Volume 1 Mountains and Rivers Change Hands Chapter 9 A Light Opens to the Sun 4
When he ran into the county office, there was no guard at the door, and then above the lobby, he saw the red candle shining high, and everyone was drinking and having fun.
Storm Zhao shouted at Pan Zhong out of breath: "Commander Pan, close the city gate quickly, the Yan army has arrived." ”
Pan Zhongzheng was drinking happily, and when he saw an unkempt man breaking in, pointing fingers at him, he was angry, and shouted: "Who are you, dare to be alarmist here, Yan Jun is far away in Beiping, how could he arrive in Xiongxian all of a sudden, could it be that he flew over, it's a joke, come here, call me out." ”
Storm Zhao waved his hand again and again and said: "Commander Pan, I am the political envoy of Pingyan Bu and the secretary of the Criminal Department, my words are true, the Yan army has arrived at the city, and ambushed our army's grain fleet, burning 500,000 stone grain and grass." ”
At this time, one of Pan Zhong's personal soldiers ran in and whispered a few words to him. Pan Zhong immediately woke up, hurriedly went down to the hall, held the violent Zhao, looked at it carefully, recognized that this person was indeed the violent Zhao, and hurriedly bowed down and saluted: "The lowly position has eyes and is speechless, and the violent book is not strange." ”
Storm Zhao hurriedly said: "Commander Pan, you don't have to be polite at this moment, close the city gate quickly, the Yan army has already killed you." ”
Pan Zhong nodded again and again and said, "Okay, I will immediately order the city gate to be closed, and send someone to Commander Yang of Renqiu for help." ”
Before the words fell, the sound of killing in the city was everywhere, and a sergeant covered in blood rushed in and cried: "Commander Pan, the big thing is not good, the Yan army has entered the city." ”
Pan Zhong immediately turned back to the generals in the hall and waved his hands and shouted: "Don't sit there like a dead pig, the Yan army has already entered the city, stand up quickly, the guy, and kill the enemy with me." ”
The guards handed over the blades and armor, Pan Zhong was neatly draped, with the knife in his hand, roared, and took the lead to kill the door, and the generals staggered to their feet, each holding a knife and gun, and staggered out with him.
Tyrant Zhao also picked up a spear, held it in his hand, and came to the cross street with the large group of people, only to see that the city was on fire everywhere, shouting in all directions, and people were scurrying around like headless flies, and I don't know how many Yan troops came.
That Pan Zhong is also brave, commanding his soldiers to go to the four gates, and the Yan army into the city melee in one place, his more than 5,000 Taizhou soldiers do not have the weak spirit of the Jiangnan people, but are not afraid of death, not as vulnerable as the southern guards in other places, and the tall Yan army launched a street battle, the two sides are short-handed, fighting house by house, and they are killed.
Killed until dawn, both sides suffered heavy casualties, dead bodies on both sides of the street were pillowed, blood flowed like a river, but the Yan army continued to pour in, and the Taizhou soldiers had no backup, and gradually could not support it. Seeing that the situation was not good, Pan Zhong wiped a handful of blood from his face, turned his head and shouted to Violent Zhao: "Violent Shangshu, Xiongxian can't hold it, you withdraw quickly, I will find someone to escort you." ”
Storm Zhao shouted at him, "Commander Pan, you also go with me." ”
Pan Zhong said: "I can't go, I lost my teacher and lost my land, and I am going to be beheaded." I'm going to stay here and wait for reinforcements, and if they don't come, I'll die to serve my country. ”
Storm Zhao stepped forward and grabbed his hand, and said hurriedly: "We have to go together, otherwise no one will leave." Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and I will share it with Geng Hou, command Pan, and keep a useful body to better serve the country. ”
Pan Zhong had no choice but to withdraw to the south gate with Tyrant Zhao, and the accompanying guards opened a bloody road and rushed outside the south gate.
Outside the south gate more than ten miles is the Daqing River, although the water flow is slow, but the river surface is wide, can not wade in vain, fortunately there is a five-hole stone bridge in the middle, the name is called the Yueyang Bridge, erect on it, communicate the north and south. This bridge is fifty zhang long, three zhang wide, four zhang high, both sides are carved railings, lion column heads, the end is Changhong lying wave, flying dragon playing in the water.
Pan Zhong and the others retreated to the side of the bridge, and were about to cross the bridge, when they suddenly saw a group of people on the other side, and everyone was startled. Take a closer look at the banner, it turned out to be the Shaoxing Wei sergeant, the first person, slender and long, white skin, horizontal knife prancing horse, rushing across the bridge, it was Shaoxing Wei commander Yang Song, Pan Zhong saw Yang Song coming, overjoyed, and said to Violent Zhao: "Violent Shangshu, reinforcements are coming." ”
Then he stepped forward to stop Yang Song's horse's head, hugged his fists and arched his hands: "Thank you Commander Yang for personally leading the troops to the rescue, there are still many sergeants in Taizhou Wei trapped in the city, I hope you and I will join forces, kill back to Xiongxian, and rescue the soldiers." ”
Yang Song jumped off the horse, gave the salute to Bang Zhao, Pan Zhong and others, and said: "I heard that Xiongxian County was in an emergency, and I led the troops to rescue overnight, without stopping, galloping for more than 100 miles, and now I am exhausted, can I rest outside the city for a while, and then enter the city to fight with the Yan army." ”
Storm Zhao stepped forward and held Yang Song's hands tightly and said: "Commander Yang, saving soldiers is like fighting fire, you can't delay for a moment, I think that the Yan army has also fought hard all night, exhausted, your new force is killed, it is a good time to destroy the enemy, if this battle is won, I will be the above table to ask for credit." ”
Yang Song was helpless, flew on his horse, pulled out his waist knife, waved it forward, and ordered the whole army: "Brothers, our Taizhou Wei brothers of Zhejiang Dusi have fallen into Xiongxian County, let's go into the city, rescue them, and the big guys will rush with me." ”
After that, Yang Song urged the horse to rush towards Xiongxian County, and the five thousand Shaoxing guards behind him also shouted to kill the thief, rushed across the bridge, and rushed forward with him. Pan Zhong also led more than 1,000 remnants of Taizhou Wei who fled from the city to return and kill.
Suddenly, there was a cannon fire at the head of Xiongxian County, and countless Yan troops rushed out from the south gate, and they rode in front of them, with a black horse and a black beard, a white beard, and a tall figure, like an iron tower, majestic, and it was the generals under Zhu Di, the king of Yan, who commanded Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu raised his sword and fell, slashed several Shaoxing guards who rushed in front to the ground, and shouted backwards: "Those who capture and kill Pan Zhong and Yang Song will be rewarded with ten thousand yuan, and the official will be promoted to three levels." ”
When the Yan army heard this, the crowd was excited and killed the southern army like a tide.
As Yang Song said, the Shaoxing guards galloped non-stop all night, and they were already exhausted, so how could they have the strength to fight again. Although the Yan army also fought fiercely for one night, there were many Yan soldiers, there were tens of thousands of people, most of them had not yet participated in last night's battle, and they were gearing up, wanting to try it, and when they were doing a lot of work, Yang Song's department sent it to the door, how could it not be laughed at.
So the soldiers of the Yan army opened a killing ring, and the Shaoxing guards turned over on their backs, the ghosts cried wolves, and they retreated in defeat until they retreated to the Yueyang Bridge.
Yang Song saw that the defeat was decided, and was about to order the soldiers to cross the bridge, when he suddenly heard a sharp whistle, and countless human figures appeared under the water, they were all dressed in shark skin and water, only revealing a pair of eyes, holding a reed pipe in their mouths, holding a water-dividing Emei thorn, like a ghost, climbed ashore, occupied the bridgehead, and blocked the retreat of the southern army.
The water ghosts in the river who had not yet come ashore swam to the front and stabbed to death the southern troops who were struggling in the river one by one, and the blood stained the Daqing River red.
Seeing that the situation was urgent, Yang Song jumped off the horse, helped Tyrant Zhao onto the horse, led the horse with one hand, and slashed with the knife with the other, wanting to kill a bloody way.
Storm Zhao hurriedly said on the horse: "Commander Yang, leave me alone, you quickly ride on your horse and rush out and report to Geng Hou." ”
Yang Song said without replying: "Tyranny Shangshu, don't care about me, if you can rush out today, it will be a victory, otherwise the three armies will lose their morale and the Northern Expedition will be defeated." ”
At this time, Yang Song suddenly felt a flash of cold light in front of him, the burly man had been killed, the Emei thorn in his hand waved, stabbed in the face, Yang Song blocked with a knife, but pounced, this move was a false move, the man stabbed back, a thorn pierced Yang Song's thigh, Yang Song screamed in pain, the man pulled the Emei thorn back hard, Yang Song's thigh when the blood gushed, stained the robe red.
Yang Song didn't care about his own pain, and slapped the back of his knife to sit down on the horse's buttocks, and the horse jumped up in pain, jumped over the big man's head, jumped onto the bridge, and then knocked away several water ghosts, ran across the bridge, and ran south like a lightning speed.
Yang Song couldn't support it anymore at the moment, sat down on the ground, saw the big man approaching, used all his strength, and threw the steel knife in his hand at him, the man gently flicked it with the Emei thorn, and the knife fell to the ground with a bang, the big man stepped forward, stepped on Yang Song's chest, and stabbed him straight to his throat with the Emei thorn, Yang Song closed his eyes and waited quietly for death.
Someone in the distance shouted, "No! Dozens of horses galloped from far and near, came to the front, and held the reins, among which one was a dragon with phoenix eyes and three locks of long hair, which was Zhu Di, the king of Yan. On his left is Zhang Yu, the commander of the capital, on the right is Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Gaoyang County, and behind him are Qiu Fu, Huo Zhen and other personal guards.
The big man took off his hood, bowed to Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and said, "The commander of the guards in the lowly Yan Mountain is Zhu Neng, and he can see His Royal Highness. ”
Zhu Di nodded, and said with a spring breeze on his face: "This battle is really happy and hearty. Overnight, our army burned 500,000 stone of grain from the Southern Army, captured Xiongxian County, and destroyed two military guards. ”
The generals complimented: "That's not His Royal Highness King Yan's clever calculations and good commands. ”
King Yan stroked his beard, looked up to the sky and laughed: "This is all the work of the generals." After returning to Beiping, Lone must be rewarded. ”
He glanced at the captive at Zhu Neng's feet and asked, "The person at your feet is Yang Song, the commander of the Shaoxing Guard?" ”
Zhu Neng said in a deep voice: "Exactly, if it weren't for this kid's desperate protection, I would have caught Pingyanbu's political envoy a long time ago." ”
Zhu Di said: "God has the virtue of a good life, and Lone is not a person who kills indiscriminately, bringing a group of captives up." Lone to ask. ”
At this time, the battle between the two sides had ended, and the shore was littered with corpses, and there were captives of the Southern army who had raised their hands and surrendered.
The Yan army gathered all the captives in one place, and Pan Zhong was also wounded and captured, standing at the front of the queue with Yang Song.
Zhu Di patted his horse and came to the front of the team, and said loudly: "Lone is the son of Emperor Gao, who was ordered to guard the border, went out of the fortress several times, made outstanding achievements, and kept the courtier's festival and was forever a feudal screen." However, when the young lord ascended the throne, he listened to slander, slaughtered his relatives, and the five kings were martyred. According to the Emperor Ming Zu Xun, if there is no minister in the court, the prince can be in the heavens, and the Qing monarch is on the side, so he resolutely raised troops. The sky has eyes, the ancestors bless, and the first battle is won. If you can obey the heavens, return to our department, enter the Beijing Division, cut off the traitorous ministers, and share the wealth. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of spitting in the crowd, and he followed the prestige, only to see Pan Zhong and Yang Song standing proudly, with disdain in their eyes.
