Volume I: Painting Tang Chun Chapter 79: Head to Head

The wind blew up the snow-white and flew wantonly, blowing the sky white, and blowing the armor on the shoulders of the soldiers.

On the new day, the Danda army shouted again in front of the North City Gate, and they were accustomed to thinking that it was just a shout that could not be answered. The caller repeated the words without passion, and wandered back and forth carelessly on the war horse, with only Hai Dongqing soaring and hovering overhead. Soon he was so cold that he had to lower his voice. The forward troops behind him were also not vigilant enough and lazy, but as a nation on horseback, the soldiers still looked fierce and fierce.

A blinding light shone on the snow-covered ground, and the horses retreated, and their whiteheads neighed, and the young soldier who shouted tightened his reins, and when he looked at it, a silver spear had already sunk into the snow in front of him. He hurriedly looked up to determine what had happened, but the gate in front of him opened at some point, and a man and a horse galloped forward, and before he could see the appearance of the comer, the silver spear inserted into the snow had been pulled up and waved at him. Before he could even let out a scream, his head and body had been separated.

Zeng Qidao held the handle of the gun, pointed forward, and shouted: "Brothers of the Heavenly Wolf Battalion, today's target, the Danda Army Pioneer Battalion, no one will be left." ”

Behind him, he swallowed thousands of miles like a tiger, and the men and horses roared, stepping on snowflakes, like lightning.

On the tall and sturdy city wall, Xiao Yizheng was dressed in a regular suit, wearing a white fur coat, looking down with heavy eyes, and Zeng Ji, Xie Changxin, and other generals of the Northwest Army stood beside him.

"Stinky boy, it's better to do it twice." Zeng Jile opened his mouth, with undisguised pride in his tone.

"If Yuanyi hears the handsome man praise him like this, he will have fun for a few days." Xie Changxin's tone was also very relaxed.

Everyone laughed.

Zeng Ji saw that Xiao Yizheng was silent, his face still looked haggard and weak, so he reminded: "Your Highness doesn't need to supervise the battle in person, it's better to take care of your health." Shangdu has received news that Your Majesty is very worried about your injury and illness. ”

Xiao Yizheng frowned lightly and nodded slightly. Before he left Beijing, the emperor was already bedridden to recuperate, and he didn't know what to do at this time, he was also worried. "It's just that I have to come here today, otherwise how can I better deter him from suddenly strangling, so that he doesn't have the idea of peace."

Zeng Jimo rubbed his chin and said indignantly: "If it weren't for the fact that the weather was really cold and bad, and we also felt sorry for the soldiers, today we would simply start a battle and kill him with one blow, and he would have no power to fight back, so he would go back to Ulantu." ”

"Yes." The senior generals of the Northwest Army all held the hilts of their swords in their hands, as if they were eager to try.

Xiao Yizheng looked sideways and left and right, and said with a smile: "I know your feelings, although the current troops in the city are not as large as the people brought by Sule, but the Northwest Army from the cities around Beisu can be mobilized to come, such as the troops of the two brothers of the Zeng family, it is indeed a big battle, and he suddenly has to throw away his armor." But the lives of the soldiers are also the lives, isn't it better to surrender the soldiers without a fight? ”

Although the generals could understand his kindness, they finally felt that there was some kindness of women. A certain muttered: "Your Highness killed everyone by himself in Guiping, how can you be gentle at this time!" ”

Zeng Ji glanced back at him, slurred his lips, and reminded in a low voice: "Be careful." ”

Xiao Yizheng didn't care too much, and said with a smile: "Suddenly, it wouldn't be better to be able to obediently return to Ulantu by yourself." ”

"But what if he doesn't die?" I don't know who mentioned it again.

"He came with all the tribes of Danda to secure his throne. If he obediently retreats, what kind of prestige and dignity does he have, and the person on the throne may not be him. Dan has had a few years of chaos. Xiao Yizheng raised his hand and placed it on the city wall stone in front of him, leaned forward, and observed the battle situation.

As he spoke, a group of men and horses led by Zeng Qidao below had already driven straight in, disrupting the formation of the Danda Pioneer Battalion. The two sides fought fiercely, but they also damaged each other, but gradually the Sky Wolf Battalion controlled the whole situation, and the advantage became more and more obvious. Danta's side was defeated and retreated, and the few remaining troops turned around and retreated with men and horses, heading towards the rear base camp.

Zeng Qidao's face was bloody, but his mind was very clear. He raised his eyes and saw that the follow-up main force of the Danda army seemed to be coming to meet him, so he ordered to shrink back to the city. The soldiers of the Sky Wolf Battalion quickly took the casualties and mounted their horses, turned around and retreated. When the people entered the city gate, the city gate was closed.

Xiao Yizheng, who was on the city wall, smiled calmly, looked energetic, and said lightly: "He's here." ”

Suddenly, he sat on his horse and stepped through the battlefield with heavy casualties, and his momentum was menacing.

He is burly, with big shoulders and a round waist, a beard, and a pair of sharp eagle eyes, which sets off the petite Qiqina next to him. Kikina is still dressed in a fiery red fox fur, which is particularly dazzling in the team.

Danta's army stopped not far from the city gate, and suddenly Le and Kikina looked at the city wall together. The eyes of the two swept around, and at the same time fixed on Xiao Yizheng in the middle.

His outfit was particularly eye-catching among the generals in military uniforms and armor.

Kikina frowned and took two steps forward, wanting to see what was going on.

"The princess doesn't want to explore, thanks to your arrow, this king has really rested for several days." Xiao Yizheng opened his mouth and said loudly, but his tone was gentle and polite.

Kicina was surprised: "Is it really you?" You've been hit by seven killings and you're fine? She stared at it, and was shocked, the first two times the situation was urgent, but she didn't see it carefully, this life was so handsome, there was a faint smile on her face, and it was even warmer and better under the sun.

"Your seven killings are useless to my Dacheng soldiers, don't use these dirty methods in the future." Zeng Ji said with a smile.

Kikina came back to her senses, raised her head higher, raised her whip and said, "You don't kill people and set fires in Guiping, and your methods are not just and bright. ”

With a thud, an arrow feather landed in front of her horse. She tightened her body, and the horse took two steps back.

"Kikina, come back." Suddenly, he whispered.

She glanced at the walls again, and retreated to Hurle.

"The sixth prince of Dacheng, I, Danda, have always been straightforward. Hugh will talk more nonsense, send troops, and we will fight. Suddenly, Le's majestic voice seemed to have the power to resound through the heavens and the earth.

Xiao Yizheng gathered his eyes and said gently: "The Great Khan came from afar, it should be my Central Plains etiquette, and if he is a guest, there will be good wine and food." It's just that the Great Khan's team is too large, so we have to return the salute. Whether it is the soldiers you left in the Guiping Kingdom, or the pioneer battalion just now, it is a gift from this king to the Great Khan. However, the king still prepared delicious food and wine, and if the Great Khan returned to Ulantu with his men and horses, the king was willing to go to enjoy the scenery of the steppe and get drunk with the Great Khan. ”

"Hahaha...... "Suddenly Le looked up and laughed;" Interesting! The six princes are really interesting. I have only seen two people who can survive seven kills and never die. The soldier who can kill me so quickly and neatly is in Guiping, and the sixth prince is a character. Why do you want to go to Ulantu to get drunk, it's better to be in this Beisu City. ”

"That's not going to be easy." Xiao Yizheng's tone was calm from beginning to end: "Beisu, you can't get in this life!" The Great Khan wanted to think about whether he could return to Ulantu. Today is our welcome gift. I wanted to be peaceful, but I really didn't want to fight each other, so the Great Khan might as well think about it carefully. First of all, collect the corpses of the soldiers of your pioneer battalion, this belly is still available to the king. With that, he turned and left.

Zeng Ji, Xie Changxin, and other generals also cheered, and he turned around and walked out of the sight of the Danda people.

Suddenly, he blew his beard, and his face quickly became angry. In addition to the guards on this tower, there is only one commanding officer left, which is completely indifferent to himself. He drew his scimitar and shouted, "Warriors, attack me." ”

The soldiers behind him happened to gallop down, and suddenly the rain of arrows in the sky came like rain, and the military horses in the front row fell to the ground one after another.

Suddenly, Le and Kikina hurriedly stepped back.

The soldiers in the back row went up again, but they were blocked by the rain of arrows. In this way, even if someone goes to the city wall with baggage, they still can't go up to the city tower. Half of it was because the ice on the city wall was so smooth that it was difficult to fix any combat tools, and half because the soldiers on the tower of Dacheng fought back with all their might. In short, after tossing for a long time, the Danda people only suffered heavy losses by themselves, but they didn't even touch the gate of Beisu City.

"Great Khan, it's not a way to go on like this, let's retreat first and then find a way." Suddenly, his subordinates proposed.

Qiqina also persuaded: "Father Khan, the six princes of Dacheng are very cunning, and they don't know what conspiracy they have, let's go back first." ”

couldn't stand these three persuasions and four persuasions, and then looked at the tragic situation in front of him, and suddenly had to hate and say: "Withdraw." ”

Xiao Yizheng, who got off the city tower, gasped lightly, feeling a little tired, and his face was a little pale.

Zeng Qidao hurriedly walked over, Zeng Ji asked him a few words, he replied and walked to Xiao Yizheng's side, and asked with concern: "How is Your Highness?" ”

Xiao Yizheng smiled and waved his hand, "You have worked hard." ”

Zeng Qidao was entangled in whether to tell him whether to tell him that Qingxi had gone to Beisu just to make sure he was safe. Last night, when he left the Chunyue Inn, he told Qingxi that there would be action this morning, and Qingxi told him not to tell Xiao Yizheng about it for the time being. He felt that Qingxi might be hesitating, she wanted to see him, but she was afraid of distracting him.

"Your Highness," he just spoke.

Xie Changxin hurriedly walked over and said loudly: "Suddenly, I withdrew." ”

Xiao Yizheng's face was as usual, which was expected by him.

"Our people have just sent back the news that Zhou Chaozong has not shown up in the country for a few days."

Xiao Yizheng's face was worried: "Hurry back and discuss how we can intercept if we suddenly send people to settle down." He seemed to remember something again, and said to Zeng Qidao: "What did you have to say just now?" ”

Zeng Qidao paused, but still shook his head lightly: "Your Highness is busy with business first, I also want to remind Your Highness to take care of yourself." ”

Xiao Yizheng smiled, patted him on the shoulder, stepped into the carriage, and returned to the Shuai Mansion.

On the other side, there were two uninvited guests in the first-class room of the Chunyue Inn.
