ps: Thank you for the monthly pass support of the autumn leaves

Tongchuan Mansion is located in the east of Chengdu, adjacent to the gate of Chengdu Mianzhu Pass, which can be called the east barrier of Chengdu Mansion. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 In order to reflect the important strategic position of Tongchuan Mansion, the Tongchuan Mansion Road established in the Southern Song Dynasty was separated from Lizhou Road and Chengdu Mansion Road, and at the same time governed Tongchuan Mansion in the north and Luzhou in the south, which were all first-class important towns in the defense of Sichuan and Shu.

First of all, the Mongolian army swept from the north, all the way invincible, so that Tongchuan Mansion and Chengdu Mansion fell overnight, Tongchuan Mansion Road did not play the original intention of establishment, and then it was Liu Quan's rebellion that shook the world, and Luzhou surrendered to Mongolia, so that the huge Tongchuan Mansion Road did not regain an inch of land owned by the former Song Dynasty.

If it weren't for Jia Rudao's anger and urging Lu Wende to enter the army, he would have finally laid down half of the rivers and mountains in Luzhou to protect the Tongchuan Fu Road, and I am afraid that this new road would directly exist in name only. It's just that after Liu Cheng retreated to Tongchuan Mansion, he had the support of Chengdu Mansion and even the Guanzhong Mongol Army behind, and he didn't give an inch, so that Lu Wende could only be discouraged.

After Ye Yingwu once defeated Liu Quan, and the Ming army also triumphantly played in several northern expeditions, but none of them hit the gate of Tongchuan Mansion, but later the Mongolian army gathered here, all the way through Mianzhu Pass to Chengdu Mansion, so that the Sichuan Shu army had to delay time by defending Chengdu Mansion, and this earth-shattering bloody battle broke out.

Lema stood on the hillside in front of Tongchuan Mansion, Zhang Jue's face was full of murderous intent.

And behind him, countless Ming army foot riders, black pressure lined up, like black clouds from the sky to the head of the city. And in this dense crowd, the red flag fluttered in the wind, and a famous soldier subconsciously looked up at the wind.

In an instant, Zhang Jue felt that the Tongchuan Mansion in front of him, which had always been as insurmountable as a moat, would be so small, as if a fist would be completely flattened. The war horse neighed low in the wind, and the wind hovering over the land of abundance, although it was more humid and warm than the Central Plains, still carried a chill in the end, refreshing the spine.

"Junyu, let's go." Gundam didn't know when he slowly rode his horse to Zhang Jue's side.

And beside Zhang Jue, Zan Wanshou and Shi Xunzhong raised the blade in their hands at the same time, and looked at Tongchuan Mansion with a complicated look in their eyes.

Suddenly, the sound of trumpets and cannons sounded above the city. And Zhang Jue exhaled and ordered in a deep voice: "Beat the drum, move forward!" ”

Rows and rows of cavalry were in front, banners held high, while infantry brigades marched behind them, their spears not leveled, like undulating waves of steel in the wind. As if to make peace with the trumpets on the city's head, a row of musketeers stepped forward at the same time amid the earth-shaking drums.

"Put!" The team leader shouted.

A row of empty guns was pointed at the sky, thumping. The white clouds in the sky seemed to freeze at this moment, and the wind on the fields and between the hills became stronger and stronger, blowing the sleeves of everyone's clothes and the flag. The flags fluttering weakly were lifted by the wind, stretched out in the blazing gaze.

"The wind is blowing." Zan Wanshou chuckled.

Reaching out to touch the mane of the war horse, Shi Xunzhong also nodded: "The wind is blowing." ”

The wind rose, and in an instant, it seemed that countless souls were hovering above the nine heavens. Those souls from Diaoyu City, those souls from Luzhou City, those souls from Mianzhuguan, and those souls from Chengdu Mansion!

Since Duanping entered Luo, all the countless souls who have shed their blood in this vast land in the past thirty years seem to be gathered in the sky above Tongchuan Mansion at this moment, with eyes that see through reincarnation and void, staring closely at the banners and the queue below. This is the son of the Han family, this is the army of the Han family, at this moment, standing again on this land full of blood.

And just behind them, the sound of drums and firecrackers complemented each other, and in front of them, a white banner slowly rose on the city as if the rolling tide could be turned into powder at any time, and the figure of the defenders on the city wall was no longer visible, and the high suspension bridge was put down in a daze, and smashed heavily on the banks on both sides of the moat, and the smoke and dust rolled.

Tongchuan Prefecture, once the symbol of Mongol rule in Dongchuan, opened its closed gates in front of the crowd of foot riders rolling in front of them, and the red flags that stretched from the end of the sky to the moat, and the low weeping cries could be faintly heard in the city.

A desolate figure appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Different from the figure that walked out of Luzhou Divine Arm City many years ago, after so many years, this figure is more haggard and thin, and it is no longer as sharp and angular as it was back then. From a distance, it looked like a heavy fate had broken the spine.

"Liu Quan." Zhang Jue's voice was low, but with a touch of determination, he looked at the figure.

"Liu Quan." Gundam breathed a sigh of relief, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and even involuntarily reached out to stroke his already gray beard.

"Liu Quan." Shi Xunzhong and Zan Wanshou's eyes flashed with complicated expressions, if it was a little more killing intent before, then now it is more pitiful, pity for the weak.

"Liu Quan." Countless soldiers of the Ming army silently recited this name that once made them fearful, frightened, and hated in their hearts, and also looked at this figure that slowly came out.

Every step that figure took, the hearts of countless people inside and outside the city beat heavily.

If it weren't for the fact that his armor was still intact and he was still holding the official seal in his hand, I am afraid no one would have thought that this was the thorn in the eye and the thorn in the flesh of the former Song Dynasty, and Liu Quan, who was invincible throughout Dongchuan, the general who broke through the weakness of Xiangfan in the Southern Song Dynasty and was high-spirited for a while!

It seems that in just a few years, he has aged twenty or thirty years.

However, those who really know the inside story understand that Liu Cheng is not slowly getting old, but has lost all his hair in this week! Because Liu Cheng was still a step slower after all. When he thought that he was a strange commodity to live in, and the Mongols and the Ming Dynasty did not hesitate to offer a very high price in order to solicit his attitude, Liu Quan's biggest reliance, the main Mongol force was defeated in Guanzhong, and the Ming army won a complete victory in this war, rather than Liu Quan's imagination of both defeats and collapse.

After the defeat of Mongolia, it soon withdrew from Hanzhong, Qishan and even Longyou, and the troops shrank in Hexi, and there was no intention of advancing at all, which also made Liu Quan's already lost a lot of troops in the battle of Chengdu not replenished, and that's it, and what is even worse is that the last trace of contact between Mongolia and Liu Quan was also cut off because of the Shence army stationed in Hanzhong.

In other words, Liu Cheng is now a lone army, with no reinforcements, no food and grass, and even enough equipment, which is no longer enough to support a big battle, or even a city defense battle. And Liu Cheng has fewer and fewer choices to make at such a juncture.

Because he had just recovered, Zhang Jue couldn't wait to lead the Sichuan and Shu army to Mianzhu Pass, and the hundreds of Mongolian foot soldiers guarding Mianzhu Pass did not even support it for two hours. In this protracted battle, the Jinghu Army, which had been aggrieved for too long, also dispatched in an all-round way, and the troops were divided into two routes, the north road drove directly from Jinzhou to Dazhou and Bazhou, and joined the Shence army in the south, oppressing Langzhou in the north of Tongchuan Prefecture, while the south road was directly along the first line of Quzhou, Guang'an Army, and Guozhou, which was almost undefended, and drove straight into the east side of Tongchuan Mansion.

The Jinghu Army was originally used as the general reserve of the Ming Dynasty on various fronts, and its main role was also to urgently enter Sichuan when the Sichuan and Shu armies could not support it, and this time the main Mongolian force was defeated, and the Ming Dynasty was advancing on all fronts, invincible, and all the armies had already killed the red eyes, and there was no place for the Jinghu army, so Ye Yingwu simply did not do anything, and directly mobilized the Jinghu Army to enter Sichuan along Jinzhou.

Since the beginning of the war, the Jinghu army can only stare dryly, and has been holding its breath, and now it has finally found a place to release, and the armies under the command of Liu Quan, who are tired from the long war, turned out to be the sons of the Han family, and now the Ming Dynasty represents the Han family and Huaxia is coming, and no one is willing to die for Liu Quanxiao, basically just pretending to resist, and then surrendering happily, otherwise even if the Jinghu army is strong, it is impossible to kill it so quickly.

Because along the way, it's not so much a war as a rapid march!

In front of him, there was a vigorous Sichuan Shu army that wanted to take revenge, on both sides was the Jinghu army that wanted to take him to practice meat, and behind him there was a famous Shence army that swept all the way through Heluo Guanzhong, and there were only two paths left in an instant.

And the Mongolian side did not have any instructions for his lone army, as if Kublai Khan had forgotten that there was such a nail embedded in Dongchuan, and also forgot that there was also a general who was "loyal" to Mongolia. Therefore, Liu Quan either instigated the demoralized stragglers to defend the city to the death, and finally died on the battlefield as a Mongolian general, or he took these people out of the city and surrendered to the Ming army.

Liu Cheng was not a fool, and he had already prepared to surrender before this, so he didn't think much about it at this time, and quickly wrote a letter of surrender and sent it to Zhang Jue's camp. This is also the second letter of surrender written by Liu Quan in just a few weeks.

Unlike the last time when the Shence Army was still fighting with Mongolia in Guanzhong, the letter of surrender that even had a rebellious tone was even in a rebellious tone, Zhang Jue had to sigh that this letter was much more sincere.

Because this time Liu Cheng did not have any bargaining capital, nor did he have any capital to rely on, if he persisted any longer, I am afraid that his soldiers would not mind following the example of Chengdu Mansion to deal with Liu Yuanzhen and send him out in exchange for meritorious service.

Looking at Liu Quan, who walked in front of him step by step, Zhang Jue did not move.

Behind him, countless soldiers did not make any movements, as if this person who walked forward with rickety steps was an illusory shadow that should not exist in the world.

Liu Cheng walked to Zhang Jue's horse, slowly knelt on the ground, and lifted the helmet and seal symbolizing his identity in the tray together, his voice was a little dry and trembling: "Sinner Liu Quan, lead the defenders of Tongchuan Mansion and 23,425 people to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, please accept it!" ”

"If you knew this was the case, why bother to regret it at the beginning, and not realize that it was too late?" Zhang Jue said lightly.

Liu Cheng Huoran raised his head, and there was still a light in his eyes that had not yet dissipated, but this light was like the last beating bonfire, which did not go away in a moment, leaving only a gloom, he just knelt on the ground and muttered and repeated: "Success and defeat, success and defeat!" ”

Zhang Jue raised his eyebrows: "These words, you go and talk to His Royal Highness King Ming, enter the city!" ”

"Into town!" Gundam, Zan Wanshou, Shi Xunzhong ・・・・・・ countless soldiers raised their arms and shouted.

And in the sky, the wind is blowing, and there seem to be countless loyal souls, and then they roar and shout together!

――――――――――――――

"His Royal Highness's promise to all the people on that day should be the day when the Central Plains is set in the north, and it should be the time to be crowned emperor. Now the Ming Erlang is invincible, sweeping Guanzhong, the Central Plains, Sichuan Shu, Shandong, the remnants of the Song Dynasty are scattered mountains and rivers, if you talk about meritorious service, His Royal Highness is the first meritorious, Li Shu has no complaints. Now that the war is over, all the ruins are waiting to be rebuilt, His Royal Highness is the honor of the Ming Dynasty, and he should also fulfill the promise of the past, and ascend to the great treasure to comfort the expectations of the people. The emperor, descending from the ancestral dragon, is the foundation of the country. A country can be without ministers for a day, but not without a king for a day. The emperor ruled the world on the day of Bianfeng Suining and saved the world when the mountains and rivers were broken. Since His Royal Highness became king, the southern and northern wars, the horses and horses, the weight of the military achievements, the real experience; Patrol the south and go north, open the way to study, benevolent government, and benefit the people. This martial arts should be matched by the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty and owned by the new emperor of the dynasty. Therefore, the minister Wen Tianxiang died to knock on the que, in order to make the people convinced, the soldiers used their lives, and hoped that His Royal Highness would obey the mandate of heaven and obey the previous promise, and ascend to the great treasure. Your Highness thinks twice, and the minister is grateful! ”

Slowly closing the concerto, Ye Yingwu stood silently at the head of Chang'an, looking at the Jingzhao Mansion that had already dispersed the smoke of gunpowder. Symbolizing the Jianzhang Palace, Weiyang Palace and Changle Palace, symbolizing the Cuiwei Palace and Daming Palace of the Tang Dynasty, the layers of palaces and pavilions are unfolded in front of you like a magnificent picture, how many honors and disgraces gather here, and how many emperors who have passed down the annals of history have embarked on the road to success here.

This city has witnessed so much and carried too much.

The footsteps behind him sounded, and at this time, Yang Su was the only one who had the ability to come up and disturb Ye Yingwu, and the surrounding soldiers also subconsciously retreated to make room for the two of them. Glancing at the music in Ye Yingwu's hand, Su Niang suddenly understood:

"Another persuasion table?"

Ye Yingwu nodded: "This time it's Song Rui's." The six Shangshu have been jointly signed before, Lu Junshi and Su Renzhong have also been on behalf of civil officials and military attaches respectively, and even the persuasion tables of the Hanlin Academy, the Academy and the Yushitai have flown over, and the integration of the state capitals in various places has a box, but none of these have been replied to, and finally Song Rui can't sit still. ”

"Then what are you waiting for, as if you don't want to be an emperor. Do you have to let the civil and military officials come to this Jingzhao Mansion to beg you? Yang Xu suddenly said with some resentment, "Isn't it annoying to pretend to be high at this time." ”

A little mischievous blinked, Ye Yingwu raised the movement in his hand: "The time has not come, the time has not come, don't panic!" ”

Su Niang suddenly snorted softly, and for a while she couldn't figure out what kind of calculation her husband was making in his heart. And Ye Yingwu turned around, still looking at the majestic Jingzhao Mansion. Even today, Jingzhao Mansion is already a rare big city in the Central Plains, and the soul of the great imperial capital cast in the Han and Tang dynasties is still deeply solidified in this city.

After thousands of years, it has not dispersed.

"So, I'm still waiting." Ye Yingwu smiled, revealing a neat row of white teeth, "It's not enough to be a civil and military official, since we want to act and be hypocritical, it's better to be thorough." ”

Su Niang suddenly looked at Ye Yingwu with some confusion: "Be thorough?" Could it be that you really want this civil and military official to beg you? Isn't that a bit too much? After all, it is you who ascend the throne, not the Minister of Literature. ”

"So-and-so isn't waiting for them," Ye Yingwu's hand gently brushed away the snow on the battlements, and said with a chuckle, "So-and-so is waiting for others." ”

After a pause, Ye Yingwu chuckled and said: "Throughout the ages, the matter of persuasion has been paid attention to three advances and three words, and the advice of civil and military officials should be the first time." The second time is the royal family, and the third time, when it is for all the people in the world, now it is just the first time! Since he has already stood in the position of King Ming, it is no big deal to ascend the throne a while earlier and ascend the throne a while later, anyway, it is an ironclad matter, and now he is waiting for those who want to take advantage of this opportunity to gain some fame and those who want to work hard in the new dynasty to operate themselves, and they believe that they will do this well. ”

Su Niang nodded indifferently.

Since his husband is determined, let him go.

And Ye Yingwu looked up at the south: "It's been more than two months, and now I want to come to the ice on the big river in the south, and it's going to melt." Not much later, it is the time of the Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet. If we go back now, we can follow the spring breeze all the way! ”

The voice fell slowly, and Ye Yingwu reached out and patted the ancient city wall:

"It's time to go back, if you don't go back, I'm afraid those guys in Nanjing will really come to knock."
