Chapter Ninety-Five: Heading North

Finally he spoke, he stood up and cleared his throat, and said to everyone: "The barbarians are about to kill Mangyuan City, and they will soon arrive in Chongcheng, you are so idle, go north, hehe......" He looked at An Qiusheng first: "You also have hundreds of people under you, what about you, go to Guangping Straight!" ”

An Qiusheng immediately grimaced, respectfully claiming yes, he nodded with satisfaction, and looked at Qin Tianzhao again, at this time Qin Tianzhao also looked at Qin Wen, Qin Wen felt a little guilty about this son, he owed him too much, but at this time he turned his head again and said lightly: "You go to the city!" ”

Qin Tianzhao nodded, and left with the people without saying a word. When An Qiusheng saw it, he also looked at Liu Fa with a playful face, and then walked away.

Qin Wen finally looked at Liu Fa and said softly: "The grievances between you and them, this is the last time for me, I will not interfere in the future, it is up to you, now I will also give you a chance, go to the city, take your soldiers, I will give you another seven hundred, and give you enough for one thousand." You must block these barbarians for a month and wait until someone from Dali comes, understand? ”

Liu Fa nodded, and after waiting for a long time, it was finally time to soar into the sky. He smiled at this time and said to Qin Wen, "Thank you, sir." ”

Qin Wen smiled complicatedly and walked away. At this time, Liu Fa looked at Qin Wen's back, his face was complicated, but he didn't have time to think about it, so he would go to the barracks tomorrow and go north to the city.

"Clean it up, deal with it here, and carry the injured people to where Xin He is......" Liu Fa looked at the guys lying on the ground, said to Liu Xiaolong, and pointed at An Qiusheng's person, and said with some disgust: "Throw him out!" ”

Traveling is not an easy thing, many things need to be arranged, today Liu Fa also felt something wrong with Liu Xiaolong, if Ye Ruoxin and Liu Ao were put here, he couldn't settle down, so he simply brought them together, in addition, there are more than 700 people who need him to bring, this is also a problem, he led the troops for the first time, it is inevitable that some people will not obey him, and governing the army requires not only force, but also wisdom. Now the 300 men in his hands are obedient to him, and he must find a way to bring these 700 people together and condense them into a single force.

After Liu Fa went back, he immediately told Ye Ruoxin about it, Ye Ruoxin asked the maid to pack up her things at that time, and Liu Fa also said hello to Xin He, Xin He understood that this medical hall should be temporarily stopped, after all, the march still needs a doctor, so the medical hall should be a pharmacy now!

The people under his hands can't all be taken away, and the business here still needs to be taken care of, but he is not at ease with Liu Xiaolong, and then he has an idea, he takes Liu Xiaolong away and leaves Ye Ruoxin behind, and the business here is handed over to Ye Ruoxin to take care of, and Liu Fa is not ready to take it with him at twelve o'clock, all of them stay in the South Prison to protect Ye Ruoxin's thoughtfulness, these days, his house has also made some changes to Xin He, at least it is much safer than before.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. Liu Fa arrived at the barracks early on the second day, and was lighting at this time. Qin Wen didn't have any spare time, just asked him to wait, Weng Tianhu and Xuanyuan Wu were not there, only Nangong Zhinu was here alone, and after inquiring with Nangong Zhinu, he knew that Weng Tianhu and the others had gone north.

Although I know that the imperial court will not take care of the southern prison, but I still need to report it, this move Shaowu Hengan has been planning for a long time, the north is getting more and more chaotic, the south must be suppressed, the south needs a long-term stability, and this stability needs to be a river of blood.

After Liu Lian was transferred out of Haijin, it was also a little difficult to let go in his heart, Haijin's matter had just started, and now let him leave, he was really unwilling, but it was useless to think about it now, although there was always correspondence with Concubine Yun, but missing was always indispensable, this Haijin for a few months, Liu Lian was a little clear, and he now has some beards at the corners of his mouth, and it seems that there is no exaggeration before.

Bumpy all the way, Liu Lian finally came to the imperial capital that haunted him, there was the strongest wine, there were the most beautiful people, and a friend, outside the long pavilion, there were already people waiting, a woman walked around, looking in a hurry, but another man was sitting there leisurely, still holding a pot of wine in his hand.

Liu Jian saw them at a glance, this Yan Shaobing still looked out of tune, but Concubine Yun was also a little clear. Liu Lian stepped forward step by step, as if stepping on Concubine Yun's heart, looking at Concubine Yun, as if she was really looking at a beautiful picture, looking at each other speechlessly, only a thousand tears.

The autumn breeze was bleak, blowing the corners of Concubine Yun's skirt slightly, revealing a pair of beautiful golden lotuses, Liu Lian didn't know what to say, fortunately he had a pair of hands, he brushed Concubine Yun's fragrant shoulders, smoothed the temples for her, and showed a warmth on his face. As if it wasn't so cold anymore, everything became warmer.

It's just that someone who is out of tune at this time sneezed hard, it was Yan Shaobing, Liu Lian rolled his eyes, and entered the pavilion with Concubine Yun. The wine was still warm, it was the small stove brought by Yan Shaobing, Yan Shaobing looked at Liu Jian and the two with a smile, and made another gesture of please: "Come, let's have a drink together!" ”

Liu Lian was not polite, and pulled Concubine Yun to sit down. The little guy on the side brought two small wine cups and put them in front of the two. Liu Lian poured a glass for himself with the wine jug, tasted it, and immediately smiled: "Brother Yan, on such a cold day, it's not very good to go back to the house, it's strange to stay here." ”

Yan Shaobing smiled slightly, and then shook his head: "What's the hurry, there is an old friend coming today......" said and looked towards the intersection again, but in a moment, another carriage and a few knights slowly walked over.

Liu Lian was not stupid, he looked at Yan Shaobing, and asked a little tentatively, "Is it Gongzi?" ”

"Ahem, ahem......" There was a slight coughing sound from the carriage, and then a pair of white hands lifted the curtain, it was Shaowu Hengan's maid You'er. Sitting inside was Shaowu Hengan.

Yan Shaobing waved his hand, and someone brought a screen to cover the autumn breeze for them, Shaowu Hengan looked at the people in the pavilion, and his face also showed a long-lost warmth, and his steps were much brisker at this time. It's rare, he just returned to the imperial capital, and he can see these two people, along the way, seducing and fighting, it's too tired, he really doesn't like it, but he has to do it, but now he can relax slightly.

Shaowu Hengan stepped forward step by step, Liu Jian and the three of them also stepped forward, Liu Jian was just about to salute, Shaowu Hengan grabbed it, and then chuckled: "Why are you so polite, this is not your character!" ”

Yan Shaobing said on the side: "Etiquette is indispensable, you are the prince." ”

Liu Jian also smiled, nodded yes, Shaowu Hengan shook his head, and entered the pavilion with the three of them, Yan Shaobing had already prepared tea for Shaowu Hengan, and he couldn't drink wine, the tea was too strong and hurt his stomach, Yan Shaobing also did a lot of thought.

A few people sat in the pavilion for a long time, from time to time there was a light laughter, and the discordant thing was that there was occasionally a cough, and they hadn't seen each other for half a year, and the more they talked, the less they talked, and the silence finally dispersed.

The night was cold, the clouds shrouded in the southwest boundary, Liu Fa took the soldiers and horses straight to the city, Liu Fa's figure dragged on the horse in the moonlight was extraordinarily long, Liu Fa looked at the three people on the side, Qin Wen asked them to lead the troops to listen to Liu Fa's call, these people are also very good in Liu Fa's personal relationship on weekdays, but if they listen to Liu Fa's call, they are not very comfortable, what they can do now is only not to face Liu Fa.

Liu Fa looked at the sky, it was almost dawn, he was also a little tired, and whispered to a tall man: "Baiyan, let the brothers rest, the sky is almost clear." ”

Jiang Baiyan yawned, hugged his fists casually, and gave the order to go down. The frost was heavy, and Liu Fa just felt that his back was a little wet. He found a tree to sit down, Qing Yunfei also lit a fire on the side, Liu Fan's eyelids were a little sour, he rubbed his eyes, and looked at Liu Xiaolong, Liu Xiaolong was also very unenergetic, this was the first time he had seen such a battle.

"How much grass do we have?" Liu Fa was somewhat worried.

Liu Xiaolong shook his head: "When I came out this time, I only brought half a month's rations, and I could only supply them when I arrived in Chongcheng." "This time, Liu Fa didn't embarrass him too much, and also arranged a relatively easy errand for him, he didn't do anything himself, and it was quite safe, at least he didn't have to go into battle to fight.

Although there is a lot of rations for half a month, but when he arrives in Chongcheng, he is really uncertain, Liu Fan sighed, he didn't understand what Qin Wen meant, this time he went to Chongcheng, although there were more soldiers and horses than Qin Tianzhao, but Chongcheng was mainly in the hands of Geng Changwei, Geng Changwei had always been good to Qin Tianzhao, he went to Chongcheng, and his own supplies really had no way to make it clear.

If it goes on like this, everyone will fight hungry, and it is inevitable that there will be complaints, and now that the army is uncertain, Liu Fa must think of something to do. He now has 300 people under his command, although there are not many, but they are absolutely loyal to Liu Fan, and it is up to them to rectify the army's morale.

Although these soldiers and horses in the South Prison are regular troops, they act casually, plus Jiang Baiyan is good-tempered, and has a good relationship with the soldiers under him, but he is not very good at leading troops, and the other two don't take Liu Fa very seriously, and they still look down on them a little.

It will take a while for the road to the north, and after a while, Liu Fa ordered everyone to set off again, and the seven hundred people in the southern prison were more or less complaining, and the two battalion officers complained the most.

A lean man with a strange mustache spoke first, and he said to Liu Fa very unceremoniously: "General Liu, you can't go on like this, how long have you rested!" ”

The other also spoke, he nodded, and the man's voice said: "General Liu, it's difficult for us to do this, the brothers have a lot of complaints, it's better to stop and rest for a while." ”

Liu Fa looked at the two of them coldly, he narrowed his eyes, and suddenly grinned: "Oh, yes, tell me, what do you want?" ”

The man who spoke earlier smiled: "It doesn't matter if you rest for an hour, you say, Gao Yong?" He pushed the man with his arm.

Gao Yong was overjoyed, and immediately gave a perfunctory salute: "General Liu, what Zhang Lang said is very true, the march has been all night, and the generals are probably quite tired!" ”

Liu Fa smiled, punched the big tree on the side, didn't look at the two of them, walked straight to Jiang Baiyan, and said in a deep voice: "Tell me to go down and march immediately." If you arrive in Chongcheng early, you will miss the military plane, and no one can afford it. So saying, he mounted his horse again, flicked his whip, and went to the rear.

"Brothers, I know you are very tired, and I am also tired, but we must rush to Chongcheng immediately, we don't try to protect the people, but we eat this food, we should do this, otherwise what is the difference with the eunuchs who have no eggs, this is the territory of our southern prison, and some barbarians are not allowed to get involved, do you want to watch them rob our land, kill our families, and enslave our wives and children?" The sound of willow felling was like thunder, and the shouting was particularly impassioned.

After this sentence, there are a lot fewer complaints below, and then look at the three hundred soldiers under Liu Fa's hands, although they are not regular troops, they seem to be full of energy, and the sound of discord is even smaller.

At this time, Gao Yong and Zhang Lang's faces were a little ugly, they didn't expect Liu Fa to give them so face, Liu Fa was still a good old man in the martial arts arena before, but now it has changed so quickly, they are all a little angry in their eyes.

There is a long way to go, Liu Fa's face is a little complicated, and he himself is tired, but this is his only chance, he wants to come out, maybe it can only be like this, looking at the soldiers who are a little spiritual, he turned his horse's head and went forward, Jiang Baiyan and Gao Yong are not very deep in their relationship on weekdays, so he didn't talk much, although he seems to be loyal and duty-oriented, in fact, he also has his own abacus in his heart, but he just doesn't tell others.

Qing Yunfei is now slowly getting used to life here, he doesn't think much about it and eats a lot, but he is not a brainless person, he can see that these people are not very convinced by Liu Fa, he has his own set, so he also wants to talk to Liu Fa. Then he walked to Liu Fan's side and whispered: "General, these people have different hearts and mouths, and they need to be strict in military discipline!" ”

Liu Fa nodded, he understood what Qing Yunfei meant, he really needed this, although these three hundred people have not been trained for a long time, but they have combat power, they are real warriors, Liu Fa has also decided to rectify military discipline, if it goes on like this, if it has not been fought, it will be defeated. He looked at Qing Yunfei and asked a little elegantly, "In your opinion, how to do it is better?" ”

Qing Yunfei thought for a while, and then looked up at Liu Fan: "General, there are too many of these people, in my opinion, at least two hundred people are considered waste wood, and it is most suitable to use them to cut them, we only need eight hundred warriors, and the rest will affect us." ”

Liu Fa gasped, this Qing Yunfei was too ruthless, but he was relieved in an instant, this is the Southern Prison, and the most worthless thing is human life. Liu Fa pondered for a long time, and finally made up his mind to let his eight guards find Xin He.

Xin He looked at Liu Fa, he didn't know what was going on, Liu Fa knew that if he let Xin He do it, it would be the most suitable, he was ruthless, it was useful, and there was no problem with letting him supervise the army. Xin He saw that Liu Fa called him, he didn't say a word, coughed lightly, and spoke first: "Is there anything to find me, General Liu?" ”

Liu Fa was awakened from his contemplation by this light cough, and smiled slightly: "Xinhe, I have something important to look for you, you must like it!" ”

Xin He was a little puzzled, and looked at Liu Fa suspiciously, Liu Fa suddenly stood up, walked in front of Xin He, and said firmly: "You come to be the overseer!" ”

"Ah, no, do you think I can do it?" Xin He smiled bitterly, he had never done it, and he didn't expect Liu Fa to give himself such a chore, didn't he make himself and these soldiers opposed? He quickly shook his head again, and said with a bitter face: "Don't, you still spare me, I can't do it, besides, aren't you afraid that others will say that you are nepotistic?" ”

Liu Fa shook his head and sighed, his eyes were a little fluttering: "Xin He, I'm a little homesick, but with me now, I can't go back to Shangyuan, because the person I offended is too strong, he wants me to die, if I don't have power, don't talk about others, even if it's Qin Tianzhao, the four surnames in the southwest won't let me go." Can you help me? ”

Xin He was silent, Liu Fa is a person who does great things, he sees it, follow him, he will have a way out, he is also very related to himself, after thinking for a moment, he immediately looked at Liu Fa: "Say, what do you want me to do?" ”

Liu Fa smiled and pulled Xin He to sit down: "The undesirable soldiers in this army, the soldiers who were bullied, and the unsociables, you find them all, let them do things under your command, you yourself are good at criminal law, naturally nothing will go wrong, this thousand people army is disheartened, it is still not possible to fight, if you don't rectify it, it will definitely not work." ”

Xin He immediately understood what Liu Fan meant, nodded, and was going to do it, Liu Fan grabbed Xin He, now he doesn't have any official position, and he still needs to appoint himself, he called Gao Yong all over, and appointed Xin He as the overseer back then, although Gao Yong and both of them were a little dissatisfied, but after all, Liu Fan is the main general, and they don't have anything to say, as for Qing Yunfei, he has nothing to say, Jiang Baiyan is also a duty, he just arranges it and fully cooperates with Xin He, and the other two want to make some small calculations, but there is no way, Xin He's temperament is tricky, if he wants to do a good job, he will naturally spare no effort to do it.

There are quite a lot of unsociable people in this army, when Xin He found out, he was really shocked, there were more than 100 people, Xin He was naturally happy, so that a small half of the people were drawn to Liu Fa here, as the saying goes, the new official took office, three fires, Xin He is no exception, a few days, Xin He has a small rectification, some of the soldiers in the army were all punished by Xin He for serious crimes, slowly, the army is no longer as loose as before.

Liu Fa saw it in his eyes and was happy in his heart, this army was finally useful, and Xin He did not disappoint him, these days, Gao Yong and Zhang Lang also softened when they didn't have that kind of temper. However, Liu Fa can see that the two of them are still hidden dangers, and they must find an opportunity to kick them out, otherwise there will always be problems.
