Chapter 434: Ningde
On November 20, the tenth year of Changzhi, the Heng army advanced from Taizhou and Haimen to Wenzhou, annihilated a small group of rebel troops, and the rebel army joined forces with the Japanese and returned to Fujian; On November 22, the Heng army took advantage of the victory to pursue the official attack on Fujian, and encountered the Japanese rebel army in Fu'an, and fought fiercely for half a day, the coalition army was defeated, and on November 24, camped in Ningde.
Lin Xieyuan and Jiubao could no longer follow the army, one stayed in Ningbo and the other stayed in Haimen, Yu Jingning reported an "important military situation" and fooled them, nominally recuperating from their injuries and arranging other jobs for them, but in fact they were imprisoned.
It is now the middle of winter, and although the sea surface of the East China Sea has not frozen into a fertile field like Liaodong Bay, it is also different from the summer time.
When the tide of the sea is low, sometimes it recedes overnight, but only for three or four hours, and the mud on the tidal flats forms a large pile of ice ballast, and sometimes the ice is so hard that people and horses can step on it. But usually it doesn't freeze for that long, it doesn't freeze solidly, and on the surface it looks like it's frozen, but in fact, when you step up, it's all stuck in the soft mud.
Because they hit the enemy's lair, Yu Jingning, Che Si and Gu Cheng no longer divided into three routes, but all gathered together, they stayed in Ningde for three or four days, and the scouts under Che San's hands stayed near Ningde for three or four days, and finally found a place where the Japanese were hiding.
When the young scouts returned, they were covered in water, and the water froze again, and they immediately froze into ice ballast. These are all teenagers, and their bodies are full of fire, but they can't stand the humid and cold climate on the beach in Ningde, and the little scouts are all shrinking their necks one by one, and their teeth are chattering from the cold.
When the wind picked up at night, a cool breeze blew, and Yu Jingning heard one sneeze after another.
Yu Jingning raised his eyes, and the little scout standing closest was still childish, covering his neckline, and the tip of his nose was red from the cold.
He put down the battle report in his hand and said to Che San: "Let's lead these children down first, and change into dry clothes." By the way, I'm looking for the cook, let me boil out a big pot of ginger soup, and don't leave one bowl of one person behind. When everything is ready, it's not too late to come back and report back to me. It just so happens that they are all calculating in their own hearts, and how to say it is concise and clear. ”
Che San said "yes" and drove a group of children under his hands out.
Yu Jingning's tent suddenly quieted down, and Mingdu helped him cut the lantern flowers to make the tent brighter, and asked, "Lord, do you want to add another lamp?" ”
"No, that's enough." Before Yu Jingning finished speaking, Mingdu exclaimed next to him, which made Yu Jingning inexplicable, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's okay, lord, bug." Mingdu took his hand off the table, and there was a big insect on it, "I just didn't expect to see this kind of thing in this season." ”
He patted the things on his hands, found a towel and wiped it, and slapped himself jokingly: "It's all small, it's disturbing the prince to write an excerpt." ”
"Alright, be quiet." Yu Jingning waved his hand at him, Mingdu saluted him, and went about his own business.
Yu Jingning was busy writing the excerpt, reporting the latest battle plan to the imperial court, and by the way, he ......
To be honest, he was actually embarrassed to ask the court for silver - this was not asking He Xiao for silver, this was asking Yu Zhiwei for silver, this was forcing Yu Zhiwei and Tan Huaiyu and a group of people to go to the road of Zhou Peeling.
If we want to open up sources and reduce expenditure, we naturally cannot reduce military spending, and what will be reduced is something else.
As soon as Yu Jingning thought of this, he began to sigh, and originally wanted to read the excerpt he had just written again, but he didn't know what was going on, and he couldn't read a word.
The python pattern he wears is a bow bag sleeve, which is not wrapped around the arm, and the cuff can hold things.
Yu Jingning's hand retreated into his sleeve, and a gadget slipped out of his sleeve.
Yu Zhiwei left something in the barracks, and it was not something important. The generals of the Heng Army have always been in military uniforms, and Yu Zhiwei is no exception. After Yu Zhiwei left, Yu Jingning personally went to clean up the camp tent where she lived, and found a belt hook on the bed, and I don't know when it fell off her leather belt.
Yu Jingning took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and found that the skin on the hook had been worn off, and then it fell off.
This is what he is holding in his hand now.
At the beginning, Yu Zhiwei made a belt hook for him, which was a gift to celebrate his fifteenth birthday.
and the one his parents gave him, hanging on two leather belts, and the one that was tied in exchange happened to be the one she made today.
He rubbed the hook in his hand gently, a little afraid to recall their past.
Hearing that she had arrived in the capital safely, Yu Jingning thought that it was much colder in Beijing than in Jiangnan, but I was afraid that the snow would be a foot thick.
He thought about it, and leaned back in his chair.
After Yu Zhiwei "broke off his relationship" with him, he never dared to see her, but in the barracks, he didn't look up and looked down, and the doctor always asked the two to go out for a walk, and it was inevitable that there would be a time when they would meet.
It's too suspicious to run away, and you can only pretend not to see it, and then walk away in two different directions.
It really can't be avoided, and Yu Zhiwei will also politely say to him: "Brother Wan'an." ”
Just like when she lost her temper with him when she was a child, she had a small face, and talked to him with 120,000 seriousness, without a trace of superfluous emotion in her tone.
But this time it was different from usual, and no matter how many gadgets he took out, he couldn't coax her.
There's no going back.
It's funny to think about it, when they were on Putuo Mountain, they didn't say a few words of love and vows, and the big Buddha in front of them didn't even have a head, but how could they just say that "if there is an afterlife".
It's impossible in this life and this life.
"Lord Wang." The sound from the door dragged Yu Jingning out of his thoughts, this was Che San's voice, "The children under my hands are all tidied up, does the prince want them to come in this time?" ”
Yu Jingning coughed lightly, coughing out some distracting thoughts that shouldn't be in his mind, and then said to the outside of the tent: "Let them all come in." ”
Che San opened the tent door and gestured to the people behind him, and a few small scouts who had changed their clothes rushed in. Luckily, it doesn't look so cold that it hurts to the bones.
Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
