"Dream, don't worry, I won't let you down." Yu Wending hugged Nangong Meng into his arms, and his eyes were as tender as water.

However, before Yu Wending's mansion was built, bad news came back from the front, completely shattering the longing of the two.

In the spring of 479 Yueli Country, Xichen adopted the strategy of luring the enemy into depth, and deployed the main force of the Nanlin army in a place 800 miles north of Yuenan Mountain in Yuejia City, Yueli Country, and came to Yuejia City to attack the city with 50,000 elite soldiers.

At this time, the war has lasted for several months, Yueli lost ten cities in a row, Yuwen Chirui retreated into Yuejia City, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and defended together with the 100,000 troops sent by the imperial court to reinforce, Xichen attacked the city for ten days, but to no avail.

On this day, Xichen went to the city again to challenge, but was shot by a stray arrow. The commander was injured, the Nanlin army was disheartened, and the long-term attack was exhausted, so the siege was abandoned, and the retreat was turned around.

Yuwen Chi Rui, who was sitting on the top of the tower of Yuejia City and supervising the battle, was overjoyed in his heart, feeling that this was simply a godsend. For several months, Yueli's army was forced to retreat by Na Xichen, and now, Xichen was seriously injured and there were not many of his men, which was a great opportunity to capture him alive.

"Open the gates! This prince will personally lead the troops to arrest Xichen! Yuwen Chirui stood up, his eyes shining.

"The eldest prince, lest there be fraud. This Xichen has always been cunning and cunning, and he is good at cheating, and the eldest prince chases him out like this, so be careful. The general Haikun, who was standing on the side, hurriedly stopped.

"Isn't General Haikun stupid? Or are you too confused after losing the battle? Yuwen Chi Rui snorted, with a look of impatience and disdain, "The main force of the Nanlin army is stationed eight hundred miles north of Yuenan Mountain, and it has been ten days since Xichen brought elite soldiers to attack the city, and the fifty thousand elite soldiers are exhausted. And we have an army of 100,000 that has been recuperating. Now that Xichen is seriously injured, I will lead this 100,000 army to chase and kill, are you still afraid that he will not succeed? How can such an opportunity be missed in vain? ”

"However, the safety of the eldest prince is critical, so let Weichen lead the troops to chase after him!" After a few months of getting along, Hai Kun already knew that Lu Dao Yuwen Chi Rui was a self-righteous person, once he made up his mind, he couldn't listen to the opinions of others at all, so he had to retreat at this time and take the initiative to ask for help to ensure his integrity.

"Not necessarily! This prince is going to chase it personally! Yuwen Chi Rui naturally regarded this as the best opportunity to make meritorious contributions in his heart, if he could seize Xichen with his own hands, then the position of the crown prince would be an ironclad matter.

As he spoke, Yuwen Chi Rui had already gotten off the city tower, turned over his war horse, and led the army out of the city.

Xichen's 50,000 elite soldiers fled all the way to the north, throwing away their armor along the way, looking decadent. In addition, many wounded sergeants had greatly reduced their combat effectiveness, and they were caught up by the pursuing soldiers and directly fell to the ground to sue for peace. Seeing this, Yu Wending was even more energetic, and in order to win quickly, he commanded an army of 100,000 to speed up and catch up.

On the way, Xichen, who was hit by an arrow, vomited blood repeatedly, had no intention of fighting, and only fled. Yuwen Chi Rui saw him in front of him three times and five times, but he never managed to break through the defense of his elite soldiers, and continued to chase wildly with red eyes, getting farther and farther away from Yuejia City.

"The eldest prince, it's getting late, we can't chase any further, let's go back to the city." Haikun was always unsteady in his heart, and came forward to stop it again.

Seeing that he was about to catch Xichen, Yuwen Chi Rui was willing to listen and continued to chase after him. Turning a canyon, the Nanlin Army in front of it disappeared.

Hai Kun was suspicious, looked up at the surrounding terrain, and found that there were dangerous peaks and cliffs on both sides of this canyon, and there was also a dead end ahead.

Before the army turned around, only a drum was heard, and a large number of Nanlin troops suddenly appeared on the cliffs on both sides, and rolling stones and arrows roared towards the 100,000 Yueli army in the valley. The 50,000 elite soldiers who lured the Yueli army to this point also turned around and killed them from the front, swept away the malaise, shouted and shook the sky, and the killing sound shook the ground, overwhelmingly killing the Yueli army that wanted to evacuate.

Xi Chen, who had been hit by arrows and vomited blood several times, was as steady as Mount Tai on his war horse at this time, where did he still look a little injured? Xi Chen looked coldly at the chaotic Yueli army, and only spit out one word coldly, "Kill!" ”

Yueli's army suddenly suffered from this change, and for a while he only felt dizzy, there was no way out to escape, and the back road was robbed and killed alive, and the rocks and arrows flew in the mountains, killing people in every way. In the panic, there was only the ability to parry, and there was no power to fight back, and people turned on their backs, trampled on each other, and suffered countless casualties.

After a fierce battle, Yueli's 100,000-strong army was almost completely wiped out. Haikun was killed by random arrows to protect Yuwen Chi Rui. Yuwen Chirui was also captured alive by Xi Chen.

When the news came back to Yueli Capital, the court was shocked, and Yuwen Aoli's face was cold and black. Those ministers who advocated that day that Yuwen Chirui led the troops to march in person were all walking on thin ice, for fear that the emperor would be unhappy and blame, so they cut off their heads.

Mo Yu wiped his tears in the harem every day. What does it mean to steal a chicken and not to lose a handful of rice, I believe she is in such a mood at the moment. And Mo Yu's biggest ally, Ye Mu Chiye, was also sighing all day long at this time, and there was no trace of the past brilliance.

Prime Minister Nangong was ordered to go to Yuejia City to negotiate peace with Xichen. Before leaving, Yuwen Aoli had a secret conversation with Nangong, and at all costs, he must bring back the eldest prince Yuwen Chi Rui.

When Nangong Meng went to the Broken Intestine Cliff, he naturally told Yu Wending the news. Yu Wending felt a little uneasy in his heart, it seemed that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings. Yuwen Aoli has always been a very proud king, and now for Yuwen Chirui, he has to take the initiative to seek peace, and his mood can be imagined. Yu Wending sighed, but looked forward to his father summoning him to the court as soon as possible, hoping to do his best to help his father share his worries.

After Nangong Jue arrived in Yuejia City, he immediately sent a post to Xi Chen, hoping for peace talks. I never thought that Xichen would refuse to meet, but just asked the messenger to inform Nangong Jue that Nanlin agreed to negotiate peace, but the conditions had to be proposed by Duanmu Qian, the king of Nanlin, to ask Nangong Jue to wait for his news.

Nangong Jue ate a soft nail, and in desperation, he could only take precautions under the deployment of Yuejia City, waiting day by day.

In anxious and uneasy waiting, the days passed day by day, and on this day, Xichen's messenger came to deliver a message, and Nangong Jue immediately left the city and rushed to the military camp of the Nanlin army.

In the main camp tent, Xichen was dressed in military uniform, majestic. Seeing Nangong Jue, he smiled slightly, "The prime minister came in person, and he missed the distance!" ”

Even though Nangong Jue was dissatisfied in his heart, he also smiled easily on his face, "The general doesn't have to be polite, the king of Nanlin should come in person when he sends a message." ”

"The emperor's secret letter was delivered last night, and there was only one condition on the letter - harmony." After Xi Chen finished speaking, he looked straight at Nangong Jue with a hint of a sinister smile on his face.
