A year ago, the Northern Expedition of Shangguo took advantage of the Mumu country to use troops against the neighboring Puguo, and the elite cavalry were sent to the territory of Puguo, relying on the numerical advantage, the Shangguo men and horses rushed into the Makimu country along the border, killing tens of thousands of border defenders, and capturing three border towns.

Qiu Sheng, the general who had just led the troops to the expedition, was extremely excited to face such a good start, and was ready to reward the meritorious general. Before the banquet began, there was a sound outside the camp, and then the sound of fighting was endless. Could it be a mutiny? When Qiu Sheng was still guessing, a cavalryman rushed into the banquet tent, and when he calmed down, he saw that the clothes and weapons were exactly the same as those of Mumu Country, and he knew that he had been attacked by the enemy. The personal guards around him faced the battle again and again, protected Qiu Sheng again and again, withdrew from the camp and fled to the military camp of Huaihua General Yi Ting. However, how could the cavalry of the country of Makime let go of this general of the unified army lightly, and a cavalry detachment followed them. A bunch of people in front are on the run, and a couple of people in the back are chasing, so chaotic. Suddenly, an arrow was fired, Qiu Sheng was shot in the left leg and fell to the ground, and the soldiers of the Makime Kingdom immediately surrounded him, all trying to capture the enemy commander alive. For a while, there were heavy casualties on both sides.

The sound of fighting in the forest aroused the vigilance of Song Hai and his party who were hurrying. The soldiers of Shangguo were besieged by a group of unknown people, and the two brothers Guo Yan and Fei Yu, who were armed with iron swords, rushed forward without saying a word, leaving Song Hai and hiding behind a tree. Not far away, a majestic armor, wearing a golden mask, riding a white horse, the general of the country of Mumu took a bow and aimed at Qiu Sheng, Song Hai did not expect to touch the dead archer, and the bowstring was full of an arrow, right in the middle of the white horse. With a scream, the general fell off his horse, and his mask fell, revealing the face of a handsome woman.

"Withdraw!" The woman who fell off the horse glared fiercely at Song Hai and gave orders to the soldiers, and as soon as the order was issued, the soldiers followed the generals to the north. This is the scene when Qiu Sheng and Song Hai met for the first time, in the midst of the fight, on the verge of death.

In the face of the imminent threat of death, it is difficult for everyone to express their inner feelings at that time in words, and if they insist on it, there must be only one word "danger" in their hearts.

Rescue troops finally arrived. The two armies are fighting, and if the commander of his own side encounters an accident, the lieutenant generals will inevitably be killed. When the deputy general Huaihua General Yi Ting and another deputy general, Yunlu General Feng Wangyuan, were returning from the front line, they heard the soldiers asking for help recount that the big tent had been attacked and immediately rushed to kill the enemy.

"Is the general injured?" Yi Ting rushed up to inquire about the injury.

"Thanks to the soldiers who killed the enemy, they were only hit by an arrow in the leg, and their lives were unharmed. What is the situation in the camp? Qiu Sheng stiffened the pain of the wound and gritted his teeth and replied. He could not let his subordinates and soldiers have the slightest doubt about his perseverance, and in such an extraordinary moment, the commander could often stabilize the morale of the army and quickly restore morale.

"Our men and horses have repelled the enemy troops who attacked them, and now the camp is unharmed." Feng Wangyuan immediately reported for duty this time.

"Okay, lead the horse, and return to the camp quickly." Qiu Sheng simply bandaged the wound and hurried back to the camp to check the situation, he endured the pain of the arrow wound on his leg, resolutely stepped on the horse, held the reins, and was about to return to the village. At this moment, Qiu Sheng seemed to have suddenly thought of something, looked around anxiously and frowned and asked, "You can see the three strong men who saved me. ”

"A strong man? The sergeants have arrested three suspicious people and gone down, I wonder if it is the person the general is looking for? Yi Ting turned his head and ordered, "Go and bring them up." Seeing that it was Song Hai and the others, they hurriedly ordered the sergeants around them to loosen their ties.

"Snubbing the three strong men. In the next victory, thank you to the three strong men for saving you. Can the three of you come to my camp for a drink for a while, and let me thank you for the three of you. Qiu Sheng said respectfully and reasonably, and he did not have the style of being an official at all. After saying that, there was no reason for Song Hai and the three of them to refuse, and the three of them were about to go to his camp to join the army, and there was no reason to excuse themselves, the three of them looked at each other, their hearts were overjoyed, and they thanked each other.

The camp was attacked by the enemy, and the commander almost called someone to kill him, and the soldiers of Shangguo were very uncomfortable in their hearts, and the previous battles were fought very smoothly, breaking through the military defense line of the Mumu country, besieging the stronghold, and easily chopping melons and vegetables. Unexpectedly, the front was hot, and the rear was hot, which was really a morale setback. When Qiu Sheng saw the burned camp and his own guards fighting and dying miserably, he couldn't help but regret his negligence.

The old camp can no longer be stationed. Qiu Sheng instructed Yi Ting to re-establish camp in a nearby open space with a pair of men and horses, and sent Feng Wangyuan to rush to the front line to strengthen the military garrison on the front line and guard against the attack of the Mumu Army. When the deployment was complete, Qiu Sheng remembered that Song Hai and the three of them had been following behind him, so he called the sergeant to clean up a clean place and temporarily station, and ordered to bury the pot for cooking.

When the sun was setting and the night was rising, a bonfire was lit in the camp, and Qiu Sheng and Song Hai sat around the bonfire roasting mutton and drinking wine.

"I didn't ask the names of the three strong men along the way, who are they? This Huaizhou territory is in chaos, how did the three of them come here? Qiu Sheng still has a lot of questions about the appearance of Song Hai and his party, even if the three of them kill the enemy, they can't rule out the possibility that they are spies of the enemy country, so take this opportunity to inquire. The three of them hurriedly put down the things in their hands and solemnly introduced themselves, Guo Yan spoke eloquently on behalf of the three people: "This is Song Hai, Chuzhou Yuanhe, he is Fei Yu, Gyeongju Anguofu, in Xia Guo Yan, Gyeongju Heyi, our three brothers came to Huaizhou to vote under the general's account and kill the enemy in the Northern Expedition." ”

"I see. Three strong men, I will do it first for respect. Qiu Sheng picked up a pot of wine and drank it, without hesitation, it seems that he is also a person who is addicted to alcohol. Song Hai usually doesn't drink, for fear that he will be embarrassed when he gets drunk, but he doesn't realize that Guo Yan and Fei Yu around him have already drunk with Qiu Sheng. Qiu Sheng saw that Song Hai didn't drink and asked, "Song Hai, why don't you drink?" ”

"Don't hide it from the general, I won't drink under you." Song Hai said embarrassedly.

"Hahahaha, I can't drink, why can't my husband drink, don't you give me face for hating someone!" There was a slight displeasure in Qiu Sheng's tone. When Guo Yan and Fei Yu heard this, they hurriedly persuaded Song Hai not to spoil the fun, Fei Yu said: "Brother Song, you can drink with confidence, when you are drunk, we brothers are looking at you, don't worry!" Guo Yan also helped: "That is, don't refute the general's kindness." After speaking, he glanced at Song Hai.

"Then I'll be respectful and obey my orders, and drink with the general." Song Hai grabbed a pot of wine and poured it into his mouth, only to feel the hot flow in his throat into his stomach, and it squirted out in a moment.

"Hahahaha, you really don't know how to drink! How can you drink like this, come and come, eat some meat, and press the wine. Qiu Sheng laughed, losing his previous displeasure.
