The battle of Beidi was extremely poor, and he used the surrounding mountains to surround Fengcheng, but he never thought that he would retreat from the army, and it was not easy to retreat. And the reinforcements that came to Daliang will always find the attack when the two armies go out of the camp to fight, if they turn around to attack the reinforcements of Daliang, then the soldiers of Fengcheng will desperately pursue and kill in the rear, and the reinforcements will also rely on the familiar terrain to withdraw their troops at a very fast speed.

When Xiao Yi fought in front of the city for the first time, the Beidi people knew that the people who led the troops in the city changed from Xiao Ce to Xiao Yi, the prestige of the little overlord, the Beidi people all heard of it, and they did not dare to act rashly, so they were attacked before and after, and they did not dare to divide the soldiers into two ways to fight, one could not figure out the number of reinforcements, and the other was to divide half of the troops, and it may not be the opponent of the little overlord, so overnight, under the command of the Beidi general, with grain and grass, retreated to the North Gate Pass that was captured before and stationed, so as not to suffer the enemy in the belly of Fengcheng, and lose the army.

Although the Beidi people had withdrawn their troops, Su Yu went and returned to prevent them, so she called Chang to lead thousands of soldiers, and they were still stationed thirty miles away from Fengcheng, just in case, and she herself took Da Kui Qiao Qi into Fengcheng overnight to meet Xiao Yi.

Entering Fengcheng City, the people along the street were cheering and rejoicing, immersed in the joy of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, Su Yu inquired all the way and went to the direction of the mansion.

When they entered the mansion, it happened that they met Zicheng, who came one step ahead of them, Su Yu looked at it, Zicheng's face was not happy, and his eyes were red, as if there were traces of crying. Led by him to approach the inner house, Su Yu listened to his ears and faintly heard an extremely suppressed cry, and his heart suddenly tightened, thinking if Xiao Yi was injured and in danger?

After thinking about it, Su Yu's heart fell again, Xiao Yi was fine when he led the troops to fight before, if he was injured, the Beidi people would not retreat so simply, so in addition to Xiao Yi, the things that can affect Zicheng's crying should be Xiao Yi's father, General Xiao Ce is not good.

Pushed open the door and entered the house, as Su Yu expected, in the small room, the white tent was in stark contrast to the bright red lanterns hung outside on the New Year, a pitch-black coffin stopped in the house, Xiao Yi was dressed in ink, standing there quietly, not like the cry of the old slave next to him, but silent, without saying a word.

Su Yu knew that the worst result was coming, General Xiao Ce, who had defended his family and defended the country all his life, failed to survive to the age of retirement, and died in the city where the two armies fought.

The two armies fought, Su Yu knew that Xiao Yi understood how great his father Xiao Ce's influence on the soldiers and Beidi people in the city was, so his father Xiao Ce went, Xiao Yi did not protect the spirit for the first time, but immediately blocked all the news, as always, led the troops to practice, and led the troops to meet the battle.

This may be what General Xiao Ce expected before his death, and it is also his Xiao family's son, unique style.

Seeing Su Yu come in, Xiao Yi raised his eyes and glanced at it, his voice was a little hoarse, and he called, "Yu'er." ”

Su Yu stood in front of the coffin for a moment, then knelt down lightly, and bowed a few times, one to bow to her nominal father-in-law, and second, and the most important thing, that is, Su Yu respects the general of the Xiao family, Gao Fengliang, and the righteousness of Bo Yuntian, when the civil strife in Daliang continues, and when people from all walks of life are vying for power and profit, they are dedicated to guarding the stability of Daliang.

After kowtowing to the last head, Su Yu straightened up and affirmed towards the silent coffin: "General, Fengcheng has been secured, and the North Gate Pass is bound to be recaptured, please feel at ease." ”

After saying this, Xiao Yi also pouted, knelt down in front of his father's spirit again, nodded to an old slave beside him, and said in a deep voice: "Fengcheng is safe, hang your filial piety." ”

When these words fell, the old slave said sadly, and shouted, "The sky is high, the sea is wide, the water flows for a long time, the general walks slowly on the road, don't look back, I'll wait for my son to be here, defend the family and defend the country and fight the barbarian slaves, the blood is broken, and the momentum is endless!" ”

The bright red lantern was picked up in front of the high door, and a pale word fell on it, and someone next to him brought two filial piety belts, Su Yu and Xiao Yi reached out and took the bundle on their foreheads, and then kowtowed a few times towards the coffin.

I have never seen any auspicious days of the zodiac, nor have I ever solemnly sung the praises, and the funerals of a generation of famous generals are extremely simple, and even a little sloppy, which is very different from those so-called famous people in Beijing.

As an only son, Xiao Yi is not unfilial, but now that the Beidi people have not been expelled, he has more important things to do, not because of the fame and fortune of high-ranking officials, but because he has a surname of Xiao.

At night, Su Yu knew that although Xiao Yi was still calm and calm, she also deeply understood the pain of losing her loved ones.

Who knew that the wine was in front of him, Xiao Yi only looked at it for a moment, and he didn't move, he only looked at Su Yu deeply and shook his head.

"Drinking alcohol in the face of the enemy is a taboo in the army, and if the North Gate Pass is not recaptured for a day, I must always stay sober."

Sitting next to Xiao Yi, Su Yu patted his chest and said with great certainty: "Isn't there still me?" I can not only help you relieve the siege of Fengcheng, but also help you recapture the North Gate, I am your personal strategist, and I, Su Yusu Daxia, have always been talking counts! ”

Xiao Yi looked at Su Yu's impassioned and comforting appearance, his eyes moved, he lowered his head, and muttered, "Thank you." ”

From the time Su Yu saw him in the mourning hall to the time when his biological father was buried, Su Yu saw Xiao Yi always quiet, silent, his face was waveless, no sadness, no sorrow, no sorrow, the whole person was tall and strong, like the city wall that could not be defeated, the fortress that could not be destroyed, with the sons and soldiers behind him, standing up to the sky and the earth, and being able to hold up a piece of heaven for the people at the border.

And at this time, Fang Cai, although Xiao Yi quickly lowered his head, Su Yu could hear his thank you with some trills, and in the depths of his eyes, there seemed to be something crystal fluctuating, Su Yu, who looked directly, was a little panicked, and felt that the wine in his hand was a little too embarrassing, Xiao Yi is a person who has the overall situation in his heart, unlike her, when the children think of their mother, they always want to drink to relieve their depression, no responsibility, no responsibility.

Thinking of this, Su Yu was sitting on the side a little embarrassed, but when he saw Xiao Yi raise his eyes, his expression returned to a calm expression, only slightly, revealing a little sadness, looking at the darkening sky at night, and said quietly: "Grandfather has always advised me to have a child earlier, but I didn't listen, and now that my father is gone, I found out that my grandfather may be afraid that one day, the general of the Xiao family, I am the only one left, or there is no one surnamed Xiao in the Guan army here." ”

Su Yu listened quietly, and knew in his heart that the Xiao family's deterrent power to Beidi and the people at the border pass pinned all their expectations on the word "Xiao".

"Grandfather's life, got three sons, all of them are young Yinglang, a little older, with him stationed at the border to meet the enemy, but as time slowly passed, my two uncles, were also left in the battlefield when they were young, just when they were in high spirits, but they got a horse leather shroud, all the way, until my grandfather can no longer carry a big sword can not ride a war horse, after returning to Beijing in old age, I still taught my father and I that we must not show cowardice in front of the enemy army and soldiers, because at that time you are the backbone of the entire army.

Now that my father is gone, I am worthy of his and my grandfather's teachings, but I think that if I have children, I only hope that when the country will be rich and the people will be strong, so that he will not suffer all that our ancestors and grandchildren have endured for three generations. ”

Su Yu nodded silently, the four words in his shoes are just words on his lips, others have not come to that point, they must not understand the suffering, ordinary parents only educate their children to get ahead, or they are envious of some people who are born famous generals, but they don't know that what they are carrying is a responsibility that is greater than life and death, and is thicker than flesh and blood.

Su Yu thinks that from childhood to adulthood, she is the most unambitious person, she is just an insignificant little person, if one day she has a child, I also hope that he will grow up simply and steadily.

Don't say things that are so far away, Su Yu doesn't want Xiao Yi to fall into sadness again, he should be the sinister and cunning Xiao Papi, not the sad son who makes her heart soften into a puddle of mud with a little word now.

"That ......, that ......" Su Yu looked up at the sky and changed the subject: "Look at the stars in the sky, how bright!" ”

Xiao Yi raised his head and followed Su Yu's gaze to look over quietly, only to see that in the dark night sky, there were really such faint stars blinking there, but before he could see clearly, he saw a dark cloud drifting by, covering the star tightly.

Su Yu looked at it, retracted his gaze embarrassedly, and saw a lantern under the corridor again, and said to the topic: "Look at that lantern, the workmanship is really good." ”

As soon as the words fell, it was too late in the night, and a gust of wind passed, and the candle in the lantern tried to jump and burn the last tear of the candle, and it was extinguished with a click, and the surroundings suddenly fell into darkness.

Looking at this scene, Su Yu swallowed a mouthful of saliva silently, and didn't dare to speak again, but Xiao Yi suddenly opened his mouth when he heard it, his voice was magnetic and low, and he said with some charm: "Then it's better for us to do something else." ”

Su Yu's old face turned red, "......"
