Chapter 1070 Jia Heng: General Jin, are you trying to teach me how to run an army?
Xining Fucheng, the official residence of the prince——
Jia Heng cast his cold eyes on Shi Guangzhu and Hou Xiaokang. Both of them shivered as if they were affected by a murderous intention.
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "General Hou, Yan Ye ordered you to lead the troops to Huangyuan to open up a way back. Why did you lead the troops to Xining without conquering Huangyuan?"
At this moment, Hu Kui, the commander-in-chief of Ningxia, looked pale. If Hou Xiaokang was prosecuted by military law, he would not be spared.
Hou Xiaokang's heart skipped a beat and he quickly explained: "Reporting to Duke Wei, at that time, our army had just been defeated and Huangyuan could no longer be taken. When this defeat was overwhelming, we could only try our best to bring the troops back to Xining and save them.
Military strength, General Hu can testify on this matter."
Hu Kui, the commander-in-chief of Ningxia, was shaken, stood up, clasped his fists and said: "Duke Wei, the last general led the troops to attack Huangyuan, but Huangyuan could not be captured for a long time and suffered heavy casualties. General Hou and I then led the troops back to Xining
.”
Hu Kui is the son-in-law of the king of Xining County, but he is still frightened when faced with the murderous young man in python suit.
Jin Xuan became more and more restless on the side, his lips moved, and he wanted to ask for mercy, but he hesitated.
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "After all, you are still greedy for life, afraid of death, and afraid of fighting! Have you ever thought about the tens of thousands of troops trapped in Haiyan? Just because you are timid in fighting, tens of thousands of people will be killed.
The army has no chance to escape, do you know your guilt?"
Hou Xiaokang's expression suddenly changed, he knelt down with a "pop" sound, and said quickly: "I am willing to accept my guilt and make meritorious service, and I also hope that the Commander-in-Chief will be successful."
Hu Kui, the commander-in-chief of Ningxia, also knelt down and shouted urgently: "Duke Wei, I am willing to serve as a soldier in front of the army and make meritorious service. I hope Duke Wei will spare my life."
Jia Heng snorted coldly, glanced at Jin Xuan, and shouted: "Push it out..."
"Wait a minute!" Jin Xuan finally couldn't hold it anymore, stood up, and said with cupped hands: "Mr. Wei, although the two generals made mistakes, now is the time to employ people. Can Mr. Wei open his eyes and let them do their job?"
A small soldier in front of the army, he has committed a crime and made meritorious service."
Jia Heng said coldly: "General Jin, military law is ruthless. General Jin wants me to show favoritism?"
"The last general knows that the military law of the country is strict, but the two generals are not guilty of death. If they fail to rescue Huangyuan, the last general will bring 30,000 fine cavalry to the rescue, but the Tatars still refuse to leave the East Gorge Stone Valley.
The last general is also at fault for failing to save the Nan'an army." Jin Xuan said quickly.
Jia Heng narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "General Jin is trying to teach me how to run an army?"
When Jin Xuan heard this, he was startled. He stood up, clasped his fists and saluted, and said, "The last general would like to ask Duke Wei to spare the lives of the two generals."
Jia Heng looked at Jin Xuan, silent for a while, then looked at Hou Xiaokang and General Hu Kui, and said: "For the sake of General Fuyuan's intercession for you, I will send you the head for the time being, but the death penalty will be avoided, and the life penalty will be spared."
There’s no way to escape!”
After saying that, he looked at Hou Xiaokang and Ningxia's commander-in-chief Hu Kui and said: "Come here, beat fifty military sticks and send them to the front of the army for use!"
After hearing this, Hou Xiaokang and Hu Kui breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as they survive, they have a chance to make a comeback.
At this time, Jia Heng helped Jin Xuan up with both hands and said comfortingly: "General Fuyuan, please get up quickly."
Jin Xuan sighed, and said in a tone that sounded like he was blaming himself: "The general failed to respond in time to recapture Huangyuan, which cut off the retreat of the Western Army. His sin is not simple."
"General Fuyuan's ability to keep Xining intact and prevent the situation in the northwest from collapsing has already made a lot of contributions to the imperial court. But did General Fuyuan say that there are still 30,000 cavalry in Xining City?" Jia Heng asked.
He had just used this to put pressure on Jin Xuan, forcing him to hand over the command of 30,000 Xining cavalry.
At this moment, Shi Guangzhu watched this scene quietly, with a layer of gloom in his heart.
The man is a swordsman and I am a fish and meat. Now that man is becoming more and more decisive in his killing.
Who caused him and the prince to suffer such a huge defeat?
Jin Xuan expressed his position: "There are thirty thousand cavalry. If the imperial court wants to send troops to Qinghai, the general is willing to send troops and horses to support the imperial cavalry."
At this moment, nearly 100,000 elite cavalry troops were sent out to fight, which could be described as overwhelming the country. If he kept his strength, he would probably be held accountable by the imperial court.
Jia Heng nodded and said with approval: "General Fuyuan knows the general picture."
Thinking like this, he then swept his cold eyes over Shi Guangzhu, who was kneeling down to plead guilty, looked at the bleeding chest, and said, "Come here, help General Shi up."
Shi Guangzhu was feeling uneasy. Hearing this, his heart was shaken and he raised his eyes to look at the young man.
Jia Heng said: "Although General Shi was greedy for merit and rushed forward, he was able to fight fiercely with the enemy and was seriously injured. As for his merits and demerits, he will return to the capital after the northwest war is over and hand them over to the Holy One for judgment."
To put it bluntly, the injuries on his body helped Shi Guangzhu gain some points. Of course, after returning, Emperor Chongping would also deprive him of the title as appropriate.
It can be said that for the whole founding lineage, it was okay for Chen Ruiwen, the grandson of Chen Yi, Duke of Qi, to die in battle, but because of his kindness to his honorable ministers, his incense continued, and other nobles would be severely punished.
It can be predicted that from then on, the founding lineage failed to recover and gradually moved away from the political center of the Han Dynasty.
In other words, at this moment, the original Red Mansion has reached the time when the Nan'an defeat in the original work, the exploration of spring and marriage, the time when all the fragrances of the three springs have dispersed, and everyone has to find their own homes, but the difference is that it is the time when the flowers are blooming and the fire is cooking the oiled paper.
When Shi Guangzhu heard this, his body shook violently, tears welled up in his eye sockets, and there was a sour feeling in his nose. He bowed to the young man in the python suit and said: "General, I would like to thank Duke Wei, and I would like to be a small pawn. Let's go
I will listen to you before the army, and I hope that Duke Wei will not give up."
Jia Heng looked at Shi Guangzhu and said, "Help him up."
As the guards of Jinyi Mansion helped Shi Guangzhu up, Jia Heng's move to establish his power in Xining Mansion City came to an end.
Seeing that the matter was settled, Jin Xuan had complicated thoughts and accompanied him with a smile and said: "Mr. Wei, our brothers are also hungry. Let's eat some food first."
Jia Heng said: "General Jin please."
Then, the generals in the Beijing camp and the generals in Xining Prefecture began to eat and drink.
It's just that most of the generals in Xining Prefecture were not in a good mood after passing the previous marching law.
After sending Jia Heng and the generals from the Beijing camp back to the Chinese army camp to rest, Jin Xuancai, accompanied by his son-in-law Fang Jin, returned to the Prince's Mansion of Xining County.
Fang Jin was worried and said: "My father-in-law, this Duke of Wei is really decisive in killing. This man's head will be chopped off at will. Who is this for?"
Jin Xuan walked slowly on the corridor with his hands behind his back and sighed: "All the troops in the Beijing camp were defeated. Now I only cut off one head, which is quite restrained."
There is no time to deal with the generals now because Yan Ye, Liu Fang and others are still in the hands of the enemy and will be dealt with again in the future.
"My father-in-law really wants to hand over the Xining cavalry to Duke Wei. Once the imperial army is defeated again, the consequences will be disastrous." Fang Jin said worriedly again.
Jin Xuan paused, looked at the rockery in the courtyard, and whispered: "Do we have any other choice?"
Nearly 100,000 elite cavalry troops came to Xining, and the Duke of Wei was so decisive in killing. What he said just now was that he could kill only a third-grade general, an earl, and a marquis. Wasn't this a hint at him?
Unless he inherited the title of Xining County Prince, there was no news of the imperial decree regarding the title.
Fang Jin whispered: "My father-in-law, how about..."
Jin Xuan frowned and said in a deep voice: "Don't mess around! The imperial court has nearly 100,000 troops here, how can we be arrogant!"
After pondering for a moment, he warned: "After the 30,000 cavalry troops are dispatched, there will be no mistakes in Xining Fucheng. If you have merit, the court will be able to talk to you."
Fang Jin nodded, but a gloomy light flashed in his eyes.
On his side, Jia Heng, accompanied by Xie Zaiyi, Cai Quan and others, inspected the generals from the Beijing camp who had fled back from Nan'an County King Yan Ye's defeat.
At the same time, they met many generals who had fled from Haiyan and Huangyuan.
The leader was Qianshi Lu Jing, the governor of Yaowu Camp, who cried out: "Mr. Wei Guo, our brothers are so miserable. They were chased by the Mongolian Tatars. They hid in Tibet and took a long way to escape."
"That Yan Ye has caused great harm to our brothers." A general's face surged with anger and he cursed: "How many of our brothers have been killed?"
"One general is incompetent and the three armies will be exhausted!" Other generals also angrily cursed.
Jia Heng's stern gaze under his sword-shaped brows glanced at the generals present, and said in a deep voice: "Brothers, I came here this time to avenge the tragic deaths of our brothers. If you are willing to do it, I will follow the army this time and kill all the He Shuotes."
Mongolian bastard!"
"good!"
"The Duke of Wei is good at conquering and fighting, and we can all win the battle if we follow him!"
The generals were in high spirits for a while and seemed to have regained some morale.
Jia Heng looked at the soldiers whose morale was gradually recovering and nodded secretly in his heart.
In fact, compared to the elites of the Beijing camp, it is better for these people to escape from death and come back. Through the comparison of pros and cons, it is proved that the prince of Nan'an County and the founding warriors are not worth mentioning.
In the evening, the bright sunset glow shines on Xining Fucheng, and the rows of houses and dotted camps are dyed with a layer of golden red.
Jia Heng returned to the Chinese army's tent, and Chahar Mongolian Khan Ezhe, accompanied by Mongolian general Bater, came to the tent to discuss matters.
"Duke Wei Guo, has sent people to explore along the map road." E Zhe said.
Jia Heng nodded and said: "There are many routes based on public opinion, and sometimes times have changed and it may not be possible to follow them. It is most appropriate for a scout to go through them."
Ezhe asked in surprise: "But I see that some roads seem to be old. I wonder where this map comes from?"
Jia Heng said: "Before I left, I accompanied the Jinyi Mansion Guards to find the map route of King Zhou's expedition to the west from the Ministry of War."
"King Zhou." Ezhe murmured, a flash of memory appeared in his eyes, and he suddenly said: "No wonder."
Jia Heng said: "Ezhe Khan, our army still wants to recapture Huangyuan. Only with this city in my hands can we use it as a base to attack the Mongolian tribes."
E Zhe's expression changed slightly, and he quickly reminded: "There are many tunnels in the city, so you need to be careful when doing it."
"I have already been screened by the Jinyi Mansion, and I will only pile up military supplies after the removal of traitors is completed." Jia Heng said.
E Zhe said: "If this is the case, there is nothing wrong with it."
After it was decided to send troops, E Zheping retreated from the surrounding generals and said: "Duke Wei, I have something to ask Duke Wei."
Jia Heng smiled and said: "Ezhe Khan, you and I are not outsiders, but it doesn't matter if you say it."
E Zhe glanced at the face of the young man in the python suit, considered his words, and said: "When I was in Nianbo County the day before yesterday, after my daughter went out with Duke Wei, she often stopped thinking about food and drinks, eating and laughing. I don't know why.
?”
He was taking the girl out to see the world. Why did he look at this attitude and allow this person to be bullied?
In fact, according to the habits of the grassland, I might have been able to get things done on the grass before.
Jia Heng frowned and said, "Well, did Ezhe Khan misunderstand something? By the way, where is this... Yaruo?"
Sometimes they giggle? It’s just holding hands, as for?
However, I haven't seen Yaruo much in the past two days.
Maybe the little girls in the Grand View Garden are all the same, but he doesn't know?
E Zhe stared at Jia Heng aggressively and said, "Duke Wei, my daughter is the jewel in my golden family's eye. I don't want her to be harmed. Do you know?"
Jia Heng said: "Ezhe Khan misunderstood."
Under Ezhe's thick eyebrows, a pair of tiger eyes stared at the young man and said: "Not much else to say, in short, Ya Ruo cannot be a concubine."
Jia Heng said: "Ezhe Khan, it is not too late to wait until the court has finished the northwest war before we talk about this."
Okay, another one wants the position of head wife. How can there be so many positions of head wife? How about he count again and see where there are military exploits that have not yet been achieved?
E Zhe said: "Let's do this for today."
He also helped his daughter to test the Duke of Wei. Could it be that he was overthinking it?
Not long after Ezhe left, Jia Heng shook his head and came to the map again, stopping to think.
At this moment, there was a sound of light footsteps outside the military tent. Chen Xiao entered with his sword and said softly: "The King of Wei has escorted the grain and the treasure to Lanzhou. He will be here in two days."
"Send someone over to pick up the grain." Jia Heng pondered for a moment and said: "When Shuo Tuo, Zhang Shang and others arrive, and Yan Ye and Liu Fang are replaced, we will take action immediately. I will make the entire Qinghai land fall to the Han army."
Under the iron heel."
This window period itself is the time to figure out the route and deploy troops and generals.
Chen Xiao asked: "Did Khan Ezhe just come to you to ask questions?"
"It's nothing, I never thought that girl would be so careless with teasing." Jia Heng sighed and said.
"After all, the girl on the grassland has a simpler mind and won't let you pull all kinds of strings. Once I fall in love with you, it won't matter if you don't come back that day." Chen Xiao glanced at the young man and said, "I always feel that you can get the advantage and still have it.
Where are you being good?"
Jia Heng said: "I have already passed through thousands of sails, and the water in the slanting light has become long. Since I have pretended to be a few of you, I can no longer tolerate others."
In the Grand View Garden, the female competition mode has been activated under certain environmental factors. It can be said that everyone is a little master entering the palace, engaging in various intrigues.
"Who are you?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Well." Jia Heng suddenly looked around and asked, "Is King Qi still in the city at the moment? I didn't see him during the dinner just now."
"He hasn't left yet." Chen Xiao's eyes flickered and he frowned and said, "I'll let people keep an eye on him."
"You haven't said yet, which ones are they?" Chen Xiao took Jia Heng's hand, put it close to Jia Heng's ear, and asked.
She was also a little curious, who was in this person's heart? Xianning, Chanyue, Jinyang, Chaidai, Qin, her?
Or is she the enchanting concubine of the Zhen family?
I can count them over and over again, but it’s not just a few.
The girl obviously doesn't know that there is a kind of quantifier that is a function word.
Jia Heng composed himself and said: "Actually, there are internal agents in Huangyuan City, and there may not be internal agents in Xining City. I always feel that the food route to Huangyuan has been cut off, and I'm afraid there is another hidden secret."
Seeing that the young man kept avoiding talking, Chen Xiaoqing's eyes flashed, and he stopped asking questions, but frowned and thought: "What do you mean?"
Jia Heng cast his calm gaze on the map and whispered, "It's just a vague intuition."
Well, I don’t know why, but I always feel like I’ve seen Fat Spirit.
Is there a voice-over? During the Chongping period of the Han Dynasty, the Heshuote Mongols in Qinghai invaded the border. Yan Ye, the king of Nan'an County, led 100,000 troops. The entire army was annihilated and Shenjing was shocked.
This case is called Qinghai Spy Shadow.
"Xiaoxiao, what do you think?" Jia Heng said.
Chen Xiao said: "If there is an internal agent, it can only be from the Xining Mansion. I will let the Jinyi Mansion secretly investigate."
Jia Heng's face paused and he said softly: "I have asked Qu Lang to take care of this matter. In addition, our marching route also needs to be kept secret."
Chen Xiao whispered: "It's getting late, it's time to have dinner."
At this moment, a familiar and charming voice came from outside, it was Ya Ruo's voice.
"Is Brother Heng in the military tent?" Yaruo called again.
Chen Xiao glanced at the young man and said, "Here comes someone. Please be careful in a moment."
Jia Heng felt a little helpless. Although he might have some illness, the experience of rushing ducks to the shelves was not good. He asked: "Yaruo, you are here, what are you carrying?"
But he saw the girl had changed into a blue and white Mongolian warrior costume, a smile appeared on her red face, holding an oil paper bag, and said: "Brother Heng, this is roast mutton, have you never eaten it?
."
Jia Heng smiled and said, "Come here, let me have a try."
Seeing Jia Heng's promise, Yaruo smiled with two dimples on her face, her red apple cheeks smiled lightly, and said, "I just baked it, let you try it."
Jia Heng stood up and went to greet him.
I always feel that there is something wrong with deceiving a little girl's feelings, but this time I really went after her Mongolian spirit.
Yaruo rolled up her sleeves slightly, revealing a lotus root arm with skin as thick as gelatin. She opened the oil paper package, and immediately the fragrant roasted lamb leg showed its true colors, golden and crispy, which made people appetizing at first sight.
"Here." Yaruo took a leg of lamb and handed it over.
It is indescribable to describe the kind of clean, clear and innocent smile that seems to have the simplicity of a grassland with high sky and low clouds. Liao Kuo in the blue sky is like a charming narcissus swaying in the wind.
Jia Heng was shaken for a moment and looked at the girl with bright eyebrows. She was completely different from the generous and frankness of the Central Plains women.
He is probably Ya Ruo's first love, right?
According to Wenqing's idea, should we miss the whole thing and regret it? Then, on the vast grassland, when the wind blows and the grass is low and the cattle and sheep are seen, we meet again and look at each other.
"Ama, Ama." A little boy with a shaved pot head and pigtails, wearing Mongolian clothes, ran out and called.
Suddenly, a muscular man came out and asked: Yaruo, who is that?
Is the background music Dolma or Ulaanbaatar Nights?
Jia Heng chuckled and said, "Ya Ruo, I'll ask the guard to prepare a pot of wine, and we can have a drink."
I guess Mongolian men at this time also liked drinking, and would beat their wives after drinking too much?
Yaruo responded softly. Under her willow eyebrows, her black grape eyes were a little shy and she said, "Brother Heng, I won't drink too much wine."
Chen Xiao glanced at the two of them, and then silently left the military tent. After a while, he brought a bottle of wine to the two of them.
Jia Heng picked up the mutton leg with one hand, took the dagger, gently scraped the mutton on it, cut off a piece, put it in his mouth, and bit it for a while, it was quite chewy.
Yaruo's eyes were bright and she said softly: "Is it delicious?"
Jia Heng chuckled and praised: "It's delicious. The lamb is roasted to be soft and sweet. Ya Ruo is so good at it."
He secretly thought that it would be good to marry such a little girl back home. There would always be someone to help with the barbecue, so he didn't have to worry about the fat little girl Bao Qin being pickled by the venison roaster when Lu Xue'an was grilling meat.
Yaruo also took a dagger, gently cut the mutton on the bone, and whispered: "Brother Heng, I will cut it for you."
Jia Heng took the jug, poured himself two glasses of wine, and said, "Yaruo."
The girl said as she handed over the dagger with the mutton on it.
Jia Heng looked at the girl and was startled, but did not open his mouth.
"Brother Heng." Yaruo's cheeks turned red, and her clear eyes seemed to contain a trace of softness, which was hope.
Jia Heng opened his mouth slightly and bit into a piece of mutton.
Ordinarily, if the dagger enters even slightly at this moment, it may be dangerous, but Yaruo, who prides himself on his skill in capturing and arresting, and has a shy look on his face, has no motive to do harm.
Yaruo's originally cold voice was a little softer, and her soft eyes said with attachment: "Brother Heng."
Brother Heng trusts her and she will be able to marry him in the future.
Jia Heng took a sip of wine and stared at the girl opposite who also cut a piece of meat from the lamb leg, ate it gently and said, "Yaruo, you can eat some too."
"I'm not hungry, Brother Heng, just eat." Yaruo looked at the young man with longing eyes under his eyebrows, picked up the wine cup and took a sip.
Jia Heng stared at the pretty girl and whispered: "Yaruo, you are so virtuous and lovely, it would be great if you marry her back home."
Yaruo said quietly: "Brother Heng is all talk but no practice."
Jia Heng: "..."
What did he do wrong before? To make Ya Ruo say that to him?
Under Yaruo's willow eyebrows, Black Grape's eyes were as bright as water as she looked at the young man and said, "Father Khan is here to find you?"
Jia Heng came closer, took Ya Ruo's weak and boneless hand, and said softly: "Well, let's talk about this battle."
Yaruo's cheeks turned slightly red, her glossy lips pursed, and she said, "Didn't you say anything else?"
Jia Heng said: "You say that Ya Ruo has been distracted these days. I wonder what she is thinking about?"
Because of E Zhe's family education, the girl can be said to be quite proficient in Han culture, so there is no need to worry that she will not understand what she is saying.
"I'm not thinking about anything." Yaruo said softly, and suddenly her delicate body trembled slightly. She put a hand on her shoulder, turned her head and looked over, and met a pair of clear eyes. Under her beautiful eyebrows, there were a bunch of curved eyelashes.
And drooping, it seems that he has closed his bright eyes.
Jia Heng stared at the girl, moved closer, and as he breathed closer, he could see the blush flowing on Apple's skin through the light.
It seems like this Chahar Mongolian girl is a bit of an easy girl?
But at this moment, Yaruo suddenly opened her eyes, turned her rouge-red face, gently pushed Jia Heng's shoulder away, and said with shame: "Brother Heng, let's eat the leg of lamb."
Father Khan had asked her grandma to teach her since she was a child. Before getting a promise, she should not let men take advantage of her, otherwise they would not cherish her.
But she also seems to want to get close to Brother Heng...
Jia Heng was also a little silent at this moment. Just now, it was too early to speak.
And he was originally all-powerful, but his current mentality is really just like a villain script. The more you resist me, the more excited you become?
