Minister

Chapter 72

72【Six Years of Jiankang】

The enemy army outside the city also seemed to be quite persistent. They fought for nearly a month and were not discouraged when they were unable to attack. They organized rounds of attacks every day as a routine.The news outside the city has been completely cut off.How is Wang Yunyi?How is King Qin?Totally unknown.The soldiers were still working hard on the top of the city, and almost all the civil servants were in a hurry.How can a huge man withstand such a toss at his age?His face was sallow, coughing and coughing.The corners of Xue Zhu's mouth were rotten and his eyes were swollen.Only Wei Chi looked energetic.

Accompanied by the roar of cannons and the wailing of people, Xue Zhu had fun in his bitterness: "... Shaohu, you are indeed a war material."

Wei Chi saw that the corners of this man's mouth were rotten and he still had the strength to open his mouth to make jokes, so he laughed too, smiled and then sighed: "It's unexpected, we really are going to be unexpected..."

The caravan gave some more, but that was not a long-term solution after all.

"Come!" Wei Chi asked Xue Zhu to enter the room: "I don't care much about the matter now!" He took a pen and paper and spread it on the table: "Isn't it just that there is no transfer order? It's just something made of pen and paper..."

Xue Zhu was taken aback: "...absolutely not! You are going to be beheaded!"

Wei Chi licked the tip of his pen: "If you don't deliver food, you will be beheaded by Dali Temple and you will be beheaded by Monan..."

Xue Zhu pressed Wei Chi's hand: "No! What's more, you and I can actually imitate the transfer order? After sending the transfer order, it needs to be reviewed upwards. Wouldn't it be impossible to pass the review?"

"...This..." Wei Chi sighed heavily: "What should I do?"

"There is a way!" Xue Zhu thought for a long time: "As long as there are seals from the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Officials, it is an urgent order, and the food must be delivered first and then reviewed."

Previously, the imperial court did not send food because it did not take the order of these two seals.Conversely, as long as there are seals of these two parts, it means that the imperial court has agreed to the food delivery.

However, this is the crime of exterminating the family.

"You go to draw up the imperial edict, and I'll carve the seal!" Wei Chi didn't think too much about it. She had been in the Imperial Academy for the past two years, and she had seen the seals of every department and household, so it wasn't too difficult to imitate.

Xue Zhu still didn't let go: "...you draw the chapter, and I will engrave it..."

Wei Chi smiled and slapped Xue Zhu's hand off: "...The two of us, once we put pen to paper, it will be a death penalty. It's just that I'm alone. Even if I ransacked the house, I'm the only one who ransacked it. I've made money anyway."

Xue Zhu still didn't let go.

"Why is there so much ink?" Wei Chi pushed him away, took the ink and began to study: "...I don't know how many people are in your family? The military situation is urgent, go quickly."

In the evening, a rider dressed in military uniform came out of Fengyi from the west gate, and rushed to Gucheng in a hurry.This man's surname is Xing and his first name is Yun. He is a small official of Feng Yi.Wei Chi stood on the west tower and watched his back disappear into the valley of sunset Ai Ai, which was the direction leading to the rear.The valley there was quiet, and Xing Yun's back disappeared into the deep valley, carrying Wei Chi's expectations.

If he could really return to court, this crime would be enough!Wei Chi laughed at himself.

Wang Yunyi has captured Rujuelu at this moment, and uses this as a base to start a decisive battle with Meilin.Fengyi!You must hold on!Wang Yunyi was secretly uneasy, that small town would be the key to success or failure!

King Qin is currently launching a general attack on Bayan Tala.Hu Runzhi raised his sword and immediately checked the sergeant. The strong wind swept ice slag and smashed his silver armor. Suddenly, he looked back to the south—the direction of Feng Yi.Fengyi!Must hold on!You will be the key to success!

"It will definitely be delivered!" Wei Chi turned to Xue Zhu and said.

Xue Zhu nodded.

Yes, the document that would bring disaster to himself and bring hope to Daqi... will definitely be delivered.

However... no one knew that Xing Yun's trip was a dead end, and that hope could never be brought back.The huge sea and lake waters surrounding Gu Island drowned this young man, and also drowned all hope.

The war continued amidst depression, and Wo Tuolei obviously made up his mind to capture this place. He seemed to have an epiphany from the initial setback, and began to calculate patiently and methodically.There are no more than 1 people in the city, whether they are soldiers or civilians.Myself, [-]!How could Feng Yi be so arrogant?Relying on this costly city wall.

Wo Tuolei touched the mustache on his lips, lit the cigarette in his hand, and it went out after two puffs!Hehe smiled, took fireweed and re-pointed it, and brought a coal lamp over when it was no time, and smoked it!Choked by the black smoke.

"Cough cough cough..." Wo Tuo Lei stuck out his tongue from the bitter taste.

"Watch me doing what? Digging a hole! Buying explosives!...Sooner or later you have to take it!" Wo Tuolei ordered while rinsing his mouth with water, "Just fight as Dadu and I ordered last night!"

When the herald went out, Wo Tuo Leifu sat down and stuffed some tobacco, ready to light again, a tall woman walked in without saying hello: "My lord! Your Royal Highness has left."

Wo Tuolei looked back and saw that it was Alkey: "...oh... wait! Don't go!"

Alkey still had a cold expression on his face.

"...Do you know...Wei Chi?" Wo Tuolei will never forget this name in his life: "...is he a very good fighter?"

"do not know."

"Oh... oh..." Wo Tuolei was used to this proud female officer: "Then did she deliberately confess anything before she left?"

"No."

Wo Tuolei thought that this person was being perfunctory again: "...She didn't say who she was going to kill? Be careful that she cut you off if you missed this sentence."

"No," Alkey said with his hands behind his back, "that person is a lunatic, and he certainly won't live alone." After finishing speaking, Alkey bowed and left.

Wo Tuolei didn't condescend to chase it out this time, but just immersed himself in fiddling with the smoke pot in his hand, accidentally stuffed it too much, and was thinking about how to get it out.While digging out, I thought, besides the city defense, there must be something else in this seal.Geng Zhuqiu naturally needless to say, but what about the nameless Wei Chi?Civil servants, the rest is no longer known.

Isn't it said that vertical Confucianism is not enough to seek?

In his teens, a Confucian scholar, he still has everything!

However, this younger sister has never looked at a man in her life, what about this one?Is it a little different from ordinary people's attainments?I really want to see the cultivation level of this man who haunts my unmoving sister!

The smoke is finally lit!There was also the sound of explosives exploding from the far position... It's so expensive, Wo Tuolei sighed... My little lover, don't be killed by the real blast... What a shit civil servant temper!The girl actually likes this kind of... Fuck!

Wei Chi was jumping on the city wall at the moment, and the enemy's crooked ideas started to make him sick a few days ago, but he didn't expect it to be even more disgusting today!Who came up with this idea?

Since early in the morning, many Monan soldiers brought many long wooden boxes over, and then began to dig holes, and then stuffed the wooden boxes in after digging, and then the people on the city wall heard a "bang"!Blow up the city wall? ? ! !

There were not many people, and they ran away after the bombing was over. Before the grass on this side could be touched, the people below ran away without a trace!

The people on the top of the city had almost nothing to do, but the big mounds that the Monan people had built before made their fortifications more difficult because they worked too hard.

how to do?Will it be blown up?Pang Da came over to look in a hurry—this wall was repaired by his supervisor, and he knew it.After looking at it for a long time, he said, it will not collapse for the time being!It's winter, and the city wall is made of misplaced stone bricks, so it's okay for now.

Is it okay for now?Wei Chi couldn't help secretly reminding the old man of the current battle situation - I don't know what year and month it will be!

In the end, Xu Longshan was also brought up, but a group of people didn't know how to work, so in the end it was Da Da who had the final say.

"Splash water at night! Vigorously!" Old man Pang made the final decision.

What kind of idea is this?Could it be that Fengyi's city wall is to be built on ice?Everyone thinks it is really unreliable!Don't look at the cold weather!If it was really blown to the ground, wouldn't the city wall collapse if it was set on fire?

Facing Wei Chi's questioning, Xu Longshan said: "Just do it like this!!"

Wei Chi had no other choice at the moment, he could only watch the enemy army rushing towards him, and then "bang".

After getting off the tower, Xu Longshan went to the military tent, and Wei Chi went back to the yamen across the street. At this time, the two of them should be sleeping, but I don't know how many times they were called up halfway in the past few days...

Wei Chi felt that even his face was tired, and after taking two steps, he saw someone walking over—Hu Yanglin?

"Why are you here?" Wei Chi saw that his expression was still not good. After all, he was bleeding too much, and he didn't have a good meal these days.

"It's time for me to come down too..." Hu Yanglin smiled and shook his arm: "It's so delicate, and it didn't hurt the internal organs."

The two passed two steps, and were suddenly interrupted by a noise. Looking over, it was two soldiers who were blushing and neck thick.

"What's wrong?" Wei Chi restrained his smile and went up to ask.

"My lord!! My lord Wei!!!" A young man wailed and yelled this way.Wei Chi saw that it was the cavalry brought along by Geng Zhuqiu all the way, and it was also his old army.

The person who was arguing with him was obviously aware of this, and his arrogance was suppressed a lot. It seemed that he was from Xu Longshan.

"What's wrong?" Wei Chi took a few steps forward, and the wailing young man knelt down: "You bastard! You bastard! You want to cut the horse!!"

Cut the horse?

Only then did I see a cook standing not far away, shrinking his head.

Surprisingly, many people who were not on the battlefield at the moment surrounded them with friends.After sitting around for a while, someone began to yell: "My lord! The food has become more and more rare these days..." "What use are horses in the city?"

The people on the other side were all angry, and they were all cavalry from General Geng's side: "You guys know how to play! My horse is life! Who dares to move?!" "You dare to move?!"

As soon as he was about to start cursing, Wei Chi raised his arms and called out: "What are you arguing about?! Come out!" The cook-like man timidly stepped forward and made a bow.

"You asked him to come and lead the horse?"

"No, no..." The cook hurriedly bowed his waist: "...There is indeed no refined food...Here, isn't this just talking?"

The crowd fell silent for a while, the people from the Geng family were angry, and the people from the Xu family were also very angry.

"Everyone!" Wei Chi stepped forward and wanted to slap away the soldier's hand holding the horse rope: "As far as the cavalry is concerned, this horse is not just a horse, at this moment..."

coax!The crowd erupted again.

"Then what else is there to eat? Can you eat people?" "The food of the common people is not allowed to be moved, even if you eat a beast?"

For a while, I couldn't hold back the situation!

'Mutiny? A trace of ominousness suddenly flashed in Wei Chi's mind.

"What the fuck are you arguing about?" The person who came was Xu Longshan himself.

This roar actually stopped the troops of the Xu family.The cavalryman grabbed the reins, guarded his horse tightly, and looked at him fiercely.Xu Longshan came over, his face trembling, he glanced around majesticly, and after shocking everyone, he turned his head and gave Wei Chi a hard look.

Wei Chi knew the meaning of this look.

"What are you arguing about? What the fuck are you doing? If you don't want to rest, let me fuck off and set off the cannons! Fuck!"

Finally, he was bold: "General! What are these horses going to do if they don't eat them? People are going to starve to death!"

Xu Longshan looked back at Wei Chi viciously again - look!Haven't run out of food yet!That's it!

"Did you guys just come here and take it?" Xu Longshan stepped forward and slapped the soldier hard: "Of course there is something to eat! What kind of bird's heart are you talking about?"

Xu Longshan's notoriety is very prestigious, but it is clear that there is something to be said.

Wei Chi was silent for a long time, Hu Yanglin saw that he was about to speak, so he couldn't help but give him a hand.Seeing Populus euphratica pulling him, Wei Chi silently withdrew his hand and walked in front of the cavalry.At this moment, she will remember it all her life, remember how hard her heart was beating, how scared and hesitant she was.

However, in the end, he still said: "Everyone, this is an extraordinary time... only!"

The cavalry thought Wei Chi was going to speak for their side!Lord Wei is also a cavalryman!This horse, let alone a brother, is not an exaggeration to say that it is a relative!Even if I am dead, I can't allow others to touch it!

This is the rule of the cavalry. Even if the horse is old, it cannot be abandoned. This is a partner who has been born and died with himself. This friendship is quite sacred.

The cavalry are angry!The cavalry leading the horse showed an expression of swearing to die, and even Populus euphratica behind him was a little angry.

"Start killing my horse!" Wei Chi put down these words and quickly walked out of the crowd.

This sentence was roared out, and everyone heard it clearly.

Some time ago, this man did not forget to feed the horses hay when he went to collect food from the caravan, but the words at this moment were indeed spoken from his mouth.

"Brothers! I'm so sorry!" Xu Longshan bowed deeply to the cavalry, and then loudly ordered: "Go! Do as Master Wei ordered!"

At this moment Wei Chi had gone far away, but he still clearly heard those words piercing his body through the icy air.Hu Yanglin caught up, and Wei Chi waved his hand, indicating that he didn't want to say anything.In the dam behind, some cavalry covered their faces and began to cry.Xu Longshan's soldiers couldn't bear it either, and scattered away. The one who was trying to grab him just now also let go, and hurriedly hid in the crowd.

In the end, only the cook was left standing there with a knife, somewhat at a loss.

"Go!" Xu Longshan shouted and left.The cook shrank his neck in fright, but remembering the sad expression of Mrs. Wei just now, he felt that this was not a joke, so he took a cautious look at the group of cavalrymen, and was about to go back to boil water and sharpen his knives.

No one noticed that there was a caravan man standing around the corner, and he kept looking at Mr. Wei until he left.

That night, all the horses were sent to a fixed stable. According to Xu Longshan's intention, all the horses were marked with their owners, starting with the high-ranking ones.That night, all the soldiers ate hot broth. The cavalry seemed to resign themselves to their fate, and the infantry remained silent, but everyone's bodies were indeed warmed up by the broth.

Chen Hu was in a dilemma, he took the broth and heated it up again.

Wei Chi ate two mouthfuls of coarse grain porridge, which Xue Zhu specially ordered the cook to make.Wei Chi slept with his head covered when he came back, not daring to think about anything else.

Wei Chi came late today, Xu Longshan was already sitting in the watchtower waiting for him.After the showdown that day, Xu Longshan's expression finally softened a little today.The rare heavy snow stopped, and the sky turned out to be full moon.After the two discussed the strategy against the enemy, they were a little cold.

Finally, Xu Longshan stood up and made a gesture of lifting——patting Wei Chi's head: "It's hard for you!" After a pause, he said: "There is no snow tonight, my lord, if you want to stay on top of the wall, just stay there .”

Wei Chi sat wrapped in cotton for a long time, until the middle of the night, the sound of artillery fire rang out.

"Why did you come down?" Seeing Wei Chi's pale face, Hu Yanglin hurriedly stopped him: "There is moonlight tonight, Monan doesn't make any big moves, it's already suppressed...you..."

However, the enemy army has been suppressed on the city wall. Such a bright moonlight is indeed not suitable for night raids.

The city wall gradually became quiet, and the soldiers retreated to the tower one after another, leaving only a few guards.

Seeing Wei Chi's dazed expression, Hu Yanglin said, "Shaohu... Shaohu?"

"Hmm!" Wei Chi was a little speechless.

The two walked up the city wall silently, and walked up to the gate tower - this is the most protruding part of the city wall, standing on it is like standing alone in the battlefield.

Hu Yanglin had never seen such a helpless expression appear on Wei Chi's face. In the past, he was always so... so calm, as if he had everything under his control.

"Don't be sad!" Hu Yanglin took off his cloak and put it on Wei Chi.

"I... I ordered it myself... I..." Wei Chi's tears suddenly burst into his eyes.

Hu Yanglin saw that his hand was bleeding, so he quickly held his fingers.

"...I...I..." Wei Chi choked up and couldn't make a sound. Under the moonlight, the semicircular scar on the back of his hand was really clear, as if carved with a sharp knife.

"...I...I!" Wei Chi couldn't take his eyes off, he just felt that some part of his body was about to split open.

"It's okay! It's okay!" Hu Yanglin stretched out his hand suddenly, and hugged Wei Chi tightly: "It's okay! It's okay!"

Wei Chi only felt that the cold came from the bottom of his heart, what happened to me?It turned out that even the consciousness of the whole body was gone, just trembling, trembling non-stop.Every day in the past, I dare not recall, dare not recall.

Crying, so this is crying... Wei Chi suddenly wanted to cry heartily for her and for himself.

"We're going back together!" He said when he tamed her.

Therefore, she never hesitated to take herself to the front line.

However... she is now... already...

Wei Chi knew he couldn't escape, would she know?I ordered it myself, I ordered it myself...

"It's okay! It's okay!" Hu Yanglin put his arms around Wei Chi, listening to him suppressing his voice, weeping like a little girl.

"It's okay! It's okay..."

The author has something to say: Why is there so much in the first volume?And why are there so few emotional scenes?

In fact, it can be completely bypassed, and write about how a lonely general will return to the dynasty after his meritorious service.

However, I think war is not something we have experienced, and we may not be able to realize how much war will bring to a person.So can we understand her words and deeds afterwards?Probably not.

But according to this, can Wei Chi abandon the part of studying and taking the imperial examination?In fact, we can't understand many things she is doing now, and it is also because we have never experienced that kind of life.But after all, I still discard that part, because there is no woman named 'Sol Hahan' in that part, let's try my best to express it sideways.As for 'Sol Hahan', I definitely can't sum up her healthy six years in just one or two sentences at the opening.Such generalizations would leave me completely clueless about who she is.

What kind of person is Wei Chi?

The first impression should be kind, uncontested, and low-key.She did not argue with others, and sometimes she seemed to be forced to compete.When meeting Qiqige, that little princess, and Najib, it was mostly convenient.

But in fact she is not such a person.

Lu Shengduo said: "Those who are willing to treat themselves ruthlessly must be even more ruthless."

Wang Yunyi said: "I hope to sharpen your temper."

This is what flows in Wei Chi's bones under his kind appearance: ruthless, crazy.

This does not prevent the existence of conscience.Indeed, Wei Chi's most fundamental thing is these three points, that is, these three points are supporting her persistence!

The root of her madness is her life experience, she is lonely, so she is fearless.Dare to dress up as a man to study, dare to dress up as a man to be an official, and dare to engrave the imperial seal privately when you become an official.

She is ruthless, which is very similar to Saul Hahan, but she is not cruel, this ruthlessness is more absolute than cruelty!Because she dared to use all cruel methods on herself.This was something that her teacher who was much smarter than her didn't have, so she was also a follower of Wang Yangming, one of them failed to become an official after reading through the truth, while the other dared to become an official with half a tank of water.

Her conscience, that is, because of this, the first two things that didn't look good became something that made people think about something good.It was finally determined that she chose the former in front of the future of the motherland and her own future.

If you can stand my torment, you may not judge Wei Chi as a good person by the end of the reading.

Her personal character and many coincidences did not make her do many "heroic" deeds.I don't know if this is a pity.

She hadn't cried since she left Dashan, and this was the first time she cried.There are two other times, because there are not many, so I really want to make a few words as a souvenir.

This guy who has no family concept, this guy who is arrogant and crazy in his bones, this guy who is a bit abnormal compared to normal people is really uncomfortable this time.

I also feel uncomfortable.

However, this is war, no matter how unwilling we are, how much we hate the pressure and blood, it will hit our faces.

I don't believe in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, nor do I believe in heroic battles.I know that everything that is real is by no means wonderful, but cruel, the cruelty that makes people want to escape.

Everyone does not want this war.

But I'm really sorry, this is not a romance drama.
