Chapter 52 of the second volume The weak girl returns to the horse
PS: True love is the strongest force in the world
Fifty-two chapters in the next volume
The herald was galloping, when suddenly the horse stumbled, and the whole person flew out. When he got up from the ground, he already had several lances against his chest. He glanced at the horse and saw several Jin soldiers putting away their tripping horses.
The Jin army lifted him from the ground, and the small-headed man shouted for someone to take him to the dense forest next to him. The other party moved too fast, and he didn't have time to destroy the Helian Chang warrant he was carrying. The Jin army searched for a while, and quickly turned out the warrant and walked into the depths of the forest.
Guo Xu called a literate person to read it to him, and was surprised to find that the warrant was actually to tell Yao Zhanbao to make way for the approaching Jin soldiers and horses, and not to stop them.
Interrogate the herald immediately. The latter knew that the two sides had actually lifted the state of engagement at this time, and there was no need to provoke the other party by keeping his mouth shut, so he immediately told Chen Song about the agreement reached by Chen Song on the abduction of Helian Bi, Helian Chang and Zhu Lingshi.
Guo Xu couldn't believe his ears.
The Huns had just annihilated the main force of Liu Yizhen's troops, and it was just when they were about to take advantage of the victory to expand the results of the battle, how could they lift the lid of the pot and let the boiled duck fly away?
Helian Xuan's battalion of tens of thousands of people should be heavily fortified, how could he be kidnapped?
Is it a trap? But how can there be a reason to set a trap and withdraw the ambush first!
Tossing and turning, not knowing what to do. I interrogated the herald again, but I couldn't hear any traces of blind fabrication. To believe or not to believe, and in some hesitation, the brothers who had been sent out to pretend to be Hun scouts returned. At this point, Guo Xu knew that what the Hun herald said was all the truth.
The officers and soldiers of the flying cavalry in the forest shook the sky.
Even the most fantastical soldiers never dreamed that they would suddenly end the fight and get out of danger in this way.
Guo Xu was overjoyed. I felt that something was wrong, and I thought about it for a while. After calling the herald, he asked:
"Helian has been released?"
The herald said that there is no scruple yet, and your General Chen is holding him with a few people. It is estimated that it will not be released until General Zhu Lingshi leads the team away.
Guo Xu's heart instantly fell from the clouds into the abyss.
The three armies escaped, but Chen Song was still in the tiger's mouth.
And it definitely can't go away.
He was about to jump on horseback and go west, pull out Chen Song from the Hun cage, and kill the brothers side by side, even if they couldn't rush out, they would die together, just like when Chen Song jumped on the riverbank alone to save him. But almost at the same time, I thought that what Chen Song needed most now was not someone to accompany him to die, but someone to firmly protect his wife and children. Protect his bloodline.
ordered a small group of people to wait to meet Zhu Lingshi's department, and immediately led the team and the Xiongnu to lead the troops east. After Yao exterminated the leopard's troops, he wanted to occupy the pass at once until the large army passed through GuΓ². If the Huns repented, they could still resist the attack. He felt that the Huns would definitely regret it. Even if Helian Chang doesn't, Helian Chang will!
At this time, Yao Zhanbao was looking west on the top of the mountain. The sun has turned west, but you can still see it for ten miles in the distance. The Jin army Chang'an defenders are going to withdraw, and if they go straight to the east, they should have arrived yesterday. Since I didn't come yesterday. He thought that they must have been hiding in the dense forest on the main stream of the Wei River for a day, and they had already fallen into an encirclement.
It's contradictory.
On the one hand, he hoped that the Jin army would hide in the dense forest as he expected, so that he could prove that he was like a god. I have already seen the strategy of a first-class general like Zhu Lingshi; On the other hand, he hoped that the Jin army was not so clever, but fled straight to the east, just falling into his ambush circle. The former proves to be resourceful. But it is the one who commands the siege, if he is not mistaken. Then it should be Helian Bi who gets this credit. The latter, if the Jin army comes east. If the action is decisive, Helian Chang, who has just finished a vicious battle, will not be able to stop them, and his side will be able to make a big gain, and the brothers will not work hard in vain. If the Jin army dragged mud and water like Liu Yizhen, then Helian Chang would have the spare strength to have another annihilation war, in that case, what leaked into his Yao Annihilation Leopard bowl would be the dregs of the war. Even if the grains are returned to the warehouse, it is estimated that the head and loot will not even be enough for a building owner.
Helian Bobo admires him very much, which is true, but it seems that he always leaves the task of oil and water to his son.
Is it distrustful of outsiders? No! Wang Maide is also an outsider, who dares to say that Bo Bo does not trust Wang Maide?
Do you think that Yao Xuanbao is not talented? No! The Great Xia Dynasty and the opposition, if you don't say anything against your will, who would dare to say that Helian Bi is actually more capable than Yao Annihilation?
He smiled bitterly, thinking that he was still thinking about this. In the capable Yao Annihilation Leopard, who is also a courtier of the Helian family, he is a strength-maker, a minion, and it is already a great kindness to be willing to use you. No matter how incompetent the son is, he is also the son of the Helian family, and he will pass it on to the world. In a war with no suspense in the ending, whether to give the glory to the son who inherits the mantle or to the slave who drives it, it is estimated that the wooden stake can make the right choice.
He had already thought that after the war was completely extinguished, he would go to Chang'an slowly, and never rush in front of Helian Chang and Helian Biao, and he would never show off everywhere that Helian Biao's encirclement and annihilation of the Jin army in the dense forest was his idea to destroy the leopard. He believed that the more low-key he was, the more satisfied Helian Bo became.
After looking at it for a while, I didn't see a wisp of smoke, and it was time to come down and eat something. His men brought a wooden plate with two plates, one was his favorite boiled sheep's head, and the other was roasted rabbit. He had just torn off the rabbit's leg and bitten it when a soldier ran down from it, waving his hand excitedly;
"Here it is, General, the enemy is coming."
Yao Zhanbao continued to chew on rabbit meat and asked vaguely:
"Are there a lot of people?"
The soldiers didn't say much, and there were only 100 people.
Yao Zhenbao really wanted to kick this guy:
"Soldier No. 10, you are happy to be like this, if you come to No. 1800, will you be crazy?"
Bing smirked and scratched his scalp:
"Maybe it's the vanguard, and the team is behind."
Yao Zhanbao finished eating a rabbit leg and slowly got up. In fact, he was also very excited, but he had to maintain his demeanor as a general in front of the soldiers. The officer with the army cannot be like a butterfly, flapping his little wings when he sees a flower.
He looked at it for a while, and gradually felt that something was wrong.
If it is the top soldier of the Jin army, it will be in this kind of terrain. It should be cautiously trying to move forward, but the one who comes is in a posture of driving straight in. The terrain here resembles a sheep's intestine with a large bag bulging in the middle. The entrance and exit are narrow, and only two horses can go hand in hand. And there is a big empty space in the middle, as if God has dug a well here. Yes, this is what Sun Tzu calls a patio! Yao Annihilated Leopard ambushed heavy troops at the entrance and exit, prepared archers on the four edges of the patio condescendingly, and piled up countless stones. The Jin army will not have any trouble at the entrance, which will also paralyze them, and when some of them enter the exit passage, and most of them enter the patio position, he will cut off the entrance. Catch a turtle in an urn.
What is suspicious now is that the Jin army galloped all the way to the entrance, and suddenly stopped.
Be patient.
At this time, whoever can calm down will have a chance of winning.
After a long time, a soldier ran up from below:
"General, there is one of our people, who said that he had a warrant from General Helian Chang and wanted to present the general in person."
The warrant was written in Chinese, telling him to immediately withdraw the ambush and get out of the way. Let Zhu Lingshi's department go over, and you must not disobey!
It's getting more and more wrong.
Not to mention that the prince ordered the general to set up the enemy, this kind of order alone is very rare.
The Huns had no written language, and all orders were verbal. The Han people have no basis for their words. Black and white only count, but what the Huns value is oral communication, so everyone in the clan promises a thousand gold. Words count, there is no such faith. The whole clan simply cannot survive. If Helian Chang has something important, he can pass on the password. Why is it written as a warrant in Chinese?
After looking closely, the Chinese language is indeed Helianchang's handwriting. Helian Chang likes calligraphy, and among the Huns who can write Chinese, he is considered a top master. The seal can't be faked.
Puzzled, staring at the herald gloomily:
"Who's behind you?"
The herald told the truth, telling the story that he was captured by Guo Xu, about Chen Song's kidnapping of Helian Bi, and about Helian Chang's contract with Zhu Lingshi.
Yao Annihilation Leopard almost fainted!
It's this Helian Chuan again, he always comes out just right to spoil the possibility of a victory!
He was kidnapped!
I was kidnapped in my own camp!
There is still a face alive, exchanging his dog's life for the results of the bloody battles of the soldiers!
Suddenly I felt that I was very funny, and I tried my best to figure out the abacus of the Jin army, and set up the mechanism without any last resort, bent on catching the tiger of the Jin army going down the mountain.
His first impulse was to ignore the thirty-seven twenty-one, never withdraw the troops, just hold the Jin army here, and kill him without leaving a piece of armor!
But another voice told him that he must not do this!
Then you will offend the two princes. Helian Chang will hate you for not listening to him, and your victory will make Helian Chang even more incompetent.
He sat down slowly, carefully read Helian Chang's warrant, confirmed that there was no hint, any concealment, and any deliberate **, and decided to meet the commander of the Jin army first, anyway, at this time, he couldn't hide it.
By this time it was already dark, and the canyon area was even darker. The Jin army has already lit torches. Seeing him coming, the commander of the Jin army who took the lead took off his helmet. Yao Zhanbao's whole body suddenly tightened, lest Guo Xu would say that General Yao would be unharmed, revealing that they had met. But Guo Xu was obviously a little more tactful than he expected:
"May I ask who is General Yao Annihilation?"
Yao Zhanbao breathed a sigh of relief:
"I'm Yao Zhanbao, who are you?"
Guo Xu continued to act:
"I have heard the name of General Yao for a long time, I am Guo Xu, deputy of the Beifu Army, and we have fought in Chiyang."
Yao Zhenbao smiled and said that you won that time, but this time you can't get by. Look up at the terrain here, no matter how good you are, you can't break through, so you better surrender. I, Yao Annihilation, speak and count, and I will never hurt people who are in a desperate situation.
Guo Xu instantly understood that Yao Zhanbao was repeating what he had said by the Wei River last year, in order to show that he was true to his words, but with a sense of superiority of the victor. He can't break it, it's not authentic, but he can't let Yao Xuanbao's sense of superiority continue:
"Yes, so are we, except for the confrontation between the two armies, we never bully the widow with the crowd, and we have always been unhelpful to those who are in a desperate situation."
The dim light masked the flush on Yao Xuanbao's face.
Guo Xu said that now that your eldest prince has issued a warrant, you should withdraw the soldiers.
Yao Zhanbao said that he would be outside, and the king's order would not be affected, let alone the prince!
This sentence blocked Guo Xu at once. He didn't know how to respond for a long time, and he was unwilling to retreat:
"General Yao. Why drive people to a dead end? If some words are said thoroughly, they will spread. I'm afraid that it will be bad for you. β
Yao Zhanbao knew what he meant, and sneered;
"General Guo, such threatening words are generally said by villains in the market, and they are really not worthy of your identity."
Guo Xu was robbed by him, and he couldn't talk back. Seeing that it was in a stalemate, whether there was a chance of opening the road, it was scorching, and Zhu Lingshi's scouts arrived. said that General Zhu led men and horses, less than ten miles away, and there were no pursuers behind him, and General Zhu asked General Guo to hurry up and complete the handover with General Yao.
Yao Zhanbao's heart was actually more entangled and anxious. He finally blocked the Jin army brigade, and estimated that this battle could annihilate seven or eight thousand people, and his merit was comparable to Helian Chang's victory in Qingni. The world is so big, how many generals can have the opportunity to get such a big victory in their lifetime? How many generals were able to achieve such a great victory with a disparity in casualties under favorable terrain? But Helian Chang's warrant was there. The most important thing for the Huns is to speak and count, if they go back on their word, even if they win, they will be laughed at by the people in the country. Helian Chang is the one who wants to be the emperor. If he tore up his own agreement, it would be enough to give his political opponent, that is, Helian Xuan, the best reason to despise. No one would think that this was Yao Zhanbao's own initiative. Because you, Yao Annihilation, are a slave of the Helian family, if there is no master to hint at you. How dare you come here? Such an inference would turn into a rumor, and Helian Chang must have been extremely annoyed by it. If the master has an order and you disobey it. You just have ulterior motives! In that way, even if you kill countless enemies, you are not a hero, but a rebel and thief.
Thinking about it again, if he withdrew his troops, what would Helian Bi think? Helian was the one who was disgraced, and his brother made a pact with the enemy to save him, which only made his shame even deeper. If he annihilated this Jin army, it would be equivalent to avenging him. Even he estimated that Helian Chang himself would lead his troops to catch up, because this agreement was Helian Chang's, and he was not restricted. But if Helian doesn't catch up, then he avenges him, will he appreciate it? Not necessarily! Yao's victory not only contrasted with his defeat, but also made him look like a scoundrel who couldn't afford to lose.
Thinking about it, it doesn't please both ends.
Is Helian Bobo what will think?
When the emperor was still alive, it was the greatest stupidity to be a courtier who was bent on pleasing the prince. The feelings of the prince should not be taken into account, and no effort should be spared to dedicate a great victory to the emperor. But once the emperor is going to change people, offending today's prince is to anger the future emperor, such a thing is something that Yao Annihilation can't do. What's more, Helian Bobo's original intention on this expedition was to take Chang'an, not to completely annihilate the Jin army, he was unwilling to completely offend the iron-fisted Liu Yu, otherwise he could have acted faster and blocked the Jin army in Chang'an City and annihilated it.
At this time, a soldier came over and whispered a few words behind his ear.
Yao Zhanbao was shocked, took a few steps back, and asked in a low voice:
"Are there a lot of people?"
The soldier said that it was dark and he couldn't see clearly, and he felt that it was everywhere.
Yao Zhanbao decided that there was no possibility for the Jin army in Guanzhong to go around his back, and it could only be that reinforcements from Luoyang had arrived. Now that the army has climbed up from behind and carved up his geographical advantage, he will insert a knife in his waist at any time, and then the Jin army in front will attack again, and the host-object shape will be reversed in an instant, and it is a question whether he can escape or not. Time is running out, and we must quickly withdraw before the two Jin forces can attack together.
Guo Xu was thinking about going back to discuss countermeasures with Zhu Lingshi, when he suddenly heard Yao Zhanbao laugh:
"Well, General Guo and I can't be considered to be a deal. Since there is a warrant from the eldest prince, then I will withdraw my troops! β
Guo Xu was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Yao Anbao made a sudden turn, for fear that he was tempting the enemy:
"General Yao, you have a lot of people, how do I know that you don't withdraw some and keep some of them?"
Yao Zhanbao said that this is easy. Your side has taken General Helian as a hostage, which is a good trick. I don't want to be humiliated and taken hostage, but I can stay with you forever, and when your army is over, I will leave, what do you think?
Guo Xu suddenly felt that he was very small and the enemy was very gentlemanly, and he didn't know what to say, Yao Zhanbao had already passed the order.
A bull's horn sounded in the valley.
It was as if this cold, silent stone mountain had suddenly been breathed into life by a horn, and the whereabouts of people appeared between the ravines, on the top of the mountain, in the dense forest, and in the cave. The Huns withdrew from the ambush site one after another, and gathered on the patio flat ground amid a series of successive orders, leaving only a small guard force on the most critical high ground. In case the Jin army suddenly hit a backhand. The action is fast, and the command is sober. Guo Xu was amazed. If this force is not withdrawn, it does not matter how many of them there are. It's impossible to get out of this Jedi.
The Xiongnu army ran out of the valley and passed by the Jin army that drove over. This is the strangest scene since the war between the Xia and Jin sides, the two sides have formed a blood feud, but at this time, they do not open their bows, do not draw their swords, and do not even speak ill of each other. The Han people were in a hurry to escape, and the Huns were in a hurry to leave this cold and remote mountainous area, and both beasts put away their claws.
When Zhu Lingshi saw Yao Zhanbao, he immediately dismounted and thanked him from the bottom of his heart:
"Zhu Lingshi is a soldier of the three armies. And their family is small, thank you General Yao for letting go of life! Great kindness, no tooth to forget! β
When Zhu Lingshi became famous in the first battle to destroy the Shu Kingdom, today's Yao Zhanbao, that is, Yao Ji at that time, was only a member of the Qin army and an unknown middle-level officer. Although there is not much difference in age between the two, they are by no means on the same level in terms of world reputation. At this moment, I was flattered to see the famous general star thanking me. Secretly proud.
Guo Xu didn't say anything more, walked over and hugged him fiercely in his arms, and patted him on the back. Only the two of them understand the meaning.
Zhu Lingshi personally sent Yao Annihilation Leopard and his personal soldiers to Gukou. Let Guo Xu take 500 people to occupy the commanding heights of the entrance and exit. After getting the signal of Yao to destroy the leopard, the Huns in the high places had already gone down, and they passed by Guo Xu. With obvious unwillingness. Guo Xu climbed to the top and was sweating profusely. I was about to drink saliva when I heard someone shouting Brother Guo in the dark. The sound is familiar.
Xu Zhihao!
Xu Zhihao took more than 800 people and escorted the two ladies through the trail. The trail was rough and narrow, and the carriage had to be thrown away; Half of the horses hurt their legs and feet, so they had to leave them there to ask for more blessings. They walked for most of the day, and finally reached the flat ground. Xu Zhihao didn't care about the fatigue of the soldiers, left the horseless soldiers to escort Xiao Qiao and Xue Mei'er to continue walking, and he took the rest of the cavalry back to this canyon, climbed up hand and foot, and lurked behind the Huns. He had already thought that once the army was blocked, these people would be all spelled out, and they would also tear a hole in the ambush circle of the Huns.
Only then did Guo Xu understand why Yao Anbao suddenly agreed to withdraw. He must have been in the dark and didn't know the enemy's situation, and he didn't know that Xu Zhihao had a pitiful number of people, thinking that a large group of reinforcements had arrived.
Zhu Lingshi learned of Xu Zhihao's actions, increased his forehead with his hand, and repeatedly said that this is a general, this is a general! You must tell Song Gong to promote this brother by leaping over the ranks! For another person, in this kind of situation, it would be good to be able to protect himself, how could he still take care of tearing a gap for the army! Be sure to skip the level and promote! It was heartfelt ecstasy. Since leaving Chang'an, Zhu Lingshi really saw the hope of the whole army surviving for the first time.
Under the cover of Guo Xu, the army quickly passed through the canyon and rushed towards Tongguan. Tongguan was still in the hands of the Jin army, and although there were not many people there, they could at least replenish their supplies, and then immediately march to Luoyang. Zhu Lingshi judged that once they got out of Tongguan, the Huns would have no interest in pursuing. They want Guanzhong, and Guanzhong is almost all theirs. As for Tongguan, when they rested and swaggered over, it is estimated that the Jin army defending the city will also withdraw.
Guo Xu and Zhu Lingshi have agreed that he will stay here for a day and night, and then he will block the front and rear passes and bring people to catch up.
From the moment they met, Hu Luzheng was silent. Both of them hung Chen Song, but they didn't mention this person. Before leaving, Hu Luzheng finally spoke:
"Brother, I protect women and children, waiting for you to come!"
Guo Xu knew that Hu Luzheng did not stay by Chen Song's side because of this, so he reached out and took off his dry food bag from his waist and hung it around his neck. Hu Luzheng didn't shirk, touched Guo Xu's face, got on the horse and left.
I came back in the middle of the night.
When the soldiers guarding the mouth of the valley heard the sound of horses' hooves, they immediately drew their bows and shouted:
"Password!"
They heard Hu Luzheng's familiar Chinese with a Xianbei accent:
"I, Hu Lvzheng!"
In the Flying Cavalry officers and soldiers, it is more useful to say the name in this tone than the password.
Guo Xu heard that Hu Luzheng was back, and he was full of surprise, he had spread a blanket behind a rock, and wanted to take a nap, so he hurried to meet it at this time. When I came to him, I found that it was not Hu Luzheng alone. There was a horse behind him, and he couldn't see it until he walked to the torch.
It's Xue Mei'er!
Seeing the army catching up, Xiaoqiao and Xue Meier were overjoyed, but soon found that their husbands were not there. Zhu Lingshi first told sΓΉ Xiaoqiao where Guo Xu was. Xiaoqiao is a little relieved. Xue Mei'er eagerly watched Zhu Lingshi, waiting for him to bring her husband's whereabouts. Chen Song acted with Zhu Lingshi. Now that Zhu Lingshi has retreated with his whole body, Chen Song should naturally be unscathed. But why wasn't he there? Did he stay with Guo Xu?
Zhu Lingshi has never opened his mouth so hard in his life:
"Madam, General Chen didn't go with us!"
Xue Mei'er smiled stupidly:
"And how is he going?"
She noticed that the people around her had lowered their heads and taken a few steps back, as if they were dodging something. Zhu Lingshi lowered his head, and a big man played with the copper buckle he wanted to bring like a child:
"He stayed in the Hun camp!"
Xue Mei'er's voice trembled a little, but she still smiled stupidly:
"What is he doing there? Why not follow along? β
Xiao Qiao had already realized something, leaned on Xue Mei'er's back, and reached out to wrap her arms around her waist, which was the waist of a pregnant woman. She couldn't hold it, but if the pregnant woman was going to fall, she could at least hold her back.
Zhu Lingshi picked out the words and carefully explained the original situation.
Xue Mei'er listened in a daze and didn't speak for a long time. Xiao Qiao was so nervous that she didn't even dare to come out. Zhu Lingshi felt like a prisoner, under the gaze of a heartbroken woman.
After a long time, Xue Mei'er said quietly:
"He was still alive when you left, wasn't he?"
Zhu Lingshi's tears swirled in his eyes. Barely audible said yes.
Xue Mei'er said please give me a horse from the general, and I will go to him.
She said it very softly, but to Zhu Lingshi's ears, it was like a thunderbolt!
Xue Meier. Pregnant woman Xue Mei'er, a pregnant woman who has no power to restrain the chicken, has to go against the escape direction of thousands of troops. Turn back through the tide of Hun rage and go to find his husband. And this husband has no hope of surviving. Unless he actually bent down his steel neck and iron waist and surrendered to the Huns.
The people immediately gathered around her and tried every means to persuade her not to do so. Xue Mei'er listened to them silently, and when the embarrassment subsided, she still said the same:
"Give me a horse, I'm going to find him!"
No one would move. Xue Mei'er walked up to Zhu Lingshi:
"General Zhu, I know that you didn't deliberately leave him, and I also know that he wanted to do this himself. Now you're all back, and he's still there! He is my husband and the father of my children, and I cannot live without him. You finally came out, you can't go back, I don't want to go with me alone, just give me a horse, please! β
Zhu Lingshi helped her, closed his eyes and sighed on his back, tears rolling down. The people around me were already crying. Xue Mei'er pulled out Zhu Lingshi's sword and put it across her neck, and the sound of it unsheathed caused people to exclaim. Xue Mei'er looked at Zhu Lingshi with tears on her face:
"General Zhu, give me a horse!"
Zhu Lingshi waved his hand helplessly, asking people to prepare the horse.
Xue Mei'er took Xiao Chang'an from the arms of a brother and kissed his little face. The brother who had brought the horse shouted for the horse to kneel, but she still struggled to sit down in the saddle, barely reaching the stirrups with her feet.
The brothers immediately got on their horses and wanted to go with her. Xue Mei'er made a gesture of stopping:
"Chen Song fought for his life, just to let you survive, if because of me, you go back to death, I don't have the face to see him. I'm going alone, and no one is going to follow! β
Xiao Qiao grabbed the stirrup and hugged her feet:
"Sister, you are pregnant, why did you ride a horse so far? There is a mistake, what should the child do? What do you do? β
Xue Mei'er looked into the distance:
"Isn't it what a child should do to accompany a mother to find a father? If God doesn't open his eyes to accept me, I'm willing! β
With a gentle knock on the horse's belly, the horse took a step and walked back slowly. People stay where they are, not knowing what to do.
She had taken a few steps and heard the sound of horses' hooves catching up behind her. When he turned his face, he just saw Hu Luzheng walking to his side, and Hu Luzheng handed over a water bladder and a bag of dry food:
"Accompanying my younger siblings to find my brother is also what the eldest brother should do."
Xue Mei'er smiled slightly:
"Okay, I'm glad you come with me!"
Guo Xu listened to Hu Luzheng's explanation, and without saying a word, he immediately called Xu Zhihao and asked him to command here, turn over and get on his horse by himself, and Hu Luzheng alone, sandwiched Xue Mei'er in the middle, and went out of the canyon to the west.
After walking less than five miles, a bonfire flashed in the distance, and Guo Xu knew that Yao Zhanbao had camped here for the night.
The Xiongnu sentries were surprised to see two Han Chinese officers with a woman. He was stunned for a moment before he opened his bow and asked the other party to stop immediately. Guo Xu said that you should go and inform General Yao Zhanbao. Let's just say that Guo Xu asked to see.
Yao Zhanbao had just laid down and was looking at the roof of the tent with his eyes open. Suddenly, I heard that Guo Xu was visiting, and there was a woman who didn't know the essentials at all, so she asked someone to bring them in.
As soon as we met, he understood.
He saw Xue Mei'er by the Wei River and knew that she was Chen Song's wife, and he was shocked at that time. He was in a bit of a trance, because this woman had a big belly at the time, and she was still having a big belly at the moment, and then he understood that this should be another child. There was no one in the big tent. He told his soldiers to watch from the outside, and not to let anyone approach.
Xue Mei'er said that I was going back to find my husband, and asked General Yao to send someone to escort me.
There seemed to be no plea in the voice, almost a command.
Guo Xu and Hu Luzheng were all stunned, they didn't expect Xue Mei'er to make this request to Yao Xuanbao, and it sounded very reasonable.
Yao Zhanbao was also stunned, and then smiled apologetically:
"Actually, I knew what you were going to do as soon as you came. However, after the war, I advised my wife not to go. General Chen's auspicious nature. It's going to be fine. If there is really something, it is useless for you to go, it is better to take care of yourself and take care of General Chen's blood and bones. Besides. As a Hun general, how can I send someone to escort the wife of an enemy general? You come to me, and you are very Meng Lang in itself. It's better to go back quickly, lest people make irresponsible remarks. When the time comes, I can't speak clearly! β
Guo Xugang wanted to say that it doesn't matter if you don't escort, as long as you don't stop it. Let's go find Helian Chang ourselves. But before she opened her mouth, Xue Mei'er had already spoken:
"What I came to ask for is not the Hun general Yao Zhanbao, but the spy Yao Zhanbao who was let go by my husband by the Wei River, what I want from him is not mercy, but gratitude and retribution!"
Yao Zhanbao opened his mouth and didn't say a word.
Xue Mei'er didn't seem to want him to answer:
"I am not here to ask the Xiongnu general Yao to destroy the leopard, but the Great Qin general Yao Ji, I think he still has the blood of the Qiang people on his body, and he will not look at a Qiang woman who is lonely and helpless and stand by!"
Yao Zhanbao was startled, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to Xue Mei'er, but after a turn of thought, he immediately blurted out a Qiang language:
"You are a Qiang woman, why did you marry a Han Chinese?"
Xue Mei'er immediately replied in Qiang:
"You are a Qiang general, why did you surrender to the Huns?"
Guo Xu and Hu Lu Zheng were in the clouds and fog, like ducks listening to thunder, but as soon as Xue Mei'er's voice fell, Yao Zhanbao immediately stood up, took two steps forward, stretched out his hand to help Xue Mei'er to sit on a Hu bed, and motioned for Guo Xu and Hu Lu to sit on the ground.
Xue Mei'er sat still, a faint sadness on her face:
"General Yao Ji, I haven't finished my words yet. Today I want to sue you that Chen Song is my second husband, and he took me in when I was in trouble. The last time you saw me, the child in my womb was not his, it was my ex-husband's. My ex-husband is also surnamed Yao, although he has not met you, but you must be very familiar with him, you are of the same clan and the same clan, if you want to talk about generation, you should be his brother! β
Guo Xu and Hu Luzheng already knew what was going on, and the guilt arose, and the sorrow came from it, and they all lowered their heads. Yao Zhanbao's eyes flashed with eagerness:
"Who is he? Where is he now? β
Xue Mei'er closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then opened her eyes and looked at Yao Zhanbao with teary eyes:
"He is the Great Qin Emperor to whom you used to be loyal to His Majesty Yao Hong!"
A thunderclap sounded on Yao Zhanbao's head, and the hands supporting his legs became weak, and the person almost changed from kneeling to slumping. His throat was tight, his mouth was dry, he looked at Xue Mei'er in a daze for a long time, and stammered:
"You ......"
Xue Mei'er said that the matter has come to this point, and I am not afraid of losing face. I was originally a palace maid in the queen's palace, and I didn't bear the idea of heaven's grace, but it was a match made in heaven, when the queen went out, I stayed in the palace, and I happened to meet His Majesty, and I was wrongly loved by him, so I was able to sleep several times, and I was pregnant with the dragon seed. When the Jin army fought at Tongguan, His Majesty was worried that the country would not be protected, so he entrusted his teacher Zhong Like to take me to Zhongnan Mountain to give birth, and since then he has left the palace and never returned. Later, Mr. Zhongli Ke died of illness, and I was exiled to Chang'an, and it was Chen Song who took me in. The prince is now the son of Chen Song, who is more than half a year old, and is named Chen Chang'an.
After hearing this qiΔ, Yao Zhanbao knew that it was not a lie, and the feelings of the homeland arose. If it weren't for the death of Great Qin, this woman would have been canonized as a concubine if she gave birth to a prince, although she was not the mother of the country, but she was also the person whom these clan soldiers swore to defend. Such a woman is a disgrace to these generals. Yes, she is now the daughter of the enemy general Chen Song, but she is also the mother and protector of the prince of Great Qin. If the royal lineage of the Qiang people is still worth maintaining, and the hope for the revival of the Qiang people lies in the next generation, then this woman is doing what these Qiang generals have not done.
For a moment, I felt that the Heavenly Dao was gloomy, and it was difficult for Tianxin to ask, and he would use such an erroneous way to make him pick up a burden that had been unloaded for a long time.
got up and bowed his hand to Guo Xu and Hu Luzheng:
"The two generals, please go back, you go, it will cause unnecessary trouble, Yao Ji personally escorts his wife, foolproof!"
Guo Xu understood that Yao Zhanbao would not deceive them, and he also knew that what he said made sense, so he made an appointment with him to pick up Xue Mei'er at Gukou, and then the two went back.
Yao Anbao sent them away, and immediately asked his own soldiers to call more than a dozen henchmen and Qiang people, and told them to get up with him immediately, arrange a comfortable carriage, and escort Xue Mei'er to the west.
His horse always ran next to Xue Mei'er's car, and he faintly heard the woman talking to herself, talking to Chen Song for a while, talking to Chen Changan for a while, and talking to the child in her belly for a while.
He had never been through such torture.
Fortunately, the east was already slightly white, and the tents were in front of them.
This woman's suffering has only just begun. (To be continued......)
