After crossing, she was forced to become the first assistant

Chapter 199
Be safe.

Wei Xingzhi turned his head and smiled slightly.

Coming out of Wei Mansion, Old General Wei stood at the gate of Wei Mansion with a very ugly expression on his face.

"Grandfather." Wei Xingzhi called out.

Old General Wei sighed heavily, his back bent quite a bit, "I know... this time I'm going to Dan... Alas, grandpa is not by your side anymore."

Wei Xingzhi nodded, "Don't worry, grandfather, I will definitely take Danyang City back."

Old General Wei turned his back and waved his hands, "Go, go, come back safely."

Wei Xingzhi got on his horse, dressed in red armor, and looked extraordinarily heroic.

She tightened the reins, took one last look at Wei Mansion, and galloped towards the city gate.

At the gate of the city, Wan Tengqian was already waiting. He took off his majestic dragon robe. Without armor, he was wearing a dark purple tunic robe. The inner lining and the edges of the sleeves were outlined with golden silk thread. It has a smooth roll, and there is a mist dragon that looks different in shape but looks like a dragon winding from the chest to the waist. Half of the long hair is draped over the back, and a jasper hairpin is crowned on the top of the head, which looks familiar.

When that face is not smiling, the eyelids are slightly lowered, the bridge of the nose is straight, the thin lips are light-colored, and every seemingly gentle outline is extremely sharp.

It wasn't until seeing Wei Xingzhi that his eyes lit up.

The body leaning on the horse hide came forward, staring at Wei Xingzhi, looking at her from top to bottom.

She doesn't seem to like wearing armor. According to her own words, she is thin and agile, and the armor is too heavy, which inhibits her actions.

But today it was changed. After all, it was the first day of the expedition, so it was necessary to set an example.

However, Wan Chengqian's eyes fell on the hairpin that Wei Xingzhi was holding on his head, the jade hairpin, which was a pair with his.

He hooked his lips, "Come?"

Wei Xingzhi's expression was calm, he hummed, got off his horse and cupped his fists and said, "I see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

Wan Teng said modestly, "General Wei is flat."

Not an adult, not a little general, now, she is a justifiable and serious general.

Wei Xingzhi stood up straight, and put his hand on the long sword worn by his waist, "Today the army is dispatched, and all the soldiers of the Eastern Camp will follow the general to the front line to fight. After so many days of training, this day is finally here. Let me ask you, Are you scared."

"Don't be afraid!" Everyone said in unison.

Wei Xingzhi said with satisfaction, "Very good, let's go."

She stepped on the horse again and walked to the front of the team first.

Everyone looked at her, without courtesy to Wan Chengqian at all, and swallowed unconsciously.

This is too... Presumptuous, the emperor's personal conquest is an extremely unusual thing, I didn't expect Mrs. Wei... No, General Wei didn't think of the emperor at all.

Wan Tuqian looked at Wei Xingzhi's serious appearance, and smiled helplessly at the corner of his mouth, then jumped on his horse and chased after Wei Xingzhi.

Last time, Wei Xingzhi went to Jizhou alone for disaster relief. This time, he will accompany her every step of the way.

Danyang fell, and the people and officials in Danyang retreated to Handan. Handan has a vast terrain and abundant food.

If there is no accident, Xishu will definitely pause in Danyang City for a while, and then attack Handan with all its strength. Then, with Wang Qi's conspiracy, it will definitely retreat without a fight again and hand over Handan City.

Then there is Jizhou, Cao Chengmo, the former governor of Handan, who is now the Taiwei of Jizhou, took Cao Chengmo with him on the way to Danyang.

What Wei Xingzhi meant was to rush to Handan before Xishu attacked Handan, guard the city, and then slowly map it.

But this way, the army's footsteps are slow, and more military resources are needed on the road, and it is still extremely far away from Handan.

There has been no news from Zhou Han's side, and Wei Xingzhi has always been worried. If she is not a general, I am afraid that he will gallop to Handan at this time to find Zhou Han's whereabouts.

-

In the spring, the flowers in Handan became more and more beautiful, and the heather trees grew tall, in large clusters, but the people in the city did not have the heart to appreciate the spring scenery.

Hundreds of thousands of people from Danyang flocked to Handan. Even if Handan was rich, it would not be able to accommodate so many people for a while, not to mention the Wei family army in Wang Qi's hands.

After Wang Qi retreated to Handan, someone blatantly reprimanded him for losing the character of the Wei family. On the surface, he said that he was doing it for the good of the people, but in fact, those who reprimanded him disappeared out of thin air, or died somewhere.

Over time, no one dared to speak.

In the past, the Wei family army acted impartially, never burned, killed, looted, or bullied the people. Even during the busy farming season, General Wei would order the soldiers to go to the fields in batches to help the people.

Most of the men in Danyang have joined the army, and the rest are old and weak women and children. General Wei is a good man. He will organize the Wei family army into dozens of troops and let them go home every ten days. But when you return to the army, you must take the certificate of doing ten good deeds on the day you went out before you can return to the army.

Yes, although Danyang City is not as rich as the other places, it is better than the folk customs, which are fun and harmonious.

Those old and weak women and children did not complain because the men in their families went to join the army, and even encouraged them to join the army.

But now, since Old General Wei left Danyang, several major officials in the Wei family army have been dismissed from their posts and placed under house arrest, and such simple customs in the army have disappeared.

Old General Wei trusted Wang Qi the most, and before leaving, he handed over the main powers to Wang Qi.

Those who entered the Wei family army did not know when, there was an additional army, which was completely different from the other troops of the Wei family army.

This army has burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of crimes since it entered Handan City. It was reported to Wang Qi, but it was only a minor punishment and a major warning.

These things about Wang Qi caused the Wei family army to fall apart, and even most of the soldiers wanted to leave.

In the dark prison cell, the iron chains were stained with blood, and the water-green clothes were almost soaked in blood, sticking to his body, as long as he pulled it a little, he would frowned in pain.

Zhou Han was sweating coldly on his forehead, his head was drooping, and his eyes were staring blankly at the blood on the ground.

Her hair was disheveled around her body and sticking to her cheeks. She didn't have the unrestrained and suave appearance of the past.

The door of the cell was suddenly opened, and a middle-aged man in a dark Confucian robe walked in.

He stood still, looked at Zhou Han a few times, couldn't help sighing, smacked his tongue and regretted, "Nephew, why don't you think about what uncle said? As long as you tell me, Wei Xingzhi is in the imperial city. What happened to her, and the property she made behind her back, and why she is so favored by the emperor, then my uncle will immediately ask someone to untie you and give you medicine, why do you have to suffer so much?"

Behind Wang Qi's hands, the wide sleeves almost hang down to the ground.

Zhou Han raised his eyelids slightly, then lowered his eyes again.

uncle?

In the past, he respected him as an uncle, but now...

Let him call a man who colludes with the enemy and treacherously kills loyal ministers and good generals uncle?

Oh, he deserves it too.
