Chapter 169

Chu Zhao and Xiao Jue are talking outside. Heyan is in the house. He wants to eavesdrop. Even if he sticks his ear on the door, all he can hear is the wind outside. She originally thought to wait for Xiao Jue to finish and come back to ask what the situation was, but she could not wait for Xiao Jue to return to her room for a long time. Unconsciously, he fell asleep. When he woke up the next day, there were no Chu Zhao and Ying Xiang in Liangzhou Wei Li.

They left early in the morning with an escort.

After Chu Zhao left, Lin Shuanghe was the happiest. He Yan didn't quite understand this. According to reason, there was no unhappiness between Lin Shuanghe and Chu Zhao. However, seeing Lin Shuanghe's happy spirit, he is mostly sincerely happy for Chu Zhao's departure.

Xiao Jue is no longer like those days before the general Yin Yang strange talk, he Yan heart relaxed. Chu Zhao's early departure may be a good thing for him and others.

Liangzhouwei recovered its calm, and daily training was still daily, but Heyan knew that the quiet days would not be long. As Chu Zhao said, changes have taken place, and the appearance of the uto people will bring shock to the great Wei Dynasty.

On this day, he Yan was training bows and horses with the soldiers of Nanfu. In mid May, the summer of liangzhouwei was earlier than that of other places. The heat and heat covered everyone. As the days grew longer, the training time of both Nanfu soldiers and Liangzhou guards doubled.

She climbed over the mountain and dismounted from her horse, wet all over her body, as if she had been fished out of the water. He picked up a handkerchief from one side and wiped his sweat. This was the last lap. Tian Lang looked at Heyan and nodded slightly. The recruits from Liangzhou garrison can keep up with the pace of Nanfu soldiers. Even the skill of bowing and horse riding is different among Nanfu soldiers. It's really good.

The martial arts arena at the end of Liangzhou Wei has long been scattered. Hongshan people waiting to have a meal with Heyan are looking around. He Yan tied the horse, returned the bow and arrow, and strode towards them.

Wheat's eyes glared at him: "ahogo, how come your archery is getting better and better now? I just saw clearly that you hit the heart every time

However, in more than a year, the wheat has grown a lot higher. Previously, he Yan was able to hook his shoulder on tiptoe, but now he has to look up at him slightly. "You're much better," she said with a smile

"What's the point of complimenting each other," Wang Ba poured cold water on them. "Can you boast of a flower?"

All the people knew his temperament, and they did not care about him. They only went to the place where they ate. When they got to the place, they took steamed bread and congee. They sat down at random. Heyan took a sip of porridge and heard Jiang Jiao say, "do you know Rundu?"

"Rundu?" Before waiting for Heyan to speak, Huang Xiong said, "when I was chasing down my enemy, I used to pass by Rundu, a small city. The place is rich in grapes. Grapes are as sweet and big as purple jade."

"Really?" Wheat licked his lips, "run all far? I've only eaten sour wild grapes, but never sweet ones

Huang Xiong thought: "it's about a month's journey from here."

He Yan asked, "why did brother Jiang mention Rundu?"

Jiang Jiao sighed: "I went to find Shen Jiaotou today. I want Shen Jiaotou to send me a letter back to Beijing and ask for a new spear. When I went in, I just heard Shen Jiaotou and Ma Jiaotou talking

People look at Jiang Jiao and wait for him to finish the rest.

"It turns out that during the first battle of Huayuan, the uto soldiers divided into two routes, one to attack Huayuan and the other to attack Rundu, which is not far from Huayuan. Hua Yuan had more people than Rundu, and general Feihong was on guard. Although the losses were heavy, they were still there. However, the situation in Rundu is not very good. It is a small city, and there are not many troops in the city. If the uto attack the city, if there is no foreign aid, the gate will be lost sooner or later. "

"How serious?" Hongshan was stunned.

They are far away in Liangzhou, almost the most remote place in the great Wei Dynasty. The chickens do not lay eggs, the birds do not poop. They can't get any news. The situation outside has become so bad?

"What about that?" When wheat was young, he opened his mouth in a hurry, "you can't leave a city's life alone."

"Huayuan is close to Rundu, and the utoes of Huayuan withdraw. General Feihong can take the remaining Fuyue troops to support Rundu." The Stone says seriously: "run all not to fall."

"That's good," Hong Shan put down his mind. "If there are general Feihong and Fuyue army, Rundu will be saved."

They said, Jiang Jiao looked at Heyan: "brother he, why don't you speak?"

He Yan did not know when to start. She did not move the food in front of her. She did not know what she was thinking. She raised her head when she heard the speech. Her eyes were so bright that it seemed to ignite a fire, which made people surprised.

“…… Are you all right? " Wang Ba waved to her suspiciously?

He Yan took a deep breath: "it's OK."

She asked Jiang Jiao, "do you know what is the situation at the end of Rundu?"

Jiang Jiao shook his head: "I only heard half of it, and I was discovered by Shen Jiaotou. Shen Jiaotou doesn't want to tell me the details. I think he is afraid that Liangzhou Wei people will be unstable. " He sighed again, "but I just don't understand. We come to a place so far away and train hard every day. It's just to defend our territory when foreign enemies invade. Now the people in the Wei Dynasty are suffering, but we are still training as usual. What is this? What is the point of joining the army? "The young boys had a fire in their hearts, and they could not help it when the enemy came to the door. It's hard for them to pretend that they don't know like a shrinking turtle.

"You're not right," said Hong Shan. "If you can't use us, it means that the situation is not so bad, and the uto people are not very rampant. If we really want to use us, it shows that the gaffe has reached an irreparable level. The people of the great Wei Dynasty suffered more, isn't it worse? "

Jiang Jiao thought for a while, and felt that Hongshan's words were reasonable, so he stopped speaking.

Wheat asked: "a he Ge, do you think general Feihong will lose or win after supporting Rundu?"

"Why not?" Wang Ba didn't think about it and replied, "150000 Fuyue troops have lost less than 50000 when they were in Huayuan. There are still nearly 100000. Rundu is just a small city. There are not many uto people who want to come to Rundu. With the soldiers and horses in the city, even a fool can win. General Feihong has even defended Huayuan. There is no reason why he can't keep such a small city. I think you are all worrying about others. You are more worried about yourself than worrying about yourself. When can we eat meat all at once

He never liked what he said, and everyone didn't care about him. Wheat looked at Heyan and said, "brother aho, do you think general Feihong will win?"

He Yan looked down at the porridge in the bowl. The porridge was very thin and could be used as a mirror to reflect her face. She spoke slowly and her voice was calm: "I don't think he will support Rundu."

……

After dinner with Hongshan, he Yan didn't talk to them as usual. He only said that he was tired today and wanted to go back to have a rest earlier.

On the way back, he Yan has been thinking about what Jiang Jiao said before.

Uto attack Rundu? In fact, just looking at the distance between Huayuan and Rundu, he Rufei can not help. People all think so. Because of this, when he Yan said he would not support Rundu, even the most ambiguous wheat in weekdays would not believe it.

"Why? General Feihong has won the battle, and Huayuan can't be saved. Can't he be saved? General Feihong is by no means a man who can't help the dying! "

Hearing this, he Yan did not know whether it was joy or sorrow. I'm glad that the efforts of the past years have been seen in the eyes of the public. As a general of Feihong, he is also very competent. It's sad that other people will give all the impression of her to he Rufei. He Rufei is not protected at all, which gives him countless opportunities to take advantage of.

Of course, he Rufei would not go to support Rundu, because Li Kuang, the general of Rundu, had worked with general Feihong for some time. Li Kuang knew "general Feihong". If he was not a fake, he would show his horse's feet if he had a little contact with Li Kuang. He Rufei knew this, so he would try his best to delay it. He was afraid that he would not appear until Li Kuang died and Rundu fell.

In order not to be exposed identity, with the life of a city people buried, he Rufei can not do it.

At that time, she also stayed in Rundu for a short time. However, it was not Utopia who harassed Rundu people at that time, but the people of Xiqiang. I fought in Rundu and formed friendship with the people there. Now, when you hear the news of Rundu, you can't be indifferent to both public and private.

The room is close in front of me. Looking through the window, Xiao Jue's room is on. He Yan went to the door of his house, hesitated for a moment, and knocked on the door gently.

"In."

Yan he put down the letter and pushed it in his hand. The door was closed behind him. He Yan came over and said, "governor."

He took a look at Heyan. Seeing his worried appearance, he asked, "what's the matter?"

“…… The governor has already known about Rundu? "

Xiao Jue raised her eyebrows: "your news is also very smart."

"It was discovered by chance when the head coach Shen was talking to people." He Yan stepped forward, "governor, will Rundu be defeated by the uto people?"

Xiao Jue pulled the corner of her mouth: "no, he Rufei is in Huayuan. The distance between Huayuan and Rundu is only three or four days. "

He looks at ease.

He Yan bit his teeth and said, "well, what if general Feihong doesn't support Rundu? Or is something delayed on the way

As soon as she said this, Xiao Jue raised her eyes to her. He looked calm, but his eyes were sharp, as if to see through her. He only said, "do you think so?"

He Yan knew that he was suspicious, but he could not sacrifice his life in vain. She perfunctorily said: "I have never seen general Feihong. Although the world says he is powerful, it is only a verbal scene. He took 150000 Fuyue troops with him. A few days ago, he went to fight against the uto people, but he lost tens of thousands of them. It was so difficult to win the victory. It's not as good as you and me in Jiyang city. I'm not sure, but he's very bad at it He is a coward. When he hears about Rundu, he will temporarily retreat and refuse to support him. He will be a turtle with a shrinking head! "

He Rufei was scolded. He Yan had no burden. The feinu on one side couldn't help but flinch, and said: "no, general Feihong once supported him in the Western Qiang rebellion in the past. Rundu had been stationed in the capital, and he had an old acquaintance with the city commander. As long as Rundu asked for help from him, general Feihong would never have been saved. "It is because Li Kuang and she are old friends that Rundu is in danger!

However, this can not be said to others. He Yan was anxious and angry. He didn't expect that his good reputation had spread too far in the past years. Now, no one believed that he wanted to discredit it.

Xiao Jue looked at her thoughtfully, "what's your plan?"

Is that for her opinion? He Yan considered the tone, "governor, we have trained in Liangzhou Wei for more than a year. The Liangzhou Wei and the Nanfu soldiers add up to a lot. Regardless of the Nanfu soldiers, the recruits of liangzhouwei have been rubbing their hands to see a real battlefield. It is better to take advantage of this time to temper them. How about we support Rundu

Her eyes look forward to staring at Xiao Jue, hoping that Xiao Jue can agree to her request, although the hope is extremely slim.

Sure enough, Xiao Jue sniffed: "it's only three or four days to go from liangzhouwei to Rundu, and from Huayuan to Rundu. Don't ask for Huayuan's support, the soldiers of Liangzhou Wei go across mountains and rivers to support. Heyan, are you out of your mind? "

He Yan also knew that normal people would think so. I'm afraid Li Kuang would not dare to think so. However, she had to fight for the people in Rundu city. Heyan insisted: "governor, if you think about it again, Rundu is just a small city. Why do the people of Xiqiang and uto fight for this place? As long as Rundu is captured, Jinling, the neighboring city, will suffer. All the way north, the uto people are going for the imperial capital. "

"Rundu, never lose it!"

The young man's tone was obstinate, and feinu couldn't help saying, "Mr. He, we all know that Rundu can't be lost. But now even if the young master wants to go to Rundu, he has to ask his Majesty's permission. Once he comes and goes, it has been two months. I'm afraid that the war in Rundu has already ended. Besides, if general Feihong doesn't support him, the possibility of this happening is too small. You don't need to worry about it. "

In their eyes, he Yan's move is indeed groundless.

Xiao Jue said: "Nanfu soldiers have the position of Nanfu soldiers. If you want to stop, you don't need to mention it in the future."

He refused.

He Yan sighs in his heart, and the words of feinu are not unreasonable. Xu Xiang is in the court covetously, Xiao Jue just to avoid its edge, hide his talent, just came to Liangzhou Wei. Now, if we act rashly, we will inevitably fall into words. This matter really can not involve Xiao Jue, but the people of Rundu. What should we do?

"I know," she replied, somewhat depressed Say goodbye to Xiao Jue and return to my own room.

After he Yan left, Xiao Jue looked at the candle fire beating in the oil lamp and said, "He Yan is not right."

Feinu asked, "is the young master suspicious of her?"

Xiao Jue shook his head, and after a moment, he said again, "go and find out what happened to Rundu recently."

……

After returning from Xiao Jue's house, he Yan, after careful grooming, lies on the collapse. The lamp has been blown out, the moonlight outside the window penetrates in, falls on the ground in front of the window, such as sprinkling a layer of frost, the summer night is also lining a bit of cold.

Last time I went back to Rundu, it was several years ago. At that time, she was not general Feihong, but an adjunct general. Along with the Fuyue army, she resisted the Xiqiang people in Rundu. Rundu is a small city. The Xiqiang people killed people outside Rundu city and hung their heads on the flagpole outside the city.

At that time, the Fuyue soldiers and horses who went with them hated each other. Even though the number of soldiers was not dominant, they defeated the Western Qiang people after the fierce battle. The wound on her shoulder fell at that time. There was no way to pull out the arrow during the war. When the battle was over, he pulled out the arrow and nearly fainted.

The next day, Li Kuang's concubine came and brought a large basket of sparkling grapes. She looked at her with a smile: "Rundu has nothing good. This is the best grape. He will eat it slowly." Behind her, all the people of Rundu came. This man had a chicken in his hand, and the other man had two eggs in his hand. They all came to express their gratitude to her.

She was promoted soon after the war.

He Yan has deep feelings for every place where he has fought hard. She is very clear in her heart, if he is not going to support Rundu, Li Kuang guarding Runcheng, is just waiting for death. Without support, the people in the city will eventually be killed by the uto sword.

She can't let this happen. If Nanfu soldiers and liangzhouwei recruits can't move, even if she's the only one, she'll go to the capital. Rundu's troops and horses may still have a chance to survive.

But how can she go to Rundu? If she's running away now If you are caught in the future, you will be disregarding the military order, and you will be punished by the military order. He Rufei's true face has not been exposed. If she died now, she would have nothing in the future. That's all. If she died alone, it would cost tens of thousands of people's lives. But she was in the Nanfu army. If someone used this to blackmail Xiao Jue and thought it was Xiao Jue's order, what should she do?

However, she can't watch tens of thousands of people die in Runcheng.

Under the moon, Yan Liang found it difficult to choose between the two pillows. It has a small "Wu'an" carved on it.

When the imperial edict arrived in Liangzhou, Wu Anlang's seal letter was handed over to her with her crown and uniform. However, the official position had no real power. He Yan did not take it into consideration, so he carried it under the pillow. However, at first sight, a light suddenly flashed. She sat up and held the seal letter in her palm.Yes, she is not only a soldier of Nanfu soldiers now, but also wu'anlang, who is officially appointed by his majesty. Chu Zhao is right in saying that she is dominated by Xiao Jue, but she is not Xiao Jue's soldier. If she went to run the capital, as long as there was a letter, it could be said that it was her will. Xiao Jue didn't know. Even if we investigate it in the future, we can't even implicate Xiao Jue.

As for herself

Rundu, in a way, has her reasons for this situation. She took the Fuyue army to defend Rundu for one time, and she will be able to hold Rundu for the second time.

She had to go to Rundu by herself.

……

Having made up his mind at night, he Yan was no longer as tangled as he had been the first time. Since she came back to Liangzhou Wei, her daily training has never been left behind. She doesn't have to worry about her skills. By the reason of training bowing horse, he picked out the horse in the stable several times, and kept the favorite one in mind. He wanted to take it with him when he left.

Others, such as concealed weapons and whip medicine, were left in her room before, and Heyan was all packed. The most important thing is that she had been to Rundu before, but she didn't try to start from liangzhouwei to Rundu. It was a long way to go and couldn't go wrong. After all, Rundu has a hard time every day. If it goes wrong, it will not only delay time, but also human life.

There are always people in the camp who know the way.

Heyan pretended to be very interested in Rundu. In addition to daily training, he went to talk to people who had been to Rundu. Ask them what they have to pass on the way from liangzhouwei to Rundu, and they may take the wrong way. In fact, Huang Xiong has been there, but he doesn't know the way, so he has to give up.

Wheat asked: "does a he Ge want to go to Rundu to eat grapes, how suddenly to Rundu so concerned?"

Stone looked at Heyan's spirit of talking to people and bowed his head thoughtfully.

In two days, from liangzhouwei to Rundu, a complete map was drawn. Heyan spread out the map on the table. According to the shortcut on the map, she would go on her way without sleep. Maybe in less than one month, she would arrive at Rundu. But Li Kuang, can you really last a month?

It's no use thinking too much. The priority is to start now. He Yan carries the burden on his body, and when he leaves, he looks at the two things at the bottom of the wooden drawer. Two things are brought out in Jiyang. One is the dough that Xiao Jue bought for her during the water god Festival. Now the dough is shriveled and wrapped in her handkerchief. The other is a woodcarving given to her by Mu Yi. The female general standing on the top with a whip is majestic.

He Yan looked at it, then laughed, shook his head, put things back in the wooden drawer. She couldn't take them away. If she stayed here, it would be discarded just like the things around the house.

All the things have been taken well. When he went out, he Yan looked back at the door. The middle door was tightly closed, and the night was already deep. Xiao Jue had already gone to sleep. She left quietly this time and went to the dangerous battlefield of Rundu. It was hard to know whether she would live to see Xiao Jue next time, but even if she was alive, she did not know what the scene was when she met again.

"Goodbye." She said silently in her heart, turning and gently pushing open the door in front of her.

Outside, the night was deep and dark, and the moon was covered by dark clouds, and only a few scattered stars shone on the distant mountains. He Yan was stunned for a moment. For a moment, she returned to the scene when she first packed her bags and left home from the he family many years ago. At that time, she was also like this moment. She didn't know what the way ahead was and whether she would like to be happy or sad in the future.

But now it is not the same as many years ago, she is no longer confused, no longer at a loss, know the direction of her own to go, determined to make every decision.

In this way, move forward without regret.
