[Red House] How to escape from a broken ship

"Oh, by the way, how is His Highness Seventh?" Situ Hao really cared about this issue.He led troops, and the king of Chu was in Shuzhou, so he was considered a comrade-in-arms.

Jia Yan was very respectful: "Don't worry, General, Qi Ye is very good, but needs a little training. The doctor told me not to work hard."

The two exchanged greetings with smiles on their faces. Until the end of the welcome ceremony, Jia Yan expressed some encouragement to the senior military officers in the big tent: You will definitely make contributions to the country under the leadership of the general. days in Beijing.

When everyone retreated, only Jia Yan and Situ Hao were in the big tent, Situ Hao said: "I just came here, have you seen the small tent next to my big tent? Nan'an is there."

Perhaps because they were all generals leading the army, Situ Hao felt a little sorry for Yan Lue, King of Nan'an County. It's not that Yan Lue is incompetent, but after losing the battle, the defeated general is not brave enough to speak out. "When I first arrived in Daying, Yan Lue committed suicide once. He hanged himself. Now he stays in the tent every day and never comes out. He is arrogant but lost the battle."

Jia Yan was afraid of this. Fortunately, Yan Lue did not die. If he really died, the king of Chu would not be able to hold him, and the emperor would not be able to deal with him separately.Death is a big deal for people, and they all commit suicide to apologize, what else can they do to him?Even Nan'an County Prince's Mansion is not easy to pursue, but... Jia Yan looked at Situ Hao who looked regretful, nodded and said: "The County King also made great achievements in battle, who knew that he capsized in this gutter."

"Yes," Situ Hao sighed, "It's a pity."

"About this," Jia Yan quickly continued, "Qi Ye also felt that the county king was a pity, so he asked the subordinate officials to ask the county king. Dare to ask the general, how was the situation in the camp when you came to reorganize the army?"

Situ Hao said: "In fact, it didn't take much effort to organize the army. Yan Lue tried his best to keep the camp until the end, repelling the two attacks of the Fan army. I guess, this is also one of the reasons that stimulated the Fan Wang to ask him to sue for peace, so At present, the army of the vassal state has withdrawn from the West Coast. Tens of thousands of soldiers have been reduced due to illness, all of which are due to unacceptable conditions. But staying here for a long time is definitely not the blessing of the imperial court."

Jia Yan also understands this truth. He took over Situ Kuo's responsibility for coordinating money and food, and only when he actually handled some things did he realize why his father-in-law Lin Hai felt sorry for the household department when he mentioned the war.A grown man needs to eat more than half a catty of grain every day, and this is when he is not tired, not including salt and other meat and vegetables.With an army of [-] outside, it really costs money to move half a step.If the war can make great progress, that's fine, but this war is doomed to end without a problem. There is indeed no other bright spot except for throwing corpses...

Regardless of geographical or practical considerations, imaginary armies entering and destroying the country are nonsense, and a little calculation shows that it is not worth it.

After the king of Chu took charge of Shuzhou, he mobilized many soldiers nearby, but he also transferred more than 1 soldiers from the camp to return to his original territory.Now the Xihai Yanzi Camp has less than 10 people, and of course they are not in the same place, including the five camps of the Chinese Army Camp, which are all scattered.Today, in order to welcome Lao Jun, all the generals gathered together with their relatives. After Situ Hao talked with Jia Canjun, he greeted the officials of Lao Jun.

Before Jia Yan followed Situ Hao out of the big tent, Situ Hao held his hand and said repeatedly: "Joining the army must pass on my thoughts to His Highness the King of Chu."

"General, please don't worry," Jia Yan smiled, "it's natural, but the matter of the vassal state, I have to look at it again." Situ Hao understood what he meant, and the two came to the reception banquet together.After saying a few words on the scene, everyone began to drink freely. Those who were eligible to enter the big tent were all officers above the guerrilla generals. Jia Yan glanced at them, and it seemed that these days had also suffocated them.

After drinking for three rounds, when the atmosphere was just right, suddenly a bearded general came over with a wine jar and asked loudly: "I'm not going to risk my life, I want to ask Jia Canjun something, I don't know if he can answer it for me." no?"

Jia Yan was taken aback, and looked at Situ Hao, but Situ Hao was more shocked than him.He scolded: "It's the reception banquet, you must not be rude, and don't back down!"

But the other party seemed determined to speak, and the bearded man took off his upper body armor, and his body was covered with scars.He asked: "I just rely on this to ask for advice on joining the army. Is it not qualified?" Some people around him were about to stop him, and the person shouted: "It is true that we will lose our troops here, but the opposite side is only a tiny country. The □□ army will surely crush them to death, why are there peace talks!"

Jia Yan's tone was very calm, so calm that it was almost indifferent: "Because the other party asked for peace. The general doesn't need to say too much, I dare to ask the general, the so-called army you said is that you expect the imperial court to send people to increase the number and continue to fight. go down?"

The bearded general hiccupped: "Shouldn't we continue belching? Do we have to go back to Beijing with our tails between our faces!"

Originally, when he made trouble, others were just jokes and indifferent, but when it comes to this, it seems that those who don't speak are cowards... The others can't sit still.Situ Hao frowned, and made a gesture to order his lieutenant to go out and tell the guards to be ready to arrest people at any time, and told Jia Yan in a low voice: "These are all Nan'an's confidants and beloved generals."

Oh, it turned out that someone wanted to wash their face under the guise of "revenge for the country" and "revenge for the country". Jia Yan sneered, not afraid of washing his face.

"When I came to the camp in the early days, the war has reached this point, and you still think you can fight." Jia Yan smiled mockingly: "It has been half a year, except for a big defeat, what have you brought? If you really want to fight, why not Admonish with the general, but you want to tell me this, a fifth-rank official..." He came to the door of the big tent, opened it, pointed to the soldiers outside, and said, "Why don't you go out, general, and incite them to follow you again?" What about war?"

No one in the tent responded, those who took the lead and those who followed suit knew that the soldiers were tired of this place.It's urgent, if there is a mutiny, they and their family members are afraid that they will be imprisoned, and the gain will not be worth the loss.Between remaining loyal to Nan'an County King and keeping themselves, they collectively chose their own future.

The officers who had gradually surrounded the bearded man dispersed quietly again, saving their lives was the most important thing.They originally wanted to persuade the young special envoy to send a message to the king of Chu when the special envoy arrived. They could and were willing to fight again in order to wash away their past shame, and they could also find a way to fish out the king of Nan'an County.But, now it seems that it won't work.

"I understand," the bearded man changed his face, and the strong man broke his wrist and said like a hero, "I have no face, so let me die!" Jia Yan was really scared by him when he was about to wipe his neck with his sword. One jump, however, immediately calms down again.Because this person has been restrained.Jia Yan wanted to laugh a little, a battlefield warrior wanted to die but had to wait for others to rush up before wiping his neck...

In this way, he will definitely be deprived of the weapon, and this scene is really boring, Nan'an's confidant and favorite general, there are too many scenes.

A banquet was barely going to the end, and Jia Yan didn't make any further statements. It was wrong to say too much about the peace talks. It's better to wait until there is a decision and tell the group of people the result directly.It is useless to let them object, only to accept the reality, this is the best solution.Some issues are not suitable for everyone to express their opinions and be taken seriously. They just need to be obedient.

On the surface, the most important purpose of Jia Yan's coming here was to labor the army, but in fact, the fundamental purpose was to see with his own eyes the Xihai Yanzi camp and the feudal kingdom on the opposite side.It's best to talk to the king in person. Jia Yan sat in the tent, and he sealed the letter he had dictated and written by the king of Chu before, and was going to be sent to the vassal state.

"Report to Jia Canjun, the Fan Kingdom has sent a letter!" It was Tan Zhengqi who came in. He had been around Jia Yan's tent for the past few days, and happened to meet the messenger who came from the Chinese army's tent.The messenger was ordered to invite Jia Yan to the tent of the Chinese army, and the king of the vassal state sent someone to deliver a letter, inviting the palace representing the king of Chu to join the army and go to the vassal state for a talk.

Situ Hao looked at Jia Yan: "Are you going to agree to joining the army?"

"...General, please be sure to detain the county king and his favorite generals in the camp these few days," Jia Yan put away the letter and said earnestly, "Although the soldiers don't want to fight, they still have to fight." Be on guard against someone secretly coaxing soldiers, especially making a fuss about the peace talks." No matter how frustrated you were before, if you do it properly, you can still arouse the willingness of soldiers to fight to the death, and you must be on guard against this.

Situ Hao thought for a while: "Well, after the welcome banquet, I detained those who made trouble that day and those who stood by him in the camp of the Chinese army. I have already sent another person to their territory, so it doesn't matter. As for the king of the county, he has always been quite safe, hehe, his tent is just behind the big tent, and he usually avoids there when he has something to do. But, you plan to go to the feudal kingdom?"

"Ah, yes." Jia Yan said with a smile: "Since the king's words are so sincere, how can I refuse, besides, this is not our wish."

It takes two days to walk from Xihai Yanzi Daying to the capital of the feudal kingdom, the distance is not far, but the accompanying personnel need to spend a lot of thought.There must be people from the imperial court and the king of Chu, as well as people in the camp who understand the actual situation of the vassal state and the war, as well as effective guards.Because there are also extreme hawks in the vassal state, who want to completely shake off Dawu and invade the southeast directly.

This group of people wished that the special envoy would die in the vassal state, so that the two sides would have enough reasons to turn their faces, and the envoy would be killed—there would be no room for peace talks between the two countries.Great Wu will definitely send troops. From past experience, it will also lose troops and lose generals. Fan countries only need to stretch the front line and form an elephant army, and they can abandon the title of fan country!

At that time, if you want to have a resounding country name, all the hawks and militants not only do not think that the arrival of the special envoy is a bad thing, but are looking forward to it... And the king also mentioned in his personal letter: I am afraid that someone wants to assassinate the special envoy, please Be careful.

"Even if you risk your life, why don't you join the army?" Situ Hao finally asked.

Jia Yan replied firmly: "Of course!"

General Situ personally chose a thousand-man guard for him, and made an agreement with the feudal state to enter the territory of the feudal state, 500 people were stationed at the border, 500 people were stationed on the outskirts of the capital of the feudal state, and the remaining 500 people entered the city with Jia Canjun. The uncouth terms, the king agreed to.

"Your subordinate wants to join the army and make contributions!" Tan Zhengqi clasped his fists and said, "Master Special Envoy, please give this general a chance!"

Jia Yan looked him up and down: "After the peace talks, the troops will be withdrawn, and it will be conspicuous to move from Ping Anzhou at that time. Tan Zhengqi, you can go with me, but don't forget, you haven't said anything about it yet." Let’s talk.” Tan Zhengqi gritted his teeth, and in the end he still didn’t speak, just bowed deeply.

Because this time the King of Chu was ill first, Jia Yan was too busy to touch the ground, and later he had to work on behalf of the King of Chu, and now he was preparing for the vassal state. Except for writing a letter to Daiyu at the beginning, they did not communicate frequently.Jia Yan suddenly thought, if the peace talks don't go well this time, he will die in the feudal kingdom...won't it be that he doesn't even have a last word!

With a whoosh of his feet, Jia Yan raised his feet from the water. While wiping his feet, Jia Yan urged Changsheng: "Quick! Go get a pen and paper, I want to write something."

If my beloved wife sees the letter, I am ordered by my general to go to the feudal kingdom to negotiate. In the event of any accident, my last words are as follows.Jia Yan wrote thousands of words eloquently, including his son's education, future, future, and the life of his father-in-law and mother-in-law in their later years. Please don't leave Beijing.The family is sparsely populated, so it is better to stay in Beijing than to return to Gusu.

In the end, Jia Yan wrote that the most worried person is his beloved wife... Jia Boheng wrote that he felt that he really couldn't die. He couldn't bear to part with such a good wife and such a good family.He'll come back safe and sound anyway.This will is just a plan for the worst, not afraid of [-], just in case.After finishing writing, Ming Deli's servant immediately sent the letter together with the letter sent to the King of Chu. There were also two letters from him to Xu Zhi and Shi Guangzhu, and asked them to help if there was any accident. Forward this letter to his family.

On the appointed day, Jia Yan led more than 1000 people across the West Sea and entered the feudal kingdom.After walking for two days, we arrived at the outskirts of the feudal kingdom. When we were in the posthouse outside the city at night, Han Changsheng helped Jia Yan change his clothes while saying, "Master, their place is too small, it feels like a fart. The kung fu has come."

Jia Yan glared at him: "Now you are in other people's places, be careful what you say." Han Changsheng smiled and pursed his lips and stopped talking, but after a while he couldn't help but said: "Master, we will go back now, A Yuan and Da The girl is getting married soon, too."

Well, Jia Yan replied in a nasal voice. At first, the eldest girl was unwilling, but later A Yuan felt that she was the one who didn't deserve it. Now it's finally settled.He soaked his feet, and squinted at Han Changsheng with one eye: "You and Xueyan are also married, and only your sister is left. When I go back this time, it should be settled."

Han Changsheng smiled. It was all thanks to the uncle that his sister was able to order it to a young shopkeeper in a shop in Jinling, who was also an expert in business.Since his father died three years ago, life at home has become better and better. Even his mother Han Fengshi has become younger, and now she is still leading servants in the south to guard the tomb of the old lady.

The two talked about family affairs one after another, and on the eve of meeting the king, such a conversation seemed to dispel the exhaustion along the way and the upcoming tension.Listening to Changsheng's chanting, Jia Yan's thoughts drifted back to the capital, wondering what happened to the family?The daughter-in-law teaches the eldest son to read, but it's okay.

After washing the wind and dust and going to bed, Jia Yan dreamed of the courtyard and family members in his sleep. His parents, wife and children were all there, and then he began to sweat. Why did they look so cool, but he looked like an ant in a hot pot?

Someone was shaking him: Master, wake up!on fire!

The author has something to say:

Jia Boheng: I probably have five elements that offend fire, which is in opposition to fire.
