wait for me to be king

Chapter 16 pick out

After learning of Lin Jin's death and Xie Changfeng's promise, Lin's pregnancy settled down at a miraculous speed.

Even the doctor was amazed, he thought that this lady would definitely have a miscarriage, but he didn't expect that the miscarriage was successful.

"Dai County can't live anymore, please let Madam come back to Yanmen Pass with me." Xie Changfeng looked at the plain white Lin, and sighed, "Madam's most urgent task is to take good care of the baby, don't be overjoyed or sad."

Lin's face was calm and pale as paper, she touched her stomach, this is the last continuation of the Lin family.

"What the general said is that I have asked Qingping to pack up her things and leave at any time."

"...Madam's sorrow is changing, think about father-in-law, he still needs you to comfort him." Xie Changfeng looked into Lin's empty eyes, and said, "Father-in-law is still at the Piantou Pass, and there are Huns wandering outside the pass. How negligent..."

Lin nodded heavily, "Don't worry, I will write to my father."

When returning to Yanmen Pass, Xie Changfeng and his party moved as slowly as snails because they brought Lin Shi and Bai Lu who were pregnant, and Qi Yuan who had just recovered from illness.

The people of Dai County also began to evacuate. Some of the family members of the officers and soldiers went to Yanmen Pass with Xie Changfeng's convoy, and some of the people scattered to nearby counties. Immediately, Yanmen Pass became desolate both inside and outside.

The granary of Dai County was jointly opened by Dai County Magistrate, Xie Changfeng and Qi Yuan. Part of the grain was distributed to the people, and Xie Changfeng took the rest back to Yanmen Pass.

At this moment, the lights inside and outside Yanmen Pass were brightly lit, and all the soldiers in the Chinese army commander's tent gathered together, and everyone was listening to the soldier who reported the letter telling the details of the Daijun War.

"At the beginning, everyone didn't realize that the Huns were attacking. It was just when the sun was setting and preparing meals. The soldiers were not wearing armor and carrying weapons. When the Huns cavalry charged, they were only 2000 meters away from the camp. In the blink of an eye The barracks were smashed to pieces, and most of the soldiers died under the Huns' cavalry."

"Only some of the soldiers who hadn't had their turn to get their meal got on their horses in time, and they retreated while blocking the Xiongnu. General Liu led everyone to charge several times, and let the remaining soldiers return to Daijun. When we returned, it was already too late, the gate of Daijun was closed, and General Liu died in front of the gate of Daijun..."

Click!

Xie Changfeng had no expression on his face, and directly crushed the armrest at his hand.

General Liu...

The soldiers of Daijun did not often face the Xiongnu, and the only one who dared to lead the charge was Liu Qingdong who stayed in Daijun.

Huge anger rose in Xie Changfeng's heart. If Daijun Sheriff hadn't died, he even wanted to go back and stab that bastard to death.

"Is Daijun an idiot? Can't you let General Liu go back and close the city gate?!" Wang Zhuang scolded directly, "Those brothers who rushed to cover were abandoned like this? I'm going to kill him!! "

The surrounding soldiers also looked resentful, Xie Changfeng raised his hand, "Be quiet, you continue to talk."

"When the Xiongnu attacked the city, most of the soldiers and horses of Yindai County died outside the city. There were no soldiers in the city, and the top of the city was in danger. Defensive, this is what withstood the offense on the first day."

The soldier had tears in his eyes, and he said while crying, "The Huns attacked again on the second day, General Lin was killed, the city was broken, the Huns flooded into Dai Commandery, and all the [-] people in Dai Commandery..."

For a moment, only the howling and crying of the soldier remained in the tent, and everyone else was silent.

After a while, Xie Changfeng said, "I have a few questions to ask."

He got up and walked up to the soldier, "Where was Daijun Garrison when the barracks was attacked by the Huns?"

The soldier gritted his teeth and said, "The garrison is invited by the county guard and is not in the army."

"Very good." Xie Changfeng said word by word, "Is he still alive?"

The soldier simply said, "He was hacked to death by General Lin."

"Good job!!" Wang Zhuang blurted out, "You should be hacked to death!!"

Xie Changfeng glared at Wang Zhuang, even though everyone thought so in their hearts, they couldn't say it directly!

"Secondly, has General Lin's remains been preserved?"

The soldier shook his head, "That's not clear."

Xie Changfeng said again, "Third, who will lead the remaining troops?"

The soldier replied, "It's Lieutenant Ning Wu Ning!"

Xie Changfeng felt relieved, as long as Ning Wu is not dead, "How long will it take to arrive?"

"It is estimated that it is only a day or two later than the end."

Xie Changfeng silently calculated, that is to say, tomorrow morning, the remaining soldiers will retreat to Yanmen Pass.

He nodded, "I see, you go down and rest."

After the soldier retreated, Xie Changfeng looked at the soldiers in the tent, and finally landed on Colonel Xiao, "Captain Xiao, please explain to me why there are so many fewer Hun soldiers outside the pass, but you didn't notice it? "

Colonel Xiao blushed with shame, and he knelt down in the middle, "The last general is guilty!"

There were about 1000 Xiongnu soldiers and horses outside Yanmen Pass, but it was not until the Daijun City was destroyed that the scouts in Yanmen Pass found out that the Huns soldiers and horses that had been wandering around Yanmen Pass had already retreated, and only 5000 people remained. And the other more than [-] soldiers and horses have already detoured to Shanggu and Yuyang, and joined the Huns there and headed south!

In other words, after the failure of the first day's attack, most of the Huns outside the pass retreated the next day, but the scout battalion never found out the news!

Xie Changfeng closed his eyes, and slowly suppressed the anger in his heart. After a while, he said, "Record the fifty army sticks first. All the teams of the scout battalion are under my jurisdiction. As for you..."

"This general promises you to take the crime and make meritorious service. If the battle goes well, you will be reinstated as an official. If you make another mistake, come and see me!"

"Yes!!" Lieutenant Xiao's eyes were red, he kowtowed heavily, then turned and retreated.

Xie Changfeng dealt with the scout battalion's major defeat resolutely, and all the soldiers were silent for a while.

"It is estimated that the remaining troops will return tomorrow." Xie Changfeng glanced at everyone, "Switch, let them in, but I need you to keep your eyes open and check everyone carefully for me, those who don't know, those who don't know , All people with unknown origins will be locked up, and those who cause trouble will be cut off immediately, and I will take care of it if something goes wrong, understand?"

"Yes! The general obeys orders!!"

"Nowadays, there are quite a few people in Shanyin and Dai County in the pass, as well as relatives and family members of the officers and men, plus the remaining troops that will return tomorrow. It can be said that today's Yanmen Pass is mixed with fish and dragons. There may be many fish in troubled waters. Specifically, How to do it, you know in your own mind."

"Food and grass are the most important thing. The troops guarding the grain and grass must patrol day and night, and there must be no accidents."

"Calculate all the young and strong in the pass, and organize them into militia groups to assist in the defense. The old and weak women in the pass will go to the city to help. I will not allow anyone to hide in a safe place and watch coldly during the war!"

Wang Zhuang said abruptly, "General, who are you referring to?"

"Anyone!" Xie Changfeng said bluntly, "Pregnant women and young children are not counted."

He looked at the crowd, "What else do you want to say?"

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.

"No more? Disband then!"

On the second day, as Xie Changfeng expected, Ning Wu appeared outside Yanmen Pass with the remaining soldiers and horses.

Ning Wu was covered in wounds, and his complexion was tired from the vicissitudes of life. The moment he saw Xie Changfeng, the grief he had suppressed finally vented out.

"I'm sorry, old brother Daijun..."

His eyes were red, his whole body was trembling, and he couldn't cry.

"They're all dead...they're all dead."

Ning Wu is from Daijun, and there is still an old father and wife at home. Daijun city has been destroyed, and there is nothing left.

Xie Changfeng patted Ning Wu's shoulder heavily, and said in a deep voice, "Then let the Huns who entered the pass be buried with them."

Ning Wu nodded fiercely, his heart filled with hatred, "Not one will be let go!"

"Ah! Not one of them will be spared!"

Following the surviving soldiers and horses retreating to Yanmen, there were many nobles from Dai County. After they arrived at Yanmen Pass, they immediately asked for accommodation and food matching their identities. Xie Changfeng picked up his spear and wanted to stab these bastards to death. Qi Yuan hurriedly depress.

"If General Xie is troubled by this matter, why not leave it to me." Qi Yuan sighed, "If General wants to lead the army in the future, it's best not to offend them too much."

As the eldest son of the acting king, Qi Yuan lives in the humble Jingbian Temple, eats bran and swallows vegetables all day long, and still has no complaints. All he needs to say is that you are more noble than my Highness, and everyone shuts up immediately. .

Of course, Qi Yuan also gained the prestige and hatred of the Daijun clan.

Xie Changfeng sneered in private, "Your Highness doesn't want to take the opportunity to subdue these big clans?"

Qi Yuan said frankly, "The safety of Yanmen Gate is more important than these scumbags, besides..."

He looked at Xie Changfeng with a smile, "Those guys are not worth my troubles, but General Xie...haha."

Xie Changfeng raised his eyebrows, with a half-smile, "What? Do you want me to serve you faithfully?"

Qi Yuan's eyes lit up, "Compared to my second brother, I still have confidence."

"With just a few words, you want me to make a choice?" He, Xie Changfeng, isn't that cheap!

Qi Yuan said, "Whatever the general wants, Yuan will do everything he can!!"

Xie Changfeng said casually, "How about you sleep with me all night?"

"..." Qi Yuan rubbed his ears, what did he hear just now?

Xie Changfeng also seemed to be stunned, the words just blurted out completely subconsciously, at this moment he came back to his senses, looked at Qi Yuan carefully, only to find that Qi Yuan looks quite pleasing to the eye!

Remembering that since he came to this world, he seemed to have never vented his anger, so he smiled.

Will Qi Yuan agree to his conditions?Pull it down, definitely not!

If not, then you might as well use this reason to refuse.

So Xie Changfeng looked at Qi Yuan with a half-smile, and repeated, "What? Didn't your Highness hear you clearly? I mean, if you stay with me for one night, then I'll consider your Highness's proposal, how about it?"

Qi Yuan's expression suddenly turned cold, "Is General Xie joking?"

"How could it be?" Xie Changfeng deliberately leaned forward, "I'm very sincere!"

"Remember what I said before, I'm doomed to have no offspring?" Xie Changfeng stared at Qi Yuan closely, "I'm like Longyang, so naturally I won't touch other women, Mrs. Lin..."

After a pause, Xie Changfeng said nonsense, "Mr. Lin is the main wife, if she has no children, she can't live with herself, and that Bailu..."

"It's just a trouble your aunt gave me."

Xie Changfeng reached out and lifted Qiyuan's chin, "So I really need a companion..."

Before he finished speaking, Qi Yuan couldn't listen anymore, he raised his hand to open Xie Changfeng's hand, and slammed the door straight out.

Xie Changfeng sneered, very good, it should be quiet from now on.
