When the Northern Barbarian Iron Cavalry had not yet arrived in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, the Zhenbei Army under the command of Zhao Zhen and Wang Kun was already at the end of the strong crossbow, after all, they had fought Yue Dan first, and now they had to face the soldiers under the full strength of Da Liang.

If you make a mistake, you will lose.

Zhao Zhen and Wang Kun didn't expect Zhao Changyi to be so vulnerable.

In fact, the two of them knew it in their hearts.

It's not that Zhao Changyi is too weak, but that the empress is too strong.

In other words, it's not that the empress alone is too strong, but that the dead Yue Pingchuan is as strong as the empress!

Li Pingyang in Shuzhong was amazed.

But the empress has more amazing talents in the way of soldiers, especially after the appearance of the god general Xiang Yu, the situation has completely failed to reverse the situation - in fact, there was also a chance, if Meng Chong and Sui Tianbao could quickly push and kill Yue Dan.

However, it was like a joke.

Only when the army was really defeated in Jizhou, Wang Kun and Zhao Zhen knew that their opponents were not only the empress, but also the king of Daliangyue, Yue Pingchuan, who was willing to die in Xizhao Mountain for the sake of red face.

There was civil strife in the north, and the enemy of the small court had always been Yue Dan.

However, the real opponent is Yue Pingchuan.

The reason for this is simple.

Back then, Yue Pingchuan led the gale light horse south, and before leaving the city, he had a killing intent against Yue Dan, but in the end he didn't do it, the real reason is probably not just that he is unwilling to kill.

However, it turns out that even if Yue Pingchuan dies, he has a wonderful move.

Yue Shan finally took the word "Yue" on his back.

And Yue Pingchuan left Yue Dan's person, a Xu Zhu, sentenced Yue Dan to run to Shuzhong, a Hao Zhao, who defended the city and was unparalleled in the world, and a white-clothed Zhang surnamed Gun King, invincible in gunland.

Even Gao Lixian was reluctant to send troops to deal with Yue Dan.

This is the torment of the sixteen states of Yanyun.

Wang Kun and Zhao Wei even believed that once Yue Dan really carried the word "Yue", Yue Pingchuan would definitely leave Yue Dan with more than Hao Zhao and a few others - after all, Kaifeng in those years was the most carefree paradise for strangers.

So Wang Kun and Zhao Zheng were convinced.

In today's general trend, it is not easy for anyone to overthrow the empress, not to mention adding a Yue Pingchuan who is likely to be counted as one of the few heroes in the history of this world.

Who can be undefeated?

So Wang Kun and Zhao Zhen chose to enter the sea.

But it needs to be broken.

Someone please.

Find Zhao Zhen alone and ask for help.

At the right time, Zhao Zheng was standing on the city wall of Jizhou in the moonlight, looking at Kaifeng and looking at Lin'an, and he was touched.

Sui Tianbao, who was so burly as an ordinary person, went upstairs with his bare hands, came behind Zhao Zhen, knelt on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Minister, I have seen Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Yan didn't turn around immediately, but just glanced at the tired Zhenbei soldiers on the surrounding city walls, and said softly: "Have you ever felt that I am useless, and I have not been able to erect a banner of the Great Sui in this world?" ”

Zhao Zhen, who was originally a teenager, was as old as an old man at this moment.

Sui Tianbao smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, the situation is like this, the Empress of Da Liang is a strange woman through the ages, if she is not born, this Da Liang world will have a sense of loneliness like a long night." ”

There is no shame on anyone who loses to her.

Even the First Emperor of the Great Qin, in the face of this ancient woman, there is no sure victory.

The situation that Empress Daliang said at present is not obvious enough, but it is not surprising that once her goal is achieved, among the successive kings of this world, except for Chu, who has made the world civilized, there will be no one who can look up to it.

Even if it's Dayan Taizu, you can't!

Women are in the court, weak families and the world's poor people are all in the court, these two alone are enough to be famous for eternity.

What's more, the empress also intends to let Da Liang straighten her spine in front of Dongtu.

It can be said that the empress wrote a heavy stroke for the future prosperity of Datong, and only waited for the subsequent kings to add a few more strokes, and the world at that time was the real prosperous era.

It was a longing that even Sui Tianbao yearned for.

It's a pity that he can't see.

Zhao Yan turned around, looked at Sui Tianbao, and was silent for a long time, "What you said that day under Zuo Ci's blinding of heaven, and what the stranger who said that he was a person from the Tang Dynasty, are all false?" ”

Sui Tianbao bowed his head, "The words of the ministers are true, and the words of the descendants of the Li family of the Tang Dynasty should also be true." ”

Zhao Yan looked disappointed, "The country that my father single-handedly laid down, after my death, actually followed in the footsteps of the first emperor and died, the second died, it's sad and lamentable!" "Although after his death, there are still two puppet emperors, but what is that?

The shameful ear of the Yang family of the Great Sui.

Back then, he was in a hurry, which led to many rebellious ministers and thieves, and finally died in the hands of the traitor Yu Wenhua, as for Sui Tianbao, Zhao Yan and I don't remember.

I worked hard to inherit the prosperity of my father's emperor, but it was self-defeating, and after the chaos in the world, I lost my thoughts, and many things are now unwilling to think about it.

I just never thought that after coming to Daliang, I failed again because I was in a hurry.

Is God not allowing me?

Zhao Yan didn't know, but this time, he didn't plan to accept his fate, he wanted to go to the sea, waiting for the opportunity to kill back to Daliang, so he said softly: "I want to stay in the green mountains and come back one day." ”

The original intention was to ask Sui Tianbao if he would like to go together.

But after Sui Tianbao heard this, he said loudly: "Since the minister is the Tianbao of the Great Sui, when he has the consciousness of throwing a light head in state affairs, he is willing to shuai 500 Zhenbei Army, the old and young, the disabled and weak, and stay behind Jizhou." ”

If the minister is there, the pursuers cannot look at the dust behind His Majesty.

Zhao Yu choked up.

In the end, he just let out a long sigh, "It's a great misfortune that the Great Sui has me." "Thousands of achievements, in the eyes of future generations, are all tyrannical acts, and the world can know the real Yang Guang.

The hateful Taiyuan Li family!

He also said: "Da Sui has a heavenly treasure, which is lucky." ”

In his memory, no matter what the situation was, Sui Tianbao was always loyal to himself, and like the old general Yang Lin, he was the backbone of the Great Sui.

Sui Tianbao smiled, "The world doesn't understand Your Majesty, but the ministers know. ”

In the mouth of the descendant of the Li family of the Tang Dynasty, the tyrant Yang Guang, in his own eyes, is a peerless king who does not lose to the founding ancestor Yang Jian, just creating people.

Just like Wang Kun.

Who Wang Kun is, in fact, everyone already knows it, the Wang Mang who once tried to change the world by various means, but finally lost to history and died in the hands of Liu Xiu's pervert.

Wang Kun and Your Majesty, are they really as unbearable as later generations say?

Definitely.

Zhao Yan sighed, "Tomorrow morning we will set off, according to the sea painting Tu rubbing book obtained from Lin'an, find the big island, and then I will find a way to kill Wang Kun, if you succeed after the break, you can find a way to find me, I will leave you a sea map rubbing." ”

Sui Tianbao was about to refuse, but after thinking about it, he nodded, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Yan finally glanced at the world and went down to the city tower gloomily.

Sui Tianbao looked into the distance and thought a lot.

In both lives, they both died for the Great Sui, but in my heart, there was never a trace of regret.

A moment later, a eunuch hurried to the head of the city and sent a sea drawing step, Sui Tianbao took it, and after the eunuch left, he did not hesitate to burn the rubbing in the bonfire at the wall.

I will use my life to buy more time for His Majesty to evacuate.

What is the use of this rubbing?

If it falls into the hands of the Great Liang soldiers after his death, wouldn't it be unwise to expose His Majesty's whereabouts in advance.

Zhao Zhen and Wang Kun left with a large group of people.

In Jizhou, only Sui Tianbao remained, and the five hundred Zhenbei Army who looked at death as if they were old, weak, sick and disabled, even if they had broken legs and feet, they were all standing at the head of the city with knives at this moment.

Five hundred, solemn and silent.

Sui Tianbao was covered in armor, holding a phoenix-winged gold hammer, inspecting the brothers who were willing to live and die with him, and there were thousands of words in his heart, and finally only gathered into one sentence: "I am willing to die with all the kings, but I want one more thing, one more day, just one more step for Your Majesty, so that even if we shed blood, we will not hesitate!" ”

Five hundred were silent.

After a long time, an old soldier with a broken arm said softly: "General, we are originally soldiers in Zhenbei, loyal to the son of the Zhao family, and willing to serve His Majesty as the emperor. ”

Sui Tianbao smiled bitterly and glanced at everyone.

In fact, the Zhenbei soldiers who were willing to follow the Kaifeng small court to fight against Lin'an were all in this idea - in the final analysis, this was still the empress's move and Yue Pingchuan's move.

This is done on purpose, in order to completely exterminate those who do not obey the Empress of Daliang.

After being silent for a long time, he said: "Justice is at ease in people's hearts. ”

Everyone was silent.

Is there justice in this situation?

In the distance, there was already a cloud of dust, and the Zhenbei Army led by Yue Dan had already attacked with all their might, preparing to launch a final attack on Jizhou City, according to the original plan, it would be a battle to the death.

If it wins, the entire sixteen states of Yanyun will be a strategic depth.

If you lose, you have nothing.

It's just that today, it is still a battle to the death, but there is no longer victory or defeat, only life and death.

Can 500 soldiers guard Jizhou?

How many days can you keep?

Five people know.

But these 500 people clearly know that even if they can fight for half an hour more, then Your Majesty Zhao Yan will be able to walk for half a day more safely, and then there will be more hope for the future.

It's just that everyone knows that the empress has already quietly created the Dengzhou Water Division.

Zhao Zhen and Wang Kun will eventually need to break through.

Under Yue Dan's command, there were Hao Zhao, Yu Qiwen, the white-clothed spear king and several others who came, leading some of the Huya Tieben loyal to the Yue family, as well as tens of thousands of Zhenbei soldiers, to the front of Jizhou City.

Looking at the sparse hundreds of city guards on the city wall, as well as the few flags, and the open main city gate, Yue Shan frowned.

There should be 20,000 or 30,000 people under Zhao Zhen's command.

Why is it so?

Could it be that Zhao Yan also wants to learn from that Wolong and come up with an empty city plan?

Wrong!

Zhao Yan would never dare to take such a big risk.

If he loses Jizhou, he will completely lose his foothold in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, so this is likely to be a trick to lure the enemy, deliberately making himself think that he is using an empty city plan and brazenly attacking the city, and finally fall into the trap.

Let's test it first.

Yue ordered a thousand soldiers and horses, first poured crossbow arrows into the city, and shot all over the urn city, and then these thousand people rushed in with all their might.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the gate, the gate creaked and closed.

Immediately, there was the sound of drums and battles in Zhentian, as well as the faint howls hidden in the drums.

Sure enough, it's a trap?

Yue Shan was taken aback, and found Yu Qiwen to discuss countermeasures.

In the end, it was decided to wait for the news from the scouts who bypassed Jizhou, and then decide whether to attack the city with all their might-Yu Qiwen was a little skeptical, whether Zhao Wei had withdrawn from Jizhou City.

And in the urn city, five hundred soldiers beat drums.

Sui Tianbao killed the enemy alone.

Dressed in armor and holding a phoenix-winged gold hammer as if entering a no-man's land, a thousand Zhenbei army elites, no one can stop the phoenix-winged gold hammer, almost no one hits, to take away several lives.

Sui Tianbao, the ninth in the thirty-three swordsmen chart, seems to be lower than Yue Dan, who is the eighth in the suspension.

But the two actually didn't separate the winner or loser.

Now the rankings of the two are above Ah Mu, when Ah Mu once broke three hundred families with one sword, and now Sui Tianbao, phoenix wings and gold hammer in hand, go all out and don't have to be afraid of thunder, a thousand people are really not enough for him to kill.

In less than half an hour, none of the 1,000 Zhenbei troops in the urn city survived.

Sui Tianbao's armor was covered with blood.

Enemy blood.

After hiding behind the battlements and observing, Sui Tianbao smiled, knowing that Yue Dan had already fallen into his own strategy of delaying the army, and there would probably be no more fighting in a few days, and Yue Dan would inevitably wait for the scout to reply before attacking the city with all his might.

This will probably have to wait until tomorrow.

After all, it takes at least half a day for the scouts to catch up with His Majesty and the others, and then return to report the news, and it is more than half a day.

I simply took off my cloak and washed, recuperated and prepared for tomorrow's battle.

As Sui Tianbao expected, when Yue Dan received a reply from the scout on the second day, saying that he had found traces of Zhao Zhen's army at the border of Jizhou City, he knew that he had fallen for the defense of Jizhou City's plan to delay the army.

There's no hurry.

Yue Dan and Yu Qiwen both guessed Zhao Yan's intentions, thinking that they wanted to enter the sea.

However, there is a Dengzhou sailor waiting for him.

However, Yue Dan didn't have time to attack the city, but as soon as the siege equipment was ready, the city gate suddenly opened, and the old opponent Sui Tianbao was covered in armor and went out of the city alone.

Yue Dan knew that if the soldiers of Zhenbei did not sacrifice one or two thousand people, they would not be able to kill Sui Tianbao at all.

Shoot the horse and chase Sui Tianbao.

However, Sui Tianbao had no intention of fighting Yue Dan at all, and even carried the pain of being pierced through the calf by Fang Tian's halberd, and killed more than 100 people before retreating to the city.

Yue Dan's face was black.

He guessed the reason: there was no one in the city.

Sui Tianbao was stalling for time to buy more time for Zhao Zhen's retreat.

In that case, you can't be fooled again.

Wave your hand and attack the city with all your might.

However, unexpectedly, it went very smoothly, there was no one on the city wall at all, and after entering the city, a skirmish broke out - some enemy soldiers mixed with the boss's surname, taking advantage of the terrain of the streets and alleys, sniping and killing lone soldiers in groups.

Yue Dan was extremely helpless.

He could only lead the army to clean up every street and alley one by one, and finally saw Sui Tianbao outside the Jizhou Prefecture.

There was no one around.

There is only one corpse - all of them are Yue Dan's sons.

Yue Dan hated.

Without a word, he pounced on Fang Tian's painting halberd - with all his strength, he shook Sui Tianbao, who had consumed a huge amount of physical strength.

The ending is obvious.

When Fang Tian's halberd passed through Sui Tianbao's waist, the general glared angrily.

Died of rage.

Yue Shan looked at Sui Tianbao's corpse and was silent for a long time before he said to one of his subordinates: "Pass my order, bury this general, please abandon General Wen Yu, and lead the wind and light cavalry to chase after Zhao Zhen!" ”

The ministry will immediately send an order.

Yue Dan stuck Fang Tian's halberd on the ground, sat next to Sui Tianbao's corpse, and sighed, "I, Yue Dan, have two lives, and I have few opponents, you are the first person, and I admire you more than that Li Ruyu." ”

It's a pity that you died meaninglessly.

Your heroism is just to buy Zhao Yan some time to survive.

That's exactly what I said.

The king is safe, and the soldiers have 100,000 blood.

Sad.

Magnificent.
