On the side of the carriage, Qu Lang gasped, spit out clouds of white mist, and the stainless steel long sword in his hand was thrown aside, and the sharp blade had a lot of holes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Not far away, Xiong Gang's shoulders were red, he knelt on the ground with his sword, his face was dripping with sweat, and the eyes that looked at Qu Lang were less of the previous disdain, and were replaced by respect that was born at some point.

"Your Excellency is back."

Someone in the crowd shouted, and then everyone looked up, and not far away, Liu Xi was walking slowly.

Xiong Gang shook his body a few times, stood up, and stepped forward to meet him, with weakness in his words, "The last general has seen the adult." ”

Hearing this, Liu Xi understood that this sudden ambush had made him a good thing, not only met his uncle Liu Han's old subordinates, but also convinced this high-spirited Feijia captain.

It is really a blessing and a curse.

Secretly rejoicing, Liu Xi hurriedly helped Xiong Gang up, looking at the blood-stained silk cloth on his shoulder, "General, is your injury important?" ”

After that, she glanced at Wu Shuang'er's broken hem again, Liu Xi naturally recognized where the silk cloth came from, and in order to save people, the little girl was even willing to tear off her favorite undergarment.

As if sensing Liu Xi's gaze, Wu Shuang'er, who was healing the soldiers in his hands, had a red glow on his cheeks inexplicably, turned his head over, and continued to take the pulse and listen to the sound.

Xiong Gang, who bowed his head to this subtlety, didn't see it, and bent down again, and said with a slight embarrassment, "The last general is incompetent, putting the adult in deep danger, and I ask the adult to punish him!" ”

After saying this, Xiong Gang half-knelt on the ground, and the uninjured soldiers on one side all knelt down, and said in unison, "Please punish the adults!" ”

The hard work was boiling inexplicably, and at this time, Liu Xi began to vaguely understand what it was like to be proud of waving tens of millions of troops and swallowing thousands of miles.

It is the subordinate in front of him who surrenders the soldiers, and orders that wherever the arrows go, even if they are crushed to pieces, they must go bravely.

Helping Xiong Gang up again, Liu Xi didn't say a word about Feijia's disrespect to him, but turned around and walked to the side of the soldier who was lying on the ground and couldn't close his eyes anymore.

Stretching out his hand to caress the blood-covered face, Liu Xi sighed deeply, "Punishment? What shall I reproach you for? As a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, what is wrong with you not afraid of life and death and fighting hard to kill the enemy? ”

Closing the eyes of the soldier lying under him, Liu Xi picked up the gravel on his armor, wiped the dust off his armor with his sleeve, and then slowly walked towards a forest in front of the mouth of the valley with him.

"The spring breeze by the lake is green and a few ripples, whose little lady is looking forward to it under the tree? The horse leather shroud does not return, and the iron bones are strong, who knows? ”

His movements were very light, as if he was afraid of waking up the sleeping soldiers, and there was a low chant in his mouth, his voice was bitter, and a few words were easy to understand, but he heard that the flying armor soldiers were all teary-eyed, even Xiong Gang, a man with five big and three thick eyes, also felt very sour in his heart.

Who said that scholars don't know martial arts tears?

Taking a deep breath and holding back the tears, Xiong Gang strode over to another soldier, and like Liu Xi, he gently hugged the brother who had followed him for many years, just like he had carried him to the bed when he was drunk.

He could still wake up drunk, but the feathered arrow in his chest made him never wake up again.

With big red eyes, Xiong Gang's tears that had not fallen for many years could no longer hold back their drops, and behind him, Qu Lang had a cold face, did not speak, and held the pale face of the deceased soldier between his hands.

Seeing this scene, Xiong Gang sniffled, and after a while, he hummed, "From now on, you will be a certain brother." ”

His face was still cold, and Qu Lang nodded, "But there is a warm blood, which can be sprinkled with the sun and the moon." ”

The valley was ambushed, and in this battle, there were still forty and five soldiers left in the flying armor, and twelve horses were lost.

With such things, Liu Xi planned to slow down the trip, but Xiong Gang shook his head and said very sincerely, "The last general understands that the adults sympathize with us and others, but the northern Xinjiang gaffe is urgent, and it really can't be delayed, otherwise there will be chaos, and the court will blame it, and the adults and the last general will be to blame." ”

In this way, how could Liu Xi object, the wounded soldiers of Feijia rode with the unharmed people, and continued to rush to the north day and night.

"Boom, boom, boom......!"

Dozens of war horses galloped by, and the dust was flying, making the earth tremble, and Xu Laohan, who was entering the city on the eve of the heavy snow to sell a few loads of firewood, couldn't help but be stunned.

"Third uncle, where is this soldier, so stylish?"

On the side, the young man who was sitting on the edge of the firewood with a slightly immature face said with envy in his eyes, and before he finished speaking, he was glared at by Xu Laohan, who came back to his senses, "You baby, look at what you are doing, I didn't see that the armor and war horses are much better than the guards in Haozhou City, and there are two carriages behind him, and they are going to the north, needless to say, the imperial court must have sent someone to the north." ”

The young man scratched his head and said with a simple smile, "Third uncle, you know a lot." ”

"Uncle eats more salt than you walk, can you still know this?"

Xu Laohan smiled angrily, picked up the burden and walked towards the city, muttering in a low voice, "Fortunately, I listened to the storyteller outside the tea shop in the city two days ago, this stinky boy is getting harder and harder......

The round-faced young man naturally didn't hear it, wrapped in the shabby cloth jacket on his body, his eyes were still looking at the dusty pipe, and he said to himself with admiration, "What a style......"

Hurrying all the way, where did Liu Xi and the others know what the lonely and nameless young man was thinking, since leaving the valley, they have been walking non-stop for another ten days, and finally not far from Yangqu City.

In the carriage, there are two small charcoal stoves, the further north you go, the colder it gets, Liu Xi can not care, but the girls in the car are always weaker, not to mention that Wu Shuang'er and Qin are still cultivating, and their foundations are not strong, and they are extremely uncomfortable with the cold wind in the north.

"My lord, there is Yangqu City ahead!"

In the car, Liu Xi was telling a story with the bored Wu Shuang'er, but suddenly heard Xiong Gang roaring, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but open the car curtain.

It is still an endless sky of loess, the snow has not dispersed, the cold wind is blowing, and in front of the carriage, the outline of a city is faintly visible.

Seeing Yangqu City, everyone immediately laughed, even Liu Xi, there was a little joy in his heart, he had been traveling day and night for more than ten days, and finally arrived, although he didn't know what the city was like, but at least there was no need for this day and night rush.

The tired horse threw off its hooves and ran forward under the twitching leather whip, and Wu Shuang'er in the car had already begun to think about where to play after entering the city, and a pure and immaculate smile bloomed on his thin cheeks again.

"My lord, there is something going on!"

It was Xiong Gang's voice again, hearing this, Liu Xi was shocked, and couldn't help but look over, the city gate that had been washed by wind and rain and faded to vermilion was closed, and under the red brick city wall that became clearer and clearer, there were many figures densely surrounded.

Above the city, there was also a row of armor soldiers, with a cold light in their hands, but the arrow was already on the bowstring.

It's someone attacking the city!
