Chapter 184: Broken (3)
Got rid of those people so easily, Linglong thought that she would be caught, but she didn't expect Wen Zhu to have this ability. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info But what kind of ability is this? The ability to escape?
They ran for a long time deeper into the woods, and it was strange that this seemingly small place was still wandering around the woods. Linglong looked around, watching as Wenzhu was marking the trunk of the tree.
"What are you doing?"
Wen Zhu was startled, the stone in his hand slipped and fell to the ground, he quickly picked it up and continued to draw the talisman, "Let's draw a symbol on the trunk, and then we won't get lost." I've made such simple and easy-to-understand symbols along the way, princess, we're sure we'll be able to get out. At this time, Linglong knew why those people chased after him so quickly.
"Don't draw it, you said that these symbols are simple and easy to understand, and not only us, but also the people who are chasing us can understand it. Wouldn't it be revealing your whereabouts?"
Wen Zhu suddenly realized, and then immediately crossed out those symbols with stones, "I'm sorry, princess, I didn't even expect that those people before that wouldn't have been attracted by me, right?" Wen Zhu looked embarrassed, looked at Linglong and smirked, and then secretly threw the stones behind him. He really looks like a child.
"By the way, princess, where are we going now?" Wen Zhu followed, looking behind him a few times from time to time, and only when he found that there was no one in his mind did he continue to stride forward.
"Go to the city of flowers. ”
"What!" Wen Zhu looked incredulous, "Princess, we finally escaped from the pursuers, wouldn't we go to Huacheng to fall into the net?"
"Not necessarily, not really, the most dangerous place is the safest place. ”
Wen Zhu muttered, "Then you can't jump into the fire pit by yourself......"
The reason why Linglong decided to go to Huacheng was naturally not simply to escape from the current pursuers, but that she was worried that her elderly father, who was already inconvenient in his legs and feet, was now sent to Huacheng by the Holy Lord to guard it, and she was really relieved. Besides, if she escaped like this, she would definitely bring a lot of trouble to Yude, and she might be able to help something if she went to Huacheng.
In Huacheng, it has already become an ant on a hot pot, and the saint originally asked the prince to guard Huacheng, but who expected the prince to suddenly disappear, and no one knows where he went. A group of people, like a group of leaderless stragglers, demoralized.
"General Shen, judging from the speed of the enemy's attack, there are less than three days before we will reach Huacheng. Right now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hasn't arrived yet, how can this be good?"
Standing on the city wall, overlooking the grass and trees outside the flower city, for some reason, the heart that should have been nervous suddenly relaxed. General Shen has experienced a lot of things in his life, fought a lot of victories, and naturally has repeatedly wandered between life and death, but now that he is old, in the face of this war, it seems that he has lost his previous impassionedness.
He said lightly, "How many people are there in Flower City?"
"About two thousand. ”
"The enemy army has a total of 3,000 men, and there is plenty of food and grass, and there are many long-range sharpshooters, so this battle will only be difficult to fight. ”
The officer beside him frowned slightly, and then asked in a tentative tone, "How sure is the general?"
"Thirty percent. ”
"Is the general modest, although the enemy army is said to have 3,000 people, but there are also 2,000 soldiers in my Yudu, besides, people are attacking, our side is defending, thirty percent, is it inevitably lower?" The corners of the officer's mouth rose slightly, and his eyes glanced at General Shen on the side, he didn't look like he was joking.
"First, my Yujun soldiers lost several games in a row, lost the border city, and their morale weakened, minus one percent; second, most of the archers in the enemy army, and they were all in the prime of life, and my two thousand people also added the innocent people of Huacheng, and then subtracted one percent. Do you have any questions?"
The officer's smile suddenly froze, his expression became solemn, and he bowed and said, "My subordinates understand." "General Shen is a person who has experienced many major wars, so he naturally understands this military victory or defeat, if he says that it is only 30%, it means that this battle is difficult to fight, but it is not necessarily lost; if he says 50%, then he is completely sure.
It's just that there is really only a 30% chance of winning this battle, and this time General Shen didn't talk nonsense.
"General Shen, someone just went to your mansion to look for you, saying that it was your old friend. ”
General Shen's brows were glued together, and then he suddenly stretched out and walked quickly towards the city.
Standing at the door of his mansion was Ouyang Changshi, who had disappeared for a long time, and there was a woman beside him.
"Uncle Shen!" Ouyang Changshi's complexion was just right, wearing a cyan robe, and he still looked like a scholarly and angry.
General Shen patted him on the shoulder, and for a while he was a little speechless, and it took a long time to ease up, "Changshi, it's really good that you're okay." ”
"Ouyang Changshi?" The officer behind him was suddenly startled, "Could it be that fugitive, Ouyang Changshi, who once committed treason?"
"Shut up!" General Shen's voice immediately raised, "Get back for me!" The officer was a little angry, and his embarrassed expression made everyone see it, in fact, he was not wrong, Ouyang Changshi was indeed a fugitive, and it was indeed rumored that he was a traitor.
"Changshi, let's say it!" General Shen turned around with a smile again, it seemed that General Shen couldn't be clearer about Ouyang Changshi.
"Uncle Shen, I learned about the rebellion of the Zhou State and came to Huacheng to find you. I hope I can do something to help. ”
"Changshi, in fact, if this flower city can be defended, it is really not something you can solve!" General Shen sighed lightly and took a sip of the tea next to him.
"Uncle Shen, there is actually something I have to tell you. He pulled the masked woman beside him and said, "Actually, this is the real Princess Yuqing, the youngest daughter of King Zhou." ”
General Shen looked at the woman, although she couldn't see her clearly, but the eyes she revealed were extremely watery, her eyes closed slightly, and then slowly lowered the veil. Her appearance is indeed extraordinary, but if she is the daughter of King Zhou, who is that in the palace?
"Changshi, what the hell is going on?"
"Uncle Shen, Yuqing and I met in the border city, and we fell in love at first sight, but King Zhou and Yudu got married, so she thought of a way to escape the marriage. ”
General Shen's brows furrowed again, "So, the one in the palace is just marrying the Nine Emperor Princes instead of the princess?"
Zhou Yuqing nodded and said, "Exactly." I knew that my father's rebellion would definitely implicate the innocent woman, and I just learned that General Shen was stationed in Huacheng, so I wanted to come here to help stop my father. ”
"The princess is going to help Yudu?"
Zhou Yuqing still maintained a faint smile, "The general may not believe it, but the Zhou State has always been built with integrity for hundreds of years, and my father's move has been said by the whole Zhou country, and I really can't bear to see my father's wisdom ruined." ”
General Shen was originally worried, but this time he met Ouyang Changshi, and then met the real princess of Zhou Kingdom, and then he seemed to be able to increase his confidence a lot.
