July 13......

************

The late summer winds bring all sorts of smells with them, and the smell is unspeakable, and the weather is so hot that the dead will soon emit a rancid smell. In addition to the stench of rotting corpses, there is also the unpleasant smell of people's bodies from bathing for a long time. The smell of drowning in stool......

Lin Zongwu sat on the stone platform to give a lecture, and sitting below were countless ragged and ragged believers with pitiful but fanatical eyes, men and women, all poor people.

People occasionally let out cheering sounds.

Lin Zongwu finished speaking. Turn your head down. He returned to the house behind him, his gaze fluctuating slightly, closing his eyes, and when he opened them again, he regained his calmness.

Occasionally, he would think of the events on the battlefield of Junzhou, where the people rushed towards the Jurchen army, fanatical and fearless, but before long, the army collapsed, and the Jurchens slaughtered from every direction of their vision, with mountains of bones and rivers of blood. These believers also began to turn around and run, like headless flies, and he could not command.

He doesn't care about the dead, in Lin Zongwu's life, the people he has killed with his own hands have already piled up. What he cares about in his heart is more about that failure, and the only thing that can make people feel better is that it is not his failure alone.

The whole world is defeated. Whether it was the army of the court, the rebel army, or the mountain bandits who charged at the Jurchens, all of them were defeated and died during this whole summer, and the Jurchens were killed by hundreds of thousands or even millions of corpses on the road, people died, homes were broken, old people and children were starved to death, and houses were burned to ashes. And most of those who have not been defeated have announced their surrender to the Jurchens, those who are of the wrong race.

The world is collapsing, those believers, they are the most obvious embodiment, in the past, in this crowd, most of the people still wear these decent clothes, there are many big families, rich families, now dare to wear such clothes There are fewer and fewer people, the Jurchen rampant has led to an increase in refugees, famine and epidemic are said to have appeared north of the Yellow River, even if he is now in the unoccupied area on the south bank of the Yellow River, people have become more and more panicked and embarrassed. In Junzhou, he lost more than 100,000 people, and when he returned, he soon gathered a large number of people.

Sect Master Lin, who has always been stable and strong, also didn't know if it was good or bad at this time. The heroes are all eager for troubled times, because troubled times can accumulate popularity, but looking at the appearance of those sect members, Lin Zongwu felt that it might not be a good thing.

The enemy is really ...... It's too powerful.

He thought in this silence for a moment, and then exhaled: It's okay.

This seat will finally find a way to save the world!

After a while, someone came this way. Lin Zongwu closed his eyes, and the man was outside the door, and reported the message in a low voice, Ying Tiancheng was broken.

Hearing this, he opened his eyes, and for a moment, the people outside the door heard the sect leader sigh as if he were a prophecy.

"The demons are dancing, the world is ...... I'm going to die......"

The world is peeling off, the ancient capital should be in the sky, the fire and blood are filling the city, and the massacre and plunder that once occurred in Bianliang City have reappeared in this ancient city that briefly became the capital. The leaves of the trees were burning, plaques were falling, people were shouting and screaming in terror and begging for mercy, women were running, and men were stabbed to death at the tips of guns. The child was thrown to the ground......

There is resistance, from north to south, along the way, large and small resistance is constantly appearing, and then constantly disappearing in collisions. The folk heroes organized themselves and set up a team to hunt and kill lone golden soldiers. People who are in danger of having their families ruined or dying at home hate to eat their flesh and sleep on their skin, but this is the most fierce hedge between the two countries.

After Yingtian, the two armies went south again, and the countless Jiangnan troops that poured up were defeated.

Yangzhou, this graceful ancient city, is also a panicked atmosphere. The court moved here with Zhou Yong, but the Jurchens did not stop. At this time, Zhou Yong had already lowered his posture and sent several letters begging for mercy to the Jurchen army-he had already seen it. This time, the Jurchens were determined to take him to the north, and he may have regretted becoming emperor - but to no avail.

In the past, the court of the Wu Dynasty gathered all the elites in the world, those adults who were high-spirited and pointed out the country, and those who were active outside the court, this time no one could turn the tide.

"I've prepared some people, and I've got a few teams......" looked at the palace from afar. Jun Wu, who was standing on the palace wall, said to his sister beside him, "If the Jurchens call. You can escort us away. ”

"Where are you going?"

Zhou Pei's eyes were empty, and he asked casually, Jun Wu was stunned: "How about going to the northwest otherwise?" ”

Zhou Pei closed his eyes, unwilling to see the way he looked when he was talking nonsense. Jun Wu smiled: "Just kidding." ”

"We went south, and then south, and further south. He has hundreds of thousands of people, when can he catch up, no matter what, save himself, in order to seek a glimmer of life. Master is on the northwest side, and he does the same. He paused, "I'm Wu Chao this time...... I'm afraid ......"

Jun Wu said this and did not continue. Zhou Pei closed her eyes and let the evening breeze blow through her hair, for the first time in a long time, this was the first time she hadn't opened her mouth to refute Jun Wu's title of "Master". Before this, she had already learned in detail about the fate of the nobles who were captured to the north in the shame of Jingping.

He was raped and abused, and when he went to the north, he was reduced to a slave and a prostitute, and he could not be liberated for the rest of his life. Next, if she encounters the fate of being captured, the only way out is probably suicide.

If I don't speak first in the spring, which insect dares to make a sound.

This time, get ready, the Jurchens who have been killed all the way will overwhelm the whole world head-on!

In the northwest, in this place where not too many people have cast their eyes, the whole situation is not much better than that of the Central Plains, which has been reduced to hell.

In May, taking advantage of the Jurchen Central and Eastern Route Army to attract the attention of the world with the trend of destroying the withering and decaying, Wanyan Lou led the main force of more than 10,000 Jin soldiers to cross the Yellow River, and soon, Yu Chaoyi broke the Fan Zhixu 160,000 troops, and then broke Tonghua, and re-broke tens of thousands of heavy troops in Tongguan.

In June, he trapped Jingzhao Mansion, surrounded the point to send reinforcements, and defeated and annihilated all the tens of thousands of troops who should support Jingzhao in Changlepo and other places, and then calmly captured Jingzhao Mansion. Capture Fu Liang alive, and then surrender Fengxiang and Longzhou. The pressure has really been pushed to the northwest.

In July, in Yanzhou and other places, preparations for war were actively underway. Not long ago, Chong Yan had rejected the persuasion of the Jurchen envoy to surrender, and the town of Chong Jia was in the northwest, and now, although the ancestral graves have been dug up, for the upright Chong Yan, the gold reduction is still not in his choice.

Since the recovery of Yanzhou and other places, there has not been much time for him to develop. Not long ago, he had repaired Xiaocanghe, hoping to join forces with the Huaxia Army, which was said not to defect to foreign countries, to fight the enemy, but the other party frankly refused.

The Huaxia Army is a rebel army, although the enemy is the same, but the position is still different, everyone has no experience in cooperation, who knows if you will suddenly turn against each other -- it is better not to join forces until you see the situation clearly.

The other party's refusal has its reasons, and it is impossible to think of it. On July 23, in the city of Yanzhou, he was waiting for news from the south.

Not long ago, he had sent 30,000 troops to support Feng Xiang.

The war that may have broken out in Fengxiang may have been the largest attack launched by the forces of the entire Wu Dynasty in the west in the face of the Jurchen Western Route Army, which was no more than 10,000. This is the result of discussions between all parties after hearing the news that Feng Xiang, who had fallen into the hands of the Jurchens, was going to rebel not long ago. Among them, the Wuwei army sent 150,000 troops, the Jinning army 100,000, the Western army 30,000, and several other rebel armies will also send their own troops, and the agreed time will launch an attack on Fengxiang at the same time.

In the afternoon, the news came.

The moment he got the news and read it, Chong Yan felt dizzy in his seat, he put down the message, knowing that it was redundant but still asked with difficulty: "Is the news true?" ”

The knight, who was still wounded, gave him the answer.

On July 21, Wanyan Lou Room sent reinforcements at the siege point under Fengxiang City, broke the 100,000 Jinning army, and turned back to capture Fengxiang City. On 22 July, more than 10,000 female Allah forces divided their forces into several routes, breaking 30,000 western troops in Wugong in the early morning, defeating 30,000 rebel troops in the near land at noon, and at night, Wanyan Lou personally led thousands of directly subordinate troops to break 150,000 Wuwei troops in Weinan.

-- Wugong and Weinan are separated by nearly 200 miles.

He walked out the door.

At this time, all kinds of preparations in Yanzhou City should still be going on, but here in the City Lord's Mansion, he couldn't see the work scene outside, and the autumn outside the courtyard was crisp, but he only felt a little difficult to breathe, and the darkness pressed over.

"What a day...... Are you going to be done......"

Xiaocang River, the sun slanted into the house, the light and dust flew in the air, and a group of officers after receiving the news were also silent.

“…… Your mother. Someone was sighing softly," ...... What's the use of having so many people? ”

In August, the main army of Wanyan Lou was pushed to Yanzhou...... (To be continued.) )

PS: It's the last three days of this month, does anyone still have a monthly pass? ^_^
