At dawn, a cold wind suddenly swept up frantically, wreaking havoc between the market houses in Taiyuan City, like a terrible ghost cry.

The sky was snowing again.

Suddenly, a loud sound like thunder rumbled, from far and near, making the whole city seem to tremble!

Chu Tianya, who was asleep, was suddenly awakened, and Dou Ran sat up and got out of bed with his clothes on. When the door was opened, the lights in several other rooms were also turned on, and He Bo, Xiao Linglong, Xiao Ai, and Ada Anu were all awakened and walked out one after another.

"What's going on?"

Everyone was amazed.

At this time, the rumbling sound became clearer and clearer, like earth-shattering thunder tumbling from far and near. The clouds and snowflakes in the sky seemed to be frightened, and began to scatter and flee in panic.

"It's the war drums of the Jurchens." I don't know if it was because of the cold when she first got up, or if this terrifying voice woke up to those nightmares buried deep in Xiao Linglong's heart, she was tense and her face was pale, and her voice was a little trembling.

Chu Tianya walked up to her and looked at her worriedly, "Are you okay?" You have a terrible complexion! ”

"I ...... I'm fine! Xiao Linglong's face was unprecedentedly nervous and confused, she swallowed a mouthful of saliva to forcibly calm her mind, and said, "That's right, it's the sound of the Jurchen war drums, I have heard it before, and I will never forget it again in my life!" ”

Chu Tianya nodded, and pressed her shoulders a little harder, "It's too cold, you go back to the house and lie down." ”

"No, I'm fine." Xiao Linglong shook her head stubbornly, "You wait for me for a while, I'll change my clothes immediately and go to the city with you to have a look!" ”

Chu Tianya frowned, "Okay! ”

The two went back to their houses, dressed and armoured, and were fully armed.

This moment has finally come.

The war drums of the Jurchens came from all directions of Taiyuan City. I don't know how many war drums they beat at the same time, and I don't know why the sound of this war drum is as shocking as the thunder above the nine heavens falling to the mortal world.

The entire Taiyuan City is like a sleeping person being awakened in a deep dream, frightened and trembling!

Thousands of homes were lit up, but not a single one dared to go out on the streets. All the sergeants urgently gathered and rushed to the gate of the four directions. Warning lanterns were also lit in the various military patrol shops, swords were unsheathed, arrows were wound, and the whole city entered a state of combat readiness and martial law.

After a short time, Chu Tianya and Xiao Linglong both changed their clothes and armor, each rode a horse, and ran to the palace of Guangyang County first.

At first, Xiao Linglong was still a little worried about Chu Tianya's three-legged cat's riding skills, whether there would be problems. As a result, along the way, Chu Tianya ran faster than him, as if he didn't look like a beginner who was learning to ride a horse at all, which couldn't help but make her secretly amazed.

But when he ran to the gate of Wang Yu's Dutong Mansion, Chu Tianya couldn't stop, and rushed out one or two hundred steps away in one breath, and the jujube red horse still didn't stop, so angry that Chu Tianya scolded repeatedly.

Xiao Linglong was both surprised and amused, and hurriedly rode his horse to catch up with him, and finally pulled him back, and the two hurriedly ran into the Dutong Mansion.

While running, Chu Tianya's calves were still cramping. It turned out that he was too anxious and nervous just now, and he was about to overdraw his two legs just by clamping the horse's belly violently, and only then did he realize it. Presumably, the horse was also annoyed by him, so he didn't listen to the command.

Wang Yuzheng rushed out of the hall with a group of generals. As soon as Bu saw Chu Tianya and the others, Wang Yu waved his hand, "Let's go, go to the north gate!" ”

A group of generals got on their horses.

Chu Tianya couldn't care about this much, so he turned over and rode on. Without waiting for Wang Yu and the others to leave, the horse he stepped on rushed out like a mad dog with its tail chopped off.

Wang Yu and the others were all taken aback, "When did Tianya learn to ride a horse?" Why be so anxious, what should I do if I bump into someone on the road! ”

Only Xiao Linglong couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly got on the horse to chase after her. How did others know that Chu Tianya couldn't control that fierce horse at all, and at this moment he was simply riding a blind horse.

As a result, he originally wanted to go to the north gate, but Chu Tianya rushed to the east gate.

The guard of the east gate is Wang Xun, he has to report that there are two horsemen in the city who are crazy and rush to come, first a little annoyed who is so bold and dares to run wild in the city? Later, when he saw that it was Chu Tianya, Wang Xun, who was originally in a very nervous mood, couldn't help but be amused! - Where is he riding a horse, he is clearly riding a horse!

"Come, come and help me! This stupid horse doesn't listen to me, and he can't stop! Chu Tianya shouted there anxiously and annoyed.

Xiao Linglong, who was behind, finally caught up, she suddenly volleyed the horsewhip in the air and made a loud sound, and then put her finger in her mouth and blew a long whistle with an extremely strange tone. The very frantic and out-of-control jujube red horse suddenly stopped, like a machine suddenly cut off the power supply.

Chu Tianya's expression was a little stiff when he rode on the horse, and he looked at Xiao Linglong with straight eyes, "You, how did you get it?" ”

"Pojun taught me. He is the most amazing veterinarian and trainer I have ever met. Xiao Linglong wanted to hold back, but still laughed, "I've never seen such a talented rider as you, the first time you rode alone, you ran faster than me." It's so lucky that no one died! ”

"Broken army? The seventh of your Seven Star Mountain? Chu Tianya was still panting, and his legs and stomach were cramping. At this time, several Shengjie soldiers came up, and finally dragged him off his horse.

Wang Xun shouted at the head of the city, "Brother, you came just in time, come up and take a look!" ”

"It's coming!"

Xiao Linglong also got off the horse and went up to the city with Chu Tianya. The Shengjie army on the left and right all stared at this heroic woman in armor and demon smelting. Xiao Linglong was a little annoyed in her heart, so she put the fork mask on her face.

As soon as he took a look at the face, Wang Xun was surprised by the surprise, and said with a smile after coming back to his senses, "The county lord's mask is really weird...... Are you alright, bro? ”

Chu Tianya didn't seem to hear him speak, he had already looked into the distance in front of the city, his expression was solemn and his eyebrows were locked.

Three or four miles in front of the city, in the dimness of the clouds and snow, and the dawn, a black oppressive field of soldiers and horses stood like a city wall!

It is from there that the rumbling drums of war come from!

"Jurchen?" Chu Tianya asked.

"Who else?" Wang Xun stepped forward with a sullen snort, stretched out his hand and slapped it on the female wall that was half a foot of ice, "These miscellaneous people, who don't sleep in the middle of the night, come here to beat drums and scare people!" ”

"Is it just to scare people? How I feel like they're ready to take the city. Xiao Linglong stepped forward and said. Because he was wearing a mask, his voice was a little weird.

Wang Xun glanced at her sideways, how awkward that Yaksha mask looked, it was indeed a bit hideous and terrifying.

"Lord Xiao is imitating the King of Lanling back then!" He said with a smile, "The king of Lanling in Northern Qi is Gao Changgong, brave and invincible, but he is too handsome and has lost his prestige. Later, he put on a hideous mask and used it to help his enemy, Lord Xiao, with outstanding martial arts, which was inferior to that of King Lanling! ”

"And this? …… I'm really lonely. Xiao Linglong shook her head, "The mask was given to me by Second Brother Jiao, maybe he knows it!" ”

After Wang Xun chatted with Xiao Linglong for a few words, he found that Chu Tianya was looking at the front intently and did not pay any attention to their conversation.

"The Jurchens will not attack the city." Chu Tianya suddenly came out coldly.

"Oh?" Wang Xun and Xiao Linglong were both slightly surprised, "How can you see it?" ”

"They are knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, besieging the city and sending reinforcements." Chu Tianya said, "If you really want to attack the city, it must be Jiaozhong's troops to attack one gate." Their forces are not very large, and now they are scattered in the four cities to surround us, and they are still bravaking drums and bluffing, in fact, they are in order to suppress us, and to overwhelm us in momentum, in a vain attempt to create chaos in the city, so that they can take advantage of the opportunity! ”

"Hey, that makes sense." Wang Xun nodded, "The art of war, ten and surround it, five and attack it, and divide it twice - the Jurchen army outside the city only has 60,000 Jin State iron cavalry at most, plus 40,000 or 50,000 Khitan puppet troops and outcasts of all ethnic groups who have surrendered to the rebels, and at most there are only 1230,000 people. But there are 70,000 troops and 780,000 people in my Taiyuan city, but he dares to come and besiege the city! The Jurchen child raised by the thief didn't take our officials and soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty in their eyes at all! ”

"I haven't read any art of war, so I can't tell Brother Wang." Chu Tianya frowned and said, "I only know one thing, and that is - the Jurchens have become confident to the point of arrogance, and they fantasize about making Taiyuan City fall into chaos with a single drum, and even the army's morale will collapse and surrender without a fight!" ”

"Phew! Be a fucking spring and autumn dream! Wang Xun was furious, "Even if there is only one person left, Taiyuan will never give up resistance!" ”

Chu Tianya's eyebrows were tightly locked, and he glanced left and right, leaned over to Wang Xun's side and whispered, "Brother Wang, in fact, it's not all about the Jurchens. If it weren't for the fact that our officials and troops of the Great Song Dynasty had a 'Baigou defeat' in Hebei back then, the Jurchens would not have been so arrogant and arrogant. ”

When Wang Xun heard this, his face twitched a few times, and his expression was both embarrassed and resentful.

Chu Tianya was right. When Tong Guan led the army to supervise the battle in Hebei to conquer the Liao State, he tun a large army in Baigou. Although the strength of the army was several times that of the Liao army, it was only when they heard that the Liao army had come and there was no formal confrontation, and the Song army lost its armor and collapsed.

After that battle, even the generals of the Liao State did not know how they had won. The grain, grass and baggage accumulated by the Great Song Dynasty in Hebei for twenty or thirty years have been lost!

"Liu Yanqing, he deserves a thousand cuts!" Wang Xun gritted his teeth with hatred, and the general who was ordered to garrison Baigou at that time was Liu Yanqing.

Seeing that there were no idle people waiting around, Wang Xun leaned into Chu Tianya's ear and whispered, "Brother, how is that guy now?" If he dies stiffly, I want to whip him! ”

"I don't know." Chu Tianya smiled, shook his head and said, "Actually, I think that during the battle of Hebei, Master Tong did some things wrong, but he also gave Liu Yanqing a lot of black pots, especially the battle of Baigou. I don't know why later, a defeated general like Liu Yanqing was able to keep the high-ranking officials Houlu, and he could still stay under the command of Tong Taishi to serve, and take charge of the military power and shoulder heavy responsibilities. The Great Song Dynasty was too tolerant of national thieves and indiscriminate people like him, and it became a problem for raising adultery for a long time. ”

"Hey......" Wang Xun let out a long sigh from the bottom of his heart, shook his head unbearably, and said, "You're right, our officials and the imperial court have indeed made a lot of confusion on the issue of employing people. Since the time of the maritime alliance between the Song and Jin countries, they have been making mistakes. Finally, I have come to this step of the field - I have done my own sin, and I can't live! ”

"It's not completely irreparable." Chu Tianya smiled slightly and said, "Brother Wang, since the official family and the imperial court are no longer reliable, then we have to rely on ourselves. Let's not talk about the distance, the battle to defend Taiyuan in front of us must be held to the end! ”.
