Don't run away to touch porcelain

After the engagement and envoy were finalized, the emperor sent all the officials to disperse, except for two Marquis who were former military generals, Marquis Dingdong and Marquis Zhaowu, who were left behind. While admiring the snow, eating snacks and drinking tea, we were chatting about the affairs in the south. Due to the small number of people, the atmosphere was not as formal as in the imperial study. The emperor poured tea for the two princes himself, and put a battle report on the table, " I didn’t mention it in the Imperial Study just now, but the Ping rebel army failed to attack the city a few days ago, although it’s a big taboo to change generals just before the battle, but I’m afraid that Zhang Wu won’t be able to capture Fengzhou City.”

"Zhangwu?" Dingdonghou smiled disdainfully, "Your Majesty, don't think that the old minister's speech is unpleasant, just relying on Zhangwu's kindness, how broad his vision can be when fighting, this person can't achieve great things. "

The emperor was also a little helpless, "Of course I know that Zhang Wu is mediocre, but now the court really can't find any good generals who are good at attacking the south. Now that the Nanpi and Nanhong countries are about to move, I already have a change of commander in my heart." Meaning, you need to be cautious when changing commanders in the south, not only someone who can capture Fengzhou City, but also good at defending the city and fighting in the water. Back then, General Lin was there to keep me safe in the south. Later, Ye Jinglan learned the skills of General Lin He also guarded the south side so that no water will be exposed, but there are no such generals now."

Marquis Zhaowu lowered his eyes and quietly sipped his tea, sighing a lot, "It's a pity for that child Jinglan."

"Do evil!" Ding Donghou wanted to say more angrily, but suddenly realized that the person in front of him was the emperor, and the one he wanted to accuse was the crown prince anyway, so Ding Donghou held back the words in his throat and snorted No more words.

The emperor naturally knew what Ding Donghou meant, how could he not be annoyed in this situation now, but he is gone, saying that no amount of more can solve the current problem, the emperor asked, "The two princes are both members of my Nanming army. Zhongjishi, the south is in urgent need of good generals, can any of you recommend them?"

Marquis Dingdong and Marquis Zhaowu looked at each other, and went over the generals in the court. Most of them who are good at fighting have reached their age and can't beat them anymore. Ji Canghai is naturally a good person, but it is a pity that he still has to guard the northern border. Marquis Zhaowu pondered for a long time before hesitating to say, "I don't know if the emperor knows that Old General Lin has a granddaughter named Liu Banjun. Although she is a woman, she is an old general. Ye Jinglan once talked with Ye Jinglan, and Ye Jinglan said that he often discussed with Liu Banjun about the military affairs in the southern border, and Liu Banjun must be familiar with the south."

Ding Donghou suddenly realized when he heard the words, "That girl made me see it next to Lao Lin's defense area back then. She was only 14 years old and dared to be a pioneer. She is very fierce."

The emperor shook his head when he heard the words, "Liu Banjun, I know, she can't do it."

Marquis Zhaowu persuaded, "Your Majesty, please follow the power urgently, and I hope you don't care about the difference between men and women."

The emperor continued to shake his head, "I was never that pedantic person, it's just that Liu Jing has been with my monarch and ministers for decades, before the crown prince let his son-in-law die in vain, and today I sent his son to Dongwen as an envoy. My daughter is going to lead the army in the south, how can I open this mouth."

Dingdonghou and Zhaowuhou thought about it, and felt that they couldn't open their mouths, so they had to think about other candidates. Dingdonghou tapped on the table with his fingertips, and he stopped for a while, "My lord, I heard that Old General Ye also has a second son, I haven't seen him since I haven't been in court for a long time, so I don't know how he is?"

Mentioning Ye Huizhi, the emperor nodded with satisfaction, "This man Zhilan Yuxiu has a solid foundation, I like it very much, I sent him to northern Xinjiang to learn to fight with Ji Canghai a few years ago, maybe he will be someone in a few years, But now it’s a little tender, and I can’t stand alone.”

In the turbulent wind and snow, Ye Huizhi sneezed several times in a row and ate several mouthfuls of snow for nothing. Ji Canghai pressed his lips together in the cold wind and looked at Ye Huizhi. Ye Huizhi shook his head to express that nothing happened. The group continued Hurry up.Originally, according to the previous plan, Ji Canghai would stay in Jumenguan for another three to five days, but news came from the imperial city that several countries around Nanming were about to move, and at this time, Wang Yi, who had gone far to the north, also heard the news The news said that Shuobei had increased its troops and was stationed near Baikou Pass. Ji Canghai had to go to Baikou Pass immediately after hearing the news.

The same as Fudangguan Wanfu Mokai Jumenguan is different, Baikouguan is flat and open, except for the high terrain, there is almost no danger to rely on. A few years ago, Ji Canghai and the Ministry of War wrote a letter to build a defensive city at Baikouguan. At that time, Ji Canghai was not as important in the army as he is now, so the emperor didn't pay much attention to it, and many courtiers headed by the household department opposed it. After all, Shuobei Kingdom's favorite thing to do is to find the border The purpose of raiding and plundering villages is to grab some supplies for the winter, but there are no villages around Baikouguan and they have never been disturbed by Shuobei. Appetite, compared to spending huge sums of money to build a preventive city at Baikouguan, no matter how you look at it, it is more beneficial to the people to use money to open rivers, build dams, reclaim wasteland, and set up government schools.Although the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Rituals opposed the construction of a city at Baikou Pass, they were indeed thinking about people's livelihood. At that time, the Ministry of War and Ji Canghai did not insist on it. The incident rarely happened, so the construction of the city was delayed.

When Ji Canghai and his entourage arrived at Baikou Pass, it was already dark, but Baikou Pass was not peaceful, the shouts of killing shook the sky, the lights of torches were everywhere, and the Shuobei Army seemed to have received an order in the snowstorm Gradually retreated in an orderly manner and reorganized their formation, and the Nanming army also re-established a defensive formation. The north wind hit the faces of the Nanming soldiers head-on, fierce and harsh, but the Nanming soldiers stared nervously at the blackness not far away. The Shuobei army, which was almost integrated into the night, did not dare to slack off in the slightest. The Shuobei army was like a wolf lurking in the dark night, and would show its fangs at any time and rush up to bite more fiercely.

Ji Canghai threw his luggage to the tent guards, and led his men to the front to look for Cheng Zhongyi, the general of the Baikou Guan camp. At this time, Ye Huizhi and several Longxiang guards had already changed their weapons, and each of them was still carrying their own bows and arrows. .Cheng Zhongyi is over 40 years old, and it is very easy to find by following his loud voice. At this time, the two sides have temporarily ceased fighting, and Cheng Zhongyi is busy commanding the withdrawal of wounded soldiers, adjusting the number of troops in various places according to the Shuobei offensive just now, when he suddenly saw Ji Canghai, Cheng Zhongyi was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he didn't see anyone else, and yelled in a loud voice, "General Ji, it's just in time for you to come, let your people get good guys to replenish the source of troops, is the Shuobei Kingdom crazy? From evening to now, we have charged four times, and Lao Tzu lost 300 soldiers, by the way, how many people did you bring?"

Ji Canghai looked back at the dozen or so people behind him, "That's all."

Cheng Zhongyi's expression was as if he had eaten shit, he thought for a while and said in resignation, "Okay, it's better than nothing, this damn Beifeng."

Ji Canghai must come in the face of the wind and snow, because he knew the relationship with the north wind, and Baikou Pass was difficult to defend. With such a heavy snow blowing from north to south, Cheng Zhongyi's defenders became more and more difficult. Not to mention that the shooting range of the arrow was shortened by half, and even the aim was almost gone, while the Shuobei army was just the opposite. Taking advantage of this advantage, the Shuobei army rushed up the high slope with ease, and in the end they could only force the defenders of Baikou Pass to fight each other. At this time, the number of people connected with Baikou can't take advantage of it, it can only be tough, but fortunately Cheng Zhongyi is a tough guy, and the soldiers he leads are also particularly good at fighting, otherwise Ji Canghai would not have placed him here.

"Before I came, I had already sent someone to answer Hancheng with a talisman to dispatch troops. If we can hold on tonight, reinforcements will arrive at the latest tomorrow morning, and the difficulty of Baikou Pass will be solved."

He said he was going to stay for one night, but this night was not easy to keep. After hearing Ji Canghai's words, Cheng Zhongyi knew that it was difficult and didn't say anything, but just spat heavily on the ground, "Fuck/him/mother, who is afraid of whom? !"

About half an hour after Ansheng, the Shuobei Army launched another charge. They probably knew that Nanming's reinforcements would arrive if they dragged on. Taking advantage of the right time and place, the Shuobei Army launched a more violent attack than ever before. Compared with the previous few times, it seems that now Shuobei has no main direction of attack. There are heavy troops everywhere, and all-out attacks are everywhere. Even if the garrison at Baikouguan is tough, the people in Shuobei are tough and good at fighting. Yes, not to mention that the number of people is not dominant.Cheng Zhongyi had brought a team of troops to roam among the three armies to support him, and he would go there to help resist wherever he couldn't resist. With Ji Canghai sitting in the rear, Cheng Zhongyi was less worried about the future and became more brave, but Nanming The army was still showing signs of decline. At this time, the messenger rushed all the way to report, "General Ji, General Huang Ying is leading people to support the Chinese army and can't get away, but a hole has been torn in the west. Please transfer from another way." Quick help."

Ji Canghai frowned. At this moment, there was no soldier to dispatch. Just as he wanted to go to support himself, Ye Huizhi called out to General. Ji Canghai looked at Ye Huizhi. Under the firelight and in the snow, Ye Huizhi Looking at him with bright eyes and bright teeth, Ji Canghai knew what Ye Huizhi wanted to say, so he hesitated and nodded, "Go."

Ye Huizhi replied yes, and immediately headed west with Long Xiangwei, Ji Canghai grabbed Xu Kai, Xu Kai turned around and said "I know", and quickly followed the rest of Long Xiangwei away. Even if Ji Canghai didn't confess, Xu Kai and the other Long Xiangwei knew that they must protect Ye Huizhi. Ji Canghai didn't need to do anything extra. Xu Kai felt that General Ji was not as good as he promised Ye Huizhi to go to the front line generally calm.

Because a gap was torn to the west, the Shuobei Army's forces were leaning towards the west, trying to tear up the small gap completely.Ye Huizhi was on the battlefield for the first time. He joined the battle with Long Xiangwei, and he didn't even have time to think about whether he wanted to kill people. The battlefield was like a huge meat grinder, with fiery blood and cold swords at the center of the vortex. Everyone's eyes were red and they wanted to kill each other hoarsely. There are only two simple things here, kill or be killed.The Shuobei army rushed into the Nanming army in a group, and Ye Huizhi rushed into the Shuobei army with a spear in his hand, and saw the cold light of the spear/spear in his hand flashing like thunder, and there was boiling excitement between the picks and spears Hot blood splashed all over his chin and skirt, Ye Huizhi didn't have time to experience the feeling of killing someone for the first time, his hand holding the spear/gun tightened, he swung the spear sideways, and instantly knocked down the Shuobei army around him with great force.Ye Huizhi and more than a dozen Longxiang guards went into a flock like wolves and slaughtered the Shuobei army. His armor was soon stained with blood, and the torn holes in the Nanming army became smaller and smaller. In the end, it was finally wiped out by the pincer attack from inside and outside, but the offensive of the Shuobei army on the periphery was still fierce, the wind and snow gradually became weaker, and the Shuobei army could not see the end as far as the eye could see.

Cheng Zhongyi is a fierce general, he was still willing to come back to treat his wounds after being hit by three arrows and still stabilized the situation of the Chinese army. He and Ji Canghai were both at a high place and could see the whole situation below. The military doctor who wanted to give him painkillers snorted and tore the last undrawn arrow out from his shoulder. The arrow with flesh and blood was thrown on the ground. Cheng Zhongyi signaled the military doctor to bandage him, and he said yes as if nothing happened. Ji Canghai said, "General, if this drags on like this, I'm afraid that if we can hold the Baikou Pass, we will suffer heavy losses. Is there any other way?"

The wind and snow gradually died down, and even the moon was quietly exposed. At this time, the visibility has improved a lot, and the commander-in-chief of the Shuobei Army can be vaguely seen in the distance. Ji Canghai pointed in the direction of the commander-in-chief and said, "You come here Sit down, I will shoot the enemy coach."

Cheng Zhongyi became anxious when he heard that, "How can you go!"

Looking at the battle situation, Ji Canghai calmly explained, "Even if it's me, I have to go deep into the Shuobei Army to have enough distance to shoot and kill the enemy's commander. You can't find anyone in your battalion who is better at archery than me. I won't go." Who is going?"

Cheng Zhongyi and Ji Canghai are the same kind of people. They will never let soldiers spend a hundred lives to do what they can do with one life. Exceptionally, Cheng Zhongyi straightened the bandages he had just wrapped up, and raised his steel knife again, "Go together, I'll cover, you just shoot and kill the bastard on the opposite side!"

Ji Canghai nodded in agreement, but suddenly saw a change in the battle situation below. In fact, at this time, there was more than one Ji Canghai with a godlike arrow at Baikouguan. What Ji Canghai thought of, Ye Huizhi also thought of it. The enemy commander, Ye Huizhi, had already made up his mind. He led Long Xiangwei to fight and retreat out of the battle, and found more than a dozen good horses. A group of people rushed in just like the Shuobei army just now. The enemy camp tore open a gap, Ye Huizhi and Long Xiangwei rushed in on horseback, blood and flesh flew everywhere they passed, but they were few in number, and were soon surrounded by groups, and the battle group rampaged in the Shuobei army , even if he couldn't see it clearly from a distance, Ji Canghai could still tell that it must be Ye Huizhi, his heart was beating violently, Ji Canghai grabbed his spear/spear and flew on his horse and galloped away almost instantly, Cheng Zhongyi tensed After that, his eyes still kept on staring at the battle situation below, Cheng Zhongyi thought that Ji Canghai rushed into the battle situation because he wanted to seize this ready opportunity to shoot and kill the enemy's coach, and his ambition to fall into the battle would be dead or alive, Cheng Zhongyi thought that his subordinates Sure enough, they are all good, if those boys come back after this battle, he will definitely get drunk with them.

Ye Huizhi and Long Xiangwei had no intention of retreating in the Shuobei Army, and they were still fighting forward with their regiments in their arms. After the visual distance was sufficient, Ye Huizhi shouted to cover me, and Long Xiangwei responded in unison, taking advantage of the situation to send Ye Hui With his horse guarding in the center, Ye Huizhi put down his spear and drew three arrows in a row. He flew up on the back of the horse, and the moon-watching bow was pulled to the extreme. The frost is like the condensed light of the river and the sea. Three arrows fly out at the same time. It is the fury of thousands of horses. The three arrows are as fierce as a strong dragon and as fast as a meteor. , An arrow hit the enemy commander's eyebrow, and the last arrow pierced the enemy commander's heart. The battlefield fell into a stillness almost instantly.

Yan Lianhuan, the famous stunt of Nanming sharpshooter Ye Jinglan, reappeared on the battlefield.
