Chapter 5 Jumping Horse Bridge

On the second day of March, Chenshi, outside Chang'an City, meeting.

"Young commander! Yesterday, the owner of the Song valor, Xing Ye, dispatched troops and generals, divided into three armies, each of which was 20,000 people. One was led by General Qin Qiong and marched into Yi Jue. The other army was personally commanded by Song Zhi, the second master of the Song Dynasty, from Taihang to the east of Hanoi. Hanoi is now the only stronghold of the Zheng army north of the Great River. If this town is lost, the north bank of the Great River can be in the hands of the army. With the strength of the Song Valve Marine Division, along the Great River and from the west of Hebei, not only the grain and grass supply is abundant, but also the north of the Great River (Yellow River) will completely fall under our control!" The expression of the virtual travel was unsurprisingly reported.

"Ha! My father-in-law is worthy of being a military and geographical master. His control of the situation in Luoyang has reached the state of watertight. Kou Zhonglang laughed loudly and got up with an excited face.

No wonder, I thought about the situation in Luoyang all night yesterday and always felt something was wrong. But after hearing this, he immediately realized that he didn't expect to start from the waterway. He subconsciously thought that he could only fight by land in the Central Plains War, and he committed an obvious psychological blind spot. Song Que is not like this. He can be said to have thought about how to attack Luoyang for nearly 40 years. Naturally, he is different as soon as he takes action. Such a move completely makes Luoyang fall into the realm of Weigu. Your military skills are unrivaled, just like a turtle in an urn, and you can only be given the first to wait.

"The two cities of Cou'an and Ique, one is south of Luoshui, and the other is west of Yishui. The two cities are only one day apart, and their lips and teeth depend on each other. Zhang Zhenzhou, who is experienced in Shou'an, is in the town. As long as he sends troops to respond, I'm afraid he may not be able to do his best. Moreover, there are also 2,000 soldiers in Longmen Fort outside Ique City. It is also a threat to kill at the critical moment. Xu Shiji said cautiously that after all, he had suffered the loss of Zhang Zhenzhou.

"The world's achievements are too worrying! If Zhang Zhenzhou dares to move, then the general will have the opportunity to make contributions and upgrade!" Kou Zhong is full of confidence.

"Young commander, what does this have to do with Lao Dan?" Cheng Yaojin had a question mark on his face and interrupted.

"General Cheng! If General Shan and General Pei captured and returned to Luo, they were in charge of Beipi Mountain. On the one hand, they cut off the grain transportation channel from Luoyang to Cijian, and on the other hand, they were on standby at any time from the south. Once Zhang Zhenzhou, the guard of Shou'an, sent troops to help Yi Que, General Shan could immediately go north and take Shou'an. At that time, not only did Zhang Zhenzhou become a lonely army, but Yi Que was also surrounded by the north and south, and naturally he did not attack and break himself. In this way, General Shan made great contributions and won three levels in a row. The young man beside him always made a point and came forward to explain.

"Huh! Lao Cheng, I have known for a long time. You are such a stinky boy, and I still need you to be fingered!" Cheng Yaojin was reminded by a young general of less than 20. He was unhappy and looked for the steps.

"..." Ma Chang smiled bitterly and was embarrassed.

"Haha..." The generals laughed.

"But since then, there is only one way to live in Luoyang." Xu Shiji nodded and continued to frown deeply.

"It's a pity that Lao Dan was careless and lost Luokou last year, otherwise Zheng Jun would not even have a place to escape!" Cheng Yaojin looked unhappy, but it was a pity.

Last year, when Yun Yi was dealing with Lin Shihong, Wang Shichong took advantage of the fire to rob and sent a large army to attack Luokou. Shan Xiongxin has been paying attention to the southern war situation. The defense is lax. For a moment, he was defenseless and lost Luokou. For this reason, he automatically applied for two levels of relegation. In order to wash away the previous humiliation, he took the initiative to participate in the Battle of Luoyang. Seeing this, Qin Qiong also went to take care of him, which was why the two did not participate in the Battle of Chang'an.

"Ha! The victory or defeat of the war never depends on the gains and losses of one city and one place. At that time, General Shan was able to bring out most of the brothers in the city to atone for his sins. You don't need to be indignant. Kou Zhong came to his senses, smiled happily, patted Cheng Yaojin on the shoulder, and persuaded him.

"Who is the general of Luokou now?" Kou Zhongxuan immediately turned around and asked Shen Luoyan.

"Yang Gongqing!" Shen Luoyan simply replied.

"Uh-huh!" Kou Zhong nodded, with a deep face, and said, "Do it! Ma Ding, the third person of the Song warlord, is to deal with Luokou, right?

"The warlord ordered Song Lu to lead the army, attack Luokou, and cut off the last grain road in Luoyang. The grain could not enter Luoyang, and Luoyang completely became a lonely city." A report of false behavior.

"Alas! This time, Luokou doesn't need to attack at all. As soon as Uncle Lu arrived, Luokou soldiers did not attack from the bottom. Kou Zhong looked with admiration and sighed.

"What does the young commander mean?" Shen Luoyan was a little puzzled, "The news network of Shenjiantang analyzed that Yang Gongqing, the general of Luokou, may be the best friends of Song Lude. Is it true?"

"What Luo Yan said is right!" Kou Zhong looked at Shen Luoyan, who was pale, and said with a little intention, "Yang Gongqing is not only Uncle Lu's childhood friend, but also his heart is dedicated to supporting the Han people. He is patient. He is just waiting for a good opportunity under Wang Shichong.

"This time, the warlord asked Uncle Lu to lead the army. It can be said that it is both love and righteousness. Why does Luokou need to use troops?" Kou Zhong paused and continued, "And Kou dares to guarantee that the people who went to Luokou this time were not the 20,000 soldiers in the news. It was expected that there would be only 3,000 people at most. It is estimated that nearly half of the 60,000 soldiers sent out will go to the tiger prison."

"If Yang Gongqing surrenders, it will not only be a great blow to Zheng Jun's morale, but also the consequences will be unimaginable. First of all, the last supply line of Luoyang will be cut off, and all the towns east of Luoyang will be lost. At that time, once the Yique is lost, the big river is sealed, and then the mercy stream is lost, Luoyang will have the only way out, but at that time, the tiger prison was already a lonely city, and there was no strategic advantage. If it is like the young marshal's guess, it will only be a matter of time before the tiger prison is captured. Shen Luoyan said like a clam spitting beads.

"This is like the way of Go. Zheng Jun's territory seems to be a big dragon. If he shakes head-on, even if he wins, he will lose more than half of it. However, the Song valve master was a better player, besieged and cut off the weakness of the dragon, blocked every living mouth, and then collected his breath one by one, until only Luoyang's one eye was left, and the one-eyed could never be made alive. Kou Zhong analyzed. A few days ago, when I was bored in Shengong City, I played chess with Hou Xibai.

"Yes! What did Li Jing do when he arrived at Cijian? Kou Zhong asked cautiously.

"Somehow, Li Jing didn't want to deal with several people dispatched by the Songfa. Instead, he ordered Zheng Jun to build a fortress with a boulder in these two days." Ma often doesn't understand. He is a top student of Zongheng College, and he has an inexplicable feeling about Li Jing's behavior.

"What? Is the stone castle built between Cijian and Luoyang? Xu Shiji was shocked.

"How did General Xu know?" Ma Chang wondered, after all, he is the new intelligence officer.

"Xiao Chang! After all, you haven't experienced many wars, and you still don't understand what kind of people our opponents Wang Shichong and Li Jing are. Kou Zhong smiled and said that he was cultivating Ma Chang. Naturally, he was a little uncomfortable with his mistakes.

"Wang Shichong is indecisive, nepotism, and there are many factions within the regime, and there are many contradictions. Li Jing, an outsider, has the ability to persuade Wang Shichong to send troops to defend. No matter how strong Li Jing's military ability is, he can only do a good job in the defense of Cijian. Brother Shiji, let's be Xiaochang's teacher for free!" Kou Zhong explained.

"Master, please give me some advice!" Ma Chang is not stupid. Why don't you behave well when you look at this opportunity? He has long thought about worshipping a famous general. Obviously, the most suitable one in line with Ma Chang's own pattern is Xu Shiji, the first general of the Shengong City Army.

"Don't scream, boy. I'm still very young. Don't call me old!" Xu Shiji joked.

"Thank you, Brother Xu! From now on, Ma Chang will hang out with the eldest brother!" Hemp is often inserted into the needle. Let the generals on the side have a good taste.

"Ky! Your Brother Cheng, my skills are not bad. It's time to worship me!" Cheng Yaojin said unplealy.

"Hahaha..." The generals laughed again.

"The reason why Li Jing built a stone castle between Luoyang and Cijian is that it can strengthen the defense west of Luoyang, and secondly connect Luoyang and Cijian. After being besieged by the Song Lord, he received timely assistance from Luoyang when he was defending the Cijian. The third is that the stone castle cooperates with the terrain of the tiger prison. The three become horns, with both attack and defense, and mutual assistance, which can be the most effective defensive siege of the warlord. Xu Shiji explained and worried at the same time.

When Kou Zhong heard this, he shook his head and said, "Although this move has a miraculous effect, there is no supply of food and fodder. How long can Luoyang last?" Within a month, Luoyang will go down!"

......

On the second day of March, at noon, I woke up in Chang'an City.

"How did Ziling sleep last night? But I'm bitter first and then sweet. The first is a nightmare, and the second is a good dream. I dream of concubines. Hou Xibai pushed the door and came in and laughed.

Xu Ziling looked at him and sat down on the edge of the bed. When he heard the last word 'concubine', he immediately stared at him for a long time, and indescribably complicated emotions surged in his heart. Recalling the battle with the two holy monks last night, he was speechless for a moment.

Hou Xibai saw that Xu Ziling did not answer and said worriedly, "How is the internal injury in Ziling?"

"Brother Hou's meticulous treatment yesterday has greatly made great efforts, but he can't use force with people in these two days." Xu Ziling said with a wry smile:

"Is it so serious? Don't take action on the day of the incident. Let me do it alone!" Hou Xibai advised.

"This is not necessary! Yun Shao did it in the next night. At that time, I believe that I have also recovered 50% or 60% of my skills. It is still no problem to deal with some ordinary soldiers. Xu Ziling smiled.

"Before, I was worried about Ziling's stubbornness, but when I saw Ziling's smile, I knew that the realm must have made progress again. It was Xibai who was too worried!" A trace of enlightenment flashed in Hou Xibai's eyes and nodded.

"Ha! It should be snowing outside! Shall we go to that restaurant for breakfast? Xu Ziling glanced at Hou Xibai's skirt and said.

"Ziling is really careful!" Hou Xibai** said, "The most famous one in Chang'an City is Shanglin Garden. The three-storey building is located in the north of the city. On the highest floor, you can see the beautiful scenery flowing through the Wei River outside the city." Although they are in Chang'an, they have human skin masks, and with the courage of art, they naturally go there.

Xu Ziling lifted the quilt out of bed and smiled, "Did Yun Shao get any news?"

"There are only eight words, that is, 'Xuanyuan has a son, Xuanwu slaughters dragon'." Hou Xibai nodded and said

At this moment, Xu Ziling suddenly stopped dressing, showing a strange look, and whispered, "Come out! I know it's you, Yang Xuyan. Come out!"

Hou Xibai's heart was shocked, and the most terrible thing finally happened.

......

On the second day of March, on the Yuema Bridge, men and women.

Yun Yi and Wan Wan hugged each other for a long time and quietly experienced the meeting in the snow. They suddenly felt that the world was only as wide as a foot away, only me and you and I.

"Wan'er, this is the rhinoceros ring, for you!" Yun Yi took the slippery jade hand, took out a blood-colored ring from her arms, and said affectionately.

In fact, making a ring is also related to Yun Yi's ability to shoot arrows. After all, pulling the bow with one finger is too much, which is easy to affect the thumb. So the thumb is full of the wrench, so the ring is naturally not a problem. However, Yunyi's current power naturally does not need to pull his finger.

A sweet smile flashed on Wan Wan's beautiful jade face, pushed Yun Yi's hand away and hummed, "It's too late, don't!"

"No? Alas! It has no meaning of existence, so I'll throw it into Yong'an Canal!" Before he finished speaking, Yun Yi was a lightning throw.

"Ah! Don't!" The Huahua turned pale and looked anxious. She was about to jump up and jump off the bridge to look for the ring.

"Ha..." Yun Yi laughed.

Hearing the laughter, the chan immediately stopped her beautiful posture, raised her jade arm, and said quietly, "Isn't it just a broken ring? I don't care about it!"

Obviously, Wan Wan saw through Yun Yi's behavior and knew that Yun Yi hid the ring instead of throwing it into the water. But if it was Shang Xiuxun, she would definitely jump directly into the canal to look for it. This may be the difference between the two women.

"Isn't it rare?" Yun Yi smiled evilly, and there must be no good thing.

"I sent thousands of years of accumulation. How can I keep a ring slave in my heart!" She was stubborn, but a "slave" claimed to have betrayed her.

"Then why is the ring on the baby's hand?" Yun Yi squeezed into the opposite way.

"Huh? When..." Yuyan raised her jade hand and looked at the blood-colored ring already worn in her hand.

When it is warm, it changes.

"Two holy monks, come out! Before Chengyun didn't kill someone!" Yun Yi's handsome face was suddenly very cold, and he said.
