twin moon

Chapter 212 No.20 Scene Eight: Chijia Liaoyuan VI

In the second year of Zhaoxi, the sixth day of June, early in the morning.The sky will be bright, the stars and the moon will be dim.A touch of gold gradually lit up on the horizon, and the golden roof of the main hall overlooking the whole city of the Wannian Palace seemed to be lit up by the rising sun in a blink of an eye, as if a fire had been ignited.

As the sun dispelled the shadows on the ground, a silver-white team consisting of tens of thousands of people appeared in the sight of the guards like mercury pouring on the black ground outside the city.

However, the appearance of Wei Liang's army did not cause much disturbance in the city.Just after Pingdan, the Tuen Mun guards stationed in various gates are still changing their guards in an orderly manner.The only difference was the sound of rumbling drums that resounded throughout the city, but no one seemed to care.

As early as a few days ago, Zhechong, Wuwei, and Xiaoqi Sanwei, who were ordered to go out of the city to stop the enemy at Longshoudu, were defeated and retreated hastily. Zhu Ren was also trampled to death by chaotic horseshoes in the chaos. Not even the bones were recovered.However, right now, the city's richest men and nobles, down to the scholars and white men, only sighed a little after tea and dinner, and no one planned to pack up their belongings and escape from the city as soon as possible.

And it was all because of the Shodi Rebellion a hundred years ago.At that time, even though Lingdi Baijiangchun abandoned the city and did not defend it, the defenders and the people in the city fought against the enemy with all their strength and were determined not to surrender. With the high city wall, they successfully blocked hundreds of thousands of iron-heavy mountains outside the city until Guan Ning's soldiers marched northward, killing the barbarians and defeating them.

Therefore, in the eyes of the people of Yujing, the tall city walls that stand between themselves and the guard Liang army outside the city, and that have been reinforced several times since Baijiang Linran ascended the throne, seem to be insurmountable and impenetrable amulets.Even if the opponent's soldiers are strong and powerful, they can still protect the whole city.It was impossible for Tie Chongshan to break through Yujing back then, and it is also impossible for Guan Ning's soldiers today.

However, before the first ray of sunlight from the east entered the open door of the Wannian Hall, the voices of two men arguing could be heard above the main hall.

Kunjie led his men into the city before the city gate was locked.But in front of him there was peace and tranquility, and he was still very surprised by the vastly different scene outside the city.At this time, although he in the hall tried his best to maintain his calmness as before, he still couldn't hide the strange expression on his face, and his tone became a little hasty:

"Now you are still carefully preparing for your enthronement! Could it be that the tense battle outside the city is nothing to worry about in your eyes?"

Although Gao Li disliked the person in front of him very much, and was even more annoyed that the other party wasted his time at this juncture, he still tried his best to suppress the unhappiness in his heart, and bowed to Kun Jie who was pacing repeatedly in front of him, and walked leisurely. Replied:
"The first seat, please rest assured. This Yu capital is absolutely impossible to be breached. Thinking about a hundred years ago——"

But before he finished speaking, he was abruptly interrupted by the other party:
"You don't need to tell me what happened a hundred years ago!"

"My subordinates know that the Shuo Di Rebellion a hundred years ago was also written by the Chief. But according to my subordinates' understanding, my lord did not count on it at that time. Those barbarians would be blocked under Suoyang Pass, let alone expected To Yujing to besiege the city, the First World War lasted for three years."

He never thought that the deacon elder who had always obeyed Kun Jie's words would actually contradict him face to face.

The tall and thin man was taken aback for a moment, and then asked in an expected tone:
"Could it be that you actually think that two things in the world can follow the same trajectory? A hundred years ago, Emperor Dasheng retreated to defend Suoyang Pass. Xu Muyan was besieged for several months and failed to capture it. He had no choice but to stop at the northern foot of Tongyan Mountain. But Now, the Wei Liang army broke through the blockade you set up at Suoyang Pass in just one night. How do you have the confidence to think that this city of land people can hold on?"

"The Battle of Suoyang Pass was tricked by Naluqiu Borong. However, there is nothing wrong with the city of Yujing. As long as the defenders can obey orders and the firebolts are allotted, I understand how strong the guards will be. , and it is absolutely impossible to get close to the city, let alone break through the city gate easily!"

Gao Li suddenly raised his head, striding with his head held high, towards the gold-painted panlong chair placed on the high platform in front of him.He laughed wildly in his mouth, as if he had fallen into madness:
"There are three more days, and three more days until my grand day of ascension to the throne! At that time, all people on the land will obey my orders! First seat, this is an unprecedented opportunity for our clan, which is rare and rare!"

"How can it be a good opportunity?" Kun Jie snorted softly, squinting at the other party.

"Isn't it? The reason why the first seat sent his subordinates into the palace back then was that there would be such a day? If all the people on the land obeyed my orders, why would they be prevented from returning to the land? In addition, the land is rich in resources and talented people. Jiji, the search for the holy city in the north also helped a lot, and even recruited peasants to open mountains and rivers, without wasting the people's effort, blood and sweat, isn't it a huge benefit and no harm?"

"So, you have always planned this in your heart—"

There was an imperceptible hint of coldness in Kunjie's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it and did not explode on the spot, "It's just that you haven't calculated it, if something unexpected happens right now, things are not as they are. What do you want?"

"The first Mingjian, the following sentence is sincere, in order to help the adults find the holy city smoothly, and also to let the clansmen fulfill their long-cherished wish for thousands of years, to re-measure the mountains and rivers of the homeland with both feet, and to taste the things that can only be read in books. The delicacies are delicious, so that you can breathe the sweet air, instead of mourning and self-pitying in the bitter salt water in the Chanying Sea all day long. When that day comes, our clan should sing loudly and celebrate together!"

Gao Li bowed to the bottom again, with tears in his eyes.

If it was an ordinary person, he would have been moved by such a fistful heart.However, Kun Jie shook his head lightly, stepped forward and pressed his shoulder:

"You—after all, you've stayed on land for too long, and you've indulged in the luxuries and extravagance of land people, and you've been blinded by the world. Don't forget, all the prosperity in front of you is vain. It was the reason why our ancestors set themselves on fire to bring about their own destruction, and it was also the reason why my ancestors escaped into the deep sea and lived in seclusion! Even so, do you still insist on being the emperor of the people on land?"

Hearing this, Gao Li's shoulders trembled suddenly, but he didn't know how to answer, he just lowered his eyes and his whole body was stiff.However, the silence at this time is the acquiescence to the problem of the thin and tall man.Kunjie sighed lightly, and immediately changed the subject:

"When the dust of Yujing's siege settles, it will be the beginning of my journey to the north with my people. At that time, I hope that the deacons and elders will finally change their minds and walk side by side with me."

After finishing speaking, the tall and thin man put the wide cloak of Yuyi back on his body again, and left the palace without looking back.

At the same time, [-] miles south of the city, [-] miles north of Longshoudu, a chase that lasted for two days and three nights has gradually come to an end.

Wearing black robes and armor, the Ye State boat master miraculously withstood wave after wave of attacks from the opposing Shuodi cavalry at the cost of only nine people being killed and dozens of people injured. .However, what they didn't know was that all of this was due to the old friendship between the leader of the opposing team and Han Gu Nianye's comrades in the national army, so they didn't order the soldiers under their command to charge with all their strength, but hoped that they could recognize that the defeat was over. Set, disarm and surrender.

Even so, Ye Guojun, who hadn't closed his eyes for a long time, was still exhausted.Right now, even Leng Jiayun, who was traveling with him, had to hold a sharp blade and stand between the soldiers on the left and right, so as to forcefully form a large triangular formation with sharp edges and corners on the battlefield.

It was the oyster array that once made the whole country proud.However, in today's formation, there are no heavily armored infantry holding giant shields, no warriors holding halberds, and even fewer cavalry on both wings to respond, and even a slight shortage of manpower for formation.

At this time, General Yan immediately stood in front of the [-] red-armored cavalry, and looked at Ye's army, which was already surrounded by layers a hundred paces away, but he did not give the order to attack for a long time.

Meng Dun beside him finally couldn't hold back anymore, and urged him to step forward and ask:

"Dahehan, for more than two days, the soldiers have been lingering in front of the enemy's formation, and only nine of them were beheaded. Three of them were scouts who came to explore the camp at night. There are only a thousand people on the other side. If you don't Take it all at once, in case the reinforcements—”

However, before he finished speaking, Jiang Yan seemed not to be listening at all, and suddenly opened his mouth to interrupt:
"Do you know who is the chief general wearing the silver mask leading the army in the opposing formation?"

Meng Dun didn't know what the young Hehan wanted to say, but shook his head suspiciously.

The black-eyed boy continued to say: "What you see before me is the male horn formation created by my teacher Xiang Baili. This formation is usually composed of three diamond-shaped formations arranged in the shape of a character. The triangular formation in front of me is a unique skill that the general has never made public. It is specially used to deal with the dilemma of defending the many with the few and defending the strong with the weak. What's more, I have never been able to figure out which general under Qi Shouyu's command actually Can you learn such a formation without a teacher?"

Hearing this, Monton shook his head vigorously:
"Please forgive me for speaking out. We have already wasted too much time on this army of Ye Kingdom! The longer we delay with them now, the more dangerous the person you want to rescue will be in Yujing. It's better Go forward with all your strength and take down the masked general, and you'll know if you ask!"

Jiang Yan tightened the rein in his hand, pulling Wu Chen's head high, as if he was still hesitating.However, after a while, he finally made up his mind, pointed his right hand forward, and the thousands of soldiers behind him lined up side by side in several long lines. The Red Flame Army, who had already been eager to try, was like a prairie wildfire spreading straight towards the country of Ye The army array launched a full charge.

On Qi Ziyin's side, seeing the barbarian cavalry approaching, the warriors also drew their swords and drove forward.When the two armies meet, it is like wildfire meeting a rock.The red tide was divided by the tip of the oyster formation, so it had to disperse along the edge of the blade-lined formation to both sides, but it was too late to go around the back of the formation and make a surprise attack.

However, although the male horn array arranged in this way is difficult to break through for a while, it cannot last for a long time.Under the continuous impact of the cavalry, some soldiers in the formation couldn't hold on. They were hooked by the neck and limbs by the lasso thrown by the opponent's formation, and were ruthlessly pulled away from their original position. engulfed by the red tide.

With the decrease in the number of people outside, Ye Guojun became more and more stretched.What was barely coping at the beginning was about to turn into a defeat without any suspense.Seeing this, Qi Ziyin immediately shouted and waved his Yinya:

"Change, change! Today we are here to save people, not to die in battle by barbarians!"

Following the order, the male horn formation quickly turned into a slender rhombus wedged into the cavalry.The cavalry didn't expect that the opponent could change formation, and the red torrent seemed to be pierced by a sharp sword in an instant.And the point that the sharp blade was pointing at was actually where Jiang Yan was located!
As the saying goes, capture the king first, Qi Ziyin has already made a plan in his heart - even if all the thousand soldiers under his command are as good as ten, they can only compete with the opponent.What's more, it is very difficult to resist the cavalry charge with infantry, and all he can do is to attack in one fell swoop when the opponent thinks he has the chance to win and is paralyzed. Under the banner of the flag!

Jiang Yan didn't expect that the opponent could turn a mere thousand people into defense, and he couldn't help feeling a little admiration in his heart.Under the chaos in front of the battle, he suddenly raised his sword and rode his horse. He actually led the [-] guard cavalry carefully selected by his side to meet the enemy in the direction of the enemy, intending to capture the enemy general alive.

At this time, beside Qi Ziyin, Xuanjia soldiers were still being cut down to the ground.Even if he didn't lose his life on the spot, he was engulfed by thousands of horseshoes and could never be found again.Even Leng Jiayun and Mo Zeming, who were still following closely behind him, had long since disappeared.

He only felt his nose sore, and his heart was full of unwillingness.However, amidst the blurred tears, he suddenly saw a person in the enemy formation wearing red armor and riding a pure black horse rushing towards him. It was the barbarian Hehan!
Immediately he was furious and swung his saber to meet them. The two of them, one dark and one red, one fast and the other slow, passed each other in a split second.But in this short moment, Qi Ziyin saw that what the other party was holding was actually a black-gold seven-foot Mo knife!And Jiang Yan, who wanted to defeat the enemy with one blow, suddenly realized that the move used by this hard-to-discern enemy in front of him to block his full-strength blow was actually the Five Swordsmanship taught by Baili himself!
Among the rebellious army, although the two have not confirmed each other's identities, they shouted at the same time as if they had a tacit understanding: "Retract the troops".

The retreating horn of the Red Flame Army sounded.The two armies, one black and one red, were fighting together. At first, it was difficult to understand the sudden sound of the trumpet. However, after a little hesitation, the barbarian army, which was already at a disadvantage, had a tacit understanding and stopped pursuing, but let it go. Ye's army moved away from him and stopped fighting.

And the figures of the two young people in front of the formation are also hugging each other tightly at this moment!
