The attendant walked quickly into the hall, knelt down in front of Han Zhongwen, "My lord."

"How is it? What did the King of Xiling say?" Han Zhongwen got up and asked eagerly.

The attendant looked up at him, and replied: "My lord, the villain has not been able to see the king of Xiling, and he has not even been able to enter the gate of the mansion! The people in the mansion said it was inconvenient, and the guards stopped him. There is no response to the notification. I have no choice but to come back and ask you first."

Han Zhongwen's face changed completely, his figure shook violently, and his tone became sharp, "Inconvenient? What's the inconvenience! Li Chenghua is so eager to separate the relationship, so eager to draw a line? It's already Tied to a rope, does he still want to escape to protect himself, or just abandon me like this?"

The attendants didn't dare to respond, but the guard leader who had been kneeling beside him couldn't help but said: "Your Excellency has learned! Last night, my subordinates did see the amulet of the son before letting them go. I really didn't expect..."

"Enough!" Han Zhongwen interrupted him, "What's the use of saying this now? Chu Mingyun and Su Shiyu have already been let go by you. Needless to say, they must have arrived at the southern border barracks long ago. Zhang You's matter was revealed and I broke up with you." Contact, now that the Southern Border Army is under their control, what do you want me to do?"

The guard leader also lowered his head, not daring to vent his breath.There was a dead silence. After a while, Han Zhongwen calmed down a little, but he ignored them and walked out of the hall.He walked all the way to the backyard, Liu Yunzi was sewing cold clothes in the room, when she saw him coming, she got up and smiled, "Husband."

"Ma'am." Han Zhongwen covered her hand, squeezed it tightly, and then said in a deep voice: "Go and clean up immediately, take Ziming and leave Shouchun, don't go back to your mother's house, find a safe place... "

"I'm taking Ziming, what about you, my husband?" Liu Yunzi hurriedly said, "Since we are leaving, my husband will go with us."

Han Zhongwen shook his head, "I have to stay. They won't let me go. If I leave, you will be implicated. How can you get away with it?"

"That concubine will stay with my husband!" Liu Yunzi said.

"Ma'am!" Han Zhongwen said with a heavy tone, "You can only die in vain if you keep it. What are you doing here? Listen to me, take Ziming and leave as soon as possible, just to preserve a little bit of my blood."

"Let someone escort Ziming away, but I won't leave." Liu Yunzi looked at him stubbornly, "I have been by my husband's side since I can remember, the clothes I wear are chosen by my husband, and the hairpin on my hair is from my husband. It also belongs to my husband, without you, I don't know how to live alone in this world."

Han Zhongwen couldn't help sighing, hugged her into his arms, and kissed her forehead lightly, "Ma'am, Han Zhongwen, how can He De, how can I have the heart to let you accompany me to die."

She shook her head with a gentle smile as usual.

At this moment, the attendant suddenly rushed in from the outside, so excited that he even forgot the etiquette, shouting, "My lord! My lord! The reinforcement's talisman has been found!"

"Found it?!" Han Zhongwen let go of Liu Yunzi, and took the soldier talisman offered by the attendant, "I haven't found it for so long, where is it hidden?"

"My lord, it's no wonder I couldn't find it before. It turned out that Luo Xin swallowed the soldier talisman! When disposing of the corpse, I opened him up and found it in the stomach!"

He rubbed the soldier talisman carefully with his thumb. Although some lines on it were blurred, it didn't affect it.Han Zhongwen's eyes gradually became firm as iron, and he clenched the military amulet tightly, "Okay, God help me. Then make another bet!"

"Husband, don't." Liu Yunzi grabbed his arm, "Let's surrender, the situation is settled, while we still have some bargaining chips, why not make an exchange and ask Master Chu and Master Su to let us go."

"You are too naive, ma'am, who are they, or do you really think that Chu Mingyun and Su Shiyu are kind people? What's more, I killed them that night, and after they surrendered, they didn't smash their corpses into pieces." Even if Duan is merciful, how could he let us go?"

"But husband..."

"Even if what you said is possible, how can I put my wealth and life on their one thought? The situation is settled? No, it is not yet determined! Now I can still fight to the death, and there is still a chance of life!" After Han Zhongwen finished speaking Turning to the attendant, he ordered: "You go to see the King of Xiling again, and tell him clearly that I am defeated, and I will not let him escape, so that he will completely stop thinking about being alone, and immediately send troops to support me!"

"Husband..."

Han Zhongwen took a deep look at Liu Yunzi, then forcibly pulled her hand away, and walked out without looking back.Only Liu Yunzi was left in the room standing where she was, her eyes finally condensed into tears and she slowly raised her hands to cover her face, knelt on the ground and wept softly.

The noise outside woke up Han Ziming who was sleeping in the inner room. He got out of the bed while pulling the long life lock that was sleeping crookedly, and pulled Liu Yunzi's arm in surprise, "Mom, what's wrong with you?" In the wet water, he hurriedly said, "Don't cry..."

Liu Yunzi hugged the child tightly, tears streaming down her face.

The ground trembled faintly, and the iron horses and glaciers were rolling. It was a large group of people approaching the barracks, and they could see a cloud of smoke and dust stirred up by the horseshoes in the distance.

"Report--! General, the enemy is coming, and they are already twenty miles away!"

"Understood. Send troops out of the camp and line up. Don't act rashly. Wait for my order."

"Yes!"

The scouts were ordered to withdraw from the tent of the Chinese army. Su Shiyu looked at Chu Mingyun beside him, and couldn't help but said: "Han Zhongwen didn't send troops to pursue him immediately, but waited until now to attack aggressively. He must have already grasped the imperial reinforcements. Your injury It's still very heavy, let me take this battle for you."

"Did I say I'm going to fight?" Chu Mingyun smiled, "Han Zhongwen was driven into a hurry, and he didn't even need his brains. It's useless to give him another [-] reinforcements."

"How to say?" Su Shiyu asked.

"What kind of soldiers do you think he sent?"

Su Shiyu thought for a while, "Both the reinforcement army and the Shouchun army have unstable factors, and it is difficult to fully control them. To be on the safe side, those who stay in the city should be the rebels, and those two armies must be sent to fight."

Chu Mingyun smiled and said, "My family's Shiyu is smart." He kissed him on the side of the cheek as he spoke.

Su Bai, who was standing behind them, looked away silently, feeling that he was going blind.

Chu Mingyun suddenly looked back, Su Bai met his gaze awkwardly, hesitatingly wanted to say that Madam, you and the young master are happy, just ignore yourself, but listened to Chu Mingyun's order: "Take the woman from last time Find it, hurry up."

"...Ah?" Su Bai couldn't react for a while, but woke up suddenly when he saw Chu Mingyun's eyes, "Yes!" He ran out in a hurry, passing by Xu Shen who was rushing into the account.

Xu Shen saluted and said: "General, the enemy is approaching, please issue an order!"

Chu Mingyun chuckled softly, "Bang the drums to prepare for the battle, and raise my general's flag."

The imperial reinforcements and the cavalry of the Shouchun City Army came forward, and they were mixed together. Thousands of people galloped forward, and the sound of horseshoes resounded like thunder.The sound of horns suddenly sounded in the barracks in front, powerful and high-pitched, and it came from a distance. Zhao Kejing raised his eyes and looked up. The horses under him kept shortening the distance. He could see more and more clearly that there were heavy soldiers waiting outside the gate, and the banners rolled under the dark and cold sky. , there was a word "Chu" on it, and he couldn't help being taken aback.

Although the chief general of the reinforcement army appointed Luo Xin according to Su Shiyu's wishes, Chu Mingyun would not entrust the entire army to him, so Zhao Kejing, the deputy general, was naturally Chu Mingyun's man.When he arrived in Shouchun that day, he was accidentally caught in a battle with the rebels. He obeyed Luo Xin's order and led his troops to retreat to hide in the mountains. He struggled to survive for several months. He even had to kill a lot of horses to eat. Even so, he still couldn't avoid death. Many soldiers, but fortunately the main force still survived, and they finally survived until the soldier talisman reappeared, and they were able to go down the mountain. However, they were ordered to fight again after a short rest, and the target was still the southern military camp.Although Zhao Kejing was full of doubts, the messenger didn't intend to explain anything to him, and Zhao Kejing had no choice but to obey his orders, but now the general flag in front of him was all too familiar. There were several counties and cities in three states, and a hundred miles of barren desert. Fight bloody battles under this banner.

There were murmured voices behind him, apparently the other cavalry also saw the general flag, and their moods became turbulent.They were already getting close to each other, Zhao Kejing suddenly reined in his horse and stopped, raised his right hand, and the people next to him waved the command flag knowingly, first the reinforcements slowed down, and the Shouchun army stopped in a daze when they saw this, and the team stopped after that. At a certain distance, they confronted the Southern Border Army, the horns were still humming, and the two sides were in a stalemate, with no movement.

"What are you doing? Who allowed you to stop without authorization!" The loud shout followed the people, and they stopped beside him angrily.

Zhao Kejing looked at the other party. The person who came was the messenger holding the military talisman. He led the Shouchun Army and was also the chief general of this operation. He couldn't remember the name, but only vaguely remembered that it was a county lieutenant from another place in Huainan, "I'm trying to find out what happened." Before, I didn't want to act rashly."

"Ridiculous! As a general, don't you know that military orders are like a mountain?" The county lieutenant shouted, holding up the military talisman, "Continue to attack!"

Zhao Kejing remained motionless, turning his head to look at the flying general flag in the distance.

The county lieutenant was furious, "Look clearly, the soldier talisman is here, are you going to disobey the order?" He turned his horse's head, held the soldier talisman high and shouted at the soldiers: "Go ahead and capture the barracks!"

There was some commotion among the people below, especially the Shouchun City Army who didn't know what happened, but they all lingered and didn't move.

"Bastard!" The county lieutenant pulled Zhao Kejing's collar, "According to the military regulations, I can kill now..."

A black shadow flew over, so fast that even Zhao Kejing had no time to react. In the blink of an eye, the county lieutenant let go of him, staring at the arrow piercing his chest in disbelief, before he opened his mouth, a mouthful of blood spattered on the opponent's armor up, and then fell off the horse's back on his back.

There was an uproar in the army.

Zhao Kejing was overjoyed when he saw the man holding the bow on the gate, "...My lord," he said loudly, "General Chu! It really is General Chu! Don't be on guard!"

The Shouchun City Army looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to do, but there were shouts from the side, which were sporadic and chaotic at first, but gradually became unified and clear.

After several months of struggling to survive between life and death, the future was gloomy. In the colder climate and withered vegetation, seeing comrades-in-arms died of illness or starvation one by one, the reinforcements were almost desperate, and they no longer even dared to hope to return to Chang'an. But they never expected to see Chu Mingyun here. They were still calm when they saw the soldier talisman before, but at this sudden moment, the reinforcements almost burst into tears, and they couldn't help cheering together: "General Chu! General!"

Su Shiyu stood in the camp, looking up at Chu Mingyun's back above the gate tower.Although he is in the camp and far away, he can clearly hear the outside sound with his martial arts, what's more, even those who have no internal energy can hear the loud shouting like a mountain.The shouts were full of joy and joy, but the color of Su Shiyu's eyes gradually became as dark as ink, and it was difficult to melt away the depression.

He suddenly remembered that he had asked Chu Mingyun a long time ago, who would the army obey if there were soldier symbols and his orders at the same time.

The answer is already evident.

And this is far from the prestige that a lieutenant or a general should have.

"My subordinate finally saw you..." Outside the camp, Zhao Kejing muttered to himself, and was about to urge his horse to move forward, but the opposite team suddenly parted from the road, and a woman came out and stopped at the two sides. Between the army, facing them.

Zhao Kejing was very surprised that no woman had ever appeared on the battlefield, but Shou Chunjun was even more surprised than him.Yunniang's husband and son-in-law are very popular in the Shouchun Army, and many people know Yunniang, and several generals were invited to her house for dinner and drinks. Appeared here suddenly, and came out of the enemy camp.

Yun Niang hugged the long sword in her arms tightly, as if she could draw warmth from the cold iron sword. She glanced around for a week, took a deep breath, closed her eyes and went back to that bloody dark night, she spoke loudly, with clear words , without ambiguity, the details of the branches are all mentioned one by one.

She is a woman, her martial arts are not very good, and her voice is naturally not very loud.The cavalry standing in front relayed what they heard to the back, and spread it one by one. Their expressions changed from confusion at the beginning, to shock, then to anger, until they heard the scene of massacre. His eyes were blood red, and he gritted his teeth, furious with hatred.

Thinking that they enlisted in the army, they were devastated, and all they wanted was to protect the stability of the country and the safety of their families, but now, their closest relatives have been brutally slaughtered, but they are still being tricked by the murderer!

Up to this moment, Han Zhongwen's reinforcements regulated by military talismans and Shouchun's army who relied on lies have all turned against each other, and the situation has completely changed.

After reorganizing the team, Chu Mingyun ordered to take advantage of the situation and counterattack Shouchun City.

The Southern Border Army, Shouchun Army, and imperial reinforcements jointly launched a surprise attack, and the rebels closed the city to resist.Drums were beating to shake the sky, weapons were shaking, arrows were streaming like rain, and fire oil was poured down along the city wall, burning fiercely.The fierce battle lasted until dusk, the sky was full of bloody clouds, and the city gate was broken.

When they entered the city, Han Zhongwen's family, who had not escaped in time, were killed by the rebels first. The angry Shouchun army rushed in and tore up his body.

Those refugees then returned to the city, some embraced and reunited with family members in the army, and some wept bitterly in front of their homes where everything was different.

In the twilight of the sheriff's mansion, Su Shiyu was silent and seemed to be thinking a lot. Chu Mingyun could easily guess that Han Zhongwen's death was exactly the same as the situation of King Huainan before. It is difficult to see through the thick fog.

Chu Mingyun hugged him from behind, resting his chin on his shoulder, and wanted to say something, Su Shiyu suddenly turned his head to look aside, Chu Mingyun followed him to look over, and saw a silver coin lying in a pool of blood on the bluestone floor. Longevity lock, shiny and bright, bloodstained.
