Chapter 41: The Poisoning of the County Lord
"Woo woo woo~!" An urgent horn sounded from the direction of the West City Gate, and this special horn was only sounded when it was about to be overwhelmed. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info it is like a death knell, striking on everyone's hearts one by one.
Yun Feiyang was still searching everywhere for his mother's whereabouts, and he had searched almost every corner of the royal city. There is no one in life, and no corpse in death. In this life, the person who Yun Feiyang cares about the most is Concubine Hua. When he was ridiculed and scolded as a waste by everyone, only Concubine Hua regarded him as a treasure, whether it was for him to treat his illness or when he was bullied, Concubine Hua was his eternal reliance.
Every time I wake up, the first thing I see is definitely my mother.
When bullied by the children and grandchildren of other princes or ministers, the gentle and benevolent Concubine Hua is like an angry lioness. Yun Feiyang still remembers that once, the crown prince and the third prince teamed up to beat herself, but she was seen by Concubine Hua, who chased and slashed the prince and the third prince with a sword like crazy. For this matter, Concubine Hua was sued by the queen for a black face, and as a result, she received 20 boards.
……
"Feiyang, you immediately lead a group of elites to escape from the north gate, you can't stand it!" The Nihuang County Lord's robe was stained with blood, her helmet had fallen off, her jet-black hair was scattered, and her left arm had a huge and shocking wound.
Sou!
A sharp arrow was fired, and one of the guards slashed it with a knife tied to the end of the arrow.
"Those who surrender will not be killed, and those who open the city gate will be rewarded by His Royal Highness!"
This was just one of the arrows with a note tied to it, and there were many similar arrows of persuasion, which had only one effect: to break the resistance of the warriors and the people of the city.
"Nihuang, tell all the warriors that you just need to hold on tonight, and tomorrow the army will retreat! I will never leave the royal city until my mother is found! Yun Feiyang's tone was firm and calm, the 800,000 army sounded terrifying, but for him, the god of war, he was not afraid.
In order to reach the royal capital as quickly as possible, when the second prince Yun Zhan was marching, all the logistics materials were behind, and it would take at least three days to transport them. The 800,000 troops only brought enough food for about two days.
Although he didn't know where Yun Feiyang got such a big confidence, the Nihuang County Lord was still convinced, and nodded heavily, half concerned, half ordered, "If the city gate is lost, I don't care what reason you have, you must escape from the north gate or the secret passage as soon as possible." After saying that, she urged her to get off her horse and hurried to the west gate, which was about to be lost.
"Good!" Yun Feiyang nodded in agreement, and led people to continue to search for his mother's whereabouts.
In the royal city, you can see people everywhere who are carrying burdens and want to flee for their lives. This also makes it much more difficult for Yun Feiyang to find people.
Looking at the back of the Nihuang County Lord, Yun Feiyang felt guilty in his heart, and he was also a little inexplicably distressed. This beautiful woman could have taken no risks with herself, but she did not hesitate. Even in the face of dozens of times the enemy's strength, with little hope of victory, she still ran to the forefront.
She hadn't even looked at the wound on her left arm just now.
"Nihuang, you first bandage the wound on your left arm, at this time, you can't fall!" Yun Feiyang shouted at her back.
"Shut your crow's mouth!" Nihuang cursed, and quickly disappeared around the corner of the alleyway ahead.
The entire royal city and the four city gates were fiercely attacked, and the shouts of killing shook the sky. There are too many troops on the side of the second prince, and under the tactics of crowds, the defenders of Wangcheng can't withstand it at all. The enemy is like a tidal wave, wave after wave, killing and destroying endlessly. And the soldiers of the Forbidden Army and the Wuji Legion, due to the limited number, as the number of casualties increased, even the rotation of people was gone.
One by one, they could only grit their teeth and resist, and from time to time someone was hit by an arrow or cut by the enemy who climbed up to the top of the city.
Night has finally fallen, which is definitely the best signal for the soldiers defending the city. After dark, the enemy will definitely return to the camp to rest, and will attack again tomorrow. Because at night, the eyesight is blocked, and the difficulty of the siege is increased exponentially. As long as the enemy retreats, they can finally rest. Many fighters, even if they were slightly injured, still gritted their teeth and persevered.
In front of a rockery in the palace, thirty men dressed in black stood quietly.
"Flying Leopard, whether the royal city can be defended or not, and whether the enemy army retreats, is all up to you! Remember, no matter what means are used, their grain and grass must be burned. I will order the warriors defending the city to draw the attention of the enemy and relieve you of the pressure. Yun Feiyang's face sank like water, and his tone was solemn.
These thirty people were all dead soldiers selected by him, led by the flying leopard. Success, not failure.
Seeing the flying leopard and the others quickly enter the secret passage under the rockery, Yun Feiyang left.
He was to rush to the four gates of the city, to comfort the soldiers, to cheer them up, and at the same time to order a group of men to shout and feint at the head of the city to attract the attention of the enemy.
The Nihuang still held on, running to the forefront, directing the soldiers to fight.
"Nihuang, you're tired for a day, go and bandage the wound first, eat something, I'll keep an eye on it here!" Yun Feiyang ordered without refusal. A soldier passed by with a torch, and Yun Feiyang suddenly noticed that Nihuang's face was not quite right, and his lips were a little black.
What he said, Nihuang didn't seem to hear.
Yun Feiyang, who had been tortured by strange poison for sixteen years, was extremely sensitive to poison, and he chuckled in his heart, and immediately realized that the Nihuang County Lord might have been poisoned.
"Nihuang, Nihuang......" he walked in front of Nihuang and shouted loudly. Only then did the Nihuang County Lord react, looking at him, he barely squeezed out a smile, "Feiyang, we finally survived!" "The enemy's offensive is noticeably less violent, and it is estimated that in a quarter or so of an hour they will all return to their tents to rest.
Her body shook suddenly, and she almost fell headlong.
Yun Feiyang hurriedly held her fragrant shoulder, and he could feel that her body was trembling violently, as if she was shivering. It was almost more certain that she was poisoned, but she was bent on completing the task assigned by Yun Feiyang and defending the royal city. He only thought about commanding the soldiers against the enemy, so he didn't notice his own situation. Maybe she had already found out that something was wrong with her body, and she just gritted her teeth and persisted.
"I, no, it's ......," she barely said these words, her eyes darkened, and she fainted.
Finding that the Nihuang County Lord had fainted, the two lieutenant generals also hurriedly surrounded him.
"The Nihuang County Lord is poisoned, what the hell is going on?" Yun Feiyang asked the two generals that if they wanted to detoxify, they must know what poison she was poisoned and how she was poisoned, so that she could prescribe the right medicine.
And her condition is very bad, and she must be treated immediately.
"Your Highness, the county lord was shot and wounded by a one-eyed man from the enemy army. At that time, Yun Zhan deliberately shouted and asked you to go to the city to talk to him. The county lord knew that you were looking for Concubine Hua Niangniang, and he was also worried that the other party had some tricks, so he didn't tell you, but she personally came forward to stand at the head of the city and talk to Yun Zhan......"
It turned out that Yun Zhan really had a conspiracy, and before he could say a word, the one-eyed middle-aged man beside him suddenly released a cold arrow. The man's archery skills were extremely accurate, and an arrow hit the left arm of the Nihuang County Lord.
After listening, Yun Feiyang's face was very gloomy, he was well-read and well-memorized, and he knew more about the strange people and wonders of the Chu State. If memory serves, the one-eyed man should be the legendary 'One-eyed Arrow', who is said to be unparalleled in archery and good at poisoning.
After a little investigation, Yun Feiyang found that in just a few moments, the situation of the Nihuang County Lord was even worse, his pulse was much weaker, and his breathing became short and short. It must be treated immediately, otherwise it will definitely die.
