Chapter 382: Official Road
Yu Jingning probably has some inexplicable fate with the camp in the western suburbs.
At the beginning, when he went north to Liaodong Pingwuliangha, he brought the western suburbs battalion, and when he entered Beijing to cover the rebellion, he also asked the western suburbs battalion to borrow troops.
It is unlikely that Yu Jingning will go south alone, and he will not have the skills to transfer troops from the northwest, so the best way is to lead the western suburbs camp south.
Many people in this battalion have long been familiar with Yu Jingning, whether it is the original Liaodong General Army or the current Fujian and Zhejiang General Army, he is still the one after all.
It's just that he was the prince at the beginning, but now he is the prince.
Yu Jingning was riding on a horse, and there was still no blood on his face, thinking that it was because of the illness at the beginning, and he lost it, but this time it has not been relieved. It's just that the spirit is not bad, sitting on the back of the horse, the waist is straight. In the end, he is young, and his foundation has not been completely lost, but now he looks like he is in shape, which makes people feel distressed.
The person who followed on the side turned out to be Che Si'er, who had been in the military factory for a long time.
The flintlock pistol of the military factory = firecracker, Che Si'er tried it for a long time with people, and it was extremely easy to blow up at the beginning, and when he sent Tan Huaiyu back to Beijing from Shandong, he used it once, and then sent it back for transformation.
I still blow up my chamber sometimes, but it's much better than when I started.
Before Yu Jingning set off, Yu Zhiwei specially sent someone to the military factory to ask questions, and heard that the progress was quite smooth, so he transferred Che Si'er out of the military factory, and brought a batch of new flintlock firearms to Yu Jingning to use.
This is the first batch of flint flint guns to be used in war, and I don't know what role it will play on the battlefield.
Che Si'er walked beside Yu Jingning, glanced at his master twice, and asked, "The son of the world...... Lord Wang, it's getting late, why don't we take a rest here first? ”
Yu Jingning waved his hand at Che Si'er and said, "It's okay, let's go quickly, now the Northwest Army is all staying in Nanjing, and there is no one to command, so it's not good to act rashly." It's not an option to stay like this, you have to get there early. The longer this war drags on, the worse it will be for the people. Besides, what the treasury looks like now, I don't say it, I'm afraid you also know that this war has been fought for a small year, and if it drags on, not to mention that the people can't stand it, it is still a question whether there is military pay to support our war. ”
Che Si'er saw that Yu Jingning had said everything to this point, and it was difficult to refute, so he had to respond.
As he was walking, Yu Jingning suddenly muttered: "The one who sent my father back to Beijing also took the official road?" ”
"It's the official road." When Che Si'er mentioned the old master, his eyes couldn't help but be a little wet, "The old prince has returned to Beijing, although it is a beautiful funeral, but in the end it is not a fallen leaf returning to the roots, this is ......"
"A few days ago, a letter came from home, saying that my mother is gone." Yu Jingning lowered his head, but his nose was sore, but there were no tears in his eyes, and the great sorrow and sorrow of those days had consumed all his essence, "The letter said that it was not in early August, and it was not much different from my father." ”
Che Si'er knew that the original Princess Pingshuo was not in good health, and in the first few years, she was hanging in one breath, but she didn't expect to really go with Yu Pu.
"So, before I left, I told my mother to send people back to Jiayuguan." Yu Jingning pinched the reins, looked ahead, and remembered the dream he had when he was in a coma with a high fever before, and his father said to him, "I will leave first with your mother" This is what it meant.
Everything is foreshadowed.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh again, and said, "My father and my mother, the flounder have been in love for many years, and I also saw it in my eyes when I was a child, and now we go together, which can be regarded as a blessing - there will always be a time for reunion." If I fail to let them live and die together, then it is really unfilial. ”
Che Si'er listened to Yu Jingning's revelation a few days ago, and also knew what Yu Jingning was thinking about when he went south this time, so he thought for a while and asked again: "Niangniang, ...... How so? ”
Che Si'er knew the inside story of the two brothers and sisters, and when they were on the battlefield in Liaodong, they even saw a little intriguing feelings.
But this time, Yu Zhiwei has already married a wife, and she is still in a position above 10,000 people under one person, although Che Si'er also regards her as her own master, but in the end, she has not looked at her since she was a child, and she is always afraid of any differences between her and Yu Jingning and the Yu family.
"Niangniang is the daughter of the Yu family." Yu Jingning glanced at Che Si'er, and there seemed to be a warning in her eyes, "When she didn't leave the pavilion, she was the daughter of the Yu family, but now although she has entered the palace and become a queen, she is no different from before." ”
"Subordinates remember." Seeing that Yu Jingning was a little unhappy in his eyes, Che Si'er hurriedly bowed his head and bowed his hand to Yu Jingning.
The two of them didn't say anything more, and walked all the way along the official road.
This is the night, even if you light a torch, you can't march in a hurry, and the situation on the road is not clear, so you can only rely on walking.
"Lord Wang, there are a lot of people in front of me, a little far away, I can't see who they are." The scout in front ran fast, and after a while, he turned back and reported to Yu Jingning.
"Let's let them go, it must be the team of merchants on the road. It's been a few years since the sea ban was closed, and it wasn't easy for them. The wind was strong at night, and the hem of Yu Jingning's clothes was blown to the sound of hunting, and several scouts scattered to report the news of the avoidance to the soldiers.
Just as he was making way for the people in front, a scout came back in front of him, and he galloped his horse, and the smoke and dust came over. When he got off the horse, he didn't stand firmly, and almost fell to the ground with his head, he was in this position, and knelt down for Yu Jingning with a "poof": "Lord Wang!" ”
"Don't worry, get up and talk well." Yu Jingning was not used to seeing such a hurried look, with rebuke in his voice, who knew that the little scout actually knelt on the ground and didn't get up.
Yu Jingning frowned and trained again, and the little scout actually cried out.
This child was originally a soldier under Che Si'er's hands, although Che Si'er has been going to the military factory for a few years, but after all, he still took him, and now when he cries like this, Che Si'er suddenly feels that he can't hold it on his face, and he is about to discipline him.
But I heard the little scout crying: "Lord Wang, the flag of the team in front of you, the little one can see clearly, it is the flag of the Yu family!" ”
The flag of the Yu family!
As if he understood the words, Yu Jingning's horse suddenly raised its hooves and neighed, crying and crying. One by one, the horses in the team neighed as if they had been called. Yu Jingning almost couldn't stop it, and calmed it for a long time before it quieted down.
Yu Jingning turned over and dismounted, walked in front of the little scout, and pressed his shoulders with trembling hands: "What did you say?" ”
"The flag of the Yu family."
