Chapter 59: The Fall of the Childe
The day after Xie Junrui returned, the Huiyi army launched a round of attack, Gu Yange sat with the prince in the general's palace, the prince was covered in cold sweat, and he was not stable in the chair. Gu Yange was the same, inexplicably looking at the prince. I have a feeling that I want to live and die with this city.
The people in the city are very peaceful, and they can't sleep because they are too noisy outside, so they light the lamps and gossip on the street, the one who said how the Huiyi army was beaten and fled in panic last time, and how heroic Xiao Yongye was last time, and defeated the Huiyi people on the shore of the backwater.
This kind of atmosphere is much better than the situation of Gu Yange and the crown prince, in the end, the people in this city have been war-torn for a long time, even when they hit outside the city wall, they have not really panicked, this is a city built for war, and most of the people here are retired veterans. Taking advantage of such a night, the big guy took out the eventful years of the past and remembered it.
When Gu Yange heard the people talking like this, he deliberately pulled the prince to change his clothes and slipped out into the street, and the guards stared at him from behind, but they had no choice but to follow. Even if the lights were lit on the street, it was a little dim, Gu Yange asked Fu Shu to move a chair, and sat down in a corner with the prince who was not much noticed, listening to everyone talk about the past events that made people's blood boil.
"Brother Prince, the people here are much more stable than we thought, and their calmness shows how scared the two of us are." Gu Yange looked at the prince, and the prince also calmed down, listening carefully to the chatter of the neighbors.
"This group of Hui Yi children who killed a thousand knives, if the general king is still there, where can they be arrogant, when the general king was there, they didn't even dare to fight on the edge of the backwater, but now it's good, they dare to call out on the edge of the backwater, it's really a group of fucking soft-footed insects."
This sentence was echoed by many people, and someone in the crowd said: "Lao Zhang, don't complain, now that General Xiao is with you, that's not the same to make the Hui Yi people frightened, General Xiao has returned to the capital in the past two years and has not governed the army, as soon as I get up, I can't sleep well every night, as soon as General Xiao comes, we are all down-to-earth." ”
Everyone nodded again, and then heard someone say: "General Xiao used to be praised by the general king, and now that General Xiao is here, the general king can go with peace of mind." That's right. Didn't the girl of the general king come to Jialin, I saw it that day, and the heroic spirit between the eyebrows and eyes was exactly the same as that of the general king back then. ”
"It's okay not to say it, but when I talk about it, the old man wiped his tears again, and look at the election. That day, I saw the county lord on the street, and I was stunned to say that the general king was back again, and the county lord was a delicate girl's house, where was it like. ”
Gu Yange's face turned red, how did the topic come to her, the power of gossip is really powerful. Holding his forehead and continuing to listen, someone jumped out and said: "Don't say that I feel like it, no matter how delicate it is, the eyebrows and eyes are simply the return of the general king, I glanced at it from a distance that day, and I was so excited that I didn't sleep for three days." As soon as I think back to the days when I fought side by side with the general king, I can't wait to go back to the past, bitter is bitter, tired is tired, but my heart is comfortable and I live steadily. ”
When the conversation was in full swing here, it was the time when the sound of swords and soldiers shook the sky outside the city, Xiao Yongye sat in the big tent, listening to the news from all walks of life from time to time, and dealt with it calmly and quickly. Xie Junrui stepped forward from time to time to make ideas, but most of them were vetoed before they were handed to Xiao Yongye.
Xiao Yongye was so busy that he didn't even have time to look at Xie Junrui, let alone listen to Xie Junrui's unrealistic ideas, at this time, someone came in to do something, Xiao Yongye didn't have time to say anything after hearing it, Xie Junrui took it upon himself to order. Fortunately, the young general is not a vegetarian, so naturally he will not listen to Xie Junrui, but still stands in place and waits for Xiao Yongye's words.
Xiao Yongye first commanded, and then glanced at Xie Junrui coldly, he didn't speak, but the meaning couldn't be more obvious, but Xie Junrui was not interested, and still stayed in the big tent to give ideas enthusiastically. Xiao Yongye lowered his head and continued to read the battle report, ignoring Xie Junrui.
An attack ended in the early hours of the morning, after cleaning the battlefield and ordering the troops and horses, the generals of each battalion said a few words and went back to sleep, this night's battle was no different to Xiao Yongye. But for Xie Junrui, the stakes are so big, he didn't even have an idea, which made his ambitions nowhere to show, making him feel that his talent was wasted, and Xiao Yongye was afraid that he would rob the military merits, so he ignored his idea.
Xiao Yongye knew what Xie Junrui was thinking, and said a few words lightly, but when the generals next to him were already trembling when they heard it, Xie Junrui still didn't notice it.
People who have been with Xiao Yongye for a long time know that Xiao Yongye has always had a cold face, and he is also cold when he speaks, but if someone listens to Xiao Caiye's light words, it is definitely cold to the heart when they fall into the ice hole in winter. When the generals looked at Xie Junrui's gaze again, they were disgusted, Xiao Yongye was not in the army for a day or two, and Xie Junrui had a short time in the army, but fortunately, he was an expert, and the generals had long since stopped seeing him.
Three days later, the army came again, Xie Junrui said a word and handed over an idea, but he didn't even look at him directly, Xie Junrui felt that his "prestige" was questioned, and rushed to Xiao Yong's night tent and said angrily: "General Xiao, how do you govern the army, how can they not obey the military order." ”
Xiao Yongye was reviewing the notes from each battalion, and after listening to Xie Junrui's words, he answered coldly, and asked without raising his head: "May I ask Inspector Xie, which military order they do not obey, please Inspector Xie make it clear." ”
Xie Junrui recounted what happened to him just now, Xiao Yongye raised his head this time, but his eyes were even colder: "Xie Dujun, if the general is not mistaken, the military order can only be counted from the general's account, and the general's big seal can be counted." I don't know where Xie Dujun got these military orders, but the general doesn't remember that they were issued. ”
Xie Junrui was furious when he heard this, threw the curtain out of the curtain, returned to his big tent, and said as he walked: "If you don't listen to me, let you not listen to me, and when the time comes, you will lose the battle, and it has nothing to do with me." ”
Jiang Xingyu was sitting in the big tent in the clothes of a small soldier, and when she heard Xie Junrui coming in, she hurriedly got up to greet her. Xie Junrui suddenly found another person to talk to. Hurriedly pulled Jiang Xingyu to pour bitter water, Jiang Xingyu listened, and counted those people for Xie Junrui, Xie Junrui felt that he was extremely correct when he heard it. And everyone else is wrong, the most hateful is Xiao Yongye.
After Xie Junrui finished speaking, he praised Jiang Xingyu, but Jiang Xingyu was hesitating in her heart, whether to tell Xie Junrui the news that she thought she had accidentally "listened" to Gu Yange, but it was Gu Yange who deliberately let her know.
After hesitating again and again, Jiang Xingyu still opened her mouth and told Xie Junrui about the matter.
Xie Junrui heard the anger just now, and instantly sat down on the small table, staring at the candle flame jumping to the ground in a daze, and asked in disbelief: "Is this ...... Is it true?"
Jiang Xingyu nodded cautiously and said, "Junrui, it doesn't matter, I believe everything will pass." ”
Xie Junrui has always been reluctant to face Gu Yange's identity and status, but now he can't help but not face it, he was stabbed to the emperor, and the emperor wanted to cut his position, but Xiao Yongye stopped him, Xie Junrui's mind is extremely complicated now. Jiang Xingyu shouted several words next to him, but Xie Junrui didn't react, and felt out the big tent like a ghost, Xie Junrui felt that he needed to "think" calmly.
"Got it, how could it be, how could it be, why would anyone know. How to force, what to do...... Who will tell me what to do. If I go back to Beijing, the emperor will definitely ask me about my sin, although I have my grandfather to support me, I don't have to worry about life and death, but what about the future future, I still have to wait for the general, how can this be. Xie Junrui was wandering outside the tent like a headless fly, and his heart had already become a mess, and he couldn't come up with a complete idea.
Suddenly, the horn outside the camp sounded, Xie Junrui's eyes lit up, and he slapped him fiercely: "What else should I do." What else to do, of course, is to make military merits, if there are military merits, the emperor will weigh the two sides, and when the time comes, if he intercedes again, there will be nothing left. ”
made up his mind, Xie Junrui ran to Xiao Yongye's tent again, and repented, saying that he wanted his husband Xiao Yongye to share his worries, how could Xiao Yongye know what kind of madness he was smoking, anyway, he just ignored it on the side.
This night's battle was particularly tragic, the two armies were dissipated at the confrontation, and the young generals who gave the order were already busy with their feet on the ground, Xiao Yongye finished writing a warrant, and when he was waiting to call the young general of the order, the young generals had already been spent by themselves.
When Xie Junrui saw Xiao Yongye's current appearance, he was secretly overjoyed and hurriedly volunteered. Xiao Yongye thought about it, this is an urgent order, and someone must send it immediately, so he had to hand it over to Xie Junrui, and asked him to go quickly, go back quickly. If it weren't for the main tent of the three armies, someone would have sat in the battle, Xiao Yongye would rather send it himself, but for now, he could only let Xie Junrui go.
Xie Junrui went with a smile, but was stopped by Jiang Xingyu on the way, it turned out that everything on the battlefield had scared this little heart out of his stomach, Xie Junrui was happy, and comforted Jiang Xingyu. About half a cup of tea later, he turned over and went to deliver the letter, but this half of the tea time had already delayed the fighter.
The east side of the army was opened by the Hui Yi people, the east wing was lost, Xie Junrui's horse had not yet reached the east wing, and the young general who came back to deliver the message had already brought the news to Xiao Yongye, Xiao Yongye asked with a sinking face: "The news I sent General Zhao has received it"
