Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is December 1 of the 19th year of Jianyuan.

The first heavy snow fell in the sky in the nineteenth year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, and the snowflakes fell one after another, drawing corpses and stepping on the remains, blood red and snow white.

"The last general, Pei Shengqin, see the king of Nan'an, see the princess."

Pei Shengqin saluted, and at the same time shook the thick tiger-striped cloak outside the armor, and shook off the frost and snow all over the ground.

Fu Deng and his wife are both wearing crane feathers and looking plain, but they are actually much more valuable than the tiger skin behind Pei Shengqin, and the effect of keeping out the cold is also better. Fu Deng probed his hand to pick up Pei Shengqin, and said with a smile: "You and I have been separated for a month, and we are reunited today, which is worth celebrating!" ”

It has been nearly a month since the expedition was set out on November 4. The Tiance army and the Longxi army entered Donghai County in two ways, and until today, they finally met outside Lanling City and completed the siege of Lanling!

"How is the battle situation of the Tiance Army?"

"All the cities along the way have been recovered, and a total of 12,000 barbarian soldiers have been killed."

The achievements of the Tiance Army have been exaggerated, you must know that the routes assigned by Fu Deng to the Tiance Army are almost all calculated in the chicken rib areas that the Eastern Jin Dynasty will not focus on defending, and the strategic points of Donghai County are all attacked by the Longxi Army.

The Jin army in the East China Sea has 50,000, the Longxi army also has 50,000, and the Tiance army has only 5,000. Who would have expected that all the way over, the Tiance Army would wipe out 12,000 Jin troops with 5,000 troops! This number is already a quarter of the total number of Jin troops in the East China Sea!

"It was the fault of this king that he almost harmed the brothers of the Tiance Army." Fu Deng said apologetically.

I knew that there were so many Jin troops on the route of the Tiance Army, and Fu Deng would definitely not arrange it like this, which was not much different from plotting to kill the Tiance Army.

Pei Shengqin shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Then Liu Yu deliberately targeted our army, how could the prince predict it?" This is not the prince's fault. On the contrary, if it weren't for the princess's rescue, the last general would not have lived today. ”

If it weren't for the 8,000 Jin troops under Liu Yu's command, in fact, the total number of Jin troops encountered along the way would be more than 4,000, which was completely within the ability of the Tiance Army. Fu Deng's prediction was accurate, and he didn't pit the Tiance army, so Liu Yu shouldn't have been in Xiangben, he purely took the initiative to appear in an ambush, which no one expected. Intrigue and trickery, unexpected, this should be considered a normal operation for Liu Yu.

Mao Qiuqing smiled: "Then did Liu Yu still appear later?" ”

Pei Shengqin responded: "No." ”

Although there are 50,000 Jin troops in the East China Sea, the commander is Liu Gaozhi, Liu Yu is just a member of Liu Gaozhi's account to join the army, and mobilizing 8,000 people to set up an ambush must be his greatest authority. What's more, this ambush was wiped out by the whole army, not to mention continuing to lead the troops, and after going back, he would definitely be punished by Liu Gao. With his seriously injured body, and then dozens or hundreds of military sticks or something, maybe he could be killed directly.

Liu Yu is a typical gambler, knowing that in the face of Fu Deng's 50,000 main army, it is difficult to make great achievements with his strength, so he aimed at the Tiance army with a small number of people, and mobilized all the forces he can mobilize to set up an ambush and sniper.

Fu Deng looked at the team of the Tiance Army, frowned, and said: "Before the expedition, didn't the imperial court distribute enough armor to the Tiance Army, why are there still people wearing Nanban military uniforms?" ”

It turned out that in the Tiance Army, there were a small number of soldiers wearing silver-white armor, although the tassels on the helmet were deliberately dyed black, but they were still incompatible with the consistent black armor of the Qin army, and it was obviously the military uniform of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Pei Shengqin explained: "After the first battle of Xiangben, our army suffered heavy losses, so we recruited 2,000 young men from the people of Xiangben to fill the army. ”

Fu Deng smiled: "I see, this king happened to bring some more armor in his army, and I will give you some of it later." I'm a big Qin Erlang, always wearing a Southern Barbarian military uniform, like what? ”

Pei Shengqin thanked with a smile, after the expansion of the Tiance Army, it has now reached 6,000 troops, but its combat strength is slightly weaker than before, after all, there are one-third more recruits.

Fu Deng welcomed Pei Shengqin into the big tent, and the important generals of the Longxi Army and the Tiance Army also sat down with the two.

"Why don't you see you?" Pei Shengqin looked at the account, but there was no Qing Qing, and he couldn't help asking.

"Lord Yu was just ordered to give me a ride, and after I met my husband, she went back to Xiangcheng to resume her life. How can you stay here for a long time? Mao Qiuqing came to Fu Deng and sat down beside him and explained to Pei Shengqin.

Pei Shengqin nodded: "I see." ”

A burly general in the tent stood up and said: "My Longxi army has been conquering all the way, and all the cities and towns it encounters have been recovered. More than 20,000 barbarians were killed, and thousands of battle losses were lost. Counting the gains of the brothers of the Tiance Army, Liu Gaozhi now has a maximum of sixteen or seven thousand people left on hand. And our two armies will meet, but there are still 50,000 people, and it is not a problem to capture Lanling! ”

Pei Shengqin only felt that this burly general in the Longxi Army was not an idle person at first glance, and he may have left a name in history, so he couldn't help asking: "Dare to ask this general's surname?" ”

The burly general grinned and said, "The last general is thunderous, I've seen Xiao Pei Gongzi!" ”

Pei Shengqin was shocked in his heart, this person was actually a thunderous land!

Lei Badland, one of the top ten famous generals of the former Qin, visited the general of Zhengdong in the second year of Taichu. In the first four years of Taichu, Qin Taizong Fu Deng drove his own expedition, and the traitor Yao Chang set up an ambush to trap and kill Fu Deng, but Fu Deng did not notice. When Lei Vicious heard the news and guessed that there was fraud, he galloped to the front line to face the saint, and stated the stakes, so that Fu Deng noticed Yao Chang's trick and survived. As a result, the imperial army turned defeat into victory and repelled the rebels. Lei Vicious Land became famous because of this battle and ranked among the top ten famous generals!

"General Lei's appearance is extraordinary, and he will be a dragon among people in the future!" Pei Shengqin just told the truth, but Lei Vicious was very happy, he smiled and said: "Cheng Xiao Pei Gongzi Ji Yan!" ”

The fierce generals in the Longxi army are like clouds, and Lei Vicious Land is not too conspicuous in the Longxi Army at this time.

"Deng Qiang, Zhang Oy, Kou Yi, Shi Yue, Qi Qing, Fu Rong, Lei Baddi, Yang Ding." Pei Shengqin silently counted in his heart, the top ten famous generals of the former Qin, he has seen eight people so far. Even one of them was his subordinate, the other was his eldest brother, and the other called him Master... After counting, among the top ten famous generals, except for Liang Cheng, who has passed away, he is only the Hezhou Thorn Shi Mao Xing who has never seen him.

Among them, Deng Qiang, Zhang Hao, Fu Rong, Liang Cheng, and Mao Xing assisted the current Qin Emperor Fu Jian to sweep the countries and achieve prosperity; Shi Yue and Kou Yi assisted Emperor Fu Pi to turn the tide, and Kou Yi rode alone after the death of Emperor Aiping, and took the two young princes to fight out of the siege and defect to Fu Deng; Qi Qing helped Fu Deng to take power at a critical moment, and played a role in Kuang Ding's society, and the contributions he made secretly are even more difficult to count; Thunder and evil assisted Taizong Fu Deng to go around to quell the chaos and stabilize the country; Yang Dingze was loyal and unyielding at the last moment, followed the late emperor to quell the rebellion, and was martyred with the last emperor Fu Chong. Among these ten people, no matter which one of them is a well-deserved famous general.

It is worth mentioning that at the end of the Qin Dynasty, he enjoyed the country for 44 years, and the number of famous generals was far from ten, and these ten people were just representatives of later generations. There are also many people such as Murong Chui, Yao Chang, Lu Guang, Tuoba Jue, etc., whose papers are also very clever, and they are completely enough to be selected as one of the top ten famous generals. However, these people finally chose to be treason and self-reliance in history, and their loyalty and righteousness were lost, and later historians believed that they were "ashamed of being Qin ministers", so they did not include these people in the top ten famous generals.

"The Longxi army has brilliant achievements, and the prince has a good command of the army, and the last general will admire it." Pei Shengqin praised from the bottom of his heart, the Longxi army advanced all the way, as the besieging party, annihilating more than 20,000 enemies, but only losing thousands of battles, which was really powerful. If Pei Shengqin is not mistaken, the world's strongest army at the end of Qin, "Dead and Guard", should be the old foundation of the Longxi Army.

Fu Deng looked at the huge map hanging in the tent, and said lightly: "The more this battle is fought, the more demoralized the barbarians will be, and almost all of them will flee when they hear the wind, and it is also luck to be able to advance to Lanling so quickly." ”

"That's so... Why did the morale of the Nanban suddenly slump? Pei Shengqin's eyes suddenly widened and asked suspiciously. He attacked the city several times later, and he also obviously noticed that something was wrong with the Jin army, and it became the norm to flee from the wind. At first, I thought it was a fraud, but after a few tests, I found that the Jin army seemed to have really weakened.

Fu Deng said in a low voice: "There are rumors within the Nanban that the Chen Jun Xie clan intends to rebel. The barbarian soldiers on the battlefield in Xuzhou were all under Xie Xuan's command, and when they heard such rumors, they were naturally at a loss for what to do, and their combat power suddenly decreased. ”

Pei Shengqin was really shocked this time: "The Chen Jun Xie clan is going to rebel? How is this possible? ”

Not to mention that the Xie clan has never rebelled in history, even if it wants to rebel, it will have to wait until the war is won and rebuilt. At this time, the Former Qin counteroffensive was in full swing, and the Xie clan had eaten too much before rebelling at this time. The Eastern Jin Dynasty is really a magical country, at such a critical moment, there are such rumors in the country, and some people really believe it...

Seeing Pei Shengqin's surprised expression, Fu Deng couldn't guess what he was thinking, and couldn't help but say: "Nanban is not a fool, if it is really nonsense, it will not affect morale so much." According to news from Jiankang, it was said that the puppet emperor Sima Yao entered Xie An's mansion and suddenly fainted, and he has not woken up yet. This matter was confirmed by the Blue Fly Division and was indeed true. It's just that I don't know what happened in Xie An's Mansion, and the Blue Fly Division is still investigating. Probably because of this incident, the Xie family's rebellion was rumored to be clear-sighted, and there were many people who believed in it. ”

Sima Yao was in a coma in Xie's house? There is no such thing in history. Pei Shengqin was immediately interested, and said: "I don't know why the puppet emperor Sima Yao fainted in the Xie Mansion, I don't believe that the Xie clan really wants to rebel, but at least before the puppet emperor wakes up, the Xie clan can't be washed even if he jumps into the Yellow River." Attacking Lanling at this time will definitely be twice the result with half the effort. ”

The only regret in Pei Shengqin's heart is that he had just plagiarized and tampered with a famous essay in later generations some time ago, and planned to scold Sima Yao according to the routine of scolding Xie An last time. Unexpectedly, Sima Yao fell into a coma inexplicably, and I don't know if he saw the text he tailored for him for the first time before he fell unconscious.

If not, that's a shame!

Mao Qiuqing said: "This thing is also strange, it doesn't seem like a coincidence, is it someone doing it on purpose?" ”

Fu Deng said with a smile: "If it is really a master who can do such a big thing quietly, the court will definitely reward him after finding out." This credit is not lost to you and me! ”

Regarding Sima Yao's, everyone just talked about it casually, and then focused on Lanling again.

Pei Shengqin said solemnly: "There are rumors in the Southern Barbarians, our army has risen to encircle, and the people in Lanling City are interested in the imperial court. If today's time and place are favorable, all in our dynasty, Liu Gao's turtle shrinks Lanling, and he does not dare to compete with our army. The last general proposed, strike while the iron is hot, and attack Lanling immediately! ”
