Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Chapter 117 Kicks off
On the day the edict was issued, the people in Daliang, inside and outside the court, knew in their hearts that the officials had decided to use force against the Southern Tang Dynasty.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, the government issued an edict to conscript tens of thousands of people in the surrounding states and counties of Daliang to build the outer city of Daliang.

The south is still fighting, and Huaibei civilians have been conscripted to deliver food, grass and luggage for the army. At this time, nearly [-] civilians from the counties near Daliang will be conscripted to repair the Daliang city wall, which will inevitably cause public resentment.

Shi Congyun soon understood the official's determination. This was to defend against the north and chase the south. He made a big determination to fight the Southern Tang Dynasty, and he was afraid that he would have to conscript himself in the future.

A few days ago, Shi Congyun wanted to take a walk in his mind, trying to find a way to go to the south and make some achievements, but found that there was no chance at all.

It's all right now, and you don't have to worry about it yourself, because if the officials go to the army personally, he, the commander of the Crane Controlling Left Chamber, will inevitably go south with the army. The Crane Controlling Army is the main force, and it is indispensable to fight such a big battle.

Armies such as scattered members and Nei Dian Zhi may not necessarily go south, but the main force controlling cranes will definitely go south with Sheng Jia, so there is no need to waste your words.

In the afternoon, Shi came back straight from Yunshang, had dinner with his mother and others in the main hall, and went to the west courtyard to sit with Luqiu Zhongqing for a while, talking about fighting the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Back in the yard at night, Wang Qiu also came over and was helping Zhao Shijian with things, packing up and storing the clothes hanging under the eaves, and preparing hot water for him to wash. The two girls whispered and didn't know what to say.

Seeing him come back, Wang Qiu greeted him, and quickly returned to his hut with interest.

……

"I'm going to fight again in two days." In the hut on the old willow tree, Shi Congyun whispered to Zhao Shijian in his arms.

Zhao Shijian posted a post later. In fact, there are a thousand and ten thousand reluctances and unwillingnesses in his heart, as well as fears, but women in this era actually have very few choices.

As long as she takes that step, she will entrust her whole life, and there is no room for repentance, so she will hesitate and be afraid, but maybe she is disturbed by the "if the relationship lasts for a long time, how can it be day and night".

Or the love that arises every day, and the love that he has developed naturally after getting along more.

Or the longing after a long parting is dizzying.

Or the fate she felt she couldn't escape, she was afraid from the very beginning when she entered the historian's house, what if the lustful young master took a fancy to her.

In short, Zhao Shijian was a little dizzy and handed himself over. Thinking about it now, this guy is really her nemesis. He used to be manipulated by him at will, but now he is bullied at will, and he will worry about him in the future.

Thinking of this, Zhao Shijian suddenly felt inexplicably wronged, grabbed his big hand that was making trouble on his chest, opened his mouth and bit it down. He wanted to bite hard, but he couldn't bear it when he was halfway through.

"It's not suitable for you to go to the Fu family, Fu Liu is not alone in Beijing, and her second sister is also there, her identity is not simple.

Men are absolutely not allowed to go, so my mother and I visited," Zhao Shijian said in a low voice.

The words also became sour: "The six daughters of the Fu family are very beautiful, and they are still young, gentle and pleasant, with generous and decent manners. They are worthy of being the girls of the palace."

"No way, no matter how beautiful she is, she's not as pretty as you."

He said it easily, but Zhao Shijian didn't believe it at all. This guy had a lot of nonsense, and he said it as soon as he opened his mouth, but his sour heart felt happier.

She is very smart and understands why the second daughter of the Fu family is in the capital, so it is definitely inconvenient for men to enter the Fufu.

The mistress was afraid that she would say something bad, so she asked her to accompany her.

This matter was actually very difficult for her, and her heart was as painful as a knife, but she finally nodded and agreed.

Marry a chicken as a chicken, marry a dog as a dog, Zhao Shijian has understood this truth since she was a child, she was indoctrinated in her family since she was a child, and it has been subtly rooted in her heart, no matter what, this man is now her little world God.

She doesn't want her man to go to war, but now is not a peaceful and prosperous age, the future and fame of a man can only be fought on the battlefield.

Zhao Shijian has read poetry and books since he was a child, and he has learned a lot about the past and the present. He has seen many worlds with his grandfather. She is a woman with knowledge and general knowledge. She will not cry with men on such issues, and she does not want to be delayed by her own selfishness and happiness. his future.

In the end, holding back the tears from his eyes, thousands of words turned into one sentence, "You have to take good care of yourself."

The person behind nodded, and the big hands didn't make any trouble, and gently embraced her.

"I don't want to leave you either, but I'm just a little boxer now. When I can command an army of [-], I will bring you with me. Then we will be a pair of wild mandarin ducks."

Zhao Shijian blushed immediately, and said angrily: "What nonsense." The little hand pinched his thigh lightly.

How can there be such a word, and she thought of some very shameful things, which can be done with someone's face, but she was determined not to allow it, thinking silently in her heart.

As a woman, she needs to be a husband and a child, and in the future, she must teach him what is etiquette, righteousness and shame, Zhao Shijian thought to himself.

"We'll sleep on it at night."

"No!" Zhao Shijian immediately vetoed it, guessing in his heart that he must be thinking about something nasty again, so he quickly covered it up: "It's too cold, it will freeze the body."

"Let's bring more quilts and bring them up."

"No, there will be night wind." Zhao Shijian didn't give him a chance.

The person behind said helplessly: "Okay then, let's go to sleep. In fact, I think it's the same everywhere. I can still watch the stars from the tree."

Zhao Shijian's face was burning hot, he would be a ghost if he believed what he said, he was looking at the stars in the winter, he had something wrong in his heart, and wanted to do something despicable.

She originally thought that with a physical relationship, the relationship between a man and a woman would be nothing more than this, but this guy's methods were beyond her understanding and imagination, breaking through the lower limit, many times it was difficult for her to resist, and she gritted her teeth and refused to cooperate.

In the future, I must teach him well. Zhao Shijian thought in his heart.

At noon the next day, Shi Congyun was in the blacksmith's shop outside Longjin Gate, looking for someone to help Luqiu Zhongqing make a pair of armor that fit him.

Luqiu Zhongqing wanted to go with him to the front line. No one could say for sure what happened on the battlefield. It was always good to have body armor, and it wasn't the heavy iron armor they used when they went into battle to kill the enemy.

It was a thin scale armor, and it didn't need to cover the whole body. It was much lighter, and its protection was not as good as the thick armor they wore when they went into battle, but it was enough. He didn't want Luqiu Zhongqing to charge into the battle to kill the enemy.

Such a suit of armor is not cheap, and Shi Congyun paid the money in advance, which once again made Luqiu Zhongqing very grateful.

After a while, some personal soldiers came to look for him in a hurry on horseback. As soon as they got off their horses, they shouted: "Master Xiang, someone from the Privy Council is here, and I want you to go there!"

Shi Congyun nodded, and told the soldiers around him to stay with Luqiu Zhongqing and hand over to the blacksmith, otherwise he was afraid of being bullied. Luqiu Zhongqing is both a foreigner and a literati, and there are many troublesome people in Daliang City.

Then he rode his horse to the Privy Council Office.

After entering the official office, Wei Renpu did not stay in the office room this time, but was waiting for him in the corridor outside the courtyard.

Seeing him coming, he didn't say any polite words, and directly handed him a document with the official seal of the Privy Council: "Master Shixiang, the army will be reorganized immediately from tomorrow, the officials have decided to go to the imperial conquest, and the holy cavalry will come to Huainan in person.

With Iron Cavalry and Long Jie as the forerunners, the Crane Control Army accompanied them. "

Shi Congyun took a long breath, with excitement and tension intertwined in his chest, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty!"

Wei Renpu probably had a good impression of him, because Shi Congyun has always been very respectful to his husbands, so he went on to say: "This time, the official's personal expedition, everything is under the eyes of the official, and there are not many opportunities like this." Yes, but you have to take good care of it, it is always different whether the officials see it or not."

Shi Congyun was excited, and hurriedly said: "Thank you, Mr. Wei, for your reminder, I know!"

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, definite news came out from the palace that the officials had decided to go on a personal conquest!Shi Congyun was also ordered to start gathering troops outside the city.

Under the corridor of the side hall of the Chuigong Hall, Guo Rongqing stroked the carved bow in his hand, and sighed: "Four or five years ago, I was able to pull it away. I have worked so hard over the years, but I suddenly remembered that I couldn't pull it away." .”

There were only Wang Pu and Wei Renpu standing behind him, and Wang Pu said directly: "It is not the courage of the people that the officials rule the world. Besides, all the generals and soldiers in the world are the strong bows and swords of the officials. Why can't the officials draw a bow?" worry."

Guo Rong didn't reply, and he was silent for a while before he said, "There are not many bows and swords that can be used in the world. Besides, swords have double edges, and if you are not careful, you may hurt yourself."

Wei Renpu didn't dare to answer these words, and fell silent.

"That depends on whether the official family is well-off." The upright Wang Pu said directly.

The official looked at him and smiled: "In front of me, only you, Wang Wenbo, dare to speak like this, but you are telling the truth, and I like it very much."

"Going south this time, the situation in the world has to be determined. I went with such determination, but I don't know if the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and the Forbidden Army of Daliang are with me." Guo Rong said His face darkened.

"I don't know which ones are precious bows and swords, and which ones are rotten copper and rotten iron"

"Lu Yao knows that horsepower will see people's hearts for a long time. This battle is related to the destiny of the country. It is the beginning of the official's plan. Almost all the forbidden troops will go south. By then, it will be clear at a glance who is the sharp sword and who is the rotten iron." Wei Renpu said slowly.

The official smiled, nodded and said, "That's exactly what I mean. It's not bad to have Shi Congyun in the first battle against Shu. This time I'm going south, and I want to go there in person, so I have the intention of trying the sword."

"The officials are wise!" The two said, clasping their hands.

Then Wei Renpu hesitated, "The Queen's side."

Empress Fu repeatedly dissuaded her when she heard that the official's family wanted to drive the imperial conquest in person, even to the point of crying, saying that she was afraid that something might happen on the official's southern expedition, and it was no secret.

Guo Rong frowned irritably: "Women's opinions don't matter."

I thought if she wasn't the daughter of the Fu family, how could she dare to cry with the emperor like this, and even stop him from conscripting himself.

Then he seemed to think of something, "I heard that the Fu family wants to marry their sixth daughter to Shi Congyun?"

Wang Pu nodded: "But there is such a thing."

He is the right to know the Kaifeng government affairs, and the whole girder is under his management, so naturally, any disturbance cannot escape his eyes.

Guo Rong narrowed his eyes, no one knew what he was thinking, Wang Pu and Wei Renpu felt that the atmosphere was subtle and dangerous, and they didn't dare to speak out.

After a long time, he said: "This time going south, let Shi Congyun lead the left wing of the crane and follow Shengjia."

Wei Renpu said repeatedly: "I obey the order!"

In the royal garden outside the north gate of the inner city, it was covered with snow, and the small pavilion in the garden was filled with white mist, and heaters were placed in the four corners to dispel the cold. Many court ladies and eunuchs stood in the snow one by one, three floors inside and three floors outside.

Empress Fu was dressed in fiery red fox fur, with a warm blanket on her back, and a copper stove in front of her, dignified and rich with a hint of liveliness.

The two younger sisters sat across from her.

"I don't want to leave the palace easily, and I don't want to invite you into the palace. I'm afraid that Shi Congyun will have a gap with the sixth child, so we can only meet like this." Empress Fu said.

"All according to the arrangement of the elder sister."

In front of the eldest sister, the two younger sisters were not as comfortable and lively as they were when they were alone. Instead, they straightened their backs, sat upright, and spoke properly.

Empress Fu exchanged pleasantries with them, and then said, "I can't stop the official conquest this time.

The officials traveled thousands of miles to transfer Shi Congyun back from Guanzhong, and they will definitely let him join the army. Fortunately, the sixth child is not in a hurry to marry, and if he goes to the battlefield, he will be rich, his life will be unpredictable."

Empress Fu's face was calm and her appearance was dignified, but what she said was cold, "It's just right, let's see if Shi Congyun is worthy of being the sixth child. If he behaves well in the south, he will earn money again." Merit, the sixth child did not disgrace the lintel in the past.

But if his performance is mediocre and he has no achievements, I will find a good family with ability and merit for Lao Liu. "

The delicate and beautiful Fu Liu listened to her sister's words quietly, and felt that such an approach was not good. She was a daughter's family, and since she had agreed to the Shi family, she should stick to it.

But when he met his sister's eyes, he immediately lost his mind and didn't dare to disobey, so he could only bite his lip and nod lightly.

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, banners and flags stood in the north of Daliang City, drums and trumpets sounded in unison, and the dust on the avenue was flying with the warm breeze of early spring, and it was gray for several miles.

The left side of the control crane, the left side of the iron cavalry, the right side of Longjie, and the east and west squads assembled in the field north of Daliang City. The army of more than 5 people stretched for several miles and lined up, waiting for the holy driver.

The scorching sun hung high at noon, and the big banner of the official family appeared far to the west. Shi Congyun heard the voice of the front line shouting "Long live" overwhelmingly.

Then the order was issued layer by layer from the mouths of the messengers running between the armies, and the army set off, officially heading south!
Shi Congyun was dressed in light armor and rode on horseback. There were many flags behind him. Luqiu Zhongqing, Shao Ji, Wang Zhong, Dong Zunhui, Luo Yanhuan and others with excited faces followed behind him. The envoys, the Fourth Army commanded Yu Cheng, the Fifth Army commanded Shen Zhiyi, and the Sixth Army commanded Zhou Bupu and so on.

The all-out war between Hou Zhou and Southern Tang began!
