Chapter 163: Jin Huang's Life Experience
Krizon soldiers.
Yuan Neng has a handsome seal, and Tokugawa Yoshichen held the handsome flag. On the left is Liu Zexin and the leaders of the attendants, on the right are Wei Qimu, Huang Zhen, Xiao Luoxia, and Jin Huang, and behind are 500 young and strong attendants with a whole bundle of swords. A group of people rushed to the state. When we arrived at Nambatsu, there were already ten large ships and dozens of small boats. The people dismounted and changed boats, and continued on their way.
Along the way, Huang Zhen continued to instruct Xiao Luoxia martial arts. Xiao Luoxia is also quite diligent, completely ignoring the hard work, still working hard day and night.
After traveling by sea for several days, Yuan Neng and others finally approached the state. The smoke is vast, and an isolated island looms in the sea fog, which is the lower county of the state and the place where the state government is located.
Closer, the outline of the island becomes clearer, with a lot of vegetation, mountains and rocks, and a high city standing on it. Wei Qimu glimpsed the outside of Xia County from afar, there were flags fluttering, and there were intermittent sounds of people and horses fighting and the overlapping sound of Jin Ge.
Yuan Nengyou urged the boats to move forward quickly, and when they were about to reach the shore, suddenly arrows flew like rain in the sky, shooting at the ships, and even more than a dozen people fell into the water. It turned out that Han Kou had been prepared for a long time, and they calculated that there would be people galloping to help the state, so they secretly ambushed a row of archers here, and shot when they saw the ship.
Yuan Neng was shocked but not confused, and immediately ordered the ships to retreat and avoid the rain of arrows first. The ships retreated a stone's throw and floated on the water. Yuan Neng saw that the state government was close at hand but could not dock the ship and land, so he couldn't help but feel worried, so he discussed countermeasures with everyone.
Yanazawa said, "Don't worry, my lord, I would like to take dozens of people who are well versed in water to dive ashore and kill all the archers, so that the army can berth the ship calmly. 」
Yuan Nengyou nodded silently, and everyone applauded, only Jin Huang sighed.
Wei Qimu knew that Jin Huang was a Silla person, and he also knew that he couldn't bear to see all the Silla people die under Yanazawa's sword. Wei Qimu sent a message to Jin Huang and said, "Brother Jin is relieved for the time being, wait for you and I to break a way, disperse Han Kou, and send everyone ashore. 」
Jin Huang looked at Wei Qimu and felt a burst of gratitude in his heart. Wei Qimu said to Yanazawa again: "Since Han Kou is ambushing the crossbowmen on the shore, it must be expected that there will be people and horses galloping to help the state. If this is the case, I am afraid that we will dive ashore, and Brother Yanagisawa does not have to risk his life. 」
Yanazawa had already let go of his prejudices when Wei Qimu was willing to go with them to the other state, and when he saw that Wei Qimu was concerned about his own safety, he asked, "What is the best plan for Qi Mu-kun?"
Wei Qimu persuaded everyone that he and Jin Huang would sail ashore, pioneer Han Kou, and all the ships would dock together. Yanazawa Nobu knew that Wei Qimu's martial arts were above him, and he no longer insisted that he should be the first to land. So, Wei Qimu and Jin Huang drove a small boat and went straight to the shore. Jin shook the oar, and Wei Qimu stood proudly on the bow of the boat. The boat went forward with a stone's throw away, and sure enough, the arrows flew like rain. Wei Qimu pulled out the ink knife, only to see the white light flickering endlessly, and all the arrows fell into the water. When the boat was still more than ten feet from the shore, Wei Qimu had already flown up and swept straight over. Those Han Kou saw a person in the sky flying with his arms outstretched, and he was not afraid of arrows, thinking that it was a divine soldier descending from heaven, but he forgot to release arrows into the sky for a while.
Wei Qimu had not yet landed, and the ink knife in his hand was swung continuously, and the white light was like a rainbow, cutting all the bows and crossbows and arrows into two. The Han Kou were so frightened by Wei Qimu that they lost their souls, and now the bow and arrow were destroyed, and they didn't dare to draw their swords and draw their blades, so they scattered in a hurry.
Yuan Neng saw that Wei Qimu really dispersed the Han Kou along the coast, so he ordered the ships to move forward. After everyone landed on the shore, Yuan Nengyou lined up on the shore with his back, and discussed with the generals and Wei Qimu and others: "I want to follow the example of Han Xin, a famous general in Middle-earth, and wait for the enemy here, fight against the water, and everyone will be able to defeat Han Kou after death, what do you think?"
All the generals applauded. Wei Qimu frowned slightly, and said, "In the past, Han Xin fought against the water, and it was caused by the dragon and his impatience to light the enemy. Now that Han Kou is about to break through the state capital, why should he divide his troops to fight against the lords? If Han Kou does not come, what good will it do to carry the water?"
Yuan Nengyou suddenly woke up after hearing this, and said gratefully: "I don't want to know how to use soldiers, and I have an epiphany when I say it, I don't know how to use soldiers!
Wei Qimu said: "Now that the heavy troops are pressing the city, there is no good way but to get in touch with the defenders in the city first, and at the appointed time, the internal and external attacks may be defeated. 」
Yuan Nengyou groaned: "Even so, Han Kou surrounded the palace like an iron bucket, but I am afraid that the goshawk flying insects will not be able to pass, how can the messenger enter the city?"
Yanagisawa said, "I am willing to give up my life to deliver the letter!"
Tokugawa Yoshitomi hurriedly said, "I'll go too!"
Wei Qimu said, "Lord Yuan still needs two guards, so it's better to let Wei go on the road on his behalf." 」
Yuan Nengyou knew that Wei Qimu was bold, so he nodded and said, "That's very good. 」
Wei Qimu said: "I also need a token for adults as a certificate. 」
Yuan Neng You took out the handsome seal and said, "Take this seal as a letter, and see the seal as if you see me." The commander of the soldiers and horses of the state government is called Ono Cen Attack, it is my old friend, you just need to say that I am here, and he will definitely receive you. 」
Wei Qimu nodded, and said to Huang Zhen, "Shi'er, you can go with me and be a translator." 」
Huang Zhen's head. Xiao Luo Xia said in his heart: "I knew that there was a master to do the translation, so why do you still let me learn this damn Chinese language?"
Wei Qimu and Huang Zhen said goodbye to everyone and rushed to the east gate. Wei Qimu whispered to Huang Zhen, "We only need to enter the city, and we don't need to kill anyone. 」
When Huang Zhen heard this, he couldn't help but think of the scene when the two of them were on the battlefield in Yanzhou for the first time, when Wei Qimu actually started a fool on the battlefield. Huang Zhen knew that Wei Qimu was kind-hearted and didn't like to kill, and thought that he was now known as a "knife slaughter", and felt that he owed him a large part of it, and took pity on him.
Huang Zhen nodded and said gently, "Well, I know. 」
Wei Qimu and Huang Zhen, one holding a knife and the other fighting a sword, broke into the crowd side by side. There were five or six thousand Han Kou besieging the city, and more than 1,000 people outside the eastern gate. Wei Qimu and Huang Zhen stepped on the flag and stepped on people, speeding over the heads of the crowd. Han Kou and the two of them suddenly broke in from the rear, causing a commotion, and then slashed and poked the tips of the blades and guns in their hands at Wei Qimu and Huang Zhen, but they were easily removed by the two of them with a sword. Wei Qimu and Huang Zhen did not stop for a moment along the way, and they had the momentum of "one person rushes, and a thousand troops are easy". In just a quarter of an hour, they rushed under the city walls.
The improvised ladders that Han Kou used to ascend the city were burned and shattered, and the wreckage was piled up under the city walls. This is also the main reason why Han Kou was unable to attack the state government for a while.
Huang Zhen didn't ask Wei Qimu how to jump on the wall, she just followed him silently, she believed that Wei Qimu was confident.
Wei Qimu forced back the group of Han Kou who stepped forward with a knife, and said to Huang Zhen, "I'll go up the wall first, and you follow me." 」
Huang Zhen nodded gently. Wei Qimu jumped hard and stepped on the city wall, the city wall was seven or eight zhang high, Wei Qimu suddenly inserted the ink knife in mid-air into the gap between the wall tiles, and the ink knife was inserted straight into the city wall, and the wall chips flew for a while. Wei Qimu used the power of this knife to turn over and step on the knife. At this time, Huang Zhen had also jumped into the air, and Wei Qimu stretched out his right arm, just following the Rouyi sent by Huang Zhen. He used his right arm to hold Huang Zhen in his arms. A flurry of arrows rang out from under the city, and they were all swept down by swords.
Wei Qimu said to Huang Zhen in his arms, "You go up first, and I will arrive later." 」
Huang Zhen nodded gently. Wei Qimu gently sent Huang Zhen up, and Huang Zhen also jumped hard again, and jumped on the wall. Before Huang Zhen's feet hit the ground, Wei Qimu had already pulled out the ink knife and turned it over. The two jumped onto the wall together, regardless of front and back.
The defenders of the opposite state on the city wall were shocked and frightened when they saw that Wei Qimu and the others easily climbed the wall. They also saw Han Kou's attack on them, and they didn't know whether they were friends or foes, so they surrounded them and didn't dare to act rashly for a while.
Huang Zhen said in the Japanese language, "We are the messengers of the Lord Yuanneng to see your commander Ono Cen attack. 」
When the defenders heard the words "Yuan Neng You", they immediately became excited, and some of them went to send a message to Ono Cen. After a while, a middle-aged general with resolute eyebrows and full armor ran over from the castle tower - it was Ono Cento.
The Ono family was originally a famous family in the old Japanese dynasty and has always been in charge of important military affairs. But by this time, the family had long since declined, and the clansmen could only be military generals on the border, unable to interfere in the government affairs.
Wei Qimu sent the handsome seal that Yuan Neng had to Ono Cen's eyes. Ono Cen Attack saw Shuai Yin and said excitedly, "It's really Lord Yuan who is here! I won't die on this day!" He was already ready to destroy the city.
Huang Zhen said: "Lord Yuan has led his men and horses to the shore, and he asked the two of us to tell the general that at the third watch tonight, he will attack from the shore, and the general will lead his men and horses to kill from the west gate. 」
Ono Cen attacked, "Gen-sama came here from Heiankyo to board the ship from the east, why did he enter through the west gate?"
Huang Zhen said: "Lord Yuan's aid has been known to Han Kou, presumably they will also ambush people at the east gate, so they will be at the west gate. 」
The agreement was completed, and Ono Cen immediately organized a bunch of men and horses to boost morale, and only waited for the sky-high flames at the third watch.
In the middle of the night, the sea breeze howls and the moon is cooler than snow. Suddenly, there was a loud shout outside the west gate of the city, and the flames were everywhere, and it was Yuan Nengyou who went around to the west and killed him.
Ono Cen opened the west gate and poured out his army. Han Kou outside the west gate was attacked from inside and outside, and he was defeated for a while, and almost 500 people from Yuan Neng broke through the defense line. But it didn't take long for Han Kou's other three men to immediately gallop to the West Gate. The wooing Han Kou seems to be chaotic, quite methodical, and responds very quickly.
Jin Huang in the crowd saw that the two armies were seriously killed and wounded, and he struggled in his heart, so he simply closed his eyes and followed the flow of people to rise and fall at will.
The Yuan Nengyou and the defenders of the state were less than two thousand, while Han Kou had gathered three or four thousand people in an instant. Han Kou was so powerful that he blocked the two groups of men and horses and besieged them separately.
Yuan Neng has a lead waiter who is an elite who is one to be ten, but this Han Kou is very fierce, and his people are well-founded, mixed as one, quite majestic, and several times the strength of the army, and they actually trapped hundreds of people in Yuan Neng's heart, and the conflict is ineffective.
Wei Qimu saw that Yuan Nengyou and Ono Cen were trapped in the city tower, and he pondered in his heart. He was hesitating whether to intervene in the fight between the two armies, when Han Kou suddenly retreated, gave way to a big road, and let Yuan Nengyou's men and horses go.
Yuan Neng didn't think about whether there was any fraud in it, so he hurriedly led his men and horses to the city gate and joined forces with the defenders. That night, Ono Cen's men and horses were still back in the city, and Genneng and some of them were stationed outside the city, taking care of each other. Liu Zexin, Jin Huang, Xiao Luoxia and others entered the city with Yuan Nengyou.
Han Kou had receded like a tide, and the surroundings were empty, leaving only patches of mess and loneliness.
Early in the morning of the second day, Han Kou's 5,000 centaurs and ants gathered at the West Gate
A big man who looked like a general shouted to the city tower in Tang dialect: "Your Highness, Your Highness, is it you?"
Yuan Neng and the others looked at each other, not knowing who the "Highness" in Han Kou's mouth was. Jin Huang was shocked, and moved up to look at the crowd under the city, but saw that the person who shouted was wearing gold armor and golden helmets, hanging swords, riding horses, and was majestic, but it was his old acquaintance Cui Chongyi.
Jin Huang was surprised and delighted, and shouted, "General Cui......! How did you get here?"
When Cui Chongyi saw Jin Huang poking his head out, he immediately rolled off the horse, knelt on his knees, his eyes were full of tears, and said happily: "The sky has eyes, so that the humble position is looking for His Highness here!"
More than 5,000 Han Kou under the city fell to their knees for a while, shouting "Your Highness Chitose".
It turns out that this Kim Hwang is not an ordinary Silla wanted criminal, but the younger brother of Kim Hyun, the current lord of Silla, and is a contender for the throne and a loser.
This Choi Chongyi is the commander of the Silla army and horses guarding Gyeonggi, and he and Park Kyung-chung, the commander of the Silla Imperial Forest Army, one guards the capital and the other guards the palace. Park Kyung-chung obeyed Kim Hyun, while Choi Chong-yi worked for Kim Hwang.
After Kim Hyun ascended the throne, he forced Kim Hwang to kill, and after Kim Hwang escaped, he sent Park Kyung-chung to chase him down, and at the same time confiscated Choi Chongyi's military power. After Cui Chongyi learned that Jin Huang had fled overseas, he refused to hand over his military power. Cui Chongyi naturally couldn't gain a foothold in Silla, so he rushed out of Gyeonggi with more than 10,000 people from his headquarters, and experienced obstacles and interceptions along the way, losing nearly half. When he arrived at the beach, he had already run out of food, and he had no choice but to become a Han Kou and invade the state.
Yuan Neng sighed from the bottom of his heart: "No wonder there are as many as 5,000 Han Kou this time, and the military discipline is strict, it turns out that it is Silla's soldiers and horses!"
Yuan Nengyou admired Cui Chongyi very much, and the two talked happily. In the end, Yuan Nengyou reached an agreement with Cui Chongyi. Yuan Neng allowed Cui Chongyi's men and horses to be stationed in Shangxian first, firstly, to deter Han Kou, secondly, to rely on external forces, and thirdly, if Jin Huang ascended to the throne in the future, he would be friendly with the entire Silla, so why be afraid of Fujiwara Kijing at that time?
When Cui Chongyi led his men to Shangxian, Wei Qimu said to Jin Huang, "Brother Jin, I have something to trust. 」
