The yellow wind and sand came overwhelmingly, the 100,000 troops of the northern country pressed the border, the soldiers and horses stepped through the sand, held high the banner of the northern character, waved the troops straight down, and stopped at the junction with the Qi country.

The man riding a black horse was burly, with a mouth full of black scum, holding two green knives in his hands, one long and one short, with a rough voice: "A row of magic arrows is ready to shoot the enemy soldiers of Qi State to death for me, and the rest of the elite soldiers are backing up." ”
A team of more than 10,000 elite arrows from the north replied neatly and loudly: "Yes!" ”
General Qi Guoye waved his hand back and gave an order: "One row of three thousand defensive shield elite soldiers is ready, two rows of two thousand archers are ready, three rows of three thousand infantry are ready, and four rows of two thousand cavalry are ready." ”
The morale of the 10,000 Qi generals was high, and they replied unifiedly: "All preparations are complete." ”
The black horse man waved his finger at the soldiers and horses of the Qi State and shouted, "Give me arrows." ”
General Night did not lose his momentum, waved his finger at the northern soldiers and horses, and gave the order: "The second row of archers release arrows." ”
The sky was full of arrows flying wildly, with a roaring sound, the northern divine arrow warriors shot yellow arrows, the archery skills were superb, the arrows pierced the defensive shield, and shot a thousand defensive shield elite soldiers of the Qi country.
The archers of the Qi Kingdom shot black arrows, and the archery skills were slightly inferior to the enemy, and the arrows shot out were either missed or pierced by the arrows of the Northern Divine Arrows, and they could not gain the upper hand.
Seeing the opportunity, the dark horse man continued to wave his hand and ordered: "Backup, exterminate the Qi soldiers, and capture the general of Qi Guoye alive." ”
The major general of Qi was wearing silver armor, his posture was as tall as a pine, his momentum was as strong as the sun, his eyes were as bright as cold stars under his sword eyebrows, he sat on a white horse, held a vajra gun, and the head of the spear was sharp with ten one-inch thorns, and then followed 50,000 soldiers and horses to the junction of the two countries to meet General Ye.
General Night looked happy, patted the young general's shoulder, and said happily: "Good! It was just the right time for all the soldiers to kill the enemy army in the north with the old man. ”
The two countries are in a fight, and the northern reinforcements are strong and well-equipped, and they are one against ten.
The major general rode a white horse straight to the front line, leaned over and approached the horse's back, threw out the King Kong spear with a perfect side, held the top of the gun body, and rotated it to make the thorns of the spear head sharper, and hit four northern arrows in a row.
The man rode a black horse straight to the front line, holding two swords and one long and one short out of the sheath, and fought with the major general of Qi State, kicked the horse pedals with both feet, jumped up, stepped on the horse's back, and flew out of the air with the help of force, the long knife in his left hand slashed at the front foot of the white horse, and the short knife in his right hand slashed at his shoulder.
The young general tightened the rope of the horse with his left hand, lifted it hard, raised the front foot of the white horse, blocked the short knife of the black horse man with the vajra gun in his right hand, and then on the left side, the hind legs of the white horse kicked towards the hind legs of his black horse.
The black horse man was not in a hurry to dodge, the black horse's hind legs were kicked, and he leaned back with a scream, and the man jumped down to face the black horse luck, and soon the black horse returned to normal, jumped on the black horse again, and roared: "Kill this white horse major general for me all." ”
The major general was besieged by the enemy forces in the north and fell into a scuffle.
The Northern Divine Arrow Warrior has already shot most of the Qi soldiers, and their momentum is getting stronger and stronger.
General Night ordered the soldiers beside him, and hurriedly said, "Hurry up and mingle gold." ”
The soldiers rang the Ming Jin, and all the Qi troops in the battle withdrew one after another, and the major general had a love of war, and when he heard the signal to collect the troops, he had to retreat, and drove a white horse to ram into the enemy's body, and the golden steel gun swept away the enemy left and right, and returned to the night general.
"All retreat to the Three Canyons, don't fall in love with the battle, the enemy army is too strong, we need to readjust." General Night commanded.
The Qi army retreated to the three canyons, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were ambushed on the route back to the camp, and were blocked by 10,000 wheels and horses in the north, and the remaining 10,000 soldiers and horses struggled to break through.
In the end, as a last resort, General Night abandoned the border and returned to Long Spoon City with 10,000 soldiers and horses.
The people of Long Spoon City were panicked, the people rolled up and left, scattered and fled for their lives, and the city gate was closed at this moment, and the people inside could not get out, and the people outside could not enter.
Dressed in gray-black armor, holding a bronze sword in his hand, and with a little white silk in his sideburns, General Night still stood majestically on the city tower, and ordered: "All the soldiers have a little rest here, and they must defend the Long Spoon City." ”
The major general set up camp with his soldiers and horses and rearranged his troops.
Night withered grass and rice have not yet walked on the busy streets of Long Spoon City, the people are on a rampage, and a couple bumped into them and bowed their heads to apologize: "I'm sorry! Don't go any further, General Night has blocked the city gates, and no one can get out, this is to be buried with the city of Long Spoon. ”
Night Dry Grass saw that not far away, there was a pair of soldiers and horses training, and the one in it was not the eldest brother Yedu, it's over! If this is seen by the father who doesn't want to see him, he will probably be killed. Inspired by an idea, he thought of a ghost idea and asked Dao Weiming: "Do you have any medicine that can make people's faces pockmarked or unrecognizable." ”
Dao Weiming looked puzzled, took out the medicine bottle, shook the liquid inside, handed it to the night withered grass, and said solemnly: "We should dress up in disguise, the current situation is so chaotic, this bottle of potion is called true love water, it can make the face ugly, and the voice will also change, as long as you say to the opposite sex, I like you very much, and it will change back to the original state immediately, and when the time comes, we can change back to each other by saying this sentence." ”
Night Dry Grass took the medicine bottle, drank the potion in one gulp, her stomach gurgled, she spit out a puff of smoke, and the smoke flashed the appearance of an old gentleman, and then a long white beard grew on her chin, and her face was wrinkled, and her voice was extremely vicissitudes, so she felt like an old gentleman.
Dao Weiming drank the potion, spit out a puff of smoke, and the smoke flashed with the appearance of an old woman, and then his face aged, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were stacked layer by layer, and his voice became soft and weak.
The two glanced at each other and laughed, Dao Weiming explained: "The way you look now comes from what you think in your heart, I want to play your wife now, and if I want to sneak into the barracks, I must pretend to be an old man Yan." ”
Night Dry Grass awkwardly shirked: "Then what's the matter, you're a girl, I'm ......"
Dao Weiming interrupted the words of the night withered grass and continued: "Now no one knows who we are, the legendary Yan seniors have traveled with their wives, no one has seen what they look like, he is very good at arranging troops, and General Night is absolutely no problem." ”
The night withered grass was embarrassed and said, "No...... It's easy to pretend to be him, but I can't line up troops, it's ......"
"It's okay, let's get mixed up first." Dao Weiming said, took the hand of the night withered grass, and walked side by side.
The people surrounded the city gates and shouted, "Let us out, we don't want to die here." ”
Night Dry Grass became timid in her heart, and always felt that it was wrong to pretend to be someone else, so she asked Dao Weiming in a low voice: "What now?" It seems like there will be a riot at any time ahead. ”
"Tell the people of Long Spoon City that you are Mr. Yan, and when you hear this name, you will definitely be able to stabilize the hearts of the people." Dao did not yet suggest in a whisper beside him, continuing to hold the hand of the night withered grass and smile at the people.
General Night returned from a great defeat, feeling physically and mentally exhausted, standing on the city tower, patiently explaining to the people under the city gate: "Everyone be calm and impatient, we will definitely defend the city of Long Spoon." ”
The people raised their hands in protest, and the language was fierce: "We don't believe it, General Night is defeated on the border, and the city of Long Spoon will be captured soon, their magic arrows are so powerful, why do you say that they can defend it?" ”
Cough! Cough! The night withered grass coughed lightly, touched his long white beard, and said meaningfully, "I can help you defeat the Northern Divine Arrow Soldiers." ”
The people turned their heads and stared at the withered grass, and asked, "Who are you?" If you're old, find a safe place to hide! ”
Night Withered Grass raised her head and said in a decent manner: "I am the legendary Mr. Yan, the master of the array, what are you afraid of with me?" After speaking, he was still coaxed, attached to Dao Mingming's ear, and asked in a low voice: "Did you say so?" ”
Dao Weiming pinched the arm of the night withered grass with his hand, and said with a smile: "This is my husband, and he is also Mr. Yan, you don't have to worry, your husband will definitely help everyone defend Long Spoon City, as long as you cooperate." ”
The people cheered: "Great, we are saved, what does Mr. Yan need us to cooperate with, despite the orders, we must do our best." ”
The people happily gathered around the night withered grass, and their hands formed a large circle of bracelets, a kind of welcoming ceremony.
General Night hurriedly came down from the city tower, came to the night withered grass, and said respectfully: "Mr. Yan, please accept the old man's worship, I thank you for your help for the people of Long Spoon City." ”
Night Dry Grass immediately held the Night General's hands, and said in a panic: "This is what I should do, I can't sit idly by while watching the invasion of the Northern Army." After speaking, he pinched a handful of sweat, if this is a worship, it will not be lost.
General Ye asked, "Does Mr. Yan have a coping strategy?" ”
The night withered grass was out of order at once, and replied with a slurrel: "This ......"
Dao has not yet slapped the night withered grass arm, hinting to answer the night general quickly.
"Oops, hey!" Nightdry grass screamed, her arms were pinched red by her, and she glared at her.
General Ye asked suspiciously, "Is there any difficulty with Mr. Yan?" ”
The night withered grass tore away the hand of the rice and said seriously: "Please rest assured, general, after I have a careful observation, I will ...... Array. ”
General Night respectfully stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please.
Night withered grass folded his hands behind his back into fists, looked thoughtful, stood on the castle tower and looked into the distance, his right hand touched the uneven stone wall, shook his head, and sighed.
At present, some prisoners outside the city gate are still repairing the city wall, and the old man who was there that day, seeing the dissatisfaction in their eyes, will take advantage of the chaos to escape sooner or later, if the enemy army is allowed to take it away, it will definitely destroy the weakness of the long spoon city.
General Night waited for Night Withered Grass's reply, and seeing that he was silent, he asked again in a low voice: "Mr. Yan, does he have a countermeasure?" ”
Night Withered Grass flicked her sleeves and said to General Night in a commanding tone: "From now on, liberate all the prisoners, and if you bring them to the city tower to see me, you will say that Mr. Yan wants to see them." ”
The soldiers beside General Ye knelt down on one knee, clasped their hands into fists, and persuaded: "Mr. Yan can't do it!" Those prisoners are released, and they will definitely take advantage of the chaos to escape. ”
Night Withered Grass looked at the old prisoner outside the city gate, and must find a way to rescue them, and said patiently: "Don't worry, is what my old Mr. Yan said make you very embarrassed?" Now is the time to employ people, and the enemy has no prisoners who are not prisoners at present. ”
Dao Weiming smiled awkwardly beside him, leaned close to the ear of the night withered grass, and muttered in a low voice: "Are you crazy?" Let you come up with an idea, not let you fool around. ”
General Night didn't think much about it, agreed to the countermeasures of the night withered grass, and instructed the soldiers beside him: "Go and bring all the prisoners outside the city gate to the city tower, and say that Mr. Yan has an invitation." ”
Night Withered Grass nodded with satisfaction, turned his back to General Night, and took a deep breath, this is my father, strange and familiar, he seems to be older than he remembers, this year the war has been tight, and he has returned from a big defeat, he must feel uncomfortable, this time he must be relieved.
The prisoners climbed the tower in fear, looked at the figure standing in the tower with their backs to them in fear, and the soldier knelt on one knee and reported: "General Qiqi has brought all the prisoners." "Stand down.
Night Withered Grass slowly turned around, touched his long beard, pulled away his smile, and said solemnly: "I am Mr. Yan, now you are liberated." ”
The prisoners hugged each other happily, happily not knowing what to say, and soon felt unreal, questioning voices: "Don't make fun of us lowly prisoners, how can there be a day of freedom?" ”
"What my Mr. Yan said is true, you are free, but I have something I want to ask you." There was something to say in the night withered grass.
The prisoners turned their gaze to General Night, wanting to liberate from his mouth.
"What Mr. Yan says is equal to what I say, you are free." The Night General personally promised the prisoners.
The prisoners said happily: "Thank you, Mr. Yan, as long as we can do it, we will definitely repay you for your rescue." ”
Night Dry Grass said to the prisoner as she planned in her heart, "I don't need you to repay it, but now that the enemy is present, you must also want your family to be protected, right?" Why don't you be the backup? ”
"We all listen to Mr. Yan's arrangement." The prisoners replied in unison.
The night withered grass said to Dao Weiming: "Madam, the prisoners will first hand over your good life to entertain them, so that they can eat and drink enough, and then have the strength to wait for me to give orders for backup." He turned to General Night and said, "That...... I went to find the Major General, and the Night General was waiting for me in the castle tower first. ”
Dao Weiming began to go crazy in his heart, watching him play Mr. Yan has a lot of fun! It's all nonsense, he stepped on the night dry grass, and said dissatisfiedly: "Husband, pay attention to your body!" Raise an eyebrow at him, wink, and hint not to mess around.
Nightshade reacted greatly, hugged the foot that was trampled, and said loudly, "You...... Eye...... What's wrong? The voice slowly lowered.
The crow flew over Dao Weiming's brain, covered his face, and really wanted to beat him to death, and said speechlessly: "It's nothing! You go to the major general and say that the business is important, I can take care of myself, and my husband doesn't have to worry. ”
The night withered grass went down the castle tower and hurried in the direction of the young general.
