The convoy came in a hurry, and in an instant, they came to the two of them and stopped, and the two of them saw that it was the palace guards who often came, and the captain clenched his fists anxiously and said, "Two, where is my county lord?" ”

Li Ke said with a smile: "I went into the mountains to hunt!" Why, your prince is really in a hurry this time, let you bring the carriage to catch her back? ”

"Li Zhuangshi said with a smile, on the contrary, our prince asked the three county lords to stay here for a few more days, and in the carriage were the two palace maids beside the county lord and some food!"

Li Ke and Sheng Ping were a little stunned after hearing this, and Li Ke continued to ask: "Why did this Prince Heng change his temperament?" Didn't you see the sky urging the county lord to return to the city? How is it a gift and a gift! Don't you plan to let the county lord go? The captain of the guard clasped his fists again and said, "I'm afraid I'll have to bother you two for some time!" This time, Jiannu came fiercely, and the prince asked the county lord not to enter the city first, and then talk about it when Jiannu retreated! ”

The two were taken aback when they heard this, and asked in unison, "Jiannu has entered the customs?" ”

"Yes! In October, he broke through the pass from the Yellow Cliff Pass, and even broke through the counties of Jifu, and now he has captured Linqing, and he is about to hit here! The captain said with a heavy face. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sheng Ping shook his body after hearing this, grabbed Li Ke's shoulder and asked urgently, "What about Hejian?" How's Kawama? ”

"Hejian has also fallen, and the whereabouts of the officials of the city are unknown!" The captain said with a look of regret.

After listening to this, Sheng Ping's teeth tightened and she fainted to the ground. Li Ke hurriedly squatted down, held Sheng Ping's head in his arms, and pinched her person a few times, and Sheng Ping woke up slowly.

Sheng Ping didn't cry when she woke up, just closed her eyes and cried silently!

Li Ke sighed and persuaded: "It's just that the whereabouts are unknown, and it is very likely that he escaped!" You still have a young brother at home, take care! After saying that, he gently picked her up and walked home.

Sheng Ping lay in his arms and didn't struggle, just sobbed in a low voice, and after a while, he opened his eyes wide and asked complainingly, "Big brother, are you still leaving?" ”

Li Ke shook his head and said firmly: "Don't go!" There are my younger siblings here, there is my home, my life, no matter what happens in the future, we face it together! ”

Sheng Ping nodded silently, stopped sobbing and said softly: "I'm much better, big brother put me down!" ”

Li Ke gently put her down, and when he saw that she was still a little shaky, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to support her and said, "Don't walk around these days, rest at home!" Sheng Ping shook her head and said, "No! I'm going to go into the city tomorrow, and when the news of the fall of the river comes, everyone in the family must be in a panic, and there are still some industries in the city that need to be taken care of, and I have to go back and see! ”

Li Ke thought about it and had to say, "Okay! It's just tomorrow that we will go into the city to transport grain, and we will go together! Seeing that her face was bloodless and sad, he instructed: "You see that there are still many things in the family that depend on you, so you must pay attention to your body!" Sheng Ping nodded and said, "I understand!" Thank you, big brother! ”

Soon, the news that the whereabouts of the Qing army Nanluo and Shengju people were unknown spread all over the village, and people were panicked for a while, and Shenghui's mother and son were also heartbroken!

Lin Yihu was very calm when he came back and heard about it, while comforting the three members of the family, he summoned everyone to appease him: "The master is just missing, not to mention that we still have the young master, so don't panic, take care of your duties, and wait for the master's return with peace of mind!" The villagers were relieved at this time.

Seeing that everyone dispersed, Li Ke and Lin Yihu talked about going into the city to transport grain, Lin Yihu thought for a while and said: "It has to be transported back quickly, or it will be troublesome if you don't build slaves and besiege the city, not to mention that the city is broken, even if it is besieged for two months, there will definitely be a shortage of food in the city, and then our grain will definitely be requisitioned!" ”

Li Ke was anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Okay, we will go back to the city tomorrow to transport grain!" After saying that, the two of them made their own arrangements.

When it got dark, Xianning County returned from hunting, and after seeing the guards from the palace, he was very determined to return to Qingzhou!

Li Ke and the others persuaded: "If Jiannu attacks, you won't be able to help when you go back to the city!" What's more, Jiannu may not come here, if you go back to the city, you will not be able to get out easily! ”

Xianning County Lord Zhengse replied: "When this country is in danger, although I, as a woman, cannot go into battle to kill the enemy and be loyal to the country, but going home to accompany my parents to make them feel at ease is also considered filial piety. ”

Everyone is used to seeing her messing around, but they didn't expect that the words she said at this time were so righteous and awe-inspiring, and they couldn't help but secretly admire!

Li Ke and the others were not easy to persuade again, so they had to say: "It just so happens that tomorrow we are going to go into the city to transport grain, and then everyone will go back to the city together!" And they all agreed, and rested to each other.

Early the next morning, everyone asked Shenghui and Heiya to take the auxiliary soldiers to guard the cottage carefully, so they gathered the soldiers of the village protection team and set off together with the palace guards.

Li Ke still rode the green mule, but his mood was different, looking at the bleak mountains and forests left and right, there was no longer the interest and curiosity he had when he first came, only his eyes were full of anxiety and worry.

Maybe the news of Jiannu's southward journey has spread, and the official road is deserted, even if there are occasionally one or two pedestrians, they are in a hurry, but fortunately, the group is familiar with the road, and the time has not passed and it has approached Qingzhou.

At this time, Qingzhou has been heavily guarded, although the city gate has not been closed, but there are already officers and soldiers in the inspection of pedestrians, strictly prevent the Qing soldiers from spying, the city is also a banner display, crowded.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly rushed to the city gate, and suddenly saw a commotion at the head of the city from a distance, and then the officers and soldiers at the city gate dispersed the people who were still waiting for interrogation, and closed the city gate with a "gala-la-la"! Everyone looked puzzled, and Lin Yihu stretched out his hand to stop the convoy. Li Ke came to Lin Yihu's side and said, "Don't you treat us as Qing soldiers? ”

Lin Yihu shook his head solemnly, stretched out his hand to the west and said, "Look! ”

Li Ke looked in the direction of his finger, only to see a puff of smoke and dust rising from the sunset that was gradually sinking in the distance, accompanied by the rumbling sound of horses' hooves, a small group of cavalry quickly appeared on the skyline, and the Qing soldiers were still coming!

Lin Yihu saw that the Qing soldiers were rapidly approaching, his face changed, and he hurriedly shouted: "Array!" Array! The spear team is in front, the archery team is in the middle, the sword and shield team is in the back, and the mandarin duck team is protecting the left and right! ”

The guards were in a panic, although they had been training for more than a month, but they were afraid of the usual reputation of the Qing soldiers and the pressure of the cavalry's rapid impact, and everyone suddenly panicked and became a mess.

Seeing this, Li Ke frowned, roared, and shouted: "The cavalry team will give me it!" After saying that, he beat his horse and rushed forward, but fortunately, the cavalry team was still refined, and he rushed out with Li Ke under the leadership of the dog baby. Li Ke did not know the enemy's situation, and did not dare to go too far, so he stopped his horse after leaving the brigade twenty paces away.

The Qing soldiers and horses obviously also saw the guards, and when they saw that everyone was on guard, they didn't dare to make a mistake, so they turned from fifty steps in front of Li Ke, drew an arc, and stopped a hundred steps away!

Obviously, they didn't expect that outside Qingzhou City, they would encounter such a strangely dressed, but fairly well-disciplined team, stopping in the distance and pointing at everyone, with a look of surprise.

Lin Yihu saw that the guards had finally lined up in formation, sighed, beat his horse and came to Li Ke's side, pointed to the Qing soldiers in the distance and said, "Li Gongzi be careful!" This is the Baya soldier of Dongyu, the most powerful! ”

Li Ke nodded, roughly counted the Qing soldiers in the distance, there were only about thirty people, all of them were one person and one horse, the armor was bright, and the equipment was neat, so he asked with some confusion: "Are they forwards?" Why are there only so many people? ”

"Not a striker! Just some sentry riders! Lin Yihu shook his head.

Li Ke looked at the panicked Ming army at the head of the city, and then at the Qing soldiers who were calm and relaxed in the distance, shook his head again and again and sighed: "Just a few people have scared a big city like this!" No wonder the Tartars can crisscross the country, and no one can control it! ”

Lin Yihu smiled bitterly: "Li Gongzi should not underestimate these thirty or so people, these Bayala are all one out of a hundred, not only superb martial arts, but also wearing three armors, and they are also elite in the Dongyu formation, not to mention these ordinary guards, even the border soldiers dare not underestimate it when they see it!" ”

Sure enough, while the two were talking, those Qing soldiers took action, and obviously they found that this group of people and horses saw that they not only did not flee, but also dared to line up, so they wanted to come over and try the depth. I saw that they were divided into two teams, the first team had only a dozen horsemen, and they came straight to the horse team, and the latter team had more than 20 horsemen, and went straight to the infantry.
