Chapter 35 Liaodong Civil Strife Chapter 1 "The Battle of the Yalu River"

The morning dew is faint, in a wasteland in the south of Pingguo City, the white mist is kind, like a white practice in the land of Liaodong.

In this vast expanse, you can vaguely see a person and a rider galloping in the direction of Xiangping, talking to themselves as they walk.

When I pulled closer, I could only hear him read: "Tong Zi Ling, Tong Zi Ling, what can these be? You just have to live a good life by yourself, what Huo Qianning, what Li Zijie, who hasn't fallen out of love! You don't care, do you? Right......"

Speaking of this, I only felt that my nose was sore, my eyebrows and eyes were hanging, my mouth was irrepressibly torn open, and there was an intermittent "uh" from the depths of my throat...... Belch...... Belch...... uh".

Tears poured down like a downpour on his cheeks, and he choked loudly: "You are a dignified guard!" Cry a fart! ”

Then he turned back and galloped away in the opposite direction of Xiangping.

Outside the city of Xiangping, there were already 18,000 soldiers lined up, of which 5,000 were the Suibo army, which was composed of warriors who had been following Tong Ruonan to fight in the north and some elites in the county, and the other 13,000 were all county soldiers, both of which were led by Shi Liu Zheng, the magistrate of Liaodong County.

Liu Zheng said Xie Wenyan and said: "It's been three poles a day, but Master Tong hasn't come back yet!" ”

Xie Wenyan arched his hand: "Lord Liu might as well wait a little longer, maybe something is delayed on the road." ”

Liu Zheng waved his long sleeves and said, "Don't wait!" I have listened to you and waited until now, how can I delay the military plane again! As a county guard, Lord Tong is nostalgic for the rivers and lakes, which really makes us feel cold! ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Xie Wenyan was refuted and had nothing to say, so he had to shake his head and sigh.

At this time, the soldiers of the three armies had not seen the hero boy spirit of Liaodong for a long time, and they were inevitably lost in their hearts.

Liu Zheng walked to the high platform, and there were several people standing on the left and right, all of whom were Wenchen generals with sassy postures, who were Tai Shici, Tian Zan and others.

Liu Zheng stood still on the stage, raised his eyebrows and said loudly: "Foreign invasion, occupy my Han rivers and mountains, soldiers, is the patron saint of the people!" The reassurance of the country! If you win this battle, you are all heroes! If you lose, you and my wife will be reduced to foreign enemies! ”

At this point, the soldiers were already filled with righteous indignation.

Tai Shi Ci pulled out the sword at his waist when he climbed on the side, raised it high to the sky, and said sharply: "Kill the enemy, and restore my rivers and mountains!" ”

Tai Shi Ci's voice was like a bell, and this loud shout made the hearts of the soldiers in the audience feel great, and more than 10,000 soldiers also raised their weapons in their hands and said: "Kill the enemy and restore my rivers and mountains!" ”

Liu Zheng and the others stepped down from the stage and said to Xie Wenyan: "Mr. Lao has the affairs of the county, I will set off later!" ”

Xie Wenyan arched his hand and said, "I wish you all a victory!" ”

The army set off mightily, Xie Wenyan looked at Liu Zheng's majestic back on the side, but he vaguely thought of a person in his heart, who was the previous Liaodong County Shougong Sun Du!

But said that where Tong Ruo went, he actually returned to the place where he started, and came to the old mansion in Liaodong with his father Tong Yuan to take refuge.

The cup that once served tea to Tong Yuan is still placed on the stage, but the cup has been covered with a thick layer of dust, and the room is also covered with cobwebs.

When I walked to the back room, I saw that although the room I had lived in was simple and dilapidated, I had a sense of warmth, but unfortunately my heart was always empty, and it was really difficult to show my face.

With his right hand raising this rare treasure gun that was as colored as frost and snow, and with his left hand caressing the word "Zhong Ling" on the body of the gun, his heart was very agitated, and he immediately put the gun at the head of the bed, and spent many hours cleaning the house inside and out.

He remembered that the storyteller had said that he had buried Tong Yuan in the forest behind the house, and although he didn't believe it, he decided to go there and have a look.

Although the forest is quiet and depressed, it is also full of flowers and plants, and it is also a treasure of feng shui for the deceased.

After walking a few steps, he saw that there was indeed a grave in the forest.

Looking closer, there is a wooden tombstone on the grave, on which are written seven big characters: "The Tomb of the Great Hero Tong Yuan".

This seven-character pen is powerful, silkworm head swallowtail, and it is obvious that the calligraphy of the person who erected the tomb is also outstanding.

Seeing this Tong Ruo, he was very confused in his heart, and thought to himself: "That old man is cunning and insidious, and he killed his father, how can he write on the tomb that my father is a great hero." Could it be that he is from the state? ”

Why did Tong Ziling have such a conjecture, it turned out that his father Tong Yuan had done a big thing in Bingzhou.

When Tong Yuan traveled to Bingzhou as a young man, he once encountered a group of Hun cavalry raiding the people at the border pass, so Tong Yuan annihilated the cavalry with one person, and then left the lives of two people to go back to report the news.

The leader of the Huns was furious when he learned about it, and personally led three teams of cavalry to kill Tong Yuan, but the result was completely annihilated by Tong Yuan, and since then Tong Yuan has been famous all over the world, and he is also called a great hero by the people of Bingzhou.

Tong Ruo knelt on the ground with his knees bent, looking at the tomb of Tong Yuan in a daze, and his heart was full of emotion, as the old saying goes: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and people want to raise but do not wait." ”

Tong Yuan worked hard to raise him as an adult, and now he has a little success, but he can no longer repay Tong Yuan's nurturing kindness, how not to make him sad.

From then on, he guarded in front of the grave every day during the day, practicing the marksmanship taught by Tong Yuan, and using Tong's marksmanship to cooperate with this Zhong Linggun, the gun was even more powerful, and the marksmanship became more and more sophisticated.

He guarded the grave during the day and went home to rest at night, thinking that this peaceful life would calm his mind.

It's a pity that it backfired, every night he would recall Huo Qianning's voice and smile, and his longing did not decrease but increased.

What kind of feeling do you like to be alone in the depths?

He began to become irritable, and this night, Huo Qianning's figure appeared in his mind again, and he couldn't get rid of it, he wanted to cry a lot, but he couldn't shed a single tear.

He began to suspect that he might not like Huo Qianning, but he just felt guilty about her, but the resentment in his heart was really uncomfortable, and he just wanted to vent.

He threw his fist at the wooden cabinet in the room, and the wooden cabinet burst with a bang, and he continued to swing his fist, and again and again, the tip of the broken wooden block pierced into his skin like a sharp knife, and blood spilled from his hand.

He looked at the red blood, and felt a tingling pain spread in his body, he didn't stop, only to see the corners of his mouth rise unexpectedly, this pain actually made him feel very happy.

Continue to swing your fists until the wooden cabinet is shattered and scattered all over the ground.

The next day, he went to a nearby village, found a few children, and asked them to use a slingshot to punch homemade iron balls into their chests.

Where can the child withstand his coercion and temptation, a grain of iron beads came through the wind, he did not dodge or dodge, only felt a sharp pain in his chest swept through his body, he fell to the ground with a bang, his back to the sky, and laughed.

The children were so frightened that they cried and fled in all directions.

Besides, Liu Zheng's side, the battle with Goguryeo is indeed extremely difficult, the Goguryeo people are fierce, the human nature is fierce, and there are several battles with each other's victories and defeats.

At a loss, Wang Lie said: "Now Goguryeo and our army have fought several times are in a lack of soldiers, Xuansu County has now been occupied by Goguryeo three-quarters, there are still more than 4,000 soldiers, strong soldiers and horses, can join forces with it, victory or defeat in one fell swoop." ”

When Liu Zheng heard this, he conscripted troops from the Xuansu County Guard, even though the Xuansu County Guard was unwilling in every way, but Goguryeo repeatedly invaded, and the people suffered a lot, and they could not stand the voices of the officials and the people, so they had to send troops to help.

But unexpectedly, it is true that the Xuanwu County Guard only sent troops to come, but did not help the battle, but watched from the wall.

Liu Zheng almost fell to the enemy, but fortunately Tai Shici was brave and invincible, so he barely fought to a draw.

When Liu Zheng came back, his armor was torn, and his underwear was full of blood stains, so he took off his shirt and rushed directly into the camp tent of the soldiers of Xuansu County with his upper body exposed.

Everyone saw Liu Zheng's domineering sideways, and there were dozens of knife wounds and sword marks on his body, which was really shocking, and no one dared to step forward to stop him.

walked into the Chinese military tent, but saw that the Xuanwu county guard was still asleep, and he was angry.

After a cup of tea, I only heard a scream, blood splashed in the camp tent, and when Liu Zheng came out again, there was already an extra human head in his hand that was still dripping blood, which was the head of the Xuanwu County Taishou.

So far, no one dares to say anything, just bent on courting the enemy.

Tai Shici even ate and slept with the sergeants, and the morale of the army was high.

A few days later, the two sides fought a decisive battle on the Yalu River, and Tai Shici took the lead and led thousands of elite soldiers from Liaodong County to rush in.

Drawing their bows and arrows, and shooting several arrows in succession, the enemy soldiers all fell from their horses, drew their halberds from their backs, and rushed into the enemy formation, and there was a wild dance, blood splashed in all directions, and the enemy did not dare to move forward.

The Goguryeo soldiers were timid when they saw Tai Shi Ci, and after several battles, they already knew that Tai Shi Ci was brave, if it wasn't for Tai Shi Ci's command, this Liaodong County would have been defeated many times.

But the Goguryeo cavalry was not vegetarian, but Tai Shici was strong in martial arts, and the soldiers under his command were indeed invincible, and they were stunned to fight.

At this moment, Tian Zan led more than 3,000 Suibo troops to attack from the left side, fighting Shao Lean, and Yuan Geng led thousands of county soldiers to attack from the right side.

Even so, the two sides were still fighting inseparably, and they were gradually exhausted, but at this time, there was a team of soldiers and horses pressing over from the front, which was more than 4,000 Xuansu soldiers led by Liu Zheng.

The two sides fought for a few more hours, and the Goguryeo army was gradually defeated, and did not dare to fight, so they fled to the north.

The Liaodong army was like a bamboo, fighting all the way, chasing the enemy for hundreds of miles, and chasing the Goguryeo soldiers to the domestic city.

In this battle, more than 4,000 enemies were killed, nearly 10,000 troops were surrendered, corpses were everywhere, and the water of the Yalu River was dyed red.

Only the king of Goguryeo led more than 3,000 people to flee to the domestic city, not daring to face the battle.

It was not easy to attack the city, the battle was far away, and Guoyuan escorted grain and grass in the rear, and it was difficult to deliver it in time, so he could only give up the idea of attacking the city in the country.

At the moment, how to deal with the 10,000 surrendered troops, Tai Shici and Wang Liejin said to spare them for future dispatch, and Tian Zan and Yuan Geng Jinyan slaughtered the army, and the two sides were in dispute for a while.

Liu Zheng had already made up his mind, and ordered the sergeant to dig a big pit 30 zhang long, 20 zhang wide, and 2 zhang high in front of the domestic city, and nearly 10,000 troops were killed by the pit with an order, and the world mourned for a while!

On the top of the pit, there is a boulder or two feet high, on which the blood of Goguryeo soldiers is inked, and five big characters are written: "Whoever crosses this boundary, kill!" ”

Since then, the Goguryeo people have been terrified, and no one dares to cross this monument. When he heard Tai Shici's name, he was stunned, and cursed Liu Zheng in his heart, but no one dared to mention this person's name.
