The changing scene of Ziwei Xing almost illuminated the entire land of China. When he rushed to the capital for eight hundred miles, Han Chengjue was listening to some alchemists discussing the astrology. This one said that meteors swept Ziwei Xing. This is someone who wants to kill the emperor. What the emperor wants to do Only when bad luck can be turned into good fortune, who said that Ziwei Xingdong is the arrival of a new king, can the concubines in the harem come out?That child must be the future master of the empire, and he can be crowned as the crown prince.Han Chengjue thought of Su Mingyue almost immediately. She has been living among the people for so long, so if she calculates her days, she will give birth soon?There are also alchemists who say that there is a vision in the sky, and there is a fear of war. The chaos in the middle of Shu has been calmed down, and there must be another chaos somewhere. I hope the emperor will make a decision soon.

At this point, Han Chengjue received a report from the spies that the news that the [-] Jurchen troops of [-] troops had broken through the Shanhaiguan Pass and slaughtered ten cities had finally reached the capital, shaking the government and the public.

In the early dynasty, some people said that there were only 5 people in the area, and the chaos in central Shu involved 20 bandits. Wandering.

Gu Changfeng hadn't returned to the imperial court with his teacher, but Old Master Gu was a little unhappy, "Mr. Cao Ge, don't you understand the truth that arrogant soldiers are bound to be defeated? Didn't anyone say that the Twelve Jurchen tribes have slaughtered ten cities in a row? It’s a massacre, not a siege, it can be seen that the Northland is already covered with corpses and blood, and has become a Shura dojo, and you enjoy peace in the capital, it’s easy to say these words.”

Someone also mentioned the vision of Ziwei star moving, saying that this is an ominous omen, and now it has been fulfilled, and the emperor is required to send troops to attack quickly to resist foreign enemies and prevent the disaster of Song Dynasty.

When the court hall was noisy, Liang Guanjing and Chang Qinghe were marching in the muddy torrential rain, blocking the 4 troops of the Jurchen Twelve Division, and the vanguard of the 2 troops were the more than [-] rebels who lured foreign enemies into the customs. .More than [-] of them have to face the [-] troops ahead of them.

At nightfall, Chang Qinghe ordered the whole army to suspend rest and bury the pot for cooking.

After the heavy rain, the firewood could not be lit, and it was extremely urgent to go out. The dry food brought by the soldiers had already been exhausted. At this time, Liang Guanjing suggested that Changqing River should go forward for another fifty miles. Town, the Pioneer Camp to explore the road, you can inform the villagers to prepare cakes and water as soon as possible, so that you can face the battle with sufficient rest.

Chang Qinghe disagreed, "After Wuya Ridge and Pingchuan River, most of the Jurchen troops are cavalry, and most of us are infantry, so it's too bad to fight."

"The heavy rain is muddy, and the horse's feet are deep in the mud. The cavalry has no advantage. If they are not willing to abandon their horses, it is a good time for us to attack." Liang Guanjing drew another circle, "This place is called Hehuadian. In the thousand-acre lowlands, June and July have always been the rainy season, and after two days of heavy rain, this is the best battlefield for hundreds of miles."

Chang Qinghe's eyes lit up, "Li Mingtang, I remember that there are still our warships near Hehuadian, right? Keep these people from outside the pass who come and go on horseback never to return."

"Yes! The boats are not big, they are all small boats, they can't be regarded as standing boats, and I didn't train sailors at the beginning. These boats are used to transport troops in times of flood."

"That's enough. At that time, the Jurchen will be led to this swamp, and our soldiers will go down in a boat to catch the bastard in a quagmire!" Chang Qinghe patted Liang Guanjing's shoulder hard, and felt that the hand felt wrong. I was overstepping the rules and being abrupt.

Liang Guanjing's complexion was not good, but he didn't have an attack.

"The question now is, how to lure the enemy to Hehuadian?" asked another participant, Qianhu.

This difficult problem made all the colleagues, Qianshi, and Qianhu adults at a loss what to do.

Liang Guanjing said: "What is the name of the guard who led the enemy into the pass, Uncle Shang?"

Another said: "That's him."

Liang Guanjing raised his eyebrows and looked at Chang Qinghe, "I heard that he is your right-hand man? Then do you know why he did that?"

Chang Qinghe looked helpless, "First of all, he can't be regarded as my right-hand man. This person is the governor of the guard at a young age. First, because of the opening of the martial arts department in the first year of Hongxi, this person was selected for the Juren because of his versatility in both civil and military affairs. He has a hereditary official position, and he is the commander of the commander, equal to me. He is a young man, so he is inevitably arrogant. Earlier, there were some things that were jealous of the girls in the brothel and other officials' children. I'm afraid he held a grudge early in the morning. Secondly, his father died in the Seven Kings Rebellion. The situation is more complicated. Simply put, he was dissatisfied with the emperor. Thirdly, I heard that his sweetheart is a tribal princess of the Jurchen tribe or something I guess the father-in-law promised him some benefits, this time the chaos in Sichuan, and the emperor's foundation is not stable, he wants to take advantage of the chaos to raise an army, maybe he can... right?"

Liang Guanjing said: "How can such a person be put here to guard Shanhaiguan?"

Chang Qinghe spread his hands, "I have reported to the court many times to transfer Shang Changbo away from Shanhaiguan, but his father made great contributions in the Seven Kings Rebellion, and there are people in the court. The emperor also has some opinions on me after talking too much, so I put this matter on hold."

Liang Guanjing pondered for a moment, "He turned on and off to lure thieves. He is treasonous, and he must be panicked. He didn't expect that the Jurchen even slaughtered ten cities. What will be written about him in the future history books? Now the front army is unimpeded, but the towels are all colleagues. The defenders saw it because they were negligent. I think this person is good at running. This bridge is called Sanyang Bridge. It is an important road passing through Beiping. It should not be too late. Now send someone to blow up the bridge and destroy the road. He can only change the route Going south. The Jurchen tribe marched on horseback, and they didn’t have a boat, so they would definitely not choose to go by water, so they could only come to Hehuadian.”

Changqing River Road: "There is a flat river around the lotus lake, and there are always dry roads. Why ride a horse and ditch the muddy water?"

Liang Guanjing said: "Then I want you, Mr. Chang Qinghe, to risk yourself and act as a bait to lure him to fight. He went all the way south, knowing that sooner or later he will have a fierce battle with you. Instead of waiting for you to come out from behind and make a surprise attack one day. It's better to clean you up now."

Chang Qinghe stroked the short mustache on his chin, remembering how Liang Guanjing praised him for his good looks a few days ago, he couldn't help but feel a little proud, "Then I'll do my part and act as the bait."

Liang Guanjing split another way and attacked from the flanks to block the rear army. At that time, the two armies would fight regardless of each other, and the Jurchen dared not rashly join the melee.As long as the Jurchens watched from the sidelines, Liang Guanjing had his own way to disturb the morale of the army and stop the army from moving forward.

After the deployment was completed, everyone received their errands and acted separately, with Chang Qinghe and Liang Guanjing walking last.

Chang Qinghe said in a low voice: "Mother, you haven't put on a fake beard recently, and your voice is also different from a few days ago, more and more like a woman..."

Of course, Liang Guanjing knew that there were already people talking about her behind her. However, she rode forcibly for several days, not to mention that she didn't have time to press her beard, and no one cooked her the soup for changing her voice. The half bag of medicine in the leather pocket was emptied and replaced with clean water.Although the voice has not returned to its original appearance, it is no longer hoarse and deep, and it sounds half-male and half-female.

"Why, someone asked you?" Liang Guanjing shook his robe.

"It's not about asking me, just gossiping, whispering to each other, asking if you notice it, is it weird? Of course, I don't admit it at all, and I scold them for worrying about these futile things." Chang Qinghe is upright and awe-inspiring.

Liang Guanjing sighed, "Ask again, and you'll just say that I'm indeed a woman, and you've seen it early on."

"what?"

Liang Guanjing said: "If I were a man, I'm afraid I'd be entangled with you." After speaking, he walked away with a look of disgust.

Chang Qinghe felt extremely wronged, and chased after him and said, "If you were really a man, I wouldn't have any unreasonable thoughts about you!"

Liang Guanjing didn't bother to talk to him, "Did Uncle Shang get any news that you don't have time to pay attention to the defense of Shanhaiguan?"

"You mean I have his eyeliner around me?"

"Isn't that obvious?" Liang Guanjing lowered his voice after finishing speaking, "I heard that when the guards found you, you just came out of the spring fortune?"

Chang Qinghe looked embarrassed, "Just that one time! Only that one time! Why did everyone know about it?"

"It turned out to be true..." Liang Guanjing waved his hand, signaling him not to follow, while shaking his head and sighing: "Hey...man!"

After a short rest, the officers finished their meeting, and the whole army rushed another fifty miles to blow up the Sanyang Bridge. Chang Qinghe led his troops to ambush in the Lotus Lake.

The name of this lotus lake is nice, but there is not a single lotus in sight, and there are only endless reeds stretching for several miles.At the edge of the swamp, there are no reeds on the surface of the soil in the dry season, and you can still ride on horseback. When you reach the middle of the streams, there is a deep pond suddenly, and the reeds grow densely. Hundreds of boats on the Changqing River are hidden in the green gauze. The Pioneer Battalion will then raid by boat.The pawns lay behind and scattered around to set up ambushes. Liang Guanjing led the flanks to wait for orders on the other side of the lotus lake.

When it was dawn, there was still silence inside and outside the green gauze tent, only the sound of insects and frogs.

The north wind began to blow across the water, and there was a chill in the air. Although it was not biting, it was very debilitating.

Chang Qinghe stood at a high place and looked around, the scarf danced behind him, and the quiet surroundings made him burn with anxiety.At this moment, he actually felt as if he was waiting for his lover, because it was a private meeting, he was afraid that he would not come.Just after slaughtering the last city, the Jurchens deliberately let more than a dozen villagers go, letting them spread the news of the army's suppression along the way, so as to frighten the soldiers and civilians ahead.Chang Qinghe even wondered if the villagers they rescued were telling the truth. Could it be that the Jurchens bypassed Beiping and went south to cross the Yellow River to take the capital?

Suddenly, the gulls and herons flew in front of them, and the horses began to neigh because they stepped on the air and fell into the water.

"Here we come!" Li Mingtang whispered behind him.

Cold arrows whizzed and flew through the reeds, the enemy was already close at hand

Chang Qinghe managed to dodge it, and almost jumped up happily, "Here we come! Beat the drum as a sign, and the forward battalion will attack immediately!"

For a moment, the sound of shouting and killing shook the sky, and the birds in the reed marshes started up one after another, and scattered and flew high in groups.When the large group of people hesitated at the edge of the swamp, a team came in obliquely like a sharp sword, completely dispersing the officers and soldiers. They didn't know whether the ambush was in front or behind, someone called us to ambush Some people said that Chang Qinghe had come, and others said that the imperial court had sent reinforcements.

A bannerman threw down the towel fan, and the officer who supervised the battle behind him scolded: "What are you doing?"

A head of a hundred households pointed at Liang Guanjing in front of the line with trembling fingers: "That's a woman, I know her, she is the Empress!"

Someone nearby cried bitterly, "The imperial court's reinforcements are here, the imperial court's reinforcements are here!"

The chief who supervised the battle raised his hand and was about to stab the head of the hundred households who was shouting with his sword to death. A feathered arrow was shot in the chest, and he fell off the horse in response.

Liang Guanjing stopped the black horse under him, and the horse stood up abruptly. In the morning light, Liang Guanjing looked murderous, and pointed at the head of a hundred households with his sword: "Liu Wusi, don't come here without any harm! Do you still want to help the tyrant to continue the abuse?" Why don’t you hurry up and turn to the light and fight back with me? Eradicate foreign enemies and defend the country!”

After days of marching, Liu Wusi and his soldiers saw the Jurchens massacring cities and villages, burning, killing and looting. Wherever they passed, not a single blade of grass grew. However, the heads and minds were full of faces, and some soldiers categorically abandoned their armor and left. Many of them were hacked and killed before the battle, and there were many who secretly became deserters. Many people had long since given up, so how could they withstand such agitation at this time.

"Eradicate foreign enemies, defend the country!" Liu Wusi yelled, swinging his sword to the sky, and rushed to the Jurchen team behind the team who were watching from the sidelines.

"Eliminate foreign enemies, defend the country!" The soldiers below him shouted in unison, and turned to follow their head of a hundred households.

"Brothers, come with me, eradicate foreign enemies, defend our home and country!" Liang Guanjing galloped forward with his whip whipped towards the east!Xiyu beside her silently picked up the military flag with the word "Shang" that fell on the ground, held it high, and followed her closely behind her at a distance of a horse's length.
