Chapter 12o advances to the imperial capital

The first order read out by the envoy of the third emperor Valencia was, among other things, the removal of Ximen Yufeng from the position of marshal.

When the man announced the order in a duck-like voice, the expressions of the people below who heard it were different. There are those who gloat, those who are indignant, and those who don't care about me.

One kind of rice raises a hundred kinds of people, and each person is an independent individual. This battle is fought like this, and the people involved have any opinions. They also have their own understanding of Valencia's orders, and most of their understandings are based on their own interests. If you have interests with Ximen Yufeng, of course you will be indignant.

Chen Yichi, Klinsmann's generals who abandoned the Fifth Route Army and fled along the road by themselves, their faces were ecstatic. Ximen Yufeng fell, and there was no one to deal with their escape, and they had nothing to do. Someone is responsible for the defeat, but they don't need to bear this responsibility.

When Hu Wei heard this order, he raised his eyes to look at Ximen Yufeng. As a marshal, Ximen Yufeng stood at the front, he couldn't see Ximen Yufeng's facial expression, he could only see Ximen Yufeng's back. I don't know why, Hu Wei seemed to feel that Ximen Yufeng's back was laughing.

Valencia's order was to remove the marshal, and not to remove Ximen Yufeng from his post of corps commander. In other words, Ximen Yufeng is still the commander of the Red Fen Legion, and he still has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command. Her strength has not changed.

What has changed is only the title, previously it was called Marshal, now it is called Legion Commander. Hu Wei didn't know much about the internal factions of the empire before, but after listening to Ximen Yufeng's words, he understood a lot of things at once. I also understood the meaning of Valencia's order.

The post of marshal was sealed by Valencia, and it is normal that it can be removed if it can be sealed. And this marshal is just a fictitious title, from the previous encounter between Xizikou and Lin Guiren, it can be seen that the marshal's control of the five major legions is not high, and if there is really an incident, Ximen Yufeng can hardly move other troops except for the Red Fen Legion in the headquarters.

Hu Wei believed that if he could, Valencia would most like to withdraw the commanders of the five major legions, not any marshal. Even if the marshal sounds, he is much more majestic than the corps commander. But the identity of the corps commander is hard, and it is a symbol of strength.

The dismissal of Marshal Ximen Yufeng from the post was announced, and a series of battle reports were announced. I only listened to a few words about this part, and I didn't want to listen to it anymore. It's a lot of fake and empty clichés, obviously this battle of Man'an, the empire can be said to be completely defeated, but after listening to these clichés, how can people feel that this battle is a big victory?

According to the text read out by Nate, this time the empire fought a heroic battle under extremely difficult circumstances and in the environment of an enemy country. Although he lost 150,000 troops, the results achieved were far greater than the sacrifices, and he played the prestige of the country and the army.

After hearing these words, Hu Wei almost didn't vomit on the spot. Is it really so powerful, if this is the case, then why did he remove Ximen Yufeng from his position as marshal as soon as he came up. Ximen Yufeng should be commended.

Awards?

Yes, the last thing the envoy announced was a long list of awards, and Hu Wei was stunned to hear his name. However, even he did not know what military exploits the Empire intended to reward him, and what he planned to give him.

The envoy didn't say anything. It was only finally announced that the people on the list would leave for the imperial capital in three days. The other troops are on standby in Linggui City, waiting for the next order.

The remnant sun was like blood, staining the earth red, and the first battle of Man'an began with the undeclared war of the Anrong people, and ended with the return order of the Mandala Empire to return to the city. After more than a year, the two sides invested a lot of manpower and material resources, and after hundreds of thousands of casualties, they returned to the original point.

Qingzhou is still the Mandala Empire, and the Anrong people have not gained anything. There seems to be no difference between a qiē and before, and then, is there really no difference?

"What are you thinking?" Hong's rare dress appeared next to Hu Wei, and gently asked Hu Wei, who was enjoying the afterglow of the sunset.

After Qingfeng Town fought with Lin Guiren for three days, the Red Belt Slave Camp Army and Ximen Shuang's Red Fen Army joined forces, worried about them for two days, and returned to Linggui City.

Hu Wei retracted his gaze and said with a bitter smile: "I'm thinking about whether the whole country will go bankrupt if the Anrong people release pensions according to our war report." ”

Hong was stunned for a moment when he heard Hu Wei's words, and then he reacted, Hu Wei was talking about the battle loss ratio between the two armies. According to the envoy's report, the Imperial Army wiped out four times as many security forces with 150,000 casualties. In terms of numbers, it is the battle of the empire, although 150,000 soldiers died, but the Anrong troops eliminated reached 600,000.

Red said: "Don't think about these boring things, this is the convention, and the war reports are written like this." ”

Hu Wei smiled and said, "They are too daring to write." I don't even know if there are 600,000 soldiers and horses in Anrong country.

Okay, let's not talk about that, you came to me, what's the matter?"

Hong sat down beside Hu You, took Hu Wei's hand, looked into Hu Wei's eyes and said, "I want to go back to the imperial capital with you tomorrow." ”

"Are you going too?" Hu Wei looked at Hong with some surprise.

"Well, I'm homesick. Red replied. She didn't say that she wanted to accompany Hu Wei, but said that homesickness meant that she wanted to sue Hu Wei, and her family lived in the imperial capital. In Hong's opinion, there are some things that should also be the time to sue sù worries.

"Oh, well. Hu Wei agreed. Red is no longer a medic now, but his military advisor, belonging to the status of a staff member, as long as he agrees, he can let Red go back to the empire with him, without asking others.

The people who returned to the imperial capital in the list of envoys this time were all officers who were partial to their superiors. Each officer can bring several people with him. Everyone is a general, so there can't be no one without a few envoys.

"Don't you ask what my family does?" Hongben thought that Hu Wei would ask about her family, and she was waiting, but who knew that Hu Wei agreed directly and didn't ask anything.

Hu Wei is not a fool, although Hong has never said the situation at home, but Hu Wei relies on his usual observations, more or less, and generally knows Hong's back. He just never said it.

"I know everything, what else do I ask. Hu Wei pulled Hong over and sat beside her. Although in terms of age, Hong is older than him, but when Hu Wei gets along with Hong, most of the time, he naturally takes care of her.

"You know?" "You know?" Hong, surprised, she didn't remember telling Hu Wei about it.

Hu Wei smiled: "Of course I know, my woman, can I not know." ”

When Hong heard Hu Wei's words, her face was slightly red, but she was very happy in her heart: "What do you know?"

"You are from the imperial capital, and you grew up in the imperial capital. ”

"What else?"

"Your family sells tofu. Hu Wei deliberately teased and said: "You have always been very beautiful, and you are known as the tofu princess." ”

Hong was amused by Hu Wei and giggled, tears in her eyes were about to burst out of her eyes, and she lay in Hu Wei's arms and gasped.

............

Ximen Yufeng had dinner, and was a little bored when he was idle, so he walked around casually. She is going back to the imperial capital tomorrow, which makes Guicheng not know if there will be a chance to come again in the future, she wants to see more of the scenery of the northern country.

was walking, and inadvertently, Ximen Yufeng saw Hu Wei. Although it was already a little dark, and she saw Hu Wei's back, she still recognized the person as Hu Wei at a glance. Ximen Yufeng walked over directly.

"Stinky man, he's cheating on girls again. Ximen Yufeng slapped Hu worriedly and said angrily.

"Hey, Sister Yu, why are you here?"

When Ximen Yufeng patted Hu Wei, it happened to be the time when Hongxiao was lying in Hu Wei's arms. Hong heard Hu Wei calling Sister Yu, and looked back reflexively. She has been following Hu Wei for some days, and she never knows when Hu Wei will have another sister.

It doesn't matter if it's red or not, it really startled her when she saw it, and her whole face turned red, not to hide, not to hide.

"Red" Ximen Yufeng also saw a woman in Hu Wei's arms before, but she thought it was Zhebei, so she came up to shoot Hu Wei. Now the woman who suddenly appeared in Hu Wei's arms was actually her childhood partner, and she couldn't help but be stunned.

Hong heard Ximen Yufeng call his name, he was too shy, and he got into Hu Wei's arms again, and shouted again and again: "It's not me, it's not me." ”

Hu Wei was made to laugh by Hong's reaction, he had long known that Hong and Ximen Yufeng knew each other, and he had imagined what it would be like for them to meet, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

"Laugh at what a laugh. Ximen Yufeng glanced at Hu Wei fiercely, pulled Hong out of Hu Wei's arms and said, "Okay, don't hide, what are you talking about good sisters, hide when you see me, come out quickly." ”

Hong also knew that there was no way to hide now, so he had to look at Ximen Yufeng embarrassedly, and said in a voice: "I originally thought that I would go to you later, don't think that you will come first." ”

Ximen Yufeng laughed and said: "You, if you have a lover, how can you remember me." ”

"you, stinky jade phoenix, look at your nonsense. Hong was amused by Ximen Yufeng, and couldn't help but hit Ximen Yufeng. The two of them have been very good friends since then, and being joked by Ximen Yufeng evoked a lot of childhood memories.

"Dare to hit me, see how I clean you up. Ximen Yufeng will also have a childlike heart, and stretch out his hand to itch Hahong. It's a game they used to play. As soon as he made this move, Red raised his hand and surrendered.

"Ah, hahaha" Red was dodged everywhere by Ximen Yufengha, and writhed vigorously in Hu Wei's arms.

Ximen Yufeng also seemed to have forgotten about Hu Yu's worries, and chased after Hongha.

Hu Wei is happy now, but hehe is so happy. The two women chased and hid around him, which really made him eat a lot of tofu.

The two women chased after each other for a long time before they stopped and gasped. The two women laughed for a while, it was really a messy dress, the light was infinite, and the eyes that looked worried were about to pop out.

Ximen Yufeng was about to say something to Hong, but suddenly Hu Yu's eyes were wrong, and he glared and said: "What to see, flash aside, I haven't seen Hong for a long time, I want to have a good chat." ”

Hu Wei is willing to go, such a beautiful scenery is something that men don't want to let go: "You talk, I'll just sit here, promise not to say a word, I won't disturb you." ”

Ximen Yufeng said angrily: "We talk about women, and men are not welcome." ”

"Well, what is this called?"

A long train of carriages, with more than 300 vehicles, marched on the road to the imperial capital. These carriages are exquisite, made of materials, exquisite carvings, and gilded patterns, highlighting the extraordinary cost at the same time, but also highlighting the noble identity of the people in the car. If you compare these carriages with the ragged and blank-eyed passers-by on the road, it will be even more imposing.

Purple mandala flowers, under the sun, emitting a dazzling cold light. Pedestrians on the road, as soon as they saw the mandala flowers on the wall of the car, immediately lowered their heads and leaned to the side of the road, not daring to make the slightest superfluous movement.

Mandala flowers, five kinds of handicaps, heavenly rain mandala, Maha mandala, manju sawa, Mahammanshu sawa, and the most mysterious purple mandala that does not mix with the other four colors. Legend has it that the mandala flower falls from the sky, the flowers fall like rain, it is the most holy thing, and only the lucky ones who are born have the opportunity to see her. And seeing it can bring people endless happiness.

Then the pedestrians on the road saw the purple mandala badge on the wall of the car, but it didn't necessarily bring any happiness, if they didn't go fast, they would be whipped a few times by the soldiers who escorted the car. Because the purple mandala on this car represents the imperial power of the mandala empire, and disrespecting it is disrespecting the empire. And the consequences of disrespect to the empire, it will be great. In short, it is okay to let you die, and it is okay to let you live, but it is just a sentence from those in power.

The front and rear of each carriage were guarded by soldiers, and the soldiers' uniforms were all the same, but the colors were different, black, white, red, yellow, and green. Hu Wei was also in the carriage at this time, and his escort was a soldier in a green uniform. Driving for him was a big fat man in a green military uniform.

"Maragobi, what kind of carriage is this, I can't walk a few miles a day, and I'm about to suffocate to death. Hu Wei rushed out of the trunk, and complained to the driver's side.

The fat coachman is none other than Hu Wei's old subordinate Zhu Daneng, and this time Hu Wei entered the imperial capital, so he naturally took him with him. This time, Hu Wei brought a total of three people to the imperial capital, namely Hong, Zhu Daneng and Harrison. Among all the officers who entered the imperial capital, he was the last to bring the few. If Hou San is not now under Zilawi, he will bring Hou San with him.

Zhu Daneng has been by Hu Wei's side for so long, and he knows Hu Wei quite well. He knew that Hu Wei was not hating going slowly, but he was unhappy.

Zhu Daneng said with a smile: "Why don't you go to the car of the commander of the Ximen Army, there are a lot of interesting things over there." ”

This long convoy is impossible to go fast. I didn't go fast before, so I didn't see Hu Wei complaining about anything. Zhu Daneng knew that Hu Wei's boredom started when Hong was called to her by Ximen Yufeng. If Hong was still in the car at this time, Zhu Daneng would bet that Hu Wei would not be idle and slow, but felt that the car was going too fast.

Hu Wei rolled his eyes and said, "You think I'm stupid, go over there and let them bully." You don't know what's going on over there, or you wouldn't be saying that. ”

Hu Wei thought about the situation in Ximen Yufeng's car, and couldn't help but feel palpitations. Ximen Yufeng's car was not as empty as his. In Ximen Yufeng's car, it is simply a red fen cave, a hero's mound.

"It's not that scary, at least half of our more than 1,000 people want to get into that car, you have the chance, but you don't go, I really can't figure out what you want. Zhu Daneng said with a puzzled face.

Hu Wei said fiercely: "You know a fart." Don't look at you so fat, if you spend a day in that car, you'll be skinny. Don't believe it, do you know who's in that car?

Ximen Yufeng won't talk about it, she is not an ordinary person who can deal with it well. In addition to Ximen Yufeng in the car, there is also the fierce Ximen Shuang, the whole Ximen Xue who is holding back the whole person, what are the big phoenixes and two phoenixes, except for the red ones that are easy to deal with, who do you think you can move when you go in.

This doesn't count, don't you look at these guys, all of them are looking at the carriage from time to time, in this case, Ximen Yufeng's car has become the target of everyone, and no one else can go in, so if you go in, you won't be angry with them. You haven't been killed with your eyes, you don't understand. ”

Zhu Daneng said: "Hearing you say this, that place is almost comparable to the tiger's den in Longtan." ”

Hu Wei said: "It's not fast to compare, it's there itself, it's just that many people can't see the terrible." ”

"I'm not going. Harrison answered a sentence on the side, he has been worrying about Hu for a long time, and he dares to interject from time to time like Zhu Daneng. When he first met with Hu Wei, he didn't talk much to Ben, like a stuffy gourd.

Such a convoy could not go far for a whole day, but it was only fifty or sixty miles, which was indeed very slow for a carriage. But the envoy doesn't have any opinions, and the big guys don't have any opinions.

Hu Wei chatted with Zhu Daneng and Harrison, and then returned to the car, and in the past few days, he has been thinking about a question, that is, why Valencia recruited hundreds of middle and high-ranking generals to the imperial capital at this time. You must know that this is not a peaceful time, although the army has all been transferred back to the city, but the battle with An Rong has not been declared over, and it seems that it is not a good time to withdraw important generals in the army.

And that envoy is obviously dragging his feet, only walking fifty or sixty miles a day, and this to the empire, it will take at least a month, and there are too many unreasonable places in this.
