Chapter 101: Overwhelming (Asking for a Subscription and Asking for a Monthly Pass)

On Chengnan Street, a richly decorated carriage slowly walked down the street towards Zhao's mansion.

Zhao Hao, who was slightly drunk, sat on the soft fox leather seat, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was asleep, and he had a lot of thoughts.

The night before yesterday, Wu Song and Han Shizhong fought a drinking battle, and in the end Han Shizhong lost completely, and was drunk under the table by Wu Song, and kept shouting that he was invincible all over the Western Army, and finally in desperation, Zhao Hao had to hire a carriage and let Wu Song personally send it to the Western Army's station.

Next, Han Shizhong and Wu Song fought for three days, and Zhao Hao also accompanied them for three days...... King Han Qi, who is as famous as Yue Wumu, is willing to accompany him even if it is three days, even if it is a month.

Fortunately, the main force of the wine fight is Han Shizhong and Wu Song after all, and he doesn't drink much, just slightly drunk.

Counting that the crossing was exactly a year, listening to the sound of horses' hooves and wheels rolling outside the carriage, Zhao Hao only felt like a dream...... I don't know whether I am the host or the guest in the dream, it seems like a dream, not a dream.

Along the way, Zhao Hao was so drunk, with the slight bumps of the car, Ren 's thoughts wandered endlessly with the night breeze that rushed into the car window.

Suddenly, the carriage slowly stopped, Liang Lie lifted the curtain of the carriage, and said in a low voice: "Miss Wang's carriage is ahead." ”

Zhao Hao was stunned for a moment, opened the curtain, and saw a gorgeous carriage made of two horses in front of him, bathed in a faint moonlight, coming slowly, and the wheels rumbling on the bluestone slab ground.

The car passed by, and continued to move on, but it went very slowly, very slowly......

It wasn't until the end of the carriage was level with the carriage that Zhao Hao was riding that the wheel suddenly stopped.

Zhao Hao suddenly seemed to understand something, put down the curtain, retreated to the seat, gently lifted the curtain, and found that outside the window, it was facing the window next to it - there was only a three-inch distance between the two cars.

This handlebar type must be the instructor of Lanxiang Driving School......

The opposite curtain was also lifted, revealing a delicate and beautiful face, which should be happy and disgusting.

A pair of affectionate eyes as clear as autumn water, like joy or not joy, like anger and not hatred.

The two looked at each other speechlessly, as if they had a thousand words to say, but they didn't know where to start, they just looked at each other, and everything was silent.

After a long time, she said, "You want to go with the army?" ”

He smiled slightly: "There is no hope of making achievements, and it is good to have more experience." ”

"I'm afraid it's going to be a few months away, right?"

"Perhaps...... I don't know. ”

Wang Xin didn't speak again, just looked at him quietly, her eyes showed endless love, she suddenly turned around again, and when she turned back again, she handed out a package: "This armor, you wear it on your body, I am so relieved......"

Zhao Hao took the package and was about to thank him, but Wang Xin had already lowered the curtain, and the vehicle started slowly.

Zhao Hao only felt stunned, and suddenly the curtain of the car was lifted again: "Don't forget to go back to Jiangning before August...... Treasure! ”

"Precious!"

Zhao Hao kept staring at the gorgeous carriage, bathed in the moonlight, and disappeared at the entrance of the street, before opening the package in his arms.

A piece of armor.

Crocodile leather armor - known as invulnerable, invulnerable to fire and water black leather armor.

The most difficult to absorb the grace of beauties......

You can gallop on the battlefield, and take the enemy's head in the midst of thousands of armies; can also be powerful and heavy, and he can be comfortable in the court; Even...... Reign over the world and look down on all beings.

It's just that this woman, this woman who has been worrying about you day and night, a woman who wants to accompany you for a lifetime, you can't forget her goodness, you can't bear to hurt her gentleness, she is an enemy you can't bear in this life.

Perhaps, the original competition to recruit relatives was just a whim;

Perhaps, the sweet words of the poem are just a momentary move;

Perhaps, in the deepest part of your soul, she is not the one you miss the most

It's just that she gradually melts into your blood, invades your soul, and has no way to get rid of it......

*************

Outside the south gate of Jiangning City.

150,000 Song troops gathered, standing solemnly, with halberds like forests and armor like snow.

Among the flags like clouds, there is a big flag erected in the middle, which is embroidered with a big "Song" character, hunting and fluttering in the wind, which makes people proud and sudden.

Tong Guan was dressed in fish-scale iron armor, a snow-white battle robe, and a sword hanging from his waist, sitting proudly on the back of an eight-foot-tall BMW, and the tiger skin hunting behind him was waving in the wind.

This person is probably the most heroic eunuch besides Zheng He......

Behind him, Liu Yanqing, Wang Yu, Liu Zhi, Wang Lian, Wang Weizhong, Xin Xingzhong, Wang Yuan and other generals were all draped, with cold and majestic expressions.

Standing in the middle of the line, Tong Guan's personal guards - Shengjie Army, on the left are the Jingshi Forbidden Army and Jinghu gun players, and on the right is the Western Army.

Only listening to the drums and horns, the trumpets were everywhere, the army had begun to camp, and the Jingshi Forbidden Army and Jinghu gunmen under the leadership of Liu Yanqing set up camp and took the lead to the south.

The people of Jiangning saw off at the west gate of the city, and the procession of seeing them off was two or three miles long before and after the city gate.

Zhao Hao wore a crown of pearl hair, wore black Jiao leather armor, covered with a hundred flowers robe, stepped on the clouds, rode a white war horse of more than seven feet, with a hundred steel swords on the left, and a bull horn bow and a pot of arrows on the left, full of energy and radiant, and waved to Xie Yun who came to see him off in the crowd from time to time.

Although he was not an official or a general, he was able to stand side by side with Wang Weizhong, the commander of the Shengjie Army, standing behind Tong Guan, looking heroic and majestic, comparing Wang Weizhong on the side.

This Wang Weizhong was not the one who died unjustly in the Southern Song Dynasty later, and the difference between the two was a hundred years.

This person is about thirty years old, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a handsome face, although he has been in the military for a long time, he still has fair skin, bright armor all over his body, and straddles a high-headed horse, he looks very good, but he seems to have disdain for Zhao Hao, and he is slightly hostile, but Zhao Hao is too lazy to care about these details.

A graceful girl wearing a white veil stood in the crowd, staring at Zhao Hao intently, with a somewhat sad look in her eyes.

She cut her eyes like water, and looked at the radiant young man stupidly, and her heart was confused. The rain of guns and arrows, and the dangerous battle, will keep her awake and frightened for many days.

In a trance, Zhao Hao had disappeared at the gate of the city with the army.

Yang Fang finally woke up from his contemplation, raised his eyes to look at the city gate, looked at the army like a long dragon in distraction, and muttered: "He is gone......"

Finally, the last row of soldiers disappeared at the city gates, and the people slowly dispersed.

On a hillside on the outskirts of the city, Wang Xin and Wang Jue stood with their horses in hand, looking at the mighty team in the distance with misty eyes, and whispered to themselves: "This time, when will we see each other again?" The mountains and rivers are far away, all the way to cherish, don't miss the auspicious day, I ...... Waiting for you. ”

In the distance, Zhao Hao, who was in the army, suddenly sneezed, and said to himself in his heart: Is this going to catch a cold, or is someone missing me?

******************

Tong Guan's army was divided into two routes, the left route led by Liu Yanqing with a total of 70,000 people from Xuanzhou and Shezhou to attack Muzhou, while Tong Guanqin led the Shengjie army and the Western Army with a total of 80,000 troops on the right to attack Hangzhou from Runzhou, Changzhou, Suzhou, and Huzhou.

Fang La's 100,000 peasant army swept through the entire south of the Yangtze River in half a year, exposing the corruption and incompetence of the local Xiang army in the Northern Song Dynasty. Tong Guan's two-way army educated Fang La well, letting him know the difference between the forbidden army and the local box army.

In particular, the western army of Tong Guan, with thousands of cavalry led by the Bai Qi soldiers, treated those defenseless peasant armies like tanks to crush the enemy formation, so that the peasant army had no power to fight back.

As soon as the cavalry in front rushed, the rebel formation was already in disarray, and then the elite soldiers of the Western Army and the Shengjie Army with bright armor rushed away, and the rebels were defeated like a mountain, simple and rude, killing people like harvesting heads, and there was no pressure at all.

The rebels' combat experience is not as good as that of the Song army, and their equipment is not as good as the Song army, and the only thing they rely on is the morale brought by the large number of people and the theory of ghosts and gods, but these are not worth mentioning at all in front of the Western army that has just completely surrendered to the Western Xia.

The speed of the rebels attacking the city was fast, and the speed of the rout was even faster, but in more than a month, Tong Guan's left army had swept all the way through the rebels, breaking through Runzhou and Changzhou, and entering the territory of Suzhou and beating most of the Suzhou Mansion, and the troops were under the city of Suzhou.

Under the city of Suzhou, 80,000 troops waved their flags and camped for ten miles, besieging Changzhou City.

There are about 30,000 rebels in the city, and the main general of the rebels guarding the town is Lu Shinang, who was named the privy envoy of the East Hall by Fang La, and the deputy general Suzhou Shisheng.

The 80,000 powerful forbidden army, the main force of which is the Western Army that has just ravaged the Tangut people, attacking the city where the remnants of the 30,000 rebels will be defeated and defended, was originally not a problem.

However, Lu Shisang was originally the leader of Manichaeism in Runzhou, and was called "a demon who eats vegetables", and most of the defenders in the city were Manichaeans under his command, and they worshiped Lu Shisang like a god, which was no less than the degree of fanatical worship of the believers of a small Three Kingdoms to Master Qiang X, and they were all willing to die calmly for him, and they were proud of dying in battle.

In addition, Suzhou City is also regarded as a Xiongguo city in the south of the Yangtze River, with high walls and thick walls, and it is extremely strong.

After two days of fierce onslaught, both sides suffered extremely heavy losses.

Among them, the rebels lost more than 3,000 people, and the city was full of corpses. But Tong Guan couldn't fight the Western Army and the Shengjie Army. After two days of fierce fighting, due to the huge advantage of defending the city, the elite division of the Song army also lost more than 3,000 people, which made Tong Guan feel distressed.

Seeing that the rebels were united and fighting to the death, Tong Guan had to pause the assault and discuss with the generals how to break the city.

Tong Guan's big tent of the Chinese army was crowded with the generals of the left army.

Zhao Hao and Wang Wenqing were originally non-officials and non-generals, and this kind of high-ranking military officer's deliberation had little to do with them, but Tong Guan politely invited the two to participate in order to show respect for these two informal military advisers, as well as respect for the clan and Taoist real people.

The generals deliberated and deliberated, from the morning until the middle of the day, but after all, the decision was not decided.

According to Yang Keshi's opinion, 800 people were selected from the Bai Zhan soldiers as the death squad, and when the enemy's vigilance was the weakest at the fourth watch, they attacked from the northwest city wall and opened the city gate.

Even if this plan was vetoed by Tong Guan, the Bai Xuan soldiers were the elite of the Northwest Army, and the imperial court spent a lot of money to build it, so it was not allowed to risk it on the rebels.

The rest of the people, some of whom offered to dig tunnels into the city, and some of whom offered spy schemes...... There are also loopholes, which made Tong Guan unable to make a judgment for a while.

"There is a plan, maybe it may break Suzhou City, I don't know if it should be said."

Just when everyone was arguing, suddenly a person stood up and said loudly.
