"It's not enough, don't bother, just add some more."
Chen Chong lowered his body and whispered a lesson to a soldier on the left front. There were still a few forest leaves tied to his body. Although it was not conspicuous at this time, if the sun was exposed, the reflection of the armor would be exposed in the blink of an eye to the enemy.
The most taboo thing about a surprise attack is to hide under cover. Chen Chong patted him on the shoulder, instructing him to step back and prepare, and then continued to patrol forward.
Unexpectedly, Army Sima Zhang Liao suddenly came to report, with a strange look on his face: "Your Majesty, we have captured three enemy scouts."
"Is anyone letting go?" Chen Chong's eyelids twitched, and his shoulder blades couldn't help shaking slightly. "Wenyuan, what did you ask first?"
"No one ran away." Zhang Liao glanced at Han Xian who was leaning under the yellow pine in the distance and replied: "We only met this group of scouts, but they denied it and said they were here to find you, the envoy." "Looking for me?" Chen Chong calmed down. He turned half a circle and found his body as safe as a mountain. He asked, "Is the scout from Jie?"
Zhang Liao paused for a moment and replied: "He is indeed a Jie man with brown eyes, a tall nose and wide eyes. Is he really an old acquaintance of you? But now the two armies are fighting, and the opponent is a Jie Hu, so you should be careful." Chen Chong reached out and patted Zhang Liao's shoulder, and said with a smile: "With Wenyuan, you think so, so I don't need to worry. Take away the ropes of the three Jie people, and return the bows and swords to them. Wenyuan, stand beside me."
On the other hand, if you are lucky, the war in Xihe will come to an end after today."
Shi Sang led two of his men and followed the guidance across the top of the mountain, all the way to the slope of the back mountain. When he saw Chen Chong squatting under a tree, holding a bag in his arms, tying pine branches to the top of his helmet, his face was earth-colored, and he couldn't help but smile.
Come out.
Prefect Xihe put down his helmet, raised his head and smiled at him: "Brother Shi, do you think it's very funny?"
Shi Sang immediately stopped laughing, straightened his expression and said: "Prefect Chen did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to lead a small number of people to attack ten times the enemy. It cannot be done without a hero. Even though Shi Sang is a barbarian, he will still feel admiration for it!" "Be brave and fearless, everyone will have such moments, it's no big deal." Chen Chong also suppressed his smile, stood up and asked: "Brother Shi, you saw through my plan, and you thought of the location where I would set up an ambush, and you didn't tell you
King Sun Zhu came here, what do you want to say to me?"
"To be honest, I don't know your position, sir." Shi Sang smiled bitterly, touching the back of his head, and replied: "I just feel that your sir is such a hero and cares about the people's hearts the most, so he will never leave without a fight, so he went privately
After leaving the camp, I looked all the way along the back mountain and Shanyang, but found nothing. Just as I was hesitating, I was captured by the adults."
Hearing this, Chen Chong said to Zhang Liao who was beside him: "Wen Yuan, it seems that the hidden sentry we have set up can be as immobile as a viper, but as immovable as a tree, something will happen if it moves. You should note it down first, and I will record the merit for them later." Then.
Then he said to Shi Sang: "What Brother Shi wants to say next is the key point!"
"Sir, I thought I could straighten up when I stood up to speak, but in the end I still bent down." Shi Sang smiled bitterly: "In your eyes, victory seems to be in your hands, and what I want to say is no longer important."<
/p>
"That's because you don't understand me yet." Chen Chong seemed to cast his piercing gaze into his heart, "I have always felt that as long as people do the right thing, no matter the outcome or not, then they should do it as a matter of course. Just like
A goose with a broken wing will still fly south, and a carp with a broken tail will still go upstream. Brother Shi, you should not care about what others think of what you do, because the balance of interests will never be consistent in the eyes of different people."
These words were like a huge stone, suddenly breaking Shi Sang's spine and making him lower his head. But they were like a bamboo shoot breaking through the ground, pushing him to look at Chen Chong again, and he said firmly: "I am willing to move forward for your lord.
”
Climbing the city tower in Lin County, Zadu squinted at the fluttering royal flag and felt the warm wind of late spring, which was gentle but still a bit chilly, but this could not conceal his fiery ambition.
He had received the order to be granted the title of King Zuoxian, which originally made him satisfied, but Liu Hu's words made his slightly weakened ambition burn brightly again.
(I am originally from the royal family of Luan Ti. Compared with Xubucheyou, how can I not be a Chanyu?)
The deputy commander Qi Wuguduhou followed him and looked at Wang Qi and asked: "King Zuo Xian, when will we set off for Quyu?"
Zadu glanced at him, walked to the stairs, and said: "There are still thousands of Han troops stationed in Yonghe. Don't relax. At least 5,000 troops should be left here for defense. Tomorrow we will discuss who will stay.
"At this point, Zadu paused again and said lightly: "In my opinion, you are the most suitable."
Qiwuguduhou looked back at him and sighed: "King Zuo Xian, trees cannot block the wind, and wolves cannot control the clouds. Only when wolves are in a pack can tigers be afraid of them. Only when the Huns are united can they keep their homeland peaceful."
!Don’t think too much. If the Emperor of the Han Dynasty could cancel the conscription, this war would not continue. But without a war, how can you convince the public?"
"Then we'll set out tomorrow and take a day off today! How come I made a mistake when I conquered two cities in a row?" Zadu asked loudly, then without waiting for his answer, he went straight downstairs with his sword in hand.
Liu Hu was waiting for him at the gate of the city. When he saw him, he asked: "Tell King Zuo Xian that we have also prepared some drinks to reward the army. Maybe they will be sent to the army outside the city at dinner?"
Seeing Liu Hu wearing Han Dynasty robes and saluting him, Zadu smiled again and said: "Liu County Magistrate, I heard that drinking is not allowed in the Han army. Isn't it inappropriate for you to give wine to men like me?"
Liu Hu made a fearful gesture and quickly replied: "It is indeed not appropriate, but Liu Hu also knows that the army is suppressed and the soldiers will gain nothing after taking the city. I am afraid that the soldiers will be dissatisfied and bring disaster to the common people of Guizhou. If the king does not allow it, I will only
I can just send you some more corn."
"Don't be afraid!" Zadu laughed several times in the air and said to Liu Hu: "I know what you want, so you can send them to you! It's just that they are drunk and crazy, so Magistrate Liu should be more careful.
By the way, since it’s a reward for the army, how can you not give me a jar of good wine!”
Liu Hu straightened up, smiled at Zadu and said: "How can I be such an ignorant person? I have already set up a banquet in my mansion. I hope that the king will not mind the humble residence and condescend to you."
In the Linxian County Magistrate's Mansion, as soon as Zadu entered the hall, he could smell the aroma of meat all over the room. He couldn't help but twitch his index finger and exclaimed: "Magistrate Liu is really good at eating!" At a glance, the table was full of delicacies, except for some
In addition to common pickles, there are also rare dishes such as braised fish fillet, braised beef tendon, roasted venison, braised lamb, dog meat in soy sauce, etc. There is even a lacquer box on the chair, which shows that it was specially made for him.
So he led a group of Guduhou to the table, and while Liu Hu was warming up the wine for everyone, the sage Guduhou arrived late. Everyone was yelling at him to drink first. Qiwuguduhou glanced around and declined, saying: "The city is still empty."
If some soldiers are dissatisfied and cause trouble, I'll go and have a look." Then he left straight away.
Zadu was so bored that he could only drink a drink by himself first, and then said: "With wine and no joy, you will appear dull. I am a beautiful concubine, Hu Jia is like an immortal, please listen together."
There are many beauties from the Hu people who are plump and good at dancing, but only a few are good at music. During the banquet, everyone saw that the beauties were wearing red fox fur and holding crimson beard in their hands. Her expression was as beautiful as a dream, like a brilliance. She rose and fell gracefully when she heard the sound of music.
Round as the moon, high and low as jade.
Liu Hu finally pointed to the lacquer box on the shore and said to Zadu: "Does your Majesty know what this box is?"
"That's what you say! How could I guess it?" Zadu was a little drunk. He motioned for Meiji to stop and asked her to sit beside him, and then he casually held Yingying's waist.<
/p>
Liu Hu came closer, opened the lacquer box, and said with a smile: "This is the leopard fetus that we carefully searched for your Majesty. This is something that the Emperor likes. We have not tasted it yet, so we specially offer it to your Majesty."
A lingering aroma of meat rose up, and Zadu looked into the box. The soft meat in the box was stewed until it became crispy. The chopsticks pressed slightly, and the fetal meat broke at the touch. He took two bites, and it was soft and chewy.
I drank warm wine and had no idea where I was.
Suddenly, a member of the tribe came to report: "Tell King Zuo Xian that something happened outside the city."
Before he finished speaking, everyone in the county government suddenly saw a thick smoke spiraling up from outside the city like a dragon, with a little yellow-red firelight shining in the gray body, which looked particularly blurry in the red glow of the setting sun. p>
"What's the matter? What's the matter?"
"Everyone! This is strange! Could it be that the soldiers outside the city got drunk and started beating the generals? Whose tribe could they be?"
"Don't panic, don't panic! Didn't the sage Guduhou already go outside the city? As the deputy commander of the army, everything can be settled. What is there to worry about?"
In the midst of the discussion, Mei Ji leaned against King Zuo Xian fearfully and asked with a trembling voice: "Are the Han people coming?"
But this was regarded as a woman's ignorant theory, so it was not believed by the adults. Because they had already sent scouts, had many more troops than the Han army, and had already entered the impregnable city. From this moment on, the army
How could it be possible to lose? Moreover, now that I have received a gift from the county magistrate, I am enjoying lunch leisurely! If the battle situation had not been decided, how could King Zuo Xian lead a group of Gudu Hous to drink here?
"Let the sages go about their business and let's continue drinking."
The person who said this is the commander-in-chief of the entire army, the new King Zuoxian, and the future Shanyu.
"Keep playing." He lowered his head and said to Mei Ji.
Zadu listened to the music and couldn't help but draw the knife emotionally, flicking the back of the knife to the beat of the Hujia.
But there was also a noise outside the mansion, which made him couldn't help but frown and asked Liu Hu: "Are the soldiers outside the mansion drinking too?"
"They're all given away."
"Don't send it off." Zadu waved his hand and hit Liu Hu's forearm. He didn't notice the trembling of his body and continued: "I told these people before. Drinking too much wine will cause commotion. It's really a headache.
, tell them to be quiet."
Zadu believed that this was a commotion caused by their drunkenness, so he ordered his followers to stop it.
"As you command!"
The entourage stood up, saluted, and walked out slowly.
"Alas!" King Zuo Xian covered his head and said to Mei Ji: "Put away the Hujia."
Mei Ji took the wine glass respectfully, put away the bamboo slipper and left. All that is left now is the sound of wind, red clouds, and some delicious food and wine.
Suddenly, the sound of killing came from the backyard of the house.
When Zadu was struggling to stand up from the table, a knight covered in pine needles and leaves with red armor appeared in front of him.
Zhang Liao's long knife was dripping with dark red blood. The cold blade came against King Zuo Xian's wine-red neck. The blood dripped along the fox fur and flowed into his clothes, instantly making King Zuo Xian wake up.
"The banquet is over, your life and death will be decided by Chen Shijun."
After that, he threw a human head and rolled it three times on the ground. After stopping, his eyes were wide open with anger. Only then did Zadu realize that Qiwu Guduhou's head was looking at him angrily. p>
