Chapter 62: But let the Daxia man be there, not teach Huma to ride this mountain
Changling County is as quiet as usual. On the bluestone street, there are gradually a thick layer of snow. Occasionally, some footprints are slowly covered by falling snow. The city is full of wind and snow, but the south city is silent.
There was only a crisp sound in an inn. It was Ma Zhibai who threw a book and patted it, which surprised the rest of the people. They all looked at him. After a while, his book Tong San slowly spoke, "Young Master, what big thing is going to happen?"
Ma Zhibai pressed his palm on the table, glanced at the inn, and said, "There are more than 10,000 soldiers in Beimo, but Lord Gu only has some county soldiers. How can he resist it? Not to mention the small number of county soldiers, even the combat power is not the same as the enemy of the Beimo army."
"Ah," Sancai said in shock: "What should I do?"
"I don't know," Ma Zhibai said simply: "I can't think of any other way in this situation. Only by going to Weicheng to invite troops, only if the Weicheng army comes over can we have the hope of blocking the Beimo army."
Sancai's eyes lit up, he suddenly stood up and said excitedly: "Young Master, are you going to Weicheng to recruit soldiers?"
Ma Zhibai nodded.
Sancai was eager to try, but was about to speak, but was interrupted by Uncle Dong. Uncle Dong frowned and said, "Young master, it shouldn't be necessary. I think Mr. Gu has already prepared for a long time and must have sent someone. You don't need to take risks. Since Beimo dared to attack Changling County, I think he has made a complete plan. On the way to Weicheng, a net of heaven and earth must have been laid."
"No," Ma Zhibai looked out the window and sighed, "According to Master Gu's talent, I must know to go to Weicheng to invite soldiers. However, Uncle Dong, you don't know that it is not that simple to send troops in Weicheng. You will only send troops after confirmation from multiple parties. If you wait until they arrive, Master Gu will definitely be unable to resist it and it is too late."
"But the young master..."
Uncle Dong was about to say something, but was interrupted by Ma Zhibai and said, "Uncle Dong, I know what you want to say, but I am sure to invite soldiers. General Shangguan from Weicheng is my father's best friend. If I go to invite soldiers, he will definitely send soldiers as soon as possible."
Uncle Dong was stunned for a moment, a strange look flashed in his eyes, he took back the words from his mouth, and then said, "Young Master, come with me, I have something to explain to you."
Ma Zhibai looked at Uncle Dong, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He looked at Sancai and others, nodded, and followed Uncle Dong to another room.
When Ma Zhibai entered the house, Uncle Dong poked his head out and looked at it, then quietly closed the door. Seeing Uncle Dong's behavior, Ma Zhibai became more confused and asked, "Uncle Dong, what do you want to say?"
Uncle Dong walked to Ma Zhibai and whispered: "Young Master, don't you wonder why Lord Zhang Zhihuan transferred you to Changling County? You thought Gu Qingci was inaction before, so Lord Zhang sent you here, but now you know that Gu Qingci is not such a person, but a very talented person, and has even cleared Changling County."
Ma Zhibai frowned, thought carefully, nodded, and said, "I am indeed a little confused. When the war is pacified, I am also going to go to Langya County to ask. Lord Gu has done much better than mine."
Uncle Dong shook his head and said, "Young Master, why don't you understand? This is Mr. Zhang who has given you credit. As long as you stay here, Gu Qingci's achievements are all yours. Think about it, with Gu Qingci's achievements, you will definitely have a bright future in the future!"
Ma Zhibai's heart was thrilled, and he looked at Uncle Dong in shock, slapped the table hard, stood up, and said angrily: "Uncle Dong, how can you say this? I, Ma Zhibai, have been reading the books of sages since I was a child, and how can I do such dirty things? I admire Lord Gu very much and will never be such a despicable person."
"Young Master," Uncle Dong advised: "This is obviously a good opportunity. Now Gu Qingci leads his troops to the enemy. As long as he dies on the battlefield, this kind of credit will be picked up for nothing. The villain knows that you are kind and cannot bear to see the people suffer. But don't worry, if Beimo really attacks Changling County, I personally take action to assassinate the general of Beimo. I think Beimo is just a grass valley, and there will be no master. I am a great practitioner and I am more than enough to deal with them. So, young master, you only need to let Gu Qingci die now..."
"Stop!" Ma Zhibai gritted his teeth, his eyes were cold, his tone was like ice, and he said, "Uncle Dong, I am thinking about the master and servant. You are also watching me grow up. I pretend that I have not heard these words today. There must be no next time. I, Ma Zhibai, is upright all my life, why should I do this!"
Ma Zhibai glared at Uncle Dong, stood up and walked out the door. After walking two steps, he stopped again, turned his back to Uncle Dong, and said coldly: "I'll go and make a decision. Even if it's a sea of swords and fire, I'll go there too. In addition... I don't think you are suitable to follow me anymore. After returning to Beijing, you should stop following me!"
Uncle Dong slowly raised his waxy face, his eyes moved, he gritted his teeth, and whispered: "I'm sorry, young master!"
"What did you say..."
Before Ma Zhi's words were finished, his head suddenly became confused and fell down. He was just supported by Uncle Dong and slowly helped him to the bed. After putting Ma Zhibai down, Uncle Dong said slowly: "Young master, the villain knows that you are a stern, but I am a servant. I want to consider your future. Even if you hate me in the future, I must do this."
Uncle Dong slowly walked out the door, touched the big knife on his back, looked to the north, and muttered: "Gu Qingci, although you are a good official, you are hindering my young master. You... must die!"
In the wind and snow, there was a knife-carrying man heading towards Qiling Post. In the vast snowflakes, what he carried was not a knife, but a debt, the debt owed by his servant!
...
Qiling Post, the white twilight, the white vision, and the white snowflakes are whistling. In this world covered with silver, everything seems so quiet, Gu Qingci and Ma Shilian are watching face to face.
In Gu Qingci's eyes like a knife, Ma Shilian still looked at each other firmly. His determination was already firm, and even if Gu Qingci objected, it would be useless.
Finally, Gu Qingci sighed without saying a word, and rode his horse around and rushed towards the city gate, rolling up a large amount of wind and snow, melting him into the snow. In the hazy, the wind and snow were mixed together, and suddenly I remembered Gu Qingci's voice, and every word was deeply engraved in everyone's heart:
"The bright moon in ancient times is now the pass,
The blood sprinkled in Changling has not returned.
But let the Daxia men be there,
Don’t teach Hu Ma to cross this mountain!
Dear soldiers, for the sake of our family and the country, we will never regret it!”
Ma Shilian behind him was shocked and whispered carefully, "But let the man in Daxia be there, he won't teach Hu horses to cross this mountain." Then he laughed, rode his horse to chase him, and shouted loudly: "Defend the country and never regret it if you die!"
Ma Shilian is an ordinary person. He has no internal strength and is not as powerful as Gu Qingci shouts. However, his hysteria is more contagious. He rode his horse wildly and left with his sword without any hesitation. He put his determination in that sentence:
"I will never regret it if I die!"
