Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Looking at the tall man who was holding her hand on the bed and refused to let go, and was sound asleep, Empress Dowager Fu couldn't think of any words to describe him for a moment.

He is so powerful, so assertive, with all the power in the world in his hands, he seems to be an extremely powerful person, unattainable, brilliant and wise, everyone in the world thinks that he is a wise king who has not been seen for hundreds of years.

But in fact, in his heart, the official family is a somewhat domineering and bad little brother, young and courageous.

Recalling that when the first emperor was still there and he was the empress, he dared to look at himself directly in front of the officials, and he dared to look up at him when everyone bowed their heads.

She thought at that time, what a brave young man, he was so bold and rude, he stood out from the crowd, but he was also the most powerful one among the generals at that time, so that the officials didn't bother to argue with him on such trivial matters.

Thinking of the way he looked at her, in fact, she had trouble falling asleep many days and nights, telling herself in her heart that she should be a mother, abide by women's morals, and not be shameless. He is still her brother-in-law, but when she closes her eyes, she will think of him if she doesn't pay attention. That look.

Maybe this is the man of destiny, always so maverick, so bold, and so unconventional, it also makes her toss and turn, and always remembers it in her heart.

Thinking about it now, it's really a sea of ​​vicissitudes, and the world is unpredictable. She never imagined that the relationship between herself and him could reach this point.

How could she have thought that one day she would share the bed with this young man and go to Wushan together... Thinking about it, her face was hot and upset, and she didn't know how to face Liu Mei, but she saw her on the bed. Some people sleep soundly without conscience, as if their plight has nothing to do with him.who made this...

"Miss!"

At this moment, the back hall remembered the brisk footsteps of the second sister. She even put away her face, straightened her waist, and slapped her ruddy face with her hands, acting more dignified, but her hands were pulled by the officials, and she was in a hurry. Can't break free.

The second sister soon arrived at the front hall, and said happily: "Eldest sister, come and see, the moon outside is round and big, come and see!"

The second sister never looked like a lady, and her footsteps were different from everyone else's, and she could hear them clearly from a long distance away.

But the second younger sister shut up quickly when she saw her appearance, the official turned over at this moment, dawdled up with her big hand skillfully, grasped her majestic mountain peak with precision, and whispered in her mouth like in a dream ;"Queen Mother, warm me quickly..."

Empress Dowager Fu blushed, the elder sister's majesty could no longer hold back, seeing that the second younger sister was about to leave, she even shouted: "Stop! Come here, help me serve the official family to rest..."

She said vindictively, her heart was pounding, her mind was in a mess, she had never been so embarrassed in front of her second sister, and she didn't dare to knock down the official's hand, the official is the emperor and the world Master, no one can defy.

Her majesty as the eldest sister for so many years seemed to be shattered in an instant. In desperation, she thought of revenge and selfishness, and dragged the second sister into the water, so that she would not be the only one who was sorry for the sixth sister. If she wanted to confess her mistake to the sixth sister , Also pull on the second sister!

So with a stern face, he ignored the restless big hands, and tried to maintain his face and said, "Come here, don't leave!"

The second sister panicked, and took half a step back, "Eldest sister..."

"This is an order. Everyone knows that you are in the palace. You can't hide. Come here quickly. I'll teach you. It's not okay to be a girl at such a young age."

"I..." The second younger sister's face was pale and rosy, and she stayed where she was for a while, unable to move forward or retreat.

Empress Dowager Fu kept a straight face. Now that things have happened, she has no way out, she can only follow the advice: "Listen to the elder sister, you can't escape, this is a matter of time, come here, I will teach you...... "

The second younger sister lowered her head to look at her toes, her face became more rosy, under the majesty of the elder sister, she had no choice but to move over step by step.

......

The weather in Daliang is the best in autumn, and the Mid-Autumn feast lasts until midnight, and the palace is also brightly lit. In ancient times, when there was a lack of lighting means, staying up all night was an extremely scarce and fresh day in a year, and there were only so many in a year several times.

Rare things are precious, so the celebration of the Mid-Autumn Festival is difficult for people who live in the bright night of later generations to understand, and the same is true for Emperor Shi's dream.

Chapter 375, Difficult Choice

In autumn, the Nguyen River flows eastward, clear to the bottom, with ripples as boats pass by, fish and shrimp swimming in the river are clearly visible, and aquatic plants are floating, swaying and dancing lightly.

The boat moved along the east bank, and the riverside was densely covered with jungles. Unknown birds were singing in the shadows of the dark trees. The rustling wind was mixed with the rustling of branches and leaves, which sounded like ominous sounds in ghost legends.

Walking alone in such a remote place, subconsciously, you will feel frightened.

However, the man standing at the bow of the small boat was obviously not afraid. He was not tall, and even looked a little short, not as tall as the tall attendants behind him, wearing a cloak made of sheepskin.

In the south, not many people use sheepskin cloaks, because most people can't stand the smell, but he is not a southerner, and wearing sheepskin cloaks has been a habit he has developed since childhood.

Yin Chongke, a native of Tianshui, Gansu Province, was a training envoy of the Langzhou Regiment of the Qin Dynasty, and he was also a general who followed the current day.

In the next week, he participated in the Battle of Gaoping and moved to the deputy inspection of the class.

From today's son's expedition to Huainan, he became the commander of the second army of Hujie's left wing after his meritorious service.

Conquering Wuping, he was the commander of the former army and horse army in the camp. After Wuping was pacified, the officials kept him in Langzhou to train as an envoy for the Langzhou regiment, and then guarded Jingchu together with Pan Mei and others.

"How long will it take to reach Tanzhou?" Yin Chongke asked anxiously. The shadows of the trees on both sides of the strait were receding quickly, but he felt that it was not fast enough.

Even the brisk boat could hardly relieve his anxiety. This was not the first time he had asked the boatman about this.

The boatman was a little impatient: "Master, you have asked me this question several times, and I have promised several times. I can arrive this evening. I am already the fastest rower. If you are distracted, you might delay your trip."

"Okay, okay, if you don't ask, hurry up, I have something important to do!" Yin Chongke could only say.

"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely arrive today."

Yin Chongke nodded, his expression still anxious.

The reason why he was so anxious was because yesterday afternoon, when he was training in the camp in the north of Langzhou City, he received an urgent letter from Pan Mei, the trainer of the Tanzhou Regiment.

The letter said that in early August, the Southern Han Dynasty sent troops across the border and attacked Guiyang County in the south. The local Qin army stepped forward to stop them, but three people were killed.

The Southern Han Kingdom is blatantly invading!

After Cao Bin received the news, he immediately sent troops from Tanzhou to support him along the Xiangjiang River, and notified him at the same time.

Yin Chongke didn't dare to be negligent. When the officials left, they handed over the entire Jingnan defense line to him and Pan Mei. One was guarding Tanzhou and the other was stationed in Langzhou.

So on the one hand, he asked his deputy to gather troops and horses, ready to enter Dongting Lake along Ruan River to reach Tanzhou at any time, and then go down the Xiangjiang River to help Guiyang and other places. On the other hand, he packed lightly and set off immediately to Tanzhou to discuss with Pan Mei. Of the policy.

Along the way, Yin Chongke thought about it, anxious and puzzled, whether the Southern Han Dynasty was arrogant or just stupid, this year the officials just flattened the East River, defeated the Khitan, and showed their kindness to the world, both the Liao Kingdom and the Southern Han Dynasty were terrified Dare to move, be respectful, who gave them the courage to attack Guiyang at this time!

Or did the Southern Han Dynasty really think that they were strong and strong, and wanted to go north to plot the world?But with their small size, they dare to compete with the current state of Qin!

With doubts, he took a light boat and went down in the autumn wind, and he arrived in Tanzhou in the afternoon.

A group of cavalry had already been waiting there for a long time at the ferry, holding the banner of the Xiaoxiang Army, and greeted the curious eyes of pedestrians and business travelers around.

Yin Chongke went ashore and reported his name, and the other party immediately escorted him to the east of the city after verification.

They didn't enter the city along the way, but went directly to the Xiaoxiang army camp.

Pan Mei is not only the training envoy of the Tanzhou Regiment, but also the commander of the Xiaoxiang Army. When she arrived at the outskirts of the camp, she got the password and continued to go deeper. After passing through a large crowd, she arrived at the big tent of the Chinese army. Pan Mei and many generals and officials had already gathered in the big tent. discuss.

Seeing him coming, they all gave way to let him in, and then greeted each other a few words.

After entering the big tent, Pan Mei pointed to the illustrated scriptures on the table without saying a word, "During the ten days since the beginning of this month, the Southern Han Kingdom has harassed Guiyang seven times, killed three of our frontier soldiers, and returned More than ten households were robbed."

"Have you sent someone there?" Yin Chongke asked.

Pan Mei nodded: "An additional battalion has been sent, and it is expected to arrive in Guiyang tomorrow, but I don't know what the Southern Han Kingdom wants to do, whether it is a demonstration, or the actions of local officials and generals, or a big war that they want to start.

Either way we have to deal with it, especially if they want to fight a big fight, there may be more people behind. "

Yin Chongke was furious and thumped the table: "Where did they get the courage!"

"I don't know..." Pan Mei also shook her head: "I still don't know the enemy's purpose at the moment. According to the report from Guiyang, there are still soldiers from the Southern Han Dynasty in several villages and towns to the south."

As he spoke, he pointed to the location of Beihan on the map: "However, to be honest, I have a little guess, they probably want to take advantage of the chaos to get some benefits.

It's just that the south is far away, the news is blocked, and the officials have blocked the news, so they haven't reacted for a month or two.

Moreover, they probably thought that the war in the north would last at least a year and a half, and they far underestimated the power of the officials. "

Yin Chongke nodded, and said with some conviction: "That makes sense."

"What about the local people?"

"We have already moved north to Guiyang City, but if there is a real fight, Guiyang will not feel well. The city wall there is only more than one foot long, and the county town is too small to accommodate too many people," Pan Mei said.

"Then don't defend. If they dare to make a move, we will fight directly and preemptively! At least move the army to the south, along the Xiangjiang River to Hengzhou.

The Langzhou Xiang Army, together with the Tanzhou Xiaoxiang Army, has at least 2 people.

In the event of an accident in the south, we can continue to send reinforcements from Hengzhou to the south, and it is also close to Guiyang, so we can send a steady stream of troops to Guiyang, or even directly counterattack. " Yin Chongke said directly.

"More than 2 people is not a small number...

Such a large-scale use of troops to go to the territory of other countries should be reported to the imperial court first..." Pan Mei hesitated, and then lowered her voice: "What's more, the officials only dealt with those arrogant soldiers who held military power this year. Jiedushi..."

After saying this, the tent was quiet for a while, and they knew about the major events in the court, not to mention the weakening of the feudal town. Even the emperor's father-in-law, Fu Yanqing, retired and returned home, and the others were not spared.

This is a major event that shakes the court, even if it is thousands of miles away, it has already been reported.

This incident also gave them a reminder and warning to those generals who were leading troops abroad, and they were all vigilant in their hearts, for fear of following in the footsteps of those Jiedu envoys.Many generals restrained themselves and became more careful.

Yin Chongke was a little anxious. He was also the leader of the army and the training envoy of the Langzhou Regiment, but he didn't have so many complicated things in his mind after fighting all the way.

"All envoys, the general will not accept the order of the king outside!

How can we wait for such a critical moment? Besides, the situation on the battlefield will change in the blink of an eye. If the Southern Han Dynasty really makes a big move, we should ask the court to increase our troops before it is too late.

We will ask the imperial court for instructions when we send troops..."

All eyes in the big tent were focused on Pan Mei. He is the commander of the Xiaoxiang Army and the highest military official present. Everyone must listen to him. He has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and therefore the pressure is enormous.

For a while, Pan Mei was also in a dilemma, unable to make up her mind.

"Everyone, let's send troops!"

"Everyone, think twice, don't be careless at such a critical point..."

"What if the Southern Han people send a large army to the north!"

"If the officials suspect me of waiting!"

"........"

Everyone said something to each other, and everyone had their own opinions for a while, and the chaos in the big tent couldn't convince anyone.

"Everyone be quiet, be quiet!" Pan Mei raised her hand and called everyone to stop.

The chaotic big tent gradually calmed down and gathered on him again, "Everyone go out first, give me half an hour to think carefully, and I will give you an answer in half an hour."

The generals and officials couldn't say anything, they all nodded, and then retreated one by one.

When the last person exited the big tent, the green curtain was lowered, and the big tent was pitch black. It was like entering another world in an instant, isolated from the hustle and bustle outside.

Pan Mei took a deep breath, feeling as if an invisible boulder was pressing on her heart, she was a little out of breath for a while, all kinds of thoughts came to her mind one after another, like claws scratching her heart, it was hard to get used to it...

Chapter 376, Twin Phoenixes

Outside the tent, drums and horns blared, the south was full of dust, and the dust was blown up by the wind, and a large number of soldiers of the Xiaoxiang Army were exercising shirtless, shouting.

On the river in the distance, there are a lot of sails, and many military ships are docked on the shore.

The water army is the dominant force of the Xiaoxiang Army. Because of Dongting Lake, the Yangtze River can be used as a natural training ground.

Because of this, many people think that if they want to send troops to the Southern Han Dynasty, the Xiaoxiang Army will definitely be the vanguard, because the navy army is also indispensable to fight the Southern Han Dynasty, and Daliang can only rely on Bianshui or manually dig a pool to train the navy army. , but Bianshui itself is a dug canal, especially a man-made pool. It is a question of whether the water army that has not experienced wind and waves can really fight.

Therefore, although the Xiaoxiang Army was defeated by Shi Congyun, they were still full of confidence in their field of expertise, and they were extremely eager to perform in order to wash away the shame of losing to the imperial army.

"Will the envoys send troops?"

"How do I know, you ask me who I ask, I don't always make roundworms in my stomach..."

"If you want me to say wait a fart, just kill him!"

"You still don't believe me when you say you're stupid. It's not as simple as you think. What should I say if I kill you directly and go to the official's house?"

"If we defeat the bandits of the Southern Han Dynasty, the officials will still blame us!"

"You don't understand, this is called... called..."

"Call your mother! Stop talking nonsense about Cuoda, I only know how to fight!"

"I don't understand shit, I don't understand anything..."

"........"

There was chaos outside the big tent, everyone was talking to each other, making a fuss, each talking about their own, making a fuss, Yin Chongke looked at it and was very anxious.

In his opinion, there is so much to think about. At this juncture, you must not hesitate, even if you hesitate, you have to respond, at least transfer the army to Hengzhou, and no matter what the bandit soldiers do, they can send troops from Hengzhou. Quick response.

As for the suspicion of the officials, he never thought about it. In his opinion, he must either make meritorious deeds or make a big deal out of it. There is nothing to think about.

His intuition also felt that the official family would not know it. The official family has fought so many battles. How could they be confused about such a big matter? He felt that Pan Mei was good at everything. There is also a trick in military training, that is, reading too much and thinking complicatedly, and all scholars have such problems.

Amidst the discussion among the people, the time passed by every minute and every second. After a while, the soldiers on the south side began to return to the camp one after another. After the drill was over, the horns were blown in the camp. The hazy and dreamy shadow gradually quieted down the entire camp.

The surroundings became quiet, but the people waiting outside the large tent of the Chinese army became anxious instead.

Many people paced back and forth anxiously, causing dissatisfaction from the surrounding people, and then someone scolded: "Can I not leave, I am upset!"

"Grandpa likes to go, I want you to take care of it!"

"..."

You speak to me, and time passes slowly like this.
