Jinghong Building

Chapter 360 I'm waiting for you in Tongcheng

At this time, He Xiulong was less than ten miles away from Yangzhou City.

Duke Ding's heart sinks again, but this time, he is for himself.

Based on his experience, it should be predicted that He Xiulong will definitely launch a counterattack in a short period of time, and he should have been on guard against it.

However, he did not.

This kind of error shouldn't have happened!

Something went wrong with his condition!

He was still affected.

Is it that **** ear, or Zhou Cangyue’s shameless article?

Maybe there are, or maybe there are more.

Anyway, he made a mistake when he was the most inaccurate one.

Duke Ding Guo knew very well what the consequences would be for such a mistake as a head coach.

A million corpses are buried, and blood flows thousands of miles away!

Duke Ding Guo’s heart beat like a drum, his fingers trembled slightly, and he still had time.

Duke Ding suddenly stood up, but the next moment, his eyes were dizzy and he hurriedly supported him so that he would not fall.

By the time Duke Dingguo rode his horse out of the city, the people of Yangzhou City already knew about the news that He Xiulong had called.

There is no need to call at all. Pedestrians on the street ran home one after another, and the shops were closed. The people who returned home had closed the door and were counting the rice bags at home. I don’t know how many days it will take to fight this battle. Is there enough rice and grain at home? .

Although Yangzhou City has not yet experienced the war, the people of Yangzhou City are already very experienced.

Don’t ask where this experience comes from, it’s a comic strip!

Some people who plan ahead have prepared grain, oil, rice, flour, dried vegetables and bacon early on.

Mrs. Zhang took out two pieces of fabric that had been prepared long ago, and took advantage of the past few days that she didn't have to go out to work to sew two new clothes for the two children at home. This year she has grown taller and she can't wear the clothes she had last year.

A Zhang hugged his wife's waist from behind: "Why don't you take advantage of these days, let's add a little bit of a hair."

Mrs. Zhang spat and said angrily, "I'm not serious, and I'm not afraid of letting the children see it."

This battle ended until the end of the west mountain. Both sides called out gold and retreated. Duke Ding returned to the city. When he dismounted, his right leg could not be lifted. Several personal soldiers helped him and moved them, so that he could not land safely.

The military doctor has treated me and I have not had any serious illnesses, but I am too tired.

I only used one bowl of rice porridge when I ate late, so Duke Ding could not eat it. These days, I had no appetite no matter what I ate.

The personal soldiers served him to go to bed early. Although his body was already very tired, he still couldn't fall asleep. As long as he closed his eyes, the scene of Jing Laosan being affected constantly appeared in his mind.

In desperation, he had to open his eyes, look at the roof in the dark, and whisper silently: "Hui'er, don't worry, I will definitely take San'er back, sure!"

In the darkness, there seemed to be a pair of eyes looking at him tenderly.

I don’t know how long it took, but Duke Ding gradually lost consciousness. In his dream, he was a sea of ​​corpses and blood. A woman as weak as dodder flower cried and pulled his sleeve to ask for a child.

Duke Dingguo was ashamed of his heart as a knife, and suddenly woke up. It was pitch black in front of him, and it was not yet dawn.

He sighed and was about to continue to sleep, but the voice of his personal soldiers came from outside the door: "Dude, Ran Jun is calling!"

Duke Dingguo cursed, why did the guys like Ranjun start jumping so early?

He was about to sit up when another personal soldier panted and heard: "Dude, Ran's army has begun to attack the city!"

Duke Ding felt his head was heavy and dizzy. He forced himself to get out of bed and started to attack the city before dawn. Does He Xiulong need to sleep?

Yes, He Xiulong is so old, in his early twenties. Thinking back then, he was the same when he was in his early twenties, as if he had endless energy.

The next battle, from before dawn to dusk, was killed and injured in both armies.

The difference is that when He Xiulong returned to the tent, he had a meeting, and had a meeting with the tactical team and his generals while having a meal. After the meeting, everyone went back and fell asleep. After a while, they snored loudly.

But Duke Ding was another night when he was about to sleep.

The next day, before dawn, Ran's army came to attack the city again, and Duke Ding could only force his body to fight again.

In the evening, the Jin Dynasty withdrew its troops. Before Duke Ding took off his armor, he received a letter from Zhou Cangyue, which was placed at the entrance of the government office.

There are only a few words in the letter: I'll be waiting for you in Tongcheng.

There is also a finger in the envelope.

That's the thumb, right hand.

Duke Ding recognized the finger at a glance, and there was a scalding scar on the joint, which was left only a few years ago.

This finger is from Jing Laosan.

Big thumb on the right hand.

Duke Ding's eyes turned black. San'er was a scholar. Without his thumb, how could he hold the pen?

After receiving a **** ear last time, Duke Ding vomited blood for the second time.

When he vomited blood last time, he was worried that it would affect his morale and did not call him a doctor. Recently, his health problems have been happening repeatedly. The military doctor has been following him. Seeing that he vomited blood, he hurriedly took his pulse and finished the pulse. The military doctor sighed in his heart. Dingguo When Duke asked, he only said that he was anxious and did not dare to tell Duke Ding that this time the pulse was as if the oil was dry and dry.

It shouldn't be, Duke Ding is only in his forties.

Of course, there are quite a few who died in their forties and fifties in this era, but the people in the Duke Ding Mansion are famous for their longevity, and Duke Ding's grandmother, Old Lady Meng, is still alive.

The military doctor did not dare to tell the truth, but Duke Ding's body could not be concealed.

The next day, as before, the Ran army began to attack the city before dawn. However, this time, Duke Ding did not lead the troops himself and he fell ill.

For three consecutive days, Duke Ding did not appear in the central army tent. He Xiulong picked up the cliff and looked at it for a while, feeling a little regretful. Not to mention, she had a relationship with Duke Ding in war. She was so excited when she saw Duke Ding. She wanted to swing her sword, but now that Duke Dingguo is not here, she feels too satisfied with the war.

Undoubtedly, Duke Ding is a very strong opponent.

The last time He Xiulong encountered such an opponent, Fu Yansheng.

Such an opponent is hard to come by. He either surrenders or beats him to the underworld.

Thinking of this, He Xiulong became excited again. The battle lasted for ten days. On the tenth day, she had just returned to the tent after she withdrew the troops and heard an astonishing news.

The imperial army withdrew from the seven counties of Anqing. The magistrates of these seven counties took their families away overnight. It is said that they brought a lot of money when they left.

He Xiulong was knowledgeable and was shocked when he heard the news.

It is not uncommon for the magistrate to abandon the city and flee, and it was not uncommon in Jin back then.

But the garrison evacuated, which is interesting.

Military orders are like mountains. Unless you want to rebel, there will be no military orders, and no garrisons from anywhere dare to evacuate easily.

Now, only Ding Guo Duke can order the withdrawal of troops, looking at the entire court.

Therefore, this military order to withdraw troops was issued by the Duke of Dingguo!

Although he was fighting, He Xiulong also heard that Zhou Cangyue wanted the six counties of Anqing. She didn't think deeply at that time. However, when she heard about this, her first reaction was different from that of the people in the world. I wonder if Zhou Cangyue has drunk too much?

After that, He Xiulong did not pay attention to this matter after many consecutive days of siege. Today, he suddenly heard that although the court army withdrew from the six counties of Anqing, He Xiulong suddenly realized that Zhou Cangyue did not drink too much, he just pinched the fatal hole of Duke Ding. , fearless. Duke Ding also wanted face. He just withdrew the military and political affairs of the six counties in Anqing and turned the six counties in Anqing into three ignorance.

When he received this good news, Zhou Cangyue was fighting with Wang Hao.

At this time, Wang Hao was beaten by Nong Liuniang and only two cities and sixteen counties remained!

Zhou Cangyue likes to beat the dog when he falls into the water the most. He heard that Wang Hao is miserable now, so he rushed to the west and started fighting with Wang Hao.

Therefore, when he learned that the six counties of Anqing that he had been thinking about had become three-in-one, he almost cried.

He wanted to take over immediately, but unfortunately, he was too busy and had no time.

He wanted to borrow flowers to offer Buddha and give to Sister Ran the six counties of Anqing to Sister Ran, but when he inquired, Lu Zhen's little face was in Fengyang Mansion, and Sister Ran would most likely let Lu Zhen take over her.

Thinking of this, Zhou Cangyue was unhappy. No, he would give these six counties to Sister Ran with his own hands, so that it would not be pleasant to let others take care of them.

Zhou Cangyue waved his hand and threw Wang Hao to Qi Yan. He traveled day and night to reach Tongcheng.

However, Zhou Cangyue is a good child. He took advantage of his busy schedule and did not forget to bring Jing Laosan with him.

These days, Jing Laosan has been living in the stable. When Zhou Cangyue saw him, he almost couldn't recognize him.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Zhou Cangyue arrived in Tongcheng, and then someone threw Jing Laosan outside Yangzhou City.

There was a war outside Yangzhou City. The Beggars' Gang found a safer place and threw Jing Laosan there and left.

But they did not go far, but put a letter outside the Yangzhou government office, telling Duke Ding that Jing Laosan was somewhere outside the city and asked them to pick up the people themselves.

After seeing the letter, Duke Ding from his sickbed immediately sent his confidants to pick them up. At this time, Mingjin withdrew his troops, and both armies were cleaning up the battlefield. The dead bodies were pulling back in a car, and the prisoners tied them up with ropes to form a long list.

The confidant did not find Jing Laosan. He was worried that he would be captured by Ranjun as a prisoner, so he took off his military uniform and pretended to be a civilian hired by Ranjun to work, searching in the captive team that could not be seen at first sight.

The prisoners included soldiers and civilians requisitioned by the army.

The soldiers were all wearing military uniforms, while the civilians were wearing casual clothes.

When the confidant thought that Jing Laosan was sent by Zhou Cangyue's people, he must have been wearing casual clothes, so he went to the civil servants to look for it.

Whether it is prisoners or civilians, they are in good spirits.

These days, unless the superior is mentally abnormal, no one will kill prisoners, and the prisoners will be directly organized into the army. Today is the court army, tomorrow is the Ran army, and the day after tomorrow may become the court army. As long as they are not dead or disabled, they can eat forever. Military rations.

The civilians were even less worried, they were recruited to work.

So now the prisoners are waiting for the establishment, and the civilians are discussing whether to take care of food at night. They bring their own food to the court army. During the war, the bags of food are gone. If the Ran army does not take care of food, they will go hungry. This matter must be said carefully.

The confidant's mouth twitched when he heard it. He had been following the Duke, and today he had gained some knowledge.

His eyes searched among the crowd of gangs, who either sat or stood, and only one was lying.

The confidant frowned and asked, "Is that person dead?"

A civilian looked at it and said, "It's probably hungry."

The confidant walked over and smelled a scent of horse manure before he got close. He suppressed the disgust and looked at the man's face. Seeing that the man's face was mostly covered by his hair, he reached out to try to put the man's hair. I brushed away, but as soon as my hand reached over, I saw the man's hair with white seeds (little eggs).

The confidant quickly shrank his hands back and looked at the man's half face, his beard was stubborn, ah, there were even seeds on his beard!

This was the first time that a close friend saw someone with lice on his beard. He felt itchy everywhere on his body and hurriedly took a few steps back.

No need to watch it, this is definitely not the third young master in Yushu.

The third young master loves cleanliness the most. He only wears clothes once and does not wear them after washing them.

With the smell of horse manure in this body, it is even more impossible for the third young master to be the one.

People outside don't know, but he, as a confidant of Duke Ding, knew that the third prince fell off his horse when he was a child, and then there was a shadow. Even the Duke's mount could not appear ten feet away. Within.

Looking at the one in front of me, it was like I picked it up from a pile of horse manure. How could it be the third young master?

The confidant did not find Jing Laosan among these civil servants, so he had to go to the civil servants hired by Ran's army again. The civil servants were also making noise. They heard that they captured a group of civil servants from the court army today. Should these guys be I will have to work for them, that won’t work!

So they yelled to say something.

The confidants looked at these people's faces one by one and confirmed that there was no Jing Laosan.

Yes, how could the third young master, who is as noble as the bright moon, make a noise for a few cents? The direction he is looking for is wrong.

As usual, He Xiulong held a combat meeting while having a meal. At this time, a female soldier came in, leaned into her ear, and whispered, "I found it a detailed work."

He Xiulong asked, "What are you doing?"

The female soldier said, "It seems that she is looking for someone."

He Xiulong nodded: "Stay closely at him and don't be alarmed. If he wants to leave, let him go."

The confidant of Duke Ding looked around, but he couldn't find Jing Laosan.

Helplessly, he had to go back and report his life.

Although he was not found Jing Laosan, he was also a little proud. He looked around in the Ran Army, as if he had entered a no-man's land. The alert within the Ran Army was so relaxed.

When Duke Ding opened his mouth to say something, before he could say it, he spurted out another mouthful of blood.

This is the third time I have vomited blood.

The first time was that Jing Laosan lacked an ear;

The second time, Jing Laosan lacked a finger;

The third time, Jing Laosan disappeared!

"It must be Zhou Cangyue's treacherous plan. He didn't send the third son back at all. It was him who disobeyed his sincerity!"

"Yes, otherwise why wouldn't the third young master be seen? It must be Zhou Cangyue's lie!"

Listening to your aides, Duke Ding said nothing.

He was hasty!

At this moment, another confidant stumbled in and ran in: "Dude, my subordinates found one. one. one corpse."

Duke Ding suddenly sat up from the sickbed.

"What kind of corpse?"

At this moment, he actually hoped that he had been fooled.

San'er was still in Zhou Cangyue's hands, and he did not lose it, nor did he turn into a corpse.
