Rebirth of Weak Daughter of the General’s Family

There was no fire dragon in the vacant palace in early winter, and it was so cold that it made people tremble. But the prince and concubine Xue Gui, who were wandering in passion, were sweating slightly, feeling that the cold air was a kind of irritation.

It was another satisfying exchange between both parties. The two of them lay on a small old chaise longue. The crown prince put his arms around Xue Guifei, smelling the moldy odor in the house that had not been used for a long time, and whispered to Xue Guifei: "Yu Rui, is that... used?"

Concubine Xue nodded: "It's been three times...every time I didn't dare to put more..."

The prince let out a long sigh, feeling relieved, and smiled and said to Concubine Xue: "Maybe soon you and I will be able to spend a good night in the palace..."

Xue Guifei smiled shyly: "No matter where you are, as long as you are with His Royal Highness, the slave family likes it..." Indeed, if it weren't because the other party was the prince, the charming and charming Xue Guifei, how could she be in such a simple house? Here, do it on a mat spread on the dust! What a grievance this is! If it were other men, Xue Guifei would definitely feel that the other party didn't put herself in the eyes and acted indecently. But this is the prince! When he did so, he also wronged himself! In this way, the two have become partners who share joys and sorrows.

The prince touched Concubine Xue’s hair and said, “Yu Rui, you are the heart of the palace, and the palace wants to stay with you every day...”

Concubine Xue Gui burst into tears: "So are the slaves, I miss Your Highness day and night, so I can't hold myself..."

The two people complained to each other very warmly. At last, seeing that the night was getting dark, they had to put on the clothes of the **** and maid, who had only taken off half of them, and bid farewell.

When the prince returned to the East Palace, he was in high spirits and couldn't fall asleep, so he was served wine and food and drank himself under the lamp. He carefully recalled the relevant words left by his mother at the time, and estimated when it would take effect on the emperor. Although Concubine Xue Gui hasn’t released all of it yet, no matter how small she administers, those things won’t be excreted when she enters the body. If she releases them all, at most one month, it should be like when the first emperor fell ill...Although her mother It was never said clearly, but the prince looked at it now and felt that the first emperor quickly fell ill and died, which was suspicious. If the emperor father really made the move at that time, if there is a father, there must be a son. Now it is natural for him to do this...

To be honest, he doesn't believe in karma, and thinks that those are just the self-comfort of the losers. He believes in power and violence, and kills people. There is no more convenient way. He didn't think about whether someone would do this to him one day in the future. He only hoped to ascend to the throne as soon as possible. Others, whoever he loves.

As for Concubine Xue, the prince decided to get rid of her after she finished the medicine. How could a woman who dared to poison her husband keep it, let alone kill her. She is different from her own mother in that her mother really used similar poisons to help her husband, while Xue Guifei targeted the people who always favored her. There is anyone like this woman who dare not harm the concubine and prince in the palace in the future, and she will not be hurt by her. It is harder than the prince, at least the prince has not dared to poison herself...

The emperor has always felt uncomfortable in his upper abdomen lately. When he is hungry, his stomach ache, but it hurts even after eating. It is really impossible to eat or not to eat. Mao Daochang was puzzled-the emperor's complexion was obviously much rosier than in the past, but now it looks a little pale. Is it because of the cold winter and the introverted energy, Mao Daochang naturally added some pill to the emperor to mobilize his vitality. He also urged the emperor and himself to practice guiding and regulating the meridians for a longer period of time.

The emperor found that if the pain came to do some guiding movements with Mao Daochang, he would be able to slow down, so he listened to Mao Daochang's words, using two or three hours a day as a guide, luck adjusting the breath, it would not be so uncomfortable.

Shen Wen is not doing well now. She started to fall asleep and could only meditate overnight.

Calculating according to time, Bei Rong's army is about to start an offensive, but everything in the capital remains the same, and the life is still living as it used to be. Shen Wen could only whisper quietly with Su Wanniang, talking about his nervousness. She went to the small courtyard every other time and asked Du Juan to return to the house and Ping Yuanhou to verify the various arrangements in the plan, always afraid of omissions. She also told Du Juan that when the news of the war came, she would live in this yard when Ping Yuanhou left Beijing, and she would be equipped with people to cook.

Du Juan felt in her heart that Miss Shen Er's mother-in-law had to ask three times about one thing in different ways, and Hou Ye was not impatient, and he was really very generous to her.

Ping Yuanhou was also very nervous. His news was faster than the imperial court. He already knew that hundreds of thousands of troops from Beirong were pressing down on the territory. He is very scared. If the expert in Houli, Zhenbei hadn't prepared early to face such a powerful enemy, let alone the Shen Jiajun would be over, and the country would not be protected. If the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, of course, he and his family will end up just like themselves. The two sons said at the time. He now admires the high man in Zhenbeihou’s mansion very much, so every time he gets inquiries from Miss Shen Er, he responds meticulously, expressing his respect for the high man behind her, although he still can’t think of it. Who is the expert in Zhenbeihou's Mansion where the eyeliner is.

When the war is approaching, he is most worried about Zhang Yunzheng. The eldest son Zhang Yunming would be with him, but the second son had to act alone, not knowing what he was going to do. Ping Yuanhou decided to find someone to inform him and meet him earlier.

-----------------

Zhang Yunzheng didn't worry about Ping Yuan Hou now, except for occasionally thinking about Shen Wen, he left his parents behind.

Under the valley, he looked up at the words "Beijing will die if he enters", and said to Magnolia whose face was covered with red paint: "You have written so many times, why the words are still so bad."

Magnolia called Qu: "My son! I was hung in the air in the winter, and my arms are sore! Try it! See if you can write any good words!"

Zhang Yunzheng said: "Why don't you let the rose try his arm strength, maybe he can write a few powerful strokes, it's not so soft!"

Magnolia replied: "That slacker! He sneezes as soon as he smells the red paint, his nose and tears! Also, he is dead, and how many people drag him in the air will not make him shiver. Can pull us all down the cliff..."

Zhang Yunzheng didn't want to listen to Magnolia's nagging, snorted, and walked into the valley from the valley mouth. There were mountains-like branches and trees piled up at the Tanikou, all of which were damp, and some with snow. He walked slowly through the valley. Except for the large piles of wet branches at the Tanikou, there was nothing in the valley. . When he reached the end of the valley, he went up to the cliff with light effort and opened the sealed hole where the explosives were buried. He found that the linen cloth in it was still dry and there was no moisture in it. He re-pasted the mud and went down the cliff again.

Back in the village of the wine cellar, there were still people carrying wine cans and carrying them out on the mountain. Yan Sanguan was walking on the side of the road, and when he saw Zhang Yunzheng, he walked over and said: "The day after tomorrow, there will be 30 altars of wine, ten days later. There are another twenty altars, one month later there will be..."

Zhang Yunzheng said: "I think it should be enough."

Yan Sanguan rubbed his hands: "I always think it's not enough."

Zhang Yunzheng said: "As soon as there is news from the border gate, you can take Mrs. Yan San to avoid it. The two hundred miles around here will be a battlefield."

Yan Sanguan hesitated: "I will send my wife away and stay by myself."

Zhang Yunzheng shook his head: "No, your legs and feet are not fast enough, you can't use weapons, and staying still won't help."

Yan Sanguan glared at Zhang Yunzheng: "You are really impolite, do you know?"

Zhang Yunzheng said: "Tell the truth! You can spread some news for us along the way home..." He said something to spread to Yan Sanguan.

Yan Sanguan was shocked: "You want me to say that!"

Zhang Yunzheng nodded: "Remember the time arrangement, once we fight, you just say that!"

Yan Sanguan asked in a low voice, "Why! Why do we say that we are no match for Beirong!"

Zhang Yunzheng frowned, looked for words and said, "I want...I want..."

Yan Sanguan thought of the reason for him: "We must inspire the people! We must excite the crowd! Okay, I understand! I will tell you!"

Zhang Yunzheng didn't say anything, watching the Yan Sanguan who had erected a new goal gearing away.

Zhang Yunzheng looked back to the north, the sky was overcast, as if it was going to snow. Zhang Yunzheng took a deep breath, he was ready.

----------------

In the lobby of the Army of Yancheng, the map was hanging high, and intelligence came intermittently:

"Report! At the end of this morning, the Northern Army's troops passed the Yuyang boundary for fifty miles!"

"Report, three days ago, in Qiuzhuang, a hundred miles away from Daqingling, it was discovered that soldiers from the North Army and the people who had not left were slaughtered..."

Ji Wenzhao pointed out the area on the map and said to Zhenbei Hou Shen Yi, Shen Jian, and the aides of the army divisions: "This area is a lofty mountain and the main force of the general army will never take this route, otherwise the defending side will resist heavily and it will benefit the terrain. , You can win easily."

Zhenbei Hou said: "The main force of hundreds of thousands of Beirong is indeed north of Yancheng."

Ji Wenzhao went on to say: "Then this army must be an offshoot of Beirong. It should be some elite soldiers leading the rabble with the purpose of dispersing the main force of our army."

A military division asked: "Why the third division division said that?"

Ji Wenzhao spoke eloquently: "If our army sends a large number of troops to intercept, the main Northern Rong forces in the north will be concealed. You see, they have just crossed the border from the north, and they have to do both. They are several times more numerous than mine. To cut off the connection between the two forces of our army, we first eliminated the soldiers on our border, and then flanked the troops sent by our army with Beirong on the Northeast Road. Our army was already insufficient, and if it was dispersed, it would be even more vulnerable. "

Another military division pointed at the map and said, "But if they have climbed over this mountain, they can go straight to the coast. Even if they are mobs, if they burn, kill and loot all the way, no one can beat them. What's more, the coastal areas. The annual disaster is not serious, and the people are relatively wealthy. The Beirong army can easily get supplies and advance quickly to the capital!"

Shen Yi and Shen Jian exchanged glances-they knew that this was what Shen Wen said had happened.

Ji Wenzhao nodded gravely: "That's the case, so we must send people to stop, but we can't send heavy troops. It's best to use a small team of elite soldiers to stop the enemy based on the terrain."

Shen Jian pointed to the map and said, "Master Hou, they came from Daqingling in the northeast. Please give me a thousand people. Here, there is a section of the ancient Great Wall that can block them!"

Zhenbeihou frowned: "We don't know how many people have arrived in this group of enemy soldiers. Is it enough for you to bring a thousand people."

Shen Jian said hurriedly: "Master Hou! It's too late to inquire! The terrain over there is dangerous, and there are too many people. It's useless. The third-ranked division just said that we can't send too many troops. Please allow us to set off immediately, otherwise we won't be able to make it there. Up."

Zhenbeihou looked at this second son, and suddenly hesitated. This son has been by his side since he left, and has taken charge of the Chinese Army for him..."

Zhenbeihou hesitated and said, "But, you..."

Shen Jian seemed to know his concerns and said, "Master Hou, I have been discussing matters with the third-ranking division recently. Please allow me to entrust the Chinese military assets to the third-ranking division."

Ji Wenzhao immediately saluted and said, "Master Hou, I did work with Governor Shen during this period. I am familiar with the transfer of the Chinese army and can take over all responsibilities."

Zhenbeihou looked at Ji Wenzhao displeasedly: Humility is indeed not Ji Wenzhao's strong point.

Shen Jian said: "Master Hou, hurry up and give the order, I'll call my troops and set off right away."

Shen Yi said: "One of my guards is just a hundred miles northeast of the city, and Governor Shen can lead thousands of people."

Shen Jian said: "That's good, it can save some time!"

Zhenbeihou didn't want to do this in his heart. Shen Jian's judgment was correct. The place was high and dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Moreover, the vague meaning of the words of the third division is that our army cannot disperse its forces so as not to be defeated by the North Rong army. If a small number of soldiers are sent and the group retreats to Yancheng, it will be cut off by the enemy, and there will not be too much. loss. But soldiers who have already left the city seem to have only one way to sacrifice...

Shen Jian looked at Zhenbeihou anxiously: "Master Hou!"

Zhenbei Hou choked in his throat: As a military commander, he had to go to the battlefield at any time to dedicate himself to the country. He was reluctant to give up, but he had to give up. He gritted his teeth.

The Yan family in the corner said, "I'm going with Governor Shen."

Zhenbeihou looked at Yan Shi, who hurriedly lowered his head. Zhenbeihou didn't have a deep impression of Yan, knowing that she came with Ji Wenzhao, Shen Jian's eldest brother-in-law, and counted as her own relatives. He intends to make contact, but the Yan Junshi doesn't usually show up, but now he wants to go to this extremely risky place with Shen Jian. He wants to take a good look at this brave counselor. But the Yan family did not look up. Ji Wenzhao said: "This Young Master Yan is witty and flexible and can help Governor Shen."

Zhenbeihou nodded and waved his hand to let them go out so as not to reveal his sadness in his tone.

Shen Jian and Yan Shi went out of the hall together, and Shen Jian hurriedly said to Wang Zhi and Zhang Ding who were guarding the door: "Get ready to go, we are going to war."

Wang Zhi responded, and Zhang Ding began to tremble, and murmured: "Fighting...fighting...it's terrible..."

When Shen Jian saw him like that, he said, "Don't go! It's not enough to save you on the battlefield! You stay!"

Zhang Ding burst into tears and said, "Thank God! Thank you for supervising things!"

Shen Jian ignored him and left in a hurry.

Zhang Ding said to Wang Zhi tremblingly: "Brother Wang, I'm so lucky!"

Wang Zhi contemplated how to stab Shen Jian in the back to accomplish his grand career of promotion and fortune, and said to Zhang Ding absentmindedly, "Yes, yeah..."

Yan Shi said to Shen Jian for a while, see the city gate, and then separated from him. First ran to find Duan Zeng who lives nearby, and said to Duan Zeng anxiously, "Let’s go right away, are you ready to go to Dongchengmen and wait, have you given all those things to Governor Shen?"

Duan Zeng nodded: "I've been ready a long time ago. I have given the stuff. See you later!"

Then Yan looked for the students who had been on standby for Yan's Academy that had arranged the hilltop with her. Yan looked at a few people and said, "We are going to the front line. I don't know if we can come back. Do you want to go?"

These people had always followed her to arrange the organs and city defenses, and they had long considered themselves the backbone of the army. Although they were nervous at this time, they all nodded and said, "Of course I want to go!"

They are just sixteen or seventeen-year-old young people, although they have been here for nearly a year to get stronger, but in Yan's eyes, they are still in the shape of bean sprouts. Yan suppressed his emotions and said calmly as much as possible: "You take your luggage and go to the east gate and wait for me. When someone asks, just say you heard the news..."

One person interrupted: "It's what we want to follow!"

Yan nodded and said goodbye to them. He went to his place to carry his luggage, let him lead a horse, tied the luggage, and mounted the horse and ran to the courtyard where Yan Erguan lived.

The whole city in Yancheng is on guard. From the moment Bei Rong broke the border, Ji Wenzhao initiated the city defense steps he had organized in the past: all the lichang rounds guarded the street and interrogated the idlers. If anyone wants to get out of the city, there must be a guide issued by Zhongjun, Hou Zhenbei.

The Yan family relied on the Chinese army's waist card and went all the way to the second official Yan. As soon as he knocked on the door, the second official Yan opened the door, and Chen Li was standing beside him. The Yan family hurriedly said to Chen Lichang: "Everyone will be in a team and arrive at the northeast gate within an hour. This is a guide!" She handed a piece of paper to Chen Lichang and said to the second official Yan. : "Father, you have to listen to Brother Ji's dispatch in the city!" He turned around and left.

Yan Erguan said with difficulty: "My son! You have to... be careful!"

Yan changed his mind again, and hurriedly pulled Yan Erguan aside, and whispered in his ear: "Father! No matter what others say about me, don't believe it! You can behave on the surface. But don’t be sad, just wait here for me to come back!" Her eyes were horribly bright, staring at Erguan Yan, Erguan Yan stammered: “Okay... Ok... I don't believe it..."

When Yan got an answer, he turned his head and shouted at the back room: "Mother! I went out to play! Come back in a few days!"

Mrs. Yan Er put on clothes and hurried out, crying over to pull Yan's hand, Yan anxiously asked Mrs. Yan Er to pull for a moment, and then said: "Mother! I have to go!"

Ji Yan was also walking out of another room door. Yan was afraid of being entangled, so he said to her hurriedly: "Eldest sister! You will help me take care of my parents!" She ran out of time and took out her hand from Mrs. Yan. , Hurried out of the courtyard.

Ji Yan promised to her back with a weeping voice, and was busy comforting the crying Madam Yan Er.

Chen Lichang took Lu Yin and said, "I'm going to greet people!" He also ran out.

Yan Erguan looked at the half-open courtyard door in a daze, and the door was empty. His tears stayed in his eyes, and after a while he said to Mrs. Yan Er: "Why are you crying? She said to go to play, just go out to play. Like before, if you have enough outside, you will naturally come back..."

Mrs. Yan Er cried to take the arms of the official Yan Er and asked: "Really!"

Yan Erguan raised his head to look at the sky, not letting tears flow down, and said, "Of course! Will your mate's words be wrong?"

Mrs. Yan Er nodded in tears: "No...it can't be wrong..."

Ji Yan also whimpered and said, "She is not an ordinary person, and she is not dead. Aunt should know."

Mrs. Yan Er nodded: "I know, I know, she will definitely come back."

Yan Shi ran to the woodcarving shop again on horseback and patted the door open. The young man opened the door and blinked vigorously. Yan asked, "Your father has already left."

The young man leaned his face closer, saw Yan Shi clearly, and said, "I left six days ago." Yan thanked him.

She mounted her horse and ran to the city gate, and saw Shen Jian and Shen Yi talking. Several students from the Yan Academy and Duan Zeng Wang Zhi were all waiting, and there was a small group of soldiers next to them.

Shen Yi saw Yan's coming and said, "I'll send you a ride to the place where our guards are stationed." Yan knew that Shen Yi was following, Wang Zhi could not start on the way, she relaxed, shook her head and said, "You go first. In one step, I gathered some civilian volunteers, and when they arrived, I took people to chase you."

Shen Yi nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."

Shen Yi led a small group of soldiers, escorting Shen Jian and the others, all the way to the blocking ground.

Yan waited until the young men led by Chen Lichang arrived, and then took the people out of the city on the road.

They walked hurriedly for two days. When they arrived at the bottom of the mountain, Yan Shi whispered to Chen Lichang: "There are spies up there. When I get there, you have to say anything, you have to follow me, don't show anything to other people."

When Chen Lichang heard this, his face was angry, but after hearing it he held it back and nodded.

When Yan finally climbed the narrow ridge on the high mountain with his people, he found that there were not many sergeants around Shen Jian, all with simple bows, arrows, knives and guns, and everyone looked at the north against the broken city wall. Yan raised her head and looked far, and her heart shrank into a ball for a moment: Just like the image that flashed in her mind at that time, there were countless flags in the distant valley, under the white snow, and the mountains and plains, and Bei Rong's army had arrived.

She hurriedly walked to Shen Jian and asked loudly, "Didn't General Shen say for a thousand people, why now... there are not many people"

Shen Jian sighed: "Most of the 1,000 people stationed here went to help the people evacuate yesterday. At this time, only more than 300 people can come. General Shen went elsewhere to find someone."

Yan Shi said in an anxious tone: "I only found more than 60 people!"

Shen Jian resolutely said: "Then we have to hold on too! You command everyone to pile up rocks and build some fortifications! When the sky gets darker, I will go down to explore the reality."

Yan shook his head and said, "Supervisor Shen, don't take risks, but stay here!"

Shen Jian said with great righteousness: "No, I want to meet those people from Beirong, and meet them to see if they are strong or weak."

Yan Shi even disagreed, and said: "You are the coach here, you can't take risks!"

Shen Jian is very stubborn: "It's not a risk, it's to give them a head-on blow!"

Yan was anxious: "Absolutely not! We must guard against danger, not attack!"

Shen Jian was finally a little helpless: "Well, I have to go and see how they came up. There should be nothing wrong with it!"

The two are husband and wife, and they match well. Yan Shi, with a worried expression, began to direct people to build fortifications first. Fortunately, the hillside is full of stones, and as many arrowheads as possible can be erected on the dilapidated city walls, but in a hurry, there is not enough manpower to build many, and the arrowheads seem very omission.

In the afternoon, the winter sky was gloomy, and Shen Jian "persisted" to take people down the mountain on the Beirong side. This was actually not too out of the ordinary. In the past, generals often came to the front to check the enemy's situation in person, but there was none. With such a huge disparity between the enemy and us, the opponent seems to have hundreds of thousands, and there are only a few hundred people on their side.

Wang Zhi thinks this opportunity is good. Just about to follow Shen Jian, Shen Jian turned around and said to him: "You don't have martial arts, so just stay here for now."

Wang Zhi said: "I can follow the supervisor..." It will kill you!

Shen Jian smiled and said, "You are commendable for your loyalty! There is a chance later, I will only take a few soldiers to see the enemy, and I will not fight. It should be fine."

Wang Zhi gave it up as soon as he heard it.

Shen Jian took four or five people outside the broken city wall, carefully walked down the steep hillside, and disappeared behind the rugged rocks and some low, dry shrubs. Standing behind the wall, Yan looked down at the mountain and murmured: "I hope he's okay..."

Although some of the nervousness she showed was for Wang Zhi to see, she was indeed really nervous. Yan felt that the palms of both hands were wet, her chest tightened, and insects crawled on her skin... When this kind of fear came, she almost wanted to jump into the wolf-toothed mountain below, and die first. , It is better than suffering a little bit.

In order to distract herself, she recalled the dreams Shen Wen told her over and over again. Right here, Shen Jian and Bei Rong met with each other, was stabbed in the back by Wang Zhi, and was found by Huo Luo, the second son of Bei Rong Khan. After being killed, he cut off his head...

Yan calmed down, his heart was cold, and his mind was very clear: Huo Luo Huo Xing is prosperous this time, I have something to restrain you!

The leader of this army of Bei Rong is exactly Huo Luo.

After half a year of mobilization, Tugu Khan finally assembled more than half a million people, which is a huge scale in Beirong. There are more than 300,000 real sergeants, and the rest are herdsmen and family members of sergeants who have no combat experience.

This is a war that has to be fought. Years of drought have caused large areas of grassland to be deserted. One year's rain has just been enough, but the severe winter snow disaster has frozen a large number of livestock. Tugu Khan had long wanted to send his teacher to the south, otherwise people who were hungry and cold might fall into their nests and rob each other. After all, the weather has been smooth for a year, the horses have been fattened, and some supplies have been collected, and Tugu Khan eagerly sent troops. Although the best autumn has passed by the mobilization of the troops from all walks of life, he did not want to wait another year to prevent the Southern Dynasties from being relieved from the disaster year and strengthening their defenses. Moreover, winter is also a good day for war. The soldiers of the Northern Army are accustomed to the severe cold. They wear animal skins and can shoot arrows on horseback in the snow. However, the soldiers of the Southern Dynasties only have linen, and they cannot face off against the soldiers of the Northern Army. As for the siege, Bei Rong has prepared tools such as siege cones, ladders, slings, etc., relying on the cover of a strong bow, is sure to be able to climb the walls of Yancheng. Moreover, someone from the Southern Dynasty came to contact and said that the gate would be opened for Beirong. Regardless of whether this is fraud or not, as soon as the gate of the city opens and rushes in, who can withstand tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Northern Army who are like wolves and tigers?

The layout of Tugu Khan was that he and his eldest son He Duo approached Yancheng from the north, and first concentrated their forces to eliminate the border garrison. He is absolutely sure of this. With more than 200,000 cavalry fighting each other's infantry and thousands of cavalry, a confrontation can completely defeat the main force of the Shen Jiajun! After Shen's army was defeated, he would inevitably retreat to Yancheng. At that time, he besieged the city with heavy troops, and then divided into two groups, letting his eldest son He Duo lead 140,000 cavalry from the west road to bypass the mountains and lean into the Central Plains. Yancheng was besieged, and Shen Jiajun was no longer obstructed near the border. The West Route Army is a one-color iron cavalry, and should be unimpeded all the way.

The second son, Huo Luo, led the East Route Army. He did not go with his father and brother, but launched from the east. On the one hand, he dispersed the southern army, and on the other hand, he was also a clever. Because it is not the main force of the attack, Huoruo's forces are mainly the 30,000 horses under his control, and the other 10,000 are all miscellaneous. Even after being blocked by the Shen Jiajun in the mountainous area, Tugu Khan encircled Yancheng and sent tens of thousands of people to the front and back. The defenders would also be wiped out. The East Route Army naturally drove straight into the interior. Although the East Road is not strong, there are not many obstacles after crossing the mountains. It can be burned and killed along the way, creating a huge momentum, helping the Middle Road and the West Road, and destroying the heart of defense of the Southern Dynasty.

If Yancheng is besieged, how long can it be resisted. Once Yancheng is broken, the main force in the center can openly go south. The left, middle and right three sharp knives are inserted and echoed each other. The Southern Dynasty has become a weak fat, only to be slaughtered by anyone. For the sake of it.

Fire Luo's heart is high. Knowing that his eldest brother had many elites, he took up the long-distance West Road war, and he had few troops, so he sent him to the East Route Army. Although he was the weakest among the three, Huo Luo didn't think he would do worse than his eldest brother. He was eager to try, ready to compete with those useless Han people!

His team set off first and had to cross this mountainous area. If Shen Jiajun came and intercepted, he felt that he could defeat the enemy completely, and there was no need for his father to send someone to flanking him. He urged hundreds of thousands of people from the grasslands to enter the mountainous regions, rushing day and night, wanting to cross the mountains as soon as possible, and cross the eastern part of Yancheng into the coast. In terms of time, he was a few days faster than Tugu Khan planned.

The sun behind the cloud set, and the sky was almost completely dark. Yan ordered the people to prepare a torch. When it got dark, he would stick it on the wall. While the people were preparing, there was movement outside the remnant wall. Several soldiers opened their bows and arrows, and someone shouted outside: "It's us! Governor Shen is injured!"

Yan exclaimed: "Quickly, go help them!"

Chen Lichang and a few young men went outside the wall, and Wang Zhi hurriedly leaned to the side of the wall. Soon, one person carrying Shen Jian and a few people supporting them, climbed up from the steep rocks with difficulty. Shen Jian's face was full of blood, and the light armor's battle robe was also full of blood stains. There was a half of an arrow shaft standing behind his back, and his chest was tightly wrapped with a large cloth soaked with blood.

When they entered the wall, Yan said hurriedly: "Hurry up, let go!"

The people put Shen Jian on the ground, and Shen Jian half-sitting leaning on the arm of a soldier, Duan Zeng hurriedly ran over to give Shen Jian a pulse.

Another person reported: "We approached Bei Rong's army and were spotted by them. They shot us arrows, and the Superintendent shot an arrow in the back! Bei Rong's strong bow is very powerful, and the arrow shot through the armor!"

Yan clan was so anxious that he couldn't say anything anymore: "This...this...what...what...let's draw an arrow..."

Duan Zeng shook his head and said, "You can't draw an arrow! The tip of the arrow will come out with flesh and blood..."

Shen Jian spit out a mouthful of blood, struggling to say: "Quick! Go report it to Lord Hou, there should be more than one hundred thousand soldiers on this route in Bei Rong, among them... tens of thousands of soldiers... others... seem to be civilians..." He swallowed hard. , "Quick, go..." eyes closed.

Yan Shi turned around and saw Wang Zhi at a glance. He pointed to him and said, "You, take the torch and return to Yancheng! Don't stay, report the military situation to Lord Hou!"

Wang Zhi was overjoyed and turned around to leave. Yan said to the others, "Have you heard! There are tens of thousands of soldiers in the Northern Army, and I have to stand guard! If anyone wants to escape, go down the mountain now! Those who remain , Don’t want to survive! If the enemy wants to leave when attacking, I will kill him personally!"

She used to have a neutral voice, but now she listens thinly and shrillly, a little hoarse.

Chen Lichang said with a loud voice: "If you die, you will die! I won't run away!"

Many people also responded: "Can't escape!"

Several students from Yan's Academy also said loudly: "Is it a shame to serve the country..." "If a big man dies, he will die..."

But one person said scaredly: "I...I want to... go down the mountain..."

Chen Lichang saw that the man was a righteous soldier with him, and said angrily: "Little brother, you are struggling for a life of integrity. You are a man, so you can't be so embarrassed!"

The man was almost crying, stammering: "But...I...I really...can't stand it..."

Another person also said: "I...I also want to... want to go... I thought I was here to brag about it, but I didn't expect... They were so close..."

Chen Li was anxious: "You...you really..." Seeing that he was about to rush to beat the man, Yan stopped him and said, "It's okay! Those who want to go, let's go now!" She said to Wang Zhi, "You are right to Hou. Lord said, those of us will not take a step back!"

The person who remained said: "Yes! Don't take a step back!"

Yan asked Wang Zhi to give Wang Zhi a torch, Wang Zhi carried the luggage, and the other two people also carried the luggage. Wang Zhi took the lead and walked down the mountain. He had just walked down the ridge more than a dozen steps, and heard Duan Zeng say: "Senior Master Yan! No! Supervisor Shen is out of business!"

Then came Yan's shout: "Supervisor Shen! Supervisor Shen!"

Duan Zeng's voice: "No way! He died..."

Yan said: "Supervisor Shen, I will definitely avenge you!"

When Wang Zhi walked back, seeing Shen Jian closing his eyes and his face as gray as death, Duan Zeng shook his head on the side.

Yan turned his head to see Wang Zhi, and shouted hoarsely: "Hurry up and report the letter! Tell Hou Ye, Governor Shen is martyred! But we will avenge him!" The people behind her shouted: "Vengeance." !revenge!…"

The other two people also urged: "Hurry up...hurry up...or else it's dark and the mountain roads are not easy to walk!"

Wang Zhi turned around and walked away from the mountain with two civilians cautiously at night, not daring to stay at night, and walking towards Yancheng. One person whispered: "It's terrible! So many Northern Rong troops! The mountains and plains... Fortunately I ran back..."

Wang Zhi also felt very fortunate that if he stayed, he would have stabbed Shen Jian to death, and it would be difficult to escape from the battlefield. Now that Shen Jian is dead, no one on the mountain seems to be able to live. Needless to say, when reporting to the prince, it can be said that he accompanied Shen Jian to investigate the military situation and pushed him to Bei Rong’s arrow when he saw the opportunity. Yaxia, that’s why he was shot to death... He will definitely be rewarded, but the two people around him know the inside story. If they tell someone else in Yancheng, if their words are written into the memorial...

When they walked to about to dawn, Wang Zhi said: "I really can't walk anymore, let's rest for a while!"

Those two were not serious sergeants. They were really tired after marching for so many days, so they agreed to Wang Zhi's suggestion. Wang Zhi found a leeward slope, and the three of them lay down, and the two fell asleep quickly. Wang Zhi took out the knife, and one person killed two people with one knife. Thinking that Bei Rong was about to fight over, multiple corpses were not a big deal, and they didn't bury them. They only rummaged through their luggage to see if they were available. He took the dry food of the two people, but did not move the gong in the luggage. He also wondered for a moment: Why did both of them have gongs, but when they killed someone, he was always a little flustered. Thinking of the person who thought he was just here to blow, he also thought he was cheering for the sergeants. He didn't dare to stay longer, and then walked towards Yancheng.

Soon, it will dawn. Wang Zhi turned his head unintentionally while he was walking. A black wolf smoke rose above the mountainous area where he had left.
