46. ??In the heart (9)

Although Que Shu and others reacted quickly, they were still fast, but Quezhu's had already planned it.

Chalong sent people to escort Que Shu away, and the Turks sounded the horn of the attack.

The sound of the horn surged from behind like a wave of advancement. He Rongjin hooked the stirrups with one foot, turned around when he heard the sound, and his eyes flashed with the ignited fire of war.

Tabu rushed up from behind, slowed down his horse, and shouted, "General, go quickly!"

The carriage where Que Shu was lying in front, shaking along the horse's hooves, looking like a boating storm. He Rongjin tightened his hand while holding the horse's reins, and sighed slightly in his heart, knowing that this is not the time to show off his power, so he urged the horse to move quickly.

They were originally near the junction between the Turks and the Western Qiang, so within an hour, they saw the Western Qiang battle flag hanging in front of them and shaking with the wind. When they looked at it from a distance, He Rongjin seemed to hear the familiar sound of the battle flag when it was blown by the wind.

"General He Gu!" Tabu suddenly screamed.

He Rongjin was stunned and said to himself: They are not far away, why should they scream so loudly? Just as he was about to agree, he saw a Central Plains man wearing Western Qiang leather armor galloping on a horse and responding loudly: "General Tabu!"

Is this... a coincidence?

He Rongjin felt indescribable. It is inevitable that he would be famous, and it is not without it in the history of the Western Qiang Kingdom. It was just that he was chosen by his master himself, and he was extremely rare. Unexpectedly, he still ran into it.

He Gu rushed over, his eyes swiftly turning on everyone's faces. He didn't see Que Shu, and immediately became nervous, "Where is the king?"

Ta sermon: "In the carriage."

He Gu said in a panic: "Is the king injured?"

Ta preached: "Yes."

He Gu turned his horse's head without saying a word and consciously opened the way for them.

He Rongjin didn't think Tabu's expression was strange at all, so he knew that this person had a good status in the army.

He Gu sent them all the way to the military camp, and then personally brought people to move Que Shu down.

Que Shu lay on the mattress, his face turned slightly blue, and the long bumps made his wounds crack, and his clothes were a little stained with blood, which made He Gu fuss.

The military doctor was quickly carried into the tent.

He Rongjin stood outside the tent, looked at the soldiers blocking people on both sides of the tent, smiled self-deprecatingly, and turned around and found a place to sit down.

"Who are you?" He Gu was worried that Que Shu didn't pay attention, which did not mean that his deputy general did not notice this person who looked different from Wang's other close guards.

He Rongjin said: "The king's minister."

He said this more aroused the curiosity of the deputy general and asked, "Where is the official position?"

He Rongjin was stunned for a moment and couldn't answer. His official positions were granted by King Qiqi and King Min Min. In front of Que Shu, he seemed to be either a prisoner or an assassin. "Do you... have wine?"

This time it was the deputy general's turn to be stunned, "What?"

"Wine." He Rongjin licked her lips and said, "It's better for her daughter to be red."

"There are strict orders in the army, and no drinking is allowed." The deputy general frowned, not sure where this person came from.

He Rongjin sighed and said, "Yes, you must not drink." But it is one thing, but reality is another. His mouth is so bland that he is so angry that he wishes to tear a piece of wood down and chew it.

Tabu suddenly rushed out of the tent, pulled He Rongjin up and walked in, "General, the king is looking for you everywhere."

He Rongjin was dragged a few steps while crooked his legs, feeling a piercing pain coming from the soles of his feet, and he couldn't help but shake his hands and said, "I'll go by myself."

Tabu didn't care and helped him lift the curtain.

This action surprised He Gu and the deputy general inside and outside the tent. Tabu was the captain of the guard team of the Hun Soul King. His official position was not high, but he belonged to the king. No one except Que Shu could send him. Although his actions were unintentional, it further highlighted He Rongjin's extraordinary identity.

There was a smell of medicine in the tent, and Que Shu's wound was rebanded, looking a little drowsy. He Rongjin only cheered up when he came in and complained: "Where have you gone?"

He Rongjin said: "Look for wine."

Que Shu sighed, "There is no wine in the army."

He Rongjin said: "I understand now."

Que Shu said to He Gu: "You go outside and find two daughters Honglai."

He Gu widened his eyes in surprise and said in a moment: "Yes."

"Wait." He Rongjin held back the wine bug that was about to crawl into his throat and said, "Why can't drink alcohol in the army be broken because of me?"

Que Shu suddenly smiled, "You have carried forward the iron rule that the army cannot drink. The Western Qiang people were addicted to alcohol. They had no regulations on death like this before, but they were just not allowed to drink on the eve of the war."

He Rongjin felt like he was not alive.

A sudden rushing footsteps came from outside, "Report to the general, there is an emergency military situation ahead!"

He Gu didn't care about Que Shu's presence and hurriedly said, "Come on quickly!"

The soldier submitted a military report, and He Gu's face changed drastically.

Que Shu said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"

He Gu said: "Quzhu gathered 100,000 troops to face the border, and Lord Chalong retreated step by step, and he will soon retreat into the Western Qiang territory."

Que Shu's face suddenly changed and became very subtle. He had happily talked to Cha Long about attacking the Turks, but he didn't expect that the Turks had already hit the door in a blink of an eye. What a sarcastic sarcasm!

"He Gu!"

He Gu and He Rongjin moved at the same time, but He Gu said "Are" openly, and He Rongjin only raised his eyes.

Que Shu suddenly reacted and looked at He Rongjin with an awkward expression.

The atmosphere solidified for a while.

He Gu couldn't hear Que Shu's orders, and was stunned and said in his mind: How can the fighter be fleeting? How can he tolerate delays? But Que Shu is his master, and no matter how dissatisfied he feels, he can only temporarily suppress it.

Que Shu quickly came back to his senses, "lead 20,000 troops to support Chalong and retreat to Qingfeng City."

"Yes!" He Gu took the order and came out.

Que Shu looked at He Rongjin who was indifferent, his throat was slightly dry, and after a while, he said, "I miss you very much."

He Rongjin groped back and forth with his fingers around his waist several times, as if there was a wine gourd hanging there, and said politely: "Thank you, Wang, for your concern."

Que Shu was so blocked that he had nothing to say. The reason why he changed Fu Yanzu's name to He Gu was just to give himself an excuse to call him He Gu openly, as if the man did not leave, but stayed by his side willingly and loyally did his job for him. It was just that this subtle mentality really made it difficult for him to speak of, especially with He Rongjin's cold reaction, he sighed and stopped talking about the matter, "I ordered the camp to be dismantled and we retreated to Qingfeng City."

"yes."

Qingfeng City has continuous cities, but the city walls are as solid as gold. It is the first line of defense for the Western Qiang to defend against the Turks.

After Que Shu led the remaining troops into the city, he immediately summoned the city lord Qi Ke and asked him to hand over the military power in the city to He Rongjin. He Rongjin frowned when he heard this, but he was unwilling to refute him in front of others. It was not until Qi Ke left that he said: "I haven't been to the battlefield for several years, and everything in the army has long been unfamiliar, and I'm afraid it's difficult to take on a great task."

Que Shu was unhappy. You should know that being able to make He Rongjinxin willing to serve under his command was once one of his dreams. Although this dream changed later, his mood was still there, so he naturally tried his best to convince, "Qizhu is coming with great force, and I am injured again. Apart from you, I can't think of the second candidate to take on a great responsibility."

He Rongjin seemed to see his displeasure and sighed, "I originally thought I could drink when I entered the city."

Que Shu smiled, "When I return to the palace, I will ask people to move as much as you want."

He Rongjin said: "I'll go to the city wall first."

"He Gu." Que Shu shouted.

He Rongjin paused when he left, but did not turn around.

Que Shu said: "After the war is over, I will let Fu Yanzu change his real name."

He Rongjin looked at the white sunlight and slowly said, "King Qibing, my name is He Rongjin."

The coalition forces of He Gu and Chalong returned to the city in three batches, and did not enter the city until the early morning of the next day. Although Qingfeng City is a major border defense center, it is very difficult to accommodate tens of thousands of troops at once. The city guard looked at it and went to most of the granaries to complain to He Rongjin.

He Rongjin wanted to throw this matter to Chalong, but who knew that Chalong was sent back to the capital by Que Shu early in the morning. It would be fine to throw it to He Gu. After all, He Gu is the commander of the army, but they are not familiar with it after all, so it is very easy to cause misunderstandings to throw a problem to him.

He Rongjin thought about it and asked the city to guard the city to raise grain while asking Que Shu about his plan to see if he was fighting or reconciliation.
