Chapter 938: Sinan
Cheng Jinzhi thought, it was probably moonlight.
He can't tell what day is or what is wrong these days, only that the moonlight is bright and dark.
The same is true in the prison cell.
The injuries on his body consumed almost all of his strength, and when he was confused, he rose and fell on the water like a fallen leaf.
The wound wasn't actually painful, or rather, he didn't feel it at all.
Only the light poured in through the high window, and that was it, illuminating his heart.
In a trance, all he thought of was Lin Wan.
Before the expedition, Lin Wan, who said that he had buried a jar of wine and waited for him to drink together after his victory, flipped his fingers and sewed a peace charm for him, and stared at Lin Wan, who stared at Qionggong in the night sky and said that he wanted to watch the moon with him......
He did not forget, and he did not dare to forget in the slightest.
There were people on the side who kept talking to him, turning over and over, Cheng Jinzhi only heard "daughter-in-law" and "daughter-in-law".
How could he not hold on?
He has to be worthy of Lin Wan.
Later, he came out of the prison, the situation here was completely different from before, he had smelled the smell of medicine, and the smell of the bedding being hot in the sun, sweeping away the dull and corrupt smell of the previous prison, Cheng Jinzhi thought, he could live, he would definitely survive.
His eyes widened again, looking at the light reflected on the quilt.
It was the bright moon that Lin Wan weaved for him, and it was his Sinan who led him home.
He'll definitely walk back.
The heavy clouds gradually blocked the moon again, and Cheng Jinzhi's strength was consumed by most of his strength, and he fell asleep again.
————
At night, the wind blows on the body, which is completely different from the coldness of the north.
The soldiers guarding the pass stood for most of the night, their armor was stained with a thick layer of dew, and from far to near in the north, a string of firelight could be seen, and the sound of horses' hooves gradually became obvious.
The commander explained that the reinforcements would arrive in these two days, and it was difficult for Shu to have the opportunity to go around the back and raid from the north and south, but the soldiers did not dare to relax at all, until they saw the word "Gu" on the raised banner, and most of their hearts fell.
Gu Yunxi and Gu Yunqian led the soldiers who came to support from the north into Xiaguan.
It has been some time since they arrived in the Central Plains, but the cavalry fought in the ice and snow did not adapt to the situation in Shu, so they stayed in Hanzhong to practice according to Su Ningbo's arrangement.
Jiang Muyuan got the letter and hurried out.
In the overnight army, in order to prevent the enemy's sneak attack, almost everyone slept in their clothes, so there was no need to delay.
The herald led the Gu brothers inside, and when they met, Gu Yunxi's "little grandfather" and Gu Yunqian's "brother-in-law" spoke almost at the same time, and as soon as the words fell, the two glanced at each other, their eyes full of surprise.
Gu Yunqian was surprised by Gu Yunxi's seriousness, and Gu Yunxi was surprised by Gu Yunqian's "unreasonableness".
In the past, Gu Yunxi would not be so exquisite, the relationship between in-laws is clear, Jiang Muyuan and several brothers of their Gu family are good friends from birth to death, so there is no need to be so polite.
But now, he is leading the soldiers of the Northland.
Gu Yunyan didn't come, all the soldiers pointed at him, Gu Yunxi was ordered several times by the ear before leaving, and he had to correct his attitude.
The brother-in-law is in front of his uncle, so he naturally loses the upper hand, and he doesn't care if his family is drunk behind closed doors, but in front of people, he still has to save some face for Jiang Muyuan.
Gu Yunxi was careful, but Gu Yunqian obviously didn't think about it that much.
The two of them stared at each other, and they were a little embarrassed for a while.
Jiang Muyuan punched his shoulder, and the embarrassment disappeared suddenly, as if he had returned to the time when he was actively practicing and preparing for a surprise attack on Beidi, and the three of them all laughed, and they said hello.
He took the Gu brothers to Suningbo's tent, and the arrangements for arranging troops were all commanded by Suningbo.
Gu Yunxi listened to the map, faintly aware of some deviations in his heart, he didn't rush to ask, until he came out of the tent, he asked Jiang Muyuan in a low voice: "Hurriedly transferred us from Hanzhong, but Xiaguan is still defense-oriented, and there is no preparation to press forward, is it that Su Ningbo wants to use troops elsewhere?" ”
Jiang Muyuan was not surprised by his sharpness.
The Gu family has fought for so many years, even if Gu Yunxi is young and inexperienced, he has been exposed to it since he was a child, so that he has his own intuition in the deployment of troops.
Jiang Muyuan didn't answer directly, but led the two brothers-in-law to his place, and let the rain stay outside, and then he said, "I want to take some people to the two lakes." ”
Gu Yunqian said: "Qiao Jing's two armies went down the river in vain, are you worried that he won't give up?" ”
"He will definitely not give up," Jiang Muyuan said in a deep voice, "He has been busy training the navy recently, and it seems that he wants to lead the troops himself." ”
The two armies are fighting, scouts and dark piles are indispensable, Gu Yunxi understands, and naturally he will not ask Jiang Muyuan about the source of the news, and Su Ningbo asked Jiang Muyuan to lead the troops to the two lakes, and transferred the troops from the north to defend Xiaguan, he was also worried that Qiao Jing would deceive, gave the scout wrong information, and attacked the west.
Whether it is Xiaguan or the city of the two lakes, it cannot fall into Qiao Jing's hands.
Gu Yunxi wanted to help Jiang Muyuan, but they were soldiers in the north, and charging on horseback was their forte, and there was no advantage in boarding a boat to fight a water battle, eight out of ten would not know water, and if they fell into the water, they would disappear directly, which was similar to sending Qiao Jing for nothing.
Instead of going to the two lakes to send it for nothing, it is better to guard the Xiaguan well.
Although the terrain and topography of the north and south are completely different, the defense of the pass has some similarities, and as long as they follow the command of Su Ningbo, they can play a role.
"Yun Qi was transferred to the Two Lakes to participate in the war, right?" Gu Yunxi asked, "He has followed General Yu in the south for many years, and he has more experience than us." ”
Jiang Muyuan bowed: "The order was sent a while ago, counting the days, it should have already started." ”
Gu Yunqian still missed the time when the brothers were in the north, and worked together to practice, waiting for Gu Yunkang's news, holding back his strength to rush into the grassland to raid Beidi.
He said: "At that time, I was able to defeat Beidi, and today I will definitely let Qiao Jing know that it is powerful." ”
Gu Yunxi also nodded firmly.
Jiang Muyuan said: "The journey is also hard, it is better to rest first, and when the day dawns, I will introduce you to the words and courtesies, and I will also set off." ”
Speaking of the Cheng family, Gu Yunxi frowned slightly: "Isn't Jin Zhi still missing?" ”
They had fought side by side at Yumen Pass, and knowing that Cheng Jinzhi was missing, Gu Yunxi and Gu Yunqian were very worried.
"It's rescued," Jiang Muyuan lowered his voice, "I stole it from Qiao Jing's hands, I can't report it yet, it's hidden everywhere, it's being raised in a safe place, and the injury is quite serious, I just sent a message the day before yesterday, saying that I woke up, and I can say a few words briefly." ”
The Gu family brothers breathed a sigh of relief.
There was some movement outside, and soon, the rain probe brought in a thick letter: "Madame sent it from the capital quickly. ”
