Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Detour

On the seventh day of the sixth month of the fourth year of Chengyuan, the military tents outside the city of Xingyang were densely packed, during which there were countless soldiers and generals, and there were more cavalry galloping constantly.

Xingyang City is in front, the banner of Ankang Mountain is hanging on the city gate, next to it is the body of the prefect of Xingyang City, the city gate is wide open, and the city is empty as if it is a dead city, but Ankang Mountain did not enter the city, sitting in the main tent and crying loudly.

He certainly wasn't grieving over the hanging prefect's corpse and the dead city.

"I deserve death." Ankang Mountain's tears continued to gush out, wetting his beard and brocade robe, and his hand beat his chest heavily, "I was still a step too late, and my Majesty was poisoned." ”

On both sides of the tent, there were more than a dozen generals kneeling, accompanied by loud crying and beating their chests: "It's me who is incompetent." ”

The master and slave blamed each other, and under the persuasion of the two civilian officials accompanying the army, Ankang Mountain stopped crying bitterly, and the strong servants held a golden shallow basin silk scarf for Ankang Mountain to clean his face.

There was no crying in the tent, and the atmosphere was quiet and stagnant, especially when Ankang Mountain's eyes looked at the middle, the wide tent seemed a little crowded, except for the standing generals, there was also a corpse lying on the ground.

These corpses are the generals who have recently died in battle, and their positions are high and low, familiar and unfamiliar, and An Kangshan's gaze stopped on Sun Zhe.

"The White-robed Army?" Ankang Mountain Road, stood up and walked over.

"It is composed of stragglers in Huazhou, who wear white robes over their military uniforms in Daxia and consider themselves white-robed soldiers." A general leaned over and bowed his head: "The leader is the Xiang clan of Taiyuan Mansion, Xiang Nan." ”

The world is so big, and Taiyuan Mansion is so small, lest An Kangshan don't know who the Xiang family is, another general hurriedly added: "Li Feng'an's son-in-law, Li Feng'an's nephew of Xiang Yun, the eighth general." ”

An Kangshan sighed and remembered: "The kid who escaped when he killed Cui Zhenglai that day." ”

Yes, I thought that this kid was not a concern at the time, but I didn't expect to pull up a military horse in a short period of time.

"Li Feng'an's vision is still good." An Kangshan praised, looking down at Sun Zhe's corpse.

Sun Zhe's body was hung in the city by Xiang Nan for a few days, Fan Yangjun snatched it back, and then transported it here, the corpse was rotting and terrifying in the summer, and the smell was disgusting.

Ankang Mountain did not cover his nose and looked at the decomposing corpse: "There are two fatal wounds?" ”

"Xiang Nan with a gun." A general hurriedly replied, "Sun Zhe was shot in the abdomen and an arrow in the throat, and the arrow was shot by Zhenwujun, and Sun Zhe was attacked in the back at that time." ”

"Zhenwu Army." An Kangshan chewed these three words in his mouth.

Another general leaned over and knelt down: "Dadu Governor, it was the Zhenwu Army that broke into Yizhou, so he fought with Sun Zhe stationed in Surabaya, and Tian Cheng also died in the hands of the Zhenwu Army, and it was Wu Ya'er's wife who led the troops." ”

It's these two of them again! An Kangshan pressed the silk scarf in his hand on his face, the tears that had been stopped rolled down, and he cried loudly again: "I deserve to die, and I am one step too late, so that His Royal Highness King Zhao was also poisoned by them." ”

The generals in the tent accompanied the crying again, some pounded the ground and some hit the ground with their heads, competing for responsibility, crying is also really crying, crying is their own and uneasy, Ankang Mountain treats the generals generously, eating, drinking, having fun and rewarding are all arbitrary, and the looting on the march road is owned by everyone, but at the same time it is also very cruel, once asked about military law, the death is not their own, often implicating family members.

Ankangshan is crying so much now, I don't know if they can cry later, let's cry while they can cry now.

"Governor Dadu, Your Majesty and King Zhao have been poisoned one after another, we have to enter Beijing as soon as possible." The civil official standing on the side persuaded each other again, and soothed Ankangshan's grief in a soft voice, "Cui Gang took Wu Ya'er and these thieves to Linzhou. ”

An Kangshan's face was full of tears: "Your Majesty has been poisoned, what else am I going to do in Beijing, I am going to chase those traitors!" ”

Another civil official hurriedly said: "Dadu Governor, there is still a prince in the capital, and the Dadu Governor can't abandon the prince." ”

The previous civil official also said: "Dadu Governor, only when you enter the capital can you tell the world about the crimes of these thieves and avenge King Zhao for Your Majesty." ”

The capital is where the son of Daxia is located, standing there, it is the orthodoxy of Daxia, Ankangshan took the silk scarf off his face: "Pull out the camp and enter Beijing." ”

The dead and alive generals who were crying on the ground immediately got up and responded loudly.

"Still." A general hesitated and said, "There are some problems near Liangcheng. ”

The fastest and most suitable way to enter Beijing is through Liangcheng.

"What's wrong with Liang Cheng."

"Isn't He Qian in Liangcheng?"

The other generals said one after another, they didn't want to stay in the tent any longer, and Ankang Mountain's sadness was almost uncontrollable.

"He Qian is in Liangcheng, but the Zhenwu Army has also arrived, and there is another counselor named Han Xu, inciting the surrounding Bingma Prefecture to obey the Zhenwu Army." The letter received by the general was stubborn, and he didn't talk about it now, and when he got there, Ankang Mountain saw it himself, and he was dead," they also threatened to wait for the arrival of the Grand Governor. ”

It's the Zhenwu Army again.

"I originally thought that if Lee Bong-an didn't die, he would be my biggest trouble." Ankang Mountain said, "I didn't expect him to die, and another Zhenwu army appeared." ”

He stretched out his hand to signal to the strong servant, and the two strong servants worked together to bring the Fang Tian halberd on the side.

"Then...."An Kangshan took the heavy halberd, "bypass it, wait for me to enter Beijing to serve orthodoxy, and the traitors and thieves will be punished by the world." ”

There is no need to entangle with them now, and when the general trend has been decided, whether it is the Zhenwu Army or the White-robed Army, it is difficult for the ants to resist the four seasons.

However, Ankang Mountain dropped the halberd on his side, and the entire camp ground trembled.

"Your Majesty, King Zhao died tragically." His voice was choked, and he was about to cry again, "Let Xingyang and these thieves and officials go to the funeral." ”

.....

.....

Smoke seemed to break through the sky in the distance, and the ground shook for a long time.

High in the city, in the undulating valley, in the ruins of the ruined villages, the solemn and lurking soldiers and horses all clenched their swords and guns, and their bodies tightened.

But until the second day, there was no army of 100,000.

"Lord Han!" Standing on the hill, Han Xu watched as two soldiers rushed over, "Ankang Mountain bypassed Liangcheng and went to the capital from the south. ”

Some of the officers next to him didn't know whether to be sad or happy, and they were even more hesitant whether they should immediately transfer troops to pursue.

Han Xu laughed: "He is afraid of us, and Ankang Mountain is not fearless, today I am afraid that we will bypass it, and we will be able to let them escape in fear when we meet on the battlefield in the future!" ”

Tomorrow? That is, not to fight now?

"Dr. Han." A general hesitated, "You can't let the thief enter Beijing, let's chase and block it." ”

Han Xu looked at him and said, "After catching up, can you stop them?" ”

There are more than 100,000 troops in Ankang Mountain, and now there are less than 10,000 people here, including the Fengwei Army, the Zhenwu Army, and other stragglers, and several generals glanced at each other, of course they can't.

"I'm not afraid, I donated this body to get rid of thieves." A general said solemnly.

Han Xu smiled indifferently: "Do you know that you can't do it?" Don't be stupid, there is no point in giving your life. ”

The generals looked at each other, not knowing and not daring to say anything.

Han Xu looked into the distance: "Your Majesty is no longer here, the chaos in the world is a foregone conclusion, at this time, this matter is not to fight for the day, but to look at the long-term, the real courage is not to dare to fight, but to dare not retreat, there is no need to hit the stone with an egg, what we have to do is to strengthen ourselves, gather the strength of the world, and set things right." ”

The generals should say in unison, and Han Xu's expression was also different from before, he was in awe before, but now he is more convinced.

This lord of the court was not what they imagined, he was brave and wise, like a beacon.

"Lord Han." A female voice was heard.

Han Xu, who was brave and wise, frowned slightly, this woman really never left, he turned his head to look at the bottom of the hill, the woman did not bring an entourage, and walked over with an umbrella.

She noticed Han Xu's gaze and lifted the umbrella, even if the black cloth covered her face, Han Xu seemed to be able to see a bright smile.

Han Xu sighed, the extravagance of the capital had disappeared, and he was still inevitably obsessed.

Seeing the woman coming, the generals on both sides took a few steps back respectfully.

Unlike the generals in other places, Xuanwu Dao is close to Huainan Dao, and they are familiar with the Zhenwu Army.

So when the Zhenwu army suddenly killed in the melee that night, shouting that the Zhenwu army of Dou County ordered the non-thieves not to kill the non-thieves to retreat, they did not hesitate too much and stopped the attack.

And compared with the Zhenwu Army in the capital, they are more familiar with the Zhenwu Army in Dou County, and they are more familiar with Mrs. Wu.

The Zhenwu army in Dou County did not come from Mobei, but Mrs. Wu recruited the people in Dou County to form an army, and the Zhenwu army composed of these people repelled the rebellious soldiers and rescued the Guangzhou Mansion, so that the rebels of Andezhong in Zhejiang Province avoided it.

Is this the power of Zhenwu Army, or is it the power of Mrs. Wu? They stepped back and quietly looked at the woman.

Li Minglou stood beside Han Xu.

"Lord Han, Ankang Mountain has bypassed Liangcheng and headed for the capital." She said, "It's all the credit of Lord Han. ”

Han Xu shook his head: "The young lady praised it falsely. ”

"There's no false praise." Li Minglou said, "Because of Lord Han's presence, soldiers and horses can be gathered near Liangcheng, and everyone is united, so that Ankang Mountain is afraid." "It's a little gloomy," and it also saved the people here from being poisoned. ”

With the news of the detour of the Ankang Mountain army, there were casualties among the officers and soldiers near Xingyang, and the prefect of Xingyang was killed after the city was lost, and Ankang Mountain made a violent corpse at the city gate, and lied to the soldiers and people who had surrendered that the winner could live, so that the soldiers and people could kill each other and watch for fun, and finally ten thousand arrows were fired together, and the captured soldiers and civilians were burned.

About six or seven thousand people were killed.

The once prosperous Xingyang is like a hell on earth.

Han Xu was sad and angry: "Ankang Mountain Thieves are really beasts. ”

Han Xu's serious injury had not yet healed, he barely stood for a moment, his body shook with emotion, and Li Minglou hurriedly stretched out his hand to help: "Lord Han mourns." ”

Han Xu flicked his sleeves and retreated, avoiding Li Minglou's hand, and sat back on the chair, coughing with his hand over his mouth.

Li Minglou was swept away and didn't care, and followed him over and stood in front of the chair: "The Ankang Mountain army is going around, we can't stop it, but Liangcheng still has to be recaptured." ”

Liangcheng is the place where Xuanwu Dao is governed, and the imperial court occupies it, which is still very stable and can better unite the scattered soldiers and horses of Xuanwudao.

"The Ankang Mountain army made a detour, but left a lot of soldiers and horses for Liangcheng He Qian." A general said beside him, and after speaking, he said again, how did Mrs. Wu Shao not know.

In front of this woman, he was ashamed of his cowardice.

Li Minglou didn't disdain his reminder, and nodded: "Ankang Mountain is because he wants to enter Beijing, and he has no intention of fighting with us, but the Xuanwudao rebels are still bound to win." ”

Han Xu lay on the chair, frowned slightly and asked, "How many soldiers and horses does Liang Cheng have?" ”

"About fourteen thousand." The other will be an official.

Han Xu nodded, there were more soldiers and horses than them: "Although He Qian has many soldiers and horses, it is not easy to take back Liangcheng, but it is not so easy for him to help us, take your time, and the future will be long." ”

When the words fell, I heard the woman next to her also say yes, yes, and then looked at him, or her eyes never left him.

"With Lord Han here, the soldiers and horses don't have to worry." She praised.

Han Xu was not sitting very steadily on the chair, this woman leaned against the chair, holding the handle with her hand, and was so close to a foreign man, didn't anyone stop her?

Han Xu looked at both sides, the generals were respectful, and the soldiers were solemn.

"The young lady praised it falsely...", he politely detached.

Li Minglou shook his head: "It's not a false praise." ”

She looked at the middle-aged man sitting on the chair in front of her, she had never seen it in her previous life, and she had never come into contact with it, and she thought it was an ordinary court official.

I didn't expect Han Xu to be such a brave and resourceful person, his momentum can be like thunder, and he can moisten things silently like a spring breeze and drizzle.

First look at Yingchen soldiers' belief in him, and then look at Han Xu sitting on a chair and wandering around the city in the past few days, it can be said that there is a hundred responses.

It's a pity that such a person died in the conspiracy of a few petty officials and soldiers in his previous life, just like his father.

Fortunately, he survived this life.

must let him live well, such a person will change the fate of many people.

"With Lord Han here, Xuanwudao will definitely be revitalized." Li Ming said.

The black cloth covered his face densely, but it couldn't cover the scorching sight, Han Xu moved to the other side of the back of the chair, he didn't want to discuss the topic of soldiers and horses proclaiming martial arts, and coughed lightly: "Young Lady Wu, when will you go back to Wudu?" The emperor's order is in his body, and he can't delay it for too long. ”
