Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

The horsemen and soldiers on the road flowed slowly, and the surrounding mountains were layered on top of each other, and the shadows of the mountains in the distance looked like dark clouds.

On the roadside, he rode backwards and galloped over. When he saw Yeluxiu and others in front of the banner of honor, the knight hurriedly stopped the horse, jumped off the horse, pressed his right hand on his chest and bent over and said, “I’m sorry, Jinyang has been The army breaks through!"

The complexion of Yeluxiu, who had been looking at Tianyi's majestic face, suddenly changed. He hurriedly stopped the mount, pointed the whip at the knight and said, "What! What are you talking about?!"

Yang Dagon and the generals of the Liao Army who were next to him also looked sideways and were surprised. Brother Yeluxiu asked, but it wasn't because he didn't hear him clearly, but because he was surprised, as if he hadn't recovered.

The knight hurriedly said: "Jinyang has broken!"

Yeluxiu's words and deeds were resolute and straightforward, but then he said: "The news is true?"

The knight clearly said in Khitan: "It's true! First, the leader of the scout camp got the news from the Northern Han people, and then we arranged for our own people in Jinyang to confirm."

Brother Yeluxiu was stunned for an instant, looking back at the horse team that looked like a long dragon before and after, and looking at Yang Dagon and others, as if a little at a loss, so many Liao army cavalry came not far away, why did they come? He shook his head and said, "Unbelievable!"

The generals were also in an uproar for a while, their expressions were very shocked, and a general asked: "Is there an important person in Jinyang who opened the door to offer the city?"

The knight who came to report said: "No, it was a forceful attack to break the city. Zhou Jun used gunpowder to blast a gap, and build the soil into a mountain, and thus forcefully broke the city!"

After hearing this, Yang Dagon nodded solemnly, and said in deep thought: "The city offering is indeed unreliable. Daliao Tieqi two reinforcements and the response was timely. When Jinyang hoped to clear the siege, it was impossible for Jinyang to surrender as soon as possible. It's just called the dragon. The city’s important fortress, only half a month before and after being attacked, would it fall too soon?"

All the members of the Chinese army talked about it all at once. Yeluxiu finally began to accept this fact, and sat on the horse without saying a word.

Yang Dagon turned his head and said, "It can make the army temporarily stop marching."

Yeluxiu nodded with a grim face.

The generals babbled: "It's no wonder we, the capital of a country, the world's most important town, can't hold it for half a month. How can I be saved by my great Liao army for thousands of miles to help?" "I said the North Han country was unbearable. The war is only a hindrance, they are too useless!"

Yang Dagon frowned and said, "The North Han army is not as unbearable as you think. The southern countries, except for the Central Plains dynasty, the North Han army is the most powerful. Their soldiers have been fighting all the year round. A few years ago, they could threaten the forces of the Central Plains. The earlier generations of the Central Plains swept the world from Hedong! The problem of the Northern Han Dynasty was that the land was narrow and the land was barren, and the land was barren, which could not withstand long-term consumption; but the strong and majestic Jinyang City made up for this. You can still stick to it when you are at a disadvantage. Zhou Jun can go to Jinyang for half a month, and I really can’t believe it..."

He turned his head to look at Yeluxiu: "Guo Tiejiang, this person, will become a big trouble for Daliao!"

Brother Yeluxiu gritted his teeth and said after a moment: "I would really like to meet this person, to see if he has three heads and six arms!"

"Not at this time." Yang Dagon hurriedly persuaded, "Zhou's army claims to be hundreds of thousands, and there are 200,000 horses dispatched; our army is very disadvantaged against the main force of the Central Plains with a partial division."

At this time, the main force of the Liao army stopped on the main road one after another. It was just after noon. It was not a time for repairs. There was a lot of noise in the army. Many people sat on the ground, watching and inquiring about the situation. But for the ordinary Liao army cavalry, they didn't know what happened for a while. At first glance, they could see nothing except the mountain, which was a dense crowd of horses.

After a long time, news continued to circulate in the army, it turned out that Jinyang was breached!

The army was noisy for a while, and the voices were loud.

Even if they are part-time herdsmen and ordinary soldiers of cavalry, they don't know much about national affairs, but they are also familiar with Jinyang, a famous city in the world. Rumors abounded in the army. Some people said that Jinyang was captured within half a month; others said it was ten days, because it was a five-day truce (many people were specious about the matter).

People still don’t really appreciate the strength of Han's soldiers, so it all comes down to Guo Shao...In general, everyone has knowledge of what kind of ethnicity is, and there are many Han people even on the grassland, so Zhou Jun Han'er How strong it is, it is difficult for people to accept and believe; but if a certain "monster" is abnormal, some people believe it. Even on the grassland there are many legends of ghosts, gods and beasts, and of course there may be other places.

Even when many herders were young, their parents used the stories of monsters and ghosts to scare them, so that they would be obedient. Many people grew up in such legendary stories.

"Have you heard about the death of thousands of people in Zhuozhou a few years ago?" A Liao army man said solemnly, staring at him.

He didn't make a noise, and he didn't speak loudly. But the soldiers sitting cross-legged around immediately moved their places and moved their heads.

The man had a frightening expression on his face: "Those corpses later had no heads!"

Someone was curious and couldn't wait to ask: "Isn't the first level cut off to receive merit?"

The speaking man shook his head vigorously and said: "It is said that Zhou Jun remembers the merits without cutting the first rank (the military method that Guo Shao only decided at the beginning was still the first rank)." But this kind of thing is said in a serious tone from others. When it came out, it seemed very reasonable and credible. Everyone wanted to listen to the follow-up, so they were naturally unwilling to argue with them.

The man continued: "Na Guo Tiejian is a ghost, like to eat human brains!"

"Ah..." The empty-minded men were dumbfounded, but they listened very intently.

The man who spoke said: "He was originally a monster in the underground iron mine. He was huge, with three heads and six arms; the left three arms held three cast iron shields, and the right three arms held the blacksmith's hammer, knife, and spear. His body is full of iron armor, which is the same as a pangolin. After Guo Tiejiang emerges from the ground, he can become an ordinary person and deceive the world; but when he is provoked, he will show his original shape! It is in Zhuozhou. Someone saw him in his original form, killing and eating brains in the crowd! Invulnerable, if you hit him with a bow, arrow, knife and gun, it will break..."

The soldier in attendance asked, "What should I do? How to deal with the monster armor!"

The man said: "What should I do? Jinyang Jiancheng couldn't stop it. Tiesmith Guo turned into his original shape and walked up. He took the blacksmith's sledgehammer and knocked the wall over with a few hammers, otherwise it would take less than ten days. Conquer the important town..."

"Humph!" Suddenly a majestic voice came.

Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was Yang Dang, the deputy commander of the army, who was riding on the road, and the soldiers hurriedly stood up and stopped speaking. Yang Dagon raised his horse whip and pointed out angrily: "Nothing to spread rumors in the army, you don't know death!"

The man and the people around him showed fear.

Yang Dagon said coldly: "I miss you for the first time, and let it be forgive. If you dare to rumors, you will not be merciless!" He recalled and said loudly: "Zhongyuan Zhoujun has surrounded Jinyang for more than a month, and there are traitors in it. Surrendered, so the Northern Han Kingdom lost Jinyang early. From now on, it is strictly forbidden to spread rumors. Who of you has seen a monster with your own eyes? If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, it is just an error!"

Yang Dagon said to stop shooting horses and go to the temporary garrison of the Chinese army.

Brother Yeluxiu had found a stone and sat down on the side of the road, with the scabbard sticking to the ground, and sitting with his left hand supporting the big model. The surrounding department will guard the left and right.

"Jinyang was breached too quickly, and the army was shocked, and rumors have started." Yang Dagon bowed.

Brother Yeluxiu said: "Rumors are strictly prohibited under the military order."

"Yes." Yang Dagon bowed.

Brother Yeluxiu sternly said coldly: "I don't think I need to go south anymore now."

Yang Dagon hurriedly echoed: "What the coach said is extremely true. According to the imperial decree of the great man, our troops went south to solve the siege of Jinyang. We gathered people in Yinshan and Kiri went south without delay. Jinyang was besieged for half a month and lost the city. , It’s no wonder that we didn’t fight well... the intention to send troops has been lost, so there is no need to fight this battle.

Brother Yeluxiu said casually: "It's just a trip in vain, a little unwilling, and it's not easy to explain to the ministries."

Yang Dagon hurriedly persuaded: “As we discussed before, now it’s not a good fighter to go south to find the Zhou army to fight... Zhou's first victory has morale and confidence, and there are many soldiers and people in the country; I am a remote division of the Liao Dynasty. Besides, after the Zhou army captured Jinyang, there was a strong city to rely on, to advance, to attack, to retreat, and to defend; we had no barriers and were in a very disadvantaged situation."

Brother Yeluxiu is also very sensible. Although his face is not good, he seems to have made a decision. He said again: "The forward was ordered to retreat and changed to a rear army. The whole army crossed Xinkou, annexed to the north of Xinkou, and then let our own people garrison Xinkou. Then we sent scouts to investigate the situation again and make plans."

The general interrupted| said: "The commander is worried about the defection of the North Han army in Xinzhou?"

Yang Dagon replied with help: "It's just a matter of time! Jinyang is broken, and the entire court of the Northern Han Dynasty has fallen into enemy hands. There is no other place to rely on. Of course, surrendering to Zhou is the best way out... Don’t forget. Although the Northern Han Kingdom is an ally of the Liao Dynasty, this place is still Han’er’s territory. Those officials and generals who don’t vote for the same clan~www.readwn.com~ have any reason to vote for a foreigner Daliao? If they voted for Daliao, they still have to join Zhou. The army is the enemy and continues to fight; the Zhou army attacked Jinyang with the purpose of occupying the entire Hedong."

Everyone nodded and said yes.

Brother Yeluxiu slapped his thigh at this time, stood up abruptly, and said decisively: "Send the order, all the ministries retreated to the north of Xinkou! The forward returned to his division to guard Xinkou!"

"Yes." The generals bowed in prayer.

Yeluxiu went up a hillside and looked south. In the direction of the line of sight, there is only the tide of horses and horses in the mountains, and then the heavy mountains. You can't see the Zhou army blocking the people and horses in the south. Just before receiving the news of Jinyang City’s breaking, he still thought about how to defeat Shilingguan Li Chuyun’s Ministry on the battlefield; thinking about the other side waiting for work, whether he should fix it for two or three days after approaching... As a result, he had no plans. used.

With so many people in the army and planning a lot of ways, no one thought that Jinyang would be breached immediately! The battlefield is changing rapidly, and that's probably it.

"Guo Tiejiang..." Brother Yeluxiu whispered. r1058
