Bai Yujing

Chapter 41

=====================

After the army marched for a month, Hou Jiang already understood what kind of virtue these recruits were, and he also knew that there would be such a battle with Xia Ying.

The land in the Northern Zhou Dynasty was dangerous, and there were too many places suitable for setting up ambush, which is why he chose to separate the marching route of the food and the army, and every time he walked to the water's edge in front of the forest, he would let the soldiers soak their clothes to prevent Xia Ying from attacking.

He raised his long knife and looked at the bright eyes of the man in front of him. Years of fighting had left traces of wind and frost on General Hou's brows, but it also made him cautious.

—For example, he would never underestimate the young junior in front of him.

The recruits were led by three generals and headed northward in three routes. Xia Ying chose his route to set up an ambush. He felt unfortunate but lucky.

"The Major General's name is like thunder." He met Xia Ying's gaze, and there was no fear in his eyes. "I had a battle with my father in the early years, and the general has no dogs. I have long wanted to see the major general's literary and military strategies. "He pointed at Xia Ying with the tip of his knife, "Today is the time for you and me to compete."

"General Hou spent half his life as a soldier, and Xia Ying admires it so much." Xia Ying raised his spear and pointed it at Hou Jiang. "It is Ying's honor to have the opportunity to compete with the senior general." The whip, the crisp sound broke through the air, and the red fox roared and neighed, and came straight to Houjiang.

The Northern Zhou iron cavalry behind him also followed his spear/spear command, and rushed into the battlefield with the vanguard ahead.

Hou Jiang looked around at the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty who were outflanking him, and said loudly: "All the soldiers obey the order, I will hold Xia Ying back, and the rest will follow the commander to break out of the encirclement and try to reduce casualties!"

At the moment when Xia Ying charged, he saw with his own eyes a vanguard named Yingshun running away from the enemy and the battlefield, but went in the opposite direction. The long knife was also approaching, Xia Ying just roared bitterly, instead of chasing it, she turned her gaze and met Hou Jiang's long knife.

The moment soldiers meet, gold and stone collide, and the moment they pass each other, a huge thrust hits Hou Jiang. Hou Jiang doesn't take the road to escape, but turns around to meet Xia Ying again. Countless Nanchen soldiers cross him to break through, as well as his subordinates Anxiously persuaded: "General, you go first!"

Hou Jiang just shook his head, "Those who disobey the military order will be beheaded!" After saying that, he met Xia Ying's spear/spear again, with a rare bright light in his eyes.

"He who takes the lead is the benevolent." Xia Ying chuckled and said, "Forget it, General Hou is so righteous, the heads of your weak people in the Southern Chen Dynasty will be handed over to Tiejia of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and today I will only take the head of General Hou! "

After finishing speaking, his eyebrows frowned, and the red fox under his crotch neighed. He turned his spear and went straight for Hou Jiang's vital point.Hou Jiang lay on his back on the horse's back to avoid his blow, and swung his knife to go up. At the same time, he swung his whip and hit the red fox.

Being hit by the pain, the red fox suddenly moved forward. Due to the inertia of the war horse, Xia Ying was forced to turn her back, revealing her flaws.

However, the loss of vision did not affect his judgment on weapons at all. The long knife behind him was getting closer and closer. Xia Ying jumped up lightly and spun in the air in an instant. Hou Jiang's direction.

Hou Jiang looked at him in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe that someone could sit on a horse and walk forward. His red-tasseled spear didn't show any sign of weakness, and when he picked it up, he blocked the force of the long knife.

The red fox finally stopped. Xia Ying raised her eyebrows and glanced at Hou Jiang. She supported the horse's back with one hand, changed her figure, held the rein again, and faced the horse's head. Unexpectedly, he did not turn around with the horse, but beat the horse Go forward and continue to stay away from the direction of Hou Jiang.

Hou Jiang subconsciously chased after him, but unexpectedly, when he was getting close to Xia Ying, a long/spear suddenly stabbed Xia Ying backwards from the side of his waist. The force was so precise and stable that Hou Jiang had no time to rein in the reins , He was picked off the horse by a strong force.

Xia Ying just turned the horse's head and looked down at him condescendingly. His sword eyebrows were shining brightly, and the fiery red color was reflected in his pupils. His youthful vigor was like a scorching midsummer.

Hou Jiang was lying on the ground, a spear was inserted into his heart, and blood was flowing. He raised his hand and said in a trembling voice, "Back...back to the carbine!"

As the words fell, his hands seemed to be unable to support anymore, and he fell to the ground slumped, leaving only a pair of eyes that refused to close, filled with endless regret.

Xia Ying drew out his spear, and said to the deputy general who came up: "He is a brave and loyal man." A look of respect flashed in his eyes, "Don't wait too long."

The lieutenant bowed his head and said, "Yes."

Xia Ying nodded slightly, and chased after the army on horseback. Corpses were strewn across the field, most of them were Nanchen soldiers. The army said: "Don't chase after poor bandits, call for gold and withdraw troops!"

The sound waves spread layer by layer to the front, and the forward pursuers all reined in, no matter how war-loving their eyes were, they still stopped chasing.

The look in Xia Ying's eyes was complicated and gloomy. After a long time, he seemed to have finally pulled himself out of those emotions. He patted the red fox lightly, and smiled with joy and encouragement in a very low voice, "Red fox, We won again."

However, this time, the red fox didn't move again. Xia Ying looked down at the red fox in surprise. Generals and horses always have some unique and subtle tacit understanding. He got off the horse almost immediately, trying to check the red fox. Case.

After he got off the horse, the red fox seemed to have exhausted its last strength, and after a stern roar, it fell to the ground.

"Red Fox—"

Under the shock, Xia Ying's roar resounded through the sky. He looked at the fallen red fox in disbelief, and put his palm on its neck, "There is still help!"

Feeling the pulse, he shouted loudly: "Come on," he shouted sharply: "Follow me and bring the red fox back to the camp!"

============

"Is this the major tent of the major general's barracks?" A young man in a purple and black gauze waving a folding fan asked the guards near the tent with a smile.

Even though he was the only one with no weapons and horses around him, the guard was still very alert and asked, "Why did you find the major general?"

It was Shi Tianqing who came, he curled up his bright red lips, and smiled brightly at the corners of his eyes, "I heard that the Major General has a favorite horse named Red Fox. I used to be a Taoist priest, and I figured out that I have a relationship with this horse at home, so I come here one sight."

"You came here for that horse too?" The guard was full of suspicion: "Since the red fox was injured, two nobles have come here one after another, both wanting to see the major general's BMW."

"Injured?" Shi Tianqing was a little surprised, hearing that two people had already come, he said again: "So they have already arrived, may I ask, little general, where are those two now?"

"Could it be that your step is also Lang Zhong's friend?"

"Lang Zhong?"

"A few months ago, the red fox suddenly fainted. For some reason, a famous man in black came here and claimed to be able to cure the red fox. The young master of the fox is the doctor's friend."

"Your Langzhong, but your name is Changsheng?" Guessing that according to Changsheng's personality, most of them can't change their names, as expected, the little soldier nodded and said: "Exactly, since that's the case, I'll go and invite Langzhong to come first, please wait here."

The little soldier had gone for a while, and the three who were eating and drinking at the same table not long ago were reunited in the world.

Chang Sheng was the first to say hello, "You've come." Lin Yan glanced at Shi Tianqing, and asked with a smile, "Why did you come so late? Why, could it be that you came by boat?"

"I was afraid that Ah Yan would see me angry, so I specially waited for your anger to subside before coming back."

Lin Yan glanced at him when he heard this, Shi Tianqing just looked at him with a smile, without any sign of guilt.

The three of them went back to Changsheng's tent and sat down, Shi Tianqing watched the excitement and asked earnestly, "Didn't you come to see Su Yuan? Why did you become a doctor for someone?"

Chang Sheng took a sip of his tea and began to pour bitter water, "You don't know, this Xia Ying is really not a thing!"

As soon as the words fell, the curtain was lifted, "Who said I'm not a thing?" The young major general's armor was reflected in Xia Ri, which was exceptionally clear.

Lin Yan and Shi Tianqing pointed at Chang Sheng at the same time, and the latter swallowed silently under Xia Ying's smiling gaze.

Xia Ying was not angry, she just looked away, looked at Shi Tianqing, and asked Chang Sheng, "Is this also your friend?"

"Yes……"

"You have so many friends," Xia Ying sighed with a smile, and slightly raised her hand to exchange a salute with Shi Tianqing, "I'm Xia Ying."

"Shi Tianqing."

Xia Ying nodded, then said to him: "I need to go to military training in the afternoon, so please forgive me for not being able to entertain you with Chang Sheng, if you need anything, just ask Chang Sheng, the military camp is bitterly cold, if there is something missing, you have to feel wronged gone."

After saying that, he opened the curtain again and was about to leave, but before he left, his movements suddenly stopped, he looked up at Chang Sheng and said, "I'm leaving."

"Oh……"

After getting Changsheng's response, Xia Ying smiled and put down the curtain to block the too glaring sunlight outside the tent.

Lin Yan looked at Chang Sheng, his eyes became a little subtle.

"Ahem," Chang Sheng cleared his throat and sat down again. This time he was much more cautious, and repeated in a low voice: "Xia Ying is really not a thing."

"All ears?"

"When I came here, the red fox almost died. General Nan Chenhou's unique skill - the five-poison whip, this poison is unstoppable by anyone in the world," Changsheng said, "I have no choice but to eat it The elixir, this will save my life."

"The red fox can be reincarnated after death," Shi Tianqing interjected, "If you don't save it, maybe it will be a human in the next life."

"Of course I have selfish intentions, but I don't want Lord Su to suffer and his soul to be covered with haze," Changsheng shook his head and said, "Whether it's a human or a ghost, flowers, insects, fish, cattle, sheep, or livestock, I will definitely let Master Su survive in peace." Every life."

"After the red fox was cured, I proposed to take it away." Changsheng's eyes were full of distress, "A sword has no eyes on the battlefield. I don't want my husband to suffer such pain again, but Xia Ying——"

Changsheng seemed to be choked with anger, and continued after choking for a while: "Xia Ying said that I can cure poisons that ordinary people cannot. Bogey, I have broken the taboo, how can I continue over and over again?"

"You have spells, if you want to take away the red fox easily, why should you be restrained by a mortal?" Shi Tianqing asked.

Lin Yan's eyes wandered between Chang Sheng and Shi Tianqing, and he said, "Of course it's because Chang Sheng has a good relationship with this major general."

Changsheng sighed, "He did treat me sincerely, even when he heard that I came for the red fox, he promised me to take away his beloved horse that had been with him for more than ten years. In the past few months, I have slept with him many times , or to discuss military affairs, or to talk casually, I can also see that General Xia is indeed an incomparable talent."

"The most rare thing is that General Xia highly appreciates Mr. Su's political opinions, and he is not someone who pretends to be proficient after learning superficiality, but a person who can really connect with Mr. Su. No wonder the red fox that Mr. Su turned into in this life is willing to do it for him. He was born and died."

"Although I'm not good at healing, I'm also from the Xiumu family. I'm quite accomplished in detoxifying poisons. Nan Chen turned his back on what he said, broke the covenant and went north. This is the end of his inhumanity. leave."

"Nan Chen has the confidence to do so today, and Master Su contributed to it, and Nan Chen is Master Su's homeland. Why do you protect the north and attack the south?" Lin Yan asked curiously.

Chang Sheng shook his head, "Do you know how Master Su died?" He stared at the corner of the table as if in a daze, and said coldly:

"The reform touched the interests of the family. The late emperor passed away suddenly after he succeeded. The new emperor poisoned Su Yuan to appease the anger of the public within a few months of his enthronement, but he pushed forward his reform." Changsheng sneered, "Crossing the river and tearing down the bridge, Killing donkeys, so despicable and indifferent, my hatred for Southern Chen is far greater than that of Northern Zhou."

After Lin Yan heard this, he couldn't help feeling a little bit sad, but he heard Shi Tianqing say: "'When the cunning rabbit dies, the good dog prospers; the tall birds die, and the good bow hides.' This is the case for mortals." He looked at Lin Yan, "Isn't it the same for Tiangong. "

The General God of War who calmed the Netherworld in the past had his memory erased, sealed for thousands of years, and splashed with sewage.

It's already a way to get tired of playing.

Lin Yanji looked into his eyes seriously, "If you haven't betrayed me, I will clear your name."

Shi Tianqing just smiled, and coaxed casually without paying attention at all: "Okay, I'll wait for Ah Yan."
