The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 33

Zhao Kuangyin and his son marched towards Qinzhou with more than [-] forbidden troops. Although there were a lot of people, the marching speed was indeed not slow.

Zhao Xu couldn't help feeling that the Imperial Zhou Army was indeed the most powerful army at this time.Even if there are individual young soldiers, it does not affect the combat effectiveness of the whole army!
Zhao Kuangyin and others rode at the forefront, with relaxed expressions:
"Brother Huailiang, how is it under this brat? Did he make things difficult for you?"

"General Zhao, deputy capital..."

"What's your name, general? Big brother? With our relationship, can't I call you big brother? Besides, there are no outsiders."

When Gao Huailiang called him a general, Zhao Kuangyin was not happy. Being open-minded by nature, he likes to call others brothers and brothers the most, otherwise he would not be sworn brothers with Chai Rong, who was down and out in the past.

Not to mention that there will be no ten brothers from Yishe behind, and it will not play a huge role in promoting his enthronement in the future.

Even Zhao Xu next to him poked his head over:
"Uncle Gao, we don't need to be so rigid now, just be casual, otherwise my father will give me a hard time, hahaha."

For a while, everyone was amused by Zhao Xu.

Well, this is going to war, seeing you all crying and mourning, those who don't know think you are going to the funeral?
Be happy, be in a better mood, the chances of winning are better, right?

Didn't it mean that the underdogs will win?

But mourning soldiers must win, it is said that they are soldiers who have lost battles, so we are going here, okay?

Gao Huailiang also let go of his restraint, and chatted happily with Zhao Kuangyin and the others. The entire circle of generals was full of laughter.

The surrounding soldiers heard it and were full of confidence in this rush to rescue Qinzhou.

Because the officers are so relaxed, it means that this battle is easy to win.

At this time, they heard another piece of good news. The southwestern battalion recruited envoy Wang Jing to lead an army to attack Weiwu City.

After fighting hard, they successfully broke through Weiwu City, the Shu army abandoned the city and fled, and captured more than 300 people under Jiang Hui from the Shu Military Academy.

This is definitely good news for Zhou Jun. The whole army is excited, so everyone speeds up spontaneously.

The army soon entered the territory of Qinzhou, and a big battle between Zhou and Shu was about to start soon.

There is a small mountain village in the northeast of Fengxian County, Qinzhou. It is sparsely populated, but it is located on an important traffic road, and its geographical location is very important.

Although there are bandits and robbers here from time to time, it doesn't stop people from investing in a small business here.

There is a wine shop not far away, and there is a well outside the shop. It is really rare to have a well here.

There was a man in the store, about thirty years old, with a dark face and a pair of wise eyes, looking out from time to time.

He is still holding a lupine in his hand. It's not summer, what is this guy doing with it?If Zhao Xu were here, he would definitely say that he was a coward.

It's no wonder that anyone who sees it will say that he is pretending, but those who are familiar with him know that he does not leave his lupine all year round.

Everyone calls him Lao Miao, but I don't know what his name is.He used to live in the Nanyang area, so he didn't know why he came here recently.

What's even more strange is that he paid a huge price to buy this hotel, which is the only wine shop within ten miles.

But the value he spent was far higher than this, and ten such stores could buy it.

He didn't keep a clerk in the store, only himself, the boss was him, and the clerk was also him.

It's strange to be able to spend several times the price of this shop to buy this small shop, but not willing to spend money to hire a buddy.

There must be a demon when things go wrong, this sentence is not false at all, he does have a certain purpose, he remembered a sentence from his ancestors.

His ancestor died in the Jiayin year hundreds of years ago. He was a high-ranking person. Before the last expedition, he called his eldest son to him and left his instructions.

Of course, this entrustment became a will in the end, and the eldest son finally followed his father's instructions, led a part of the clan, and retired.

It is recorded in history that his eldest son and grandson both died fighting for the country's defense of the city.

This is also a blindfold. Their generation has been multiplying, and it has been more than 700 years since his generation.

He clearly remembered the will, which probably meant:
"The general trend of the world is that the long-term division must be united, and the long-term unity must be divided. This troubled world will soon be unified again, but it will inevitably be divided again soon.

Although the dynasty was tyrannical for a while, it was only a flash in the pan in the end. I assisted the lord for a lifetime, but it finally proved that he is not a wise lord.

Seven hundred years later, in the northwest land, the dragon drove past, vacated on the ninth day, and China revived.

My descendants should assist such a person, open up borders and restore China for me, and prosper forever. I calculated that one of my descendants will definitely come to that person.

This is what I have learned all my life, and now it is passed on to you. If there is any accident for me this time, don’t ask, and take the tribe back to my hometown in Nanyang, and hide my name.

Pass on what I have learned, and remember that our family name cannot be restored before the time comes, so let's take the surname Miao for the time being. "

Sure enough, he went out this time and never came back. He himself died of illness on the way out.

He died before leaving the teacher, and the hero burst into tears, leaving his name in history.

His eldest son followed his will and returned to his hometown.

From then on, he kept his name incognito, inherited the family, and passed on his father's mantle. In this way, the Miao family became a well-known big family in the local area.

The people in this small hotel are called Miao Xun, who is a member of the Miao family. He has been smart since he was a child, and is deeply loved by the elders of the family. The family has inherited that he himself learned all of them when he was a weak crown. Since then, he has been traveling all over the world.

I haven't been back to my hometown for many years, and I can't bear to see this war-torn era. I vowed to learn from my ancestors, assist Mingjun, and rule the world.

Just a few days ago, he watched the sky at night and found that the Ziwei star was gradually moving westward, but no emperor of any country went to the northwest recently.

He tried divination by himself, but he didn't get any results. He just vaguely knew that a nobleman was coming, so he got up and came here.

Looking at the countries of the Five Dynasties, the Northern Han Dynasty lived on one side, with a narrow land and few people, the Later Shu retreated in Hanzhong, and the Southern Tang Dynasty defended by the river, and had no intention of entering.The other small countries in the south of the Yangtze River are even more unbearable, with constant conquests all day long, without the slightest sense of unity.

It seems that only in the Later Zhou Dynasty, the national power was strong, the monarch was wise, and there were countless fierce generals under his command. In the battle of Gaoping, even the Khitan avoided their edge.

I heard that Hou Zhou's army is planning to take back the four prefectures of Qin and Feng, but the emperor did not conscript himself. Could it be that this person is a certain general of Hou Zhou?
Miao Xun didn't want to understand, but he had already decided to go to Hou Zhou to see if he could fulfill his ancestor's wish.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have sold this small shop.

While he was meditating, the sound of horseshoes outside broke the silence, Miao Xun got up and looked outside the shop.

Outside is a soldier riding a horse. Judging from his armor, he should be a soldier of the Shu Kingdom. There is also a special bag for official documents on the horse.

This should be a spy or messenger from Houshu, Miao Xun seems to have made up his mind.

Shu soldiers tied their horses outside the store, came in with knives, bows and arrows, and when they came in, they didn't forget to bring in the letter bag on the horse's back.

As soon as he entered the shop, he muttered loudly:

"I'm dying of thirst, bring me a pot of hot water, hurry up, and a bowl of noodles, what kind of information is this weather asking me to send..."

This guy is a stunned young man at first glance, how can he be so loud when sending information, it seems to let everyone in the world know:
"I'm here for information."

Miao Xun's eyes flashed, and then he returned to normal and put the feather fan up, and walked in front of the soldier:
"Master, I'm really sorry, there's really no hot water in the shop, only wine is left, do you want to..."

The meaning of Miao Xun is already obvious, there is no water, but wine.

But you can't seem to drink alcohol?

This nervous soldier didn't remember the captain's arrangement when he heard this.

He didn't care about that much anymore, so he ordered Miao Xun to bring some wine and meat.

Miao Xun cut some cooked beef and poured him a bowl of wine.

Shu Bing gulped it down, feeling that it was still not enough, so he wanted another bowl.

Miao Xun pretended to be embarrassed: "Master Jun, you have military affairs, I think you still..."

That means that if you still have something to do, don’t drink any more. If you drink any more, it will delay your work. I’m doing it for your own good.

The Shu army didn't appreciate it:
"Take it if you're told, there's so much nonsense, I'm afraid that the military master won't give you the money, so hurry up and take it."

After speaking, his eyes widened, and with his black face, he was like a living Li Kui alive.

"Since you're looking for death, I won't stop you, you are my nomination." Miao Xun thought in his heart.

He turned around and walked in, and then a jar of Fenjiu came out, the mud seal was opened and the aroma of the wine overflowed, Shu soldiers are also people who know wine.

When he smelled the aroma, he salivated, and immediately snatched the wine jar from Miao Xun's arms without saying a word.

There is no need for a bowl, it is not enjoyable, it is only enjoyable when you drink it in a big gulp, and look up.He raised the jar and drank.

For a moment, the whole small shop was filled with aromas, and Miao Xun silently watched the Shu soldiers hold the altar and drink.

In fact, this Shu soldier is also, you still have a mission, how can you drink here?Soon half a jug of wine was consumed by him.

Hiccupped, yelled happily, and laughed hahahaha after speaking.

Suddenly he realized that something was wrong, he knew how much he could drink, half a jug of wine was nothing to worry about, why was he a little dizzy today?

Soon his consciousness was blurred, and he fell on the table.Miao Xun came over:
"You deserve to be unlucky. Let me borrow something from you as my vote to realize my ideal and the wishes of my ancestors."

As he said that, he took the letter bag from Shu Bing, and opened it to see that it was full of information about Zhou Jun, as well as the deployment of troops, which he must have detailed.

Miao Xun didn't take a closer look, picked up the letter bag and rode on the army horse outside, and went straight to the direction of Zhou Jun. Who knew that this trip happened to meet Zhao Xu and his party...
