Rebirth of a Star General - Chapter 261
Chapter 261 Finale (1)
It is approaching Qingming, and it has been raining for days. The rain in the capital washed the ground and underground cleanly, and there was lush vitality everywhere.
It has been more than a month since Wei Wei sent troops to leave Beijing.
Near Jiuchuan, there is an endless desert.
“Da He,” the young lieutenant walked into the tent, and said to the female officer who was sitting on the ground drawing a picture: “The reduction of military stoves in the camp you ordered has been explained.”
He Yan smiled and said, “Thank you very much.”
The lieutenant looked at the woman in front of him with emotion in his heart. When the Fuyue Army, who had followed General Feihong, learned that the leader was a young woman, there was a lot of reluctance in his heart. No wonder they are picky. After following General Feihong of Wei Hong, looking at other generals, they can’t help but have a heart of comparison. As a woman, He Yan dared to go to the battlefield, which is certainly admirable. But in fact, she has never led a battle alone, and she doesn’t know the depth of her skill. Even though Rundu and Jiyang had been victorious before, there was also the capital of the right army at that time.
Today, she is alone.
Fighting is different from simple martial arts. Emperor Zhaokang did this, perhaps because it was for the sake of the captain of the Youjun. However, within the Fuyue Army, they were not really convinced.
In the past month, they have only arrived near Jiuchuan not long ago. Jiuchuan was originally a city in the desert, now it has been occupied by the Utuo people. When He Yan arrived in Jiuchuan, he was not in a hurry to launch an attack, but camped near Jiuchuan. For several days, the soldiers had complained.
But the lieutenant knew that this was not what people saw.
He had been in the Fuyue Army before, and although he could not have close contact with the former Feihong General, he also knew that the Feihong General was daring to trespass. The woman in front of her, for the time being, did not show her bravery, but she was more sensible and calm.
The location of the camp was chosen just right. In this position, you can attack and retreat. What’s happening at the vent again, it is convenient to adjust and retreat. The lieutenant was a little strange. He had inquired that He Yan was also in Jiuchuan for the first time, but he seemed to be very familiar with the terrain and had a lot of experience in how to survive in the desert.
Of course he had no way of knowing that He Yan was the “General Feihong” in the past, and General Feihong first followed the Fu Yue army to deal with the Xiqiang people in Mo County. Moxian County is not far from Jiuchuan, and the terrain is also similar.
“My lord,” the deputy looked at the scroll in front of He Yan, “Are you drawing a map?”
“These Utopians are very powerful and have been planning for a long time. Although the Fuyue Army has been training day by day, they have not been on the battlefield for several years. In addition, the Huayuan War was damaged badly and the troops were not as strong as the opponents. I cannot attack rashly. Soldiers’ lives are ignored. Before that, they knew oneself and the enemy, and a hundred battles would never end.”
Every day, she asked the Stone Kings to explore the road far outside the city of Jiuchuan. You don’t have to go too close, you can feel the terrain around here, and then go out and walk in the depths. In a few days, Finally draw a complete map. With this picture, the Fuyue Army, which is not as large as the Utuo, can exert its greatest strength.
It’s just… He Yan sighed in her heart. She had known that the Utuo people would have been well-equipped for many years of recuperation, but it was not until they really arrived in Jiuchuan that they discovered that the Utuo’s soldiers and horses were stronger than she had imagined. If only Jiuchuan is like this, but if the other three places are also like this, the battle of Dawei is really not easy to fight.
For so many years, Emperor Wenxuan emphasized literature over military affairs, and Wei’s soldiers stagnated, but he taught the Utuo people a chance. It seems that before Huayuan, Rundu, or even Jiyang, they were just a cover. The Utopians showed no real strength, and the purpose was to let them relax their vigilance.
Also, if not, how could these four cities fall so fast?
“Adults rush to make maps, but also pay attention to your body.” The lieutenant thought for a while, and finally reminded: “The adults have slept very little in the past few days…”
“It’s okay, I know it in my heart.” He Yan continued without raising his head.
Seeing her doing this, the lieutenant couldn’t say anything, and bowed back.
After he left, another person called out: “He Da people.”
He Yan: “Come in.”
Jiang Jiao and Shitou came in.
They are also called He Yan “Daren He” just like other soldiers outside. After all, He Yan is not a general now, but in private, he still loves to call He Yan “Brother He.”
The two of them are careful and steady in their work. In today’s Fuyue Army, the elites of the past were ruined by He Rufei, and there are not many people available. He Yan gave some important things to Shitou.
She raised her head, looked at the two approaching people, and asked, “How can I detect the Utuo?”
Jiang Jiao replied: “There was a group of Uto people who went out to explore the city at night, but they did not approach our camp. They only checked around and left. We did not chase after Brother He said. But these two days , There is no more movement.” He asked: “Brother He, do you have to wait any longer?”
“Wait.” He Yan said solemnly: “We don’t take the initiative to attack the city, let them chase us.”
“Lure the enemy?” Jiang Jiao was startled, “but if they really attack us, wouldn’t we be in a weak position? After all, the Utopians now have more soldiers than ours.”
“Don’t worry,” He Yan smiled, “Those Utuo people are cunning and suspicious, and will never let all the soldiers and horses go out of the city, otherwise we won’t be camped here for many days and be safe. They sent spies out to explore at night. Depending on the situation, it is nothing more than trying to get to our bottom.”
He Yan stood up and walked to the wooden tray in the tent. There were many small hills stacked with sand in the wooden tray. The small hills were marked with rice grains. She picked up the branches on the side and showed them to them: ” Besides, where we are stationed, we will pass through the gorge road when we retreat. The Utuo people are afraid that we will have an ambush on the back road, so of course they dare not act rashly.”
“I have fought with the Utuo people in Jiyang and Rundu before. If the people of Maka and Huyat pass back to the Utuo country, the Utuo leader of Jiuchuan should have heard my name. But he He can’t be sure whether I will lead the army, he despises me in his heart, but because of Rundu and Jiyang, he doesn’t dare to despise me. Guess what he will do?”
“What are you doing?” Jiang Jiao was puzzled.
“He will find a way to prove that I can’t do it. After finding the evidence, he will despise me with justification and evidence.” He Yan smiled, “Although I don’t quite understand why General Utuo is always like this, since they want to see an empty space. The name is a woman who doesn’t actually lead soldiers, so I will show them what they want to see.”
“So,” the silent Stone’s eyes lit up, “Those army stoves…”
“We have been camped here for a few days, but we have been slow to act. Utopians will suspect that we are cheating, so they will send soldiers out at night to check out. If I were a Utopian, I would definitely think about the reduction in military stoves every day. , It must be because the enemy leader is a woman, and the soldiers underneath are not convinced, and are afraid of the Wutuo Xiong soldiers in Jiuchuan. Many soldiers became deserters. This gave birth to the heart of underestimating the enemy.”
“When they relax their vigilance and lead troops to go deeper, they can set up an ambush.”
Jiang Jiao was agitated at first, then he thought of something, and he hesitated to say: “Brother He, don’t you say that the Utuo is cunning and suspicious, and will never let all the soldiers and horses go out of the city…”
“Yes,” He Yan looked at him, “So the soldiers and horses they sent should be only part of it, and only this part of what we want to annihilate. If they really dare to attack with the whole army, we are actually at a disadvantage.”
“Haven’t you thought about killing them all at once?” The stone was a little puzzled.
He Yan patted him on the shoulder: “You have never been on a real battlefield. You don’t know that a real war can’t be ended overnight. In the matter of soldiers and horses, the Utuo can win over us. Don’t take yourself. I didn’t intend to confront them head-on, lure them to go deep and wipe out a part of the enemy army, which is enough to damage the morale of these utopians. After that, I will continue to try again.”
“If you want to win a war, you must be patient and calm before you can go to the end.” He Yan smiled slightly, “This is just the beginning.”
Jiang Jiao and Shishi looked at the woman in armor in front of them. When they were in Liangzhou in the past, they knew that she was skilled and smart, but now she is standing here, leading a party of soldiers and horses. When the net was spread out, people slowly and truly understood her abilities.
“Brother He,” Jiang Jiao said jokingly: “You only have one more battle in Jiyang than us, how come you seem to be very familiar.”
“That’s different.” The corner of the woman’s mouth raised slightly, “As for me, I am born to fight.”
The wind blows outside, blowing in the desert, yellow sand flying around, and the flags are rolling, and it becomes more and more depressed.
The stone murmured, “Jijun is not far from here, I wonder what happened to General Yan?”
“Jijun…” He Yan’s eyes became heavy.
I heard that the plague there has spread.
…
In the fields outside the city, beside the river, piles of corpses were piled up.
A group of soldiers were digging a pit. The pit was dug deep. Xuxu looked inside and found that the corpses wrapped in white cloth had bursts of rotting peculiar smell. At first glance, it looks like hell on earth.
There are sheds randomly built with thatch, the floor is covered with coarse cloth, and dozens of people lie on their backs. These people are dying, showing signs of festering on their bodies. The young man is boiling medicine on the side, stirring the giant tank from time to time with a big iron spoon. Herbs.
His body is not very strong. It is already very difficult to stir the medicinal materials in this giant tank. After a short while, sweat has already leaked from his forehead, but from start to finish, he does not mean to be lazy. His snow-white robe has long been messed with mud and blood. He has always held the hand of a folding fan. These days, he is holding either a silver needle for healing or a medicine bowl for life-saving.
The plague in Ji County was worse than expected.
After occupying Jijun, the Utuo massacred civilians and looted women in the city. A large number of dead bodies were randomly thrown by the river, and it was spring again, and the plague soon broke out. The Utuo directly drove out all the big Wei people who were still alive in the city, leaving them to fend for themselves. When Lin Shuanghe and Yanhe came to Jijun, there were mountains of corpses everywhere in the fields outside the city.
Lin Shuanghe considers himself a doctor and is used to life and death. However, when he first arrived here, he couldn’t help being shocked by the tragedy here.
Yan He’s soldiers and horses are to be used to deal with the Utuo. There are not many military doctors here. He is Lin Qingtan’s grandson. Everyone has persuaded him that he does not have to personally contact these patients. If he is infected with the plague… but Lin Shuanghe He didn’t listen to these kind opinions. If he was afraid of death, he would not choose to come here at the beginning.
The dead civilians are not easy to bury on the spot. They can only be burned, turned into bones, and buried in a deep pit. This is already the best way. Even so, the crying and screaming of the family members who are still alive can still be heard every day.
He scooped the boiled medicinal soup into a broken bowl, and left the bowl to dry. After it was slightly cooler, he picked it up and sent it to the hayloft to feed the patient.
He was originally a very particular young man, always a little vanity, even in the city of Shuojing treating female patients, he would smile more brilliantly when he saw cute and gorgeous clothes. But now, the patients here are smelly and dirty, but he doesn’t dislike it.
The patient who was helped by Lin Shuanghe was a woman, who should be very young, but her appearance was mediocre and even a little too plump. Lin Shuanghe took a spoonful of medicinal soup and brought it to her lips. She drank it carefully, looking at the gentle and beautiful young man in front of him, blushing slightly, as if even the pain on her body had alleviated a little.
“Doctor Lin, I’ll just do it myself.” She whispered.
“That won’t work,” Lin Shuanghe said sternly: “How can I let a beautiful girl drink the medicine by herself? I am also a gentleman who loves and cherishes jade.”
The patients in the straw shed laughed kindly when they heard the words.
This Doctor Lin, with good looks and good temperament, is different from the general who always has a stern face and a vicious look. He smiles every time. I was also in the mood to joke with everyone, talking about everything, obviously everyone may not be able to see tomorrow’s morning. It is obviously such a stressful and sad moment, but his attitude has never changed, so with him, the atmosphere is relaxed. Many, seem to be no different from the past, it seems that when you wake up, Jijun is still the same Jijun before, and everything can be easily solved.
After all the medicine in the straw shed was fed to the patients to drink, Lin Shuanghe asked them to take a good rest before picking up all the bowls.
He rinsed the bowl of medicine he had just drunk with boiling hot water, then stopped, rubbed his shoulders, and finally had a chance to examine himself. However, looking at the smudges on his body, after a while, he simply gave up.
It was because the white robe he brought over was all cut into cloth towels for the wounds of the patient. Now, this is the last piece of clothing, and there is no other white robe that can be replaced.
Lin Shuanghe walked to the other side.
The soldiers and horses brought by Yanhe have fought against the Utuo several times, winning and losing. The terrain outside Jijun city is complicated, and the Utuo inside the city is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Fortunately, Yan He himself was not affected by the incident. Seeing that he was in good spirits, his morale was also high. Moreover, the plague has been slightly controlled now, and the panic has not continued to spread. Although this battle is not easy to fight for a while, things are always going in a good direction a little bit.
In a surprise attack last night, Wei Wei won a small victory. Many new wounded were added, and some soldiers were killed. The soldiers who died in the battle were buried on the spot, and Lin Shuanghe asked other military doctors to treat the wounded soldiers first, and he himself took over the most dangerous plague patients.
At this moment, I saw some lightly wounded soldiers sitting by the river in front of the tent and talking, Yan Hezheng sitting on the ground without any image, pouring water into his mouth.
Lin Shuanghe dragged his tired pace and walked over, spreading his hands in front of Yan He.
Inexplicably, Yanhe waved his hand away with a palm: “What are you doing?”
“General Yan,” Lin Shuanghe licked his lips, “I have been busy treating patients until now, and you haven’t even given me a bowl of wild vegetable soup. I’m starving to death, so you can eat some food anyway.”
Yan Hebai glanced at him, took out a dry cake from his arms and threw it into his hand, “Eat, eat, you can’t choke you.”
If it was the usual, Lin Shuanghe would definitely rob him, but today he was really weak and hungry, so he sat down and took a big bite.
The dry biscuits are astringent, and the throat is very sharp when swallowed, and the taste is really not delicious. Lin Shuanghe was really choked. Yan He glanced at him disgustingly, and handed him the water bottle in his hand, “You are a starving ghost reborn. Is it?”
Lin Shuanghe quickly took a big gulp from the kettle, swallowed the dry cakes in his mouth, and said, “Big brother, I haven’t eaten all day today. Being a prisoner is more than that. Not only does you have no sympathy, but you also curse. Me, are you human?”
Yanhe looked at the embarrassed appearance of the opposite person, and subconsciously wanted to be mean. When he saw his stained clothes, he swallowed the ridicule.
No matter, to be honest, Lin Shuanghe’s trip was really beyond his expectation. Originally, Yan He thought that although Lin Shuanghe had been to Liangzhou Guardian before, Liangzhou Guardian did not fight any wars, so he lived in the guard station and did not suffer from human suffering. When it comes to Ji County, this pampered son will definitely cry for the world. Unexpectedly, from the beginning to the present, Lin Shuanghe didn’t say a word.
Although he did not drew his swords and blood with the Utopians at the forefront, it was not an easy task to take care of the wounded soldiers and appease the civilians who were frightened by the plague.
And it’s dangerous.
Yan He snorted without answering.
Lin Shuanghe took a few more bites of dry cakes, drank some water, and filled his stomach with food and drink, not so uncomfortable, and refreshed. He looked at Yanhe and said: “Yan Nanguang, I have suffered a lot here. When I return to Shuojing, you must truthfully tell the emperor what I have done here. You also reward me for being a half official. As a professional, when I grew up like this, when did I experience this kind of bitterness. What kind of pancake, I used to not eat my dog.”
This person started talking nonsense when he came alive. Yanhe sneered, “No one here is forcing you to eat. Besides, I haven’t seen you suffer any more, when is it, and I am still in the mood to laugh and joke with the woman, Lin Shuanghe, you go here. The habit of twisting flowers and grass everywhere is really unchangeable.”
“Don’t say you are upright,” Lin Shuanghe scolded him, “You have a wife and children, and I’m still lonely. How do I know which girl is my destiny? Naturally, I have to try. You hang yourself up early. Are you sick when you die on a tree and watch others pick flowers and sniff the grass?”
Hearing this, Yan He was about to refute, and a soldier passing by said in surprise: “General Yan, do you have a child?”
Yan He glared at Lin Shuanghe, and Lin Shuanghe coughed slightly. The fact that Xia Chengxiu was pregnant has not yet been publicized. Just being heard right now, there is absolutely no reason to deny it. Yanhe said, “I haven’t been born yet, but in my wife’s womb.”
The soldier seemed to be in his thirties, his face was dark, and he had a simple appearance. Hearing this, he sat down and scratched his head: “The feeling is good. When the general returns from the battle, he will be able to see the child. It’s the same as I did back then.”
“You?” Yan He asked: “Do you have children?”
“Nonsense,” Lin Shuanghe couldn’t help but said, “Do you think you can be your father in the whole world?”
The man scratched his head and smiled: “Yes, there are two. The elder is three years old, and the younger is just full moon. I went back this time and wanted to spend a few more days with my daughter-in-law, but I didn’t expect the Utuo to come… The daughter-in-law said that when she returned from the war and got the payment, she gave the younger son a silver collar to wear. And my eldest daughter, when I left, I cried and cried, and my heart was broken when I cried. NS……”
Yanhe has never been an approachable person, because he was born noble and has a proud temperament. Even when he gets along with his subordinates, he always brings a bit of arrogance. Today, because this man is the same “father” as him, it is much rarer. Said a few words.
He asked, “Does your daughter have a deep relationship with you? You live in a barracks here, and don’t go home much, right? How can she still be close to you?”
Lin Shuanghe is puzzled: “Are you seeking previous experience for the troubles you may encounter in the future?”
Yanhe scolded him: “Shut up.” He looked at the man in front of him eagerly, “Say it quickly.”
“This…I don’t know wow.” The man was a little dazed, “I do go home few, but every time I go home, I remember to bring her favorite maltose, buy her beautiful cloth, and let my daughter-in-law give her Make new clothes. General Yan don’t have to worry about it. People say that girls and daughters all kiss their fathers. If the general’s wife is a daughter, the young lady must be very close to General Yan.”
Yan He was exasperated by what he said, and then he became solemn again, “What if it’s a son?”
“Isn’t that better?” The man said: “The general will take the young master by his side, and go into battle with the father and the son. There is no need to separate.”
Yanhe had an enlightenment and looked at the person in front of him: “I didn’t expect you to be a daddy, and you still have two clever ways to do it.”
Lin Shuanghe listened speechlessly.
The man got the compliment from his boss, laughed for a while, and then fell silent again. After a while, he sighed: “My little girl, I kept holding my leg when I left. I know that she is afraid I died on the battlefield. If,” he looked into the sky in the distance, “I can go back alive, and I will definitely buy her her favorite sugar cake.”
Yan He was stunned for a while, and after a while, he followed and looked into the distance.
The sky was dyed with red clouds by the setting sun, the setting sun was like blood, and the field was gentle and silent.
“Don’t worry,” he said, “she will definitely be able to eat the sugar cake you bought.”
