Guo Bang sat in front of the case, facing a sumptuous meal and wine, but he had no appetite at all.
Xie Guang was watching the battle in front of the formation, constantly sending the latest battle status to the Chinese army. Guo Si's mood also fluctuated, and he couldn't live in peace.
Underneath the panic, there was a faint worry.
If the previous attack was repulsed by Dong Cheng, it might have been an accident. Today, Li Shi's attack on Shi Sun Rui's position failed, but Guo Si had to re-understand the imperial court and its strength.
If one is an accident, two are unlikely to be accidents.
I heard from Xie Guang that there was also fighting on the south side of the battlefield. As for who was attacking Hu Feng, it is still unclear at the moment.
There is a position of the Flying Bear Army in the middle, so the rangers have to make a long circle to reach the battlefield, and may be intercepted by the Flying Bear Army's rangers on the way. Even if the news comes back, it will be half a day later.
But Guo Si guessed that there were only two people who would fight Hu Feng: either Yang Feng or Yang Ding.
Yang Feng is more likely, after all, he is closer.
If it is true, then Yang Fengneng has been fighting fiercely with Hu Feng for so long, which shows that his strength has also increased.
Then it's even less likely to be an accident.
So, what method did the imperial court use to turn several weak brigades into elites in a short period of time?
Is it the emperor or Jia Xu?
"General, bring Ding Chong." There is a report from the guards.
Guo Bang retracted his thoughts, nodded, and signaled his bodyguards to lead Ding in. At the same time, he straightened his body and forced out a gentle smile.
Footsteps sounded, and Ding Chong walked in slowly.
His face was washed clean, his crest was still neat, but his body was still dirty, and a sour smell could be smelled from a distance.
"Ding Jun, please sit down." Guo Si stood up to greet him, smiling broadly.
Ding Chong glanced at him, ignored his objection, sat down at the table slowly, picked up the wine glass, and drank it all in one gulp.
Guo Bang straightened up in embarrassment and shouted: "What are you doing here in a daze? Why don't you give Ding Jun more wine?"
The young maid on the side shivered with fright and quickly walked forward to give Ding Chong more wine.
Ding Chong glanced at the maid and frowned slightly. "Where are you from?"
"Back to Mr. Ding, I am from Luoyang." The maid said timidly, filling Ding Chong's glass with wine.
"Which family in Luoyang?"
"Luoyang Meng family, a small family."
"Luoyang Mengshi." Ding Chong pondered for a moment. "Do you know Meng Yu and Meng Junlie?"
The maid was stunned for a moment, with hope shining in her eyes. "That...that's my grandpa."
Ding Chong nodded, turned to Guo Bang and said, "General, give this woman to me."
Guo Bang grinned. "Okay, if Mr. Ding wants it, just give it to Mr. Ding. Anyway, I still have many in the camp." He glanced at the maid. "From now on, you are Mr. Ding's person, so why not?"
Thank you Mr. Ding?"
The maid cried with joy, knelt in front of Ding Chong, and kowtowed repeatedly.
Ding Chong just waved his hand and motioned the maid to get up without saying a word.
"The general invited me here. He gave me wine and meat, and now he's also sending a woman. Do you want my help with something?"
Guo Bang pretended to be bold and laughed loudly. "No, no, it's just that I've been rude in the past two days. I've wronged Mr. Ding and I just want to apologize. Mr. Ding doesn't need to care. You don't need to care."
Ding Chong's mouth twisted. "Seriously not?"
"Seriously..." Guo Bang rolled his eyes. "...I have to say, I really have a little something, and I would like to ask Ding Jun for help."
"you say."
"I want to meet Mr. Jia." Guo Si secretly looked at Ding Chong's eyes. Seeing Ding Chong's disdain, he immediately said: "Of course, if Mr. Ding is in trouble, you can help me bring a letter to Mr. Jia, that's fine too.
."
"Okay, you prepare it as soon as possible, I'll take two bites and then leave."
"It's okay, it's okay. Mr. Ding can enjoy it slowly. These are the best mutton and the best ale. They are specially prepared for Mr. Ding. Mr. Ding can use them slowly. I'm not in a hurry."
"Okay, thank you General for your thoughtfulness." Ding Chong drank another glass of wine, cut off a piece of meat, put it into his mouth, and started chewing.
Seeing that she had the opportunity to leave Guo Si's camp, the maid Meng was extremely attentive and served Ding Chong carving meat and pouring wine.
Guo Bang watched Ding Chong eating and drinking with a smile. When Ding Chong was almost done eating, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Meng. Meng took it and handed it to Ding Chong with both hands.
Ding Chong took it without looking at it, threw it on the case, and sucked the grease from his fingers.
"General, with all due respect, even if you meet Mr. Jia, Mr. Jia will not have anything else to say." Ding Chong raised his head and looked at Guo Si. "If the emperor wants to establish peace in the world, it is necessary to stabilize Liangzhou.
The scholars of Liangzhou are willing to work with the imperial court, but the imperial court cannot ask for it. However, the imperial court does not support useless people, and it will not condone traitors and ministers who use force to violate the prohibition and bring trouble to the imperial court."
Guo Bang's smile was a little awkward, and his eyes were a little uneasy.
"So, Li Jue must die." Ding Chong raised his glass again. "Whether the general dies depends on others but the general himself."
Guo Bang stared at Ding Chong for a while. "Ding Jun, tell me, how can I not die?"
"General, why would you ask knowingly?" Ding Chong laughed, drank the wine in the glass, picked up the slip on the case, stood up, and pointed at the half of the pot of meat left on the case. "Bring it with you, mine.
My wife and children have suffered for so long, and it’s time for them to taste the meat.”
After saying that, he rolled his sleeves and walked away.
Meng looked at Guo Bang uneasily, and Guo Bang raised his eyebrows and waved his hand to signal her to leave quickly.
Meng hurriedly picked up the meat basin, rushed out of the big tent, and trotted to catch up with Ding Chong. While saluting, she said: "Thank you Ding Jun for saving your life. Thank you Ding Jun for saving your life." Tears fell down uncontrollably.
on the meat.
Ding Chong looked at Meng and said nothing, but slowed down to let Meng catch up.
Meng held the meat basin tightly and followed every step.
One of Guo Si's personal guards chased after him and escorted Ding out of the camp.
Along the way, countless women in ragged clothes looked at Meng who was in tears and looked at the meat basin in Meng's arms with envious eyes. Some people mustered up their courage and rushed out, kneeling in front of Ding Chong before they could.
When he spoke, he was kicked down by the bodyguard.
Ding Chong didn't look back and walked all the way out of the camp.
The attendants who came with him were also released and were waiting outside the camp with their horses.
Ding rushed onto his horse and headed straight for Dong Cheng's camp.
Entering Dong Cheng's camp, he met Xu Huang, who was fully armed. Hearing that the emperor was commanding the battle in front of the formation, Ding Chong rushed to the battlefield again. At the foot of the plateau, he ordered his attendants to take the Meng family to the plateau, including people and meat.
He handed it to his wife together and rushed to Liu Xie to report the situation.
After running all the way, Ding broke out in sweat, and his face that had been washed was covered with loess, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
Liu Xie was both surprised and moved. "Youyang, thank you for your hard work."
"Thank you for your hard work." Before Ding Chong could say anything, tears welled up and two ditches formed on his face. "If Your Majesty hadn't fought hard with all the soldiers and let Guo Si experience the majesty of the imperial court, I would have been Guo Si's sword long ago.
If you go to hell, there is no chance of seeing the beauty of heaven again."
