Chapter 32: Monarchs and Ministers (I)


The Lance Sparrow Army is really a division of tigers and wolves.After the hidden camp under the Prince's Mansion was investigated, Prince Wenhui secretly transferred the army to the Ghost Ming Valley, twenty miles outside Jiankang City.The strength of more than 5,000 troops is divided into 36 units, one of which is a lieutenant, and the troops are trained every day, without interfering with each other, and never stopping.However, the post of lieutenant adopts a rare "shift system", in which the non-commissioned officers take turns to take turns on duty to organize the day's military training.Therefore, there is no hierarchy in the Lance Army, and there is only a difference between strength and weakness.After Shizu ascended the throne, he inherited the old system of Emperor Gao and raised the wind of inspection in the territory of Daqi.Registration, registration, as the name suggests, is to re-revise the household registration and severely punish cases of adultery and falsehood.The so-called severe punishment means that among the young and strong, all those whose household registration has been revoked will be sent to distant places to guard the frontier.The order was forbidden, and most adult males fled in fear of crime.Prince Wenhui seized this opportunity and sent his henchmen to secretly recruit troops.For those who enter the camp, a three-year period; When you return home at the end of the period, you can live without worry about your household registration.The deal is cost-effective, and over the years there have been many people who have volunteered to join the Lance Army.However, Prince Wenhui clearly ordered that the strength of the Lance Army must be controlled within 6,000, but he didn't know what it meant.The men and horses of the Lance Bird Army change every three years, and now it is the second year.Xiao Zhaoye held the tiger talisman in his hand, and it was dusk when he was led to the high platform by a captain who served that day.As the sun sets, the afterglow shines on the large flat rocks, reflecting the deep marks of the swords and halberds.Different from ordinary armies, the Lance Army implements the measure of veterans leading new recruits, focusing on actual combat, training troops every day, rain or shine.As a result, the soldiers of the lance are all one and three, and there is no doubt that they are really elite soldiers.The soldiers of this part are lined up on it, dressed in bronze armor, fighting in pairs.The sharp blades dazzle and break through the wind.Probably because of the long-term seclusion in the secret camp, the soldiers of the Lance Bird Army did not have the habit of shouting, and there was only the sound of whirring wind and the impact of "Qiang Qiang" in the huge valley.Condescendingly, the moves of the battle are clearly visible.Xiao Zhaoye nodded approvingly, and looked back at the little guy standing on the side of the high platform, standing respectfully with his hands down, his eyes were full of smiles.The little man stood with his head bowed and pleasing to his head, not noticing the man's gaze."

Let's go and rest first," a familiar voice sounded above her head, and she jerked her head up to meet the man's gentle gaze."

I'll go through the departments one by one, and I'll go back at dinner.""

Okay, I'll clean up my accommodation."

She smiled, "Even if you only stay for one night, you can't be too sloppy." ”"Listen to you, don't get tired."

The accompanying lieutenant couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this scene.The general who came with the tiger talisman actually squatted on the edge of the high platform, talking to his little guy seriously, and his eyes still had such a taste of affection, no, he must have seen the cold wind at night through the gaps between the mountains and rocks, setting off a burst of mournful roars, accompanied by the darkness of reaching out and not seeing the five fingers, it is very mad This is the origin of the name "Ghost Valley".After the Lance Army garrisoned it, the soldiers guarding the mountain gate were dressed in strange costumes and screamed.The peasants who borrowed the road fled from the wind, one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, the Ghost Valley, more and more inaccessible, and the Lance Army was able to settle down.There are no lights and candles in the Valley of Oniming.In order to hide people's eyes and ears, the camp clearly ordered that no open fire should be lit after nightfall, and the mountain rain was coming, Xiao and He also lay down early, but they were not sleepy at all."

Tomorrow night at the latest, Xiao Luan's reinforcements will enter the city."

The man's bland statement seemed to be talking to himself."

Divide troops to intercept" She only knew a little about the art of war, and her tone was hesitant.In the dark, Xiao Zhaoye couldn't help but slyly hook half of the corners of her mouth, and finally there was something difficult for her."

At the moment, we have a small number of troops, and we do not have an advantage in dividing our troops to intercept them."

Xiao Zhaoye turned his head to look at the woman and said with a smile, "It's better to steal the beam and change the pillar and go straight to the Yellow Dragon." ”After a pause, Xiao Zhaoye further explained: "In the capital, Xiao Luan's men and horses are now mainly stationed in four places, namely Xichang Marquis Mansion, Zhongshu Province, Waguan Temple and Imperial Palace.At noon tomorrow, I will prepare to order the Lance Bird Army to pretend to be Xiao Luan's reinforcements, open the city gate, and then divide 3,000 troops to go to Zhongshu Province and Waguan Temple.In addition, troops were sent to surround the palace city, and the shadow guards in the palace should be combined with the outside to protect the palace.I led the remaining 1,000 troops to attack the Xichang Marquis' Mansion. ”"When Xiao Luan was in the army in his early years, he received a poisoned arrow on his leg, and every day after noon, he needed to apply herbs to the old wounds, and he rested for three moments, when he was fixed in the house.If Brother Yang can find the opportunity to slash Xiao Luan, the rest of the rabble will not be afraid.If not, then it will be inferior to one of them.Once the Hou Mansion started a battle and asked for help, there were ambushes in the other three places to respond.Cut off its reinforcements, the odds of victory are still considerable. ”Without delving into the smugness in his sprinkled words, He Jingying looked up at the simple wooden roof and said, "It's a good plan, but it's too dangerous." ”If he divides his troops to intercept him, he can sit in a large camp and strategize; But if he raids with surprise soldiers, there are many variables, and he has to lead the troops himself.At that time, there were no eyes for knives and guns, and she listened to her voice a little dumb: "This is the way it must be", "In terms of tactics, we are not good at learning skills, and I, Zilong, and Brother Yang think that this is the best chance of winning." ”Xiao Zhaoye held her hand through the quilt and said slowly, "Anu, it's me who tired you."

I can't do state affairs, I can't let it go after all" "If you can't let it go, don't let it go" He Jingying tilted her head and leaned on his shoulder, "We are in one place, that's enough." ”He opened his mouth, but swallowed the words anyway.As if he had been silent for a long time, he spoke again: "Anu, tomorrow you will wear civilian clothes, if you do it, you will pretend to be a common person and protect yourself, you know" "Don't worry, I won't drag you down." ”Rubbing her head against his chest in attachment, He Jingying faintly burst into tears, "You take care of yourself." ”In the early morning of this day, the king of the county took leave in the house, and it was rumored that the princess was about to give birth, and the king was lacking in skills.Xiao Luan couldn't help but secretly wonder about heaven's help.As soon as the early dynasty dispersed, the Xichang Marquis Mansion ushered in a rare guest Shang Fuxi Lang Ma Cheng.The reason why it is said to be a rare guest, although this person once worked for the former emperor Xiao Zhaoye, he remained neutral in the party struggle to this day.He has a lot of royal secrets in his hands, and Xiao Luan has always been unable to hold them.Some time ago, I heard that Ma Cheng's wife was seriously ill, and he had no intention of doing anything and closed the door to thank the guests.This time, he took the initiative to hand over the greeting post, asking to see the Marquis of Xichang, Xiao Luan was surprised, and faintly had a heart of vigilance, after he came to do something, Ma Cheng answered the doubts in Xiao Luan's heart straight to the point: "Master Hou, I heard that Lord Yang of the Tai Hospital is the current Uncle of the Sixth Emperor, and now he is living in your mansion" Xiao Luan smiled invisibly, he already knew Ma Cheng's intention."

Not bad."

Ma Cheng said with a firm face: "It's not a secret that my son has a thin life and is riddled with illnesses."

I have heard that the six emperors' uncles have unparalleled medical skills, and the lower officials have come here to seek medical treatment, hoping that the Hou Ye will be perfected" "Oh" Xiao Luan remained silent, "It's just that the six princes are busy with affairs, and they don't see guests, this" "Hou Ye, if the six emperor uncles can cure the stubborn illness of the inner son, the lower officials will be grateful to Dai De and the grass ring, but the Hou Ye is the first to look forward" "Master Ma is serious" Xiao Luan was very satisfied with Ma Cheng's understanding, and he commanded loudly, "Come here, please invite the six princes to come to the front hall to talk about it" Under the pressure exerted by Xiao Luan, in order not to let him feel the clues, he knew that the war was about to break out, Yang Minzhi was still gladly invited to go to Mafu.When he saw Mrs.

Ma from a distance through the curtain, he knew that what Ma Cheng said was true.It's just that this Mrs.

Ma is not suffering from a serious disease, but a heart disease.She has not eaten normally in the past two months, and Wu Yan'er is bedridden and has run out of oil.Ma Cheng invited Yang Minzhi outside the house and said: "Although the ugliness of the family cannot be publicized, until now, the only way to tell the truth is that the inner son once served King Yulin, and then married the lower official."

Since the death of Yulin Wangxue, she did not think about tea and dinner, and could not sleep at night, so that today it is rumored that there is a dose of medicine in the Wumen, which is called to forget and forget, which can teach people to forget their worries and smile.The lower officials have the courage to ask for medicine, and they hope that the six emperor uncles will help" "Master Ma doesn't know, the so-called forgetfulness is actually a poison.By paralyzing the brain meridians, the user loses part of his memory.The doctor keeps adjusting the dosage until the person who takes it forgets that part of the memory.This method has a certain amount of harm to the body, and according to the bottom of it, Mrs.

Zun's physical condition is not suitable for taking Yi Wusan.Once it is inappropriate, not only can it not cure the heart disease, but it will urge Yama" A glimmer of light in Ma Cheng's eyes dimmed, he opened his mouth empty, and said in a dumb voice: "Then I don't know if the Sixth Emperor Uncle has other methods" "Heart disease still needs heart medicine, Lord Ma is a little restless" "Don't be impatient" Ma Cheng shook the gods, people's lives are in danger, how to be a little safe, how not to be impatient With the news from the palace, at noon today, Xiao Zhaoye will lead the troops into the city.King Yulin is still in the world, how can this Mrs.

Ma's heart disease not heal itself Yang Minzhi had a faint smile on his face."

Master Ma, there is something I want to ask Mrs.

Zun in my heart, and my lord doesn't mind at all" "What can I do" Ma Cheng was still worried, "I'm not afraid of the jokes of the six emperor uncles, Xia Guan and Neiko have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and the grace of the knot is unforgettable" "That's not what it means in the next." ”Yang Minzhi looked at the man in the crown suit in front of him lightly, "King Yulin once had the grace of Lord Ma.For this Bole, Master Ma has no resentment in his heart" Ma Cheng's smile was a little contemptuous, as if he was laughing at himself "Junjun, the ministers were all over the world at that time, and now it has turned into a piece of loess, what can I care about" Yang Minzhi suddenly smiled: "That is the case, the Marquis of Xichang is eloquent and strategic, why don't Lord Ma cast another name for the master" Hearing this, Ma Cheng turned his head and glanced in the direction of the room, and said in a low voice: "Xia Guan has made it clear to the Marquis of Xichang that if the Sixth Emperor Uncle can save Neizi's life, Xia Guan will be the sixth emperor uncle before and after the saddle, you see Neizi's illness" Master Ma doesn't have to worry, stay at home next time, read medical books, and prepare medicinal materials.By tomorrow morning at the latest, I will be able to give you an answer" "Uncle of the Six Emperors" Ma Cheng's face was full of joy, "Xiaguan is waiting for good news" Qi Jinggong asked Confucius, and Confucius said: "Monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons." ”Gong said: "Good faith is like a king is not a king, a minister is not a minister, a father is not a father, a son is not a son, although there is millet, I have to eat everything" Analect Yan Yuan:
