retaliate

Chapter 1448

In the big tent, the map was hung on a wooden board beside it.

The curtain was lifted, and the morning light outside was faintly illuminating the map.

Uda lit a candle and moved to the edge of the map.

"Hanbi lost 1 horses last time, and the remaining 10. This time Bianjing dispatched 10 reinforcements, adding up to [-] horses. [-] horses should not be underestimated."

Pei Jian made the opening remarks first, then withdrew.

Qin Wang took a sip of tea and said: "Our army has two ways to attack Yongzhou. However, Hanbi's [-] troops are in hand, and Yongzhou City is at the corner of each other. Our army is passive. And Xinzhou is on the side, and may surprise our army at any time. Right side. This battle is dangerous.

The second is to still attack Xinzhou.Han Bi must lead the army behind, waiting for an opportunity to attack our army.What is even more worrying is that if he divides his troops to attack Jinzhou..."

"That will cut off our army's retreat!" Jiang Cunzhong said: "Your Highness, I think that the only way is to fight quickly. Once the delay...our army is in danger!"

"It seems that Han Bi has been planning this for a long time." He Lianrong said: "Our army's capture of Jinzhou seems to have benefited, but what follows is a dilemma."

"Is Jin Yiwei sure?" King Qin asked.

He Lianyan came out and said without hesitation: "Yes!"

King Qin nodded, "Okay! But, no matter whether you have it or not, Xinzhou, Gu, it's settled!"

……

The northern army was approaching, and the people in Xinzhou City were busy collecting food, and the merchants also raised the price of food one after another, taking advantage of the war to make a fortune.

Ma Qun had just returned from inspection. After returning to the state, someone came to report.

"Zhizhou, someone is spreading rumors about you outside."

"What rumors?" Ma Qun said calmly, "The old man behaves rightly and sits upright. What are you afraid of?"

"Talk about you..." The person who came was a petty official with a troubled expression on his face, "Say you use public funds to support... women."

Ma Qun's eyelids twitched, "It's nonsense."

"Yes." The little official said goodbye.

Ma Qun said coldly: "Tell them that those who spread rumors at this moment have ulterior motives."

The staff next to him said: "I'm afraid it has something to do with Huang Chi. Zhizhou, if this matter is brought to Bianjing, it will be a scandal!"

The situation of scholar-officials in the Southern Zhou Dynasty was very favorable. For example, whoring prostitutes, there were rules in the Tang Dynasty, and officials were not allowed to enter or leave brothels.Although the rules have long existed in name only, the rules have not been abolished.

However, it was an elegant thing for the scholar-bureaucrats in the Southern Zhou Dynasty to prostitute.

man!
How can literature inspire without women?

The old man went to the brothel not to prostitute, but to find inspiration.

There were harsh people in the Southern Zhou Dynasty, who named the writing style of this class of literati, and called it: thigh pie!It is ridiculed that such people can only write poems and lyrics while lying on a woman's lap.

Prostitution is a transaction, and a transaction is fine.But the nature of nurturing women has changed.

This is moral corruption!

In the Southern Zhou Dynasty, you can wash the face of the emperor with saliva, you can be proud of the prince, you can go to the flower streets and willow alleys, and you can eat, drink and have fun with public money, but you just can't let your morality be dusted.

Once the matter ferments, Ma Qun's official career is basically over.

In the future, at most, he will be an official in a remote place and spend his whole life in remorse.

This is unacceptable to the horses.

"Is it really easy to bully that thief as an old man?" Ma Qun's eyes flashed sharply, "Call him!"

The horses then went to the lobby.

"Here's some tea."

The horses sat down with calm expressions, "No need for tea."

Tea art was a necessary skill for the scholars and bureaucrats in the Southern Zhou Dynasty. Later, it spread, and even the common people fell in love with fighting tea. It’s okay for one person to make a cup of tea, and everyone competes to see who can make a better pattern.

Before the cup of tea was finished, there was the sound of hurried footsteps.

"The scouts of the Northern Border Army kept approaching, cutting off our army's eyes and ears, and the next step is the army's pressure..."

Huang Chi walked into the lobby while talking.

"At this moment, my mind is full of matters of defending the city. If there is nothing wrong with Zhizhou, I can do it myself."

"What does it mean to be free?"

Ma Qun was about to catch him, and sneered at the words, "I am the governor of Xinzhou, and everything in Xinzhou is under my jurisdiction. I ordered you to come here to discuss matters of city defense, but you Dodging in every possible way, impatient in every possible way. Do you really think I am easy to bully? Come on!"

Bah!
The teacup was smashed down, and the tea splashed on Huang Chi's feet with a confused face.

"Why do I shirk in every possible way?" Huang Chi was furious.

More than a dozen small officials and sergeants came in, Ma Qun pointed at Huang Chi, "Take it!"

Huang Chi was furious, "Who dares?!"

"How dare you resist orders!?" Ma Qun sneered, "Or, you want to rebel!"

Huang Chi hesitated for a moment before being controlled.Then the five flowers are tied.

"Order the state officials to come."

State officials gathered outside the lobby.

"beat!"

Huang Chi was pushed on the bench, and two minor officials beat him desperately with a board.

clap clap clap!
Being stripped of your clothes in public is a humiliation, and doing something like a stick is even more embarrassing.

clap clap clap!
After twenty sticks, the two executioners took a look inside the hall.

If you continue to fight, something will happen.

Sitting in the hall, Ma Qun sneered, "Are you his accomplice?"

clap clap clap!
The old dog is trying to kill me... Huang Chi was desperate and tried to look up, wanting to ask for help.

But those officials looked at him with pity, schadenfreude, contempt, and joy in their eyes... But there was no sympathy or anger.

Different ways of civil and military!
Just when he was in despair, a sergeant rushed in. Seeing him being tortured, he was startled for a while, and then shouted: "The northern border army is here."

The horses in the hall calmed down, "Why are you panicking? Keep an eye on the top of the wall. The old man will come right away."

He got up and walked out, and took a look at Huang Chi, "Forgive you for now, why don't you go to the city?"

The sergeant rushed over, untied the rope, and helped Huang Chi get up and swim away.

In the army, soldiers who have committed crimes are often punished with sticks, and the doctors have summed up a set of experiences. If the trauma is not serious, after the whipping, they should stand up and walk around a few times quickly, so that they will recover quickly.

The horses led the people away, and the sergeant couldn't help being angry when he saw Huang Chi gritted his teeth and persisted. At this moment, Ding Zhuo came in and was shocked when he saw this, "Why?"

Huang Chi gritted his teeth and said, "The old dog just found an excuse to beat me in public. Not to mention the number of sticks."

Not to mention the number of rods, it is to beat him to death.It is similar to the hints of the inner and outer horoscopes and inner horoscopes of the prison in another world.

With tears in his eyes, Ding Zhuo supported Huang Chi's other side, "The northern border army is here. If you win this battle, the old dog will definitely find another excuse to beat you to death."

If you are defeated, you will either be captured or die in battle.

Huang Chi's breathing became short of breath and his face turned red.

"Defender..." Ding Zhuo said softly, "Whether you win or lose, you will die."

"Why is the old dog like this?" Huang Chi asked in pain.

"When the villain just came, I heard some rumors outside." Ding Zhuo said: "It is said that Zhizhou uses public funds to support women."

"This is a morally corrupt thing. Although I knew it, I didn't tell it to the outside world... Does the old dog think that I am spreading it?" Huang Chi became angry, and then his face turned pale. people?"

You are dead!

Both Ding Zhuo and the sergeant bowed their heads.

"Let's go to the top of the city first."

Huang Chi couldn't ride a horse, so he could only be carried slowly to the city by the two of them.When going up the steps, every step is extra painful.He gritted his teeth and endured.

Before walking to the top of the city, I heard shouts like a tsunami outside.

"Your Highness is a thousand years old!"

"Your Highness is a thousand years old!"

"Your Highness is a thousand years old!"

Huang Chi went up and walked to the edge of the battlements. There was an army formation in front of him.

Numerous soldiers of the northern border army wore black armor and lined up, including infantry and cavalry in an orderly manner.

Under the banner of the Chinese Army, someone came on horseback.

The person who came was a civil servant, and beside him were two monks, each holding a shield, ready to block the crossbow arrows at the top of the city at any time.

The civil servant shouted at the top of his voice:

"Your Highness said that the Great Tang Dynasty and the Southern Zhou Dynasty have the same culture and the same race. They were originally a family. Nian Xu spied on the Great Tang and humiliated His Highness. His Highness was furious and immediately sent troops to the south..."

These words made the reason for going south very clear.

"His Royal Highness has the ambition to unify the world, destroy the Northern Liao Dynasty, and unify the Tang Dynasty. Only the Southern Zhou Dynasty remains in the world. Now surrender, except for officials who oppose the New Deal, the rest will be hired according to their rank. You can think carefully, don't Self mistake!"

The civilian officials retreated, and the two monks stared at the top of the city. There, more than a dozen defenders held crossbows in their hands, but did not fire them.

"No, why are you looking at the horses?" A monk asked in surprise.

"Yes!"

The defenders were all looking at the horses with complicated eyes.

Ma Qun was one of the literary leaders who opposed the New Deal.

According to King Qin's rules, once the defenders surrender, everyone can have a good future, except for the horses.I guess it's time to go home and eat old rice!

Ma Qun sneered and said: "Prime Minister Han is leading the army outside, our army only needs to guard and wait for Prime Minister Han to attack."

What he said was lacking in momentum, Huang Chi coughed dryly, and subconsciously wanted to add.But then he lowered his eyes, his eyes gloomy.

Ding Zhuo said in a low voice: "Hired according to grade!"

The yellow thorn is a defensive envoy, and if he surrenders, his status is not low.

"The horses are a little disappointed." Ding Zhuo gloated.

The horses cheered for the defenders at the top of the city, wrote a poem, and went back to have lunch impassionedly.

On that day, the Northern Xinjiang Army did not attack the city.

In the early morning of the second day, Huang Chi limped up to the top of the city.

Later, the herd of horses also came.

When he saw Huang Chi, he snorted coldly. "Thieves join the army!"

Huang Chi propped his hands on the top of the wall and looked carefully into the distance.

In the distance, the Northern Border Army is approaching.

Rows of sergeants moved forward neatly, and the sound of footsteps was breathtaking, making one feel that one's heart was also beating along with this rhythm!
The army stopped.

The civil servant came down again, accompanied by two monks.

He shouted, "Have you figured it out?"

No one in the city made a sound.

"The civil officials of the Southern Zhou Dynasty regarded you as pigs and dogs, but in the Tang Dynasty, if the civil officials dared to humiliate the warriors, the Shangguan would naturally make the decision for you. The Shangguan can't make the decision, and there is also Your Highness! Your Highness said that the soldiers should not be allowed to bleed for the country Weep again!"

Huang Chi's body shook!
He said in a low voice, "We can't let the soldiers shed blood and tears for the country!"

Ma Qun drew out their long swords, pointed at the civil servants and cursed: "I, the generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty, are loyal to His Majesty. You are so provocative, it makes people laugh, hahahaha!"

Choke!

A long knife rested on his neck.

Behind him came Huang Chi's voice.

"My loyalty is only for those who know the goods!"
