From besieging Yangcheng, to the sudden burning and bursting of the city gate, to Zhu Ling taking advantage of the chaos to climb the city, it was almost a blink of an eye, and the successive changes and means made the Cao army, including Yan Kuang, unable to deal with it.

When Yan Kuang came to his senses, Zhu Ling had already led his men to kill the other side, then captured the city gate tower, opened the pin of the suspension bridge winch, and put down the suspension bridge...

Yan Kuang was shocked and was about to order someone to go to intercept him, but he heard the sound of arrows roaring in the darkness. Then there were twitching sounds around the city walls and battlements, which scared not only Yan Kuang, but also Cao soldiers around him hugged their heads to avoid them, not daring to move rashly.

Among the combat effectiveness echelons of Cao's army, the private soldiers of the major generals were undoubtedly the first echelon. Then the Qingzhou soldiers were next, and then the Jizhou soldiers who were originally Yuan Shao's Jizhou soldiers and the Yanzhou soldiers who had accompanied Cao Cao for many years, and finally the military farm soldiers led by Yan Kuang.

In general, it is like "foot light", and most of the time it is spent farming. Although there is military control and some training, compared with those soldiers who are always facing life and death, the biggest enemy of the military farmer is probably the weeds on the ground and pests in the fields.

So when there was a sudden attack and new changes occurred on the battlefield, the response speed and response measures of the military soldiers under Yan Kuang all arose.

In addition, Yan Kuang had ordered the torches on the top of the city to be extinguished. The military soldiers, due to nutritional deficiency and vitamin deficiency, had a much lower vision in the dark light. They almost had no resistance to the attacks of Zhu Ling and others. When Yan Kuang finally organized people to reach the city gate tower that Zhu Ling captured, he found that only the wreckage of Cao's army was left in the city gate tower, and the suspension bridge winch had been completely destroyed and could not pull the suspension bridge. Zhu Ling and others ran down the road and had already started a fight near the entrance of the city gate!

Yan Kuang had no time to think about it, and even hurriedly held a knife in one hand, rushing to the city gate, shouting that Cao's army would resist and encircle Zhu Ling and others...

But when Yan Kuang arrived at the city, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves very quickly. He looked up and looked forward, and a cavalry had already arrived in front of him like flying!

Yan Kuang subconsciously raised his knife and slashed!

The person on the horse's back seemed to have not moved at all, as if he had no idea at all, but just as Yan Kuang's sword fell, a long halberd appeared in front of Yan Kuang like a whirlwind, and hit Yan Kuang with his head and face.

Yan Kuang was shocked and had to struggle again, but the long halberd suddenly tightened and squeezed. Yan Kuang's sword flew high and then his shoulders sank. The crescent moon of the long halberd was already pressing against his neck. Yan Kuang suddenly couldn't stand firmly and was directly crushed to the ground!

The Cao soldiers around him looked at him in a daze, and for a moment he was as stupid as a wooden chicken...

Taishi Ci snorted coldly and glanced at Yan Kuang, "Oh, isn't this Yan Zhonglang? Are you okay?"

Yan Kuang's guard reacted, howled and rushed upwards.

Taishi Ci didn't even look at it, so he swept the long halberd open, immediately swept to the people in the front, and then shouted, "Are you going to kill your general?"

The remaining Cao soldiers were suddenly embarrassed, and they were not moving forward or retreated, and they all rushed to the spot tremblingly.

"Where is the cultural world?" Taishi Ci sat upright and shouted loudly, "Come on the flag!"

Zhu Ling responded with a high voice, then rushed up from behind Taishici, raised the object in his hand high, and then slapped heavily on the ground!

The flagpole's tail was pierced on the bluestone slab. The stone slab was unable to hold on and suddenly split into pieces. The tail slab continued to penetrate, and it was nailed into the soil under the stone slab, and then stretched out in the night wind, making a sound.

This big flag was picked on the flagpole that was three or four meters long. The tail end of the flagpole was deeply inserted into the ground, and the other end pointed to the night sky with bright moon and sparse stars. At this time, the strong wind blew, and the flags were waving. As the city gate holes were gathered, more and more fires were shining. Only then could the Cao army soldiers around him see clearly that it was not a wooden flagpole, but an iron-handled flag. On the big flag were three colors, and in the middle were four huge characters "Big Han Cavalry"!

The Cao soldiers stood there for a while, then ran away with a "boom" sound...

Outside the city gate, the cavalry and horse hooves rolled in, and the power was like a mountain collapse and the ground was broken. Taishici pointed out Yan Kuang, who was lying down like a salted fish on the ground, "Bind it!"

…?(????)??…

In mid-August, the fourth year of Taixing in the Han Dynasty.

The whole county of Xu County is still in a tense, anxious but noisy atmosphere, and a bit of joy.

The prince of the Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty is full moon today.

In ancient times, the mortality rate of neonates was extremely high. Almost every household had babies who died prematurely, so generally they gave children a bad name. One was to try to interfere with and obscure the so-called monsters and monsters, so that these guys thought they were really just dog egg stones and didn't try to harm the baby's life. Another aspect was that even if they really couldn't survive, they had a psychological comfort, so they really treated it as a dog egg stone and threw it away...

The high infant mortality rate is still due to inadequate development of medical skills, unprofessional delivery process, and the disinfection cannot be thorough. If you are not careful, you will be infected with "tetanus", which has always been said to "seven days of wind and eight days of throwing". Then the mother and son die, and the happy event instantly turns into funerals.

As for other infectious diseases, it is easy to cause death in babies, such as measles, smallpox and other serious diseases. Even colds, which later generations think are minor diseases, were often fatal in ancient times...

Therefore, only after the baby is full of the month, he can barely pass the first gate of hell, and he can leave the scope of the ghosts and ghosts to see outsiders, and he can come out to see others for a formal meeting. Only then will the family with a son hold a banquet at this time, called the full moon wine, and then after a hundred days, another level is another one, and there is a hundred-day banquet.

The son of the emperor is extremely precious, so this full moon banquet naturally needs to be held.

Even though I learned that Taishi Ci was marching in Yangcheng, the northern part of Jingzhou seemed to be in an ordinary situation, with rumors in the court and restless people, such happy events were still to be done.

At least, you can get into bad luck, right?

Whether it will be a war or a reciprocity between Cao Cao and Fei Qian in the future, related matters and news were once rumored in Xu County. People were looking forward to the rapid passing of this war. Some people thought that Cao Cao would teach the General of the Cavalry a severe lesson, but some people also had a pessimistic attitude, believing that the Cavalry was stronger. Cao Cao had the upper hand before but it was just that the Cavalry was attracted but not...

Of course, only some people who recognize the chaos in Jingzhou are qualified to know the real situation, and most people receive one-sided news. After all, the "official" news cannot be said to be all deceitful, but there will inevitably be some screening or delays.

However, in this way, over time, people will always have some bad premonitions in their hearts. So using such a full moon wine from the emperor's son and such a happy event to guide their eyes and divert their focus, of course, Xun Yu's current best choice.

If Cao Cao was outside and maintained the stability of the Cao military group, then inside, Xun Yu was maintaining the order of the Cao political group. Xun County, which seems to be still singing and dancing, is actually in danger, and in a blink of an eye, it may even be at the gate of the city.

Faced with such a situation, Xun Yu still has to be optimistic and relaxed in the outside world at all times, and present a confident state, otherwise...

However, the actual situation of the Cao Group is already difficult to support.

The years of warfare have almost no stop. The various consumption brought by the huge number of soldiers in the military operation has made all the classes in Yuzhou and Jizhou very dissatisfied. Under such circumstances, even if Cao Cao wins, he may not be able to support the next wave of offensives. Many people have come forward and openly oppose the continued war. Of course, there is no direct blocking and resistance, but the meaning is always there.

"The general's outstanding achievements are naturally due to the country, but this contribution...hehe, I believe you understand..."

"Brother Wu said so much...

"In this way, the general is going to return to victory? Where the Yangcheng...ah, haha...is it all for plants and trees?"

"Why is this? This is at the foot of the emperor! To put it bluntly, if this place is in chaos... Humph, may you not think about the way out?"

"How could a martial artist in Liangzhou have any way out? If he is anxious to jump over the wall... Well, it will be a big deal..."

"The superiors and subordinates cannot be united. How can soldiers use their lives?"

"It shouldn't be started easily... The war cannot be estimated like this, but the cavalry is strong. When Dong thief was alive, the cavalry of Xiliang was already the leader. Although it declined later, most of them were returned to the cavalry... Now the cavalry has the son of Liu Jingzhou in hand. If the cavalry is dissatisfied with this battle, it will inevitably be tragic! At that time... If the war continues, what is the emperor's feet..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone talking about them couldn't help but feel a little solemn.

"At that time, the cavalry will attack with all their might, although it may not be destroyed. In the end, it will be just like last time... Once each other is consumed, the power of Shandong will only gradually bottom out. By then, the cavalry will always be strong, and you and Shandong will be in trouble!"

"This, this is a bit alarmist!"

"That's right! The cavalry suddenly rises and has no foundation. If it comes with things, it will not last long. As the saying goes, one will make a spurt, two will decline, and three will be exhausted. Its strength is strong, but it may not be known about people's livelihood governance. After a long time, government affairs will decline and become corrupt. At that time, you and I may have a chance..."

"Ah! The great man shouldn't he want to take care of the people and be more peaceful than that family? How did he become to see who is worse and unable to hold on to it now?!"

"Hey! Some things are in reality, and they are definitely not something you and I can change... Now this situation has made the people of the world and the soldiers inside and outside the city..."

"When the world is prosperous, the people suffer, and when the world is in chaos, the people suffer too!"

"Oh, brother, this is very true, very..."

There are such nagging comments on the streets and in the market. In this slightly dull Xu County, it seems that only this way can it not be like a pool of stagnant water. These comments are like the Mid-Autumn Festival wind, roaring through the streets and alleys, then crashing into the General Cao's mansion, and then being suppressed by the four big words "Loyalty, Filial Piety, Benevolence and Righteousness" in the festival hall.

Xun Yu and a group of Xu County officials were having a meeting.

"The lord indicated in the letter that the battle in Jingzhou is about to end. General Xiahou regained Fancheng and there was no more worries in Jingbei. However, the army of the cavalry Taishi was eyeing outside Yangcheng, and he might start a sudden attack at any time, so he must be on guard." Xun Yu said.

『I have already sent someone to go to Yangcheng and reminded Yan Zhonglang to be more alert... But Yan Zhonglang is alone and can't help it, I'm afraid...』 Man Chong looked at Xun Yu, "I'm worried that Taishi will repeat the old trick and go across the city... At that time, the troops will be at the city, and they will force us...』

『It's okay...』 Xun Yu said, 『Wancheng is trapped in the hands of the lord, so...』

Xun Yu didn't finish speaking, but the meaning was very obvious.

Liu Ye suddenly raised the corner of his mouth, glanced at Man Chong, and then looked at Xun Yu.

Although Xun Yu did not look at Liu Ye, he also felt Liu Ye's gaze. When he looked back, he only saw Liu Ye's lowered forehead, shining naked.

Xun Yu knew that what he said now was no longer as convincing as before. After all, it was very difficult to establish trust in this thing, but it was easy to collapse once it was about to collapse. For the sake of the overall situation, Xun Yu deliberately concealed a lot of news. Although such behavior is understandable, it inevitably widened its lower limit. Sometimes it is questionable, and it is inevitable that it is inevitable.

Especially guys like Liu Ye...

But what's the solution?

I can only say that I have a clear conscience.

Thinking of this, Xun Yu's eyes suddenly fell a little, and then quickly raised them again, "Your Majesty is happy to receive a son of the Lin, the full moon is celebrated, how did Ziyang do all the affairs?"

Generally, people's full moon wine is just to do it at home, and then eat and drink, but the emperor's son's full moon cannot be casual. What's more, when the queen was pregnant last year, she was praised by the prison officials for a long time and pardoned the world.

When talking about the content he was responsible for, Liu Ye naturally would not be vague. He took out a piece of wooden slip from his sleeve and then started to speak in detail...

On August 13th, the six gods are on duty, everything is suitable. It is an unprecedented good day during this period.

early morning.

Emperor Liu Xie walked forward with his head held high and led a group of people to the Taimiao place.

When the son is full of the month, he must officially join the Liu family genealogy and have a formal "name", while the "character" must be even more mature and will not be able to do it when he is twelve or thirteen years old.

Liu Xie was wearing a crown, a jade pendant and a colorful ribbon. The red and black crown garment was embroidered with gold and silver wire, which looked particularly luxurious under the rising sun in the morning.

According to the request of the Supervisory Officer, and then the Shaofu invited him in, a total of five names were prepared for Liu Xie's new son, namely: "Qian", "Qi", "Qi", "Qi", "Feng", and "Yao", as alternatives to the new son of the Full Moon.

Like most fathers, Liu Xie seems to have difficulty choosing when facing the names of his children. The word "Yao" was first excluded by Liu Xie, while the word "Qian" Liu Xie felt that it was a little weaker, and the meaning was average, and it didn't seem to be very good, so it was naturally excluded.

Although the remaining words "王" and "Feng" are pretty good, they seem to be a little worse than the "王" which represents Beidou...

Therefore, should it be the best to "用"?

Liu Xie is in the middle and the officials behind him are arranged in the back according to their respective positions. They are all wearing court robes and respectfully. In this ceremony, Liu Xie needs to choose a name and then let the ritual officer in charge of the sacrifice burn, representing an announcement to the old man Cangtian above his head, as well as the ancestors of the Liu family who are in the air or in the imperial power, saying that he will hang a sign for his new son, giving him some attention and protection...

The etiquette official Jiubinshi is in front of the hall, and the yellow gate drums, musicians and so on are located on both sides of the Taimiao Hall.

Blue smoke surrounds.

The flags flutter.

Liu Xie was filled with emotion.

In fact, he had never seen his son several times before. Strictly speaking, it was only twice. Once, the queen gave birth on that day. She took a quick look outside the delivery room, but didn't even hug her. Later, it was a day before the full moon. She looked at her again. This time, she was held in her hands, and she felt a little bit connected with flesh and blood.

Of course, Liu Xie would never admit that he was frightened at that time. The painful shouts in the delivery room, the continuous heart-wrenching shouts made Liu Xie sweat even if he stood in a distance and heard them...

So at that time, Liu Xie did not feel the joy of his new father at all, but was more overwhelmed with fear. So after hearing that he was born, what was rolling in his heart was not close to his relatives, but he breathed a sigh of relief and completed a task and fled the harem.
To be continued...
