Tan Yin and Honeysuckle were so bored that they were going to get moldy all over, and on this day, the two finally dragged Lian Sang to Yingzhou City for a walk.

The streets were full of pedestrians, and from time to time there were tall fair-skinned, blonde, blue-eyed, black-faced, and sturdy gentiles walking by, and the costumes and jewelry were different from those of Middle-earth.

The Daxia man is tall and big, with round arms and waists, and his arms are much thicker than honeysuckle's thighs. The girl's posture is vigorous and her body is well-proportioned, which is completely different from the softness of the Jiangnan girl.

The two of them were surprised when they looked at these gentiles when they first entered the city, and now Honeysuckle stared at them all the time, and was dragged by Tan Yin.

"Girl, their hair curls are pretty good, wouldn't it look good if our hair curls?" Honeysuckle asked.

Tan Yingge was stunned for a moment, the questions thrown by honeysuckle often make it difficult for her own girls.

"Well, it should look good, too." Tan Yin looked at Honeysuckle's hair and thought for a while

Lian Sang interjected: "There is also a girl here who uses a round rod to roll up a few strands of hair on her temples, and after a night, the hair will be curled, which has a different taste." ”

When Honeysuckle heard this, her eyes lit up and she was eager to try.

"Sister Liansang, do you say these foreigners are the same as us?" Honeysuckle asked curiously.

"What do you mean?" Lian Sang said: "They are also human beings, the girls love beauty equally, and the children also love to play. But it's different, what they believe in and like is different from ours. ”

……

Several people went to a lot of places, Tan Yin wanted to go to the bookstore, Honeysuckle wanted to go to the spice shop, and went to the jewelry and fabric store, but it was just a quick look.

"Madame, don't be in a hurry, it's not too late to come out next time and take a slow stroll." Lian Sang persuaded.

"But aren't we going to Liangzhou soon?" Honeysuckle asked.

"Don't get in the way, Liangzhou is more than 300 miles away from here, it was originally the first important town in Hexi, and now that it is back in Dazhao, the caravans will rest there, and there will be some here." Lian Sang comforted.

At noon, a few people simply had lunch, and as soon as they came out of the restaurant, they saw many people on the street in groups of three or two, hurrying in a hurry, running in one direction, and beckoning to their companions: "Hurry up, hurry up, take a good position." ”

Tan Yin looked at Lian Sang suspiciously, and she also shook her head.

Lian Sang stopped one person and asked about the situation, only to know that everyone was going to listen to the story, and what he was talking about today was the Liangzhou War, which had occurred less than half a year ago.

Hexi has always been a place where soldiers must fight, and the people are fierce. The people are no strangers to war, and the heroes or heroes of the past dynasties have sung and I have appeared, leaving countless legends.

Today's storyteller is what is happening here and now, which naturally attracts the people to listen.

When Tan Yin heard this, she immediately became interested, and Honeysuckle liked it too.

Lian Sang was a little hesitant, afraid that there would be a large number of people and a mixture of fish and dragons, but seeing the big sparkling eyes of the two of them, and he also wanted to go, he took care of both public and private affairs, and pretended to agree reluctantly.

The storytelling venue was in a teahouse, and by the time the three of them arrived, the cheap seats had already been snatched up, leaving only the most expensive small private room on the second floor.

Entering the field, there is a half-person high platform in the middle of the first floor, on which a table and a chair are placed, and a piece of wood and a cup of tea are placed on the table.

There are dozens of rows of seats on the table, and there is a small private room on the second floor. Good fellows, there are two or three hundred people.

Storyteller Chen Tianfang, who is in his forties, is quite famous in the Hexi generation, and appeared in the anticipation and thunderous applause of everyone.

Chen Tianfang looks ordinary, neither tall nor short, and there is nothing special about him, but when he stands on the stage for such a moment, the whole stage becomes completely his, and everyone's eyes are focused on him.

His voice was loud and penetrating, and the whole field was filled with his voice. As soon as he spoke, he sucked everyone in.

......

"Yo, there are so many people here today, thanks to all the officials. The contemptible surname Chen, the name Tianfang, a native of Dunhuang, migrated to Hexi from China 500 years ago, and has lived here for generations. ”

"This Yingzhou is entrenched on the Yellow River, the gateway to the west of the river, and returned to Jokhang two years ago. I've been to Yingzhou many times over the years, this time, ho, good guys, this shop is more than twice as many as before, and the lights are bright at night, like day, and even the moon in the sky is useless. I don't envy it! ”

"Everyone has experienced the great victory in Yingzhou, and today I will talk about this great victory in Liangzhou."

"Among the four towns in Hexi, Liangzhou and Ganzhou are the narrowest places, and Jiuquan and Dunhuang are wide at the west exit, which can be said to be the two states of Liangzhou and Ganzhou to get Hexi."

"Many people said that the victory in Yingzhou was a fluke, and the prince of Great Xia did not lead the Iron Harrier Army to battle. Some people privately say that Yingzhou's victory came too easily, and I am afraid that Yingzhou will not be able to protect it for a long time. ”

"Who would have thought that in less than two years, Dazhao would instead take Liangzhou, the first important town in Hexi, which is really a big surprise, beyond everyone's expectations, let me talk to you about the process today."

This storyteller opens and closes, and the tone is frustrated.

Sometimes it is like a mountain waterfall, thrilling and exciting, making people raise their hearts to their throats; Sometimes it is like gurgling water, flat and gentle, which makes people feel happy and happy. Sometimes the wind and rain are strong, and the horses are galloping, which makes people's hearts surge; From time to time, the flowers are under the moon, and the visitors are out, so that people can go with money.

"First of all, let's take a look at the main players of these two sides. The main general of Great Xia is the crown prince Yuanyou, and the main general of Dazhao is Yang Che, the marquis of Zhenbei. ”

"This Daxia prince Yuanyou is eight feet tall, his eyes are like copper bells, and his face is like black charcoal, so he makes a two-hundred-pound long-handled crescent knife, rides a black horse to chase the wind, is brave and good at fighting, and has a thousand catties of arm strength. I heard that Zeng Ge fought and killed tigers, and everywhere he went, he was like a strong wind passing through the grass, and he did not hesitate. ”

When Honeysuckle heard this, he whispered to Tan Yin: "Girl, is this prince a dark yaksha!" ”

Tan Yin snorted and laughed, looked around, and immediately sat upright.

"Those disobedient children crying at night, parents just say, 'Cry again, and let Prince Yuanyou arrest you.'" No child will dare to cry anymore. ”

This is not just a dark yaksha, it is simply a black impermanence! Tan Yin smiled secretly.

"When you hear me say this, do you think that this Great Xia prince is brave and reckless? If Yuan You is such a figure, he is ranked fourth, and his mother's family is just an ordinary family, how can he stand out among the more than ten sons of Emperor Xia and become the prince? ”

Lian Sang looked at Tan Yin Honeysuckle and made a look, you two guessed wrong!

"This person is brave and strategic, very good at strategy, and has dozens of strategists under him, and he is really a strong opponent."

"Nearly 100 years after the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty, this Iron Harrier Army is the most elite cavalry, and the war horses are all domesticated horses in Hexi and the grassland, and the horse head is equipped with a black cast iron helmet. The cavalry was trained since childhood, invincible, invincible, and surrendered in the Western Regions. ”

"After talking about this Great Xia Lord, let's talk about Yang Che, the northern marquis of this town."

"This Yang Che and Yuan You are completely different, if Yuan You is the Kansai Han, Yang Che is the weak scholar. This person is as majestic as a jade mountain, as beautiful as a standing pine, one word is beautiful, and two words are very beautiful. ”

At this time, one of the people in the audience laughed out loud: "The three words are extremely beautiful, and the king of Xiangyang went to rob him, and in the end he ended up being beheaded all over the house, which is comparable to a red face and trouble." ”

The audience burst into laughter.

Lian Sang was extremely angry, and stood up with a bang, just about to go to the man.

Tan Yin immediately grabbed her and asked her to sit down, "Don't worry, I'll talk about something later." ”

When Chen Tianfang heard this, he said to the man: "I said that this spectator seems to have a little misunderstanding of Zhenbei Hou. Today this is Chen's field, and listen to me slowly, if you still say this after listening to the story, it means that the contemptible person has no ability, and I will quit this business. ”

There were already people whispering around, it turned out that this was a scoundrel in the city, and he didn't know how to say this in public.

Chen Tianfang continued: "Don't look at this Yang Che who looks like a white-faced scholar, he may have a lot of patience. Ladies and gentlemen, this Hexi has fought four major battles before, but failed to recapture a city, but lost Yingzhou, and this person took Yingzhou back as soon as he came. ”

"This Yang Che was a scholar before the age of fifteen, and a martial artist after the age of fifteen, he had never fought at all before, and his generals had few victories, and they were mainly infantry, and there were not many cavalry, who do you say can afford him, who can afford the army of Zhao."

"Two years ago, in the Battle of Yingzhou, the second prince of Great Xia was arrogant and came over with 30,000 ordinary cavalry of Great Xia. Yang Che avoided his edge, deliberately showed weakness, lured the enemy deep, outflanked him from behind the enemy, caught him off guard, took Yingzhou and some horse farms, and slowly trained cavalry. ”

"This time, Yuan You sent the former general Utu to lead 10,000 Iron Harrier Army and 10,000 cavalry to Liangzhou, as the vanguard, he will also personally lead 20,000 Iron Harrier Army to the border, preparing to take Yingzhou, and then invade the interior of Dazhao."

"For a while, the dark clouds on the border suddenly changed, and the flames of war were about to start. When the people heard this, they dragged their children and daughters and fled Yingzhou to the Central Plains. ”

Tan Yin suddenly remembered that when she was in the Suzhou noodle restaurant, someone at the table next to her was saying that the border was in an emergency, and the people would suffer from war again. After a few months, I didn't expect to take Liangzhou.

"Seeing that Yingzhou is about to be lost, and the land of Shaanxi and Gansu is about to be lost, the Zhao up and down is called a worry, and the government and the opposition are constantly hotly discussed, and there are different opinions. However, the whole of Great Xia was boiling with blood, gearing up, vowing to be ashamed of the snow, and this war was about to break out. ”

Chen Tianfang slapped a board of shocking wood, and with a "snap", everyone scratched their ears and cheeks, and listened to the next story.
