MTL - Rebirth of Glory and Splendour-Chapter 21 reason
Especially Wei Zhao, with murderous intent in his eyes, he raised his hand, pointed at Huo Qingyang, and said coldly, "Huo Qingyang, tell me clearly!"
The person who would call himself His Highness must be someone who knew his identity as King Qin, and Huo Qingyang claimed that he had saved his life, but Wei Zhao thought about it, but couldn't remember when it happened.
Seeing Wei Zhao frowning slightly and the doubts on his face not seeming to be fake, Huo Qingyang continued: "Six years ago, outside the city of Wulan, His Highness once rescued a child from the hoofs of Fuyu people."
six years ago? ! That was the thirty-ninth year of Yongjia, and it was his first time to go out with the army. All he could think about was how to make achievements and build a career, but Mr. Li was too cautious. This is not allowed, and that is not allowed. Wei Zhao can't be bothered, so let it go on like this , when will the war end.
If it was someone else, the head coach had orders not to act rashly. No matter how dissatisfied he was, he could only hold back. He would never dare to attack against the order.
Although Wei Zhao was the prince, he was also a general under Li Yan. It was obvious that it was impossible to violate the order, but secretly, he often took hundreds of personal soldiers and wandered on the border between the two countries, encountering a small number of Fuyu enemy troops. , beheaded without mercy.
It's hard to say whether Wei Zhao is lucky or not. The first few times he encountered a small-scale Fuyu army, ranging from a few hundred to a thousand or two thousand. His personal soldiers were Dayan's most elite cavalry. , there is an enemy with the ability of one enemy ten, two or three times the number of enemies, it is not a problem.
Unexpectedly, on this day, Wei Zhaoyuan was wandering around at will, but he encountered Duguen, the right general of Fuyu who raided Wulan City. Although Du Guen was not leading the famous Golden Wolf Army, he had more than 10,000 troops, and it was not something that Wei Zhao's mere hundreds of troops could handle.
Youzhou has a flat terrain, thousands of miles of fertile fields, the rich and fertile Songhe Plain to the east, the vast Wusu Prairie to the west, and the rich Arslan Mountains. It is a rare treasure for farming, grazing, and even fishing and hunting. .
But Youzhou has a bad point, that is, it is high in the north and low in the south, and it falls in Fuyu's hands. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but in Dayan's hands, it is easy to attack and difficult to defend.
It is precisely because of the convenience of the terrain that it is particularly easy for the Fuyu people to raid the city of Ulan. Besides, Mr. Li's men were mainly stationed near Baicheng, more than a hundred miles away from Wulan City, and there was no time to rescue them if something happened.
When Wei Zhao arrived, the Fuyu people had already looted the city and hurriedly retreated. In the end, they were afraid of Dayan's army of 100,000 people. They only dared to kill and robbery, but they did not dare to stay in the city.
"His Royal Highness, do you want to chase? My subordinates heard that Dugu En ordered people to rob hundreds of girls in the city." Wei Zhao's personal soldiers replied to him, his tone very resentful.
When the people of Fuyu went south to Dayan to "fight the autumn wind", in addition to robbing gold, silver and food, the most popular ones were girls and young women of the right age. When those innocent women arrived in Fuyu, they would be divided among Fuyu men who could not marry their daughters-in-law, and would bear children for them.
In the future, when their children grow up, they will never remember that they have Han blood in them, they will only do the same things as their parents. Similar tragedies have played out generation after generation in the northern Xinjiang of Dayan.
Wei Zhao thought for a while, then waved: "Brothers, come with me!" How could he not chase, just let Fuyu people go, he's sorry for his surname.
In that battle, Wei Zhao defeated more with less, but only relying on 800 elite cavalry, he killed Dugu En and led less than half of the remaining men and horses to retreat, and at the same time rescued many girls who were kidnapped.
Wei Zhao had a limited number of people, so he took it as soon as he saw it, and was not chasing after him. Just when he was about to take people back to the city, he accidentally found a Fuyu cavalry behind him. It seemed that there was a boy hanging there. Stamped by his horse's hoof.
Without saying a word, Wei Zhao immediately turned his horse's head and chased forward. The "meteor" under Wei Zhao's body is Wusun Jinshang's **** horse. When he was ten years old, Princess Gaochang, who married Wusun, specially ordered it to be sent to celebrate his tenth birthday.
Meteor was as fast as the wind, and it was by no means comparable to ordinary horses, and in the blink of an eye, it caught up with the Fuyu people at the end of the team. Wei Zhao took a spear and lifted the Fuyu cavalry off the war horse, and then took advantage of the situation to pick up the boy who was pale with fright and hang it on the horse in front of him.
At this time, the nearby Fuyu soldiers found Wei Zhao and surrounded him one after another. Wei Zhao glanced at them coldly, and the spear shot again, but after a while, he led the boy out of the siege, leaving a mess behind him.
"Are you the kid who was caught by mistake?" Wei Zhao narrowed his eyes slightly, the murderous intent in his eyes gradually faded away, replaced by a hint of humor.
Back then, Wei Zhao did rescue Huo Qingyang, but after he returned to the city, he handed him over to the local officials and asked them to take him home. He never asked about the matter since then, so he didn't know that the people in Fuyu arrested all of them. How can a young girl be mixed with a Huo Qingyang.
Huo Qingyang lowered his head and said in a low voice, "It's not the ones who were caught by mistake, but those bastards. They took my sister. I wanted to save her, so I chased after her."
Although most of the captive girls were rescued, a small number were still taken away by the Fuyu people. Thinking that Huo Qingyang is the only one in the Huo family, Wei Zhao did not mention his sister, but said indifferently: "Even if Huo Qingyang is the only one in the Huo family. It's not you, I'll save you too, you don't have to worry about it."
Huo Qingyang shook his head desperately and insisted: "For Your Highness, this is a trivial matter, and you don't need to worry about it, but for the next, how can you forget the grace of saving your life, and you are definitely not ungrateful."
Wei Zhao said helplessly: "I only saved your life, but you saved my father and son. Even if the matter is even, it really has to be calculated carefully. It is I who owe you favor."
Huo Qingyang blinked and suddenly smiled: "Since His Highness owes me, do you plan to pay it back?"
Wei Zhao laughed and said with a smile, "How do you want me to repay you?" This kid is interesting, he just said he wanted to repay his favor, but in the blink of an eye, it turned into a favor from him.
Huo Qingyang restrained his smile and said sternly: "I want to join the army, but I have no way to go. It's better if I **** Your Highness and the little Highness back to Beijing. Your Highness sees it right and arranges a place for me."
After all, Huo Qingyang still intends to follow Wei Zhao to Beijing. However, his request was not excessive. Thinking about the grievances between him and Fuyu people, Wei Zhao understood why he wanted to join the army.
Later, Huo Qingyang honestly explained his family background to Wei Zhao. It turned out that the Huo family’s ancestral home was in the border city of Yunzhou, but in the 29th year of Yongjia, Ji Yu, the prince of Changning, restored the two counties of Baicheng and Wulancheng in Youzhou. The whole family moved to Ulan City, and he himself was born in Ulan City.
Duguen raided the city of Ulan, and Huo Qingyang's sister was kidnapped, and her whereabouts are unknown since then. The next year, Wei Zhao was captured by accident, Huo Qingyang's father died in battle, and his mother died shortly afterward, so he entrusted him to his uncle in his hometown.
Huo Qingyang's uncle lost his wife at an early age and had no children, so he treated Huo Qingyang as his own son. Unexpectedly, last year, the uncle went into the mountains to hunt, but there was no news, and Huo Qingyang was the only one left in the Huo family.
That day in Tianmenling, Huo Qingyang recognized Wei Zhao at a glance. He could never forget that six years ago, when he thought he was going to die, the young prince in red and black armor descended like a god, and he just came from the people of Fuyu. He was rescued under the iron hoof.
It was because that person was Wei Zhao that he treated them so well along the way. In Huo Qingyang's view, Wei Zhao's kindness to him will never be repaid. At that time, the Fuyu people were retreating, and Wei Zhao took a great risk by turning around to save him.
Ever since Huo Qingyang said that Wei Zhao had saved him, Yi Yin didn't say anything. He sat on the side and listened to the conversation between him and Wei Zhao.
Finally, when Huo Qingyang said that he wanted to join the army, Yi Yin suddenly remembered his identity, not the present, but the future.
Huo Qingyang was Huo Dongjun, the general Dayan who had recovered the whole territory of Youzhou in the ten years of Taiping, and completely defeated Tiele and Fuyu. He once told Yi Yin that the person he admired most in his life was Wei Zhao, the king of Qin.
At first, Yi Yin didn't connect the two together, not only because of the different names, but because the Huo Qingyang in front of him had nothing in common with the General Huo in his memory.
At this time, Huo Qingyang was a handsome young man with delicate features, while the future General Huo was a burly man. Standing in front of Yi Yin, who was always famous for his height, he could still be half a head taller than him. I really don't know. how long it is.
Thinking of this, Yi Yin couldn't help but keep looking at Huo Qingyang. Seeing that he was puzzled, they looked at him, one opened wider than the other.
In the end, Yi Yin was the first to admit defeat, smiling and wiping away the tears that had been forced out of his eyes for a long time. He thought about it again and again, and always felt that it was incredible that Huo Qingyang would look like Huo Dongjun.
But why he changed his name, Yi Yin could guess the reason. After Wei Su died, the sixth prince, Wei Yang, took the throne. Huo Qingyang's name violated the taboo of the new emperor, but he had to change it. The word "Dongjun" was the name of the legendary sun god.
It's just that in this life, he and Wei Zhao have returned to Dayan safely, and they will never give Wei Yang another chance to ascend the throne. It is estimated that Huo Qingyang's name does not need to be changed.
After some haggling, Huo Qingyang finally persuaded Wei Zhao to stay at Huo's house for a while longer, and then set off together after he has dealt with his family affairs.
There is no one else in the Huo family, Huo Qingyang is leaving, and he doesn't plan to come back in the short term, so he has a lot to deal with. Wei Zhao and Yi Yin did not expect that Huo Qingyang looked so poor that there were still many good things at home.
On the day of the market, Huo Qingyang borrowed an ox cart from Lizheng, intending to bring the prey brought down the mountain this time and the medicinal materials stored at home to the county town to sell.
Wei Zhao saw that many medicinal herbs were old, so he persuaded Huo Qingyang not to sell them for the time being. These things can't be sold for a big price in a small place, and they're not heavy anyway. It's better to take them to the capital, and if they sell them, they can at least buy him a set for two. courtyard.
Huo Qingyang agreed, and cleaned up the things again, took away all the lightweight and valuable ones, and sold only the bulky ones. That's it, the silver taels sold in the end made him overjoyed.
Seeing this, Wei Zhao couldn't help but sigh, how much money has been swindled by this stupid boy before, no wonder he is so good and he can live so poor.
