Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Covenant of Burning Incense, I bet you are my person

At that time, 10,000 soldiers in white robes were scattered and hidden in the snow outside the dense forest of Qiusaipo, waiting for Qiu Chulin to come.

Located to the east of Muman Mountain, surrounded by dense forests, Qiusaipo is an excellent terrain for ambushes, but it is not the best terrain choice.

The reason why Lime chose this place was to send a wrong message to Qiu Chulin, making him mistakenly think that the enemy was short of men and horses, and he needed to hide and ambush through the dense forest.

"County Lord, Qiu Chulin has arrived, but he didn't come alone, there are three thousand soldiers hidden in the dense forest and approaching Qiusaipo." One of the generals, Zhou Lei, replied.

"Inform He Peng and Zhang Shao, let them hide with their people, wait until the prey is in the trap, and then quietly close the net, and the actions are all based on fireworks, and they must not act rashly." Lime Road.

Of course, Qiu Chulin would not come to the appointment alone, and there would definitely be accompanying soldiers hiding in the shadows, so Lime ordered 10,000 soldiers to hide outside the dense forest of Qiusaipo, waiting for the opportunity to move.

When Qiu Chulin entered Qiusaipo, he fell into the trap she set for him.

The forest is covered with snow, Qiu Chulin is very conspicuous in black, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome and straight, if it is not for the sword in his hand, he should also be a beautiful son.

"General Qiu! You're finally here. Lime said, slowly walked out from the depths of the dense forest, and came to the Autumn Wind Pavilion, covering her face with a white veil, not revealing her true face, "The little woman has been waiting in this autumn slope since last night, the weather is cold, the general really told the little woman to wait!" ”

"Who are you?" The white veil covered his face, his posture was graceful, his voice was like a pearl and jade, and his voice was like a song, Qiu Chulin looked at the woman who came in front of him, and felt more and more familiar.

"Your nemesis." Lime smiled and smiled, her eyes glittering.

"A little girl, not small. You're not afraid that Ben will kill you? Qiu Chulin didn't laugh angrily, but his eyes were gloomy.

"Kill me, where does the general go to find the phoenix double fan?" Lime smiled, took a few steps forward, and the Canaan bamboo hanging from her waist also swayed gently with her steps, "Isn't the general here just for the phoenix?" ”

"As you said, Ben will come alone, what about the phoenix double fan?" Qiu Chulin said, his eyes had fallen on the woman's waist, he clenched the sword in his hand, and paid close attention to the movements around him.

"Is the general really coming alone?" Lime looked very surprised, she smiled innocently, and said to herself, "And where did the three thousand infantry lurking in the forest come from?" Forget it, don't care about him, since it wasn't brought by the general, there is no need for me to show mercy. ”

Before Lime could finish speaking, a firework rose into the air, and then the sound of fighting came from the dense forest on both sides of Qiusaipo.

The cold wind blew on her face, the veil of lime fluttered with the wind, she took a few steps back, and her tone was full of smiles, "It's cold and thin, it's really cold today, if you suffer from the cold, you have to toss for a few days." Since the general could not come alone as promised, the little woman did not accompany her. If the general is still interested in the phoenix double fan, then tomorrow will still be in this autumn slope, the old rule, the general comes alone, and the phoenix will be offered. ”

After Lime finished speaking, he turned around and entered the dense forest, and then several rows of archers appeared, holding arrows and crossbows, all facing Qiu Chulin, making it difficult for him to move an inch.

"General, let's go!" A soldier shouted at Qiu Chulin, but fell under the enemy's knife in the next instant.

The sound of the handover of blades was endless, and the 3,000 soldiers he brought were fighting desperately with the enemy, but he could not save anyone.

There is a crossbow array in front, and there are ambushes on the left and right, Qiu Chulin has only one way to retreat, and this road is that three thousand soldiers fought hard to resist and fought for him with their lives.

Once he is surrounded by enemy troops, Shuo Chu will be on the back foot and he will have to leave.

Qiu Chulin's eyes burned with raging anger, this revenge is not a gentleman.

The sound of soldiers fighting in her ears gradually weakened, and when Lime was about to go to check the battle situation, Zhou Lei hurriedly ran towards her.

"County Lord, Qiu Chulin has already gone away, is he really not chasing?" Zhou Lei asked.

"Let him go." Lime said, "What is the situation of our casualties?" ”

"The county lord is like a god with soldiers, and the enemy was caught off guard in this battle, and we won a complete victory." Zhou Lei replied excitedly, "Our casualties are very light, the county lord doesn't have to worry!" ”

"Hurry up and bandage the wounded, and the others will go to clear the battlefield and arrange the dense forest according to the method I taught you." Lime said, she paused, her eyes were a little gloomy, and said, "If you have leisure, bury all the dead." ”

She was a healer, but she buried 3,000 lives with her own hands.

The cold wind of Qiu Saipo was very cold, and it hurt her face and blew her heart cold.

Qiu Chulin suffered such a great humiliation in this autumn Saipo, and he will not give up.

In the future, at the latest, he will definitely lead his troops to come and thoroughly search and sweep Qiusaipo, and she must leave the dense forest with these ten thousand soldiers before dark.

In less than three moments, Qiu Chulin led 15,000 soldiers to make a comeback.

The dense forest was silent, and suddenly a sharp arrow shot out of the forest without warning, flying straight towards Qiu Chulin's face. At the last moment, he quickly drew his sword and cut off the sharp arrow.

"The dense forest is really small, and since the general wants to lead his troops here, I will give up the land with the general."

Qiu Chulin had a gloomy face, put the note in his sleeve, and said coldly, "Go into the dense forest, search carefully, and dig three feet into the ground to find her!" ”

Qiu Chulin gave an order, and the soldiers behind him scattered into the dense forest to search.

The snow in the forest was quite deep, and there was a fear of an ambush, so the soldiers advanced slowly. After an hour of searching, there was nothing unusual in the forest, and the soldiers gradually let down their guard.

There was an arrow hanging in front of the Autumn Wind Pavilion, and a note was tied to the arrow. A soldier stepped forward to remove the arrow and handed the note to Qiu Chulin.

"Read." Qiu Chulin said.

The soldier opened the note, was shocked, and handed it over again tremblingly, "Belong...... The subordinates did not dare. ”

Qiu Chulin frowned slightly, he looked at the soldier with trembling hands suspiciously, and took the note.

"With the sky as the coffin and the earth as the coffin, a generation of famous generals died in Qiusaipo, starting from arrogance and ignorance."

Qiu Chulin looked at the words on the note, not angry, let alone losing his cool.

He folded the note and put it in his sleeve, while looking around at the dense forest, looking for something unusual, "Pass my command, stop advancing, stay on the spot, stay on guard, and send a small team to explore the way first." ”

As soon as Qiu Chulin's words fell, before the advance team made a move, many arrows and crossbows instantly popped out of the snow under the dense forest, and before everyone could react, the sharp arrows that flew out had already intertwined into a rain of arrows, and the sharp arrows from all directions made people have nowhere to hide, and for a while, the screams were continuous, and many soldiers fell down suddenly.

The rain of arrows lasted for about a stick of incense, and there were no sharp arrows on the crossbows, and the dense forest became very silent again. Just when all the soldiers thought it was over, three thousand blades flew from all directions of the dense forest.

By the time this round of slashing came to an end, nearly half of the soldiers' casualties had already been lost.

Qiu Chulin's face was tense, and the arm holding the sword also burst into muscles. Later, many blades were all engraved with the word "Chu", which was the weapon of the 3,000 soldiers who died here in the morning.

At this moment, Lime with 10,000 soldiers is waiting outside the dense forest.

"Back to the county lord, nearly half of the enemy casualties were killed, and Qiu Chulin was hit by an arrow in his left arm. Now a small team is being sent to explore the way, and the rest of the people are still waiting in place. Zhou Lei said.

"Shen Shi is almost over, and it will take at least an hour for them to get out of this dense forest. In winter, the days are short and the nights are long, and the sky will gradually darken. Lime said, "Let the brothers take advantage of this time to rest, tonight will not be easy." ”

As long as you survive tonight and contain Qiu Chulin here, everything can be solved.

The Shuochu camp is a night's journey from Muman Mountain, even if Qiu Chulin transfers troops from the camp to Muman Mountain before leaving, and comes and goes, at least tomorrow afternoon. And now at the foot of Mu Man Mountain, there are only more than 12,000 people guarding it, as long as this plan is successful, my brother can be rescued.

As the sun set, the sky had already darkened, and several torches were gradually lit outside the dense forest. Halfway through the unitary hour, Qiu Chulin finally came out of the dense forest, and of the 15,000 elite soldiers he brought, there were only more than 8,000 left.

He was facing Lime and the nearly 10,000 soldiers behind her.

"It turns out that General Qiu Da is a person who doesn't like to follow the rules." The lime is dressed in a fox fur, covered with a white veil, and under the light of the fire, it looks particularly mysterious.

"You're good, what's your name?" Qiu Chulin asked, at this moment, his arrow wound had not been treated, and the blood was dripping down his arm, turning the thick snow on the ground.

"My name is worthy only to be known by the living." Lime smiled.

"Don't think that Ben General doesn't know what you're doing, you want to hold me back and let Fang Jinyue take the opportunity to break through. But don't forget, the snow covers the mountains, the weather is cold, Fang Jinyue has no rice and no food, even if he can survive, I'm afraid he won't have the strength to break through. Qiu Chulin said, "You have successfully dragged me for a day, and in the future, Ben will not let you succeed again." ”

"The general's wound has not been treated, even if you want to fight, you must first bandage the wound, the little woman has good wound medicine and muslin here, and she is willing to give it to the general to heal." Lime said, pointing to the wooden plate that Jing Chuchu was holding in his hand.

"No need, keep your medicine for yourself." Qiu Chulin said.

"The general doesn't believe me?" Lime asked, and she immediately called a soldier and personally rebandaged the soldier with the bottle of wound medicine, "Is the general credible this time?" ”

"In this case, it is not easy for the general to refuse the girl's kindness, but unfortunately there is no doctor who knows how to bandage among the generals. Seeing that the girl is skillful, how about the girl bandaging the general? Qiu Chulin said. If there is a problem with the medicine, he can control the woman as soon as possible and force out the antidote.

"It is the honor of the little woman that the general can be trusted, and the little woman will naturally not shirk, Chu Chu, come with me." Lime said, and walked towards Qiu Chulin's place.

"There's Miss Lao." Qiu Chulin said.

Lime came to Qiu Chulin, examined his wounds, glanced at the many soldiers behind him who were guarding her with swords, and chuckled, "I'm just here to bandage you, general, and I'm not doing anything bad, what are you doing so nervous?" ”

Qiu Chulin was injured in his upper arm, and his blood-stained sleeves were stuck around the wound, and he needed to cut his clothes to bandage the wound.

Lime picked up the dagger prepared in the wooden plate, and just as he was about to make a move, he was grabbed by Qiu Chulin's wrist, "What are you doing?" ”

"The clothes are glued to the wounds, and you can't treat the wounds without cutting them off." Lime looked directly at him and replied earnestly.

Qiu Chulin stared at her clear eyes for a long time, and finally slowly let go of her wrist and watched her continue to treat her wounds.

The arrow wound was completely exposed until the lime had removed the clothing that had stuck to the wound, and the wound was not very deep, but it had not been treated for a long time and was stained with a lot of dirt.

The lime took water and soaked it in a muslin cloth, carefully wiped the wound clean, and then applied the wound medicine and bandaged it with a muslin cloth, "This bottle of wound medicine will be given to the general." ”

"What are you doing this for?" Qiu Chulin took the medicine bottle, looked at it by the firelight for a long time, and then put it into his arms, he carefully looked at the woman in front of him who he couldn't see through, and there was another layer of doubt in his eyes.

"For the sake of the son, for the sake of the 10,000 soldiers behind me, I will exchange a fair chance for the general to fight a fair battle." Lime met his eyes without the slightest hint of timidity.

"I promise you." Qiu Chulin replied briskly, "You and I have the grace of giving medicine to heal your wounds, I will give you a stick of incense time, and when the incense burns out, I will not show mercy." If I catch you and abandon Fang Jinyue, will you follow me? ”

"If I capture the general, the general will retreat from the garrison under Muman Mountain, and let the prince return to Yanya City to face off head-on, how about it?" Lime didn't answer the rhetorical question.

"Okay." Qiu Chulin said loudly, "Come on, burn incense!" ”

Lime sat firmly on the horse's back, and when the incense first burned, he took 10,000 soldiers and went away.

"County Lord, my subordinates don't understand, why didn't Qiu Chulin strike while the iron was hot when he led his troops out of the dense forest, and killed him in one fell swoop! Why give him a respite? He Peng asked.

"The courage of the mourning soldiers, it is unstoppable, although we have the advantage, but the odds of victory are not great, Qiu Chulin is a famous general, and his subordinates are naturally elite soldiers, once there is a case, it will be troublesome." "What's more, our purpose is only to hold him back, not to take his life." ”

Half an hour later, at a fork in the road, Lime divided 10,000 soldiers into two roads, abandoning their armor all the way, and pretending to flee to the north; The footprints along the way were messy, pretending to flee south.

And he only took a few dozen dead soldiers with him, all the way to the Beiluo River in the east.
