50Chapter 50 Tiger Teeth and Crane Mouth
"What a skill!" The right guard, who was caught with three blood marks, couldn't help but admire his face when he saw Ge Ruoyi's steps. No wonder the military advisor had to bring a maid with him to the battlefield, but it turned out that this maid was a master. !
Mu Hanzhang was slightly surprised, Ge Ruoyi had only learned hidden weapons from Gui Jiudao for a few months, how could he have such a skill?
"This is a footwork inherited from my family, called 'barefoot riding on the waves'. It's just a small trick, which made the right guard laugh." Ge Ruoyi comforted the little tiger in his arms and said with a smile.
"Oh, this is a good thing. Please teach me when you have time!" You Hujun leaned over with a smile and poked the little tiger's head in her arms, "Little thing, you have quite a temper!"
"Ruoyi said it's a family inheritance. If You Hujun wants to learn, he must first become a member of the Ge family." Seeing Ge Ruoyi's expression of embarrassment, Mu Hanzhang stepped forward to take the tiger cub back and teased.
"Okay! I'm willing to do that... Oops!" The right guard chuckled, and was about to say something else when his head was suddenly slapped. He turned around angrily and faced the expressionless face of the left guard, "What are you doing again? Why hit me?"
"Your face is bleeding." Zuo Hujun said.
"Really?" You Hujun touched it, and sure enough, the scratches were bleeding and quite painful. "It's okay. This small wound will be healed in a while."
"Apply medicine." Zuo Hujun pulled him back to apply medicine.
"What's the point of applying medicine? A scar on my face is a symbol of a man. I don't think the emperor can give me a military merit for this injury!" The right guard was struggling. He would apply medicine to this small injury. It would definitely heal. Being laughed at by Zhao Meng's grandson.
"Then how do you report this merit to the emperor, saying that it was the King of Southwest who scratched it?" Zuo Hujun grabbed his collar impatiently and dragged the noisy man into the tent.
The surroundings were finally quiet. Mu Hanzhang smiled and rubbed the little tiger's head, thinking that he had to trim the little thing's claws.
Ignoring the noise of the people outside, Mu Hanzhang, who was tired from the journey, returned to the military advisor's tent and lay down on the large and soft bed. After sleeping on the roof for two days, he really missed this clean and soft bed. The little tiger walked around the bed and started to pounce on the soft quilts one after another, having a great time.
When Ge Ruoyi came in with the food, Mu Hanzhang was almost asleep. The little tiger grabbed a strand of his black hair and kept chewing it. He chuckled and put the plate on the small table in the tent: "Young master, have some." Go back to sleep."
The smell of the food made Mu Hanzhang, who had been eating dry food for a day, suddenly feel hungry. He pulled his hair out of the tiger's mouth, took a cloth and wiped the saliva on it, stood up and sat at the small table, looking at the delicious and delicious food in front of him. , couldn't help but be a little surprised: "You did this?" Although the food in the army has improved, it will never reach this level.
"Young Master is tired, let's eat something good." Ge Ruoyi smiled. The prince just asked her to cook two dishes for the princess to eat.
"You are interested, but it is better not to do this kind of thing. As a military advisor, I should eat with the soldiers." Even so, Mu Hanzhang still picked up the chopsticks, "Go and get some minced meat to feed the tiger cubs. "Yeah." He still couldn't pronounce the name Xiao Huang. He always felt that calling a tiger Xiao Huang was a bit stupid.
Ge Ruoyi looked at the little tiger biting the pillow on the bed, and poured a bowl of soup for Mu Hanzhang: "I'll get it later. If you want to keep this tiger cub for a long time, you have to feed it yourself." Such a ferocious beast. If the cub is fed since it is young, it will regard the person who feeds it as its mother. When it grows up, it will not hurt its owner.
Mu Hanzhang nodded slightly when he heard this: "How could Ruoyi know this?"
"My family used to do maritime business, and my father once got a lion cub..." Ge Ruoyi said, the smile on her face gradually faded. In order to protect her, the male lion was almost shot to death by the Southeast King's archers. Through the sieve, you can escape by hiding under the lion.
He took out a small pouch from his lapel and showed it to Mu Hanzhang. It contained a bunch of golden lion hair. The hair was hard and bright. You can imagine what a mighty lion it once was. Mu Hanzhang tied the purse and returned it to Ge Ruoyi, and sighed softly: "Ruoyi, now that the war has started, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. The Southeast King will not sit idly by and ignore the withdrawal of the vassal from the southwest. It is only a matter of time to attack the southeast..."
"Young master, there is no need to persuade you any more. Ruoyi has made up his mind." Holding her purse tightly in her hands, Ge Ruoyi smiled but tears welled up in her eyelashes. "This slave lives just for revenge. Relying on a large army to destroy the southeast will not be able to dissolve my heart at all." Hate!”
Mu Hanzhang looked at her and couldn't help but sigh.
After traveling for another half month, the first batch of troops who came to join up with Prince Cheng's army joined forces and marched to the border of Shu. Suddenly a heavy rain fell and Jing Shao ordered to set up camp. It rained on the way and there was a lack of medicinal materials. It was easy for the soldiers to get sick. Marching in the rain could not go fast. It was really not worth the gain. It was better to wait until the rain stopped before leaving.
"Jun Qing, don't come out yet. I'll call you when the camp is set up." Jing Shao opened the carriage curtain and said to the people in the carriage.
"You come up too." Mu Hanzhang put down the tiger cub in his arms and took a cloth to wipe the rain off Jing Shao's face.
Jing Shao smiled and poked the little tiger with his rain-stained finger: "I'm fine, I have to go and watch them." After saying that, he jumped off the carriage and directed everyone to set up camp. The Hunan army that came to join was led by a general. Will obey the orders of Zhao Meng and the others, and he can only step forward.
"Sir, Ruoyi has to go first." Ge Ruoyi, who was sitting in front of the car, looked at the sky and said to Mu Hanzhang.
"Now?" Mu Hanzhang was a little stunned. On this rainy day, the strong men in the military camp had to stay for a few days, but it was really inappropriate for a weak woman to rush on her way now.
Ge Ruoyi smiled: "This kind of rain will not stop for four or five days. Yesterday, the prince received news that the King of the Southwest is selecting beauties to send to the King of the Southeast. If you go too late, you may not be able to catch up."
Mu Hanzhang frowned, looking at the woman who said such words calmly, and felt inexplicably heartbroken: "Take this. Once you get revenge, don't do stupid things. Wait for us in the southeast."
Ge Ruoyi took the silver note handed to her by Mu Hanzhang, was silent for a long time, knelt on the footrest and kowtowed to him three times: "If I survive this time, I will repay the kindness of the prince and the princess for the rest of my life!"
Jing Shao directed everyone to set up the tent. He was completely wet. Ge Ruoyi walked in front of him wearing a straw raincoat and leading a horse.
"Go ahead. Someone will pick you up outside Shengjing Pass." Jing Shao handed her a token. "Have you said goodbye to the princess?"
"I've already said that." Ge Ruoyi replied. The sound of the rain covered the sobs in her words. She knelt in the rain, kowtowed to Jing Shao three times in a proper manner, got on the horse, and rode away. The horse's hooves stepped on the muddy water, splashing water everywhere. The graceful figure covered by the straw raincoat quickly disappeared in the rain.
People who have nothing are the most terrifying, so the ancients said that there should be room for everything. The way of heaven is the law of ethics, and retribution is inevitable. If you kill everyone, sooner or later, the bad consequences will be revealed. Just like his own rebirth, perhaps there is a will of heaven in the dark. Jing Shao was stunned for a moment and walked towards the carriage driven to the tent by the coachman.
Because the heavy rain blocked the road, Jing Shao lazed around in the gentle land of the military advisor's tent for several days, but he was getting more and more annoyed with Xiao Huang.
"Jun Qing..." Jing Shao threw his princess down on the bed, "There's nothing to do, let's do something interesting..." Then he began to untie the clothes of the person under him.
"No, it's broad daylight, um..." Mu Hanzhang struggled to push the person away.
"Wow~" The little tiger cub saw Jing Shao stripping his master's clothes, and he also jumped on him, scratching and biting the snow-white belt.
"Get out of here, this is mine!" Jing Shao was immediately unhappy, pinched the tiger and threw it aside, but the little tiger was energetic and thought it was playing with him when it was thrown away, so it jumped back, hugged Jing Shao's hand and bit it, with its belly facing the sky, and its two hind paws kept kicking and scratching.
"Hahaha..." Mu Hanzhang couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene. Jing Shao looked at his princess with a sullen face. If he laughed at this time, there would be no atmosphere at all...
Finally, the clouds and rain cleared, and the army moved forward again, and soon joined the Shu army. It was already September when they arrived at the southwest border. The Qian army was waiting there, and since then, the 100,000-man army had been assembled.
They were supposed to camp 50 miles away from Shengjing Pass, but Jing Shao ordered them to camp 100 miles west of Shengjing Pass.
"Your Majesty, to enter the southwest, you must go through Shengjing Pass." Zhao Meng said to the map. He didn't quite agree with Jing Shao's decision to camp 100 miles away. Only when they were close could they move the siege equipment.
Laoheishang was more than 200 miles long and short from north to south, and only Shengjing Pass was a low-lying mountain. If they wanted to march into the southwest, this was the only way.
"There must be heavy troops stationed outside Shengjing Pass. If we attack here, we will suffer heavy casualties." Jing Shao said in a deep voice while sitting on the high platform. Everyone thinks that it is most appropriate to attack the southwest from Shengjing Pass. He also thought so in his previous life, but he did not expect that Shengjing Pass is easy to break. There are ambushes everywhere on the narrow mountain road that stretches for dozens of miles behind the pass, and there is a pass in Guanzhong. Entering from here, even if you can get in, it will be time-consuming and laborious, and the King of the Southwest will have the advantage, and even delay until the King of the Southeast comes to help.
"What should we do? In this area of hundreds of miles, except for Shengjing Pass, there is only Huya Pass. Do you want us to enter from there?" Hao Dadao couldn't help but speak out. He has been reading the Art of War since he was a child, and he is very familiar with these passes. The Huya here is different from the Huya Pass in Jingzhou. This time it is called Huya Hezui. The terrain is extremely steep, with rugged rocks, shaped like a crane's beak, and the cliffs hanging on it are like tiger teeth. There is only one mountain road for passage. It is really a one-man-guard-the-pass, and ten thousand men cannot open it!
"Wow~" These days, only Jing Shao called the little tiger by his name, and everyone else called it little Tiger. So when Xiao Huang heard someone mention Hu Ya, he thought they were calling him, so he followed suit.
