Chapter 219 Double Emperor

Shangdang County, this originally inconspicuous county, has now become the focus of the world because of the move-in of the Jin Dynasty army.

With the arrival of the 50,000 army of Tandaoji, the soldiers and civilians of the whole county took action to increase the wall, widen the moat, and spread iron thisbulus antlers on the grass and various official roads, so as to affect the speed of the Wei army's horses.

No one dares to say when the Wei army will arrive. Doing so is completely according to Lu Qiang's assignment. According to Lu Qiang's words, this is to defend the homeland and expel the invaders.

For a while, under the leadership of Lu Qiang, the soldiers and civilians of Yan in the whole Shangdang County area completely entered a vigorous self-help movement.

Xiang Zhuang dances swords and is intended for Pei Gong.

Since Tuoba Kui has regarded Lu Qiang as a real enemy, of course, he can't wait indefinitely in Zhongshan, because his current goal has been changed.

In order to eliminate his worries, he first led his troops to defeat the Yan army outside Zhongshan City, and then left 200,000 troops to continue to maintain the siege of Zhongshan, and he personally led 200,000 troops south to Shangdang County.

At the age of about 30, Tuoba Kui was rich and ambitious. According to his original idea, he lured Lu Qiang to Zhongshan, and then defeated it in one fell swoop. Even if he could not conquer Zhongshan, he would besiege Lu Qiang in Zhongshan, so that he could negotiate with the Central Plains emperor at will.

However, although the facts did not go as he wanted, he did not worry. He knew that the Jin Dynasty had never stopped over the years and could not come up with him at all. If he could transfer a large army, it would be good. He could break it in one fell swoop and lay a solid foundation for his battle to the south after Pingyan.

The arrangements arranged by Lu Qiangren around the Shang Party have been reported to Tuoba, and Tuoba Kui did scratch his head a little.

The Wei army is mainly cavalry, relying on galloping like the wind. Now the road is full of iron thistock. How can his army run?

I don't know whether it was helplessness or deliberately, he ordered the army to move slowly, and then drive away the captured slaves of the State of Yan to clear the road in front of him.

Tuoba's practice is not poisonous, because the people who cleaned the road were all from Yan, which made the Jin army, who were preparing to ambush, have to give up this idea.

The Jin army may not care about the life or death of the Yan people, but don't forget that this is on the land of the State of Yan. If you kill the Yan people indiscriminately, in case they arouse the disgust of the Yan people and unite with the Wei people again, I'm afraid the whole Jin army will have to explain here.

"Report, the forward of the Wei army has reached 60 miles"

"Report, the forward of the Wei army has reached 50 miles"...

Although Wei Jun's action was slow, he always kept advancing to the party. Ma Tan waited and continuously returned the latest developments of Wei Jun to Lu Qiang.

Today, Shangdang County is full of soldiers. In addition to the 50,000 regular army of the Jin Dynasty, there are also 10,000 Yan troops from other places, and more than 10,000 people temporarily formed to help defend the city.

Although such troops are not enough to confront the Wei army head-on, it is still possible to protect themselves, especially after knowing that the commander of the Jin army is actually the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, which aroused the determination of the people of the Yan Dynasty to defend their homeland to the death.

The emperors have helped you resist the invaders. What reason do you have not to kill the enemy?

For a while, the morale of Shangdang County was high, and he only waited for the Wei army to come and fought to the death.

Lu Qiang's mood is not so relaxed. Deng Xiang's people have been gone for more than ten days, and now there is no news, and the key to this war lies in Deng Xiang and others.

China has just calmed down, and it is time to develop vigorously. If you are trapped here for a long time, who can guarantee that nothing will happen in the south?

With his current strength, if he wants to defeat Tuobaui's 200,000 iron riders in one fell swoop, it is almost no different from the idiot's dream, so he must let Tuoba Kui be confused before he has a chance to defeat the enemy, but he dares to defeat Tuoba Kui in one fell swoop.

At this time, it has just entered June. Although the weather is not hot, standing on the top of the city under the scorching sun, even if there is a breeze touching the face, it still makes people feel uncomfortable.

Since knowing Lu Qiang's identity, Duan Zichang has changed more and worked harder. He is as humble as a minister of the Jin Dynasty in front of Lu Qiang.

Although Lu Qiang doesn't like people who slap their beards, he is still very happy to feel the attitude of the Han people towards him under foreign rule. After all, they have not forgotten their ancestors.

After inspecting a circle of city defense with Lu Qiang, Tan Daoji and Duan Zichang returned to the tower for tea and rest.

Wei Jun is only dozens of miles away from the county. Although the action is slow, it will arrive soon, so they have no time to go back to the government office to rest.

After making a cup of herbal tea for Lu Qiang, Duan Zi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I have good news to tell you. Do you still remember the Luoyang Taishou Sun Hu who once offended your majesty? I only got the news this morning that he was hiding in the city. I have sent someone to get it. You will see him in a moment."

"Sun Hu!"

Thinking of this person, Lu Qiang was not angry. At the beginning, it was because of his robbery that he almost lost his life in the State of Yan, and there would be no change in Jiangling.

After that, he had been busy with all kinds of things and forgot this big enemy. If it hadn't been for the joke today, Lu Qiangzhen would have forgotten this person.

nodded and said, "Okay, after catching it, bring it to see me immediately. I'd like to see how many heads he has."

As soon as Lu Qiang's words fell, the horn of the head of the city blew up. It was the sound of the alarm. The horn sounded, which meant that the enemy was coming.

Lu Qiang couldn't take care of Sun Hu's matter, so he immediately got up and took the lead and went out.

It's just past noon, and it's cloudless, and the line of sight is very good.

Looking around, there was suddenly a black line at the horizon. With the fluctuation of the black line, Wei Jun, who could not see the end at a glance, finally appeared.

It was also the first time to see such a powerful enemy, and his face couldn't help showing a solemn look.

Tuoba Kui imitated the Han system. Although she went out to fight and could not take the emperor's palace, there were still some necessary honors.

In the middle of the team is a high yellow umbrella cover. The umbrella cover is surrounded by flying dragons, flying tigers, flying leopards and other flags. The guards around the yellow umbrella cover are pure black high-headed horses. Immediately, the warriors' armor is bright, which is much better than other soldiers.

In terms of momentum alone, Tuoba Kui is more imposing than Luqiang, the Central Plains emperor.

After looking at it for a while, Lu Qiang suddenly smiled and turned his head to Tan Daoji and others: "What is Tuoba Kui going to do? Set up a stage to sing a big play? If it's better than this, then I'm willing to bow down."

Although everyone understood that the emperor said this to relieve their nervousness, they still laughed when they heard what the emperor said.

Laughter is undoubtedly a refreshing medicine, relaxing the soldiers participating in the defense of the city.

The Wei army stopped 30 miles outside the city. After a short pause, it was divided into three parts. One continued to walk towards the county, and the other two passed left and right. Without asking, they understood that they were going to surround the county.

In the middle is Tuobagui's personal guard. Tuobagui's eyes are very good and far away, and he sees a strong road like a flock of chickens.

Although Tuoba Kui has never seen Lu Qiang, he has long known that Lu Qiang is tall and has abnormal people. So although Lu Qiang did not wear the emperor's costume, he was sure that that person was the target of his trip.

Looking at the raised city wall, the widened moat and various defense fortifications, Tuoba's eyes also showed a solemn look. He couldn't help nodding secretly. He had long heard that Lu Qiang, the emperor, had been fighting for a long time. At first sight today, it really lived up to his reputation. It seemed that he had to pay some price to break through this city.

Tuoba's unscrupulous general followed and shouted, "Your Majesty, please take the lead for a while"

Tuoba Kui shook his head. He was also the immediate emperor. Seeing that Lu Qiang, the emperor of the Central Plains, did not have any honor around him, he couldn't help but feel the desire to win.

With his legs hard, he rode out of the team and waved the guards beside him: "Go, please the emperor of Jin to answer"

It is false to say that Lu Qiang is not worried about the formation of the Wei army. After all, Shangdang County is not a big county, and time is tight. No matter how high and reinforced it is, it can't be compared with a city like Jiangling.

Now that the Wei army did not launch an attack immediately, Lu Qiang was also secretly relieved. Seeing that Tuoba Kui came out, he, the emperor of the Central Plains, certainly could not lose face.

Sheng people to lead the red rabbit horse, order 3,000 iron horses, turn over the horse and prepare to go out of the city to meet Tuoba Ji. Turning his head, he saw several soldiers coming up the city with a hair-haired man.

Lu Qiang had never seen Sun Hu, but his intuition told him that this was the person who almost killed him.

Stretching out Fang Tianhu, he raised Sun Hu's drooping head and said, "What do you think dares to rob and kill me? Now I have no time to pay attention to you. I will use you to sacrifice the flag when I come back."

Sun Hu already knew that he would die, but after listening to Lu Qiang's words, he looked up at Lu Qiang and said angrily, "As the Han emperor, he is connected to the lives of thousands of Han people, but he acted bravely. However, if you want to kill him, you can kill him. Sun will never frown."

"bold and presumptuous..."

Lu Qiang was slightly stunned, and then waved his hand to stop the scolding of the people around him. He looked at Sun Hu coldly and said, "Am I a faint king? You can't decide. Keep an eye on him and wait for me to come back to deal with it."

After saying that, he ignored Sun Hu and rod his horse down the city along the road on the wall. At this time, the three thousand iron riders under the city were ready to go. As the road was strong down to the city, the suspension bridge was lowered and the gate was opened.

Lu Qiang shook the reins and galloped out first.

Lu Qiang's bravery is well known all over the world, especially his unstoppable archery, even Tuoba Gui, who is famous for riding and shooting.

So when Lu Qiang ran out, the bodyguard beside Tuoba Kui quickly erected the giant shield to prevent Lu Qiang from suddenly in trouble.

Tuoba gui did not believe that Lu Qiang would shoot cold arrows at him as soon as he met him. After gently retreating the guards, he also rode out. However, for the sake of safety, he still kept a certain distance from Lu Qiang, who had stopped.

Without saying anything, the eyes of the two hegemons from one south and one north met first...
