The sound of arrows is rustling, the drums are clanging, and the hoofbeats of horses are furious; the shadows of swords are messy, the shadows of flags are turbulent, and the shadows of soldiers are stumbling. ([] .)

It was only three days in the leap month of August, and dozens of battles had already passed through Dingxi County. Suddenly, the wind and clouds were surging, and sand and rocks were flying in all directions.

They were fighting to the death, but it was not just the Qilianshan and the Anti-Golden Alliance. In response to Yin'er's most worried thought: Cao Xuan and Su Muzi were finally given an advantage.

But what was different from her imagination was that although it was Hong Han who made the provocation, it was Yang Miaozhen who sent the soldiers, and it was her who sang the phoenix flute - she was the one who said to Miaozhen, even if it is a corpse, you have to take me with you. Back... When she saw Hong Hanshu kidnapped her, Miao Zhen, of course, rushed forward to fight with Qilianshan without even thinking about it.

"The mistress has been captured by them!" Miaozhen rarely lost her calmness, so she blurted out this sentence to mobilize the troops. She said that she was captured rather than killed. Because Hong Hanshu was crying and laughing at the time, the mistress appeared a little bit. Vitality, Er Yin Miaozhen subconsciously hoped that what the master fighting on the front line heard was not bad news!

"Shen Zhao, Shen Zhao, when will you learn to restrain yourself!" Shen Zhao had just settled Qu Rong when he heard about this change. He immediately led his troops out of the city to help Miaozhen, in addition to threatening to rescue the leader of the alliance. , Shen Zhao vowed in his heart that he must improve his impetuous and forgetful temper - if he could be calmer at that time, he would not be so hot-headed that he would harm the alliance leader...

The war broke out in the north of Dingxi County, and Qilian Mountain was obviously at a loss for words. Lu Jing did not want to fight at all, and had always been on the defensive. However, Zhu Qingming and Gu Ziyue were different from her. They had become accustomed to it over the years and they all followed Hong Hanshu's lead. Hong Hanshu said a word to the enemy. If the army bullies you, won't you fight back? Zhu Qingming and Gu Ziyue will immediately obey the orders and retaliate with ten times the hostility.

The soldiers of the Qilian Mountain Nine Banners have always been of the type that "not all generals are very good at using troops, but they are more successful because of their excellent organization and excellent coordination ability, and they can fight without danger in a hundred battles, especially counterattacks." This is naturally in line with their It has to do with their growth experience - after all, they all resisted from decades of oppression. They worked hard and endured hardships, persevered, and had rich struggle experience, which was much higher than that of the Allies, even more so than the Red Coat Village. The nine "Qilian Nine Guests" A leader stands out among the nine major forces. Their martial arts skills have been carefully promoted. Although a few people still have bad intentions later on, they generally have good foundations. They have a strong will, a strong fighting spirit, and can defend both time and attack. .

Such an army can be defeated, but will never be destroyed. If you step into its territory, you will be stuck in the mud and cannot get out. On the surface, you have defeated it, but after being severely injured, you will vomit blood soon after. The one who will die will definitely be you; because if you press it for one drop of blood, it will give you two drops of blood and quickly replenish itself.

It is as defensive as iron armor and as solid as rock. Therefore, it is the graveyard of all invaders and oppressors.

The above is just the Qilian Mountains without Hong Hanshu.

Once coupled with Hong Shanzhu's arrogance, martial arts, and proficiency in the art of war, Qilian Mountain will immediately transform into another army, as passionate as fire and as sharp as a hook! Yes, Hong Hanshu's unique kingly style, commander-in-chief His talents and fierce attacks have made it so that in Longyou over the years, as long as Lord Hongshan participated in the battle, Lin Qian would not list him as the strongest opponent; from the time they debuted to the present, he and Lin Qian are the best at all levels and in all fields. You are chasing me and you are chasing each other without giving in. It is always a draw, each other is the only opponent that is rare.

Therefore, with the presence of Hong Hanshu, the Qilian Mountains have become feared by everyone, fearing its invasion, fearing its oppression, and even fearing its disruption...

Fortunately, Hong Hanshu had no intention of participating in this battle. Otherwise, Hong Hanshu would definitely force Lin Qian to turn the rear into the front line. Even so, it would be difficult for Miao Zhen, Shen Zhao, Yuan Ruo, and the upright young generals to fight in this battle. On the basis of protecting the Linqian stronghold and then effectively attacking the Qilian Mountain army, they were unable to achieve their purpose of launching this war, "rescuing the alliance leader". Instead, they trapped themselves in a cocoon and fell into an endless attack and defense with the Qilian Mountains...

At this juncture, Lin Qian and his strongest soldiers were fighting a fierce battle with the Jin army in Huining County. , Huang He went to Chen Zhu, these masters or generals of the Jin Kingdom, all Wanyan Junsui gave it a go, and nearly ten Jin troops attacked with great speed, making it impossible for Lin Qian's main force to escape; while Dingxi Longxi Other forces such as Evil Queen Hao Ding, Liu Miao, Sun Qi, etc. all need to be the backing force for He Meng, Xiao Yi and other allied forces to attack Lintao Chu Fengliu, and they cannot be mobilized easily at all.

Hong Hanshu's ability to shake things up and his power in troubled times can be imagined. Even Chu Fengliu, Xuanyuan Jiuye, Heshi Liehuanduan, Yue Li, and Huang He went to the five categories of leaders to use troops, attack the heart, deploy formations, and make deep plans. , Foresight can at most make Lin Qian stretched, and will not make him as anxious as Hong Hanshu... But didn't Lin Qian assess the situation beforehand? Who would have thought that Hong Hanshu would act randomly at this time!

"Lord, the time has come." It was at this moment that Cao Xuan, who had been quietly watching the situation for several days with a clear eye, found a smooth path for Su Muzi, who had survived the desperate situation. Like Hong Hanshu, the Soviet army could not help but Fight, when will we wait?

"General Cao is to me what General Gu is to my father!" Su Muzi found Cao Xuan like a fish in water. He had a clear understanding of the situation and knew whether the time was right and whether he, Su Muzi, was in good hands.

Looking back at the battle on the 19th of last month, Su Muzi experienced Nirvana and was reborn. Of course, the first moment he saw Cao Xuan, although he was grateful, he couldn't understand why Cao Xuan came to save a dying person, especially At that time, Cao Xuan had been the new leader of the army supported by Lin Qian for four years.

"Everyone, why?" At that time, he was disheveled and frightened. He asked the old generals who were familiar and yet unfamiliar on this road. They used to belong to the front, tread the white, and be brave. Things have changed and people have changed. It has been four years, these... The officers and soldiers have never experienced living under the shelter of others in Longshan and Shaanxi, and have never participated in the exile and abjection of Shandong. They have been at the border of Sichuan and Sichuan or under the threat of Dandao Valley, Linqian, Xuyuan and Fengming Stream. They should obviously enjoy themselves in ease and contentment and fall into depravity. …

"Second General, keep a low profile and prepare for attack. You are by no means alone. We, the officers and men, are all the same." At that time, Chen Xun, an old and white-haired guest in the army beside Cao Xuan, said kindly to Su Muzi. A smile.

"The officers and soldiers of Sichuan and Shu have always wanted to welcome the new master back." Cao Xuan was still the same as before, taciturn and sad--only such a person can survive under Lin Qian's eyes!

His arrival can vaguely prove his innocence. He is not the traitor who betrayed me, Cao Fansu Gu... He found a life-saving comrade in a desperate situation. Su Muzi was overjoyed and patted Cao Xuan on the shoulders: "Cao Xuan! This is keeping a low profile and keeping a low profile." Well done!" Over the years, he has endured the humiliation and would rather bear the misunderstanding!

Among Su Muzi's close loyal ministers, there was one such as Xiao general He Pinzhang who did not believe in Cao Xuan. He directly questioned him and was unwilling to accept the kindness: "Give up the peace and happiness of Sichuan and Shu to go to Longyou, where the situation is dangerous, to save a precarious army. Who believes it?"

!Second General, don’t believe them, they must have an agenda and an inside story!”

"Whoever wants to live a happy life and gives up his fighting spirit will be exhausted by the happiness and cease to exist; all the good things given to you during the day will be taken away at night, including the capital and profits... General He, there is no need for me to say more.

, I believe you also know these truths." Chen Xun followed suit, and He Pinzhang was startled. Although the hostility was still there, he was speechless.

"General He, you don't know that we lived in Sichuan and Shu, and even envied you in Longyou. At least, you can still be with General Gu and my lord, and you don't have to live so tiredly and against your will..." "If it weren't for

General Cao

Hold on...I can't hold on anymore." A group of soldiers told the story truthfully, their eyes red all the time during the short exchange, "Unexpectedly, my lord and General He don't believe us..." This situation and scene actually made him shout out.

Su Muzi is the lord.

"It's not...it's not that I don't believe you, it's just because, it's too good, too good, it's inevitable..." He Pinzhang was emotionally moved for a moment, waved his hands repeatedly, looked at Su Muzi, and didn't dare to say anything more, Su Muzi also said heartily.

Out of hiding: "Everyone, don't blame General He. He was divided into three parts in the south of Sanguan for four whole years.

In the north, it is inevitable that there will be some unfamiliarity. In addition, we are single and weak, and we are often surrounded by soldiers..." Cao Xuan nodded and continued to smooth things over for him: "It is human nature for my lord to have such concerns. Everyone, now is not the time to question. Without further delay, let's go ahead.

Helping the master regain his territory is the best way to show loyalty."

On August 20th, in order to show their loyalty, Cao Xuan and others tried their best to help Su Muzi defeat Guo Zijian, and finally captured Xiaoqingxing in Xiazhuang and controlled the territory. In their spare time, they talked to Su Muzi about the oppression of the Sichuan army and said: "My lord, if you still have doubts,

, you can send someone to Sichuan and Shu to see that even Wu Xi, the commander-in-chief, was suppressed by Lin Qian and Xu Yuan's people."

Cao Xuan said that for the panic-stricken Sichuan Army, puppets like Wu Xi were not worth looking forward to. The descendants of Guo Gao would be even more miserable if they fell into trouble and turned into bandits. Only the descendants of Su Jiangxue could lead them to seize power and restore the throne. They did not want those like Lin Qian.

Cao Mang was riding on the head of the Sichuan army, and because of the small resistance to the Jin rebels, they were superior to the entire Southern Song Dynasty official army. Su Muzi was their only hope for a comeback.

"Seize power and restore power", these four words hit Su Muzi's heart. At that moment, he was so similar to Lin Qian who had just debuted, and Cao Xuan was just like Xu Yuan at that time. Yes, if Cao Mang is superior to the court, it will be the same as his father

, Mr. Gu, General Tian’s wish

None of them are consistent, Lin Qian has never been the right person in the eyes of the orthodox officers and soldiers - this can also explain why Su Muzi still has so many die-hard followers when he reaches the end of the road, because his faith is tied to his

On the body, of course, there is no room for recklessness.

"If Lin Qian can do it, so can I." Su Muzi clenched his fists. Before the competition in Yunwu Mountain in the past, the rebel army had already lost everything. Unexpectedly, Tianjiao reached out and pulled it, and then Lin Qian let it go.

...Now that Su Muzi is in his prime, how can he not even have this fighting spirit?

After waiting for the situation for more than ten days, Longyou turned out to be exactly what they expected, with strong winds roaring and chaotic clouds collapsing.

"In this situation, Lin Qian has already fought with the Eastern and Western Jin armies and the Qilian Mountains, which is extremely convenient for our army's expansion." Cao Xuan reminded Su Muzi.

He Pinzhang also agreed: "To the west of our army are Guo Ao and Shi Qiuwu, and to the east are Yuan Ruo and Geng Zhi. Guo and Shi are extremely powerful in combat, and have Hao Dinglin's talents to support them, so they should not move first; while Yuan and Geng Zheng are

Being restrained by the Qilian Mountains will help our army take advantage of the weakness and seize its rear."

Chen Xun shook his head: "Guo Ao should be taken first, and Shi Qiuyu is the one." Chen Xun said, when the Qilian Mountains contain Yuan and Geng, and Chu Fengliu restrains Hao Dinglin's beautiful talents, our army should attack Guo Ao, Shi Qiuyu and others first.

.For one thing, their subordinates are all officers and soldiers who have just surrendered to Lin Qian. Their strengths and weaknesses are comparable to those of our army.

Familiar with each other, secondly, when our army was attacking Guo, because Yuan Geng and Hao Lin, who were at loggerheads with them, were tied up in other battles and unable to rescue them, our army had the greatest chance of winning, and at the same time, our army had the greatest chance of victory.

It stopped attracting Qilian Mountain's attention. Hong Han showed his strength. Our army had just begun to expand, so we must avoid him.

Su Muzi felt that what Chen Xun said was reasonable, and immediately felt that it was too late to meet him. If there had been a counselor like him in the early days of Youtian Ruoning, he would not have fallen into this situation.

"As Mr. Chen said, only by using the Qilian Mountains to our advantage can we gradually control the power of Longyou." Cao Xuan obviously wanted more than just this battle, but also Su Muzi's plan for the future.

Hearing this, Su Muzi nodded solemnly: Cao Xuan's strategic vision was really far-sighted in turning the enemy into his own advantage.

"It's time for Qilianshan and Yuan Ruo to fight each other. Our army will attack Guo Ao and Shi Qiuyu first. Then we will collect the achievements of Qilianshan and Yuan Geng, and then attack Hao Dinglin Meicai and the Jin army." Su Muzi also understood the situation.

He made a rational decision in his heart. "At that time, Dingxi and Lintao will all be mine, and Lin Qian will have nowhere to live and will be homeless."

"Fortunately, both Lin Qian and the Jin Army invested tens of thousands of troops this time. Both sides suffered losses. And it seems that Lin Qian might have shot the enemy in the foot." Chen Xun said with a smile.

"There is also a situation that we need to guard against, that is, Lin Qian was defeated by the Jin army. In that case, our army will not be able to escape the blame. Then all the sewage of the world will be poured on General Su. This may be the purpose of your coming." Hepin

Zhang Leng said, still unconvinced by the two outsiders.

"Act according to the opportunity, balance the strength of the Allied forces and the Jin army - don't teach Lin Qian a disastrous defeat, support when necessary, and kill in the dark." Cao Xuan said to Su Muzi. "This way we can prevent the world from talking about it." Su Muzi

nod.

Chen Xun was inevitably angry because of He Pinzhang's tone: "What is the purpose of our coming? The heart of a villain can judge the heart of a gentleman! Survive through the cracks, fight your way out, and finally take over this troubled world with the most incredible gesture. Is it impossible?

?My lord has such determination and courage, but you, He Pinzhang, are not young and energetic?!"

Although He Pinzhang felt that what he said was correct, he couldn't help being angry and responded coldly: "Mr. Chen, just feel free to make suggestions. We and other soldiers will fight bravely on the front line to fight the enemy. Let the second general fight the best of the battle."

!Don’t teach any traitors to ruin the reputation of the second general!”

"What kind of traitor?! Your so-called 'purpose' is neither flattering nor worth the loss. It's so funny. Just imagine that Lin Qian, when he is in high spirits, might use his disastrous defeat in exchange for the disrepute of our army?" Chen Xun was furious.

Just because he is obviously loyal, he is often suspected.

"..." He Pinzhang was suddenly startled and speechless, because Su Muzi, who had reached a desperate situation not long ago, had just used this trick. However, Lin Qian was in high spirits, how could he use it... Somehow, He Pinzhang never

After escaping from a desperate situation, when I think about what happened at that time, I always feel a thorn in my heart.

"Why did you two quarrel?" Su Muzi smiled, stepped forward to hold He Pinzhang's hand, and pulled him to Chen Xun's side, "It's all for the long-cherished wish of my father and General Gu, and for the sake of the officers, soldiers and the court, it's okay for each of us to express our opinions.

It’s not what I want to see if the harmony is hurt.”

The words were so sincere that He Pinzhang and Chen Xun took a step back and shook hands to make peace. Su Muzi did have his own merits. Cao Xuan watched this scene from the side with a relieved smile on his lips.

The successive entry of Qilianshan and Cao Su undoubtedly broke Lin Qian's deployment in Dingxi. Dozens of battles began in the first ten days of the year, involving the east of the county, various parts of the county, the west of the county, and the south of the county. Even if Lin Qian responded in time,

, readjusted the layout, and it was difficult to make up for the shortcomings of just two days. As a result, the offensive at Lintao Mansion on the western front could not progress. The pressure on Chu Fengliu, Xue Wuqing and other Jin generals was suddenly reduced, and the weather cleared after the rain.

The Jin army was already on the verge of despair, and even Chu Fengliu had given up hope, thinking that he only had half a day left to wait for death... Who would have expected that the person who helped them was not himself, the second prince, or the Qiang soldiers, but Hong Hanshu and Su Muzi! Everything originated from Hong

Hanshu kidnapped Fengxiao Yinrui

If he refuses to let go, he will probably continue to annoy Lin Qian in the future. Chu Fengliu doesn't know the root cause, but he also smiles from the bottom of his heart and praises Hong Hanshu: "He is the first person to shake the situation with defense." Because of this person's existence, Long

From the fight between two countries, it suddenly turned into a fight among all parties.

"Destiny cannot be disobeyed, and I will never destroy my gold." Xue Qingqing let out a long breath. After the rain stopped, the wind and cold began to heal, and he would soon be able to return to the battlefield to defeat Cheng Lingxiao.

Once upon a time, Chu Feng's life was hanging by a thread, Wanyan Jun was not worth the loss, Su Muzi's lips were dead and his teeth were cold, and the Shaanxi Jin Army was about to be destroyed. A series of plots went smoothly, but at the critical moment, Hong Hanshu came back to capture him.

Zou Yinger... At this moment, there is chaos in the county. The Song army must fight with Cao Su and the Qilian Mountains in an endless struggle, and Lin Qian is dragged to Huining on the eastern front by tens of thousands of Jin army... Chu Fengliu on the western front is almost certain to be rescued.

of.

However, under various pressures that were not conducive to the anti-gold alliance, Lin Qian was not expected to be so tough, as if the turmoil in the rear was nothing to him - even though enemies were everywhere, he still firmly had the upper hand.

In the lead, Longyou is undoubtedly the strongest. He didn’t say a truce. Who can take a breather?

That's right, although Chu Fengliu's pressure dropped sharply, he was only out of danger, not out of trouble. He was just lingering. How could he take it lightly...

The outcome of no war will meet the initial expectations. The most important thing in a battle is like playing chess. The most important thing is not the familiar tactics or chess skills, but the ability and control to adapt to the situation. Chu Fengliu believes that Lin Qian is a good person.
To be continued...
