A white porcelain bowl holds a freshly fried licorice soup, and a small white porcelain spoon carefully stirs up waves in the soup.

The dry aroma of herbs slowly diffused into the air with the rising white air.

After stirring the decoction in his hand for a while, Chen Hu always felt that it was still a little hot. Bringing the white porcelain bowl to his mouth, he stirred it and blew it again.

Bai Ting lay on the couch not far away, sleeping very unsteadily.

"Hmm...... Dumb Uncle ...... Don't leave...... Woo woo woo ...... "companion."

"Alas. Zhongyao has been gone for a few days, Brother Xiaobai, you ...... Alas......"

Chen Hu sighed again and again. With the medicine in hand, he sat down on the couch.

Putting the decoction aside for the time being, Chen Hu accepted the towel on Bai Ting's forehead. This towel was newly changed for Chen Hu when she entered the house just now. After a short while, the towel was already a little hot again.

Wash the towel in a basin of ice water and wring it out slightly. Chen Hu folded the towel and put it on for Bai Ting.

Bai Ting in front of him frowned deeply, his expression a little painful. His face was burned red, and his lips were so dry that he had not eaten for many days.

She is sick and stupid, and she looks stupid in the past, judging two people.

"Dumb uncle...... ......"I don't know what I dreamed of, but she cried quietly again." A few tears slipped down the corners of his eyes.

"It's been burning for so many days, why hasn't it gotten better?"

Chen Hu is also anxious.

Su Jingnian's medical skills, he really admired them. It has always been difficult to march to fight. Especially in this extreme weather environment, every step forward is a severe test of the soldier's body and mind.

The survival of the fittest is unbreakable, and the disobedience will die, the eternal truth.

Seeing Bai Ting crying sadly, Chen Hu was also sad in his heart. He hoped that Bai Ting would get better soon and change back to his familiar appearance as soon as possible.

"Brother Xiaobai," Chen Hu patted the back of Bai Ting's hand lightly and said, "Wake up, it's time to drink the medicine." ”

"Hmm......" Bai Ting's face tightened together, and his eyelids slowly opened.

"Hehe," Chen Hu laughed when he saw that she was awake. stepped forward to help Bai Ting up and sit down, and said, "After drinking the medicine boiled by your tiger brother, my little white brother will be alive and well immediately!"

Bai Ting sat up in a daze, and in a hazy way, he saw someone smiling at him next to the bed.

"You !! go"

Suddenly, Bai Ting stepped forward to push Chen Hu.

"You go away! Go away! Who wants your hypocrisy!" she said in a loud voice, waving her fist to hit Chen Hu.

"Brother Xiaobai?"

Chen Hu dodged back, and Bai Ting pounced one after another.

"You me off!! you evil !!" Bai Ting was furious, picked up the pillow on the couch and threw it at Chen Hu.

I heard that Bai Ting scolded himself for being a "harmful spirit". Chen Hu understood that she was confused. actually recognized himself as Su Jingnian.

"Oh, what is this for?" Chen Hu caught the pillow thrown by Bai Ting, and said aggrievedly: "Brother Xiaobai, you have to see clearly! I am your brother Hu! Not the prince! No!"

Bai Ting's chest rose and fell violently, and she looked at it fixedly, the person in front of her was indeed Chen Hu, not Su Jingnian.

"Hmph! All of them are harmful!" she turned her head, still angry.

"Okay, good, my little white brother is right, we are all harmful spirits!

Chen Hu also pretended to be angry and spoke for Bai Ting.

Holding the pillow, he leaned over and began to get close to the white pavilion. He said: "We evil spirits, we deserve to die! None of them are good things! The old man curses all the evil spirits under the heavens, and we must not die well! There is no place to die!"

"......" Bai Ting heard the words and was speechless.

Heart, in this world, how can anyone say this about themselves? Are they not afraid of good spirits and bad spirits?

"Eh, hey, hey," Chen Hu saw that her face eased slightly, and said flatteringly: "My little white brother, don't be angry with us who are going to die sooner or later, aren't you? Come, drink the medicine quickly, it's going to be cold when it's late. ”

"Don't drink it!" Bai Ting was so easy to be fooled, and said, "I won't drink that harmful medicine!"

"Uh," Chen Hu was a little embarrassed, and stretched out a pair of big hands that were blackened. He said, "It's not the one who hurts people...... Yes, it's my ...... who is a bad cook."

"Hmph. Bai Ting rolled his eyes and said in disgust: "I don't care, I just don't drink!"

"This ......" Chen Hu had no way out and was defeated.

"That's it. He sighed. put the pillow in his arms back on the bed, and folded the quilt for Bai Ting.

"Medicine, I'll put it here. If you want to drink it, it's better to drink it hot. When it's cold, the effect of the medicine is gone. Chen Hu instructed.

Bai Ting still twisted his head and didn't look at Chen Hu.

"Then you, brother tiger, I'm leaving. Chen Hu got up and walked towards the door of the king's tent.

Walking to the door, he stopped and said, "When Brother Xiaobai's body is a little better, maybe he won't think that the prince is a harmful spirit anymore." The prince made a thousand mistakes, and when his life was at stake, he was still protecting the little white brothers. ”

After speaking, Chen Hu pushed the door and left. Leaving Bai Ting alone, he sat on the couch in a daze.

"Squeaky. The door of the king's tent opened and closed quickly. Chen Hu flashed out.

It was a dark and snowy night, and the camp was peaceful. Except for the patrolling squads and the sentries stationed on high places, the soldiers slept peacefully by the fire and enjoyed a short rest.

Su Jingnian was wrapped in a blanket, only his head was exposed. She sat in the seat of the chariot and looked at the dark night sky, wondering what she was thinking.

Taking a few deep breaths of cold air, Chen Hu only felt refreshed, and his body was indescribably comfortable.

Walking up to Su Jingnian's side, he sat down.

"The prince is so elegant, are you enjoying the snow?" Chen Hu said with a smile.

Su Jingnian moved. There was a lot of snow on her head, shoulders, and in her arms. At this moment, many snowflakes scattered.

"How is she?" Su Jingnian's tone was flat as usual, but the question was not answered.

didn't wait for Chen Hu to reply. She asked, "Are you still refusing to drink the medicine?"

"Don't worry, Lord Wang!" Chen Hu's big hand patted Su Jingnian's shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother Xiaobai has an old man to take care of, and he will recover soon!"

"Hehe," Su Jingnian laughed and said, "In this way, General Chen, the harmful spirit, is still better than this king's harmful spirit." ”

"Hey, hey, hey," Chen Hu's swarthy face flushed red, and said, "It turns out, it turns out, the prince has heard it." Don't take it to heart, that, that's all nonsense I talked about in order to coax the little white brother to drink medicine. ”

Su Jingnian just laughed.

"Really, really. Chen Hu was afraid that she wouldn't believe it, so he hurriedly said again.

"Don't talk about that. Su Jingnian turned his head.

No longer looking at Chen Hu, she said: "According to the information provided by General Cangdu, Tubo sent troops to aid my northern region this time, and the Heavenly Master Grand Lama, the symbol of its supreme power, will also come in person. I believe that in the near future, reinforcements will come later. ”

"Oops???" Chen Hu stroked his beard and said in surprise: "The Living Buddha of Tubo is also going to the Yenisei ?!!!"

"Yes. As expected, it should have been Dawa's elf. Although we don't know why the Great Lama of Celestial Master came here and what purpose he has, you and I still need to make more preparations in advance to prevent accidents. ”

Su Jingnian said in his heart, where is the ball kicked by that person so easy to catch? Besides, is this kick a "ball" or a "time bomb"? Who knows.

"Leave this matter to me! However, the presence of the Living Buddha is really amazing. ”

Chen Hu still sighed and said, "If I can see the living Buddha in this life, it will be considered a consummation. Even if the luck is bad and the glory returns to the Yenisei, there is nothing to regret. ”

Hearing the word "glorious return", Su Jingnian's heart suddenly pinched together.

She rebuked Chen Hu in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense!"

"Hey, hey, hey. Chen Hu laughed and replied: "I'll make a joke and joke." ”

Looking at Su Jingnian's face as white as snow, Chen Hu smiled.

He said earnestly: "It's the prince, you should be more concerned about your body! ”

These words seem polite. But Chen Hu was really worried about Su Jingnian from the bottom of his heart. Even more than the White Pavilion.

Since Zhongyao went on the day of the fight, Su Jingnian has not closed his eyes for several days and nights. At night, he had to personally take care of the sick Bai Ting, and during the day, he had to discuss with Tubo the tactics and strategies of attacking the Rakshasas. Day and night, sleepless. Even if it is iron-clad muscles and bones, I am afraid that it will not be able to bear it. What's more, there are still injuries on the body.

"This king is fine. Su Jingnian replied.

"I've been thinking about it for the past few days. She looked up, and looked at the darkness above her again.

"Is it that this king did something wrong......" Su Jingnian seemed to ask, and seemed to answer.

Chen Hu was silent, and only followed Su Jingnian to look up at the dark night that devoured heaven and earth. He clearly noticed that Su Jingnian's light tone was mixed with an indescribable loneliness.

In the silent night, the cold wind and snow are full of gloom. Su Chen and the others didn't speak, so they sat like this for a long, long time.

The sky turned from dark to gray. But the snow was getting heavier and heavier. In the camp, the bonfire was extinguished. Scattered points of light flickered under the soot ash, and the smoke drifted away. On the stalls covered by the soldiers, the snow was accumulating more and more. As far as the eye can see, it looks like a snowman in the same place.

"I don't know too much. ”

Chen Hu pondered for a while. Or decided to break the slightly sad silence between the two.

After all, his ass is numb.

"Compare hearts to hearts. If the last general had led the troops on that day, he would have made such a decision. If we want to minimize our casualties, the catapult will be destroyed immediately. Replaced by others, as long as it is a commander who cares about the soldiers. Not to say that it is completely certain, most of them are also going to be tricked. The prince has always been sympathetic to the soldiers, and the Rakshasa may have also figured out the prince's temperament, so he came up with this serial plan with catapults as bait. As for the horse locking formation, it was indeed completely unexpected. In the information exchanged, it has never been heard that the Rakshasa has practiced this formation. ”

Chen Hu's words can be described as heartfelt words.

Su Jingnian shook his head and said, "What this king is referring to is not the matter of Zhongfu. ”

"Huh, isn't it?!" Chen Hu was surprised.

"It's not. Su Jingnian smiled a little bitterly and said, "Even if I am given a thousand, ten thousand times to make a decision, this king will still make such a choice." ”

Chen Hu held his breath, only to feel unbelievable. After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Even if he knew that there was an ambush under the catapult, did the prince still choose to do so?"

"Yes. "Su Jingnian is categorical.

"Why is this ??????" Chen Hu became more and more confused.

"Why does the general think that this king led the cavalry of the firearms battalion to meet the scouts, and not the other divisions?"

Su Jingnian turned his head and glanced at Chen Hu meaningfully.

"This ......" Chen Hu was stunned, and then exclaimed: "The prince has long expected that ?!!! Rakshasa will use a catapult as bait ?!!!"

"It's expected. Su Jingqing sighed and said, "The formation commonly used by the Rakshasa people, this king has done a little research these days, and the cavalry team of the firearms battalion is enough to break it." Then the king of Japan led the cavalry of the firearms battalion, and he went to break the formation. It's just that the ambush array that day turned out to be a horse locking array. This really caught this king off guard. This king never dreamed that Seventeen would hand over the horse locking formation created by this king to the enemy. And the enemy actually manipulated/manipulated the formation created by this king and slaughtered nearly a thousand heroes in our northern region! What a hateful thing! Thousands of calculations, all blame this king for missing seventeen. ”

Chen Hu was completely stunned, only his mouth grew up, and he looked at Su Jingnian in a daze.

"God, God......" he muttered to himself.

"This king regrets it," Su Jingnian lowered his eyes and said, "It's that this king doesn't recognize Zhongyao." Zhongyao clearly returned to the Northern Regions, but the king turned a blind eye to him. Until death ......"

Speaking of this, Su Jingnian's voice was a little empty, and she didn't continue to speak.

"Alas. Chen Hu sighed. Looking at the snow, he sang in a low voice.

The song sung is "Fixing the Storm".
