The Snowy Path of the Heroic Blade Chapter 141: The world is moving, welcoming the new year (Part 2)

In the eventful autumn season of the first year of Xiangfu, the battle on Guangling Road was really heartbreaking and slanderous. Yang Shenxing soldiers went out of Jizhou and was caught in the urn. Yan Zhenchun's 30,000 elite horsemen were annihilated. Although the ending was unbearable, but At any rate, the real swords and guns are facing the Western Chu rebels. In contrast, the twitching of a few Jingnan masters is simply ridiculous to the ruling and the opposition! After Huainan King Zhao Ying led his army, he drew up the slid mountain and stopped moving. After Jing'an King Zhaoxun’s 6,000 riders arrived at Hao'ao Lake, there was no movement. As for the first son of the Yanchi King, except on the way north. Ji Fei Gou jumped, really arrived in the south of Guangling Road, and simply disappeared completely. Dare to feel that your Highness didn't rush to Jing Nan, but swayed the autumn breeze to raise autumn fat?

However, in the next few days it will be the second year of Xiangfu. King Huainan’s dispatch of troops refreshed people’s spirits. Li Yang has greatly improved the frail and world-famous vassal king. The three levels of Donghuangyang, Xiaoxuan and Hate!

Among them, Song Wuyang, the guard of Huangyang Pass, had already participated in the rebellion and erected the **** flag at the pass, but the Huainan King Zhaoying lined up a mile outside the pass and drove out by himself, surrendering Song Wuyang, the latter ordered the city crossbow to shoot and kill , As a result, the deputy general Wang Xun suddenly drew his sword and killed him on the spot. After the King of Huainan, Wang Miao, with three thousand soldiers and horses as the vanguard, rushed to Xiaoxuan Pass overnight, and the guard Ji Yun was determined not to surrender. Zhao Ying ordered a forceful attack and personally supervised the battle. Wang Yu's pawns braved the arrow rain to fill the trenches first, and then set up a ladder to attack the city with ants attached. Two sieges, more than 500 people were killed in the battle. Zhao Ying did not allow Wang X to watch the battle. He ordered the pros and cons to start the siege. At dusk, a steady stream of crossbows, catapults, and crash trees rushed to the battlefield. The two sides fought **** battles until night fell, and Huainan stepped forward. Eight hundred people died in the city, Zhao Ying always held a whip and rode under the banner of Zhao, indifferent. At dawn on the second day, the siege began again. Zhao Ying's confidant general, Xia Ping, led the eighty first ascending soldiers to attack the top of the city. Wang Mo was angrily invited to fight, the ants clung to him, his iron armor embedded in six or seven feather arrows, was rubbed on his shoulders by the boulder, and smashed back to the ground. Falling to the ground, the guard risked his death and carried it back.

Zhao Ying, who wore that Ming Huang feudal king's python robe, looked at the fierce battle that was extremely glued. Her ears were filled with the wailing and screaming from the city head, as well as the sound of drumming beside her, of course. The cold wind blew the hunting sound of the Zhao character flag. This man named Zhao, who had always been the object of ridicule in the Liyang Dynasty, slowly raised his head and looked at the Zhao character embroidered on the flag. His lips were pursed, as if there was a This kind of burden for many years is finally relieved with a smile of relief.

The striker on the siege party was replaced with a fourth one, and the huge bed crossbow that could reach up to three hundred steps and still had considerable lethality also destroyed most of the crossbows on several crossbow stands in Xiaoxuanguan. The plane has no intensive crossbow arrows to shoot, scattered and no arrogance. However, the Xiaoxuan Pass, which coexisted with the city to the death, was still struggling, and its defense was fierce. It was filled with more than 2,000 five-inch and six-two nails, and the spikes with blades on all sides to increase the damage were all broken. The retracted Yasha and the foot of the car broke the thick ropes, but there were still brave armors on the head of the city dropping the "iron owl" composed of sharp iron hooks and long iron chains, and after throwing them fiercely, It can hook the armor and even the body of the siege soldier, just like fishing, and hang the hooked person in the air.

There are even more peculiar shapes of axe or barb or shovel to chop the arm of the climber.

Zhao Ying, who rode his horse a little closer to the battlefield, saw with his own eyes a soldier's entire arm being shoveled off, and that arm fell from the city head before the soldier.

Zhao Ying was indifferent to this, turning her horse's head indifferently.

The precarious Xiaoxuan Pass is urgent. Ji Yun had to ride out the East City Gate to ask for help. At this pass, he agreed that the two sides would attack the Huainan King’s Camp together in the early morning. When Xiaoxuan Pass, he would take the initiative to open the city gate and rush out to nourish the spirits. Ji Yun led the charge of the two hundred cavalry troops, and behind the cavalry were the only four hundred remaining in Xiaoxuanguan. Zhao Ying ordered his subordinates to lead ten elite scouts to hunt down, but he was injured and escaped. At Yinshi the next day, Ji Yunguo, who knew that Xiaoxuan’s attention would never be able to guard any longer, appeared mortal, and appeared at the gate of the city with two hundred cavalry. Regardless of whether he hated the master general for the rescue or not, he would fight to death for Da Chu. Ji Yun, who was in his prime, didn’t spare his life and didn’t know the current affairs. But when he was 20 years old, he didn’t show up his father who should have given him the crown, and he did not have a guest to celebrate. I added a cloth crown, because Ji Hai, a military commander of Great Chu, had already died on the battlefield, and the three uncles also died in battle one after another.

Sitting on the war horse, Ji Yun asked his subordinates to open the city gate and looked back at the faces illuminated by the torches. He didn't speak, just clasped his fists suddenly.

On this day, Ji Yun, the guardian of the Western Chu rebel Xiaoxuan, went out of the city to attack King Huainan at the time of Mao. It's just that the "Zhao Ying Army" seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and lined up in an orderly manner. In the three stages, the most cavalry hated this stage. In spite of the defensive order made by the main commander of the west front, Xie Xikui, the army was dispatched. Eight hundred cavalry and two thousand and five hundred infantry were rescued by fire. In the middle of the journey, the Pioneer Eight Hundred Horsemen suffered heavy casualties under the crossbow shooting. The army was destroyed when touched. The main general and the deputy general were shot and killed by the Huainan King Ranger in the chaos, leaving only the hatred of the old and weak remnants. Earlier, he replaced the banner of Zhao with a strange soldier, hated the infantry commander of this pass and led the seven hundred soldiers and horses to escape back to the city, and died of suicide.

After three charges, Ji Yun died of a feather arrow from Huainan King Zhaoying General Hou Datong, passing through his head and falling from a horse to death.

Xiaoxuanguan's two hundred riders and four hundred foot soldiers also all died in the battle.

Zhao Ying, wearing an eye-catching python robe, dismounted and walked past the corpses, slowly climbed to the top of the city, looked at the rising sun in the east, and said with a smile: "There is light at sunrise, Lao Qiu Ruyu."

The king of Huainan, who had succeeded in the three passes, did not deliver even a single victory to Tai'an City, and did not even occupy the dangerous and hate pass, one of the western gateways of Guangling Road. In fact, after breaking the pass, this feudal lord, He had no intention of dividing the troops to digest the victory. He just let the seriously injured Wang Li and his remnants stay at Huangyang Pass. After planting the Zhao character flag at the head of Sanguan City, he led all the Huainan Taoist soldiers to continue to the east. Yes, Bing Feng pointed directly at the treacherous and difficult Yaoyou Pass. Between the two passes of Hate and Yaoyou, it is a rare plain to the west of Guangling Road, which is densely covered with water.

After rectifying this stage of hate, King Huainan took all the horses that could be ridden and moved forward slowly. This posture seemed to be quietly waiting for the Da Chu West Line coach who rushed to Yaoyouguan, the genius general who made the entire Liyang Dynasty remember his name at a young age, Xie Xifeng.

Closer to the plains of Yaoyouguan, both sides have enough time to rectify and scout, and the two armies began to confront away. After Huainan King Zhaoying dismounted, he put on a delicate armor outside the python robe, and a treasure was kept on his back for many years. Quiver. The king surnamed Zhao, who was ridiculed as a great talent, was a poor worm who had been drunk and pretended to be silly all the time and was reprimanded many times by his son. This man has been childless after his eldest son died at Dantongguan "for no reason". Turning on her horse, Zhao Ying looked straight ahead and smiled at the two generals around him who had followed for many years: "Hou Datong, Yu Qianshan, Xia Ping are one step ahead of us, and let us die on the battlefield as we agreed when we were young. Now it's our turn. Three people. For so many years, you have lived so awkwardly."

Hou Datong laughed and said: "It's really awkward to live. It's so happy to die. Later, I have to kill a few more of the remnants of the Western Chu, and promise to be angry with Lao Xia, haha, forget that this guy is dead Up!"

Yu Qianshan is more like a gentleman shaking a feather fan than the rough-looking Hou Datong, but he is also armed with a sword and smiled and said: "You are happy, it's hard for me as a scholar."

Before ordering to start the charge, Zhao Ying closed her eyes and said softly: "Father, the sons and ministers are not filial, I have never had the opportunity to toast to the imperial tombs. Today, I will use blood instead of wine."

In front of Zhao Ying, King of Huainan, two thousand heavy armored infantry lined up to reject the horse, and each of the two wings of the infantry had a thousand fine horses, and nearly a thousand rangers swam far away, waiting for the opportunity.

On this day, except for the four thousand soldiers and horses recruited from all over Huainan Road, the confidants of King Zhao Ying and the two generals of Hou Datong Yu Qianshan, as well as all the guards, all fought to the death, and no one was behind. No one was hacked to death by the back of the Ranger.

On the same day, Jing’an King Zhao Xun, who was galloping from Haoao Lake all the way, arrived at the periphery of the battlefield at twilight. With the 1,000 heavy riders still, when he saw the body of Huainan King Zhao Ying being picked off by the Western Chu generals, the young king Zhao Xun still led his army to charge!

There were six thousand Qingzhou riders, and in the end only two hundred riders remained desperately guarding Zhao Xun to escape from the battlefield.

In this battle, the two kings who participated in Jingnan died and the other wounded.

At the time of the New Year, the Western Chu rebels' great victory at the secluded pass meant that the originally not heavy encirclement was widened, and the air leaked on both sides, which made it worse for the Liyang court. The former can happily say goodbye to the old and welcome the new. After Yan Zhenchun died in the war, the capital was once again covered with a heavy haze. Fortunately, after Yang Shenxing and Yan Zhenchun, another serious veteran who became famous in Chunqiu, after a long and open talk with coach Lu Shengxiang, led his troops to the south. The 30,000 troops approached the Qingyang Basin, not seeking a big defeat in Western Chu, but Strive to rescue the trapped Siwan Jinan **** of General Yang Shenxing.

General Lu Shengxiang, who had been stagnating at Youlu Pass, finally made some movement in the eyes of everyone, leading his army to march south along the plain of eastern Henan.

But the one thing that calms people's hearts most is not the mobilization of nearly 100,000 troops, but just because two people appeared in Tai'an City.

One was His Majesty the Emperor who sent Master Fu to prison after he returned to Beijing, and the other was General Gu Jiantang, a general who accompanied the emperor.

The monarch who once punished King Huainan for a trivial matter, after returning to Tai'an City, only issued two imperial edicts. The first one was to make Zhang Julu's death desolate and not to be given a posthumous title. The latter one is to let the king Zhao Ying die with great grief and honor, posthumously "Yi", and say "If I lose my share."

The New Year’s Pass is not easy, but after all, I have to cross it.

Tai'an City, the sound of firecrackers bid farewell to the old age, but compared to the past, it lacked that joyful atmosphere.

In this way, the Liyang court ushered in the second year of Xiangfu.

The first morning of the new year.

Emperor Zhao Dun is sitting on the dragon chair. This is the first time this emperor has been sitting north and facing south since he became king. He looked straight through the wide door of the palace and through the wide door of the palace. That unobstructed imperial road.

The emperor has listened to the world since he was to the south, and ruled toward the Ming.

Perhaps it was keenly aware that when the son was distracted today, the **** Song Tanglu, the **** in the palm of the hand, did not call out the phrase "If there is something to tell, there is nothing to leave the court."

The civil and military officials in the court hall and the courtiers outside the hall bowed their heads respectfully, narrowing their eyes, holding their breath and waiting quietly. Those elderly ministers who were miserable in the early court began to doze without a trace. .

The emperor slowly retracted his gaze bit by bit, from the imperial road that seemed to have no end to southern Xinjiang to the palace gate. The emperor clearly remembered that he had summoned the two generals who first destroyed Da Chu and then pacified Xishu. The elder lame is not hurried or slow, not because of the slowness of lameness, but a kind of looseness that walks on this road that is the most serious thing for a minister, but does not take it seriously. This People wear the famous Xu Jiadao that shook the world, and his approach step by step made him feel a sense of humiliation and suffocation.

The young man behind the lame is handsome, dressed in white, and he is really young. It makes people feel close to him, especially the new monarch who sits in the world, he can’t wait to lower his body. In the bottom of my heart, the new emperor believed that the first emperor could have the lame man to fight in the north and the south, so he himself should have a white soldier saint who was inexhaustible, and he could give as boldly as the first emperor. A young military commander with the greatest authority, the most soldiers and horses, led him to see him off, letting him let go of his hands and feet to raise the whip outside the barrier, and the monarchs and ministers joined forces to establish an unprecedented frontier power.

It was just that the young man in white refused that year. The emperor was disappointed but not angry.

Later, the emperor watched those young scholars who would shine in the future. In the morning light, they stepped into his sight with unconcealed restraint and excitement.

Yin Maochun, Zhao Youling, Bai Guo, Wang Xionggui, Zheng Zhenxian, Qian Youjian...

A dazzling array.

They jointly created the Spring of Yonghui in the Liyang Dynasty.

And they are destined to be with the widows in the ancient history.

In the dynasty meeting in the last year of Yonghui, there were no two unruly feudal kings Xu Xiao and Zhao Bing in the temple, but there were heroic generals such as Gu Jiantang, Yang Shenxing, and Yan Zhenchun, as well as Lu Sheng and Lu Baijie who had enough years. Young and strong generals to accumulate military exploits. There are aging leaders such as Zhang Julu, Huan Wen, Yao Baifeng, celebrities who are in their prime of life, such as Yin Maochun, and even those who seem to be inexhaustible.

The first emperor once deeply regretted that when he first aspired to the world, he was not able to use people everywhere.

But he is different from Zhao Dun, he really feels the pride of sitting on the country.

The emperor withdrew some eyes again and saw the gate of the palace.

That threshold is a crucial dragon gate that all officials in the world want to cross.

He watched with his own eyes an old civilian and military commander who was embroidered by the white pheasant or Xiong Feng, kneeling on the square outside the temple year after year, looking at the golden temple in the mouth of the common people, knelt until he lay down. After entering the coffin, I haven't been able to enter it yet.

I have seen many scenes where I wanted to laugh but tried to endure it. Some people were hungry and fainted and were carried away by the eunuch. Some people couldn’t hold back the urgency and were reprimanded by the present, and even tore them to grab the oiran the day before. Colleagues who broke their faces and elbowed each other secretly the next day. Someone was quietly yawning and was spotted by the emperor's eyes, jokingly and deliberately calling him to enter the hall to listen to the training. He remembered that the guy was not waiting for him, but was so scared that he lay on the ground with a fright. The seven-foot man kept kowtow. , The tears kept flowing. He asked for a question and learned that he was on duty at the Ministry of Housing Authority the night before and had barely slept for the night, so he allowed him to take a leave of absence and rest for a day. He also smiled and asked the head of the household to approve it. It was not Wang Xionggui at that time. Not to mention that Bai Guo sits in the position of Shangshu of the Household Department. The old Shangshu, who has always been known for his rigor, jokingly echoes, "Your Majesty Jinkou opens, and the ministers must be approved." Six years later, the household official went to Huainan Road. Gaosheng county guard, Lao Shangshu has long since returned to his hometown.

The emperor withdrew his sight again and placed it in the hall.

The chair of the old Xichu lady and teacher Sun Xiji is gone. This old man should be standing in front of the little girl in the Xichu imperial palace at the moment.

The emperor couldn’t talk of hatred for the old man. After several conversations between the monarch and his subjects, the emperor admired the old man’s knowledge and even privately stated that for the time being, only the water and soil of Western Chu could give the old man this unique aura. Nod sincerely for approval. Such an old man, even if he went to Xichu, the emperor felt that even if the imperial army pacified Guangling Road in the future, as long as the old man was willing to live, then the Liyang Dynasty should have the mind to let the old man enjoy his old age.

The emperor finally looked at the young man standing with his back to him, wearing a yellow python robe.

His son, Prince Zhao Zhuan.

The emperor is not dissatisfied with this son who has been in the country for some time.

Just looking at him, it is inevitable that he feels a little guilty for his eldest son Zhao Wu, so he plans to marry Zhao Wu who is said to be the most outstanding Chen Yuyuan at the border.

And jumping over the prince's head, the emperor saw a dazzling empty seat.

There is a doorman who has been standing there for some years to save Huanwen, and there is also a new Chinese book commander Qi Yanglong.

On the other side, there is Gu Jiantang from Dazhu Kingdom who returned from Liangliao.

That's the only one missing.

The emperor subconsciously clenched the armrest of the dragon chair with both hands.

He went to the imprisonment, but always stood far away, from late night to early morning, but didn't come close to face the man.

He was afraid, afraid that the purple-bearded blue-eyed child would be embarrassed in prison, and afraid that he would see the appearance of the current assistant in despair.

But the real fear in my heart is that this scholar named Zhang Julu is not at all depressed, he will only smile and call him Zhao Dun is a faint monarch!

The emperor, with his lips trembling slightly, quietly let go of his hand.

Song Tanglu said loudly almost at the same time: "If something is going on, let's go back to the court!"

————

In the cold night, a couple walked hand in hand in the silent palace of Wan Lai, and walked to a majestic hall. The glamorous man turned around to help his wife tighten the knot of the fox fur, and then looked up. To the top of the palace, he pointed his finger, and laughed softly: "Hearts shine, the monarch and his ministers share the autumn and the moon. The brothers share the same spirit. The brothers sit in the spring breeze. This is the friendship between the Emperor Xian and Xu Xiaoyang Tai Sui there."

The man leaned sideways and gently held his wife’s hands, bowed his head to help her breathe, and then said: “'The husband should be a male flying, and an Neng can do it?!' This is what Zhao Heng blurted out in front of the emperor when he was seven years old. I can’t tell. “There are four brothers who wish to be unharmed, the green mountains, the collection of books, the beauty and the elder brother.” This is what Zhao Yi said, so the world belongs to my elder brother, but I am happy to give him a Guangling Dao. When Zhao Bing was a teenager, he often claimed that he could hear the short sword on the bedside humming as dragons and tigers, but the older he became more taciturn, I sent him to Nanjiang and Beimang, nothing happened to him. As for Zhao Ying and Zhao Sui, I have never had much affection for them, but since Zhao Ying died well, I will not be stingy."

The man looked at his red-eyed wife and suddenly smiled, "I know, my time is running out."

His wife, Zhao Zhi, the queen of the mother's world, put her head lightly on his shoulder.

It's just Zhao Dun, not the emperor, stroking his wife's head, softly said: "I have no regrets in this life, I just feel that I have too little time with you. It's funny, maybe I face those cabinet ministers. It takes more time to face those memorials than to be by your side."

Zhao Zhi asked suddenly: "Remember our trick back then? At that time you were just the prince and I was the prince."

Zhao Dun laughed loudly, stepped back, and said solemnly: "The Queen Empress Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose."

Zhao Zhi also took a step back, "Long live your majesty, long live long live."

After a while, Zhao Dun covered his mouth, still coughing.

Zhao Zhi helped gently beat his back.

After Zhao Dun came over, squeezed her hand tightly, "Let's go."

Zhao Zhi said.

She said: "Your Majesty, do you know? I am very happy to be able to marry you. I am happier to be able to grow old with you."

"I know you always feel that you are not good-looking enough, but in fact, you can't look good anymore. Look, you all have white heads. I still don’t get bored. It’s exactly the same as when I saw you the first time. At first sight, I like it or not, and I will never dislike it again in this life."

"So you can say these love words too."

"Haha...love words will naturally be spoken, but I always thought that the best love words in the world is to walk with you to this day, and let you know that I like you more than love at first sight."

The woman who was holding her hands stopped, sobbed and sobbed, she didn't have the demeanor that a woman should have in the world.

He also stopped, trying to reach out and wipe her tears.

But he eventually fell to her.

She hugged him, although the tears were still there, her eyes were very firm, and she said in a low voice: "Whether you leave, you can finally rest at ease. I will help you look at this great country, and help you look at it. The seal on the dragon chair..."

————

Only two years into Xiangfu, there was a terrible news.

The beginning of the spring of the Liyang Dynasty, the whole country is plain.

It's a big city in Tai'an, and crying can be heard everywhere~IndoMTL.com~ Then, a young man surnamed Zhao who has been a prince for more than 20 years and who has only worn the prince’s python costume for a year, he wears it righteously. Putting on that dynasty's unique dress, the king is over the world.

The young king of a country wears a brand new dragon robe that fits perfectly.

Sit high in that chair.

When he bowed down and worshipped during the Manchu dynasty's civil and military tour, he looked into the distance with his expressionless face, like the emperors of the past.

The emperor should have raised his empty hand at this time, and said in a deep voice, "All the Qings are flat" without losing courtesy.

But he didn't rush to speak.

He squinted his eyes, admiring the black silhouette of kneeling down inside and outside the hall.

If he doesn't speak, no one can get up.

Because from now on, Emperor Liyang is his Zhao Zhuan!

He glanced at the northwest direction intentionally or unintentionally, the corners of his mouth curled slightly imperceptibly.
