PS: There is a mistake in chapter 409, it should be Handan Wu, this is the case today, and there will be two changes tomorrow

Zhao Ying made a detour to the south of Taoyi near the outskirts of the city, and at first, Zhao Ying was very happy to see that Zhao Wuxian had sent scouts to the east and south and approached them vigilantly. Although whether it is the Wei army and the Qi army, it will be in the west and north when it appears, but it is good for the son to be cautious after all.

Seven thousand troops marched back and forth, and a little farther away, through the mist, Zhao Ying caught a glimpse of the high-walled gatehouse of Taoyi, and they had reached the end point.

Taoyi is also called Yao Xu, it is said that in ancient times, it was one of the former capitals of Yao surnamed Tang Yao. In the eighth year of Lu Xu, the princes of the Qi Huan Gongmeng were in Tao, and they were repeatedly the place of the alliance. In the thirty-first year of the reign of Lu Xu, Jin Wen divided Cao Di, south of Tao, and Fu Yuji in the east, as the price of attaching himself to Chu, this became the only remaining stronghold of Cao State on the north bank of Pushui, and he could borrow this place to join his own division in the case of the approaching Qi Wei army, which shows that Zhao Wuxian and Cao Bo had a great friendship.

It seems that he has learned to find allies, unlike in the Jin Kingdom, where he fights alone, and when he has achievements, he attracts jealousy, but he does not have many friends to help. The corners of Zhao Ying's mouth also showed a hint of self-deprecation, this point, he thought very highly of himself, and he learned it after countless falls when he was young.

Finally, when Zhao Wuxian came to dismount to greet him, Zhao Ying saw that he was surrounded by retainers and military officials, and many of them bowed their heads to Wuxian, and at the same time raised their eyes and looked at themselves with curiosity and admiration.

"My son also has a beard." Zhao Ying handed the axe and bow to Zheng Long, the right of the car, and got out of the car with a smile to help Zhao Wuxian up, he had many doubts and words to ask Zhao Wuxian, but the first sentence was like this.

"Yui."

Zhao Wuxian was stunned for a moment and then happily agreed, and then embarrassedly touched his chin that was covered with stubble because he was out on the march and had no time to take care of it. It seems that I suddenly feel unaccustomed. However, Zhao Ying's first meeting contained the concern of the father, but the strangeness that the two had not seen for a long time was instantly driven away.

"Good, it's a little similar to when my father was young, a little more majestic, and more like a champion."

The subordinates and military officials behind Zhao Wuxian came over one after another to salute Zhao Ying, and the military ministers were clearly armored. The scribe's eyes were shrewd. In the end, it was the pioneer post Wuzheng who detoured to this point, he held the tiger talisman of the division to reply to Zhao Ying, but Zhao Ying, but Zhao Ying, pushed the tiger talisman back to him again.

"The big war is coming, and Lone is still counting on Ziliang to continue to be my striker!"

……

Zhao Ying's majesty made the civil and military officers under Zhao Wuxian secretly admire, the tiger must have a tiger father, and the personality charm that is not angry and self-authoritative is even more unsympathetic.

There were also many familiar faces of Zhao Wuxian in the opposite team. Zheng Long, the black-clothed guard's priest, waited at Zhao Ying's side with a sword; The one in deep clothes and high crown is the strategist Fu Suo who brought it with him; The doctor had a childish face, and he smiled when he saw Zhao Wuxian.

The envoys of the State of Wu, who had made great contributions under the thorns, marched on the side, Qu Wuji and Wuxian were intimate, and the warrior crucian carp was frozen like a frosted eggplant. has lost his previous arrogant appearance, and he trembled a few times when he returned the salute with Wuxian, looking weak, and he was so funny that Wuxian was funny. Yan Yan, a gentleman of the Southern Kingdom, was pulling half a cart of scrolls behind him, which is said to have been hand-copied by him in the lower palace in the Tibetan room with a paper gifted without a shirt, in front of lamps and candles and heavy bamboo slips.

However, the nobleman who walked in the middle of the line and took the county guards of Wen County looked like a stranger in Zhao Wuxian's eyes...... Until the opponent rolls over and jumps off the chariot. Let out a familiar Hong Zhong shout, and then bow down in front of Zhao Wuxian to salute his brother. He had only just recognized who it was.

"My cousin is as heroic as he was back then!"

It would be nice if Zhao Wuxian could say the same thing to him, although Zhao Guangde, the shy little fat man two years ago, was a little bloated, his face was trimmed and his eyes were clear. But now I haven't seen him for two years, and I don't know what he's eaten at home, and the sixteen-year-old boy is blowing up like a balloon. He is nearly eight feet tall and stands out from the crowd. It was a good thing to be taller, but unfortunately his waist had become as striking as his height, he had at least twice as much weight, and a thick black beard that covered his fat double chin.

However, the ancient aesthetic was very appreciative of men's abdominal circumference. It is considered to be a symbol of strength, and you don't see the murals and sculptures of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and almost everyone who is a samurai has a big belly. It seems that Zhao Guangde's strength has indeed risen, and there is a large vertebra made of all copper on the chariot, which seems to be Zhao Guangde's weapon, and Zhao Wuxian can only barely carry it according to his own speculation.

During the small talk along the way, Zhao Wuxian learned that Dr. Wen Zhao Luo stayed in the rear to take charge of Wendi's defense, and although he was only forty years old, his body was so bloated that he could barely pedal to fight.

"Their father and son really deserve to eat a few less bear paws." Zhao Ying talked and laughed, and secretly complained to Zhao Wuxian by the way. Zhao Luo has become more and more greedy for pleasure in the past few years, as if he will never fight again in his life. Fortunately, although his son was also materialistic, he still had a little courage, thinking that Zhao Wuxian was good to him back then, and took the initiative to invite Ying to lead the army to accompany him.

The combat effectiveness of the county soldiers in Wenxian County is poor, but after invoking the training method of martial arts, the more than 1,000 soldiers directly under the command of Zhao Guangde are not so unbearable. In addition, Zheng Long took more than 200 black-clothed armor soldiers carefully selected from the sons of his retainers, guarded Zhao Ying's left and right, and 300 light knights who were trained on horseback in Dayuan, these people were considered the standing army of the Zhao family. The remaining 5,000 people were temporarily recruited by the Zhao clan from Xiagong, Jinyang and other places, and were equipped with spears, bows and arrows, and halberds.

Wuxian even saw that there were hundreds of soldiers who were sent to defend Chuqiu Rongzhou to accompany them, and they had a long-standing grudge with the defenders, and many of them joined the army under recruitment.

This is all the combat power in Zhao Ying's hands, and the most surprising thing is naturally the three hundred light horses. While training combat is not as good as the original version of the Shirtless Men, it is also a good addition to the upcoming battle.

"With the addition of two hundred soldiers and light cavalry, and more than three hundred under the command of Post Wuzheng, I will be able to gather eight hundred cavalry in this battle!"

If used properly, it is not a myth that a thousand horsemen can defeat more than 10,000 soldiers, but a fact that has been repeated repeatedly in history!

The military reforms carried out by their father and son were limited to the army, and were not forced to promote among the people and nobles like the Hufu cavalry of the later Zhao Wuling Wang, so although there were some objections, the light cavalry of the Yuan, Mu, and Di bloodlines gradually became commonplace. In the words of Zhao Ying: "Our ancestors and fathers are people who ride horses and herd horses, so what about fighting on horseback?" ”

He also used to ride horses in the garden when he was younger, at that time. The relationship between the Zhao family and the Fan family is quite close, and Zhao Ying himself also has some friendship with the Fan Jichu brothers.

Now things are people, again and again, Zhao and Fan, after this incident of crossing the river by the enemy, they have become inextricable mortal enemies! This account. After the Zhao father and son escaped, they naturally had to settle it with them.

The last thing Zhao Ying introduced to Wuxian was a strange old man with a flat bun and a patriotic accent.

"The first doctor of the country, Chu Shipu, was expelled for being evil to Wei Hou Yuan, and he died in Zhongmu, but when he heard that I crossed the river and entered the guard, he came to help."

Chu Shi was the official title of the Spring and Autumn Period, that is, the official responsible for managing the market, also known as the "city order", and the industry and commerce of the country were developed. Artisans and merchants were powerful. More than ten years ago, Wei Guo Qi Bao, Beigong Xi, Chu Shipu, and Gongzi Dynasty made a rebellion, and it was the use of the power of craftsmen that Wei Hou was expelled from Puyang, so Wang Sun Jia said that "Gou Wei Guo is in trouble, and industry and commerce are not in trouble."

However, the coup d'état ultimately failed, Gongzi Chao and Chu Shipu fled into Jin, and the beautiful man finally relied on Wei Hou's adultery to get forgiveness and went back. And Chu Shipu originally lived in the Zhao family's Zhongmu doctor, but now he is directly involved in the Zhao family.

After all, the "Juxian Residence" that attracts guests at the lower palace has developed after a year. Already famous, except for the young wanderers. One of the main targets of the solicitation is the deceased vassals of various countries. These people are dissatisfied with their homeland, and they have been in high positions for many years, and they have an extremely detailed understanding of the military and political realities of their country, and they can use them......

Qu Wu, the deceased minister of Chu who entered Jin, and Wu Zixu, who entered Wu, are all like this. The Battle of Yanling that year. The deceased minister of the Jin State, Emperor Miao Ben, was on the side of the King of Chu Gong, and the deceased vassal of the Chu State, Bozhou Plough, was on the side of the secretaries of the Jin State, and conducted a thorough analysis of the army of the mother country, which is a classic scene.

And the same is true of Chu Shipu, who is over sixty years old but still delusional about returning to the patriotic court. Even the old guy who ousted Wei Hou from power said it bluntly.

"Don't worry about the Chinese army Zuo and Xiao Sikou, although there are more than 20,000 people in the two armies, Wei Hou is suspicious by nature and will never make a desperate bet. When the old man was in Zhongmu, he knew that the Fan family and Handan would garrison troops in Dunqiu and other places east of the river. It is very close to Puyang, although Wei Hou was connived by his generation, but he still has a defensive heart, and he must leave the left army and half of the army commanded by Mi Zifang in Puyang, and then join the right army and half of the left army of Wang Sun Jia Shuai, a total of 15,000 people, waiting for the opportunity to join the Qi people. ”

"If only it could be like that." This news is like a shot in the arm, which makes Wuxian's eyes light up, if the number of guards participating in the battle is only one and a half troops, then his plan is more likely to come true!

……

As he spoke, he chose a good place to camp without shirts, and the ground under the horse's hooves was dry and would not sink with the trampling. They walked through smoke-filled campfires, rows of horses and carts, and wagons laden with grain and grain, most of which were brought directly from Taoyi.

Then, Zhao Ying saw Zhao Wuxian's soldiers lined up neatly, greeted by the following team led by the military officer, and shouted constantly when he saw his chariot coming.

was still admired: "Mighty and majestic, the array has no gaps, it is already a division of a hundred battles!" ”

Other armies, however, are less optimistic.

The military guards of the standing army have expanded to more than 1,000 people, and the soldiers of Xiaqiu, Zhen, and Yuncheng were basically drawn by Zhao Wuxian, and two thousand were transferred in one go, one thousand were taken by Ran Qiu to stay in Punan, and by the way, to monitor the still incomplete surrender of Onoze, and one thousand were used as combat troops. The second is the 1,000 people cobbled together by Xilu Provinces, and the doctors were frightened when they learned the news that the Qi people were going south, but fortunately Zhao Ying had arrived, and they were relieved, so they also sent people to show favor to make up the number.

In addition to the post no main division that arrived in advance, Wuxian had nearly 6,000 combat troops on hand.

The soldiers brought by Zhao Ying were successively led to the camp tent that had been built, and the destination of the group was the large tent of the Chinese army built with heavy cowhide and wooden poles on a high bare rock.

After blocking the left and right, only Zhao Ying and Zhao Wuxian were left in the account, and the father and son were silent for a moment.

There was a bag of corn wine and dried fish on the table, Zhao Wuxian poured a dime cup for Zhao Ying, he sat down on the couch, took a sip, and looked at his son carefully. He seemed to be a little taller than he had been before, and his swarthy beard did make him look a lot older.

"My son is fighting side by side with me." He thought to himself, this is his youngest son, and the most capable one, and if he changes the other three, it will not be enough to control the five thousand people.

This is a matter of course, from the beginning of leaving the Jin Kingdom, Zhao Wuxian single-handedly went into exile in various countries, seized Zhencheng, entered Lu as a doctor, and took advantage of the chaos in Lu to Dayi Yuncheng, and became a high-ranking small secretary. He seems to be using facts to prove that even if he is not in China, he can still surprise Zhao Ying from time to time.

For example, this time the rest of the month swept through the Weiguo Punan, and there were already five towns in the hands, although a stable and compliant rule was not established, but this was already something that even Zhao Ying himself did not dare to guarantee to do, and even better than the Jin Wengong back then.

But this achievement is like a barrier built on a sand dune, which can collapse at any moment under the blowing of the waves and winds.

And the storm is forming in the north.

So Zhao Ying slowly spoke: "Presumably you also know the situation, thanks to the Fan family and Handan Wu, in a few days, you and my father and son will have to face tens of thousands of Qi and Wei coalition forces." Although Wei Ren, as Chu Shipu said, will not all go south, but for my father, I will tell the truth, even so, although I have always prided myself on being good at fighting, I am not sure that I will win. ”

At the end, Zhao Ying added: "Will Uncle Cao really come?" Can Cao Jun really help us? ”

Zhao Wuxian listened carefully and replied respectfully: "I promise to cede Shengdou and the land south of Lishan and Leize after the matter is completed, as well as nearly 10,000 people. Zigong's skillful father had seen it, and it was precisely because of him that Cao Bo agreed to the matter. Nearly 10,000 people in Cao's army have gone north, and there is only one day's trip from here, and tomorrow they will be able to hunt in Tao with their father in winter! ”

"Although Uncle Cao agreed, after he came, would he regret facing such a big enemy?"

Wuxian said with a smile: "My son and his subordinate advisers have their own back-ups, and now they have been launched one by one, although we don't expect the tens of thousands of Qi and Wei to fall apart, but it is enough to make Qi Hou more troublesome, presumably in a few days, the enemy army we are facing will not be so powerful." I'm afraid my father doesn't know yet, but it just so happens that news came from the north yesterday that Bao Guo, the only secretary who stayed in Linzi, has passed away! (To be continued......)
