Chapter Ninety-Two: What is Elegance?

"General, the enemy army is already in the city, why are you still playing chess with this sour Confucian!"

Before anyone saw it, a loud roar came like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, only to see a tower-like figure striding in, he was nearly a head taller than ordinary people, with big shoulders and round waist, extremely strong, perhaps perennial outside the battle, and his skin was a little dark.

As soon as Shi Qianyi walked behind Xia Xuehan, he cast a contemptuous look at Xie Yuchen, these nerds only knew Zi Shiyun all day long, and when did they see them go to the battlefield to kill an enemy.

"Who should I be, it turned out to be General Shi who was thundering and raining!" Xie Yuchen glanced at him and sneered.

"Hey, you poor scholar, who are the thunder and rain, do you believe ......it or not?" Shi Qianyi was about to rush over to lift his collar, but before his hand touched Xie Yuchen, and before he finished speaking, he suddenly opened his mouth wide, his hand stopped in the air and couldn't move, and he couldn't make a sound in his mouth.

After a closer look, a crystal silver needle was inserted into the dumb point on Shi Qianyi's neck and the soft hemp point on his arm, and the tail of the needle was still shaking slightly.

Xie Yuchen shook the feather fan, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and said jokingly: "To be honest, Xiaosheng really doesn't believe in General Shi much, what's the matter, General Shi is satisfied with Xiaosheng's hand, and can he still enter the eyes of the general?"

Xie Yuchen was a big general, and Shi Qianyi's face was flushed with shame, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to drill down, but today he was carelessly put on by this sour Confucian.

Xia Xuehan glanced at Shi Qianyi out of the corner of her eyes, and said coldly: "Okay, just punish it a little, don't hurt the harmony!"

Xie Yuchen got up, shook a feather fan and circled around Shi Qianyi, shook his head and sighed: "Actually, where can Xiaosheng and General Shi be hurt and angry, General Shi has never been angry with Xiaosheng, so how can he say that he is hurt and angry! That General Shi will be kind to Xiaosheng in the future, and he will be kind and hurt in the future!"

Xia Xuehan didn't seem to hear these words at all, and he didn't raise his eyelids, but Shi Qianyi was different, although his body couldn't move, but his eyes were about to burst into flames, and he couldn't wait to rush up and hug Xie Yuchen and bite off a piece of his meat.

Of course, he just thinks about it, although this sour Confucian is not good at fists and feet, but he can't help but have some skills in medical skills, and he is also very good at silver needles in one hand, and he has never been bargained for in front of him.

Xie Yuchen patted Shi Qianyi's shoulder and shook his hand like an old friend meeting for many years, how sincere and sincere his expression was, if there were people who didn't know the two of them, they would definitely think that they were close friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.

After Shi Qianyi was able to move, he immediately jumped four or five steps away, the farther away from this sour Confucian, the better, if he can't provoke us, just don't provoke him.

Turning his head to Xia Xuehan and said: "General, we have been here for several days, when will we send troops, the group of calves outside the city will show off their strength all day long, or give me two thousand elite soldiers, let me kill their sharpness!"

"I'll give you three thousand!" Xia Xuehan didn't move his eyelids and said coldly.

"Really?"

Shi Qianyi was overjoyed when he heard this, and his big mouth was about to grin to the root of his ears, and he first cast a smug look at Xie Yuchen, who knew that Xie Yuchen had no reaction at all, Shi Qianyi waved his hand and said: "If you don't have three thousand, give me two thousand, and wait for me to twist Xia Yu's head for you!"

After speaking, he was about to go outside, Xia Xue's cold words were mixed with some helplessness, floating from behind him: "I will give you three thousand sergeants, you will obediently patrol the city for me, you don't get my military order, dare to go out without authorization, don't blame the ruthlessness of military law!"

Shi Qianyi's originally smiling face collapsed, turned around and ran to Xia Xuehan's side, and pleaded: "General, why are you ......?"

Xia Xuehan finally turned his face, his eyes revealed a majesty, so that all beings in the world could not be disobeyed, Shi Qianyi shuddered, "Aren't you idle and have nothing to do?" If you don't want to go to patrol the city, then go to the Huotou Army to help cook, choose for yourself!"

"Don't, don't, I'm going to patrol the city!" As soon as Shi Qianyi heard Xia Xuehan say this, where did he dare to argue for half a sentence, and ran outside without looking back.

Only Xia Xuehan, who had a light and breezy face, and Xie Yuchen, who had a smile in his eyes, were left.

"Anyway, I also want to know, when will you send troops?" Xie Yuchen gently shook the feather fan and asked solemnly.

Xia Xuehan turned her head to the door, staring at the outside of the house, and did not answer.

At this time, it is June and July, the weather is the hottest time, a round of sun is like a furnace to scorch the earth, the original green grass and trees can not help but be exposed, a little wilted.

The heart-rending sound was like a dull saw sawing at people's eardrums, making the already upset people more anxious.

"Do you still expect the sun to burn Xia Jun to death?" Xie Yuchen couldn't help but joke when he saw him staring intently outside.

Xia Xuehan just smiled, didn't speak, and set his eyes on the chessboard, his eyes flashed with a brilliance that people didn't dare to look at, and there was a sense of confidence in his body, the kind of confidence that as long as he was willing, he could bury thousands of troops and horses with a raise of his hand.

This kind of self-confidence, this kind of peerless Taoist rhyme, ordinary people tremble in their knees just by looking at it, and they can't help but kneel down and serve him for life.

What is elegance, just one raise your eyes and gaze to clear a thousand armies;

What is the elegance, the whole world is in the hands of the person here;

What is the elegance, I don't see the ancients before, and I don't see the comers after!

Xie Yuchen shook his head with a smile, got up and shook his fan and left.

"Won't you go any further?"

"The ending is in your hands, isn't it boring to continue?"

In July, the blue sky was hung with a fireball-like sun, and the clouds seemed to be baked by the sun and disappeared without a trace. The weather was so hot that even dragonflies dared to fly close to the shade of the trees, for fear that the sun would hurt their wings, but even the leaves of the trees had wilted after more than half a month of continuous exposure.

A gust of wind that finally blew was also mixed with thick heat, and the sweat dripping from his face was evaporated as soon as he fell on the stone slab, leaving not even a single water stain.

The sergeants of Huaxia are stationed in the pass, there is an eaves to cover this cool day, Yangping Pass is built by the mountain, there are a lot of trees in the city, in addition to the sentinels on duty these days, the other people are not so strict, you can rest in the shade, although the weather is hot, the soldiers of Huaxia can barely survive.

But the Great Xia soldiers stationed outside the city were not so comfortable, the weather was dry and dry, in order to prevent the summer snow and cold fire, Xia Yu built the camp tent in the open wilderness.

Tens of thousands of tents were densely exposed to the sun, so hot that the 150,000 army seemed to be steaming in a cage drawer.

In the past few days, people have been fainting from heat stroke, and those who are lucky can wake up after pouring a few mouthfuls of salt water, and those who are unlucky have fallen asleep forever. More than 100,000 sergeants, from generals to soldiers, were listless and lifeless, and if it weren't for the strict military law, they would have thrown down their weapons and gone home.

In Yangping Pass, Xia Xuehan can be regarded as the number one idler, leading the army to Yangping Pass for seven days, except for the first day on the city wall to see the enemy's camp tent from a distance, these days I didn't even ask a word about the military situation.

Every day, he played chess and drank tea, sat at the table and wrote, or he would hold a book and lean against the shade of a tree to read for an hour or two, and he would laugh at how many generals asked him about when he would send troops.

There are many soldiers who slander that where is this generalissimo here to fight, he is clearly here to play.

He never inquired about the military situation, and even when the spies told him the news of the enemy troops outside the city, he just didn't raise his eyelids and let out a "hmm", and then continued to do his own thing, turning a group of fierce generals around.

On the afternoon of the eighth day, a few clouds finally floated in the sky, but it was still very hot, even worse than the previous days, and the king of Langya, who had always been leisurely, finally ordered the generals to gather for a meeting after going around the city under the scorching sun.

When all the generals rushed to the council hall in a hurry, the man who was as dashing as a fairy was sitting on a big chair and drinking tea, dressed in a moon-white robe, floating like a fairy, where it looked like he was going to war, the flames in the hearts of the generals couldn't help but be half extinguished.

"Show the generals tea, on a hot day, you have to drink a bowl of herbal tea to be calm!" Xia Xue didn't raise her head, and ordered the waiter beside her.

When the generals in the council hall looked at the tea in their hands and were at a loss, the elegant and dashing man spoke again: "Generals, don't be polite, take a sip of tea to go to the heat, and the marshal will have something to say later!"

When the generals heard this, their eyes flashed, they were all men who had been fighting on the battlefield all year round, how did they know what elegance was all about, and they drank a fine light as soon as they raised their heads while holding the tea bowl.

Seeing that the soldiers had finished drinking the tea, Xia Xuehan put down the teacup in his hand and said slowly: "Ben Shuai knows that all the generals are loyal to the country and want to go into battle to kill the enemy, but the weather is very hot, and Ben Shuai is worried that the generals will lose half of their prestige by a little mistake." ”

Xia Xuehan deliberately stopped talking, and the generals in the hall looked at him straight one by one, if he hadn't been self-aware, he would have rushed over and lifted Xia Xuehan up.

"But there are still many generals who ask Ben Shuai for orders to go on the expedition, Ben Shuai has thought about it for a long time, and decided to let all the generals move tonight!" Xia Xuehan finished speaking, his eyes drifted over everyone standing there, and their faces showed a look of joy and uncontrollably, if Xia Xuehan was not still sitting in front, he would almost scream.

Xia Xuehan picked up the teacup again and said unhurriedly: "Zhong Liran, after you take three hundred purple feather guards into the night, you will get rid of Xia Yubu's sentinels on the periphery of the barracks one by one, and if you miss one, you will have to come back and be punished." ”

"Yes!" replied the only female general in the chamber.

Although it was a female general, a large group of rough old men present did not dare to despise it, they all knew that this woman was one of the four great generals under Xia Xuehan, the commander of Zi Yuwei, and she would not lose to their group of big men in the slightest when she killed people.

Zhong Li dyed a pair of bright eyes, clear and clear, as bright as stars, the skin is brighter than snow, and the face is beautiful. But she was as cold as frost, with black hair tied back her head, showing a sassy and heroic appearance. A purple soft armor outlined her delicate figure, and she could see that this group of generals who had not seen women for many years swallowed their saliva.

"Yifeng, when Zhong Liran finishes solving those stumbling blocks on the periphery, you will lead five thousand elite soldiers to sneak into the enemy camp with hay and sulfur and other fire-starting objects and set it on fire!" Xia Xuehan took a sip of tea and continued.

"Yes!"

"Qi Henghai, you order 50,000 troops, prepare your clothes, and change your shoes into non-slip shoes that can walk in muddy water, but when you see the fire, you will kill the enemy camp and drive them into the valley of no return, ten miles to the west. Ben Shuai will make a little arrangement in the Valley of No Return, and really let them come and go!" Xia Xuehan seemed to be talking about a trivial matter.

"Yes! but, but the general ......" Although Qi Henghai agreed, he still looked at Xia Xuehan in confusion.

"Is there a problem with General Qi?" Xia Xue didn't raise his eyes, just asked lightly.

"General, it's been sunny for more than half a month, the ground is extremely dry, and there is no sign of rain, general, your ......" Although Qi Henghai was the calmest of the four generals, he still couldn't help but ask at this time.

"Ben Shuai naturally has a reason to do this, the heavenly opportunity must not be revealed, you just do it, and when Ben Shuai returns triumphantly, I will talk to you in detail!" Xia Xuehan did not mean to explain to him, but just dealt with it lightly.

Based on Qi Henghai's unconditional trust in Xia Xuehan, he had to retreat, Xia Xuehan called a few generals to arrange it, and the whole process was like chatting with a group of acquaintances, casually saying one order after another, shaking the teacup in his hand from time to time, and taking a sip.

Orders that seem to be given casually are methodical and seamless.

Watching those generals take orders one by one, Shi Qianyi became more and more nervous, and his hands were about to rub out of the fire, but Xia Xuehan never lit him, put down the teaglass, Xia Xuehan got up and was about to leave.

"General...... This...... That one...... I...... How can I ......" Shi Qianyi has always been straightforward and fast-talking, but at this time, he was spitting and spitting, not knowing what to say.

Xia Xuehan only "suddenly realized" at this time, clapped his palms, and said: "I forgot about you, then defend the city with Ben Shuai, and set up a celebration banquet for them to wait for their triumphant return!"

"But, general......" Shi Qianyi wanted to say something more, but Xia Xuehan had already walked towards him, and when he walked to his side, a sentence floated into his ears like a gust of wind - "There are other tasks for you later, and the time has not yet come, so don't leak it!"

Shi Qianyi relieved himself and wanted to ask, but Xia Xuehan had already left, and only saw a white robe farther and farther away outside the door.
