Chapter 222: Decisive Battle of Xining II

Zhong Qinghan led more than 2,600 black crow troops to stand quietly on the street outside the Zhong Mansion, waiting for the servants of the Zhong Mansion to pack up their things and prepare to evacuate.

If it weren't for his father's strong request that he retreat with the people of Zhongfu, Zhong Qinghan's greatest hope would be to stay and live and die with his father. Because she knew that she probably didn't have more than a few months left, and even if she withdrew to a safe place, it didn't mean much.

It's better to stay and let the last time of your life bloom like fireworks.

At present, there are no other family members in Zhongfu except for the fourth brother Zhongqiu and his mother. The huge Zhong Mansion, if you want to send two people away, do you need to use a battle as big as the Crow Army? After all, my father still didn't want to involve himself in this war.

At that moment, Zhong Qinghan had an ominous premonition in his heart, as if his father had done all this to arrange the future. Otherwise, why didn't the eldest brother guard the Yumen Pass and didn't see any help? And my father also sent all the remaining Zhong family troops to Yumen Pass? Isn't my father sure that he can defend Xining City?

She had the heart to catch up and ask, but she was afraid of disobeying the military order. What's more, he has a youngest brother waiting for his protection in Zhongfu, if he acts rashly, it is not a pity for him to die, if something happens to his younger brother Zhongqiu and the incense of the Zhong family is broken, even if he is under Jiuquan, how can he explain to his father?

In addition to the Zhong family, Ziheng also needs to protect him and retreat. Thinking of worshipping heaven and earth with him in the Buddhist hall in the backyard of Zhongfu, even if it was to deal with her father's expediency, her face still couldn't stop being hot. I thought to myself: "If I didn't suffer from the Nine Yin Absolute Vein, it seems to be a good thing to really be able to stay with Ziheng for the rest of my life." ”

Just as she was thinking about it, the Lian Feng beside her pointed to the team approaching in the distance and said, "Miss, you see, it's Su Gongzi and their team." ”

When retreating from Sujiazhuang to Xining City this time, Lian Feng traveled with them all the way, and he was quite familiar with their convoy.

Zhong Qinghan looked up, and sure enough, it was the nurses of Sujiazhuang, she turned her head sideways and said to Lian Feng, "You go in and see how the housekeeper cleaned up?" Let them hurry up, and don't want some things that are inconvenient to carry. In addition, the fourth prince and the fourth lady must send someone to protect them, and they can't let them do anything. ”

Lian Feng nodded and said, "Miss, the slave knows about it, so I'll arrange it." With that, she turned her horse's head and galloped towards the house.

Zhong Qinghan also rode a horse and greeted the approaching team, and when he got closer, he found that he couldn't see Su Ziheng's figure, and asked curiously: "What about your master, why didn't you see him?" ”

The housekeeper Qian Lu hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Miss Zhong, my master said that he had something to do to go to the manufacturing bureau, so let me wait to come and have a round with Miss Zhong first." ”

Zhong Qinghan was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, Ziheng did do this, he cared about the craftsman very much, and now that he had such a good opportunity, he would not let it go.

She nodded and said, "How many people did Ziheng bring over, do you need someone to escort me here?" ”

"If Miss Hui Zhong said, the old man brought a few of Shi Meng and them, about fifty or so guards, saying that there are enough people." As he was talking, a team of two or three hundred people hurriedly came up from behind.

Zhong Qinghan left Qian Lu behind, and came to Su Ziheng on a horse, looking at the huge team, she couldn't help but shake her head and smile bitterly: "Ziheng, you have almost abducted all the craftsmen of the Manufacturing Bureau." ”

Su Ziheng said with a smile: "At this time when the government is in danger, we have the obligation to protect the craftsmen from persecution. ”

Looking at his shameless appearance of being cheap and obedient, Zhong Qinghan was dumbfounded, as if he had seen him for the first time. Banyu opened his mouth and said: "It's not early, let's evacuate quickly, otherwise the longer the time drags on, the smaller the hope of breaking through." ”

The 150,000 Mengyuan army will definitely not only besiege the West City Gate, but will definitely launch an all-out attack. Therefore, Zhong Qinghan wanted to lead the army to break through before the Mengyuan army completed the full encirclement.

Su Ziheng nodded, and arched his hand: "Light Han, I will trouble you to arrange some soldiers to protect these craftsmen later, and you can't give up easily until the last moment." These people are the most important group of people in the future construction of Donghai County. ”

Zhong Qinghan frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Ziheng, do you really plan to take them to Donghai County?" ”

Su Ziheng was surprised: "Isn't this what your father Xiliang Gong requested?" Why, don't you want to go and see your fiefdom? ”

Zhong Qinghan shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't want to go to the fiefdom, it's just that do you know how far it is from Xining City to Donghai County?" It is more than 4,000 miles, and if we relied on it, it would take at least a few months for our huge team to reach it. ”

Su Ziheng said: "A few months is a few months, and it's not that you can't go." I know you should be careful about the expenses on the road, you don't have to worry about this, I will find a way, and I will definitely bring them all to Donghai County safe and sound. ”

Zhong Qinghan's eyes were full of sadness, and he said quietly: "Ziheng, I believe you have the ability to bring them all over." But......" she hesitated for a moment, "I'm afraid I won't make it that time." ”

Su Ziheng was stunned for a moment, then walked up to her, took her cold palm, and comforted: "What kind of stupid thing to say." I promised you that I would cure your Nine Yin Absolute Vein, and I would definitely be able to do it. Could it be that you don't have faith in me? ”

Su Ziheng didn't expect Zhong Qinghan's self-confidence to be so weak, he had been worried about his body, he began to think, after this breakthrough, he must find a way to cure her body first, otherwise without her support, even if he goes to Donghai County, it will be difficult for him to make a difference.

Zhong Qinghan looked at everyone on the left and right looking at him, hurriedly broke free of his hand, and said in a low voice: "There are so many people outside, why are you so rude." ”

Su Ziheng smiled dumbly, withdrew his hands, and strode forward, "Let's go, I'll talk about it when I get out." ”

When they arrived at the gate of Zhong's mansion, Zhong Heyu had already come out, and when he saw Su Ziheng and Zhong Qinghan, he said respectfully: "The old slave has seen Miss and Uncle, and the mansion has been arranged and can leave at any time." ”

"Uncle?"

Suddenly, the eyes of more than a dozen people at the door fell directly on Su Ziheng, especially Zhao Wan'er, Zhang Wanqing, Lianfeng and others, their faces were full of astonishment, I don't know how Su Ziheng became the uncle of Zhongfu in only half a day.

Xi'er was even more indignant and said to Zhao Wan'er: "Miss, what's going on?" Why did my uncle get involved with Miss Zhong again? ”

Zhao Wan'er felt a sense of loss in her heart, but her face pretended to be nothing, "How do I know, haven't I been with you all the time." ”

With so many people looking at him strangely, Su Ziheng only felt embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "This matter is a long story, now the time is pressing, it is inconvenient to talk about it in detail, and I will explain it to you in detail after breaking out." Let's withdraw for now. ”

As soon as everyone heard this, they nodded and agreed, beckoning the team to prepare to leave.

Suddenly, Zhang Wanqing exclaimed: "Uncle, Miss Ji Xiaohan is gone!" ”
