The remnant sun was like blood, shining on the vast land, a dim red light.
A young man, dressed in a white coat, stood on the ancient palace wall, looking south, like a statue, and was silent for a long time.
The high staircase stretched from the palace wall to the ground, and the ground was covered with a layer of solid ice and snow that had never been cleaned, and two officials in thick winter coats led a few palace servants to stand there.
One of the white-haired officials in an ancient, heavy dress stomped his feet, while breathing on his hands, and whispered to an older official next to him: "Lord Xiao Yin, the sun has set, it is getting colder and colder, it is better to persuade the Son of Heaven to return to the palace, if you freeze your body, then how can you get it?"
The old man next to him sighed softly, he was too old, he had to be supported by a palace servant to stand firmly, and when he sighed, the wrinkles on his face were even carved in stone, and he was motionless.
"Lord Baisi, let the Son of Heaven be quiet for a while.
Today's news disappointed the Son of Heaven, and he felt uncomfortable.
Alas, these days, the Son of Heaven has been looking forward to the good news from the Chu State, but he didn't expect to wait for such a result, the Son of Heaven is still young, how can he afford such a big blow. ” The two old men sighed in unison, slowly raised their heads, and looked at Zhou Tianzi Ji Kuo, who was standing high on the palace wall.
Behind them was the old royal palace, which was in disrepair and had become dim.
Occasionally, some palace maids or temple people walk slowly on the desolate palace road, just like two old men standing under the palace wall, and the entire Zhou palace is an old-fashioned autumn and twilight.
Zhou Tianzi Ji Kuo stood at the head of the Luoyi Palace wall, looking at the lifeless entire Luoyi, and then his eyes gradually turned south, exhausted his eyes, looked at the end of the sky, and sighed secretly.
These days, he has been waiting in the palace for good news, waiting for the good news of the assassination of the king of Chu.
As a result, it was the death of the general of Chu State, and Ji Kuo couldn't help but be disappointed.
The king of Chu despised the authority of the Son of Heaven and set up his own king, giving Wu Yue a bad start, and at the same time contacting the countries in the Yangtze River basin, and the power continued to advance northward.
At this time, if the king of Chu dies, the dragons of Chu are leaderless, and the southern countries compete for the food of Chu, and the war between them is weakened, and they will not be able to invade the north.
The vassal states in the north that were pro-Zhou could take advantage of the situation to expand southward and completely eliminate this great trouble, but now it is a failure.
He sighed leisurely, then turned his gaze to the northwest again, slowly rubbing his frozen hands.
To the northwest is the territory of the Jin Kingdom.
Now there is only hope for the Jin State, hoping that the Jin State will take advantage of the civil strife in Chu and send troops to recruit troops to pacify these princes with different surnames in the south who are disrespectful to the royal family.
At this time, the Jin army had already marched south, but just after a day's journey, it was caught up by a messenger sent by Zhao Jianzi, and the order was changed, from the south to the east.
Because the armies of Song and Wei have already arrived at the border of Wei and Jin, they are menacing and have no good intentions.
At the same time, on the Jin-Zheng border, the Zheng army was frequently mobilized and constantly increased its troops, and it seemed that it was also going to make a difference.
At this moment, Zhao Jianzi did not dare to risk sending troops south, in case Song Wei took advantage of it, so he had to send people to recover this southbound army, and decided to defeat the Wei and Song coalition forces first, and deter Zheng Guo, who was about to move.
Mengmen, the Song Wei coalition army is building trenches and setting up camps.
The armies of the two countries were stationed separately, only a few miles away from each other.
The banners of the two countries of Song and Wei were shivering in the cold wind, and the soldiers hurried to and fro under the banners, creating a tense atmosphere.
Across the Xiaohun River, the Jin State Forward Force and the Wei Song Team could see clearly, and the Jin State battalion was also busy in a hurry, making preparations before the war.
The army of the Song State was led by Qi Bao, Gongsun Ba was the deputy marshal, and Gongzi Dynasty was the vanguard.
The three of them hurriedly patrolled the barracks and stood on a high place looking at the Jin camp.
This vanguard army of the Jin State was so large that it could not be seen at a glance, and it should have been at least 15,000 people.
The three of them pointed to the Jin camp, discussed the strategy of attack and defense, and came up with a plan, and then Qi Bao took the two of them to the Song camp to discuss the plan with Xuanyuan Heng, the commander of the Song army.
Xuanyuan Heng had just inspected the barracks and returned from arranging for the garrison, but before he could disarm, he heard that the main general of the guard army had arrived, and hurriedly greeted the three of them in person.
Weiguo has Qi Bao as the main commander, Gongsun Ba as the deputy marshal, and Gongzi Chao as the vanguard, and there have been fierce internal battles.
At the beginning, although Beigong Xi and a group of doctors with real power waved their flags for Qi Leopard, Wei Hou Ji Yuan never agreed to hand over the military power to Qi Leopard, so the courtiers were deadlocked, and the matter of sending troops was almost in vain.
At this time, the army of the Song Kingdom arrived, and Mrs.
Wei Nanzi personally led the army to the Emperor Hill, and when the Marquis of Wei Ji Yuan heard about it, he hurriedly led the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces to welcome Mrs. and welcomed her and the Wei Army into the Emperor Hill.
When she came back with the army this time, Mrs.
Wei Nanzi made great contributions, and because of her special status and special status in the Song Wei coalition army, she was able to regain the right to speak.
Wei Hou Ji Yuan had a secret conversation with Nanzi, and when the court meeting was held again, he agreed to the proposal of taking Qi Bao as the commander of the Wei army, but with a proviso: with Gongzi Dynasty as the vanguard of the front army, all the right guards of Miyagi belonging to Gongzi Dynasty were transferred to the vanguard camp and transferred to the Jinwei border.
Qi Bao was happy that he was about to grasp the military power, and Beigong Xi thought to himself that although in this way, they would lose the palace guard power that directly trapped the Wei Hou Ji Yuan, but they could control all the military power in their hands, and for them the safety surname was better than only controlling half of the palace guard power, so that they could ignore the opposition of the Gongzi Dynasty and agree to come down with the river.
Unexpectedly, Marquis Wei ordered Gongsun Ba to be the deputy marshal, and the backbone of the Chinese army of this army was the men and horses that Gongsun Ba and Lu Boyu brought into Diqiu at the beginning, and it was clear that they wanted to monitor Qi Bao, afraid that he would take this army for himself.
Now the defense commander, deputy marshal, and vanguard officers are harmonious and sincere on the surface, but in private, they can't help but have some intrigues.
It's just that at the moment of the great enemy, they are all smart people, and they are not stupid enough to kill each other.
Qi Bao said: "Marshal Xuanyuan, I waited to observe the situation of the Jin camp and came up with a way to fight jointly with the Jin army, and now I have come to discuss with Marshal Xuanyuan." ” "Hehe, this is very good, Heng is about to invite the three generals to come and discuss the plan, come and come, the weather is cold, I will wait for the account to sit down, and then discuss slowly."
Xuanyuan Heng said and glanced at Gongzi Chao.

The two were old acquaintances when they were in the Song Kingdom, although they didn't have a good relationship with each other, they couldn't be regarded as opposites, but Gongzi Chao's face was gloomy at this time, his eyes were erratic, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he didn't even say hello to him.
Xuanyuan Heng glanced sideways slightly, and his ears couldn't help but sound a secret conversation in his ears about Princess Nanzi when he led the army to the west to give him a face-to-face lecture: " This goes to the border of Wei Jin, the generals of the Wei country are not in harmony, but this is the result of the compromise between the two major factions within the Wei country, knowing that it is not conducive to the war, but it has to be arranged in this way, the first battle may not be good for our army, but the internal troubles are worse than the external enemy, once the army is defeated, Wei Hou can take the opportunity to deal with Qi Leopard, in addition to this henchman, this is by borrowing the foreign enemy has been removed from the internal trouble, then Wei Hou will order you to command the two countries to fight with the enemy again, you must be careful yourself, in order to be safe.
Preserve your strength in case you fight again. ” "The last will obey."
"And" "Princess, please speak."
"General Xuanyuan, the Zi Dynasty is ambitious, he recruited henchmen when he was in my Song Kingdom, tried to grasp the outline of the dynasty, and after fleeing to Weiguo, he begged for mercy from the princess with clever words, deceived my trust, and was able to accommodate himself in Weiguo, but he joined forces with Qi Bao, Beigong Xi and other annihilators to try to control the political situation of Weiguo.
With this person, the two countries of Wei and Song are not at peace, and as the prince of the Song Kingdom, if he does something unfavorable to Wei Hou, it will not only be unfavorable to the princess, but also to the alliance of Wei and Song for hundreds of years.
The monarch, the marquis and I all mean that you have to get rid of the Zi Dynasty when you have an opportunity.
As soon as Qi Leopard died, Gongsun Ba was able to go to the person who was in the way, led the army of defending the country alone, and sincerely cooperated with the general to resist the great enemy of the Jin State. ” "Rest assured, princess, the last general has written it down."
Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Heng smiled slightly, and glanced at Gongzi again.
Gongzi Chao was preoccupied, and since he was transferred out of Diqiu, he knew that Nanzi intended to attack him.
When he offended Nanzi, he had to be ashamed and endure the dirt, serve with his body, and please Yu Weihou, hoping to please him and stabilize his position.
I didn't want Weihou Ji Yuan to hate him for slashing his brother, and now he was about to rely on Nanzi, so he sacrificed him.
Along the way, Gongzi Chao was terrified, not knowing whether the person entrusted by Nanzi was Xuanyuan Heng or Gongsun Ba, or just a pawn in the army as an assassin, and I don't know if Qi Bao and Beigong Xi also participated in the conspiracy and sacrificed him in order to make peace with Weihou and Nanzi, so that the wind was loud and the grass and trees were all soldiers, making it difficult to sleep and eat, and the mind was in a trance.
He sat like a walking corpse, as everyone entered the tent.
After pondering alone for a long time, he was suddenly awakened by the sound of the case, but he heard Xuanyuan Heng say: "In this way, our army echoes left and right, but before the main force of the Jin people arrives, we can defeat its vanguard first and frustrate its spirit."
General Zichao, what do you think?"
"Ah, very good, the Zichao agrees with the generals."
Xuanyuan Heng threw the tiger whiskers, raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, since everyone agrees, let's do this."
Come on, unfold the map, and let's discuss the detailed battle plan. ” Xuanyuan Heng's Chinese army marshal's tent had just been set up, and the huge military map had not yet been hung on the wall, unfolded by two soldiers, and all the generals leaned towards the map, and Gongzi Chao followed him, standing behind and looking at the map.
Suddenly, his mind flew back to the Imperial Castle He wore a white robe, had a graceful demeanor, held a bamboo flute, and wandered through the palace.
Nanzi was radiant and smiling, and appeared in front of him, with surprise and endless affection in his eyes.
It was the scene when he had just fled from the Song Kingdom to the Wei Kingdom.
The ear drum was buzzing, it was the sound of the commanders and generals on both sides talking about it, it sounded like a swarm of wasps, flying around his body, and they were saying something, but they couldn't hear it clearly.
"What the hell do I want" Gongzi Chao suddenly regretted deeply, remembering everything he had not cherished in the past, and his heart was full of confusion The sound of war drums became more and more dense, the lead clouds were thick, the pressure was getting lower and lower, and the wind was becoming more and more urgent.
The Qingji side took fifty chariots as the front, and 1,000 crossbowmen, 2,000 sword and shield men, and 2,000 spearmen formed a formation in a sequence of formations, relying on two peaks and valleys, forming a wedge shape to face the enemy.
A chariot of the Chinese army on the other side, with a big male character on the high banner, a halberd on the chariot and a sword, and Wang Sunxiong, who was full of beards, stood upright.
Qingji's eyebrows twisted slightly, and he said to himself: "It's strange, Wang Sunxiong led his troops to come, but he didn't attack that city, but only lined up outside the valley, what do you want?"
Ah Qiu knelt on the car, wearing half-body armor, wearing only soft clothes on his lower body, a sword under his ribs, no weapons in his hands, only pulling the reins of the four war horses in front of him, and laughed: "Childe, then do you still need to ask, Ji Guang, this dog, is afraid of Childe's prestige, how dare he go to the city to ask for hardship."
Once the war begins, he has to control several chariots, his ears must listen to the orders of the golden drum to advance and retreat, and his eyes must pay attention to the changes in the entire battlefield at any time, so as to prevent the chariot from falling into the enemy formation, and there is no long weapon to protect him, which is both tiring and dangerous.
There are two people standing on the left and right of Qingji, a marksman on the left, fully clothed in armor, his right arm without armor, holding a bow in his hand and carrying a crossbow on his back.
On the right stood Zaiqiu, wearing armor and carrying a double halberd, and there was no golden drum in the back of the chariot, his chariot was used to charge into battle, not to command the whole army.
Qingji shook his head slightly and said: "Don't talk nonsense, Wang Sunxiong is loyal to Ji Guang, and he is brave and good at fighting, if you talk about personal martial arts, he is not my opponent, and the combat command and dispatch of the two armies, he may not be under me."
Wang Sunxiong led his troops to come, and he must have a good intention. ” Next to him, he said proudly: "No matter what his intentions are, if he doesn't come to attack, then we will fight it." beat him down, and all intentions have become nonsense. ” Qingji laughed, raised his eyebrows and said: "No more hatred, no more revenge, you are simple-minded, but it's a good idea."
Since we can't guess what he meant, let's not guess, just defeat him.
Ji Guang has already given the order to go, fight with me Qingji, flee from the battle, cut off those who surrendered, and kill their entire families.
Therefore, this fierce battle is bound to be dangerous, so be careful. ” Ah Qiu tightened the reins in his hand, and said loudly: "Don't worry, son, give the order to march."
Qingji shook the cloak behind his shoulders and shouted: "Attack" On one side of the mountain, Uncle Sun Shaoguang and Ji Sun Xiaoman stood side by side on the boulder, looking at the battle situation under the mountain.
Behind them stood two maids who had been hired from the city.
The two of them were holding a yaoqin together, and they were also visiting the bottom of the mountain.
Although the mountain wind was cold, the uncle and grandson Shaoguang were so nervous that his palms were full of sweat, and he complained in a low voice: "The chief general of the first army, how can you risk yourself."
I also want us to play the piano and blow the flute here and watch it fight.
Really, everyone is nervous to death, how can they bother to touch the piano" Ji Sun Xiaoman was playing with a green jade flute in his palm, but his eyebrows were dancing and he was elated.
Qingji's action of flicking the cloak with one arm was seen by her, and she couldn't help but praise: "Wow, this action is really majestic, so charming." ” Uncle Sun Shaoguang glared at her and shouted, "Don't make noise, you're about to attack."
Really, as the main general, why should he personally lead the army into battle, it is really worrying. ” Ji Sun Xiaoman glanced at her and said disdainfully: "I don't know that this is the first time that Qingji and Wu Jun have fought head-on.
Qingji defeated the river at the beginning of last year, the prestige was frustrated, this more than a year, the Wu people's fear of him is getting smaller and smaller, the Wu people do not know the fear, he came to attack Wu to seize the city, I don't know how much more hands and feet, how many soldiers died, this battle he personally led the troops into battle, if the fight is neat, in the Wu people's hearts to rebuild his undefeated prestige, for the future battle can be greatly beneficial. ” "Hey, I can't see it, you still have this knowledge" Ji Sun Xiaoman arched his hand triumphantly and said: "See laughing, see laughing, how dare you, how dare you, I listened to General Jing." ” Uncle Sun Shaoguang couldn't help but be angry when she heard this, she snorted and said, "It's not bad, you don't have credit for yourself." ” At this time, the shouts from the bottom of the mountain came, and Qingji's army began to rush forward, the chariot galloped, swept away a place of dust, and stood on the top of the mountain and looked from afar, like a group of heavenly soldiers driving the clouds.

Uncle Sun shook his heart and jumped, and couldn't help but grab Ji Sun Xiaoman's arm, trembling with nervousness, and said in a loud voice: "It's a battle, it's a battle, you must be careful, why are you rushing to the front so dangerous, scared me to death, scared me to death, this damn enemy, rushed so fast, the left and right vans can't keep up."
Ji Sun Xiaoman said bitterly: "Hey, you hurt me, what's there to worry about, the first time you saw a war, why did your lips turn white with fright?"
Uncle Sun Shaoguang was shocked to realize that he was holding her hand, Uncle Sun Shaoguang shook her arm, and said angrily: "Why do you have no heart at all, what do we say in Weiguo Aicheng, I can't leave you, okay, I thought you really liked him, why did he go into battle to fight, you don't care at all, I know, anyway, you don't have a marriage contract with him, he has to have a good one, and you don't care if you marry someone else."
Ji Sun Xiaoman looked at her like an idiot, and shook his head sympathetically: "I really don't understand what you're worried about, who is he, the first warrior of Wu Kingdom, Qingji who walks beyond galloping horses, leaps to catch birds, and fights rhinoceros, what is there to worry about when he goes to the battlefield, no one will die in his turn, ahh It's really you, all the fuss, I have faith in him. ” Uncle Sun Shaoguang's eyes widened, and he looked at this little girl who was blindly worshipping, and then slowly turned his gaze to the dusty, murderous sound, and arrows raining down, and muttered, "What an idiot" "Who are you talking about, oh, really, what an idiot.
That Wang Sunxiong dared to drive forward and fight alone with Qingji, tsk tsk" Uncle Sun Shaoguang really didn't want to take her eyes off Qingji, but she still turned her head and looked at the little girl next to her sympathetically, Ji Sun Xiaoman, who looked at Wang Sunxiong who rushed towards Qingji with a spear Qingji and Wang Sunxiong stood steadily on the chariot, staring at each other coldly.
They all wore leather armor and war skirts, painted with raw lacquer, bronze rivets on their shoulders and breastplates, bronze gizzards on their heads, and sharp spears in their hands.
Behind them, as the dust and smoke rose, chariots roared like monsters.
Although the chariots of both sides rushed very quickly, they all took the commander's chariot as the core, forming a wedge-shaped attack formation of attack, closer, closer, and the two sides were still separated by about ten zhang distance, from behind the chariots of both sides, a rain of arrows came into the air like locusts.
Qingji's army is in the north, the wind is the north wind, and then it accelerates through the canyon between the twin peaks, and the wind is stronger, so the arrows are also shot farther and more urgent than the Wu army on the opposite side, and a rain of arrows on both sides has fallen, and many soldiers have fallen in response.
The sword and shield hands behind the "shield" chariot raised the rattan shield, leather shield, and wooden shield in unison, tilting at a certain angle to resist the rain of arrows and protect the vital point, while the chariot in front accelerated forward and fired arrows with their weapons.
The chariot approached, closer, and the horses neighed "Ge" Qingji and Wang Sunxiong spit out a word in a cold voice at the same time.
Ah Qiu fought with his arms, shook the reins of the horse vigorously, the war horse Xiaoxiao, and the opponent's chariot staggered, and then Qiu pulled out the big Ge from the chariot, waved a circle in the air, and slashed at the head of the armor soldier on the opponent's chariot.
When the hubs of the two cars were staggered, Qingji and Wang Sunxiong raised their spears at the same time, and the spears formed a line and stabbed each other mercilessly.
To be continued:
