Chapter 39
Dicheng, which is all over the country.
In the spring of March, the grass grows and the warblers fly, the thawed Yuwu River flows through the green grassland, unknown flowers bloom in the golden sunshine, the shepherd drives the sheep with his whip, and the horses run happily on the grassland. Everything is so peaceful and natural.
However, Huhanlunye's mood did not become clearer because of the arrival of the new year. Since Jingming sent a team of soldiers to escort him back to the tribe last winter, King Rongdi no longer summoned him to the Khan Court to consult.
He couldn't figure it out, since he had just suffered a defeat, why did King Rong Di act as if he had abandoned their tribe?In the past, there were times when he was defeated in battles with the Qing army, but that was because King Rongdi didn't alienate himself so much?
Huhanlunye sat in the dome tent all day and drank highland barley wine one after another. The spicy and cold wine cooled down his sincere and loyal heart bit by bit. The opposite of King Rong Di's cold attitude was Jing Ming. Often send a team of people to condolences.
People's hearts can't stand neglect and enthusiasm, and as time goes by, Huhanlunye begins to resent King Rongdi.
In Dicheng, Feng Qing was standing under the eaves in a vermilion dress to play with the birds. In the iron cage, a lark flapped its wings and hopped up and down singing. Jing Ming happened to see this scene when he went out of the house to relax after finishing the military affairs in the city. He smiled. With a smile, he walked over quickly.
That lark was only caught by Feng Qing insisting on dragging himself along for a night in ambush on the grassland a while ago.
Thinking of Feng Qing's expression of raising his head slightly, raising his eyebrows, squinting his eyes sideways, and snorting coldly, the corners of Jing Ming's lips would rise unconsciously, and his heart would soften accordingly.
"Feng Qing." Jing Ming walked to Feng Qing and called out.
"The great general who manages everything every day is finally willing to come out to enjoy the bright spring scenery?" Feng Qing glanced at him with the end of his eyes and said with a smile.
Feng Qing is eloquent, but Jing Ming can't talk to him, so he can only stand beside him and watch him play with birds.
After a while, Feng Qing asked: "Is there any difference between the letter that Huhan Lunye wrote to you recently and the previous one?"
"I feel that his tone has become a little more friendly, and he has become more talkative. He is willing to tell me some common things about Rongdi people." Jing Ming thought for a while.
After hearing this, Feng Qing smiled and said, "It won't take long for him to become our most powerful pawn."
"How do you say that?" Jing Ming frowned.
Feng Qing turned her head and gave him a blank look, stretched out her pale fingers to push his forehead, and said with hatred, "You...how did you survive in Quyang all these years?"
Jing Ming was startled, for some reason, a strange image flashed in his mind: Feng Qing, with her hair in a bun, was wearing the coarse cloth clothes worn by the head of the peasant family, standing at the door with her hips akimbo, blaming him for coming home late.
Jing Ming subconsciously grabbed Feng Qing's fair hand, and stared blankly at Feng Qing who was looking forward to the colorful eyes.
Feng Qing was stunned by his sudden action, he blushed slightly, withdrew his hand, turned around and was about to leave, Jing Ming came back to his senses and hurriedly ran up to him and asked, "Why did Huhanlunye become Our most powerful pawn?"
"Do you still remember that before the war with Rongdi, I asked you to capture Huhan Lunye alive, and none of the other Rongdi soldiers would be kept?" Feng Qing glanced at him and said.
"Yes. I remember. Huhanlunye is a good general. It would be a pity to kill him." Jing Ming nodded.
"Tsk..." Feng Qing frowned, it seems that this person's ability to live in Quyang is not because the city is too deep, but because his mind is too simple.
Seeing Feng Qing's displeasure, Jing Ming was stunned, not knowing where he said something wrong.
Feng Qing sighed and said: "I let you keep him alive because I didn't appreciate his talent as a leader. No matter how strong the friendship between people is, it can't stand doubt. Just think about it, if you lead troops out However, in the end, the enemy wiped out all my soldiers, leaving you alive, entertaining you with delicious food and drinks, and finally escorting you to your country with the most solemn etiquette. What will King Qing think at this time? Did you fail the expedition because of a bad start?"
Jing Ming took a deep breath, he turned his head to look at Feng Qing and said, "You mean, King Rongdi suspects that Huhanlunye is colluding with our army?"
Feng Qing shrugged and said with a smile: "This meeting is finally enlightened."
"But Huhanlunye doesn't intend to join us?" Jing Ming asked.
"People's hearts are made of flesh, not iron. They cannot stand being neglected and distrusted again and again, so people's hearts will always change." Feng Qing glanced at Jing Ming, and this fool is probably the only one in the world who has been loyal to him for ten years. Let the country enjoy it.
Jing Ming bowed his head and remained silent.Seeing this, Feng Qing regretted telling Jing Ming these things. He was thinking about how to change the subject, but Jing Ming suddenly said softly, "Feng Qing, thank you."
Thank you for protecting me silently in the undercurrent of Qingting, and thank you for doing so much for Qinguo.
Feng Qing was stunned, he didn't expect Jing Ming to say that, and immediately smiled softly: "Feng Qing would like to thank you for your kindness in the past."
"Huh?" Jing Ming blinked, not understanding.
"Do you still remember a child you rescued in Wangji's Jiayu Inn in the winter of King Shangyou's 22nd year?" Feng Qing's voice was very soft, and his phoenix eyes were full of tenderness, he said: "At that time, I I thought that as long as I went out of the valley, I would be famous all over the world, but I didn’t expect that when I arrived in Wangji, my money was stolen. I couldn’t pay the money for the wine and meat at the inn, and the innkeeper asked someone to beat me on the ground. I thought I would be beaten to death just like that. In Wang Ji."
"You..." Following Feng Qing's statement, Jing Ming remembered the bloody child who was beaten at the Jiayu Inn that time.
Feng Qing lowered her eyes and said softly: "At that time, Feng Qing decided to go to ruin the country."
The love in the world is probably the moment when I miss you, but at the end I realize that in my heart, you are fine no matter what.
Sure enough, as Feng Qing said, after one month, Huhanlunye asked his bodyguard to bring a secret letter, saying that he would lead the tribe to submit to the country.
"Reply to him, and say that the surrender is not urgent. At this moment, our army is planning to learn the customs of the Rongdi people, and ask him if he can send a team to teach our army the way of life of the Rongdi people." Feng Qing read the secret letter , said to Jing Ming in a low voice.
"Huh? Why? Has he already offered to surrender to me? Why don't you open the city gate to welcome his tribe into the city?" Jing Ming asked with a frown.
"Aren't you afraid of luring wolves into the house? After all, Huhanlunye is from Rongdi, and their blood is flowing in their bodies. Aren't you afraid that Huhanlunye will join your army if the king of Rongdi raises his arms? Furthermore, you welcome the Khanlunye tribe into the city, this move is too ostentatious, in the eyes of King Rongdi, it is a great shame and humiliation, if he leads an army to attack, will you deal with it?"
After hearing this, Jing Ming nodded, and according to what Feng Qing said, he wrote the letter and handed it to Huhanlunye's personal attendant to take it back.
Huhanlunye was very straightforward. After receiving Jingming's letter, he quickly picked out a group of Rongdi people to send them. There were horse trainers, women who could make kumiss, and swordsmiths who could forge scimitars.
A group of people sent by Huhanlunye not only brought the customs and habits of the Rongdi people to Jingming and the others, but also brought them new tactics of bending bows, riding and shooting.This tactic discovered its strengths when Jingming fought with the Rongdi people. The soldiers wore curved bows and could hit a hundred shots on horseback. This tactic could carry out a powerful assault.
So the soldiers in Dicheng quickly replaced the wide-sleeved clothes with short and sharp Hu clothes. After wearing the dark clothes, the next step is to replace the heavy and slow chariot with horseback archery.After finishing these, Jing Ming ordered to replace the food of the whole army with dried beef and mutton and kumiss, which is easy to carry and saves the link of transporting the rations of the whole army, which greatly improves the flexibility of the whole army.
After this transformation, the Qing army's combat effectiveness has been improved several times. The army brought back by Jingming from Mobei in the history books is called a "powerful soldier", and it is described that wherever the soldiers go, it is like a gust of wind sweeping the fallen leaves. , called Jingming's reform "Hu Fu Riding and Shooting".
Chu Yan City.
The peach blossoms are shining brightly, the spring breeze blows the peach petals, and they are flying and falling in the blue sky. She has a cute bun, and she wears a colorful dress, which makes the person look as beautiful and lovely as a peach blossom.
Everyone in Yancheng knew that the king of Chu went to the Ling country and brought back a princess who was good at singing and dancing. The people of Chu affectionately called her "Princess Phoenix".Ah Sheng looks very fresh, and his almond eyes are full of innocence. Except for his wild temper, this child is good, smart, and good at singing and dancing. His voice is like the chirping of an oriole in March, charming. Crunchy and lovable.
So when Ah Sheng appeared on the streets of Yancheng wearing fine clothes, the people of Yancheng stopped what they were doing and said hello to the Phoenix Princess.
A Sheng nodded to greet the people, and at the same time led the maid to walk around the bustling market.There are nearly 20 households in Yancheng. As the capital of the state of Chu, the people’s families are very prosperous. The streets are full of people who play Yu, zither, build, play the piano, cockfight, run dogs, Liubo, and Cuju. It was shoulder to shoulder, sweating like rain, and the curtain was raised.
A Sheng walked quickly among the crowd like a nimble little swallow, and accidentally bumped into a strong chest.
"Oh, it hurts me to death." A Sheng rubbed his nose and backed away again and again, and said with a puckered mouth.
"Girl, are you okay?" A blunt voice came from above his head.
A Sheng raised her head, just as she bumped into the man's cold and sharp eyes, she shrank her neck subconsciously and shook her head, "It's okay, it's okay."
After seeing A Sheng's appearance clearly, the man clasped his fists in salute and said, "The last general Bai Qi has seen the princess!"
Asheng was taken aback by his neat military salute. She looked the man in front of her up and down, and laughed out loud, "I said, why are you so reserved as a general? My brother Yunqi." It's the king of Chu, and I didn't see him with a straight face and a tense body all day long."
"The last general is just a commander, not a general." Bai Qi replied bluntly.
"Oh, it's almost the same." A Sheng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, you commander-in-chief can play with this princess for a while."
"This violates the system of respect and inferiority." Bai Qi took a few steps back and refused.
"I'm talking about you!" A Sheng stomped her feet, she stepped forward and grabbed Bai Qi's arm and said, "I want you to play with me, if you dare to refuse, I will complain to brother Yunqi, saying that you bullied me!" I!"
Bai Qihuo has never seen such an overbearing and unreasonable girl at his age, his face turned red and then turned pale, his body was stiff and he was dragged by A Sheng to run around in the streets of Yancheng.
Sometimes, ignorant feelings arise from such ordinary encounters. The princess, who is as gorgeous as a peach blossom, breaks into the heart of the cold-blooded general unexpectedly in a brutal way, and it will never be erased in this life.
