Chapter 286: Scolding
Pingqiu Pass is as quiet as ever. This is the edge of the desert, the border of the country of Shana. It should have been a place of surprise in the war, but because of Yang Xueqian's testimony, not many people would be stupid enough to beat his idea.
Therefore, when many enemy troops come to attack, they will choose to take a detour, go around to the other side of the desert and attack the sand naphthalene. However, the result was that the whole army was wiped out in the face of quicksand, so although this sand naphthalene is not a strong country, it is still stable for so long.
However, today is inevitably a little different, every morning Yang Xue Qian will personally patrol the city wall, in his opinion, the enemy may attack at any time, so he can't relax his vigilance.
And today I don't know whether to say that he is lucky or that he is unlucky, in short, it is true that the outside of the city this morning is not very quiet, but the noise is a bit excessive.
"The kings of Pingqiu, you Hu Ye have come to see you. Call out the one among you called Yang Xue Qian, yes, yes, yes, it's that big king, the little master wants to fight them alone!"
This voice is not small, so Yang Xue Qian heard it very clearly, and now he asked the soldiers patrolling the city wall: "Who is shouting outside the city?"
"General Hui, he is a foreigner, and our generation does not have such costumes as theirs, but he is obviously here to provoke, and has been scolding for a long time, did the general order to shoot arrows?" the soldier replied truthfully, and from his tone, it was not difficult to hear that Hu Yun was scolding people very badly.
"What are they scolding?" Yang Xue Qian was about to ask, when he heard the city singing.
"There are eight kings in Pingqiu City, but in fact, Xue Qian is the biggest. The fangs and claws did not dare to fight, and when they met people, they hid in their shells. ”
This Hu Yun is also a talent, according to Zhao Yulong's previous instructions, he can't just ask him to scold under the city wall. I didn't expect Hu Yun, this kid to scold, and now he even made up a nursery rhyme and sang it with these hundreds of soldiers.
And the voice is getting louder and louder, and even some children in the city hear it and learn it. And Huyun and they naturally sang happily, completely to the point of forgetting Zhao Yulong's orders.
To achieve such a point, it is estimated that only Hu Yun is alone, after all, who else will have so many crooked brains besides him. However, Zhao Yulong naturally knew this when he sent him, because this is what he wanted.
However, Hu Yun's poisonous tongue was still not comparable to Yang Xue Qian's mentality after all, seeing Hu Yun's scolding, he still didn't react, as if he didn't hear it, but just ordered the guards: "Don't care, continue to patrol." There are not many of them, and they probably just want to deceive some arrows, and don't let go of the arrows, which people can't attack the city. ”
"Yes!" After listening to Yang Xueqian's insistence, although the guard's heart was inevitably a little unhappy, what could the general do if he had ordered him like this? Now he had to hold back.
However, Hu Yun's poisonous tongue is indeed powerful, this Yang Xue Qian can bear it, but these soldiers can't bear it. If it weren't for Yang Xue Qian's order, they would really want to shoot an arrow, this grievance in their hearts!
But they had to hold back, because Huyun and they really didn't have many people, and it was absolutely impossible to attack the city, so there was no need to waste arrows, just let Huyun shout and curse outside.
But this Huyun is not an idle person, seeing that he is not successful now, he is naturally not discouraged, but continues to change his ways and scold.
To say that this Huyun is really powerful in scolding, and now he has taken these hundred or so people to scold outside the city wall for a whole morning, and there has not been a single repetition of words.
And although these soldiers said that the general had already given orders, now that they have been shouted like this for a morning, it is inevitable that the temper in their hearts will also come up. I couldn't help but shoot a few arrows down without permission.
At this time, Hu Yun seemed to have foreseen it, but before the arrow fell, he hurriedly said to the soldiers who were shouting and scolding with him: "Withdraw!"
After saying that, he ran away without looking back, and the soldiers on the city wall were just to vent their anger, and they didn't think about how many arrows they were going to shoot, so the arrows that fell were really not much, and they were all dodged.
Now that those soldiers saw that they had left, they also remembered the general's order, that is, they would not continue to shoot arrows, and looked at the figures of Hu Yun and the others farther and farther away.
It was noon, and the camp had set up a stove and was ready to eat. Although Zhao Yulong doesn't need to eat now, he can be fine, but he has been used to eating for so many years, and if he doesn't eat, he will feel twisted, so he still has a pot with Jing Ruiyang.
Because I came with sufficient preparations, there was no shortage of drinking water, but now I think that there is a shortage of water in the desert. Therefore, Zhao Yulong asked each soldier next to the stove to cook another pot of soup for drinking after the meal.
At this time, the soup had already been cooked, and they were bumping into Huyun and they were returning. At this time, Jingrui was about to take a bowl of some soup to make peace, and saw Huyun rushing to the soup.
At this time, Hu Yun was already thirsty because of a morning's scolding, and now when he sees this pot of soup, no matter how hot it is, he just picks up the pot and pours it into his mouth.
At this time, Jingrui had not yet put the spoon into the pot, and the pot was in Huyun's mouth. Hu Yun didn't care about the heat, so he swallowed the soup straight into his mouth, and when he put down the soup pot and wiped the corners of his mouth, Jing Rui stepped forward to see that the pot was empty.
Hu Yun didn't care about these things, but just said one word loudly: "Cool!"
"You drank all the original four of us in one go, and you said kindly. Anyway, how did Zhao Yulong do what he told you?" Jing Rui saw that the soup he had been boiling for half an hour was gone, so he had to smile bitterly and picked up the water bag.
"Perfectly done. Hu Yun was a little excited when he heard this.
"Then they came out, why didn't I see the pursuers?" Before Zhao Yulong could ask, Jing Rui asked again.
"That's not true, that old king is so cowardly, we scolded them all morning, and he didn't even open the city gate to face the battle. Saying that, Hu Yun snatched the water bag that Jing Rui had only drunk in his hand, and put it to his mouth and swallowed the water in it.
After the water bag was flattened, Hu Yun put down the water bag with a pleasant expression. In his words, it's just one word: "Cool!"
"Since they didn't go out of the city gate, what success is this?" Jing Rui didn't pay much attention to Hu Yun's actions, after all, he had known Hu Yun for so long, and he also understood that he had long been used to these small actions, so he regarded them as ordinary.
"That's because they shot arrows at us, you know, their general said that they weren't allowed to shoot arrows outside the city, but they shot arrows anyway, do you know what that means?"
At this time, Hu Yun said that before Jingrui could speak, Zhao Yulong, who was reading on the side, put down the book and said:
"This shows that they can't bear it anymore, so even if it is their general's order, they have to disobey it, all because of Huyun's mouth! If you don't pay attention again, not only them, I guess even Jingrui wants to pick up a spear and hit you now, and others can only drink a few sips of you, and grab water to drink after the soup." ”
The second half of this sentence is naturally a joke, and the meaning of the first half of the sentence Jing Rui understands: "In this way, even if he has no intention of sending troops, but the emotions of the soldiers going out of the city to fight are high, and he has to do this, and we can ambush him at that time?"
"No, a good general is able to manage his own soldiers, so he will never be swayed by these soldiers. And judging by his majesty, these soldiers did not dare to go out of the city even if they couldn't bear it anymore, at most they shot arrows on the city walls. However, Zhao Yulong quickly interrupted Jingrui's vision.
"Isn't this going to be a dead end again?" Hearing Zhao Yulong's words, Jing Rui couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
"War should look further, not at what is in front of you. If he can command his own soldiers, then the county guard must be able to command him. ”
"But what does this have to do with the county guard, their county guard doesn't seem to be in Pingqiu Pass anymore. To be honest, Zhao Yulong's roundabout way of speaking did make Jing Rui a little confused.
"Yes, their county guard is not in the city. But don't forget, feelings are the easiest things to spread. Right now, it's just that these soldiers can't help it, and it won't be long before those people can't help it. And they will more or less talk to people they know, you should understand what it means to pass ten or ten!"
"I think I'll guess it this time, but I'll say it anyway, wouldn't it be embarrassing if I made a mistake again. Hearing this, Jing Rui somewhat realized some doorways.
"My simple point is to get this out through the mouths of these civilians. When the whole city, and even the entire Sand Na Kingdom know, what do you think the local county guard will think?"
"It must be for him to send troops, and he will have to come out when the time comes. Speaking of this, Jing Rui and Zhao Yulong looked at each other and smiled.
"That's right! Hu Yun may have to work hard for you, and you'll have to scold these days, sooner or later, understand? After speaking, Zhao Yulong looked at Hu Yun, who was gulping down water.
To be honest, this desert does make Hu Yun feel uncomfortable, because he often talks, and there are few water elements in the aura here, so he will feel dry after talking for a while.
Now I don't know how many buckets of water I have drunk, in short, Zhao Yulong knows that if he drinks it like this from Huyun, this year's water is actually enough for him to drink for three months.
Therefore, Zhao Yulong could only pray that the news of the Sha Na City Lord would spread quickly, after all, he really couldn't afford to let Hu Yun drink so much water every day!
However, the name Huyun is really good, and it seems to Zhao Yulong that it feels the most when he pronounces it upside down-Yunhu. Yes, it is indeed not difficult to drink a lake according to the lake Yun.
And Hu Yun can barely feel his lips moist after drinking so much water now, and now that he hears Zhao Yulong's request, he is naturally a little uncomfortable: "I still want to go! Can I not go?"
"No, go now, there is no room for negotiation, unless you give me all the water you drank in. ”
"This ...... Then I'd better go!" Hearing that Zhao Yulong wanted to spit out the water, Hu Yun was naturally a little reluctant.
Now he patted the dust off his body a little, and then ran towards Pingqiu City again with a hundred soldiers.
The distance of ten miles is indeed not too far, especially for those who have reached the realm of picking stars. Therefore, I didn't feel anything along the way, and I was even a little excited.
After all, what kind of generals there are, what kind of soldiers there are, Hu Yun is now a hanger, how can the soldiers he brought out be so good?
Right now, it's the time for most citizens to take a lunch break, and this lake doesn't care so much, anyway, it's already here, no matter when he starts, he just shouts loudly.
Originally, it was also the time for the city wall to change shifts, and both teams of soldiers were on this city wall, so they heard Hu Yun tearing his throat outside the city and scolding.
Naturally, the pair of soldiers who came to take the shift were a little unclear about the situation, so they asked, "Who is making noise outside the city?"
"You don't know, they've been scolding since the morning. After a good morning, our ears were calloused. I thought they would be able to stop with an arrow. I didn't expect that it hadn't been long since they ran, and they came again. It hasn't been a good morning, and now it's good that you're on shift, because we can go back and take a nap. By the way, the general's order is not to let go of the arrows and endure it!" After saying that, the soldiers went down the city wall with a sigh of relief.
Truth be told, this was the first time they had been so eager to go back to their homes and get a good night's sleep. In the past, they all thought that being a soldier was a beautiful errand, because the general in Pingqiu Pass was very powerful, and no one rushed to attack the city.
And today, they understand what it means to be desperate to fight but can't. Yes, Huyun's shouting and scolding was so amazing that these soldiers felt that they were sorry for who they were if they didn't rush down and slap him in the face.
But now that they have been handed over, they don't have to stay on the walls anymore to suffer. However, the shift was a bit more difficult, because the afternoon was longer than the morning.
And the lake outside the city wall doesn't matter who the people on the city wall are, in short, as long as you scold here, others can hear it. Therefore he scolded unscrupulously, and this time it was even more severe than in the morning.
I don't know if it's the benefits of drinking too much water, in short, this time he not only made up more nursery rhymes, but also made poems, to be honest, it's a pity not to get fame with such eloquence as he is.
And the patience of the soldiers on the city wall is also rare, and they are indeed more calm than the soldiers in the morning. It is estimated that this is also the reason why Yang Xue Qian asked them to change shifts! In short, they were still scolded by Hu Yun, but they did not move.
So it seems that Hu Yun's tongue this afternoon is indeed a bit wasted, but Hu Yun is not discouraged, because he also knows Zhao Yulong's arrangement. So even if there are no arrows coming down in the afternoon, that's good.
Now looking at the sky, Hu Yun estimated that it was time for dinner, and he left with these soldiers again, no longer scolding.
When the soldiers on the city wall saw that Huyun had left, they felt that today's events had passed, and they would probably be able to sleep comfortably at night.
It's just that what they didn't expect was that Huyun's spirit was too good. After all, in the realm of the war dragon, it is strange that the spirit is not good, at least Hu Yun can go without sleep for a month.
Right now, the soldiers were sleeping leaning on the railings of the city walls. After all, there is nothing to do at night, and they are worried about falling down the city wall if they accidentally fall down the city wall, so it is best to sleep.
But the frenzied Hu Yun didn't plan to let them sleep, in fact, this was not Zhao Yulong's order, but Hu Yun himself couldn't sleep at night and felt bored, so he ran over again.
I saw that these soldiers were sleeping soundly on the city wall, and they heard singing in their dreams. Just as they were about to listen carefully, a murmur came into their ears, startling them to wake up immediately.
When I woke up, I found that the sound was still swirling, and after listening carefully, I remembered that it seemed to be the sound I heard during the day, but the words were changed, but the meaning remained the same.
To be honest, the spirits of these soldiers were somewhat broken. If you want to say that you can listen to them during the day, Huyun has no intention of letting them go at night. Now in the eyes of these soldiers, if they can block Hu Yun's mouth and be dealt with by military law, they are willing.
Now he got up and prepared to shoot his bow and arrow at the city, when he drew his bow to the full moon, and looked under the city wall, but there was no human figure.
Although it was night, the desert was empty, and the moonlight could still illuminate the surroundings. But when they looked down, they saw nothing, not even half a shadow.
But the sound still echoed in their ears, and it grew louder and louder to make them uncomfortable.
"It's strange, did you hear that voice, I want to hear it again. ”
"Me too, I almost went crazy after listening to it all afternoon. The sound was still ringing in my ears to this day, and I wondered if there was something wrong with my ears. After all, there was no one under the walls. ”
"yes! I'm like that, too!"
Before the man could finish speaking, all the soldiers around him answered. In their opinion, they were really driven crazy by the words of Bai Baihuyun.
However, in fact, they didn't know that it wasn't that they were crazy, but that Hu Yun would have hidden his body. Their realm is not high, and now it is night light, but it is not very good, so naturally they can't see the lake.
Therefore, Hu Yun scolded unscrupulously, not only scolding Yang Xueqian, but also scolding these soldiers.
