Chapter 32: Mutation
The army behind Su Xuan swooped down on Mo Cangxing and his party.
Looking at the enemies who were several times larger than his own in front of him, neither Mo Cangxing nor the generals around him showed a trace of retreat.
They just leaned closer to each other, handed their backs to their companions behind them, and then tightened their grips on the weapons in their hands, their eyes bursting with even stronger fighting intent.
Under the onslaught of the thousand-man army, the formation of Mo Cangxing's side did not collapse immediately, but it shrank a lot compared to the original.
Su Xuan looked at Mo Cangxing's army of only a few hundred people with a calm gaze, and he had to admit that this was an army that was not inferior to the silver wolf.
If it weren't for the fact that the team in his hand had too much advantage in numbers, Su Hangyu's forbidden army had consumed a lot of strength from this hundred-man army, and I am afraid that it would not be so easy to trap Mo Cangxing.
The battle situation became clearer and clearer, and at this moment, Su Xuan suddenly looked at a small road connected to the main road, only to see mud and dust rolling at the end of the path.
Su Xuan didn't remember that they would have reinforcements, if it weren't for their reinforcements, then ......
Su Xuan looked at the place where the battle was fighting, and could vaguely see a petite figure in a man's robe, protected in the middle, and the figure loomed. It seems that he still underestimated this queen mother.
"Heavy cavalry." Su Zhe suddenly exclaimed. Su Xuan looked at the black dots that appeared first at the end of the trail. Even from a long distance, you can see that the cavalry and the horses are covered with iron armor. Su Xuan's face was no longer as indifferent as he was at the beginning, he counted a qiē, but he didn't expect that there would be such an army in the hands of this queen. The heavy armoured army got closer and closer, and the horse's hooves flew down, and everyone felt the ground tremble beneath their feet. "Bang." The heavily armored army didn't even have a formation, and it directly crashed into the army brought by Su Xuan. Not surprisingly, the few people who were the first to bump into the heavy armor army, even with people and horses, flew out sideways.
has been suppressed by Mo Cangxing and his party, and they also cater to the impact of the heavy armor army, and began to break through internally, and the two teams responded to each other inside and out, and forcibly tore out a gap in the encirclement of Su Xuan's side.
After the two hundred-man armies met, the light cavalry was in front, and the heavy armoured army was broken, and they withdrew to the path in an orderly manner.
Su Xuan led people and was just about to chase after him, when suddenly in the dense woods on both sides, a dense rain of arrows flew out. Su Zhe, Su Xing, and Su Nian quickly surrounded Su Xuan in the middle, and Su Xuanzhi stared at the people and horses in front of him who were getting farther and farther away, his eyes were deep.
Although that round of arrow rain did not bring too many casualties to Su Xuan and them, it still stopped them for a while, and when they got out, they had missed the best opportunity to pursue.
"Su Zhe, you go to Tianhua Temple to see how the situation is, as for those rebellious soldiers, they will be detained first. Su Nian, you go to Su Mansion and tell the patriarch about the matter here. Su Xing comes with me. After the words fell, Su Xuan took the lead in riding his horse and galloped away in the direction of the palace.
"Sister, the queen obviously has the same layout this time, although I dug up some of the people buried by the queen, but I can quietly make such a heavy armor army outside Jinyang City, the people in the queen's hands are even more tricky than I expected."
Su Yuyan looked at Su Xuan, due to the previous scuffle, a few strands of hair fell from Su Xuan's originally tied hair, and there were also a few dark spots on the Xuan-colored clothes, exuding a faint smell of blood. Galloping all the way, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Su Xuan's forehead and the tip of his nose.
"Brother, if I hadn't entered the palace back then, maybe our sister and brother would not be living today."
Su Yuyan's face was still beautiful, but there was a strong sense of exhaustion in his eyes.
When she was a child, although she was born in a side branch of the Su family, she was also the treasure of her parents. Later, because Emperor Jinde entered the palace, Emperor Jinde treated her even more pampered.
She Su Yuyan had some twists and turns on the road of love, but she was also used to it all the way.
Now that the princes are moving, the queen is pressing forward step by step, and Rui'er is about to ascend the throne, these things all involve politics, which makes her feel a sense of powerlessness, and her will can't help but be a little depressed.
Su Xuan stepped forward, squatted in front of Su Yuyan, held her hand, and said, "Sister, now, if you want to retreat, I can accompany you to retreat, and the Su family can also accompany you to retreat, but what about Rui'er." Can he still retreat? ”
After hearing Zhao Rui's name, Su Guifei's originally depressed eyes slowly accumulated light.
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and the man outside the door pushed the door in disregard of etiquette without waiting for the word to be heard.
Su Xuan turned around and found that it was actually Su Hangbai, and Su Xuan suddenly had a bad sign in his heart.
Su Hangbai, a child carefully cultivated by the Su family, what kind of thing would he encounter to be so shocked, completely ignoring etiquette and breaking into the palace of the concubine.
Over there, Su Hangbai didn't even stand still, so he hurriedly spoke: "There was an accident in the north, and the Di clan suddenly became difficult, and now I am afraid that they have won the Hankou Pass." ”
"How is it possible, although there are not many defenders in that Hankou Pass, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if the heavy troops are pressed against the city, it is not difficult to defend it for half a month."
Although he had already thought that Su Hangbai would not be in such a hurry unless it was a big event, Su Xuanwan didn't expect it to be like this.
They are now in a passive situation, so they have to be controlled by others.
Su Xuan's expression was extremely ugly, he had already guessed that this must be something that the queen had done in order to disperse the forces pursuing them, but how dare she secretly communicate with the Di clan.
Su Hangbai replied bitterly: "The city keeper will take the initiative to open the city gate and lead the Di people into the cold pass. ”
Without waiting for Su Xuan to ask Su Hangbai, he continued: "As soon as the Di clan enters the customs, the master will kill himself. ”
At this time, the calmest of the three was Concubine Su: "The Di clan must be expelled, but most of the imperial court's troops are in the southwest, what should I do?" ”
Hearing Su Guifei's inquiry, Su Xuan woke up from the shock of hearing the news just now, and quickly went through the current situation in his mind.
"Sister, the enthronement ceremony will be held the day after tomorrow." Su Xuan suddenly mentioned the enthronement ceremony.
Su Hangbai was stunned for a moment, and then he also spoke: "Niangniang, the younger brother seconded the proposal, one is to send troops to the north, and the name must be justified, and the other is that we can't wait for the queen to embrace the three princes as emperors first." ”
"With the three princes? Queen, does she really have this ability? Su Guifei clenched her right hand and asked nervously.
"When the courtiers fought with the queen and her party in the suburbs before, they didn't see the three princes. If the minister's guess is right, the third prince has actually been stranded in the south and has never gone north. Once the empress arrives in the south, the three princes may become emperors. Su Xuan suddenly thought of the figure who had been protecting the queen all the way, "Besides, there are people without a trace around the queen." ”
"Without a trace." Su Hangbai exclaimed.
Su Guifei's face was also extremely ugly, "Is the Ye family going to break their word, and they will send no trace." ”
Su Xuan thought about it and shook his head. Ye Jinqing is still in his mansion, Ye Qingyuan will not do this.
"The queen's maiden name is Ye Xinlan, although the first emperor claimed that she was the daughter of a small family in the south, in fact, the queen is from the Ye family in Bishan."
Su Guifei nodded when she heard this, she also vaguely knew something about this.
Su Xuan continued: "For some reason, the queen doesn't seem to have any contact with the Ye family of Bishan, although the traceless around her is inherited from Dabi Mountain, it is not really traceless, maybe the Mo Cangxing next to her used to be a traceless person. Now that we know that the three princes will rebel, we have to take advantage of the fact that the three princes have not yet gained a firm foothold, and first take over the place in the south of the Yangtze River and the original place of King Jinping. ”
Su Hangbai on the side thought carefully for a while before he spoke: "But now the King of Anping in the northwest, the Duke of Jin Heng in the southwest, the three princes in the south, and the Di clan in the north. These people are attacking at the same time, even if it is General Wang Cai, he has no skills. ”
Su Xuan pondered for a while, and seemed to have made up his mind and said, "If there is only Duke Jin Heng and the three princes, if we can get the help of the Ye family without a trace, we may be able to reverse the situation." ”
Su Guifei looked at her younger brother in surprise, knowing that he would not be untargeted, but when did he have a relationship with the Ye family. How could the Ye family willingly lend it to Traceless.
