Yang Bao was looking at Wang Lixin, and Wang Lixin was not looking at Yang Bao.

The Chinese army of the Tianwu Army did not expect that they would encounter the soldiers stationed in Ezhou on the road, and the soldiers stationed in Ezhou did not expect that the Tianwu Army would really go north.

Since the last scandal caused by the garrison soldiers in Zhenjiang Prefecture, the garrison garrisons maintained by the Southern Song Dynasty in various places have been controversial by the government and the opposition. And among them, the soldiers stationed in Ezhou, who are barely in a better situation, naturally have to accept the eyes of the world, and they naturally will not forget that all this is the masterpiece of Ye Yingwu of the Tianwu Army, so the soldiers stationed in the garrison will naturally not have a good face when they look at the Tianwu Army.

And not to mention the Tianwu Army, these soldiers who fought in blood and fire, when did they put these garrison soldiers in their eyes?

"I don't know what this general is called?" Wang Lixin slowly rode forward, at this time he spoke first, not to be soft, but at this time, it was a long shot, and this delay in time may lead to the annihilation of the Yingzhou Navy Division.

"Don't stop, keep going!" Yang Bao roared behind him, unlike the soldiers stationed in Ezhou, although the roads were muddy, the middle army of the Tianwu Army was still running forward, this kind of distance was not a big deal for the middle army of the Tianwu Army who had conquered the journey from Gwangju to Suizhou.

The Chinese army of the Tianwu Army accelerated its speed, and the soldiers stationed in Ezhou, who were originally slow and reluctant, couldn't help but speed up their pace after a short period of shock. Yang Bao breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Wang Lixin:

"Please forgive me for being negligent, in the Xia Tianwu Army, the army is commanding Yang Bao, and the general's flag is the word 'Wang', but the Hunan pacification envoy, Ezhou Zhizhou Wang Xianggong?"

Wang Lixin couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he was taken aback by the elite level of the Tianwu Army, those soldiers who were still moving forward quickly on the muddy road couldn't see the slightest tiredness, and the spears that pierced the sky with handles were lined up in a neat array, and they were not confused at all because of running.

After a moment's hesitation. Wang Lixin nodded: "That's right, it's Wang Lixin, but he is just the governor of Ezhou, and he can't afford to be called 'Xianggong'." ”

In the Song Dynasty, the title of "Xianggong" was actually very widely used. Even if it is a small county, it is not a big deal to call it "Xianggong". However, in the eyes of most scholars, the narrow sense of "Xianggong" is actually only an honorific title for those who are high-ranking and powerful in the dynasty (such as Jia Yidao) or highly respected (such as Jiang Wanli).

Yang Bao is undeniable. Just looking ahead, it seems that there is still the meaning of urging the soldiers to speed up their pace, and there is also three points of anxiety in the words: "This time the left compartment of the Tianwu Army is on the north bank of the Han River, and the front compartment is going north along Tianjia Town. ”

Wang Lixin nodded: "The defense of Xiangyang is inseparable from the blockade of the river by the sailors, but few people in the surrounding state capitals can see through it, and there can be Ye Envoy Jun and Tianwu Army." A certain heart is also a lot more stable. It's just that I don't know if I can see the famous Ye Envoy Jun himself? ”

Yang Bao frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "The last time you were injured on the bank of the water, now you have just recovered, and it is not easy to lead the army to the battle. Not to mention ······"

"What's more?" Ye Yingwu was injured Wang Lixin also heard about it, and naturally guessed that Ye Yingwu was unlikely to go out with an injury, and now he was vetoed by Yang Bao himself, and he was still inevitably disappointed in his heart, but Yang Bao seemed to have other meanings, so Wang Lixin couldn't help but be curious.

"What's more," Yang Bao clenched the reins. "You don't need to make a gentleman yet, just a Mongolian Tartar, it's enough to have so-and-so!"

Before the words fell, this somewhat flamboyant general of the Tianwu Army had already rushed into the fluttering wind and snow. Thin snowflakes fell on his armor.

Wang Lixin was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, his equestrian skills were not excellent, and he had not yet galloped up to catch up with Yang Bao, or in other words, he was not even very proficient in military affairs. This time it is difficult for some strong people to go north.

However, he has no choice, he has the ability to govern the country with a full stomach, but he was born at the wrong time, and it is difficult to perform in this troubled world. This is not only my own sorrow, but also the sorrow of countless scholars. The only way is to hurry up and put an end to this crazy chaotic world!

In the wind and snow, Wang Lixin looked at the long dragon heading north and couldn't help but smile.

————————

Ye Yingwu leaned back in his chair and fell asleep.

Yang Su paced back and forth beside him, and he didn't know how long he had been holding on to the news sent from Jiangnan and Ezhou in his hand, but Yang Xu had never made up his mind to wake up Ye Yingwu.

This big battle came too suddenly, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, which was beyond everyone's expectations. The beginning of all this was actually just that Lu Wenhuan took advantage of the Chinese New Year's Eve to sneak out of the city and was repulsed, but now no one thought that the matter was getting bigger and bigger, first the Mongol infantry cavalry besieged the camp of the Yingzhou sailors, and then on both sides of the two Huai.

Along the entire Mongol and Song Front, a bloody battle that would decide the outcome was about to break out.

Yang Xu has vaguely felt that this time is no longer as simple as before, whether it is Macheng, Huangzhou or the battle of Gwangju later, in fact, it can only be regarded as a peripheral battle of the Battle of Xiangyang, the two sides did not invest all their strength, and even the Tianwu Army itself is also in the way of round battles to let each compartment play in turn.

But this time it was different, Ye Yingwu immediately mobilized all the forces of the Tianwu Army, and Li Tingzhi led the elite of the two Huai to attack the west at any time, ready to approach the west at any time, and the Yingzhou Navy Camp was already in full swing.

Counting the Xiangyang army that provoked the whole battle and Ah Shu, who came to the front line, all the troops on the Xiangyang front line have actually been involved in the war.

It was different from any previous war when the Tianwu Army went north.

Yang Xu's footsteps became heavier and heavier, and Ye Yingwu's snoring suddenly stopped, and he opened his eyes suddenly, the exhaustion on his face had not yet dissipated, but there was an unconcealable light in his eyes: "Su Niang, what news is coming?" Why did you fall asleep ······"

Looking at the letter handed over by Yang Xu and the caring gaze, Ye Yingwu didn't feel a tingle in his heart, he didn't let them worry like this once or twice, but he couldn't do anything, and the battle of Xiangyang inevitably kicked off after all.

He stood on the middle line of Mengsong's fate.

"Is there any news from the Yingzhou Sailor side?" Ye Yingwu glanced at ten lines, and there was still nothing important in front of him, but to Ye Yingwu's surprise, Wang Lixin actually pulled out a team of 20,000 foot soldiers to go north.

But this is good, at least this army that came out of nowhere can be regarded as a bargaining chip that can strengthen the battle of Xiangyang.

"I just don't know when I will go north to witness this battle." Ye Yingwu muttered.

Yang Xu was taken aback: "Husband, what did you say?" ”

Ye Yingwu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Nothing." People are iron and rice is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry and panic, so let's eat first. It's useless to wait from here. ”

Although he didn't understand Ye Yingwu's very "modern" slip, Yang Xu still understood what he meant. Smiling, he went to Zhang Luo first.

It seemed that I felt a different atmosphere, and all four people in the back house came. Ye Ying frowned slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything. Lu Wanyan hurriedly caught up, with a sorrow that could not be dissipated between her eyebrows.

Ye Yingwu smiled reluctantly and gently hugged Lu Wanyan's shoulder: "What's wrong?" Is there something sad that can't be put down? Speak up and listen. ”

Lu Wanyan lowered her head, but she didn't speak, and Qiqin, who was a little immobile, leaned on the table and laughed softly: "Husband, Wanniang can't rest assured, isn't it you." ”

Blinking, Ye Yingwu personally pulled out the chair in front of him: "Come, lady, please sit." ”

Lu Wanyan glanced at her prettyly, but she was not in a hurry: "The husband has not sat down, and the concubine does not dare to sit down easily." ”

Laughing. Ye Yingwu didn't say anything, and sat down directly. Several people sat down one after another, and the maids were very eye-catching to bring the sumptuous meal to the table. Lu Wanyan just looked at Ye Yingwu, but did not speak.

Lu Wanyan didn't speak, sitting on one side, Qiqin, who was actually more detached, just gently played with the chopsticks in her hand, and Qiqin didn't speak, just entered the door just now, but there was only a foothold, and Qiong Luan naturally kept silent. As for Yang Xu, he was even more breezy and calm, without the slightest sense of imminent parting, after all, no matter whether Ye Yingwu was on the expedition or not. She'll be there for you.

Only Wang Qinghui remains.

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, Wang Qinghui sighed secretly in her heart, although these sisters didn't seem to take the parting of the expedition very seriously on weekdays, and they didn't even take it to heart. But when it really came to this time, they were dull in their hearts one by one, and no one wanted to speak first. In desperation, Hui Niang could only say softly:

"Soon to go north again?"

Ye Yingwu didn't answer directly, but directly grabbed a chopstick dish and put it in Wang Qinghui's bowl on the right hand: "Come, Hui Niang, eat more." You still need to grow this little body. ”

Blocked by Ye Yingwu's words, a trace of anger flashed on Wang Qinghuiqiao's face, and she subconsciously straightened her waist: "Who said it was a small body, if you don't believe it······ Just ······"

"What's the matter?" Ye Yingwu laughed evilly, Qiqin, these female goblins are not easy to flirt, and they are still able to catch Wang Qinghui by flirting with them.

Wang Qinghui didn't speak, just buried her head in eating, obviously she also knew very well that Ye Yingwu wanted to be a routine after a routine, so it was better to ignore it. And Lu Wanyan on the side smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Husband, why bother Hui Niang now?" ”

The chopsticks gently tapped the rice bowl, and Ye Yingwu said with a smile: "May the beauty smile and blush, and I don't want the hero to be empty and sad." is a good time, and the pleasures of the boudoir are not exhausted, is it possible to let someone sit here and act as a hypocrite in a dignified manner? ”

Lu Wanyan was stunned, it stands to reason that as an eldest woman, she should point out Ye Yingwu's words and deeds of disrespecting sages, but Lu Wanyan remained silent. Wang Qinghui, who has always positioned herself as a female disciple of Confucianism, glared at Ye Yingwu fiercely.

"Husband, but the big war is coming?" The atmosphere was a little lively, and Qiqin, who had always looked at everything very lightly, was the first to ask.

Ye Yingwu said with a smile: "What's the matter if the war is coming, there is a certain person here to support it, this day, it can't collapse, you can rest assured." Tens of thousands of soldiers in the Tianwu Army, and nearly 200,000 troops gathered along the entire Han River, are not dry food. ”

"However, the husband is not the slightest sure, what the concubine said is right?" Qiqin continued to speak softly, her voice very soft, but with an irresistible force.

Ye Yingwu was silent, and the eyes that focused on him became more complicated. For these people who share the same bed, Ye Yingwu is really difficult to lie. Yang Xu saw that the situation was wrong, and just wanted to stand up and play a round, but Ye Yingwu spoke first:

"That's right, for this battle of Xiangyang, there is no certainty at all. It turned out that the entire Tianwu Army coordinated the battle situation, and no matter how much it fought, it couldn't run out of the Tianwu Army and this acre and three points of land. But this time it was different, from Sichuan and Shu all the way to Lianghuai, a little careless. It is very likely that we will fight the Tartars in an all-over battle, and it is very likely that millions of troops will be swept in in a single thought. Even if the Tianwu Army is elite, it is difficult for a certain person to ensure that he can escape in the clash of millions of people. ”

After a moment of silence, Ye Yingwu continued: "Maybe you don't know, but you understand it very well. Ah Shu has actually not used all his strength, it is more of a temptation for the Tianwu Army, even if it is a temptation again and again, it still makes us tired, not to mention that this time we have to face the 150,000 main force of Ah Shu. It is the Lu family brothers who are guarding Xiangyang, and they will be captured when they see that they are not saved······"

"Husband······" Lu Wanyan stretched out her hand and covered Ye Yingwu's hand, "Husband, but you are Ye Yuanjun of the Tianwu Army, if even you are so afraid." Isn't that really the slightest hope of victory gone? ”

Ye Yingwu shook his head: "So-and-so is not afraid, he is just stating a cold and cruel truth." However, a certain is still confident that he can fight his way out of this thousands of troops. Even if the army is really defeated, a certain has already arranged the back road, and this country will not be so simply lost after all. You don't have to worry too much, stay here in Xingzhou. ”

As if remembering one thing again, Ye Yingwu looked at Yang Xu: "Su Niang, this time you are in Xingzhou, responsible for the transmission of news from all over the place, and it can be regarded as sharing some pressure for Qiongniang, and even the back compartment has to go out." It's up to you to defend here. ”

"No!" Yang Xu slapped the table and stood up, "The concubine doesn't agree." ”

Ye Yingwu's face sank: "There is nothing to agree or disagree to discuss." Whatever so-and-so says is what it is, but this is still Yefu, you are so-and-so's wife and concubine. The husband is the wife, and you have to do what you want to do! ”

Yang Xu's delicate body trembled slightly, and there were tears in her eyes: "What husband is a wife, why didn't you say it, when did you say it?!" At this time, let me stay, what kind of ability. In any case, I am also the commander of the Six Doors and the Brocade Guard. You don't have the right to let someone stay, and whoever you send to coordinate the exchange of information from the army is not something you can ······ yourself."

Ye Yingwu had already stood up and walked to Yang Su's side, so that Yang Su couldn't talk anymore. Gently grabbed her, let the girl who had once faced each other with his sword cry in his arms, and reached out to stroke her soft hair, Ye Yingwu finally spoke:

"Su Niang, this time going north is very dangerous, you know better than them. The main reason why I left you behind was because there was no one to take care of me at home, which really made me feel at ease. When the time comes, if there is anything in case, the entire Ye family will be handed over to you, promise so-and-so, and protect everyone thoroughly. ”

"You ruthless!" Yang Xu said hatefully, but he suddenly broke free from Ye Yingwu's embrace, and then wrapped his arms around Ye Yingwu's neck and kissed him directly. Ye Yingwu was obviously taken aback by Yang Xu's sudden fire-like performance, but he still let her go.

Lu Wanyan and the others all stood up, but no one said anything to stop them, they just watched silently, and every pair of eyes that were once as bright as stars were overflowing with tears.

The soft and cold lips left, and Ye Yingwu breathed a sigh of relief, he was not alone in this seven-hundred-year world after all. At least there are these inseparable families, at least there are those soldiers who follow him without hesitation.

"When you haven't even gone north, you can see that you are parting with life and death one by one." Ye Yingwu couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Today is still the first day of the Lunar New Year, shouldn't it be more festive, this is still the first New Year." ”

This is the first Spring Festival and the first New Year that I have spent in this era, and it is also the first Spring Festival and the first New Year that I have spent with these people who will go hand in hand. It's just that I didn't expect that this New Year would be like this, and I'm afraid that it will be unforgettable.

"**Bitter is short, don't make the beauty of the good day vain." Ye Yingwu said with a smile, "Let's carry out the previous inheritance to the end." ”

Except for Qiqin, who had already had a fight with Ye Yingwu, the others all exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly ran around. And Ye Yingwu crossed a sly smile, a few of you are wearing so thick, or skirts, it is too naïve to want to run over so. (To be continued.) )
