From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 655

Moyunfang has a huge influence. Relying on the foundation laid by "Three Kingdoms" and the national character of Dajin Times, it has become the largest bookstore in Dajin in the past two years. It has more than 30 writers and can influence the direction of public opinion to a great extent.

When Qu Ling arrived here, he asked someone to invite Shen Qiaoshan, wanting him to write a high-level and inspiring article in person.

Shen Qiaoshan is a great scholar of the time, and now he is a teacher of the Imperial Academy. He is capable enough to lead the readers and spread this news throughout the capital.

Dajin Times will not publish other sections tomorrow, only the military section, which will specifically write about the great victory in the northwest and the great achievements of crushing Mongolia and sealing the wolf's lair. At the same time, it will exaggerate the difficulties of the capital today and describe Huang Taiji's entry.

Only in this way can the blood of the people of Dajin be fully mobilized and everyone can participate in this defense battle.

After a busy night, it was not until the next day that Qu Ling finally looked at the newly printed Dajin Times with peace of mind and sent it to various places in Shenjing.

She was not tired, but held her breath in her heart and looked to the east, where the sound of war drums had been heard.

This time the sound of war drums was particularly persistent, and at the same time the horn was blown, and the 90,000 troops of the Eastern Tartars finally began to gather and advance towards the city tower.

When the defenders saw the opponent's battle, they already understood that the Jurchens were going to get serious.

After attacking for four or five days, the people were exhausted, and the weapons, resources and physical strength of the defenders also fell to the bottom. This was Huang Taiji's best opportunity.

"Regardless of everything! Kill on the tower! Then cooperate inside and outside to open the city gate."

"The first person to climb the tower will be promoted three levels and rewarded with 1,000 taels of silver."

"The one who helps open the city gate will be promoted four levels and rewarded with 3,000 taels of silver."

Huang Taiji rode on horseback, holding a golden scimitar, and shouted loudly: "Son! Conquer the Great Jin! Destroy the capital! Revenge for the late emperor!"

"Kill!"

The 90,000 troops all rushed towards the eastern gate. Two huge siege vehicles were several feet high, and hundreds of people pushed this behemoth close to the tower.

The Jurchen warriors climbed up the ladder inside the siege vehicle and killed directly.

The ladder was quickly put up, and everyone went forward one after another, fearless of death.

They were all the elite of the Eastern Tartars, fighting for many years and extremely capable, while the defenders of the Great Jin were immature soldiers. After four or five days of bloody battles, their energy and physical strength were not as good as before, and they were indeed no match for the Jurchens.

The war finally began, and it entered a white-hot stage from the beginning. Both sides fought desperately and killed very brutally. Countless people fell every moment.

Song Shanao personally went to the battlefield. He knew that this was the most critical moment. He raised his big knife and roared: "Heroes of Dajin! Protect Shenjing! Protect the world! Avenge our dead compatriots!"

The bloody battle was carried out in the sun, and the shouts and killings shook the entire Shenjing.

And in Shenjing City, another shock also swept over.

The latest news from Dajin Times is that the Duke of Weiguo successfully repelled the Mongolian army in the northwest, and led the army northward, annihilated the Mongolian army, flattened the grassland, went deep into the northern desert, burned the Mongolian holy city, and sealed the wolf's lair.

Sealing the wolf's lair, what a touching word!

The north has defended against Mongolia for hundreds of years and suffered countless losses. Now the blood feud has finally been avenged.

Especially some people from Shaanxi and Shanxi, who heard the news that their hometown was safe and Mongolia was completely destroyed, were so excited that they could not be more excited.

"Duke Wei! I knew Duke Wei could do it!"

"Conquer the Wolf's Lair! Smash the Mongols! Who dares to say that our Great Jin can't beat foreign races!"

"Duke Wei is on his way back. As long as he comes back, these Donglu dogs are nothing. Kill them all!"

Under the promotion of the Confucian scholars of the Imperial Academy, the news spread throughout the entire Shenjing in just one hour.

Countless people were excited. They wandered on the streets, spreading the news frantically, fearing that there were still people who didn't know.

All the major restaurants and teahouses were full of business. Countless people rushed in, drinking and chatting happily.

Not only the people, but also many officials, constables, princes and ministers knew the news, and they were also very excited for a while.

In practical terms, the pacification of Mongolia made their position more stable. In emotional terms, they had been suppressed for so many years. This time they were directly killed by the opponent, which was simply too cool.

"Hold it! As long as we hold it this time! The Jin Dynasty will be stable!"

"Zhou Yuan, this kid, may be hateful, but he is really capable!"

The whole court was discussing, but in the cabinet, Yang Guozhong frowned.

"I don't know if we can hold on!"

He was very worried. He had been paying attention to the situation on the tower. The army had been fighting repeatedly. IfNow we are facing the Eastern Tartar army in the most exhausted state, and it is very likely that we will not be able to resist.

Deng Bochi said in a deep voice: "We must hold on no matter what. Zhou Yuan is already on his way back, and Huang Taiji is also anxious. Otherwise, we may have to besiege for a while."

Wang Lun said: "Seventy thousand people have been killed, and there are still hundreds of thousands of men in Shenjing."

Deng Bochi glared and said: "They? Lord Wang overestimated these people. They will only run away when they see soldiers. How many people have the courage to stand up and fight?"

Wang Lun said: "So we need someone to lead them. My suggestion is to let the Shenjing prefect send out constables, disguised as ordinary people, to incite and call for action."

"This plan is feasible!"

Yang Guozhong immediately said: "Ten thousand people fight against the enemy, and the Great Jin is united. Can't our hundreds of thousands of men in Shenjing stop Huang Taiji!"

Deng Bochi smiled bitterly: "Old Yang, if the people really have such courage, then our Great Jin would not have been suppressed for so many years."

"If It's different now."

Yang Guozhong said calmly: "Lord Deng should go to the streets and alleys to see what the people are doing now."

"The Dajin Times has been published for two years, which has inspired the wisdom of the people in Shenjing to a certain extent. Now that the news of Fenglangjuxu has come, the men can't wait to kill to Mongolia and hold a ceremony to worship the sky."

Wang Lun nodded and said: "That's right, the blood of the nation is awakening."

Deng Bochi stood up and said solemnly: "In this case, let's act immediately. The situation on the tower is very serious. A large number of Donglu people have killed up and been killed back. They have fallen into a battle for positions."

"Once the Donglu people go down the tower and open the city gate, everything will be over."

As they expected, at this moment, on the eastern tower, due to the continuous weakening of the garrison, they can no longer stop the Donglu soldiers who are waiting for the opportunity.

These people rushed to the tower, holding knives and slashing, and then they were surrounded and killed to death.

But as more Donglu people rushed to the tower, it became more difficult for the defenders to clean them up, and the situation of the war was constantly changing.

"We can't let them go down! Guard the gap!"

Song Shan'ao killed all the way with a knife. What he feared most now was that Donglu people would enter the city and help open the city gate, so that the Donglu horses would rush in and there would be no fight.

"Fuck, it's great!"

Hong Bo pushed the corpse away, stood up with difficulty, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Brothers! It's time to prove that our Wucheng Bingma Division is also a regular army! We are no worse than anyone else!"

"Pick up your knives and chop off the heads of Donglu Tartars for me!"

He rushed forward with wounds on his body, which were already stained with blood.

"Old Hong, slow down!"

Luo Kun hurriedly led people to follow him to kill, for fear that this old friend would do something stupid.

Liu Daguang looked to the north and wiped the blood from his eyes hard. His vision was blurred and he could hardly see clearly.

No, we must persist!

Persist until Boss Zhou comes back!

The Wucheng Army didn't embarrass him this time, he will definitely praise us.

"Kill!"

Liu Daguang roared, wrapped the knife tightly in his hand with cloth, and rushed forward.

At the same time, the constables in the city turned into civilians and began to move.

In the restaurant, a middle-aged man who seemed to be slightly tipsy smashed his wine bowl on the ground and shouted drunkenly: "Duke Weiguo led his soldiers to kill Mongolia in the north! Duke Zhenguo led his soldiers to protect Shenjing! Now Duke Weiguo has not returned yet, Shenjing is about to fall, and we are still drinking here and bragging."

"I won't be such a coward! I want to go up to the tower! Kill the Tartars!"

"Follow me if you are a man! Help Duke Zhenguo defend the city! Never let the Donglu people kill into Shenjing and harm our compatriots!"

When he shouted, the strong men who were really half drunk were suddenly shocked.

"Fuck you! You are the only man! Am I not?"

"It's just killing the Tartars! Count me in!"

"As a man, I will never be a coward at this time."

A dozen men walked out of the restaurant, and more people looked at each other, roared, and ran out.

Shouts were everywhere in Shenjing City. Under the awakening of blood, they burned their anger and ran towards the eastern gate.

Ten people, a hundred people, more than a thousand people, thousands of people...

The scale is getting bigger and bigger! The momentum is getting more and more magnificent!

"Defend Shenjing! It is our duty!"

"The rise and fall of the world! Every man has a responsibility!"

The scholars of the Imperial Academy stood up and shouted exciting words, making these men in Shenjing full of anger and fierceness.

"The country is in crisis! If you are a man, you should stand up.Come out!"

"Tens of thousands of people died east of Shenjing! All killed by these bastards! They spared no one, young or old, male or female!"

"Now it's all our fault, can we endure it! Can we be fucking cowards!"

People who haven't read books naturally speak more roughly, and they don't know how to say things like "duty-bound" and "the rise and fall of the world"...

They just know that they must stand up at this time!

Go kill those foreign beasts!

"Xiao Ping... your skin is getting more and more watery..."

"Shui Ling, your mother! Are you still talking sweetly at this time? If you dare to defend the city, I won't charge you for a month!"

Someone was talking in the brothel.

"Wife, if I don't come back alive, tell our son that his father is poor, but he is not a coward!"

In the alley, someone strode out with an axe, and he didn't look back at the woman standing at the door holding a child.

"Dad! Do you want to go too? "

In a noble mansion, a five or six-year-old child looked at his father.

And the fat middle-aged man grinned and said, "Don't you usually say that you hope your father is a hero? This time, I will be a hero for you to see."

He walked out of the mansion with a group of servants.

The Six Great Lanes are no longer what they used to be. On this bustling street, Qiu Yuanren shouted, "Our nine gangs are living well now, first thanks to your majesty's wisdom, second thanks to the cultivation of the Duke of Weiguo, and third thanks to our own efforts!"

"Now this group of Donglu Tartars want to take all this away, they are wishful thinking!"

"I, Qiu Yuanren, dare to go to the national crisis and dare to fight on the city wall. If you brothers still recognize me as the leader, you should follow me with a knife!"

"In the past, oppressing the good was not a skill. Now we are protecting the country! "

Countless people in Shenjing gathered into a mighty wave, which was powerful enough to sweep towards the east of the city.

Seeing this scene, Deng Bochi was stunned.

He looked back at Yang Guozhong and murmured: "Old Yang, when did our people become like this?"

Yang Guozhong said: "It has been like this since ancient times and has never changed. "
