Chapter 8 Chapter 8 Overcoming the Years

Wei Rui and Cao Jingzong led 200,000 reinforcements to the rescue, Zhong Licheng had no way of knowing in a short time.In fact, the enemy's 800,000 army is between Zhongli City and the reinforcements, and it has become a form of being attacked from both sides. However, the commander-in-chief of the Wei Army, King Zhongshan, can handle it well in both directions. There is room to spare. When the 800,000 Wei army appeared like an iron cloud on the north bank of the Huaihe River, Chang Yizhi of Liang once said: "Zhengdong, Pingdong, and Zhendong have all come, so Anton must be somewhere nearby!"

However, this prediction was wrong! Wei's Anton general, Xing Luan, was not on the front line of Zhongli, but was in the capital Luoyang as Duzhi Shangshu.This judgment is correct.But in the end this proposal was aborted.Of course, no one can deny their talents, but because of the struggle in the palace, "Hungry Eagle Attendant", "Hungry Tiger General", Xing Luan, etc. can only pretend to stay in Beijing obediently. One day in late December, the young Emperor Xuanwu called Xing Luan.Xing Luan was an important minister in the time of his father's death. Emperor Xuanwu didn't like it. He only had a blind date with foreigners who were the same age as himself, and kept his former important ministers at a respectful distance.However, this matter cannot be handed over to Side Jin. He intends to order Xing Luan to lead an army of 100,000 to Zhongli as the reinforcements of King Zhongshan.

Xing Luan answered the emperor calmly and said: "The Liang army is not our army's opponent in the field, so they can only stick to the city, coupled with the support of the water army, this is not what our army can win in a short period of time. But in the wetland with heavy rain and soft soil Even our well-trained cavalry could do nothing, so I thought from the very beginning that this dispatch was just a matter of reluctance." Emperor Xuanwu frowned: "Zhongshan, he..." Emperor Xuanwu lowered his voice for some reason: "Zhongshan said to me before sending troops: If the Southern Expedition fails, I will return the throne to the court and retire from the court. Do you think it is true?"

"I think that Zhongshan is not a person who does not keep his word." "Ok!" "It's just that I don't think things will be as good as Zhongshan's self-confidence and calculation. If you have self-confidence, you will definitely succeed, then there will be no defeats in ancient times!" There is malice in these words!Emperor Xuanwu smiled: "Indeed, it is impossible for Zhongshan to have no flaws at all, and there were quite a few famous generals in the Southern Dynasty, so Qing wanted to help him..." "Zhongshan won't like my minister going to rescue him!"

The reason why Xing Luan called Zhongshan directly was because it was an answer to the emperor, just like the situation of Xiao Yan and Chen Qingzhi before. "And even so, Zhongshan still said that he would capture Zhongli City within eighty days?" "In my humble opinion, this is impossible!" Emperor Xuanwu looked at Xing Luan with meaningful eyes.The sound produced is strangely low: "If Zhongshan can capture Zhongli within 80 days, his martial arts will definitely surpass that of Qing. In the future, Zhongshan will definitely decide the plan of the Southern Expedition, and there will be no room for you to speak!"

"yes!" Xing Luan was not provoked by the young emperor.Although Emperor Xuanwu found all this very interesting, there was nothing he could do about this calm and talented minister. "What you said just now is all hypothetical, so how do you want to control this situation? Tell me about your good strategy!" To the emperor's question, Xing Luan replied: "I hope that I can send one of my ministers to Zhongli to persuade Zhongshan to withdraw his troops according to the imperial decree. If he doesn't listen to his advice and continue to form a camp, then I think he probably wants to stay in the camp and live and die with him!"

Emperor Xuanwu frowned again and thought about it: "In other words, you think it is absolutely impossible to win!" "yes!" "I know, this matter has never happened, step back!" Xing Luan stepped back after bowing respectfully.Emperor Xuanwu said to a person beside him: "Ziyan! Your father is such a serious person!" The person he was talking to was Xing Luan's eldest son, whose surname was of course Xing, his name was Xun, and his style name was Ziyan. He was sixteen years old at the time. His father Xing Luan was a man with a long body and beautiful beard, majesty and style, while his son Xing Xun recorded in the "Book of Wei": "Although his appearance is ugly, he is quite elegant", which means that he is short in stature and has a good face. Thin, but he was easy to come and go in and out of the palace when he was young, and his talent was well known.He replied to the young emperor in a frightened voice:

"I'm really sorry! Chen's father is such a character. However, he doesn't have any malice towards the Holy One!" Only then did Emperor Xuanwu relax his tone: "Then, as Xing Luan said, Zhongshan may not have a high chance of winning! From this point of view, after this defeat, Zhongshan's belligerent spirit will be slightly restrained!" In the future, Xing Xun once said to his father: "Although my father is a loyal minister, he is not a loving father." Although the listeners expressed emotion, it can also be seen that Xing Luan is not a very good family member.

Xing Luan died at the age of fifty-one.According to the records of "Wei Shu", it is "sudden death", that is, sudden death, unexpected death.When this is recorded in the history books, most of them were either assassinated or murdered. ... In this way, Xing Luan did not participate in the Battle of Zhongli, and of course Liang Jun could not know what he said in Luoyang.Liang Jun only formed a perfect confrontation with Wei Jun with a strong camp built overnight. "Wei Hu (referring to Wei Rui who looks like a tiger) is here!" The generals of the Wei army couldn't help feeling terrified.It is not surprising that Wei Rui, who was able to fall the city of Hefei, which had been in the past for 120 years, would scare Wei Jun with his ingenuity.King Zhongshan also made a strategy for the whole army: not to go out to fight easily.

However, there are still people who have never heard of Wei Rui's name. These are probably people who were born in cavalry warfare and mountain warfare in the north or west. They have the following fierce claims: "The one called 'Tiger' should be a brave general. An old man with white hair and beard like this should be ruined in one battle!" For King Zhongshan, it is not a good thing to lower the morale of the main combat faction. He first went to the south bank of the Huai River, and then transferred Yang Dayan to the north bank. After reorganizing the whole army, he ordered Yuan Kang, Ning Yongren, Pan Baozhu, Li Chong and other generals led 50,000 soldiers to attack Liang Jun's camp.Although the Wei army attacked first with cavalry, they had to dismount because of the antlers. Under the cover of the shield, the Wei army received the rain of arrows from the Liang army.At this time, Wei Rui was standing on the watchtower made of wood, and of course, this was also where the enemy's arrows concentrated.

"Father! It's dangerous, please go down!" Wei An, who was together, lowered his body and groaned, but Wei Rui ignored his advice: "I never knew you were such a timid person, I really don't know whose child it is!" "Of course I'm your father's son!" "Hmph! How do you look like a mother!" Wei An only bowed his head and said: "Now is not the time to make such silly jokes! You still have a heavy mission for the Holy Majesty, you should go to a safer place to command first!" "Even if the old man is not here, I believe I will win! Don't worry, if I see Yang Dayan, I will go down!" Wei Rui smiled, but still stood on the watchtower.It's just that he didn't notice that Pan Baozhu, Yang Dayan's wife, was also at the forefront. She shot Wei Rui with an arrow from her horse. Pan Baozhu's arrow pierced Wei Ruiru's right sleeve.Due to the distance, the arrow did not pass through the civilian clothes, but landed after a shallow stab, which caused Liang Jun to panic. "Father! Please go down!" Wei An hugged the old father's waist, ready to forcefully take him down, but Wei Rui didn't even turn his head, and hit the four boys on the head with a bamboo stick, Wei An had to obediently let go. "The era of the old man is over! Look over there!" Wei An turned his head to look at the ground, not knowing when the Wei army had collapsed.The horse riding team like white clouds drove west and east in the Wei army's formation.Torn apart its formation, it was Chen Qingzhi's white-robed team. "So I know this! Both the man and the horse are white. It seems that he is really a noble son from the south of the Yangtze River!" Pan Baozhu said with a smile that her beauty turned into coquettish when she smiled.But Li Chong held a different counterargument: "It's really conspicuous, but people who only pay attention to appearance must have little strength!" "No! That's not the case!" Pan Baozhu stopped laughing and shook her head: "This enemy general surnamed Chen is not easy to mess with! You see, the place where the white horse team is heading will definitely cause chaos on our side, won't it?" "……indeed." "Continuing will only cause more wounds, so go back to camp!" The 50,000 Wei army decided to return to the camp under the confrontation of the 300 white robes.And Yang Dayan, who came from the north bank to observe the battle situation, heard the singing of his own side: He said: "No matter what kind of famous general there is no way to make a move, no matter how tens of thousands or tens of thousands of troops, you must avoid the white-robed team!" "It is not pleasant to praise the enemy!" Yang Dayan smiled wryly.For this enemy army with white horses and white robes, Wei Jun felt fearful.It's okay if you just sing, but after hearing that the two generals Xiao Baoyin and Xi Kangsheng can't win, it's only natural to be afraid, after all, neither of these two are incompetent commanders. "Although it's a little late to say now, the enemy this time is not easy, and you can't be careless just because you have a large number of people!" Yang Dayan, who walked back to the north bank on the pontoon bridge, said this to his wife.Pan Baozhu nodded, just kept laughing: "I really want to take a closer look at that commander, maybe he's a handsome man!" "So you like handsome men too!" "Oh! Isn't that true for all women?" The gloomy winter sun in the upper reaches of the Huaihe River reflects the fierce general and his wife of the Northern Dynasty. New Year's Eve!This is the sixth year of Liang's Tianjian and the fourth year of Wei's Zhengshi, that is, AD 507. "Zhongli will fall within eighty days!" King Zhongshan's goal was not achieved. Chang Sheng's self-esteem was hurt by this. King Zhongshan was not in a good mood. After formally completing the New Year's ceremony and giving the whole army water and wine, he returned to his tent. The same is true for Liang Jun's side. After confirming that there will be no battle on January 1st, everyone is not living a leisurely day like being on the battlefield.However, Zhu Yingtai was still looking in the direction of Zhongli, looking for the trace of Liang Shanbo, just like every day. On this day, a guest came to Chen Qingzhi's place.As Wang Maozhi's emissary from Jiankang, he came here to deliver gifts such as wine and tea for the white robe team. "We have gone through several actual battles, and there is not even a single person killed in battle. This reason alone is worthy of everyone's congratulations!" The person who said this was a young man of the same age as Chen Qingzhi, and he should be a civil servant by his appearance.After greeting each other, he spoke his name: "My surname is Ma, my first name is Buddha Nian, and my character is Wencai! From Jiangzhou." "Oh, Jiangzhou!" Although it is a land that has never been to, but because it is Zhu Yingtai's hometown, Chen Qingzhi also feels very cordial.After distributing the wine to the soldiers, Chen Qingzhi called Ma Buddha to recite in his tent.After the two sides sat down to toast, the two started a dialogue: "Do you know the Zhu family in Jiangzhou?" This sentence made Ma Fonian, who was holding the cup, stop, and he looked at the young General Wuwei with a puzzled expression: "There are more than one family with the surname Zhu... May I ask which one is the Zhu family?" "It should be a fairly large house. Uh... I remember the owner's name is..." Zhu Yingtai should have heard this from Zhu Yingtai, but she couldn't remember it for a while. "By the way, it should be called Dagong Zhu! There should be only one famous family like this in Jiangzhou, right?" "This... this... this... Xiaguan has a marriage contract with Yingtai, the eldest daughter of this family..." Ma Funian smiled.Although he said he was smiling, his voice was sparse and his expression was strange.This time it was Chen Qingzhi's turn to stop, his mind was full of sparks, and he looked at Zhu Yingtai's fiancé seriously: "Oh, is it? So when is the wedding day worth celebrating?" "No, this..." Ma Fonian replied after thinking for a while: "It's a shame to say it, because the bride has run away." "Ran away!" "It's really unlucky... Xiaguan hasn't even seen the bride yet!" Thinking about it, this is really not Ma Fonian's fault. He just entered into a marriage contract with Miss Zhu's family according to his father's order, and it did not violate the laws, customs, and common sense of this era.And if the fiancé escapes, the perpetrator will be criticized by everyone, so, from my own point of view, he means "I am really a victim!". However, Chen Qingzhi was of course on Zhu Yingtai's side, and he hoped that Zhu Yingtai would be happy.Although Cao Jingzong made fun of him, he was willing to do whatever he could for Zhu Yingtai. "You probably don't want to be hated! That's a flower you can't pick!" It seems that Cao Jingzong's voice came from somewhere.And of course this is an auditory hallucination, Chen Qingzhi shook his head, and said again: "Actually, Ms. Zhu's Yingtai is my friend!" "Ah! Friends?" Ma Fonian's eyes were wide open. "Well! We met last year." If Ma Fo-nian continued to stay in the formation, he might meet Zhu Yingtai, so Chen Qingzhi wanted to take advantage of him, but this might not be the best way. "If you do harm to Miss Zhu, it will not be that simple! Of course, this is based on the position of a friend." Beads of sweat ooze from Ma Fonian's forehead: "You said things won't be that simple, so what are you going to do?" "Oh, I can kill you and treat it as what Wei Jun did." Since the expression on his face seemed a bit frivolous, Ma Fo-nian took some time to understand the matter, but when he understood, his expression immediately changed, and he almost fell from his sitting position. "This, this is too much..." Chen Qingzhi just filled his glass with wine. "Where is it too much?" "Isn't it too much to kill innocent people?" Chen Qingzhi picked up the cup and sighed: "Then, how many innocent Wei soldiers have been killed so far, and we have also caused casualties on our side. Isn't this even more extreme? In comparison, what's the big deal about killing someone to save a friend?" This is really unreasonable!Chen Qingzhi smiled strangely. It should be killed with a knife!Ma Fonian's neck was drenched with cold sweat.However, Chen Qingzhi's tricks were not enough to kill him with a single blow. Ma Fonian didn't know this. He thought that such a young person could become a general because he had great martial arts.What Ma Fonian knew was that this person was very serious! Ma Fo-nian replied: "I'm still very stingy with my life! Besides, what kind of judgment will I get when I chase after the fleeing bride? It's just that I will be laughed at. Therefore, I don't intend to chase her." "Really?" "real." "That's great! It's for everyone too, thank you for your determination." Chen Qingzhi was very happy.If Ma Fonian really thought so, then Zhu Yingtai wouldn't need to run away from marriage anymore. On this day, when the sun was setting, Cao Jingzong led five thousand soldiers and horses to cross to the north bank of Huaihe River by boat. The next day, that is, the second day of the first lunar month. When Li You, a general of the Wei army, was patrolling the banks of the Huaihe River, he was suddenly attacked by Liang Jun, who was believed to be only on the south bank of the Huaihe River.Li You's troops were disrupted by Cao Jingzong's troops, and when they were about to order to fight, the two sides had already entered a state of conflict between swords and swords, and guns and guns. Amidst the blood spurting and howling, although Li You wanted to command his subordinates, an enemy general wielding a long knife came wordlessly. After crossing, Li You's head was beheaded Falling, just one knife, simply, this is Cao Jingzong. Half of the Wei army was killed, and half fled eastward.However, after a while, the Wei soldiers who were supposed to escape turned around and turned back, and the number became ten times larger.The leading military flag is a big character "Yang" embroidered with white thread on a black background. When he knew that Yang Dayan was coming, Liang Jun's trembling was transmitted, and he changed his formation again under Cao Jingzong's instructions.From Yang Dayan's point of view, there was a strange man standing at the head of the enemy army. He didn't wear a helmet and his hair was let loose.After the giant man stood up the iron bar on the ground, he saluted Yang Dayan and shouted loudly: "Meet Your Excellency Yang, General Pingdong of Wei. My name is Zhao Cao. I hope to bet my reputation to fight with you!" "I'll ask you again, have you ever heard of Yang Dayan's name?" "of course!" "In that case, do you still want to fight me one-on-one?" "In this way, there will be no regrets in dying!" Yang Dayan laughed and said: "What a lovely person! Okay, let me be your opponent, and everyone is not allowed to shoot!" After raising the grown-up battle axe, Yang Dayan rushed forward with the force of the earth's roar, and the battle-axe turned into a waterfall of light and covered Zhao Cao's head. And in the next moment, with a blunt sound, the battle ax actually bounced back! The two armies watching the battle between the two sides exclaimed in amazement.Flicking back Yang Dayan's battle ax was a scene that everyone had never seen before.For example, during the Battle of Henan City, Liang Jun's Wang Maoguang had already worked very hard to avoid Yang Dayan's tomahawk, and it was impossible to resist directly. The black horse followed Zhao Cao's momentum and rushed past Zhao Cao. After dozens of steps, Yang Dayan turned around the horse's head. "There are indeed many talents in the Southern Dynasty!" Even though he said this, his wheels were full of fire, and then rushed forward again. The tomahawk fell, and the iron rod was lifted up. The fierce battle between the two was accompanied by thunder, and a blue flame was emitted.The black horse passed by Zhao Cao again, and Yang Dayan turned his horse's head back again. In the third round of fierce attack, Zhao Cao's iron rod slammed into Yang Dayan's face forcefully, and Yang Dayan bounced back the blow.The tomahawk turned in the air and slashed towards Zhao Cao's neck, and Zhao Cao also blocked it. Ten rounds, twenty rounds, thirty rounds... Under the silent eyes of the two armies, the fierce battle continued.Yang Dayan's wife, Pan Baozhu, arrived with Baiqi around at this time, and she also watched the fight to death between the two seriously. "This is really a spectacle, don't underestimate the southern thief!" Pan Baozhu never thought that there would be someone in the Liang army who could fight Yang Dayan for more than ten rounds!No!Even Wei Jun has no one like this! "Although I really want to watch it again, we have to go to the king of Zhongshan to hear what kind of decree the envoy from Luoyang has brought, so we have no choice but to ring the gong and retreat!" Under Pan Baozhu's order, Wei Jun returned to himself.When the gong for retreat sounded, Yang Dayan had no choice but to shrug his shoulders. He wanted to put away the tomahawk, but he turned around and picked it up again, and struck Zhao Cao with a strong flash.Zhao Cao, who used the iron rod to move next, lost his posture and fell to the ground. “We will see you again!” Yang Dayan walked in the direction of Wei Jun, leaving only wild laughter.Facing the intact Wei army, they couldn't even find a gap in the pursuit. Although Zhao Cao wanted to return to his side, he sat on the ground and couldn't get up.His giant body was covered with sweat, and he was too excited to speak.Someone handed him a bamboo water tube in front of him, and he drank it all in one gulp without even being able to say thank you, and then drank the second tube in the same way.It was only when the young soldier handed out the third water canister that Zhao Cao noticed him. He saluted and said: "Miss Zhu, I'm really sorry!" This young soldier is Zhu Yingtai in men's clothing. "You're doing great, Zhao!" It was Cao Jingzong who approached appreciatively.Although he didn't know the reason for Yang Dayan's retreat, he had bought a lot of time.Cao Jingzong's purpose was to build a fortress on the north bank and cut off the supply line of the Wei army, so before Yang Dayan attacked again, he had to hurry up. Zhu Yingtai asked Zhao Cao: "What about tomorrow?" "Of course we still have to fight Yang Dayan!" "As rude as it is, I don't think you're going to win." For Zhu Yingtai's words, Zhao Cao was not angry.He nodded: "It is indeed impossible to win! In today's battle, the official is so exhausted that he can't even stand up!" On the other hand, Yang Dayan still has plenty of strength, which is very clear as an enemy. "But we still have to fight!" Zhu Yingtai was silent. Zhao Cao once said to Cao Jingzong before, "I hope General Chen and Ms. Zhu can be happy!" However, just like Cao Jingzong's answer, life cannot be as one wishes.Zhao Cao is indeed very naive. If Zhu Yingtai and Liang Shanbo are happy, wouldn't Chen Qingzhi be alone? "The road of love cannot be solved even by gods and Buddhas!" Although Zhao Cao thought so, she didn't meet Yang Dayan the next day, so she couldn't reproduce the death fight of the day before.The imperial envoy from Luoyang, the infantry school lieutenant Fan Shao, suggested to retreat after inspecting the battle situation. King Zhongshan and Yang Dayan had to argue fiercely with him, so they could not command the military. This is really Liang Jun's luck.Of course, the engineering capabilities of the Liang Army, which can build a large camp overnight, are also extremely high. They built a small but quite strong fort with earth, rocks and wood, and then diverted the water of the Huaihe River to flood the surrounding area and turn it into a swamp.Cao Jingzong jokingly called this fort "Zhaocao City"! When "Zhao Caocheng" began to function, the supply route of the Wei army was blocked by the Liang army. Zhao Cao, who attacked, brought back the food and horses of the Wei army, and kept the damage to a minimum. "Escape! This is good for us!" As he spoke, he raised the prepared boulder to his head and began to throw it underground.Under the strange vibration, the boulder fell into the soil, and Wei Bing fell on all fours.Originally, the people who delivered the food were not elites, so they fled amidst the screams, so that Zhao Cao could get the food without anyone being killed or injured.The so-called food is not just grains, but also live cattle, sheep, pigs and chickens, etc., filling the interior of Zhaocao City with noises that seem incompatible with the battlefield.About ten days later, Cao Jingzong and Zhao Cao returned to the south bank after leaving behind a thousand guards, and of course Zhu Yingtai was with them. After King Zhongshan finally sent the wordy emissary back to Luoyang, he was able to put his mind back on the military. He thought it was time to change the attack method on Zhongli City! The question is, how did Zhong Licheng communicate with the reinforcements?In this era, there is only one way to release secret envoys.Zhang Jiuling in the Tang Dynasty came up with a good way to use carrier pigeons, but that was two hundred years later. "I believe that Zhongli City must not know that the reinforcements have arrived!" King Zhongshan was certain because he was also convinced that his encirclement of Zhongli City was perfect.And it's true. "In this way, the reinforcements will send envoys for the decisive battle to the city to obtain a strategy that echoes both inside and outside. If any suspicious person approaches Zhongli City in the middle of the night, don't let him go!" As a result, Wei Jun's vigilance on Zhongli's three sides became stricter: the lights at night came and went along the city wall, just like turning the city into a prison of flames. There is no shortage of food and weapons in Zhongli City, but the generals and soldiers, who are less than 3,000 strong, are exhausted physically and mentally.It has been nearly a hundred days since the city was besieged. Unlike the enemies with infinite resilience, there is no manpower in the city to replace them.Although this was expected, and the non-combatants had completely retreated, it was also approaching the limit. One night, Chang Yizhi stood on the west side of the city wall and looked at the ground, the torches were like the red eyes of monsters coveting the city. Suddenly, Chang Yizhi's ears perked up, and the flute sounded in the early spring night sky. The elegant tune made Chang Yizhi stunned, only to realize that someone approached and saluted. "Did you call me? Envoy!" The person who came was Liang Shanbo, the secretary. "Did you hear that flute?" "Yes! It's the flute sound of King Zhongshan!" "It's really scary!" Chang Yizhi looked into the Wei army formation. "The royal family of the Northern Dynasties was originally from the barbarians, and they thought they were not related to elegance, but now I look like a farmer without elegance!" A muffled laugh flowed. "The mouth that plays the beautiful jade flute at night gives the order to kill in the morning, and both of them are kings of Zhongshan. By the way, Shanbo!" "Yes, envoy!" "Even if I lose to the King of Zhongshan, I think my name will be passed on to future generations. Of course, I don't want to be defeated! Besides, I believe that our reinforcements should have arrived nearby, so we must recruit brave men. Serving as an envoy..." Chang Yizhi turned to Liang Shanbo, checking his opponent's expression in the dark. "I didn't expect that you, a civil servant, would volunteer. If you were not by my side, it would be a trouble to me, so I want to ask you why you volunteered." "I have a woman in my heart..." Probably as expected, Liang Shanbo replied immediately: "Xiaguan was engaged to the woman in private, but was opposed by her parents, so he was kicked out. Xiaguan was very desperate at the time, and considered death, but later figured it out, and joined the envoy's command. gone." Chang Yizhi nodded slowly: "If you can make some achievements in the world, then maybe the engagement will be recognized!" "Yes!" Liang Shanbo said in a firm tone: "It really made you laugh, envoy!" "Who would laugh at such a thing?" Chang Yizhi replied seriously: "I was just like you twenty years ago!" When the startled Liang Shanbo looked at the Shangguan's face, Chang Yizhi shrugged the helmet with his hand: "I believe you will also feel pain for this! In this world, it is not easy for someone from a poor family to want Rongda. In order to get the approval of the stubborn parent of the other party, I chose the way of a warrior. To be precise, There should be no other way!" "This subordinate doesn't know..." "So of course it is impossible for me to laugh at you! I know very well that a man with admiration will double his strength, but this is not the skill of your civil servant, you should think again!" However, Liang Shanbo replied resolutely: "If you don't allow me, I will go out of town anyway, so please forgive me!" "... Got it, let's go!" Chang Yizhi put his hand on Liang Shanbo's shoulder. In this way, Liang Shanbo escaped from Zhongli City the next night, preparing to break through the encirclement of the Wei army and contact the reinforcements. It is impossible to know the exact date of the first month of the sixth year of Tianjian, but it is a very important night under the wonderful karma.Because Liang's reinforcements also sent envoys on the same night to obtain contact with Zhongli City.Although this is an unknown soldier, his name has been recorded in official history because of his mission. His name is Yan Wenda. Liang Shanbo did not possess the documents, this was to prevent them from being used as a trap if they fell into the hands of the Wei army. The commotion at the east gate of Zhongli City occurred during the middle of the night (from eleven o'clock in the afternoon to one o'clock in the middle of the night).After the city gate was opened, about 500 city soldiers holding Songming rushed out, and the Wei army killed them immediately.After a while of yelling, Liang Jun immediately took it back.It's just slapstick!Wei Jun had already seen it through.Then, the person who comes out should be able to get out of the opposite side of Ximen!However, under heavy vigilance, no one appeared.But at this moment, Liang Shanbo had escaped from the city. He lowered the bamboo raft from the northern city wall with a large cable and directly reached the surface of the Huaihe River.This small raft made of bamboo was just enough for three people. When two soldiers were paddling the raft, Liang Shanbo himself supported himself with bamboo sticks.They went down the dark water, that is, to the east.Taking the current to the east, hoping to meet Liang Jun's navy, this is Liang Shanbo's idea. "Wei Jun doesn't use water as a passage, at most it's just a barrier. This gap should be usable!" Under such thoughts, Liang Shanbo leaned down on the raft and looked at the two banks, and couldn't help but gasp.At night, tens of thousands of torches were lit by the Wei army camps on both sides of the Huaihe River, which looked like the Great Wall of flames; the flames reflected on the water surface, like huge gemstones clustered and swayed in the river.Although this is a beautiful sight, there is no time to appreciate it.If it is too close to the shore, it will be illuminated by the light of the torch on the shore, and it will be discovered by Wei Jun. If you want to avoid the light of the torch, you have to go to the middle of the river.Thinking this way, Liang Shanbo was about to guide the direction of the bamboo raft, when the soldiers in front suddenly let out a mournful cry, and a dark boat appeared in front of him. There was no time to dodge, the two collided, the small bamboo raft capsized immediately, and Liang Shanbo fell into the water. This is the boat used by the Wei army to transport grain from the north bank to the south bank.Because of Zhao Caocheng, the Wei army's supply route was restricted, and one of the Wei army's confrontation strategies was to use boats.Why use the night?That's because Wei Jun has no confidence in his navy.And now this boat happened to overturn Liang Shanbo's bamboo raft. Liang Shanbo sank into the water for a while, and after kicking the water vigorously to float up, he just swam towards the shore in a daze.When I finally stepped on the shore and adjusted my breathing, I saw dozens of pine trees approaching. "Don't let him escape! Catch him!" The sound of smashing hit Liang Shanbo's ears like a whip that could be seen.Liang Shanbo lowered his body and ran nine steps among the reeds. At the tenth step, his right foot suddenly hurt. He quickly covered his mouth with his hands, but a short cry had already been made.Song Ming approached quickly, and amidst the screams, Liang Shanbo's body was grabbed by five or six wrists. Almost at the same time, Yan Wenda and other five secret envoys approached the west side of Zhongli City.They put on the armor stripped from the corpses of the enemy soldiers and disguised themselves as Wei soldiers. When they waited for an opportunity among the reeds, they noticed the chaos. "What seems to have happened in Wei Jun's camp?" This is the chaos caused by Liang Shanbo's arrest.Although Yan Wenda and the others didn't know the reason, they took advantage of this situation. "The enemy attacked at night! They came by boat!" They shouted and jumped from the reeds and threw stones to cause a commotion.Due to sufficient signs, Wei Jun gradually checked the shore.In the midst of the chaos, Yan Wenda and the others arrived at the west gate of Zhongli City.After they yelled to open the door, they were led into the city. Since Yan Wenda and others entered the city, the city learned that 200,000 reinforcements had arrived from ten miles away, and the morale in Zhongli City suddenly rose, just like the record "in the city, a hundred times more courageous!". However, the life and death of Liang Shanbo who escaped from the city is still unclear, and the Wei army's siege of Zhongli City is still unabated. The captured Liang Shanbo was bound by chains, and was led into a huge tent in the ranks of Song Ming.On the felt covering the floor, sat three generals.At this time, the tooth general who led Liang Shanbo spoke: "Kneel down quickly! This is the Imperial Palace of His Highness King Zhongshan!" Then, he also said the names of the two generals on the left and right.Liang Shanbo's breathing almost stopped, and his heart was pounding! "...The one on the front is Zhongshan Wang Yuanying, General Zhengdong. The one on the right is Xiao Baoyin, General Zhendong, and the one on the left is General Yang Dayan, Pingdong!" Trembling was going on all over his body, Liang Shanbo almost couldn't stand up.The majesty of King Zhongshan, the majestic force of Yang Dayan, and the vigor of Xiao Baoyin are all enough to overwhelm Liang Shanbo. "Damn it, you still don't kneel down!" Yajiang pressed Liang Shanbo's head hard. Among the three, Xiao Baoyin spoke.He originally came from the Southern Dynasty, so he should be the one who can communicate the most. "If you don't want to kneel down, that's okay, just report your name first! Or will it be embarrassing if your name is known?" Of course not! "My surname is Liang, and my courtesy name is Shanbo." "Official?" "Northern Xuzhou Governor's Records Room." "Is the governor of North Xuzhou referring to Chang Yizhi?" "That's right." "Then what is your purpose for escaping from the city in the dark night?" Liang Shanbo's mouth was tightly shut.Xiao Baoyin stood up from his seat, and slowly came to the front of Liang Shanbo, his eyes were full of malicious light. "The thing I don't like the most is your surname! Although I know it's not your fault, I want the word Liang to disappear on the ground! So for your own good, you'd better answer my question properly!" "Bao Yin's ambition is kept in Xuefu." It is written in the "Book of Wei". "Xue Fu" refers to the meaning of revenge and revenge.King Zhongshan and Yang Dayan had no personal hatred for the enemy Liang, but Xiao Baoyin was different. For him, Liang was the object of revenge.Liang Shanbo also knew about this.The invisible cold sword pierced Liang Shanbo's back.He spoke.Although the voice trembled, what he said was words that surprised even himself: "Let me boldly ask, why is this nobleman from the Southern Dynasty in such a place?" "Why? What would someone like you know!" In an instant, Xiao Baoyin was enveloped by excited emotions: "Do you know the pain when the country was robbed and all brothers were killed at the age of seventeen? A person who was born and raised in the palace had to hide in the mountains and forests, gnaw on weeds, and escape to a foreign country with his face covered in mud and water. ...Do you know this pain and anger?" Regarding the sudden change of Xiao Baoyin's posture, Zhongshan Wang and Yang Dayan just cast a speechless gaze. "Didn't your father kill twenty-nine members of his own family to sit on the throne, and there are three-year-old children among them..." Liang Shanbo impeached fiercely: "Your brother Donghunhou, after killing the pregnant woman and the fetus, he said, 'It's so interesting!'! Is this the behavior of a man who should be born?" "Shut up!" 萧宝寅紧握的拳头击向梁山伯的脸颊，然而梁山伯并没有闭嘴： “齐是个被诅咒的王朝，是不可能再兴的！就算是重新建立起来，又有谁会支持呢？” “闭嘴！闭嘴！”萧宝寅的手握向剑柄： “我要把你那多嘴的舌头给斩下来，让你到地下之后，可以拜谒我的父兄，治你杂言之罪！” 萧宝寅的手并没有动作，他的右手为杨大眼所按住，车轮眼的精光强盛，但声音却很沉静： “这个人的身上带着枷锁，而且也没有武器，你既然是萧镇东这样的大人物，对无抵抗力的人施加暴力似乎不大好吧！” 萧宝寅的脸色发白，杨大眼就这样抓着他的手回到了中山王之前。中山王也站了起来，三人低声商量着，把梁山伯和牙将留在帐内就步了出去。当梁山伯还在一脸茫然时，另一名新的将军走了进来叫牙将出去。从声音听出是一名女性时，梁山伯更是吃惊。 “喔！这不正是一名美男子吗？”女将军笑道，“听闻江南多美女，没想到男人也不错！让我好好看看你的脸吧！” 梁山伯沉默着。他无法测知女将军的真意，只有睁大眼望着对手的表情。
