1. Black knife

The snow came late this winter, and the practice of having to have a heavy snowfall in the lunar month has not appeared.

The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the majestic walls of Daliang City, and the scars of war covered the entire tower. Before the bones of the soldiers on both sides under the city walls could be gathered, the enemy camp began to prepare for the next attack. This ancient capital, which has lasted for thousands of years and has fallen countless times, has once again embarked on the fate of being breached.

The Sixteen Kingdoms of Xiazhou, once a powerful country, have been built here for 50 years after three generations. The first two generations of lords worked hard to govern the country, looking at the hinterland of the Central Plains, and the surrounding small countries all surrendered.

The third generation of the lord of the country was so happy with his achievements, he used all his troops to expropriate and extort money from the country, which made the people miserable and rose up one after another. But the lord of the kingdom turned a blind eye to this, and allowed the minister to take charge of the country, and died three months ago of drinking and beauty.

The crown prince Yue Xuan is a genius and is preparing to set things right, but the traitor is powerful, and the armies of the two sides have been fighting for a long time, just when they are about to sweep away the evil in the country. The Dang Tuo fortress in the neighboring Great Wei, leading a strong enemy to attack, has become a strong crossbow at the end of the prince's army is unable to fight again, the Great Wei iron cavalry is like a broken bamboo, the front of the army is directed at the city of Liang.

This is the forty-fifth day of the siege of the capital. Surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side, the girder has always been a battleground for soldiers. Occupy this city to control the Central Plains in the north and reject the Luo Kingdom in the south.

Liang Zhan, who has been in the army for 35 years, has always attached great importance to the appearance of soldiers, and he has no idea how good he looks at this moment. Even if he didn't look in the mirror, he knew that the bloody battle during this time had made him haggard to the extreme.

Liang Zhan looked at the pro-army around him who was exhausted but still standing like a pine, and sighed secretly in his heart. is known as the general of the Great Liang Barrier to protect the country, but I am afraid that even these pro-troops who are like sons and nephews can't protect them.

With these 30,000 remnants, they held the city for forty-five days, and now there are only less than 8,000 warriors left. has been able to persist until now, all thanks to the brave spirit of the soldiers who are not afraid of death, plus themselves, who are known as the top ten famous generals in Xiazhou, and they have worked hard to support the invincible Hehewei in the past.

He was willing to die, but these young and enthusiastic lives were so innocent. Thinking of the scene when King Liang was promoted to himself among the many guards twenty years ago, he swore a heavy oath to King Liang and was loyal to the king and the Great Liang all his life. This is an oath to King Liang, and it is also a promise from his heart.

In the past 20 years, he has done the same himself, although the king of Liang is arrogant and lascivious, and is known as the most mediocre king of Liang in the past dynasties. He still held on to his promise until the king of Liang conscripted the country to the point of smoke and finally gave away his own life.

Until now, he still adheres to his promise and is loyal to the prince, but unfortunately God did not give the wise prince a chance, nor did he give himself the opportunity to protect the beam for half his life.

Wei took advantage of the Great Liang to eliminate the traitors and the chaos, and in January, it took 15 cities and 250,000 troops to attack the national capital Daliang. In the past 20 years, he has fought for the south and the north for the girder, and he has been guarding the stormy girder for 20 years.

The crown prince decided to break the cauldron and personally lead a group of guards with strong martial arts to fight against the king of Wei. Liang Zhan stalled here. The only explanation before the prince left was only to let him protect the princess.

Under the city tower, there is the Great Wei army with banners and barracks. The coach is Xue Baohu, the general of the Great Wei Dynasty, who is also one of the top ten famous generals in Xiazhou.

Xue Baohu has been known as the god of war in Xiazhou since he was called the god of war in Xiazhou since he was in the battle of Tianyou thirteen years ago, and after the iron spear even picked up the eighteen generals of the Great Desert Khanate and took the life of Gel Khan who shocked the western continent with one arrow.

Although the two have not fought each other over the years, both of them know that the two sides are between the two sides in terms of intelligence and martial arts. If you can fight fairly, victory or defeat is still unknown.

It's a pity that Xue Baohu won't give him such a chance. What's more, there is also the huge black knife inserted into the ground after Xue captured the tiger's Chinese army camp. This is the black knife battalion of Xue Baohu's rampant battle, and the black knife battalion once created a legend of defeating the 10,000 golden horde guards of the Han State with a hundred ironclad knights, and is known as the invincible battalion.

At most, he could only hold out for three more days, and after three days, the 8,000 children who followed him would die with him and the city.

Fortunately, the things I promised the prince have been done. The crown prince demanded that he must send the whole city away, and all the people had been evacuated before the 27th. The crown prince entrusted his only blood, Princess Yue Xinxin, to himself, and he had already asked his confidants to leave with his own flesh and blood Liang Yuxing.

I don't know if the prince's sacrifice was successful, but I saw that the 150,000 troops under the city had been attacking the city for several days. I'm afraid that the prince is also fierce and unlucky. Now the only wish is just to hope that Xue Baohu can take action in person, that is, blood is splashed on the battlefield, and he can die in the hands of famous generals, and he will get what he wants, and he will have no regrets in life and death.

The tent of the Wei army was brightly lit. The elite barracks around the Gongwei camp are all safe, hundreds of thousands of troops, 50,000 healthy horses, and can only hear the heralds galloping around to give orders. The strength of military prestige can be seen in general.

Xue Baohu was known for his strict discipline. Uproar in the camp is a punishable punishment.

Xue Baohu was at the peak of his life at the age of thirty-three, and his status was second only to Xiahou, the most powerful group of Wei generals in Xiazhou.

His martial arts and military might are not comparable to the sixty-eight-year-old veteran Xiahou. It has long been considered the inevitable candidate for the next Grand Governor.

Above Xue Baohu's handsome position, a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old young man in a yellow shirt was sitting quietly, his face was full, his sword eyebrows were inserted into his temples, and his phoenix eyes were as warm as jade, which made people feel close at first sight.

No matter when, yellow is the emperor's color, and if the emperor dares to wear it, it is a violation of the ban, and the nine clans will be wiped out. can be in the camp of the general of the Great Wei wearing a yellow shirt and holding a handsome position, this can only be the royal family of the Great Wei, and the status is not low.

There were only three people in the entire tent, and even above the battle array, the general's personal army stood outside the camp. The young man in the yellow shirt glanced at the empty handsome tent and glanced at the purple-clothed maid beside him. He smiled at Xue Baohu, who was standing steadily, and a friendly voice sounded in the big tent.

"Capture the tiger, this time you can destroy the country's beams, you are the first meritorious, and then the merit will be rewarded, there is no need to say more. After this battle, it is the luck of my Great Wei to get this anointed place. Now I control the desert in the west of the Great Wei Dynasty, the cold land of Yan in the north, the Hanshui Xiongguan in the east, and the Chishui in the south. The momentum of strength has been achieved, and it only takes a few years to live with the people, boost armaments, and sweep the world is just around the corner. ”

The young man in the yellow shirt is full of eloquence, and he talks about the general trend of the world like stretching out his palm to look at the pattern, which is convincing. Speaking of this, after a pause, Sifu continued after a moment:

"I came for the labor army this time, but near the barracks, I heard very bad news from Beijing. You and I have known each other for many years, and I need to ask you to help me with all my strength this time. ”

The young man spoke extremely cautiously, and while examining Xue Baohu, he also made eye contact with the purple-clothed maid.

Xue Baohu bowed slightly, and his breath was long and incomparably thick, and his voice sounded.

"Second Highness, the tiger has won the favor of His Royal Highness's promotion, and there is no way to repay it, so you should obey the order carefully, and don't dare to disobey. ”

The young man in the yellow shirt is Han Che, the second prince of Great Wei, and there are nine princes and seven princesses in Great Wei. Under the five princes, they are all minors, and the eldest princess Han Wei was born to the second prince and one mother, and she is sixteen years old. Han Jing, the eldest prince of Wei, Han Che, the second prince, Han Jiao, the fourth prince, Han Hui, and the fifth prince Han Hui were not born to the same mother, and they were the crown princes, and they attacked each other.

The five princes are all dragons and phoenixes among people, and Wende and martial arts are all the best choices. This made it difficult for the King of Wei to choose, and the position of the prince has been hanging in the balance. King Wei sighed more than once when he was drunk, if the eldest princess was a man, he would not have difficulty making a decision.

It was even quieter in the tent, and the breathing between the three of them was audible. The purple-clothed maid coughed lightly, and her crisp and pleasant voice seemed to wake up the two in silence.

Han Che groaned slightly, and said in a softer voice: "Two days ago, Yue Xuan, the prince of Daliang, sneaked into the royal city and assassinated his father while his father was inspecting Beiying. Yesterday, there was news from the palace that my father was seriously injured, and the dragon body was only afraid of ......"

Xue Baohu's thick eyebrows were raised, and his face was suddenly tight. hugged him and bowed, and said in a deep voice: "The last general will listen to His Highness's orders, follow His Highness, and live and die!"

Xue Baohu's meaning seems to be the same as the previous sentence. There is only one self-proclaimed difference. claimed to capture the tiger and had the affection of his subordinates and friends, but in exchange for the self-proclaimed general of the last general, he had already made it clear that the subordinates of the monarch and ministers had calmly obeyed.

Han Che stood up, quietly paired with the purple-clothed maid, walked towards Xue Baohu, and helped him up with his majestic body. Haha laughed and said:

"A good boy should go down in history and shine with the sun and the moon. Otherwise, it is no different from grass and trees, so what's the fun! If this matter is harmonious, it will definitely sweep the world with the capture of the tiger and end the situation of Xiazhou's century-long endless conquest. ”

Han Che walked two steps in the big tent and said solemnly: "Lone needs to capture the tiger and make every effort to break through Daliang City within one day, and immediately lead the army back to the court with the merit of destroying the country." Help me calm the situation in the capital of Ning'an and protect the orphan to ascend the throne. ”

The monarchs and ministers have been divided, and Han Che has changed to a solitary title. The all-out siege of the city referred to in the language, Xue Baohu can also understand that the famous Black Knife Battalion needs to be dispatched. Everyone knows that the Black Knife Battalion belongs to them, but how do they know......

The strategy was initially decided, but at this moment, the three people in the tent were much more relaxed. The matter has come to this point, like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. Success and defeat have been the same since ancient times.

Whether it is a hundred years of life or a thousand people's fingers, it is no longer in the consideration of the three of them at this moment. Only by moving forward bravely and overcoming obstacles to fight a bloody road.

The Black Knife Battalion, known as the Invincible Battalion in the world, how many people are in this battalion and who is in charge of the army, but it was hidden by Xue Baohu.

Only when the army is blocked and the military situation is urgent, will it be ordered to come out. The barracks in which they were stationed were all listed after the great army. No one is allowed to enter by the order of the commander, and no one is allowed to enter, and those who do not have an order will be beheaded!

Han Dong poured a bucket of water on his naked body. In the biting cold wind, the icy water seemed to meet the burning coals, and a thick mist was raised.

In the mist that was difficult to see with the naked eye, Han Dong stretched a big lazy waist, and the scars all over his body writhed hideously.

Cold water washing before killing is a habit that Han Dong has formed in the Black Knife Camp for twelve years.

Da Hei, who had been following him for nine years, eight months and twenty-seven days, hurriedly stepped forward and handed over his clothes. Since he rescued Da Hei in a barracket fight, Da Hei, who was slightly older than him for two months, would remind Han Dong like this once a day, so that Han Dong, who didn't care much about time, could remember it clearly.

Compared with the strict military discipline of the army, the Black Knife Battalion, which is composed of rogues and death row prisoners, pays more attention to the respect of the strong. Han Dong was undoubtedly the strongest among them, and the invincible prestige of the Black Knife Battalion was also established by him, which he had established in these twelve years of killing.

The fine and soft satin is very close-fitting, and if it is not for the fact that it is conducive to pulling out arrows after being shot by a stray arrow, Han Dong does not like this kind of fabric that does not absorb sweat.

The heavy and cold armor is the armor of the highest-ranking general of the Great Wei, and this is the armor of Xue Baohu. After that battle of one million to ten thousand, he became Han Dong's armor.

Fifty men in black armor stood in front of the black giant knives at the camp gate. The cold wind hunts, and the white mist between the mouth and nose is swirling.

Han Dong patted the red war horse that followed him closely, and said in a low voice: "The siege battle, there is no place for you, honestly wait for me to come back!"

looked at Da Hei who was holding his helmet, and Da Hei, who used to always remind himself to wear a helmet, finally had something missing.

Han Dong secretly slandered himself, but he didn't care. Striding forward, he pulled out the long black knife stuck in the ground in one hand. The long knife was pulled out of the frozen ground and made a pleasant hum, as if it was about to be a bloodthirsty song.

The black knife was six feet three inches long and weighed two hundred and thirty-four pounds, and it was held in the hand of Han Dong, who was six feet one inch long, and it was a natural fit and incomparable.

Looking back at the lined up line, the long knife pointed obliquely at the looming Daliang City. Qingyue's passionate voice sounded.

"Tonight the city of Liang is broken!"
