1. The spring is still warm in the end Chapter 53 Zhang Han visits

It's Chinese New Year's Eve, and today I made an appointment with the princess for the evening.

Zhao Yingqi was still a little excited when he thought about it.

In his previous life, he had never had the experience of spending the New Year with the girl he liked, strictly speaking, the princess should be his first love.

Although he had someone he liked in his previous life, he was ruthless when he fell into the flowers.

I didn't expect to travel to such a world to solve personal problems that I couldn't solve in my previous life.

The appointment to meet the princess was in the middle of the day, and the nights were long in winter, and it was basically almost dark in the middle of the day, so I specially chose the afternoon when it was not yet dark.

Although Zhao Yingqi was quite indifferent on the face, he was actually very concerned about this date.

In the morning, he ordered Zhao Tong to take a bath in water, and changed into a brand-new riding uniform, and today he will ride out of the city with the princess.

When Zhao Tong was waiting for Zhao Yingqi to comb his hair, a greeting came from outside: "Zhao Yingqi is here?" ”

It was Zhang Han's voice.

Just as he was about to let Zhao Tong go out and call Zhang Han in, who knew that Ding Feng would greet him first.

Of course, this greeting is not that greeting.

The two almost fought, but fortunately, Zhang Han is also a dignified top armor master, so naturally he will not suffer, but Ding Feng is quite aggrieved, and Zhou Guo has a head armor master wherever he goes.

After Zhao Tong called Zhang Han in, Zhang Han found that Zhao Yingqi was still combing his hair.

"Brother Zhao, do you use such fine hair for a big man?" Zhang Han came in and put the gifts on the table, sat down and joked to Zhao Yingqi.

Zhao Yingqi originally wanted to say that such long hair would become a bird's nest if it was not taken care of, but when the words came to his mouth, he became: "I never took care of things like this in the past, I just left it alone, this is not a teacher, you must always pay attention to your appearance." ”

"Pull it down, you don't know it, you made an appointment with Princess Yongle to play to dress like this, right?"

"What is dressing, how do you know?"

"Why don't you know, the whole capital knows, from today to the tenth day of the first month, there is no curfew, and the 16th guard of the forbidden army is responsible for maintaining public order and stability in the Tongying Mansion, and I said early this morning when Lao Li arranged to be on duty, His Majesty's precious daughter snatched his baby son-in-law away..."

Zhao Yingqi, who had already combed his hair, stood up with a wry smile, walked to the table and sat opposite Zhang Han.

"Brother is here again in Kandashan, how can General Li be so unorthodox."

"Hmph, that old man, it's just so shapeless." Zhao Tong, who poured a cup of tea for Zhao Yingqi, also spoke.

I have to say that Zhao Tong may still have some resentment about Li Yuanbai's opening on her arm.

"Hey, Miss Zhao, no matter how I am, I'm also a guest, right? Why don't you pour me a cup of tea? Zhang Han saw Zhao Tong, who sat down directly after pouring tea for Zhao Yingqi, and couldn't help but feel a little unbalanced.

"Then there is water and tea, you have hands and feet, you can't just pour it yourself." Zhao Tong didn't even glance at Zhang Han, but after sitting down, he was still helping Zhao Yingqi smooth the wrinkles of his clothes.

"Yes, you're a great old man, I can't afford to mess with you." Zhang Han poured a cup of tea by himself, and when he came back, he asked Zhao Yingqi with a whisper: "I said brother, you are really with the princess..."

Let's just say it, the two eyes are still blinking.

"No, it's just getting along." Zhao Yingqi hurriedly changed the topic: "What about Brother Wang Lin and Brother Huangfu?" Why didn't the two of them come? ”

"After you left, Lao Li and His Second Highness only took three days to occupy the two counties of Jia and Nei, and the soldiers pointed directly at Guangtong County, and Shuo Guo remembered to ask for peace, and it could have been continued, but this is not His Majesty's birthday, so they came back first, Wang Lin and Huangfu Qin were ordered to garrison in Jia and Nei counties." Zhang Han took a sip of tea.

"The younger brother has already told them when he was in Neixian that they should negotiate as soon as possible, but the old emperor of Shuoguo is deaf, and he has to lose to ask for peace, and you want to come to the conditions are not a lot, right?"

"Hehe, winning is called negotiation, losing is called peace, the old man of Shuo Guoguan has suffered so much loss at the hands of our Zhou Guo, but he doesn't remember to eat or not, and he can't complain."

After finishing speaking, he whispered to Zhao Yingqi: "This time it's a lion's big mouth, and the second prince also asked for five thousand taels of gold for the elder brother." ”

"Do you really want it? The younger brother was just talking about it at the beginning. Although Zhao Yingqi said so, his face was very honest and his eyebrows danced, and everyone was happy if he was rich.

"Hey, if you get cheap and sell well, it's really you, brother, otherwise you can change someone else to negotiate conditions with our Da Zhou, the 16 guards and forbidden troops are nearly 500,000 elite cavalry, and the four major royal guards plus the garrison forces in various places, which one dares to negotiate terms with my Da Zhou."

"Then who let you be caught by my husband?" Zhao Tong's words almost choked Zhang Handing.

"Why doesn't Miss Zhao open the pot and mention the pot, Zhang's martial arts are not proficient, but our Da Zhou is really not a habit of being threatened, isn't this from the old man of Shuo Guoguan who even asked for the profit."

Zhao Yingqi just watched the two of them choke at each other.

At noon, Zhang Han had a light meal, and then made an appointment to drink at another time.

Before leaving, Zhang Han invited Zhao Yingqi to go to the birthday banquet of the emperor of Zhou on the eighth day of the first lunar month.

Zhao Yingqi agreed.

...

Dong Xiangcai only served as a grain transport officer for two months, and he ushered in his first opportunity to serve the country.

Han Jie, a veteran general of the Zhou State, led an army of 60,000 to attack the Jin State.

Jin Guo quickly organized 80,000 troops to defend against the enemy on the Western Front, and Dong Xiang, as a grain transport officer, received the task as soon as possible.

15,000 stone of grain and grass were transported to Xuncheng County on the northwest border of the Jin Kingdom, and they must arrive within seven days.

Dong Xiang led more than 2,000 soldiers and 1,500 people under his command to set off from Connecticut.

More than 1,000 grain trucks stretched his team nearly four miles long.

Because of the heavy rain some time ago, the road in the northwest of Jin Country was also very difficult to walk, and the seven days were tight for Dong Xiang.

I had to speed up, but the inevitable distance between the front and back of the grain team was even greater.

When marching, it is taboo to stretch the line too long.

However, when Dong Xiang first entered the army, he was not very clear about these things.

Sure enough, something happened.

The Zhou army was famous for its cavalry, and the soldiers were strong, and the Jin army could only defend the city, and did not dare to attack the Zhou army in the field.

When he was still more than a hundred miles away from Xuncheng County, he encountered the scouts of the Zhou army.

Dong Xiang was still young and had very little experience in battle, so he ordered to speed up again.

Before the grain team could go out of ten miles, it was intercepted by the cavalry of the 1,000 Zhou army, which was divided into three teams, and was constantly interspersed and divided between the grain teams of the Jin army, which was five or six miles long.

Dong Xiang's men were simply unable to organize an effective counterattack.

Seeing the combat effectiveness of the Zhou army with his own eyes, Dong Xiang didn't know how to react for a while, and he couldn't even do the least to gather his subordinates.

At this time, a Zhou army Sima saw Dong Xiang's helmet bright and bright, obviously an officer, and rushed directly towards Dong Xiang.

Fortunately, although Dong Xiang is not good at war, his martial arts are okay, and after a fight, he beheaded Zhou Jun Sima under his horse.

Before Dong Xiang could feel a trace of joy, the officer here was killed, which attracted the attention of the main force of the Zhou army.

The two hundred cavalry of the Zhou Army directly turned around and rushed towards Dong Xiang, and there were already nearly three hundred Jin Army soldiers close to Dong Xiang by his side.

Dong Xiang has subordinates around him, and he also has some confidence, and as soon as his head is hot, he will lead his subordinates to hedge against Zhou Jun.

Although his subordinate Sima continued to dissuade and wanted Dong Xiang to gather his subordinates and retreat to Xuncheng County quickly, Dong Xiang was carried away by his small victory just now.

After that, Dong Xiang rushed forward with a 300 gold army, and then Dong Xiang's 300 gold army was defeated.

With just one charge, the two hundred cavalry of the Zhou army rushed the three hundred Jin troops around Dong Xiang.

The soldiers around Dong Xiang kept falling, and Dong Xiang's heart was finally filled with fear in his heart.

Only seven or eight soldiers of the Jin Army with horses rushed to Xuncheng County.

When I arrived in Xuncheng County, I found that the 20,000 Zhou troops had surrounded Xuncheng County, and a small county town, but the three-zhang high city wall, could not stop the attack of the Zhou army at all.

Dong Xiang watched the Zhou army attack, the Zhou army opened the city gate, the Zhou army rushed in, came out from the city gate on the other side, turned the horse's head and continued to rush in, back and forth less than three times, the sound of fighting in Xuncheng County became sparse.

After that, it was very simple, Dong Xiang continued to escape, and in the end he was the only one left.

The scouts of the Zhou army were densely scattered within a radius of a hundred miles, and Dong Xiang could not return to the Jin Kingdom eastward at all, because the further he went, the denser the scouts of the Zhou army became.

I had to go west.

Dong Xiang took off his Jin army armor, pulled out a set of soldiers' military uniforms left over from the Zhou army on a battlefield, put them on himself, and continued to flee westward, hoping to return to the Jin country with a blank look.

However, Dong Xiang's plan did not succeed, and the third prince of Zhou Guo, as the deputy marshal, led 20,000 rear troops to press the rear of the veteran Han Jie.

Dong Xiang was caught.

Because the armor on his body is the scout chief under Han Jie's account, according to the order of Han Jie's report, he should conduct reconnaissance operations on the front line.

Now it has appeared in the rear army.

Deserter!

The punishment for deserters was simple.

Behead!

A governor Sima took a few military soldiers with white stripes on their armor and pressed Dong Xiang to the third prince's tent.

The third prince asked Dong Xiang's name, and Dong Xiang didn't say anything, just lowered his head and knelt there in a daze.

Seeing this, Governor Sima directly ordered to be escorted down to the marching law.

But the third prince shouted to stop.

"If the identity has not been verified, how can the execution be carried out?"

The third prince was still a very ordinary set of dark red Zhou army armor at that time, and Dong Xiang didn't know that this was the third prince of the Zhou State.

got up and walked to Dong Xiang's side, looking at the Zhou Jun armor on Dong Xiang's body, which was densely covered with arrow marks and knife marks, covered with dust and blood.

"Look at your appearance, you have also gone through a hard battle, although I don't know why you became a deserter, but I feel that since you have done your best for my Great Zhou, you will not be guilty of death."

Dong Xiang was heavily reprimanded and demoted to an auxiliary soldier.

Lying in a small tent with a leaky wind, a military marquis walked in, threw down a set of armor, and said: "The three princes have an order, Dong Xiang is the spirit king's guard, and the three princes will enter Xuncheng County to wear a crime to watch the aftermath." ”

Dong Xiang finally arrived at his original destination, Xuncheng County.

But in the identity of a Zhou Jun.
