Chapter 285: Wait for Me to Come Back
Cheng Zhijie and they didn't run far before they were caught up, not because the horses were not good, not because of poor riding skills, but because the terrain was unfamiliar. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoWuyuan is at the northernmost corner of the Yellow River, and after siltation, this section of the Yellow River is completely above-ground river; Breaches often occur, forming large and small lakes in Wuyuan, of which there are 5 places on thousands of acres and more than 100 places on hundreds of acres.
In this way, they did not run far before they were surrounded by enemies from all sides. Cheng Zhijie held Princess Yicheng on his horse, and raised the horse lance in his hand to take the lead in rushing south.
Since he was injured, Cheng Zhijie switched to using a lighter horse lance, although the weapon was changed, but the power was not much different, and no one in front of the Turkic soldiers could stop him; Soon he led his team out of the three blockades.
The dull horn sounded, and the banner of the Tiger Division and the golden wolf flag of Jieli Khan appeared in the distance. "Let's go!" Cheng Zhijie's eyes flashed, and he rushed down with his horse running south.
The team of the Golden Wolf Army came from the south, and when Tereshuo saw Cheng Zhijie running by himself, he grinned and said: "It's also time for me to wait for meritorious service, hurry up with me and intercept which thief!" As he spoke, he led an army of 2,000 and rushed upward.
Seeing that the two armies were about to meet, a member of Shuo Che'er's side suddenly raised his sword and cut him off his horse. Then there was a sudden uprising among the Turkic crowds, and the intercepting team was slaughtered.
Shi Danai killed Shuo Che'er and Cheng Zhijie met and said, "Demon King, what should we do now?" ”
Cheng Zhijie is now covered in blood, and the wound on his left shoulder is aching faintly, and it is estimated that he has been torn again after exerting too much force. "Keep walking! Let's cross the river! Cheng Zhijie gritted his teeth and led the army to the bank of the Yellow River.
Standing on the bank of the Yellow River, Cheng Zhijie was completely dumbfounded, the current Yellow River is neither completely frozen nor turbid. Hanoi is a vast white expanse, and near the banks of the river is a solid layer of ice, and there are huge ice blocks on top of it that have been hit by the river; In the center of the river is slow-moving crushed ice.
"Ling Xun!" Lao Cheng felt bitter in his heart, this is really not the Yellow River's heart is not dead, not to mention those huge ice cubes colliding, no one can support it at this temperature.
It was impossible to cross the river, and Lao Cheng greeted: "Go!" Rush downstream! So saying, they hurried their horses down the embankment. Princess Yicheng said to Lao Cheng: "Zhijie, let me go!" Only then can you leave! ”
"Shut up! I can't die yet! Cheng Zhijie roared angrily, urging the smoke cloud cover to rush towards the enemy's weak place first; The soldiers of the Wind Character Division followed and rushed down.
Yang Zhong raised his hand to block the footsteps of the guards and said: "I have given the princess's holy word, when it is extremely critical and incomprehensible; The guards go to meet Jieli Khan and expose the fact that the horse thieves have robbed and kidnapped the princess! The escort was slightly stunned, looked at the wind character master who was strangled with the enemy, and nodded secretly.
"You said they burned Horin and kidnapped Kedun!" Jieli stared at Yang Zhong coldly. Yang Zhong knew that he couldn't easily believe himself, so he told how rude Ao Jie was, how he attacked Kedun's convoy, and how he was profited by these fishermen.
These words are half-truths and half-falsehoods, and Jieli also knows what kind of virtue this nephew is; I'm afraid it's not his own Kedun that he covets, but this seat!
"This brute! It's clean when it's dead! Jie Li blew his beard and glared, and then said to Yang Zhong: "What do they want when they kidnap Ke Dun?" ”
"Money and livelihood. They asked me to report to the Great Khan that they needed enough money to squander their lives and a way to return to the Central Plains to enjoy the rest of their lives. ”
Jieli Khan sneered: "These people are so wishful thinking, burning my grain and grass, killing my generals, and capturing my Kedun; Still want to extort my belongings? How dare they think! You tell them to let Kedun dismount and surrender, or I will rip off their skins and light the sky lanterns. ”
Yang Zhong was shocked: "Great Khan can't!" Great Khan is not allowed! These people kill people one by one without blinking, they will definitely hurt Her Royal Highness the Princess. ”
"Do you mean to humiliate me?" Jieli stood up violently with a hideous face, and his cangchang pulled out the golden knife and shouted, "This is impossible! No one can threaten me! ”
"The subordinates don't dare, the subordinates just remind the Great Khan to pay attention to the safety of the princess!" Yang Zhong said to Jieli without giving a step.
Seeing that the two of them had already topped the bull, Zhao Deyan, who was with a clear face next to him, said: "Great Khan, don't be angry, it's not impossible to kill these people without hurting Kedun." ”
Jieli was stunned for a moment and said: "What is the national teacher's plan, just talk about it." Zhao Deyan said with a smile: "We can pretend to agree to these people's requests, but we are only responsible for them to get out of Wuyuan safely." Further on, Shuofang and Yunzhong are not within our scope, and we don't have to care about their safety.
However, these places are the territory of Liang Shidu and Liu Wuzhou, and the Khan can order the two to intercept them along the way, and only a few hundred people will definitely not be able to escape; Catching these thieves is not at the disposal of the Khan. ”
Jie Li pondered for a moment and nodded slightly: "The military advisor is reasonable, just do what you say." Yang Zhong, you go to reply to those thieves, and say that I agreed to their request. ”
Yang Zhong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, fortunately, the princess let me follow Zhao Deyan's path, so many treasures were sent over, and finally in exchange for his words, it also saved the princess's life.
At this time, Cheng Zhijie and they were trapped in a small tribe, and after continuous rushing and killing, there were less than 400 left in the original team of 800 people.
Cheng Zhijie was very angry that Princess Yicheng was making decisions and negotiating with Jieli, but seeing her smile that was relieved that she could help herself, all her anger turned into love.
These generals also knew what had happened, and their hearts were full of respect for this ill-fated woman.
"Zhijie, I can only help you get there. How do you know that Jieli is so cunning; He refused to budge anymore. Out of the five plains, there are Shuofang, Beidi, and Yunzhong; It's the territory of Turkic lackeys, so you have to be careful. ”
Cheng Zhijie snorted coldly and said, "Don't worry! In the steppe, the Turkic army of millions is still bleeding from what I killed, and Liu Wuzhou and Liang Shidu are not my opponents. Alright, let's all disperse! We're going back to the Central Plains tomorrow! ”
Everyone agreed, and they all said goodbye, Cheng Zhijie grabbed Princess Yicheng who was about to get up and said: "We will be separated tomorrow, accompany me today!" Princess Yicheng trembled, her legs were weak and she squatted on the felt.
After a night of life and death, the next day Cheng Zhijie took Princess Yicheng and others to see Jieli Khan; At this time, Jieli Khan's face was iron-blue, and where was there still the appearance of the male lord of the grassland.
Cheng Zhijie pretended to be indifferent and said to Jieli: "Great Khan Wan'an, the Eastern Demon King thanks the Great Khan for his generous gift." Jieli's eyes were about to burst into flames, and he shouted angrily: "Thief, you dare to threaten this king, don't let me catch you again, otherwise you will look good." ”
"Khan rest assured, I will never come to this place again, this time there is a beautiful Kedun to save my life, next time I will not have such good luck! Great Khan, let your men get out of the way, I can't wait to go back to the Central Plains to enjoy. ”
Jieli Khan secretly said in his heart: "Let you be proud for a while, and then I will catch you again, so that your life is better than death." ”
"Release!" Jieli waved his hand violently, and the army behind him flashed out a passage one zhang wide and more than ten miles long. Flags fluttered beside the passage, swords and guns were hooky, and the timid did not dare to go over.
Cheng Zhijie laughed, pulled Princess Yicheng with one hand, and rushed over as soon as he urged the war horse; At the front of the queue, two generals, one on the left and one on the right, raised their broadswords and built an arch.
Cheng Zhijie didn't slow down at all, he rushed to front of them, the horse lance in his hand flickered, and he picked off their big knife with two snaps, and then stabbed forward violently.
The two of them were startled, and quickly turned their heads to dodge, but they felt a burning pain in their ears, and the hat on their heads was also picked off by him.
When the two of them touched their hands, their hands were covered with blood, and their left ears were gone. "Humph! Jieli has been released, how dare you stop it? This is a lesson for you, if you dare to be reckless, you will not be forgiven! ”
The two of them were so frightened that they quickly retreated and made way for them; Cheng Zhijie and his subordinates rushed out along this passage.
Jieli watched from behind, his face fluctuated, were they really just horse thieves? He suddenly regretted letting these people go.
Cheng Zhijie and the others left Wuyuan, and found that Jieli really only followed slowly behind and did not surround him, so he let out a long breath.
"Yicheng, wait! I'll be back to pick you up! Cheng Zhijie shook her little hand heavily; It took a long time to slowly let go.
"I'll wait for you!" Princess Yicheng nodded tearfully, then turned her horse's head and slowly left.
Cheng Zhijie watched her drift away from behind, and suddenly opened his throat and shouted: "
When Concubine Ming first came out of the Han Palace, her temples were drooping with tears.
Wandering low Gu Ying has no color, and the king is not self-controlled.
When he returned, he blamed Danqing's hands, and he had a few times in his life;
The origin of the attitude could not be painted, and Mao Yanshou was killed in vain at that time.
Once I go, I know that I will not return, and I pity all the Han palace clothes;
If you want to ask about Senan, only the wild goose flies every year.
The family spread the news thousands of miles, but fortunately, Mo Xiangyi remembered it in the felt city;
You don't see the long door close at hand, Gillian, and there is no frustration in life. ”
Jieli turned his head and asked Zhao Deyan, "What is he shouting?" Zhao Deyan said: "He is talking about the present, through the Ming concubine Wang Zhaojun in the Han Dynasty; Reflecting the current princess of Yicheng, she said that they married outside the Saiwai, missed their hometown, and felt sad. ”
Jieli Khan said with a sigh: "It's also true, Kedun married outside the Saiwai at the age of 14, and he can't communicate with his family, can he not miss it?" When I think about it, I ignore the sorrow of Kedun; I have to compensate him well when I go back this time. ”
