On the fifth day of the fourth month, the Turkic Huma camp dispatched 50,000 soldiers and horses to retaliate, and there were many battles, and thousands of dead souls were added to the west of Hailan Pao City.

In early to mid-April, the Far East thawed, muddy, and the grain routes were not smooth, and the Turkic army had to retreat to Khuma. The Yantang side has not yet assembled a large army, and only a few Zhichong Mansions from the Heishui Governor's Mansion have arrived, and they have no spare strength to pursue.

In those days of battle, the three little ladies really saw the cruelty of the war, the war maniac was almost beheaded by Nakoerkut, Zhao Yong was seriously injured, the captain of the Temple Street Zhichong Mansion was killed in the battle, the patriarch of the western Far East Ridge Wu Sukemeng was killed, the Heishui Army was killed or injured by a Zhichong captain, and the Yantang side lost nearly 3,000 men and horses.

Dugu Tianxing was impatient with Dugu Daduhu's repeated orders and reprimands, and began to sweep in the direction of Aldan with his men and horses in advance.

In those days, there were casualties of people I knew every day, and the city was full of wounded soldiers, and the three little ladies recorded their names one by one, and even Wang Jiangnan couldn't help but cry a few times.

Zheng Sui'er silently looked at the towering monument, and the sad voice of Dugu Tianxing during the memorial recalled to her ears again:

Loyal souls, green mountains and fertile soil. For the rest of his life, he was sentimental.

March in the world, the sky is bright. Chat and send condolences, Fu Wei is still feasting!

Duan Yun saw that the three little ladies had solemn faces and sad expressions, and he couldn't help but restrain their descriptions. The third princess and Ximen Ying dismounted with the guards, bowed three times in the direction of the monument, and ignored them for a long time before getting on their horses and leaving.

Although Duan Yun was covered by clouds and mountains, he was embarrassed to inquire in detail, Wang Jiangnan sighed and said: "Here are the 30,000 soldiers who died in the battle of Hailan Pao in the sixth year of Shenlong, and everyone's name is on the tablet, and another 3,000 were added in April this year, and I don't know how many more names will be added in the future." ”

Duan Yun was silent, dismounted and bowed three times.

The name given by the imperial court of the Far Eastern War is Zhengmohe, Shan Sijing is the general manager of the camp in the east of Zhengmohe, and the station is located in the middle of Hailan Pao Central Street, and the roof is fluttering in the wind, and the eight generals at the door are guarding the eight leopard tail red military gate flags, and the military academy verifies the military cards of the three princesses and their line.

Xingyuan is a three-entry courtyard, and when he enters the courtyard for the first time, he listens to the general manager in the lobby roaring, "He Li Heitou can't wait to grab the credit?" Do you know how many people are still in Hailan Bubble now? You hurry up and chase after him, if you don't go back to the city before sunset, I want his head. ”

"The general is angry, and the last general will go, but hasn't this forbidden army already arrived? The strength of Hailan Bubble's guards should be sufficient. ”

"Expect them to ban the army? Are you Ding Dayong the first day of being a soldier? ”

The third princess and her entourage entered the lobby, just in time for the chief manager Shan to reprimand Ding Dayong, the deputy governor of the Heishui Governor's Mansion, and when the chief manager saw the third princess coming in, he didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly, "Deputy Chief Yan, how many people have arrived in Hailan now?" ”

"Because of the muddy roads, only 2,800 people from Zhichong Mansion arrived in Hailan today," Yan Qiong, the deputy head of the camp of Zhengmohe East Road, Yan Junluan was a little embarrassed.

Shan Sijing looked at Ding Dayong, looking like you know, Ding Dayong hurriedly handed over, "The last general will go and chase back Deputy Chief Li"

There is a big chief and three deputy chiefs in the camp of Zhengmohe East Road, Yan Qiong, the general of Weiwei Yunlu, Li Xiancheng, Li Heitou, the governor of Heishui Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and Pei Xuangui, the deputy governor of Andong Metropolitan Protector's Mansion.

Chief Shan looked at Deputy Chief Manager Yan, and he was not polite, "Deputy Chief Yan, when will the Right Guard Forbidden Army all arrive at Hailan Pao?" ”

"This... It's about ten days or so."

"For five days, you will personally supervise and supervise, if you don't go to the camp for five days, the military law will be engaged."

"Yes," the third princess Yanqiong had to take the order.

"Zheng Shen Military, Wang Shen Military, you should sort it out immediately, many military orders will be issued"

"General Yan, which Zhechong Mansion have you arrived at?"

"It's Qin Chongdu's Zhichong Mansion"

"Huazhou Dao Cavalry Army?" In fact, the general manager of Shan knew it when he saw his grandson and nephew Duan Yun.

"Exactly"

"Let them tidy up today and leave for Aldan tomorrow"

"Yes"

"Deputy Lieutenant Dugu, how many men did you bring this time?" The single manager turned to the solitary ball again.

"There are 500 people in a certain department"

"Okay, you take your men and horses to lead the way for Youweiwei tomorrow, if you meet people from the thirteen departments of the Far East on the road, you can bring them all, and rush to meet your Dugu Duwei within three days, is there a problem?"

"No problem"

"Third princess, I should have given you the wind and dust, but the military affairs are urgent, and there are sentinels who report that there is an abnormal movement in the Turks in the Ma side, and we are now less than 30,000 people in Hailanpao, so everyone must hurry up to arrange the city defense, the hospitality is not good, and there are many slackness."

"Military affairs are important, and the single manager does not have to be polite"

"Okay, the city defense has me and Deputy Chief Pei, and your main task now is to urge the forbidden army to enter the city."

"Compliance"

As a result, the Right Guard Forbidden Army, which had only been in Hailan for only one day, was about to set off in a hurry again.

Qin Chong couldn't help but worry when he looked at his exhausted generals, and looked up at the sky, the weather turned cloudy today, and the clouds were thick.

Dugu Qiuqiu was still sitting in his big car, and Duan Yun was complaining about the hurry of the trip next to the car. Dugu Qiuqiu smiled and didn't answer, and after a while, he took out a marinated chicken leg from the car and threw it to him, finally blocking the mouth of Duan Yun, the commander of Guo Yi, for a while.

Before the chicken leg was finished, Duan Yun began to nag again: "I heard that Hailan soaked in the sixth year of the Divine Dragon Great War, and your great magician Tianxing Duwei performed the great spell of the Blood Carving Ice Dragon?" Take me on a tour of the site? ”

Dugu Qiuqiu didn't answer, and rushed to Qin Chongnu's mouth.

Duan Yun asked, "Is it far from here?" ”

"It's not very far, it's a half mile detour"

"That's good," Duan Yun shouted at Qin Chong, "Captain Qin, how about we go visit the ancient battlefield?" It also gives the sons and daughters a little morale."

Qin Chong listened to it, discussed it with a few lieutenants around him, and didn't care about the itinerary of this mile and a half, so he agreed.

"Okay, don't blame me for scaring you," Dugu Qiuqiu said with a grin.

"Hey, we've also rolled back and forth on the battlefield a few times, haven't you seen anything?" Duan Yun glared and replied, their right guard is the sixteen guards of the dignified empire, and the battle is naturally not less, but the most recent big battle is the time when the sage conquered Goryeo in the second year of Shenlong, and last year, the bandits in Badong were only used as an outing, and everyone rushed up with swords in hand, and the bandits - a few peasants scattered in a hurry, so Duan Yun did not have enough confidence to speak.

Dugu Qiuqiu's 500 people were two horses, and the cart drove forty or fifty cars, plus 2,500 people from the Right Weiwei Forbidden Army, and a group of 3,000 people marched northwest to Hailan Pao.

Less than ten miles out of the city, Duan Yun suddenly felt that the weather was getting colder, tightened his breath, muttered a few words, and looked up to see a blue and black high post in front of him.

It is the end of spring in May in the Far East, and the vegetation is gradually sparse here, and the blue-black high post is conspicuous.

This is an iceberg, everyone is very surprised, at this time in the Far East, although there are still a very few high hills can still see sparse snow, but the iceberg has never been seen.

When I got closer and took a closer look, someone immediately threw up.

Duan Yun also spit out the chicken leg he had just eaten, what is this?

Looking at the blue and black iceberg from a distance, I found that it was glazed with brilliance, this is not an ordinary iceberg, it is a pile of dead man's mountains frozen by people.

Under the ice a few feet thick, all kinds of dead people still maintain their pre-death shapes, upright, lying down, crawling, squatting and kneeling, their faces are clearly visible, and the horses even maintain the appearance of running, all of them are Turkic people and horses that have not yet been seen, the iceberg is a radius of several miles, and there are tens of thousands of people frozen in it, all of them are pale and have faces like ghosts.

In addition to the men and horses, the military tent scimitars are complete, and even a few bonfires are still red and black, and the right guards of the Kyoto Forbidden Army are stunned except for vomiting.

Qin Chong gasped and looked at the scene in front of him, the scene of that day came from the surface, a blood-red ice dragon thirty or forty zhang long soared into the sky, the Turkic warriors guarding it became an iceman just as they were about to call, and the sleeping soldiers behind them ran wildly when they woke up, and those who didn't have time to get up turned into icemen, and the sky was still snowing heavily, and after a while, the entire barracks became a world of ice and snow.

It's been three years, and the place where the ice dragon is ravaging is still as frozen as ever, and the sunshine of three years still can't help this flesh and blood iceberg.

"That's what the Grand Sorcerer does?" Although he was far away from that frozen hell, Duan Yun still had palpitations.

"What's for lunch?" Dugu Qiuqiu answered the question.

"You did it on purpose, didn't you?" Duan Yun's eyes widened.

"I got used to it slowly"

"It's been a long time, why haven't you seen a single figure?" Duan Yun asked strangely.

"This is the battlefield, except for the generals, they are dead"

As he spoke, someone reported the discovery of a dead body.

Dugu Qiuqiu rushed forward and put his hand on the pergola to see, "It's a khanate stick, burned"

So one of the fire chiefs led the men to put on a white arrowroot cloth, and covered their mouths and noses with a veil, and the fire chief beat his horse around the corpse, and ordered his men to throw a few branches of trees far away over the corpse, and the fire chief turned around and threw a jar on it, and the jar was broken, and it was oily.

The fire chief waved his hand to signal that it was okay, and Dugu Qiuqiu asked Qin Chong to move forward, and the fire chief ignited the flint and threw it on the branches, and the fire burst out.

There are few traces of cultivation in the fields along the way, but there are no human figures, the first team is walking along the bank of the Jieya River, and slowly the team leaves the Jieya River towards the distant mountains and forests, and finds an uninhabited village before dark, and only a few red-eyed wild dogs are cruising.

The team of 3,000 people silently found a shelter to spend the night, and the next day the sky was drizzling.

The day's journey was in the mountains, and the dense forests were very little bushes, which reduced the trouble of the march. At noon, it was reported that a mark had been found ahead.

Dugu Qiuqiu jumped out of the car and looked at the messy pattern formed by a few stones, turned back to Qin Chong and Duan Yun and said, "There are our people in front."

Before dark, he met a team of 1,000 people, and the leader was none other than Temple Street Hawkeye Xiaowu.

Dugu Qiuqiu and Nawu Yingyan Wulangjun muttered a few words, and came back and said to Qin Chong, "There are Turkic people in front, we have a battle to fight, trouble Qin Duwei and Duan Duwei to sweep the formation"

"What are these words? Our forbidden army was originally here to fight, what does it mean for us to watch from the side at this time? Duan Yun replied with a glare.

"A few thieves, He Lao Forbidden Army stretched out his hand, let's go out and a few people can take care of it" Dugu Qiuqiu said with a smile, but he didn't mean to let the forbidden army do it.

Duan Yun still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Qin Chong.

Dugu Qiuqiu divided three hundred people, and Xiao Wu also divided two or three hundred people, and Xiao Wu led the team to speed up and rush out of the mountain.

"This Xiao Wu has always been steady, it's okay," Dugu Qiuqiu looked at Qin Chong, and Du Wei also looked at Xiao Wu and explained in the direction they were far away, "This Xiao Wu is Zheng Xiu'er's lover, and he will get married after this battle."

"Zheng Xiu'er of the Zheng family, joining the military in the camp?" Duan Yun asked in amazement.

"Yes, the pearl of the Far East Zheng Ji Leather Goods Store Zheng Shirt Shopkeeper"

"Hiss" Duan Yun couldn't figure out how the son-in-law of the Zheng family, one of the seven families surnamed Yan Tang, could appear on this ghostless battlefield in the Far East.

The men and horses left by Xiao Wu stood still, guarding more than 100 carts, Duan Yun took a closer look, and there were nearly a thousand Turkic people tied up on the ground.

Qin Chong also saw it, and looked at Dugu Qiuqiu suspiciously.

"That's a captive, sent to Hailan Pao" Dugu Qiuqiu explained, although Qin Chong also saw that those people were old and young, as well as women, girls and children, and they were not Turkic warriors at all, but he was old and serious, and he didn't stretch out his hand if he didn't care about things.

Duan Yun's face flushed, and he looked around, there was silence on the side of Temple Street, although some people on the forbidden army's side saw it, they were just curious, and they didn't say anything.

Everyone was stationed in place, as soon as it was dark, Xiao Wu came back, this time escorting back nearly 100 authentic Turkic warriors, although there was no armor at all, all of them were tied and dragged behind the horse, but the unruly look on his face could not hide the true colors of the warriors.

"Just your soft heart" Dugu Qiuqiu went up and complained, "It's just a cut, it's a burden to carry"

Xiao Wu had a calm face, this time he attacked, and he also lost more than a dozen brothers on the side of Temple Street.

Xiao Wu had seen Qin Duan and the others, and returned to his team to tidy up.

On the second day, Xiao Wu took people back to Hailan and left an extra hundred people for Dugu Qiuqiu.

The rain became heavier and heavier, passing by the place where Xiao Wu attacked yesterday, there were still more than 100 Turkic corpses on the ground.

After walking for another half a day, someone on the road reported that he had found a Turkic spy in front of him, Dugu Qiuqiu pondered for a while, asked the horses to stop, sent a fire scout, and asked his men to lock the cart in a row with iron chains on the road.

Then he reported back to Qin Chong and proposed to let the forbidden army hide in the mountains and forests beside the road, waiting for an opportunity to raid. Qin Chong agreed.

After a while, the fire scout galloped back, followed by thousands of scimitar-wielding Turks.

The scout dismounted in front of the car and bypassed the formation.

Dugu Qiuqiu instructed his subordinates to prepare a bow and crossbow, and waited for the Turks to rush to the front of the car formation for more than 20 steps, the Turkic face in the rain was clearly visible, with a wave of his hand, six hundred bows were fired in unison, and most of the Turkic front row fell, but the back was still one after another, Dugu Qiuqiu jumped out of the car, lifted a slashing saber, and stood behind the car formation, and there were two hundred people behind each holding a knife and a lance to look at the enemy who rushed into the formation.

The remaining 400 men continued to fire their arrows at once, without aim, and each time they fired their bows and arrows, they could hit one man or a horse.

The Turks have arrived in front of the rook formation, lifting the reins and urging the horses, ready to cross the cart, Dugu Qiuqiu is not in a hurry, standing ten steps away from the chariot formation, most of the Turkic horses knocked on the rook formation, and a few horses barely jumped over by Dugu Qiuqiu and slashed down.
