meet again

Chapter 578
The more Shen Jia spoke, the more annoyed she became, she clenched her right fist and swung it vigorously.

A smile flashed across Shen You's eyes, and he said casually: "Third Brother, you are also in your thirties, why are you still so rough and impulsive!"

This year, Shen Jia and Shen You respectively celebrated their 30th birthdays.The so-called standing at thirty, this age is the prime of a man, and it is indeed time to calm down.

However, people's temper is innate, and there are some tempers that cannot be changed.For example, Shen Jia, who has achieved a third-rank official position, usually has a straight face in front of people, but in private, her true nature is revealed.It was still the same easy-going, irritable and impulsive temper that day.

"Anyway, I just don't like Yuan Jiang." Shen Jia waved his fist again: "You have achieved today and today because of your own military exploits. Yuan Jiang also has the face to underestimate you. If he doesn't have a surname Yuan, there is no sister who is the queen and the niece of the princess, how can she have the position she has today."

Shen You laughed: "Don't be so mean. General Yuan has been in the frontier army for 30 years, and he has fought countless battles, big and small. In terms of seniority, he is indeed far superior to me."

Shen Jia raised her eyebrows: "On weekdays, seniority is ranked, but when it comes to the battlefield, you have to see the truth for your subordinates."

Shen You deeply agreed: "You are right. We have been training soldiers for many years, and now it is finally time to see the truth. A man is a man, and making achievements is now."

Shen Jia's blood boiled with excitement, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "Well said! This time, I want to lead the army to kill the enemy and fight for the position of general."

You'd better calm down first, don't always make me worry!

Shen You didn't pour cold water on Shen Jia, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, then I will personally write a memorial for you to ask for credit!"

……

War is imminent.

The atmosphere in the border town suddenly became tense.

"After a few years of stable life, now it's time to fight again."

"Isn't it? Fortunately, the family has enough rice and grain. From today on, don't go out, just hide at home!"

There are a total of eight border towns, large and small, and this one is the largest, with the strongest gate, and the closest to the barracks of the frontier army.Speaking of which, other border towns have been destroyed, but this border town has been attacked fiercely, but there is not much damage.The common people were not so panicked, they muttered in the streets and alleys, and then went home.

There was a tense atmosphere in General Square.

The battlefield is ruthless, and it is inevitable that there will be casualties when you go into battle with your head up.In the past two years, there has been one less household in General Square, which makes people feel sad.

During this battle, almost all the female relatives in Jiangjunfang burned incense in front of the Buddha and asked for amulets for their husbands.

Even Lei Xiaoxue, who has a hearty personality, has begun to toss and turn insomnia these days.

"Fourth brother and sister, I'm in a state of turmoil in my heart, and I'm really not at ease." Lei Xiaoxue had blue shadows in her eyes, and there was a trace of anxiety in her voice: "In the past, they would lead troops out of the border, mostly to drive out and exterminate the Tartar tribes, Occasionally, when encountering Tartar cavalry, the more they win the less."

"This time, the Tartars invaded the border with the whole elite. I don't know if they can resist it."

Yes!He has won many battles before because he has never encountered a real big group of elite Tartars.How powerful the frontier cavalry battalion is, this time we will know the truth.

Feng Shaojun's heart was not so stable, but his face was confident and steady: "Sister-in-law, don't worry! Shen You has devoted himself to training cavalry for eight years. The cavalry battalion is invincible and has never been defeated. We have confidence in the cavalry battalion."

Lei Xiaoxue nodded at first, and then sighed: "My mother chose Shen Jia as her son-in-law, firstly because she thought that the family style of Shen's family was good and generous, and secondly because Shen Jia was working in the palace, so there was no risk. Thinking that Shen Jia will come to the frontier army, and now he will lead the troops into battle."

"When their brothers fought, our sister-in-law and I were both frightened and frightened."

"In another three years, Miao'er will be able to talk about kissing. It's better to pick a scholar for her and live a stable life, don't be like you and me."

The topic jumped too fast.

Feng Shaojun laughed: "I'm afraid you won't count what you say about this matter."

Fang Dalang is 13 years old this year and Shen Miao is 12 years old.This pair of young boys and girls who have just grown up, their love for the first time, their childhood sweethearts, have long been a tacit pair in the eyes of everyone.

Fang Dalang was born as a general, and his biological father was in the cavalry camp of the frontier army. In a year or two at most, Fang Dalang would also enter the barracks.Is it impossible to break up this pair of little mandarin ducks!

Lei Xiaoxue choked on these words, and let out a long sigh in distress.

She watched Fang Dalang grow up.Born handsome, with good character, he couldn't be more kind to Shen Miao.It's a pity not to be a son-in-law for such an outstanding son-in-law.Let's be a son-in-law, won't my daughter have to live such a life of fear in the future?

"Forget it, let's talk about the future." Lei Xiaoxue simply put aside this trouble, and muttered: "Miaoer is fine, Haoer is still young, you should control yourself as soon as possible. Don't be too condescending Fang Jiashiro and Cui Jiasaburo play together."

Feng Shaojun was helpless and funny: "How can I control this. They grew up together since they were young, how many times will they not see each other?"

Childhood sweethearts and so on are really hard to guard against.

……

A few days later, the frontier army and the Tartars had their first large-scale confrontation.

Thirty thousand Tartars attacked the city, and Yuan Jiang led twenty thousand soldiers to defend the city.The Tartars resorted to their usual tricks to drive the Han slaves away from attacking the city.There were cries all day long, wailing was everywhere, and blood flowed like rivers.Such a tragic situation, the young soldiers who saw it for the first time will inevitably feel terrified, or loosen their minds.

Yuan Jiang has been in the frontier army for decades, and he has been tempered to the point of being as cold as iron. He issued strict military orders and ordered the soldiers guarding the city to shoot arrows.

"Everyone who sieges a city is an enemy. The battlefield is like this, either you die or I die. Shoot me arrows!"

Amidst Yuan Jiang's angry shouts, sharp arrows fell from the top of the city one after another, and the besiegers fell one by one.

This battle lasted for a whole day and ended with the Tartars' failure in attacking the city.

This is just the beginning.The Tartars are only retreating temporarily, and will attack the city again in a few days.Yuan Jiang did not slack off in the slightest, and ordered the entire army to martial law.

Facts have proved that Yuan Jiang is very good at defending the city as a general who can become a second-rank general, and his reputation is by no means in vain.In the next half month, the Tartars attacked the city four times, but they all retreated without success.

The cavalry battalion has not been dispatched yet, and continues to wait in the barracks.

Shen Jia, who often scolded Yuan Jiang behind his back, seldom praised Yuan Jiang in front of Shen You: "This Yuan Jiang finally has some real skills."

Shen You laughed: "There is more than a little bit of ability. The Yuan family has guarded the border for generations. In terms of defending the city, it is far better than you and me. Now is not the time to be angry, and put aside all personal grievances for the time being. We must work together to repel the Tartars first." son."

Shen Jia rubbed her nose: "Yes, yes, I will not speak ill of that old man from now on."

Shen You: "..."
