Chapter 203: The Truth
Of course, the enemy army is not stupid, they are now retreating to the mountains, although there is no way to retreat and no food and grass, but they can't afford to spend it, after all, this is the vanguard force, if they are not annihilated in time, I don't know when the follow-up army will follow.
Therefore, they were divided into several groups to take turns attacking the mountain, not letting them have a moment of respite, wanting to annihilate them as soon as possible.
Just when Mo Qingyuan was at a loss, a soldier hurriedly ran into the cave and said breathlessly: "Pioneer! My Da Yao's reinforcements have arrived. He pointed a hand back.
Mo Qingyuan looked in the direction of the man's finger, came out of the cave and stood on a high place, only to see a large number of troops, rushing in this direction of his own, and a big flag with white characters on a blue background clearly met Mo Qingyuan's eyes, with the word Dayao written on it.
When Mo Qingyuan, Jin Yuanbao and Li Aofeng saw this scene, they couldn't help but feel happy in their hearts, it was really time for this reinforcement to come.
When the three of them saw the arrival of reinforcements, their morale immediately increased, and this was a good time to join forces with the reinforcements to flank the enemy!
And Qiu Yu suddenly turned from an advantage to a disadvantage, but now, Qiu Yu didn't have too many choices, anyway, there was not much food and grass left, and he had no way to retreat now, so he immediately ordered to fight to the death with Da Yao's army in one go.
With the help of reinforcements, the strength of Mo Qingyuan's team has become stronger, and the battle just now has consumed a lot of Qiu Yu's troops, and the current odds of victory can be said to have greatly increased.
Mo Qingyuan called the gold ingots and killed General Qiu Yu, the two of them cooperated left and right, very tacitly, Qiu Yu really couldn't parry such a fierce attack, and he was defeated again and again.
At this time, the troops on Qiu Yu's side were also beaten and there was not much left, and General Qiu Yu saw that the situation was not good, and it was difficult to save his life if he continued to fight, so he ordered a breakthrough.
Seeing this, how could Mo Qingyuan let them go, so he took advantage of the victory to pursue and chased after the few remaining deserters, and the enemy army who had lost their fighting spirit was easily killed without leaving a piece of armor, Mo Qingyuan returned to the camp with the head of General Qiu Yu.
"It's really a pleasure to kill today!" The gold ingots grinned and said to a few people in the camp, and several people laughed when they saw the appearance of the gold ingots.
Mo Qingyuan turned his head to look at the reinforcement Cao Cheng, who was the one who participated in the military election with him at the beginning, and asked curiously: "Why is it you who came to the reinforcements today?" ”
Cao Chen smiled and said to Mo Qingyuan: "Back then, the three martial arts were taken down by you, and several of us were off the list. ”
After hearing this, Mo Qingyuan nodded and said, "In today's battle, fortunately you arrived in time, otherwise our team would have been buried in the valley." ”
Listening to Mo Qingyuan's words, he shook his head and said to Mo Qingyuan with a smile: "This is a bad word, the strength of you and Qiu Yu is already much worse, not only did you hold out for so long, but you also gave Qiu Yu a heavy blow before we came, which is already very remarkable." ”
Mo Qingyuan looked at Yuan Bao and Li Aofeng beside him, and the three of them looked at each other and smiled, it was not easy for a fledgling to achieve such a record.
This war lasted for three months, because Guan Yan used his god like a god, and there were many capable veterans and recruits under his command, as a result, Qiu Yu was the first to send troops, but in the end he didn't even touch Da Yao's city gate, and was beaten back to Qiu Yu, but because Da Yao was also greatly injured, the money and people were no longer able to consume to attack Qiu Yu, so far the war has stopped, after this battle, Qiu Yu is afraid that it will not be able to slow down in a few years.
The Dayao army returned triumphantly, and Guan Yan and other generals returned to Kyoto with a mighty army to report to the emperor.
When the emperor heard the news of Da Yao's victory, he was naturally happy.
The Manchu Dynasty civil and military all praised, in this war, a group of people rose to the top, all were promoted and rewarded, Mo Qingyuan because of his outstanding military achievements, and Guan Yan recommended, the emperor took this opportunity to make Mo Qingyuan a deputy general, in charge of military power, and the three princes guarded the border together.
Mo Qingyuan received the order and began to prepare for departure.
An Xian was naturally very happy to hear the news that Mo Qingyuan was crowned a general, this is the reward that Mo Qingyuan deserves for protecting his family and defending the country with his life, and Mo Qingyuan will never become the unbeatable, treacherous and vicious general in the troubled times in the previous book.
And Mo Qingyuan was finally able to fulfill his dream of becoming a general since he was a child.
An Xian looked at the calm and mature young man in front of him, Mo Qingyuan had really grown up, An Xian felt very relieved in his heart, and slowly said: "Qingyuan, when you get to Biansai, you must take care of yourself, that place is not as good as home, and the living conditions are very difficult." ”
Mo Qingyuan looked at An Xian's worried appearance, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mother, Yuan'er will definitely take care of herself." ”
An Xian thought thoughtfully, and said to Mo Qingyuan: "It's better to ask your father to go and talk to the emperor and leave you in Kyoto." ”
Mo Qingyuan listened to An Xian's words, and knew that An Xian was very reluctant to himself, and said with a smile: "Mother, Yuan'er was born to be a general who protects his family and defends the country, and the border needs me, how can I be greedy for leisure and stay in Kyoto, you can rest assured that Yuan'er will go!" ”
An Xian nodded and said no more, although she was reluctant, she couldn't delay her child's grand ambition and future because of herself.
When Mo Chao heard that Mo Qingyuan was made a general by the emperor, and now he followed the three princes to guard the frontier, he had an inexplicable feeling of jealousy in his heart.
Immediately, an idea came to mind, he was Mo Qingyuan's biological father, if he could recognize him, with the help of Mo Qingyuan's large number of troops, he could just strengthen his own power.
In fact, the person with the greatest ambition is Mo Chao, who said it well, he is the concubine of Da Yao Kingdom, and if he doesn't say it well, he is a waste who eats soft rice, if he doesn't fight for it, Da Yao will never leave a place for himself.
The border of Dayao has a harsh climate and an extremely difficult environment, and there is uninhabited saline-alkali land for hundreds of miles, and the soldiers stationed at the border live very uncomfortable.
After experiencing a war and coming to the border with a harsh environment, Mo Qingyuan has really grown a lot, although every day is boring and boring, he still sets a goal in his heart, vowing to be a good general who protects his family and defends the country.
Due to the long and dangerous road, it was very difficult for Mo Qingyuan to communicate with his family once, and he had only communicated three letters with Mo Zhi in the past few months, and Mo Zhi and An Xian, who were in Kyoto, also remembered their son who was far away from the border all the time.
One day, Mo Qingyuan was inspecting the army, and a guard presented a letter to Mo Qingyuan, Mo Qingyuan didn't think much about it, this must be a letter from his father.
In the evening, after the curfew, Mo Qingyuan remembered that his father's letter had not been read, so he lit the lamp and read it carefully.
As Mo Qingyuan read the letter, his face became more and more ugly, and when he saw the end, Mo Qingyuan's face was full of surprise and disbelief, his hands trembled and he held the letter, and his breathing was very short.
He turned out to be the son of a courtier? And when the horse turned out to be his father's own brother, so he was not his father's biological child?
"How is that possible?!" He clenched his fists, one side didn't believe it, but on the other side he felt that Chang Yang dared to deceive himself with such a thing? Is there really something hidden?
Sleepless all night, early the next morning, Mo Qingyuan asked the third prince to return to Beijing, the third prince saw Mo Qingyuan's face was ugly, and asked him what was wrong, he only said that something happened at home, and he needed to go back immediately.
The third prince was appointed, and Mo Qingyuan set off that day and rushed back to Kyoto as quickly as possible.
An Xian was drying beef at home with two maids, these things were going to be sent to Mo Qingyuan, An Xian knew that there was a shortage of supplies at the border, and the food would definitely not be much better.
The three of them were busy working, when they heard the door being opened, and Mo Qingyuan's figure appeared in front of the three of them, An Xian looked at Mo Qingyuan, with a look of disbelief, hurry up Mo Qingyuan welcomed the door.
"Why did you come back all of a sudden, and you didn't say a word to your family, the emperor asked you to come back?" An Xian took Mo Qingyuan's hand and said in a somewhat excited tone.
Mo Qingyuan saw An Xian, who hadn't been able to see him for a long time, and his eyes were a little heavy: "Mother, I came back this time because I wanted to ask about something." ”
An Xian was puzzled, what made him rush back to Kyoto from the border in such a hurry?
"Let's wait until Daddy comes back." Mo Qingyuan said slowly.
An Xian didn't ask much, nodded, but grass grew in his heart, what is going on, it is better to ask Mo Zhi to come back earlier, so he sent someone to tell Mo Zhi about Mo Qingyuan's return.
Mo Zhi rushed back immediately after knowing about it, An Xian made a table of good dishes for Mo Qingyuan to wash the dust, at the dinner table, Mo Qingyuan frowned, and An Xian glanced at Mo Zhi.
Mo Zhi looked at Mo Qingyuan and said, "Yuan'er, what are you coming back for this time, I didn't listen to the emperor summoning you back to the palace." ”
Mo Qingyuan raised his head and said heavily, "I have a letter here that I want to show you." As he spoke, he took out the letter from his bosom.
Mo Zhi took it with a puzzled face, opened the letter, and read it carefully with An Xian, and both of them were shocked when they saw the content of the letter.
Seeing the difference in the faces of the two, Mo Qingyuan's heart sank more and more, he knew his father and mother too well, if this letter was nonsense, they would have already been in a hurry to clarify: "Dad, what is going on?" Don't hide it from me. ”
Mo Zhi's face was pale, and now that he was afraid, he couldn't hide it, after all, Mo Chao had already planned to recognize him, so he wouldn't give up easily, his face was gloomy for a long time, and he slowly said: "The horse Changyang is actually your biological father, that is, my brother, Mo Chao." ”
Mo Zhi paused, and then told Mo Qingyuan the ins and outs of the whole matter.
Mo Qingyuan's face was full of disbelief after hearing this, and he sat on the chair and didn't say anything for a long time.
Seeing Mo Qingyuan's appearance, Mo Zhi let out a deep breath and said: "Mo Chao is your biological father, if you want to recognize him, I won't stop you, I support all your choices." ”
After a long time, Mo Qingyuan spoke: "My father is only you, I don't recognize Chang Yang, my surname is Mo, Chang Yang, that ungrateful person, will never be my father." ”
