Volume 2: Sword Cangyun Mountain Chapter 80: Mid-Autumn Festival
It is a traditional culture to be polite during the festival, so Cangyun Mountain received a big gift on this day - Jiang Yao, who was tortured, was sent up the mountain by two old men.
This is not only a great gift, but also a favor, it is from the general in the west to the general of the pillar country in the north, and it is also a good relationship with the Cangyun Sword Sect, after all, these two families can be regarded as the emperor's heart.
Zheng Yonglun, who had made great contributions in the Western Regions, struggled for a long time before he could resist the idea of avenging the thousand soldiers and slashing Jiang Yao with a thousand knives.
That's a whole thousand people, it's not child's play, but this guy should never want to kill Mo in the air, the Cangyun Sword Sect has already issued a hunt and kill order, so he has to appease the excitement of his subordinates in another way, in exchange for greater benefits.
After all, the emperor's center of gravity is in the north, and when the army goes out of the Ukrainian League, there must be an earth-shattering war, and this once-in-a-century opportunity to make war exploits is not a fool's want!
His choice was correct, which laid the foundation for him to become the second hero of the Eastern Zhao Empire many years later.
The soldiers who survived in Xima Mountain, no matter good or bad, as long as they were willing to stay in the army, were promoted to the first level, and those who died in battle were given double their pensions, and even if they were injured or disabled, they were all subsidized by three times the military salary, which continued every year.
Among them, there is a small soldier with a broken arm stayed, his name is Liu Chongjing, who was the chief before, and now he is promoted to the captain of the pro-soldiers, just because of his sentence: "The brothers are dead, I still have a breath, I should not give up halfway, their dream is to fight on the battlefield and make meritorious deeds, I still have a hand, I should fight for them." "That year, he was seventeen years old, and he was categorical in front of the generals.
Zheng Yonglun admired his courage and determination very much, and after inquiring about his life experience, he wanted him to retire from the army, but he resolutely refused.
No one would have thought that many years later, an iron-blooded and severed arm general would also start his career here.
In any case, Jiang Yao was sent to Cangyun Mountain, Zheng Yonglun's sincerity was full, Han Chengfeng received the two old men who sent them over, and set up a banquet to treat them, and the two old men were extremely happy.
Although this errand is hard, the Shanwen Sect and the Junwu Sect, the two sects at the end of the third rank, can be regarded as having a relationship with the world's number one giant, and they have also formed a good relationship with the Zhuguo General's Mansion, which shows that their status in the rivers and lakes will rise very quickly in the future.
Both of them are old, and they have worked hard all their lives to keep their position in the third-class sect, and it is difficult to go further.
But they didn't expect that they themselves would secretly sigh that they had done their best in this life, but the gospel came from heaven, they first had to thank Jiang Yao, the outlaw, and secondly, they were also grateful for the generous support of the Allure Knife, and this credit was earned by them.
As the saying goes, "children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren", they do not agree, it is obvious that the person who said this sentence is standing and talking without backache, the big sect has many talents, abundant resources, and a remarkable position in the rivers and lakes, so it is natural to say heroically that they do not seek the well-being of future generations, but they can't do it, and they finally become the realm of the grandmaster, but the door is not green, and there is no successor!
Seeing a genius popping up here on the rivers and lakes, and a prodigy there, they were also anxious, why didn't they have these endless rivalry in their own door.
Although the sect has only been inherited for two hundred years, it is necessary to carry forward this follow-up, and do not make more preparations, how to gain a foothold in this powerful and powerful rivers and lakes, where is not the weak and the strong, therefore, this trip to Cangyun Mountain and rivers and lakes chased and killed, the two of them became a laughing stock, and they were scolded by countless people for grabbing credit from the descendants of the rivers and lakes, and they were shameless.
However, this infamy is nothing compared to the great cause of the sect, and the two of them simply gave up this old face to earn a chance.
Allure naturally understands their hard work, so he gives them this credit, and the two are grateful for it.
Han Chengfeng has never liked the red tape of ushering in the send-off, he is uncomfortable, he is sloppy, so he doesn't like to deal with people.
But it is obvious that these two people can enter Han Chengfeng's small courtyard, which proves that they have won his favor, and the two are flattered.
And Jiang Yao was locked up in the cave next to the sword pool, guessing his fate alone.
Mo Lingkong led the old woman up the mountain, along the way to appreciate the beautiful scenery of the nineteen peaks, in the past only looked up at the bottom of the mountain, now immersive, the old man was surprised to close his mouth, saw an ancient tree, a strange stone, a monkey, a crane, all have to stop and look up, see enough before stepping, all the way up, not much faster than the speed of a snail.
Tsing Yi kept a distance behind her, and her heart was always pounding, what the hell was Mo Lingkong's idea, she couldn't understand it at all now.
But she thought to herself: "If he can really connect his cousin to the General's Mansion at that time, then for the sake of his cousin's face, let him go, and when the time comes, he will take Su Yun Sword away from the rivers and lakes!"
Cangyun Mountain has begun to arrange the Mid-Autumn Festival, the festive red lanterns are hung high, the long queue of vegetables and vegetables is also climbing the mountain road, the mountain is very lively, the air has been filled with the aroma of wine, and the unique fragrance of the moon cakes, it seems that this year there are senior sisters to show their skills, baking moon cakes.
The old woman likes to be lively, and she is even more amazed that this fairy mansion is also so full of fireworks, and the originally nervous and awe-inspiring heart gradually calms down.
Finally came to Guanyuntai and saw that there were many white cranes standing on the ground, so the old man sat down and planned to stay for a while.
The mischievous golden monkey jumped up and down, chasing the happy white cranes, and the white cranes were also very patient, and they fell together to tease these naughty guys.
Yun Qing walked down the mountain, saw Mo Lingkong, and was overjoyed: "Uncle Shi just said to look for you, junior brother, it's good that you come back by yourself!"
Mo Lingkong patted him on the shoulder and said, "Is something wrong?"
"It's not a big deal, Jiang Yao, who assassinated you in Yingxue Lake before, was sent up the mountain!"
"Oh, but those two old men sent it by themselves?"
"Naturally, otherwise who is more capable than them!"
"I still owe this favor to me, and since it is their creation, then it is not bothersome for me to say a few words. ”
"It's not exactly, junior brother Chrysostom. ”
"Senior brother, you see that you are so young, how can you learn to be sarcastic?"
"How can the junior brother talk to the senior brother?"
"Senior brother, is there anything else, if it's okay, how about arranging a room for me?"
Yun Qing saw that the old woman beside Mo Lingkong was a little raw, and she was not a rich and noble family, but the relationship with her junior brother was obviously not ordinary, looking at Mo Lingkong, there was some advice in her eyes.
Mo Lingkong ha: "Senior brother, this mother-in-law has to live in the mountains for a few days!"
Yunqing let out an "oh" and went back to the mountain.
In fact, these things didn't bother him originally, but on this mountain, it is still the master in charge who has the final say, and Yunqing can be regarded as handing over a letter, after all, there is no reason not to let the host know about inviting guests up the mountain.
It's just that Mu Chengqing personally came to Guanyuntai to pick up the old man up the mountain, and Mo Lingkong was surprised, and the old woman was even more flattered, seeing the smiling immortal who regarded herself as a junior, she felt like a dream, and she stammered when she spoke excitedly.
Mu Chengqing was kind enough to ask about the old woman's food and clothing, who was at home, how was her body, and the old woman's excited heart calmed down, and she spoke smoothly, and Mu Cheng's hearty laughter was a wonderful story.
The old woman roughly talked about all the interesting things in her life, and there is no second wife in the world for this kind of opportunity.
Mo Lingkong and Tsing Yi followed behind them and fought all the way.
......
Some people are celebrating the festival, and some people are passing the robbery, not to mention Jiang Yao, who can't see the light of day now, but Song Wenxi and his party on the march, there is no festival atmosphere at all.
Camped along the Dadu River, on the other side of the river is the Zhao State, 30,000 infantry, 2,000 cavalry, all of which have to be crossed by boat, and the fishing boats along the coast are naturally requisitioned.
In order to surprise them, the whereabouts of the army were well hidden, and at this moment, the joyful atmosphere on the other side of the river could be transmitted to this side through the roar of the river.
Song Wenxi, dressed in civilian clothes, led Ba Great Wall and Xiangyun, and was inspecting the fishing boats collected in the past two days, which were basically small fishing boats, and each boat could carry about ten people at most.
Ba Changcheng instructed the clerk to report the number of boats, and a middle-aged civil official hurriedly ran over to report: "Marshal Qiyu, a total of 358 fishing boats have been requisitioned this time, each of which can carry 11 people, 30,000 infantry of our army, eight times to cross the river, plus 2,000 cavalry, and two more trips, the average time to cross the river is two quarters of an hour, which is calculated to be two and a half hours!"
Song Wenxi said: "It's too long, if you want to cross the river quietly, at least after the time, there is an early sentry in Hancheng, and if you are not careful, you will be exposed!"
Ba Changcheng said: "Can this river crossing time be faster?"
The clerk said: "The river is too wide, and the current is fast, no matter how fast it is, it will take a quarter and a half hours, and the war horse is heavy, and it can't be fast!"
Song Wenxi Zou Mei: "Have all the fishing boats along this coast been requisitioned?"
The clerk nodded: "It's basically here, it's just that the Ma family in the east and the Zhang family in the west of the village have big boats, but people don't buy it, if the six big boats can be used by me, then I can cross the river in one hour!"
Song Wenxi said: "What is the origin of these two?"
The clerk said: "The local giants are all big families, with deep roots, the imperial court and the rivers and lakes have power, and they also control the business on both sides of the strait, and I heard that they also smuggle salt and iron silk?"
Xiangyun on the side was furious at first, and then said with a happy eyebrow: "In this way, God really helps me, these two are good people, and they can solve the urgent need the most!"
Song Wenxi turned his head and looked puzzled: "We can't go and rob it, right?"
Xiangyun said firmly: "It's just to rob it!"
So, on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, these two local snakes suffered a disaster, people died for money, birds died for food, and they also paid the price for their arrogance......
