"Your Majesty Liang Youda, please see Commander Zhong!"
The new magistrate of Mianzhou City knelt down outside and asked for an audience. Beside him were officials from Mianzhou City.
This scene seems a bit unbelievable. The civil servants of Qian Kingdom often automatically upgrade to three levels when facing military commanders. Even when facing military commanders with a higher grade than themselves, they often look down upon them. Gu.
It’s just that the old Xianggong Zhong who is in the government office at this time is a special case. Zhong Wendao, who has passed the age of ears, can be said to be a living fossil in the Qiang world, and the Zhong family guards the southwest for Daqian. It has been nearly a hundred years.
Zhong Wendao's influence can no longer be described simply as "military general".
Faced with the Mianzhou magistrate’s request for an audience, Zhong Wendao just took the towel from the soldier inside the door and wiped his face without paying attention.
He didn't bother to pay attention, and he didn't bother to pay attention.
"Ahem..."
After a while, Zhong Wendao sat down on the chair, waved his hand, and motioned to the soldiers to move the brazier in front of him.
The winter in the north is bitter and cold, unlike the heat and humidity in the southwest, but Mr. Zhong is old and doesn't like the heat of the charcoal basin.
"Bring them here."
The ones brought up were not the Mianzhou city officials who were outside asking for an audience, but Meng Gong who walked in from the side hall.
Meng Gong’s hair was a little messy and his eyes were a little dazed. However, after seeing Zhong Wendao sitting at the head of the table, he immediately knelt down and said:
"The guilty general Meng Gong, see Zhong Shuai!"
"Get up, cough..."
Zhong Xianggong started coughing again. He really hates the climate in the north. .
But there was nothing to do. In the past, I only knew that the armaments on the three sides were very weak, but at least half of the imperial military expenditures were consumed every year. Zhong Xianggong thought that even if they were weak, they could still raise some. Looks like it?
Who would have thought that Lieutenant Yang’s letter and the reactions of the princes in the court made Zhong Wendao a little surprised. The three sides that eat up more than half of the military expenditure every year have become so ridiculous?
It’s easy to say that you can’t stop the Yan people from moving the Zhenbei Army from the desert. The Yan people’s Zhenbei Army has not yet moved south, and only the Jingnan Army has been dispatched once. That's all, but it has already scared Taiwei Yang out of his wits.
Tsk, tsk...
It is impossible to say that Zhong Wendao is not angry at all. If those military expenditures could be used to support his own Western Army, his sons would be able to live a better life. If you are more comfortable, you will naturally be able to attack those restless toasts more quickly. Even after a few years of operation, it is not impossible to completely eliminate the southwestern toasts.
Of course, Zhong Wendao could only keep these thoughts in his mind. A few years ago, the imperial court had begun to disintegrate and suppress the Western Army, a military group. However, the Western Army Although he was not from the Zhong family, the warlords of the Western Army were actually closely surrounding the Zhong family. Only the Zhong family followed suit, which made the courtTing's methods failed to achieve much real results.
This time the Yan people are about to go south, which can be regarded as helping the Western Army to relieve the siege.
As a general, Zhong Wendao would really rather face the enemy's swords, guns and soldiers than waste his brains with the princes in the court.
"Guilty general? What are you guilty of?"
"This..."
Meng Gong didn't know what to say.
"Mianzhou City was defended, you have done meritorious service."
Meng Gong kowtowed again and said:
"Thank you, Commander Zhong, for your protection."
Meng Gong kowtowed again. p>
At this time of year, Zhong Wendao is qualified to characterize this matter.
Of course, although when the Western Army arrived, there were actually people fighting among themselves in Mianzhou City, the city failed to let the Yan people in after all.
"It's hard for you." Zhong Wendao said with emotion.
"I will not dare."
Meng Gong lowered his head.
Looking at Meng Gong, Zhong Wendao couldn't help but think of Meng Gong's father, and then he thought of the time when he and Meng Gong's father stood together beside Mr. Thorny.
It’s a pity that it’s all gone.
At this time, a soldier came in and whispered beside Zhong Wendao.
Zhong Wendao's eyes narrowed slightly, and
said:
"Sign up the whole city and search it for me."
"Yes. "
The soldiers went out.
Zhong Wendao sighed and said:
"Prince Fu, he is dead."
"..." Meng Gong.
"The body was found in the stable, but the head was missing."
"This, how is this possible?"
"It should be Youyan It was done by spies who sneaked into the city."
"Prince Fu, Prince Fu is a good prince."
"Huh." Zhong Wendao said unconcernedly, "What I am worried about is if. If it was really done by the Yan people, then even if the Yan people failed to attack Mianzhou City this time, King Fu’s head would have even greater impact than if they invaded Mianzhou City again.”
Meng Gong lowered his head and said nothing.
"That's all, that's all. Since King Fu is dead, you, Meng Gong, should also be dead."
"General, obey your orders."
Said Then, Meng Gong stood up, ready to take the sword from the soldiers and kill himself.
This scene all fell into Zhong Wendao's eyes, and he said again:
"Let's call him Zhong Gong from now on."
Meng Gong was stunned. Lived.
"Let's take advantage of your father first. When this war is over, based on your merits, we will erase this section and you can call Meng Gong back."
This It is the simplest method and can save a lot of hassle.
"Thank you, Commander Zhong!"
Meng Gong knelt down again.
“Did you know that the people who led the troops to attack the city this time were, who is it? ”
“I don’t know the end. "
"The pillar outside the door says, Zheng Fan, guarding Cuiliu Fort. ”
“Is it Zheng Fan again? ”
“This is the addiction to Mianzhou City. ”
What Zheng Shoubei didn’t know was that the last time he broke into Mianzhou City, cut off the heads of many officials and left a message, this was not just because of the incident in "Chahe Village" He took the blame, and his deeds this time were secretly circulated to the desks of various military bosses.
It can be regarded as... becoming famous in the enemy country.
“This guy’s methods are very weird. Meng Gong could only reply, "And the soldiers are very powerful." "
"Please tell me in detail. "
"Follow your orders. ”
Meng Gong talked about everything from the attack on the Yan people rushing through the door to the last moment when Mrs. Daxi suddenly went crazy and caused internal strife between the local soldiers and the soldiers in the city.
Zhong Wendao has always been a good person. He listened with squinted eyes, sitting there motionless, as if he was about to fall asleep.
After Meng Gong finished speaking, Zhong Wendao opened his eyes and said:
"Cuiliu Fort is the Yan people's fortress? ”
“It should be. "
"Listening to what you said, Zheng Fan from Yan is quite a figure. He attacked Mianzhou City twice. He succeeded the first time and almost succeeded the second time. He can still do it. He can judge the situation and know the situation, and he will be able to combine the right and wrong. "
Speaking, Zhong Wendao looked at his own soldiers and said:
"Go and inform the Silver Armored Guards tomorrow that I want the details of Zheng Fan. By the way, send another cavalry to meet Tianlang. "
Speaking,
Zhong Wendao rubbed the center of his brow again,
said:
"I'm tired, let's rest. ”
“Commander, the bedroom has been decorated. ”
“Well, Meng Gong. ”
“The end will be here. "
"You are tired too. Change your clothes. From now on, you will be my personal soldier and help me plan. Later, someone will take you to show you the defense plan. I want to see how much of your father's legacy you will inherit. ”
“The final general will definitely live up to the commander’s expectations. ”
“Yeah. "
Zhong Wendao walked into the back bedroom with the support of his soldiers.
"Commander, the words on the pillar will be erased later. "
"What are you doing? Didn't the person who was wiped out last time still come? Keep it and let the civil and military personnel who come in and out watch it, know your shame and then be brave. "
"I understand, my subordinates. Also, Marshal, do you want the Silver Armored Guard to hand over a note to the superiors first? "
"What? ”
Those who can serve as soldiers around Zhong Wendao are just like the servants of the Li family. They are basically the children of the family or the children of the Western Army, so they can speak more freely to Zhong Wendao in private. After all, Zhong Wendao is their elder.
“Commander, it is easy for him to commit taboos."
"Breaking a taboo? Is this commander here to fight or just talk nonsense? Emperor Yan can give all the secret agents of Yinlang County to Tian Wujing, why can't I, Zhong Wendao, use this silver-armored guard? "
"The Silver Armor Guard may not reply. "
"Haha, then tell them that I always like to sacrifice the flag before a war. This time I came in a hurry and didn't bring the death row prisoners. ”
“I obey my orders. "
"Mianzhou has a good boundary, so all the Western Army units behind it can camp and set up defenses near Mianzhou City. "
"I obey, Commander, the prefect of Mianzhou is still kneeling outside. "
"From now on, Mianzhou City will no longer need a prefect. ”
…………
When the cavalry of Cuiliu Fort returned to the fort, it was already daylight. After a night of raiding, the results were rich. Of course, they were tired, but after taking off their armor, they During lunch, the soldiers were still very excited.
“The first level will be registered and counted, and then loaded into the truck. I will personally send them to Nanwang City tomorrow. ”
Zheng Fan returned to the room by himself after giving simple instructions. According to his habit, when the troops came back, there would already be a young lady who had boiled hot water for the master to take a bath.
Sitting in the tub, Zheng Fan squinted his eyes comfortably. The feeling of relief after being soaked in hot water after a day of exhaustion was simply indescribable.
At this time, Girl Yun opened the door and walked in, saying:
"Master, Fourth Grandma said that she would suture the wounds of some injured soldiers, so let me take care of your bathing first. ”
Zheng Fan nodded.
Yun Yatou began to rub Zheng Fan’s back.
Zheng Fan remembered the first time he saw him after waking up from this world. What I saw was this Girl Yun. It’s been almost a year since she turned 18. Girl Yun doesn’t look as immature as before.
Zheng Fan’s daily life has been like this for a lot of time. With Siniang in charge, there is no need for outsiders to take care of her, so it is indeed difficult to get in touch with Yun Yatou on weekdays.
Now, she is responsible for taking care of those little ladies.
Finished. After taking a bath, Zheng Fan put on the leopard skin pajamas he got from the Hyena Gang and lay down on the bed with Girl Yun taking care of him.
Girl Yun knelt down beside the bed and poured water for Zheng Fan. , looked at Zheng Fan and said:
"Master, do you need someone to accompany you? "
"I'm tired. ”
“Yes, Master. ”
Yun Yatou exited the room knowingly.
Zheng Fan had a smile on his lips. Although he didn’t intend to eat, there was a little girl who planned to recommend herself to the pillow mat. This feeling It's actually quite good.
There are actually quite a few men who can control their lower bodies, but there are very few who can purify their inner desires. In fact, even women, when they see a handsome guy or a high-quality uncle, , and also have the urge to lick the screen.
Zheng Fan closed his eyes. He was really tired. He had to go to Nanwang City to settle the matter tomorrow.His military exploits are probably another thought, so just sleep on the line.
While he was drowsily asleep, Zheng Fan seemed to hear the door of the room being pushed open, and soon, a plump body got into his bed.
The familiar body fragrance, the familiar curve, the familiar feeling.
Zheng Fan never thought that he was a sister-controller before, but when he was with Siniang, he really enjoyed this feeling.
I didn’t do anything, I just held her like this. It wasn’t very innocent, but it was very beautiful.
This sleep was very comfortable.
When he woke up, Siniang had already gotten up before him and was sitting by the bed knitting clothes.
Zheng Fan opened his eyes and looked at Siniang. In his previous life, his parents’ marriage broke up early, but there was no such scene in his memory. When you woke up, your mother was sitting next to you, knitting. sweater.
Although it is a bit weird to put Si Niang into the perspective of his "mother".
But in this fortress, those with normal spirits are rare animals.
Siniang saw that Zheng Fan had woken up and saw that Zheng Fan was silent, so she stopped talking and silently did what she was doing.
This silent atmosphere seemed to last for almost an hour before Zheng Fan stretched out and asked:
"What time is it, Si Niang."
"I guess it's almost dawn."
"Well, let me get up and wash up."
Get out of bed, get dressed, wash up, after washing up, Si Niang has also brought the food in.
White porridge with pickles, simple yet exquisite.
Zheng Fan picked up a salted duck egg and peeled it while asking:
"The blind man hasn't woken up yet?"
"I'll probably be in a coma for a few days. "Six Niang said.
"Yes."
The blind man's control of Mrs. Da Xi was actually successful, but the timely appearance of the army prevented Zheng Fan from entering the city.
At this time, A Ming came over. Although A Ming received a lot of arrows yesterday, it might be because he drank a lot of "water", so his complexion looked pretty good.
"My lord, the heads have been counted and loaded onto the truck."
It is not an easy task to count the heads. It is not a problem to be afraid of such things. , the key is the identification and distribution of heads, because some sentry riders have sacrificed a lot for the group, so they must also allocate part of the heads to compensate.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
“My lord, please eat slowly. I’m going to rest. Call me when you plan to go to Nanwang City.”
< p>"Okay."A Ming wore a bulging water bag around his waist and went to his room to find a coffin. Some people like the feeling of drinking coffee in Starbucks. A Ming likes to lie in the coffin and "anemia" ".
"My lord, San'er hasn't come back yet." Siniang said.
"He should be fine." Zheng Fan said.
Zheng Fan isBelieve in Xue San's ability to protect his life.
"Even if something happened, it would probably have happened a long time ago. We have to express our condolences."
"That's right."
Zheng Fan nodded.
Scraping the last bit of porridge from the bottom of the bowl into his mouth, Zheng Fan clapped his hands and said:
"This time I went out and gained a lot. It's time to go knock it again. Xu Wenzu was ripped off."
The Clan Punishment Soldier is really useful. With a real head harvest, Xu Wenzu can be more calm and tough when opening a backdoor for himself. Zheng Fan is also looking forward to being able to do it again. Expand the army.
Furthermore, the attraction of your own Cuiliu Fort to those elite soldiers will also be greatly enhanced.
There is no need to worry about military morale or anything else.
"What is A Cheng busy with now?"
"Go back to the Lord, he is busy appeasing the Huo family."
"Oh, yes "Yeah."
Zheng Fan nodded.
Huo Guang died in the battle, and the Huo family was suddenly leaderless. It was only right that Liang Cheng went to comfort him now.
The biggest problem with the clan soldiers is that they have a strong sense of clan, and Zheng Fan doesn’t like having too many mountains under his control.
When the sun came out and it was almost nine o'clock, Zheng Fan called out to A Ming. Xiao Yibo led his men and drove the trucks to get ready.
Zheng Fan mounted his horse and took a deep breath. Although the sun had come out, the temperature in the air was still as distant as a person thousands of miles away.
Looking back at the heads behind him, Zheng Fan suddenly felt like he had when he was playing Farm Animals in his previous life, as if what the cart was pulling was not heads, but corns. and flowers.
I seem to be farming. This time, I am taking my crops to Nanwang City for sale.
What the barbarian soldiers under their command want is the Yan household registration, and what the noble soldiers want is the freedom of family members. What they can gain is probably official positions and more resources.
Whether he will rule the world, whether he will take the path of being superior to others, and what he will do after he does so, Zheng Fan has really not thought about it carefully.
But he likes the feeling of struggle and gain very much. This process can already bring people a great sense of satisfaction.
"Sir, shall we set off?" A Ming asked.
Zheng Fan nodded, the morning sun shone on his face, he raised the hand holding the riding crop,
ordered:
"Let's go!"
......
Several Western Army soldiers have gathered outside Mianzhou City. They began to build a camp with Mianzhou City as the center. Everything seemed orderly. This was a strong military atmosphere that had not been seen on the three sides of the Qian Kingdom for a long time.
In the magistrate's office in Mianzhou City, Zhong Wendao was already awake. Older people naturally have shorter sleep time.
Have breakfastAt that time, some soldiers came to report.
Zhong Wendao nodded and said:
"Reply to Lieutenant Yang, I will wait for him in Mianzhou City tomorrow."
Accompanied by various armies With the arrival of the army, it is natural that the talking heads of various armies need to meet for a meeting.
By choosing Mianzhou City as the place to meet, Taiwei Yang actually took the initiative to put down his arrogance and recognized Zhong Wendao's leadership role among many branches of the army.
On major issues of right and wrong, this eunuch has always been able to see clearly.
Putting down his chopsticks, Zhong Wendao asked the soldiers beside him:
"Where is Tianlang?"
"Go back to the commander-in-chief, the young general is probably still here" He was resting. It was already very late when he came back last night. "Rest, can he rest?"
"This..."
"This boy, I can't ask for cavalry from his uncles now, haha.
That's all, I will transfer a thousand cavalry from my direct battalion to him. Since he is going to cause trouble, he can't be too petty. He is a Yan man. You can come, but I can’t go with you?
It’s rude to come and not return!”

Thank you for the inspiration of Yin Tian.
The neighbor upstairs is renovating, and the electric drill has been ringing all day long, which makes Long, a person with a disrupted daily routine, miserable. This chapter is not very satisfying, so I posted it first.
The next chapter may be quite late, so I will try to write more, maybe at two o'clock in the morning.
