Zhui Xu

Woke up from a rare sleep, suddenly, like a distant dream.

In the early morning of April 23, when Zhou Pei got up, the sky was gradually lit up. In the early summer morning, it was separated from the boring moisture in the spring, and there was a light wind in the yard. The heavens and the earth were as clean as the Jiangning.

She sat for a while under the gazebo in the middle of the empty courtyard, next to the thriving flowers and vines. The courtyard was gradually sinking in a quiet gray, and there were guards in the distance, but they did not speak. Zhou Pei handed over the palm of his hand, but at this time, he could feel his own thinness.

In the mortal body, one's own strength, involved in this complex big world, promotes many things, clarifies thousands of relationships, sometimes a life and death, and sometimes, can not sleep for several days. After a long time, I feel that I am no longer a self, as if I have covered a huge body. But of course these are all illusions.

This year, she is 30 years old. In the eyes of the world, she is a lonely and vicious person. She has placed her husband under house arrest and has mastered the power of the old woman. When officials came over, they were mostly trembled. When they faced Junwu, they were actually more afraid. The reason is very simple. Junwu is a prince. Even if he is too irony, he will take over the country in the future. Many things, even if they have the opposite idea, will eventually Ability to communicate.

She is different. She stands behind the martial arts and supports the younger brother to do things with the woman's body. No one is accompanying her, and her husband has been under house arrest. Even though the words on the surface are soft, it is something that can be done by turning your face away. The outside world is so sloppy to her.

In fact, what else can you think about?

She remembered Zhou Wei and Kang Xian who had died.

When she was scheduled to take over the industry of the Princess of the Immaculate Conception, she was only a teenage girl in her teens. With her parents, the burden was also on her shoulders. I didn’t notice it at the beginning. When I reacted, I was already pushed and ran away. The teacher also rebelled. The country broke down and there are countless things every day. Of course, she can throw it away as she never saw it, but She did not do this after all.

When I waited to stand still, the 30-year-old was in front of her, and her husband became a bad guy, and the marriage was over. The happiness that has been defined by the secular people has not been seen with her.

When I decided to think about it, the departure of Zhou Wei and Kang Xian seemed to be close at hand. Life is in an undetectable moment, and it dies.

She picked up the branches of the trees by the gazebo and took them in her hands like a sword. After she returned from Yan Liang more than ten years ago, Zhou Wei taught her sword dance. Grandma Huang's temperament was mild in front of her family, but she mastered the enormous power and industry of the Princess of the country, and also had its majesty and killing side. At the beginning of the government, the old man taught her sword in private.

"The sword has double fronts, one hurts one end, one hurts one at a time, and the world's things are mostly the same... The interesting thing about the sword and the world is that it will hurt the wounded between the wounds..."

Zhou Pei’s athletic ability is not strong. In fact, Zhou Jian’s atmospheric sword dance has never been learned, but the truth of the sword dance is quickly understood. It will be a measure of injury and injury, and it will hurt people. Understand the truth, for the sword, she has never touched it since then, at this time think of it, but can not help but sorrow from it.

She recalled the original picture, stood up with the wooden strip, and slowly strode out the wooden strips. With the old man who died eight years ago, he swept the sword front and moved the pace in the morning breeze... Feng, hurting others, the girl who was more than ten years ago could not keep up, so she changed to the long princess.

Cheng Zhouhai came in from the outside, and then stepped back two steps silently at the courtyard. Zhou Pei danced a few swords and stopped to look at the courtyard door. Cheng Zhouhai came over: "His Royal Highness is very good."

"Mr. So early."

"Wait for the news, I didn't go back last night." Cheng Zhouhai smiled. "His spirit is good."

Zhou Pei put the branches aside: "I don't know why, I suddenly slept a good night last night. When I got the dawn, I had a dream. I dreamed of forgetting."

After the death of Kang Xian and Zhou Wei, Zhou Pei relied most on Cheng Zhouhai. Both sides were also teachers and friends, and they were familiar with each other's situation. Since the pressure from the side is getting bigger, Zhou Pei often suffers from insomnia, can't sleep, and many medical officers have seen it, but it is not very useful. When the Jurchens came, Zhou Pei was worried, and staying up late was daily. She is less than thirty years old, and she can still hold on the surface, but the people around her are often anxious. At this time, Zhou Pei has a good night's sleep, and Cheng Zhouhai is awkward.

"His Royal Highness is calm, there is a wind of Xie An." He flattered a sentence, and then said, "...maybe a good sign."

He previously said that he was "waiting for the news." In fact, many people in Lin'an City are waiting for the news in the past few days. On April 18, the former sword of Changzhou’s Xiyin army turned to Zhenjiang with high speed. On the same day, the Arubao army also cooperated and put forward the attitude of desperately attacking Zhenjiang. Not many people can confirm this yet. True and false.

At this time, Jiangnan, Jiangning in the west and Zhenjiang in the east are the two fulcrums that block the Yangtze River. As long as these two fulcrums still exist, they can drag the Zongfu army and make it impossible to rest assured.

Today, Jiangning has become a core theater. Zhenjiang is seated by Junwu and is responsible for dealing with the army that Xi Yin and Yin Shu can lead. In the past few months, the two sides have fought and killed each other, and Junwu hopes to defeat Xi Yin as soon as possible. - Even dragging Xi Yin with human tactics.

On the other side of the Xiyin side, there are two directions in the big strategy: First, they no longer pay attention to the training of logistics supply. They continue to go south along the rich areas of the Taihu Lake area, attacking the city and eating the people. In the middle, Zhenjiang to Lin’an The distance of four hundred miles is full of rich cities. In Lin'an City, the floating of people's hearts is complicated. As long as Xi Yin can kill this most elite army of the Jurchens for four hundred miles, he will arrive at Lin'an City and cooperate with the army of martial arts. The power of the people of Wu Dynasty may collapse at any time.

Second, with Zong Fu destroying the Yangtze River defense line, this also naturally includes the option of attacking Zhenjiang. Even between February and April, Xi Yin’s troops made such a gesture several times, and they tried to attack Zhenjiang City and kill Zhou Junwu, which made the army of the Wu Dynasty highly nervous, and then because of the strict defense of the Wu Dynasty people, Xi Yin Also chose to give up.

But the war is like this. I am deceiving you to come and go, and every time it is possible to become true. Until April 18, Xi Yin once again turned to Zhenjiang. In the middle, the military of Wu Dynasty had to face several possibilities. If the battle line was immediately consolidated and concentrated on defending Zhenjiang, Xi Yin and others might also go south and attack Changzhou. And if Xi Yin really chose to attack Zhenjiang, the message that came out in the middle was really intriguing and frightening.

In the face of Xi Yin's return, the direction of Zhenjiang has been waiting, and Lin'an is waiting for the arrival of new news. Perhaps at some point in the future, Xiyin will transfer to Changzhou, Danyang or disperse for Jiangning. The news of everyone’s attention.

The news was running on the road south, and soon after, it alerted the entire city of Lin'an.

*

In Zhenjiang, soldiers rushed to the wall with a team, the morning breeze, the flag hunting. On the wilderness outside the city wall, the bodies of countless people fell between the potholes after the explosion. The Jurchen army drove the captured Han Chinese captives. On the night of arrival, they finished the Zhenjiang City in the most efficient way. Mines.

A trebuchet is being set up. Since Ning Yi rebelled, his implementation of the assembly line, standardized production, split assembly and other technologies, in some directions, even the Jurchen side is more in place.

The hot air balloon was rising in the morning breeze. On the wall of Zhenjiang, one of the hot air balloons also rose, and the powerful soldiers entered the frame of the hot air balloon.

Jun Wu was eating meticulously in the camp, and accompanied him, the four ladies of Prince Edward House Shen Ruxin.

Shen Ruxin is a Zhenjiang native. Before her battle with the Jurchens last year, her younger brother Shen Ruhua was asked to go to jail. Shen Ruxin fell ill in Jiangning, but finally she continued. At the beginning of this year, Jiangning was in a hurry. Jun Wu moved his wife and children to a safe place, and only brought Shen Ruxin to Zhenjiang.

At the beginning of the search for the sea, Jun Wu fled everywhere, the two sides came together because of their dependence, and now it is similar to the situation of dependence.

During the breakfast, some soldiers came in to report the completion of the change of the various departments. Jun Wu nodded and said that he knew. Soon after, he finished eating things, Shen Ruxin came over to sort out his clothes, and the couple went out together. The sky is full of clouds, and the blossoming city of the Yangtze River.

With regard to the preparation and mobilization of the war, it was already done yesterday, and there was a strange atmosphere in the military camp. Xi Yin’s storm on Zhenjiang is the most crazy and most likely battle in the entire battle. Eight years of operation, 100,000 troops guarding Zhenjiang, is not a weak brigade. At this time, when the martial arts wanted to consume the Xiyin troops, the other side turned around and stormed Zhenjiang. Strategically speaking, it was a desperate choice.

If Zhenjiang holds, Xiyin’s troops may be surrounded by the Wuchao army that is coming from all around. Junwu will complete the goal of defeating Tushanwei, and the fourth Nanzheng of Jurchen will also collapse.

However, considering Xi Yin's operational ability and He Weiwei's name, he made such a choice, which probably means that in the game of the previous few months, there are some flaws that have been caught by the other party.

"Beat the end of Yan Xiyin, I might exchange for the peace in this world..." On the night before, Jun Wu held his wife's hand and said, "But if you can't win, it is very likely...you and me Die here."

In my heart, I am actually very scared...

In the morning when the temperature and the sunshine are gentle, Jun Wu and his wife walked through the road between the military camps, and the soldiers would salute here. He closed his eyes and fantasized about the opponents outside the city. The other side smashed the world and killed them in the battlefield for decades. They succumbed to the weakest hours and ended up succumbing to death. ... He fantasized about the temperament of the world. Today, he is standing in front of such people.

He also remembered the teacher at Jiangning, remembering the choice he made when he made a big event. In this world, people would encounter tigers... I put my life out, we are all the same... China People, don't vote for the Gentiles... Don't want to go back alive...

If the monk is there, who Yunhan has died... He is joking with the smell of people, I really hope that the teacher will give this word to me...

I put my life out.

he thinks.

I won't retire...

......

Outside Zhenjiang City, huge hot air balloons flew to the city wall, and soon after, sprinkled large swaths of leaflets. At the same time, the messengers who shouldered the mission of persuading and declaring war went to the gates of Zhenjiang.

At the second moment, the messenger arrived at Zhenjiang Camp, and advised many generals of Junwu and Zhenjiang: "...In the past few months, the messengers of Gushen’s majesty have successively planned and persuaded the several generals among you. In Lin'an and throughout the Wu Dynasty, we also instigated the support of many officials and people with fame. Gu Shen adults must win Zhenjiang at the fastest speed, Zhenjiang must not be kept, to explain the situation to you, to avoid The necessary casualties, Gu Shen’s fate, I brought some lists and evidences of the big names. In addition, I also told you that when the war broke out, regardless of the outcome, the future wars will be in my country. The murderer! The Nine people are not jealous..."

In the speech, the messenger presented the list and evidence of the big stack of "golden descenders" to the front of the monarch. Among the camps, the generals have been eager to move, to come and kill the messenger who is confusing. Jun Wu looked at the stack of things on the table, waved and asked people to come in, twisted the messenger's tongue, and then threw things into the brazier.

"This is a replica of Ning Yi's plan to annihilate Liangshan. He picked up the teeth and the wisdom of the gods. But God wants to keep your life, but with this plan, you know that you can't go back alive."

The mouthful of the blood is the messenger who laughs on the ground...

At noon, the head of the messenger was hung up the gate, and Yan Yanyin was outside the city, looking at it with no expression.

On the afternoon of April 22, the Battle of Zhenjiang began.

*

The carriage passed through the streets of the city and went to the palace. Qin Lan was sitting in the carriage, holding the message from the hand, shaking slightly. His spirit was highly concentrated, and his mind was circling a variety of things. This was the tension during the big event, so that it was not until the carriage. After the Royals called him several times, he reacted and went to the place.

Through the long road between the palaces, Qin Lan saw Zhou Wei in the living room on the side of the royal study. The emperor wore a large robe, his hair was messy, and the clothes belt was not tied. He sat on the side of the bed and held a few hands. Sheet of paper, it seems that you have lost your soul, Qin Qin came in and asked for a long time after the ceremony, Zhou Hao was back.

"Can you know, the news knows?" Zhou squinted.

"...back down, you know."

"Xiyin Chong Zhenjiang went, Xiyin attacked Zhenjiang... Why did Xi Yin attack Zhenjiang... Everyone said that Zhenjiang is dead, why should he attack Zhenjiang." Zhou Wei waved the paper, "Qin Qing, You said, you said..."

"Chen and Chen are not sure..." Qin Yu hesitated for a moment, kneeling down, "Chen is guilty..."

Zhou Wei was there, and then the paper in his hand waved: "What sin you have! You talk to you! Why did Xi Yin attack Zhenjiang? They said that Zhenjiang is a dead end! They said that Xi Yin will be attacked by Zhenjiang. Drag there. Why did Xi Yin attack, Qin Qing, you mentioned it before, you don’t pretend to be stupid, you said..."

"Chen and Chen did not dare to speak..."

Zhou slammed out: "You said -"

"That may be..." Qin Hao was there, saying it was difficult. "Xi Yin has a perfect strategy..."

The room was quiet, and Zhou Hao had been stunned for a long time: "Hey, you know, you know, they have to do it... the beasts, the gangsters...they...the Wu Dynasty raised them for more than two hundred years, they... They want to sell their sons, they have to sell them... If you let 朕 know who it is, 朕诛 九 九 九 九 九 九 九 九 九 九 九 九 九 十 十 十 十 十 十 十 十 十 十 十 十 十 十

He muttered for a while and turned to Qin: "Qin Qing, is there any way? To save the son of the monk, is there any way? Around Zhenjiang, Changzhou has soldiers... How many people can send the past, from Jiangning to the Navy No, those people... Believe it or not, Qin Qing, you have to help, your son can’t have something... you give it up!”

Qin Lan said there: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. The Royal Highness of the Prince is sure to have countermeasures. Perhaps the soldiers of Changzhou and Jiangning are already on the road. Perhaps Xi Yin has a plan, but he is seen by His Royal Highness Prince. In that case, Zhenjiang is the place where Xi Yin’s defeat. We are on both sides... across the place, it is really...not to intervene..."

"Hey, I know what the gang is!! I know the virtues of the gang! I know!" Zhou slammed out. "Hey know! How many big men are waiting to sell this porch! Look Jingping's gangsters! The son of 朕! In front of them! They have to drag their legs! And the black flag! You have already released goodwill! What reaction do they have! You know killing and killing! You raped! Junwu is his Disciple! Send troops and send troops! Just like Qin Qing said! Black flag is just for the reputation of Bo! Waiting for killing - who can help Junwu -"

Zhou Xi’s hysterical, Chad’s entire palace was shaking, and later, the face was stunned, and the mouth was full of spit. Qin Lan climbed up and stood beside him. Zhou Hao’s arm trembled and walked inside the temple. Sometimes he whispered to himself, and later he whispered: “Qin Qing is right, there is always a way, there is always a way. Perhaps I have already seen Xi Yin’s plan in the past. There are ways... I’m not using it urgently, and it’s useless...”

He comforted himself for a long time and was quiet for a long time. Qin Lan straightened straight: "So far, I can only wait for the battle report on the front line."

His voice did not have the previous sorrow, and there was a faint power that made people feel steadfast. Zhou Hao nodded and soon sat down on the edge of the bed.

"Hey, you have nothing to do..." He looked at Qin. "The son of You can't do anything. Junwu is a good Prince. He must be a good emperor in the future. Qin Qing, he can't have anything... The beast..."

The skylight slanted in from the window and the doorway, and the cool wind swayed the tulle inside the temple, immersing the emperor's weak and weak whisper in the afternoon wind.

In the southwest, a corner of the Chengdu Plain, Niutou County, the outside world will also be called the old bull head.

It is located at the junction of the jurisdiction of the Huaxia Army and the jurisdiction of the Wu Dynasty. The terrain is complex and the population is quite large. However, since last year, due to the active efforts of the veteran cadres and members of the Huaxia Army stationed here, this area has won the number nearby. Positive identification of villages and counties - members of Huaxia Army have helped many people in the vicinity to help, donate medicines, and set up private schools to let the surrounding children go to school free of charge. This spring, the opening and planting of new land, the people against the Chinese army The enthusiasm has been greatly developed. If it is in later generations, it can be regarded as a place like "learning Leifeng advanced county".

Ning Yi came over to commend the advanced personnel stationed here. In the afternoon, Ning Yi gave lectures to some young officers and cadres gathered in Niutou County.

"...sometimes, there are some things that are very interesting to say... Our biggest opponents today, Jurchens, their rise is very rapid. The generation that was born in a worrying situation has a very strong acceptance of the outside world. I once told you that when attacking the Liao Kingdom, their siege techniques were still weak, and they were quickly upgraded in the process of destroying the Liao Dynasty. In the process of attacking the Wu Dynasties, they gathered a large number of craftsmen. Constantly improving, Wu Dynasty people are far behind..."

"...but at the same time, when the environment is comfortable, their second generation and third generation, the corruption is very fast, the staff of the staff is joking, if we did not fight in the years of Xiao Canghe, gave the woman The real people are alert, and now the situation in the Jiangnan War will be completely different... The Jurchens conquered the Liao Kingdom and almost stopped the world before they stopped. The uprising of Fangla was the same as the equality of the law. They stopped. The speed is much faster, just after laying down in Hangzhou, the top level has begun to enjoy..."

"...you don't have to laugh, we Huaxia Army is facing this problem... In this process, what is the driving force for their progress? It is culture and spirit. The first Jurchens suffered, they have a sense of urgency. This sense of urgency runs through all of their spirits. They learn very quickly, but they stop when they are too peaceful, until our rise gives them a feeling of not being practical, but if the world is too peaceful, they will be destined to move into a rapidly falling curve. ......"

"...we must pay attention to this matter, we will slide into such a curve, the struggle of Xiao Cang River, the hardships of the northwest, it has been several years, we have laid down the Chengdu Plain, the Wu Dynasty is a mess... we even started Blindly optimistic..."

He spoke in the classroom, Juan appeared outside the door, stood there and signaled to him, Ning Yi went out and saw the urgent message.

"...Xi Yin attacked Zhenjiang, the situation may be very complicated, the General Staff said there, do you want to go back immediately..."

Ning Yi folded the message and looked at the small county town that looked out: "When the whip is too long, how can it be rushed back? We have more important things here."

Juaner nodded and was about to leave. Ning Yi reached out and touched her arm: "Let the news, we will leave early tomorrow."

"Yes."

......

More than 80 miles away from the old bull's head, watermelon took people, and the horse rushed into Zhangcun.

The horse team was like a whirlwind. It stopped before the courtyard where the family lived at this time. The watermelon came down immediately, and Wenwen, who was playing in front of the courtyard, greeted him: "Gua, are you coming back?"

"Wen Wen, there is something wrong with me, I will bring you delicious food next time..." The words of watermelon stay in the air, and the figure has already flown to the yard of more than ten feet, and quickly rushed into the study, only Su Taner Which organizes things: "Watermelon?"

"What about the public? Where did the others go?"

"He... went out for two days, for that...the advanced individual..."

"He went to the old bull?"

"Well~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Su Taner nodded and her eyes began to become serious. "What happened? something wrong? ”

"When did the public go?"

"At noon the day before yesterday, I said that it should have arrived last night. The old bull is on the side. At this time, the Wu Dynasty people want to start? There are garrisons there..."

"That's what they said..." Watermelon whispered, and Su Taner gave a slight glimpse: "What do you say?"

"I am not sure, I hope... I think more." Watermelon's eyes hesitated a little, and after a while, the wind suddenly disappeared into the room. "I will rush over immediately... don't worry."

......

Old bull head.

After finishing the lesson, going down the hillside is a river that passes through the county. The sunset is about to fall, and the sand is white. Ning Yi stands by the river and looks at the moment.

After that, the people who came to visit came...
