Chapter 104: The city is broken, and the escape is shared

"Why are you doing this?" Seeing that he was wearing heavy armor and blood-stained robes, but still had a rough and heroic head, Yulan was simply surprised and delighted. Especially when I heard the sentence: "By the decree of the prince of Jin, ......"

"Your prince is here too?" Yulan stepped forward and asked with some disbelief.

"My lord is now arranging defenses at the head of the city!" The big head touched the short beard on his chin and said innocently. "This is a mess, it's really not easy to meet a girl here, that, the girl should go with me to see my lord." Lord, he's been thinking about you!

Yulan really wanted to see the King of Jin, the last time the temple caught fire, the prince could come forward, this time the Jurchens attacked the city, he couldn't see death and not save it.

Although Hongyan Tower can be settled temporarily, it is not a place to stay for a long time after all. The boss collected a lot of money, which made them stay here, and as for the boss himself, he didn't know where to hide.

"Then please lead the way, the general!"

The big head didn't talk nonsense, leaving a few guards to continue to recruit the people, and he personally took Yulan to the south city. Yulan stretched out her hand and pulled Yuqing and asked her to go to see the prince with her. Somehow, when she went to see King Jin alone, she was always a little weak.

From a distance, he saw a tall and tall figure in the direction of Nancheng, and when Yulan saw this figure, his heart immediately settled down. God knows how calm she was on the surface just now, how scared she was in her heart, she hid a golden hairpin in her sleeve, once the city is broken and she can't escape, then there is only one way to go!

"Lord Wang, Lord Wang!" Far away, the big head opened his voice and shouted, "Who do you think I'm bringing here?" This guy has an ambiguous expression on his face, and his tone of voice is full of doglegs!

This time, he led the team to chase after Beile Gekun of the Hada Division, one of the four Jurchen Haixi Divisions, and led more than 12 cavalry in total. Gekun is a barbarian outside the Guan, but he is different from other Baylor, he admires the Central Plains culture very much, behaves like a Han Chinese, and even has a tried and failed to be his Chinese teacher at home.

The banners of the Jurchen tribes are different, and the prince of Jin recognized the banner of the Hada tribe, and he knew that the person behind the butt was Gekun, and after entering Shili Fort, he saw that there were less than 2 officers and soldiers in the city, and there were less than 3 of his own guards, how could he resist the Jurchen army?

On the one hand, Ye Yichen asked the big head to recruit the people to replenish the city, and on the other hand, he asked Sun to open the arsenal and distribute the weapons in the warehouse to all the people who climbed the city wall. He also called people, and the four city walls of the south, east, and west were densely covered with flags.

Everyone was puzzled, and Ye Yichen didn't explain.

At this time, it was getting late, Gekun rode his horse to the land of three arrows, looked up at the city, only to see the flags on the city wall, everywhere there were figures and buildings, just now he gathered the remnants of the army that was scattered by Ye Yichen, and someone had already reported to him that there were not many defenders in the city. Then some of his subordinates advised him to attack the city immediately.

This Gelkun is quite wise, but he is suspicious, at this moment, when he saw the situation in the city, he had a sudden attack in his heart, he chased Ye Yichen behind him for most of the day, and knew that this team was brave and good at fighting, and cunning......

Ye Yichen laid out an empty city plan for him, but he didn't dare to take the risk, because it was too late to see the situation in the city, Gekun thought to himself, he would temporarily let you stop for one night, and it would be the same if I waved my army to attack tomorrow. Therefore, he did not take the advice of his subordinates, but ordered the army to set up camp and wait until tomorrow after dawn to discern the situation before making plans.

Ye Yichen used hundreds of people and hundreds of flags to buy a precious night. Of course, this is due to Ye Fengqi's strong intelligence network - he knows the personality preferences of the leaders of the Jurchen tribes well, and the important thing is, of course, that the prince of Jin is extremely smart - Ge Kun reacted that he was calculating.

At this moment, Ye Yichen was using his brain to think about how to get out, thinking about how to mobilize all the resources of this small city to fight a tough battle with Gekun, but the big head told him to see something irrelevant to him, he was so busy that he couldn't wait to grow two heads, how could he have time to meet people? This big head is really getting more and more blind!

Ye Yichen raised his head and swept it casually, and immediately saw a group of guards surrounding the two sisters, Yulan and Yuqing. At that moment, it was as if there was a small lightning bolt flashing in his eyes. The moment he saw Yulan, his handsome face lit up, and the faint worry in his heart was swept away, and the whole person was a lot more relaxed.

Ye Yichen threw off his horse, handed the reins to a personal guard, and walked over.

"Courtiers, see His Royal Highness King Jin!" Yulan and Yuqing saluted together.

Ye Yichen waved his hand and said, "Get up!" ”

The two sisters stood up. This is not a good place to salute. He swept his gaze, only to see Yuqing's eyes shrunk, his lips were pale, and his face was full of fear, although he didn't see a single Jurchen soldier, he was frightened. However, Yulan's spring shirt and skirt are not powdered, elegant and tranquil, and the battlefield full of gunsmoke makes people feel as if there is a pure land around her.

Ye Yichen saw that she was as calm as ever, and a hint of appreciation flashed in her eyes. He looked at Yulan and asked; "Why are you here?" Yulan recounted this experience.

Ye Yichen said: "Since this king has met you here, everything is arranged by this king, and this king will naturally do his best to bring you back to the capital safely." ”

Yulan and Yuqing glanced at each other, both of them were happy, and said in unison: "Thank you, Lord Wang!" ”

At this time, it was inconvenient to say more, Ye Yichen asked the big head to arrange them to a safe place first. Yulan refused to leave, she stepped forward and said: "Wait, I have a reluctant request, please agree!" ”

Ye Yichen was slightly surprised: "What's the matter with you?" ”

Yulan said: "My grandmother is still in Xiaoye Village, and I don't know the news of the entry of the Jurchens in the Dao Dao. Grandmother is old, can you send someone to Xiaoye Village to spread the word and tell her to rush back to the capital immediately to avoid it? He looked at him with a pair of bright black eyes.

That's what happened? Ye Yichen couldn't refuse because of her dark eyes, and his big head replied first: "My prince has already sent someone to pick you up in Zhuangzi in advance, and now your grandmother should have already returned to Beijing." ”

Yulan was amazed when she heard this. Why is Ye Yichen so powerful? The suspicious look on Ye Yichen's face turned around, and Ye Yichen was slightly weakened by her. "Ahem, exactly! The two girls should go down and rest for a while, I will arrange for the city officials to evacuate the people out of the city, you go down first to eat something, accumulate some strength, the road to escape is not easy to walk! ”

The two of them nodded, they completely believed in Ye Yichen Yulan's ability, as for Yuqing, she had already lost her six gods, and she would follow Yulan wherever she went, and she had no idea of her own.

Yulan saw that the people in the city were all assisting in defending the city, and moved the rolling wood and stones to the head of the city, and was in full swing, so he ordered his guards to also go to the city to help in the battle. Most of them were Jinyi guards, and they naturally had to be used more than the untrained peasants.

As soon as Yulan walked on the front foot, Ye Yichen called Sun Jiang, Chengzhong County, Inspector, and Team Leader over, and everyone was a petty official of eight and nine grades. Ye Yichen's gaze looked over everyone's faces one by one, and was swept away by that cold gaze, and everyone felt a heavy pressure falling from the sky, and their backs were arched low.

Ye Yichen calmly and calmly announced: "Outside the city is one of the four Jurchen Haixi tribes, the Hada Division, led by Belgelkun himself, a total of 12 enemy troops, and now there are only 2 officers and soldiers in the city, plus the king's personal guards, there are less than 3 people, and half of them are wounded, now we have no food and grass inside, and no reinforcements outside...... he announced with a faint expression, "Shili Fort will be broken!" ”

The crowd was in an uproar. Ye Yichen looked at Mr. Sun first: "Mr. Sun, what do you think?" Sun Jiang's face was pale, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead: "This general, this general has the responsibility to defend the land, and I am willing to live and die with this city!" "According to the Great Chu system, once the city is broken, if the defender dies in battle, he can still be rewarded and compensated by the imperial court, if the defender abandons the city and flees, even if he can escape with his life, the court will capture him back and behead him to set an example.

Fighting is also death, retreating is also death, it is better to fight with all your strength!

Ye Yichen nodded with satisfaction, he was waiting for this sentence. Ye Yichen said solemnly: "Lord Sun is loyal to the country, after this king returns to Beijing, he will report to the emperor in person, and your family and this king will ask someone to take care of him, you don't have to worry!" ”

What kind of identity Ye Yichen is, naturally he won't deceive him with this kind of thing, with the promise of the prince of Jin, Sun Jiang always knows that his wife and children are worry-free in this life. He was overjoyed, knelt down on one knee and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang!" ”

Ye Yichen waved his hand to get him up, his eyes fell on the county officer, the patrol inspection, the squad leader and others, and said lightly: "What are your plans?" ”

Everyone continued to wipe their sweat with their wide sleeves, as officials of the city, they also "had the responsibility to defend the land", if Shili Fort was breached, there was only a dead end in front of them.

Ye Yichen said: "This king gives you a way to live, you just need to do the errand that the king told you to do, this king allows you to withdraw from the city, if you are lucky enough to escape your life, this king will write to the current saint and forgive you and other crimes." ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and said unevenly: "Listen to the orders of the prince!" ”

Ye Yichen first instructed Sun Jiang: "When you arrive, you will open the city gate wide, take people out of the city gate to dig a trap at the gate of the city with a swagger, arrange a stumbling rope, and make the sound as loud as possible." ”

Sun Jiang is also a bold man, he has made up his mind to live and die with the city, but he doesn't want his subordinates to die in vain. There are more than 1 people under Gekun's men, and with the few men under him, a single charge can wipe out his troops. Ye Yichen said with a bamboo chest: "Gekun is suspicious and cunning, the more you make a big move, the more they dare not move!" ”

Sun Jiang always listened to it with half a doubt, but the prince had an order, and he didn't dare to disobey, so he also agreed.

Ye Yichen said to the rest of the people: "Sun Jiang always attracted Gekun's idea, you open the north gate, organize the people to escape from the north gate, and immediately flee to the nearby mountains after leaving the city, and then ask people to throw more gold and silver on the street, the Jurchens will inevitably loot the people's wealth when they enter the city, and they can also delay their trip." If this is done, this king will wait for you in front of the saints! ”

So far, everyone has no choice but to agree. In the middle of the night, Sun Jiang always obeyed Ye Yichen's order, opened the city gate, each person lit two torches in his hand, rushed out of the city gate, swaggered and dug a trap pit, Ge Kun got the news, saw the city gate wide open, there were only one hundred and ten people at the door, and the loud noise was working in full swing, but the city looked at the shadows, Ge Kun didn't know how many ambush soldiers were hidden in the road, and wanted to lure Ben Belle to be fooled? No way!

I appeased my subordinates, and waited for Tianming to find out the situation before fighting with all my might.

At this time, the north gate of Shilibao, the county Cheng, the patrol inspection, the squad leader and others will evacuate the crowd with Lijia Baozheng, the north gate is narrow, but there are thousands of people in the city, the county Cheng is so anxious that he is sweating profusely, and he has to let people go out of the city in an orderly manner, and he can't let the Jurchens hear the sound of the north gate.

Yulan was also told to go out of the city at this time, she and Yuqing took the guards to the door to take a look, but at this time, everyone was running for their lives, and several carriages crowded the city gate for a while, and no one could get out. The inspector lowered his voice and roared in a low voice: "Come in order, come in order, no matter how you rob, no one wants to go out of the city!" They all called the barbarian soldiers to take you as slaves! ”

When Yulan and the others arrived, there were already many people lined up in front of them, Yang Qing was very anxious, and took out a waist card from his waist and said: "I am the Jinyi guard in Beijing, escorting Miss Yang Shoufu out of the city, you and the untouchables should not get out of the way quickly!" ”

The crowd was noisy, the so-called people do not fight with the officials, the brocade clothes are powerful in the world, no one is afraid, but now at the moment of life and death, where can everyone manage so much, and there are very few people who give way for a while. Yang Qing was furious, and pulled out the embroidered spring knife: "If you don't get out of the way, Lao Tzu is going to cut people!" ”

I heard someone say in a weird manner: "I heard that Lord Shoufu Yang has gone through three dynasties, for the country and the people, it is rare to be a clean official, how can he raise such an arrogant and domineering family Ding Nursing Home?" "For a while, the servants were like clouds, and they were all accusatory. Yang Qing's head was full of green tendons, and it was difficult to ride a tiger for a while.

Yulan frowned and said, "Yang Qing, come back!" Since it's late, let's line up! ”

Yang Qing said urgently: "Miss......"

Yulan intercepted: "We are human beings, they are also human beings, and no one wants to die!" Since we are too late, let us all have our destiny! ”

Yang Qing stomped his foot fiercely, in just one day, Yulan had established prestige among this group of guards, and Yang Qing didn't dare not listen to her.

People are just very strange, everyone saw that the young ladies of the Shoufu Mansion lined up to go out of the city in a regular manner, and they all went out of the city in order for a while, and the speed was much faster than just now when you were fighting for me.

However, there were too many people, and the city gate was too small, and by the time Yulan left the city, the sky was already bright. At this time, the south gate had already shouted to kill the heavens. Gekun was tricked by Ye Yichen for a whole night, the sky gradually brightened, and finally found that the city was empty, and the soldiers defending the city added up to only two or three hundred. General Sun's subordinates were also quite brave, but they were outnumbered in the end, and after repelling two attacks by the Jurchens, the barbarians finally attacked the city wall.

Seeing that the general trend had gone, Ye Yichen immediately withdrew from Shili Fort with a group of personal guards. Sun is responsible for guarding the land, but he can't throw his life away in this small city, he still has important things to do.

Everyone fought all night, rushed out of the city gate, only to see that the people had gone out of the city gate at this time, the fields on the mountain beams, there were people everywhere, hundreds of barbarian soldiers bypassed the east and west cities and outflanked them, most of the villagers hid in the mountains and escaped their lives, but they went out late and did not have time to run into the mountains The villagers became the Jurchen hunting objects, the barbarian soldiers scattered, rushed to kill on horseback, and slaughtered the unarmed Li people without the slightest mercy, Ye Yichen was stunned, but after last night's fighting, there were less than 3 people left in the guards around him, There are hundreds of Jurchen cavalry chasing after him, he wants to save these ordinary people, but where can he!

Ye Yichen immediately decided: "Go!" ”

The enemy burned and looted on his own territory, but he couldn't do anything, the big head and the other guards all felt deeply ashamed, and they also knew that Lu Dao couldn't fight at this time, so they could only be regarded as invisible, and went away with Ye Yichen's roar.

Galloping for several miles, Ye Yichen suddenly saw that on a mountain beam not far away, four or five healthy horses surrounded a gorgeously dressed and beautiful girl, and all of them were sitting on the Jurchens, and the Jurchen barbarians made strange noises, shuttling around the girl like a marquee, the girl's face was awe-inspiring, holding a golden hairpin in her hand, and the shiny tip was against her throat.

Ye Yichen only felt a surge of blood surging up in his head, and his eyes were already blood-red!

"Brute! Don't stop me yet......"

More than 20 horsemen came like the wind, Ye Yichen stabbed a Jurchen cavalryman to death with one shot, and the remaining four cavalrymen were all cut down by the big head with people. They sat down, frightened, and scattered away.

Yulan thought that this time she was dead, and when she saw Ye Yichen galloping from afar, her heart was relieved, and she suddenly dispersed with a breath of air. It had taken all her strength to confront her in just a quarter of an hour, and if it weren't for the Jurchen cavalry seeing that she was born well and deliberately teasing, she wouldn't have survived.

Seeing that her legs were weak as if she had lost all her strength, the white horse of the King of Jin had already come to him, he gently stretched his ape arms, grabbed her waist, and gently lifted her onto the horse's back. Yulan felt that she had fallen into a strong and safe embrace, and the sound of hooves was like thunder, and everyone roared away.

Yulan was relieved and fainted. Ye Yichen held her waist with one hand and hugged her tightly in his arms.

No matter what, I'll take care of you!
