Chapter 71

Youzhou, Yanjing.

Yanjing City is the prefectural city of Youzhou. The walls are three feet high, the towers are majestic, and the momentum is magnificent. If a thousand people are stationed, they can resist ten thousand troops.

The octopus, like a spider, has long legs. The common name is Xizi. When it is worn by people, it means that there are guests coming, so the people in Youzhou call it "friends and guests".

A team from Taikang hurriedly arrived ten miles outside Yanjing City. Following the neighing of the war horses in Guanzhong, the gates of the outskirts of the city camp were opened wide, with clanging halberds and spears, and flying banners, majestic and majestic.

After stroking his beard, the leading man in his forties flicked his sleeves and strode forward.

The jade pendant around the waist, under the lotus crown and jade hairpin, the clear and twilight face is slightly cloudy, and the north is very cold, so the robe is wrapped in thick cotton, the bloated body is like a barrel, and the movements are slow, which makes people laugh.

On the other hand, behind him was the imperial guard in uniform and armor, with a stern face and thick lips, and a powerful voice resounded through the front camp: "Doctor Jin Ziguang Lu, Master He Zhen He, has arrived at the order of the saint!"

The generals moved their eyes a little, but they were unmoved. The guards did not let them go until some commanding soldiers in the camp hurried to summon them.

He Yan's heart sank, he snorted coldly and said nothing, stepped in proudly after waving his sleeves, went through the gates and gates all the way, searched and checked, and finally arrived at the main tent.

A leisurely chuckle sounded from the camp: "Master He is here, my Dongyan army is full of glory, it's cold outside, Mr. He enters the camp quickly, don't freeze your body."

After Wei Boyu's "suicide in fear of crime" and Yang Zhong's "absconding from prison", the former minister of the Ministry of Punishments, He Jian, who was deeply implicated, was also beaten to the end. From a real power faction to a false official, this bad luck is second only to Yu Chen Gong, the former Qilin Pavilion scholar who retired from the phase, is also considered rare in Dajing.

With an ax and ax on his body, He Yan, who still didn't change his face, tensed his cold face, and entered the camp with his entourage shivering from the cold behind him.

As soon as he entered the room, a hot breath enveloped him, and he shivered subconsciously. There was a sharp pain in his stiff toes, numb tendons and blood circulation in his lower body, and an indescribable feeling of paralysis welled up in his heart.

His cheeks twitched, his figure was on the verge of falling, he was supported by a thick arm, and he asked with concern: "Is Master He still all right?"

Calmly pushing away the Hu Man'er's arm, He Zhen waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, thank you Captain Kang for your concern."

He knew that this person's name was Kang Hunshui, and he was jokingly called Kang Hu'er, because he was a descendant of the Hu tribe of the Yi tribe in the north of Dongjing. He was good at riding and shooting, and horse fighting. Wei' is one of the generals of the Eastern Yan Army.

It was recorded in the Dajing official residence newspaper that this person once took advantage of the war between Dongjing and Yunxiao to wantonly plunder the borders of the two countries, invaded many small countries, and became famous outside the world, but he was notorious and full of evil, and was despised by the Dajing officialdom.

Glancing at the back of his head, there are rumors that this person has a rebellious personality in his life, and he doesn't know which lucky person will be rebelled by this person in the future.

Looking up at the top, the man has bee eyes and eagle eyes, quite similar to the new Da Zongzheng. After a little deliberation, he cupped his hands above and said: "Governor Shen, I haven't seen you for many years. It's been a long time."

In the camp, there were generals gathered, at a rough glance, there were 20 of them, all of them had beards and hair, and had weathered many years.

The person above lowered his eyes to the case, and after He Zhen entered the account, he said without raising his head, "Move a chair for Mr. He."

"No need." He Yan waved his hands and refused, and gathered himself together, staring at the person above him with complicated eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I came here today for one thing only, and I will leave after speaking."

The man at the top stopped his pen and inkstone, looked up, and said softly: "Say".

He Yan choked in his chest, and his aura seemed to be suppressed invisibly.

After taking a deep breath, his eyes were burning, and he said word by word: "Dare to ask why the governor didn't follow the orders of the central government?"

The atmosphere in the tent was condensed, the fire in the middle was whistling, the wind and snow entered, and it was unstable, blurring the expressionless faces of the generals, and it was cloudy and cloudy.

A chuckle sounded, and a Taoist man in brocade standing on the left side of the table pretended to sigh softly: "There are evil spirits in the imperial court, and the decrees issued are vague, and it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false, so my Dongyan army did not pay attention to it. What's wrong?"

Before He Yan could speak, a handsome minister behind him suddenly said, "I wonder who the 'monster' Mr. Cai refers to?"

Cai Xi, the chief staff member of the Eastern Yan Army, is also the first confidant of the governor.

The general on the left snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "You have a demon atmosphere, you don't feel suffocated by Taikang people, and I, Dongyan, am ashamed to be with you."

Which side do you stand on? You should give me a letter from your mother.

After coughing lightly, the minister raised his eyebrows and changed his face, suddenly drew his sword, and with a clang, the shining blade made the generals in the field shrink their pupils, and with a bang, they all stood up and shouted angrily: "Bold!"

"presumptuous!!"

"Do you want to rebel, kid?"

Even Cai Xi, the aide, looked at him with interest, and said with a half-smile: "Why did the envoy want to rebel?"

Junyan Xiaosheng also went all out, and pushed the stunned He Yan away, raised the steel blade, the tip of the knife turned inward, and shouted in a domineering manner:
"The original intention of the establishment of the Dongyan Army was to resist Yunxiao's southward movement and protect the people of the three prefectures. However, you are in charge of [-] soldiers. If you don't defend the country for the Great Jing, it's fine, but you still want to allow the enemy to invade the country?"

Three days ago, the Taikang Central Committee sent the troops in Yubei to change their defenses and receive orders to wait for the enemy. However, the Dongyan Army did not move after receiving the order, which aroused the Central Committee's doubts, so there was this mission.

Of course, this is the official statement.

And the young man who followed He Yan was named Fang Junqiao. He was originally from Gaoxia, Qingzhou. He had been familiar with the art of war since he was a child. The Immortal Tongue' beat down the northern barbarians and the southern thieves.

However, since he was admitted to the imperial examination, he has lived in Taikang and served as the director of Menxia Province for many years. As a small eight-rank sesame official, his crotch is full of worry all day long.

No, upon hearing the news that Dongyan has changed, and Wanning Palace seems to be dissatisfied with the prince's ineffective control, so he will send someone with high morals and prestige to sit here again, and he immediately smells an opportunity to make contributions.

After a lot of gearing up, entrusting relationships, selling favors, and collecting gold and silver soft coins, he mixed into the "Taikang Inspection Mission". Although he was the third or fourth, no, the sixth in command, he was full of morale and courage. , so he was valued by He Yan and regarded as his right-hand man.

However, this 'femoral brachial' made him 'eat a whale'. He drew his sword in the Dongyan barracks and pointed at the governor of Shen Dadu. Even if you have nine lives, you are not dead enough.

With a thud, someone in the mission finally couldn't hold on anymore, his legs trembled, his eyes widened, as if he was frightened to death.

When a scholar meets a soldier, there is no reason to explain it, let alone these arrogant soldiers and warriors, they are powerless civil servants, and they clenched their teeth and persisted until this point.

After traveling all the way through mountains and rivers, exhausted by boats and vehicles, and after resisting wind, sand, rain and snow, and entered the barracks tremblingly, there was actually a military remonstrance, and there was only one thought in their minds: It's over, it's over, it's all over. Can not go back.

The silver bottle burst into water, and the iron cavalry protruded and shot.

There was loud shouting in the camp, and the neighing of war horses outside the camp, which seemed to be a sign of throwing a cup as a sign to kill the enemy chieftain immediately.

The situation is at a critical moment, and life and death are only in the blink of an eye.

At this time, there was a sound of tapping sandalwood, and the sound of swords, guns, swords and halberds in the camp stopped abruptly.

The situation where people outside the tent turned their backs on their backs gradually died down and returned to calm.

I saw the person above slowly raised his head, raised his brows lightly, and his face was flat, staring at this young hero with a look of admiration and pity in his eyes, he said softly: "I will also show the seat to Mr. Fang."

Fang Junqiao's face turned cold, his blade shook, and he said in a cold voice: "Don't come here, this officer was ordered by the central government to ask the Xundong Yan army, when are you going to pull out the camp? Do you want to resist the order?" No?"

He Yan finally came back to his senses, grabbed Fang Junqiao's arm tightly, and growled with all his strength: "What are you going to do, are you going to kill us?"

Fang Junqiao remained unmoved, and stared straight at the man above him, with the intention of swearing not to give up until he achieves his goal.

Cai Xi frowned. This kid is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. He was about to scold him, but was stopped by the governor.

After he pondered for a while, he said in a gentle voice: "The general will not accept the orders of the emperor outside. Now that your majesty is leaving the capital, Taikang hides the demon. I don't know the authenticity of the order, so I will not move for the time being."

Fang Junqiao pressed forward step by step, and asked again: "Then when are you going to wait?"

Cai Xi finally got angry, and said displeasedly: "How can the important matter of military aircraft be leaked!"

Tapping lightly on the desk, the general looked far away, and after pondering for a while, he said with deep meaning: "I heard that the crown prince is coming, so I will take the crown prince as my guide!"

He Jin's pupils shrank, and his heart skipped a beat, this person is actually a princeling!
After his mind turned upside down for a while, he finally remembered a certain key information.

Those of the Shen family are also relatives of Emperor Taizong.
