Chapter 14 If I had a choice, I would rather die in the desert

Eiyue Pavilion.

Li Yueli pushed the door in, saw Li Yue'er lying listlessly on the table, and slowly stepped forward. "Yue'er, it's rare for your brother-in-law to invite you out of the palace, why don't you go?"

Li Yue'er didn't know how to answer, so she could only choose to be silent.

"Yue'er, what's wrong with you?

Seeing this, Li Yue'er hurriedly said: "No, no, Yue'er didn't ignore my sister!"

"Then tell me, what happened, and why are you hiding from your brother-in-law?"

"Sister!" Li Yue'er said with a sad face: "Yue'er doesn't know what's wrong, every time I see my brother-in-law, I'm always scared, what to do, Yue'er doesn't want to be like this, but Yue'er is afraid." ”

"What are you afraid of your brother-in-law?"

"My brother-in-law has killed a lot of people, every time I see my brother-in-law, Yue'er always thinks of those who died, their heads fell to the ground, Yue'er also saw them staring at me, it was so scary, Yue'er was afraid. This is Li Yueer's heart disease and the source of fear.

Li Yueli was silent all of a sudden!

However, there is more than one person who is silent!

Ye Gucheng's feet that stayed in mid-air slowly withdrew from the threshold, he originally wanted to surprise Li Yue'er, but unexpectedly, Li Yue'er gave him a surprise instead, tightened the toy in his hand, smiled bitterly, and turned to leave, leaving the slave who didn't dare to squeak on the side.

I don't know how long it took, Li Yueli said softly: "Does Yue'er hate her brother-in-law?"

"Yue'er doesn't hate it, sister, Yue'er doesn't hate her brother-in-law!" Li Yue'er hurriedly shook her head.

"But you're afraid of your brother-in-law, aren't you?"

Li Yue'er couldn't help but bury her head.

"Yue'er is still young, she doesn't understand the world of adults! The world of adults, either you kill people, or people kill you!" Li Yueli stroked Li Yue'er's white hair, her movements were gentle, and her heart was miserable.

"But, sister, why do adults kill people in the world?" Li Yue'er didn't understand.

"Because, when you grow up, you have to live well! And to live well, you have to kill!" Li Yueli was tired of such a world, but she couldn't get rid of it.

"Don't grow up that Yue'er, don't kill Yue'er, sister, can you let your brother-in-law not kill people either?" Li Yue'er grabbed Li Yueli's hand with a pleading face,

Li Yueli was stunned for no reason, and said bitterly: "Yue'er, your brother-in-law can't help himself, and your brother-in-law doesn't want to kill anyone, it's just that they want to kill your brother-in-law." ”

Suddenly, Li Yueli had a little more tolerance and understanding of what Ye Gucheng had done, although she couldn't accept the other party's coldness and cruelty.

"No, they can't be allowed to hurt their brothers-in-law! Li Yue'er's eyes widened angrily.

Seeing this, Li Yueli laughed and said, "Then are you still afraid of your brother-in-law?"

"It's like... Not so scared anymore ... The more Li Yue'er spoke, the lower her head drooped.

"Yue'er, no matter what your brother-in-law has done, you have to believe that he is protecting us! Although the process is bloody and cruel, as long as your brother-in-law is here, no one can harm us. ”

"Hmm!" Li Yue'er nodded heavily, she never doubted this.

"So, promise my sister that you won't hide from your brother-in-law anymore, okay? Actually, your brother-in-law is also very bitter in his heart, so you have to spend more time with him. Li Yueli said as she spoke, her eyes gradually reddening.

"Okay! Yue'er promised her sister!" Li Yue'er was enlightened, and her heart disease subsided.

"This is my good moon!"

The sound of laughter soon resounded in the room.

Night, dark.

In the Taihe Palace, the candles were bright, and Li Yueli fidgeted and said, "Someone!"

A maid walked in.

"Can the commander go back to his palace and sleep?"

"After returning to the queen, according to the reports of the slaves, the commander has not yet been seen returning to the palace. ”

"Let's go down! If the commander returns to the palace, the speed will be reported. ”

"Obey!" The maid hurriedly retreated, of course, more helplessly, this sentence, Li Yueli has already explained five times!

It's no wonder that Li Yueli is in a hurry, since she learned that Ye Gucheng heard the conversation between her and Li Yue'er in Yiyue Pavilion, she was afraid that the other party would be sad, if it was too late today, and her husband had not returned to the palace for a long time, she couldn't tell where she would be sad alone.

Li Yueli saw that it was getting late and late, and the slave had not reported for a long time, knowing that her husband must not have returned to the palace, so she walked out of the palace quickly under anxiety.

In the back garden, in a remote place, two maids were whispering.

"You say, is the commander really from our clan?"

"Needless to say, it must be! Why do you ask?"

"I left the palace the day before yesterday, and I happened to hear my brother and colleagues talking at home, and they all said that the commander is not doing things like his clansmen, you know? The commander has degraded a lot of his clansmen in the past few days, and my brother was originally a captain of the Overseer, but now he has become a subordinate of his people. ”

"What's this? The military positions of the kingdom are all resided by capable people, and my father also boasts that the commander is the master!"

"What do you know? I heard them say that the commander is most likely not from our people, and that he is a native of the Northern Barbarian Lands, where he was also a chieftain, but he was mutinied, his family was killed, and they lied that the Xuanyuan people were using us to avenge him. ”

"Nonsense! Sister Hua, if you say this again, I will ignore you, the commander is our clan, and he is. ”

"Okay, okay! Sister Lian'er, sister don't talk about it, don't be angry!"

The two maids walked farther and farther, however, Li Yueli, who was standing in the shadows, was stunned.

On one side, the accompanying slave looked cautiously and did not dare to squeak.

After a long time, Li Yueli gradually evoked a hint of ridicule, and said indifferently: "Go back to the hall." ”

"Yes!" the maid bowed her head and followed.

Wolong Palace.

On the rockery, Ye Gucheng lay flat on the ground, looking up at the sky blankly, gloomy and dark, without a trace of starlight!

He always thought that no matter how dark the world was, there would always be a light on for him, so that he would not lose his direction.

It's a pity that all this is an illusion after all!

He has always been intolerable to the world!

The beloved woman can't forgive him, and now, even Li Yue'er is afraid of him!

The night breeze is slightly cool, far less cold than the heart!

For no reason, Ye Gucheng laughed at himself, tears gradually slipped down the corners of his eyes, touched the side, and muttered: "Ying Long, you say, do we belong to the same category, we are all the biggest fools in this world!"

The dragon-shaped wood carving nested quietly, cold and silent!

Ye Gucheng slowly looked sideways and continued to whisper: "If I had to choose again, I would rather die in the desert, at least, I am still me, and you can stay happily in the Dragon Valley." ”

Dragon's Nest.

Under the extreme deep cold, several giant fish swam and suddenly quickly turned around and fled.

In the dark shadows, the scaly eyelids suddenly opened.

North of Panyu City, thousands of miles away, there is a military camp.

The camp was quiet, except for the soldiers who patrolled from time to time, most of them fell asleep.

Woohoo!!

Several dark arrows burst out of the air.

On the guard tower, the soldiers standing guard at the gate of the camp were hit by arrows and fell to the ground.

With a wave of his hand, more than a thousand people quietly approached.

Soon, the patrol team in the battalion noticed the anomaly, and just as they wanted to go up to check, they were killed by a rain of arrows shooting at them.

The sudden movement finally alarmed the other patrols.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

A roar resounded through the camp.

"Kill!" Tuoba saw that his whereabouts were exposed, and he drew his sword and shouted.

The iron horsemen hidden in the shadows roared out, and despite the horses' hooves, the massive charge caused a tremor in formation.

Although the Chinese soldiers reacted quickly, most of them were in a state of awakening, and the enemy army was huge and fast, so there was no suspense about the outcome of the battle.

When the morning sun shone on the earth, the last soldier fell.

Tuoba Jue's face sank like water, stepping on the corpse, wading through the blood and water slowly.

"Report!" a herald quickly saluted: "Returning to the general, there are more than eight enemy troops here, all of them have been killed, and according to the general's orders, more than 3,000 pairs of armor have been found." ”

"Okay, let the soldiers put it on. ”

"Yes!"

On the side, the adjutant general saw the herald running away, hesitated, and said slowly: "General, there is something that my subordinates have always been unable to understand, and I don't know whether to ask or not!"

"Say it!"

"According to the plan, after our army captures Panyu City, it should make a detour to counterattack Fancheng to meet the combined forces of the two countries, why did the general go the opposite way and go deep alone?"

"Tuoba Fire, how many years have you been with General Ben?"

"General Hui, five years. ”

"Five years!" Tuoba Jue sighed lightly, "It seems that you haven't learned anything either!"

Tuoba was stunned.

"Huaxia, how can it be so easy to fight? What kind of royal power is declining, the country is chaotic, do you really think it exists?" Tuoba Jue coldly retracted his gaze and said with emotion: "Our army of 50,000 elites, carefully step by step, uprooted several military camps in Huaxia, killed tens of thousands of enemies, and none of them surrendered, have you ever seen such a soldier? Such a kingdom, if our army is head-to-head, I am afraid that the whole army will have already been wiped out!"

Tuoba Huo was suddenly shocked, and said in a lost voice: "General's intention, we were fooled?"

"If I am not mistaken, the main reinforcements of Huaxia must have arrived in Fancheng, and Li Yunlong and Chen Ping will be defeated. ”

Tuoba was shocked. "In that case, why didn't the general withdraw his troops?"

"Tuoba Huo, in your life, have you ever done anything earth-shattering, even if there is only one thing, that can impress the third prince and the people of the country talk about it?"

Tuoba Fire faced the scrutinizing gaze and lowered his head in shame.

"You don't, and neither does General Ben! However, there will be soon, as long as there is, our life will not be in vain!"

"What does the general mean?"

"Huaxia Wangdu, Ye Gucheng!" Tuoba Jue showed a fanatical gaze for the first time, and said in a deep voice: "Now, the main army of Huaxia is all outside, the royal capital has just experienced civil strife, and the army is empty, if our army takes advantage of the weakness to enter and capture the royal capital and take Ye Gucheng's head, you say, such a feat, throughout the ages, who can do it?"

"But general, the Huaxia army must follow and outflank all the way, how can our army break through the encirclement and reach the royal capital?"

"Therefore, I let the soldiers exchange armor with the enemy, so that the enemy must think that the elite of our army is broken here, and when it discovers the authenticity, our army has already broken out of the encirclement and gained the first opportunity. ”

Tuoba Fire suddenly fell silent, he knew that Tuoba had no intention of returning alive.

"Now, General Ben is one last step away, and this step needs you to complete. ”

"Please give the order of the general, and his subordinates will not give up!" Tuoba Huo saluted solemnly.

"I'll give you five thousand elite soldiers, and your mission, at all costs, to attract the attention of the Huaxia army, can you do it?"

"The subordinates will not disappoint the general, even if they fight to the death, they will buy time for the general. ”

"Okay!" Tuoba Jue patted Tuoba Huo's shoulder heavily, and said loudly: "If there is an afterlife, you and I will be brothers again!"

Tuoba Huo was moved for a while, and suddenly turned around and said, "Take care, general!"

The Nansheng army quickly divided its troops, and the 5,000 cavalry led by Tuoba Huo went straight to the township through the main road, while the more than 20,000 disguised soldiers and horses led by Tuoba Jue Qin marched towards the royal capital through the remote path.
