The sun is rising and the summer breeze is blowing.

The third artillery fort of the Wuyi Army in Bianzhou, Gao was standing in front, looking at the military city opposite, he was waiting for the wave of the flag of the middle base, and then he commanded the cannon in front of him to smash the city wall and cover the infantry to attack in one go.

Before the war, the Zen monks held a blessing ceremony for each cannon one by one, and the chanting of "loading the cannon is to set the wisdom, sending the cannon is the epiphany, and the cannon can be hit, and the cloth is on the ninth five-year".

Behind the fortification, there are a group of Taoist priests in Zhaijiao, worshipping the god of fire, the god of thunder, the god of electricity, and of course, the Yellow Emperor and the plain girl, praying that the cannon will not explode, and there will be no accidents when the gunpowder is mixed.

The sky gradually brightened, the monks and Taoist priests were no longer noisy, only a slightly black cloud slowly drifted to the head of the city of Bianzhou, Gao actually stood on a high place, and looked around, the bonfires of the camps of the officers and soldiers were burned out and extinguished, bursts of cyan smoke came out, and behind the bushes, all the weapons and armor of the infantry of the Wuyi Army were faintly shining.

"Launch." When Gao actually saw the flag waving down, he shouted very quickly and calmly.

A moment later, his feet shook violently, and the cannon on the right fired the first cannon pellet, cutting through the silence, and Gao actually watched it fly in the air until it hit a battlement, stirring up a large mass of earth, and then the second and third cannons rang out, which Bai Juyi and others commanded, followed by the fourth and fifth...... The sharp and shocking sound of cannons was almost suffocating and exciting, and in the midst of the firing of thousands of cannons, the city of Bianzhou shook.

Shelling also began on the south and north sides.

After one round, there was silence for about a quarter of an hour, and the next round of shelling began.

Wu Yijun kept his promise, and the cannon did not fire at Xili.

The second round of artillery bombardment, accompanied by the burning fire fired by the Tongwan artillery, was like a meteor falling from the sky, rapidly falling into the city of Bianzhou, and in the light of fire and thick smoke, the various units of the official army began to attack the city of Bianzhou from all directions along the pontoon bridges built with boats and planks on the moat.

The people of Xili were the most flexible, and when they saw that the shelling of the officials and soldiers had stopped, they began to carry ladders, and even opened the city gate to meet the officials and soldiers, and told the officials and soldiers: "Some of the Ya soldiers in Luocheng have fled into Yacheng, and some have disguised themselves as ordinary people and will no longer give their lives to Han Hong." ”

As the siege went so smoothly that in less than two hours, the official army occupied all parts of the north, west, and south, and only a lonely city of Dongli was left, like dead leaves trembling in the wind.

Han Hong was looking forward to the assistance of the Lu army in Ziqingping.

Originally, Li Shigu also thought that tens of thousands of elites of the Pinglu army would come out and reach Bianzhou along Caozhou.

However, the news that came one after another was:

Wang Zhixing, the vanguard general of the Wuning Army of the imperial court, conquered our Jinxiang, and the soldiers defending the city fought to the death and were beheaded 500;

Our side knows that the soldiers and horses made General Liu Wu out of Caozhou to reinforce Bianzhou, but was intercepted by the imperial court Fang Yicheng army, General Liu Wu killed many enemies, but the enemy was too tenacious, and he could not break through his position for the time being, and arrived in Bianzhou City.

"Why is it that our defense of the city is to fight to the death and not yield, and it is attacked by the enemy, and all the people are killed; Our attack on the city of the official army is a success, but it will always be, it will not be able to break through for the time being, and it will not be able to break through for the time being! "Angry, General Li Shigu smashed his love essay on the ground, and his seven orifices smoked.

After the anger was over, he was helpless, so he shouted and asked, what about Wei Botianxiong's army, why hasn't it arrived yet, why is the target still in Zhaozhou? Asked Tian Ji'an to send 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers to cross the river directly from the Daimyo's Mansion to our town, and then join forces along the Zhan Canal and go west to rescue Bianzhou.

Then he scolded Wang Wujun, why hasn't he defected to the court, what are you still hesitating about! If you have to wait for the fall of Bianzhou, it will be too late to regret it.

At this time, in the Daimyo's Mansion, Tian Ji'an was also extremely anxious, and he asked Xing Caojun and said, although I, Wei Bo, besieged Xiahou Zhongxuan in Zhaozhou City, but Bianzhou City couldn't support it, so it was better to withdraw the besieging troops and go south to help Han Hong, how about it?

Xing Caojun shook his head and said that Lang Jun was too young after all, and since the imperial court officials and troops were besieging Bianzhou, how could the periphery be defenseless? The Heyang Army and the Yicheng Army have sealed the river crossing route of our Tianxiong Army (Xiangwei 1st Road).

Tian Ji'an asked again, it is better to cross the river directly from the mouth of the Daimyo Yongji Canal, and work together with Li Shigu to save Bianzhou.

Xing Caojun thought about it and said that Lang Jun's plan was also feasible, but he would have to face the question of who would command the coalition forces at that time.

"I don't care so much, as long as I can save Bianzhou, what if my Tianxiong Army's posture is lowered." Tian Ji'an is quite aware of the overall situation.

In the end, Tian Ji'an put together another 10,000 soldiers and horses, let Shi Zhouluo take control, and sent them to the south bank of the Yellow River, and went with Li Shigu to rescue the Xuanwu Army in Bianzhou.

But to Princess Jiacheng, Tian Ji'an still lied, he coaxed the princess and said that the army still went south to assist the court to quell the chaos.

But at this time, the officers and soldiers who attacked Bianzhou City began to demolish the city walls and houses under Dongya City, preparing to attack imminently and pull out Han Hong's last stronghold.

That night, Gao Yue, Dong Jin, Hun Yang chariot and horse, entered the Bianzhou military palace, and sent people to occupy the transfer hospital, Dong Jin's hometown revisited, as if in a dream, and then in order to show not to disturb the people, but also to express gratitude to Gao Yue and Hun Xuan, he made a letter and summoned the women of Xili to hold a banquet.

It just so happened that Gao Yue was also ready to thank Luo Zhen, Liu Huotuo and others who had made miraculous contributions to the capture of Bianzhou City, so he happily went to the banquet.

During the banquet, Luo Zhen saw Gao Yue on the table, and Ying Ying bowed.

Ming Huaiyi, Guo Zaizhen and others got up and recounted the exploits of Luo Zhen and Liu Huoluo from beginning to end, among which Ming Huaiyi glanced at Luo Zhen, who looked excited, and said something extra: "Daddy, as the so-called 'since ancient times, beautiful women have been more enlightened, and chivalrous women have never been out of the dust', such chivalrous prostitutes for the country and the people, and they are really too aggrieved to stoop in the Xili Alley, Liu Huoluo is a person of the same clan, so I will pay hundreds of dollars to redeem her, and the other four will be accepted as concubines. ”

Liu Huotuo was overjoyed and thanked him immediately.

At this moment, Ming Huaiyi sat down, kept raising his eyebrows, and motioned to Daddy.

And Luo Zhen's heart beat like a drum.

Bai Juyi next to him was very excited when he heard it, and couldn't help but be amazed, and said more: "I see that Luo Zhen is beautiful and talented, since General Ming is willing to accept Liu Huo, then Luo Zhen can only be matched by Dong Xianggong, General Hun Da and Gao Taishi, which is also the beauty of a gentleman." ”（1）

"Rakuten, you're so right!" Ming Huaiyi immediately gave Bai Juyi a thumbs up.

Gao Yue was silent, and the other two Hun Xuan and Dong Jin also understood in their hearts that Luo Zhen's heart belonged to the Taishi, so what could they do, so Dong Jin also persuaded him: "I am still the envoy of the Xuanwu Festival for the time being, and I will come to issue a text to redeem the strange woman Luo Zhen." ”

At this moment, Gao Yue asked Guo Zaizhen, and Guo replied that I was willing to pay for the redemption, but the concubine was exempted.

Gao Yue looked at the treasures and colorful silks piled up around him, he had been saved by Luo Zhen once before, but he couldn't say thank you, so he could only send his collection to Luo Zhen, this time the military supplies were abundant, and he was willing to reward Luo Zhen for thousands of dollars.

But seeing Luo Zhen's expression, Gao Yue understood in his heart that giving her money was simply insulting her. It's really embarrassing.

Lucky Sura said

Here for Bai Juyi to say a fair word, Bai Juyi does have shortcomings, it can be said that he used poetry to force Guan Panpan to die, all out of nothing, because Bai was young in Xu Si, had been treated by Zhang Jianfeng and his concubine Panpan, and later knew that Panpan lived alone in the swallow building for the deceased Zhang Jianfeng widow (it is also said that Panpan is the concubine of Zhang Jianfeng's son Zhang Su, but it is not reasonable, see the Japanese scholar Fukumoto Masaichi's analysis), recalling his youth, he is embarrassed, so there is this work, which 'sees that the poplar can be used as a pillar, The sentence "Fighting for Religion is not a Dust" is to say that Zhang Jianfeng has been dead for a long time, and Panpan's deep affection for his husband has not changed, so that he is haggard as ashes, which is clearly Bai's sympathy for Panpan, which is also consistent with the theme of his other two poems, as for the understanding of ridiculing Panpan's "why don't you die yet", most of them are far-fetched and despicable by some literati in the Southern Song Dynasty and Ming Dynasty, and of course, there are modern scholars who regard it as evidence of feudal etiquette and religion, and play it out. Bai Juyi's own singer has never been martyred for him, so can he still go to Zhang's house? Bai does have a playful objectification of women and conservative poems, but he is not mean to women of all colors, at most he warns women to abide by women's morals before marriage, and at the same time has more sympathy and understanding for tragic women, such as the advocate girl who died young, the frustrated pipa girl, etc. Throughout the Tang Dynasty, the overall treatment of women is still lenient, even the Xiangyang Festival, which has always been unruly and cruel, has also left a good story of 'Hou Men enters the deep sea, and Xiao Lang is a passer-by from then on'. As for the story of Bai Juyi dying and panpan, it was formed in the Southern Song Dynasty, and as for why it was formed in this era, the reader just knows it
