To the north of the provincial capital, the meandering Qingshui River flows slowly, and the tidal flats on both sides are covered with lush aquatic plants, like a beautiful picture scroll, quiet and peaceful.
However, on the provincial avenue not far away, countless unkempt refugees and broken soldiers were crowded, chaotic and noisy, which was incompatible with this place.
These refugees are all away from home in order to avoid the ongoing war near the provincial capital.
They dragged their families and walked towards the Gyeonggi Province with heavy steps. The carriage was full of packages, and the gray-haired old man drove the cattle and sheep.
The babies who were still in their infancy were crying, the young mother was haggard, and the vicissitudes of the husband's eyes were empty and confused.
The rebel army fought against the imperial army in Qinghe Province, causing countless villages to be burned and people to die.
These refugees all fled their hometowns to avoid wars, but regarding the future, they feel that their future is a cloud of fog, and despair and fear shroud them.
Yang Hao, the personal captain of the provincial inspectorate, was dressed in dirty and ragged refugee clothes, and was mixed in the long, slow-moving queue. His tough cheeks were full of fatigue.
It took him a lot of effort to escape from the occupied provincial capital, and fled all the way north, finally escaping the pursuit of the Qinghe uprising army.
The Qinghe army is currently busy sharing the spoils and throwing a celebration banquet, so only a small number of rangers are chasing and killing the remnants of the enemy, which allows Yang Hao to escape.
Yang Hao was originally an orphan adopted by the inspector Yang Fang, relying on Yang Fang's big tree, he usually lives well.
But now that the capital has fallen, the big tree he relied on has fallen, and he will have to rely on himself in the future.
Now the conquest army of the fourth prince Longtian is on the road to Qinghe province, so Yang Hao is going to take refuge with the fourth prince Longtian with the personal letter written by the inspector Yang Fang before his death.
"Da da! Da da!"
When the thirsty Yang Hao bowed his head to drink water to quench his thirst by the Qingshui River, suddenly there was a rush of horseshoes in the distance.
The refugees who were resting by the river also felt the vibration of the ground and the sound of horseshoes. They stood up and looked into the distance, with panic on their faces. They were worried about encountering robbers or bandits.
Soon, several cavalrymen in black military uniforms appeared in everyone's field of vision. They were scouts from the Dynasty Army.
These scouts were very vigilant, they reined in their horses from a distance, and looked at the huge number of refugees from a distance.
After a while, two scouts rode close to these fearful refugees, wanting to ask for some information.
"Who are you and how did you get here?"
A scout rode up to the crowd and asked loudly.
"My lord, we all escaped from the capital, where there is a war." Someone in the crowd replied.
"How's the situation over there now?" the scout soldier continued to ask.
However, what these refugees knew was limited. Some said that the provincial capital had been breached, while others said that hundreds of thousands of rebel troops had already moved towards this side, and some said that the Inspector Yang Fang was still standing firm.
"I am the personal guard of Lord Inspector Yang Fang, and I want to see your chief."
At this time, the excited Yang Hao squeezed out of the crowd and ran to the scouts.
The scouts looked up and down Yang Hao who was wearing sloppy clothes. The sour smell made the scouts cover their mouths and noses uncontrollably.
"This is my badge."
Yang Hao hurriedly took out his waist card from his arms and handed it over.
"Take him to meet the captain!"
The scouts carefully checked the badges, and immediately took Yang Hao out of here.
Not long after, Yang Hao, whose identity was confirmed, told the scout generals everything he knew.
This scout team is one of the scout teams sent by the fourth prince, responsible for scouting the enemy.
They have now learned from Yang Hao that the provincial capital has fallen and the inspector general Yang Fang has died in battle. They dare not neglect and report the news quickly.
Soon, Yang Hao, the insider, was quickly sent to the army camp of the fourth prince Longtian, and personally reported the situation to the fourth prince.
The banners of the Dynasty army camp were unfurled, and the army was at its peak. The tents of the 100,000 troops stretched for more than ten miles, and teams of rangers patrolled around the camp to guard.
"His Royal Highness let you in, remember not to lose etiquette."
Yang HaozaiAfter changing and washing clean clothes in the camp, he waited for half a quarter of an hour outside the large tent of the Chinese army before being summoned by the Fourth Prince.
After Yang Hao took a deep breath, he followed a guard and walked into the large tent of the Chinese Army.
Dozens of generals in bright armor sat on both sides of the large tent of the Chinese army, and there was a heavy and depressing atmosphere.
When Yang Hao stepped into the big tent, all eyes were on him, and he felt an inexplicable pressure immediately.
? Yang Hao has followed Supervisor Yang Fang for many years, and he has seen big scenes, so he settled down and moved on.
"The Supervising Envoy Yang Fang's 100-member general Yang Hao paid a visit to His Highness the Fourth Highness¡ª"
When Yang Hao was still more than 20 steps away from the Fourth Prince Longtian, he stopped and walked to salute.
The fourth prince, Long Tian, ??was wearing a black battle armor and a battle robe embroidered with flying pythons. His chiseled face showed a sharp self-confidence, giving people a sense of calmness and prestige.
The fourth prince, Long Tian, ??is not a flower in a greenhouse. Although he is young, he has already experienced in the border for many years, and he can be regarded as a man who knows how to fight.
"General Yang, please tell me how the situation in the provincial capital is."
The fourth prince stared at Yang Hao like a knife, without the slightest sloppiness, and went straight to the point.
"A few days ago, more than 100,000 thieves surrounded the provincial capital with heavy troops. The Overseer summoned more than 10,000 garrison troops"
After Yang Hao took a deep breath, he told everything he knew.
"These thieves are really deceiving!"
"Inspector Yang fought to the death for the country. He is indeed a pillar of our dynasty. It's a pity."
After hearing Yang Hao's report, the generals in the Chinese army's tent were filled with righteous indignation, regret, and watching with cold eyes.
It's just that the expressions and actions of these generals all fell into the eyes of the fourth prince Longtian, and a sneer appeared in his heart.
After Long Tian asked Yang Hao to retreat, he turned his attention to the gathered generals.
Although Long Tian is the commander in chief of the army this time, his control over this army is actually very weak.
At least most of the dozens of generals are from Prince Longjun's lineage, as well as from the prime minister's mansion and the general's mansion.
Facing Long Tian's military orders, they have always been obedient and obedient, so the progress of the army has been slow.
Although Long Tian was very angry and wanted to replace these disobedient generals, but the relationship behind them was so complicated that he didn't dare to go too far, so he could only give a warning.
Two days ago, he killed several quartermasters on the grounds of delaying the military order, and severely frightened these veterans. Otherwise, their army might not have left Gyeonggi Province at this moment.
"Old General Zhang, the provincial capital has fallen, what should our army do?"
Long Tian did not express his opinion easily, but asked a white-haired old general who was sitting first on the left.
This old general was the deputy commander of the expeditionary army. When he was young, he also shocked the border, but now he is seventy years old, and he is no longer as brave as he used to be.
At his age, he should have lived in the royal capital, but now the imperial court lacks generals with rich combat experience, so he was temporarily sent to assist the fourth prince, Long Tian.
