Long live the general

Junchen Lan led the army to confront the border guards under the city gate again. Huo Yi stood on the city wall, and Tao Jiamu next to him pointed at Junchen Lan and said, "This kid is Junchen Lan, and he is Junchen Shanyu. youngest son."

Huo Yi looked at Junchen Lan, who was wearing a long plush gown and a heavy brocade hat, and his arm muscles were very obvious.As a nomadic tribe, they grew up eating meat and drinking milk, and they were extremely tall and strong.

The man next to Junchen Lan was smaller, in his 40s, with dimples on his face, a heavy bow behind his back, and a short knife in his hand.

Hu Yanqie, he knew this person.

Tao Jiamu said in a low voice: "The military minister Shanyu had four sons. The eldest son and the second son died in the war one after another. The third son was inferior to the military minister, and the youngest son was him. The military minister Lan participated in the battle when he was young. He has experience in siege. Not enough, but he is vicious and vicious, and he once slaughtered a city in the Little Qiang Kingdom."

Huo Yi asked: "Civilian?"

Tao Jiamu said: "Civilians and soldiers."

kill surrender.

Huo Yi hummed lightly, people like Junchen Lan and Hu Yanqieche together, they are all the same.

Lan, the military officer under the city, had already started to yell. He couldn't speak Da Viet well, so his tone of voice was very weird.

According to what Hu Yanqieche said, he insulted Huo Yi as a coward, saying that he was afraid of the big Hu cavalry so he dared not go out to fight in the city, and that he abandoned the people outside the city, and some people in the city were panicked for a while.

Huo Yi remained unmoved, the city gates were closed tightly, and he concentrated on arranging and arranging all aspects of defense, dispatching supplies and soldiers. As long as the Huns cavalry dared to take a step forward, arrows would fly past like rain.

The military officer Lan said loudly: "I heard that the Huo family had an eldest son who was also the governor of Xihe County back then. Unfortunately, he was not my opponent. He was tied behind a horse, dragged for several miles and died of exhaustion. His body was taken by the wild Wolves and vultures ate, their bones rotted in the desert, and they couldn't go home until they died. Huo Yi, you are now sitting in the position of Xihe County Sheriff. Facing your enemies, you don't even dare to avenge your brother. Is it true that Da Yue is so brave? Mice!"

The other Huns also laughed.

After he finished speaking, the soldiers at the city gate were all furious, wishing to go down to fight the Huns immediately, but because Huo Yi didn't give an order, they froze, but everyone stared down angrily, gnashing their teeth, furious.

Tao Jiamu only felt that the surrounding air suddenly tensed up, making it difficult to breathe.He turned his head to look at Huo Yi, Huo Yi looked at Shan Yu's son with serious eyes, his face was expressionless, except that he was holding a heavy bow in his hand, and his knuckles were turning white.

When Junchen Lan talked about Huo Xin's death, Huo Yi's cheeks became cold.

"When Huo Xin died, he still had a beautiful wife and lovely daughter. I don't know if your sister-in-law and niece are doing well now." Seeing this, the military official Lan said loudly: "I heard that your sister-in-law is still a beauty. Although I'm a bit older, I don't mind helping take care of her..."

Before he finished speaking, Huo Yi moved.

The Xihe County Guard held a longbow, the bow was like a crescent moon, a black arrow feather rested on the string, three fingers hooked the string, and the cold arrow feather was close to the cheek.

He aimed at Junchen Lan.

The arrow was like a shooting star white feather, passing by with a crisp sound.

Military minister Lan was startled suddenly, the moment the arrow shot out of his hand, he judged that he could not dodge the arrow!Although Junchen Lan kept clamoring, she was very clear-headed, paying attention to Huo Yi's every move.He didn't have time to draw the knife, so he raised his arm to block it in front of him.The arrow sank into the palm of his hand, making a teeth-piercing sound, and then the remaining strength was still there. It wiped his face and plunged deep into the yellow sand. Even his horse was dragged back two steps by the force.

Junchen Lan let out a muffled snort, deeply shocked by the strength of the arrow.If he hadn't stretched out his hand to block that blow just now, the arrow would have penetrated deep into his eye socket and penetrated his skull.

There was a huge blood hole in his palm, Junchen Lan pinched his palm and looked at Huo Yi coldly.

Huo Yi hit an arrow again, the sound was not loud, but it was heard clearly in his ears.

"Back then, my elder brother shot Zuo Xianwang alone, and shot through the abdomen of the military official Shanyu. If he had deviated two inches further, it would not be your yellow-haired boy who shouted so loudly."

The military official Lan screamed, and immediately dozens of Hun soldiers stood in front of him and picked up the shields on their arms.Junchen Lan felt a little relieved, but he didn't hesitate at all when he saw Huo Yi's hand.

The bowstring was stretched straight, and this time Huo Yi aimed at Jun Chen Lan's chest.

The arrow shot out sharply, and even penetrated the shield formation in front. The military official Lan's face was pale, Hu Yan and the car hit the arrow with a knife, and the tiger's mouth split open in an instant, and the broken knife came out, but the arrow still hit the army. Chen Lan's abdomen was in the same position as before.

Military minister Lan was in severe pain, but he didn't make any sound. He held the rein tightly with his fingers, barely keeping himself from falling down.

After this battle, military minister Lan led the Xiongnu to retreat temporarily.

A few days later, Xihebian County was getting colder and colder, and the supplies brought by Junchen Lan were not enough.He led the army to go to the suburbs to rob everywhere, ran around, but found nothing, and could only burn a few villages to relieve his hatred.After autumn came, Huo Yi ordered all residents outside the city to move into the city with food and supplies.He grasped the timing of the Xiongnu's attack extremely accurately, so the residents of Xihebian County had almost no losses in the past eight years.

Army minister Lan finally left with the Xiongnu soldiers.

He only treated the injuries on his body briefly before, but now he left long and thick scars.The right hand could not hold the knife at all, Hu Yan and Che did not comfort him, but handed him the arrow that pierced his body.

Military minister Lan said word by word: "If this revenge is not avenged, my military minister Lan swears not to be a human being."

Sooner or later, he will return this arrow to Huo Yi.

West Riverside welcomes winter.

The Huns retreated, and Xihebian County could be stable for a while, but this period of time must not be long.The Xiongnu attacked for a whole month, and there were still various follow-up matters to be dealt with. When Huo Yi was too busy to turn his head, Tao Jiamu told Huo Yi that Qiu Hongguang had woken up.

Huo Yi thought of the scout captain who didn't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth. Qiu Hongguang began to serve last year. According to the regulations of Dai Viet's "Vietnamese Military Officials Law", men serve at 21 years old, and Qiu Hongguang should be 22 this year.

Huo Yi remembered that when he was 22 years old, he had already become the governor of Xihe County, and was scolded by the Huns and his colleagues every day for shrinking his head.

He actually doesn't care what his colleagues and enemies say about him, but when it reaches the ears of the Holy Majesty, those evaluations are even more subtle.If he wanted to avenge his elder brother, shut up some people's mouths, and gain a good reputation in front of the Holy Master...he should go out of the city to fight, just like Li Yi, the governor of Yuanfang County.

But the battlefield is more than a battlefield.

Tao Jiamu took him to see Qiu Hongguang, and accidentally glanced at Huo Yi's face, and said, "You are almost the same as Qiu Hongguang."

Huo Yi waved his hand: "I've been busy recently."

Busy fighting, even more busy after fighting.He was still immersed in writing the battle report last night, and he was dizzy.

And during the confrontation with the Xiongnu, he stood on the city wall to dispatch troops every day, and those soldiers could be rotated, but he was the only county guard.

"You are not busy any day." Tao Jiamu shook his head and sighed: "Other county guards are in charge of the local power. Every day, they embrace warm and fragrant nephrites, and drink with noble gentry. How can you be like this?"

Huo Yi said wearily: "There is no such thing as warm and fragrant soft jade in Xihebian County." Those landlords and gentry avoided Huo Yi, for fear that he would come to the door.

"You should take a rest once in a while." Tao Jiamu could only say this: "In half a year, you will return to Beijing to report on your work. When the time comes, my aunt will definitely be worried when she sees you like this..."

Huo Yi heard him mention his mother, rubbed his face, and tried to pull out a smile.

He met Qiu Hongguang with this forced smile.When Qiu Hongguang was lying under the city wall, he was covered in arrows, like a hedgehog.Now lying on the wooden board, it is the same as dried salted fish.

But people can still move.

Huo Yi drove Qiu Hongguang, who was still wrapped in cloth strips, to the school field. He and his nine scouts knelt on the ground. Behind them were the guards who were training. Their eyes couldn't help looking at the scout team.

Qiu Hongguang lowered his head, his solid muscles were exposed to the cold air, and the lines from his shoulders to his waist were extremely smooth, which contained great strength.

Although he knelt here, he was not convinced.

Huo Yi's voice became colder in the cold winter, and he said: "In the first month of joining the army, you all learned orders and prohibitions. If you don't even remember the order to attack and retreat, then there is no need to stay here."

The scouts were all startled, and Dadongong let out a cold sweat, only Qiu Hongguang said sharply: "I've never seen an order to attack, and I really don't remember it."

After finishing speaking, he waited for Huo Yi to get angry.

Qiu Hongguang came to Xihebian County just to kill the enemy and make meritorious service, otherwise, in his capacity, there would be no need to serve at all.However, after coming to Xihebian County, Huo Yi's technique of defending the city made him extremely dissatisfied.

His knife is about to rust.

Huo Yi was not angry. He knew that some soldiers were dissatisfied with him, but this dissatisfaction would not be expressed.

Just like he is dissatisfied with the court, but the work that should be done is still done, and those guards at least know what is forbidden.

Huo Yi said: "You raise your head."

Qiu Hongguang raised his chin, and the corners of his eyes were still a little red. The cold made the pain more severe. He knelt on the ground, already feeling the tingling pain in his legs.

Huo Yi said: "According to what you said, when it comes to the battlefield, it's better for everyone to do what they want."

Qiu Hongguang stiffened his neck and did not speak.

"A military camp is such a place. If you want to do whatever you want, you might as well go home." Huo Yi said, "Even if you use the name of Young Master Qiu, I dare not torture Young Master Qiu."

Qiu Hongguang's eyes widened when he heard what he said, not knowing when he revealed his identity.

He looked at Huo Yi in surprise, but Huo Yi still had no expression on his face.His skin is porcelain white, his face and eyelids are thin, and he looks especially cold in this white winter.It was only at this time that Qiu Hongguang noticed that Huo Yi was actually very handsome, because his facial features were particularly distinctive, his nose was straight, and the corners of his eyes and brows were like a neat painting. He didn't look very old.

Qiu Hongguang suddenly thought, I heard that Huo Yi, the second son of the Huo family, has guarded Xihebian County for eight years, but Huo Yi is younger than he imagined.

The author has something to say:

Come on, come on, guess how old our general is now.

Guess the prize!
