But was pulled.

Ning Qing murmured: "Dare to go and try."

In the darkness, Wei Yao froze for a moment, not knowing whether he was really sleepy or just pretending, but at this moment there was no sound.Wei Yao hesitated for a moment, then lay back on the couch, clenched his hand, turned over, and hugged Ning Qing in his arms through the quilt.

The next day, the sky was cloudless.

It was almost noon when Ning woke up. After washing, he was about to leave the camp to find something to eat to fill his stomach that had been empty all night. Seeing that Wei Yao came in with a plate, he was a little surprised: "Why are you still here?"

"The follow-up troops have arrived, Zhao Min and Tian Cheng are in charge, there is no rush for other things." Wei Yao put it on the table and looked at him, "What are you doing here, come over for dinner."

Ning Qing sat down in a daze, looked at the food in front of him still puzzled, looked up at him hesitantly: "Why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?"

Wei Yao smiled brightly: "I have always been like this."

...Either he is crazy or Wei Yao is crazy.

After dinner, Ning Qing thought of Fei Tian, ​​and asked about him, Wei Yao said, "He fell asleep as soon as he arrived at the camp, and he couldn't wake up for only two hours."

It seemed that Fei Tian was fine, but he was tired. Ning Qing no longer cared about him, but remembered the business: "Jiazhou is now occupied by the Nanman, and the enemy army is very large. What are you going to do?"

Wei Yao turned his head and thought for a while, "The artillery of the Southern Barbarian Army is a problem, but there are only twenty of them. Even if it is a magic weapon, it is not unstoppable by manpower. The generation of the Southern Barbarian Kings alone is not enough evidence, but Dongyi King Mu Jing, Depending on the friendship with the former king of the Nanman, it may not be possible to help the Nanman when it is at the end of the road."

indeed so.Ning Qing suddenly remembered that Tao Ji had mentioned to him before that the former king of the Nanman passed away suddenly. I'm afraid there might be some differences.

Ning Qing asked: "I heard that the former king of Nanman passed away suddenly in his prime of life. He was a man. How could he pass the throne to such a nonsense son."

Wei Yao was a little surprised when he heard the words, and asked: "Now the Nanman king was born as a son, and the former king passed away suddenly, and it makes sense for the son to succeed him. Why, do you think the death of the Nanman former king is suspicious?"

"It's suspicion, but there is no evidence." Ning Qing seemed to have thought of some good idea, the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously, and he asked, "Zhaozhuo, can you get back Jiazhou?"

"Recently, I thought of a way. What do you want to do?"

As soon as Ning Qing rolled his eyes, he seemed to hold back a bad idea, and smiled lightly as if his chest was full.

...

Three days later at night, the 11 troops of Wei's army were divided into four groups, some of them were restrained outside the city, some of them crossed Ziyang Mountain to raid the Nanman army's granary in Jiazhou, and the other two circled and outflanked, crossed Xuanyu Pass, and caught the Nanman army by surprise. .The troops of the Southern Barbarian Army were scattered, and the troops inside and outside the city lacked capable generals.

After the Wei army settled the troops in the rear, they went directly to the outside of the city from various places in the city. Although the [-] southern barbarians outside the city had Beidi's artillery, they were defeated by the disparate force. Surrendered, the southern barbarian general Qian Yue and other five were captured.At this point, Jiazhou was taken back, and the whole country celebrated together. After this battle, the people of Jiazhou all worshiped Wei Yao, and even called him the God of War.Emperor Xiangfeng's dragon heart was overjoyed, rewarded Wei Yao with ten thousand taels of gold, and presented five other courtyards of the manor.

On the day when Jiazhou was taken back, the soldiers below made a lot of noise, and Wei Yao had a drink with them before slipping away. He and Ning Qing climbed to Xuanyu Pass. There are large and small graves among them, and countless empty tombs, all of which are the tombs of soldiers who died in Xuanyu Pass.

Wei Yao took a bottle of wine and went to a tomb. The simple wooden sign read "Tomb of Weiyuan General Cao Xu".Wei Yao took out a small cup and poured a glass of wine, and sprinkled the rest on the loess in front of the tomb.

"In the past, you loved the fine wine from Northern Xinjiang the most. Let's make do with this wine today, and I will pay you back double in the future."

Ning Qing silently walked to his side, looked at the tombstone, and said to him: "The people below are going crazy, Zhao Min is looking for you everywhere."

Wei Yao responded, stood up and said, "Let's go."

After walking a few steps, he realized that Ning Qing hadn't followed him. He turned to look at him with doubts in his eyes. Ning Qing smiled and said, "I drank a little too much. Let's blow some air at a high place. You should go first."

Wei Yao looked at him, nodded, then turned and left.

After seeing Wei Yao's figure, Ning Qing looked at the tombstone and said softly: "I don't know that the last farewell was forever, I have nothing else to say, only one thing, your general, I will definitely accompany you, call He was no longer alone."

...

Qian Yue and other prisoners of war had been escorted to God's Capital the day after the victory, and the remaining troops should return to their original places in a few days after being repaired.

Although King Dongyi didn't intervene during the battle, he was against Nanman after all. A few days after Nanman's defeat, Mu Jing came to Jiazhou in person, and the two met in the government office of Jiazhou.

Wei Yao was wearing a black pattern brocade robe, his hair was half tied up, and he didn't look like a martial artist with his head down drinking tea. It was also the first time Mu Jing saw him, and he often heard his name, but he didn't think the real person was such a handsome young man.

Mu Jing came here with a clear intention: "Sun Yin raided Xuanyu Pass for no reason. He was to blame for the defeat. It is up to him how to deal with the prisoners of war. There is only one thing, Wei Yao, you are a smart person. You are very clear about the current situation of the four forces. See Just accept it, this matter is over like this, I will persuade Sun Yin to make an apology to you Emperor Wei, and I will not treat you badly in terms of etiquette."

Wei Yao didn't reply, and Mu Jing frowned, not wanting to lose face.Ning Qing, who hadn't spoken since Mu Jing came in, broke the deadlock.

"The King of Dongyi has worked so hard for the King of the Nanman, which is admirable. I'm just curious about what kind of person the King of the Nanman, Sun Yin, is. Everyone knows it well. Why do you protect him so much?"

There was a hint of smile in Ning Qing's words, which was a bit harsh to Mu Jing's ears, but he still replied: "Who is Sun Yin? Of course you can see it, but you should also know the friendship between Gu and his father." , the best friend has passed away, and the successor he left behind cannot ignore it."

Ning Qing nodded in deep agreement: "It is admirable that the king of Dongyi is so affectionate. I just heard that the former king of the Nanman passed away suddenly and did not leave a will. As usual, he let the son succeed him. But now that the king of the Nanman is like this, the former king can Don’t you know? The previous kings put people’s livelihood first in everything, and I’ve heard it all in Yanzhou, may I ask if the previous king who loved the people like a son would hand over Nanman to such a son?”

Mu Jing was furious, stood up and pointed: "What do you mean!"

Ning Qing smiled: "King Dongyi calm down, I just heard that the late king had a second son who was well-educated and well-known."

Mu Jing's overwhelming anger subsided in an instant, he paused, and sneered, "It's really powerful, it seems that he is well versed in the art of alienation."

Ning Qing said: "Wang Dongyi thinks deeply, we will stay in Jiazhou for a few more days, if you are interested, just send someone to send a letter."

Mu Jing stopped for a step, and left without looking back.When Ning Qing turned around, he saw Wei Yao staring at him, his eyes were indescribably subtle, and he didn't know why, but he always felt a little worried, and asked, "Why are you looking at me like this?"

"No, I just think you are really eloquent." Wei Yao had that half-smile again, "Do you think King Dongyi will agree?"

Ning Qing said with a smile: "Yes, I guess he had this idea in the first place, but I provoked him today. If you go back and think about it, the doubts in your heart will naturally resurface."
