Ever since Yan Chi left, Qin Wan felt a little uneasy.
The southwest wind blew for half the night, although it was a good thing, but the sound of the wind was howling, and the barracks where most of them had left was empty, making the sound of the wind even more desolate.
Yue Ning knew that Qin Wan was worried, so she accompanied her in the big tent of the Chinese army. When it was time to go to bed, the two of them rested together on the couch in the tent. Even so, Qin Wan couldn't sleep because of tossing and turning. Ning talked with Qin Wan for a while, and the two of them just got lost one after another.
Qin Wan woke up and fell asleep, and after an unknown amount of time, she was suddenly awakened by a loud noise.
She sat up suddenly and shouted, "Is the army back?"
Bai Ying stepped in from outside and said, "It's not my princess, it's a military flag in front of the big tent that was blown down by the wind!"
Qin Wan let out a breath when he heard the words, "No wonder, I was taken aback."
As a result, Qin Wan couldn't fall asleep, and Yue Ning also sat up. Seeing that the sky outside was still dark, she asked, "When is it?"
Bai Ying said, "It's almost time."
As soon as Mao Shi passed, it would be dawn, and Qin and Wan simply stayed awake.
When he got up and came out, he saw a few soldiers setting up the fallen military flag outside.
Qin Wan looked at the military flag and her heart beat a little faster. Although she was not superstitious about ghosts, she always felt that it was not a good thing for the military flag to land in wartime.
Just as she was thinking, she saw the flying military flag slowly stop. She stretched out her hand and frowned, "The wind has become weaker."
Yue Ning hurriedly said, "It's okay, there should have been a fight. It's a good thing that the wind has stopped at this time."
Qin Wan sighed, "I hope everything goes well."
It was quite cold outside at this time, Qin Wan was about to drag Yue Ning in after finishing speaking, but at this moment, several soldiers hurried over from the direction of the camp gate, before the first one walked into the sidewalk, "Princess! Two people came from outside, claiming to be the deposed prince and your sister. They said they needed to see you urgently. They also brought a middle-aged woman who they said was the deposed queen. I dare not let it go with my permission—"
Qin Wan was stunned, the waste prince and her sister? Isn't that Yan Che and Qin Chaoyu!
Also brought the Queen! The queen is still injured? !
How could this be? Isn't tonight the time when the three armies are at war? !
Qin Wan frowned, and immediately walked towards the camp gate, "I'll go and see—"
At this moment, no one dared to lie about his family name like this. Qin Wan already believed 90% that it was Yan Che who came, but how could it be
Qin Guan was puzzled, and when he reached the gate of the camp, he saw Qin Chaoyu and Yan Che standing on horseback, and on Yan Che's horseback lay a man who had been shot by an arrow in the back of his left shoulder. The person, Qin Wan took a closer look, it wasn't Zhao Shuhua who it was!
"Qin Wan!" Seeing Qin Wan appearing, Qin Chaoyu yelled out first, and said with red eyes, "Qin Wan, save the mother!"
Yan Che's eyes were also bloodshot. Although he didn't speak at the moment, he looked at Qin Wan with pleading eyes.
Qin Wan made a quick decision, "Bring people in—"
The soldiers knew it was true as soon as they heard it, and hurriedly let them go. Yan Che and Qin Chaoyu drove their horses into the camp. Qin Wan quickly led them all the way to an empty tent, "Help them in first—"
After ordering, Qin Wan immediately told Bai Ying, "Go to the wounded barracks and call two helpers, and then bring medicine for trauma, and they will know if you say it was an arrow wound."
Bai Ying walked away quickly, and Yue Ning, who followed, was also stunned. While helping to lift the curtain to light the lamp, she looked at the dying Zhao Shuhua.
Zhao Shuhua was helped into the room, she was already unconscious, lying on a wooden couch, the arrow shaft could still be seen on the back of her shoulder.
The shaft of the arrow has already been cut in half, but through the clothes, Qin Wan can also imagine how deep the arrow clusters penetrated into the flesh, and the blood flowed all over Zhao Shuhua's back. Looking at Qin Chaoyu and Yan Che, they were so embarrassed that they almost seemed to have escaped from disaster!
Qin Wan didn't say much, and asked directly, "What happened?"
Qin Chaoyu said in a low voice, "Earlier when the army left the camp, there were only a few thousand people left in our camp. We were supposed to wait for the army to return from victory, but in the middle of the night, a lot of people suddenly came. It was the Jinzhou army. They wanted to come After arresting the queen mother and the prince, we escaped from the camp. The queen mother was injured on the way. We separated from other soldiers and escaped. Empress—”
As Qin Chaoyu spoke, tears fell, she raised her hand to wipe it off, but couldn't stop it.
And Qin Wan felt as if he was struck by lightning when he heard this.
It was agreed that the three armies will fight together, how could it be possible for a large army to attack the Beifu army in the middle of the night
"Who brought it? Who gave the order, do you know?"
Qin Wan hurriedly asked, Qin Chaoyu glanced at Yan Che and shook his head, "I don't know about this, but since it's the Jinzhou Army, it must be..."
Qin Chaoyu looked at Yue Ning beside him with complicated eyes.
When Yue Ning saw her like this, she didn't know what she meant, so she widened her eyes immediately, "Impossible! It can't be what my father meant! How happy my father is for the alliance of the three armies, it is absolutely impossible for my father to use such a sly If you invite harm, it must be someone else!"
The three armies were fighting together tonight, Yue Qiong must have left Wei County with his troops, if Yue Qiong left, who could stir up trouble
A name flashed in Qin Wan's mind, but he didn't dare to make a conclusion. Seeing that Qin Chaoyu and Yue Ning were confronting each other, he hurriedly said, "I don't know the truth yet, so don't draw conclusions yet."
After finishing speaking, Qin Wan walked to Zhao Shuhua's side, asked her pulse and breath, and then said, "It can still be saved, I will try my best."
Qin Chaoyu and Yan Che both heaved a sigh of relief, Yan Che didn't speak for a long time, and said at this moment, "Something happened to us, Shuoxi Army may also be plotted against..."
Yan Che's words just responded to Qin Wan's worries, she nodded and thanked, then walked out the door.
Outside, Bai Ying was bringing the military doctor from the wounded barracks, Qin Wan grabbed Bai Ying and said, "Immediately tell General Xia, who is guarding the camp today, to send someone to find His Highness immediately, and say that the Beifu Army has been raided, and the Queen and the Crown Prince They are all here, the queen is seriously injured, tell His Highness all this, be sure to hurry up!"
Bai Ying's expression also changed, and she quickly responded to find someone to deliver the order.
Qin Wan watched Bai Ying leave, feeling empty in his heart, wondering if it would be too late...
Soon, Qin Wan settled down. This is not the time for her to worry. There is still someone waiting for her to save.
Qin Wan turned around to enter the account, and saw Yue Ning's serious face, she comforted her, "I believe foster father, someone must have hindered this matter."
Yue Ning couldn't bear to distract Qin Wan at this time, so she nodded first and said nothing more.
The medicine had already been brought, Qin Wan asked someone to fetch strong wine, and immediately prepared to fetch arrows for Zhao Shuhua, she first tore open the clothes on Zhao Shuhua's wound, and when she saw the wound, she frowned, "Arrows clustered into the wound." The meat is quite deep, I'm afraid it has already hurt the lungs—"
Yan Che hurriedly asked, "Will it hurt your life?"
Qin Wan said, "Not for the time being. It is very dangerous to take the arrow cluster. One is afraid that the bleeding will not be stopped, and the other is that the wound will fester and rot. Once the two happen, it will be fatal." Qin Wan raised his eyes and looked seriously. Looking at Yan Che, "I have made it very clear to the crown prince, the crown prince makes his own decision, but do you still want me to treat him?"
Yan Che nodded without thinking, "Of course! If you can't save the empress, then it will be the fate of the empress!"
Qin Wan didn't expect this trust. She froze for a moment, then nodded, "I will definitely do my best."
Qin Wan washed Zhao Shuhua's wound with spirits and said, "Yue Ning, take them to the side to rest, there is no need for so many people standing here."
Yue Ning was full of worries at the moment, and immediately said, "You all come with me."
After speaking, he left the big tent, and Yan Che and Qin Chaoyu naturally followed.
On this side, Qin Wan began to take arrowheads with the help of two doctors. Qin Wan's medical skills have now spread throughout the Shuoxi Army. The two of them naturally admire Qin Wan, and knowing the difficulty of taking arrowheads, They were all very nervous and didn't dare to make any mistakes. After a while, cold sweat dripped down Qin Wan's forehead. Although the two people next to him were only helping, they were also terrified. When the arrow was taken out, the two couldn't help applauding Qin Wan. , but then there is the most difficult hemostasis...
When Qin Wan was racing against time to save people, Yan Che and Qin Chaoyu in the tent beside him were fidgeting, and Yue Ning couldn't believe that it was his father who ordered the surprise attack on the Beifu Army. , You must have misunderstood, at this time, my father must also be fighting the Rongman."
Yan Che was only concerned about Zhao Shuhua's life at the moment, and sighed after hearing the words, "It is indeed the Jinzhou Army, but who ordered it is not yet known, the princess does not need to explain at this time."
Yue Ning felt both angry and aggrieved, moved her lips, but didn't say anything.
However, she is really scratching her heart, and she can't figure out how things have come to this point.
He wanted to go to Wei County to see it now, but he was afraid that Qin Wan would be worried if he left, so he could only pretend to be calm and sit where he was.
Not long after, Yan Che couldn't sit still anymore, so he walked to the door of Zhao Shuhua's big tent, and Qin Chaoyu naturally followed. The two stood at the door, only seeing the two military doctors who were helping. Holding the bloody water out, the two of them felt even more nervous when they saw it.
Yan Che never knew that a single person could shed so much blood, and when he thought of the soldiers lying in a pool of blood on the battlefield, he was even more afraid that Zhao Shuhua would just go west.
Seeing that his face was pale, Qin Chaoyu couldn't help but stepped forward and took his hand, Yan Che held Qin Chaoyu instead, and then regained his composure.
As time passed, the sky gradually changed from pitch black to azure blue, and there was still dawn in the sky. Yan Che became more and more anxious as he waited. At this moment, the wind suddenly picked up again, and a dull thunder rolled across the sky. The practice flashed by, and it fell like a torrential rain.
Yan Che was drenched, Qin Chaoyu said worriedly, "Your Highness, let's go back to the tent, lest you also feel bad."
Yan Che pushed Qin Chaoyu lightly, "You go back, don't worry about me, I don't worry."
Qin Chaoyu stopped persuading him, and only waited with Yan Che. After waiting for another half an hour, the sky brightened, and the curtain in front of him was suddenly thrown open.
Qin Wan stood at the door with a tired face, looked at the two in the rain, and said, "The blood has stopped, and whether the queen can live or not depends on her fate."
Yan Che's knees suddenly went weak, and looking at Qin Wan's exhausted appearance, he could only say, "Thank you... Thank you... If my mother survives by chance, we will definitely repay your life-saving grace..."
Seeing the two of them, Qin Wan sighed, "If you want to see it, come in and take a look, don't stay too long, and don't bring any moisture in."
Yan Che responded repeatedly, and then entered the tent. At this moment, Zhao Shuhua's face was completely pale, and she was lying on her stomach with her eyes closed, as if she had lost her voice. Fengpo's Zhao You was worried again.
Qin Wan was tired for more than two hours and couldn't bear it any longer, so he went back to the big tent of the Chinese army first. After washing up and eating two mouthfuls of soup cakes, Bai Ying asked Qin Chaoyu to see him, and Qin Wan naturally sent them Please come in.
As soon as he entered the door and saw Qin Chaoyu like this, Qin Wan ordered Bai Ying to find clothes to change for her, but when he asked Yan Che, Yan Che said no.
Qin Wan didn't force it either, she knew that Yan Che had something to say when he came to see him.
Sure enough, Yan Che said, "The Beifu army's attack this time must have been planned deliberately, because they happened to be stuck after the army left the camp, and in the middle of the night, the soldiers in the camp were the most sleepy. advantage, almost effortlessly."
Qin Wan looked at Yan Che, she could also think of these things, Yan Che must not focus on these things at the moment.
Soon Yan Che continued, "No matter who gave the order, they all want to disintegrate the Beifu Army, and the Shuoxi Army and the Beifu Army have almost the same standpoint. Most likely, that person will not let the Shuoxi Army go—"
Qin Wan said, "There was nothing in the camp last night. I don't know what's going on on the battlefield ahead, but I've sent someone to spread the word."
Yan Che nodded, and said again, "I... I want to ask the princess to borrow a team to send a message to Chongzhou. There are still 20,000 Beifu troops in Chongzhou. Now that someone wants to deal with us, I want to bring them here to avoid Understaffed."
Yan Che and Qin Chaoyu fled without a single subordinate around them, and no one who sent the message could be found.
This request is very simple, Qin Wan naturally nodded and agreed, Yan Che said again, "Now my mother can't do without the princess, so... I want the Beifu army from Chongzhou to come here. Anyway, the camp to the east has been destroyed, and Similarly, I want the concubine to send someone to find my grandfather and tell my grandfather about it. If there is no problem with my grandfather for the time being, I will let my grandfather take a look. Maybe my mother's queen... can't wait long... "
At this moment, Zhao Shuhua's life was in danger, not to mention taking her away, but she didn't know if she could survive tonight. Yan Che was afraid that if something happened, Zhao You would not even be able to see Zhao Shuhua for the last time, so Qin Wan naturally agreed this request.
In this way, Yan Che wrote two letters in his own handwriting, one was sent to Chongzhou, and the other was sent to Zhao You.
After all this was arranged, the rainstorm stopped, but the sky was still gloomy.
Qin Wan calculated the time, if everything went well last night, Yan Chi should have led the army back by this time, but now, there is still no sign of Yan Chi, and the first messenger sent out has not returned …
Thinking of Yan Che's words, Qin Wan's heart couldn't help but hang high.
Those who want to disintegrate the Beifu army must also want to deal with the Shuoxi army.
That person used the Jinzhou Army, and last night in Weixian County, there were only 20,000 Jinzhou Army left, and their Shuoxi Army also had 20,000 horses waiting in the camp. It is impossible to directly attack the Shuoxi Army camp Yes, and it was clear that nothing happened last night, so that person's method can only be used on the battlefield...
The battlefield and the enemy are changing rapidly. Although the Shuoxi Army has made a careful plan, if someone stabs a knife in the back...
Thinking of this, Qin Wan grabbed her heart hard.
…
On the field to the west of Luofengpo, there was a torrential rain, and the crying still did not stop.
At this moment, a group of spies returned from the north, and the leader came up to Yan Chi and said, "Your Highness, five miles ahead, the Beifu Army and the Rongman fought. The Rongman has been completely dispersed now. The Beifu Army Knowing about us, Zhao You and the others are rushing over here—"
The last sliver of heat in summer was washed away by the sudden rainstorm. All the soldiers of the Shuoxi Army stood silently on the scorched earth, everyone's face was full of chilling grief. Hearing this, Yan Chi's brows slightly frowned. Moved a bit.
He turned his horse's head and looked to the north, and sure enough, a group of light cavalry was rushing towards this side, and the leader was Zhao You, whom he hadn't seen for many years!
