Chapter 136 Plan ahead
Chapter 136: Preparing for the future
The war in Longxi has been fully launched.
However, due to the recapture of the county town and the safety of Lintao, nearly 100,000 Qiang cavalry were suppressed to the west of Taoshui.
The war was very fierce, and the Qiang people knew very well that if they could not break through the Longxi County City, when heavy snow came, more than 100,000 Qiang cavalry would face severe famine. At that time, not only horses would not be eaten, but even people would have to endure hunger and cold.
Here, I have to talk about Niu Fu.
Dong Qi always felt that Niu Fu's ability was average. But at the beginning of the battle, he discovered Niu Fu's extraordinaryness.
This is a very cautious person!
It is better to disappear by missing a fighter than take any risk.
He was guarded by the city, and no matter how the Qiang cavalry cursed Niu Fu's ancestors, he was still calm. Anyway, if you want to fight, I will defend you. You retreat and you can do whatever you want to go out of the city to fight, that's not to imagine. Longxi County City was built during the reign of Emperor Guangwu. At that time, General Fubo Ma Yuan personally supervised the construction to defend the Qiang people from crossing Longxi.
Since then, Huangfu Gui and Zhang Huan have been here for many years, and the Longxi County City has been built extremely solidly.
The city is equipped with sufficient food and defensive weapons. As long as the command is properly, the 100,000 troops may not be able to break the city if they fight all.
To be honest, Dong Qi was lucky to be able to break through Longxi.
If Pang De had not made a sudden turn against him, more than a thousand people would have thought of breaking Longxi, which would have been a delusion.
Although Niu Fu is not talented, he is not a useless person. No matter how hard the Qiang cavalry attacked, the Longxi County City was as stable as Mount Tai.
Neither Han Sui nor Beigong Boyu appeared under the county city.
Beigong Boyu did not participate in the war because he wanted to mobilize various Qiang people. However, Beigong Boyu did not believe him, but just stared at him and prevented him from going to the front line. Even Han Sui, the main troops of Jincheng Han Sui were disbanded. Apart from Yan Xing and the four commanders, Han Sui had no soldiers around him. Even if he had great skills, he had nowhere to display them.
No wonder, after all, this guy was forced to join the war.
Beigong Boyu didn't believe him and took Han Sui with him, on the one hand, to use his fame, and on the other hand, to take revenge.
But Han Sui was very calm.
If you don’t let me go up, I will stay in Huangzhong.
Take your family on horseback or sit in a tent to read.
But even so, Beigong Boyu's supervision of Han Sui was still very strict.
Fortunately, these two people didn't go, otherwise Dong Qi would rush to the battlefield regardless of everything. Even the old lady said privately: "This Han Wen's appointment with Beigong Boyu is a wise person. He knows that my A Chou is going to get married, so he cooperates like this."
Of course, this is a joke.
However, as good days approached, the people in the ranch became more and more excited, waiting for the arrival of November 2nd.
In his spare time, Dong Lu will guide Ren Hongchang with Teng Lier to lead the Tiger Girl Camp.
Teng Li'er is good at horse warfare, while Dong Lu is familiar with military affairs because she has been listening to Dong Qi for many years.
And since Dong Yuan talked to Dong Chi, she seems to have become a different person.
Either stayed in the room to read books or ran to chat with Wang Ji. He listened to Wang Ji playing the piano and talking with the old lady, looking like a good girl. Of course, this sudden change really scared the old lady and Mrs. Dong.
It was not until they confirmed that Dong Yuan had nothing wrong with her that these two people had let go of their worries.
No wonder, after experiencing the huge stimulation of flesh and blood flying in the battle formation, some changes will inevitably occur.
As for Ren Hongchang...
Dong has never seen it.
In fact, I have seen it before, but every time I see Ren Hongchang, she wears a bronze mask on her face.
The whole face only showed a chin. Judging from the body shape, it was graceful and attractive, but I didn’t know what it looked like.
I asked Dong Yuan privately and then I realized the whole story.
Ren Hongchang was originally from Bingzhou, and he was particularly beautiful since childhood, like a flower and jade.
It is just in line with the proverb that beauty has been so poor since ancient times that the little girl suffered a lot of disasters because of her beauty, and even her parents died because of it. She was wandering in Bingzhou, and later met Ma Song and brought back by Ma Song.
According to Ma Song's intention, he wanted to give this little girl to Dong Qi as a maid.
But who would have thought that Dong Yuan would see him again and snatch him from Ma Song. Feeling that the little girl's life is bumpy, Dong Yuan gave Ren Hongchang an idea. Put on that pair of demon-like masks to avoid causing trouble.
After hearing this, Dong Qi couldn't help but sigh.
I still think this name sounds familiar, but I still can't remember who this person is.
If he wasn't curious about Ren Hongchang's appearance, it was nonsense. Dong Yuan said that Ren Hongchang looked very beautiful.
However, Dong is a very easy person to satisfy.
With Dong Lu around him, his interest in women will be greatly reduced. As for Wang Ji, if she hadn't looked like Dong Yu, Dong Qi wouldn't have even taken action to save her.
*******
On this day, Dong Qi came to the camp of the Yellow Turban prisoners and watched them build the camp, and the scene was full of enthusiasm.
Beside him, Chen Dao and Huang Shao were followed.
The three of them rode onto a hill, and Dong Qi built a pergola in his hand and watched from a distance.
It was already mid-winter, the autumn grass withered and yellow, and the sky and the earth were depressed, making people feel a little sad.
"Uncle Zhi, I have a very important thing that I want to ask you to do."
Chen Dao was stunned, "Lord has something to do, just give me instructions."
Speaking of which, Chen Dao is fine now. Dong Qi took on the responsibility of killing Huangfu Song on his shoulder, which was definitely a relief for Chen Dao. At the same time, he felt extremely grateful to Dong Qi, and even had the urge to die for his confidant.
I think he is a civilian, without power or power.
Dong Qi is a child of an official at least, and it is like a world of difference compared to Chen Dao.
How could Chen Dao not be grateful for his treatment so much? Therefore, when he heard Dong Qi's inquiry, he agreed without hesitation.
However, Dong Qi was silent and stared blankly at the cold sun in the sky.
"Master?"
"Uncle Zhi, can I really trust you?"
Dong Qi turned his head, looked at Chen Dao quietly, and said softly: "This matter is of great importance, and it also affects the lives of all the Dong family and the whole family."
Chen Dao heard it and took a breath.
I took a look at Huang Shao unconsciously, but found that this man who had been working with him for a long time and even had a very sympathetic relationship was also confused.
"Why did the lord say this?"
"I regard my uncle as my elder brother, and even my uncle is very talented... I just don't know, what about my Dong family in your eyes?"
Chen Dao thought about it, "Happy!"
"Yes, it seems to be prosperous in front of you, but everything has two sides. Prosperity in the past is decline!" Dong Qi seemed to be talking to himself, with some unique future words in his words. He didn't care whether Chen Dao could understand it or not, and then said: "No family in the world can prosper for generations. There are no great ideals, I just hope that in my lifetime, I don't just want to see the decline of the Dong family... Shuzhi, Lao Huang, I need your help."
Chen Dao and Huang Shao dismounted and said respectfully: "I wish to serve the Lord!"
"Don't live or die, I don't want you to die. On the contrary, I need you to live to help me!"
After saying that, Dong Qi kicked off his horse, and took out three volumes of books and a cowhide map from the bag on the elephant dragon's back.
"Shuzhi, I have three volumes of military books and one volume of map. You must think clearly. Once you accept these two things, you will be closely related to my Dong family. If you carry me in the future, no matter you go to the ends of the world, no matter whether you are a general or a general or emperor, I will kill you."
The tone is cold and the expression is calm.
But in this coldness and calmness, Chen Dao felt Dong Qi's strong murderous intent.
For some reason, a sense of fear arose in my heart.
This is someone who can do it when you say it...
Chen Dao hesitated for a moment and took the book and map from Dong Qi.
"Chen Dao made an oath here that the lord will never let him down in one day."
This is very clever, but it is also very sincere.
I believe that you, Dong Qi, not the Dong family. If you live, I will never bear you, but if you die...
Dong Qi heard what Chen Dao meant and a smile appeared on his face.
Nonsense, as long as you surrender to me, if I die, will you bear me or not? What does it have to do with me?
Once I die, if I die, I am afraid that the Dong family will not continue to exist!
"Shuzhi, Liangzhou is in chaos now. I plan to prepare for the future and follow Mengchangjun's method of cunning rabbits in three holes to respond to future changes. The military book is left by General Ma Yuan of Fubo, and it contains training minutes of Fubo's army that year. The map is drawn on the map of Liangzhou and the Western Regions. I will give you all the trolls and Qin Hu soldiers under my command, a total of 5,000 people... Pei Yuanshao, Dong Zhao, Dong Qi and Han De are the generals, Lao Huang is your military advisor, and occupy Zhangye as soon as possible."
"Zhangye?"
"Yes, it's Zhangye... After occupying Zhangye, I will try to send the prisoners here to you one after another, and take the old story of Ban Yong, the son of Dingyuan Marquis, and station the army in Zhangye. Remember to control the Shandan Horse Farm and expand westward. But don't mobilize too much. In short, I want you to grasp the standards and nail me to Zhangye."
Chen Dao and Huang Shao were secretly surprised.
Dong Qi handed over all his belongings to the two of them.
On the one hand, they were moved, but on the other hand, they had a heavy feeling. The two of them didn’t understand why Dong Qi wanted to occupy Zhangye?
"The world is full of ups and downs, with divisions and harmony. The stronger my Dong family is, the more jealous I will be. My father seems to be incredible now, but I don't know how many people are secretly planning. Today he kills people, and then someone will kill us... In short, be careful, there is no big mistake. I will entrust the lives of dozens of people from all over the Dong family to you."
After hearing what Dong Qi said, Chen Dao and Huang Shao knelt in front of Dong Qi at the same time.
Chapter completed!
