Luoyang, the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Yuan Daguang has also come and gone many times over the years, so when he stood under the towering city wall again, Yuan Daguang suddenly felt that he had been reunited after a long absence.

The bustle outside the city gate is still the same, and the turmoil three days ago has long been subsided, but the discussion inside and outside the city has not stopped, so that the news of Luoyang's imminent emergency has gradually spread.

Yuan Daguang didn't care about these gossips, compared with Southern Liang, Yuan Daguang was more familiar with the Northern Wei Dynasty and closer to it. In the years outside the building, he is familiar with the heritage of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and a country that has stood for a hundred years without falling to the ground will not be defeated casually.

Not long after entering the city, Yuan Daguang should continue to go north.

In a flash, the moon crept up the treetops.

Luoyang was too big, and it was too difficult for Yuan Daguang to find Shen for a while, and there was no good place to go after thinking about it, so he simply found a cheap inn and stayed temporarily.

The shopkeeper of the inn is a kind old man, although he is old, Yuan Daguang can see that he was also a martial artist in his early years, so he has the strength of a martial artist between his gestures.

When the old shopkeeper saw Yuan Daguang coming to the door, he subconsciously took a few more looks.

Although all kinds of people in Luoyang can see it, there are still few masters.

The old shopkeeper glanced Yuan Daguang up and down, Yuan Daguang didn't realize it, and said straight after slowly walking in: "The shopkeeper still has a room and me, and the lowest price is fine."

The old shopkeeper laughed when he heard this, "Yes, why not. I'm a shop, and there's not much else, but there are cheap rooms."

Yuan Daguang knew that it was the same person when he heard the old shopkeeper speak, and he also smiled, Yuan Daguang smiled and said, "That's good, I'm short of money, and I can't afford the big expenses."

"Do you want to go back to your room now or sit down and have a drink to relieve your fatigue, the price of my bad wine is also low." The old shopkeeper asked.

Yuan Daguang was not polite, untied his burden and sat down.

Seeing this, the old shopkeeper waved his hand and motioned for the man to bring the wine, and he immediately sat down with Yuan Daguang.

There was still herbal tea on the table for the time being, and at this time, the old shopkeeper poured a cup of tea for Yuan Daguang first, "I see that you look like a Great Wei person, but you have the softness of the southern beam up and down your body."

Sure enough, it was the old Jianghu's eyesight, and Yuan Daguang immediately said: "The shopkeeper's eyes are really poisonous, I just came back from Nanliang."

When the old shopkeeper heard this, he also followed: "During this time, the people from the rivers and lakes of Nanliang have come one after another, what's the matter, is there going to be a battle between Dawei and Nanliang Jianghu?"

Yuan Daguang took a sip of tea and rested, and then said, "When the shopkeeper was young, he was afraid that he often wandered into the rivers and lakes. You also know that if we people want to say that we are ruffians and hooligans, we can also say that we are heroes who punish evil and promote good. But no matter which point, we still have a basic concept of right and wrong. Although the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Southern Liang Dynasty are two countries, they are of the same origin, so how can there be reason not to help brothers when they are in trouble now?"

After Yuan Daguang finished speaking, he explained: "At least at the level of rivers and lakes."

The old shopkeeper is worthy of being an old Jianghu, so this means that he will know as soon as he hears it, "Although I have only asked about the affairs of the rivers and lakes for many years, I also know that it is not something that ordinary people can do to integrate the rivers and lakes of Nanliang, could it be that it was instructed by the Nanliang court?" Oh yes, I almost forgot, the old emperor of Southern Liang, Xiao Yan, has died, and the new enthronement is actually a princess, isn't this nonsense?"

In the past few days, Yuan Daguang has been busy on the road, so he doesn't know much about the affairs of Jinling, and now after listening to the words of the old shopkeeper, he knows that Xiao Yan, the old emperor of Southern Liang, has died.

Yuan Daguang said: "Shopkeeper, can you tell me more about Xiao Yan's death?"

The old shopkeeper nodded and said, "Why not? In fact, I also recently heard about this matter, Xiao Yan died suddenly, and the succession was also sudden, and the throne was passed to Xiao Xiang, the princess of Changle in Nanliang, who was a woman. I don't know the specific background of this princess, but the three dukes of Nanliang and the civil and military officials have no objections, which should be special."

When Yuan Daguang heard this, he recalled his understanding of this Changle princess when he was in Nanliang, although the two did not meet directly, she had something to do with Shen Jing.

The evaluation of Xiao Xiang in the information obtained is not

is more prominent, but looking at it now, this princess and the new female emperor are still very unusual.

Seeing Yuan Daguang pondering, the old shopkeeper didn't bother, and waited until he came back to his senses. Five

So quickly, the man returned with his drinks, one person and one small altar.

The old shopkeeper directly lifted the mud seal and poured it down, and he asked as he poured, "What is the name of the little brother, and what is his name?"

Yuan Daguang dragged the wine bowl and took a big sip before responding: "Where am I still a little brother, I am already in my early thirties and still do nothing. My name is Yuan Guang and I am from Gusu, Southern Liang."

"Aren't you really from Wei?"

Yuan Daguang waved his hand and smiled when he heard this: "It doesn't matter where the people are, I consider myself a Gusu person now, and I will be in Gusu in the future."

The old shopkeeper nodded and said, "Also, those places in Nanliang are good places to raise people, if it weren't for the worries here that I can't put down, I also want to take a look."

The old shopkeeper said a word, he and Yuan Daguang laughed, although it is not as exaggerated as a lifelong confidant, but it can also be a drinking friend.

After a few glasses of wine, they all let go a little, and the old shopkeeper asked with a smile: "The war on the northern front of Great Wei is not good now, and the Tongguan Pass in Luoyang City is also unable to be defended, why do you Liang people still have to go north to support?"

Yuan Daguang smiled: "Others don't know, I simply want to kill a few Rouran people and go back and brag about it. And the great husband was born in heaven and earth, and he should always do something."

"Do you want to show the woman?" The old shopkeeper asked naturally.

Yuan Daguang didn't deny it, and nodded, "The people of the rivers and lakes, the love of children is long, and they can't be erased and can't be avoided."

The old shopkeeper laughed when he heard this: "That's the same, if you don't talk about love and don't drink, it's nothing. This is still secondary, that is, the atmosphere of Nanliang rivers and lakes, we should learn. It has always been said that the Wei people are Kongwu, and the Liang people are soft. Now it seems that you are the ones who really dare to do things."

"Shopkeeper, that's not what I said, there are definitely a lot of Great Wei Jianghu who are willing to go north. The family and the country are in trouble, as long as someone raises their arms and shouts, I don't think anyone will want to be a turtle with a shrunken head."

The old shopkeeper didn't say much about this matter when he heard this, he took a sip of old wine, frowned, and said, "Hey, I don't know what the situation in the north is. General Yuwen, why did they lose so quickly this time?"

Seeing that the old shopkeeper was a little depressed, Yuan Daguang smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, there are so many people in the Wei Bian Army, even if they are sturdy and slashed by the Rouran dog thieves, it will take a long time. I think it's a ploy of General Yuwen and others."

Yuan Daguang's words are actually not convincing, but at the moment, there is only this kind of reason to convince others and himself.

In any case, using the people of the northwest as the price will outweigh the losses after all.

Most of the drinking parties between men love to talk about national affairs, some hate iron does not become steel, and some regret.

The old shopkeeper and Yuan Daguang are both honest people, the old shopkeeper knows that Yuan Daguang is not ordinary, as for the authenticity of the name and identity, he didn't ask much at all, just a glass of wine, and there is no future after drinking.

When Yuan Daguang found the inn, the night was already dark, probably because the inn was cheap, and it was too inconspicuous in this prosperous Luoyang City, so there were no guests at this time at night.

Yuan Daguang and the old shopkeeper drank all the way until late at night, and this meal, the old shopkeeper was naturally invited.

Yuan Daguang, who was in a hurry, was not finally able to rest until tonight, and he also decided to go to look for Shen Qing early tomorrow morning.

On the other side, Shen Kuang and Dugu Nanqiao settled down on the spot after entering the city, because of their special status, they also found a less inconspicuous inn. As for Duguhai, he hid it himself.

Because of the matter of Chuanyunguan, Luoyang is far from being so peaceful.

The news of the breaking of the Yunguan Pass was transmitted back to Luoyang, and Yuan Ke didn't have time to think about it so he mobilized 5,000 men and horses from outside the capital to rush there, and it just happened that the men and horses withdrawn from the eastern front could make up for the 5,000 gap.

At the same time, Yuan Ke also ordered the Tongguan garrison to wait for the opportunity to respond, and the imperial court did not expect the march route of Tang Mu and others.

Although Li Yan thought about this, this move was very risky, and it was almost like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, so no one paid attention to the southwest.

Not to mention along the way

There are countless counties and counties, and it is impossible for the Rouran brigade to escape everyone's sight.

————

After Tang Mu and Yuan Zhi left Chuanyun Pass and headed southwest that night, they traveled very slowly, and they could hardly walk a hundred miles in a day or a night.

It's not that they don't want to, it's just that every step is wading into troubled waters, and one careless can be doomed.

Two days after the departure of the Rouran army, the Great Wei Rear Army caught up, but at that time, the Chuanyun Pass was already in ruins, and the corpses were all over the ground, where was the shadow of the Rouran army.

The successive defeats actually made the morale of the Wei army low, although it made considerable progress in the pursuit of the remnants of Baturu, but Tang Mu's team had already wreaked havoc in the northwest.

Outside Chuanyun Pass, Yuwentai's brigade stopped. At present, the three ways Rouran may be chosen, and Yuwentai can no longer gamble, so he has to divide his troops again, but this time the priorities have changed.

Hou Mo Chenjing, the leader of the main team, has been killed these days, and his homeland has been trampled on, which he cannot tolerate.

Outside Chuanyun Pass, Hou Mo Chen Jing divided the team into two groups, Yan Bingchu led the main force of 15,000 people to the north to pursue, and Hou Mo Chen Jing took the remaining 3,000 people to the southwest.

This is Hou Mo Chen Jing's good idea, and it is also because this possibility is small, so Hou Mo Chen Jing only brought a small group of people, so that even if he turned around, it would be too late to change the direction.

The task of pursuing Yuwentai was handed over to Hou Mo Chen Jing and Yan Bingchu, and he himself led the team back to Jiuquan City after leading his troops to basically solve the Batulu Division, and the Hexi defense line could not be changed because of this accident, because they also had to face a large army that was trying their best to continue the army.

Now, with few remnants of the Baturu Division, he has largely fled north, presumably to join up with the main force of the Soft Followers.

The ravages in the Northwest could no longer be changed, and the Wei army could only prevent the same thing from happening again with the temporary strength.

And these matters are also entrusted to the Heavenly Supervisor and the Earth Network to be fully responsible.

In Jinling Mansion, a girl named Sun Qianqian is finally reunited with her belated parents.

Li Chengren and Zhu Tan returned to Jinling after solving the troubles of Shiyu and Xiang'er, and crossed the river to the north with many Jianghu colleagues in Nanliang.

There are a lot of fellow teams who admit defeat, and no one deliberately counts them, but there are thousands of them.

In Luoyang City, Great Wei, Song Wan, who had been recovering on the eastern front, also returned to the capital with people.

Everything is the same, the dream is still the same.

Many people have returned, but they all have a different state of mind.
