"Drive, drive!"

Countless iron hooves struck on the earth, from far and near, like thunder, rolling and resounding in the sky. Darkness, boundless darkness, torches dancing wildly in front and back, emitting firelight like shining stars. There is no end to walking, no stop rushing, only for the goal ahead!

"Quick! Target Yanshi, Target Yanshi! ”

"Target Yanshi! Target Yanshi! ”

…………

The sound of the command from the past to the future continued to be issued, like a life-urging charm, constantly chanting and chattering in the ears of every soldier, making people upset and confused, but they couldn't help but listen. This is an order issued by the leading general Zhang Ji, and as pawns, they naturally have to obey and cannot resist at all! Even resentment cannot be easily spilled, otherwise the consequences will ...... consequences, no one dares to think. Because they don't dare to resist, even if they go against their will, they can only obey.

"Drive, drive!"

No one dared to complain, they seemed more urgent than the 'order', scolding the brute on their lips and waving their whips in their hands. Since the order cannot be violated, then vent this irritability on the crotch horse, and no one will be responsible, right? I ran all the way, ran for a day, a night, and now it's night again, the physical strength of my body has been squeezed dry, and my head is almost groggy. Before crossing Yishui, fortunately, I could rest for a while along the way, eat and drink saliva, and my physical strength was still balanced. But now, I don't know why, their leading general Zhang Ji suddenly asked them to follow him for a moment, killing Ben Yanshi all the way, even if they passed through Gong County, they didn't get in!

Before leaving, their general promised them that as long as they crossed Yishui, they would rest for the night in Gongxian County, and there would be a rich reward waiting for them. They were originally exhausted, but after hearing the promise made by the general, they came to their senses one by one, gritted their teeth, and no longer complained. Originally, with hope, there was motivation. So they followed the general to raise troops from Chenliu, all the way through Yangwu, to Xingyang, to Gao, and to Yishui. When I arrived in Yishui, it was still early, and I thought that although I was a little tired today, I could get to Gongxian County early to rest and rest, which was also good. But why did the general's order suddenly change again? What about Gong County? What about the reward? Could it be that the cooked duck that reached its mouth flew away like this?

What made the general so urgent, he couldn't wait for the pontoon bridge on the Yishui to be completely erected, so he issued an order to urge the three armies to cross the river quickly! There are only two pontoon bridges erected, where can thousands of troops and horses pass together? Those who cross the river on the pontoon bridge are still nothing, but those who can't grab the pontoon bridge are sad. The general ordered people to keep urging everyone to cross the river, but those who didn't have time to climb the pontoon bridge had already been driven down the river.

Although it is a March day, the river is still very cold, okay? The urging of this voice came and went, and the soldiers who jumped into the river were one after another, and the poofs were endless. Suddenly, people went down to the river, horses also swam the river, the river immediately boiled, fortunately, from last winter to this spring, the rain was less, the riverbed became shallow and narrow, barely able to gouge over, but there are also many people because they don't know the water and poured a few mouthfuls of water, and they were pulled in time, and those who no one paid attention to were swept away by the river long ago.

In this way, although they barely waded through the Yishui, most of them became soaked because their clothes and armor were soaked by the river. And it's already afternoon, the sun that is about to set is not strong, it can't make them feel warm, and the wind blows on the clothes and armor where is a cold word! But they must have no complaints, get on their horses and keep on their way!

It's wet, it's wet, but fortunately, it's not far from Gong County.

But when they knew that Gong County couldn't go in, Gong County suddenly became the target of extravagant hope, and it was out of reach. They wanted to stay in Gongxian, but the general ordered them to be driven away, telling them that their goal was not Gongxian, but the front...... Yanshi!

Yanshi!

"Target Yanshi! Target Yanshi! Speed up! ”

……

In fact, when they arrived in Gongxian, it was already completely dark, but they couldn't enter the city, so they could only walk around Gongxian County. Cold, hungry, and sleepy, they are almost on the verge of the last limit, but under the fierce gaze of General Zhang Ji, these people dare not disobey, and some can only resist from the heart. Even some guys slapped their crotches and dismounted, hating to shout the word 'no' from their angry chests, but since they could only bully and bully beasts, they didn't have the courage to say it, so they could only follow obediently.

"General, General!"

General Zhang Ji is not an iron body, and he is already exhausted under such an overload of running. Even, he wished he could stop and take a little rest, even if it was just for a while. Thinking about the warm quilt, thinking about the gentle concubine at home, thinking about the home that can shelter from the wind and rain. But he was ruthless, and he would rather pass through Gongxian than continue to soar all the way. If he is not an iron body, he is really unwilling to forget the cruelty of war because of the short-term warmth.

In war, every second counts, timing is everything. If you miss the opportunity, you've missed everything! He had already lost a battle at the hands of Chen Nuo last year, and he did not protect the general Yang Ding, which had already affected his reputation a lot. He endured the humiliation until now, just to wait for the general to have such a chance to avenge this revenge with his own hands, and personally return the shame outside the capital city to Chen Nuo. Now that he has this opportunity, he definitely can't let it go easily. Then, even if he had a nervous breakdown in the end, he had to hold on and not let himself relax.

Therefore, he would rather lose his trust to the soldiers, and would rather be this wicked man and let the soldiers scold him in their hearts. But he understands very well that as long as he leads them to win this battle, not only will he wash away his shame with blood, but he will also gain more fame and more meritorious deeds, so that he will be rewarded heavily in the future, and he is afraid that the soldiers will not understand his hardships today.

So no matter what, this 'wicked' man is deserved!

"General! Checkmate! ”

Zhang Ji pursed his lips, waved his whip, drove the horses continuously, galloping like a machine, completely forgetting that he was in the midst of thousands of horses. He also took the shouts as if they were in a dream, and didn't pay attention to them at all. He just kept roaring, and kept relaying his orders to the heralds behind him.

"Target Yanshi! Target Yanshi! Speed up the march! ”

A sound passed on. Commands are like mountains, numb as if a machine is ringing, trying to make everyone hear it all the time, invisibly increasing the pressure on them, urging them not to stop moving. Target Yanshi!

"General! Checkmate! ”

This sound finally brought Zhang Ji back to his senses on horseback, oh, someone was calling him. He turned his head sideways, but what he saw was a five-year-old and three-thick man.

"Hu Che'er! What's the matter with you? Others continue to march on the march, and do not delay! ”

He slowed down his horse while waiting for the chariot to approach.

"Whoa!"

Hu Che'er was sweating profusely, and his mouth was constantly panting with heavy turbidity. When he saw Zhang Ji from a distance, he hurriedly urged his horse forward and shouted, "General, you finally heard the call of the car!" ”

"Tell me something!"

Zhang Ji was in a hurry, and he didn't wait for Hu Che'er to get close, so he stretched out his hand and pulled the reins of the horse, looking at the posture like an arrow off the string, ready to 'shoot' away after listening to Hu Che'er's words. Hu Che'er followed Zhang Ji all the way from Xiliang, where did he not know that he was so impatient, and he was afraid that he would run away before he finished speaking, so he hurriedly beat his horse and shouted: "That, don't go, general!" The general listened to the car and said, "That...... That county order can't run anymore, and he almost got off his horse just now......"

didn't wait for Hu Che'er to finish speaking, Zhang Ji scolded loudly, blaming the county order for dragging his feet, and said helplessly: "Since he can't run, don't force him to come." In this case, you can tell him to let him slowly come up from behind, and General Ben will not have time to wait for him! ”

"Drive!"

Zhang Ji said as he kicked the horse's belly with his feet, and was about to continue on the road.

"General! Wait, general, the car still has something to say! The car was uncomfortable all the way, and I was afraid of ...... I'm afraid the car is going to again......"

Hu Che'er was afraid that Zhang Ji would run fast and not hear his words, so he continued to speak in a series. When Zhang Ji heard it, he snorted, and he was convinced. I don't know how many times this guy has been complimented all the way, thinking that his stomach is really bad, and he came with Yishui just now, and his stomach was also soaked in the river water. Originally, he was still counting on Hu Che'er in this battle, but if he brought such a sick man at this time, not only would he not be able to help himself, but he would also have to affect others.

Zhang Ji snorted and waved his hand again and again: "That's it, that's it!" You can slowly catch up with the county order from behind, and remember to meet the general at Yanshi! ”

"Yes!"

Hu Che'er rubbed the sweaty beans rolling down his face, and at the same time responded, and hurriedly dragged the horse and ran. Zhang Ji was still a little uneasy, and ordered him again: "Come back!" You remember to General Ben, I let you stay behind, but I didn't let you go to the county seat to drink for General Ben, have you ever understood! ”

They had just passed through Gong County, and it was not far to turn back. Hu Che'er is greedy who doesn't know, and he will be lazy, he has always relied on the favor of Zhang Ji and his nephew Zhang Xiu, and never took the order as an order, he deliberately ordered Hu Che'er at this time, not afraid that Hu Che'er would dare to disobey. After hearing this, Hu Che'er's head exploded, why is General Zhang Ji a roundworm in my stomach, and he was broken by him just when he had this idea? No, even if it's a roundworm, I'll have to take this 'roundworm' down!

Hu Che'er was obscene for a while, and he didn't dare not answer Zhang Ji's words, so he hurriedly replied: "General Zhang, don't worry, Che'er knows!" Hey, I know a fart, I've been running for a day and a night plus half of the night, and I've pulled one, two, three...... Five times in my stomach, Lao Tzu has already pulled off, not to mention that he is still hungry! Now that you've arrived in this county, if you don't go in, can you still be sorry for your belly! ”

Of course, Hu Che'er's first sentence was for Zhang Ji, and the next string was naturally to cheer himself up. Seeing Zhang Ji leave without snorting his nose, he smiled and hurried to find the county order. After all, Zhang Xianling is a weak literati, so it's okay for him to hold a pen, how can he stand such endless marches and wars? He saw Hu Che'er coming over just now, if he hadn't 'dangled' a shot in front of him, and then won Hu Che'er's deep sympathy with his rhetoric, where could he stop and breathe a few breaths of fresh air?

"Old man Zhang, are you okay?"

The army was still rolling forward, and Hu Che'er ran back for half a mile before rushing to Zhang Xianling's side. Seeing Hu Che'er coming, the county commander pretended to be dead in front of him again, gasped and said, "General Hu, General Hu, have you told General Zhang?" What did he say, did he agree? ”

Hu Che'er saw that he was about to lose his breath when he was panting like this, so he hurriedly asked him: "That old man Zhang, don't you matter, haven't you recovered from a quarter of an hour's rest?" Ah, Zhang Xianling, it turns out that your physique is so weak...... Ahem, I won't tell you, you wait for me first! ”

Hu Che'er said, threw off his horse, and looked at the dark mountains beside the road.

Zhang Xianling didn't get a reply from him, afraid that Zhang Ji would not agree and wouldn't be able to catch up with the road, so when he saw that he was about to run away, he quickly dismounted, grabbed his arm, and asked urgently: "That, General Hu, where are you going?" General Zhang, what do you say, you tell me first! ”

"No!"

A breath came like thunder, and the county commander was so frightened that he hurriedly threw away his hand.

"Look at you, old man, you've choked the bad breath behind my ass! Your business will be said, I ...... I ......"

Hu Che'er was too late to burst into foul language, grabbed his buttocks, and hurriedly rushed into the dark mountains when the second 'no' came. The county magistrate admitted that he was unlucky, and hurriedly took a few steps back, smiled and stopped talking.

Thousands of troops and horses are like carp crossing the river, and they are about to run away, but Hu Che'er is still pedaling inside.

"Good girl, take another sip.

Fair. Female, gentleman good ball, good ball ......"

"What a mess!"

This singing was really energetic, but Zhang Xianling was listening to it with stinky sweat on his face. When this 'good ball' came out, Zhang Xianling couldn't help but correct him: "General Hu, it's 'Guan Guan Ju Dove, in Hezhizhou." My Fair Lady, gentleman is not a mess, and I don't know who taught you! ”

"Wow wow!"

Hu Che'er picked up his pants, pointed at Zhang County's nose and shouted, "Isn't this what you taught me?" You dare to say that you didn't sing like this to your little concubine in the house that night......" Hu Che'er hadn't finished speaking, Zhang Xianling was already red-faced, it turned out that the joy of this boudoir was actually listened to by this stinky boy. It's just a shame to listen to it, but there are still decent ways to learn!

Although Zhang Xianling has only known him for a few days, he also knows that this guy has no door in his mouth, even if some 'elegant things' are said by his mouth, they immediately change their taste, and before Hu Che'er said anything else, he quickly interjected: "This, General Hu, I can't remember this matter, don't sing nonsense." By the way, didn't you ask General Zhang for his life just now? What did he say? ”

"Oh, General Zhang just let you walk slowly behind, as long as you don't forget to go to the Yanshi rendezvous when the time comes!"

Hu Che'er said, that is, he flew on the horse, and he was about to beat the horse and walk away. At this time, the cavalry team had already run far away, and it was on such a dark halfway, and the county commander was not very bold, but he didn't have the courage to go on the road alone. Seeing that Hu Che'er was about to walk away, he hurriedly went to pull his horse, and said with a smile: "The general is in the wrong direction, and that is Gongxian over there!" ”

"Huh!"

Hu Che'er didn't want to take the old man's burden, so he pretended to head the horse towards the road, preparing to go around and then enter the city after throwing the county order, but at this moment he broke it, and said with a smile: "You old man is really going to be weird, since the general has put down his words, he allowed you and me to follow behind, but he didn't let us enter the city!" Although this city is not far behind us, if we go in, it will be against the general's order, and the general will know about it, but I am afraid that the general will be unhappy again......"

Zhang Xianling didn't have any other skills, but he had already seen that Hu Che'er was moved. He smiled and enlightened him: "This general Zhang allowed you and me to come from behind, but he didn't say that it was tonight or Ming'er, I think tonight is here, and tomorrow'er is also here, so why bother to stick to it for a while?" Besides, you and I have been running like this all the way, even if I grit my teeth and persevere, I'm afraid that General Hu won't be able to stand it, right? What's more, general, don't forget, General Zhang said earlier, this Gong County has already arranged a 'reward', just waiting for my army to come." I think that although our army has not entered the city now, but those 'treats' are still there, General Hu, are you willing to see where these delicious wines and delicacies are put but no one patronizes them, what a waste this is! ”

"Yes, the old man is right! In this way, since we are here, if we don't go to this Gong County, it seems that it will be too bad for the local county magistrate, and it will be a waste of food! ”

Hu Che'er squeezed his eyes, happily agreed, turned the horse's head, and headed towards Gongxian. The county magistrate saw that Hu Che'er had moved, so he hurriedly stepped on a single stirrup and stepped forward.

The two horsemen turned back to Gongxian, and Zhang Ji still led the army to rush in the direction of Yanshi. Only when he reached the halfway point and remembered Hu Che'er, the more he thought about it, the more wrong he became, and he kicked the horse in the belly and shouted, "It's broken!" "The guards next to him didn't know what he meant by 'broken', thinking that he was going to stop the people, but he was happy, but there was no such thing at all, Zhang Ji still kept fighting. He shook his head and shouted in his heart: "How can I believe that Hu Che'er is a gluttonous ghost!" I'm afraid he's going back to Gong County to eat and drink now! Although he was angry in his heart, he didn't think much about it, shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"General Zhang! General Zhang! ”

However, at this moment, several horses on the opposite side flew in, shouting all the way. Seeing that Yanshi is about to arrive, why did such a scout suddenly come, could it be that Yanshi has changed? Zhang Ji's heart tightened.
