Chapter 202: The Queen and the General

"I didn't expect that the people my father transferred to us were all elites. Chu Xianzhao turned his head back to look at the cavalry team like a long dragon: "This five thousand Eagle Tuo Cavalry is no worse than the Wind Eagle Iron Cavalry.

"You are his precious son, let you face such a dangerous country, if you really lay down the city of rest, the territory of the Yin country will be extended from the northwest of the world to the central region, adjacent to the country of dragons, such an obvious strategic advantage, can you not mobilize elite troops?" Hua Youyue asked rhetorically.

Chu Xianzhao looked up at the white eagle flag that was swept in the wind, and the flag was surging like a wave. He looked at the clouds in the sky and shook his head violently, he always had some very strange dreams these days, dreaming that he was standing in the middle of a battlefield full of corpses, and saw a woman falling from a high platform to the ground, every time he was awakened by a nightmare, Hua Youyue would wipe his sweat with a handkerchief, bear with it, I am in so much pain like you, she said to herself.

Having said that, he really didn't know how to slash the sword in his hand at the living people, and command the army to break through the gates of the enemy country, he felt that the Tai'a sword in his waist was like a restless demon, longing to see blood and tears, and he could only use his flesh and blood as a cage to imprison him, and one day, this demon would wake up from his body singing a song of sword and fire, and everywhere he went, he would be destroyed.

"Your Highness, we can already see the foot of the mountain, and we can see the stream. Two cavalrymen came to Chu Youyue's side to report, Chu Zhaozhao looked up at them, these two are twin brothers, Hua Youyue specially arranged them as his guards, it is said that they are Hua Youyue's mother's side, the eldest brother is named Qian Yi, and the younger brother is named Qian Li, the faces of the two are full of childishness, he couldn't tell who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother at first, Qian Yi simply tied a red ribbon on his head to facilitate Chu Xianzhao's identification.

The elder brother has a calm personality, in the words of the younger brother, it is as dull as wood, they should be the same age as themselves, maybe younger than themselves, but they are already about to wield their swords and run to the battlefield, in such a troubled world, there is no way to do it, but the tense atmosphere around him cannot affect the liveliness of his younger brother Qian Li, he is not as careful as his brother to himself, he chats with himself non-stop along the way, and many strange ideas in his brain make Chu Xianzhao laugh.

He didn't know where to pick a lot of berries and brought them to Chu Xianzhao, the berries tasted sweet and sour, and half an hour after Chu Xianzhao finished eating, a large rash appeared on his neck, which almost caused a riot, and then the two brothers had a big quarrel and never spoke again.

"Your Highness, I see the stream, there are a lot of fish there, wait until I catch a few fish for you, and you will be able to eat the grilled fish in a while. Qian Li wiped the beads of sweat from the tip of his nose.

"You dare to take something for Your Highness to eat! If you eat it badly, Your Highness will not be able to apologize for dying a hundred times!" Brother Qian Yi finally became angry, clenched his horsewhip and pointed at his younger brother and scolded, and the other party muttered: "I eat more berries than Your Highness, why don't you see me have a rash?" Maybe it's food in the army

There's a problem, right, Your Highness?"

"Let you look at the road and know that you want to eat. Qian Yi finally got angry, kicked his younger brother off the horse, and the young man rolled in the grass, got up and patted the grass on his body, and looked at Chu Xianzhao with a smile.

"I really can't help you. He glared at his younger brother, and Hua Youyue smiled, "You are exactly the same as when you were a child. ”

"That's not kind, cousin, we are the personal guards of the third prince of Chu, and the military orders are ruthless, this is not child's play. Qian Yi said solemnly, and the red ribbon on his forehead was raised.

Hua Youyue smiled and suddenly pulled the reins, the horses under her crotch slowed down, the woman looked around carefully, and said to Instantaneous: "Instantaneous, the army has traveled nearly a hundred miles in a hurry, and the soldiers are also tired, and now they are close to the foot of the mountain, and this vision is wide and the water source is sufficient, let's set up camp here and rest for a night." ”

Chu Xianzhao nodded, looked around at the same time, and looked at the banner bearer beside him: "Order the soldiers in the rear, camp here tonight, let the soldiers have a good rest, cross the Yunjian River early tomorrow morning, and arrive at Jingnan City in one go!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

The moonlight was like a graceful veil, passing through layers of black clouds, falling on the sharp long knives on the waists of the soldiers, the bright blades of the guards outside the cowhide camp tent flashed, reflecting the scorching firelight, the torches on the wall crackled, Chu Xianzhao and Hua Youyue looked at the map on the long table, and the two were extremely silent tonight.

The woman was wearing a thin white robe, with a simple black rope to tie her slender waist, Chu Xianzhao looked at the map under the firelight in silence, she looked at the boy's angular side face, and her heart moved slightly, how could she be so like him, especially the contemplative look, she thought to herself.

"Instantaneously, we will be able to cross the Yunjian River tomorrow, and we will be able to reach this city tomorrow night at the latest, I have already sent a carrier pigeon to Nangong Mingyue, the city lord of Jingnan City, do you have any other ideas?" Hua Youyue asked.

"I was thinking that if Yan Fu sent troops to attack Jingnan City, they would only have two ways to go to Jingnan City, one was to cross the mountains and cross the Tiehe Mountain, but the terrain there was steep, and there were legends that there were all kinds of ghosts and monsters in the mountains and forests, tigers and wolves. If their destination is Tiehe Mountain, we can reach Jingnan City before they do, and lay many obstacles to place elite troops to defend the city......"

"Or go north directly, Emperor Yan Fu led the warrior army directly into Gentian Pass, there is no trickery and strategy, directly face to face with us, but this just provides us with a good charge distance for the iron cavalry of the Yin Kingdom, but Chai Long looks not so stupid, Yan Fu's soldiers are not good at fighting in the plains, their advantage is in the mountains and forests, the shadow warriors come and go like ghosts, and this is only two hundred miles away from Tiehe Mountain, I am afraid that they will launch a surprise attack on us. Hua Youyue said in a heavy tone, and her beautiful long hair was tied with a hair rope and left behind her long braids.

Chu Xianzhao pondered for a moment, and then said: "Why don't we send a small team of people and horses to wander around Tiehe Mountain,

One is to detect the enemy's situation, and the other is to use it as a suspicious soldier, so that the Yanyu people think that we did not cross the Yunjian River to reach Jingnan City, but chose Tiehe Mountain. ”

Hua Youyue looked at him with satisfaction, Chu Xianzhao didn't waste his hard work in learning the art of war with her these days, his father said to himself when he was a child, if he wanted to be a general, he couldn't just rely on force to conquer the world, and the strategy of the art of war was also very important, she had only learned some fur over the years, and she was still handy when she used it herself, but it was a bit reluctant to teach her as a teacher, and when I thought of it before, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to teach Chu Xianzhao well, but now I watched Chu Xianzhao analyze the military situation, and the organization gradually became clear, and her thoughts often coincided with herself, so I felt a lot more relieved。

I have liked hero stories since I was a child, I love weapons more than women, there are a lot of bundles of war books in the study, my sister's dream is to marry the emperor, and she can be the mother of a country in the future, so she always likes to joke about herself: "What's the use of you reading so many books, do you want to be a general in the future? Girls only need to marry a good family." ”

Every time my sister said this, she would always be sulking for her sister for several days, and she thought to herself that if there is anything difficult about the general, she should show you in the future.

Later, he really became a general, and his sister also became a queen, but he only did it for less than a year, after Chu Xiaohua killed his brother, his sister hanged himself in Fengqing Palace with a white silk, and then the entire Hua family was left alone.

Your sister wants to be a queen, you want to be a general, you are all good, you are all good daughters of the Hua family...... These were the last words my mother said to herself before she died.

I became a general, and my sister became an empress...... She couldn't help but feel sad.

"Teacher, General Hua, Sister Hua, are you listening to me?" Hua Youyue came back to her senses, and Chu Xianzhao's face was suddenly in front of her, and her slender forehead hair was lazily placed in front of her forehead, "Hey...... No, you ......" She suddenly shouted out and startled Chu Xianzhao, and then she suddenly fell into some kind of embarrassment, pretending to be serious: "What else do you have not explained?"

"It's nothing, the specific military operation has to wait for us to go to Jingnan City before it is implemented, the teacher has a good rest, and he has to hurry early tomorrow morning." Chu Xianzhao thought about it, made sure that he didn't have anything to say, and planned to get up and leave the camp.

"Chu Xuanzhao!" Hua Youyue suddenly called his name, he looked at the woman next to the firelight and asked, "Is there anything else?"

For some reason, Hua Youyue sighed softly, got up and walked to her purple bamboo bookcase, slowly took out a book, and handed it to Chu Xuanzhao.

"This is a gift from my father, the art of war summarized by General Hua Mingkaku based on the large and small battles he has participated in throughout his life, I know that you have Wang Xi in your body, and there are some detailed studies and records of Wang Xi in it, I think it may be helpful to you. She stuffed the book into Chu Xianzhao's hand, and under the reflection of the firelight, Chu Xianzhao couldn't notice the crimson on her face.

Chu instantly summoned

After reading through the military dictionary carefully, my father told himself and his brother more than once the story of this protector general, which recorded every war that Hua Ming Pavilion participated in, and even had illustrations of battle formations on it, as well as some post-war experiences, large and small battles added up to more than a hundred, and it can be regarded as a hundred battles.

"General Hua Mingge is a famous general of the Yin Kingdom, and he can only look up and not surpass it. Chu Xianzhao held the military code tightly and mentioned his father, Hua Youyue's tears suddenly burst out of his eyes: "Yes...... He is a famous general of the Yin Kingdom...... Meng Yu and Bai Yun were both disciples he taught single-handedly...... Originally, he was supposed to be disarmed and return to the field and enjoy his old age in peace......"

"As a man, he is worthy of heaven and earth, and can die on the battlefield for his country, in fact, he has long looked down on life and death, and he feels that he has done what he should do, and it is also the right thing to do, to die for your father after the Tiannu River is broken...... But he ...... It's my father. She turned her head away, and gradually turned her back to Chu Xuanzhao.

"You're his daughter...... If he were still alive, he would be proud to see you as you are. Chu instantly wanted to speak and stopped.

"No! the way I look now will only disappoint him. The woman's tears were even more turbulent, he put his hand on Hua Youyue's shoulder, and the next moment it bounced away, he realized that the woman in front of him was not Su Nianyu or Guan Ju, there should be a distance between them, and at the same time he thought to himself that the teacher was always so melancholy because he had too many things on his mind.

"I ...... It's really gone, don't be so sad, there are still many people around you, like Ye Weiwei and Su Nianyu, no matter what happens, we will accompany you. ”

The woman nodded lightly, Chu Xuanzhao slowly withdrew from the camp, and Hua Youyue suddenly shouted, "Instantly call me ......"

"Anything else?"

"Thank you...... Then trust me. ”

Chu Xianzhao turned his head and smiled, his smile was very warm, like the morning sun sprinkled on his face, this kind of smile could make the girls' hearts beat more than once, Su Nianyu once said to him that if Chu Xianzhao showed such a smile to a thousand girls, nine hundred and ninety-nine would fall in love with him, and the remaining one would definitely be blind.

It's a pity that Hua Youyue can't see his smile, because tears have blurred her eyes.

Chu Xianzhao walked out of the cowhide tent and looked up at the bright moonlight, he suddenly caught an extremely faint spot of light, Chu Zhaozhao subconsciously thought it was a firefly or something, but at this time, this spot of light appeared on the extremely high clouds, like a prayer lantern or something, but who would put a prayer lantern in the mountain for no reason?

In the next moment, he realized that there was a great mistake in his thinking, and the person who put this lamp was not making a wish to the gods and Buddhas, but more like releasing a signal, a signal!

Chu Xianzhao was stunned, and his face changed: "Teacher!"

"What's the matter?" Hua Youyue lifted the curtain and walked to Chu Xuanzhao's side, she wiped her tears and looked at the boy's line of sight.

More spots of light appeared in the clouds, in the thousands

The lanterns follow the night breeze to the sky, and when they reach a certain altitude, they hover, like the arrival of a thousand stars.

Both of them saw the golden chrysanthemum pattern on the prayer lantern!

"Damn!" her pupils constricted to the tip of a needle, and a bright rocket shot into the eyes of the nearest guard, who fell to the ground before he could even let out a wail.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" Chu Xuanzhao shouted at the top of his throat, and a sharp sound of breaking the air sounded from behind him, and Hua Youyue threw him to the ground, helping him avoid the deadly feather arrow.

When he received the attack, Chu Xianzhao immediately regretted it, he and Hua Youyue should not have set up a tent in such a remote place to talk about the war, and only sent a few dozen soldiers to guard themselves, they were half a mile away from the large army, and it was difficult to convey what was happening now.

The faces of the two were pressed tightly together, and Hua Youyue gritted her teeth and shouted, "Instant call, the teacher will take you to the first lesson!"

The young man nodded vigorously, more arrows came from all directions, and the extremely perfect circle of the dragon sparrow out of the sheath appeared in Chu Xuanzhao's hand, in the pale moonlight, the sword body flashed with a strange black glow, and then turned into a blazing white glow, Chu instantly summoned the sword to cover Wang Xi on the sword body, and the feather arrow was completely blocked by this force.

Hua Youyue pulled out the command sword that Emperor Yinhuang gave her, she hadn't used a sword for a long time, and she didn't know if her swordsmanship was as good as before.
