Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In Yingzhou City, there is a forest of torches.  Clusters of flames swayed and danced in the cold wind, reflecting each person's face clearly.  The four to five hundred troops and horses that rose upon hearing the chaos were all that could be mobilized in the city at this moment.  Wearing armor and armed with soldiers, the generals led by men surrounded the barracks where Meng Nuan's troops were stationed.  A group of military generals put on their armor and rode their horses, either leading the troops to advance directly, or supporting and commanding from behind.  Leading groups of soldiers and horses from all over the capital, they rushed towards Meng Nuan's military camp from different directions.  The light snow is flying and the sky is as cold as ice.  The soldiers and horses were all breathing long white breaths as they walked quickly.  The fighting in Yingzhou has not yet started outside the city, but it will break out inside the city first!  A group of soldiers rushed over with heavy footsteps and thumping sounds.  The general who led the army rushed to the front. He was a rough man. He shouted with a Yan accent: "Hurry up! If you want to cause chaos in the city, you have to cut Meng Nuan into pieces! After the chaos is settled,  I asked the princess to give you meat and wine as a reward to the brothers! If Meng Nuan succeeds, we will die in battle. You will also be driven by the Jurchen Tatars to fight for their lives in the snow.  Don¡¯t you understand this?¡± The soldiers gasped heavily. Most of this group of soldiers were newly recruited from the Yunnan states.  He hasn't served for long, so he can't say he has much sense of belonging to the Fu Liao Army.  Kaicheng was reluctant to surrender. The Jurchen Tatars drove the people of Yunnei states like pigs and dogs outside the city. This was the fate of everyone who fell into the hands of the Jurchen Tatars.  " Moreover, the city of Yingzhou is strong and can be defended by the city. These soldiers are somewhat confident.  Willing to follow these so-called Fu Liao army generals to defend to the end.  Defending the city may not lead to death, but if the city is destroyed by the Jurchen Tatars, not one out of ten people may survive!  Tonight, I suddenly heard that Meng Nuan was causing trouble. Although he was ordered to stand up immediately, he put on armor and held troops.  The generals accompanying the army came out to quell the chaos.  But these newly recruited troops in Yunnei were somewhat murmuring in their hearts.  They are not afraid of war. Who has not experienced several incidents and fights while struggling to survive in the Yunnan states?  It is common for Wubi forts to attack and kill each other, either around the walls of others, or to defend with their own walls.  But the Liao army came from the Yan region and was considered an outsider. Those generals and generals were part of the inner circle.  Except for Meng Nuan who originally occupied Yingzhou tonight.  How seriously can one take someone born in Yunnei seriously?  Fight to the death with the Jurchen Tatars, regardless of the casualties of people like them in the cloud.  I'm just afraid that when I want to escape for my life, why don't I just leave them behind?  Speaking of which, these Fu Liao Army generals were wary of Meng Nuan, and everyone saw it!  But in this world, just take it one step at a time.  Meng Nuan is causing trouble.  He was not very alert, and in an instant he was surrounded by people like iron buckets.  Seeking death at home.  Who's to blame?  Not long after, this group of soldiers hurried to where the large army of soldiers and horses gathered.  Yingzhou City is small.  The Meng Nuan Military Camp occupies a small area, and several hundred troops tightly surround it, creating a rather impenetrable posture.  Although Guo Rong went north, he brought a lot of military resources with him.  The army can be expanded continuously.  Then select the elite to go south with Zhen Liuchen.  Currently, only a little more than half of the city's fortresses are armored.  Hundreds of troops and horses surrounded Meng Nuan's military camp, all wearing armor in front and preparing to fight.  Those placed at the back are all unarmored men.  What is surprising is that, regardless of whether they are armored or not, the hundreds of troops and horses surrounding Meng Nuan's camp are motionless.  The generals were walking through the ranks, and instead of yelling and ordering their men to attack, they were whispering to each other.  What are you talking about?  The general who came with the team shouted on his horse: "Get out of the way! Our team has armor, let us go to the front! Straight bitch, this is still a war, isn't it? Why are there wooden stakes in each one?"  Is the bird poking over here and not moving?" He shouted so loudly that everyone turned around.  A familiar general called him: "Gao Yi, your son doesn't need to come forward. Just rest on the spot. I've already sent someone to boil some hot water. I'm cold in sweat, so I don't have to freeze a batch."  Outside the city, everyone is rich Just come up to me." The general named Gao Yi wiped the hot sweat from his face. He came all the way in such a hurry that the sweat froze on his beard.  , when the firelight shined, it was sparkling.  While ordering his men to rest on the spot, he rode his horse forward.  The sergeants blocking the road one after another made way for them.  "Kill Meng Nuan? This guy is too bad at making trouble, and he was put down in a few moments. It makes all our hard work in vain. Who gets the first prize? Ma Wu? Chen Liang?" The general who greeted him  He smiled wryly and pointed with his hand: "Look at me, the voice is so loud that it can make people dizzy. Stand farther away from me." Gao Yi looked inside and saw how many soldiers were holding torches outside the small temple that was used as a military camp.  Brightly illuminated.  Inside and outside the small temple gate, there were hundreds of people kneeling. Meng Nuan was in front, taking off his clothes and armor, his upper body was bare, and his hands were bound to himself.  Kneeling at the front without raising his head.  Several generals who were sent to Meng Nuan¡¯s side were all present at this time.Treating their injuries.  One of them just finished bandaging, then he limped over to Meng Nuan with a cloak and put it on him. He also sighed: "Old Meng, when the princess comes, just listen to her and I will do it for you."  Talking." Gao Yi was stunned and pointed at Meng Nuan who was kneeling on the ground: "What kind of chaos is this?" The general next to him explained in a low voice: "A commander named Shen Luer under Meng Nuan saw the Jurchen Army.  When the situation became stronger, reinforcements came from the north. They planned to take advantage of Meng Nuan's patrol camp to cause chaos and seize the city gate to welcome the Jurchen Tatars. Ma Wu, Chen Liang and others became hasty and suffered.  Chuang Meng Nuan took advantage of the opportunity and killed Shen Lu'er. He saved Ma Wu, Chen Liang and the others, and now he has committed suicide. Meng Nuan has put an end to this chaos!  Gao Yi was still dumbfounded: "Meng Nuan put an end to the chaos?" The general beside him sighed: "Isn't that right?" Gao Yi looked at Meng Nuan who was kneeling and waiting for punishment, and then glanced at the hundreds of armored soldiers around him.  The army horse with the shining blades also lowered his voice, almost inaudibly, and said to the general beside him: "How about killing this guy right away, how much trouble will be saved." The general next to him lowered his voice even lower than him.  : "How to do it? All the armies are watching. How many people from Yunnei are in the city at this moment? Meng Nuan was executed for being innocent. How can a sergeant from Yunnei not abandon his heart? There is no need to defend Yingzhou Let's talk about Ma Wuchen  Liang and the others were rescued by Meng Nuan, so it would be hard to kill them right away for their sake." Gao Yi hesitated for a while, realizing that it was difficult to explain.  Those who lead troops know that if the military morale is solid, they can rely on it. If the military morale is not solid, even a ten thousand-year-old fortified city is not enough.  Meng Nuan made a great contribution tonight.  Just cut it off.  With so many sergeants from Yunnei in the army, they can only feel that these foreign soldiers and horses in the core of the Fu Liao Army do not treat their Yunnei people as human beings.  Maybe they won't cause trouble, but they will never fight to the death.  Now the army is defending alone, the Jurchen Tatars are approaching the city, and reinforcements are coming continuously. We are just about to unite, how can we mess up the morale of the army for nothing?  He muttered unwillingly: "I don't know why, but I just don't like this guy. He's so yin-heavy that I don't know what Zhenri is thinking" The general beside him sighed: "Let the princess and Tang  Let's go and kill him. We look at it Lao Gao, I always feel that we have to explain it here. I just want to kill a few more Tatars and don't lose money!"  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~ The sound of horseshoes clanking came in the night, and under the firelight, Guo Rong, Tang Huai and others were seen.  He came galloping with dozens of guards.  Guo Rong was riding at the front, with a thin layer of snowflakes already falling on her cloak.  Her pretty face and cheeks were also flushed red by the cold wind.  A pair of black and thin eyebrows were frowned tightly.  The guard behind him loudly announced: "The princess of Shu has arrived!" The officers and soldiers waiting here bowed to greet her.  Quickly make way for a passage.  Guo Rong nodded and said hello, but the whirlwind swept in. The first thing she saw was Meng Nuan, who was bowing to the ground respectfully, and the dejected soldiers under his command.  Guo Rong gritted her white teeth tightly.  He looked at Meng Nuan condescendingly and said coldly: "General Meng, what's going on?" Meng Nuan bowed his head deeply to the ground and did not dare to raise it: "It is a capital crime for a general to be incompetent in restraining his subordinates. In front of the princess.  , What else can you say to defend yourself? But the princess is only guilty of the crime. These men under the mo general were temporarily deceived. They found that the Jurchen Tatars were approaching the city, and there was going to be a war. These men also asked the princess to allow them to perform meritorious deeds for the princess.  Great cause As for the guilty general, let the princess punish him. Even if he dies, he has no regrets." Guo Rong held the riding whip tightly in one hand, and her eyebrows were almost twisted into knots.  Subconsciously, he waved his riding crop in the air twice, but did not speak.  Ma Wu, Chen Liang and others who were sent next to Meng Nuan looked at each other and finally stepped forward and bowed to Guo Rong: "Shen Lv'er made trouble and became hasty. The generals and others were incompetent and did not take precautions. Meng  The master killed the donkey, and the princess is innocent." Guo Rong bit her lip and replied angrily: "I know all this! Go back and recover!" She really has a headache now.  A chaotic incident was put down before anything happened.  This was a good thing, but Meng Nuan was the one who caused the chaos!  Guo Rong was completely unsure about what kind of person this person was.  When they got the latest news on the way, Guo Rong and the generals looked at each other in astonishment. For a moment, they really hoped that this mess would really get into trouble and that Meng Nuan could be eliminated in a legitimate manner!  But now, how can we start?  Countless eyes focused on Guo Rong, including many sergeants who were born in Yunnei.  Meng Nuan occupied Yingzhou and was considered a native of his hometown.  Although he was not good at it when he ruled YingzhouWhat good governance.  Instead, he forced Sixiawubibao Village to try its best to supply his thousands of troops and horses.  But for the outside Fu Liao Army, it even represents Yunnei's defection to the Fu Liao Army.  Killing Meng Nuan so easily will only make the soldiers deserted. No matter how strong the fortress of Yingzhou is, it is not strong enough!  Precisely because the Jurchen Tatars were forcing Yingzhou City, they wanted to get rid of the unstable factor Meng Nuan.  And it was also because the Jurchen Tatars were forcing the people under Yingzhou City, and they could not kill Meng Nuan without any guilt, which caused chaos in the army!  This is almost an unsolvable cycle.  At this moment, not only can¡¯t kill Meng Nuan.  There must also be praise and preferential treatment to reassure the soldiers.  It is also extremely difficult to deal with the soldiers under Meng Nuan who participated in the rebellion.  Not punishing them was not enough to deter the entire army, so they transferred all these sergeants from Meng Nuan's command, killed a few of them, and then dispersed them into other teams.  But this is not punishing the rebellious sergeant, but punishing Meng Nuan.  But how can we feel at ease if Meng Nuan has no power over the army?  Ouch, what a headache!  If the bad guy was here, he could sort out this mess, right?  The generals looked at Guo Rong frowning in thought, but no one spoke.  Now no one has any good ideas and feels in a dilemma.  But now so many people are watching helplessly, and there are still Jurchen Tatar troops outside the city, how can the stalemate continue like this?  Meng Nuan suddenly walked a few steps closer to Guo Rong's mount.  He still prostrated himself on the ground and did not raise his head: "I guarantee it with my life. My sons and I are willing to die for the princess of Shu! I will be lying in Yingzhou for a long time, and I promise to be the one here. The Jurchen Tatars drove Yingzhou students away  People, if you drive away pigs and dogs, you will be at odds with the Jurchen Tatars! If you are guilty of committing a crime, you should serve your purpose by committing a crime. Please allow me to lead fifty troops and horses to guard the Jiazi Fort at the foot of the mountain!  If the Jurchen Tatars attack the fortress of Yingzhou, they will be killed in a pile of corpses in front of the Jiazi Fort. "The main fortress of Yingzhou is built on the mountain, and a road leads directly to the main fortress.  forward.  Along this passage, four forts were built from low to high, all made of earth, wood and rocks.  Two by two, they control the passage.  The distance between each other is reachable with bows and arrows, and they are used to defend the main city fortress.  Foreign enemies attack the main fortress of Yingzhou.  If you go straight along the road.  These four little forts can carry them around and beat them.  Let them be surrounded by arrows raining down from all sides.  By gnawing along the small forts one after another, the main city fortress can freely use its troops under the cover of these small forts to attack out of the city at any time, contain the enemy's offensive, and support the defense of the small forts.  Such a defensive system.  Coupled with the dangerous terrain, Yingzhou is really difficult to attack.  Meng Nuan invited her to stay in a small fort at the bottom.  Face the Jurchen army!  When Guo Rong and the generals thought about the method of punishment he proposed, they found that it had more advantages than disadvantages.  Meng Nuan selected dozens of his confidants to go out, which meant that he gave up the power to command the remaining troops and horses in the city.  We can break up the divisions, and this biggest factor of instability will disappear.  Meng Nuan leads dozens of troops and horses. What kind of chaos can happen outside the city far away?  The worst result is that Meng Nuan surrenders the fortress.  Kejiazi Fort is located at the lowest level.  Just other forts.  As long as the main city fortress is not lost, the Jurchen Tatars can gain a foothold in the A-shaped fort with just bows and crossbows.  It doesn't serve any purpose.  If you want to defeat Yingzhou, you have to go through it layer by layer!  To put it bluntly, maybe Meng Nuan really surrendered the fortress, and everyone would be relieved!  What's more, he can justifiably dispose of the military horses left by Meng Nuan and keep them firmly in his hands.  According to the fortified city, there will be no internal worries and everyone will be united.  The generals are confident that they can defend Yingzhou until the reinforcements arrive!  Since Guo Rong surrendered, no one has ever doubted that reinforcements would eventually arrive.  Guo Rong, Tang Huai and others looked at each other and nodded slowly.  Guo Rong slowed down her tone and said to Meng Nuan: "General Meng, you have meritorious service in bringing down the chaos. Please stand up. If you want to protect your subordinates from committing crimes, I will not pursue the case As for guarding the Jiazi Fort,  " Meng Nuan straightened up, looked at Guo Rong, and said loudly: "I will give you my best! We who are from Yunnei also want to follow the princess and do something in our career. If we don't do anything at this time, it will be even worse!  When will you be brave? I just feel that the confidants around the princess still look down on us, so we will fight at the front to show the princess! After this battle, please also ask the princess to treat us like this.  The loyal people who serve the princess also rely on their hearts!" When the soldiers from Yun Nei heard these words, everyone was moved.  And Meng Nuan was kneeling in the snow, looking confident, righteous, and extremely loyal.  Guo Rong¡¯s eyes also became sharp, piercing Meng Nuan¡¯s face.  And Meng Nuan looked back proudly.  I don't know how long it took, but Guo Rong nodded slowly: "I deeply admire General Meng's loyalty. As General Meng asked, I will go out tonight to take over the defense of Jiazi Fort! As long as General Meng and his subordinates can fight to the death, I will  How can I not rely on my heart? I will dispatch troops and horses at any time to support General Meng.equipment.  Everyone worked together to defend Yingzhou.  The army from the south returned to support, defeated the Jurchen Tatars, and restored the foundation of the Liao Dynasty. We are all famous officials of the ZTE, and we should be together with the Liao Dynasty!  " Meng Nuan once again prostrated herself deeply: "I will work hard for the princess!  " Meng Nuan's close confidants also prostrated themselves and responded: "I will serve the princess to the death!  " " As soon as one sound came out, hundreds of voices rose together. Hundreds of voices were released at the same time, shouting so that the Yingzhou City Fortress roared into a ball: "I will die for the princess!"  ¡± ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~~~ After Yan Xiyin left, Yin Shuke quietly stood up and walked out of the Chinese army tent. He looked at the Yingzhou City Fortress in the distance, and the guards outside the tent gave him a cloak, but Yin Shuke was blocked.  Shu Ke pushed it away. Before the drums stopped at the top of Yingzhou City, another wave of shouting sounded. In the night, the mountains and valleys responded.  Yin Shuke shook his head and laughed: "I'm trying to embolden myself What's the use of the army and horses that I put together?  " "Siege the city tomorrow!  Thousands of people will die, and they will fight hard to see how much pressure they can withstand, and see what changes will happen to this pieced together military horse!  " And in Yingzhou City, Guo Rong returned to the city head. The soldiers and horses in the city either returned to their camps or were on guard duty silently. Meng Nuan also selected his close friends under the condition that the generals accompanied them in name but under surveillance, and prepared to leave the city and enter.  Guarding the Jiazi Fort, the original defenders were replaced. The number of soldiers and horses guarding the city gate was doubled. With these fifty men, Meng Nuan wanted to seize the gate while the city was opening, unless all of them were the reincarnations of Daluo Jinxian.  Guo Rong didn't feel sleepy at all. Standing high above the city, she suddenly asked Tang Huai, who had been silent behind her, "Brother Tang, can Yingzhou be defended?"  " Tang Huai still didn't speak. But Guo Rong smiled sweetly: "The bad guy owes me more" While Guo Rong was talking to himself, the Yingzhou City Fortress was opened in a small city protruding from the side of the horse's face.  The door was opened, and Meng Nuan led fifty of his confidants out of the city under heavy surveillance. The soldiers on duty watched in silence. Meng Nuan was the great hero.  What happens next?
