The man chuckled, "Long time no see, Mo Yan." The last two words seem to have a bitter taste echoing in the mouth, as if the past life and this life have passed for a long time, everything has changed in a blink of an eye, and there is no going back.

Mo Yan saw him like this, and said dryly: "Bai Lan, thank you just now." She wanted to ask him why he had come here, what role he had played in this war, and whether he had agreed with his brother's aggression, and why he had just let them go by pretending not to know him.

There were too many questions, but she couldn't ask them, they used to be friends and confidants, but now they are on opposite sides, enemies.

Two friends who had nothing to say in the past, at this moment they competed with each other without saying anything, Bai Lan smiled bitterly, took out a fold from his body and handed it to Mo Yan, "Don't say anything, you take this, and the officers and soldiers along the road will let it go as long as they see this." ”

"This..."Mo Yan looked at the fold in his hand, then looked up at his face, hesitated whether to take it, Bai Lan directly stuffed it into her hand, "You haven't seen me today, and I haven't seen you either, you can go quickly." ”

"Thank you, Bai Lan. "It seems that she has nothing more to say than thank you.

She put the fold away and made a gesture, "Mo Yan is goodbye, you take care." After saying that, she turned around and left, she knew that their friendship would be over from now on, and if they met again, they could only be enemies.

He chose his side, and she had her own position.

Bai Lan watched Mo Yan get into the carriage, the carriage went farther and farther, and his heart was bitter, he didn't know why things had gotten so bad.

Why did the obviously generous imperial brother become ruthless after becoming the emperor, as if he was a different person?

Several of their brothers, except for him, were almost killed, and they didn't kill him because they had the same mother and father, and because he had always supported him as emperor and didn't fight with him.

Sometimes he couldn't help but wonder if he hadn't supported him to be emperor at the beginning, and now that someone else is the emperor, everything would be different.

Or I haven't known Mo Yan, is it not so difficult to choose now, but think about it and think it's impossible, he was assassinated when he first met Mo Yan, if Mo Yan didn't help him, maybe he would have died a long time ago, how could he care about the rest of the matter?

After all, the past cannot be traced, the territory is expanded, which emperor does not want to, all he can do is to follow, and the next time they meet, he can no longer have a long relationship with children.

Mo Yan returned to the carriage and kept staring at the corner of the carriage without speaking, the sound of driving sounded in his ears, Yuecong endured and endured, but still couldn't help asking: "What did you all say?"

"Huh?" Mo Yan raised his eyes to look at him and smiled silently: "I didn't say anything, but he gave me this." As she spoke, she turned over her hand and took out the fold that Bai Lan had given her.

Yue Cong took it and looked at it, "This is a document that has passed the official road, and it will be much easier to pass the customs with this." He should be happy, but he couldn't be happy.

Yue Cong seemed to inadvertently return the fold to her, "This friend of yours has helped us a lot this time, and I can see that he is good to you." ”

"Bai Lan has always been good, but it's a pity that he can only come here. Mo Yan's tone was not without regret, his former best friends, I am afraid that when we meet again, I am afraid that it will be a military intersection.

With this document, they passed through the back cities without danger, and they saw that they were about to reach Qiming Mountain, but they heard bad news.

The Feng army defeated Qiming Mountain, the Yu army on the mountain was defeated and took Huazhou City, was beaten in the city and did not dare to go out of the city, and Huazhou City was besieged.

"General, what do you think we should do now?" Ding Yan was anxious when he got the news, and immediately told Mo Yan.

It is really not good that Qi Mingshan is lost, Huazhou City is now tantamount to a lonely city, it is certain that it will be surrounded, the question is, how many troops did Dong Hao use to besiege Huazhou City.

"How long has Huazhou City been besieged, and how many troops are outside the city, have you found out?" Mo Yan asked after a moment of silence.

"Huazhou City has been besieged for more than half a month, and the last general has explored far outside the city, not to mention 70,000 people. Ding Yi replied,

"He wanted to take advantage of my absence to take Huazhou City in one fell swoop, and he actually used half of his troops. "Although the Feng army is known as a 200,000-strong army, excluding the old, weak, sick and disabled, and those who are pressed along the way, there are only about 150,000 people who can really go to the battlefield.

Huazhou City can't enter now if she wants to, and she won't throw herself into the net, Yue Cong looked at him and said, "Go to Yangjun." ”

Seeing Mo Yan looking at himself, he smiled and said: "Huazhou City has not been taken for half a month, Dong Hao's energy is put on this side, Yangjun is naturally defense-oriented, we will go to Yangjun to lead troops to the battle, regardless of the head, he always has to pick the light end and put it down, so that the difficulty of Huazhou City can be solved." ”

The people in Huazhou City are like foxes in the mountains, always taking advantage of people's unpreparedness to bite a few bites, but they are all petty fights, although they are annoying but not very scary, Yangjun is moving and pulling the whole body, one is not careful, don't be wrapped up by the other party, it is impossible not to understand this size of Dong Hao.

But this has to move faster, otherwise Huazhou City will be broken, and it will be useless to say anything.

"Good. Just go to Yangjun. Mo Yan clapped the decision, and after speaking, a few people set off towards Yangjun.

Let's say that on Qiming Mountain, since Mo Yan left, Gao Chenglang was in charge of the military affairs on the mountain, and within three days the army was overwhelmed, and the enemy was outnumbered, although there was a mountain advantage, but it was also defeated and defeated.

Gao Chenglang has been smooth sailing over the years, and after following the victory of the first emperor's resistance, he has been prosperous all the way, until he was promoted to a partial general, and he did not encounter any difficult things that required him to make a choice.

Unexpectedly, the first time he was asked to make a choice, it was a matter of life and death, and one of his decisions was related to the life and death of many people, which may affect the outcome of the war, and even the survival of the country.

Is it to defend or to retreat? After retreating, Huazhou City will be a lonely city, and how long can it last? Once Huazhou City is broken, the situation of Huazhou City in Yangjun County will also be broken, what should we do?

"What do we do now? Seeing that he didn't reply for a long time, the general said it again, they guarded from day to night, and saw that the offensive of the Feng army was getting more and more fierce, and his own personnel were getting fewer and fewer, so he couldn't help but be in a hurry.

"Pass my order, all the soldiers retreat to Huazhou City, everyone retreats lightly, you and I retreat in the last wave, burn the things that can't be taken away, don't leave it for the Feng army. Gao Chenglang ordered, instead of leaving everyone here, it is better to return to Huazhou City to defend the city for a few more days, and see if there can be a turnaround.

This guard lasted for fifteen days, and the food and grass in the city became less and less, and the soldiers who defended the city suffered heavy casualties, except for the old, weak, sick and disabled, almost all those who could defend the city went to the city wall, but they were still more and more powerless, and they saw that the city was about to be lost.

I don't know what the situation is in Yangjun, it's been so many days, and there hasn't been any movement at all, so I'm afraid something has happened.

Thinking of this, Gao Chenglang's heart became even heavier, standing on the city wall and looking at the Feng army outside the city, and the generals of the Feng army were persuading him to surrender again.

A few days ago, there were traitors from Yuguo who said to surrender and were killed by him with an arrow, and then those traitors may be greedy for life and afraid of death and dare not go into battle, so the generals of the Feng army personally went into battle to persuade them to surrender.

With a firm gaze, he drew another arrow feather and shot it at the general of the feudal army who was like a river, and he would not surrender even if he fought to the death.
