Text Section 281 Heaven is angry and people are resentful

In Kyoto, Great Xia, this time the court sent troops, and Delong had no choice but to do it. Xiangguo Wu Guangguang and others jointly signed a letter to save Daxia from peril. After discussion, the six important ministers put forward an innovative plan under the leadership of Wu Guangguang. Although Delong has a negative opinion on some suggestions, the current situation does not allow him to veto, and Delong must rely on Wu Guangguang and others to maintain the operation of the court. This dispatch of troops is one of the key innovations of Wu Guangguang, Chuti and others.

Wu Guangguang knew that in order to save the court from being forgotten, the only way out was to fight for public opinion under the banner of resisting the enemy. Regardless of whether or not the hearts of the people can be reunited, at least let people not forget that this country is still the country of Great Xia, and Kyoto is still the capital of Great Xia. Otherwise, it won't be long before they will be completely abandoned by the people of Great Xia.

Inside the palace, there is an air of decay everywhere, and it has lost its former glory. Delong lay on the soft collapse of the Silent Pavilion, his body growing thinner and thinner. The favored minister Zhang Zhao looked at it worriedly from the side, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

Since the capitals of all regions announced their separation from the court, the Heavenly Prison has lost its former prestige. Delong only cares about self-preservation, how can he care about monitoring the world. Especially after the siege of Kyoto, Zhang Zhao's position became more and more unstable, and even Wu Guangguang Chuti and others began to deliberately reject him.

Delong was anxious, and he was very opposed to Chuti leading his troops against the enemy. But Wu Guangguang and other important ministers admonished him to death, and Delong had to agree. However, in the face of the chaos in the world, the biggest thorn in Delong's heart is still Duan Lang. Now that Duan Lang's general trend has come to fruition, Delong is very worried about his own life, and sooner or later he will be lost in Duan Lang's hands.

Delong glanced at Zhang Zhao who was standing next to him, "Aiqing, as the head of the Heavenly Prison Academy, I wonder what the situation in the world has been until now?" ”

When Zhang Zhao heard this, he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is very inappropriate to send troops this time. Then Lu Mu Mokun is targeting Duan Lang, so how good it would be for them to kill each other. Our participation is simply a burning move. ”

Delong waved his hand weakly, "The matter has come to this, don't mention the right or wrong of sending troops." What I want to know is, how is that Duan Lang now? ”

"Your Majesty, Duan Lang's traitors have been fighting in Jingshan. The ministers over there were unable to listen to the news, and the two sides must have fought very fiercely. Feng Zhun and Zhu Wenjun were born in the military department, and since they dared to take the initiative to kill the wounded soldiers of Chengyang Mansion, they would definitely do a good job of countermeasures. In addition, the Mokun Lu Mu coalition army is heading towards the Forte of Molan City, and Duan Lang is bound to come to the rescue. The minister still advised, hoping that His Majesty would take back the soldiers and horses that had gone out, and we would make plans after they killed each other. Zhang Zhao said cautiously.

De solemnly snorted, "Lord Xiangguo brought six important ministers to force me, how do you let me refuse." That's fine, after all, the world is my world, and the capitals are unkind to me, and I can't be unjust to them. I also want the world to see that even if my court is weak, I will still send troops to save them from the flames of war. It's Duan Lang, and he must send secret agents to strictly monitor it. My body is getting weaker and weaker, and even if I die, I want to see Duan Lang walk in front of me. Otherwise, I will die without turning a blind eye. ”

When Zhang Zhao heard this, he fell to his knees, "Your Majesty must not say that, Your Majesty's dragon body is just a waste of state affairs, and the minister believes that he will get better after a period of cultivation." As for Duan Lang's traitor, the ministers will definitely monitor it closely. Once there is an opportunity, the minister will not hesitate to send the elite to secretly kill this thief. ”

Delong waved his hand again, "Zhang Zhao, the current Duan Lang is no longer something I can provoke, don't set yourself on fire." What I mean is that to monitor his every move, at a critical time, it is not impossible to send these messages to Mokun Lu Mu. There are some things that are more ingenious to kill people with a knife. I know Duan Lang very well, this person is brave and fearless, but this is also his biggest flaw. As the banner of the capital city, Duan Lang likes to risk his life. I often walk at night, and there is always a time to encounter ghosts. From now on, your Heaven Prison has only one task, and that is to closely monitor Duan Lang's movements. Once he seizes the opportunity, let Mokun Lu Mu send him on his way. ”

Zhang Zhao's heart moved, and he bowed down and said, "Your Majesty's plan is very clever, if Duan Lang dies at the hands of Mokun Lu Mu, Tantai Mingyue and the others will definitely fight to avenge him." When the time comes, the two sides will not die, and no matter which side wins, there will be few soldiers and horses left. ”

"That being said, it's a very hard opportunity to find. However, I believe that Duan Lang, who is adventurous, will definitely risk his life in the battle of Melan City and other places. Over the years, Duan Lang of Changlin Canyon in Wuliang City risked his life to rescue, and Duan Lang in the battle of Jiashan Pass was also a cavalryman. Even later, before the Battle of Lidu City, Duan Lang still led a small number of soldiers and horses to intersperse behind enemy lines. These experiences may seem surprisingly successful, but they are also fraught with danger. At that time, Duan Lang was not enough to shake the pattern of the world, so his tricks could work. Now it's different, Duan Lang has become a figure who can change the pattern of the world, no matter how much he dares to take risks, I believe that Mokun Lu Mu would rather lose more than half of his troops and put him to death. ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers will spread out their men and horses and closely monitor Duan Lang's every move. Now Mokun and Lu Mu have joined forces to send troops to Molan City, and the ministers have sent thousands of secret agents from the Prison Heaven Courtyard to this place. With such a tight control, I believe that there will always be opportunities. In addition, Duan Lang recruited a wide range of soldiers, and the minister's government detectives could also penetrate them. Don't seek a day's work, but seek a long-term plan. ”

Delong nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, Aiqing can understand my intentions, and I am very pleased. Don't make a fuss about it, and the people you send must be loyal and reliable. ”

"Your Majesty rest assured, the minister understands."

Zhang Zhao knew that Delong was afraid that he would be sick afterwards, and even caused death. You must know that the current Duan family army is not something that Kyoto can contend with, once you know that Duan Lang is damaged because of what they did secretly, this feud will be great.

At this time of strife in the world, Duan Lang didn't expect that Delong still had such a big hatred for him in his heart. However, at this time, Duan Lang didn't have time to think about Delong, because the battle of Jingshan was about to break the city, and Duan Lang wanted to slash Feng Zhun and Zhu Wenjun to avenge the dead brother in Chengyang Mansion.

In Jingshan City, Feng Zhun's hair was gray and his eyes were red. Zhu Wenjun was even more full of vicissitudes of life and beard, and was directing the guards to make the last resistance. Seeing that the resistance in the city could not be held on, Feng Zhun was ruthless in his heart and ordered someone to bring the old, young, women and children in the city to the top of the city. He wanted to see if Duan Lang dared to continue attacking the city at the risk of being scolded by the world.

Outside the city, Duan Lang and Yutai Mingyue didn't expect Feng Zhun to use such a bad method. Facing those crying women, children, old and young, Duan Lang had to order a temporary halt to the attack.

The city wall had been dyed red with blood, and seeing that Duan Lang's army had stopped attacking, Feng Zhun stood on top of the city and shouted with a hideous face.

"Duan Lang, your soldiers and horses have been consumed a lot, why don't you and I just stop? If you continue to fight, even if you can take Jingshan City, will you still have the ability to fight against foreign enemies? ”

Duan Lang walked forward more than a dozen feet on his horse, and said angrily, "Stop? Feng Zhun Lao'er, listen, if you don't cut off your head, I, Duan Lang, am not only sorry for the dead brother in Chengyang Mansion, but also sorry for what you did. You also served as a member of the court and the central government of the Great Xia important minister, and you actually pushed the women, children, and children in the city to the city. Feng Zhun, aren't you afraid of thunder and thunder. ”

"Humph! Life and death are great, and everything can be changed. As long as you are willing to withdraw from the army, we can discuss anything. Don't forget that the Nanping and Western Vietnamese armies are still there, and they are your opponents. Feng Zhun shouted.

Duan Lang raised his sword and pointed at Feng Zhun, "Even Mokun Lu Mu can't do such a thing that people and gods are angry about." If you want me to retire from the army, don't think about it! ”

"Humph! Then come, there are all the people of the city to accompany us to the funeral, and death is worth it. Feng Zhun shouted with his reddened eyes.

Zhang Ruming also scolded angrily, and he couldn't wait to greet all the eighteen generations of Feng Zhun's ancestors. Duan Lang gritted his teeth and glanced back at Mingyue on the handsome car. The city is about to be broken, but in the face of these old and young women and children, Duan Lang really can't give up his heart.

Tantai Mingyue's face was like a cold moon, and when she saw Duan Lang's gaze, Tantai Mingyue nodded firmly.

"Lang, this city must be taken. Letting people like Feng Zhun live in the world is simply an injustice to the world. Azhu, send a signal to the city. In this case, they should know how to do it. ”

"No!"

Ah Zhu agreed, and took out a bamboo tube tied to the line of fire. A bell arrow shot into the air, and the bamboo tube exploded, bursting into brilliant sparks.

In Jingshan City, those scouts and shadows hidden among the people saw Ah Zhu's signal and immediately began to encourage the people to take up arms to defend their parents, sisters and even children.

Since Jingshan City was occupied by Feng Zhun's army, the people in the city dared not speak out in the face of powerful soldiers and horses. These days of siege battles have made the people even more frightened. They didn't know if Duan Jiajun would become a beast that drove away hungry wolves after entering the city.

People watched uneasily, but Feng Zhun's actions today were like the last straw that crushed the camel. The agitation of the scouts immediately ignited the anger of the people in the city. People picked up knives, axes, sticks, and rushed angrily to the guards in order to protect their loved ones.

The angry people snowballed together. They slew the soldiers who defended the city, and under the leadership of the Scouts, they began to run towards the city. In Jingshan City, a shadow artist lit the wolf smoke he brought with him.

Seeing the wolf smoke rising, Ah Zhu hurriedly said, "Mingyue Military Division, the people in the city have an incident. ”

"Good! The two generals Wang Fu and Zhang Qifeng immediately attacked Jingshan City to avoid hurting the people in the city as much as possible. ”

Wang Fuzhong Zhang Qifeng agreed, and just about to implement it, Duan Lang shouted, "Wait." ”

Everyone was stunned, and Duan Lang said, "Shout to the city first, as long as the guards are willing to put down their weapons or defect, the commander will take their lives." ”

Wang Fu clenched his fists and said, "Duan Shuai, don't forget that they are all executioners who killed the brothers of Chengyang Mansion, and they can't be let go." Otherwise, the unjust souls of the brothers of Chengyang Mansion will not agree. ”

Zhang Qifeng also said, "Yes, at the beginning of the war, we said that we would not let go of anyone. ”

"At this time and that time, we can't watch those old and young women and children become sacrifices in the flames of war. Presumably, Geng Zhishan and the other brothers' spirits in the sky did not want to see this scene. If innocent people are injured because of the attack, what is the difference between us and Feng Zhun. ”

Wang Fuzhong sighed, "Okay, follow Duan Shuai's order." ”

Zhang Ruming shouted, "I'm coming!" ”

Zhang Ruming said and ran to the guards under the city, and shouted loudly under the protection of everyone.

"Listen to the guards in the city, originally you people were people with unforgivable sins, but this heavenly master is in the will of the gods, and he can't bear to see the lives of the old and young women and children in the city. If anyone takes down Feng Zhun and Zhu Wenjun, the two thieves, this heavenly master promises to spare your lives. If you can protect the safety of the people, this Heavenly Master will not be responsible for the mistakes you have made in the past. ”

Above the city, Zhu Wenjun's face changed, and he hurriedly shouted, "Shoot~ Shoot this dead fat man." ”

The few arrows shot down, Zhu Wenjun was stunned for a moment, and said badly, "The law enforcement team listens to the order, whoever dares to surrender to the enemy will be killed." ”

On the top of the city, many guards wiped their sweat with blood stains, and their eyes showed a confused look. Suddenly, a standard officer shouted.

"Brothers, let's stop doing it, let the foreign enemy not resist, but harm our own people. Brothers, take refuge in the Duan family army and kill Feng Zhun and Zhu Wenjun~! ”

"Shut up, law enforcement team, kill this man." Feng Zhun shouted.

Above the city, the ruler began to rebel with his men. With the lead, more guards raised their weapons one after another, but they did not aim at the outside of the city, but rushed towards Zhu Wenjun's law enforcement team.

"Order, siege!" Yutai Mingyue seized the opportunity and immediately asked the herald to blow the order for a general attack.

For a time, there was chaos in the city, and the people in the city rushed over at the risk of death. Zhu Wenjun's mind was clouded, and he shook and almost didn't stand firm. Feng Zhun's eyes also revealed the fear before death.

The ladder outside the city was pushed to the bottom of the city, and this time, there were not many people left to resist, and the guards quickly rushed to the top of the city. Feng Zhun and Zhu Wenjun knew that the general trend had gone, originally Duan Lang wanted to kill all the soldiers and horses in the city to avenge Geng Zhishan and others, but now they are amnesty for everyone, who is willing to work hard for Feng Zhun and Zhu Wenjun.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer guards to protect him, Zhu Wenjun shouted angrily and committed suicide with a knife. Feng Zhun also sighed helplessly, turned around and jumped off the city. The two of them knew what the result would be after being captured, so they had no choice but to choose this step.

At the last moment, the guards of Jingshan City defected one after another, and Wang Fuzhong and Zhang Qifeng opened the city gate. The Battle of Jingshan finally came to an end. After more than ten days of offensive and defensive battles, the losses of Duan Lang's army were not small. However, after this battle, the entire eastern cities of Great Xia were stabilized. The war is accompanied by sacrifices, and it can make the eastern cities stable for a long time, and such war losses are worth it.

The Battle of Jingshan is coming to an end, and Duan Lang and the others still have to deal with some aftermath. Especially the corpses of Feng Zhun and Zhu Wenjun, they want to take them back to Chengyang Mansion to pay tribute to their dead brothers.

At this time, in Melan City, it was in a panic. Governor Jiang Zhuming called on the people in the city to start evacuating to the nearby Mibo Mountain. The evacuation of the personnel took a lot of time, and more importantly, the grain, grass, gold and silver were soft, and under the escort of Han Feng and others, they were transported to the nearby mountains and forests to be buried and hidden. Not only that, Han Feng also took the shadow artist to carry out a big cleanup of the city. But if there is a suspicious person, Han Feng can only be ruthless and ruthless. Even if he kills by mistake, he doesn't dare to let go of a suspicious person. Because after entering the mountains and forests, there must be no moles. In case the outside merges, it will be a huge disaster for the people of Melan City. Even if it can't be completely cleaned, Hanfeng should minimize this risk.

The originally rich and stable city of Melan is about to become a place of war. Although the people were reluctant to leave their homes, they had no choice but to leave after learning that the Western Vietnamese army had burned and plundered other cities. After discussion and investigation, Jiang Zhuming, Han Feng and others chose the cliff and dangerous place of Mibo Mountain. As Xiangtai Mingyue said, no matter which city and county capital the people fled to, they couldn't outrun the cavalry of the Mokun Lu Mu coalition army. Only by entering the dangerous roads in the mountains and forests may be able to protect yourself. Not only Molan City, but also other surrounding cities are also choosing various dangerous places to hide.

A few days later, the scouts came with the news that the forward troops and horses of the Western and Vietnamese coalition forces in Nanping still had half a day to arrive. On the top of the city, Jiang Zhuming took one last look at Molan City, which had been in charge for many years, and reluctantly walked down the city. Pang Gang and Fan Cheng were all waiting under the city, they were the last to evacuate.

Pang Gang looked at Han Feng, "Old Han, are you sure you won't leave?" ”

Han Feng hugged his fists at everyone, "There are already my people in the mountains, and they will notify them if there is any news." I have to put eyeliner around Melan City, and I can't follow you into the mountains. Huge man, Lord Fan, take care. ”

Fan Cheng arched his hand and said, "Old Han, you also take care." After Duan Lang's kid comes, let's get together again. ”

Han Feng nodded, but his eyes looked at a general beside Jiang Zhuming. If Duan Lang and Yutai Mingyue were here, they would definitely be surprised. Because this person is actually Chen Zhanxuan, who was cleaned up by them in Lidu City. Melan City is Chen Zhanxuan's hometown, and after being driven out of the capital, Chen Zhanxuan did not take refuge in the court, but returned to his hometown.

Han Feng said solemnly, "Zhan Xuan, the old and young of Molan City will be handed over to you." If you can keep the main road into the mountain, my old Han will ask for credit for you. ”

"Seventh Uncle, I, Chen Zhanxuan, am a sinner in Lidu City, thanks to Lord Jiang's refusal to abandon me, and reuse me. Seventh Uncle rest assured, as long as I, Chen Zhanxuan, am still alive, I will never let my foreign cowards trample on my hometown. ”

"Okay, your kid used to be a general in Lidu City, don't lose your prestige. Even if all the 5,000 men and horses were killed, they would hold out until the arrival of the army. After this battle, I, Han Feng, promise you to relist the list of generals in the capital city. ”

"The last general will not be dishonored!" Chen Zhanxuan said excitedly.

Han Feng nodded and waved goodbye to everyone. He can't enter the mountain, Han Feng has to act as the eyes and ears for Duan Lang's arrival, and he must master the deployment and dispatch of the Mokun Lu Mu coalition army. For this reason, Han Feng decided to take the risk of hiding in the city until Duan Lang's army came to kill him.
