Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3644 Reuniting students

The group of people who had fled in embarrassment was fleeing along the rugged mountain road. The enemy was chasing after them with their tails in their mouths. They were about to be chased and besieged. Suddenly, countless arrows shot from the hills beside them. The locusts generally shot, and they shot the chasing soldiers behind them in pieces, and then an army of several hundred people charged down, bravely rushed into the chasing soldiers, and chopped melons and vegetables arbitrarily.

The group of people who survived in desperation did not continue to flee, and the leader shouted: "It's the Duke of Yue! The Duke of Yue has come to save us!"

The other hundreds of people stopped together and turned around under the leadership of the leader. Even though most of them were ragged and covered with scars, they were not afraid of a wave of counter-charges.

The group of chasing soldiers was originally stunned by the interception that suddenly appeared like a god soldier, and the team was cut off from it, and the formation was completely chaotic. The charge was immediately attacked from front and back, morale was lost, and the morale of the army collapsed.

And those soldiers who fled to the roadside forest to avoid the arrows saw that the situation was not good, and they didn't have time to think about it.

Fang Jun's personal soldiers all followed him to the south and north to fight. All of them were elites, and they were familiar with the art of battle formation. They were not fighting alone, but they cooperated very well. The flock generally rushed to kill at will, and the enemy army could not resist and collapsed quickly. More than a thousand people left the corpses and wounded on the ground, and they fled all over the mountains and fields.

"Don't chase the poor, gather up the formation, and treat the wounded."

Fang Jun stopped the personal soldiers from continuing to chase and kill. The ravines and mountains are high and the forests are dense here. The defeated soldiers escaped into it and wanted to chase and suppress them. .In fact, if he hadn't found out that it was an academy student who was being hunted down, he wouldn't have been able to intervene at all.

The personal soldiers stopped their pursuit and let the enemy flee without a trace. They turned around and quickly cleaned the battlefield and treated the wounded.

The group of academy students came to the front, and they were overjoyed when they saw that it was Fang Jun.Among them are General Xin Mao, Wang Fangyi and others who just came out of Youtun Guard...

"Prince Yue, it's really nice to see you!"

"We have a cheap life, and death is not a pity. How dare you trouble the Duke of Yue to come and rescue yourself?"

"If there is something wrong with the Duke of Yue, we will die to atone for his sins!"

……

The students of the academy came forward one after another and greeted each other around Fang Jun, but after the joy of escaping death, they immediately realized that they had left the Xuanwu Gate for dozens of miles in the identity of Fang Jun, and personally led troops to rescue them, the danger was real It was too big, and I was immediately ashamed and worried.

When Fang Jun saw General Xin Mao and Wang Fangyi, he nodded slightly and praised, "You did a good job!"

The two said in a row: "I was entrusted by the commander, and almost caused the students to lose their enemies. Please forgive me!"

Fang Jun waved his hand and said, "You can get in touch with the students as soon as you arrive at Zhongnan Mountain. It is a great achievement. It is impossible for the rebels to follow them. After all, most of the customs are now in the hands of the thieves, and there are rebels everywhere. How can you complain about your eyes and ears?"

Turning his eyes to Cen Changqian, Cen Changqian took two steps forward, slammed on the ground, and said solemnly, "We cannot repay Duke Yue's life-saving grace. It's just that Duke Yue shoulders a heavy responsibility and is the pillar of the East Palace. Surrounded by the enemy army, and the situation of the East Palace was ruined, is it because of small mistakes? I also ask the Duke of Yue to review it, and when you realize your mistakes, don’t make them again.”

Fang Jun laughed and took two steps forward to help Cen Changqian up with both hands. Seeing that this handsome young man, who used to care about his appearance, is now unshaven, ragged, and bloodshot in his cheeks. It can be seen that he escaped from the casting bureau to Zhongnan Mountain. I have suffered a lot for a few months.

Cen Changqian patted Cen Changqian's shoulder heavily, and said with appreciation, "Leading his classmates to guard the foundry, he is not afraid of life and death against the rebels who are several times his size. Instead, it is for wisdom to retreat in time to save strength, and to detonate the warehouse to hit the rebels. It is also for wisdom. Taking robes into Zhongnan Mountain, not abandoning or giving up any classmates under extreme hardship is for righteousness. Yuntian, worthy of being the leader of the academy students, this commander is proud of you!"

He really admired Cen Changqian. He was not only tough, but also brave and resourceful. He deserved to be a super boss who was second only to Wu Chengsi in the history of the imperial court.Historically, he was loyal to the Li Tang royal family. Although he was an official under Wu Zetian, he tried his best to prevent Wu Zetian from making Wu Chengsi the crown prince. Although he died on the charge of treason, he was an important figure that led Wu Zetian to return to power in Li Tang. one.

Now that Wu Meiniang has become her own concubine, Li Zhi is also unlikely to be in the position. I think that this amazing and brilliant character can achieve even more and end up better...

Cen Changqian was a little embarrassed by Fang Jun's remarks, but her heart was full of enthusiasm.Fang Jun is the idol and benchmark of all the students in the entire academy. It is really a matter of pride to be recognized by him.It's just that he is low-key and thin-skinned. At this time, he blushed and said humbly: "Yue Guogong is wrong! The students of the academy are all brothers and sisters. , how can I abandon the wilderness, let the beasts devour, and the bones are gone? Therefore, since the founding bureau collapsed, I gathered my classmates along the way, but was blocked by the rebels and could not return to Xuanwumen, so I had to hide in this Zhongnan Mountain."

Fang Jun nodded in relief, looked around, saw familiar faces, and suddenly asked, "Where is Ouyang Tong?"

Cen Changqian said: "Senior Brother Tong was injured by an arrow and could not move easily, so we made a simple stretcher out of tree branches and took care of it along the way."

When he was speaking, someone had already stepped forward with a stretcher. Ouyang Tong was lying on it, clasping his fists and saluting weakly: "The student has seen the Duke of Yue.

Fang Jun stepped forward and went up and down a lot.

Ouyang Tong, who was originally black and thin, was now described as haggard and thinner and thinner. He was curled up on a stretcher, with a stature like that of a child. His bright and sharp eyes in the past were now dull, and he wore a loose robe. There was a faint blood oozing from the thigh, and a face full of stubble was frozen blue...

Fang Jun asked in a gentle way, and learned that he was injured on the back buttocks, making it difficult to walk, and escaped in Zhongnan Mountain without medicine, which caused the wounds to fester. Fortunately, it was a severe winter, otherwise the wounds would have festered and infected bacteria. and die.

Immediately ordered the two sides to return to one place, and the army marched eastward for more than thirty miles before choosing a place to set up camp.

In the tent, Fang Jun watched Cen Changqian and Xin Mao devour dry food for the two of them, silently poured hot water for them, and inquired in detail about their evacuation from the casting bureau.

Cen Changqian was finally full, holding the water bowl in both hands, feeling the temperature of the hot water, sighing.

The rebels were strong that day, and the students could not resist, and they refused to sit back and watch the rebels seize a large amount of gunpowder in the warehouse. Therefore, one seriously injured person was left to detonate the gunpowder, and the rest broke through the encirclement and escaped into Zhongnan Mountain.The gunpowder depot exploded and countless rebels were blown into ashes, causing Changsun Wuji to be furious.

Cen Changqian took the students to hide and fled. Relying on the complex terrain in the mountains, they repeatedly escaped the pursuit of the rebels. However, when they evacuated from the foundry bureau, they were too hasty and failed to prepare enough food and clothing. As a result, the students were short of clothing and food in the mountains. , very hard.

In the past few months, Chang'an City has been fighting endlessly, and the rebels have not stopped chasing and killing from beginning to end. The students have been severely reduced, especially after being injured, they lacked medicinal materials to treat them.

This was a huge blow to the students’ spirits. The morale of the students was extremely low for a time. Many students disappeared halfway, or fell off cliffs and ravines with no bones left, or simply hid and left the team…

It was not until yesterday that Xin Mao would bring people into the mountains to search for them, and the two parties were brought together, which made Cen Changqian and others regain their spirits.It's a pity that he wanted to go down the mountain and retreat westward to Huxian County. When he crossed the Wei River from there and returned to Xuanwu Gate, he was accidentally discovered by the rebels and chased them all the way.

Everyone has lingering fears. If Fang Jun hadn't gone to Luoyang to take a detour this time, I'm afraid that these students who were spotted by the rebels would eventually be killed...

At this time, Wang Fangyi looked around and turned around. He came to Fang Jun and asked, "What should I do next?"
