The sound of chaotic footsteps broke the solemnity and silence of the palace. Several officials almost ran away, and no one accused them of their disrespect. Novel し "When did you hit here?"
"Are all the government soldiers along the way dead?"
"They disguised themselves, burned, killed, looted at night, and slaughtered wherever they went."
"Let Jingdong Road be punished."
The Hall of Qinzheng was even more noisy.
"What's the crime now!" The emperor slapped the table and shouted, "If we kill them all now, can we stop the golden man?"
The hall fell silent.
"What should we do now? What should we do now?" the emperor said angrily, pointing at the people in the hall, "What's the matter with you? The golden people are all under their noses."
All the officials fell to their knees.
"The minister is guilty."
"Your Majesty, it has been found out that this is a small group of Jinren stragglers." An official raised his head and said hastily, "There are not many people, only less than 300 people, who disguised themselves to cover up their whereabouts, and then raided all the way to Jingdong Road."
"Yes, Your Majesty, Jingdong Road has intercepted them." Another official also said hastily.
While talking, an official rushed in from outside.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, stop it, stop it." He shouted, "One hundred and eight Jin soldiers have been beheaded on Jingdong Road, and thirty-four people have survived. The rest have fled, and the whole territory is under siege."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the hall breathed a sigh of relief, and the emperor also sat down on the dragon chair.
"No one will stay." He said again, his face still terrified, "Let Beijing, East and West be under martial law, and this situation cannot happen again."
The officials present responded in unison, the emperor waved his hands wearily, all the officials hurriedly saluted and withdrew, Huang Cheng was stopped.
"What exactly do the Jin people want? Do they have an answer?" the emperor asked anxiously.
Huang Cheng looked calm.
"We still need money and goods." He said, "It is said that it is difficult to survive the winter and start the spring, and I am talking about..."
"What are you talking about? It's just money and goods. Hurry up and send them away." The emperor interrupted him angrily.
Huang Cheng hurriedly replied yes.
"I'm going to meet them in person." He raised his head as if making up his mind.
The emperor waved his hand indifferently.
"Go, go, go, go," he said.
Huang Cheng bowed and said yes.
The streets of the capital were full of panic-stricken people, talking and inquiring everywhere.
"The golden man is really calling?"
"terrible!"
"Isn't the capital dangerous?"
"Run! Run south."
Talking about how easy it is to start running, the crowd looked terrified and anxious, but soon someone conveyed the latest news.
"It's a group of stragglers that have been wiped out."
"Just say, how could it be possible to call?"
"The Jin people are best at this kind of banditry. When we were in the Northland, a group of people would often rob and run away suddenly."
"There are 100,000 soldiers and horses on Jingdong Road."
These words somewhat calmed the fear of the people.
"Look again, after all, the emperor is here."
"Who has the relationship to inquire about the latest news?"
The assembled crowd blocked the street, and a team of guards had to yell at them to get out of the way.
Seeing this team of guards, many people recognized that it was Mr. Huang's car. Although they were busy, they got out of the way, but many people couldn't help asking.
"Master Huang, is the golden man really calling?"
Naturally, Huang Cheng would not answer this question, but he did not pass through without saying a word. The steward following the car raised his hand to signal to the people.
"Don't spread rumors to create momentum." He said, "The Jin people didn't come to fight, it was just a small group of stragglers, and they have been wiped out."
Huang Cheng is a senior official in the imperial court. Hearing what his people said, the people were all relieved, and asked more and more questions.
The steward didn't answer this time, but just waved his hand.
"Military and political affairs should not be discussed indiscriminately." He said, surrounded by guards, followed the chariot and horse forward.
The people were stopped and stopped, watching Huang Cheng's car driving forward, suddenly someone realized that the direction was wrong.
"Why did Lord Huang go out of the city?" someone asked.
At this time, many people are considering whether to run or not. Does Master Huang have the same plan
If the officials are going to run away, then...
"Master Huang is going to meet the Jinren's envoy." A well-informed person curled his lips and said with joy on his face, "It's all right now, if we can talk, we don't need to fight."
So that's the case, and the surrounding people immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, yes, Jin people are nothing more than greedy for money and things, just give them."
"We don't lack these things, let's send them away quickly."
The atmosphere on the street was much more relaxed than before, and countless expectant eyes watched Huang Cheng drive away.
When he left the city gate, the steward still felt the heat on his back, and he couldn't help wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"My lord, are we really looking for the golden man?" He got into the car and asked in a low voice.
"Where can I find it?" Huang Cheng closed his eyes and said indifferently, "The Palace of the King of Hell? Or are you going to the Northland?"
Originally, Yu Chihai's people who stayed in the capital had already been killed by them, but now they went to the Northland, it was nothing more than courting death, they were all in the Palace of the King of Hades.
The manager was embarrassed, but he was even more puzzled. If this is the case, why did he lie to the emperor and still talk to the Jinren? Now you want to talk about it in person
Huang Cheng opened his eyes.
"Aren't you stupid?" He said, "Of course I'm running away at this time. The Jin people are calling, so why don't you run away and wait to be with Emperor Renxiao?"
ah? It turned out to be running? Jinren really called? The old story of Emperor Renxiao is about to repeat itself
The steward stared in shock.
…
The sound of hurried footsteps sounded in Beizhen Fusi.
"My lord is here."
Seeing Lu Yunqi approaching, a group of people rushed out of the way, revealing a burden that was being carried behind them.
On it lay a man, covered in blood.
Lu Yunqi stood over and looked down.
It turned out to be Jin Shiba.
His complexion was as pale as gold paper, obviously seriously injured.
As if aware of Lu Yunqi beside him, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Lord Lu." He called out weakly, as if confirming.
Lu Yunqi nodded.
"It's me," he said, "you can say it."
Jin Shiba vigorously raised his hand and grabbed Lu Yunqi's sleeve hanging by his side.
"My lord, the Jinren, here we come." He said with all his might, "The East and West Roads of Beijing are no match..."
His last breath was exhausted at this point, his hands hang down powerlessly, and his eyes are still wide open.
The faces of the Jinyi guards present all changed, but Lu Yunqi's expression was still blank, and he raised his hand to caress Jin Shiba's eyes.
…
Dust was flying in the wilderness, accompanied by the sound of yelling and cursing.
"Dog thief, isn't it very powerful? What are you running for?"
"Come and fight grandpa."
Laughing, "You are so fat, you can't run, you can't catch up."
The fat soldier was out of breath and couldn't help stopping with his hands on his knees.
"Brother Han, what you said is really inaccurate." He said, looking at the soldiers beside him, "You said I was fat, and when I met Jin Bing, I couldn't run and was killed. I didn't expect that Jin Bing met me. , but not being able to run is not being killed by Jin Bing, but to kill Jin Bing."
Brother Han laughed, watching the two golden soldiers in front of him fleeing towards the mountain pass.
"Hurry up, they are going to escape." The fat soldier Ding said anxiously, "Their heads are worth a general flag."
The others also wanted to chase, Fourth Brother Han was not in a hurry.
"Don't worry, they can't run away, Lao An and the others are blocking over there, just wait, these two brats will come back soon." He said, smashing the spear in his hand to the ground, as if waiting for a rabbit.
This is quite amusing, and everyone else is smiling, only the fat soldier is not happy.
"Lao An and the others are very stupid, maybe they can't stop them." He said, while running forward, "I have to go and see."
After running for two steps, I couldn't run anymore, put my hands on my knees, lowered my head and gasped for breath.
Brother Han and others behind him laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" The fat soldier looked back at them angrily, "Although I run slowly, I am good at marksmanship. Just wait, I will kill the two of them by myself..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Fourth Brother Han and the others who were smiling froze.
"Fatty, run." Brother Han shouted violently.
run? The fat soldier hummed twice.
"I'm not going to run," he said.
Before he finished speaking, Fourth Brother Han and the others began to back away.
"Fatty, run." They all hissed and ran back following the shouts.
The fat soldier was stunned for a moment, then looked back subconsciously, with a horrified expression on his face.
The two golden soldiers who had escaped just now had returned, without the slightest panic before, with ferocious smiles, and a group of cavalry appeared behind them.
The first row of five people is one person and two horses, armored copper helmets, sickles, bows, crossbows and long spears, and a colored flag is carried behind them.
Why is the golden soldier here again
And still such a capable cavalry
There were more than five people, they were slowly approaching here, and behind them, groups of cavalrymen appeared one after another. The narrow mountain pass seemed to be turned into a pocket, spitting out continuously, seemingly endlessly .
"Fatty, run."
Brother Han's hoarse shout came.
Run, yes, run, the fat soldier swung his arms and legs vigorously.
It seemed that he was running ridiculously, Jin Bing laughed loudly from behind, and said something in nonsense, and there was a sound of horseshoes behind him, approaching him, but he did not approach him for a long time, just like a cat playing with a mouse Same.
"Fatty, fatty, run."
Brother Han turned his head and shouted crying, but saw the fat soldier stop.
"Fuck his grandma." He yelled suddenly, "I can't run, I won't run."
Holding the spear, he turned and ran back towards the golden soldiers.
A nearby golden soldier waved his sickle at him without any hesitation, condescendingly chopped off the fat soldier's spear, and landed on his head.
With a scream, it brought a rain of blood.
Fourth Brother Han's eyes turned red, he gritted his teeth and turned around.
"I'm fighting with you," he shouted.
Anyway, he can't run away, so rather than being killed by a teaser, it's better to try to pull a back.
The other soldiers also turned around, clenched their spears and rushed towards the golden soldier while roaring.
…
On the high pier, a general looked forward with a pale face.
"Why... so many..." His voice trembled, "Didn't you say... there were only 300 stragglers? How could this be 300..."
In the wilderness, as far as the eye can see, the densely packed golden soldiers are coming here, like clouds covering the sky and the sun.
three hundred? This is more than 30,000...
"I can't stop it... the capital..." the general murmured, with a bit of sadness, "Meet the enemy..."
…
"This is impossible! How could the Jin people have so many soldiers and horses attacking the capital?"
Uncle Qing He shouted.
"Zhu Shan, don't be alarmist. You are a prisoner now. I won't let you command Beidi."
Cheng Guogong looked at him.
"Don't you think the whole thing is wrong?" he said, "starting with the sudden peace talks between the Jin men."
Isn't it right
If you can't win, of course you have to negotiate a peace...
Cheng Guogong nodded again.
"Well, with your brain, of course you don't think so." He said.
Uncle Qing He was furious again.
"Zhu Shan, you..." he shouted.
Cheng Guogong raised his hand to stop him.
"Uncle, now is not the time for you and me to argue." He said, his words fell, and a general with a pale face came in from outside.
"Uncle." He knelt on the ground with a thud, his voice hoarse, "The sentry came to report that the golden man has arrived on Jingdong Road."
really!
Qing Hebo suddenly stood up.
"How much?" he asked tremblingly.
It is not impossible for the Jinren to break through the Northland and invade Jingdong Road. The Jinren Qingqi are good at raids, but they are usually tens of hundreds of teams. If they invade, they will either run away or be strangled.
The general swallowed, as if he didn't dare to see He Bo clearly.
"I don't know at the moment, maybe..." He seemed to be unable to hold himself back and bent down on the ground, his voice muffled, "Forty thousand..."
Forty thousand is not a big number on the battlefield, and the garrison on Jingdong Road is far more than this number, but that was before. Now, in order to support Beidi, half of the garrison on Jingdong Road has been transferred away.
No wonder the Jinren were able to raid with so many soldiers and horses...
No wonder the golden man set him in an ambush...
No wonder the Jin Ren peace talks insisted on the three counties of the Northland, so as to go deep into the hinterland and make it easier to deploy troops...
It turned out that the drunken man's intention was not in the North, but in the capital...
Uncle Qing raised his foot and was about to rush out.
"Come, come, summon..." he shouted.
Cheng Guogong grabbed him.
"Assembly and then? Do you want to go after it?" he said.
At this time, there is no way to catch up.
Uncle Qinghe's complexion turns blue and white, that capital...that capital...
Are the old things in Kaifeng going to repeat itself
"When you dispatched troops to reinforce the army, I sent the troops from Suning Pass to the capital." Cheng Guogong said.
Qing Hebo was clever, his eyes sparkled.
At that time, there is some hope...
Cheng Guogong shook his head.
"As I said, all I know is that the Jin people are treacherous. I'm not a god. I don't know what they do and when they do it. So, I'm afraid there is still not enough time." He said.
"The most important thing is that the vicinity of the capital can't stop..." Qing He Bo continued.
Even if the Qingshan Army at Suning Pass is chasing after them, they are not intercepting them in the front. As long as the Jin people are given a chance to cross the Jingdong Road defense line, the capital will be like tofu to them...
"I hope the capital can hold the city, as long as it can hold, wait for the reinforcements to catch up..." He murmured, clenched his hands tightly, but his face was ashen.
Impossible in the capital, for the people there, they have never experienced the cruelty of war. Not to mention whether the forbidden army has the courage to fight, even if they fight, their combat effectiveness is...
It's over.
Uncle Qinghe's eyes darkened, and he fell down on the chair.
"However, although I am not a fairy."
Cheng Guogong's voice sounded again.
"But the world is not without miraculous things and miraculous people."
Uncle Qing He looked at him puzzled.
"What do you mean?" he asked.
Cheng Guogong looked in the direction of the capital with a gentle and calm expression.
"That person is still there, and there is still a glimmer of hope." He said.
that person
who
Qing Hebo frowned.
…
With a soft click, Miss Jun, who was sitting on the bed, put her hands on her knees and turned her head to look back.
The light fell from above, and was immediately covered by shadows. With the sound of footsteps, Lu Yunqi walked in.
"It's just in time for you to come back. I have something to say." Miss Jun looked at him and said.
