Chapter 117 Minister, Command!

"Your Highness, take a shot?"

"Let's have a shot. ”

Xu Xian got up and wiped the pale green wine stains on the corner of his mouth, smiled, took the tobacco leaves handed over by Ma Youliang, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, it was still slightly moist.

Tear into tobacco and press it in the pipe,

The horse has grain and blows the fire fold,

"Hoo ......"

The smoke slowly disappeared into the slightly moist air like a long dragon, and the smell of rich tobacco had covered the faint smell of blood on the fingertips.

Xu Xian, who never smoked in his previous life, has now become a smoker, and he always likes to smoke a rod when he finishes his work.

"Your Highness!"

"To be honest, I still don't think it's real. ”

Ma Youliang held the cigarette stick and took a sip, the old cigarette stick is made of bamboo, a use is twenty years, in the words of the old horse, this thing is to give a gold pipe without changing, the black smoke in it, so that the smoke in the smoke can smoke the taste of the gods.

"You said this barbarian was just destroyed by us?"

Ma Youliang patted the golden tent under his butt and asked, the remaining Liangzhou iron cavalry in the distance was cleaning the battlefield, and the left ear of the barbarian was already piled up with several baskets, this battle was won, and many barbarians were killed, but more of them died in chaos.

"Isn't the head of the barbarian king still resting there?"

Xu Xian chuckled.

"Don't think about it. ”

"......"

"Do you want to pee once?"

Xu Xian pointed to the golden tent below and said abruptly.

"Pee once?"

"Done!"

"Then pee once!"

"People are old, useless!"

"I wanted to accompany His Majesty back then and still be able to withstand the wind and urine, but now I ......"

Comparing the distance of the next two water stains,

The horse shook his boots undetectably,

The old face turned red and sighed.

......

On the battlefield in the distance,

The soldier who called Liu Er was cutting off his ears.

Looking at the strange-looking middle-aged scribe in front of him, he shot this person in the buttocks with an arrow in the chaos of the army, and wanted to rush forward to mend the knife, but he didn't expect that this person fell into the pile of corpses, slightly stunned, but he didn't think too much, and the knife in his hand was still gesturing where to start.

"Brave men spare their lives!"

Zhang Yuanfu opened his eyes and shouted, ignoring the pain in his buttocks, and struggled to get up.

"You're Qingren?"

Liu Erhu said suspiciously.

"Zhuangman, I was originally a scholar in Liangzhou, but I was plundered to the Gobi by that shameless barbarian, whipped all day long, suffered a lot, and longed to eat its flesh and sleep on its skin. ”

"Now that I am riding north in Liangzhou, it is a blessing to set foot on the barbarians in one fell swoop, and I am also willing to get out of the sea of bitterness. ”

Zhang Yuanfu hugged Liu Er's thigh and burst into tears, which was very touching.

"Oh?"

Liu Er looked at Zhang Yuanfu's dress and fluent Qingguo official speech, and he shouldn't have been suspicious, but he obviously saw that there were barbarian soldiers guarding him, and some of the second monks were confused for a while.

"Forget it, take it to Uncle Ma. ”

Although Liu Er's brain is not very bright, he is not a stupid person who has not been easily fooled by this Yuanfu, so he pressed people to the big tent for the sake of safety.

"You are Zhang Yuanfu?"

Ma Youliang beside the golden tent slowly crossed his steps and carefully looked at the middle-aged scribe in front of him, stared for a long time, and finally asked in a deep voice.

"General, you're gone. ”

Zhang Yuanfu had cold sweat dripping down his forehead.

"Wandering?"

Ma Youliang took a step closer and stared straight at it, but the latter didn't move for a minute and smiled back.

"Do you want to grab your tongue and confront each other?"

Ma Youliang sneered.

"The general spares his life!"

"The villain is also forced to be helpless......"

When Zhang Yuanfu heard this, he couldn't hold back any longer, hugged Ma Youliang's boots, snorted and cried with tears, his face rubbed against the top of the boots, and there were some water stains, and the latter didn't care, and continued to beg for mercy brainlessly.

Xu Xian looked at the water stains on the man's face and was stunned,

I have never seen such a brazen person.

"You kid is lucky with shit and has done a great job!"

"This man is a barbarian's dog-headed military advisor!"

Ma Youliang patted Liu Er's shoulder and grinned.

"Kobold Commander?"

Liu Er was still reminiscing about the meaning of this sentence, scratching his head, but he asked, "How many taels of silver is it worth?"

"Look at your appearance, the reward is enough for your three wives and four concubines!"

"Uncle Ma, can I marry only one?"

Liu Er stretched out a finger and said weakly.

"Silly boy!"

Ma Youliang scolded with a smile and turned his head to look at Xu Xian.

"Your Highness, do you know that this person joined the barbarian tribe twenty years ago and did a basket of pickled things, I don't know how many innocent people he helped the barbarians, and he was called a scholar in vain......"

Ma Youliang opened his mouth to explain, he has not said that he knows himself or his opponent for so long, but he also knows a little about the inside story of the barbarian tribe, and the wanted portrait of this person has been circulated in the army more than once.

"Zhang Yuanfu, Fan Wencheng?"

Xu Xian whispered, inexplicably overlapping the two names together, in the last life, this person died in the fifth year of Kangxi, Kang Mazi was buried in Hongluo Mountain in Huairou County, and after a long time, Kang Mazi was the handwritten word "Yuanfu Gaofeng".

In his life, he has been the fourth generation of the Qing Dynasty and his three masters, and has made immortal contributions to the Manchurian people in the Central Plains, and he is really a "meritorious and outstanding" generation!

Being a person is more aware of the general situation and taking into account the overall situation,

What should be said, what should be done,

Snorting and swaying in the wind,

Throughout his life, he made the people of the Central Plains miserable,

It has made an indelible contribution to the prosperity of the Qing Dynasty!

"This person, be killed!"

Xu Xian pondered for a moment and then read softly.

"Your Highness, spare your life, the villain is still valuable!"

"The villain has been in the northern barbarians for half his life, and he has a deep understanding of the barbarians, this barbarian is like a weed, and the spring breeze blows and grows, which cannot be killed, and the villain is willing to stay in the northern land for His Royal Highness to shepherd the barbarians. ”

Zhang Yuanfu's face was in a hurry.

"Value?"

"The barbarians will be wiped out, so I won't bother you to shepherd the barbarians. ”

The spring breeze knife is out of the sheath,

"Remember, don't be a traitor in the next life!"

The cold blade slapped Zhang Yuanfu's cheek.

With a slight wave, the head of the good man flies.

I don't know why, inexplicably thinking of that dynasty, there will be a wave of anger rising from my heart.

"The whole army is out and go south!"

Putting away the knife, Xu Xian shouted,

The horses scattered, and the remaining Liangzhou iron horses began to gather,

The iron horsemen galloped and looked south.

"Smack, smack, smack......"

The crisp sound of the whip came from the official roads in all directions, and the two eunuchs were galloping in the direction of Liangzhou on tall horses.

"Grandpa Wei, did you say that Lord Chen accepted the order?"

Accustomed to the gentle spring breeze in the south, he was still slightly uncomfortable when he came to the north, and the little eunuch wrapped his clothes and asked Wei Mingfu on the side.

Wei Mingfu didn't answer, just looked at the various fortresses along the way, and at least Duke Qin's advice was still echoing in his ears when he went out of the capital,

"We're in the third wave. ”

"If Lord Chen hasn't accepted the order, I'm afraid the court will really change generals. ”

The little eunuch was a little apprehensive in his heart.

"Although our family is not familiar with military affairs, we also know that changing the battle will be a great taboo. ”

"I hope so, I hope that Chen Gong can understand the difficulties of the imperial court. ”

Wei Mingfu sighed, the thing in his arms seemed to weigh a thousand catties, in addition to a bright yellow holy decree and a "royal red pen" symbolizing seeing things like faces, there was also a private letter from the Duke of Qin.

"Father-in-law Wei, do you say that His Highness's decision is right or wrong?"

"Shut up!"

"The affairs of the heavenly family are not for us slaves to discuss!"

Wei Mingfu glared at the little eunuch, and the horsewhip was whipped fiercely on the horse's back and galloped in the direction of the big camp.

......

Since a few days ago, after the morning pilgrimage,

Then a holy decree came out of Shangjing.

The first decree was that a big eunuch with a considerable status in the palace rushed to go in person for 800 miles, and Chen Wenzhi actually dragged it on the grounds that the camps were not in the tent, and the old eunuch scolded and scolded outside the tent for a few hours, and his throat was about to smoke, but he still didn't see Chen Wenzhi.

The first wave of heralds has not yet returned to Beijing,

And the second wave of heralds went to the barracks.

The second decree is also a former palm print eunuch with a high status who went in person, with His Majesty's royal gift in his arms, who knows that Chen Wenzhi still closed the big tent and did not come out, how could the old eunuch with the palm print have encountered such a scene, and he was angry and directly killed outside the big tent of the Chinese army.

The blood was splashed all over the curtains.

The brains of the white flowers are shocking.

The third wave of heralds,

That is, I am myself, not long after the palm seal eunuch set off,

That is, when the time of the sea departed from Beijing,

At noon, at noon, at midday,

In one day, three holy decrees came out from Shangjing,

The meaning is self-evident,

There was a few hours of work in between,

I don't know if Lord Chen has accepted the order.

If not, the private message of the Duke of Qin in his arms may be able to play a role, although in the past two days, my heart has been tickling like a cat's paw scratching and I want to know what is written in this letter, but I still can't bear it and don't open it.

Outside the barracks gates,

There was firewood crackling in the brazier,

The flames rose and fell, and they looked up at the watchtower,

There are many soldiers, and the order is clear,

There are soldiers patrolling the camp,

Even at night, there is no slackness.

"Father-in-law Wei, there has been no news from the two fathers-in-law in front of you. ”

"Won't ......"

The little eunuch said tremblingly.

"Smack......

Before the words fell, a bright red slap mark appeared on his face, instantly swollen, and there was blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, and this slap did not have the slightest strength.

"Woe to the mouth!"

Wei Mingfu glared at the little eunuch, who covered his face and didn't dare to say more, but his expression was indeed extremely sad, he entered the palace at the age of twelve as if he was walking on thin ice.

Godfather and godfather recognized a basket before he barely had a row of noodles in the palace, and now he has to go thousands of miles to follow Father-in-law Wei to pass the decree, not to mention that he can't get half of the oil and water, and maybe he will lose his life.

"In accordance with the will of His Majesty, Lord Chen, please report it quickly. ”

After revealing his identity outside the camp, he had a team of armor soldiers accompanying him to the Chinese army, and Wei Mingfu also took a closer look at the way here, each pass was heavily guarded, and the three camps where the army was stationed were laid out in a character layout, which could be attacked and defended, and had its own rules.

All kinds of fortifications outside the camp of the Chinese army are complete, and the camp is even more orderly, there are countless open and secret posts, and Qiu Ba, who is mixed with all walks of life, is not half restless, and no one can stand out from the camp, and Qin Gong's vision is still not half a problem.

"Please wait outside the tent for my father-in-law, and let me report it. ”

"Father-in-law, I'm still tired of waiting for a while. ”

The first lieutenant said with a humble and arrogant attitude, after all, it was Chen Wenzhi who brought the old man from the south to naturally have Chen Wenzhi in mind, and the two holy decrees in front of him were not answered, which had already made the old man around him very worried, after all, this imperial army was different from the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry.

If the imperial court is really determined to charge Chen Wenzhi with disrespect and bullying the monarch, not many people are willing to accompany him to pull the flag and rebel.

"Waiting outside the tent?"

The little eunuch was slightly stunned when he heard this, in the past, no matter where he went, he had to treat himself as an uncle, and he had to be respectful when he sent money, and he had to wait outside the tent to blow a cold wind.

There are thousands of thoughts in my head,

But when the afterglow of his eyes fell on a red blood stain outside the tent curtain, he was instantly silent, and the corpse was naturally tidied up, but the blood stains that penetrated into it were difficult to clean up, and his fingers lightly touched the ground, looking at the milky white gel that was slightly solidified on the nail cover.

"Vomit ......"

"Father-in-law, I haven't looked for food yet......"

The little eunuch bent over and vomited, whimpering and looking at Wei Mingfu with some grievances.

"Father-in-law, I'm tired!"

After speaking, the lieutenant bowed to Wei Mingfu, ignored the little eunuch and walked straight to the big tent.

The atmosphere in the big tent was very solemn, crackling and burning firewood, reflecting Chen Wenzhi's uncertain complexion.

"General, there is another wave of father-in-law who has passed the decree outside the tent. ”

The lieutenant knelt down on one knee to report, but he did not wait for an answer, nor did he get up without permission, so he had to kneel for a short time, and beads of sweat were already on his forehead.

"Get up. ”

Chen Wenzhi was wearing a black fashion and was standing on the edge of the sand table of the Chinese army's big tent, with an inexplicable look in his eyes.

"General Chen, send troops!"

A veteran of the South Road Frontier Army opened his mouth to break the calm in the middle of the battle.

"Lord Chen, let's send troops!"

"Gong Chen, send troops!"

In the midst of the tent, they fell to their knees one after another.

"The imperial court has already issued orders three times, and if you don't accept the order again, I'm afraid everything will be over. ”

The veteran looked up at Chen Wenzhi, and there were faint tears in his eyes.

"How to send troops?"

"Liangzhou 300,000 iron cavalry Chen soldiers are outside, there are less than 80,000 iron cavalry in our army, and the rest are all foot soldiers.

Chen Wenzhi looked at the layout on the sand table and muttered.

"General Chen's 300,000 horses in Liangzhou, of which the three towns are still in the area of Yumen Pass, we only need to face 150,000 iron cavalry, and 500,000 troops against 150,000 iron cavalry have at least one battle strength anyway, right?"

"What's more, the barbarians in the northern Gobi are like mad dogs, once they smell blood, they will inevitably go south, and our side is pressing forward step by step, and then Xu Wu will face a flank attack from the north and south, and there is absolutely no power to return to the sky. ”

The veteran pointed to the Jade Gate Pass in the north and said flatly.

"Besides, there are no troops. ”

"If there is a will from the imperial court, I am afraid that it will be ......"

The veteran wants to speak and stops, but the meaning is already clear.

You don't necessarily lose if you fight, and you will die if you don't fight!

Outside the big tent,

The cold wind blowing in the north at night caused the little eunuch to shiver, he had been standing for a long time, and his calves and stomach began to cramp, but there was still no charter coming out of it.

"Someone!"

Wei Mingfu waited for a long time, and finally shouted.

"I wonder what's going on with my father-in-law?"

Outside the big tent, a soldier stepped forward and bowed.

"There is a private letter here, please give it to Chen Gong!"

Wei Mingfu took out a letter with fire paint from his bosom and handed it to the man, then he stopped talking, it seemed that the situation was in danger now, and he had to let Chen Gong make a decision earlier.

In the Great Tent,

Chen Wenzhi's light letter,

Looking at the familiar handwriting on it, he was slightly stunned.

"Qin Xiang!"

Putting away the letter, Chen Wenzhi's gaze swept over the faces of the kneeling generals, and finally fell on the sand table, shocked and uncertain.

"Hey......"

Chen Wenzhi let out a long sigh.

The letter is not long, but only two sentences,

Victory, if you don't get drunk in Beijing, you won't return, and the old man will greet you for ten miles.

Defeated, to repay the country horse leather shroud, the old man died on the festival of righteousness!

"That's it, just follow what Qin Xiang said!"

"Tomorrow send troops north!"

Chen Wenzhi sighed for a long time, and the whole person seemed to be ten years old, and the twilight between the lines of Qin Xiang's words could be felt thousands of miles away, and he must have made countless efforts, but in the end, it backfired.

Lift the curtain and walk out of the tent.

"Chen Gong!"

Wei Mingfu bowed.

"Well, let's make a decree. ”

Chen Wenzhi opened his mouth and said, and a general behind him also walked out of the big tent and followed him.

The little eunuch beside him played a clever one,

Ben was already determined to die.

Thinking about crashing to death on a pillar outside the big tent,

or hit headlong on the cold knife edge of Nasen,

In the end, which way did not hurt so much, and did not lose the face of the heavenly family, but I didn't think that the person would come out in a blink of an eye.

"The commander of the Northern Expedition, Chen Wenzhi, received the order!"

Wei Mingfu cleared his throat and said.

The bright yellow holy decree was slowly lifted, the red pen of the imperial gift was held in his hand, and the people around him fell to their knees, some people were relieved, some people's hearts were like ashes, and some people looked incomprehensible.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, the edict says!"

......

"Send troops immediately, there must be no mistakes!"

"The announcement is at home and abroad, and the salty envoy knows about it!"

Wei Mingfu closed the holy decree and looked around, inexplicably a little sad.

"Minister, Commander!"

The sound is flat, without a hint of ups and downs.

When Chen Wenzhi took the holy decree and got up,

Wei Mingfu noticed the white hair on his sideburns, slightly sunken eye sockets, and slightly trembling fingertips.

It turns out that Chen Gong is also old......
