Chapter 314: Quarrel (Two Chapters and a Half in One)

"Look at the last two pages."

Huo Yunqian paced to a position where he could see the city gate, stood by the window and said.

When Jia Lai heard this, when Huo Yunqian didn't notice, he secretly glanced at Lu Yan first, but Lu Yan didn't look at him at all, and kept staring at the wall with his eyes ahead.

This man is really ...... Women have become generals, and they are more serious than them all the year round, and there are many times when they compare these male generals with each other, which seems to be a little naΓ―ve.

And Jia Lai looked at Lu Yan and wanted to complain with his eyes:

If he's not mistaken, this letter should have been addressed to him, right? He can not be the first to see. But seven pages of letterhead, what's the matter with the general only letting him read two pages?

Jia Lai stepped forward with his waist bent, cleared his throat, couldn't help but continue to want to complain about the general's words, and took the lead in picking up Xu Tianxin's stack of letters.

Jia Lai thought to himself: I have to turn the page, which is the last two pages.

After pulling it out, at first, Jia Lai's expression looked very relaxed, but in the blink of an eye, he just saw the veteran standing up straight with the letter in his hand, and couldn't help but straighten his chest and stomach, with a serious expression.

After reading it, Jia Lai handed it to the nearest general next to him without saying a word.

This is a general of the former Zhenbei Army, and now under Huo Yunqian.

was annoyed by the expressions of the general and the general, and took the two pages with some nervousness.

He listened to his subordinates, isn't this what the girl who can play suona presented here? Why is the atmosphere like a petition from all peoples?

He was about to look, when a shadow suddenly appeared in front of him, and Lu Yan stretched out his hand towards him and hooked his fingers.

Regarding the official ranks of the generals present, although Lu Yan is at the same level as this person, but Lu Yan has an extra title, then she has to look at it third.

The general who was about to read the letter looked up at Lu Yan and thought: Okay, okay, give it to you, no matter whether the official rank is equal or not, who will give him the surname Fu.

And Lu Yan took the letter paper and looked at it three lines first, her first reaction was the word "Tian Xin" of her family, it was better to write it with charcoal, it was difficult for the general to read seven pages seriously.

It's definitely not a pleasure.

When Lu Yan saw those words of salute, she had no expression on her face, but she had already made a decision in her heart to increase her training from tomorrow. Trained until the best soldiers hate her, it is just right.

As for General Fu, who had intercepted the letter before, he thought that the smiles on the faces of several other generals of the former Zhenbei Army disappeared after reading it.

General Fu didn't know about others, and after reading the few words written by the girl who played suona, his first reaction was ashamed.

He didn't want to judge the rights and wrongs of his Bole, his mentor, his main general, and the last late general.

It can only be said that in that battle many years ago, the weather was unfavorable, and the people were not harmonious, resulting in 50,000 people and 80,000 casualties among the regular soldiers.

From time to time, the first time I noticed the movement of the enemy was in the autumn.

Presumably, the palace is still holding a festival to the heavens.

General Yan, the former general of Zhenbei, asked the imperial court for help.

Because the imperial court has always asked the north to save military salaries, there are less than 30,000 soldiers.

Unlike General Huo, who came to the Northland this time, he is a military and political one. Everyone guessed that otherwise, the Huo family and those old ministers in the court would not support the opening of the city, and they would still be spitting at each other.

And how could General Yan, the general of Zhenbei at that time, have this confidence, and the military food and salary were controlled by the imperial court, even if General Yan wanted to have more troops, he couldn't do it, and there was not so much money to raise troops in the north.

So when I heard that the enemy was coming, my first reaction was to take two steps.

One step is to immediately requisition the people, in case of a war, logistical supplies, and a shortage of soldiers.

At that time, I really didn't expect military service on the battlefield.

General Fu remembered that when he first saw those military soldiers, many of the people who were requisitioned were poor at home, who could not eat enough all the year round, and who could not lift their swords and knives, so how could they kill the enemy.

It is better to train as soon as possible how to logistically replenish.

The second step is to ask the imperial court for help.

It was General Huo's brother who rushed to the aid back then, and now Grandpa Huo, who rushed to the north with 20,000 cavalry.

General Fu remembered that Huo Yunqian, who was in front of him, also came with him, but it was not like he was fledgling now.

Huo Yunqian also made a mistake here, and was driven back in advance by his brother.

But from the autumn until the New Year, there was no movement of the enemy army, as if the battle was not fought, as if their news was wrong.

The Nine Emperors of Beijing came, and came to see the reinforcements with the will of the palace, and the military service was also levied, and the military salary was burned every day. Urging the reinforcements to withdraw without starting a war, and the military service will be returned, so as not to have to spend food to support it, and the Nine Emperors are here to supervise the army.

If General Fu only dares to complain in his heart, to put it bluntly, he is small-minded today, and there are thousands of tricks in the world, and their emperor accounts for at least half of them.

I was afraid that Grandpa Huo and General Yan Lao would have some conspiracy with the two generals with heavy troops, and made a false impression that the enemy army was coming.

In this way, under the supervision of the Nine Emperor Princes, they have been tugging until the Chinese New Year, and in the end, the holy order cannot be violated, and Grandpa Huo had to order the withdrawal of more than half of the Huo family's army first.

At that time, there must have been a palace banquet in the palace again.

On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, the son of General Yan got married.

Although everyone was always worried about the start of the war, the generals at least had to go to the wedding banquet hastily.

And it was even Grandpa Huo who appreciated the light, when the enemy infantry, which was only less than 10,000 people, suddenly rushed down from the North Ridge of the dense forest, the Nine Emperors were eager to make meritorious contributions, and in order to trample on the names of Grandpa Huo and General Yan's god of war, they wanted to become famous in a battle, and they were stunned to suppress the outstanding subordinates they left behind and not let them send the letter.

And because there was no military talisman to move General Yan and Grandpa Huo's generals, they actually made a stupid move to call the 20,000 soldiers who had been recruited, and opened the city gate to meet the enemy.

When the news came back to the General's Mansion, everyone was like a blow to the head.

After that, the former Zhenbei veteran, General Fu didn't dare to think about it until now.

The enemy pioneers, who numbered less than 10,000 men, were only trying to delay them.

Suddenly, 100,000 iron horsemen swept in from a distance like rolling black waves.

Later, I learned that the enemy's iron hooves were caught off guard in order to hit them, and the grain convoy was so conspicuous that they didn't even bring supplies, one person took two horses, and when they were hungry, they killed horses and drank blood.

Nearly 110,000 enemy troops were like wild wolves trying to tear open the northern city pass, and the offensive was extremely rapid.

On their side, the original Zhenbei army was less than 30,000 people.

Grandpa Huo had less than 10,000 men, and the soldiers took the lead in meeting the enemy, and on the battlefield, he injured his leg to save the Nine Emperors who were almost killed under the horse, and he was rescued by his subordinates from a coma.

As for the conscripted military service, most of the dead and wounded were killed and wounded by the Nine Emperor Princes who were forced to go out of the city to meet the enemy.

General Yan, the chief general, immediately sent messengers to borrow troops from the nearest battalion and asked the imperial court to transfer troops.

The northern city pass was almost unprotected several times, and all the soldiers fought bloodily overnight.

At this time, the reason why General Fu was ashamed was because many years ago, General Yan Lao had ordered that the conscripted soldiers should go out of the city to meet the enemy, and changed the original intention of only letting the people do logistics.

And in order to delay the arrival of reinforcements, in order to preserve the strength of the army, more regular soldiers can be left in the city tower, and it is ordered to leave only a small number of people who carry stones and arrow feathers, and the rest are placed in the front to consume the enemy's weapons.

So when the last group of requisitioned soldiers and 10,000 regular soldiers rushed out, General Yan Lao, the previous general who had promoted him several times, ordered the city gate to be closed.

Over the years, there is only one thing that can often wake up General Fu, that is, he dreamed of the battlefield again, and the appearance of many soldiers before they died.

There is no shortage of their extremely young and outstanding subordinates under the veterans here.

And the already scrawny populace, all of whom looked back at the closing gate with the same expression of disbelief.

Close, which means abandoned.

But that day, tens of thousands of sons and daughters who were abandoned outside the city, after seeing that glance, picked up their weapons and rushed forward to kill again.

The voice that came to the top of the city tower, someone seemed to take the lead in shouting, behind him is the homeland, the brothers are all dead anyway, let us kill the two more, and the two of them will enter the city to harm our parents, wives and children!

"Kill, kill, kill!"

General Fu often sat up late at night, and this image flashed through his mind.

It was snowing, and the bright blood of those Huaxia children was mixed with snowflakes, and the ice on the ground fused together, and the blood flowed like a river, fighting to the end.

On the tower of the garrison, there were also many soldiers who threw stones down, and their eyes were red and begged these generals: "I beg you to open the gates of the city, and I beg the general to let us go out of the city to meet the enemy, my brother is still outside the city!" ”

Some soldiers were even full of anger, and after scolding the enemy soldiers who were about to climb the ladder to the city tower, they turned over and jumped off the city tower in front of their positions.

When he died, he hugged the enemy tightly and did not blink his eyes.

After that, the northern city pass was secured, reinforcements came, and the enemy retreated to make peace.

The emperor responded, and the emperor also affirmed General Yan's decision-making and gave them the honor of these surviving generals.

Today, the emperor is still afraid of the uproar of the people in the world, in order to cover the absurd behavior of the Nine Emperor Princes, the son of the concubine, if there is no Nine Emperor Princes to underestimate the enemy, this battle will fall to the bottom from the beginning, and it will be many years late to announce the list of the dead.

General Fu knew that the imperial court was in deficit.

If he had taken 10,000 steps back, he would have understood that the regular army had not received compensation and pensions, but they received their salaries on weekdays and three times as much for participating in the war.

Moreover, if one person joins the army, the family will be exempted from military service.

But what about the 50,000 people who were requisitioned and had already spilled their blood on the battlefield?

Therefore, General Fu was very ashamed when he saw a few letters written to them by the common people Xu Tianxin.

At this time, General Fu sat there stunned and pondered:

He never won a war, and he never stopped being promoted.

Even Huo Yunqian took over Beidi this time, and he also promoted him, a veteran of the former Zhenbei, by one level.

There is only one goal for the general, and that is to win.

Jia Lai had been thinking about how to take advantage of the people to visit him, so that the morale would be higher later, this was an opportunity, and he had to talk to the soldiers after today.

Unexpectedly, General Fu overturned the stool, stood up and took a few big strides forward, and his face turned red before he spoke.

What is this thinking, thinking excitedly? And give him a start.

"You're a bit rude in front of the general." Jallet warned.

With whom, these veterans of the original Zhenbei Army are not a little deep, no matter how excited they are, they can't be so rude. You talk at a distance, their general is a little clean.

General Fu didn't have time to deal with Jia Lai.

General Fu came to the north from Huo Yunqian, although he was convinced by the Huo family in his heart, he still does not forget that Grandpa Huo took the lead back then, if it weren't for the Nine Emperors of the straw bag, Grandpa Huo would not have gone to the battlefield and was carried back into a coma for two days, and when he woke up, the enemy army withdrew, and Grandpa Huo was crippled.

I also hope in my heart that the Zhenbei army led by Huo Yunqian will become different.

But he has always behaved a little awkwardly, feeling that he is too honest to betray General Yan.

You must know that General Huo has only been in charge for half a year, and he can't show that he is afraid of being poked in the back.

But this moment ......

General Fu thought to himself: It turns out that people always have something to stimulate in order to look directly into their hearts, just like clearing the fog of years of awakening, and just understanding what they can do before they are old.

Especially his wife and children have been doing well by borrowing his light, as long as he doesn't rebel, he will continue to be fine, that's fine.

And what can he do, I have to say that the girl who can play suona is very domineering, and what he writes is what he wants to do all his life.

One hopes for the revitalization of the north, the second hopes that the strong army in the north will not be invaded by foreign enemies, and the third is that the enemy can go, and our army can also go. He must let the enemy army also taste, what is called a soldier coming to the city, as a general, not killing the Quartet, in vain!

And:

"General!"

Don't look at General Fu didn't think much about it, in fact, it didn't take long for Huo Yunqian to retract his gaze from the dark outside the city, and turned his head to look at his subordinates who were close at hand.

It's really a little close to him, can you speak farther away: "Say." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ The humble official knew that the general planned to reclaim the wasteland, and the humble official had a reluctant request, and he hoped that the general would be fulfilled. Back then, 53,000 strong men spilled blood for the Northland, can they ......?"

When Sui He came back, he had already been stopped and said that the generals inside were deliberating.

Where did Sui He think that Xu Tianxin's two pages of paper were really good, maybe he couldn't imagine that he would lend Tian Xin ten heads, she was stunned to let the inside discuss and discuss, the court couldn't send the pension silver, isn't it the king's land under the whole world? Then their Zhenbei Army decided to send soil.

There must be a charter for this, and it is time to give an account to those who regard death as home.

Then, after the dust settles, face up to the defeat many years ago and admit the humiliation, so that you can be ashamed and courageous.

Moreover, General Yuan Zhenbei Fu said that he proposed that he knew the difficulties of the general, so he came to write the recital.

"The Admiral agrees." The other six generals of the original Zhenbei Army stood up in unison, intending to follow General Fu to jointly write a recital.

lest the imperial court take their current generals and their power too great and want to talk about the military fields behind their backs.

Next, there is a discussion around a topic: "After all the work is done, how can we let every family reclaim five acres." ”

"That's a lot, and you know, it's called and it goes to the people. In a few years, the wasteland will become fertile land, and the price of one acre of fertile land will be five. ”

"Huh? What you said is not right, I also think that with the momentum of General Fenwu training our soldiers to the death, our northern border will welcome back more and more people and merchants to settle in our town, and the housing prices will rise at that time. Can you sell at a price in a few years' time? ”

He felt that General Fu's words were very reasonable. Moreover, it was the lowly who led the tens of thousands of military service in those years. I remember that some people were very prominent, and I still have an impression of them. If they hadn't spilled blood on the battlefield back then, they wouldn't be able to say that they would be rich men now, at least they would have no worries about food and clothing. I dreamed back at midnight that I had thought that those outstanding strong men must be the pillars of the family. ”

That's not sure it's all the military service quota that the eldest son took his own initiative.

The pillars of the roof never returned, and his family members ...... all these years

"What's wrong with five acres of wasteland, with that ability, I tell you the truth, I have several people who want to keep them in the future, that is, let them be ordinary soldiers under me, and they have earned it for so many years. General Xu, don't be tough, listen to me first! ”

General Xu is angry, am I and you strong, you are sharing the royal land, your fiefdom? It's okay to take the king's land and distribute it first, even if you divide too much, even if there is a reason, the emperor is uncomfortable. When the time comes, I won't trouble you as a border general, and you won't have an opinion on our general?

It's no better than a wet market.

Huo Yunqian had Xu Youtian in his mind, and he once wanted to take him away.

I thought of Xu Tianxin again, ah, this time I read the letter and realized that it turned out to be this Tian, this core word.

Very good.

I didn't expect to be able to promote the relationship between the generals of the former Zhenbei and the generals of the Huo family.

Huo Yunqian waved his hand and said, "Eat dumplings first, we will also have the Shangyuan Festival here." ”

It can be seen that Huo Yunqian is in a very good mood.

And in order not to affect the excitement of the ordinary soldiers and ordinary people below, you see, none of these generals dared to go down to the city tower, for fear that the people below would salute and restrain them when they saw them.
