Devil’s Advent

Xie Zhuyang sat on the top of the city gate and drank tea. What he drank was the favorite of Prince Pingxi of Yan Guo.

The head of the Xie family is one of the four major kingdoms. Although his family is not the four great nobles of Chu, but in terms of foundation and accumulation, it is only higher than other great nobles.

Without him, keep a low profile.

A Patriarch who dared to call His Majesty the Great Chu Emperor Xiong Lao Si, who was about to rebel against the Xiong family the year before last, was by no means out of his mind, but had the confidence.

In fact, the Xie family is not far from the Helian family in Chu. The Helian family also has the blood of savages. It is said that they were the first savage generals who served under his tent when the Marquis of Jin drove out the savages. Although the ancestors of the Xie family were not from Shanyue However, as the first nobles entrusted to southern Xinjiang, the Xie family intermarried and assimilated with the local Shanyue people very early;

At the beginning, Xiong Tingshan, the fifth prince of Great Chu, almost became a heretic because he married a Shanyue woman, but the Xie family had done such things hundreds of years ago.

The Shanyue tribe in Wutong County has always resisted fiercely, and this is how Xiong Tingshan made his fortune. However, the position of the Xie family and its borders are much more peaceful, because the local Chu people think that the Xie family is their own, and the Shanyue people He also thinks Xie is one of his own.

After the emperor of Chu succeeded to the throne, he lifted a series of restrictions on the Shanyue people, hoping to absorb the power of the Shanyue people for the Chu court. In fact, the Xie family has been doing this secretly for a long time.

Thinking back when Qu Tiannan sent off the main force of the Qingluan Army in Yupan City, the Qu family was able to immediately organize another Qingluan Army at home and let the young master Qu Peiluo continue to send it. This kind of inheritance can be seen How terrifying is the accumulation of nobles for hundreds of years.

Of course, there is one more thing, if Prince Pingxi stands here and watches Xie Zhuguo drink a cup of Daze Xiangtong with energy, he will have a deeper understanding of Xie's background;

The fuck is it because he drank too much and developed drug resistance!

When dad drinks tea,

As a son, lie down and take medicine.

"Father, it's good that you are here."

"Why?"

"At Nanguan, my son is not at ease. My Dachu has already folded three pillar kingdoms in the hands of King Pingxi. I am afraid that you will also fold it, just to make a table of bamboo cards."

Xie Zhuyang nodded, and said: "Yes, father is also afraid, some things are so evil, father thought, if that King Pingxi is really destined, then father will come forward, why not let others Have you delivered it to the table?"

"It's better to be here." Xie Yu'an said.

"Father only brought 20,000 soldiers, and the rest are still looking after the house."

"It's enough, it's up to you this time, let Da Chu play the side drum."

"A dry man is reliable, a sow can climb a tree."

"It's true that the pigs are annoyed when they run all over the mountain, but when the pigs are obediently in the pigsty, they are quite obedient."

At this moment, a personal guard came in and reported:

"Patriarch, young master, the beacon fire has sent a message from the front, and the Yan army has arrived at Shisui Castle!"

Xie Zhuyang nodded, stood up, and was about to step out, hesitated for a moment, looked at his son, and said:

"How about, together?"

"Well, I thought you called me up to find an excuse to keep me safe."

"You think too much about your father, why don't you bring Qianliju with you?

Moreover,

If you are unreliable, and you are directly rolled down by the Yan people, the world of Liang State may be overthrown, and you will be able to easily take you back to Chu State with you by your side. "

"well."

Xie Yu'an sighed and got out of bed.

Before leaving, he took the two oranges on the coffee table.

...

"Man, is it you who shouted?"

Standing on the tower, Xie Zhuyang asked his son.

"yes."

Xie Yu'an put his hands on the battlements, he didn't know it, he thought he was watching the enemy from the north anxiously, but the guards knew that it was the young master's ass that couldn't touch the stool now.

"How did you expect him to come?"

From the past few years, Xie Zhuyang has become used to asking his son about things he doesn't understand, and he will probably listen to his son's advice. The two times he didn't intend to listen, he was forced by his son with a knife Changed it back.

"Eager for meritorious service, with just these four words, the Nanmenguan commander of the Yan Kingdom was able to climb from a small person to the present position because he wanted to climb up, and today, his fate is also because he wanted too much." climb up.

Success and failure. "

Xie Zhuyang nodded, and said:

"After going to the Weihe River, my father once read the military's information about the last time King Pingxi of Yan State drove straight into Fancheng. When Nian Yao was there, his commander had developed a habit of reviewing every battle his opponent fought. Disk, it's okay, I picked up a leak for my father.

When King Pingxi led his army into our Great Chu, the vanguard was the key. "

After all, the leader of the Vanguard Army at that time was the Savage King.

"The vanguard leads the way, the battlefield is covered, marching fast, there is still a servant army at Zhennan Pass, and they can also serve as backup in times of crisis.

Looking at the Nanmenguan Commander-in-Chief again, according to the military newspaper, he didn't do what he was supposed to do, he just focused on leading a lone army to the capital of Daliang. "

After King Jingnan left, King Pingxi undoubtedly became the main research object of the generals of other countries. Moreover, the last battle of Fancheng was not far away, and there were too many places to ruminate.

For Xie Zhuyang, after reminiscing about the handwriting of King Pingxi's leading troops, and then looking at the upcoming Ran Min, although they are all Yan people's generals, the gap is really too big for people to get used to.

Xie Yu'an said:

"You are reviewing after the fact, and you think that Ran Min is already a soft-shelled turtle. Although my son thinks so too, if we look at it from the perspective of that Zongbing Ran, in fact, he did not do well. Miscalculate.

Prince Pingxi was in our Chu land when he marched, and the military castles and counties are densely populated, and they are all from our Chu;

During the march of General Ran, there were soldiers and civilians of Liang State. To the people of Yan, Liang State was their vassal state. Marching in Liang did not feel like marching in a foreign country.

Furthermore,

What Zongbing Ran received was my forged request for help from the lord. The people of Yan don't even look down on me, so how can they look down on Liang Guo?

Moreover, when the political situation changes, people's hearts are often the most fluctuating at the beginning, and there is the most opportunity to take advantage of it, and it is the most suitable to intervene.

Ran Min leads the way, as long as he can reach the capital in time;

If the lord had quelled the rebellion, he would also be able to take advantage of the situation and lead his army into the capital of Liang State, imitating the old story of Prince Pingxi, and insert the black dragon flag of the Yan people into the heart of Liang State.

If the lord is still in a stalemate with the rebels, he can play the role of the divine soldier descending from the sky, and make a great contribution to order the world of Liang Kingdom in one fell swoop.

If the ruler has just lost, the rebel has just come to power, and when the hearts of the people are unstable, Ran Min comes, and with the help of the tiger skin of the Yan Kingdom, he can also turn the overturned Liang Kingdom's sky back, this is true. Recreate the universe.

Therefore, he is really not 'advancing forward underestimated', but in his position, the best choice. "

"But you still guessed it right?" Xie Zhuyang looked at his son and said.

Because, when Ran Min received the distress letter, the coup d'état against the Lord of Liang had not yet happened. His son, it can be said that he made a decision before moving, and was very at ease.

"I only dare to guess him. If the opposite is King Pingxi of Yan Kingdom, I dare not guess, because guessing is useless."

"Snapped!"

Xie Zhuyang slapped his son on the back of the head.

"Your mother can't, auntie can."

Xie Zhuyang took a deep breath and said, "Father, can we stop doing this, so many people are watching?"

Xie Zhuyang looked around, and all the guards lowered their heads.

"Come on, let's talk about it, if it's that King Pingxi, what would he do?" Xie Zhuyang urged.

"King Pingxi is not in a hurry, he will mobilize a few groups of soldiers and horses to lead the way, call on the rest of the kingdoms to cooperate, and then act as his own king, slowly oppressing them step by step.

There is no need to fight, Liang Guo will immediately submit to himself, and at the same time, he can announce to Wei, Zhao, and Qi who is the real suzerain state.

The difference is that,

The name is different, the prestige is different, and the other is that, in Ran Min's view, meritorious deeds worth fighting for at all costs, in the view of Prince Pingxi, it is not worth mentioning at all.

You have to use bait for fishing. I have prepared bait for Ran Min, but I can't prepare the bait that can make that Prince Pingxi take the bait. "

"Alas." Xie Zhuyang also sighed, and said, "Only after going to the Weihe River did I realize that many people from our Chu land have already secretly fled to Jin."

"We have to win, we have to muddy the water, we have to go on step by step, we have no hope."

"Report!!! The Yan army has passed Yong'an Fort!"

"It's almost there, Dad, you can close the door."

"Father knows, are you just sitting here?"

"Yeah, I have to cooperate with the soldiers and horses of the Gan Kingdom. Ran Min is hooked, and I have to use him as bait, ha ha."

...

Ran Min led his army on a long-distance attack without any hindrance. Even the last barrier to the north of the capital city of Liang State——Shitou Pass, its guard opened and closed the gate when he saw the Yan army with the black dragon banner coming. Yan Jun passed.

After passing the Lion Head Pass, continue to the south and you will find the capital city of Liang State, to the east is Wenming Mountain, and to the west is Wenxin Lake, the largest lake in Liang State.

The lake is very wide, which also means that the reeds and wetlands are also extremely vast.

Wenming Mountain and Wenxin Lake are the most famous mountains and rivers in Liang State, but at this time, Ran Min didn't have the heart to appreciate the beautiful scenery after the summer.

He wanted to arrive at the capital of the Liang Kingdom as soon as possible to settle the chaos there. He had already thought about how to promote the prestige of himself and Dayan to the whole world just like how Prince Pingxi entered the Jin Dynasty's palace and Yingdu. Extreme!

However, when Liang Guoguo could almost see it, a red cloud appeared in the sky.

The romance of the Chu people can be said to be vividly reflected in the armor of their army, while the Yan people are indeed much more rigid in this respect.

The Xie family's army began to advance with neat steps. The shield soldiers, spearmen, crossbowmen, knife and axemen, and even the cavalry on both sides added up to a thousand cavalry, forming an extremely strict sense of order.

Perhaps the most aggrieved thing for the Chu people is that since they fought against the Yan people all these years, their real elite infantry phalanx has not actually fought the Yan people very seriously.

Of course, this is mainly because the Yan people will not give this opportunity.

But right now,

The only road to the capital of Liang Guoguo was blocked.

Ran Min opened his mouth, and the scattered cavalry began to report to him, the general, the context of the military situation ahead;

This is a Chu army, because the opponent has already played the banner.

The army of Chu appeared in the state of Liang. This is great news.

Ran Min's mind began to calm down quickly;

He didn't give an order to go directly to the formation. Faced with that almost meticulous formation, any enemy general with a normal mind would not want to fight in the most primitive way to see whose head is stronger.

He ordered his lieutenant general to lead the group back, while he led his soldiers and horses, and began to make preparations for the upcoming charge.

Xie Zhuyang continued to follow his own rhythm and ordered Xie Jiajun to step forward steadily to apply pressure.

The pressure brought by Dayan's black dragon flag is indeed unimaginable, but the advantage of private soldiers is that when their Patriarch is by their side, they can resist most of the fear.

This relatively static confrontation lasted for a long time.

until,

Ran Min waited for his lieutenant back,

Shitouguan, which let him in earlier, chose to close it when faced with the Yan people's call again. At the same time, he shot and killed several Yan army knights.

The feeling of being in an urn came over me all at once.

immediately,

Ran Min gave an order, and the soldiers and horses under his command began to charge.

The contact between the two sides showed a very classic confrontation between cavalry and infantry phalanx.

The Yan army tried to squeeze the Chu army's formation by constantly exerting pressure, while the Chu army showed their fangs to the Yan knights, and began to further actively compress the space, hoping to stick to the Yan cavalry.

The soldiers on both sides were very nervous. After all, they were the fighters on the front line, but the generals on both sides were extraordinarily calm.

Ran Min saw that the Chu army was only trying to drive away and block his footsteps;

Xie Zhuyang could see that Yan Jun did not have the determination to die;

finally,

After the Yan army's two charges failed to shake the Chu army's formation but forced the Chu army to distance itself, the Yan army chose to move eastward.

The Wenxin Lake Wetland in the west will make Yan Jun's horseshoes get stuck in the mud and become useless and become a burden.

But, to the east...

Xie Zhuyang did not order a quick pursuit, but continued to march at the original pace after ordering his subordinates to recuperate the battlefield. He neither chose to return to the capital of Liang State nor to explore further, but advanced a certain distance to the east Later, near dusk, he ordered the village to be built.

The distance between the two sides was not too wide. After all, the Yan people came rushing over and fought with the Chu army. Now they are also exhausted, and it is impossible to move too far at once.

After nightfall,

The scouts from both sides took advantage of the cover of the night to kill happily, and for a while covered the countless cicadas singing in summer.

…

In handsome tent,

Xie Zhuyang received the latest report from his sentry cavalry,

Many sentry cavalry in the Yan army headed north.

"Okay, got it."

Xie Zhuyang waved his hands, supported the handsome table with his hands, leaned his head, and fell asleep slowly.

…

Contrary to Xie Zhuyang's sleepy atmosphere, Yan Jun was caught in a dilemma at the foot of Wenming Mountain.

In Wenming County, the defenders are Liang Jun, but there is a banner with the word "Pu";

This is an elite Liang army that once fought against the Chu army in the Qishan Mountains, but at this time, it is here, led by the general, blocking the way of the Yan people to the east.

The bonfire in front of him kept making crisp sounds, making Ran Min's face flickering, which also confirmed his heart at this time.

The loss of soldiers and horses under his command was not considered large, but the supplies had been exhausted. According to the original plan, after entering Liang Guoguo to put down the chaos, there would be no shortage of everything, but now, they fell into this predicament.

It is not impossible to bypass Wenming County and continue southward to the capital of Liang State, but when the Chu people's army has appeared to the north of the capital, the situation in the capital of Liang State is naturally impossible to please people's hearts. This army of my own fell into a greater passivity, and even the space to maneuver would be lost.

The tight closure of the lion's head gate means that the possibility of returning to the original road may also be blocked.

Continuing to the east, taking the Qishan mountain range, you can detour to the South Gate Pass, but if you go there, you might as well walk around Wenxin Lake.

The biggest problem lies in the Chu army, where it poked itself like a thorn in the throat, and was restrained no matter whether it advanced or retreated.

Ran Min picked up the water bag and took a sip of water;

He had sent men northward, hoping to take advantage of the small cavalry force to cross the blockade and report to his family.

Somewhere, he had a premonition that it was wrong for him to do so. He was a rough man and couldn't understand the rhythm, but after watching social dramas, it seemed that he was performing in the direction expected by the opposite party;

But he can't just sit back and watch his army really fall into danger of destruction,

these years,

Yan people,

court,

It has become a habit to win, and it can even be said to be numb, but the more this is the case, a sudden defeat will arouse even greater backlash.

In the past, when the eldest prince Wangjiang was defeated and recovered, it was so difficult. What kind of a fart is he, Ran Min?

"Break cleverness with strength, and cleverness with strength."

Ran Min said to himself,

"As long as the main force arrives, my lone army will go deep this time, and it will become a self-made bait to lure the enemy into the game. Dayan's chances of winning are still very high!"

Ran Min, who had just drank water, suddenly felt parched again.

Yes Yes,

At the beginning, King Pingxi was besieged after such a lonely army went deep, and then he waited for reinforcements, achieved a great victory, and won the first victory!

...

Jindong, Fengxincheng;

Pingxi Palace;

"Ah, Chu Nu, I am Prince Pingxi, take my life!"

"Ah, kill!"

Prince Ji Chuanye and Tiantian were playing a war game that children should play;

After guessing boxing, if Tian Tian lost, he had to play the Chu army, and the prince won, playing the Yan army, and replaced himself in the role of King Pingxi.

In the land of Yanjin, many children fight every day over who will play the role of Prince Pingxi.

Holding a wooden knife, the prince rushed to Tiantian.

Tiantian started to retreat, not because he was afraid of being a prince because he didn't dare to fight, but because he knew that he was playing the role of Chu people, Chu people, so he had no choice but to run away!

But the crown prince was probably too excited and devoted. When he was "chasing and killing" Chu Nu, he tripped and fell to the ground, and the wooden knife flew out.

Tiantian hurried over and helped the prince up.

the prince cried;

"Don't cry, brother, don't cry, brother will take you to find Big Snake and ask for Linlin."

The prince shook his head and said:

"I actually lost, how could my Yan army lose..."
