I thought that after getting close to the Maolong area, it would take some careful thinking to sneak into the south, but Xu Beizhi soon realized that the situation was unexpected. Tens of thousands of refugees began to move wildly along the two sides of the post road, and many of them were fresh clothes and angry. Horse luxury cars, there are a few post roads in Beimang that are not allowed to set foot outside the army and horses according to the law, and those who violate it will not be waited for. Many clan children have already used their wealth and lives to verify the determination of the Beimang Empress, so even if they flee in a hurry, they are not bold. The Heng family dared to step on the post road. Fortunately, there was a huge flow of people, and two flat paths had already been stepped on both sides of the post road. The carriages and horses passed without hindrance, but they were only driving slowly. And then, behind him, there were other iron cavalry from the military town galloping to the south. Xu Beizhi ordered an accompanying captain of the Jianling cavalry to inquire about the news, and only then did he get an answer that made him even more dumbfounded. Under the premise of leading 90,000 fine cavalry to confront the Beiliang army, a Beiliang iron cavalry directly pierced through the emergency line of defense and stabbed directly at the capital of the Southern Dynasty. The three great generals should be treated as nothing, and the two holding festivals should be regarded as decorations, and all the civil and military officials in the temples of the Southern Dynasties should be given to a nest! I have always rode north and south, so I have such courage.
Since this undetermined number of cavalry troops are all white horses and white armors, they are undoubtedly the heavy snow dragon cavalry. Its movement has caused Huang Songpu's defense line to loosen even more. Your Majesty, it is presumed that it was the insidious handwriting of the siege and reinforcements in the Battle of Hulukou, and there are many military towns behind him, and they are not soft persimmons that will rot when stepped on. They just dispatched 20,000 Qingqi to chase them away, and they are strictly prohibited. Take the initiative to attack, put more attention on building the defense line and keeping a close eye on the remaining Beiliang iron cavalry, and for the first time, as the king of the Southern Court, who many dignitaries in the Southern Dynasty do not take seriously, gave Gu Sai The two states of Longyao issued two military deployments with no room for wording.
The people in the southern part of the Southern Dynasties didn't care whether the generals were considered exhaustive, whether they had a plan, whether they would kill the barbarians in the north afterward, they only heard that as long as the horseshoes of those barbarians entered the city, they would massacre the city. Until the slaughter became an empty city, I heard that even a sharp weapon like the Beiliang Dao was beheaded and wrinkled, and the 10,000 dragon elephant army was already so fierce. It's not enough for someone's teeth, let alone Xu Rentu's 30,000 pro-army? If King Xu Yan came to Beimang in person, can we ordinary people drown that person with saliva? Who the hell promised us that as long as the Beimang Iron Cavalry is willing to go south to fight, they can fill the Ganliang River with the corpses of 300,000 soldiers in Beiliang, and pile them into an unprecedentedly huge Jingguan? What kind of son of a bitch dares to fool us in front of us like this, and insists on punching him so hard that his teeth are all over the floor!
Holding the curtain, Xu Beizhi smiled and introduced to Xu Fengnian a cavalry army with an unusually dignified expression: "It's soldiers and horses from Huangxian Town, and the general in command is named Gu Mingluo. Yu Ding, no one is pleasing to the eye. It seems that you are really frightened. The expression of the cavalry is similar to that of going to death generously. A few years ago, when mentioning the Beiliang Army, they all squinted and curled their lips."
Xu Fengnian said flatly: "Yelang is arrogant."
Xu Beizhi laughed and said, "What about me?"
Xu Fengnian frowned and said: "When you arrive in Beiliang, don't always talk about your Beiliang. Beiliang is xenophobic. The military and officialdom are similar. I don't want to talk about the pros and cons of this stubborn habit. In short, you should take it easy. "
Xu Beizhi nodded and said, "I have my own calculations."
Xu Fengnian said to himself: "Isn't it really going to go to the temple of the Southern Dynasty in one go? This must have eaten tens of thousands of catties of bear heart and leopard guts. Who can lead the soldiers? It doesn't look like Yuan Zuozong's style."
Xu Beizhi hesitated for a moment, then said slowly: "Have you noticed that Beiliang is a bit like the fields at the southern foot of Rouran Mountain that we saw?"
Xu Fengnian asked: "You don't want to pick up?"
Xu Beizhi said slowly: "The six adopted sons of the King of Beiliang, needless to say, Chen Zhibao, he can crack the earth and seal the king anywhere. With his talent, he can do it himself. Yuan Zuozong is a well-deserved general. Difficult, leading tens of thousands of elite soldiers can easily destroy the city and pull out the stronghold, but it is difficult to command the overall situation. When Qi is in charge, he is just a reckless man who carries the Xu Ziwang banner. Ye Xizhen is good at conspiracy and is known as the next Yang talent Zhao Changling, in the final analysis, is still a counselor who shakes the feather fan behind the scenes, and needs to be attached to others. Yao Jian is a Feng Shui master who is familiar with partial sects, and has always been indifferent to the world, let alone talk about it. Chu Lushan's words... "
Xu Fengnian smiled and said: "Among Xu Xiao's six adopted sons, if anyone can barely stand shoulder to shoulder with Chen Zhibao, he is the only one. He is a real all-rounder. As long as he knows it, he is proficient in everything. My master is only because of Zhao Changling. If the reputation is not obvious, Chu Qiuer and Chen Zhibao are also in the same situation."
Xu Beizhi continued: "Wei Fu Chengdian, Ning Emei, and the group of young and strong generals are far behind Chen Zhibao, not to mention that there are very few people who lean towards you, His Royal Highness. So, apart from Chen Zhibao and Chu Lushan, the North There is really no third place among the amazing generals who can compete against Dong Zhuo and his ilk alone."
Xu Fengnian smiled without saying a word.
Xu Beizhi asked: "Is there anyone else hiding?"
Xu Fengnian laughed loudly and said, "You forgot my second sister?"
Xu Beizhi half-believingly said: "You also know that talking about soldiers on paper and leading them in person are two different things."
Xu Fengnian's expression changed drastically, and he clenched his fists tightly, because he knew who led the Snow Dragon Rider to Nanjing Mansion.
Xu Beizhi knew how to comprehend the truth, and immediately guessed the truth, and said bitterly: "If she can return to Beiliang alive, I will be convinced."
Elder Xu Feng exhaled, frowned, leaned against the wall of the car with his eyes closed, and said with a smile: "Then you can be convinced now, my second sister has remembered all the military towns of Wubao and tribal villages in Beimang before she was fourteen years old. And the station beacon."
Xu Beizhi deliberated carefully in his heart, then shook his head vigorously, held back for a long time before asking: "Why?"
Xu Fengnian rubbed his face, and said softly: "When I was young, she made a bet with my eldest sister. The second sister said that she would lead soldiers to Nanjing Mansion before she was thirty. Their bets were a book of war and a book of war. A box of rouge."
Xu Beizhi snorted coldly: "How can a major military situation be trifling?! The marching route of the Dragon Elephant Army has clearly been accurately calculated by masters in the art of war. Using military losses to win the general situation can be regarded as buying time for you. Your second sister counts What?"
Xu Fengnian joked: "You have the guts to ask her yourself next time you see her. Anyway, I don't dare."
Xu Beizhi was stunned for a moment, "You dare to go to the weak water and kill the fifth raccoon dog, but you dare not see your second sister?"
Xu Fengnian sighed and felt a headache.
In the beginning when I was practicing swords, I met her without talking, but this time I made a big circle in Beimang, why should I be chased and hacked by her with a sword
※※※※
That cavalry army went deep into the hinterland, like a butcher undoing an ox, bypassing many military towns and dangerous passes, tearing out an excellent curve on the territory of Beimang at the fastest speed.
The speed, the strength of the battle, and the clarity of the goal are all beyond the limit of imagination of everyone in Beimang.
The first rider wore armor instead of a helmet, and the majestic outline of the largest city in the Northern Mang and Southern Dynasties appeared in the young woman's field of vision.
The eyes of Jiuqian Qingqi behind him were full of crazy and fiery admiration.
I never knew that war could be fought like this, like a big man wandering around his home, and rewarding a disobedient child who has no power to fight back with a chestnut.
Before each contact battle, as she said, when, where and how many soldiers and horses would confront each other. Because they bypassed all the hard bones, and with the military strength of the Daxue Dragonriders leading the world, it was effortless to clean them up.
Dare she be the hostess of this place in the Southern Dynasty
It's easy to go north all the way, but then turn around and go south is a tough battle!
But I have even seen the gate of Nanjing Mansion, so I am afraid of you grandchildren
A woman's appearance is not considered overwhelming, but her heroism is extraordinary, and there is absolutely no trace of charm and tenderness in her temperament.
After she got off the horse, she took out a yellowed book from her bosom, lit the fire and burned the folds to ashes, looked up at the sky, moved her lips slightly, and then got on the horse silently.
※※※※
The heavy snow in Beiliang's winters has always fallen heartily, unlike the south, which makes the children who have recently settled in this barren and desolate land very happy. How much iron mines, war horses, food How much, anyway, is not something they can touch. Among the four children, the eldest daughter is not particularly outstanding. She likes rouge and gouache like ordinary girls, but she has a hot temper. She swings like that, and she is not as reserved as ordinary ladies. The second child is the most intelligent, and has been regarded as a child prodigy since childhood. He can read and write very quickly, and has a restrained temperament. They all say that he is like her mother. The third child looks the most like his magnificent mother, a typical lucky northerner and southern prime minister, which is very consistent with his status that was destined to be extremely noble from birth. Maybe it's because the luck of the descendants of this family has been used up on the first three children, and the fourth son who was born and raised in Beiliang is a bit pitiful, just like the land in his hometown, he hasn't cried since he was born in the womb. After being able to walk, he is also naive and silly, withered, yellow and thin, and there are often two snots hanging from his nose, which are mixed with saliva. Everyone in the house also thinks that the mistress died because he gave birth to him. The master loves it from the bottom of his heart, but he has a bad feeling for the strong fourth brother. The brave young servant will bully him a few times when no one is around. Anyway, the little guy is like a brass and iron bone, and he is not afraid of being pinched. , even a few slaps in the face, as long as the stewards don't bump into him, it doesn't matter.
Twelve-year-old Xu Weixiong's study room is spotless and orderly, without any superfluous decorative items, except for the four treasures of the study, there are only a vast number of books covering hundreds of schools, and every book placed in the bookcase is meticulously circled with a Chinese ink brush painted. Today she is writing the word "Yong" meticulously. The second daughter of Beiliang Prince's Mansion admits that she is good at everything, but calligraphy is really unsightly. Words, it's nothing more than my younger brother, how can I lose to her? ! She has long been familiar with the true meaning of calligraphy, and she doesn't need others to teach her. She knows how to be proficient in straight writing, but when it comes to her writing, it is always twisted like an earthworm. Xu Weixiong, who wrote no less than three thousand words this autumn, was also a little annoyed.
An extremely handsome boy with red lips and white teeth brought a "corpse" a little smaller than him to the study.
Xu Weixiong slightly raised the corners of his eyes and ignored him.
The luxuriously dressed child put down the corpse, laughed and said, "Huang Man'er, we're here."
The "corpse" lying on the ground immediately stood up like a carp after hearing the sound, grinning naively, hanging two slugs, and drooling a lot.
This pair of brothers is Xu Fengnian and Xu Longxiang.
Huang Man'er likes to be dragged by his brother, and also likes to be thrown headlong into the snow by his brother on a snowy day. His whole head is cold and cold, which is very comfortable!
Xu Fengnian reached out to help his younger brother carefully wipe off the snot and saliva, then wiped it on his cuffs randomly, pointed to a bottle of seismograph in the study with a dragon head facing a big-mouthed toad, patted Huang Man'er on the head and said with a smile: "Go, play with toads!" Go, remember not to break it this time, and I won't help you when the second sister chases people away."
The withered yellow child obediently went to squat quietly next to the big bottle, this time he did not secretly pull out the toad that was squatting on the ground to receive the copper ball.
Xu Fengnian lay on the desk and yelled: "Second sister, you are still practicing calligraphy, what are you practicing, let's go fishing by the lake, the eldest sister has already set up the embroidery bench there."
Xu Weixiong, who already had a girl embryo, didn't even look at his younger brother Xu Fengnian.
Xu Fengnian scratched his head and said helplessly, "You really don't want to go?"
Xu Weixiong said impatiently: "Write another 60 Yong characters, and I still need to study."
Xu Fengnian, who was used to it, snorted, grinned, grabbed the pen, spread out a large sheet of familiar calligraphy, and wrote dozens of scrawled Yong characters in one breath, and then returned the pen to the second sister, "Look, you It’s all done, let’s go play together.”
Xu Weixiong glared angrily, while the young prince of Beiliang Palace whistled, not caring at all.
Xu Weixiong put down his pen and snorted coldly, "Just two quarters of an hour."
Xu Fengnian smiled and said, "Okay!"
The three siblings walked out of the study together, and of course Huang Man'er was dragged out by his brother.
Xu Fengnian asked: "Second Sister, when will it snow?"
Xu Weixiong frowned and said, "It's just the first frost, and the beginning of winter hasn't arrived yet. Besides, this year, there may be snow a few days after the light snow."
Xu Fengnian made a grimace, "Second sister, you are so smart, why don't you let the snow fall earlier?"
Xu Weixiong stretched out his hand to pinch Xiao Shizi's ear, and twisted it hard.
This year, the first snow in Beiliang really came three days after the light snow.
The two girls and their two younger brothers had a snowball fight together. It was Xu Fengnian who persuaded the second sister to play with her by talking and abducting her from the study. Of course, he and the second sister played together. I told my brother that only snowballs are allowed to be pinched and not thrown. In addition, under the command of the second sister Xu Weixiong, Xu Fengnian played very well. I stuffed a snowball into Xu Fengnian's collar, and he was satisfied. Xu Fengnian grinned and took out snow from his clothes, and said to his second sister: "Let's go to Chaoge to enjoy the scenery, how about?"
Xu Weixiong refused without hesitation: "No, I want to study."
Xu Zhihu helped his younger brother take out the snow, and said with a smile: "It's enough for a girl to marry a good man. You have read so many military books, do you still want to be a general?"
Xu Weixiong glanced at this elder sister who had been an enemy since childhood, turned around and left without bothering to speak.
Xu Zhihu made a grimace at his sister's back, Xu Weixiong seemed to have eyes behind his back, his figure paused, turned his head and said coldly: "How long do you think Xu Fengnian can play?"
Xu Zhihu frowned, and asked with his hips akimbo: "You know?"
Seeing that something was wrong, if he stayed any longer, he would be affected by Chi Yu, so Xu Fengnian pulled Huang Man'er and hurriedly fled from this battlefield.
Afterwards he found out that the two sisters had made a bet.
That year, the snow in Beiliang was exceptionally heavy.
Xiao Shizi almost thought that God was an old farmer who raised geese, otherwise he could have so many "goose feathers" in the snow
※※※※
Xu Fengnian entered Maolong Army Town in a carriage led by a man in a black robe. The taciturn man acted as a groom himself.
Mao Long, who was patrolling the city at every step, stood still solemnly when he saw the man's token.
General Order.
There are 300,000 iron cavalry in such a large Beiliang, and there are only nine in total.
The general's six adoptive sons each have one, and the remaining three are in the hands of unknown persons.
Xu Fengnian recognized the general's order, and also recognized the identity of the groom.
There is only one title, ugly.
One of Xu Xiao's earthly branch dead men.
In the battle at the concubine's tomb, not only Yuan Zuozong survived, but also this dead man.
The people he killed were not much less than Bai Xiong Yuan Zuozong.
Xu Fengnian didn't reveal his status as the heir, he went to stay at the general's mansion in Maolongjun Town, but chose a secluded inn to stay in. The innkeeper and the staff had already fled for their lives, but with the blue bird by his side, it was not Xu Fengnian's turn to do anything, so everything was comfortable.
Xu Fengnian said that if he stayed here for a few more days, Chou would naturally have no objection.
When this hard-hearted dead man first met His Royal Highness, he also had a momentary loss of consciousness.
When writing the four characters in the secret letter, his hands were trembling slightly.
The son is bald.
After waiting for three days, Xu Fengnian left the city and headed south.
This carriage has not yet reached Ligujun Town.
A burst of iron hooves shook the ground.
No less than 5,000 white horses and iron cavalry rushed in like a line of heavy snow.
Xu Fengnian walked out of the carriage with a wry smile, and faced the cavalry who were chasing after him.
The first horse galloped, and then slowed down. The woman rode the horse to a dozen steps away from Xu Fengnian, and looked down at him coldly.
She originally had too many words of reprimand hidden in her belly, and even thought of giving him a few horsewhips, and then tied him up to Beiliang, but when she saw the strange scene in front of her, this man who entered Beimang felt as if he had entered no one's house. The lips of the martial arts woman in the environment trembled, and she couldn't utter a word.
Xu Fengnian hesitated to speak.
She raised her whip, pointed at Xu Fengnian, and said angrily, "Xu Fengnian, you will die in Beimang if you have the ability!"
She turned the horse's head and galloped out.
After she turned her back to the white-haired man, her vision blurred and she covered her heart with one hand.
Xu Fengnian stood there blankly, looked up at the sky, and stretched out his hand to cover the glare of the sun.
Such as snow cavalry come and go in a hurry.
Xu Fengnian was about to return to the carriage when a barefoot boy in black fell obliquely from the sky and made a huge hole.
Xu Beizhi, who walked out of the carriage station and stood beside the horse, opened his mouth wide.
The black-clothed boy originally had a silly smile on his face, and looked at his brother foolishly. He burst into tears immediately, and then let out a roar towards the north. Xu Beizhi covered his ears and couldn't bear it. The two horses even bled to death on the spot. If Xu Beizhi hadn't With the dead man Chou holding his arm, the fate is not much better. Only Xu Fengnian, who had already lost the big yellow court, did not suffer at all.
The black-clothed boy squatted down and picked up his elder brother who he thought was seriously injured, thinking about carrying it home like this.
Xu Fengnian patted Huang Man'er's head and said with a smile: "I'm fine, you go and stop the second sister first, don't let her lead the troops northward."
Huang Man'er shook his head vigorously.
The sky and the earth are big, and they are not as big as his brother who is protecting his back.
Xu Fengnian said patiently: "Be good, let the three of us go home together."
Just when Huang Man'er was carefully letting go of Xu Fengnian, Yiqi returned.
