"Good news!"

"Come on, everyone!"

"Good news, the Ding'an army has won a great victory!"

More than a dozen officers shouted loudly, and their footsteps quickly shuttled through the streets and alleys, and the people on the street who were originally busy were stunned one by one, and then some people reacted and shouted happily, or informed the neighbors of the family that someone had enlisted in the army.

The news was transmitted to Ding'an in the early morning of the next day, the first to receive the news was Sun Shuwu, who sat in the town of the government and guarded Sun Shuwu, during the period when the army went out, he almost never slept steadily, although there had been a victory before, but in the face of a similar number of soldiers and horses, the Ding'an army of less than 20,000 was now against nearly 80,000 troops in three states.

The moment he heard the news, as if in a dream, he took his wife's hand and slapped it on his face a few times, feeling the hot pain, he grabbed the scout who came back with the news and asked again, and then, his face was flushed, and he rushed out of the backyard laughing, and before he even had time to tie his robe, he rushed to Su Mansion by car, and he wanted to inform Su Hou Ye of the news as soon as possible.

When he came, Su Mansion was as calm as usual.

It's just that most of the people in the family are absent-minded, during this time, Su Congfang will send someone to the government every day to ask for news, and the old wife Xiao Wu chants all day long to pray for her son's safe return; Yin Suhuan also prayed with her mother-in-law, and also prayed for her deceased husband, hoping that he could bless her uncle safely, and sometimes after serving her mother-in-law to sleep, she went to the south chamber to help clean the courtyard, but it was clean and tidy at all times.

The second brother Su Lie is impatient, and after his younger brother went on the expedition, he often drank alcohol, so that he forgot that he was a waste person, and he became indifferent to his wife Hua Hongzhen, and the woman sometimes complained that he could only drink a few words, which caused a burst of scolding.

This morning, the door of the mansion had just opened, and Ding'an Taishou ran like crazy, shouting as soon as he entered the courtyard.

"Won!"

"Master Su, you won-"

The Su family who heard the news all shouted excitedly when they heard the news, and the huge sense of oppression of the army made them almost out of breath these days, and among several of them, several young people were the happiest, they were running around in the city, lobbying those rich families to gather food, or preaching the victory of the battle in the city, and the court did not dare to underestimate me...... A remark.

"Uncle, Third Brother Su led the troops to win the court!" A young man named Su Ting jumped and screamed, and his originally fair face had become dark after running around these days.

Su Congfang nodded again and again, her face was full of smiles, and she said a few times: "Okay!" Later, he hurriedly invited Taishou Sun Shuwu to the front hall to speak, asking about the beginning and end of the war, Su Lie, who cared about the war, and the young people in the relatives flocked to the hall to listen to Taishou's speech.

Compared to men, women think much more simply.

After winning the battle, the Su family will not fall, the family will not be ruined, and they will not be scraped like goods, and then rewarded to strange and rough men, suffering a cruel unknown fate.

Looking at the festive faces in the courtyard, Yin Suhuan was also rarely happy, she went to the backyard as soon as possible and told her mother-in-law the good news; Hua Hongzhen stood under the eaves, looking at her husband sitting in the hall, smirking and listening to Taishou's story about the war, which made her feel inexplicably angry.

"So the army is going into the city?"

In the hall, Su Lie was as impatient as before, and when he heard that the army was about to march back to the city, he shouted to his father to bring his family to greet him.

At this time, there were many spies of the imperial court in the city, but there were almost no assassins, and the disciples of the three sects and the nine streams were more closely watched than the government officials, and they were more sensitive than anyone else.

Now that the army has entered the city, no one dares to make trouble.

Su Mansion was suddenly lively, men and women put on brand new clothes, were guarded by a large number of soldiers in the house, rode carriages, horses, or walked together, came to the main street in the East City Gate, and stood on the second floor of the tea house on the street to stop and watch.

The street below was already full of people on the inner and outer three floors, and those who couldn't see it behind could only stretch their necks and look at the city gate.

On the field, one war horse galloped into the camp, and only more than 100 horsemen followed the four generals to the assembly position. Su Chen and Guo Jia were already waiting with a hundred people, and when they saw the four people galloping, Su Chen turned over and dismounted, and arched his hands wordlessly.

Zhang Liao also got off the horse and returned the salute, followed by the generals Xu Qinghu and Zhang You dismounted, dragging the cloak and kneeling on half a knee, "The general Xu Qinghu (Zhang You) meets the little marquis!" ”

Lu Bu hesitated on horseback, and Zhang Liao shouted, "Feng Xian!" In the light shout, Fang just got off the BMW and arched his hand casually. Su Chen knew that Lu Bu was a man and temperament, and he was not annoyed, and after returning the salute one by one, he invited two more generals to get up.

At this time, there was still a team back, and it was Dong Zhuo and Le Jin who handed over the command to a deputy general, and asked him to bring the soldiers back to the camp, and only brought a few soldiers and horses to consciously defend Su Chen.

Soon after, the triumphant army entered the city through the east gate.

The people in the city crowded the streets, quietly looking at the few people who were urging the horses to go, Su Chen was dressed in silver chain mail, wearing a silver helmet, a knife hanging from his waist, his face was slightly black, his body was strong, and he completely supported the armor, making people forget the appearance of the son.

"Changsheng has changed a lot in these days!" Su Lie stood beside his father, looked at the figure that passed by his sight, and said enviously.

"It's getting better."

Su Congfang just smiled on his face, but he was very happy in his heart, the youngest son who had been buried before supported the family in the blink of an eye and became the pillar.

Listening to her father-in-law and husband's praise, Hua Hongzhen looked at Su Chen who rode over, remembering that she used to be sneering and ridiculed everywhere before, and her heart became more and more uncomfortable, and she was also a little uneasy.

On the long street, the people on the crowded street looked at the horses.

"Who is that general in a red robe and a beast armor? It's so majestic, what kind of weapon is he holding in his hand?! ”

"No wonder you can win the battle, with such a general here, are you still afraid of the imperial court?"

"It's just a few months of drought, they don't care if we live or die, what do you want the court to do!"

"Alas, I really don't know where the little marquis recruited so many fierce generals."

With the sound of words, the front again set off a noise and noise, and saw a number of soldiers and horses in the rear into the city, although the number was very small, but every foot soldier, cavalry on the armor mottled knife marks, some half of the body bloodstained, the knife and gun were murderous, so that the original noise suddenly quieted down when a few soldiers looked over.

The spies who blended into the crowd, looking at this scene, were also horrified in their hearts, in a short period of time, there were such tiger and wolf soldiers in Ding'an City.

Soon, the news spread out from their hands in the fastest way, the first to be delivered was Yunyu County, the third state assassin Tang Huaiyuan, who was ordered to send troops, gathered soldiers and horses, and under the urging of Fei Chong, who had been recuperating for half a month, Changchuan County received this shocking news before he opened up.

Fei Chong almost fell off the horse, flipped through the note with the news and read it several times, sat on the ground, and looked at the direction of Ding'an in amazement.

The stone in Tang Huaiyuan's heart finally landed, and at the same time he felt shocked, he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and after a good while, he took a breath and sighed: "Su Congfang, you have a good son!" It's out! ”

On the Wu Mansion of the Marquis of Yunyao, Wu Huizhi, who also recovered from the shock, excitedly slapped the handrails again and again, and after walking back and forth in the hall with his hands for a long time, he called his youngest son Wu Zixun.

"My father remembers that our house still owes a merchant in Ding'an a batch of grain, and when you are in the evening, you will pull the grain and straw of the two Zhuangzi outside together."

Wu Zixun naturally heard the meaning of the words, and excitedly arched his hand towards his father and said loudly: "Yes!" He turned around and ran out excitedly.

Wu Huizhi looked at his youngest son's excited appearance and couldn't help but shake his head.

"If you have half of Su Chen, even if Lao Tzu dies now, he can smile at Jiuquan."

However, his face sank with a smile again, defeated the soldiers and horses of the two states, and killed an assassin and captured an assassin, which undoubtedly gave a resounding slap in the face to the imperial court and the emperor in the Jinluan Palace.

Next is the army of the Siege.

"I've had enough. If you can win, the imperial army, Lao Tzu will rebel with you! ”

He thought so.

……

Housing.

The Fang family gathered together again, listening to the news brought back by the housekeeper from outside, dozens of people in the family became silent, and someone asked, "Can you inquire exactly?" ”

"Inquire exactly, the government has posted a list, let everyone try not to go to Ding'an City."

The steward stood in the middle of the hall and said with his hands: "Now it has spread everywhere that 60,000 soldiers and horses in Huaizhou and Yuzhou were defeated in one night, with 20,000 dead and wounded, and the prisoners were tied up and brought back to Ding'an City in strings, and Yang Jun, the assassin of Yuzhou, was captured alive. ”

Fang Wenye opened his mouth slightly, listening to these news seemed to be a fantasy, he had been to Ding'an City, there were very few soldiers and horses, and there was not much grain and straw because of the drought to help the victims, how to maintain an army and 60,000 soldiers and horses to fight? Or defeated overnight.

"Don't worry, the imperial army should be coming soon...... Moreover, all this has nothing to do with my family, do you understand? Xue Jun and the young son of the Su family, you are not allowed to say a word. ”

The hall spoke slowly, and there was also a maid listening to the root of the wall outside, running to the backyard with the news, and said through the closed doors and windows: "Miss, Su Gongzi has won a big victory!" ”

Bang!

The door leaf that was originally hung with a copper lock was directly kicked and kicked into the courtyard with the door and frame, Fang Xuejun rushed out of the house, grabbed the maid's thin shoulder, and shook it twice.

"Really?"

The maid felt that her brain was about to be shaken away like egg yolks, and she hurriedly shouted, "It's true, just now the slave maid heard the adults talking." ”

"Such a powerful ......"

Fang Xuejun withdrew his hand and put it behind him, his originally somewhat depressed expression perked, and he looked at the sun in the sky and smiled out of his dimples, "Sure enough, it's the man I fancied!" ”

……

The news of the defeat of the two states did not stop passing through Yunyu County for a moment, and the fast horse of the post station galloped wildly all night, and after killing another horse, it finally brought this news into the imperial city.

The spring thunder exploded above the imperial city, and the emperor who saw the news said, "Ah! With a bang, he knocked down everything he could, and even overturned the bookcase together.

Boom--Boom--

Lightning streaked across the gloomy sky, and the spring rain fell on the bustling city.

A carriage carrying water vapor through the streets into the imperial city, the Taishi Xiao Wenbi heard the emperor furious, and rushed to the palace early in the morning.

When I entered the palace, I asked the eunuchs in the vicinity, and learned that the Son of Heaven was not going to court today, and was reviewing the recital in the Wenhua Palace, so he hurried over.

There were guards everywhere outside, and a group of civil and military who were waiting to be summoned, many eunuchs came in and out with official documents, and the old man pulled a familiar eunuch and asked what happened last night.

The other party looked around and whispered: "The soldiers and horses of the two states were defeated, and Yang Jun was captured, and His Majesty smashed the dormitory last night." ”

Xiao Wenbi was shocked in his heart, then his eyes widened, and he said in a low voice: "The rebellious Su family? ”

"Isn't it, 60,000 people, the Ding'an army wiped them all out overnight."

"...... overnight" Xiao Wenbi couldn't say the next words in horror, looking at the little eunuch who left, he had a sense of absurdity.

Stunned, and then silent, the old man then took a step, walked to the main hall, and asked the eunuch to go in to report, and soon, the eunuch who came out let him in, along with several generals.

Stepping into the threshold, there were already a group of civil and military standing in the hall, and Emperor Beigongye threw some folds into the box for the eunuch to take away, and then got up to speak.

“…… A group of old ministers, a state official, how good they were in the past, and the lost soldiers who were beaten in turn were simply ashamed! ”

“…… How many soldiers and horses can there be in a county and how many elites can there be? If you look at the news handed over, there are less than 20,000 local soldiers, and they are so rampant, don't you feel ashamed?! ”

The words that scolded angrily from above, no one dared to continue, one by one drooping their heads and still reprimanded by the Son of Heaven, only the general He Jinchen was stubborn, he was already five out of fifty, how could he swallow this breath, and stepped forward and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the soldiers and horses in Beijing have been trained, and the ministers can order the troops to allocate the generals, personally lead the troops to Rongzhou, and dedicate the heads of the Su family father and son to Your Majesty!" ”

"Go down and prepare, I promise you 100,000 elites!"

Beigong Ye tapped his finger on the table, "Defeated, what is in front of me is your head!" ”

After a few more words, after dealing with military affairs, the emperor waved everyone away, and Xiao Wenbi, who had been staying next to him, had the opportunity to come and visit.

"There are no outsiders here, and Master doesn't have to salute...... I ......"

Beigongye rubbed the bridge of his nose, pressed his hand, let the old man hang his hand, and he sat back behind the dragon case, "I know what the master is going to say and ask when he comes over, but today I am tired." ”

The old man wanted to speak, but then he was interrupted by Beigongye: "I have announced to the world that the Su family in Ding'an, Rongzhou, is full of anti-thieves, everyone will be punished, the army will be drawn in a few days, I must take Ding'an City, otherwise it will ......"

"Otherwise, I am afraid that I will not be able to implement the matter of cutting the domain, and the marquis of various states will inevitably give birth to his heart."

Xiao Wenbi looked at the carefully cultivated Son of Heaven, and there were complicated emotions in his eyes.

In the afternoon, the official letter announcing the world was delivered to the states.

After the news of the Su family's murder and rebellion became a sensation in all states, it also confirmed the previous rumors that the soldiers and horses in the two states were killed and defeated.

The states are near and far, mostly hearsay, and now the announcement is shocking news for many people, and it is undoubtedly a huge wave in the Yan country that has been peaceful for decades.

Those princes of various states who came back from Yanjing were also on the way, or at home, and they were shocked and couldn't speak, and their parents were even more silent.

The undercurrent of the entire Yan Kingdom was turbulent, and everyone's eyes were invariably fixed on the rebellious 100,000 troops of the imperial court.

At the end of January.

Yanjing soldiers and horses surged, heading towards Rongzhou.
