Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 485

Chapter 485 A Wolf’s Heart Is Like Iron
Three days later, at dawn, the entire army of the Kansai army set out to offer sacrifices to the gods and ghosts of heaven and earth. Two hours later, the three hundred thousand troops split into three groups, heading in the direction of Dafeichuan.

In these three short days, Qin Mubai had done a few “big things” in public and private.

Personal matters were simple but important. Qin Mubai sent someone to Lanzhou to send a personal letter from Wu Meiniang and Princess Gaoyang, as well as a picture of his new baby son, Qin Ying. Love Letter Qing Shu said goodbye to lovesickness and all sorts of hearts reported peace again, which made Qin Mubai feel much more at ease. Qin Mubai’s sense of accomplishment as a father was unprecedentedly inflated as his precious son was born with a tiger’s head and a tiger’s brain that was extremely likeable.

In addition, she also persuaded Chen Yan to stay in Shanzhou to accompany Little Lou’er, or to go to Lanzhou to live with Wu Meiniang, so she didn’t have to follow the army to Dafeichuan anymore. After all, this trip was likely to take him to the plateau. The climate there was not something that ordinary people could get used to. Moreover, it might take a long time for him to leave. Little Lou’er could not leave his mother for too long.

Chen Yan agreed very reasonably and naturally sent two “trusted aides” to “serve” him. Of course, they were the Tantai sisters, the female generals.

Qin Mubai finally settled a few business matters that he had been planning for a long time.

Since Li Ke, the prince, had come, it would be easier to trick the Huihe generals. Qin Mubai asked Li Ke to appease the Huihe generals and promised them many rewards. The Huihe people were overjoyed and almost knelt down to lick Li Ke’s toes.

Until then, When Qin Mubai escorted Tibet and Gao Changjiang to Chang’an, he had already played Li Shimin through Huang Ben memorial to ask him to help him round this lie-he wanted to trick these Huihe generals into going to Chang’an together and bribe them with official money, so that he could devour this army and strangle his vomiting heart in the cradle.

Li Shimin would definitely agree to such a request. Now that Li Ke, who represented the emperor, had come forward to express his stance, Qin Mubai was perfectly logical to “invite” these Huihe generals to Chang’an to receive the reward before the war began.

At the same time, it was very logical for Qin Mubai to dismantle the forty to fifty thousand Huihe elite cavalry and mix them into the Kansai army.

Li Ke said that after parting ways with Qin Mubai, Qin Mubai had truly become a demon after a hundred refinements. It was like killing without seeing blood, eating without spitting out bones, selling off other people and even letting others help him smile and count the money, he had already cultivated to the Transformation Realm.

However, there was one person that was extremely difficult to deal with, and that was Ah Shi Na’s Blood Lotus. Logically speaking, swallowing this Huihe army was equivalent to accepting their dowry. Qin Mubai was not shameless enough to kick the big girl out of the house just after stealing the dowry. But it was not as if the bridal candle was about to appear-the brutality of eating ginseng fruits like Pig Bajie had always been shameless to Qin Mubai.

Coupled with Li Ke’s constant encouragement from the side and the threat of violence from Blood Lotus using silence and alienation as a weapon, Qin Mubai could only … bring her to his side and continue to head to Dafeichuan as the commander of the Huihe army.

Li Ke said, “Don’t worry. As long as Commander Shi doesn’t impeach you, no one will say anything else, because they are used to it. You, Young Marshal Qin, have always been elegant. Whether it’s going up the mountain or rolling around on the ground, there must be women around you.”

Qin Mubai scolded him for his nonsense. Our Guanxi Army army has always had strict laws and regulations. There has never been anything like bringing a woman into the army or visiting a prostitute-Princess AshnaXuelian is the commander of the Huihe army, or a fierce general charging into the front lines. She is a talent that can be used for great purposes!

Li Ke laughed, “What about the twin girls from the Tantai family? They can’t be adulterers and spies, right?”

Qin Mubai rolled his eyes. Everyone knew that the Tantai sisters were Qiba from the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Tang Dynasty. They were the only female generals of the Hundred Cavalry that had been recognized by the Emperor and conferred the title by the Imperial Court. But now, this pair of female generals worthy of the name was really the “personal” maidservant Chen Yan had sent to “watch” Qin Mubai-the kind that was still very personal, able to close to a negative distance.

“A fake general with adultery; a general with adultery … Tsk tsk, in the Kansai army, there is indeed a huge pool of talents!” Li Ke laughed mockingly and shamelessly.

Qin Mubai was annoyed. He simply didn’t fear boiling hot water anymore. “I’m still the Three Great Britain Battle Lyu3 Bu. What’s wrong?-Are you jealous?”

Li Ke was hit by him, so angry that he gritted his teeth but was speechless, so he could only look up and sigh faintly, “You can’t slap a person in the face!”

“Oh, Your Highness, forgive me. I almost forgot that you’ve been a virgin for more than a month!” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “Don’t be anxious. After the war starts, you can choose all the Tibetan women captives. You probably don’t know that Tibetan women have a different style!”-All of them are as powerful and powerful as Yuwen Hongtai. They can definitely serve you … I’m sorry, it’s not that they want to die, but they can’t beg for death! ”

Li Ke’s expression turned petrified as he stared blankly at Qin Mubai. Suddenly, a strange and perverted smile appeared on his face.

“You, what do you want?”

“Didn’t you say that there are broken sleeves, split peaches, and the habit of Dragon Yang?” Li Ke grinned and said, “Rather than being humiliated by those wild boar-like women, I would rather be with a tender fellow like you …”

“Holy shit! You really can say it!!!” Qin Mubai was completely struck by lightning. His entire body became cold and his goosebumps rose up. He swung his horse whip and ran wildly.

“Haha! Fight me!” Li Ke laughed loudly.

The two of them were chatting nonsense. Qin Mubai’s guards, who had never been taboo, were all laughing loudly at this moment. Li Ke shouted at Qin Mubai’s back, “Qin Mubai, what are you running for?-Don’t panic, don’t panic, come back! Actually, this king likes peach blossoms just like you, not chrysanthemums!”

The sergeants burst into laughter again and said,

“What peach blossom, chrysanthemum? Which one did His Highness and Major Marshal say?”

“I don’t know. Anyway, I heard about the ‘Dragon Yang Addict’, haha!”

‘”So His Highness Prince King Wu is quite amusing and easygoing. He is not as arrogant and stern as the Prince in his imagination. No wonder Major Marshal and he are fated. The two of them are the same. They don’t have any airs. They are very easy to get along with!”

“Yes, yes!”

Li Ke staggered on his horse, the smile on his face lingering. Quan Wanji, who was riding his horse beside him, saw it and thought to himself, “It has been several years since King Wu smiled so easily, calmly and from the bottom of his heart.” To His Highness, the palace was a cage for concealing one’s strength, the imperial palace was a shackle that accompanied one like a shadow, and Liaodong was a execution ground that was bathed in fire and nirvana. “Now, he has finally escaped from the execution grounds, broken free from his cage, and removed his chains-Your Highness, Your Highness, you finally have a sky that belongs to you, ushering in the moment of soaring!”

Looking at Qin Mubai, who was whipping away at high speed, Quan Wanji revealed a smile like Li Ke and whispered to himself, “Your Highness, you must always remember-this sky in front of you, this moment was tailored for you.” No matter what achievements you have in the future, most of what you will reap will be thanks to him … A heroic king with ill-fated fortunes and a romantic figure with great abilities that is almost monstrous can actually cherish each other so well! –Could it be that all of this is the destiny of the heavens that has long been destined? ”

At the foot of the Kunlun Mountains, adjacent to the Yak River, in the Tang army camp.

Hou Junji lay on the bearskin mattress with his eyes closed and his fists clenched tightly. Beside him, a military doctor was using a golden needle and thread to sew up his cheekbone, which was several inches long.

Today, he had just led his troops to wipe out the last group of Tibetan tribes under the Kunlun Mountains. Although he had obtained a complete victory, he was accidentally injured and had his face slashed. Fortunately, he reacted at the last moment and dodged with the helmet protecting him. Otherwise, half of his head would have been cut off by this saber.

Even so, this blade was about to cut off half of his face. Even if he were to sew it up now, it would definitely leave behind a scar that would never heal, making his face look exceptionally ferocious.

Several generals stood beside him, staring worriedly at his face. Every time the golden needle thread in the military doctor’s hand moved, the faces of the generals twitched and their hearts trembled.

“Alright!” The military doctor felt relieved. “General, you can’t drink alcohol for a hundred days. You can’t get angry. Dress and change dressing every day. Remember,” he said.

“A hundred days?” Hou Junji sat up and tried to touch his face. It was swollen and numb, and his eyes were almost unable to open. He smiled indifferently, but that smile was even uglier than crying. He said, “Old rules, if we win today, the army will host a banquet. The generals will not return until they are drunk!”

“Uh, this!” The military doctor was dumbfounded, and the generals hurriedly threw him out.

“General, what should we do next?” The generals asked.

Hou Junji casually sat cross-legged and pondered for a moment before saying, “I want to issue the last military order.”

The faces of the generals changed as they cupped their fists and said, “General, please give the order!”

“Three days later, the whole army is advancing towards Qiangtang. The target is the source of the Yak River, which is adjacent to Sun Bo. There is a Tibetan tribe there. It is equivalent to Luoyang in the Great Tang Dynasty. It is an accompanying capital and the last military barrier in front of Luoxi City.” Hou Junji paused for a moment before narrowing his eyes to reveal a murderous aura. His tone also sank a bit, “That tribe’s surname is called–Gar!”

“Garr Tribe? Gaer Qinling’s territory?” The generals were all shocked.

“What? Are you afraid?” Hou Junji sneered, “Don’t panic, this general’s order hasn’t been issued yet. Within three days, you must pick out all the wounded and sick people in the army, pick out all the only children who have joined the army or have no children, and pick out all those who … are unwilling to follow me on the path of death!”

“General, this is …” The crowd was puzzled, but also a little worried. Along the way, everything that Hou Junji did seemed to have little to do with “benevolence and righteousness” or even “humanity”-could it be that he wanted to kill his own brothers at the last moment?

Hou Junji’s eyelids dropped, and he took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, “Give them all the gold and silver treasures and women, and let them … leave!”

“!!!” The generals all exclaimed in amazement!

They stared fixedly at Hou Junji, as if at this moment, they did not recognize the commander who had already transformed into a devil.

“What are you looking at? Do you doubt this general’s order?” Hou Junji shouted.

‘”No” The generals hesitated for a moment, but someone said, “General, please forgive me for speaking frankly. In this world, who is truly not afraid of death? How can you not leave if you give money and women like this? At that time … I really don’t know how many people will be left.”

“Heh, it doesn’t matter anymore!” Hou Junji patted his legs and smiled, “Even if only I, Hou Junji, am left, I will run to the Garr Tribe and fight that bastard!”

The generals looked at each other, speechless.

Hou Junji stood up and walked to their side, saying, “Along the way, I have killed a lot of people, some of whom should be killed and some of whom should not be killed, all of whom have been killed.” But I haven’t been completely unscrupulous. Now, it was time to split life and death. Every soldier in the army, regardless of whether I have gratitude or hatred for you, whether you have feelings for me or hate me, I have no reason to let all of you die with me. ”

No one spoke. Everyone quietly looked at Hou Junji, their expressions filled with emotions.

“I know that you have some misgivings in your hearts. You have violated the military law under the orders of a certain Marquis, violated the military rules, and committed some wrongdoings. However, there is a person who owes you a debt. You cannot help but blame you.” Hou Junji continued, “Also, your true Commander-in-Chief is a reasonable person, and he is also … a person who loves the short and is the best at protecting the short. As long as you go back, he will do everything he can to keep you safe.”

The crowd remained silent, and many people lowered their heads silently.

“General Hou, you’re driving us away!” Suddenly, someone shouted.

‘”Major Marshal is indeed righteous and treats us very well, but since we sold our lives to General Hou and followed him all the way here, we have already drawn our bows and lost our arrows. There is no reason or face to scram back to see Major Marshal!”

Seeing the crowd’s emotions about to erupt into a loud quarrel, Hou Junji raised his hand and said, “All of you, come back and talk to me after thinking it over!”

The generals instantly shut their mouths and looked at him with different expressions.

“Scram!” Hou Junji roared angrily.

The generals were silent as they retreated.

Everyone’s gone. Hou Junji slowly sat down on the bearskin mattress that once belonged to Great General Tibetan Canine Ru. He picked up a cup of pure white milk wine filled with sandalwood purple gold bottles and drank it all in one gulp.

He struggled to throw the cup to the ground, pointing at his scarred armor and cursing–

“You despicable life! You’ve been alone all your life, and there’s only one person left until you die!”
