Zong Wei said that there was a way to dispel Chen Longzhi's concerns, and Chen Longzhi looked at Zong Wei curiously, wanting to hear and understand.

Zong Wei said to Chen Longzhi. "I heard that there is a secret poison in the palace, this poison antidote is only available in the royal family, and those who take this poison will have a seizure after ten days, if there is no unique antidote, they will definitely die, and this poison must also be in the adult's house. ”

"What do you mean?" Chen Longzhi asked,

"I will take this poison to the child in front of the adult, if unfortunately not out of the encirclement, the child is taken by the Mongols, if there is no royal antidote, the child's life is not guaranteed, to the underworld, our father and son can also be reunited; if I am fortunate enough to kill out of the encirclement, as a father, how can I watch the child die of poison, I will personally send the child to Lin'an to seek the antidote. Zong Wei explained,

The ancestor of Zongwei had worked in the imperial court, and knew a little about the insidious aspects of the royal family, and had already developed this antidote when he traveled to Western countries in his early years, so he proposed this plan.

"Okay, I think this method works, but I need to verify that this child is in good shape. ”

Chen Longzhi agreed to Zong Wei's proposal after a little consideration, and Zong Wei was overjoyed for a while, so he naturally cooperated more.

Therefore, Zong Wei tore open a cloth towel in swaddling clothes in front of Chen Longzhi, revealing the dragon scales on the child's body.

When Chen Longzhi saw the dragon scales, his face showed surprise, and he muttered: "There really is a son of dragon scales in the world." ”

Zong Wei wrapped the cloth back in the baby's belly and asked, "Do you still have any doubts?"

Chen Longzhi's doubts disappeared, and he just asked, "When do you plan to leave?"

"It's better to be early, preferably tonight. Zong Wei already had a plan in his heart, so he couldn't wait to leave as soon as possible.

"Okay, Your Excellency will go home with me first. Chen Longzhi politely made an inviting gesture.

Zong Wei calmly followed Chen Longzhi to his mansion.

Chen Longzhi took a bottle of poison from the inner room and handed it to Zong Wei.

"This medicine is colorless and tasteless, and its name is 'Ten Days of Death', can Your Excellency think about it?"

Zong Wei took the poison from Chen Longzhi's hand, uncorked the red bottle, and poured it into Zong Zhen's mouth in front of Chen Longzhi without saying a word.

Chen Longzhi saw that Zong Wei did not hesitate at all, and was so decisive and decisive towards his own son, he couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.

"For this breakthrough, you need to borrow me five elites and a fast horse. Zong Wei said coldly.

"Naturally, it's not a problem, dare to ask Your Excellency how to evade the pursuit after breaking through and go to Lin'an with your son?" asked Chen Longzhi.

"Lingjiao Crossing and Brokeback Cliff are the only way for the Mongolian army to return, so dangerous, I'm afraid that the Song Emperor sent an ambush, right?" Zong Wei had already expected what Chen Longzhi was thinking, and did not answer it directly, but asked him instead.

When Chen Longzhi heard this, he couldn't help but secretly admire the extraordinary person in front of him.

"Your Excellency has not been out of Chengdu, but you know what is happening outside the city, Chen admires!" Chen Longzhi bowed his hand and saluted.

"I'm afraid that the Song army ambushed there at this time will soon be piled up like a mountain of corpses!" Zong Wei said coldly.

"What do you mean?" Chen Longzhi couldn't help but ask.

"First, the Mongol army has always considered the way back when marching and fighting, and although 100,000 soldiers have been exhausted this time, the 'Tianyi Guard' has not appeared. ”

"Heavenly Wing Guards?" Chen Longzhi had never heard of before, so he was greatly surprised.

"The Mongolian army is especially good at cavalry shooting, but the mountain siege is a shortcoming, specially selected people with high martial arts to compose the" Tianyi Guards ", when necessary to attack the city, often with a surprise effect to attack the city, repeatedly tried, this siege, so important, the soldiers are fast, why stalemate for five days, I think it must be the "Tianyi Guard" has another important task, did not dare to move lightly. ”

After hearing this, Chen Longzhi's face was quite ugly.

Zong Wei naturally didn't care about Chen Long's feelings, but continued,

"The two, although the Mongolian army is the leader of the Mongolian Khan, but Kuoduan is the deputy marshal, two years ago, Kuoduan in January will be Sichuan Tianwei leveled, all the places in Sichuan can be deployed, he can be said to know well, only afraid of the praying mantis to catch cicadas, yellow finches behind. ”

Chen Longzhi was a little incredulous, still entangled in the matter of the 'Heavenly Wing Guard', so he asked,

"The Brokeback Cliff is so dangerous, is it possible that the 'Heavenly Wing Guards' will grow wings and fly up?"

Zong Wei didn't want to explain more, so he prevaricated Chen Long's way with the matter of breaking through.

"At the moment, there is no time to talk to adults in detail, when it is time to see the child, this is the best time to break through, after the breakthrough, I naturally have a way to avoid the pursuit, the child is already waiting to die, and I hope that the adults will cooperate more. ”

Chen Longzhi knew that time was pressing, so he didn't dare to delay, and immediately acted according to Zong Wei's instructions and no longer entangled the 'Heavenly Wing Guards'.

The gates creaked open, and a man dressed in white came out, carrying swaddling clothes on his shoulder.

The horses galloped towards the western camp of the Mongol army.

The Mongol troops stationed in the west saw that someone had broken into the camp and wanted to break through, so they immediately blocked and intercepted them, but they did not dare to release arrows because of the life of the baby.

The man on horseback threw the thunderbolt hanging on his horse into the camp, and the fire flew everywhere, and a puff of smoke filled the air, and the camp was in chaos.

Broadend heard a sound in the middle camp, went out of the tent, and asked,

"What happened?"

"Deputy marshal, there is a man in white, swaddling on his shoulders, wanting to break through. "The subordinates reported.

"Attacking the east and west, the order was issued, and the rest of the battalions were on guard and were not allowed to reinforce without authorization. ”

Kuoduan saw Zong Wei's plan at a glance.

Zong Wei stood on top of the city tower, and saw that the rest of the battalions did not move, and he couldn't help but admire in his heart, "Kuoduan is really handsome." ”

At the time of the riot in Xiying, the city gate was opened again.

At the same time, four people dressed in white and carrying swaddling clothes on their shoulders came out.

The four rode away in four directions.

Kuoduan immediately ordered people to intercept it, and there was a commotion in the battalions.

After a while, the riot quickly calmed down, and Kuoduan ordered the corpses of the five people to be dragged under the city tower to show his authority.

Seeing this situation, Chen Longzhi scolded: "The five elites died in an instant, but Your Excellency is still in the city, I don't know what your Excellency thinks in your heart?"

Zong Wei's face did not change, and he only replied lightly: "Kuoduan has already been selected, and after half an hour, I can break through safely." ”

When Chen Longzhi heard this, he was quite shocked in his heart.

Kuoduan expected that the five people in front of him who broke through were just introductions, and there would be people who would break through tonight, so he ordered all battalions to strengthen their vigilance and strictly guard against death.

Soldiers with soldiers, not only to use strategy, but also to gamble on the psychology of the commander, this breakthrough, there is no way to dodge, although there is a mastery, but also to seek a way out of the stable, Zong Wei is to make the broad end nervous, as long as the broad end is nervous, Zong Wei can see through the Mongolian camp as a whole guard of the empty leak, and can make the Mongolian soldiers in tension and fatigue, this is the so-called throwing stones to ask for directions, and then preemptive.

The ugly time was approaching, and after some nervous tossing, the Mongol army began to relax, and Zong Wei saw this opportunity and decided to set off immediately.

Zong Wei wrapped Zong Zhen's swaddling clothes in a cloth on his chest, and the housekeeper Uncle Huang brought a black horse, Zong Wei put four fire thunders on the horse's back, pasted two shiny things under the horse's crotch, and then jumped on the horse. I couldn't help but think in my heart: "Ling'er, this is dangerous and abnormal, life and death are uncertain, if the sky begs for mercy, I will take Zhen'er to reunite with you, if my life is inevitable, I and Zhen'er have knowledge underground, and I will definitely bless you and Zheng'er for a safe life." ”

The city gate slowly opened, and Zong Wei rode out.

"It's up to you. Zong Wei stroked the horse and said, then rode the horse forward.

The bonfire in front of him was full of tents, Zong Wei's face was fearless, and he looked back at the city, as if he was saying goodbye to Yiling's mother and son in the city.

"Drive. With a sound of a horse, the high-spirited and fluttering figure cast an elegant black shadow in the moonlight.

Pulling the bow on the shelf, Zong Wei walked straight to the west camp, and before the camp gate guards could react, two sharp arrows passed through his chest, and the arrow power was strong, and the two soldiers were shot more than ten steps away.

The horse plunged straight into the avenue between the tents, and Zong Wei drew his sword, transported it to the internal force, and threw the bonfires on both sides of the avenue into the tents.

Xiying was in chaos again.

Riding to the intersection of the avenue, more than 20 soldiers holding shields suddenly appeared in front, and the shields were erected, wanting to block Zong Wei's way, Zong Wei took out two fire thunderbolts and threw them in front of the shield.

A loud explosion blew the shield away, and a puff of smoke dispersed.

When Zong Wei traveled around the Western countries, he learned the secret recipe of the improved artillery in the West, which now came in handy, and the power of this fire and thunder was several times better than before, so the shield soldiers were unstoppable.

Horses galloped through the smoke.

The crossbowman pulled his bow and held the arrow, ready to shoot, wanting to shoot Zong Wei from behind, but Dahai Xuanbu was afraid of the baby in Zong Wei's arms and stopped him.

Zong Wei went straight forward, and suddenly, a stumbling horse iron rope was in front of him, and then he raised his sword sideways, and a sword split the stumbling horse rope.

Dahai was shocked: "Good sword!"

Seeing that Zong Wei was about to break through, Dahai Xuanbu immediately led hundreds of iron horsemen to rush to help.

Seeing the situation, Zong Wei knew that only by killing the bloody road quickly could there be a glimmer of life, so he accelerated his progress.

In front of the stumbling horse, a group of iron horsemen immediately came with swords, and the momentum was surging.

Zong Wei then rolled up the broken half-rope with his sword, stood up the end of the sword, and swung it in the air.

The iron rope whirled in mid-air.

When the cavalry approached, Zong Wei threw the iron rope forward, and the two cavalrymen who rushed to the front were thrown down by the flying stumbling rope together with their horses.

Zong Wei then connected with the rear iron cavalry, because of the sharp edge of the sword, Zong Wei only fought the moment of the battle, and then cut the big sword in the cavalry's hand into two one by one, and knocked the cavalry off the horse.

Seeing that he was about to rush out of the western camp, hundreds of soldiers with sharp spears suddenly poured out in front of him, and they all stood their spears diagonally in front of them, and the spears glowed coldly in the moonlight.

Zong Wei immediately grabbed the reins.

The horse neighed and raised its front hooves high.

The pursuers behind are getting closer and closer, and if they are delayed any longer, they are afraid that the broad end of the middle camp will immediately lead the men and horses of the middle camp to outflank, and the situation is extremely urgent.

Zong Wei didn't have time to think, and there was only one thought, and that was to rush forward.

The horse spun around twice in place, neighing incessantly, and was ready to go.

Zong Wei took out two ring darts from under the crotch of the horse and volleyed them into the air towards the soldiers in front of him.

This dart was extremely sharp, and after cutting several soldiers, it flew back into Zong Wei's hands in the blink of an eye.

With only a few repeated darts fired, the formation ahead was already scattered.

Zong Wei flew forward on his horse, and when he was about to approach the spear formation in front, he immediately flew off his horse, stood in front of the military formation, and then gathered the internal force of the whole body, and under the aggregation of internal force, the weapons scattered on the ground were all integrated, forming a huge iron ball.

Zong Wei struck the ball forward.

Immediately, a puff of dust was lifted in front of him, and the sound of soldiers shouting and falling to the ground could be heard in the dust.

With only one arrow step, Zong Wei Fu jumped right again, galloping calmly through the wounded soldiers all over the ground, and after the last line of defense was broken through by Zong Wei, Zong Wei did not dare to stop, but accelerated his speed.

Seeing this situation in the rear, Dahai Xuanbu and the others secretly admired: "Good kung fu!"

Seeing that Zong Wei was fighting his way out of the encirclement with the son of dragon scales, Dahai Xuanbu led his men to chase after him, and the iron cavalry led by Wo Kotai and Kuoduan also arrived, and the two armies merged into one and followed Zong Wei closely.

On the starry night, the heroic horses galloped, and thousands of horses raised dust.

The Mongol army pursued closely all night, but failed to catch up with Zongwei.

The morning light appeared, and the morning dew was a little bit, accompanied by a tremor and a tremor falling to the earth.

A horse galloped past, followed by ten thousand galloping horses.

After walking for a few hours, Zong Wei Ma'er began to struggle a little, and gradually, the distance between the two sides began to close, and there was only a stone's throw away.

Kuoduan took the opportunity to pick up the curved bow, pulled the arrow to the string, and shot straight at Zong Wei's horse's buttocks.

The arrow from the string whizzed and hit the horse's hip.

The horses let out a burst of **, snorting and running, panting, and the pursuers in the rear still followed closely.

Seeing that the horse was injured, Zong Wei was a little worried: "This place is still several miles away from the agreed place, and I don't know if the horse can hold on." ”

When he was worried, a team of black-clothed men shot out of the pass in front of him, and shot straight at the Mongolian army with a strong crossbow.

"Childe, let's go, let's take a moment here. The leader said to Zong Wei.

Zong Wei immediately crossed the pass without stopping.

The front army of the Mongolian army was frustrated, and after a period of chaos, Kuoduan immediately organized a bow and feather team to counterattack, and thousands of bows and arrows went to the pass.

In front of the pass is the double hump, the two peaks are connected by an iron chain bridge, Zong Wei has been deployed a few days ago, the flying pigeon to beg for help from the various sects, therefore, the other end of the bridge has the Shaolin faction, the Zongjian faction and the Vientiane faction and other factions of people to respond.

Zong Wei was only a hundred meters away from the bridge, and he could already see the men and horses of the various factions that responded, but at this critical moment, the horses fell to the ground and died.

The sound of Mongolian iron hooves roaring from the rear, only a hundred meters away, Zong Zheng immediately flew towards the bridge.

The chain bridge is more than 100 meters long and less than half a meter wide, allowing only one person to pass through.

More than a dozen disciples who were left at the bridgehead to be responsible for the break were instantly killed by random arrows.

"One step further and shoot indiscriminately. Ogedai shouted.

Zong Wei heard the edict floating behind him, and stopped in the middle of the bridge, he knew very well that if he took another step, the half of the place where he was would immediately be shot into a hornet's nest.

On one side were the Mongol army, and on the other side were the various sects of the Great Song Dynasty, Zong Wei and his children were sandwiched between the two sides, motionless.

Under the chain bridge, there is an abyss, and the white mist is shrouded below.

Zong Wei looked at the bottomless abyss under the bridge, and thought to himself: "If you continue to go to the opposite side, the Mongolian army will inevitably shoot my father and son with arrows, if you turn back and go to the Mongolian army, it will violate the justice of the rivers and lakes and not say it, it will be a matter of the fate of the Great Song Dynasty. Zong Wei couldn't help but feel a little sad when he thought of this.

The two sides were at a stalemate for a long time, and a pair of kites circled back and forth between the two peaks, occasionally making a few calls.

Zong Wei noticed that there were people on both sides with knives and axes, ready to cut the iron rope at any time.

The atmosphere became particularly tense.

"Woo whoa, woo whoa"

At this moment, Zong Zhen's cry sounded, echoing between the two mountains, and the tense atmosphere was instantly broken by the baby's cry.

Zong Wei untied the cloth knot, took the crying Zong Zhen out of his arms, and then untied Zong Zhen's clothes, exposing Zong Zhen naked to the two parties, under the sun, the dragon scales on Zong Zhen's body were really seen by the people on both sides.

When everyone was surprised to see the dragon scales on the son of dragon scales, they were also shocked that Zong Wei, as a father, treated his child like this.

"Hahahaha, son of dragon scales. Zong Wei laughed a few times, resolutely hugged Zong Zhen, and jumped from the bridge.

"Zong Wei, Zong Wei. "There were shouts from all over the bridge.

At the moment of the fall, the picture of Tu Yiling flashed in Zong Wei's mind, and a tear slipped from the corner of his eye.

A white shadow faded into the white mist.

The Mongols were greatly shaken, and all sects and factions were deeply distressed.

Suddenly, the wind and clouds surged, the sky changed dramatically, and a downpour came.

The double hump immediately thundered and flashed with lightning.

The two sides stood on their feet for a moment, and when they saw the great changes in the sky, they each withdrew gloomily.

The next day, it was still raining.

Deputy General Tian Shixian's face was gloomy, and Chen Longzhi asked him what news he had recently had.

Tian Shixian replied in a low voice: "There are three pieces of news from the front, all of which are bad news. ”

"Tell me one by one. Chen Longzhi asked blandly, as if he was mentally prepared.

Tian Shixian replied: "First, the Song soldiers of Lingjiaodu and Brokeback Mountain were attacked by unknown and the whole army was annihilated. ”

After hearing this, Chen Longzhi muttered: "It seems that he really expects things like a god." There was a hint of admiration and sadness in his eyes.

"Second, the son of the dragon scales and his father were forced to fall off the cliff together, and both died. Tian Shixian continued.

"I've heard about it. Chen Longzhi replied, paused for a moment, and then sighed again: "Hey, I can't imagine that such a person with strong martial arts and such a talented person finally fought out of thousands of troops and horses, and was trapped in a 100-meter iron chain bridge, what is really fate!"

Third, the Mongols proposed to open the city and surrender within two days, so as to avoid the death of the people in the city, and if they resolutely resisted, when the city was broken, the whole city would be slaughtered. Tian Shixian looked at Chen Longzhi after speaking.

"This time, the Mongols fought for the son of dragon scales in vain, and they were not willing to give up, thinking about it, Chengdu was already doomed to be unstable from the beginning. Chen Longzhi sighed.

Two days later, Tian Shixian surrendered in Kaicheng, and after Wokotai got Chengdu, he wanted to raise troops to attack the Southern Song Dynasty.

Strangely, on the second day after settling in Chengdu City, the chamberlain found Wokotai suddenly dead in the bed. Kuoduan and other Western Road armies had to abandon Chengdu and help the coffin of Kuotai return to the north.
