    Chapter 417: Conquest of Goguryeo, accompanied by Zhen Ang

    "Dad, the horse at home died?" Zhen Yao said thoughtfully, but Zhen Tian, ??who unexpectedly ran over, blinked and asked.

    "Ahem~~" Zhen Yao finally managed to avoid being choked, shook his head and laughed: "This horse is not the same horse, we can't say the same thing."

    "Oh." The little girl asked casually, nodded and ignored him. She raised her head and pushed Zhen Yao's arm and said coquettishly: "Dad, eldest brother agreed to take us to play outside the city today, but he  I don¡¯t know where he went~~¡±

    "Oh? Where is your elder brother? Can I go find it for you?" Zhen Yao picked up his daughter, pinched his little nose, and asked with a smile.

    Zhen Tian¡¯s eyes flickered, as if she was thinking about something. Finally, she turned to Zhen Yao and said, ¡°I don¡¯t want my brother to take us to play, but my father and mother to take us out to fly a kite.¡±

    "So you are waiting for me here." Zhen Yao shook his head and laughed, but thinking that it had been a long time since he had played with the children, he thought for a moment and agreed: "Okay, after lunch, I will take you out of the city.  "

    "Daddy is the best." Zhen Tian cheered, climbed off Zhen Yao, took small steps, and soon left the hall, probably to report to a group of brothers and brothers.

    "This girl." Zhen Yao couldn't help but shake his head, downed the wine in one sip, and stopped drinking more.

    Although Zhen Yao was traveling outside the city, the scene was still quite grand. Even if there were no scribes or generals to follow him, it was still unavoidable for him to have more than a hundred personal guards under his command to clear the way.

    As soon as they left the city, several juniors ran out. Only Zhen Ang rode a war horse and followed closely beside his father, although he also wanted to go over and play with his younger brothers and sisters.

    "Go, it's a rare opportunity to relax and take good care of your brothers and sisters." Since it was a trip, Zhen Yao would not let Zhen Ang lose his fun. He waved his hand and motioned for him to go and play by himself.

    Zhen Ang¡¯s face lit up, and he immediately got off his horse and ran out. Although he was older than many younger brothers and sisters, he was only a twelve-year-old kid. It was obviously impossible for him to watch others play in a good manner.

    A group of people were playing on the grassland at the foot of the mountain outside the city, and Zhen Yao happily set out wine and food in the wild, laughing with the beauties.  However, there are always mischief makers at this time. Zhen Tiantian seemed to be tired from playing, so she asked Zhen Yao to hold her. After resting, she said again: "I want to ride a horse. Daddy will teach me how to ride a horse."

    "Let's go play with girl Tian." Zhang Ying said with a smile.

    "Okay, okay," pulling Zhen Tian's face, Zhen Yao picked up the little girl and asked someone to bring his mount.

    "I don't want this, I want that." Zhen Tian didn't buy it yet, she actually disliked Zhen Yao's mount, and then pointed to the red war horse on the other side, which was the colt sent by Lu Bu when Lu Lingqi was pregnant.

    Five or six years have passed, and the colt has grown up. Although it has not yet reached the peak of its life, it now looks like a top-notch war horse. At least it looks incomparable to strangers, which is very similar to its 'father' Red Rabbit.  There is a fight.

    "Ride 'Hongying'? That's okay too." Zhen Yao had already stood up, so naturally he followed his daughter's wishes and asked the soldiers to bring the horse over, and then let little Zhen Tian sit on it.  Because there is no saddle on 'Hongying', it is not comfortable to sit on it. However, the little girl is so excited now that she naturally can't feel it, and she keeps urging 'drive~~drive~~'.

    As soon as Zhen Tian sat on the horse and let Zhen Yao lead the horse forward, she was clearly seen by all the juniors. This was great. Except for Zhen Ang, who could ride a horse himself, everyone from Zhen Hao to Zhen Ye started shouting:  "Daddy, I want to ride a horse too, I want to ride a horse too."

    And walking at the end, Zhen Hong, who was only two years old, also clapped his hands, although he had no idea about horseback riding.

    "Come one by one, don't be in a hurry." Zhen Yao, who was surrounded by many sons, felt dizzy for a while. In the end, he could only call Zhen Ang to his side and said, "Ang'er, come and take them to ride horses. Be careful."

    "Don't worry, kid." Zhen Ang found it very interesting and nodded happily.

    But he soon lost his joy, because after Zhen Tian circled around, her little butt couldn't bear it and wanted to come down.  But who should go up is another question.

    Zhen Hao said that he was the second brother and he should get on the horse first, but Zhen Feng immediately said that the horse was given to him by his grandfather and he should ride first.  Even Zhen Ye, who was only three years old and participated in it, stammered: "I, I am the youngest, I, I go first."

    Zhen Yao sat back on the floor. Zhang Ying handed the peeled fruit to Zhen Yao, but said with a hint of joking: "My husband is so light-hearted, leaving everything to Ang'er!"

    Zhen Yao took a bite of the fruit and swallowed it before he said nonchalantly: "He can naturally handle such a small matter properly."

    "My husband is Liduo." Diao Chan smiled jokingly. Although she is not young, she stillStill full of charm.

    Spending his free time with his wives and concubines, watching his children having fun, this scene made Zhen Yao very satisfied.  And it was because of satisfaction that Zhen Yao did not allow anyone to break his life.  To this end, he has been working hard, and now he has finally achieved some results.

    It wasn¡¯t until the sun set that Zhen Yao took his family back to the city. The younger members of the family were thoroughly addicted to this trip, and they wouldn¡¯t bother him playing in the short term.

    Zhen Yao, who was in a good mood, was about to be laid to bed, but God did not allow Zhen Yao to have such a leisurely time. A palace official hurriedly stepped into the inner courtyard of the mansion and whispered next to Zhen Yao: "My lord, there is urgent news from Liaodong.  The messenger is outside the house."

    "Liaodong?" Zhen Yao frowned slightly. What could happen in that poor ravine place?  Gongsun Du passed away a few months ago, so he gave him face and sent the emperor's envoys to express his condolences.  The position of the next Pingzhou Shepherd was also given to his eldest son Gongsun Kang. What else could he have in Liaodong?

    Although he was puzzled, Zhen Yao began to receive envoys from Liaodong in his mansion.  After hearing the reason, Zhen Yao's good mood instantly dropped to freezing point.  He looked at the messenger with a gloomy expression, almost ready to curse.

    "What does Gongsun Kang do for food? Even the little Goguryeo can't handle it?" Zhen Yao slammed his palms on the desk and glared at the envoy in front of him: "Defeated? He still has the nerve to say he was defeated? He still has the nerve to ask for help?"

    As the chief official of Liaodong, Liu Yuan had a hard time on his mission this time. When he saw Zhen Yao getting angry, he kowtowed quickly and said: "I, my lord, suffered this defeat because of the pain of losing his father. I hope, I hope Zhongshan Gong Mingjian."

    "You go down first, I will make my own decision on this matter." Zhen Yao didn't want to see this person again at this time. In the vast Liaodong, a general on the border of the Han Dynasty was harassed by a small border land like Goguryeo, and even if he sent troops now, he would be defeated.  Wow, it¡¯s really the most ridiculous thing in the world.

    "No." Liu Yuan didn't dare to stay longer. He hunched back quickly and didn't dare to turn around until he walked out of the hall.

    After Liu Yuan left, Zhen Yao didn't think about being slept with. He summoned the messenger soldiers in the house and asked him to call Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Zhao Yun and other civil and military officials one by one. He would not give any countermeasures tonight.  , then no one can sleep.

    When Guo Jia and others were pulled out of their sleep by the messengers, they knew something big was going on. They didn't dare to neglect, so they dressed quickly one by one and went to Zhongshan Gongfu as fast as possible to report.

    "The soldiers and horses of Liaodong went to Goguryeo and were defeated." This news spread to the minds of civil and military officials, which shocked everyone.

    Although the frontiers have not been stable since the Qin and Han Dynasties, this definitely does not include Goguryeo. It only refers to the Xianbei, Xiongnu, Wuhuan and other nomadic peoples.  Now that these powerful clans have been eliminated one after another, Goguryeo has risen to prominence?

    You must know that the current Goguryeo is not an awesome existence where Yang Guang and Li Shimin were defeated hundreds of years later and the Han people (Yang Guang and Li Shimin claimed to be Han people, in fact, let¡¯s not say it) lost hundreds of thousands of troops.

    Today¡¯s Goguryeo is still in a slave society, or it is more appropriate to say that it has just emerged from the Stone Age.  How could such a group of people with wooden sticks and wooden arrows in their hands, and not even a few war horses, defeat the Han soldiers?

    In Zhen Yao's impression, Gongsun Du's officers and soldiers were not such useless people. Not once Gongsun Du died, one or two of them were prepared to die on the battlefield and follow him.

    "My lord, it's strange that Gongsun Kang was defeated in this battle." Xu You thought for a while and spoke first. He couldn't figure it out. Why did Goguryeo win on the battlefield?  Rely on the number of people?  Or do you rely on national beliefs that don¡¯t even have written words?

    Guo Jia shook his head and sighed coldly: "Gongsun Du just died. According to common sense, Gongsun Kang should not send troops at this time. If Guo Jia guessed, this battle was definitely not the fault of the soldiers. If you want to find out the reason for the defeat, I am afraid you have to start from  Start within Liaodong."

    "Internally?" Zhen Yao frowned. Guo Jia's words were almost clear that there were traitors in Liaodong and were colluding with Goguryeo.

    Guo Jia smiled slightly and seemed to have found the key: "Gongsun Du had two sons, the eldest son Kang and the youngest son Gong. Just imagine, if Gongsun Kang sent troops to conquer Goguryeo but returned defeated, the lord and the emperor would definitely be angry. Who would benefit then?  "

    "What brothers are fighting each other." Zhen Yao's eyebrows flashed with gloom. Gongsun Gong and Gongsun Kang were fighting each other, which had nothing to do with him.  But if it affects the Han Dynasty and even causes heavy losses to the people, Zhen Yao will be very angry.

    Compared with the thoughts and calculations of the scribes, the military generals thought much simpler. Yan Rou was the first to step out, cupping her fists and saying: "My lord, I am willing to lead the troops to attack Goguryeo!"

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? went south to Yecheng, but did not make a difference in the war. Now that an opportunity finally came up, Yan Rou didn't want to miss it.

    "The last general is willing to fight." Although they were beaten first, Xu Huang and Zhao Yun followed closely and asked for a fight.

    This battle must be fought, but how to fight it and to what extent it will be fought must beThe purpose has not been decided yet, so it is naturally impossible for Zhen Yao to decide on the expedition in advance.  So after just nodding to show that he was clear, he asked: "Fengxiao, do you have any ideas about Liaodong?"

    "Lord, this is a God-given opportunity to conquer Liaodong. Wouldn't it be a pity not to use it?" Guo Jia's eyes flashed brightly and he said: "The Gongsun family has been running Liaodong for decades. Originally, my lord was not easy to take action. Now the news of the defeat has come.  , the reputation of the Gongsun family has declined."

    "Pingzhou?" Zhen Yao muttered silently. You must know that this new state was approved by him. The original purpose has now been achieved. It seems necessary to take it back.

    Xu You bowed again and said: "My lord, with the current money and food in Youzhou, a large army expedition does not need Wuji's support at all. Youzhou alone is enough. Besides, it does not require many troops to send troops to Goguryeo. From Youzhou's perspective, ten thousand soldiers are enough."  That¡¯s it.¡±

    Zhen Yao is confident that he can fight against Goguryeo, and any of his generals can take action. However, Zhen Yao's ambition has never been small. Since Goguryeo wants to fight, why not just conquer the surrounding territories as well.  There seems to be a population of hundreds of thousands in the Sanhan area. Even if they are captured as slaves and used to open mountains, it is also a good choice.

    However, Zhen Yao didn¡¯t think it through, so he didn¡¯t say anything. After discussing what might happen if he sent troops to Liaodong, Zhen Yao waved all the civil and military officials to go home and discuss the matter of sending troops tomorrow morning.

    When everyone left, Zhang Ying came in with a food tray and whispered: "Husband, drink some soup to nourish your stomach first."

    "Okay." Zhen Yao wasn't hungry yet because he didn't smell the fragrance, but when he saw there was something to eat, his unsatisfied stomach began to growl.  Let Zhang Ying sit next to him, enjoy the supper together, and talk about what was discussed just now.

    Having been with Zhen Yao for decades, Zhang Ying still knew the current situation in the Han Dynasty and its surrounding areas very well. She immediately asked in confusion: "Goguryeo is a tiny place, why do you need your husband to pay so much attention to it?"

    Zhen Yao didn¡¯t know how to explain it to Zhang Ying. Could it be that this was a complex attached to traveling through time?  After forcing these questions away, Zhen Yao whispered: "This time, Yao wants Ang'er to go on an expedition with several generals!"

    "Ang'er?" It was about her son. How could Zhang Ying not lose her composure and exclaimed: "He is still so young, how can your husband let him go to the battlefield?"

    Knowing that Zhang Ying would have this expression, Zhen Yao shook his head helplessly: "It's not that he is asked to go into battle to kill the enemy, but that he is asked to see and learn. Staying in Wuji all the time is like working behind closed doors. How can he do it? What's more, the disaster in Liaodong  , the reason was that after the death of Gongsun Du, his two sons were quarreling over each other, and Yao wanted him to see it with his own eyes, which would be good for him in the future."

    "Husband, there is no need to clarify Zhen Yao's words. Let Zhen Ang witness such a thing. It can be said that Zhen Ang's status as the heir is already very solid.  As a mother, Zhang Ying should be happy.  But she couldn't laugh, she was just a little sad. Her son was still so young and had to learn about many cruel and bad things.

    Zhen Yao hugged Zhang Ying with her right hand and said with a smile: "For the future and for our descendants, no matter how reluctant we are, we must let Ang'er go and have a try. Does Ying sister know Yao's considerations?"

    "Yeah." She agreed in a whisper like a mosquito, and Zhang Ying buried herself in Zhen Yao's arms, closed her eyes, and stopped thinking about it.

    On the second day, Zhen Yao issued his order. To his delight, Zhao Yun and Yan Rou received the general orders to go out, and they not only attacked Goguryeo alone, but also Dongwoju, south of Goguryeo, and the Sanhan Peninsula.

    The two generals Wuji are assigned 15,000 troops and horses, and the food, grass and baggage are guaranteed to be sufficient. With such conditions, let alone attacking Goguryeo and Samhan, it is enough to go to sea and continue to fight south.

    These arrangements did not go beyond the expectations of Guo Jia and others, but Zhen Ang also went with the army, which made many people's expressions change.  What Guo Jia was thinking in his heart was that his lord had finally begun to train his juniors, but Zhao Yun and Yan Rou felt that no matter how careful they were in this expedition, even if they lost another battle, their young lord would not be hurt.

    As autumn entered, tens of thousands of troops set off from the north gate of Wuji, and a group of beauties from Zhen Yao's family came to see them off.

    Zhen Yao¡¯s decision made the girls feel very distressed. Zhen Ang is only so young and has just learned how to ride a horse. Can he adapt to the march of soldiers and horses?  And the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, who knows what will happen.

    In the days leading up to the expedition, Lu Lingqi asked Zhen Yao more than once to go with the army, and the sisters were very supportive.  However, Zhen Yao was determined to ask his son to go out and suffer some hardships. He did not relent no matter how the other girls begged him.

    Because of this, Zhen Yao spent several nights sleeping alone, which made Zhen Yao, who was used to sleeping on a gentle pillow, extremely uncomfortable.  Fortunately, Zhang Yingming was reasonable and knew that Zhen Yao was doing this for his son's good. He sneaked into Zhen Yao's room at night without telling her sisters, and allowed Zhen Yao to get over her addiction to 'stealing'.

    The soldiers and horses slowly left the city, but Zhang Ying was still reluctant to let go of her son.?Zhen Ang pulled the cloak behind his back and said with a forced smile: "Ang'er, you must listen to General Zilong and General Jianzheng outside. Ask these two generals for advice. Do you understand?"

    Zhen Ang is not very old, but due to Zhen Yao's years of painstaking teachings, his temperament is quite calm. His little face is full of excitement and determination. He nodded to his mother and said: "Mom, don't worry, Ang'er will be obedient."  .¡±

    After Zhang Ying finished talking, it was Diao Chan's turn to pull him to her side: "Come here, Ang'er, remember to eat on time, don't hold on when you are hungry, you are still growing."

    After Diao Chan finished speaking, Cai Yan, Lu Lingqi, and Zhen Mi also gave a few instructions. Er Qiao and Mi Zhen, who were not very close to Zhen Ang, had already said it to their sisters, so of course they couldn't leave behind.  Although the same words are repeated over and over again, the instructions are always what the girls want.

    Zhen Yao couldn't stand it anymore. Almost all the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses had left the city. The daughters at home were still dragging Zhen Ang. Maybe they thought that this would save him from going to war.  He coughed twice and said, "Okay, how can we let a little kid waste time when the army goes out?"

    "Go, get on your horse and follow the two generals, think more about everything, talk less, and go." Zhang Ying gave one last instruction and asked Zhen Ang to step on the stirrup and mount the war horse.

    Although the little guy is not wearing armor, he is dressed in the tight clothes he wears when practicing martial arts, with a just-fitting cloak. He is holding the reins of his mount with one hand and holding back with the other. He looks like a young general.  .

    "The one who is leaving will definitely not be able to stay. Among the girls, Zhang Ying and the other girls who had a deep relationship with Zhen Ang couldn't help but cry. They looked at the little guy's retreating back and gradually disappeared outside the city.

    "We're back, we're not separated by life and death, so why are we crying!" He said this verbally, but Zhen Yao's heart was no less reluctant than the other girls. But as a husband and a lord, he must have a role to play, and many things  It's helpless to be inconsistent with appearance and inside.

    Not to mention that the daughters of the Zhen family were depressed for half a month because of Zhen Ang's departure. Zhen Ang, who went on an expedition with the army for the first time, felt very sad after the initial excitement passed.

    First of all, it was physical. He had never traveled long distances on horseback. Zhen Ang¡¯s buttocks had long been numb from the shock, and his hands and feet had become weak. He just stared straight ahead with his stubborn eyes, no matter how Zhao Yun and Yan Rou persuaded him,  He refused to dismount his horse and take a carriage instead.

    And for several nights in a row, I slept alone in a cold tent, without my mother, my brothers, my sisters, no good food, and no comfortable bed.  Little Zhen Ang, who is only twelve years old, finally knows what loneliness is.

    Listening to the faint sobs coming from the tent, Yan Rou wanted to open the curtain several times, but finally put down her arms, looked at Zhao Yun, and sighed: "If you can survive this, young master, you will never be like this in the future."  Lord, how much difference is there?"

    Hearing these words, Zhao Yun also nodded solemnly.
