A group of knights on the official road, about 600 people, came out of Tokyo and went straight north, except for the iron armor and blades on their bodies, but they did not bring anything, that is, no food.

Gai Yi obviously didn't dare to stay in Tokyo for long, the walls of Tokyo are tall, the river outside the city is wide, and there are thousands of soldiers in the city, so he can't stay for a long time.

The fast horse galloped for dozens of miles, and Gai Yi only took a short rest, drank some water by a stream, and set off north.

In the city of Tokyo, there were 3,000 people and horses, but they had just set off to chase them, and there were more than a dozen horsemen galloping on the official road, carrying letters to Gyeonggi Fengqiu and Jingbei Huazhou and other places, just to contain the thieves.

Gai Yi's road ahead, in fact, is not far, Luda has already arrived at Yingyang City, the military mansion of Amway, this is only two or three hundred miles, but there is a wide Yellow River waterway in front of him. It is not so easy to cross the river with hundreds of people and horses.

The encirclement of other cities and prefectures is not a problem, it will not come so quickly, but it is the three thousand Tokyo forbidden troops behind this that are the threat. It's not the difficulty of the fight, but the time that can't afford to drag on. If it is really delayed, the forbidden army of Fengqiu City on the other side of the river will guard the river, and the Yellow River will become a moat.

Gai Yi understood this, so he had no choice but to pat the horse's back harder to gain more time to cross the river. It is also necessary to compete with the heralds in Tokyo for time, and try to cross the river before Fengqiu receives the news.

As long as the Yellow River is crossed, there will be no one who can stop the six hundred knights of the Western Army.

Li Bangyan directly entered the palace again, and after this incident, everyone in Tokyo was talking about the rebellion of the military and the Han Dynasty, and the fighting on the streets of the inner city and the horses and chases on the streets of the outer city were talking about the matter.

Many of the officials in the major yamen were also seen with their own eyes in the inner city. Even if this matter is already a big problem, Li Bangyan can't be allowed to play in front of Zhao Huan.

But it was Li Bangyan who entered the palace and first found a eunuch to do a thing before going to see Zhao Huan. He hurriedly moved the corpse of the Seed Master Dao out of Zhao Ji and carried it outside the palace to wait for someone to collect the body. Originally, Li Bangyan said that he would let it go for a day, but when he encountered this kind of thing, he couldn't let it go for a day, so he had to carry it out quickly.

Goodbye Emperor Zhao Huan, but not in that imperial study, I want to come to the master road and die in the imperial study, Zhao Huan probably will not go to the imperial study in the future, such a dead person, Zhao Huan is probably the first time to see it, maybe there will be a few nightmares at night.

Emperor Zhao Huan was in front of him, and Li Bangyan also said something in 1510.

I only heard Zhao Huan say gloomily: "This kind of teacher's way, if you die, you will die, but you can still do something that makes trouble." This old thief, I'm afraid that he will secretly communicate with Zheng Zhi, and he will be two-faced and three-faced. Fortunately, he died, and if the army was handed over to him, the consequences would be unimaginable. ”

The seed master in Zhao Huan's mouth has become an old thief.

When Li Bangyan heard this, although he didn't think that this kind of teacher was an old thief, he didn't say much, and continued: "Your Majesty, this time the master is dead, and this matter of taking charge of the army in Tokyo should be found again, and this matter cannot be delayed." ”

Zhao Huan heard Li Bangyan's reminder, so he suddenly thought of this section, and nodded again and again: "Yes, it is extreme, you need to quickly find a good general in a hundred battles to train and suppress thieves." How about a discount? ”

is related to Zhao Huan's own safety, Zhao Huan is naturally nervous.

Li Bangyan shook his head when he heard this, and said, "Your Majesty, you can't ask for it." The thief of Huaixi is extremely powerful. Zhe Keqiu personally led the troops to fight in Huaixi, and only then did he suppress the anti-thief trend, but it was also difficult. If you can ask to enter Beijing at this time, I am afraid that this war will be repeated. It is more appropriate to stay in Huaixi to suppress thieves. ”

When Zhao Huan heard this, he hurriedly said: "It's impossible to ask for it, so who else?" In the front of the palace and the Privy Council, can there be a general who leads the army? ”

Li Bangyan also shook his head when he heard this, in these two yamen, where are there any generals who lead the troops, they are just a group of civilian officials who are in charge of the military salary, let these people lead the troops to fight, it is better for Li Bangyan to go on it himself, so that he at least knows when he has to run.

"Your Majesty, there are many civil officials in the front division of the palace and the Privy Council, and they are not connected to the battle array, even if it is a military attache under the front division of the palace, most of them are those who fled before, which is really useless." Li Bangyan replied.

When Zhao Huan heard this, he no longer asked, but frowned and thought about it, and he also took the initiative to think about it, thinking about the solution to this matter.

Li Bangyan was also thinking, racking his brains to think about it, and said while thinking: "Your Majesty, the northwest has been fighting with the party for so many years, and there are many capable generals who can plan candidates in the western army. ”

Zhao Huan said: "The generals of the northwest, the family of the planters, and the Liu family." Don't talk about the family, you can ask for it in Huaixi, the Liu family seems to have a young junior, and it is not suitable to be too young. Who else? ”

Li Bangyan heard Zhao Huan count them one by one, and suddenly remembered a person in his heart, this person's name often appeared in the recital of asking for merit, and appeared together with the recital of the Yan'an breeder, and it was also surnamed Liu, so he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the minister remembered a person, it turned out that he fought with the family on the Yongxing Military Road, this person's name is Liu Yanqing, and he also fought with the party, and there are also some elite soldiers under his command. This time, the western army went south to suppress the thieves, leaving this person alone on the Yongxing Military Road. Liu Yanqing can be recruited to take charge of the army now. ”

"Liu Yanqing?" Zhao Huan repeated the name with doubts, thought about it, seemed to feel a little familiar, and asked, "How many elite soldiers of the Western Army are under the command of this person?" ”

Zhao Huan is a prince, and he is usually not liked by Zhao Ji, so he rarely participates in some national affairs, so he is not familiar with many people and things. Li Bangyan launched a candidate, and Zhao Huan didn't ask anything else, just asked how many soldiers and horses Liu Yanqing had.

"I think there are always about 20,000 elites of the Western Army under his command, and he has fought against the Western Xia many times before the head, so I think there will be no soldiers and horses. And the soldiers and horses who fought with the Western Xia must be elite. Zheng Zhi is just a soldier from the Western Army. Li Bangyan actually didn't know how many soldiers and horses Liu Yanqing had under his command, so he also guessed that talking about it would also give Zhao Huan a strong momentum.

Under Liu Yanqing, if there can be three or five thousand people, it will also be up to the sky. Now there is no food and salary support in the northwest, but I am afraid that Liu Yanqing may not even have three or five thousand people.

Zhao Huan was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Okay, quickly recruit him to Beijing to take charge of the army, and be promoted to the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, there are still 100,000 marches in Tokyo waiting for drills, so that he must not be delayed, and he will enter Beijing immediately." It doesn't hurt that the army will come later. ”

When Li Bangyan heard this, he smiled, and he was happy that he had solved some national affairs in front of Zhao Huan again. This Liu Yanqing was recommended by himself, and if Liu Yanqing entered Beijing, he would inevitably return the favor. In this way, Li Bangyan's power is even greater.

"Your Majesty, the minister will draw up an order, and send it to Yongxing Military Road quickly, back and forth for more than a month, and Liu Yanqing should arrive if you think about it." Li Bangyan was also anxious to settle things in order to prevent recurrence.

Zhao Huan nodded, Li Bangyan rushed out of the door, and went to do it.

Liu Yanqing was supposed to lead his troops to attack Liao, but he was defeated, but this errand was replaced by Zheng Zhi. Now he is still on the real historical stage and has entered Beijing to take charge of the army. This Great Song Dynasty has also reached the point where no one is available.

Gai Yi with 600 horsemen had already rushed to the bank of the Yellow River, and the soldiers and men searched everywhere for large and small boats, seizing all the time to cross the river.

The three thousand chasing soldiers behind him were not seen for a long time, until Gai Yi was the last to cross the Yellow River, and none of the three thousand Tokyo soldiers appeared in sight.

It was Gai Yi who was nervous in his heart, but it was also Gai Yi who looked up to these soldiers in Tokyo a little higher, because Gai Yi fought in the inner city in front of his head, and he really felt that there were still a few people in the Tokyo army who were not bad at their means, and there were also a few people who dared to fight. I can't help but think highly of the Tokyo Forbidden Army.

But it was the imperial city guards under those palace commanders who could not represent the entire Tokyo Forbidden Army.

All the way, no one stopped me when I passed through Fengqiu, and no one stopped me when I passed through Huazhou. Gai Yi even forcibly "owed" several rations on credit in the roadside town.

In Fengqiu City, it was not without receiving orders, and the fast horses of the Tokyo herald were faster than the feet of the men and horses crossing the river in the 600th. But the gate of this Fengqiu City was closed, and he watched Gai Yi beat his horse and bypassed outside Fengqiu City.

The chief officer said: The thief is a cavalry, and he can't catch up.

flew all the way, and the next afternoon, Gai Yi had already arrived at Yingyang City.

I saw the horn on the head of the city, countless soldiers rushed to the city, the bed crossbow winch creaked, and the huge feather arrows had been wound. There were also all kinds of things that defended the city to move to the city.

Ruda had already gone up to the city, and the enemy was attacking.

Gai Yi, who had not slept for a day and a night, was also shocked when he saw this action in the city. Hurriedly turned his head and shouted: "Look quickly, do you have a military flag?" ”

Eager to come out, where can anyone take care of the military flag.

Gai Yi turned his head and went into the village outside the city, found a few futons, dismantled them, took pen and ink, wrote a big character on the futon, and hung them on the long pole.

So dare to approach the city. I was afraid that I would be accidentally injured by the feather arrows on the city.

Ruda could see the flag erected by the group of knights, and there was a crooked big word "species" written on it!

Luda was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly spoke: "Pass the order, and loosen the tight bed crossbow... The kind of prince is coming! ”

Luda thought that the master was coming, and went down to the city gate, with two hundred cavalry on the left and right, the city gate was wide open, and he had already gone out to greet him. Ruda is also a high and courageous artist, and the hundreds of cavalry outside the city do not pay attention to it, and they do not suspect any conspiracy.

What's more important is that Luda has too much respect for the planter, Luda is a righteous man, and the farmer's kindness to Luda is willing to work hard.

Ruda had already galloped out.

Gai Yi saw that a small team of men and horses were rushing out of the city, so he relieved himself and took one hundred and ten horsemen to meet him, leaving more than five hundred horsemen to wait, for fear of causing unnecessary misunderstandings. Because Gai Yi didn't know who came out of the city.

Before getting close, Gai Yi recognized Luda first, and before the horse stopped, he had already jumped down, knelt on one knee, and shouted in his mouth: "Uncle!" ”

Luda stopped the horse, looked at it a few times, and recognized Gai Yi, got off the horse and stepped forward to help, laughed and asked, "Haha... You've grown up, and you're no longer a little shorter than the Sprinkler family. Get up! ”

Luda helped Gai Yi up, and also looked left and right a few times, but he didn't see the seed master, and asked, "What about the seed minister?" But in the back of the line? ”

It was Luda who asked in his words, Gai Yi had already shed tears, all the way to the dust, just running, worried that he would not be able to run away if he was intercepted, and he didn't have time to think about the things of the teacher. It was only at this time that Gai Yi thought of the Dao of the Planter, and he was only sad.

The Dao of the Seed Master is the flag of the Western Army, and it is also the soul of the soldiers under the command of the Seed Family. No matter how many generations go down, the breeder is the soul of these soldiers.

Now the soul is gone ... Maybe Zheng Zhi will replace this role in the future, but it can't erase the status of the seed family in the hearts of these Northwest men.

Seeing that Gai Yi was crying, Luda already felt that the big thing was not good, and asked again: "What about the father-in-law?" ”

I heard Gai Yi say: "The prime minister was killed in Tokyo!" Uncle Shi, you have to avenge the Prime Minister! ”

"What ???" Ruda's eyes widened when he heard this, and he couldn't believe it.

I heard Gai Yi say again: "The prince is dead... was killed by the dog thief Li Bangyan, and we were almost intercepted and killed by that Li Bangyan. ”

When Luda heard this, he let out a low roar, swayed his footsteps from side to side a few times, reached out and touched the bun on his head, and even raised his hand to hit, hitting Gai Yi in the face, and hitting Gai Yi a few steps down.

I heard Luda scold: "You useless dog, since you are in Tokyo, under the account of the Prime Minister, why did you ask the Prime Minister to kill people, are you greedy for life and afraid of death, ah???? Is it that you are greedy for life and afraid of death, and you have not saved the justice! Are you greedy for life and afraid of death??? ”

Gai Yi fell to the ground, but he knelt down on one knee again, crying non-stop, and only said: "It's me, it's all my fault... It's all to blame for my greed for life and fear of death, it's all blame for not going into the palace with the prime minister, it's all blamed for me just running for my life and not killing that Li Bangyan, I deserve to die, I deserve to die!! ”

Gai Yi cried as he buried his head in the ground, his fists constantly smashing on the ground. In front of his head, Gai Yi didn't feel how much fault he was for the death of the Seed Master Dao, but it was Luda's words, Gai Yi was full of self-blame in his heart, blaming himself for not protecting the Seed Master Dao, and also blaming himself for only running for his life, and not working hard with Li Bangyan to avenge the Seed Master Dao.

But the people present didn't know that the Seed Master Dao was looking for his own death, and even Gai Yi thought that the Seed Master Dao was killed by someone.

When Luda heard this, he understood a little, pointed to Gai Yi on the ground and scolded: "Let's see what face you have to see your father under Jiuquan after you die." Useless dog stuff. ”

It was this sentence that made Gai Yi feel even more shameless. Running out of the city, more than a dozen close brothers were lost in the city, but he ran out like a lost dog, and he felt even more shameless to live in the world.

After speaking, Luda had already turned around and got on the horse, and when he looked back, he saw that Gai Yi was still on the ground, and shouted: "Don't be coy here, don't get on the horse yet." If the Sprinkle family wants to kill Tokyo, you should die in front of the battle! ”

Ruda couldn't control it anymore, his eyes were bloody, his face was bearded, he was already angry, and killing people was not enough to relieve his hatred.

Gai Yi's body was shocked when he heard this, and he seemed to feel that he had some strength in his body, so he got up and said: "Uncle Shi is right, I will die in front of the battle, and it is worth killing that Li Bangyan before I die." ”

After speaking, Gai Yi wiped his tears, pinched the handle of the knife, and crawled off the horse. But he couldn't raise his head, just pinched the handle of the knife and creaked.

Looking at Ruda in front of his head, his eyes looked around like a wild beast, and he was even ordering his own soldiers to enter the city and beat drums. The breath coming in and out of the mouth and nose can be smelled muffled!

The seed master Dao was murdered, how can Luda accept it!
