Autumn is approaching, and the breath of summer has not been completely absorbed in Bianliang City.
For the people of Bianliang at this time, the sudden torrential rain could not cover up the warm and boiling emotions in the city. During this period of time, the news that most shocked and delighted the Wu Dynasty came from the north.
The Northern Expedition was victorious, Tong Guan’s army of 200,000 smashed Yanjing, and the sixteen states of Yanyun recovered most of them.
When the news came, two hundred years of humiliation and dreams finally showed the first ray of light. For the people of Bianliang, especially the Confucian students, it is a great joy for the whole world to celebrate. In such an atmosphere, relatively speaking, the defeat of the Liangshan bandits in the east of Shuibo was almost a trivial matter not worth mentioning. The national fortune is prosperous, and the heaven and the earth are synergistic at times. Under these circumstances, the bandits of the country will naturally collapse in the direction of the army, which is not worth mentioning.
Since the importance of breaking Liangshan is far lower than that of breaking Yanjing, after the news came, it was not widely publicized. In fact, the news of the Liangshan incident came before the Yanjing incident, but due to some of the joints, the procedures for dealing with it were temporarily postponed, and after that... there was no need for much publicity, as long as With the victory in Yanjing, everything else will be icing on the cake and eclipsed.
It was also in such an atmosphere that Su Tan'er led a kind of Su family and brought their nearly three-month-old child to Bianliang.
The group lived in the yard that Ning Yi had bought before. After a little bit of planning, the first person they visited was the right minister Qin Siyuan's family. As for the Qin family, she is not as familiar as Yunzhu and the Qin family, but Qin Siyuan, Mrs. Qin and others have attached great importance to Ning Yi, and the children they brought have also successfully opened a breakthrough in "diplomacy". The one-month-old little Ningxi is healthy and quite cute. Mrs. Qin was overjoyed when she saw it, and said that the child was smart and wanted to take him as a grandson, so that Su Taner would bring her children over to play more.
Naturally, part of the Qin family's love for Ning Xi came from Ning Yi, which is self-evident. But the glory of the child was originally linked to the mother. As the son of Ning's family, it would be no problem to inherit the mantle of Ning Yi and provoke the burden of the Ning family and the Su family in the future. Every compliment to him is also praised in Su Tan'er's heart. And after these homework, when Yu Yunniang told Su Tan'er the news of Ning Yi alone, she further explained the reason why the Qin family attached so much importance to Ning Yi.
From here, it took a month to smash Liangshan, killing tens of thousands of bandits in Liangshan to give their heads and surrender. For anyone, this is a dream-like record. Ning Yi's revenge is both fast and ruthless. For a woman, this is also the aura of the head of a family who can really be relied on, but as a pragmatic person, Su Tan'er can naturally understand the dangers involved. It was raining heavily outside the house, and in the bright yellow lights in the room, she listened to Yun Niang's words, the information that came, and when she reached out to cover her lips, her eyes were red.
"He, is he not injured?"
"Don't worry, I heard that I have never been injured. This time it is all up to him to strategize behind the scenes. It's just that the bandit leaders in Liangshan are still fleeing. I don't know how long it will take to cut them off. Come… "
"His methods are sharp and he will be regarded as a thorn in the eyes of bandits. Song Jiang and the others will sooner or later follow him. I just hope that he is fine..." Tan'er sat there, smiling and weeping. .
Yun Niang smiled and said a few words, and then said: "Recently, the most exciting thing in the house is the incident in Liangshan. My master always praises the case, if the situation in Yanjing is not tense, many things are imminent, this is the case. It was supposed to spread..."
"After all, the matter of Yanjing is more important..."
"Yanjing..." Yunniang smiled and looked at Tan'er for a moment, then shook her head and said softly: "The news may be pleasant to outsiders, but my master said that it was a group of bastards who made a There's nothing compared to Liheng's achievements. But this matter is still a secret, Tan'er is not an outsider, but don't mention it to others..."
In the atmosphere of celebration in Bianliang City, Yunniang and Tan'er casually mentioned this matter, feeling a little helpless. At this time, in the Qin Mansion or in the entire capital, very few people who knew the inside story did not necessarily have the same ecstatic emotions as others. Like the back study area of the Qin Mansion, the interior of the Secret Investigation Division.
At this time, Cheng Zhouhai had already left, and the people handling affairs here were Yao Zunian, Ji Kun, Monk Jue Ming, Wenren Buer and others. Occasionally, if someone sent a post from the Poetry Club to the monks Yao Zunian and Jue Ming in the room to celebrate the return of Yanjing, these two famous people in the literary and social circles of Bianliang were mostly a little bit lacking in interest. In fact, when they spoke, they all said that if Chengzhouhai was still there, they might yell at them, and even smash half of the tea set in the room.
In fact, after the initial news about Yanjing came, the always self-restrained monk Jue Ming smashed the tea set in front of him with a fist, almost smashing a set of purple sand tea set, and the fragments were embedded in his hand. , the blood has been flowing out, and the anger on his body at the same time is the temperament of his former royal family.
Whether they were born or entered the world, for these people, there are always some things and some emotions that cannot be escaped. And when various news came one after another, everyone was able to stabilize their emotions, but sighed occasionally: "It's always a good thing."
When the heavy rain fell, there was a person in the north, thousands of miles away, who, in a nightmare, was repeating everything about the Yanjing incident...
In the darkness, what lit up in front of him was a purgatory-like light. In the ancient and dark city in the night, the sound of killing boils out...
When he suddenly sat up from the bed, Pharmacist Guo's forehead was covered in cold sweat, the light was dim, and it was raining outside. He got off the bed, put on his clothes, gritted his teeth, and experienced everything that day in his heart.
In mid-May, Pharmacist Guo finally obtained the approval of Tong Guan and Liu Yanqing, and led the 6,000 elites in the grievance army to cooperate with Liu Yanqing's direct subordinates to surprise Yanjing. According to his understanding of the Liao Kingdom, the whole plan was serious and rigorous. The vanguard successfully sneaked into the city, broke open the city gate, and started a chaotic fight in the ancient capital of Yanjing.
At this point, the Liao people and the Jin Kingdom were fighting, and the army had no intention of fighting fiercely, especially when the Wu Dynasty army suddenly entered the capital of Liao, like the soldiers of the sky descending, the signal to everyone was that the fate of the Liao Kingdom was coming. During the initial success, Pharmacist Guo was overjoyed and sent someone to make Empress Dowager Xiao descend quickly. And Liu Yanqing was also overjoyed, announcing that the sword would not be blocked until the army entered the city. For Tong Guan, Liu Yanqing and others, the successive defeats in the Liao War required a great victory, and the generals and soldiers in the army also needed more encouragement. Such an order came from Liu Yanqing's mouth and from Tong Guan as well. of pride.
"Tong Mou leads the army, there are no other soldiers who use their lives, and I will never treat them badly if I sacrifice myself for me!"!
Under such orders, the order of the army of the Wu Dynasty gradually became disordered, and they began to burn and kill in the city. Guo Yaoshi was horrified and negotiated with this side, but he was immediately refuted: "How many people have been killed by the Liao people in the Wu Dynasty in the past 100 years, Yaoshi, you only belong to my Wu Dynasty, you don't know the depth of the hatred among them, you don't know about this matter. If you talk a lot, be careful if you talk too much, you will lose. In short, the situation has been decided, so what can you do if you let the soldiers vent. Hahahaha…”
Although the Liao people were already at the end of their powers, the men in the north were still somewhat martial and bloody. The next day, the resistance in Yanjing gradually became stronger. Although Empress Dowager Xiao is female, she has a strong temperament. She took this opportunity to send a blood letter to the wealthy family in the city and cried, and then seized the city gate. Instead of driving the Wu Dynasty army out of the city, she closed the city gate to die with the Wu Dynasty army, and fought to the death. . In such a battle situation, Guo Yaoshi and others actually still had the upper hand, but Liu Xingshi's troops, who were originally scheduled to lead the army over, never arrived.
On the third day of the war, Xiao Gan, the king of the Northern Academy, led his army to return to Yanjing, and with the grievances of the city, he killed Guo Yaoshi and others out of the city in the form of mourning soldiers. At this time, the resentful army still has the strength to fight. Guo Yaoshi is a famous general and has been waiting for the arrival of Liu Xingshi's main force. He knows that once the collapse is formed, it will be irreversible, and he persuades thousands of people directly under Liu Yanqing to fight with him. Do it, even if you fight and retreat, you can still fight after the main force arrives.
The other side nodded in agreement, and then touched Xiao Gan Bingfeng, the entire army collapsed. Guo Yaoshi could only stare in awe as these elites of the Wu Dynasty scrambled to flee, and such fleeing also dragged down the morale of the resentful army. The morale of Xiao Qianyi was really like a rainbow at the time, which was quite terrifying. The resentful army in front of him was like a sand castle under a huge wave. Guo Yaoshi was still trying to organize an orderly retreat at this time, thinking that he would save his strength, but the sporadic resistance finally gave the Wu Dynasty army a little time to collapse. On the battlefield, when he faced the terrifying King of the North Court again, he was almost beheaded by the opponent's sword. Many old brothers were protecting him and fleeing all the way. Fortunately, he was never caught.
Liu Xingshi's main force, tens of thousands of people, arrived late at this time. Seeing that the friendly army had already dispersed, these tens of thousands of people were also scattered by Xiao Gan, who was chasing him all the way. Tong Guan, who was in the back, knew that the defeat was on the way, so he did not choose to resist, but turned around and retreated all the way, saving the entire Northern Expedition.
During the entire battle, when the 6,000-odd people of the resentful army returned, there were only 1,000 people left, plus the 2,000-odd people who defended the formation, and the 8,000 brothers who originally surrendered to the Wu Dynasty were now only 3,000. The military of the Wu Dynasty was evasive and looking for responsibility. According to the statement of the civil servants, after the war, they would find the reason for their defeat, and then they could win the next time. In the midst of this hustle and bustle, Guanze just reassured the soldiers and put them aside.
Pharmacist Guo originally thought that these guys were going to take the blame army to bear the blame, but Tong Guan's methods were beautiful. After losing the battle, he immediately contacted Jurchen, and he did not know what conditions he agreed to. After that, the golden man sent troops, drove straight ahead, broke through Yanjing, burned, killed, and looted, and then handed over a ruined city to the Wu Dynasty. When Pharmacist Guo really reacted, Tong Guan had already sent the news of Yanjing's great victory back to the south, and began to publicize this inescapable achievement.
Regarding the disposal of the resentful army, in the heavy rain this day, the imperial decree came: "...there is a part of Guo Yaoshi Changsheng's army, in the attack of Yanjing, to move forward and make great contributions, today is special. Appointed Pharmacist Guo as the military governor of Wutai Ying, and added...
A large number of gifts and titles were placed in front of Pharmacist Guo at this time. In Pharmacist Guo's dazed eyes, Liu Xingshi, who was also promoted and made a fortune, came over with a smile and got close to Pharmacist Guo. That night, a banquet was held in Changsheng's army, and Liu Xingshi and Guo Yaoshi were drunk before leaving. Liu Xingshi expressed guilt for his delay in the army's northward march, but also explained in detail that the military of the Wu Dynasty was not so good. quick. At this time, everyone had awards, promotions and fortunes. Only then did he have the face to come to see Pharmacist Guo, and apologized. At the same time, he said sincerely that the Wu Dynasty regarded Pharmacist Guo as a good man, and he was very good at fighting. !
For Liu Xingshi, this may be the best attitude to show his favor to Pharmacist Guo.
After sending Liu Xingshi away, the sky was dark and the rain was still falling. Guo Yaoshi held the imperial edict and stood outside the tent, watching the heavy rain fall on him. The two surviving old brothers around him knew that he had been brooding over Yanjing's defeat recently, so they came to comfort him, and said, "This is a good thing, I finally let go of my heart, and then we can recruit more troops. ."
"Tong Shumi still has a conscience, and finally did not forget us..."
As the two said this, the drunk Guo Yaoshi stared at them with red eyes, gradually shaking with the imperial decree, gritted his teeth, and wanted to throw it into the rain, but he finally didn't dare. He waved his hand heavily, looked at the darkness in the rain curtain, and stretched his finger for a while.
"We have more than five thousand brothers, I originally, I originally took you..." He murmured in his mouth, and finally burst into tears in the rain, and shouted out, "Wang! Eight! Egg!
The voice echoed in the rain.
This day is the thirteenth day of the seventh month in the reign of Jinghan in the Wu Dynasty. At the same time, at Zhanjia Ao, Yunzhou, thousands of miles to the south, more than 3,000 people from Liangshan were rushing down the hillside, surging towards the camp set up by the Dulonggang people.
Far away in Shandong, Ning Yi could not immediately know the situation in the north, and he was not interested for the time being. When I woke up from the dream, my heart was a little tired, and some small figures said goodbye to him forever in that dream. Even though I knew that most of the things in the dream were my own wishful thinking, at this time, I still couldn't help being faintly confused. emotions flooded my mind. It was still raining heavily outside, but the sky was about to dawn. Since it was difficult to travel between these heavy rains, everyone had to rest at the inn on the way, and more than 200 people walked fast or slow, and the first batch had cars and cars. More than 30 people on the horse are walking in the front, and the rest have to find a place to settle in the back.
Ning Yi left the carriage. It was the backyard of the inn. He slept soundly, and everyone didn't even call him. Lonely lanterns hang under the eaves of the heavy rain. In the darkness of the heavy rain, the inn has actually fallen asleep. Some of the entourage will find a place to sleep in the rudimentary hall or under the eaves of the inn. Ning Yi went up to the second floor to find a place to sit, watching the rain blowing the cool wind this night, waiting for Zhu Biao and others to wake up and tell him about the green forest masters and various situations that they will encounter in the past...
