Chapter Forty-Eight: Mane Warning, Righteous Canal Siege
Chen Yong told everyone everything that happened during the sacrifice of the Qin State, and the people of the Chixia Sect began to look solemn at this time, no one thought that the outside world would be so chaotic. In any case, Gao Jin Gao still needs to be confirmed before he can make a choice. Therefore, Chen Yong and Concubine Chen Yun, together with their mentor Bai Hongzhenren, returned to Bai Yufeng and began to practice Taoism every day.
For those who are cultivators, time flies, and soon a year has passed. When the Spring Festival is approaching again, everyone has begun to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new. Even Concubine Chen Yun began to dust and post couplets. Chen Yongcai remembered again that the matter he reported to Gao Jin and Gao's head had sunk into the sea, and there was no response. It's just that the three manes given to him by the Hei Ming Dao people are still intact, indicating that there are no major changes in the Qin State, and Chen Yong is relieved and no longer cares about this matter.
But at the end of the year, when Chen Yong and Concubine Chen Yun began to prepare for the New Year, the three manes suddenly burned! Concubine Chen Yun couldn't help but be taken aback, so she turned her head to look at Chen Yong. She wondered what Chen Yong would do in such a situation.
Chen Yong looked at Concubine Chen Yun and said with a look of shame on his face: "Senior sister, the head of the Black Ming Dao is in trouble, there will definitely be some accidents in the Qin Kingdom, so I can only go alone??????????????? Qin Guo, find out! Can't chill King Qin's heart! ”
Concubine Chen Yun knew that King Yingji of Qin had only taken the throne of King Qin, and it was normal for any accidents to occur during this time. In particular, there are two Taoists in the Kongtong faction, Jia Liang and Min Hui, who participated in the sacrifice and killing of the King of Qin after Huiwen. If it is the Kongtong faction and then sends people to the Qin State, anything may happen. What's more, Concubine Chen Yun also knew that the Canglang Daoist incarnated by the blue wolf spirit was also captured by an unknown Taoist, and set up a large array of Liangyi to prevent the Heiming Daoist from arresting the Canglang Daoist. Not to mention anything else, this unknown Taoist is even more of a hidden danger.
Concubine Chen Yun thought for a while before saying, "Senior brother, I won't stop you anymore." It's just that before this trip, you should go to Master Gao first and inform yourself of your itinerary. Senior sister believes that Master Gao should know the current situation of the Qin State. If he doesn't stop you from going to the Qin State, the senior brother will rush over now, it's just the right time!" Otherwise, this trip will be really dangerous......"
Chen Yong said: "Thank you for reminding me, I know." It's just that no matter whether Gao Jin and Gao agree with me to go to Qin State, my junior brother will go, and I ask my senior sister to forgive me......"
Concubine Chen Yun said: "If a gentleman does something, he must do something!" Whatever the junior brother decides, the senior sister will support you! This trip is dangerous, why don't you and I go to Qin together? ”
Chen Yong said: "Senior sister, it is precisely because of this dangerous trip that I don't want you to go with me. With you staying in the Chixia Sect, if something really happens, I still have someone to rescue me. What's more, my current ability, senior sister, you know, I go alone, it's safer......"
Concubine Chen Yun said: "Senior brother, do you think I'm holding you back? Don't you want your sister to go along? ”
Chen Yong said: "Where, where! Senior sister can play a greater role if she stays in the Chixia faction. What's more, this trip is really likely to be the enemy of the Nine Great Sects, and the junior and younger brother go alone, no matter what, there is still room for maneuver. What's more, I have cultivated eight or nine Xuangong, and I haven't found anyone to really try it, if I can really meet the masters of other sects, I can just confirm the power of expounding the eight or nine Xuangong! ”
Concubine Chen Yun knew what Chen Yong was worried about, and she also knew that if she fought against someone now, she would indeed be very different from Chen Yong, so she didn't say anything more, but went with him to Putuo Mountain in the South China Sea to meet the head Gao Jin.
The two met Master Gao together, and when they entered the door, they said New Year's joy to each other. The head of Gao Jin smiled and said hello to the two, Chen Yong was anxious, worried that the head of Heiming would have an accident, so he went straight to the point and explained the purpose of the trip to the head of Gao.
Master Gao looked at Chen Yong and Concubine Chen Yun and said, "The affairs of the Qin State are more complicated, I don't think it's a good time to meddle now, especially if the King of Qin is still detained?" Jia Liang and Min Hui of the Kongtong faction will cause many incidents. If you two insist on going, I think it's better to go half a month later, after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. ”
Chen Yong said: "Hei Ming Dao Elder gave me three manes, and today suddenly spontaneously combusted, and all three of them were ignited at the same time, I believe that he has encountered a problem that he can't solve at all, so he will ask me for help." Whether it's for the sake of the Heiming Daoist or the King of Qin, I have to go to the Qin State today to help them! Please also ask the high master to complete! ”
Gao Jin turned his head to look at Concubine Chen Yun and said, "Concubine Chen Yun, are you two going together, or is Chen Yong going alone?" ”
Chen Yong replied first: "I will go alone, and Senior Sister will stay in the Chixia Sect!" This trip is dangerous, and it is enough for me to take the risk alone! ”
Concubine Chen Yun said: "Master Gao, I also want to go together, but when I came, Senior Brother Chen insisted on going alone. Look at this ??????????????? Is it feasible? ”
Gao Zhangmen said: "I think it will be feasible in half a month, but it's better not to go now." But Chen Yong insisted on going, and I couldn't stop him. In this way, if there is any accident, I allow Chen Yong to say that he is going to Qin in the name of my Gaojin! That's all I can do for you......"
Chen Yong thanked the head of Gao Jin, bowed, and then turned to leave. Concubine Chen Yun chased after her and shouted to Chen Yong, who had already flown up. Chen Yong didn't look back, let alone answer, he was afraid that if he turned back, he might never be able to go out again......
Chen Yong rushed to Xianyang of the Qin State and came directly to the imperial palace of Xianyang, at this time the Qin Wang Yingji was gathering the ministers of civil and military affairs to discuss the military situation in the main hall. The news of Daoist Chen Yong's arrival, naturally someone reported it to Yingji, and he hurriedly led hundreds of civil and military officials, together with Daoist Heiming and Daoist Canglang, to welcome Daoist Chen's righteous help.
Chen Yong was welcomed into the main hall by King Yingji of Qin, and a chair was specially arranged for him next to his seat. Chen Yong couldn't refuse, so he sat down. At this time, the Qin State was discussing, and the war with the Wei State, Chen Yong was listening to it, and he could hear a rough idea.
It turned out that after Chen Yong and the two left, King Yingji of Qin began to investigate how Hui Wenhou and others conspired to sacrifice and kill the king. But Empress Hui Wen would rather die than say anything, and did not talk to the person sent by the King of Qin for interrogation at all, and could not ask a word from her mouth at all. However, the people who rebelled with Hui Wen had a lot of soft bones, so they could naturally get a lot of useful information. It's just that if King Yingji of Qin really killed Empress Huiwen and others in one fell swoop, Yingji was still worried that it would anger Wei Hei, the king of Wei Xiang, so he was still hesitating.
However, when Qin Wang Yingji was hesitating, he didn't know that someone had conspired, and he first sent people to contact the Xirong soldiers and horses of Yiqu, and asked them to send troops to attack Xianyang, the capital of Qin. The conspirator invited the Xirong soldiers and horses of Yiqu to send troops from the southwest and go straight to Xianyang along the Jingshui! They will let people respond, so that King Yingji of Qin will not investigate this matter. He also asked Wei He, the king of Wei Xiang, to send troops to seize the land west of the river, so that the head and tail of the Qin state could not be taken care of, and killed the king of Qin Yingji in one fell swoop, so as to achieve the intention of usurping the country and setting up a new king.
The king of Qin, Yingji, suddenly came to report from the horse, saying that Wei He, the king of Wei Xiang, had sent troops and horses to the west of the river, and had the intention of attacking Qin in one fell swoop. King Yingji of Qin naturally understood that the reason why Wei He, the king of Wei Xiang, sent troops was related to the civil strife in the Qin State that had been interrupted for a short time. What's more, whether it is Empress Huiwen or Queen Wu of Qin, they will be princesses of Wei, and the King of Qin they want to set up is Gongzi Zhuang, but now Yingji is sitting on the King of Qin. How could Wei He, the king of Wei Xiang, not send troops to disturb Qin at this time to help the two queens prestige?
When King Yingji of Qin learned about it, he would naturally send more troops and horses to the land west of the river, but what he didn't know was that this was the plan of the conspirator. Because only when there are few soldiers and horses in Xianyang, the Xirong soldiers and horses of the Yiqu can be successful. This time, Yiqu has prepared 60,000 Xirong iron horsemen, and they rushed to Xianyang in the starry night.
The timing of the conspirator's calculation was very exquisite, and it was when King Yingji of Qin sent troops to reinforce the land west of the river. When most of the Xianyang soldiers and horses were sent out, there were only more than 10,000 people guarding the town, and the 60,000 soldiers and horses of Xirong of the Yiqu had also rushed to the outside of Xianyang City. That night, the conspirator wanted to send someone to open the gate of Xianyang City, and the 60,000 Xirong soldiers and horses of Yiqu were killed into Xianyang City, but they were discovered by the general Wei Ran when he patrolled the city.
The great general Wei Ran took down the people, only to learn that Queen Wu of Qin was plotting to overthrow the Qin regime. The general Wei Ran hurriedly sent someone to inform the King of Qin and his sister Mi Bazi Xuan Empress Dowager. King Yingji of Qin summoned the Empress Dowager Jixuan, Zhu Liji and other close ministers to discuss state affairs together to stabilize the dynasty. And King Yingji of Qin swore that this time he must clear the internal and external troubles of the Qin State, and ??????????????? Never forget!
The most urgent thing now is how to eradicate the Xirong soldiers and horses from Yiqu. These 60,000 iron horsemen are the most important thing. If they can't annihilate Yiqu's soldiers and horses in one fell swoop and let these Xirong retreat, they will dare to burn, kill and plunder in Qin, and it will cause even more trouble to Qin. But now in the hands of the great general Wei Ran, there are only more than 10,000 Qin troops, although they are all elite, but they only have one-fifth of Xirong's soldiers and horses. The disparity in strength is too great, at most it can hold Xianyang, and it is simply impossible to take down the soldiers and horses of Yiqu in one fell swoop.
Today's matter is urgent, so the two people, including the head of the Heiming Dao and the head of the Canglang Dao, also participated in the discussion together. Seeing that King Qin and the others were worried, the head of Heiming Dao volunteered to go out of the city to help the Qin army and exterminate the 60,000 soldiers and horses of Yiqu Xirong who had attacked from the attack. Before the battle with the soldiers and horses of Yiqu Xirong, what King Yingji of Qin had to do was to directly send someone to take down Queen Qin Wu and the people who rebelled with her.
The matter was naturally handed over to the general Wei Ran. In the evening of the same day, he captured Queen Qin Wu and the people who followed her to rebel, and then imprisoned them all before leading the Qin army out of the city to meet the enemy!
This time, more than 10,000 Qin troops fought against the 60,000 Yiqu Xirong army, which naturally became the focus of the battle. King Yingji of Qin wanted to go out of the city to meet the enemy in person, but was stopped by the queen mother Mi Bazi, the prime minister and others. King Qin had no choice but to beat drums and cheer for the soldiers on the top of the Xianyang City Tower.
60,000 Yiqu Xirong soldiers and horses rushed to attack and wanted to capture Xianyang City overnight, but because the general Wei Ran found it in time, they did not succeed. The soldiers and horses of Yiqu, who attacked the city of Yiyi, were already sleepy and tired at this time. They were about to collect their troops and return to the camp to rest, when the gate of Xianyang City suddenly opened.
General Wei Ran led 10,000 Qin troops out of the city to meet the enemy! When Yiqu's Xirong soldiers and horses saw the Qin army leaving the city, how could the king of Yiqu not seize the opportunity to annihilate the Qin army in one fell swoop? The two armies faced each other, lined up on both sides, and the king of Yiqu was going to start a big battle with the Qin army. The general Wei Ran proposed that the generals of the two armies should fight for 300 rounds first, how could the king of Yiqu show weakness? So the king of Yiqu sent two warriors of Yiqu to fight with the generals of the Qin army. The general Wei Ran personally met the enemy and picked one person with a gun, but he was also tired and out of breath.
When another Yiqu warrior went into battle, the head of the Black Ming Dao urged his horse to come to the front of the two armies. Hei Ming is about to exert his might and annihilate 60,000 Yiqu soldiers and horses in one fell swoop......
