Chapter 113: Ning Hao
The front line of Yinshan Mountain is full of gullies, and soil is dug and walls are built. The seven-foot-high earth walls connect one mountain after another.
Among them, the lower valleys, soldiers and horses frequently traveled, and you could see a large city wall with strong walls, enemy towers, and beacon towers.
This is a Sai City built in the northern part of Yinshan Front. A total of seven Sai City like this were built to garrison troops and store grain and horses.
"Haven!" A black-armored general came towards Saicheng. He held the reins in his left hand and a disheveled man in his right hand.
The black-armored general pulled out a bronze mirror from his waist, raised it to his head and shook it, and the closed city gate opened inward.
He held the man with a banyan head to the city wall. After seeing a general in golden armor, he knelt on one knee and bowed, "Master, I just caught him, I want to use intelligence to save my life."
"Tell me, I'll spare you." General Jin'er turned around, his face was neat and his eyebrows were heroic, and he was Chen Kongkong.
The black-armored general punched the man in the abdomen and said coldly: "Tell me honestly."
The man with a disheveled head curled up and coughed up white foam. He looked at Chen Kongkong �
Chen Kongkong looked at General Black Armor and said, "Let him live, send him five hundred cattle and sheep to buy his life, and let him go after the war is over."
"No." The black-armored general responded.
Chen Kongkong reached out and pointed the two soldiers, "You two go out of the line and take him down. Zhang Heng, please stay."
Two soldiers walked down the city wall with the arms of a man with disheveled heads, and the black-armored general stood there.
"What do you think?" Chen Kongkong asked.
Zhang Heng bowed and said, "The last general thought that the King of Xirong must be preparing for war in the training of troops. Salt and iron are the urgent needs of the army. The King of Xirong has a great goal, so we have to wait."
King Nurhaci is a name among the barbarians, and most people in the Central Plains call him King Xirong.
"That's right, take off the black helmet, stay in Sai City for a few days," Chen Kongkong walked to the chassis and looked at the north outside the Lianmian Mountains. "This year is a bit strange. The barbarians' movements were very big throughout the autumn, and they were fought two or three times. Logically speaking, the winter was the time for both sides to recuperate, but the Xirong King's cavalry frequently harassed the iron ore in the east of Yinshan, which had seriously affected daily production."
Chen Kongkong frowned and said in a deep voice: "You think, is it possible that the King of Xirong wants to launch a large-scale battle in winter?"
While taking off his black helmet, Zhang Heng said, "It shouldn't be true. Winter combat is a taboo in military strategists. It is difficult to block roads with heavy snow and transport food. If he wears helmets and armor in the snow for a long time, countless people will die of freezing."
Chen Kongkong nodded and said in a deep voice: "It makes sense, even if he really wants to fight, then this is the best time, so there is no need to delay any further. But why did he catch people and train troops?"
Zhang Heng guessed: "I heard that several large tribes of the barbarians have had a lot of trouble in recent years. Some tribes will send troops to attack in winter. Could it be that the training is to defend against other tribes?"
"No, the decision is not that simple." Chen Kongkong's face was solemn, and she always had an ominous premonition in her heart.
"You know the language of the barbarians and leave it to you. I organized a group of people. You will take them to the grassland to check, focusing on the cities built by vendors. It is safer and there are more information to be found."
"No," Zhang Heng bowed his hand and agreed, but there was a hint of confusion in his eyes. He asked: "I remember that the bookstore has a dish that is specifically responsible for this matter? The Grand Marshal can let them..."
Zhang Heng's words stopped here, and Chen Kongkong's increasingly cold expression made him so nervous that he couldn't speak.
Chen Kongkong said coldly: "Stop asking, go."
Zhang Heng focused his head and hurriedly walked down the city wall.
Chen Kongkong looked at the direction of the grassland alone, with heavy snow flying. The weather is always falling for an hour or two from time to time. She suddenly moved the center of the earth. Looking back and looking to the southwest, it was the direction of Xuejin City.
She had a premonition in her heart that the King of Xirong was waiting for an opportunity, and at this moment, the most likely chaos in the north was Xuejin City where the storm gathered.
...
Xuejin City is a large and beautiful courtyard with the word "Qin" hanging on the door plaque.
A man in brocade was chased by a broom, and the owner of the broom was a beautiful woman.
"Qin Wu! Who asked you to come back? I asked you to come back? Who asked you to come into this house?" Ning Hao waved his broom, and he would not give up until he drove Qin Wu out of the house.
"Go out, my family doesn't welcome you. If you want to force yourself to stay, then I will move out!"
With a "bang", Qin Wu did not avoid it and the broom hit his face.
"Hey, are you stupid? You should avoid it. Forget it, do you like to hide or not, you are rough and thick-skinned anyway." Ning Hao gasped and threw the broom on the ground, looking at Qin Wu with anger.
Qin Wu stood there and smiled bitterly: "There will be a big change in Xuejin City. I am worried about you and want to pick you up. With my martial artist on the top of the mountain, no one in Xuejin City can stop me now, and the elders can't."
Ning Hao frowned and shouted, "Ah! Come with you? I don't suffer the grievance of being displaced. I live well in Xuejin City. It's your business to leave. I won't follow you. Don't think that it's great to be a martial artist on the top of the mountain. It's not a coward who can't protect anything."
"Can you stop making trouble?" Qin Wu suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Ning Hao's arm, and said fiercely: "I didn't joke with you. There will definitely be something big in Xuejin City. You are my wife. How many people in Xuejin City will hit you with their eyes? I will definitely take you away."
"I'm making trouble? You said I'm making trouble?" Ning Hao shook Qin Wu's hand away and said angrily: "If you have the ability, please give up. Why do you want to verbally with me? If you don't leave, you won't leave. What do you want to do?"
"You..." Qin Wu was silent and did not go forward to touch Ning Hao.
Ning Hao looked at the white sky with anger, standing under a bare peach tree, and snowflakes fell on his shoulders didn't care.
Qin Wu just stood with him. This time he stood for a quarter of an hour. Qin Wu finally couldn't hold it in. She found that Ning Hao's face became paler.
He said anxiously: "How is your body nurturing? Do I want me to let some famous doctors be thick in the mansion?"
"No, I'm very good." Ning Hao snorted, not giving Qin Wu a good look.
But her body couldn't bear it anymore. When her legs and feet were weak, she would fall into the snow. Qin Wu quickly looked, stepped forward and hugged Ning Hao in his arms, and hurriedly said, "My fault is all mine. Let's go back to the house first."
"Hey, wait," Ning Hao suddenly reached out and grabbed Qin Wu's shoulder, his voice softened a lot, "You shouldn't come back, I can't leave either. It was the decision made by Lord Wuxian in staying in Xuejin City. The dishes in the bookstore are staring around the yard every day. I stay in Xuejin City, and you and I can be safe."
Qin Wu's face was solemn, and after listening to Ning Hao's words solemnly, his ears were raised high, as if he was afraid of missing a word.
"Also, don't tell me that Wu Xian was dead or something. If something happened to her, the barbarian army would definitely go south, and you wouldn't be able to come back," Ning Hao smiled at the corner of his mouth, reached out to touch Qin Wu's ears, and pinched his earlobe with his two green fingers, "Did you hear it clearly? You will go back after today. If you have anything to do, when Wu Xian comes back, I will ask her to resign from the position of commander of Dachi Wu Zu."
"Okay, say a few words, you are in bad health." Qin Wu didn't care whether Ning Hao agreed or not, picked her up in the waist and took her all the way to the bed in the inner room.
When the windows inside the house are pushed open, you can still hear the sound of the wind outside.
Ning Hao's face turned a lot rosy, his hands pressed behind his head and said, "I heard that Xiaoxing is back, and that kid doesn't know how to come to see me. He is really a kind and lovely man with you."
"I've been to see Lu Xing." Qin Wu said.
"Oh? Then what did you say to him?" Ning Hao asked in curiosity in his eyes.
Qin Wu said in a deep voice: "I told him, 'The Great Zhou Dynasty is the biggest disaster. I advised him to give up some of the northern lands and raise troops to capture Youzhou Kyoto'. It's a pity that his character is so kind, which is very different from what I think of as domineering."
"Hehe, hehe," Ning Gao looked at Qin Wu's face, with interest in his eyes, and said, "Do you still remember what happened back then? What a big deal? Besides, the Wang family is not something we can afford, so don't take it seriously."
"How can I forget? The Wang family is too bullying. Those children in the capital are so bold. I shouldn't have let you go to the streets alone. I shouldn't have participated in any hunting. It's all my fault, it's all my fault."
Ning Hao's face became more and more grim as he listened to Qin Wu's words, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Qin Wu, do you want me to count the death of the fetus on your head? I was so playful back then that I had to go shopping at the sky lantern. If you mention it again, I have to look good!"
Qin Wu fell into silence. He had hatred in his heart, which was hatred for Kyoto. He didn't like the glory there, and he hated the nobles' faces. Xiao Hao was pregnant when he was forced to flee by the children in the capital, which caused miscarriage and even more ailment to Ning Hao's body.
"Take good care of your body, I'll listen to you and return to the snow field." Qin Wu stood up, his back feeling a little lonely.
Ning Hao quickly sat up from the bed. She pursed her lips, her eyes were reluctant. She looked at Qin Wu's broad back and merged all the words into one sentence, "I have been taking the medicine given by Jiang Yazhi. I will have children again until the spring next year."
"Really, really..." Qin Wu turned around suddenly and fell to the couch with a thud. His eyes were filled with joy, and he held Ning Hao's arm with both hands.
"Okay, it's great. I will definitely come in the spring next year. No, I will resign from the position of commander Wu Zu of Dachi. I will accompany you and protect you and your children in the future."
"Yes." Ning Hao smiled and his cheeks were red.
