Chapter 48: Autumn water, long clouds, dark snow mountains, lonely city looking at Jialing Pass

Dongyi Kingdom Chen Wangfu

The night is as cool as water, around the tall and majestic palace, the ancient trees are towering, there is a gurgling sound of flowing water in the distance, a bright crescent moon is hanging high above the antique corner tower, with a gust of breeze coming, the green veil around the corner tower rises in the wind, a man in a long costume is standing in the building with a wine jug in his hand, with a solemn expression!

"Shadow, come out!"

When the man in black heard the sound, he immediately deftly jumped down from the treetops, and a turnaround in the air had already reached behind Chu Yujin.

"Lord, what do you command?"

"Shadow, how many years have you been following this king?"

"My subordinates have followed the prince since he was fifteen years old, and now it has been eleven years!"

"It's been eleven years, time flies so fast, I still remember clearly, my father-in-law brought you to me for the first time, you were already like an adult at a young age, saluted me, called me a young master, said that you are good at light skills, assassination, and seeing things at night."

"Later, my father-in-law said to me, you will be my shadow in the future, responsible for secretly protecting my safety, I asked you what your name is, but you told me, you don't have a name, let me call you whatever you want, when I was young, I really gave you the name of shadow casually, and then this name is eleven years."

Chu Yujin had already entered the memories of the year, and the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously.

"The shadow will always be the shadow of the prince."

Chu Yujin smiled faintly at him when he heard this, and there was a little bitterness in that smile.

"You know what? In the past, no matter where I was, no matter what I did, no matter how difficult it was, I was never afraid, because I knew that my stepfather and you would always be behind me, helping me through the test, and guarding my safety, but now when I turned around, I suddenly lost my stepfather. ”

Chu Yujin suddenly felt sad and physically and mentally exhausted.

"Lord Wang! The shadow will always be behind you. ”

Chu Yujin smiled faintly again, and then said in a low voice: "But I still hope to be the same as before!" ”

The shadow felt that the prince of tonight suddenly seemed to be a different person, and he was afraid that the king of Dongyi really chilled his heart this time.

"Lord Wang, are you really going to fight at the border?"

The shadow looked at Chu Yujin and was silent for a long time, but finally asked.

"Go, how can you not go? The king told the minister to die, and the minister had to die, not to mention that he just sent me to fight. ”

"It's not worth it!"

"Are you saying it's not worth working for someone like King Dongyi, hehe, of course it's not worth it, but this Dongyi country won't always be his."

Chu Yujin couldn't help but snort coldly, and a grim look suddenly appeared on her face.

Dongyi, Qiushuiguan

Chu Yujin was dressed in general armor, with a heroic posture, pointing to the simulated topographic map of Jialing Pass on the table, and was arranging his troops.

"Jialing Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the whole is asymmetrical, so our first thing to do is to lure the enemy out, and then the second army will be lined up in a glaive formation, the whole army is in an arc configuration, shaped like a crescent moon, this king will stand at the bottom of the crescent moon concave, and we will focus on attacking the flanks when fighting, and resist the enemy with thick moon rings."

"Lord Wang, the bottom is the weakest point of the entire array, it's too dangerous, let's let the last general be at the bottom of the crescent concave moon, Lord Wang, you are on the flank to defend." Gao Yuming, a former vanguard general of the army, said.

"General Gao underestimated this king, and everything is still according to the drill arranged by this king."

When the generals heard this, they hurriedly persuaded in unison: "Lord Wang! Your status is honorable, and you must ensure your safety. ”

"Life is equally precious to everyone, since this king is standing here, he has no distinction with you, and this king has his own intention to arrange this way, you generals don't need to talk about it, follow the plan!"

"Yes, Lord Wang!"

All the generals responded in unison.

Since they cooperated with Chu Yujin for a month, they have already admired his ability to lead troops to fight and arrange troops, especially Gao Yuming, who has completely regarded Chu Yujin as a model for him to learn, on the contrary, everyone only expressed their commitment to Zhu Zhao, who is the commander of the three armies, and they were false and wronged.

"General Zhu!"

The voice of the guard outside the door came into the big tent, and everyone's faces showed disgust, and then when they saw Zhu Zhao who walked in with a swagger, everyone hurriedly folded their hands and saluted: "General Zhu!" ”

Only Chu Yujin walked straight to the main seat at this time, sat down peacefully, and then glanced at Zhu Zhao coldly.

Although Zhu Zhao is named the commander of the three armies, his level is one level higher than Chu Yujin, but no matter how much he has the support of the prince, he does not dare to openly communicate with His Royal Highness King Chen, so he still politely bowed his hand to Chu Yujin and said: "His Royal Highness King Chen!" ”

"Hmmm! Why did General Zhu come so late? We've just lined up the queue. Chu Yujin said expressionlessly.

"Am I late? Yesterday, General Ben informed that the formation of the queue would be demonstrated at the beginning of today's Chen, and now that it has just arrived, why is General Ben late? Zhu Zhao said hurriedly.

"Oh, is it? Wasn't yesterday the time to be announced? ”

Chu Yujin raised her eyes and looked at the people in the tent.

Everyone will understand.

"Yes, it was the time of the notification, General Zhu remembered it wrong!" Everyone said.

"How could it be, General Ben personally informed him, how could he be mistaken?"

Zhu Zhaoqi's face was red, and he looked at the people in the tent viciously, but everyone spoke in unison, but they confused what he said, and for a while even he thought that he had misremembered the time.

"Then, it may be that General Ben is busy with military affairs and remembers the wrong time! Please also ask the prince to tell me again about the queue formation that has just been laid out! ”

"Say it again? This king is tired, so let others talk to General Zhu and listen! Chu Yujin glanced at Zhu Zhao, and walked out of the tent directly after speaking.

Everyone hurriedly bowed down at the same time and said, "Congratulations to the prince!" ”

After finishing speaking, they immediately dispersed, leaving only Zhu Zhao and his staff with wide eyes.

Zhu Zhao was angry and shouted at the identity of the general: "The most taboo thing to fight on the march is to centrifuge between the main generals, and cooperate with such people, how do you want this general to fight?" ”

The general behind him was covered with cold sweat and did not dare to respond.

To the north, Yongzhou border pass barracks

"General Shen, your lips are dead and your teeth are cold, this time Dongyi is fighting with me Nan'an under the banner of recovering Jialing Pass, but in fact, he wants to attack Yongji Pass again from Jialing Pass to the north. The general should not be underestimated! Could it be that the general forgot how the king of Dongyi was treacherous and captured three cities in the north in a row? ”

Regarding the relationship between the First Battle of Jialing Pass and the life and death of the north, Nan'an's envoy has been talking to Shen He for an hour!

Shen He nodded again and again on the surface, but he was actually extremely bored, and after seeing Ye Hu enter the account, he hurriedly found an excuse to flash himself, leaving only Ye Hu to greet the envoy.

After Ye Hu inquired in detail about some details of the battle between the envoy Dongyi and Nan'an, he couldn't help but look at Chu Yujin in his heart.

According to the envoy, he can change his body back and forth in the eyes of the glaive, killing and invisible.

In the first battle between the two armies, Nan'an suffered heavy losses, so he hurried to the north to ask for help.

Recently, Ye Hu is also learning various formations, and he also happens to have studied the Glaive Formation, looking at the terrain of Jialing Pass, it is indeed the most suitable to use this formation.

This formation focuses on attacking the flanks during the battle, resisting the enemy with a thick moon ring, the recess of the crescent moon seems to be weak, but it contains danger, the people in the recess of the crescent moon in this formation are the most dangerous, and at the same time the most critical, and according to the description of the envoy of Nan'an, Chu Yujin is standing in this position.

With King Chen's precious body, when the two armies were fighting, he was alone in the most dangerous place, putting aside everything else, which made Ye Hu admire in his heart.

"Chu Yujin, you deserve to fight with me!"

Ye Hu finally promised the envoy of Nan'an that he would try his best to persuade General Shen He to assist in the battle between Nan'an and Dongyi, and the envoy returned to Jialing Pass step by step.

In the afternoon of the same day, Shen He summoned the congregation to his big tent to discuss whether to aid Nan'an this time.

Most of the generals did not support it, on the grounds that Jialing Pass was originally Dongyi's territory, and it was Nan'an who took advantage of the war with Dongyi in the north to grab Dongyi's territory, and it was understandable that Dongyi wanted to recover the lost land this time.

Second, Beilin and Dongyi have fought many times, and Nan'an has never helped, but this time he brazenly asked Beilin to send troops to help, which is really unreasonable.

Shen He nodded again and again when he heard this, and the other generals also joined in the opposition when they saw this.

Shen He was about to decide, but he heard Ye Hu suddenly say sonorously: "The last general thinks that Nan'an should be assisted this time, because helping Nan'an is helping me to come north." ”

When all the generals heard this, they all retorted: "Did General Ye also listen to the nonsense of the special envoy of Nan'an, what to take from Jialing Pass to Yongji Pass is really illogical and unreasonable." ”

Seeing this, Ye Hu did not flinch, but continued to say loudly to Shen He: "There is only one reason why the last general feels that he must help, that is, this attack on Jialing Pass, the main commander who leads the troops will be Chu Yujin, the fifth son of the king of Dongyi. ”

"This Chu Yujin's identity is not simple, he is actually the same person as Su Changfeng, the master of the Acacia Gate, this person is far better than his father and brother in terms of ability and resourcefulness, and his ambition is even greater, if we don't interfere this time, let him sit big, and let this person have the opportunity to take charge of Dongyi Country in the future, it will be the biggest hidden danger in my northern country."

Shen Changge listened to Ye Hu's analysis, and he also felt very reasonable, nodded again and again, and then thought of Qing Xuan's death, and the hatred in his heart was unsettled.

So he echoed Ye Hu and said: "The last general also has an understanding of this person, it is true that this person has multiple identities, he has a very high status in the Dongyi court and the rivers and lakes, and he has a lot of capable people, if he is not eliminated when he is weak, I am afraid that the generals of the border pass in the north will not be able to sleep and eat in the future." ”

After listening to his analysis, some generals also felt reasonable, so they began to agree.

Shen He finally promised to write the matter into a song and leave it to the king of Beilin to decide in person.

Dongyi, Jialing Pass

Zhu Zhaogao, the commander of the three armies of Dongyi State, rode a war horse and placed it in front of the three armies, next to Chu Yujin sat on the chariot, and the main generals of all walks of life were lined up behind him, headed by Gao Yuming.

At this time, two generals who had good words rode horses under Jialing Pass to call for battle, and the two of them were singing and harmonizing.

"Yu Fei Xiao'er, if you don't surrender yet, why did our army just try your knife yesterday, and scared you into a turtle with a shrunken head, and you didn't dare to go out of the pass to fight, I think where did you take advantage of the fatigue of our army and Beilin to attack my Jialing Pass?"

Another general laughed loudly: "I heard that General Yu has just married the sixteenth concubine, I'm afraid that after staying in the country for a long time, I will naturally learn the way of women twisting and pinching, we have to shout a few more times, otherwise General Yu will be embarrassed to come out."

After speaking, the Dongyi generals laughed one after another, and the laughter shook the sky!
