On February 20, three days had passed since the news of the defeat of 100,000 soldiers and horses arrived in Yanjing, and the news that more than 1,000 cavalry had burned and looted in Yanzhou was still being sent to the palace.

Emperor Beigongye had several fires for this, two granaries, a mine, and a pasture was looted last night, and a large number of cattle, sheep, and horses were slaughtered.

He was so angry that he summoned another commander of the Yanshan Iron Cavalry overnight, and scolded the other party with his head and face.

The latter repented of himself, and then personally led two thousand iron cavalry to kill Yanjing on the twenty-first day, joined the cavalry sent before, and after analyzing the terrain, roughly determined the possible route of the other party, all the way a thousand horsemen chased from north to south, and all the way two thousand horsemen intercepted below. However, the 1,000 iron horsemen who pursued and killed went south along the pasture until they met the commander who intercepted them, and there was no trace of the other party.

Gu Zhaowu is another commander among the 10,000 Yanshan cavalry, and now in the imperial city, counting the 2,000 cavalry who fled back before, there are only 6,000 cavalry left, and 3,000 cavalry are brought out.

I feel that the other party's anti-detection horse is much stronger than him.

"Commander Gu, what should I do next?" Deputy General Li Yuanying came up to ask, he is a typical northern man, with a big voice, a big skeleton, and a strong body.

"There are definitely people around the other party who are familiar with this place." Gu Zhaowu urged the horse to walk back and forth for a moment, and waved his whip: "A thousand days to prevent thieves, you will only be led by him...... Looking at the places he attacked, they were all related to the imperial court, and there was also a bazaar with the living slaves, and an equipment store for the dragon army. ”

"The equipment station is heavily guarded, there are two thousand dragon troops stationed, this person is a cavalry should not go over, but it is a bazaar of the slaves, there is not even a perimeter guardrail, only a tent, it is easy to attack there, and you can also grab supplies."

"Don't be careless, you and I will go our separate ways, I'll go to the Long Xiang Army to have a look, and you go to the bazaar of the slaves!"

As soon as the two of them combined, they each led their cavalry to leave, Gu Zhaowu went to the Longxiang army equipment camp in the west of Yanjing, and Li Yuanying went to the slave market in the northwest.

In the past, it was a trade in slaves, and then the slaves in the snow field began to rebel and attacked the border army, during the reign of the first emperor, seeing that they were brave and good at fighting, they intended to recruit an army, and awarded the patriarch of the slaves a bunch of good-sounding and useless official titles, and sent some rice grain and luxury things every year.

This place has become a bazaar for the living slaves, and every year there will be many precious medicinal materials, furs, beast bones, and ores from the snow fields and snow forests into Yanzhou.

When Li Yuanying led the cavalry over, it was still bustling and noisy, and after patrolling around the periphery, he rested his horses about a mile away from the market, and asked his subordinates to drink water and eat some dry food to replenish their strength.

He took a bite of jerky, got up from the stone, greeted one of his subordinates, and went to pee in the grass in front, just untied his belt and took off his pants, when a small sound suddenly came from afar, he turned his head, far away, there was dust and smoke, and the ground under his feet suddenly felt a slight shock.

Li Yuanying's teeth tightened, his eyes were furious, and he didn't wait for the pee to finish, he put on his pants and tied them while running, "Get on the horse!" Launched! He beckoned to his subordinates, he was just a warhorse, the tremor under his feet became more and more trembling, and the moment he turned over, a fiery red war horse dragged the oblique dust and smoke rapidly approaching.

The surrounding Yanshan Iron Cavalry gathered the whole team in panic.

He suddenly pulled out the spear inserted in the ground with his right hand, clamped the horse's belly, and rode up to meet him, Li Yuanying's martial arts are not bad, the realm has reached the fourth grade, and he is one higher than the commander Gu Zhaowu, but unfortunately he is not proficient in commanding the cavalry, the impact on both sides is staggered, the spear in his hand, through the painted halberd, the tip of the spear points to the opposite door At the same time, the figure on the back of the red horse suddenly pressed down the long soldier in his hand, directly jamming Li Yuanying's spear head, he let go of a hand and quickly touched his waist, and the knife slashed out horizontally!

The steel knife slashed through a cold glow -

But it's empty!

The figure on horseback sat upright and came back, the halberd rubbed the spear head and rubbed the spark, the halberd blade slashed away, and at the same time as the cloak was sprinkled, the blood light rose like an arrow to the sky.

- Tiger step Jianghuai!

In just a breath, the two war horses staggered, Li Yuanying's head was already spinning in the air, and his strong body sat on the horse's back, accompanying the horse to rush out a few steps before falling off the horse's back.

The red war horse turned back, the heavy horse's hooves stepped on the ground and stopped, and a halberd was inserted into the human head, picked up in the air. Lu Bu looked at the frightened Yan Guo Iron Cavalry, and in the next second, a thousand cavalry of the Ding'an Army rushed past him, rushing like raindrops to the cavalry that stayed in place and were scattered in formation.

The sudden movement attracted the traders and slaves in the bazaar to rush outside the bazaar, and then the cavalry group that turned around rushed towards them.

Soon after, after getting the news brought by the Yanshan cavalry who had escaped, Gu Zhaowu's eyes widened, and he rushed to the slave market with two thousand horsemen, where there were human corpses everywhere, all the tents were trampled on, and the surviving people were lying in a pool of blood, holding their calves that had been trampled off by iron hooves and wailing.

"Ahh......hh

Seeing the headless body of the deputy general, Gu Zhaowu almost wanted to go crazy, he asked people to bring the map, and suddenly found that the other party had attacked the slave market, which happened to enclose Yanjing in a semicircle.

Could it be ...... Will this cavalry finally go outside the south gate of Yanjing?

What are you going to do here with this cavalry burning?

Looking at the map and losing his mind for a moment, Gu Zhaowu immediately asked a group of people to stay behind to collect the corpses of his dead brothers, "The rest of the people get on the horse and follow me to Xuanyangmen!" ”

Go to the south gate and crush that cavalry!

At this time, the morning light rises above the clouds, and it is almost noon.

More than 1,900 Yanshan rode back to the south gate at the same time, the direction of the road under the feet extended, merged into the main post road leading to Xuanyang Gate, at this moment in and out of the capital of the business travelers, pedestrians, dignitaries and nobles are numerous, critical period, most of them have to be checked.

The long dragon seemed to enter the city, and suddenly a voice was talking in confusion.

"So, what's the ...... over there?"

Some people lowered their heads and looked at their feet: "Why is the ground shaking?" ”

On the Xuanyang Gate of Yanjing, the soldiers standing in front of the city tower raised their hands and put their eyebrows to look into the distance, under the sunlight and white clouds, the traders who had not yet come between the intertwined roads were fleeing, and on the vast field in the west, the cavalry team was like a tide under this sky, coming to the Xuanyang Gate.

"That's ...... Yanshan ride? ”

"That's not right!"

"Hurry up and ...... people below"

The soldiers on the city tower found that something was wrong, waved their hands downwards and shouted, the soldiers under the Xuanyang Gate drove away with spears, and there was also a group of soldiers dragging the horses in front of the city gate, shouting from time to time: "Close the city gate!" Close the gates! All out! ”

At the city gate, the carriages of merchants, pedestrians, and gentry all fled in panic at this moment.

Soon, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves rushed to Xuanyang Gate, and when it was four hundred paces away, the galloping red horses neighed and roared, and people stood up, and the figure cloak on horseback waved backwards.

Lu Bu pulled his bow and arrows, and with a whoosh, the arrows flew directly to the city tower, and the generals who were running to the battlements of the city tower drew their swords and slashed, the arrows broke, and the arrows slammed into the eaves of the city towers, and directly pierced through them, making a big hole in the window lattice.

The general and the surrounding soldiers looked at the two shocking holes nailed out, slightly stunned, they looked outside, the horse did not storm the city gate, but raised his hand, let the cavalry behind him run a little farther away to stop, and he carried a halberd slowly looking at the city tower.

Then, a majestic voice sounded.

"Emperor Yan—"

"Kitamiyano!!"

……

Palace.

Bei Miyano was sitting in the study and ordered the three selected envoys to go to the snow-capped mountain in the north to find the one hundred and twenty-nine-year-old sword god in the Prison White Mountain, and on the other side was the envoy to Xirong, and he also sorted out a list of gifts.

The last messenger was to go to Ding'an City, Rongzhou, to announce the decree to Su Chen.

The lights flickered to illuminate the study.

Beigongye sat behind the dragon case, and after confirming that there were no errors in all the letters and words, he handed it to the eunuch to take the seal, and sent away the three messengers, and after he was done, he was ready to go back to the harem to meet the queen and tease the prince, who had just turned four.

Footsteps sounded outside the eaves, and the eunuch said carefully outside the door: "Your Majesty, the Taishi is here." ”

The emperor, who was about to leave, stopped and frowned: "Let the Taishi come in." Saying that, he sat back on the dragon chair, and after a while, Xiao Wenbi walked in, his expression was a little ugly: "Your Majesty, there is something you need to know." ”

"What's the matter? About the cavalry of the rebels? ”

"Yes...... However, they appeared directly outside the Xuanyang Gate and kept calling His Majesty's name! ”

Beigong Ye frowned and got up, he also had the tall figure of a northern man, and he was silent for a while, "Go to the city wall, I want to see what this person is going to say!" ”

After he said this, he went out of the palace with Xiao Wenbi, the light car was simple, the seven hundred armor soldiers opened the road, went directly from the Suzaku Gate, along the post road in the city that only the imperial chariot or the triumphant soldiers could walk, until the Xuanyang Gate, strode up the city wall, and the surrounding soldiers knelt at the same time, the sound outside was even louder.

"Emperor Yan!"

"I'm here!"

Accompanied by the old man, Beigongye walked straight to the side of the general defending the city and stood still, he flicked his sleeves, pressed his hands on the wall battlements, and his voice was equally majestic: "I have heard of you, leading the cavalry to sweep through Gyeonggi, burning, killing and looting, coming and going like the wind, now come to Xuanyangmen to call my name, but what do you want?" ”

Hahaha!

Outside the city, Lu Bu rode his horse for a while, stopped at a distance of four hundred paces, looked up at the city and laughed, "A certain family has no request, just to see what the emperor of Yan looks like, so as not to kill the wrong one in the future!" ”

This was a mistake he made when he was in PY, otherwise he would have cut Cao Cao by then.

On the castle tower, the emperor's smile froze, and the muscles on his face twitched slightly. There was a group of soldiers and generals around, and even Xiao Wenbi couldn't bear it, so he immediately asked the soldiers in the city to shoot them with arrows.

The generals on the side were quite embarrassed: "Your Majesty, Taishi, that person is out of range." ”

When his words fell, Lu Bu outside the city leaned over and threw out a human head tied around the horse's neck, "I will return the head to you!" A certain family will give you another gift, so remember that I am—"

The moment the sound resounded, the horizontal horse pulled the bow, and the bowstring was pulled to the extreme with the feather arrow.

- Shoot the halberd!

The string sound collapsed, and the arrows came from "- Jiuyuan Lu Bu!" The loud shout 'whoosh' off the string, rushed directly to the city tower, and the speed was almost not finished in a breath, and it flew up to the city in an instant.

Breaking through the sky!

Xiao Wenbi stretched out his hand to push the emperor, Beigongye's whole body suddenly shook, and the moment the qi wave was forced to open, the arrow shook upward, and there was still a 'bang'.

The crown of heaven worn on the top of the head was nailed to the eaves of the tower.

"Hahaha...... Emperor Yanguo, when you come back, a certain family is really going to kill you! Lu Bu put away the bow and arrows, glanced at the west, there was the sound of horses' hooves, pulled out the Fang Tian painting halberd on the ground, turned the horse's head and galloped back to the thousand cavalry, and led them to the south, in the sun, only the red cloak was left in the wind.

Beigong Ye stood under the castle tower, and his lips were biting out a trace of blood.

I thought that when the other party saw him, what did he ask for, and he obeyed him, but he didn't expect it to be such a shame!

"Taishi, immediately execute your three strategies!"

He turned and walked straight down the city.

However, on the second day after the cavalry left, several fast horses rushed into Yanjing from two directions, frantically along the post road, and rushed directly into the Suzaku Avenue where the imperial chariot was acting, and rushed to the imperial city and the imperial palace.

This is even more frightening news from other states, no one dares to delay, and after receiving the information, the chief of the palace guard, Liu Changqing directly used his light body in the palace and went straight to the main hall where the emperor was.

Laizhou Haixinghou rebelled in the southeast by the sea!

Below Yanzhou, the governor of Rongzhou in the west rebelled!

Huaizhou Yonghuaihou, which is adjacent to Yuzhou, rebelled!

At present, only Fenzhou, Yunzhou, and Zhangzhou, which are the farthest away, have not yet heard from them. With the addition of the Marquis of Yunyao and the Marquis of Ding'an, there have been five marquis who have rebelled.

The entire imperial court shook, the entire Yan Kingdom shook, and countless people were frightened and dazed, and then ran around, using everything they could use.

Emperor Beigongye sat on the dragon chair with a dull gaze, and then drove all the Chinese martial artists out of the hall as if crazy, and he "Ah! In the case of the flying dragon, the folds, pen, ink and paper are flying all over the sky.

……

Su Chen, who returned to Ding'an City, heard the news in early March, as well as letters from several rebellious marquises, inviting them to form an alliance and join the Northern Expedition!
