Xiao Qian said in a panic: "General, now Datong Mansion is in danger, you should immediately send someone to ask the two kings to come back for help!" All the civil servants and military generals also expressed panic and agreed.
Han Derang said confidently: "Don't worry! The Yanyun Army can't attack! The Yanyun Army's combat strength indeed exceeded my previous expectations. However, in today's battle on the east bank of the Yuhe River during the day, although our army's 30,000 infantry cavalry were basically The entire army was wiped out, but the Yanyun Army did not get much advantage. They killed 10,000 enemies and lost 7,000. Their losses were also very heavy. Although they have occupied Fengyi County now, they no longer have the ability to attack! In the words of the Han people, it means 'the final strength of a strong crossbow cannot penetrate Lu's silk'!"
After listening to Han Derang's analysis, all the civil and military officials could not help but feel that their previous worries had subsided a lot, and they had regained a lot of confidence.
Han Derang said: "I have sent someone to inform the two kings! It won't be long before the army comes back to help! We just need to strictly guard the city!" Turning to Zhanle, he said: "Zhanle, tell me to order the entire city to be under martial law , no one is allowed to walk on the street, otherwise he will be punished as a collaborator!" Zhan Le promised with clasped fists. Why is Zhanle here? It turned out that after the fall of Fengyi County, he, Zhang Chang and hundreds of cavalry escaped from the north gate, found a few fishing boats upstream, crossed the Yu River, and fled back to Datong Prefecture before evening. Handerang commended Zhang Chang, but did not reprimand Zhanle for his defeat, but took the responsibility on himself, which moved Zhanle extremely.
A herald rushed into the hall anxiously and reported urgently: "Oh no, General, Huairen has been defeated, and two million loads of grain and grass have been burned!"
Everyone was shocked. At this moment, firelight came into the hall. Everyone rushed out of the hall and looked in the direction of the fire. I saw that the night sky in the southwest was as red as fire! That was Huairen, the Jin Army's main grain and grass transshipment base, where all the grain and grass for the southern invading army was! Handerang's eyes widened and he shouted in disbelief: "How is this possible? Is this so possible? Huairen has ten thousand cavalry guards, how is it possible?!" Zhanle asked: "General, I am leading the cavalry to rescue?" "
Han Derang said angrily: "It's too late now!" Soon after, the remaining defeated generals guarding Huairen fled into Datong Mansion one after another, including the general guarding Huairen, Mutuo. Mu Tuo knelt down in the hall, looking ashamed. His body was covered with scars, including several arrow wounds. The crossbow arrows were still stuck in his body and had not been removed. There were also several gunshot wounds. Although they had been simply bandaged, blood was still leaking out. His fish scale armor was in tatters and his helmet was in pieces. He has disappeared without a trace, his hair is a mess, and there is a bloody cut on his face. This guy really escaped with his life!
Handrang stood up and said angrily: "There are ten thousand cavalry guards, and the opponent only has two thousand cavalry. You are so completely defeated!" He kicked Mu Tuo over. Mu Tuo quickly got up and knelt again. Handerang said solemnly: "If you can tell me a reason, I will spare your life. Otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind! Say it!"
Mu Tuo swallowed his saliva, "Those Yanyun cavalry were as fast as lightning. Before we could react, they broke into the camp! Those people used a special steel crossbow that fired very fast. At the same time, they used a The long knives I have never seen before are extremely sharp! Their attacks are as fierce as the waves, as fast as the wolves, and the sharpness of the soldiers is so strong that they have never been seen in Daliao, let alone other countries! …”
Handerang frowned, and the others began to discuss in low voices. "What action did you take at that time?" Handerang asked. "As soon as the general received the alarm, he immediately gathered his troops. But as soon as he started to gather, those terrible cavalry rushed in and slashed with their swords. We were caught off guard and suffered numerous casualties! After that, although the general tried to organize a counterattack several times, the opponent's The speed was too fast and the attacks were too sharp. The generals who had managed to assemble several times were crushed to pieces before they could counterattack! Finally, in the end, the general could only lead a part of his troops to break out and leave! "Then he kowtowed and said, "The general has abandoned Huairen and severely damaged the power of our great Jin government. Please punish me, general!"
Handerang looked thoughtful. Daru clasped his fists and said: "General, although the consequences of Huairen's defeat were serious, General Mutuo cannot be entirely blamed! In that case, no one would have done better! I'm afraid no one would have done better! I have long said that the black-armored cavalry is extraordinary, and it can be said to be unparalleled in every aspect! It is very normal to lose to such an opponent!"
Handerang frowned and murmured: "I heard King Xiao talk about such a cavalry unit before, but I didn't take it to heart at the time. I didn't expect that there really was such a terrifying cavalry unit in the Yanyun Army! I was careless!" Look! He glanced at Mu Tuo who was still kneeling on the ground and said, "This battle is not your fault. I will go and apologize to Your Majesty. You get up."
Mu Tuo was so moved that he thanked him and stood up. Handerang glanced at the horrific injuries on Mu Tuo's body and asked, "Who injured you like this?"
There was fear in the eyes of Mu Tuo, a Liao warrior who feared neither heaven nor earth, "He is an extremely heroic Han general! This man is very brave. He picked more than a dozen of my generals in succession and it was as if they were in an uninhabited territory! In the end, the general and He fought with him and was seriously injured in less than ten rounds. If his own soldiers had not fought desperately to rescue him, the general would not have been able to come back!"
Handerang was very shocked, because Mu Tuo was definitely considered a powerful warrior in the Kingdom of Jin, but he could not survive even ten rounds in the opponent's hands? ! "What's his name?"
"Litian!" At this time, Duan Zhixian was leading the Xuanjia Army to continue southward, advancing furiously. Xiao Lu, the governor of Yingzhou, saw that Xuanjia's army only had less than 2,000 men, so he led 10,000 soldiers out of the city to fight. Unexpectedly, before they could gain a firm foothold, the opponent came in like a terrifying dark cloud. It broke through the Liao army's defense line in an instant, trampled on it with iron hooves, and the Liao army was defeated like a mountain! Duan Zhixian killed Xiao Lu in the middle of thousands of troops and horses, and then led the Xuanjia Army to chase the defeated troops and rush into Yingzhou. A fire burned Yingzhou City, and then the army pointed at Mayi. Ma Tun, the general guarding Ma Yi, was a coward and saved Ma Yi regardless of going into battle.
Seeing that there was no chance to take advantage of him, Duan Zhixian turned to attack Yanmen Pass. He almost broke through the defense line and went south to Guanzhong. Fortunately, at the critical moment, the Liao army defender set fire to the houses in Guanzhong. Duan Zhixian had no choice but to lead the Xuanjia Army to withdraw from Yanmen Pass and return to Datong Mansion.
Yang Peng stood on the west wall of Fengyi County, looking at the towering Datong Mansion on the other side, frowning slightly. Han Bing climbed up the city wall, ran behind Yang Peng, clasped his fists and said, "General, all the wounded soldiers have been transported away!"
Yang Peng nodded, looked at Datong Mansion on the other side and murmured: "We have done everything we can do, now it depends on the court itself! What a pity, if I have an army of 100,000, Datong Mansion is already in my pocket Something!" Han Bing looked at Yang Peng's back and suddenly felt that this man was as tall as a mountain peak. Her heart couldn't help but tremble. Suddenly he came back to his senses, showing an annoyed look, and secretly cursed himself.
Yang Qi and Yang Erya came hand in hand. Yang Qi cupped his fists towards Yang Peng and said, "Brother, the scouts are here to report that the main 30,000 forwards of the Liao Army have passed Yanmen Pass." Yang Peng smiled and said, "They are quite fast. !" Turn around. Seeing three beautiful female generals standing in front of me, I couldn't help but be stunned. After coming back to his senses, he ordered: "Send the order to the whole army. The infantry, heavy armor and cavalry will withdraw first, and the Xuanjia army and light cavalry will retreat!" The three female generals clasped their fists together and agreed.
At night, the Yanyun Army quietly evacuated Fengyi County, but the flags on top of the city were not removed, and the Yanyun Army did not alarm the people in the city. It was not until the next morning that the common people discovered to their surprise that none of the tens of thousands of Yanyun troops had left.
At noon, Han Derang received the report that Yan Yun's army had withdrawn. How could Handerang watch Yan Yun's army retreat safely after suffering such a big loss, so he personally commanded the cavalry to pursue him. However, they were ambushed by the Xuanjia Army and Yanyun Light Cavalry on Qingpo east of Baishan Mountain. They were severely defeated. Only two or three thousand of the ten thousand troops fled back to Datong Prefecture.
One day later, the main force of the Liao Army's 30,000 forward cavalry finally arrived at Datong Mansion, and Handerang immediately led the 30,000 forwards in pursuit. But at this time, Yan Yun's army had retreated into Fengsheng Prefecture. By the time the Liao army arrived at Fengsheng Prefecture, Yan Yun's army had already retreated into Juyong Pass.
Handerang led 30,000 war cavalry and rushed to the Juyong Pass. Looking at the waiting pass in front of him, he felt that there was nothing to do. He was so depressed that he could only retreat to Datong Mansion. At this time, the main force of hundreds of thousands of Liao troops led by Ye Qi Xiu Ge Ye Qi Guanyin had withdrawn.
Handerang came to Yegan Guanyin and Brother Yeganxiu, knelt down and apologized, asked for sanctions, and took all the blame for the defeat of the generals on himself. The generals were very moved and couldn't help but think of dying in return.
Brother Ye Qianxiu asked angrily: "What is going on? There are many soldiers and horses left behind on Xijing Road, a total of one hundred thousand people. How could they be defeated so miserably? Could it be that the Yanyun Army mobilized a large army to attack ?”
"The Yanyun Army only dispatched more than 50,000 troops, but the Yanyun Army is really different from other enemies we have encountered before. It is fierce and cunning!" Han Derang then told what happened. Brother Yegan Guanyin and Brother Yeganxiu were silent for a moment, and Brother Yeganxiu said angrily: "It's that mysterious cavalry again! When our army destroyed Liao before, we almost failed because of them, but we didn't expect it would be them again this time!"
"That cavalry comes and goes like wind, attacks like thunder, is extremely well-equipped, and attacks extremely sharply! Often our troops are rushed to pieces before they can react! The reason why this time it almost caused a catastrophe, To a large extent, it is because I was careless about this cavalry! Daru had already reminded me, but he did not pay enough attention to me, causing Huairen's food and grass to be burned! Please punish me for the crime I deserve!" Generals One after another came out to plead for mercy, vying to take the responsibility on themselves.
Ye Qi Guanyin repelled all the generals and only punished Han Derang. This can be regarded as fulfilling his wish.
His eyes turned to Juyongguan. Yanyun's army retreated into Guanzhong and stationed on the spot to rest and recuperate. Yang Peng did not return to Yanjing immediately and stayed in Juyong Pass for the time being. Han Bing had just received an urgent message from Tokyo, so he hurried to the big tent. However, the big tent was empty, and Yang Peng didn't know where he had gone. Han Bing immediately left the tent, called Yin Sha at the door and asked, "Where is the general?"
The secret guard pointed to the creek outside the military camp that shone silver in the moonlight and said, "The general seems to have gone over there." Han Bing immediately rushed over there.
Walking on the grass beside the stream, I looked around and saw no one. Suddenly, the faint sound of human voices came from behind a cluster of pine trees at the stream bay ahead. Han Bing thought Yang Peng was behind him and galloped towards him. Enter the pine forest and come to the other edge. Suddenly she saw a scene that made her blood boil. Under the moonlight, in the stream, two naked people were hugging each other and doing intense exercises. They were Yang Peng and Yang Erya. Yang Erya has completely forgotten her feelings, her pink legs and jade arms are tightly wrapped around Yang Peng, her white jade-like skin disappears and appears in the water, her extraordinarily slender breasts are particularly eye-catching, and her red lips A suppressed moan came out.
Han Bing reacted and was at a loss. He hurriedly turned his horse and ran towards the military camp. Chai Yonghui seemed to hear the sound of horse hooves in a daze, and wanted to ask questions, but the happy feeling came one after another, and he forgot about the matter.
About half an hour later, Yang Peng returned to the tent on horseback and hugged Yang Erya, who had turned into a pool of spring water. Yang Peng took Yang Erya down, walked into the tent, put her on the marching couch aside, kissed her red lips, and said with a smile: "You go to bed first, I want to read the official documents!" Yang Peng Erya nodded obediently. Yang Peng smiled, covered her with a quilt, turned around, walked to the desk and sat down.
Yang Erya lay on his side on the bed and looked at Yang Peng who was walking towards the desk, showing a happy smile, and then closed his eyes. In the early morning of Yuri, Han Bing walked in quickly, greeted Yang Peng with clasped fists, and then met Yang Qi. He immediately reported to Yang Peng: "General, everyone is ready!" Yang Peng temporarily put these things behind him. , stood up and said to Yang Qi watching him: "I'm going." Yang Qi nodded. Yang Peng and Han Bing quickly left the hall.
A moment later, Yang Peng, dressed in military uniform, rode out of the city surrounded by soldiers. At this time, the Zhonghun Hall on the hill outside the city stood majestically, facing the rising sun and emitting thousands of rays of light, which was extremely brilliant; more than ten thousand soldiers and horses were arrayed under the hill, with swords and guns like forests, and military formations like mountains. There was a chilling atmosphere, and both sides The flying-winged tiger war flag sounded fiercely in the wind.
Many people climbed up the city wall or looked out of the taverns and teahouses outside the city. When they saw the huge and solemn lineup, they couldn't help but marvel. "Oh, what are you doing? What a grand spectacle!" A middle-aged man exclaimed in shock. A young man next to him said angrily: "You don't know this? Today the general is going to welcome the remains of the fallen soldiers into the Loyal Soul Hall for enshrinement! All the troops and civil and military officials from Yanjing have gone!"
The middle-aged man said in disbelief: "It's true! From ancient times to the present, who cares about the life and death of sergeants! It would be nice to give him some pension!"
"When I hear what you say, I know it's from outside. This is different here! If someone in your family dies in the war, not only will there be a pension, but the government will also take care of your elderly wife and children, and the children can enter the school to study for free. Now, let the souls of the fallen soldiers ascend directly to heaven to receive the respect and worship of all people!"
The middle-aged man looked at the glorious palace that stood on the top of the mountain and radiated thousands of rays of light like a heavenly palace. He couldn't help but murmured: "Such glory is really enviable! If only I could be buried in it after my death. "!" The people around laughed, and someone joked: "Uncle, you are too old to be a soldier! In the next life!" The middle-aged man was very unfair and glared: "Don't underestimate me, like you Even if there are several young people like him together, I won't take him seriously!" Everyone sneered and thought he was just bragging.
Suddenly, someone pointed into the distance and shouted: "Look!" Everyone looked around and saw many black shadows appearing on the skyline. Gradually they got closer, and it turned out to be a majestic and imposing heavy armored cavalry team, using the Yanyun Army's double-winged flying tiger war flag to clear the way, escorting the ashes of the fallen soldiers slowly toward the Loyal Soul Hall. Everyone couldn't help but stand in awe when they saw this scene.
Soon after, a scene that shocked all the people appeared. When the team transporting ashes arrived at the foot of Zhonghun Hall, the war drums sounded loudly. Under the leadership of the general, tens of thousands of soldiers and civil and military officials knelt down to welcome Zhonghun! What an honor this is! The people were completely shocked! Many people wish they were one of those fallen soldiers! An old man murmured excitedly with tears in his eyes: "Life only lasts a few decades. If you can enjoy such honor, what's the point of fearing even if you die on the battlefield?!"
Immediately, the ashes of the fallen soldiers were sent to the Loyal Soul Hall. After worship, the ceremony ended.
Then the Zhonghun Hall was opened to the public, and people rushed to go to the Zhonghun Hall. A few people were in a reverent mood, but most people were out of curiosity.
People came to the foot of the mountain and looked up at the Zhonghun Hall. The Loyal Soul Hall is located on the top of a mountain. It is majestic and majestic, as if heaven is looking down on the world. Everyone can't help but have the urge to worship. Climbing up the 900 steps step by step, the human soul is constantly being baptized. When they arrived at the main hall, under the illumination of countless ever-burning lamps, two huge tablets came into view. One was the "Spirit of the Fallen Soldiers in the Battle of Yanyun" and the other was "The Spirit of the Fallen Soldiers in the Battle of Datong". ’, with the blood-stained military flags guarded on both sides, when the people came here, they couldn’t help being shocked in their hearts, and they couldn’t help but kneel down.
The Loyal Soul Hall is one of the important measures taken by Yang Peng to eliminate the weak Chinese thought that has been entrenched in the national soul since Confucianism came to power.
The spirit represented by the Loyal Soul Hall quickly penetrated into the souls of the people in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. Countless young people and even middle-aged and elderly people asked to join the army; but for literati, the society's attitude became more and more dismissive, and even Despised. In such an atmosphere, many scholars joined the army. However, those Confucian scholars who already had strong opinions on Yang Peng hated Yang Peng and this society even more. They secretly compared Yang Peng to Qin Shihuang and said that what he is doing now, It is comparable to the burning of books and the entrapment of scholars back then. Confucian scholars frequently went to the capital to accuse Yang Peng, but now the Song court officials had no time to pay attention to them.
As the saying goes, in any 'revolution', if internal strength is insufficient, external strength must be relied upon, so these proud men turned their minds to the Liao people. Chen Xiao was walking by the lake in the backyard, thinking about the current situation. Chen Xiao hoped to break the situation, but the power of the Liao people was too strong, and he seemed to be unable to do anything. Suddenly, a chuckle came from the courtyard in front.
Yang Peng retracted his thoughts, stopped, and followed the sound. He saw Yang Jiumei and Yang Qi sitting in the yard of Yang Jiumei and talking behind the moon cave window. The two beautiful faces have different styles, which is really pleasing to the eye! Yang Peng temporarily put those annoying things behind him and walked over there.
When they came to the yard, Yang Jiumei and Yang Qi were no longer there. They seemed to have gone back to their rooms.
Yang Peng walked to the door and raised his hand to knock on the door. At this moment, the voices of two women came from the door. Yang Qi said in a very shy tone: "Jiumei, this kind of clothes is really embarrassing!" Jiumei smiled and said: "I don't let you wear it outside. If you have a lover you like in the future, you can wear it for your lover. Look, he will definitely love you to death! Come on, put it on and let me see."
Yang Peng was stunned and couldn't help but swallowed. I looked around and saw no one, so I gently turned to the back of the room. He opened the window a crack and peeked inside, almost getting a nosebleed. At this time, Yang Qi was lying with her upper body facing away from him, her skin was as smooth as jade, her waist was as soft as a willow, and there was a small butterfly-shaped bright red birthmark on her left shoulder, exuding a strange allure.
"Jiu Mei, how are you wearing this?" Yang Qi asked at a loss, holding a small piece of clothing that looked like a bra. Jiumei took it and said, "Turn around and I'll help you put it on!" Yang Qi turned around as instructed. Yang Peng saw her front and hurriedly shrank her body under the window sill. The alluring sight I had just glimpsed echoed in my mind. My nose felt hot and I couldn't help but reach out and touch it. My nosebleed!
"Jiu Mei, that window is not closed properly!" Yang Qi said suddenly. "Strange thing! I remember it was closed clearly!" Jiumei's voice came, and at the same time there were footsteps.
Yang Jiumei walked to the window and was about to close it, but she suddenly found her eldest brother hiding underneath. Her eyes widened immediately, looking very surprised. Yang Peng raised his middle finger towards her, signaling her to keep quiet. Yang Jiumei pursed her lips and smiled, turning pale as if Yang Peng was angry.
"Jiu Mei, is there any problem?" Yang Qi asked loudly. Jiumei smiled and said: "It's nothing, it's just a sneaky cat! Hehe, but he didn't succeed!" Then she closed the window. Yang Peng stood up again and was about to push the window open and continue to peek. Unexpectedly, the window was bolted from the inside and could not be pushed open! Yang Peng knew that Jiumei had done it on purpose, and he was so angry that he vowed to teach this woman a lesson tonight for daring to tease her husband!
Yang Peng turned to the front again, knocked on the door, and said loudly: "Jiu Mei, are you there? I'm coming in." Qiong Ying's panicked voice immediately came from inside: "Wait a minute!" Yang Peng said deliberately; "Eighth Sister is here too. What are you doing? Why are you keeping the door closed?"
After a while, the door opened, and Yang Jiumei appeared in front of Yang Peng and rolled her eyes at him angrily. Yang Peng put his head next to Yang Jiumei's ear and whispered viciously: "Let's see how I deal with you tonight!" Yang Jiumei's heart trembled.
Yang Peng pretended to walk into the room and couldn't help but look at the screen on the left. It happened that Yang Qi turned around the screen and came out with a blushing face. At this moment, Yang Qi had put on her armor, which completely covered her beautiful body like a jade tree and a beautiful flower. However, Yang Peng couldn't help but think of the beautiful scene that he had glimpsed just now. His nose felt hot and he almost started to bleed again. coming.
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
