Revisiting the old place has always been easy to make people feel emotional, and this truth is naturally effective for Yan Xu, who is now less than forty and has always considered himself to be in the prime of life. Walking on the streets of the capital of Beiyan, he had been here as the deputy envoy of the Great Wu Mission, and he looked around, and all he saw was devastation, and he couldn't help but jump out with emotion.

"Therefore, even a mediocre emperor is better than a madman...... Of course, what is more unlucky than a madman is to meet a group of madmen! ”

Hearing Yan Xu's words, several young people behind him couldn't help but look at each other. Although most people can't help but don't answer, there are still people who can't help it. For example, the little monkey whose personality is difficult to change and jump out of the country can't help but shout: "General Yan is right, Beiyan is because there are too many crazy people, and this will become what it is now!" I want to go to the capital to be so prosperous......"

"It's better to leave this topic at that!" The person who poured cold water was Qing Fengnian, who was half younger than Yan Xu, but his personality was more calm than that real adult. After glaring at the little monkey as if admonishing, he immediately whispered, "General Yan, after all, we entered Shangjing under the banner of Senior Brother Zhen, if people know that we are from Great Wu, Senior Brother Zhen's side will be under great pressure!" ”

"Senior Brother Qing, you're too careful!"

As a junior brother, Mu Ran couldn't help but muttered in a low voice: "Who doesn't know that behind Senior Brother Zhen is Da Wu, he flew to the capital with his own danger this time, and if he didn't bring us here, just with his desperate rides, it wouldn't be enough!" Besides, his base camp can't do without those elites, and there aren't many people who come out with him...... Anyway, even if we don't shout, others will know. ”

"That's it!" The little monkey grinned and agreed, "It's not like we haven't been here before, maybe there are still people who know General Yan and you and me!" It's a pity that Brother Yue Jiu didn't come......"

Yan Xu listened to these young people, and he couldn't help but sigh a little. Yue Qianqiu didn't come, it was because of his tough request, because he really didn't want any more accidents for his big disciple, who had already become the head of the sect!

Just when Yue Qianqiu went to Beiyan with him before, and escorted Xiao Jingxian back to Beiyan, he would fall into weird big trouble if he didn't pay attention to anyone, where did he want to try that shocking him to the point of almost cardiac arrest.

And when he just entered the city, it was a desperate fight, and he was actually sweating for the teenagers behind him. These are all the elites of the Wuying Pavilion, the hope for the future of each sect, not to mention the loss, even if he hurts anywhere, he will not be able to escape the blame. So he didn't plan to take these little guys, he only planned to charge into battle with the subordinates of the Xuanlong Division, who would have thought that people would be directly stuffed by an imperial order.

And came together, as well as the little monkey sent Yue Qianqiu's family letter, the message on the top completely made him have to accept these people - Yue Qianqiu's reason is very organized, the young people have already said that the elders of their own sect have moved the elders, thinking that jade is not cut, and the border soldiers also have parents and families, why can people take risks, they can't?

Without passable merits, there are still not many people in the various sects who can stand on top of the court in a dignified manner, and they are still easy to be bullied by some clear streams who can only talk cannons, and if they don't take advantage of the upcoming war to destroy the country and come out to make meritorious contributions, is it possible that they are still eating at home and waiting for death?

Seeing that Qing Fengnian was told by a few people, you and I simply shut up and stopped talking, Yan Xu coughed dryly and said, "Okay, okay, Qing Fengnian is right." Now that Zhen Rong has officially entered Shangjing, recruited a Ping An Army, and cleaned up a group of corrupt moths in the city defense army, after raiding the house, he knocked on the doors of the people's houses door to door, counted and returned their looted property, which can be regarded as saving a little people's hearts. ”

"But that's just the beginning! Only one more day on the Beijing side will make the whole plan more likely to succeed. Why did the princess of Chang'an rely on less than 10,000 city defense troops to occupy Shangjing? Isn't it because others are jealous that they didn't come to fight for this central place? Now that Zhen Rong comes, others will definitely not sit idly by. ”

"You have the strength to fight your mouth, you might as well save some strength and prepare to go back and work hard!"

Yan Xu thought that these words would definitely make these little guys like wilted dishes, but he miscalculated the situation. Because I only saw a few people, you looked at me for a while, and finally responded in unison: "General Yan, don't worry!" ”

was smashed head-on by such five words, Yan Xu could only touch his nose helplessly, thinking that he didn't have to worry about Yue Qianqiu's safety, but there were more people to take care of. There are no eyes on the battlefield, and it is difficult for him to ensure his safety, let alone these teenagers? He glanced at the young and vivid faces, and his tone gradually became serious.

"You all have to think about it, young people, you can't help but want to be heroes, but there are not so many heroes between life and death, and sometimes you can only choose whether to fight the knife or be shot by an arrow...... At this time, it is still too late to retreat, and in the next few days, I can't guarantee what will happen, let alone me, and all of you, will survive one by one. That's why I was adamant not to take it before. So, I don't want you to go back and complain that I didn't take Qianqiu but took you, and as a result, I killed someone! ”

Faced with such an undisguised truth, Qing Fengnian couldn't help but smile. He was the eldest among the people, and at this time, he stepped forward on behalf of everyone, and said with a sincere face: "General Yan, all of us came this time, not only to contribute to the country, to Guangmen faction, and to make meritorious contributions, but more importantly, everyone can trust you and hope to be able to help you." You don't allow the Ninth Prince to come, so the Ninth Prince can only ask us. Therefore, life and death are fate, even if we really die here, that is our choice! ”

"Phew!" Yan Xu snorted a few times in a row with some annoyance, but he couldn't help but feel a little hot in his heart, but his face was stiff, "You are all married people, what are you talking about, I don't want to turn around and be shot into a hedgehog by that powerful daughter-in-law of your family...... And you're all the same, all of them cheer me up! ”

In the distance, Zhen Rong was wearing an ordinary shirt, only bringing two personal soldiers, and his eyes showing a little nostalgia when he looked at this scene. He was sure that Yan Xu had already found himself coming, because as early as when he appeared, people had glanced at him, but they only laughed with the others as if they hadn't noticed, and those who had been his companions didn't notice his arrival at all because they were elated.

From this short distance, even on the street with few pedestrians, he still couldn't hear what they were talking about, but from a distance, he could still roughly guess what they were talking about. Sure enough, when he raised his voice to say hello, and then strode forward, he saw the little monkey hurrying up to meet him.

"Senior Brother Zhen, General Yan almost drove us away just now!" In a natural accusatory tone, the little monkey quickly told the story of what had just happened, and then lowered his voice and said, "How can we slip away just because we are in danger?" When everyone came out, they had already put their personal safety at risk! Besides, no matter how dangerous it is, how dangerous can it be more dangerous than your situation? ”

"Thank you, Senior Brother Hou." Zhen Rong said sincerely, but immediately after that, he saw the little monkey's cheeks bulging high, and he was angry. The next moment, he realized what a mistake he had made, and couldn't help laughing, he actually stretched out his hand and gave the little monkey a hug directly, and patted the other party's back hard.

"I'm really sorry, I'm used to calling you by a nickname, but I forgot that your surname is Yuan, not Hou...... All in all, I am very grateful to all of you for being able to come this time, and we will never leave you! ”

"Senior Brother Zhen, you should say this to the girl you like!" Mu Ran also came over and made a joke at the right time. In an instant, the atmosphere that should have been a little tragic and serious became giggling, not serious, and Yan Xu, who was trying to put on a serious posture, was speechless. But after the entanglement, General Yan also wanted to open it.

Closer to Zhu is red, close to ink is black, he is good, these guys are good, and when they get close to Yue Qianqiu, they will all be contaminated with that improper habit, even Zhen Rong is no exception!

Zhen Rong came to Beijing, including Yan Xu and others, and only brought more than 200 people in total, which can be said to be a dangerous move. However, he personally captured the princess of Chang'an's concubine, Yan Xu led people to rush into the capital, and then screened and cleaned the city defense army, recruited the displaced people as the peace army with generous treatment, appeased the households in the capital, counted the military rations, and closed the city gate, but this series of actions was not idle.

At least the fact that he suddenly entered the capital alone shocked several surrounding forces who supported their own troops and established themselves as kings in a cold sweat. In the next few days, the surrounding spheres of influence were intertwined, and the generals or princes who surrounded the capital city exchanged opinions frequently, which can be seen only from the dead horses on both sides of the official road.

In less than twenty days, the two major forces joined forces to send a total of 60,000 troops - although this number is definitely exaggerated, but those who know the know know that the actual number of soldiers and horses dispatched is 40,000.

Therefore, when the other two major forces also sent an army of 60,000 under the banner of exterminating the traitorous king, that is, the ordinary people expressed surprise, and the upper echelons all waited with bated breath for the outcome of this battle.

As for those who are not ambitious, while watching from the wall and waiting for the results of the battle in Beijing, they feel behind their backs that Xiao Rong, the king of Jin, is really too big.

"He occupied such a large piece of territory in three years, and there was money from Nanwu behind him to support people, and he would develop slowly there, and he would go to Beijing with so many people for thousands of miles, did he think he could hold it? On the one hand, someone sent troops to surround Beijing, and on the other hand, someone definitely attacked his lair! ”

However, the people watching the hilarity soon waited for an answer that left them jaw-dropping. wanted to take advantage of Zhen Rong's sneak attack on the soldiers and horses of other people's base camps, it is said that the leader was still a somewhat famous old general in the southern border of Beiyan in the past, but he directly hit the iron wall that others had prepared for a long time.

And it was no one else who was sitting there instead of Zhen Rong, it was the princess of Yue who everyone thought was under house arrest in Nanwu, and maybe everyone had already died of illness silently!

The twelve princesses who personally beheaded seven people and reappeared in the field of vision of countless Northern Yan people did not have the brilliance of the majestic female generals on the battle array at all. On the city wall, she stood there holding on to the battlement, and suddenly asked without looking back, "Hasn't Qianqiu fallen yet?" ”

"Nope." The woman's voice behind her was calm and calm, as if she was talking about someone who didn't matter.

This attitude immediately angered the twelve princesses. She turned her head and shouted angrily: "What is your heart, don't worry that he is messing around outside alone!" ”

"First, he is not alone; Second, he's not messing around. Speaking of this, Zhou Jiyue smiled helplessly, "No, not me, even the senior lady, even if you are worried, you can only stay here helplessly." Moreover, Miss Ling, Miss Feng, and all the girls can only choose to defend the base camp behind this for Qianqiu and Zhen Rong here. ”

"Of course we can go along, but as a woman, there are always inconveniences, how are you going to mix with those homeless people?" Seeing the twelve princesses turning their heads with a disgruntled face, Zhou Jiyue couldn't help but sigh from her heart. Yan Xu and Zhen Rong are at least very clear about their whereabouts now, only Yue Qianqiu doesn't know where they are, how can she not be worried?

Although she had always believed that the guy with a big life would be fine, she couldn't help but worry at this time. The only thing to be thankful for is that Xiao Jingxian, who has put Yue Qianqiu in danger and even desperate situations again and again, is still not healed and has not followed, otherwise, she can't care about the difference between men and women, and she has to follow her!

At this moment, the low voice of the twelfth princess came from her ears: "How many days have you been carrying it over there in the capital?" ”

"Twenty-four days." Zhou Jiyue popped out a number without thinking, and then said in a low voice, "But even if the flying pigeon spreads the book, the news is still lagging behind, it was said that there were many dead and injured before, but at least the people brought by General Yan survived......"

The Twelfth Princess did not ridicule Zhou Jiyue only remembered the classmates of the Wuying Pavilion that Yan Xu brought, and did not mention the deaths and injuries of the Northern Yan soldiers and civilians in the city, she couldn't expect others to really treat the Northern Yan soldiers and civilians equally, after all, even she couldn't do it herself. When she was in Beijing in the past, how could she have a penny of her eyes on those low-level people?

She just raised her eyebrows and said in an extremely flat tone, "Since your name is Mrs. Su, why don't you change your words about General Yan?" ”

Zhou Jiyue didn't expect the twelve princesses to ask such an irrelevant question. She thought about it with some distress, and then smiled bitterly for a while: "Probably because I actually have a master...... Even if he is long gone, I can't change my name to someone else's master. Moreover, if you add a surname called Master Yan, then it is really weird......"

The Twelfth Princess looked at Zhou Jiyue inexplicably, and couldn't help but burst into laughter: "I just asked casually, you are so honest, you can even answer this kind of question!" She was about to continue teasing Zhou Jiyue for two sentences, but then she caught a small commotion. She turned her head to follow the voice, and saw Ling Zhu'er rushing over like a gust of wind.

"Just now the news sent by the flying pigeon messenger, the ninth prince single-handedly persuaded the Northern Yan Shenwu King to surrender!"
