After Zhiqi finished speaking, he paused and said: "Childe has never been on the battlefield, he doesn't know the cruelty of war, he only looks at the scenery in front of people, and he doesn't know the hardships behind it, these are not what you sons can imagine." After speaking, Zhiqi and Zhiqin turned around and left.

Only Xie Wenjun stayed there, with a gloomy face, was I really wrong?

As soon as Mao Lingfeng returned to the camp, Zhishu and Zhihua hurriedly greeted him, "Miss." ”

Mao Lingfeng waved his hand, let's all go out! After saying that, he threw himself on the bed and pulled the quilt over his head. ”

Knowing books and paintings, they looked at each other and retreated silently. After a while, there was a low cry in the room. Zhiqin and Zhiqi walked to the door of the room and heard the young lady's sad cry, and the four of them couldn't help but feel like knives.

The next day, when he got up in the morning, Mao Lingfeng went to Kunshan City to discuss with General Sun Lao about recruiting new soldiers. For several days, he did not return to the barracks in Kunshan City.

Xie Wenjun has not seen anyone for several days since he saw Mao Lingfeng that night. Xie Wenjun came to the Feifeng Camp and saw the soldiers training as usual. In his heart, he was not in a good mood, and in the past few days he has been with the soldiers in the barracks, and he has learned a lot of things that he can't imagine. Looking at the ardent and respectful gazes of the sergeants, and the adoring looks, I finally knew that I knew too little about her. Zhiqi was not wrong at all, it was himself who was wrong, he simply stabbed her in the heart with a knife, which hurt her heart a lot. Xie Wenjun couldn't wait to slap himself in the mouth.

Xie Wenjun stayed in the barracks for a few days, and finally waited for Mao Lingfeng to return to the camp, and immediately went to the camp tent, where he saw Mao Lingfeng burying his head in dealing with a bunch of military affairs. Xie Wenjun stood silently aside, poured a glass of water and handed it to her: "Drink saliva first." ”

Mao Lingfeng took a breath and drank it without raising his head, "Why are you still here, and you haven't returned to Beijing yet." ”

Xie Wenjun looked at her tired face and said with a guilty face, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said something like that." ”

"It's nothing, you're right, I'm sorry for you, you should go back to Beijing, don't waste time here." Mao Lingfeng said calmly on the surface.

Xie Wenjun hurriedly said, "You want to drive me away." ”

"It's not that you will be driven away, but you must go back to Beijing to restore your life, and a war will soon start here, you can't be here." Mao Ling didn't raise his head and said.

Xie Wenjun was silent, "Okay, tomorrow we will leave for Beijing, you have to take care of yourself and pay attention to your body." ”

"yes, I know." Mao Lingfeng replied and stopped talking.

Xie Wenjun looked at Mao Lingfeng, who was bowing his head to deal with official business, and couldn't help but walk over, snatched the brush from Mao Lingfeng's hand, and put it aside. said urgently: "Feng'er," we can't be husband and wife, we can always be friends!" I'll go back to Beijing tomorrow, and I won't come here again, so you can't accompany me. After speaking, he stretched out his hands to hold Mao Lingfeng's lowered head, only to see that her eyes were full of tears, and she couldn't help but feel a great pain in her heart. Bow your head and kiss the little face full of tears, and gently kiss the tears on your face. Plug the cherry red lips all the way down.

Mao Lingfeng's body stiffened, but he didn't refuse, closed his eyes and let his tongue stick into his small mouth, stretched out his hands to wrap around his neck, and responded gently. I thought it would be the last good memory for myself! Indulge yourself once.

Xie Wenjun's breathing gradually became heavy, his heart beat faster, his hands couldn't help but move down, trembling to untie Mao Lingfeng's clothes. However, a pair of gentle little hands grasped his big hands tightly, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move for half a minute.

Mao Lingfeng gently pushed him away, stood up, and combed his messy hair. He said softly: "Wen Jun, I'm sorry, this is my bottom line, my body, only my husband can touch it." And we have no part in it, so we can only stop there. Although I don't know what will happen in the future, whether I will have a life to get married, but this bottom line cannot be crossed. After speaking, he still sat down to deal with official business.

Xie Wenjun said in a low voice: "I'll help you, will you accompany me for the last afternoon after you deal with it?" ”

Mao Lingfeng looked at his begging gaze and nodded slightly.

Xie Wenjun is now serving in the Ministry of War, and he is very familiar with handling military affairs, and the two of them quickly finished their official duties after lunch.

Xie Wenjun couldn't wait to pull Mao Lingfeng out of the camp tent, and the two of them rode horses and galloped to a hillside in the Yuanjun camp, and the two sat on the ground, and the two seemed to go back to when they first met, and they had nothing to say. As the conversation between the two deepened.

Mao Lingfeng told him about the things in the barracks, his brows furrowed, he was very worried about the future battle situation, the traitor was not found, and he didn't know how to fight this battle.

Xie Wenjun realized how stupid he was, there are many things that must not be what they see on the surface, sometimes people choose not to be willing, and his own accusations are simply to stop sprinkling salt on her wounds, how much it hurts her. couldn't help feeling distressed, gently took Mao Lingfeng in his arms, and said, "Feng'er, I'm sorry." ”

Mao Lingfeng didn't push it away, leaned on Xie Wenjun's chest and said faintly: "Wenjun, do you know? People sometimes choose not to be by themselves, we are destined to have no fate, and we will be a confidant and friend in the future! Stop blaming me. Do you know? Your accusations and complaints are like a sharp knife piercing my heart one by one, stabbing me bloody, making me unbearable, and I dare not face it.

Hearing Mao Lingfeng say this, Xie Wenjun regretted it even more in his heart, only to realize that the pain in her heart was more bitter and painful than herself. He hugged Mao Lingfeng tightly and said, "Feng'er, it's all my fault, I only care about my inner thoughts, and I never put myself in your shoes." In the future, we will be good friends, best friends, and after returning to Beijing, I will secretly help you find clues about the traitor, and look for evidence of the collusion between Prince Ning and Prince Tai to foreign Yi.

Mao Lingfeng raised his head and said softly: "Thank you, Wenjun, you can understand and respect my choice, thank you for helping me." ”

Xie Wenjun lowered his head and kissed her lightly on the forehead, "Feng'er, don't say it anymore, it is my fate to meet you, and I lost you because I don't love you enough." If the love is deeper, and the love can abandon the family responsibility for her, and follow her by her side regardless of it, will she still push herself away? Xie Wenjun believes that Mao Lingfeng will definitely not, since he can't do this, what right do he have to blame her! Let's be our best friends! ”

After speaking, the two were speechless, only feeling that the years were quiet, and they sat and watched the sunset. Mao Lingfeng got up: "It's not early, let's go back to the barracks!" ”

Xie Wenjun nodded: "Okay!" Reluctantly stood up and walked down the hill hand in hand with Mao Lingfeng. Along the way, the two men slowly returned to the camp.

Three people standing on another hillside from a distance watched as the two walked hand in hand.

Tian Yuan looked at the two of them stupidly, and said with envy, "If the general has half of Xie Wenjun's heart for me, I am willing to go up to Daoshan and go down to the sea of fire." ”

Zheng Jie glanced at him, don't be delusional, the general only has Xie Wenjun in his heart, you see that she is only sad and painful for him, and smiles for him, her heart is full of Xie Wenjun, how can she smile at us. And how can he take a second look at us?

After speaking, the three of them looked at each other and smiled bitterly and quietly returned to the camp.

The next morning, Xie Wenjun said goodbye to Mao Lingfeng, and he didn't know where to start with a thousand words, the two of them held hands and were relatively speechless, and after a long time, they took care and spit out from Xie Wenjun's mouth. Let go of the hand that was holding Mao Lingfeng tightly, turn over and gallop away on the horse. Mao Lingfeng silently led the horse to stand in the Kunshan City Tower, watching Xie Wenjun and his party go farther and farther, and his heart was gloomy, this time apart, I don't know when I will see you again, I am afraid that it is a matter of right or wrong, everything is rested, and speechless tears are left first. Mao Lingfeng could only hide his love deep in his heart and turned around and went back to the camp. Prepare for the next war.

She summoned all the soldiers above the fifth rank to the barracks to discuss matters. This is the first time she has summoned so many generals for deliberations since she set out on the expedition. The generals received orders to gather together in the Great Tent.

Mao Lingfeng looked at the generals and said in a deep voice: Generals, the Xiyi reinforcements have arrived in Jiaoqi County, less than three hundred miles away from Yangguan, I want to hear everyone's thoughts, how do you think this battle should be fought. Everyone said a word, I said it one by one, and after talking for a long time, I couldn't tell the idea. At this time, Chang Wu stood up and arched his hand: "If you don't have the general's order, the general will fight as much as he says." All the generals under the tent echoed in unison, asking the general to give an order, and the last general obeyed the order.

Mao Lingfeng's eyes flickered, staring at Chang Wu and Zheng Jie and asked: May I ask the generals who are important to the country and private interests. The generals shouted in unison: "State affairs first, private affairs second, please give the general an order." ”

Mao Lingfeng was silent and ordered all the soldiers to retreat, leaving only Chang Wu and Zheng Jie Tian Yuan. After thinking about it for a while, Mao Lingfeng slowly said: I only left three generals, presumably the three generals also know why, I just want to ask you one word, please answer truthfully. The three of them stood up and clasped their fists and saluted: "General, please speak, if you don't do what you say, you will never lie to yourself." ”

Mao Lingfeng's voice was cold: "I know that you may be working for another person behind your back, but I want to ask you to put the people of your family and country first and unite with the outside world." Of course, I can also get rid of you secretly, but I didn't do that, it is not easy for a person to get to this position now, because he is from an ordinary family, he has to pay a hundred times and a thousand times more effort than others, I don't want you to become a pawn for others to do for their own selfish desires, regardless of the life and death of the people. After speaking, he swept Chang Wu and Zheng Jie's eyes, with a solemn expression.

The three of them knelt on the ground in unison, we only listened to the general's orders, only the general obeyed, and there was no second heart.

Mao Lingfeng was silent for a long time: "It's not that I can't believe you, but in this operation, as long as one of you has a different heart, I will never recover, can I entrust my life and the safety of the country to you?"

The three of them were shocked, and swore in unison: "Swear to follow the general to the death, and only listen to the general's orders, if you violate this oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed." ”

Mao Lingfeng helped the three of them up and said, "In that case, please do what the general commands me." They arranged it for each other, and after speaking, they gave each of them a note. The three of them were ordered to go out of the account together.

Mao Lingfeng looked at the figures of the three of them, and said silently, I hope you don't let me down.

That night, Mao Lingfeng took advantage of the night to quietly leave the camp with eight thousand Feifeng camp brothers and gallop towards Yangguan. Not long after Mao Lingfeng left.

There was a quarrel in Chang Wu's camp tent, and soon Chang Wu was seen carrying a person out of the camp with a calm face. The people who were watching in the shadows quietly departed.

In the early morning of the third day, the fog was thick, and Mao Lingfeng quietly approached Yangguan with the eight thousand Feifeng Camp brothers. Mao Lingfeng came to a hill slightly higher than the city wall, and through the thick fog, he vaguely saw the dangerous place of Yangguan City. She instructed Zhiqin and Dark San to follow her quietly to the outside of the city wall, Mao Lingfeng nodded, and Dark San stood on the edge of the city wall, crossed his hands and ten fingers, tied up his horse steps, and put them in front.

Mao Lingfeng nodded, took a few steps back, rushed sharply, and put his feet in the hands of the dark three, and the dark three exerted his strength and sent it upward. Mao Lingfeng volleyed up in the air, straight to the city wall, when she was still a few feet away from the city wall, she used her right hand to force, inserted the sword into the city wall, slammed down with her right hand, and her body flew up in the air again. Standing firmly on the city wall, Mao Lingfeng untied the rope on his body and tied it down.

After a while, Dark San and Zhiqin were pulled up the city wall one after another. Mao Lingfeng pulled out his strong bow and shot an arrow steadily at the top of the mountain, with a thin rope tied behind the tail of the arrow. Dark Four and Zhiqin immediately untied the string, tied a thick hemp rope to the string, and shook it lightly a few times.

Dark San and Zhiqin hurriedly twitched the string until the thick hemp rope was untied and tied to the city wall and stomped on it. Dark Three shook the rope, and Dark Four was the first to slide on the rope to the city wall. The other soldiers also slid onto the walls one after the other.
