Chapter 32: Luoyang meets Xiang Yuanjie by chance
Leaving the barracks, Xiao Ling'er felt extremely relaxed, the two of them drove forward side by side, turned to look at Qu Bingru, and found that she was a little sad, thinking that she might have thought of her relatives. Xiao Ling'er asked, "Bing'er, let's go to Treasure Island after sending the information." β
Qu Bingru was a little surprised: "What are you going to do?"
"I'll walk around with you, and maybe I'll find a little clue about your father. β
Qu Bingru pondered for a moment: "Smile on your face, really, are you willing to walk around with me?"
"Of course, I'm willing to go with you. β
Qu Bingru said like a naΓ―ve child: "Okay, this is what you said, we will go to the rivers and lakes after sending the information, and we are not allowed to regret it, but ......" The smile on Qu Bingru's face disappeared instantly, "You are a general now, you can't leave the barracks casually." β
Xiao Ling'er thought for a while and said, "It's okay, I'll make it clear to General Zhang, besides, I may not be able to do a good job as a general." He turned his head to look at Qu Bing and smiled, "I'm still happy with you." β
Two blushes appeared on Qu Bingru's face, and the corners of his mouth rose: "Hmph, you lied and ignored you." With that, he beat his horse and ran forward.
Xiao Ling'er smiled: "I also urged the horse to chase after me." β
"Brother Xiao, it's getting dark, let's hurry up!"
"We're going to the rear of the Jin soldiers now, so we'll have to be careful all the way and see if we can find a place to stay. β
"Well, Brother Xiao, let's go!"
......
Under the city of Xuzhou, the sound of killing shook the sky, and Zhang Xian commanded the soldiers of the Yuejia army to attack the city.
Han Chang resisted desperately, and the Yuejia army was frustrated in several waves of siege of the city, and the state was furious, and ordered the trebuchet to replace ordinary stones with sulfur saltpeter, pour fire oil, and then light the fire, and throw it at the city, and the sulfur fire oil hit the city head and then stained the Jin soldiers, only to burn the Jin soldiers to shout and roll everywhere.
Zhang Xian's troops attacked from the four gates again, Li He, Xu Shiguang and others commanded the soldiers, braved arrows, wood and stones, rushed to the city, set up a cloud ladder, Xu Shiguang shouted loudly, danced the board axe, rushed to the north gate of the city, how could the golden soldiers defending the city resist, let out a shout, and all ran away.
Han Changzheng was commanding the Jin soldiers to resist Zhang Xian at the south gate, and when he heard that the north gate was lost, he knew that he couldn't hold it, so he hurriedly called for a breakthrough, and took the remaining Jin soldiers to kill him from the east gate.
The Yuejia army captured Xuzhou in half a day, and the morale of the whole army was greatly boosted. Xuzhou was originally the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty, and almost all the people in the city were Han Chinese, and they heard that it was the Yuejia army that attacked the city, so they spontaneously organized to respond in the city and captured many Jin soldiers alive.
The capture of Xuzhou opened up a victorious situation for Yue Fei's Northern Expedition, and at the same time, another army of Yue's army, defeated the Jin army by Niu Gao's left army on Jingxi Road, and has now moved to Ruzhou, Zhang Xian ordered Dong Xian's Tabai army and Yao Zheng's Youyi army to stay in Xuzhou City, and he led the army eastward to join Niu Gao and others, and led the army to Huaining Mansion.
Besides, Xiao Linger and Qu Bingru traveled for a few days before arriving in Luoyang, although they met a lot of Jin soldiers along the way, but because both of them became ordinary people, they did not attract the attention of Jin Bing.
Under the rule of the Jin people, the people of Luoyang could not adapt to the nomadic life habits of the Jin people, which led to the people's livelihood complaints, which caused many farmers to rise up to resist, and there were many farmers who resisted the gold heroes, such as Liang Xing, Dong Rong, Zhao Yun, Li Jin, Niu Xian, Zhang Yu, etc., led many anti-Jin righteous people to accept Yue Fei's mission of "crossing the Yellow River, killing the gold thieves, and seizing the state and county" in the rear of the Jin people, and constantly harassed the Jin people, and achieved many victories.
Xiao Ling'er and Qu Bingru walked on the streets of Luoyang, only to see that the scene was like a depression, most of the pedestrians were wearing Jin Ren costumes, and there were not a few people wearing Hanfu, their faces were heavy, the two finally found an inn, the boss glanced at Xiao Linger and Qu Bingru and said: "The two little brothers are Han, be careful at night, because Jin Bing is coming to search." β
Xiao Ling'er looked at the people in the inn, who were also wearing Jin man costumes, and hurriedly asked, "This place has been occupied by the Jin people, what else are they searching?"
The boss pulled Xiao Ling'er aside and said softly: "Little brother doesn't know, now there are a lot of rebels in the city, constantly harassing the Jin people, making the Jin soldiers all over the city, the Han people in the city have to have their waist cards to go on the street, and those who don't have waist cards have to wear their clothes, and when they see the Han people who come here from other places without waist cards, they have to be arrested, and the two little brothers have to change into Jin people's clothes when they go out, otherwise they will be arrested, and some Jin people will cut people down without asking questions." β
"These golden people are really damned. Qu Bingru said hatefully beside him.
"Does the boss know who these righteous people are?" asked Xiao Ling'er.
The boss looked left and right: "I heard that they are all some heroes in the rivers and lakes, including beggars, chivalrous people, and monks." β
Xiao Ling'er heard the spirit and asked, "Is there an old beggar?" β
The boss shook his head, I don't know, these are some people with strong martial arts, who disappeared without a trace after killing Jin Bing, no one has ever seen it?"
When the boss turned to leave, he turned around and said, "I think you two should be homeless brothers, I'll get you two sets of golden clothes to change into." β
After thanking the boss, the two came to the room, and after a while, the boss asked the guy to bring two sets of gold clothes, Qu Bingru took a look: "Let me wear the clothes of a gold thief, don't even think about it, and I won't wear it if I am killed." β
Xiao Ling'er knew that she was because of Jin Bing's affairs on Treasure Island, and said to her: "I don't wear them either, why should I wear their clothes, this is the territory of the Song people, this is our country, why should we grovel in our own territory." β
Qu Bingru laughed: "This is General Xiao in my heart, my brother Xiao." β
The two of them ate a little casually, and from time to time they heard the sound of Jin soldiers running and shouting on the street, and they tossed until the evening.
At night, the two remembered what the boss said, and Qu Bingru asked Xiao Ling'er: "Jin Bing is really going to search in a while, aren't you afraid?"
Xiao Ling'er said: "Don't be afraid, it's a big deal to kill a few golden soldiers and run out." β
As soon as the words fell, a voice came from outside the window: "Well said, this is my good Song man." β
Xiao Lingshou was shocked: "Who." β
He Qu Bingru opened the door and saw a young man wearing Hanfu standing outside the door.
Xiao Ling'er looked at the young man in front of her and shouted happily: "Is it a hero?"
The young man was stunned for a moment: "You know me?"
Xiao Ling'er said: "I saw Xiang Daxia's fighting on the competition platform on Treasure Island, and a sword beat them to the ground. β
This person is Xiang Yuanjie, the "Dragon Yin Sword", when he heard that Xiao Ling'er knew himself, he couldn't remember where he had seen this person for a while, but he also lived in this inn, and today he saw that these two Han people with weapons were a little different, so he paid attention to it, and just now he passed by the window of the two people, heard the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but say a word.
Qu Bingru saw that the two knew each other, and said on the side: "Let's go into the house and talk." β
Xiang Yuanjie entered the house, Xiao Ling'er told him about Treasure Island, heard Xiang Yuanjie nodded, and thought of Jin Bing's siege of martial arts people at that time, and clenched his fists tightly: "These gold thieves, they really damn it." β
Hearing that the two of them were members of Yue's army, Xiang Yuanjie was very happy: "I have long heard that Marshal Yue started the Northern Expedition, and the people of Luoyang have been waiting for this day for a long time. β
Xiao Ling'er asked, "Why did Xiang Daxia appear here?"
Xiang Yuanjie said: "This is a long story. β
