Blue City.

Located in the central hub of the mainland.

You can go out of the Yumen Pass to reach the ghost desert in the north, you can pass through the Nanshui Jiangzhou in the south, you can go all the way east to cross the Bauhinia Fortress into the Dongtu Temple, and you can go all the way to the west through the West Horizon into Xichuan, the imperial capital is located in this ancient city of Blue City, which is the passage of the Purple Country to all directions, and the rear of the Blue City is the symbol of the peak of the Great Purple Centralization, Baya City.

At present, the Cangjiang River of the Nu River, where the Tiger Guards and the Forbidden Army are located, is fierce, the river is more than a thousand meters wide, and the flowing water seems to be roaring, so it is called the Nu River.

There is only one passage across the Nu River, called the Cangjiang River.

So, if you want to get to the Blue City quickly or from the Blue City to the Northeast quickly, the Nu River is a fast route, but now the bridge has been destroyed.

If you want to pass through the Nu River, you must first seize the Cangjiang River ferry, which is also the only ferry to cross the Nu River.

Three days after arriving at the Nu River, there was still no shadow of the enemy army in front, and even the shadow of the Northeast Dragon Guard could not be seen, Li Chuan couldn't help but worry, the Cangjiang ferry bridge was destroyed, which was equivalent to cutting off the communication between the two places, and the rear did not know how the battle was going forward, and did not dare to act rashly, so he could only wait anxiously.

But waiting without news is the most torturous.

After another day, there was still no movement, fortunately, although the bridge was destroyed, but there were still many ships, Li Chuan ordered 10,000 troops to cross the river by boat to support, leaving 20,000 forbidden troops and 30,000 tiger guards to continue to wait in the Nu River.

The origin of the twin peaks is because the two tall mountains stand on both sides, and the shape is like children looking at each other, forming a line of separation, which is very steep, so it is called the twin mountains.

On the eighth day of the Dragon Guard's retreat to the Twin Peaks, crows circled in the setting sun on the battlefield, and suddenly saw a dense flock of winged birds flying by, scrambling to fly away, leaving corpses and smoke in the ground.

"Chirp"

The sharp arrows poured down again, and the corpses on the ground were all swept away, and when the winged birds flew by, the ground suddenly bulged, and then one by one the dragon guards jumped out and shouted: "Half-beast turtle grandson, grandpa is here." ”

"Don't make any noise, the half-beast army is about to fight, so hurry up and withdraw while it's dark. ”

Suddenly, a fiery red light burned everywhere, and the darkness of the evening disappeared at once, and the sky turned white and shiny.

Having fought dozens of times with the half-beast army, knowing that this was a precursor to the half-beast army's attack, Chen Ming, the commander of the Dragon Guard, shouted: "Withdraw, withdraw quickly." ”

The ground loosened, and a large crowd jumped out of the ground, leaving a large group of potholes.

However, eight days ago, there were 40,000 people, and now there are less than 20,000.

Eight consecutive days of fighting, although it stopped the advance of the half-beast army, the dragon guard army suffered heavy losses, and it was almost exhausted, and now it can only be called the northeast rout.

However, compared to the losses of the Northeast Defense Line and Wuyang Pass, this loss is nothing.

It is simply inconceivable that with only 30,000 Tiger Guards and 10,000 laborers, and without a strong defensive position, they could hold out for five days.

The northeast defense line in front was broken through by the half-beast army, with a loss of eight thousand, Wuyang City was breached, and the loss was more than half, and the situation of failing to withdraw from the battlefield in time has not yet been counted, and the loss of about 20,000 people under the twin peaks is about 20,000 people, the first two have bases to defend, and the half-beast army is not easy to break, but the half-beast army easily hit in, and the twin peaks have nothing to defend, but they can also block the half-beast army for eight days.

Originally, there were still 40,000 people left in the northeast defense line after retreating from Wuyang, staff officer Pan Daoming, battalion commanders Hua Xi, Lian Ying, and Tian Yong, the battalion commander of the pro-guard army, and the rest were all banners, of which 3,000 people in the northeast commanded the pro-guard army unscathed, and the remaining two battalion commanders still had 20,000 people, and the remaining less than 10,000 people were reorganized into a battalion led by staff officer Pan Daoming.

After knowing the situation in Blue City, Chen Ming understood that he had to continue to block the advance of the half-beast army before the reinforcements reached the Nu River, and that night he ordered the pro-guard army to dig a big pit on the road of the Twin Peaks overnight to allow the two of them to squat, and the battalion commander Hua Xi led a thousand soldiers to turn back to find out the movement of the half-beast army, and then the battalion commander Lian Ying led 10,000 people to hide in the big pit, waiting for the arrival of the half-beast army.

At noon the next day, Huaxi came back from exploration, the army of the half-beast clan was coming, sure enough, there was a large group of fierce beasts in the afternoon of the same day, but the Northeast soldiers retreated more than ten miles, and the beasts followed and chased over, but the beasts were again taken by the Northeast Army after passing through the mountain road to run into the Twin Peaks Canyon, and the scattered troops blocked the path of the beasts with big stones, and the retreating Northeast soldiers detoured back to the back of the Twin Peaks, thus forming an offensive of the front and rear of the half-beast army, in the battlefield where there were no beasts, only illusions interfered with the battlefield, there were more than 10,000 Northeast soldiers who came back in front of them to attack the 30,000 vanguard troops of the half-beast army, and after the battle, More than 10,000 soldiers ambushed in the underground pit also broke out of the ground when they heard the sound of killing, the imperial soldiers were wearing purple armor, the half-beast clan had dark skin, and the human body was beast-faced, there was no armor on the body, only a red shawl and turban, it was easy to identify and fight on the battlefield, regular combat, the half-beast army was slightly inferior to the purple army, not to mention that these remaining were elite soldiers, and the Northeast elite who had been disturbed by illusion and survived.

Finally, when night came, the half-beast army was repulsed, and the casualties of the northeastern soldiers in this battle were less than 4,000, while the half-beast army lost a full 10,000.

The reason why this small battle was able to repel the half-beast army was because the half-beast army was ambushed by the Northeast Dragon Guard, and after the battle began, the Northeast soldiers continued to pour out of the ground to kill them by surprise, and the half-beast army panicked for a while, and the formation was chaotic, I don't know what the leading Ula Ula said, all of them retreated backwards, this battle was like a harvest, but there were also 2,000 dead and wounded in the final counterattack of the half-beast clan, and about 2,000 people were slightly injured and could still participate in the battle.

Night falls, and the commander is in the tent.

"On the first day, we lost another 2,000 soldiers, how can we hold on for seven days. Chen Ming sat at the head of the desk, his brows furrowed.

"Lian Ying, tonight you continue to lead 10,000 soldiers to ambush underground, and this time you will come forward when you hear the password. Chen Ming continued: "Hua Xi gave you a thousand men and horses, bypassing the Twin Peaks overnight, if the half-beast army does not attack again tonight, find their camp, and then launch an attack, you can do this yourself, I just need to see that tomorrow's half-beast army does not have the strength to continue the attack." ”

"Tianyong is responsible for guarding, and the range has been expanded to ten miles away, with one hundred steps and one post and fifty steps and one sentry. Report back as soon as there is a change. ”

It was late at night, and until the second half of the night, I didn't see the half-beast army attacking.

In the labor team, a young man with a delicate demeanor, wearing a wide dragon guard armor, and I don't know which dead dragon guard was taken off, looking around and looking out of place with the entire battlefield, this young man is Lu Qi.

Lu Qi has woken up from the numbness of Wuyang City, he was originally the righteous son of Li Chuan, the commander of Blue City, but Li Chuan is stationed in the southwest all the year round, Lu Qi stays in Blue City all the year round, plus Li Chuan's first-hand Li family's marksmanship is perfect, and his personality has been relatively arrogant since he was a child.

Lu Qi and Li Si and Yang Lin worshipped brothers of the opposite sex, Li Si served as a captain in the Praetorian Guard, Yang Lin was the son of the president Yang Hua, and he also had an official and a half-position in the court, plus Lu Qi grew up in Jiangnan when he was a child, and he returned to the Blue City after the Southwest Liukou made trouble, Jiangnan chivalrous warriors prevailed, Lu Qi also learned the same, and he had to worship when he saw that people were not disgusted, and he was later restricted by Li Si to Li Mansion, so he had little experience, and he was as simple as Xiaobai who did not set foot in the rivers and lakes.

But after the new emperor took office, the trajectory of his life began to completely change.

After the new emperor Baya Xintu took office, the Xiliang family Leng Feng wrote a letter to the king of the territory, and the Yang Hua faction in the middle of the court naturally thought that it could be sealed, but the Guogong brother Shu Ce and his faction thought that it could not be sealed.

Sealed or not, there are pros and cons, the Xiliang family is not a family, but has thirty-six tribes large and small, the Xiliang Leng family and the Xiliang Liangyue family have always been the big leaders of the Xiliang family, and this time it is the Leng family Leng Feng who wants to seal the king.

If the Leng family is sealed, the Liang family may also have to write to seal the king, which shows that the Purple Kingdom is afraid of Xiliang, the new emperor has just taken office, so naturally the Xiliang family can't be underestimated, if it is not sealed, maybe Xiliang will cause unnecessary turmoil, and this matter can't be decided for a while.

The new emperor has just ascended the throne, the regime is unstable, Lu Qi participated in the formation of the Purple League under the temptation of an old way, and the first thing to establish the Purple League is to determine the leader of the alliance, and one of the conditions for choosing the leader of the alliance is to enter the palace to see Princess Baya Xinyu, why do you want to see Baya Xinyu?

No one has fulfilled this condition, so the position of the leader of the alliance has been delayed, but Lu Qi, who has a little knowledge of the affairs of the court, heard about the king of Xiliang, so he participated in the discussion of the Purple Alliance.

Among them, Lu Qi said: "The king is not the king, this is the same as the family inheritance, if the eldest son is allowed to inherit the family business, then naturally there is nothing to say, if the second son is allowed to continue the family business, the eldest son is naturally not convinced, and it is not uncommon for each other to compete for family property." ”

Yang Lin was suddenly inspired by these remarks, and as soon as he pondered about the matter of the Feng Xiliang family and these words, a better plan appeared.

Feng Wang, not only to seal the Leng family and the Liang family, not only to seal Leng Feng and Liang Yu, but also to his son has a title, and the territory and title can be hereditary, and the matter of Xiliang to be sealed is solved.

As everyone knows, Xiliang Leng Feng wanted to be crowned king in fact, Yang Hua and Leng Feng colluded to test the new emperor, who would have thought that it would be resolved in this way, and he didn't expect Lu Qi to make a juvenile remark to the new emperor Baya Xintu, which made Xiliang fall into a power struggle.

This made Yang Hua's heart angry, knowing that it was Lu Qi's remarks, and knowing the relationship between Yang Lin and him, he was even more furious, and then when he summoned Lu Qi into the palace through Baya Xintu, it was Li Si who took Lu Qi into the palace, but Li Si suddenly received an order to be transferred back to the army, so another forbidden military captain took Lu Qi into the palace, but this was all Yang Hua's conspiracy.

Lu Qi had never entered the palace, so he naturally didn't know that the palace was dangerous, and the captain of the forbidden army took him to the palace of Baya Xinyu, the princess of Changping, and let him enter alone, and Lu Qi entered Changping Garden without doubting it.

Originally, he was going to enter the palace to meet the emperor, but he was taken to Princess Changping's palace, and the captain added fuel and vinegar and said: "Lu Qi is bold, His Majesty didn't take it to heart when he summoned him, but he actually saw that Princess Changping's maid was good-looking, and he ignored His Majesty's summons and followed him into Changping Garden." ”

I have to say that Yang Hua is a good plan, you don't know that Baya Yuan can't enter casually in the palace, but you don't know that Changping Yuan can't enter, none of the men who enter Changping Yuan come out normally, and the slightly better ones are all crazy, demented, and even some die of blood spraying on the spot.

Because of the new language of Changping Princess Baya, she seems to have an incredible spell on her body, usually women can't get close, and when choosing maids, I heard that more than 100 women went crazy, and more than 10 women died mysteriously, not to mention men approaching, so Changping Yuan has always been a taboo in the palace.

Yang Hua asked Lu Qi to take him to Changping Yuan, the purpose of this is obvious, not only to let Lu Qi die, even if he can't die, no matter what the words of the forbidden military captain, it is absolutely impossible to get out safely.

When Lu Qi entered Changping Garden, he thought that the palace was very lively, but it was deserted all the way, and when he entered this Changping Garden, he never saw a person.

Courageously continued to move forward, through the corridor, to the peach orchard, suddenly saw smoke in the depths of the peach forest in front of me, curious to go up to see, but saw a beautiful woman out of the bath.

Her hair was black and soft, shawl down, after wet, it was like a black cloud satin, soft and silky, Lu Qi couldn't help but be fascinated, and stepped forward, the woman in the hot spring saw the man who suddenly broke in, and suddenly screamed "ah", and stood up straight from the hot spring.

But Lu Qi didn't echo in this exclamation, only saw Princess Changping's forehead white with a bean-sized red cinnabar, the bottom of her eyes was clear, her eyelashes were slightly upturned, and her red lips were as bright as if they were congested, and her delicate face was red.

Princess Changping saw Lu Qi staring at her like a lost soul, and only then did she relax and observe Lu Qi carefully.

The facial features are quite upright, but in addition to the delicate of a teenager, Fangzheng's face also carries an inexplicable evil aura from the bottom of his heart, his long hair is black and shiny, and the whole person is a little stunned at the moment, but overall it is quite delicate.

The water beads slid over Princess Changping's black silk and fell on the hot spring with a "ticking" sound, Princess Changping looked at herself, and then looked at Lu Qi who was drooling, hurriedly wrapped her clothes and walked over quickly, and slapped Lu Qi who was stunned.
