Lord of the House

Failed to break through the siege, the city's grain storage was reported, and Gu Wuchen and Zhao Qinmin died in the city tower drinking poison. The morale of the defenders, who had been severely demoralized, collapsed like a sand tower. Out of the city to discuss down.

When defending the city until the food ran out, he was considered to have fulfilled his duty, but Gu Wuchen finally chose to kill himself by drinking poison, which made the defending generals feel that he was loyal to the court. Push Zhao Qinmin's son Zhao Jin as the head, and kill him at night.

The army was in chaos and people were in a panic. Outsiders naturally couldn't investigate the cause of Zhao Qinmin's death. It was only when he chose to die with Gu Wuchen and righteousness. Zhao Jin didn't understand why his father died suddenly in the end, but when things developed to this point, others could surrender Yan Hu, but he had only one way to inherit his "father's will", and lead the more than a thousand generals who refused to surrender out of the city.

Without support, more than a thousand generals and soldiers want to break through the siege of thousands of troops, how can they escape the fate of destruction? Zhao Jin died in the chaos of the army, and in the end, only a hundred remaining soldiers broke through the siege, fled to the mouth of the Zhulong River, and was picked up on the boat.

After Yang Pu begged for death, Gu Siyuan lost his soul and was in a trance. When he knew the news of Gu Wuchen's suicide and Yang Xin's fall, he was hit hard. It was like he had a sudden illness. age.

Yang Yihang and Chen Enze did not continue to guard the Zhulong River mouth. After the sixth day of September, they confirmed that there were no remaining soldiers from Qingzhou fleeing, so they set sail for Dengzhou.

After the fall of Yangxin, the main force of Yan and Hu's troops on the Eastern Front was no longer under any restraint, and all became active. From the first ten days of September, nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses, both on foot and on horseback, rushed south like a tide from the lines of Yangxin, Guangrao, Huantai, and Linzi, and entered the hinterland of Qingzhou.

When Gu Siyuan, Chen Enze and others arrived at Dengzhou Swordfish Village, all the cities of Shouguang, Changyi, and Qingzhou were captured. Chen Zhihu had already led his troops to cross the Jiaolai River, and then they captured Laizhou, Pingdu, Laiyang, and Haiyang. Wait for the city.

Chen Zhihu cheated defeat outside Qingzhou City, Du Juefu, Cheng Weiyuan, Yang Shi and others thought it was a great victory. Although Huaidong sent people into Qingzhou to warn, but the 4,000 soldiers and horses originally gathered in Qingzhou had been scattered to Changyi, Shouguang and other cities, and eventually they were defeated by Chen Zhihu. Du Juefu was killed in Changyi, only Cheng Weiyuan and Yang Shi rushed to Qingzhou to besieged to death, and led more than a thousand soldiers to flee to Linqu, struggling to support.

Liu Yefei did not completely block the news of the annihilation of Dengzhou City by cheating. The news spread to Pingdu, causing chaos in the Dengzhou town army. Liu Yefei's confidants were afraid that they would be liquidated if they retreated to Dengzhou.

At this time, Chen Zhihu's troops were divided into two groups. One was led by Gao Yi. About 10,000 people from the newly attached army and the surrendered army came to Dengzhou. The other was led by Chen Zhihu and went to Jimo, an important town in Jiaozhou Bay.

On the Dengzhou side, the soldiers and horses stationed at the Qijiaji at the southern foot of the Buling Mountains also withdrew, and it only took one or two days to completely abandon Dengzhou City and retreat to the Daoyu Village.

It was too late for all personnel and materials to be evacuated to Huaidong. Except for Daoyu Village, the Miaodao Islands closest to Penglaijiao in Dengzhou became a temporary evacuation point. Nearly 100,000 soldiers and civilians, and millions of stone materials, were piled up in a mess on Miao Island, Daheishan Island, Daxiaozhushan Island, Daxiaoqin Island, Nanbeihuangcheng Island and other islands.

At about this time, the Huaidong order letter signed by Lin Fu personally came, ordering Yang Yihang to serve as the commander of Jinwei, Miaoshan, and Penglai ministries, appointing Chen Enze as the deputy commander, Hu Yuer as the commander to join the army, and assisting the temple guard. Mountain, and asked Li Jixie, the son of the king of Danluo, to guard Penglai and Miaoshan, and asked Yang Yihang to stick to the swordfish village as much as possible, in order to attract more Yanhu soldiers and horses in the northeast corner of Shandong. He also ordered Gao Zongting, Zhao Hu and others to return to Chongzhou in advance after the situation in Dengzhou was roughly determined, and another important task was appointed, and ordered Gao Zongting to bring Dengzhou official Yuan Zhixing and others to Chongzhou in advance...

Miaoshan Islands and Penglai Saury Village are the key places in the Bohai Sea, facing Jinzhou in Liaodong across the sea, and they are also the firm backup of Jinwei Island - Dengzhou has not been lost in the future, and Saury Village is the station of Dengzhou navy. The city and the Miaoshan Islands are under the jurisdiction of the Dengzhou Naval Division.

At this time, Dengzhou has fallen, and the entire situation in Shandong, including the Hehuai line of defense, will completely collapse. Jiangning will naturally have no time to fight for the jurisdiction of the Miaoshan Islands. Huaidong will not take the Miaoshan Islands at this time.

In fact, Jinwei Island is a Dokdo, and does not use a large number of warships to gather and garrison troops; and the Miaoshan Islands, as the largest coastal island group to the north of the Yangtze River Estuary, are far from Jinwei not only in the number of islands but also in the area. The island is incomparable.

There are 32 large and small islands in the Miaoshan Islands. The main island is more than 30 miles in circumference. The island is steep and mountainous, the beaches are dangerous and the reefs are odd, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There are still fields for farming on the island, and more than a thousand islanders live here. Live by farming and fishing.

Compared with Jinwei Island, the Miaoshan Islands are more suitable as the main base for the northern special camp.

Including the garrison on the original Tsuwei Island and the remnants of the Dengzhou navy, there are nearly 3,000 people. Lin Fu asked Yang Yihang to increase the number of troops to about 6,000 people depending on the actual situation, and compile the warships and ordnance materials of the original Dengzhou Navy for him to use, so that he would use the Miaoshan Islands as a base to harass Liaodong, Jixi, Yanxi and Shandong coasts, try to contain as many enemy troops as possible.

Li Jisuo, the prince of Danluo, suffered heavy casualties in the first battle of Qijiaji. Lin Fu allowed him to recruit Yongzhuang in Dengzhou, and even asked him to recruit two more battalions of Dingzhuang to supplement the loss of troops.

Although Danluo is an independent country, its middle-level eloquence is more than 30,000, and its population is actually smaller than that of the middle-level counties in the Central Plains.

Before and after the Seogwipo War, Dan Ra lost a lot of Ding Zhuang. At present, Danluo wants to maintain a relatively high proportion of the standing army, especially the lack of population. This time, Lin Fu recruited Xu Danluo from Dengzhou to be brave, and it was considered to share the war dividends with them. Anyway, there are hundreds of thousands of people to be evacuated from Dengzhou, and one or two thousand people are divided for Danluo, which is not even considered on what.

Considering that Chen Zhihu's troops are quite good at siege warfare, although the swordfish village is surrounded by the dangers of mountains and seas, the city is strong, but it also needs elite soldiers and horses to defend it. Zhao Hu finally transferred a battalion of elite troops from Haidong. Yang Yihang's department.

On September 12, Gao Yi entered Dengzhou, which had become an empty city and a ruined city. The next day, he led his troops to encircle the Saury Village. Seeing that the Sauyu Walled City was solid and dangerous, there were also elite guards from Huaidong, who drove the people to dig outside the city. Fortifications were built for long-term siege.

The situation in Dengzhou was generally the same, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians could not be transported from Miaodao to the south by boat. The coffins with Yang Pu and Ma Chao, which were sealed with lime, also went south and arrived in Chongzhou on the 23rd.

*********

In Chongzhou in late September, the autumn is already deep, and the leaves are falling and the wind is cold.

When the news of Yangxin came, Gu Junxun cried several times, and when Yang Shi escorted her mother and sister-in-law over, she cried for several nights. When the boat from Dengzhou arrived, Gu Junxun's eyes were red and swollen, and her cheeks were sunken. In the autumn wind with yellow leaves falling, she looked particularly thin.

Tang Gu's family is not as fierce as in Jiangning in previous years. Her hair was born early, her face was full of wrinkles, and she was already a frail old woman. She supported her daughter Jun Xun and her daughter-in-law Du Shi, stood tremblingly by the river, and was blown by the river wind. She was on the verge of collapse, and Gu Wuchen's death had dealt a particularly heavy blow to her.

Lin Bie was wearing a green shirt and stood aside, watching the ships slowly approaching the South Bank pier.

Gu Yingxiu looked at Lin Fu and thought to herself, regardless of the grievances between Huaidong and Qingzhou over the years, but thinking about his uncle's life makes people feel embarrassed.

When he was young, he was so blunt. He was convicted because of his words. He lived on the sidelines for ten years. In the past, right and wrong, the uncle used himself as a bait to leave a way for Si Yuan to live, because he was a kind father; he finally committed suicide in Yangxin City, and did not yield to the enemy. For the court, he was a loyal minister—in the past Even if Huaidong had resentment towards the people of Qingzhou, at this moment, it probably vanished into thin air and ceased to exist, leaving only those vivid memories of the past.

Gao Zongting, Zhao Hu and the others landed from other places. Lin Fu and his mother-in-law Tang Gu, Jun Xun, Yingxiu and Yang Shi went to Nanya Pier to welcome Gu Siyuan, Yang Pu, Ma Chao and others.

Gu Siyuan looked at the pier that was approaching and the southern cliff of Zilang Mountain~www.wuxiaspot.com~ looked at Lin Fu, his mother, wife, younger sister, and cousin standing on the pier. He felt guilty and remorseful, and his heart was full of mixed feelings. .

Gu Wuchen's body fell in Yangxin, and the traitor Yuan Lishan had no intention of humiliating him, so people buried Gu Wuchen's body on Zhulongpo outside Yangxin City, next to Lu Jingyan's cemetery.

The two countries were at war, and it was unrealistic to retrieve Gu Wuchen's skeleton, so Lin Tie set up a mourning hall for Gu Wuchen in Chongzhou, and asked Lin Ting to erect another tomb of the ancestral tomb of the Gu family in Shilianghutang.

Seeing Gu Siyuan getting off the boat, he was relatively speechless. After a long time, Lin Fucai said, "Uncle Yang and Uncle Ma died loyally. I want to put the coffins of the two of them together with their father-in-law in a mourning hall for people to pay homage to. Siyuan, you What do you think?" Chongzhou also verified the events before and after Yangxin's fall. Only Zhao Qinmin died strangely. Lin Fu didn't think Zhao Qinmin was someone who could die with him, but the details are unknown.

Gu Siyuan nodded, took out his father's suicide note that Yang Pu had brought out from his arms, and said, "When I left the city to break through the siege, my father asked Uncle Yang to bring it to you and Mother Xun, who would have thought Uncle Yang would know about it. My father already has the will to die, and he has no intention of living alone," he said to Yang Shi, "The Gu family owes you too much, too much..."

Yang Shi said in a sad voice, "Young Master is serious."

Gu Siyuan knelt down at Mrs. Tang Gu again and cried, "The child is incompetent, he was born alone, but his father's body is exhausted and he can't return to his homeland..."

"..." Mrs Tang Gu's eyes were covered with tears, her thin fingers tightly grasped her son's shoulders, and she was unable to speak for a long time. Gu Junxun and Gu Siyuan's wife Liu Shi also burst into tears.

Lin Fu stood aside with the suicide note that Gu Wuchen left to him and Jun Xun. My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
