"Brother Han, you haven't had dinner yet, have you?"
Under the setting sun, Yao Lianghang walked towards Lord Han Huai in stride, with a hearty smile as usual, followed by two young generals.
"The brothers from the cruising camp who went out to patrol today just came back after hunting a big wild boar. We are lucky." Yao Lianghang greeted loudly, and quickly got on his horse, "Come on, let's eat roasted wild boar together! Lieutenant General He has already volunteered to barbecue for us, his barbecue skills are no worse than Shi Ziye... "
Hearing this, Mr. Han Huai couldn't help laughing, and said, "Brother's barbecue skills are really good."
The two hundred generals also knew that the eldest brother Han Huaijun was talking about referred to his eldest son. They seemed to have thought of something and laughed heartily. One of the square-faced youths said: "General Han, our elder son is not only good at barbecue, And the knives are pretty good too."
Another young man with a bearded face laughed and said, "Everyone says, Master Shizi practiced on the battlefield!" The young face was full of reverence.
What did you practice with? Naturally it is the enemy!
Yao Lianghang couldn't help laughing either.
Several young people chatted happily, making the surrounding air lighter.
Looking at these two young generals, the smile on the corner of Han Huaijun's mouth deepened. He had never been on the battlefield with Xiao Yi, but he could know from the words of these people that Xiao Yi took the lead on the battlefield and won the favor of his subordinates with his military achievements. Respect, the Southern Border Army is united as one, not like "that man"...
Han Huaijun thought of something, put away his smile, and his eyes were dim.
Yao Lianghang sensed that Mr. Han Huai was a bit weird, looked towards him, and was about to ask, but he heard the other party suddenly change the subject: "Brother Yao, I'm afraid King Gong will leave today..."
"Oh." Yao Lianghang responded casually, but raised his eyebrows slightly.
At this moment, Han Huaijun's expression was a little subtle, dignified, and puzzled, "Brother Yao, you hit the spot again...but I don't understand why you want him to go back..."
Once Han Lingfu returns to the capital, they may not be able to hide what they did in the western border...
The corners of Yao Lianghang's mouth curled up slightly, and he let the horse pace slowly, saying: "King Gongjun will only get in the way if he stays here, and..."
Yao Lianghang's eyelids were half drooped, and he looked down, looking at the ground with flying yellow sand, hesitating for a moment.
This matter is really important... However, the son said that he can trust Han Huaijun, and the performance of the Japanese and Han Huaijun during this period also proves that the son's vision is correct.
When he raised his eyes again, Yao Lianghang's eyes became firmer, and he said bluntly: "Brother Han, my mission in Xijiang is to attract Xiye's attention. The war is turbulent again, and the government is in turmoil, Xiye feels that there is an opportunity to take advantage of, so he will send troops to support the front line again... "
Mr. Han Huai listened intently, the more he listened, the more puzzled he became. Now their Dayu Army and Xiye Army can be said to be evenly matched. However, once Xiye sends more reinforcements, Dayu Army will be alone here. Isn't war dangerous? !
Although Yao Lianghang is young, he has experienced many battles. Naturally, it is impossible for him not to understand such a simple truth...
Han Huaijun savored what he said just now, and suddenly realized something, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Could it be... Could Xiao Yi intend to...
Thinking about it, Han Huaijun subconsciously pulled the horse rope in his hand.
The black horse under its crotch snorted, neighed, and then stopped on its hooves.
Yao Lianghang met Han Huaijun's shocked eyes without hesitation, and stopped his horse.
Compared with Mr. Han Huai, Yao Lianghang at this moment seemed surprisingly calm, with a pair of black eyes full of sincerity and calmness, he said unhurriedly: "Brother Han, you and I know the military situation here best now, the Western Frontier Army is scared, Even if we can stop Xiye this time with our strength, can we stop the next time and the next time?"
Han Huaijun's lips were pursed into a straight line. He didn't speak, but he already had the answer in his heart, and his eyes darkened as the answer emerged, like a bottomless pit.
Yao Lianghang continued: "Besides, the Western Frontier Army alone may not be able to stop it even this time!"
Han Huaijun's expression was even more difficult, and he sighed secretly in his heart: Yes, without the Southern Border Army, the Western Border Army here and the 30,000 Taiwan Army that he brought from the capital this time can't resist like a wolf. Tiger's Western Night Army.
Mr. Han Huai didn't continue to ask, no matter what Yao Lianghang said was right or wrong, he was a general of Dayu, each was his master, and he just wanted to have a clear conscience!
They didn't say anything more, they clamped their horses together, and galloped away. The yellow sand flew with the horseshoes and the autumn wind, and it seemed to be mixed with sighs, whether it was human or wind...
That night, Han Lingfu hurriedly left Chu Liangcheng with a group of soldiers and rushed back to the capital. He left in such a hurry that he didn't even greet Han Huaijun and the other generals.
After Han Huaijun got the news, he just responded lightly, and continued to study the map of Xijiang with Yao Lianghang. When he was extremely disappointed, he would no longer have any emotions... For him, the current situation in Xijiang , the people of Xijiang, and the soldiers of Xijiang are the objects he needs to pay attention to!
On the battlefield, things are changing rapidly. At this time, they cannot be distracted.
In the next two days, Yao Lianghang and Han Huaijun led troops to launch two rounds of tentative attacks on Xiye. Xiye's army suffered a severe setback. Xiye's coach Ta Hai repeatedly suffered setbacks in Xijiang. .
"Snapped!"
A book fell heavily on the ground, echoing in the huge study room, seven or eight ministers all bowed their heads, silent like cicadas.
After the golden lacquer carving tiger case, a short-bearded man in his thirties and wearing a collared Hu suit sat on a gorgeous high-backed chair, with anger written all over his dark face.
"Your Majesty," a forty-something general below clasped his fists and said loudly, "Tattling the sea is useless, and the general is willing to go out to win Dayu for the King!" His triangular eyes were full of ambition.
Xiye Wang squinted his eyes, but he didn't respond.
Since he was still the crown prince, Ta Hai has been his trusted general, and he knows best how well he is capable of leading troops in battle...
With the troops sent by Xiye today, and with Ta Hai's ability, he has been unable to attack for a long time, probably not because Ta Hai is incompetent, but because the enemy army is too strong.
After pondering for a while, King Xiye suddenly asked, "Who is the leader of the Western Border Army now?"
Another young soldier in his twenties stepped forward and replied: "Your Majesty, as far as the general knows, the military power of the Western Frontier Army has now been handed over to a General Han sent by Emperor Dayu to Western Frontier. In the year of the weak crown, he also defeated Changdi a few years ago."
Xiye King's face sank like water, and his right hand resting on the table was clenched into a fist. It seems that this young General Han still has some real skills. Even though he Xiye has sent 100,000 reinforcements, the opponent still defends the city with the advantage of the terrain, and makes Ta Hai frustrated again and again with surprise attacks. Take Dayu Xijiang...
They have wasted too much time and troops in the western border.
To take down Dayu, you have to work hard in one go, so that you can boost your military prestige!
Thinking about it, a sharp light flashed in Xiye Wang's eyes, and he said slowly:
"Why fight against the enemy, outsmart it!"
Over the years, he hasn't suffered such a setback on the battlefield, so it's time for these Dayu people to know how powerful he is!
Hearing this, three or four of the generals seemed to have thought of something, and their bodies shook slightly.
These people are close friends who have followed King Xiye for many years. They all clearly remember that the last time their king said this was nine years ago. Second, no matter whether it is martial arts or martial arts, he is not considered top-notch, and he is not the most beloved son of the old Xiye king. No one thought that he could become the prince... until he offered advice to the old Xiye king to get rid of the official army.
The official army is Xiye's old enemy for more than ten years, even the nemesis. In Xiye, the name of the official army is like thunder, making the old Xiye king sleepless, and he wants to get rid of it quickly!
At that time, the old Xiye King agreed casually that if this matter could be accomplished, he would make the second prince the crown prince. No one thought that the second prince would really do it.
That's the official army, the invincible official army!
These officers and soldiers still remember that the first sentence the second prince said back then was these eight words——
Why fight against the enemy, outsmart it!
The second sentence is still eight characters: use the other's spear to attack the other's shield.
The second prince really used Dayu's spear to break through Dayu's shield, the once indestructible "shield"!
So the old Xiye King also fulfilled his original promise and made him the prince. Over the years, the other princes had dissatisfaction and struggled, but no matter the conspiracy or the conspiracy, they were all resolved by the prince one by one. Whether it was abolished or exiled in the frontier, only the crown prince stood still, and he personally led his troops to take down several small countries around him. After the death of King Xiye, it was a matter of course for the crown prince to ascend the throne.
And he also lived up to the expectations of Xiye, making Xiye's territory fully expanded by half compared to five or six years ago.
Their king has always been wise and powerful, and won every battle, but this time...
"Your Majesty," the middle-aged general in his forties swallowed and said hesitantly, "It is reported that General Han is the nephew of Emperor Dayu..."
This time, it may not be so easy to repeat the old tricks, sow discord, and frame up.
"So what?!" Xiye King let out a cold snort of disdain, and said slowly, "The people of the Central Plains are known as a state of etiquette, but they are the most suspicious, especially the emperor of the Central Plains! Famous generals are not killed in battle, but by the word 'doubt', which has been the case for thousands of years, and even a generation of famous generals like Ruyan is not exempt!"
What about Emperor Dayu's nephew? ! Before the word "suspect", Emperor Dayu might not even be able to tolerate his son, let alone a mere nephew.
The young soldier was the first to kneel down, bowed his head and cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"
Immediately afterwards, the other courtiers also knelt down in unison, shouting in unison: "Your Majesty is wise!"
The King of the West Night looked down at the courtiers who were kneeling on the ground, a pair of brown eyes glowed like tigers and wolves.
Since he was able to get rid of the thorn in the official army's side for Xi Ye back then, he can also get rid of this mere "General Han" now.
For a moment, only the high-spirited laughter of King Xiye came from the study, and disappeared in the rustling autumn wind...
On Xiye in October, the weather is getting cooler and drier, whether it is the capital of Xiye or the southern border of Xiye hundreds of miles away, the wind and sand are constantly blowing, and the air in the fields, on the streets, and in the yard seems to be It's all gray.
"Yubai, Shangsha City really lives up to its name, the city is full of sand!"
In the sand city in the southern border of Xiye, a helpless complaint came from the courtyard of a certain mansion.
Following the sound, I saw two young men with very different temperaments sitting facing each other in a gazebo in the courtyard, both holding a chess piece in their hands, one in green clothes and the other in black clothes, it was Guan Yubai and Si Lin. .
With a "click", Si Lin dropped a sunspot, and couldn't help asking: "Yubai, we have been here in Shangsha City for five days, what are you waiting for?" His voice was full of curiosity. , somewhat eagerly.
"Don't worry..." Guan Yubai said as he dropped the white piece in his hand.
The movements of the moves are elegant and elegant, but the offensive on the chessboard is domineering...
Watching chess is like watching people, just looking at this game of chess, just looking at the white chess in this chess game that is rushing straight to the sky like a dragon, Si Lin can already feel that Guan Yubai's heart is not as calm as he appears.
The word "Don't worry" sounded like he was saying it to him, but it was actually an official language for him to hear!
Si Lin couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart: That's right, they are in Xiye now.
Guan Yubai raised his eyes to meet his boss Lin's eyes, and then finished the second half of the sentence: "'He' should make a move soon..."
he? ! Si Lin raised his right eyebrow, then looked down at Hei Zi, "You mean the King of the West Night?"
Guan Yubai didn't answer directly, suddenly there was another white stone on the chessboard, and then he took a piece of black stone.
Heizi is already in danger...
Si Lin didn't take it seriously, and continued to play, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, "Xiaobai, you didn't fight the new king of Xiye before, did you?"
Xiao Si at the side glanced at Si Lin and didn't speak, but his eyes already showed the answer: that's natural!
The official army has been guarding Xijiang for more than ten years, and Xiye has been eyeing Xijiang all the time. Which general Xiye has never fought against their official army!
Guan Yu looked at the chessboard with half-lidded eyes, and said: "The current Xiye King's name is Gao Mihe, and he ranks second among the princes of the old Xiye King. The fifth younger brother is eloquent, not as vicious as the seventh younger brother...but he is the one with the best reputation among the princes, but he also knows how to "flexible" the most."
The people of Xiye are proud of their bravery, so most of the troops sent by Xiye are real swords and guns, and they wipe out the enemy with absolute strength.
The same is true of Gao Mihao's usual way of using troops.
However, once this person is pushed into a predicament, he will find another "shortcut" and do whatever it takes...
Thinking about it, Guan Yubai's eyes became darker and darker, as dark as ink and night, so deep that Si Lin was shocked, and vaguely felt that this Gao Mihao seemed to have no meaning to Guan Yubai .
From the corner of Guan Yubai's mouth came a cold smile, the smile didn't reach his eyes, and he said again: "It was the new West Night King who conspired to get rid of my official family back then."
His tone was understated, but it made the surrounding air chill.
Not only Si Lin, but even Xiaosi's pupils shrank uncontrollably. In addition to shock, there was anger on the faces of the two of them, and there was even more hatred, especially Xiaosi. Seeing his murderous appearance, I am afraid that if it weren't for the official language, he would still be in vain. Here, he has already rushed to the Western Night Capital alone...
"Srustling..."
Gusts of autumn wind rustled the leaves, Guan Yubai raised his eyes to look at the swaying branches, half-closed his eyes, and the light in his eyes became sharp.
Outsiders thought that the revenge of the official army had already been avenged, that the enemy had subdued the law, and the official family had been rectified, but for Guan Yubai, the revenge was only half paid.
And the culprit who is far away in the west has not yet paid the price!
Of course he wants to seek revenge on Gao Mihao!
It's just that after the government was destroyed, he had no soldiers and no power, so he could only bear with it until now... He never thought that Xiao Yi saw his wish, and even decided to take a risky move to capture Xiye in order to fulfill his wish!
Whether it was for the past or the present, this battle with Xi Ye would definitely be the most important battle in his life.
You can only win, not lose!
Guan Yubai's expression was as firm as a rock, with a gentle smile hanging on his lips as always, and he said slowly: "Next, Gao Mihao should attack Han Huaijun..."
Just like nine years ago, they repeated the same old tricks, sowing dissension, planting blame and framing, intending to set Dayu's backyard on fire, and they Xiye took advantage of this to reap the power of the fisherman!
Only this time, Xiye will pay a heavy price for the country and the people!
Looking at Guan Yubai's calm expression, Si Lin's heart gradually settled down. He doesn't need to worry about Yubai. For Yubai, what he is doing now is what he has been wanting all these years, but he has been asking for it. Unbelievable thing... I just need to help him!
Suddenly, a loud and familiar eagle cry came from outside the courtyard, and the three of them followed the sound. Si Lin twitched his lips and said with a smile: "Yubai, your family Han Yu came back from a walk..."
Before he finished speaking, he got Xiao Si's contemptuous stare.
Si Lin rubbed his nose, raised his eyebrows and looked at Guan Yubai, how did he offend Xiao Si
A slight smile flashed in Guan Yubai's eyes, and he corrected, "It's not Han Yu."
Si Lin was startled, and raised his brow even higher. If it's not Han Yu, then who is it
He seemed to think of something, and looked at the sky again.
Immediately afterwards, there was another cry of eagles, which seemed slightly different from the first one.
This time, Xiao Si said with certainty: "It's Han Yu." But his face was still not very good-looking.
Si Lin soon had the answer, and saw two eagles, one gray and one white, circling and playing, flying towards this side together, looking like an eagle, according to him, it was almost like a mandarin duck!
Looking at Xiaosi's stinky face that seemed to be dripping ink, Si Lin tried not to laugh out loud.
Next, the cries of eagles echoed continuously above the yard. Xiaohui and Hanyu, who had reunited after a long absence, were overjoyed. Put the four thumbs and index fingers in a circle, put them in the mouth and make a crisp whistle.
The white eagle responded, and swooped down obediently, and landed on Xiao Si's left forearm, and then the gray eagle also came down like a shadow, flew around Xiao Si, and finally landed on the ground not far away. On a branch, it looked down at everyone from high above, with a hint of arrogance in its golden eagle eyes.
"Little Hui." Guan Yu waved at Gray Eagle with a broken smile. It flapped its wings twice, then flew down slowly, stopped at the edge of the chessboard, and then shook its wings again...
"Click, click..."
Seven or eight black and white pieces were scattered on the ground like drizzle, and the chess game on the chessboard became even more chaotic.
Xiaosi's forehead twitched, and he gave Gray Eagle an angry look, almost thinking that it was Si Lin's rescuer.
Guan Yubai didn't pay attention to the chess game, his eyes fell on the small bamboo tube tied to Gray Eagle's right paw, and he skillfully removed it.
Xiao Hui seemed to know that he had completed the task, and immediately flapped his wings and flew out of the pavilion, abducting Han Yu as well... The double eagles flew into the air again to play.
At the same time, Guan Yubai had already opened the small bamboo tube, and took out a strip of tissue paper from it.
This is a letter from Xiao Yi, and it is also a military newspaper.
The handwriting on the silk paper is still as strong and powerful as always, free and easy, and the words are like the person.
Guanyu Bai read it intently, and the first half of the letter was about military affairs... After talking about the business, Xiao Yi began to chatter about private matters, such as his family's brat...
Guan Yubai stared at the last section of the tissue paper, his lips could not help but evoke a joyful arc, his smile was shallow and warm.
Brother Yu will be called daddy so soon!
What a clever boy!
Thinking about it, Guan Yubai's smile deepened, and he suddenly whispered: "This battle must end before Brother Yu's birthday party!" .
At this moment, Si Lin seemed to see the radiant Guan Yubai again!
