Mu Qing's anxiety really came to an end a few days later, so fast that she was a little caught off guard.

Although the King of Qin was ill, in order not to cut off his ears and eyes, Du Ruhui sent two scouts every other day to inquire around the high jaw. The first two scouts came back and reported that Xue Ju had sent his eldest son, Xue Rengao, to guard the high jaw and garrison the troops, and the Xue military camp was as calm as water and did not move at all.

One after another, it is this return, and it remains the same. Until the day before yesterday, the scout who came back reported an anomaly. Xue Ju, who was stationed still, suddenly began to withdraw from the camp, because he did not dare to get too close, the scouts did not listen to the news from the side, only saw a few hundred soldiers staying in the camp from a distance, at most five hundred.

In the afternoon of the next day, the urgent military newspaper was sent to the big tent overnight. The military newspaper came from Ningzhou, and the newly appointed Ningzhou assassin Shi urgently reported that Xue Rengao besieged Ningzhou. At this time, Du Ruhui suddenly woke up, Xue Rengao withdrew the army, and he originally went out to attack Ningzhou. And at present, there are only a few hundred Xue troops stationed in the high jaw, and it is almost empty.

Li Shimin immediately personally wrote two copies of the book, and sent two generals who could speak well in the army to Chang'an, while urgently ordering the whole army to march to Gaojaw again.

This time, it was different from the marching formation when it was withdrawn a month ago, and the front and arrow formations were arranged, and the elite cavalry was placed at the front of the formation, galloping all the way.

In the early hours of the morning, three or five hundred Xue soldiers stationed in the high jaw, faintly felt something wrong in the camp, walked out of the tent, gathered to the edge of the camp to look, only heard a little rumbling sound from the ground, I don't know if their own soldiers and horses returned from Ningzhou, want to see clearly, but in front of the woodland is a morning mist, milky white mist is misty and entangled, ten steps away can not see.

The two teams leading the garrison consulted, summoned two soldiers, led two horses, and ordered them to ride into the forest to investigate.

The two soldiers went about a cup of tea, but they still did not come out, as if they had disappeared as soon as they entered the fog, and there was no movement. The team was puzzled and a little uneasy in their hearts, and was about to assemble to defend themselves against the enemy, when they suddenly jumped out of the forest and rode out, waving one hand wildly, shouting in their mouths, they couldn't hear what they were saying, it was one of the two soldiers who had just been sent to check.

The team only felt that their heads were confused, and they knew that it was not good, and it was too late to lead people to retreat. Dozens of soldiers riding black horses and armor jumped out of the forest almost at the same time, like ghosts, suddenly appeared, and the soldier who ran in front of him howled as if he was being chased by a powerful ghost.

Most of the Xue soldiers didn't have time to turn around to get their weapons, and with a "poof", the cold sharp iron spearhead had pierced into the back and penetrated out from the chest, and they didn't even have time to notice the pain, and the spear withdrew from the body, and the body fell with the momentum, and then never got up again.

Dark clouds crossed the border, and there was a burst of assassination, and they lay on the ground in a mess. At most, there was a dead silence in Xue Jun's camp. When it was scorching heat, the strong bloody gas quickly dispersed, not to mention drifting out for a mile or two. The camp, which had just quieted down, soon became noisy again, and mosquitoes and flies that had come from a distance, smelling the smell, rushed to the spot.

In such weather, it is extremely dangerous to pile up corpses near the camp. The soldiers who arrived after the Xuanjia army did not dare to slack off, and one team carried the corpses onto the baggage carts found in the camp, and the other team quickly dug a huge deep pit in the open space two miles away, only to burn the pit and bury the matter after the corpses were gathered. Another team entered the original camp to clean up the remnants and rearrange the fortifications such as the Horse Tribulus terrestris.

The whole camp will be cleaned up, and the mighty 20,000 soldiers on the avenue will appear from the loess dust raised, and the leader of the troops is the king of Qin, who has recovered from a serious illness. Li Gong, who was already sitting on the throne in Chang'an City, did not send a single soldier to him after all, but fortunately, he read the "love between father and son" and allocated sufficient grain and grass.

After experiencing a sudden sinister illness and experiencing the indifference and abandonment of his father and brother, he returned to the front again, still energetic and strong, but he had already sprouted the heart to compete for the throne, and he was firmly rooted in his heart.

Mu Qing followed the army all the way overnight, gritting his teeth and not snorting tiredly. Du Ruhui said to her that only after the extermination of Xue Ju and the triumphant class teacher, the gate of Chang'an will be opened to welcome back the King of Qin, if they are defeated, Li Gong and Da Lang will never teach the gate of Chang'an to open a crack for self-protection. Naturally, they were not allowed to go into the city to see their newborn son.

20,000 soldiers and horses, against 200,000 Xue Army, how can it be a situation of hitting stones with eggs. Du Ruhui said that there was a seventy percent chance of winning, so she was convinced, and only hoped that this war would end as soon as possible.

……

Xue Rengao suffered a loss in Ningzhou, turned around and wanted to go back to Gaojaw, where could he enter Gaojaw City, in a fit of anger, he grabbed a few soldiers who escaped from the killing in Gaoja, and smashed almost all of their bones in public, in their increasingly weak screams, Xue Rengao said loudly, "If there are any more people who abandon the battle, take this as an example." ”

At that moment, two veterans dissuaded him, and he slapped him on the cheek and knocked several teeth off before he stopped. Under the tent, don't say dissuasion, even if you see, no one dares to look at him again.

Losing the high jaw, Xue Rengao had to lead his troops back to Zhicheng, entrenched in Zhicheng and not out. As soon as he entered the city, he ordered the city gate to be closed, and a soldier ran up to pay respect, saying that Xue Gong had invited him.

Xue Rengao secretly sighed in his heart, and said in his heart, the news was very fast, and he suffered a loss in Ningzhou, and turned around and taught Tang Jun to take away Gaoji, but in just one or two days, the matter has been transmitted to his father's ears, and it is necessary to reprimand again, and there must be the instigation of the old man.

After repelling the soldiers who passed the word, Xue Rengao was reluctantly about to go to Xue Ju's place to receive training, and another horse rushed towards him, and the person on the horse was not a soldier, but a servant in his house.

The servant stepped forward, jumped off the horse, and respectfully said to Xue Rengao, "Ah Lang is here, and the lady asks Ah Lang to go back to the house to talk." The housemaid's confidence in speaking was obviously much stronger than that soldier just now, and after passing the word, he didn't wait for Xue Rengao to respond, turned around and got on the horse and ran back.

As soon as he heard that the lady was invited, the fierce and vicious Xue Rengao was like a big cat with a smooth hair, and he didn't care about Xue Ju waiting to admonish him, and went straight back to the house with a dozen horses.

Rao is fighting with her husband, Gu Erniang still does not change her delicate style, and the five skirts cut from soft silver-red soft silk are meticulously scattered on the ground with her sitting posture. The apricot-colored tufts of flowers lined her fair neck and face just right.

When Xue Rengao entered the house, she was critically looking at the round bun she had just combed in front of the rhombic bronze mirror. Although the flowers and moons reflected in the mirror have been seen for many years, they still make Xue Rengao stunned.

A servant girl bowed down, holding a large porcelain basin with a large ice cube, and hurried in from outside, probably because the heat was too heavy, and she was a little hot and faint, and accidentally bumped into Xue Rengao when she entered the house. He was carrying a belly of fire, but he was unexpectedly hit like this, and his heart became more and more angry, and he raised one leg and kicked it over, kicking the little maid to the ground, breaking the big porcelain basin in his hand, and the big ice cube in the basin fell to the ground, broke into four or five pieces, and rolled quickly on the ground.

"You ate deflated outside, and when you came back, you took our female outlet, and I didn't understand this reason." Gu Erniang stood up from in front of the rhombic mirror, helped a four-butterfly jade-inlaid golden step on her hair bun, and said with a mocking face.

Xue Rengao was not angry, he entered the room and sat down in front of the desk, with a sad face, "Do you think I can't stand it enough, don't mention those bad ones." ”

Gu Erniang waved away the maidservant who was kicked to the ground, and someone else stepped forward to pick up the broken porcelain and ice cubes on the ground. She ignored this, brought a glass of sour plum syrup from the top of another case, and handed it to him with her own hands. "Move such a big gas in the heat of the day, and extinguish the fire."

"What did you do when you ordered someone to call me back?" Xue Rengao took the sour plum syrup and drank it all, remembering that he was recalled by her, and entered the house until now, but he still didn't know what was going on.

"It's not a big deal." Gu Erniang hooked the corners of her delicate mouth, "It's just that I thought that you would return from a long journey, Ah Weng must have summoned you to interrogate, this journey was tiring, my feet never rested, and I didn't eat a mouthful of cold cheese, so I had to listen to those annoying lectures, I was really tired, so I ......" She didn't go down as she spoke, and the smile on her face became more and more intimate.

Speaking of his father, Xue Rengao couldn't sit still, "It's okay, I should go over there to see my father." Those old horsemen who rely on their seniority are already broken in front of their fathers, and if they are taught to hold a handle, press a charge against me, and have to say, and then spare you to say it, it will make my father angry. ”

Gu Erniang pursed her lips and sat down a little angrily, "What do I have to be afraid of, they like to talk about it, just let them say it, in the end, it's just an ignorant woman, is it possible that they also dealt with me with military law?" I'm just aggrieved for you, the drudgery is all done by you, and if you do it, it should be, and if you can't do it, it will become a big thing and difficult to achieve. It is easy to move the skin of the mouth, and the strength of the skin of each mouth can bear the width of the knife and the long lance. ”

Xue Rengao bowed his head and was silent, unable to agree more in his heart, and said to himself, in the end, Erniang understands my heart, I am suffering in my heart, even if my father gives birth to a child, he does not know as much as her tenths and twelve. Or maybe he doesn't bother to know at all, there is no other him in his heart except for the throne, let alone the common love between father and son.

"When you ascend the throne and inherit the throne, send them into battle to kill the enemy, and see how capable they are." Gu Erniang pursed her lips, muttered a few angry words, and sighed at the end, "I have a doubt, according to the old man who told the truth like this, but there is still the day when you inherit the throne?" ”

The words on the side were just enough, but this sentence, like a chirping hammer, with a sharp and murderous sound, shot straight into Xue Rengao's heart. R1152
