On the night of August 26, Lu Duosun told Yang Gun a fallacy that betrayal of his own people is for the sake of the country's good. Whether the fallacy is reasonable depends on whether the listener is willing to believe it.

Lu Duoxun also said that both sides have common expectations and want Xiao Siwen to fall down! As long as Xiao Siwen is still there, he will not know when Yang Gun will be liquidated... Yang Gun has to admit that this is the truth.

"General Yang thought carefully and weighed the pros and cons." Lu Duosun stood up, "If General Yang helped us this time, the Daxu court will let you disappear for a while. Xiao Siwen will finish sooner or later, this is just the beginning. After a while, we have a way to get General Yang back to Shangjing to reinstate his post."

"What's the solution?" Yang Gun asked.

Ludoson said: "This is the matter of Privy Council of Daxu."

Yang Gun said calmly: "If... I said that if one day I was trapped, as long as your army opened a hole and let me take a few people back, there would be no need to hide."

Lu Duoxun immediately agreed: "This matter is not difficult. I will discuss with the generals of Xu army as soon as possible and say goodbye."

Not long after, Yang Ye and Fan Zhongyi came back. Yang Ye said that the officials of the military office had been removed and asked Yang Gun if he wanted to go to watch. Yang Gun said it was unnecessary...

Later I learned that Fan Zhongyi went to take a look that night and had no doubts at all, because from the beginning, Fan Zhongyi didn't think the officials in the front camp were fake. At that time, it was night, and the light of the murder site was unclear, and blood was covered with blood. The scene was very terrifying, so Fan Zhongyi confirmed that the body was wearing an official uniform.

...

On the battlefield west of Pingxingling, Yang Gun and others escaped the Shura field. He was wounded and led a team of people to trek through the mountains for a day, and found a small path to cross the mountain. Later, he only met some Xu Jun cavalry, who might be Gao Yanqi's Wuzhou army scouts.

They finally returned to Yunzhou.

Xiao Siwen immediately summoned them to meet, and asked with a blue face, "What happened after Yanmen Pass?"

At this time, Yang Gun fell to the floor with blood on his clothes and armor behind him. Yelu Hu'er stepped forward to check and hurriedly said, "Let the doctor quickly save General Yang!"

Yelu Hu'er then reported to Xiao Siwen: "Duke Xiao, Hedong is completely a trap!"

Xiao Siwen was not too surprised. He should have received some bad news in the past two days. He just asked anxiously: "Where is Xiao Duli, how is his troops?"

Yelu Huer said: "Xu's army of 100,000 people set up an ambush in Hedong! Yang Yemen turned against each other when they met, and the cannons were bombarded, and the cavalry rushed forward. Dong Zunhui's imperial guards rushed forward and raided my retreat. We were forced to go east, and we met Liu Renzhan's Pingzhou army in Pingxingling. Gao Yanqi was waiting to intercept it in the north of Yanmen Mountain..."

Xiao Siwen clenched his fists, his teeth choked and his eyes were covered with blood.

Yelu Hu'er had resentment in her tone. Obviously, he did not think that this defeat was the responsibility of the frontline soldiers. "It would be good if we went there, ten people can survive! The last general waited for Yang Gun to break through the siege and knew the road to Hedong. He was lucky enough to come back after all the difficulties and dangers..."

Xiao Siwen's body was trembling, her beard was messy, and she looked haggard, and she stood there without saying a word... At this moment, it was too late to do anything. It would be difficult to gather enough troops to compete with Xu Jun to rescue him in less than a month or two.

Xiao Siwen suddenly looked at Fan Zhongyi coldly. Fan Zhongyi observed it and knelt on the ground: "Duke Xiao... save me!"

"Preserve Fan Zhongyi and Yang Gun, and never let them leave the central army." Xiao Siwen said coldly.

Yelu Huer said: "Yang Gun fought to kill the enemy, wearing serious injuries. Please save his life first and wait for the court to convict him?"

Xiao Siwen was both angry and anxious and said to Yelu Huer: "You are just a defeated general who escaped at the last minute."

Yelu Hu'er bowed down and did not dare to inspire Xiao Siwen.

Xiao Siwen immediately left the headquarters and climbed to the southern city of Yunzhou to see. There was a wilderness in the distance and there was nothing to see.

Standing on the top of the city, when the cool breeze in late autumn blew, Xiao Siwen suddenly felt the coolness all over her body, which was so cold that it penetrated the bone marrow...

Such a big and complete failure, Fan Zhongyi and Yang Gun may not be able to bear the responsibility alone. The greater danger comes from Xu Guo and Da Liao, and Xiao Siwen has to desperately suppress his unbearable frustration and anger and consider the serious consequences afterwards.

He sighed to the sky and saw the flag at the top of Yunzhou city slapping the flagpole in the wind.

... "Bang!" The central army flag was blown, and Xiao Duli, who was in a daze, suddenly heard a huge noise coming from his ears. He was trembling all over, staring at the terrifying scene in front of him with his blood-red eyes.

All of them are corpses! Human, horse, the whole earth seems to be filled with dead people, messy weapons, and countless crazy living people.

"Bang bang bang..." More than a dozen people took iron guns and fired guns at a Liao soldier. The Liao soldier was splashing blood all over his body. He knelt on the ground, then pounced forward, turning into one of countless corpses.

It seemed that they were still fighting two days ago, and I don’t know when it would become a slaughter. Now there are not many Liao soldiers left, and there are still a few more people there, who are being pressed on the ground by the swarming enemy soldiers and sting desperately, screaming.

Some Liao soldiers climbed onto the mountain wall, like wild animals, and from time to time, people shouted and fell down from the stone wall.

The hillside where Xiaoduli stood was surrounded by Xu's army! At this time, a group of people finally came up the mountain.

The personal soldiers came forward with weapons to stop the group of people. Xiao Duli just stood there in a daze, his voice was already hoarse.

"Bang bang bang..." A few white smoke rose again in the air filled with smoke and dust. After a while, a group of dense people gradually approached the top of the mountain. The personal soldiers who had just gone down had no movement.

A big man in heavy armor came up with a large group of soldiers wearing strong and stalked sharps. The big man said, "I am Yang Ye, you can put down your weapons!"

The only person left beside Xiao Duli was holding swords and guns, but slowly retreating. He himself also stepped back in fear and despair, with his wide red eyes as if a sea of ​​blood was reflected.

...

The night in Daxu Capital was still so quiet. Guo Shao, who was tired, supported his head with his arms, leaned on a table and was half asleep and half awake.

He suddenly saw a strange scene.

The old floor tiles are inlaid on the ground. The square tiles from the brick kiln are originally very rough, but now the surface is much smoother, and there are cracks on them. A wooden strip is inserted straight between the floor tiles, and there are marks of knocking on both sides of the wooden strips, as if a stone or some heavy object is knocked into the gap between the bricks bit by bit, but when the knocking is avoided, the pointed tip in the middle of the wood is avoided. It seems that anyone who has made this thing seems to have taken a lot of trouble.

"Bang!" Suddenly, a man rushed to that place with a straight groan! The man groaned, hissing and breathing loudly, "Whoosh" and inhaled from time to time. A pool of blood was soaked from under him, his limbs began to struggle, his nails grabbed blood marks on the stone bricks, and finally moaned in pain...

Guo Shao trembled all over and opened his eyes and found that the eunuch Wang Zhong was holding a blanket on him.

Guo Shao stared at Wang Zhong, and Wang Zhong quickly took a step back and bent down to stand. Guo Shao then found that there was still someone standing in the bedroom, Xiao Chuo. Her success was still a little wet, with black hair at the edges, white and tender skin, but her ears were bright red.

"Your Majesty." Wang Zhong followed Guo Shao's gaze and turned his head to look at Xiao Chuo.

Guo Shao then remembered that Wang Zhong stood behind him by grabbing Xiao Chuo's hand that day in Wenhua Palace.

At this moment, another eunuch came outside the bedroom. Wang Zhong bowed slightly, walked to the door, and said something in a gusto. After a while, Wang Zhong came back and leaned over to Guo Shao's ear and whispered: "Your Majesty, the Privy Council has just received an urgent report from Hedong. Liao general Xiao Duli was captured by Yang Ye, and blood flowed into a river on the battlefield, and he was killed in vain. Most of them were the corpses of the Liao army..."

After hearing this, Guo Shao let out a long sigh and said, "Last time, I didn't have many houses in Tokyo. I'll pick the best one in the inner city for Yang Ye to keep. I'll give you a name, and you'll call someone a plaque, which is called 'Tianbo Mansion'."

Wang Zhong said, "I obey the order."

After Wang Zhong finished speaking, he carefully withdrew from the bedroom.

On the lampshade hanging on the wall, the exquisite pictures of ladies were illuminated by candles. There were many candles on the copper lamp stand, and the entire palace was reflected in the warm yellow light. Guo Shao looked at Xiao Chuo in the candlelight. The height of the young lady who was over teenage and an adult woman was almost the same, but her body always looked very thin.

"Your Majesty..." Xiao Chuo looked up at him, "I heard that the women who had served in the Central Plains Palace could never leave the palace again. Is it true for the sake of the royal family?"

Guo Shao said casually: "Look at when, in recent years, there has been no particular concern."

Xiao Chuo said timidly: "Can I still see my father?"

Guo Shao then understood what Xiao Chuo meant and said, "I'll see you." He pondered for a moment, and then said, "It won't be too long."

The emperor's words and words are obviously not going to deceive people casually.

Guo Shao stroked the shallow hair on his head and said in a long sigh: "You go back to your room to sleep. Wang Zhong should still be in the Long Live Palace now. You go out to find him to send you back."

Xiao Chuo was stunned for a moment and asked again: "Your Majesty, did you make you angry when you said the wrong thing?"

Guo Shao said gently and kindly: "No, don't think too much. If people can say the wrong things in front of me at any time, I will be even more alone. But I don't want to let myself get confused... I've been thinking about other things for a while and my mood is not good, so I will talk about it in a few days."

Xiao Chuo bowed his knees in a good manner and retreated silently. Her blessings were good, but she still didn't like to talk when she gave the ceremony.

Guo Shao looked at her thin back and sat steadily on the chair without moving.

The bedroom of Wansui Hall is tall and large, and the beds are also very large. Although the furnishings are luxurious, they still seem empty. Now Guo Shao is the only one who is left with this feeling. For the sake of demeanor, the emperors even made the sleeping place like this, and they did not feel safe at all in a room that was too big.
