Chasing King

It's the Mid Autumn Festival again.

For the Han people, the Mid Autumn Festival is the most important festival besides the Spring Festival. The full moon in the sky reflects the reunion of the world. On this day, the soldiers and soldiers who have left their hometown will miss their relatives thousands of miles away.

The people in Yanzhou City are preparing for the festival. Although Taiyuan city is surrounded, they can't take away the auspicious joy of the people. They don't know that a war to change the national destiny of Dasheng is brewing. Under the surface calm, it is about to usher in a flood like outbreak.

Yan Sikong stood on the tower of Daying and looked at the peaceful Taiyuan City in the distance. He seemed to see that it would be full of holes and blood in a few hours. He thought about the countless lives he had carried along the way, none of which he knew by hand, but they all died because of him, and only numbness remained in his heart.

Feng Ye didn't know when he appeared beside him. He said in a soft voice, "Que Ji left Qingyang yesterday and will arrive soon. We are ready to wait for Zhou Ke's signal."

Yan Sikong nodded and did not speak.

"Are you looking at the moon?" Feng Ye looked up at the huge full moon in the sky.

Yan Sikong slightly raised his head and whispered: "it's not a good night in this life. Where can I see the moon next year?"

"Next year, we should watch it in the Forbidden City."

Yan Sikong laughed and sighed: "in fact, no matter where you are, you can see the same moon. Delicacies and delicacies are also blooming and falling. No matter how luxurious the houses were before you died, no matter how magnificent the mausoleum is after you died, you can live in only one inch of space. What is the purpose of striving for fame and profit in your life?"

Feng Ye sneered: "when it comes to fame and profit, how many people have won over you? On the contrary, you have such sentiment. Isn't it hypocritical?"

"Yes, it's a little pretentious." Yan Sikong said to himself, "when I was living in the street, all I wanted was to have a bite of rice. Now I'm probably too full."

"What people want in life is about..." Fengye thought, "live like a fairy."

"What's a fairy like life?" Yan Sikong turned his head and looked at Feng Ye. His deep and wise eyes were shining and darkening under the reflection of the moon. "Is there really an immortal in this world? Even if there is one, I don't think it's going to be like flying through the clouds, flying through the clouds, or being immortal. "

"Why?"

"Because people are people, and they can't get rid of people's worries and diseases, they turn all their fantasies into perfect" people ", which are the immortals of human imagination. Actually, people don't know whether there are immortals or not. Even if there are, it's not imaginable. If people want to know the truth, they just want to be "free as immortals."

Feng Ye said with a smile: "well said, I believe in destiny, but I'm not afraid of ghosts and gods. If I want to be" free as an immortal ", I have to rely on the sword in my hand."

Yan Sikong gave a wry smile and murmured, "the people who have entered the world are not happy."

Feng Ye gently shook his hand: "what you want is not carefree, but power, isn't it?"

"Yes." Yan Sikong looks at the distance with bright eyes.

"I'll give it to you." Feng Ye said in a deep voice, "whatever you want, I'll give it to you."

Yan thought hollow dirty ruthlessly jumped for a while, also tightly grasped the hand of Feng Ye.

with the sound of the drum and the fire of the night, Taiyuan is like the first battle of the night.

Fengye led a hundred thousand soldiers to rush out. The black army, like the wind of crossing the border, swept through the gloomy murderous atmosphere and went straight to Taiyuan. Without wasting a little time, it immediately attacked the city.

The armory was destroyed, at least the firearms of the imperial army were abandoned, and the artillery was the most lethal thing. Especially when they were under the siege, the shells were everywhere. Without the artillery, their soldiers could attack the city with greatly reduced casualties.

Sure enough, after firing dozens of shells on the upper floor of the city, the artillery of Taiyuan army stopped, while the Fengshen cannon of wolf king army kept roaring, and the wood and stone flew together. The soldiers held shields, carried arrows and rain, put down boards and crossed the moat.

The explosion in Taiyuan city is incessant, the remnants of the armory can not be cleaned up, and the towering and solid wall is in a mess.

After all, Taiyuan is Taiyuan, although there is no artillery, with the high wall and a continuous stream of tens of thousands of soldiers, the wolf king army can not attack the castle for a while.

The moat is deep and wide, and it's difficult to cross the ladder. The soldiers can only rely on the bamboo ladder and the gate. Under the city wall, the corpses pile up into mountains and gradually become ants. They step on the body of their companions and get closer to the tower.

Feng Ye and Yan Sikong stood in the rear, watching the soldiers like grass and mustard broken, lying corpses all over the field, blood flowing into a river, their hearts were full of pain, but the more damage they had, the more they could not retreat, otherwise they would die in vain.

Yan Si said in a deep voice, "it's almost time."

The yuan Nanyu appeared.

The herald blew two long and two short horns, and the sharp voice penetrated the artillery fire and penetrated into the night clearly.

After a while, the cry came from the southeast. Yuan Nanyu led 40000 soldiers out of the air and went straight to the weak defensive east gate to launch a fierce attack.In fact, from the moment when the armory was destroyed, Taiyuan's morale had collapsed, and Taiyuan's defeat had been decided.

After a night of fierce fighting, both sides suffered heavy losses. At dawn, yuan Nanyu took the lead in breaking through the east gate and entering the city, while Wang Mei led a team to break through and escape.

Feng Ye ordered Qian Cunxi to lead 5000 soldiers to chase after them, and took the rest of them into the city to completely control Taiyuan.

At the time of breaking the city, Feng Ye's eyes were red with excitement. He held the reins of his hand, and his bones were pale. Yan Sikong was also short of breath, and his heart could not be calm for a long time.

Taiyuan, they captured Taiyuan!

"Wolf king!" In the middle of the mess, a masked, bloody man came running.

"Que forget!" In front of Feng Ye's eyes, he ran quickly.

Yuan Nanyu was about to kneel down. Fengye helped him. Regardless of his blood, he hugged him hard, "good brother! It's worthy of being the first general of my family

Yuan Nanyu was so excited that he could see how much his chest was undulating through his chest armor

Feng Ye laughs heartily, happily, happily and freely.

Yan Sikong also ran to yuan Nanyu and asked anxiously, "are you hurt?"

All around are people, yuan Nanyu is not good to show too close, but he still can't help holding Yan Sikong's hand: "I'm ok, I haven't seen you for months, how are you?"

"I'm fine." Yan Sikong also took his hand and said in a trembling voice, "Yu General que has worked hard. "

Yuan Nanyu shook her head and her eyes turned red. "As long as you win, no matter how hard you work, I couldn't sleep for days and nights when I heard you were defeated..."

Feng Ye patted him on the shoulder: "now we have won, completely won." He said in a high voice, "it's no better to be the first in the Central Plains!"

The soldiers all called out: "the wolf king is wise!"

It's natural to say that Taiyuan is not so good. They fought all night and nearly half of their troops were destroyed. Since the day of the siege, so many people have never died. If yuan Nanyu didn't come, they might I'm afraid it will be a real defeat. Rao is a victory and a tragic victory.

But as long as they win, they will not worry about the food and grass for the time being. They are sitting in Taiyuan and looking at the capital, which is a big step closer to the magnificent imperial city!

When the sun rises, the miserable scene of a night's fierce battle is exposed to the light of the sky. It is a real picture of human purgatory. Even Yan Sikong, who is used to the battlefield, still feels suffocated. But the cost of winning is better than the cost of losing.

After a while, Qian Cunxi came back. He knelt down and clasped his fist. He was ashamed and said, "my subordinates are incompetent. They make Wang Mei and Shen Hexuan run away and ask the wolf king to punish them."

Feng Ye catches Luo Ruoxin, who is suffering from illness. He can't find Shen Hexuan all over the city, so he knows that he has run away. He says, "don't blame yourself. If he wants to run, ordinary people may not be able to catch him." He touched chin, "Shen Hexuan can run?"

Yan Sikong is also quite incredible: "according to his temperament, when the city is broken, even if he doesn't take Xie Junen for granted, he should wait for us to catch him, scold him a few words, and then save his life. How can he abandon the city and run away?"

Feng Ye narrowed his eyes: "maybe Wang Mei persuaded him. Anyway, this man will not die. I'm upset. I'll send scouts to follow him."

"Yes."

"What about Lorraine?" Yan Sikong asked.

Fengye couldn't help thinking of the defeat and disgrace he had tasted in Taiyuan. He said coldly: "beheading."

Yan Sikong thinks of his last meeting with Shen Hexuan, and of Shen Hexuan's loyalty to him mentioned in Chen Kai's heart. Then he contacts Shen Hexuan and runs away from the city today. He feels uneasy. Maybe his understanding of Shen Hexuan is still superficial. Maybe after so many changes, Shen Hexuan is no longer what he used to be. But just as Feng Ye said, if this man does not die, they can't be at ease.

This time, it took them half a year to cannibalize Taiyuan from the inside with a series of tricks, and finally defeat it. If they were enemies with Shen Hexuan in the future, could they still win.

Yan Sikong has a bad premonition, just as he feels that he is born extraordinary and will achieve great success. He also sees the same sense of destiny in Shen Hexuan. The contest between him and Shen Hexuan may have been predestined when he became an official, but now it is far from over =
