Chapter 536: What a crime
The situation on the battlefield outside the wall once again showed a one-sided situation;
It's just that this time it is the people who are loyal to Qu Peiluo's side.
The addition of the cavalry of the Yan army directly played an obvious catalytic effect, and Liang Cheng, in fact, did not choose to put the cavalry under his command into the battlefield, but like a gust of wind, slowly swept over the periphery of the main battlefield that was now fighting, and with a neat rhythm, he directly suppressed the Chu army formation that was about to enter over there.
The Chu army's formation immediately changed formations, and under the same number, the infantry fought the cavalry, and they were still facing the elite iron cavalry of the world's first-class, unless the opponent's main general was in the water......
No, even if the opponent's brain is in water, it will be difficult to win.
For example, Li Fusheng liked to take the lead in the big war and lead the camp to charge, but the various departments under his command still fought in an orderly manner.
The rear of the Chu army changed to the front formation, and the front formation changed to the rear formation, and the battlefield withdrawal immediately began.
Very realistic, very direct, and very decisive.
And Liang Cheng's cavalry, like an old friend, maintained a fixed distance, "walking in the same direction".
If the opponent's speed is slow, it is a round of riding and shooting to urge to express the enthusiasm of "retaining".
Outside the military village, there was a large group of rabble divided into two rabble and fighting, before, one side of the reinforcements came, the other side was immediately discouraged, and now, the Yan army came, the discouraged side immediately overwhelmed back.
Strictly speaking, the Yan army, which had just beaten the Chu people in front of Zhennan Pass a year ago and burned the capital of the Chu people, was indeed not a little stronger than the Chu army in terms of the momentum bonus to the friendly army.
It didn't take long for the battle outside the military village to be divided into winners and losers, and at the same time, there was also spare strength to enter the military village, Qu Peiluo was able to gradually grasp the situation, and after a fierce battle, he killed the "rebellion" in his group.
At last
Qu Peiluo, who was covered in blood, took the person's head and came to the wall.
To the princess,
Get down on your knees.
This scene is like the prince has just killed the dragon in a bloody battle and returned to the princess...... Ask for praise.
"General Qu has worked hard."
The princess spoke.
"It's not hard to kill enemies for the princess." Qu Peiluo wiped the blood stains on his face, and his smile bloomed, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
The princess didn't speak again, she was here, and her husband agreed to her coming and agreeing to her to play, but there was really no need to be too enthusiastic about Qu Peiluo.
A Qu Peiluo can't compare to her husband's tenderness for herself.
Gou Moli opened his mouth and said to the following:
"General Qu, let's clean up this place, don't let the bloody gas disturb our lady."
"Yes, the Admiral understands!"
The military village, which had just experienced the killing, immediately began to be cleaned, and the wounded were placed outside the village;
But there was no resentment on the faces of the wounded, and there was no dissatisfaction when the exhausted soldiers picked up brooms and basins to clean up.
They were willingly serving the princess.
To a certain extent, they have already made their choice today, and this choice can bring them great protection in terms of legal theory and practical support.
Because of this, the image of the princess has been further elevated.
When the princess walked down the wall surrounded by everyone, the people in the village around her bent down very respectfully and saluted, which can be said to be pious, without the slightest coercion, completely from the heart.
In the early years, when he first led the army, King Jingnan once taught Zheng Fan that if he was like a soldier, he would be invincible, which was just a kind of assumption of the literati.
And when the princess returned to the house,
She couldn't help but ask Gou Moli:
"Mr. Gou, I don't have a problem."
"Madame, excuse me."
"Those people outside are in awe of me, and it doesn't seem to be a fake, but I don't shy the cold and ask for warmth, and even dislike the blood they left on the ground."
"Madame, there are some people in this world, and the more you trample them like animals, the more they worship you as a god."
The princess doesn't seem to understand.
"The more noble you are, the higher you are, the more their expectations will come true, and the more their future will be secured."
"Go on, talk to me, don't hide it."
"Yes, the more you look at everything, the more elegant you are, it proves that your position in the Hou Mansion is higher, and it proves that the Lord and the entire Hou Mansion, even including Dayan, value you more seriously.
Relatively, the more important they are.
In fact, they have abandoned the national character of the Chu people and the family business of their ancestors, and they are already dogs away from home, both physically and mentally.
The more prosperous the new owner's family is,
They
The more cheerful it is. ”
The art of mastery, the savage king, has been done to the extreme.
"As soon as I say that, I understand."
"Madame is smart, but there are some things that you need to understand after crawling at the bottom."
"You mean, I'm a noble born, so I can't see through things?"
"If you haven't experienced it, you can't empathize with it, and since you can't empathize, you can't put yourself in your shoes;
again
You have the protection of the Lord, you don't need to experience this, you have what you want to ask, and your subordinates will answer it. ”
"Yes, Mr. Gou has endured hardships, and it is not easy."
"Mrs. Xie is considerate, but her subordinates have already come to the bitter end."
"That's good."
Gou Moli bowed slightly,
Road:
"Madame rests here first, and her subordinates will bestow grace on your behalf."
"There's Mr. Raugo."
"The subordinates are terrified."
Gou Moli took out the sandalwood from his arms, lit it, and at the same time, said to the two maidservants who were waiting for the princess all the way:
"Sprinkle the rejuvenating lotion in the corners of the room."
"Yes."
"Yes."
After giving these instructions, Gou Moli exited the house.
At this time, the herbs, goods, wine and meat escorted by the Fan family saw that the war had subsided.
The people who had just finished the fight watched these things enter the village, and their eyes were shining.
Actually, these things have arrived a long time ago, but they have been waiting on the periphery.
Because you have to drive away the wild dogs before you can feed your own dogs;
And when the dog is hungry, it is fragrant when it gnaws on the bones;
"These are all given to you by the princess."
"Thank you, princess."
"Princess Chitose."
Everyone cheered, and the previous exhaustion was almost swept away.
Qu Peiluo walked over at this time, saluted Gou Moli, and then said:
"Do you need me to bring someone to deal with it?"
"No, it won't be a problem."
Liang Cheng personally led the troops, how could he capsize in this kind of gutter?
And it is, and it is.
The cavalry led by Liang Cheng has been following behind the Chu army, urging the Chu army to retreat quickly, this is no longer a simple question of whether the Chu people are afraid of the Yan people, it is purely hanging by the cavalry like this, and there is no way to fight at all.
The Chu generals on the opposite side are also experienced, and they have tried to find a hillside or a river surface several times to try to rely on the formation, but the Yan generals on the opposite side are often able to predict in advance and forcibly drive away their military formations.
After the two sides tested each other a few times, General Chu was very helpless to find that the quality of the Yan army on the opposite side was beyond imagination, this was by no means a partial division, although it was only three thousand horsemen, but it must be the main force of the Yan army.
If you encounter an ordinary cavalry, force a formation, retreat while fighting, transfer while fighting, or simply stand here and wait for friendly support, no problem;
But General Chu knew that in the face of such an elite iron cavalry, any of his own formations would be in vain, and all he could do was to try to inflict more damage on the other party.
In addition, almost all the knights of the Yan army on the opposite side have two horses, and they will be echeloned and hierarchical when pursuing, which is equivalent to driving in shifts, that is to say, their side will become more and more tired, and the Yan army on the opposite side can always maintain an excellent pre-war state, which is completely herdsmen herding sheep and singing folk songs.
bullying,
Bullying people......
At this time, a flag-bearer appeared in the Yan army formation and rushed towards the Chu army formation.
"Press!"
General Chu immediately ordered the crossbowmen in the army formation to press down and prohibit shooting.
"Listen to the Chu general on the other side, my general said, I am willing to throw the flag with the gift of the nobles of the Chu State to admit defeat."
Great Chu was once a country at the peak of aristocracy, and the etiquette of fighting between nobles was very complicated, but the essential concept was:
We are nobles, and our lives are precious.
The most classic is that the two armies are at war, and after capturing the nobles, they have to eat and drink well, which can be exchanged for ransom, but they must not be killed.
This flag throwing and admitting defeat means that when the two armies face each other, one side feels that there is no hope of winning, so it hands over one of its flags to the other side, and if the other side is willing to accept it, it will let them withdraw their troops and will not pursue.
General Chu hesitated, because it was obvious that since the Great Chu Kingdom was burned by the Yan Nanwang and the Yan Pingxi Marquis dug up many noble ancestral graves, the aristocratic system of the Great Chu has collapsed.
There are some things that even the Chu people themselves don't believe, let alone the Yan people?
But this Chu general finally agreed, he could only guess, guessing that the Yan generals on the other side were the same as himself, and they were unwilling to trigger a new round of national war between Yan and Chu.
The Chu army produced a hundred commanders and handed over the banner.
Later, the centurion came back and spread the word that the Yan people had another request, which was to let him give up the two small military villages nearby.
General Chu agreed and sent someone to inform him;
subsequently
The tension finally eased.
The Yan army stopped the chase game, and the Chu people began to retreat more relaxedly.
Eventually, the two sides disengaged.
After Liang Cheng saw that it was almost there, he left a team of sentry cavalry to be responsible for monitoring, and then led the main force to turn back.
Once, he accompanied the Lord several times to the south with a small number of troops, which can be described as a model of "following the top";
If you start a war, you have to fight if you don't fight, hurry up and fight for you!
Because at that time, the master of his own family was just a small garrison, and he needed to use his military exploits to be promoted, and whatever the overall situation, national politics, he was all on his mother's side.
Now, it's different, it's only been a year since the development of the land of Jindong, the reserves of the war, the quality of the army, and even the overall change of clothing have not yet been completed.
At the same time, the transition of imperial power in the capital of Yan was not completed.
Different statuses, different identities, and different needs, naturally, are different.
After turning back, Liang Cheng led the army back to Qu Peiluo's military village.
After cleaning himself, Qu Peiluo originally wanted to ask to see the princess again, but was directly called by Liang Cheng, who came back with troops.
Starting from Fancheng, this area to the south includes a small half of the original Qu clan's sphere of influence, and now, it is best to fight and compete with the soldiers and horses dominated by the "Chu people".
After Qu Peiluo showed his ability, the resolution of the Hou Mansion, which was actually the resolution negotiated between the blind man and Liang Cheng who stayed behind, was to let Qu Peiluo continue to develop.
First, it can continue to open up the buffer zone for the Fan family, and if there is a big battle between Yan and Chu in the future, as long as the Fan family is not wiped out all at once, they can help the Yan army open up a second battlefield in the area of Mengshan in addition to the Zhennan Pass;
The second is that the Fan family was a slave of the Qu family after all, and the slave turned his back on the master and became the new master, Qu Peiluo's power became stronger, and he could also balance the Fan family.
The way of checks and balances has never been used on one's own people, if it is used well, it is complacent, but in fact it is one's own internal friction, and the correct way to use it should be "to raze and raze".
In the sight of the Hou Mansion, the Fan family and Qu Peiluo are both "Yi".
mentioned a few words to Qu Peiluo, instructed him to take the villages and towns and the strongholds that needed to be established, and at the same time, after pointing out the next trajectory of the development of the forces, Liang Cheng went to see the princess.
At this time, Qu Peiluo was naturally not easy to follow.
The princess met with Liang Cheng, some people, it seems that they are domestic slaves, but you really can't treat them as domestic slaves.
Even as the woman of the Marquis of Pingxi, the princess can clearly perceive that there are some people in this Hou Mansion whose status is actually higher than herself.
"See Madame."
"General Liang has worked hard."
"It's not hard."
Then, there was silence.
After being silent, when the princess was about to say something to alleviate the embarrassment of this silence, Liang Cheng gave up:
"The last will be retired."
"........." Xiong Liqing.
Come and meet the princess,
Just to meet.
As a zombie, he has been learning by the Lord's side for the past two years, learning to communicate, learning not to be so cold, in fact, it is very progressive.
But it was limited to the Lord, the Demon King, and some people he looked down on, such as Section Chief Yu of the Hou Mansion Security Section.
The rest, he was too lazy to be enthusiastic.
Before he departed, the blind man told him to take more care of the princess, for she was the Lord's woman anyway.
Liang Cheng did so,
Come every day to "see Madame",
Then "the last will retire".
fortunately
Xiong Lijing is also used to it,
She also knows that people don't mean it, they just ...... Reluctant to deal with yourself, well, yes.
The next morning,
The princess's carriage was escorted by the army and returned to Van City.
Fanfu,
No
The whole Fan City was beaming with joy.
This kind of joy has far surpassed the victory in the south.
After entering the Fan Mansion, Liu Ruqing hurriedly came over to ask for warmth.
The princess grabbed Liu Ruqing's hand and looked at Gou Moli who walked in.
"What's wrong?" The princess asked, "Look at them all over the city, so excited." ”
Gou Mo is away from selling a pass,
Road:
"Madame, you can guess."
For Zheng Fan, Gou Moli would not speak like this, because the Lord would immediately reply: speak human words directly.
But for others, Gou Mo is clear that the vast majority of superiors like to behave in front of their subordinates.
Then
The maid of the Fan family came up to serve tea.
The princess took the tea and gently stroked the tea surface with the lid of the teacup,
Road;
"Yanjing City, there's news?"
"Madame is wise."
"Emperor Yan has died, and the one who succeeded him was the sixth prince?"
"Subordinates admire."
"Hehehe."
The princess looked at Gou Moli and smiled.
The news of Yanjing was transmitted to the Fan family, Fan Cheng.
Earlier, with the strong decision of the head of the Fan family, Fan Zhengwen stubbornly pulled the Fan family, which has a century-old heritage, and got on the Yanren boat without hesitation.
In this regard, the Fan family is actually quite complaining.
What's so bad about being a slave and being a dog? Isn't it fragrant?
Even now, the Fan family has been erected, the city has been built, and below, like those big nobles of the Chu State back then, they have their own Fan private soldiers.
But the problem is that it is clearly at the point of competition between Yan and Chu, when will there be another national war, and the Fan family will be the first to be affected.
Now, all right.
's own housewife is the sister-in-law of Emperor Dayan of the current dynasty.
The young master of his own family is the cousin of Emperor Dayan of the current dynasty.
Earlier, those who complained now have to admire Fan Zhengwen's foresight.
Thanks to Emperor Dayan's move to destroy the Min family at the time, the current Fan family has become the first relative of the new monarch.
The chicken dog has ascended to heaven, the chicken dog has ascended to heaven!
This happiness has fallen steadily, how can you not celebrate, how can you not be inspired?
Dayan, who knows the roots, knows that it is an extremely tired beast now, but from the outsider's point of view, it is still extremely fierce and powerful.
"Mr. Gou, what should I do next?" Xiong Liqing asked, "Come to think of it, there are some things that Mr. North should have expected a long time ago, right?" ”
"Madam Mingjian, you should know it in your heart."
"It's a bit of a number, but I don't know if it's right."
"Whatever Madame says, it is what it is, and there will be nothing wrong."
Liu Ruqing listened beside her, smiling faintly and implicitly, she was a vase, and she didn't want to get rid of the fate of becoming a vase, but wanted to make a ...... A more delicate vase that the man likes.
At this point, she is different from the princess, of course, this does not mean that Liu Ruqing is not smart.
"In the early years, when I raised my own demon beast, I knew that raising a demon beast could not be blindly only good to it, but I had to knock it a few times from time to time to make it sober and sober its mind, and remember who its real master was."
Saying,
The princess looked at Liu Ruqing and said:
"Sister, do you think so?"
"What my sister means is to knock the Fan family at this time and make the Fan family sober, who is really keeping it?"
"yes, that's what it means."
"But, what should I look for to knock the Fan family from the beginning?" Liu Ruqing wondered.
The Fan family is up and down, but they are extremely polite and thoughtful to their own line.
"Well...... Easy to do. ”
Xiong Lijing sat up straight,
Keep your head down,
looked at the teacup that he had been holding in his hand and talking for a long time, raised it, and took a sip gently,
Then he frowned and said:
"The tea is cold."
forthwith
The princess threw the teacup directly on the ground,
"Bang!"
The sound of the teacup shattering caused the maids outside to hurry over;
The princess is calm,
Said extremely calmly:
"Deliberately serving herbal tea, Fan's family is so snub to the palace, this is not to put the Pingxi Hou Mansion in his eyes, it should be punished!"
