Deep ice

Then, He Yan got on his horse.

The banners fluttered like blood patterns on them, but there was a big word '飞'.

He Yan walked for a long time, couldn't help turning his head, but saw that the dragon chariot still hadn't turned back.

Yuan Jing stood at one place and was also looking towards this side.

With the sound of horseshoes, the man's blade disappeared.

Falling flowers rustled, the man's eyebrows and eyes gradually drifted away.

-

After marching overnight for three days, they finally arrived.

When the bandits heard that Daping's reinforcements were approaching, they were afraid of being attacked, so they set up camp thirty miles away, waiting for an opportunity to move.

Ning Yueguan stared at He Yan for a long while, her temples frosted white.

"Master Fei... Master Fei?"

When Tian Chongguang saw He Yan, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Master He, you are finally here."

He Yan took off his helmet and handed it to the lieutenant behind him, "Why don't you see Zhao Li?"

Tian Chongguang said: "Master Zhao, he died in battle two days ago."

He Yan said coldly: "In this way, we will avoid finding him to settle accounts."

Ning Yueguan stood on the side in a daze, hesitated to speak.

Tian Chongguang turned his head to look at Ning Yueguan, "Lord Ning, didn't I tell you the reason for that incident? Why did you still call him Lord Fei after meeting someone?"

Only then did Ning Yueguan come back to her senses, she clasped her hands into fists, and burst into tears immediately,

"General, you are here."

It is said that in the early years, when He Yan led the troops to the north, Ning Yueguan was still his lieutenant general. He has been called so by these years, and He Yan has long been used to it.

On the contrary, when He Yan saw Ning Yueguan, he thought of his domineering daughter, and his attitude was very cold.

Tian Chongguang's face was full of sorrow, "Master He, if you go south alone, you are not afraid of the instability of the court?"

He Yan said: "Why don't I pass a note to the emperor and transfer you back, it won't be of much use if you stay here."

Tian Chongguang spent these days in the southeast, worried all day long, and couldn't bear it any longer. He couldn't hide his joy when he heard He Yan's words, but he hesitated for a moment, "Although this is said, the emperor may not agree... "

He Yan waved his hand, "I dare not say it for a long time, but now he should be quite honest."

Ning Yueguan was alone and sad for a long time. Seeing that He Yan didn't respond at all and was tired of crying, he wiped the corners of his eyes with the lapel of his clothes, "General, the emperor is too violent. There is no comparison to the general's expectations. Moreover, the general has military power in his hands. He has made great achievements, so I just In the morning and evening."

He Yan just glanced at him, "How many people do you still have here?"

Ning Yueguan said, "It's about [-] at the moment."

He Yan was surprised: "The [-] reinforcements will be ruined by you so quickly?"

Ning Yue closed her eyes with embarrassment, "General, every time the thieves attack the city, there are countless casualties. It is a miracle that they can survive until now."

He Yan said: "How many enemy troops are there outside the city?"

Tian Chongguang said: "About 20."

He Yan's face sank slightly, "Go to the city wall."

Ning Yueguan was taken aback, "General, it won't work, there are too many arrows on the city wall."

He Yan said: "Take the shield and go up to the city wall."

Ning Yueguan didn't know what kind of medicine He Yan was selling in the gourd. Seeing his sullen face, he didn't dare to ask more questions, so he sent someone to find a few iron shields, and put them on the city wall.

After the three of them went up, He Yan pushed aside the soldier holding the shield in front, put one hand on the rough wall, and looked at the enemy camp.

In the distance, there are dots of white tents, hidden in the greenery, with occasional smoke from cooking.

Seeing that He Yan was fine, Tian Chongguang boldly stepped forward, "Master He?"

He Yan pointed to the void, "Did you see those military tents?"

Ning Yueguan pulled her neck, "Look at it."

He Yan frowned, "Look at what it looks like, the 20 army is supposed to be a claim."

Tian Chongguang thought for a moment, "Of course, looking at the number of tents, it doesn't seem like there are many people."

Ning Yueguan said: "There are always more than us."

He Yan said: "You claim to be 30, but you can also deter the enemy's heart."

Ning Yueguan said: "The humble job has already claimed [-] yuan..."

He Yan squinted at him, "That's all you can do."

Tian Chongguang said: "I wonder when my lord plans to attack?"

He Yan snorted coldly, "Attack? If I don't know the details of the thief, I will definitely not rush out."

Tian Chongguang said: "Then according to what your lord wants..."

He Yan said: "The tortoise can't shrink."

Ning Yueguan looked sideways, "General, why are you just like this old man?"

He Yandao: "The thieves travel long distances and go north to attack the city. They must be more exhausting than you and me. I will show the weakness to the thieves first, and wait until they can't help but take the initiative to send troops, and then test the truth. If they are strong, they will divide their shares and retreat. Take advantage of the victory and pursue."

Tian Chongguang hesitated a little, "My lord, I received a secret letter from Governor Lin the day before yesterday, saying that you promised to borrow troops for half a month, and I hope you will promise to return all the money when it is due. In this way, we can't delay... "

He Yan was expressionless, "Don't worry about him, it never counts when I talk to him."

Ning Yue Guan repeatedly nodded, "This old man can testify, to be honest, Governor Lin is better than this old man in defending the city."

Tian Chongguang twitched the corners of his mouth, but he couldn't say anything more, so he could only secretly feel sorry for Lin Chang in his heart.

He Yan turned to Tian Chongguang, "Next, in addition to defending the city, two teams will be selected to come out and publicize notices outside the city day and night, saying that the emperor Long Yan was furious and sent 30 troops to the south, vowing to level the southeast."

Tian Chongguang nodded in response, "Let's do it here."

Let's say that the Liu thieves knew that the 30 reinforcements of the Ping Army had arrived, so they dared not attack rashly.

Until June, the lotus lotus is pointed, and Yingming Yan turns.

The thief finally couldn't take it anymore, and in order to guard against fraud, he sent [-] fine cavalry to test it out.

However, He Yan had already sharpened his sword and was just waiting for a try.

Ning Yue had been guarding the city for more than half a year. For the first time, the gates of the city were opened. He Yan led [-] elite troops and rushed straight into the enemy's line.

In northern Xinjiang, the North Wind Goshawk.

A general stood on the top of the wall of the border city, looked at the scimitar cavalry outside the city, looked up to the sky and howled mournfully, saying that what thief misunderstood me, the gods and gods were all angry, and died early and passed away early.

I also finally know that that sentence of the day has its own way, in the final analysis, there is only the word 'cheat'.

However, he had no choice but to defend the city for several months, writing memorials every day, criticizing him in words and writing, and impeaching Dushi He.

However, after the memorial was gone, everything was lost and there was no information.

Royal study.

Yuan Jing looked at Lin Chang's notebook, but threw it aside without opening it.

He Yan finally collected more than half of the salary he asked for, and he was being escorted out of Beijing two days ago, heading southeast.

Xi Lian brought a cup of tea, put it in Yuan Jing's hand, and then bowed back.

A young eunuch rushed in a few steps from the outer hall, lowered his head in a respectful voice, "Report to the emperor, the Minister of the Ministry of War asks to see you."

Yuan Jing put down his pen, "Xuan——"

The little eunuch responded, turned around and walked out, and not long after, he welcomed the minister into the inner hall.

The Minister of the Ministry of War knelt on the ground and kowtowed, his voice trembling,

"Report to the emperor, a great victory in the southeast! Several battles in succession, the Ping army was like a broken bamboo, killed more than [-] thieves, and retreated three hundred miles from the enemy."

Yuan Jing sat quietly for a while, his eyes were devoid of the usual hostility, they were full of disbelief.

Seeing that he was silent, the minister raised the battle report above his head, "Your Majesty, I have just received the letter, and I really can't wait to write the excerpt and play it tomorrow, so I rushed to announce the good news to the emperor. Lord Fei owes much to this great victory." Zhiwei."

-

Tian Chongguang always felt that it was quite valuable for him to stay in the southeast and not return to Beijing.

In the past few months, I have thoroughly seen how cunning this man is.

After the first battle to find out the truth of the opponent, the next step is repeated torture.

If the enemy retreats, he will pursue, if the enemy attacks, he will flee. The most abominable thing is that the soldiers are divided into two groups.

But just after the enemy retreated, He Yan was in a hurry to transfer those 10 people back to northern Xinjiang.

Although Tian Chongguang was puzzled, his eyes could not hide his admiration.

"Master He is not afraid that the bandits will come back?"

He Yan sighed: "Why are you not afraid, but if the soldier doesn't return it, I'm afraid there is really no need to return it."

Tian Chongguang said: "That's right, it's been a whole season since my lord borrowed soldiers. I think Lord Lin must have suffered a lot for this."

He Yan nodded his head lightly, and then said in a deep voice, "We need to hurry up to recruit soldiers while the thieves are retreating temporarily."

After thinking about it again, he said, "The salary you asked for before you leave hasn't arrived yet?"

Tian Chongguang exclaimed and patted his head repeatedly, "I actually forgot about this. The payment has already arrived yesterday. I roughly counted it, about 100 million taels."

He Yan was taken aback, "So much?"

Then he said quietly: "He looks a bit like a good wife."
