Cover The Sky With One Hand, Beat The Ground With The Other - Chapter 59

Thousands of miles of battle, thousands of miles of yellow sand, on the face of the gusty wind blowing clothes to hunt and hunt, the coolness of the people.

It’s been almost half a month since I left Beijing. The counties and capitals that I passed through on the road were still as good as they were in the past. It can be seen that Nie’s army did not break through the defensive army and went north. In other words, Ze Zhou and Tongguan should not have been lost for the time being.

For several days, I tried to take the shortest path but failed to receive the relevant information in time. I am not sure if this security is due to the imperial court reinforcements rushing to Zezhou to defend the city. I don’t even know if Song Langsheng’s army has broken through the gorge and turned danger to safety or has been wiped out. I didn’t dare to think too much. I was afraid that I would not be able to survive. I still had a glimmer of hope in my heart, and finally came to Zezhou when a few horses were exhausted and even I was about to die with them.

Seen from the mountain, Zezhou City is already within sight, and it should be possible to reach it within two hours.

Thanks to the personal protection of the hundreds of shadow guards from Mingjian, oh, they follow me in uniform and openly under my order. They can no longer be regarded as shadow guards. Director Tao once explained that Jiansi’s shadow guards are good in terms of combat effectiveness. In this way, I can barely count as a thousand households leading a thousand troops. In case of any crisis, it should be easier to escape.

As the night approached, there was a burst of flames in the bushes ahead, illuminating the mountains almost instantly. This well-trained order naturally came from the army, and my guards drew their swords to protect me. In the center, I fixed my eyes along the fire, and about a thousand or more black armor soldiers stood upright and slowly approached our direction. As far as I looked like, it should be the local guard army.

I thought that we would encounter the enemy first, but unexpectedly, it was our own people who first discovered our whereabouts.

I breathed a sigh of relief. I was waiting to identify myself, but listened to someone among the soldiers shouting: “Who is a bandit, dare to attack Zezhou City at night!”

I stayed for a while. The voice was so familiar. Although it seemed to be more bold than the original sound, it still couldn’t conceal the faintly amusing meaning, but who was it not Lu Lingjun?

I raised my voice: “Lai Xia’s surname is Bai, and his double name is Yujing. He is a good brother of the well-known Lu Qianhu. I wonder if you have heard of it?”

As soon as this remark came out, a black armored soldier dismounted first and went out of the team. The fire was bright and dark, cutting out the handsome outline of the man. I rode the horse forward, and he saw my face clearly, and the striding meteor came towards me, his face couldn’t help with joy: “Brother Bai, why are you here?”

I got off my horse and motioned for the guards to take back their swords. I was waiting for a good old relationship with Lu Lingjun. Unexpectedly, he hugged me as soon as he walked up and said happily, “I miss you so much.”

“…” At the next moment, I heard the sound of the sword flicking again behind me, and the jaw-dropping look of a soldier in front of me.

What I want to say is, Brother Lu, I am wearing men’s clothing at the moment, is it really appropriate to make such a move in the public.

Seeing my guards staring at him, Lu Ling waved his hands and smiled: “Relax, everyone, I am your master’s friend, she doesn’t mind, you don’t want to be too stingy.” Then he looked at me. , “Right Brother Bai?”

I smiled slightly and said, “Brother Lu, you embrace my soft cloth with this iron armor, have you considered how I feel?”

Jun Lu Ling immediately let go.

He couldn’t help but laughed at me, knowing that I was deliberately making fun of him, and he also stuck out his tongue and said, “Isn’t I seizing the opportunity? When I meet General Song, I’m afraid I won’t have this opportunity.”

Hearing his mention of Song Langsheng, I was overjoyed, “Is he in Zezhou City? Is he safe and sound? Is there any injury?”

Lu Ling Jundao: “Guess?”

I:”…”

He smiled hippiely and said: “Unless you say you came to me all the way, I will tell you.”

I was taken aback for a moment, then turned around and ordered the guard’s head: “A Shang, stab him!”

A Shang’s sword is naturally fast. Lu Lingjun easily avoided it after he turned around. He was three steps away from me with lingering fears. He patted his chest and said, “Princess, you are so stingy. You will kill you if you make a joke. “Seeing that I was smiling, he quickly said: “General Song is in Zezhou City, so I’ll take Brother Bai to see him.”

Although I haven’t figured out the situation right now, it seems that Song Langsheng has escaped the catastrophe smoothly.

From small to large, whenever I was in danger, I always made various worst plans rationally, so as to make myself psychologically prepared not to be easily overwhelmed. As a result, the follow-up was often worse than I thought. , The bad guys are always shameless and treacherous beyond imagination. When I had no hope in my life and abandoned myself to the prospects, I suddenly smashed such good news out of thin air. I actually felt that it was a little untrue, and I didn’t know why it was so erratic.

On the way, Mr. Lu Ling saw my desperate appearance, and shook his head: “You are so happy when you mention Lord Ma, why don’t you have any reaction at all when you see me? How can we be friends in adversity? Light friend?”

I squinted at him and said, “I said, Brother Lu, you are also a thousand households anyhow, why are you still so ignorant…”

Lu Lingjun said: “No, now I am a member of the deputy general barracks…”

“Promoted again? It seems that you did meritorious service this time in the canyon battle. What the **** is going on, tell me…”

Lord Lu Ling said mysteriously: “The princess should ask the greatest hero in person…”

The long night is silent, if it weren’t for Lu Lingjun’s seal, I’m afraid we wouldn’t be able to enter the city so smoothly.

As soon as he entered the city, Lu Lingjun put away his idle state, nodded with me, waved his horse’s rein and rushed to the barracks. I was a little surprised and didn’t ask too much, and he followed.

The streets of Zezhou City were empty at night, but after a while, we rushed to the barracks. Following him all the way unimpeded, it seems that Lu Lingjun is somewhat recognizable in the army. It’s been too long since I saw the consort, and the thought of meeting him again immediately made me feel a little upset, and I wished to show up in front of him out of thin air.

However, the facts always have some way out of imagination.

When Jun Lu Ling finished the announcement and took me into the camp, I saw several generals standing in the house. When they saw Jun Lu Ling brought me in, their expressions sank, “Who told you not to People who are relevant have been brought into the camp!”

Jun Lu Ling was waiting to explain, I walked closer and said, “General Zhao, General Wang, and General Li, can’t I recognize them after changing their outfits?”

The generals Zhao Qian, Wang Yi, and Li Sheng often met me in the middle of Beijing on weekdays. When they heard the voice, they saw me clearly and quickly bowed to salute. Zhao Gan first asked: “His Royal Highness, why are you here? State?”

“This princess came to visit the military affairs by your majesty’s order.” I took out the secret edict from my pocket and handed it to several generals. This secret edict was prepared by Jing Yan before I set off on the road. He told me if I could Arrived safely, it can at least keep me unobstructed in the barracks.

Several generals reverently returned the secret edict to me after reading it. I asked, “Why didn’t you see General Song?” Seeing them embarrassed, my heart sank, “Could it be that what happened to him?”

They led me into the back room, and I saw the boyfriend lying on the bed at a glance. Seeing him closed his eyes and his lips were pale, I was so frightened that I rushed to the cave to catch his breath. He just recovered a little bit of sanity, “What’s wrong with him?”

Zhao Gan said: “General Song was injured, but there is no life worry, but he has fallen asleep and has not regained consciousness.”

I lifted the quilt and found a thick bandage wrapped around his left rib. I remembered that Lu Lingjun mentioned Song Langsheng from time to time when he was just outside. It seemed that he was okay. How could this be the case? I concealed my trembling hand in my sleeve, and said, “In this way, you don’t want to let outsiders know about General Song’s injury? What happened these days?”

The three generals exchanged their eyes again, and Zhao Gan said, “This is a long story.”

It turned out that Song Langsheng and Huo Chuan discovered a cave in the side cliff of the Shili River Canyon long before the battle of Canyon Pass. The cave was covered with vines and Qiongzhi, which was extremely secret. The space is not small, and the shade is not humid. Song Langsheng thought this was a good place to store food. However, this is just an idea after all. How can food be stored in this barren land? Don’t even mention the enemy, that is, the birds and beasts will eat up the food first.

As soon as the rebels pressed the territory, the emperor’s military order came from the center of Beijing, ordering the army to lead the enemy to the canyon to attack and win. Huo Chuan was seriously injured and unconscious that day. Several generals were not optimistic about this strategy. After all, the Nie Guang we can think of is not necessarily Unexpectedly, if Tongguan couldn’t send troops for some reason, it would almost mean that the entire army would be wiped out. It means that you will not accept the fate of the foreign emperor, but the new emperor blatantly disobeyed the first order as soon as he took the throne, but he did not put the emperor’s prestige in his eyes. The emperor will remember them when he returns to the imperial city in the future. For one thing, Song Langsheng didn’t care, but the other generals were silent, lest they fall into the hatred of the ages.

When he was in a dilemma, Song Langsheng thought of the cave. If someone could take the risk and move the army ration there silently overnight, and stay in the cave to ensure that the ration would not be eaten by insects, ants, beasts, maybe this Confrontation can be an important part of reversing the situation.

This is an arduous task. The food keeper not only needs extremely high resilience and courage, but also needs to be prepared to die at any time. Whether on the way or in the cave, when the enemy receives a little wind, the result is self-evident.

Just as the generals were considering the candidates for the food, one person took the initiative to ask for it.

This person is exactly Lu Lingjun.

Lord Lu Ling lived up to expectations, and the general food was smoothly transported to the canyon cave. Then the key to the next step was the strategy of arranging the battle.

“Strategy?” I already understood this. “If you plan to prevent the enemy from sending troops to Tongguan from the beginning, then you have to borrow troops from Tongguan at the beginning.”

Zhao Gan nodded and said: “What the princess said is very true. If Tongguan refuses to send troops, only 50,000 soldiers and horses can stop the enemy’s attack. In this way, we borrowed another 50,000 fine horses from Tongguan.”

I said: “But the enemy’s main army has 300,000 troops. I thought that the rear army could reach as many as 100,000. Unexpectedly, there were 100,000 more troops than we thought. The 50,000 cavalry in Tongguan, combined with soldiers and horses, does not exceed 300,000. How did you finally win?”

Lu Lingjun smiled softly, “How did the princess know that our army won?”

I glanced at him, “If we lose, Zezhou must be in jeopardy at this moment. How can you still be in the mood to tell me the situation in detail here?”

Zhao Gan said: “General Song and the general led 150,000 elite soldiers to raid the enemy’s barracks. After fighting for a whole day, they deliberately let the enemy cut off our grain and grass and retreated into the Shili River Canyon.”

I have a lingering fear in my heart: “One hundred and fifty thousand against an army of three hundred thousand? You are crazy.”

Li Sheng interrupted and said: “General Zhao’s formation technique is exquisite. He was defeated deliberately. If you really want to fight in a **** fight, it is still unknown who will kill you.”

I took a look at the young general. It seemed that he admired Zhao Gan extremely. I smiled slightly: “In this way, you finally retreat all over? Even so, Nie Guang will not underestimate the enemy. They have already ruled you. Food and grass, it would be better to trap you in the Shili River Valley to wait for their rear army, and then catch them all at once, waiting for work, so you will fall into your trap.”

Li Sheng gave me a surprised look, and Zhao Gan nodded and said, “That’s it.”

Just when Nie Guang thought that our army horses were being forced into a dead end and struggling to death, Song Langsheng and Zhao Qian led everyone to share the food and recharge their energy and sleep a good night. After five days, Nie Guang It was a good time to attack in one fell swoop, but didn’t want Song Langsheng to bring the full blood of the full-fledged soldiers to resurrect and kill a carbine. At the same time, more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in Zezhou City also waited for Shuoyang’s rescuers. Although the local militias were uneven, they were finally overwhelming. In the end, Nie Guang scattered the army because of underestimation of the enemy and was defeated one by one by our army. With nearly half of his troops lost and killed, he could only retreat in a hurry.

It’s just that… in a disadvantaged situation, with 150,000 troops to break through the enemy’s main army, it was originally a gambling game. In this life-and-death battle, the rebel generals were ordered to besieged Song Langsheng with a thousand swords. Attacking him, he had two swords and one arrow in his body, and it was a blessing to be able to barely save his life and return to Zezhou.

I can imagine the cruelty and cruelty on the battlefield, but when I hear the process of escaping from death, I can still hear the trembling in my heart. Fortunately, he is still alive and he is still alive. This is the best for me. Thing.

Several generals were stunned when they heard me, but they didn’t know how to continue the words, or Jun Lu Ling knew what I wanted, and said, “The princess and Lord Ma’s have not reunited for a long time, so they don’t bother the princess to rest, subordinates Leave first.”

As soon as he said this, the other three generals realized it, and hurriedly said goodbye and retired. Finally, there were only two of us in the whole room.

Outside the window, the sky was dark, and the breeze was about to extinguish the candlelight. I saw his face pale and guessed that he was frozen. Thinking about this, I took off his coat and got into his bedding to warm him. I didn’t expect it. The bed of his seriously injured patient was so warm. I drove so many days on the road. I was really tired. When I closed my eyes, the soft layer struck, but it was just a tedious effort, so I hugged him and fell asleep. .

This time I slept till dawn.

I was awakened by the chirping chirps of birds. When I woke up, the sunrise hadn’t fully risen, and the sky was still bright. I rubbed my eyes, my mind was a little muddled, and I didn’t realize where I was for a while. Waiting to see the cohort who was still asleep in front of me, remembering that he had escaped from the dead, and I slept with him all night, and my heart was inexplicably settled.

When the mind returned, I propped up and looked down at his face. A small opening in my eyebrows was crusted. It should have been caused by the blade of the enemy on the battlefield. I felt distressed to caress his wounds. After touching it, I couldn’t help but touched his eyebrows, then to the bridge of his nose, and finally touched his mouth with my fingers somehow disobediently replaced by my lips.

Longing for too long, too long, lest there is a beautiful dream before me, I kissed him cautiously, but saw his eyebrows move slightly, I stopped blankly and saw him slowly open his eyes. His eyes were fluctuating, and I stared at him in a daze. There was no reaction for a moment. He woke up. The next moment, he folded his arms in his arms, and his body trembled slightly, “Atang…”

I was biting my lip and was about to speak when he suddenly said: “Don’t speak, every time you speak, you will disappear.”

I was stiff all over, and when I understood what he meant, I felt my eyes hot, and tears fell out of my eyes. He saw that I was crying and stretched out his hand to wipe away my tears. I heard my own choking voice: “Am I a crying ghost in my dream?”

Song Langsheng’s fingers flicked. He was almost completely stupid. After a while, he asked me softly: “Atang…really you?”

I raised my hand and wiped my tears, “Didn’t it mean that I will disappear as soon as I speak? If I don’t disappear, it means I am real.”

“You, why are you here? Do you know how dangerous it is?” He couldn’t help but scold me, but his arms around me became tighter. I was afraid that I would press his wound and push him out. A little bit, he groaned: “Say that I am dangerous? Who is the one who died all the time? If it weren’t for Lu Lingjun, Zhao Gan, and the others to talk to me, I can’t believe that when you are so brave, you can even ignore your life?”

He smiled slightly and stroked my hair, “I know I will be able to overcome this calamity. Since I have promised to go back and find you, I will never break my promise.”

I hugged him aggrievedly, “Anyway, I don’t want to leave you anymore, and I don’t want to pretend to be righteous anymore, I want you to be safe.”

He said softly: “Okay, I promise you. But you have to tell me what happened?”

I stayed for a while, “What’s the matter?”

He sighed: “You must have been wronged in your heart. Otherwise, why would you cry and cry when you see me?”

I stopped crying, looked at him quietly for a while, and said softly: “Punma, I…Father… Before I died, he told me a secret, and he told me my life experience…”

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, I felt his whole body stiff a little, and when I raised my eyes again, he looked the same as usual, “Life experience?”

“Yeah.” I nodded. “He told me…I’m not his biological daughter…”

I told my father and I slowly and clearly that day.

Those truths that make me awkward have been lingering in my heart. I feel like a bird that can’t find its own home, flying aimlessly in the vast sky, until I return to Song Langsheng’s side. I can get rid of all the shackles and burdens, cry unscrupulously, and tell him my sadness and sadness without any worries.

He would wipe my tears for me when I was crying hard, and pat my back when I couldn’t speak, as if the feathers of a bird were injured. Although it hurts, he was licked on the wound and itchy. , Warm, nothing makes me feel more at ease than him.

Speaking at the end, I sobbed: “So… I am not a princess at all, and even my mother-in-law does not recognize me. Now, I am alone…”

“Who said you are alone?” Song Langsheng nodded my nose, and a breezy voice brushed his ears, “You are my person.”

Feeling something violently moving in my chest, I nodded vigorously, thought about it, and felt wrong again, “Your lady is not a princess, and you won’t be a concierge in the future. Why are you like a okay person…”

He smiled, “It’s good if my lady is you, are you a princess, what is the difference to me?”

I lowered my head and said slowly: “However, the emperor said, the queen mother will not spare me, and I don’t want to be an enemy to them, I…cannot go back…”

Song Langsheng said: “Then I won’t go back.”

“what?”

He fixed me in his arms, “The general situation of this battle is set, Nie Guangqi will be exhausted, only to take advantage of the victory to chase, the world will be peaceful soon.”

He said: “At that time, I will carry you away and fly high, so that you will not be disturbed by these mundane things.”

—————————Second more——————– —————-

There is a person in this world who is connected with me, and knows what I am looking forward to without having to speak.

I stared at Song Langsheng in a daze, “The escaped princess and the escaped general, I’m afraid that after we fly away, there will be more mundane things to worry about.”

He smiled, “Anyway, if you marry you, you are destined to have no peace.”

I glanced at him, “Who, who said that. You see, you are still concerned about peace in the world, otherwise, we will leave immediately, and no one will find us.”

He was startled, “Do you want to elope with me now? That’s great too.” He straightened up and put on an outer robe to get out of bed, “You wait, I will pack my baggage.”

I hurriedly hugged his waist to prevent him from moving, “How can we leave quietly at this moment? Don’t mess up the military’s mind and let Nie Guang take advantage of it.”

Song Langsheng looked at me with a smile, and said leisurely: “So who is caring about peace in the world?”

I let go of my hand and turned away, “I won’t tell you anymore, I’m hungry, I’ll go eat.”

Good news always follows.

On the second day when Song Langsheng woke up, Huo Chuan, the long-lost general of Zhengnan, also woke up. For the three armies, the return of the two generals was more exciting than the 200,000 reinforcements from the imperial court. Now that the strength of the rebels has been greatly reduced, and our army is full of strength, several generals have agreed that they intend to send their troops with all their strength before the rebels have time to replenish their troops, and take advantage of the victories to pursue them and take the remaining party in one fell swoop.

Victory seems to be right in front of you. Everywhere in the barracks, you can feel the high morale of the soldiers. Oh, they heard that even my distinguished relatives of the emperor were sent by the emperor to fight against the rebels with the soldiers. Every time they saw me I respectfully salute me. I don’t know that I still have such prestige in the army, but Song Langsheng said indifferently: “This is not all thanks to your friend Lu Lingjun. He often talks about you in the army. Over time, those soldiers also believed it.”

I said: “What does it mean to believe that it is true, but I have the real ability, okay?”

Speaking of Lu Lingjun, after Song Langsheng heard that he hugged me under the eyes of everyone, he inadvertently asked Lu Xiaoshen, who was training on the school field, to practice Zha Ma stance until he returned. More than an hour later, when Song Langsheng said that he would take me to a nice noodle restaurant in Zezhou, I couldn’t help reminding him that Lu Lingjun was still on the school grounds. Only then did he remember the existence of Lu Lingjun. When he went to watch, Brother Lu was already sweating profusely. He watched Song Langsheng gritted his teeth and said: “Public revenge…”

Song Langsheng said leisurely: “To disturb the princess’s phoenix body, and punishing you with an hour’s horse step is considered as merciful. The military order is like a mountain. What’s your dissatisfaction?”

When Lu Lingjun heard this, he raised his head and glanced at me, and he couldn’t help asking, “So, if I take another hour, I will be able to disturb the princess’s phoenix body again?”

I:”…”

Song Langsheng: “I wanted to stop, but it seems unnecessary. Atang, let’s go and eat noodles.”

Lu Lingjun: “…”

Seeing that Song Langsheng had already taken a few steps away, I quietly retreated, patted Lu Lingjun on the shoulder, and said, “Don’t be angry, I will come back to secretly bring you wine tonight. You can just squat for a while and ignore him. “

At this moment Song Langsheng turned around impatiently to look at me, and I chased after him casually, wrapped his hand and said, “Here is here.”

He squinted at me, “Why, still reluctant to let him go?”

“You have such a small mind, he is so careless when he is my friend. If he really thinks about me, it is too late to avoid suspicion. Moreover, Brother Lu is something that can be made…”

Song Langsheng said: “Because he is a manufacturable material, but he doesn’t know how to constrain, he still follows his own temperament under the eyes of the public. If he doesn’t care about it, he will cause a catastrophe, and it will be too late.”

I nodded and smiled: “So you are for his good, not jealous…”

Song Lang said in his life, “I have never been jealous.”

I:”…”

On the night of the military camp, there is no such colorful and prosperous city as the people in the city. Some are often bonfires under the starry sky and bright moon, talking and laughing, and the soldiers unscrupulously drank and ate meat. Oh, the booze is gone. Tomorrow the army will send troops to attack the rebels. The war is imminent, and alcohol is forbidden in the army. However, it’s okay for Lu Lingjun to drink a little secretly. He didn’t accompany him in this battle. Song Langsheng arranged a hundred thousand elite soldiers to defend the city and let him stay and sit.

Not being able to go to battle to kill the enemy, this is more sad for Lu Lingjun than not letting him drink and eat meat. The other soldiers are playing wrestling and swords by the campfire. He is uncharacteristically alone, leaning against the tree and staring in a daze, I think The small hip flask sat next to him and handed it to him quietly, “Now, I haven’t said anything?”

He took it easily, opened the lid and smelled it, “Top grade?”

“That is, I bought it, can it be worse?”

He smiled slightly, put the jug aside, and sighed: “Brother Bai, do you think General Song and the others are very dissatisfied with me?”

“If you are not optimistic about you, why should you let you guard the city? You don’t want to think about it. Who stayed with you this time?” I pointed to my nose and said, “It’s me, Song Langsheng asked you to stay. To protect me is to trust your ability.”

Jun Lu Ling nodded and said, “What you said seems to have a little bit of truth…”

I said: “This time the attack on the enemy’s Korean army has the first opportunity. As long as there is no big difference, victory is inevitable. But defending the city is different. Zezhou and Tongguan are the most important lines of defense in Daqing. Defending it can guarantee it. We are invincible, you see, you don’t even know how to lose, and you have been fighting for so long.”

Lu Lingjun thought for a while, and his expression immediately widened, “Brother Bai, fortunately you told me, otherwise I would have to hate the cohort.”

He was able to believe all the nonsense that I said casually. It seems that Song Langsheng was right. He needs more experience before he can take on the important task. I looked at him with my cheek supported, and suddenly remembered a question, so I asked him: “Brother Lu, have been fighting for so long, do you know whether Nie Ran has personally led his troops to fight?”

“I don’t seem to have heard… he is not the heir of the former dynasty. How can the noble body Nie Guang be willing to let him show up? If he accidentally cut off one hand and one foot, wouldn’t he be defeated?” Lu Lingjun Weiwei Tilt his head, “Why did you ask him?”

I said, “It’s okay, I just think it’s weird. It stands to reason… He needs to be majestic to get twice the result with half the effort. With such a passive combat attitude, there is no rebellious spirit at all, isn’t it?”

Lu Lingjun squinted, “Why do I sound a little weird to you? You care about him so much, do your family members know?”

I stepped on the tip of his shoe and said, “Who cares about him pulling? I just care about the battle and the enemy. However, if I ask you, you are not allowed to tell…”

A faint, weak voice came from behind, “Who didn’t you tell?”

I patted Lu Lingjun on the shoulder and said, “Tonight I talked about my ideals in life with Brother Lu. I have gained a lot. I have to digest it again and say goodbye…” After that, I immediately ran forward and just took a step. I was pulled into my arms by the collar with one hand, and I turned my head and looked at Song Langsheng without changing my face and said, “Come on, why are you here? What a coincidence.”

Song Langsheng smiled slightly, “What do you mean?”

At this time, Lu Lingjun had disappeared in a moment, I smiled and coughed, “I thought you were still discussing with General Huo and the others about the expedition…”

He stared at me for a long time, and saw my head bowed, and sighed helplessly: “You, you, I really don’t worry about leaving you in Zezhou…”

I was overjoyed: “Is that willing to take me to the battlefield?”

“…You want to be beautiful.”

I spread my hands and said, “It’s more than enough to defend a city with 10,000 soldiers. You have 100,000 people left. Even if there are 500,000 enemy troops to siege the city and play wheel warfare, it will take ten days and eight days to take down the city at the fastest. …Can Nie Guang give birth to a new group of troops out of thin air? You, just think about it, besides, who am I? I am not inferior to ordinary generals when it comes to reading military law and military books. I am here, Zezhou Although the city will be a golden soup, you can rest assured.”

He took my shoulders and said: “If there is any accident, you will immediately order someone to send you away overnight. I don’t want Zezhou to be solid, I only want you to be safe.”

I shook his arm, “Well, I promise you, it must be good, you also promise me.”

He rubbed my hair and looked down at me, “When I return, he will hand in hand with you to the end of the world.”

When the army went out again, I stood in line with Lu Lingjun on the wall and looked far away, with flags flying. When Lu Ling saw me reluctant to give up, he couldn’t help asking me why he couldn’t bear it, but he didn’t stop him. Keep.

I leaned against the wall, blocking the dazzling sun with my hand, “Sometimes, when people live, they can’t always live for their own desires, can they?”

Ten days later, Zezhou received a military report from the front. Huo Chuan and Song Langsheng led all the way to attack Huguang, the Japanese soldiers and horses fought ingeniously, broke through the enemy’s defense line and arrived in Guiyang. The two sides fought **** days and finally defeated the Nie family army, regained Guizhou, and captured 58,000 enemies. May.

Nie Guang lingered, and retreated from the battle. The morale of the counter-insurgency army was soaring, and the momentum was like a broken bamboo, all the way south.

Lu Lingjun smiled and said, “It seems that the day when the princess and the consort will see each other again is near.”

I should be overjoyed when I heard the good news, but if so, I still feel a little uneasy in my heart. Nie Guang is a cunning and cunning man, is it true that he won’t have any other players? For the sake of safety, I ordered the Mingjian Division to conduct detailed investigations, but all clues must be reported, but I didn’t want to. I really got a terrible piece of information.

Enemy troops bypassed the Taihang Mountains and gathered in Lingchuan to form naval forces, intending to break through the canal defense line by surprise. If they were allowed to cross the Yangtze River forcibly, the rebels would most likely go straight to the capital!

Lu Lingjun asked me with a pale face: “How many navy does the enemy have?”

I closed my eyes and rubbed my forehead and said, “At least 200,000…but the main army of the fifth and three thousand battalions have all joined Huo Chuan’s south. If the Habayashi and Huben teams in the capital want to stop the enemy, it will be a **** battle…”

Jun Lu Ling knocked on the table angrily, “Sure enough, he is a sinister! But, Nie Guang is defeated in Guiyang, who is the commander of the rebel navy?”

I sighed and placed the secret letter on the table, “Nie Ran.”

In the past six months or so, Nie Guang led his army to attack the north one after another, forcing the court to dispatch most of its troops to fight against it. This was Nie Guang’s first move. It would be great if he could win. If he was defeated in the end, they would at least draw the most elite troops of our army away from the imperial city.

And the next step is to let Nie Ran, who had been dormant for a long time, lead the army to attack. They cut off the waterway hub and delayed the news. When the capital heard the news, I was afraid that Nie Ran’s army was approaching step by step, and the various commanders would dispatch places. The army is already extremely dangerous.

This army is the most important move in the enemy’s entire plan!

The wind opened the doors and windows, I walked to the window, looking at the distant mountains, the mountain roads are like a long life, I thought for a long time, looked back at Lu Lingjun, “The nearest place to Lingchuan is Zezhou and Shuo The sun is over. The only way to stop Nie Ran today is to block the way of Huo Chuan’s army before they rush back…”

Lu Lingjun looked up suddenly, and he understood what I meant, “Today the north wind is strong, they can’t cross the river… If you can go overnight, I should be able to rush to Lingchuan before dawn, I will immediately…”

“Brother Lu…” My eyes slowly blurred, “We only have one hundred thousand soldiers and horses, but the enemy has two hundred thousand… In this case, only the entire army is wiped out and there is no way out…”

“Yeah.” He turned to hold the sword on the table, and then knelt down on one knee, “Subordinates, make sure to live up to the mission, take more time for the emperor and the princess, and annihilate the rebellion in one fell swoop!”

My heart felt like being pierced by a thousand needles, ten fingers pinched tightly, “Mr Lu Ling, in fact, if you…”

“Princess.” Lu Lingjun stood up again and smiled at me, “You said that a person cannot always live for his own selfish desires, right?”

Is it?

I can’t answer.

It’s just that after Monarch Lu Ling led the troops out of the city, I asked myself over and over again, is it possible that the life of the emperor is life, isn’t the life of the one hundred thousand mysterious iron army? When soldiers sacrificed their lives in order to protect the territories, did those in the upper rank sacrifice themselves for the people of the world?

Xiao Qitang, Xiao Qitang, even you, when you learn about your life experience, want to abandon all responsibilities and live your own happy life. What right do you have to blame?

The night is too thick to turn away, this night, there is no star or moon, no one in the army sleeps peacefully.

Before dawn the next day, the sound of a continuous bugle came from outside, so abrupt, it made people confused.

When I hurriedly rushed to the tower, the soldiers guarding the city ran out in unison. I stood on the city wall and looked out, but I saw a fast horse galloping towards the city, far away across the moat. He yelled: “Visiting Sun Pingbao from the Chinese Military Camp! A brigade from Anyang is coming to Zezhou! It looks like a Liangguo iron rider!”

Someone on the city wall panicked, “Liang? Isn’t Liang and us a country of friendship? How can Liang’s army come?”

I stared at the endless mountains in the distance, dark clouds covering the sky, black shadows approaching from far away, and people who were pressing couldn’t breathe.

If you don’t give anything away, you don’t have internal worries, there must be external troubles.

This time, both internal and external troubles came, but Zezhou’s defenders were very few.
