Chapter 1023 Jin Xuan: Report to Shenjing and send out heavenly troops for rescue immediately!

 Qinghai

While Jin Xiaoyu was thinking about strategies to defeat the enemy, in the Golden Khan Tent five miles away, Dorji, one of the Eight Great Lords of Qinghai, was summoning his generals, Yue Tuo and others to talk.

In the golden tent, the torches were brightly lit and there were crowds of people.

Dorji looked at the generals on the left and right of the seats and said: "From yesterday afternoon to now, in the two days of attack and defense, the Han army in the city has not left the city. Our army wants to break the city, where should we start?"

The 30,000 Xining border troops were not defeated at the first touch in Haiyan City. They relied on the city to throw rolling logs and rocks at the soldiers and horses below, blocking the Heshuote Mongolian siege.

Meng An said in a deep voice: "Taiji, when we were defeated and retreated from Haiyan City, there was still a group of troops hiding in the residences. As long as we wait until tonight to raise a fire as a signal, we can rush in from the south city and capture the city."

"

As a general under Dorji, Meng'an lost the city of Haiyan under the fierce attack of 30,000 troops in Xining, but before leaving, he left 200 troops hidden among the mixed Mongols.

When Dorji arrived with a large group of elite Mongolian troops, it came in handy.

Yue Tuo also spoke: "Brother, our Eight Banners warriors also sneaked into the city secretly before, and now they are enough to cause trouble."

In the past few days, Yue Tuo and Dorji have become sworn brothers.

Dorji thought for a while, then a determined look appeared on his face, and he said in a deep voice: "Then use troops tonight to recapture Haiyan City!"

Yue Tuo said again: "Brother, we must strive for full success in this battle."

Dorji was surprised and said: "How to get all the credit?"

"Brother, if the Xining border army is defeated and escapes from the city, our army should send a force of troops to cover up and kill them on the road they must pass through at night, and eat these 30,000 Xining border troops in one bite!" Yue Tuo's eyes were aggressive.

His face was full of anger.

As a wise general in the Jurchen country, Yue Tuo was not only brave and good at fighting, but also resourceful and good at using both extraordinary and serious soldiers.

Dorji said: "Brother Xian is right. We have many soldiers and horses. We must not only defeat the Han people, but also bury them all!"

Thinking of this, he made up his mind, and Dorji said: "Brother, I will give you seven thousand soldiers and horses. You can ambush the Han people on their way to escape and try your best to keep them!"

Yue Tuo looked heroic and said with emotion: "I will definitely live up to my brother's trust!"

The plan was decided, it was getting late, until midnight, inside Haiyan County——

Jin Xiaoyu was sitting in the study, holding a candlestick in his hand, looking at the map of Qinghai and even the snowy area, his brows furrowed and his eyes full of thought.

If he can defeat the Dorji tribe in Qinghai this time, then the soldiers and horses in Xining Prefecture will completely obey his orders, and then take back the four guards outside the Great Wall and pacify the Western Regions, then this achievement will be enough to shock the past and present, because it is the achievement of expanding the border.

Compared to the kid killing the angry chief, it is no less generous.

"kill!"

At this moment, bursts of killing cries suddenly came from the city, which was particularly earth-shattering in the silent night.

Jin Xiaoyu put down the candlestick, looked up at the moonlit courtyard outside, and asked, "What's going on?"

At this time, a general quickly entered the study and said in a panic: "Your Majesty, it's not good, the Mongolian Tatars have invaded the city."

Haiyan City was originally a small city. Thirty thousand soldiers and horses gathered in the small county town. Because Qiang and Hu people lived together with Han people, it was complicated and complex. After Jin Xiaoyu captured the city, he had not yet had time to sort out and identify the spies in the city.

The more than 200 Mongolian soldiers and horses left behind by the Jurchens and Meng'an before their retreat were fighting for the gate of the southern city. They fought hard to kill the officers and soldiers. With a "squeak", they opened the blocked city gate and welcomed the Qinghai Mongolian soldiers.

The horse enters the city.

Jin Xiaoyu shouted loudly and shouted: "Bring me my armor and sword!"

The general quickly fetched the armor and Yan Ling Dao. Jin Xiaoyu put on the armor in a short time, holding a Yan Ling Dao as sharp as water in his hand, and strode outside. As soon as he came to the hall, he saw a gloomy-looking man.

Zhan Yunguo came towards him.

Zhan Yunguo said in a deep voice: "Xiaoyu, the enemy has entered the city and cannot hold it anymore. Leave the city."

Jin Xiaoyu said: "Uncle, there is still a way, just drive them out."

If he returns to Xining City, how will he go to see his second uncle? Wouldn't it be true for his second uncle's comment that he is reckless and does not care about anything important?

Zhan Yunguo shook his head, took Jin Xiaoyu's arm, winked at the general, and said: "Xiaoyu, the city cannot be defended. Now that we have returned to Huangyuan, we can still do something."

He could not watch the Xining frontier army die in one battle. If they were defeated, they would be defeated. There was no way this small county could fight to the death with the elites of Mongolia.

Jin Xiaoyu's expression changed, and he was about to say something when, with the help of several generals, he followed Zhan Yunguo and led the soldiers and generals who came after hearing the news to kill outside the city.

However, there were already rioting soldiers all around, and the loud shouts of killing were approaching the county government office.

At this moment, outside the city, looking at the Haiyan City with flames soaring into the sky, Dorji looked at Yue Tuan aside and said with a smile: "This Haiyan City was originally built for me by Mongolia. The Han people couldn't defend it at all. In the past, it was

The various tribes in Qinghai tolerated the Han people lording it over their heads."

It can be said that the small Haiyan City was originally not suitable for hoarding too many troops. Even Dorji only left Meng'an and sent 5,000 people to occupy the county seat.

However, Jin Xiaoyu stationed his troops and horses in Haiyan and did not send troops, or in other words, did not have time to send troops to Qinghai Mongolia, so he opened the city for internal affairs.

The Xining border troops in the city were inferior to those of Qinghai and Mongolia in terms of combat power. They were captured in the city while they were sleeping, and chaos broke out in an instant.

Then, under the order of Zhan Yunguo, he opened four cities and fled, and Jin Xiaoyu also got out of the city gate and fled towards Huangyuan County.

The days in summer were long and the nights were short. At dawn, the shouts of killing in Haiyan County stopped, and the war in Xining City came to an end.

Dorji sat behind the bill and said: "The Han people cannot stand in this city at all."

On the other side, at Chenshi, Jin Xiaoyu and Zhan Yunguo led more than ten thousand remaining soldiers out of Haiyan City and fled towards Huangyuan County.

Fleeing to Bayan, a hundred miles away from Haiyan, Jin Xiaoyu looked ugly and said: "Uncle, you shouldn't escape, you should fight them to the death."

"If we don't escape, the whole army will be wiped out." Zhan Yunguo said in a deep voice: "I asked you to divide your troops out of the city and set up camp, but you didn't allow it."

At the beginning, Jin Xiaoyu could not make mistakes in his deployment of troops. Once outside the city, it would be easy for the Qinghai Mongolian cavalry to take advantage of him.

After all, the combat effectiveness of the Xining Border Army has degraded to the level of a second-rate unit of the Chen-Han Provincial Army.

Because the northwest has been at peace for more than ten years, there is no major battle to fight. No matter how strict the king of Xining County is in running the army, he cannot stop the downward trend of military strength.

Jin Xiaoyu's face was gloomy. At this pass, suddenly there was a sound of arrows, accompanied by a scream, and on the grassland in front, he saw a large number of cavalry, majestic and majestic, like black clouds pressing over the city.

In addition to the generals under Dorji who led the army, there was another person at the head, none other than Yue Tuo.

The general showed admiration on his face and said, "How did the prince know that these defeated soldiers would escape from here?"

"Only this road can accommodate more than ten thousand troops to escape eastward." Yue Tuo said coldly.

Although the Xining border troops in front of them numbered twelve thousand, under the leadership of Zhan Yunguo, the troops left Haiyan City in good order.

But in Yue Tuo's eyes, he was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

The defeated army fled in panic, but only a few charged and killed them.

Jin Xiaoyu's expression changed slightly at this moment, and even the horse sitting down was tapping its hooves uneasily, which seemed to make people panic.

It is true as Yue Tuo said, the men and horses are exhausted, the soldiers are in panic, it is the time when the morale is low, and at this moment, when they suddenly encounter a strong Mongolian force, 70% of their morale has been lost.

"Generals, obey my orders and meet the enemy!" Zhan Yunguo said.

Jin Xiaoyu also clenched the Yanling Dao in his hand and looked at the Mongolian soldiers and horses who were about to charge in a mighty manner, his heart beating like a drum.

"kill!"

A stream of red torrent collides with the black smoke cloud, and the brave one wins when they meet on a narrow road.

The cavalry on both sides clashed with each other. Amidst the crisp sound of "clang, clang", the sharp blades broke flesh, accompanied by screams, one after another on the battlefield.

"呲呲!"

Blood gurgled and the ownerless war horse whined and fell to the ground, but the soldiers on both sides turned a blind eye and fought fiercely.

Jin Xiaoyu held a long sword and killed three people in a row. The bright silver armor he wore was stained with blood. Suddenly he looked back and saw that the Zhou army's troops and horses were scattered in pieces, and the Han army was retreating steadily.

, those who were killed were routed into disarray.

Yue Tuo was holding the reins at this moment, and at a glance he saw Jin Xiaoyu, whose horse was charging wildly, and a cold light appeared in his eyes.

This Han will be the leader. Capture the thief first and capture the king first!

With this thought, he summoned the soldiers beside him, drove the horses, and killed Jin Xiaoyu like a sharp arrow.

Suddenly, the light of the saber in his hand suddenly appeared, like a startled lion in training.

Jin Xiaoyu also saw Yue Tuo, and they met Yue Tuan almost as if they were destined to meet each other. He rushed towards Yue Tuo.

"clang!"

As sparks shot out, Jin Xiaoyu narrowed his eyes slightly, his body on the horse was shaken, and his heart was frightened.

In just one round, Jin Xiaoyu felt an indescribable sense of oppression coming over him, which was the breath of death.

Yue Tuo is a famous general who has left a name in history, with great military achievements, but Jin Xiaoyu's appearance as a man is naturally far inferior.

At this time, the sword made of fine steel in Yue Tuan's hand was as fast and fierce as the wind, and the increasingly fierce sword attacks continued like a tide. Jin Xiaoyu was undoubtedly tired of parrying.

The war horses under the seat gradually let out an overwhelmed neigh.

In the midst of the lightning and flint, Yue Tuo's face suddenly surged with anger, and the veins on his neck popped out, and he slashed towards Jin Xiaoyu's neck.

"Xiaoyu!" Zhan Yunguo was sitting on the horse at this moment. Seeing this scene, he became more and more anxious. He waved his sword continuously and killed the two people. He wanted to drive the horse to save them, but it was too late.

"Pfft!"

A big head soars into the sky, blood spurting out like a fountain, and the young face stares angrily, as if in disbelief.

"Happy!" Yue Tuan laughed loudly, like an eagle and an owl roaring violently. The roar of the roar spread across the fighting battlefield, which actually made people feel a little bit frightened.

The Han army, which had been struggling to support itself, suddenly appeared like a scorching sun. In an instant, the ice melted and disintegrated. The morale of the Han army was sluggish and they began to flee in all directions.

Zhan Yunguo's vision went dark, and his heart ached when he saw this scene.

At this time, the guard general beside him said: "General, retreat!"

The army was defeated like a mountain, and at this moment, the situation was irreversible.

Zhan Yunguo, accompanied by a group of generals and retinues, led his troops and horses to flee towards Huangyuan.

Yue Tuo, on the other hand, ordered his soldiers and horses to divide and strangle the Han army, chasing the remaining soldiers.

Qinghai, Huangyuan County

Jin Xuan, the brother of the King of Xining County, stationed in the county yesterday. Forty thousand Xining border troops took over the county. Jin Xuan has built five villages around the county and sent 3,000 troops to guard Haiyan.

Compared to Kim Hyo Wook who is immature and headstrong, Kim Hyun, who has spent his life as a soldier, is obviously much more steady and steady.

Huangyuan is deeper into the Mongolian hinterland of Qinghai than Haiyan. Because it is closer to Xining Fucheng, the proportion of Han people in the city is higher. Han officials have long been managing affairs here. It is extremely convenient for grain and grass to be transferred from Xining to Huangyuan.

The county government office has long been converted into a meeting hall. At this moment, the clerks on both sides are dealing with money, food and other matters for the army. The magistrate of Huangyuan County has already led the county's Chinese officials, compiled history, and prepared food and military supplies for the army.

.

Jin Xuan was in his early forties, with a medium build, a face as heavy as a jujube, and a hidden sparkle in his eyes. He sat behind the commander's desk, put down the military report in his hand like a thin pine branch, and asked: "Is there any filial piety in the direction of Haiyan?"

News about Yu?”

At this time, a dark-skinned young general with thick eyebrows and big eyes named Fang Jin, who was Jin Xuan's second son-in-law, stood up and said, "Master Yue-in-law, there is no news about Xiaoyu yet."

Jin Xuan frowned and said in a low voice: "Yesterday, Uncle Xiaoyu told me that he led the troops and could not leave Haiyan City. How could this be possible? If we did not explore the movements of Mongolia in Qinghai and were besieged in the city, wouldn't it be wrong?

Tired to death?"

Fang Jin thought for a while and said loudly: "Master Yue-Zhang, how about I lead my troops to go and respond."

Jin Xuan looked silent and said in a low voice: "The enemy's situation is not clear yet, let's find someone to find out more."

If my nephew had great ambitions but little talent, he would not have sent out troops like this if he had known himself and abdicated the throne in favor of a worthy person.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside. Jin Xuan looked unhappy and was about to shout a question.

Immediately, a middle-aged general stepped into the hall, with a look of panic on his face, and said with cupped hands: "Sir, the defeated troops from Haiyan County have returned."

"Defeated?" Jin Xuan said in shock.

The middle-aged general said anxiously: "My lord, we are a defeated army. We said the day before yesterday that the people inside Haiyan City should join forces with the Mongolian soldiers outside the city to join them and enter the city. The prince led the defeated army and fled out of the city."

Jin Xuan frowned and asked quickly: "Where is he?"

Not long after, Jin Xuan saw the defeated general who had escaped from Haiyan City. Hearing him narrate the whole story, his face was as solid as iron and he said: "Fang Jin, please quickly summon the Xining cavalry to Haiyan to meet him."

The Xining border army also has an elite force of about 30,000 people. They were originally direct descendants of King Jincheng of Xining County. Compared with the decline of other soldiers and horses in Xining over the years, the strength of this elite force is considerable, and it is the foundation of the Xining Jin family.

.

At this moment, Jin Xuan had taken everyone out from Xining Mansion just to be on the safe side.

"Master Yue-Zhang." Fang Jin's face slightly condensed and he said softly: "The army has been newly defeated and the situation is unknown. The cavalry must not leave lightly."

Jin Xuan looked gloomy and said: "With Uncle Xiaoyu's ability, he will definitely be able to bring out nearly half of the defeated army. At this moment, we should gather towards Huangyuan, but there is no guarantee that Mongolia will not send cavalry to intercept them. I will rush to respond."

But at this moment, another young general came from the courtyard and said anxiously: "Sir, General Zhan is back."

Zhan Yunguo holds the title of Commander-in-Chief of Xining, so he is regarded as Commander-in-Chief of Xining.

Jin Xuan's face was slightly condensed, and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. He quickly left the hall and stood under the eaves of the corridor to look.

Sure enough, after a while, I saw Zhan Yunguo, whose hair was disheveled and covered in blood with his face stained with tears, who was being held by his personal guards. He walked forward quickly and said sadly: "Your Majesty..."

"What's wrong with Xiaoyu?" Jin Xuan grabbed Zhan Yunguo's arm tightly and asked anxiously with a slightly condensed expression.

Zhan Yunguo choked and said: "Xiaoyu was beheaded."

When Jin Xuan heard this, his vision went dark, his face turned pale, and his figure swayed.

After all, I grew up watching Kim Hyo-wook and a group of sisters. Although they competed for the title of county king, they did not necessarily want to kill their nephew.

"Master Yue Zhang." Fang Jin quickly supported Jin Xuan from the side, with worry on his face.

Jin Xuan's eyes were wet, he suppressed the sadness in his heart, waved his hand and said: "Gather Haiyan's defeated troops and horses, and report to Shenjing to send out the heavenly troops for rescue immediately!"

After the defeat, Jin Xuan, who had always been cautious, no longer dared to send his troops to Haiyan, where the situation was unknown. He suppressed the pain of losing his nephew and asked the court for reinforcements.





In the sacred city, Princess Xianning’s Mansion——

Jia Heng went to the Jia Mansion in the evening, had a few glasses of wine with the Jia family members, and returned to the mansion in the dark night.

At this moment, the entire princess mansion is brightly lit, as bright as day.

In fact, it's not just the Princess Mansion, because of today's festive atmosphere, the shops on both sides of the capital have also been put on red lanterns.

Jia Heng got off his horse and looked away. Red octagonal palace lanterns were hung in front of the corridor and behind the house, which contrasted with the purple-red silk ribbons hanging on the beams, creating a joyful scene.

Jia Heng walked through the corridor and alley towards the back house as he was called Prince Consort one after another.

Princess Xianning and Princess Qinghe were in a house, or even a courtyard, but the space was very large and divided into pavilions.

The one on the east side is Princess Xianning, and the one on the west side is Princess Qinghe. Obviously, the issue of the bridal chamber between Princess Xianning and Princess Qinghe has been taken into consideration.

It's just a bit hard for Jia Heng and he needs to run on both sides.

At this moment, the Nuan Pavilion and the wardrobe carved with Luan and Phoenix have been pasted with the red words Double Happiness, and the red candles are shining brightly.

"Prince-in-law."

When Jia Heng came to the wing where Princess Xianning was, the maids on both sides of the door saluted the young man.

Jia Heng nodded, took out a handful of golden melon seeds from the purse at his waist, and said: "You have worked hard, divide them up, and go and rest early."

Xiaoxiao will be married and will arrive on the moon later, so these palace ladies should stop eavesdropping outside.

"Thank you, Prince Consort, for the reward." All the palace maids smiled happily and laughed happily.

When Zhixia, the female official in the house, heard the noise outside, she quickly got up and went over to greet him.

And Li Chanyue, who was sitting on the bed in the west pavilion, folded her hands on her chest, clenched her hands tightly, and her face under the red hijab was as rosy as clouds, and her heart was in her throat.

Mr. Jia Xiao is at the door.

Although I have...reached the door before, this time I probably wanted to come in.

Yeah, what was she thinking about? Her cousin got it wrong.

As for Princess Xianning, she does not have so many mental activities at the moment and is dozing off in her hijab.

Although today is his special day, after all, he and Jia Heng have already been married, and he got up early in the morning and was busy for most of the day, so now he feels a little sleepy.

Although he secretly asked his personal female officer Zhi Xia to bring him some snacks to cushion him, after dusk, he felt sleepy.

Jia Heng entered the Nuan Pavilion, looked at Zhixia, and said, "Zhixia, you go and have a rest too."

"I'll take care of you." Zhixia, a tall and pretty female official, said softly with lowered eyebrows.

Jia Heng said softly: "I'll be fine if I come."

It will be more embarrassing when Xiaoxiao comes over later.

Zhixia had a troubled look on her face and hesitated: "But according to the rules of the palace, Your Highness..."

If His Highness has an order later, she will be able to respond at any time.

"Zhixia, you and Chuntao, please go down first. I don't have to wait here." Princess Xianning's voice came, with a lazy and gentle voice.

He clearly heard Jia Heng's voice.

"Yes, Your Highness." When Zhixia heard this, her jade face changed slightly, and she bowed Yingyingfu. Then she walked around several screens and came to the West Pavilion to call away Chuntao, the female official who was serving beside the little princess Li Chanyue.

With a "squeak" sound, the outer door was closed, and the room fell into silence for a while.

Jia Heng came close enough to take the jade Ruyi wrapped in red string from the high table where melon seeds, longan and other gifts were placed. He looked at the girl sitting in the red gauze tent and said softly: "Xianning, we

Let’s take off the hijab first.”

Princess Xianning did not respond at this moment. It is obvious that the girl is also looking forward to and cherishing this wedding.

As the hijab was opened by Jade Ruyi, the emerald phoenix crown shone brightly, and the jade tassel hung down from the forehead, covering a face that was as gorgeous as a spring flower.

Princess Xianning's eyes suddenly lit up. The red candle with the word "Double Happiness" on the high table above the window flickered on her face like water.

The tear mole has a bit more hazy and graceful appearance.

The girl originally had a beautiful face with curved eyebrows and plump cheeks. At this moment, her peach blossom-like lips pursed a delicate smile, as if spring flowers were blooming, and her voice was like flowing jade from a spring: "Consort, are you back?"

Even though I have seen the beauty of Xianning in spring, I still feel indescribably stunning when I see the girl in her wedding dress and red makeup.

Sure enough, a wedding dress is the most beautiful outfit a woman has ever worn in her life.

So, some little fairies wear wedding dresses to go on a ten-year date?

Unlike Yuanchun, who belongs to the graceful and elegant Tang Dynasty Huayan, Baochai is a sweet and fat girl from Sichuan and Chongqing, and Daiyu is a white and thin girl from Suzhou.

But Qing has the beauty of both hairpin and daisy. Her appearance is indeed slightly better than that of Sichun, but her hairpin and daisy hair are better. There is a saying.

It's not that you can Qing Nanbowan. If you take into account the appearance, figure, charm, voice, personality, and even status bonus... Others such as Tanchun, Xiangyun, Miaoyu, and Xiuyan are quite unique.

Moreover, Keqing is still slightly inferior to Jinyang and Song...

When beauty reaches a certain level, it is actually like plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum, each of which is good at winning.

Well, even the supervisor of the island country knows that the attack speed can only be increased by adding professional labels and identity attributes.

Regardless of her height or face, Xianning is the kind of beauty that conforms to the aesthetics of future generations. She is not an Internet celebrity with a tapered face, but a tall, thin, fair-skinned goddess in college. Even without makeup, she is already youthful and beautiful.

Bright and moving.

Is she probably a tiger goddess with a straight male aesthetic?

Although the tear mole at the corner of the eye looks like a white jade with a slight flaw, it just makes the dreamy and false solemn face painting style in Da Liu's paintings become real and tangible.

Of course, is it because of the red candle lighting?

Jia Heng was startled for a moment, his thoughts were complicated, he held Xian Ning's bare hand and said, "Xian Ning, I'm really not used to you calling me that all of a sudden."

Maybe next time, let Xian Ning change his name, such as Brother Heng? Heng Lang? Dad... Forget it, it's treasonous.

Princess Xianning's eyebrows were curved and her eyes were as clear as the moonlight. She smiled softly and caught the surprise and loss in the young man's eyes, and her heart was full of joy and sweetness.

It seems that the phoenix crown she wears is very popular with her husband. Then... she won't take it off later.

Princess Xianning said softly: "Sir, I'm starving. Go and see Chan Yue. Bring her over and let's drink Hexin wine. Chan Yue is starving too."

"I was talking about going to look for her." Jia Heng said, taking Yu Ruyi and going to the West Pavilion to look for Li Chanyue.

As the wife of his own Mingming medium, he still cared very little about Chan Yue.

Should I untie her knot later, or is it the wrong move?

It seems that the latter is more...

Well, it's better to be more upright.

At this moment, Li Chanyue was sitting in the west pavilion on both sides of the curtain, with her hands folded on her calves, covered with a red hijab, and her heart was beating loudly in her chest.

She didn't know why, even though she and Mr. Jia had... skin-to-skin contact, she still felt expectant and nervous.
