When Xu Fengnian woke up, after opening his eyes, he turned his head to look, and now the sun outside the window was bright, and under the light, the dust near the window was delicate, but the room was a little dim, Xu Fengnian retracted his gaze from a little distance, and saw a fat man sitting on the edge of the bed like a hill, and Bei Liang was protecting Chu Lushan.
It turned out to be the presence of this guy, blocking out those rays of sunlight.
Chu Lushan, who had his back to the sun, said in a hoarse voice, "After Mr.
Nangong brought the prince to Huaiyang Pass, he said goodbye without saying goodbye, I can't stop it." ” Xu Fengnian, who had dry lips, sat up slowly, his breathing was not smooth, a person's back was actually very thin, and the so-called back of the heart was very centrifugal, and after being beaten by Tuoba Bodhisattva with all his strength, it was naturally far from being as simple as hurting his muscles and bones, but fortunately, Xu Fengnian was too familiar with the injury, and he became a doctor after a long illness, and he looked a little inward according to the Wudang Rhubarb Court's heart method, and roughly understood the degree of healing of his body and mind, and asked: "What about the iron gun?"
Chu Lushan said softly: "It was put in the coffin." ” Xu Fengnian nodded, "Tell Second Brother Yuan, let the Great Snow Dragoon take off the flag and send it here, as for the Great Snow Dragoon, it will be said that a brand new flag needs to be replaced, if someone obstructs it, there is no need to act forcefully, and I will personally explain to those horsemen when the time comes." ” Chu Lushan said: "Lord Qi, Yuan Baixiong set off to go outside the mouth of the gourd in Youzhou, as for the replacement of the Daxu flag, the prince doesn't have to worry about it, Lao Qi is the old man of the Great Snow Dragoon, and now the spy report of Lao Qi's death in battle has spread all over the border army, I believe that no one will say anything." ” Xu Fengnian put his hands on his abdomen and didn't look at Chu Lushan, "If I had rushed to the battlefield of the Longyan'er Plain a moment earlier, I wouldn't have died." ” Chu Lushan shook his head and said: "If the Protectorate does not pass the proposal of the three captains of the White Horse Crossbowman, even Sun Ji Wei Musheng does not have to die, the battlefield is changing rapidly, life and death are unbearable, there are not so many ifs."
Dead is dead. ” Dead is dead.
A very light word.
Xu Fengnian turned his head to look at this notorious man, the Xu family has been dominant in the northwest for 20 years, it is not a feudal town that has a bad record of Chu Lushan, and he is in a high position in Beiliang, and later generations of historians will definitely be stingy with pen and ink to criticize him, maybe it will be more infamous than Xu Fengnian, the co-owner of the Beiliang Iron Cavalry.
Xu Fengnian didn't get angry because of Chu Lushan's heartless words, not only that the fate of this person Tu Yizi Luqiu'er was destined to be related to Beiliang's honor and disgrace, but also that this man was considered by Xu Xiao and Li Yishan to be the closest to Chen Zhibao in terms of military talent, and he was the real handsome candidate of Beiliang, and it can even be said that if it weren't for Chu Lushan's blatant flattery, the young Zhuang faction of the Beiliang Border Army would probably fall to Chen Zhibao on one side, Xu Fengnian's hereditary replacement process will definitely not be easy, and he will shed more blood at the worst, One Huaihua general, Zhong Hongwu, is definitely not enough.
But the reason why Xu Fengnian really chose to be silent is that the towering man in front of him once rode a thousand horses to open Shu, and he also turned the tide in the first battle outside the border in Liyang Beimang, and he personally led eight thousand Luohe cavalry to strangle Dong Zhuo's plan before, so this man surnamed Chu, who has been fighting horses for nearly thirty years, has far more say than Xu Fengnian on the battlefield, even if Xu Fengnian is the great master of martial arts, even if Xu Fengnian is the king of Beiliang.
Chu Lushan clenched his hands into fists and put them on his knees, "Life and death, there is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed." ” Xu Fengnian pulled the corners of his mouth, his eyes were in a trance, and he seemed to think of the 300,000 stele forest behind Qingliang Mountain, "Don't comfort me, I know that those whose names are engraved on the stone stele have relatives, just like Qi Dangguo."
So no matter who dies, there will be people who are sad, not necessarily the saddest of me, Xu Fengnian. ” Xu Fengnian paused, "It's just that when I think of next year's Spring Festival, I have written so many couplets and so many spring characters like in previous years, but the person who will ask me for it every year is gone, even if I want to send it, I can't send it, and my heart is a little empty." ” Xu Fengnian raised his head, "Before the second trip to the rivers and lakes, Xu Xiao took me to the bottom of the Tingchao Pavilion and saw that there were many spiritual positions there, and I didn't understand Xu Xiao's mood at that time, but now I understand."
In fact, when Liu Jinu, Chu Hanqing, and Chu Hanqing of Hutou City died, they understood a little. ” Chu Lushan listened quietly to the young vassal king's self-talk, his face expressionless.
Xu Fengnian got out of bed, his figure staggered, Chu Lushan wanted to help, Xu Fengnian smiled and waved his hand, but Chu Lushan did not insist.
Chu Lushan led Xu Fengnian to a quiet courtyard not far away, stepped into the inner room, and saw the cypress coffin, Chu Lushan walked a few steps closer, and said with a smile: "Huaiyang Guan can't collect high-grade Nanmu, so he can only let Lao Qi fall asleep, fortunately, Lao Qi has never been a particular person in his life, I still remember that in Xileibi, this guy was able to sleep with the corpse as a pillow, and several times we went to look for him, we had to find him from the pile of dead people, and the princess said that he didn't work many times."
Later, in the northwest, the house of the six of us, the princess only helped Lao Qi to arrange it personally, for fear that this guy would fool around with a house the size of a sparrow's nest, and later even married his daughter-in-law as the princess's matchmaker, Lao Qile agreed to come down without saying a word, and it is estimated that he saw the face of his daughter-in-law for the first time on the day of marriage.
I have already gone to my father-in-law and princess to sprinkle and roll. ” Chu Lushan suddenly slapped the lid of the coffin heavily, "Old Qi, don't sleep, the prince has come to see you" Xu Fengnian glared at Chu Lushan.
The latter smiled stupidly, retracted his hand, glanced at the coffin, and Chu Lushan said in a low voice: "Sleep, sleep, Lao Qi, your sleep is bigger than the sky, and thunder can't shake you, only when you fight, these six words are the most effective." ” Xu Fengnian stood next to the coffin, looked at the sunlight outside the house and sprinkled on the ground in the courtyard, like a layer of golden lichen, and asked softly: "How is the north of Hutou City and Liuzhou?"
When it comes to military affairs, Bei Liang Du Hu Chu Lushan is much more solemn, and said in a deep voice: "This unexpected battle on the Longyaner Plain between the two sides, Beimang can be said to have suffered heavy casualties, and lost all the elite scouts, including the crow fence and the black fox fence, which caused the middle road army led by Dong Zhuo and Murong Baoding to become blind, and the eight thousand Dong family furniture cavalry only ran back more than 1,000 people, and there were only more than 2,000 people left in the 6,000 Rouran iron cavalry that were put into the battlefield, mainly after Hong Jingyan's death, the Rouran cavalry group had no dragons, and it must soon be divided up by the major forces of Beimang.
A cavalry army that is not formed cannot be said to have combat strength.
The most important thing is that after the destruction of the Dong family's private cavalry and the Rouran iron cavalry, it greatly hit the flexibility of the Beimang Middle Road army, on the other hand, our Beiliang, Yuan Nanting's white feather light cavalry combat power is well preserved, but it is a pity that Lao Qi's iron floating slaughter" Chu Lushan hesitated, "Tiefutu's deputy general Ning Emei, this time under the order of Lao Qi, he stayed in the garrison around Qingyuan Military Town, and the troops at hand are only a few hundred, even if you add the remaining cavalry army in the Longyaner Plain, it is only worth two thousand cavalry, and now that the big war is imminent, it is not suitable to draw troops from He Zhonghu Zhou Kang's left and right cavalry army, otherwise the two old marshals who have been holding back their anger for a long time are really going to rebel, in this way, Tiefutu may be difficult to fight alone in the second war, which is not good news, After all, the Iron Floating Massacre is such a valuable cavalry army, and two thousand and four thousand people on the battlefield are definitely not a concept. ” Seeing Xu Fengnian's contemplative expression, Chu Lushan continued: "According to the current spy report, Dong Zhuo and Murong Baoding both chose to stand still, which is also reasonable, the anger of the old woman in Beimang is enough for them to eat a pot.
And on the Liuzhou side, everything is in the established strategy, the only variable is that the deputy general of the Western Front is missing, and the 178,000 elite southbound routes of the Southern Dynasties in Huang Songpu's hands are exactly the same as when Liu Qi's soldiers came to Qingcang City, and now it depends on whether Kou Jianghuai's attack has the ability to make Huang Songpu lose his proportions, otherwise let Huang Songpu advance smoothly all the way to Qingcang City. ” Xu Fengnian said suddenly: "I will let the eight hundred white horse Yi enter the Tiefu Tu, starting from me, let all the generals above the fourth rank draw out a part of the personal guards and cavalry, I will let the Tiefu Tu regain the size of four thousand people in a month, and then follow Yu Luandao's Youzhou cavalry into the Liuzhou battlefield together." ” Chu Lushan was stunned for a moment, crossed his fingers on his abdomen, squinted his eyes and thought carefully about the stakes.
Xu Fengnian walked to the door, "Xie Xiqian made a suggestion to me before leaving Liangzhou, but the risk is too great, and for all the Liangzhou border army cavalry, it means huge casualties, and the most important thing is that this kind of battle damage may not be something that the entire Beiliang can bear." ” Chu Lushan said curiously: "Oh" Xu Fengnian laughed at himself, "Fortunately, Xie Xichen also said that he would wait for him to go to the border of Liuzhou in person, and asked me to wait for a month, and said that maybe he would overturn that suggestion by then." ” Chu Lushan smiled, "Actually, when the prince made up his mind to quietly smash 10,000 phantom horses into Liuzhou, he had already recognized Xie Xiqi's Liuzhou strategy."
Xu Fengnian nodded, "I think it's better to gamble on a big one than to wait for death under Beimang's step-by-step advancement." ” Chu Lushan leaned against the door of the house, and sighed inexplicably, "Da Chu Shuangbi Kou Jianghuai Xie Xichen, plus Yu Luan Dao, three young people from other countries." ” Xu Fengnian's face was gloomy, "Isn't it too reckless?"
Chu Lushan gave a vague answer, "It's hard to say." ” Xu Fengnian didn't walk out of the courtyard, but just sat on the threshold.
Chu Lushan looked a little embarrassed, he didn't sit or stand, after all, the threshold was so much, and he was estimated to be able to squeeze the young vassal king out with his size, so he had to think of a compromise and sit on the doorstep steps after crossing the threshold.
Xu Fengnian asked: "Lu Qiu'er, if you really act as Xie Xichen said, will you Beiliang old people have resentment?"
Chu Lushan, who turned his back to the young vassal king, replied to the question, "I remember that under the planning of Li Yishan, the local forces of Beiliang were turned upside down, and they moved to Liuzhou as a criminal citizen, and the wealthy family was gone, and our Xu family army finally took root in this strange land and gained a firm foothold, at that time there was a celebration banquet in Qingliang Mountain, at that time, the prince looked at the full house of generals, and got drunk, and for some reason said a word that was not in the situation, to the effect that the Xu family wants to live in Beiliang for a long time, and it is not enough to rely on the sword alone, Internally, it is also necessary to give the people in the jurisdiction a stable life, Xu Jiajun cannot be swaying on horseback for the rest of his life, in addition to enjoying the blessings after dismounting, he also needs to govern Beiliang with his heart. ” Chu Lushan raised his head and looked up at the blue sky, "It was also from that time that many martial artists left the army, like Lin Doufang Hu Kui, and there were also many literati who were prosperous in the officialdom, like Li Gongde Yan Jiexi, but his father-in-law was still worried in private, thinking that it was his reputation that was too bad for Beiliang to abduct and deceive people from studying in other places, deliberately looked at our group of righteous sons with a straight face, Yao Jian Ye Xizhen, the two old pedants, couldn't help laughing, what about me, naturally I hurriedly slapped a few words, Lao Qi was the most lacking in heart, and asked his father-in-law what it meant, which made his father-in-law particularly happy, and copied the words that Mr.
Li explained to his old man, and secretly made his father-in-law happy, so he said, Lao Qi is the real fool and has stupid blessings. ” Chu Lushan said in a calm tone: "The princess and Bodhisattva are heartfelt, they are good to our six righteous sons, and they have no prejudice against anyone, but the good law is not the same, she always advises me to study more, persuades the guy surnamed Chen to smile more, and persuades Yao Jian Ye Xi to exercise more physique, but among the six people, I Lu Qiuer and the other four may not listen to persuasion every time, but Lao Qi is different, as long as the princess says something, it is more effective than the holy decree, sometimes I make mistakes, I know that the princess will not blame, I am still uneasy, just like a private school Mengtong who memorizes the wrong book, No matter how much we comfort, it's useless.
When the princess died, the six of us were all coffin bearers, very strange, even the guy surnamed Chen and Yuan Baixiong had red eyes, I cried even more, but Lao Qi didn't have any expression, I asked why, this fool said that the stepmother was going to heaven to be a fairy, so he was not very sad, he just missed a little. ” Xu Fengnian smiled: "So when I was young, every time I got into trouble, I would find Qi Dangguo, the righteous brother, as long as someone gave him a message, and the custody immediately led the troops to come, I didn't think deeply at that time, I just felt that this righteous brother was the most refreshing, and he helped me solve the trouble, not to say, never nagging, never deliberately reasoning with me, big grinning, I have never been afraid of the sky, I feel that the sky is falling and he will help me to stand up, I remember that in the early years in Lingzhou, which was still called Fengzhou at the time, a remote county town, I and Li Hanlin, Yan Eat Chicken and Kong Wuzhi four and a group of generals who don't know our identity have a conflict, to the other party's dozens of family private army to make chickens and dogs jump, at that time Qi Dangguo happened to be near Fengzhou with a few old generals to patrol, after hearing the news, immediately with two hundred horsemen to kill, the few generals of the gate of the courtyard were demolished as firewood burned, the turmoil was very big, because there was Zhong Hongwu, who served as the commander of the Beiliang cavalry, and a group of Lingzhou generals to support, Qi Dangguo, who was supposed to be promoted to the deputy general of Lingzhou, lost his future, and Xu Xiao was very angry afterwards, because he didn't dare to fire at me, the lawless and accustomed prince, so he beat him hard, I didn't want to go, so I secretly carried two jars of green ant wine with Yan Eat Chicken to make amends, you must know that at that time I knew that Qi Dangguo was a disgrace, and I didn't have the confidence to let Xu Xiao change his mind, and at that time, who was willing to listen to me in the Beiliang Army, I couldn't give Qi Dangguo a similar official position by himself, I was ready to see Qi Dangguo borrowing wine to drown his sorrows, I never thought of his home, like no one, but after seeing me go to his house for the first time, his face was full of surprise, I still remember the way he strode towards me, smiling from ear to ear, seeing me, it was like seeing Xu Xiao visiting. ” Chu Lushan shook his head, this time he didn't use the title of prince when he spoke, "Xiao Nian, you are wrong." ” Xu Fengnian was a little puzzled, "Hmm" Chu Lushan said slowly: "I probably know the scene you said, Lao Qi saw you at that time, not like he saw his father-in-law come to the door, but like a crop who thought he was not promising, and suddenly saw his own brother who had been away from home for many years but was the top student in high school returned home, and he didn't look down on him as an elder brother, so he was very happy and proud." ” Xu Fengnian was silent for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "At that time, I only knew what I could do if I was drinking all day."
Chu Lushan said with a smile: "Maybe in Lao Qi's heart, you have always been promising, in this matter, don't talk about Yuan Baixiong, even my Luqiuer can't compare to him, among the six people, only Lao Qi has always felt that your Royal Highness the Prince of the World is promising, and never doubted that you would be able to become a man like your father-in-law in the future."
In the words of Lao Qi, whose ancestral home is the Dongyue clan, this is the kind of thing, and the truth is easy to tell."
Xu Fengnian sat on the threshold, stunned.
The Northern Liang capital protects his back to the young vassal king, and the young vassal king has his back to the coffin.
Two living people and one dead man, all speechless for a while. 999,。
