6 Yao and others were imprisoned in the prison city, and King Xin Cai was sad and angry for a long time and finally fell asleep. (Please search for the fastest novel website!)

At this moment, the group rushed forward in the dark tunnel where they could not see their fingers.

The men marched in a column, illuminated by a pine torch every five men. The swaying firelight reflected their fierce faces, vigorous movements, and the occasional reflection of shining armor and weapons. Their uniform footsteps were accompanied by the whistling of the air moving rapidly in the tunnel, and occasionally the clods of earth from the tunnel dome were shaken down, splashing large clouds of smoke and dust. But their forward progress did not slow down in the slightest, and no one even expressed fear or surprise.

Walking at the forefront of the whole army was Chen * Yuanda, the squire of the Yellow Gate of the Xiongnu Han State. With a torch in one hand and the hem of his robe in the other, he walked with great agility, not at all like an old man in his fifties. The tunnel is very narrow and long, with ups and downs, and it is not very easy to walk. But Chen * Yuanda is very familiar along the way, as if an old horse knows the way. Whenever he had to pass through the ventilation shaft, he would carefully guard the torches a moment in advance, unless he had made many field trips to the tunnel.

He said as he walked: "This tunnel was dug by Emperor Wu of Wei, and the ruins of the military camp of Jiangwu City from the west of the city where we came from are fifteen miles long and extend to the city. The project is enormous. Talking about the legend of Wucheng's fathers, in the past, when Emperor Wu of Wei was parading in Santai, he used this tunnel to secretly transfer the army, and tens of thousands of people created the momentum of millions of male soldiers. In the event of a battle, the defenders of the city could quietly move out of the city through the guò secret passage and surprise the enemy's flank. Unfortunately, decades later, Yecheng's city defense officials have changed repeatedly, and the secret of this tunnel has disappeared. ”

He turned around and looked at the two behind him, and there was a bit of pride in his words: "General Ji, Shi Junhou, since I followed the King of Han, I have been responsible for spreading secret spies in the north and south of the Great River, and collecting intelligence information from all over the world. Three years ago, I got the news of this secret passage by chance. In the past three years, I have spent a lot of money on Yecheng every year, on the one hand, to send cadres to maintain and repair the secret passages, and on the other hand, to gradually buy off the defenders of Yecheng...... For today! ”

Immediately behind Chen Yuanda was Ji Sang, who was wearing heavy armor. Kisan was tall and had to bend over to walk in the tunnel. He looked down at Chen Yuanda, his eyes shining brightly, like a fierce beast that chooses people and devours them. After a while, he nodded heavily: "Chen Shilang's plan is far-reaching, and Ji admires it very much!" ”

He was finally moved by Chen Yuanda's words and left Huang Ze, who had been dormant for months. It took a few days to gather thousands of fierce horse thieves and prepare for a decisive battle with the Great Jin. When he was about to move, he was really surprised and delighted to hear Chen * Yuanda say that there was such a secret passage available, and he couldn't wait to fight at this moment.

Shi Le was secretly frightened in his heart, the Xiongnu and Han States did have many congenital deficiencies, such as its Hu-Han division and the Xiongnu and Zahu also divided and ruled the political system, which was deeply criticized by Shile. But after all, this country established by the Huns inherited the appeal of Huhan Yeshan to the Hu people since then, and held high the banner of reviving the Han dynasty...... Although it only controls a few counties in the southern part of the state and the northern part of the state, its influence is far beyond this range.

Such a key point in the world as Yecheng, they were able to grasp such a crucial secret passage under the noses of countless Jin people...... The more Shi Le thought about it, the more frightened he became: how many unknown methods were hidden by the two old men with slightly frosty temples in front of him?

Chen Yuanda's eyes swept over Shi Le's face to take his slightly twitching expression into his eyes: "What, Shi Junhou still has doubts?" ”

Shi Le smiled reluctantly and said modestly, "I'm just a horse thief, and my knowledge is limited. The thought of going to war with Dajin again, although there is no doubt, after all, I am a little nervous. ”

Chen Yuanda smiled, walked a few steps, and said: "Actually, there is no need to doubt, and there is no need to be nervous. The Great Jin Dynasty is bound to die, and now it is just the dying struggle of the remnants of the faint monarch. ”

"Oh? Chen Gong, how can you see it? Schler asked.

Chen * Yuanda walked quickly under his feet, with a thoughtful expression on his face, and suddenly asked after a while, "Does Marquis Shi Jun know about Confucius?" ”

Although Shi Le came from a humble background and did not know anything, he was extremely studious, and in the interval between his troubles, he also recruited some literati to read the classics for himself, so he immediately nodded and said: "That is the scholar Confucius in the Spring and Autumn Period, the founder of Confucianism. ”

"Exactly." Chen * Yuanda said: "It is recorded in the Analects that the way of the master is only loyalty and forgiveness. Later generations preached Confucian classics, even if they said a thousand words, they could not bypass a single word of loyalty. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed the hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism, and what he respected was actually nothing more than a loyal character. The king shepherds his ministers with benevolence, and the courtiers swear loyalty to the monarch, which is the principle of the monarch and the courtiers that the Confucian people yearn for. It is precisely because of the obedience to Confucianism and the way of loyalty and respect that the two Han Dynasty have been able to inherit for 400 years. Until the end of Huan and Ling, there were still party members who sacrificed their lives to take righteousness and help the world. This is the result of the Confucianism's heroic righteousness. ”

"The Great Jin Dynasty is different from the previous generation, with filial piety to establish the country, Shang Xuan light Confucianism, why is this? It is only because Emperor Xuan of the Great Jin Dynasty Sima Yi was entrusted with the important task of Emperor Wen of Cao Wei and Emperor Ming for two generations, and he was a very popular minister, but since Emperor Xuan, the father and son all bullied orphans and widows and stole artifacts. The Great Jin Dynasty is so established, dare to preach the principle of monarchs and ministers? Therefore, he could only retreat to the second, trumpeting filial piety, and suppressing Confucianism with lofty and superficial mysteries. ”

"I see." Shi Le thought thoughtfully: "But this and the Great Jin Dynasty will perish...... What's the connection? ”

Chen Yuanda sighed: "If Confucianism is not good, the world will be corrupted and people's hearts will be lost." I look at the Great Jin Dynasty, the kings of the clan are ambitious and covet the throne; The court and the public flies are only good at oppressing the people; Soldiers only want their lives, and they have no heart to serve the country; The gate valve family moved with the times, only seeking the interests of one family and one surname...... Such a dynasty has never existed since ancient times, and it is unreasonable for its country to be extended for a long time. Therefore, since the Han King raised his army, everywhere he went was like a devastating and decaying! ”

Shi Le shook his head: "Not necessarily...... For example, the history of Jinyang Liu Thorn is worthy of being the pillar stone of the Great Jin Dynasty. Many of his subordinates also have loyal ministers and good generals. ”

The defeat in the Battle of Jinyang was a great shame for the Xiongnu Han State. Shi Le said this without any scruples, Chen * Yuanda only felt a feeling of tightness in his chest, and he looked at Shi Le carefully to determine that he was just saying it, not intentionally ridiculing. After a pause, Chen * Yuanda said slightly: "What Shi Junhou said is good, although the Great Jin Dynasty has won the country is not right, but after all, it has been in the world for decades, and the people are billions of trillions; Among its civil and military generals, there are finally heroes who are outstanding. However, how many people can there be like Liu Kun? Shi Junhou has also crisscrossed the north and south of the river, footprints all over Hebei, Yan, Henan, Si and other large states, with what Shi Junhou has seen and heard, have you ever seen the second Liu Kun? ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but laugh: "What a new King Cai has done, even ten Liu Kun can't make up for it." And the traitors and villains and incompetent people among the monarchs and ministers of the Great Jin Dynasty...... How many millions? These millions of people are like millions of insects and ants, under their bite, although the Great Jin seems to be a behemoth, in fact, it has long been decayed, just like the wooden door in front of ......"

At this point, everyone realized that the tunnel had come to an end, and a dark wooden door was tightly closed, cutting off the road ahead.

Ji Sang snorted lightly: "Stop! Behind him, hundreds of warriors stopped at the same time, and the sound of their soles stomping on the ground merged into a muffled sound, echoing through the winding tunnel.

Schle awoke from his immediate contemplation. After several years of painstaking management, he and Ji Sang have only entangled the horse thieves from all directions, and now almost all of them are standing in this tunnel, if there is any case, the consequences are unimaginable. Shi Le looked at the wooden door vigilantly, and then at Chen Yuanda, and his right hand was already hidden on the hilt of the knife.

Chen * Yuanda was stunned by this, and continued the topic of Fang Cai: "...... Just like the wooden door in front of you, it seems to be solid, but in fact, it only needs to be kicked lightly to open it! ”

He raised his foot and kicked on the wooden door, and the withered latch snapped, and the wooden door opened as the shaft creaked.

Outside the wooden door, there were many light things such as dead grass and reed poles used for cover, and several soldiers had already rushed forward to remove them, and the light immediately penetrated into the tunnel.

Ji Sang took the lead and strode out, raised his eyes and looked around, only to see that under the bloody sun, three towering high platforms were close in front of him. At the top of the central platform is a gorgeous bronze sparrow, on which the glow of the sun is sprinkled, reflecting the bronze finch with its wings as if it is soaring between the clouds.

Jisang's pupils narrowed slightly: "This is ......"

"This is the Bronze Bird Terrace!" Chen * Yuanda stood side by side with him and instructed him one by one: "On the left is the Golden Tiger Terrace, and on the right is the Ice Well Terrace. ”

"From a closer look, it's even more magnificent!" Jisang exclaimed.

"Yecheng is important to the world, and the gains and losses of one place are enough to leverage the general trend of the world. And it is located in Hebei, relying on the solidity of Santai. Chen * Yuanda stroked his beard and smiled: "Now, our army has reached the bottom of Santai through the secret passage, and the Jin people are close at hand, and they are defenseless; In addition to the three stations, Yecheng is lax in armament and is readily available. In Yecheng, there are 15 secret spies that I have sent in batches over the past few years, and 21 officers above the main level of the Jin army that I have recruited. These people have already acted in advance, and they are scattered in various critical places within Sima Gate, and they are ready to respond at any time. When the general marches into the army, if he encounters a person with a white silk wrapped in his arm, he can use it as credible. ”

Ji Sang laughed loudly, and his voice was like a night owl: "Okay, thank you Chen Shilang for planning so thoroughly, and then it's up to us!" ”

"That's right!" Chen * Yuanda bowed his hand to Ji Sang: "Chen has no power to restrain the chicken, and he does not dare to say anything about the battle array." Within six gates, there will be two Lao to show their might. ”
