Chapter 62: Meeting (2)

This man who called himself Lu Jun was fearless in the face of a group of wolf-like soldiers, and his words were also very elegant. Ye Yunzheng rarely interacted with literati, and he was groaning for a while, not knowing how to deal with it. But the ordinary soldiers around him didn't think about it so much, they just felt that this person looked like a beggar, but he was holding a shelf when he opened his mouth, which was really a little ridiculous.

One of the horsemen pouted, "What is this guy talking about?" ”

"He said he was a pot...... Well, pot chicken wine, I want to see General Lu. ”

"What is pot chicken wine? Sounds like a dish......" Another strong black man wiped his mouth: "Could it be that he is a cook?" That's great, let him make us something to eat! ”

"Earth dog, you are such a earth dog! In addition to food, can you still be serious? The previous man scolded with disgust on his face, turned his head and said, "I said, you are an official, right?" Belch...... Responsible for the pot? ”

Of course, the kokuko festival wine is not in charge of the pot. This official position was fixed in the fourth year of Xianning in this dynasty, and he was the highest person in charge of Guozixue. Because Guozixue is dedicated to the children of high-ranking officials and nobles, and its status and role are special, the sacrificial wine is taken from people who perform pure, clear and righteous duties; If you are a regular attendant, a scholar, or a prince or above, you must be called to the test. Guozi's sacrificial wine is among the same as Weiwei, Taifu, and Shaofu, and it is really the first-class noble position of this dynasty.

Lu Jun reported his official name, not because of his own identity, but because the military situation was like fire, he couldn't afford to delay, and he also wanted to pay attention to it so that he could see his old man as soon as possible. I never thought that the group of soldiers in front of me were all vulgar and unliterate soldiers, talking nonsense, and there was no solemnity at all. His face sank, and he was about to answer, when someone laughed and interrupted: "General Lu can be seen by anyone casually?" Just rely on him, a pot official? ”

Since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, the status of the soldiers has been lower than that of the people of the household, and they are the most humble. If it was in the past, even if it was a petty official who saw sesame mung beans, he could only drive the soldiers, and treat them like servants. Even ordinary military schools can only kneel in front of the convoy where the officials travel. But in the chaotic times, how many high-ranking figures, after the end of the road, the rest is just a rotten life. These soldiers are all used to seeing each other, so they naturally develop a strong momentum. Ye Yunzheng was stunned for a moment, and his subordinates were already giggling and laughing.

Fortunately, Ye Yunzheng is more knowledgeable after all. When the soldiers were laughing, he thought: Although there is no way to verify the identity of this person in front of him, if what he said is true, he will be appointed to the court official position at a very young age, and he will come from the famous family of the ministers of the past generations, and he will not be humiliated. And what kind of important business he said he was talking about, God knows? If it is delayed in the hands of his own people, there are ten heads, which is not enough for military law.

"Shut up!"

The soldiers were immediately silent.

Ye Yunzheng turned to Lu Jun's head and signaled, "Can Your Excellency ride a horse?" ”

"Yes."

Ye Yunzheng casually pointed to the most noisy person just now: "You...... You get the horses out! ”

The horseman grimaced, and went to find someone else's companion. Lu Jun was also not polite, and moved his hands and feet slightly, so as to easily turn over and get on the horse. The horse, which had not yet been completely tamed, suddenly changed its owner, and could not help but be a little frightened, and Herod neighed, and his front hooves jumped up and spun several times. And Lu Jun pulled the reins with one hand, and his body seemed to be attached to the back of a horse, not moving at all.

The scholars of this dynasty are not good at martial arts but still enjoy the beauty of manners, and many civil officials are weak and only use ox carts to travel. In this year, Ye Yunzheng has seen with his own eyes many weak and uncontrollable children who are not immune from war, and he is a good question. Unexpectedly, this Lu Jun is skilled in horsemanship, and he doesn't seem to be under ordinary cavalry. The soldiers glanced at each other, and when they looked at Lu Jun again, their eyes were no longer as playful as before.

Half of the cavalry continued to patrol the original path, and the rest led Lu Jun back quickly. Because the battle on the front line of Wating was tight, Lu Yao took the lead in crossing the river and the elite of Youzhou went south to support, so the route of everyone's march drew a huge arc in the undulating wilderness, and rushed to Wating close to the control area of the Youji coalition army.

Interestingly, the big dog named Yellow-Eared also followed the group without saying a word, sometimes walking along the road with the cavalry, sometimes through the sparse woodland, with only the yellow figure flashing from time to time.

The distance between the tile pavilion and the white horse is not far, and the horse can be reached in half a day. But in this narrow area on the south bank of the Yellow River, tens of thousands of armies are confronting each other and attacking each other. Along the way, the group saw the fierce scout team of thieves in the Central Plains from afar several times, and once walked with dozens of defeated soldiers under the command of unknown people. Ye Yunzheng soon sent light horsemen out to investigate, in order to make a fool of himself, but because he had to stop from time to time and wait for the results of the investigation, the speed of his march slowed down after all.

It wasn't until the sun went down that everyone could see Qingyang Lake in the south. Qingyang Lake is formed by the siltation of the north branch of Puqu water, which is at the time of rising water in spring and summer, and the water surface reaches the border of Juancheng County and is connected with the Guzi River. Large expanses of water, shoals, and swamps are sparkling and sparkling. The lake is surrounded by meadows, shrublands, rolling hills, and a few dilapidated houses. When you arrive here, you can hear the war drums in the distance, thundering; The sound of military horses fighting desperately is faintly in the ears.

It turned out that Lu Yao's headquarters did not enter Wating, but stayed in an open area east of Wating, north of Qingyang Lake, and close to Weicheng, and formed a horn shape with Mai Zeming's troops stationed in Wating. It is said that since yesterday, they have fought several battles with the thieves who counterattacked, and they have been unable to hold each other.

The group moved forward for a while, and the military formation was still more than ten miles away, when a sentry team came to order them to stop, and only after the identity verification was completed was they allowed to continue advancing.

The crowd rode their horses and looked around. However, seeing that the heavy chariots were holding down the position, the strong crossbows and hard bows were holding the important places, and the flags painted with all kinds of hideous beasts such as bears, tigers, turtles, and snakes were waving at different assembly points, a group of soldiers immediately moved and arranged the formation in an orderly manner according to the instructions of the banners. The new force is gearing up, the fighting spirit is high, and the air is soaring; The light riding and heavy armor are endless, rolling like a dragon. Due to the repeated trampling of countless people, the grass where the army was stationed had turned out ochre-yellow soil, and the smoke and dust flying in the sky were rolled up as the men and horses passed, choking people to breathe.

Such a military might naturally has a breathtaking deterrent power, which makes everyone who sees it wonderful. Ye Yunzheng couldn't help but compare the scene he saw with the military appearance of the Jizhou army, and had to admit with some frustration: Youzhou soldiers and horses are strong and worthy of their reputation.

"Look, the high ground over there!" A shout called Ye Yunzheng's attention back.

He looked in the direction of the shouter's finger, and saw that the high ground was surrounded by hundreds of brightly armored cavalry, and at the top of the high ground, more than a dozen large figures of various colors and shapes rose together. The word "Lu" on the hunt proves that it is the hub of the entire huge military array, and the Pingbei general Lu Yao is there.

The distance from this high ground is still a little farther away, and everyone can only see the figure of a knight below the big man, and they can't see the appearance of General Pingbei himself. It was a westerly wind, and a faint voice drifted in the wind, as if the man was mobilizing before the war. With every word, the military formation in front of the high ground would let out a loud cheer in response.

Ye Yunzheng glanced at the soldiers around him, and found that they were almost all looking at the direction of the high ground in fascination, and his heart suddenly felt a little stupid. He coughed, and was about to say something, but saw the knight suddenly descend from the hillside and enter the dense ranks of troops.

There are many halberds in the military formation, as if covering the sky and the sun. In this way, everyone's view is blocked. However, the soldiers in the army suddenly burst into cheers that soared into the sky, and countless people enthusiastically responded with their weapons held high, and the tips of countless blades and spears reflected the light of the setting sun, like a rough sea, and the beating footsteps of the soldiers even made the ground shake!

When Lu Yao galloped back to the high ground and waved his hand to signal the military horse to go forward to fight, everyone, including Ye Yunzheng, believed that the Youzhou army would inevitably win, no matter who the opponent was.

This update is slow again, sorry sorry. Because I adjusted the story outline again...... There is really nothing to face everyone in terms of speed, and in terms of quality, I hope to do my best.
