345, chaotic flat
Jiang Xuan didn't believe the words of the messenger soldier at first.
When she didn't see Lin Yi in the handsome tent, she was upset!
She got out of the handsome tent and continued to look in several other places, but she still didn't see Lin Yi.
She suddenly remembered that when the soldier said that it could also be her father, the whole person was not very good.
She went back to the camp tent, broke the bun on her head and tied it into a ponytail and tied it behind her head, Biyun and Biwan stepped forward one after another,
"Mother, you want to go to war?"
"I'm going to get them back." Jiang Xuan said, walked to the table, tied the sleeve crossbow that Lin Yi gave her, and hung a bag of arrows around her waist.
"Whether it's Changsheng or something happens to my father, I'm afraid."
"The slave and maid went with the mother." Biyun and Biwan armed themselves together.
Jiang Xuan waved his hand, "Bi Wan follow me, Bi Yun, you go to the other places in the tent to look for it, see if the emperor is there, and tell him." ”
She paused for a moment, then added, "Forget it, don't look for it." ”
No matter what, she went to the battlefield, Lin Yi went to him, she could go to him, fight side by side with him, whether he or her father was injured, she could bring them back.
If he didn't go, it was the best. But if he knows that he is on the battlefield, it will be inappropriate to chase him when the time comes.
However, she still let Biyun stay in the tent, so that she could also provide cover.
As soon as she got out of the camp, she ran into Xu Bin, and when she saw Jiang Xuan dressed in military uniform, it was clear that she was going to the battlefield, Xu Bin was surprised,
"...... Are you going to the battlefield? ”
Jiang Xuan nodded slightly.
"It's too dangerous for you to go." Xu Bin pursed his lips and stopped in front of her.
Jiang Xuan raised his head, looked at his serious eyes, frowned, and said, "I am not related to Xu Shizi, so I don't need the care of Shizi." ”
She lowered her eyes, along the way, she knew that Xu Bin and the Xu family were different, otherwise she would not be standing here now.
But she still couldn't help it, she was angry, and she couldn't help clenching her fists.
Xu Bin knew from those later wounded soldiers how Jiang Xuan led everyone to resist the enemy at that time, and she was on the city wall, wielding a long sword, killing every Northern Barbarian soldier who tried to climb the city wall in vain.
She was different from any girl he had ever seen, she was the most peculiar existence.
How can he not love her like this?
Xu Bin had all kinds of things in his heart, Jiang Xuan didn't notice it, she raised her hand, "Please also ask Xu Shizi to get out of the way, don't hinder the palace!" ”
She laid out her identity.
Xu Bin understood what she meant, and the sourness spread in his heart, and he lowered his head and said, "If you want to go, please allow me to follow, otherwise, I won't get out of the way." ”
Jiang Xuan smiled, "Xu Bin, I don't need you to accompany me." ”
She opened her mouth flatly, looking at the person in front of her with her head down, and a lot flashed through her mind.
Xu Bin stared at her, and his heart ached a little, but he was at a loss, so he could only bow his head and say,
"Yes, I know, in some ways I am not qualified to say anything, my family, it is wrong, I can make amends, sooner or later the sin will be atoned for."
"In this life, I won't lie to you, I won't hurt you, I can guard you where you can't see."
"I don't need your return."
Jiang Xuan chuckled, bypassed him, and walked straight forward.
It doesn't matter if Xu Bin is behind or not.
There was not too far from the camp they were stationed in to the battlefield ahead, and Jiang Xuan took advantage of the rain and the darkness of the night to quickly touch it.
The infantry attacked the city, and the archers covered them in the back, and when those archers saw Jiang Xuan, the archers who knew her were immediately shocked,
"Mother, why did you come here, it's too dangerous here, go back to the camp quickly."
Jiang Xuan didn't speak, but looked at the side of the city wall, the night passed, the sky was numb, and on the wall, the people and horses of the two sides were still fighting together, and the city gate was opened without telling the soldier who gave the order.
The counterinsurgency army was still violently rushing towards the wall, and on the city tower, Jiang Xuan saw a familiar face, a young man in armor.
That was the man of the Xu family, who had always been famous for his gentleness in the capital, but now he was calmly commanding the rebels to fight against the rebels in the imperial court.
Jiang Xuan crossed the bunker where the archers were stationed and walked towards the city wall.
Behind him, Xu Bin and Bi Wan followed lightly.
Behind her, guarding her.
From time to time, Xu Bin helped her block the stray arrows that came down from the wall.
Later, when the archer saw her rushing out, he immediately adjusted the arrow path to the direction of Jiang Xuan's advance, and covered her together!
Jiang Xuan rushed to the base of the wall and climbed up the ladder that had been erected, her feet hooked on the ladder, and she took out an arrow with a bow, and the arrow flew towards the children of the Xu family who commanded on the wall.
After one arrow is out, the second one follows, and one misses, and the latter goes straight through the opponent's throat.
Before the man of the Xu family fell, he looked at the arrow in disbelief, his eyes were bulging, and then his body fell, like an air-dried sausage, hanging on the wall.
The commander of the wall died, the rebels were slightly chaotic, Jiang Xuan quickly climbed up the wall, the arrows in the bag on his waist were quickly reduced, and the rebels on the wall also fell one by one.
Jiang Xuan calmly and calmly shot arrows again and again, and the arrows were not missing, and the branches hit the target.
She has no distractions, Xu Bin and Bi Wan behind her are her best protective umbrellas, and the counter-rebels behind her also surround her to protect her when they see her coming up.
When she went down the city tower and arrived in the city, there was a big scuffle in front of her, shouting and fighting everywhere, and there was flying flesh and blood everywhere, she did not hesitate, but rushed directly to the city gate, rushed over, and wanted to open the city gate.
When they arrived at the gate, there were already soldiers dressed in rebel uniforms facing the boulder in front of the gate.
This is the order of Uncle Xu, the city gate is sealed with a big stone, you can't enter or go out!
The soldier in the rebel uniform was a scout who had infiltrated the city earlier.
Seeing the big stone, Jiang Xuan also understood why the scouts successfully entered the city, but the city gate was not opened in time.
This is also the reason why the rebels did not put many people at the gates.
With such a boulder, it is difficult for the siege wood outside to break through at all, and at the same time, even if someone inside wants to open it, it is very difficult.
Old Uncle Xu is worthy of being a person who has not moved his nest in the position of the secretary of the Ministry of War for decades. Anything has already been thought of.
Such a person should be a thief!
"Grass, why are you here?" A man with a big beard came over, saw Jiang Xuan, and blurted out.
This person who spoke wildly was none other than Jiang Chong.
The counter-rebel army entered the city and began street fighting, but there were few people who came up, and it must be that they could not carry the counter-rebel army, and it happened that a soldier came to report that the city gate was blocked, and he hurried over to see the situation, but he did not expect to see the person who should not appear on the battlefield.
If you care, it's messy!
As soon as Jiang Xuan arrived at the place where the archers were armed, he knew that he was concerned about it.
Obviously, he had already thought about it very clearly, but he still couldn't help but run towards the battlefield.
She wiped the rain from her face and smiled brightly at Jiang Chong.
Since there is a boulder inside the door, you can't go out, and you can't knock the door open for a while, so it's better to change the direction.
Jiang Xuan said his thoughts to Jiang Chong loudly, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, Jiang Chong instructed his men to go to the wall and order the soldiers who were attacking the city outside to retreat from outside the city gate, move the siege wood, and hit the city gate from the inside out.
Originally, the rebels' side had the weakest defense at the city gate, and they were confident that the imperial army would not be able to conquer that side for the time being.
Seeing that Jiang Chong sent someone to bang on the door from the inside out, "Strictly guard the city gate!" "There are rebel generals shouting to stop them.
The two sides are like two waves fighting each other, sometimes this tide rushes over, sometimes the tide pushes over, the iron armor rubs, the weapons resonate, the heavy smell of blood spreads, and the rain runs down the head, face, body, and falls into the mud under the feet, making this human killing more like a demon carnival.
After Jiang Chong saw Jiang Xuan on the field, it was too late to send her out at this time, so he could only let her follow closely by his side.
Jiang Xuan was very obedient, and behind him, he shot the rebels with a bow and arrow in his hand.
As they went, the corpses on the ground piled up more and more, piled higher and higher, and their faces still had the expression of pain, horror, or ferocity before death.
Such is the cruelty of war.
The shock of these scenes will be unforgettable for the rest of their lives.
The battle lasted for a day and a night, from the city walls, to the city, and then to the place where the rebels were stationed.
No one found any trace of Old Uncle Xu, not even Nada, the prince of the Northern Barbarians.
Perhaps, when they were fighting, they left, perhaps, they did not stay in Fengling City.
Outside, there were rebels resisting, Jiang Chong stood at the top, raised his arms and shouted,
"Listen to the rebel soldiers, your generals have fled, leaving you here to make senseless sacrifices."
"You are also the people of Dongli, and your parents and brothers have also stayed in Dongli, you can be good people, why should you be a traitor to those who have abandoned you and fled alone?
As long as you lay down your weapons, you will still be the people of the East! The court will not hold you accountable for being deceived. ”
The effect of mental blows is often astonishingly huge, and the rebels who had been fighting to the death heard that the leader had fled, and their spirits immediately withered.
Some put down their weapons, and some have a tendency to weaken even if they are still resisting.
There was a loud bang at the city gate, it was the gate of Fengling City that was knocked open, and the court army outside rushed in.
From the moment the imperial army rushed into the city gate, the situation that had just been stalemate was one-sided.
This one was won!
It's all over!
The overall situation has been decided, Jiang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes followed the torrent of the imperial court to quell the rebels and looked at the continuous roofs in the distance, the high spires, and the gray sky.
The sound of the fight grew weaker and farther away, and only the noisy sound of rain remained in my ears.
I don't know how long it took, in the blurry rain and fog, a person walked out of her, walked towards her step by step, walked in front of her, carefully looked at her face, and body, and finally, reached out and touched her, and then exhaled heavily.
He crouched down and patted himself on the shoulder, "Come up." ”
Jiang Xuan didn't speak, but jumped lightly, jumped on his back, and put his hand around his neck.
He didn't blame, just stepped on a firm step, carried her step by step, out of Fengling City, through the position, and walked towards the rear camp.
"I was wrong!" After a long time, Jiang Xuan apologized softly.
He listened and rubbed her ass, "It's all over!" ”
"Well, it's over!" Jiang Xuan said.
His back was too broad, and his steps were too steady, like the best harbor, making Jiang Xuan drowsy.
In the fog, she was carried back to the camp, and in the haze, someone helped her change her wet clothes, and the wounds were medicated.
She was tired and sleepy, thinking that in this way, she could enter the warm bed and sleep peacefully.
Unexpectedly, just as she wanted to climb into the bed, she was caught, and her big hands were fixed on her waist, and her posture was very shameful.
She muttered, "I'm tired, I don't want to, I'm going to sleep." ”
There was a chuckle in her ear, and then her pants were dropped, and then there was a 'pop' sound, and she was beaten!
That delicate buttocks have never been punished like this!
What sleepiness, what sleepy insects, all ran out of the clouds at this moment.
Jiang Xuan opened his misty eyes, suddenly came back to his senses, covered his beaten buttocks with his hands, and turned over.
saw Lin Yi, who was silently carrying her back all the way, looking at her with a gloomy face.
"How did you get to the battlefield? Didn't you stay in the camp well? ”
"I thought you and my dad had an accident, so I thought I was going to save you!" Jiang Xuan is indeed ashamed of this.
"Why are you all right? Which eye saw that something had happened to me and your father? Don't you know that the rumors of wartime are the most and the least credible? ”
Lin Yi grabbed her and slapped her ass twice.
Jiang Xuan screamed.
This is clearly the treatment that only children will receive when they are punished, she is not a child!
However, she was a little weak-hearted, just screamed twice, hung her head, and was ready to accept Lin Yi's teachings like a little daughter-in-law.
"I want to ask the soldier who passed the message how he did it."
"No need!" Lin Yi said slowly, "I've been dragged out and beheaded, and my head will still be hanging on the pole outside." ”
Jiang Xuan immediately sat up and looked up at him.
"Humph!" Lin Yi glared at her, "No matter what the purpose of that person is, such rumors are disturbing the morale of the army, and this is an unforgivable crime!" ”
"Moreover, your father didn't tell you that you can't believe the news from the side of the war, not to mention that the soldier returned to the camp without permission, he is a deserter, even if what he said is true, then he will be beheaded."
"To behead him for public display is to warn the other soldiers not to provoke military prestige and not to harbor ill intentions."
He glanced at Jiang Xuan again, "When you return to Beijing, you can make up for your brains!" ”
Jiang Xuan secretly grabbed the quilt and quietly covered his body, "I was wrong!" When I go back to Beijing, I will make up for my brain! ”
At this time, you must not confront the person in front of you, otherwise, your ass will bloom.
These words made Lin Yi angry and wanted to laugh again.
At night, because of the heavy rain, something happened to the barracks near the foot of the mountain, he took someone over to take a look, and when he came back, he found that Jiang Xuan was gone, and then looked at Biyun's appearance, knowing that Jiang Xuan had gone to the battlefield.
He wanted to rush to her immediately, but he was the commander of the first army and couldn't leave at this time. I can only be patient and wait until the end of the war to go to the city.
When he saw her standing there blankly, his face darkened again, and he felt that his eyes were extremely dry, he closed his eyes, calmed down for a moment, and those shocked, distressed emotions passed, and anger surged up.
The more angry he was, the calmer his heart became.
I wanted to go back to the camp to reason with her, but I didn't expect her to be fine, like a nobody, she said something wrong, so she wanted to lie down and sleep peacefully, regardless of his heart that had been tormented all night.
He was furious, raised his hand and slapped her ass twice.
It's just that when I saw her face, my heart softened again, as long as she was safe, it was more important than anything else.
He whispered to Jiang Xuan, "In the future, don't do this again, I really ...... when I heard your girl say that you went to the battlefield."
He leaned over, approached Jiang Xuan, held her shoulders with both hands, the strength in his hands was very strong, and he moved his lips, but he couldn't speak.
Just looked straight at her, his voice hoarse, "Do you understand what I mean?" ”
The clothes on his body were still wet, because he only cared about helping her change her clothes and apply medicine, during this time, the originally plump and handsome man became thin on his cheeks and a blue stubble on his chin.
She understands, and it is precisely because she understands that she feels empty-hearted.
She didn't care that his clothes were still wet, and gently hugged him back, giving a low 'um'.
He rubbed her head, "Sleep." ”
"When it is dealt with here, the matter of arresting Xu Ye will be handed over to your father, and we will go back to Beijing."
After speaking, he kissed her eyebrows, let her lie down, and helped her cover the quilt before going to change her clothes.
……
At this time, Uncle Xu was like a lost dog, and when he saw that the momentum was wrong, he escaped from Fengling City under the cover of his personal guards.
He has been dormant for decades, and he has always had the idea of creating a great cause, but he didn't expect that the invincible Xu Jiajun stopped when he arrived in Fengling.
He didn't expect the dream of a great cause to die so quickly.
He knew that Jiang Xuan was in Anjiakou, so he instructed the people of the Northern Barbarians to besiege the city, and at the same time pulled three ambushes on the road to prevent reinforcements from coming to the rescue.
Whether it's capturing Jiang Xuan or killing Jiang Xuan. This will deal a blow to Lin Yi, who leads the army, and at that time, they will surround and destroy the army led by Lin Yi.
At that time, even if there are still soldiers and horses in the imperial court, they will not be able to stop him from attacking the capital.
It's just that Nada's waste didn't accomplish anything, and so many people went in, fortunately, it was all from the Northern Barbarians.
What's even worse is that he also got the news that his grandson, the grandson who has always given high hopes, actually defected to the imperial army!
In his plan, he let his powerful grandson enter Beijing in order to paralyze the court, and then he will find a way to rescue him.
Unexpectedly, he actually took refuge in the imperial court!
Thinking of this, Old Uncle Xu hated and annoyed!
He instructed the people around him, "Start the dark chess that remains by the side of the prince!" ”
The man hesitated, "Old lady, do you have to do this?" ”
Dark chess starts, don't do anything else, just kill Xu Bin!
Old Uncle Xu said coldly, "This must be done, I, Xu Ye, don't hate anyone, the most hated is the betrayer!" ”
Although, he himself is a traitor!
"Maybe it's not a bad thing for the prince to take refuge in the imperial court, and when the time comes, he will always be able to get a little life for the female dependents in the capital! Perhaps, this is also the intention of the prince. ”
The subordinate thought about it, but persuaded again.
"Hmph, what kind of life do the ladies need? As long as we are defeated, do you think they will survive?
Besides, all the men of the Xu family are dead, what do you want those ladies to do? Let them live to remarry? ”
"After the death of the prince, none of the ladies in the capital remained! Remember! ”
Old Uncle Xu glanced at his subordinates coldly, and instructed indifferently.
"Yes." The subordinates were heartbroken and bowed their heads and promised.
……
Jiang Xuan was lying on the bed, watching Lin Yi change clothes in the corner, coupled with the warmth of the quilt, her heart gradually relaxed, about, where he was, she was the most relaxed.
She closed her eyes and fell asleep slowly, and when she was half-asleep, she was called up by Lin Yi and drank a bowl of ginger soup.
When I woke up again, it was already evening, and the rain outside had stopped.
She staggered to the handsome tent, and only Lin Yi was there, "Are you awake?" ”
Lin Yi beckoned to her.
Jiang Xuan saw that there were no other people in the tent, so he sat opposite him and asked, "What about my father?" Haven't come back yet? ”
"They are in the city, arrange post-war affairs," Lin Yi pulled her to her side and sat down.
"The corpses in Fengling City need to be disposed of, weapons and equipment need to be recovered, and after cleaning, they will have to put up a list to let those fleeing people come back and resume their daily lives, anyway, there are a lot of things."
Jiang Xuan nodded, it seems that it will take a long time to return to Beijing.
"How's the rebels doing?" She asked again.
"Those who stubbornly resist are killed, those who surrender are tied up, and those who flee are being chased." He was a little regretful, "It's a pity that Xu Ye was not caught and let him escape, your father has already sent someone to chase him." ”
"The guy who was pulled out by Xu Ye and said that he was the orphan of his father and the emperor committed suicide in fright, the rebels are now left with Xu Ye's share, and it is only a matter of time before they are completely cleaned up, and then they can also deal with the people of the world."
Xu Ye's main force was scattered, and the reinforcements sent by the Beiban side were also scattered in Anjiakou, as for Nanyan's side, Murong Han had already controlled the situation, and it would be difficult for Murong Hui to send reinforcements to Xu Ye again.
The rebellion of the Xu family has come to an end.
However, if the grass is not eradicated, in the future, who knows if there will be some mess, so Xu Ye must find it.
Jiang Xuan pondered where Xu Ye and the others would flee to.
After the rain stopped, the sky cleared, but the leaves on the trees were not left by the rain, and finally, it was winter.
Except for Jiang Xuan, everyone is very busy, Lin Yi is in Fengling City to preside over the restoration of normal life in the city, and the new officials are still on their way to their posts, and they will not be finished until the time of handover.
Jiang Chong led people to find Xu Ye's traces, hoping to arrest Xu Ye as soon as possible.
Jiang Xuan also moved from the tent to the city, cleaned up a courtyard of the mansion, and stayed temporarily.
On this day, Jiang Chong came to Jiang Xuan and went straight to the point.
"Ah Xuan, do you want to go back to Beijing first? Regardless of inside or outside the palace, everyone is very worried about the news of your departure from Beijing, although you left a letter when you left Beijing, but in the end the empress dowager is also old, the queen is good, but in the end she is not her daughter-in-law.
The emperor is out now, do you want to ......?"
Jiang Xuan didn't refute, and nodded very obediently, "Dad, if you catch Xu Ye, you must let him return to Beijing alive, I promised Zhu'er to let her see Xu Ye die with her own eyes." ”
Jiang Chong didn't have a good impression of the three Xu's mother and son, and when he recognized the two, he just felt that the child was innocent.
But Jiang Xuan's request would not fail to agree, so he nodded, "I know, I will arrange manpower for you, and escort you back to Beijing when the time comes." ”
