At the head of Qingquan City, the Tuanfeng flag, which symbolizes the emperor Daqian's reign, is fluttering in the wind. But at this time, the red Tuanfeng flag no longer gives people the same brightness and warmth as usual. In the shouting outside the city, it is more like a symbol of blood and death.
Under this flag, the figure of Wu'an Marquis Bai Yi in armor and cloak stands there like a stone carving. It seems that the cry of killing all over the city can't bring any fluctuation to his mind, and his eyes at the place where the cry of killing comes from don't contain any emotion. It's like the lives that are not alive in the fight now, It's a cold string of numbers in the war report.
At this time, the guards escorted him to the taxi pawns from the left rosefinch, and these soldiers looked at Bai Yi's eyes from time to time, full of reverence. For the enemy, Wu'an Hou Bai Yi was an absolute murderer. More than ten years ago, in the battle of zhennanguan, the Alliance forces of Tianxing and Nanli captured 200000 prisoners and were killed by him, which made him a murderer.
But for the soldiers, Bai Yi, Marquis of Wu'an, was another god of war after Lu Chun, the Duke of Wei. Lu Chun, the Duke of Wei, Yu Chuqing, the eldest princess, and Bai Lijia, the prince of Zhi, suddenly disappeared, and the military court of Da Qian was in chaos. At that time, Tianxing and Nan left the two countries to send troops to the north, and the troops arrived at zhennanguan.
At this time of national panic, Bai Yi, then commander-in-chief of the Longxiang army, stood up and supported the Allied forces of the two countries with the strength of one army. He persisted until the two armies arrived at the battlefield, and the three legions surrounded and destroyed the Allied forces of the two countries. Bai Yi was also named Marquis of Wu'an, one of the 36 civil and military marquis.
Moreover, in this war, because of the flexible tactics of Wu'an Hou Bai Yi, the loss of the Longxiang army itself was not great. As a great soldier, they are naturally willing to follow such a commander who can fight and win, but will not really take the soldier's life to fill the battlefield.
"Bai Shuai." At this time, Yan is in a hurry to the wall.
"How is Liu Xiang?" Seeing the arrival of Yan Zheng, Bai Yi's face finally has a trace of fluctuation. He takes two steps to pull Yan Zheng's arm and asks.
In the middle of the night, Yaxiang Liu Bujue, who is in charge of the government affairs of Qingquan city and all the border counties in southern Xinjiang, was assassinated in the prefecture. Although the assassin was killed on the spot by the Royal Sanwei expert who was following Liu Bujue to protect his safety, no one thought that there was not a cup of tea in the past, and the second assassin followed.
This time, it turned out that it was a literary official who delivered the situation letters of each county on weekdays. Because he didn't take precautions, Yaxiang Liu budoubted that he was stabbed in the left chest by the short blade that suddenly appeared, and he was in a coma on the spot. After seeing that, the literary official didn't wait for the Royal Sanwei master to catch him, he directly cut his neck with the short blade full of Liu budoubtless's blood, and died on the spot.
At the same time when Liu Buyou was assassinated, the two battalion generals, Rufeng and Lingyu, who were stationed outside the city, were killed. The deputy general led the whole battalion to launch a rebellion. The whole camp was in chaos. No one thought that the paoze brothers would raise their swords to them when they just had dinner.
Moreover, the chaos quickly spread to zuohongwei not far away. Similarly, the commander and deputy commander of the flying owl camp of zuohongwei were attacked and killed by the commander of the camp. Then, under the leadership of several captains, the flying owl camp killed out of the camp after zuohongwei created chaos.
After hearing the news, the commander of the two bodyguards who were participating in the military discussion in Bai Yi's tent quickly returned to the two bodyguards' camp. But before they could stabilize the situation, there were shouts of killing in Qingquan City, led by the four families of Lian, Bian, Zeng and Xiang. With the cooperation of more than ten small families and 40000 soldiers, they could not make trouble in the city, And push towards the wall.
In more than two hundred years after the founding of the state of Daqian, the ancient city of Qingquan, which had never seen any swordsmen, heard the cry of killing when the night fell. The people who remained in Qingquan city and had not yet moved were all closed their doors, watching the villagers and soldiers fighting each other in the main street through the cracks of the doors. At this time, many people did not understand why they were in the hinterland of Southern Xinjiang, This will happen in Qingquan City, where a large army is gathering.
At this time, Bai Yi led the left and right Zhuque guards to arrive. As the only two of the ten Phoenix guards with standing light cavalry system, the left and right Zhuque guards directly rushed into the rear army of the Third Battalion of the rebellion. The first time the Third Battalion of the rebellion saw a cavalry coming from zhibudi, they quickly retreated towards Qingxi mountain to the east of Qingquan city.
Bai Yi orders Shen Wuwei, the commander of the left Zhuque Wei, to pursue him with his tail. He and Jing Wenyang, the commander of the right Zhuque Wei, lead the two guards into the city to fight against the rebellion. With the left and right Zhuque Wei entering the city, Xiang Yong, an aristocratic soldier who could have had a stalemate with the Third Battalion of Changqing, is defeated instantly. On the one hand, he sets fire along the main street, and on the other hand, he retreats towards the East.
As for Wu'an Hou Bai Yi, after entering the city, he directly gives the command of Changqing Third Battalion to Bai Yi. He takes his personal guard to protect the seriously injured and comatose Liu budoubtless and finds a safe and secluded house for treatment. You should know that Liu Bujue can be the Prime Minister of Daqian. For more than 200 years since the founding of Daqian, there have been famous generals and military commanders who died in battle, but no cabinet minister has been assassinated and killed in Daqian. If Liu Bujue really died here, even if he and Bai Yi were able to wipe out the rebellion of the aristocratic family, it would have been a failure.
After summoning the military medical officer and Qingquan local famous doctor, Liu Buhui's injury was temporarily stabilized. Yanzheng then took time to find Bai Yi on the city wall to understand the situation in the city.
Hearing Bai Yi's inquiry, Yan Zheng sighed and said, "the short blade stabbed Liu Xiang's heart and lung. Although it didn't hurt his heart, it hurt his lung. Fortunately, it didn't poison him. At this time, the military medical officer and the famous doctor in the city have stabilized their injuries. Besides losing too much blood and staying in bed, they have no worries about their lives, just ~"
"Just what? It's time. If you have something to say, don't stammer Bai Yi looked at Yan Zheng's hesitant appearance and frowned, some dissatisfied said.
Yan Zheng took a deep breath and said with some embarrassment, "it's just that Liu Xiang's martial arts talent is not high. He practices martial arts more to strengthen his muscles and bones and prolong his life. It's hard for him to recover from such injuries only by his current cultivation. Besides military supplies, other supplies in Qingquan city have been transferred to the north of Changqing River and Yusi lake. We don't have the precious medicinal materials mentioned by the medical officials, so I'm afraid they will leave the root of the disease in the future. The medical officials say that Liu Xiang will cough every day when the weather is dry and cold. "
"Do you mean that as long as there are valuable medicinal materials listed in the prescriptions of medical officials and famous doctors in the city, Liu Xiang can recover as before after the general's recovery?" Bai Yi's eyes flashed a trace of light and asked.
"That's what doctors say." Yan Zheng nodded his head.
"If that's the case, we'll just go to the rare herbs that doctors call them." Bai Yi said with a smile.
"But I've sent someone to inquire about the pharmacies of the major hospitals in the city. For example, several rare main medicines on the medicine list have been loaded and transported to the north by them since they moved to southern Xinjiang. There is no stock in the warehouse at this time. Even if it's too late to book with them and send them to Qingquan City, how can we find them?" The speech is some don't understand of ask a way.
"The fact that there are no pharmacies in the hospital does not mean that there are no aristocratic families involved in the rebellion. Even if there are no aristocratic families, there are more than 100 aristocratic families in the counties of Southern Xinjiang in the city, which does not mean that they do not have either." Bai Yi shows a sneer and naturally says.
"Bai Shuai is right. Why didn't I expect that Liu Xiang's injury could be cured." Yan Zheng's eyes brightened when he heard that, as Bai Yi said, Qingquan city now gathers most of the aristocratic families in the southern border counties. With the financial resources and the nature of cherishing life of these aristocratic families, there must be a lot of rare medicinal materials in the family to save lives. Maybe there will be the few herbs needed in the list.
As for whether it's extortion or not, Yan Zheng can't take care of it. He and his third battalion of Changqing are responsible for the security of Qingquan city. Liu budoubted that he was assassinated in the prefecture. If Liu budoubted that he was seriously injured, not only did Da Qian lose his cabinet minister who was trusted by the emperor, but also his official career in the future would be greatly affected.
"Bai Shuai, I'm going to send someone to search the homes of those who participated in the rebellion first." Yan Zheng bowed his head and thought for a while. He said to Bai Yi that he was about to walk down the stone steps of the city.
"No hurry." Bai Yi stretched out his hand to stop Yan Zheng and said, "Liu Xiang just hurt his lung. The injury is not serious enough to drag on. It's better to wait until the chaos in the city subsides."
Yan Zheng thought about it for a moment. He nodded and asked, "Bai Shuai, what's the situation in the city at this time?"
"Although they have been trained simply, the soldiers of these aristocratic families are not fierce soldiers who have gone through battle after all. They are just local chickens in front of the army." Said here, Bai Yi took a look at Yan Zheng and said, "Yan Shidu, do you know that you have two mishandling places tonight?"
Yan Zheng is surprised when he hears Yan. He looks up at Bai Yi's face and finds that he doesn't mean to be blamed. On the contrary, he seems to have a little bit of his meaning. He gives a military salute and says, "Yan Zheng is a late comer. Please ask Bai Shuai to mention it."
"First, when the rebels of the three battalions outside the city come, you should not let all the three battalions of Changqing defend on the city wall. The three battalions under your command are trained by the Duke of Wei himself. All the three battalions are capable people who have followed the commander-in-chief of Xiaolu to attack and fight. In addition, with the Qingquan city wall as a support, the soldiers of one battalion are enough to stick to our army." Bai Yi stretched out a finger and said.
"What Bai Shuai said is that it was really because I was nervous in my heart and had some oversight." Yan Zheng is silent for a while and admits his fault. Then Yan Zheng salutes Bai Yi again. This time, it's not Daqian's military salute, but the disciple's salute when he sees his teacher.
"Bai Shuai, one must have two. I don't know what I missed tonight. Please give me some advice." After the ceremony, Yan Zheng asked sincerely. It's not terrible to make mistakes in the past and the future. The most terrible thing is that you don't know where you are wrong, so you can't correct it. You can only make mistakes all the time. And for Yan Zheng, this is the only way for him to accumulate experience and enrich his own talents.
Seeing Yan Zheng's attitude, Bai Yi's eyes twinkle slightly. From Yan Zheng, he seems to really see the shadow of Ji Zhiheng, one of the three heroes of that year. Among the three heroes of the poor family, Ji Zhiheng is not as good as Lu Chun's Tianzong wizard, nor as good as Bailijia's careful calculation. But he is the one who can sum up the past experience and lessons best.
Among the three heroes in the poor family, Lu Chun makes mistakes because of his comrades' friendship in the army, and Bai Li Jia makes mistakes because he sticks to the morality in his heart. Only Ji Zhiheng grows up to be the one who can hardly make mistakes. As a person who has experienced that era personally, Bai Yi feels that the words of this matter are too similar to Ji zhihengzai.
Bai Yi looked at Yan Zheng for a while. When he was a little uncomfortable, he held out his second finger and said, "your second omission is the same as the first. Even if you feel that there is something wrong with one battalion, you can send out two battalions. Leaving one battalion can be used as a reserve force and also to prevent emergencies. If you leave one battalion at that time, you can send out two battalions, The situation in the city will never develop into what it is now. Maybe the war will be over in the moment I lead my troops into the city. "
"Yes, it's really my fault." Yan Zheng took a deep breath and nodded his head. As Bai Yi said, if he left a battalion of soldiers, the chaos in the city would not spread to most of Qingquan city like now.
Now many people say that he, Lu Que and ye Zhiqiu are the top three of the new generation of students. Lu que, like his father when he was young, is even better than Wei Guogong, who was the first of the three. Ye Zhiqiu, on the other hand, is like a wise hundred Li Jia. Both of them like to use strange and dangerous weapons. This way of leading the army is absolutely impossible without excellent insight and consideration. As for him, he was like Ji Zhiheng, the only one among the three outstanding men who had a foothold in the imperial court. He also sought perfection and stability.
But now Lu que has become the commander-in-chief and is in charge of the military and political affairs in southern Xinjiang. Even Gu Huairen, the Duke of Dingguo in the outer court, Yu Yuanpu, the king of Zhongyang, and Bai Yi, who was the commander-in-chief of Northern Xinjiang for two years, have to obey Lu Que's orders. Although Ye Zhiqiu is not as good as Lu que, he is now carrying two battalions of light cavalry to contain nearly 30% of the animal tide, sharing great pressure for the main battlefield of zhennanguan.
However, he made such a mistake when he knew that several aristocratic families would act. Although such a mistake did not affect the overall situation, at least he lost to Lu Que and ye Zhiqiu in the first inning. Thinking of this, I can't help but blame myself. I blame myself for my thoughtlessness, so that things get worse. It's up to Hou Bai Yi of Wu'an to clean up the mess.
