Chapter 5: Chaos Emerges
Wang Langjun's conversation with Wang's mother was in a desperate situation, and he didn't know what to do.
At the same time, a strange thing happened outside Chang'an City.
I saw that outside the Donghua Gate, under the wind and snow, there was a sound of horses' hooves.
Faintly, not very real.
This made several soldiers in pale yellow armor standing guard above the city wall of Donghua Gate listen to the wind.
After all, it is very boring for the soldiers to stand guard and sentry, and it is difficult to find some fun to distract themselves.
You must know that standing guard and standing guard for two hours.
It's another snowy day, and this time is even more difficult.
And it was very cold, shivering and standing there in the cold, and couldn't move, wouldn't it be to freeze to death?
So, the soldiers have their own set of anti-freeze and ways to stay up for time.
That is, to distract the mind and think of something good, and the time will be better.
At this moment, they listened attentively one by one, as if they were infected, and moved their whole bodies, and at once the soldiers on the entire city wall listened attentively.
"Whew, da, whew"
The sound of wind and snow and the sound of horses' hooves are both, and I can't really hear it.
But it's fascinating.
This is the most important thing, and it has attracted thousands of people to listen.
"Squeak, squeak"
It happened that Vice General Huang led a patrol over, and as soon as he stepped into the city wall from the corridor, he found that the soldiers were listening attentively, and he scolded the soldier at the entrance of the corridor for some reason: "You, just you, turn around?" ”
"Ah, No!"
Okay, suddenly someone shouted behind him, turned around and looked in fright, only to realize that he had just listened to the sound and was engrossed, and he didn't even know that Vice Huang was coming, and it was over.
But there was more than one person who turned around.
It's a full twelve.
It was all frightened rabbits, and they turned around in a panic.
I turned around and found that I was stupid, what kind of turn, I was going to be unlucky when I turned around?
So, one by one, they stood tall and squinted, and the collar on the neck was invaded by the wind and snow, and they got into the gap in the neckline, and the cold shivering on the skin was invaded, but no one dared to move.
Seeing that Vice General Huang's eyes were full of anger, he immediately let go of his right hand pressed on the handle of the waist knife, raised it and waved forward, signaling the guards to be executed.
The eight guards who followed behind him came out like a coherent out, one approached a soldier, untied the soft whip hanging from his waist as he walked, and whipped it on the back of the soldier: "Bang pa"
A whipping, everybody has a share.
After about everyone received more than a dozen lashes, Vice General Huang waved his hand to the guards and stopped: "Stand down and let them say for themselves, what happened just now?" ”
He's not stupid, so many people are listening, there must be a problem.
It's just that the soldiers are stupid, and it's wrong.
How can you lose your vigilance when standing guard?
If this is touched by a scorn, these soldiers must not be wiped by the spies and go to hell?
Therefore, he signaled his guards to whip the soldiers, but the soldiers did not dare to squeak, and had to endure the pain of the whipping for life, remember for a long time, and no longer make mistakes.
"Report, my subordinates heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the official road, but it was intermittent and couldn't hear clearly......"
"Report, my subordinates heard the sound of two horses galloping......"
"No, it's a horse, it's not fast......"
"Shut up, what is the sound of horses' hooves, one will be faster and one will be slow?
Come on, open the city gate, and let the cavalry spies go to the official road to have a look, and there must be no mistake. ”
Vice General Huang walked to the edge of the city wall as he spoke, pressed his hand on the wall, and looked into the distance, there was a storm and snow, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
But he always felt that something was wrong.
The sound of horses' hooves was also heard, but it was faint, and it was drowned by the wind and snow.
It is said that in this five or six level of wind and snow, the speed of riding a horse is not fast.
Otherwise, you will be squinted by the wind and snow, choke on your nose, not only can't see the road conditions, but also suffocate.
Therefore, it is normal to not be able to run fast on horseback, but who would ride a horse on such a snowy day?
It must be known that the suddenness of this heavy snowfall frightened the people to disperse and go home.
After all, this is the first snowfall, and when it snows, there are too many things to prepare for frost and warmth, to prevent colds, and so on.
These are the problems that force people to return home.
Don't you see that the gates are closed?
Supposedly, the gates are closed, and there are not many people staying outside.
But the sound of horses' hooves was strange at this moment.
In the midst of this suspicion, after spending half a pillar of incense, the Tanma who went out of the city brought back a yellow horse with a soldier lying on the horse's back and a small yellow flag on his back.
"Puff"
Vice General Huang saw the little yellow flag on the back of the soldier, his legs were weak, and he sat on the snow.
But no one turned to look at him, it seemed that the little red flag was frightened, looking stupid?
It's not good, something big is wrong.
The border is in an emergency.
Vice General Huang intuitively felt a buzz in his mind, not because he was afraid, but because he couldn't dream of this kind of thing.
This hits, and the heart can't stand it.
Because I don't know what's going on at the border, I'm going to lose my head.
Originally, he didn't care about his business, but the soldier saw that he was not dead, and he couldn't wake up for a while.
However, this kind of thing cannot wait at all, and time cannot be delayed, otherwise it will be a death.
So, this kind of thing came to his head.
So he scared down.
"Rustle"
Not daring to slack off, Vice General Huang got up from the snow with a rolling belt, rushed down the stairs, and shouted and ran to the strange soldier to explore the horse: "Quick, the border pass is urgent, bring the horse over, and transfer two more cavalrymen over to escort this brother into the palace, quickly."
If you don't want to die, run ......"
As he spoke, he left behind him a whirlpool of snow and snow, and the man had already run to the cavalry scout, took the reins from the spy, and turned on his horse.
At this time, the spies untied the letterbox from the unconscious soldier's back and handed it to Deputy General Huang, who asked Vice General Huang to carry the letterbox of the border pass, put a small yellow flag on his back, and beat his horse into the palace.
"Drive, click"
"The border is in an emergency, and the idle people are evading ......"
Well, Vice Admiral Huang shouted while shouting, beating his horse and galloping, heading straight for the palace.
There was no obstacle all the way, and the people who saw it avoided the side of the road and sent the prime minister off.
When Vice General Huang rushed to the palace, under the guidance of the eunuch, he went straight to the imperial study: "Report, the border pass is urgent......
"Come in, the emperor is waiting."
Xiao Xiangzi stood at the door of the imperial study and waited for his arrival, and led him into the imperial study as he spoke.
"Puff"
Vice General Huang bowed his head, knelt and kowtowed in the center of the imperial study, and after three shouts, he presented the border pass letter and said: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen was patrolling the Donghua Gate and found that the border guard was unconscious on horseback.
Weichen didn't dare to slack off, so he took off the letter box from the back of the soldier and sent it to the palace......"
"Retreat outside the door and listen to the noise."
Li Shimin was worried about this matter, waved his hands in distraught and sent him out, took the border pass letterbox that Xiao Xiangzi transferred from Deputy General Huang, and took out the border pass report from it.
As he spread out the paper and looked at it, the whole person was not good.
In fact, there is very little handwriting on the paper, and you can read it at a glance.
There are only eight words in total: the plague is rampant, and the herdsmen break through......
No, that's it?
No, behind the eight words, there are bloody handprints all over the body, scarlet and dazzling.
Seeing that Li Shimin had lost his strength, he sat down on the Taishi chair, and said weakly: "Spread the order, pass the decree, isolate the border guards, and beware of the plague from infecting the people of the city."
In addition, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and other ministers who can be called are all called by me to discuss matters. ”
"The emperor is angry, take care of the dragon's body.
Just now, the servants have already sent someone to invite the ministers to enter the palace to see them.
Presumably, the ministers should have arrived at this time. ”
Xiao Xiangzi wanted to cry and knelt on the ground without tears and said.
In fact, Chang'an City is too big, and if the transmission of news is not effective, once it is besieged by a strong enemy, it will be a loss of one and the other.
After all, Chang'an City is too big, if you want to disperse the troops to defend the whole city in an all-round way, it is impossible to gather combat strength, it will take too many troops.
Therefore, in order to focus on defense, information is important.
First of all, prepare enough wolf smoke on the major city gates, guard against the enemy, activate the wolf smoke, and send a rescue signal so that the elite soldiers can rush to help.
However, this method has drawbacks, just like today's snowy day, the wolf smoke cannot be lit at all, and the wolf smoke is lit and set off, and other places are invisible.
Therefore, the commanding heights are reflected by strong light, and then the phrase code is set in the length of the number of times, so as to facilitate the communication and reporting of the commanding heights of all parties.
It worked today.
As early as when Vice Admiral Huang shouted loudly about the border pass, the information had been circulated throughout the city and notified to the mansions of the ministers.
It's just that the emperor forgot this section and made Xiao Xiangzi cry and laugh.
Li Shimin came back to his senses at this time and muttered: "What happened in the northern grasslands, how could there be a plague?"
If those herdsmen break into the pass with the plague, the consequences will be unimaginable......"
"Your Majesty, Wang Langjun has a set of curing diseases and saving people, why don't you invite him to come out, he will definitely be able to get rid of the disease......"
"Hey, that's true, then I ordered him to transport grain to the northern pass......"
