Uncle Zheng was walking forward, and the Sword Master was at his side.

Slightly ahead, a group of armor soldiers were carrying the corpses in front of them, clearing the road, and closer to them, there were four armor soldiers each with a large broom, pushing away the blood on the ground.

Because, uncle's boots will be uncomfortable when stepping on the filthy bloody water.

Actually, Uncle Zheng is not so hypocritical, when he was fighting Dongshan Fort a while ago, he could personally carry the knife down to kill the enemy, but, if the conditions allow, why bother to suffer himself?

Life just needs a more sense of ritual, and your own enjoyment is actually secondary, the key is your ritual, which the soldiers under your command like to watch.

Originally, someone was sent to escort the arrested people to the dock, but Uncle Zheng refused, and he decided to go to Jingcheng to have a look by himself.

At this moment, a messenger with a tricolor flag on his back rushed and knelt down to report:

"Master Hou, General Liang found a batch of Chu armor clothes in the storehouse in the city and asked for the transfer of troops."

"Exactly."

Uncle Zheng generally doesn't care what Ah Cheng wants to do, anyway, listen to him, yes.

People specially sent people over to ask for instructions, in order to give themselves a face.

"Whoa!"

The messenger ran back to his life.

On the side, the Sword Master smiled and said:

"Master Hou?"

Zheng Fan smiled: "Let them go." ”

When he gave the order before, the soldiers below began to shout "Hou Ye has an order".

The low-level soldiers may not stand at the height enough, but they also understand what it means for the hundreds of thousands of Chu troops in Zhennan Pass when their people appear in Jingcheng.

A great achievement far beyond the original thousands of miles to attack the snow customs is in front of you!

Some soldiers took the initiative to change the title of "uncle" to "Hou Ye", on the one hand, from the heart, and on the other hand, they felt that it had been completed.

There is another meaning, that is, the big guy firmly believes that this battle will be won, and the uncle will definitely be the marquis!

Therefore, at this time, Zheng Fan will not correct the mistakes in their titles, nor will he look at when and where they are.

In the past, after Tian Wujing was cut off the prince, many soldiers below still called the prince, which is actually a reason.

Of course, while you enjoy this military spirit, you will also inevitably be pushed by the people below.

After reaching a certain level, probably, it is the yellow robe.

The Sword Saint was no longer surprised by the fact that "the heart of the Lord of the Plains was known to everyone", but the Sword Saint still opened his mouth and asked:

"Next, are you staying here?"

The attack on Jingcheng was successful, and according to the normal development, the next step should be to stay here to the death, blocking the connection between Zhennanguan and Chudi.

Zheng Fan shook his head and nodded again,

Road:

"Defending is definitely defending, but it is not necessarily that defending, there are many ways to defend the city, in fact, now, our army has attacked."

"Liang Cheng's request before?" Juggernaut asked.

He doesn't know anything about the military, but he likes to ask.

Uncle Zheng nodded and said, "Yes." ”

At this time, from the north city gate, an army dressed in Chu army armor and carrying the banner of the Chu people was rapidly leaving the city.

With a low shout from the leading general,

The soldiers and horses that were originally in an orderly queue suddenly became loose and depressed, and many people deliberately borrowed some blood from the dead bodies on the ground nearby to wipe their faces.

A defeated army, heading north.

"Summons the order to go down ........."

Uncle Zheng pointed to the nearby corpses and ordered:

"Throw all the corpses inside and outside the city into the Wei River."

Let the corpses continue to float along the wide Wei River, so that the people of Chu downstream can really see and see that the Chu army in front of them has been defeated, with countless casualties.

This kind of panic is not only for the Chu army in Zhennanguan in the north, but also for the people of Chu in the rear.

Let the group of Chu nobles who only know how to drink and enjoy the drama on the river cruise can feel the horror of the war for themselves.

They should have experienced the war, and the situation in Chu was not all smooth sailing.

If you don't talk about the far, let's just say that it is close, and when the princes rebelled a few years ago, the scale of soldiers and horses used was not small.

But Chu Di really hadn't sensed the invasion from an external enemy so clearly for a long time.

Even the 40,000 Chu army souls under Yupan City last time also died in Jindi.

It should not be easy for the regent of Dachu to forcibly gather the power of the nobles and unify the outside world with his own hands;

Uncle Zheng feels that his eldest brother can work harder.

So

He didn't mind adding a bit to his uncle.

When the knife rests on your neck,

When your skin has sensed the cold chill of the forest,

I don't believe that you can continue to be "monolithic"!

After entering the city, on the streets on both sides, it can be said that there are many armor soldiers, and the city that has just broken is not an accident if it happens, so it is necessary to be more attentive to the protection of the uncle.

Fortunately, Jingcheng is not very big, take a look and pay attention to the dirt on the ground, and it didn't take long for Uncle Zheng to walk to the city guard mansion with the Sword Saint.

At the gate of the city guard's mansion, there was some blood, but inside, it was much drier.

When the last group of guards of the city guard saw that the general situation had gone, they directly chose to flee and surrender, and there was not much fighting inside.

In the yard,

Uncle Zheng looked around,

To the sword saint beside him:

"I originally thought that the gardens of the Qianren were very good, but now it seems that the gardens of the Chu people do have a unique flavor."

The gardens of the Qianren pay more attention to the cultural atmosphere, while the Chu people pursue nature more.

Juggernaut spoke; "Someone reported to you before, the city guard's surname is Jing?"

"That's right, it's called Jing Traceability."

"That's right, the largest garden in Chu is not in Yingdu, but in Jing."

The Great Chu Jing clan does not raise private soldiers, and is known for the clan where the Great Chu cultural context is located, and because of this, most of the Jing clan's thoughts are actually used in the three aspects of how to be elegant, how to be more elegant, and how to be the most elegant.

Jing traced the source to Jingcheng as the city guard, and in order to enjoy, he specially repaired the garden in accordance with Jing's aesthetics in the city guard mansion, which is also normal.

The aristocratic lords have to eat and drink well and be in a good mood in order to have the mood to care about the people at the bottom, and then write poems, which is hard work.

Of course, Zheng Fan, as the aggressor, is not qualified to criticize this and that.

Although he was born in Hutou City, his ass has long been on the side of the powerful.

At this time, Siniang came over and said with a smile: "Lord, the slave has caught a cook, the craftsmanship is good, the ingredients are ready, and you can make it at any time." ”

Uncle Zheng nodded, pointed here, and said:

"That's it, set the table."

The furniture was ready-made, and the guards immediately moved a pear blossom wood round table and three square pattern chairs.

Tea sets and tea leaves, that's also the best.

Uncle Zheng sat down first, and at the same time motioned for the Sword Saint to sit together.

Juggernaut was polite and sat down.

Siniang poured two cups of tea and put them in front of Uncle Zheng and the Sword Saint.

The Sword Master lowered his head and took a sip, bowed his head slightly, and said;

"Good tea."

Uncle Zheng pursed his lips, put the cup down, and said:

"It's still a little worse than Osawa fragrant tongue."

Because he was only impressed by Osawa Fragrance.

The Juggernaut smiled and was silent.

Uncle Zheng turned his head to look at Siniang and said, "Build an earthen stove in front of you, and let the cook cook there, let's watch." ”

"Yes, Lord."

Soon, a simple earthen stove began to be built over there, and the cook and his wife also came over tremblingly, and knelt down in front of Zheng Fan.

"What's your name?" Uncle Zheng asked.

"If you go back to the nobleman, the villain is called Niu Dongguan."

"Niu Dongguan, let's cook, Ben Bo is hungry."

"Yes, yes."

Niu Dongguan and his wife got up, and the two immediately went to the earthen stove to get busy.

Siniang walked over, stood by the earthen stove, and watched.

With her staring at her, even if this honest-looking cook really wants to be a hero and poison his wife and children, he will definitely not have this opportunity.

Juggernaut spoke; "Isn't there something wrong?"

The Sword Master didn't care about the corpses on the way into the city before, but he cared about the captured cook cooking in front of the two of them to eat, some of which were too crushing.

Uncle Zheng smiled and said:

"This is to help him make a name for himself, if he really cooks delicious food, in the future, he will be a chef, and besides, watching the master cook is a kind of ......... Craftsmanship. ”

"Craftsmanship?"

"Some people like it."

"Do you like it?"

"I'm fine."

Niu Dongguan's first dish began to be cooked, and soon, the fragrance wafted over.

"It's hard to imagine that you are very idle now, and you are really waiting for dinner."

Uncle Zheng said: "I'm not idle, besides, what I'm doing now is a very meaningful thing, I can't say that thousands of years later, the dishes he makes today will become famous dishes in any place."

Every time people in the future eat this dish, they will think of our today.

Even, there will be a sign hanging in the restaurant to tell diners the origin of this dish and that dish, and we can be regarded as a century-old person. ”

"Does that count?"

"Of course."

"No, there's still a difference." The Sword Master continued, "If Yan merges Chu in the future, this is a beautiful conversation, and the beauty is you; If Chu continues to exist in the future, then the beauty is probably him, in order to save his wife and children, he satisfied the murderous Yan Guo Pingye Uncle with his superb cooking skills. ”

"Hahahaha, interesting, interesting, I didn't expect you to say that."

Sword Saint Dao; "Aren't all the stories on the rivers and lakes made up like this?"

He Yu Huaping, he didn't know how many stories he had made up by the Jianghu people.

In the past, when I traveled around the world, I would stop to eat at the teahouse tavern, and listen to the storyteller or other tea guests chatting and chatting, and I listened to them for a long time until they said their names.

Yu Huaping realized:

oh

That's me.

"Yes, yes, but it doesn't matter if it was the wise and martial Uncle Hirano who ate a meal here, or the vicious executioner Zheng Tu who forced the celebrity chef to make a meal for himself here;

Ultimately

Maybe decades later, someone will distinguish this, but in a few hundred years, even if the Chu State is still there, no one will tell whether Ben Bo is loyal or traitorous, good or bad.

I only care if I am famous or not, Ben Bo thinks that he should be a little famous. ”

The Sword Saint tasted this sentence and said:

"You see more than I do."

"Huh."

The dish began to come up.

Chudi cuisine pays attention to a fresh word, trying to maintain the original taste of food, but this is actually more about the level of the chef, and the dishes that are often heavy on oil and taste are relatively simpler.

Uncle Zheng glanced at Siniang who was standing there, and Siniang nodded.

"Please."

Uncle Zheng made a "please" gesture to the Sword Master;

Juggernaut picked up the chopsticks, picked up the vegetables, and put them in his mouth.

"Not bad."

The Sword Saint looked at Uncle Zheng, but found that Uncle Zheng was holding chopsticks in his hand, and on the other side, He Chunlai was holding boiling water and helping him scald chopsticks and bowls.

"......" Juggernaut.

After scalding, Uncle Zheng sandwiched the dishes,

"Yes, you can."

Dishes, one by one, Uncle Zheng and the Sword Saint ate unhurriedly.

After all, there are only two cooks, and it is impossible to make any Manchu and Han full feasts, but it is good to say that they also made eight dishes, and none of them were cold dishes, and finally, fish soup began to stew in the iron pot.

At this time, after the things outside were settled, generals such as Gongsun Zhi, Gong Wang, and Gou Moli also came here.

Everyone wanted to come over and listen to Uncle Zheng make the next arrangement, but when they saw Uncle Zheng sitting there enjoying the food leisurely, they felt that it was very natural.

When you're victorious,

All your actions,

will be made up by your subordinates' automatic brains.

"Come, let's eat together, it's hard work on the boat."

Uncle Zheng beckoned.

"Uncle Xie."

"Uncle Xie."

The guard next to him brought a stool again.

The generals were not polite, and they all picked up the dishes and chopsticks to eat, but none of them sat down, they all stood at the table.

Many times,

The gap in status will be clear.

It will fall into place, even, without being reminded.

Shaoqing,

The Juggernaut sighed and stood up to eat.

He can actually sit and eat, because no one in the room will think that he is not qualified to sit down and eat.

Because everyone knows that if this Sword Saint wants to, he can choose one of the people at the dinner table to pierce his chest with a sword, and the one who is chosen has almost no chance of being spared.

And the reason why Juggernaut doesn't sit down,

The reason is simple,

These generals around him are equivalent to his generals in Pingye;

Gongsun Zhi and Gong Wang entrusted their children to Uncle Hirano, and they already considered themselves to be most of the family.

The lord sits,

The generals are standing,

And rightfully so,

Generally speaking, those who sit and eat with the lord are......

Mother of the House.

Juggernaut can also flick his sleeves, stop eating, and get off the table.

But that's too preoccupied, as if I care about this little bit of integrity.

Moreover, having just won a battle, there is no need to sweep away the gloom and depression that has been on the ship for so long, and there is no need to ruin everyone's happiness.

So

At the dinner table,

Uncle Zheng didn't greet the big guy again, don't be polite, sit down and eat together, but continued to eat vegetables and eat naturally;

The rest of the generals and the Sword Master also ate naturally.

"The fish soup is ready." Niu Dongguan shouted.

He was trembling before, but after he started cooking, his mood became more and more stable.

Siniang personally brought the first bowl of fish soup and put it in front of Uncle Zheng.

Uncle Zheng picked it up and blew softly.

Then

Outside, a messenger rushed in:

"Report !!!!!!!! General Liang and General Jin defeated the Chu army that came to aid Jingcheng in the north! General Liang's headquarters and Jin's headquarters have already divided their troops and continue to advance. ”

calculating time,

It's pretty much there.

After Liang Cheng broke the city, he went north with a group of soldiers and horses early.

Because the south is the Wei River, the soldiers and civilians who fled before on the boundary of Jingcheng are also heading north.

The reaction and actions of the nearest Chu army must also be the fastest.

But when the Chu army came to the rescue here, on the way, it must have encountered one after another fleeing soldiers and civilians.

In the narratives of these soldiers and civilians, the Yan people will be like divine soldiers descending from the sky, and their numbers are often exaggerated many times more than the real situation.

This is normal, once the Yan people are not strong, how can they escape? Second, under the panic and confusion, unless there are experienced spies in battle, it is almost impossible for ordinary people, even ordinary soldiers, to find out the number of enemy troops in a short period of time.

There are tens of thousands of people in this person, it is simply Wuyang Wuyang, you can't go up to the sky to look down, ordinary soldiers and civilians are wrapped in the crowd, how can you count them?

Therefore, although the news sent back by the messengers was very concise, everyone present could make it up in their brains.

Jingcheng has a lot of Chu people's armor and banners stored, which is much more than the Fan family sent earlier, and it is not an order of magnitude at all.

Therefore, when the Chu army, which had recently and urgently arrived to save Jingcheng, continued to march towards Jingcheng while reining in the rout that had fled from Jingcheng in the south, they "received" the Yan army led by Liang Cheng and Jin Shuke, disguised as the Chu army.

And then

It was swept away by a wave.

This is also why when two armies face each other, no one dares to stupidly put miscellaneous soldiers or cannon fodder soldiers in the center and take it for granted;

Because once the front collapses quickly, it is easy to drive one's own Chinese army and rear army to collapse together, and the chain reaction will be down, and no matter how good the general is, he will be powerless.

After defeating the nearest Chu army, Liang Cheng and Jin Shuke divided their troops and continued to march north, the purpose was to take advantage of this momentum, while the Chu people were shocked and blackened by the situation, to try to add a few more fires to him and disrupt him!

It's a pity,

There are no cavalry,

If Uncle Zheng came with 20,000 cavalry this time,

hehe

Uncle Zheng really dared to personally lead these 20,000 iron horsemen to sweep around Shanggu County, the Chu people!

The news of the great victory came, and the situation in the north was very good, which meant that in the short term, everyone did not have to worry about the counterattack from the Chu people, regardless of the north and south directions, it would take a certain amount of time for the Chu people to organize a counterattack.

therefore

At the dinner table, all the generals saluted Uncle Zheng, who was sitting there drinking fish soup, and said:

"Congratulations to my uncle on another victory!"

"Congratulations to my uncle on another victory!"

The surrounding guards and armorers raised their swords and shouted:

"Master Hou is mighty!"

"Uncle is mighty!"

If you shout wrong, change your words immediately.

"Master Hou is mighty!"

In this hot and noisy atmosphere,

Uncle Zheng put down the soup bowl,

Said slowly:

"Another bowl of soup."
