54. Chapter 54
The people who had been gathered together were counted and returned home.
This battle made Yunzhou City a half-empty city, and after a while, smoke rose from the city to burn the corpses.
When the surviving people talked about the king, they all showed fear.
Who doesn't know that King Yu is cold-blooded and cruel, whether it is Lao Tzu or his son, they all regard life as a mustard.
This time, the west left the country to invade, and Shazhou, which had no defense in the front, was directly abandoned. And the main garrison in Yunzhou City has long been emptied, and Yunzhou City is like a huge net, as if waiting for the army leaving the country to attack.
It's just that Rong Yixuan seems to have taken the first step and crushed the departing army of the enemy in advance.
In the evening, King Yu returned to the city with the garrison.
In the chaos of the army, there were always some generals who did not want to be sent to death who defected, and as soon as the battle was over, they were captured, hanged or beheaded. Even the generals of the small garrison who did not defect were dismissed from their posts and enslaved.
This old mansion must not be able to go back. The most dangerous place, perhaps the safest.
Bai Ze said that the army of the Tianyi Dynasty was bound to counterattack, and it was necessary to follow the army. Anyway, she was wearing a soldier's clothes, and it was also a way to blend in with the remnants of the army.
It's a pity that she is the thinnest and inconspicuous among the five big and three thick soldiers, and no one looks at her except for being sent to the room.
And Baize, when she was assigned, disappeared again.
Yunzhou City is backed by lofty mountains, except for the open west side and the passable east side, it is difficult to reach.
Behind the city, a large area of virgin woodland was joined by the branches of bare trees, and only the wide official road extended to the towering Yaohua Mountain to the east.
In the end, it was a well-trained regular army, and at night tents were erected one by one, and soon smoke rose one after another.
Outside the city, only Rong Yixuan lived, and King Yu lived in the city, and it seemed that the dead and wounded people had nothing to do with him.
Ruoyun walked through the tents with Chai He in her arms, and saw the largest and most spacious one in the center, trimmed with gold edges, and an eagle with flapping wings on its head.
She looked stunned.
Through this thick curtain, it is Rong Yixuan, right?
I still remember that he let her live well, I remember his resolute face and often cold eyebrows, and what he missed with her was not only sincerity.
As soon as she walked a few steps, several guards blocked her way and drove her away after a few scoldings.
She laughed dumbly.
This is indeed not the place where a "little person" like her comes from.
Leaving the capital, leaving the protection of the prince, she is really nothing, and there is such a distance between her and them.
Obviously, the eagle was close at hand, but she couldn't cross an inch.
Feeling melancholy, she looked at the darkened sky, and trotted into the tents of the cooks.
Someone had already squatted to burn the fire, she put down the bundle of dead branches heavily, moved her sore arms, and the person who burned the fire raised her face, and the familiar scar on her cheek made her exclaim.
"Captain Zhang!"
"It's you!"
The two pointed at each other at the same time, stunned for a moment before laughing.
"Why are you here?" Captain Zhang's young face was exhausted, and he was smoky gray, and his lips, which were already a little dry, were now cracked with blood.
Ruoyun squatted down beside him and tilted her head: "I...... He was separated from the large army, and later met the soldiers who left the country...... If you can't beat it, you hide...... Woo......"
She was making up a reason, but she was covered by Captain Zhang.
He glared at her and whispered a warning, "Don't die! If anyone knows you're running away, but—" said with a head-killing motion.
Fortunately, this martial artist was five big and three thick, and he didn't suspect that there was anything strange about the touch on her face and lips, but he felt that this short, thin and weak little soldier didn't feel that the sky was too thick.
Ruoyun shrunk her neck and said softly, "Then how did you get here?" ”
Captain Zhang immediately showed a helpless look, and said with a wry smile: "I don't know who knocked me out, and when I woke up, I was degraded to burn the fire on the charge of uselessness......
Ruoyun swallowed his saliva, he was doing a good job as a captain, if Bai Ze hadn't knocked him out, he wouldn't have fallen to this......
Captain Zhang sighed and said to her, "You don't have to call me Captain Zhang in the future, my name is Zhang Yu." ”
Ruoyun repeated it softly, and then couldn't help but smile and leaned back.
Zhang Yu?
Octopus!
Zhang Yuzhanger was puzzled, and blushed when she smiled like this: "What are you laughing at?" ”
"It's not ......" Ruoyun coughed and hurriedly asked, "Why did your father give you this name?" ”
"My family is poor, and my father hopes that I will be rich in the future, so I will be called Zhang Yu." He confessed, completely ignoring what the dirty-faced little soldier in front of him was referring to, "What about you?" ”
"I'm ......" Ruoyun rolled her eyes, "My name is Su Yun." ”
"Have you ever read a book?"
"Huh?" Ruoyun was startled, wondering why he asked.
Zhang Yu smiled and said, "You haven't read it, your family must have read it, only those who read can give the name of this cloud and rain." ”
After speaking, he became melancholy, fiddled with the firewood and sighed, "If only I could study......
Looking at his longing eyes looking at the firelight, Ruoyun's heart froze.
He just mentioned that his family is poor, and he must not be able to read, and if he joined the army at such an age, he is afraid that he will not be able to read in the future.
Although her father and mother are gone, she has lived carefree for 14 years, and her father of qin, chess, calligraphy and painting has invited the master to teach her carefully.
Compared with the poor who can't afford to read and the families who are forced to sell their children and daughters, God has treated her well.
A big hand slapped coldly on the shoulder, Ruoyun bared his teeth in pain, and listened to him say, "Su Yun, don't worry!" You and I are good brothers who share hardships for the rest of our lives! With me Zhang Yu, I will not ask anyone to bully you! ”
Ruoyun's heart was hot and nodded.
The fire in front of him burned brightly, and the blazing flames seemed to dispel the pain and gloom.
"General Zhao, please get up." In the main tent, Rong Yixuan picked up the general on the ground with both hands, looked respectful, waved his hand and retreated, leaving only Shuyan on the side.
At this moment, he took off his armor and only wore the lake blue shirt he usually wears, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, the corners of his eyes were cold, and the firelight against his handsome side face was bright and dark.
"Thank you, Lord Wang." General Zhao was wearing a military uniform, took off his helmet, the years were marked, his hair was gray, and he sat on his side.
"I've suffered General Zhao all these years." Rong Yixuan's gaze fell on his weather-beaten face, and his expression was gloomy.
Unexpectedly, General Zhao nodded a little, and when he raised it again, his face was already full of grief: "Lord, I Zhao Tian is fortunate to be able to save my life in the frontier." When the old general Xiao is alive, I have been born and died as a deputy general, and now that the old general is gone, only I, Zhao Tian, can hold a breath, and I only hope that the prince is good. Now that the prince has come to the border to retreat from the enemy, I will help the prince in whatever I say! ”
He was about to get up, but Rong Yixuan stretched out his hand to stop him: "General Zhao's words are serious, you are now stationed in the northwest and there is no emperor's order, it is already a risk to come to see this king, and you must not move the garrison." And in ancient times, a few people came back to fight, and the matter of fighting in the west was left to the king. ”
"Lord Wang......" General Zhao's face turned red instantly, and his expression turned from sorrow to annoyance, "How can Lord Wang say that?!" Back then, you yourself were still in danger, if you hadn't risked your life in the disaster of your relatives, how could I, Zhao Tian, stand here alive? This old man who was brave and brave in the king didn't see it with his own eyes, but he could assist the emperor in the general's door. This side is in turmoil, and if the prince doesn't take the opportunity to get rid of it, there will be endless troubles! ”
Rong Yixuan's face was cold, and he put the teacup he was holding back on the case, and said in a deep voice: "General Zhao's words are wrong, there is still something strange about this matter of Wang Zuo with a different surname, and no matter how strong this is in Wang, with the number of troops under him, once I fight, it will be useless to me." ”
"Will the prince just watch this great opportunity slip away?!" Zhao Tian sighed heavily, his tone was very impatient, and he glared at Rong Yixuan with a red face.
"If it reaches the ears of the royal brother, do you think that I, Prince Rong, still deserve it?" Rong Yixuan looked at him without the slightest intention of relenting.
"Lord Wang, is this greedy for life and afraid of death?" Zhao Tian was even more angry, panting, and his chest and beard fell together.
Shu Yan saw that he was about to fight, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "The old general is angry, the power of the capital is unknown, if you only win the border pass and defeat the king, what is the difference between it and the rogue who occupies the king's land?" It's hard to get things out of the bag, but it's easier to combine the inside and the outside, and it's ......."
He quickly glanced at Rong Yixuan's expression, gritted his teeth and said: "And the lower the war in the west, the better, the prince has a friend who is lost at the border, and he is comforting him, and the person has not yet been found, so it is not appropriate to make too much movement." ”
"Friends?!" Zhao Tian was stunned, and immediately raised his hand to pat the case, sighed heavily, glared at Rong Yixuan and said, "I haven't heard of the old man who makes the prince so obsessed, I'm afraid that which woman will make the prince forget!" ”
"This ......" the book was speechless, and he was busy looking at Rong Yixuan's expression, and he was bitter in his heart:
Since the last time the prince was out of shape to look for Miss Su, he could see that the prince was moved, otherwise he would not have protected Miss Su on the Yuan Festival and delayed meeting with him. He hoped that Miss Su was just lost and would come to this place.
Zhao Tian saw that Rong Yixuan was sitting still, so he simply got up and seemed to clench his fists seriously: "Lord Wang, there are thousands of women, there is no shortage of one, there is not much more, there are still no women in this world?" ”
Rong Yixuan only stared at him and didn't move, and when he heard this, he raised his eyebrows, opened his lips and said, "Oh? What if it is the woman specified by the emperor? ”
Seeing that he acquiesced, Zhao Tian said with a rude face: "Whoever this throne is, whoever that person belongs to!" ”
"General......" Shuyan made a gesture of silence and hurriedly stopped him.
Zhao Tiancai felt speechless and stood stupidly, but still twisted his neck with a straight face.
Rong Yixuan looked at him fixedly, and only after a long time did he pick up the teacup again, bowed his head and drank tea: "It is appropriate to plan for the long term and not move the troops, General Zhao will return to Qianzhou, and you will bring two people to Yunzhou to wait for the king, and I am afraid that things will change after a long time." This battle is not in a hurry, you know? ”
Zhao Tian looked at his solemn expression, speechless, and stiffened for a moment so he had to clench his fists and say: "But according to the orders of the prince, the old man will leave." ”
After he sent him off from the book and lifted the curtain, Rong Yixuan stretched out his fingers and pinched his eyebrows.
