Chapter 255: Sarcasm

Wu Yingying sneezed violently without warning, quite unfortunately, and sprayed his head on the face of Dong Zunzhi, who was walking beside him.

It has been half a month since he set off from Lingzhou, and he is about to arrive in Lanzhou, and he is about to see Huang Wen's mother and daughter, Wu Yingying can't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart. In retrospect, the danger of leaving their mother and daughter, along with the families of thousands of soldiers, in an isolated city is self-evident, and I should have considered it a long time ago, so why did I go to all costs to seize Hexi? Was it really because of the temptation of power? Indeed, the Guiyi army and the Uighur tribes of Ganzhou should not miss the opportunity to capture Yumen Pass.

Once the Ganzhou Uighurs completely held the Guiyi army hostage, it would be difficult for them to reach the heavens if they wanted to get their hands on Hexi again. However, is this a sufficient reason to keep the dependents of the officers and men of the whole army in Lanzhou? Along the way, Wu Yingying kept looking for excuses and explanations for himself in his heart, but he was always unable to even pass this hurdle himself. He knows that although no one blames himself, he has done something more authentic than most of the so-called heroes in this world, but the debt of conscience is forever owed. This is also the reason why Wu Yingying has never liked the soldiers and is grateful to Dade because he personally entered the court.

The road is quite peaceful, but it is boring, and the kraft candy around him is even more boring when he resigns from the Lingzhou inspection.

Dong Zunzhi dodged this sudden attack in embarrassment, feeling ashamed and annoyed, since he was forced to dismount and surrender to Wu Yingying that day, he was full of grief and indignation, thinking that my old Dong was also a general who had done the deputy inspection in front of the palace, if he hadn't offended Emperor Taizu because of some trivial things, he should have been an official envoy, who would have thought that he would have to suffer the humiliation of Wu Yingying, a junior.

He is not an open-minded person, these days he is getting farther and farther away from Hexi, Wu Yingying only has 300 tooth soldiers with him, but he is the elite of 2,000 forbidden troops on his side, after he has the courage to come up, he has repeatedly provoked Wu Yingying, wanting to get back to the field of that day.

Although this time he entered Beijing with Wu Yingying, called escort, in fact, surveillance, but the face can not be completely torn, Dong Zunzhi's eyes fell on the white horse ridden by Wu Yingying, and suddenly a flash of inspiration, pretending to sigh regretfully: "Wu Jiedu rode this white horse horse is extraordinary, but unfortunately, it is difficult to have perfect things in the world, just because the world loves the white horse horse, most of these mounts have flashy worries." ”

Wu Yingying glanced at him, and sighed secretly in his heart, this person is really a villain, he provoked Zhao Kuangyin with words back then, and was sent to the northwest for more than ten years, isn't this loss big enough? Yes, he is used to being flattered by various feudal tribes in the northwest, and probably he doesn't regard the position of this Lingzhou inspection as a chore.

Seeing that Dong Zunzhi seemed to be unsatisfied, Wu Yingying rushed to the front and said: "This is not true, the white horse I am riding on is a wild horse captured by the soldiers in the border stopper, although it is not a day to travel thousands of miles, but the foot is light and swift, but it is a good horse that can support life and death." ”

Dong Zunzhi said to himself: "Is it really? I'm afraid it may not be." ”

Wu Yingying didn't look at him either, turned his head to Zhang Zhongyao on the other side and said, "This white horse was born in the wild, and it is a place where tigers and wolves haunt. Among the horses, it is the most conspicuous, if the foot strength is not fast, the strength is insufficient, I am afraid that it has already been buried in the lion's mouth. If you are talented, you can stand out, and you don't have to learn from those who are flies and dogs. ”

Dong Zunzhi was ridiculed by him, his face turned pale, and he sneered: "I don't know what the white horse is talking about, can Wu Jiedu believe it?" He made up his mind to touch Wu Yingying's head today, and he had a lot less scruples when he spoke. Wu Yingying's heart is really difficult for villains, and he drives his horse forward by himself, and he doesn't bother to pay attention to Dong Zun's instructions.

Later, Zhang Zhongyao was not polite to him, and said in a deep voice: "My generation of martial artists, this mount is a partner to kill the enemy, not a master and servant, how can you say that it is a hindrance? After speaking, he didn't care how he reacted, and urged the horse to follow Wu Yingying.

Dong Zunzhi was left in place, his face was blue with anger, and he said fiercely: "How can this be true, the old man is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and the official is the deputy inspector in front of the palace, and today he was actually humiliated by this villain." Pointing to Zhang Zhongyao's back, he said to Lin Zhong: "When we get to Bianliang, we will have a good time to clean up these things that are not long-sighted." ”

At this time, it is the autumn high air, the wild grass that has grown crazy for a summer has begun to turn a little yellow, under the light of the sunset, wave by wave with the wind ups and downs, the evening breeze brings the fragrance of the wheat ears that are about to ripen, "Lanzhou is near!" Wu Yingying, who got rid of Dong Zunzhi's entanglement, galloped his horse quite happily, and seemed to see Huang Wen's pretty figure standing under the city of Lanzhou.

Just when Wu Yingying thought that he was dazzled by longing, Zhang Zhongyao said in his ear: "Lord, isn't General Xiao waiting next to you?"

Escorted by a hundred sergeants led by Xiao Jiu, Huang Wen and Zhou Hou walked out of the carriage and were standing on the side of the road looking westward.

Yesterday, Xiao Jiu received a summons from the military envoy that Wu Yingying was about to arrive in Lanzhou, so he hurriedly reported the news to the two ladies. At Huang Wen's strong request, Xiao Jiu led a hundred sergeants to escort Huang Wen to wait by the roadside early in the morning. During the siege of the city, Zhou Hou and Huang Wen got along day and night, and their relationship was much deeper, and they wanted to follow Wu Yingying into Beijing, so they waited with Huang Wen.

Wu Yingying was full of joy, jumped off the horse from a distance, threw the reins to Zhang Zhongyao, and walked towards the two beauties in three steps and two steps. When he came closer, he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say, and looked at the beautiful face behind the light veil in a daze, and the eyes of both of them were suddenly a little moist. This scene made the surrounding sergeants unconsciously infected, Xiao Jiu with a rather embarrassed look, paced away, and met Zhang Zhongyao, the captain of the Ya Military Camp who was leading the horse.

After a long time, Zhou Hou coughed lightly, and finally woke up the two people who were immersed in the joy of reunion after a long absence. Wu Yingying's old face was slightly red, and before he could blurt out the words full of apologies, Huang Wen said first: "My daughter misses you very much." Wu Yingying was about to ask cheekily, "What about you?" Zhou Hou said beside him, "Congratulations to General Wu for marrying the Uighur princess." The dissatisfaction is palpable. Wu Yingying was quite embarrassed and was about to explain, but a person walked out of the sergeant, stepped forward and bowed and said, "Xiaguan Xiao Zhen, I would like to say hello to General Wu on behalf of Lord Han who stayed in Nanjing." ”

Wu Yingying fixed his eyes and saw that it was Xiao Zhen, the escort officer when Lanzhou intercepted the Khitan to lend grain and grass to the Northern Han Dynasty, his face was smeared with yellow potion, and his chin was stained with a thick beard, but since he had already reported his surname, Wu Yingying was naturally not difficult to recognize after careful observation. Since this person came, Wu Yingying was inconvenient to be in front of him, so he first sent Huang Wen and Zhou Hou into the carriage, took the reins of his horse from Zhang Zhongyao's hand, and said with a smile: "There is General Lao Xiao, how is Lord Han?" I heard that he has done a good job in the Great Liao Kingdom, and I am very happy for him. In fact, during this time, Wu Yingying focused on Hexi and didn't know anything about Han Derang's situation, but he thought that since Han Derang could later become a figure under one person and above ten thousand people, the official fortune in the Liao Dynasty was naturally smooth.

Wu Yingying's strength in subduing Hexi has risen sharply, the so-called time is different from the past, Xiao Zhen is Han Derang's henchman, and the control in Liao is not small, this time he was a little apprehensive when he came to see Wu Yingxing, and saw that Wu Yingying was kind and pleasant, and the closeness was no different, and he secretly admired in his heart, this is the magnanimity of a true hero and a good man. He immediately bowed his hand and said: "Thanks to the general's concern, Lord Han is now deeply respected by the emperor of our dynasty and Xiao Niangniang, and he has been newly appointed to stay in Nanjing, and the sixteen states of Yanyun are acting cheaply, and he is thinking about serving the country." He looked left and right, Xiao Jiu and Zhang Zhongyao were leading their horses and following two paces away, while the rest of the sergeants were further away.

Seeing his attitude, Wu Yingying waved his hand and smiled: "It's okay, General Xiao and Captain Zhang are brothers who I can trust each other with life and death, and I can't avoid anything else." Later, Xiao Jiu and Zhang Zhongyao also nodded at him when they heard this, without the slightest hint of being reserved and complacent, life and death are mutually beneficial, which is a plain description of the relationship between several of them.
