I'm happy after being scumbag

Li Ruyi was startled, subconsciously called: "Your Majesty—"

Lu Mingyu: "Huh?"

Li Ruyi swallowed, but couldn't say anything.

He took care of the emperor when he was young.Year after year, Li Ruyi knew the emperor's temper best.

He doesn't listen to people.On the contrary, for "reasonable" words, Lu Mingyu would listen to them and seriously consider them. He even had the experience of modifying his thoughts many times due to the advice of his courtiers.However, Lu Mingyu will resolutely implement what he thinks is correct.

Li Ruyi didn't think he could tell the truth to persuade the emperor.If you think about it carefully, if the border is really settled down, it wouldn't be a bad thing for the emperor to go out for a walk.

So he pulled out a smiling face and said: "At that time, the servant may also see the scenery of Saibei."

The emperor listened, although he could tell that Li Ruyi's tone was different before and after, he didn't pursue it. Instead, he smiled again and said, "Exactly."

He also knows the severity.Before the war subsided, no third person heard this conversation.

Lu Mingyu sat firmly in Chang'an, receiving battle reports.

In the future, there will not be so much good news.

After losing the two cities again, that Wusu Khan seemed to explode with momentum.The remaining six cities were strictly blocked, and the Dazhou army organized several sieges, but all failed.

According to the estimates of Hou Jie and others, the spring plowing that should have been destroyed this year has long been destroyed in the war, and there is not much food left in the city. It should have been the time when the Khitan people could not persist.But they stayed on the city wall every day, and they still ate meat.

At first, Hou Jie and others thought that they probably transported a lot of cattle and sheep into the city earlier.Until one day, the Zhou army attacked the city again, and someone picked up a human bone.

Prior to this, the Great Zhou army had been fighting the Khitans here for a long time.It is not uncommon to find human bones.The problem is that there are several strands of cooked meat hanging on this human bone.

Thinking of the scene he saw before, Hou Jie's eyes darkened.Zhao Yue and others saw it and were equally furious.

In such a situation, "Yungui" is actually the calmer one.

Although he doesn't have the name of a general at the moment, he can already sit with other generals and discuss the next battle.

In a fit of anger, he said lightly: "It seems that there is indeed nothing to eat in the city."

After hearing this, Hou Jie, Zhao Yue and others glared at him immediately.

Only Wei Hai was in a complicated mood.

Facing the gazes of Hou, Zhao and others, "Yungui" said again: "They are at the end of their battles, and this is the opportunity of the Great Zhou—General Hou, General Zhao, now I don't know how many people are imprisoned in the city, and they are angry here. It is most useless, and they must be rescued as soon as possible.”

After hearing his words, although Hou Jie and the others still gritted their teeth, they understood what the young man meant.

right.Every moment they curse here, another Great Zhou citizen may die at the mouth of those beasts.

Thinking of this, no matter how much indignation there was, it was forcibly suppressed.

Several people began to discuss how to fight next.Many siege methods have been used, and the soldiers of Dazhou are also exhausted.This was supposed to be a protracted battle, but they knew that they didn't have much time.

In such a situation, "Yungui" has a new proposal.

The others listened, inexplicable at first.But after thinking about it carefully, I gradually felt that what the other party said was indeed reasonable.

Most importantly, they have long been helpless.Until now, dead horses are treated as live horse doctors.

After the meeting ended, Hou Jie, Zhao Yue and others went down to make arrangements.

Wei Hai's old injury has not healed. Although he participated in the meeting, he has no specific duties on him.Seeing the others leave at this moment, he slowly supported himself to stand up.Just as he was about to leave, he saw that there was still one person in the house, looking at the sand table.

It is "Yungui".

Looking at him, Wei Hai felt another "burst" in his heart.

The hesitation that had faded before surged up again.He was full of hesitation, thinking: If His Majesty knew that such a person was here, I'm afraid——

Just as he was thinking, "Yun Gui" suddenly opened his mouth and called, "General Wei?"

Wei Hai was shocked.

He took a closer look, only to realize that the other party was not looking at him.Still bowing his head, he carefully figured out the layout of the sand table.

"You don't have to worry," the young man said, "When Wusu Khan is eliminated, 'Yungui' will die in battle."

Wei Hai was taken aback, his pupils shrank slightly.

At this time, the young man finally raised his head.

He looked at Wei Hai and showed a conciliatory smile, saying: "General Zhao has never seen 'Yan Yunge', so he doesn't know what I look like. I am not familiar with it. Now that I change my face, he will not recognize me. As for the other guards in the border town, although they know the appearance of 'Yan Yunge', they will not face 'Yun Gui' head-on."

When he said this, Wei Hai didn't know what he meant.

He took a breath, but still couldn't help saying: "You are too bold!"

"Yungui", or Yan Yunge, didn't care about Wei Hai's comments.

His tone was still light, and he said: "Only you, General Wei, are familiar with 'Yan Yunge' and know what 'Yun Gui' looks like. But it doesn't matter, after all, General Wei has hidden more things from His Majesty than that." One."

threaten.Wei Hai realized it immediately.

But he had to admit that what the other party said was not wrong.

In the first year of Jianwen, he led the army to Chang'an.No matter how many deceptions of the Yan family were involved, he did it himself.Although everything was concealed smoothly later, to this day, Wei Hai still broke out in a cold sweat when he dreamed back at midnight.

But now, he could indeed say that Yan Yunge was so bold that he came to the northern border by gaining an identity from Zhao Yue's side as an exiled criminal.But if there is no opponent, what the war will look like is not known.

Thinking about this, Wei Hai said dryly, "What are you talking about? I can't understand."

Yan Yunge smiled slightly and said, "It's good if you don't understand. If you are confused, you can live longer."

After saying this, he bowed his head again, ignoring Wei Hai again.

Wei Hai let out a breath slowly, and finally left.

After that day, the Zhou army attacked the city again.

Hearing the news, Wusu Khan didn't pay attention at first.

In the past, in order to defend against foreigners, the generals and soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, together with the people in the city, built the cities as solid as gold.Up to now, such a city wall just keeps the Dazhou people out.

Wusu Khan slept extremely peacefully.Until midnight, he faintly heard a strange sound.

He woke up vaguely, and after a long time, he suddenly realized: the sound he heard before was not because he was in a trance in a dream, but something real!

He hurriedly summoned someone to ask what was going on.The visitor listened with a hint of hesitation on his face.

Wusu Khan saw something, and his complexion suddenly sank.

That night, he went up the city wall himself.

Standing on the city wall, it is better to hear what happened.

It was the Zhou soldiers outside who were singing.

This is commonplace.During the battle, war songs were originally needed to boost morale.

But at this moment, what those Dazhou people were talking about turned out to be Khitan dialect!What they sang was actually a Khitan ballad!

It describes how lush the aquatic plants are on the grassland, and how strong the cattle and sheep are.The sky is high and the sea is wide, and the eagle soars!

The singing was like a wave, pressing heavily towards the city wall under the night.

Although it was still some time before autumn, Wusu Khan could not stop trembling when he heard it.

Especially when he realized that, unconsciously, there were Khitan people beside and behind him humming that ballad.

He turned around abruptly, and slapped the humming man's face with his palm.

With a "pop", everyone was dumbfounded.

The city wall was silent, only the singing outside was still echoing.

Wusu Khan looked cold, and said: "Pass down the order. Anyone who sings with those Dazhou people will be thrown into the 'sheepfold'!"

Hearing what he said, the people next to him looked serious and dared not speak again.

You know, as early as half a decade ago, there were no more cattle and sheep in the city.

The "sheepfold" that Khan is talking about at this moment, the prisoners inside are different things.Two legs, two arms, walking straight, commonly known as "two-legged sheep".

……

……

Wusu Khan made the people around him settle down by force.No matter whether he is homesick following the outside movement or not, at least he will never show it on his face.

But outside of Zhecheng, the other cities are not so secure.

Indeed, the Khitan people would also feel comfortable in the cities of Dazhou.Especially in winter, how warm it is on the kang.

But it's not the coldest time yet, they don't need to stay on the kang all day long.As a result, various "disadvantages" in the city were highlighted.

No matter how wide the street is, it looks narrow compared to the grassland.

No matter how full the "two-legged sheep" are, they are not enough compared to real cattle and sheep.

Besides, a large group of people gathered in the city and did not open the city gate for a long time.Day by day, the city inevitably gathers filth.

The Han people always sang Khitan ballads.The appearance of the grassland appeared in the dreams of the Khitan soldiers again and again, and finally one day, someone couldn't bear it and wanted to leave the city quietly.

Then, he bumped into the Da Zhou army who had been waiting for a long time.

Before the arrival of winter, Dazhou broke through five cities again.

As a result, only one ocher city has not been recovered.

Zheng Yi, as "Usu Khan", was somewhat majestic among the Khitans.

Because of his order, the defense in Zhecheng has never been relaxed.Someone wanted to sneak out, but Zheng Yi kept his word, and turned around and threw him into the "sheepfold".

In Zheng Yi's view, this is a necessary means to maintain order in Zhecheng.

He patrols every day and is very busy.

During the period, I also quarreled with Guo Xin several times, and was questioned several times by Guo Xin, "Those are all people who have lived in Zhecheng for decades, including the owner of the restaurant you and I have been to before, and the doctor who paid nothing for the soldiers' medical treatment. Now how has it become a 'two-legged sheep'".

Zheng Yi was upset.He naturally knew what Guo Xin said, so those people did not die for a while.The first batch of "sheep" to be eaten were all captives, as well as beggars and refugees.

Slowly, Guo Xin did not come to him for a long time.

Zheng Yi was seen by others, knowing that Guo Xin stayed alone in the house and got drunk every day, so he didn't care about him.
