Chapter 19 Lady Xian

A group of young men who were well-dressed in luxury were trained by Yan Qing in just one afternoon.

Naturally, there was a lot of dissatisfaction in my heart, but no one dared to say it. Because Zheng Yanqing had just joined the clan group, the iron-blooded method of killing two people in a row made them feel inexplicably frightened. After the training, the twenty-three remaining clan children accepted another task: that is, to recite the seventeen forbidden laws and fifty-four in the army. If he recited the wrong one, he would be punished with ten army sticks.

Everyone believed that this young man with a pretty face, but a hard heart, and always a harmless smile on his face, would never be able to be sympathetic when he said that. For a moment, everyone studied hard in the military tent with a nervous mood.

If you are stripped naked in front of the entire sect group and spanked, even if it doesn't hurt, you will not be able to lose your face.

For a moment, the bustling military camp was quiet and silent on that night. Zheng Xing was so angry that he left the military camp overnight and returned to Xingyang City to complain. In Zheng Xing's opinion, Zheng Yanqing, a son from the other branch, actually cut off his face so arrogantly. It was unbearable. When he returned home, as long as he told the story, his family would make the decision for him and punish Zheng Yanqing.

His mother was indeed very angry.

But Zheng Yuancong said coldly: "I have practiced martial arts and can't even control a little baby. My elder brother has a heroic life, how can you be a shameless thing? Sister-in-law, don't go over and have a life of trouble. In my opinion, Zheng Yanqing is not wrong. Even if this matter is heard by the clan elder, it will be the face of the elder brother. A group of bastards actually regarded the important place of the military camp as a place of fun, and deserved to be slapped."

Zheng Yuancong has always respected his brother!

Although Zheng Xing's mother was very arrogant, she did not dare to refute Zheng Yuancong's opinion.

I could only comfort myself for a while and then sent Zheng Xing back to the military camp.

"Uncle, what you said is right, but Zheng Yanqing is a little too arrogant."

"Are you arrogant?" Zheng Yuancong sneered, "I don't think he is arrogant. Sister-in-law, Zheng Xing is a good material, and my elder brother has a deep expectation from him. He hopes that he can take charge of the scripture hall in the future... But he looks like now, not to mention taking charge of the scripture hall, I'm afraid that even the family business can't be maintained. Although Zheng Yanqing's actions today are too much, I have to say that it will only benefit Zheng Xing, but not harm.

Sister-in-law, don’t you think about it, Zheng Xing is going to go to war.

If the general comes to see his virtue, then the Zheng clan group has no rules at all... What military merit can he earn if he goes?

With Zheng Yanqing coming forward to rectify military discipline, the better the sect regiment is, the better the sect regiment will be. Don’t forget that he is the leader of the sect regiment. No matter how Zheng Yanqing makes great contributions, the greatest part will be obtained by Zheng Xing. Why do you have to be his future?"

After Zheng Yuancong said this, Mrs. Lu immediately stopped nagging.

Although she was still a little uncomfortable, considering that this matter was beneficial to Zheng Xing, she had nothing to say even if she was uncomfortable.

After all, the truth is in Zheng Yanqing's hands...

Zheng Yanqing waited overnight, but the Zheng family did not take any action.

This disappointed him very much, and he felt that his plan seemed to have failed!

After Zheng Xing came back, he never had any conflicts with him. In the next two days, Zheng Yanqing fucked the clan group and complained. Six more clan children withdrew from the clan group. In their words, they would rather go home and be scolded to death than stay in the military camp. Zheng Yanqing's methods were too ruthless, and Zheng Xing seemed very weak. What's the point of staying there?

In fact, Yan Qing did not practice too ruthlessly.

But for the young men who are well-off, it seems a bit cruel.

But for the village heroes, the effect was different. In the past, the clans' children ignored the matter and regarded the military camp as a brothel, and they only worked hard. Now good days are gone, and the young men can withdraw from the military camp, but the clans' town heroes cannot withdraw.

Therefore, they can only leave it to fate.

After three days, this fucking sect group became a little bit.

At least they will no longer be as weak as Zheng Yanqing saw when he first came, as if he had been hollowed out by a woman. His waist was straight and he had strength to take steps. Although he could not make any formation, the simple square array had already revealed some scale.

Three days later, the elders of the Zheng family sent the clan group to start the expulsion.

Looking at those who had the same virtue as themselves, but now they had become heroic and proud, and withdrew from the military camp, they began to feel a little regretful.

"Sima Zheng, you have to worry about these days!"

Zheng Xing smiled and said without a smile: "Now that we are heading to Donglai, someone still needs to escort food and supplies to ensure the supply of the clan regiment. It is said that the troops will go first before they move the food and supplies. I thought about it and thought it would be better for you to take over this task. Let's do this, you and Zheng Hongyi lead 200 people to escort food and supplies, and I and the other soldiers will set off... How about gathering in Donglai before the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month?"

OK, you were not seen during the training of troops. Are you coming out to pick peaches now?

Zheng Hongyi was furious and stood up to refute.

But Zheng Yanqing stopped him and bowed to Zheng Xing and said, "Zheng Yanqing's order."

"Brother Yan Qing, why should you agree to him... The person you trained with hard work will be taken over by him. We will escort food and grass behind him, and he went to Donglai to show off. Brother Yan Qing, how can you tolerate such a thing?"

"Haha, taking a loss means taking advantage. It may not be a good thing to show off."

Zheng Yanqing smiled and reached out to put his hand on Zheng Hongyi's shoulder and said, "He is the main general. If he wants to show off, let him go. Just do our own thing."

From the bottom of my heart, Zheng Yanqing was unhappy to go to war.

Now that it has become a baggage team, you may not have to go to the battlefield and take a look at the situation. Why not do it?

Anyway, it was the war destined to be defeated, and the person who rushed to the front died the fastest. Yan Qing didn't mind that Zheng Xing died on the battlefield.

According to the military system of the Sui Dynasty, he divided the 200 people into four teams.

A team of fifty people, with five fire chiefs under it. After the division of labor was completed, Zheng Yanqing and Zheng Hongyi set off. Unlike Zheng Xing's unlimited leadership of his troops, no one paid attention to the baggage and horses. After quietly sailing out of the military camp, they embarked on a journey to Donglai.

It was early winter, and Heluo ushered in its first snow since the beginning of winter.

The snow was not too heavy, but it made the road muddy and difficult to walk. Along the way, Zheng Yanqing was very careful and would rather take a long way than take the shortcut. Now the situation in Henan (not now Henan, but south of the Yellow River) is not peaceful. From Xingyang to Donglai, you have to pass through many bandit-affected areas. The bandits and horses are getting more and more serious. Zheng Yanqing has to be more careful.

But in this way, the speed will naturally slow down a lot.

When we arrived at Ye County (the capital of Donglai County, now Ye County, Shandong), the winter solstice had passed.

Lai Huer took the troops and Zongtuan's children who arrived in Ye County in advance and set off from Laizhou Bay and took a sea boat to Shabei City to assemble.

Zheng Xing naturally couldn't wait for Zheng Yanqing to come and set off with Lai Hu'er.

The Sui Dynasty official who stayed in Ye County was Zhou Fashang, deputy chief of the naval army. He was responsible for receiving the children of various clan groups, and then headed to Shabei City to gather. Although Emperor Yang of Sui ordered the construction of 300 five-tooth warships, the number of the Sui Dynasty naval army this time was 70,000.

There were 10,000 sailors conscripted from south of the Jianghuai River.

In addition, there are 30,000 crossbowmen and 30,000 platoons recruited from Lingnan. The so-called platoons are unique troops in the Lingnan region. They hold shields in one hand and short spears in the other. They are skilled in mountain warfare and are also suitable for field warfare. They are elite troops in Lingnan.

It is said that during this Eastern Expedition, Emperor Yang of Sui brought about his troops to scatter the country.

Not only were the twelve guards on the left and right, but also the local gangs and even the planners, all participated in the war.

Among them, the prefect of Ningyue County, Li Shuai Ning Changzhen, led his troops to come. However, he did not appear in Ye County, but went straight to Zhuo County and obeyed the orders under Yang Guang's tent.

Zhou Fashang, whose courtesy name was Demai, was born in a general family and was also a famous general who was very famous during the Daye period.

He was very enthusiastic when he saw Zheng Yanqing.

He immediately ordered someone to arrange a residence and said to Zheng Yanqing: "The General has gone to Shabei City to train troops and let me welcome you here. Now, the ships heading to Shabei City have not come back yet, so for a while, I cannot send you to Shabei City to assemble.

Please wait here for some time. There are many clan groups who have come to report recently. When the sea boat returns, I will arrange for you to gather in the sea immediately."

Zheng Yanqing didn't care, but Zheng Hongyi was quite dissatisfied.

"Why did Zheng Xing go to Shabei City first?"

After returning to his residence, he complained in disappointment: "Brother Yanqing, I said that guy is uneasy. Look, the sect group we worked hard to train has now become his capital for silence. He arranged for us to escort the baggage, but he ran to Shabei City to grab the merits."

Zheng Yanqing couldn't help laughing when he heard this!

"Are you trying to seize the credit?"

He hugged Zheng Hongyi and whispered: "Hongyi, remember that sometimes it may not be a good thing to rush too far. Do you still remember the stories I told you? Think about it carefully, Mr. Kong Ming used his pen and always made plans to move later, so he took the lead everywhere. Sometimes, it is not good to take the lead. He was eager to grab the credit and let him go. We should never run away."

Zheng Hongyi's age is about the same as Yan Qing.

In terms of household registration, he was a few days older than Yan Qing...

However, he has always trusted Yan Qing's words very much. Since Yan Qing said this, although he felt uncomfortable, he did not complain anymore.

The next day, Yan Qing had just finished practicing the horse spear and was about to go back to his room to rest.

Zheng Hongyi hurried over and shouted, "Yan Qing, Brother Yan Qing, another clan group arrived in Ye County, let's go and see the fun."

Yan Qing handed the horse spear to Xiong Dahai and asked curiously: "Which sect is here again?"

"Well, I heard it was Feng's family in Lingnan."

"Lingnan Feng Family?"

"It is the great-grandson of Mrs. Qiao State and the son of Feng Ang, the general of Zuowu Guard. I just heard that the guy brought a thousand hook sickle soldiers here."

Hook sickle soldier?

Zheng Yanqing was stunned, but became more interested.

The Lady of Qiao Guo was the famous Lady Xian in later generations. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, this Lady Xian created peace in Lingnan, and during the rebellion in Lingnan occurred. It was after Lady Xian suppressed the rebellion and led her troops to surrender to the Sui Dynasty. She was a very legendary woman.

However, in the second year of Renshou, the wife of Qiao State died of illness while patrolling Hainan. Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian was dismissed for ten days.

Zheng Yanqing respects Lady Xian very much.

So he said to Zheng Hongyi: "Since we are the children of the wife of Qiao, we might as well go and meet the Feng Family Gou Sick Soldiers who are intimidating in Lingnan."
