Spring is indeed the little girl's face changes as soon as she says it. After eight consecutive days of heavy rain, it was clear in just one day. On the third day after the flood, the sun was hanging high, and the bright sunshine shone on this land with thousands of holes.

Yang Zhong narrowed his eyes and looked at Xuan Shaoning. Since he reported to his family, Yang Zhong recalled the details of his life in Fengjucheng. Speaking of which, Xuan Shaoning can be regarded as one of Yang Jie's life-saving benefactors.

"How could you appear in Huazhou City? You actually escaped Tangren's eyes along the way from Mobei?"

"General, the last general set out ten days ago, and I was not the only one on the way." Xuan Shaoning shouted at the two people who were ten feet away. After agreeing, they walked slowly over. Yang Zhong looked at it and it turned out to be a woman and a boy.

The woman looked stronger than ordinary people, especially her face was covered with thick rouge and red lips, but the position of her chin could not hide the green stubble at all, and of course the Adam's apple on his neck.

Look at the boy again, with bright eyes and white teeth, and infinite youth. Although he was wearing coarse cloth clothes, his impulsive vitality could not be concealed. The boy snuggled beside the woman, facing Yang Zhong without any timidity, blinked his clear eyes and looked directly at the other party.

If we look at it from the back, the couple looks a bit like mother and son, but Yang Zhong will know that the woman is clearly a man pretending to be.

"You two are also from the Xuanjia Army?" Yang Zhong asked.

The woman said, "General Yang really has good eyesight! We are Jingyi Army, Duan Lang, the last general!"

The young man immediately followed up, "The last general Ji Wenhan met the general!"

Yang Zhong waved his hand, "Just like you, don't say you have good eyesight. You can tell if you just come to someone and you can tell that you are a man. I really don't know if Tang Ren's eyes are blind?"

"General, we saw what happened to Huazhou City with our own eyes that day. In the past two days, we have also tried our best to provide the best of our ability. General..."

Yang Zhong directly interrupted Xuan Shaoning and said, "It must be Xiao Yunqi's instructions to come. You are now a rebel party recognized by the court. You dare to return to Huazhou. Are you afraid that I will immediately send someone to arrest you and send him to the capital?"

"If the general wants to do this, he has called someone just now, and there is no need to wait until now." Xuan Shaoning said: "General, whether it is the Xuanjia Army, the Jingyi Army, the general or the same group of generals, the general has been dealing with us so many times. Does the general have no judgment?"

"Human hearts will change. Can the people I knew at the beginning be guaranteed that I always knew?"

"What the general said is reasonable! People's hearts are inevitably fickle. Under different circumstances, they will always change their original intentions. Isn't this what Buddhism calls "not forgetting the original intention"? It is really not easy to do this. All the soldiers of the Jingyi Army have never changed their original intentions. If the general doesn't believe this now, I will

I still firmly believe that the general will believe it in the future.”

"Just tell me what is your purpose in Huazhou today?"

"General, Daliang had to face the major choice of life and death as early as last year. In almost a year, has the family and country improved significantly? Huazhou has become a country of territories, and even the capital was implicated. Look, the real main force of the Tang navy has gathered outside Bingzhou City. Once they launch an attack, the general thinks that with the current capital's troops can resist?"

"You don't need to worry about these things. What you should worry about is yourself. There is Xiliang in the north and Xiatang in the south. Even the imperial court regards you as its enemy. Isn't your situation even more difficult than us?"

"If the general thinks this way, it means that the last general's trip is not worth it!" Xuan Shaoning came to his spirit. "At this time, the general can still consider it for us, which shows that the general is actually in his heart and agrees that we are rebels. General, whether we are rebels will be proved by time. The reason why the general sent us here is to help the general."

"Help me? It's up to you three?" Yang Zhong laughed so angry, "One old man, a woman and a teenager, can you three help me? Do you think I am a three-year-old child or do you think you are Kong Ming alive?"

"General" Duan Lang spoke. When Yang Zhong saw his red and extremely inconsistent face, he quickly turned his eyes. He could not even eat lunch after looking at it for a while. "We can do a lot of things, and we can do everything that cannot be done on the surface."

"General, it has been two days since the flood. According to the custom, the general should have returned to the capital to report his life. He has to explain all this to the emperor himself, but the general is still staying in Huazhou City. Does the general not consider his own way of retreat?"

Yang Zhong had already thought about what Xuan Shaoning said, and there was no need for an outsider like him to remind himself of his thoughts and decisions at the same time, there was no need to inform these people about his thoughts and decisions.

"I have to arrange these things and you don't need to interfere. You can leave quickly, otherwise I'll be really rude!"

Yang Zhong had already started to issue an order to expel guests, but Xuan Shaoning never let go easily, so he insisted on continuing to persuade. Looking at Yang Zhong's increasingly gloomy face, Duan Lang began to worry. He wanted to step forward and pull Xuan Shaoning. This was not the time for a quarrel.

Gu Hongxuan shouted loudly at the critical moment, "Report to the general, the court has sent someone!"

When he heard that someone had come to the court, Yang Zhong immediately sorted out his clothes and stopped paying attention to Xuan Shaoning and others. He hurriedly followed Gu Hongxuan to welcome him outside the city. Before leaving, Gu Hongxuan tried a color at Xuan Shaoning.

It is said that it is outside the city, in fact, at this time, it is impossible to tell where it is inside the city. Where the flood has faded, there are mud and ruins everywhere. As for the places where the flood has not yet retreated, the turbid water surface is seen at the extreme. Fortunately, the northeast side near the official road is relatively lightly affected, and it can be regarded as the lightest in the whole city.

It's already a place.

The Malay, who was sent to the imperial city, immediately fell into the mud with his feet. He immediately frowned. The new pair of official boots were ruined. Looking at the Huazhou City, there was no place to find a seat in it. The only place that satisfies him was that Yang Zhong did not ask him to wait too long.

"General Yang" the tone of the messenger was unfriendly, "This scene is even worse than in the war report. I don't know how to reply to the emperor this time."

Yang Zhong first looked further away, and then he smiled and touched his clothes and couldn't find any money. He had to turn his eyes to Gu Hongxuan who was standing beside him and got awkward smile from Gu Hongxuan. The flood came suddenly and it was too late to escape. He would remember to leave some money. When he really wanted to use it, he found that his pocket was empty.

"The father-in-law is very hard on the way. He also saw the tragic situation of Huazhou City. Since the general of the country received the order to guard Huazhou, he must not leave at this critical moment. When everything improves, the general of the country will immediately return to Beijing to collect the crime."

The messenger sneered and said, "General Yang is also an old man in the court. He doesn't even know these rules. I'm afraid that the emperor will not spare him after the general returns to the capital. General Yang, this is the imperial edict of the court, and this will be handed over to you. I will no longer waste time." After saying that, the messenger pushed the edict into Yang Zhong's hand, then turned over the horse. With this move, the soil brought on the official boots splashed the horse all over the horse. The messenger could no longer hide his disgust expression, turned his horse's head and ran along the official road.

"General?"

Yang Zhong raised his hand to stop Gu Hongxuan. He stood there and opened the edict and browsed it quickly. The contents were not much different from what he expected. If there was anything that exceeded his expectations, it would be that the words were more intense and the crimes listed were more serious.

Gu Hongxuan wanted to come up and take a peek, but Yang Zhong immediately closed the edict and said: "I will take responsibility for the crimes of the court. At present, disaster relief is the top priority."

"I thought the court would at least send disaster relief personnel to help, but there was only such a eunuch who was arrogant and praised. It was really disappointing! The position of Huazhou is so important that the court would not know. It has been two days since it was not sent out any disaster relief convoys. Are you planning to let us die on our own!"

"How can you talk about the court at will?" Yang Zhong glared at Gu Hongxuan, "You are also an old man in the army. Don't you know what to say on any occasion?"

"But, General..."

"Okay, we must not give up in Huazhou. How did you do when you summon the soldiers of Guangyuan Army?"

"Apart from the deaths and fleeing, the injured are still 60% of the original military forces. At present, they have been reassembled."

"That's good! Let's go back and see those three again."
