Two hours ago, Gao Queyi held Meng Boqin's seal on his leg and ordered the guards in Yizhou City to send Meng Jiagan out of the city at night and into the Northern Xinjiang Army's garrison.
At the same time, a thousand Northern Xinjiang troops had packed up. Just like when Lu Shiyu's troops received Sheng Wei's aunt and nephew, they confirmed that Meng Jiagan was placed in the carriage and immediately set off with their hooves wrapped in their hands.
Due to some considerations, Bu Nao did not take the official road, but took a remote path and retreated towards the Central Plains.
After walking on the trail, you may feel that the road is very hidden. There will definitely be no one passing nearby, and there is no need to remain silent anymore.
The two personal guards...were they real personal guards that time, but they grew up together with the Meng family. Knowing that he was in a bad mood at that time, they specially reined in their horses and came over to comfort him in a low voice through the car curtain.
Meng Jiaqian regretted it when he saw them. In fact, as Meng Boqin's direct son, he had a direct team, including the servants who had served him since he was a child, as well as his martial arts training partners. After he entered the army to hone his skills, , also went in and became personal guards. They grew up together. He was the most loyal to Bu Nao. He was determined not to follow Meng Boqin's seal and immediately follow Gao Qieyi's orders like the two previous personal guards. .
Meng Jiaqian was seriously injured before, and it was inconvenient to recuperate in the military camp. Rong Suihe did not allow him to bring the army outside the city. After testing the prince and not taking advantage of him being alone, the Meng family Qian decided to take a hundred and eighty soldiers to live in the city.
Because he was completely defeated before arriving in Yizhou City, even though Meng Jiaqin had always been favored by Meng Boqin, he could not help but feel guilty, so he ordered a batch with the idea of "let the people around dad say something nice for him" Soldiers related to Meng Boqin's command to the east accompanied him, but he left his cronies in the army.
He thought at the time that it would be convenient for him to keep close ties with his father's relatives, and that he would be able to communicate with the guards who had just betrayed him, and that the real army would also have his own confidants watching over him, so that he would not be lost just because he was not in the camp. The control and understanding of the wrong army.
Who knew that Gao Queyi came quietly without saying anything, took Meng Boqin's seal, and threw him out
At this moment, listening to the comforting words of the guard who grew up together, I felt filled with emotion. After thinking for a while, I raised the curtain of the car and asked in a low voice: "Then where are you going to go?"
One of the guards said: "General, let's go to Yanbo Crossing first."
"Yanbo Crossing?" Meng Jiagan was startled when he heard this. Although he had lost miserably before, he was actually not an unlearned person. He did not really do his homework before coming to Xijiang. Now that he thought about it, Remember that Yanbo Crossing is not the only way from Yizhou to the Central Plains
He couldn't help but ask doubtfully, "Why do you want to go there? My uncle told him before that Yizhou City Ruming is extremely dangerous, so he can't stay there any longer. Don't we ask Ruming to send him back to the Central Plains?"
The guard said, "Zhudong doesn't know what he said back to the general! He just knew that it was the order of the Gao family leader, so that when we get there, we should find a hidden place to hide and wait."
"On standby?" Meng Jiagan murmured a few words, and was suddenly startled. "My uncle was obviously afraid that he would be in danger, so he specially allocated a thousand of us to ask if he would be escorted. How could he be so good at begging us to go? On standby? Eighty percent, maybe because he was asking someone to trick him, but he was afraid that the legs of the few people left from the East would be useless, so he asked them to go nearby together to hope that things would go smoothly for him, that would be fine; if he lost his legs , and let the people escorting him go in front to help?"
The two guards looked at each other wrongly and shook their heads.
They had been in a camp outside the city before and had never even met Gao Queyi. How could they know such a secret
Meng Jiaqian also knew that truth, and he didn't expect them to be able to answer his questions at this moment. His face was uncertain for a while, and he said to himself, "The person whose eyes are so strong that my uncle is asking for calculations must be related to the overall situation!"
As for the one who is related to the overall situation of Western Xinjiang, Rong Suihe, the king of Mi Zhen County, is currently the most important.
Since Bu Nao cannot go to Yanbodu, he must not deny Rong Suihe, because Rong Suihe must be in Yizhou City at this time, and he will soon receive news of Ruru's invasion, and he will be even more unable to leave. .
As for other people, even if they are working in the Yizhou government office, asking for advice will not affect the overall situation.
Thinking about it this way...
Meng Jiaqian's face suddenly turned red: "The Princess of the County?! My uncle wants to ambush the Princess of the County?!"
He unconsciously leaned out and grabbed the leg and arm of the guard closest to him, "Tell him, has Prince Mi Zhen already received the news that Ruru is approaching Yizhou, so he ordered someone to escort the princess to leave Western Xinjiang?" !”
The guard was startled and said blankly: "General, then... that... doesn't Shudong know?"
"But since the princess has left Xijiang, why would she go to Yanbo Crossing?" Meng Jiaqian let go of his legs in disappointment and continued to think, "Is there any shortcut there... Is there any hidden secret that Mi Zhen has there? "
He thought for a while and suddenly realized, "Did my uncle put a leg on the valley he passed through when he came here, so they had to take a detour?!"
Is this a very important thing? At that time, the Meng family did not know that Sheng Weiqiao had already left Yizhou under the escort of Lu Shiyu. He thought that Sheng Weiqiao was outside the city of Yizhou, so he would leave soon or wait. Set off. Ruru's forward was less than three days away from crossing the border. If the side of the narrow valley was tampered with and became inaccessible in a short time, Sheng Weiqiao's situation would obviously be very dangerous.
After all, her status, especially the fact that Ruming was very pregnant, was enough for Ruru to take the risk of going deep alone to capture her!
And the narrow valley is not far from Yizhou City. Although the remaining soldiers and horses in the Meng family's legs cannot be underestimated, Sheng Weiqiao was wrong about Rong Shuihe's pursuit. Whether there was feelings or substantial interests in Buhuan. None should be underestimated. Meng Jiaqian didn't think that Rong Suihe would neglect his wife's protection. Otherwise, even though Gao Qieyi made the first move, he might not be sure that he would be able to hit the leg with one blow, so that Meng Jiaqian would act later. pass!
"Mi Zhen has always been cunning. The terrain is so narrow and close to Yizhou. How can he not pay attention to it?!" After Meng Jiaqian figured out Hong Gao Qieyi's plan, he didn't feel that at all. My uncle was so clever that he broke out in a cold sweat, "If my uncle really did have his legs or legs done in the narrow valley, can we really hide it from him?!"
What would Rong Suihe do if he knew early on that something had changed in the narrow valley and that his princess would be forced to take a detour to the nearest Yanbo Crossing
Meng Jiaqian recalled what happened to Chi Ji Ji and his party when they passed through the narrow valley a few months ago. He wanted to know that although the news that the Jishan bandits had defected to Rong Suihe had not spread at that time, they were still cautious when passing that place.
Not only did they send spies back and forth to search the entire narrow valley, but they also had people climb up the cliffs on both sides to check.
The Buluoji bandits have been entrenched in Western Xinjiang for a long time, and they don’t know much about that narrow valley. If they don’t know how much they know about that narrow valley, then they have managed to create a few deserted areas that look like they are natural, or they can’t climb in at all. In this way, there would be no doubt that there was an ambush in front of them, and the Meng family and his party were concealed.
When the army escorted Meng Jiaqian into the narrow valley and reached the middle position, they were faced with the dilemma of whether to advance or retreat. Trees and rolling stones began to flow eastward, and the group of people realized whether they had fallen into a trap or not.
Whether the Jishan bandits have been bandits for many years, whether they have military discipline or cooperation with each other, they cannot be compared with the regular army, let alone an elite division like the Northern Xinjiang Army. The army was destroyed!
He was clearly frightened after what had happened. At this moment, his face was twitching with muscles: "That county prince is very thoughtful and accustomed to calculations. He is not an easy person to get along with! Although my uncle is not an elder, what he is good at is shopping malls. There are intrigues and tricks, but Ru Ming fights with each other on the battlefield!!!"
If you want to play business war with Rong Suihe and his wife, the Meng family is very confident that Gao Qieyi is not good. But when the military affairs are important, the Meng family, who grew up in northern Xinjiang and was born in the army, cannot be very optimistic about Gao Qieyi. .
Either intentionally or unintentionally, he felt that he had grown up in the frontier and had been taught by Meng Boqin, the cavalry general. Even if Meng Boqin's military ability was far inferior to that of General Zhou, he still managed to get the position of commander-in-chief of Northern Xinjiang. Is he a decent general? From the perspective of that kind of problem, how can he be better than Gao Qieyi, a merchant
Thinking of that, he felt very anxious and said to the bodyguard in front of him: "Go and tell him: Don't go near Yanbodu!"
"Can Patriarch Gao say..." The two guards were stunned when they heard this.
"He knows that his uncle has his father's seal!" Meng Jiaqian thought quickly and said, "Maybe some of the people who followed him to Western Xinjiang chose to listen to him, otherwise he would not have been forcibly sent out. ! So now, are we going to listen to him?"
The two guards hesitated for a while, then shook their heads: "They belong to General Dongfou!"
Their choice was not entirely based on the Meng family's loyalty, nor did they take into account that Meng Boqin held a high position and had no shortage of loyal people around him, let alone their two young soldiers.
If he is loyal to Meng Boqin, he is afraid that there will be no good in turning around, and he will also break his trust in the Meng family, the direct son of the Meng family, and his future will be completely ruined.
Whether they chose to work for the Meng family, which was seized by Gao Qieyi at that time, and prayed that Wei Yuanzi would not sink in the future, it would always be in their interests.
To take a step back, even if Meng Jiaqian fails to recover, his future will be dim, but if Meng's family does not fall, he will ultimately be a share of the burden. At that time, as bodyguards who have gone through adversity together, they will not be treated badly.
Meng Jiaqian was also aware of the considerations of the personal guards. He had no time or bother to care about it at that time, so he said straightforwardly: "In that case, then just listen to him!"
"General, Lieutenant General Meng is now in charge of the camp. Although we are willing to accept the general's orders, we are talking so little. What can we do?" The two guards glanced at him wrongly and whispered, "The news about going to Yanbodu to stand by is not true, Lieutenant General Meng." Said."
The deputy general Meng they were talking about was named Meng Cheng. He was one of the servants Meng Boqin brought with him when he went to northern Xinjiang.
That time when Meng Jiaqian came to Western Xinjiang, Meng Boqin made him a deputy general. Meng Jiaqian felt that his father was doting on him, so he made a deputy general of some age who was born into a family and was naturally a head shorter than him. He could take advantage of it. He has experience and is not worried that he will look down on his young coach.
It turns out that it was only then that I realized that Meng Shi had already prepared his legs!
"... In that case, let's go and invite Vice General Meng over now!" Meng Jiaqian had mixed feelings in his heart at this moment. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Just say that his wound seems to have burst and he looks very bad. Then..."
Jie Donglai's words became lower and lower, and only the two guards in front of him could hear them.
The more the two guards listened, the more their faces turned red. After a while, they said tremblingly: "Then... General! Then...?!"
"Whether you follow him and try to survive in death, or whether you listen to Gao Qieyi's random instructions and walk into someone else's trap in a daze... We make our own choice!" Seeing that they seemed to be trembling in refusal, Meng Jiaqian's face darkened and he shouted, "A real man should act decisively and happily. If you are like this, what kind of future will you have in your life?!"
... A moment later, the sweaty personal guard led Meng Cheng to the carriage where the Meng family was housed: "General, please go in and take a look!"
The guard's voice was trembling a little when he said that, and his face suddenly changed. He was afraid that Meng Cheng would see the flaw. However, Meng Chengcheng asked if he was worried that after something happened to the Meng family, as a guard, he would be angered by Meng Boqin and his wife. So he was afraid and didn't take it seriously. He was still in the carriage with all his energy: "Young Master Wusun, are you okay?"
As an old servant of the Meng family, whether Meng Cheng showed that he did not forget his roots, he would not address the Meng family's children in the tone of a servant unless it was a formal occasion.
After calling at this moment, it took a while to hear some vague movement, which seemed to be mixed with painful moans. Thinking of what the guards said, the Meng family was talking to them well, and suddenly fell down in the carriage. After entering, Meng Cheng was anxious and asked the bodyguard behind him: "Where is Meng Ling? Didn't you tell me that you asked for a military doctor?! Why didn't he arrive!"
Meng Ling asked the comrade of the guard behind him. The guard was named Meng Ting. Hearing this, his face turned red and he forced a smile. He tried not to wipe the cold sweat from his cheeks: "I don't know!"
"Then why don't you go and have a look?!" Meng Cheng said angrily, jumped on the east horse, climbed on the shaft of the slow-moving carriage, raised the curtain, and asked, "Fifth grandson, you...?"
Before he finished speaking, he saw a cold light suddenly erupted from the dark carriage, heading straight for his chest and abdomen to beg for harm!
