"Boss, when are we going to wait? We have been hiding in this ghost place for three whole days. The brothers are already a little impatient." In the dense woods, an unusually tough young man complained to his side.
A young man in military uniform said. After retreating from the battlefield to his hometown of Qingyun County that day, the young man in military uniform took them here directly, and then hid for three full days. Perhaps he was still immersed in the hundreds of thousands of people in Qingyun County.
During the tragedy of being massacred, for three whole days, the young man in military uniform said nothing except giving orders to himself and others to wait. Such uninformed waiting made the tough young man very puzzled. He was already rough.
He was straightforward and under the instigation of his brothers, relying on the fact that he was a playmate who grew up with his lord, he came here specifically to mutter.
"Xinke, tell them, if they still want to avenge the more than 100,000 dead people, then they'd better be honest and stay with me. As for how long they have to wait, that's my business." The young man in military uniform said coldly.
He said, with an unquestionable firmness in his tone. Looking at his firm expression, Xinji opened his mouth, but in the end said nothing. Instead, he turned his gaze to the delicate woman in armor next to the young man in military uniform.
.
"I have been waiting for the letter for three days, and it is not less than this time and a half. Feng Jing, who went to inquire about the news, has not come back yet, and we still don't know the other party's arrangements. If we go there rashly, the whole army will be killed by accident.
Destroyed. Not to mention avenging our fathers and fellow villagers, whether we can leave is another question." The delicate woman explained patiently. Although she was in the military, the woman still exuded an elegant aura.
.After hearing what the woman said, Xinke wanted to say something more, but finally kept his mouth shut.
At this moment, a sweaty young man and a middle-aged man dressed as a Confucian scholar hurriedly came to the young man in military uniform. Although both of them were dusty, their faces were still filled with a sense of depression.
Constantly excited.
"Boss, I'm back. This is Mr. Luo Xiang." The young man pointed to the Confucian scholar beside him and said excitedly: "Mr. Luo Xiang was originally an official in Dingzhou City. On the day when Dingzhou City was destroyed, Luo
Mr. Xiang neither fled south to Tiandu Shengjing nor surrendered to the enemy. Instead, he took advantage of the geographical advantage and hid in Dingzhou City, and then figured out the enemy's defense in the city. I went there this time, too.
I met Mr. by chance."
The young man in uniform raised his eyebrows. If what he said was true, then this person was a rare talent, but he didn't know if he was a craftsman sent by the enemy. After carefully looking at the Confucian scholar in front of him, the young man in military uniform opened his mouth and said
: "Someone heard that when the imperial army retreated south, the defenders of Dingzhou City and many officials from the imperial court followed them. They thought that the enemy army was powerful and the barbarians were murderous. Why did you take such a big risk to stay in Dingzhou?
?”
Luo Xiang smiled disapprovingly. He knew that his actions were indeed a bit unbelievable, and he expected the other party to ask this question. If the other party asked him about the situation in the city without even considering this, then
He actually doubted whether it was worth taking the risk to come and serve: "What the general said is absolutely true, but as an official of the imperial court, it is a shame to be unable to protect the country and the people. If you abandon the city and flee in the face of a national crisis, how can you face the government?"
The people of Qingfeng here? Although this person is just a small official, his desire to serve the country is still as good as anyone else. The reason why he has stayed in the city is so that one day the imperial army can go north and do his part."
The young man in military uniform was unmoved and continued to ask: "The Hu people have occupied Dingzhou for more than ten days. How did you avoid the enemy's massacre and arrests?"
Luo Xiang smiled again and said with some pride: "For the Hu people, although they are temporarily powerful, they are passers-by in Dingzhou after all. Only when someone is born and raised here is he truly a citizen of Dingzhou."
There are half a million residents in the city, which is even better than Yanzhou, the capital of the Hetao. It is the real first state in the Hetao. Someone is originally from Dingzhou and has been an official in the city for more than ten years. If he wants to stay in the city
Finding a place to stay is not difficult.”
The young man in military uniform still had a pale face. Although what the other party said was accurate, if the other party was indeed a trick of the enemy, then these words should have been prepared for a long time. After a pause, he continued to ask: "What is Dingzhou doing now?"
The city is occupied by barbarians and it is extremely complicated to get in and out of the city. I wonder how you got out safely?"
Luo Xiang's expression became solemn. The young man in military uniform understood this and quickly retreated, leaving only Xin Ke Fengjing and the woman in military uniform. After looking around and seeing nothing unusual, Luo Xiang lowered his voice and said: "General Qi,
It’s not that someone is being too cautious, it’s that this matter is so important that someone has to be cautious.”
The young man in military uniform obviously knew that it was time to get to the point, so he cheered up and said in a low voice: "Sir, it doesn't matter. These three people are all someone's confidants, and there is absolutely no chance of the news leaking."
"A few days ago, although many officials in the city left as the imperial army moved south, there were also many loyal people who stayed, including He Fu, the original guard of the east gate of Dingzhou City. This man has deep
He was good at strategy and political affairs, and he was extremely loyal. However, he was demoted to guard the east gate because he was too upright. After the Hu people entered the city, at someone's suggestion, he was the first to surrender to the enemy. In recognition of his
Because of his great achievements, the Hu people specifically allowed him to continue serving as the guard of the North Gate City. However, due to the overwhelming power of the Hu people, he only had less than 500 soldiers under his command. Although these were the elites he had trained for many years, they faced a superior enemy force.
, he had no choice but to endure it for the time being. The fact that a certain person and General Fengjing were able to leave the city smoothly was actually because of his help."
"Oh? Since this guard general is extremely loyal, why would he follow your husband's advice and surrender to the enemy first?" The young man in military uniform looked excited. If this person is really what Luo Xiang said, then there is great hope that this will happen.
But if this was a trap, his entire army was in danger of being destroyed. However, considering that he had been dormant here for three whole days, except for Feng Jing to go out to inquire about the news, the rest of the people never left here at all.
Moreover, the enemy would never have thought that there was an army like his own outside Dingzhou City, so the possibility of the enemy sending a detailed attack was extremely small. And to say the least, even if the enemy knew that he was hiding here, he would be in trouble.
A person's personality should be wiped out by direct force. After hearing what Luo Xiang said was extremely sincere, the young man in military uniform had already believed it. But the matter was so important that he had to make sure.
"Because I am his brother-in-law. His sister He is someone's concubine." Luo Xiang said with a smile.
The young man in military uniform nodded. If this is the case, then it should be completely true. So he cupped his hands and said respectfully: "A certain Haotian, who was originally a Qianqi garrison in Qingyun County, Dingzhou, was rude just now.
Please forgive me, sir."
"Could the general be Hao Qianqi, the son of Qingyun County Magistrate Hao Changqi, who is known as a talented young man with both civil and military talents?" Luo Xiang asked in surprise.
"That's exactly that person. It's just that this person with both civil and military skills is really unworthy." Haotian quickly returned the courtesy and said.
"Haha, someone said who has such courage and courage, and dares to attack the 30,000 enemy troops guarding the Dingzhou city with a thousand cavalry. It turns out that he is a very tiger. By the way, Dingzhou city was destroyed, Qingyun
The county is not immune. I wonder what the situation is now? I'm afraid General Hao still doesn't know that there is a person who has a close relationship with his father, just because one is in the city and the other is in Qingyun, so it is difficult to meet. Now that I count, I haven't seen him for several years.
Is he dead?" Luo Xiang touched the long beard under his forehead and said with a smile.
"It turns out to be Uncle Shi. To be honest with Uncle Shi, my father set fire to himself on the day the city of Dingzhou was destroyed. When my nephew rushed back, my father was already gone, and most of Qingyun's 100,000 fellow villagers were also slaughtered. So.
Although he knew that this was an attempt to kill a stone, he still decided to attack Dingzhou to avenge my father and one hundred thousand elders." Haotian's eyes turned red and he said sadly. Because his mother died in childbirth, his father grieved and later continued his marriage without renewing his marriage.
He just took his cousin Qin Tianyi, whose parents also died, to Qingyun and raised them both. Therefore, Haotian has special respect for his father. And he deeply misses his mother who died young.
Luo Xiang's expression was startled, and his face was stiff for a long time. There was a sadness on his face, and his eyes were empty for a while. He slowly closed his eyes. After a long time, he sighed: "My nephew, please give me my condolences. I am very good at sacrificing my life for the people."
, it can be regarded as a well-deserved death. Alas, ever since the death of Fairy Qin, he has been determined to die. In this way, his wish can be regarded as fulfilled. The most important thing at the moment is how to conquer Dingzhou and conquer Qu.
Millions of people in the Hetao died to take revenge. By the way, nephew, didn’t you lead the army northward to cooperate with the battle on the order of Lord Dingbeihou Zhang? Why did you appear here? "
When Qingfeng's army marched north, Dingbei Marquis Zhang Mingjing ordered the garrison troops from the six provinces of Hetao to accompany him to the north to fight together. Haotian's elite thousand cavalry were naturally no exception. However, due to the fierce intrigues within the Northern Expedition Army at that time, the national counselor Pang
Ye had a headache, so he took advantage of the situation and used Haotian's thousands of cavalrymen who were familiar with the location as scouts and distributed them on the westernmost defense line of the river. Because of this, Haotian happened to escape the Rouran cavalry that time.
Night attack. After learning that the army was defeated and faced with the murderous coalition of millions of aliens, Haotian wisely took advantage of the geographical location and traveled by day and night to escape the enemy's encirclement and suppression, and successfully returned to Qingyun, Dingzhou, southwest of Hetao.
.But at this time, the foreign coalition forces had swept across the entire Hetao and occupied Dingzhou City. Except for a few strong and strong people in Qingyun County, the remaining 100,000 people either fled everywhere or died from the enemy.
Under the army's butcher's knife. Facing the Qingyun that had become ruins, Haotian, the disciples of Qianqingyun, were neither willing to go south to the Yinfeng Castle in such a dejected manner, nor were they willing to let go of those who slaughtered their fathers, fellow villagers and
The alien executioner of his relatives. So, after a brief period of pain, Haotian resolutely took his thousand fine horses to the dense forest outside Dingzhou City. He hoped to avenge his hometown elders. No matter what happened, he would not
You can die on the battlefield and be worthy of your title as a soldier.
After calming down his emotions, Haotian said: "Uncle Shi, my nephew was still worried about how to enter the city just now, but with the help of Uncle Shi and General He, all this will be no longer a problem. It's just my nephew's help.
There are only these one thousand cavalry, and there are at least two foreign troops of ten thousand people in Dingzhou City. Even if something unexpected happens, I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve full success."
"Are you trying to compare yourself to someone? Although my nephew only has a thousand cavalry, he is charged with a bloody feud. A wise soldier will win. As long as the soldiers work together and are properly arranged, it is easy to defeat ten with one. And it is just a surprise attack, and the enemy will win."
After the army occupied Dingzhou, military discipline has been extremely loose. As long as things happen unexpectedly, it is not difficult to defeat the enemy." Luo Xiang said with a smile.
"Uncle Luo Shi, I heard that in the past few days, the general of Dingzhou has captured many soldiers who were defeated by the Northern Expeditionary Army. They have all been imprisoned in Dingzhou City and are preparing to be escorted back to the country as slaves. I wonder if this is the case?"
The woman in military uniform suddenly interrupted and said.
Looking at Qin Tianyi, who was dressed in military uniform, Luo Xiang's expression suddenly became very excited, and even his lips were trembling. But within a moment, a deep sadness appeared in his eyes.
Even the circles under his eyes were a little moist. After taking a deep breath to stabilize his mind, Luo Xiang said, "Who is this girl?"
"This is my nephew's cousin Qin Tianyi, who is also my nephew's fiancée. The original plan was to get married this year, but because my father died in the country, it was temporarily postponed." Haotian said quickly, and then pointed to the letter engraved beside him.
Feng Jing two people: "These two are my nephew's family generals, Feng Jing and Xin Ke. They are also brothers who are worshiped by God."
"There are no weak soldiers under a strong general. With Hao Shi's nephew having such a general, why worry about big things happening?" Luo Xiang touched Sandu's long beard and said with a smile, but his eyes were focused on Tianyi.
"Uncle Luo Shi, is there anything wrong with the words of God's will?" Haotian was very smart. Seeing Luo Xiang's expression, he asked curiously,
"It's not inappropriate, but what Miss Tianyi said is the key to success or failure this time." Luo Xiang nodded and said.
"Uncle Shi, thank you. God's will is just a casual comment." God's will said with a smile.
"Miss Tianyi is too modest. Nephew Hao Shi, the key to success or failure this time is indeed these tens of thousands of prisoners of war." Luo Xiang shook his head and said firmly: "Even if our army adds He Fu's five hundred soldiers, it will only be one
There are 1,500 people, and there are 30,000 Rouran soldiers in Dingzhou city. If we just want to defeat this enemy army, if something happens suddenly and we have proper arrangements, it should be no problem. But if the nephew wants to occupy Dingzhou
, if we want to annihilate all the enemy forces, this manpower is still far from enough."
"Uncle Shi means that we can prey on these prisoners of war?" Haotian said with enlightenment.
"Yes, these prisoners of war are the elite of the Northern Expeditionary Army. Although they were defeated and captured, there is a reason for the incident. I think they must be holding back a lot of resentment in their hearts. If we can send a surprise force to rescue them after we enter the city, they will
It will inevitably unleash superhuman fighting power." Luo Xiang said with a smile.
"What Uncle Shi said is absolutely true. Then please ask Uncle Shi to arrange tonight's battle." Haotian was convinced after hearing this, so he bowed and said.
"Hao Shi's nephew is a genius, and he has a good wife like Miss Tianyi by his side. Why should I, a rotten old man who talks about military affairs on paper, take command? I think my nephew has already made plans in his mind in the next life, right?" Luo Xiang said noncommittally.
Haotian smiled slightly and did not shirk, so he took advantage of the situation and said: "Then my nephew will make his own decisions. But before that, I would like to ask Uncle Shi to introduce the distribution location and strength of the enemy troops in the city."
