It rained today. The big raindrops hit the mud, and were stepped on by the military boots whose original color could not be seen. A defeated army flag was tilted. In such weather, it is deep and shallow.
Moving forward step by step... gradually approaching Huyang Pass. This pass is located in Huiming Prefecture. It has always been a famous pass in the eastern part of the Southern Region. Later, due to the expansion of the Xia Kingdom's territory, Huiming Prefecture was no longer a border prefecture.
The significance of Huyang Pass was also greatly lost, and it was gradually depleted. However, with the beginning of the Qi-Xia War, it was taken seriously again. The city walls were reinforced, ordnance increased, the formation was strengthened, and troops were added many times...especially
After the war broke out in Linwu Prefecture, the garrison here has increased to 30,000, and they are all the elites of Huiming Prefecture's army! Huiming Prefecture is a long and narrow terrain, and Huyang Pass is at the neck. The pass is stationed here.
He was born in the famous Chu family of Daxia, and was named Chu Shuo, a peak powerhouse in the outer building. It is said that there is only a thin line between him and the gods. He is of the same generation as the head of the Chu family, Chu Cang. This year is four years old.
Three times out of ten, when the energy and body are at their peak, there is still enough opportunity to attack Shenlin. With elite soldiers and generals, natural dangers and city defenses, Huyang Pass is not only as stable as a mountain, it is also indestructible.
The approaching of such a defeated army in the rain curtain was detected early by the sentries on the tower. Bang~! The gong to warn the enemy has been sounded. The sound echoed through the city. On the tower, the soldiers were holding swords and swords.
In the rain, the killing was at its peak. The defensive array at Huyang Pass had been activated at full efficiency five days ago. Hu said that he had already mobilized all the pass officers and vowed not to send a single soldier across the border.
He even placed a thin coffin in front of the gate of the general's house, indicating that the day he broke through the barrier would be the time of his death. If the guard general died after breaking through the barrier, he would not be honored and would only deserve a thin burial. A general is a brave soldier.
Chu said that he was born in a famous family and hoped that the gods would come so he would not hesitate to die. The entire Huyang Pass was united and vowed to live and die with Guancheng. Today, those who can retreat from the direction of Linwu Mansion have formed an organized army.
There is only the Fengjie Prefecture army disguised as the Victory Battalion. All the reinforcements passing through Ximing City have been swallowed up by that city. Of course, maybe they are in a new fierce battle now, but they have already fought with the Victory Battalion at this time.
It's irrelevant. It's close. Huyang Pass in the rain is like a giant beast with stone skin and steel body, indifferently devouring everything, including the rain in the sky. This is a heavily guarded and dangerous pass, and the Xia Kingdom is indeed determined to fight land by land.
! In the rain curtain, Chong Xuansheng made such a judgment. It was not surprising. Regarding the news about Huyang Pass and what the gatekeeper said about it, he had already learned it from the mouths of the prisoners. "Where did it come from?
"On the city tower, someone was cheering for Dao Yuan and shouting questions. People here in Xia Guoming's Mansion are accustomed to omitting the subject when speaking. Chong Xuan Sheng covered his forehead with his fat palm to shield himself from the rain, and opened his small eyes.
He looked hard at the top of the city tower, and he looked indescribably embarrassed! "Brothers on the top of the city tower! We are one of our own!" At this time, he had already switched to the accent of Fengli Mansion, and shouted in the rain: "We are our own people!"
The reinforcements sent by Li to Linwu were blocked by the Qi army in Ximing City. The brothers suffered heavy casualties and were defeated all the way... I gathered several friendly troops. When we set off, there were nearly ten thousand people, but now there were only three thousand left!
"
The sad voice is full of emotions, which really makes the listeners cry, and makes those who see it sad: "The road back to Fengli has been blocked, and we have to flee elsewhere. So we came here and took a detour to go home! Please also ask Huyangguan
Brothers, please do me a favor!" This Fenglifu army indeed looks miserable. Not only are their flags crooked and their clothes wet, but their weapons are also missing. There are all kinds of swords, guns and spears, some even have only one stick, and more
His hands were empty...like a group of homeless vagabonds in the rain. Jiang Wang heard an overwhelming vibration on the tower. "What? Ximing City has been captured by the Qi army? Doesn't that mean that the entire Linwu Prefecture has been captured?"
? How could it be so? How long has it been? What is Mr. Feng Guo doing to seek death? So many words!" Under the light of the city defense formation, the crowd's voice became restless for a moment. Suddenly, a general-like figure
Someone stood up and said: "Brothers from Fengli Mansion, we dare not ignore this extraordinary period. Please send the flag and seal the letter for inspection! The flag is broken, the letter is lost, but the seal is still with you!" Chongxuan Sheng said bitterly.
Then he shouted anxiously: "I wonder if this is okay? I am really from Fengli Prefecture. I live in Xieyang Lane, Duanhu City. My surname is Zhang and I am the third eldest child in my family." In fact, he has a full set of flag seals and letters. Not only those from the Fengli Prefecture Army.
, Shaokang Mansion and even Huiming Mansion... there are everything in the storage box. But after such a tragic defeat, the soldiers could not hold their weapons. It is strange that the flags, seals and letters are still intact. "He then presented it.
Come here!" The general on the tower probably couldn't stand such nonsense and quickly interrupted him.
While talking, a hanging basket was put down on the tower, and a soldier jumped out and trotted this way in the rain. Jiang, who was about to go to deliver the seal, had to stand still. The soldier guarding Huyang Pass trotted in.
In the heavy rain, after a while, he was soaked wet, but he did not avoid it, but looked at the defeated soldier calmly. Qingzhuan took the order seal from Jiang Wang's hand, stepped forward and handed it to him.
He said in the accent of Fengli Mansion: "Brother, please excuse me!" The soldier took the seal wrapped in leather with one hand. The leather was removed from the armor, which shows the haste at that time. It can almost be imagined.
That kind of embarrassing scene. The defeated army encountered a continuous rain, and the general took off his armor and skins, just to protect the most important order and seal... "Don't you have a storage box?" the soldier asked. "Where can you afford it?
?" Qingzhuan said bitterly: "Brother, please hurry up and inspect, it's really hard to bear in the rain! Okay." The guard nodded, but took a few more glances: "Are you really a slave?" Qingzhuan said:
"I also want to be a nobleman. I also want to be well-dressed and live in peace and prosperity. I don't want to hang my head on my belt and get wet in the rain here! But can it be done?" The pawn chuckled: "Oh, don't be angry, I
I'm afraid you will remember it wrong. After all, the situation is so chaotic, and you are moving here and there." Qing Zhuan lowered his face and said, "Who can remember the place where my parents raised me wrong? We suffered a defeat, but
You have tried your best. Don't make fun of us!" As the commander-in-chief of the army, Zhong Xuansheng also turned to look at him. The heavy rain had hit his flesh, and his small eyes could see a trace of the fierceness on the battlefield.
"I'm going to return my order!" The gatekeeper took the order seal and ran back quickly. The military boots stepped on the muddy ground, causing muddy water to splash, which really made people feel chilly. On the tower of the city, the man who looked like a general was standing next to him.
Kong shouted: "Brothers from Fengli Mansion, please wait a moment!" Chongxuansheng wiped his face and shouted: "The rain is too heavy, there are so many of us, it is not convenient to enter the customs now. I
I understand your difficulties, good brother, can you send some tents down first so that my brothers can have a shelter from the rain? It doesn’t matter that I am thick-skinned, but many brothers who were injured on the battlefield have already been exposed to the rain.
Incredible!" He realized that the Huyangguan guard who had not shown up yet, named Chu Shuo, was a very difficult person. Compared with the guard of Ximing City, he was more cautious.
No less. Huyangguan would not let them in today no matter what. Even if they were let in, they would have to be supervising the crossbows with swords, which would easily make people see the problem. So he simply offered not to let them in.
Pass, help the guard of Huyang Pass dispel his vigilance. Our troops have not entered the city, what can we do? There was silence on the tower for a while, probably asking someone for instructions, and soon a voice replied: "No problem!"
At normal times, when the communication arrays of the two governments communicated, they asked Fengli if there was a person named Zhang. There was no way to hide the two of them. But during the war, the isolation of the communication arrays made it impossible.
Chong Xuan Sheng's opportunity to disguise. Unless the Huiming Mansion urgently sends someone to Fengli to inquire and not say whether he will do this, just do it and go back and forth, and what needs to be done will have been done long ago.
The inspection of the seal does not take much time, and what Zhong Xuan Sheng brought out were real tokens, so there was no problem. Not long after, the city gate opened wide, and dozens of carriages carrying tents and other supplies came to Yibiao.
The cavalry escort came out and the city defense formation was not closed. The defeated army from Fengli Mansion also waited silently in the rain. The motorcade quickly approached, and the leading cavalry general was a young general in bright clothes.
Jiang Wang could see clearly that this guy was clearly the gatekeeper who ran over to get the seal! At this time, he just washed his face, changed his clothes, and pulled out two strands of dragon whiskers and bangs from his hair.
Pretending to see them for the first time, he greeted Chongxuan Sheng from afar: "Brother Li!" He also waved to other soldiers in the rain: "Brothers from Fengli Mansion, you have worked hard! I will give it to you.
I brought a tent and food and drink! My surname is Zhang, Zhang Gu! I am known as Zhang Dayan!" Chong Xuansheng said in a rough voice. The young general looked at his little eyes, but did not laugh out loud, and just said: "I'm sorry.
, I remembered the wrong person. When I checked your seal, I thought it was the one named Li. I don’t know anyone named Li!” The defeated general’s rude attitude did not make the young general angry. In his opinion,
Come on, the general named Zhang Gu obviously recognized him, but because he was under the roof, he had to pretend not to know him for the sake of his brothers. Not a bad general!
With this judgment in his mind, he said with some arrogance: "Brother Zhang is a man of character, and I like him very much. It's a pity that the country is in crisis and God is not beautiful, but we only met under such circumstances... I touch the jade dragon."
." Chong Xuan Sheng's face showed just the right amount of surprise: "It turns out that he is from a famous family, so no wonder his temperament is so extraordinary!" Chu Yulong thought to himself, why didn't you see that I was extraordinary earlier? But he has long been used to people's regard for his family background.
He was in awe. So he said: "The guard of Huyang Pass is my uncle. His old man has already made strict precautions. Even if a sparrow flies by, he has to be questioned several times. It is not against Brother Zhang... Ximing
The city has fallen? I actually don’t know!” Chongxuan Sheng said bitterly: “Our brothers were attacked by the Qi people’s ambush before we could get closer. We managed to escape with our lives, but we didn’t actually see Ximing City.
"Chu Yulong said: "It seems that Ximing City is still resisting, but it is almost the same as falling... No wonder Ximing City's letter for help can be sent easily. This is a strategy to encircle the point for reinforcements!" Chong Xuansheng thought in his heart.
He cursed, you received my letter asking for help, but you didn't know how to come to help. You are really a courageless gangster, a heartless coward, and you don't have the slightest bit of moral integrity! His face showed a look of astonishment: "That's it! General Lu can see it."
Through!" Chu Yulong waved his hand: "Xiao Shu'er. We have thousands of miles of fertile land in Great Xia, but if every place can be like my Huyang Pass, what will happen if the Qi army comes with millions more?!"
"That's natural!" Chong Xuansheng said with a proud look: "If you make the gates of the world like a touching general, if you make the gates of the world have Jade Dragon generals, our Daxia will be indestructible! Maybe it will be early
The fight has reached Linzi!" He complimented a few words and already had a heated fight with Chu Yulong. He took advantage of the situation and said: "I have admired General Chu for a long time. I wonder if I will have the opportunity to meet him this time?" What kind of strong man is only one step away from the gods?
If you let me get close to Brother Wang, I will keep you on the spiritual throne! Go and make incense and become a god! "No." Chu Yulong refused without any room for maneuver. "Uncle, he is in danger at Huyang Pass.
, it is absolutely impossible to meet outsiders during the war. In this way..." Chong Xuansheng looked regretful, but said sensibly: "I can understand it! General Chu said that he would concentrate on the defense of the city and never give any opportunity to outsiders.
Those who are good at fighting will never miss a beat, and this is the master of the art of war."... These two people, one of them used his Daoyuan to isolate the rain curtain, and still looked cool and calm in the torrential rain. One of them was soaked in water, and it was also
Not covering up. It really reflected their identity very well. Jiang Wang couldn't bear to hear Zhong Xuan Sheng's flattery here. Zi Gu walked away and went to the Fourteenth place to help set up the tent. She was in full armor
It was not very convenient to do such work while I was here. As they chatted, Chu Yulong glanced at Xiao Ling who was walking away, and casually said to Zhong Xuan Sheng: "You Xiao Ling, you don't look very smart.
"What is the position of Xiao Ling? He is responsible for delivering orders to the entire army for the general. He is regarded as a close confidant.
At such a stormy time, I didn't know how to set up a tent for the general to protect myself from the rain. I stayed here for a long time. When I left, I didn't even say hello, and there was no courtesy at all... This is a rural place.
He came, but he couldn't ask for more. Zhong Xuan Sheng laughed: "This kid has no eyesight for a day or two, and I'm used to it!" Chu Yulong was praised by Zhong Xuan Sheng just right, and he was praised like a cloud.
In the mist, he gradually became less careful with his words. Of course, in his opinion, this may be a kind of courtesy and kindness to the corporal. He clicked his tongue: "There is also the armor-piercing one who can run with you like this with full armor and heavy sword."
Yuan, I guess you are one of your warriors, right? Why can't you think clearly? How can you set up a tent wearing armor? You are so clumsy." Chongxuan Sheng was still smiling and narrowed his eyes. He said in the rain, "She is quite stupid.
