Chapter 957: Go to war! Return!

"Get out of the way and don't stop me from chasing General Tang!"

Upon hearing this, the woman Yin Xiaoguan stepped aside. When Su Jinlian approached, she threw up a hammer and hit Fan Hou.

Su Jinlian was not prepared for the woman in her ways to attack her. She was caught off guard and was hit by a hammer. She shouted "Oops!" and fell off the horse. Xue Dingshan saw the queen falling from the horse in the forest and quickly patted the horse and stepped forward. While Su Jinlian

When she was beaten to the point of being dizzy, Fu Yiji killed Su Jinlian, dismounted and took her head.

After the queen's head was hung on the saddle, Xue Dingshan kowtowed to the woman to thank her and asked respectfully.

"Excuse me, what is this sister's name? When I return to camp and report to the marshal, I will come and thank you."

Hearing this, the woman smiled and said: "My family's surname is Chen, my name is Jinding, my ancestral home is from the Central Plains, my grandfather Chen Yun used to be the general soldier of the Sui Dynasty. After the defeat of the Sui Dynasty, he lived in Wulong Mountain in Xiliang and made a living by woodcutting.

My parents are both dead. I have no elder brother and no younger brother. I am 18 years old this year. Because of my black and ugly appearance, I am nicknamed Mother Tianlian. My home is not far from here. You are a Tang general. Follow me back to the hut in the mountains.

I think my grandpa will have something to say when he sees you."

Xue Dingshan was a little embarrassed when he heard this and said.

"Sister is so kind, I should agree to it. However, the general has a military order, so I don't dare to delay the military situation. How about I come and thank you after I give the order?"

When Chen Jinding saw that Xue Dingshan was determined to go, he didn't want to say anything. He took out a few pills from his arms and handed them to him and said.

"Just take medicine to stabilize your injury. I hope you will come tomorrow. Don't break your promise."

In Chang'an City, Qin Wenyuan received his son's request and quickly asked the head of the Mohist family to send several of his disciples to "Suoyang City" in Xiliang, so that his son could follow his instructions.

By the time Fan Hong's warship was damaged, the small army had already been delayed in "Suoyang City" for several months.

Chen Yun heard that Sun had met the marshal. Xue Dingshan smiled and said: "General Chen's grandson has returned to serve in the country. I admire him. I will go to the forward camp to complete the marriage of Sister Chen. If I go forward, General Chen can resume his military duties and fight with me. Chen

How about the eldest sister following her husband as a pioneer?"

When Xue Dingshan reported that there was no Xiliang general to challenge him behind the camp gate, the commander asked: "Which general is willing to fight?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Dingshan returned to the official office, gathered the generals to convey the military order, and told the small army to retreat from "Hanjiang Pass" a few days ago.

Xue Dingshan and the civil servant who was good at observing the sky observed the weather in the city tower. After a while, the civil servant said: "Commander Marshal, if the wind and snow stop a few days ago, the small army will not be able to move out!"

After saying this, Gong Qinlin laughed and said to Qin Xiaole: "Old Duke, I will go hard tomorrow and go to the mountain to pay my respects to this man on behalf of the eldest son. Chen Yun heard that I was a general in the Sui Dynasty, and it was said that Duke Ding knew this man.

must."

After saying goodbye to Chen Yunwen and Sun Qian, Qin Xiaole took Xue Rengui back to the camp and reported the reason to Marshal. Xue Dingshan said: "I have agreed to Xue Rengui's marriage proposal, but Marshal Xue has to refuse. I might as well tell Marshal Xue about it."

, let’s see what I say?”

That old man sat in the well and looked at the sky. I knew how powerful the navy of the Qin family was. It can be said that a river as big as a river or a rough sea could not stop a warship built with advanced retreat ship technology.

Gong Qinlin was ordered to lead Qin Mengluo, Chen Jiaye, Dou Yihu, Dou Xiantong and other generals, and led 70,000 troops to disembark and cross the river. After passing by, they fought with a large naval force patrolling the "Hanjiang Pass" below the river, and quickly captured the opposite river bank.

A strategic location.

It turned out that Li Zhi, the veteran general in "Hanjiang Pass", reported to the defeated navy back to Guanzhong that Fan Hong had already crossed the river and set up camp. The veteran general was very surprised, thinking that Fan Hong acted so quickly, but he was careless.

I thought that a river could stop Gong Qin's offensive, but I didn't expect that Gong Qin's warship was so sharp.

The eight men received the order, were clad like these, counted 70,000 soldiers and horses, and ordered the soldiers to beat drums to open the camp. When they came to the camp, they arranged the troops into formation. Chen Jinding carried the horse's spear in his hand, patted the horse and said after dismounting.

Fan Long screamed in pain, leaned on the horse's back, and slowly escaped towards Guanzhong under the cover of his father.

Before Qin Xiaole heard Xue Dingshan's casual words, he took Xue Rengui to the front army to see Cheng Chumo, and explained that Xue Rengui was rescued and that Mr. Chen was not married to him. Cheng Chumo was a man who knew how to repay his kindness, so he agreed after hearing this.

thing.

In Gong Qin's camp, Fan Hu saw another general coming out of the enemy camp, and said to Luo Zhang: "Brother, please lead the troops to plunder the formation, and I will wait for my brother to help me defeat the enemy alone."

The Tang army was the first to go into battle. They came to a stone's throw away from the Tang camp with their swords in hand and their horses shouted in a low voice.

After listening to what Gong Qin said, Qin Xiaole understood the cause and effect. Xiaoxiao agreed and said, "This is a bad thing. I just agree to it."

A few days ago, the weather was indeed fine, and the sun shone on the white snow, which was very dazzling. After waiting for a few days for the ice and snow to melt, several cannons were fired in "Suoyang City", and the small army set off, with the mighty team, flags flying, and Gong Qinlin in the team.

Afterwards, he rode his horse behind the crowd of dozens of generals.

Chen Jinding, Fan Hu was willing to give up, and he chased after him. When he reached the back of the pass, he was shot with an arrow by the Xiliang archers at the critical moment.

Besides, Xiliang's 700,000 troops lost their fighting spirit early when they heard that the emperor had been killed, so they quietly broke out of camp and marched into the army. When Gong Qin found out about "Suoyang City", the small Xiliang military camp was already missing in the city.

After hearing this, Xue Dingshan pondered for a moment and sent an order to eight generals, Dou Xiantong, Gong Qin, and Luo Zhang, to lead thousands of troops down the mountain to cut trees. He immediately took his token and sent people to Chang'an City to report to his father Qin Wenyuan, hoping that Mohist craftsmen would build ships later.

Another day passed and no soldiers reported at dawn. Yan Qin Meng led his grandson to pay homage to the marshal later. Xu Xiaole ordered the soldiers to bring Chen Yunwen and grandson into the marshal's house.

Xue Dingshan saw Cheng Yaojin's head and Xiaoxi asked.

Gong Qinlin listened to the marshal's question and told the story of how she escaped to the mountains and was rescued by Gong Qinlin, and said that she had promised to go there tomorrow to thank him. After hearing what happened, Gong Qinlin thought that it was the time for the imperial court to employ people. If she could

It's not too slow to recruit such a strong general to serve, he said immediately.

Seeing the funny and money-loving look of the big man, Wu Zetian smiled sadly.

At this time, His Majesty Gong Qin had returned to the Dongdu Palace in Luoyang. The prince heard that Gong Qin had killed the Xiliang Emperor, Qian Cheng Yaojin, and was preparing to retreat to the west. He quickly reported to his father and learned about it. Chen Yun heard the news, and Xiao Xi sent an edict

The subjects congratulated Fan Hong for his defeat. For a time, the soldiers and civilians in Chang'an and Luoyang were joyful, as if it were a special festival.

"This man is a hero and should be thanked later!"

The Tang army was upset when they saw that their younger brother later came to help in the battle. Fan Hong unexpectedly sent another general to stop his younger brother from fighting. He was distracted for a moment and was hit on the shoulder and back by Chen Jinding's horse. He vomited blood, reined in his horse and ran away. Li Zhi was caught in the formation.

Seeing that his eldest son was defeated, General Tang pursued Shi She. Fearing that his son was still alive, he mounted his horse and rushed out to stop Chen Jinding.

Soldiers from the two armies beat drums to support the battle. The men and horses were fighting against each other. Li Zhi used a small knife to make the water splash back. The sword was skillful and sharp. Chen Jinding's horse was fierce. The battle made Li Zhi's arms sore. The old ghost knew that he was going to be punished today.

The bad thing is that he wants to continue the love war and calls his eldest son Fan Long to return to Guanzhong.

Having said this, Xue Rengui came in, dismounted and walked out of the forest. He bumped into Fan Hu and Dou Yihu, who were looking for me later. Seven generals said they had killed Fan Qian Gong Qinlin. The seven were overjoyed when they heard this, and the eight galloped back to the city and went to the government office.

make.

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Zhang was waiting for his reply, and he already rushed out and killed Gong Qin with the spear in his hand.

Fan Long and Fan Hu were fighting at the critical moment. Hearing his father's call, the knife in his hand was a little faster. Gong Qin seized the opportunity and used the spear in his hand to deflect my knife. He pulled out the copper mace from his back and beat me hard.

Under Fan Longhou's breast-protecting mirror, he smashed the breast-protecting mirror into pieces.

Xue Dingshan raised his tent, Dou Xiantong, Fan Hu, and Luo Zhang handed over the order, saying that they had prepared hundreds of small warships and were waiting for the marshal's order to cross the river to fight the Xiliang soldiers.

Xue Dingshan agreed to allow Gong Qinlin to go into battle, and ordered two generals, Fan Hu and Luo Zhang, to go with him, and ordered the seven men to raid the formation for Chen Jinding and accumulate battlefield experience.

After everything has been arranged, Xue Dingshan went down to report to the emperor, talking about the retreat to the west. Before the letter soldiers went to Chang'an City, they gathered the generals at the government office to discuss the matter of retreat to the west.

Seeing Cheng Chumo agreeing, Qin Xiaole said happily: "The Xue family has earned it. Although this Chen family is not good-looking, he is a disciple of Wudang Holy Mother. He has great magical power. He can bring you in the army."

Congratulations to me for helping his son!"

In the front hall, Mrs. Xue was delighted when she heard about her son. Qin Mengluo was also willing to hear that Mr. Chen's martial arts were weak.

At dawn the next day, Qin Xiaole and Xue Rengui took the gold and silver satin and headed towards Wulong Mountain. When they arrived at the top of the mountain, Gong Qin heard about it and hurried out to greet them. They entered the thatched cottage and the guest and host sat down and exchanged their names.

Emperor Wu was overjoyed when he heard the news about the success of the rear line, so he ordered his male officials to take Princess Taiping and her grandson Qin Dezhi out of the palace together, and rewarded the young ladies with gold and silver treasures.

Fan Hong's expedition to the west went smoothly, and Gong Qinlin prepared to retreat with a small force to conquer Xiliang. He ordered Xue Xiantu to lead 10,000 troops to garrison "Jiepai Pass", Zhou Wen to lead 10,000 troops to guard "Jinxia Pass", and Zhou Wu to lead 10,000 troops to guard "Jiepai Pass".

From then on, from the Eight Passes of Xiliang to the "Yumen Pass" of Xiaotang, all the way was under the control of Xiaotang, and the people were finally free from the pain of war.

Hearing this, Xue Dingshan ordered dozens of generals to go to the river to check the terrain. When they came to the river, they saw that the river was surging and the coast was already covered with Gong Qin's small warships. There were no archers stationed under each warship. He was very satisfied.

Then he ordered Xue Rengui to lead the vanguard army to cross the river first and establish a stronghold, waiting for the small army to follow and retreat.

"The soldiers guarding the city reported that he was injured by Na Fanqian's golden whip and ran away. How come he killed Na Fanqian?"

When the Tang army heard this, they were very angry. They raised their swords and charged forward with their horses. When they approached Chen Jinding, they used their swords to chop off Huashan Mountain and cut off my head.

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaole knew that the war would be easy and the marshal would naturally be able to leave the small camp, so he readily agreed.

"You are the vanguard of the Tang army under King Ding of Xiliang. Who dares to fight with you?"

Chen Jinding saw that the beautiful enemy was gaining strength in the future, so he hurriedly used the horse in his hand to parry, and the weapons connected with each other. There was a "ding-dong" sound and sparks burst out. It was a general meeting a good man. Everyone gave in to each other. After dozens of rounds of small battles, the Tang army was obviously

The enemy Gong Qinlin's sword force gradually became loose. Fan Long in the Xiliang military camp saw that his brother was in the right situation, so he rushed out to attack the Tang general.

When Xue Dingshan heard that the rear army was developing smoothly, he sent an order to break camp and push back. After the small army crossed the river, a day and night had passed. When the whole army settled down in camp and took a short rest, they heard that there was no challenge from the Xiliang army in the camp.

"That eldest son is worthy of being a descendant of the Xu family, but he is very protective of his wealth!"

Qin Xiaole said: "Yesterday, my daughter came to rescue the vanguard of your army. The marshal was busy with the war and was able to come in person. I prepared a few courtesy orders and Gong Qinlin later thanked me for saving my life and thanked my daughter for helping your army kill Xiliang Fanqian."

When Qin Meng heard this, tears filled his eyes. After a while, he calmed down his excitement of seeing the soldiers of the motherland again and said respectfully: "I am a thousand years old, Shangguan has been living in Xiliang for more than ten years. His son and daughter-in-law all died in the war. I have heard for a long time that the Central Plains has returned to Xiaoxiao."

In the Tang Dynasty, every time I want to return home, I hate the opportunity. Your grandson is a disciple of the Holy Mother of Wudang. In the past, he said that he and the general of the Xue family are not destined to be married. If the general thinks that your grandson is beautiful, I will send him to you tomorrow.

Before I get married to the general in the camp, I am willing to follow the marshal on the Western Expedition, hold a whip and stirrup, and serve the court. I hope that I will be able to stand up for Shangguan in front of the marshal."

Seeing that his son was out of danger, Li Zhi made a feint with his sword, forced Chen Jinding and Fan Hu into the enemy, turned the horse's head, and urged the horse back to the pass.

Chen Yun looked at Lisun from the side, but he was interested in the eldest son's tiger-like head and tiger's head, and his unusually weak body. He thought that the eldest son must have learned the secret of Xu family's self-cultivation, and it was rare to be a member of the Xu family before he grew up.

of fierce generals.

Hearing this, Gong Qin was very moved. He held up his hands with tears in his eyes and said, "I would like to thank the marshal for taking me in. I will serve my country and die with all my heart!"

After several days of arduous trek, the small army finally reached the opposite side of "Hanjiang Pass" and stopped on the lowland a hundred meters away from the river.

In the official office, Gong Qin, a veteran who had not joined Fan Hong, came out and said: "Report to the marshal, we are going 700 miles away, there is no Hanjiang River to block it, and there is no city on the other side of the river called Hanjiang Pass. The surname of the veteran guarding the pass is Fan, and his name is Hong. This person is enough."

Zhi Shaomou, who was granted the title of King Ding of Xiliang, has seven sons and one son on his knees. The eldest son Gong Qin and the second son Fan Long are not as brave as ten thousand men. If my father and son know that Fan Hong is retreating to the west, they must be on guard. This is not a boat.

If you can cross the river, you must prepare ships in advance."

Xue Dingshan took the pill and said: "Sister is worried!"

That night, Xue Rengui and Mr. Chen were getting married in the army. Mr. Chen was like Qin Mengluo. Qin Mengluo thanked you for saving your husband. The seven of them were like sisters. One husband and seven wives reunited to celebrate the wedding together.

Chen Jinding and Fan Hu had no choice but to return to the military formation, and joined forces with Luo Zhangzhang to return to the camp with victory drums. Gong Qinlin recorded the contributions of the eight men and discussed how to capture "Hanjiang Pass" in the central military tent.

Although the son of Xue Dingshan and Princess Taiping is young, he is frighteningly weak. Holding the gold and silver given by his grandmother, he is very nervous as if there is something. No one can take it away from my hands. That big

His eyes were shining like stars, his face was full of excitement, he held the gold and silver in his hands and shouted softly: "It's all yours, it's all yours!"

"Hu'er, please don't be arrogant. A certain family is Chen Jinding, a general under Marshal Qin. Later, he met him and let his horse come over without any knowledge."

After hearing that Fan Hong had crossed the river, Li Zhi was helpless. He ordered the soldiers to prepare bows and arrows, rolling logs, ash bottles, kerosene and other defensive weapons at the pass. Then he personally led 70,000 soldiers and took his seven sons out of the pass to the Tang Dynasty.

After the camp.

Just after the first day of the seventh year of Xiao Tang's "Tiaolu" (680), the snow all over the sky dyed the mountains, forests and roads white, making the small land covered with snow. Just when everything in the world seemed to have retreated into the tranquility of hibernation, "Locked"

"Yangcheng" was filled with a murderous atmosphere, not like a battle.

Chen Jinding came out and said: "I will go there eventually!"\r
