Rebel

On the other side of the North...

At dawn, taking advantage of the cover of the night that had not completely dissipated, Huai Xin and Dian Bushi led [-] cavalry, after a night of non-stop galloping, they finally arrived at the foot of Shangjun.

The deep dawn coated everyone's armor with a layer of darkness.The horses under the cavalry's crotch had already galloped out of breath. They were just captured from the Zhongrong garrison in Yuyang County.On the waists of all the cavalrymen, all of them were equipped with the scimitars of the Rong people. The cold light of the sharp blades was hidden in the morning mist that had not yet dawned, making them look desolate and cold.

Dian didn't know that he was wearing a military helmet and bronze armor, coupled with his fierce appearance, he looked very much like a northern barbarian at a glance.Among the Rong warriors, the armor made for the most powerful generals was worn on Dian Bushi's body, but there was no violation at all.He put away his Lengyue axe, and straddled a scimitar inlaid with gemstones on his waist, which he got from the beheaded commander of the Rong people.

Huai Xin pretended to be the military advisor of the Rong people, wrapped her body in a black robe, and followed Dian Bushi.He wore a fur hat unique to the Rong people, covering most of his face, making him look pale and gloomy.The rebel army has been attacking day after day, and many people are already exhausted, but the army is so fast, coupled with the fact that Yuyang was broken for encouragement, it is full of energy and morale is high.

Everyone's faces were solemn, and Huai Xin's expression was even more serious along the way——Whether the battle to open the door in Rongdi can be fulfilled depends on it!

Huai Xin knew in her heart that although Gu Ao led the rebel army to take Yuyang by chance, it was just a surprise for the Rong people when the spring ice and snow had not yet melted!After all, since the capture of the two counties of Beidi, the two kings fought each other, but they transferred all the powerful troops away from Yuyang and Shangdang, which made Gu Ao succeed in a sneak attack by deceit.

But if the abolished prince heard about this and led his troops thousands of miles away to help, and the elite Rong people were always brave, and it only took two or three days to arrive, then the situation in the Northland would be reversed again.

...If Shangjun and Yuyang County hadn't been the horns of each other to prepare for attack and defense, then the abolished prince would be able to make the city run out of food just by besieging the city. It is not comparable to the [-] military officers guarding Yuyang County.

Gu Ao went out to the north to fight against the army, which was a dangerous move for the army, so he couldn't help but make a mistake.This battle is not only related to the success or failure of the anti-Rong righteousness, but more importantly-the Shangjun in front of me is the hometown that Huai Xin has been thinking about and thinking about day and night since she left.

Huai Xin still remembers that the old King Rong was still alive that year, and his troops were strong and strong, and he broke through the army commanded by his parents in several waves of charges like the tide. , On the ever-changing battlefield, the speed is still too slow... What's more, the Shangjun cavalry and the Rong cavalry were outnumbered at that time, and they were finally broken through the battle formation... The infantry faced the iron cavalry and immediately fell thousands of miles.

Huai Xin looked up, at the end of the morning mist was the towering city wall of Shang County.

Suddenly, a feathered arrow shot down, and it was stuck in the ground in front of the horse's hoof.

1 people reined in their horses under Dian Buzhi's order, and the generals guarding the city asked loudly: "...Where is the comer?"

At this time, a Han-Yong mixed-race officer who was originally a centurion commander in the Northern Army of Qiu Mu, but now serves as a lieutenant in the rebel army, took a step out and replied loudly: "We are from the Wulan tribe in the south of the mountain. , dispatched by Zuo Xianwang, come to help your general!"

The Rong people in the city said: "Why didn't we receive this military order?"

The people in the city said: "It's an emergency. If we send another envoy, I'm afraid there won't be enough days! Zuo Xianwang heard that the people in Hanzhong said that Tianshui was fighting Yuyang, but it was a cover. It turned out that the people in Hanzhong had colluded with the Nanman court. Shout out to the west! King Zuoxian got a report that the Emperor Nanman is going to attack Shangjun! So I am afraid that you will not have enough manpower, first let us report the letter, and second, let us quickly solve the Nanman!"

"Is there a token of Zuo Xianwang?"

"Here is the command flag!" As he said that, the captain of the volunteer army took out a military flag captured in Yuyang from his arms, raised his hand and raised its four corners, showing it to the Rong people at the top of the city.

Rong Ren at the top of the city said: "Since this is the case, I will open the door and lower the suspension bridge. You should step back carefully."

"it is good!"

Dian Bushi led his troops back ten steps, and the gate of Shangjun burst open in front of him!

At this time, those in the rebel army had never seen such a battle. Seeing the slings slowly being lowered and the city gate slowly opening, they all thought in their hearts: "...What a magnificent city defense! We don't even have such a majestic city wall in Hanzhong. Let's take a look today. , it was an eye-opener."

Dian Bushi showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, and his hands were already slowly pressing on the handle of the knife with some excitement, showing blue veins.As soon as the bridge was implemented, Dian Buzhi yelled, "Let's go!"

2 people rushed towards the city of Shangjun, and all of a sudden, dust was raised under the feet of the horse's hooves. run thunder!

When the crowd entered the city, Dian Bushi raised his knife and killed anyone he saw. In an instant, the sound of killing sounded in the city.Dian didn't know how to kill to the fullest, spit out a foul breath, and led the people straight to the county mansion, and the howling of ghosts and wolves filled the street in an instant!

And the other generals split up, some attacked from the inner city to the top of the city, and some ran straight to the arsenal where the soldiers were hoarding armor...

This battle... lasted until noon.

At noon, Gu Ao had a simple Chinese meal and stayed up all night, but his energy was still vigorous.At this time, Chen Jiang came back with someone, his face was full of joy, as soon as he entered the door, Gu Ao glanced at the left and right, and the left and right immediately bowed and retreated, closed the door, Chen Jiang knelt down in front of Gu Ao with a plop and said: "God help the King of Han, King of Han, please read." As he spoke, Chen Jiang took out an account book from his pocket with trembling hands, held it up high, and presented it in front of Gu Ao.

Gu Ao glanced at it in his hand, and asked in a low voice: "...Have you seen it all? Then there is really so much grain and grass in the granary of the Beijun Mansion?"

Chen Jiang said a little excitedly: "It's absolutely true, I have seen it all, and there is absolutely no omission."

"Okay..." Gu Ao put down the account book in his hand: "Okay, okay..." After saying hello three times in a row, he came back to his senses and quickly helped Chen Jiang up: "How can I do such a great gift... Sit down quickly .”

Chen Jiang wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said: "I am grateful in my heart, the King of Han is like God's help. I didn't know what to say for a while, so I threw myself on the ground."

"You sit," Gu Ao breathed a sigh of relief: "Actually, I didn't expect there to be so many. I thought that since the prefect Qiu did not abandon the city that day, he should be looking forward to the reinforcements from the imperial court. In the treasury of the Northern Army, at least There should be a month's food and grass...but I didn't expect..."

Chen Jiang answered, "...But I never expected that there would be a year's worth of food and grass..."

"You made a great contribution today." Gu Ao sighed.

Chen Jiang bowed his head: "I don't dare to do great work, but it's the King of Han's magic."

At this time, a voice came from outside the door: "Report—" Gu Ao handed the account book to Chen Jiang: "Take it away." Then he said to the outside: "Come in!"

I saw a scout rushing in, knelt down as soon as he entered the room, and said, "...report to the King of Han! Great victory! Taishou Yu was in Tianshui as far as Yuyang Road, ambushed the army in the mountains and forests, and beheaded 8000 people! Mr. Liao led the rebel army in Hejian The Ministry, from Tianshui, concealed and killed the fleeing soldiers, and beheaded 2000 people!"

"The battle report is here!"

"Yes!"

"Report—" Another report sounded, and Gu Ao said, "Come in!"

Another scout stepped in, knelt beside Shicai's scout, "Report to the King of Han! Great victory! General Dian and Mr. Huai led an army of [-] soldiers, holding the tokens of the soldiers, and swindled the city to open before it was dark. Gate! Now, the rebels have captured Shangjun!"

Gu Ao stood up and said, "Okay! Come, pass on this king's order, the anti-Rong rebel army is brave and fearless, loyal and courageous, has recovered Yuyang, Shangdang and other places, and this auspicious news is for the world to announce! To all the kings and counties, in order to promote the military strength of our army, we will also issue an order to seek talents, calling all families and those with ambitions from poor families to go to the north to fight against the army!"

"Yes!"
