Chapter 51: Autumn Wind and Frost
Youzhou, Jicheng.
The autumn wind has not gone, the frost has hit early, and the entire Jicheng is immersed in a joyful atmosphere.
In autumn and July, Liang Hou Huan sent an army of 150,000 to attack You.
At the end of autumn and August, the Liang army had conquered Jicheng, the capital of Youzhou, which meant that the entire Yandi was already in the bag of the Liang army.
Youzhou is bitterly cold, and there is no need to continue fighting in the cold winter, which is a good thing for ordinary soldiers. If it goes well, they will be able to receive the reward and go home to see their wives and children before the winter begins.
Outside Jicheng, the army is in camp, it is noon at this time, and soldiers can be seen everywhere killing pigs and sheep, roasting fires and cooking soup.
The Liang army was strictly disciplined, restrained by generals, and did not harass the local people.
Different from the joy of the soldiers outside the city, in the Zhengbei General's Mansion, Jingyun's residence in the past, is now home to the high-ranking generals and staff of the Liang army. Their faces were dark, and most of them did not say a word.
Huan Wu stood in front of Jing Yun's desk, gently stroking the dust on it. The heavy texture came, and Huan Wu's face was expressionless.
Although the prestige of Liang Hou Huanwu spread all over the world, but when you look closely, he is not so shocking, but there is no difference between him and the old farmers in the fields.
The thick palms are full of calluses, and his dark face is full of vicissitudes, Huan Wu is not tall, and his appearance is not outstanding, only a pair of eyes seem to be burning with flames from time to time, never extinguished.
There was a soft knock outside the door, and a young man walked in.
Unlike Huan Wu, this young man is tall and handsome. He walked behind Huan Wu and bowed.
"Liang Hou!"
"Zongshi is here!"
This young man is a literary figure beside Huan Wu, named Meng Qing, whose name is Zongshi. The official position is not high, but he is a close person around Huan Wu, and he will definitely soar in the future.
"I have two letters in front of me, look at them!"
Meng Qing glanced at it, and the two letters on the table had been unsealed and placed on the table, surrounded by a thick layer of ash, staggered from the corners of the letters, leaving a small triangular clean area. Obviously, these two letters have been sitting here for a long time, and Liang Hou has already read them.
"Obey orders!"
With curiosity, Meng Qing bowed down and picked up the two letters, and the cover read: Yang Xianjing, the prime minister of Shu, presents the general Jingyunshu of Peking University!
Meng Qing sighed in his heart and took out the letter from it. After a glance, his brows were already furrowed, and when he finished reading it all, Meng Qing exclaimed in his heart, and then he had many doubts, but his face was as calm as ever.
"Zongshi is a young genius, a self-proclaimed hero in the world, and there are only a few people who can see it. How do you feel after reading these two letters today? ”
"The lord has fought in the north and south for more than ten years, and has destroyed countless princes. In the past, Gu was sent down to the Yellow Spring by the lord. Those who survive today are naturally no more than Erer. ”
"Hahaha!" Huan Wu laughed, turned around and looked at Meng Qing, who looked down with a respectful face, "Zong Shi has been fighting with me these days, but he has become more and more calm, and he has lost the edges and corners of the past. ”
"Qing boy Meng Lang underestimated the heroes of this world. When I saw these two letters today, I knew what I had said in the past, and I smiled generously. ”
"Yang Xian can also be regarded as the son of my deceased. What do you think of him? ”
"If the lord wants to achieve great things, this person will be killed!"
"Why?"
Huan Wu asked.
"The strategy set by Master Wei is to use this Yan Land as bait and hang Jingyun's Youning Iron Horse. Yandi is prosperous, but for the lord, it is just the icing on the cake. Jingyun is a person, although he looks strong, he looks like a woman. And Yang Xian's two letters directly provoked the anger and fighting spirit in Jingyun's heart. Now Jingyun retreated to the bitter cold of Liaoxi with Youning Iron Cavalry, if the lord conquers again, one will be resentful, and the other will be difficult. The morale is very strong, and most of them have been lost before the battle. Yang Xian's two letters postponed the great cause of the lord's domination of the world for at least three years. ”
"Yes! Three years! ”
Huan Wu sighed lightly, he was already old, if he could capture Youzhou this time and obtain Jingyun's Youning Iron Cavalry, then within ten years, he was confident that he would be able to dominate the world.
And now, it is the Liang army that can achieve the results of the current strategic plan in three years, and the situation in the world will inevitably change at that time, and it may take 15 or even 20 years to unify the world.
Huan Wu is old, how many decades can there be in the remaining days?
is in Hu Chen, and his heart is towards Zhou Que. Su Jing has the festival of shepherding, and Geng Di has the ambition of swaying. The thieves are greedy, and the four seas are powerless to exhaust their desires. The Son of Heaven is in danger, how can the shepherd help him?
"What a literary style! If Jingyun really learns from Su Jing Gengdi, shepherd sheep on the grassland, and put on the song. I'm afraid that it will be difficult to see my Xia family riding again and galloping through the Central Plains! ”
Huan Wu chuckled. Where is this faith, it is clearly a knife, stabbed into his chest fiercely, cutting off his hope of dominating the world in his lifetime.
Meng Qing always bowed to his side and did not say a word.
Huan Wu's gaze shifted from the letter to Meng Qing's body, and he secretly said in his heart: Yang Xian should be killed, but should the kid in front of him stay?
"Lord!"
There was a sharp shout outside the hall, and Huan Wu's attention turned from his contemplation.
But seeing that surrounded by generals, Lu Qingfei walked in with a young man who was embarrassed.
"Why are you back, Ziyu?"
With a sad cry, Li Yu knelt on the ground, took out the strip of cloth from his arms, and handed it to Huan Wu.
"Li Yu, the son of Li Bi, who was engaged in the governance of Yizhou, was specially ordered by the Wei master to present it to the Marquis of Liang. Wangliang Hou avenges Master Wei and my father! ”
"Legacy?"
When Huan Wu heard this, he stumbled and almost didn't stand firm. He took the blood-stained strip of cloth, and the words on it were all written in blood, and the words were terrifying.
It has been a few months since God was gone. The affairs of Yizhou were ruined, and he failed to build a public career for the lord, and he was ashamed. Now in danger, I am afraid that it will be difficult to see the Lord in my life. Wen wept blood in a book, a parting word, and hoped that the lord would listen.
The princes of the world can kill if they can, and Yang Xian must die. Whoever disturbs the world day by day will be this person.
After reading it, Huan Wu's heart ached. He clutched his chest, suddenly felt a sweetness in his throat, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he passed out on the spot.
"Lord, lord!"
The generals and staff present were suddenly in chaos and rushed forward. Recently, Meng Qing helped Huan Wu and pinched his person with his hand.
But seeing Huan Wu slowly waking up, his eyes were sad, and he called out sadly: "Ziyu, Ziyu!" Before the great cause is accomplished, how can you leave me first! ”
With a roar of rage, Huan Wu pulled out the sword at his waist. For a while, the generals and staff around him all withdrew. Huan Wu waved his sword and slashed the table, pointing to the sky and swearing: "The hatred of the ninth generation, today's hatred." If there is still one survivor of the children of my Huan clan, the Yang clan will be destroyed. Yang Xian Xiaoer, if you don't crush your bones and scatter ashes, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart! ”
