Chapter Ninety-Five: The Breach
Chapter 95 of the first volume of Yanyun Chaos, the neighing of horses and Herod outside the curtain was everywhere, and the smoke of cooking mixed with the chatter and laughter of the Shenqu Chong Sacrifice Army and the Shengjie Army and the Bailou Soldiers floated in one after another.
Twilight has already closed in the wilderness, shrouded in the Sorghum River.
: The cavalry of the Thousand Song Army, showing off their might in front of the last barrier of Yanjing, in front of B, Xiao Gan's army did not dare to bend the bow and cross south.
In the eyes of the most elite cavalry of these Song troops, the world of Yandi was open, but no army could resist their men and horses coming and going freely, and it was the time when morale was the highest.
Xiao Yan came south alone, and the feats he accomplished in the middle of the year 1 are also legends in the mouths of these soldiers.
Autumn in the north is crisp, the sky is full of stars, and out of the robe of life and death are the legendary commanders on it.
In front of him is the first achievement since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty.
The camp on the road ahead was full of laughter.
No one cares about the war between Japan and Japan.
Everyone thinks that as long as the army arrives, the morale in front of them is low, and the Xiao Gan army, which doesn't even dare to challenge Nandu, can only be crushed in front of the Great Song Tianwei! This Xiao Gan.
The legendary sales commander Xiao Yan and Xiao Xuanzan who have already been their subordinates are defeated! The 200 Shenwu Changsheng army that was sent to the north to meet the 200 victorious army, and the 200 victorious army.
I didn't expect the trip to be so arduous.
I'm just packing up my harness, and I'm going to set off as soon as it's dark.
Robes come and go.
They all laughed and scolded a few words, and these people and horses who were ordered to go north to meet also laughed and scolded back, and in the words, they all felt that their fate was not very good, and they were assigned to the north to carry out the task of receiving the sentinels, and when the time came, when the army went north to Yanjing, I don't know if I could rush back! The corporates at the bottom don't take it seriously, but the generals who know some inside information are not as easy as them.
Ma Kuo and Xiao Yan had a dispute.
Quite a few people are looking at it.
This time, Xiao Yan actually changed his mind.
At the beginning, he refused to disperse his troops and horses to the north to guard.
Now 400 people have been sent north to respond, which shows that Ma Kuo's original worries are very likely to happen.
Even Xiao Yan is worried about the Jurchen army heading south! For the Jurchens, everyone knows little.
But everyone knows that this is a company that started with a few thousand soldiers.
In a short period of time, a strong military presence that defeated the huge Great Liao Empire zài! If they go south, what will be the situation, and what kind of fate will Yue Fei, who is far away in the north and is on the way south for the Jurchens, behead? Lu, whatever you do, just take orders.
I don't know what to say, your 400 army, what military equipment and equipment are missing.
Which athlete do you want to tune?
Just open your mouth.
I'll help you say it in front of the proclamation! Don't hide everything in your belly again, "Brother Yue, they are too far north, we still have to stay here in the Gaoliang River, and all the work we need to rely on you Zhang Xian squatting in front of Tang Huai, just muttering instructions."
The little white face just looked at Tang Huai with a worried look.
Xiao Yan finally gave the order to pick up Yue Fei and them.
Zhang Xian, Niu Gao, and Tang Huai, who stayed on the front line of the Gaoliang River, were all smiling.
The relationship between the five of them is so close that outsiders can't imagine it.
Now although Feng Xiaoyan is the main one who is desperate, Yue Fei is far away from the Gubeikou line in the north, and he is alone, a few.
The brothers were all worried.
Xiao Yan finally put aside the unhappiness in his heart, and ordered Tang Huai to lead the army to meet Ma Kuo and Yue Fei, and they were probably the most elated.
Niu Ju also sent a few sentences*, and Xiao Yan was not happy that he would not send him to answer.
However, since Xiao Yan swept away Zhuoyi Erzhou and led the army north to Yanjing, he has obviously seen that his authority is getting heavier, and he doesn't dare to complain in front of Xiao Yan.
Listening to Zhang Xian's instructions there, Tang Huai still didn't say a word, just squatted on the ground and carefully adjusted the bowstring of his hard bow, hung it up and glanced at it a few times before taking it off.
Carefully put the bowstring into the leather pouch around his waist.
Zhang Xian was nagging there, but Tang Huai just didn't say a word.
Zhang Xian looked at Tang Huai's appearance, and he was so anxious that he stomped his feet.
Xiao Yan and Han Shizhong summoned Tang Huai to the tent of the Chinese army to receive orders today.
Tang Huai also had this virtue, but silently surrendered his life.
Not a word.
Xiao Yan asked him what helpers he wanted and which people he wanted to transfer, but Tang Huai just shook his head silently.
Now the time came to persuade him a few words, but Tang Huai still didn't say a word! Just when Zhang Xian was angry and hateful, he heard the sound of footsteps outside the tent, and then he saw the curtain lifted, but it was Niu Gao's stout figure holding a jar and striding in with an oiled paper bag in his hand.
He had not been disarmed, and his body was covered in mud and water.
It seems that Gangwang has just returned from the sorghum Henan patrol.
When he heard the news, he rushed over, and as soon as he came in, he opened his voice and shouted: "Lao Huai, why don't you let me go with you?" You have to speak.
Can you still agree to praise it? I'll give you a deputy and leave, and I can't rest assured that my brother Yue will not be relieved! Tang Huai looked up.
Seeing what he said, he said in a sullen voice: "Jurchen Lezi is going south, it's useless for you to follow me."
Still counting on the Xuanzan brigade to respond.
Jurchen Lezi doesn't go south, what are you doing with Bai Run? Anyway, I went, and I always kept my brother from the Yue family back, what else to say? "He's a stuffy jar, and it's unprecedented, to say so many things at once.
It seems that these words have been in his stomach for an unknown number of times.
Han Shizhong said to Xiao Yan that he chose Tang Huai to lead the army but responded to Yue Fei, this old Qiu Ba, who had been in the army for more than ten years, really knew people.
The task of receiving them this time was arduous, and in case the Jurchens went south, they had to ensure that they were met by Shangyue Fei, and the news should be transmitted back in time.
It is not possible for people who are not calm.
Needless to say, Niu Gao's rough temperament, even Han Shizhong himself felt that he was too sharp and sharp, and he could calm down when he didn't see it, instead of going out to fight.
Zhang Xian and Niu Gao glanced at each other, and Niu Gao scratched his head in distress: "Brother Yue seems to think that the Jurchen will go south, otherwise he will not follow Ma Xuanzan to the north."
That's what he is.
Temper, whoever is in danger will be there! We've been brothers for a few years, which time has he not been like this? But Xiao Xuanzan's ability is even greater, look at the miraculous feats that Xuanzan has made, I can't do it even if I cut off my head! Xuanzan said that the Jurchen would not go south, and I didn't know who to believe, Xuanzan picked Lao Huai to pick up the Yue family's brother this time, and I was so happy that my heart blossomed again.
But I wondered again, is this Xuanzan thinking that the elder brother of the Yue family is right? Needless to say, the Jurchens are powerful, and the Liao people have seen battles, not soft! can beat the Liao people to such a gray death, the Jurchens are naturally strong.
They went south, what should they do with Xuanzan? Lao Huai and the safety of the elder brother of the Yue family, "Xuanzan, he wants Yanjing" I looked, these officials of our Great Song Dynasty, Xuanshuai, and this and that bird Xianggong, also want this great achievement, Wow Niu Gao, the stout man frowned more and more he spoke, and it was rare for the straight man to use his brain, but he was facing such an entangled problem.
There are several sides of the three sides, entangled in the meantime.
Each has its own thoughts around the Yandi Fengyun.
But Xiao Yan has to fight his way out in such a storm, and the final focus is still on Yanjing Xiongcheng.
Does Xiao Yan want Yanjing, or does he want this overall situation, and do you want these brothers who were born and died with him to the present? No one is sure.
Only the Jurchens are said to be only 6,000, and they have to chase the Liao Bird Emperor, in case they go south, and the troops who come from the division will not be much away.
Xuanzan drew 600 soldiers out.
These 600 soldiers all know that they can fight and survive.
Needless to say, Brother Yue, that Ma Xuanzan is also a good man, and he will never retreat lightly.
From the north to the Gaoliang River, the area is vast, and it can always be done by entangling Jurchen shoes for a while.
Is Xuanzan ready to include these 600 soldiers, just to Yanjing City? After all, Liaogou won't last long! Seeing that they didn't dare to cross the Gaoliang River to challenge, you knew that they didn't have the heart to fight a decisive battle! That bird Xiao Gan King.
It's still the fucking idea.
There are so many tens of thousands of soldiers, no matter which one they throw into, they are not high-ranking officials? This great achievement, Xiao Xuanzan is willing to do it? Niu Gao was stunned and said the thoughts that were just lingering in the hearts of the generals, and in the whole army, he probably dared to say it when he understood it.
Fuyan's great work is really very confusing.
The king of the first arrival, there are not many soldiers who can come, they occupy Yanjing first, stabilize their foothold, and the Jurchens may not come to challenge the Song army of more than 100,000, after all, there is still a bird covenant.
Maybe after a while, seeing that there is no cheapness, it will retreat.
Xiao Yan divided his men and horses to go out to respond, although it showed that he was now also inclined to the Jurchens to take advantage.
But in the end, he is not going to sacrifice these 600 people to cover the flank of his army for a period of time, so that he can directly take Yanjing and achieve great achievements.
Stabilize his glory and wealth in the Great Song Dynasty, and no one can make a straight decision! Zhang Xian and Tang Huai both looked up at Niu Gao.
Niu Lian also knew that he had talked too much, so he closed his mouth and didn't say a word more.
The three of them just looked at each other.
In the tabernacle, there was a tense breath.
After a long time, Zhang Xiancai scolded Niu Gao in a low voice: "Niu barbarian, what nonsense are you talking about!" Niu Ben's neck straightened, and he wanted to say something to refute, but in the end he lowered his head and muttered in a low voice: "I just said it, I don't believe it, Xiao Xuanzan will give up the Yue family's brother and Lao Huai them, and go to ask for the revenge of the thief!" Zhang Xian was so angry that he scolded louder: "Niu barbarian, what maggots are you chewing!" If these words enter the ears of the proclamation, think what a sin it is! During the dispute between the two, Tang Huai had slowly stood up, glanced at his brother, and lowered his head again: "Since we have followed Xuanzan, we should no longer doubt Xuanzan" just do our duty.
Praise all the way, and never let us down! He has never said much, but when he speaks, it is often the most weighty words.
The three of them looked at each other, and they all remembered that they had been captured in the deserted village all the way, that they had adventures in Zhuozhou, that they had attacked and killed the Jurchen envoys, that they had broken into the camp of the Liao people alone, and that they had all kinds of piles and piles in Zhuozhou City.
This little white face with tears in her eyes when she first met had already taken a few of them to the mud-legged warriors so far and achieved so much.
There is already the Gaoliang River in front of you, and Yanjing is not far away.
And Yue Fei must be at this time.
He has also set foot on the ancient Great Wall, listening to the howling wind north of the Great Wall, and has become the first batch of soldiers to defend the Chinese fence in a hundred years.
What else is there to say? No matter what Xiao Yan plans to do, everyone is just dead.
Since joining the army, everyone has never thought about being a basil again, Xiao Yan has already taken them to be destined to be recorded in the annals of the war between the Song Liao and Jurchen tripartite of Xuanhe and the four Jurchens, so why bother thinking about the rest? Cloaked.
Unremarkable.
Originally, I just planned to come to see Tang Huai.
See what else he's asking for before he leaves.
But I didn't expect to hear such words in the tabernacle.
Xiao Yan was silent under the night sky.
Han Shizhong was beside him, looking at Xiao Yan's side face, bowing his head and not speaking.
Yan Di fought for several months, living in the wind, frost and sword day by day.
Xiao Yan's face also had a look of wind and frost.
The lines of the face, which used to appear soft in the peaceful modern society, are now gradually hardened and angular.
In his eyes, some of the immodest and bad looks that he often carried became lighter and lighter.
Maybe even Xiao Yan didn't realize it.
His way of thinking, acting and disposing of things is becoming more and more like a heroic figure in the land of Youyan in this era.
What I want most is Yanjing.
Zhang Xianniu lifted them, and somewhat saw a part of the situation in front of him.
I don't know that I am now beautiful on the surface, but behind the scenes, there are infinite risks.
Only by winning Yanjing can you truly consolidate your net worth and position in this era.
In order to make a difference in the years to come, to be able to save the end of the world! He finally decided to face the threat of the Jurchens posing south, and dispatched his already small number of men and horses to the north to meet Yue Fei and them.
I have no doubt about it.
When Yue Fei and the others faced the Jurchen army that might come south, they would fight to the end desperately, giving them time to react in this regard.
And under the soil of the Great Song Dynasty, how will it respond? Who would want to send their own military horses north to do such a thankless errand.
And the great work of Fuyan will be easily given to others? Liu Yanqing would never do this kind of thing, and the old fox would not do this kind of thing either.
And what about yourself? Will you choose the path of going north to meet the enemy? Or just use the time that Yue Fei and the others might get, ignore it, and go straight to Yanjing? As long as Yanjing City is taken, the Jurchen them.
It may not be possible to turn the tables in the land of the swallows.
Maybe it's just a loot and leave.
But Yue Fei and them, it's over" But let the Jurchens see how weak the Great Song Dynasty was, and after they broke through the alliance and didn't dare to resist the four, they may continue to go south as in history, drowning the most prosperous and rich Chinese civilization in the Middle Ages in the sea of blood.
Then there is the history of barbaric destruction of the miè civilization that lasted for one hundred and fifty years.
Until the last bit of vitality of Huaxia was lost, although in the end it was still a difficult revival.
But this civilization, how much has it lost and how much it has missed! Han Shizhong just watched the expression on Xiao Yan's face change.
In the end, Xiao Yan just quietly made a gesture, led the people around him, and silently retreated, letting the three brothers say goodbye to each other.
When he walked a little farther, Han Shizhong looked at the silent Xiao Yan with a smile: "Xuanzan, we still focus on Yanjing?" Xiao Yan glanced back at him silently.
Forced smile: "We're just prepared just in case!" Didn't the Jurchens still not go south? Of course, focus on Yanjing, as soon as the army arrives, it will attack the heart of Youyan, splash Han Wu, don't live up to my expectations! Han Shizhong snorted and nodded.
He hugged his arms and looked into the distance: "Xiao Gan has no heart to fight, and I can ensure that Yanjing is not enough, as long as the army moves together, I will definitely be able to take the lead in killing Yanjing for Xuanzan!" He closed his lips and just stared blankly to the north.
The wind suddenly became stronger, and the sky was full of stars.
Suddenly, it dimmed, but countless dark clouds rolled in from the sky, piling up in the distance.
In the camp, the neighing of the war horses suddenly became louder, and they jumped in panic.
The warriors ran in all directions.
Spread the tarpaulin in the stables and nail the tabernacle.
The Diao Xinhu, who sent sentinels to patrol, kept coming out, and everyone could see that there was a torrential rain.
Sweeping across the culverts, shrouding the mountains and rivers in a gloom.
This rainy night is a good opportunity to touch the camp and kill, and the sentinels must be sent out doubly! In the dark clouds on the horizon, lightning flashed a hideous description, reflecting the heavens and the earth in uncertain light, and the wind became stronger and stronger, sweeping through the withered grass, only making a terrible whistling sound.
Xiao Yan's big camp is a light and heavy cavalry across the stream.
They were all silent, each in its place, and the scornful butter torches that were not afraid of water hunted and danced in the village.
The soldiers who took off their armor also put on their armor again, and the officers who patrolled the camp were also dispatched.
Patrol around, reminding every soldier to be vigilant.
Gale will stand on the camp side.
Xiao Yan and Han Shizhong, who were watching the orderly actions of the old men under their command, lifted their cloaks high, just hunting behind them.
The dull sound of thunder came faintly from afar.
It seems to knock on the bottom of everyone's heart.
This is probably the last storm in the Land of Hidden Swallows, right? In the blink of an eye, I was already facing the biggest challenge of our time.
What makes people feel even more depressed is that although they are exhausted and worried, they are still enjoying it, and every cell in their body seems to be shouting and boiling with this future rainstorm! , Lao Tzu is not originally this.
The people of the times just had a dream.
Twenty-six years have passed a thousand years later, more than ten years of books, seven or eight girls, dozens of fights, this dream of peace and peace is too boring.
So I woke up and turned back to this place of the Swallow? Turned back this millennium ago? Han Shizhong hugged his arms.
His face was like Qin, but he looked at the dark clouds piling up in the north with hatred.
He suddenly muttered, "Straight lady thief."
I'm here, Jurchen shoes will! "In the midst of the rainstorm and lightning, on the beacon tower of the Great Wall in Gubeikou, the lightning reflected the figures of Yue Fei and Ma Kuan in armor.
This rain seems to be heavier than the summer thunderstorms, and it is pouring down on the head and face.
The two young and heroic officers of the Great Song Dynasty just stood on top of the ancient Great Wall, and lightning flashes seemed to be flying and exploding in front of their eyes.
Every time the light goes out, the mountains and rivers north of the Great Wall are reflected, and the countless tragic battles that have taken place on this defense line in the past thousand years seem to come with this torrential rain.
Yue Fei raised his voice: "Our sentry team has been released, this heavy rain, I'm afraid we will have to suffer a little."
What I'm most worried about is not this, the rain is so heavy, and the autumn rain is not better than the summer rain, but I am afraid that it will last for a long time.
The communication report will be greatly affected, in case the Jurchen Lezi sneaks through while the rain is coming, don't let us miss it! Ma Kuo looked back at him, and the rain kept sliding down his face.
In such a difficult environment, Ma Kuo is as willing as ever.
Bianliang has been up and down for several years.
This kind of frontier soldier is what he really longs for! "Brother Yue, what do you mean?" Yue Fei wiped the rain on his face.
smiled: "It's boring for us to guard this old camp."
In such weather, where can we still play the role of inter-living communication? Why don't we each get a whistle and go out to inspect and pull down! Let's see if the Jurchen Lezi will take advantage of the rainstorm to join in the fun! Before Ma Kuo could speak, he saw a figure crawling up behind them, hand and foot, who was Fang Teng, who came with them to endure hardships.
His clothes were in tatters, and he was wrapped in a cloak that drenched him from the rain.
He didn't answer when he climbed up, but just looked up at the raging weather, looked at the scene inside and outside the Great Wall in this rainstorm and lightning, and cheered: "Happy!" Bianliang Jinming Pond.
How can you see this? We have not seen this Great Wall scene for a hundred years, so we have forgotten the Qin Feng and Han Yun, and forgotten the territory of our ancestors in the border fortress, so that we can have descendants today! Bianliang is rich and beautiful, enough to lose the country, I hope the official family can come here to see! Yue Fei and Ma Kuo both smiled knowingly, Fang Teng, this Bianliangzi, getting along these days has been very impressive.
has a good brain, and there are many pertinent suggestions in military affairs.
And can endure hardships and let go of the * body.
It's like another Xiao Yan.
No one knows how this kid came to be.
Fang Teng looked back at them.
smiled: "Ready to go out?" Such a torrential rain.
It was the opportunity for the Jurchen Lezi to sneak over, and the center couldn't receive the news from the pass anyway, so the lower officials rushed over, for fear that the two of you would leave me behind.
This Great Wall, Xia Guan can't defend it alone! Yue Fei whistled, raised his arms and shouted: "Go!" Let's see if the Jurchen Lezi dares to come! We're here and we're ready to die here! With that, he turned around and got off the beacon without looking back.
Ma Kuo smiled, and the other party arched his hand: "Lord Fang, just follow me all the way to patrol the sentry, how can I protect your safety, my lord" As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance south, and whispered in his heart: "Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao, have you seen the dark clouds and lightning piled up in the north?" What exactly is your choice? In the heavy rain and lightning, a large group of people and horses winding between the mountain roads were also reflected in the flickering shadows.
It also illuminates the traces of the Great Wall hovering over the top of the mountain in the distance, and the beacon towers are empty here.
It seems to be waiting for the return of the Han soldiers who guarded here thousands of years ago.
This large group of people numbered in the thousands.
No flags, pure cavalry.
Among them, hundreds of stout warriors with money rat tails and fur hats were even more one-man and two-horse, and chairs were huge bow bags.
He just bowed his head and rode his horse towards the south.
The mountain road was rough and the rain was pouring down, but it didn't slow them down.
This group is in the center.
It is Dong Dalang's tall figure.
He wasn't wearing armor, just wrapped in a cloak, squinting at the sight ahead.
He muttered to himself, and he didn't know what he was muttering.
Suddenly caught up with the rear and rode a few times.
The first person was the silver keshu, he didn't wear the golden armor that showed his identity, he was in the same leather robe and hat as the Jurchen warriors around him, and he was holding half a soaked Hu cake in his hand, chewing it heavily.
rushed over and greeted casually: "The front is Gubeikou?" This is the Great Wall built by the Han people? It's really magnificent! Dong Dalang turned around and saluted respectfully: "It's hard work!" Follow us to eat this hard work, in front of us is the Gubeikou, above is the Great Wall, after here, is the land of Youyan! Yin Keshu waved his hand indifferently: "We are really good men, what is this hard work?" You can chase the enemy for hundreds of miles without food, not to mention that you don't lack anything now! This Great Wall of the Han people is really remarkable, it is really hard to imagine that it can be built by manpower" It's just that," he sneered: "Without athletes to defend it, no matter how strong the fortress is, what use will it come in?" Yin Keshu threw away the cake in his hand.
His eyes were like electricity, and he waved his hand violently: "Break!" ”
