Brothers who lived and died in the army in the past are now turned into a handful of loess.
Carrying the wine jar, Lin Wanyue jumped off the horse's back and looked at the rolling loess mounds. All buried here are the souls of heroes who died in battle in the north.
Yu Wan died of dystocia, and he couldn't be buried here. Thanks to Li Mu's compassion, and Lin Wanyue's resistance to all opinions, the husband and wife had to live together in the end.
The west wind was howling, and the person who was blowing couldn't open his eyes. Lin Wanyue came to Lin Yu's grave. This graveyard was regularly taken care of, and it was not too desolate.
Lin Wanyue touched the tombstones of Lin Yu and Yu Wan, sat next to them, and said softly, "Ayu, Yu Wan, I'm here to see you."
After patting the Kaifeng clay, Lin Wanyue toasted the two of them and took a big mouthful.
The grave fell into silence again, Lin Wanyue sat in front of the grave in a daze, took a few sips to himself, and continued: "Bai Shui is very good, now it can be called, the outline is like A Yu, the eyebrows are like Yu Wan , Your Majesty has given Baishui a golden book and a jade ultimatum to officially designate her as the county master. You can rest assured that I will raise Baishui well. When one day she is sensible and can deal with life and death correctly, I will tell her everything. …”
"Crash!" Lin Wanyue flipped her wrist, poured two shares of wine in front of the grave, and took a gulp.
The turbid wine overflowed the corner of Lin Wanyue's mouth and dripped down her chin. Lin Wanyue didn't care, letting the turbid wine wet the front of her chest.
"Ayu, you're also an unlucky kid. You used to call me all day long to build a career and make a career with me! Now I have a handsome seal, you lie here, you..."
Lin Wanyue's voice was trembling, she closed her eyes and gave herself a big mouthful. It took a long time to calm down before she said, "I'll help you hide it from Father Lin, fortunately, his legs and feet are not good, and there is nothing to see you. I will send a message to the old man every once in a while. He is still looking forward to the end of the war. You take a family leave and take Yu Wan home to see him. You, you, you stinky boy, He has been throwing the mess to me. I plan to hide it for another two years, and find an opportunity to take him to the capital for the elderly... Ayu, didn't we agree to make achievements together? Ayu, I also count on you to help me bring the board back to Chanjuan The old site of the village was burnt down, how did you…”
"Yu Wan has told you about my affairs, right? I'm sorry, I've been keeping secrets with you as brothers, don't blame me!"
…
"By the way, I forgot to tell you a happy event. I have become a concubine and married the eldest princess. If you are still here? Do you think I am a monster? Hehe..."
…
"Awan, I know everything about you. I don't blame you. Thank you for keeping the secret for me. You will always be Lin Wanyue's best friend."
…
Lin Wanyue would drink a few big gulps every time she poured out two shares, and then said a few words to the cold tombstone. She didn't get up until the two jars of wine were empty, and patted the weeds and dust off her body: "I Let’s go, there is a tough battle to fight for a while now, and I’ll see you again in a few days… If you meet people from Chanjuan Village, please help me tell them that I have fulfilled the oath made by the head of the village, please rest in peace.”
Lin Wanyue strode to Long Ran's side, got on the horse, and pulled the reins. Before leaving, she couldn't help but look back. The tombstone was no longer clear, and all she could see were rolling mounds. The best brothers and friends are buried here.
Back in Yangguan City, everything was business as usual. The Huns didn't come. Lin Wanyue changed clothes and went straight to King Yong's mourning hall. The coffin would be parked in the north for three days, and then Li Xian would personally escort him back to Beijing.
Entering the mourning hall, only a few palace maids knelt in front of the mourning and burned paper, but Li Xian and Xiaoci were not seen.
Lin Wanyue took a handful of paper money and threw it into the brazier, and asked one of the palace maids, "Where's the princess?"
"Back to the concubine, the slaves don't know."
Lin Wanyue nodded her head and did not ask any further questions. When she returned to the handsome mansion, Li Xian did not come back.
…
On the third day, Li Xian was supposed to bring King Yong's coffin back to Beijing, but war came.
The sound of the bullhorn resounded through Yangguan City, and the scouts in front responded without stopping: "The Hun army in front is less than a hundred miles away from Yangguan City."
When Lin Wanyue heard the news, she immediately ordered someone to tell Li Xian not to leave the city for the time being, and immediately climbed up the city wall of Yangguan City.
The drums were beaten, and the whole army stood by.
Lin Wanyue stood on the city wall overlooking the distance, with Bai Ruida and An Chengbi two lieutenants standing beside her.
After a while, Lin Wanyue's heart sank, like the sound of thunderous horse hooves coming from afar, and the Huns actually gathered so many troops.
"Rui Da, Chengbi, what do you hear?"
The experienced An Chengbi was the first to say: "The Huns have more than 100,000 cavalry."
Lin Wanyue nodded, An Chengbi's inference was similar to hers.
Bai Ruida asked seriously, "Master, what are you going to do?"
"Notify Feiyu Battalion to go up to the wall, and all cavalry with bows to come up."
"Yes!"
"Master... Are you here, are you going to stick to it?"
"That's right, the Huns just killed the Northland coach, and their momentum is fierce. Now the assembled army is coming, and our army's morale has not yet recovered. It's hard to say whether this battle will be won or lost. I plan to defend it."
When all the archers on the city wall were in place and ready to go, something strange happened!
The originally aggressive Xiongnu cavalry slowed down their advance and stopped outside the range of their bows and arrows.
"Master! This is... "
Lin Wanyue looked down from the gap in the wall pier, frowned, and signaled the archer to take it easy.
She also couldn't see what the name of the Huns were. Li Guo's archers were condescending, and the Huns' cavalry had been hiding so far, it was impossible for them to hurt Yangguan City in the slightest.
"The whole army is on standby! Let me see what the Huns are going to do!"
"Yes!"
The Xiongnu cavalry gathered at the bottom of the city.
Time passed, and suddenly there was a commotion in the Xiongnu team, Lin Wanyue pressed her hands on the wall pier, leaned on her body, looked forward, and said in shock: "Send the order immediately, all the soldiers in the city retreat a hundred steps, and form a formation. Disperse! The archers obey the orders and rely on the wall to cover themselves, hurry up! Anyone who can pull away more than two stone bows, prepare! Bring my three stone bows!"
The semaphore quickly conveyed the commander's order, and a rumbling sound came from the city. Bai Ruida had never heard such a panicked tone from Lin Feixing. Said: "Catapult! How is it possible!?"
Lin Wanyue looked ugly, took the three cross bows that Du Yushu handed over, and hid her body completely behind the stone pier. The Huns did not have catapults! Because all the Xiongnu troops could not use such siege weapons! This catapult is probably specially prepared to deal with the departure of the country!
"Bian Kai!" Lin Wanyue yelled.
Bian Kai cat quickly came to Lin Feixing's side: "Master!"
"Bian Kai, see if the Huns have pushed the siege wood and ladder!"
"Yes!"
Bian Kai, who has extraordinary eyesight, lay on the city pier and looked out, jumped down neatly from the top, and returned: "Master Hui, there are four catapults in total, but there is no siege wood or ladder!"
Hearing Bian Kai's report, Lin Wanyue heaved a sigh of relief.
Immediately, he ordered: "Archers with two crossbows and above are ready!"
"Yes!"
Lin Wanyue also dodged and stood at the gap in the city pier, holding a bow and arrow.
"Master!" Bai Ruida was so frightened when he saw Lin Feixing like this, that catapult was no joke, once it was hit, there was absolutely no chance of survival!
"Bring the big shield!"
"Yes!"
Bai Ruida threw down the weapon, picked up the big shield with both hands, and stood by Lin Feixing's side.
"All listen to the order, aim at the catapult!"
"Yes!"
"Fire arrows!"
Lin Wanyue gave an order, and dozens of Ershibow archers shot arrows.
It's a pity that the catapult is still far away. Except for Lin Wanyue's three crossbows, which successfully hit a Huns pushing a cart, the others only hit the Huns in the front row.
The Huns at the bottom were also in chaos. They didn't expect that someone could shoot at them after trying to escape so far!
This is also due to the training methods that Lin Feixing provided to the Feiyu Camp system before. After a long period of training, there are already dozens of people in the Feiyu Battalion who can pull the Ershibow!
The Xiongnu cavalry rioted for a while, and Tutulba, who was temporarily in command, shouted angrily and ordered the soldiers not to riot.
Unfortunately, not all of the Xiongnu were soldiers of the Maodun Department, and the effect was minimal.
"Fire arrows!"
Dozens of arrows shot through the air again, and Lin Wanyue shot another Huns who pushed the sling, while others shot down some of the Huns in the front row.
Lin Wanyue was very anxious, because after she found out that the soldiers who pushed the catapults were shot dead, other Huns jumped off their horses and automatically made up for them. The four catapults were still moving forward slowly, and they could Stone cast!
On the Xiongnu side, as the new Xiongnu cavalry fell off their horses, a greater disturbance was aroused.
Just when Tuturba's warrior coercion didn't work, a masked man standing beside Tuturba shouted loudly, "Don't panic, warriors, they only have dozens of people who can shoot here. , you are the goshawks on the grassland, are you still afraid of the dark arrows of the lambs from the country!"
Du Yushu immediately translated Lin Feixing, fine beads of sweat oozing out of Lin Wanyue's forehead, there are indeed experts in the Xiongnu tribe!
"Rida, have the soldiers under the city dispersed?"
"Don't worry, Commander, it's all scattered!"
"Send a team to protect the princess!"
"Yes!"
Lin Wanyue raised her cheeks high, and the archers kept firing arrows. As the catapult got closer and closer, those archers with two crossbows could also shoot at the Huns who pushed the catapult.
But just like just now, every time a Huns fell, other Huns willingly made up for it. In the blink of an eye, many Huns had fallen along the trajectory of the catapult, but the catapult was still slowly moving. moving forward...
The author has something to say: Hey, within three days, Lin Wanyue will reveal her identity, and the plot will explode.
Praise me, I don't care~
