Chapter Ninety-Eight: That Man Is Guarded by Me
Since Xu Feng returned to the camp, Han Yu has locked himself in the house all day long.
During this period, Xu Yun came with a letter from Zhou Ning, which said that Xia Fan wanted to frame Han Yu for plotting a rebellion. However, Han Yu was unmoved, and only dropped the sentence "Life and death are fate, no complaints and no regrets", and even coaxed people out of the inn with a letter.
Although Wang Ze didn't know the details, he also guessed one or two, and he couldn't bear Han Yu's will to sink and die unjustly.
That night, he conspired with Li Ping to negotiate - he intended to unite the 500 soldiers stationed outside the city for many days to attack Xiabei County.
"Damn, I've endured enough! This group of miscellaneous people should really be bullied by our Nanda camp? β
Regarding Wang Ze's proposal, Li Ping not only raised his hands to agree, but also wanted to be a pioneer officer, and immediately prepared to lead the army.
"Fight is a must fight! Now that Xia Fan is dying by himself, it is a good time for the division to become famous, but it is just ......" Wang Ze suddenly said with a worried face, "Xia Fan's garrison is said to have 50,000 people, and the troops I brought with me rushed to go there are tantamount to hitting stones with eggs and killing themselves!" β
"It was you who just said that you were going to fight, and now it's you who is cowardly before you fight!" Li Ping jumped up anxiously and shouted at Wang Ze in a dissatisfied voice, "It's all at this juncture, what should I do according to you!" β
Wang Ze didn't know how to fight this battle, and all the possibilities began to run rapidly in his mind, but he still didn't know what to do if he thought about it.
Just when they were at a loss, they suddenly heard a movement outside the house, and the two immediately got up vigilantly and stuck to the door to investigate, but they heard a soft female voice outside the door, "It's my ......"
Although the voice was low, Li Ping could hear that it was Gu Yuexi. Cautiously opened the door, poked his head out and skimmed in the direction where Han Yu lived, and saw that the light from the doors and windows was still thereβit must be reading at night again, so he asked with a long sigh of relief, "It's so late, what are you doing?" β
Gu Yuexi didn't reply, she went straight into the house, and sat calmly at the tea table under the bewildered gazes of the two, before she spoke, "I know that you plan to attack Xiabei County without telling my father-in-law......"
"You're a father-in-law?"
Wang Ze stood aside and was stunned for a long time, and was quietly pulled by Li Ping from the corner of his clothes, and said in his ear, "It's the general......
Wang Ze suddenly realized, looked Gu Yuexi up and down, and then smiled, "You little girl, I see that you are only twenty years old, do you know what war is?" How dare you say this......"
"Eighteen years old......" Li Ping hurriedly reminded quietly.
"Ziyuan! It's all at this juncture, you still have the leisure to cooperate with her to mess around! Wang Ze glared at Li Ping fiercely, and then said sharply at Gu Yuexi, "Girl, I don't care what you overheard, I have to go back to the house quickly!" β
Gu Yuexi didn't have the slightest intention of leaving, raised her eyes to look at the two of them, and said faintly, "When I didn't find my father-in-law, I lived in Xiabei County for a few years!" Maybe it can help you......"
After hearing this, Wang Ze looked at Li Ping, and after seeing him nodding, he sat down in disbelief, and said to Gu Yuexi, "Fang is my recklessness, and I hope the girl will forgive her sins." But I don't know what the girl's plan is? β
Gu Yuexi chuckled, "Dare to ask the general, if you can exterminate the gang of soldiers and bandits in Xiabei County, will you be able to save my family's father-in-law?" β
"This ......"
Wang Ze didn't have a full grasp of this, after all, the danger in front of Han Yu now was not only Xia Fan's branch? Then he replied with a solemn face,
"Don't dare to deceive the girl, the situation facing the general is extremely dangerous, but even if I try my life, I will protect the general!"
After hearing this, Gu Yuexi's face gradually became a little brighter, "As long as I can help my family get out of trouble and keep him safe, I will have no regrets even if it is a sea of swords!" β
Then he breathed a long sigh of relief, and showed a bleak smile as if he had made up his mind, "Although I don't know the art of war and fight, I know something about Xia Fan. This person was originally a concubine of the Song Kingdom, but he has been secretly looking for the only bloodline of the Song family in the people, "Princess Anrong", in a vain attempt to seek a chance to restore the country. β
"Princess Anrong?" Wang Ze didn't care about it, and hurriedly asked, "Who is this woman's surname?" Where are you? β
"Her real name is Yang Yingying, and she has a blooming peony flower embroidered on her left shoulder, which is very easy to distinguish, as for this person......" Gu Yuexi said this, and suddenly choked up and paused.
Wang Ze's eyes were like torches, staring at Gu Yuexi tightly, "Where are the people?" β
Gu Yuexi exhaled, her slightly haggard face turned dull and sallow under the light of the oil lamp, and she forcibly cheered up and chuckled, "The person is already dead......
"Dead?"
Wang Ze almost screamed, stunned on the spot, his expression was as dead as a disillusionment.
On the side, Li Ping was still quite sober, and hurriedly asked, "Since this is the case, why do you want to tell us about this?" β
"Although the person is dead, but Yang Yingying is the same age as me, I can pretend to be her identity and blend into Xia Fan's army, and when the time comes, I will use fire as a signal - after I kill this person, you will wave your army into the city!"
Although this plan was risky but feasible, Li Ping felt that this matter was too strange, so he asked suspiciously, "Girl, how do you know this?" Especially how did you know about the Song Kingdom's court? β
"This ......" Gu Yuexi looked embarrassed, and replied a little hesitantly, "This matter is a long story, and I will talk to the two generals in detail later." The top priority is to save my family first! β
Although Wang Ze and Li Ping were puzzled, they also felt that it was urgent to save Han Yu, so they did not study it in detail. But after all, this matter is very important, Wang Ze still has something to understand, so he asked, "Girl, do you know that you are like a sheep entering the tiger's den this time, and you will lose your life if you are not careful!" Have you really thought about the consequences? β
After hearing this, Gu Yuexi smiled sadly, "That man is not only protected by you, but also me!" You can spare your lives for his sake, let alone me! β
Hearing this, Wang Ze felt a sense of admiration for Gu Yuexi in his heart, and turned his head to look at Li Pingdao, "This is really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows!" β
Immediately pulled Li Ping to get up together, and bowed to Gu Yuexi, "I am here to thank the girl for her righteous help for all the soldiers of the Nanda Battalion!" Such a great kindness, my Nanda camp is unforgettable! β
Seeing this, Gu Yuexi hurriedly got up and saluted back, "What did the general say?" I'm just trying to save my family, so why do I need to say thank you? β
"I wonder when the girl plans to act?" Wang Ze was worried that Han Yu didn't have time to be polite.
"By the general's orders!"
"Okay," Wang Ze saw that Gu Yuexi's face was determined, and immediately clapped his head, "Three days later, I will lead the army to ambush around Xiabei County, just waiting for the girl to use fire as a number!" β
"Wait a minute!" Seeing that the two of them had made such a major decision easily, Li Ping suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, pulled Wang Ze's clothes by the corner, and said in a low voice, "It's no wonder that the clouds are covered, it's not me who poured cold water." But I always feel that this is too easy for you to say, what if it fails? β
Wang Ze was stunned for a moment, then pulled Li Ping to the side and whispered, "Isn't it worth it to exchange the lives of one person for the lives of our five hundred soldiers?" β
"You!" When Li Ping heard this, his eyes widened and he almost shouted, "You are deliberately using her as bait!" If the general knows, he won't spare us easily! β
"Ziyuan, don't worry......" Wang Ze patted him lightly on the back and persuaded, "This matter is my own idea, and it has nothing to do with you!" As long as you can save the general, you can chop me alive! β
"You're messing around!" Li Ping shook off Wang Ze's hand and replied in a low voice with anger on his face, "You and I have been fighting for the general for many years, since we know that this girl is going to die for nine lives, why did you let her give her life in vain?" β
Wang Ze said with a smile, "As long as there is a one-in-10,000 way to save the general, I must try!" Even if it is the same as the two of us, there will be no regrets! β
"But that being said......"
Seeing that Li Ping was chattering about something, Wang Ze immediately interrupted, "Then tell me, what else can I do to save the general now!" Do you want to use the 500 soldiers and horses we brought? β
Li Ping was speechless by what he said, and couldn't stop sighing, "But you can't let her take this risk......"
"Although this girl didn't say it explicitly, I always feel that her origin is not simple, and I am afraid that it is related to the Song royal court!" Wang Ze didn't want to have a senseless dispute with Li Ping over this matter, and finally said the truth in his heart.
"I know this!" Li Ping replied solemnly, "But I see her affection for the general, if she hadn't sacrificed herself to protect ...... that night."
"So what?" Wang Ze said coldly, "Don't forget that the Song Imperial Court has a deep blood feud with the general!" If she is really from the Song Kingdom, wouldn't that lead the wolf into the house? β
"You ......"
Li Ping knew that what Wang Ze said made sense, but for so many days, Gu Yuexi had seen what she had done to Han Yu. If it was really a Song person with a bad intention, he would have a chance to kill Han Yu at any time, so there was no need to wait until this time.
"Ziyuan, listen to me," Wang Ze knew Li Ping's stubbornness after he decided on the matter, so he whispered and relieved, "You just have to stay by the general's side these days!" I, Wang Yunfu, promise you that I will do everything I can to protect this girlβunless I am unfortunately killed......" Wang Ze couldn't help but laugh to himself.
"Cloudy!" Li Ping put a hand on Wang Ze's shoulder with a stern expression, and said with a straight face, "I'll wait for you to come back safely, and then our brothers will drink it for three days and three nights, and we won't get drunk!" β
Wang Ze's eyes moistened instantly, and he tried to squeeze out a smile with red eyes, "We have already stepped into the coffin with one foot for the generals, why are we still so hypocritical?" If I Wang Yunfu can't come back, remember to bring a message to the general - I, Wang Yunfu, have received the general's love and can't repay it, and it is unforgivable to act without an order this time, if there is an afterlife, I will continue to charge for him, without complaint or regret! β
