Chapter 244. Narrowly escaped life

The Khitan army attacked for several days, but not only failed to make any progress, but suffered heavy losses and demoralization. Yehu Hugo and the others had no choice but to suspend the attack and send people to the imperial court to ask for reinforcements.

Ten days later, more than 100,000 reinforcements arrived. With the momentum of being determined to win, he mobilized the whole army to cross the Luan River by three routes: upper, middle and lower. The Khitan army was waiting for the fierce artillery fire of the Yan Yun army from top to bottom, but unexpectedly, the terrifying firepower that turned over the river and the sea before never appeared again! The three-way Khitan army landed on the opposite bank one after another, but they never encountered any resistance. Seeing that his army had landed on the other side so smoothly, he was very uneasy, worried about whether the Yanyun army had any conspiracy, and immediately ordered the army that crossed the Luan River to stand in line on the spot, and then ordered the follow-up troops to build a pontoon bridge to cross the river as soon as possible!

Three pontoon bridges were built, and the Khitan army crossed the Luan River, and at this point, Ye Hugo felt a little relieved. However, they immediately wondered why Yan Yunjun let them cross the river without stopping them? Not daring to be careless, he ordered the forward cavalry to advance, followed by a large army, and left a large number of troops to guard the riverbank, and the whole army looked cautious.

The forward cavalry drove to the foot of Luanhe City, and found that the city gate was wide open, and the city was very quiet, without the sound of people, and there was no sound of chickens and dogs, which seemed to be an empty city. The forward general Papachi was afraid of an ambush in the city and did not dare to enter the city.

Soon after, a large army of Jeysukio arrived. Papaba hurriedly came over to report: "Generalissimo, there seems to be no one in the city, but the last general suspects that there is an ambush?" He looked at the city in front of him, and he was a little unsure. After a little thought, he ordered hundreds of cavalry to enter the city to investigate.

Hundreds of cavalry galloped into the city gate with apprehension, looking at the empty and silent faces of the surrounding houses, and their hearts rose to their throats.

After about half an hour, several horsemen rushed out and reported to Jeshua Hugo: "Generalissimo, there is no one left in the city, this is an empty city!" Brother Hugh and the others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then secretly annoyed, blaming themselves for being too suspicious! Immediately JesΓΌgo led a large army into the city.

The Khitan army marched into the city, and Yehu Hugo walked into the hall of the governance hall surrounded by the generals. When he walked to the top, he was surprised to find that there was a letter on the top bookcase, and the envelope was written in six big words: 'Opened by Brother Hyung'. He was very strange, picked up the letter, opened it, took out the letter and looked at it, and it said, 'Luanhe is temporarily handed over to you for safekeeping, and I will definitely take it back from you in the future'. Brother Ye Hugh was furious, tore the letter to pieces, threw it to the ground, pointed outside and scolded: "Yanyun Pifu, I want to see how you can recapture the Luanhe River from the hands of Marshal Ben!" When the generals saw this scene, they couldn't help but be surprised.

Soon after, Yelu Hugo received news from Bei'an Prefecture that Xiao Yebule's troops had successfully recovered Bei'an City. So Ye Hugo turned on and only said that he had successfully recovered Luanhe and Bei'anzhou, and did not mention anything else. When the emperor received the report from Jeschu, he was overjoyed and immediately issued an edict of praise.

The gaze turned to the Chengtian Military Village. Just when Yang Peng led the Yanyun army to break into the Zhongjing Road, the two peerless female generals on both sides, Ye Yu Guanyin and Han Bing, fought fiercely in the Chengtian army village. Ye Yu Guanyin attacked the Chengtian army village with 200,000 soldiers and horses, full of cunning, or night attack, or luring the enemy, or sneak attack, the list is endless, if it is not for Han Bing's defense, I am afraid that the Chengtian army village will be broken through by Ye Yu Guanyin! The fierce battle between the two female generals is very exciting, these days, it can be said that there is no difference between victory and defeat, and both of them can't help but admire each other!

At noon that day, Ya Yu Guanyin received a report from Zhongjing Road, and learned that Ye Hu Hugo had successfully recovered the lost territory, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Call your subordinates and order the whole army to retreat. Immediately, Ye Yu Guanyin led the female guards under his command to gallop out of the military camp and gallop towards the towering Taihang Mountain in the east.

Han Bing was discussing military affairs with Yang Jiumei Yang Erya in the big tent, when suddenly a female guard rushed in and reported: "General Han, madam, General Yang, Ye Yu Guanyin sent someone to spread the word, hoping to meet with General Han!" The three of them looked strange. Liang Hongyu asked, "Where is she going to meet?" The female guard said, "The people have come to the bottom of the mountain!" ”

Yang Jiumei said angrily: "Her courage is quite big!" Han Bing thought for a while, and said to Yang Jiumei and Yang Erya: "Just ask Mrs. and Sister Erya to guard the cottage, I will come when I go!" Then he left the tent. A moment later, Han Bing led dozens of Feifeng female guards down the mountain. Meet Ya Kannon on a small hill. The two female generals are dressed in armor and scarlet cloaks, the same majesty, the same stunning beauty, which makes people can't help but feel a feeling of 'both Yu and Liang'.

"Princess!" Han Bing hugged his fists. "General Han Bing!" Yayo Guanyin returned the salute.

The two looked at each other, and a feeling of sympathy arose in their hearts. "After fighting for so long, I finally saw the true face of the general's Lushan! Only the general can withstand my attacks! Han Bing couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Only the princess can make me guard so hard!" The two women looked at each other and smiled.

Ya Yu Guanyin said: "I heard that the general and the king of Yan actually have a grudge, and the general's brother died in the hands of the king of Yan!" But why was the general willing to serve King Yan? How then, can thy brother rest under the nine springs? Han Bing frowned and said, "I have my own plans!" ”

Ya Yu Guanyin squinted his eyes and asked, "Isn't it that the general is in love with King Yan?" Han Bing said angrily: "This is my business, don't worry about the princess!" I heard that the princess's heart had actually been given to King Yan a long time ago, but why should she be an enemy of King Yan? ”

Ye Yu Guanyin said calmly: "Yes, I like King Yan!" I won't like a second man in my life except for him! Then he frowned, "But he is my enemy of Da Liao, I must defeat him!" His expression suddenly became gentle, "When I completely defeat him, I will lock him up in my mansion and let him enjoy the glory and wealth of the world!" ”

Han Bing said angrily: "You are really daydreaming!" Ye Yu Guanyin glanced at Han Bing and said with a smile: "General Han Bing is one of the few women who can make me look at her, and I will definitely leave you to serve the two of us when the time comes!" ”

Han Bing sneered: "I'll give you this as well." After the fall of the Great Liao Kingdom, I will give you to King Yan as a concubine! ”

Ya Yu Guanyin smiled: "Then it depends on whose hand the deer dies!" I think we'll see each other again soon, and we'll have to decide the winners! Don't let me down! "Humph! Each other, each other! I only hope the princess doesn't lose too quickly! ”

Ya Yu Guanyin glanced at Han Bing deeply, turned the horse's head and galloped away, and the female guards followed. Han Bing also turned the horse's head and led the Feifeng female guard back to the village.

Back in the big tent, Yang Jiumei and Yang Erya both curiously asked what they had discussed. Han Bing said angrily with a red face: "Hmph, that arrogant woman, one day I will make her regret everything she said today!" Yang Jiumei and Yang Erya glanced at each other, and they both felt inexplicable.

The gaze returned to Yanjing.

Yang Peng looked at the report he had just sent, sighed, put down the report, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "I really misjudged Zhao Heng!" I thought this guy was going to work hard, but I didn't expect him to change! This guy has clearly made up his mind that he wants peace talks! ”

Zhao Jinxi frowned and said, "This is really incomprehensible!" This series of things have happened in the Khitan Kingdom recently, and the strength has suffered a big setback, and the imperial court has been regrouped during this period of time, and it is already a million armor, and it is assisted by famous generals such as Gao Hu, Cao Jun, and Yang Yanzhao. Why did the emperor ******** want to ask for peace? ”

Yelu Hanyu sneered: "First, it's because of cowardice. Some people are naturally cowardly, no matter whether their strength is strong or weak, they are afraid of fighting with others anyway! This is the so-called coward Yelu Hanyu glared at Yang Peng angrily, "It must be that you didn't care when you did it with us!" Zhao Jinxi blushed and looked at Yang Peng suspiciously.

Yang Peng rolled his eyes and said, "When have I not been careful?" Think about it, I didn't spend two or three hours with you! I stopped because you couldn't stand it and shouted for mercy! Zhao Jinxi was hot, ashamed and annoyed; Yelu Hanyu smiled stupidly, his eyes were hot.

Yang Peng frowned and muttered, "It seems that I need to find Wang Laozhi to see my body!" ”

The Empress Dowager of Goryeo had just finished her court meeting and returned to her mansion. As soon as he returned, he received an urgent letter from Goryeo. After reading the letter, the Empress Dowager of Goryeo was very pleased and immediately returned to the palace. A court meeting lasted until late afternoon. Immediately, the people of the central capital saw dozens of herald cavalry carrying the imperial order galloping out of the palace, and then galloped out of the capital and galloped away in all directions.

Later that day, the emperor sent someone to summon Wang Lun, the envoy of the Song state. Since Wang Lun came here, he has lived in a post house, and he has not been summoned by the emperor of Liao for so long, and the official attitude of Liao to them is also very arrogant and cold, which makes Wang Lun worried, worried that the emperor will not be able to spare him after he goes back, and Wang Qinruo will not let him go. But he didn't expect the summoning order of the Liao State to come down so suddenly, which made him feel overjoyed, and then a trace of uneasiness came to his heart.

Wang Lun didn't dare to delay, hurriedly prepared, and then followed the envoy in the palace with the national letter into the palace. Seeing the Emperor of Liao sitting on the top, Wang Lun couldn't help but bow down, and bowed: "The little minister greets His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Liao Kingdom, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" Seeing this, the monarchs and ministers of the Liao State couldn't help but smile coldly, and their hearts were full of contempt. The Emperor asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

Wang Lun hurriedly raised the national letter, "On behalf of His Majesty the Emperor of our country, the minister has come to ask for peace with the Great Liao State, hoping that you and I will stop fighting and never war!" ”

The emperor glanced at the eunuch next to him, and the eunuch immediately walked to His Royal Highness, took the credentials from Wang Lun's hand, and came back to present them to the emperor. The emperor took the letter of state, opened it, read it again, and although he was mentally prepared, he was still moved by the tone of pity and begging for mercy in the letter of the Song Kingdom. put down the letter of state and said to Wang Lun: "Actually, my Great Liao State has long been reluctant to fight with the Song State, but the generals of the Song State have repeatedly invaded our borders, so they have no choice but to raise troops to fight back!" As long as your emperor can restrain his generals, I am very willing to make peace with the Song State!" ”

Wang Lun didn't expect the Emperor of Liao to agree to their request so readily, he was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly bowed: "Thank you for your kindness!" This is really a blessing for the billions of people of our two countries! ”

The emperor pointed to a minister standing at the back of the left stairs, "This is the court's squire of the Ministry of Rites, Xiao Zhe." Wang Lun hurriedly bowed to Xiao Zhe. Xiao Zhe arched his hand. The Emperor continued: "I will send him as an envoy to accompany you back to the Song court to meet the Emperor of Song and discuss some specific matters. Wang Lun was submissive.

A day later, Xiao Zhe, the envoy of the Liao State, led a delegation to follow Wang Lun and others out of Zhongjing and went to Bianjing. At the same time, however, Liao's war machine was already running at full speed. Soon after, Yalu Guanyin, who was far away in the Central Plains, received an order from the imperial court, ordering her to be transferred with Ye Yu Xiuge, with Ye Yu Xiuge sitting in the Central Plains, and Ye Yu Guanyin returning to Zhongjing Road to preside over military affairs. Just two days after Ya Yu Guanyin received this order, Ye Yu Hugo came.

Ye Yu Guanyin frowned and asked, "Did you instigate Your Majesty to attack Yan Yun?" Brother Ye Hugh smiled: "What the imperial aunt said is not right, the little nephew seems to have done something bad!" Brother Ye Hugh said angrily: "Don't talk to me with a hippie smile!" Don't you know that rashly attacking Yan Yun will outweigh the losses? Now that the civil strife in my Daliao has just subsided, the losses are not small, and the people's hearts are unstable, at this time, we should rest and recuperate, how can we rashly provoke a war, and it is aimed at an opponent like Yan Yun! It's just going to outweigh the losses! ”

Brother Ye Hugo nodded, "What the imperial aunt said is extremely true! But shouldn't we give up if the time comes? ”

Brother Ya Hugh frowned, "What's the right time?" Brother Ye Hugh didn't answer and asked: "If Yang Peng suddenly dies, it will be a perfect time for our Da Liao?" Yari Guanyin was startled, "What do you mean?" Brother Ye Hugh smiled and said: "The imperial aunt will definitely be able to get the news after returning to Zhongjing, and it will naturally be clear at that time!" Ye Yu Guanyin looked at Ye Yu Xiu with a suspicious expression, and couldn't help but worry about Yang Peng.

Today, Yang Peng has a lot of things, and the quarterly reports from all over the country are summarized in one go, which makes him feel overwhelmed. I was busy in the study until midnight, and I felt dizzy, so I put down the report, stood up, and walked out of the study. The cold night breeze blew in his face, making Yang Peng's groggy head immediately sober up a lot, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

At this time, in the dead of night, I didn't even hear the cries of insects and birds, and I felt as if I was the only one in the world. Suddenly, there was the sound of soft footsteps on the left. Yang Peng followed the sound and saw Yang Tong coming over with a soup cup and stepping on broken steps, and Zhao Jinxi followed closely by his side. Yang Peng felt warm in his heart, during this period of time, Yang Tong and Zhao Jinxi were always like this, always holding their carefully boiled ginseng soup when he was most tired, the taste of the soup was naturally not said, but what moved Yang Peng more was their heart. Yang Tong and Zhao Jinxi also love themselves deeply with Yelu and Yang Jiumei, but compared with the two women who were born into wealthy families, Yang Tong and Zhao Jinxi are obviously more careful and considerate.

Yang Tong saw Yang Peng and smiled, "Husband, Jin Xi and I have boiled ginseng soup for you!" Yang Peng felt very heartwarming, and said softly: "It's so late, you should rest!" Zhao Jinxi smiled and said: "Husband is so hard, how can we go to rest by ourselves!" I can't sleep well! Yang Peng sighed; You guys......"

The three of them returned to the study, Yang Tong put down the soup cup, filled a bowl for Yang Peng with his own hands, and then handed it to Yang Peng, "Husband, drink it while it's hot!" Yang Peng took the soup bowl, smiled slightly, kissed Yang Tong's red lips, and drank the ginseng soup, and poured a bowl of ginseng soup into his stomach in two or three times. Zhao Jinxi also took a bowl of ginseng soup and handed it over, "Husband, let's drink another bowl!" Yang Peng smiled, put down the empty bowl, and took the soup bowl handed by Zhao Jinxi, which was also dry. He let out a long breath and exclaimed, "It's so delicious!" The two girls smiled happily.

Yang Peng suddenly felt a lot of pain in his lower abdomen, and couldn't help frowning, "Why does my stomach hurt so much!" The two women were stunned. Yang Peng felt that his stomach was getting more and more painful, it was like a knife cutting and poking at the pain, Yang Peng couldn't help but snort in pain, and his body stumbled and almost fell. Seeing this, the two girls were very surprised, and quickly put down the soup cup, and helped Yang Peng to the front of the seat and sat down. Yang Tong saw that Yang Peng was in a cold sweat, and couldn't help but panic, "This, what's going on?" Zhao Jinxi glanced at the soup cup and frowned; Could it be our soup ......? Yang Tong was shocked, "How could it be?" The master said that the medicinal properties of this medicine are very mild, how can there be such a big reaction? ”

Yang Peng sensed that something was wrong, endured the pain and asked, "What's going on?" The two women looked like they wanted to speak and stopped.

Yang Peng suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood. When the two girls saw this, they were completely stupefied. Yang Peng panted and said, "I, I must have been poisoned!" Hurry up and call the medical officer, call Wang Laozhi! Then he fainted. The two girls came back to their senses and hurriedly stepped forward to hug Yang Peng and shouted. The guards outside heard that something was wrong in the study, and immediately rushed in, and when they saw Yang Peng fainting on the chair with a mouth full of blood, they were all shocked, and a Feifeng guard asked urgently: "Madam, what's wrong with the master?" Yang Tong cried: "Big brother, he, he's poisoned!" Zhong Fei Fengwei was shocked, and the team leader hurriedly ordered his subordinates to call the medical officer and inform the ladies.

Yelu Hanyu and Chai Yonghui were awakened by Fei Fengwei's shouts. Immediately, the personal maid rushed to the side of the bed in a hurry, and said urgently: "Oh no, the master is poisoned!" Yelu Hanyu and Chai Yonghui were shocked when they heard this, and they didn't bother to comb and dress, so they put on a robe and ran out. Seeing Fei Fengwei who came to report the news, he asked briefly and then ran towards the study.

When I came to the study, I saw the eldest brother lying on the bed behind the desk, his eyes closed, there were blood stains at the corners of his mouth, he was already unconscious, and the two medical officers were rushing to the rescue! The two women only felt the world spinning for a while, and they almost fainted. Yelu Hanyu hurriedly calmed himself down, and hurriedly asked the female guard next to him: "Has anyone invited Wang Laozhi?" The female guard shook her head, "No! Yelu Hanyu glared and shouted, "Don't go quickly!" The female guard hurriedly answered the promise and ran out.

Wang Laozhi was woken up by a hurried slamming of the door in the middle of the night, and he was inevitably a little annoyed. However, as soon as he heard that the sect leader's body was in danger of being poisoned, he couldn't help but be shocked. He hurriedly wrapped himself in a coat, took his set of silver needles, mounted his horse and galloped towards the city. Wang Laozhi did not live in the city, but in the Hall of Loyal Souls outside the city.

As soon as I arrived at the study, I saw the sect leader lying on the bed, two medical officers were rescuing, all the guards were at a loss, and the four ladies were crying. When the four girls saw Wang Laozhi coming, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, and they greeted them one after another, and Yelutri hurriedly said: "Save the eldest brother!" ”

Wang Laozhi walked quickly to the bed, and the two medical officers hurriedly retreated. Wang Laozhi checked Yang Peng's situation, frowned, and shouted: "Prepare hot water and burn the fire!" The female guards immediately rushed down to prepare. Wang Laozhi spread his silver needle bag on the side of the bed, took out a silver needle and began to needle Yang Peng. Everyone held their breath and their eyes widened!

As time passed, Wang Laozhi kept changing the silver needles, long or short, thick or thin, sometimes just piercing the skin, sometimes penetrating the texture, sometimes burning the needle, sometimes washing the needle; Yang Peng remained silent, only to see black blood spilling from the pinhole from time to time; Everyone raised their hearts to their throats, and they didn't dare to let out the atmosphere, especially Yang Peng's ladies, who were like they were suffering in hell.

I don't know how long it took, but it seemed to be very long, and it seemed to be very short. Wang Laozhi pulled out a long silver needle inserted in Yang Peng's chest, Yang Peng suddenly opened his eyes, and spurted out a mouthful of black blood with a wow. The girls were very surprised, and shouted urgently: "Big brother (husband!) However, Yang Peng fainted again. The women were shocked, and hurriedly ran to the bed to check, and when they saw Yang Peng's black and bloody appearance, they couldn't stop crying; Wang Laozhi wiped the sweat on his forehead, feeling a little spinning. Yelu Hanyu turned his head and asked Wang Laozhi angrily: "What's going on?" Why is the eldest brother dizzy again? ”

Wang Laozhi hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "Madam, don't panic, the toxins in the sect body have been removed by the subordinates with the technique of crossing the veins with golden needles!" ......" When the girls heard this, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, and Chai Yonghui hurriedly asked, "Is the eldest brother okay anymore?" Wang Laozhi shook his head, "It's hard to say now, I won't know until tonight." When the girls heard this, their hearts that had been relieved couldn't help but rise again. Wang Laozhi clenched his fists and said, "The subordinates need to prescribe a prescription for the sect leader to further expel the toxins in the sect master!" Chai Yonghui hurriedly said: "Then you go quickly!" Wang Laozhi agreed, walked quickly to the back of the bookcase, sat down, and wrote a prescription. handed it to Jiang Li and instructed: "Boil with water, add ten bowls of water and boil it into one bowl." Jiang Li nodded and hurried down.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
