The daily life of Dali Siqing

Chapter 571
"I know this big defeat. This is the biggest reason why Wu Qianqiu was demoted from the general of the Longwu Army to become a general in Yecheng. One of the military merits. But the records here are really vague, who is the commander of the Tiance Army? What is his current position?! Will he have any connection with Wu Qianqiu?!"

Such files are too vague. It would be great if we could check the files of the Ministry of War now.

"Han Shanggong, you have to do me a favor!"

Yu Yanyi pulled Han Sumi to the side.

"Scholar Yu, please tell me!"

Yu Yanyi asked for help, Han Sumi naturally would not refuse, but would be very happy.

"At this moment, Jinyiwei in Jinyang City is no longer trustworthy. I need your help to deliver the information. Go to the Ministry of War in the capital to inquire about this file."

Han Sumi nodded. As the leader of Lijingmen, although her main job is to guard the palace, she still has some authority.

"Bachelor Yu, don't worry, I'll do it right away!"

Yu Yanyi nodded, then turned around and walked out, waiting for news is not advisable.

He wants to continue to check the files.
-
Jin Yiwei commander Yu Yanyi ordered the arrow to arrive at Beijingmen.

But at this time, Xiang Ming, the guard of the Beijing gate, did not stick to the north gate.

"Where's General Xiang?!" Jin Yiwei, the leader, sensed that something was wrong.

"General Xiang took people to Beidingmen to discuss matters with General Chen." The deputy general of Beijingmen explained.

"But Yu Shuai has a strict order to be careful tonight, to guard against the night attack of Mohe soldiers and horses, how can he leave his post without authorization?!"

"This?! This is the military order that we haven't received from the Grand Scholars!?"

Looking at the bewildered lieutenant general, Jin Yiwei Baihu knew that something was wrong.

The few of them are different from the people in the Jinyang Jinyi Guards, they are all trusted people brought by Xuanwu from Beizhen Fusi, and they are aware of the crisis in the city at the moment.

Just when the few people didn't know what to do, they saw someone approaching with hundreds of soldiers in the distance.

The lieutenant general and the others immediately went on alert. Could it be that this person came to open the city gate to lure Mohe soldiers into the city? !
Just when everyone was on alert, they saw clearly the face of the person coming under the light of the fire.

"Deputy General Zhao?!"

Seeing the person coming, everyone was stunned.

Unexpectedly, the person who arrived turned out to be Chen An's deputy general, Zhao Qian.

"Vice General Zhao, you are not on duty at the Beiding Gate, why did you come here at Kuiye?!"

Zhao Qian suddenly led troops here, making everyone suspicious.

But Zhao Qian on the opposite side also had a bewildered expression.

"I was ordered to come to support!"

"what?!"

After the two sides looked at each other, they fell into a brief silence.

"We, General Chen, received a request from General Xiang for help, saying that someone wanted to sneak attack Beijingmen, so I led [-] elite soldiers to rescue. After my general arranges the defense of Beidingmen, he will personally lead [-] soldiers." The source of elite soldiers. But this..."

Zhao Qian didn't say what he said later, but everyone knew it.

According to Xiang Ming, the Beijing Gate, which was attacked by surprise, is so quiet and unbelievable at the moment, it doesn't look like it was attacked at all.

"Is there no one sneak attack here?!"

Zhao Qian asked awkwardly.

Everyone present felt that something was wrong.

There are 18 troops under Yu Yanyi's command. Excluding the soldiers and horses arranged in the northern and southern counties, there are a total of 10 soldiers and horses in Jinyang City.

10 people sound like a lot, but they have to defend the eight gates and all the walls of Jinyang City, and 2 people have been used by Yu Yanyi as a reserve team, which means that the current eight gates of Jinyang There are only 8 soldiers and horses.

Among them, Dongzhengmen and Dongzhaomen, which were attacked most violently, had 5000 and 2 people respectively.

However, Beijingmen and Beidingmen were not the key targets of the Mohe army, and there were not many soldiers stationed there.

There are [-] gates in Beijing and [-] gates in Beiding.

According to what Zhao Qian said now, there are nearly 4000 troops from Beidingmen to support them. Isn't the defense of Beidingmen weakened by nearly half? !

The generals immediately realized that the so-called attack on Beidingmen was just a cover for the purpose of mobilizing the troops from Beidingmen and leaving Beidingmen's defense force empty.

"..."

"Not good! Beidingmen is in danger! We need help!"

The deputy general in charge of Beijingmen also wanted to understand the situation. Just when everyone was in doubt, a shocking cry of killing suddenly came from the direction of Beidingmen.

"I will keep 3000 troops to protect the safety of Beiding Gate. Deputy General Zhao and the remaining 4000 troops will borrow you to ensure that Beiding Gate will not be lost."

Although the deputy general of Beijingmen knew that his troops were also weak, he still borrowed [-] soldiers and horses to Zhao Qian without authorization.

Now is not the time to fight each other. Once Beidingmen falls, everyone will have to finish the game.

Jin Yiwei Baihu also got up immediately, and said, "Everyone, I will report to my lord and Xuanwu Commander immediately!"
-
Beidingmen.

Xiang Ming was a little annoyed. He was invited by Beiding gate guard Chen Anzhi, but after arriving here, he didn't see Chen An.

He and Chen An have a close friendship, and the two sides often refer to each other's defense recently. In his spare time, he will come to Beidingmen to learn Chen An's city defense strategy; Chen An is the same.

But this is the first time such a long wait.

At first Xiang Ming could wait, because the sergeant at Beidingmen had prepared a table of good food for him and asked him to wait a while, while Chen An was counting the ordnance.

Xiang Ming didn't care either. Who doesn't have a busy time with military affairs? !
But now that all the dishes on the table have been eaten, Chen An, the head of the Beiding Gate, still hasn't been seen, which makes Xiang Ming anxious.

"Where did your general go?!"

The soldiers on the side were also embarrassed. What Chen An told him was to let him entertain Xiang Ming with food and wine first, and then he would come later.

"General Xiang, I really don't know! My general just told me to treat you well, and he will be back soon."

"you……"

Just after Xiang Ming wanted to reprimand the soldier, a loud noise interrupted his reprimand.

"Catapult!? It's a surprise attack by the Mohe people!"

Xiang Ming immediately rushed towards the city wall from the dwellings under the city tower.

Then, a heavy horn sounded, as if to prove Xiang Ming's guess.

"Rocket!"

The soldiers on duty on the city wall also immediately launched a counterattack. Hundreds of rockets soared into the sky.
-
At this time, the Beijingmen's defenses seemed a little lax.

Originally, there were 7000 men and horses for defense here, but Zhao Qian took away 4000 people, and 3000 people guarding the Beijing Gate appeared to be short of manpower.

At the beginning, the soldiers of Beijingmen were still a little nervous, and there were constant shouts of killing coming from the direction of Beidingmen.

The soldiers of Beijing Gate were worried that Beiding Gate would also be attacked.

But as time went by, everyone's hanging hearts gradually let go!
Judging by Mohe's posture, it was obvious that he wanted to gather troops to storm Beidingmen, so that Beijingmen would be safer.

Just when everyone was relaxing, they found someone approaching in the darkness.

"who!"

"Don't be nervous, it's me!" A familiar voice made the gatekeepers immediately let down their vigilance.

It turned out that... just halfway through the conversation, the soldiers guarding the gate were ambushed by the people brought by this person.

All are fatal.

The torch that fell to the ground revealed the true face of this person.

The guards under the tower heard the noise under the gate and asked.

"What happened!?"

"Nothing?! Accidentally tripped."

The soldiers on the tower immediately yelled angrily, "Be careful, don't be surprised, you will get sick from fright!"

……
-
Xiang Ming was in the tower of Beidingmen, looking suspiciously at the Mohe soldiers coming like a tide.

Although the Mohe people were screaming and killing, they still couldn't get close to the city wall for a long time, the thunder was loud, and the rain was light.

Xiang Ming was very puzzled by this situation. Is this a feint attack? !
But there was no movement from other city gates. What is the purpose of the Mohe people? !

Just when Xiang Ming was puzzled, he suddenly saw the words Beidingmen on the tower.

He is the chief general of the Beijingmen, but he appeared in Beidingmen at this moment, so it is already obvious where the main attack direction of the Mohe people is.

"He immediately flew down the tower, mounted a fast horse, and rushed towards the direction of Beijing Gate."

Just as Xiang Ming flew his horse, he suddenly encountered a large group of soldiers and horses coming from the direction of Beijing Gate.

The leader is Zhao Qian.

"General Xiang!"

Zhao Qian's hand was already on the handle of the knife.

Seeing the large group of soldiers and horses, Xiang Ming already understood that this was a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

"It's too late to say, Mohe people's tricks, immediately return to Beijingmen!"

Zhao Qian originally wanted to take Xiang Ming down, but at this moment, his expression did not seem to be fake, and his father Xiang Chong had a great reputation in the northern border.

Zhao Qian decided to trust Xiang Ming once!
"Turn around and support Beijing Gate!"
-
"what?!"

Yu Yanyi was also slightly angry when he heard the rewards from Jinyiwei's hundreds of households. After Xiang Ming was a hero in the founding of the country, his father, Pengcheng Bo Xiang Chong, was the vanguard of King Kaiping. He was brave, invincible, and loyal.

Although the emperor cut off the title of the Xiang family, this was not a heavy punishment, but an extrajudicial favor.

Yixiang Ming formed a party for private interests, controlled water transportation, evaded taxes, and was punished for several crimes. According to the law, he was sentenced to beheaded, and his family members were exiled for three thousand miles.

But Emperor Zhou thought of his father's military exploits and made a lenient policy. He just cut off his title, took back his mansion, and let him serve in the Longwu Army.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Ming would betray Da Zhou now, and his crime was unforgivable.

Just when Yanyi was angry, the sound of horns and shouts of killing came from the direction of Beidingmen.

"Not good, the Mohe people are attacking the city, you should pass on the order of the general governor immediately, and transfer [-] reserve troops to Beidingmen to assist in the defense."

All of a sudden, the army in the city moved.

After giving the order, Yu Yanyi sat in front of the desk and looked at the Jinyang city defense map on the table. Everything about tonight was in Yanyi's mind, appearing like a revolving lantern.

Although he is not good at reasoning and judging cases, everything tonight is weird.

Wu Qianqiu? !Tiance Army? !Xiang Ming? !
"Chen An! He is from the Tiance Army." Yu Yanyi immediately got up and ordered, "Five thousand more soldiers and horses will be dispatched to Beijingmen. At the same time, it is reported that Chen An, the general from Beidingmen, will come to see me."

This matter is not as simple as they see.

……
-
As the torches of the gatekeepers fell, the people who attacked and killed the sergeants guarding the Beijing Gate also revealed their true colors in the light of the fire.

It was Chen An, the guard of Beiding Gate.

He and Xiang Ming have a very close friendship, and they often exchange strategies for city defense with each other, and they often come to Beijing Gate.Because of this, Chen An could easily approach and kill them.

"Hurry up and go to the place where the brothers are ambush, and light five signal arrows. Put them side by side, and I will open the city gate here to welcome the Mohe people into the city."

Chen An led people to drag the corpses of the gatekeepers to the shadows, and immediately gave orders to his confidants.

"Yes!" The two of them immediately ran to a residential house in the distance, and after a while, five signal arrows shot up into the sky side by side.

While Chen An was anxiously waiting for the Mohe people to advance, a voice startled him.

"Huh?! Uncle Chen, why are you here?!" Xiang Ming's eldest son, Xiang Shoucheng, spoke.

This dude also appeared in the grain draft, but unfortunately, he became Yang Qingyuan's background board.

Looking at Xiang Shoucheng who suddenly appeared, Chen An was a little nervous.

"Nephew Xiang Xian, aren't you on duty today? Why didn't you go to have a good rest?"

While Chen An was talking, he roughly counted Xiang Shoucheng and brought eight people, and he was determined to deal with them directly, so he winked at his confidant.He himself went up to greet Chen An.

Xiang Shoucheng pursed his lips, "Uncle Chen, don't mention it! I originally wanted to have a good night's sleep and rest, but I heard the screams of killing from the direction of Beidingmen. I was worried, so I came to have a look." !"

Having said that, Xiang Shoucheng was taken aback for a moment.

"Uncle Chen, you are not the chief general of Beidingmen. Why are you here at this time...Huh? Is this the smell of blood?!" Xiang Shoucheng suddenly smelled a smell of blood, and the moment Chen An turned his head, he saw The blood was spattered on Chen An's face.Suddenly the pupils shrank.

"Do it!" Chen An ordered Xiang Shoucheng to do it the first time he sensed something was wrong, and drew out his waist knife himself, and slashed at Xiang Shoucheng.

Xiang Shoucheng didn't react for a while, but fortunately, his own martial arts were still higher than Chen An's, and he was also known for his dexterity and agility. When Chen An slashed, he pulled out half of the long sword at his waist to block the knife. , the whole person took advantage of his strength to take five steps back.

But the people he brought didn't have his reaction and speed. They were all attacked and killed by Chen An's close subordinates the moment Chen An said to do it.

As soon as Chen An saw Xiang Shoucheng retreating, he immediately stepped forward to attack. He knew that if he failed to seize the opportunity and Xiang Shoucheng gained a firm foothold, he might not be able to last fifty moves under Xiang Shoucheng's sword.

As soon as Xiang Shoucheng jumped back, he was entangled by Chen An who was pressing forward.He had no choice but to parry Chen An's Yanling Saber again.

"What happened?!"

The soldiers on the tower heard the movement and immediately asked down.

But the only answer to him was the sound of swords and swords blocking each other.

"I'll support him! You open the city gate and let the soldiers and horses enter the city!" Chen An continued to use knives to suppress Xiang Shoucheng, not giving him a chance to fight back, and at the same time let the soldiers who had already dealt with Xiang Shoucheng's subordinates open the city gate.

"kill!"

"kill!!!"

Outside the originally quiet Beijingmen, there was a loud cry of killing suddenly. In the darkness, the ground trembled slightly, and the cavalry of the brigade was charging towards the gate of Beijingmen!
