Chapter 50: Reunion

Xi Cui only felt a pain in her right shoulder, and an arrow cut through the clothes on her shoulder and shot at the car in front of her. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info saw that Wang Shaoyan was pushed to the ground by himself, and he quickly ran over to pull him up regardless of the wound on his shoulder, and checked whether he was injured while making amends.

After making sure that Wang Shaoyan was okay, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to see how the wound on her shoulder was, when she was pulled by Duan San and Wang Shaoyan at the same time, both of them actually wanted to see her injury, but they didn't expect the other party to pull it, but the two hands were forced from opposite directions, Xi Cui didn't feel how painful the wound was, but she couldn't help but grin in pain when they pulled it like this.

Seeing Xi Cui's appearance, the two quickly stopped and looked at each other unnaturally.

The arrows fired from the other side still had no intention of stopping, and the lieutenant could only lead everyone to retreat again and again. Seeing that more than 1,000 people have been killed or wounded, more than half of them have been killed.

Seeing that there was only such a little ability on this side, the rogues on the other side were emboldened, and they were covered by archers, as if they wanted to cross the river. At the moment, they can't run away if they want to, and if they lose their military funds, even if they go back alive, they will die, so it's better to fight to the death, and they can still leave a reputation for dying in battle.

The lieutenants were clearly ready to die, and they had run out of bows and arrows. But the other party is still pressing step by step.

Sure enough, the rogues began to cross the river, and they had archers to cover them, and the people on this side could not get close to the river, so they could only watch as they brandished their broadswords and slashed at them.

The adjutant general looked left and right at these soldiers who came out with him, some of them were still on the expedition for the first time, who would have thought that a dignified seven-foot man, who could not die on the battlefield when he joined the army for thousands of miles, but now he had to send such a shameless thief to the hands. He didn't feel that he had any regrets about dying, after all, all of this was a mistake caused by his failure to survey the surrounding environment in advance, but so many young lives had to be sacrificed because of his own fault, and he was ashamed in his heart.

So he stood at the front, and there was a rain of arrows around him, and he didn't blink his eyes, turned to face his soldiers, and he knelt on his knees, "All the generals, the last general is ashamed!" It is the last mistake to take you away from home and not bring you back safely...... If there is an afterlife, the last will be willing to be a cow and a horse to pay off this debt! ”

The young soldiers looked at the general who led them like this, and only then did they know that this was really the end. They look around for people who want to escape, but where can they flee to? There are bandits, wolves, and wars, can they really survive if they escape? But even if he survives, how can he go back to see his parents and relatives? Tell them they were deserters?

Xi Cui didn't expect the vice general to make such a decision at this time, he may be sincerely guilty like this, but as a general, how could he be deflated at such a time?

Xi Cui was anxious and looked at Wang Shaoyan, "Uncle, are you doing something then?" The lieutenant is obviously no longer fit to lead everyone. ”

Wang Shaoyan was actually very angry with the deputy general's behavior, but if he wanted him to stop the deputy general and lead the troops at this moment, could he really do it?

Duan San saw that Wang Shaoyan's heart was weak, sneered, and said coldly, "Left and right is just a pampered scholar, what can you expect him to do?" ”

Wang Shaoyan has one of the biggest advantages is that he is not chaotic in the face of danger, he doesn't know how many crises he has helped Wang Shangshu deal with since he was a child, and he has already developed a qualitative character that is different from ordinary people, when he thinks about the problem, he will listen to what others say, but he will not be affected by it, on the contrary, once he finds a breakthrough, the words spoken by the other party will be ridiculed by him vaguely.

Wang Shaoyan glanced at Duan San, ignored him, pushed away the crowd, and walked in front of the deputy general, "You can either fight side by side with everyone now or roll to the back and hide, don't be embarrassed here if you're afraid!" The deputy general had already admitted his mistake, but he didn't want Wang Shaoyan, who was polite all the way, scolded himself like this, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. But Wang Shaoyan didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and ordered two soldiers to come over and take the deputy general away. Then he looked at the people in front of him and said aloud, "Which of you has the best footsteps?" ”

A person slowly stood up, Wang Shaoyan looked at him, "Now you take my seal letter and immediately go to the army camp to find rescuers, will you look at the map?" ”

The soldier nodded, took the seal, turned and ran away.

Wang Shaoyan didn't look at these soldiers again, but stood in front of them and looked at the enemy soldiers who were crossing the river, and said in a cold voice, "Now that someone is looking for helpers, let's fight with all our strength here, and we will hold out until our people find it, and these thieves can't take our things away, so our task is completed." When the time comes, it will be dead, and our name will be reported to be a few dignified strokes, if we are lucky not to die, we will be heroes! ”

To be honest, although everyone was polite to Wang Shaoyan along the way, it was only because Wang Shaoyan was the escort officer in his will, but Wang Shaoyan didn't do anything along the way, and they didn't take him seriously. But now that a scholar can say such a thing, how can they, who are soldiers, show weakness?

So everyone mustered up all their strength to rush to the river with their shields, as long as they fought with their people in the river, their archers naturally had to stop, and when it came to hand-to-hand combat, the thieves were afraid of death, and we who killed red-eyed people would not necessarily lose.

Xi Cui looked at Wang Shaoyan, he was standing there, dressed in white, gentle and elegant but his eyes were blazing, exuding a domineering momentum, and the immortal who was filled with anger was probably like this.

The two sides were entangled in the river, and the archers of the other side really stopped, and the lieutenant seemed to see hope, and rushed into the ranks with his sword......

When the leading man saw that his people had been slashed countless by the lieutenant general, he immediately became angry, flew over with a big knife, and fought with the lieutenant.

In the end, there were many people on the other side, and although the lieutenant fought hard to resist the other party, someone took the opportunity to touch the shore. Now there are only Wang Shaoyan left, Xi Cui and Duan San on the shore, although Duan San's kung fu is very high, but after all, it is difficult to defeat two fists and four legs, seeing that there are more and more enemies, Duan San is more and more difficult to protect two people who don't know martial arts.

I only heard a whoosh, a feather arrow fired, and one of the people who was about to slash at Duan San with a knife fell to the ground, followed by several more, and the people around the three of them all lay on the ground one by one.

Then a cold and low male voice came from afar, "Hu Biao, you really have lived enough, haven't you?" Is the scar you left before no longer painful? ”

The big man who was fighting with the lieutenant general trembled violently when he heard this sound, and almost didn't throw the knife in his hand into the river, and quickly fled to the side with a false move. When his men saw where the boss had withdrawn and dared to stay, they began to flee to the shore, and the river was full of things.

Xi Cui followed the prestige, only to see a white-robed general, sitting firmly on a tall horse, holding a big bow in his hand, wearing a silver helmet and battle armor, heroic posture, like a tree with a branch, and the white robe under the armor swayed with the wind, so that his whole body exuded a glass-like brilliance.

It was too far away, Xi Cui couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, and only felt that the voice was very familiar, but it was not familiar.

When he straddled his horse and approached, the familiar face became clear in front of Xi Cui's eyes. The eyes under the sword eyebrows are as bright as cold stars, and the lips under the bridge of the handsome nose are tightly closed. The battlefield is really the place where men grow the fastest, especially a man like Nangong Yufeng, who has a wanton temperament, after experiencing the baptism of the battlefield, he has undergone a miraculous transformation all around him.

No wonder, when she first heard his voice, Xi Cui felt familiar but unfamiliar, the voice was still that voice, the man who made the sound.

Wang Shaoyan also recognized Nangong Yufeng, and a smile on his face showed a truly relaxed smile. Nangong Yufeng nodded at him, checked his body, and made sure that he was not injured before crossing the horse and walking to the river. He put the big bow behind his back with his back, put his hands lightly on the horse, and squinted at Hu Biao, who was standing on the opposite bank and didn't dare to escape or enter, "How did we agree when we saw you last time?" Why do you think that what I Nangong Yufeng said is like a fart that has been released, and I forget it? He raised the horsewhip in his hand and pointed at the people behind him, "Don't tell me that you don't know that these people are from my Great Xia Kingdom!" Don't you know what our people are wearing? Don't say that I let you die in vain, Hu Biao, it's not good for you to move, dare to touch my fellow disciple of Nangong Yufeng! ”

Hu Biao was already kneeling on the ground with a pale face, begging for mercy in his mouth, knocking on the ground one after another, and his forehead was soon covered with blood.

Nangong Yufeng's face did not change, he beckoned to the back, and a few accompanying soldiers rode up and set up their longbows, just waiting for Nangong Yufeng to make a gesture, they could immediately take the lives of Hu Biao and several leading leaders on the other side.

Wang Shaoyan remembered that Hu Biao did ask them if they were from the Great Xia Kingdom, but at that time, the deputy general saw that he had injured his brother, so he was angry and unwilling to tell him, so he provoked a war between the two sides. Seeing that the people on the other side were completely sad, he couldn't bear it when he hadn't been on the battlefield.

Only then did he walk up to Nangong Yufeng and ask, "Yufeng, are these people the people of our Great Xia Kingdom?" ”

Nangong Yufeng snorted coldly, "Hmph, if they weren't the people of the Great Xia Kingdom, how could I keep them alive today?" ”

Wang Shaoyan sighed with emotion after hearing this, "Since you are a citizen of the Great Xia Kingdom, why don't you subdue them and serve with the army?" Wouldn't that be better than losing one's life in vain? ”

Nangong Yufeng glanced down at Wang Shaoyan, turned over and dismounted, and said softly while checking his pulse, "So Master said that you are not suitable to be a general, haven't you heard of anything about raising tigers?" People like Hu Biao are greedy and selfish, and bringing him into the army will only bring trouble to themselves. If it weren't for the fact that he had robbed the enemy several times before, I would have taken his life a long time ago, and now that he dares to hurt you, how can I spare him! After making sure that his body was fine, Nangong Yufeng let go of his hand with peace of mind and said with a smile, "It's really much better, when I received the news from the flying pigeon that the emperor sent you here, I was really afraid that you would die on the way." In order to meet you, I was here a few days ago, and I was really shocked to see the soldiers you sent for help, but fortunately I caught up, otherwise I would have folded you here and gone back, and the master would have scraped me alive! ”

They gossiped back and forth, but the person opposite was trembling on the line of life and death. Duan San and Nangong Yufeng had known each other for a long time, and knew that he was deliberately torturing Hu Biao, so he couldn't help laughing.

His smile caused Nangong Yufeng to look here, Xi Cui was standing next to Duan San, although he was wearing men's clothes, his face was still easy to recognize. Xi Cui didn't want him to see herself in this situation, so she deliberately turned around, but the wound on her shoulder that she accidentally touched in such a turn made her bite her lip and gasp and hiss.

Nangong Yufeng's eyes narrowed, looking up and down at this little kid in a wide military uniform, it seemed that he was only eleven or twelve years old, why did he enter the barracks? was also picked by Wang Shaoyan and followed to the battlefield, Wang Shaoyan is really not too troublesome. Seeing the blood oozing from her shoulder, Nangong Yufeng smiled and raised her eyebrows, a child is a child, but a small injury is so hypocritical. He saw Xi Cui turn around, lowered his head and thought she was crying, so he walked over with a smile.

Xi Cui listened to his footsteps approaching step by step, thinking that he had recognized himself, but he lost his sense of proportion for a while, and hid behind Duan San one by one.

Duan San didn't know why he didn't plan to cover it up for her, but because of the wound on her shoulder, he could only blindly retreat to the side, and seeing that Xi Cui didn't speak, he just dodged between himself and the carriage without saying anything, so he had to hold her down gently, "Xi Cui, General Nangong is your own person, you don't have to avoid him." Haven't you heard of him? Major General Xi is a very close friend of him. ”

"Xi Cui!" Hearing this name, Nangong Yufeng's eyes immediately emitted a different light, he couldn't help but reach out and turn Xi Cui's body around, sure enough, it was Xi Cui!

He stared at her face intently, she had changed a lot, her face that was once full of girlish childishness was now more feminine and feminine, and the long march made her fair skin look a little rough, but it was still slightly pink compared to others. The strange thing is that I didn't think she was beautiful even when I felt that I liked her a little, but now I don't know why I look at her very good-looking even though she is not powdered.

His hand pressed on Xi Cui's shoulder, and Xi Cui couldn't hold back the piercing pain when he didn't want to show it. After all, the arrow was shot through her shoulder, how could it not hurt if there was an extra hole in her body? Xi Cui gritted his teeth and hated in his heart, this Nangong Yufeng is really his nemesis, every time he meets him, it is always good! This time it was really excessive, and she actually pressed her wound directly, how much enmity did she have with him? This meeting made him take revenge like this?

Seeing Xi Cui's little face twisted, Nangong Yufeng remembered that he had pressed on her wound. Looking at the red blood stains on his hands, Nangong Yufeng's heart seemed to be missing a fire, and he glanced back at Hu Biao who was kneeling on the ground, and there was no trace of emotion in his eyes, so he gave the order directly.

At this moment, he completely forgot that he thought Xi Cui was just an eleven or twelve-year-old boy when he thought she was hypocritical, and his eyes were full of concern when he looked at her.

Duan San felt a real sense of crisis at this time, it turned out that this kid also had thoughts about Xi Cui, and Xi Cui should also treat him unusually, otherwise Xi Cui would not have avoided him just now. Nangong Yufeng was far more dangerous to Xi Cui than Wang Shaoyan, and he had to step up his vigilance.

Wang Shaoyan then remembered Nangong Yufeng's eyes when he looked at Xi Cui before, could it be that Yufeng hadn't given up on Xi Cui for so long? This is not good, Xi Cui's current identity can only be assured if he marries Xi Yunjian, although Nangong Yufeng has a deep friendship with him, and he can be the son of the prince, Xi Cui can't climb at all, even if he is a concubine, the princess will not agree. If it is really due to his temperament, Xi Cui will only suffer a loss.

So he hurriedly walked up to the two of them, blocked Xi Cui behind him, and asked Nangong Yufeng, "Xi Cui came here specifically to find Yun Jian this time, do you know where he is now?" ”

Nangong Yufeng frowned, his face was full of displeasure, "Yun Jian was transferred to the front line by General Sun half a month ago, and now he is already a fourth-rank lieutenant general, General Sun said that this battle has been almost fought, as long as he can go down to two more cities, he will personally write to him to promote him as the second-rank champion general, and then the army will return triumphantly in less than a month, and after returning to Beijing, he will be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and his hussar general will sit down!" The more he talked about Xi Yunjian, the more excited he became, and the haze on his face instantly dissipated, and his eyebrows and eyes showed amazement and excitement.

Hearing him say this, Xi Cui smiled shallowly, Xi Yunjian is worthy of being brought out by the Hou Ye himself, the first expedition is infinitely beautiful, and he has the potential to dominate, presumably his future when he returns to Beijing will be limitless. Will he still take a fancy to himself at that time?

The reason why Mrs. matched them before was nothing more than to give Xi Yunjian hope to live, but now that he is not only alive but also living such a beautiful life, is her existence not so important? No, on the contrary, she may become a stain on his life, a genius, a peerless young general, a lowly maid who sold herself into slavery, how inappropriate to look at!

Fortunately, Xi Yunjian is not here now, if he is here, she must not know how to face it.

Wang Shaoyan didn't think as much as Xi Cui, he only knew that Xi Yunjian had succeeded, and Huai'an Hou had won a big victory in this gamble, if Xi Yunjian really became a hussar general, it would be an important bargaining chip for the Wang family to compete with the Lao family. In the future, it will be much more convenient for him to do things in the court.

Nangong Yufeng said for a long time, but the two listeners didn't say anything after listening, which made him a little embarrassed. He looked at them with an unhappy expression, "Aren't you all happy?" I'm talking about Xi Yunjian! "I thought you would be happy to ask how I'm messing up now? Seeing that your attitude towards Xi Yunjian is like this, then I, Nangong Yufeng, you must be even more uninterested. (To be continued.) )
