In Xingyang City, the imperial envoy went to the Yamen.

Jia Cheng stood outside the ceremony gate and waited nervously, not daring to look inside.

Not long after, a lively and agile little girl ran out of it with small steps, followed by a big maid who nervously kept asking her to run slower. The little girl said it was okay, but her pace became faster and faster.

Quickly, after seeing Jia Cheng, a joyful and innocent smile appeared on his face, and he shouted excitedly: "Brother!"

"Slow down, be careful of falling!"

Jia Cheng stepped forward to catch her, and then said to the maid who was following her without looking away, "My little sister is naughty, thank you very much for your trouble."

The maid usually stayed in the back house and had never seen anyone except Pei Yue. At this moment, she suddenly met a young man about her own age. She immediately looked ashamed and lowered her head and said: "Young Master, you are welcome. Miss Jia is sensible and wise."

It’s cute, we all like it.”

Jia Cheng smiled heartily and said: "I am not a young master, I am just a soldier under the lordship. Girl, I would like to say a few words to my little sister. Is it convenient?"

"Of course it's convenient, please." After the maid finished speaking, she returned to the ceremony gate.

Jia Cheng held Jia Jia's hand and walked for a while along the tree-lined path nearby. He suppressed his excitement and said, "Little sister, your lordship has avenged my parents, my second sister, and my fellow villagers!"

Jia Jia is nine years old this year. The tragic scene she saw that day had a great impact on her. Thanks to Lin Shuyue's instructions, the maids in the imperial envoy's office were extra gentle and considerate to her, which gradually allowed her to recover.

She was cheerful in the past. However, there was always fear in her heart. When she heard Jia Cheng's words, she was stunned for a long time, and then she couldn't help but shed tears.

Jia Cheng took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears and said with a smile: "Don't cry, those bad guys are all dead and not a single one has escaped. I saw it with my own eyes!"

Jia Jia sniffed hard and said obediently: "I won't cry, brother, I miss my parents and second sister."

This simple sentence made Jia Cheng's heart hurt. He forced a smile and said: "In a few days, I will take you back to the village to see your parents and second sister, okay?"

"When can I go back?" Jia Jia asked cautiously. Although everyone here was very kind to her, she understood that this was not her home.

Jia Cheng touched her forehead and said: "Come on, your lordship is going to interrogate those bad guys today. It was these bad guys who brought in those Xiwu cavalry, so they are all our enemies. I am going to carry the flag for your lordship.

I want to see those people beheaded with my own eyes. Little sister, do you believe what I said?"

Jia Jia nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, I believe it!"

Jia Cheng smiled and said: "I will take you home after the war. Your Majesty will never treat his soldiers badly. Then I can buy more land, buy some cattle, and ask people to help us with farm work."

.I can study at home, or you can study with me."

Listening to the future he described, although Jia Jia didn't understand it very well, she also knew that it would be a great day, so she smiled and replied: "Okay!"

Her eyes are as curved as the moon in the sky.

After Jia Cheng sent her back to the maid, he immediately rushed to the temporary school ground to the west, where Pei Yue would order troops.

Although Jia Cheng did not record any heads in the Battle of Qishan Chong, he was able to carry the commander's flag on his shoulders from beginning to end. He followed Pei Yue wherever he fought, never falling behind. You must know that in

Before that, he was just an ordinary scholar. Even though his husband praised him for his excellent talent, he never thought that one day he would fight on the battlefield.

Pei Yue had a very good impression of him, and on the way back to Xingyang, he reminded him many times in person.

Jia Cheng did not get carried away because of this, but became more and more abiding by his duties, so even Wei Rui and others were very kind to him.

On the school field, the Zangfeng Guards officers were cleaning up their formation.

Jia Cheng hurriedly came to the back of the high platform, held the commander's flag in his hands, then climbed onto the high platform and stood behind Pei Yue.

He has learned to stand like a real soldier, especially after seeing the military appearance of the Tibetan Front Guards, he does not dare to damage the image of this iron army because of his negligence and laziness.

Excluding those who were killed in battle, those who were seriously injured and disabled, and those who stayed in Linqing County to recuperate, there were more than 500 soldiers standing solemnly on the school field today.

Under the high platform, Wei Rui, Fu Hongzhi and Chen Xianda stood at the front of the soldiers.

Shang Yu and Meng Longfu were seriously injured and could only recuperate in a quiet room for the time being.

Pei Yue said loudly: "Brothers, there are some things that I wanted to say when I arrived at Xingyang City that day and looked at the Beijing Palace. I didn't say it at the time because I didn't want the people to think we were too pretentious, and I didn't want you to think so.

There is a feeling of arrogance. Now I must tell you that everyone in our Zangfeng Guards from top to bottom is a good person, and there is not a single coward!"

The soldiers cheered warmly.

For so long, Pei Yue took the lead in every battle and shared the joys and sorrows with them. As for his salary, he never deducted a penny. Even Wei Rui and others felt very lucky to meet such a general. The only flaw in the ointment was Pei Yueji.

I couldn't praise them enough. When they heard Pei Yue's words, they were very excited. Especially after experiencing the gratitude of the people in Daoxian County and the onlookers outside Xingyang City, the general's praise seemed to be the last indispensable piece of the puzzle.

Jia Cheng stood behind, feeling equally excited. Because of his different position, he could also observe the expressions of everyone below.

At this moment, he suddenly understood why this army was so powerful and could stand firm in such a dangerous situation at Qishan Chong.

Pei Yue continued: "Currently, the military situation at the border is tense, but we have to stay in Xingyang. Why? Because the enemy is still hiding in the dark and we do not dig them out of the smelly ditch. We are sorry for those comrades who died in the battle, and we are also sorry.

I can't concentrate on it

Go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. You all know the detailed plan. I won’t repeat it. There is only one request. Today, even if the entire Xingyang City is turned upside down, we must find all the enemies and kill them all. I understand.

?”

"clear!"

Everyone roared in unison.

Pei Yue said solemnly: "I heard people say that a good man should die on the battlefield without being wrapped in horse leather. Since you and I are soldiers of the Liang Dynasty, we should fight the enemy on the battlefield and not be entangled in these conspiracies all the time. Today.

Then use the heads of those captives as bait, and use the blood sacrificial flags of the enemies hiding in the dark to cleanse the world and cleanse the world!"

"Kill them all, and then we go to Linqing to prepare our troops and fight to the death with the Xiwu people!"

"Wonderful victory! Wonderful victory! Wonderful victory!"

Jia Cheng shouted loudly along with the soldiers, and Pei Yue's calm back came into his eyes. This fifteen-year-old scholar suddenly understood the reason why the righteous soldiers in the history books worked so hard without caring about their own lives.

A scholar dies for a confidant.

Even though he is just a pawn now, Jia Cheng always firmly believes that a pawn can also be a soldier.

Pei Yue looked back at Jia Cheng and nodded slightly at him.

Jia Cheng straightened his body excitedly.
