After seeing Zhuo Han's ugly appearance, courage subsided from Wu Ying's body like a tide, and the pain caused by those arrows suddenly burst out.
He groaned and spit at Zhuo Han, "Wild dog! Your whole family will become slaves!"
Zhuo Han smiled and said: "No, my family will not be affected."
Wu Da came with a small folding stool. After opening it, he said attentively: "Master, sit down."
Yang Xuan sat down. The small stool was a little unstable on the ground and he had to move it a few times.
He sat comfortably and asked: "Withdrawing from the battle, leading to a great defeat, and even surrendering the enemy troops, is this not enough to be exiled?"
In the Tang Dynasty, most of the family members of such generals were men who were slaves, while women would work in the Jiaofangsi.
Zhuo Han didn't dare to hide it, "The villain's benefactor will cover it up."
"You were defeated and he covered it up...why?"
"Just because the villain has been promoted all the way because of his efforts, if the villain is unlucky, he will also be criticized."
"Criticism!"
"Yes." Zhuo Han said, "There are many gentlemen in Zhou Dynasty."
Yang Xuan suddenly realized, "Yes, a gentleman is like jade, so naturally he cannot be stained with flaws."
Han Ji came over and said, "For this reason, they can confuse right and wrong."
"Such a gentleman is more terrifying than a villain!" said the old thief: "It is unnatural that the Southern Zhou Dynasty should not be destroyed!"
Yang Xuan patted Zhuo Han on the shoulder, "This is how the world is. Those who shout that they are brave are mostly cowardly; those who shout that they are knowledgeable and rich are probably tinkering with half a bottle of water; those who shout that they have friends all over the world,
Most of them are fair-weather friends, with empty hearts..."
"Your Majesty." Zhuo Han just wanted to save his life at this moment.
Yang Xuan concluded with emotion: "The more something is lacking, the more this person likes to flaunt something. No exception!"
"Make you wise!"
Zhuo Han's flattery is very straightforward.
Yang Xuan looked at him, suddenly thought of something, and asked: "Do you want to be my dog?"
This is humiliating!
Han Ji and others looked at Zhuo Han.
Zhuo Han almost said without hesitation: "Having a dog as a master is a blessing brought by the villain in his previous life!"
Yang Xuan groaned and gently touched the top of his head, "Come on, call me twice."
…
Summer in the south is very difficult, especially at night.
But for people like Fang Chong, summer troubles are limited to when they go out.
In the check-in room, there are several ice basins placed, which makes it very comfortable to cool down. At night, ice is also indispensable in the bedroom, so you can't feel the heat at all.
After breakfast, the cicadas outside began to chirp.
Heat follows.
"Why!"
After walking out of the temporary camp, Fang Chong wiped his sweat and said, "It's so hot today! It's painful to go out."
The entourage smiled and said: "Ms. sir, someone has made some kind of sedan in Bianjing now. I sit on it when I go out. Four people lift it up, hey! It's so comfortable when it's swaying around. You can also put ice in the sedan to keep it cool all the way!"
Fang Chong couldn't help but feel moved.
"Ask later."
All the way to Zhou Yamen, Peng Jing had already arrived.
"Has the battle report arrived yet?" Fang Chong asked.
Peng Jing shook his head, "Turn back and urge me. By the way, there are people from Bianjing."
"Asking about the battle situation?"
"Um!"
The person coming from Bianjing is Xie Yingong.
The emperor's chamberlains all came, which shows that they attach great importance to this battle.
When we arrived at the lobby, Xie Yingong was drinking tea.
"My two gentlemen, may there be a battle report today?"
Peng Jing nodded, "Based on the enemy's march, this battle has already started for several days, and the battle report should be here."
Xie Yingong is a son of a military general. He has heard about martial arts since he was a child and is no stranger to martial arts. The emperor sent him here, and his attitude was very obvious.
I am worried that I will be deceived by you!
Xie Yingong smiled and said: "That's good. By the way, Prime Minister Peng, what is the constitution of the Tang Army?"
It is up to Bai Xiong to analyze this matter, but Bai Xiong is currently patrolling the city defenses, deploying troops, and is busy non-stop.
Peng Jing said: "The Tang army, with Yang Xuan as the vanguard, is approaching Yongzhou. Later, Zhang Huan led more than 50,000 troops, and the army was huge..."
Xie Yingong frowned slightly, "What about us! Don't we have a charter?"
Although the authority of the Southern Zhou Emperor was weak among the Three Kingdoms, and important ministers could even spit on him, he still had to give him face.
Fang Chong explained: "Our army moves forward to intercept the enemy's forward..."
"Just intercept?"
Xie Yingong felt that this arrangement was too mediocre.
Fang Chong said with a smile: "Front interception, five thousand cavalry were deployed on the flanks. Just when Yang Xuan was fighting in the front, the five thousand cavalry suddenly came out... and gave him a fatal blow!"
Xie Yingong asked carefully: "Is it safe?"
Fang Chong nodded, "The person blocking us from the front is the veteran Wu Ying. This person is steady in his military use and not lacking in bravery. On the flank is Zhuo Han. This person is quite sharp in his military use. If he sharpens his skills, I think he will be no worse than the so-called famous general of the Tang Dynasty."
"
Xie Yingong asked: "Is that Yang Xuan that Prime Minister Fang is talking about?"
Fang Chong nodded, "Since this battle, Yang Xuan has played very sharply on the left, and Lei Qi is no match, which has greatly boosted the morale of the Tang army. This arrangement is to prepare for a head-on blow and dampen the morale of the Tang army.
.”
Xie Yingong thought about it carefully and nodded, "Sure!"
Fang Chong said with a smile: "Please report back to Your Majesty. I will be waiting for you. This battle will be worry-free!"
Xie Yingong stood up and said, "That's good. We'll go back right now. If the battle report comes, please send it to Bianjing as soon as possible. Your Majesty is eagerly awaiting it."
"yes."
Peng and Jing stood up and made a farewell gesture.
This is also a manifestation of respect for the emperor.
Xie Yingong walked out of the lobby, looked up at the sky, "It's really hot!"
The sound of horse hooves came quickly and stopped outside.
"Take a shower when you get back." Xie Yingong wiped his sweat, "Moreover, get some ice. Hey! This weather is so evil!"
A sergeant rushed in.
"Stop!" shouted the waiter in front.
This was Xie Yingong. When walking in the palace, ordinary concubines would have to avoid him and make gestures when they saw him.
The sergeant stopped and raised his head.
"Battle report!"
Xie Yingong stopped and said, "Say!"
"In the battle to intercept the enemy's forward, our army was defeated. Commander Wu died in the battle, and Zhuo Han was captured."
There were footsteps behind me.
Peng Jing and Fang Chong walked out in a hurry.
Xie Yingong turned around slowly.
"Is this appropriate?"
…
"My lord, please report your victory to the vanguard."
The battle report reached Zhang Huan. After reading the battle, he said happily and gloomily: "I saw the right person!"
Why didn't he win over such a great talent in the first place?
Generals like to train new people. This is a different kind of inheritance relationship, just like a literati teaching his disciples. Once the new people become talented, they will be your resources in the future.
My resources...what a pity!
Zhou Zun stroked his beard and smiled.
The battle report spread throughout the army.
Shi Zhongtang and Chunyu were together. Chunyu said angrily: "If the general goes away, he will definitely be able to defeat the enemy."
"Don't say anything like that." Shi Zhongtang shook his head, "The enemy intercepted us head-on with more than 10,000 infantry, making a full posture. There were also 5,000 cavalry waiting for the opportunity.
If it were me, I would definitely make those three thousand cavalry join the battle. But he held the cavalry still.
Damn it! This man...how did he know that the enemy was ambushing him?"
This incident made Shi Zhongtang a little depressed, and even Zhang Huan smiled and said that it was because of the help of ghosts and gods.
Otherwise, how can we explain Yang Xuan's inexplicable inability to move the cavalryman?
After setting up camp and having dinner, Zhou Zun took a walk in the camp under the setting sun and inspected the camp.
"I've met Zhou Changshi!"
When a group of sergeants saw him, they saluted respectfully.
Chang Mu whispered: "Lang Jun, have you ever noticed that these soldiers respect Lang Jun a lot?"
Zhou Zun nodded, "The army has no good impression of the powerful, and only respects those who are capable. Zitai's battle was like a divine help, which greatly boosted morale. These soldiers respected him, they loved him as much as they loved him, and they also respected me more."
Chang Mu smiled, "Mr. Lang, have you ever thought that one day you would be respected by others because of your uncle?"
The relationship between him and Zhou Zun is not an ordinary guest and host, so he can make such jokes.
Zhou Zun looked ahead with his hands behind his hands.
a long time.
said:
"Back then! I was just wondering why Aning was so blind that he found such a man!"
…
The vanguard arrived at Yongzhou and immediately encountered a large enemy force.
Yang Xuan decisively led his army to retreat ten miles and set up camp.
"Lang Jun, my injury is healed."
Wang Laoer took the initiative to ask Ying to lead the scouts to investigate.
"Let me see."
Yang Xuan motioned for him to open his hand.
Wang Laoer opened his hand, and the cut on his palm was already scarred.
This healing speed made Yang Xuan look a little sideways.
"This kid is so powerful!" Tu Chang was very proud.
"Go for it!"
Wang Laoer set off happily.
"Be careful!" Tu Shang shouted after him.
"knew."
Han Ji walked behind Yang Xuan and said, "Such an ancestral relationship is enviable."
Yang Xuan didn't turn around, "The battle formation is too cold, a little more warmth wouldn't be a bad thing."
"Yes!" Han Ji walked up, "The people around Lang Jun are a little distracted."
"You want to say they're forming a clique?"
"Yes. Lang Jun's foundation is not deep enough. His subordinates must form a synergy."
"You are wrong about this."
Han Ji smiled and said, "Please give me some advice."
"People are self-interested, and it is instinct to seek a sense of security when they form a group. There is a saying that an official is ruthless and must have a few helpers.
Officials are like this, and everyone is like this. I never thought they could be so close, Old Han."
"exist!"
Yang Xuan looked at him, "As I said before, people are all self-interested and have their own small calculations. Selflessness only refers to certain situations, not all the time. If people are selfless, what is it?"
Han Ji: "..."
"Kuchiki!" Yang Xuan smiled.
Han Ji's resourcefulness is undoubtedly top-notch, but he is a bit over the top when it comes to things like this.
In a word, he is too controlling.
Han Ji thought about it several times and gradually realized it.
"In this way, Lang Jun is in the middle, coordinating and suppressing the union... Isn't this the art of the emperor?"
Han Ji was startled and his eyes showed a strange color, "Dare you ask Mr. Lang Jun for advice."
What kind of great talent is this? He is even proficient in the art of emperors.
This...how do you want me to answer this?
Yang Xuan coughed dryly, "That gentleman used a name, called...Suzaku!"
…
"Xiao Xuanzi, come back and become a disciple!"
Suzaku is very happy.
Yang Xuan felt that we couldn't continue talking about this matter, "The enemy is newly defeated. I'm afraid they will come up with some tricks to wait for our scouts. If nothing happens, Old Han, please bring some guards to pick up the second one."
Han Ji got fifty guards from Wu Da, and asked Lin Feibao for twenty horned dragon guards, and then set off.
Tu Shang also followed.
"Mr. Han is thinking about Mr. Lang recently?"
Tu Shang rarely gets involved in these matters, but the so-called bystander can see more things.
Han Ji did not deny it, "My husband has a bright future. I think he is a little confused as to what to do next. Since I am here to help..."
"Don't worry about that!"
"Why?"
"Lang Jun knows how to go in the future!"
"A high-ranking official in the border area?"
Tu Shang said nothing.
Of course not.
Rather.
Rebellious!
"Enemy troops found ahead."
Han Ji looked up and saw, good guys, Qian Yuqi was driving Wang Laoer and others like ducks.
"Can you please help me?" Tu Shang asked.
"good."
Dozens of riders came forward to meet him.
"Run!" Wang Laoer shouted.
This idiot!
Tu Shang said: "Wait a little longer."
"What are you waiting for?" Han Ji looked at him.
Tu Shang said: "The art of war passed down from my family."
Han Ji glanced at Zhang Xu, but Zhang Xu didn't respond.
So be it!
He is a counselor, not a general who specifically directs the scouting battle.
He has never tried micro-management.
But some are eager to try.
"Second brother, withdraw!"
Tu Shang rode his horse and rushed forward, leading dozens of guards to meet them.
"Tu Gong, you retreat first!"
Good boy... Tu Chang scolded: "If you don't obey the order, you will collect the dried meat later!"
Wang Laoer and his men rushed over from the side, and Tu Shang shouted: "Retreat!"
What's this?
After the break?
Han Ji is watching.
The art of war passed down from the family seems not to be very good at all!
"Slower!"
After cutting off the clothes, I would shout faster sometimes and slower sometimes.
The enemy troops are gradually approaching.
Tu Shang said: "Throw away your armor!"
grass!
What is this operation?
Several guards untied their armor haphazardly and threw it out.
Han Ji looked back and saw that the enemy troops were getting more and more arrogant as their armor was being thrown off. The enemy generals were leading the way, howling to capture them alive.
The two sides chased each other and fled, getting closer and closer.
Tu Shang suddenly said: "Zhang Xu left, Wu Da right, intercept for a moment!"
What is this going to do?
A moment of interception...
Zhang Xu led his guards to rein in their horses and turn around.
The iron rod met the enemy scout.
On the other side, Uda turned around with his guards and blocked the enemy.
In the middle, the enemy general rushed behind Tu Shang.
This is the moment!
When Han Ji saw Tu Shang's beard and hair growing wildly, he stared in disbelief and shouted.
The spear whipped around.
One punch!
It actually let out a scream.
Woo!
The enemy general wields his sword.
The long knife flew away.
Tu Shang swept across with his spear, and the enemy general fell down in disgrace.
Just as he fell, Tu Chang reached out and grabbed his armor, and with a lift, he lifted the enemy general in front of him.
"ah!"
The enemy general howled and struggled, but Tu Shang slapped him away.
The world is quiet.
"withdraw!"
The guards intercepting on both sides retreated.
The enemy troops were also dumbfounded.
The general was captured. How was the battle fought?
The key is, how do you explain it when you go back?
Encountering more than a hundred enemy scouts, the general led us in pursuit, but was captured inexplicably.
Shiro was able to chop off the deputy general's head as a warning to the entire army.
"Chase!"
Not far after the chase, when a group of cavalry appeared in front, the enemy lieutenant raised his hand.
"Stop!"
Tu Shang led the enemy general to the front of the camp and dropped him casually.
Looking at Han Ji, he said:
"This is the art of war passed down from my family."
