Chapter 249

"Brother Wei, but he already has the heart to retire?" Shen Zhang asked curiously when he heard Wei's voice.

Wei Jiuwen shook his head and said, "Princess Tianxiang, Lu que, Gu Qingcheng, Yun Xiansi, Su duo, Meng Cang, Li Chang, mu guorang, Shi Wenxian, ye Zhiqiu, Yan Zheng, Bai Xuguang, zhixingnan, Shen Lixing, duanmuye, Lin Qingyu, there are so many more. Don't you think there are some similarities between now and more than 20 years ago?"

When Wei Jiu speaks his names, the expressions on Shen Zhang's and Gu Huairen's faces are constantly changing. Especially when Wei Jiu says that they are similar to those more than 20 years ago, their eyes are flashing.

Because what Wei Jiu said is right. The situation now is very similar to that of more than 20 years ago. More than 20 years ago, the three heroes of the great Qian family rose up. Lu Chun, the leader of the three heroes, was ordered by the emperor to form the sky fire army. Countless heroes joined in the sky fire army. In the first World War of Northern Xinjiang, the sky fire army, which had just become an army, smashed the ambition of the Qingyang Empire to invade the south. Then they sent troops to the grassland, and the vast grassland Empire only lasted for less than two years under the army of Tianhuo.

Looking at the current Daqian army, zhugeju, commander in chief of Tianhuo army, Wei Jiu, commander in chief of Yulin army, Ning Darong, commander in chief of Shanyin army, Lu Chun and Gu Huairen, all came from the Tianhuo army of that year. The other commander in chief of waige army, Zhongyang Wang yuyuanpu, though not from Tianhuo army, was also transferred to northern Xinjiang during the grassland war, Experience in Fengxiang's army, which interacts with Tianhuo. The rest of the generals of Tianhuo army are now all over the twelve main armies and twenty-four guards of Daqian. They are all the meritorious old generals and the cornerstone of the town army.

Gu Huairen, Wei Jiu and Shen Zhang are all silent. Looking at the Huangyanjiang River in front of them, they all think of the past of their youth. In addition to Gu Huairen, Wei Jiu and Shen Zhang were all born in poor families, but they all reached the peak of their life with their own abilities. They have seen with their own eyes how the old ministers of the Xuandi Dynasty were replaced by their generation.

Things in the world seem like a circle. Cause and effect flow and reincarnation end. Now a new generation of heroes, led by Lu que, has begun to rise. Although at present, these people are not able to impact their positions, the future trend is clearly in front of them. The ten or so people mentioned by Wei Jiu just now are only a small part. In daqianjiu University palace, there are many people who can be in charge of the government, who can plan the layout, and who can lead the army to fight.

It is clear to all of them that after the war, Gu Jieyun and Su Leyi of the Fengxiang army entered the outer pavilion to take a casual job. Five to ten years later, when a new generation of talents matures, it will be the time for their generation to fade out of the court, because by that time, they will no longer be needed, no matter in the big dry country or in the future new emperor, Da Qian needs fresh blood and a more vigorous court.

"There are talented people in every generation, each leading the way for hundreds of years. This is the avenue of heaven and earth. If that day comes, I'd like to be a teacher in Fengming academy, just like Lei Shuai in those years, and give all my life's learning to the students in the Academy. " Shen Zhang thought for a while in his heart and said calmly. He was born in a poor family and was not tired by his family. Although he is now one of the thirty-six civil and military Marquises, he never thought of starting a Shen xungui family. And he had been fighting in the army for nearly 20 years. If it wasn't for the emperor's trust, he would have wanted to have a rest.

"Shen Xiandi is kind-hearted. He has been guarding the border for 20 years, and has been in the army for half of his life. Are you really willing?" Wei drunk said with a smile.

With a faint smile, Shen Zhang asked, "what about brother Wei?"

"Ha ha ~" Wei Jiuwen laughed. "I was born in a poor family. If I hadn't been supervised by the county master, I might not have been able to enter Fengming Academy. I had the happiest time in Fengming Academy. Later, I followed elder brother Lu to fight against grassland Qingyang. Now, as the commander of the first army, I'm the Marquis of Wu. I've had enough of my life, so I don't want to give up. "

Wei Jiu had a word that he didn't say. In fact, when Ji Zhiheng retired a few years ago, he wanted to leave. But at that time, the poor family declined and needed their support, so he couldn't leave. Now that a new generation is rising, he also wants to take a look at guangwo River and mountain, which has been guarding for half his life, and Jinghu hometown, which has been away for more than 20 years.

"Third brother, why do you talk about this at this time?" Gu Huairen, who has never spoken, looks at Wei Jiu and says that like Lu que, Zhuge Yan, Duanmu ye, and Lin Qingyu, Lu Chun, Gu Huairen, Wei Jiu, and Zhuge Ju were brothers living in Fengming ruishe more than 20 years ago, but they all shoulder heavy responsibilities these years. They get together less and leave more. This name Gu Huairen has not been called for a long time.

"I'm just thinking of the star court at this time, and my heart is filled with emotion." Wei drunk eyes jiongyishen looking at the south said.

"Why do you have this feeling?" Gu Huairen continued to ask. He knew Wei Jiu well and knew that he could always see places that others couldn't see. At this time, he suddenly said these words for a reason.

Wei Jiu saw that they looked at each other with a smile, and said, "with the rise of a new generation of Daqian, we old people will make different choices because of our personal nature, our own position and family interests. How do you think the Chiu family, the Chai family and the Xie family, the three Shiqing families under the Tianxing royal family, should choose

Shen Zhang was stunned when he heard the words. He didn't expect that the reason why Wei Jiu said such a thing was this. After thinking about it, he said, "Qiu Shi is loyal. Although Qiu Yue and Qiu Kui have come back now, they are more to save the people in Mingzhu county. They are just the collateral branches of Qiu Shi, and can't represent the whole Qiu Shi. Now Qiu Xu, the head of Qiu's family, should choose to live and die together with Tianxing, As for Xie's and Chai's, it's hard to say yet. "

"The Chiu family will certainly not surrender if they meet the loyal people after the country is conquered and are upright and honest." Gu Huairen said with certainty that he was very clear about Lu Que's attitude towards the imperial family of Tianxing, and that the Emperor gave Lu que full power over the war in southern Xinjiang, which also proved the idea of Ziji hall. However, the Qiu family is the only exception among the many powerful families in Tianxing. Lu que wanted to return Qiu lie's gift of the mountain and river situation map of Tianxing and Nanli thirty-six counties. After this war, whether the Qiu family came down or not, it will surely survive. Qiu Xu knew this after meeting his daughter Gu Qingcheng.

Moreover, according to Qiu Xu's information collected by waige, even if Qiu Xu didn't know about it, he would choose to fight until the last moment. You should know that Qiu Qiao, Qiu lie's daughter, is now the star queen. From the beginning, the Qiu family stood behind Yan Wensheng, the fourth prince, and supported him to win the throne.

"As for Xie and Chai, they will not make any choice before the battle of Hekou or the battle of Heyan." Gu Huairen continued. They set up their country and take care of their family. They are also the top-ranking xungui of Daqian. They can still guess what he thinks about Tianxing Shiqing. A family like this will not easily bet until the overall situation is completely clear.

Wei Jiuwen shook his head in disapproval and said, "second brother, this time is different from the past. According to the intelligence of the foreign affairs department, the star king is not in Zhongxing City, the capital of the king, or even in the Middle Kingdom. I'm not sure about the Chai family, but the Xie family, judging from their past style, maybe they will bet ahead of time to protect the family's foundation. "

Gu Huairen reached for a wisp of Chin's short beard, thought for a moment, and said, "you may be right, but Tianxing is now the head of Xie, Chai and Qiu, who are in charge of government affairs. Chai and Qiu are staring at him. Even if the Xie family has this idea, they can't do anything. Qiu Liangzhi, the Prime Minister of Tianxing Kingdom, has been living outside Zaifu for 15 years. What can we think of? With his loyalty to the Tianxing royal family, he must be watching every move of the Xie family

"With the style of Xie's family, he can be one of the three top ministers of the world. This is really ~ alas ~" Wei Jiujiu sighed. In his heart, he looked down on the hypocritical Xie family, even if the Xie family's choice would be beneficial to Da Qian.

"Maybe sometimes the biggest position is to have no position. If you fall with the wind, you can stand still." Shen Zhang also sighed. Although he was born in a poor family, he was once a minister of Qian Emperor Yu Yuanxu's hidden residence. He may not be as resolute and resolute as Wei Jiu, but he has a better grasp of human nature than Wei Jiu. He knew that each person and family played a different role. The reason why the Xie family had such a bad reputation might be the Xie family's intention. If the Xie family were like the Qiu family, they might have been suspected by the star royal family and lost their family.

Gu Huairen took a deep look at Shen Zhang when he heard the speech. Shen Zhang's words told us the truth of life of many rich families that had never been publicized. Although it did not include his decision to take care of the country and family, Shen Zhang could see through this and was sure to live up to his identity as the leader of the emperor. However, since Shen Zhang said these words in front of him, maybe he was ready to withdraw.

"Now we all have to see the results of the battle at Hekou. As long as Qing Cheng can contain Qiu Xu's army, let Fengxiang's main force cross the Guangji River, and then encircle and annihilate Tianxing's south line army, we can sweep Tianxing in two months. At that time, no matter how Tianxing Qinggui's family chooses, it doesn't matter." Gu Huairen said.

"Second brother is not worried about the safety of the city? There are more than 100000 troops in Qiu Xu's hands now. Although Qingcheng is commanding Fengxiang yunqi, only 10000 people have been brought in this time. " Wei drunk not without worry said.

Gu Huairen's heart sank slightly when he heard the speech, but he still said, "it's war time. First she is the leader of Da Qian's army, and then she is my daughter." Speaking of this, Gu Huairen saw Wei Jiu and Shen Zhang's smiling face and said, "well, the fact is that I believe in Lu's judgment. If I'm not sure about something, Lu won't do it, let alone let Qingcheng do it."

"It seems that there will be another double statue in the Red Leaf Valley of Fengming academy, even in the imperial courtyard." Wei said with a smile, and they all looked at each other with a smile. Last year, they had dealt with Lu que, and when Lu Que and Gu Qingcheng came out of xiyuanze at the beginning of this year, they met Lu Que in zhennanguan. They were both happy and admire their younger nephew, but if Lu que had any weakness or weakness, That must be Gu Qingcheng.

In their eyes, Lu Que and Gu Qingcheng are a perfect couple. Now that Lu que has agreed to Su Leyi's plan and let Gu Qingcheng lead the army to attack Qiu Xu's army, Lu que will do so only if he has a 70% chance of winning. They are all looking forward to the good news from Hekou.

Meanwhile, in Heyan Prefecture, Xie Daoxian was holding a letter that had just been opened, and was walking in the main hall with a frown.

Xie Daoquan, who just walked into the main hall to report military affairs, saw Xie Daoxian's face haze and jumped. When he saw Xie Daoxian holding the letter with Xie's family emblem in his hand, he quickly walked to Xie Daoxian and said in a low voice, "brother, but father's letter? What happened at home? "

"It's not my father's letter, it's elder sister Chang. In her letter, she said that she has left for the South and will come to us in a few days." Xie Daoxian shook his head and said as he handed the letter to Xie Daoquan.

"Why did elder sister Chang come to Heyan city at this time?" Xie Daoquan looked at the contents of the letter quickly. It was really the handwriting of elder sister Xie Daoqin. The letter only said that she had left, but did not say what the purpose of this trip was.

"I'm thinking about that, too." Xie Daoxian casually found a chair to sit down and said, "elder sister Wu Chengchi, these years is not travel mountains, or closed door hard, I can't guess why she came here at this time."

"Could it be that my father was worried about our safety, and that's why I let my elder sister come here." Xie Daoquan thought for a while and said, "after all, elder sister Chang has been in the realm of catastrophe for many years. Martial arts cultivation is the first person in our generation. Even compared with the older generation, it's not inferior."

"If elder sister Chang came here just for this reason, it would be the best. If elder sister Chang was here, I would be more relieved about many things. But I'm afraid my father has another purpose. " Xie Daoxian some tangled said.

"Another purpose?" Xie Daoquan was stunned when he heard the speech, and then he said with some disbelief, "brother means that his father plans to negotiate with Da Qian, and then let him open the city and surrender."

"Speak carefully." Xie Daoxian took a sharp look at his younger brother when he heard the speech. Then he went to the main hall and looked out carefully. He saw that the county guards were standing 50 meters away. He closed the main door and said, "this is what I am most worried about. My father only has Xie family in his heart. Now the situation is like this, and the king is not in the capital, Maybe my father really has another plan in mind. "

When Xie Daoquan's eyes darkened, he grabbed Xie Daoxian's sleeve and said, "brother, it's Wang en who makes Xie's family what they are today. Although my Xie family's reputation is not very good, it's just a way to protect ourselves. How could my father make such a decision at a time of crisis? "

Xie Daoxian didn't say a word, but his bare hands holding the armrest of the chair still showed that he was not calm at this time. According to his own opinion, he would rather die here than bow to Da Qian.

However, as a general of Tianxing, he is also the legitimate son of Xie family, the future owner of Xie family. He carries the lives of more than ten thousand children of Xie family. If his father in Wangdu forces him to survive the family, as a son of man, he really has no way at all. Now he can only hope that his elder sister Xie Daoqin will come here, just to help him guard the city, instead of forcing him to submit with his father's letter or Xie family token.

"By the way, you come here at this time, but you have something to tell me." See common brother Xie Daoquan Leng there, Xie Daoxian heart flashed a glimmer of gratification, asked.

"Oh, I'm here to tell my elder brother that the golden soup, rolling oil and stone stones ordered by my elder brother a few days ago are all ready and have been transported to the four city walls." Speaking of this, Xie Daoquan hesitated a little.

"Anything else?" Seeing his brother's expression, Xie Daoquan asked.

"In the morning, I met pan Juchuan. He came to me and asked for some solid earth baskets. He said that when the second son of the Chai family came, he would hoist them into the city with ropes."

"Master Chai? You mean Chai yuanyan? What is he doing here? " Xie Daoxian frowned at the news. He instinctively felt that something was wrong. Elder sister Xie's letter arrived in the morning. Pan Juchuan learned that Chai yuanyan was going to Heyan City, so he came to find the earth basket. It means that he and Chai Yuanjian probably knew the news in the morning. That is to say, elder sister Xie Daoqin and Chai yuanyan, the second son of the Chai family, probably left Zhongxing city at the same time, Even coming in the same way.

But now that the king is not in Wangdu, the three heads of Qiu, Xie and Chai are in charge of their own affairs. Why do they send their children to Heyan city at the same time?

"I don't know. I asked pan Juchuan several times, but he didn't say anything." Xie Daoquan shook his head and said.

Xie Daoquan walked back and forth in the house two times, suddenly said, "go, let's go to Chai Yuanjian."

At the same time, Chai Yuanjian and pan Juchuan are standing on the wall, looking at the continuous barracks ten miles away. Pan Juchuan said to Chai Yuanjian, "brother-in-law, what is the reason for the second son to come to Heyan city at this time?"

"We Tianxing have four storage rings. One is in the king's hand, and the other three are in Xie, Chai and Qiu's family. My father already knows what's going on here. This time I asked my second brother to come here to see if we can send a batch of grain with the storage ring. Once this trip is successful, we can stick to it in this way for more time." Chai Yuanjian looked around and said to pan Juchuan.

"But the north side of Heyan city has been blocked by Fengqi. Qingqi has to inspect many times a day. Can the second young master really come over?" Pan Juchuan asked anxiously.

"Among the people who came with the second younger brother was sister Daoqin of the Xie family."
