Chapter 43 Blood Moon Killing

"In this world, there is no unbreakable city, nor natural danger that cannot be overcome!" Chen Ying looked at the rushing Yellow River in the distance with deep eyes and shouted: "In order to prevent the Huns from going south, Qin Shihuang searched the people's strength in the world and built the Great Wall. However, has this majestic and magnificent Great Wall blocked the Huns? Have they blocked the Xianbei people? Have they blocked the Rouran people? Have they blocked the Turks?"

The generals lowered their heads and kept silent.

Chen Ying shouted: "No."

Liu Tong wanted to tell Chen Ying that if the city was not built, the situation would only be even more difficult.

However, Chen Ying stubbornly said: "When the Xianbei people were strong, the Three Kingdoms were in turmoil and the Central Plains were weak. The Xianbei people took the opportunity to go south. The Xianbei people repeatedly broke through the pass and went deep into the Han area to rob grain, property and population. They called this behavior threshing grass. What threshing grass? That is to say, we Han people are like rice, and can harvest it whenever the season comes. Although the Xianbei people have disappeared now, this tradition has been inherited by the Turks."

Chen Ying clenched his fist with his right hand and hit his chest hard. Chen Ying pointed his finger hard in the southeast: "In Hedong, our compatriots are bleeding and dying! When Emperor Wen of the Former Sui Emperor was defeated by the Three Battles of the Former Sui Dynasty, they were surrendered and paid tribute. For more than ten years, they took advantage of the chaos in the Former Sui Dynasty, picked up swords and guns and took advantage of the fire to rob. Now, they do everything they have to do in Hedong. Wherever they pass, they don't leave any chickens and dogs, from the white-haired old man to the less than a hundred days of babies, without exception, and they are tragically killed by their hands."

The soldiers of Dingyuan Army were all excited and their hearts were beating violently in their hearts. The strong sense of humiliation made everyone's eyes look out, and they were all bloody.

"Our Dingyuan Army has been clearing the way with blood all the way, and this time is no exception! Only ten times the harm others have brought back to us. Only in this way can these guys remember! The rise of a nation is based on the tragedy of many nations. I just need you to remember this! We cannot be that tragic nation!"

Speaking of this, Dingyuan Army soldiers were full of murderous aura, and some people had become ferocious.

Chen Ying said: "The blood debt is only paid for. The soldiers, let's fight into Hedong!"

"Blood debts and blood repayment, and enter Hedong!"

With Chen Ying's order issued, the soldiers of Dingyuan Army and the soldiers of Lingwu Army all screamed and rushed into Hedong.

Chen Ying looked up at the moonlight and found that the originally bright moon slowly turned red.

The soldiers also saw this scene, and they all heard a legend. As long as the blood moon appears, it will smell blood flowing into a river.

Chen Ying also understood that this land would soon turn bloody.

...

His steps were heavy and his breathing was intermittent. A beautiful woman in a palace dress was sitting in a carriage, holding two sons of about four or five years old in her arms. Dozens of Tang soldiers with broken armor guarded the carriage and ran towards the Sanggan River. The road was rugged and there were hills around. Everyone's clothes were hung with shrubs, but no one dared to stop.

They were all the family members of the Duke of Yiyuan County, Zijin Guanglu Dafu, and General Bingyue (the general in charge of Chang'an City Defense, equivalent to the admiral of the Nine Gates of Beijing during the Qing Dynasty). The Duke of Warrior was originally a merchant. Once Li Yuan had rested at him, he had a private relationship with Li Yuan.

The samurai family was well-off. On the eve of Li Yuan's revival, he dispersed all his family to recruit troops for Li Yuan, and obtained more than 5,000 soldiers in total (the total strength at the beginning of Li Yuan's revival was more than 18,000, and more than one-quarter were samurai and the samurai were funded by the samurai.) The samurai was appointed as the military officer of General Li Yuan's mansion (official position of managing armor and military equipment). After Li Yuan entered Chang'an to ascend the throne and rewarded merits. The samurai ranked twelfth among the 14th title of the Tang Dynasty, and was officially awarded the title of Guanglu Dafu (third rank), and General Yue (General of the Guard). However, the samurai suddenly ranked high as a merchant, but had no military merits and his status was not stable.

For this reason, he did not bring his family to Chang'an like others such as Yin Kaishan, Liu Hongji, Liu Wenjing and others. Samurai's wife Xiangli took two sons Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang to live in Taiyuan. Samurai's wife did not allow her family to follow him to Chang'an. In fact, there was another factor, that is, the nobles in Chang'an, who were often excluded due to his background problems. Samurai's wife did not allow her to go to Chang'an, and there was also the factor of Samurai's inferiority.

However, the principles are different in Taiyuan. Compared with Chang'an, the fewer nobles in Taiyuan are, the higher the authority, most of them go to Chang'an. Those who stay in Taiyuan either have side branches or remote children. Not only does no one look down on the Xiangli family, who are from merchants, they are also respected. However, the good times did not last long. When Li Yuanji abandoned Taiyuan and ran back to Chang'an, the Taiyuan City was broken, the Xiangli family took more than a hundred Ding family generals to escape from Taiyuan City in the chaos.

After escaping from Taiyuan City, Xiangli did not run south along the official road like other refugees, but took the opportunity to hide in Yunzhong Mountain. Xiangli and his son hid in Yunzhong Mountain, and escaped the most chaotic three months. But now there is no way to hide in Yunzhong Mountain.

As more and more people hid in Yunzhong Mountain to take refuge, Yunzhong Mountain attracted the attention of the Turks. The Turks began to send people to search Yunzhong Mountain. Xiangli saw that Yunzhong Mountain could not hide anymore, and the dry food she carried with her had already been eaten up. In desperation, she just prepared to take the opportunity to go south.

However, with the loss of Hedong, only the Li Zhongwen tribe in Haozhou and the Li Xiuning tribe in Weize Pass were still struggling to defend, and the rest of the places belonged to Liu Wuzhou.

Xiangli didn't know how many Turkic people had escaped, but she knew very well that with their team of less than 100 people, once discovered by the Turkic people, it would mean death. Although Xiangli was born into a merchant, she was also a strong person. If she really couldn't escape, she would rather commit suicide than fall into the hands of the Turkic people and be humiliated.

"Run, run, run faster!"

Although the car was about to make Xiangli's shatter, she still gritted her teeth and persevered.

"Get it..." The sound of horse hooves getting closer and closer. Looking up at the blood moon in the sky, Xiangli's heart was filled with despair. She had heard the sound of waves and knew where she had reached before.

There is already a Sanggan River in front.

The name Sanggan River may be a little unfamiliar with everyone, but when it comes to another name, you may have some impression of it. That is Yongding River. That's right, Sanggan River is the upper reaches of the Yongding River. At first, Yongding was called Wuding River, so the river channel often changed, so it was originally commonly known as Wuding River. At the end of the 17th century, after taking extensive flood control measures, the lower reaches was called Yongding River. However, the upper reaches were always called Sanggan River.

It was the period when the Sanggan River was rising. The surging river surface was about four or five hundred steps wide. It seemed that because the Sanggan River was too irritable, the waves on the river surface seemed even more manic, and the Turkic words came faintly from behind.

Because of the business, Xiangli family also had Turkic herd slaves at home. I could understand that the Turks said in the back: "Catch the Han girl in front..."

Xiangli naturally knew what it would be like to fall into the hands of the Turks. She made a difficult decision in her heart and asked Wu Yuanqing: "Yuanqing, are you afraid of death?"

Wu Yuanqing had no idea what death was. He said loudly: "My grandma, Yuanqing is not afraid of death, he is afraid of pain!"

Xiangli hugged Wu Yuanqing in his arms and choked and said, "With my mother here, you won't feel any pain."

At this moment, the guards behind the car had already fought with the Turkic pursuers, and from time to time, screams of being shot or being slashed.
