The "Young Master of the Qu Family" gave the order to surrender, and the Left Route Army, overjoyed, immediately unloaded their armor and surrendered, and even, a large group of leaders who had already "anyway" came over to find Uncle Zheng.

Zhang Huangbu agreed to surrender, but did not make a gesture of unloading his armor, but put forward a request to retain the formation, and in addition, he also asked the young master to enter their camp.

Of course, Zhang Huang himself knew that the Yan people would not agree to this request, so mentioning it was equivalent to not mentioning it, but he, the 5,000 people, took advantage of the situation to maintain relative independence, camped by himself, and commanded himself.

However, the fire phoenix flag of Da Chu was taken off, and a black dragon flag was erected, and the most in the army was the clan flag of the Qu clan.

As for Lin Rong, this general has family and country feelings, and as Qu Peiluo expected, Lin Rong did not choose to surrender, but led his troops to retreat south.

He did not attack, already the best restraint.

But alas,

He led the Qingluan army,

And the Qingluan Army is Qu's private army.

The families of the soldiers are old and young, but they all live in the territory of the Qu family, and the young master of the Qu family said to surrender, how dare they be disobedient?

This is not something that can be determined by the Lord's personal ability and charisma, after all, at any time, those who dare to leave their wives and children behind you will always be a minority of the minority.

Therefore, it was not that Lin Rong didn't want to attack, but he knew that he couldn't attack at all.

When retreating to the south, Uncle Zheng did not give the order to pursue, although the Yan army attacked at night, the casualties were not large, but they were all tired, and you asked Zhang Huangbu and Han Xu of the Left Route Army to prepare troops and horses to attack Lin Rongbu;

Too obvious dog-eat-dog drama to make them kill each other is likely to be counterproductive.

However, after Lin Rong's troops retreated south, deserters continued to appear in the team, and they ran directly to Uncle Zheng's side from that side to find the young master.

Therefore, although that force has withdrawn south, it is estimated that it will be difficult to form any decent combat effectiveness.

Next, things were simple, especially after Uncle Zheng decided on the policy of fighting north, the soldiers and horses, which were more "patchwork" than the earliest, began to move north.

The Left Route Army and Zhang Huang's Department were the forwards, and the Yan Army pressed behind.

After a few days of marching, the Left Route Army took the county seat of Chixian, and Zhang Huang's troops took the dock opposite Chixian to control the nearby waters, and also captured some boats of the Chu people's sailors, which were small in number but of great significance.

It's not that these two lines of soldiers and horses are capable of fighting, but that they came over as the "Chu army", and the defenders didn't expect it to be the enemy at all, so it took almost no effort to break through.

Here in Chi County, Uncle Zheng ordered the whole army to rest and recuperate.

meantime

In a suggestive way, tell Han Xu to let his soldiers have some fun.

What it means to let the soldiers have some fun, it's really clear.

Originally, these "two devils" on the side of the Left Route Army, mainly Han Xu, seemed to be very responsible and diligent because they were pressed by the Yan people on the top of their heads.

is obviously more effective than Zhang Huang's part, in short, he tries his best to serve the Yan people and do things for the Yan people, so as to gain the recognition of the Yan people's "father".

They did not dare to indulge, nor did they dare to make mistakes;

But now,

The "father" of the Yan people asked them to let go and play, and they were ordered to "play", which was naturally even more willing.

Because, it is too difficult to restrain the tribes under his command, especially with the labels of "defeated army" and "surrendered army", the morale of the army is not to say that it is slack, but the morale must be quite low.

After the good intentions were conveyed by the respective generals, the original left road sergeants began to let go of Huan'er and began to loot in groups, and in the county seat of Chi County, they broke down and robbed door to door, and the households under the county seat were also exploited in various ways.

In this regard, Zhang Huangbu still adhered to his camp and did not respond.

Two days later, the Yan army marched again, continued northward, and entered the next county boundary.

The Left Route Army, which had the experience of the last time, immediately began to burn and loot after taking the county seat with insufficient defenders in a hurry, which was even more excessive than in Chi County a few days ago.

When he was in Chi County, he just stripped some family wealth, but this time, he knocked out the bones and sucked the marrow, and the livestock and poultry were snatched to eat, and anything valuable and easy to carry was taken away, and the women were wantonly humiliated.

forthwith

Two days later,

The Yan army opened again and continued northward.

This time, it was clearly visible that the speed of the march had become faster, especially the Left Route Army, whose will to advance was even higher, and Zhang Huang's troops were obviously suppressing a certain emotion.

This time

They encountered a Chu army, but it was only a local army, and the number was small, and the combined army composed of two local minor nobles was more than 2,000 people.

The imperial army has crossed the border, and the auxiliaries and people have already been requisitioned, so these two local small nobles really can't gather more strength.

The Yan army did not move, the left army attacked its left flank, and Zhang Huang's army attacked its right flank, and defeated this ragtag Chu army in a battle.

Followed by

The Yan army entered and began to set up camp.

The leaders of the left army began to wreak havoc on the place with their respective men, and this time, Zhang Huang's troops no longer continued to defend themselves, let go of the camp, and the soldiers came out and joined the raiding team.

On the previous two occasions, it was Zhang Huang who relied on his personal prestige to forcibly suppress his subordinates.

But the same soldiers of the Chu Army, looking at the things that were not on the table of the Left Route Army, eating and drinking spicy, burning, killing and looting, so unhappy, how could the soldiers of Zhang Huang's department not be blushing?

People are dashing,

Why do we want to be saints?

have all surrendered to the Yan people, what kind of Qinggao is still pretending?

It can be said that as soon as the Qingluan army fell, the first thing that was destroyed was actually the belief and pride of this army, whether it was a person or a group, when these two things were destroyed, the valve of degeneration had actually been opened.

Zhang Huang didn't let go of his subordinates and let them loot to release the depression in his heart, maybe his soldiers would mutiny, kill them, and then surrender to the Yan people in all directions.

After the surrender of the young master of the Qu family, he, a retainer of the Qu family, was actually dealt a great blow in law.

Even the low-level soldiers also know a truth, Yan Ren only cares about whether the dogs under his hands are obedient or not, and they don't care about what the dog's head is.

There is a saying that the soldiers are like bandits, but in fact, even if they are the king of the mountains who fall into the grass, they also pay attention to the mode of raising leeks, and really make the four miles and eight towns into a no-man's land, how will their harvest be counted in the future?

But when the soldiers are in chaos, they really don't pay so much attention, so they are extremely ruthless.

Compared with the cruelty of the Chu people's pawns to the Chu people,

On the Yan side, it seems to be very "indifferent".

First, because among the Yan army, the prohibition of alcohol is very strict, once the alcohol is banned, and then, no matter how indulgent the soldiers are, there is a limit;

Moreover, this Yan army was led by Uncle Zheng to go deep behind enemy lines, burn the granary of Jingcheng, besiege the regent of Chu, and then defeat the Qingluan army to capture the young master of the Qu family.

After being satisfied, it is natural that you will no longer be so hungry and thirsty.

The most important thing is that although the Yan people did not go out to plunder, but fell steadily in the military village, half of the goods looted by the Chu people every day would be sent to the Yan army military village.

Uncle Zheng has never cared much about things like goods, and directly distributed them to the soldiers.

If you don't have to dirty your hands, the benefits will still fall into the bag, and Yan Jun is also happy to be idle;

Of course, if you want to say regret, there must be that;

But Sergeant Yan is still a little reserved in his heart, and he can't be as virtuous as those Chu people, embarrassed, and embarrassed by his uncle's face.

………

Outside the military village, you can see a group of Chu soldiers tying up several local folk girls and walking over, and behind them, they also pulled a cow and two pigs.

The woman was already crying and screaming, and it was as if she had resigned herself to her fate.

Xu An watched this scene through the fence, and his mood was a little low.

He thought of the scene when the Qingluan Army entered Yupan City, when his whole family was arrested to work as laborers, his mother was separated from them, and in the end, he couldn't find out where his mother went......

To be exact,

It's the mother's body, where the hell is it.

Right now, the Chu people are doing the same thing in front of them, but the targets of violence have become the Chu people's own people.

Unlike Xu An's emotional richness,

Guo Dong leaned against the fence, constantly stroking the handle of his knife with his hand, looking intoxicated.

Since Uncle Zheng borrowed his knife from that day, as long as he is free, he has this expression, this appearance.

However, after finding that Xu An was looking at him, Guo Dong still raised his head, coughed twice, and said with some embarrassment:

"These Chu people are really interesting, they can be so ruthless to their own people."

Xu An nodded and said; "Chu people don't feel that they are Chu people, just like we Jin people, in fact, we don't think we are Jin people."

"Why?" Guo Dong scratched his head.

"Huh."

Xu An smiled and said, "Which noble family do the Chu people think they are, we Jin people used to be divided into three families, whoever owns the family, who owns who's family." ”

"We're not like that." Guo Dong said, "We Yan people have always felt that we are Yan people. ”

Xu An was noncommittal.

"You don't believe me?" Guo Dong asked.

"I believe it." Xu An replied.

The Yan people have always been the Yan people, which is actually inaccurate, because the Yan Kingdom also had a family of gate valves before, but in the final analysis, the Zhenbei Hou Mansion has only been standing for a hundred years, and the real sense of the Great Yan has cut off the threat from the desert, in fact, it is less than a Jiazi.

In the bones of the Yan people, there is still the spiritual imprint of fighting with the barbarians from their own emperor to the desert.

And most importantly.........

This is what Xu An saw as a "Jin person",

It may be that Yan Guo's repeated victories in foreign wars over the years have stimulated the pride in the bones of these Yan people, and the identity of Yan people has suddenly become noble.

It is difficult for a person to recognize a lowly identity; But if you want to recognize a "noble" identity, you will inevitably rush to it.

Xu An likes to watch, think, and observe, in Guo Dong's words, once he doesn't fight, Xu An likes to be in a daze.

"I heard the general above, if you go further north, you should be about to meet the army of Chu." Xu An said.

Ordinary soldiers, in fact, do not have a clear idea of their position, but Xu An has, he will pay attention to the conversation between the lieutenant and the generals, and at the same time, he will also pay attention to some opportunities to find out about the local Chu people.

Ask how far it is from Zhennanguan and Shanggu County.

Although these messages are incomplete, inaccurate, and unsystematic, they can at least give Xu An a general understanding in his mind.

The Chu people now have two lines of defense, one is Zhennan Pass;

The other is the army led by Zhu Guo Dugu Nian on the other side of Jingcheng along the line of the Wei River.

As for his own house, he is actually in the hollow area behind the Chu people.

Of course, it is not strictly hollow, because the Qingluan army came to encircle and suppress them, but they were defeated on their own side.

"Hey, when the battle is over, I'm going to pick up my mother, my brother and the girl Na Shui, and come over together." Guo Dong said.

Xu An was a little surprised: "Didn't you say that you want to unload your armor and return to the field?" ”

"Reward." Guo Dong said, "The reward is rich, now it is very rich, when the battle is over, there will be a new reward, hehe, I used to think about going back, it was really because I couldn't give up my family, and besides, my mother and my brother are not suitable for a long road."

But as long as there is enough money, a carriage, and a good way to eat and drink on the road, what else can be the problem?

If the silver is enough, there will be no problem, the bride price is enough, and Miss Ashui's family is willing to let her out with me. ”

"Next time, I will let you have two more heads, you will be promoted, and your Ah Shui girl's family will come with you, and your father-in-law will not dare to put up a fight against you."

"Don't don't, brothers, don't talk this kind of." Guo Dong immediately shook his head and said seriously, "If you are short of money, I will borrow it from you, anyway, if you Xu An eats enough for the whole family and is not hungry, I will not be polite to you." But the future is yours, and I can't delay your future.

You have a better brain than me, you can learn everything faster than me, you have a great future in the future, my father also said to me, saying that you are brighter than me. ”

Xu An shook his head and said, "I'm a Jin person." ”

"Then General Jin is still a barbarian!"

Guo Dong shouted.

"Presumptuous, bold!"

Then

The two knights outside the fence scolded directly.

Seeing this, Guo Dong was stunned, because he saw that behind the two knights, there was a general on horseback, the general was dressed in black armor and did not wear a helmet, revealing a face that was extremely obvious to a barbarian.

The fence is opened,

The two knights rode over first, and it seemed that they were going to land again, but they were directly scolded by the alchemy behind them: "Get out of the way." ”

The two knights immediately got out of the way.

Alchemy rode slowly over,

Guo Dong and Xu An immediately saluted:

"See General Kim!"

"See General Kim!"

Alchemy laughed and waved his whip twice, and scolded the two knights in front of him, who were also his own personal guards:

"What's wrong with the barbarian, I'm just a barbarian, it's not a shame to be called a barbarian, what are you doing in a hurry, my uncle doesn't pay so much attention to what is inferior and inferior, I need you two to help me show off my power here?

What's the matter, do you want the big guys to know that my shelf is bigger than Uncle's? ”

After alchemy reprimanded the two guards,

submit

looked at Guo Dong first,

Road:

"What are you talking about?"

Guo Dong hurriedly raised his head and said, "Back to the general's words...... I...... I ......"

Guo Dong was still a little nervous, firstly, he dug a pit by himself, and secondly, although Yanren's identity has an advantage in the army, it depends on who he compares with.

Who doesn't know that the barbarian-born general in front of him is the uncle's confidant and favorite general?

In the Snow Customs Army, the first person that Uncle trusted was General Liang.

General Liang's ability is also to serve both up and down;

The second one to trust is this General Jin, who has never disappointed his uncle, and during the first battle of Dongshan Fort, he was the last to kill and reverse the situation, which can be regarded as saving the uncle.

Xu An answered: "Back to the general's words, my brother said that I have a good brain, and I will have a great future in the future, I said to him, I am a Jin person, not a Yan person, my brother in order to encourage me, just say, General Jin, you are also from a barbarian, not a Yan person, but you can still do the position of a general and become the uncle's right-hand man." He said that under the rule of our uncle, there is no class in education, as long as you are willing to serve, as long as you are loyal to your uncle, you will definitely be able to get ahead. ”

Jin Shuke looked at Xu An and didn't speak.

Xu An slowly lowered his head.

Long

Alchemy is ridiculous,

He thought of the time when he had been guarding the gates.

At that time, he was actually not good at speaking Xia language, and he often made mistakes in idioms and often made jokes;

but

He's still a good talker.

He rose step by step by virtue of his military exploits to gain the appreciation of his uncle.

But if it weren't for the recommendation of the original Sword Master,

He didn't have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions at all.

"What's your name?"

"Back to the general's words, the little one is called Xu An."

"Literate?" Alchem asked.

Xu An nodded; "Literate, I went to private school for a few years when I was a child."

"What about horseback riding?"

"Yes!"

"Cheng, talk to you chief, just say what I said, Ming'er, go to my tent to be a personal guard."

"Thank you, General!"

Xu An solemnly knelt down and kowtowed three times, which was a solemn etiquette.

At this time, the eyes gathered around him gradually increased.

Alchem raised his head, glanced around, and said loudly:

"Under the command of the uncle, no matter where you are, as long as you are willing to work hard, as long as you have the ability, the uncle does not distinguish your background, and the rewards and punishments are clear!

I

Alchemy,

A brute,

To be able to sit in this position is the best proof of this!

I can have today,

In the future, you will also be able to have it, you can fight with your uncle, and you will have to rely on life and death, this is the blessing that we Qiu Basan have cultivated in our lives! ”

After that,

Alchem can ride away, he still has military information to report.

After Alchemy and his guards left,

Many people came up to congratulate Xu An.

After coping with it,

Xu An breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling like he was dreaming.

He looked back,

looked at Guo Dong, who was still leaning against the fence, he was still stroking the handle of the knife, intoxicated.

Xu An said;

"You just shouted when you saw General Kim coming."

Guo Dong woke up from his intoxication, was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xu An, and smiled softly,

Road;

"Aang."

There's still a chapter around one o'clock in the morning, don't panic!
