Ning Yu woke up
Li Hanning had just collected the letter and belt here, and another guard came to report:
"General Li, Lord Shen Qiuchi, the defender of the Southern Regions, asks to see you."
Shen Qiuchi has been stationed in southern Xinjiang for more than ten years, and when Li Hanning left Chang'an this time, Xiao Ce also told her to consult this General Shen more about everything.
Li Hanning naturally wouldn't slack off, so he immediately spoke: "You go and invite him over." ”
But letting him come over is also a kind of neglect in itself.
So the guard received the order and was about to turn around, but Li Hanning repented and said:
"Still no, I'm going to greet this person personally."
Li Hanning walked out of the tent with the guards and walked not far away, and saw a man in silver-white armor standing there facing them, looking to be in his early thirties.
Shen Qiuchi stood there without being angry and arrogant, making his posture as tall as the pine on the mountain, and a pair of eyes as bright as cold iron under the sword eyebrows.
Shen Qiuchi saw Li Hanning coming over from a distance, she was the only female general in the Luoyang Army, so she was naturally the most recognizable person.
"I've seen General Lee."
Li Hanning's gaze fell on him without hesitation: "As early as when I was in Chang'an, I heard His Royal Highness King Ming often talk about you, and when I saw it today, it was really better to meet than to meet, and the general's demeanor was even worse than rumored." ”
She didn't hide her love for Shen Qiuchi at first sight, and her eyes were full of sincere appreciation for Shen Qiuchi:
"In fact, before leaving Chang'an this time, His Royal Highness King Ming specially told me that I am only the nominal commander of the three armies this time, and in the future, it will depend on the general's arrangement of troops against Liang Zhou's sailors on the river."
Shen Qiuchi has always been stationed far away in southern Xinjiang, and he has never seen Xiao Ce, and he was originally worried that he would be estranged from Li Hanning and them, but when he saw them today, he hated to see each other a little late:
"General Li's demeanor is one in ten thousand, and the minister is in the south, and he has also heard of the general's capture of the Huns alive Shan Yu, and the soldiers have taken Yueqi City without blood."
He naturally had some appreciation and admiration for Li Hanning in his heart, the battle they fought against the Xiongnu in the north and listened to the wind valley was really beautiful, and almost all the people in the Central Plains remembered that battle.
Li Hanning just glanced at the soldiers patrolling around him quietly, and then said to Shen Qiuchi in front of him:
"There is still a distance from where the general is stationed, and the general has worked hard all the way, so follow me into the tent and talk about it."
Shen Qiuchi followed Li Hanning into the tent, where a screen was used to separate the bed from the place where the guests were held, and the entourage in the army naturally could not drink, Li Hanning walked to the bookcase and poured Shen Qiuchi a cup of hot tea and handed it over.
Shen Qiuchi took a sip of tea and asked, "I heard about the injury of the military division a few days ago, I don't know if the injuries on the military division have been better in the past few days?" ”
Only then did Li Hanning remember that Shen Qiuchi and Ning Yu had known each other before, and they had met several years ago.
"The doctor has already seen it, the military advisor has always been in poor health, and this time it is a long-distance trip, and there are too many external injuries on his body, but I heard Meng Liang say that he should be able to wake up after a few days of resting."
Shen Qiuchi seemed to be relieved when he heard this, and reminded as if he remembered something:
"Actually, I also read the military report of Yu Cangshan that day, doesn't General Li doubt why the military division will have an accident in Yu Cangshan?"
At this point, she thought of it with Shen Qiuchi.
Li Hanning said quietly: "General Shen reminds me that I have sent someone to secretly investigate the spies in the army, and the schedule of the military division from Luoyang to the army is originally confidential, this is one of them, and the second is that Wei Xing has been living in Yanyun Eighteen Prefectures for a long time, and it is suspicious to suddenly come to the north when these two armies are fighting, and third, he is even more familiar with Yu Cangshan than me. ”
It is not a coincidence that many coincidences come together, that belt was deliberately left to her by Wei Xing, and now that she thinks about it, Wei Xing is sure that she will not be able to catch up.
That night, the guards on the shore were all carrying fire oil, and he clearly knew in advance that the bridge might be broken, how could a person who had never been to the north be so familiar with the layout of the mountains in the north?
The only answer was that he was invited to the north and sold him maps of some important places to the north.
This person is only afraid that his position is not low, and he is not an ordinary spy in the military camp.
This is also what Shen Qiuchi is worried about right now, Li Hanning knows what he is worried about when he looks at his frowning brows:
"General Shen rest assured, as long as their soldiers and horses are still in the Ten Prefectures of Yanyun, even if they have a map of the entire Central Plains, it will be useless."
As long as they can win this battle, all problems will be solved, and even if Wei Xing has a map to the north of them in his hand, it will be useless if he can't use it.
Shen Qiuchi sighed softly and said, "That's what General Li said. ”
"It's just that these days-" Li Hanning remembered Ning Yu, who hadn't woken up yet: "Let's hold our troops for the time being, and wait for the military advisor to wake up." ”
She happened to mention this, and Shen Qiuchi simply followed: "By the way, General Li, I happened to be in the army today, and I thought I would also go to see the military division." ”
Li Hanning then got up and looked up at Shen Qiuchi: "In this case, General Shen will stay in the barracks for a few days, and I will take you over." ”
*
On this side of the riverbank, Wei Xing was inspecting the barracks with Liang Zhou.
"I've seen the lord, I've seen General Liang."
Occasionally, there were soldiers passing by, and they all stopped to greet them.
The soldiers in the barracks naturally knew Liang Zhou, and as for the matter of Wei Xing, Liang Zhou said hello to the generals of each battalion when he was training soldiers and horses this morning.
Along the way, Wei Xing also seemed very satisfied with the soldiers who knew him.
"It seems that these sailors are handed over to you to practice, and they are indeed teaching the right people."
Wei Xing stopped and glanced at Liang Zhou beside him.
Liang Zhou hurriedly said: "It was His Highness who gave me such an opportunity first, and I just-"
The words are all because of Wei Xing's selection of talents, but he doesn't take any merit from himself.
"Well, the last thing this king likes to hear is for you to say these flattering words like those ministers."
Wei Xing interrupted his polite words and looked at the river from afar, where the waves were fluctuating with the breeze on the river.
"By the way, Liang Zhou, hasn't this king told you yet, that night on Yucang Mountain, it was only separated by such a stream, and I also met your opponent Li Hanning this time."
Liang Zhou stood aside respectfully and listened, listening to what he wanted to say to himself next, Wei Xing really paused and then said to himself:
"When I saw it that night, I knew that what the rumors said was true, Li Hanning is really a rare beauty, I appreciate it, if you fight, don't hurt her, if you have a chance-"
There is a chance to get her to Yanyun, and Wei Xing will also make her a general.
He likes Li Hanning, not only because of her appearance, but also because of her decisiveness to chase down the mountain that night and her caution in knowing that she can't stop in time, if it were someone else, there were very few people who could chase down the mountain at that time, and even fewer people who could endure not crossing the river.
Liang Zhou shook his head, knowing that there was no such possibility, Li Hanning and him were the same kind of people, and there was no possibility of survival and surrender if he died in battle:
"Xiao Ce treats her almost like a mountain, people like her will not betray Xiao Ce, Your Highness should die first Zhao'an her heart."
They are all generals above 10,000 people under one person in the barracks, although Liang Zhou has not met Li Hanning, but he has also heard about her personality and her past, of course he understands this.
Wei Xing remembered the glance he had across the bank that night, and sighed softly and said, "Hey, it's a pity." ”
It's a pity, people like Li Hanning and Lu Changfeng let him meet Xiao Ce first, if he hadn't seen Li Hanning, it would be fine, and he would have remembered it a little when he saw it that day.
But Wei Xing just thinks about it, if Li Hanning really surrenders one day, he will probably look down on her again.
Wei Xing was silent for a while and then glanced at Liang Zhou, if he continued to stay here, his great general would only be more restrained.
"Liang Zhou, this king is going back tomorrow, you can drag the opposite side here until the autumn and then fight the best battle, if you really can't, I hope you can hear your good news here in Yanzhou."
Wei Xing hoped that if he couldn't avoid this battle, at least he wouldn't lose to Li Hanning on the other side of the river.
Liang Zhou lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, the minister will do his best." ”
Wei Xing's gaze fell on him: "I have always been the most at ease with you. ”
The implication is not to let me down.
Liang Zhou heard it clearly in his heart.
*
Here, Ning Yu, who Li Hanning had been guarding with her clothes, finally woke up, but her face was still very bad, but at least she had recovered some sanity and was able to sit on the collapse.
The guards on the side told Ning Yu about the situation in the barracks these days, and he was relieved.
Li Hanning personally brought him a medicine bowl on the side, and Ning Yu also poured a lot of medicine when he was unconscious in the past few days, so his tent was full of the fragrance of Chinese medicine inside and out.
Li Hanning was almost getting used to the taste of such medicinal herbs.
"Rest assured, the soldiers have just boarded the ship in the past two days, and it will take a certain amount of time to get familiar with the battle on the ship, there were not so many warships in southern Xinjiang, and the new ships that General Shen ordered them to supervise before were all new ships, and it still took a certain amount of time to run in, and it was too early to leave the battle, and the most important thing was to take care of the injuries on your body."
This battle was different from the ones they had fought before, and the water war needed a certain amount of time to run in after all.
Ning Yu knew in his heart that he was just a pity that he couldn't help them catch Wei Xing that night.
"King Ming also asked you in the letter to me a few days ago, after hearing that you disappeared, he has been worried in Chang'an, if it weren't for the fact that there is something he needs to be busy with, His Royal Highness heard that you had an accident, but he can't wait to personally bring soldiers and horses to Yucang Mountain to find you, now that I know that you are awake, he can finally rest assured in the future."
