Devil’s Advent

Beside him, the hooves of the cavalier's warhorse were scratching the ground, and wisps of white air were continuously sprayed out from the mouth and mouth of the horse.

Zheng Fan held the rein with his left hand, and the long knife in his right hand. His eyes were slightly closed, as if he was resting his mind.

No one knows what is going on in the surrounded environment on the southwest side, but everyone is waiting in full force, and maybe the next moment, they will have to urge their horses and the enemy to carry out the most brutal charge.

Finally, there was movement from the Jin army.

Zheng Fan opened his eyes, and was about to wave his saber to order a charge, but found that the Jin army in front actually started to retreat, and at the same time, the Jin army farther away also started to retreat.

while in front,

The Marquis of Jingnan rode a Paixiu and brought two flag-carrying knights slowly approaching, surrounded by tens of thousands of Jin troops, none of them dared to stop them!

After the distance between the two sides got closer, Zheng Fan did not dismount, but sat on the horseback and saluted:

"At the end of the day, I will see Lord Jingnan!"

The knights under his command also shouted:

"See Lord Jingnan!"

Jingnanhou nodded, and continued to push the pixiu under his crotch forward. Zheng Fan also immediately turned his horse's head. After the knights behind him voluntarily moved out of the way, he accompanied Jingnanhou into Wubao.

Immediately afterwards, the knights who lined up outside Wubao also followed and returned.

As for the Jin army camp outside, after the soldiers and horses returned, they immediately began a lot of work to dismantle and leave. The speed was very fast, and they only took away food, grass, military equipment, tents and other things that were convenient for transportation.

Zheng Fan accompanied Jingnanhou, and Jingnanhou dismounted from Pixiu, and Zheng Fan also dismounted.

"It's exhausted, get some human food for it, and if there's wine, get some wine."

Jingnanhou pointed to his mount and said.

"The general will follow orders, Lord Hou, please rest assured."

Pixiu is a strange beast, not to mention compared with a war horse, even an ordinary school captain is far from qualified compared to it, special treatment for special objects is justified.

Tian Wujing rubbed his wrist and said:

"Take me to see the Emperor Jin."

"Master Hou, this way please."

Fortunately, when Zheng Fan led Tian Wujing to the house, he didn't hear the previous "conquest" sound from outside.

When he entered, he found that Emperor Jin seemed to have received the news in advance and was already waiting.

This made Zheng Chengshou's heart tremble immediately, it seemed that the blind man and Liang Cheng had to seize the time to isolate and digest all the cavalry who had escorted Jinhuang in before going back.

Now that Emperor Jin has become a pure plaque, and the signature of this plaque is still the predecessor.

This bit of mosquito meat, these cavalrymen, they themselves accepted it.

Zheng Fan also believed that, except for a few loyalists, the rest would no longer be determined to follow an emperor who lost even the capital and no territory.

"Yu Ciming, the lord of the next country, see Lord Jingnan!"

Jin Huang knelt down to salute respectfully, keeping his posture very low.

The excitement brought about by the service not long ago seems to have completely dissipated at this time, and the two granddaughters of Wubao are not here now.

Tian Wujing did not help the kneeling Emperor Jin, but stood there calmly.

After a while, Tian Wujing said:

"You're useless."

Jinhuang's body softened immediately, he was kneeling before, but now he is a little paralyzed.

When Zheng Fan heard this sentence next to him, he could only lament Jingnanhou's "shrimp and pig's heart".

These words couldn't be more straightforward, but Zheng Fan felt that since the Jingnan Marquis had already come, he must have his own views on this riot.

After all, he was a veteran general in the army, and the method played by Emperor Jin must not be able to hide it from him.

"The Marquis will send someone to take you back to Yanjing, so just live here honestly, if you have any other thoughts, Bai Ling Poison Wine, choose one yourself."

This is equivalent to replacing Emperor Yan and making fate arrangements for Emperor Jin.

Yu Ciming shook his body slightly and remained silent. He didn't know if he was completely desperate or if he had already made mental preparations.

Without saying anything more, Tian Wujing turned and left the room.

Zheng Fan immediately followed and said:

"Master Hou, are you hungry?"

"Somewhat."

"Eat something?"

"good."

Zheng Fan didn't know what kind of relationship he had with Tian Wujing, but he said that Tian Wujing saved himself not once or twice.

Tian Wujing's reputation is very bad now. In the history books after Qianqiu, even if Dayan can really rule the world, it will be difficult for him to leave any good reputation.

But there is a good saying,

Even if thousands of people say that he is bad, he treats you well, but you cannot say that he is not good.

There are no noodles, and there is no time to fix that right now. The freshly baked steamed buns are white and tender, exuding heat.

One big bowl of egg flower soup for one person, with a little vinegar added, plus two dishes of side dishes that Si Niang had personally pickled when she was in Green Willow Castle.

"Master Hou, the one with the red dot is stuffed with shredded radish, the two with red bean paste, and the three with pickled vegetables."

Before the steamed buns are wrapped and put on the steamer, people will point them with a red pen to distinguish different types of steamed buns to suit personal taste.

After all, after steaming, it is not easy to find the fillings you like. Even if you don’t like the steamed buns, you can’t waste food, so you still have to bite the bullet and eat them.

Tian Wujing asked:

"There are no pure meat stuffed buns?"

Apparently, the Marquis of Jingnan was not used to the steamed buns in Cuiliu Fort.

"Pure meat stuffing, it's easy to get tired after eating." Zheng Fan explained in this way.

"hehe."

Tian Wujing smiled,

road:

"I've heard that your family used to open a restaurant to do business. It's considered a rich family, but I didn't expect your mouth to be so cunning, and you feel tired of pure meat stuffing. If Li Liangting hears this, you must Take a stick and break your leg."

"Master Hou laughed at me. In this life, we only have so much to do, and we just want to treat ourselves better in this 'eating'."

"Your words are not authentic. From the very beginning when I met you, this Marquis knew that you were ambitious. It's just that other people's ambitions are in your heart and you don't reveal them easily. Your ambition is written on your face."

Zheng Fan heard this, touched his face, and said with a smile:

"That's still not good enough for acting, I need to practice more in the future."

"It's not a bad thing for a man to be ambitious."

"Yes, Lord Hou, what you said is true."

Tian Wujing reached out and took a steamed bun stuffed with shredded radish, and took a bite. In the first bite, he could only eat white noodles, and in the second bite, the stuffing was ready.

The stuffing is added with salt, so eat it with white flour, just like eating steamed buns with white flour with vegetables.

"This steamed bun is indeed delicious."

"I still have quite a few at my place. After steaming in winter, these steamed buns are not easy to spoil, and can be stored for a long time. When cooking porridge in the morning, add a small drawer to the stove, heat up a few by the way, and then go down with the porridge. , and it’s also very comfortable; if you’re hungry at night, and you don’t want to bother, you can warm up a few to cushion your hunger.”

Tian Wujing nodded and continued eating the steamed buns.

Zheng Fan also dined with Jingnanhou.

After one person ate three steamed buns and went down,

The two stopped their hands tacitly, and wiped their hands on the wet towel next to them.

"You are quite quiet today."

"Master Hou was joking. He has owed Master Hou too many times. If he said any more words of thanks, it would seem unreasonable."

"You are from Yan, and you were once a part of this Marquis' command. If something happens to you, it is impossible for Ben Marquis to let you die."

"That's right, we will always be soldiers under Lord Hou. Those Jin people thought that we Yan people like them, and like to use these dirty tricks."

A smile appeared on the corner of Tian Wujing's mouth,

"Zhao Jiulang, it was indeed arranged in this way. This Marquis also received the document from the center and was informed of it."

"..." Zheng Fan.

This means that the Marquis of Jingnan is here to resist the decree?

After all, Zaifu followed the emperor's will most of the time, especially when communicating with a marshal of Jingnanhou's level, even Zhao Jiulang was not qualified to direct Jingnanhou what to do.

"Lord Hou..."

"It's not for you alone, even if it's other soldiers and horses, this Marquis will come to rescue. In the final analysis, since the founding of our country, Dayan, we have relied on nothing but the mutual support of Yan Dierlang.

Back then, because of your assassination, Ben Hou took you to the capital to abolish the third child, not purely to vent anger on Ben Hou, but Ben Hou was really angry.

Taiping has been around for a long time, and many people have forgotten their roots.

Dayan is not rich, and Dayan is not big, and the court can play the tricks of the court. In the past, the aristocratic family could play the tricks of the aristocratic family;

Traffickers and pawns, common people, all have their own ways;

But the soldiers and horses cannot be moved, nor can they be arbitrarily moved. The country is rich, the land is vast, the resources are rich, and the humanities are rich, but as long as the soldiers and horses can't do it, the country is doomed to be weak.

This is Ben Hou's belief, and it is also Ben Hou's bottom line. "

"Master Hou's teachings, the boy will definitely remember."

"The art of war written by your kid is also good."

"It's so hard to be elegant, it made Hou Ye laugh."

"A mere thousand words can't compare to the countless changes on the battlefield, but it can be regarded as the seed of a famous general."

"Master Hou is absurd."

"The current Situ family is just an empty shell, and most of his troops are stationed on the side of the Tianduan Mountain Range.

Although this Marquis did not bring any troops this time, the generals of the Jin army on the opposite side only thought that the Yan people did not want to reach that kind of tacit agreement with them, and they knew that the Situ family army was not in the west at this time, and they would lose if they fought at this time undoubtedly.

So, they withdrew. "

Zheng Fan was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning. At the same time, he suddenly understood the reason why Jingnan Hou came alone, but the Jin army was able to withdraw directly.

Therefore, my own Shengle City can be fought back!

"It is said that the savage settlements in the north of the Tianduan Mountains are a little restless these days, and they seem to have elected a new king. Do you know why I, Dayan, stopped the conquest of the Situ family at this time?"

Zheng Fan sat upright and replied:

"Lord Hou, the last general heard that when the Great Xia Dynasty was established, the Ji family, the ancestor of the Dayan royal family, was entrusted to the north to suppress the barbarians;

The Xiong family of the state of Chu was enfeoffed in the southeast to suppress Shanyue; the Yu family of the state of Jin was enfeoffed in the northeast to suppress the savages.

Compared with the barbarians, savages, and Shanyue, the four major powers are more like brothers fighting against each other against the wall to defend against their insults.

A hundred years ago, Emperor Taizong of the Qian Kingdom took advantage of my Dayan to make a decisive battle with the barbarians in the desert, and they were unjust.

Right now, the savages are showing signs of restlessness and revival. Although the Situ family is the vassal of the Yu family, they have been responsible for suppressing the savages for a hundred years. Now, since the Situ family is dealing with the savages, I, Dayan, are not big cadres after all. My Emperor Dayan His majesty's bearing is not comparable to that of officials in a dry country.

As long as the plight of the savages is uneven, as long as his Situ family is still fighting to the death with the savages, my Dayan iron cavalry will not make great achievements in the east.

This fully embodies the broad-mindedness and lofty outlook of His Majesty the Great Yan Emperor. The general admires him so much that he can't wait to shout my emperor's sage ten times every day before falling asleep and waking up. "

After hearing these words, the Marquis of Jingnan,

Just said very calmly:

"speak English."

Zheng Fan took a deep breath, gritted his teeth,

road:

"But Your Majesty's dragon body is in trouble?"
