Shanhe Baier is still as old.

The fox and the rabbit are sad, the vegetation is autumn;

The Qin Palace and Sui Garden were stinky,

Where is Tang Que Han Tomb

Mountains, empty and sorrowful;

The river, empty artesian.

"Hillside Sheep Chang'an Nostalgia"

Yuan Dynasty: Zhao Shanqing

—I am the dividing line —

When the sun rose again the next day, Zhao Ziri, with a gray-headed face and only a pair of nasal pants, sat on the ground, because he, like many people who failed to escape the battlefield, had already become a prisoner of the court officials.

After all, the Daqi army horses who attacked the encirclement from the middle of Chang'an City, originally wanted to set up an ambush to take down the army coach Cui Anqian, but didn't want to be the back hand of the army who had won first and defeated.

As a result, among the troops that came out of the three roads, the men and horses who came out of Chunmingmen on the south road were the first to be defeated. Under the chase of the official Hu Qi, they either died or surrendered, or fled without a trace, most of them failed to return. Fled back to the city.

Then the ones who collapsed were the people on the north road who were surrounded by foreign aid from the official army and from the Chongxuan Gate of the Daming Palace; although they were led by the veteran Li Guang, who had always been good at fighting, they fought and walked to the Dragon Shouyuan. Move closer; but it's still hard to escape the desperate situation.

In the end, only a small group of troops took the initiative to turn, unexpectedly broke through the inside line of defense of the official army, and merged with the middle-passengers in frontal combat, and was able to temporarily get rid of the result of the collapse.

At this time, the brave warriors who came out in front of the Central Route Army even approached Cui An within twenty steps before diving, leaving the last thin battle line composed of archers and guards.

However, the new force that came from an official army recently was still a hundred steps far beyond a stone’s throw; therefore, at this moment, whether the official army or the rebel army has been beaten mad, the final courage and momentum have exploded. Come.

They were entangled together at all costs, grabbing the bowstrings in their hands, and flagging anything that could be used as weapons, even like the most primitive beasts, and they fought with their nails and teeth until they were completely dead.

However, it is a matter of life and death that is desperately disturbing each other. The heavens still favored the belonging of the officer and army a little, and a gust of wind and dust blowing from east to west affected the vision of the rebel warriors who were rushing forward.

Then, there is no more. Because they were within ten steps of the army of the officers and soldiers, they were pushed back back; then, in the exhaustion of exhaustion, they fell into disintegration layer by layer.

If it were not for the leader of the jumping army and the daring fighters, the general Tongzhou guard envoy Meng Juehai, who had already penetrated into the enemy line, threw a precise hand axe, and killed two sergeants who were holding arms together, causing Dazhen to suddenly fall over. Down

He also took the opportunity to shout "Cui An lurks and punishes", which caused a moment of confusion and stagnation in the offensive of the official army in the melee.

In the end, only Meng Juehai, who was seriously injured in the burst, was able to lead a small number of the most elite veterans who were used to fighting back to the edge of the city of Chang'an; and under the cover of the wall regardless of the cost, he successfully retreated after fighting and retreating. In the city.

As for the others, they can only become the corpses who have fallen across the wilderness and have their heads cut off one after another; or the prisoners of Zhao Ziri who are usually stripped naked and naked waiting to be sent off.

Of course, more people were able to escape into the countryside outside the city, and were temporarily hidden and concealed under the cover of night; however, under the pursuit and search of the follow-up officers and soldiers, their fate was also Can't afford to go anywhere.

After the daylight was fully illuminated, Zhao Ziri and others, who were increasingly hungry, smelling the scent of cooking fire from the temporary camp, finally ushered in the time to decide their own destiny.

Those officers and soldiers carrying knives, guns and crossbows, identified and guided their favorites in certain cowering figures, and quickly brought out the leader among them; and then pressed down in front of them. Cut off his head on the ground.

Then, some people tried to fight back to postpone the fate of being slaughtered like an animal; what was then called was that a few more arrows had been inserted into the body, and they continued to beheaded on the warm body of Yuzi.

This time, driven by a certain desire to survive, Zhao Ziri stood up desperately and shouted to the officers and soldiers: "I want to be anyway, I know Xundu people... I can work for the officers and soldiers... "

However, his confession was exchanged for a burst of laughter and ridicule with different accents, as well as the follow-up action of kicking his leg to the ground without hesitation.

"Don't kill me, I'm still useful to the court, I know a lot of the inside story of the thieves..."

Even if he yelled back and forth with exhaustion, he swung his thick-backed machete a few times without hesitation, and finally chopped it down.

However, there was a sudden violent sound, and a short gun was suddenly thrown to obliquely block and drive, and the root of Zhao Ziri's ears fell into the mud on the side of his cheek, and a large chunk was lifted. Then there was a later voice saying:

"Wait, let's listen to what he says..."

At this moment, Zhao Ziri, who had been on the verge of life and death, suddenly said to his heart:

"I also know those peaceful thieves in the south... This generation destroyed my home, engulfed my relatives, and fought against the court for the tiger."

Soon after eating and drinking, Zhao Ziri stood in front of the leaders of the rebel army whom he had identified, facing their various resentment, resentment, and threatening gazes. Then, he was relieved instead.

No matter how good the women and wealth in the capital are, can he still live his life? Then he did not hesitate to swipe the knife to the heads of the senior officials and colleagues who had enjoyed the same woman together, and hacked one after another. Down.

Suddenly, the blood surging from the head level was chopped off indiscriminately, splashing her all over her face, and it did not affect his will and determination. He just cut to the fifth person before being called to a halt.

And in the gatehouse of Chang'an City, there was a cry of exclamation; with the peeled armor, it was revealed that the general Meng Juehai, who was covered with dense blood spurting wounds, was suddenly in pain and exhaustion. 'S completely fainted.

At the same time, after crossing the Blue Sky Pass and expelling a small group of anti-insurgency elements occupying Lantian County, the third army general, Chai Ping, who formally introduced troops into the station, is slowly recalling the instructions of the chief governor before departure. Words:

"Now the Taiping Army's territory is big enough, it needs more time and manpower to absorb and digest it before it can be transformed into a usable potential power and basic disk."

"At least until the expanded training center system can train enough officials and students, occupying more space will only become a burden and burden for the Metropolitan Government; whether it is Jiangdong, Shannan, Xiajiang, it is also true. in this way.."

"There are not enough grassroots personnel to manage the locality and the military deterrence to maintain control will complement each other. It will only bring the soldiers to the site and the results of the painstaking bloodshed, and then give up to those ambitious speculators who take advantage of the opportunity to emerge. There are more branches in your career..."

"Therefore, the purpose of our troop dispatch this time is also very clear. It is neither a temporary gain or loss in the fight for and acquisition of land, population, and goods, nor a reputation and authority claim, but the focus is on how to combat and eliminate it. The vigorous force that is dead but not stiff;"

"Secondly, it is to support and support the rebel forces in the pass, and help them with the conditions and choices to help them through the current difficulties and crises; so as to continue to serve as a buffer and excess of the northern goodwill forces, and to rehabilitate and live together under the Taiping Army. Strength, gain more time."

"Naturally, if you have the opportunity, you can also declare our military's prestige and strength. Memories continue to spread the views and demands of our Taiping Army; in order to continue to win over and attract those who are truly insightful or minded among the rebels. A fellow man who wants to save the nation from the extinction..."

Only when they stopped in Lantian County, Chai Ping walked up to the gate tower to the north of Lantian County, and began to look at the Guanzhong land in the field of vision. He saw Maternity Yu Chen Duer hurriedly catching up with the city, and he whispered. Report:

"The Cao Niang Niang in Chang'an City is here..."

"It is said that the defenders of Gyeonggi had just suffered a major setback in the battle of Longshouqu in the north;"

"Today, the troops in the capital are very empty. I wish to invite our troops to station in order to help guard the three gates of Anhua, Mingde, and Qixia in the south..."

"And I am willing to provide the army's daily money, food, and military resources, but 100,000 pieces of silk are used as a reward and hard work."
