Views:

In order to speed up, only Ling Qingyu was left in the carriage, and there were only thirteen people driving the carriage. There were no extra items in the carriage, except medicine and some clothes. The four horses ran much faster.

Shiliuye and Sum Xie Saburo also rode behind, which made Ling Qingyu very depressed. When did these children learn to ride a horse? Why is it that I can't

The team did not go to the post station to rest after they got on the official road, but camped directly by the roadside in the middle of the night.

Seeing the children cuddling together and sleeping on the floor, the night was still a bit chilly, Ling Qingyu was a little worried, so she took a blanket and prepared to cover them.

"If you can't stand these things, you don't have to follow us anymore." Yan Qi said calmly beside her.

Ling Qingyu was stunned, and Ying Shisan smiled beside him: "When we were this old, even food had to be robbed by murder, and it would be nice to have some clothes to wear."

Sure enough, the method of education is different? Ling Qingyu was dumbfounded, but she also knew that if these children were to become strong in this world, they would have to undergo rigorous training.

"The head of the house." Ye Po rubbed his eyes and sat up, seeing the blanket in Ling Qingyu's hand and the disapproving expression of Yan Qiying Shisan beside him, he got up and said: "We are fine, head of the house, you go to rest .”

The children who are only thirteen years old are already a little taller than themselves. Ling Qingyu looked at Ye Po in front of him and sighed in his heart. These children took them with them every day in the past few years, and then they were basically imprisoned in Fengshen Island for training. After seeing each other for so long, I have grown up a lot. For example, this Ye Po, when I met him in Haizhou, he was small and thin, only skin and bones were left, and there seemed to be only a pair of eyes on his face. Big eyes, it looks like that Somali refugee is about the same. Looking at this height now, I am afraid that it will be no problem to gain 180 centimeters in the future, but the rare determination in those eyes has not changed until now .

"Well, eat more meat." Ling Qingyu sighed and raised his hand to rub his head, but his height was not so easy to touch, and he was about to let go, but Ye Po squatted down by himself, so Ling Qingyu naturally He rubbed his head and smiled.

Seeing Ye Po, Ling Qingyu naturally thought of that other genius, Ye Fei. Turning his head to look, he saw a boy standing up next to him. This boy was not tall, and was half a head shorter than her. He had a round face with cute The dimples, the fan-like eyelashes on the two big eyes are blinking, looking very gratifying.

The young man took a step forward, pulled Ling Qingyu's clothes, raised his head and called out: "Master, Ye Fei eats meat." Even if you eat meat, you won't grow tall.

"Well, you have to eat more." Ling Qingyu pinched his face, well, it's still just as comfortable.

"The head of the house should go to rest." Ye Po said softly, and at the same time pulled Ye Fei.

Ling Qingyu rubbed Ye Fei's head, smiled, took the blanket and went back to sleep in the car.

"It's late at night, and the head of the house is no better than us, and the rest is too much to eat." Seeing that Ye Fei still looked reluctant, Ye Po pulled him and said in a low voice.

"But, I want to talk to the head of the house." Ye Fei sat down, hugged her legs and said. Ever since they came, Yan Qi watched them practice so much that they couldn't even enter the yard of the head of the family. Later, the head of the house simply went to Wutai Mountain. After returning, there were many things. After such a long time, he had a lot to say The head of the family said.

"Let's wait a while, the head of the house is in a bad mood now, let's not annoy her." Ye Po lay down on the ground and said in a low voice.

"Po, don't you want to talk to the boss?" Ye Fei asked, pulling the corner of Ye Po's clothes.

"I just want to see her." Ye Po pulled Ye Fei down and said softly, "Stop talking, go to sleep."

Yan Qi held the small cloth bag Ling Qingyu gave her in her hand, and sat on the roof of the carriage. Hearing that the two were silent again, she rubbed the cloth bag in her hand and put it back to her chest. Let's take another look, let's take another look. .

"Cleaned up?" Yang Zhao asked with a flick of his waist knife, shaking off a thread of blood.

"It's all cleaned up." Meng Su returned the waist knife to its sheath, glanced at the scattered corpses in the desert, and replied.

"The ordnance of the security army has been left behind, general, this is already the third patrol of party members, is it too dense?" Du Ming rode over and asked.

"The whole army speeds up, cross this wasteland before dawn and let's go from Qinglong Mountain." Yang Zhao put his foot on the belly of the horse and rode forward. As his speed became faster and faster, the troops behind also began to gather quickly. keep up.

At dawn, a gleam of light appeared on the horizon, dyeing the cloud into a bright golden red, and reflected the silhouettes of the large cavalry galloping in the desert.

After crossing the Qinglong Mountain, there is a piece of loess hills. Du Ming has already sent spies to find out the way. A large group of people galloped between the ditches and trails. The horses couldn't untie their saddles and people couldn't get off their horses. After a day and a night, they arrived at the bank of the Yellow River.

Asking the army to rest on the spot and tie a sheepskin raft, Yang Zhao and Meng Su Duming went to the high ground.

The Yellow River circles a bay here, with mountains on both sides and relatively fast currents, so there is no defense in the two countries around this area.

"Go into the water a little upstream, float over there, and gather at a place downstream." Du Ming pointed down.

Yang Zhao nodded and said, "Every team should take good care of the people themselves, and don't get separated."

"General, do we want to take down the central defender this time?" Meng Su knelt down, grabbed a handful of sand, and asked.

Yang Zhao shook his head and said, "No, even if we win, we won't be able to take it back." After all, this team is shady, even if the party's army is assembled and goes to Shuozhou now, once it returns to defense, it will only rely on 10,000 people It cannot be held.

"The Spy News left 5,000 troops to defend Jingyuan. From this section to Lanzhou, there are only 20,000 troops in total. Let's sweep this section, and then let the army of Dazhou Town besiege from this area. We can take back the area of Huizhou, and the rest is how the Zhenrong Army can defend it." Yang Zhao also squatted on the ground, and simply drew a topographic map on the sand, saying.

"Will the Zhenrong Army's Wudang Kungfu be guarded?" Du Ming also squatted down and asked.

"Yes, Han Bian will tell him that half of the silver mine in Baiyin Mountain will be shared with him." Yang Zhao said with a cold smile, "Wudang Kung Fu can do anything for money, not to mention this free military merit."

"But it's a bit of a loss to give him half of the money for nothing?" Meng Su said.

There was a smile on the corner of Yang Zhao's mouth, and he said, "It's okay, Qing Yu said that although there is silver here, it is far better than her silver mines in America. What she wants is the open-pit copper mines here."

"The head of the family seems to know everything, it's too powerful." Du Ming sighed and said.

Yang Zhao smiled slightly, stood up, and looked at the endlessly surging water of the Yellow River. He didn't want to ask where Ling Qingyu came from, as long as she was by his side now.

At dusk, hundreds of large sheepskin rafts had been made. The first group of people to cross the river, led by Meng Su, went upstream for a hundred meters before pushing the raft down the river and rowing diagonally to the opposite bank.

This time, in addition to the original 10,000 people from Heishuiguan, Meng Su also brought 2,000 locally recruited border residents. Meng Su selected people who had paddled the raft on the Yellow River to be rowers. Quietly cut out to the opposite bank, and drifted for more than 300 meters to the opposite bank.

Seeing that the people on the other side have landed safely, the people on this side also started to prepare for the second team, and the rafts were taken to a place upstream and drifted over again.

As night falls, the moon rises. Tonight the wind is light and the clouds are light, and the moonlight is bright. The moonlight with some brilliance illuminates the sheepskin rafts densely covering the river surface, covering the dense but quiet scene. A mysterious color.

After crossing the Yellow River, there was another desert. Yang Zhao ordered the team to take a rest, and after breakfast, they headed straight for Jingyuan.

It was nearly dusk when Ling Qingyu and his group arrived in Jingyuan County. Seeing that Jingyuan County was still quiet, they estimated that Yang Zhao's army had not yet started attacking, so they went to the inn to meet Han Bian.

As soon as Ling Qingyu entered the inn, Yan Qi said to Ying Jiu: "Jiu, you should cross the river immediately to meet Ling Yunfei and take Shiliuye with you." Turning around and looking at the boys behind, he said: "Follow Hao Ying Nine, this battle is your first battle, remember what the third master taught you in the past."

"Yes!" The sixteen teenagers responded in unison.

"Let's go first." Ying Jiu said, turned his horse's head and headed for the ferry, followed by Sixteen Nights Sum Xie Sanlang.

Across the Yellow River, on one side is Dazhou's Jingyuan County, and on the other is Dangxiang's Huizhou County, Ling Yunfei and more than a hundred martial arts practitioners are eating in the inn.

"Hero Ling, I heard that the Devil's Cult has a large number of people, we people," Dai Qingyun asked after looking at the enthusiastic atmosphere of the men in the lobby, "Is it okay?"

"Are you scared?" Ling Yunfei said while holding the wine bowl and squinting at him.

"Afraid?" Dai Qingyun snorted, put his feet on the bench, and said, "When have you ever seen me afraid? Isn't it just a few demon sects? I was thinking, can you give me the money first, if If something happens to us, it can be regarded as an explanation to the mother-in-law."

"The money has already been given, you can ask your elder brother." Li Youbo sat next to Ling Yunfei and said.

"Really?" Dai Qingyun looked happy, stood up and asked a table of people who were eating meat and drinking, "Brother, did you get the money?"

"Well, I have asked Lao Qi to send it back." Hu Yan said.

"Liuyunzhai came out in full force this time, and all the masters are here, so the Ling family has a lot of face." Dai Qingyun sighed.

"One thousand taels of silver per person, how many people can afford this price?" Hu Yan glanced at him, and said: "We in the Central Plains martial arts have always said to destroy the demon sect, but at most the demon sect went to the Central Plains." Kill one or two when wandering around. I don’t know how many people are taken away by that Yaoyue every year. How many dare to call for revenge? Then Yan San, I respect him! Now it seems that Yan San’s kind People who fight to the death are not simple people."

"That's right!" Dai Qingyun's eyes lit up, and he said, "If you can fight against more than two hundred people from those so-called famous sects by yourself, and they will not retreat, I heard that they were killed by him all over the place. I, Dai Qingyun, admire him!"

"It's a pity, that bald donkey Kongwu always likes to flaunt himself as an upright person to meddle in his own affairs. After doing this kind of thing this time, he actually went to retreat and regretted it. It's really hateful!" Heifengzhai on the side said humanely.

"That old thief Kong Wu is bald. I heard that before he went in, he said that he was waiting for the people of the Ling family to challenge him for revenge. After three years of retreat, he didn't know how high his martial arts are. How many of them can beat him? It's like farting." Dai Qingyun snorted.

Ling Yunfei glanced at Ye Shiyi and Lu Yao who had been sitting silently at the table, and chuckled.

In order to speed up, only Ling Qingyu was left in the carriage, and there were only thirteen people driving the carriage. There were no extra items in the carriage, except medicine and some clothes. The four horses ran much faster.
