On the vast land of more than 300 miles at the eastern foot of Helan Mountain, twilight is like a thin veil, falling gently from the eastern sky. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

There is a touch of sunset outside the western sky that is particularly enchanting, like a beautiful dream haunting people's hearts, out of reach.

In Huaiyuan County, which is a hundred miles of fertile fields, there is an inconspicuous village, lonely in the sunset.

The splendid mountains and rivers are 10,000 miles, and the smoke curls up.

The world is too peaceful and few are displaced, because I see someone guarding the door.

- None of this has anything to do with this ordinary village.

At the head of the village there is a huge bonfire, in front of an old tree that is as green as a canopy, scorching the quiet twilight of late summer.

Twenty or so horsemen were scattered around the campfire, some guarded around, and more were holding sabers and shouting, and the horses slowly turned around.

The flickering flames reflected the blood stains on the ground and the mud soaked the soil, and also took away all the years of a person, and the corpse lying on the ground was lifeless, only the widening eyes were telling of unwillingness and anger.

Someone was crying, and the cry was the most heart-wrenching sound in the twilight. The voice was so sad and desperate that it was heart-rending enough to describe what happened. The twilight makes people sad, and the cry in the twilight makes people break their hearts and intestines.

Surrounded by the trunk of an old tree, three young women in their teens were tied, their long messy hair sticking to their faces with tears and sweat, and mud and blood sticking to their linen shirts and floral skirts, they struggled hard, but they could not get close to their dead relatives.

Several party members laughed, brandished bloody sabers, admired the tragic results on the ground, and from time to time stretched out their hands to tease the three little ladies who were about to cry.

Huaiyuan County, is the southern three counties in the eastern foothills of Helan Mountain, the closest to the first line of Dingyuan City in the north, the battle in Dingyuan City lasted for more than 40 days, and it is not uncommon for large and small groups of Dingyan army and horse army to infiltrate south. Burning, killing and looting is the specialty of the people of the horse, and they are not afraid of their own death, but also despise the lives of others.

Huaiyuan County and the two counties of Jingjing and Lingwu in the south of it had ordered as early as a month ago to gather people from all over the country to take refuge in the county seat, but there were always some people who cared about a few humble rooms and three acres of thin fields, and they did not leave so simply and in time.

There are several brackets in front of the bonfire, on which the pigs and sheep snatched from the village are roasted, and the party member sitting in the middle is a centurion, who is ugly and full of scum, after eating and drinking, he wiped a mouthful of greasy with his mouth, glanced at the western sky, and saw that the sunset had fallen on the other side of Helan Mountain, and the twilight became more and more gloomy, so he stood up and walked towards the three little ladies who were tied.

The centurion bowed his head and circled around the old tree, and finally stopped in front of the most delicate little lady, and when he untied his belt with both hands, the heat and greed in his eyes were like magma.

The rest of the party kept an eye on the centurion, so that when he was done, he rushed to the top and enjoyed the delicious meal in front of him.

The earth shrouded in twilight was already a blue and black color, and all the party members were waiting for the last feast of the carnival. They were too anxious and careless, and they didn't meet a single Shuofang army for half a day, so they thought that no one would come to disturb their Yaxing, but they didn't know that the night would always dance with the killing machine.

When the sharp arrow pierced through the twilight and pierced through the vests of several party members on the periphery, the terrible screams were so inappropriate, and the iron-blooded soldiers who had trampled on the years had already grasped the cold blades and rushed out from all sides.

In the midst of the howling and exclamations, the party members were in a mess, and the centurion's pants had just been taken off, and before he could raise his gun into battle, suddenly, a young Shuofang soldier with blood in armor jumped on a mound not far away, drew his bow like a full moon, and shot an arrow, hitting the centurion in the throat.

The sound of the centurion's throat was no longer a sneer, but a dying struggle, and he fell to his knees weakly, in front of the corpses on the ground, in front of three women whose eyes were full of surprise, joy and sorrow, and gradually fell silent.

More than 20 party members either wanted to fight back, or wanted to get on their horses and flee, but under the siege of the elite army of more than 100 Shuo Fang, who had suffered from blood and fire, all of them were in different places.

I don't know which party member knocked over the bonfire, and the body was charred in the fire.

Chai Kehong looked at the corpses of the people all over the ground, his anger was like an earthworm, crawling all over his face, Wu Chun, who was holding a bow and arrow, came over and reported to him: "There are no thieves in the village and outside the village. ”

Chai Kehong looked at the three little ladies who were crying bitterly on the dead corpses, gritted his teeth, "Take them away!" ”

When he broke through from Dingyuan City, Chai Kehong still had two hundred people behind him, and now he finally got rid of the Dingyan Army's pursuers and entered the boundary of Huaiyuan County, and only two-thirds of the two hundred people were left, and he couldn't stay here for more, and the large number of pursuers of the Dingyan Army was likely to follow.

......

When Wu Sheng woke up again, the first thing that caught his eye was the vast blue sky and white clouds, although the sun was not in the head, he still felt dazzling, he moved manually, there was nothing on both sides, he quickly realized that he was lying on a stretcher, which made him happy, no longer tied behind Wu Chun's back and galloped on horseback, which showed that they had entered a safe area, struggling to raise their upper bodies, and they were familiar Shuofang soldiers, most of them rode horses. The joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe was not enough for him to call out Wu Chun's name, and there were bursts of stinging pain from the wounds around his body, which made him gasp.

"Are you awake? Great, you're awake! ”

There was a joyful voice in his ears, as crisp as a yellow bird on a branch, with a little excitement, Wu Sheng was puzzled, it was clearly a voice that only a little lady would have, when was there a little lady in the team? He turned his head to look, and saw a small face that was haggard and slightly messy with messy hair, but delicate and lovely, Wu Sheng had never seen Jiangnan Chunshui, but this delicate face with big eyes, small nose and small mouth could only be compared to Jiangnan Chunshui.

The little lady's exclamation attracted Wu Chun, and his resolute face, which was getting thinner and thinner, but his eyes were becoming more and more energetic, appeared in Wu Sheng's field of vision, full of joy, "Good boy, I thought you couldn't survive, good!" ”

Wu Sheng wrapped a large circle of cloth around his head, and smiled reluctantly when he heard this, "Where am I?" ”

"It's at the boundary of Lingwu County." Wu Chun said as he walked beside the stretcher, and the two expressions of sadness and joy were entangled on his face, making him look like a vicissitudes of life, "The thief army has reached Huaiyuan County, and the soldiers and horses of the three southern counties have moved, Huaiyuan, Quiet, and Lingwu are just like Dingyuan, Chonggang, and Xinbao, and the three cities invoke each other to resist the thief army for a while." ”

Wu Sheng was silent, although he was born as a scholar, and he was very concerned about the general trend on weekdays, but in the end he was just a pawn, and his knowledge was limited, Wu Chun knew what he was thinking, so he continued: "Listen to General Chai said that the defense line of more than 300 miles at the eastern foot of Helan Mountain, the three cities of Dingyuan in the north, and the three counties of Lingwu in the south, now that the three cities of Dingyuan have been broken, the army will next strive to defend the three counties in the south. If the south is lost, not only will General Gao Xiansi, who is fighting against the Hexi thief army in the southwest, suffer from the enemy, but Lingzhou will also be completely exposed to the threat of the thief army, and if the barrier at the eastern foot of Helan Mountain is lost, the thief army will be able to march into Lingzhou from the west, north, and east, and attack together, and Lingzhou will be difficult to defend. ”

Wu Sheng asked, "Can General Gao hold the southwest?" ”

Wu Chun pondered and said: "Lingzhou border defense, defend the west but not the east, the defense line of Dingyuan City is set up by Helan Mountain, the reason why the rout is so fast this time, in the final analysis, is that the thief army came from the east, and our army was avoided from the real and empty." The southwest is different, General Gao relies on a complete border defense line, and he himself is extremely good at defending, and it is not so simple for the Hexi thief army to break through the pass and enter. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Chun couldn't help but smile bitterly: "But how long the three counties of Lingwu can be guarded, it is really unpredictable. ”

The two talked for a while, Wu Chun saw that Wu Sheng's face was not too good, and he didn't plan to say too much, so he told him to rest for a long time, "The battle in Dingyuan City is fierce, and there are no more than one out of ten soldiers. ”

This is the proper meaning of the question, the soldiers of Dingyuan City have experienced a tragic battle, and the casualties can not be described as heavy, the more than 100 people in front of them have finally picked up a life, their task has been completed, this time it is impossible to help defend the three counties of Lingwu, if so, is it not to everyone die in battle before they give up? It is not the same statement that Ci is not in charge of the army, and the lieutenant general will not give such a ruthless and unreasonable military order.

After Wu Chun got back on the horse, Wu Sheng saw that the handsome little lady who had spoken out before was still accompanying her on the stretcher, slightly bowing her head and pursing her lips, although her long hair was messy, she was also very good-looking, not to mention her beautiful appearance, she could only be regarded as middle-class, but it was enough to attract a young man like Wu Sheng.

When the little lady saw Wu Sheng coming over, she didn't wait for Wu Sheng to ask, and hurriedly explained: "It was the general who asked the slave to take care of Lang Jun all the way...... and spoke quickly, as if someone was chasing after her, and before she finished speaking, she was already blushing.

Wu Sheng is a scholar in the end, and he has seen some of the world, no little lady is nervous and cramped, but it is not much better, his tongue moved for a while, and he only held back one sentence: "Thank you, little lady...... What is the name of the little lady? ”

"Just call Nu Yuniang."

"Hmm...... Where is the little lady from? ”

"Home in Lingwu County, Grandpa is Langzhong, there is a pharmacy, now is the time to collect medicinal materials, Grandpa suddenly fell ill, the slave only then dared to go to Huaiyuan County with a villager to collect medicine, unexpectedly encountered this disaster...... Fortunately, General Lai rescued ......"

“...... I didn't do anything. ”

"That's the same, the slave is grateful to the general!"

“...... Don't call me a general, I'm just a pawn. ”

"Oh......"

Although the conversation is not too novel, and even a little embarrassing, but it is good to talk, the women in the border area are more heroic, not too shy, and the current is a common hardship, after opening such a head, the two gradually became familiar, the distance was a lot closer, and there was more talk, but Yu Niang took care of Wu Sheng's injury, and told him to rest better, and did not talk too much with him.

Wu Sheng originally thought that he could return to Lingzhou safely, but after resting overnight in Lingwu County, he received an urgent military information, and Wu Sheng's return to Lingzhou became a luxury. In order to conquer the three counties of Lingwu as soon as possible and complete the task assigned by Shi Jingjiao, he gave full play to the advantage of the large number of cavalry, and sent the elite horse army to the south along the river quickly, outflanking Lingwu County, preparing to stew Huaiyuan, Jingjing, and Lingwu in a pot, especially along the Yellow River in Lingwu, and laid heavy troops in order to intercept Lingzhou reinforcements - in this way, Wu Sheng and others crossed the river east to return to Lingzhou, which is also truncated.

......

At the time of the Great War, the situation was changing rapidly, and there was no insurmountable gap between the front and the rear.

For Wu Sheng, it is difficult to return to the countryside.

The good thing is that not everything is bad. For example, Huaiyuan, quiet, Lingwu three counties in the preparation for the war, do enough to do enough, the people of the city has been fully launched, for the battle to defend the land to contribute to the force, different from the Central Plains, a smell of the war, often run the family, Shuo is located in the border, is in the so-called Chengping season, there is no lack of small groups of thieves to commit the border, coupled with climatic factors, the living conditions are bad, the people in the border area are strong, impassioned, and there is no fear of war in the Central Plains, thieves into the Kou, but where the defenders dare to fight, most of the people in the border areas dare to be thieves with the defenders.

With the passage of time, the war unfolded in the three triangular counties of Huaiyuan, Tranquility and Lingwu, and the large and small battles were combined with the offensive and defensive battles of the city, and the southern part of the 300-mile flat land at the eastern foot of Helan Mountain officially entered the state of beacon fire.

And all this, the relationship with Wu Sheng is not too big at the moment.

Waking up early in the morning, Wu Sheng looked at the beam of the room on the couch with his eyes open, because he couldn't stay yet, he witnessed how a fly hit the cobweb, and then the spider crawled over to enjoy the whole process in the morning sun, just when he couldn't help but worry that the spider was not big or small, it would fall on his couch, the door was pushed open with a creak, and the light immediately dispelled all the darkness together, and the room that walked into the room at the same time as the light was the jade lady with the hot soup.

"Are you awake?"

"Hmm."

"It's time to take your medicine."

"There is Lao Yuniang."

Yu Niang sat on the side of the couch generously and neatly, although the costume is still just a linen plain skirt, and there are no outstanding accessories on the bun, but it is better to dress well, and her well-developed figure is lined out, although the chest is not spectacular, but the bud is just in line with the desire to say that it is still resting, the curve of the waist and hips is a stroke of heaven, people can't help but want to touch it, the most youthful and invincible in life, the jade girl in front of him is full of vitality, the pretty face is like an egg, the eyes are like stars, the skin is smooth like satin, the brilliant morning sun shines, If the hair is golden, it shows that the face can be broken by blowing, and the virgin body is hidden in fragrance, although Gu Pan is not flattering, but it is quite aura, so that Wu Sheng, a young man, can't see it, and if you look at it, you will be attracted.

Yu Niang helped Wu Sheng to sit up on the couch, the clothes were thin in the summer, and it was inevitable that the skin would be blind date, and the young body was like a furnace, and she could feel the heat when she touched it, which made Yu Niang's cheeks slightly red, but she didn't have a lot of twisting, and when Wu Sheng sat down, she picked up the medicine bowl, scooped a spoonful of medicinal soup, and gently handed it to Wu Sheng's mouth.

Wu Sheng is a son of strong blood and strength, he couldn't move a few days ago, but now he is quite active, and he is fed medicine and food by Yu Niang, where is his husband's face? When he took the medicine bowl, the two fingers touched, Wu Sheng felt that the other side was cool and silky, like a mountain stream flowing through his fingers, indescribably comfortable, Yu Niang was like an electric shock, retracted her hand like lightning, and didn't have time to say the words to her mouth, and lowered her head slightly to fiddle with the corners of her clothes.

Wu Sheng was slightly embarrassed, and poured all the hot decoction in one go, almost didn't give him a mouth full of bubbles, and it was not good to show a thing or two, he lost his temper in front of the beauty, so he had to pretend to be casual, wiped his mouth, and returned the medicine bowl to Yu Niang, and suddenly felt that he should say something at this time, and he didn't know what to say, so he said without thinking, "When I can stay and walk around, I will go back to the barracks to recuperate." ”

Yu Niang carefully took the medicine bowl, for fear of touching Wu Sheng's fingers again, hearing his brainless words, somehow, an indescribable emotion surged in her chest, and finally this emotion turned into a grievance, and secretly thought: Wu Shengmo didn't dislike his family for not taking care of him well?

got up with grievances and shame, and Yu Niang was about to go out with a soup bowl.

If she left like this, there would be a gap between the two, but Yu Niang was a hero who dared to go outside the county to collect medicinal materials for her father, and her courage was greater than that of the average little lady, and the ordinary little lady was wronged at this time, so she swallowed it silently, she turned back to Wu Sheng before going out and said: "The slave is not a doctor in the army, it is inevitable that there will be a place where there is poor care, Wu Lang said that the slave is changed, Wu Lang is a hero who kills thieves for the country, this time the slave did not take care of Wu Lang according to the instructions of the county, is it a slave." ”

Wu Sheng immediately panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, what is Yu Niang talking about, if it weren't for Yu Niang's thoughtful care, where would I have recovered so quickly?" Yu Niang's words tormented me! ”

Yu Niang tilted her head, skeptical, "Really? ”

Wu Sheng knew that he had abruptly abruptly made the other party unhappy, and he was so sorry that he hurriedly said that he would redeem it, "Take it seriously!" Believe it or not, I can do a good job now! As he spoke, he waved his arms a few times, and he was still dissatisfied, so he was about to jump on the ground.

Seeing this, Yu Niang knew that Wu Sheng really didn't blame herself, and saw that Wu Sheng was going to stay, so she hurriedly ran over and put the medicine bowl and pushed him back, "Your injury is not healed, don't move like this, go back and lie down." ”

Wu Sheng was relieved to see that Yu Niang was not angry, but he didn't dare to really let go, and asked with concern: "Do you believe my words?" ”

Yu Niang is only sixteen or seventeen years old, she is not very old, and there are still some children who have not completely faded, she snorted when she heard this, and pretended to be dissatisfied: "You can't wait to go back to the barracks!" ”

Wu Sheng was embarrassed, embarrassed and disturbed: "I'm not afraid of bothering you, I have worked hard for you to take care of it these days, and I really don't want to go." After saying this, he suddenly blessed his soul, and hurriedly added seriously: "Seeing that you are busy going in and out every day, tired and sweating, I really can't bear it." ”

Yu Niang got Wu Sheng's understanding, and she was in a good mood, especially the latter sentence, which made her heart flutter, things in this world, few can understand themselves more than others, especially understand their own efforts more intimately, although Yu Niang's heart is sweet, her face is still childish: "The slave still thinks that the doctor in the army is clever and delicate, and the slave can't compare to it!" ”

Wu Sheng sat back on the couch, although he knew that the doctors in the army and the nursing skills were indeed good, but at this time, for some reason, he didn't want to admit this, seeing that Yu Niang carefully checked the wound for him, for fear that he would break the mouth just now, he just wanted to make the beauty happy, and he was ashamed to say at the moment: "You don't know, the doctors in the army are all men, all of them are big-handed, they don't know what the pain is, the intestines flow out and stuff them back, the wound suppurates and squeezes it hard, The blood and water could splash out for several steps, causing the wounded to cry and howl all day long, not to mention how miserable it was...... What a light-hearted ...... like you?"

Seeing that Wu Sheng said something interesting, Yu Niang couldn't help laughing out loud, covering her small mouth, seeing Wu Sheng's smirk, she knew that he was making herself happy, although she was really comfortable, she was so embarrassed that she hit him and glared at him again, then she put away the dishes and spoons again, and did not forget to tell when she went out: "Don't move, I'll bring you food." ”

Yu Niang went out, Wu Sheng was still laughing, of course he didn't know, after Yu Niang went out, he remembered his stupid appearance just now, and couldn't help laughing out loud, and scolded a fool.

Of course, at this time, the two of them don't know that after this trouble, their relationship has been one step closer, and the feelings between men and women, especially the feelings between simple boys and girls, are often born in the slapstick.

The war has started, the wounded in the military hospital are bound to increase day by day, and in the end it will be overcrowded, Lingwu County will assign the wounded from Dingyuan City to the people's homes to recuperate, which is a manifestation of mobilizing the people to participate in the defense of the city, Wu Sheng is seriously injured, and it is also logical to be assigned to the home of Yu Niang who opened a pharmacy, as for whether there is Chai Kehong saw that Wu Sheng got along with Yu Niang happily along the way, and took special care of the reason, it is unknown, Li Congjing's thinking on governing the army, there is a charter that cares about the issue of soldiers becoming families, Chai Kehong has this move to push the boat along the river, and it is not surprising.

All in all, under the dedicated care of Yu Niang's family, Wu Sheng, who was physically and mentally comfortable, recovered from his injuries very quickly.

......

In the blink of an eye, a few days have passed, as the southernmost county in the three hundred miles of flat land at the eastern foot of Helan Mountain, Lingwu County has not been attacked by the Dingyan Army on a large scale, of course, this is also related to the Dingyan Army's combat strategy against Lingwu County, at this stage Liu Zhiyuan will focus on Lingwu County on the edge of the Yellow River, in order to prevent Lingzhou reinforcements as the primary task.

Wu Sheng enjoyed a rare period of comfort and leisure between the wars in a small border county.

In the afternoon, the slanting sun hangs on the branches of the old trees, the shadows of the trees on the long street are not wide, the shadows cast by the houses are connected together, and it is also a city, and the outline of the eaves has the artistic conception of the pen walking the dragon and snake, with a bit of the unique flying and heavy and calm taste of the Tang people.

The duck with white feathers stretched its neck and called to pass by, and the movement of its eyes looking left and right was the same beat as the neck stretching and the voice calling, all of which were all at once, although they were not suppressed and frustrated, but they were also clean and neat.

The rooster flapped its wings, flapped a little dust, and walked with a bunch of hens and chicks of different feathers of different colors, like an emperor patrolling the territory, and the bright thick tail feathers were raised high.

Encountering the not majestic earth dog that suddenly jumped out of the street, the chickens and ducks immediately snorted and flew around, and the dust swirled in the sun, and the earth dog chased the chickens and ducks with the intention of playing for a while, and then stopped all fours and stuck out his tongue to look at them far away, and he was cute and cute.

Or when one or two children run out, the earth dog will happily slip over, wagging its tail around the child, occasionally raising its eternally clear-eyed face, eager to play with its little master.

Yu Niang helped Wu Sheng to walk in the streets and alleys, one of them walked quietly, his eyes were slightly novel, and he was engrossed in listening to the people next to him about the battlefield, and one person deliberately took steps that could not be too majestic, trying to let his story be ups and downs, but fortunately, although the latter intended to show off, in the end, he was a scholar, and he knew how to be subtle and introverted, so as not to have such a disgusting posture as eyebrows flying and dancing.

People recuperating from injuries need to move around more, and they also need to see the sunshine, the ordinary scenery of an ordinary town is the artistic conception of the ordinary alleys and alleys of the slanting sun grass and trees, and the young men and women at the moment are just ordinary people, saying things that are not surprising. From time to time, there are children who are familiar with Yu Niang, who are blind and coaxed from afar, shouting that Yu Niang has Lang Jun, and then running away together, so as not to make Yu Niang ashamed and annoyed, but he can't give up Wu Sheng to chase them, so he can only pretend to warn these naughty boys, beware that I will clean you up in the future, and this can not be said too badly, so as not to leave a bad impression on the sons and daughters beside him.

Wu Sheng is a son in the end, he is not too shy, and he can still continue without blushing and heartbeat: "So I was able to survive from the battlefield last time, and I was half thanks to God's favor and half relied on the robe and siblings, and no one could do without these two things." ”

Yu Niang sighed with palpitations: "Thousands of people, just a few hundred back, the battlefield is too dangerous, so many people die every day, it feels terrible to think about it." ”

Wu Sheng's face was solemn, "An inch of mountains and rivers and an inch of blood, since ancient times, how many soldiers have died in battle?" As far as Shuofangjun is concerned, it is his duty to defend the territory for the country, and as long as he has a breath, he has to fight to the death with the thieves. Protecting the monarch and the people, fighting the ministers, even if the horse leather shroud died on the battlefield, there is nothing to complain about, if not, what is the point of the border army? The Tang people in the Central Plains and Jiangnan, and His Majesty in Luoyang, are all looking at us. ”

Yu Niang suddenly felt that the son in front of her was extremely tall, and there was a sense of admiration in her heart, which was admiration for the hero and gratitude to the border army, "But Luoyang and Jiangnan have never been there, people say that Luoyang is prosperous and rich in Jiangnan, and those soldiers who died in battle have never seen what Luoyang Yangzhou is like......

Wu Sheng shook his head, "Whether you've seen it or not, does it matter?" Whether they have seen it or not, the soldiers are willing to fight to the death for it, or die in battle. For us, home and country are not in sight, but in our hearts. ”

At this moment, Yu Niang faintly understood what a soldier was.

A group of hot-blooded sons and daughters who are willing to pay their seven-foot bodies just because they have a family and country in their hearts.

Even if his home and country are thousands of miles away from him.

Only with them can there be a family and a country, and only then can the people live and work in peace and contentment.

Yu Niang was suddenly very happy, glad that she was a Tang person, and there was such a Tang army in front of her, and she was even more glad that she could contribute to it.

When the sun was setting, the call of Yu Niang and A-Niang sounded at the end of the street, and the sound passed through the streets and alleys, telling them to hurry back to eat.

Wu Sheng and Yu Niang looked at each other and smiled, only then did they notice that they had missed the time to go back, and hurriedly rushed home.

At this time, this young man and woman still didn't know the meaning of the sentence "Gambling books are full of tea, and it was just ordinary at that time".

When he returned to the pharmacy with Yu Niang, Wu Sheng knew that Wu Chun was also here.

I don't know if it's because Yu Niang's cooking skills are too good, this guy unceremoniously stayed in the shop to eat, the border atmosphere is different from the Central Plains, eating has been prevalent A table of people around the tall round table together, and the bottom house of the market is different from the scholarly family and the official eunuchs, there are not so many etiquette constraints, Wu Chun's gobbling appearance during the banquet really made the simple Yu Niang A-Niang happy for a while, and he was trying to pick up vegetables, if it weren't for Wu Chun's resolute refusal to drink, Yu Niang's grandfather would definitely take out the treasured good wine, Come and entertain this good boy who defends the land and fights.

After eating, Wu Sheng and Wu Chun sat under the old tree in the backyard for a while, the two young people had good teeth, but they didn't need to pick their teeth, and after Yu Niang thoughtfully brought tea to them, they retreated, leaving them to talk alone.

"Huaiyuan, quiet, Lingwu three counties have become a pot of porridge, tens of thousands of thieves in the three counties of the land interspersed, more than a hundred miles of land has no place to stop, the thief marshal Liu Zhiyuan's strategy of using troops is really clever, if it is not for General Chai and Kuai, Lu two joined the army to plan military aircraft, I am afraid that the situation in the three counties has been completely eroded. The robes who retreated from the front line of Dingyuan City, including the soldiers of Xinbao and Chonggang, were able to gather a total of less than 300 people, and this time they were all pressed on the battlefield of Lingwu County. I've been riding out of the city these days, but I almost can't come back, the straight thief of the dog day, the horse army of the thief army is indeed brave, and we really can't take advantage of it when it comes to fighting alone and small confrontations...... Now it depends on how long General Gao can hold out in the south, if the Dingyan Thief Army and the Hexi Thief Army are united, this place will not be able to hold......"

Wu Chun briefly talked to Wu Sheng about the situation, and said before leaving: "At present, the channel to contact Lingzhou is isolated, and you may not be able to go back, but the envoy will definitely not let the thief army do such nonsense, if there may be no turnaround in time, you can recuperate from your injuries with peace of mind......"

In the end, Wu Chun took out two letters from his arms, one stained with blood and the other clean, and handed them to Wu Sheng: "It seems that I don't need to carry your family letter to you...... If you can return to Lingzhou in the future, you can bring back this letter from me......"

After saying this, Wu Chun left. Wu Sheng sat alone in the courtyard for a long time, looking at the two letters in his hand, until Yu Niang sat down beside her, and did not say a word.

It was finally dark, and the real fierce battle had just arrived.

......

Ten months later, Wu Sheng's injuries had almost recovered.

The weather has turned colder, and at ordinary times, Wu Sheng also has to wear a long shirt.

After getting along day and night, especially being taken care of day and night, the relationship between Wu Sheng and Yu Niang has become closer and closer, and it is like a family. Many times, Wu Sheng noticed that Grandpa Yu Niang and Ah Niang were together, looking at what they were talking to in a whisper, and looking at their eyes, with a sense of scrutiny and appreciation. Especially in the past few days, Wu Sheng found that Yu Niang would always blush from time to time in front of him, and the little lady, who was originally down-to-earth and generous, became strangely more and more shy.

When there is nothing to do, Grandpa Yu Niang will also ask about Wu Sheng's family history, and it is not a casual question. Yu Niang Ah Niang seems to love Wu Sheng's offspring even more, and when she talks to him, there is always a smile in her eyes that can't be hidden.

Although Wu Sheng is unemployed, he is not a child, and it is not difficult for him to guess what is hidden behind the various signs. But Wu Sheng could only pretend not to know, and when Yu Niang sometimes tested him, he did everything possible to avoid it.

In the face of the war, Wu Shengzhi was not here.

On this day, he and Yu Niang were helping to dry the medicine in the courtyard together. The breeze blew, and a few pieces of dried herbs rose with the wind and flew to Yu Niang's head. Wu Sheng, who was standing next to Yu Niang, didn't think much about it, his movements were gentle, and he helped her pick the dried herbs one by one.

I don't know, my daughter's hair is the most untouchable, not the person they approve from the bottom of their hearts, this move will inevitably make them extremely disgusted, on the contrary, those close to their hearts have this action, but it is also easy to harvest extraordinary effects, the power is no less than the cat's "touch the head to kill", which can make them lose all resistance in an instant.

The jade lady in front of her instantly blushed and her neck was rooted, and the pestle couldn't move there.

Grandpa and Auntie Yuniang were lifting the curtain and preparing to enter the hospital, seeing this scene, they tacitly stopped their movements, and looked at this extraordinarily heartwarming scene together, with a knowing smile on their faces.

However, this scene did not last.

A loud bang suddenly came from the direction of the city wall, which caught people off guard.

Loud rumbling noises rang out one after another.

Everyone's faces changed.

Wu Sheng's hand stiffened, looking in the direction of the city wall, under the early autumn sun, the tenderness in his eyes was gradually replaced by a hot and determined killing color.

Grandpa and Auntie entered the courtyard together, "What's wrong?" ”

"The thieves are attacking the city!" Wu Sheng said in a deep voice, after speaking, he turned around and walked into the house, and after a while, he walked out with armor on his waist and a horizontal knife in his hand, looking at the family in the courtyard who had taken care of him for a long time and had great "expectations" for himself, and said slowly but firmly: "Xiaosheng, I'm going to defend the city!" ”

As soon as he said this, Yu Niang immediately covered her mouth with her hand, and her tears were not raised.

What does it mean to enter the battle, if the previous Yu Niang didn't have much of a concept, these days under Wu Sheng's narration, she already has a basic understanding.

For the current battle, it is a life and death.

Wu Sheng either doesn't step out of this courtyard and steps out, it is very likely that he will be separated from life and death.

Yu Niang grabbed him, and the simple woman said with tears in her eyes: "Your injuries are just right, and you haven't fully recovered, how can you go to defend the city at this time?" If you're not careful, the wound will burst! ”

Grandpa Yuniang also persuaded: "There are 2,000 defenders in Lingwu County, not worse than you, besides, you have already fought fiercely in Dingyuan City, and the order in the army will not also let you go back to Lingzhou, which means that you don't have to participate in the war anymore." ”

Wu Sheng shook his head slowly, and said loudly: "As a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, it is my duty in this life to guard the country for the Tang Dynasty, and I can't leave it behind for a moment, regardless of whether it is required in the army." ”

Seeing that Wu was resolute and knew that nothing could be done, Yu Niang had to make the last effort, and cried: "Do you ignore Yu Niang?" Don't you know what this child thinks of you? You're gone...... What do you let her do? ”

"Ah Niang......" Yu Niang hugged the woman, choked and couldn't speak, but a pair of eyes containing a thousand words fell tightly on Wu Sheng.

Looking at Yu Niang's tearful face, Wu Sheng's heart was like a pinprick, and for a moment, he almost couldn't help it and promised them to stay. He is a young man who has not yet reached the crown, how can he not know Yu Niang's intentions? How could he not have fantasized about a good thing with Yu Niang?

But the next moment, Wu Sheng lowered his head and put down his armor and horizontal sword, and slowly but firmly bowed down in front of the three of them.

"The Huns have not been destroyed, why should they be at home?" As he got up, he said.

Picking up the armor, Wu Sheng couldn't bear to look at them anymore, turned around and left.

"Wait!" Yu Niang, who was crying into tears, suddenly spoke up, ran over quickly, and stopped in front of Wu Sheng.

wiped away her tears, Yu Niang tried her best to show a smiling face, making herself look no different from usual, but as soon as the words came out, she still trembled uncontrollably, "If you want to go to the battlefield, I won't stop you, because you are a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, and you should protect your family and defend the country...... But the war has started at the head of the city, how can you go to the barracks like this? Concubine, please wear armor for Langjun! ”

Although she tried her best to be stronger, she couldn't help but burst into tears as soon as she finished speaking.

Wu Sheng's body froze, he didn't expect Yu Niang to say this.

The next moment, Yu Niang had already taken away the battle robe and armor from him.

The robe was sewn by her own hands, with her stitches and threads on it, and the armor was cleaned by her own hands, and a tear fell on it.

Wu Sheng stood there stiffly, still changing clothes and armor for him by Yu Niang.

From beginning to end, he didn't say a word, nor did he look at her. He was afraid that what he said would bring crying, and he was afraid that when he saw her face, he would stay soft-hearted.

Finally, handing the horizontal knife to Wu Sheng, Yu Niang lowered her head, took two steps back, made way of the way, and did not look at him again. She was also afraid, afraid to take a look, so she couldn't help but pounce in front of him, desperately stopping him from letting him go.

"Let's go......" Yu Niang said with her head down.

Wu Sheng took a deep breath and strode out of the courtyard.

She didn't finish her words, because she couldn't finish speaking, and she couldn't help crying when those three words came out.

She wants to say that the slave will miss you, and the slave will wait for you.

She didn't say it.

She never had a chance to say it to his face again.

Wu Sheng is the protagonist and not the protagonist, so here he can write a lot of things that can't be written on Li Congjing and didn't have time to write before. In addition, the two lines of one up and one down can also better reflect Li Congjing's changes to Datang and show the character style of Datang today.
