Chapter 356: Heading South to the Imperial City
"It's kind of interesting."
Both parents have the surname Qu.
Of course, this is actually nothing, and it is also common for husbands and wives to have the same surname in later generations, and children don't have to quarrel with whose surname they want to have.
but
How to say it,
Yao Zizhan himself is extremely romantic, and he has left a love story when he travels around the world, which can be described as untying his belt to be comfortable, and after being comfortable, he runs away, and then writes a poem from afar, and outsiders see it as chic and romantic, but in fact, it is really shameless.
But such a person once said in the article that in the big house, it is the most dirty and foul smell, so dirty that people dare not set foot in it, so evil that it makes people's hearts tremble, and it stinks so much that people can't help themselves.
Therefore, it is impossible for Uncle Zheng not to associate in that particular direction.
Zhao Qi said;
"It's the first time I've been asked what my mother's last name is."
forthwith
Zhao Qi said again:
"Because outsiders know that I am the illegitimate son of the Qu family, this is enough for me to eat and drink. Uncle, I am surprised by your concern. ”
"Do you want to say it?" Uncle Zheng asked.
"If Uncle wants to know, how dare the slave not say it?"
"No, before you were a captive, I was the Lord's house; Now, it's over, you're ........."
"Friends?"
Zhao Qi's eyes began to shine.
"You are a leper who says right and wrong under the locust tree at the entrance of the village, and I am a lazy man who sits there and listens to right and wrong."
If you want to say it, I can listen.
"Uncle's analogy is interesting, let's put it this way, the slave's mother is one generation higher than the Qu Peiluo you know, and the slave, if the slave can enter the Qu family tree, it will also be one generation higher than Qu Peiluo."
"Oh~"
"What do you think, uncle?"
"It's interesting."
"The slave thinks so, too."
"You want to live?"
"The slave wants to live well."
"Take the racecourse, Benber, and give you a future."
"How many beautiful men's futures can I get in exchange?"
"Ben Bo is not good at this tone, so if you don't want Ben Bo to be in a bad mood and cut you down one day, you will be in front of Ben Bo in the future and put yourself to normal."
Zhao Qi knelt down,
"The villain understands."
……
Liang Cheng and Jin Shuke led the army back, and in this battle, they won a lot of battles, and their own damage was very small, but they were still limited by the mobility of the infantry, which led to the failure to further expand the results of the battle and form a bead curtain.
And you can't go further north, otherwise there is a risk of being turned around by the Chu people to make dumplings, and you can just accept it when you see it.
Soldiers are allowed to rest, but generals are not allowed to rest.
Uncle Zheng slept for a while in the second half of the night, and when he heard that Ah Cheng and they were back, he immediately called them over.
came with him, as well as Gou Moli, who was responsible for answering him.
If the blind man is here, the role of Gou Moli will be a bit chicken.
But the blind man is now presiding over the affairs of his hometown in the Snow Customs, and his strategic vision and ability to leave the country are highlighted.
In the end, it was the Savage King who had swept up the storm of savages, and no one dared to ignore his suggestions and opinions.
He Chunlai, a righteous man who "opposed the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty", has now completely become Uncle Zheng's life assistant, and prepared supper with that Niu Dongguan in advance.
could have been placed in the yard,
But the city is burning food on a large scale, and the smell of food alone is enough, but the problem is that the smoke and dust are really unbearable, so they can only stay in the house with the doors and windows closed.
"The situation, that's it, Ben Bo wants to talk about his thoughts."
Uncle Zheng took a bite of the wonton and put the spoon in the bowl,
Road:
"I think so, Jingcheng can't hold it, we must strangle this position, and we can't let the connection between Shanggu County and Chudi be restored.
What we want is just this effect, and in terms of method, there can be many ways to be flexible.
Like what
The horse farm. ”
Uncle Zheng looked at Ah Cheng,
"If you can take down the horse farm and arm a few thousand cavalry, Ah Cheng, are you sure that you can use these thousands of cavalry to continue to contain this area?"
Thousands of cavalry, say little, not too little, but say more, really not much, the key depends on how you use it.
If it is to charge the opponent's army formation, then a few thousand cavalry is a hammer deal, and if you can't break the enemy formation, you will probably fall into it.
But if it can be as suddenly killed as when the two armies of Yan and Chu fought outside Dongshan Fort, and subvert the battle situation in one fell swoop, the effect will be great.
Liang Cheng could understand Uncle Zheng's thoughts, so he said directly:
"Lord, this time a lot of boats have been seized on the Jingcheng wharf, if the next sneak attack on the horse farm goes well, leave some boats for your subordinates, and your subordinates can have the confidence to stay and play a few rounds with the Chu people.
In addition, if the main force is led south, there is a high probability that the follow-up soldiers and horses of Chu Di will not be able and dare not continue to go north to Shanggu County, which can be regarded as helping his subordinates relieve a lot of pressure. ”
If Uncle Zheng led the main force to the south by boat, he could directly threaten the imperial capital of Great Chu.
Emperor Yan could have written directly in a letter to the barbarian king:
"If you dare to send troops, my Dayan will fight Yanjing, and I will also concentrate all the available soldiers and horses to press into the desert with all my might, and go straight to your royal court!"
The regent probably dared to say so, because from what he heard and saw, as well as what he personally came into contact with, it can be concluded that this regent, who is also Uncle Zheng's eldest brother, is really not ordinary.
But to put it bluntly,
Da Chu has its own national conditions,
If you threaten others by flipping the table, you have to see if you have the ability to flip the table.
Emperor Yan was arbitrary, after stepping on the gate valve, the court did not dare to disobey his existence at all, the military power of Dayan, part of it was in the hands of the imperial court, and the other was all in the hands of or under the rule of the two marquis, and these two marquis, one was the most feared marquis of Zhenbei by the barbarians, and the other was the marquis of Nan who dared to destroy himself.
Emperor Yan wants to go crazy, Da Yan can and will go crazy with him, this table can really be overturned!
So
The barbarian king was instigated, and in that Three Kingdoms War, from beginning to end, the barbarians did not dare to move troops, and even took the initiative to send two tribes that they did not deal with into the territory of Yan to surrender.
And what about the state of Chu,
If the regent shouts this,
Don't take care of Yingdu, don't take care of your family, the whole Northern Expedition!
First of all
Ying's can be ignored, but the fiefdom of the big nobles can be ignored?
God knows if this Yan army will find that the city wall is too high to be broken after coming to Yingdu, and whether it will turn to other places.
The regent can be "high-spirited", but the nobles below may not really be willing to even care about the door.
meantime
The most important point is that
Yan Guo is crazy and exterminates the barbarians, it is impossible, but if you are caught and beaten by Wang Ting, you will directly eat your Wang Ting's cavalry, and give your Wang Court a few laps in the desert, and directly cut off your legal honor and actual strength, which is no problem.
For the barbarian king, from now on, even if the royal court is still there, I am afraid that it will be reduced to an ordinary tribe on the desert.
And what about the state of Chu,
Northern Expedition of the whole line,
Sounds brave,
But did the State of Chu dare to do this?
Outside Zhennan Pass, hundreds of thousands of iron horsemen of King Jingnan are waiting, if you really dare to come out of the Northern Expedition, you still need to build so many turtle shells there?
At last
Ultimately
Uncle Zheng dares to be so easy,
These generals under their command dare to feel so good about themselves when they are deep behind enemy lines,
It's really not that they have poor military literacy, it's not that they don't have a sense of crisis,
It's the strength of the country, the strength of the country,
At least
At the level of war,
Yan Jun occupies the absolute initiative.
Whether the imp is crazy or not, it all depends on who the king of Hades stands behind him;
You must know that even if Uncle Zheng's main force goes south, he can take away all the Chu soldiers and horses from Chu, but in Zhennan Pass, there are still hundreds of thousands of Chu troops with the strongest combat power in Chu State.
But Liang Cheng still dared to be so confident that he used thousands of horsemen and some warships to open the battlefield and fight guerrillas, daring to guarantee that he could continue to pinch the logistics of the Chu people;
The root cause is that
In the Chu people in the north, King Jingnan personally watched.
Gou Moli smiled,
Then cover your mouth,
Then he covered his eyes again,
Time
His emotions are a little out of control,
When I put my hand down, my eyes were a little red.
This is not the dog's intention, he is not disguised, because here, there is no need for disguise, and he also understands that Uncle Zheng and those subordinates who are called "sir" prefer "real".
Gou Moli thought of his beginning,
After learning the news that the Snow Customs was conquered by Uncle Zheng,
He was immediately stunned;
And once regretted it very much, regretting why he knew the news.
Because as long as he knows, if he wants to pretend that he doesn't know, he will naturally reveal traces of "pretending";
but
On the opposite side is Tian Wujing.
It was a being who was so subtle on the battlefield that it made my scalp tingle;
The final outcome is,
Tian Wujing saw the secret of the instability behind the savages, so he predicted the prediction of the savage king, and crossed the sea with one move, inducing the main force of the savages to cross the river and then directly defeat it with the main force of Dayan!
"What's wrong?" Uncle Zheng looked at Gou Moli.
Gou Moli wiped his tears,
Laughed:
"My subordinates just think that it won't be long before that Chu State General Nian Yao will experience the injuries that his subordinates have suffered, so happy."
When others repeat your bad luck,
Most of you,
Will gloat.
"Hehehe........."
Uncle Zheng smiled.
The rest of the people laughed together very politely.
"Everyone, we are all family members, and we must know the meaning of this battle for us, I don't hide it from you, no matter how big the difficulties we encounter at the moment, they are all worth overcoming.
Just imagine,
Zhennan Pass was broken, the elite of the northern part of Chu was lost, and Shanggu County fell into the territory of Yan State;
After that,
The whole of Jindong,
It's our family.
His first Zhenbei Hou relied on the great victory a hundred years ago, established the mansion for a hundred years, and is still the pillar of Beifeng County.
Now
That's when we set up this pillar! ”
Everyone was about to kneel down and shout slogans again, but Zheng Fan directly raised his hand to stop them.
Road:
"Things, sooner rather than later, the horse farm in the east, I have to find some opportunities to take it down, otherwise I'm afraid there will be precautions, Liang Cheng."
"The subordinates are here!"
"This matter will be left to you to deal with, you personally select a team of horses, after robbing the horse farm, if everything goes well, immediately send someone to report to me."
"Yes, Lord."
"Rest of you, let's get ready, I hope everything goes well, because I want to go to Yingdu to see the scenery."
………
He Chunlai, who had finished his supper, had no chance or qualification to attend the meeting that really belonged to the inner circle of the Snow Customs.
He sat on the steps,
Beside him, sat Niu Dongguan.
Niu Dongguan took out a handful of dried fruits from his pocket and handed it to He Chunlai.
He Chunlai stretched out his hand to take it.
"Your cooking skills are superb." He Chun said.
"Hey, today is the most nervous meal I've ever done in my life, I used to apprentice with the master for ten years, and I was never so nervous when I first cooked for a guest on the stove."
Niu Dongguan is an honest man;
Therefore, when he saw Siniang, he scolded Yan Jun outside for being a Yan dog, and then when he saw Uncle Zheng, he knelt down and shouted "noble".
Although the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, but when it falls on him, the cook, I don't know how much has been apportioned.
The nobles, the generals, haven't died yet, and it seems that it is not his turn to fight hard.
On the other hand, Niu Dongguan is honest, because he thinks He Chunlai is very kind, because in his opinion, He Chunlai, like himself, is also a cook.
"What are you going to do?" He Chunlai asked.
Niu Dongguan replied:
"Alive."
The world is so difficult, and it is a great luck to be alive to witness so many people dying inside and outside the city.
"Didn't think about the future, didn't think about the future?"
"Don't live anymore? If you don't live, there will be no future. ”
He Chunlai felt that this was very reasonable, and nodded very seriously.
"Rest, Uncle gets up early, Ming'er has to make breakfast, Uncle likes to eat noodles, you make a Chu ground, put a little more green onion and herbs, chili oil...... Chili oil I tune. ”
"Alright, brother."
The next morning,
Uncle Zheng woke up, and at the same time, Liang Cheng, who had deployed the soldiers and horses and didn't care about resting at all, had already taken Zhao Qi out of the city and headed east.
And the granary in the city, up to now, has not burned out, and it is still continuing.
However, the food of the soldiers in these two days can be described as quite extravagant, because burning is a solution, and eating it is also a solution.
Of course, the food needed by the soldiers and horses of their own family was separated and prepared early, and they really burned all the food and ended up with no food to eat, which made the real brain water.
Uncle Zheng took a bath first, he took a boat before, and the conditions were limited, but now that he is "down-to-earth", he has to seize the opportunity to wash and scrub more.
The bath water was prepared by Siniang, and at the request of Uncle Zheng, the two of them washed together until they foamed at the mouth below.
Pushed open the door, walked to the courtyard, took a deep breath of the smell of grass and wood ashes and grain, and almost suffocated Uncle Zheng's refreshment.
As a last resort, Uncle Zheng could only retreat into the room and instruct the guards outside to bring in breakfast.
The breakfast was very hearty, and Uncle Zheng was very satisfied.
After eating and wiping his hands, Uncle Zheng looked at He Chunlai and said:
"That Niu Dongguan's craftsmanship seems to be good."
"Yes, uncle."
"Let's take it with us, such a good cook, it's a pity to lose it, let him learn Yan cuisine again, and strive to get a Yan Chu full table out."
"Yes, uncle."
"What about you, what are you going to do in the future? Chen Daole stayed in the snow customs and followed the blind man to preside over the affairs, you can't just be by my side all the time and be in charge of cooking, right? ”
"Uncle, I think it's good."
"It's a gift."
"It's also a big deal to let my uncle eat and drink well, to tell you the truth, my uncle dares to eat the food I cooked, I'm very ...... Admired. ”
"There are some things, I think the blind man has already said to you, but, what I should say, I also have to say, in my eyes, there is actually no difference between Yan and Jin, but I like Yan Guo."
"My subordinates can feel it."
"But what I really care about is my own people, this is also what I said to the Sword Master, I don't care if I am a Yan or a Jin or a barbarian or a savage, and even, there may be Chu people in the future.
If they are willing to kneel down to me and follow me, I will take them as my own, and I will protect them, and I can take out everything except my own life to protect them. ”
"Subordinate, I see it."
It's better to see than to hear.
Juggernaut once guarded the gates of Shengle City, and also killed pigs in the Snow Customs.
He can clearly feel that the former General's Mansion and the current Earl's Mansion are truly willing to spend money in terms of people's livelihood.
Perhaps, in the history books, this is intended to compete for the world, so it is not like the peasant army uprising to enjoy in advance, but has a greater plan.
But the Sword Saint and He Chunlai are not from the temple, what they see with their own eyes is the living standard of the people under the Earl's Palace.
"I don't want to ask about your past, but if you are willing to work with me to create a better and happier future home where people live and work in peace and contentment, without oppression, exploitation, or even, without racial distinction, where everyone coexists peacefully, respects each other, and is equal to each other, I am willing to accept you."
"It's ......... Dreams? ”
"Dream first, then it is possible to realize it in reality."
He Chunlai nodded and said:
"What do you want to eat at noon?"
"I want to eat something light."
"Yes, uncle."
"Hard."
"It's an honor."
Lunch was really light, and after nightfall, the burning grain over there finally came to an end.
Listening to the report from there, many soldiers were burning and crying.
This is understandable, if he can, Uncle Zheng also wants to carry these grains back;
Except for those powerful people who don't stick their fingers and will say cerebral palsy such as "why not eat minced meat", the vast majority of the rest of the people, especially those from the bottom, have a heartfelt ......... for food Awe.
Juggernaut sat there drinking tea,
Sighed:
"What a."
Uncle Zheng nodded and said:
"Yes."
Juggernaut asked again:
"The Chu people haven't come yet?"
The first group of nearby rescue soldiers and horses were defeated by Liang Cheng and Jin Shuke, but the Chu people obviously would not give up, and they were not qualified to give up.
"I guess it's going to be soon."
At this moment,
A messenger rushed into the courtyard and knelt down in front of Uncle Zheng, who was sitting at the door enjoying the cool breeze.
His lips were chapped and his expression was tired, obviously exhausted, but he saluted at once.
Yell;
"Uncle, General Liang has taken the horse farm, and there are no less than four thousand war horses available!"
Uncle Zheng smiled,
Stand up,
Ordered:
"Order, set fire to the city, and raze Jingcheng to the ground for me!"
Uncle Zheng straightened his sleeves,
I focused on my appearance.
The Juggernaut, who was sitting opposite, spoke:
"What's wrong?"
Uncle Zheng replied;
"I'm going to see my mother-in-law, and I'm a little nervous."
