The next morning.

Bianliang hundreds of miles away.

The sound of bells resounded throughout the capital, and the daily routine of the streets and squares began.

The officials passed through the palace gate, entered the inner city, and walked towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Since Zhao Ji escaped from the capital, the Hall of Supreme Harmony has also resumed its previous functions and was used for morning dynasties.

But at this moment.

Baiguan heard the sound of horse hooves coming from behind.

The officials were shocked. They were riding horses in the inner city of the palace. When they heard the sound of the horse's hooves, they seemed to be riding very fast. Who on earth was so brave and risked his life?

Even today's Duke Anyang would not ride a horse in the inner city for the sake of apparent stability.

Just when the pro-military people were about to stop him.

"Good news from the front line, General Chen Mo defeated the enemy!"

"Good news from the front line, General Chen Mo defeated the enemy!"

"Good news from the front line, General Chen Mo defeated the enemy!"

"..."

The scouts on horseback, holding up the battle reports in their hands, rushed towards the depths of the palace.

This time, no one stopped me.

All the civil and military officials who heard this were suddenly shocked.

Destroy the enemy army?

The other party claimed to have an army of two million, and it was defeated like this?

After being surprised, the officials in Xiao Yunqi's camp were immediately overjoyed.

Chen Mo belongs to Duke Anyang. If Chen Mo defeats the enemy, Duke Anyang's prestige in the court will rise to another level, and no one will dare to resist Duke Anyang.

Some officials' expressions changed slightly, as if Chen Mo's victory had ruined their original plan.

Some officials sneaked away and came back after a while.

In the court hall, as the eunuch read out the battle report from the front line, all the officials were stunned.

Taking advantage of the enemy's opportunity, when the enemy troops divided their forces to attack Luanshan County, instead of rescuing them, the entire army launched an attack on the enemy's main force of millions, and won the battle, killing hundreds of thousands.

How brave is this?

Because the enemy's army was said to be two million, the results in this battle report were naturally exaggerated.

Under such a great victory, the losses of our own army seemed to have been ignored by them.

After all the officials had finished praising Chen Mo, and then with Duke Anyang's nod, they agreed to the rewards Chen Mo requested in the battle report, they started discussing Chen Mo's request for help.

"The enemy is defeated and morale is at its lowest at this time. At this time, we must send reinforcements to help. Otherwise, when the enemy comes to breathe, it will be difficult to defend Qinyang County with the current defenders. If Qinyang County is lost,

The capital is in danger." A minister said.

"Master Liu's words are reasonable, we must rush to help quickly."

Zhao Chong, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked back.

Behind the curtain with carvings of dragons and phoenixes, a beautiful woman in a gorgeous dress was sitting upright. When she heard the good news, her face turned rosy and she raised her neck slightly: "Which beloved lady is willing to lead troops to rush for reinforcements?"

?”

As soon as these words came out, the officials did not reply, but were slightly stunned.

As usual in the morning court, Your Majesty would look at the Queen Mother first, then the Queen Mother would ask Duke Anyang for his opinion, and finally Duke Anyang would make the final decision.

And now, it seems that the Queen Mother wants to make a decision.

All the officials looked towards Duke Anyang.

Mr. Anyang also looked stunned, but he didn't think much about it for the time being. He must be rescued.

So he took a step forward, cupped his hands and said: "Now that the southwest has been defeated, the world is in chaos, and the capital is not safe. We need the imperial army to defend us, and we cannot send heavy troops there.

Therefore, in my opinion, we should allocate 10,000 horses from each of the Pro-Army Division, the Horse Army Division, and the Infantry Division to assist Qinyang County. As for the leader of the army, I recommend Quan Yang, the leader of the Imperial City Division..."

...

After Quanyang learned of the transfer, he immediately went home to see his sister and told Concubine Yu.

"Brother, aren't you the chief of the Imperial City Department? You're not from the Ministry of War. How come Anyang Gong sent you to be the commander of the rescue army?" Concubine Yu frowned slightly. She had heard that there was a lot of chaos ahead, so for Qi Quan

Yang was quite worried about going to the front line.

"This may be a good thing for me. It seems that Mr. Anyang really treats me as one of his own." Quan Yang said.

After all, no matter who he is, the power to command the troops will only be given to those he trusts.

"That's not what I'm talking about. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and I'm worried about your safety, brother." Concubine Yu said.

"Don't worry." Quanquan Yang patted Concubine Yu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "On this trip, I just went to support Chen Mo. After arriving, the decision-making power will be in his hands, and I have fought with his brother.

I have some friendship, so I guess he wouldn't arrange for me to go into battle.

Of course, it would be better if he was Chen Hong..."

...

In a small town less than a hundred miles away from Qinyang County, the streets and alleys were deserted, and the people were hiding in their homes, with their doors closed.

Because all the garrison troops from nearby counties were sent to Qinyang County for support, there were no officers or soldiers in the towns below.

The bandits on the mountain must have figured this out, and often ran down the mountain and looted the households down the mountain.

This also caused the people to run away, but those who didn't ran had their doors and windows closed, hiding in their houses for fear of being seen by bandits and suffering disaster.

A sloppy old man was walking down the street leading a black horse.

On the black horse sat a handsome young man wearing a bamboo hat. Looking at the closed doors and windows of every house, he couldn't help but frowned: "Mr. He, what's wrong with this town? You can't even see anyone."

"Maybe it has something to do with the war in Qinyang County." The sloppy old man said with some uncertainty.

"Well, since the year of Xuanhe, the war has not stopped. Now that we are in Kaiyuan, we don't know when it will end. Every time it is the common people who suffer," Master Jun said.

The sloppy old man smiled and said nothing, "The lady is good at everything, but she is too sentimental."

"Since there is no one around, we won't stay here any longer. We should hurry up and get on our way. We should be able to reach Qinyang County by night."

"Da da..."

As soon as Mr. Jun finished speaking, the sound of horse hooves sounded in the distance.

"The driver... the boss has someone, and he looks like a fat sheep."

"where?"

"There it is."

"Go, go, we're surrounded, drive, drive..."

A group of bandits, numbering less than a hundred people, surrounded the handsome young man and the slovenly old man.

The man who was called the boss by the bandits looked at Mr. Jun and said twice, "I'm afraid even women can't compare to this thin skin and tender flesh. If I hadn't been bad at this..."

As he said that, he circled around the black horse and then said: "Good horse, good horse, a good horse. Brothers, if the people don't want them, pick them all off and take the horses away."

After saying that, he was about to touch the horse's belly, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, Mr. Jun kicked him away.

Then Mr. Jun closed his eyes, took off the bamboo hat on his head and covered it in front of his face. Three thousand blue hairs were fluttering, and he murmured: "Mr. He, I can't see the blood."

"promise."
