Minister

18【Six Years of Jiankang】

In fact, it was far less urgent than what Xu Yue said. Du Qihuan was naturally prepared for the march and urged Wei Chi to come, just to avenge this morning.

"Why are you here so late? I've drank several bowls of tea."

"Master Wei has a stomachache recently, no, he squatted in a pit before coming here!" Xu Yue sat back at his desk.Wang Yunyi scolded enough civil servants, and now he has gone to the former army to trouble Xue Yi, there are only two or three clerks and a few of their staff officers left in the big tent, everyone is naturally a lot more presumptuous.

Wei Chi blushed a little: "Isn't the officer here now..."

Du Qihuan put down the tea in his hand, patted Wei Chi on the shoulder, and asked Xu Yue, "Are you sure you can leave tomorrow?"

Xu Yue nodded.

"Then let's go!" Du Qihuan led Wei Chi out of the tent.

Walking to the edge of the camp, Wei Chifang could clearly see that there were many large carts outside the central army, all of them were covered tightly with tarpaulins, and the escorting soldiers were familiar, but they were those who often walked around in Wang Yunyi's tent .

Du Qihuan stepped forward and lifted some oilcloth slightly: "Tomorrow you and I will work together, now you watch carefully, I will teach you how to use it."

In the early morning of the seventh day of May, the thick fog that had permeated the area for two days finally began to disperse. Wang Yunyi breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the entire army to stand by.

At this time, the army had entered the hinterland of the Ikezhao Mountains, and after a few days to the north, they could reach the plain, which was the famous Bayantala.If you go west, you can reach Fengyi Pass, an important pass in Daqi. Apart from crossing the Suijiang River, Fengyi Pass and Yulong Pass in the north are the only two ways to return to Qi.Between the two passes is the towering Chidu Mountain. The two passes are not far away but are separated by this mountain, making it difficult to march.Going west after passing Yifeng Pass, and heading south from Jiaxing City, you will find Fengyang, a heavy city in the north, and a few hundred miles west of Fengyang is the capital city.It's a pity that Jiaxing City and Fengyang City are located on the plains. Although they are rich, they are not important places for military strategists. To defend the Central Plains, they must rely on Fengyi Pass.Therefore, although Fengyi is small, it is an important pass as famous as Yulong Pass and Beiku Pass.The Yulong Pass in the north of it is on the left side of Chidu Mountain and on the right side of the desert permafrost. After leaving the pass, there is a plain, which can go directly along the desert to Bayantala, the fiefdom of Wotuolei.Apart from this road, there is another road leading to Bayan Tala - cross the Yijiang River, enter Ikezhao, go north and leave the mountain to reach it.In other words, once the Qi army entered the Ikezhao Mountains, they could only go to Bayantala except to return to Fengyiguan.

This is why King Monan is at ease and Saul Hahan is anxious.

Hearing that the Qi army was going to pull out the camp, Saul Hahan's heart tightened. After packing up his things, he wanted to ask Wei Chi about what happened.While fiddling with the iron lock in his hand, he saw Ning Yuan walking over from a distance.

"General Wang told you to go! You have to be honest with me."

Hearing Wang Yunyi's name, Saul Hahan was startled, but Ning Yuan couldn't tolerate her dawdling, and hurriedly took her away.At this time, Saul Hahan really regretted not listening to Wei Chi's words. If he could really change the guard, there would be someone who could report the letter. What should he do now that he is being urged so urgently?He sneaked a look over at Wei Chi, only to see Wei Chi's thick-eyed little schoolboy packing up his things obediently without even looking this way.Sigh, whatever!If I really can't escape this catastrophe, it proves that I, Saul Hahan, is nothing more than that!Looked up at the gradually clearing sky——Monan, Monan, facing such a powerful enemy, but God bless you!

Wang Yunyi saw that Ning Yuan had brought the woman in purple, so he put down the document in his hand and motioned for the woman to take the seat.Saul Hahan gave a slight salute, and was not humble, but just sat down, looking at Wang Yunyi openly.

Wang Yunyi waved at Ning Yuan: "You go and do your work." He turned around and dismissed the documents in the tent, and finally ordered the little school to guard the tent door and not let anyone in without his order.The little principal snorted and backed out.

"His Royal Highness, I was negligent a few days ago."

"General Wang is too polite." Saul Hahan slowly took a sip of the tea in his hand.

It seems that this person's eyes are really poisonous, and he can detect clues from the only few sides he sees.The people who traveled with him were no longer alive, and Wei Chi and the others left in a hurry that day without bringing out any tokens, but he was able to find out his identity within a few days, which is really amazing!The tea in his hand is Daqi's unique boutique - Mengshan Crane Neck, which should be the best tea Wang Yunyi can produce.Thinking about Wei Chi's temptation to himself, he felt that there might be a turning point in this conversation.

"His Royal Highness, how is King Monan doing?"

"General King Lao is thinking about it."

Wang Yunyi stroked his beard and said with a smile, "How is Lord Wo Tuolei?"

This Saul Hahan, King Monan's beloved younger sister, stayed in the capital all year round and lived a luxurious life.There are many rumors about her, but the most important one comes from King Monan's admiration for her.This charming woman not only made many aristocratic youths in Ulanqab fall under her pomegranate skirt, but also confused her brother.Now that Monan is facing a big enemy, Ulanqab should be the safest place, but she left the capital and hurried to Bayantala... It seems that the information in the secret report is true, the person who is ruthless in the population of Monan The God of War must have some sort of agreement with her.

Saul Hahan also smiled back: "I heard that we are fighting with His Royal Highness King Qin of your country."

"That's right." Wang Yunyi stood up and said, "It's all due to the arrangement of His Royal Highness the King of your country that Lord Wo Tuolei was beaten so badly!"

Sol Hahan's heart turned cold. It seems that what King Monan said that day is indeed true... King Monan is willing to tell himself that he trusts himself to stand on his side, and hopes that she can do her best to appease the dissatisfied nobles .

"It seems that General Wang has the chance to win?"

"Princess, I have something to go out for a walk." Wang Yunyi tapped the table lightly with his hand, and his eyes fell on the document at hand.

When Wang Yunyi walked out of the military tent, Saul Hahan pondered for a long time, and finally let go of his clenched fist, hehe, let me see what benefits Emperor Daqi gave you!You actually let you abandon your dignity and push the country to a desperate situation! !

When I opened this silk document, the seal I saw was not that of Emperor Daqi—it was that of Wang Xieshan, Shangshu of the Ministry of War.

"...

The covenant of the King of Monan is not the place of morality, my emperor upholds righteousness and covenant, we cannot agree with him

......"

To fight against the outside world, we must first secure the inside?Your Highness, you are so stupid...to actually discuss business with wild wolves.If you want to imitate Daqi's rule of vassals and exterminate tribes, you can't do this!

Saul Hahan carefully checked the seal of Da Qi's Ministry of War, and it was indeed not a fake.Even if Wang Yunyi knew things well, he would never have expected to meet him in the ravine. It was almost impossible to be prepared. Since this document was true, Wang Yunyi naturally had a bargaining chip with him.What will the chips be?How long did Wang Yunyi know his identity?Could that Wei Chi have said something to him?Does that Ning Yuan really know nothing?Thinking of this, I can't help but frown...

"Miss Qi Qige, I kept you waiting..." Wang Yunyi picked up the curtain and walked in.

"Where is General Wang?" Saul Hahan retreated to his seat, picked up the tea casually, only to find that the tea was already cold.

Wang Yunyi picked up the white steaming water bottle at hand, and added some into it: "Your Highness, please help me when I go to Ulanchabu."

"I don't know what General Wang wants me to help? Although I am a princess, I have no real power..."

Wang Yunyi stretched out a finger and shook it, interrupting Saul Hahan's words: "I have also heard about the ability of the eldest princess, I hope that the princess will not refuse. King Monan has already made you feel cold, why do you have to protect him alone?" Abandon tens of millions of people in Monan?"

"General Wang's words are so coincidental. Could it be that the general brought tens of 10 people here for the happiness and well-being of the people in Monan?"

"You can't say that. Wang is not a hypocrite. Please be honest with the princess. Today's Monan has already fallen apart. If you don't get rid of the carrion, how can you get rid of the patients? The current action still needs to be done." !"

"If I betray King Monan, what's the difference with King Monan betraying the people?"

Wang Yunyi smiled: "How dare I let the princess be reprimanded for betraying the monarch? Now if you don't go to the capital, you will go to Bayan Tala. The princess should be more calm. If you go to the capital, there will inevitably be street fighting, but if the nobles don't want to fight, the two sides can fight Reduce some casualties. But I hope the princess will appease all the tribes, Wang will naturally leave Monan King to the princess, what the princess wants to do with it is up to you to decide!"

"It's easy to put it..." Saul Hahan also smiled: "There are also many supervisors around General Wang. Is it possible that the general is not afraid of participating?"

"The general is away, and the emperor's order is not acceptable. The princess doesn't need to worry about Wang's affairs. I have also been in the court for more than [-] years, so I naturally have a way to deal with it."

"Yes, I'm afraid that General Wang will also deal with me!" Saul Hahan looked Wang Yunyi directly in the eyes.

Wang Yunyi looked at these eyes that were as dark as shining stones and couldn't help thinking, if this woman is also 50 years old, can he still play games with her?

"Eldest Princess, when we arrive in the capital, it's your territory. I'm afraid that if you're not happy, you'll deal with me, don't you think so?"

Saul Hahan thought for a moment, then touched Wang Yunyi's teapot slightly with his small teacup: "It's a deal!"

"It's a deal!" Wang Yunyi clapped his hands, and a strong middle-aged man walked in. Wang Yunyi pointed to him and said, "This is Yin Jianqiu, the captain next to me, and I will be ordered by Her Royal Highness from now on."

Saul Hahan nodded to the man in the middle: "Before arriving in the capital, it's better not to reveal my identity."

"Okay!" Wang Yunyi nodded: "Everything is as the princess wishes."

Wei Chi and Du Qihuan were ready to stop, but they hadn't waited for Wang Yunyi's order.Du Qihuan didn't understand astronomy, so he was worried about the fog again. Wei Chi persuaded him, but he didn't listen. He asked him to go to the big tent to ask, but he said that he was lazy and didn't want to go.Wei Chi laughed at him for being cowardly, obviously he was afraid of being scolded two days ago... Du Qihuan laughed badly when he heard it, and said, "Master Wei, you are so bold! Go and ask..." Wei Chi was beaten by him It's hard to shirk the first army like this, so I had to walk towards the big tent. As soon as I got to the middle army, I saw the purple figure from a distance. I just wanted to secretly catch up but was called by Wang Yunyi who was standing at the door of the big tent. Stop it——Wang Yunyi!Could it be that she came to see Wang Yunyi?

"General Wang." Wei Chi stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

"All ready?" Wang Yunyi liked this down-to-earth young man.

"Yes! I don't know when the army will leave."

"Let's start after lunch, this time you have to do your best! Make no mistakes!" The fog cleared, and Wang Yunyi's fire also dissipated.

When Wang Yunyi turned around, Wei Chi hurriedly looked up, but unfortunately the purple figure had gone nowhere.There were a lot of doubts left in my heart, I thought about it but couldn't figure it out, after thinking for a while, I dispelled my worries, I just hoped that the woman would not have any accidents in this barracks... In the end, I regretted not Instruct Chen Hu, lest there be any negligence, it will be too late to regret.

In the afternoon, the army finally set off after two days of rest, but most of the soldiers didn't know where to go.Wei Chi was worried that the morale of the army would not be stable, so Du Qihuan laughed at him and said, "These little soldiers just need to follow the people in front and don't bother talking to them."

Wei Chi got on his horse and was about to leave, but Du Qihuan stopped him again: "I'll introduce you to someone, you will take his cavalry to rectify military discipline these few days. Here, it's him, you two are old friends."

Wei Chi turned his head... Tang He.

"It's been a long time..." Wei Chi smiled politely.

"Okay, long time...no see." Tang He trembled.

The sun's light finally shone into the deep valley, dissipating the icy cold air a lot.However, Shen Jiang Tanghe felt that his body was getting colder.Originally, I thought I could avoid this little boy... Hey, how did I expect to be able to avoid the first day of the junior high school but not the fifteenth day.He and I were originally Geng Zhuqiu's subordinates, so it made sense to be assigned to one place today. I wanted to go to defend myself just now, to see if I could switch with someone, but Geng Zhuqiu was scolded by Wang Yunyi two days ago Miserably, he lost patience with all his subordinates, and made an expression of wanting to kick him before he could open his mouth.Now that things are going on, I can only hope that Staff Officer Du can protect this...

Wei Chi didn't think so much about Tang He, at most he was a little worried that this person wouldn't listen to him.Now even if he is given a chance to tease others, he is too lazy to do it...

"General Tang, I had a bit of a feud with you before, but the general is not a small-hearted person. If I offend you, I hope the general will not care about it and focus on military affairs!" Wei Chi was quite serious.

Seeing this tone was quite sincere, Tang He didn't dare to look up at Wei Chi's face, but he felt much more at ease in his heart: "What Master Wei said is true."

Seeing Tang He's neither salty nor bland, Du Qihuan flicked his eyebrows lightly—this man... is old but not as magnanimous as Wei Chi...

The cavalry of the former army set off. Contrary to the expectations of many soldiers, this march was to the east—Wa Ena. After passing Wa Ena, they could leave the Ikezhao Mountains and go straight to Ulanqab, the capital of Monan.In fact, going east is not a desperate situation. Didn’t Solhahan and his party enter the Ikezhao Mountains from Wa’erna in the east?It's just that the terrain on the east side is peculiar, there are not only many ravines separated by mountains, but also many shallow ravines five to six feet deep and nearly ten feet wide in those ravines.These shallow ditches are criss-crossed, and there is no rule to follow. No matter whether pedestrians walk or horses, it is absolutely impossible for luggage to pass.It is not difficult for merchants to use horses and camels, but there are so many materials nowadays that it is basically impossible to use horses and camels. Therefore, whether it is a team dominated by infantry like Daqi or a team dominated by cavalry in Monan, as long as they bring three For more than [-] days of marching supplies, Wa'ena is a natural moat that cannot be crossed.

Want to change!Du Qihuan called Wei Chi in this way.

Wei Chi looked at the things on the car that were covered with oilcloth and nodded silently in approval. There is no unchanging truth in this world, and now this moat is about to change.At the same time, another group of cavalry troops set off secretly before dawn, and they returned along the road signs left before.Although the army walked this road for nearly ten days, if Qingqi returned the same way, it would only take three days to get out of the mountain!The Duolun-Jujuelu-Ulancha defense line that the previous generation of Monan kings were proud of could indeed block the attacks of a large number of infantry, and it can even be said that the ability to block Qingqi should not be underestimated.But today's force may cause headaches for several generals on this line of defense.

Around!The infantry couldn't bypass Duolun and Jujuelu. Even if they were lucky enough to bypass the dangerous terrain and came to Ulanqab, they could only starve to death while watching the city walls of Ulanqab-the supply of supplies was not enough. superior.

attack!Nearly ten tribes set up camp outside Ulanqab. Even if Qingqi wanted to attack Ulanqab lightly, they would not be able to break through the continuous attacks of these tribes.

Such a wonderful defense is the most precious property left by the previous generation of Monan kings for his son. This property has withstood the test of the Hut cavalry, the test of the Masgara cavalry, and the cavalry of the Modan Dynasty. The test of the mixed formation has withstood the test of the Yuanjin Heavy Cavalry.It has stood on this grassland for 20 years and has created unprecedented peace for Ulanqab... Now, it is waiting for the Daqi cavalry.

The leader is forward Qiao Yunsheng.

Qiao Yunsheng was not born as a general. He was a Jinshi in Hongwu for 27 years. He worked as a county magistrate in Yuanjiang (border) in the south for several years.Unexpectedly, this person was not keen on submitting letters to others, but just danced with guns and sticks in his backyard every day. After three years, he got a low grade in the Beijing investigation, and was relegated back to his hometown to still be the county magistrate.His hometown happened to be near Gourd Mountain in the southwest (the border), bordering on the small country of Sisisia in the southwest.The bandits didn't meet, but they met the coup of the prime minister of this small country, and a group of natives drove elephants to attack the city.That small city was not an important place for military strategists in the first place, and the city wall was only five or six meters high, and it was still made of loess.Hundreds of people guarding the city were about to flee, but the county magistrate Qiao didn't agree, he chopped down several deserters with a steel knife in his hand, intending to live and die with the city.The defenders in the city fled and could not escape, so they had to obey orders and fight. I don't know what method Qiao county magistrate used, but he led a group of weak soldiers to win the battle.Originally, these trivial matters were not reported to the capital, but the king of Sisria sent the rebel prime minister who was kidnapped by Qiao county magistrate to the capital in order to commemorate Da Qi's peace. Qi proclaimed himself a minister.At that time, not long after Emperor Wu ascended the throne, it was the time when he was very happy, and this group of people came just in time to flatter him.The emperor gritted his teeth when he was happy, and promoted County Magistrate Qiao back to Qiao Yushi against the pressure of the officials.

Qiao Yushi, who was promoted to an official, became distressed when he thought of Jingcha two years later. He racked his brains to write a memorial, and after stirring up and down, he stumbled into Wang Yunyi's book.Wang Yunyi spent half of his life in the officialdom, and he hadn't seen any censor who could take care of him so well, so he hurried to visit, and this visit made him a friend who had forgotten his years.

Qiao Yunsheng, cautious, brave, can take on great responsibilities!This is Wang Yunyi's evaluation of him.If this battle can be fought well, the unknown Qiao Yunsheng will be able to shine! ! !

"Why didn't you send Xu Lang there?" Wei Chi asked Du Qihuan, Xu Lang's bravery was not comparable to that of Qiao Yunsheng.

"Xu Lang, one man can defeat ten thousand, but only in one battle. Although Qiao Yunsheng is not a tough general, he can think carefully, guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and forbear. Even if there are hundreds of battles like this, he will always win every battle! "

"It's so powerful... Then I will get to know you when you have time in the future."

Du Qihuan laughed: "Brother Shaohu, don't you see how much General Wang loves you?"

Wei Chi was taken aback: "Don't dare!"

"Why don't you dare? You're just younger. If it's ten or eight years from now, your reputation will resound throughout the grassland." Du Qihuan patted Wei Chi on the shoulder: "Brother, I'm not saying this as a compliment. .”

Wei Chi couldn't say much, so he could only smile embarrassingly.

Both myself and Qiao Yunsheng were born as scholars, but they are different.Why can't Wang Yunyi feel the care of him?I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint General Wang...

"Let's go!" Du Qihuan left with a whip.

hit the road!Wei Chi patted the leopard under him, Qiao Yunsheng came here to challenge the famous line of defense... Hehe, my trip is not bad, Yi Kezhao's Wa'ena, even Bayantala's cavalry The moat that can be blocked, here I come! !

The author has something to say: The war has started again, but... because this part is the most prone to loopholes and lightning points in the first half of this war, so please give me some time to think carefully.bye!This week is only the update of this chapter, please bear with me.

Ah, war... I hate you, I want to write romantic ooxx (sorry, I'm obscene)
