Chapter 28 Oneness

In the bloody battle of Huangmei, Wang Xianzhi died magnificently, and his bravery shocked the Tang army present. For a long time, Zeng Yuanyu said: "Xianzhi, the leader of the thief, has died. The purpose of the war is to eliminate the war. I have been ordered to suppress the thieves, and the ultimate purpose is to protect the people. I decided to leave Wang Xianzhi as a whole body. After all, he was also a man, but he chose the wrong path. Just set up a grave for him next to this ancient pine, not a monument. Tang will make statements one after another and agree to this way of disposal. Zeng Yuanyu then ordered to clean up the battlefield, and each department returned to its own jurisdiction.

A few volunteers who broke out of the siege went through hardships to find their own team, some went to Qilu to look for the Huangchao Uprising Army, and some went to the area of Lushan to look for Chaicun and Shang Rang people. Soon, Huang Chao, a garrison in Puzhou, learned the news of Wang Xianzhi's death. He was so sad and indignant that he cried all day long and vowed to avenge Xianzhi and recover blood debts for the sacrificed righteous soldiers. Cao Min and the generals advised each other bitterly, and Huang Chaofang slowly calmed down and began to plan the military.

Huang Chao ordered that in addition to leaving a few volunteers to contain Cao Quanyu and other troops in Qilu, most of the troops will be sent to Haozhou, and notified Qiao Qi and Niu Feng, who were stationed in Kuangcheng, to lead their troops south to Haozhou to meet, sending Huang Siye to lead 500 light riders, and rush to the area of Qilu Mountain day and night, hoping that Chai Cun and Shang Rang's team will go to Haozhou to meet and the whole army. Pay tribute to Wang Xianzhi and the fallen soldiers, and discuss the major events of the decisive battle with the Tang army in the Central Plains.

After Yue Lingfei led his army to break through the siege, he went straight to the area of the mountain, and soon found the rebels of Chai Cun, Shang Rang and Zhao Zhang. Chai Cun and others quickly arranged the rest of Yue Lingfei and treated the wounded volunteers. After more than half a month, the people brought back by Yue Lingfei have basically regained their vitality and can be trained normally. The Rebels in the Lulan Mountain area, under the leadership of Chai Cun and others, have also developed well a few days ago. In addition, there are 100,000 people and horses brought back by Yue Lingfei.

One day, Chai Cun, Shang Rang, Yue Lingfei, Zhao Zhang and others discussed the next military action in the cottage hall. A volunteer came to report: "Generals, there is a sentinel at the foot of the mountain, all riding horses, asking us to report that it was Huang Siye for a meeting." Chai Cun smiled and said, "Siye is coming. Please come quickly!"

As soon as Huang Siye entered the village gate, Chai Cun and others personally walked out of the hall to greet each other. Chai Cun took Huang Siye's hand and said enthusiastically, "Siye, I heard that Brother Huang played well in Qilu. Where is your army now?"

Huang Siye said, "Uncle heard the news of the death of General Xianzhi, crying day and night. Now he leads the army to advance to Haozhou and join Meng Kai. When they arrived in Haozhou, the three armies commemorated General Xianzhi and planned a major battle with the Tang army in the Central Plains. This time, I want to inform you that you will lead your troops to Haozhou to fight with us, so that we have a greater chance of winning the Battle of the Central Plains.

Chai Cun listened and meditated without saying a word. Shang Rang said, "It's a matter of great importance to meet in Haozhou. Brother Xianzhi told us before his death that if he died one day, all the rest of them would be included in the team of Brother Huang Chao and be under the unified command of Brother Huang Chao. I think now is the right time. Chai Cun said slowly, "Of course, we will not hesitate to do what Brother Xianzhi said, but we have been operating in Lushan for a long time. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack here. This time, our army will meet Brother Huang in Haozhou. Lushan must send a strong general to guard it, which is not a small matter."

Zhao Zhang stood up, patted his chest, and said, "I lead 30,000 horses to guard the bald mountain, and the rest of the people will be taken to Haozhou to discuss the major events of the Central Plains Battle." Hearing this, Chai Cun took a step forward, held Zhao Zhang's hands tightly, and said, "With you defending the bald mountain, I am relieved that the Zhao Zhang brothers are brave and resourceful, but they can take this important task. I think this is good. Do you have any other opinions? The generals listened and had no objection.

A few days later, Chai Cun, Shang Rang, Yue Lingfei, Huang Siye and others led 70,000 troops to march to Haozhou. Chai Cun wanted to arrange a leading force to spy on the movements of the Tang army to ensure the safety of the march of the army. Yue Lingfei volunteered to be the pioneer of the way. Chai Cun allocated 10,000 horses to Yue Lingfei and asked him to be careful. Yue Lingfei answered and took the people and horses to search in the direction of Haozhou.

One day, Yue Lingfei led his troops to a Grand Canyon, but saw the steep peaks on both sides of the canyon, ancient trees, and rocks standing. The huge stone at the bottom of the canyon is Leilei, and the stream is tinkling. Yue Lingfei saw that the terrain was dangerous and was worried that Zeng Yuanyu would send troops to ambush here, so he ordered the army to camp in place. He decided to send a reconnaissance team to check the situation nearby.

Xiao Lu said to Yue Lingfei, "Brother Yue, just let me find out. I promise to complete the task!" Yue Lingfei looked at Xiao Lu's resolute face, nodded with approval, and thought: Brother Xianzhi entrusted Xiao Lu to me, and it could be seen that he valued Xiao Lu very much. Although Xiaolu is young, he is very sensible and brave. Cultivate him well and he will definitely become a general in the future. Yue Lingfei said to Xiao Lu, "Xiao Lu, I have allocated 100 light cavalry for you. You lead it. You search carefully and come back to report to me as soon as there is a situation!" Xiao Lu straightened up and said loudly, "Brother Yue, don't worry, Xiao Lu will definitely complete the task!"

Xiao Lu took this hundred light cavalry to the depths of the canyon, turning eight corners, and found no abnormality along the way. By this time, it was noon. Xiao Lu and his party came to a dilapidated temple and wrote three big words "Huidu Temple". Xiao Lu greeted everyone to get off the horse and rest for a while, nibble some dry food and then search and move forward. The volunteers got off one after another and nibbled at the dry food. Xiao Lu said, "Everyone must be thirsty. I'll take more than a dozen brothers to the nearby stream to get some water." After saying that, Xiao Lu took more than a dozen volunteers to find water.

Xiao Lu and others turned several mountain passes and finally saw a stream not far away. The stream flowed, making a crisp and pleasant sound, and heard someone talking. Xiaolu ordered the volunteers to take knives and guns, slowly approach the stream, and listen to who was talking.

Xiaolu and his entourage came to a section of stone wall near the stream and looked in the direction of the stream. It turned out to be a group of girls, 20 or 30 people were playing by the stream, making silver bell-like laughter. A girl in the middle, 16 or 17 years old, is very dignified, with bright eyes and teeth, a pair of long braids and drooping shoulders, slim, with a sword around her waist, very heroic. Especially how bright and intoxicating the smile is.

Although Xiaolu is young, only 15 years old, he is young and has been buried in his heart because he has been marching and fighting. Now seeing such a scene, somehow, Xiao Lu is deeply attracted by this girl. It should be about the same age, and this girl is very beautiful. Everyone has a love for beauty, not to mention that Xiao Lu is also a heroic and American teenager.

Just as Xiao Lu and the accompanying volunteers were intoxicated and forgot to fw water, the girl Xiao Lu looked at by the stream suddenly shouted, "Who are you? What are you doing here?" As he spoke, he pulled out his sword, and other girls also took out their weapons one after another, as if facing a great enemy. It turned out that Xiao Lu and others probed their heads and were found by the sharp-eyed girl. Xiaolu and others simply came out of the stone wall and said, "We are the rebel army in Haozhou to defect to General Huang Chao. Who are you? Why do they all carry weapons?"

The girl looked up and down at Xiao Lu and others and said, "What evidence do you think it is the Lushan Uprising Army?" Xiaolu stretched out his neck, spit out his tongue and said, "I don't think you are officers and soldiers, but from nearby villages. Organize yourself to resist officers and soldiers. I just don't understand that 20 or 30 of you are all girls and have weapons. I have run to many villages and haven't seen anything like you. Which one are you? Military?"

The girl said, "What's the matter? So what if not?"

Xiao Lu said, "We are the subordinates of General Yue Lingfei. My name is Xiao Lu. I think you are good people. Which team are you from? It's also the rebel army."

The girl nodded and looked at Xiao Lu without blinking. Xiao Lu was handsome and talked well, which suddenly attracted her. She smiled shyly and said, "We are Mrs. Sun Mei's subordinates. Where is Brother Yue? Where is he?"

Xiao Lu immediately said, "Girl, Brother Yue is not far behind, about 30 or 50 miles away. We came out to scout. It turns out that you are Mrs. Sun Mei's team, so we are a family. I want to meet Mrs. Sun Mei and tell me about the military situation. Please take me there!"

The girl hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, I'll take you there. Girls, put away your weapons and go up the mountain with these brothers.

Xiao Lu followed the girls to the cottage with the volunteers and passed several gates before arriving in the cottage hall. The girl turned around, smiled at Xiao Lu, and said softly, "Xiao Lu, you wait here. I'll inform your wife." Xiao Lu nodded and waited outside with the volunteers.

After a while, the girl ran out like a whirlwind and said to Xiao Lu, "What are you still doing? Go in quickly, madam, please.

Who the hell is this girl? It turned out to be Sun Mei's maid Wen Ying, but now she is a powerful general under Sun Mei's hand.

Xiaolu walked into the cottage hall and saw Sun Mei sitting in a tiger leather chair with a sad face. Although Xiao Lu was young, he was very sensible and knew that Sun Mei was sad for the death of General Xianzhi. Xiao Lu took a step forward, gave a deep salute, and said, "Madam, Xiao Lu came to see you!" Sun Mei looked up and down Xiao Lu for a while and said, "I seem to have seen you somewhere. Are you a member of the Rebel Army in Yizhou?"

Xiao Lu nodded: "Madam has a good memory. My name is Xiao Lu. I joined the Rebel Army in Yizhou. It was one day two years ago. When I was 13 years old, General Xianzhi and you talked to me. Later, I have been following the general to fight south and north.

When Sun Mei heard Xiao Lu's words, she recalled and said enthusiastically, "Yes, there was a child of Xiao Lu who became a soldier in Yizhou. That time, we couldn't beat Yizhou. When retreating, you surrendered to the rebels in the countryside. Sun Mei paused for a moment and asked, "Xiao Lu, I heard from Ying that General Yue Lingfei is nearby and sent you out to scout the terrain, right?"

Xiao Lu nodded: "Yes, madam, when General Xianzhi and Brother Yue broke up, he entrusted me to Brother Yue and asked him to take me to break through to the mountain to find General Chai Cun and others, and come back to you." With that, Xiaolu burst into tears. He shouted with tears, "General, Xiao Lu misses you!" Brothers, I miss you!"

Sun Mei was already weeping at this time. She also learned the news of Xianzhi's death from the volunteers who broke out of the siege. She cried for a few days and nights and vowed to avenge her husband. This time I met Xiaolu, which aroused her yearning for Xianzhi. She was sad and burst into tears. Wen Ying quickly walked to Sun Mei's side. Comforted: "Madam, we will definitely avenge the general!"

After all, Sun Mei is a heroine. She knew that tears can't solve the big event of revenge. She wiped her tears and said to Xiaolu, "Xiao Lu, you can inform Brother Yue now. Sun Mei only left a few people to stay in the cottage this time. The brigade will go to Haozhou with you to join forces with Brother Huang Chao to find Zeng Yuan. Yu, let them settle accounts!"
