Chapter 160: Heishuiyu

The heavy tent blocked the rain from the sky, but the dense sound of the rain hitting the tent could not shield it.

Sun Chuanting sat alone on a chair in the tent, staring at the rain curtain outside the tent through the open curtains.

Behind him, two staff members in green clothes were handling military affairs.

Sun Chuanting's expression was sad, and his eyes were gloomy.

Shaanxi has not seen such heavy rain for many years.

There are only a handful of rainy days in a year, and the amount of rain that falls is obvious.

If this heavy rain had fallen on an arid land, perhaps the situation in Shaanxi would not have been so erosive......

It's a pity that the amount of rain and whether it rains or not are all days, and it is not humanly possible.

The rain came quickly, but it didn't go quickly.

The heavy rain began to fall yesterday at noon, and it has only abated a whole day now.

Yesterday, the rain seemed to be endless, pouring down from the sky.

The rain pooled into water on the flat land, eroding the road and the land, making the road and the land muddy, and every step taken on it was bound to leave deep footprints.

It is still difficult to walk on foot, let alone carry heavy loads and pass through cars and horses?

The wind and rain outside the tent weakened, Sun Chuanting remembered all kinds of things he had seen and heard along the way, and he couldn't help himself, sighed lightly, and shook his head.

After arriving in Qindi, he really understood what it meant to "expose the white bones in the wilderness, and there was no rooster crowing for thousands of miles".

After arriving in Qindi, he really understood what kind of scene it was like to have a fluttering sentence of thousands of miles of red land on the top of the recital.

Sun Chuanting closed his eyes, and he only now understood what the continuous apportionment and salary increase meant to Shaanxi.

The fact that the rogue is not extinguished and unequal is not because the soldiers who are attacking and suppressing are not effective......

This kind of suppression method is to exhaust the world's soldiers, and there is no reason to succeed.

Sun Chuanting clenched his fists, the country was in trouble, internal and external troubles, but those moths, ants and snakes in the place were still drunk and drunk......

There will be a day......

"Da-da-"

When he heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from outside the tent, Sun Chuanting had already opened his eyes, and he raised his head and followed the sound to look outside the tent.

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves sounded outside the tent of the Chinese army, and most of them were only the scouts sent to the Meridian Road to investigate by Li Yuchun before.

Soon Li Yuchun's figure appeared in the rain curtain outside the tent, and behind Li Yuchun there was a soldier wearing only a single coat.

Li Yuchun was wearing a lily coat, and the rain was kept out by the lily clothes, and the soldiers in the single clothes were already soaked all over their bodies, shivering in the rain.

The guards guarding outside the tent blocked Li Yuchun and the soldiers in front of the tent door.

"Let them in."

Sun Chuanting waved his hand and gave the order directly.

After the guards outside the tent answered, they brought Li Yuchun and the soldier in single clothes into the tent.

Eight personal soldiers entered the tent of the Chinese army first, two stood behind Sun Chuanting, and the remaining six people stood four in the tent.

Their eyes were focused on the soldier next to Li Yuchun, who was not a familiar face, but a living person, the first time they had seen him.

There are outsiders who come to see the governor, and as a personal guard, you should be cautious.

"Who is this man?"

Sun Chuanting's gaze also stayed on the soldier who was following Li Yuchun.

Li Yuchun is coming over now, mostly to report that his subordinates do not listen to the information of the Meridian Road at night.

And at this time, bringing a deep face back, most likely it is inextricably linked to the meridian road.

"Open the military gate."

Li Yuchun looked respectful, and bowed first, and then spoke.

"I didn't receive a return at night, and as expected, I went all the way into the meridian road, but there was no trace of the thief."

"But it's on the road

Encounter with this person."

Sun Chuanting's eyes moved slightly, and he looked up and down at the soldier who was wet with rain.

The sergeant knelt on the ground when he entered the tent, and although he lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head, he looked as tall as a pine and cypress.

From the moment he came in, he acted at a glance and was capable and measured.

"This person claims to be a soldier under the command of Chen Wang, a general of Hanzhong, and he has come here to deliver an extremely important military message, saying that he must present it to the governor in person."

"This person's seal and letter have been checked, and it does belong to Chen Wang's soldiers."

"Chen Wang?"

Sun Chuanting's eyebrows were finely adjusted, and a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

Shouldn't Chen Wang be besieged in Xing'an City at this time?

It was none other than the withdrawal of the siege in Xing'an, so a message was sent to inform the details of the city in Xing'an, but it was also said to be an important military situation.

The soldier kneeling raised his head slightly, glanced at Sun Chuanting, who was sitting at the top, and then lowered his head again.

Then the soldier opened his clothes and took out a letter that he had kept close to his arms.

Although the soldier was soaked, the letter in his bosom was not damaged in the slightest.

Without Sun Chuanting's orders, a personal guard had already stepped forward, took the letter from the soldier's hand, and delivered it to Sun Chuanting's hand.

Sun Chuanting frowned and opened the letter, but when he saw the first sentence, Tong Kong couldn't help but enlarge it a little.

"On the fifth day of the seventh month, the enemy army outside Hung Yen City withdrew from the siege, and the Liukou Brigade marched eastward, and its army was hungry in many infantry formations, and few fine cavalry soldiers......

"Shiquan, Xixiang, Yangxian and other places, most of the rogues have been evacuated, only a few bandits remained, according to reports, most of the enemy troops entered the Meridian Valley through Meridian Town, wanting to go north......

「…… Together with the guerrilla Zhou Yumao, he joined forces in Ziwu Town, with a total of 1,800 cavalry, and followed the trail into the valley to pursue."

"It was found that the thieves had gone north without the meridian road, and the middle road turned into the inner road of Fu Luo Road......

Sun Chuanting's mood fluctuated, and his gaze deepened.

He raised his head, looked past the people in the tent, and looked out of the tent.

As if he wanted to see through the rain curtain and through the mountains, he observed Chen Wang, who was in the depths of Fu Luo Road at this time, hanging behind the army.

"Chen Wang......"

Sun Chuanting muttered in a low voice.

At this moment, he had already completely engraved Chen Wang's name in his heart.

"Bold and careful, wise and square, no wonder Hong Heng Lao has a high opinion of this son......

Sun Chuanting was also an afterthought at this time, in the letter that Hong Chengchou gave him.

Hong Chengchou put Chen Wang with Cao Bianjiao, He Renlong, Zuo Liangyu and others at that time, and spent more pen and ink than them.

"I've received the letter, it's been hard all the way, let's go down and rest first."

Sun Chuanting put the letter on the table, and waved his hand to signal Li Yuchun, who was standing in the tent, and the soldiers who were carrying the letter to retreat.

Neither of them said much, saluted again, and then retired one after another.

Sun Chuanting's gaze lingered on the soldier's back for a few more seconds.

From the moment he came in, he had already noticed.

The soldier under Chen Wang's command was neat and neat when he walked.

His eyes were clear and clear, and he didn't have the gangsterism of many generals and soldiers.

"Qi Jun's Military Training ......"

Sun Chuanting's expression was solemn, he knew some of Chen Wang's basic information, and he had also heard that Chen Wang used Qi Jun's method of selecting and training troops.

I thought it was an exaggeration, because for hundreds of years, there was only one Qi army in the country.

It is the Zhejiang soldiers trained by Qi Jin, in fact, they cannot be called Qi troops, and there is still a gap between the two.

But from this soldier who reported the news, Sun Chuanting felt that it was completely different from ordinary battalion soldiers.

If the battalion soldiers under Chen Wang's command are all like this, then maybe it is really as Hong Chengchou said......

"Where has the artillery of the army gone?

?」

After Sun Chuanting watched Li Yuchun go away, he turned his head and asked the staff who was sitting not far from him.

The staff member who was asked did not procrastinate, and immediately got up and reported.

"The roads are muddy and difficult to navigate, our army does not have many mules and horses, the artillery is strong and heavy, and we need to worry about rain erosion, so the march speed is quite slow."

"Based on the current situation, I'm afraid it will take two days to reach the barracks."

[At present, it is the most complete and best app for listening to books, integrating 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and it supports offline reading

The rain is weakening, the clouds are gradually dissipating, and the rain is dripping.

In Fu Luo Road, a group of soldiers who broke into the army were marching with difficulty.

They crossed the most dangerous trestle bridge, and the trail was relatively safe, but the road became extremely muddy due to the rain.

The Meridian Road is paved with sand and gravel in many places, and there are specially built drainage channels, so it is difficult to form water even when it rains, and the road can be easily navigated.

But after so many years, there is still paved sand and gravel, and the drainage canal has long been blocked, and the road is covered with stagnant water.

Gao Yingxiang's face was gloomy, and he walked forward on foot under the protection of several guards.

There is no way to ride a horse on such a road, only to walk on foot step by step.

The obstacles caused by the muddy road were rapidly draining his physical strength.

Gao Yingxiang frowned, since he became the head of the battalion, he rarely had a full meal, and he never relaxed to relax and exercise.

But he was still tired, so these soldiers under his command, they were afraid that they were even more unbearable.

Gao Yingxiang looked back at the soldiers who were following behind him, and sure enough, he saw a tired look on their faces.

The soldiers who followed him all the way were exhausted, their eyes were blank, and their morale was extremely low.

The people were still exhausted, and the mules and horses were even more out of breath.

These mules and horses are afraid that they will not be able to ride immediately after exiting, so they must be slowed down first.

Gao Yingxiang turned his head back to look ahead, his heart slowly sinking downward.

Repeated changes and bad weather made the sense of danger that had already dissipated in his heart come back to his heart.

Maybe it shouldn't go any further......

Gao Yingxiang's heart was cold, he really wanted to turn back.

But the reality is that there is no turning back for him.

He had already led his troops here, and along the way, nearly a thousand soldiers had fallen due to injuries and illnesses on dangerous roads.

He used his prestige to forcibly integrate a group of elite horsemen.

The chips have been placed on the table and it is impossible to get them back......

"Whoa————

A sudden noise came from the front and interrupted Gao Yingxiang's thoughts.

Gao Yingxiang's face changed slightly, and he was about to ask.

But before he could ask a question, the answer was already in front of him.

The noise grew louder and louder, and finally he could hear it clearly.

Heishuiyu has arrived!
