A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chen Ang was very anxious. He was restless and walked back and forth on the top of the city.

"That lunatic Zhe Jizu went crazy after hearing Shen An's words, but this is Fuzhou, you idiot, when you come back someone will definitely impeach you and make you disgraced!"

As the dusk grew darker, he slapped the city bricks and cursed: "Where's the news? Could it be that the entire army... where has the news gone?"

Seeing that he was restless, the officials on the side advised him: "Qian Ju, maybe there will be news later."

Under dusk, Chen Ang suddenly turned his head, his face full of ferocity.

"That's a madman! He dared to rescue the enemy without knowing the enemy's situation. Why should he? Just rely on Shen An's words and nonsense!"

He didn't notice that the officials were frightened by his ferociousness, and still shouted hysterically: "Then Shen An is restless. He dares to argue with the Liao envoy in front of the court, and he dares to lead people to intercept the Liao envoy." He dared to threaten the envoys and Xixia envoys and throw them in if they disobeyed... This is a madman!"

He gasped, took a step back, and leaned against the battlements, his eyes gradually glazed over: "That's a madman... According to the news from Bianliang, he even dared to humiliate the prime minister. Such a madman, Zhe Jizu dared to believe his words. , the entire army was annihilated...the entire army was annihilated right before our eyes..."

The officials all looked at him in panic. Some people's legs were shaking, some people's teeth were trembling, and their upper and lower rows of teeth collided, making a crisp sound.

The only sounds left on the quiet city top were Chen Ang's breathing and the clatter of teeth.

Chen Ang raised his head tiredly and said, "Go and see if the reinforcements from Hedong are coming."

A minor official said: "Qian Ju, even if we send reinforcements, it will take a long time to arrive."

Chen Ang took a deep breath and shouted: "Baode Army, ask someone to go to Baode Army for help!"

The Baode Army was on the other side, across the river from Fuzhou.

"Qian Ju, without the military order from Hedong Road, it would be impossible for the Baode Army to send troops."

Chen Ang slowly turned around and looked into the distance.

In the dark night, the distance is dark and unclear, as if a beast is opening its mouth to choose people to eat.

He shuddered and ordered: "The duty will be rotated tonight."

He asked someone to bring him a quilt, wrapped himself in it and sat on the top of the city to sleep.

The dew is heavy at night, and the late autumn nights in the northwest can freeze people to death.

Chen Ang didn't sleep well all night. He woke up in a daze in the early morning, opened his mouth and cursed: "What are you shouting for?"

The sergeant on duty at the top of the city pointed into the distance and shouted: "There are cavalry!"

Chen Ang's sleepiness dissipated in an instant. He threw away the quilt and shouted: "The whole army is on alert, let them come up, all of them come up."

He was lying on the top of the city, and when the cold wind blew, his nose immediately ran down.

"How many? How many?"

"Hundreds...can't see clearly!"

Chen Ang wiped the guano from the corners of his eyes and tried to look into the distance.

There were numerous figures in the distance, and under the morning light, one could only vaguely see a group of cavalry approaching.

"Could this be... the Rangers coming after the enemy's victory..."

He sniffed and hissed: "Blow the trumpet, blow the trumpet, and let the whole city come up! The enemy... the enemy is coming."

The desolate sound of horns echoed in the city. Countless people got up from their beds, quickly got dressed, and then rushed out of their homes carrying various weapons at home.

In the cold wind in the early morning, the men of Fuzhou City gathered in a crowd on the street, and then ran towards the city.

Fuzhou City is their home. Once this home is destroyed, it is impossible for them to cross the Yellow River to escape.

Fuzhou City, which hangs alone on the edge of the Yellow River, is like a warrior. Together with Linzhou, it formed the Song Dynasty's first line of defense against Xixia.

The people here are tough, but they are not born with it. If you are not tough, you will have to wait for death.

Fuzhou cannot tolerate weak people or effeminacy.

A group of people rushed to the top of the city and lined up along the city wall.

Arrows were brought up in bundles, and various defensive methods were prepared.

Fuzhou City has awakened and is preparing for war.

Everyone was waiting in formation, and the breath they exhaled gathered at the top of the city, like mist, which was a spectacular sight.

Chen Ang pulled out his long sword and shouted: "Cheer up, everyone, the city is here and the people are there, but the city is not... and the people are gone, we have to fight hard..."

"Desperately!"

Everyone shouted together, with great momentum.

The cavalry was getting closer and closer, and the sergeant with good eyes on the top of the city suddenly shouted: "The ones in front... the ones in front seem to be our people."

The sky gradually became brighter, and someone shouted: "It's Fan Ren! Fan Ren is coming!"

Chen Ang trembled when he heard this. Those Fan people were not easy to deal with. They wandered among the Three Kingdoms. Although the Song Dynasty was the closest to them, their attitude was still ambiguous.

In the past, the Zhe family relied on their prestige to suppress them, but Zhe Jizu was not around, but they came now.

"Prepare……"

Chen Ang gritted his teeth and stared down. An official said, "Qianjia, why do you look at... them looking a little scared?"

Chen Ang looked carefully, shook his head and said: "Be careful of fraud, ask clearly!"

The cavalry had already arrived at the city. Before asking any questions, the Song army shouted: "Qian Ju, our army has won a great victory!"

What?

Chen Ang felt his eyes were a little dull, so he shouted: "What kind of victory?"

The Song army at the foot of the city shouted: "Our army encountered the enemy yesterday. After a hard battle, the enemy was defeated and won a great victory."

Chen Ang felt his head was spinning, and he murmured: "That's not right! This is definitely not right! How could they win? Shen An... are his words right?"

"Qianjia, are you opening the city gate?"

Someone asked from the side.

Chen Ang didn't know what he was thinking, "Be careful and keep the cavalry they bring away."

This is a prudent decision, but someone said worriedly: "Qianjia, those people are domineering and unruly, I'm afraid they won't listen! If I offend them..."

Fan people often cause chaos, and Zhejia is in charge of Fuzhou. He has prestige and experience, so he can still control it.

This is also the reason why the imperial court can only allow the Zhe family to serve as generals here for generations.

Chen Ang muttered: "Be careful and ask them to retreat, otherwise don't open the door."

There are only two thousand soldiers in the city, and the rest are civilians. If they are really attacked, there will definitely be chaos.

Someone was lying on the top of the city and shouted: "Come in, the leader, and the rest will stay back!"

Everyone was a little nervous, worried that people would cause trouble.

"They retreated!"

"They retreated without even yelling!"

"Is someone really blind? Those unruly people are so docile?"

Chen Ang glanced down and was stunned.

Although the Ban people were suppressed, they were still unruly. All rules were nonsense to them, and not following the rules was the norm.

Normally, such requests in the city would have triggered scoldings.

But now those people retreated very meekly, leaving only two leaders.

"This is……"

Chen Ang felt that the world had become a little strange.

The city gate opened, and more than ten Song soldiers came in with two Fan leaders.

Chen Ang watched them walking up to the top of the city and whispered: "Be careful and see what they mean. Let's..."

His words were interrupted.

The two leaders knelt down on one knee and spoke almost piously.

what does this mean?

Chen Ang's first reaction was that his virtue had moved heaven and earth, so he influenced these people.

The interpreter said at the side: "...They say...the Song Dynasty is the kingdom of heaven, where the gods live. They will always obey the emperor's words. Whatever the emperor tells them to do...they will do whatever they want."

This is not right!

Chen Ang was confused.

The Song people next to them also looked puzzled.

How could these people ever be loyal to the Song Dynasty? The emperor was just shit in their eyes, let alone appoint them.

Don't try to get us to move unless it's good for you.

So after hearing this, Chen Ang even thought that he was hearing hallucinations.

But these two Banren leaders had pious expressions on their faces, as if they had met gods.

Chen Ang felt something was wrong, and when he saw Song Jun who had come with them looking embarrassed, he asked, "What's wrong with them?"

Is this twitching?

A sergeant said proudly: "Qian Ju, they happened to pass by after the war, and they were frightened by Jingguan. Later, Shen Daizhao said something that made him cry bitterly, saying that everything was wrong in the past, so the governor sent a small When people came to report their victory, they took the initiative to ask for an escort.”

Many Xixia people who were dispersed that day were still stranded nearby, and they would not leave until they received news that the main force had been defeated.

Therefore, a victory must be protected by cavalry.

"Jingguan?"

Others don't understand Jingguan, but Chen Ang, who is well-read, knows it very well.

"yes."

The sergeant looked shocked, "After the war, Shen Taizhao collected the corpses and heads of the enemy soldiers, and built a large Beijing temple opposite Baisheng Village, which looks like it... can give people nightmares. "

The recent construction of the Beijing Temple in the Song Dynasty had to be traced back to Di Qing, but it was far away in Jiaozhi. The civil servants were very dissatisfied with this, so the news was not widely spread.

"Oh my god...he actually cast the Beijing Temple?"

Jingguan is cruel to kind people, and Chen Ang feels that he is a kind person.

The sergeant was still talking: "...There are many sights and views to show the righteousness of the world! There are so many bones and white bones, let's see Han'er kill people! Qianzhi, when the villain heard this, he wished he could immediately draw his sword out of its sheath and fight all the way to the outside of the wall. go……"

After he finished speaking, he felt that the surroundings were quiet, so he took a look.

Everyone is in a daze.

Someone murmured: "There are so many Beijings and temples to show the righteous way of heaven and earth! There are so many bones and white bones, look at Han'er killing people... Such murderous intent! But why does a certain person feel relaxed and relieved?"

"My blood boiled after hearing this. Waiting for the imperial edict...well said!"

"Well said! You told me Han'er's innermost thoughts!"

Chen Ang felt a little dizzy.

He held the city head and looked into the distance. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net

The sky is bright, and the sun is slanting down from the east. In the mist, the Fuzhou Army was looming.

"The cavalry is coming."

"It's Zhizhou, Zhizhou is back!"

Amid the cheers, a group of cavalry was galloping over.

Chen Ang saw Zhe Jizu, and then he saw Shen An.

"A great victory! A great victory for our army!"

Their arrival completely confirmed the news of the great victory, and those people were released home. The news continued to spread in the city, and the cheers gradually became louder and louder.

"Long live the Song Dynasty!"
