782 Western Expedition
"Lord!"
"Well, you're back? Great work! ”
Xu Huabiao smiled, patted Lin Nalian's shoulder, and then gave Hirai Tao a hug.
"It's not hard, this time things are much smoother than expected." Lin Nalian smiled, looking in a good mood.
Momo Hirai also has a sweet smile.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.
Xu Huabiao and others, who waited for five days in Chaisang, finally waited for Lin Nalian and Pingjing Tao.
and Kim So-eun, who came with them.
"Okay, let's not stay for a long time." Xu Huabiao smiled and glanced at Concubine Ding En, who was accompanying him next to him, "General Ding is still in a hurry to rush back to General Kong Minzhi to return to him." ”
"Lord Xu, you're just scolding me when you say this." General Ding Enfei smiled a little helplessly and shook her head, "How could I drive you away!" I wish you had some more time in Chaisang!" When Lord Quan Zhilong passed by Chaisang before, he said that if there was no Lord Xu this time, Jiangdong would probably become the second Jingzhou......"
"In those days, Kong Minzhi has guarded me like a thief." Xu Huabiao interrupted Concubine Ding En's words with a smile, "Okay, I won't embarrass you, let's get on the boat and cross the river, you go back to your life!" ”
"This ...... Then Master Xu walks slowly, there will be a period later! ”
"Hmmm! There will be a period later! Xu Huabiao smiled and waved his hand to Concubine Ding En, and then, with his own subordinates, got on the ship that had been prepared for a long time.
The ship left the shore, and Concubine Ding and the small group of soldiers she brought with her left the river.
said that they didn't come to give Xu Huabiao a "gift out of the country", but Xu Huabiao didn't believe it.
But that's not what he cares about now.
"How's your arrangement?"
Lowering the curtain of the cabin, Xu Huabiao asked Kim So-eun first.
"Don't worry, my lord, the new Jinyi Wei Yangzhou is also an old man, and there will be no problem for him to take over. The reason for the delay in these few days is mainly to give an explanation to Lord Lin Nalian. After all, Jinyiwei will still be responsible for the province in the future. ”
“…… How is it, Na Lian, do you have anything to say about this Yangzhou brocade guard? ”
"This ...... Speechless. Lin Nalian's face was a little uneasy and embarrassed.
It's really embarrassing! The high-level of Jinyiwei was actually arranged by someone to come in......
Shame on you!
"Fortunately, the master is blessed with good fortune, so that Lord Suen can change his mind and serve the master." Hirai Momo, who was next to him, interjected a sentence and came in.
“…… The relationship between you and Na Lian is getting better and better! Xu Huabiao glared at Hirai Tao, "What, when are you going to apply with me one day not to be my maid and serve Na Lian instead?" ”
"Ahh Master! I was wrong! I'm not going to say that in the future, right? Momo Hirai's face turned white all of a sudden.
"Okay, lord, don't scare Xiao Tao." Lin Nalian sighed.
"Let's talk about Wu County." Xu Huabiao brought the topic back to business.
"Everything went well. Minnie Mouse is very ruthless, it seems that in Jianye all these years, the people of the Wujun family have indeed bullied her and Lisa enough. Hirai Tao hurriedly took over the conversation to show that he was still very useful to Xu Huabiao: "Before we left, the settlements of the big families in Wu County were basically bulldozed by her, and only a few people from the small families were left to avoid Minnie Mouse because of the small industry, but since Lord Quan Zhilong went...... Come to think of it, they won't end up well. ”
"It's really enough to bully! Li Sa is the patriarch in the mountains, the king, and the clansmen want to kneel when they see her. Xu Huabiao smiled, "Wu Jun's gang can actually come up with a bad trick to use her and Park Zhenying, who are estimated to be her father's people and relatives...... Seriously, if I were Lisa, I wouldn't let Park Min Young go. ”
"Minnie did ask me if she could do something to Park Min Young." Lin Nalian answered with a smile, "I told her that if she attacked Park Min Young, even Kim Ji Ni would not be able to protect her, so she regretted giving up." ”
"Hmm...... After all, he is a barbarian, but he has a real temperament, who he hates, and his face is clearly written. ”
At this time, Zheng Endi, who was standing guard outside the cabin, ran in.
“…… Lord, aren't we going to Urin Harbor? How do you feel that you are going against the river on the river, not crossing the river! Zheng Endi's words sounded anxious.
“…… Oh, we're going to Changsha. Xu Huabiao smiled.
"Changsha? Oh! Good! Zheng Eundi ran out again.
"Changsha? Lord, what are we going to Changsha for...... Go to see the two generals Xuanyi and Miki? ”
"We have been in Jiangdong for a few months, and the second brother and Zheng Zhixun in Jingzhou have already accompanied Quan Zhaomi to Sichuan." Xu Huabiao smiled, "Jinyiwei's news." ”
"yes, I know! Ye Zhi also went along. Lord, are you going to Changsha to transfer troops in person? ”
"Only if I personally mobilize troops, it is the safest! Otherwise, if there is any communication problem in the middle...... I don't want Taeyeon to send troops from Yangyang to Gangneung...... That's a problem! ”
"Well, too, and...... Otherwise, how about we lie that the four counties of Jingnan were persuaded to surrender by Yizhi? Lin Nalian came up with an idea.
"It's not impossible. I'll have to arrange it myself anyway. Otherwise, no one would dare to agree to this kind of thing. ”
"That's it! Actually, I miss General Yuqi a little bit. Lin Nalian smiled, "I just went to Changsha to see her." ”
"Hmm."
“…… Lord Xu. Kim So-eun, who had been silent on the side, suddenly interjected, "You guys...... Don't you discuss the matter of Li Xiuman's possible use of troops against Lujiang? ”
"Li Xiuman can't fight for a while." Lin Nalian smiled, "You haven't been to the Central Plains, it's not clear, if you've seen Li Xiuman...... understands that all he wants now is to stabilize his country in the Northern Central Plains. What Yangzhou Jingzhou Yizhou ...... Even in Liangzhou, he doesn't care. ”
"Is that so......"
"But I guess Li Xiuman may still arrange someone to fight Lujiang." Xu Huabiao touched his chin and said, "When necessary." ”
“…… Necessary? What is necessary? ”
"For example...... When he needed military merit. Xu Huabiao smiled.
Bad laugh.
Lin Nalian was stunned for a moment, and then laughed too.
"Yes, if he still wants to increase his title, then he must make more military merits!"
"Knighthood again?" Kim So-eun, who was on the side, still didn't understand, and then suddenly, "The two adults are saying that Li Xiuman still wants to ...... Crowned king? ”
"Is Li Xiuman unworthy?" Xu Huabiao asked Kim So-eun with a smile.
"This, a different surname is not a king...... Other than that, it's a match. Kim So-eun thought for a moment and nodded.
"Isn't that it?" Xu Huabiao shook his head with a smile.
“…… I see, Xia Guan understood. Kim So-eun was stunned.
……
Going up the river is actually much slower than riding a horse from land.
From Chaisang to Changsha, on the river, Xu Huabiao swayed for more than half a month.
For Xu Huabiao and Lin Nalian, this is nothing, and besides, taking a boat is better than riding a horse.
But that's not the case for some people.
In the past twenty days, three northerners, named Iminami, Momo Hirai and Sakura Miyawaki, vomited all their bile......
Seasickness!!
But fortunately, before they fell completely ill, the ship docked near Changsha.
After that, the three girls who finally returned to the land hugged their horses and wept bitterly......
However, after sighing with emotion, they did not listen to Xu Huabiao's suggestion and stayed in the port, but still dragged their bodies that were about to collapse, and followed Xu Huabiao to Changsha City.
In Changsha, Xu Huabiao did not stay for long.
After chatting with Xu Shuzhi for a while, and also told Park Zhiyin about the current city defense of Changsha, and the very "business" things that might require her to go to Jiangling to help guard the town, Xu Huabiao directly took Wu Xuanyi, Meng Meiqi, and Song Yuqi, who instantly turned back into a little girl after seeing the two sisters, and the Jingnan mobile force that reached 20,000 after reorganization, went to Jiangling together.
In the blink of an eye, a month, the weather began to get warmer, and Xu Huabiao finally took this army to Xiaoling Port.
Finally here, Xu Huabiao met the nominal commander of this army that is now declared to the outside world, Wuling Taishou Li Huili.
"Lord Xu, is this really appropriate? I...... Actually, I can follow you! ”
"It's just to borrow your name, this army is actually under the command of Meng Meiqi and Wu Xuanyi. You...... Well, it's good to be a theoretical manager. ”
"Theoretical ......"
"That can't be helped! Mei Qi and Xuan Yi are both from Luoyang, and if they were the commanders, this army would seem a bit unknown. You are different, the four counties of Jingnan surrendered to Park Zhenying, and you are the current Taishou of Wuling in the four counties of Jingnan...... Well, no matter how you look at it, it's all reasonable. ”
"Then I can follow this army......"
"This time I went to Shuzhong, God knows how long it will take. Don't you want this Wuling County? ”
"Now Wuling's side is mainly in charge of Li Najiong, and I don't usually take care of things......"
"Then you can't go! If you go on this for a year or two, you will never come back. I can arrange a place for you in Shuzhong, but in that case, it will be difficult for you to see Pu Suzhen and Fang Minya again! ”
"This ......" Li Huili looked helpless.
She also knew that everything she said was in vain, and Xu Huabiao had already made up her mind to let her be the coach who went to Jiangling to support.
It's wiser to be obedient yourself.
"Lady Whaley, actually, we envy you!" Meng Meiqi, who was next to her, had a very sincere smile on her face, "I have been with the lord for so many years, and I have never been a coach...... How wonderful! ”
"What, unbalanced?" Xu Huabiao glanced at Meng Meiqi.
Ever since this girl asked herself to help her develop the source of her strength, she had become more and more casual in her speech......
"Actually, it's a little bit." Meng Meiqi nodded.
"Then this time I entered Sichuan, and I will give you all the way and let you be the main general, okay?"
"Am I not going to hide? Otherwise, it will cause trouble for you, lord......" Meng Meiqi shook her head, "No need! There's still a chance in the future, right? ”
"Hmm...... Then why don't you change your name? ”
“…… Change your name? This name was given to me by my stepfather......"
"It's just a code name, I used to call Xu Yuanzhi! You...... Well, to put it simply, how about calling it a mountain branch? ”
"Yamazhi?" Meng Meiqi was stunned for a moment, and then, speechless: "Isn't it just a Qi character to be taken apart?" Lord, you help people come up with names like this? Or are you bullying me for being illiterate? ”
"Let's talk about this later! My lord, I think we should cross the river first? On the other side, it seems that General Li Xuanmei is arranging troops on the shore! What the hell does she mean? On the side, Lin Nalian urged Xu Huabiao, who had started chatting.
"What else can it mean! You can't trust us. Xu Huabiao shook his head helplessly, "Let's go, let's see, whether she still wants us to care." ”
"Hmmm......"
