Chapter Sixty-Nine: The King Rails Presents the City
Huazhou spans the two major basins of the Yellow River and the Haihe River, borders the Yellow River in the south, and bypasses the Grand Canal from the side, which is an important grain producing area in Henan, and is known as the "granary of northern Henan". Its Liyang warehouse was built in the period of Emperor Wen of Sui, is an important granary of the country, there is a saying of "Liyang harvest, solid Kyushu".
The word "slippery" in Huazhou is named after the slippery city. "Notes on the Book of Water" said: "The old saying is that the people of Huatai built this city by themselves, because of its name. ”
In the afternoon, Huazhou is located in the traffic area, the city gate as always people come and go, from all over the world to rush to the merchants, travelers, people are gathered here, is lined up, in turn through the inspection, into the city.
Suddenly, the earth began to tremble slightly, and the vibration of "dong dong dong" spread from the soles of the feet to the whole body.
"What's going on?" The goalkeeper reacted momentarily and wondered.
"Iron Rider! This is the shock of the cavalry running of the brigade! The well-informed travelers and traders who have traveled from south to north all year round reacted immediately and exclaimed.
As soon as these words came out, the crowd was boiling!
"There's cavalry coming!"
"There's going to be a war! Run! ”
In the troubled times, the people also have a good common sense, knowing that the cavalry must be heading towards Huazhou City at this time, and they will never embarrass them. As a result, the crowd began to scatter and flee at the first time, and the people who had entered the city were immediately scattered as beasts and birds.
"Ahh Fast into town! Fast into town! ”
"The enemy riders are coming! Close the gates! ”
"Pull the drawbridge! Pull the drawbridge! ”
The soldiers guarding the gate panicked, shouting and pulling up the drawbridge and closing the city gate.
An experienced team was hurriedly clinging to the ground, feeling the increasingly powerful vibrations of the ground, carefully discerning the strength and the sense of rhythm.
"Knock knock~!"
"Sonorous~!"
At this moment, the deafening sound of horses' hooves and the impact of iron objects were clearly in the ears.
Before long, the team immediately turned over, his face was surprisingly solemn, and without saying much, he rushed straight to the Assassin's Mansion.
Wang Rail's family is the head snake of Huazhou, since the chaos in the world, he sometimes belongs to the imperial court, sometimes to Li Mi, the banner of the city has been changed and changed, as long as it does not move to his one acre and three points of land, he is happy to spend money to eliminate disasters.
At this time, Wang Liang was in his newly renovated Thorn History Mansion, listening to a small song, admiring the dancing girl's swaying posture, holding a wine glass in his hand, he was really unhappy!
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency! Oh no, no! Just now, the team was panting for breath and quickly crashed into the Assassin's Mansion and shouted.
Yaxing was disturbed, Wang Liang was not angry, he was used to it, this army was chaotic and common.
"What are you panicking about, the sky can't fall, say it slowly!" Wang Liang took a sip of wine unhurriedly and said.
"My lord, an enemy horse is coming! The villain is attached to the ground, and according to the amplitude of the ground shaking and the sound that comes, it is at least the effect that tens of thousands of iron riders can have! The team was terrified.
Hearing this, Wang Liang knew it, no wonder this team was so panicked, tens of thousands of iron horses, this is not an ordinary thief can come up with a hand, it seems to be a big force.
"Can you see the banner of the enemy horseman? Whose cavalry is it? Wang Liang asked.
"No, the situation was urgent, and after judging the number of enemy horses, I immediately reported it!" The team shook their heads and said.
"Could it be Wei Jun!?"
But Wang Liang thought about it carefully and realized that something was wrong. Li Mi, the king of Wei who was closest to Huazhou, was able to make such a big move, and the iron cavalry troops of Pei Renji under his command, the outer horse army of Shan Xiongxin, and the inner horse army under the direct jurisdiction of Li Mi were all well-equipped and powerful iron cavalry troops.
But Li Mi had just finished the Battle of Luoshui and threatened the Eastern Capital, and his iron cavalry should be near Luoyang. Besides, his usual filial piety is in place, even if he wants to come to urge, Li Mi's Wei army has no reason to send so many people!
In addition to Li Mi, the only big force in the vicinity is Dou Jiande in Hebei. Since Dou Jiande's luck exploded, taking advantage of the fog that people could not recognize from a distance in the early morning of the same day, he sneaked into the military camp of Xue Shixiong, the general of the right imperial guard and Zhuo County, resulting in 30,000 Youyun iron cavalry bombing the camp, and after defeating Xue Shixiong bizarrely, with the equipment and prisoners sent by Xue Shixiong, a powerful iron cavalry was formed.
But Dou Jiande should be in Hebei at the moment, fighting with the "Mantian King" Wang Xuba and "Li Shanfei" Wei Dao'er, as the final competition for the master of Hebei, so will there be leisure to mix up the matter of Huazhou?
Wang Liang muttered: "Could it be that Wang Xuba and Wei Dao'er were defeated by Dou Jiande and led their troops to Huazhou?" ”
The team is vetoing: "No! I can hear it clearly, and the sound of the hooves of the incoming enemy horses is heavy, indicating that the horses are very heavily loaded, the breed is excellent, and the knights are all wearing armor, so it is very likely that they are elite cavalry! Most of the cavalry of the rogues are light horses, and it is impossible for Wang Xuba and Wei Dao'er to have such a skill! ”
If you can't figure it out, you don't want to think about it, Wang Liang decided at the moment: "Go, open the city gate, put down the drawbridge, don't be on guard!" ”
"Huh!?" The team didn't react at once.
Wang Liang patted the helmet of the team and said, "You are stupid! Such a big stroke, no matter who it is, it is not something we can afford to offend! Rather than the city being ruined, it is better to show enough sincerity as soon as possible! Anyway, whose flag is not planted at the head of the city!? ”
"Oh, what about you, my lord!?" The team asked.
"I need to change my clothes! Wait until I'm done listening to this little song first! After speaking, Wang Liang kicked the team's ass and said, "Go quickly!" Don't let people misunderstand, if there is a fight, it will be trouble! ”
"No!"
As the team was leaving, Wang Liang motioned for the dancers and musicians to continue playing, and while returning to his seat, he shouted to the inner hall: "Baby! Go and bring the official robe and the great seal! ”
After a stick of incense, Wang Rail came to Yu Wenshi and the Great Seal of the Assassin Shi in a human-like manner, and said respectfully: "In the Slippery Prefecture, Wang Rail, meet the general!" ”
Yu Wenshi took the thorn seal and sneered: "Lord Wang is very knowledgeable! ”
Wang Liang's face was not red, and his heart was not beating: "The lower official knows that he is invincible to the Heavenly Army, so he takes the initiative to surrender!" Which department does the general belong to? ”
"Isn't it written on the flag?" Yu Wenshi and even a long insight, they didn't know the number of the enemy, so they took the initiative to surrender, which is really worthy of being a snake in the troubled times.
Wang Liang said with a smile: "General, don't be joking, the Xiaoguo army brought by the saint is still far away in Jiangdu!" How could it be possible to come to my slippery state boundary! ”
Seeing this, Yu Wenshi couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to take out his waist card and said in a deep voice: "I am the Xiaoguo Army's general Yu Wenshi, and by the order of the Holy Lord, I specially led the army to come and open the way for the Northern Expedition!" ”
Hearing this, Wang Liang immediately understood the amount of information in Yuwenshi's words, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be General Yuwen!" Fortunately, fortunately! The flood washed away the Dragon King Temple! ”
Yu Wenshi shook his head, and said helplessly: "Lord Wang, in view of your behavior on the wall, Huazhou City will be temporarily taken over by the general, and this thorn history seal will also be kept by the general until the arrival of the holy car, and the decision of the saint!" ”
Wang Liang sneered: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Dare to ask when the holy car will come to Huazhou? ”
Yu Wenshi hooked his mouth and said, "Is this what you should ask?" ”
Wang Liang woke up, and instead stretched out his hand to invite: "General Yuwen, please enter the city!" ”
Seeing this, Yu Wenshi and ordered: "The whole army enters the city!" ”
