Chapter 59: The Enemy Finally Appears

Ye Lingxiao woke up from a coma, only to find himself lying in a simple room. 『』

The faint fragrance on the bed indicates that this is a woman's boudoir.

It didn't take long for a few moments before I heard a knock on the door, and a girl in simple clothes walked in.

I saw that her eyebrows were like daisies, her eyes were painted, her mouth was small and her nose was straight, her face was pretty, she was holding a bowl of hot porridge in both hands, and her eyebrows were full of worry.

"Hey, you're awake. Drink this bowl of porridge. The girl put the porridge on the table beside her, and was about to help Ye Lingxiao up.

"Girl, where is this" As soon as the words came out, Ye Lingxiao secretly said that she really couldn't speak, which was obviously the boudoir of other girls.

The girl smiled lightly, helped him up and sat down, and then picked up the bowl: "Don't worry, this is my home." ”

"No, I can't stay here." Ye Lingxiao suddenly remembered that Donghai Gong would never let him go, and now that he had mastered the power of the capital, in such a situation, he was afraid that staying here would bring great trouble to the girl.

"Alright, Night General. You're here to stay. The girl said angrily: "There are soldiers everywhere outside, where can you go when you go out?"

"How do you know"

"How could I not know that when you returned in triumph a few times ago, I saw Your Majesty welcome you into the city with my own eyes." The girl grinned and said, "I really didn't expect that the general would be so seriously injured." ”

Ye Lingxiao smiled bitterly: "If I am here, I am afraid that you will have a great disaster." ”

"Alright, you just stay here. I know there's a lot of searching for Assassins all over the city right now. But I don't believe you're going to assassinate you. The girl fed the porridge to Ye Lingxiao's mouth with a spoon: "Don't worry, those soldiers will come and I will deal with it." ”

"How do you deal with this" Ye Lingxiao was very worried, how could she deal with those wolf-like soldiers, she was a little woman

"Come, let's drink the porridge first." The girl had a gentle smile on her face, as if the soldiers searching the sky outside did not exist at all.

Ye Lingxiao had no choice but to finish the porridge.

"You wait a minute." The girl soon came back and got some paint, flour and the like, and then saw that she did not know what to do on the table.

"Here, put something on your face. If they find out here, don't find out. The girl smeared for a while, then took a mirror: "Look, I'll say later, you have smallpox, who of them dares to look at you closely"

Looking at the inside of the mirror beyond recognition, it seemed to be full of pustules in the dim light, and he couldn't even see his own appearance.

"No, I'll have to figure it out a bit, too." Then the girl looked at the mirror for a while, and when she turned her head, she also had some pustules on her pretty face, but it was much less than Ye Lingxiao: "Hehe, now they won't suspect it." I'll just say I'm infected by you. ”

Ye Lingxiao looked at the girl who was grimacing at herself, and she couldn't laugh or cry.

"It's just that the girl is so good-looking, and it is really tyrannical to accompany me to be like this." Ye Lingxiao was also in a slightly better mood and joked.

"You don't need a girl to be long and a girl is short, the little girl's name is Su Qingqing. Just call me by my name. Su Qingqing said with a smile.

Knock knock

"Open the door, open the door quickly. Search for the Assassins. "Outside, there was the sound of Eastern Navy soldiers slamming on the door.

"It's coming, it's coming. Wait a minute, Master Jun. Su Qingqing then walked out.

"Master Jun, what's the matter with you" Su Qingqing opened the door and said: "My husband and I both have smallpox, and my husband is dying, so I don't dare to go out these days, for fear of infecting the neighborhood." If you want to come in and search, please hide from my husband. Don't get infected. Master Jun, please. ”

As soon as the soldiers entered the door, they looked up when they heard this.

Through the dim light, the pustules on Su Qingqing's face were even more infiltrating, making their hearts hairy.

"Damn, it's unlucky, it's a smallpox one. Brother, I think let's go. "One of the soldiers was a little worried.

"But if we don't find out, we'll lose our heads when we go back." Another soldier objected.

"Then let's quickly check and leave."

"Okay. Little lady, is there anyone else in your husband's house?"

"Master Jun, my husband is in this house, if you want to come in and check, then come here." Su Qingqing opened the door generously and let the soldiers in.

But the soldiers looked at each other, but none of them stepped forward.

"Then that little lady, you go inside, stay away from our brother." Finally, a soldier spoke.

Su Qingqing then walked to the house and sat next to Ye Lingxiao.

When the soldiers looked at the door, they saw a face full of pustules, and in the dim light, their faces seemed to be pus-filled like Ye Lingxiao: "Oh my God." Hurry up, walk away, it's fucking unlucky. It's really smallpox, and it's at its strictest. Hurry up and check the other rooms and leave. ”

The soldiers hurriedly exited the room, ran to the other rooms to have a casual look, and then fled like crazy.

"General Hee Hee, look, I said don't worry" Su Qingqing grinned and went over to close the door: "It's just that I have to be wronged by the general to pretend to be a patient for a few more days." ”

"Thank you, young girl." Ye Lingxiao nodded, thanking him with some admiration. It's rare to be able to come up with such a solution and not panic in the slightest when those soldiers come.

Smoke Cloud City, Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, I have already rescued the people you asked me to rescue from the palace. Although he didn't know where he had gone in the end, at least he hadn't been caught when I came back. Ye Shi'er sat at the table and looked at the old man in front of her with white hair and a kind smile.

"Thank you, Your Excellency, for your help. It is a blessing to the peoples of both countries that you have an armistice and an agreement with our country. It's just that His Majesty is seriously ill and bedridden, and although the old man has conveyed the meaning of your country the day before yesterday, His Majesty's body is still not allowed to meet with his assistant. The Prime Minister sighed.

Ye Shi'er looked at the prime minister, and finally shook her head and said, "Since this is the case, then I have no choice but to return with regrets." If the emperor of your country is in good health, he can also send an envoy to the night moon to discuss this matter. I will come back then. ”

"Thank you for your help. Since Your Excellency is in a hurry to return, I will personally send your assistant out of the city early tomorrow morning. ”

There was chaos in Yanyun City, and thousands of miles away, the light cavalry led by Yun Qing had already rushed to the vicinity of Moshan.

"Lord Viscount, there is Mo Shan in front."

"Well, let a few brothers who know how to track the traces go in with me to see what is going on, and the others will wait here for a while." Yun Qing ordered.

Soon, more than a hundred former soldiers were selected, and these soldiers knew a little bit how to probe footprints and detect traces.

Yun Qing took more than 100 people into the mountain, and then ordered to disperse and investigate.

It didn't take long for several soldiers to report finding a large number of traces of men and horses.

"I'm heading north." Looking at the traces left on the ground, Yun Qing nodded: "Good job, let's continue to search, but everyone should be careful to hide and not be discovered by the enemy's sentinels." ”

"Don't worry, Lord Viscount. Our brothers are all hunters, and their methods of concealment in the mountains are much better than those of the steppe people. Guaranteed not to be detected. ”

"Don't underestimate them." Yun Qing instructed: "The enemy is not so simple. ”

After dispersing and probing again, Yunqing soon received a report.

"What do you say, they're already out of the mountain," Yun Qing's face changed slightly.

"Yes, Lord Viscount. Judging by the traces left behind, I am afraid it was three days ago. A soldier said.

Yun Qing took out the map and looked at it: "From Moshan to the north, what do they want to do, let's go, we must find out the enemy's movements, and now we can't count on the intelligence of the local nobles." ”

After returning, Yun Qing led the three thousand light horsemen to the north again.

"Jia Lin, what do you want to do when you say they are going north, there is a plain, and there are only a few hills, which is not conducive to hiding at all." After returning, Yun Qingbian led the army to consult with Jia Lin on the march.

"I don't know, they're going back and forth in this area over and over again, and they really seem to be looking for something, but what is worth it for them to do this, I really can't figure it out." Jia Lin shook her head, she couldn't figure out why, every time the troops of the Steppe Wolf Court looted a village, except for most of the villagers who escaped in time, the rest of the old and weak women and children were basically captured. Roughly calculated, they must have captured two or three thousand people.

With so many captives, instead of returning in a hurry, they turned back and forth on the land many times.

At this moment, one of the scouts sent out hurried over: "Report to Lord Viscount, in the northeast, I found the army of the Steppe Wolf Court, about a thousand people. They were chasing a group of villagers, who numbered about four thousand people. ”

"What brothers, let's rush to the rescue immediately." Yun Qing immediately ordered when he heard this.

As the army of the steppe wolf court got closer and closer to the villagers, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded from the knoll on the flank.

They turned their heads and saw about 3,000 Imperial cavalry rushing down from the hill.

"Meet the enemy, meet the enemy." The army of the Steppe Wolf Court is not afraid, the natural ability of their Iron Wolf Clan has made them one of the strongest cavalry in the continent, and they are naturally much more powerful than other peoples, so they have never been afraid of any army, except for the Holy Dragon Army led by Ye Lingxiao, so they have been helpless.

Sou

A powerful arrow shot like a meteor, directly shooting the thousand men who led the army off their horses.

This arrow came extremely quickly, and it was very sudden, and it immediately caused the army of the Steppe Wolf Court to lose its leader.

But in the moment when the soldiers of the Steppe Wolf Court were stunned, the soldiers of the coalition army had already rushed to about two hundred steps, and with Yun Qing's order, they took out their bows and arrows neatly, and pulled their bows and arrows.

"Shoot the arrows." With Yun Qing's order, the rain of arrows rained down on the soldiers of the Steppe Wolf Court.

The rain of arrows shot down directly injured more than 300 soldiers and more than 200 war horses. Immediately afterward, the coalition cavalry had already killed them, but the soldiers of the steppe wolf court were still in confusion
