8th Outer Master 7

And after returning to Longxing Mansion, everything will return to its original state, he will restore the princess's position, and Yang Yan will also return to his position, although the two now have a marriage contract, but the day of marriage is still far away. (? 8 γ€ˆ[[δΈ€(〔网 ?) >οΌŽοΌ‰οΌ˜οΌ½οΌ‘>οΌΊ?). C]OM What's more, even after the two get married, Yang Yan has other wives and concubines, and it is difficult to enjoy such a life of solitude.

Thinking about it, Zhao Danru's face burned for a while, and he thought of it. But when he touched the golden cylinder again, he remembered Zhao Yan's entrustment, and his heart couldn't help but sink, could it be that Yang Yan would really betray the Great Song Dynasty? May this secret never be useful.

In the early morning of the second day, the two got up and walked out of the hut, only to see Dugu standing in front of the sword mound behind the hut. The two walked behind him, and Yang Yan said, "Senior Dugu." ”

Dugu didn't look back, just stroked the stone tablet with his hand and said, "You have been lying here for ten years, and now it's finally time to see the light of day again." ”

Yang Yan and Zhao Yueru couldn't help but tremble in their hearts, knowing that after Dugu Idiot challenged Pu Feng, he was finally going to break the mound and take the sword.

At this time, Dugu Idiot turned around and said to the two, "Did you rest well yesterday?" ”

Yang Yan said: "Thank you seniors for helping us beat those four people yesterday, but we all still have heavy responsibilities on our shoulders, so I said goodbye to my seniors." We will never forget the kindness of our predecessors, and if our predecessors can use our place in the future, please ask our seniors to give us orders. Then he told Dugu the true identities of the two.

Dugu was so stupid that there was nothing strange about it, and said: "When we meet here, it is fate, and you don't have to worry about it." There is a banquet in the world, you all have a heavy responsibility to rebody, I won't keep you more, he has a fate, and we will meet again. ”

The two of them saluted Dugu again, and then turned to leave.

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

On the twelfth day of the Jin army's invasion of Lin'an, Wanyan Changzhi and Wanyan Chen Monk divided their troops into two routes and marched separately.

Monk Wanyan Chen led Shi Mo Yanshan, Pu Atong, Shuhu Thorn Han, and Hu Le Ming, led an army of 20,000, and joined up with Wan Yan Ting's 10,000 horses in Changzhou to attack Liyang. And Wanyan Changzhi led an army of 30,000 and other generals to attack Longxing Mansion. Only Zhang Hu and Mo Ran Shi Qita were left to guard Lin'an.

At this time, Zhao Qianru, Cao Xun, Gao Zhen, Liu Fuwu, Ling Xiang and others in Longxing Mansion knew that Lin'an was lost, Zhao Yan and Yu Yunwen were martyred, and they also knew that the Song army was defeated in the first battle of Chongde, and the Song army stationed in Chongde was almost wiped out, but there was still no whereabouts of Yang Yan and Zhao Yueru. Although everyone was silent, they couldn't help but think that Yang Yan was indeed more than lucky. And at this moment, the news that Wanyan Changzhi led the army to attack Longxing Mansion also came.

Wanyan Changzhi led the army all the way south, because most of the officials of the state capital south of Lin'an fled with the scriptures, so Wanyan Changzhi's march was very smooth, 6 followed the capture of Yanzhou, Quzhou, Xinzhou and other places, ignoring Raozhou and Fuzhou, and the army and horses were killed until the Wuyang water, which was only thirty miles away from Longxing Mansion.

After Cao Xun and Gao Zhen heard the news, they immediately rushed to Longxing Mansion from Raozhou and Fuzhou to support, and the two armies faced each other across the river. Knowing that Yan Changzhi only stayed with 10,000 horses, guarding the big camp by the Wuyang water, the camp planted a false flag, thinking that it was a suspicious army, and the other troops were divided into two ways to capture Yugan and Jinxian.

In fact, at this time, the Song army guarded the Longxing Mansion area of more than 50,000 people, far above the Jin army, but there were too many places to defend, which caused the dispersion of forces, and although the number of the Jin army was small, because it was an active attack, the action was flexible, and it could form a local advantage.

Although Yugan and Jinxian are only two small counties, they are located between Longxing Province and Raozhou and Fuzhou respectively, and their geographical location is very important. Because from Raozhou to Longxingfu, you can also cross the waterway from Poyang Lake, and it is better to get there, and Jinxian's loss is equivalent to cutting off the road from Longxingfu to Fuzhou, and the Jin army immediately marched from Jinxian to capture Fuzhou. Once Fuzhou was lost, the Jin army could go all the way south and attack Fujian, so Gao Zhen immediately led his men and horses to recapture Jinxian.

As a result, Wanyan Changzhi had long expected that the Song army would come to the rescue of Jinxian, and the capture of Fuzhou was just a bluff, but he set up an ambush by the Wuyang River, and took advantage of the Song army to cross the river and attack, and as a result, he defeated Gao Zhen's rescuers and killed more than 2,000 people. Gao Zhen was defeated and returned to Longxing Mansion. And Wanyan Changzhi took the opportunity to lead the Jin army, crossed the Wuyang River, and turned to Longxing Mansion to kill. All of a sudden, the Jin army's offensive was fierce, and it had the momentum of taking Longxing Mansion in one fell swoop.

At this time, Yang Yan was not there, and after Gao Zhen was defeated, the people in Longxing Mansion were even more panicked, and Zhao Qianru was also surprised, and immediately gathered all the generals at the command level to discuss what to do next. But the generals looked at each other, but no one could think of a good way. There was a stalemate for a long time, and no one said anything, Zhao Qianru saw this, so she had to announce the end of today's discussion, let everyone go back to rest, and discuss again tomorrow.

Watching the generals leave one after another, Zhao Qianru sighed in her heart, leaned back on the seat, and felt indescribable fatigue. If Yang Yan is still there, even if Yang Yan is not personally to Longxing Mansion, but to the rear of the town, but as long as the generals and soldiers know that Yang Yan is behind them, they will also feel that they have the bottom in their hearts, and this will not be the case, and now Yang Yan still has no news and his whereabouts are unknown, which is equivalent to cutting off the backbone of the whole army.

But in the face of such a scenario, Zhao Qianru was also powerless. I could only say silently in my heart: "Yanlang, where you are now, do you know how dangerous the current situation is, if you don't come back, you can ......"

At this time, Zhao Chen walked into the council hall and said, "Sister, they are all gone, why are you still here." ”

Zhao Qianru sighed softly, and was about to speak, when Yue Ying walked in and reported: "Princess, Cao Dutong and Gao Dutong want to see the princess." ”

Zhao Qianru said: "Please let them in." ”

After Cao Xun and Gao Zhen came in, Zhao Qianru said, "What else do you have to do?" ”

Cao Xun said: "Sister-in-law, I discussed with Gao Zhen just now, and now Longxing Mansion is not safe, so we will guard it here, you better leave first and go to Jingjiang Mansion to take refuge." ”

Zhao Qianru smiled slightly: "After I leave, what will you two do here?" ”

Gao Zhen smiled bitterly: "In this situation, we see that Longxing Mansion is difficult to hold, it is too dangerous to stay here, sister-in-law, you better go first, we will block the Jin soldiers here first, and try to drag on for some more time." ”

Zhao Qianru shook her head and said lightly: "Longxing Mansion is now the last barrier of the Great Song Dynasty, holding Longxing Mansion, there is still hope for revival and counteroffensive, once Longxing Mansion is lost, not only Tanzhou will be the brunt, but also even the land of Jiangnan, Liangguang and Fujian is difficult to preserve, and the Great Song Dynasty is in danger of losing the country." Therefore, if I leave, the morale of the army will be more chaotic, so I will never leave here. She looked at the two of them again and said word by word: "And I believe that he will definitely come back, so I will definitely wait for him here and will not leave." ”

Cao Xun and Gao Zhen glanced at each other and were speechless for a while.

At this time, Zhao Chen, who was standing behind Zhao Qianru with Yue Ying, suddenly said: "We must not leave, we must guard Longxing Mansion." He walked up to Cao Xun and Gao Zhen and said, "Brother Cao, Brother Gao, you and my brother-in-law are sworn brothers, so do you think he will come back?" ”

Cao Xun said: "Of course it will, the eldest brother will definitely come back." ”

Gao Zhen also said: "I also believe that the eldest brother is back." ”

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "Brother-in-law handed over the heavy responsibility of guarding Longxing Mansion to you, then you have to do your best to keep Longxing Mansion, if you give up so easily, think about it, if your brother-in-law comes back, how do you face your brother-in-law." ”

Cao Xun said distressedly: "Xiao Chen, it's not that we don't want to hold Longxing Mansion, it's just that the momentum of the Jin Army is too fierce now, and that Wanyan Changzhi is too powerful, except for the eldest brother, no one can beat him." We're really ......."

Zhao Chen said: "Two big brothers, don't be so unconfident in yourself, since your brother-in-law has entrusted you with the important task of guarding Longxing Mansion, he must believe that your ability will definitely be able to hold Longxing Mansion." And now the rise and fall of the Great Song Dynasty is on your shoulders, so don't let down your brother-in-law's expectations of you. My sister won't go, and I won't go, and we'll all do our part to keep Longxing Mansion. ”

Zhao Qianru also said: "I don't know much about military affairs, but judging from the current situation, although we have encountered some setbacks, we still have more men and horses than the Jin army, and there are cities to defend, why can't we hold Longxing Mansion." In the past, when you pacified the south, you also took charge of the situation and behaved very well, why did you not have confidence in yourself this time. ”

Cao Xun and Gao Zhen glanced at each other again, finally nodded, and said, "Don't worry, we will try our best to hold Longxing Mansion and wait for the eldest brother to come back." ”

Zhao Qianru nodded and said: "Things at the military level, you can just let it go, don't worry about it, I will bear all the consequences." ”

After the two said goodbye and left, Zhao Qianru said to Zhao Chen and Yue Ying: "It's not too early, you should also go and rest."

Zhao Chen, Yue Ying, said goodbye and came outside. Yue Ying said: "Xinwang Chitose, do you really believe that Yang Yuma will come back?" ”

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "Miss Yue, don't worry, it will definitely be, he will definitely come back and lead us to defeat the Jin army." ”

Yue Ying sighed lightly and said, "I also look forward to Yang Yuma coming back soon, otherwise, ...... I don't care we ......"

Zhao Chen grabbed Yue Ying's hand, looked at her, and said, "Miss Yue, we must not be so depressed, if you also believe that my brother-in-law will definitely come back, then please don't be so discouraged, we must work together to defend Longxing Mansion."

Yue Ying's face was slightly dizzy, she withdrew her hand, and said, "I know, King Xin, don't worry, I will definitely work hard." ”

Zhao Chen also felt that he was a little reckless just now, and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, but...... That, Miss Yue, don't call me King Xin in the future, in fact, we are all about the same age, you are the same as my sister and brother-in-law, and you also call me Xiao Chen. ”

Yue Ying lowered her head and said in a low voice, "That's ...... Is that good? ”

Zhao Chen smiled: "What's wrong with this, Brother Cao and Brother Gao both call me that, and Miss Gu and Tie Chenglin also call me that." ”
