Asking hexagram 20 taels

(forty)

"Only 600 people were recruited? It seems that the emperor of Gubei City didn't cover up the sky with one hand as he imagined..." The captain received the roster handed over by his subordinates, flipped through it roughly, rubbed his chin with his hand and said.

"Gubei City is not big in the first place, and the frontier army recruited young and middle-aged people all over the place before. Now the main recruit of the new city cannot be found. Look at these people in the roster," said a person leaning over, also I looked at the roster together with him, and even opened it and pointed, "This person is famous for being lazy, and this kind of person has been recruited. It seems that this city lord really has nothing to do."

The captain pushed him away in disgust, and glanced at him: "You, like me, have only been here for less than half a month, how come you are so familiar with the situation in the city?"

The person who came was Fang Qianhu, the leader of the imperial court's [-] government troops, and he was well-known, even the captain of the Yuan family's army knew his name like thunder.It's just that this reputation is not a good reputation, but a flower name.

When Fang Qianhu was in the customs, he was famous outside, and he didn't know how many confidante, but when he walked into a restaurant in the world, there was no other woman that Fang Qianhu didn't know.But Fang Qianhu's flair is not indecent, girls are willing to make fun of a handsome young man who is good at having fun, and there are not many girls who secretly promise Fang Qianhu that he will never pick up customers again.

"Of course the girls in the city told me." Fang Qianhu raised her eyebrows triumphantly, bumped the captain with her elbow, and smiled ambiguously at him.

"Are you going to hook up with the little girl in the city again?" The captain frowned and took a step back.

"How can this be called hooking up! Why don't we help others by picking up water in Gubei City? What's wrong with someone telling me a few gossips?" Fang Qianhu yelled, seeing what he meant, This is really a major event that benefits the country and the people.

"Okay, okay, can't you be good?" The captain was too lazy to argue with him about this one, two, three, four, and asked with his hands open, "Send this to the general?"

"This trivial matter must be handed over to the general. You, the school lieutenant, are not the second-in-command, are you?"

"Then what do you say?"

"I have an idea, don't say I'm embarrassing General Yuan, our government army is not with you!" Fang Qianhu smiled maliciously, "Let's go, let's pick and choose first."

These more than 600 people were summoned to one place by them, allowing them to criticize themselves like chickens, and because they took the money of the city lord, they didn't even dare to show their pride.

"This," Fang Qianhu pointed to a young boy in front of him and said, "Look at this, isn't it strong?"

The captain circled around the kid and nodded: "Not bad."

Fang Qianhu took the roster and ticked it, and waved his hand: "Look for the Houtou government army, oh, no, the Yuan family army is going to train together."

"Okay." The young man gritted his teeth, rubbed the back of his head, and smiled innocently.

"This is not bad..."

"This doesn't work, just stand over there."

Just picking and picking like this, I picked out more than 400 people who needed to be used, and the remaining 100 or so were all in the school grounds.These are the ones picked out by the school captain and Fang Qianhu who have poor health or character, and are not suitable for going to the battlefield anyway.

"For the 170 people present, Fang Qianhu and I have a very important task to entrust to you all!" The soldiers under General Yuan are our brothers!"

What men are most afraid of is the word "brother". They put knives in both sides of the brother, paint the ground for the brother, and can do anything when the blood comes up.The captain was used to mobilizing and inspiring people before the war. After a few words, the more than 100 people were excited and wished they could roll up their sleeves and go to the battlefield on the spot.

Fang Qianhu poked the captain in the back and muttered: "Yes, no wonder you Yuan Jiajun are so united..."

The captain ignored him, and continued to raise his arms, urging them with bursting veins: "For the country, for victory, we are obliged to!"

"For victory!"

"For victory!"

More than 100 people in Xiaochangshan immediately shouted slogans, and the voice was loud.

"But—" the captain changed the subject and made a dejected look, "But Gubei City is heartbreaking! Our General Yuan led the soldiers to fight on the front line, and we threw our heads and blood on the front line, but Gu What about the Lord of the North City? He only knows how to enjoy! Can we tolerate him?"

"cannot!"

"Can we get him to be comfortable by himself?"

"cannot!"

"Shall we knock him down?"

"want!"

"Shall we fence off his house?"

"want!"

"Uh... what?" The person who was fooled into shouting slogans by the school lieutenant finally realized it. They seemed to have shouted something terrible just now.

The lord of Gubei City is the leader of Gubei City, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, he is the emperor of Gubei City.Besieged Lord's Mansion?Just rely on them?

"What's the matter? Don't be afraid." Fang Qianhu came up to take over the position of the captain. "You are good candidates selected by me and the captain. I believe that everyone will be able to successfully complete the task. When the time comes to celebrate, you must put your name in the Read it in front of the whole army."

"Yeah, let's besiege the city lord's mansion together. Just based on the city lord's appearance, what can he do to everyone? You know, this means that we don't have to go to the battlefield and don't have to work hard, but it can also restrict the city lord and ensure the safety of our General Yuan." Great thing."

"It seems possible..."

"Yeah, that's right, I don't want to die on the battlefield."

More than 100 people persuaded each other and actually settled the matter.And as soon as he heard that there were no extra armaments in the camp of Gubei City, he immediately decided to pick up a hoe and shovel from home, and surrounded the City Lord's Mansion that day, not even a bird flew in.

"Okay, boy, this move not only helped us get rid of the city lord, but also sent away this group of people who came to steal the army's salary. It's a good way!" The school captain gave Fang Qianhu a thumbs up. The girls all like Fang Qianhu, so I have to learn a little bit myself.

Back in the middle of the camp, Yuan Xiao's tent is there.

He just came back from outside the city because he received a secret letter.

It was said to be a secret letter, but it was not really a secret. After all, it was sent by a falcon under the watchful eyes of thousands of people. Yuan Xiao opened it and read it on the spot, but the content of the letter made him feel a little nervous. Bring the troops back to camp.

"General, is it the order from the emperor?" the captain asked tentatively.

"No," Yuan Xiao replied, the captain just breathed a sigh of relief, and the next moment Yuan Xiao's answer made him heave a sigh of relief, "It's a letter from the little prince Dawan."

The letter didn't say anything clearly, it only said that Yuan Jiajun was asked to withdraw from Gubei City.

"Is this little prince of Dawan dreaming? Is there any reason for us to retreat when General Yuan arrives?"

Nothing was said in the letter, but everything was said.Because the signature on his letter was stamped with two stamps, a red "blessing" and a black "disaster".

Good luck!

And it's really a blessing and a curse!

Yuan Xiaozhi was so sure because he and Tang Yuan had seen this real blessing and misfortune together at that time, and he clearly remembered what Tang Yuan had said.

"Look here, this crack is from the character of blessing to the character of disaster. This is said to be the reason why the first emperor lost his temper and threw it down. But it also coincides with the meaning of this blessing and disaster. Fu, misfortune is where blessings rest."

The two seals on this letter happen to have a crack, which is easy to miss if you don't look carefully, and because of this, it is even more impossible for these two seals to be forged.

Now that the little prince of Dawan is holding the badge of fortune and misfortune, what about Tang Yuan? How is Tang Yuan doing now?Yuan Xiao knew that all Tang Yuan's plans were entrusted to this Badge of Fortune and Misfortune, and Tang Yuan would not have given up the Badge of Fortune and Misfortune if it were not a very critical situation.

He was really anxious, but he was at the border right now, not to mention going back to find him, he didn't even dare to take his eyes off the horizon for a moment.Since Dawan made the request to withdraw the troops, it proved that they were afraid of him, that's why they couldn't retreat.

"Captain, have we brought our carrier pigeon?"

"Bring it, bring it, the one raised by the young master of the Tang family, it's clever, and it flew over with our army."

"Bring him here and deliver a letter for me. Pigeons know people, and they will find Tang Yuan. ——I don't know where he is now..."

Without further ado, Yuan Xiao immediately brushed his ink and picked up his pen, and brought up the story of the little prince Dawan and Fu Fuzhang. At the end, he thought about it and thought about it, and he said, "When it's cold, you need to wear more clothes. If not, it’s good to go to the south of the Yangtze River to escape for a while. When I come back in the spring, I will take you to Yaoyue Tower to drink their peach blossom wine.”

"Yuan Jiajun can't retreat, retreating is equivalent to handing over Gubei City to Dawan." Yuan Xiao nodded the table, "Tell Yuan Jiajun to speed up patrols, I suspect that Dawan will make another plan if one plan fails, and another plan will be made. Actions."

"General..." The lieutenant rubbed his nose and opened his mouth embarrassedly, "There are more than 400 people sent over from the City Lord's Mansion..."

"Four hundred? I remember, shouldn't it be eight hundred?"

"Actually, 400 people were sent over. The city lord's mansion said there were only [-] people. Later, Fang Qianhu and I picked again, and only [-] people were selected."

"What about the rest of them?"

The captain rubbed his nose: "I asked them to besiege the City Lord's Mansion."

"what?"

"What?" The city lord stood up abruptly, almost breaking the teacup.

The servant was panting: "A group of people surrounded our City Lord's Mansion."

"Stay away, stay away!" The city lord can hear the people outside the city lord's mansion yelling at the passers-by through the wall, "Don't hurt everyone, the city lord's mansion is not allowed to leave or enter in the past few days .”

The city lord looked at the empty house that had been moved by people, and the appearance that a bird could not fly in the sky outside the yard, tears were about to fall from his eyes.Why is this Yuan Jiajun different from the one in the legend?
