    (It¡¯s the end of the month, let¡¯s see if there are any monthly tickets left. If you want to keep your position, the end of the month is the most important. We all know that you can¡¯t let a month¡¯s hard work go to waste at the last moment, right? We have worked hard until now, and we are close to success.  Only one step away!) Chapter 620 Who else can I scare?  Chi Haonian and Zhong Xin stayed in the room throughout the afternoon and did not move around. At the door were the two of them with their trusted entourage. Anyone who came to bring water was politely blocked. It was not until the sky was getting dark that Wu Yiyi came to greet them in person.  The door was opened from the inside, and Wu Yiyi stayed inside for more than an hour after entering. He didn't know what the three people were talking about.  During dinner, Wu Daodao sent someone to invite Fang Jie, but Fang Jie sent someone back to say that he was still asleep and had not woken up.  Chi Haonian and Zhong Xin knew that Fang Jie did this intentionally, but it was indeed a bit rude, so Wu Yiyi apologized on behalf of Fang Jie, and then arranged a banquet to continue drinking.  This time, it was not just Wu Daodao himself who was accompanying the wine, but all the main generals of the Black Flag Army in the camp were at the table, more than a dozen of them.  Each of these guys has a better drinking capacity than the other. After two rounds of toasts, Chi Haonian and Zhong Xin were already a little overwhelmed. Although they also had good drinkers, the Black Flag Army used big bowls instead of cups for drinking.  The two of them drank exquisitely, but these soldiers were all very rough.  The meal lasted for nearly an hour, and this time the two feudal officials really drank too much.  The two people were carried back to rest. This time they were not put together again. Instead, they lived in separate rooms. The guards brought by Chi Haonian and Zhong Xin followed them to work, but no one paid attention to this detail.  Putting the two people together after drinking at noon was for them to discuss, and separating them after drinking at night was not just because it was rude for the Black Flag Army for two people to sleep in the same room.  The next day, before dawn, the two of them were awakened by a thunderous roar outside. Zhong Xin struggled to get up from the bed, rubbed his head that was almost split in pain, pushed open the window and looked outside.  In the distance, I saw countless black-armored soldiers practicing on the school field, shouting loudly. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Yesterday, the young man who looked frail and frail, stood there in a black robe, and looked very heroic.  The soldiers on the school field were constantly changing their formations as the flag bearers on the general stage waved the flags. The Black Flag Army, which followed the Sui Dynasty infantry formation changes, looked solemn. Judging from the posture, there were at least 10,000 soldiers training on the school field.  , but there is no stagnation between formation transformations and it is extremely smooth.  Although Zhong Xin is not a military commander, it does not mean that he does not understand anything.  Having been in officialdom for decades, what kind of scenes has he not seen?  When he was in Liangcheng, he could tell by looking at the Black Flag Army cavalry outside that they were an elite force. Today when he saw the Black Flag Army infantry training, he took another look at the young man named Fang Jie in his mind.  He remembered that his father once said something to him when he was young, and he always remembered it.  No one can succeed casually, even if they come from a famous family.  How could Fang Jie¡¯s current strength be just due to luck?  He went to the northwest with a mere battalion of troops. Instead of being wiped out in the chaotic situation, he brought back a team of tens of thousands of elite cavalry. In less than a year, he established such a large force in Zhuque Mountain.  The camp, and also trained such a majestic infantry In just one morning, Zhong Xin's impression of Fang Jie changed dramatically.  At this time, Zhong Xin also guessed that the window next to him was also opened, and Chi Haonian looked at the young man in black robe on the school ground with a solemn face just like him.  The two people's eyes intertwined, and before they could have any conversation, they saw Wu Daodao walking over with a smile: "Why did you two wake up so early? Could it be that you were disturbed by the soldiers practicing? I'm really sorry, this is  It is the habit of the general to train his troops every morning no matter whether it is cold, hot, rainy or snowy. I apologize to you two on behalf of the general for disturbing your rest." "No, no." Chi Haonian, who was closer, waved his hand quickly: "  The general's majesty in running the army is admirable." "How about we go and take a look?" Wu Yiyi made a gesture of invitation.  As the saying goes, guests do as they please. Although the two of them had a distinguished status, they were still guests when they arrived at the Zhuque Mountain Camp. They freshened up and changed their clothes, and then followed Wu Yiyi to the school ground.  "Sanjinhou" Chi Haonian hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but ask: "The general was drunk yesterday. Did he say anything to you when he woke up?" Wu Yiyi nodded and said: "  The general got up just after our banquet last night. Because I had told no one to wake him up, he lost his temper and treated two distinguished guests in a disrespectful manner."It's this" Chi Haonian was a little anxious: "Didn't you say anything else?"  " "Something else?  " Wu Yiyi thought for a while and was about to speak when he saw Luo Weiran passing by with a team of knights. The moment they saw Luo Weiran, the expressions of Chi Haonian and Zhong Xin obviously changed. "That one  Could it be Luo Weiran, the original commander of the Ouchi Guards Department?  " Zhong Xin asked subconsciously. " Exactly!  " Wu Daodao nodded: "Now he is also working under the general, not just him" Wu Daodao pointed to the man standing respectfully behind Fang Jie on the general stage in the distance and said: "The man who once  He was the eunuch in the imperial study, and the emperor had special trust in him. Before the imperial expedition, he asked him to bring a secret order to the general. It can be said that the general is now acting according to the emperor's secret order.  " These words confused Chi Haonian and Zhong Xin. Isn't Fang Jie Luo Yao's son? Didn't he stay in Huangyang Road to protect Luo Yao's foundation? Why did he suddenly become the emperor's man? Why?  Suddenly he acted under the emperor's secret order? Wu Yiyi just wanted to make them confused. Seeing the two people's expressions changing, he smiled and said: "Actually, the general was also worried about what the two mentioned yesterday.  .  The general has obeyed His Majesty's order to wipe out the rebels in the southwest, and has the power to make arbitrary decisions when the opportunity arises. It stands to reason that after knowing the situation in southern Xinjiang, the general must lead his army to fight against the bandits. However, there is indeed a lack of food and grass in the camp, so the general  The general has more ambition than strength.  " "If the general intends to go south to fight against the rebels, why should he worry about food and grass?  " Chi Haonian said: "What the two of us said at the banquet yesterday was not a joke!  " Zhong Xin also said: "Since the general has His Majesty's will, it is justifiable to send troops to fight against the traitors. Wherever he goes, who will not support him?  What I said yesterday still counts. As long as the general is willing to lead his troops south, no matter how poor we are in Beihui Province, we can still support some money and food. We can't let the soldiers starve to kill the enemy for the country!  " "In that case, don't talk to each other later. I'll test the general's intention first.  " Wu Yiyi smiled: "What I'm worried about is that the general is reluctant to part with the newly established Zhuque Mountain camp. If the general is fighting for the country against foreign enemies, someone comes to take advantage of me.  Is the general feeling cold?  "    "Won't!  " Chi Haonian said: "Absolutely not!  " Wu Daidao sighed: "If you two say no, I naturally believe it, but the general must also think about the hundreds of thousands of soldiers below If all threats are not dispatched, the general will not be able to lead the team with confidence.  Go south.  " "I don't know" Zhong Xin frowned and asked: "How can we reassure the general?  "  Yongzhou stood on the tall city wall of Yongzhou and looked south with thousands of miles. At the farthest vision, there were already smoke. All the gates of Yongzhou City have been closed.  The people who had fled could not enter the city. No matter how much they begged, the city gates were not opened. The soldiers guarding the city looked moved, but they did not dare to disobey the military orders. In fact, this cannot be blamed on the cruelty of the generals.  Now that the Heren and Nanyan armies are close at hand, no one knows whether there are any Nanyan spies sneaking in among these refugees. Once the enemy sneaks in, who can guarantee whether this majestic city can be defended by then?  Therefore, no matter how miserable the people below were begging, the soldiers turned their heads and couldn't bear to look, but they were still determined not to open the city gate. After begging for half a day, the people did not wait for the city gate to open, so they had to bypass Yongzhou and continue walking north.  . In fact, Yongzhou City has accepted a lot of refugees during this period. The people on Yongzhou Street are people who have escaped from the south. The He people are too ferocious to kill, and they are just beasts compared to the Nanyan army.  They snatched money and food but rarely killed people, because they also wanted to snatch people back together. After the founding of Nanyan, the country's population was not large. In addition, because the life in Sui Dynasty was better than that in Nanyan, many people sneaked away.  When people came to settle down in the Sui Dynasty, they would not refuse anyone who came to the Sui Dynasty. Murong Shai did not dare to offend Luo Yao, so he did not even dare to ask, so he had to pretend to be deaf and dumb. In one year at most, a hundred thousand people came.  Nan Yan came over to become a Sui people. The poor and weak people of Nan Yan were heavily taxed, but the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty always took good care of the southwestern Taoists. Every year, Luo Yao would plunder a lot of money and grain, but he could not plunder much.  Not the common people, but the wealthy households. Even if Luo Yao also collects it, it is far lower than what Nan Yan receives. Luo Yao also likes these Nan Yan people to vote because these people have no respect for the Sui Dynasty and choose soldiers from these people.  It reassures him even moreBecause of this, Murong Shao's hatred became even stronger.  He had deceived the Emperor of Shang's will from Big Dog brothers. If Big Dog had not had special abilities, the two brothers would have almost been killed by him.  He finally pretended to be the prince of the Shang Kingdom and established Nanyan, but the country was weak and he had no other choice but to grovel in front of the powerful Sui Empire.  This resentment has been accumulated for a long time, and Murong Shai finally found a way to vent it this time.  So he ordered the Nanyan army to plunder not only money and food, but also people.  Moreover, it is necessary to check that all the people who fled from Nanyan to Pingshang Road will have the word "slave" branded on their faces with a red-hot iron.  As for those He people, they may not even know what they want.  Because they were just killing people.  The current guard of Yongzhou City is Xu Qingzhi, the fourth-grade general of Daozhi Yamen. Although Luo Qiu is also in the city, because he does not understand military affairs, he simply leaves all the matters of guarding the city to him.  Xu Qingzhi was only in his mid-thirties, and was already a fourth-rank general. If there had been no chaos in the Sui Dynasty, he might not have had the chance to be promoted to one of the generals of the Sixteenth Guards in a few more years.  He stood on the city wall and looked at the billowing smoke in the distance, and then looked back at the crowded refugees in Yongzhou City.  "Without these refugees, Yongzhou can survive for two months if it is besieged. Although Luo Yao took away most of the food and grass, there is still some inventory. But now that there are more refugees, it is considered good to be able to survive for one month." He sighed.  He took a breath and looked at the flag of the Sui Dynasty that Governor Luo Qiu had re-hanged on the wall of Yongzhou City. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Now we have to hang the flag of the Sui Dynasty instead Who else can scare me?" I don't know why, but he  Suddenly I want to cry.
