Defend the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 40
An Fuyan, General of the Jinwu Guard, and Han Shimei, the Jiedu Tuiguan of the Four Towns of Anxi, traveled non-stop for a day, and finally arrived at Toufeng before the sun set.

The two sat on the gentle slope in front of the beacon castle, drinking water while looking at the military city in the distance.

The Commander Feng and the four Feng sons stationed here have been tied up by the night watchmen, and more than forty Sogdian personal guards have also been ordered to stay in the Fengbao and not come out.

In order to be safe, the thatch, branches and cow dung that were originally piled up on the top of the beacon to release the wolf smoke were also cleared away by the night watchmen.In view of the need to hold a fire after sunset, a pile of thatched branches was piled up in front of the beacon castle.

An Fuyan was gloomyly reading the letter from home that was several days late when a night watchman at the foot of the mountain brought a Youyi man over.

"Report to General, Cui Canjun ordered his humble post to report, and the ten beacon forts between Fengfeng and Baisha City have been taken down!"

"Where's Cui Hanren?"

"I don't know the humble job."

"Go down."

"promise!"

Just as You Yiren bowed and retreated, An Fuyan asked coldly: "Brother Han, is this the good show you want me to watch?"

"Don't be impatient, General, the show hasn't started yet." Han Shimei moved his body and rubbed the horse's numb thigh.

An Fuyan held up the letter in his hand: "Someone intercepted my family letters, one section was three letters, what exactly do you want to do, don't you even believe me."

Han Shimei looked back and said meaningfully: "General, it's useless for me to believe it. Everyone must believe it. And there are some things that are really inconvenient for you to come forward."

An Fuyan was silent for a moment, then asked: "Han Shimei, what if I let the guards refuse me just now?"

"If you don't obey... If you don't obey, you can only let the night watchmen fight against them. General, haven't you always wanted to know who will win in the end if you let them fight freely?"

"Han Shimei, I finally understand what like father like son is, so you are crazier than your son!"

"I remember Gouzi once said a word called 'If you are not crazy, you can't survive'. At that time, I didn't know what it meant, and thought he was talking nonsense, but now I think it does make sense."

"Not crazy, not live?"

"Someone is going to kill my father and son. If you're not crazy, there's no way out."

Han Shimei was as slow as ever, but he spoke very seriously, and his words were full of killing intent.

He has always been gentle and refined, even Lin Zhongcheng praised him as a gentleman...

An Fuyan knew that he was not as meek as he appeared on the surface, if he had been so meek, he would have died in Xiaobolu long ago, and would not have survived today.

He has never killed anyone with his own hands, not even a chicken, and he may not kill anyone with his own hands in the future, but if he becomes ruthless, even himself, a great general who gallops across the battlefield and killed countless people, will feel palpitated.

An Fuyan couldn't help but think of the scene of killing when he first came here five years ago, and asked in a low voice: "Someone is going to kill you, so you want to kill?"

"I want to eat when I'm hungry. If people want to kill me, I will naturally kill them. I can't let others kill me."

"So while you were pulling me around in circles, you were planning in secret, and now you even dare to seize the military power, even the general!"

"The general speaks too seriously, I just borrow the tiger talisman to use it."

Han Shimei looked in the direction of the military city, and said calmly: "Grand Yu, there are ghosts in the army, and the army's morale is not stable. As the supervisor, I should use thunderbolt to set things right!
In private, someone wants to kill my father and son, even if I, Han Shimei, don't think about myself, I can't ignore my son's safety. "

Poor parents in the world...

An Fuyan sighed secretly, raised his head and said: "Han Shimei, Han Shimei, I finally know why you dared to stay in Xiaobolu to deal with Tubo."

Han Shimei turned to look at him and asked, "Why?"

An Fuyan raised his arm and pointed at his forehead: "You are crazy, you have been crazy since you met that crazy woman, your whole family is crazy!"

"It turns out that madness can also be transmitted from person to person."

Han Shimei sighed, and then changed the subject: "General, you just said that I am planning a strategy these days, but it is not true. In fact, I am a spectator just like you. If you have to say that it has something to do with me, at most it is for them to make a fuss. The big drama provides some convenience."

"them?"

"Yele is so big, who else can there be besides Cui Han, Chen Yichang and Xu Haoran? By the way, there are dogs."

"Is there also Saburo's share?"

"From the letter sent to me by Chen Yichang, Quanzi is not only involved, it can be said that he is responsible for this big show."

The son is out of tune, but he is unambiguous when things happen, just like his mother.

Han Shimei was proud of his son who was crazy about ideas from the bottom of his heart, he thought about it and then smiled: "General, Quanzi is your junior, you watched him grow up.

And you also said that even if he smashed the sky down, as long as it is on the three-acre land of Yele, your uncle will help him withstand it. "

It turned out that he had laid an ambush long ago, and he was foolish enough to sneak into it at that moment.

An Fuyan's lungs were about to explode, and he wanted to scratch his ears, no, he wanted to kick him down the mountain.

At this time, there was a quarrel at the foot of the mountain.

An Fuyan saw that he closed his eyes as if he didn't hear, so he simply pretended he didn't hear.I thought about these things that you father and son have done, and I will see how your father and son end up later.

After waiting for about an incense stick, footsteps came from behind.

Looking back, Qianniu Wei Zhonglang, who was supposed to be in charge of Baisha City, walked over to Li Chengye angrily.

The iron horizontal knife that never left his hand was gone, and he knew it was disarmed by the night watchman at the foot of the mountain without asking.

"General, why are you calling for the last general's weapons in such a hurry, and why do you want to tie up the last general's personal soldiers?"

"General Li, are you asking for a crime?"

"The last general dare not, the last general only needs one explanation!"

An Fuyan motioned him to sit down, and turned to look at Han Shimei: "If you want to explain it, okay, this general will give you an explanation. You were not summoned by this general, and your weapons were not handed over by this general. Your relatives The soldiers were not tied up under the order of this general."

Li Chengye couldn't believe it was true, he was stunned for a while before he realized, glaring at Han Shimei and asked: "Han Shiyu, so it's you, please give me an explanation!"

"Your Majesty invited the two generals to watch a play. Since it is a play, there is no reason to bring swords and soldiers."

Han Shimei spoke lightly, and did not forget to ask him to sit down after speaking.

Li Chengye was furious, and roared: "Han Shimei, how dare you falsely transmit military orders!"

Han Shimei wasn't even afraid of the ferocious Tubo warriors, so how could he be afraid of him? He asked unhurriedly, "General Li, why did you come to Yele because you haven't been to the military city for the past two years?" Did you forget?"

What does the supervising army do? The supervising army is to assist in military affairs and inspect generals.

When you are not serious, everyone calls you brothers; once you are serious, you can fight against the coach.

Seeing that Han Shimei was serious, Li Chengye didn't dare to call him by his name, but still asked, "Han Shiyu, what do you want to do?"

"Please invite the two generals to watch the play, didn't you just say so?"

Han Shimei said perfunctorily, turned to look at the sunset in the west, and said without looking back: "The sun has set, hold the peace fire."

"promise!"

The night watchman in the distance had already prepared, and quickly lit the firewood.

An Fuyan looked in the direction of the military city and murmured to himself: "I want to see if the fire of Ping'an can be ignited, and who will be burned if it is ignited. I am afraid that I will be misunderstood by my cleverness and set myself on fire. "

The fire is clearly lit, and the flames are soaring into the sky. Why do you say it can't be lit?

What is the meaning of "Ping An Fire" when they clearly mentioned "Ping An Fire"? What does self-immolation mean...

Li Chengye was confused and didn't want to ask more questions, so he could only sit down and wait to watch the more inexplicable drama.
