A few months ago, Yan Siguan had been able to get a verbal agreement from Bai Fuji, saying that if he wanted to find out what happened in Huayan Mountain, he would allow Yan Siguan to take a leave of absence for two months to take a look. The two benefactors who have been hanging at the gate of Yan Temple all year round are very happy to talk to each other, but when there is nothing going on at Huayaan Mountain, they always keep Yan Temple Pass in the army for various reasons. , and even two of them, it was obviously nothing serious, and they were transferred back to Shidouchuan camp under several orders, but only for drinking and eating meat.
Even though Yan Siguan has been around for many years and is not familiar with human nature, he still knows that General Bai, who has considerable influence in Qi Ling, is definitely not one of those people who is dishonest in his words, let alone when he was in the army. Not for a short time, I have already known that this person's temperament and temperament are never in vain, or there is no real word in his mouth, there is always a master who buys people's hearts with false feelings, but this time, no matter how hard Yan Siguan racked his brains, When mentioning this matter, Bai Qingji seemed to have no memory of it at all. Just like what he said before, it was just drunken chatter and could not be considered true.
We have a close friendship with Yan Siguan. They belong to the Paoze brothers who are in the Shishan Camp at the foot of Huayan Mountain. Among them are smart people who can smell the slightest movement on weekdays. But they really feel for this man who is very skilled. He is not afraid of death in war and often takes the lead and shows compassion to the soldiers. The loyal people of the army are happy. In fact, it is not just these smart and smart people. Even the soldiers usually have very little eyesight. The honest and loyal people can also see some clues and taste some tastes. , since Bai Negiji attaches great importance to Yansi Pass, he must be given an important task and a high position. After all, it is related to Qiling soldiers and horses.
If this matter is all in vain, I am afraid that no one in the Qiling world can make a decision except the emperor.
What's more, in recent years, Zhang Weilu, who has taken over the leadership of the Zhang family in Qiling, which has been very popular recently, is not an ordinary person. Even the Prime Minister of Qi, who has not stepped aside to make way for others, has been very fond of the military attachés in the court for two or three years. There were concessions, and the civil servants were not willing to take the initiative to break this matter. They all tacitly agreed and only made superficial remarks. In fact, the civil and military exchanges were like spring, which was quite good.
At this time of year, the weight of your words and deeds together with the written documents is of course even heavier.
But Yan Siguan didn't want to believe it. Even though he had heard many rumors and rumors, he still felt that he was not qualified for a high position. After all, he had seen the Zhennan general's tactics in using troops, especially the artillery formation. Although it attracted People are fascinated by it, but the more they think about it, the more they realize that their little ability is really different from being in vain. As a result, they don't have much enthusiasm.
Fortunately, recently, Bai Fuji seems to have rarely bothered with things in Huayan Mountain. Instead, he has been busy inviting the generals who guard the borders to go to the Shidou River to drink or discuss martial arts. After all, he is a little lost in military affairs. Although others know this, they should not dissuade them. First of all, the difference in official ranks is too big. If the interest of the leader of the military attachés of Qiling is inadvertently swept away, I am afraid that even if there is no great hardship to be endured, it will be difficult to do so. The opportunity to rise to prominence is due to the fact that alcohol is often banned in the Qiling army, especially among the Zhennan frontier army. However, since your banquet is in vain, you should go to the banquet, and don't say that anyone dares to
When this matter is brought to the court and held accountable, it must not be that one's suffering is in vain, but that these ordinary generals, who have worked so hard to climb to such a high level, have suffered the most.
It was another day of drunkenness, but after leaving the banquet, Yansiguan sat on the cliff of the Shidouchuan River, with his feet dangling in the air, sitting on the edge of the cliff where the wild grass was lush and abundant. I don't know if he was taking a break, or if he had the same intention. Fu Ji mentioned returning to his hometown again, but he still didn't leave.
"Young man's boxing and kicking skills are becoming more and more superb. Before the banquet, I exchanged punches and kicks with Beitang Feng. He spared no effort and used all his moves. Look at the envious expressions of the surrounding generals. I'm afraid that in my Zhennan Army In the future, the reputation of Yan Siguan will spread more and more widely. Maybe you will take away the title of number one in fists and kicks in less than two years, which will make me look good."
Bai Fuji took the cup and staggered to sit next to Yan Siguan, the two of them were side by side. However, he glanced at the man in surprise and raised his eyebrows, "Why, I remember you were very powerful at first. How?" But now you don’t show respect to me, after all, I don’t drink alcohol at all. I offended Commander Yan earlier, and you still want me to bow down and apologize?”
"How dare you do this in your humble position." Yan Siguan knew that the person next to him was sincerely teasing him, and he kept silent about his return home. There was probably a reason for this. Since he was reluctant to tell the reason for it in vain, since he was in In the army, the commander must take the lead, so he was reluctant to mention this matter. Therefore, although he was anxious, he did not say it clearly. Instead, he threw a stone outside Shidou River and turned to look at Bai Fu. His face, white and red after drinking, said, "There are some things that are naturally beyond the scope of my humble position to say, but when I saw the general finally
Drunk every day, drinking and feasting every day, it is inevitable to think of something, so I don't know how to explain it, so as to appear humble, to advance and retreat in a moderate way, and to persuade with clever words, so I linger here and wait, but I can't find the answer for a long time. "
It's still the same as before, but Yan Siguan's dull, slightly dark face makes Bai Jiji find it very funny, but no matter how Bai Jiji laughs, he always laughs. Yan Siguan never showed a trace of smile, nor did he look angry or sullen. He only waited until General Bai on the side stopped laughing, and then slowly said what he said.
I think that when the barrier outside Huayan Mountain was not yet stable, Yansiguan first joined the army. With the help of several seniors of similar age, Paoze, he only knew a little about how to make a living. Of course, Yansiguan had already jumped over the dragon's gate. A practitioner of Hualong, but when he first joined the army, he didn't have the slightest ability to save his life. He only knew how to sweep away the front of the formation with his fists. Fortunately, he was just dealing with the bandits, so there was nothing wrong and no harm was done. It is very heavy, but when the stone camp of Huayan Mountain has not yet been built, the Yizhang guards in the pass of the Tenth Camp of Huayan Mountain can kill all the intruders of Qiling with almost no effort. , and Yizhang's soldiers and horses are very good at roaming and fighting, and there are often old soldiers stationed at the passes here, which makes it increasingly difficult to deal with them.
But it was precisely because of these fellow villagers Paoze that Yan Siguan was able to master swordsmanship and horses in a very short period of time. He knew how to avoid sharp edges, knew when to advance and retreat, and learned how to fight openly and secretly on the battlefield. , the ability to find life, but these seniors all died one after another in the ten camps.
Here, even if Yan Siguan had the ability to throw the sky, it was still difficult to save him. Zeng Shengsheng watched several Paoze being buried in the rain of horseshoes and arrows, and he was lucky enough to get two corpses back, but they were already beyond recognition.
At that time, Bai Negiji relied on many soldiers to hold back Yizhang's soldiers and horses who were digging in the Tenth Battalion, and made it clear that he wanted to compete with them for the Tenth Battalion's chiseling pass. However, doing so openly meant that the lives of the soldiers and horses were almost in vain. But the earth had to empty out that stone mountain, so that we could stand for a long time in the future, and be able to use this place to settle down, and always firmly lock the entire ten-camp chiseled pass. I don’t know how many lives were consumed, and every life will be tightly endured. The Huayuan Mountain controlled by Yizhang has a sharp hanging sword on its head for no reason.
"The general's arrangement is very good to resolve the long-standing knot of Qiling. The entire south road of Qiling is impregnable, not to mention insurmountable for a while. I'm afraid that the changes in Yanshan Mountain in the future are due to the general's calculations. Those who want to come to my position are "Senior Pao Ze, if you have knowledge under the spring, you must suddenly feel at ease. Even if you go to the hell of Yama, you will still walk shoulder to shoulder with your head held high."
"But General, don't forget that the affairs of the world have not yet reached a final conclusion. Drinking and having fun should have nothing to do with the army, right?"
This time it was Bai Ji who was stunned for a moment. He looked at the wine bottle in his hand, and then glanced at Yan Siguan's dull and dull face. Until now, he couldn't see any emotion or anger. He actually showed a bitter smile. After taking the last sip of wine, the flask drifted away into the mountains. From the time he stepped into this court to the present day, it can be said that it has been smooth sailing for Bai Jiji. He has not only a small backing, but also a lot of knowledge. Whether he is marching in formation or fighting in the court with those old foxes who rely on writing and ink to do things, he has always been close to him.
Almost all of them have been through the ranks. At such a young age, reaching such a high position is considered unrivalled and has a strong prestige. Everyone in the Qiling world does not know who does not know, but it seems that for many years, no one has dared to meet him. Say so.
And the person who said these words was Yan Siguan, who was highly regarded.
"Yi Zhang has been shocked recently. I think this news will spread to the world soon. The powerful emperor who has always been in the hearts of the Three Kingdoms of the West and Nanli has finally spent his life until the fuel is exhausted, but how can he not be exposed? The majestic giant wall will probably spread to the whole world soon, so it doesn’t hurt to tell you. What I did on Huayuan Mountain was just to temporarily suppress the moat of Yizhang, which is blessed by the sky, and to stabilize the court. The middle man is even considered the emperor, but with this ability, he can defeat Yi Zhang alone, which is a bit too flattering, so at this time, he must not be overly intimidated."
"The nine countries in the world are all going back and forth on the increasingly slender thread of the covenant. But if this thread is broken, you might as well imagine that Emperor Yi Zhang ascends to the heavenly level, and he is still the eldest prince with unabashed ambition. Now that he has been dormant for a long time, Zang Feng's skills have improved to a higher level. With the current national strength of Qi Ling, how can he win, and how can he catch the fists handed over by Yizhang with all his strength? And this pair of fists can neither strike from a distance across a hundred thousand mountains. Qi will definitely not attack the strong with the weak and seek trouble from Zihao, but will only head south to Qi Ling."
"But for today's words, I still have to thank you, kid."
Bai Negiji put away his rare expression of emotion, stood up, and suddenly kicked Yan Siguan's back with a playful smile. The latter's thick skin and fleshy body, both internally and externally, were almost beaten by Bai Negiji.
He staggered from the shock, cursed, and told Yan Siguan to roll down the mountain. He would just go on his way to visit his relatives soon.
