Chapter 148 – Who first saw his gray head?
I thought that after getting close to the Maolong area, I had to spend some effort to sneak into the south, but soon Xu Beihao realized that the situation was unexpected, tens of thousands of refugees started to migrate madly along the two sides of the post road, among them, there are many luxury cars with fresh clothes and angry horses, there are several lines of the post road in Beimang, according to the law, no one is allowed to step on the road outside of the army and horses, and those who violated the law are immediately chopped off, and many of the clan’s sons have already taken their lives to test the determination of the female empress of Beimang, so even if they are fleeing in a hurry, there are no powerful families who dare to step on the post road. Even if they are fleeing in a hurry, there are no powerful families who dare to step on the post road, the good thing is that there is a huge flow of people, and they have already stepped on both sides of the post road to create two flat paths, so that the passage of cars and horses is not impeded, but only traveled slowly and stagnantly, the North Mang post road is intertwined like a net, the carriage where Xu Beihao is going down against the current, and the iron horsemen of the military towns who are constantly speeding up to arrive at the post road from another post road are coming down south swiftly behind him, Xu Beihao instructed one of the Arrow Ridge Ride Lieutenants who accompanied him to probe for information, and only then did he obtain A let him more and more jaw-dropping answer, in Huang Song Pu has personally led 90,000 elite cavalry with the premise of the Northern Liang army confrontation, a Northern Liang iron cavalry is still directly killed through the emergency arrangement and up the defense line, straight to the South Dynasty capital stabbing, look at the momentum like a bamboo blade, is to regard the three great generals as nothing, regard the two hold section order as a display, to the South Dynasty temple of the civil and military officials to a nest end! Traditionally, the northern cavalry to the south to have this kind of vigor ah.
This number has not yet determined the cavalry since all the white horses and white armor, nature is the big snow dragon riding undoubtedly, it is a move, even tired of the Huangsong Pu would not be able to say that the tight line of defense is more loose, has always respected the positive victory over the odd south of the House of the King, presumed to be the Hulukou a campaign of siege of the city to beat the Yinqi handwriting, coupled with the military towns behind them, but also not that basket of soft persimmons on the foot of the rotten, only to transfer out of the 20,000 light cavalry to chase and go, but also Strictly ordered not to take the initiative to attack, more attention is placed on the construction of the defense line and keep a close eye on the remaining Northern Liang iron horsemen, and for the first time, the identity of the king of the South Court that a lot of South China’s dignitaries don’t take it too seriously, to the Gusei dragon waist two states to hold the festival order to give the two words do not leave room for the military arrangement.
The people of the southern part of the south dynasty can not care whether the generals are calculated, whether the chest, whether the North Liang barbarians will be decapitated afterwards, they only heard that the barbarians as long as the hooves into the city, that is the slaughter of the city, the slaughter of an empty city until, but also heard that even the North Liang knife this sharp weapon to constantly beheading out of the folds, 10,000 Dragon Elephant Army has been so fierce, Wazhu and Junzihuan more than 10,000 people! It was not enough for them to stuff their teeth, not to mention Xu Yan Tu’s 30,000 troops. If King Xu Yan comes to North Mang, can we, the people, still drown that butcher with our saliva? Who swore to us that as long as North Mang’s iron cavalry is willing to go south to start a war, they will be able to fill up the Ganliang River Loop with the corpses of North Liang’s 300,000 armored soldiers, piling them up to form a gigantic capital city of unprecedented proportions? Which son of a bitch dares to snub us to our face like this again, I’m going to punch him in the face and make him look for teeth!
Xu Beihao raised the curtain and introduced Xu Fengyen to a troop of cavalry outside the window with a smile, “It’s the troop of Huangyan town, the general in charge of the troop’s name is Gu, he is the son-in-law of Longwai Prefecture’s section commander, and he usually has a high opinion of no one. It seems to be really scared to you guys, this expression of the cavalrymen is almost like going to death with generosity, some years ago when mentioning the Northern Liang Army, they were all squinting and skimming their mouths.”
Xu Fengyen said flatly, “Night and day arrogance.”
Xu Beihao laughed: “Talking about me?”
Xu Fengnian frowned: “When you get to Beiliang, don’t always talk about how your Beiliang is, Beiliang is xenophobic, the military and the official world are similar, the pros and cons of this stubborn habit are not to be mentioned, in short, you have to take it easy.”
Xu Beihao nodded, “I have my own plans.”
Xu Fengyen muttered to himself, “It’s not really going to hit the southern temple with a single blow, right? This must have eaten tens of thousands of pounds of bear’s heart and leopard’s guts, who could be leading the troops? It’s not like Yuan Zuozong’s style.”
Xu Beihuan hesitated and slowly said, “Have you noticed that Beiliang is a bit like the southern foothills of the Johoran Mountain fields that we saw?”
Xu Fengnian asked, “Green and yellow?”
Xu Beihao slowly said, “The six righteous sons of the King of Northern Liang, Chen Zhi Bao, needless to say, can be a king anywhere, with his talent, he can start his own stove. Yuan Zuozong is a well-deserved generalship, it is certainly not difficult to stand alone, leading tens of thousands of elite troops can easily destroy cities and fortresses, but commanding the whole situation, it is not easy to say. Qi Dangguo, charging into battle, carrying the flag of the king of the Xu word reckless only. Ye Xizhen is good at yang strategy, known as the next Yang Cai Zhao Changling, in the end, is still behind the scenes shaking the feather fan strategist, need to rely on people. Yao Jane is a Feng Shui master who is familiar with the side door, has always been with the world, not to mention. Chu Lushan’s words ……”
Xu Fengnian laughed: “Among Xu Snap’s six righteous sons, if you really want to say who can barely stand shoulder to shoulder with Chen Zhi Bao, it’s only him, he’s a true all-rounder, as long as it’s something he’s good at, he’s proficient in all of them. My master’s reputation is not well known because of Zhao Changling, and Chu Qiu’er is in a similar situation with Chen Zhi Bao.”
Xu Beihuan continued, “Wei Fucheng Dianxiong Anxu Ning Emei, this group of young and strong generals, compared to Chen Zhi Bao, all have a big gap, not to mention the ones that favor you, His Royal Highness, are so few as to be pitiful. Therefore, excluding Chen Zhi Bao and Chu Lu Shan, the stunning martial generals in Northern Liang who can fight against Dong Zhuo’s stream alone, really can’t find a third one.”
Xu Fengnian smiled without saying anything.
Xu Beihao asked, “Could there be anyone else hiding?”
Xu Fengyen laughed, “Have you forgotten my second sister?”
Xu Beihuan said skeptically, “You also know that talking about troops on paper and leading troops in person are two different things.”
Xu Fengnian’s face changed dramatically and clenched his fists because he knew who led the Great Snow Dragon Riders to run to Nanjing Palace.
How touchy-feely Xu Beihao was, he also immediately guessed the truth and said bitterly, “If she can return to Northern Liang alive, I’ll be convinced.”
Xu Fengnian let out a long breath, his brows relaxed, closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the car, smiling, “Then you can be convinced now, my second sister had memorized all the military towns, fortresses, tribal villages, and postal station beacons and flints in Beimang before she was fourteen years old.”
Xu Beihao meticulously deduced in her mind, then shook her head vigorously, holding her tongue for a long time before asking, “Why?”
Xu Fengnian rubbed his face and said softly, “When she was a child, she made a bet with my eldest sister, and my second sister said that she would definitely lead her troops to kill the Nanking Palace before she turned thirty. The two of them bet on a military book and a box of rouge respectively.”
Xu Beihao snorted coldly, “Can military affairs be child’s play? The marching route of the Dragon Elephant Army was clearly precisely calculated by everyone in the art of war, fighting for greatness with military losses can be seen as buying time for you, what does your second sister count as?”
Xu Fengyen flirted, “You have the guts, next time you see her, ask yourself. I wouldn’t dare anyway.”
Xu Beihuan froze for a moment, “You even dared to go to Weak Water, you dared to kill the fifth raccoon, but you don’t dare to see your second sister?”
Xu Fengnian sighed, a little headache.
When he first practiced his sword, he gave her a meeting without talking, this time he went around in a big circle in Beimang, he would not be chased by her with a sword?
※※※※
That cavalry army deep into the hinterland, like a butcher’s ox, bypassing many military towns and dangerous passes, in the North Mang version of the map at the fastest speed to tear out an excellent curve.
The speed, the strength, and the clear goal were beyond the imagination of everyone in Beimang.
The first rider was wearing armor without a helmet, and in the young woman’s field of vision, the majestic silhouette of the largest city in North Mang’s Southern Dynasty had already appeared.
Behind the nine thousand light cavalry eyes are permeated with crazy hot worship.
Never knew that the original battle can be fought in this way, just like a big man in his own home wandering, encountered no resistance to disobedience of the child will ruthlessly reward him a chestnut.
Before each contact battle, as she said will be when and where with how many soldiers and horses. Because bypassed all the hardcore, with the Great Snow Dragon Rider’s military strength of the world, clean up, is simply effortless.
Dare I say that she is the mistress of this place in the Southern Dynasties?
All the way to the north is easy, but then turn around and go south is the hard battle!
But I even saw the gates of Nanking, still afraid of your grandchildren?
The woman’s face is not what the country, just extraordinary martial arts, temperament in no way mixed with half a bit of charm and tenderness.
She dismounted and took out a yellowed book from her bosom, ignited the fire folds to burn away the ash, looked up and glanced at the sky, her lips moved slightly, and then silently mounted the horse.
※※※※
Beiliang calendar winter snow always fall soundly, unlike the south like twisting, which makes the new in this barren desolate land settled a few children are very happy, Beiliang iron ore how much, how many war horses, how much food, anyway, are not they can touch the thing. Four children in the eldest daughter did not very surprisingly colorful, with the ordinary girls generally like rouge and powder, is the nature of the hot, like that swing, not like the ordinary girl that is so subtle, always hate to swing than the penthouse is also high. The second is the most intelligent, since childhood has been regarded as a child prodigy, reading and writing very fast, temperament is also introverted, are said to be like her mother. The oldest three looks most like his magnificent mother, the typical fortune of the north people south face, with his life will be destined to the identity of the noble incomparable very consistent. Perhaps this family’s children and grandchildren fortune are used up in the front three children, to the soil born and bred in the north of Liang’s fourth son here is a bit pathetic, as with the land of his hometown, he played from his mother’s womb came out without crying a single, will walk after the simple and silly, yellow and thin, nose often hanging two snot, and saliva mixed together, the House of subordinates also think that the female master is because of the birth of the death of him, privately on the The three young masters in front of the heart of love, only to the strength of the old four strange sense of evil, bold some of the young servants, when no one is around will bully a few times, in any case, the little guy like steel, not afraid to be pinched, that is, a few slaps, as long as they do not give stewardship concierge bumped into, it does not matter.
Twelve-year-old Xu Weixiong’s study is immaculate, well organized, without any extra decorative items, in addition to the four treasures on the only thing left to encompass the vastness of the books of all the schools of thought, bookcases placed in each book are taken Zhu Pen meticulous circle painting. Today she is meticulously writing the word “Yong”, the two counties of the Northern Liang Royal House is recognized as everything but calligraphy is not good, which makes the strong and aggressive Xu Weixiong drilled a bull’s-eye, vowed to write a satisfactory Kaiji, than the younger brother is also just, how can I lose to her? The true meaning of calligraphy, she has long been familiar with the heart, do not need others how to teach, straight pen stationed in front of the side when how to be considered pure fire, she knows very well, but really to her tip to write, always like earthworms twisted, which makes this fall wrote no less than 3,000 words of the Xu Weixiong is also a little annoyed.
A red lips and white teeth unusually handsome boy carried a body than his size is even smaller than a circle of the “body” to the study.
Xu Weixiong slightly raised the corner of his eye and ignored it.
The boy in the fancy clothes put down the corpse and said with a smile, “Huang Ban Er, we’re here.”
The “corpse” lying on the ground immediately stood up after hearing the sound, grinning innocently, hanging two slugs and drooling a lot.
This pair of brothers are Xu Fengnian and Xu Longxiang.
Huang Ban Er liked to be dragged by his brother, and also liked to be dumped backwards into the snow by his brother on a snowy day, the whole head was cold and cozy!
Xu Fengyen reached out to help his brother carefully wipe away snot and saliva, then haphazardly wiped it on his own sleeve, pointed to a bottle of dragon’s head to a big mouth toad’s waiting wind geodesic instrument in the study, patted Huang Banye’s head and laughed: “Go, play with the toad, remember don’t break it this time, when the second sister rushes people, I won’t help you.”
Withered yellow boy boy obediently went to squat quietly beside the big bottle, this time did not squat on the ground to undertake the copper ball toad secretly plucked up.
Xu Fengyin lying on the book case, yelled: “Second sister, still practicing writing, practice what Oh, go, let’s go to the lake to fish, big sister are there to set up embroidery stool.”
Xu Weixiong, who already has a young girl’s embryo, did not even look at his younger brother, Xu Fengyen, in the eye.
Xu Fengyen scratched his head and helplessly said, “Really not going?”
Xu Weixiong impatiently said, “Write another 60 Yongzi, I still have to read.”
Xu Fengyen, who was used to it, gave a smile, snatched the pen, spread out a large sheet of cooked rice paper, swish swish swish swish, wrote dozens of scribbled Yong characters, and only then handed the pen back to his second sister, “Look, you’ve finished, let’s go play together.”
Xu Weixiong glared angrily, but the young son of the Northern Liang royal family whistled, not caring a bit.
Xu Weixiong put down his pen and grunted coldly, “Just two quarters.”
Xu Fengnian laughed, “Alright!”
The three siblings walked out of the study together, and of course Huang Ban Er was dragged out by his brother.
Xu Fengnian asked, “Second sister, when will it snow?”
Xu Weixiong frowned and said, “It’s only frost, winter hasn’t even arrived, besides, this year there will probably be snow only a few days after the little snow.”
Xu Fengyen made a face, “Second sister, you are so smart, let the heavens snow earlier?”
Xu Weixiong reached out and twisted the youngest son’s ear, twisting it fiercely.
This year, the first snow in Beiliang really came as promised three days after the light snow.
Two young girls and two younger brothers to play snowball fight, is Xu Fengyen persuaded the second sister, abducted from the study to play together, of course, he and the second sister head, big sister Xu Zhihu and younger brother Huang Baner one head, because of the strength of the scary Huang Baner to his brother said only allowed to pinch the snowballs, not allowed to throw, coupled with in the second sister Xu Weixiong under the command of Xu Fengyuan, Xu Fengyuan played extremely structured, isolated and unsupported Xu Zhihu naturally give a lot of smashing down! However, after she surrendered, she secretly stuffed a snowball into Xu Fenian’s collar and was satisfied. Xu Fengyen grimaced as he pulled out the snow from within his clothes, while saying to his second sister, “Let’s go to the Hearing Tide Pavilion to enjoy the view, how about it?”
Xu Weixiong refused without hesitation, “No, I want to study.”
Xu Zhihu helped his younger brother pull out the snow and laughed, “A girl can marry a good husband, you read so many military books, do you still want to be a general?”
Xu Weixiong glanced at this sister who has been like an enemy since childhood, didn’t even bother to speak, turned around and left.
Xu Zhihu made a face at her sister’s back, Xu Weixiong seemed to have eyes behind her back, her figure paused, turned her head and said coldly, “Do you think Xu Fengnian can still play for a few more years?”
Xu Zhihu frowned his already very nice eyebrows, crossed his arms and asked back, “You know?”
Seeing that the situation was not right, and that he would be caught in the crossfire if he stayed any longer, Xu Fengyen pulled Huang Baner and hurriedly fled from the battlefield.
Only afterward did he realize that the two sisters had made a bet.
That year, the snow in Northern Liang was exceptionally heavy.
Xiao Shi Zi almost thought that God was a goose farmer, otherwise it could have scattered so many “goose feather” snow?
※※※※
Xu Fengyen entered the military town of Maolong by carriage under the leadership of a man covered in a black robe, and the quiet man himself was the horseman.
After seeing the man’s token, the Maolong soldiers who were patrolling the town at every step of the security guard stood solemnly.
General order.
A large Northern Liang, the entire 300,000 iron horsemen, only totaled nine.
Each of the six righteous sons of the great general had one, and the remaining three were held in unknown hands.
Xu Fengyen recognized the general’s order, and thus the identity of the horseman.
There was only one title, Ugly.
One of Xu Snapdragon’s Earth Branch dead soldiers.
In the battle of the Concubine’s Tomb, those who survived were actually not only Yuan Zuozong, but also this dead soldier.
The people he killed were actually not much less than White Bear Yuan Zuozong.
Xu Fengyen did not show his status as the son of the world, went to stay at the general’s residence in the military town of Maolong, just picked a secluded inn to stay in, the innkeeper and fellows have all long fled for their lives, but there are green birds around, it is not the turn of Xu Fengyen how to do it, everything is comfortable and comfortable.
Xu Fenian said to stay here for a few more days, ugly naturally will not have objections.
This stone-hearted dead soldier also had a fleeting moment of disorientation when he first saw His Highness, the son of the world.
His hand was trembling slightly as he wrote four of the words in the secret letter.
Shizi white head.
After waiting for three days, Xu Fengnian moved out of the city and headed south.
This carriage had not yet reached the Leigu military town.
A burst of iron hooves shook the earth.
No less than five thousand white horse iron riders came pouring in like a line of snow.
Xu Fengyen smiled bitterly as he stepped out of the carriage and met the iron horsemen chasing after him.
When the head of a horse galloped, followed by a slow march, the woman steered her horse to a dozen paces away from Xu Fengnian, looking down at him with cold eyes.
She originally had too many words of reprimand hidden in her stomach, and even thought of giving him a few horsewhips, and then tying him up to Beiliang, but when she saw the unusual and unfamiliar scene in front of her, the lips of this godly martial arts woman, who had entered Beimang as if there was no one else there, trembled, and could not say a single word.
Xu Fengnian wanted to speak.
She raised her horse whip and pointed it at Xu Fenian, saying angrily, “Xu Fenian, if you have the ability, you will die in Beimang!”
She turned her horse around and ran out furiously.
After she turned her back to the white-haired man, her vision blurred and she covered her heart with one hand.
Xu Fengyen stood frozen in place, looking up at the sky and reaching out to cover the blinding sunlight.
The Ruoxue Iron Cavalry came and went in a hurry.
Xu Fengyen was about to return to the carriage when a barefooted black-clothed teenager fell diagonally from the sky with a loud crash, smashing out a huge pit.
Walking out of the carriage and standing beside the horse, Xu Beihao’s mouth dropped open.
The black-clothed teenager was originally a naive smile, looking dazedly at his brother, suddenly howling, and then issued a hiss towards the north, Xu Beihuan covered his ears can not withstand, the two horses are on the spot blood flow and die a violent death, Xu Beihuan if not have a dead man ugly hitchhiking arm, the next scene is not much better. Only Xu Fengnian, who has no more rhubarb court in his body, did not suffer at all.
The black-clothed boy squatted down and carried his brother, who he thought was seriously injured, and thought of just carrying him home.
Xu Fenian patted Huang Ban’er’s head and laughed, “I’m fine, you go and stop second sister first, don’t let her lead the troops northward.”
Huang Barbarian shook his head vigorously.
The heavens and the earth were not as big as him protecting his brother on his back.
Xu Fenian patiently said, “Be obedient, we three siblings will go home together.”
While Huang Ban’er was carefully putting down Xu Fenian, a rider returned.
