lnmao.org, the fastest update of the latest chapters of Changan Fengliu!
At dusk, the setting sun hangs over the western mountains, and the autumn westerly wind hits the Qingra original battlefield, and the strong smell of blood dances with the billowing yellow sand. An orange curtain seemed to be pulled up between the heaven and the earth, and there was a bit of solemnity and sadness in the hazy.
Looking from a distance, the Qingluoyuan large pasture with blue sky and green grass, cows and sheep in the evening, is like a shura dojo in the world of ghosts. Broken limbs can be seen everywhere, many knives, guns, swords and halberds are inserted everywhere, broken flags and lost war horses are floating around alone, and there is dead silence...
An eighteen-headed yak drove slowly into the core of the battlefield and stopped. Garqin Mausoleum walked out, and dozens of riders quickly rushed from all directions, reporting to him one after another--
"Report to the Marshal, the silence in the Tang army camp is the same as in the past, but the number of crossbowmen at least doubled in the bow box of the army village, strengthen guard! Banners in the camp will not fall and the horses will shuttle and fight strictly. , There is no sign of defeat or withdrawal!"
Gal Qinling nodded slightly, and said to the lieutenants around him: "As expected. If Qin Mubai is really a fragile wine bag, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will not order him. Even though he was defeated today, he is not half-defeated. It can be seen that this man is indeed a commander."
"Report to the Marshal, I waited to search for the weapons used by the Red Tang Army in the battlefield, but found nothing, but found these strange iron beads. In some soldiers who died, I also found this kind of weapon. Tiezhu." After speaking, the little **** held up his hands.
Garqin Mausoleum took a few bullets fired by guns and took a closer look, then sniffed at the tip of his nose, frowning and said: "This is similar to the smell in the pits bombed by artillery in the past. By It can be seen that they are indeed the same kind of objects. However, that kind of cannon is extremely heavy and extremely difficult to carry, and can only be used to defend the city or pull out the village. Right now, Qin Mubai actually has this kind of small artillery that can be equipped with foot riding. ...It should be more powerful than bows and arrows! Tsk, you must be careful when you meet them in the future!"
"Report!——Marshal——" At this time, Yiqi ran from a distance, jumped off the horse and said anxiously, "Report to the Marshal, Zampo is here!!"
Garqin Mausoleum raised his eyebrows and was shocked--"What?"
"...Zamp, come here!"
"Class teacher, come back to camp!"
At this time, Tang Jun was in the camp.
An old military doctor asked Qin Mubai to crane his neck and raise his face, and after a careful examination for a while, he sighed and said: "Fortunately, fortunately. The arrows are non-toxic and they didn't hurt any bones. Pull up an inch, the young marshal's left eye may be gone."
Qin Mubai wanted to laugh, but his face trembled, and his left cheek was sore, and he said, "I use arrows. Maybe it's more accurate if I'm blind. I don't know. When I was injured, I might have been scratched by Liu Ya on the battlefield. I don’t know if you didn’t tell me when I came back."
"The battlefield is too tense and irritating. I really don't care about such minor injuries." The old military doctor gave Qin Mu white medicine while chattering, "Don't move and talk, the old man will give you medicine. Up."
……
Li Xueyan stood by, her face pale and she looked at Qin Mubai with shock, feeling that her heart was about to jump out. Look at him, now shirtless, with blood dreadlocks in his hair, a wound on his face and blood all over his body, and a stabbing in his thigh. He has just stopped the bleeding and is now wrapped tightly. .
"Marshal! How's the marshal!-Don't block me, let me in!!" At this moment, a roar of rushing thunder came from outside the tent.
Qin Mubai stretched out his hand and gently fended off the old military doctor, and said: "Let him in, don't suffocate him outside."
Yuwen Hongtai rushed in like an extremely hungry lion, ran to Qin Mubai, squatted down in front of Qin Mubai, stared at him with big copper bell-like eyes and looked at him for a while, and asked, "Is it all right? "
"What did you say?" Qin Mubai grinned reluctantly, and patted Yuwen Hongtai on the shoulder. "Relax, I am not that easy to die after a thousand years of harm. By the way, how about the Modao team casualties? Are you injured?"
"I'm okay, I haven't lost one strand of hair!" Yuwen Hongtai patted his chest heavily, then sighed and shook his head again and again, "It's just a pity, more than a thousand Modao died!... …It's all the elite veterans who make good knives with great power, what a pity!"
"Forget about it, brother, if there are no casualties, then it won't be called a war." Qin Mubai smiled and comforted him, "I'm fine, you fight for a fight, go back to eat and drink enough to rest. . Maybe you have to fight again tomorrow."
"Okay!" Yuwen Hongtai stood up and responded, suddenly turned his head and stared at Li Xueyan a few times, and roared, "You are noisy, noisy, why don't you noisy? You are not Do you want to marry a Tubo barbarian? Get married! Looking at us here is dead and hurt, are you happy? It's all your man who never got past the door!!"
Li Xueyan unexpectedly received a headache and cursed, like a little sparrow with nowhere to shelter in the storm, looking at Yuwen Hongtai with horror, she was dumbfounded.
"Heizi, don't be rude!——Don't go out yet!" Qin Mubai scolded.
"Hmph! I just can't understand your kind of princes who are born with good clothes and food, and live and live and don't know how to shame!" Yuwen Hongtai was out of control, but he cursed more vigorously, loudly. "I see it, you saw it today! Are we people born to parents? Let's take it seriously? Let's play with others with our heads here, you are delicious and satiated in the back It’s okay to hold on to look for trouble? To kiss, to kiss? To your mother’s kiss, what's the difference between this and recognizing a thief as a father?! Hu Manzi is never polite! People who should kill are still killed, those who should be grabbing land are still grabbing land! In the end, yes. We lost the woman and gave us a dowry and shame! If there are more people like you in Datang, it would be better to simply recognize the Tubo people as the ancestors, and what do we call the Yangyang Dynasty!"
Li Xueyan was dumbfounded, already at a loss, Yuwen Hongtai's thick fingers like a pestle all pointed to the tip of her nose and forgot to step back and avoid it.
The strange thing is that Qin Mubai stopped speaking, sitting quietly, looking at Yuwen Hongtai quietly.
More strangely, Yuwen Hongtai suddenly stopped scolding. Although he held back his anger and unpleasant words, he wanted to vent his anger, but when he saw Qin Mubai staring at him coldly next to him, he swallowed it all his life, gritted his teeth and clasped his fists, saying: "Brother, today we still It’s the following crime. What should be done in the military law, just do, I have nothing to say! — But if I don’t have anything to say, I must be suffocated alive! — I’m going to leave first. If you want to do the military law, you have nothing to say! People come to get me!"
After all, Yuwen Hongtai walked away in violent strides, still cursing along the way.
Qin Mubai still sat quietly, his expression as silent as an ancient well in the late autumn. The old military doctor stood aside with the ointment, not dare to let out the atmosphere. Li Xueyan closed her eyes, as if taking a deep breath, controlling her emotions extremely.
After a while...
"Mu Bai, can you do me a favor?" Li Xueyan said, her voice still calm.
"Well, you said." Qin Mubai said softly.
"Please be generous, don't blame Yuwen Hongtai." Li Xueyan said.
Qin Mubai raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Why?"
"Because he was right, he scolded well!...No one has ever scolded me straight and unreserved like him, like a bang, making me wake up." Li Xueyan smiled, but the smile was obvious. A trace of bitterness and helplessness, he whispered softly, "As he said, people like me have never known the sufferings of the people since I was young. Even if I have read a few poems and books, it is nothing more than abandoning the original and overcorrecting, living in the dreams I have woven and forgetting. The preciousness of reality. I was wrong, Mu Bai, I was really wrong!... Not only did I ask you not to blame Yuwen Hongtai, I also want to thank him, sincerely!"
"Not so much." Qin Mubai smiled slightly, and said, "He is a fierce eldest man, he has always been wrong to things and not to people. What he dislikes is just marriage, not you. One more thing It’s better to do less, if I don’t punish him, you don’t provoke him again."
"Thank you..." Li Xueyan bit her lip and nodded gently.
Qin Mubai beckoned his hand, the old military doctor recovered and continued to give Qin Mubai medicine.
"Why, let me come?" Li Xueyan took two steps forward and said, "Although I don't understand medical skills, I have a kind eyes and a light hand."
"It's just a medicine, it's easy. Okay, let the princess come! The old man's eyes are indeed not very good, and the oil lamp does not work as soon as it is smoked." The old military doctor handed the medicine bottle and other things Li Xueyan.
"In the future, I will change the medicine for the young marshal. Old gentleman, you can take care of more wounded soldiers." Li Xueyan said, "Since I have never been here, I have not done any business. Just learn some simple medical techniques from the old man, such as dressing and applying medicine. I can always do something..."
"This..." The old military doctor hesitated and looked at Qin Mubai.
Qin Mubai was facing up and closing his eyes, and was silent for a while, and said: "Okay."
Li Xueyan was relieved, finally showing a light smile of relief, first invited the old military doctor out, then knelt down before Qin Mubai, and whispered: "Thank you, Mu Bai..."
"Thank me for what?" Qin Mubai opened his eyes and smiled.
"Nothing is more convincing than facts; and only you can truly understand where my heart is...If you didn't wake me up, I'm afraid I will become an unfilial person who betrayed my ancestors. Woman." Li Xueyan said, "I should have been angry and sad after being scolded by Yuwen Hongtai, but it was strange. I suddenly felt a very relaxed sense of relief, as if a huge piece of pressure had been pressed in my heart for a long time. Shishi, Shunyang was removed...I know, my heart knot has been opened."
"Haha!" Qin Mubai just laughed.
"What are you laughing at? Don't laugh!" Li Xueyan was a little annoyed, and said softly and anxiously, "The words Yuwen Hongtai swears are ugly enough, and they are probably what many people want to swear. This should also include You. It’s just that you will take into account my face and curse!"
"Why, being scolded, you are still so happy?" Qin Mubai's expression became a little weird, and he smiled, "Would you like me to whip you a few times to make it easier and more liberating?"
"Okay, you can try it!" Li Xueyan replied without changing her face and heartbeat, only giving Qin Mubais medicine a two-point weight. Qin Mubai grinned with pain suddenly, and shouted: "Hey! Don't be so careful and get revenge on the spot!"
"Women are prudent, did you just hear about it?" Li Xueyan smiled, as if she felt relieved. This smile also showed the beauty and charm that had long disappeared.
Qin Mubai sighed inwardly. Xin said: "Well, the knot of the children with this problem should be solved!"
"Why, people often have to go through great righteousness or great grief before they can understand many simple and understandable truths?"
……
Li Xueyan just gave Qin Mubai a good medicine, and two military doctors hurriedly came to report that both Tantai were seriously injured, and I was afraid that they would not be able to wake up for a while. If it weren't for her outstanding martial arts and good physical foundation, she would have already died at this time. Now, half of her leg is stepping on the ghost gate, and when she comes back or when she completely falls in, it is all on her own.
Qin Mubai's heart was blocked, and he got up to see Tantai Shuangshuang. But there was a stab in the thigh. Although the injury was not deep, but after relaxing off the battlefield, it really hurt to the bone. As soon as he stood up, he almost fell down, scared Li Xueyan screamed and hurried to help.
At this moment, Hou Junji came. After standing still, he coldly glanced at Qin Mubai and Li Xueyan who hugged Qin Mubai and Li Xueyan, and said indifferently: "Should the marshal enjoy the beautiful blessing first, or listen to his subordinates to report on military affairs?"
Li Xueyan's face was sometimes flushed to the root of her neck, and she hurriedly moved aside.
Everyone is used to the temperament of Hou Junji, and Qin Mubai didn't care, and said: "Princess, go and visit Shuangshuang first. The idler retreat-Hou Junji, come and sit down and talk."
After everyone left, Hou Junji sat down in front of Qin Mubai without any enthusiasm. He picked up a pot of tea on the table and poured half of it, then sighed and shook his head again and again without saying a word.
"What's the matter? It's just a loss for a while, and then you become a lost dog?" Qin Mubai said.
Hou Junji still shook his head, using tea as wine and a new meal.
Qin Mubai was also anxious, so she looked at him quietly.
After a while, as if he was in a good mood, Hou Junji said: "Qin Mubai, you and I are really superfluous."
"Why did you say this?" "Didn't you tell me to pretend to be defeated?" Hou Junji shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "It turns out that there is no need to pretend."
"You mean to say that you are indeed not the opponent of Garqin Ling, are you?" Qin Mubai smiled relaxedly.
"Today's battle, I have tried my best." Hou Junji raised his head, looking at Qin Mubai with horror in his sweaty eyes, as if he had infinite fear and fear, he trembled, "Gal Qinling, Kunlun Iron Cavalry, it’s terrible! Really! I have fought countless battles in my Rongwu half-life, and I have been able to stop invincible. I have encountered many elite troops, and have fought many difficult battles. I have never had a battle like today. Help and despair!"
"Is it as exaggerated as you said?" Qin Mubai was still calm and said, "The Kunlun Iron Cavalry is indeed very powerful. We also broke him twice, and then safely evacuated. Right?"
"An Ran retreat? Fortunately, you can say it!" Hou Junji sipped fiercely, and said, "If Galqin Mausoleum is willing, he can completely defeat us by one blow. Original, just today!"
Qin Mubai smiled and said nothing.
"What are you laughing at?!" Hou Junji was a little angry.
"War, there is no if at all. What the facts are, that is what they are." Qin Mubai said, "Hou Junji, don't let me look down on you. Victory or defeat is common, but it's just a while. As serious as you think."
"Yes." Hou Junji said decisively, "Today's battle, the victory or defeat is entirely between the hands of Garqin Ling. If he wants to win, then he can win; he wants to let us live. Then we can evacuate safely. What is this called?...This is a cat playing with a mouse!"
At this moment, Qin Mubai frowned.
"Why, was I stabbed in my heart?"
"Hou Junji, if even you have such an idea, Nagar Qinling will be really successful." Qin Mubai said, "He is a soldier who wants to capture and succumb to others without fighting. This is a trick. It was indeed cruel. It was obviously possible to kill us or even the first battle, but he didn't. He let us come back, letting us fear and lose our confidence, and the army was disintegrated."
"I understand the truth; anyone can say it." Hou Junji eagerly said, "But, who can control his own mind and not think about it?"
"I can. You, and you must be able to." Qin Mubai said frankly and frankly, "The soul of the generals. If the generals are messed up, it is like a person's soul is gone, then this battle really does not need to be fought. ."
Hou Junji was silent, staring straight at the teapot, as if in a daze.
"What are you thinking?" Qin Mubai asked.
"I'm thinking about a problem you didn't expect." Hou Junji said lifelessly.
"Speak out and listen."
"Okay, I'll tell you. I want to see if you are as calm as you said, or just boastful." Hou Junji sneered and said," The strength of the Garqin Mausoleum lies not only in the Kunlun Iron Cavalry and the strategy of warfare, but also his profound city and mind. In this first confrontation, he sent his direct line of elite Kunlun Iron Cavalry, vowing to win the first victory. In addition to defeating our confidence, it is also to show some people."
Qin Mubai smiled slightly, and said, "As you mean, the Garqin Mausoleum desperately needs a victory to stabilize their Zanpu, and at the same time put pressure on me, and let your majesty and the court Disappointed or jealous of me, right?"
Hou Junji looked up in surprise, "You really are not stupid!"
"Only occasionally." Qin Mubai smiled habitually, but his face twitched with pain, and said, "For a long time, Hu people like to play this game when fighting with us. They know that we are the generals of the Central Plains. Soldiers are out, not only have to face the threat of the enemy, but also bear the pressure after they come. Especially this time, especially me. Now that I have lost my first battle, the Garqin Mausoleum does not know how many workers will be sent to Changan, desperately fanning the flames. It’s a rumor. On the other hand, I can’t use this trick on him."
"In Datang, there are a lot of poems and books that have not been enlightened. Instead, they are born with bad water and careful eyes." Hou Junji curled his mouth and smiled coldly, "Look at them. Come, those of us who are in the army are not worthy of death if they are not their parents. We are holding our heads and drinking stinky blood to fight with others. If the battle is won, it should be done. We must give them more than half of the score. If you lose, we are all in the culprit. Qin Mubai, Da Feichuan’s first battle, but the whole world is staring at it with wide eyes. Now it’s lost... Think about it, what should you do? Things', but you can't stop those bad mouths and careful eyes!"
"I know it in my heart." Qin Mubai said indifferently, "Since I'm here, I'm already prepared to face any changes, including victory or defeat. The court has to deal with it carefully, but I am Don't worry about it. Because I have confidence in His Majesty the Emperor. When he made this decision, he also made a lot of determination. With his personality, it is impossible to shake his beliefs because of temporary gains and losses. On the contrary... This Garqin Mausoleum has become more and more difficult for me to deal with. Strategies of war and strong soldiers are one thing. Just now when we retreated, he did not lead his army to cover and kill us, so I clearly realized that, He is not only a good commander, but also a strategic master who coordinates the military and the country. What he wants is to win or lose in battles from time to time. He has a long-sighted vision and a deep use of mind." /
"Now you understand why he was under one person and above 10,000 people in Tubo? Although his father made a big comment, but in fact, the pillar supporting the entire Tubo is this young Gar Qinling." Hou Junji said, "He is far better than you. He is far better than you. It's not that I have the ambition of others to destroy my prestige. We Datang, also can't find such a character." /
"I agree." Qin Mubai nodded softly, and said in secret: Wu Lue, he is definitely not as good as Yaoshi Li, Wen Tao, he is naturally not as good as Fang Xuanling... But speaking of comprehensive strength, this Karma Erqin Mausoleum is indeed too strong!
"Go up to the army, attack the shield with his spear, and make him chaotic. Garqin Mausoleum is wondering how to defeat the soldiers without fighting!" Hou Junji stood up , Staring at Qin Mubai, said in a heavy tone, "Qin Mubai, Garqin Mausoleum is better than you. You'd better put away your arrogance in the past and be careful. The war really begins now!"
