Luoshui Dongliu

It was night, and the lamps in the tent had been extinguished, but Pei Yu did not sleep.During the day, Zhao Shen promised him about the cavalry, so some arrangements had to be made.At this time, he thought about Zhao Shen's behavior for a while, it seemed that there was no flaw, but for some reason, he still couldn't feel at ease in his heart.

Pei Yu put on his outer robe, stood up and walked slowly in the tent.In the darkness, only the slight sound of footsteps on the ground can be heard.Outside the tent, the night was dark and the drizzle was falling. He seemed to be thinking or lost in thought, or he was just waiting.

When the sky was slightly brighter, Li Ji was already waiting outside the tent.When Pei Yu called him in, he saw that he had blue shadows under his eyes, so he asked, "Why don't you sleep well?"

Li Ji smiled and said, "I think I'm going home eventually, but I can't hold back when I'm overjoyed."

Pei Yu didn't investigate whether it was true or not, but only asked, "What happened to Zhao Shen's guards?"

Li Ji said: "It's already at the gate of the camp. The heavy armored cavalry in the army also followed my master's instructions and left for a while. Before the opening of the city of Luocheng, it happened to be at the bottom of the city."

Pei Yu said, "Where are the infantry?"

This is to say that they will be arranged in the northeast direction of the camp gate. Li Ji hesitated slightly, and said: "It is also arranged. It's just that the number of people has been cut in half."

Pei Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Why?"

Li Ji said: "General Yuchi said that the envoy from Xijing arrived today, and he led people to greet him. He said that the guard of honor was insufficient, so he called this group away."

Pei Yu couldn't help raising his voice, "Why don't you report me?"

Li Ji said: "It happened just earlier in the morning." Then he said, "I heard that the emissary team was blocked in the west a few days ago, and they set off again because the water gradually receded. They are arriving today."

Pei Yu was not hesitant, or in Yu Chiyuan's eyes the great achievement had already been accomplished, and welcoming the envoys from Beijing was more important than recruiting the Luocheng cavalry.Suddenly recalled a few months ago, Yuchizhong was still there, didn't the two of his brothers also abandon the camp, and even let Zhao Shen go out of the city to move a rescuer, but at that time it was himself to meet him.Thinking of this at this moment, I feel very ironic.

Li Ji persuaded: "Actually, there are heavily armored cavalry watching, and the infantry will not be needed at all. This is the case..."

Pei Yu stopped him and said, "That's all."

Li Ji then turned around and asked, "The envoy, sir, do you need to see him too?"

Pei Yu said: "It's still a matter of seeing, we just need to wait for the matter to be settled." He also said, "If it's too late, we can only ask for forgiveness later."

Li Ji said with a smile: "They have to leave this room before they arrive. In fact, it doesn't matter if you come or not. You shouldn't mind when you see him."

Pei Yu said: "Whether he minds or not, this is an order from the grand master, so it doesn't matter."

Hearing the sound, Li Ji felt that he had lost his words, and hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Yes."

The rain showed no sign of letting up as the sky brightened.When Pei Yu arrived at the gate of the camp, he saw that Zhao Shen had straddled his horse and stood in the rain, so he said, "It's early, General."

Zhao Shendao: "I'm here to watch the iron cavalry of your army go to the city, it's eye-opening."

Pei Yu laughed and said, "General, this is a mockery. The cavalry in our army suffered losses at the hands of the general, so what did the general say to open his eyes?"

Zhao Shen smiled casually, and calmly accepted the praise.Pei Yu stared at him for a moment, and when he saw the horse's footsteps moving, there was also a subtle movement of frowning and pursing his lips.Smiling in his heart, he didn't know why this young man was so sorry for himself, he said: "It's still early, and there is nothing wrong here, it doesn't matter if the general gets off his horse and waits."

Zhao Shen raised his hand and tightened the reins, then looked at the guard behind Pei Yu leading the horse, and said, "Why don't you get on the horse too, sir, we can wait together."

Seeing that he was so persistent, Pei Yu said, "That's fine." After saying that, he raised his hand to shield the guard with the umbrella behind him from getting on his horse, and the drizzle blew on his face, making it cool for a while.

The two horses were tied together, and everyone waited silently. Pei and Zhao talked to each other occasionally.Zhao Shen's Qing chase seemed to be bored, he couldn't stop moving forward, and Pei Yu's horse couldn't help but follow along.

It was the dull time, and suddenly a guard said from behind: "Here we come."

I saw a stream of water vapor rising from the ground in the distance.When you get closer, you can see clearly that Luocheng Qingqi is in the center, surrounded by Xiyan's heavy armored cavalry.This team is approaching from far away, and it will be there in just a moment.

Pei Yu tightened the reins, but Zhao Shen suddenly said, "How long has it been since you became an official, sir?"

When he asked about this, Pei Yu felt a little surprised, loosened his hand, and said, "It's been more than twenty years." Then he said, "Why do you ask this?"

Zhao Shendao: "I recall hearing people say that the wish of Master in his life is to see the lord rule the Central Plains. In the past 20 years, Master came here from Guanlong. I don't know if the wish will be fulfilled in another 20 years?"

The voice was not salty, but Pei Yu couldn't help but move his wrist when he heard that the horse was reining in, and the horse kicked a few more steps.Just when he was distracted for a moment, Zhao Shen seemed to have inadvertently bumped his horse's rib with his knee, and Qing Zhui took another step forward.

This step was so big that Pei Yu suddenly became alert and reined in the horse's head.Only then did he realize that since he got on the horse, his horse had been led inch by inch by Qing Zhui, and at this time he left the gate of the camp behind him to the northeast by about ten feet.He couldn't help saying: "Where is General Zhao going? Don't move forward."

As soon as the words fell, the horse team had arrived.Xiyan's cavalry should have continued to surround the Luocheng cavalry, but something unexpected happened.How did they know that the soil here is fine and soft, and every time it is soaked by rain, Yuan Gui is still sucked into the thin mud.Luocheng's cavalry is not very good yet, Xiyan's cavalry armor has been sunk in the mud.The horse was busy pulling its feet, Yuan Gui and his party had already tightened their formation and faintly escaped from the encirclement.

Zhao Shenju saw it in his eyes, his chest was heaving at this time, and his fingers couldn't help shaking slightly because of being too excited.His eyes met Yuan Gui's instantly, and in just one glance, everything that should be said has been said.Yuan Gui suddenly raised his horse and jumped in front of him, and shouted loudly: "You have no integrity, the general, you just want to trade your brothers for your future, I don't want to be with you, let's go!" It seemed to be stabbing towards Zhao Shen, but the lance tilted its head and only passed by Qingzui's hind legs.

Zhao Shen was clear in his heart, it was Yuan Gui who shirked for him in front of the enemy before he left.For a while, I only heard a whistle from the cavalry, which was the signal.Zhao Shen said to himself: "I hope the trip goes smoothly!" Just as Cai Yuangui pretended to stab him just now, he suddenly exerted force on one leg.At this time, Qing Zhui, who has been familiar with driving Qing Zhui for many years, jumped to the side, as if startled by the stab just now, but rushed straight towards Pei Yu.They were already far away from the gate of the camp, the guards were standing under their horses just now, how could they get back on their horses in time.In the blink of an eye, several heavy armored cavalry were approaching, all charging forward to protect the overseer.But as soon as they moved, the formation on the west side was in disarray, and the formation on the east side was still stuck in the mud.At that moment, everyone in Los Angeles, headed by Yuan Gui, saw the path and galloped straight to the east.As for the infantry previously arranged on the periphery, they were suddenly unprepared for an incident, their numbers were reduced and their defense line was weak. The most important thing was the momentum of the nearly [-] cavalry, which suddenly rose up on the ground like a whirlwind, like sweeping leaves, In a blink of an eye, he whizzed away.

At this time, Qing Chasing Horseshoe was in a hurry, but he was already stopped by two or three Xiyan cavalry.Seeing that he was about to collide with the iron tool, Zhao Shen instinctively grabbed the rein and protected the horse's head, but the horse's body had already hit the opponent's horse.The force of this collision was heavy, Zhao Shen suddenly felt all the wounds open, and the shock and pain made his eyes go black.At this time, Qing Zhui was blocked by Sheng Sheng, and couldn't help jumping up, Zhao Shen couldn't hold his hands steady for a moment, and he got off the horse's rein, and was thrown off the horse in a jolt.

When he fell from the horse, Qing Zhui was jumping into the air with frightened front hooves, and the people around him cried out in surprise.The war horse was still in shock, when the horse's hoof landed hastily, it was stepping on his leg.

Zhao Shen only felt pain in his knees, as if his legs were severed.Compared with the wounds and wounds that had just been torn apart, there was no pain at all.In a trance, he saw Yuan Gui leading a group of people galloping away, only the distant back was left, but his heart was relieved.In a trance again, Qing Zhui's front hooves knelt down in front of him.The horse touched his cheek with its snout, and the warm breath sprinkled on his face, Zhao Shen seemed to see tears welling up in Qing Zhui's dark eyes, until the water dripped down his cheeks, he knew it was not a hallucination.He already felt relaxed in his heart, so he couldn't help smiling and muttering: "Qing Zhui, don't cry, you are the one who will fulfill me..." After saying this, he fainted with a black pain in front of his eyes.

Yu Chiyuan went west to meet him, and when the envoy arrived around noon, he deliberately asked, "Where is the envoy?"

The messenger said with a smile: "The general doesn't know? But I have heard the good news from the general here."

Yu Chiyuan clapped his palms and said with a smile: "It's been hard work for the envoy. It's a real honor for the army to have the envoy inspect this time."

After these compliments, all the people got on their horses and set off, the half-mile road was lined with soldiers, the envoy couldn't help but praised: "This is the appearance of a triumphant army."

Walking all the way, the messenger said: "I heard that Zhao Shen in Luo City finally surrendered?"

Yu Chiyuan smiled meaningfully, and said: "Your envoy is really well informed."

The emissary said: "Speaking of which, the order that the grand master is going to pass on this time is also for him. When I was blocked on the way, I really worried about making trouble, but now it seems unnecessary."

Yu Chiyuan deliberately asked: "What order?" After listening to the envoy's narration, he said, "It's strange, this order has already been passed on to the supervising army once."

He knew that the envoy had some old friendship with Pei Yu, and he was implicitly accusing Pei Yu of spying on his mind and arbitrarily making claims. The envoy glanced at him for a moment, but he didn't understand what he meant, and said with a smile: "Pei Yu has such a temperament, The general has a deep understanding of it this time." He said again, "Actually, the general doesn't need to mind too much, just wait for the return to court."

The meaning of the latter sentence was unspoken between the two of them.Changed the topic for a while, and headed all the way to the camp.

When they arrived at the gate of the camp, Yu Chiyuan was waiting to lead the way, when a guard stumbled over and bowed down in front of him and reported: "Today the cavalry from Luocheng went out of the city..."

Yu Chiyuan frowned and said, "I know now. Didn't the supervising army arrange it?"

The guard continued: "Run, run..."

When Yu Chiyuan heard the words, he knew something serious happened, and said in surprise, "What?"

After hearing the guard's brief speech, the messenger couldn't help but change his tone and said: "The Grand Master wants these three hundred cavalry, now this..."

Yu Chiyuan was anxious and annoyed.He originally thought that Zhao Shen should be tortured physically and mentally, but when Pei Yu asked him to send troops a few days ago, he didn't think so, but now he heard the change, he became annoyed for a while and said: "The cavalry ran away, isn't Zhao Shen still here? He is like this, It’s because I didn’t kill him earlier!”

But the envoy calmed down early, and said: "Young general, don't be impatient. The incident happened suddenly, and it was still before the army was dispatched. You should quickly deal with the aftermath."

Yu Chiyuan said bitterly: "It is because I was annoyed before the departure. This is to hurt my morale in triumph."

The messenger was thinking about something else.In fact, the grand master's order is only considered serious now, but Pei Yu has passed it down to himself before; he can understand Pei Yu's intentions, but now that this happened, it is a bit embarrassing.

For a while, he slowly opened his mouth and said: "The general still needs to be patient, you can't kill him lightly." On the other hand, he said, "Since Luocheng has surrendered, today's matter is tantamount to rebellion. The general's saying that he wants to kill him is not an exaggeration. However, all the way out of Xijing, the grand master respected him for his loyalty to what he did and was willing to treat him with courtesy. If he was really killed, the people in the world would not care about the whole story. They would only say that the Xiyan army had backtracked. It is also the most taboo in wartime. Such a relationship cannot be taken care of by a general."

Yu Chiyuan snorted: "Let me think about it, if a person like him is accompanied in the army, who knows what troubles will happen along the way. I just think about it now, and I feel a headache."

The emissary thought about it and said: "Did he fall from the horse and was seriously injured? He won't be able to leave for a while, so he simply stays here to recuperate for a while, staggers the army to set off, and leaves later."

Yu Chiyuan said: "But who is looking at him? He dares to..."

Seeing that Xu Xu was about to complain again, the envoy hurriedly stopped talking and said, "Let me invite Pei Yu..." Seeing Yu Chiyuan's surprise, he laughed, "He did it himself, if anything happens, he must be called." Settle it down." Seeing that Yuchiyuan looked at him a little strangely, he smiled and said, "I'm not cheating him. On the contrary, he can return to Xijing a few days later, but it will be more stable." He said in a low voice, "He and Yuchi Hu's festival is not about personal grievances, but about the court's opinions. I don't know the details, and the general should not ask me. But the general must know, this is exactly what is not tolerated by others. When he returns to Xijing, Then when..."

I didn't say this again.Yu Chiyuan had a cold war for no reason, and said for a long time: "Thank you for your guidance."

In Pei Yu's tent, several medical officers gathered.Suddenly a medical officer came over and said to Pei Yu: "I didn't care about the supervising army in a panic, and the supervising army was also hit just now. I'll send someone to prepare some calming soup."

Pei Yu waved his hand and said, "No need." His expression was gloomy, and his complexion was actually pale.Just said, "How is he?"

The medical officer gasped for a while, and said: "The bruises all over the body are still trivial, the ribs on the upper ribs are broken in several places, and the side bones and auxiliary bones on one side are broken..." After a pause, Fang said. "If the bones are connected well, it's fine. It's just that his knees...are prone to future troubles after being injured here, and the horse's hoof is stepping on it..."

Pei Yu said, "How many percent can be cured?"

The medical officer looked at him, and said in a low voice for a while: "Supervisor, forgive me... this injury is quite serious, and we can only talk about it if we have our lives."

Pei Yu couldn't help but shudder when he heard the words, and the medical officer couldn't say anything more.At this time, a small medical officer came over and called: "Supervisor, sir, General Zhao is awake."

The medical official wanted to vent his anger, but Pei Yu had already stepped over.At this moment, he felt annoyed or angry, or felt regretful, he was meeting Zhao Shen and looking at him.Pei Yu stared at him, gritted his teeth and sneered, "I really don't understand why General Zhao is so cruel to himself."

Zhao Shen's eyes were still in a trance, he closed his eyes for a while, and said in a low voice, "I will do my duty."

A broken calf is not a big problem, the knee joint is indeed more troublesome, and... this was actually an accident
