Sikong Yan rode a horse and approached the pass, and the defenders saw that it was him and hurriedly opened the door. I took him all the way to meet the guards.

"How is it going. Sikong Yan looked at the total five generals in front of him. There were a total of twelve passes in the capital, and of the six generals in the west, he had mastered five.

One of them said, "According to the master's strategy, he has successfully retreated from the enemy." The news brothers also swallowed in their stomachs, and the Holy Lord would definitely not get the news. ”

"You've done a great job. Sikong Yan clasped his fists and saluted the generals, showing enough trust in them. After that, he went up to the castle tower with everyone to inspect it. The generals told him in detail about the deployment here, but Sikong Yan suddenly stopped, looked at the dark grass under the city tower, and frowned.

"You're ambushing people down there?"

The generals looked at each other, unable to understand how Sikong Yan saw this. "Yes, thirty percent of the troops are in the grass, ambushing the enemy and preventing them from attacking the city late at night. ”

Sikong Yan said in a deep voice, "Let them come up, their metal armor is reflective, and it will only expose themselves." "Actually, there is no need to set up too heavy defenses in the west, and the target of Qiuzi is not in the west. "No matter what happens, don't let the soldiers out of the city. It can only be defended, not attacked. ”

The two generals left to call for someone, and one of the remaining ones said, "Sir, the last general doesn't know that there will be enemy troops, should we inform him?"

Sikong Yan shook his head and said, "No need, it doesn't matter if his pass is broken or not." Just one thing you have to be careful, when the brothers below come back, be sure to tap the number of people. ”

The three of them should be in unison. With Sikong Yan's victory in anticipating the enemy, they are already full of admiration for this literati. I can't understand why a person who is so familiar with the art of war.

Seeing what they were thinking, Sikong Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, he didn't know so much about military affairs at the beginning, just to assist the five princes, he had to understand, and he really began to study these carefully, he learned from his subordinates that Sakura had set up a very clever formation in the south.

So he really started to look at these things that couldn't be compared to his own eight poles.

In fact, since that time, he has cared about her very much, but he was afraid that he would not be able to give her the best future, so he ignored the emotions in his heart for a while.

Sikong Yan sighed, if he and Sakura could do it all over again, he would definitely tie her firmly to his side from the beginning, and he would have to get her people and her heart. As for now, when he wants to take care of her by her side, he can't get out.

Sikong Yan went down to the city tower and asked his subordinates downstairs, "How long will it take for the five princes to get here?"

"No news yet. ”

Sikong Yan was frowning, and suddenly there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and Jiang Xu came just in time.

Sikong Yan turned on his horse and asked Jiang Xu, who was panting, "Have you received the news from the north?"

Jiang Xu gasped, "I got it, but I haven't had time to see it yet." ”

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the other party was the future emperor, Sikong Yan would have wanted to beat people. If you are in a hurry, you can not even read the news in your hand. "Let's go, go to Luo Xingyan. ”

At this moment, in the cold palace.

"King Qiuzi also appreciates his talent, and the ancient sages still know how to choose good birds and perch on trees......"

Si Kou Qingling has used language skills to force Li Guifei to say everything, not only did she get a more detailed thriller inside story than Shen Lanying described, but she was also lobbied by this ninth-rate woman to commit treason.

Si Kou Qingling sneered, stood up, and said to the door, "General Cheng Yuan, please." ”

After speaking, he nodded to Cheng Yuan, who walked in, and then left the cold palace with a gloomy atmosphere.

When Li Guifei saw the military general in golden armor, she felt that something was wrong, she was imprisoned in the cold palace, and thought that Cheng Yuan was just the small leader of the Imperial Forest Army, and she didn't know that he had become the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, the emperor's imperial guard.

Cheng Yuan's face was like frost, he pulled out his sword from his waist, and walked towards Li Guifei with a surprised face, no, to be precise, she was no longer a concubine.

"The emperor has an order that those who hold this sword can cut it first and then play. ”

After speaking, the hand is raised......

Si Kou Qingling knew that after Li Guifei's death, the second prince was forced to a dead end, and he would definitely jump over the wall to force the palace. But her move was not a surprise, because even if she didn't do anything, Qiuzi's army would arrive in the capital in the near future.

From Li Guifei's mouth, Si Kou Qingling learned that there were spies from Linghai and Qiuzi in the northern army, and when many generals in the north returned to Beijing to resume their lives, the spies had already set a trap, just waiting for the generals to jump into the pit after returning to the north.

If the Luo family brothers and sisters are here, with their familiarity with the north, they may be able to crack their scheme, but only Dongfang Li will return to the north. He has always only focused on leading troops, and does not understand the character of many small bosses.

Si Kou Qingling left the palace and ordered the coachman to rush to Luo Xingyan's residence as quickly as possible.

Lifting the curtain of the car and looking back at the white fish belly in the east, Si Kou Qingling knew that in fact, everything was too late, and those terrible things had already happened.

At this moment, Dongfang Li's house.

There was a crunch. The cup in Luo Xingyan's hand was crushed by her, and the battle report in her other hand slowly slipped from her hand and floated to the ground.

A tear hit the paper with a heartbreaking sound.

"Ah Li, Ah Li, aren't you invincible, how could it be, how could it be like this......"

Linghai rebelled, occupied Yanping Pass, 100,000 troops in the north were buried alive by the enemy, and Dongfang Li disappeared.

What does it mean to be missing? Either the body was not found, or it was captured, and with Ah Li's temperament, how could he let himself fall into the hands of the enemy?

Luo Xingyan's face was bloodless, his body trembled slightly, he squatted down, picked up the battle report on the ground with difficulty, and continued to read.

Qiuzi and Linghai fought together, and had already led 100,000 troops to the south, fighting with scattered soldiers, and the marching speed was extremely fast, not much slower than the speed of the Yong Dynasty to send war reports, so it would not be long before the capital should be in the city.

"Madame, ma'am. The maid cried out in horror, not knowing what had happened.

Luo Xingyan raised his face, let the tears slide down the sides of his cheeks, and in just a few seconds, he looked at the maid, there was no more pain in his eyes, but a terrifying calmness, "Bring my gun, prepare the horse." ”

The maid ran away in a panic, and Luo Xingyan looked at the fifth prince again, with a kind of firmness in his eyes.

Jiang Xu hurriedly said, "General, don't worry, we will defend the capital." ”

Luo Xingyan didn't say anything, but knelt down slowly and solemnly in front of Jiang Xu.

Three bows and nine knocks, see the emperor's etiquette.

Then he took his usual spear from the maid's hand, kissed her sleeping daughter at the bedside, and left the place that haunted her.
