were already ready to go, and he felt even more ashamed, and hurriedly asked Qi Meifeng: "Everyone has already gotten up?" Have you had breakfast? ”

Qi Meifeng said with a smile: "My Qi family's army is strict in governing the army, no matter how cold or hot, you must get up at two o'clock. Everyone had already had breakfast, and the Inspector had arranged it properly, and allocated half a month's worth of food and grass, as well as meat to eat! ”

"Did you make any noise last night?" Zhu Youzhen was still thinking about the mysterious figure and the note that said "Be careful all the way".

Qi Meifeng frowned and said, "At the end of last night, in addition to guarding the Superintendent's Office, the General also sent six secret posts and a team of mobile posts in addition to the Executive Office. But there was nothing suspicious about it that night. ”

Zhu Youzhen was a little relieved when he heard this, but he always felt that the figure looked a little familiar, and it didn't feel like he was reminding himself, but like he had bad intentions.

The two came to the front hall as they spoke, and saw Sun Chengzong sitting on a chair with his hands on his cheeks, dozing off, obviously having been waiting for a long time.

Zhu Youzhen hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "There is a labor inspector who has been waiting for a long time!" ”

Sun Chengzong shook his head, hurriedly got up and said, "Your Highness is here!" The old man has lost his appearance, and he hopes that His Royal Highness will forgive his sins! ”

Zhu Youzhen saw that his spirit was a little aggrieved, his eyes were red, his eyes were bloodshot, and his voice was very hoarse, and he asked in surprise: "Master Inspector, didn't you rest last night?" ”

"How can the old man still be in the mood to rest!" Sun Chengzong said with a wry smile, "His Royal Highness had a quarrel with Gonggong Guan last night, and Gonggong Guan was angry, so he rushed to Jizhou overnight, leaving a mess for the old man!" ”

The two sat down to discuss in detail, and Zhu Youzhen realized that after he left last night, Guan Ning was very dissatisfied with Sun Chengzong and the practice of the mud, and made a big noise for more than half an hour, so he had to punish Zuo Guangxian and others in the former army.

Sun Chengzong saw that he was blindly messing around, and gradually became impatient, and finally said angrily: "Changing generals before the battle has always been a taboo in the army!" Zuo Guangxian is a powerful general, and it was also the old man's idea to choose him as the former army commander. Even if he is a little careless in the details, it is so that the former soldiers can get rest as soon as possible, which is the first priority for the general! The old man does not agree to punish Zuo Guangxian now, if the prison master has to be punished, even the old man will be punished! ”

Guan Ningden was dumbfounded. Thinking that Sun Chengzong, as the emperor's teacher, was deeply trusted by the emperor, even Wei Zhongxian himself was afraid of him. He is a dog leg of Wei Zhongxian, how can he have the confidence to argue with Sun Chengzong?

Seeing that Guan Ning was shocked by himself, Sun Chengzong said bitterly: "Father-in-law Guan, now that the enemy is now, we are ministers, we should share the worries of the monarch and father, share the same hatred of the enemy, and work hard to make it together." If he goes to the front line, Zuo Guangxian refuses to fight hard to kill the enemy, and he doesn't care about his father-in-law's speech, the old man will not be able to spare him first! Guan Gonggong should also focus on the overall situation, urge the whole army, and rush to Shanhaiguan as soon as possible. ”

Guan Ning saw that Sun Chengzong gave himself a step, and knew that no matter how much trouble he made, he would not get any results, so he had to promise not to worry about Zuo Guang first. But he also thought that Zhu Youzhen didn't take him as the chief army in his eyes, and pretended to return to Beijing, so he quit.

Guan Ning is the Imperial Prison Army, and he also nominally represents the emperor, so if he wants to leave, will he pay it back? Sun Chengzong had no choice but to persuade him again, and Guan Ning reluctantly compromised, on the condition that he would not see Zhu Youzhen again on the way, so as to save him from pulling his neck and collar.

In order to take into account the overall situation, Sun Chengzong had to nod in agreement. As a result of the discussion between the two, Guan Ning led the left army and the right army to Jizhou first, and Sun Chengzong led the front, middle and rear armies to march later. As for Zhu Youzhen, let him wander slowly in the back, anyway, he won't be able to play a role. Guan Ningtian had already taken the lead in setting off, and they were all about to arrive in Jizhou at this time.

Zhu Youzhen thought that he was indeed a decoration anyway, and he couldn't intervene in how to arrange military affairs, so he had to nod his head and say good, thinking that at least he didn't need to be angry with that guy who was neither male nor female.

Sun Chengzong said again: "Your Highness, the military situation ahead is urgent, and the old man wanted to inspect the defense around Jizhou by the way, but now there is no time." After we walked all the way to Jizhou, the old man led the army to the southern route of Yutian, Fengrun, Luanzhou and Yongping, and asked His Royal Highness to take the northern route of Zunhua and Qian'an, and inspected these two places on behalf of the old man, what do you think? ”

Zhu Youzhen thought that he would go all the way by himself, and without the constraints of this old man, he would be freer. Accompanied by Qi Meifeng and her Qi family, she was not afraid of loneliness, and immediately agreed.

At this time, the army has already replenished its grain and grass, and it is time to set off. This time, Zhu Youzhen did not want to take a car to fight again, but rode a horse and Sun Chengzong side by side, and went out of Tongzhou City together, looking at Jizhou.

Jizhou is more than 200 miles away from Tongzhou, which is much farther than Jingshi to Tongzhou. The military horses of Zhulu carried a lot of grain, grass and baggage, and the marching speed suddenly slowed down a lot. But the sky is not beautiful, just out of Tongzhou City not far away, the sky is snowflakes again.

Sun Chengzong counted the days, and was secretly anxious in his heart, for fear that before he arrived at Shanhaiguan, the Houjin army would break through the pass first.

But he saw that the 500 Qi soldiers who guarded Zhu Youzhen, although they were mainly infantry and carried more baggage, walked with a majestic and high-spirited attitude, which was completely different from the attitude of other Ming troops who complained about hardships and dragged on.

Sun Chengzong couldn't help but praise: "It is worthy of the team brought out by Qi Jiguang, a famous general of my dynasty!" If all my Ming soldiers can be like this, why worry about the immortality! Qi Qianhu is strict in governing the army, and he has the style of an ancestor! ”

Qi Meifeng heard Sun Chengzong's praise, and hurriedly said modestly: "The Inspector has praised it falsely. The ancestors of the ancestors cleared the Japanese and beheaded more than 100,000 people; Later, he went out of the town of Jimen, so that the Mongols no longer dared to covet the Central Plains. How can the last general be virtuous, so far he has not made an inch, how dare he compare with his ancestors? ”

"The so-called back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, the blue is better than the blue, and Qi Qianhu does not have to be too humble! At present, the nine sides are restless, and when the court is employing people, there are merits waiting for you to stand! Sun Chengzong stroked his gray beard and said with a smile, "The morale of the soldiers and horses under Qi Qianhu's command is so high, is there any secret?" ”

Qi Meifeng replied respectfully: "The morale of the army depends on sufficient food and grass, complete armaments, and full payment of military salaries on time, so that the soldiers can have no worries; Second, the more victories you have, the more confident the soldiers are, and the more courageous they will be when they go into battle. And this third point, the last general thinks is the most important, that is, to repeatedly speak to the soldiers in peacetime, so that they can understand what they are fighting for! ”

Zhu Youzhen listened carefully, and when he saw that Qi Jiajun actually understood the importance of ideological and political work, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

Sun Chengzong's eyes also lit up, and he asked loudly: "Soldiers of the Qi family's army, what are you fighting for?" ”

Five hundred soldiers of the Qi family army shouted in unison: "Work together to save the country and help the needy; Report to the country, go down to An Lishu! ”

"Well said!" Sun Chengzong slapped his thigh on the horse excitedly, "The old man is waiting to see you fight bravely on the battlefield!" Qi Qianhu, when the Qi family's army marched, could some military songs be strong? ”

"Soldiers! Sing "Man Jianghong" and let the Inspector listen to it! Qi Meifeng said proudly.

Five hundred soldiers were ordered, and in the cold wind mixed with large snowflakes, while marching forward with firm steps, they sang Yue Fei's masterpiece through the ages: "Angry hair rushes to the crown, leaning on the railing, and the rain rests."

Raise your eyes, look up to the sky and roar, strong and fierce.

Thirty fame, dust and earth, eight thousand miles of clouds and moons.

Don't wait, the young man's head is white, empty and sad!

Jing Kang is ashamed, and it is still snowing; The courtiers regret, when will they be destroyed!

Driving a long car is broken, Helan Mountain is lacking!

Zhuang is hungry for Hulu meat, laughing and thirsty for Xiongnu blood.

To clean up the old mountains and rivers from the beginning, towards the sky! ”

This majestic song has been floating in the snow for a long time, making people's blood boil.

After singing the song, Sun Chengzong stroked his palms and laughed: "Good singing!" Your Royal Highness, Yue Shaobao's "Man Jianghong", have you ever read it? ”

Zhu Youzhen was also immersed in this tragic atmosphere, but the boss was not happy when he heard this. Dare to love Sun Chengzong still feels that he doesn't learn and has no skills. In the previous life, as long as it was Chinese, even elementary school students would memorize this song, and this old grandson was too flat!

He was angry in his chest, and said with a deliberate smile: "Master Inspector, this song "Man Jianghong" is good, but now it is the middle of winter, where does the drizzle come from?" I also have a poem here, which is more in line with the scenery in front of me, do you want to hear it? ”

Sun Chengzong really didn't expect that this letter king Zhu Youzhen usually spoke rudely, but he actually liked to be vassally elegant, so he immediately couldn't help but laugh and said: "The old man listens!" ”

Zhu Youzhen smiled slightly, and immediately recited: "The scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow.

Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, only reckless; Up and down the river, all of a sudden.

Mountain dance silver snake, the original Chi wax elephant, want to be higher than the heavenly public test.

It must be a sunny day, and look at the red dress, which is extraordinarily enchanting.

There are so many delicate rivers and mountains, leading countless heroes to bend their waists.

Regret the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, slightly lose the literary style; Tang Zong and Song Zu are slightly less coquettish.

A generation of Tianjiao, Genghis Khan, only knows how to bend the bow and shoot the eagle.

All the past, count the romantic characters, and look at the present! ”

This goods will be the old man's "Qinyuan Spring? After finishing the recitation, he looked at Sun Chengzong triumphantly.

Who knew that Sun Chengzong stayed on the horse for a long time, and suddenly "plopped", turned over and fell off the horse!
