Chapter 391: Hospitality
Fan Ting'er and Lin Fengxian were a little bored in Yingzhou, except for sleeping in the secret room, and running to the Eight Formations to find their husband was the only fun, the two of them had nothing to do. On this day, when I heard that Jin Bing had sent 2,500 people to Yingzhou as "guests", the two extremely bored beauties immediately ignored Zhao Tianci's request for contact, and prepared to welcome the arrival of the "VIPs" with high spirits.
Lu Hayang led his 2,500 light cavalry all the way to a wild run, and in less than four hours, he reached a distance of twenty miles outside the city of Yingzhou. He looked far away, Yingzhou City was still only a small outline, and he told people to stop moving forward.
From here to Yingzhou City, it can be described as a horse Pingchuan, if it is not for the front of the main road of Huaishui to separate, directly hit the horse and whip, it will not take an hour to reach the city of Yingzhou.
"General, meet the Song army ahead!" The scout horse sent from the front came back to report that Lu Hayang was a little surprised, did Song Jun know about his arrival so quickly?
"How many people are on the other side?" Lu Hayang asked.
"Back to the general, there were only a dozen people on the other side, they brought a letter to the general, and then ...... And he left. Tanma handed over a letter.
Lu Hayang took it and handed it to another person next to him without looking at it, "You help me read it." ”
The man took the letter and opened it and said, "Hello General Jin, welcome to Yingzhou, a big boat has been prepared on the Huai River in front, please cross the river with peace of mind." Lu Hayang frowned and took the letter and looked at it twice, although he didn't understand Chinese, but the few lines could still be seen, "Tu Bihe, do you think they are cheating?" ”
The man who read the letter bowed and said, "General, there must be deception ahead, and we cannot pass." ”
Lu Hayang took a few steps forward and asked, "The radius is more than ten miles empty, where did the fraud come from?" ”
Tu Bihe also stretched his neck and looked at it for a while, "The general is right, it doesn't seem to be." ”
"Is there or isn't?" Lu Hayang frowned and glanced at him.
"There should be a letter to read, but there shouldn't be." Tubi said solemnly.
"Fart!" Lu Hayang snorted, "A bunch of nonsense! He waved his big hand, "Let's go, go to the Huai River and have a look." ”
On the wide surface of the Huai River, the waves are shining, and there are really more than a dozen big boats parked by the river, and the boats are empty.
Lu Hayang came to the front and took a look, "Fraud on the boat?" ”
"Quite possibly!" ”
"How? Dig a hole in the bottom of the boat? Lu Hayang looked at Tu Bihe, "How about you go down and investigate?" ”
Tu Bihe waved his hand again and again, "General, I don't know water, I will sink if I go down." ”
Lu Hayang turned around and asked, "Do you know the water nature, go down and see, is there anything strange under this boat?" ”
Soon, a few people came out of the group, took off their armor and jumped into the water, and dived under the boat. After a while, the men floated up and shouted, "General, the bottom of the ship is intact. ”
Lu Hayang nodded, "Hmm! It seems that Song Jun really sincerely invited us over, let's get on the boat! ”
More than 2,000 people, including men and horses, got on the big ship and set sail for the other side.
The Huai River extends eastward from here, confluence with the Changhe River south of Chaohu Lake in Luzhou, so the water surface is wide and the water is deep. The big ship traveled for more than half an hour to reach the opposite shore, Lu Hayang led people to abandon the boat and go ashore, sent people to inquire left and right, still did not see a person, although there were doubts in his heart, but he thought of another thing, most likely because the Song army was afraid of the tiger power of my Dajin country, and took the initiative to abandon the city and leave.
People who have this kind of thinking about him account for the vast majority of Zong Han's army, and it has long been a well-known thing that the Song people are vulnerable, so everyone is in a relaxed mood along the way.
After walking for another five or six miles, Yingzhou City was already in sight, but what made Lu Hayang strange was that the flags were displayed outside the city, and more than a dozen rows of flowing water feasts were neatly placed under the city, and the Song soldiers in white and purple military uniforms stood on both sides, each carrying a waist knife, all of them were mighty.
He hurriedly asked people to stop, only to see two horsemen in the Song army, one purple and one white, galloping out, standing a hundred meters in front of him, and said in a loud voice, "Is the person who came is the general of the Jin State?" ”
Lu Hayang walked out suspiciously, "I'm Lu Hayang, whose subordinate are you?" ”
The two of them glanced at him and said, "General Lu is invited, we are Ting Shuai and Feng Shuai's subordinates." ”
"I don't know!" Lu Hayang raised his head and said, "You let them come over in person." ”
The two said, "My marshal has prepared a reception banquet for the general, please dismount and enter the table, my marshal is already waiting there." ”
Tu Bihe suddenly interjected and asked, "You and I are friends and enemies, why do your marshals set up a feast to catch the wind for us?" ”
The two said, "What this general said is good, we are indeed friends and enemies, but my family is a hospitable person, you have traveled thousands of miles from the far north to the south of the Yangtze River, the journey is tiring, my Han family children are the country of etiquette, how can you neglect the distinguished guests from afar?" If you don't feel at ease, don't go. ”
After the two finished speaking, they beat their horses and wanted to leave, Lu Hayang said in a deep voice, "My big golden tiger division has traveled all the way, and the Han people all bow and worship, your handsome man has this beautiful intention, but of course I am disrespectful!" After speaking, he turned his head and asked Tu Bihe, "Is that what the Han people say?" ”
Tu Bihe raised his big finger and said, "The general is really only eight buckets tall, and his intelligence is abnormal!" ”
Lu Hayang laughed, "Han people like to go around and around when they talk, so it's not troublesome." Brothers, dismount and go to the feast! ”
More than 2,000 people dismounted, carrying longbows on their shoulders, and walked down to the city.
When they came to the feast, two men stood from the top, who were not tall in stature, dressed in purple and white robes, and wore silver masks, and only showed two points at the eyes, and could not see their facial features.
"Welcome to Yingzhou with General Jin Guolu! We will prepare a little wine, not a tribute, and ask General Lu not to be shabby. ”
Lu Hayang was stunned when he heard this, and when he heard this voice, it was clearly a woman, he was stunned for a moment and then laughed, "It's easy to say, are all the men of the Song people dead?" How do you get a woman to go into battle? The Jin soldiers behind him also burst into laughter.
The two of them were unmoved, and said in a harmonious voice, "General Lu is joking, everyone you see is a mighty man, and my two sisters are just ornaments." General Lu, please! ”
"Take a seat!" Lu Hayang waved his hand, everyone took their seats, Lu Hayang sat in front, next to the two handsome women who were purple and white, "May I ask which one is Tingshuai and which one is Fengshuai?" ”
Fan Ting'er, who was dressed in purple, owed, "General Lu, I am Tingshuai, and this sister is Feng Shuai." ”
Lu Hayang said, "Since they are two beauties, why don't you go to the mask and let me wait to see the jade style?" He thought about all the Chinese words he knew, and felt that these few sentences were the most appropriate, so he said them without hesitation.
Lin Fengxian shook his head and said, "General Lu, my sisters don't want to wear this kind of thing all day long, but my family husband doesn't allow the two of us to show our true faces." ”
"Xianggong? Who is your father-in-law? Lu Hayang laughed and said, "Call him out, I will reward him with two old punches, and he won't ask you so much." ”
Fan Ting'er said, "General Lu, my father-in-law is now sitting in Luzhou, and his surname is Zhao!" ”
Lu Hayang laughed violently, glared and asked, "Sitting in Luzhou?" Surname Zhao? ”
Fan Ting'er and Lin Fengxian nodded at the same time.
Lu Hayang turned around and whispered to Tu Bihe, "I heard that the little emperor of the Southern Dynasty is also surnamed Zhao ......."
"That's right, it's him!" Fan Ting'er and Lin Fengxian said at the same time.
Lu Hayang's face froze, "Really??" ”
"Isn't that right?" I heard that the little emperor is only a few years old, how can he have such a big wife? ”
Fan Ting'er and Lin Fengxian laughed, "Who said that the little emperor can't marry an older wife?" ”
Lu Hayang and Tu Bihe sighed, "That's right! He picked up a glass of wine in front of the table and said, "Thank you two ladies for your hospitality, I'll do it first!" He raised his glass and drank it all.
Fan Ting'er asked strangely, "Aren't you afraid that this wine is poisonous?" ”
Lu Hayang shook his head, "Don't be afraid!" ”
Lin Fengxian asked, "Why?" ”
Lu Hayang said, "If you want to harm me, you just need to gouge through the bottom of the boat, and you don't have to pay such a big deal." ”
Lin Fengxian and Fan Ting'er glanced at each other and nodded, "General Lu looks a little reckless, but his courage and wisdom are still quite powerful. As he spoke, he also raised his glass and took a sip, "General Lu also knows that my two sisters are women, and they can't drink like you men, please forgive me!" ”
Lu Hayang was a little carried away by the praise of the two of them, and laughed, "It's okay." It's very interesting, I thought we had to fight first, who knew that what greeted my old Lu was good wine and good meat! ”
The soldiers laughed, picked up their glasses and began to eat and drink.
"General Lu, you are here to find out what is true on our side, right?" Fan Ting'er asked after Lu Hayang swallowed a large piece of meat.
Lu Hayang nodded, "My master asked me to come and see what kind of magic weapons you have in your hands, and you have the courage to eat all of our 600,000 troops." ”
"Six hundred thousand? Not so much, right? Lin Fengxian said.
Lu Hayang took a sip of wine and said, "Of course." There are 100,000 in Xiangyang City, 100,000 in Shuzhou and 100,000 in Qizhou, and the Taishi sent that old thing from Glinghalk to bring 100,000 people back to Luzhou, and the remaining 200,000 are stationed outside the city, which will never be wrong. ”
Fan Ting'er said, "What General Lu said was the beginning, as far as I know, Li Cheng of Xiangyang City was beheaded by my second brother Yue, and the 100,000 soldiers and horses who went back were less than 100,000, right?" And what kind of character did you say, those 100,000 people were collected by my family minister in Luzhou City, so there are at most 400,000 people in the hands of your master, and there should be less than 300,000 people who can really fight, right?
