Volume 16 Iron Horses Stepping on Snow to Take Hebei Chapter 59 Brothers against each other

Luo Shixin's injury caused a slight riot in the Sui army, but with the arrival of Pei Xingyan's cavalry, the Qilipo Xia army collapsed and someone had already opened the south gate. Twenty thousand Xia soldiers flocked to flee, rushing down the hill and running around in the wilderness to run and run around.

The Sui army chased and killed them all the way. It was not until Dou Jiande sent general Cao Zhan to lead 20,000 troops to support that the Sui army slowly retreated and occupied Qilipo.

In the big tent, a military doctor pulled out an arrow from Luo Shixin's arm with pliers, and a piece of flesh was hooked out, making Luo Shixin tremble all over his body.

While applying medicine to him, the military doctor smiled and said, "This arrow shot extremely accurately and shot through the gap between the shoulder porch and arm porch. However, it may be because of the distance. It is not very powerful, and it does not hurt the bones or poison. It can be cured after resting for half a month."

Seeing that a female guard next to him was about to take away the arrow, Luo Shixin hurriedly said, "Leave the arrow!"

He took the arrow from the female guard, but unexpectedly found words engraved on the arrow shaft. He was slightly stunned and looked closer and carefully, and there were three words engraved: "Dou Shinniang".

‘Is that female general’s surname ‘Dou’?’ Luo Shixin thought to himself, ‘I wonder what her relationship with Dou Jiande is?’

No trace of her was found in the prisoners of war or the enemy's corpse. She must have escaped. Luo Shixin secretly hated that he was actually injured by a woman. In any case, he could not let others know about this.

Luo Shixin was most worried that he would lose the opportunity to go to the battlefield, so he hurriedly said to the military doctor: "Doctor Li, this arrow is only a little bit of flesh. How can I rest for more than ten days, two or three days?"

The military doctor understood his thoughts and smiled slightly: "The key is that this arrow is not poisonous, nor does it hurt the muscles and bones, and it will not form arrow sores. It is still too short for two or three days, at least ten days."

"General. The general is here!" The personal soldiers' report came from outside the tent.

Luo Shixin quickly put the arrow aside and whispered to the military doctor: "Don't say it for more than ten days!"

The military doctor smiled bitterly and shook his head. When the curtain was lifted, Yang Yuanqing walked in.

"It seems to look pretty good!" Yang Yuanqing looked at him carefully and said with a smile.

The military doctor next to him smiled and said, "There is not much blood loss, and General Luo is strong in his body, so there is no big problem."

Luo Shixin was grateful to the military doctor. He shook his arm and said proudly: "The arrow only hurts the flesh and blood, and a little bit of injury is like a mosquito bite. The military doctor said that it will take two or three days to recuperate."

The military doctor next to him turned pale. When did he say that he could take two or three days of rest? He didn't dare to stay there. He vaguely said that he needed to take a few days of rest and then left.

How could Yang Yuanqing believe Luo Shixin's words? How could it take only two or three days, even if the most ordinary arrow wound is injured, it will take half a month to recuperate?

"You kid, don't show off your power. I know it. This time you win Qilipo, I will remember your first merit. Don't compete with others for me again. Leave the opportunity to others and take good care of them. Don't make hidden injuries to your arms. You should understand what I mean."

Yang Yuanqing is Luo Shixin's senior brother. Luo Shixin dared not ignore his words. Moreover, the martial arts of the two are in line with each other. Yang Yuanqing is very clear about Zhang Xutuo's thirteen sword techniques. The key is to use power. If the arm is injured, the subtleties of power cannot be exerted.

Luo Shixin also understood this point, and he also had a little worry in his heart. He lowered his head and did not dare to argue again.

Yang Yuanqing patted his shoulder gently and said earnestly: "Leave more energy to deal with Li Mi, that is your real enemy."

Luo Shixin nodded silently, Yang Yuanqing remembered something again and said with a smile: "I received a letter from my family yesterday. The princess said she wanted to introduce you to a marriage. She is the daughter of Taichang Shaoqing Xueshou. She is only seventeen years old, she is well-educated and well-known, and she is both talented and beautiful. How about it? Let's go back and see you?"

Luo Shixin shook his head, "A talented man is worthy of a beautiful woman. I am not a talented man and it is not suitable for her. Please tell the princess to thank her for her kindness. I don't want to consider it for the time being."

"You should think about it. You are twenty-four years old. You can't always live in memories. A real man cannot have a wife. Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your deceased father and grandfather, and continue the cigarette for the Luo family."

Luo Shixin lowered his head and said for a while: "Let me think about it again!"

"Okay! I'll wait for your news, but you can't delay it. Even if you don't agree, you have to say it earlier and don't delay others."

Yang Yuanqing gave a few more instructions and turned around and went out. As soon as Yang Yuanqing left, Cheng Yaojin sneaked in.

"Boy, I heard that you have lost your luck in love with love?" Cheng Yaojin smiled with an ambiguous face.

"What are you talking nonsense, what kind of love luck!"

Luo Shixin said angrily: "You think I am like you, I have a wife at home and I still go shopping in brothels all day long. If you leave a woman, you won't be able to survive."

"Go! I'll say one word and you'll have ten words."

Cheng Yaojin used to have a very good relationship with Luo Shixin in Licheng County. Every time Cheng Yaojin was punished by Zhang Xutuo, Luo Shixin would plead for mercy. Although Cheng Yaojin had a good reputation, he and Luo Shixin had a real friendship.

Cheng Yaojin blinked and smiled and said, "I heard that you were actually shot by a woman. The first time in your life, it was actually a woman's hand. It was really interesting."

Luo Shixin was shocked. He hid this matter very strictly, and even Pei Xingyan didn't know. How could Cheng Yaojin know?

"Who did you listen to? How could a woman be shot on the battlefield? It's so funny!"

"You kid still wants to hide it from me, what is your personal soldiers' relationship with me?"

Cheng Yaojin curled his lips and glanced at him. He saw the arrow on the table. His eyes were very poisonous. At first glance, he saw words engraved on the arrow shaft. He reached out to take the arrow and looked at it. He laughed, "Dou Xianniang, it's probably Dou Jiande's daughter! He can shoot arrows for hundreds of steps. This woman is not simple!"

Luo Shixin couldn't hold back his face, and was a little angry and snatched the arrow, "Go out! Go out! You are not welcome here."

Cheng Yaojin held his hands behind his back and looked at the top of the tent, "Okay! I'll go chatting with someone. You know my big mouth. Maybe everyone will come to sympathize with you tonight."

After saying that, he turned around and left, but he glanced at Luo Shixin from the corner of his eyes. Luo Shixin had no choice but to give in, "Okay! I admit that it was a woman who ejaculated, so I beg my fourth brother to keep it a secret for me."

Among the generals under Zhang Xutuo, Qin Qiong was the first general, Jia Wu was the second general, Niu Jinda was the third general, and Cheng Yaojin ranked fourth, so Luo Shixin kept calling him the fourth brother.

Cheng Yaojin suddenly turned around and smiled, "Oh my! Being hurt by a woman is not good for the passing of time! You have to lose money to avoid disasters, don't you think?"

Luo Shixin understood what he meant, so he could only sigh and stretch out five fingers, "Five hundred taels of silver, please shut up your mouth for this."

Cheng Yaojin smiled sly, "Where is your reputation worth five hundred taels, at least eight hundred taels."

Luo Shixin said angrily: "It's only five hundred taels. If you dare to ask for an extra penny, I will tell my sister-in-law about your visit to the brothel."

"Why are you, no matter how you don't care about your brotherly relationship? OK! Five hundred is five hundred."

Cheng Yaojin smiled and took out a red cloth and handed it to him, "This is what I prepared for you."

Luo Shixin was startled, "What is this to do?"

Cheng Yaojin widened his eyes and looked at Luo Shixin incredibly, as if Luo Shixin was a new young soldier just joined the army. He sighed, "It's not a good thing to be injured by a woman. It will take at least one year to tie it around his waist. This is the rule on the battlefield. Do you actually don't know?"

Luo Shixin had never heard of such a thing, but he was uncomfortable with Cheng Yaojin's exaggerated gaze, and he took Xin over Hongbu, "Is there really such a statement?"

Cheng Yaojin curled his lips disdainfully, "You boy don't understand! No one can tell you this kind of thing, but everyone knows in their hearts that the old man has passed down. You listen to me about this matter, tie it with meat, and you can't take any other except taking a bath. It will take at least one year to get rid of bad luck."

"I get it, you go!"

Cheng Yaojin blackmailed five hundred taels of silver and left with satisfaction. Luo Shixin sat there with a red cloth strip for a while, smiled bitterly and shook his head aside, but his hand accidentally touched the arrow. He picked it up and looked at it carefully again.

The three words "Dou Shin Niang" on the arrow shaft were particularly clear, and the impression of the woman appeared in his mind again. The eyes full of murderous intent and extremely bright were so bright that he could not forget, as if a deep trace was engraved in his heart.

.........

In the big tent, as soon as Yang Yuanqing connected to two emergency reports, Li Shimin led 100,000 Tang troops from Shangluo County to Wu Pass and launched an attack on Zhu Jie, Nanyang.

The second express is the urgent request for help from Xiao Xian. Zhu Jie from Nanyang was defeated by the Tang army in the battle. Zhu Jie fled to Li Mi. Li Shimin's army did not stop and continued to march towards Xiangyang. Large-scale army mobilization occurred in Bashu. The army of Xiliang Kingdom was restrained by Lin Shihong's army in Yuzhang County and was unable to fight on both sides, begging for assistance from the Sui Dynasty.

"It's true that it's not as expected by the headmaster!"

Li Jing sighed, "The Tang Dynasty seized the opportunity to be restrained in Hebei and attacked the south. If what I expected was correct, the Tang army would also send troops to Yiling and attack in two groups. Xiao Xian is really dangerous now."

These two information made Yang Yuanqing feel a little heavy. He walked a few steps in the tent with his hands behind his back. Now the Sui army is confronting Dou Jiande's army and cannot support Xiao Xian.

Yang Yuanqing was helpless, "I hope Xiao Xian can hold on for a month, maybe I can still support him. If he can't hold on, I can't help either."

Li Jing pondered for a moment and said, "I guess they will be unable to support it in one month. Although Xiao Xian is known as a 400,000 army, their monarch and ministers are suspicious and have a strong internal struggle. At most, half a month. However, with the navy army coming to protect the other, I guess Xiao Xian may not completely destroy the country and can still maintain some strength."

"Forget it, don't disrupt our plan for Xiao Xian's incident. We will still attack Dou Jiande according to the original plan."

Yang Yuanqing walked to the sand table, picked up the wooden pole and pointed to the Yongji channel: "Now the ships that Xu Shiji's army were on were probably within Wei County, then Wuyang County, Qinghe County, Pingyuan County, and finally arrived in Zhangnan County, which would take about eight days."

"What the general manager means is to let Xu Shiji capture Zhangnan County first?"

Yang Yuanqing nodded, "Zhangnan County is Dou Jiande's old nest, and there are 30,000 troops there. As long as Xu Shiji occupied Zhangnan County, Dou Jiande's military morale will begin to collapse. We can win this battle at the lowest cost and preserve the people's strength in Hebei."
