Xu Fengnian stood up suddenly, whistled softly, and the war horse that was drinking water by the river came galloping over. After getting on the horse, Xu Fengnian grabbed the reins with one hand, clenched his fist with the other, knocked hard on the shoulder, and grinned. £¼¡²¡´£¨£¼{
Far far away in the south, the old man kept walking, crying and murmuring in a low voice.
"How do you feel at this time?"
The old man finally stopped and looked around. The most he could see was the yellow sand of the desert.
Li Yishan, the counselor of Tingchao Pavilion, had no burial place after his death, and his ashes were scattered outside the pass.
The old man smiled casually and said: "Yi Shan! I am not as good as you before or after life."
At the gate of the south city of Juibei City, Xu Fengnian suddenly stopped his horse and turned around. The slight strangeness that he was keenly aware of with his celestial body was fleeting, and he returned to calm in an instant, leaving no trace.
Like an autumn leaf falling on a pond, there are few ripples, quiet and peaceful.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away from the unknown corridor in Liuzhou, the Liuzhou infantry formation confrontation blocked Beimang's 50,000 Southern Dynasty border riders!
Liangzhou General Shi Fu did indeed lead the 6,000 Qingyuan Army on horseback and fire to support the corridor battlefield, as stated in the military document previously submitted to the feudal lord of Jubeicheng. Instead, he stood firm on the plains south of the corridor. Heel, patiently waiting for the main force of Huang Song Pu's troops to retreat northward in a hurry. At the same time, it is necessary to prevent the Southern Dynasty's border cavalry reinforcements from going south to join up with the remnants of Huang Song Pu's troops. The Liangzhou general only sent a symbolic scout to the corridor to investigate the military situation. Shi Fu stopped his horse and looked south, always turning his back to the bloody battlefield destined to pile up mountains of corpses. His face was calm and he could be described as having a heart of stone.
On the main battlefield of Laomu Mountain in the far south, both Liang and Mang suffered the most heavy casualties in their third charge and formation. Kou Jianghuai invested the cavalry army belonging to the Liuzhou governor's mansion, and Huang Songpu also used more than 600 genuine heavy troops. The cavalry is equipped with both men and horses. Each particularly tall and strong Beimang war horse is equipped with a face curtain, a chicken neck, a chest, a body armor, a back and a parasitic. It is collectively called the cavalry. They are all equipped with six armors. They are hard to break with spears and crossbows. Difficult to explain. The young general Qifu Longguan, who temporarily took over the military power of the Liuzhou Cavalry from the hands of the general Kou Jianghuai, once again led the remaining cavalry of the direct attack battalion and went straight to the 600 heavy cavalry. However, Qifu Longguan took the lead in a desperate charge. , Xu Longxiang personally led three hundred dragon-elephant elite cavalry, gradually catching up with the iron hooves of the direct collision camp on the battlefield, and finally kept pace with the direct collision camp and started the formation together!
After three charges, the Liuzhou cavalry army was almost completely dead and wounded, and the Longxiang army was also seriously injured.
On the other hand, although the elite cavalry of the Pu tribe of the Huang Song Dynasty also suffered heavy losses, the largest number of Yi cavalry miraculously maintained a very high level of integrity, with as many as 30,000 cavalry. According to the battlefield situation at Laomu Mountain, they did not even need 50,000 troops to suppress reinforcements. Rushing here, coach Huang Songpu has full confidence in wiping out the main force in Liuzhou's field battle.
But at this moment, a majestic cavalry army burst into view on the plains east of Laohu Mountain! That scene was like the sun rising over the East China Sea!
This elite cavalry army, which rushes to Laonu Mountain without any warning, is lined up in a line, like the tide of the Guangling River, advancing rapidly from east to west.
This newly born cavalry must be the most easily identifiable cavalry in the Beiliang frontier army, apart from the Snow Dragon Cavalry, because each rider has a snow-white eagle feather inserted into his helmet, swaying in the wind! There are arrow feathers protruding from both sides of each saddle, like two groups of reed flowers overwhelming the snow!
The sudden advance of the cavalry was like heavy snow billowing between heaven and earth.
Not only was the iron armor stained with blood, but two iron guns had been replaced. Beimang coach Huang Songpu, whose face was covered in blood, turned his head and looked east, with his eyes cracked.
On the Laomu Mountain battlefield, after three fierce formations on both sides, sparing no effort, their Beimang Cavalry was now exactly where the Liuzhou Cavalry was originally. This was originally the plan of Beimang, the number one man in the Southern Dynasties in the past, to win in Liuzhou. When the main force of the state's field battle force was severely damaged and their energy was at the bottom, as long as the Beimang Cavalry was located on the southern battlefield, they could not form a natural line of defense to prevent the Liuzhou Cavalry from turning around and retreating southward to Qingcang City. However, the facts proved that , the old commander's plan succeeded, but Kou Jianghuai's plan also came true. The young Liuzhou general had no intention of withdrawing from Laomu Mountain, and made it clear that he wanted to outflank Beimang's army in turn!
Huang Songpu did not hesitate at all and ordered the entire army to break out to the north. Even if they were blocked by ambushes on the way north, they must not get entangled in the battle and just go north! As long as they meet the reinforcements that should be arriving at the northern battlefield of Laomu Mountain, the victory will still be with Beimang!
Qifu Longguan and Xu Longxiang Li Mofan, these three old woman mountain generals who fought side by side on the battlefield, did not even need to greet each other, they had already tacitly changed their formations quickly, from the left, center and right three-army wild goose cone formation to a horizontal formation. The long snake formation stretched as far as possible to draw out a long front. The wind and water took turns. It was the turn of the front, middle and rear armies of the Liuzhou frontier army to charge. The Longxiang cavalry of Li Mofan tribe was located in the front two rows. Xu Longxiang led the army in the middle, begging for Long. Guan's remaining Liuzhou cavalry was at the end. What they have to do is no longer to dig out formations to kill the enemy, they just need to try their best toJust block the horse hooves of the main cavalry army of the Pu tribe of Huang Song Dynasty from breaking through!
After Yuan Nanting's white-feathered light cavalry sprayed three waves of overwhelming arrows on the flanks of Beimang's main army, another six thousand cavalry with overwhelming momentum found the opportunity, neatly drew their swords from their sheaths, and rushed into the formation!
It was like cutting off the waist and crotch of the Beimang Cavalry Formation, cutting off Huang Songpu's direct cavalry and Wanyan's private cavalry from the 30,000 Yizi cavalry!
The remaining white feather Qingqi, the main force, began to circle the arc towards the north. They did not engage in a melee with the Beimang army. Instead, relying on the advantage of the light cavalry with extremely light loads, the cavalry formation that originally charged from east to west quickly formed an arc heading north.
"If anyone had just climbed to the top of Old Woman Mountain and overlooked the battlefield, they might have mistakenly thought that this brightly armored light cavalry was an ally of the Prairie Cavalry, heading north together on one left and one on the right.
In the constantly despair, the long -handed long -term husband of Beidang, led the disabled to kill the right -wing Bai Yu lightly.
It¡¯s a pity that the heroic scene ended like stones hitting the river, completely unable to disrupt the pace of Bai Yu Qingqi¡¯s horses.
The White Feather Qingqi, who had superb riding skills and abundant physical strength, easily moved slightly to the right after suffering diagonal charges from the Beimang cavalry. The leftmost cavalry formation, which was originally moving straight forward, had depressions everywhere, as if a With only his pockets, he allowed Beimang's dead warriors and cavalry to crash into it. What awaited these prairie barbarians was not the melee-fighting Beiliangdao, but the extremely skilled riding and shooting, and the two hundred and three hundred horsemen of the Southern Dynasty. The cavalrymen were shot off their horses one after another like being cut into rice fields. There was no tragedy in the collision, and they did not die like a bloody death on horseback. Faced with the precise arrows of Baiyu Qingqi, A branch penetrated his head and neck and penetrated his chest. The Beimang cavalry, who could even continue to ride his horse forward for ten steps before falling off his horse, could only feel helpless and helpless.
In the northernmost area of ??the Old Woman Mountain battlefield, only dust can be seen vaguely.
It was Ning Emei¡¯s four thousand iron pagodas that were inserted between the two battlefields!
At the top of the Old Woman Mountain, Kou Jianghuai said calmly: "The overall situation has been decided, Huang Song Pu is finished."
Chen Xiliang also had a panoramic view of the battlefield. A smile appeared on his pale face. He turned around and said in a hoarse voice: "General Kou is worthy of the four words 'use soldiers like gods'."
Kou Jianghuai looked to the east, "I'm just afraid of losing something big because of something small."
Chen Xiliang asked in confusion: "After the war at Laonu Mountain, what's wrong with sending troops eastward to reinforce and reject Beicheng?"
Kou Jianghuai shook his head and said, "Who said we were going to Jubeicheng?"
Chen Xiliang was stunned.
At the foot of Old Woman Mountain, Li Hanlin gathered the white-horse crossbowmen and prepared to enter the battlefield again.
The secret retinue who was sent here by the young vassal king to protect the white-horse captain, Emperor Wu City Lou Huang was about to mount his horse to follow, but Li Hanlin said with determination: "Lou Huang, you go directly to Jubeicheng! The great master of martial arts, follow I'm eating sand on the back of my butt, it's so boring!"
Lou Huang didn't seem surprised at all. He sat on the horse and looked at the mostly young faces. Finally, he smiled and nodded to Li Hanlin and joked: "Boy, don't die greedy for credit. Otherwise, your Northern Liang King will not be able to spare me."
Li Hanlin grinned and said, "Tell Brother Nian for me that we agreed when we were young that we would pee together at the Xijing Temple in Beimang. I'll take care of his share!"
Lou Huang rolled his eyes and reminded: "Then remember to drink more water beforehand."
Li Hanlin laughed and said, "You can even drink horse urine!"
Before Lou Huang rode away, he gave a thumbs up and said, "I'm convinced!"
The Battle of the Corridor, six battles and six defeats!
The total 50,000 cavalry troops in the border town of Beimang and Southern Dynasty were driven completely crazy. They charged six times and defeated only more than 20,000 people!
Even though they knew that they were probably unable to rush to the battlefield of Old Woman Mountain, and even if they were destined to be severely punished by His Majesty the Emperor, who was destined to be angered by Long Yan, these red-eyed prairie cavalry still launched the seventh offensive without hesitation.
As long as Cao Wei leads 9,000 fine cavalry into the battlefield from the north entrance of the corridor, even if he only has one stick of incense at night, the Landa Mountain monk soldiers and 3,000 Liuzhou soldiers will be completely wiped out, and literally no one will be left!
When Cao Wei personally led eight hundred dead men to cut through Beimang's formation and fought all the way to the circular formation where only two hundred men were left, there were only corpses.
Along the way, broken iron shields, broken rifles, broken swords, and destroyed hard bows and crossbows were scattered everywhere.
That so-called simple circular formation was nothing more than the monk soldiers of Landa Mountain and the young men of Liuzhou who were all seriously injured, waiting to be killed.
The person who really resisted the charge of the Beimang Barbarian Cavalry was a slender man wearing armor and covered in blood.
Emperor WuThe great disciple of City King Xianzhi, the Central Plains Grandmaster is Yu Bridegroom!
This man was holding a Mamo-killing knife, and there were two cold knives hanging on his left and right waists. No fewer than 900 of the Beimang cavalry died under his sword!
Before the groom, he had personally promised the young vassal king that he would ensure that Xie Xijie would not die!
It was not impossible for him to force Xie Xijie to leave the corridor and withdraw from this bloody battlefield.
But when Xie Xijie fought bloody battles in person and formed a formation to defeat the Beimang Cavalry for the fifth time, he firmly shook his head towards the groom.
Yu Bridegroom laughed it off and did not force anyone to do anything. Instead, he picked up a long spear and a Mo Dao from the battlefield.
The two of them fought side by side.
Until Xie Xijie was seriously injured, the Liuzhou lieutenant general who fell to the ground was grabbed by the shoulders from the hooves of the Beimang cavalry by a middle-aged monk responsible for Xie Xijie's safety, and then heavily thrown to the rear. The exhausted monk himself was swarmed by dozens of horsemen and died on the spot.
Cao Wei's cavalry rushed out from behind, which became the last straw that broke the camel's back. After the Beimang cavalry barely resisted the charge of Cao Wei's leading cavalry, they were quickly defeated.
It can be said that these Southern Dynasty military cavalry did not dare to fight or die, otherwise they would not have charged to death seven times. However, Cao Wei's cavalry appeared unreasonably, too abrupt, too fierce, especially in a place that was not wide. In the corridor, a total of nine thousand cavalry launched a continuous impact, as if there were only endless figures of Beiliang cavalry in the field of vision. The Beimang cavalry was defeated like a mountain. After a captain of ten thousand led his direct line of 700 cavalry to make a final charge against the groom and the dilapidated circular formation that was clearly on the verge of collapse but refused to fall, all the southern side cavalry They all voluntarily bypassed the unfamiliar martial arts master who was capable of blocking ten thousand people. They quickly bypassed the circular formation and decisively fled southward from both sides.
Cao Wei jumped off the horse, staggered and almost fell, and stumbled into the circle. He finally saw the young general sitting cross-legged with his sword stationary. The helmet was long gone, the armor was broken, and the blood blurred the originally elegant face.
A young man from Liuzhou with only one arm had to gently press his elbow on the general's back.
Cao Wei knelt on one knee, stretched out his trembling palms, and gently wiped away the blood on the young general's face.
The young general had actually lost consciousness a long time ago and was just holding on for a breath to prevent himself from falling.
Yu Bridegroom threw the Mo Dao fiercely, splitting a Beimang cavalry captain and his horse in half, who was galloping south.
He came to Cao Wei and Xie Xijie, squatted down behind him, and reached out to hold Xie Xijie's wrist. "Not to mention the external injuries, they have already hurt the internal organs. If you are lucky enough, you can have a chance of survival."
Without saying a word, Cao Wei turned around and punched the groom on the chest. His eyes were red and he shouted angrily: "Xu Fengnian wants you to stay with Xie Xijue just for this bullshit 'a glimmer of hope'?!"
Yu Bridegroom didn¡¯t say anything, but continued to lower his head to bring a gentle energy to Xie Xiqiao.
Xie Xijie didn¡¯t want to leave. Yu Binggang, who had never been on the battlefield, felt that he shouldn¡¯t leave for some reason, so neither of them left.
Xie Xijie felt that he should die here, while Yu Groom felt that dying in the yellow sand outside Liuzhou Pass was not too bad.
But after rescuing the Liuzhou deputy general whose life was hanging by a thread many times, the latter said angrily: "Yu Bridegroom! Every time you save me, you will kill three or four less people. Do you want me to teach you how to settle the score?!"
After Cao Wei punched the bridegroom, he did not retract his arm directly, but unclenched his fist, slapped the Central Plains master heavily on the shoulder, and choked out: "Thank you!"
Yu Bridegroom still didn¡¯t raise his head, and just asked: ¡°After Xie Xiqiao¡¯s injury stabilizes, can I entrust him to you and send him to Qingcang, Liuzhou? I want to go to Jubeicheng.¡±
Cao Wei nodded and said nothing.
After a long time, the bridegroom loosened his fingers, stood up slowly, put his hands on the handle of the cold knife at his waist, and asked: "Is it against your Beiliang military law to lend me two swords for now?"
Cao Wei took a deep breath, shook his head and said with a smile: "From now on, you, the bridegroom, will be a cavalry captain under me, General Cao. How about that?! You earned the battle at the Corridor through your solid military exploits! Not to mention two cold knives, it won¡¯t be a problem if you have them all!¡±
The bridegroom laughed it off and joined the Beiliang Frontier Army to become a cavalry officer under Cao Wei. It was absolutely impossible for Wang Xianzhi, who was dedicated to reaching the top of martial arts. However, it was not convenient for the bridegroom to refuse this kind offer at first. He lowered his head and stared at the person being Xie Xiqiao, who was pulled back from the gate of hell, glanced at him, then walked a few steps further, tiptoed, and his figure instantly rose from the ground.
Go straight to Jubeicheng!
In Jubei City, the young vassal prince and three NanThe day when the great master of Xinjiang Martial Arts entered the city.
Liuzhou¡¯s great victory at Old Woman Mountain, news of victory spreads into Jubeicheng!
The whole city was noisy and lively.
But almost an hour later, another piece of urgent intelligence came to the vassal residence. Beimang's army of 400,000 riders will attack Beicheng in three days at the latest!
After the master of swordsmanship Mao Shulang entered Jubei City, he asked to climb the city wall. After receiving the nod of approval from the feudal lord, the burly old man began to walk alone along the horse path, stopping and walking in silence.
Cheng Baishuang, an old scholar in green shirt, quickly broke through the realm at Xiaolianhua Peak in Wudang Mountain and directly entered the realm of great celestial phenomena. After accompanying his friend Ji Liuan into the feudal residence, he stopped in the ceremony room to discuss knowledge with Wang Jijiu, a literary master who was well-known in both the government and the public.
Only Ji Liuan, the guest of the Dragon Palace in Southern Xinjiang, came to Ertang's study to visit the young vassal king whose name was well known in the Central Plains.
Xu Fengnian did not deliberately go downstairs to greet him, but stood in front of the study door with a smile on his face, as if he were a courteous corporal.
After leading Ji Liuan into the study, he personally handed him a cup of "tribute tea" from the Beiliang frontier army. After Ji Liuan took the tea and sat down, he said straight to the point: "Your Majesty, if I am willing to go out of the city to fight, is there a place for me?"
Xu Fengnian also asked straightforwardly: "Is it just a formality to gain fame and reputation in the Central Plains? Or is it really a matter of letting go and fighting to the end?"
Ji Liuan gently twisted the tea lid and rubbed the rim of the cup, raised his head and asked: "What's the difference?"
Xu Fengnian smiled and said: "The former is simple. It doesn't even require Mr. Ji to actually join the battlefield. I will let Fu Shui Yang Ying and Fang Fang release the news and build momentum for Mr. Ji."
Ji Liuan smiled and said, "What if you choose the latter?"
Xu Fengnian said calmly: "Then Mr. Ji will probably have to give his last words to the two old friends from southern Xinjiang first, because Beimang's 400,000 troops will invade Beicheng within three days, and Mr. Ji will not have the opportunity to follow the Beiliang cavalry to fight outside the pass. Now that we have the chance, there is only an extremely difficult offensive and defensive battle to fight. To be honest, even I, the king, am not sure that I will be able to defend Jubei City."
Ji Liuan, who was sitting on the chair opposite the desk, remained silent. He had not yet taken a sip of the cup of tea in his hand.
Ji Liu'an drank the tea in the cup in one gulp and placed it gently on the desk. Then he held his sword across his knees and said with a calm smile: "If I hadn't followed Cheng Baishuang to Beiliang this time, I wouldn't care about the outcome of the Liangmang war. But I Now that we are here, we might as well take this opportunity to get angry!"
Xu Fengnian said in a young voice: "I have worked hard for decades to hone my martial arts, and it is not easy to become a master."
Ji Liuan suddenly laughed angrily and said: "Speaking of the realm of martial arts, are you scolding me, Ji Liuan, for living like a dog for decades?!"
Xu Fengnian was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Ji, don't say anything if you see through it."
Ji Liuan glared angrily.
At this moment, Ji Liuan quickly turned his head and looked around, and was horrified to see a girl hanging upside down outside the window.
She pointed towards Xu Fengnian towards the entrance of the courtyard.
Xu Fengnian said softly: "I understand, don't worry."
Not long after, Deng Tai'a, the peach blossom sword god with two swords hanging on his waist, slowly walked into the study.
Ji Liuan stood up and nodded to Deng Tai'a.
The sword forest in the world has always been full of beautiful trees and good talents. However, after the death of the previous generation of sword god Li Chungang, there is only one in front of him who can be deservedly praised as the most outstanding swordsman in the forest.
Since Ji Liuan uses a sword, regardless of his arrogant temperament or his status in the world, he should respect this ordinary-looking middle-aged swordsman.
After Deng Tai'a returned the courtesy calmly, he turned to look at the young vassal king and asked: "I won't drink the tea anymore. When will we start fighting with Beimang? Where do you need me to appear?"
Xu Fengnian's words were not surprising, "I may have to trouble you to take action twice. The first time is very quick, just in the next few days. The second time, maybe it's just you and me, and the battlefield will be further away."
Deng Tai'a said in an unwavering tone: "Bringing two swords is enough."
After saying this, Deng Tai'a turned and left. Ji Liu'an also said goodbye to Xu Fengnian, followed in the footsteps of the Peach Blossom Sword God, and asked about some swordsmanship puzzles.
Wen Dao has a successive attack, and the surgery industry has specialized.
Deng Tai'a can now be said to be the pinnacle of swordsmen in the world, both in terms of swordsmanship and swordsmanship.
The most important thing is that although Ji Liu'an only cultivated in the Zhixuan realm, he had the three swords at the bottom of the box that had never been seen in the world. He believed that he was powerful enough to kill the masters of the Celestial Realm. Deng Tai'a had always been recognized as the best in Zhixuan realm in the world. Victory Cat Han Shengxuan! How could Ji Liuan not be itchy and not want to ask for advice?
On the same day, there were also Xuelu Spear Saint Li Houchhong and otherMany top men from the world entered Jubei City, but Xu Fengnian did not show up, even skipping polite greetings. Only after hearing that a certain blind female violinist had entered the city, Xu Fengnian walked to the gate of the feudal residence in person, and the two people who had faced each other in life and death in the past walked to the meeting hall together.
Xu Fengnian asked curiously: "Miss Xue, do you have something to tell Su Su or Old Master Lu?"
The blind woman carrying the piano bag shook her head and said: "I will repay Su Su's guilt for Beiliang."
Xu Fengnian stopped and said, "Have you ever thought that once you die outside Liangzhou Pass, Su Su will have a lifetime of regrets, and who will make up for it?"
Xue Songguan said in a cold tone as always: "I only know that Su Su is not happy in life. She has not done what I can do, and I will never be happy in this life."
Xu Fengnian shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Guan Xue Song, I advise you to go back to Xishu and return to Su Su!"
Xue Songguan also shook his head and said: "I will never let him continue to think that 'it's useless to be Su Su'!"
Xu Fengnian blurted out: "Have you ever thought about what Su Su wants, and what she wants most?"
Xue Songguan turned her head, blinded, she gently "looked" at the young vassal king.
Xu Fengnian was immediately speechless.
???????? What is the difference between the unknown things I have done and this seemingly unreasonable and stubborn woman?
Xu Fengnian exhaled heavily and said with a bitter smile: "Then stay."
Xue Songguan nodded.
The two continued to move forward, and Xu Fengnian suddenly said: "At this moment, Subibake must be jealous."
Xue Songguan smiled knowingly, with the corners of his mouth raised and his face full of gentleness.
Xu Fengnian hummed and said: "Miss Xue, you can actually fall in love with a guy like Subibake. It's really"
The young vassal king did not continue. Xue Songguan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you want to say that you are blind, but I am blind to begin with."
Xu Fengnian was a little embarrassed.
Xu Fengnian stopped as if struck by lightning, and his body became stiff.
Xue Songguan frowned, and without turning around, he already felt three powerful qi forces appearing behind him, one of which was even more majestic and suffocating.
A pair of young men and women had shocking blood stains on their bodies.
A middle-aged man holding an iron gun strode towards Xu Fengnian and Xue Songguan.
Xu Fengnian slowly turned around and looked at the three people who should have been at Huaiyang Pass, Xu Yanbing, the contemporary sword crown Wu Liuding in the Wu Family Sword Tomb, and the sword attendant Cuihua.
Xu Yanbing smiled and said: "Don't worry, Huaiyang Pass and the outer city are still there."
Xu Fengnian was relieved, but his face was still solemn.
Xu Yanbing explained: "It was Chu Lushan who asked the three of us to return to Beicheng. He said that leaving the remaining eighty swordsmen of the Wu family would be enough. The three of us just stare at each other all day long. It doesn't make much sense. We might as well go back Reject Beicheng.¡±
Just as Xu Fengnian was about to speak, Wu Liuding said impatiently: "What kind of temper does Fatty Chu have? It's not like you, surnamed Xu, don't know. If he makes up his mind to drive us away, we may not even be able to eat in Huaiyangguan. Chu Lushan actually said that That¡¯s right, to deliver intelligence at critical moments, our Eighty Cavalry of the Sword Tomb is enough.¡±
Xu Yanbing glared at the young Jian Guan who spoke freely, and the latter shut up in anger.
Xu Yanbing whispered: "Chu Lushan said that we will definitely win Beiliang at Laonu Mountain. Next, the Liuzhou frontier army should go all the way north to take Xijing. The Beimang Middle Road army can only speed up the attack on Jubeicheng, let's have a competition. It¡¯s a gamble to see who can break through the nest faster. Chu Lushan also said that as long as Jubeicheng can hold on until the winter snow melts, then his Huaiyang Pass can last until the turn of next spring and summer.¡±
Xu Fengnian breathed a sigh of relief, "Since he said so, I don't have anything to worry about anymore."
Xu Fengnian asked Wu Liuding, Swordsman Cuihua and Xue Songguan to stay in the third hall wing, while he and Xu Yanbing went to the study.
After Xu Yanbing entered the study, he said in a deep voice: "Chu Lushan said one last thing, asking the prince to remember that if we still want our Beiliang frontier army to have the last laugh, then the Snow Dragon Cavalry and the two heavy cavalry armies, It must not be used in this war!"
Xu Fengnian was speechless.
To put it bluntly, Chu Lushan just didn¡¯t want the last members of the Beiliang Cavalry to die on the way to rescue Huaiyang Pass.
Bai Yu personally saw Qi Xianxia off from the city. Mr. Bai Lian was not good at riding a horse, so he got into a carriage, and Qi Xianxia rode with him.
The carriage stopped to the north of the bridge across the river. Bai Yu got off the carriage and Qi Xianxia led the horse. The two of them walked to the middle of the wooden bridge.
Qi Xianxia couldn't help but ask: "Why did you come to Jubeicheng to serve as the governor of Liangzhou instead of staying in Jibeicheng?"??zhou? "
Bai Yu rested his elbows on the bridge railing, held his chin, looked at the slowly flowing river, and said calmly: "On the one hand, if you stay in the mansion of the governor of Liangzhou, you will have to rely on others to breathe. Song Dongming will be killed by the deputy manager who is in charge of Qingliang Mountain." To suppress one end, instead of fighting in close quarters in a chess game that is bound to lose, and making both of them covered in mud and ugly, it is better to change the chessboard. Of course, this reason is very far-fetched, and it is just used to convince myself, even Even a layman like you in the officialdom may not be willing to believe it. In fact, the reason why I chose to follow King Xinliang to Jubei City was not only hoping to become a more trusted minister than Dongming of Song Dynasty, but also had selfish motives."
Qi Xianxia frowned and said, "Selfish?"
Bai Yu turned his head slightly, with a smile on his face, and asked with a smile: "Do you know what scholarly anger is?"
Qi Xianxia, ??who was already in a bad mood, snorted coldly and said angrily: "A reckless man like me doesn't understand the ambitions of you scholars!"
Bai Yu blinked, "Are you really not understanding, or are you just pretending not to understand?"
Qi Xianxia kept a straight face and said nothing.
Bai Yu stopped asking questions and looked at the river again. He just took a step back, shook his sleeves with his wrists, and stood upright with his clothes straight.
"An era and a country probably need certain people to stand up resolutely at certain moments and stand in a certain position, just stand there! Never step back!"
"As long as you stand there, you are shouldering the responsibility and doing your part!"
"On the battlefield, Liu Jinnu of Hutou City and Wei Jingtang of Hengshui City in Jizhou were like this. In the temple, Zhang Julu was even more like this!"
¡°Now it¡¯s the turn of Xinliang King Xu Fengnian!¡±
Bai Yu narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance, "I don't care what purpose Xu Fengnian had or what his original intention was, he finally chose to stand there. Anyway, I, Bai Yu, only look at the results, not the reasons! So, I also choose to stand here. . Right and wrong, let me die and let your descendants judge."
Bai Yu laughed and said: "I don't like the later generations to describe this soul-stirring war, and I don't like the later generations of scholars to turn over that book over and over, only to find that not a single scholar died here in the end!"
Qi Xianxia sighed softly.
Bai Yu suddenly said sadly: "I didn't feel much before, but now I find more and more that the sarcasm towards Beiliang is revealed in the conversations in the official offices of those in the Central Plains court, and those condescending pointing fingers are How abominable.¡±
Qi Xianxia suddenly got on his horse and said in a deep voice: "Let's go! If you continue to listen, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave either!"
Bai Yu laughed loudly, "Let's go, go back to your Central Plains!"
As expected, Qi Xianxia clamped his horse's belly and rode away.
Bai Yu didn't watch Qi Xianxia leave all the time. He couldn't see clearly anyway, so he didn't bother in vain.
Bai Yu suddenly stretched out his hand and slapped the bridge railing, singing loudly: "The wind is blowing! How strong I am, Beiliang!"
Wang Linquan, who was jokingly called the God of Wealth in Beiliangwu, left Qingliang Mountain Wutong Courtyard with a smile after meeting his daughter Wang Chudong.
"When no one was around, Wang Linquan's smile faded away. This old man who was rich in Qingzhou and Beiliang in Beiliang only had a look of exhaustion on his face.
Xu Weixiong told him something in private. As Wang Chudong's father, he couldn't refuse, but as a veteran of the Xu family, his conscience was uneasy.
Zhao Yutai, who was once the swordsman next to Princess Wu Su, gently pushed the wheelchair and came to the shore of Tingchao Lake with Xu Weixiong. The woman whose face was covered with armor was hesitant to speak.
Xu Weixiong said softly: "Auntie, I won't go to Jubeicheng, and you shouldn't go either."
Zhao Yutai said in a trembling voice: "Why?"
Xu Weixiong folded his hands on his knees, looked at the world-famous Tingchao Lake, and said calmly: "If we go, it will only distract him. He has to help us arrange our escape secretly behind our backs, and he has to do it every day How tiring it is to pretend to smile in front of us."
Zhao Yutai¡¯s hands trembled.
Xu Weixiong tilted his head and rested his head gently on the back of Zhao Yutai's hand, "Aunt, if one day comes, help him take care of Wang Chudong and go to the Central Plains to find a paradise with beautiful mountains and clear waters far away from the war, okay?"
Zhao Yutai nodded with difficulty.
In Wutongyuan, the young female writer who won the first prize in the world with "The First Snow" is racking her brains because she has just promised to write a masterpiece for someone that will not lose to "The First Snow", about the wolf smoke in the northwest and the frontier. In war, write about those who died generously and those magnificent scenes.
"To rectify his name, to uphold the reputation of Beiliang, and to make him famous for generations to come, we cannot allow future generations of historians to throw dirty water on him."
The slightly thin and haggard Lu Chengyan sat next to her, taking some time off from her busy schedule to help the famous Wang family polish their ink.
Wang ChuDong suddenly raised his head and said with a grimace: "Sister Lu, I haven't written an article for so long that I don't even know how to write."
? 6 Cheng Yan smiled softly and said: "The article is made by nature, and it can be found by chance. Don't worry."
Wang Chudong said oh and continued to ponder the opening of the article with a frown on his face.
? 6 Cheng Yan slowly stood up and rubbed Wang Chudong's head, "Take your time."
Wang Chudong suddenly smiled, clenched his fist and waved it vigorously, "Don't worry, my thoughts will flow like a fountain, and I won't be able to stop you!"
? 6 Cheng Yan smiled slightly, "I will be the first to read it when the time comes."
When Lu Chengyan walked out of the house, Wang Chudong, who had always given everyone the innocent impression, suddenly burst into tears, like a broken bead curtain.
A carriage passed by the Old Woman Mountain battlefield where the bloody smell had never dissipated. A young general with a white face stood up with difficulty, lifted the curtain and looked around, unwilling to put it down for a long time.
The female Bodhisattva from Mount Landa was sitting in the carriage at this time, responsible for preventing his injury from getting worse and needing to constantly send a peaceful energy to him.
Xie Xijie looked at the battlefield where all the corpses of Beimang were abandoned, and said softly: "Although most of the 20,000 monk soldiers belong to other forces in Landa Mountain, your 3,000 direct descendants are also among them, especially your six With all the wealth of Master Zhu, you must have guessed why I went to that corridor, right?"
The female Bodhisattva with black hair that almost reached her waist nodded indifferently.
Xie Xiqiao smiled bitterly and said: "This is a move that kills three birds with one stone. I have to do it. It can not only block the Beimang reinforcements as much as possible, but also turn the originally useless monk infantry into a surprise force in Liuzhou. In the end, of course, it can In this way, the Western Region's heritage is consumed. No matter whether Beiliang wins or loses, there are only benefits. If they win, Landa Mountain, which is exhausted, can only continue to send monk soldiers to Beiliang in order to pursue profits. If the Xu family of Beiliang loses, in the future If Beimang wants to take advantage of the trend and go south to attack the Central Plains, Beimang will lose at least 20,000 monk soldiers. After all, Beiliang is taking advantage, and you Landuoshan can only be led by the nose."
She sneered and said: "You thank Xijie, the culprit, if you had died in that corridor, and if the Liuzhou border army was also defeated, I would not hesitate to take your head and take it to Beimang to ask for credit. "
Xie Xiqiao smiled and said, "I disappoint you."
After Xie Xiqiao said these words, he had to put down the curtain, lie back down again, and soon fell asleep.
She continued to close her eyes and rest her mind, feeling neither sadness nor joy.
She recited a passage of scripture silently to save the souls of the dead.
Inside and outside Huaiyang Pass, Chu and Dong in the south and north, the two most famous fat men in the world are facing off.
Dong Zhuo rode his horse to the front line and looked up at the city outside Huaiyang Pass. More than 20,000 soldiers had gathered the criminals from the grassland and attacked the city.
Dong Zhuo, who held 140,000 private troops, did not expect that 20,000 troops could break through Huaiyang Pass, and did not even think about taking the outer city.
Dong Zhuo is patiently waiting for winter, waiting for the arrival of a heavy snowfall.
Before this, it was very cost-effective to use 20,000 soldiers who had to die to consume the Huaiyang Pass garrison.
Twenty thousand horses were just what Dong Zhuo and the old woman begged for without spending a tael of silver. Once he used the wealth of his father-in-law's Yelu family, he could borrow another twenty thousand greens from Xiti, the great grassland man. strong.
In addition, Dong Zhuo has sent a message to Helian Wuwei, the governor of Hexi Prefecture. If you can't conquer the two towns of Poria and Liuya before winter, I will borrow troops to help you fight. You're welcome, I, Dong Zhuo, will be unprecedentedly generous!
After Helian Wuwei, a veteran general on the grassland who was famous for his ability in conquering and fighting, heard this, he didn't even bother to reply, and launched a large-scale attack on the city day and night, which was far more powerful than the Huaiyang Pass offensive.
Dong Zhuo habitually rapped his teeth, like the quietest drum in the world.
Chu Lushan stood on the wall of the inner city, also overlooking the siege army.
Chu Lushan was wearing iron armor and looked majestic.
The Protector of Northern Liang intertwined his fingers with an expressionless expression, tapping each other lightly.
His Royal Highness, Beimang Prince Yelu Hongcai, did not ride in a chariot. Instead, he was wearing golden armor and riding a horse in the middle of the army. He looked around and saw that the prairie cavalry stretched endlessly.
It is said that in history, the monarchs of the Central Plains used to ride in giant chariots pulled by eight horses during their personal expeditions. However, this practice was never popular in the grassland. However, His Highness the Crown Prince felt that when he entered the Central Plains in the future, he could change the ancestral rules appropriately.
He actually did not expect that His Majesty the Emperor, whom he feared from the bottom of his heart, was actually willing to let himself hold real power instead of being a puppet. The timid Xue troops around him who only obeyed his orders were proof!
Although the appearance of Yelu Dongtang and Chun Nabo Tuoba Qiyun is a little annoying, it has nothing to do with the overall situation. As long as they work step by step, those two people will not cause any trouble. oneHis grandfather was a veteran of three dynasties, and his father was the military god of Beimang. The backers behind him were indeed scary, could they compare to him?
From the corner of his eye, he accidentally caught a glimpse of the woman sitting on horseback next to him. She was his wife, the titular princess.
If he respects her quite a bit at the beginning and is quite honest with her, and even many times she is his backbone and a being that he needs to look up to, then when the person who cares about him quietly appears, the relationship between the husband and wife will become more and more serious. When they became unfamiliar, they almost went from treating each other like guests to treating each other like ice.
Thinking of the lover who was destined not to be made public, His Royal Highness the Prince of Beimang felt a little regretful and guilty.
But compared with the country and the country, compared with a Central Plains that has never been completely captured by a grassland hero, the choice is obvious.
Who made the young man named Xu from Beiliang and the so-called 300,000 cavalry so helpless that he was about to become his prisoner?
The prince of Beimang was so full of pride for the first time that he wished he could roar loudly.
