wife and king

The next day, Cheng Yuxiang took Yan Cangling's secret letter and crossed the river with the help of Zhang Erlao.When approaching the river, Prime Minister Cheng walked up the water, stunned a soldier who had escaped from the team, dragged him into the dense forest, took off his armor and replaced it with himself, and then blatantly appeared in front of everyone's eyes gone.Fortunately, when he arrived at night, when people were most distressed, no one cared about him, so he could easily take the secret letter in his hand, penetrate the heavy army, and go to a distant place.

After Cheng Yuxiang left, Zhang Erlao had been observing in secret. When the sun rose, he did not see any commotion in the army, so he returned to inform Yan Cangling of the news.

Yan Cangling thanked Zhang Erlao, and then informed everyone that Cheng Yuxiang had successfully passed through the army. Ji Chongde smiled knowingly, and turned to ask Yan Cangling. How long does it take.

Yan Cangling answered honestly, at least five days.

Ji Chongde said, then the deployment will be completed within these five days, and it is best to break through the defense line of the imperial army on the day when the army rendezvous.He unfolded the map drawn by Ji Linchuan based on the information provided by Zhang Erlao, pointed out all possible breaches one by one, and finally agreed on a plan to be implemented five days later.

On the day when the plan was implemented, as if by God's help, the rain stopped for a while, and a thick white fog formed on the river, making it impossible to see the situation on the other side at all, and the wind was blowing southeast, which was a favorable wind for Yan Cangling's side.

The white mist was a little troublesome for Yan Cangling's army crossing the river, but it obscured the opponent's vision and confused their sight.

Yan Cangling ordered several soldiers with good water skills to board the prepared big ferry, planted the flag of the Heavenly Army on the bow, and placed several scarecrows in the boat, and then sailed to the opposite bank, while the real main force went to the ferry. He picked up the small bamboo raft that had been made in advance, and rowed from all directions to the hidden place on the opposite bank.

The big ship moved slowly through the clouds and mists. In the quiet night, like a giant lion waking up from a deep sleep, it opened its bloody mouth and swallowed the white mist into its stomach.Seeing it from a distance, Chen Rao immediately ordered the troops to be rectified and formed. At the same time, he called the crossbowmen to light the rockets. After the big ship came into range, they spared no effort to shoot dense rockets, forming an overwhelming giant net covering the big ship.

The scarecrow on the boat was ignited immediately, and the fire quickly spread to the big boat, but the soldiers on the boat calmly sailed the big boat to the opposite bank. The soldiers stopped firing arrows.Just at the stall where shooting arrows stopped, Jiang Fenglai, who was hidden in the boat, rushed out of the boat, rolled on the spot, drew his bow and shot, a rocket broke through the airflow in an instant, and nailed it in with lightning speed. In the body of a general, the momentum was so powerful that the general took a few steps back, until he hit the top of a tree and stopped, he lost his breath.

When the general died, the morale of the army was shaken. Jiang Fenglai and several archers took advantage of the commotion and shot several arrows one after another, igniting the surrounding tall trees and igniting a raging fire. forming.The big ship ran aground, and the fire on the ship also burned to the ground. Jiang Fenglai jumped into the water, quickly swam to the prepared backup ship, stood on the center of the ship, and shot a few more arrows, killing several people.

Almost at the same time as Jiang Fenglai shot arrows to kill the enemy general, the people led by Yan Cangling also quietly circled to the rear of the imperial army and killed them on the shore. Before they could react, the imperial army was caught off guard and suffered countless casualties.

Chang Desheng held back in the camp for many days, full of resentment, and when he got ashore, he roared and raised his Mo Dao to kill the imperial army's supply team.Ahhh, a tiger roared, the mountains trembled violently, the wind rumbled, and a lunge fell on a person who wanted to plot against Yan Cangling. He opened his bloody mouth and bit off the person's head, leaving blood all over the ground and brains flying everywhere. The scene was bloody and disgusting.

The sound of killing shook the sky, the sound of drums was beating, and there was an endless rumble between the sky and the earth. The huge fire that ignited lit up the dark sky. Yan Cangling was soaked in blood, and he cut down several people with a random slash. , to go to the grain and grass.

The fire on the shore was getting bigger and bigger, and many tall trees fell down one after another under the attack of the fire, and the screams of shock and pain rose to the sky in an instant.And the logistics team in the rear was also being attacked by Yan Cangling and others, and it was in a mess.

However, due to the relatively small number of our own troops, when they reached the food and grass storage place, many people had already had a lot of color on their bodies. Yan Cangling was not surprised. Kill the enemy.And at the moment when the torch was thrown into the air, Ah Wu jumped up, bit the torch, kicked off his four legs, quickly changed shape among the enemies, and threw the torch on the grain and grass.

The flames shot up into the sky, and the grain and grass ignited with a crackling sound. Yan Cangling raised his brows with joy as he saw that he had succeeded. In a blink of an eye, he saw the golden cavalry approaching in front of him. He didn't dare to fight.

Due to the absolute superiority of the opponent in terms of numbers, even though Jiang Fenglai's fire attack distracted part of his attention and wiped out some of the enemies, the Xingtian army was still at a disadvantage and was soon surrounded by the imperial army.

Seeing that there are fewer and fewer people around him, cold sweat drips from Yan Cangling's forehead. Forcibly crossing the river is a risky move. Their trip is completely a gamble with their lives. He is not afraid of future battles at all. If he loses, he can only bury his dead bones here.

Fortunately, with God's blessing, when Yan Cangling and the others couldn't hold on, the sound of rumbling iron hooves suddenly came from behind. It was so powerful that it seemed that thousands of troops were galloping. When Yan Cangling looked back, he saw the imperial army Behind them, a red flag was raised: Xingtian!

Song Lu and others have arrived!As soon as the reinforcements arrived, the morale of the Xingtian army was greatly boosted, and they had unlimited strength in waving the sword in their hands.Yan Cangling immediately purges the troops and arranges formations to deal with the imperial army.

"Hahaha, Chen Rao, you bastard, why don't you quickly make way for the old man, stay here, are you going to give the head to the old man!" A loud laugh rushed into the sound of killing, and a man descended from the sky on a steed , It fell on the head of a general impartially, blood flew all over in an instant, and the general was killed immediately.

"Father!" Yan Cangling shouted excitedly, his hands kept moving, and he gained a little more strength, "You are finally here!"

"Mu Qing, you boy, you haven't come to see me for a long time, respect and honor your adoptive father!" The person who came was Yan Cangling's adoptive father, General Weicheng. The tip of the nose said, "Boy, wait until I chop off Chen Rao's head, and then I will settle accounts with you." After the words fell, he rushed to Chen Rao first.

With the help of his adoptive father, Yan Cangling's pressure was relieved immediately, and he immediately asked the flag bearer to command the army according to his instructions and organize the team.

As soon as the Acropolis came, he broke into the enemy's army like a bamboo shoot, cut down several people's lives, and made the army's morale fluctuate, everyone was red-eyed and killed.

Ah Wu roared loudly, shocking everyone's heartstrings and making everyone's blood boil.

The sound of war drums was played in full force, and the sound was endless, as loud as a boulder rolling down. This battle was fought from night to dawn. When the red sun hung high in the sky and illuminated the earth, the sword of the Acropolis had already been set. Put it on Chen Rao's neck: "Hahaha, Chen Rao boy, you're going to catch him without a fight. What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for the old man to dedicate your head to that bastard An Tianren!"

Chen Rao's face turned blue, and he turned his head to look at the golden cavalry behind him who was in danger, and sneered: "General Wei, you see my life is in your hands, my golden cavalry is still in a stable formation, you think you have captured me Will you be able to control the overall situation?"

"Your life is certainly worthless, but soldiers should not lose their lives for nothing because of you alone. It is good to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but in troubled times, foolish loyalty will only make everyone fall into dire straits." A voice from one person Suddenly cutting in, the crowd backed away like a tide, and saw Ji Chongde coming out of it, walking towards Chen Rao, "General Chen, long time no see."

"Ji Chongde?!" Chen Rao was shocked, "Unexpectedly, you, who have always been loyal to the emperor, betrayed the Holy One!"

Ji Chongde's face remained unchanged, and he moved his feelings with reason: "If the emperor is not a minister, why should the minister be loyal to the emperor. The emperor and the emperor are the ministers, and the minister is the foundation. There are ministers and there are emperors. Now the emperor is stupid and incompetent. He regards the ministers as fish and meat, and kills them at will. If we don’t put it in our eyes, we will feel cold as ministers, so why should we be loyal to the emperor?”

Chen Rao's face was tense and he didn't say a word.

Ji Chongde struck while the iron was hot, and continued to reason with Chen Rao. Every sentence hit the point of gravity, and soon shook Chen Rao's heart, and even the soldiers around him began to loosen. There is a tendency to throw away armor and armor.

"General Chen," Yan Cangling paced up, and then stabbed an arrow in Chen Rao's heart, "A soldier should take it as his duty to protect the country and his family, but when the two countries in the Western Regions invaded the territory of our Huan Dynasty, the emperor's army I retreated halfway. I led the army to the front and fought back the enemy. In the end, I was killed by a traitor and died on the battlefield. Now I am resurrected from the dead and beat the enemy back. The emperor will not reward me, but will take my life. This is How reasonable!"

Chen Rao remained silent, and the tense lines on his face gradually loosened. Ji Chongde and Yan Cangling looked at each other, and continued to attack slowly. Finally, at the end, he broke through Chen Rao's inner defense, and he let out a sigh of relief.

A sound of helplessness drifted into the smoke and dust, Chen Rao looked at the soldiers around him, all of them were full of anticipation, with a light of hope.The emperor is stupid, the villain is in power, this troubled world should have changed, but they have been holding on to the so-called loyalty.You should worry about the worries of the people and take pleasure in the happiness of the people, instead of caring only about your own selfishness and disregarding the life and death of the people.

Chen Rao finally surrendered, and as soon as he surrendered, all the generals also surrendered.Ah Wu was so excited that he jumped to a high place, looked up and roared, and the armies of the two sides also raised their guns and cheered for the truce. Yan Cangling looked at Chen Rao, nodded and smiled: "General Chen, thank you."

Chen Rao nodded and said no more.

The battle of crossing the river ended here, but Yan Cangling did not subdue the troops of the imperial army, but instead gave them some food and grass, and asked them to stay here temporarily until the Xingtian army invaded the capital, and then returned to the capital to prevent them from returning Later, he was dispatched by Wang Enyi.Chen Rao understood, and ordered everyone to stay where they were, and return to Beijing after Yan Cangling's army had left for a few days.
