Chapter 135: Taiyuan Mansion City

Walking for more than ten miles, the sky was overcast, the wind was sudden, and the snow fell in the sky, Chang Yu Zhima looked up at the gray sky, stretched out his palm, fell into a few snowflakes, suddenly felt strange, turned his head to look, but saw Zhou Yuji staring at him, the two looked at each other for a moment, without saying a word.

"The second snow in Shanxi after winter" Zhou Yuji looked up at the sky and said lightly.

"I hope this snow will fall heavily," Chang Yu exhaled.

"The heavy snow can only temporarily stop the thief army from going north, but it can also buy us more time to prepare," Zhou Yuji also sighed secretly.

Chang Yu smiled slightly: "Drought for many years, no rain for a long time, the snow can always alleviate the drought, as for the thief army since it has decided to go north, if you want to block it with the sky, it is undoubtedly a dream, and in the end it needs to be artificial!" ”

Zhou Yuji nodded silently.

It is almost noon, the snow is not big or small, it is already drifting, the ground has seen white, and at this time it is only ten miles away from Taiyuan City, and the majestic city can be seen faintly, looming in the sky full of drizzle and snow, which has more meaning.

A few fast horses galloped over, but when they got closer, they were five or six brocade guards, who had been waiting here on the order of Wu Mengming, and finally waited for Chang Yu at this time, leading the way, and returning to the city to report.

The closer he got, the clearer the city of Taiyuan City became, the faster Chang Yu's heart beated, and he traveled through the past month from the palace to the royal favor to deal with secret affairs, and now he went out of the capital to here, and finally went to the front line!

Taiyuan is also known as Dragon City, it is said that it is because there are more emperors, there are two cities, one Taiyuan county and one Taiyuan Fucheng, and the two places are separated by thirty or forty miles.

Taiyuan Mansion City from the Tang and Song dynasties after several migrations, to the Ming Dynasty after the expansion of the pattern today, it is rumored that Zhu Yuanzhang's family is the third Jin King Zhu Li on the front of the domain to Yongping Hou Xie Cheng expansion, the circumference of the city is 12 kilometers, 12 meters high, there are eight gates, two roads in each of the four directions, the city is built four corner towers, eight gatehouses, 92 enemy towers, it is the big city of Beijing in the north of the Yangtze River, the head of the important town of the nine sides.

"Taiyuan Fucheng has two gates in the east and west, north and south, a total of eight gates, the east is Yiqing Gate, Yinghui Gate is also known as the big east gate and the small east gate, the south is Yingze, Chengen, also known as the big south gate, the new south gate, the west is Fucheng (dry west gate) Zhenwu Gate (water west gate) north is Zhenyuan (big north gate) arch gate (small north gate) in front of that is the big north gate" Zhou Yuji is familiar with Taiyuan, at this time Gan as a tour guide stretched out a finger, snowflakes in the sky, see a towering city tower in the distance, up to more than 20 meters.

Chang Yu looked at the three-story tower on the city, his face was a little excited, in later generations he had taken photos of Yingze Gate at the Great South Gate of Taiyuan Mansion in the old photos of the Republic of China, tall and majestic. I have also seen photos of the devastated Taiyuan Drum Tower that was bombarded by artillery fire in 49 years, but they are not as shocking as the real thing at this time.

is so tall and majestic, if 100,000 elite soldiers defend each other to the death, how can the thief army be broken!

As far as the eye can see, although the snow is flying, a large number of soldiers can still be seen patrolling back and forth in the city, after all, it is the front line, and the thief army is in Pingyang Mansion hundreds of miles away.

Perhaps because of the approaching war, the two gates in the north of Taiyuan City only opened the Yingze Gate, and there were few pedestrians, but I don't know whether the other gates were open.

When the team arrived at the Yingze Gate, when Zheng Xingguo went to contact the guards, he saw a team of men and horses galloping from the city gate, looking at the Jinyi guard, Wu Mengming came.

"I have seen the factory superintendent" Wu Mengming to Chang Yu in front of the horse, turn over and dismount to kneel, although theoretically the two are equal, but there is an old saying that Jinyiwei and Dongchang always have to kneel when they meet!

As for who kneels and who is over there to see who is popular, Mao Xiang, Ji Gang, and Wantong will kneel to them, but when it comes to Wang Zhen, Liu Jin, and Wei Zhongxian, Jinyiwei not only kneels and hugs his thighs, but also has to call Dad!

Obviously, Chang Yu is popular now.

Although Wu Mengming and Chang Yu had a good personal relationship, Chang Yu was just an unemployed confidant eunuch at that time, but now it is very different, plus it is an official, and the etiquette needs to be done sufficiently, although he also knows that Chang Yu will not let him kneel, but he has to do it

Sure enough, just as he was about to kneel, Chang Yu laughed: "Old Wu, you save it, who are you disgusting about this relationship?"

Wu Mengming smiled and got up, and he was also happy in his heart, this kid really hasn't changed, he is still so good at being a man, and then after Zhou Yuji and others saw the benefits, he turned over and entered the city side by side with Chang Yu.

"How's it going?" Chang Yu asked in a low voice.

"As soon as I arrived in Taiyuan at noon yesterday, I immediately sent someone to investigate, and the news just arrived not long ago, and there is material!"

"That's fine," Chang Yu nodded slightly.

"When are you going to do it, the thief army has already sent troops, and I'm afraid that the duck will fly if it's too late!" Wu Mengming's expression was a little anxious.

"There's something to deal with in front of ...... eyes," he said and pondered, "Try to be tonight."

"Great" Wu Mengming was overjoyed, waved his fist, and was about to say something, but was stopped by Chang Yu with a look: "I'll talk about it later" Wu Mengming immediately shut up.

Suddenly, Chang Yu reined in his war horse and looked sideways at Zhou Yuji: "General Zhou, is this place far away from Yongning Prefecture (Luliang)?" ”

"About three hundred miles" Zhou Yuji replied casually after pondering, but he didn't know why Chang Yu asked this.

Three hundred miles, Chang Yu muttered, and then beckoned, and Qin Xing behind him immediately rode forward: "Lord Factory Supervisor"

"Come here," Chang Yu said, whispering in Qin Xing's ear.

"Do you remember the address?" Banxiang Changyu asked.

"Remember the factory supervisor, Laibao Village, which is thirty miles away from Shizhou in Fangshan County," Qin Xing replied in a low voice.

"Remember, don't be rude, don't threaten and intimidate, treat him with great courtesy" Chang Yu said and motioned to Fang San to take a hundred taels of silver from the car and handed it to Qin Xing, "If he is willing to bring his family with him, it is best to go, if not, a hundred taels of silver will be left for him to settle for the aftermath of the family, and you can't deduct it from it."

"The little one doesn't dare," Qin Xing hurriedly said.

"Go quickly, go back quickly" said and handed ten taels of silver to Qin Xing: "Don't treat the brothers badly on the road, everyone will be rewarded when you come back"

Thank you as Lord Governor of the factory, Qin Xing took the silver as he spoke, clasped his fists and saluted, and then galloped west with a few people on horseback.

"My lord, what is this doing......" Looking at Qin Xing's back, Wu Mengming asked curiously.

"Please enter the world" Chang Yu smiled slightly, without words, and hit the horse into the city.

When the army entered the city, the people in the city stopped and watched, and the people with organic spirits frowned deeply when they saw this battle, knowing that the war was not far away.

The snow is still not big or small, but the wind is tight, Chang Yu has already fallen a layer of white hair, and his face is also red from the cold, but he also knows that this is not the time to get into the car to warm up.

"Where did you rest last night?" Chang Yu asked Wu Mengming beside him.

"Governor Yamen" Wu Mengming pouted: "Is it difficult to go to the post station or the barracks, this is not a general military mansion"

Also, Chang Yu smiled faintly: "It seems that our brothers and the governor are on the bar."

"Shall you go now?" Wu Mengming asked.

Chang Yu didn't answer in a hurry, looked up at the sky, then looked at the tall city wall, and was silent for a moment and turned his head to look at Zhou Yuji: "General Zhou Bing, you first lead the team to the barracks to settle down, and then gather on the upper floor of Yingze Gate, a military general with a guerrilla rank or above in the city."

Zhou Yuji didn't ask much when he heard this, just nodded, hugged his fists at Chang Yu and left.

"Zheng Xingguo, you can take someone to the governor's yamen, and the governor and the prefect will also gather at the south gate after an hour, and inform our family to discuss city defense matters with them."

Zheng Xingguo took the order and left.

Immediately, only Wu Mengming and Chang Yu and nearly 100 followers were left on the streets.

"Father-in-law Chang, don't you want to blow the wind and watch the snow here, there is still an hour, why don't we find a restaurant to eat and drink some hot" Wu Mengming proposed.

Chang Yu smiled slightly: "It really means to blow the wind and see the snow, but you have to go up to see it" said and pointed to the city wall: "Climb high and look far away to be relaxed."

"Ahem, you're so interested" Wu Mengming's face was bitter, it was a cold day, but he couldn't say no.

"Jiang Quan, go find a restaurant, order some hot food and send it to the Nancheng Tower," Chang Yu said and asked Fang San to take some broken silver and hand it to Jiang Quan, and then led everyone towards the city gate.
