Chapter 567 Cangli (5)
"I'll go south."
Pressing the fingers on the strings of the guzheng, on the small building in the exquisite courtyard, the woman raised her head and looked at her husband in front of her.
Wanyan Xiyin sat there, looked up slightly at the ceiling, and took a breath. He was already in his forties and was nearly fifty years old. Although he was famous for his literary reputation, he could fight all the way among the Jurchens and gain great authority. The man in front of him also had enough majesty and murderous aura, but only in front of this concubine, his murderous aura would not be taken out.
"Your Majesty has finished preparations and the imperial edict has arrived. We will go south in two ways, and Nianhan will lead the left side, and be the left deputy marshal, and I will be the supervisor. Today... we will set off."
"Nianhan..." Chen Wenjun opened his mouth slightly. As the most warlike and decisive general among the Jurchens, another name of Nianhan is Wanyan Zonghan. The domineering man played a great role in the road to rebellion and becoming emperor. She also saw him, "You... have never said it before."
The mobilization and gathering of a large army is impossible to complete. Although Xiyin's status is under Zonghan and can only be considered a deputy, in his identity, he must have known about this. Hearing the woman's question, Xiyin sighed.
"I have always opposed the matter of taking the Wu Dynasty in the south, but the emperor's will has been decided and cannot be changed. You know that it is just a troublesome thing. I know that you still have feelings for the Wu Dynasty. This time, the troops will spread and the chickens and dogs will not be kept. If you have any family or relatives in the south, you will say to me and I will bring them here for you."
After he said this, the woman was silent for a while. Then she smiled: "No more..."
Xi Yin nodded, he stood up, walked over, put his hand on Chen Wenjun's shoulder, and Chen Wenjun also put his forehead on his lower abdomen. After all, the couple had been together for many years. Xi Yin admired Sinology. Chen Wenjun was also a lady from a scholarly family. She was wandering in the north and was struggling with trees. She might have felt helpless at first. Gradually, they were both impressed by each other and became admiration with similar interests. In this era, all this was hard to come by. However, at this time, the country was in opposition. Although Chen Wenjun married a chicken and followed the chicken, he had already been recognized by the Jurchens. But it cannot be said that he did not feel heavy in his heart.
"After going south, you don't have to worry about me at home. I have already explained the affairs of the family to the manager. Everything will follow the previous rules. If you feel tired, you don't have to engage in social activities. But if someone is despised by you, don't care about the inside and outside of the family, just fight it out. You are my Wanyan Xiyin's wife and cannot tolerate outsiders to point fingers. After the Wu Dynasty is done... When I come back, you are the mistress of my family, and I will report this to Your Majesty..."
"You don't have to think too much, I know." Chen Wenjun smiled softly, and then said, "I just hope that your husband will go south this time and remember that God has a good life. Don't... hurt the innocent. When the Jinwu fights, please forgive me for not wishing you a triumphant success, but I will pray here every day, hoping that your husband will return safely."
"That's enough. I won't hold back in the battle formation, but outside the battle formation, the prosperity of the Wu Dynasty, I will try my best to stay. I'm leaving, don't send me away."
Wanyan Xiyin hugged her and turned around and left. In the past, if Wanyan Xiyin went on a war, as half of the hostess, she would definitely be sent to the door of her house, but this time he said he didn't need to give it away, which was also considered his admiration and understanding of Wu Chao. Chen Wenjun had many words in his heart, but he could not say a single word. She walked out of the door and watched the steady steps of her husband walking out of the yard on the terrace, with his shoulders falling down, and finally sighed and closed his eyes.
She stood on the terrace for a while, listened to the sound of the wind and movements around her, and then called out: "Luqi." That was the maid's name, "Go ahead and look at it, see when your husband has left, come back and tell me that I want to pray for my husband's safety."
The maid who came over left responded. Her eyes calmed down, she raised her hand to wipe the wetness in her eyes, and walked back to the room. She took out a picture of plum blossoms that she had drawn for a long time and had not finished drawing. She spread it out, took out another note and wrote a few lines of small words on the note.
Before she finished writing the words, the noisy footsteps came from the downstairs. This was a wooden building, and the light footsteps in the stairwell could be heard clearly. She put away the notes, but at this time they came up with two children. The older sister was six years old, named Wanyan Qingxue, and the younger brother was three years old, named Wanyan Qiming, both of them were her and Wanyan Xiyin's children. As soon as the three-year-old brother came up, he rushed to his mother's side.
"Mom, mom, dad is going out. Let's see you. Dad said you are unhappy, let's make you happy. Why are you unhappy, mom?"
Chen Wenjun hugged him and said with a smile: "Mom is not unhappy."
Wanyan Qingxue stood aside. She was six years old and seemed well-behaved, and she was not as tired as her younger brother. "Mom must be unhappy because her father was leaving. Dad went out to beat the bad guy again, but she would never come for a long time."
Chen Wenjun's eyes shook, then pulled her daughter over and sighed: "No, this time my dad wasn't going out to beat the bad guy."
"What did Dad go out to fight?"
"Well... if we don't talk about this, you will know when you grow up. Now... will my mother play with you?"
The two children clapped and laughed. The woman accompanied the children to play games. After a while, the maid Luqi came back and told her that the owner of the family had left. The few people played for a while, and because of the father's departure, both children stuck to their mother. It was not until that afternoon that a secret message was secretly transmitted from the mansion.
Two large armies were already on the way south. The information was spreading to the south through galloping horses, boats, and carrier pigeons. Soon after, an old man named Zhou Tong rode his horse and galloped south quickly at night in the stars in the north. Thousands of troops, the letters and imperial edicts of the Jin emperor, rushed to the south with immeasurable huge information, and the north and south were like a huge nervous system. When the news rushed to the land of Youyan, the Wu Chao in the south was still rushing to the joy of the Qixi Festival. Then the first wave of news rushed to Yanjing Mansion, like huge neurons bursting, and countless nerves were cremated, rushing towards the huge body of Wu Chao.
July 18th. The wave of information rushed to the peak of Gouzhu Mountain and spread across the towering Yanmen Pass.
On July 19th, the news rushed through Taiyuan! By land, water, galloping horses were galloping among the post roads, running through the mountains and ridges, downtown rivers, and 800 miles of speed. All available news channels were running wildly and extending rapidly!
Then, on the night of July 20th, in the brightly lit city, the palace was already closed, and the galloping horse rushed towards the palace...
The news of the invasion of the Jin people was like the sudden thunder, and the huge vibration continued to spread with a crazy electric arc. Countless people received the news one after another. On the 20th of July, when Ning Yi received the note, he was in the restaurant in Zhuji. The person who came was Puyang Yi from Jiangning, and accompanied him at the same time, Shi Shi and another popular woman on the Anchor Tower. On the stage in the restaurant, the performers were singing.
In the past year, for some deliberate reasons, the performances in the Bamboo Records are usually mixed with some ancient war songs or music about war. At this time, the military song "Fu of Thoughts on Return" from the Chu State during the Chu period during the Chu Han Dynasty. At this time, the music was played, and there was a subtle feeling in the noise of the streets outside.
The lyrics of "Fu of Return" are as follows:
"The grass is green and the willows are green, and the thoughts are endless.
I miss you, I don’t see you, I wait for you to return.
I ask my lover, Hu Bugui, my hometown is waiting for you to return.
Thousands of slender and slender, floating steps, meeting in full bloom.
I am thinking about it, but you don’t see it, and I am so confused that I am so worried about it.
Ask people. Hu Bugui, waiting for you to return..."
At Ning Yi's home, Xiaochan gave birth to a boy for only four days, and Puyang Yi had already visited Ning Mansion during the day. While speaking, Qi Xinhan quickly ran upstairs with a piece of information. Ning Yi opened it and looked at it, and then rolled it up.
The expression on his face became cold as soon as he read the information. Puyang Yi felt a sudden change, and Shishi also felt it. After reading the information, it seemed that all the feelings suddenly faded from the face of the young scholar and friend next to him, and then there seemed to be only calm and pure reason left on his face. He looked at Puyang Yi opposite him, pressed the table with his right hand, and patted it gently twice, as if he was considering the words.
Puyang Yi said: "Is there anything wrong with the children at home..."
"No, there are other things..."
Ning Yi stood up and said goodbye, then looked at Shishi: "I'm leaving, you sit down and ask someone to take you back to the Alum Tower later."
"Yes." Shishi came to the Zhuji performance for more than once or twice. At this moment, he nodded subconsciously, trying to say something, but before he could say it, Ning Yi had already walked downstairs.
He walked down the Alum Tower, and on the street, several people were walking over, one of them: "Aha, Ning Yi!" But it was Gao Muen, who was in charge. However, as Ning Yi's steps were coming, he subconsciously wanted to retreat: "You, you..." The guards beside him were also coming to stop Ning Yi, but Ning Yi opened his hands.
With a bang, his figure directly passed the blocking guard and hugged Gao Muen hard. Gao Muen: "Um... cough cough cough cough..." He almost vomited blood, his face turned red, but Ning Yi then let him go and patted him on the face: "Funny, take care of yourself."
When Gao Muen recovered, Ning Yi had already walked away from home. He bent down and covered his chest, turned around and raised his hand, extremely confused: "Ah?"
Ning Yi got on the carriage, Zhu Biao, Qi Xinhan and others all got on.
"Send people north to inform General Qin Shaoqian that the five hundred people in Dulonggang can deliver the goods after training. Zhu Ji launched the first emergency plan. All northern personnel sent to the north quickly gathered after completing the survey tasks at hand. The archive of the data must be completed as quickly as possible. Go to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion."
After a series of orders that were so fast that they almost didn't carry any punctuation marks, the carriage drove to the Prime Minister's Mansion. When he arrived at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Qin Siyuan had already boarded the carriage and was preparing to go to the imperial city. He hurriedly asked Ning Yi to get on the carriage and discuss matters directly.
At the same time, countless people were already moving, running, gathering in the entire city. In the imperial city, Emperor Zhou Zhe pushed down everything on the imperial desk with a "ah——" sounded loudly, the curtains around him swayed and the lights shaking.
On July 22, the Jin people denounced the letter of the Wu Dynasty, which was accused by the Zhang Jue incident, and arrived in Bianliang, demanding compensation from the Wu Dynasty and ceding all the land north of the Yellow River. While the civil and military officials of the dynasty denounced the absurdity of this letter, the continuous development of the Jin army did not wait for an answer. They had already launched an attack on the front line that stretched thousands of miles north.
On July 23, the Jin people's Eastern Route Army divided into two groups. General Wanyan Chang led the southward army to conquer Gubeikou north of Yanjing, and captured Tanzhou on the same day. At the same time, Wanyan Zongwang led the westward army to cross the Yutian area in Hebei. Four days later, he conquered Jizhou, an important town east of Yanjing, forming a siege against Yanjing like a heavy force.
Two years later, the Jin people once again pushed the war to the former capital of the Liao Kingdom. To the west, the Western Army led by Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Xiyin had already pushed the Yanmen Pass all the way.
On July 27th, on the day Wanyan Zongwang conquered Jizhou, Guo Yaoshi, Zhang Linghui and others led the Changsheng Army to attack, and refused to fight Wanyan Zongwang in Chaobai River east of Yanjing. This is the only team that belongs to the Wu Dynasty and can truly fight. Guo Yaoshi joined the Wu Dynasty and buried his head in training and gritted his teeth and persevered. On the opposite side, he was the second son of Aguda, the Jin** soul before Wushu. He didn't have to consider who could block him. There were not many curves on both sides. Guo Yaoshi arrived at Chaobai River and set up a formation, and Wanyan Zongwang rushed forward.
