Chapter 55: Ask the palaces to lend a helping hand

Xie Youyi stood in front of the map, frowning at the chaotic arrows. Genius remembers the first three or five in a second

The map in front of Xie Youyi is full of mountains and rivers, rivers and lakes, and the error is accurate to within ten meters. After studying for a while, Xie Youyi immediately gave instructions, "The first division is responsible for cleaning up, the third and fourth divisions enter the Hengjiang Mountains to pursue the remnants of Yuan Heng, and the second division, the fifth division, and the sixth division advance eastward and immediately attack Yunling Pass!" ”

Knowing that Dingjiangyan burst the embankment, Yuanheng slaughtered the city of Pingzhou, and the Shengshang Kuai Malay Book, he must take Yunzhou, Xie You's eyes almost never lived together.

After discussing with his staff officers for a long time, everyone agreed not to directly cross the river to attack Yunling Pass, even if the embankment was in favor of the Southern Dynasties, but the casualties were too great. Yunling Pass is dangerous, now the flood is fierce, fortunately Dingzhou is high and far away from the river to survive, although Yunling Pass was flooded, but the garrison on the pass occupied the best geographical location, and it was not flooded, and it was not shot into a sieve by the Northern Korean army in the past, and now the intelligence officers of the Southern Dynasty were flooded in Yunzhou, and could not provide information about whether the garrison around Yunzhou had disaster relief, reducing the distribution of troops.

Xie Youyi made a decision immediately, 30,000 horses lined up on the bank of the Dingjiang River, practiced day and night to confuse the Northern Dynasty army, and the rest of the men and horses set off at night, swords into sheaths, horses' hooves were wrapped in cloth, and 100,000 troops hurried west to Yezhou.

Wangbu repaired the Dingjiangyan strongly, and such a heavy rain fell for more than two months, which was the heaviest rainfall in the Southern Dynasties in 50 years, and it only washed out three-fifths of the Dingjiangyan.

Xie Youyi immediately ordered the construction of a pontoon bridge, and the army crossed the river and attacked Pingzhou. Thinking of the tens of thousands of compatriots who died in the city, the soldiers of the Southern Dynasty were stunned and hated the same enemy, and the 5,000 death squads braved the rain of arrows to break through the gap in the southern city gate, and the army swarmed in.

Yuan Heng was complacent about his great achievements, and heard that Xie You led less than 50,000 horses to attack the city, and for the enemy who was pressing step by step, he only ordered 60,000 local troops under his command to defend the city gate, and his descendants continued to search for land with 20,000 horses.

Seeing that Yuan Heng was stuffed with gems, pearls, gold and silver in his pockets, the local army stomped his feet red, but Commander Yuan gave instructions not to enter the inner city, and 50,000 of the 60,000 people were indignant, the death squad was them, the vanguard army was them, and they were the ones who suffered the greatest casualties in the attack on Pingzhou, but the Yuan Heng family, who had no strength at all, instead sat on the profits, and they were so rich that they didn't catch a piece of silver! Said that they would let them enter the city first, but as soon as the city was broken, Yuan Heng pretended that the enemy in the city was frantically counterattacking, it was too dangerous, and the local brothers had suffered too many casualties, so it was good to stay behind, and he was not afraid of danger, and personally took 20,000 people into the city to fight to the death with the enemy, and strive to take Pingzhou in one fell swoop.

The three local armies of the Northern Dynasties could only watch as Yuan Heng's descendants entered the city and carried out a frenzied massacre, and the floor tiles were turned over and looted.

In the face of the aggressive Southern Korean army, the local army of the Northern Dynasty was defeated in World War II and discouraged. The Southern Dynasty army broke the city, and Yuan Heng began to regret his carelessness and underestimated the enemy, and hurriedly ran into the Hengjiang Mountains with 20,000 horses in a panic along the small gate.

The Hengjiang Mountains stretch for thousands of miles, the ditches are deep and the forests are dense, and the Southern Dynasty army can't find them for more than three days, so don't think about finding them.

The local army of the Northern Dynasties should be glad that they did not carry out the massacre with Yuan Heng into the city.

In the face of 50,000 prisoners of war, Xie Youyi was very humane and asked them to build a city full of holes under labor reform, and then surrender if they could surrender, sell for money if they could sell for money, and exchange for ransom, but this was not his main concern.

As for the 20,000 Northern Korean troops who slaughtered the city, Xie You ordered that the third and fourth divisions must catch people and kill them on the spot, leaving no one behind.

There are different historical theories about why Yuan Heng slaughtered the city, and the most authoritative opinion is that Yuan Heng was afraid that he would not be able to control the prisoners of war. Grain and grass are limited, the troops are limited, and the Northern Korean support does not know when it will come, so he can only kill the captured Southern Korean soldiers to reduce the burden. Yuan Heng relied on heavy money to mobilize his subordinates to be loyal to himself, these people have always been cruel, the reputation is extremely notorious, as soon as they entered the city to face the resistance of the civilians, they were murderous, did not hesitate to raise the butcher's knife, all the way to kill the red eye, so they created a horrific massacre of the city, further intensified the contradiction between the north and the south.

Xie Youyi is mainly worried about the two major things now, one is to catch Yuan Heng, complete the death order of the saint, and cut this beast with a thousand knives, and the other is to take advantage of Shengxi to take Yunling Pass!

When Wei Ning learned that Xie You had taken Pingzhou, he immediately led the national defense army to converge, and the two armies rushed towards Yunling Pass.

The good news reached the capital, the whole dynasty was boiling, and the recent gloom and gloom were swept away.

So the Son of Heaven issued an edict to hold an uncovered meeting in Yuanji Temple, first, to overkill the soldiers who died in battle, second, to eliminate the karmic consequences caused by the Dingjiangyan embankment, and third, to give relief to the victims who were exiled to the capital.

Gantang Palace.

Because of the rainy day, the concubines of the palace have gathered in the palace and have not dispersed, they are gossiping in twos and threes, mentioning the victory on the front line, everyone exhaled and congratulated.

Knowing the victory, Yan Zhaoyi immediately told Xie Changxian the exciting news. Xie Changxian's dark eyes instantly glowed, and his little face flushed with excitement.

His father won the battle and was a great hero of the Southern Dynasty!

Because the Uncovered Conference is about to be held, Concubine Rong called on all the concubines to lend a helping hand, and give a little love if there is a little love!

So everyone responded, some palaces rushed to make clothes overnight, and some palaces carried out love donations, and they were willing to do their best.

Today, everyone came and brought their own palace almsgiving.

Xianchi Palace received the call of Concubine Rong, and Taxue was about to refuse that Niangniang was not seen, but Xie Zhaorong heard it and hurriedly put his hands to stop it.

When Xie Zhaorong came in, he didn't expect that there would be so many concubines there.

Except for Concubine Rong, Wu Shuyuan, Yan Zhaoyi, and Chen Jieyu, she didn't know the beautiful clothes and flowers in front of her.

Oh, there are a lot of concubines, there are more than a dozen. (Xiao Yue: 14 concubines are also called more?? )

Because there are few concubines in the Nanzhao harem, all the concubines occupy one place, each takes care of their own affairs, does not disturb each other, and lives separately, which also seems to be a bit popular in the harem.

In the sixteenth year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Gantang Palace has never been as lively as today, people gathered so together, I heard that Rong Guifei engaged in charity activities, and the palace maids and eunuchs all came to collect donations with their two copper coins and a broken silver.

Seeing Xie Zhaorong coming in, there was silence for a moment, and there was an affectionate greeting again, Wu Shuyuan hurriedly got up and took her hand and said with a smile, "I was just about to say goodbye, but fortunately I didn't leave, and I was able to meet my sister." As he spoke, he introduced her to the concubines of the palace.

When Xie Zhaorong lived in Xie Mansion, Wu Shuyuan's cousin came to talk to her when she was fine, so Xie Zhaorong was not very repulsive to this Wu Shuyuan, and when he saw her enthusiasm, he couldn't resist.

After saluting each other, Concubine Rong smiled and gave a seat, "Zhaorong Qing has lost a lot." ”

Xie Zhaorong bowed his head slightly and replied, "My body is slightly ill, and I am afraid that I will be infected in the palace, so I won't go out for a long time." I heard that the mother was generous, and I came to disturb her. The front-line soldiers worked hard, contributed to the country, and the victims of the disaster in Beijing were displaced, and the righteous deeds of the mother were immeasurable. ”

Concubine Rong smiled, "Today's income is very rich, and I rely on your sisters a lot, and it is natural to share your worries for the king." ”

Wu Shuyuan smiled, "I'm an uneducated, my mother wants money, I'll pay for it, as for copying scriptures and reciting scriptures or something, don't look for me, my words, it's really a waste of pen and ink, if you incinerate it to heaven, God has to thunder." ”

And all the people laughed.

Rong Guifei smiled, "Zhaorong writes well, you have to work hard." ”

Chen Jieyu sat there for a long time, and when she saw that everyone was surrounding Xie Zhaorong to show her goodwill, she was already dissatisfied, and when she heard that Rong Guifei asked Xie Zhaorong to copy the scriptures, she seemed to smile and said, "The saint personally teaches him to write, can he write badly." ”

Xie Zhaorong sank his eyelids, bowed his head slightly, and did not answer.

Wu Shuyuan hurriedly smiled, "I talked about it for a long time, I donated it for a long time, I haven't figured it out yet, what is the uncovered conference?" ”

Concubine Rong smiled and said, "I don't know very well. Zhaorong has read thousands of books, and he must know. ”

Xie Zhaorong didn't want to talk more, but when he saw Niangniang asking himself by name, he had to explain, "Inclusive and unhindered, it is unconcealed." The Uncovered Assembly is a kind of Lent held by Buddhism to make good connections and pray for blessings. ”

Wu Shuyuan nodded and sighed after hearing this, "It's fresh." My sister is really knowledgeable. In the past, Patriarch Bodhidharma came to Middle-earth and lectured with His Majesty all night, and when he heard that Zhaorong was listening quietly beside him, he must have participated in a lot of subtle Buddhism. ”

After everyone dispersed, Xie Zhaorong hadn't left yet, Concubine Rong knew that she still had something to say, and when she saw that everyone was gone, she asked, "Is Zhaorong still in trouble?" ”

Seeing Concubine Rong ask, Xie Zhaorong hesitated for a while and said, "I want to burn incense." ”

Concubine Rong smiled slightly, "It's rare that Zhaorong wants to pray for blessings." It's better to take you out through the uncovered assembly, and you can ask for incense. ”

Xie Zhaorong paused and asked, "Holy Lord, will you also go the day after tomorrow?" ”

Since the last time Xiao Yue brushed her sleeves away with a gloomy face, she hadn't seen him for half a month.

Rong Guifei smiled, "That's nature." The people are waiting for the Holy Lord to preach the scriptures and surpass the souls. ”

Hearing that Xiao Yue was also going, Xie Zhaorong shook his head and said, "Then don't trouble Niangniang." ”

Concubine Rong thought for a while and said, "If Zhaorong doesn't want to trouble, he will quietly leave the palace with me that day." I emptied the main hall of Yuanji Temple, Zhaorong asked for incense by himself, and came back quietly. ”

Xie Zhaorong heard Concubine Rong say this, got up and lifted her skirt and bent her knees, "Thank you, Niangniang." ”

As he was talking, Xiao Manzi reported that the saint was walking towards Gantang Palace, and Xie Zhaorong said goodbye.
