Chapter 8 1. Reinforcements drop from heaven

In the second year of Jingchu in the Great Wei Dynasty.This July in Liaodong is destined to be a strange and ominous month.Since the first day of July, there have been lightning, thunder and torrential rain every day from morning to night!The torrential rain poured down from mid-air, like thousands of rain arrows shot down by God, and like a giant waterfall rushing down from the Tianhe River breaking its embankment. There was a vast expanse of whiteness everywhere, and the trees on the ground fell down. House collapsed! "What a powerful Lin Yu!" Sima Liangji, the captain of Zhengliao Guard Army and Taiwei's Army, said to Sima Yi, who was standing by the window of the tent and looking out, "We are in Guanzhong. No matter how violent the torrential rain fell, it was not as severe as the rain on their Liaodong side! The water on this plain is so deep that it has completely submerged to Liang's waist and crotch..."

Sima Yi didn't answer, but silently withdrew his gaze and glanced at his body.Isn't it because he was standing on the table now that he was saved from the embarrassment of being stuck in a muddy puddle?On the ground inside the big tent, three or four feet of rainwater had already accumulated. Once a person stood inside, it was as if his lower body had been soaked in a large water tank. "Master Taiwei! Master Taiwei!" Youzhou Biejia and Pei Qian's cousin Pei Jing rushed in through the stagnant water, shouting, "It's raining too much!" Big! Our military camp is set up in this depression, and there is mud and water overflowing everywhere. It is really inconvenient for the brothers to run around, and please issue an order to move everyone to the top of the hillside behind!"

"Pei Jun! This is impossible!" Sima Yi squatted down on the table and replied to him, "Our army is in a depression, which is very inconvenient compared with the hills and ridges behind, but it is a last resort. And for this. This place is the main throat for the soldiers and horses of Xiangping City to enter and retreat! If we withdraw our camp here, in case this place is stolen and occupied by puppet Yan troops, the overall situation of attacking and defending host and guest will be very easy. It will be extremely difficult to get back! Therefore, I would like to ask General Pei to go down and give more guidance on his behalf, and advise everyone to be patient for a few more days. After the weather clears and the rain stops, we will build a fortress and surround us on all sides. Xiangping City has been captured!"

Hearing this, Pei Jing stomped his feet bitterly in the puddle of rainwater, and immediately kicked mud and water: "Master Taiwei, you don't know that when we were building camps and fences around the outer wall of Xiangping City in the heavy rain these days, Those pseudo-Yan soldiers standing on the top of the wall have been laughing at us for being stupid and stupid soil turtles, who only know how to roll and toss in the muddy water, and don't even know how to find a place to hide from such a heavy rain..." Sima Yi slowly raised his gaze, looked towards the side wall of the tent, and said sternly: "That's okay. Let these idiots laugh by themselves! Let's see who will have the last laugh!"

Pei Jing followed his gaze from below, and saw two large scrolls hanging on the side wall, on which were written two paragraphs of inscriptions: "Ju'an, take care to prevent problems before they happen" and "Process changes Then persevere and forbearance to achieve success in accumulation"!Although he came halfway to support Sima Yi's Youzhou "guest army" general, he has been familiar with Sima Yi's temper in the past few months. Seeing that he spoke so coldly and firmly today, he had to keep his mouth shut Advise again. Sima Yi still stared at the two inscriptions, and said coldly: "In ancient times, those who make good use of soldiers take discipline as their origin, and take the heart of one person as the heart of all. Serving thousands of troops is like serving one man. Orders and prohibitions should be answered like ringing, where one's heart comes, soldiers will arrive, it is still like a deep pool, but it moves like a waterfall, it advances like wind and retreats like lightning, Mount Tai is not afraid when it is overwhelmed, it is burned by flames, but it is not pity, bravely rushing into Longtan You are not timid, so you can be invincible and invincible! I want to take the lead and take the lead in building such an iron team!"

As he spoke, he raised his breath and jumped down to the ground, half of his body was submerged in the rainwater puddle: "From now on, I will walk together with all the soldiers in this waist-deep muddy water, Suffering together! Liang Ji—you pass on the order, if anyone in the army dares to speak falsely about moving camps, he will be punished without mercy!" After Liang Ji went out of the account to send an order, Sima Yi called Lang Yusong, the secretary of the shogunate, and asked himself standing in the muddy water: "Mr. Yu, now I am holding troops under Jiancheng, stationed in the muddy rain and mud. , but you want to issue a book of shooting to proclaim the principles of rebellion, misfortune and fortune to the soldiers and subjects in Xiangping City, what do you think?"

Yu Song also stood in the puddle, contemplating for a moment with frowned eyebrows, then bowed his body and answered: "To the Taiwei, you should be polite first and then fight, teach first and then punish. This move is really what the teacher of the king should do, and it should be possible." Sima Yi nodded slightly, stroked his beard with his hands, and ordered: "Then you immediately draw up a draft of a call to arms and submit it to me!" "To be honest, Mr. Taiwei, Yu has also thought about this matter before, and has already written the belly draft of this essay." A faint smile floated on Yu Song's face, and said politely, "Now Yu is Recite it, please listen to it carefully, how about it?"

"Oh? So you have already written the draft of this call to arms? It's rare! It's rare!" Sima Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, and glanced at him with the eyes between his eyes, "Then, you can read it to me. Listen to it!" "Yes!" Hearing this, Yu Song hurriedly lifted his collar, straightened his robe, straightened his body, and recited: Tell Liaodong, Xuantu and other generals, officials and people: The rebel Gongsun Yuanshi was favored by the emperor of the country, and he originally enjoyed the honor of the Duke and the title of Shangqing.The Great Wei treated him very kindly and hoped that he could be changed. Unexpectedly, this thief was greedy for profit and his nature was like a scorpion. He imprisoned his uncle in order to seize the false throne, secretly tied Sun Quan in order to seek a false name, betrayed his favor and betrayed his master, and was extremely evil. , to deceive you and so on and want to commit a great crime together.

According to various classics: In a city of ten houses, there is still loyalty and trustworthiness, which traps the king in evil, as written in "Spring and Autumn".Now Liaodong and Xuantu are serving the state court, and they are green and purple, numbering in the thousands, wearing crowns and dangling tassels, and helping the city and the wild. Has there ever been any words of rectification and charity?Whose fault is it that the tortoise and jade are destroyed by the scorpion, and the tiger's mouth is from the scorpion?The country is really ashamed of the monarchs, scholars and bureaucrats!In the past, Hutu said: "Father teaches his son two, why should he serve the king? The policy name is entrusted with quality, and the second is to avoid it." Now it is Ah Shun's evil conspiracy, coercion, treachery and temptation. It is not only the father and brother's teachings that are unknown, but the behavior of the children is not good. That's all?If the seedlings are polluted and the fields are damaged, and the wind and fire burn, all the grasses and grasses will be burned, how can An Neng be different?What is beneficial is the disadvantage of righteousness, and what is expensive is what is not worthy of righteousness. This is the name of self-loathing the dwelling of peace and happiness, seeking disaster of peril, self-deprecating loyalty and chastity, conceit and betrayal, how despicable it is!The strengths of barbarians, such as Mo Huba, are like loving rituals, and it is hard to embarrass people with this matter!Today's loyal ministers and generals are salty and angry that Liaodong has brought them over and over again.Today, His Majesty is the father and mother of the world, thinking of the new order of the world and the just peace of the Western captives, he does not want to work and fight, and travels far away in Dachuan, which is as expensive as that. hint.If the thighs and arms are loyal and good, and those who can be efficient and trustworthy to assist the ruler of the time, and those who fight against evil and make great achievements, are blessed.If you are afraid of self-distrust, you have been polluted by evil and rebels, and you dare not speak up, you will cherish Yiwei forever!The rest of those who have lost their way and found their way back after communicating with rebels will be forgiven and eliminated, and the past will be forgotten, and a new beginning will be made with them.

Sima Yi listened quietly with half-closed eyes, and then praised: "Very good! Very good! Yu Jun's essay can be described as clear and clear, with a clear heart! It seems that your talent is the closest to official documents. The written memorandum and letter of advice has its own merits, and it will surely make extraordinary achievements in the future—" He opened his eyes, and a cold light, as bright as a snow blade, flashed across his eyes. "However, in my opinion, you can add a sentence at the end of this call to arms, 'If there is a person who is determined to go his own way and refuses to return, the day when the city is destroyed is the time for the clan to punish, so don't say that the country's government said it too early. Go!'"

When Yu Song heard the words, his heart was shocked, and he hurriedly replied: "Yes! Yu will add this sentence when he writes it later." Sima Yi stared at him, and said slowly: "Mr. Yu, since you have already prepared a draft in your heart, it shows that you are also good at hiding things in your body and preparing for changes at the right time. This book is not bad." If you don’t ask, then you don’t answer; if you don’t ask, you don’t answer.” This is also a well-regulated way for a gentleman to live in the world. But under my command, Sima Yi, I never advocate superficial prose. In the future, it would be great if we were more active in planning in front of this seat and expressing our feelings directly!" Yu Song heard Sima Yi's criticism of his half-hidden and half-swallowed behavior, and his cheeks blushed, revealing his embarrassment: "Your Majesty's teaching is right, Yu has taken it from the bottom of his heart." "It's good to know how to be taught." Sima Yi waved his hand, and asked him to step back.As soon as Yu Song left, he saw the curtain of the tent door lifted, and a loud voice like a bronze bell came to his face: "Taiwei Sima, you camped and besieged the city in the muddy rain. You really can't bear it!" Sima Yi and Pei Jing looked over in response, and saw that the person who came was a Xianbei strong man with a figure as majestic as a mountain, with long dark hair hanging down his shoulders, yellowish beard slanted upturned, and round and big eyes like copper bells. The waist is straight as if it is loose, and the whole person's gestures overflow with arrogance.Behind him was a Xianbei young man. Although he was not very tall, he was born with a thick neck and a thick back, and his face was cast like iron. "The Great Chief Mo Huba is here - I am really far away to welcome you!" Sima Yi laughed, regardless of the waist-deep water in the tent, he stepped forward to greet him. The strong Xianbei man and the young Xianbei behind him covered his left chest with both hands, and bowed deeply towards Sima Yi: "Taiwei Sima, Mo Huba is here to greet you!" Sima Yi stretched out his hands to help them both up, and said with a smile on his face: "Excuse me! Excuse me! Mo Hujun and I are from the same family, why should you be so polite?" It turned out that this Mo Huba was the great chief of the Xianbei Hu tribe in western Liaoning, and also a direct disciple of Sima Yi's master Xuantongzi Guan Ning when he lived in seclusion on the banks of the Liao River.Therefore, speaking of it, he is naturally Sima Yi's fellow apprentice.This time during the Northern Expedition to Liaodong, Sima Yi specially sent someone to invite Mo Huba. He caught the introduction letter written by Mr. Guan Ning himself, and immediately recruited him into his account, serving as the vanguard general of Pingliao.After all, the imperial court only allocated 40,000 troops to Sima Yi, while Gongsun Yuan had more than 100,000 troops. Therefore, Sima Yi absolutely had to rely on Mo Huba, a powerful local force. "I, Mo Huba, have always remembered the gift of honoring elders and respecting brothers taught by master, how dare I forget it?" Mo Huba bowed three times before standing up, "Senior brother Sima, you don't have to be humble!" Sima Yi didn't say anything more, turned around and pointed to the military topographic map of the whole territory of Liaodong hanging on the front wall of the military tent, his face straightened, and he asked seriously: "Mr. The meaning is to build a 200-mile company camp along the four sides of Xiangping City, encircle the city tightly, and catch turtles in an urn, do you think this plan is feasible?" "It's feasible, it's feasible," Mo Huba nodded thoughtfully and replied, "I'm just afraid that the rain will be too heavy, and brothers and sons can't stand soaking in the water. The last time when General Wuqiu Jian came to fight , that is, because they couldn't survive the heavy rain all day and all night, they had no choice but to withdraw their troops." "Alas... marching and fighting is no child's play. When facing hardships and dangers, no matter how difficult it is, you have to endure it, and no matter how difficult it is, you have to endure it!" Sima Yi stretched out his palm and patted his waist armor, and smiled deeply, "Look ——Isn't this seat also soaking in puddles all the time like frontline soldiers to handle official duties?" "Well... Brother Sima, you really can set an example and teach others. I really admire Mo Huba!" After all, Mo Huba was educated under Mr. Guan Ning, a generation of Confucianism, so it was quite awkward when he opened his mouth. The appearance of Wentong's Ci Shun is very different from those rough chiefs who don't know literary etiquette. !" Pei Jing heard that even the chief of the foreign guest army expressed his loyalty to Sima Yi in this way, secretly surprised in his heart, this Sima Taiwei is really amazing, even the Xianbei barbarian was taken under his command and he was so obedient ! Sima Yi had also heard Guan Ning's introduction, and knew that Mo Huba, the chief of Xianbei, had always admired Chinese etiquette and civilization, and had always admired Chinese utensils, regulations, and elegant demeanor.With a thought in his heart, he followed what Guan Ning had taught him before, and said with a smile: "That's right! Brother Mo Hu, I am hereby ordered by Master Guan Ning to give you something as a gift." As he spoke, he walked from the table He took a mahogany square box from above, gently opened it, and a dazzling golden light shot out immediately. "Oh! Isn't this the pure gold crown that Master Guan wore earlier?" Mo Huba looked at it, his eyes widened brightly! I saw that the whole body of the walking crown was shining with golden light, and the base was carved into a lifelike deer head. On the top of the deer head, there were seven thin and long horned branches stretching out to the left, top and right respectively. There are pieces of yellow gold leaves hanging from the root horn branches.Sima Yi held it in his hand, shook it lightly, and the breeze blew, the golden branches and leaves on the crown of that step would flicker non-stop, making people dazzled. Mo Huba had a deep smile on his face: "Okay, okay, okay..." "Come on, junior brother, let me put it on for you!" Sima Yi stepped forward, and Mo Huba knelt down to him in response.Sima Yi first carefully tied up his long hair, which was loose like a waterfall, and then carefully put on this pure gold walking crown, and then crossed a plum blossom silver hairpin from the bun to secure his crown firmly. freeze.Seeing that the crown was properly worn, Sima Yi let go of his hand, looked left and right, smiled and nodded in applause. After Mo Huba put on the pure gold walking crown, he stood up and walked around the tent step by step through the rain, as elated as a child who got his beloved baby.The bright and bright brow crown, shining brightly on his head between swaying and swaying, is really wonderful! "Okay! Master Guan Ning knows that you have always loved his pure gold crown, so I entrust it to you as a brother. Brother Mo Hu, please accept it!" Sima Yi caressed his black and slippery face. Beard, said with a smile. After hearing this, Mo Huba didn't care about the deep water in the tent, he knelt down with a "wow" and said, "Disciple sincerely thanks Master Guan Ning for the gift of the crown!" Sima Yi stepped forward and helped him up: "Master gave you the crown, and I also hope that you will be educated and reasonable, and you will become an upright and upright person among my great Wei Fanyi in the future! You must not disappoint the master's painstaking efforts." That's good!" "Yes! Yes! I will definitely remember Master's painstaking teachings and live up to Master's ardent expectations!" Mo Huba stood up straight with tears in his eyes, and looked at Sima Yi seriously, "Senior brother Sima, little brother!" Here is one more thing to ask for help—I, Mo Huba, have already devoted my heart to the Chinese civilization, so how about asking Brother Sima to give us a surname?" "Give the surname? Well... Since you have such sincerity, it is not appropriate for you to give it to me..." After hearing this, Sima Yi walked back and forth in the tent with his hands behind his back, before he murmured, "Remember, brother , Master Guan Ning once left you Mo Hu Clan with a piece of handwriting, which reads "Admiration for the virtue of the two appearances, and envy the beauty of the three lights." Brother, I took out two characters from these twelve characters and suggested that you The family changed their surname to 'Murong'!" "Murong? Admire the Jiade of Liangyi, envy the beautiful appearance of Sanguang? Murong..." Mo Huba repeated this brand-new surname for a long time, and finally stretched out his hand to slap his knee, and laughed, "Brother, you can change it Good! Great change! I, Mo Huba, have changed my surname to Murong from now on—my little brother will be called Murong Ba from now on!" As he said that, he turned around and patted the Xianbei youth on the shoulder, laughing loudly: "Mu Yan! My son who is as strong as Hai Dongqing—you will never use the vulgar surname Mo Hu again! Your name is Murong Muyan from now on! Why don't you hurry up and kneel down to thank your Uncle Sima!" "Don't be too polite! Don't be too polite!" Sima Yi hurriedly stepped forward to support Murong Muyan, and at the same time turned his head and said to Murong Ba, "Murong Junior Brother! You have already led the whole family to submit to me, Huanghuang Da. Wei, let's show your skills together with my brother, and take down this traitor Gongsun Yuan in one fell swoop! As long as you make military exploits, you must not think of the difference between Hua and Yi as a brother. I will write a personal letter and implore your majesty to seal it! I beg you to be the righteous king!" "Look at what you said, senior brother, your enemy is the enemy of my Murong Ba! It is the enemy of my entire Xianbei clan in western Liaoning! A scholar like you can treat me Murong Ba like a brother, I Murong Ba Why wouldn't Ba take out a heart to repay you?" Murong Ba helped up the pure gold step crown on the top, and with a solemn face, he said heartily, "If you have any orders, just say it! " In the resplendent Pseudo-Yan Palace in Xiangping City, the sound of the heavy rain hitting the roof and the ground outside could not cover up the sound of singing and dancing everywhere in the palace. Wearing a sable-tailed deerskin felt crown and a red silk robe, Gongsun Yuan sat on the Diaolong Throne with a big belly, holding a bronze ancient noble in his right hand, toasted all the officials under his seat, and said: "My dearest ministers! I... I respect you! No, no, no, let’s all come together to thank the heavens. The heavens have intentions, and the ancestors have spirits. God rains down to bless me, Dayan, who is invincible forever!" Before he finished speaking, Wang Jian, the prime minister of the fake Yan, smiled obsequiously, and said in a flattering way: "Your Majesty! God has treated my Yan very well! The last time Wuqiu Jian led 50,000 troops to invade, the result was At Xijinkou of Liaohe River, he was also drenched by a rain of gods, and fled in a panic after less than half a month. Sima Yi won't last long in our Xiangping city this time either!" Liu Fu, the pseudo-Yan censor, also stood up and echoed in unison: "Yes! Yes! Your Majesty! The divine rain is so heavy that those Wei thieves can't build up the earth mountain in the barracks outside the city. This morning, the veteran climbed up to the top of the southern city wall to see that every foot they built was washed away by the rainstorm! They are still foolishly doing useless work in the muddy rain!" Gongsun Yuan applauded again and again, and all the facial features on his face were crowded together with smiles.Looking at his master, Longyan Dayue, the servant Zhongwei Yan was not far behind, and smiled and flattered him: "Yes! Yes! Our Zhenguo great wizard Qu Nile said that this time the rain will fall for more than a month Even if those Wei thieves were not driven away by us under the city of Xiangping, they would definitely be washed away by the eight or nine feet of rainwater on the flat ground——My Dayan is really a blessing, and all the spirits will help!" "Good! Good! Good! Thank you for your auspicious words!" Gongsun Yuan was full of joy, and drank the fine wine in the bronze Fangjue. "I'm celebrating with all of you!" At this moment, Bei Yan, the general who conquered the South, and Yang Zuo, the general who Pinglu, came out with worry on their faces, and clasped their fists and said, "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, this Sima Yi's formation and deployment of troops is indeed full of treacherous changes. Like a god, it can be said that "looking at the front, suddenly at the back; looking at the left, suddenly at the right", it is really impossible to defend and attack! I have fought him at the mouth of Liaohe River, and I know how powerful he is. Now He has built hundreds of miles of earth and mountain companies around our city of Xiangping, and he has been urging the Wei soldiers to continue construction against wind and rain day and night. If his hundreds of miles of earth and mountains companies are encircled, the situation of our army will be worrying!" "This..." Gongsun Yuan's smile froze when he heard the words, he put down Fang Jue in his hand, and his expression became a little heavy. "Two generals—you worry too much!" Wei Yan secretly resented the two generals for ruining the happy and peaceful atmosphere in the field, and coldly refuted them, "This divine rain will continue to fall three times in a row. For more than ten days, this is the prophecy of Qu Nile, the great wizard of Zhenguo! How will Sima Yi and his shrimp soldiers and crabs survive? Didn't Wuqiu Jian also confidently declare at the beginning of the last time that he would fight with the gods in the rain? Did my Great Yan army persist to the end? In the end, he only lasted for twelve or three days before throwing away his armor and fleeing..." "Among the guards! No matter how powerful the divine rain is, there will be a day when the sun will rise and the clouds will harvest!" Yang Zuo persuaded bitterly, "Our Xiangping is always a lonely city. If the weather comes when the weather is sunny and rainy, Sima Yi If the bandits and Wei still insist on not retreating, what should we do?" "What's so difficult about this? What's the worry about it?" Wei Yan said nonchalantly, "By then, they will have been drowned by Shenyu one by one... Even if they want to come to challenge, their morale has been drained Weak and weak, with heavy losses and exhaustion, our Great Yan Army can just relax and wipe them out with one blow!" "Hey! Among the guards, you have never seen Wei Bing's power! You don't know, I heard that the Xianbei barbarian Mo Huba also led his people to join Sima Yi. Now Sima Yi is like a tiger with wings added, unstoppable!" Bei Yan frowned. , still worried. "There's nothing to worry about!" Gongsun Yuan raised his eyes, and slowly glanced at the group of officials, "Sima Yi has recruited the Xianbei barbarians in western Liaoning. Could it be that I can't recruit helpers outside? Wang Xiangguo, you Quickly send someone to contact the High Palace of the King of Goguryeo, offer him a generous gift, and invite him to cooperate with us at the right time to attack Sima Yi, an old fox!" General Gao Yunming of the Goguryeo Kingdom and his attendant Gao Delai led 20,000 elite soldiers from the upper reaches of Liangshui to the south, rushing forward through the muddy road.They were ordered by the King's High Palace to go outside Xiangping City to help Gongsun Yuan.But at the same time, the High Palace also gave a firm order to Gao Yunming, the chief general of this army. When the situation is critical and unexpected, he must obey every word of Gao Delai, the servant and supervisor of the army. When Goguryeo's troops rushed to Liulinkou, which was more than 280 miles away from Xiangping City, a thin line of fish belly was already visible on the horizon. "Master Supervisor, let's take a rest here and go to Xiangping City after breakfast!" Gao Yunming looked at the surrounding terrain and suggested to Gao Delai. "Okay!" Gao Delai also looked around, with a nervous expression on his face, "It's just that General Gao, you must send someone to strengthen the patrol around you." "Yes!" After Gao Yunming heard this, he wanted to turn around and issue orders.At this moment, a series of long and thick horns suddenly sounded in front of them, "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" like the howling of a fierce tiger. "There is...there is an ambush!" Gao Delai and Gao Yunming were startled, they hurriedly reined in their mounts, and ordered the soldiers behind them to prepare for battle immediately. As the sound of the horn sounded more and more urgently, among the misty mountains and forests, there were also strange sounds of leather drums and whistles, and flocks of crows and birds flapped their wings hastily. , hurriedly flew up to a higher branch, curiously rolled his round black eyes, and looked under the tree. "This... this is the voice of the Xianbei barbarian!" Gao Yunming turned his head to Gao De with some horror, "He...they..." Gao Delai stared at the front, with a dignified expression, and only said lightly: "They have come!" On the open space in front of Liulinkou, Xianbei people gathered from all directions.Some wear feather ornaments on their heads and bone chains on their necks; some have leather skirts around their waists, and bare feet and arms; It is written with various patterns of birds and animals.Looking at their hands again, all kinds of weapons were shining coldly in the morning light.Curved, straight, long, short, thick, thin, thorny, round, oddly shaped, mysterious and mysterious, making people feel scared when they look at them.Although they were all strange-looking and uneducated, they were able to follow the rhythm of leather drums and whistles and rushed forward, and soon formed a neat line in front of the Goguryeo army. square array. The Xianbei barbarians fought fiercely, and the Goguryeo scholars had already experienced it personally.Therefore, both Gao Yunming and Gao Delai changed their faces, and hurriedly sent an order: "The three armies are on alert—form an formation to fight!" Just when the Goguryeo soldiers stood up to the Golma to guard with all their strength, they heard the sound of the horn getting closer and closer, and the formation of the Xianbei people split a wide passage from it like a wave.A black banner with the five characters "Wei Taiwei Sima" was in the lead, followed by Murong Ba, the leader of Xianbei, and Niu Jin, the empress general of Wei Dynasty. "Wei...Wei dog is here too!" Gao Yunming clenched the handle of the knife in his hand, and looked sideways at Gao Delai, "Master Superintendent, we are rushing up to meet them..." Before he could finish his sentence, a "whoosh" screamed across the sky, and a feathered arrow was like a flash of white light, and it instantly landed on the grass a foot away from the horse's hooves under his crotch! Following the flying arrow came Niu Jin's slow voice: "My lords of the Goguryeo Kingdom, this general is Niu Jin, the Empress General of the Great Wei Dynasty. Today, I am here to welcome you and others by order of Sima Taiwei. Go to Xiangping City and join forces to defeat the traitor Gongsun Yuan!" As soon as he finished speaking, he raised the command flag with his right hand and raised it high. Birds and sparrows flew all around in a fright. Wei Guojun flags rose suddenly, and rows of Wei Guo cavalry emerged on the ground like iron walls, This Goguryeo team was surrounded by water. Gao Yunming raised his head and looked around, he saw that there were still dark shadows behind the big formation of Wei soldiers on all sides, and he didn't know how many Wei army infantry and Xianbei barbarians were ambushing there.It seems that this one is more ominous than good!He pursed his lips tightly, and was about to pull out the precious knife from its sheath—— At this moment, a powerful hand stretched out and grabbed his right wrist, making him unable to pull out the knife for a while!He turned his head in shock, only to see Gao Delai shook his head slightly at him, his eyes full of disapproval. "Master Supervisor, you..." Gao Yunming couldn't help being taken aback. Gao Delai's face was extremely solemn, he quickly thrust a yellow silk edict towards him, and said in a low voice: "Yunming, just take a look at this secret decree from the king..." Gao Yunming hastily opened the imperial edict and saw that it read: I would like to tell all the generals and soldiers who aided Yan that in this westward attack, advance when you see something is possible, retreat when you see difficulty, surrender when you see a siege, and make changes at random, so as not to harm the king's teacher.Goguryeo king hand edict. After reading this edict, Gao Yunming could only sigh, and let go of his right hand that was holding the knife handle tightly. Then, Gao Delai straightened his clothes, showed his face and smiled, jumped off his horse suddenly, stood on the grass, lowered his figure, greeted Niu Jin and Murong Ba with a deep bow, and said: "The ministers of the Celestial Dynasty are here, please The ministers Gao Delai and Gao Yunming obeyed the order of the high-ranking palace of the great king of their own country, and they are about to lead their troops to join forces with the Heavenly Army at the foot of Xiangping City, and together they will attack Gongsun's rebels..."
