Volume 2 Bianliang Mistake Chapter 49 Heavy Rain (Two
After nightfall, the rainstorm of spring that was grounded in the sky became heavier and heavier.
In the Qinfeng army's camp, five hundred light cavalry had already assembled, and everyone was wearing armor. All weapons, bows, arrows and weapons were worn. Because the light cavalry came out straight, even the auxiliary cavalry in the camp had never been brought. At that time, in the military camp outside the city, auxiliary soldiers could naturally be recruited.
Although the five hundred light cavalry lined up in the cold rain, everyone looked extremely excited. In Yanjing City, they were surrounded by such a ragged team for so long. Now, Yao Xianggong finally had an order to lead everyone to wipe out these chaotic troops.
Everyone saw what the riots outside looked like. Compared to the elite field troops of the Song Dynasty, which were armed to the teeth, the Western Army, which was armed to the teeth, was really vulnerable. Since everyone participated in the Northern Expedition, they have suffered a lot, but their achievements were not much. Yanjing was surrounded, which was said to have shocked Bianliang. This great achievement was finally delivered to everyone and moved forward. Maybe everyone will have a chance.
However, some people were a little confused. Why did this military order come so suddenly? Why did there be no sign in Yanjing City a while ago? Why did General Xiao Yao put the central army camp in martial law and prevent it strictly? Moreover, the Western Army is a dignified army. Even if they go out of the city and fight with these chaotic troops in a swagger, what are they afraid of? Now they don’t bring any auxiliary soldiers, and the central army’s infantry don’t bring them. Even if they command 500 light cavalry out of the city in the rain at night, it would be too hasty.
However, the military orders are like mountains, and this hesitation can only be hidden in everyone's hearts, and they dare not say a word. Although the people and horses were trembling a little under the cold rain, the queue was silent, waiting for Yao Gu to lead the generals to arrive.
After waiting for a while, when the sky was about to get the second update, I saw several clusters of wind-proof and rain-proof light balls leading the way. Yao Gu led all the generals, all of whom were covered with helmets and armor, and rushed to the five hundred light cavalry under the crowd of personal guards.
Yao Gu pulled the reins and came to the front of the formation first. He glanced back and forth, and then said: "The Chief Executive of the Capital decided to lead troops out of the city today, gather military forces outside the city, and destroy the chaos of Yan land in one fell swoop. The General of the Chief Executive of the Capital must do his best to do his best and move forward. If he does not obey the order and fails to move forward, you are all following me to fight old wars. You know that the military law is ruthless."
These five hundred light cavalry, together with the leading generals, shouted loudly. But everyone was confused even deeper. Why did Mr. Yao not mention the old Mr. Zhuang’s military order? But who dared to ask for this sentence? Everything today was strange. But it was a kind of slaughter in the face. But everyone wanted to wipe out the rebellious army. Since Mr. Yao gave the order, he would go out of the city to beat him up. Thinking of this, everyone actually felt a murderous aura that was eager to try, and even the cold rain that was striking to the face could not be suppressed.
Seeing the soldiers under his command eager to fight, Yao Gu nodded with satisfaction, and without saying anything, he rode his horse and walked in front of him. Yao Pingzhong immediately urged the horse to go out of the camp before his uncle, and guard against the guards along the way. As long as he could leave the Yanjing City, he would follow the Qin Fengjun's efforts.
Yao Gu led his troops out of the camp in the rain. In the heavy rain, he kept looking towards the direction of the old school government, and just had a thought in his mind: "Old Family, my husband, I am for the tens of thousands of men from Zhou Quan's Western Army, and I am also for you, Zhou Quan's old school teacher."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In Yanjing City, the two angels are located in the office.
Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong also climbed to the highest three-story building in the yamen office, and tried their best to look at the camp where Qin Feng's central army was located, but it was dark and could not see anything clearly.
Geng Nanzhong looked at it for a long time, his eyes were sour, but he still couldn't see it. Finally, he put down his tiptoe and sighed: "I don't know if Yao Xiyan led his troops out of the camp. I'm afraid these military officials may not be so stern... If Yao Xiyan didn't come out, what should I do?"
Although Yuwen Xuzhong was anxious, he was not at all visible on his face. At this time, he pleaded with Geng Nanzhong: "How could Yao Xiyan not come out? We have given him what he wants. This superior will only benefit him but not harm him, and he will do whatever he wants. Yao Xiyan attaches great importance to protecting the Western Army, and has the intention of taking a step further. He can only act according to the arrangements of you and me, Brother Xi Dao, so you can rest assured."
Geng Nanzhong looked at Yuwen Xuzhong and stuttered: "Will the old generation get the news and stop Yao Xiyan from acting?"
Yuwen Xuzhong shook his head, looking confident, and whispered: "As long as the army and horses come out of the camp, even if the old race is blocked, how long can the old race stop? Qin Feng's army disobeys his orders, the morale that the Western Army can still maintain for the time being will be completely in chaos. Who would not think about himself? Old races and old races, even if they try their best to suppress them, how long can they last? When the generals under his command are in a rush of feelings, the old races can only follow the trend and the old races are powerless. Even if they delay, it will only take three or two days to do anything, but what I am worried about is……………”
Geng Nanzhong immediately asked: "What are you worried about? Brother Shutong, is there any change here?"
Although Geng Nanzhong looked graceful and graceful, his identity as a prince master was even more powerful. At this moment, he was far less calm than Yuwen Xuzhong.
Yuwen Xuzhong shook his head: "I am only worried that the old generation will send a message to Xiao Yan, and Xiao Yan will take the lead and wipe out the chaos first."
Geng Nanzhong breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head and smiled, "Brother Shutong, you are a wise man, and you will definitely make a mistake. Yanjing was surrounded by a tight siege, and how long will it take to send a cavalry to kill the encirclement? Xiao Yan pointed out his troops, and he only had thousands of soldiers and hundreds of thousands of troops. He was not a god. How could he wipe out in just a few days? As long as Yao Xiyan acted as expected by Brother Shutong, Xiao Yan had nothing to worry about. Now I hope the great Song Dynasty official family is lucky, Yao Xiyan has already left the camp."
Geng Nanzhong's words were justified and made Yuwen Xuzhong feel difficult to argue. Are he worried too much?
But he and Yuwen Xuzhong didn't know that the situation was much more optimistic than they thought. Xiao Yan was not even close to the main force of the Refu Liao army at this time. He had already rushed to Tanzhou to kill Dong Dalang
Yuwen Xuzhong smiled and said, "I hope that as Brother Xidao said, everything goes well. After this, I will say that I will be sick for several months when I go back to Bianliang. I will be well trained and pacified. It is not easy to quell the storm in Yan."
Geng Nanzhong also smiled: "How can I get Brother Shutong's talent in the court? I will never complain about it after I'm sick. It's time for you and me to take on heavy responsibilities. Brother Shutong is reluctant to stop."
The two talked and laughed, and looked up at each other, but everything was still dark and hard to see on the other end of the rain curtain.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At this moment, Zhang Xian was lying in his bedroom, dressed in his clothes.
He was still as usual, and had never untied his armor. These days, his body had already smelled. He was a clean person, and he was often ridiculed by Niu Gao, saying that he was not like a fighting man. However, in the past twenty days, he had never untied his armor.
Xiao Yan temporarily handed over such an important task. With his weak qualifications, he had long felt that he had weak power and heavy responsibilities among the powerful generals of the Western Army. He could only be more cautious.
At this time tonight, he had no pajamas. He repeatedly thought about why Lao Zong suddenly gave him dozens of his own cavalry guards. Could something happened in Yanjing City? Lao Zong hoped that he could pass the news here to Xiao Xuanzan as quickly as possible? But even though the atmosphere in Yanjing City was strange these days, everything seemed quiet and there was no sign of mobilizing the army and horses.
If a large army emerges in Yanjing City, it will not be so easy and simple. Once it is mobilized, Zhang Xian will know how it will happen. Unless the Western Army has ambitions and quietly draws light elite soldiers and leave the city at night.
If the old man wanted to hide it from him, he could seal his eyes and ears without doing anything. Even if he knew anything, he would never leave the Yanjing City. Why should he give it to him dozens of light cavalry? If it was said to monitor him, it would be too much to do this?
After thinking about it, Zhang Xian couldn't figure it out. He tossed and turned on the couch and couldn't fall asleep.
Just when I was thinking about it, I heard the sound of dying footsteps outside the door. Zhang Xian turned over and said, "What happened?"
Before he could reach the door, he heard a scattered voice that was lowered from outside: "Part 1 of Zhang, Deputy Du, Yu Hou, Old Master"
Zhang Xian hurriedly opened the door and rushed outside the door. He saw the two sable hats he brought in in the rain. The two sable guards who were soaked in the face were very tired. He was wondering, the visitor had already raised his hand and threw an arrow over: "The old master of the clan has an order and ordered Zhang Deputy Du Yu to leave the city from the northwest to use this arrow. The guards of the clan will naturally let the pass. The old master of the clan ordered Zhang Deputy Du Yu to bring all the people and horses together, and be sure to arrive at Xiao Xuanzan's army as quickly as possible."
Zhang Xian's head buzzed and asked loudly: "What's wrong?"
The visitor just replied with a cold face: "How can I know about the old master's announcement? This is a letter from the old master to Xiao Xuanzan, please take it to Deputy Du Yuhou Zhang."
He had already taken out a letter-like thing from his arms, and wrapped several layers of them tightly with kraft paper and oil cloth, with a varnish at the opening. He handed it to Zhang Xian's hand. Zhang Xian took it solemnly, and the person bowed to Zhang Xian, turned around and left.
Several guards with the squid hats looked at the things that the old man gave to Xiao Yan in Zhang Xian's hand. Zhang Xian was slightly silent, put the letter into his arms, and put it carefully. Suddenly, he uttered a loud call: "Look up all the people and horses, we all have two horses. We have dried food and water, go out of Yanjing City, kill the siege, and deliver the letter to Xuanzan as quickly as possible."
Several personal guards responded loudly and immediately ran out. Zhang Xian pulled his belt around his waist and followed him. Although he didn't know what was going on, Zhang Xian also understood that the deadlock in Yanjing City was probably impossible to maintain anymore.
In the rain, in the night, both men and horses set off from their respective locations in Yanjing City. The larger one went south and the smaller one went northwest. The two men and horses were almost opposite each other. Without knowing each other, they went further and further away.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yao Pingzhong led his personal guards to the front of the team. Although the rain was cold, it was still hot in his heart.
If things go smoothly here, I am afraid that the Western Army will change their appearance in the future. My uncle is naturally the old farmer. How can I know if I can lead the army alone like the small farmer? The old farmer is already in a state of dying, and everything is just to keep it perfunctorily. The Western Army will be glorious again, and only let the young and strong take action can we make a move.
Although he was very excited, Yao Pingzhong was still doing things in detail. He passed by and released the warning far away. He didn't dare to move too fast. Fortunately, the rain was low and the sound of the rain covered all the traces. He went straight to the city gate along the way, but he didn't even startle anything. Seeing that he had to walk hundreds of steps forward, he was controlled by the Nanxun Gate of Yanjing in Qin Fengjun. Yao Pingzhong felt that the breath he was holding in his chest could finally breathe out safely.
In the last few hundred steps, although the rain was blocked, you could already see the towering city wall. Yao Pingzhong couldn't help but speed up, crossed his own guards, and rushed forward. He stepped forward a little further, but he immediately grabbed his mount.
In front of Nanxun Gate, several waterproof light balls were tall and dizzy. Under the light balls, a thin old man sat on a bench wearing armor, and there was only a flag official next to him, Zhang Qiyubu tried his best to hide his rain. The white beard under his chin was already wet by the rain.
This old man is the old master, the teacher of the old master
Everyone strangled their mounts, and Yao Pingzhong's face turned redder. At this moment, he was as brave as General Yao, and he couldn't even think in his mind. He could only stare at the thin figure of the old generation sitting in the rain. At this moment, he actually had the urge to dismount and apologize.
Lao Zong had his eyelids hanging down, but Yao Pingzhong and the others approached. Lao Zong turned his eyes and slowly stood up with his knees. He spoke with a full breath: "Where is Xiyan? Let him see me in front of him."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The news that the old generals were sitting on the city gate quickly reached Yao Gu. Behind Yao Gu, the generals of Qin Fengjun suddenly felt a big uproar. Everyone looked full of confusion and anxiety, and they no longer had the joyful look he was eager to try. Someone suddenly sighed: "What should I do?"
Someone suggested to Yao Gu: "Good Master Yao, let's take the troops back to the camp first. Old Master Zhong just asks questions and explains it. We will come forward with Mr. Yao to apologize, just say that it is not consistent and is confused, and encourages the Shangguan to act. At that time, the old Master Zhong will pursue the matter, which is only our responsibility. As long as Mr. Yao is still in power, are you still afraid that we will not come back in the future?"
The five hundred light cavalry behind him also heard the commotion in front of him, and was even more panicked. The war horses that were originally moving quietly in the rain seemed to feel the mood of the master, and they neighed in the rain. Everyone tried their best to hold their mounts and collided with each other. The sound of armor-leaf weapons hitting each other continuously. Under the heavy rain, everyone looked unlucky.
Unexpectedly, when Mr. Yao was acting today, he was carrying the old master on his back and didn't know what phlegm he had emitted. He was so sick that he was hard to see, but now he was still braved such heavy rain to stop Mr. Yao. He straightened his waist for the irrelevant Xiao Yan......Does the old master carelessly care about the future of the Western Army?
Although most of the people were confused at this moment, there were still people looking at Yao Guzun’s wet figure sitting on the horse’s back with expectations. The old husband was old and sick, and he could no longer take charge of the Western Army. Yao’s life in the Western Army is still long-term. Now it depends on whether Yao can compete with the old husband.
Under the heavy rain, Yao Gu stood there for a while, rubbed the rain on his cheeks and ordered in a deep voice: "The army does not move here. The commander of Qin Feng's army sent the above, and met with the old master, begged him to order us to kill the thieves in the Western Army."
At Yao Gu's order, everyone followed him silently and slowly rode his horse forward. The cold rain kept pouring down, but every Qin Feng army general felt like he was in a state of uproar. At this time tonight, perhaps it was the major changes that had not happened in decades since the Zong family took charge of the Western Army. What would the Western Army be like in the future? Maybe it was related to the Lao Zong and Yao Gu's time tonight.
The hooves were so loud, but Yao Pingzhong had come to the front. Yao Pingzhong, who had been the hottest before, looked flustered at this time, stopped his uncle's horse head and whispered: "Uncle, should you just give the old husband a favor? We will just lead the horse back to the camp and let him make the decision. The old husband is so old that he can't take care of it anymore, how long will it take?"
Yao Gu looked at his nephew and snorted coldly: "I think my thoughts are so good that I dare not tell my old husband? Your promising prospects are beyond my expectations. I am afraid that this Qin Fengjun will be difficult to hand over to you in the future."
After this sentence, he ignored Yao Pingzhong, who was stunned and afraid, and urged him to go forward. When he saw the old bird's figure from afar, he had already turned over and got off the horse and walked over in the heavy rain. He stood there more than ten steps away from the old bird, and continued with a deep bow.
The old bird squinted his old eyes, and the rain kept rolling down his face and armor. He just asked, "Xiyan, what are you doing? Haven't I explained all the benefits and interests of the past? Zang is old and sick, and there are some places where you can let go in the future. Zang is the last major decision, are you unwilling to listen to?"
Yao Gu stood up and shook his head: "Old-birth husband, I have been in the army since I was a child. You have been promoted by the old-birth husband. I am loyal to the old-birth husband. I can see what Yao is doing today, and I am worthy of my heart. I am all about the old-birth husband in the Western Army. Please give orders and let me wait for this Yanjing City to quell the rebellion and kill the thieves."
The old man looked at Yao Gu quietly and suddenly smiled: "If the old man just sits here, why don't he get out of here?"
