Chapter 242: Entering Xiangyang City
Xiaolongnu looked at the guards on the city wall, and couldn't help but say: "Guo'er, why is it so troublesome to enter a city?" Yang Guo smiled bitterly: "Now that we Han people are fighting with Mongolia, if the population entry and exit control is not strict, it is easy to mix in with spies, and then the enemy should cooperate with the outside world, wouldn't it be dangerous!"
Yang Guo then shouted to the city wall: "Since the general doesn't believe it, go to Xue Ping, he knows me when he sees this thing." After speaking, Yang Guo took off the jade plate he carried and threw it away, and it fell into the arms of the guard impartially and accurately, and the soldiers who watched were dumbfounded.
The guard who took the jade card looked at Yang Guo again and believed a little, and hurriedly sent a soldier with a token to invite Xue Ping to come here. Although Huang Rong knows his true identity, he may not tell Guo Jing immediately, so he will not be able to tell Guo Jing immediately, so he will not let Yang Guo's identity be exposed to the world too early, after all, a mysterious and unknown identity has self-evident benefits for the development of the firm.
Yang Guo had already revealed all the things in his life to Xiaolongnu, so when she mentioned Zhang Wuji, she was not surprised, anyway, it was just a title, Yang Guo was still Yang Guo.
After a cup of tea, I saw a middle-aged man in brocade robe walking up the city wall and looking down, it was Xue Ping, the head of the commercial house in Xiangyang City, although he hadn't seen Yang for six years, he still looked at it first and confirmed it, and said to the guard: "General Wang, it's my son-in-law who has arrived, please take the trouble to open the city gate." ”
That General Wang is actually just a small deputy general, and he can't be called so, and Xue Ping's sentence "General Wang" happened to call him to his heart, and he immediately waved his hand and asked the soldiers to open the city gate to let Yang Guo in.
Xue Ping thanked him first, and then said goodbye to the city to welcome Yang over.
Yang Guo hugged the little dragon girl, rode the little dragon horse and walked over slowly, looked at Xue Ping and said, "It's been hard for you all these years!"
Hearing the tone of this voice, it is not much different from Yang Guo back then, although he still wears a mask, Xue Ping also believes that he is Yang Guo, after all, this token is the only one in the world, and the owner of the village is in charge, and he can't do it fake, so he immediately bowed down and saluted: "Xue Ping has seen Gongzi! ”
"Haha! We're all old friends, so there's no need to be so restrained. Yang Guo saw that Xue Ping had arranged it so properly, and his eyes were full of appreciation, which was worthy of being Xiao Ju's favorite. Yang Guo took the little dragon girl to find Dugu Sword Tomb in the mountains and forests for nearly a month, in addition to eating some fruits, it is the game from the mountains, although there are some flavors, but how can it be compared to the delicious food made in his own restaurant! Now he just wants to have a good meal, and then sleep beautifully, which is better than anything else.
"Don't dare, don't dare, Childe, please. Xue Ping didn't dare to hold it up, and handed the jade card back to Yang Hou, and then led Yang Guo to Pin Xianju, and met many people along the way, and greeted him one after another, thinking that he was still quite popular in this Xiangyang City.
After walking for a while, Yang Guo asked, "Can Guo Daxia and the Huang Gang Leader go back to Xiangyang?"
"Yu Gongzi, since three years ago Guo Daxia with his wife and children left he has not returned to Xiangyang, saying that he wants to return to his hometown to rest for a period of time, fortunately, the Mongolian soldiers changed their commanders in front of the battle, which greatly affected the morale, usually come to the city to attack the city is just a little trouble, come to the city to listen to the truth, so there is no need for him and his wife to rush back, but recently the Mongolian soldiers have made a lot of moves, I am afraid that it will not be long before I am afraid that they will really attack Xiangyang. ”
Nodding, Yang Guo already knew in his heart, it was estimated that the news would soon reach Huang Rong's ears, so the two of them would hold a hero conference in Lujiazhuang in Dashengguan next year to discuss how to defend Xiangyang and resist the Mongols.
After entering the Pinxian Residence, Yang Guo took off the mask, because Xue Ping cleared the entire Pinxian Residence after receiving the jade card, in order to ensure that Yang Guo had a quiet and comfortable rest environment, Yang Guo was very satisfied, and for the first time found that he underestimated the steward of the battle city of Xiangyang, you must know that the people who can usually enter the Pinxian Residence are either rich or expensive, and there are famous players in the rivers and lakes, this Xue Ping can clear the scene, and not offend these, which shows his strong ability.
At this time, Xue Ping was also able to see Yang Guo's appearance clearly, his slightly young and handsome face, and he could vaguely see the outline of his childhood, and he had confirmed in his heart that there was no doubt about the deity.
As the two of them took their seats, Xue Ping stood aside and waited, Yang Guo looked at the ten twists, and asked him to sit down together, Xue Ping naturally refused, but Yang Guo's attitude insisted, and he could sit down, watching Yang Yang Guo gobble up the dishes, but he just drank the tea in the cup, and did not move the chopsticks at all.
Yang Guo didn't force him to eat, as long as he didn't stand, after all, being waited to eat made him quite uncomfortable. After eating a half-full, Yang Guo began to inquire about the situation in Xiangyang, to say that the Mongolian Han Meng Ge did not have to worry about this, but this Kublai Khan still needs to be treated with caution, even if he can't take Xiangyang for a while, who can guarantee that he will not think of some strategies to lose Xiangyang's troops, this Xiangyang is hard in terms of troops, although there are many Han people, but there are very few who can handle the soldiers and dare to fight with the Mongols, plus the Song court is incompetent, it is really difficult to expect them to quickly expand their forces.
"Yu Gongzi, since Kublai Khan, the fourth prince of Mongolia, took over the Mongolian soldiers and horses, there has been no big move, only occasionally sent some Mongolian spies to the city to spy on the military situation, and they were all found out and taken by us!" Xue Ping said truthfully.
Yang Guo nodded slightly, feeling in his heart that this Kublai Khan was too cautious, this was under so much pressure that he did not dare to send troops to attack Xiangyang, fortunately, the news that Guo Jing and Huang Rong were not in Xiangyang City was not leaked, otherwise I don't know if he could still sit in the king's tent and act cautiously.
"By the way, the people I invited have arrived in Xiangyang?" Yang Guo suddenly thought of the old man and Ma Guangzuo he met at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain that day, calculating the time, the two should have arrived a long time ago, why haven't they seen anyone until now.
Sure enough, it was the person invited by the son, and the subordinates did not dare to slack off, so they specially prepared a spacious small residence in the backyard for the two of them. Xue Ping is still very measured, and being able to report Yang Guo's real name is enough to prove that what he said is not a lie.
