"Why hasn't my sister arrived yet?" At this moment, Hao Jin's crisp voice suddenly sounded.
A strange smile suddenly appeared on the faces of Dugu and others. Dugu stepped forward and took Hao Jin from Haotian's arms. He said with a smile: "As expected, like father, like son.
But you kid, your second uncle is coming back too, why don’t you talk about it?”
"Dushuai, Jin'er is still young and can't blow the wind. Please be careful." Qiu Mu's voice sounded next to him. Dugu quickly covered Hao Jin's mink hat more tightly. Xue Sha also stretched out his hand and pulled it.
Hao Jin put a scarf on his neck to prevent the cold wind from blowing in.
Haotian and others came to greet the soldiers on the expedition. The two brothers Hao and Jin didn't have to accompany them, but Hao Jin clamored to see Ying Ji'er, and Hao An was Hao Jin's follower. Xin Jiao and others couldn't resist their brothers, so they had to let them go.
Two people accompanied him.
Hao Jin looked away and said proudly: "Sister Ji'er said she would bring me something."
Xin said with a bitter face: "Hao Jin, doesn't uncle bring you something every time he comes back?"
"What you bring is not fun at all, and it's not as good-looking as Sister Ji'er." Hao Jin said without giving any face.
Chu Xiangcheng chuckled: "You kid, you are really in the same blood as my lord, your temperament is exactly the same."
While he was talking, Feng Jing's cavalry had arrived at the city gate. Seeing Haotian personally leading a group of military and political leaders to greet him at the door, Feng Jing was immediately moved and quickly led the generals at the command level to come to pay homage. And his subordinates
The soldiers were stationed in the military camps that had been prepared outside the city. Except for the imperial army, no other troops were allowed to enter the capital. This was the practice of all dynasties. Therefore, the garrison of the Holy Capital of Tiandu has always been Haotian's Huben Army.
Only after all the Huben troops were mobilized, in order to stabilize the situation in Tiandu Shengjing, Chu Xiangcheng, who was in charge, mobilized other troops to garrison.
"Lord!" Bian Zhongxing and Fengjing took a step forward and half-knelt. The other military commanders, including Wu Xiaolangjun, all knelt on their knees.
Haotian quickly lifted Fengjing up and motioned for everyone to get up. He patted Fengjing on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Well, looking at your appearance, I know that you have been through hardships. Thank you for your hard work. Haha, I Hao some time ago
Tian is also fighting in Haixi. He knows very well how cold and unbearable the winter outside the Great Wall is, so he also understands your achievements. And Commander Bian, we in Hetao have been able to conquer the south and north in recent years, thanks to you sitting in Yanzhou
ah."
"This is what it should be. As a soldier of the empire, you should immediately guard the border and protect your country. However, those ordinary soldiers are the ones who really work hard." Feng Jing said quickly.
Bian Zhongxing tried his best to put on a smile on his old-fashioned face, but said nothing.
Haotian nodded: "Master Chu has already prepared the reward package, and I'm waiting for you to read it after Feng Shuai comes back." Turning around, he looked at the tall and burly Tang Jian and the resolute-looking Guan Zhichun and others.
Haotian couldn't help laughing: "Haha, our fifth son has finally grown up, don't you think so?"
"Meet the adoptive father." The five people said in unison.
Haotian waved his hand nonchalantly, and just as he was about to speak, Hao Jin already shouted out: "Sister, sister, I'm here to pick you up."
Dugu quickly stepped forward and handed Hao Jin in his arms to Ying Ji'er. Haotian had a bitter look on his face, looking at this bad guy who interrupted him to express his pride, and finally shook his head and said nothing.
Regardless of the fact that Ying Ji'er's armor was cold and not warm at all, Hao Jin hugged Ying Ji'er's neck and said, "Sister, I came here to pick you up specially."
Ying Ji'er's face also bloomed with a flower-like smile, she kissed Hao Jin's forehead gently, and said with a smile: "Sister knows." Although there are not a thousand words, and one big and one small, they are only two.
The warm feelings between people made even Xue Sha and others a little moved.
Hao Jin tilted his head, and then noticed that Bian Zhongxing, Feng Jing and others were standing beside him. He quickly and respectfully called his foster father and second uncle, and then finished calling Wu Xiaolang Jun. Feng Jing and others
A smile suddenly appeared on his face, and Haotian also smiled with satisfaction. It seemed that Xin Jiao's discipline was indeed very good, at least he was not embarrassed in terms of politeness.
After Hao Jin called his brothers and sisters, he suddenly felt something was wrong and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Hao An, where are you?"
Xin Jiao hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Hao Jin, your brother has just fallen asleep." Hao An held her in her arms, but Hao An's energy was obviously not as good as his brother's, and Xin Jiao's arms were too tight
It was so warm that I fell asleep directly.
Hao Jin signaled Ying Ji'er to take a step forward with him in his arms, stretched out his small hand and touched Hao An's face twice in Xin Jiao's arms.
Hao'an was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly woken up by someone. He rubbed his eyes in discomfort and burst into tears.
Haotian patted his head with a headache. If he had known that it would be so troublesome to bring his brothers out, he should have kept them in the palace. As soon as Xin Jiao and others heard Hao'an's cries, they all panicked.
"Don't cry!" Hao Jin shouted angrily.
Hao'an was crying hard when he suddenly heard his brother's words. His crying suddenly stopped. The tears on his face were still there. A pair of black and white eyes looked at Hao Jin pitifully, with an expression that was indescribably cute.
Hao Jin raised his neck domineeringly: "My foster father and sister are back."
Hao'an understood and quickly called out obediently: "Father, second uncle, eldest brother, second brother, third sister, fourth brother, fifth sister."
When everyone saw this, they couldn't help laughing, even Luo Xiang and Chu Xiangcheng.
At this time, the curtain of the carriage was also opened, but two people stepped out. One of them had a big belly and was naturally Desire.
Dugu punched Fengjing and said with a smile: "Fengshuai is so awesome. He didn't stay in Hetao for two days, and he really got big for you."
Daisy'er was walking towards everyone. When she heard this, her feet slipped. If the woman next to her hadn't been quick-eyed and quick-handed, she might have fallen down. She blushed and glared at Dugu fiercely, and then honestly
stood behind Feng Jing.
Feng Jing also looked a little embarrassed. He looked at the group of colleagues with obscene smiles around him, and finally sighed and turned his head to the side.
"My servant pays my respects to the young master." The woman next to Daisyer walked straight to Haotian and said respectfully. Seeing that the letter was also behind her, she quickly saluted and said: "My servant pays her respects to the third young master."
Haotian waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, we are all a family, there is no need to be so formal. Shuqin, you are now a respectful wife, no longer the little maid you were before, don't act like a slave.
The gift.”
"Yes, young master." Shuqin nodded.
Since Hao Quan left, Shuqin is the only one in the world who calls Haotian Young Master.
Shuqin is the maid of Tianyi and the only maid of Tianyi. When Haotian was nine years old, Hao Fei, the county magistrate, accidentally rescued the orphan girl whose family had died during a case. Hao Fei couldn't bear it
, so he brought her back to his home and educated and raised her with Haotian and others. Tianyi liked this little girl who was three years younger than him very much and took good care of her. Later, Tianyi naturally became Tianyi's maid. Therefore, these
Shuqin has been calling Master Haotian for many years, which is the habit he developed at that time.
God's will knew that Shuqin had always liked Fengjing, and Fengjing was also very affectionate towards Shuqin, so when Fengjing got married, God's will specially made Shuqin wear the phoenix crown and rosy robe, and became Fengjing's equal wife.
Shuqin was pregnant at that time, and God had joked that he would name Fengjing and Shuqin's first child Fengtian. Unfortunately, God's will died in Dingzhou in the battle, and Shuqin heard the news and vomited blood, which eventually led to the miscarriage of the child.
Returning to the Jingbei Palace, there was naturally a lively family banquet. However, Henghui and others were a little frightened, fearing that Xian Lianchen, Qiu Mu and others would show off their skills in the kitchen, which would be a big deal to their stomachs.
They were about to suffer. Fortunately, a few people were still conscious and sat beside Haotian. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Haotian likes to be lively, especially banquets like this. The generals below did not take it seriously. They have followed Haotian for many years and naturally know what kind of temper Haotian is. Everyone is laughing or spitting, and the whole hall is very lively.
.
Dai Si'er and Shu Qin naturally sat at the same table with Xian Lianchen and the other five people. Their table was full of women, plus He Yu, Ying Ji'er Chu Yueying and others. Although it was not as lively as other tables, it was
The atmosphere is also very harmonious.
Haotian was sitting with Feng Jing and others, drinking happily. Haotian liked drinking very much, but Xin Jiao and others were worried about his health and kept him from drinking. It was a rare opportunity for Haotian to drink.
Willing to let it go.
Since the capture of Tiandu Shengjing, the old brothers who conquered the world together have been together less and more apart. Except for Luo Xiang and Xuanji who often followed Haotian, they both led the troops in the bloody killing of Dugu and Feng Jingxin. As for Bian Zhongxing, these
For many years, we have been staying at the base of the Hetao. If it weren't for the fact that this was the first Spring Festival celebration after the Hetao went south, and the situation outside the Great Wall was relatively stable, Bian Chongxing would not have dared to go south.
"You don't know. At that time, I led 20,000 cavalry and fought all the way to the vicinity of Qing Prairie, the capital of the Qiu Ming Tribe. I could even see the market in Qing Prairie clearly..." Heng Hui said with spittle.
Zong Buhua slapped the table: "Bah, you think I've never been to Qingcaiyuan? Although the city wall of Qingcaiyuan is low, you can't see the market from the outside."
Henghui's face turned red and he retorted: "You know what the hell, their door was open at that time. I'm not blind, so I can naturally see."
Li Xiao quickly said: "Stop, stop, listen to this guy Henghui continue talking!"
"The guy from Memphis was leading 150,000 Tyumen elites to fight against the general in the southern region. He didn't expect that our partial army would actually go all the way into their home base. You also know that the strength of the entire Tyumen nation is only 300,000 troops.
, Moreover, the army was relatively scattered at that time, and we suffered a lot of losses along the way, so the commander-in-chief initially estimated that there should not be many troops in the grassland."
After wiping Hengfei's saliva, Henghui took a deep sip of wine and said loudly: "Who knew that bad old man Tielinghan had been prepared in advance, and there were actually 50,000 cavalry in the green grassland. You didn't know what the situation was at that time.
How dangerous it is. After the opponent attracted us to the city gate of Qing Prairie, tens of thousands of cavalry suddenly rushed out from both sides, preparing to outflank our flanks and swallow us all up. Hey, under such circumstances, I decided to
He led his soldiers to charge out from the flank, before they could recover, and then suddenly killed them back. In the end, he not only severely defeated the opponent, but also killed the Qiuming general Wu Tiandong."
"Didn't he run away in embarrassment later?" Ciliu Zengdan said with a smile.
Henghui's face turned red: "Nonsense, in that case, even an idiot would definitely run away."
Zhang Xinxin raised his voice and said: "Uncle, I thought you Henghui was so great, but it was nothing more than that. Haha, we followed the commander across Haixi. In four months, we annihilated more than 150,000 soldiers of the other side and beheaded one
More than a million people were killed, and the southwestern part of Hainan was reduced to ruins. Later, Fort Lidde was captured and the country was destroyed."
Lan Gaoping was not happy anymore, holding the wine bowl and said: "You are just killing ordinary people, and you have no fighting power at all. Besides, if the commander-in-chief hadn't ordered us to kill only the able-bodied young people, our results would have been richer than yours."
Liu Zhiya retorted: "What's wrong with killing ordinary people? Do you think these people are easy to deal with? If it is really so easy to deal with, then the four legions in the southern theater should have called it a day."
"That's their waste." Lan Gaoping said disdainfully.
This sentence immediately spoke to everyone's minds, and everyone picked up their wine bowls and turned their heads upside down.
It's no wonder that Lan Gaoping and others look down on the four legions of Dingnan, Yellow Turban, Poli and Zhulu. Cheng Guochi and Zhang Keliang are responsible for wiping out the remaining forces of Jinhua, while Li Xiaomo and Chu Lianfeng deal with the four southern Yunnan tribes. It's a pity that several
Months have passed, but the place has not been completely razed. Such efficiency has naturally aroused the contempt of the Loop.
Jiang Chenzhou rushed over from another table and said loudly: "My lord's attitude on this matter is quite clear. As long as the four southern Yunnan tribes and the Golden Flower Monkey survive, they will continue to stay there and never want to return to their own country."
Station. Damn it, without the supervision of our Loop, they will become passive and slow down their work one by one."
Bashan slapped the table: "It's just that these people are not good at fighting, but they are good at eating. Do you think they, these bastards, stayed there intentionally and prepared for evil intentions?"
Xuanji came over at the right time and gave Bashan a fierce look: "We are all colleagues in the empire. We will keep our heads down and not look up when we see each other in the future. Let's keep our mouths open. Besides, it's not like they didn't gain anything at all. Li Xiaomo and Cheng Guo
Chi and the others have promised that they will be able to completely defeat the remaining enemies within a month at most."
After saying that, Xuanji picked up the wine glass and walked over to Haotian. Bian Zhongxing went south for the first time, and Feng Jing had just returned. Haotian naturally wanted to take care of the two of them, and people of the same level as Xuesha Luo Xiang were naturally present together.
As soon as the mystery was gone, Bashan and others naturally became lively again. Looking at the two tables at the top, Jiang Chenzhou and others simply moved the six or seven tables below closer to each other, so that chatting and drinking would be more exciting.
"I always feel that the top beam of our Hetao is out of alignment and the bottom beam is crooked. The generals we have will lead the same troops." He Yu shook his head as he looked at the fifty or sixty commander-level generals below who all looked red in the face.
Xin Jiao and others all smiled slightly. He Yu was the elder of everyone, so she was naturally qualified to say this. However, since they had different statuses, they could only smile and remain silent.
Although Haotian also saw everyone's actions, he didn't take it seriously. For Haotian, just do whatever you want.
The Legion of Honor and Li Xiaomo's Po Li Legion had fought side by side several times. Seeing how much people despised the Po Li Legion, Guan Mo couldn't help but said: "Actually, the Po Li Legion's combat effectiveness is pretty good, and so does Li Xiaomo.
He is a talented man who is absolutely top-notch whether he is marching or arranging troops. But the generals under him are all unruly and have eyes on their foreheads, so they are always unable to carry out his intentions."
Li Xiao heard this and said objectively: "What the old man said is right. But those Qinchuan generals don't even think about what they have to be proud of. With the strength of the Li family at the beginning, they were easily wiped out by us, let alone now.
?But it is undeniable that Li Xiaomo is indeed a talented person. If he had not personally been in charge of southern Yunnan, it would be difficult to wipe out the four ethnic groups in southern Yunnan even if he threw 108,000 people in."
Although everyone was red-faced after drinking, they were all experienced veterans after all. After thinking about it one by one, they all felt that what Li Xiao said made sense.
For thousands of years, the ethnic minorities in southern Yunnan have relied on the geographical advantage to rebel repeatedly. All dynasties have invested a lot of effort in preparing to completely wipe out the place. However, they always made great progress when they first used troops, and then fell into trouble.
There was a stalemate, and the troops had to withdraw in the end. Although the four tribes in southern Yunnan suffered heavy losses at the beginning, the Tan tribe alone had a total strength of 100,000. Li Xiaomo was able to rely on the 150,000 soldiers in his hands, plus the Mushan tribe in the north.
The 50,000 soldiers gradually encroached on the four ethnic groups in southern Yunnan. It is obvious that there are indeed two brushes.
Guan Ying also drank and blushed. The Soul-Eating Commander, who was usually invisible, supported the table with his remaining right arm, shook his head and said: "Although there have been many wars south of the river, their battles were bloody.
The extent and cruelty are far from comparable to those north of the river. Therefore, when it comes to the combat effectiveness of each legion, the four newly surrendered legions must not be able to compare with us. To be honest, leaving aside the Feng Wu legion, Li
The military quality of Xiao's Red Snake Legion is definitely better than any of them."
Li Xiao was furious and said: "You look down on our Red Snake Legion so much?"
Everyone here is an old comrade who came from Qingyun. Even if the relationship was not very good at the beginning, from the small Qingyun to the entire mainland of China, from a thousand soldiers at the beginning to more than 60 people now, it is natural that the friendship is not good.
. Therefore, although Li Xiao's voice was loud, there was not much real anger in his tone.
