Marry Changle in Datang

"Get out of the way, don't stop me from chasing and killing General Tang!"

The woman heard this, Yin Xiaoguan stepped aside, and when Su Jinlian approached, she threw a hammer at Fan Hou.

Su Jinlian didn't expect that the woman in the road would attack her, and she was caught off guard. She was hit by a hammer and yelled "Oops!" and fell off the horse's back. Xue Dingshan fell off the horse after seeing it in the forest. When she was hit so dizzy, Fuyi halberd killed Su Jinlian, got off the horse and took the head.

After hanging the queen's head on the saddle, Xue Dingshan kowtowed to the woman and asked respectfully.

"May I ask this sister, who is her name? When the boy returns to the camp to report to the Marshal, come and thank you."

The woman smiled and said, "My surname is Chen, my name is Jin Ding, and my ancestral home is from the Central Plains. My grandfather, Chen Yun, used to be the commander-in-chief of the Sui Dynasty. After the Sui Dynasty fell, he lived in Wulong Mountain in Xiliang, where he lived with firewood. Both parents of the slave family died, no brother above, no brother below, this year is 18 years old, just because of his black and ugly appearance, he is nicknamed "Mother Tianlian", the family is not far from here, you are Tang general, follow me back to the hut in the mountains, miss me Grandpa will definitely have something to say when he sees you."

Xue Dingshan was a little embarrassed when he heard the words, and said.

"My sister is so kind, I should agree to it. However, the general has a military order in his body and dare not delay the military situation. After I hand over the order, how about thanking my sister?"

Seeing that Xue Dingshan insisted on going, Chen Jinding didn't want to say much, took out some pills from his arms and handed them to him.

"Take the medicine to stabilize the injury. I look forward to your arrival tomorrow. Don't break your promise."

Xue Dingshan took the pills and said, "Sister, don't worry!"

After saying this, Xue Dingshan resigned, got on his horse and left the forest, and ran into Qin Meng and Dou Yihu, two generals who had come to look for him, and said that he had already killed Su Jinlian, the empress dowager. The two were overjoyed when they heard the words, and the three of them galloped back to the city, and entered the government office to pay the order .

Seeing Su Jinlian's head, Qin Xiaole asked overjoyed.

"The city defenders report, you were injured by the Golden Whip this time, and left in a wasteland. Why did you kill the Queen?"

Hearing the marshal's question, Xue Dingshan told the truth about the fact that he fled to the mountains and was rescued by Chen Jinding, and said that he had promised to go to thank him tomorrow. Wouldn't it be great to be served by such a fierce general, he said immediately.

"This female general is a hero, I should go and thank you now!"

After saying this, Qin Xiaole laughed and said to Cheng Yaojin: "Tomorrow, the old Duke will work hard and go to the mountains to pay respects to the grandson of the Chen family. I think he used to be a general of the Sui Dynasty. Maybe the Duke knows this person. uncertain."

Cheng Yaojin heard the words and knew that the war was tense, and the marshal naturally couldn't leave the camp, so he readily agreed.

At dawn the next day, Cheng Yaojin and Xue Dingshan took the gold and silver satin and headed towards Wulong Mountain. When they reached the top of the mountain, Chen Yun heard about it and hurried out to greet them. They entered the thatched cottage.

Cheng Yaojin said: "Yesterday, Qianyuan rescued the vanguard officer of our army. The marshal couldn't come in person because he was busy with the war. I prepared a small gift to order the old man and Xue Dingshan to come and thank you for saving my life. I thank Qianyuan for helping our army kill the Xiliang fan queen." .”

Chen Yun's eyes filled with tears when he heard the words, and after a while, he put away his excitement about seeing the soldiers of the motherland again, and said respectfully: "Old Qiansui, I have been exiled in Xiliang for more than ten years, and my son and daughter-in-law all died in the war. Datang, every time I want to go home, I hate the opportunity. My granddaughter is a disciple of the Holy Mother of Wudang. In the past, she once said that she was married to the little general of the Xue family. If the little general doesn’t think my granddaughter is ugly, the old man will send her to the camp tomorrow. Married to the young general, after that, the old man is willing to follow the marshal to the west, carry the whip and the stirrup, serve the court, and hope that the old thousand-year-old will stand in front of the marshal for the next official."

After hearing what Chen Yun said, Cheng Yaojin knew the cause and effect, he laughed and agreed, "This is a good thing, the old man promised you."

After bidding farewell to the grandparents of the Chen family, Cheng Yaojin took Xue Dingshan back to the camp and reported the reason to the marshal. Qin Xiaole said: "I agree with Xue Dingshan to recruit relatives, but Marshal Xue must agree to it. The old man might as well discuss with Marshal Xue Tell me, let's see what he says?"

After Cheng Yaojin heard Qin Xiaole's serious words, he took Xue Dingshan to the army to meet Xue Rengui, and explained the fact that Xue Dingshan was rescued and Chen Jinding had a relationship with him. thing.

Seeing Xue Rengui's answer, Cheng Yaojin was overjoyed and said: "Your Xue family has made money. Although Chen Jinding is not good in appearance, he is a disciple of the Holy Mother of Wudang. She has boundless magic power. Bringing her into the army can help you." Congratulations to my son for helping me!"

Mrs. Xue in the back hall was also delighted to hear about her son, and Dou Xiantong was also willing to hear that Chen Jinding was a master of martial arts.

Another day passed, and at dawn a soldier reported that Chen Yun had led his granddaughter to visit the marshal, and Xu Xiaole ordered the soldiers to bring Chen's grandfather and grandson into the marshal's mansion.

The grandson of the Chen family met the marshal, and Qin Xiaole said with a smile: "General Chen's grandson will return to serve in the country, and this commander admires him, and he will complete the marriage of Ms. Chen in the future. In the future, old general Chen can resume his military post and fight with the commander. How about Ms. Chen following her husband as the vanguard?"

Chen Yun was very moved when he heard the words, and cupped his hands with tears in his eyes, he said, "Thank you, Marshal, for taking me in. I will serve the country, and I will do my best, and I will die!"

That night, Xue Dingshan and Chen Jinding got married in the army. Chen Jinding respected Dou Xiantong, and Dou Xiantong thanked her for saving her husband.

Besides, there were 50 troops in Xiliang, and when they heard that the queen had been beheaded, they lost their fighting spirit, and they quietly withdrew from the camp.

The Tang army's expedition to the west went well. Before Qin Xiaole was ready to conquer Xiliang, he ordered Xue Xiantu to lead [-] troops to guard "Jiepai Pass", Zhou Wen led [-] troops to guard "Jinxia Pass", and Zhou Wu led [-] troops to guard "Jiepai Pass". From then on, the three passes in Xiliang to the outside of the "Yumen Pass" in the Tang Dynasty were under the control of the Tang Dynasty, and the people were freed from the suffering of war and chaos.

After everything was properly arranged, Qin Xiaole reported to the emperor about the westward march. After the letter soldiers went to Chang'an City, they raised tents in the government office and gathered generals to discuss the westward march.

In the official yamen, Chen Yun, a new veteran of the Tang army, came out and said: "Report to the marshal, this is four hundred miles away, and there is a cold river blocking the river. He was granted the title of King Ding of Xiliang, with two sons and a daughter under his knees. The eldest son Fan Long and the second son Fan Hu were both brave enough to be unworthy of men. Prepare the ship early."

Qin Xiaole heard the words, pondered for a while, and ordered three generals, Cheng Chumo, Qin Meng, and Luo Zhang, to lead thousands of people to cut wood on the mountain, and immediately took his own token, and sent people to Chang'an City to report to his father, Qin Wenyuan, that he wanted the Mohist artisans to come to build ships.

In Chang'an City, Qin Wenyuan reported his son's request and quickly sent the head of the Mohist family to send several children to "Suoyang City" in Xiliang, and his son listened to it in front of his tent.

At this time, the emperor Li Zhi had already returned to the Eastern Capital Palace in Luoyang. The prince heard that the Tang army had beheaded the Queen of Xiliang, Su Jinlian, and was preparing to go west. After the victory, the soldiers and civilians in Chang'an and Luoyang were all rejoicing for a while, just like a festival.

Empress Wu was also happy to hear the good news from the front line, so she ordered the female officer to bring Princess Taiping and grandson Qin Dezhi into the palace together, and rewarded many gold and silver treasures.

Although Qin Xiaole and Princess Taiping's son is young, his strength is frighteningly strong, holding the gold and silver bestowed by his grandmother is as easy as nothing, as if no one can take it away from him, this boy is shining brightly With eyes like starlight, his face was full of excitement, and he clasped the gold and silver in his hands and shouted loudly: "It's all mine, it's all mine!"

Seeing this boy's funny and money-loving appearance, Wu Zetian smiled happily.

"This kid is worthy of being the seed of the Xu family, but he is very careful about protecting his wealth!"

Li Zhi looked at his grandson from the side, but he was very interested in this boy's tough body and unusually strong body, thinking that this boy must have learned the secret of the Xu family's self-cultivation, and he will become a rare warrior when he grows up.

When the warships of the Tang army were built, the army had already been delayed in "Suoyang City" for several months.

Just after the first day of the second year (680) of Tang Dynasty's "Tiaolu", the mountains, forests and roads were covered with white snow, and when everything in the world seemed to have entered the tranquility of hibernation, "Suoyang City" "In the middle, the air of killing is soaring, and there is a tense atmosphere of going to war.

Qin Xiaole and the civil servant who was good at watching the sky were observing the weather in the tower. After a while, the civil servant said: "I want to report to the Marshal, I am sure that the wind and snow will stop in a few days, and the army can move out!"

Qin Xiaole heard the words, turned back to the government office, gathered the generals to convey the military order, and announced that the army would enter "Hanjiang Pass" in a few days.

A few days later, the weather was clear and the sun was shining on the snow, which was very dazzling. After waiting for a few days for the ice and snow to melt, several cannons were fired in the "Suoyang City", and the army marched out. The mighty team and the flags were flying. Before, surrounded by dozens of generals, he urged his horse forward.

After several days of arduous trek, the army finally stopped at the opposite of "Hanjiang Pass", a highland [-] meters away from the river.

Qin Xiaole raised his account, Cheng Chumo, Qin Meng, and Luo Zhang handed in their orders, saying that they had prepared hundreds of warships, large and small, and were waiting for the general to cross the river to fight Xiliang soldiers.

Qin Xiaole heard the words and ordered dozens of generals to go to the riverside to check the terrain. When they came to the riverside, they saw that the river was surging, and the coast was already covered with warships of the Tang army. Each warship was stationed with archers. He was very satisfied, so he sent an order Xue Dingshan led the vanguard to cross the river to establish a stronghold, waiting for the army to follow up.

Xue Dingshan was ordered to take Dou Xiantong, Chen Jinding, Dou Yihu, Cheng Chumo and other generals to lead [-] troops on board and cross the river. After fighting with a small group of "Hanjiangguan" water troops patrolling the river, they quickly seized a strategic position on the opposite river bank. important place.

Qin Xiaole heard that the front army was marching smoothly, and ordered the camp to advance. After the army had crossed the river, it had already been a day and a night. After the whole army settled down and rested for a while, they heard that there was a challenge from the Xiliang army outside the camp.

It turned out that Fan Hong, a veteran general in "Hanjiang Pass", was defeated and returned to the water army in the pass to report that the Tang army had already crossed the river and set up camp. It can block the Tang army's offensive, and I really didn't expect the Tang army's warship to be so sharp.

This old ghost is watching the sky from a well, if he knows how powerful the Qin family's navy is, he rambles that the surface of the river like a creek is like a rough sea, how can it hold back the warships built with advanced ship technology.

Hearing that the Tang army had crossed the river, Fan Hong was helpless, and ordered the soldiers to prepare bows and arrows, rolling logs, ash bottles, kerosene and other defensive weapons at the pass, and then personally led [-] soldiers, and took his two sons out of the pass to the front of the Tang camp. .

Fan Long was the first to fight, he raised his sword and slapped his horse to a place within a stone's throw of Tang Ying, shouting loudly from his horseback.

"A certain is Fan Long, the vanguard of King Ding of Xiliang, who dares to fight me?"

Qin Xiao was happy to report that there was a challenge from a Xiliang general in front of the camp, and the commander said, "Which general is willing to fight?"

Shan Sijing came out and said, "The final general is willing to go!"

Qin Xiaole allowed Shan Sijing to fight, and ordered Qin Meng and Luo Zhang to go with him, and told them to fight for Shan Sijing and accumulate battlefield experience.

The three of them got an order, neatly dressed, ordered [-] soldiers and horses, and ordered the soldiers to beat the drums to open the camp. When they came outside the camp, they made the troops line up.

"Hu'er is insane. A certain family is Shan Sijing, a general under the command of Marshal Qin. He is here to meet you. If he has the guts, he will come here."

Hearing this, Fan Long was very annoyed, he raised his big saber in his hand, charged on his horse, when he got close to Shan Sijing, he used his saber to slice Huashan Mountain, and chopped off his head.

Shan Sijing saw that the ugly enemy was about to gain momentum, he hurriedly used his horse to parry, the weapons met, there was a "ding dong" sound, and sparks burst out, it was the general who met a good talent, they did not give in to each other, the battle lasted for dozens of rounds, Fan Long obviously Losing to Shan Sijing, the saber's momentum gradually loosened. In the Xiliang military camp, Fan Hu saw that his brother's situation was not right, so he rushed out to attack General Tang.

In the Tang army camp, Qin Meng got another general from the enemy camp, and said to Luo Zhang: "My brother, let's lead the troops to raid the formation, and wait for the eldest brother to help General Shan to defeat the enemy."

After saying that, without waiting for Luo Zhang's reply, he rushed out and killed Fan Hu with the spear in his hand.

Fan Long was very happy to see his younger brother coming to help the battle. Unexpectedly, Tang Jun sent out another general to block his younger brother from fighting. He was distracted for a while, and was hit on the shoulder by Shan Sijing's horse. The eldest son was defeated, General Tang pursued closely, fearing that his son would lose, he slapped his horse and rushed out to stop Shan Sijing.

Soldiers from the two armies beat drums to aid in the battle, and the people and horses caught each other and fought each other. Fan Hong held a big knife so that the water could not enter. It's good, I don't want to continue to fight, so I call my son Fan Hu to retreat to Guanzhong.

Fan Hu was at the critical moment of the battle with Qin Meng. Hearing his father's call, the sword in his hand was a little slower. Qin Meng seized the opportunity and used the spear in his hand to block his sword. He drew a copper mace from his back and hit him hard. Fan Hu hit the breastplate on his chest and smashed it to pieces.

Fan Hu suffered from pain, screamed, and leaned on his horse, and under the cover of his father, he quickly fled to the pass.

Seeing that his son was out of danger, Fan Hong swung his saber falsely, forced Shan Sijing and Qin Meng to retreat, turned the horse's head around, and urged the horse to return to the pass.

How could Shan Sijing and Qin Meng be willing to give up, they slapped their horses and chased after them, and they went to the front of the pass, but they were shot back by the arrows of the Xiliang archers at the pass.

Shan Sijing and Qin Meng had no choice but to retreat to the army formation, joined Luo Zhang's palms to win the battle and went back to the camp. Qin Xiaole wrote down the achievements of the three, and discussed how to capture "Hanjiang Pass" in the army tent.
