Chapter 37 is Wu Shaoyang
(There's one more shift tonight.) οΌ
After all, the goal of walking is smaller than that of horseback, and along the way, I encountered several officers and cavalry who were galloping with torches in the snow, and they all passed without danger. But before Wu Shaoyang had time to catch his breath, they found out badly that they were turning around in the snow and getting lost.
It is easy to walk in circles on snowy days, especially at night, and you will unconsciously turn back to the original point while walking, Wu Shaoyang has returned to the grove where he just hid twice with the support of his own soldiers, which made Wu Shaoyang can't help beating his chest and scolding loudly:
"Is God going to kill me?"
The words that cried out were quickly swept away by the biting north wind, and several people couldn't help but shiver, their teeth were so cold that their teeth were so loud that the soldiers around them trembled and comforted the trembling Wu Shaoyang and said:
"Dashuai, don't be discouraged, there is no endless road. The Major General is still waiting for you to save him! β
In a word, Wu Shaoyang no longer cried sadly, and continued to look for the road to Langshan with the support of his own soldiers. On such a cold and snowy night, people will freeze to death in the wild, and Wu Shaoyang himself doesn't want to die so embarrassed. Sure enough, a few people who learned to be smart found the way by a flash of fire, but the question is, which way is Langshan?
Wu Shaoyang, who was heartbroken, pointed to a direction and said:
"Go this way!"
After walking for a long time, several people were covered in snow, their legs, hands, faces, and even their entire bodies were unconscious, and only a trace of heat remained in their chests. He was wearing cotton clothes, but the cotton clothes had already been soaked with his sweat in the running around, and now he was freezing cold** against the same cold** body. Wu Shaoyang's eyes were already blurred, and he felt that he needed to explain the future. He said very politely and emotionally in a weak voice:
"Brothers, stop. I can't do it anymore, my eyes are blurry enough to see a light in front of me. Come, stop, I have a few words for you. β
The pro-soldiers also responded in a weak voice:
"Dashuai, so are we. Our eyes are blurred enough to see the light in front of us! β
What the? Wu Shaoyang suddenly stirred, pulled out his stiff hand, stiffly touched his stiff face, shook off the snow on his face, and rubbed his eyelids. Kneading this movement is now too difficult for him. When I opened my eyes and looked again, there was a light in front of me, and under the light, there was a row of soldiers, and a row of bows and crossbows were aimed at them. A voice pierced Wu Shaoyang's stiff ears and asked:
"Who's coming?"
It's a Caizhou accent, it's a Caizhou accent! Not only Wu Shaoyang, but also several pro-soldiers were excited, trying to move their joints, but they only heard the creaking of armor. Wu Shaoyang put one arm on his arms and pushed the soldiers away. In fact, he didn't know if he pushed it away, because he didn't feel it at all when his hand reached out and didn't reach anywhere. Wu Shaoyang stood still, trying to gather the remaining heat in his body, and shouted in his loudest voice:
"A certain is the deputy ambassador of the Changyi Army, the envoy of the soldiers and horses, and Wu Shaoyang, the assassin of Shenzhou!"
A gust of wind came from the opposite side, blocking Wu Shaoyang's words in his stomach, and by the way, he poured the wind in his stomach, Wu Shaoyang's internal organs seemed to be frozen all of a sudden, which made Wu Shaoyang feel painful, but the other side still asked again:
"What did you say?"
Wu Shaoyang had to desperately gather energy and shouted again:
"It's Wu Shaoyang!"
may have been short, this time the wind didn't have time to block his words back, and the five words "Wu Shaoyang" were clearly heard on the opposite side, and another surprised voice came from the other side:
"Is it really Vice Marshal Wu? The last general is Hou WeiqingΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
Wu Shaoyang couldn't hear the following words. As mentioned in all books, Wu Shaoyang's eyes darkened and he fainted happily. He was plunged into boundless darkness.
The voices of "Da Shuai" and "Da Shuai" sounded in several snowdrifts around Wu Shaoyang one after another. Hou Weiqing led the soldiers to greet him.
By the time Wu Shaoyang woke up, there was no longer boundless darkness in front of him. There was a hazy light in front of me, and steaming braziers, medicine jars, water, food, and a few faces full of surprise. As will be written in all books, Wu Shaoyang looked at all this with confused eyes, and asked hesitantly:
"I, where am I?"
A burst of bad breath came, and an excited voice said:
"Dashuai, we are in Langshan now. We were saved by General Hou Weiqing. β
It turned out that Hou Weiqing found that the official army was dispatched very frequently that night, and it did not stop even in the middle of the night, and Hou Weiqing, who knew that Wu Shaoyang had broken through from Shenzhou, suspected that the official army was chasing and killing the remnants of Wu Shaoyang, so he braved the wind and snow to lead the army out of the city to search for and respond, and on the way he also fought a few battles with the official army, and finally the emperor lived up to his wishes and saved Wu Shaoyang back. Embarrassed, with a sense of happiness for the rest of his life, Wu Yuanqing gradually remembered what had happened, but the expression on his face was still dull, and after thinking for a while, he said:
"How long did so-and-so sleep?"
Pro-Soldier Road:
"Dashuai, you've been asleep for two days."
Wu Shaoyang was agitated and sat up from the bed suddenly. Lost voice:
"What? What about Hou Weiqing? β
The man next to him replied:
"Back to the deputy marshal, our general has to come to see you four or five times a day, but in the past two days, the official army has increased a lot of troops outside the city, the general Dao New Year is approaching, and most of the officers and soldiers are guest troops, and they must want to end the war before the year, and it is estimated that the snow will be able to re-attack the city, so in the past two days, the people have been urged to strengthen the city defense and run diligently to the city. Now I'm patrolling the East Side. Adjutant Marshal, do you want to call our general back? β
Down-and-out like this, Wu Shaoyang, who is called a marshal or a deputy marshal, has no heart to care, after all, his position is deputy ambassador. Wu Shaoyang had other things to worry about, and continued to ask:
"Why, didn't General Hou receive an order from Ben Shuai?"
Thinking that it must be, even if it is not Hou Weiqing's subordinates, he may not be able to know, so without waiting for an answer, he ordered:
"Hurry up and invite your general to meet Ben Shuai!"
The waiter bowed and said:
"Yes, the little one will send someone to find the general back. Wu Shuai, do you want to use some porridge first? β
A sentence aroused the hunger in Wu Shaoyang's stomach, so he nodded, and a bowl of fragrant porridge came to him, and a pair of crispy hands also arrived in front of him. What a sweet porridge.
The porridge is sweet, people are hungry, and soon, with side dishes, two bowls of porridge were eaten by Wu Shaoyang under the service of the maid. Langshan is a small city, and not long after Wu Shaoyang finished eating porridge, Hou Weiqing came back. Before Hou Weiqing came back, Wu Shaoyang had already asked several civil officials about Dong Chongzhen's behavior in Caizhou, of course, it was the official version of Caizhou.
Seeing Wu Shaoyang sitting on the Hu bed, Hou Weiqing knelt down on one knee without saying a word, made a big salute, and said:
"The last general will see the deputy marshal!"
Although he was so down, Hou Weiqing was still so respectful, which made Wu Shaoyang very satisfied. Hou Weiqing was referring to Wu Shaoyang's official position, and he didn't know that he was already the actual principal of Huaixi. Therefore, Wu Shaoyang was not angry with Hou Weiqing. Wu Shaoyang's hands and feet were frostbitten, he had just woken up from a coma, and his body was very weak, otherwise he would have gone to help Hou Weiqing, but it was indeed a good feeling to watch the general kneel down in front of him and salute. Maybe the eldest brother is determined to cut off for this, right? At this time, Wu Shaoyang remembered Wu Shaocheng. As long as this battle is fought, Yuanji can still be saved, and Huaixi is still surnamed Wu, but it is Wu Shaoyang's Wu, not Wu Yuanqing's Wu. Wu Shaoyang then thought, the smile on his face became thicker, he was still very confident in the combat power of the Huaixi Army. When I thought about it like this, I didn't feel any sorry for Wu Shaocheng in my heart. You can betray Li Xilie, Chen Xianqi, you can betray the imperial court, and of course there is no need for me to be loyal to your son at this time. Big brother, this is the truth you taught me to respect the strong.
"Weiqing is back, hurry up, thank you so much this time."
Wu Shaoyang said softly. Hou Weiqing stood up obediently and said:
"Deputy Marshal Hugh wants to say so, and the torture is clear. The rescue was too late, but Qing was already very sad. The marshal is seriously ill, and the deputy marshal is the pillar of Huaixi, and it is Hou Weiqing's honor to be able to serve the deputy marshal. β
Wu Yuanqing was not mentioned in or out of the words. Wu Shaoyang felt the need to test it again, and said:
"But be cautious. A certain is just ordered to assist the young marshal. β
Even if Hou Weiqing didn't know that Wu Yuanqing was more than lucky, after seeing the appointment sent by Caizhou, he also knew that there were some things that could not be said nonsense. Hou Weiqing immediately replied:
Having said that, only listening to the soldiers, they were willing to fight under the command of the deputy commander. I also ask the deputy marshal not to have any scruples for the young marshal, although he gave orders to my Langshan soldiers. The order of the deputy marshal, I, Langshan soldiers, have nothing to say, and I will not even frown when I carry it out. β
This is really what everyone loves to hear, not to mention that Wu Shaoyang is very confident in his prestige in the army? It seems that Hou Weiqing can already rest assured. Wu Shaoyang no longer dwelled on this topic, and instead asked:
"Weiqing, what's the situation outside the city?"
Hou Weiqing immediately frowned and said:
"Deputy marshal, it's not optimistic. I don't know if the officers and soldiers knew that the deputy marshal had moved to Langshan, and the increase in troops in the past few days was quite large. According to the report of Tanma, outside the city, the officers and troops built two new battalions, and at least two brigades of 5,000 soldiers and horses were entered. Together with the original soldiers and horses, there were at least more than 10,000 people under Langshan City, and it was observed that the officers and troops were moving towards the two wings, and there was a plan to attack the fences on our periphery and encircle Langshan. The handsome banner of Li Yu, the head of the Shannan Road march, appeared fifteen miles away the day before yesterday. There are only a little more than 3,000 soldiers in the city, and it is very difficult to defend. In order to shrink the force, several watchtowers on the periphery have already given up. β
Wu Shaoyang nodded and asked again:
"How's the war going elsewhere?"
Hou Weiqing replied:
"According to the battle report sent from Caizhou the day before yesterday, seven days ago, shortly after the defeat of Jiadian, Adie Guangyan had already led an army of 40,000 to claim that 70,000 were advancing into Huiqu and were building a city opposite Huiqu. Deputy Envoy Dong has rushed back from Caizhou to preside over Huiqu. After the arrival of Li Wentong, the new defense envoy of Shouzhou and the training envoy of the capital regiment, he had already recruited 3,000 villagers who were good at fighting to form a temporary brigade, and a total of 8,000 of the 4,000 elite soldiers who had already been in Shouzhou and transferred from Xue Ping also left for Gwangju seven days ago. On our side, since Wu Shuai took retreat as an advance and gave up Shenzhou, it has been difficult for Langshan's Tanma to go out, except for about 12,500 troops in Langshan, the remaining troops in Shannan Province are estimated to attack Wufang and other places one by one, and the main force is most likely to have entered Caizhou, forming a situation of encirclement with Adie Guangyan. β
After Wu Shaoyang was besieged, he had very little understanding of the battle situation, and some of what he knew came from the shouts of the officials and soldiers under the city, and after he escaped, he had no chance to understand the progress of the war. I can't believe that the war has deteriorated to such an extent. After a moment, he asked:
"After being besieged for so long, I didn't know that the battle situation had deteriorated so much. But Qing, in your opinion, what should we do now? β
Hou Weiqing said:
"Deputy marshal, in the opinion of the last general, at present, our army should abandon all the barriers in Langshan and Shenzhou, and the whole army should return to Caizhou, according to the confrontation between Jiancheng and the official army, as long as it lasts for a few months, there may be a turnaround."
