After four or five miles of walking, the group came to a huge village. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

At this time, the whole village was in flames, illuminating the snowy night as if it were day.

It's not a good idea to say it's a village, because it's built entirely for a licensed military castle. The whole castle is made of earth and stone, there is a moat in front of the fort to protect it, like a small military town, above the city gate, there is a huge plaque, on which the three big characters of "Zhongyi City" are written.

The moat drawbridge has been lowered, and the gates are wide open.

A few hundred meters away from the castle, dozens of people lined up, as if they had been waiting for a long time.

"Datang Qin Feng has seen all national heroes and national warriors!" Qin Feng walked up quickly, one step ahead of others, and bowed to the ground.

"I can't help it, the general has tormented a certain family."

A big man stepped out, he avoided Qin Feng's big gift, and respectfully returned the salute, this person's burly body was as steady as Mount Tai, his eyes were like gods, and he was not angry but mighty.

He is Qiu Man's father, the Sui military captain formerly known as Chu Huaizhong, Chu Huaizhong is fifty years old this year and enlisted in the army at the age of sixteen. Years of battlefield battles have made him a man of steel, and he is deeply respected and loved by the people of the city because of his integrity and kindness to everyone who is left behind.

Although it was the first time they met each other, they were no strangers, and during this time, they have been exchanging letters for a long time, and they have been famous for each other.

"Why not? You are the heroes of the nation, everyone sacrificed most of their lives for the cause of the nation, if it were not for the hatred of the barbarian brothers to find Chang'an, the heroes will die with the grass and trees, no one will know that in the depths of the mountains, there is a group of heroes loyal to the nation, guarding the loyalty in their hearts. As a high-level official of the Central Plains Dynasty and a concubine of the royal family, I, Qin Feng, on behalf of the royal family and the people living in the Central Plains, salute the heroes, you have worked hard! At the same time, I also apologize to everyone, I, Qin Feng, am late. ”

Seeing Qin Feng perform nine great salutes in a row, since Chu Huaizhong, everyone's eyes moistened, as if the desperate fight with the Goguryeo soldiers came to mind......

The flag is unfurled, the corpses are piled up like a mountain, the blood flows like a river, and the mountain flies across the mountain...... This is the fierce heroic spirit of this persevering army!

Chu Huaizhong wiped a handful of heroic tears and said loudly in a trembling voice: "Brothers, do you see it?" Our loved ones came. The king we have been looking forward to is here, you can look at it. ”

On the city wall, I saw countless remnants standing there, old and young, men and women, all with surprises and some disbelief on their faces.

For the first time in decades, they met their relatives in the Central Plains and their compatriots for the first time. And the arrival of this great general also indicates that they have the hope of returning to their homeland, although some people have never set foot on their homeland, after all, it is the homeland of their ancestors!

"General, please!" After a long time, the iron-like man, holding Qin Feng's hand, stepped on the suspension bridge together, and entered the castle with firm steps.

"Long live Huaxia!" Suddenly, these remnants roared in unison.

The voice is majestic, heroic, and soars into the sky!

"Long live Huaxia!" Four words, echoing in the night sky for a long time.

Castle Lord's Mansion! Wangnan Building,

The guest and the host sat down, and in order to welcome Qin Feng, the general, Zhongyi City held a banquet, and the leading figures in Zhongyi City attended to accompany him.

"The general worked tirelessly, coming from Chang'an and Youzhou, which are thousands of miles away, really, really touching Chu." Although the entourage sent back by Qiu Man said that Qin Feng, a man of the hour, would personally visit him, Chu Huaizhong and the others were still suspicious, and they were born in the last years of the Sui Dynasty, when traitors were in power, and they did not think that a high-ranking and noble-born governor, general, and concubine would risk their lives to go deep into the tiger's den. However, when Qin Feng really appeared in front of them, they knew that this nascent dynasty was very different from the dynasty they lived in, "Chu Mou respects the general with a cup, please!" ”

"Please!" Qin Feng raised his cup and drank it all.

"Refreshing!" Chu Huaizhong and others praised with their fingers.

After three rounds of drinking, the sluice gate was also opened.

Because Qin Feng's origin has been almost introduced, Chu Huaizhong also roughly introduced their situation: there is not much difference from what Qiu Man said, they are all refugees left over from Yang Guangsan's expedition to Goguryeo, and they are all Yanhuang bloodlines lurking in a foreign land who were born and raised but could not return to China.

In order to survive, they gathered together and formed a self-reliant group tribe, commensurate with their clans, like a family, overcoming the harsh environment and surviving tenaciously. It's just that Goguryeo hates the Central Plains, and regards them as a thorn in the flesh, constantly squeezing and suppressing them. In the end, they were forced to go to the most sinister and vast Taibai Mountain.

With the help of the topography of Taibai Mountain, under the leadership of the leader Chu Huaizhong, Goguryeo, who intended to go to Taibai Mountain and kill them completely, repeatedly intercepted Goguryeo, and gained a firm foothold in Taibai Mountain. Self-reliance and self-reliance have survived and continued to grow, including nearly 30,000 men, women and children.

Qin Feng listened to the toast again and again, how did he overcome all difficulties and survive, Chu Huaizhong did not say, but it can be imagined that it must be full of hardships and hardships, and it took the baptism of blood and tears to get to this point.

Chu Huaizhong remembered the past, and he also sighed for a long time.

During the banquet, they also asked about the situation in the Central Plains, which was a long time away from their hometown and homeland, and it was all false to say that they were not worried.

Qin Feng talked about the situation in the Central Plains as everyone wished, and he started with Yang Guang's three expeditions to Goguryeo: Compared with telling historical stories, there is no one in the world who is more qualified than him.

The expressions of Chu Huaizhong and the others changed with the ups and downs of the story, as if they were in it.

Especially when it comes to the battle of Tiger Prison, Li Tang's situation is critical, with Wang Shichong's army in front of him and Dou Jiande's army pressing the border, he is even more anxious and his breathing is short. He is a native of Guanzhong, and his personal emotions also tend to be Guanzhong Li Tang.

But when he heard that in the end, Li Shimin, the king of Qin, turned the tide and defeated the 100,000 Dou Xia army with 3,500 soldiers, he couldn't help but cheer.

Later, he was angry at the rampant Turks, and rejoiced that he could break the Turks, and listened to them with relish. When Qin Feng talked about Datang's policies and the recent series of anti-corruption campaigns, everyone was very happy, and they had a yearning for the Central Plains world. After all, relatively speaking, Taibai Mountain is too small.

After the meal, Qin Feng, Xuan Bing, and several main figures of Zhongyi City gathered in the secret room to discuss matters. Originally, Chu Huaizhong asked Qin Feng to rest for one night and discuss it tomorrow, but Qin Feng resolutely disagreed, and everyone sighed at Qin Feng's resolute style, so they obeyed his wishes.

"Although Datang can't raise troops immediately, His Majesty cares about Zhongyi City very much, and he also misses everyone very much. He was worried about what would happen to Zhongyi City, so he personally ordered me to transfer me from the position of the secretary of the ministry to the chief of Youzhou, and was in charge of Goguryeo and your affairs. The reason why I am here is because of two missions: first, to worship the heroic souls on behalf of His Majesty; Second, discuss the plan with you; Third, he turned Goguryeo upside down by unconventional means. ”

Chu Huaizhong said deeply: "Your Majesty and the general's great grace, we will remember it in our hearts. Turning Goguryeo upside down is exactly what we have been looking forward to, but we also have some concerns. ”

"Old and weak women and children?" Qin Feng asked.

Chu Huaizhong said: "We are almost family members, and the reason why we have not acted for a long time is not because we are afraid of death, but because we are dragged by our families." In this regard, does His Majesty the Tang Dynasty have any instructions? ”

"Your Majesty understands General Chu's concerns very well, which is why he transferred me to Youzhou!" Qin Feng coughed lightly and said: "To tell you nothing, Qin has deployed 80,000 soldiers on the border, firstly, to deter Goguryeo, and secondly, to receive your family members. Nowadays, Goguryeo is divided into two, the north is controlled by the weak Rongliu King Gao Jianwu, although Gao Jianwu has achieved a certain victory, but the strength is far less than the Yuan clan in the south, in order to confront the Yuan clan to the end, he is seeking the support of my Tang Dynasty, and my Tang Majesty has issued two conditions, first, to demolish the Jingguan; The second is to open a safe passage and let you enter Youzhou victoriously. Gao Jianwu was afraid that Datang and the Yuan clan would jointly exterminate him, and at present, he had agreed to the second condition, so he could rest assured that his family members would be relieved. As for the demolition of the Kyoto Temple? In order to appease the hearts of the soldiers, Gao Jianwu did not reply for a long time, but the consensus between His Majesty and me was: do it yourself. ”

"Do it yourself?"

"How the heroes came, we have to use how to welcome back the loyal bones. Only by killing Goguryeo to the point that the blood is flowing like a river and the corpses are piling up like a mountain, can the heroic spirits under the Nine Springs rest in peace. Hmph, let the Goguryeo people dismantle? Am I no one in China? Sneaky has a fart meaning. Qin Feng's suppressed brave blood was all released, as if he had changed into a different person, the whole person was arrogant and domineering, his eyes were empty, and the soldiers of Goguryeo were like a group of local chickens and dogs in his heart.

He is not very old, but he is already a general who commands 100,000 soldiers and horses, and in the past two years of military career, after all these years of birth and death, he has led the troops and led the generals, cultivated a kind of leader's bearing, and can bend people without a fight. The words came out to Jean with an irresistible thought.

Everyone was moved at this moment.

"That's right, that's what makes sense."

The young generation led by Qiu Man, under the stimulation of Qin Feng, had red eyes one by one,

With their mouths open, their eyes staring, their expressions distorted, and their blood boiling with excitement.

This good man has no martial arts, ten years of cold windows, ten years of blood and sweat, and everything he asks for is not just to let the blood of the enemy wash away the hatred and shame of his predecessors.

Chu Huaizhong also remembered that more than 20 years ago, when they joined the army, the pride and ambition to work for the common people, one by one they were also excited with crimson, tears flowing, and their hearts could not be calmed like turning over the river and the sea.
