Huaigui

It wasn't until He Lan Mingyue was forced to drink a glass of wine in Linhai that he gradually regained consciousness.

From the time of General Kuti's voice, he was in a trance and couldn't help himself. Even after listening to others chat many times and knowing what kind of person his father was, He Lan Mingyue could still find more unique memories from the different people he met.

It seemed like everyone was talking about more than him.

This feeling is very subtle, He Lan suddenly thought, maybe he has slowly collected and pieced together fragments from various sources all his life, and he can't completely restore the figure standing like an iron tower in his memory.

"...Hey, the last time this old man saw Maojia kid was more than 30 years ago. At that time, he was just a fledgling, and was secretly sent to the front line by the Murong family. The fight between us and Rouran was earth-shaking! Linhai sailed from Youyun to Beiting to rescue the Western Army. The Western Army was almost defeated at that time. The whole army was scattered and the famous general Wu Lei was captured. I thought I was going to see a group of old, weak, sick and disabled Unexpectedly, the heroic soul of the Western Army has not been destroyed.

"Originally, it was not his turn to lead the army. Unfortunately, your grandfather was sick, and the eldest son was helpless, so the younger son rushed to the battle with his seal. Boy Maojia was less than twenty at that time, like a little wolf. Yes, I was stunned to integrate the Western Army with demoralized morale and support our army.

"Later, you should have heard that he led 3000 people to surprise the Rouran Libo tribe and cut off the head of the tribal leader. From then on, the whole of Rouran, from Khan Yu Jiulu down to the common people, trembled when they heard his surname! Rouran The chaos caused us to win a great victory and return to the court... 20 years old, a young hero, really a young hero... Leaving the city from Luoyang, the old man went east and the other went west, and made an appointment for him to have another big victory in the future. The old man invited him Go to Zicheng to drink——

"At that time, he wasn't married yet!"

"I didn't drink this wine!" Kuti choked up when she said this, and immediately dropped the wine bowl, shaking He Lanmingyue's arm again with tears in her eyes, "It's a pity, it's a pity...he sold it for the Gao family. How could you rebel after spending your whole life?"

He was too emotional, and the words that blurted out were inappropriate. Before Helan Mingyue could react, Yu Wenhua beside him reminded without losing the opportunity: "Teacher, be careful with your words."

Kuti regained consciousness briefly, and sighed heavily again.

Helan Mingyue can't tell how he feels every time he hears about his father's past: he is like a contradictory body, he is the one with great ambition, and he is also the one with the warm spring breeze. The younger generation... But in the end, he seems to have the best memories for everyone, and the good fortune will last for many years.

Others say that he is a hero.

Maybe he's just... the most ordinary kind-hearted person.

Helan Mingyue smiled, and said to Kuti: "The general has deep love and righteousness. I will drink your wine for my father when I triumphantly—the most urgent task right now is to break through Shanhe Pass and create conditions for Ran Yunyang's Zhuquewei to go south. What does the general think?" ?”

Back on track after a short greeting, Kuti recounted the battle plan.

Lin Haijun's expedition this time is full of main forces, and the equipment is not known to be much better than that of Helan Mingyue's old headquarters in Yinzhou. Even the catapults were transported here not far away.

Three days later, many deployments were completed. Before leaving, He Lanmingyue and Yu Wenhua had seen those huge stones, and the young man kicked them with his feet: "Your Majesty didn't mention leaving Shanheguan's body? If he didn't say so, I'll smash it gone."

"Repair it after smashing it?" He Lan Mingyue said, "Be careful, he will ask you to pay for it."

Seemingly thinking of Gao Jing's sly smile hiding a knife in his speech, Yu Wenhua managed not to shudder: "What you said is also reasonable, then...don't use this thing unless it is absolutely necessary."

He Lan Mingyue asked: "It's so powerful?"

Yu Wenhua said: "Of course, this is the secret weapon I plan to break through the royal court of Duanbu. You have never seen their 'City of Thousand Years'. It is very ambitious. The wall is said to be nearly ten feet thick and indestructible. I Garrison Linhai, sooner or later you will have to fight to the death with Duan Bu - just like your Xijun and Xirouran are sworn to death - carefully developed for several years, it was supposed to come in handy, who knows that the emperor of Luoyang is a fake, I Linhai is a genius Do not work hard for him!"

He spoke quickly and anxiously, and He Lan Mingyue didn't hear some words clearly, but it was obvious that the young man possessed the self-confidence and arrogance that he lacked.Helan Mingyue was a little envious of him, and most of the hostility went away first.

Yu Wenhua was like a mirror, when he actually appeared in front of him, it reflected He Lan Mingyue's supposed life.

The descendants of the founding fathers, the only second son of a prince with a different surname, can walk sideways in the fief, and whoever sees him after entering Beijing will not respectfully call him "Young Master".When I was young, I studied literature and martial arts, and a famous teacher taught me the art of war. Even if I am not interested in marching and fighting, Guangzong Yaozu can live happily in the fief all his life. When he enters Beijing, he will be a white horse with a silver saddle...

At that time, he would always meet Gao Jing. They didn't say they were equal, but at least they really admired each other.

No exploitation, no deceit, none of those sins and pains.

He was supposed to meet and get acquainted with Gao Jing like this, and then talk about knowing each other and loving each other.

It's a pity that there is no going back in time, and there is no "if".

Helan Mingyue knows that he has had great luck now, and it is due to his own efforts, without others giving alms. Enjoy everything that should belong to him.

The world is like flowing water, it is just a dream, Helan Mingyue knows it all.

So he will envy Yu Wenhua.

But at least he is still young now, and the rest of his life is still long.

Yu Wenhua didn't know that he was distracted, so he talked about the follow-up plan to break through Shanhe Pass: "When Ran Yunyang comes, I will leave him a ruined wall!... Sigh, but you said that your majesty wants me to pay for it, so I can't pay for it." up."

He Lan Mingyue said: "The Qizhou army is condescending, have you ever thought that they will attack with fire?"

Yu Wenhua was stunned for a while, then he scratched his head as if he was joking, and the armor on his body vibrated slightly.Seeing that He Lan's expression was not intended to be playful, Yu Wenhua said cautiously: "This...isn't it?"

He Lan Mingyue asked seriously: "Why not?"

"Here, look, my black eagle." Yu Wenhua pointed out to him the guards on the hills in the distance, each of them had a black eagle unique to Linhai on their shoulders, which was only seen in Yuwen's army "The group of children are well-trained, and they are the most useful when scouting the enemy. They take turns to go to Shanhe Pass to observe, and if there is any abnormal movement, the high-level sentinel will immediately know the meaning."

He Lan Mingyue said "Oh": "How many rounds have you watched?"

"How many rounds?" Yu Wenhua was puzzled, "Two hours ago...there was no change."

He Lan Mingyue looked at Zhong Tian Lang Ri: "Isn't it still early?"

At the end of the speech, Yu Wenhua was puzzled and was about to ask more questions, when a soldier in armor rushed over and knelt down on one knee in a hurry, and wanted to announce: "Third Young Master!"

As soon as he heard this title, he became furious: "What do you call the third son in the army? If you don't know the rules, call him Young Marshal!"

"Yes, Marshal! The Black Eagle reported that the Qizhou Army seems to be transporting oil tanks to the tower."

After hearing this, Yu Wenhua looked at He Lan Mingyue with a wonderful expression on his face.The other party smiled innocently, as if to mean "I said so".

His handsome face was almost distorted: "You...your mouth is so crowed!"

But it was too late to redeploy and had to adapt accordingly. The vanguard of Linhai approached Shanhe Pass, and the confrontation between the two armies was only three or four miles away.And Helan Mingyue's old department was led by Tang Feiyi. According to Kuti's intention, he and the left-wing vanguard of the Linhai Navy bypassed the Hushan Passage, and were going secretly to prepare to attack the South City Gate——

After a brief breakdown, Yu Wenhua showed a trace of calmness as an army commander. He led the horse and turned on his back: "No, the teacher leads the army to the front. Don't put him in danger. I will replace him."

"I'll go." He Lan Mingyue suddenly grabbed the bridle of his mount.

Yu Wenhua was stunned: "...you? Aren't you injured?"

"If there is a serious injury, Gao Jing will not let me go to the front line. You pay attention to supplementing the defense line here, and deploy troops in real time to put pressure on Shanheguan. Even if they attack with fire, the current strength and weakness can only be reversed for a while."

What he said was reasonable, Yu Wenhua nodded after thinking for a while, seeing that he was going to lead the horse, he quickly flicked the whip to hold He Lan Mingyue: "You ride my horse, this is a good horse after Eight Horses!"

She became Helan Mingyue in a daze.

The four eyes met, suddenly there was some accumulation in his heart that disappeared like flying ash, he nodded and said: "Okay."

Yu Wenhua smiled, turned around and asked for another horse to dispatch as he said, Helan Mingyue suddenly called out to him: "Yu Wenhua!" It's coming in handy."

"I understand!" Yu Wenhua clasped his fist at him coolly, "Please leave the front line to you, and leave it to me later!"

Fighting side by side with him, He Lanmingyue never expected before leaving.

After the sound of the shattering of the oil tank retreated by the Qizhou Army, the flames of war ignited immediately.

The raging flames in front of Shanhe Pass blocked Linhai for the time being.For a while, the eagle owl and the iron horse Jinge intertwined into a net, covering the Xiongguan that guarded the capital in the past.

Linhai was unable to advance, and the offensive at the southern city gate was slowed down because of lack of support.

Seeing that the first wave of offensive was about to come to an end in vain, Fang Yuwenhua dispatched trebuchets to prepare for the second attack on the city.But the green land in front of him has become scorched earth, his eyes are scorching and smoky, and the loss of Linhai is far more serious than imagined.If it goes on like this... Even if Shanhe Pass is destroyed, the best of the inside will be brought out...

Could it be that he threw himself into a trap?

Dark clouds in the sky overwhelmed the city, and everyone was frowning.

Relying on his extraordinary hearing ability, Ye Sha Zhen Tian Zhong caught a sound of thunder hidden behind layers of dark clouds.There seemed to be a purple light flashing in front of her eyes, Helan Mingyue's heart skipped a beat, she couldn't help saying: "Heaven wants to help me..."

"How?!" Kuti was in need of being injected with enthusiasm, and was extremely anxious when he heard the words, "Now the heavy rain will extinguish the fire, otherwise we can only sit and wait for death!"

There is a drop of coolness on the eyelashes, which is fleeting.

There was a scorching momentum outside Shanhe Pass, and He Lanmingyue suddenly slapped his horse and drew his sword and rushed towards the enemy's formation.Shocked, Kuti hurriedly said: "He Lan! What are you going to do, you are dying?!"

As soon as the words fell, another burst of thunder exploded above his head.

In the Central Plains in midsummer, heavy rain swept across the world without warning.

This torrential rain was like a divine manifestation, and after it spread to Luoyang, an even more evil version was born among the people.But at the moment, Helan Mingyue in front of Shanheguan was blurred by the rain, and countless people behind him rushed towards the city gate of Shanheguan on the wet scorched earth, and Yuwen's veteran Kuti took the lead.

The ladder was put on the gate of the city, and the servants followed.

The general of Shanhe Gate ordered ten thousand arrows to be fired, the gloomy sky was the color of iron, the sound of wind and rain, the scorching sun in the early morning disappeared for a moment, and the sporadic flames struggled and groaned dying, and all disappeared under the horse's hooves after a while.

While shouting and killing, the dark sky was suddenly torn apart by a flash of lightning, and He Lan Mingyue's face lit up for a moment.

The rain curtain couldn't cover the cold arrows, and several archers in the city tower aimed at Kuti who was fighting bloody battle not far away at the same time!He captured this moment, and it was too late to remind others to ride back immediately——

Kuti had only known him for a few days,

But he is an elder and Yu Wenhua's teacher, so He Lan Mingyue thought of Li Ciyuan.

He lost it once.

He didn't want to face danger again and still be powerless.

"Be careful, general!" He shouted angrily, and the corpse that fell from the city tower lay in front of Helan Mingyue's horse's hooves. He quickly reined in the horse, and the eight steeds were really extraordinary, with their front hooves raised high and they could maintain their balance.He Lan Mingyue grabbed the reins tightly and drove the mount to leap over the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, but it was still too late——

The last three white feather arrows were put together on the bow.

Helan Mingyue left the rein with both hands, drew the bow and aimed at Kuti's front, regardless of the horse's back bump and the rain.He closed his eyes, and let go of the fingers pulling the string amidst the exclamation of the people around him!

The rain burst and splashed mud.

Two feathered arrows shot towards Kuti collided with the muddy white feather halfway, and the remaining one grazed Kuti's side armor, and the sixty-year-old man fell to the side.He Lanmingyue arrived in time, grabbed someone's long spear and turned around to stabilize Kuti with the gun body. After going back and forth with thrilling situations, the two finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you all right?" He Lan Mingyue panted slightly, before she had time to calm down, she asked Kuti quickly.

The old general has gone through a life-and-death consideration both physically and mentally. As the saying goes, it is hard to guard against a stab in the back, even if he has been on the battlefield for a long time, he can't help being afraid.He didn't answer He Lan's question, but shook his head very slightly.

But Kuti has a violent temper. He never thought that the archers at Shanheguan would have the guts to shoot arrows at him. He was stunned for a while, and immediately cursed: "Dog, mother-raised Qizhou army! Even your father dares to fight, it's not filial What the hell—adjutant, where did the adjutant go! Damn it, ask Yu Wenhua to send them the trebuchet! Fuck. Damn it!"

Full of concern, He Lanmingyue was caught off guard and yelled obscenities all over her head, she didn't understand why.After cursing him, Kuti gave him a hand: "Thank you, Helan boy, you dare to think and act just like your father... If it weren't for the three arrows rushing into the arrow array, the old man would have been seriously injured if he didn't die!"

Helan Mingyue hesitated to speak, so she nodded to him, and rushed forward again.

The heavy rain in summer came and went quickly. Half an hour after the siege, it was still unclear whether it was good or bad.

Lin Haijun set up a ladder to climb up with a weapon, and the opponent kept throwing stones condescendingly, and the sergeant had no choice but to step on the corpse of his comrade to move forward.Shanheguan City Tower is lonely and steep, and there are no mountain passes on both sides that can be directly relied on. If the sky is bright and the tower is attacked with fire, the two armies will fall into a stalemate.

Shanhe Pass was so difficult to attack, it was expected but never expected that the odds of winning would be extremely reduced.

Seeing that the city wall in front could not be attacked for a long time, He Lanmingyue rode back to defend, and Yu Wenhua's trebuchet finally arrived late.When the war drums were beating and the heavy rain was about to break, huge stones knocked on the east gate of Shanhe Pass.

The cascading sound was earth-shattering, and half of the tower collapsed immediately after being hit by a corner, and the soldiers climbing on the siege ladder took advantage of the situation to occupy half of the tower.Once the gap is opened, there will be no longer a long battle.The Black Eagle flag was planted on the turret, seeing that victory was in sight, and the news that came later was like a booster to boost morale.

"Report—Young Marshal, General Kuti, Lord Helan!"

"The old western army and the left-wing vanguard have broken through the southern city gate!"

Tang Feiyi and the others succeeded?

He Lanmingyue was at the bottom of the city tower preparing to lead the army to rush in when the city was broken. Hearing this, she felt joy and immediately turned her head to share this feeling with Kuti, but she suddenly exclaimed "My lord, be careful".

He had an intuition that there was a fraud, and was about to turn the horse's head when he heard some cracking sound!

"Cola" -

The pain in the back of his head exploded all the way to his back, his eyes turned black, and he fell straight off the horse.
