Chapter 29: On the banks of the Han River
The Han River is babbling, and at night, I don't know what kind of beast it is, whining on the riverside.
By the campfire, the black-toothed Changzhi who had just come out of the marching tent squinted his eyes and saw a familiar figure standing by the river.
That figure, he has been extremely familiar with in the past few months.
It was the chief general of the Tang Army this time, Su Dawei, who had just been named the acting governor of the Baekje Xiongjin Metropolitan Mansion by the Tang Emperor.
He won't admit it.
During the day, the military horses finally found a boat to cross the river, and after crossing the river, it was completely dark.
After everyone discussed, they simply set up camp by the river, let the soldiers rest fully, and wait until the second half of the night to move.
Therefore, this is the first time that it has been so quiet since leaving Sixian City for three days.
Listening to the whine of the river and the sound of the sergeant sleeping soundly in the military tent, Hei Yan Chang was a little dazed for a while, forgetting where he was.
Whether he is a general of Baekje or a general of the Tang people.
Zhuang Gong dreams of butterflies?
He shook his head in confusion.
From the side of the campfire, a gentle and deep male voice came: "Ami has been standing there for most of the night. ”
Hei Tooth Changzhi turned his face sideways, and only then did he notice that in the shadows that could not be illuminated by the bonfire, there was a white fat man sitting cross-legged.
When did this person come, or did he sit here all the time?
Blacktooth is often a battlefield general, and he has always had a keen sense of smelling for crises, but before the other party spoke, he didn't notice any signs at all.
This made him re-examine the fat white man in front of him.
Yes, his name is Anwensheng.
seems to be Su Dawei's right-hand man, who is usually relatively low-key, and he can't see anything.
But he's an alien.
It's very powerful.
In addition, this person has poetry and books in his belly, and his knowledge is quite extraordinary.
It seems to be the existence of a think tank around Su Dawei.
Heizhi Changzhi had seen An Wensheng give advice to Su Dawei.
But he didn't understand the relationship between the two of them.
Obviously, Su Dawei's official position is high, but An Wensheng doesn't seem to have too many taboos in front of Su Dawei, and he usually talks and laughs unscrupulously, just like ordinary friends.
In addition to An Wensheng, Su Dawei also has Ashina Daozhen, the Turkic general, and a lion named Su Qingjie, which is the same.
Probably, because of their noble birth?
An Jia seems to be the general of the Tang Dynasty.
Ashina Daozhen Aye is Ashina Sheer, a famous Turkic general who naturalized the Tang Dynasty.
As for Su Qingjie, it is even more powerful, his father is Su Dingfang of the Tang Dynasty.
The famous god of the army that destroyed the country.
In addition to these generals, Su Dawei also has some powerful people around him, such as Lou Shide, Wang Xiaojie, Cui Qi, Nan Jiulang and others.
However, their attitude towards Su Dawei is as respectful as their subordinates to Shangguan, not as casual as An Wensheng and the others.
These thoughts flashed through the mind of the black-toothed Changzhi.
He is a calm man and does not speak much.
Although my heart is like a mirror, I don't easily confide in my thoughts.
While thinking about it, I saw An Wensheng stretch out his hand and beckoned: "Come and talk a few words." ”
Hei Tooth Changzhi hesitated slightly, but still walked over and sat down beside An Wensheng.
The warmth released by the campfire roasted the palms of the two of them hot, dispelling the chill of the night.
An Wensheng stretched out his palms, while roasting the fire, he said to the black tooth Chang: "Ami, although he usually treats people very casually, but in fact, his heart is very rigid. ”
"Huh?"
"It is difficult for ordinary people to enter his eyes, but sometimes he will inexplicably have a good impression of a person and be a brother."
Hei Tooth Changzhi looked at him and didn't speak.
An Wensheng didn't seem to need him to speak, and said to himself: "I don't know why Ami treats you differently, but I believe that his vision has almost never been missed over the years." ”
As he spoke, An Wensheng pointed to the sentry in the corner in the dark: "Do you see the people over there?" Wang Xiaojie, he was discovered by Ami from the army, and he is indeed a talented man and a brave man. ”
Tsuneyuki Kurofi nodded.
"Since Ami trusts you, I believe in you too."
As he spoke, An Wensheng turned his face, and in his long narrow eyes, he stared at the black-toothed Changzhi with a shining look: "The next enemy will be very strong, I hope you and I will work together to assist him and get through the current difficulties." ”
Hearing An Wensheng's words, Hei Yanchang's heart moved: "Is there any difficulty for the governor at the moment?" ”
An Wensheng looked at him: "You should know about the former governor Wang Wendu." ”
Hei Tooth Changzhi nodded: "I heard that he died violently as soon as he took office." ”
"The position of governor involves too many interests, and whoever sits in that position will be greeted by open guns and arrows from all directions.
Externally, there were Goguryeo people, Silla people, Baekje people who restored the country, and Japanese people, and all kinds of threats were plotted.
Internally, the problem of lack of food and soldiers, the balance of the internal Baekje Guishun forces, and the balance of the Tang Army and the local forces.
This position is not glory, but stepping on the edge of a cliff. ”
An Wensheng's face was immersed in darkness, and the words he said made people feel cold in their hearts.
"Ami was suddenly put in this position, that is, stepping on the blade and dancing, and if he is not careful, he will be doomed."
An Wensheng's voice became deeper and deeper.
But the content of the words is still cold to the bone.
The Black Tooth is often sensitive to the military, but political power is not his forte.
Hearing this, I only felt that the hairs on my back stood upside down.
"Is it really that dangerous?"
"Wang Wendu's violent death is proof of this."
An Wensheng turned his head to Su Dawei and said, "Ami never told us, but we know how much pressure he is under and how much risk he takes. ”
"Then why not resign as acting governor? It is to be the lieutenant of Zhichong Mansion, or with his merits, he can be promoted to another level, and he can be a general. Black Tooth Changzhi couldn't help but say.
He and Su Dawei are now both prosperous and loss-making.
It belongs to the relationship of "benefactor and servant".
If Su Dawei is not there, his future can be imagined.
"I also persuaded him to do so, but Ami thought about it again and again and decided to take it." An Wensheng sighed faintly: "He said, it is both danger and opportunity, and he also said that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility." ”
An Wensheng turned to the black-toothed Changzhi, and a rare wry smile appeared on his face: "Although they are brothers, I sometimes can't figure out what Ami is thinking. ”
Blacktooth is often silent.
The bonfire flickered, illuminating people's faces.
"It doesn't have to be like this......"
"Why do you think Ami is in a hurry to bring people out?"
"Is it ......?"
"Forget about the enemy from the outside, the most feared thing is that the enemy is not outside, but inside."
When An Wensheng said this, he seemed to feel that he had talked a little too much.
Shaking his head, he stopped.
But the heart of the black tooth is already a monstrous wave.
At this moment, he thought of a lot.
Su Dawei is the successor of Su Dingfang's art of war, and looking at his close relationship with Su Qingjie, he naturally belongs to Su Dingfang's party.
But now there are two other generals in Baekje Sihyeon.
Liu Boying certainly does not belong to this faction.
Su Dingfang was born in the army, and he has no outstanding family background, and he relied on one battle after another.
They belong to the emerging "cold door" of Datang.
Liu Boying and Liu Renyuan have other roots.
Su Dawei was suddenly promoted to the acting governor, but he was afraid that he would be jealous.
It's too young, it's too young.
With Su Dawei here, the light of others is destined to be obscured.
No, no, this time, Su Dawei asked Liu Boying to transfer a few more big ships, if it is that kind of relationship, it should be ......
Could it be that Liu Ren is willing to suppress it?
But why is Liu Ren willing to do this?
By the way, they all said that Su Dawei was in the emperor's heart.
Now that I think about it, the position of the governor of the capital is simply sitting on the edge of the knife and sitting on the firestand.
If Su Dawei is really the person of the Tang Emperor, after the death of a Wang Wendu, how can the emperor let himself let others sit in this position?
There are so many things that the black tooth often can't figure out.
But he understood at least one thing.
That is, the composition of the Tang army in Sixian City was more complicated than he imagined.
It involves the internal struggle of various forces.
It's not as amiable as it seems.
For the first time, Tsuneyuki had a sense of danger and uncertainty about the future.
His mind was at a loss for a moment.
An Wensheng said: "You have to believe in Ami, no matter how difficult it is, he will definitely be able to fight his way."
We just need to do our best to help. ”
Blacktooth Changzhi staggered to his feet and nodded to An Wensheng.
He looked at Su Dawei's back and couldn't help but walk over.
An Wensheng by the campfire shook his head, wondering if he would be talking too seriously and scare the Baekje general?
However, the pressures and storms ahead will only be greater.
If he can't even stand this pressure, then this person doesn't stay.
Seeing the black tooth Changzhi walking towards Su Dawei, the two finally stood shoulder to shoulder, facing the Han River together.
An Wensheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he fell into memory.
The river is rippling.
The moonlight shines through the cracks in the clouds, and the silver scales flicker on the surface of the river.
Hei Tooth Changzhi stood beside Su Dawei and couldn't help but turn his head to look at him.
Su Dawei is very tall.
The black tooth is often more than one meter tall, and he can only look up in front of him.
Looking into his eyes, I found that his eyes were fixed on the surface of the Han River, as if they were not focused.
I looked down and saw Su Dawei holding a wood carved puppet in his hand.
It shouldn't be a master's handiwork, because the carving skills are ordinary.
But the puppet has a sense of power.
One knife after another, a strong ancient servant, and strong strength.
It was a man dressed in a Tang costume, holding a horizontal knife in both hands to make a downward chopping shape.
The muscles of the arms are knotted, and the eyes are powerful, giving people a sense of wildness and concentration.
It's like you're about to pounce and slash your enemies at any moment.
"This puppet was carved by my brother and given to me by himself."
Su Dawei suddenly spoke, letting Hei Tooth Changzhi know that he was not distracted.
"Your brother?"
Heizhi Changzhi remembers hearing that Su Dawei's father was Su Sanlang, who once accompanied Master Xuanzang to Tianzhu, and later died in a foreign land.
Su Saburo has only one son.
"It's not my own brother, but he treats me very well, leading me into the door of alien cultivation, and he can be regarded as my benefactor who spreads his art and solves doubts."
Su Dawei turned his head to the black tooth Changzhi: "His name is Li Dayong." ”
The heart of the black tooth sank.
Of course he knew Li Dayong.
That Daetang official who operated between Baekje and Silla.
On the surface, he is the envoy of the Tang people, and secretly, he maintains the balance between the subject countries for the Tang Dynasty and collects information on the peninsula.
Later, Baekje made great efforts to get rid of this person.
And this person's bravery also made the husband Yutai led by Daochen lose face.
Eventually, they killed Li Dayong.
And in a very cool way......
