This team, once abandoned by Yan Xun in Zhenhuang City, suddenly became the public enemy of the entire empire, and everyone wanted to be a hero to eradicate the traitors. Along the way, Chu Qiao and the others encountered surprise attacks, countless times.
"Girl," He Xiao ran over cautiously, and whispered in Chu Qiao's ear, "The spy camp is coming, give an order!"
Chu Qiao lowered her head and said calmly, "Wait a little longer."
"Girl, it's less than two hundred steps away."
"Wait a little longer."
"If we wait any longer, our lurking will lose its meaning."
"The time has not yet come."
He Xiao wanted to say more, when a red and white military flag suddenly stood up in the trench in the distance, Chu Qiao raised her eyebrows, and shouted sharply: "Do it!"
In an instant, the shouts shook the sky, and thousands of blades rushed out of the trenches, and the scouts who approached hurriedly fell into a terrible siege.
Another unsuspecting kill. Chu Qiao's precise calculations, precise timing, and perfect layout of the formation smashed the enemies who rashly stepped into the encirclement to pieces. Within half an hour, the battle was over. It was too late to get rid of the fleeing enemy troops in all directions, Chu Qiao waved his battle flag, and with the remaining 4,000 officers and soldiers of the Southwest Town Government, he charged at the largest conscripting army with all his strength!
After four days of dodging and fleeing like bereaved dogs, the officers and soldiers of the Southwest Town Government who personally destroyed the capital of Great Xia, finally let go of their hands and feet, and roared loudly on the land of Qiupingshan Plain!
There is a light rain in the sky. Chu Qiao wiped the rain from her face. She had a pale and thin face. Sitting on the horseback, she put the sword back into the scabbard with a swish, and said firmly, "Soldiers, we withdraw."
There was a sudden panic in the crowd. A huge victory in one night made these soldiers who had been chased and beaten for four consecutive days very happy, and the idea of wanting to avenge their shame and revenge has penetrated into everyone's mind. In the eyes of everyone, it is unwise to withdraw troops at such a good time. But their gratitude and respect for the woman in front of them prevented them from saying anything, but those eyes clearly showed their disapproval.
"I know what you're thinking." The girl cleared her throat and said loudly, "The empire is in turmoil, and the forces in all directions are about to move. It's a great time for a good man to start the world. We are as powerful as a rainbow, and our blades are sharp. We shouldn't be here It's a great time to give up the battle situation that is at your fingertips. But, is the situation really what we see before our eyes? No, no! The empire still has a large number of family tribes, a large number of guarding vassal kings, and a large number of loyal troops. They Maybe we haven't come here to defend the country for the time being, but that's just now, once we defeat the armed forces of the Zhao family, we will become the public enemies of the entire Great Xia. We have run out of ammunition and food, no replacement clothes, no spare horses, no medicines and food, How long can we last by fighting, raising, burning, killing and looting? Once we show fatigue, the enemy will bite like a mad dog. No matter how ferocious a lion is when it is tired, it can't beat a group of vicious dogs. We are enough, we are tired, We should go back."
In the crowd, someone suddenly sobbed softly, and someone seemed to be afraid of getting an affirmative answer, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness has given up on us."
"Yes, girl, we're homeless."
"We are traitors to the empire and outcasts of Yanbei, where should we go?"
"Don't believe the silly and absurd rumors!" Chu Qiao snarled, and said in a serious voice, "Those are all plots to separate us from Yanbei, Your Highness has not abandoned you, and the king of Yanbei will never abandon his son. civil!"
"However, His Highness didn't take us away, but left us in the encirclement. Each of us can see clearly."
"No! His Highness didn't leave you alone, he sent me to rescue you."
"Your Highness only sent one person to rescue us?"
Chu Qiao raised her eyebrows, and said decisively: "But I did it, I rescued you, His Highness believed that I could do it, so he entrusted it to me, without a doubt!"
The whole audience was silent. Although things were a bit difficult to understand, they were true. This petite girl rescued 4,000 officers and soldiers of the Southwest Township Emissary by herself, and led them to smash the encirclement and interception of the enemy, break out of the encirclement, and escape to heaven.
"Soldiers, don't hesitate any longer. Now, let us bury the bodies of our comrades-in-arms, and then leave this place with their dreams. You shed your blood, defended your homeland, and history will remember your loyalty. Now, please come back with me !"
After Chu Qiao finished speaking in a deep voice, she suddenly lowered her head and bowed deeply to the four thousand officers and soldiers. A head of hair slid down from both sides, like two graceful waterfalls.
Everyone stood silently, and three seconds later, everyone knelt down on one knee and shouted in unison: "I am willing to follow the girl!"
On that day, the smell of blood on the Qiuping Mountain Plain spread far away, and the low shouts of the soldiers were like howling winds on the grassland. Perhaps they didn't know that the army they had just wiped out was not a conscript army chasing the Southwest Township's envoy, but a revenge army formed by Zhao Yang and eleven Northwest clans to attack Yanbei's rear. They have made complete preparations, prepared sufficient food and grass, recruited a large number of grain transporters, studied the terrain of Yanbei in detail, found the best guides, and even the local spies were ready. As soon as the main force of the army arrives, the battle will begin. Since Yan Xun has not returned to Yanbei to gain a firm foothold, there is a 70% chance of winning this battle.
However, everything failed because of Chu Qiao's appearance. When Zhao Yang heard the news, the young prince did not speak for a long time. He thought of that fiery night, the figure standing on the city tower, slender but tall and straight, like a tenacious flagpole.
"Your Highness, there is no hope of entering Yanbei, do you want to get rid of this sneak attacking army?"
Zhao Yang lowered his head, thought for a long time, and finally said calmly: "The big fish are gone, why do you need small shrimps?" The young prince stood up at once, "Go back to Yundu!"
At this moment, on the other cliff slope in Ximaliang, there was a camp quietly standing. In front of the main tent, there was a dark iron eagle flag.
Miss Yu opened the curtain of the tent and walked in. Before she could speak, she heard a man's irritated voice from inside, "Didn't I tell you not to come in again?"
Miss Yu froze for a moment, stopped in her tracks, and then said softly, "Young master, it's me."
Yan Xun immediately turned around, saw Miss Yu hurriedly stepped forward, said in a deep voice, "So it's a girl, Yan Xun was rude."
"Young Master, you are being polite." Miss Yu smiled faintly, "Ah Jing came here just now?"
Yan Xun nodded, but didn't speak, looking quite bored.
"Your Highness, it has been ten days, we should go."
Miss Yu said: "Yanbei is in chaos right now. After learning that the young master is going back, all forces are fighting each other. We have already wasted a lot of time."
Yan Xun sighed helplessly, "I understand."
"Young master naturally understands, and you should also understand what the consequences will be if you stay at night for a few more days. But you can't do it, young master, you are no longer like the you I know. I think, even if it is Chu Qiao is here, and she won't be willing to see you act so disregarding the overall situation. Even if you are not here to help, with her ability, she will definitely return to Yanbei safely."
Yan Xun raised his head slowly, and murmured in a low voice: "I know everything you said, I'm just a little worried, afraid that if she comes, I'll be disappointed if I'm not here waiting for her."
"What?" Miss Yu was taken aback for a moment. He stubbornly led the whole army to wait for the Southwest Township's envoy in this dangerous place, not because he was afraid that she would be in danger, but because he was afraid that she would be disappointed if she couldn't see him
"It's funny to say it." Yan Xun laughed at himself and shook his head, "As long as you are human, you will inevitably be stupid once, and I am not immune. This time I lied to her and abandoned the officers and soldiers of the Southwest Township. Although I don’t say it, I must be angry with me in my heart, I just want to explain it to her personally.”
Miss Yu raised her eyebrows, "But..."
"I understand." Yan Xun interrupted her, "After tonight, if she hasn't arrived, we will leave."
Miss Yu sighed and nodded, "In that case, this subordinate will go down first."
Yan Xun stepped forward, "I'll see you off."
As soon as he walked out of the gate of the camp, a sharp sword edge suddenly struck from the side, as fast as lightning, and a yell exploded in his ears like thunder! Yan Xun's reaction was like a leopard's in an instant, sensitively sensing the coming of the murderous intent at the first moment, his movements were flowing like clouds and flowing water, suddenly violently pulled out the short knife at his waist with the palm of his hand, and blocked the oncoming sword with one knife, turning his body to the side Bend, and escaped the swift and fierce killing blow to the peak!
"Protect Your Highness!" Miss Yu shouted calmly, the guards on the left and right rushed forward at the same time, and after a crackling fight, the assassin was quickly taken down!
Standing in the crowd, Yan Xun looked at the man in front of him with a frown, and said in a deep voice, "I said, don't do it a third time!"
The man is only about twenty years old, with a handsome face, the former sunny vigor has disappeared, and it has all turned into a cold and murderous aura. He looked at Yan Xun coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone who betrays the lord and the country will be punished!"
"Stubbornness!" Yan Xun snorted coldly, "Zhao Song, this is the last time, because of the love between you and me, I will let you go for the last time. When we meet again, I will never serve you again. show mercy!"
Zhao Song sneered, "Yan Xun, I still think your heart is really made of iron and stone. You killed so many people in the imperial capital, why can't you kill me alone? But if you don't kill me today, you will definitely regret it in the future." and!"
Yan Xun turned around, without even looking at him, "Let him go."
"Where's Chun'er? Where is she?"
"I said that Zhao Chun'er is not here."
Zhao Song was furious, "You're lying!"
Yan Xun's face was stern, "I don't need to take away a princess who has lost power."
Zhao Song frowned, seemed to know that Zhao Chun'er was not with Yan Xun. He raised his head, looked at Yan Xun, and said in a deep voice: "Yan Xun, from now on, you and I have been together for eight years, and there is no half-hearted friendship. When we meet again, I will still take your life, and you don't have to do it again." Show mercy to my subordinates. You let me go three times. If I could kill you one day, I would kill myself and return this life to you. We must liquidate!"
Yan Xun didn't speak, his robe was blown away by the wind in West Maliang, like a big bird flying up, the expression on his face was very calm, calm, but there was only one pair of eyes, as black as the sea generally.
