Chapter 16: Yangguan Song (1)

On the sixth day of the first month of March, the auspicious god should tend, stagecoach, the queen of heaven, Tiancang, and not will.

It is advisable to travel, pray for blessings, open lights, and sacrifice.

Yang Shao, the regent of the Ming Dynasty, personally marched, led the people of the left military camp to pull out Huaiyin, and will first meet with the front and rear right armies that have been stationed outside the city, and then start a desperate confrontation with the Yongchao Dynasty and Tianfeng and the Yongcang vassal states.

Defend the river must defend Huai, Xuzhou line has fallen into the hands of the Ming army before, and Huainan, Anqing into a mutual move, and finally become a corner of the momentum, Huaiyin by the enemy's place, precarious, will be desperate to do the battle of the trapped beast. At the same time, a small group of men and horses that had been stable after the war in Xuzhou were also ready to go, and the two armies gathered together at the Caofu Wall, twenty miles outside Huainan City, waiting for their own departures.

Gu Yufu carried a burden, wore a dark red Yanshan robe, and stood in the team rushing to Xuzhou with a sword.

The sand dust was trampled by the war horse and smoked, yesterday in the camp outside the city, Zhao Yunqing personally took her to visit the leader of the Yanshan Guard who went to Xuzhou this time, and commanded Zhu Lanying. Zhao Yunqing said that she was an old neighbor of a friend of his, who came to Huainan to take refuge and just wanted to find an errand in Yanshanwei.

Yan Shanwei is a woman, Zhu is tall and big, and his facial features are rough and rough on his face full of wind and frost. She looked at Yu Fu first, touched her arm and asked if she could do kung fu, and asked if she was good at cooking rice and sewing to take care of patients. In the end, he held her hand and asked her how brave she was, and if she dared to go to Xuzhou.

"In troubled times, benevolence and righteousness do not give in, do not seek wealth and nobility, but seek to be worthy of it." Gu Yufu stood up straight, and answered firmly and calmly.

Zhu Lanying was very surprised, patted her shoulder and called a good girl, and Zhao Yunqing was the guarantor, and there was no doubt that he should come down.

Yu Fu was full of joy, and as soon as she respectfully thanked Zhu Lanying from other sergeants, Zhao Yunqing couldn't wait, and urged her to go back early and come back tomorrow morning.

Zhu Lanying's vicissitudes of life had a smile on her face: "I'm going to leave tomorrow, why don't you stay in the camp?" ”

Zhao Yunqing chuckled in her heart, and hurriedly waved her hand: "Her husband is also a member of our army, and she has been instructed to separate tomorrow, and she must go back tonight." ”

Zhu Lanying laughed and patted Yu Fu's shoulder: "At the moment of the military disaster, the eldest husband should take Wu Hook and kill Jinling with one horse, you are a very good girl, but how did you marry an idiot with a long love affair." ”

Zhao Yunqing held back a smile and worked very hard, but it was inconvenient to pierce it, and before leaving, he repeatedly told Zhu Yan that he was entrusted by others and asked her to take more care of Yufu in Xuzhou.

The army was so large that it stretched for miles with no end in sight. The guns and halberds were like a forest, and the 100,000 soldiers stood silently in the morning breeze, solemn and solemn, not moving like a mountain, only a few neighing horses were heard from time to time.

Yang Shao was dressed in military uniform, white robe and silver armor, riding a black horse, in the main formation, standing at the forefront of the team. His thin lips were pursed, his expression was serious, and he was indescribably heroic and mighty, which was similar to the usual way of laughing and playing with Yufu.

The generals of the fish-scale steel armor gathered behind him, shining in the sun, and there were countless Ming banners with red stripes on a black background in the wind, on which the word "Yang" was written vigorously and powerfully.

After a while, a horse with a flame flag came from a distance, and walked to the place where Yang Shao was shot twice, and the black-clothed scout turned over and jumped off his horse and ran to the front of the army, kneeling on one knee and saying loudly: "Qiqi Regent, there is no danger ahead, please give the prince the order to send troops." ”

A snare drum suddenly sounded, more and more urgent, denser and denser, and the sergeants behind him shouted together: "Gale! Gale! Gale! ”

Yang Shao held the Longquan Sword in his hand, raised it above his head, and the prohibition stopped, and the silence suddenly returned to him behind him, and no one said a word.

He stretched out his hand and slowly pulled out the blade, pointed his sword forward, his expression was solemn, and his deep voice sounded loudly in the silence:

"Burn my remnants, without hesitation, shatter my bones, and don't turn around. Kill the sinful Yong, return the life, reopen the sky, but I am bright! ”

"Kill the sinful Yong, return the life, reopen the sky, but I am the only one!" When the army was neutral, the sound shook for ten miles, and the shouting slogans sounded like a tsunami in the mountains. Accompanied by a burst of Shen Xiong's marching horn, the banner moved in the wind, and the army slowly pulled out.

Yu Fu had never seen such a grand and exciting scene, and she only felt that her heart was boiling, and the pride of not regretting the life and death of the Li people rose from her chest, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

She watched Yang Shao ride away slowly, and thousands of parting sorrows surged in her heart, and she couldn't help but moisten her eyes and sour the tip of her nose.

Suddenly, she saw Yang Shao also turn her head, look back in the direction where she was, and find her alone in the sea of thousands of people.

His eyes met and stared deeply, his lips twitched, and he clenched his right hand into a fist and tapped twice on the atrium of his left chest before turning his head and leaving.

Only the two of them knew that in that place, there was a small sachet she made for him more than ten years ago.

She had thought he had lost it, and it wasn't until she wiped the armor for him last night that she discovered the secret.

Under the shiny armor, the rough needle and thread sewed the small mandarin duck sachet to the place of the heart, and the fabric had been worn to the ground, and it had been there for many years at a glance.

Yu Fu was shocked when she saw it, and asked him with it, but Yang Shao's ears were red, and she whispered to her for a long time that in the past ten years, every time she goes out to die and live, things are in people, things are destroyed and people die, and he can only feel at ease when he takes it with him.

Thinking back to the good old times when she was still by his side, with the long-cherished wish of meeting her again one day, can he support his faith and let him continue to fight bloodily in the darkness of despair.

Yu Fu didn't wait for him to finish, she hugged him and tears rained down, Yang Shao hurriedly hugged her in her arms and shook gently and coaxed in a low voice. He told her that he was not very afraid of death at that time, and that he was afraid that he would go from city to city, but he still couldn't find her.

But now, he doesn't have to be afraid.

"You and I, since we can be separated and reunited, and finally get married, even God can't bear to let us separate."

He carried her to the bed, bowed his head and offered a long kiss, inseparable and bone-wrenching.

"This time, I will spare my life and not hurt at all. As soon as I win, I'll go to Xuzhou to find you immediately, okay? ”

"Okay."

"I don't want spies to follow you, so you'll have to write to me often. Xu Huai and Huai have their own messengers to and fro, if you are afraid of handing it to me directly and disturbing you to do what you want to do, you can send it to Zhao Yunqing, and he will forward it to me as soon as he receives it, okay? ”

"Okay."

"I will never forget you, and I will write to you whenever I have the chance. You don't want to be tired, you don't get hurt, you don't take risks, okay? ”

"Okay."

"Yufu, my wife."

Gu Yufu looked at Yang Shao's departing back, recalling the night before parting, but holding her head high but letting herself cry.

When the back was so far away that he could no longer see it, he finally didn't turn his head and followed Yanshan Wei and set foot on the road to the north.

From Huainan to Xuzhou, you have to go north to cross the Huai River, and then enter the hills from Suzhou, and enter the city along the closed mountains.

The further north you go, the more frightening the devastation left behind by the war. Originally, after moving to Anqing, Yu Fu was asked by her father and brother to go out very little, and when Anqing City was broken, she kept her mother at home, so she didn't witness too many front-line battles.

She once thought that a month in prison was already dark, but now after seeing the situation along the way, she realized that compared to the hellish battlefield, it is difficult to be imprisoned, but Erer.

What's more, she also met Brother Shao again and married him again.

It is very fortunate that this beloved person in the world has been entangled by fate for many years, and he can still keep his original intention unchanged.

There are hundreds of people in total, in addition to more than 100 people from Yanshanwei, there are also convoys of grain and grass, as well as all kinds of requisitioned miscellaneous labors. Because of the heavy load, it is not fast.

Yanshanwei are all women, among which there are many heroic young girls, and there is a little girl named Tan Yuru who is camped in the same tent, although she is six years younger than Yufu, but she entered Yanshanwei two years ago.

The small jacket is paired with a short coat, a red short beard is tied around the waist, Yuru has a baby face, and her temperament is also lively. After chatting, the two found that they had worshiped the Emei female Taoist to learn martial arts, and they became more close to each other, eating and living together all the way, and taking care of each other.

The road was rough and in a hurry, and Yufu had never walked such a long distance before.

As soon as she reached the afternoon of the third day, she gradually felt the pain in her feet with every step. She endured until the night when the camp was set up, and when everyone was eating, she quietly went back to the camp first, took off her shoes and socks to take a look, only to find that there were many blisters on her swollen feet.

When Tan Yuru opened the door of the tent and came in, she saw Gu Yufu holding a pair of feet, frowning and looking left and right, and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Isn't there a blister?" Sister Yufu, at first glance, you are the daughter of the boudoir who has never been out, and this water bubble has to be prugged to get better quickly. I didn't understand it when I first entered Yanshanwei, let me teach you. ”

"It's really hard." Yu Fu's face turned red, and after relieving her burden, she took out a silver needle and was about to do it, Tan Yuru hurriedly grabbed it, first took it to the fire and roasted it carefully, and then taught her how to deal with it.

The things in the baggage were spread out on the ground, and in addition to clothes, there were many bottles and cans, all of which were the wound medicine that Yang Shaofei had sorted out for her before leaving, which came in handy at this time.

"It's hard to go to Xuzhou here, it's definitely not what you could have imagined before," when he said this, Yang Shaozheng personally picked out the ointment and put it in the package, his tightly locked sad brows, like a chattering old man, "I'm really... Hey..."

He was distressed, and she didn't understand his good intentions at that time.

The next day, the pain in her foot was greatly reduced, and she still went on the road with the team.

The sky was overcast, and cirrus clouds like fish scales were low in the mountains.

During the lunch break, Tan Yuru still didn't forget to take care of a few words.

"Is Sister Gu better?"

Yu Fu was breaking the nest in his hand, nodding and showing a shallow smile; "Thanks to you for teaching me, it works."

"It's good to work, but..."Tan Yuru grinned and took a bite of the cake, leaning her head sideways and elongating her tone, "Sister Yufu, I saw it yesterday, you have a half-embroidered sachet in your baggage, what's the matter, it's for your lover?" ”
