Royal Road

Chapter 80: Cold and warm

"What are you talking about? Instability in the palace?!" Sima Yue asked sharply, with an ashen expression.

"According to Sikong, yesterday, Zhang Fang's rebellious soldiers were in chaos outside Jianchun Gate, intending to break into the imperial city, looting Taicang, and provoke the Su Wei army to mutiny. Robbed the King of Changsha..."

Listening to the report from his confidant, Sima Yue was frightened and angry. Since Zhang Fangjun entered the city ten days ago, he has rampantly raped and looted, venting his resentment for months of incapable of attacking the city. I don't know how many wives in Luoyang City have scattered, their families have been destroyed and their families have died. The original shortage of water and food has not been alleviated at all. Instead, it has been harassed by the insurgents and turned into a **** on earth. In the past two days, the impeachment memorials in the DPRK can almost pile up the table, and all officials are hoping that the Ministry of Books will restrain Zhang Fang. But Sima Yue has no one available, so what can he do? I had to appease the people, saying that Chang'an was in great chaos, and Zhang Fangjun would withdraw troops soon to rescue the King of Hejian, waiting for the King of Chengdu to enter Luo, and he could eliminate the military disaster.

This was also the stumbling block that Sima Yue gave Sima Ying. Unexpectedly, before the opponent left Yecheng, Zhang Fang could not bear it and began to attack the imperial city. How can the generals in this palace endure? Originally, the Kaicheng incident was that he and his brother colluded with General Zuowei in secret. There were many dissatisfaction among the Sixth Army, and Sima Yi's old ministry was full of complaints. As a result, it was absolutely irrepressible!

"Brother, I'm afraid Changsha can't stay!" Sima Teng shouted aside.

"Shut up!" Sima Yue shouted in a low voice, upset. How can he not think about this kind of thing? But if Sima Yi was killed by his own hands, the soldiers in the city would never believe him anymore, so how could they encourage them to rebel?

"Be sure to keep going, let's suffer the chaos. Brother, now we are like a fire and water, if Changsha is rescued by those people, neither side can explain it!" Sima Teng said anxiously.

How could Sima Yue not know? Not to mention the hidden dangers left by letting the tiger return to the mountain, even Sima Ying couldn't explain it. If there is a trouble, he definitely won't get any benefit! This is simply an enemy, and it is difficult to make a decision.

"Sikong." A Huang Menlang next to him suddenly took a step forward and whispered, "Since Zhang Fang has attacked the imperial city, it is better to inform him of this matter. I think that General Zhang will not miss the opportunity..."

Hearing that Sima Yue couldn't help but his eyes brightened, and he muttered: "But Jinyong City is easy to defend and hard to attack. Just knowing the news, it may not be possible..."

Jinyong City is an important military town through and through, built by Emperor Wu. It is composed of three small cities connecting north and south. The city is three feet high and ten feet wide, with the back of Beimang, overlooking the whole city of Luoyang. The city is heavily guarded by soldiers, and it has always been a secluded palace where the Sima clan family members were imprisoned. Such a fortified city, where a hundred thousand troops are helpless, can a mere gang of rebels conquer it?

The Huang Menlang smiled: "There should be people in the palace who are willing to open the city for General Zhang."

"Good!" After hesitating, Sima Yue ordered, "You lead people to do it quickly. If things are done, there will be a great reward!"

After that, he turned his head and said to Sima Teng: "Yuanmai, you have been away from Binzhou for a long time, so it's better to take this opportunity to return. When the time is right, you will send troops to Baijing and cut off the back road of Yecheng. In the future battle, you are The essential!"

Sima Teng is only in his early twenties, and it was just when he was striving to win. Hearing this, he immediately got up and said: "Brother, don't worry! As long as Brother gives an order, he will be able to act as an emissary of one hundred thousand soldiers and horses. Emperor Wu. One line is already unusable. If you want to help Chaogang, you must take action!"

He heard this very well, Sima Yue said with a smile on his palm: "Yuan Mai said it is very true. As long as the person who caused the chaos dies, why not worry about the world..."

It is snowing outside the window, and the heavy snow has been on and off for two days. If it is a quiet night, everything will be silent, when you can hear the snow falling and rustling. Warming a pot of light wine, holding a stove, sitting in front of the window and watching the snowy night, was once Jiang Da's favorite. But today, wrapped in winter clothes, he sat withered by the window, quietly listening to the sound of killing from the distant street.

This is the Shaofu Medical Office, located inside the imperial city, outside the palace walls, and 30,000-ten guards stationed at the gate. Unless the country is broken, it is impossible to hear the sound of swordsmen.

But that voice has been ringing all night. All night.

From sunset to the quiet of night, it seemed that countless soldiers and horses poured into the inner city. The sound of horseshoes, knives and soldiers, and screams are endless. Those colleagues who were looking forward to opening the city day by day became silent. Even the gate of Shaofu was closed tightly.

Can this door stop the insurgents?

Jiang Da didn't know.

A few days ago, he had thought about asking Dongying Gong, hoping that he would protect Jinyang for the sake of stopping the epidemic. However, when he arrived at the palace, he knew that Duke Dongying had left Luoyang while the city gate was wide open. There are countless other princes, princes and relatives, and every household has taken private soldiers to protect their families from the dead city.

They can walk naturally. No matter how rampant the group of rebellious soldiers is, they are the men of the King of Hejian. The King of Hejian would not offend those wealthy elites, as long as one eye is closed, the children of the noble family can escape from the flames. But what about the rest? Li Shu in Luoyang City, where are the hundred officials? Could it be that their fate is not fate? !

Unfortunately, the king of Changsha was defeated. Lost in the hands of the generals in the palace, defeated by those despicable villains. If he is still there, will he be able to hold on to the city so that the Imperial Capital will be exempt from such slaughter?

Dryly opening his eyes, Jiang Da listened to the killing shout outside the window until it was dawn.

On the second day, the fighting stopped. On the third day, a message spread to everyone's ears like wings.

Zhang Fang led his troops to break through Jinyong City, and the king of Changsha was burned to death by this thief!

When he heard the news, Jiang Da only felt that his heart was cold. What is the difference between Sima Ying coming or not? However, the next day, he knew the difference. After Zhi Zhi killed the King of Changsha, Zhang Fang led his troops to the palace again to forcibly capture the women in the palace. A terrible hissing sound came from outside the wall every day.

How many people have they taken abducted? No one dares to think! How will these palace ladies be treated? It is even more unthinkable.

After three days of trouble, the chaos gradually subsided. In the young mansion, no one dared to open the door. Jiang Da didn't know what it looked like outside. But even if there were no culprits, he could hardly survive. Lack of food, lack of water, and the lingering wind and cold almost drained his life. It only takes a few more days, and there is no need for rioters to do it.

Just when Jiang Da was numb and desperate, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Doctor Jiang! Fortunately, you are still in the Young Mansion!" The soldier in the lead handed a water bag and whispered, "I am a soldier of the Liang Mansion, I am here to pick you up and come back to the mansion by the order of the lord!"

"!" Jiang Da struggled and got up, "You are... I remember you... Zixi, Zixi, he..."

Before he finished speaking, tears were already falling. Who could have expected that in such a desperate situation, it would be that person who would send someone to help.

The soldier also reddened his eyes: "You healed my leg injury during the battle in Liang Mansion. Doctor Jiang, don't cry, drink some water quickly. Let's leave now! By the way, the host also said, Dr. Jiang can leave a letter saying that his grandfather has passed away and he will resign and return to his hometown. This way he won't be blamed by the court..."

"What?! Grandfather, did he go?!" Jiang Da overturned the water sac in his hand and grabbed the man's arm. "When did it happen!"

"October incident." The soldier hesitated, "But the doctor Jiang left a medical book, and the landlord ordered it to be printed."

Jiang Da didn't understand what the publication was. But at this moment, all the anger and all the misery have turned into a deep hatred. If there is no Sima Teng, if there is no Sima Ying, if there is no Sima ethnicity who draws on the power of this shot, how could he and his grandfather end up like this? !

Pushing the soldier away, he got up and walked to the book case, quickly wrote a resignation form, and turned his head and said, "How do you leave?"

Seeing Jiang Da finally lifted his spirits, the soldier couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief: "There are still people outside the wall. As long as they leave the imperial city, they can leave Luoyang!"

Jiang Da nodded, turned around and took a few volumes of medical books from the bookshelf, put the medicine box on his back, and said, "Let's go."

The night was deep, and an inconspicuous team climbed over the high wall, over the city gate, and left the fragmented city of the emperor.

"There is news from Wang Zhongzheng that Sima Teng has returned to Jinyang!" Liang Feng dropped the letter in his hand and sighed. It seems that the Luoyang incident has no effect on Sima Teng, and may even have some benefits. Otherwise, this kid wouldn't go back to Bingzhou so carelessly.

But this is also good. Without this obtrusive thing, no one would worry about Jiang Da's escape. When he waited for someone to get home, he went to the house and said he would treat himself, and no one could make a mistake.

After thinking about it, Liang Feng turned his head and asked, "How are the people who are sent to Luoyang this time? Are they reliable?"

Yi Yan said: "They are all masters in siege and camp, and there are a few who have received the favor of Doctor Jiang. The leader is Zhang He, and you can't go wrong."

Liang Feng has always been interested in training special forces, so the most elite of the Yongrui battalion has indeed practiced something that later generations of special forces will teach, and the ordinary walls of several feet high can't stop it at all. Zhang He was an exceptionally promoted candidate battalion commander from the battalion. He had a good understanding of tactics and was agile. Liang Feng had seen him personally and was quite satisfied with him.

With a slight nod, Liang Feng said, "Remember to inform Wu Ling that people are finally rescued from the city. Nothing can be lost on the pass."

"Subordinates understand." Yi Yan replied.

"By the way, you have to pick some smart soldiers from the camp as soon as possible, and learn some first aid knowledge with Dr. Jiang. These people have to be placed in every combat unit, so call a nurse. When on the battlefield, they It can save a lot of lives." Liang Feng said very solemnly.

If the soldiers who were seriously injured in the last battle were treated on the battlefield, the death rate would drop by a few points. It's a pity that there are no qualified hygienists in the team. Jiang Da will be able to focus on cultivating talents in this area this time when he returns.

Yi Yan had already understood the role of the nurses in the ward. If there were such a group of people on the battlefield, they would naturally come in handy.

"Also, the officers selected this time will have to learn arithmetic and basic writing in the future. At least they must be able to understand the instructions and calculate the amount of food needed in the team. If they don't have this basic knowledge, I'm afraid it will be. To delay things." Liang Feng thought for a while and said again.

"Master, they are all rash guys. Learning these will probably delay their efforts." Yi Yan frowned.

"Did you postpone your effort when you learn this?" Liang Feng smiled and shook his head. "If you are not motivated, you don't deserve to be a good general. You have to incorporate these into the officer promotion system. There is a raging soldier and a raging nest. , I don’t want to see the good soldiers that I have worked so hard to be ruined by fools."

In the past six months, Yi Yan did not stop studying for a day, and now he can read the letters. The master's understanding of the military books read further. Of course he understands the importance of learning. But it is always unrealistic to require every officer to be able to do this.

But this is the lord's order, he can go down and ask, what if anyone wants to learn it? Anyway, it would not be the lord who taught them.

Just about to nod his head, Yi Yan suddenly stiffened, and his eyes were like knives, and shot at the woman who walked into the room. After several wars, Yi Yan’s eyes were filled with awe-inspiring suffocation, but the woman, as if she hadn’t seen it, walked to the book case with a stern face: "Lang Jun, all the craftsmen and helpers in each workshop have registered. There are also prizes and gifts that several craftsmen received last year, and I will also write them down one by one."

Liang Feng took the booklet, flipped through it at random, and nodded: "It's well done. You have to think carefully about the procedures of Sifang. Now that there are many people in the palace, the rules must be changed accordingly, and it is absolutely impossible to show up. Mistakes."

"The servant girl knows." The woman nodded slightly, her face still expressionless. She is not bad in appearance and tall, but she is unsmiling and unpretentious in her dress. She looks like a log, a bit dazzling.

However, Liang Feng was quite satisfied with this new secretary. This time, Chao Yu chose two people from the ward, one tall and expressionless, the other petite and thin with scars on his face. One of them was cold and the other was bored, but the numbers and calligraphy were quite good. The taller one is extremely rigorous in logical thinking, and he has a good set of personnel management. The shorter ones are erudite and memorized, whether it is numbers or Liang Feng's instructions, they can never forget them. What's more rare is that the two had no intention of retrieving the past, so Liang Feng gave them names, one named Canglan and the other named Caiwei, and they stayed in the study.

However, this change caused a lot of shock to those close to him. Lu Zhu didn't say anything, Yi Yan seemed to have a deep heart, and he never showed these two good faces. Fortunately, the two women both crawled out of hell, and changed their weak points. I was afraid that Yiyan's eyes could scare people away.

Two more instructions, Liang Feng let Cang Lan go down, and turned to look at Yi Yan who had just retracted his gaze: "Why, you don't seem to like these two newcomers very much."

Yi Yan was silent for a moment before saying: "They are unidentified, they don't deserve to stay with the lord!"

"Yesterday, for example, I died yesterday. They are all poor people, and they have their own reasons." Liang Feng sighed, "Yi Yan, help me go outside."

After hesitating for a moment, Yi Yan came forward and helped the man up. Compared to half a year ago, he has more flesh on his arms, and he is no longer so light and fluttering. It seems that a gust of wind can blow away, but he is still thin and pale. When he gets closer, he can still smell it. Medicinal incense.

Now that he can walk around freely, Liang Feng will not put all his weight on this human-shaped crutch. Slowly walking out of the room, he walked towards his favorite courtyard. Unlike other courtyards, where various flowers and trees are planted, there are rockery pavilions and winding paths. There is only one tall watchtower in the courtyard, which is simple and simple, but it makes people feel particularly open.

Stepping up the steps step by step, Liang Feng took a breath and stood in front of the wooden fence on the third floor. After a few days of snow before, Tanaka covered it with a thick layer. This winter snow can keep the soil moisture, kill potential pests in the soil, and protect the winter wheat that has emerged from the cold wind. A real sign of good years.

With the snow, the farmers began to nest in the winter, but Zhuangzi did not calm down. From a distance, there are still rows of people shaking in the barracks. After the annual vacation is over, the trilogy begins to drill again. The original auxiliary soldiers must be turned into regular soldiers, and the newly recruited refugees must also receive auxiliary soldiers training. Even if the weather is cold, I can't stop. Those missing troops need more time to fill.

Looking at the diligent people in the distance. Liang Feng suddenly asked, "Yi Yan, what are you worried about these days?"

The wound on his hand had already scabbed, but Yi Yan still often lost his soul lately, obviously there was something in the bottom of his heart. It is impossible for Liang Feng to just sit and watch his most important subordinates in distress, of course he has to ask.

Like a wild deer shot by a light, Yi Yan's figure froze immediately. He didn't expect that the Lord Guild would ask it so directly, and he couldn't think of how to respond by himself.

After a while, he whispered: "The lord needs talents, and there will be more useful people in Liang Mansion in the future. The subordinates don't know if I can stand beside the lord."

This is true. Whether it was sending troops to rescue Jiang Da, or choosing children to learn to count, or the two strange women in the study. The lord has never just needed a trilogy, but more useful people. And he is just one of these people.

He was afraid that those eyes could see his fault, but he was also equally afraid. The man's gaze no longer fell on him as it did in the past. This is simply a difficult problem that cannot be selected, making Yi Yan sleepless.

Liang Feng raised his eyebrows in surprise. He didn't expect this little guy to worry about this. A smile appeared on his lips, Liang Feng shook his head slightly: "You are different from them."

Yi Yan's throat trembled: "If there is a general like his subordinate..."

"You are different from anyone else." Liang Feng interrupted his words, "Yi Yan, you were taught by me personally. No one can take your place."

This is the truth from Liang Feng. He came into this world as an outrageous accident. When he almost gave up the will to survive, he met the man in front of him. Yi Yan is different from those close to him. He is a sacrificial person, he doesn't understand what ordinary people should understand, nor does he know the original owner of this body. In front of this completely unfamiliar boy who admires himself like a baby bird, he can occasionally indulge and reveal something that belongs to his true self.

Whether it's training trilogy or teaching the art of war, in fact, these are the remnants of my last life, memories that I can't let go of. Without Yi Yan, he might have to keep these things in his heart, hoping to find a credible person before forgetting the light. Or slowly adapt to the world and choose to blend into those celebrities who pretend to be.

Fortunately, he met this person ahead of time.

It's like putting wings on a lingering, unskilled person. Will anyone give up this rare opportunity to spy on the blue sky?

Of course Yi Yan is important to him.

The steady hands trembled with those two hard bows capable of pulling three stones. Yi Yan has heard praise from the lord, countless praises. However, there has never been a time when he was so moved!

It seemed that something had blossomed in the bottom of my heart, with sourness, pain, uncontrollable joy, and indescribable fear. Yi Yan gritted his teeth and squeezed out his voice: "The lord wants me, and I will stay with the lord forever."

The hands that held him were all shaking. Liang Feng didn't point it out, but just smiled.

"A word is a deal."
