Chapter Eighty-Two: The Getaway
Although the retreat was ordered, the post road forest was still several hundred meters away, and as soon as the backfire army was defeated and retreated, Qin Fan urgently ordered the whole army to pursue, and did not return to the army until it was outside the forest, and the backfire lost 130,000 heads and retreated.
"The whole army is attacking the city!"
Li Ming Han Feng led the army directly from the city gate to the city wall to launch a fierce attack on the remaining three gates, the golden fire cavalry quickly killed the Yamen of the state capital from the main road, the archers led by Qi Yue marched from outside the city to the three gates, providing long-range support for the infantry, and Yue Ziyun led a large group of lancers to infiltrate the streets and alleys to strangle the retreating Jin soldiers.
More than 10,000 golden soldiers had been wiped out when the backfire attacked the city before, but at this moment, Qin Fan omitted the siege step with the greatest loss and smashed Huanglong.
Xiao Xie rushed to the yamen of the state capital, only to see hundreds of sword-wielding guards in silver armor protecting an official in the center wearing chain armor with a panicked expression.
When the official saw Xiao Xie approaching step by step with a long sword covered with blood, he immediately shouted inwardly: "You and other thieves dare to openly rebel!" Attack my state capital! Aren't you afraid of the Datong Mansion officials and soldiers being killed! ”
"Humph!" Xiao Xie sneered: "This is the world of my Han family, it should be me to strangle you!" Hurry up and arrest me, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword! ”
"I ...... I am the governor of Dajin Fengzhou, and if you kill me, you will kill the official of the dynasty! It's too late for you to withdraw now, I advise you...... Kindness ......"
This Lord Zhizhou's legs trembled, his speech was incoherent, and he almost fainted.
"Give it to me! Strangle the enemy and take the seal! ”
Xiao Xie shouted, and the Golden Fire Cavalry directly dismounted and rushed up, even though these Silver Guards were sixth-order troops, but they had to compete with the same sixth-order, but the armor was several times tougher, and the Golden Fire Cavalry after the bonus of his subordinates was not half a point.
Xiao Xie san stepped on the white marble ladder at the entrance of the state palace in two steps, the cold light flashed, and several guards around Zhizhou all collapsed to the ground, and the copper-handled green steel sword in his hand fell to the ground with a few clicks, and at the same time, several ingots of silver fell from his body. If Qin Fan was present, I am afraid that he would cry, in the past, the sergeants below the fifth order would explode at most two copper plates, and this time the killing of the sixth-order NPC finally exploded the silver......
"The general spares his life...... Poof......"
In the face of Zhizhou's begging for mercy, Xiao Xie did not hesitate for a minute, and directly pierced his heart with a sword. With the fall of Toyosu Zhishu, an ancient yellowed thread-bound book fell out of the cuff.
Xiao Xie picked it up curiously, only to see that it was written: Taoist Anecdotes [Getaway].
Qin Fan soon heard the system prompt of Fengzhou's exile, and when he arrived at the state capital, he happened to see Xiao Xie rushing over.
"Childe! I killed Zhizhou and seized this from him. Xiao Xie handed over the book.
Qin Fan took it curiously and looked at it, it seemed that he had a sense of déjà vu, and he suddenly remembered that the scroll that he had found Lu Diaoying before seemed to be called a strange anecdote, and the name of this book was a bit similar.
Qin Fan's gaze shifted to the book, and the attribute surfaced.
Taoist Anecdotes [Getaway]: Legend has it that Taoist Zhuang Zhou once turned into a butterfly in a dream, traveled all over the world, shuttled through the ancient and modern times, and left a wandering tour of the world. Legend has it that this strange book hides the avenue, the charm is out of the ordinary, and there are descendants who know its words, understand its aspirations, and become immortals.
"it!" Qin Fan was stunned, what kind of operation is this? Although I didn't understand the meaning of this attribute too much, it was very good to look at.
He simply slapped it directly and used the book, and just like the previous book of heavenly anecdotes, a line of blue text appeared.
"The eternal high wind is resting, and when will Nanhua Miaodao be repaired. Who can build into the public wall, such as the moon tower by the river......"
Qin Fan read it slowly, thinking carefully in his heart, but he didn't come up with a reason.
"Well, let's put it ...... first."
Soon Qi Yue's archers also entered the city, and the remnants of the entire Fengzhou City were wiped out, and all the troops were counted, and the current loss of 30,000 lancers, 4,000 archers, and 20,000 infantry suffered great losses in the battle of the city wall, leaving only more than 3,000 people.
As for the Golden Fire Cavalry, the losses were not large, only about 2,000, which were basically lost under the city and during the attack on the palace.
"Xiao Xie, you first take the Golden Fire Cavalry back to defend Hongmu County, I'm afraid that someone will take the opportunity to sneak attack, and the rest of the people will be stationed in Fengzhou and stand by!"
"The last general understands!"
Fengzhou, as a second-tier city, has one day more in exile than Hongmu County, and Qin Fan did not dare to be careless during the three-day exile period, and it was already night after the battle, so he transferred all the catapults and rocket vehicles in Lu Tielu Eagle and their inventory overnight in case of emergency.
Then he rushed back to Tianya Town.
At night, when the breeze was blowing by the stream, Du Zicheng was putting a large lump of mud into a pit full of charcoal fire on the ground, and in the mud was a fat chicken smeared with rich sauce.
"Lao Du's craftsmanship is getting better and better, it's called flower chicken, but I've never eaten it."
Qin Fan suddenly felt that the name Du Zicheng was very meaningful, Du Zicheng ...... Stomach support......
"Thank you Childe for the compliment......"
As he was talking, Fan Yixian walked over and said to Qin Fan: "Childe is so Yaxing, but it is really touching to ask the old man to come and enjoy the food together so late." ”
Qin Fan knew that the old man was joking, but he also replied: "It is the honor of the juniors to invite the seniors to enjoy the food, but there is one thing that still needs to be referred to by the seniors." ”
"Look, I knew that this called flower chicken was not so easy to eat......" Fan Yixian touched his beard with a smile.
Qin Fan quickly read out the poem, Fan Yixian listened carefully, and said: "This is a poem written by Li Bai, a great poet of Tang Kaiyuan, Qinglian Jushi, and the poem expresses his praise and worship of the Taoist Zhuangzi, and yearns for Zhuangzi's way of wandering and free nature. ”
"I see, but what does this have to do with finding the descendants of the legendary Zhuangzi?" Qin Fan asked.
Fan Yixian gently fanned the feather fan and said: "Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty admired Taoism quite much, and he still attached great importance to Lao Zhuang, and even personally annotated the Tao Te Ching, ordered the world's scholars to study it, and added the article "Lao Tzu". Among them, Zhuang Zhou's "Zhuangzi" is also greatly worshipped, it is rumored that Zhuangzi once lived in seclusion in Nanhua Mountain, so Xuanzong in the Tianbao period edict Zhuang Zhou as Nanhua Zhenren, the book "Zhuangzi" for Nanhua Zhenjing. I think this Nanhua Mountain may be the place where this strange story is mentioned. ”
Qin Fan suddenly brightened up, and hurriedly asked, "Then where is this Nanhua Mountain?" ”
"South of Haiyuan County, Xixia...... It was a place with pleasant scenery and abundant water and grass, but the road was difficult and dangerous, and it was two thousand miles away. ”
After listening to Fan Yixian's words, Qin Fan's thoughts seemed to have crossed the mountains and deserts, and crossed into the rich grasslands and beautiful mountains of Ningxia.
"Haha! It's called the flower chicken unearthed! ”
Du Zicheng's shouting woke Qin Fan up, and as Du Zicheng cracked the hardened mud shell with the back of the knife, a special smell of oil and lotus leaves wafted into his nose......
"Oh mom, it's so fragrant......"
