General mighty
Chapter 39
Just as Prince Gong expected, the emperor issued an imperial decree, appointing him as the military governor: on behalf of the imperial court, assisting in military affairs, and supervising General He Lanxun and the expeditionary army as a prince.
But it was not as expected by Prince Gong, the imperial decree was issued in a hurry, and Prince Gong was urged to do it immediately.Be sure to arrive in Qingling County, more than a hundred miles south of Mannai State, five days later, and join the expeditionary army to go north.
Yucheng is still two days away from Qingling County at the fastest. The emperor made up his mind so early, I am afraid that it is inseparable from the activities of the main battle faction in Beijing.
In addition, although there was a faction in the main battle in the past, it was inevitable that the Gong family, Shu family, and Han family with different political opinions obstructed it. Gong Liangtai sold Shu Yongzhong's face in the Mocheng victory, which softened this barrier to a certain extent .
Therefore, the main combat faction has achieved unprecedented unity, with a high voice in the court and a lot of supporters.
At the same time, the battle of Kuoye and the great victory in Mocheng gave the emperor hope, broke the myth that Rong and Di were invincible, and proved to the emperor that the army of the Jin Dynasty was not vulnerable.
In the long run, it is indeed a good thing for Ling Cheng to think about regaining the lost ground.
But for Prince Gong, it is a great disadvantage.
It is not a trivial matter to go to the army to oversee the army - armaments, food, and fighter planes are intricately intricate and detail-oriented. The shorter the time, the more difficult it is to prepare.
Besides, how many secrets are hidden in Prince Gong's mansion, a hasty trip will only be full of loopholes, and it will be in Ling Cheng's arms.
After receiving the imperial decree, Prince Gong pondered for a moment, and immediately summoned the most trusted and important officials of the palace to Changxinju to discuss matters, and even invited Li Yinshang to go with him, but excluded Jiang Jun.
Even from the day Jiang Jun came back, Prince Gong ordered him to ground his feet in Chengfeng Hall to reflect, and even sent dozens of guards to surround Chengfeng Hall to prevent Jiang Jun from escaping.
Many diners in Xiyuan talked in private, saying that this young master who lived in the best courtyard of the palace, is afraid that the good times will not last long, the prosperity will inevitably decline, and the life will be short-lived in the end.
Looking at the bright lights of Changxin Residence from morning to night, and listening to the voices discussing politics day and night, Wuyan looked worriedly at Jiang Jun, who was concentrating on dealing with a beggar chicken.
"I said young master," Wu Yan couldn't bear it any longer, and snatched the last chicken leg from Jiang Jun's hand, hating it for not fighting and mourning its misfortune: "Are you not in a hurry at all?"
"Worried?" Jiang Jun licked his fingers and blinked his eyes.
"Yes!" Wu Yan pointed to Chang Xinju not far from the window and said, "Master, you must have offended the prince so presumptuously that day, and you must have displeased him when you saw such a big thing. I won't call you over to discuss matters."
Jiang Jun nodded and said "oh" nonchalantly, and snatched the drumstick back while Wuyan wasn't paying attention: "Then he prepares a beggar chicken for the person who makes him unhappy? Tsk tsk...then this Prince Gong still doesn't care about it?" It was fun."
Smokeless: "..."
== So this beggar chicken was prepared by Prince Gong?
(/#-_-)/_|__________|__ I don’t really understand the tastes of your superiors.
"...Then you can't be spoiled and spoiled, just because Prince Gong likes you, so you can do whatever you want?" Wu Yan frowned and looked at his young master: "You told me yourself—the kindness of a king is like water, and you are prepared for danger in times of peace. Don't be greedy for pleasure..."
"cough……"
Jiang Jun choked for a moment, and was defeated by the brains of this group of "natives" in the original book, who were so big that they broke through the sky: in their eyes, as long as two men have a good relationship, they must have sex.
Seeing Wu Yan who had turned into an old lady, Jiang Jun didn't bother to explain, he just hummed twice to ask Wu Yan to prepare for supper.
"What are you going to do for supper?" Wu Yan was puzzled: "Master, don't you still want to eat it? You have already eaten a whole beggar's chicken, two boxes of hibiscus cakes, and a pot of grapes this afternoon. You, you Do you want to eat tonight?"
"Stinky boy," Jiang Jun stood up and knocked on Wuyan's forehead: "It's not for me, but for guests. If someone is coming in the evening, you can prepare a few food and drink with you, and then serve A jug of wine."
In the background of this book, wine is not red wine in the modern sense, but more like low-alcohol fruit wine and grape juice with a little alcohol. Yucheng is located in the Northland but close to the Western Regions, in the cellar of King Gong There are many such things in storage.
The summer is gone, but the autumn heat is thick.
On that day, Zhong Ping declared Prince Gong's "decree" very solemnly, asking Jiang Jun to meditate behind closed doors, but very contradictoryly sent Jiang Jun a lot of things to relieve the heat.
Among them is this kind of wine, which tastes sweet, and it is not easy to get drunk if you drink too much.
After thinking about it, Jiang Jun added: "Remember to serve it iced."
Wuyan was full of curiosity, but seeing that Jiang Jun didn't mean anything, he could only nod in response, and turned to prepare.
The leak was ticking, and the night outside could not be seen from the underground of Prince Gong's Mansion.But the night here is more like seeing thousands of hectares of stars in the wilderness.
The luminous pearl on the zenith and the white lights that are gradually extinguished, relying on the small window of the wing room, you can just see the sparse bamboo shadows outside, the so-called "the window hides the bamboo bushes".
The "guest" who came late at night, when he pushed open the door of Chengfeng Hall and saw Jiang Jun sitting at the table with a half-smile and leaning on his cheek, and the table next to him with good wine and good food, he felt a little nervous. A happy smile appeared on his tired face.
In the night, his pair of dark and deep eyes are particularly bright, like the night pearls adorning the entire zenith of Prince Gong's Mansion, shining like stars, exuding seductive starlight in the deep night.
Seeing the person coming clearly, Wuyan's eyes widened and she almost screamed——
"Congratulations..."
The "guest" stretched out his index finger, raised the corners of his mouth, blinked at Wuyan, made a "silence" gesture, and then walked to the table very naturally:
"How did you know I was coming?"
"Because of that beggar chicken," Jiang Jun also bent his lips and smiled, and took out the wine from the ice cooler: "Although you said that you don't care about me, but these days, the outside of the door is full of you. Wei Jun, three steps, one post, five steps and one whistle, it gave me a headache."
Waving his hand, Jiang Jun told Wuyan to go down first, after all, this brat has a very strong ability to comprehend, standing here, he might imagine a "beautiful night, talking at night" inseparable love.
The less trouble, the better.
Prince Gong smiled, noncommittal, but took the wine Jiang Jun handed him and drank it down. After sighing happily, he said:
"Brother Huang's eyeliner is all over the palace. If you don't show something, he and Li Yinshang will definitely not let it go - even, because of this, they will notice you, and even bring you a fatal disaster."
Jiang Jun understands this, so those guards seem to ground Jiang Jun, which is proof that the two are not compatible.In fact, it is a kind of protection for Jiang Jun, to protect his safety and to protect him from a quiet environment.
An environment where you can quietly think about things in Mount Luo'e and Naiman State.
"Did Mr. Jiang have a clever plan for the battle against Nahal?"
Three or two dishes of side dishes with wine, paired with luminous glasses of wine, bright yellow candles flickering on the candlesticks, Prince Gong looked at Jiang Jun's face through the dim light, he asked very lightly, as if he didn't I would like to break the warmth of this room.
Returning late at night in the wind and snow, warming the wine and holding the lamp.
Like a traveler who has experienced wind and frost outside, no matter how hard it is, as soon as you return to your house, you can see your beloved with a lamp waiting for you quietly at the end of the dark and winding alley.
The cold outside seems to be cut off by the door of the small courtyard. After shaking off the exhaustion, you can drink a glass of warm wine offered by your beloved.The wine entered the throat and instantly warmed the body, and even the heart also warmed up, as warm as the bright sun in spring.
So warm, what a blessing!
"I have three plans for the Mannai state matter, but they can't be called clever plans," Jiang Jun said, "It's just a trick I didn't want to make wedding dresses for others—"
"Regardless of conspiracy and conspiracy, this king is willing to listen."
Jiang Jun laughed with a "puchi", he shook his head, and said a little helplessly: "My lord, you trust me so much, if I want to sell you, then you really have no place to die. Treat people with three , Jiang Jun was terrified—”
Prince Gong just smiled, with a gentle smile in his eyes and face.
He already knew that there must be another person hidden "under the skin" of Prince Gong. Although he really wanted to find out this person, Jiang Jun also knew that this was not the best time, so he coughed lightly and said:
"When I saw Qin Shen in the palace that day, the lord must have prepared to use him to restrain He Lanxun, and let He Lanxun have no skills and no chance to play tricks. It just so happens that I want to use this person, so I have to invite the lord when the time comes. Sell me a favor."
Prince Gong nodded: "Of course it can."
"Luo'e Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so we can only attack by surprise." The battle of Kuoye was a surprise attack, but at that time it was Wei Wu, a knight-errant from the rivers and lakes, who attacked instead of Ling Wu, the prince of the Jin Dynasty. Jiang Jun deliberately said "yes", just Looking at Prince Gong's reaction——
"Even if I, as a warlord, tamper with the troops in the army, it will be an excuse for Ling Cheng to fall for no reason." Prince Gong shook his head: "This method will not work."
He didn't mention the rebel army, nor did he mention the Jianghu people. It seems that he has perfectly substituted the "role" of King Gong, and he didn't exceed the outline, collapse the people's design, or overstep the thunder pool.
Jiang Jun raised his eyebrows. Since this is the case, he can only say: "I know, so I am not asking the prince to lead the army himself, but to find someone to lead the army to make a surprise attack. The prince does not need to come forward, and even after the surprise attack, he will not It will have nothing to do with the prince."
"so?"
"So I'm going to the army with you." Jiang Jun refilled another glass of wine for Prince Gong, and when he raised his head, he met Prince Gong's eyes straightly: "Although I know you didn't intend to let me go in the first place." — but I think you know that I'm not a canary in a cage."
Prince Gong looked into Jiang Jun's eyes, every slight movement in it was the strategic layout of mountains and rivers, as if he could see the earth-shattering killing cries and the neighing of war horses with just one glance, he really never planned to ask Jiang Jun to go——
It's already autumn now, although Yucheng is still infested by autumn tigers and the scorching heat is still there, but when you leave Qingling County and go north, it's going to be a bit colder if you walk a mile. It is covered with snow all year round.
Such weather...
He didn't want Jiang Jun to take risks, and he didn't want Jiang Jun to accompany him to intrigue and scheming with those villains from the capital in the army.
So he asked Ji Yu Jiangjun several days in advance, but Jiang Jun saw through his heart and still wanted to follow him.
Rationally, Prince Gong knew that what Jiang Jun said was right, that any war could not be just a war on paper, although it was decided to win thousands of miles away by strategizing, but the strategizing was also a military camp, and it was also a military camp stationed on a battlefield thousands of miles away.
Only when you are on the scene can you know the changing situation.
What Jiang Jun said is correct, only when he is on the battlefield can he come up with countermeasures according to the changes in the battle situation.Moreover, Jiang Jun is indeed not a canary, and he has never raised this person as a precious bird.
However, even if it is a roc that can soar in the nine heavens, he also hopes that he will be free from illnesses, disasters, and old injuries.
But since Jiang Jun insisted, Prince Gong could only sigh, and reluctantly agreed: "You can go, it's just..."
"The prince can't help himself in the army," Jiang Jun smiled confidently: "But Jiang Jun is not without the ability to protect himself, so the prince doesn't have to worry."
Prince Gong was taken aback, then looked at Jiang Jun's confident smile and bent his eyes, picked up the fine wine on the table and drank it all. In three days, he took people north to wait in Qingling County, and met Helan Xun. meet.
The original book didn't say much about the new emperor's brother-in-law, and only talked about his military achievements and achievements.
However, Jiang Jun, who saw He Lanxun for the first time, only had four words in his heart that were used out of date in the novel——xiemeikuangxuan.This man was born in the Western Regions, his mother was of Persian descent, he was even taller than Prince Gong by half a head.
Standing on his horse, his eyebrows and eyes are like sharp blades hanging upside down. Looking against the light, he really deserves the name of General Zhengyuan.
"I've met Prince Gong," He Lanxun smiled lightly, and didn't even get off his horse. He just cupped his hands slightly and smiled arrogantly: "I heard that there is a dancer in Qingling County who is very good at dancing." , I don’t know my lord—are you interested in watching it with me?”
He Lanxun is very good at causing trouble as soon as they meet.
Prince Gong wondered: "Could it be that the Persian beauty's dance is not graceful enough, and the general still wants to find a dancer in this countryside?"
He Lanxun gave a "haha" smile: "I'm used to big fish and meat, so it's inevitable that I sometimes want to eat some vegetables and radishes, my lord—you won't be willing to accompany me?"
It stands to reason that the position of prince is indeed more noble than that of a foreign relative, but now that He Lanxun is the general and Prince Gong is the military governor, if he sticks to the principle of military governor and does not accompany He Lan to have fun, then it means that he is not Prince An Le, the city is quite Shen used to be acting.
But if he accompanied He Lan to find some dancer, the opportunity to fight was delayed, and the battle failed, Ling Cheng would only take the opportunity to suppress him, saying that Prince Gong was an incompetent person, and there would be endless ways to clean up Prince Gong's mansion later on. .
Because he had expected this dilemma a long time ago, Prince Gong frowned, and said with a smile: "What kind of dancing girl, the general cares so much about you—I heard that you have a beautiful wife in your home in the Western Regions." Ten."
According to the original book, Helan Xun was born with a flirtatious nature, and he would take all men and women, and would not reject anyone who came.
Jiang Jun and Qin Shen were sitting in the carriage with the army, looking at Qin Shen in white clothes and holding the piano beside him, Jiang Jun sighed: He Lanxun is really a fighter in the scumbag.
"General," Li Yinshang couldn't help frowning and said, "After autumn, the weather in the north is changing, and yesterday's weather was different. The wind is strong and the clouds are blowing in the north. I'm afraid there will be rain and snow. Luo'e Mountain is also stationed in Mannai Prefecture, and this kind of weather is not a big problem for him—but it is very bad for us!"
He Lanxun raised his eyebrows, and many people in Zhengyuan's army focused their attention on Li Yinshang.
"If you stay in Qingling County for a few days, General, and when you encounter wind, frost, rain and snow while marching, Nahaler takes the opportunity to attack—" Li Yinshang shook his head again and again, and said with a worried expression: "Please think again."
He Lanxun looked at Li Yinshang and smiled strangely, but there was a dark, thin and capable lieutenant next to him with the same worried expression on his face.
"Li Yinshang," He Lanxun turned his horse's head and took two steps towards him, looking down at him contemptuously: "In the past, you were in the palace and served the general's sister dutifully. He fell out of favor in the cold, couldn't climb the emperor's dragon bed, but became his younger brother?"
Li Yinshang's face turned pale, but he still straightened his waist and said: "Your official and Prince Gong are innocent, the general can insult me, but don't forget your identity and belittle the current prince."
"Heh——" He Lanxun laughed nonchalantly, turned to King Gong and said, "Don't worry, I was joking with the prince. There are so many princes—how can you care about me?"
Prince Gong glanced at Li Yinshang, but said nothing.
"Furthermore——" He Lanxun suddenly raised Li Yinshang's chin with a folded riding whip: "Even if what you said is about to have wind and rain is true, Qingling County in Jinchao is rich in products. Can’t support 42 troops——?”
"If there is wind and rain, we will raise soldiers on the spot!"
After finishing speaking, he whipped Li Yinshang to the ground with a whip:
If it wasn't for this slut, how could that concubine Rong's concubine concubine get pregnant before the empress of the middle palace?
Li Yinshang was just a scholar, how could he bear this horsewhip, he clenched his lips and refused to bite, looking at He Lanxun's back with a pale face, and wanted to persuade him a few more words.
Prince Gong got off his horse at the right time to support him, and shook his head to signal that he didn't need to mention it any more.
At this moment, there was a "buzz" in the carriage, and the sound of plucking strings sounded, and the sound of the zither was pouring down like running water. After the whole army was stunned for a moment, He Lanxun let out a sneer, and reined in his horse to look at Prince Gong :
"It's been rumored that the prince is elegant. I didn't believe it. Now that I saw it, I didn't expect that the prince is really a flirtatious person who knows the cold and the hot. The warlord is here. The prince still has one or two lovers? Play and sing. violin?"
"It's easy to say, easy to say," Prince Gong smiled slightly, but showed an exaggerated worry: "The general will not want to steal someone's favor, will he? I bought this person with great difficulty!"
He Lanxun snorted disdainfully, thinking what about the royal relatives of Tianhuang Guihua, he is just a stupid thing who has never seen the world in the Northland, and the sound of the piano is just mediocre, so he has no interest in snatching it. .
So He Lan Xun said: "My lord, don't worry, even if you can let me eat a bite of the meat you gnawed on the spot, I'd rather see it rot there, and I won't touch a single bit of it."
Hearing what he said, Prince Gong smiled: "With the general's words, I feel at ease."
Prince Gong helped Li Yinshang to get on the horse, followed He Lanxun for a few steps, and suddenly there was a singing sound accompanied by the sound of the piano. words and sentences.
The man's singing is like the rhyme of Lin Laiquan, when it is mild, it is like the gurgling water in the mountains, and when it is passionate, it can be like the waves reflecting the sea. The melodious singing, accompanied by the sound of the piano, is amazing.
Most of the Zhengyuan Army are generals who have been in the army since childhood, so they can't understand the true meaning.
But their general He Lanxun, after hearing that voice, froze in place, as if struck by lightning.
Immediately, he turned his head a little bit in disbelief, staring at the carriage with his eyes wide open, as if he could see through the outer eaves of the carriage and see the people inside through the curtain.
How could he forget this voice, how could he forget it!
More than ten years ago, his younger sister was welcomed into the central palace by the emperor, and the power of the Helan family in the northwest was rising day by day.Loulan, Qiuci, and other large and small countries came to contact the Helan family one after another, intending to seek more benefits.
Their Helan family has strong financial resources and military power to protect them. Now with the blessing of the Jin Dynasty royal family, it can be said that although they have not been crowned king in the Western Regions, they have already controlled the lifeblood of the entire Western Regions.
However, in the mysterious desert of the Western Regions, there is still a place that is dreadful.
Both the Helan family and the royal family of the Jin Dynasty are in awe of the so-called "Holy Religion of the Western Regions" on the sacred mountain of the Western Regions. This group of people seems to know the art of magic. He Lan once witnessed them conjuring icicles and volcano.
The reason why He Lanxun has seen this kind of spell is precisely because more than ten years ago, he strayed into the forbidden area of the Holy Cult, but was finally rescued by a "saint" of the Holy Cult and took care of him tirelessly. Only then survived.
He Lan searched for a romantic life all her life, but she had a heart for that savior to live forever.He couldn't find it for many years, and he couldn't meet that person again. He only remembered the other person's appearance, but he didn't even know his name.
After that, He Lan searched for many people, and through those people, he searched for the shadow of his benefactor. Among them, there was a man from the Western Regions who was gentle and good at playing the long piano, and his singing voice was unparalleled, like the sound of heaven.
And more than ten years ago, when He Lanxun was weighing the pros and cons to marry the Queen of the Governor of Liangjiang, at the great celebration, the boy from the Western Regions came forward with a white suit and a piano, and asked him with a smile if he really wanted to marry Wang as his wife. wife.
He asked the question three times in a row, and He Lanxun answered it three times in a row, and at the end he even impatiently asked someone to drag this "plaything" down, so as not to be unruly and spoil his happy event.
The kid suddenly laughed, and when he laughed, there was a breeze all over him, and his beautiful black hair was scattered and turned into silver threads in that instant.He picked up the piano and dropped it, and under the extreme surprise of He Lanxun and the others——
He dug out his own eyes and has been blind ever since.
"He Lanxun, I was the one who was blind when I saved you. Now that I'm leaving, it's useless to keep these wrong eyes, so I will stay here as a gift for you. I wish you a beautiful wife and son-in-law."
——The only words he left to him were like sharp thorns that pierced He Lanxun's heart for more than ten years.For more than ten years, he searched in the Western Regions, but he couldn't find that boy named Luo Zhulang again.
He saw the wrong person to save him, but He Lanxun couldn't recognize his benefactor, and caused him to lose his eyes. .
Naturally, He Lanxun's wedding was not able to go on. The wife he later married was an ordinary eunuch girl in the Northwest, but whenever he saw the red wedding silk, He Lanxun would always think of the bloody pair that was left behind. eyes on the ground.
"Zhu Lang?!" He Lanxun never misunderstood his voice. He turned his horse's head and walked quickly to the carriage. His face was pale, his heartbeat fluctuated, and he stretched out his hand to lift the curtain.
"Ah? General!" Prince Gong hastily shot to stop him, standing between He Lanxun and the carriage: "General, didn't we agree just now! You, you definitely don't take what others like?!"
He Lanxun was taken aback for a moment, and then a very ferocious expression appeared on his face. He didn't care about etiquette, but grabbed Prince Gong's front: "Then you tell this general! Tell me—the carriage is loaded with who?!"
He had never been so groggy, nor had he been so frightened.
Because of his stupidity, he has missed him for so many years, and now we finally met, is it necessary to miss him again because of one of his stupid words?He Lan refused to accept his fate, so he couldn't let this person go.
"The king has already told the general just now." Prince Gong's face was normal, with a slight smile on his face: "This is a luthier that the king was looking for in the north. He can sing well, so I helped him. Redeemed and brought with me..."
"Did you touch him—!"
He Lanxun looked like an enraged beast, with red eyes, unable to listen to every word that Prince Gong said, jealousy and fear filled his heart, like a vine that suddenly grew wildly, consuming everything he had. Snatch away airtightly.
"This...general?" But a nice voice came from inside the carriage: "My lord has always treated me very well. After I follow my lord, I don't have to sell myself anymore."
What he said was very cute, but to He Lanxun's ears, it was like a bone-destroying poison|drug. He took two steps back with a pale face, his eyes full of disbelief: "What the hell... what happened..."
He lost his eyes, so he still wants to become a prostitute?
——What did he do to his benefactor more than ten years ago?
He Lanxun tugged at his bun in dismay.
Prince Gong hooked the corners of his mouth where he couldn't see, turned around but still looked surprised:
"What's the matter? General, do you know Qin Shen?"
"...Qin...shen?" He Lanxun almost choked out these two unfamiliar words from his throat.
Prince Gong nodded, and then He Lan shook his head as if looking for relief, as if he had aged several years: "No, I don't know...no...know..."
"Then general, shall we still look for the dancer girl?" Prince Gong's voice was loud, and he looked like a playful Prince An Le when he jumped on the horse.
But He Lanxun didn't have the desire to find joy, he waved his hand and asked the adjutant to lead the army forward at full speed——
After He Lanxun left, the adjutant who was following behind him heaved a sigh of relief, looked at He Lanxun complicatedly, and then stepped up to follow. His movements were not obvious, but he landed firmly on the ground. In Jiang Jun's eyes.
With a slight smile, Jiang Jun raised the curtain of the car and explained to a guard of Prince Gong: "He Lanxun is looking for the lean and dark lieutenant next to him, please help me find out—"
After Jinwei took the order, Jiang Juncai put down the curtain of the car with a faint smile, and looked at Qin Shen beside him with a calm face: "It turns out that Boss Qin is from the Western Regions, and his name is quite nice."
Qin Shen smiled faintly: "Luo Zhulang died ten years ago, my name is Qin Shen, Mr. Jiang, don't forget."
Although he knew about the grievances between him and He Lanxun, Jiang Jun somewhat thought that this person still had some affection for He Lanxun, but he didn't expect that this Master Qin would be fine if he was not emotional, and if he was emotional, he would have a heart-to-heart friendship.
But when unfeeling, it is even more fatal.
Prince Gong had secretly told Jiang Jun that Luo Zhulang was probably still a member of the Holy Cult of the Western Regions. He came out for Helan's apostasy, but he was let down. After Prince Gong rescued him back then, he came back to life little by little Master Qin who played the piano.
It's just that Qin Shen never sold himself, he just said that just to make He Lan feel so miserable.
Jiang Jun shrank his neck, determined not to provoke this kind of ruthless horn who could be ruthless enough to goug his eyes.
After Qin Shen's fuss, He Lanxun's original intention of embarrassing Prince Gong was directed at Qin Shen.Qin Shen sat in the carriage and didn't come out, let alone allow him to go in. One of the two was on the verge of collapse, but the other was obedient.
So are the most familiar strangers.
But this is the best way, He Lanxun has no time to make troubles, and the army marched very smoothly.
According to Jiang Jun and Prince Gong's prediction, it only took three days to set up camp under the southern slope of Luo'e Mountain from Qingling County.And the adjutant that Jiang Jun asked the guards to inquire about also has a clue——
His name is Baixi, and he is a poor boy.After several wars, the family moved to the interior of the Jin Dynasty, but the land and real estate disappeared during the migration, and they became completely poor.
He has been in the army for many years, has rich experience and is extremely capable, and he has his own plan in mind for the battle of Luo'e Mountain.
Jiang Jun curled the corners of his mouth, and he had a plan in mind - the surprise attack on Luo'e Mountain could be handed over to this Baixi: he is not a son of a noble family, so he doesn't need to worry about his family's political opinions and background; Wei, just enough to mobilize a small group of soldiers.
Putting the thick fox fur on his body, looking at the yellowing sky, Jiang Jun exhaled white hot air. The weather is getting colder and colder as Li Yinshang said, and it will be even worse if it encounters rain and snow. unfavorable.
"Master Qin, I'm afraid I will trouble you again—" Jiang Jun glanced at the quiet man sitting next to him, and said, "Let this General He Lan delay for a few days."
He Lanxun's mind is extremely confused now, and Bai Xi is in charge of matters in the military. If this continues, Bai Xi will definitely find a way to persuade He Lanxun to send troops to attack Luo'e Mountain and Mannai Prefecture by surprise. At that time, all military achievements will be remembered by He Lan .
The Chen family and Ling Cheng in Yucheng in the north cannot be allowed to form an alliance so quickly, and He Lanxun's power in the court and palace cannot be allowed to flourish, so even if there is a surprise attack, it must be done by Baixi secretly and completely ignored. He Lanxun's surprise attack.
Qin Shen smiled and nodded: "Young Master Jiang, you are polite, this is my job."
In fact, after getting along for a few days, Jiang Jun felt that the man beside him didn't look like a blind luthier, but like a monk meditating in meditation. , with smiles on their faces.
It's hard to imagine—he once gouged out his own eyes with his own hands.
Earlier, Jiang Jun was worried that He Lanxun's unrelieved appearance would shake Qin Shen's determination, but the blind luthier smiled lightly and said, "Then what's the point of me gouging out my eyes", completely dispelling Jiang Jun's doubts.
Qin Shen is smart and decisive. From the very beginning, he was not prepared to look back, nor was he prepared to humiliate himself.
In a lifetime, being stupid or blind once is enough to pay a lifetime price for it.
So, with Qin Shen's help, a feeling that seemed real but not real, and a little bit of ambiguity, made He Lanxun believe that Qin Shen still had feelings for him, and as long as he had feelings, he would no longer be so afraid Worry.
In the past few days, He Lanxun had time to spare.
After he was free, the general suddenly found that his army was already in Luo'e Mountain, and under the leadership of Baixi, he would soon have a considerable victory.
It's a good thing that things are going well, and Baixi is not greedy for military merits, he is a stupid guy who wholeheartedly serves the common people.
He Lanxun felt relieved about such a person.
But if the army breaks through Luo'e Mountain soon and captures Nahale more smoothly, the emperor will have no way to do anything about the things that the emperor secretly confessed to him, and there will be no chance to do so.
So, knowing that there might be rain and snow the next day, He Lanxun still ordered the army to station on the spot, and even ordered the food and grass officer to go out to receive supplementary military supplies from nearby counties and towns.
This order was ridiculous, but seeing Prince Gong standing with Li Yinshang, He Lanxun had no choice but to issue the military order.
When Baixi knew about the military order, he was deploying raiding archers on the mountain roads on both sides. After hearing this ridiculous military order, he cursed a few times violently on the spot:
"General, is he crazy?! Give up the great opportunity and choose to garrison in place?! What kind of food and grass are you still accepting? The sky is turning yellow, and there will be another storm tomorrow! The road in the mountain is muddy, so he is not afraid that Rongdi will come out halfway to rob us." Looting food?!"
The soldiers who followed Baixi were all his cronies, and they all beat their chests with anger, and couldn't accept it at all.
However, the military order is like a mountain, and they are all soldiers, and they have to obey.
The desperation of watching a piece of tender and fat meat slowly rotting in front of his eyes instantly permeated the hearts of this small group of soldiers.
"Since the military order is absurd, why doesn't the general march by himself?" A clear voice sounded, and Jiang Jun, who was dressed in a crimson fox fur, slowly walked out on the cold and hard dirt mountain road: "As an adjutant, General Bai can command the number of forward battalions." Thousands of cavalry, take advantage of tonight to march into the mountain—to go straight to the Nahale camp at the Luo'e Mountain Gate."
"You..." Bai Xi was stunned, and looked at Jiang Jun warily: "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is—" Jiang Jun frowned and smiled: "Does the general have the courage and courage to raid the Rongdi camp tonight?!"
"The most important thing is, does the general dare to use this power of beheading first and playing later to seek blessings for himself and the people?!"
"The most important thing is, general and all the soldiers, do you dare to fight this ridiculous order from someone who is full of enthusiasm and will never be manipulated by others, and will never obey the orders of people who don't understand the situation of the battle and can't tell the priorities?!"
Jiang Jun's words struck Bai Xi's heart, but Bai Xi never thought about it so much.
All he wanted was to be able to fight, to fight more, to repel the gang of Zirong and Di, and then return the people in the North to live in peace and contentment.However, He Lan found out that he turned back and acted rashly, which really broke the hearts of these soldiers.
Conquering captives is a sacred territory that cannot be underestimated in the hearts of many soldiers.
If you win this way, it's fine. If you don't win, you won't be able to put on the battle armor for many years.Bai Xi admitted that he was a little shaken, but the military order is like a mountain, he can ignore it, but——
The generals, the generals behind him, how could they not care?
Jiang Jun saw his worry, and said with a faint smile: "If the general seals up thousands of households at the right time, not to mention the thousands of soldiers in the Qianfeng Battalion, even the entire expeditionary army, the general can have the final say."
"you……"
"General, just do your own thing," Jiang Jun raised the corners of his mouth, "Jiang Jun promises that the general will not be in trouble for righteousness and brotherhood—there will probably be a heavy snow tonight, and everyone, please add some warming clothes." Winter clothes."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Jun didn't wait for Baixi's decision or everyone's surprise, he retreated perfectly from the grove where he appeared, turned around and left.
Jiang Jun didn't know what Baixi would do, but tonight—the entire expeditionary army, no one was destined to sleep.
After he retreated from the mountain road, he saw Prince Gong leading a jujube horse from a distance, as well as the quartermaster and several soldiers behind Prince Gong. Jiang Jun was taken aback, and hurried down the mountain a few steps:
"What? The prince is going out?"
"Yes, General He Lan said that the transportation of food and grass is a big deal, so let me personally sit in charge of the army."
"But..." Jiang Jun glanced at the top of the sky, the sky is always changing, if a storm comes at night, I'm afraid there will be a flash flood and it will be difficult to deal with, and food and grass will definitely be lost.
This matter was somewhat beyond Jiang Jun's expectations, and this He Lanxun really wanted to pick things up as soon as he was free.
"It's okay, I'll find a way to get away," Prince Gong smiled faintly, leaned forward and lowered his voice: "You are indispensable in the army, Qin Shen can't last long alone, success or failure depends on one stroke."
"You don't have to worry too much."
At this point, Jiang Jun couldn't stop him, so he could only watch as Prince Gong led his people away with the quartermaster.But when the night
But it was not as expected by Prince Gong, the imperial decree was issued in a hurry, and Prince Gong was urged to do it immediately.Be sure to arrive in Qingling County, more than a hundred miles south of Mannai State, five days later, and join the expeditionary army to go north.
Yucheng is still two days away from Qingling County at the fastest. The emperor made up his mind so early, I am afraid that it is inseparable from the activities of the main battle faction in Beijing.
In addition, although there was a faction in the main battle in the past, it was inevitable that the Gong family, Shu family, and Han family with different political opinions obstructed it. Gong Liangtai sold Shu Yongzhong's face in the Mocheng victory, which softened this barrier to a certain extent .
Therefore, the main combat faction has achieved unprecedented unity, with a high voice in the court and a lot of supporters.
At the same time, the battle of Kuoye and the great victory in Mocheng gave the emperor hope, broke the myth that Rong and Di were invincible, and proved to the emperor that the army of the Jin Dynasty was not vulnerable.
In the long run, it is indeed a good thing for Ling Cheng to think about regaining the lost ground.
But for Prince Gong, it is a great disadvantage.
It is not a trivial matter to go to the army to oversee the army - armaments, food, and fighter planes are intricately intricate and detail-oriented. The shorter the time, the more difficult it is to prepare.
Besides, how many secrets are hidden in Prince Gong's mansion, a hasty trip will only be full of loopholes, and it will be in Ling Cheng's arms.
After receiving the imperial decree, Prince Gong pondered for a moment, and immediately summoned the most trusted and important officials of the palace to Changxinju to discuss matters, and even invited Li Yinshang to go with him, but excluded Jiang Jun.
Even from the day Jiang Jun came back, Prince Gong ordered him to ground his feet in Chengfeng Hall to reflect, and even sent dozens of guards to surround Chengfeng Hall to prevent Jiang Jun from escaping.
Many diners in Xiyuan talked in private, saying that this young master who lived in the best courtyard of the palace, is afraid that the good times will not last long, the prosperity will inevitably decline, and the life will be short-lived in the end.
Looking at the bright lights of Changxin Residence from morning to night, and listening to the voices discussing politics day and night, Wuyan looked worriedly at Jiang Jun, who was concentrating on dealing with a beggar chicken.
"I said young master," Wu Yan couldn't bear it any longer, and snatched the last chicken leg from Jiang Jun's hand, hating it for not fighting and mourning its misfortune: "Are you not in a hurry at all?"
"Worried?" Jiang Jun licked his fingers and blinked his eyes.
"Yes!" Wu Yan pointed to Chang Xinju not far from the window and said, "Master, you must have offended the prince so presumptuously that day, and you must have displeased him when you saw such a big thing. I won't call you over to discuss matters."
Jiang Jun nodded and said "oh" nonchalantly, and snatched the drumstick back while Wuyan wasn't paying attention: "Then he prepares a beggar chicken for the person who makes him unhappy? Tsk tsk...then this Prince Gong still doesn't care about it?" It was fun."
Smokeless: "..."
== So this beggar chicken was prepared by Prince Gong?
(/#-_-)/_|__________|__ I don’t really understand the tastes of your superiors.
"...Then you can't be spoiled and spoiled, just because Prince Gong likes you, so you can do whatever you want?" Wu Yan frowned and looked at his young master: "You told me yourself—the kindness of a king is like water, and you are prepared for danger in times of peace. Don't be greedy for pleasure..."
"cough……"
Jiang Jun choked for a moment, and was defeated by the brains of this group of "natives" in the original book, who were so big that they broke through the sky: in their eyes, as long as two men have a good relationship, they must have sex.
Seeing Wu Yan who had turned into an old lady, Jiang Jun didn't bother to explain, he just hummed twice to ask Wu Yan to prepare for supper.
"What are you going to do for supper?" Wu Yan was puzzled: "Master, don't you still want to eat it? You have already eaten a whole beggar's chicken, two boxes of hibiscus cakes, and a pot of grapes this afternoon. You, you Do you want to eat tonight?"
"Stinky boy," Jiang Jun stood up and knocked on Wuyan's forehead: "It's not for me, but for guests. If someone is coming in the evening, you can prepare a few food and drink with you, and then serve A jug of wine."
In the background of this book, wine is not red wine in the modern sense, but more like low-alcohol fruit wine and grape juice with a little alcohol. Yucheng is located in the Northland but close to the Western Regions, in the cellar of King Gong There are many such things in storage.
The summer is gone, but the autumn heat is thick.
On that day, Zhong Ping declared Prince Gong's "decree" very solemnly, asking Jiang Jun to meditate behind closed doors, but very contradictoryly sent Jiang Jun a lot of things to relieve the heat.
Among them is this kind of wine, which tastes sweet, and it is not easy to get drunk if you drink too much.
After thinking about it, Jiang Jun added: "Remember to serve it iced."
Wuyan was full of curiosity, but seeing that Jiang Jun didn't mean anything, he could only nod in response, and turned to prepare.
The leak was ticking, and the night outside could not be seen from the underground of Prince Gong's Mansion.But the night here is more like seeing thousands of hectares of stars in the wilderness.
The luminous pearl on the zenith and the white lights that are gradually extinguished, relying on the small window of the wing room, you can just see the sparse bamboo shadows outside, the so-called "the window hides the bamboo bushes".
The "guest" who came late at night, when he pushed open the door of Chengfeng Hall and saw Jiang Jun sitting at the table with a half-smile and leaning on his cheek, and the table next to him with good wine and good food, he felt a little nervous. A happy smile appeared on his tired face.
In the night, his pair of dark and deep eyes are particularly bright, like the night pearls adorning the entire zenith of Prince Gong's Mansion, shining like stars, exuding seductive starlight in the deep night.
Seeing the person coming clearly, Wuyan's eyes widened and she almost screamed——
"Congratulations..."
The "guest" stretched out his index finger, raised the corners of his mouth, blinked at Wuyan, made a "silence" gesture, and then walked to the table very naturally:
"How did you know I was coming?"
"Because of that beggar chicken," Jiang Jun also bent his lips and smiled, and took out the wine from the ice cooler: "Although you said that you don't care about me, but these days, the outside of the door is full of you. Wei Jun, three steps, one post, five steps and one whistle, it gave me a headache."
Waving his hand, Jiang Jun told Wuyan to go down first, after all, this brat has a very strong ability to comprehend, standing here, he might imagine a "beautiful night, talking at night" inseparable love.
The less trouble, the better.
Prince Gong smiled, noncommittal, but took the wine Jiang Jun handed him and drank it down. After sighing happily, he said:
"Brother Huang's eyeliner is all over the palace. If you don't show something, he and Li Yinshang will definitely not let it go - even, because of this, they will notice you, and even bring you a fatal disaster."
Jiang Jun understands this, so those guards seem to ground Jiang Jun, which is proof that the two are not compatible.In fact, it is a kind of protection for Jiang Jun, to protect his safety and to protect him from a quiet environment.
An environment where you can quietly think about things in Mount Luo'e and Naiman State.
"Did Mr. Jiang have a clever plan for the battle against Nahal?"
Three or two dishes of side dishes with wine, paired with luminous glasses of wine, bright yellow candles flickering on the candlesticks, Prince Gong looked at Jiang Jun's face through the dim light, he asked very lightly, as if he didn't I would like to break the warmth of this room.
Returning late at night in the wind and snow, warming the wine and holding the lamp.
Like a traveler who has experienced wind and frost outside, no matter how hard it is, as soon as you return to your house, you can see your beloved with a lamp waiting for you quietly at the end of the dark and winding alley.
The cold outside seems to be cut off by the door of the small courtyard. After shaking off the exhaustion, you can drink a glass of warm wine offered by your beloved.The wine entered the throat and instantly warmed the body, and even the heart also warmed up, as warm as the bright sun in spring.
So warm, what a blessing!
"I have three plans for the Mannai state matter, but they can't be called clever plans," Jiang Jun said, "It's just a trick I didn't want to make wedding dresses for others—"
"Regardless of conspiracy and conspiracy, this king is willing to listen."
Jiang Jun laughed with a "puchi", he shook his head, and said a little helplessly: "My lord, you trust me so much, if I want to sell you, then you really have no place to die. Treat people with three , Jiang Jun was terrified—”
Prince Gong just smiled, with a gentle smile in his eyes and face.
He already knew that there must be another person hidden "under the skin" of Prince Gong. Although he really wanted to find out this person, Jiang Jun also knew that this was not the best time, so he coughed lightly and said:
"When I saw Qin Shen in the palace that day, the lord must have prepared to use him to restrain He Lanxun, and let He Lanxun have no skills and no chance to play tricks. It just so happens that I want to use this person, so I have to invite the lord when the time comes. Sell me a favor."
Prince Gong nodded: "Of course it can."
"Luo'e Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so we can only attack by surprise." The battle of Kuoye was a surprise attack, but at that time it was Wei Wu, a knight-errant from the rivers and lakes, who attacked instead of Ling Wu, the prince of the Jin Dynasty. Jiang Jun deliberately said "yes", just Looking at Prince Gong's reaction——
"Even if I, as a warlord, tamper with the troops in the army, it will be an excuse for Ling Cheng to fall for no reason." Prince Gong shook his head: "This method will not work."
He didn't mention the rebel army, nor did he mention the Jianghu people. It seems that he has perfectly substituted the "role" of King Gong, and he didn't exceed the outline, collapse the people's design, or overstep the thunder pool.
Jiang Jun raised his eyebrows. Since this is the case, he can only say: "I know, so I am not asking the prince to lead the army himself, but to find someone to lead the army to make a surprise attack. The prince does not need to come forward, and even after the surprise attack, he will not It will have nothing to do with the prince."
"so?"
"So I'm going to the army with you." Jiang Jun refilled another glass of wine for Prince Gong, and when he raised his head, he met Prince Gong's eyes straightly: "Although I know you didn't intend to let me go in the first place." — but I think you know that I'm not a canary in a cage."
Prince Gong looked into Jiang Jun's eyes, every slight movement in it was the strategic layout of mountains and rivers, as if he could see the earth-shattering killing cries and the neighing of war horses with just one glance, he really never planned to ask Jiang Jun to go——
It's already autumn now, although Yucheng is still infested by autumn tigers and the scorching heat is still there, but when you leave Qingling County and go north, it's going to be a bit colder if you walk a mile. It is covered with snow all year round.
Such weather...
He didn't want Jiang Jun to take risks, and he didn't want Jiang Jun to accompany him to intrigue and scheming with those villains from the capital in the army.
So he asked Ji Yu Jiangjun several days in advance, but Jiang Jun saw through his heart and still wanted to follow him.
Rationally, Prince Gong knew that what Jiang Jun said was right, that any war could not be just a war on paper, although it was decided to win thousands of miles away by strategizing, but the strategizing was also a military camp, and it was also a military camp stationed on a battlefield thousands of miles away.
Only when you are on the scene can you know the changing situation.
What Jiang Jun said is correct, only when he is on the battlefield can he come up with countermeasures according to the changes in the battle situation.Moreover, Jiang Jun is indeed not a canary, and he has never raised this person as a precious bird.
However, even if it is a roc that can soar in the nine heavens, he also hopes that he will be free from illnesses, disasters, and old injuries.
But since Jiang Jun insisted, Prince Gong could only sigh, and reluctantly agreed: "You can go, it's just..."
"The prince can't help himself in the army," Jiang Jun smiled confidently: "But Jiang Jun is not without the ability to protect himself, so the prince doesn't have to worry."
Prince Gong was taken aback, then looked at Jiang Jun's confident smile and bent his eyes, picked up the fine wine on the table and drank it all. In three days, he took people north to wait in Qingling County, and met Helan Xun. meet.
The original book didn't say much about the new emperor's brother-in-law, and only talked about his military achievements and achievements.
However, Jiang Jun, who saw He Lanxun for the first time, only had four words in his heart that were used out of date in the novel——xiemeikuangxuan.This man was born in the Western Regions, his mother was of Persian descent, he was even taller than Prince Gong by half a head.
Standing on his horse, his eyebrows and eyes are like sharp blades hanging upside down. Looking against the light, he really deserves the name of General Zhengyuan.
"I've met Prince Gong," He Lanxun smiled lightly, and didn't even get off his horse. He just cupped his hands slightly and smiled arrogantly: "I heard that there is a dancer in Qingling County who is very good at dancing." , I don’t know my lord—are you interested in watching it with me?”
He Lanxun is very good at causing trouble as soon as they meet.
Prince Gong wondered: "Could it be that the Persian beauty's dance is not graceful enough, and the general still wants to find a dancer in this countryside?"
He Lanxun gave a "haha" smile: "I'm used to big fish and meat, so it's inevitable that I sometimes want to eat some vegetables and radishes, my lord—you won't be willing to accompany me?"
It stands to reason that the position of prince is indeed more noble than that of a foreign relative, but now that He Lanxun is the general and Prince Gong is the military governor, if he sticks to the principle of military governor and does not accompany He Lan to have fun, then it means that he is not Prince An Le, the city is quite Shen used to be acting.
But if he accompanied He Lan to find some dancer, the opportunity to fight was delayed, and the battle failed, Ling Cheng would only take the opportunity to suppress him, saying that Prince Gong was an incompetent person, and there would be endless ways to clean up Prince Gong's mansion later on. .
Because he had expected this dilemma a long time ago, Prince Gong frowned, and said with a smile: "What kind of dancing girl, the general cares so much about you—I heard that you have a beautiful wife in your home in the Western Regions." Ten."
According to the original book, Helan Xun was born with a flirtatious nature, and he would take all men and women, and would not reject anyone who came.
Jiang Jun and Qin Shen were sitting in the carriage with the army, looking at Qin Shen in white clothes and holding the piano beside him, Jiang Jun sighed: He Lanxun is really a fighter in the scumbag.
"General," Li Yinshang couldn't help frowning and said, "After autumn, the weather in the north is changing, and yesterday's weather was different. The wind is strong and the clouds are blowing in the north. I'm afraid there will be rain and snow. Luo'e Mountain is also stationed in Mannai Prefecture, and this kind of weather is not a big problem for him—but it is very bad for us!"
He Lanxun raised his eyebrows, and many people in Zhengyuan's army focused their attention on Li Yinshang.
"If you stay in Qingling County for a few days, General, and when you encounter wind, frost, rain and snow while marching, Nahaler takes the opportunity to attack—" Li Yinshang shook his head again and again, and said with a worried expression: "Please think again."
He Lanxun looked at Li Yinshang and smiled strangely, but there was a dark, thin and capable lieutenant next to him with the same worried expression on his face.
"Li Yinshang," He Lanxun turned his horse's head and took two steps towards him, looking down at him contemptuously: "In the past, you were in the palace and served the general's sister dutifully. He fell out of favor in the cold, couldn't climb the emperor's dragon bed, but became his younger brother?"
Li Yinshang's face turned pale, but he still straightened his waist and said: "Your official and Prince Gong are innocent, the general can insult me, but don't forget your identity and belittle the current prince."
"Heh——" He Lanxun laughed nonchalantly, turned to King Gong and said, "Don't worry, I was joking with the prince. There are so many princes—how can you care about me?"
Prince Gong glanced at Li Yinshang, but said nothing.
"Furthermore——" He Lanxun suddenly raised Li Yinshang's chin with a folded riding whip: "Even if what you said is about to have wind and rain is true, Qingling County in Jinchao is rich in products. Can’t support 42 troops——?”
"If there is wind and rain, we will raise soldiers on the spot!"
After finishing speaking, he whipped Li Yinshang to the ground with a whip:
If it wasn't for this slut, how could that concubine Rong's concubine concubine get pregnant before the empress of the middle palace?
Li Yinshang was just a scholar, how could he bear this horsewhip, he clenched his lips and refused to bite, looking at He Lanxun's back with a pale face, and wanted to persuade him a few more words.
Prince Gong got off his horse at the right time to support him, and shook his head to signal that he didn't need to mention it any more.
At this moment, there was a "buzz" in the carriage, and the sound of plucking strings sounded, and the sound of the zither was pouring down like running water. After the whole army was stunned for a moment, He Lanxun let out a sneer, and reined in his horse to look at Prince Gong :
"It's been rumored that the prince is elegant. I didn't believe it. Now that I saw it, I didn't expect that the prince is really a flirtatious person who knows the cold and the hot. The warlord is here. The prince still has one or two lovers? Play and sing. violin?"
"It's easy to say, easy to say," Prince Gong smiled slightly, but showed an exaggerated worry: "The general will not want to steal someone's favor, will he? I bought this person with great difficulty!"
He Lanxun snorted disdainfully, thinking what about the royal relatives of Tianhuang Guihua, he is just a stupid thing who has never seen the world in the Northland, and the sound of the piano is just mediocre, so he has no interest in snatching it. .
So He Lan Xun said: "My lord, don't worry, even if you can let me eat a bite of the meat you gnawed on the spot, I'd rather see it rot there, and I won't touch a single bit of it."
Hearing what he said, Prince Gong smiled: "With the general's words, I feel at ease."
Prince Gong helped Li Yinshang to get on the horse, followed He Lanxun for a few steps, and suddenly there was a singing sound accompanied by the sound of the piano. words and sentences.
The man's singing is like the rhyme of Lin Laiquan, when it is mild, it is like the gurgling water in the mountains, and when it is passionate, it can be like the waves reflecting the sea. The melodious singing, accompanied by the sound of the piano, is amazing.
Most of the Zhengyuan Army are generals who have been in the army since childhood, so they can't understand the true meaning.
But their general He Lanxun, after hearing that voice, froze in place, as if struck by lightning.
Immediately, he turned his head a little bit in disbelief, staring at the carriage with his eyes wide open, as if he could see through the outer eaves of the carriage and see the people inside through the curtain.
How could he forget this voice, how could he forget it!
More than ten years ago, his younger sister was welcomed into the central palace by the emperor, and the power of the Helan family in the northwest was rising day by day.Loulan, Qiuci, and other large and small countries came to contact the Helan family one after another, intending to seek more benefits.
Their Helan family has strong financial resources and military power to protect them. Now with the blessing of the Jin Dynasty royal family, it can be said that although they have not been crowned king in the Western Regions, they have already controlled the lifeblood of the entire Western Regions.
However, in the mysterious desert of the Western Regions, there is still a place that is dreadful.
Both the Helan family and the royal family of the Jin Dynasty are in awe of the so-called "Holy Religion of the Western Regions" on the sacred mountain of the Western Regions. This group of people seems to know the art of magic. He Lan once witnessed them conjuring icicles and volcano.
The reason why He Lanxun has seen this kind of spell is precisely because more than ten years ago, he strayed into the forbidden area of the Holy Cult, but was finally rescued by a "saint" of the Holy Cult and took care of him tirelessly. Only then survived.
He Lan searched for a romantic life all her life, but she had a heart for that savior to live forever.He couldn't find it for many years, and he couldn't meet that person again. He only remembered the other person's appearance, but he didn't even know his name.
After that, He Lan searched for many people, and through those people, he searched for the shadow of his benefactor. Among them, there was a man from the Western Regions who was gentle and good at playing the long piano, and his singing voice was unparalleled, like the sound of heaven.
And more than ten years ago, when He Lanxun was weighing the pros and cons to marry the Queen of the Governor of Liangjiang, at the great celebration, the boy from the Western Regions came forward with a white suit and a piano, and asked him with a smile if he really wanted to marry Wang as his wife. wife.
He asked the question three times in a row, and He Lanxun answered it three times in a row, and at the end he even impatiently asked someone to drag this "plaything" down, so as not to be unruly and spoil his happy event.
The kid suddenly laughed, and when he laughed, there was a breeze all over him, and his beautiful black hair was scattered and turned into silver threads in that instant.He picked up the piano and dropped it, and under the extreme surprise of He Lanxun and the others——
He dug out his own eyes and has been blind ever since.
"He Lanxun, I was the one who was blind when I saved you. Now that I'm leaving, it's useless to keep these wrong eyes, so I will stay here as a gift for you. I wish you a beautiful wife and son-in-law."
——The only words he left to him were like sharp thorns that pierced He Lanxun's heart for more than ten years.For more than ten years, he searched in the Western Regions, but he couldn't find that boy named Luo Zhulang again.
He saw the wrong person to save him, but He Lanxun couldn't recognize his benefactor, and caused him to lose his eyes. .
Naturally, He Lanxun's wedding was not able to go on. The wife he later married was an ordinary eunuch girl in the Northwest, but whenever he saw the red wedding silk, He Lanxun would always think of the bloody pair that was left behind. eyes on the ground.
"Zhu Lang?!" He Lanxun never misunderstood his voice. He turned his horse's head and walked quickly to the carriage. His face was pale, his heartbeat fluctuated, and he stretched out his hand to lift the curtain.
"Ah? General!" Prince Gong hastily shot to stop him, standing between He Lanxun and the carriage: "General, didn't we agree just now! You, you definitely don't take what others like?!"
He Lanxun was taken aback for a moment, and then a very ferocious expression appeared on his face. He didn't care about etiquette, but grabbed Prince Gong's front: "Then you tell this general! Tell me—the carriage is loaded with who?!"
He had never been so groggy, nor had he been so frightened.
Because of his stupidity, he has missed him for so many years, and now we finally met, is it necessary to miss him again because of one of his stupid words?He Lan refused to accept his fate, so he couldn't let this person go.
"The king has already told the general just now." Prince Gong's face was normal, with a slight smile on his face: "This is a luthier that the king was looking for in the north. He can sing well, so I helped him. Redeemed and brought with me..."
"Did you touch him—!"
He Lanxun looked like an enraged beast, with red eyes, unable to listen to every word that Prince Gong said, jealousy and fear filled his heart, like a vine that suddenly grew wildly, consuming everything he had. Snatch away airtightly.
"This...general?" But a nice voice came from inside the carriage: "My lord has always treated me very well. After I follow my lord, I don't have to sell myself anymore."
What he said was very cute, but to He Lanxun's ears, it was like a bone-destroying poison|drug. He took two steps back with a pale face, his eyes full of disbelief: "What the hell... what happened..."
He lost his eyes, so he still wants to become a prostitute?
——What did he do to his benefactor more than ten years ago?
He Lanxun tugged at his bun in dismay.
Prince Gong hooked the corners of his mouth where he couldn't see, turned around but still looked surprised:
"What's the matter? General, do you know Qin Shen?"
"...Qin...shen?" He Lanxun almost choked out these two unfamiliar words from his throat.
Prince Gong nodded, and then He Lan shook his head as if looking for relief, as if he had aged several years: "No, I don't know...no...know..."
"Then general, shall we still look for the dancer girl?" Prince Gong's voice was loud, and he looked like a playful Prince An Le when he jumped on the horse.
But He Lanxun didn't have the desire to find joy, he waved his hand and asked the adjutant to lead the army forward at full speed——
After He Lanxun left, the adjutant who was following behind him heaved a sigh of relief, looked at He Lanxun complicatedly, and then stepped up to follow. His movements were not obvious, but he landed firmly on the ground. In Jiang Jun's eyes.
With a slight smile, Jiang Jun raised the curtain of the car and explained to a guard of Prince Gong: "He Lanxun is looking for the lean and dark lieutenant next to him, please help me find out—"
After Jinwei took the order, Jiang Juncai put down the curtain of the car with a faint smile, and looked at Qin Shen beside him with a calm face: "It turns out that Boss Qin is from the Western Regions, and his name is quite nice."
Qin Shen smiled faintly: "Luo Zhulang died ten years ago, my name is Qin Shen, Mr. Jiang, don't forget."
Although he knew about the grievances between him and He Lanxun, Jiang Jun somewhat thought that this person still had some affection for He Lanxun, but he didn't expect that this Master Qin would be fine if he was not emotional, and if he was emotional, he would have a heart-to-heart friendship.
But when unfeeling, it is even more fatal.
Prince Gong had secretly told Jiang Jun that Luo Zhulang was probably still a member of the Holy Cult of the Western Regions. He came out for Helan's apostasy, but he was let down. After Prince Gong rescued him back then, he came back to life little by little Master Qin who played the piano.
It's just that Qin Shen never sold himself, he just said that just to make He Lan feel so miserable.
Jiang Jun shrank his neck, determined not to provoke this kind of ruthless horn who could be ruthless enough to goug his eyes.
After Qin Shen's fuss, He Lanxun's original intention of embarrassing Prince Gong was directed at Qin Shen.Qin Shen sat in the carriage and didn't come out, let alone allow him to go in. One of the two was on the verge of collapse, but the other was obedient.
So are the most familiar strangers.
But this is the best way, He Lanxun has no time to make troubles, and the army marched very smoothly.
According to Jiang Jun and Prince Gong's prediction, it only took three days to set up camp under the southern slope of Luo'e Mountain from Qingling County.And the adjutant that Jiang Jun asked the guards to inquire about also has a clue——
His name is Baixi, and he is a poor boy.After several wars, the family moved to the interior of the Jin Dynasty, but the land and real estate disappeared during the migration, and they became completely poor.
He has been in the army for many years, has rich experience and is extremely capable, and he has his own plan in mind for the battle of Luo'e Mountain.
Jiang Jun curled the corners of his mouth, and he had a plan in mind - the surprise attack on Luo'e Mountain could be handed over to this Baixi: he is not a son of a noble family, so he doesn't need to worry about his family's political opinions and background; Wei, just enough to mobilize a small group of soldiers.
Putting the thick fox fur on his body, looking at the yellowing sky, Jiang Jun exhaled white hot air. The weather is getting colder and colder as Li Yinshang said, and it will be even worse if it encounters rain and snow. unfavorable.
"Master Qin, I'm afraid I will trouble you again—" Jiang Jun glanced at the quiet man sitting next to him, and said, "Let this General He Lan delay for a few days."
He Lanxun's mind is extremely confused now, and Bai Xi is in charge of matters in the military. If this continues, Bai Xi will definitely find a way to persuade He Lanxun to send troops to attack Luo'e Mountain and Mannai Prefecture by surprise. At that time, all military achievements will be remembered by He Lan .
The Chen family and Ling Cheng in Yucheng in the north cannot be allowed to form an alliance so quickly, and He Lanxun's power in the court and palace cannot be allowed to flourish, so even if there is a surprise attack, it must be done by Baixi secretly and completely ignored. He Lanxun's surprise attack.
Qin Shen smiled and nodded: "Young Master Jiang, you are polite, this is my job."
In fact, after getting along for a few days, Jiang Jun felt that the man beside him didn't look like a blind luthier, but like a monk meditating in meditation. , with smiles on their faces.
It's hard to imagine—he once gouged out his own eyes with his own hands.
Earlier, Jiang Jun was worried that He Lanxun's unrelieved appearance would shake Qin Shen's determination, but the blind luthier smiled lightly and said, "Then what's the point of me gouging out my eyes", completely dispelling Jiang Jun's doubts.
Qin Shen is smart and decisive. From the very beginning, he was not prepared to look back, nor was he prepared to humiliate himself.
In a lifetime, being stupid or blind once is enough to pay a lifetime price for it.
So, with Qin Shen's help, a feeling that seemed real but not real, and a little bit of ambiguity, made He Lanxun believe that Qin Shen still had feelings for him, and as long as he had feelings, he would no longer be so afraid Worry.
In the past few days, He Lanxun had time to spare.
After he was free, the general suddenly found that his army was already in Luo'e Mountain, and under the leadership of Baixi, he would soon have a considerable victory.
It's a good thing that things are going well, and Baixi is not greedy for military merits, he is a stupid guy who wholeheartedly serves the common people.
He Lanxun felt relieved about such a person.
But if the army breaks through Luo'e Mountain soon and captures Nahale more smoothly, the emperor will have no way to do anything about the things that the emperor secretly confessed to him, and there will be no chance to do so.
So, knowing that there might be rain and snow the next day, He Lanxun still ordered the army to station on the spot, and even ordered the food and grass officer to go out to receive supplementary military supplies from nearby counties and towns.
This order was ridiculous, but seeing Prince Gong standing with Li Yinshang, He Lanxun had no choice but to issue the military order.
When Baixi knew about the military order, he was deploying raiding archers on the mountain roads on both sides. After hearing this ridiculous military order, he cursed a few times violently on the spot:
"General, is he crazy?! Give up the great opportunity and choose to garrison in place?! What kind of food and grass are you still accepting? The sky is turning yellow, and there will be another storm tomorrow! The road in the mountain is muddy, so he is not afraid that Rongdi will come out halfway to rob us." Looting food?!"
The soldiers who followed Baixi were all his cronies, and they all beat their chests with anger, and couldn't accept it at all.
However, the military order is like a mountain, and they are all soldiers, and they have to obey.
The desperation of watching a piece of tender and fat meat slowly rotting in front of his eyes instantly permeated the hearts of this small group of soldiers.
"Since the military order is absurd, why doesn't the general march by himself?" A clear voice sounded, and Jiang Jun, who was dressed in a crimson fox fur, slowly walked out on the cold and hard dirt mountain road: "As an adjutant, General Bai can command the number of forward battalions." Thousands of cavalry, take advantage of tonight to march into the mountain—to go straight to the Nahale camp at the Luo'e Mountain Gate."
"You..." Bai Xi was stunned, and looked at Jiang Jun warily: "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is—" Jiang Jun frowned and smiled: "Does the general have the courage and courage to raid the Rongdi camp tonight?!"
"The most important thing is, does the general dare to use this power of beheading first and playing later to seek blessings for himself and the people?!"
"The most important thing is, general and all the soldiers, do you dare to fight this ridiculous order from someone who is full of enthusiasm and will never be manipulated by others, and will never obey the orders of people who don't understand the situation of the battle and can't tell the priorities?!"
Jiang Jun's words struck Bai Xi's heart, but Bai Xi never thought about it so much.
All he wanted was to be able to fight, to fight more, to repel the gang of Zirong and Di, and then return the people in the North to live in peace and contentment.However, He Lan found out that he turned back and acted rashly, which really broke the hearts of these soldiers.
Conquering captives is a sacred territory that cannot be underestimated in the hearts of many soldiers.
If you win this way, it's fine. If you don't win, you won't be able to put on the battle armor for many years.Bai Xi admitted that he was a little shaken, but the military order is like a mountain, he can ignore it, but——
The generals, the generals behind him, how could they not care?
Jiang Jun saw his worry, and said with a faint smile: "If the general seals up thousands of households at the right time, not to mention the thousands of soldiers in the Qianfeng Battalion, even the entire expeditionary army, the general can have the final say."
"you……"
"General, just do your own thing," Jiang Jun raised the corners of his mouth, "Jiang Jun promises that the general will not be in trouble for righteousness and brotherhood—there will probably be a heavy snow tonight, and everyone, please add some warming clothes." Winter clothes."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Jun didn't wait for Baixi's decision or everyone's surprise, he retreated perfectly from the grove where he appeared, turned around and left.
Jiang Jun didn't know what Baixi would do, but tonight—the entire expeditionary army, no one was destined to sleep.
After he retreated from the mountain road, he saw Prince Gong leading a jujube horse from a distance, as well as the quartermaster and several soldiers behind Prince Gong. Jiang Jun was taken aback, and hurried down the mountain a few steps:
"What? The prince is going out?"
"Yes, General He Lan said that the transportation of food and grass is a big deal, so let me personally sit in charge of the army."
"But..." Jiang Jun glanced at the top of the sky, the sky is always changing, if a storm comes at night, I'm afraid there will be a flash flood and it will be difficult to deal with, and food and grass will definitely be lost.
This matter was somewhat beyond Jiang Jun's expectations, and this He Lanxun really wanted to pick things up as soon as he was free.
"It's okay, I'll find a way to get away," Prince Gong smiled faintly, leaned forward and lowered his voice: "You are indispensable in the army, Qin Shen can't last long alone, success or failure depends on one stroke."
"You don't have to worry too much."
At this point, Jiang Jun couldn't stop him, so he could only watch as Prince Gong led his people away with the quartermaster.But when the night
