The confidant said cautiously: "I heard there is a war."
When Gong Xiqiu heard the word "war", his face became a little unhappy. Even though he had been trying to hide for a while, it didn't mean that the news was blocked. Hearing that the envoys of the King of Pigs ordered that Xiaocheng be slaughtered to pieces.
, still didn’t get the so-called “National Seal”.
The mentality is somewhat broken and the anger is strong.
But the one who was even more devastated than the Pig King's envoy was the Pig King.
Even though his title is "King She", he has no problem with his mind. No one knows better than King She what will happen if he doesn't get the national seal - once Zheng Qiao regains his breath, he can suppress the eager rebel crowd.
, the first one will come to deal with him.
King She and another rebellious brother became increasingly restless.
Specifically, the old general received a secret letter with harsher wording than the previous one, and even Gong Xiqiu, who had been closed to the public for many days, heard about it.
Gong Xiqiu sneered: "Is there another war?"
Last time, you did a useless job and massacred an entire city for the so-called "national seal"... This time there is a war, what else do you want to cause trouble?
The confidant bowed his head and said: "I heard it is a crusade against the coalition forces."
Gong Xiqiu: "What coalition forces? Those rabble?"
The confidant said: "It's them."
Gong Xiqiu pursed his lips and said indifferently: "I understand, you go back and tell your adoptive father, I will pack up here and go over."
They said they were cleaning up, but actually they didn't do anything.
I simply don’t like being on time and deliberately keep people waiting. Even if other people know it well, they have to endure it.
All the soldiers were having a banquet and there was endless singing and dancing in the hall.
As soon as Gong Xiqiu passed by, the old general enthusiastically asked him to come forward and sit next to him. Several young, beautiful, graceful and coolly dressed dancers came up to him. One of them had a particularly good appearance and was dressed more luxuriously than them.
This woman's waist was like a water snake, and she almost slipped into Gong Xiqiu's arms. She poured wine for him with a smile. Her eyes were as charming as silk, and her red lips were lightly parted.
The sound is as crisp as an oriole and very pleasant to the ear.
"Major General, please."
Gong Xiqiu accidentally touched the woman's naked back with his fingers, as if he had touched a delicate, soft and cold snake. He subconsciously froze. He was about to raise his hand to push the woman away, but he heard the old general ask him with a smile: "
Ah Nian, are you satisfied with this woman?"
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
He lowered his head slightly, his eyes met those eyes full of spring water, and he frowned and said, "Not satisfied."
When the woman heard this, her beauty immediately turned pale.
He hurriedly climbed out of Gong Xiqiu's arms.
She seemed to know her fate and kept shivering.
Normally, Mei Ji who was rejected by Gong Xiqiu would eventually be rewarded by the old general to other subordinates, or he would accept it himself. But this time, the old general was uncharacteristic and persuaded him in the tone of an old father: "How can a man not do this?
Do you like colors?”
This adopted son would be good anywhere.
He is obedient, loyal, has no ambitions, and does not think about coveting things that do not belong to him. He is much better than those unfilial sons in the family.
It's a pity that he is not his son.
The old general was very satisfied with him, but occasionally he would have a lot of worries - Gong Xiqiu liked gold, silver, jewelry, treasures and wine, but he was not greedy for money, he was quite indifferent to beauty, he was powerful, amazingly talented and young.
, there is still room for growth.
In a way, he is almost a perfect man.
But can a tool with no flaws really be used by him all the time? After three rounds of drinking, the old general’s cheeks turned slightly red.
Under the influence of wine, he said half-truthfully: "A-Nian, are you really unwilling to accept this girl? In this case, my adoptive father will reward her. Those soldiers below will follow you and my father on the expedition, away from the wives at home."
, there is no one to comfort..."
The dancer's face lost all color after hearing this.
She lay tremblingly on the ground without daring to say a word. Judging from the small tremors on her back that she was trying to endure, she was already frightened.
At the banquet, other generals also laughed and booed.
"At the age of a major general, not to mention a mother-in-law, even the children of concubines can run away." One person said nonsense under the influence of wine, "Is it because the major general has no one to teach the affairs of the house? Women are not fierce beasts that eat marrow.
It’s true to know the taste.”
Another person laughed and joked: "If you really reward a beauty with such a mark, I'm afraid that in less than two days, even the best buds will wither. You might as well accept it and add more flowers to the house."
How good is a person who knows both cold and hot?"
"It's such a shame to mark a beauty like this."
The old general raised his hand, preparing to have someone pull the woman down.
Gong Xiqiu said helplessly: "Just stay."
Hearing this, the already desperate woman raised her head to look at him in ecstasy, but Gong Xiqiu's eyes did not fall on her.
But no matter what, she escaped for the time being.
Gong Xiqiu knocked on the food table with his fingers: "What are you doing standing there in a daze?"
The glass of wine is already empty.
The woman hurriedly filled the wine glass for him.
When the old general saw this, the blockage in his heart finally cleared.
Gongxi Qiu took a sip of wine and asked the old general with a normal expression: "What is the reason why the adoptive father is urgently recruiting the children?"
The old general said: "For that group of thieves."
Gong Xiqiu: "My son is willing to relieve his adoptive father's worries."
The old general was happy in his heart, but there was still worry on his face.
He sighed and patted Yoshiko on the shoulder.
"As a father, I naturally know that my son is brave, but the alliance formed by this group of thieves is indeed somewhat capable. It is stronger than you and I expected. The leader of the alliance is named Wu, and his name is Xian. I heard that there are several people under his command who are outstanding in martial arts.
All the generals in the family are serious troubles!"
Gong Xiqiu said coldly: "Don't worry about my adoptive father, that gang of people is nothing in my eyes. My adoptive father asked me to lead an army of ten thousand, not to mention Wu Xian's generals, even Wu Xian himself, my son will also
Take off his head and make a cub for your adoptive father!"
The old general was greatly moved after hearing this.
He patted Gong Xiqiu on the shoulder and praised him.
"My son is brave! You can rest easy!"
Other generals also followed suit: "The Major General is the bravest of the three armies. Those local chickens and dogs are vulnerable. The last general is here, let me first pay a toast to the Major General."
Others also raised their glasses.
Gong Xiqiu had already rolled his eyes inwardly.
You still have to hold up your wine glass and drink with the generals.
At this time, a bearded military general with a somewhat unfamiliar appearance came out of the corner. He clasped his hands and said in a fierce voice: "How can you kill a chicken with a butcher's knife? The last general asked for a fight and was willing to send troops with the major general to kill that group of rebels.
Leave no trace behind!"
Gong Xiqiu's eyes moved.
He didn't quite know who his adoptive father was.
This stupid young man looked angry.
Why do you say it's stupid?
Didn't you see that everyone else was silent?
He spoke very forcefully, but no one stood up to ask for a fight. Instead, they kept blaming each other? Craning their necks to wait for him to come forward?
Why?
Because it’s easier to gain military exploits by following him!
On the battlefield, there is no one with swords and guns, who will not hesitate to die?
Victory in war means glory and wealth, who wouldn't be tempted?
If you can save your life and gain military exploits at the same time, no fool would refuse to do it.
But I didn't expect that a stupid person would come forward on his own initiative.
From what I heard, I wanted to take the lead.
Gong Xiqiu didn't recognize this person's identity, but how could the old general not know? He immediately said three good things in one breath: "Okay, okay - I have strong generals like you, so why worry about forming an alliance with traitors and becoming powerful?"
Without saying a word——
Reward this person with two dancing girls and a box of jewelry.
He ordered Gong Xiqiu and him to mobilize 10,000 elite troops to meet the enemy.
Gong Xiqiu accepted the order in a deep voice.
It's said to be ordering troops, but in fact he doesn't have to worry about it at all.
He can have a good sleep and recharge his batteries.
Emmm——
Looking at the woman lying on his bed, shy and timid, he immediately lost his sleepiness and stared at the woman in bed. The woman hugged the quilt and bit her lip. Seeing that Gong Xiqiu had not moved, her pretty face turned pale.
He turned pale, stood up and knelt down.
The white snow came into sight, and Gong Xiqiu moved his eyes away.
He pointed to the clothes scattered on the bed: "Put them on!"
The woman said: "Yes!"
Gong Xiqiu said again: "Go down!"
Women naturally don't dare to disobey.
With trembling fingers, she put on the clothes that were made of less fabric, just like the ones she wore at the banquet. However, the candlelight in the room was not as bright as in the banquet hall, adding a hazy and ethereal feeling.
To put it simply, it means turning on the blur beauty filter.
Even some shortcomings will be covered up.
Honestly speaking, it is indeed very beautiful.
Gong Xiqiu asked: "Why did my foster father ask you to come here?"
The woman bit her lower lip and said truthfully: "Serve the young general."
Gong Xiqiu: "Then you can say that you have served me well."
The woman looked at him in shock.
Seeing this, Gong Xiqiu asked back.
"Why, my adoptive father will ask someone to check whether you have served me? Just say it, and if you ask me later, I will say yes."
The woman's mood relaxed a lot, and she whispered: "If there is an inspection, and the Major General really wants to admit it, it may be detrimental to his reputation..."
Several big question marks floated on Gong Xiqiu's forehead.
He asked: "What do you mean?"
The woman endured her shame and said, "I am still a girl."
If someone really inspects him and Gong Xiqiu admits it, people will inevitably criticize him as a silver pewter spear head, which is not useful but looks good. How incompetent must he be to do this? It’s just that Gong Xiqiu didn’t think so much and instead wanted to protect the woman.
The answer was surprised: "It's really strange."
The woman thought that Gong Xiqiu was mocking her, and was filled with shame and anger, but she heard him say: "I know the virtues of the people under my foster father. With such an outstanding appearance, you can still stand guard and not take advantage of the chaos of war. That group of people can't stand it."
Has the scum changed his gender?”
The woman guessed: "Perhaps it's to charm me?"
Gong Xiqiu was too lazy to guess.
"You stay here in peace. If there is nothing else to do, you can warm the mattress before leaving every night. I will let you out again when I have the opportunity."
Woman: "...the young general doesn't want to take over the slave family?"
Gong Xiqiu spread his hands and said, "I can't take it."
woman:"……???"
Did she, did she hear some terrible gossip?
Is it really a silver pewter gun tip???
For a moment, death seemed to be coming to her. Knowing the secret of Gong Xiqiu, would she not be killed and silenced by him?
That's not enough.
"Those who practice martial arts should stay away from women! Indulging in women's sex will hinder your practice!" Gong Xiqiu was not that stingy and was not ready to kill a woman. He said, "I still practice boy's martial arts."
After hearing this, the woman realized that she had misunderstood.
But at the same time, I breathed a long sigh of relief——
Who is willing to give up his body in order to survive?
So very good.
Gong Xiqiu didn't care what the woman was thinking, and told her to go out after warming up the bed, and he really did what he said. The woman was trembling at first, but when she saw that Gong Xiqiu really didn't even look at her, she completely believed it.
Sleeping in the side compartment with a thin quilt.
Before dawn, I heard the sound of footsteps.
She got up and saw a tight women's dress on the originally empty table, and hurriedly put it on.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Gong Xiqiu transforming into a martial armor.
Then he blew the whistle to summon the war horses and left without looking back.
The subordinate officers followed closely.
Looking at the re-closed door and the gray sky outside the window, the Golden Crow has not yet completely risen. Just as her future is as bleak, the woman's heart is filled with endless sorrow for no reason.
But she soon calmed down and smiled to herself.
Compared with other arrested women, she is already doing very well.
At least Gong Xiqiu is strong and not cruel.
As for him saying he would find an opportunity to send him away?
The woman was reluctant. By staying by Gong Xiqiu's side, as long as he didn't fall, she would always have a place to settle down. But once she ran away, not to mention her face and body, it was her identity as a woman, and her identity as a woman.
It will cause a lot of trouble.
Because she doesn't have the ability to survive in troubled times.
Even though she had a family background that ordinary people would envy before she fell into trouble.
"Rootless duckweed..."
The woman looked at the sky and sighed in a low voice.
The sound was very small and disappeared as soon as it was spit out.
at the same time--
Gong Xiqiu met his adopted brother again.
The adopted brother asked him: "How did you spend last night?"
Gong Xiqiu: "One moment of a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold, it's very good."
The adopted brother was angry: "My father rewarded so many beauties before, but you don't want any of them. It turns out they are not beautiful enough."
Gong Xiqiu said: "It is better to lack than to overuse."
What else did the sworn brother want to say? Gong Xiqiu frankly smiled and said: "Brother, I have been wild and wild since I was a child. I like it very much if I like it, and I hate it if I hate it. I don't covet other people's things, but I don't like others to use them.
Reach out your claws to me."
The sworn brother was slightly frightened by his gaze.
"what for?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "It means that whoever stretches out his claws, I will chop off his claws! Put it in the pan and fry it, and then eat it with food and wine!"
After saying this, he rode his horse and passed him.
He knows this strange sworn brother very well.
If you don't warn him, the other party will do anything. Even if you have a grudge against him afterwards, the old general will favor his own son. Maybe he will hate iron and steel, thinking that it is a woman who deliberately seduces and destroys the relationship between brothers...
If you fall for a single crime, your death will be in vain.
The sworn brother looked at Gong Xiqiu's retreating back.
He snorted heavily, turned the horse's head and left.
Flag hunting, the 10,000-strong army has been reorganized.
Leng Tou Qing, who took the initiative to invite a fight at the banquet, stepped forward and said angrily: "Major General, the army is ready."
Gong Xiqiu didn't say a word, just nodded.
He glanced at it casually.
These soldiers are mostly young and strong.
On the battlefield this time, I don’t know how many will be left behind.
After taking a look at the clock, Gong Xiqiu put away his unnecessary thoughts, raised his hand and waved it down, saying quietly: "Army - set off!"
No one expected that the two parties would have such a tacit understanding.
Troops were sent out at the same time, but they still followed the same path.
Scouts from both sides quickly discovered traces of the enemy.
The Union Army was in great shock.
Leader Wu Xian asked: "Who is leading the army?"
The soldier said: "The flag has the word 'Gongxi' written on it."
