Not long after Chen Nuo sent his troops, Colonel Zuo returned from Tianwangzhai.

Speaking of which, Zuo Xiaoben was the 'vanguard officer' of this crusade against Xiliang, and he should stay here. It was only because the Xiliang people went and returned, and suddenly put them on their tails, causing heavy losses to Tianwangzhai, and later because Zhang Xiu advanced regardless of morale, this allowed Chen Nuo to command Tianwangzhai to defeat Xiliang once, which was regarded as finding the field back. But Tianwangzhai because of the two wars, they were not good at fighting, after these two battles, thousands of people and horses lost, the wounded were not counted, and those wounded stayed here naturally could not be arranged, so they could only be temporarily brought back to Tianwangzhai by Zuo Colonel for placement. Colonel Zuo went, everything was dealt with, and he only came back today. It's just that as soon as he came back, before he arrived at the camp, he heard the slightest sound of the piano in the distance, and he couldn't help frowning slightly, and there was a fire in his heart.

He didn't know anything about music at all, and when he first heard it, he thought it was just for fun, and he secretly said that now that he had just lost a lot of brothers after two wars, how could anyone still have the heart to listen to this beautiful sound, and he was unhappy. Without saying a word, he rushed to the front of the gate, drank away the guards of the gate, and led the minions straight to the direction of Qinyin. It's just that he walked forward in a circle, listened to two more sounds, and didn't feel it at first, but suddenly paused, and suddenly stopped dumbly, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, and he could already hear the grievance in the sound of the piano.

"Leader Left, what's wrong with you?"

Behind him, the little minions were a little strange when they saw that Colonel Zuo, who was still menacing just now, suddenly stopped silent. The left colonel didn't say a word, and continued to rush in the direction of Qin Yin with his subordinates. When he was about to reach the big tent, he saw Cai Wenji stroking the qin from a distance, so he immediately paused, stood there quietly and listened, without saying a word, and did not let other subordinates come forward to disturb him. At this moment, not only Zuo Xiao was listening, but in fact, where Cai Wenji was stroking the qin, there were a handful of people standing silently behind him, including Chen Nuo's pair of elderly 'parents'.

This pair of elderly 'parents', they are all gray-haired, holding hands, with a pair of kind eyes, staring at Cai Wenji lovingly, but they want to use that complicated sadness to pour out their inner pain, and the tears in their eyes have been wet many times. He is like this for the second elder, and in fact, the others are about the same. Opposite Cai Wenji, there were even more minions who unconsciously stayed in a group of patrols, as well as those people from the Tianwang Village who rushed to hear the sound, they surrounded this place far away from the inside and three layers outside, but they were all silent, and they cooperated very tacitly without saying a word.

At this time, they didn't speak, and Cai Wenji's piano was actually speaking for them.

The words spoken by the sound of the piano, although they cannot be said in a straight voice, are better than the natural rhyme, which makes people feel that the silence here is better than the sound. It is these usually lazy Tianwang Zhai people, usually only scolding their mothers all day long The thieves, their rude roaring voices are gone, and they are destroyed by the sound of the piano, and they have become like children with weak physiques. This kind of chill gushes from the heart of the foot, reaches the perineum, reaches the purple mansion, and goes straight to the top of the head, making the whole body tremble. And then there are no more vile, coarse, stubborn roots of inferior nature, and all that remains are weak, delicate, sensitive nerves. This fragile nerve, finally under the teasing and destruction of Cai Wenji's piano sound, quickly broke the embankment and collapsed, so that it was out of control and turned into tears.

As a result, there are countless people who shed tears when they heard the sound of the piano, and countless people who felt pathos from it, and there were also those who were insensitive. The entire team appreciating the sound of the piano seemed to be demonized by the sound of Cai Wenji's piano, and their mood was depressed and pathetic to the extreme, and it was rendered to the extreme. This kind of emotion, once it was provoked to the apex, finally burst out collectively, whimpering, like three thousand men fighting on the battlefield, but none of them were heroes, all of them became sensitive animals, and they were collectively venting their inner dissatisfaction.

Even the left colonel was silent, and his eyes had a hazy feeling. He struggled to keep his emotions in check and not let 'pathos' knock him down. Although I tried to do this, the turmoil in my heart was difficult to suppress, like a volcano, which would burst out at any time. Fortunately, at this time, the sound of the piano stopped, and everything around seemed to be quiet all of a sudden, not sad or happy, not happy or afraid, as if it had not changed forever.

Ruoda's barracks suddenly fell silent, except for the faint sound of sobbing, as if entering a dead camp. Those people stood for a long time, no one spoke for a while, and no one refused to disperse, as if they still had unfinished sorrow, infinite desolation that had not been vented, and still needed to be refined, and refined.

"It's all scattered, it's all scattered!"

Zuo Xiao reined in his thoughts, rushed forward with his subordinates, and scattered everyone else, before he walked in front of Cai Wenji, glanced at Cai Wenji carefully, and the people behind him, just sighed lightly, and said to Cai Wenji: "Who is the girl, but I have never seen it, you are playing the piano in the camp, and you make such a desolate sound, why is this?" ”

Cai Wenji put the piano down, got up and smiled, and said, "Just for a meal." ”

"Just for one meal?"

Colonel Zuo thought that he had heard it wrong, and that everyone who asked for food was going to the bandits' den, which was really a big joke. Originally, if he had his usual temper, he would have blasted Cai Wenji away, but his trace of compassion was aroused by Cai Wenji's piano sound just now, so he naturally didn't take these little things to heart. He didn't think about it, he just waved his big hand, pointed at the minions behind him, and shouted: "Go, prepare these people's meals, let them go down to eat." He didn't have time to greet her, so he led his subordinates towards Zhang Bai's big tent.

He was also strange, everyone else had been playing the piano and drumming in front of his tent for a long time, but he didn't react at all like a dead man, it was really unusual. Colonel Zuo muttered in his heart, and regardless of the expressions of Cai Wenji and the others, he immediately led people to look at Zhang Bai and ride under the tent. As soon as he opened the tent and entered, a pungent smell of wine suddenly poured in, which only choked his eyebrows, but he didn't pay attention to it and walked straight in. There was no shadow of Zhang Baiqi in front of the handsome case, but the empty wine jar fell to the ground, and Zuo Colonel looked left and right, and then found a person lying on the couch next to him. Needless to say, I knew that it was Zhang Baiqi.

Seeing Zhang Baiqi, who was drunk and unconscious, Colonel Zuo frowned, and called someone outside the account to question, but he knew the roughly. He thought about it carefully, no wonder there was a person lying on the ground drunk when he advanced the tent first, and it was he who dared to get Zhang Baiqi drunk. It's just that he doesn't recognize the person before, and he really doesn't understand how Zhang Baiqi drank like this with him. If he wants to go back to Zhang Baiqi, it seems that he needs to wait for Zhang Baiqi to wake up, but now he can't. After thinking about it, he could only turn around and go out of the account, and he was about to ask Cai Wenji for questions.

It's just that at this time, a pawn came over and wanted to pass the word to Zhang Baiqi on behalf of Chen Nuo. But Chen Nuo was in a hurry to send his troops, and he was originally going to take Gao Shun with him, but Gao Shun was drunk, and he couldn't take him with him again, so he had to leave him under the tent. Originally, he wanted Gao Shun to pass a message to Zhang Baiqi by the way, but Gao Shun was so drunk that he fell asleep, so he had to send someone else to pass the word. When the colonel saw this, he stopped the man and told him what he had to say. When Colonel Zuo heard the news of Chen Nuo's troops, he was slightly stunned, and before he could speak, Cai Wenji had already heard it, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked Colonel Zuo: "This leader, are you saying that General Chen Nuo Chen has already led the troops out?" ”

Colonel Zuo glanced at Cai Wenji and said, "Yes, what's the matter?" You little woman asked what are you doing with this, you can leave after eating, don't hang around here, we are not good people! If you meet one or two ignorant people and you're in trouble, don't blame me for not reminding you. ”

Colonel Zuo's words were a bit of a scare, but who Cai Wenji was, she didn't care about it at all, she heard Colonel Zuo say yes, she was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "You mean Chen Nuo is here?" If that's the case, then we're not in the wrong place. Cai Wenji said, quickly turned around again, grabbed the hands of Chen Nuo's old 'parents', and told them that they were not looking for the wrong place, Chen Nuo was here. When Chen Nuo's 'parents' heard it, it was just a gentle call for 'son' and 'son'. Naturally, every move here could not escape Colonel Zuo's eyes, and Colonel Zuo was naturally stunned when he heard it.

Chen Nuo first commanded Tianwangzhai to repel the traitor Wang Gu, killed Hu Chi'er, and then led them to the feat of severely damaging the people and horses of Xiliang in Shaanxi County. Not to mention that Zhang Baiqi is grateful to Chen Nuo, but Colonel Zuo also admires Chen Nuo. Zuo Xiao was also stunned when he saw that Chen Nuo's 'parents' were in front of him at this time. He first said that he had heard it wrong, but when he took a closer look, Chen Nuo was a little similar to his 'parents', so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked Cai Wenji. This question was immediately answered in the affirmative, and he hurriedly complained about Cai Wenji, only to blame Cai Wenji for not saying it earlier, and immediately invited them to a big tent next to him to rest temporarily.

The Zuo Colonel immediately asked people to prepare some more good dishes and meals, and while entertaining them, he apologized to Chen Nuo's 'parents'. Cai Wenji was bent on seeing Chen Nuo so that she could hand over Chen Nuo's 'parents', but she grabbed Zuo Colonel and asked Zuo Colonel to tell her Chen Nuo's whereabouts. Colonel Zuo also told Cai Wenji what he heard, and only said that Chen Nuo took someone to welcome a young general, and the young general may be Zhao Xueyunyun. When Cai Wenji heard this, she was worried about Zhao Xue in her heart, but she was not at ease, and wanted to go over and have a look. After all, Zhao Xue had rescued her, and she had gotten along well these days, but now that Zhao Xue had lost the news, of course she was extremely worried, so she begged Zuo Colonel, hoping that Zuo Colonel could take care of Chen Nuo's 'parents' on her behalf, and she led the rest of her entourage to catch up with Chen Nuo.

When Colonel Zuo heard this, his face was relieved, and he almost laughed. He also said that Cai Wenji was joking with him, but when he saw Cai Wenji's extremely serious expression, his heart jumped, and he hurriedly said: "This can't be done!" You're a girl, how can I trust you to come over? Besides, General Chen personally stepped in on this matter, what else are you worried about? You can wait here with peace of mind, General Chen will come back sooner or later, but you can't take any chances. ”

Cai Wenji still shook her head, but stubbornly wanted to go. The left colonel also said that she was no more, so she had to compromise and personally selected two hundred elites for her and asked her to bring them. It's just that he couldn't rest assured of her, and said that it was best for him to follow, but because Zhang Baiqi was drunk and there was no one in charge of the camp, he needed to stay for a moment and couldn't pull away. Cai Wenji repeatedly told Colonel Zuo to take care of Chen Nuo's 'parents', and she brought more than 200 people here, all the way out of the gate, and chased them in the direction where Chen Nuo's people went.

However, he said that Chen Nuo led his own men and horses, and looked at the southeast all the way, but he also encountered many soldiers and horses along the way. It's just that these soldiers and horses are probably Xiliang's stragglers, because a large number of people in Xiliang are gone, they can't catch up, or they have the intention not to catch up, so they have sneaked into the mountains, forests and grasses to do the business of robbing houses. Chen Nuo encountered the largest group of men and horses, only thirty or fifty people, and was slightly rushed by Chen Nuo leading the black armor army, and it was dispersed. Na Chen Nuo continued to look at the target and move forward, but he ran into a group of men and horses who were being chased and beaten by the Hun cavalry. During this period, the Hun cavalry looked at this side in strands to add troops, and the men and horses that were being chased and beaten, under the last resort, had to turn back and fight with the Hun cavalry. It's just that there are too many Hun cavalry, and they can't get rid of it for a while, and the tug-of-war on both sides immediately becomes a situation where they are surrounded and beaten. Although it is said that this group of people who were being chased was alone, and they immediately fell into the battle of the siege, but fortunately, there was a young general in one of them, holding a spear, wielding freely, and the gun was like electricity, breaking all the enemies outside the gun, and soon killed a heavy encirclement, leading everyone to break through the periphery.

It's just that although the young general broke a hole in the encirclement and walked away from a few behind him, the rest of the people are still in the encirclement. Those who didn't have time to keep up. Seeing that the Hun soldiers were about to kill the generals, blocking the road, and seeing that they were about to be dumplings, how not to panic, a few soldiers shouted behind the young general: "The general wants to abandon me!" ”

This shout was heard, and the young general in front of him also heard it immediately. He didn't say a word, he raised the spear in his hand, and it was an electric snake instead, turned around and killed several Hun cavalrymen, opened a hole again, and directly lifted the rest of the people out of the encirclement, but not a single one was left. It was also when they rejoiced, and they didn't want to do it because of such a delay between the reflexive of the young general, but they also gave the Hun cavalry a time to replenish the source of troops, and those Hun cavalry who did not catch up, they immediately stretched out like goose wings, overwhelming the young general and other inside and outside. In this way, the young generals and others who were originally trapped in the small encirclement immediately became encircled because of such a delay. As far as his men and horses were, they suddenly entered the sea like mud cows, and they could no longer find the north, only to see the endless roaring Huns on the field.

"General, look, that person is the young general from before!"

At this time, Tanma, who was leading the way in front, pointed to the young general who was surrounded in the field, and said to Chen Nuo. Even Chen Nuo has been thinking about it for a long time, although the person who was lost in the siege was not Zhao Xue, but he was faintly grateful to meet such a young general on the battlefield here, and he couldn't help but love talent. Before Chen Nuo could speak, Zhu Rong Qingyi behind him saw that Chen Nuo was hesitant and did not move, so he asked Chen Nuo, that person was Zhao Xue. When Chen Nuo heard this, he smiled, shook his head and said: "Although they are both young generals and the weapons they use are similar, only that person is much stronger and taller than Zhao Xue, so naturally he is not Zhao Xue." It's just that when I came here before, I was anxious about Zhao Xue's safety, but the most important point was that I forgot to ask. ”

Zhu Rong Qingyi heard this and said, "In this way, this person is not Zhao Xue?" Haven't we run away in vain? She was about to scold Tanma with a cold face, but Chen Nuo shook his head and said: "Don't run in vain, don't run in vain, although it's not Zhao Xue, but such a general is also worthy of me Chen Mou to go on this trip." Zhu Rong Qingyi said dumbly: "What does the general mean by this?" Chen Nuo glanced at her and smiled lightly with her, and Zhu Rong Qingyi immediately understood what he meant. Only Zhu Rong Qingyi looked at the battlefield below, but he was immediately stunned, and hurriedly said: "But, general, this Hun cavalry adds up to three or five hundred, and there are only two hundred cavalry around the general. Besides, since there is no Zhao Xue here, why do you have to take this risk, general? It's not as good as ......."

Before Zhu Rong Qingyi's 'inferior' was finished, Chen Nuo had already tightened the reins of the horse, let out a whistling sound, and shouted to the left and right: "Those who are not afraid of death are given to this general, and those who are afraid of death are left!" As soon as he said a word, he took the lead and already pulled his horse and rushed into the encirclement of the Huns, and behind him, whether it was the black armor army or the personal soldiers he brought, they all swarmed out with Chen Nuo, rushed down directly, and stabbed down fiercely into the Hun cavalry.

That Zhu Rong Qingyi did not let Chen Nuo send troops, but he was afraid that he would be in danger, so it was inevitable that he would persuade him. Seeing that Chen Nuo had already pulled the horse and left, she also instinctively pulled the horse and rushed forward, following behind Chen Nuo, while shouting to Chen Nuo to be careful. Chen Nuo was different, taking the lead with a spear, killing three people, and breaking away the Hun cavalry formation. Facing the young general, Chen Nuo exhaled: "The general can come with me!" He didn't care about the stunned look of the young general, so he immediately led the men and horses to the oblique spur and rushed to kill, causing the Hun cavalry to be in chaos, breaking a gap, and then looking ahead and shouting away. The young general was slightly stunned, although he couldn't recognize Chen Nuoqi, but he could trust him, snorted, and rushed forward with the rest of the men and horses, but he didn't linger for a moment.
