Silver light exploded above their heads, illuminating the entire battlefield, snowflakes scattered lightly, and heavy hooves rumbled across the ground.
Tan Moraga hugged Yaoying tightly, the tighter and tighter, the strength was so strong that it seemed to rub her into her body.
The generals, soldiers, commoners, and monks stared blankly at their Buddhist sons who took the Han princess into his arms, and their expressions were even more horrified than the strange celestial phenomenon that seemed like the wrath of gods and Buddhas.
Thunder bursts.
The night wind swept past with a chill, the flag was flying, and the sound of breaking the sky rose and fell one after another.
Tamara regained his senses, let go of Yaoying, pressed her into his arms, and turned around.
The two men's personal troops immediately followed. On the top of the city, Bi Su directed the soldiers to shoot arrows at the chasing iron cavalry to prevent them from approaching.
Hundreds of people quickly withdrew into the city.
Yuanjue came over, his face was slightly red, and he hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to say.
Tamara got off his horse, turned around, and stretched out his arms towards Yaoying in full view of everyone.
The night wind blew past, stroking his cassock.
Yaoying was startled.
Surprised gasping sounds all around, and the people stand far away, whispering.
Tan Mo Luojia was calm, embraced Yaoying's waist, hugged her and dismounted, a pair of blue eyes looked at her quietly, and her eyes stayed on her lips for a few breaths.
The intense kiss just now wasn't his gaffe.
Yaoying's heart was pounding wildly, her legs were still soft, she held his arm and stood firm, and when she saw the part following him, her heart shuddered, she recovered, and said, "Haidu Aling has seen me before. The other tribes panicked, he wouldn't, and the iron cavalry who was chasing must be his subordinates. But it's already dark now, as long as we build momentum in the city head and disturb the morale of the army , he doesn't know how many reinforcements there are, and he won't risk attacking the city when the reinforcements first arrive."
"He's not afraid, his soldiers will!"
As she spoke, she waved her hand and motioned for her part to go to the top of the city.
The personal soldiers responded, carried, carried, and carried the improved weapons, and climbed to the top of the city, in groups of seven or eight, and began to assemble the equipment. They have been trained many times and are agile and proficient.
Bi Suo came over and asked, "How many people are there in the princess' army?"
Yaoying replied: "More than 500 people..."
As soon as the words came out, she felt that Tanmaraka's eyes suddenly became severe.
He is like a Buddha, with a dignified appearance. When looking at people, even if his face is gentle, it will make people feel pressure for no reason. When he stared at him with such eyes, Yaoying felt guilty for a while, and then remembered the above. The second parting scene, anger surged up, raised his chin, and looked at him confidently.
She hasn't settled with him yet!
He frowned slightly and said nothing.
"It's too risky!" Bi Suo followed Yaoying step by step. After a while, she was afraid and sweaty, "What if the princess is caught up by Haidu Aling?"
Yaoying said: "Izhou is guarded by the Western Army, and the old Beirong Division has been scattered. Haidu Aling has no other helpers. The coalition army he led this time is composed of different tribes. Not much, as long as their camp is in chaos, there is no way to attack. I sent people to attack the camp while it was dark, just to let them blow up the camp."
Bi Suo worriedly said, "Aren't those who attacked the camp unable to escape?"
Yaoying shook her head: "It's okay, they are far away. When I enter the city in chaos, they will leave immediately, and they will not be caught up by the Northern Army."
After she finished speaking, without waiting for Tamara Ka to say anything, she raised her feet and climbed to the top of the city.
Tamaroka followed behind her.
The soldiers of the royal court were exhausted and had already made way for Yaoying's trilogy. The soldiers quickly assembled a simple set up by the light of the torches. He tied something like an empty tube, and focused on the iron cavalry that was gradually approaching under the city head.
Xie Chong looked at the black battlefield and waited patiently. When the cavalry approached, he raised a flag and waved it.
With a few whizzes, a rain of arrows fell.
The royal court soldiers exclaimed.
Just listening to a few bangs, a few sparks suddenly burst into the place where the arrow was shot, and a thunderous explosion echoed in the air.
The cavalry's momentum was stagnant.
The soldiers continued to draw their bows, and rounds of arrows rained down, and the flames swarmed.
Tamaroga watched for a while, took the hyperbolic bow from a soldier's hand, and fired several arrows.
These arrows were castrated sharply, the whistling echoed, and where the arrows landed, the flames burst into flames, and the burning line of fire snaked like a snake, converging into a flame, and with the help of the wind, it burned roaringly.
The neighing sound of the horses, the war horses are afraid of the night fire, and the hoofs neigh.
The Beirong iron cavalry became agitated.
Haidu Aling looked up at the towering holy city in the night, and there was blood in his teeth.
If Tanmaraga is the nemesis of Wakhan Khan, then Princess Wenzhao must have come to defeat him.
She united with the royal court in the form of a covenant, secretly colluded with noble families from all over the country during the civil strife in the Northern Rong and concentrated forces to attack the royal court, organized a rebel army, and recaptured more than a dozen important towns in one fell swoop, and then used coercion and lure to make the states surrender to her and pacify the Western Regions. Then he cooperated with Li Xuanzhen to cut off the communication between the eastern and western parts of Beirong, causing the tribes to the east of Beirong to flee back to the mountains, while his 5,000 soldiers and horses were blocked outside Baicheng, unable to retake Yizhou eastward, and had to flee westward. , After suffering all the way, he found several Beirong tribes in Samadang.
He used to carry the tribes that Wakhan Khan secretly subdued, the horse farms that he painstakingly managed, the craftsmen he raised... All his efforts fell into the hands of Li Yaoying.
Before he could gain a firm foothold in Samadan, Li Yaoying opened up the trade route of the North Road, and the various ministries of the North Road were lured by their interests and were unwilling to help Beirong to restore the country. In a few more years, Li Yaoying has traveled through the Western Regions, and the people's hearts will grow.
That's why he endured the humiliation and burdened the suzerain state near Samantang, married a stinky princess, borrowed soldiers and horses, and returned to the east to restore the country.
Unexpectedly, the sudden civil strife in Wang Ting was a good opportunity from heaven. He turned to attack Wang Ting, fearing that the Western Army would come to rescue, he sent a team disguised as Wang Ting's army to attack the Western Army, burning, killing, looting and provoking two people on their territory. The hatred of the country, judging from the reaction of the Western Army, they should have been tricked.
Unexpectedly, when he was about to capture the holy city, Princess Wen Zhao actually came!
The only person who can "shoot thunder and fire from the sky" is Princess Wenzhao!
Haidu Aling did not believe in those so-called punishments from heaven and gods. He knew that they must be some new type of equipment developed by craftsmen under Li Yaoying's account, but this kind of weapon is too evil. Every chief would feel terrified, not to mention the soldiers who had little knowledge.
After the bombing of the camp, there was no way to quickly restore morale.
Those rout soldiers didn't know where they went, and he had to gather the rout soldiers as soon as possible to stabilize the morale of the army.
Haidu Aling gritted his teeth and waved to his subordinates.
After a while, the horn for the withdrawal of troops sounded, and the iron cavalry retreated in an orderly manner in the dark night.
The soldiers on the top of the city cheered softly and asked the Xizhou soldiers with a smile: "What is this? It's so powerful?!"
The Western State Soldier replied with a smile: "This is a thunderbolt arrow and a fire bomb."
Everyone was very curious, and surrounded the Xizhou soldiers and their weapons, tsk tsk amazement.
Although they still hadn't cleared the siege, after besieging the city for a few days, they finally saw reinforcements coming.
Right now, there is no distinction between the royal family and the Han Chinese. They are comrades who fight side by side and friends who share life and death.
Bi Su smiled and watched the soldiers joking, and looked at the Beirong coalition camp surrounded by fire in the distance. She breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Haidu Aling would definitely attack the city after dawn. , does not change the overall situation.
The enemy temporarily retreated, and everyone was exhausted. They lay down and rested on the spot. The soldier fell asleep directly with his long knife in his arms.
The wind roared, dripping water into ice.
Yaoying stood at the air vent, shivering slightly from the cold, and her body swayed.
She hadn't closed her eyes for days and nights.
Tamara came over, lowered her head and put on a cloak for her, and fastened her ties: "They won't be attacking the city again before dawn, go and rest."
Yaoying looked at him with exhaustion between her brows: "What about you? Are you tired?"
Tamara raised her eyes and looked at her for a while.
"tired."
he said softly.
very tired.
But he was unconscious, and he didn't care at all about his physical fatigue and pain.
He didn't care about the betrayal of the guards, the doubts of the people, or the accusations of the monks.
These were the consequences he had long anticipated.
Even if the whole world scolds him, it will not shake his heart.
But here she is.
She looked at him with concern and asked him if he was tired.
So in an instant, all the tiredness buried in the deepest surged up. He felt very tired and wanted to stop and rest for a while, and then move on after recovering his energy.
On the road of lonely trekking, suddenly there is a dazzling light that gently shrouds the boundless darkness, bright, warm, and soft.
He gave birth to covetousness and wanted to monopolize this beam of light. He stared at her covetously for a long time, and finally reached out his hand and held this beam of brilliance.
Tan Moraga supported Yaoying and took her to rest.
In the flickering firelight, the two of them stood shoulder to shoulder, hugged tightly, and walked away step by step. The wind blew his monk robe and the silk strands of her hair, and the firelight stretched the shadows of the two of them very long. , integrated and inseparable.
The soldiers stood up one after another, got out of the way, and watched the backs of the two leave.
The long street was bustling, and the people came out of their hiding places one after another, staring at the two with their eyes, and their expressions were different. People in the whole city are here, but not a word can be heard, only the footsteps of Tamara and Yaoying.
Yaoying trembled slightly.
His hand suddenly warmed, and a hand reached out and held hers, the warm palm rubbing against the back of her hand.
Startled, she raised her head.
Tanmaraga lowered her eyes, and under the silent gaze of the believers, she held her hand, the strength in her bones radiated, her eyes were quiet, firm, and unquestionable. The corners of his lips twitched slightly, creating a very light and shallow smile, like a lotus flower gently swaying in the Sansheng Pond, reflecting the swaying light and shadow.
From today onwards, the road in the future, just walk with me like this.
Yaoying looked at him, and all the things she knew about him flashed in her mind. He appeared on the sand dunes like a god and rescued her from Haidu Aling. When he was dying, he was still serving the long-term peace of the royal court. Planning, he endured the pain alone, he sat in front of the book desk and studied the Buddhist scriptures, she pulled his sleeve curiously, he ran thousands of miles to save himself, and left alone, he lay on the ground, like a madman, asked. Is she going to...
The last time they met, he spoke softly, promising her that he would take good care of himself.
The worries, anger, resentment, and longing that had accumulated in her heart since separation vanished at this moment, the tip of her nose was sore, her eyes were hot and wet, she smiled at him, and scratched her fingers a few times in his palm.
Tanmaraka's body suddenly stiffened and tense, her eyes darkened, and she held her fingers tightly.
He walked into the council hall, pushed open the door of a room inside, and pulled her in.
Yaoying looked around, there was no high or large bed in the room, only a table and a futon and a long couch. The table was piled with maps and documents. It was clean and tidy, with a faint scent of sinking water. .
He let her sit on the couch and turned to go out. After a while, the attendant brought food, she ate something, took a shower, tied her long hair loosely with a hairband, put on clean clothes, and lay down on the couch.
After a few days of galloping, she seemed to have been run over, her bones were sore, and her thighs hurt badly.
She was drowsy, half-dreaming and half-awake when she felt a figure sitting on the edge of the couch and opened her eyes.
Tamara was sitting on the edge of the couch, looking down at her, her eyes were blue and black.
Yaoying was sleepy, she turned her body and moved inside, patted the couch: "Master, come up and sleep."
She has just taken a bath, her skin is brighter than snow, her cheeks are flushed, she is lying on the long couch, her rich black hair is loose, and she wears only a light-colored gown that is close-fitting. The shadow of her, her red lips parted slightly, her eyes were wet.
Like budding branches after rain.
A wisp of sweet fragrance floats in the air, like a fragrant floral fragrance.
Tamara leaned over, pulled up the quilt and wrapped Yaoying, wrapping her tightly, and then lay down.
Outside the city, there are 100,000 Beirong coalition forces like wolves and tigers. The food is exhausted and the weapons are exhausted. He does not know how many days he will live...
He has a lot to think about.
But she came, braved the flames to come to him, lying on his couch, at this moment, he didn't want to think about anything, only her in his heart.
