Shen Tang said quietly: "It's still a big injustice."
Gu Chi looked at his lord's sad face and couldn't help but joke: "If this is the case, why would the gods come down to earth to do this?"
Shen Tang gritted his teeth: "Come and escape the tribulation!"
"You are all here to collect debts!"
How many normal literary scholars are there in the world?
How few weird things are there?
Why is there such a high amount of weird things around her?
She didn't believe it if this wasn't fate!
Gu Chi was speechless, and he shrugged while riding on the horse: "If you are here to collect debts, Chi will definitely not be included."
He is the lord's mouthpiece, Jieyuhua.
Whatever the lord is inconvenient to say or cannot say, he will help him say it. He will bear the bad reputation and leave the good reputation to the lord. Compared with other colleagues, he is simply a little cotton-padded jacket that keeps warm in winter and cool and delicious in summer. Thirst quenching tea.
The corner of Shen Tang's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but complain: "...Looking at the tide, I just said fat, and you're still out of breath?"
Not humorous at all.
She now needs to complain to relieve her depression.
Gu Chi is good, he doesn't give any face at all.
"You are all half-measured..." Shen Tang murmured in a low voice, then raised his voice, "After returning this time, the situation on the border of Longwu County should be able to calm down for a few years. Take advantage of this time to appease the people's livelihood and recruit more people. Bar."
The situation in Longwu County is very complicated.
Shen Tang is a little stretched now.
"Recruiting?"
"You don't need to be a junior official with too much ability... If you are too capable, I can't retain people with my little wealth. But - if there is a suitable candidate in Wangchao, I can also fight for it. Maybe the bastard will look at Mung Bean. It’s eye-catching…”
Gu Chi: "..."
I don’t know where to start complaining.
Who is the tortoise and who is the mung bean?
At this time, Jiang Sheng joined the group chat.
He told Shen Tang a very cruel reality: "People of the same kind flock together, and birds of a feather flock together. What kind of person is Wang Chao? Most of the people who get along with him and become friends are also the same kind of people. The Lord does not want to be 'crossed by tribulation'" One more calamity must be avoided."
Shen Tang: "..."
She looked at Jiang Sheng silently.
Jiang Sheng has been in contact with Shen Tang for a long time and knows that Shen Tang doesn't have so many taboos. As long as he does good business, he doesn't need to be constrained by his identity as a minister in private, and he can even joke. He said: "My lord, don't look at Sheng like this..." Although those friends of Sheng will not become the lord's 'catastrophe', it is hard to say for Qi Yuanliang...it will be a fight, so it is better to avoid them."
His current relationship with Qi Shan is very delicate.
He won't take the initiative to provoke, but if the other party is unlucky, he doesn't mind pouring a bucket of boiling hot water on them and stepping on them.
Shen Tang: "...I understand."
There is no way to count on these deceitful goods.
On the eighth day of the march, Jiang Sheng was finally able to see clearly the beautiful face of her lord, which meant that the bad luck had dissipated. She could finally drink water as much as she wanted and walk without an umbrella. However, she could not take money now——
Any money nominally hers will disappear.
Shen Tang: "..."
She has already written "Kang Jishou's Ten Thousand Squeezing Methods Plan" and will implement it as soon as she returns to Yonggu Pass.
In this regard, Gu Chi and the two were helpless. Fortunately, she did not faint for no reason, nor did she do the embarrassing thing of riding a rocker and singing children's songs in public. This made Shen Tang feel better, and he would not have to look bad all day long. .
I thought that the journey back was going to be difficult, and that we needed to hide in hiding to avoid being chased. It was such a big thing to cause trouble in the Shiwu King City, so it was strange that there was no news from the Shiwu side. But the strange thing is that there was really no news from the Shiwu side. Quiet and suspicious.
It wasn't until we were only ten days away from Yonggu Pass that the scouts sent out caught a sneaky guy. This man had a poor appearance, but he was dressed like a Shiwu soldier. To be cautious, he arrested him. After some questioning, he found out that Yonggu What happened?
"Pfft - cough cough cough -" Shen Tang choked on the water that had not yet slid down her throat, but she had no time to clean up the water stains and hurriedly asked, "What did he say about the battle at Yonggu Pass?"
Did her ears hear correctly?
Gu Chi said: "My lord, you heard it right. It was indeed Yonggu Guan who killed more than 40,000 Shiwu troops. It was a great victory!"
Shen Tang: "..."
Not only Shen Tang was surprised, Gu Chi and Jiang Sheng also showed disbelief. Although they had great trust in their colleagues, they were not optimistic about the battle. If they were optimistic, they could hold on, but they suffered heavy losses. They never thought they would win a big victory. !
Jiang Sheng initially thought there were reinforcements.
After some questioning I found out if it was.
This victory was indeed dramatic.
Shiwu and Yongguguan soldiers and horses faced off, the national border barrier was broken, and this thing rose again at the critical moment.
The situation began to reverse from then on.
The Yongguguan side had a slight upper hand relying on brave warriors and literary scholars, but at best they could be repulsed, and it was unrealistic to cause serious casualties to Shiwu. What really widened the gap was when Shiwu Mingjin retreated. At that time, Yongguguan soldiers and horses took advantage of the gap between Shiwu's retreat and unstable formation, and suddenly launched their force to pursue them. They pursued them for more than ten miles, but Shiwu's side did not expect this move.
The soldiers were in panic and could only think of running away.
The more this happens, the harder it is to unite.
In the end, he was killed in a miserable state.
Great victory at Yongguguan.
Seeing this situation, King Shiwu was so angry that he almost fainted. He finally organized his troops and horses and prepared to recuperate for a few days before attacking. Unexpectedly, at this juncture, he received the bad news that the royal capital was attacked and turned into ruins. It happened that Yonggu Pass had a courageous man. The powerful general took advantage of the night to sneak attack and seized another opportunity. Shiwu's morale was already low. After this operation, how could he still be in the mood to attack the city?
Finally, he withdrew his troops in embarrassment and hurried back to the royal capital.
The soldier who was captured was a deserter who ran away from the battle. He was worried about being dealt with by military law, so he escaped when no one was paying attention to him and ran away, but was caught.
Shen Tang: "...when did Yonggu Pass become so powerful?"
She believes in the abilities of Chu Yao and others, and also believes that General Chu Jie, as the guard of Yonggu Pass for more than ten years, has rich combat experience and is very accurate in seizing fighter opportunities. He can expand the results whenever he has the opportunity - but it is not so fierce. Expected.
"What's more, we don't have enough soldiers and horses, and chasing the remaining soldiers is also very risky. As for a sneak attack in the middle of the night..."
Bold indeed!
It sounds like a fantasy.
However, the risks are high and the rewards are also high.
The situation in Longwu County is much better than expected.
Shen Tang was also worried that she would have to face a site that was riddled with holes, with nine out of every ten households empty. When she thought of this, she felt that all the bad luck she had suffered in the past few days was worth it. It didn't matter if she was unlucky, it was bad and not fatal. , but the people of Longwu County have really survived so many fresh lives! How can it not be worth it?
She couldn't help but secretly said, "Kang Jishou did a great job!"
Even the plan to exploit him was shelved.
Gu Chi: "..."
Who is envious? He won't say.
Knowing that Shiwu was in chaos and not caring about his own side at all, Shen Tang changed his previous cautious march of day and night and directly accelerated the pace, compressing the ten-day journey to six days.
As Yonggu Pass rises on the horizon, Shen Tang also has a smile on his face, and his heart is like an arrow.,
"I, Shen Tang, am back!"
Chu Yao and others received the news half a day in advance.
Xun Zhen also took a special trip to freshen up.
Then--
He saw two familiar faces: "Go first?"
Then he looked at Lin Feng, who seemed to be a lot rougher.
"This little friend is actually under Mr. Shen's account?"
Jiang Sheng also looked at Xun Zhen in surprise: "Hanzhang?"
Then, my heart pounded.
etc--
Have Xun Hanzhang and Qi Yuanliang met?
