Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Heart Can't Be One
"The banner of praise!"
**At the head of the city, several defenders suddenly pointed to the flags that appeared on the horizon in the distance and shouted loudly.
On this day, it was Niu Gao who was on duty at the head of the city, and when he heard this, he suddenly ran over from not far away, pushed away the defenders and looked forward to the battlements, **siphoned** his chin that already looked green, and grinned: "Straight lady thief, I'm finally back, this time it's refreshing." There is no left negotiation to discuss the right to discuss the past, and the half-day price can't figure out when to go north. I just decided to hit the fuck one by one! We're lucky to get the jackpot! ”
He said as he spoke, turned around and patted the shoulder of the soldier next to him vigorously, smiling so hard that he couldn't see his teeth. With his whole body dressed and armored, he strode down, stepping on the brick-clad city wall and making a clang, and there was really a tendency for the mountains to shake the ground.
This time, he followed Xiao Yan to the north, from Yue Fei to Niu Gao, and everyone won the lottery. Xiao Yan has always regarded them as his most descendants. rushed back from the camp from Guo Yaoshi, and Niu Gao was sent by the capital. ** Yizhou was victorious, and Niu Gao even fished a military officer who was a benevolent and brave lieutenant. The Shenwu Changsheng Army was established, and Xiao Yan promoted Niu Gao to the head of Yu Hou, the leader of the first cavalry command of the Shenwu Changsheng Army. At that time, he was still a soldier who dared to fight, but now he is an officer of the Song Army, with more than 200 cavalry under his command, and it is also extremely important to put it in that army.
Although you are not sure about their ability, they also have an old man transferred by the Chang Shengjun as their assistant. But Niu Gao has also felt deeply grateful, and he did not participate in the death battle in Yizhou, which made Niu Gao feel that he could not be repaid! He's a straightforward guy. Whoever values him and who treats him well, Niu Gao and others are eager to repay him tenfold. When Xiao Yannan returned to the army to take the oath, he was the most uncontrollable. just snapped his fingers to calculate when Xiao Yan would come back, fearing that Xiao Yan would not be able to fight for the first success.
Yesterday, Xiao Yanchuan had arrived in advance**.
Xiao Yan was humble and controlled the identity of the former military commander, and led the leader Wu Chang to win all the troops and one part of the victory army. All the white spine soldiers have more than 4,000 horsemen. The most powerful cavalry group that formed the Northern Expedition of the Great Song Dynasty was the front priest of the whole army, and Xuan Shuai also gave Xiao Yan a cheap act without the order of Xuan Shuai's mansion. As long as the timing is right, you can go straight to Yanjing's special grace!
When Han Shizhong heard the news, he frowned at that time, but he didn't speak. Niu Gao clapped his hands happily at that time and shouted: "Enter the mother." A person's ability, his ambitions in life, and his life ambitions always have a place. Grace is praised, and there is a time to reciprocate! This time I went north, I just want to be the former priest of the former drill! I Niu Gao is going to be the first to set foot on Yanjing City! ”
Now that he saw Xiao Yan's banner finally appear in sight, how could he not be happy to fall over and be elated?
The Shenwu Changsheng sergeant at the head of the city watched Niu Gao's black whirlwind rush away, and then watched the banner in the distance gradually approach, and on the horizon, there were already black cavalry with black pressure, all tall and big. That horse was majestic, and I knew that it was the most elite cavalry unit of the Great Song Dynasty who didn't know how many battle formations I had seen. The red tassels on the top of the helmet were surging like blood, and the sound of people shouting and neighing horses spread far and wide.
Xiao Yan brought such a large cavalry army over, and the Great Song Dynasty was a young horse, how could these soldiers of the Shenwu Victorious Army not know? Here, under the banner of Xiao Yan, there are such as Xu Ma Huben, and the weight of their task and the depth of their sustenance can be imagined. This time I went north, I don't know how many tough battles I have to fight, but I know this Xiao Yan, their new commander, but he dares to take 400 soldiers to fight tens of thousands of horses against Xiao!
Everyone looked at each other, look at the murderous cavalry in the distance, behind these cavalry, I don't know how many large troops, loaded with an astonishing number of military equipment, are being transported by the brigade of people to roll up the sky and dust straight towards the **. A few pawns shook their heads and said straight, just beat it! Anyway, everyone is rolling out of the pile of dead people, isn't it the same as who is working hard? Everyone has eaten this bowl of rice all these years", ......, now look at the clothes and armor on their bodies, and the reward they carry in their arms. Is it what you could have imagined when you were still a victorious army? Xiao Yan made miraculous achievements, and even the soldiers with these divine martial arts and victorious soldiers had a good armor, and some light riders even had good horse lances. The degree of food and clothing is not more than ten times that of the original. It's better to work hard with such a commander than to struggle to survive when you were resentful of the army, right?
Not to mention, now that Song is strong and weak, it has become a foregone conclusion, if this war can end smoothly. Maybe everyone can really enjoy peace in peace, and even go to Bianliang, which is said to be like heaven on earth!
Between the words of these Shenwu and victorious soldiers, they all used these words to explain. In fact, behind the scenes, everyone is really willing to work for Xiao Yan, not to mention that they understand each other.
I'd rather lead a horse for a good man than be an ancestor for a Lai man. To survive in troubled times, what you need is for the coach to have courage, determination, and indomitable determination and will! In the battle of Kefu Zhuoyi Erzhou, Xiao Yan has perfectly demonstrated his will as the commander of the troubled times.
Following such a commander to march and fight, he can stand up with hair all over his body, and when he raises his arms and exhales, only the blood surges, and he follows forward! And it is said that this Xiao Yan is also the identity of the Southern Returnee, and he naturally has a closeness with everyone, since everyone still wants to eat this bowl of bloody rice, the official family of the Great Song Dynasty has to beat Yanjing down, and everyone will follow Xiao Yan all the way forward!
Looking at Niu Gao's elated and dancing appearance, these city head soldiers couldn't help but look at each other and laugh lowly, and in the distance, under the banner of Xiao Yan, a large group of people bowed and flew into the air, and at this time, everyone's hearts were unconsciously rising, since they were going to fight. Then go north early, finish the fight early, and live early!
Xiao Yan was surrounded by a large group of knights, and he had already seen the ** city wall from a distance. The repairs of these days** are very different from the dilapidated appearance when he robbed the city that day. With the strong material support of the Great Song Dynasty, the city wall has been repaired. The guards on the city are stacked on top of each other, and the sentry posts outside the city are stacked and fierce, and the guards at the head of the city are clearly clothed and armored. Jiong Fei was the original weather.
This is the biggest support for the Song army to go north again. These days, God knows how many supplies are coming, and almost the entire city has been converted into warehouses. Stacking the grain and grass supplies for the army. On the Liu-Li River, the fleet was just looking at each other, and several leveled docks were full of local refugees waiting to unload their cargo. **Peace, the refugees in the diaspora here are also ridiculous**. Relying on the strength of selling a handful of strength, they can finally eat, and they are not allowed to live in peace, and the sheds of these refugees are everywhere. After a few days of eating, I was a little angry, and I could hear the laughter of children who didn't understand the world.
Watching their army coming, the snotty children just held hands and watched from afar, while the adults of the refugees had a look of awe on their faces.
Many people are already crawling in the dust. The Great Song Dynasty is already the master of this land. ”
The majesty of the brigade that came this time surpassed any elite Liao army they had ever seen!
This elite soldier is the proud white spine soldier of the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty.
The remaining hundred cavalry of the remaining army of the white spine soldiers were divided into three commands, and the sweeps were under Xiao Yan's command.
These Great Song Dynasty rode heavy horses, only rolling up smoke and dust in the sky. Behind them, there were more than two auxiliary soldiers to transport the horse food for the war horses for them, and the heavy armor and blade armor they wore on the war horses were all the painstaking efforts of the Western Army for many years. Xiao Yan crossed north with three hundred white boat soldiers. These white-spine soldiers did not have all the belongings of the heavy cavalry, which was equivalent to using them as half light cavalry. Now the whole army is marching, this majestic and murderous atmosphere, as long as people who know a little about military affairs, they are all dizzying!
In this era, as long as it is used properly, it is almost invincible! And to build such a heavy ride out. During this period of hard work, it is even more amazing, the Great Song Dynasty does not produce good horses, and it is ten times more difficult to accumulate such a heavy horse, and now it is all under Xiao Yan's command!
These white-clad soldiers have seen the ** city wall from afar. I don't know who it was, but I let out a cheer first. "The thief bird, finally got to the ground, repaired for three or two days, and the straight mother and thief went to Yanjing! Don't look at the sky or the ground, this time, I said nothing and turned around and went south, in the Baigou River, our white-framed soldiers were really defeated, only by snatching Yanjing, it was enough to return to the capital! ”
Hearing this shout, the surrounding Bai Ting soldiers and soldiers all cheered and laughed, and the sound of people shouting and neighing horses was mixed together, and the beggars rose to the extreme, and they were originally sent to follow Yang Keshi as the back town. Watching those guys in Huanqingjun grab the credit. Now that they have become pioneers, they have lived up to the prestige of the white hawthorn soldiers, how can they not be elated?
The morale of the military is so high, Xiao Yan uploaded it in wap.01616.\c\om1|6|k's official signature macho four dishes
Under the arch guard of such a strong army, his face stinks like stool.
All the way through, his face was like this. Even the little mute who followed him back and forth between ** and Xiongzhou, squeezing his face into a pig's head, couldn't make him much happier.
This time I went back to Xiongzhou, and I really lost a lot of money, and I put such a scene for the old man!
On the occasion of parting, Tong Guan feasted the guests, and among the planters, there was also Yao Guyang Keshi, who took turns to come up to Xiao Yan to toast and say a good word of praise and prayer. Xiao Yan always subconsciously looked at Tong Guan, and Tong Guan always smiled disapprovingly on his face. But everyone knows that Xiao Yan offended Tong Guan a lot this time, and I don't know how to resolve this knot!
Speaking of which, Tong Guan is really not bad for himself, one credit, one reward, with his status, he has done enough. But Xiao Yan broke the connection with the old and small races, as well as the forces behind them, in front of him!
Xiao Yan could only smile bitterly in his heart, forget it. Go back early** and snatch Yanjing back. If this great achievement of Fuyan is successfully obtained, everyone will always have a chance to bargain in the future, such as "......, why should you force yourself on the road of victory?" Why do you always choose the hardest things to do?
Forget it, just ask for a peace of mind" ......, if An Sheng's Bai Zhu soldiers were handed over like this, Xiao Yan estimated that his mood would not be so bad. The Seed Master Dao did not send a special commander to these three generals who fully commanded the White Spine Army.
It's all handed over to Xiao Yan for dispatch. However, he stuffed one of his military senators, and in the name of helping Xiao Yan to lead this strong army. This senator is not an outsider, it is the fate of having a side in ** at the beginning, and he sees Xiao Yan's heart clearly. Maybe the idea of separating himself and Tong Guan this time was also from this kid.
It's that Bianliangzi Fang Teng!
At that time, Xiao Yan wanted to scold the street, and also assisted him in commanding the white soldiers. This kid is only afraid that this is the first time he has seen what the white soldiers look like!
This Fang Teng, who is smiling right now, is just by his side, Xiao Yan doesn't want to pay attention to him for the past few days. Fang Teng didn't care, he just looked around with a smile all day long, selling his teeth to be whiter.
Fang Teng stuffed in, and even Tong Guan couldn't object. Since Xiao Yan asked for the White Spine Soldier, Fang Teng was nominally the Senator of the Jingyuan Army. Jing Yuanjun sent a person to coordinate under Xiao Yan, is it justifiable, who let Xiao Yan ask for this white spine soldier in the first place, and Tong Guan nodded and agreed?
The people in the bureau used their butts to know what kind of character Fang Teng was standing behind. Since he appeared next to Xiao Yan, Tong Guan naturally stuffed a person in, whether it was for precautions or not. Whether it's surveillance or surveillance, that's all the proper meaning of the question. Naturally, this person will not be an outsider, it is Zhao Xuanzan, Zhao Liang's heir, who is not pleasing to Xiao Yan's eyes.
There are so two people who follow him all the way, a fox face is a harmless smile all day long, and a short and fat man looks at him coldly with a gloomy face, Xiao Yan is caught in the middle, how can his love be good? For both of them, he avoided them. When I was camping, I saw a figure that flashed far away, and I only asked to see all of them and called them sick, so depressed that I almost pointed to the noses of the two guys and shouted: "***, Yanjing Laozi is not going, whoever likes to go will go!" Lao Tzu's exploits are enough to return to Bianliang for a few years, and he will not starve to death! Four years later, Lao Tzu escaped faster than anyone else, and when the time comes, everyone will meet in Lin'an, and I will invite you to have a supper! ”
came all the way with a stinky face, and when he saw the ** city wall, Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, start the war early! Take Yanjing, who is willing to stir up among you, who is raised by a girl!
When the people were jubilant, Ma Kuo gathered around Xiao Yan and went to the front army one by one, and naturally he would not be missing his character. These days, Ma Kuo is also silent, and he doesn't know what he is thinking. He Xiao Yan was almost speechless. No one knows why he is still so depressed that this Northern Expedition has fulfilled Ma Kuo's life ambition. "It's finally here, we are first, we are quiet, we can take care of ourselves, Brother Xiao, let's set off as soon as possible! Traveling one day earlier may be more beneficial to future wars! ”
Ma Kuo looked into the distance and just said this lightly. Xiao Yan glanced back at him in surprise. Ma Kuo didn't open his mouth for a few days, why did he come over and say this? Even if they are all cavalry, they can move much faster, but thousands of men and horses are dispatched together, and they still have to be battalions step by step, and the Song army brigade behind the mouth is all foot soldiers, and the march is more serious.
Even if Xiao Yan tidies up here for more than ten days before setting off, it will be too late. The action was too hasty, and there was a danger of going deep alone. And this time, Xiao Yan made up his mind that the main force battle would be handed over to Qing T※※ This meaning, he didn't discuss it with Ma Kuo at the beginning, but now Ma Kuo Why did he suddenly come up with this?
Xiao Yan looked at Ma Kuo, but this heroic young officer didn't look at him, just looked into the depths of the cloudy sky to the north. "Brother Ma, what are you worried about?"
Ma Kuo smiled bitterly: "There is no one to send an army, naturally there are steps, I know this, I just hope that Brother Xiao will be faster." There's no need to wait until everything is ready...... Also, can I ask Brother Xiao for a soldier to guard the north of the army? It's all for me to ride lightly, but it's a pity that we don't have the far stop like the Liao people here. You can put it out in a few cars......"
Xiao Yan reacted instantly, maybe he was not as familiar with the depths of this era as Ma Kuo. But when it comes to IQ, Xiao Yan is no worse than anyone else, not to mention, he knows all aspects of this period of history better than everyone else! "Are you worried about the Jurchen? The Jurchens will not go south at this moment! ”
Xiao Yan's tone was just categorical.
Ma Kuo smiled bitterly: "I've been to the Jurchens" ......, the courage of the Jurchens, I'm afraid that Brother Xiao is unimaginable, "I'm really in awe of them...... I don't know why, I can't let go of this heart......"
Xiao Yan looked at Ma Kuo fixedly, and just smiled reluctantly: "Okay, Brother Ma, when the former army is deployed to the north, I will give you a hundred horses, how about the north sentinel guard?" If you want to leave early, you can do as well. You pick the best choice! ”
Ma Kuo teased Xiao Yan, looking a little embarrassed: "One hundred horses, I know that this is not appropriate." But Brother Xiao, after thinking about it, I have already calculated repeatedly, the northern sentinel was released, and he also bypassed Yanjing, which was hundreds of miles, so many passes to pass, and it was impossible to ride without five hundred...... I have never asked Brother Xiao for anything, for the sake of living and dying together all the way, can you give me 500 rides? ”
Ma Kuo, Ma Kuo, even you don't stop! Xiao Yan only felt depressed for a few days, and they were about to explode together. At this time, Ma Kuo told him about this! I am facing the scenery now, but in fact, the situation is not necessarily much better. He has been too deeply involved in the struggle of the Bianliang court implicated in the Northern Expedition! The only way to stand in the Northern Expedition is the great achievement of Kefu Zhuoyi. And if you want to resolve Tong Guan's heart knot and gain a foothold in the Great Song Dynasty in the future, you can only rely on the great merit of grabbing Yanjing again!
Divide 500 light horses out, how many light horses can you use on hand? The five hundred men were divided. I can't ignore it, how many people and horses do I get, and how many people can I stab down if I focus on the direction of Yanjing? It is precisely because you, Ma Kuo, have followed Lao Tzu all the way, that you should know Lao Tzu's current situation!
Lao Tzu has already told you that the Jurchens will not go south, do you have to tell you plainly that Lao Tzu is from a thousand years later, and the history books say that the Jurchens will not go south at this time!
These words were just endured in Xiao Qians. He waved his horsewhip fiercely, and just said: "Brother Ma, let's discuss this matter again when we enter the **!" Draw 500 soldiers and horses, it is absolutely difficult to do! ”
As soon as the words fell, he had already hit his horse and rushed out. Zhang Xian was his personal general, and he glanced back at Ma Kuo, who was standing there in a daze, but he rode his horse and followed dozens of knights, rolling up like a dragon. Leaves a lot of smoke in the back.
These days, Yue Fei is also silent. His rank is already quite high, and the military officer has been increased to the seventh rank. Sent to be the deputy capital of the Shenwu Victorious Army? Yue Fei was doubly vigilant, he didn't have the slightest smug appearance in front of the white-framed soldiers, but instead observed and learned the rules and practices of these elite heavy horsemen of the Great Song Dynasty all the way, as well as their marching habits and behaviors. When he set out, he was always the first to be on the front road, and after setting up camp, he was there every time he made a night patrol. When it comes to this young general of the Yue family, the white soldiers are secretly picking their thumbs, and the achievement is like this, although there is Xiao Yan's grace, this young general of the Yue family is by no means a thing in the pool!
He is so close to Xiao Yan, but when he is fine, he never wants Xiao Yan to make up. Pose as a descendant.
Just in the crowd, go with the crowd. Just silently observed all the qiē, even Xiao Yan.
Seeing that Ma Kuo and Xiao Yan seemed to have an argument. Xiao Yan walked away in a hurry. Yue Fei then hit his horse forward, came to the side of Ma Kuo with a wry smile, and said in a low voice: "Ma Xuanzan, how is it?" ”
Ma Kuo shook his head slowly and said in a low voice, "It's nothing. Brother Xiao is the coach of this trip, I really talk too much...... How can a manager not make up his own mind? Maybe I'm really thinking too much, but I'm really not at ease, I can't solve it, I'm really worried, there will be a sudden thunder and lightning in the north that will change the color of the heavens and the earth! ”
Yue Fei listened quietly and asked thoughtfully: "Is the Jurchen really that strong?" ”
Ma Kuo also whipped the horse, and turned around and only said: "Ten times stronger than you imagined!" ”
Before the words fell, he had already galloped out. The momentum is so fast, it seems that I want to vent all the depression in ** at this moment!
Yue Fei just pursed his lips and looked at Ma Kuo's back, his eyes were full of eagerness.
Fang Teng was in the team, looking at the traces from afar, and just smiled: "This Xiao Yan, I'm just afraid that I'm thinking too much now...... when I crossed the north." Kefu Zhuoyi Erzhou, I'm afraid that there is no such suffering...... If the heart can't be one, how can you sort out this chaotic cloud clearly? Let's see if you can get through it! ”
Xiao Yan pursed his lips, just beat his horse, left the brigade with dozens of knights, and went straight to the ** city gate. His banners were everywhere, and the outside of the ditch had long since given way to the road, and the drawbridge had been lowered inside. **The south gate was wide open, and Niu Gao's stout figure was already at the door, and he couldn't wait to come up and kiss Xiao Yan when he arrived.
Xiao Yan took the lead and approached, he couldn't see Xiao Yan's gloomy face, he just raised his voice and shouted: "Praise!" ”
Xiao Yanzheng was not angry, and when he saw Niu Gao's grinning and heartless appearance, Gu Shi replied: "Praise you!" Who asked you to pick it up? The order will go down, the government will discuss the matter, and we will go north! The whole army, either take Yanjing, or die under Yanjing! Lao Tzu only needs Yanjing City! Nothing else!
