A knife in love

Chapter 2356

Chapter 2356
When Xu Yingyang spoke, the sky was completely dark, but fortunately, he could see the lights on the city wall in the distance, so everyone didn't need to light torches, as long as they walked towards the lights, they would not get lost.Xu Yingyang didn't know what Murong Danyan and Wang Xiaoyu were thinking, so he continued on his own: "After the civil war in the past, Emperor Yingzong went north hunting, and most of the famous officials and elite soldiers died in battle. Losing the backbone, it can be said that it was a mess. Grand Master Wala also wanted to take this opportunity to seize the Central Plains, so he led his army to the south and put Emperor Yingzong in the forward army, trying to use Emperor Yingzong as a hostage to force Daming The border guards will open the city gates..."

Wang Xiaoyu was puzzled when Xu Yingyang said this, and couldn't help but ask, "Northern Beast? What is a Northern Beast? Is it stronger than a tiger? What does Emperor Yingzong's Northern Beast mean?"

Xu Yingyang didn't expect Wang Xiaoyu to be so ignorant, and he despised her even more in his heart. He didn't want to explain to her at all, so he continued on his own: "The Wala army has arrived in Datong, and the Emperor Yingzong ordered the city guards to open the city gate. Datong is an important town on the nine borders, and the guard Guo Deng naturally knew the Emperor Yingzong. Before receiving the report of the defeat from Tumubao, Guo Deng already knew that the situation was not good, and immediately sent many scouts to inquire about the news. Later I heard Emperor Yingzong did not die among the rebellious army, but was taken away by Oala. All the generals defending Datong celebrated with their foreheads. Only General Guo Deng frowned and said to the generals that the emperor is safe, so it is natural This is a very good thing. But have you ever thought about it, once the Tartar soldiers escort the emperor to the city of Datong and ask us to open the city gate in the name of the emperor, what should we do?"

Wang Xiaoyu was really annoyed when she saw that Xu Yingyang didn't pay attention to her at all and talked to herself.Murong Danyan and the nuns in Yongtai Temple didn't know much about Master Junguo. Although they had read a few books, they were only the most superficial books on hundreds of surnames. At most, they had read one or two of the Four Books and Five Classics. But did not read deeply.As for the history books, military books and war strategies, I haven't even looked at them.Therefore, it's not surprising that they don't know what the word "Beishu" means, and naturally they can't explain it to Wang Xiaoyu.Li Qiufeng and Xiao Dong naturally knew that Xu Yingyang used the word "Beishu" to cover up the embarrassment of Yingzong being captured by Oala, but Xu Yingyang did not answer Wang Xiaoyu's question, and continued talking on his own. Due to etiquette, it is not easy to speak for Xu Yingyang to explain to Wang Xiaoyu.And Xiao Dong wanted to please Xu Yingyang, he already saw that Xu Yingyang disdained Wang Xiaoyu, he was afraid of offending Xu Yingyang, so naturally he would not talk to Wang Xiaoyu.Only Qi Jiu was walking beside Wang Xiaoyu, and when she heard her breathing suddenly became heavy, she knew that Wang Xiaoyu was unhappy, and couldn't bear her being so embarrassed, so she lowered her voice and said to Wang Xiaoyu: "What Master Xu said Beishou is the north of the north, the hunting of hunting. Beishou originally refers to hunting in the north. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin people invaded Bianliang, Tokyo, and took away Song Huizong and Song Qinzong, along with thousands of Zhao and Song royal families. The Kingdom of Jin. Only Kang Wang Zhao Gou escaped by chance, was supported by the people, and became the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty. He was later Song Gaozong. At that time, Huizong and Qinzong were not dead. Did the emperor become a prisoner of the Jin people? I don’t know which guy had an idea and used the word “Beishu” to describe the whereabouts of the Hui and Qin sects. In fact, the officials and the common people knew that this was a deliberate cover-up for the royal family by the historian. No one dared to tell the truth. When Emperor Yingzong was captured by Oala, the Ming court also followed the example of the historians of the Song Dynasty, only saying that Emperor Yingzong was "Beishu", without mentioning the shame and humiliation of being taken captive by Oara."

Wang Xiaoyu finally understood after hearing what Qi Jiu had said.She knew that Qi Jiu was not afraid of offending Xu Yingyang, and explained the meaning of the word "Beishu" to herself because she was afraid that she would be too embarrassed, so she was very grateful.It's just that she didn't want others to see her ups and downs, so she took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "These bastard emperors are so stupid that they caused countless people to die tragically at the hands of the enemy, and they are playing tricks to cover up their crimes. Shameless."

When Qi Jiu and Wang Xiaoyu talked, their voices were extremely low, and Xu Yingyang walked in front, so he couldn't hear the two of them clearly, so he still talked to Li Qiufeng and others on his own.He said in a deep voice: "All the generals were shocked when they heard what Guo Deng said. They thought to themselves that if it is true what General Guo said, the emperor has arrived at the city of Datong and wants us to open the city gate. If we don't open the city by then Door, disobedience to the imperial decree is a capital crime of ransacking the family and exterminating the clan. Although the emperor is in the hands of Wala, he cannot decree to kill us, but the empress dowager is in charge of the court at the moment. She is the biological mother of Emperor Yingzong. This empress dowager has a strong temper. She is quite masculine. When Emperor Xuande was in power, he also respected her very much. As the saying goes, mother and child are united, we violated Emperor Yingzong's will, and if Queen Mother Sun found out, she would think that we were trapped in the enemy's army because of Emperor Yingzong. He will not return to the Central Plains again, so he refuses to open the city according to the order. We have to kill us to stand up. But if he wants to open the city gate under the order of Emperor Yingzong, the Oala army will rush in. These Tartar soldiers are cruel and vicious. We will definitely kill all of us. As the generals of Datong, if we lose the city, according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, our family members will also die. If we don’t open the city gate, we will die, and if we open the city gate, we will die. What should we do?

"The more the generals thought about it, the more frightened they became. All of them were frightened and pale. In a panic, a veteran suddenly thought of Guo Deng's resourcefulness. Why didn't he listen to his ideas? So this veteran came out with more people, He bowed his hands to Guo Deng and said, "Master General is a wise man, and he must have a good plan to resolve the catastrophe in front of us. We rough people are only following the lead, and I ask you to come up with a good plan for us, which saved our lives."

"The generals suddenly realized what the veteran said, and they all asked Guo Deng to come up with an idea for everyone to escape this catastrophe. Guo Deng saw that the generals were already scared to death, so he said to them, Guo thought I came up with an idea, but our current situation is very dangerous, we need to work together to eliminate this catastrophe.

"All the generals just want to avoid disaster. After hearing Guo Deng's words, they swore and swore that as long as Guo Deng issues orders, everyone will obey them. If someone does not obey Guo Deng's orders, everyone will be punished. After taking the poisonous oath, he opened his mouth and said, "The emperor knocks on the gate. If we don't open the city gate and disobey the imperial decree, everyone will die. However, the Emperor Taizu once issued an imperial decree. Once the city gate is locked, it cannot be opened again." Otherwise, it is a death penalty for resisting the decree and not obeying it. Although the emperor today is the ruler of the world, compared with the emperor Taizu, he can only perform the rituals of descendants. The imperial decree of the emperor was a talisman. It only said that the emperor Taizu had established a rule that if the city gate was locked, it could not be opened again, and asked the emperor to come back another day. After the next day, Guo was the guard of the city. He reasoned that he was seriously ill and could not show up. , Find a general to deal with it on the city, only saying that the main general is seriously ill, can't see things, and still can't open the city. After a few days of delay, Wala has no choice but to retreat or move troops to other cities, Datong City can do it Escaped."
