Pick all the cold branches
Chapter 16 6. Stop Killing
The two love each other deeply, one side is yearning for a long time, the other side is the first taste of cloud and rain, they are so greedy for each other that they can't let go until there is a noise outside the door.
Zhen Xian was hugged by Jia Fei, and vaguely heard someone shouting outside, his voice seemed to be anxious, and he reacted blankly for a long time before waking up.
It was already bright daylight, and the sun was three poles high.
How decent is it to be promiscuous in such a daytime...
What's more, it's still a border town where the war has just stopped.
Zhen Xian was suddenly embarrassed, and subconsciously got up to grab the messy and scattered clothes.
But Jia Fei hugged him back, and pressed him down for a long time to make intimacy again and again, until he pushed him so urgently that he reluctantly straightened up half of his body.
"You rest, don't worry about it." Jia Fei leaned over and kissed Zhen Xian's eyebrows lightly, and then got down to put on his clothes.
Zhen Xian lay on his side on the couch, seeing Jiafei in front of him with nimble hands and feet making himself fully dressed, remembering how the Second Highness didn't know how to dress or comb his hair when he left the servants, he couldn't help but chuckled.
He laughed suddenly.Jiafei didn't know, turned back to look at him, met his eyes, couldn't help itching and grabbed him for a long time, until the breath was almost exhausted, he reluctantly let go, and took care of him carefully. After covering the tent, I straightened my sleeves and went out.
As soon as he opened the door, he was bumped into the chest by the master outside the door who was jumping and jumping with a loud voice.
His Royal Highness King Jing frowned and blocked it with one hand, directly picked up the tender and slender neck from behind, picked him up like a kitten, and called out in a low voice: "Qilang."
Jiashou was still rambunctious at first, but he was grabbed by his elder brother unexpectedly. He was so frightened that his ears were stuck to his head, and he quickly shrank his neck and responded: "Second brother..." After a while, he couldn't help but look around , asked: "Where is Mr. Zhen?"
Where did Jia Fei have the patience to explain the situation to his younger brother, and ignored him at all, and asked coldly, "What's the matter with you? Why are you making such a fuss?" When there was not enough time, he was disturbed by this child who hadn't even grown his hair yet. He was very unhappy, and his tone was inevitably bad.
Although Jiashou was shallow-hearted, he could tell that the second brother was angry with him.The second brother usually doesn't like to go out with the royal relatives and relatives, although he is not cruel to these brothers and sisters, he is not friendly either, unlike the third and sixth brothers who often take him to play together.Except for the fourth brother, Jiashou had never heard of anyone who could get close to the second brother, but he had heard a lot of "bad things" about the second brother since he could remember.Jiashou was originally a little afraid of this second brother who was much older than him, but now that he was reprimanded, he flinched even more, and he hesitated for a long time before he could utter a complete sentence.
"They locked up Brother Su..."
Jia Fei's eyes moved slightly when he heard this.
The little Tatar princess who came from the north with Xiaoxian and Qilang is really a troublesome existence now.
It stands to reason that this girl is also considered to be kind to Xiaoxian and Qilang, so he shouldn't treat her poorly.However, the two countries have been at odds for many years, and the grievances are raging. If such a Tatar Begi suddenly came to the border town of the Holy Dynasty, how could the soldiers treat him calmly? What's more, Suge Baba has a special status after all.Batu Mengke was beaten back this time, and most likely he would send envoys to negotiate a peace. At that time, he would inevitably make a fuss about his younger sister.No matter how you say it, it's embarrassing.
Unless, you can keep her for your own use.
Jiafei couldn't help but look at his innocent young brother, and then glanced sideways at Tongqian who was guarding the door.
Tong Qian was also very guilty, afraid that the prince would think that he was not doing his job properly and would leave him so much trouble, but now that he was glanced at like this, he immediately broke out in cold sweat, and hurriedly coaxed Jiashou aside as if begging, "Seven Your Highness, please do me a favor, go back first, the prince has his own concerns about this matter, and the safekeeping will be properly arranged for you."
He was anxious in his heart, fearing that the little prince would make a fuss endlessly, but instead he forgot that he should not have said such things for His Highness Prince Jing, let alone made such a promise, and it was still in front of Wang Jia himself. .
Before the words finished, Jiafei cleared his throat carefully.
Tong Qian shuddered violently, his ears pricked up.
But Jiashou didn't realize it, and continued to babble non-stop, complaining that those frontier soldiers were rude and unfair to Brother Su.
Until Jiafei pressed his shoulder.
"Qiro, go back first."
He spoke in a low voice, unrepentant.
Jiashou was stunned for a moment, not understanding whether he was refusing or what he meant, so he couldn't help but frowned and shouted again: "Second brother!"
"Go back first." Jia Fei frowned and repeated, without further talking to his younger brother, he asked Tong Qian to send His Royal Highness Seventh back home.
Tong Qian received this order, thinking that the prince had no intention of punishing him for the time being, he was relieved, picked up the ribbon and left in a hurry.
Only Jiashou was still kicking and struggling in every possible way, but it didn't help.
Jiafei watched Tongqian take Jiashou away, and ordered the guards and maidservants in front of the door not to disturb Mr. Zhen's rest—let alone let Mr. Zhen go out of this door, so he went to the meeting hall alone.
Now the little Tatar princess is absolutely determined not to let go.
Of course it's not good to close it like this.If it is spread out, there will be no place for the majestic demeanor and face of the upper kingdom.
There are many rough people in the ranks, and it is understandable to ignore these reasons, but the four chief soldiers are all town officials, and it is a bit strange to act like this.
Unless something happened that made them suddenly lose their footing.And the one who has this amount of weight and is related to the little Tatar princess is probably Batu Mengke.
Jiafei thought all the way to the meeting hall, and sure enough, he saw Xue, Liu, Li, and Bai, the four generals, huddled together and muttering something, as if they were still arguing.
"What happened to the four adults?"
Jiafei was also polite, raised his foot across the threshold, and asked directly.
When he asked, the four people in the hall jumped up like cats with their tails burned. They all turned around and stared at His Highness Prince Jing who had already walked in front of him.
"My lord... my lord." Among the four, Xuanfu Liu Rong was the most tactful, and hurriedly took the lead and bowed in salute, but the dryness in his voice still betrayed the nervousness in his heart.
The other two chief soldiers also hurriedly saluted with fists in their hands, but Bai Haoren was the only one who stood there staring blankly with his mouth wide open.
Chief Bai was really terrified.
This battle was fought extremely arduously, with ups and downs, ups and downs, and countless times. Bai Haoren had the thought of "the game is over, there is no way out, and the brothers will die here for the country today". It was Zhen Xian who the chief soldier was afraid of.
Among the soldiers of the four towns, Bai Haoren is not the only one who has heard of the "Xiaolang from the Zhen family, Tanhua in the Golden Palace", but Bai Haoren is the only one who knows that Zhen Xian has arrived in Shuozhou seven years ago, and he served as his military advisor for three years .
Not only that, he also asked the Tartars to take the military division away.
Now that everything is connected together, Bai Haoren suddenly understands the meaning of every sentence that Jia Fei said when he was pulled from the bed in the middle of the night.
His Highness Prince Jing is here for the military division.
It is true to save His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, and it is true to frighten the Tartars and appease the border, but His Royal Highness Prince Jing must have Zhen Xian in his heart.
Especially since the military adviser just came back, he slept in the same room with His Highness Prince Jing.Not only did I sleep, but I also slept for a whole night, plus a whole morning.
Who is His Highness Prince Jing?As a prince and prince, he went north alone to guard the gate of the country. I heard that since the king came here, he has been diligent every day. Veterans should feel ashamed.
But just this morning, the prince closed the door and didn't come out.
As for what the prince is doing in the house, it goes without saying, anyway, the military adviser is also in the room, and it is estimated that he has not been able to come out until now.
Raising troops to fight against a country for one person, this kind of thing that I had only heard in the play suddenly appeared before my eyes, and I seemed to have committed a huge taboo unconsciously.Bai Haoren's heart was already filled with tears.
Others only said that His Highness Prince Jing fought a big victory that was almost impossible to win, and they didn't dare to doubt it any more, they were all in admiration.Only Zongbing Bai was so frightened that he was about to lose his courage, and his mind was full of thinking that the prince might kill him at any time.After all, he abducted Mr. Zhen from the prince, not only abducted, but also lost...Even if he really didn't know anything back then, just did those stupid things to him, this prince wanted to kill him , There are too many reasons to kill him.
Bai Haoren's face was green with sweat, and he stared at Jiafei for a long time, until he was hit hard by Liu Rong several times before he came back to his senses.
This time he regained his composure, but simply lost his footing, and fell to his knees at Jiafei's feet with a "plop".
The atmosphere is suddenly subtle.
Jiafei looked down at Bai Haoren, who was on the ground, and smiled slightly, "If Zongbing Bai has any opinions on Xiao Wang, it's okay to speak up, why bother to bully Xiao Wang like this."
When Bai Haoren heard this, he became more and more flustered, like a chicken being strangled by the neck, and said anxiously: I'm afraid that it will be too late for you to have an opinion on me, so how dare you have an opinion on you... He was terrified, and his mind had already been through for a while. The pot was muddy, and without even thinking about it, I yelled out first: "My lord, I have a humble job... I deserve death for my humble job! My lord is lenient! My lord forgives my sins!"
He was referring to Zhen Xian's matter.
But the other three chief soldiers did not know.
The fact that they lost the Seventh Prince to the Tartars unknowingly made them quite guilty, and even though they have guarded the border for many years, it is not a loss of power and humiliation to the country. It was the first battle, but they also knew that this battle was actually won by His Royal Highness Prince Jing, who was on the battlefield for the first time. Why didn't they feel ashamed?In addition, a big event happened early this morning, and this big event—His Royal Highness King Jing happened to get up late today. The four of them hesitated in this meeting hall, for fear of disturbing the rare "interest" of the prince. I didn't dare to report... Negligence of duty is the first, incompetence is the last, just when I was full of anxiety and trembling, I ran into such an incident of "covering the state affairs and delaying the military plane", and several general soldiers were beating small drums in their hearts, How could he bear the shock of Bai Haoren kneeling down suddenly...
Especially Liu Rong.
Liu Zongbing was just admonished by Jia Fei for training soldiers with Sun Wu a few days ago. He was worried at first, but now he was provoked by Bai Haoren, and he thought that Lao Bai was planning to dump him. The brothers expressed their sincerity first and asked for leniency, so they hurriedly followed along. He knelt down and shouted "guilty".
In the blink of an eye, two of the chief soldiers of the four towns had already knelt down, and the other two couldn't stand up immediately, and they also knelt down together as if their knees were limp, and they all followed "deserving death".
Although I didn't really feel how damned I was, but since everyone knelt down, it was always right to kneel first.
This scene is somewhat comical.
Looking at the four frontier officials kneeling on the ground in a daze, Jia Fei couldn't help but laugh.
Jia Fei is actually clear.None of the four commanders was wrong, they just fell into his schemes.Even Bai Haoren really couldn't complain.
It's not that he doesn't mind at all that Bai Haoren threw Xiaoxian to the Tatars back then.But His Royal Highness Prince Jing was as clear as a mirror, and if he really wanted to pursue the responsibility, the first one who should be hacked into pieces would be himself.What right does he have to mind a mere Bai Haoren who knows no crime?
He asked the four unlucky ones to get up and talk first.
However, among these four people, you look at me and I look at you, and none of them is willing to start first.
Why are the commanders-in-chief of the four towns ordered by the father more brain-dead than the other?It's no wonder that after years of hard fighting at the border, the little Tatar prince made him dizzy.
Jia Fei was so angry that he was about to laugh, but instead became vicious, and felt like playing tricks, he simply leaned on the upper seat and asked them: "Then tell me, what is your crime?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Haoren immediately buried his head lower.
From the time Xue, Liu and Li knelt down with him, Bai Haoren knew that he was in trouble again.But he can't expose the matter in public, right?How embarrassing are the three colleagues who have already jumped into the pit?What's more, His Highness Prince Jing couldn't let him talk about those things back then... The matter has come to this point, the only option is to pretend to be dead.Chief Bai gritted his teeth, and almost pressed his face to the floor.
The other three waited for a long time, and saw that the leader kneeling down had completely put on a stance of beating him to death and not speaking. They each yelled at Lao Bai, the dishonest person, a hundred or eighty times in their hearts, so they had no choice but to push and shove. Let the most intelligent Liu Rong speak out.
Liu Rong almost fainted from crying on the spot.In the past, he only heard that His Majesty's second son, His Highness Prince Jing, was a "powerful" character. He never thought, how could this prince be so ungrateful for others?Anyway, the four of them are also the chief generals guarding the border. They have knelt down in unison and shouted that they are guilty and begged the lord for mercy. Can the lord let them be graciously?He even asked them "what's the crime?"... Could he still say in public, "We see that you and Mr. Zhen are reunited after a long absence, so we don't have the nerve to knock on the door"?Even if he dared to say it, could the prince really want to hear it?
Poor, clever and cunning as Zongbing Liu, he racked his brains for a long time before hesitating to say this sentence: "I...we...failed to protect His Highness the Seventh Prince, and made His Highness suffer and frightened..."
"Oh." Jia Fei raised his eyebrows on purpose, and waved his hands with a suppressed smile, "Didn't the seventh brother come back in good condition, so let's not mention this matter."
That said... as if they were fussing over a molehill and knelt on the floor for nothing...
Liu Rong's heart was as bitter as if he had been soaked in Coptis chinensis. He knew that the prince was forcing him into the tiger's mouth, but he had no choice but to cry and say: "My lord...it's not that we sincerely concealed important events, it's just that... It's not that seeing the prince has worked hard for many days, it's rare for him to take a day off—"
Jiafei finally waited for him to utter these words, and finally laughed out loud. After laughing, his expression stopped, and he asked in a deep voice: "It was Batu Mengke who sent an envoy to submit a letter. What tricky thing did the little prince mention?" The terms of the peace talks scare you like this?"
Jiafei deliberately investigated and considered Batu's aggressiveness, otherwise how dare he go north to make such a big deal.
The little prince is arrogant and arrogant by nature, even if he loses the battle, he will never be willing to just run away with his tail between his legs in such a mess, he must try to get back some face.Furthermore, although this man is vicious and contemptuous towards the Han people, he is very affectionate towards his own people. It is precisely because of this that Batu Mengke was able to control the grassland with all the people in his youth.
No matter as the lord or as the elder brother, Batu Mengke would never leave his younger sister alone.
Batu Mengke will definitely not take advantage of him in the matter of truce, and Jiafei has already prepared for this.
The only thing I didn't expect was the reaction of the four chief soldiers.
They are all soldiers who have guarded the frontier battlefield for many years. Although they are restricted by the strength of the troops and the situation, they have been bullied by the little prince for many years, but they have been gritting their teeth and sticking to it. Opponents who have been in constant confrontation over the years should also understand, so why mess themselves up?
At that time, Jiafei didn't feel that at least half of these four miserable faces were frightened by himself.
He has experienced ups and downs since he was a child, and he has experienced ups and downs in big winds, waves, and dead ends. Many things in this world can no longer enter his eyes and his heart, so he has many more than ordinary talents. Shocked and calm.
But there are also downsides.
Just as ordinary people often don't understand him, he often ignores the pain and fear in people's hearts.Joy, anger, sorrow, joy, what people want, to His Highness Prince Jing, are more like stacks of chips stacked in front of him, and they are calculations that can be weighed.
However, when the calculation gradually goes off the rails, he is easy to cross the line.And once this boundary line is broken, it will surely kill one thousand enemies and self-injury eight hundred, hurt others, and hurt oneself even more.
This is what Zhen Xian is most worried about.
There is always a thin line between heroes and heroes, and wise rulers and tyrants are always in one body.
At this moment, Jia Fei is like a dragon stepping on the boundary between black and white, and inadvertently forgets that the weak and weak cannot withstand his random claws, one thought can become a real dragon, and one thought can also become a demon.
It's just that His Royal Highness King Jing himself, who was only twenty-six years old at the time, was completely unaware of all this.
Jiafei looked at the four general soldiers kneeling in front of him, and asked them, "Why don't you speak?"
None of the four chief soldiers wanted to be the rafter, they pushed back and forth, and finally delivered a roll of sheepskin letter to him.
The letter was tied to an arrow by a Tatar archer and shot at the top of the city. It was written in Mongolian and Han languages, asking His Royal Highness King Jing to go out of the city to discuss peace talks with Dayuan Khan himself, but he was not allowed to bring soldiers and horses. To show sincerity.
Batumengke did not send an envoy to send a peace letter to the holy dynasty, but issued a new letter of war.
No wonder the four chief soldiers were very nervous, and they couldn't help but say that they detained Su Gebaba first.
After reading the letter, Jia Fei was silent for a while, and then burst out laughing.
He originally thought that the little prince was a great little prince, posing and playing some word games, blaming Sanchao for kidnapping Suge Balabeji, and begging for more food, livestock, money, women, and even a princess of Sanchao.
He had already convinced himself that the overall situation was the priority and national affairs were the most important. He could let go of his selfish entanglements and negotiate peace with Batumengke, and even partially accept the conditions proposed by Batumengke.However, he didn't expect that Batu Mengke didn't want any of these things.
What Batu Mengke wanted was to fight him personally.
In this battle in Yingzhou, it was Batu Mengke who underestimated Shengchao and Jiafei, and this time, he really underestimated Batu Mengke.
The little prince has not conceded yet.
Since he has not conceded defeat, he will not retreat honestly, and will not be content to graze horses and sheep outside the pass and never invade again. The deterrence he hopes to deter the Tartars and appease the border will become empty talk.
If so, why should he.
99 steps have been taken, and he can't retreat at this last moment.
Jiafei's eyes gradually darkened.
"Prepare my horse. I need ten riders who dare to die. In addition, everyone sticks to the frontier according to the original arrangement, and is not allowed to attack without authorization."
He stood up, and while explaining this, he walked out.
The four chief soldiers were all taken aback when they heard the words.
Liu Rong was the first to jump up, and Xiaobu rushed to catch up, trying to stop him.
"My lord! You can't go! This is the way of the Tartars!"
However, Jiafei only glanced at him sideways.
With just one glance, Liu Rong was so frightened that he timidly withdrew his hand, froze on the spot and could no longer make a sound.
There was a murderous look in His Highness Prince Jing's eyes.Laughing, thick black like a ghostly murderous look.
Liu Rong turned his head with ashamed face, and looked at his colleagues who were also stunned in place, only to see that there were only two people still stunned behind him.Bai Haoren, who was so eager to crush his face to the ground, has disappeared, and he slipped away without knowing when.
Bai Zongbing has his own little plan in mind.
If His Highness Prince Jing really wants to kill him, the only one who can save his life is the military advisor.
But now if the military adviser is willing to save him, he may have to work hard.After all, when he threw people to the Tartars and ignored it, it's hard to say whether the military division held grudges against him or not.Unless he can give the military division some benefits first to coax the military division to calm down, the military division is still quite good.Bai Haoren felt so from the bottom of his heart.
So Jia Fei was going to meet Batu Mengke's battle, and Bai Zongbing immediately turned around and went to find Zhen Xian.
Chief Bai had this calculation in mind:
His Royal Highness Prince Jing is going to fight the little prince, and he must not be willing to let the military adviser know about it.But this is the aggressive method of the Tartars. If the military master knows it, he must stop the prince from going. If he doesn't stop him, he must find a way to rescue the prince.So he had to tell the military division about it quickly.Firstly, he wants to help the military division save the prince this time, even if the prince doesn't appreciate his kindness, the military division will always; ?
Bai Haoren felt that his idea was very righteous, so he trotted all the way to the outside of Zhen Xian's barracks. At first, he wanted to scare Jia Fei's guards and maidservants who were staying at the door, but they gave way to them.
And Zhen Xian was reading a book in the room.
After Jia Fei left, Zhen Xian couldn't really continue to laze on the bed, so he got up, tidied up his appearance, and sat down at the table.
The only thing at hand is the well-read "Chai Fei Xiaozha".
Zhen Xian casually flipped through the pages, unconsciously pressing and pressing the creases on the pages, unable to concentrate no matter what.
Just now he finally embraced His Highness frankly, and His Highness treated him extremely tenderly, completely different from the fear and pain that Batu Mengke had made him feel.
Such a comparison is inappropriate, Zhen Xian knew it, but he just couldn't control it.
He couldn't help but think of Batu Mengke at this moment.Not because the little Tartar prince is so unforgettable to the people, but because he knows that the battle is far from over.
He knew Batu Mengke, and he knew Jia Fei better.
With Batu Mengke's temperament, it is absolutely impossible to give in easily and retreat.Especially in the battle of Yingzhou, they won by luck and difficulty.
Zhen Xian secretly calculated in his mind that from the first confrontation in Zhuhubao, they had a total of five days of see-saw with the Tatars.During these five days, His Royal Highness continued to send troops to reinforce them step by step. They fought skillfully and created the illusion that there were enough soldiers and horses in the Holy Dynasty for this campaign. In addition, Wang Jia's personal conquest boosted morale, causing the frontier soldiers to sacrifice their lives. Forgetting death and fighting bloody battles, Batu Mengke retreated in fear.
But a false appearance is a false appearance after all.
His Highness can dispatch no more than [-] troops at this time, and among the [-] people, at least [-] are secretly borrowed from Juyongguan, so it is absolutely impossible to stay on the front line for a long time.
Once Batu Mengke calms down, realizes the mystery of this, and regroups the army to make a comeback, the situation may not be optimistic.
Furthermore, he knew that His Highness was on fire.
Although His Highness did not express any dissatisfaction in front of him, he could tell that His Highness was just restraining his emotions.
Compared with the anger that can be vented, the anger that is suppressed is more terrible. The more perfect it is hidden, the more unfathomable it is.
If Batu Mengke could make peace with him, His Highness might be able to suppress his anger and talk to him, but if the little prince came back to slap his paw again, it would be difficult to deal with this matter.
Zhen Xian was really worried, deeply afraid that Jia Fei would do something desperate to fight with each other.
There was a commotion outside the door before, and he vaguely heard the voice of the Seventh Prince, saying that Brother Su was suddenly imprisoned.
Logically, this kind of thing shouldn't happen, unless there is some accident that makes the four generals mess up as if they are facing a big enemy.
Zhen Xian was overwhelmed with thoughts, and really wanted to go to Jiafei to ask what happened, but the maids and guards at the door refused to let him go out, so he had to wait in the room anxiously flipping through his books.
After waiting for a long time, His Royal Highness Prince Jing did not come back, instead there was another commotion outside the door.
As soon as Bai Haoren's characteristic loud voice uttered the first yell, Zhen Xian understood that it was unfortunate that he guessed it, and Batu Mengke failed to make peace as he wished.
In this case, he must go to see His Highness immediately.He had to find a way to get out of this room.
Zhen Xian immediately opened the door and saw Bai Haoren who was still chatting with the guards.
Mr. Bai also saw Zhen Xian immediately, and was so excited that he raised his head and waved his hands repeatedly, shouting: "Military teacher!"
Zhen Xian told the guards in front of the door to ask Mr. Bai to come in and talk.
The guards looked puzzled, "Young Master Zhen, His Highness Prince Jing has told you not to disturb your rest."
Zhen Xiandao: "I can't rest when he yells outside with such a loud voice, and he attracts attention."
This is a truth.
The guards were helpless, so they let Bai Haoren into the house.
Mr. Bai didn't even have time to take a breath, he poured out all the little thoughts in his head like a cannonball, and finally grabbed Zhen Xian's sleeve, and mourned: "Military teacher, you must save me! !"
After Zhen Xian listened quietly, he pulled back his sleeves and frowned.
There are many times when Zhen Xian actually doesn't want to guess everything so thoroughly.Because if you guess it, you will be frightened.
The fact that Batu Mengke issued such a "war letter" was not the aggressive method that Bai Haoren and the others thought it was, but a test to see how much strength and courage His Royal Highness King Jing had.If His Highness refuses to fight, it will be showing cowardice. In this way, not only will Batu Mengke not retreat, but he will surely press down on the territory again and start a continuous war.
Therefore, His Highness's going to confront Batu Mengke was not all out of anger, but more because he could not let Batu Mengke see through the fact that the four towns of the holy dynasty were short of troops and could not withstand a long battle, so he had to go.
But just that, I'm afraid it's not enough.
Zhen Xian didn't think that Jia Fei might lose to Batu Mengke.But that little prince is really a wolf-like king of the prairie. Once he bites on his prey, he will never let go unless life and death are at stake.As long as Batu Mengke still has a trace of doubt in his heart, he will not be willing to retreat, and he will not be content with never going south to invade again.
If he wanted to help His Highness break through this dangerous situation, there was only one way he could do it, and that was to make Batu Mengk's backyard catch fire and be too busy to take care of himself.
He has been trapped in the grassland by Batu Mengke for four years, and he has already seen clearly the open and secret struggles around Batu Mengke.Prince Wala was not willing to surrender to this young and energetic little prince, but because Batu was forced to overcome his power, he wanted to preserve his strength first and wait for the opportunity, which was why he married a daughter.Batu Mengke and Wala are using each other, and there is not much trust at all.
Now that Batu Mengke personally led [-] elites to go south, his Yating in the grassland was empty. If he provoked Wala to raise the rebel flag at this time, it would be a good plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao, and Batu Mengke would have to go back to pacify the conflict with Zhao. The internal strife between Wala may not have the energy and courage to invade the south in the next few years, or even more than ten years.
Even so, it is somewhat against morality.Where there is war, there are bound to be casualties. In the end, those who are affected are all innocent people, either Tatars or Han Chinese.
However, if he indulges in benevolence and softness at this time and hesitates to make decisions, leading to a larger-scale war, it will not save the people of the two countries from disasters, but it may cause more and more tragic loss of life.
Zhen Xian was silent for a long time and couldn't help but sigh.
Bai Haoren saw that he was silent for a long time, and raised his palm in front of his eyes and shouted: "Military division?"
Zhen Xian turned around, frowned and looked at the distance outside the window, "President Bai please go and invite His Royal Highness the Seventh Highness Wang Jia and Tong Duwei to come. Zhen Xian must discuss important matters with them."
"Ah?" Bai Haoren blinked, his face full of confusion, "Military teacher, what else do you want to discuss? It's okay for those people at the door not to let you go out. Let's change our clothes. You pretend to be me, trick them and go out." .”
Bai Haoren spoke with ease.Zhen Xian's eyes almost turned black, and he couldn't help but support his forehead.
Zongbing Bai probably thought that the people left at the door by Prince Jing were all blind and foolish, and at such a close distance, he could really be fooled by changing clothes casually.
If he was really allowed to muddle through like this, it would be a dereliction of duty, and when the prince gets angry, no one can escape.These maidservants and guards knew how powerful they were, and they must stare at the door with wide-eyed eyes, not even a fly could escape.
The only one who can release him now is the Seventh Prince.
Fortunately, His Royal Highness King Jing only brought one of Tongqian's cronies to the north, and these people who stayed in front of the gate were all borrowed from Zongbing Li's residence in Yingzhou.These servants could not afford to offend His Royal Highness Prince Jing, nor could they offend the Seventh Prince, and there was no question of who they would pledge their allegiance to and who would stand on their side, they could only be ordered to seek a safe assignment.If the Seventh Prince came forward to take on this matter, His Highness Prince Jing could not and would not haggle with these few servants.
Such a simple truth, Bai Haoren, a wooden fish, can't understand it.
"Master Bai, stop asking, go and invite the Seventh Prince and Captain Tong over here!" Zhen Xian rubbed his forehead with a headache, and pushed Bai Haoren out of the room.
Bai Haoren was perplexed and forced out the door by him, so he had to follow Jiashou and Tongqian to invite him.
Jiashou was still squatting angry outside the room where Suge Baba was being held, kicking his legs and scratching his claws resolutely trying to break into the room, not paying attention to what Zongbing Bai said.Tong Qian, on the other hand, is active and vigilant, and he knows what's going on from the beginning of the chapter, so he hastily coaxes and abducts Jia Shou to see Zhen Xian.
When he entered the door, Zhen Xian had already written a letter without saying much, and handed it directly to Tong Qian, telling him to try to deliver it to Prince Wala within three days.
After the Battle of Yingzhou, Tong Qian was already convinced by Zhen Xian, he didn't ask any more questions after listening to the order, took the letter and went straight away, leaving Bai Haoren and Jiashou confused.
Most of Jiashou's heart was thinking about saving Brother Su Baba, and when he heard that his second brother had gone to see the little Tatar prince, although he was anxious, he didn't know what to do, so he kept chasing Zhen Xian and asking what to do.
Zhen Xian didn't bother to explain to him, but only told him to stay in Yingzhou, urged the four commanders to strictly follow King Jing's deployment, and said that as long as they did so, when Jiafei came back, Brother Su would be out of trouble naturally.
Jia Fei was overjoyed when he heard this, and nodded his head in agreement.
Zhen Xian then asked Bai Haoren where Batu Mengke had written to meet Jiafei.
Bai Haoren thought hard for a long while, faltered and said three or four place names, and finally determined that the place was called Tulangbao.
Zhen Xian heard that there was nothing else to say, and immediately went out.
"Military, military, why are you... why are you going?" Bai Haoren hurriedly followed.
"Go and pick up His Royal Highness Prince Jing." Zhen Xian looked cold and kept on taking a step.
However, Bai Haoren was still a little dazed, and followed a few hundred steps, and seeing that he was almost at the stable, he asked suspiciously: "...how many people are you taking?"
Zhen Xian took the reins of the horse with one hand, turned his head and looked helplessly at the reluctant Bai Zongbing.
"Myself."
Zhen Xian was hugged by Jia Fei, and vaguely heard someone shouting outside, his voice seemed to be anxious, and he reacted blankly for a long time before waking up.
It was already bright daylight, and the sun was three poles high.
How decent is it to be promiscuous in such a daytime...
What's more, it's still a border town where the war has just stopped.
Zhen Xian was suddenly embarrassed, and subconsciously got up to grab the messy and scattered clothes.
But Jia Fei hugged him back, and pressed him down for a long time to make intimacy again and again, until he pushed him so urgently that he reluctantly straightened up half of his body.
"You rest, don't worry about it." Jia Fei leaned over and kissed Zhen Xian's eyebrows lightly, and then got down to put on his clothes.
Zhen Xian lay on his side on the couch, seeing Jiafei in front of him with nimble hands and feet making himself fully dressed, remembering how the Second Highness didn't know how to dress or comb his hair when he left the servants, he couldn't help but chuckled.
He laughed suddenly.Jiafei didn't know, turned back to look at him, met his eyes, couldn't help itching and grabbed him for a long time, until the breath was almost exhausted, he reluctantly let go, and took care of him carefully. After covering the tent, I straightened my sleeves and went out.
As soon as he opened the door, he was bumped into the chest by the master outside the door who was jumping and jumping with a loud voice.
His Royal Highness King Jing frowned and blocked it with one hand, directly picked up the tender and slender neck from behind, picked him up like a kitten, and called out in a low voice: "Qilang."
Jiashou was still rambunctious at first, but he was grabbed by his elder brother unexpectedly. He was so frightened that his ears were stuck to his head, and he quickly shrank his neck and responded: "Second brother..." After a while, he couldn't help but look around , asked: "Where is Mr. Zhen?"
Where did Jia Fei have the patience to explain the situation to his younger brother, and ignored him at all, and asked coldly, "What's the matter with you? Why are you making such a fuss?" When there was not enough time, he was disturbed by this child who hadn't even grown his hair yet. He was very unhappy, and his tone was inevitably bad.
Although Jiashou was shallow-hearted, he could tell that the second brother was angry with him.The second brother usually doesn't like to go out with the royal relatives and relatives, although he is not cruel to these brothers and sisters, he is not friendly either, unlike the third and sixth brothers who often take him to play together.Except for the fourth brother, Jiashou had never heard of anyone who could get close to the second brother, but he had heard a lot of "bad things" about the second brother since he could remember.Jiashou was originally a little afraid of this second brother who was much older than him, but now that he was reprimanded, he flinched even more, and he hesitated for a long time before he could utter a complete sentence.
"They locked up Brother Su..."
Jia Fei's eyes moved slightly when he heard this.
The little Tatar princess who came from the north with Xiaoxian and Qilang is really a troublesome existence now.
It stands to reason that this girl is also considered to be kind to Xiaoxian and Qilang, so he shouldn't treat her poorly.However, the two countries have been at odds for many years, and the grievances are raging. If such a Tatar Begi suddenly came to the border town of the Holy Dynasty, how could the soldiers treat him calmly? What's more, Suge Baba has a special status after all.Batu Mengke was beaten back this time, and most likely he would send envoys to negotiate a peace. At that time, he would inevitably make a fuss about his younger sister.No matter how you say it, it's embarrassing.
Unless, you can keep her for your own use.
Jiafei couldn't help but look at his innocent young brother, and then glanced sideways at Tongqian who was guarding the door.
Tong Qian was also very guilty, afraid that the prince would think that he was not doing his job properly and would leave him so much trouble, but now that he was glanced at like this, he immediately broke out in cold sweat, and hurriedly coaxed Jiashou aside as if begging, "Seven Your Highness, please do me a favor, go back first, the prince has his own concerns about this matter, and the safekeeping will be properly arranged for you."
He was anxious in his heart, fearing that the little prince would make a fuss endlessly, but instead he forgot that he should not have said such things for His Highness Prince Jing, let alone made such a promise, and it was still in front of Wang Jia himself. .
Before the words finished, Jiafei cleared his throat carefully.
Tong Qian shuddered violently, his ears pricked up.
But Jiashou didn't realize it, and continued to babble non-stop, complaining that those frontier soldiers were rude and unfair to Brother Su.
Until Jiafei pressed his shoulder.
"Qiro, go back first."
He spoke in a low voice, unrepentant.
Jiashou was stunned for a moment, not understanding whether he was refusing or what he meant, so he couldn't help but frowned and shouted again: "Second brother!"
"Go back first." Jia Fei frowned and repeated, without further talking to his younger brother, he asked Tong Qian to send His Royal Highness Seventh back home.
Tong Qian received this order, thinking that the prince had no intention of punishing him for the time being, he was relieved, picked up the ribbon and left in a hurry.
Only Jiashou was still kicking and struggling in every possible way, but it didn't help.
Jiafei watched Tongqian take Jiashou away, and ordered the guards and maidservants in front of the door not to disturb Mr. Zhen's rest—let alone let Mr. Zhen go out of this door, so he went to the meeting hall alone.
Now the little Tatar princess is absolutely determined not to let go.
Of course it's not good to close it like this.If it is spread out, there will be no place for the majestic demeanor and face of the upper kingdom.
There are many rough people in the ranks, and it is understandable to ignore these reasons, but the four chief soldiers are all town officials, and it is a bit strange to act like this.
Unless something happened that made them suddenly lose their footing.And the one who has this amount of weight and is related to the little Tatar princess is probably Batu Mengke.
Jiafei thought all the way to the meeting hall, and sure enough, he saw Xue, Liu, Li, and Bai, the four generals, huddled together and muttering something, as if they were still arguing.
"What happened to the four adults?"
Jiafei was also polite, raised his foot across the threshold, and asked directly.
When he asked, the four people in the hall jumped up like cats with their tails burned. They all turned around and stared at His Highness Prince Jing who had already walked in front of him.
"My lord... my lord." Among the four, Xuanfu Liu Rong was the most tactful, and hurriedly took the lead and bowed in salute, but the dryness in his voice still betrayed the nervousness in his heart.
The other two chief soldiers also hurriedly saluted with fists in their hands, but Bai Haoren was the only one who stood there staring blankly with his mouth wide open.
Chief Bai was really terrified.
This battle was fought extremely arduously, with ups and downs, ups and downs, and countless times. Bai Haoren had the thought of "the game is over, there is no way out, and the brothers will die here for the country today". It was Zhen Xian who the chief soldier was afraid of.
Among the soldiers of the four towns, Bai Haoren is not the only one who has heard of the "Xiaolang from the Zhen family, Tanhua in the Golden Palace", but Bai Haoren is the only one who knows that Zhen Xian has arrived in Shuozhou seven years ago, and he served as his military advisor for three years .
Not only that, he also asked the Tartars to take the military division away.
Now that everything is connected together, Bai Haoren suddenly understands the meaning of every sentence that Jia Fei said when he was pulled from the bed in the middle of the night.
His Highness Prince Jing is here for the military division.
It is true to save His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, and it is true to frighten the Tartars and appease the border, but His Royal Highness Prince Jing must have Zhen Xian in his heart.
Especially since the military adviser just came back, he slept in the same room with His Highness Prince Jing.Not only did I sleep, but I also slept for a whole night, plus a whole morning.
Who is His Highness Prince Jing?As a prince and prince, he went north alone to guard the gate of the country. I heard that since the king came here, he has been diligent every day. Veterans should feel ashamed.
But just this morning, the prince closed the door and didn't come out.
As for what the prince is doing in the house, it goes without saying, anyway, the military adviser is also in the room, and it is estimated that he has not been able to come out until now.
Raising troops to fight against a country for one person, this kind of thing that I had only heard in the play suddenly appeared before my eyes, and I seemed to have committed a huge taboo unconsciously.Bai Haoren's heart was already filled with tears.
Others only said that His Highness Prince Jing fought a big victory that was almost impossible to win, and they didn't dare to doubt it any more, they were all in admiration.Only Zongbing Bai was so frightened that he was about to lose his courage, and his mind was full of thinking that the prince might kill him at any time.After all, he abducted Mr. Zhen from the prince, not only abducted, but also lost...Even if he really didn't know anything back then, just did those stupid things to him, this prince wanted to kill him , There are too many reasons to kill him.
Bai Haoren's face was green with sweat, and he stared at Jiafei for a long time, until he was hit hard by Liu Rong several times before he came back to his senses.
This time he regained his composure, but simply lost his footing, and fell to his knees at Jiafei's feet with a "plop".
The atmosphere is suddenly subtle.
Jiafei looked down at Bai Haoren, who was on the ground, and smiled slightly, "If Zongbing Bai has any opinions on Xiao Wang, it's okay to speak up, why bother to bully Xiao Wang like this."
When Bai Haoren heard this, he became more and more flustered, like a chicken being strangled by the neck, and said anxiously: I'm afraid that it will be too late for you to have an opinion on me, so how dare you have an opinion on you... He was terrified, and his mind had already been through for a while. The pot was muddy, and without even thinking about it, I yelled out first: "My lord, I have a humble job... I deserve death for my humble job! My lord is lenient! My lord forgives my sins!"
He was referring to Zhen Xian's matter.
But the other three chief soldiers did not know.
The fact that they lost the Seventh Prince to the Tartars unknowingly made them quite guilty, and even though they have guarded the border for many years, it is not a loss of power and humiliation to the country. It was the first battle, but they also knew that this battle was actually won by His Royal Highness Prince Jing, who was on the battlefield for the first time. Why didn't they feel ashamed?In addition, a big event happened early this morning, and this big event—His Royal Highness King Jing happened to get up late today. The four of them hesitated in this meeting hall, for fear of disturbing the rare "interest" of the prince. I didn't dare to report... Negligence of duty is the first, incompetence is the last, just when I was full of anxiety and trembling, I ran into such an incident of "covering the state affairs and delaying the military plane", and several general soldiers were beating small drums in their hearts, How could he bear the shock of Bai Haoren kneeling down suddenly...
Especially Liu Rong.
Liu Zongbing was just admonished by Jia Fei for training soldiers with Sun Wu a few days ago. He was worried at first, but now he was provoked by Bai Haoren, and he thought that Lao Bai was planning to dump him. The brothers expressed their sincerity first and asked for leniency, so they hurriedly followed along. He knelt down and shouted "guilty".
In the blink of an eye, two of the chief soldiers of the four towns had already knelt down, and the other two couldn't stand up immediately, and they also knelt down together as if their knees were limp, and they all followed "deserving death".
Although I didn't really feel how damned I was, but since everyone knelt down, it was always right to kneel first.
This scene is somewhat comical.
Looking at the four frontier officials kneeling on the ground in a daze, Jia Fei couldn't help but laugh.
Jia Fei is actually clear.None of the four commanders was wrong, they just fell into his schemes.Even Bai Haoren really couldn't complain.
It's not that he doesn't mind at all that Bai Haoren threw Xiaoxian to the Tatars back then.But His Royal Highness Prince Jing was as clear as a mirror, and if he really wanted to pursue the responsibility, the first one who should be hacked into pieces would be himself.What right does he have to mind a mere Bai Haoren who knows no crime?
He asked the four unlucky ones to get up and talk first.
However, among these four people, you look at me and I look at you, and none of them is willing to start first.
Why are the commanders-in-chief of the four towns ordered by the father more brain-dead than the other?It's no wonder that after years of hard fighting at the border, the little Tatar prince made him dizzy.
Jia Fei was so angry that he was about to laugh, but instead became vicious, and felt like playing tricks, he simply leaned on the upper seat and asked them: "Then tell me, what is your crime?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Haoren immediately buried his head lower.
From the time Xue, Liu and Li knelt down with him, Bai Haoren knew that he was in trouble again.But he can't expose the matter in public, right?How embarrassing are the three colleagues who have already jumped into the pit?What's more, His Highness Prince Jing couldn't let him talk about those things back then... The matter has come to this point, the only option is to pretend to be dead.Chief Bai gritted his teeth, and almost pressed his face to the floor.
The other three waited for a long time, and saw that the leader kneeling down had completely put on a stance of beating him to death and not speaking. They each yelled at Lao Bai, the dishonest person, a hundred or eighty times in their hearts, so they had no choice but to push and shove. Let the most intelligent Liu Rong speak out.
Liu Rong almost fainted from crying on the spot.In the past, he only heard that His Majesty's second son, His Highness Prince Jing, was a "powerful" character. He never thought, how could this prince be so ungrateful for others?Anyway, the four of them are also the chief generals guarding the border. They have knelt down in unison and shouted that they are guilty and begged the lord for mercy. Can the lord let them be graciously?He even asked them "what's the crime?"... Could he still say in public, "We see that you and Mr. Zhen are reunited after a long absence, so we don't have the nerve to knock on the door"?Even if he dared to say it, could the prince really want to hear it?
Poor, clever and cunning as Zongbing Liu, he racked his brains for a long time before hesitating to say this sentence: "I...we...failed to protect His Highness the Seventh Prince, and made His Highness suffer and frightened..."
"Oh." Jia Fei raised his eyebrows on purpose, and waved his hands with a suppressed smile, "Didn't the seventh brother come back in good condition, so let's not mention this matter."
That said... as if they were fussing over a molehill and knelt on the floor for nothing...
Liu Rong's heart was as bitter as if he had been soaked in Coptis chinensis. He knew that the prince was forcing him into the tiger's mouth, but he had no choice but to cry and say: "My lord...it's not that we sincerely concealed important events, it's just that... It's not that seeing the prince has worked hard for many days, it's rare for him to take a day off—"
Jiafei finally waited for him to utter these words, and finally laughed out loud. After laughing, his expression stopped, and he asked in a deep voice: "It was Batu Mengke who sent an envoy to submit a letter. What tricky thing did the little prince mention?" The terms of the peace talks scare you like this?"
Jiafei deliberately investigated and considered Batu's aggressiveness, otherwise how dare he go north to make such a big deal.
The little prince is arrogant and arrogant by nature, even if he loses the battle, he will never be willing to just run away with his tail between his legs in such a mess, he must try to get back some face.Furthermore, although this man is vicious and contemptuous towards the Han people, he is very affectionate towards his own people. It is precisely because of this that Batu Mengke was able to control the grassland with all the people in his youth.
No matter as the lord or as the elder brother, Batu Mengke would never leave his younger sister alone.
Batu Mengke will definitely not take advantage of him in the matter of truce, and Jiafei has already prepared for this.
The only thing I didn't expect was the reaction of the four chief soldiers.
They are all soldiers who have guarded the frontier battlefield for many years. Although they are restricted by the strength of the troops and the situation, they have been bullied by the little prince for many years, but they have been gritting their teeth and sticking to it. Opponents who have been in constant confrontation over the years should also understand, so why mess themselves up?
At that time, Jiafei didn't feel that at least half of these four miserable faces were frightened by himself.
He has experienced ups and downs since he was a child, and he has experienced ups and downs in big winds, waves, and dead ends. Many things in this world can no longer enter his eyes and his heart, so he has many more than ordinary talents. Shocked and calm.
But there are also downsides.
Just as ordinary people often don't understand him, he often ignores the pain and fear in people's hearts.Joy, anger, sorrow, joy, what people want, to His Highness Prince Jing, are more like stacks of chips stacked in front of him, and they are calculations that can be weighed.
However, when the calculation gradually goes off the rails, he is easy to cross the line.And once this boundary line is broken, it will surely kill one thousand enemies and self-injury eight hundred, hurt others, and hurt oneself even more.
This is what Zhen Xian is most worried about.
There is always a thin line between heroes and heroes, and wise rulers and tyrants are always in one body.
At this moment, Jia Fei is like a dragon stepping on the boundary between black and white, and inadvertently forgets that the weak and weak cannot withstand his random claws, one thought can become a real dragon, and one thought can also become a demon.
It's just that His Royal Highness King Jing himself, who was only twenty-six years old at the time, was completely unaware of all this.
Jiafei looked at the four general soldiers kneeling in front of him, and asked them, "Why don't you speak?"
None of the four chief soldiers wanted to be the rafter, they pushed back and forth, and finally delivered a roll of sheepskin letter to him.
The letter was tied to an arrow by a Tatar archer and shot at the top of the city. It was written in Mongolian and Han languages, asking His Royal Highness King Jing to go out of the city to discuss peace talks with Dayuan Khan himself, but he was not allowed to bring soldiers and horses. To show sincerity.
Batumengke did not send an envoy to send a peace letter to the holy dynasty, but issued a new letter of war.
No wonder the four chief soldiers were very nervous, and they couldn't help but say that they detained Su Gebaba first.
After reading the letter, Jia Fei was silent for a while, and then burst out laughing.
He originally thought that the little prince was a great little prince, posing and playing some word games, blaming Sanchao for kidnapping Suge Balabeji, and begging for more food, livestock, money, women, and even a princess of Sanchao.
He had already convinced himself that the overall situation was the priority and national affairs were the most important. He could let go of his selfish entanglements and negotiate peace with Batumengke, and even partially accept the conditions proposed by Batumengke.However, he didn't expect that Batu Mengke didn't want any of these things.
What Batu Mengke wanted was to fight him personally.
In this battle in Yingzhou, it was Batu Mengke who underestimated Shengchao and Jiafei, and this time, he really underestimated Batu Mengke.
The little prince has not conceded yet.
Since he has not conceded defeat, he will not retreat honestly, and will not be content to graze horses and sheep outside the pass and never invade again. The deterrence he hopes to deter the Tartars and appease the border will become empty talk.
If so, why should he.
99 steps have been taken, and he can't retreat at this last moment.
Jiafei's eyes gradually darkened.
"Prepare my horse. I need ten riders who dare to die. In addition, everyone sticks to the frontier according to the original arrangement, and is not allowed to attack without authorization."
He stood up, and while explaining this, he walked out.
The four chief soldiers were all taken aback when they heard the words.
Liu Rong was the first to jump up, and Xiaobu rushed to catch up, trying to stop him.
"My lord! You can't go! This is the way of the Tartars!"
However, Jiafei only glanced at him sideways.
With just one glance, Liu Rong was so frightened that he timidly withdrew his hand, froze on the spot and could no longer make a sound.
There was a murderous look in His Highness Prince Jing's eyes.Laughing, thick black like a ghostly murderous look.
Liu Rong turned his head with ashamed face, and looked at his colleagues who were also stunned in place, only to see that there were only two people still stunned behind him.Bai Haoren, who was so eager to crush his face to the ground, has disappeared, and he slipped away without knowing when.
Bai Zongbing has his own little plan in mind.
If His Highness Prince Jing really wants to kill him, the only one who can save his life is the military advisor.
But now if the military adviser is willing to save him, he may have to work hard.After all, when he threw people to the Tartars and ignored it, it's hard to say whether the military division held grudges against him or not.Unless he can give the military division some benefits first to coax the military division to calm down, the military division is still quite good.Bai Haoren felt so from the bottom of his heart.
So Jia Fei was going to meet Batu Mengke's battle, and Bai Zongbing immediately turned around and went to find Zhen Xian.
Chief Bai had this calculation in mind:
His Royal Highness Prince Jing is going to fight the little prince, and he must not be willing to let the military adviser know about it.But this is the aggressive method of the Tartars. If the military master knows it, he must stop the prince from going. If he doesn't stop him, he must find a way to rescue the prince.So he had to tell the military division about it quickly.Firstly, he wants to help the military division save the prince this time, even if the prince doesn't appreciate his kindness, the military division will always; ?
Bai Haoren felt that his idea was very righteous, so he trotted all the way to the outside of Zhen Xian's barracks. At first, he wanted to scare Jia Fei's guards and maidservants who were staying at the door, but they gave way to them.
And Zhen Xian was reading a book in the room.
After Jia Fei left, Zhen Xian couldn't really continue to laze on the bed, so he got up, tidied up his appearance, and sat down at the table.
The only thing at hand is the well-read "Chai Fei Xiaozha".
Zhen Xian casually flipped through the pages, unconsciously pressing and pressing the creases on the pages, unable to concentrate no matter what.
Just now he finally embraced His Highness frankly, and His Highness treated him extremely tenderly, completely different from the fear and pain that Batu Mengke had made him feel.
Such a comparison is inappropriate, Zhen Xian knew it, but he just couldn't control it.
He couldn't help but think of Batu Mengke at this moment.Not because the little Tartar prince is so unforgettable to the people, but because he knows that the battle is far from over.
He knew Batu Mengke, and he knew Jia Fei better.
With Batu Mengke's temperament, it is absolutely impossible to give in easily and retreat.Especially in the battle of Yingzhou, they won by luck and difficulty.
Zhen Xian secretly calculated in his mind that from the first confrontation in Zhuhubao, they had a total of five days of see-saw with the Tatars.During these five days, His Royal Highness continued to send troops to reinforce them step by step. They fought skillfully and created the illusion that there were enough soldiers and horses in the Holy Dynasty for this campaign. In addition, Wang Jia's personal conquest boosted morale, causing the frontier soldiers to sacrifice their lives. Forgetting death and fighting bloody battles, Batu Mengke retreated in fear.
But a false appearance is a false appearance after all.
His Highness can dispatch no more than [-] troops at this time, and among the [-] people, at least [-] are secretly borrowed from Juyongguan, so it is absolutely impossible to stay on the front line for a long time.
Once Batu Mengke calms down, realizes the mystery of this, and regroups the army to make a comeback, the situation may not be optimistic.
Furthermore, he knew that His Highness was on fire.
Although His Highness did not express any dissatisfaction in front of him, he could tell that His Highness was just restraining his emotions.
Compared with the anger that can be vented, the anger that is suppressed is more terrible. The more perfect it is hidden, the more unfathomable it is.
If Batu Mengke could make peace with him, His Highness might be able to suppress his anger and talk to him, but if the little prince came back to slap his paw again, it would be difficult to deal with this matter.
Zhen Xian was really worried, deeply afraid that Jia Fei would do something desperate to fight with each other.
There was a commotion outside the door before, and he vaguely heard the voice of the Seventh Prince, saying that Brother Su was suddenly imprisoned.
Logically, this kind of thing shouldn't happen, unless there is some accident that makes the four generals mess up as if they are facing a big enemy.
Zhen Xian was overwhelmed with thoughts, and really wanted to go to Jiafei to ask what happened, but the maids and guards at the door refused to let him go out, so he had to wait in the room anxiously flipping through his books.
After waiting for a long time, His Royal Highness Prince Jing did not come back, instead there was another commotion outside the door.
As soon as Bai Haoren's characteristic loud voice uttered the first yell, Zhen Xian understood that it was unfortunate that he guessed it, and Batu Mengke failed to make peace as he wished.
In this case, he must go to see His Highness immediately.He had to find a way to get out of this room.
Zhen Xian immediately opened the door and saw Bai Haoren who was still chatting with the guards.
Mr. Bai also saw Zhen Xian immediately, and was so excited that he raised his head and waved his hands repeatedly, shouting: "Military teacher!"
Zhen Xian told the guards in front of the door to ask Mr. Bai to come in and talk.
The guards looked puzzled, "Young Master Zhen, His Highness Prince Jing has told you not to disturb your rest."
Zhen Xiandao: "I can't rest when he yells outside with such a loud voice, and he attracts attention."
This is a truth.
The guards were helpless, so they let Bai Haoren into the house.
Mr. Bai didn't even have time to take a breath, he poured out all the little thoughts in his head like a cannonball, and finally grabbed Zhen Xian's sleeve, and mourned: "Military teacher, you must save me! !"
After Zhen Xian listened quietly, he pulled back his sleeves and frowned.
There are many times when Zhen Xian actually doesn't want to guess everything so thoroughly.Because if you guess it, you will be frightened.
The fact that Batu Mengke issued such a "war letter" was not the aggressive method that Bai Haoren and the others thought it was, but a test to see how much strength and courage His Royal Highness King Jing had.If His Highness refuses to fight, it will be showing cowardice. In this way, not only will Batu Mengke not retreat, but he will surely press down on the territory again and start a continuous war.
Therefore, His Highness's going to confront Batu Mengke was not all out of anger, but more because he could not let Batu Mengke see through the fact that the four towns of the holy dynasty were short of troops and could not withstand a long battle, so he had to go.
But just that, I'm afraid it's not enough.
Zhen Xian didn't think that Jia Fei might lose to Batu Mengke.But that little prince is really a wolf-like king of the prairie. Once he bites on his prey, he will never let go unless life and death are at stake.As long as Batu Mengke still has a trace of doubt in his heart, he will not be willing to retreat, and he will not be content with never going south to invade again.
If he wanted to help His Highness break through this dangerous situation, there was only one way he could do it, and that was to make Batu Mengk's backyard catch fire and be too busy to take care of himself.
He has been trapped in the grassland by Batu Mengke for four years, and he has already seen clearly the open and secret struggles around Batu Mengke.Prince Wala was not willing to surrender to this young and energetic little prince, but because Batu was forced to overcome his power, he wanted to preserve his strength first and wait for the opportunity, which was why he married a daughter.Batu Mengke and Wala are using each other, and there is not much trust at all.
Now that Batu Mengke personally led [-] elites to go south, his Yating in the grassland was empty. If he provoked Wala to raise the rebel flag at this time, it would be a good plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao, and Batu Mengke would have to go back to pacify the conflict with Zhao. The internal strife between Wala may not have the energy and courage to invade the south in the next few years, or even more than ten years.
Even so, it is somewhat against morality.Where there is war, there are bound to be casualties. In the end, those who are affected are all innocent people, either Tatars or Han Chinese.
However, if he indulges in benevolence and softness at this time and hesitates to make decisions, leading to a larger-scale war, it will not save the people of the two countries from disasters, but it may cause more and more tragic loss of life.
Zhen Xian was silent for a long time and couldn't help but sigh.
Bai Haoren saw that he was silent for a long time, and raised his palm in front of his eyes and shouted: "Military division?"
Zhen Xian turned around, frowned and looked at the distance outside the window, "President Bai please go and invite His Royal Highness the Seventh Highness Wang Jia and Tong Duwei to come. Zhen Xian must discuss important matters with them."
"Ah?" Bai Haoren blinked, his face full of confusion, "Military teacher, what else do you want to discuss? It's okay for those people at the door not to let you go out. Let's change our clothes. You pretend to be me, trick them and go out." .”
Bai Haoren spoke with ease.Zhen Xian's eyes almost turned black, and he couldn't help but support his forehead.
Zongbing Bai probably thought that the people left at the door by Prince Jing were all blind and foolish, and at such a close distance, he could really be fooled by changing clothes casually.
If he was really allowed to muddle through like this, it would be a dereliction of duty, and when the prince gets angry, no one can escape.These maidservants and guards knew how powerful they were, and they must stare at the door with wide-eyed eyes, not even a fly could escape.
The only one who can release him now is the Seventh Prince.
Fortunately, His Royal Highness King Jing only brought one of Tongqian's cronies to the north, and these people who stayed in front of the gate were all borrowed from Zongbing Li's residence in Yingzhou.These servants could not afford to offend His Royal Highness Prince Jing, nor could they offend the Seventh Prince, and there was no question of who they would pledge their allegiance to and who would stand on their side, they could only be ordered to seek a safe assignment.If the Seventh Prince came forward to take on this matter, His Highness Prince Jing could not and would not haggle with these few servants.
Such a simple truth, Bai Haoren, a wooden fish, can't understand it.
"Master Bai, stop asking, go and invite the Seventh Prince and Captain Tong over here!" Zhen Xian rubbed his forehead with a headache, and pushed Bai Haoren out of the room.
Bai Haoren was perplexed and forced out the door by him, so he had to follow Jiashou and Tongqian to invite him.
Jiashou was still squatting angry outside the room where Suge Baba was being held, kicking his legs and scratching his claws resolutely trying to break into the room, not paying attention to what Zongbing Bai said.Tong Qian, on the other hand, is active and vigilant, and he knows what's going on from the beginning of the chapter, so he hastily coaxes and abducts Jia Shou to see Zhen Xian.
When he entered the door, Zhen Xian had already written a letter without saying much, and handed it directly to Tong Qian, telling him to try to deliver it to Prince Wala within three days.
After the Battle of Yingzhou, Tong Qian was already convinced by Zhen Xian, he didn't ask any more questions after listening to the order, took the letter and went straight away, leaving Bai Haoren and Jiashou confused.
Most of Jiashou's heart was thinking about saving Brother Su Baba, and when he heard that his second brother had gone to see the little Tatar prince, although he was anxious, he didn't know what to do, so he kept chasing Zhen Xian and asking what to do.
Zhen Xian didn't bother to explain to him, but only told him to stay in Yingzhou, urged the four commanders to strictly follow King Jing's deployment, and said that as long as they did so, when Jiafei came back, Brother Su would be out of trouble naturally.
Jia Fei was overjoyed when he heard this, and nodded his head in agreement.
Zhen Xian then asked Bai Haoren where Batu Mengke had written to meet Jiafei.
Bai Haoren thought hard for a long while, faltered and said three or four place names, and finally determined that the place was called Tulangbao.
Zhen Xian heard that there was nothing else to say, and immediately went out.
"Military, military, why are you... why are you going?" Bai Haoren hurriedly followed.
"Go and pick up His Royal Highness Prince Jing." Zhen Xian looked cold and kept on taking a step.
However, Bai Haoren was still a little dazed, and followed a few hundred steps, and seeing that he was almost at the stable, he asked suspiciously: "...how many people are you taking?"
Zhen Xian took the reins of the horse with one hand, turned his head and looked helplessly at the reluctant Bai Zongbing.
"Myself."
