Lei Tongtong said: "***, didn't you say that the gods possessed the body and were invulnerable?" These turtle grandsons were also raised by their mother, and they would die if they were stabbed. It's a lie. ”

Several of them followed the Chinese army into Pingdanyi and captured the county office, but they were all tired and panting, and there was a lot of blood stuck to their bodies, but fortunately, several people were still safe, only Hong Liang and You Hai were injured, but they were not worried about their lives. But You Hai was seriously injured, he was stabbed in his left leg, and a cut was made more than half an inch deep and more than three inches long. I was sweating profusely in pain. Zhang Xin ripped a piece from his robe and was about to bandage him.

"This will not work, the wound will become infected and suppurated." Zhang Xin looked up and saw a big man standing in front of him, also covered in blood, holding a long-handled thick-backed machete in one hand, and blood was dripping down the big knife.

Lei Tonggang walked over and said, "You are stepping on the Qi Dazhu of the White Army, right?" ”

Qi Dazhu laughed twice, took out a small bottle from his arms, handed it to Lei Tonggang, and said: "This is my own knife wound medicine, it is very good to treat external injuries, then use it, but be sure to wash the wound with water and then apply medicine to bandage." "He was originally born as an Orion, and preparing trauma medicine is also a must-have skill for hunters.

Lei Tonggang took the medicine bottle, patted Qi Dazhu's shoulder, and said: "Thank you, brother, we have received this love, I am Lei Tonggang of the Chinese army, they are all my brothers, if you need help in the future, just come to us." ”

Qi Dazhu also patted him on the shoulder and said, "I wrote it down, brother." ”

When the news of the Song army's complete victory reached Yang Yan, he breathed a sigh of relief, Pingdanyi had been captured, and the first battle of the attack on Manichaeism was a victory. But the war with Manichaeism has only just begun. He turned his head and said: "Cao Xun, you go and find out how the situation is on both sides of Wuhua and Longping, Gao Zhen, you go back immediately, and inform Liu Fuwu and Wu Xi to immediately send troops to attack Xunzhou."

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

On the tenth day of the seventh month, Shenshi, Guizhou.

Zhong Ziang's enthronement ceremony began in the morning and continued to the afternoon Shen, when the sun set in the west. However, all the ceremonies basically ended with the scriptures, and now the last one is carried out: Zhong Ziang will accept the worship of everyone, and then officially divide the vassals, and this ceremony, which took more than four hours, will come to a successful end.

"Qiyun Liji, Shengong, Shengde, Wensu, Wurui, Qinren, Mingxiao, the Most Holy and Sage King, to." As the official shouted loudly, Zhong Zi raised his head and wore a golden crown of double dragons playing with pearls, wearing a five-clawed golden dragon yellow robe, stepped on the road paved with a brocade carpet from outside the hall, slowly walked into the main hall, and sat on a large chair with nine golden dragons holding the sun in the middle.

The members of the Manichaean Sect, as well as other non-religious personnel, bowed three times and bowed to Zhong Zi in accordance with the etiquette rehearsed in advance, and shouted in unison: "Ministers and others see my king, may my king live long live long live, revitalize the holy religion, live in Tianqi, thousands of years, and unify the world." ”

Then the guards on duty in the main hall and the attendants also knelt on the ground together, bowed three times and bowed nine times, and also shouted: "Long live my king, long live, revitalize the Holy Religion, live in Tianqi, thousands of years, and unify the world." ”

The soldiers guarding outside the hall also knelt on the ground and shouted: "Long live my king, long live, revitalize the Holy Religion, live long in the sky, and unify the world for thousands of years." ”

For a moment, the voice shook the heavens and the earth, and even the hall seemed to tremble, Zhong Ziang laughed, stood up and said, "Everyone, be flat." I hope that it will last forever and ...... forever"

Before the word "day" could be spoken, I saw a person rushing in from outside the hall, stumbling onto the main hall, and said in a dumb voice: "Report to the sect master, the big thing is not good, the Song army launched an attack on us last night, and now the Pingdan Post is lost...... Before he finished speaking, he fell to the ground and fainted. The Manichaeans knew him at first sight, he was a master of incense in the sect, and he was ordered to guard the Pingdan Station.

At this time, there was a sudden chaos in the hall, some people hurried to rescue the incense master, and some people exchanged heads and talked about it. Even Zhong Ziang was a little overwhelmed for a while.

At this time, Jiang Yiju walked out and said loudly: "Everyone, please be quiet. ”

And when they heard him speak, they fell silent and heard what he had to say. Jiang Yiju coughed dryly and said, "Everyone, today is the day of the king's accession to the throne, and the ceremony is not over yet, so we must not affect the ceremony of our Holy Sect because of this trivial matter." Pointing to the incense master who had passed out, he turned his head to the two guards on duty and said, "You carry him out, don't let him affect the continuation of the ceremony." In addition, tell the guards at the door not to let any unrelated people in, so as not to spoil the king's grand event. ”

For a period of time, the enthronement ceremony planned by Jiang Yiju was highly praised by Zhong Ziang, and he also attached great importance to him. Jiang Yiju couldn't help but feel a little fluttery, and when he saw that the ceremony that was about to end perfectly was suddenly interrupted, he was naturally unhappy, so he immediately jumped out and shouted to continue the ceremony.

The two guards walked over stupidly, and were about to carry the incense master, when Zhao Cao, who was rescuing the incense master, finally couldn't help it, he stood up and raised his hand, gave each of these two people a punch, and said sharply: "When is this coming, and this tattered ceremony will continue." Hurry up and discuss how to deal with Song Jun. ”

When Jiang Yiju saw it, he was naturally annoyed in his heart, and pointed at Zhao Cao and said, "King Ming, what are you talking about." Today is a great day for the king to ascend the throne, and anything else can be put aside, what is it to lose one city, even if you lose ten cities, you can't stop this enthronement ceremony, whoever dares to spoil the king's good deeds is disloyal to the king, and it is a great rebellion. ”

He turned to Zhong Ziang again and said, "King, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, what is the loss of a city and a place?" Please give the order of the king, continue to complete the enthronement ceremony, and then send troops to attack the Song army. With the wisdom and martial arts of the king, it is naturally easy to defeat the Song army, and everywhere you go, you will be invincible and invincible. ”

Zhao Cao was so angry that he beat his chest, pointed at Jiang Yiju and scolded: "You...... You...... You're a bastard. ”

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jiang Yiju and said, "King Ming, on this big hall, how can you be allowed to go wild, you must listen to the king."

Zhao Cao suddenly starled, only to realize that he had lost his temper just now, and he was silent. At this time, the hall was silent, and everyone looked at Zhong Ziang, waiting for his decision. Zhong Ziang couldn't help but groan, and he was weighing the gains and losses repeatedly in his heart.

Just when Zhong Ziang was still thinking, suddenly another person stumbled in from outside the hall and shouted: "Sect Master, the big thing is not good, Wuhua has been lost." ”

Zhong Ziang was taken aback, he couldn't imagine that even Wuhua was lost, and he couldn't help asking: "How did Wuhua lose." ”

The man said: "We are the army stationed in Wuhua, and we heard that the Song army attacked Pingdanyi, so we immediately sent troops to rescue us, but not long after the army left Wuhua, the Song army came to attack Wuhua." At this time, there were not many defenders in the city, and he could not stop the attack of the Song army, so in less than an hour, Wuhua was lost. ”

When Jiang Yiju heard this, he was also struck in his heart, and was thinking about whether to persuade Zhong Ziang to continue the ceremony, when another person ran into the hall and said: "Report to the sect leader, the Longping defenders learned that the Song army was attacking Pingdanyi, and immediately sent troops to rescue them, but they fell into an ambush of the Song army less than fifty miles out of the city, and suffered heavy losses in men and horses, and almost all the troops were wiped out. ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, Jiang Yiju couldn't help but secretly rejoice, just now fortunately did not persuade Zhong Ziang to continue the ceremony, at this time someone ran into the main hall and said: "Report to the sect leader, the men and horses sent from Wuhua to rescue Pingdanyi were ambushed by the Song army on the way, so that the whole army was annihilated. ”

Before he finished speaking, someone rushed into the main hall and said, "Report to the sect leader, Long Ping has lost." ”

Zhong Ziang sat slumped on the dragon chair, completely out of temper. Even Jiang Yiju was silent, not daring to say anything more about continuing the ceremony. Who would have thought that the Song army would really launch a full-scale attack at this time, and succeed again and again. All the people in the hall had nothing to say, and there were only three words left in everyone's mind: "What should I do?" ”

At this time, outside the main hall, the sun finally set completely, and the last bit of afterglow was also blocked by the eaves of the temple, and the main hall was suddenly dark. The long night has finally arrived.

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

The Song army launched an all-out attack on Manichaeism on the tenth day of the seventh month, and in one night it captured three cities and ambushed two places, all of which were completely victorious. However, for Manichaeism, the nightmare did not end, and in the following days, the Song army divided its troops into two routes, all the way to Wuhua, and successively captured Xiangzhou, Zhushou, Laibin, Qianjiang and other places.
