Yuwen Zhiji is a typical playboy. He is not afraid of his father Yuwenshu, but he is a little frightened by Lai Huer, who is known as a cold-faced iron gun general. He can only snort coldly, turn around and ask: "What is your name?"
?”
Hua Yun cupped his fists and replied: "Little man Hua Yun, flowers of flowers, clouds of clouds."
"Waiting here." Yuwen Zhiji shook his sleeves and entered the tent.
After a while, an eunuch came out of the tent and shouted in a high voice: "Xuanhuayun comes to visit!"
Hua Yun did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly straightened his clothes and armor, straightened his helmet, and followed the inner prisoner step by step into the big tent.
When Yang Guang visited Yulin in the north last year, Yu Wenkai built a large tent that could seat a thousand people, which frightened the Qimin Khan of the Eastern Turks and others who came to see him. This large tent was only temporarily built during the march. Of course,
It is impossible to accommodate a thousand people, but it is still very spectacular. It can easily accommodate two to three hundred people, and the decoration is extremely luxurious.
Hua Yun only glanced at it, quickly lowered his head, crossed his hands and said: "Hua Yun, the little man, see the emperor, long live, long live, long live!"
Under the system of the Sui Dynasty, ministers did not need to kneel down and worship the emperor when they saw him, not to mention that Hua Yun was wearing armor, so it was not disrespectful.
When Yang Guang first saw Hua Yun, his expression shrank. Ever since he was assassinated in Qiyin Yuan, Yang Guang would be extra vigilant whenever he saw someone over eight feet tall. However, he soon discovered that Hua Yun was tall.
Thin, far different from the assassin, his expression softened, he waved his hand and said: "Without courtesy. Tell me, what's going on with the snow sledge?"
Hua Yun quietly raised his head and glanced at Yang Guang. Seeing his handsome appearance and gentle expression, he couldn't help but feel bold and applied the principles Liu Ziqiu told him one by one.
Hua Yun himself had not understood many of these things, but with Yang Guang's intelligence, he nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "Interesting. Yu Wenkai, try what he said and see if you can make it."
Here are some snow sledges that are not easily damaged."
Yu Wenkai bowed and said: "I obey your order."
Yuwen Zhiji felt slightly unhappy when he saw that there was nothing going on without him. He shouted at Huayun and said, "Get out of here if you don't want to!"
"Wait a minute!" Yang Guang was in high spirits, waved his hand vigorously, and said, "I have always made clear rewards and punishments. If you have done a good job with your snow sledge, I will reward you as a general."
He was promoted from gang leader to general at once, and he didn't know how many levels he had jumped through. Hua Yun couldn't believe his ears. He was stunned on the spot and even forgot to thank him.
At this time, someone in the tent had stood up, but it was Yang Xuangan. He raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, this man is young, has never led an army, and has never fought in a war. To be promoted to general like this is hard to convince."
Everyone."
Yu Wenshu sneered and said: "General Yang, Jun Wuxi, do you want the emperor to take back his life?"
The positions of generals are limited, and each guard only has four generals named Hu Ben and six generals Huya. These generals who can directly command the army have always been the targets of Yang Xuangan's efforts to win over. After Han Shi'e resigned, Yang Xuangan had few
He got a position as a general, and was still taken over by the Yuwen family. And Hua Yun was brought in by Yuwen Zhiji. Yang Xuan felt that he had some relationship with the Yuwen family, so naturally he didn't want him to take the position of a general.
Of course Yuwen Shu knew that Hua Yun had nothing to do with his Yuwen family, but since Yang Xuangan objected, he might as well sell Hua Yun a favor.
"What both generals said makes sense." Another man stood up, stroking the three strands of gray beard under his chin, and said with a smile, "The emperor only said that he would be made a general, but he didn't say that he was a general.
What's wrong with a general? Let him be an eagle-yang general who doesn't lead the troops in war."
Yang Guang laughed and said: "Changsun Sheng still knows my intentions. Yes, I just want to reward him as a general of Yingyang Mansion."
It turned out that this man was Changsun Wuji's father, General Sun Sheng of Youxiao Guard.
Hua Yun was a little disappointed. He left home this time, thinking only of making achievements on the battlefield. Although he could change his position from a soldier to an officer, his promotion was somewhat inexplicable, and he was still the Ying Yanglang general who could not lead the army in battle. Even if he was allowed to
It would be much better to be a captain or even a brigade commander.
Even so, Yang Xuangan refused to give up and said again: "I am reporting to the Emperor that there is no vacancy for General Yingyang!"
Yang Guang's face darkened, and he turned to look at Chang Sun Sheng, but Chang Sun Sheng lowered his head and said nothing. His fifty-eight years were not in vain. He could just stop talking and stop offending Yang.
Home people.
But Yu Wenshu laughed and said: "General Yang is really forgetful. Didn't your fifth son, Yang Wanxiang, just be promoted to General Huben? If I remember correctly, the position of General Yu Hangying and Yang Mansion should still be vacant."
After Yang Wanxiang was promoted to General Hu Ben, Yang Xuangan had been working to let the seventh-oldest Yang Jishan, who had not served as an official, take the position of General Yu Hangying Yangfu. However, Yang Jishan was still young, so he was stuck with Duan Wenzhen, Minister of the Ministry of War. Yang Xuangan knew
Duan Wenzhen was an upright man and was not easy to bribe. He was planning to follow the path of his two sons after the New Year, but he did not expect that Yang Guang would order the western expedition so quickly, so it was delayed.
The position of Yu Hangyingyang's general is very important to the Yang family. Yang Xuangan wanted to persuade him again, but Yang Guang waved his hand and said: "Password, Hua Yun is appointed as Yu Hangyingyang's general, and he will take office immediately!"
Yu Wenshu was secretly proud, stroking his beard and smiling: "Boy, you still don't thank me."
Hua Yun finally came to his senses and hurriedly bowed and said, "I thank you, Lord, for your kindness."
…
In Luoyang City, the people were still immersed in the joy of the New Year, but Li Jing's family had already packed their bags, quietly left the east gate, and headed to the canal dock more than ten miles away.
That day Liu Ziqiu invited them to Changshan Village in Yuhang. Li Jing was also a little moved and asked Zhang Chuchen again. Zhang Chuchen also felt that it was very boring for Li Jing to stay as a small official in Luoyang City, so it would be better to go out for a walk.
She also missed Gao Xiuer a little. She naturally agreed to Li Jing's proposal.
Li Jing was just a junior member of the Ministry of War. A resignation letter was sent to the Ministry of War. It did not need to go through Duan Wenzhen, the Minister. The doctor of the headquarters approved it directly. Although the official position of Yuanwailang was humble, he still received a salary from the imperial court. The doctor of the Ministry of Drives could just use it.
Do it as a favor and recommend your relatives and friends to Shangguan in the future.
However, in order to avoid attracting attention, Li Jing did not leave immediately. He waited until Yang Guang Yujia personally marched and the troops left the camp to the west, then he took his family south.
Not far away, several horses came galloping behind him, but it was Han Shi'er who got the news and came to see him off.
Li Jing joked: "Shi'e, if you don't recuperate at home, what are you going to do out here?"
"Cousin, it's not like you don't know my situation." Han Shi'er shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "Since Han handed over his military power, the Yang brothers have not been very friendly to Han. Han is unarmed and if he wants to rescue him
Su Su is afraid it will be even more difficult. Thinking about it now, the decision made at that time was too hasty."
Li Jing said seriously: "It's a blessing in disguise. Shi'e, I believe in Ziqiu's vision. Yang Xuangan can't be a useful weapon. Maybe it's a good thing for you to distance yourself from them."
Han Shi'er frowned and said, "What does my cousin mean?"
Li Jing said in a deep voice: "Just wait and see what happens! It would be better if we can rescue Miss Hou during the chaos, otherwise we must not act rashly!"
…
In the military camp, Liu Yu led the soldiers to see Hua Yun off. Liu Ziqiu took his horse, handed the reins to Hua Yun's hand, and said, "Brother, remember, Liu Ziqiu is the leader of Changshan Village in Yanguan County.
XX’s hometown has the opportunity to take good care of Liu’s family.”
Hua Yun's eyes were wet, and he choked with sobs: "Second brother, this position should be yours. How about I tell the emperor again..."
But Liu Yu stared and said, "You are so ridiculous. Do you want to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor?"
Liu Ziqiu chuckled and said: "You and I are brothers. Whatever is yours and mine, what's yours is mine, and what's mine is yours. It's getting late, so hurry up and leave!"
Hua Yun was overjoyed: "Second brother, this is true!"
Liu Ziqiu said without thinking: "Brother, can I still lie to you?"
Hua Yun got on his horse, cupped his hands and said, "Second brother, the battle is over, you must go to Yuhang to see me."
Liu Ziqiu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, that's Liu's hometown, and Liu will definitely go back."
Hua Yun rode away, and the convoy began to regroup and head west. Liu Yu asked puzzledly: "Liu Ziqiu, why do you want to give your credit to Hua Yun?"
Liu Ziqiu smiled and said: "On the battlefield, he has no eyesight, and he is just a child."
Liu Yu nodded. He was also a father, so he naturally believed Liu Ziqiu's words.
…
But Hua Yun said goodbye to everyone, rode alone, and rode eastward. As a rule, at his level, he could be equipped with personal soldiers. Liu Yu also asked him to pick a few people from the regiment to follow. But Hua Yun knew that Liu Ziqiu would definitely not be willing.
He wanted to be his personal soldier, and the rest of the regiment had become familiar with Liu Ziqiu, and they could take care of each other on the battlefield, so he simply didn't want any personal soldiers.
On the official road, you can still see many convoys transporting grain and grass, all of which are behind their group. After traveling for more than fifty miles, another convoy came not far away, and from time to time, there was a convoy coming from the team.
Sounds of beating and scolding.
I saw Yu Wenjing riding his horse back and forth in the convoy, raising his whip from time to time, urging the soldiers to move quickly. Many soldiers were beaten to pieces and bruised, their cotton clothes were soaked with blood, and they were quickly frozen into ice pimples.
Hua Yun couldn't see it, so he rode forward and said with cupped hands: "General Yuwen, the soldiers are all made of flesh and blood, how can they withstand such a severe beating? I hope the general will show mercy!"
Yu Wenjing glanced at Hua Yun and saw that he was just an ordinary soldier in his armor. He couldn't help but sneered: "Who are you? How dare you interfere in my general's affairs. I will first punish you for being disrespectful! Come here."
, Yumou will take him down!"
All the soldiers he brought over from the Youxiao Guards had some martial arts skills. After receiving the order, they immediately pounced on him like wolves and tigers.
Hua Yun shouted angrily: "Bold, I am the general of Yingyang Mansion, who dares to be rude!"
Several soldiers heard that he was a general and did not dare to move.
But Yu Wenjing laughed and said: "Even if you are really a general of the Yingyang Mansion, I will definitely catch you! You guys, what are you doing standing there in a daze, why don't you take action quickly! If you catch him, I will whip him thirty times.
