Long Song Wanli Dingshan River

A man wearing a dark purple cloak stood in front of Chang Ge, blocking the arrow for him.

His knife was extremely sharp, and when the blade collided with the arrowhead, there was a clear and sharp sound, which circled the beam non-stop.

This person takes the knife.

The blade is curved, and the light is cold.

Chang Ge recognized the knife at a glance: "Mountain-breaking knife!"

The owner of the Broken Mountain Knife is Xia Luo, the captain of Xiangyang County, and the Xiangyang military will listen to his orders.

On the top of the city gate, when Li Shouyi saw the general who was in charge of him, his voice suddenly fell silent, and the generals on both sides bowed their hands and saluted: "General Xia."

Xia Luo spoke with a strange hoarse voice: "Shouyi."

Li Shouyi said indignantly, "General! This man is not very popular. He is actually General Jianwei of Yizhou. He has been in Yizhou for three years and devoured our land in Chu. If this person is not eliminated, there is no guarantee that he will defect to the state of Chu in the future and serve as a minion for a tiger—although the sharp sword is a famous product, it has blades on both sides, general, think twice!"

Only then did Xia Luo turn around.

He was looking at Chang Ge carefully, and Chang Ge was also looking at him carefully.

Previously, Chang Ge thought that Luo Zhongyong was abnormal in Xia Tian, ​​and his mountain-breaking knife was even more superb. In any case, he never expected General Xia himself to have such an image.

Most of the things on him that should be paired are not paired, such as one-eyed, one-armed.

Xia Luo only has one hand, and he is lazily resting on the Broken Mountain Knife at the moment.It was this hand that helped the state of Chu guard the north gate of Xiangyang for more than ten years.

When the two met each other, Chang Ge immediately understood why Xiangyang City suffered a crushing defeat.Xia Luo's complexion was purple, his lower lip was chapped, and he looked like he was dragging his seriously injured body to hold on.

Xiaoqing hurriedly helped each other, but Xia Luo waved his only hand and stood on the ground with the Broken Mountain Knife.

"...General."

Xia Luo stared at Chang Ge, and opened his voice in a hoarse voice, "Xiangyang was besieged for 43 days, thanks to General Gao Yi, who solved my crisis."

Chang Ge didn't answer.

As far as he knows, Xia Luoying is Zhu Zheng's confidant, and he was placed here during the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the people around him should not know the inside story.At this time, Xia Luo stood up for himself, if Chang Ge treated him too kindly again, it might arouse suspicion.

What's more, Li Shouyi on the top of the city gate was supposed to be Xia Luo's subordinate general. If Xia Luo treats his subordinates harshly in order to protect the foreign general at this time, it will also disturb the morale of the army.

Therefore, at the moment, it is the safest way to wait and see the changes.

Xia Luo went on to say: "General Li said that although he might be sticking to Xiao Ai, he was thinking of me, Da Chu, and it wasn't completely unreasonable. The general came here on this trip, apart from Mr.'s handwriting, is there any official talisman? "

Chang Ge replied: "I came here to investigate following the order of Master Sikong, but I never expected that Xiangyang would be in such a dangerous situation. I was in a hurry and didn't bring a talisman."

Li Shouyi stood upstairs and shouted: "If you don't wear a talisman, you are no different from a commoner in white! Wait for me first—"

"Justice!"

Xia Luo's voice was hoarse and vicissitudes, but Li Shouyi was inexplicably calmed down.

There was no sound on the tower, and Xia Luo glanced at Chang Ge coldly, and waved to the city guards: "There is no talisman, so I can only offend the general for the time being."

The gate of Wengcheng was wide open, and a row of guards filed in, wanting to take down Chang Ge without saying a word. The leading guard almost grabbed Chang Ge's shoulder with his hand. warning.

"Hold on."

Xia Luo said: "Am I asking you to arrest the criminal?"

The guards around were so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe out, they were so quiet that they could even hear the crackling sound of burning torches in the city very clearly.

Xia Luo changed the subject: "In any case, the head of the Wei army's forward general Situ Wu today was captured by this general in red. In terms of this achievement, this general should also be my guest in Xiangyang."

Everyone is obedient and dare not refute.

He once again saluted Chang Ge: "The general has no talisman for the time being, please stay in the east chamber of the official office for a few days, and after I ask Lord Sikong for instructions along with the briefing, I will let you instruct me."

Hearing this, Bai Suzi guessed that the "sir" mentioned by General Xia Luo was the same as the gentleman mentioned by Chang Ge before.

And this general Xia Luo who spoke is really not simple.

Some remarks not only chilled the hearts of the subordinate soldiers, but also clarified Chang Ge's achievements, and also mentioned the briefing for instructions-this means that Xia Luo will write down the person who will be killed in the briefing, and ask for it. achievement.

It is indeed complete.

Only Li Shouyi was still dissatisfied. He slapped the battlements and shouted, "General Xia!"

"Don't talk too much." Xia Luo said, "This person has a personal grievance with you, General Li should avoid it, and wait for the master's instruction."

The torch illuminated half of Li Shouyi's face. His face was gloomy, but he didn't say anything more.

Xia Luo turned sideways: "General, please."

Chang Ge returned the gift, and Xiao Qing led the horses of the two of them, and hurriedly followed.

Xia Luo personally led the way to the east chamber of the official office. The small group of elite soldiers he brought, after Chang Ge entered the small courtyard of the east chamber, surrounded the east chamber airtightly from inside to outside.

Chang Ge expressed his understanding of this, no matter how he felt in his heart, before Chu Ting's official documents came down, he still had to be careful on the surface.

On the contrary, Xiaoqing exploded at a little bit, only felt that his general had been wronged, cursing darts flew all over the sky, and Chang Ge managed to hold him down.

In such a conflict, Xia Luoshun was accommodating, and immediately spoke, allowing people except Chang Ge to freely enter and leave the East Chamber.

Nothing happened that night.

The next day, Chang Ge entrusted Youqing to visit, and only then did he find out the current situation in Xiangyang.

Xiangyang City, originally had Sun Lian and Sun Taishou, and Wu had Xiangyang County Captain Xia Luo, but a few months ago, when Xia Luo was out on patrol, he was besieged by hundreds of people. Although he returned to Xiangyang City with a broken leg, But the sharp weapons that hurt him were all poisoned, as soon as they touched the Xiangyang city gate, they fell headfirst and fell unconscious.

Wei Jun took the opportunity to move south and besieged Xiangyang.

When Xia Luo fell, his subordinates Li Shouyi, Liu Suqing and others had to obey the management of Sun Taishou for the time being, but Sun Taishou couldn't even lift a dagger, so there was no such thing as a conquest on the battlefield, surrounded by tens of thousands of Wei troops, he was dumbfounded , I don't know what to do.

Sun Taishou could not defend himself, let people go to find out the news, and then sent elite soldiers to ask for help. As a result, all the people he sent out were hacked to death with knives, and they were thrown under the city the next day. The news could not get out or come in. Sun Lian circled around.

The warplanes were delayed again and again, and Xiangyang City had no food and grass supplies. The people in the city had eaten up the surplus food, so they had to reduce the number of meals and kill horses to satisfy their hunger. They lived for more than 40 days.

Xiangyang was besieged for 43 days, and the people in the city changed their children to eat. The bloody and terrifying scene was like purgatory on earth.

Taishou Sun couldn't bear it anymore, so he decided to escort the people of Xiangyang to retreat.

According to the plan, the young and old stayed behind, and the women and children went first. Before leaving, the people in the city lit up sky lanterns to pray for blessings and worship General Changge, the god of war, and begged him to bless the land of Xiangyang.

Unexpectedly, just after nightfall, the defense of the southwest corner tower was suddenly breached, and the people rushed out, and happened to fall into the encirclement of the Wei army.The Xiangyang defenders were caught off guard, and were in chaos, powerless to resist.

Sun Taishou hung up the white silk in the official office, and was about to apologise, when suddenly news came——

General Chang Ge appeared.

It's just that Li Shouyi made things difficult for this apparant general when he first entered Xiangyang Wengcheng. Prefect Sun really couldn't understand the kindness and resentment between these generals, so he had to blindfold his eyes and shut his ears, pretending not to know.

In the next few days, I don't know whose idea it was, they always made things difficult for Chang Ge in every detail, first they didn't send food, and later the dishes were mixed with gravel, obviously they didn't want him to have a good time.

That day the Wengcheng was in chaos, and Bai Suzi also mixed in.He was squatting on the eaves of the East Wing for the past few days, and seeing Chang Ge being angry with food, he suddenly had a plan.

Bai Suzi managed to make some stew, and even ventured out of the city to hunt down two rabbits.When Chang Ge came back from practicing martial arts, he opened the door, and a pot of rabbit meat was boiling lively. Bai Suzi stood in front of the hanging pot, waiting for him with bright eyes.

He thought to himself, how can the icing on the cake compare to giving charcoal in the snow!This time, he can always stay!

As a result, Chang Ge not only didn't thank him, but also lost his temper. Bai Suzi was almost thrown out by You Qing with a broom, and Chang Ge didn't even look at his stewed food. For the hungry Xiangyang people to eat.

The commotion in the east chamber was too loud, which directly alarmed Xia Luo. After understanding the ins and outs, the meals sent to Chang Ge that day included both meat and vegetables, and desserts were also included.

When the food box was lifted, the room was full of fragrance.

After starving for several days, Xiao Qing was so greedy that he almost gnawed on the box when he saw such exquisite dishes, but Chang Ge silently closed the food box, asked someone to transfer the food, and confessed: "Just eat with the army, You don’t have to do it on your own.”

When it was delivered again, the dishes were colorless. Chang Ge picked out half portions of various dishes and handed them to Xiaoqing to transfer to civilians outside the government office. He only ate half portions.

Bai Suzi was lying on the eaves of the government office, seeing Youqing quietly delivering the meals, and only then did he understand where he was wrong.

That evening, Bai Suzi was still squatting on the eaves, still racking his brains on how to sneak into Chang Ge's side, when he suddenly saw a five-horse carriage galloping towards him.

The emperor drives six, and the princes drive five.Although the state of Chu became king, the etiquette system has not been greatly changed, and it is still a system of princes.As far as he knows, the only person in the state of Chu who can ride in a chariot driven by five horses is the King of Chu.

Could it be that the person sitting in the car is the King of Chu?

Bai Suzi immediately flew forward and squatted lightly on the cornice.

Sun Taishou of Xiangyang County stood at the door early, looking around with his neck on tiptoe, looking forward to becoming a husband-wife stone.

The five horse-drawn carriages had just arrived and hadn't come to a complete stop yet. The old guy immediately clasped his hands together and sang loudly: "Sun Lian, the prefect of Xiangyang County, greets Lord Sikong."

Bai Suzi gave him a disgusted look.

I know, this is Lord Sikong, but I don't know, I thought it was the King of Chu.

But the person in this car is actually Lord Sikong of Chu State.

In the past few days, Bai Suzi has heard several people talk about him three times.

The first time, it was Chang Ge who refused to keep him by his side, saying that if he was in trouble, he could go to the old residence of Guixin to find this "Master Sikong". Wang Yidao, Fuzi Palace for the former king.

Chang Ge said that he was cold-faced and kind-hearted, but You Qing disagreed.

The second time was Xiangyang Wengcheng. Xiangyang defenders suspected Chang Ge's purpose, so Xiaoqing pretended to have a handwritten letter from "Master Sikong" in a hurry, and managed to control the scene for a while.

For the third time, Chang Ge didn't bring a talisman, Xia Luo mentioned that he would submit a briefing, and it was this "Lord Sikong" who asked for instructions.

Not only that, he has been lurking in the official office for the past few days, and he has heard many people mention this Lord Sikong.It's just that everyone doesn't call him an official position, but respectfully calls him "Mr."

Even Sun Taishou, who is in his 40s, talks about each gentleman. How old is this "sir"?

Just as she was thinking, the curtains of the car were slightly rolled up, and the visitor first revealed a luxurious dark blue sleeve.

Bai Suzi glanced at him, he was not very old, but he was covered in brocade, obviously he was a dude.

I saw the man in the dark blue shirt get out of the car, facing the prefect Sun, he actually raised his foot, and his chest was full of heart.

Sun Taishou lived like a puddle of mud, clutching his heart and paralyzed on the ground, groaning in pain.

The surrounding government soldiers didn't even dare to look up, let alone Fu.

The man in dark blue brocade clothes had a cold face: "Xiangyang City is broken, and I lost [-] soldiers and [-] people! The battlefield was dragged several miles away, and the Wei army gathered the heads of our people and hung them high on the watchtower—you This prefect did a good job! Sun Lian!"

Sun Taishou rolled on the ground for a long time, just after he breathed a sigh of relief, he quickly crawled over, not daring to grab the person's hem, he just kowtowed repeatedly: "Lord Lu, calm down, Lord Lu, calm down! Xiangyang City is broken, there is something hidden about this matter, It's just because of-"

Hearing him call Lord Lu, Bai Suzi realized that this person was not Sikong of Chu State, but Lu Zhenyun, the regular attendant of Chu State Sanqi.

Although the position of Sanqi's regular servant is only the third grade, he is at the side of the King of Chu. He can understand the King of Chu, and he can advise hundreds of officials. He also serves as a military and political adviser.

The siege of Xiangyang resulted in such a virtue, and Sun Taishou just kicked it, and it was not wronged at all.

"slow!"

Lu Zhenyun stopped and said: "Master Sikong has arrived, what's the secret, you straighten your tongue for me, and enter the official office later, tell me every word, slowly."

"Yes Yes!"

There was another sound in the car, Sun Taishou bowed respectfully, and said in a high voice: "Congratulations, Sir Sikong!"

Lu Zhenyun was obviously taken aback by his flattery, and cast a glance impatiently: "See it clearly!"

Only then did Prefect Sun raise his head.

Standing in front of the car was a calm and gloomy young man with a strangely shaped wide-mouthed small bone flute hanging from his waist.Although he was dressed as a native of the Central Plains, he had a lot of braids in his hair, and even his eyebrows and eyes had the feeling of a young man from the northern border.

The young man saluted and said: "Prefect Sun, I am Jing Yun. My husband said that the prefect does not need to be formal, just get up and answer normally."

Only then did Sun Taishou stand up, smirking and patting the ashes on his hem.

Seeing that he no longer practiced the practice of knocking three times and bowing nine times, Jing Yun took a step back and got out of the car.

The first is not, the second is not, and the third must be!

Bai Suzi grabbed the eaves and straightened his neck, trying to see the appearance of Lord Sikong clearly.

The soft white gauze curtain was finally rolled up again, and a hand stuck out first.

The curtains on the car are extremely soft, like the misty smoke on the top of the mountain, it looks like the best rare goods.

But when this hand came out of the gauze curtain, it was actually set against the white gauze like soft smoke, like a mortal thing.

This hand is an unspeakable transparency.

This person's joints are stretched and slender, and his fingers are slender and well-proportioned, protruding from the car, like moist Yuzhu, lightly emitting clouds and mist.

The boss, Situ Xuan, boasted that Zelan's hands were white and beautiful, like water onions, and Bai Suzi still agreed.But when he saw these hands today, Ze Lan's hands suddenly paled, looking ordinary.

He couldn't help but wonder what kind of circumstances it took to raise such a pair of impeccable hands.

And if this jade hand stretched like a snow moon is used to kill people, what will it look like?

Bai Suzi was still in a trance, but Lu Zhenyun, who had just raised his foot at the eunuch and kicked him in a hostile manner, suddenly became docile, raised his hand respectfully, and was about to personally help Lord Sikong get out of the car.

"Sir, watch out for Guideng."[3]
