Chapter 1 Defeat in the North

Next Chapter

Nanzhao went to the capital

In a manor pavilion with lush flowers and small bridges and flowing water, a light rain from the sky knocked on the roof of the pavilion, and then the rain slowly flowed to the ground from top to bottom. Two handsome young men in white sat opposite each other around the round stone table, one had a listless expression, the other had sharp eyes, the two took the tea, respectfully drank each other, and suddenly the sharp young man suddenly got up and looked up at the north of the gray sky outside the pavilion, turned his back to the young man behind him, and said softly and slowly:

"Qingyun, do you guess what is the war between our Nanzhao and Libei army in the Northern Hebei Plain at this time?"

"I don't know."

When the listless boy heard his question, he just rubbed his fingers against the white porcelain teacup, and only two long words came out of his mouth, and nothing else. The young man who was standing turned to look at the young man named Qingyun, smiled and didn't speak, because he knew very well what kind of character the young man in front of him was, he was just too lazy to say it on the surface, and his mind was difficult to understand.

You Qingyun is the son of You Tianming, the general of the Southern Zhao Expedition, and the young man sitting with him is Nan Yu, the third prince of the Southern Zhao. You Qingyun stood up for a long time at this time, stretched his waist, and also looked at the north, the eagle in the sky galloped and soared in that direction, as if You Qingyun's eyes were attached to the eagle's sharp eyes, and he saw the Northern Hebei Plain at this time.

……

Hebei Plain

As the eagles in the sky flew from top to bottom, under the gray sky, many crows hovered in the air for a long time, occasionally making a piercing sound, as if it was a requiem from hell, in this golden iron horse, the bloody battlefield seems to be particularly palpitating.

The North Hebei Plain is a flat river basin from the North Dynasty Hebei North Pass, the left and right mountains are connected to the North Hebei Pass and is built in the middle, it is one of the most important defense lifelines from the North Dynasty, if the city pass is broken, there is only the last line of defense left from the North Dynasty. And the war with them was the Nanzhao Dynasty opposite them, and the new monarch of Nanzhao ascended the throne, so he urgently needed to show his majesty, so he decided to appoint You Tianming as a general and lead 400,000 troops to attack the Northern Dynasty.

You Tianming is both civil and military, proficient in various military arts, steady and steady step by step, and the Northern Army has been fighting for three years, capturing the eighteen passes from the North Pass, and the dangerous Northern Dynasty only has the last two lines of defense, struggling to support.

You Tianming, the general of the Southern Zhao Expedition to the Northern Command, rode on the sweaty and bloody horse under him, his aura was high, and his calm eyes revealed the wisdom of strategizing and winning thousands of miles away, with a dark and strong body, wearing a black armor and holding a spear to quickly give orders to the generals behind him.

"Lieutenant Li, I order you to lead 30,000 cavalry to quickly outflank the remnants of the northern remnants of the army left and right, and destroy their living forces as much as possible, and the others will rush and kill with me."

With the general's generous and powerful order, the huge black iron spiral horn more than ten meters long emitted a majestic and deep charging sound.

Just half an hour later.

All the warriors on the front line of the Beacon Fire have been assembled, and one by one legions have appeared, like war machines piled up. One by one, the commanders immediately gave orders to their legions and began to command, and the entire beacon front line was densely occupied by countless soldiers, stepping on the damp soil intertwined with rain and blood, and the legions were like wild dragons!

Blood! Chill! Cold! Strong!

This is a battle-hardened warrior!

"Rush! Kill! ”

With the order of the commanders, all the legions immediately rushed out of the front line of the beacon fire, and between heaven and earth, countless warriors were like locusts crossing the border, advancing at great speed to kill the sky, with the ultimate goal of destroying all enemies in front of them. The Libei army, which has been defeated repeatedly, has been defeated miserably because of successive defeats, as if a domino effect, from the general to the soldiers are all demoralized, and they are unable to stop the attack of the tiger and wolf division of Nanzhao, they can only retreat to the northern Hebei Pass of the dangerous pass to wait for the opportunity.

Blood was spilled, and stumps and severed arms flew into the void.

The red blood poured on the ground, it was so dazzling!

It makes it seem as if it has become a Shura field.

The two armies chased and ran each other to kill each other, and the remnants of the army from the north who were caught up with the slow step were harvested one after another like wheat in the rice field, and the high-morale Nanzhao army was like a red-eyed beast one by one, on the battlefield there was only a difference between life and death between the enemy and me, and to show mercy to the enemy was to be cruel to themselves, and the Nanzhao behind them was the biggest support for their achievements and triumphant returns, so no one was afraid of death.

"Quick, close the gates."

With Shen Feng, the general of the Northern Army, shouting, the heavy city gate was slowly closed by the soldiers behind the city gate, and those soldiers who were slow to leave the North could only watch being shot to death by the Nanzhao army one by one. As the city gate was closed, You Tianming immediately waved his hand to command the army to stop advancing, and the forbidden army suddenly stopped advancing, and stood in the team in a rapid and orderly manner.

"General Shen Feng, you can't shrink back to survive, this is not your style."

"You Tianming, I admit that you are a veritable famous general, I am not as good as you, but for the sake of the thousands of people who have left the north behind me, even if I have this shrunken infamy on my back!"

As he spoke, suddenly wisps of snow slowly fell from the sky, falling more and more, as if the temperature between heaven and earth dropped to freezing point in an instant, and the snow fell to the ground, as if God was also healing the scars of this ravine, and the blood flowed like a river, and the battlefield where the smoke of gunpowder had not dispersed was gradually smoothed by the snow.

"Newspaper..."

"Pass my military order and return to the camp."

At this moment, You Tianming, who looked up at the city tower of the pass in northern Hebei, was attracted by the voice of the herald behind him, picked up the holy decree presented by the herald's hands, spread his hands, stared at the content on it, and was stunned for a moment before reuniting and giving the order to retreat.

"General, our morale is winning, why don't we take the North Hebei Pass in one fell swoop?"

"See for yourselves!"

In the palace in front of Wuxia Pass, which was captured by the Northern Army, a high-level general sat down with You Tianming in the middle, and raised the questions in the hearts of many generals, and You Tianming took out the previous holy decree.

……

Fengtian carrier, the emperor said. The Northern Army broke away from the Northern Army, and strengthened my Southern Zhao Tianwei, and I was very relieved. However, after three years of war, the people and money were lost, and the heavy snow fell sharply.

Libei Xiangnan Zhao has sued for peace, signed a three-year armistice agreement, compensation for the loss of 5 million taels of gold, 18 million taels of silver, 300,000 quintals of grain and grass, because of the favorable time, place and people, I decided to order the northern army to suspend the march, and ordered General You Tianming to take back the two princes of the Northern Dynasty to return to the dynasty as a hostage in five days.

"This..."

After reading the contents of the holy decree, the generals looked at You Tianming in amazement, even if their eyes were full of helplessness, no one said it, the holy decree had been issued, no one dared to discuss it, and a war ended temporarily at this time.

………

Shangjing of the Southern Zhao Kingdom is the central hub of the entire imperial power, and it is also the center of economy and culture, with a population of nearly 10 million, and there is still room in the Shangjing City, which shows the huge size of the Shangjing City. At this time, outside the gate of You Mansion, a slightly older servant, with a happy expression, hurriedly trotted into the mansion from the outside, and came to the main hall of the house, and saw a middle-aged woman sitting on the Taishi chair with a graceful and luxurious demeanor, bowing down to hand over the letter she had just received.

"Madame, ma'am, the lord has a letter."

"Okay, good, good, my lord will be back from the battlefield in five days."

"Old Yu, what about Qing'er?"

The middle-aged woman hurriedly picked up the letter, opened it and looked at it, her expression of surprise was overflowing, and then she turned slightly to think of something, and then thought of her son, so she asked the butler who was standing beside her.

"Mrs. Hui, I should be going to the Spring Garden."

The housekeeper nodded after hearing the housekeeper's words, then got up from her seat, and slowly walked out of the door with her slender figure.
