Chapter 116 Red dye

Kisui-gun

In December, the weather is cold and the day is a little late.

Although the weather was clear, there was still a touch of white on the horizon at this time.

As time progressed, a few morning clouds drifted in the sky, and a faint glow rose from the east.

It's dawn.

The winter morning is cold, and most of the people in the city have not yet opened the door to get up at this time, only in the homes of some farmers, the rooster is leaning on his neck, oh, one after another.

There was a sound of horses' hooves, coming from far and near the streets of the county guard's house.

The county guard here sat in a carriage, and a few retinues rode to follow and take care of them, and the group was heading to the city gate.

When they arrived at the city gate, the county guard got out of the carriage and, under the care of his attendants, walked up to the castle tower.

An official was already waiting here, earlier than he had arrived, and when he saw the county guard coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute him.

"Don't be polite, but there's any news?" the county warden asked.

The official was busy: "My lord, I haven't seen the arrival of the army yet." ”

"Go up and wait. After thinking about it, braving the cold wind, the county guard still climbed the city wall.

The weather was cold, and when the sun had not risen in the early morning, people exhaled, and there were bursts of white gas.

The county guard of Jishui County was already standing on the city wall early, looking into the distance.

The object of his hope is the official way.

Last night there was news that early this morning, the king's army arrived here, he had not slept all night, and he was dispatching to vacate the camp where he was stationed, preparing a banquet, and preparing food and grass.

After a series of works, I slept for two hours, and then I woke up early and went to the city wall, looking into the distance.

As long as there is news from afar, you can go out to greet you as soon as possible, and there is a distance from the county guard to here, if the army arrives, it will inevitably slow down from the mansion.

Beside him, there were a few personal soldiers, as well as the official just now, at this time, all of them were silent.

They are all looking forward to the arrival of the army, and their eyes are looking at the target.

But it came quite quickly, the sun rose, and there was a faint smoke and dust rising on the official road, and the people in the city moved when they saw this.

"The army has arrived, let's go to greet it!" Taishou was shocked.

"No!" the people around them all bowed down and followed Tai Shou down.

Within a few days, under the rule of the king of Chu, they all moved.

In December, the water division gathered, the Jiaozhou army gathered, and Wang Hongyi's main force of 100,000 troops rose up and came towards Jishui County.

The army of the king of Chu, day and night, in a short period of time, quickly traveled through the land of Yigan County and arrived at Jishui County.

The various localities scouted the horses before sending the news back, and the army had already passed.

Early in the morning, at a distance from the county seat of Jishui County, a group of 5,000 cavalry marched quickly.

In front of the infantry team, a general took the lead, followed by several generals on the left and right.

This cavalry was all dressed in paper armor nailed with copper nails, which was stronger than ordinary paper armor, wearing leather helmets on their heads, and a flag with a diagonal tip on the back of the fire chief.

Without exception, these cavalrymen were all tall and skilled in horsemanship, and they were five thousand cavalrymen.

The general in front turned out to be Wang Hongyi, who personally led the generals to Jishui County.

Although Wang Hongyi is the king of Chu, he is a pioneer, and when it is critical, he can go into battle in armor.

"Your Majesty, fifty miles ahead, you will be the county seat of Jishui County. ”

Wang Hongyi spoke behind him.

Wang Hongyi looked ahead, nodded his head, and said, "Someone should have arrived there." ”

Rightly, there was a probe horse coming in front of him.

He turned over and dismounted in front of Wang Hongyi's horse, and fell to the ground: "Your Majesty, I found out the news, everything is normal in Jishui County, and the officials in the county are waiting outside the city." ”

At this time, someone reported from behind: "Wang, after receiving the news of the carrier pigeon, the Jiaozhou army has arrived in Yishan County." ”

"Haha, it's all very fast, get up!" Wang Hongyi slowly let the horse run a few steps under the gaze of several generals, his eyes became refreshed, and he looked at the sunlight shining in the east.

His speed came very fast, and they were all cavalry, and the Jiaozhou army also rushed to Yishan County, calculating the distance, which made Wang Hongyi very appreciative of their marching speed.

One after another, scouts came to report to him on the march of other armies, and they were not slow.

Presumably, in less than two days, they will be able to meet here.

"Pass the order, speed up the horse, and rest again when you arrive at Jishui County!" At the sound of the order, the cavalry accelerated its march.

In fact, for dozens of miles, the cavalry marched, but it was not far.

At dawn, Wang Hongyi took people to Jishui County.

Knowing that not only the forbidden army had arrived, but even the king of Chu had arrived, the county guard of Jishui County hurriedly opened the city gate, and it was too late to sweep the floor and put incense on the case, but he came out with a group of civil and military personnel.

There was also a county magistrate Cao Mingshan who came with him.

Cao Mingshan was born in the Secret Pavilion in the past, but he didn't stay too long, and he was sent out to be a county lieutenant when he was promoted to the eighth grade, and because of the expansion of his territory, he was lucky to take on the county order, and now he belongs to a county under Jishui County.

However, at that time, even in the Secret Literature Pavilion, he had only seen the King of Chu from afar, and he had only met a few times at close range.

At this time, the sun was bright, the four fields were clear, and I saw the forbidden army array galloping in the distance, walking with the flag layer by layer, and the color of their paper armor was red, which looked like a piece of fire.

The sound of horses' hooves was faintly like thunder, converging into thunder.

In front of the county seat, the entire cavalry shouted a tsunami: "Chitose!"

Then, the cavalry was divided into rows, and hundreds of horsemen supported one person, and slowly came.

At this time, a group of civil and military personnel had already knelt on both sides, and when they saw a person in the middle approaching, they coincided, and the mountains shouted and the tsunami shouted: "Chitose!"

After Cao Mingshan knelt down, he looked at the person wearing golden armor in the middle.

When I saw the King of Chu this time, I found that Wang Hongyi's majesty was even worse than before, and there was an awe-inspiring meaning between his gestures.

"Minister Cao Mingshan has seen the king!" After the county guard worshiped Wang Hongyi, Cao Mingshan stepped forward to bow to Wang Hongyi.

"Yes...... Cao Mingdan?" Wang Hongyi looked at the person who bowed down in front of him, thought about it, and asked.

This person Wang Hongyi has some impressions, Cao Mingshan once killed people in a rage when he was a teenager, and Wang Hongyi obtained a secret report.

Cao Mingshan saw that the king of Chu was very gentle with his words, and his heart was hot, and his words became more and more respectful.

asked a few words about the situation in the county, and seeing that Cao Mingdan's answer was reasonable, Wang Hongyi secretly bowed his head, this person is simply very good in this regard, and he has real talent and learning, but this pomp and circumstance should not be much, just a few words just now, all of them made the people around him dark and discolored, and even in the eyes of the spirit, you can see a trace of luck condensed in him.

At Wang Hongyi's point, every word and deed is related to luck.

After meeting these people, Wang Hongyi took his generals into the county seat.

At dusk, several more armies arrived.

These large armies will march into Wu and make a situation of intimidation and delay against Wu.

There was no word that night, and early the next morning, another army arrived at the place, and the camps outside were stretched out.

Wang Hongyi took a group of personal soldiers and climbed a mountain outside the city in the early morning.

This hill stands on the plain outside the city, and the county town is clearly visible in the distance, and when you look from the top of the mountain, you can see the vast fields stretching to the end of the earth.

Roads stretch out of the city like belts.

Wang Hongyi stood still, the cold wind came, blowing his robe very high, Wang Hongyi squinted, his eyes flashed faintly, and he looked at it.

Although he couldn't see the situation of Wu Land from here, his luck was unobstructed, and he could also see it clearly when he looked towards the territory under his rule.

I saw that on my own territory, the red air currents moved slowly on the earth, dyeing the rivers and mountains red, and the mountains near and far on the earth were not in the red sea of air, like islands in the sea.

In the sea of red qi, countless threads were faintly seen, this was the Fa rooted in it, and then I looked at it, only to see a thick and large dragon pillar soaring into the sky, tumbling upward.

Looking at Wu Di again, I saw that the sea of qi had thinned, the dragon pillar was much lower, and there was even more of my own silky method, which penetrated deep into the enemy's territory and infiltrated the past, confusing the enemy's luck......

Whoever encounters this scene is in a happy mood.

Wang Hongyi knew that the rise of the Great Khan in the northern grasslands was no longer unstoppable, and the black dragon was eyeing him, although Guo Wentong was able to block it, it might not be expected for a while.

There are also princes from all walks of life in the north, who are multitude and self-reliant, devouring each other, and a few dragons are angry.

Even if Wang Hongyi has seized the opportunity, he is still vigilant and urgent, otherwise he will not attack Wuyue again soon after he has just pacified Jiaozhou, but the time is really urgent, and he can't wait!

In this case, standing on the top of the mountain, climbing high and looking into the distance, seeing this scene, my heart rejoices.

Thinking of the failure in his previous life, the chaos of the Central Plains, and the destruction of his own body and family, this kind of misery is like a dream of Huang Liang, and all kinds of memories flash in his mind in an instant.

In this life, he changed his life by chance, all kinds of coincidences, and with courageous efforts, he had the creation in front of him! It really made him have mixed feelings for a while.

He opened his mouth gently, facing Wu Yuebiao's purpose, and couldn't help but read out a poem casually: "Wangjialou sailed out of Jingzhou, and the king of Jinling was gloomy." Ten thousand iron locks sank to the bottom of the river, and a piece of stone was lowered. ”

This is not the work of the poet who is entertaining, but it is this situation that shakes his heartstrings.

The entourage around him, some of whom had the tips of their ears, heard Wang Hongyi's poem, and their minds were flexible and they wrote it down.

After Wang Hongyi finished reading this poem, he was even more emotional, looking into the distance, feeling that Jieli was in sight, this is the way to cut down the Tao, the so-called Tao is luck, it is the law, and it is the human heart!

However, when he saw the purpose of the Northern Grassland Mark, he frowned slightly.

In this battle, he must win, not only to win, but also to end as soon as possible.

Time waits for no one, take Wu Yue, just the situation is stable, it will take time, Wang Hongyi hopes to try to build momentum for himself before the grassland black dragon marches into the Central Plains.

The first opportunity is very mysterious, just like a snowball, taking the lead on this side, in terms of luck, there will be more first, and in the future, the enemy will hang his head for a while, and there may not be a day to raise his head.

Wang Hongyi is going to take this opportunity to wait for the black dragon.

After descending the mountain, Wang Hongyi returned to the city.
