In the early morning of the second day, He Yan and Xiao Jue had an early meal and went to the martial arts field in Jiyang to see the Jiyang City Army here. Lin Shuanghe did not follow and rested in the Cui Mansion. Liu Buwang continued to track down the whereabouts of those Utuo people, and went out at the same time as He Yan and the others.
There are many rivers in Jiyang City, the city is built on the water, and the water flow cuts the flat land into large and small pieces. Therefore, large open spaces are not easy to find. The martial arts field was renovated in a place relatively close to the palace, for no other reason, only there was a large open space here.
When He Yan and Xiao Jue passed by, they met Cui Yuezhi. When Cui Yuezhi saw the two of them, he cupped his hands with a smile: "Captain Xiao."
Seemingly seeing He Yan's surprise, Cui Yuezhi smiled and patted Xiao Jue's shoulder: "Actually, the second day you came to Jiyang, I began to doubt. Even my concubine could see that, you There is really nothing similar to my Cui family. How could it be my elder brother's son? It was only later that I brought you into the palace, and His Highness called you into the palace from time to time. One had to act stupid, it was hard to explain."
This Cui Yuezhi is quite smart.
He "hehe" laughed twice, his simple and honest face, but his eyes were a little shrewd: "His Royal Highness thinks I'm stupid, then I'll be stupid, there's nothing wrong with being stupid."
He Yan knew that Cui Yuezhi could become Mu Hongjin's confidant, not only because of his bravery, nor because of his past friendship with Mu Hongjin's childhood sweetheart, but because he was just the right "stupid".
With such a honest, loyal and brave subordinate, of course, he must be trusted and reused.
He is a very wise man.
Cui Yuezhi looked at Xiao Jue again: "His Royal Highness told me that from today onwards, all the Jiyang City Army will be under the command of Governor Xiao." Yes. Cui will fully cooperate with Governor Xiao, the people of Jiyang City, and rely on Governor Xiao for protection."
"Has His Highness started to transfer the people in the city?" He Yan asked.
"Starting today, it's just..." Cui Yuezhi sighed, "It's not an easy task."
The people of a city, who are used to living here, suddenly got the news that Jiyang was in trouble, and then evacuated the city, naturally panicked in their hearts. Those who are sick, old, and unattended are simply inseparable. Those who have family business and shops in the city, how can they safely leave everything behind
"However," Cui Yuezhi cheered up, "I have always heard that General Feng Yun is invincible in battle, and Cui has long wanted to meet him. I didn't expect Dudu Xiao to be younger than he imagined, and he is still alive like this. Handsome," he half envied and half sighed: "How can there be such a person in the world who is so favored by God?"
He Yan: "..."
This preferred experience, I am afraid that ordinary people can not afford.
Talking and talking, he has already walked to the edge of the martial arts field. Because Jiyang City is close to the water, it has not fought for many years. The soldiers have no armor, only cloth armor, the cloth armor is blue, and each holds a long spear. Probably doing a lot of strength work, it seems that all of them are mighty and powerful. It's just that He Yan can see at a glance that their formation is too ineffective, like a flower shelf, or a somewhat outdated flower shelf.
Over the years, I am afraid that Mu Hongjin did not spend too much thought on training troops in the city army, but it is understandable. Jiyang has been with Le Anping since the generation of King Mengji, let alone fighting, even in the city. Stealing and kidnapping are all good things. The folk customs are simple and simple, so there is no need to spend more time on this.
"Be prepared for danger in times of peace, and be prepared to be prepared." He Yan shook his head, "Jiyang's city army has been slack for too long."
Cui Yuezhi looked at He Yan, he already "knew" from Mu Hongjin's mouth that He Yan was Xiao Jue's subordinate, but the "subordinate" he thought was Xiao Jue's maid for his trip to Jiyang It is more in line with the identity of "Qiao Huanqing" and must be prepared as a "beautiful wife". Although he had doubted in the middle, the relationship between this maid and Xiao Jue was too casual, but when he heard He Yan's words, he was a little curious: "What can Yuyan see?"
"Cui Zhongqi, my surname is He, and my name is Yan. I can't see anything else about Yan of Heqing Haiyan, but I just feel that this formation of the Jiyang City Army is a bit old-fashioned. In our Shuojing, it was not a few years ago. Hit like that."
"Miss Yan," Cui Yuezhi raised his chest and said disapprovingly, "the newer the formation is not the better, and it is necessary to see if it is suitable for use. This formation was discussed and studied with my colleagues in the army at that time. It is very suitable for the terrain of Jiyang. How can it be called old?”
He didn't dare to boast that he was better than Xiao Jue, but Xiao Jue's subordinates were still comparable. A good army formation takes years to grind out. What He Yan said in his mouth is not a new dish. It should be fresh and change every three to five. Who can change it
He Yan saw that there were loopholes in this army formation, and it was not easy to attack him. She glanced at Xiao Jue again, and saw that Xiao Jue did not speak, that is to say, she did not mean to oppose her, she thought about it, and then said euphemistically: "Let's not mention the army formation, just look at the movement of the city army here, it is more like Practice, go to the battlefield, I'm afraid something is missing."
"What's wrong?" Cui Yuezhi asked.
"Courageous." He Yan said: "These city troops can only deal with soldiers who are inferior to them, or soldiers on par with them. If there are soldiers who are more fierce and cruel than them..." He Yan shook his head: "I'm afraid we can't win."
When they were talking, they had already walked to the front of the martial arts field, and what He Yan said fell into the ears of the soldiers at the front. The young man standing at the forefront was stabbing forward with a long spear in his hand. Hearing this, he couldn't help but glance at He Yan.
When Cui Yuezhi heard He Yan say this about his soldiers, he was a little unconvinced: "What Miss Yan said, it seems that our Jiyang army is made of tofu."
He Yan didn't lie. I'm afraid this group of Jiyang City troops have not really been on the battlefield, and they are worse than Liangzhou Wei's recruits. After a long time of comfort, the tiger's claws will lose strength. What's more, the Uto people came prepared, and they would never be as soft as lambs.
"I'm just a little worried." He Yan said.
"This girl," suddenly someone spoke, He Yan turned to look, it was the young brother who was holding a spear and was standing in the first place. His complexion was tanned by the sun, but he looked very Jun Lang, he was not afraid of Xiao Jue standing on the side, looked at He Yan and said coldly: "What do you mean by saying that our city army is worthless? Although Jiyang City has been peaceful for many years, the city army is training hard every day. Don't dare to slack off for a day. Before the girl is in it, it's better not to jump to conclusions easily."
He Yan said: "I don't come to a conclusion easily."
That little brother didn't know He Yan or Xiao Jue's identity. He thought it was Cui Yuezhi who brought his nephew and nephew's daughter-in-law to watch the army. He was probably young and didn't know how to hide his emotions. With some righteous indignation, he said to He Yan, "How can a woman understand the matter of a man in the army?"
He Yan: "..."
He Yan thought to himself, if the woman is really going to get angry, ten men in the army might not be enough to fight.
You must know that if the Jiyang City Army were to deal with the Uto people with such an arrogant face, there would be no victory in this battle. She was thinking about how to euphemistically destroy this person's aura, when she suddenly heard Xiao Jue's voice.
"Since that's the case, you can try it with her."
He Yan looked at Xiao Jue. The soldier who spoke was also a little surprised, as if he did not expect him to make such a shabby proposal.
"This... is not good?" He Yan hesitated.
The soldier felt a little comfort in his heart, thinking that this woman was very sensible, and before he could go down the slope, he heard the rest of He Yan's words: "Anyway, it is also a soldier of Cui Zhongqi, if his morale is damaged, what will happen in the future? manage?"
Cui Yuezhi: "..."
He was also thinking that Xiao Jue's proposal was too hasty, and when he heard He Yan's words, he really didn't know what to say. Cui Yuezhi is also a martial artist, but he can't directly touch He Yan's bones. From the appearance alone, He Yan is thin and weak, and he really can't see anything powerful. Xiao Jue said this, this girl should know a little bit of kung fu, but compared to Mu Yi, she might still be too big.
Seeing her thin arms and legs, Mu Yi could easily break her arms.
He Yan looked at Xiao Jue, and in the morning light of the martial arts field, the young man's figure was like jade, like a spring willow Yuxiu. Arrow Xiu is easy to use weapons, here, he is no longer the second son of Xiao, but the governor of the right army, General Feng Yun.
Mu Yi - The soldier hasn't spoken yet, He Yan has already looked at him and smiled: "How is it? Brother, do you want to fight me?"
She is still wearing the red riding uniform worn by Jiyang women, black boots, and the whip hanging on her chest is cute and cute. She looks lively and harmless, just like countless little ladies picking flowers and sniffing in the spring of Jiyang, there is no difference. .
Most young men always have a bit of a competitive spirit. If a girl is provocative, she is still a good girl, and she always has to prove herself a little bit. The same is true of Mu Yi, she only thought that she had already given this girl a chance, but if she wanted to be reluctant, she could only give her a taste of the power of the Jiyang City Army.
Thinking of this, Mu Yi cupped his hands and said, "Offended."
He Yan smiled slightly, turned over and swept up, and stepped on the wooden stake next to her. Others saw only a red swallow, which had landed on the open space in the center of the martial arts field in a blink of an eye. She slowly pulled out the purple jade whip from her waist. Make a "please" gesture.
The layman watches the fun, the layman watches the doorway. It's unusual to make an appearance. Mu Yi was slightly surprised, but not to be outdone, he swept across to He Yan.
One shot, one whip, and they fought together in the blink of an eye.
The surrounding Jiyang City Army had already put down their spears and stared intently at this. One side's army has the characteristics of one side's army. For example, the soldiers of Nanfu are neat and serious, the guards of Liangzhou are free and easy, and the army of Jiyang city is lively and lively like a theater, and it immediately boils.
"Good! Well played!"
"Why can't you, Mu Yi! Don't pity Xiangxiyu!"
"Good girl, beat this kid to death!"
For a while, the voices of cheering and cheering were endless.
Cui Yuezhi stared at the red figure with ease in the center, the whip in her hand was flowing like a trace of lightning. He was extremely surprised. Mu Yi was one of the most outstanding in the Jiyang City Army. Not to mention how he was in the army, if he singled it out, he was considered one of the first among the people here. But even Mu Yi was at a disadvantage when facing He Yan.
Others only said that Mu Yi Xu was merciful because the opponent was a girl. Cui Yuezhi's eyes were poisonous, and it was obvious at a glance that Mu Yi had no chance at all. That girl's whip was too fast and her footwork was too fast. Mu Yi didn't have a chance to take a shot. If this continued, he would soon be defeated.
Cui Yuezhi couldn't help but ask Xiao Jue, "Captain Xiao, Miss He, is he really your subordinate?"
With such a subordinate, he couldn't pick one out of the Jiyang City Army at all, but it was really enviable!
"If you lost to Liangzhou Wei No. 1, your subordinates are not wronged." Xiao Jue said calmly.
Liangzhou Wei first? Cui Yuezhi was puzzled, but He Yan was a woman. Could it be that she had also fought with the men of Liangzhou Wei
On the stage, Mu Yi was in a state of embarrassment, with beads of sweat gradually oozing out of his forehead.
This girl seems to be beautiful and weak, but her movements are fast and invincible. She moves fast, as if she is tireless, and most importantly, how can a woman have such great strength
With a bang, the whip slammed onto the stone stake beside him. The stone stake was shattered in one corner, and the splashed gravel slashed across Mu Yi's face. Mu Yi couldn't believe his eyes.
It was a stone stake, and it was not always possible to cut it with a sword. She used a whip. Not only did the whip not break, but He Yan looked relaxed
What's the point of this
Naturally, Mu Yi didn't know that when He Yan was in Liangzhou Wei before, the days of throwing stone locks were counted in "months". It's not who He Yan is targeting. In terms of strength, everyone present is not her opponent.
Mu Yi was thinking that a long whip had been thrown in front of him, and he was so shocked that he immediately blocked it with the long spear in his hand, and there was a "pop" in the air, and the long spear unexpectedly shattered in two pieces.
The surrounding Jiyang Army was quiet, only to hear the girl's smiling business echoing on the field.
"The last three whips, the first whip, tell you not to underestimate women."
Mu Yi was in a hurry, grabbing the long broken spear and continuing to resist.
"Crack", again.
The broken gun in his hand was shattered by one blow again.
The powerful female warrior tilted her head and sighed: "Second whip, arrogance, is a taboo in battle."
In the palm of his hand, there was only a spear head that was not as long as a slap. Mu Yi was unarmed for a while, and the third spear was already flying in front of him with a strong wind, making him unavoidable.
"Third whip, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."
When the long whip rushed in front of him, it curled up mischievously, landed in his hand, and swept away the gun head in his hand. When Mu Yi came back to his senses, the girl with the red dress and black hair had already tossed his iron gun up and down to play with, came over and patted his shoulder, returned the gun to him, and said with a smile, "There is someone outside of us. There is a day outside the sky, young man, you must continue to work hard."
She crossed Muyi and left with a smile.
The companions crowded over and asked: "Isn't it? Brother Mu, you lost too fast? Did you show mercy on purpose? How can you be so unwilling!"
"Don't talk nonsense," Mu Yi said angrily and angry, "I have no mercy!"
The partners looked at each other, and someone said, "No mercy? Is she really that powerful?"
"impossible?"
Someone else pointed at his face and said, "Muyi, why are you blushing?"
Cui Yuezhi didn't have the heart to teach him a lesson at the moment when the clattering voices in the distance fell into his ears. Just sigh, how fast the time is, half a stick of incense can't be reached.
He defeated the most outstanding person in the Jiyang Army in this way, and Cui Yuezhi could clearly see that He Yan didn't use all his strength, otherwise, as long as her whip was not aimed at Mu Yi's spear, it was aimed at Mu Yi. This person, Mu Yi, will suffer a lot now.
"Dudu Xiao has a good man." Cui Yuezhi said sincerely, thinking of what he had just said, he was a little worried, "Jiyang's army is not as good as Liangzhou Wei, but..."
"Liangzhou Wei has already fought against the Uto people once," He Yan happened to come over and said after hearing the words, "The Utuo people are brutal and cunning, which Cui Zhongqi could not imagine. It will never be as good as me. With such kindness, if the Jiyang city army cannot win, it will be a disaster for the people of the whole city."
Cui Yuezhi fought a cold war.
"The most important issue is not the city defenders." Xiao Jue said.
"what is that?"
"Jiyang has a lot of water, and the Uto people can only attack by water. This battle is destined to be fought on water. The reason why your troops are outdated is precisely because they are not used for water attack."
Cui Yuezhi frowned, "Can the Governor make it more clear."
He Yan looked at Xiao Jue and felt a little excited. Unexpectedly, Xiao Jue and her thought of going together.
The young man lowered his eyes: "The boat."
The most important thing is the boat.
…
In the attic, the man looked back, lowered his head and smiled.
Ying Xiang said softly, "I didn't expect Miss He to be so good at her skills."
Although He Yan had already known that He Yan was among the best in Liangzhou Guards, but after all, he had never seen it with his own eyes. It's hard to imagine that the girl who fights with people in the martial arts field is more eye-catching than when she is a girl standing quietly. She is also a beautiful woman, but Yingxiang felt that He Yan's beauty was especially special among women in the world. But it is because of this special that the people who can appreciate her will not be as many as those who appreciate the beauty of the world.
"Fourth Young Master," Ying Xiang said, "Today, Princess Mengji has begun to evacuate the people in the city. Would you like to come with me?"
"The teacher sent me to Jiyang just to keep an eye on Xiao Huaijin, Xiao Huaijin is here, how can I evacuate alone?" Chu Zhao's eyes fell on He Yan, who seemed to be talking to Xiao Jue, and smiled faintly. .
"Captain Xiao stays in Jiyang. Even if the Utuo people come, the commander can protect himself, but the son does not know martial arts, so staying in the city will inevitably be dangerous." Ying Xiang wanted to persuade him again.
"The more dangerous it is, the more it will prove my loyalty to the teacher." Chu Zhao smiled indifferently, "Yingxiang, don't you understand? The teacher gave me this matter and gave me two options. One way. Road, die here, another way, live, get things done and go back to Beijing. If things don't work out, I'll go back alive and die, understand?"
Ying Xiang was silent for a moment, then said, "Understood."
"You don't need to worry," Chu Zhao put his hands behind him and looked into the distance. "Besides, now, I have a good friend who knows martial arts. Since I'm so righteous and innocent, if I want to come... I should also protect my safety."
Ying Xiang followed his gaze and looked at He Yan in the distance. After thinking for a while, she reminded: "Young Master, Miss He is the subordinate of Dudu Xiao."
"You also said that you are a subordinate." Chu Zhao smiled and said, "There is no fixed relationship in the world. A loyal partner will be a terrifying old enemy in the next moment."
He had seen a lot of this kind of thing.
People are fickle.
…
In the palace, Mu Xiaolou jumped off the stone ladder with a box in his arms and shouted, "Grandma!"
Sitting in the hall, Mu Hongjin looked at her when she heard the words, her eyes were slightly tired: "What's the matter, Xiaolou?"
"Aunt Tong asked me to only take the important things, but I like everything." Mu Xiaolou said: "Aunt Tong said that the carriage can't be put down, so these grandmothers will put it away for me first, okay? When I return to Jiyang, Then ask your grandmother for it."
Mu Hongjin opened the box with a smile. The box was full of gadgets, crickets made of wood, a spinning top, a puppy made of paper, a whistle that sang when you blow it...
Most of them were things that Cui Yuezhi bought from the street to please Mu Xiaolou, and some were robbed by Mu Xiaolou from friends of the same age who were guests in the house. This is her baby too.
Mu Hongjin closed the lid of the wooden box and handed it to the maid beside him, saying, "Okay, grandma put it away for Xiaolou. When Xiaolou returns to Jiyang, ask me for it again."
Mu Xiaolou nodded, "Grandma must take care of it."
Mu Hongjin laughed and nodded her forehead: "Got it, Cai Fan."
"Grandma," Mu Xiaolou jumped onto the soft slump, hugging her waist coquettishly, "Why should I leave Jiyang? I don't want to leave my grandmother, can I not go to Uncle Wang's birthday banquet?"
"Nonsense," Mu Hongjin said, "how can you not go? You are the future princess, and only you can represent Jiyang."
"Don't you want to go..." The little girl was rude, "How do I know what that Uncle Wang looks like and how to get along well, what if he is fierce?"
"No, they will treat you very well." Mu Hongjin patted her head, and her tone was gentle and stern, "Xiaolou, you are no longer a child, grandmother can't accompany you for the rest of your life, One day, you will have to be on your own and take on many things alone. Grandma can only rest assured when you see you grow up."
"When you grow up, you have to grow up slowly," Mu Xiaolou was puzzled. "It's not the bamboo shoots in the mountain pass. It broke the ground overnight."
Mu Hongjin was amused by her words, and after laughing, her eyes were filled with worry again.
Running out of time.
The Utuo people are hidden in the dark. She has already made moves in the past few days. She must send Mu Xiaolou out. Mu Xiaolou is the last hope of Jiyang City. She also planned for the worst, but it was a pity that she couldn't watch the little girl grow up and become an indestructible blessing before her adulthood.
But in this world, why are there so many regrets
