Chapter Ninety-Six: Peach Blossom Village
Chapter Ninety-Six
When the sky was slightly bright, the Tang army suddenly assembled and opened its formation to call for battle.
And the Chu army, which had been attacked at night, was tense all night, and now it was sleepy and tired, and it was unable to fight anymore.
After Xiang Feng, who had not slept all night, learned of the situation, he could only sigh weakly, and then asked someone to hang out the anti-war card.
Since the Chu army attacked the Tang State, the morale of the army has been very high, and now the war exemption card is hung out, which will inevitably affect the morale of the army.
But this is also a helpless move, if you face the battle now, the probability of defeat is extremely high, and then the morale of the army will fall to the bottom.
And last night, the generals of the Chu army who were reprimanded, no one dared to shout for the battle at this time, so as not to completely anger Xiang Feng on his head.
Wei Chixiong was a little surprised to see that Chu Jun had actually put up a war-free card.
I didn't expect the riot in the Chu army's camp last night to have such a big impact on the Chu army.
I wanted to lead the army to face the Chu army head-on today and take a pinch of the Chu army's sharpness.
But it is obviously impossible, with his own understanding of Xiang Feng, Xiang Feng will definitely not come out to fight today.
Wei Chixiong looked at Du Tao and wanted to know what Du Tao thought about the current situation.
As a result, he saw that Du Tao didn't seem to wake up, yawning and squirming, and writhing on the horse absentmindedly.
snorted coldly in his heart, if it weren't for Du Tao being appointed by King Tang, let Yu Chixiong cut him down earlier.
In fact, Du Tao has ideas, but now that the military power is almost deprived, last night's advice was ignored by Wei Chixiong, which made Du Tao angry in his heart.
Since you call me as an ornament, then Lao Tzu will make the ornament! Anyway, Lao Tzu is the deputy general of Tang Wangfeng, even if you Wei Chixiong is the main general, you can't do anything with me.
After receiving no advice from Du Tao, Wei Chixiong immediately called someone forward to continue calling the battle.
However, after most of the day, the Chu army still did not make any move, and Wei Chixiong could only reluctantly lead the troops to retreat.
And on the border of Chu State from this side of the battlefield, a cavalry has quietly crossed the path in the mountains and forests and came to the territory of Chu State.
"My lord, we have entered the territory of Chu State, and there should be a village in front of us." Gongsun Qi pointed to the front and said.
"My lord, do you want to send troops to take that village?" Qin Yuan asked.
Qin Yu stopped and ordered: "Order, rest in place." ”
"No!"
After the team rested, Qin Yu took off the armor on his body.
"Gongsun Qi, you call one or two brothers, take off their armor, change into cloth clothes, and follow me to the village in front to find out the situation."
"No!" Gongsun Qi immediately went to call someone.
At this time, Qin Yuan said: "My lord, why bother so much, a small village can be directly captured." ”
Qin Yu glared at Qin Yuan and said, "The people in the village are ordinary people, you led the troops over, are you going to kill those people?" ”
Qin Yuan lowered his head and didn't dare to answer, in the past, when he fought before, he encountered the village and occupied it directly, although he would kill a lot of people, but they were all people who resisted.
After Gongsun Qi and the others were ready, Qin Yu took a few people to the village.
Qin Yuan stayed and waited for the order, and he was not allowed to act without an order.
The small village mentioned by Gongsun Qi is located in a very remote area.
If it weren't for Sun Erniang and the others marking it on the map, even the map of Chu State itself would not have the mark of this village.
The village is between two mountains, and the roads in and out are all mountain roads, which is very inconvenient.
At a glance, there are only a dozen households in this village, but there are a few peach trees planted in the village, and the flowers are in full bloom at this time.
"It's really a paradise, and it would be a pity if it was destroyed by war." Qin Yu couldn't help but sigh.
"yes, it's a great place." When Gongsun Qi saw this, he couldn't help but think of his hometown.
"Let's go, let's go in and see what's going on."
When Qin Yu and the others arrived at the entrance of the village, they were discovered by the villagers, and these villagers were also very enthusiastic, and a few people ran to meet them.
"Someone's coming! Someone is here again! Several villagers surrounded them, one looked at the two and asked with a smile: "A few people are from other places, we haven't been here for a long time, welcome a few people to come to our flower picking village!" ”
"Yes, we're from out of town." Qin Yu replied, "Your village is very beautiful, I didn't expect that there would be such a paradise in this world. ”
"Thanks for the compliment." The villager replied with a smile, "Although we are remote here, we have a beautiful environment, far away from distractions, and life is peaceful." I don't know how many of them have come, and where are they going? ”
Qin Yu arched his hand and said: "We are merchants who travel around the world, and when we were traveling to the Tang Kingdom, the Tang Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom suddenly went to war, so we had to find some mountain paths to avoid the military disaster, but I didn't expect to come here by mistake." ”
"Merchant?" The villagers looked at a few people suspiciously, and asked, "If a few of them are merchants, why are they empty?" ”
Qin Yu explained with a smile: "Now that the army is in chaos, how dare you bring anything with you, now I just want to go to Chu State as soon as possible to join my friends." I didn't expect to strayed into this place and see such a beautiful village. ”
"I see," the villagers sighed heavily, "it is not easy for everyone in this era of war and chaos, since a few people have come to our village, it is better to stay here for a few days, maybe there will be a truce after a few days outside." ”
"This... Then I'm sorry for you. Qin Yu hesitated for a moment, and then agreed.
"Good, good! A few please! Our village has a special place to entertain foreign guests, and you don't need to spend money on food and accommodation. ”
The villagers enthusiastically brought Qin Yu and others into the village, and after the other people in the village saw Qin Yu and the others, they also enthusiastically gathered around, and the whole village became lively all of a sudden.
In the end, Qin Yu and the others were arranged to stay at the village chief's house.
The village chief is an elderly man with limited mobility and who is over 100 years old, and he is highly respected in the village, and the people in the village take turns to take care of the old village chief.
For the arrival of Qin Yu and the others, the village chief was very happy, and he asked someone to cook and clean the room, and he always had a smile on his face.
Looking at the enthusiastic villagers around him, Gongsun Qi pulled the corner of Qin Yu's clothes and asked in a low voice, "My lord, do you really want to live here?" I always felt that something was wrong here. ”
Qin Yu whispered: "Don't worry, take a look at the situation first and then inquire about the news, and don't call me an adult, call me president." ”
"Yes, President."
As soon as the two finished talking, the old village chief asked, "Are there any dissatisfaction with the people?" If you have anything, you can bring it up, although we are in the middle of nowhere, we will try our best to satisfy a few people. ”
Qin Yu arched his hand and said: "The old village chief is polite, we were just discussing how to repay you in the future." ”
"Hahaha, there is no need to repay, you are here, we are also a rare time, everyone is happy, just be happy." The old village chief said with a smile, but the old smile looked a little oozing.
