The waves on the river bank washed over, then rolled up a bloody red and receded. When the dust cleared a little, the cavalry could be seen charging. The King of Yan's ears kept ringing with a "buzzing..." sound. His face was ashen, and he was leading a group of cavalry, drawing his sword and charging southward.
"Kill King Yan!" Suddenly a roar came from behind, and the sound of horse hooves suddenly became faster.
The King of Yan was furious. He turned around, raised his sword and swung it forward, "Follow me and kill me!"
The cavalrymen around him immediately rushed out first, and soon there were clinking sounds of fighting and screams. In front of the "Qu" flag in the smoke and dust, a strong man was seen standing in the middle, unstoppable! That man should be Qu Neng, a general of the government army.
Qu Neng was very skilled and flexible in using the spear, and no one in the Yan army could defeat him. Many of them were stabbed and fell off their h
Zhu Gaoxu led several cavalry units to sweep across the battlefield. At this time, he saw swords and spears everywhere in front of him, and an unusually sturdy man in the middle. Who else could it be but Ping An?Today's battlefield is located in the rear camp of the Yan army, and there is no sign of reinforcements from the government troops; but at this time, Zhang Yu of the Yan army is making a roundabout way to attack. Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoxu felt more at ease and rushed straight to Ping An.Unexpectedly, Ping An could still laugh? He only heard the guy in front of him laughing and cursing, "Prince Gaoyang is running for his life so fast, I'm afraid I can't catch up!""If you are surrounded, don't run if you have the guts!" Zhu Gaoxu replied.The two armies kept on marching, the distance between them was getting closer and closer with the sound of horses' hooves. Zhu Gaoxu and Ping An had a tacit understanding and rushed in each other's directio
The wilderness was filled with smoke, and rolling dust and gravel mixed with ash, smoke, and debris, like a muddy flood sweeping in! The groups of running infantry were like dams on the river bank, collapsing!The battlefield was out of control, and the sky and earth seemed to be collapsing and the earth was splitting... At this moment, there was a "crack" sound, and Li Jinglong looked up and saw that the tall general's flag was blown down by the wind!"Why? Why!" Li Jinglong, with disheveled hair and open arms, shouted at the top of his lungs in the strong wind.The soldiers around him all advised that it was time to run away!Li Jinglong's face was distorted and pale, and he shouted in shame, "I attacked Yan rebels from both sides and they have been defeated! Why? Who is to blame?" He almost cried, stretched out his hand to grab a general, and shook the man desperately, "Don't blame me this time, really don't blame me, Yan rebels have already been de
The huge banner of "Fengtian Jingnan" fluttered in the wind. The cavalry on the road was very powerful, slowly passing through the territory of Linyi County and heading towards Jinan Prefecture.At this time, several men shouted on the roadside, "The King of Yan is wise and powerful, and we are willing to serve you!"The King of Yan, who was riding on his horse, glanced to the side and saw four strong men in plain clothes kneeling and kowtowing on the side of the road. At this moment, one man suddenly stood up and ran towards the road, but the cavalry of the imperial army immediately stopped him."Your Highness, Your Highness..." the man shouted excitedly.The Prince of Yan whipped his horse whip, and when his guards moved aside, he saw the man running over and grabbing the horse's belt, saying, "I am Ji Gang, a student from Linyi. I am skilled in archery, horse riding and shooting. I beg Your Majesty to take me in!"There are actually people who
"The best military operation is to attack the enemy's plans, the next best is to attack his alliances, the next best is to attack his troops, and the worst is to attack his cities."The Yan Wang army crossed the Daji River and defeated Li Jinglong's remaining troops again, and was approaching the city of Jinan. At this time, Yao Guangxiao came to the army and had a few words with the Yan Wang.There were not many people around him, all of them were Prince Yan's confidants, and Zhu Gaoxu was among them.Several riders stood at the foot of Jinan City, watching from a distance of several hundred steps, not daring to approach. The black muzzles of the cannons on the top of the city walls were facing the outside. Jinan was the largest city on the ground in Shandong Province, and it had all kinds of heavy weapons. The towering towers and tall city walls made people feel very depressed.Yao Guangxiao's voice continued, "The Art of War by Sun Tzu refers to the
First, Sheng Yong led his army to attack the camp outside the city at night, then Tie Xuan pretended to surrender, and the King of Yan also repeatedly sent people to persuade them to surrender... Everything was of no avail, and in the end they could only fight each other in Jinan City separated by a thick and tall city wall.In order to prevent the government troops from going out of the city to counterattack, a fortification was built outside Jinan City, with fences and trenches, which were built out of the range of artillery shells. Zhu Gaoxu rode a horse behind the fence to inspect the battlefield, and resolutely refused to cross the trenches."Kill! Kill..." A huge fire was rising up from the city wall. Many soldiers were holding shields and pushing ladders, shouting as they rushed towards the city wall. The air was filled with thick smoke, including white gunpowder smoke and black smoke from burning kerosene.Rockets flashed in the smoke like fireflies
The King of Yan finally withdrew his troops.As soon as the troops besieging the city withdrew, Li Jinglong immediately received an imperial edict from the capital, summoning him to return to Beijing immediately!...A team of cavalrymen escorted Li Jinglong's carriage as they headed south. Paddy fields gradually appeared on both sides of the post road. The rice in the fields had just been harvested, and bare rice stalks appeared in the turbid water, which was simply lifeless.Perhaps due to the fatigue from the long days of traveling, Li Jinglong in the carriage looked very haggard and had long lost his previous vigor and vitality.His hair was messy, as if a lot of white hair had grown in just a few months, making it look gray. The lining collar of his robe was still exquisitely embroidered, but it was wrinkled around his neck like a used handkerchief.Li Jinglong opened the curtain woven with rushes and saw a solitary white bird flying over the
The autumn in Peking is particularly bleak. The flowers, plants and trees do not change slowly like those in the south. When the autumn wind blows, they will wither and die. When the soldiers and horses enter the city, the wounded are among them, which makes the atmosphere full of murderous flavor.As soon as Zhu Gaoxu returned home, he took off his heavy armor. The arrow marks and damage on it were the marks of his blocking many open and hidden arrows. When he took off his armor, he was a little uncomfortable for a while, as if he had no protection and a little less sense of security... However, if there were "hidden arrows" in Peking, the armor would not be able to stop it, right?He changed into casual clothes, called Wang Gui and others, and went to Prince Yan's Mansion to report his safety to his mother.The double-eaved gatehouse of the Prince of Yan's Palace is very majestic and somewhat similar to the imperial city. The palace was originally rebuilt
Walking out of the small courtyard where Princess Xu lived and out of the wooden door, there was a corridor and a stone path between trees, which Zhu Gaoxu had walked many times.Even when he thought of Xu Miaojin, he would always think of this road. Most of their communication took place on this road."Five or six steps ahead, there is a cracked paving stone and no one has repaired it." Zhu Gaoxu said, breaking the silence.Xu Miaojin didn't say anything. After a while, she looked down and saw a crack on a stone on the ground. She was slightly surprised and turned to look at Zhu Gaoyang. "Prince Gaoyang has a good memory. Are you counting steps?"Zhu Gaoxu shook his head and pointed to a tree with only a few leaves left on the roadside. "That tree looks like a slingshot fork. That's what I thought when I first saw it. This cracked stone is right next to it."Xu Miaojin gave a forced smile, "In ancient times, there was a 'prince who held a bullet
