Volume 17 Wine Boiled Country Chapter 1955 The Woman Behind It
"Looks in good spirits. ”
As soon as Qin Ming entered the door, he saw Hu Wei sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun, and his tense face immediately relaxed. For three days, because he was busy with too many things, he didn't have the time to come and see Hu Wei, and it wasn't until today that he finally found time to take a look at this old friend.
"You look pretty smug too. Hu Wei said with a smile. Yesterday he was already in good spirits, otherwise he wouldn't have dared to go outside alone. After another night's rest, today is naturally better. At least ordinary people can't see anything wrong with him.
Although he hadn't seen Qin Ming since he woke up, he had a lot of news about Qin Ming. Because in the absence of Hu Wei and Ouyang Putin, who led the ghost army of Ximen Zhanhu to attack the city, Qin Ming obtained a very high reputation at this time, whether in the Three Wolves Army or in the hearts of the people of Longcheng, and Ouyang Putin also took the opportunity to hand over most of the military affairs to Qin Ming, so Qin Ming has been very busy these days.
"I have something to be proud of. Qin Ming shook his head and found a seat to sit down. Only in front of Hu Wei will he show his truest side. And in front of others, he habitually puts a cold mask on himself. In fact, which one is the real Qin Ming, even if it is Qin Ming himself, I am afraid that he will not be able to figure it out.
"Yo, when I didn't know, you're already the commander of Dragon City now. Hu Wei laughed. Although he also knew that Qin Ming's willingness to accept this appointment had a certain relationship with him and Renata, Qin Ming's choice still made him quite satisfied.
has been an old friend for so many years, Hu Wei naturally hopes that Qin Ming will be well. Qin Ming is indeed a person with that ability, why not take out his ability and make it easier for everyone.
Qin Ming glanced at Hu Wei and shook his head. Too lazy to answer the words of nonsense. Regarding this matter, others don't understand, Hu Wei is too clear, and he doesn't need to explain anything to Hu Wei.
"Alright, alright, with me, don't put on your stinky face. Hu Wei saw that Qin Ming didn't answer, and said with a smile: "I remember that you have always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and it won't be something if you come to see me so well today." ”
"Something. "Qin Ming doesn't seem to want to play tricks with Hu Wei here. Speak directly.
"Huh?" Hu Wei's face froze, his words were just a little joke with Qin Ming, but looking at Qin Ming's appearance, it seemed that this joke was not funny at all.
"Is something wrong?" Hu Wei put away his smile and asked sternly. Qin Ming's temper was very clear to him, and he knew that he would not laugh at this kind of thing.
Qin Ming said: "Just now, I received news that the Ximen War Tiger has set up troops to go north. ”
"This ......" Hu Wei's brain was a little short-circuited for a while, and he hadn't been able to realize what Qin Ming's words meant.
Qin Ming ignored Hu Wei. continued: "In my judgment, Ximen Zhanhu should want to take the northern battlefield first, and then turn around to deal with us when the strength in his hand is strong enough." Of course. There is also another possibility, that is, there are more powerful people to replace Ximen Zhanhu as our new opponent, and Ximen Zhanhu is vacating the seat. ”
In the thousand-year-old war history of the Heavenly Wind Continent. Most of the time it's the North that plays the South. It is rare to see such a situation as the Mandala Empire where the south is stronger than the north. Ximen Zhanhu suddenly gave up attacking Dragon City and turned north, which made everyone who received the news nervous.
What is Ximen Zhanhu going to do?
This is the question that everyone wants to know the answer to.
Ouyang Putin after receiving the definite news. A military meeting was immediately held, and even Hu Wei, who was recuperating at home, was invited to the venue.
The meeting started in the morning, and a lot was said at the meeting, but there was not much really useful stuff. There is too little information at hand, and no one can say for sure what the purpose of Ximen Zhanhu is.
In the end, the meeting ended in nothing, and Hu Wei was invited to the back room by Ouyang Putin. It can be seen that Ouyang Putin is not satisfied with the results of the meeting, and he hopes that Hu Wei can give him more opinions.
"Actually, shouldn't we relax a little, isn't it a good thing for us that the Ximen War Tiger will no longer attack the dragon?" As Ouyang Putin's favorite young player, Chen Bailin was also present.
Being young is the capital, compared to others, Chen Bailin doesn't need to have too much consideration when he speaks, and he will come out of whatever he thinks of in his heart.
Hu Wei glanced at Ouyang Putin and said, "That's what I said, but this matter is weird, and we can't take it so lightly." ”
In the battle a few days ago, Longcheng won the Ximen Zhanhu, but after the post-war sorting in the past few days, everyone knew that the loss of the Ximen Zhanhu was not large, and he had the strength to fight with Longcheng again. And with his previous experience, he can be better prepared, and when the time comes, he should be worried, I'm afraid it's still on the side of Dragon City.
But under such circumstances, Ximen Zhanhu took the initiative to evacuate Dragon City, if this news was not Qin Ming's report to Hu Wei, Hu Wei would really think that person was joking.
"Then what can we do now?" Chen Bailin did not deny Qin Ming's words, but at this stage, he didn't know what he could do.
Hu Wei groaned: "I think that not only can we not relax, but also have to be nervous openly and secretly. ”
Ouyang Putin asked: "Do you think Ximen Zhanhu will kill a horse pistol?"
Compared with Chen Bailin, Ouyang Putin's war experience is naturally richer. Hu Wei's words were just a mention, and he had already thought of what Hu Wei really meant.
"Yes, I do have concerns about that. Although I don't know much about this person Ximen Zhanhu, I can be sure that he is definitely not the kind of person who admits defeat lightly, and I have a hunch that he will definitely come back again. ”
Ouyang Putin nodded, looked at Qin Ming, and asked, "Qin Ming, what do you think?"
Qin Ming didn't say anything during the entire meeting, and he sat on the side when he entered the inner room, not saying a word. This will ask Ouyang Putin by name, and he naturally can't help but answer.
"I agree with Hu Wei. The answer was very simple, Qin Ming didn't even repeat Hu Wei's words. Just a few words, expressing what he meant.
Ouyang Putin gritted his teeth and said: "Then we will do what Hu Wei said, and be ready to attack Ximen Zhanhu again at any time." ”
It has been seven days since Simon Zhanhu's troops withdrew. For seven days, the wind and waves were calm, and nothing suspicious happened. Ordinary people who don't know the inside story think that the war is over, so what kind of ghost army is just a loud thunder and a small raindrop, and they have no ability. I was scared of being beaten once, and I didn't dare to come to Dragon City again.
The common people think so, but senior generals such as Ouyang Putin, Hu Wei, and Qin Ming don't dare to think so. Because the ghost army disappeared three days ago.
Yes, it's gone. After receiving the news that the ghost army had withdrawn from Dragon City, Ouyang Putin sent a large number of spies to secretly investigate the situation of the ghost army. In the past few days, a large amount of information about the actions of the ghost army has been transmitted back every day, although there are not many valuable clues in it, but at least it shows that the movements of the ghost army have been in everyone's sight.
But since three days ago, the clues about the ghost army have completely disappeared. It's as if they've never saved a zài. If you don't see it, you don't see it. Hundreds of spies tried an unknown amount of effort, but they couldn't find the slightest clue about the ghost army. That alone is enough to make people sleep restlessly. The defense of Dragon City also began at that time. Mentioned to be the highest.
These things are all carried out in secret, not by the parties involved, or by the army that is directly mobilized. I didn't know that Longcheng had already concentrated all its strength to one point, and was ready to fight with Ximen Zhanhu again at any time.
Although he was very nervous, the soldier's mentality was good. No matter what they say, they also won the battle of Simon Tiger. Even if he had to face him again, the soldier had the courage and determination to win.
Soldiers are just waiting for war to start at any time, they don't need to think too much, but others can't do nothing and wait for the war to come, for example, Hu Wei, he can't eat, sleep, eat, nourish his spirit, etc. like a soldier. He was in front of the map, constantly analyzing what might happen.
"This is the place where Ximen Zhanhu disappeared, I went there to check it out for myself, and there were no clues. It's like they've never been there, and they're gone with the air. ”
The person who is looking at the map is naturally waiting for three. Hou San was not the intelligence leader of the Three Wolves Army at this time, but he also did not relax, because he knew that Hu Wei needed his report, but unfortunately, this time he couldn't help Hu Wei.
"Is it really impossible to find out at all?" asked Hu Wei unwillingly. Although the ghost army is different from ordinary armies, they don't need to eat, they don't need to drink, they don't get sick if they don't fight, and there is no problem with the wind, but after all, they are real and existing, as long as they are objects that are stored, they shouldn't disappear like that, there will always be some clues left.
Hou San shook his head and said, "It's true that there is nothing, it's cleaner than my face." ”
Hou San's words are a joke, but unfortunately no one thinks it's funny, Zhu Daneng's face even looks a little like crying.
"Young marshal, I think we will be in trouble this time. Otherwise, let's lock down the city. ”
In the backyard, Hu Wei thought about Zhu Daneng's mention. Zhu Daneng's mention of sealing the city, if it was placed in normal times, Hu Wei would not have listened to it. Although Dragon City is large, it is a town with few resources, and once the city is closed, all aspects of Dragon City will be completely paralyzed.
But now, Hu Wei had to consider Zhu Daneng's proposal. The actions of the Ximen War Tigers are really weird, they can disappear overnight, they will appear overnight, and maybe the place where they appear is Dragon City, or even inside Dragon City.
Hu Wei didn't think it was a joke, because Ximen Zhanhu did have this ability. And Hu Wei had a hunch that when Ximen Zhanhu and his ghost army appeared once, it was definitely a terrible change of color in heaven and earth. If the fiefdom could prevent this from happening, Hu Wei didn't think there was anything wrong with doing that.
But until when?
This is a difficult problem that Hu Wei must face. The ghost army doesn't need to eat and drink, to put it mildly, they can find a place to hide for ten or eight years, and when the time is ripe, they suddenly rush out and get what they want.
Simon Zhanhu can wait indefinitely. It's impossible. Let's not say that the Three Wolf Army is not his business, and the mention of the closure of the city must be carried out only by passing guò, just to say that the appearance of the Ximen War Tiger is uncertain, Hu Wei is very headache.
is still the same sentence, Ximen Zhanhu can wait, Hu Wei can't wait. If Dragon City is really locked down and commerce and exchanges inside and outside the city are prohibited, then it is certain that in less than a month, Dragon City will be finished on its own.
"This can't be done. Ouyang Putin will not agree either. Hu Wei sighed and denied Zhu Daneng's proposal. After all, the soldiers and civilians of Dragon City are not ghost troops, they have to eat and wear, so if they cut off their own way, then wait for themselves to kill themselves.
"Are you thinking about Simon Zhanhu again?"
When the autumn leaves are in progress, by the way, I bring a bowl of noodles to Hu Wei. When she was eating just now, Hu Wei didn't eat anything, she was afraid that Hu Wei would be hungry.
"Can you not think about it?" Hu Wei smiled bitterly: "Ximen Zhanhu's hand can really play people to death." ”
"But that's what I thought. It doesn't seem to have much to gain, if you don't talk to the third sister, how can Ximen Zhanhu say that she is also her father, she may be able to guess Ximen Zhanhu's thoughts. ”
The mention of red leaves made Hu Wei a little moved. Although Ximen Zhanhu is now a ghost and not a human, he is still a Ximen Zhanhu after all, and Ximen Yufeng may really know something.
But Hu Wei was still a little hesitant in this regard, after all, Ximen Zhanhu's business. It was a blow to Ximen Yufeng, at this time, to ask Ximen Yufeng if he had a question about Ximen Zhanhu, wouldn't that be equivalent to sprinkling salt on Ximen Yufeng's wound.
"I don't want to. Hu Wei shook his head and said. He didn't want Ximen Yufeng to be hurt because of this.
Red leaves and Hu worry for so many years. How could you not know what Hu Wei thought. She gently pushed her face in front of Hu Wei and said, "This is the noodles that the third sister gave you, and she is waiting for you in the house." ”
After hesitating for a while, Hu Wei still knocked on the door of Ximen Yufeng.
"Come in, the door is unlocked. Ximen Yufeng's gentle voice came from the room, and although it was through the door, it could still be heard very clearly.
Hu Wei pushed the door open, God knows how worried he would be, if there was any other choice, he would definitely not come to Ximen Yufeng, but unfortunately now he doesn't seem to have any other choice, so he is here.
"Your noodles are delicious. I really don't know how to speak, Hu Wei said stupidly. He has known Ximen Yufeng for more than 20 years, and he has never found it so difficult to talk to Ximen Yufeng.
Of course, Hu Wei's difficulty is because he feels sorry for Ximen Yufeng. If it is a different person who has nothing to do with him, not only will he not feel any unbearable, but he can even use any means to achieve his goal. After all, it is related to the safety of the lives and property of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Dragon City, and compared with them with one person, it is so small that they can be sacrificed at any time.
"Yes, then sue me when you want to eat in the future. As if he didn't know the purpose of Hu You's coming, Ximen Yufeng let Hu Wei sit on it and poured a glass of water for Hu Wei.
"Yufeng, I'm ......" Hu Wei's mouth, which can say that the dead are alive, has become so stupid at this time, he doesn't know what he should say.
Ximen Yufeng smiled and said, "It's already an old husband and wife, you won't be shy." I remember when we first met, you weren't like this. ”
Hu Wei grabbed his brain and said, "It's not that I don't know how to open this mouth to you." ”
At the moment when Hu Wei said this, Ximen Yufeng clearly sensed Hu Wei's love for her. Of course, she knew why Hu Wei couldn't open this mouth, and it was precisely because of this that she took the initiative to pass the word through Guò Hongye and let Hu Wei come to her.
Coming behind Hu Wei, Ximen Yufeng gently hugged Hu Wei, and when he left, he put a booklet in front of Hu Wei and said: "My father had the habit of remembering things before his death, this is his notepad, you can take a look first, if there is anything you don't understand, just ask me." ”
Ximen Yufeng followed the Ximen Zhanhu to fight in the south and the north at the age of thirteen, and when it comes to the familiarity with the Ximen Zhanhu, there are not many people in the entire Tianfeng Continent who are still alive except for her. If you want to analyze Ximen Zhanhu, she is of course the most suitable person.
"Jade Wind ......" A warm current rushed through Hu Wei's heart, and at this moment, he really didn't know what to say to Ximen Yufeng. It seems that saying anything is superfluous.
"I understand. Ximen Yufeng gently pressed Hu Wei's mouth with her jade finger and said: "Believe me, I am not as fragile as you think, let go and do what you want, remember, behind you, there will always be a me who supports you!"
"Jade Wind ......"
Hu Wei couldn't suppress his emotions anymore, and hugged Ximen Yufeng, if he got a wife like this, what more could the husband ask for!(To be continued......)
