The winter solstice is the beginning of the day, far away in Xiangyang Siluoyang.

In the past few days, the river seems to have returned to the flood season, and it is getting faster and faster day by day. "It has been several days since the confrontation between the Jin and Song dynasties across the river, and Zhao Chun has not forgotten to reconnoiter the enemy situation on the north bank while setting up camp, so it is inevitable that he will sometimes have to take risks himself. That night, he stood in the cold winter wind, thinking about the unusually sharp turbulence under his feet.

Early yesterday morning, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River must have suffered some thunderous blows, and there were even strange whirlpools of large and small sizes pushed upstream, and the magnificent scene of "flowing water in front of the door can still be west" was vividly deduced, and the aftermath is still more than now.

"It's also very human, do you know that what our army lacks is fighting spirit. Zhao Chun smiled, rejoiced in the bitterness, and prepared to return. Although his cronies did not approve of him personally taking risks, he always thought that if he received the favor of the country, what was the pity of dying?

It was also last night that after Yan Kuang sent a letter to him to persuade him to surrender, Zhao Chun immediately replied: Eighty years ago, Jingkang's change, Zhao's grandfather garrisoned Luoyang, resisted foreign captives and served the country loyally, but the enemy and the whole family were killed, only his father died nine times a life, but fortunately there are descendants to inherit. Since Zhao and your Jurchen do not share the sky, even if they fight single-handedly, they will also defend my Great Song River and Mountain!

sternly refused, but what he insisted on was not only his own personal enmity, but also the position of all the soldiers and civilians in the entire Xiangyang City related to their family and country, even when their morale was at their lowest, they went from old to young from strong to weak, no matter how weak their eyes were, the fire was never extinguished. Anyway, everything that should have gone has already gone...... Though he was supposed to come, he never came.

sighed, isolated and helpless, most of the comrades-in-arms who were officials in the same dynasty either died or withdrew, and they were too busy to take care of themselves wherever they asked for help...... However, at this critical juncture, what made him feel extremely excited was that God had fairly returned to him another comrade-in-arms—the reckless bandits he had previously been indifferent, ignored, and rejected because of prejudice. These people come from all over the world, such as Cangwu Yuefeng, Shandong Peng Yibin, Longshan Mu Ziteng, and Sichuan Shu Chen Xu, but they have the same mark, the Anti-Jin Alliance. Because of their strong combat effectiveness, the people everywhere they go are at ease, and it is strange that although they have very different personalities, none of them are proud of their achievements, and they always focus on the officers and soldiers, and listen to the dispatch and work together in the war.

At this point, Zhao Chun will feel that all the misery he suffered before is just the desire of fate to rise and suppress. What taught him even more was Meng Puyu, who was also brave and resourceful at a young age, and he was also born in the Jingxiang official army. When Pu Yu was studying with him, he happened to hear him burst out golden sentences, and immediately suggested to him that Zhao Gong's words were very wonderful, and I hurried to tell the legend to the soldiers! Zhao Chun was stunned for a moment, and made up his mind, yes, he should have put down the shelf of the regular army a long time ago, and publicly admitted that he was one with the militia, hated the same enemy, and was in the same boat with his son, which was not to lower his stature, but to raise his morale.

After the real fusion, Zhao Chun found that "Qi Ye Qi" was not strange in any aspect, because the other party's coach was Xu Yuan, a "martial arts Tianjiao" with a magnificent and hearty personality. At the beginning of the defeat of the Song army, those who fled from Jiangbei and those who were native to Jiangnan were even heroic men, and they were all waiting to see the current situation and were hesitant about whether to evacuate, and they were not necessarily willing to stay on the front line to support Zhao Chun's "sticking to Xiangyang"; and the so-called chivalrous warriors who came retrograde under the banner of rescue were also mixed...... During this period, Xu Yuan, who was humble and uncertain, played such a role in maintaining stability, not only stabilizing, rectifying, condensing and restraining all heroes in the name of Tianjiao, but also eliminating the ill-intentioned villains and promoting the real people with lofty ideals in the name of Tianjiao. In this way, there is no need to raise your arms, and the heroes of all directions are there.

In addition, there are two between the temple and the rivers and lakes are also important in this defense battle, that is the rich side of the Hunan Shenmen two sons, since the Song army retreated into Xiangyang, they as the leader of the business circle in the Jinghu area, took the initiative to call for raising huge sums of money, recruiting new braves, buying equipment, building ships, hoarding grain and grass...... Asked if it would affect the family business, Shen Qianxun replied, first the national industry, then the family business, Shen Yan smiled, don't turn money into knives and guns at this moment, waiting to be stabbed into the money warehouse by knives and guns?

Of course, amazement and warmth are relative, how Zhao Chun changes his opinion of the righteous army, how the righteous army is grateful to him. A few years ago, the Eastern Expedition to the West only cared about high spirits, and only after the whole country really surrendered to the army did not know that individual heroism did not work, even if the righteous army collectively charged into battle, it was not enough, and the vanguard and the people must have the same backing. With a solid backing like Zhao Chun, this battle to defend Xiangyang was won at least half from the beginning, not to mention that it was obvious from Zhao Chun's eyes that he was the same as them, and wanted to win the other half! So, even though he was repeatedly defeated in the early stage, Xu Yuan's heart gradually became calm: Very good, this is a fellow believer.

On the night of the sixteenth, Xu Yuan heard that Zhao Chun went to the river to inspect but did not return beyond expectations, and heard the drums not far away, so he couldn't help but feel moved, and immediately went to find him with Yue Feng.

Driving Ye Bian boat to follow the sound, the closer and closer the lights are bright, it was the Jin army back and forth on the river someone found Zhao Chun's boat, immediately launched more than ten ships to pursue, at this moment, the nearest one and Zhao Chun is only dozens of steps away, the speaker is trying to persuade Zhao Chun to surrender Wan Yan Kuang: "Lord Zhao, you Han people have a cloud of war, 'all the use of the law of war, the whole country first, the country second', Wanyan Kuang really does not want Xiangyang to be the same as Zaoyang, Guanghua, Shenmapo, was broken by the city, burned, the people are not happy. As far as Lord Zhao is concerned, the best way to protect your people and rivers and mountains is not to open the city without a war and shake hands and make peace? If Lord Zhao agrees, it will be a great thing for the country and the people, in line with the trend, and for the benefit of the future. ”

Zhao Chun didn't need to answer him, he looked at Jiang Chao with cold eyes, there were several waves of tide rolling westward.

Seeing that he did not allow it, Wan Yan Kuang increased his chips and continued: "There are indeed black sheep among our army, but the Holy Lord has already issued an edict warning all armies not to plunder and burn the city. If Xiangyang is occupied, it will inevitably be offended. Lord Zhao, Wan Yan Kuang is sincere, and he doesn't want talents like you to be dragged down by the forest bandits and consumed for no reason, after all, you have also seen the iron cavalry sweeping Jianghan behind me. ”

"Zaoyang, Guanghua, small victories and small defeats, the common thing in soldiers, so far, how have you ever taken our state capital? Such words are just to intimidate the people and farmers. You have military horses, I also have military horses, Lord Bi and the forest bandits in your mouth, have killed a lot of northern troops in Xiajiang, Qinghekou and other places, burning thousands of boats, I don't think you know. Zhao Chun is neither humble nor arrogant, and he is also righteous and stern in the face of danger, "Besides, what you won before was only ten times the number of men and horses to win less, and now our city is high and deep, the soldiers are strong and strong, and they are as solid as gold, if you can still be as powerful as a bamboo, why do you want to bend the army without a fight? ”

"Hahaha, it is difficult for the Song army to come up with a few generals who are not pustules, but they are all so stubborn. Let me ask you, although you Zhao Chun know the art of war, far better than Guo's Wu, Deng Youlong, and Qiu Wei, but when it comes to official positions, how many of you know that not only will you be drowned in the history of the future will be drowned, but I am afraid that you will also be questioned by the Song court for your desperate meritorious service. Wan Yan Kuang sneered, "Why don't you abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and go to my great gold?"

"The minister of the frontier, but he knows how to serve the country, does not leave a name for history, and is not afraid of right and wrong. Zhao Chun also sneered back, "Zhao Chun will not compare the official position with Lord Guo, Lord Wu, Lord Deng, and Lord Qiu, but only wants to compare the length of defending the city with the famous general Wei Xiaokuan of the Western Wei Dynasty. ”

"Fifty days later? Wan Yan Kuang knew that it was difficult to shake the obsession in his heart, and his eyes were evil, so he immediately ordered him to be killed here. Zhao Chun's personal soldiers around him didn't react, and Pu Yu quickly sacrificed his life to protect him, so that he would not be injured, but he was worried about his life.

Xu Yuan instantly shot head-on with the wind and arrows and Wanyan Kuang, and the wind swept away the thousands of troops from the side road, and in an instant, the arrows on the Yangtze River were like rain, soaring flames and flying rays, covering the sky and the moon, the war drums in front of the army were turbulent, the ships were panicked, and the water, fire, wind and thunder and swords, guns, swords, and halberds were full of colors.

"Xu Tianjiao, Yue Daxia, thank you. "After leaving the battle for a long time, when Xu and Yue also returned to safety, Zhao Chun's personal soldiers were still in shock, and Zhao Chun had already led Puyu forward and thanked them in person.

"Lord Zhao, it's us who should say thank you. Xu Yuan smiled and said humbly, Zhao Chun's words protect them all the time, and they are also his people in Xiangyang, so he taught them to be more thrilling.

Unlike Yue Feng who was slightly injured, Xu Yuan came and went unscathed, Zhao Chun and Pu Yu were surprised, back to the south bank, the soldiers came forward to ask long and short questions, and they were relieved to see that they were all right, and the officers and soldiers were still in awe of the cold Yue Feng, and they saw that Xu Yuan was more friendly, so they came forward one after another, and it didn't take long to show that they were all his supporters: "Can Tianjiao's Wind Arrow teach me?" "It is said that Feng Xudao is more powerful...... "Why, Tianjiao has not yet married a family!" I have a younger sister who is fifteen years old and I don't know ......."

During this time, he was obviously very busy, but there were more and more people who said goodbye to him, and every time he refused, he didn't know who he was thinking about, who was it? Is it Liu Wenyin, who refused to marry him but felt that he had a responsibility to take care of him, or the proud and invincible owner of the purple jade hairpin who left in tears in the end, "Fengyue?" unconsciously said this name, almost losing his mind in the crowd.

"Tianjiao. When he squeezed out of the crowd, Yue Feng, who was happy to be relaxed, finally stepped forward.

"Lord Zhao's whereabouts are top secret, and they shouldn't be revealed. He came back to his senses and immediately expressed his confusion to Yue Feng.

"But 'Suzaku' has been killed earlier, is it the newcomer to the control of the string village?" Yue Feng frowned.

"In Xiangyang City, most of them are known to us. Xu Yuan shook his head, it is better if there are fewer people and fewer people.

"The only change today is that the two apprentices of Hunan Huajiaquan came to Xiangyang, will they ......" Yue Feng lowered his voice.

"I'm going to fix a letter to ask the Chinese side. Xu Yuan locked his eyebrows, in the past, Yuziyan was disfigured by the fire, Lin Mo was wronged, and all the accidents are still vivid, and the source is the wedding banquet in Washington. In the early years on Yunwu Mountain, the two apprentices of the Hua family also framed Lin Qian for beating children, although they had a position in the ranking of Yunwu Mountain, their character was not very good.

After walking a few steps, Chen Xu had a solemn face, and walked towards this place in a hurry, the military advisor had never been so calm, and Peng Yibin and Mu Ziteng behind him should not be so flustered that they couldn't catch up.

"What's wrong?" Xu Yuan rarely saw everyone's look of "losing the backbone together", Peng Yibin was as irritable as Li Siwen a few days ago, because he saw the already healed Duan Yixin in Xiangyang City, and he wanted to execute her on the spot as the culprit of Wu Yue Shi Lei's death, but was persuaded by Mu Ziteng and Chen Xu together, and finally after Xu Yuan's mediation, Peng Yibin believed that Duan Yixin did not betray Shi Lei's whereabouts that night-

First, Duan Yixin had just woken up that night, and more than one person could testify, and second, the reason why Duan Yixin crossed the river together was precisely to repay Wu Yue Shilei's life-saving grace, she saved a lot of Song people on the way, just to wash away the sin of revenge. Although Xu Yuan believed in her sincerity, he didn't want her to become the second Chu Fengyue, so he never let her contact the front line of the battle, one to avoid suspicion, and the other to avoid confrontation with the old master, saying, Miss Duan thought that she would go back immediately after repaying her kindness. Who knows if Wanyan will join the war and where she will stand then?

Duan Yixin agreed, in fact, this is how she has always been active in the second line. A person like her, although she is indifferent to the righteousness of her family and country, it is impossible for her to do anything to help the Song Dynasty destroy the Jin, and she can only do the righteousness of hoeing the strong and helping the weak in the rear far away from the battlefield, so as to promote the peace of the Jin and Song dynasties as soon as possible, "I believe that if the Wu family and his wife are still alive, they will also have such a will." "Then she'll do it for them.

"Xinyu, Shi Lei, although your life is short, it has changed the path of many people. "Xu Yuan once sacrificed Wu Shi and the others as elders, and they were all his protégés in the Yunwu Mountain competition.

Unexpectedly, tonight, it seems that another person wants him to sacrifice Yao: "Tianjiao, the lord of him!"

Youling Villa?!Crazy?!Life and death are uncertain?!

No wonder the Yangtze River was unusually turbulent yesterday, and today it suddenly goes crazy from time to time! Dare to love that is the embodiment of your Lin Qian. Not only that, the old man in Fan Jing also said that the lord had been seriously injured before he fell into the water, and he had lost too much blood and physical exhaustion, and if you didn't stop you, what would you eat! Such a big storm was swept in, and normal people were still in a catastrophe, not to mention that he was a half-dead man whose life was in danger and might even lose his desire to live...... In other words, there is less bad luck.

The frost hit everyone sideways, and even Xu Yuan almost moved his footsteps.

But he understands that this place can't lose all the backbone, Feng Xiaoyin doesn't know if it has been rescued, and someone must stand at all times when the three-legged tripod stands. Wu Zi was calm and smiled peacefully: "Fortunately, the battle of Hezhou has been won, and there will be more soldiers and horses who can reinforce Xiangyang." ”

"But the lord ...... him," Chen Xu was still anxious.

"Our Lord cannot die. Xu Yuan smiled, patted Chen Xu and others on the shoulders several times as if nothing happened, and walked back to the handsome tent, but his heart was in chaos.

In an eventful autumn, the two people he cared about the most, Lin Qian and Song Heng, were uncomfortable.

But although Song Heng taught him to worry, at least he was sure to be alive!



Speaking of the Western Front, the Song army has been smooth sailing for most of the month, because Chu Fengliu was seriously injured and fell into a coma for a period of time, Song Heng rose rapidly under the cultivation of Han Zeye, and even Cao Xuan had the leisure to go back to the rear to explore Wu Xizhong's traitor...... But two days ago, there was a sudden accident, Song Heng had already defeated Wan Yan Gang and surrounded him heavily, who expected that just in front of the battle, when he was kind-hearted and asked about the injury of a child in distress, he was suddenly stabbed into his right chest with a dagger in his hand with his pure eyes......

That child is not a gangster, he is just a frightened bird who wants to protect himself, he has difficulty breathing when he sees this black-clothed Xuanjia, he is confused, poor Song Heng's mind is simple and defenseless, he was stabbed by this child and lost consciousness on the spot, and there is no way to hold him responsible.

Although Chu Fengliu was in good health, he still took the opportunity to lead the main force to attack, and carried out a counter-encirclement against the Song army, which had won a great victory, not only successfully relieved the danger of Wanyan Gang, but also immediately gathered elite troops to pursue the victory, and launched a strong attack on the Han Zeye garrison.

Thanks to Cao Xuan's timely return and Han Zeye's joint defense, he was able to stop Chu Fengliu's onslaught, and Han Zeye went to the front line to pull Song Heng out of the pile of corpses, and after he sobered up, Han Zeye asked him: "Can you learn a lesson? "This is only a 1 in 10,000 possibility, you can't waste food because of choking, and even a child doesn't dare to appease ......" Song Heng's eyes were still clear. Although Han Zeye was stunned, he had always had a cold face, but he did not make an exception for him: "If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, you are a general who affects the whole army." Promise me to protect myself, since I want to do good and promote good, I can't let myself be hurt by good first. ”

"Oh......" Of course, Song Heng knew that Han Zeye had always been unsympathetic on the battlefield, although everything was based on his horse's head, but this matter could only be contrary to the yang and the yin: could it be said that when appeasing the wounded, it was necessary to set up precautions? It was also funny to think about it, so he took the opportunity to write the battle report in person and informed Xu Yuan, Xu Yuan criticized Song Heng fiercely, and only responded seriously with a sentence of "listen to him". Regardless of the art of war, or dealing with people, you have to listen to Han Zeye for everything, this is a military order that must not be disobeyed.

"Fortunately, although Song Heng is naïve, he is obedient and fulfilling, and he has not hidden his flaws in the past month, and he is worthy of a big responsibility. Xu Yuan felt that there was no need to mention the matter of the Western Front to everyone, although Lin Qian was missing on the Eastern Front, he was victorious in Hezhou, and it should not have a negative impact on everyone, "As for the lord, I hope he will return as soon as possible." ”

Thanks to Xu Yuanqiangyan's calmness and calming the military spirit of the Song army in the middle line, he could not rest in peace until midnight, and before the next day, Wan Yan Kuang was annoyed and angry because he could not lure him to surrender, and he did his best to attack Xiangyang.

The sound of water in the Yangtze River is bursting, the fire on the high city is dignified, Zhao Chun, Shen Yan, Shen Qianxun, and Chen Xu have already led the crowd to prepare bows and crossbows and thunderbolts;

With iron bones as clothes and blood as the front, Xu Yuan, Yue Feng, Mu Ziteng, and Peng Yibin led the death squad out of the camp to attack many times.

"Wan Yan Kuang has been losing for several days, and further reinforcements may be dispatched. It is expected to exceed 100,000. "It's not even a month away, the new startled salamander is already a capable leader in the sky, first cooperated to kill the Vermilion Bird, and then contacted no less than ten times from a distance and close distance, Luo Yuankong only knew that she was a woman who was not good-looking, and the body with the help of the body seemed to be a caretaker, in addition to collecting intelligence, the startled salamander also took over Chu Fengxue and infiltrated the control string village, which was really the most down-to-earth and diligent one he had ever seen.

"It is extremely difficult for Wanyan Kuang to attack head-on, even if there are 100,000 reinforcements, it may be possible to avoid the real attack from the side, and Lord Zhao focuses on deploying side defense. While Chen Xu analyzed Zhao Chun, Luo Yuankong conveyed to him the news about Lin Qian from Zhen Gang. The insistence on smashing the edge lasted for at least three days, and Xu Yuan suddenly sat down when he heard that he was still standing, and it took a long time to meet everyone's joyful gaze with relief: "Is there news?"



On November 14, the rain was heavy, the sky was dark, and he almost couldn't catch the sword in the hurricane.

It doesn't matter if he can't catch it, once upon a time, once upon a time, once he held the evil thing, he didn't have himself, and it always appeared in front of everyone in blood.

The road ahead was pitch black, with no shore in sight, and the water was covered with sharp thorns, one touch and one blood, and the pain was confused, and the struggle was restless.

The blood kept pulling from his body, the temperature kept peeling off his shell, and his heart was like a vine growing out: this fate is too hard, Yin'er, I'm here to accompany you......

He forgot the existence of Qingzhou and Fan Jing, not to mention what they said, he only remembered that the only impression he had before he entered the demon was that Yin'er was already stiff, except for the obsession of begging for death, he only had the desire to kill people to vent his anger, but if there was anything wrong with others, he had to be torn apart by him, not to mention that he didn't recognize that the others were Song or Jin, how could he kill indiscriminately, it was better to die.

But he didn't know that it was him who was getting cold, he was the one who was dying, and he was the one who was worried...... Once he fell heavily in that alien dimension of nowhere, the blood and viscera on his body sped up and splashed in all directions, but he didn't leave it for him, take it and take it, I don't want it anyway, he laughed wildly in the nightmare, and he wanted to tear off the sad intestine with his own hands.

Then how did this state of enchantment be eliminated, why was his life, by whom, and why was it forcibly kept? Lin Qian only felt that there was blood flowing in his throat, and then his body changed from warm to hot, blazing, extremely hot, getting hotter and hotter, that should be the hope of life? The blood flow, but it was so delicate that it did not belong to his mustard life.

The first moment he regained consciousness, he even thought that he was still in the Qianxi Demon Gate, as if he had just killed for Yunyan and Yuze, and the same scene was reincarnated again, but at that time, it was still an eight-year-old girl who was lying on him to comfort and cry, and now, it was still her, but she was sixteen years old, her face was pale, her eyes were full of tears, she was lying on him and hugged him tightly and did not allow him to move, and there was obviously a wound on her arm that was cut with his hatred knife and was bandaged, because she was still asleep because of the loss of strength and blood, so she did not move away from him.

“...... He stared at her for a long time before he finally remembered who she was.
