Chapter 96

Late at night, the Liangzhou General's Mansion was a little heavier than usual. There was no sound, only a few lights shining in the darkness.

Because the Liangzhou army will go south to suppress the rebellion tomorrow, Chen Yue, the owner of this general's mansion, will personally lead his troops there.

During dinner, the three old people looked at the table full of dishes made by Chen Yue and shed tears while eating.

After finally passing some peaceful days, and unable to bear the thought of her son rushing to the battlefield again, Ma Ling'er kept putting vegetables in Chen Yue's bowl without saying a word.

After eating, Chenyue nodded repeatedly while listening to the chatter of several old people. They were just paying attention to safety and not to take risks as a general.

After listening to it for a long time, Chen Yue got a little tired of it. He rolled his eyes and looked at Ma Ling'er sitting beside him, and found that Ma Ling'er was also looking at him.

Chenyue quickly made a secretive face, and Ling'er immediately glared at him. Chenyue shrank his head, shrugged helplessly, calmed down and continued to listen to the chatter of several old people.

Unknowingly, it was midnight. Seeing that it was getting too late, several old people finally put what they had not finished into their stomachs and went back to their rooms, leaving the rest of the time for the young couple.

Since ancient times, mothers have been worried about their children traveling thousands of miles, not to mention going off to fight. I heard that many people died in the southern border. How can parents feel relieved?

In the young couple's room, Ma Ling'er was busy packing all kinds of underwear that Chen Yue would wear. Chen Yue was lying on the table with one hand dragging his chin and watching quietly, giggling from time to time.

"Sister Ling'er, you have prepared too much. You can't even wear it. There is so much detail in fighting. Sit down and rest for a while." After waiting for a while, Chen Yue saw that Ling'er showed no sign of stopping, so he

An couldn't help but shouted.

"Hmph! Who knows when we can come back! Bring more! You must wear more, especially in winter. Winter in the south is cold!" Ma Ling'er turned around and glared at Chen Yue, then turned around and muttered in a low voice.

: "As long as I can come back, that's better than anything else."

There was already a hint of crying in her voice. Ma Ling'er had been pretending to be calm before the elders were present at the dinner table, fearing that the old man would be even more sad. Now that it was just the husband and wife, they couldn't help it anymore, and their eyes became red. What a fight.

It's foolproof.

The tip of Chenyue's nose felt sour, and he walked over and hugged Ling'er from behind, whispering in his ear: "Don't worry, I will definitely come back! I am very lucky!"

Feeling the warmth in Chen Yue's broad chest, Ma Ling'er stopped what she was doing, turned around slowly, raised her feet and kissed Chen Yue: "I'm waiting for you, don't lie to me!"

Looking at Ling'er, who was dressed in blue and purple silk clothes today, her eyes were already moist, and a teardrop fell down her face.

Chenyue wiped away his tears with his skill, picked up Ling'er from his waist, and smiled: "Go to sleep."

Ma Ling'er's face turned red instantly and she buried her head deeply into Chen Yue's arms.

A night of silence.

Early the next morning, drums were beating outside Liangzhou City, and the whole city looked at him with suspicion.

The city wall made of huge stones reveals the vicissitudes of time, and bits of green grass stubbornly live in the cracks of the bricks, swaying in the breeze.

Within the city gate, a large group of elite soldiers slowly marched out, their banners covering the sky, their armor bright and endless, heading straight to the south.

Zhou Jingyao led Liangzhou City officials to line up at the city gate to march the army.

"General Chen, I wish this trip will be a success, sweep away the rebels as soon as possible, and show off the prestige of our Liangzhou army!" Zhou Jingyao was the first to bow to Chen Yue.

"General, please strengthen me in Liangzhou!"

The civil servants shouted in unison.

Chenyue got off his horse and saluted everyone: "Young men from Liangzhou will definitely live up to your orders. Please stand up!"

Then he took two steps forward to help Zhou Jingyao up: "Prince Zhou, I'm afraid it will take a long time to get there. If Yan Rong takes the opportunity to invade the border, General Xiao can be asked to come out to temporarily take charge of military affairs. After the soldiers of the patrol battalions in each county are reorganized, they will all have fighting strength."

, the governor can call with confidence."

Zhou Jingyao nodded: "General, don't worry!"

After Chen Yue said goodbye to everyone, he looked at the top of the city. Ling'er and his parents were on the city to see him off. Seeing Chen Yue's eyes, Ling'er waved his arms vigorously. Chen Yue breathed a long sigh of relief, smiled slightly, and said no more.

Without the slightest nostalgia, he turned around and followed the army.

This time Liangzhou's elite troops came out, including the Shanzi camp, the trapped camp, the heavy armored camp, and the light feathered camp. They walked out of the city gate in sequence, followed by a large group of infantry. About 40,000 cavalry from Wuguan had already formed a formation.

Outside the city, marching side by side, a total of 80,000 troops marched southward in mighty force.

Since Chenyue became the general of Liangzhou, there has been no corruption or deprivation of military pay among the frontier troops, and all the soldiers have high morale.

Since the civil war between Yan and Rong, no large army has invaded the border, but from time to time there are still small groups of rangers invading the border, or tribes that failed and fled during the civil war between Yan and Rong have become Chenyue's training targets.

Nowadays, these 80,000 soldiers are already elite, and they are no longer just new recruits recruited into the army a year or two ago.

The common people were on both sides of the official road to see off the army, and perhaps their sons, husbands, and fathers were among them.

Eyes longing for victory came from all directions, and Chen Yue felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavier. It was impossible for all of the 80,000 people to come back, and he didn't know how many of them had to be buried in foreign lands.

How many people have fought in ancient times?

Chen Yue's eyes slowly swept over these people, gradually moving away, and suddenly at the end he saw a group of people who looked like traveling scholars gathered together. In the middle of the crowd, there was an old man with white hair in commoner clothes who also cast his gaze over.

Their eyes met, Chenyue felt that this old man looked familiar, but he couldn't tell where he had seen him before: "Hey, who is this old man?"

The old man also saw Chen Yue and fell into deep thought. After a long time, he suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction where the army was retreating. A trace of shock appeared on his face: "It turned out to be him!"

"Boom!"

At this time, bursts of thunder came from above the clouds, and the wind gradually picked up, interrupting Chen Yue's thoughts.

It was sunny and sunny just now, but in the blink of an eye it seems like it will rain heavily. The climate in summer is so weird and changeable.

Chenyue raised his head and looked at the sky. He suddenly grabbed his horse's belly and crossed the line of the army. He held the handle of the sword with one hand. More than a thousand soldiers rushed out after him, with great momentum.

Chu Yucheng and other generals looked at the leader Chen Yue with a solemn expression. The soldiers on the march looked sideways at the galloping cavalry with admiration on their faces.

Chenyue looked towards the direction of the army, drew his sword and shouted angrily:

"I, Mr. Liangzhou, can there be a louder sound in the world than this thunder!"

"Kill! Kill!" The shouts of killing rose into the sky, and tens of thousands of swords were unsheathed at the same time.

Forty thousand men on horseback rushed forward, their horses' hooves trampling on the vast land, and the torrent of iron cavalry, like a torrent of river water, rushed straight into the sky with the shouts of killing, instantly drowning the power of heaven and earth above the sky.

Louder than this thunder in the world is the sound of the hoofbeats of my Liangzhou cavalry, and even louder than the roar of my Liangzhou men!

Summer of the first year of Jingtai
