Chapter 9: Shengjing
The battle between the Protoss and the Yu Clan has always been very fierce, on the side of the Yu Clan's left wing army, Ji Yuebai always remembered that Yu Qingling had given his order before leaving, to fight a war of attrition with the Protoss army, and our army could not have too many losses.
According to this order, Ji Yuebai issued two orders: First, if the Protoss army started a war, the Yu Clan army would withdraw to the city wall, using the hard city wall, no matter how many Protoss troops numbered and how fierce the offensive was, the Feather Army would suffer few casualties.
The second order is: If the Protoss army does not fight, when it is resting, send a team to attack secretly. For this reason, the soldiers of the Protoss army often heard a scream at night, and the next day they would find that several Protoss soldiers were killed in the camp tent, so the Protoss army hid their weapons at the bedside when they slept at night, but before they could take out their weapons in a hurry, their throats were cut, and after that, the Protoss army did not dare to sleep.
These two orders issued by the Yu Clan made the Protoss army suffer, and the entire army was very tired.
On the second day of the Protoss military camp, Yu Qingling found the baggage warehouse in the military camp, and she decided to burn down the baggage warehouse tonight, and then leave here to go back to preside over the battle of the Yu Clan. But remembering that she promised Yun He to stay with him here for a few days, she could only secretly apologize, after all, he was the god monarch of the God Clan, and he was his biggest enemy, although Yun He let her go this time, but on the battlefield in the future, no matter who saw him, he would never show mercy.
Night fell quietly, the fine fragments of the sky full of stars, hanging in the dark night, the lonely night with the company of the stars, no longer lonely.
The moon is very round tonight, and the soft moonlight is sprinkled on Yu Qingling's body, and it is also sprinkled on the bright moon sword on her waist, echoing with the moonlight, and the whole body of the sword is snow-white, faintly shining. Yu Qingling, dressed in black, stood on the roof of the house, waiting for the soldiers patrolling the brigade to leave the baggage warehouse.
After the patrol left, Yu Qingling jumped from the roof, and landed without any sound, and the soldiers guarding the door did not hear it.
Yu Qingling quietly walked to the guarding soldiers, only to see a flash of silver light, and several soldiers fell silently, there was no trace of panic on their faces, they didn't feel anything, they were already dead.
Yu Qingling poured fire oil on the ground of the baggage warehouse, lit the fire, and the entire baggage warehouse was instantly ablaze.
The Protoss soldiers woke up from their dreams and saw the sky-high fire out of proportion for a while, until Qin Yishuang appeared on the high city wall, and then organized the Protoss soldiers to effectively extinguish the fire, Qin Yishuang realized that this fire was set out strangely, it was very likely that the enemy army sent people to break into the barracks, and this work had just started, and the arsonist might not have had time to leave the barracks. So he commanded all the archers to prepare to shoot the arsonists, and the archers fired their arrows in the darkness of the night, when they could not see their fingers, and the arrows flew like thin threads of rain falling from the sky.
Yu Qingling could hardly see the exact location of the arrow in the dark, but she was still hit by an arrow in the process of escaping.
Yu Qingling instantly felt that her skills were lost, her movements slowed down a lot, and finally the soldiers of the Protoss discovered her location, Qin Yishuang saw the comer and shouted: "Catch it alive!" So a large number of soldiers rushed to Yu Qingling, Yu Qingling's feet were soft at the moment, and her eyes gradually became blurred, and she was about to faint, suddenly a strong hand held her shoulder, and before she could react, Yunhe's hand grabbed her hand holding the sword along her shoulder, and put the blade on her neck.
Yu Qingling understood that Yunhe wanted to hold Yunhe hostage so that he could get out, so he used all his strength to hold the Mingyue Sword, endured the severe pain, and pretended to be calm.
Seeing that Yunhe was being held hostage, the soldiers did not dare to act rashly, and looked at Qin Yishuang who was standing on a high place.
Although Qin Yishuang looked down on Yunhe, he was the nominal god monarch after all, and if he died at the hands of thieves, it would be bad for the reputation of the god clan, so Qin Yishuang waved his hand and motioned for the soldiers to retreat.
Yu Qingling and Yunhe were able to escape and fled to a forest, but Yu Qingling couldn't hold on to his hands and lost his sword.
In the last few seconds, Yu Qingling only saw Yun He's anxious face and the two or three words that Yun He had been reading in his mouth: "Red Feather Poison."
"Red Feather Poison, what is it?" Yu Qingling wanted to ask Yunhe, but she couldn't make a sound, and only these three words appeared repeatedly in her mind.
When Yu Qingling woke up, there were only Xuanyu and Ji Yuebai around, and they were all worried.
Yu Qingling got up and shook her head, Xuanyu saw that Yu Qingling woke up, and hurriedly helped her up.
"Your Highness, you're awake!"
Yu Qingling had slept for too long, her head was a little dizzy, she helped her head and asked Xuanyu, "How many days have I been asleep?"
"Your Highness, it's been two days since you suddenly returned here that night for some unknown reason."
The proclamation was a little hesitant: "Your Highness, that ......"
"What's wrong? Declaration, you just say it. ”
Xuanyu's eyes closed as if he had made up his mind: "Your Highness, the military doctor has already seen it, Your Highness has been poisoned by the Protoss to fight against the Feather Clan, called Red Feather Poison"
Yu Qingling recalled that night, remembered that Yunhe had saved herself, and remembered the three words Yunhe said: "Red Feather Poison, it turns out that this is what it means." …… Yu Qingling was thinking back to what had happened these days, and suddenly thought of a little Yu Qingling and asked Ji Yuebai eagerly: "General Ji, how is the war like water?"
Ji Yuebai scratched his head and said with a smile: "Your Highness broke into the enemy barracks alone and burned the baggage warehouse of the Protoss Army, and the Protoss Army is mostly tired, and the Protoss Army fled in the desert yesterday, left like water, and returned to Shengjing."
Yu Qingling breathed a sigh of relief: "So, we won."
Ji Yuebai said seriously: "Yes, Your Highness, we won!"
"Your Highness, you must come to the celebration banquet prepared for the soldiers tonight!" Ji Yuebai invited earnestly.
Yu Qingling nodded: "You have a heart, you led the Yu Clan Army, and it only took three days to defeat the Protoss Army that was more than twice as large as my Clan's army, you are the real hero!"
Ji Yuebai saw Yu Qingling praising him like this, and he was not modest: "Your Highness, the Protoss army is just more numerous, and it doesn't support the fight at all, and if there are hundreds of thousands, our Yu Clan army is all elite, and we can still fight."
Hearing Ji Yuebai say this, Xuanyu and Yu Qingling on the side laughed.
That night, the Yu Clan camp was immersed in the joy of victory.
Yu Qingling toasted a round of wine at the celebration banquet. Everyone was drunk, and Yu Qingling came out of the banquet and went to a secluded place. Xuanyu didn't like to be lively, and left with Yu Qingling.
"Your Highness, aren't you going to celebrate the victory with everyone?"
Yu Qingling thought to herself: "If there is no Yunhe, I am afraid that I will not even be able to save my life, let alone win the war." However, she didn't want to say it, and swept everyone's interest, their Yu clan did win, but it was not her own victory, but the victory of the Yu clan soldiers and people.
So Yu Qingling didn't answer her words: "Xuanyu, have you ever seen snow?"
"Your Majesty has never seen snow, Your Majesty was born in the nobility of the Yu Clan, the climate of the Yu Clan is mild, it has never snowed, and it only snows around Shengjing of the Protoss."
Yu Qingling nodded: "That's right, calculate the time, Shengjing of the Protoss should start the first snow!"
Xuanyu nodded: "Yes, the first snow in Shengjing is probably in the past few days."
"Has Wei Dutong joined us?"
"Your Highness, Wei Dutong is on the periphery of the water at this time, observing every move of the Protoss, the Protoss has fully retreated, and Wei Dutong will come to converge tomorrow."
"Well, when you join Wei Dutong tomorrow, you should hurry up and return to the court, remember to let Wei Dutong control the army well, and don't forcibly expropriate people's wealth." The army has just experienced the war, and the soldiers are inevitably proud, and when they are proud, they feel that everything is right, and it is inevitable that some things will burn, kill, and loot, which is the most headache for Yu Qingling.
Xuanyu was a little confused: "Your Highness, aren't you going back?"
Yu Qingling turned her head and smiled a little sadly at Xuanyu: "I, I want to go and see the first snow in Shengjing." Yu Qingling was wearing a red armor, and her long black hair was blown up by the wind. Although Xuanyu is a girl, she can't help but marvel when she sees this picture: "How can there be such a beautiful woman in the world."
"Well, Your Highness, I'll go with you." Xuanyu was slightly stunned.
Yu Qingling turned back and no longer looked at Xuanyu: "The fewer people who know about this, the better."
Xuanyu still didn't let go: "But Your Highness, your martial arts have been lost, and Your Majesty is very worried."
Yu Qingling turned around and smiled at her, this smile seemed to be a drug that confused Xuanyu's mind: "You are the most trusted person by my side, and the royal army still relies on you, how can I rest assured that you don't stay."
Yu Qingling's smile was like an intoxicating medicine, no matter what Yu Qingling said, all that was left was nodding in the declaration.
Yu Qingling saw that Xuanyu agreed, and the smile on her face became even brighter, but Xuanyu didn't see it, because Yu Qingling had already turned her back and left.
Early the next morning, Xuanyu wanted to go to Yu Qingling's room to try his luck and see if Yu Qingling hadn't left yet.
Xuanyu knocked on the door first as usual: "Your Highness, are you there?"
There was no sound, and after a while, there was still no sound. Xuanyu pushed the door in, only to see that the room was empty, clean as if no one had ever lived in it.
As soon as Yu Qingling walked like this, Xuanyu felt a little reluctant, and his heart seemed to be missing, and he was very uneasy. But soon, some trivial matters of the army filled the heart that was missing a piece of the declaration. What is the number of troops, the route back to Korea, food supplies...... was so busy that Xuanyu was dizzy, and at this time she was very dissatisfied with Yu Qingling's behavior of leaving the army and going to see the beautiful scenery alone without her.
In the afternoon of that day, Wei You led the royal army stationed in Luoshui Town to meet Yu Qingling.
Wei You heard the announcement that Yu Qingling was not there, frowned slightly dissatisfied, and asked, "Where is Your Highness?" Wei You always speaks very simply, he doesn't say anything nice, and he always makes the people who talk to him feel that he has a lot of disrespect for himself.
Xuanyu knew him, and he didn't care about his tone, and replied respectfully: "Lord Dutong, Your Majesty doesn't know where His Royal Highness Ling is." Because His Royal Highness Ling had explained Xuanyu before leaving, the less people knew about this matter, the better, so even Wei Dutong, who was usually closest to Yu Qingling, she didn't tell her.
When Wei Dutong heard Xuanyu's answer, he didn't say a word, and turned to leave. If it were someone else, Xuanyu would be furious, and he couldn't wait to beat the person opposite, who made her the person opposite the royal army the capital, full of meritorious service, and won the trust of His Royal Highness Ling!
Three days later, Yu Qingling arrived in Shengjing, which is the capital of the Protoss and the most prosperous city in the entire continent, unlike the solemnity and daunting of the Yu Clan. It is not like the rivers of Kyoto of the human race, which are majestic and magnificent. The prosperity of the Protoss Shengjing is full of fireworks, full of the shouts of small merchants and vendors, the chatting and frolicking of women and children, and the bold laughter of sturdy men.
At this time, it was the first snow that fell in Shengjing, and there were not many people on both sides of the street, but there were more children than usual.
Yu Qingling saw that several children were rolling snow on the ground, rolling big and round, Yu Qingling had never seen it before, she was very curious, and quietly walked to the children's side.
Yu Qingling is not like wearing armor on the battlefield, and she is very heroic. She changed into a red robe, and it was not as gorgeous as she usually did in the Feather Palace. This red robe is simple and does not have too many decorations, but it makes the cold and glamorous Yu Qingling a little more lively.
Several children were a little stunned when they saw Yu Qingling beside them, and after a while, I don't know which child took the lead and shouted: "Sister Tianxian, Sister Tianxian!"
