??Also, by the way, Brazil was defeated miserably? Even pseudo-fans like me were shocked!
¡ª¡ªThe day after Liang Qiuwu escaped from danger, forty miles southeast of Boling, the commander of the Western Army's "Jiefan Army" military camp¡ª¡ª
"So, Liangqiu Wu's fierce tiger is out of trouble, and he still has about 14,000 cubs with him"
In the commander's tent of the Western Army, Han Hong from the Xigong Mansion sipped fragrant tea and spoke slowly.
"It's true!" Yang Ling, the commander of the Northern Xinjiang Army's partial division, who had been defeated by Liu Qing for a while, stroked his beard and nodded. "Right now, Liang Qiuwu does have about 14,000 Eastern Army troops in his hands!"
"This is not easy!" Han Hong, the Duke of the West, said slowly in an official tone while playing with the tea bowl in his hand, "The King of Yan now ordered the old general to learn about Liangqiu Wu in Boling, but the old general told her to run away. Now it involves our Western Army, which is a bit"
Before Han Hong finished speaking, Tian Kai, a general beside Yang Ling, cursed angrily, "Isn't it all because of you waiting?! You said that the road from Boling to Jijing has been blocked, and it is foolproof. In this case, the Jizhou soldiers How did you get to Boling? Could it be that you flew over from the sky?! Our army originally suppressed the Eastern Army, but it was because of your negligence that you allowed the enemy to pass safely under your nose, which put our army at a disadvantage. !¡±
Hearing this, Mr. Han's face suddenly sank. From the side, his son, the Marquis of Xixiang, Han Yu, said with a half-smile, "What this general said is funny! After all, it was you who were defeated by the Eastern Army." Isn't it a bit inappropriate to force this crime on my father and son? As for the Jizhou reinforcements Ah. In fact, our army was notified, but my father and son felt that since Boling had an old man With the general and the 60,000-strong northern army here, it should be absolutely foolproof, but I didn't expect" As he spoke, he touched his chin and pretended to mutter to himself, but actually said with ridicule, "It seems like this. It seems that my father and son overestimated the old general and his subordinates!"
"What did you say?!" Tian Kai, who was already very angry, became even more furious when he heard this.
At this moment, the veteran Yang Ling raised his hand to stop him. After taking a deep look at Xixiang Hou Han Cang, he said with a smile in a somewhat apologetic tone, "Junior is not sensible. Mr. Han and The Marquis of Xixiang doesn¡¯t want to be the same as him! As for the sins of this war, you and I can¡¯t count them. How about putting it aside for now and asking His Highness King Yan to decide for himself in the future? Then I will do what the Marquis of Xixiang just said. Is it okay to tell His Highness King Yan that the Western Army¡¯s fault for this battle was not that the Western Army stood idly by, but that I was incompetent?¡±
"" Han Hong, Han Yu and his son looked at each other. Speechless.
You want to ask Yan Wang Li Mao to convict Yang Ling?
What a joke!
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of mind that this old man Yang Ling is a veteran of Li Mao's command. He has worked hard and tried his best for the forces in Northern Xinjiang in the past ten years. Just talk about how much of the Northern Xinjiang army was trained by Yang Ling? Even though the Five Tigers of Northern Xinjiang seemed to look down on the elderly Yang Ling, it was just because Yang Ling was old but did not delegate power to them. If the Han family father and son really dared to say anything about Yang Ling in front of Li Mao, they wouldn't wait until King Yan Li Mao scolded them. I am afraid that the other northern Xinjiang soldiers will also look good to the Han family and his son.
¡°On one side are the veterans who have worked hard for Northern Xinjiang for ten years and trained many elite soldiers. On the other side are traitors of the country who betrayed the Zhou Dynasty and came to join Li Mao. Who do you think those Northern Xinjiang soldiers will turn to?
After thinking about this, the Han family and his son did not dare to ridicule Yang Ling anymore.
"The old general is serious." He waved his hand with a smile. Han Gong changed his laziness and said with a smile, "I also know that this young general is still obsessed with the defeat on the battlefield. Even if the words conflict, it doesn't matter. Will you blame him? I am quite fond of such a passionate young man like this young general."
"That's good, that's good." Yang Ling said with a smile, but did not mention Tian Kai's apology. Instead, he frowned and said with a worried expression, "Speaking of which, Liang Qiuwu is out of trouble, I will It¡¯s really unexpected I don¡¯t know that things have come to this, I believe even if I shave my head, it won¡¯t help, I wonder what Mr. Han thinks?¡±
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? [ You, an old man, have finished talking. How can I regard it? ]
Mr. Han squinted his eyes and looked at Yang Ling for a few times, feeling a little depressed. After all, he could not and did not have the right to scratch Yang Ling alive.
After exhaling, Mr. Han nodded and said in agreement, "What the old general said is absolutely true. It is urgent. We should find a way to make up for the unfavorable war!"
"Mr. Han's words won my heart!" Yang Ling laughed loudly after hearing this, then blinked and said, "Mr. Han, what do you think of this? Since you have the palace of King Yan,??summons, I naturally can¡¯t continue to delay this, otherwise if the delay in the battle angers His Highness, you and I will not be able to get a good harvest It is better to do this. As for me, I will lead the army to Jijing, and Han Gong will stay behind. Here, I will check for me and stop Liang Qiu Wu's army here"
Han Hong's expression changed slightly when he heard this. Although he cursed Yang Ling in his heart for the clever calculation of this old man, he did not leave any trace on his face. He said with an embarrassed look, "I'm afraid the bravery of the Eastern Army is famous all over the world, and its commander Liang Qiu Wu is also a peerless general whose martial arts is comparable to that of His Highness King Yan. I¡¯m afraid it would be a bit difficult to just leave our Western Army here"
"What are they?" Yang Ling leaned forward, narrowed his eyes and whispered, "The Eastern Army is also one of the four towns, and the Western Army is also one of the four towns. How can the Western Army be defeated by the Eastern Army? Furthermore, I am not asking Mr. Han to kill Liangqiu Wu, I just need to hold her back to prevent her from doing bad things in Jijing"
"Going to Hebei to do bad things?" Mr. Han rolled his eyes, as if he heard something, and asked tentatively, "Actually, I have been surprised since just now, why did His Highness recruit an old general to go to Hebei? Could it be His Highness King Yan¡¯s trip to Hebei and Beijing was not going well?¡±
A cold look flashed in Yang Ling's eyes when he heard this, and he whispered with a hint of warning, "I know that Mr. Han is a businessman and pays attention to interests in everything. But in this world, some things are not only about interests Even Mr. Han Now I am thinking about abandoning the dark side and turning to the bright side. It also depends on the intention of the court, right? After all, Mr. Han and his sons have already taken that step"
Han Hong's expression changed slightly when he heard this. How could he not hear that Yang Ling was warning him not to act recklessly?
Having said that, Han Hong himself also understood that it was impossible for them, who had already taken that step and betrayed the imperial court, to return to the imperial court unharmed. Since he could replace the former Duke of Xiguo, he would naturally be replaced by others. replaced.
At this moment. Even if he knew that he had chosen the wrong direction and stood in the wrong position, he could only grit his teeth and persevere. Otherwise, the imperial court would not be able to tolerate them and his son, and even Northern Xinjiang would probably no longer have a place for them and his son.
Thinking of this. Han Hong quickly revealed his feelings to dispel Yang Ling's suspicion.
"The old general is joking. His Royal Highness the King of Yan is wise and mighty. This is the wise king in the eyes of my father and his son. How can he be like the old general who said, he is turbulent?" He said. He paused, and said impassionedly with a confident expression that was almost like patting his chest, "Old General, just go to Jijing with peace of mind, this place. Just leave it to our father and son"
From the side, his son Han Chang was dumbfounded. He seemed to be shocked by the change in his father's attitude. Just when he wanted to speak, his father Han Hong stopped him with his eyes.
"In that case, it's all thanks to Mr. Han!" With a slight smile, the veteran Yang Ling stood up and said with his hands raised, "Without further delay, I will lead my troops to Jijing immediately. I hope Mr. Han will pay more attention to matters here!"
"Where, where, Se'er, send me off to the old general!" Mr. Han said in a pleasant tone.
"¡¡yes!"
Under the escort of the Marquis of Xixiang Han Sheng, Yang Ling left the commander's tent. After greeting Han Sheng at the gate of the camp for a few words, Yang Ling left with his entourage and cavalry.
Looking back at Han Yu, who was still standing at the gate of the camp, Tian Kai frowned and asked, "Old General, do you really think the Western Army can stop the Eastern Army?"
"What do you think?"
Shaking his head, Tian Kai said unconvincingly, "It's probably unstoppable!"
Unexpectedly, Yang Ling smiled slightly when he heard this and said lightly, "I think so too!"
"Huh?" Tian Kai asked in confusion, "Since the Western Army can't stop the Eastern Army, why does the old general keep him here?"
Yang Ling sneered and said unceremoniously, "How can we allow such a profit-seeking and benevolent villain to stay with His Highness for a long time? Why not take advantage of this opportunity and use the hands of the Eastern Army to kill him?" eradicate!
When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. The Western Army and the Eastern Army are both one of the four towns in Jijing, so the difference in strength is not too great. If they can severely damage the Eastern Army and eradicate the Han family and his son, why not do it? ? "
Tian Kai suddenly realized what he said and praised sincerely, "It turns out that the old general is not only good at the art of war, he is also quite good at maneuvering"
"You kid, stop flattering me! Let's go, we will go to Jijing immediately. Although the Western Army will block us for a while, I am still a little worried about the situation over there with His Highness King Yan"
"General, I understand!" Tian Kai clasped his fists and accepted the order, then asked with a suspicious look on his face, "Old general, the general suddenly thought, what should we do if the Western Army violates the law?"
As if he guessed Tian Kai's thoughts, Yang Ling sneered and said, "That old man Han Hong definitely doesn't dare"Who is Liangqiu Wu? The Liangqiu family has been loyal for generations. Even if Han Hong wanted to avoid the war, Liangqiu Wu would definitely not spare his father and son, the traitors in the court!
They deserve it. The father and son of the Han family used to be idle and indolent. They only wanted to be on the high branch of His Highness so that they could sit back and relax and enjoy the glory and wealth in the future. However, they did not work hard to earn merits. As a result, they have not made any achievements so far If no one expresses it in front of His Highness. That's all. If someone says a few words of right and wrong, then the Han family and his son may not have a foothold in our northern border! Otherwise, why do you think Han Hong would agree to this matter so readily? "
"That's it!" Tian Kai nodded with sudden realization. Of course, after the sudden realization, he did not forget to curse the Han family father and son in his heart, saying that they deserved it.
At the same time, Han Yu had returned to the commander's tent. Seeing his father Han Hong closing his eyes and concentrating on the main seat, he said respectfully, "Father, that Yang Ling has left the camp."
"Oh!" Mr. Han responded softly, and then slowly opened his eyes. After a few breaths of silence, his face suddenly turned sickly red. He threw the tea bowl on the table to the ground and cursed angrily. , "Old man, you've gone too far!"
Han Chang's brows trembled slightly, and he ordered his trusted guards to clean up the broken pieces of the tea bowl. He said in confusion, "Father, please forgive me for not knowing what happened. Yang Ling clearly had bad intentions when he asked us to wait here to stop the Eastern Army. Why did father not only refuse to tell the truth, but also agree to it? Say something that shouldn't be said, father." Aren't you pushing us and the generals into the fire pit?"
"Do you think telling this matter will help?" Glancing at his son, Han Hong said with a sullen face, "Since we took refuge with Li Mao, we haven't made any progressso that old man Yang Ling is not afraid to come with me. Li Mao's theory in front of the tent!"
"Father, calm down!"
"Alas!" Mr. Han sighed deeply, shook his head and said, "Originally, according to the plan, as long as we sacrifice Ji Jing, we will definitely be crowned king in the future, but we didn't want it to backfire Who would have thought that even though Wen Qin seemed to be ignoring Li Shou, , but once the incident happened, he sided with the court without hesitation This was really a father's miscalculation!
??Jijing has not yet been captured, and the Eastern Army has not completely surrounded it. They even asked a support force from the Jizhou Army to sneak up on Boling under our nosesChou'er, what did you do with this warning? How can an army then sneak past under your nose? "
"My child is guilty!" Han Chang felt a bitter taste in his mouth, not to mention that moment. Even now, he still couldn't figure out how Liao Li's Jizhou army slipped through his strict cordon.
Seemingly noticing his son¡¯s expression, Han Hong didn¡¯t say anything else, after thinking about it for a while. He changed his tone and said, "Hold the Eastern Army. This is indeed a very dangerous thing, but it is not a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
"Father, how do you say this?"
Hearing this, Han Hong stroked his beard and said in a rather proud tone, "My son, my father was just a wealthy businessman in Yancheng, Xuzhou. How did he get to be the Duke of the West? Do you know?"
Han Chang nodded and said respectfully, "When the late emperor was still alive, he wanted to conquer the Southern Tang Dynasty, but the imperial treasury was out of money. At that time, my father donated thousands of carts of money, cloth, and tens of millions of loads of grain to support the late emperor's expedition against the Southern Tang Dynasty. The late emperor was overjoyed and broke the rules. Make my father the Duke of the West"
"That's right!" Mr. Han laughed when he heard this, and then said earnestly, "My father comes from a lowly background and cannot teach you how to be an official. What my father can teach you is how to be an outstanding businessman! Se'er, you know businessmen What¡¯s most important?¡±
¡°My father once taught me that it¡¯s about eyesight! You have to broaden your horizons and don¡¯t get carried away by the petty gains in front of you!¡±
"Well said!" Han Gong nodded with satisfaction and said in a somewhat sarcastic tone, "At that time, my father spent all his family wealth, and even borrowed money and food from old friends At that time, the world was richer than my father. There are also many people, and most of them laugh at my father for losing his mind, but what happens next? My father has become the Duke of the country, but those who laughed at my father back then were still just wealthy local rich people, and they still support him. Wearing the hat of a businessman who is looked down upon by others, it will be difficult for him and his children to enter the court and serve as officials in the future This is eyesight! How to seize opportunities! "
"Father, what you mean is that the Eastern Army incident can also be regarded as an opportunity?"
"More than just that? It's simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" stroking his beard, Han Hong said enthusiastically, "From what Yang Ling said, Li Mao's situation in Jijing should not be very optimistic. Otherwise, Li Mao would Mao Ye will definitely not summon Yang Ling to Jijing, nor will he privately order Yang Ling to surround and kill Liang Qiu Wu, his fellow student If my father's guess is correct, this should be Li Mao's most difficult moment!"
"So what?" Han Cheng curled his lips disapprovingly and said, "Then Yang Ling didn't screamWaiting to support Li Mao, even if Li Mao resolves the crisis in the future, how much benefit will it bring to my father and son? "
"You kid, have you forgotten what your father said to you just now?" Han Hong frowned in displeasure and said earnestly again, "It is indeed impossible for us to support Ji Jing, but don't forget, Liang Qiu Wu is right here Tell me, father, if there is one person in the world that Li Mao is afraid of, who is he?"
"The senior sister who practices martial arts with him, Yan Hu Ji Liang Qiu Wu" The expression on Han Chang's face changed slightly, as if he had understood something.
"Yes, it's Liangqiu Wu!" Han Hong took a deep breath and said seriously, "King Li Mao of Yan is worthy of the name of the first warrior of the Li family. His bravery is probably beyond the reach of Duke Dongguo back then, but it's a pity that he After all, he is not from the Liangqiu sect. No matter how powerful he is, he cannot be as good as the genius Liangqiu Wu calls him If Liang Qiu Wu is allowed to escape and successfully reach Jijing, then Yan King Li Mao is destined to be defeated. Because he knew this, Li Mao asked Yang Ling to kill Liang Qiu Wu one step ahead, didn't he?"
"What my father means is that if my father and son can stop Liangqiu Wu here"
"Send help in times of need! This is the real help in times of need!" Han Hong took a deep breath and said with a sneer, "Rescuing Ji Jing treats the symptoms rather than the root cause. The most fundamental key lies in Yanhu Ji Liangqiu Wu. It's ridiculous for that old man Yang Ling to see it. He seems smart, but he can't even see through this kind of thing" As he spoke, he paused and said with hatred, "If my father and son successfully block Liangqiu Wu here, in the future Li Mao will ascend the throne, and the first It¡¯s my father and son who have deserved the blame, and Li Mao will also regard me and his son as his confidants. When the time comes, you and your father will go to court again to explain Yang Ling¡¯s crime of escaping from battle, and I¡¯ll see how that old man can deny it!¡±
¡°Perhaps he was convinced by his father¡¯s words, Xixiang Hou Hansheng was also full of joy, but after thinking about it for a while, he showed a worried expression.
"Having said that, if the opponent is the Eastern Army, it may be difficult to defeat"
"The premise is that the other party knows the situation of our Western Army Don't forget, our Western Army is the most secretive among the four towns!"
"That's true" As if he thought of something, Xixiang Hou Hancheng touched his chin and raised an inexplicable smile at the corner of his mouth.
"My child knows what to do! Let's severely defeat the Eastern Army's spirit as my father and son's success in joining Li Mao!"
