Since the news came in the early morning that Master Wang had appeared nearby, the people and dignitaries in Chuzhou City had been eagerly anticipating the result.
After the main force of the Zhenbei Army left the city, everyone was more like a giraffe, twisting their necks to see as soon as possible which troops and horses under which banner would come back.
Perhaps, for ordinary people, their lives will not be greatly affected, because the Yan people are different from the rumored barbarians who like to kill and eat human flesh.
The Yan people also distributed food, a lot of it.
The people's concept is actually very simple. If you are good to me, I will feel good to you, whether it is an appeasement policy or superficiality.
However, for the powerful officials in Chuzhou City, the impact is much greater. If something goes wrong, their wealth and life will be affected.
Finally, before the necks of the whole city were broken,
a troop of soldiers and horses
came back.
When I saw the knights riding war horses entering the city,
A feeling of depression began to slowly spread in Chuzhou City. Going out,
accompanied by the sound of horse hooves from the knights of the Zhenbei Army,
it seemed as if everything was being stepped firmly into the bottom of the valley.
The blind man stood on the street, and behind him stood Yuexin, whom he had just brought out from the Wen family.
Yue Xin still supported the blind man's arm. She really regarded the blind man as a blind man.
When the knights of the Suppression Army passed in front of them,
the blind man clearly felt that the woman beside him began to tremble slightly.
No matter how smart a woman is, It is natural to feel fear when facing this group of tiger warriors who have just come off the battlefield.
Especially this is the enemy’s army.
There are still unwiped blood stains on the armor of the Zhenbei Army knights, and almost everyone has their heads hanging next to their saddles.
The head is a symbol of military merit. It is a "bad habit" that has been passed down from barbaric times, but it is still used.
Because war is not a gentle thing.
The smell of blood began to gradually spread out, and the majestic and terrifying pressure was once again firmly pressed on the entire Chuzhou City.
The mighty knights,
the ferocious heads,
and the battle flags belonging to the Qianjun,
p>
Everything tells the outcome of this war.
Master Wang,
Qianjun,
defeated!
The cadres in Chuzhou City did not know that this cadre army was just passing by.
They took it for granted that the royal division was sent by the imperial court to regain Chuzhou. .
Master Wang is here. Master Wang’s head is hung on the saddle. Master Wang’s flag is dragged on the ground like a broom sweeping the streets.
Even a commoner who doesn't know much about military affairs can clearly see that Ganjun was defeated, and defeated miserably.
Yan Jun seemed to have gone out for a walk around the city, hunted, and returned with a full load.
The sound of horse hooves continued to hit the blue brick street, like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of everyone in the city.
A kind of belief, an emotion, a very simple and innate thing, is being torn apart with one scissor after another.
The blind man reached out, patted the woman's hand and said;
"Don't be afraid."
The woman bit her lip lightly and said:
< p>"Not afraid."The woman is afraid, but her fear is not that complicated, because strictly speaking, she is already half Yan.
At this time,
Zheng Fan passed by on horseback and noticed the blind man. The blind man had obviously noticed his master a long time ago.
Liang Cheng also saw the blind man, and then looked at the woman holding the blind man's arm.
The two of them stopped and rode their horses to the blind man on the street corner.
“Kowtow and call Master.”
The woman was obedient and knelt down in front of Zheng Fan on the street.
She is very smart, because Liang Cheng is standing behind Zheng Fan, so she can tell at the first glance who is the master in her husband's eyes.
"Master."
Yue Xin's voice was very clear.
Zheng Fan’s face is full of question marks?
"What's going on?" Zheng Fan asked.
"Thanks to the Lord, I just got married."
"Uh..."
I'm going out to fight, so you can Did you take your wife home?
Although there are still many, many doubts in my mind, the young lady has already bowed to you, so it is naturally impossible for the Lord Zheng Fan to say nothing.
Zheng Fan reached out and took out a jade pendant from his arms, bent down and handed it to the woman kneeling beside his horse,
"Don't dislike it as a meeting gift."
< p> Yuexin raised her head and took the jade pendant. As a wealthy family, she was well-informed. After seeing the jade pendant, a look of surprise appeared on her face."Why, do you recognize this jade?"
Zheng Fan's words were sophisticated.
In fact, he didn’t know him at all.
"Replying to the owner, this is the greenery of the East China Sea. It is said that it can only be found by chance on the islands in the East China Sea. It is rare and precious. Such a big greenery of the East China Sea, I...I..."
Yue Xin wanted to say it was too expensive, but she hesitated and said:
"Thank you master for the reward."
"Here you go, just keep it." "
How could Zu Dongcheng's personal jade pendant be of ordinary quality?
His ancestral army in the East China Sea is simply a replica of the King of the East China Sea.
Not every warlord is as good as Zhenbeihou, who usually doesn’t even give up meat.Gotta eat.
Of course, no matter how valuable this thing is, Zheng Fan will not feel bad if he gives it away. Zheng Shoubei still has this pattern.
"Lord, did you win?" The blind man asked nonsense.
Liang Cheng said:
"A great victory. More than 20,000 people were beheaded. The Lord even captured alive the opponent's general, the eldest son of the ancestral family."
"My lord is mighty."
"Okay, okay, pack your things and get ready to go back."
Zheng Fance turned to the dock and said hello to the blind man before leaving.
The Yan army entered the city again, seemingly destroying all the spirit of this big city.
Just like the original rebellious boy, he suddenly entered his twilight years.
I know my fate and accept my fate.
Wen Mansion,
After hearing the report from the servants,
the faces of everyone in the Wen family in the hall showed looks of joy and relief.
And Wen Sutong, who had just seen off his grandson-in-law, slowly picked up the official hat he had put aside.
For a moment,
Wen Sutong in the hall Everyone in the family did not dare to speak.
At this moment,
they seemed to finally understand what kind of sharp eyes this old man had.
Wen Sutong stood up, pushed away the housekeeper who came to help him, and walked out of the hall.
Continue walking outside,
pass the courtyard, pass the patio, and go all the way to the door of Wen Mansion.
The servants on both sides of the door opened the door,
Wen Sutong walked out of the door.
Under the steps of the gate,
there were densely packed soldiers standing with swords in their hands.
The leader was
it was the man himself yesterday. Liu Sicheng, the new defender of Chuzhou City, led his troops to massacre many wealthy families.
"Finally, please see Lord Jiedushi!"
Liu Sicheng knelt down in person.
Behind him,
counted The soldiers of Qianqian Army knelt down together.
"I have seen what I should see, and I have waited for what I should wait for."
Wen Sutong put the official hat on his head,
Continued:
"The Yan people's sword is very fast, but not accurate enough.
The Yan people have already cut it once, let's cut it a second time."
Liu Sicheng and his subordinates shouted in unison:
"Yes!"
......
Zu Dongcheng was thrown into the tent. Xue San is responsible for guarding.
The rest of the people were sitting together. In the middle, there was a fire with an iron pot on it. There were hot pot seasonings in the pot, and a hodgepodge was cooking in it.
Six Niang sat behind Zheng Fan and helped Zheng Fan relax his shoulders.
Yue Xin started to cook things in the iron pot very sensibly. She picked up a big spoon and stirred it a few times from time to time. It can be seen thatCome on, she wasn't very used to the spiciness and would turn her head to one side and cough from time to time.
"It's cooked." Yuexin said.
"Put it out." said the blind man.
"Okay, husband."
Yue Xin picked up the bowl, filled a bowl for each person, and delivered it to everyone.
Six Niang said:
"Brothers and sisters, the rice is steaming over there."
"Okay."
Yue Xin didn't show any signs of it. Not happy to be ordered around, he got up and went to serve the meal again.
Each person had a bowl of hot pot and a large bowl of rice, which was very enjoyable.
Yuexin can't eat spicy food, so she can only eat as much food as possible. While eating, she is also looking around.
The smart thing is that she is not looking carefully and secretly, but observing everyone openly.
Because of this, everyone who felt her gaze, and then glanced at the blind man sitting next to her, either nodded or smiled at Yuexin.
In Yuexin's opinion,
The man in armor was very heroic. There were still blood stains on his body that had not been wiped off. He should have just come down from the battlefield. .
It’s just that this person looks very cold, the kind that can feel the chill when sitting near him.
Beside this man, there is another man sitting. This man gives people the feeling of a cool and elegant scholar from the Qian Dynasty, but he doesn’t like to eat, and rarely eats. He seems to be very thirsty. Just like that, I kept holding the water bag and drinking water.
He should be afraid of spicy food just like me.
That tough guy ate so fast. He didn’t eat out of a bowl. Instead, after others had filled the bowl, the remaining bucket of rice was held in front of him. He directly Use a large rice spoon to stuff rice into your mouth.
The little man came out of the guard station, picked up the food, glanced at himself, and finally cut his husband in the eyes and left bitterly.
This dwarf has a conflict with his husband.
Finally, Yuexin set her sights on Zheng Fan and Siniang.
This is the master.
Is the sister next to the master the mistress?
Yue Xin observed Zheng Fan carefully,
This man,
looks ordinary...
Looking at his temperament, It's also ordinary...
The movements of eating are also ordinary...
How can such an ordinary person be able to make his husband recognize him as his master?
After finishing the meal,
Zheng Fan said:
"Put it away."
The tidying up here certainly does not mean tidying up. Instead of clearing away the dishes, the army is about to set off tomorrow.
Zheng Fan walked to the tent where Zu Dongcheng was.
Xue San just put down the bowl and chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and said:
"Your Majesty. , he woke up and was pretending to sleepWoolen cloth. "
Zu Dongcheng still had his eyes closed.
Zheng Fan said: "Urine woke him up." "
Zu Dongcheng opened his eyes.
Zheng Fan squatted down next to Zu Dongcheng, reached out and patted his fair face:
< p> "You said you are a military general, why do you have such a face? "Zu Dongcheng turned his face sideways, looked at Zheng Fan, and said nothing.
"He is mute, so use urine to cure him." "
"..." Zu Dongcheng.
"Okay. "Xue San is about to untie his belt.
"Why humiliate? " Zu Dongcheng said.
"Then you, a prisoner, why are you putting on such a stinky air here? "
"What's your name? " Zu Dongcheng asked.
" Bang! "
Zheng Fan slapped Zu Dongcheng on the face.
Zu Dongcheng was stunned.
"Pay attention to your identity and say To be honest, don’t think that just because you are a major general in the ancestral army, you can do anything bad. Your army of 30,000 has turned into a goat running away all over the mountain. "
"Then what do you want me to do? Why don't you kill me? "
"Bored, I want to insult you. "
"My surname is Zu and my name is Dongcheng. "
"Yes, it would be better to do this earlier. My name is Zheng Fan, and I am a guard at Cuiliu Fort in Yinlang County, Dayan. "
"Is it you? ”
“It seems that I am quite famous. "
"It is indeed very famous. I didn't expect that I would fall into your hands. ”
“It’s your pleasure. "
"What are you going to do to me? "
"I haven't thought about it yet, but I have a preliminary idea. Can you persuade your father to surrender to Dayan anyway? "
Zu Dong looked at Zheng Fan as if he were an idiot.
"Okay, I sounded like an idiot when I asked this. ”
Zheng Fan waved his hand,
He actually had no idea what to do with Zu Dongcheng. The reason why he visited after dinner was, firstly, to digest, and secondly, he wanted to see. Look at the piglets he caught back from the pigpen today.
Li Fusheng has no intention of doing anything fancy with Zu Dongcheng. It’s not that Li Fusheng is arrogant. As a veteran, he knows very well. It would be too naive to know what a son wants to do.
"Why don't we think differently, tell me what you can bring me, and let's make a deal?" ”
“Transaction? ”
“That’s just business, let’s talk. "
A mocking smile appeared on Zu Dongcheng's face.
"Bang! "
Xue San punched Zu Dongcheng, and the right side of Zu Dongcheng's face swelled.
"My lord, I was wrong, I was impulsive. ”
“No, you did a good job. "
Zu Dongcheng spat out a mouthful of blood and said:
"Yangou, my ancestral homeSon, there is no such thing as weak knees. ”
“Okay, okay, I understand, I understand, then let me talk to you. Do you know what we are going to do next?” "
Zu Dongcheng didn't speak.
"You have to cooperate with me in speaking. I don't think you can hear some of my Dayan military secrets from me. In case you can escape, If you go, you can still report the news, right? "
"What are you going to do next? "
"Go south. "Zheng Fan gave the answer directly.
"Going south? Zu Dongcheng was a little shocked and said: "Go south!" "
"Don't believe it? "
"Just you people, going south, why..."
"Oh, you are wrong, there are 250,000 cavalry going south this time. "
"Impossible...impossible...impossible..."
"I didn't expect it before, but this is the fact. At the moment, on the border of Chujun, 250,000 cavalry have already been laid out. When we came, we didn't care about your three-sided defense line and went straight through. "
"How dare you! "
"There is nothing to be afraid of. Our Majesty dares to play like this, but does your Majesty dare to play like this? Tell me, does your father dare to go north instead of south? "
Zu Dongcheng was silent.
Zheng Fan had a villain smile on his face:
"Think about it, when your Zhao Guan family gets up early in the morning, suddenly I found that there were more than 200,000 more cavalry outside Shangjing City.
Are you surprised or surprised? ”
“It’s not that easy to capture the capital city. ”
Going to Beijing is the pride of Gan people.
It is no exaggeration to say that going to Beijing is not only the brightest place in the entire Eastern world, but even the East and West combined, this world is the most dazzling. The bright pearl is the most beautiful and prosperous city in the world.
“Chuzhou City is also very strong. Didn’t we also defeat it? "Zheng Fan asked back.
"It's different. I think the reason why Chuzhou City was defeated so quickly by you is because it was completely defenseless. Now, Shangjing City will definitely have defenses.
At that time, the officials will issue a decree and call on the army of the world to serve the king, and hundreds of thousands of troops can easily be gathered. ”
“Go to the capital and capture it if you can. As for what the so-called King Qin’s army is, we both know in our hearts. In front of my Dayan Iron Cavalry, it doesn’t matter no matter how many people there are.” significance. ”
Zheng Fan took out an iron box and took out a cigarette from it.
Xue San very considerately opened a cigarette and helped Zheng Fan light the cigarette. .
Zheng Fan took a breath,
slowly blew out a smoke ring,
said:
“To be honest, we I didn't expect to capture Shangjing City. "
"Then what do you think..."
Zu Dongcheng's eyes suddenly widened. Obviously, this manThe major general who grew up in the army thought of the Yan people's plan!
"Hey, you have thought of it, haven't you?"
Zu Dongcheng gritted his teeth.
In his mind, his father, Old and Young Zhong Xianggong, Yang Taiwei, and others seemed to rush south with hundreds of thousands of troops on three sides to rush for reinforcements.
Then,
more than 200,000 Yan cavalry suddenly came out,
everything,
seemed to be what I had done before Experience a replica of the scene.
The deserters all over the mountains and plains,
the Yan cavalry chasing them madly,
the earth stained red with blood,
the ground burned to the ground Elites from the three countries...
"Why...are you telling me this?" Zu Dongcheng looked at Zheng Fan.
"Think about it for yourself."
Zheng Fan reached out and patted Zu Dongcheng's face again.
Get up and
walk out of the tent.
I happened to see Siniang coming out of the tent where the blind man lived, followed closely by a male soldier.
This scene seems like what happened to Siniang just now in the tent with this soldier.
However, Zheng Fan did not misunderstand anything.
You won’t misunderstand anything if Siniang Hongxing cheats on her. This character guarantee is still there.
So, after having this preconceived character substituted, it is clear who the soldier behind Siniang is.
Just in time, the blind man came over with a box of files in his hands. These files were all collected from Chuzhou City and were worthy of repeated study.
Zheng Fan held a cigarette in his hand and pointed at the blind man,
asked Siniang:
"You can change your appearance so quickly. Why don't you let the blind man sleep at night?" What should I do?”
Six Niang shrugged and said:
“My lord, it’s not my fault. It was the blind man who asked me to disguise herself first.”
If Yuexin wanted to be taken with her, she had to disguise herself as a male soldier, including Siniang. She would also disguise herself when marching. It was really inappropriate to bring a woman with her in the army.
Six Niang then covered her mouth and said with a smile:
"My lord, the lights are not the same even when the lights are turned off."
Zheng Fan heard this and said:
“For a blind man, it doesn’t matter whether he turns off the light or not.”
