The General Is As Urgent As Law

ten days later.

It will be Lixia in a few days, and the surrounding trees are showing a mature green color, and the cicadas on the trees seem to be tireless, always singing non-stop.

More than 400 people, 400 on horseback and [-] on foot, formed a long team and set off from Xiangcheng to Qianzhou.

Just north of Xiangcheng is Junzhou. There is a tall and straight mountain range on the border of Junzhou. Since ancient times, it has been a natural barrier between Xuan Kingdom and the barbarians in the north. Qin Mu was stationed, while Xue Changfeng's men were all stationed at the border of Qianzhou, Qianyu.

After Xue Changfeng returned with his troops, Xue Ziqin had solved the crisis at Qinguan. It was inconvenient for the army to stay on the border of Xiangcheng, so Xue Changfeng sent them back to Qianyu early on.

The way they are going to Qianyu this time is at the junction of Junzhou and Qianzhou. There is a vertical mountain range from west to east here, which needs to be detoured.Due to the much slower walking speed, Xue Ziqin and the others finally reached this mountain range, Yanling Mountain, after ten days had passed.

He naturally obeyed Xue Changfeng's order, regardless of whether the imperial court issued an order for him to go to the border gate, he just followed Xue Changfeng's words, and set off after staying in Xiangcheng for less than three days.

In short, it is impossible for Xue Changfeng to harm him.

"Did you know that those who ride horses and those who walk are fundamentally different in status." Wei Lin said on horseback.After so many days of cultivation in Xiangcheng, he is completely fine.Most of the new flesh from the wound on the back has grown, and now I can run, jump and fight.

"What's the difference?" Jiang also casually chatted with him.

The two of them were at the forefront of the team, following Xue Ziqin and other generals.

"Look at Jia Da Jia Er," Wei Lin said, turning around to look. Although it was a little far away, he could still see Jia Da Jia Er and Zhao Zhinan in the infantry formation, "Obviously we are more familiar with General Xue." , so the treatment is better."

"What fallacies, don't old Chinese doctors also walk?" Jiang Ye didn't even look back. In this blue sky and white day, the sun was shining through the gaps between the leaves, and it was a bit dazzling. Jiang also squinted his eyes slightly, feeling uncomfortable .He didn't quite understand why Wei Lin's eyes were so big, but he didn't feel afraid of light at all.

Wei Lin turned his head, looked at Jiang Ye and asked, "How about your brother?"

"What else can I do, accept it."

"Tsk tsk, a 15-year-old boy accepts a 28-year-old young woman, this plot is like storytelling!"

"I think you are telling a story right now." Jiang Ye said mercilessly.

"Your parents didn't keep you?"

"It's useless to stay." Jiang Ye said and remembered the hesitant expressions of his parents when they left home, but Jiang Mian, when Jiang Ye left, that bastard Jiang Mian didn't know where he was, and he didn't come to see him off. .

"In the end, I didn't see what the princess looks like, alas." Wei Lin sighed regretfully.They didn't stay in Xue's residence for long. Not long after the assassin incident, Guo Linchong and Min Qiu took Wei Lin back to the outskirts of the city, saying that it was General Xue's intention.Jiang Ye stayed at home until the day he left.Thinking of this, Wei Lin asked Jiang Ye again: "Have you seen it?"

"I'm not interested." Jiang also said lightly.

"Then what are you interested in?"

"I'm interested in how to shut you up."

When Wei Lin heard this, he really shut up.The large army was marching, and he didn't want to fight, especially because he was so close to several generals. If Xue Ziqin was affected, he might be hanged on a tree and beaten.

After walking for a while, he looked up, and he could see Yanling Mountain not far away. Wei Lin guessed that it was almost noon, so he said aloud, "General, do you want to rest at Yanling Mountain for a while?"

"Huh?" Xue Ziqin was on the horse, heard Wei Lin's voice, and asked without looking back.

The few of their leading generals are all very experienced, or in other words, except for Wei Linjiangye and the few remaining recruits who survived, everyone is very experienced.During this kind of march, they can not speak without speaking, and save energy as much as possible.Therefore, Wei Lin's noise along the way not only disturbed Jiang Ye, but also became a tool for people nearby to relieve boredom.So Xue Ziqin heard Wei Lin's question immediately.

"It's almost noon. If we're not in a hurry, why don't we take a break at Yanling Mountain." Wei Lin said, thought for a while, and added, "Shall I buy some wild game for the general?"

These words really hit Xue Ziqin's heart.There is a special kind of bird near Yanling Mountain, called Snow Chicken. Although it is called a chicken, it can fly and climb trees.He was lucky enough to eat it once, and the meat was delicious, fat but not greasy, and the whole pot of soup was milky white and very delicious after being simmered slowly over low heat.I just don’t know if it’s good to bake or not.

Xue Ziqin thought for a moment, then turned around and said, "Yes."

Sure enough, when they reached the foot of Yanling Mountain, Xue Ziqin raised his hand, and the whole army stopped, and Xue Ziqin shouted: "The whole army rests for an hour!"

Guo Linchong immediately turned his horse around, ran and repeated what Xue Ziqin said just now: "The whole army rests for an hour!"

During the past few days, the journey was full of dry food. Except for the rest at night, they had been marching all the time. Everyone relaxed when they heard the rest.

Wei Lin got off the horse, and was about to chat with Jia Da and Jia Er, but before he could walk a few steps, Xue Ziqin brought him back again: "Where are you going?"

"Hey, of course I...of course I'm going to buy some game for the general to eat." Wei Lin smiled all over his face, and he didn't blink his eyes when he told a lie.

Xue Ziqin nodded in satisfaction, and then pointed out: "You go over there. There is a white-feathered chicken in Yanling Mountain. It has no comb. It's easy to recognize. You can get two."

"Will it fly?"

"Yes, so you have to shoot it down." Xue Ziqin said, taking the bow and arrow from Wei Lin's horse beside him and throwing it to Wei Lin.

Wei Lin took the bow and arrow and said with a sad face, "General, I'm not good at archery."

"Then you can sleep in the mountains and feed the wolves, and you don't have to come back."

"what?"

"Ah what, hurry up!" Xue Ziqin didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so he kicked Wei Lin's leg.Wei Lin eats

Shrinking to the side in pain, he said with a bitter face: "General, I will take off my clothes and go."

"Hunting and undressing, what's your habit?"

"No!" Wei Lin raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, "I'm afraid of the heat, and it's getting hot in this weather, so I'll take off the armor before going."

"Anyway, I haven't seen a chicken in half an hour, so I don't want to see your face again!"

"Obey!" Wei Lin said, bouncing aside and began to take off his armor.

Jiang Ye wanted to follow, but Xue Ziqin stretched out his hand to stop him, and said, "Arrange someone to collect firewood and make a fire, why are you sticking with that bastard all day long?"

Jiang could only nod obediently: "Yes!"

"Min Qiu!"

"exist!"

"Go and kill two rabbits to eat."

"Didn't Wei Lin go?"

"Let you go and go!"

Min Qiu originally thought that with the addition of Wei Lin and Jiang Ye as Xue Ziqin's right-hand men, he could finally be a well-known lieutenant general, and he would not have to do these things as a cook, but he never thought that once Xue Ziqin wanted to employ someone, Still call yourself.

"Hey, let's go." Min Qiu, who was already tired of resisting, sighed, and before Xue Ziqin realized the meaning contained in this sigh, he hurriedly left with Jiang Ye.

Zhou Xiao led his horse and Xue Ziqin's white willow, and watched the horse graze on the side of the road.After marching all the way, he was also a little tired. Xue Ziqin picked up the water bottle and walked over to drink water, talking to him: "Drink water?"

"Drink it."

"You said that the imperial court must know that we are here now. Although the old man has cleared the checkpoints along the way, it is still such a big movement after all, right?"

Zhou Xiao nodded, reached out to pick up some grass, passed it to the horse's mouth, and nodded while feeding the horse: "I'm afraid the general didn't want to hide it and let you go quietly."

"Oh? But the court didn't order me to take the old man's place."

"But it's impossible for the Northern Army to have no leader."

Xue Ziqin put down the kettle, put the lid on it, looked at Zhou Xiao seriously and said, "You have been in the northern army for many years, so it stands to reason that there is no war now, and your presence there is enough."

"Ziqin, the general is going along with the flow to help you out, can't you see that?"

"I can see it, but I'm just worried about the consequences."

"You are in your position, so you don't know what's going on." Zhou Xiao said, "The Xue family has a deep foundation. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Xue family is in control of some things. Since the general asked you to come, there must be a way to let the emperor come and go." Furthermore, the assassins can enter the Xue residence to assassinate the general. Such an urgent situation must be to completely weaken the power of the Xue family before the crown prince is established. It may not be a good thing for the general to stay in the capital this time. "

"What's the use of the old man staying in the king alone?"

"Don't worry, there can't be no one around the general, but you and I can't see it, so the court can't see it either." Zhou Xiao laughed mysteriously, then raised his hand and patted Xue Ziqin's shoulder, Reassure him.

After talking for a long time, Xue Ziqin still didn't understand the key point. He was always slow to realize these things. Since Zhou Xiao said so, then he just needs to go to the border with peace of mind.

Jiang also went to check on Jia Da's condition.Under Zhong Yi's medical skills, this guy with astonishing vitality is almost healed, and he quarreled with Jia Er vigorously all day long, and the three of them went to collect firewood together.Jiang Ye didn't talk much, but Jia talked a lot. After a lot of things before, the grudge between Jia Dajia and Jiang Ye had disappeared without a trace.

"Brother Jiang is healed?" Jia Da asked.

"As good as it gets."

Jia Da bent down and began to pick up firewood, talking without saying a word while picking up: "Brother Jiang thought of all the schemes in Qinguan at that time, right?"

"No, it's all the general's idea!"

"Don't be modest, I actually heard something quietly."

"Brother, that's what I heard!" Jia Er popped up and said.

"Go, go, don't join in the fun!" Jia Da waved his hands impatiently, and then he said, "I heard from Jia Er that you still went to rescue Brother Wei?"

"Hmm...um." Jiang Ye was answering when he suddenly heard rustling sounds behind him, and he turned his head immediately, only to see the grass shaking for a while, as if something had rushed out.

"Who?!" Jiang also shouted.

When Jia Da and Jia Er heard his voice, they also looked over there.

Unfortunately, after watching for a long time, nothing appeared.Jia Er whispered, "Could it be a wild rabbit?"

"Maybe." Jiang Ye looked suspiciously at a few places next to him, but there was really nothing there, thinking that maybe it was a living thing in the forest, so he stopped thinking about it.

Picking up firewood was very fast, and when they found enough, Jiang took the two of them to Xue Ziqin's side to live.Jia Da volunteered to take over the dirty job of lying on the ground and blowing air. Jiang also happened to save trouble, so he carefully set up the firewood he had just picked up, and took out the fire pocket to light it.

The fire was built very quickly, and Min Qiu also came back after a while, fulfilling Xue Ziqin's entrustment, beat a few wild rabbits and held them in his hand.

Xue Ziqin picked a few people and ordered them to deal with the rabbits.There is no water source here, so it is impossible to pluck the rabbit, wash it, and then roast it. We can only peel the skin, hollow out the internal organs and drain all the blood. This is a simple treatment.

Who knew that after the rabbit was processed and roasted on the fire, Wei Lin hadn't come back yet.Xue Ziqin is not in a hurry, it is worth looking forward to eating rabbits in front of him.Quite a few soldiers looked at the scent, all of them were greedy, Xue Ziqin frowned, and scolded them: "Go, go, go and beat yourself if you want to eat, don't be greedy for me!"

Min Qiu was a little speechless by the side, but he was very aggrieved, and timidly reminded in a low voice: "General, I did this."

"Then share your legs later."
