"Newspaper—"

Inside the Guozi Prison, an anxious cry resounded outside the peach blossom forest.

Song Yu, who had been walking back and forth beside the brazier for a long time, hurriedly ran to the gate of the courtyard and said in a deep voice:

"Why do you shout so loudly? What's going on? ”

Outside the courtyard gate, Liu Pingyang's son Liu Changrun, with irrepressible excitement in his eyes, looked left and right, and said anxiously:

"The big thing has been accomplished, Xu Buling really hit the plan, rushed to Wangjiangtai in a rage, and committed the crime of killing the king."

Song Yu shook slightly, and was a little incredulous:

"It turned out to be a ...... What happened to Brother Huang? ”

Liu Changrun gasped, trembling with excitement:

"I saw with my own eyes, a sword pierced the heart, through the body, Liu Yunlin was protected around the imperial chariot, and after his interrogation, the saint was already out of anger as soon as he came out of Wangjiangtai. The country can't be without a king for a day, now there is no leader in the hundreds of officials, no one is sitting in the court, and the prince also asks to go to the Taiji Hall to preside over the overall situation. ”

Song Yu's body shook twice, touched his chest, and there was a bit of disbelief in his eyes:

"Brother Huang, just died?"

Liu Changrun raised his hand to hold Song Yu's arm and said anxiously:

"It's true, it's true, it's not wrong. Now that Xu does not order the killing of the monarch to die, the king of Su will inevitably wave his army out of Qinzhou to put pressure on the imperial court, and the two kings of Shu and Chu will not have time to rush to the capital, and the hundred officials cannot afford to wait. Please also ask the prince to go to Taiji Palace quickly. ”

Song Yu was in a trance for a moment, and then his expression was slightly shocked, and he quickly rushed out of the Guozijian and went to the Imperial City Taiji Palace......

---------

In the Maijishan generation outside the border of Qinzhou, two thousand imperial soldiers and horses were stationed here, because Qianyang Pass was garrisoned by the Xiliang army in the back, and the army stationed in Maijishan only had symbolic meaning and had no practical effect.

At noon, five scouts sat on a beacon tower left over from the previous dynasty at the top of the hill, munching on dry food with water bladders in their hands.

There was a veteran among the scouts, who was also a military commander, who was sitting in the shade under the beacon at this time, talking about some meat jokes collected over the years.

The four scouts are all newly recruited recruits, only seventeen or eighteen years old, if not, they will not be sent to this sixty years of war-free Maijishan to experience, this place is sandwiched between the Western Army of Dayue and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, unless one day the Xiliang Army goes out of Qinzhou or the imperial court to kill the king of Su, it is possible to ignite the wolf smoke.

Military orders are like mountains, and since the imperial court keeps this beacon, it naturally still has an effect.

The old captain has been here all his life, and he even remembers clearly how many trees there are in the poplar forest under the beacon tower, and he has long lost interest, so he just let a silly recruit stand under the sun and watch.

Knock Knock—

Just as the old Wu Chang was talking about meat, the water bowl in his hand suddenly rippled in circles.

The little soldier who was eating dry food next to him looked at it a few times, and sneered: "Captain Wu, why are your hands shaking, didn't you ...... last night?"

"Phew-believe it or not, Lao Tzu will give you a bud tonight, Lao Tzu's hands can't shake!"

The old Wu Chang spat out, looked at the water bowl in his hand, and was also a little puzzled, thought about it, put the water bowl on the ground, and lay down on the ground to listen.

"Horseshoe...... Quite a lot......"

The recruit also learned to listen, but unfortunately he couldn't hear anything, and wondered:

"We are foot soldiers, where did the horse's hooves come from......"

Old Wu Chang frowned and thought for a while, then raised his head: "Hey-fool, did you see anything?" ”

The beacon tower was high, and some silly scouts raised their fingers and pointed to the northwest:

"There's a lot of smoke!"

"Smoke?"

The old captain was inexplicable, stood up and patted his buttocks, and glanced out of the window.

When I think of this moment, it's creepy!

At the end of the wilderness in the northwest of Maiji Mountain, there was a black line that could not be seen left and right, and the dust raised by tens of thousands of soldiers and horses covered the sky, like a tsunami that had just appeared, slowly pressing over from the sky.

"This ...... This ......"

Old Wu's pupils shrank, his face turned pale, turned around and ran to the torch, and scolded angrily:

"You fool, don't say it sooner! Fire, quick, where is the fire! ”

A few recruits were still at a loss, got up and found the fire fold, and handed it to the old captain:

"What's the matter, what's that?"

The old Wu Chang had no face, ran up to the beacon tower with a rolling belt, kicked the fool away, stood beside the pile of dry firewood and horse dung, looked northwest with a torch, and his legs trembled uncontrollably.

The northwest of Maiji Mountain is the border of Qinzhou, where there is a poplar forest, and beyond the poplar forest is the territory of King Su.

Although King Su's soldiers and horses can go to Qianyang Pass to garrison, this place belongs to the two areas, and the people have nothing to run on both sides, but since ancient times, the court has an iron law - the vassal king has not been ordered by the court, and the army leaves the fiefdom without permission, which is regarded as complicity.

Qianyang Pass changes its defense every three years, and now it is not time to change its defense, and there are too many soldiers and horses in front, enough to wave the army to attack Chang'an.

The old Wu Chang knew that King Su was training in Qinzhou, but he shouldn't have come to this place, because if he went any further, he would be out of Qinzhou!

Under the scorching sun, beads of sweat the size of beans fell on the slate that had been burned.

The old man's hand holding the torch trembled slightly, his eyes were fixed on the black line, and he didn't even dare to blink his eyelids.

King Su stepped over the small poplar forest, and before the fire was lit, he had to lose his head.

But if this fire is really lit, it will not be a pile of firewood, but the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers who have been in peace with each other for 60 years!

"Tiger—"

"Tiger—"

"Tiger—"

Gradually, the earth-shattering sound came from the sky, more and more, until the whole world was left with this one voice.

The 80,000-strong army swept through the dust and smoke raised by the large belt to cover the sky and the sun, and the black royal flag hunted in the wind, like a life-urging talisman.

The old captain stopped breathing, still staring at the woods, and forcibly did not throw the torch down.

A few of the soldiers turned pale with fright, fell to the ground, first grabbed the weapons leaning against the wall, then dropped them, and ran down the beacon in a panic.

"Tiger—"

"Tiger—"

"Tiger—"

Tens of thousands of people shouted in unison, as if they were close at hand.

Tens of thousands of blades are like ocean waves, shining under the scorching sun with a cold light that can shatter people and things in the world.

The horses' hooves stomped on the ground, causing several clay pots in the beacon to shatter.

The old captain was like a wooden man, holding a torch and standing alone on the beacon tower, watching the black sea slowly approach the poplar forest, closer and closer, closer and closer, and finally ......

Boom –

Flames rose from the beacon tower, and smoke billowed into the sky.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

The old Wu Chang picked up the long knife from the ground like a mad demon and rushed to the barracks below the mountain, and the terrible scolding sound spread far and wide throughout Maijishan.

Unfortunately, the military camps stationed at the foot of the mountain have already scattered and fled, leaving only a large area of barracks and dragon flags still hunting in the wind......

------

At the same time.

Far away at the end of the thousands of miles of yellow sand in the sky, the black-pressed Northern Qi army appeared on the edge of the sand sea, and in front of it was Guazhou, the westernmost territory of Dayue, and out of the Yumen Pass of Guazhou, it was the Western Regions.

The leading general rode on the war horse, looked at the city in the distance, and raised his hand to catch the eagle falling straight from the sky.

The eagle has a paper tube tied to its legs, which bears the mark of Prince Zuo's Jiang Yu.

The general let go of the eagle, opened the paper tube and took a look, then pulled out a scimitar from the side of the war horse and pointed it at the city:

"Beat the drums!"

Knock Knock Knock –

"Kill—"

The monstrous shouts of killing drowned the entire sea of sand in an instant......
