The Submissive Emperor

Drinking is not allowed in the barracks during wartime, and on weekdays it is only allowed to open up to drink when the generals are entertaining. As soon as this statement came out, everyone's tense heartstrings relaxed a lot, and even gave birth to a little bit of anticipation.Distinction between right and wrong and a degree of relaxation are what generals do.

Before Lou Jing came, he asked Yun Jiu to buy a whole carload of fine wine and two baskets of stewed meat in Jiuchang City, and transported them to the barracks before dark.

Men, especially those in the barracks, could go from hostile to fraternal with just one drink.

"The general is young and promising, and the young general admires him." Zhang Rao took the lead to walk in front of Lou Jing with a wine bowl in his hand.

Lou Jing smiled but said nothing, raised the wine bowl to touch him, and drank it down in one gulp.

Seeing that the general was so eloquent, everyone was eager to give it a try, and went over to pay respects one by one according to their rank.

"General, general, I, my name is Li Daniu, I'm a cook..." The commander of the handyman battalion stuttered a little. His face flushed red.

Lou Jing listened patiently to what he said, and drank the wine with a smile, "Food and grass are very important in the army. If you cook well, you can be a general."

"Really, really?" Li Daniu looked at General Zhennan's gentle and amiable smile, and smiled naively.

"Of course it's true, I'll make you a great general of pancakes later!" Zhang Rao smiled and grabbed the idiot by the neck, pulling him aside, so as not to continue to embarrass himself in front of the general.

Naturally, the wine for the soldiers cannot be the sweet and long-lasting peach blossom wine, it is all spicy spirits, everyone drank it very enjoyable, and Lou Jing sat in the main seat, and everyone who came came would not refuse a bowl. The bowl was dry, and the wine continuously flowed out from the corners of his lips, and sank into the front of his clothes along his neck, soon soaking the front of his clothes.

Xiao Chengjun shook the wine cup in his hand. He often drank light wine in the palace. Now he tasted this mellow strong wine, which had a special taste, but his whole body was indifferent and cold, with a sternness that was not angry and majestic, which made everyone feel uncomfortable. Don't dare to make mistakes.

"Mr. Yuan, let's have a drink too!" Zhang Rao, who was drunk, walked up to Xiao Chengjun and handed him a bowl of wine.

Xiao Chengjun looked at the rough pottery bowl in front of him, put down the white jade cup in his hand, and took it over, "Please."

The rough pottery bowl was paired with cheap spirits. After one mouthful, the strong alcohol smell burned from the tip of the tongue to the chest and abdomen. Apart from being spicy, there was also an unconcealable sense of refreshment. Xiao Chengjun had never drank like this before, and suddenly felt Drinking like this is really a pleasure.

"Military division, you can hold a lot of alcohol. It's different from the scholars I've met before." Zhang Rao had originally intended to play tricks, but who would have thought that the general's military division was not a soft-boiled persimmon.

"I'm not a scholar either." Xiao Chengjun smiled slightly, and looked up at Lou Jing, his beautiful eyes were stupefied with strong alcohol, and he was looking at him without blinking, full of tenderness.

The banquet stopped at midnight, and everyone fell crookedly in the middle tent. Xiao Chengjun helped the general, whose feet were limp from drinking, to go into his tent.

After getting out of the middle tent, the cool night wind blew away some drunkenness, Lou Jing looked up at the crescent moon in the sky, "It's April."

Xiao Chengjun looked up and saw that the crescent moon was like a golden thread, hooking in the deep night sky, "Yes..." In the blink of an eye, it has been a month since he left Beijing.

"From here to Minzhou, it only takes three days." Lou Jing leaned on her husband's shoulder and followed step by step, "Stay with me for two more days, and I will go with you."

Xiao Chengjun touched his hot head, "If you stay here forever, I can build a palace at the junction." He has been a feudal lord for a few years, but fortunately Lou Jing is not far away.

"Okay, I'll build the Zhennan General's Mansion next to the palace." Lou Jing said with a smile, but her eyelids were so heavy that she couldn't open it.

Xiao Chengjun dragged him for a while, seeing that there was no one around, he simply hugged the drunk General Zhennan, the man didn't resist and consciously nestled into his arms, obediently leaning against his neck , found a comfortable place to sleep.Provoking Xiao Chengjun chuckled, bowed his head and kissed him on the face.

Few nobles in the capital can drink Lou Jing, so this is the first time I saw him drunk, and I didn't expect to become so obedient.Like a sharp-mouthed cat that usually rolls around and scratches at the corners of people's clothes, but now softly retracts its paws for him to knead.

In the early morning of the next day, Lou Jing woke up and saw His Royal Highness the Prince of Min who was sleeping soundly in his arms, completely dressed in underwear, and immediately felt... extremely regretful!

You shouldn't be a hero yesterday, drank so much alcohol, didn't even have the strength to pretend to be drunk to take advantage of it, and fell asleep directly!

"Hmm..." Lou Jing opened her mouth in dissatisfaction, biting Xiao Chengjun's chin once and for all.

Xiao Chengjun opened his eyes helplessly, rubbed Lou Jing's head, "Are you hungry so early?"

Lou Jing turned over and pressed His Highness King Min under her body. Looking at that handsome face, the handsome facial features became deeper in the morning light, and she felt her breathing tightened. Say hello, "I'm hungry here!"

"Hmm..." Xiao Chengjun snorted softly, and quickly supported him, "Stop making trouble, don't you want to order soldiers?"

"You didn't apologize to me sincerely." Lou Jing said dissatisfiedly, and agreed to compensate him last night, but...

"You fell asleep by yourself, what can I do?" Xiao Chengjun chuckled, pulled off the guy riding on him, turned over and continued to sleep.

Lou Jing pursed her lips, got up and put on her armor, and before leaving the tent, she didn't forget to tuck the quilt for Xiao Chengjun, and then left the tent full of sorrow, to practice the army he had just taken over.

Miss Yang's family couldn't stay in the village for long, so Lou Jing practiced soldiers in the morning and got a general idea of ​​the strength of the battalion, so she ordered [-] infantry and [-] cavalry, and left the camp after lunch, heading straight for Jiuchang County .

"Does your arm hurt?" Xiao Chengjun looked at Lou Jing who was riding alone, feeling a little worried.

"It doesn't matter." Lou Jing buckled up her silver helmet, put on a spear and a saber, and got on her horse neatly.

His saber was buried in the river, but fortunately the soldier talisman was tied around his neck, so it was not washed away by the flood. Fortunately, it was not a precious sword. Lou Jing didn't have a special weapon. it's the same.

Yang Xing had been waiting outside the Great Wall with his yamen servants until dusk, when he saw the late army, he couldn't help but feel anxious, he didn't come until it was getting dark, and he couldn't fight at night, wouldn't it be a surprise? The bandits on Mount Jiuqi escaped at night, but what should they do?

Lou Jing took the paper handed over by Yang Xing, glanced at it, "Is it credible?" The drawing on the paper was the anti-cloth in the cottage, and the kitchen and toilet were roughly marked.

"Both the bandit leader before and the second leader this time have painted, this is the drawing of Xiaguan Zongqi." Yang Xing hesitated, and took out two original drawings to Lou Jing.

Lou Jing took a look and saw that the defense cloth had changed, but the positions of the kitchen, latrine, and granary had not changed, "That's enough, thank you, Mr. Yang."

"General, it's getting late, shall we attack the mountain?" Infantry Colonel Wang Zhi looked melancholy at the rugged Jiuqi Mountain. The narrow mountain road must be turned off without cavalry.

Lou Jing curled her lips slightly, and glanced at You Yunwei who was beside her.

Yun Er had already redrawn the copycat map with a strange drawing method. At first glance, it was as difficult to recognize as a ghost drawing, but after handing it over to Yun San and Yun Shiyi who were in charge of assassination, the two took a few glances. Then he nodded slightly, and raised his foot into the dense forest.

"Enclose the mountain, set up camp, and start a gang!" Lou Jing raised his hand and gave a very simple order.

Wang Zhi and Zhang Rao looked at each other, a group of young generals couldn't figure it out, but they didn't need to attack the mountain at night, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly followed Lou Jing's order to surround the mountain.

Mount Jiuqi is a group of mountains that stretches for tens of miles, but the one where the cottage is located is a solitary peak with cliffs everywhere, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are only two roads up and down the mountain.Lou Jing ordered 500 people to guard a crossing, and the rest were stationed under the gentle slope to the south, sealing off the entire downhill road.

The people set up camp unhurriedly, lighting a fire and cooking, which made the bandits in the village very anxious.

"Report--Da Boss, it's not good, the officers and soldiers are coming to attack the mountain!" The mountain patrolling staggered and ran back to the village.

"What!" The bandit leader of Mount Jiuqi was startled and shouted, "Fourth brother, hurry up and lead someone to guard the entrance of the mountain!"

An hour later.

"Report—the master, those officers and soldiers have camped at the foot of the mountain!" The mountain patrolling people hurried back to the village.

"Is this trying to trap us?" The bandit leader didn't know, so he asked people to inquire again.

Another hour.

"Report—the boss, they're starting a fire to cook." The mountain patrolling ran back to the village out of breath.

The bandits were completely dumbfounded. Should this be defending or fleeing?Finally, the bandit leader gritted his teeth. These officers and soldiers must have felt that it was too late to go up the mountain. The food in their cottage was enough for several months. The mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Slowly pack up the soft belongings, and find a good way to fight out.

At night, there was silence in the barracks, except for the sound of patrolling footsteps.

"Huh? General Wei, what do you think it is?" The patrolling soldier exclaimed, and asked Wang Wang, who was on duty at night.

Wang Zhi raised his head and saw a place close to the top of the mountain. Suddenly, the flames shot up into the sky, and the chaotic shouts from the cottage were heard here. He immediately raised his legs and walked towards Lou Jing's camp.

"Report to General, a fire suddenly broke out in the cottage." Wang Zhi stood outside the tent and reported loudly.

Lou Jing raised her head from her husband's neck, and yawned, "Order, strictly guard the several passes down the mountain, and don't let anyone go."
