Winter is getting deeper, and the grassland blizzards are one after another.

This winter, there was a lot of snow, and the weather was exceptionally cold, and the herders felt the abnormal climate. Chahar has the best active winter pasture in the grassland, such as the Hetao, and the Tumut people also have Han Chinese to help them harvest hay, so that their livestock will not be destroyed by the white plague.

Most of the Chahars crossed the Yellow River into the loop, but a few remained at the Junzijin ferry, and it seemed that they were not ready to hand it over to Tumut. Ezhe's messenger has not been heard from since he came out, and the climate of the grassland in winter is unpredictable, and no tribe dares to travel long distances in such a harsh climate.

The Han cavalry also stopped their training and spent the winter in three cottages, spending eight years in Chongzhen accompanied by cold and loneliness.

Fengyang City.

A tall, burly scribe stood at the head of the city with his hands behind his back. Outside the city, the sun was shining, desolate and deserted, and there was not a single wisp of cooking smoke in sight.

"My lord! General Zu and General Luo have arrived! A man in a strong suit walked vigorously up the city tower and bowed his hand.

The scribe turned his head, only to see clearly that he had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, high cheekbones, and an unstruggling expression, judging from his appearance and complexion, he was in the prime of life, but his temples were a little white, and he looked a little old, and it was Lu Xiangsheng, the prime minister of the five provinces of the Central Plains who had not long been in office.

"Let's go!" Lu Xiangsheng went downstairs first, his steps were fast, and the corners of his clothes were windy.

In the conference hall, the officers and soldiers who have fought fiercely with the thieves in the Central Plains in the past few years are all listed, and they are talking happily with each other. Zu Kuan, Changping guerrilla general Luo Dai and other generals who were drawn from the Guanning Iron Cavalry in Liaodong spoke in rough voices, occasionally scolding their mothers, and the roof of the conference hall seemed to be about to be lifted.

The man in the strong suit came quickly, and shouted more than a dozen steps away from the door: "My lord has arrived!" ”

The noise stopped abruptly, and the chamber suddenly became silent, and Zu Kuan opened his mouth to swallow half of what he had said. As if electrocuted, the generals immediately stood in two columns and two rows, without squinting.

Lu Xiangsheng slowed down, walked in the door, and looked around before striding to the oncoming tiger skin chair and sitting down.

Lu Xiangsheng didn't speak, and even the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be heard in the conference hall.

"Yang 6 Kai, tell the generals about it!" Lu Xiangsheng's voice is a little hoarse, and his voice is very soft, he is from Yixing, Jiangnan, with a bit of Wu Nong's soft accent.

The man who came first stood up and said slowly: "The eight tributary thieves such as Gao Yingxiangji, the Eight Great Kings, and the Shaking Heaven suddenly changed direction and entered the boundary of Nanzhili seven days ago, besieging Chuzhou, and there were also traces of thieves in Nanlujiang and Wuwei Prefecture. ”

No one in the hall said anything.

Lu Xiangsheng coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and said, "Gao Yingxiang was going to attack Fengyang again two months ago, so I summoned all the generals to gather here to guard the imperial tomb. This traitor has always been cunning and unpredictable, and suddenly turned south, and in a month, the vanguard actually invaded the Wuwei Prefecture area, and there are signs of going south, what is the opinion of the generals? ”

Zu Kuan stepped out and arched his hand: "It's all up to your lord's orders!" ”

"If Chuzhou is lost, the thieves can go all the way down to the bank of the Yangtze River, and they will suffer disasters along the way, I want to save Chuzhou, how about you?"

"It's all up to your lordship!" The generals in the tent spoke in unison.

"Good! The generals will follow me to the city of Chuzhou to defeat the thieves, and let Gao Yingxiang teach you! Lu Xiangsheng stood up from his seat, the figure of the Gundam shrouded the generals under the tent, his elegant and calm temperament disappeared, his momentum was like a tiger, and he rushed to the crown angrily, maybe this is his original face.

"In winter, the bloody road is slippery, Gao Yingxiang thought that we were deceived by him to Fengyang, and we had to delay on the way to Chuzhou for rescue, how could we let him expect it, I decided to personally lead the cavalry to attack overnight and break the enemy under the city of Chuzhou!"

"I swear to die!" Zu Kuan took the lead in expressing his position.

Half a year ago, he didn't have this attitude towards Lu Xiangsheng, after being transferred from Liaodong to the Central Plains, Zu Kuan not only looked down on those colleagues who were afraid of the enemy like tigers, but even the governors and governors of various towns did not pay much attention to them. As a military general in a border town, he knows that those civil officials look down on big bosses like himself, and he will not praise those people's stinky feet with his temper, and civil officials always like to do those things that make people stumble behind their backs. With the strong sword in his hand, the Guanning cavalry is strong and invincible, and anyone has to give him some face.

But Lu Xiangsheng was different, when he was engaged in the battle under the new prime minister of the bandits, when he saw the governor wielding a big sword and rushing into the thieves first, and the thieves who killed him cried for his father and mother, threw away his armor and fled, his open mouth could not close for a long time. In the three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, how could there have been such a governor? From that moment on, he became more intimate with Governor Lu.

Since Lu Xiang was promoted to the governor of the bandits, he was unstoppable on the battlefield in every battle, and even the unruly generals of the Central Plains who broke the bandits were very obedient under his command.

Two columns of cavalry ran out of the gate of Fengyang City, and then ten thousand horses galloped and stepped on the shallow snow to the south.

The snow in the south is not as thick as the grassland, and under the sunlight of the last few days after the snow, most of the way has melted, and more than 10,000 cavalry rushed to the direction of Chuzhou City day and night.

Under the city of Chuzhou.

The camp stretches for thirty miles, and half of the thieves in the Central Plains are here, and Gao Yingxiang, the king of the barracks, is anxious. He besieged the city for eight days, slaughtered all the inhabitants of the surrounding area, plundered the property, food and grass, but never broke the city. If the army wants to go south, it must either break Chuzhou or Shouzhou, Shouzhou has a large population, the city is high and the walls are thick, and it is a bone that is not easy to gnaw, so he chose to attack Chuzhou.

But I didn't expect that although Chuzhou City is small, surrounded by mountains on three sides, one side is the turbulent Chushui with a water width of ten zhang, and the large army can not be launched when attacking the city, and the military and civilians in the city work together to defend it, and it has not been able to achieve its wish.

"King Chuang, is it another batch of soldiers!" Gao Jie looked at the fatigue of the soldiers under the city wall.

"Don't change!" Gao Yingxiang was furious, "Siege the city, day and night, the city must be broken within three days!" He walked back and forth seven or eight times in a square inch of land, and asked as if confirmed: "Lu Xiangsheng is in Fengyang City, right?" ”

"Yes, King Chuang!" Gao Jie could also sense King Chuang's uncertainty.

"The news here must have reached Fengyang, and King Lu Yan will definitely pursue here within half a month, if you can't go south, the army will be trapped and killed here!"

King Lu Yan is another name given to Lu Xiang by the thief, and he thinks that he was the first to shout from the old Hui tribes. It was four or five years ago, when Lu Xiangsheng was still serving as a soldier in the three southern provinces of Gyeonggi, Shanxi thieves wandered around after entering Shanxi, and the old Hui Hui invaded the Daimyo's mansion, and happened to meet Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army, and those who were killed fled in the wilderness. It is not uncommon for thieves to be killed and defeated by the official army, but no one wants to meet Lu Xiangsheng, and if he is defeated and does not die, he will lose his skin. The officers and soldiers of the other departments chased for a period and looted some property and let go, Lu Xiangsheng will chase it, there is no way to enter the sky, there is no way to enter the ground, and he only hates his father and mother for having two legs.

"The road is slippery in the snow, not so fast!" Gao Jie's words gave Gao Yingxiang a little comfort.

"Then we must also step up the siege of the city, I have been crisscrossing the Central Plains for several years, am I still blocked by this small Chuzhou City?"

Gao Jie took the order and left. What about breaking the city? When you reach the Yangtze River, you can't find a warship, can you get rid of the pursuit of King Lu Yan after going south? He was pessimistic about the future of the army.

For three consecutive days, the siege battle became more and more tragic day by day. The thieves used to burn and loot in various places with a bad reputation, and the people of Chuzhou City could imagine the tragic situation when the city was broken.

The thieves of the king are running around, mainly cavalry, and the officers and soldiers cannot resist in every field battle, even if the defeated officers and soldiers cannot catch up, but when they attack the city, they are poor in donkey skills. The artillery on the city wall of Chuzhou did not stop all day, and under each bombardment, the fire was shining, and the lead of stones the size of copper coins burst out, stained with blood holes, and after nearly ten days of attack, the morale of the army was low.

In the afternoon, Gao Yingxiang was thundering, pointing to the head of the city and swearing, saying: "After I break the city, I will slaughter this city!" ”

Suddenly, a cavalry galloped into the camp, and the knight flew off his horse outside the big tent of the Chinese army, galloped in, and saw Gao Yingxiang kneeling on the ground and hurriedly said: "King Chuang, something is wrong!" ”

"Don't panic!"

"King Luyan's soldiers and horses are here!" Among the thieves, they really talked about the change of color of King Luyan.

Gao Yingxiang Tengteng took half a step back, his body shook, and he came to his senses and asked, "Where is King Lu Yan?" ”

"Just forty miles away!"

"Nonsense!" Gao Yingxiang grabbed the scout by the collar and lifted him up, his open mouth only half a foot away from the scout's face, his face distorted.

The scout was so frightened that he couldn't speak for a long time.

At this moment, three or four war horses hurriedly came outside the camp, Gao Jie turned over and dismounted and rushed into the camp tent, his face panicked and said, "King Lu Yan is here!" ”

"It's really coming!" Gao Yingxiang put down the suffocating scout, and the scout collapsed to the ground in fright.

"Many groups of scouts have appeared with King Luyan's men and horses, about more than 10,000 cavalry!"

"More than 10,000 people dare to sneak attack my 300,000 army!" Gao Yingxiang waved his arms frantically, and all the emotions that had been attacking the city for days burst out, as if he was hiding the fear in his heart. In the past ten years, from Shaanxi to Nanzhili, countless people have been killed in the siege of the city, why are you so uneasy at this moment?

"Meet the enemy!"

30,000 elite cavalry neatly dressed out of the camp tent, Gao Yingxiang's whole body was shrouded in armor, only a pair of eyes showed a terrifying light, this is a strong army he has accumulated for ten years, all imitate the Guanning cavalry with iron armor, and most of the war horses are good horses from the grassland. Defeating Lu Xiangsheng's soldiers and horses will allow him to gain enough buffer time, and the thieves who have lurked in Wuwei Prefecture in the early stage are collecting warships, as long as he enters Jiangnan, half of the world's wealth will become the cornerstone of his hegemony.

Chushui is turbulent, facing the pipeline between the two mountains, a cavalry slowly comes, the huge "Lu" character waving in the wind, that banner is a deterrent to the thieves.

"See? That is Gao Yingxiang, the king of the Central Plains! Lu Xiangsheng pointed to the tent across the river.

"So many people!" Luo Dai's face changed slightly.

"Thieves, stupid as pigs!" Lu Xiangsheng looked contemptuous and asked, "Chief Soldier Zu, dare to break the enemy for me?" ”

"Why don't you dare?" (To be continued)
