Chapter 666: The True Princess Goes Missing (5)
Yin Xiaohei didn't leave, Jiang Geng swore to follow him again, but the real king was not happy.
He knew that those who stayed behind would lose their lives at any time.
For the sake of his wife, he can give up his life. These people, he couldn't bear to let them die here.
Especially Jiang Geng. The real king Zhu Xi looked at Jiang Geng and said, "Jiang Geng, don't you listen to what this prince said?" ”
Jiang Geng wanted to say more, but Yin Xiaohei said on the side, "Jiang Geng, you are just married." The prince doesn't want you to take risks, you have to know the prince's good intentions."
"I know" Jiang Geng of course understood that the prince asked him to leave with the prince because of him marrying Chunxiang. However, as a subordinate of the true king, did he turn around and leave when he saw that the prince was in danger?
"Jiang Geng, don't think it's safe to leave. This king has handed over the son to you, and you will pledge with your life to bring him back to Kyoto safely. You know? The true king Zhu Xi knew Jiang Geng's temper, so he explained the importance of his task.
After Jiang Geng heard this, he was a little silent. Although he stayed to help the prince, he also knew the importance of the safety of the prince.
If, in case, the prince is in danger this time, the son of the world is his bloodline inheritance. He protects the prince well, and he also solves the worries of the prince.
"Lord, I know. I promise you that I will send the prince back to Kyoto safely. Jiang Geng promised.
"Okay, Jiang Geng, this king trusts you the most. I believe that you will be able to protect the son of the world," said Zhu Xi, the true king.
Everyone looked like they were going home. Obviously, there will be a hard battle next.
Huo Du, who rushed to Seva City to borrow troops, was asked a question by his subordinates.
"My lord, if we come out like this, aren't we afraid that the people of the Qianchao will take advantage of the situation and rescue the real princess?"
"Why do you think I took the True Princess to General Xiaolong's camp? Although General Xiaolong had only a thousand soldiers under his command, he was an archer. I hope that the True King will attack at night, so that we will not be in trouble," Huo Du said coldly.
"My lord, my subordinates don't understand. We did not tell the people of the Qianchao that there was General Xiaolong and his men. They may think that we are in the dark and may not be able to fight to the death? ”
"Do you think the true king of the Qian Dynasty is a fool? He is a rare general in a century. He is best at gathering intelligence and laying out tactics. Will he not wait for news first? General Xiaolong's team can be seen at a glance. Do you think that the people of the Qianchao are not afraid of death? ”
"It's still an adult who thinks it through, and that's the reason. However, the subordinates still have a little doubt. It stands to reason that the people of the Qianchao should know that they only have one trump card in their hands. Adults will change the appointment time to tomorrow at noon. Don't you be afraid, the people of the Qianchao will run away overnight tonight? Also, if I am a member of the Qianchao, knowing that the disparity in strength is so huge, it is better to take advantage of the darkness to rescue their princess, there is still a glimmer of possibility. If they really wait until tomorrow daylight, what will they be able to do? ”
"Hehe, boy, you're smart" Huo Du looked at his subordinates, the lean man, with a shrewd look, and laughed.
"Don't forget that we have the real princess in our hands. As far as I know, the real king and the princess have a very good relationship. I don't think he will leave the real princess behind and run for his life on his own. As for it, will it be like what you just said, the people of the Qianchao know that it is impossible to rescue the princess after tomorrow, so they simply give it a go tonight? Ben-sama was prepared, too. General Xiaolong has been asked to send soldiers to encircle the Qianchao people, as long as they dare to show their heads, they will serve with bows and arrows."
"My lord, it's really tall."
Huo Du didn't look overly happy, "The question is over?" Then let's hurry on."
After speaking, the group rode their horses and galloped on the road, raising several feet of flying dust, and hid in the night.
The real king Zhu Xi finally coaxed his son and let him leave with Jiang Geng.
And after dealing with all this, the true king looked at the moon in the sky.
A bright moon, high in the sky.
Today is the sixteenth, which should be a good day for the reunion of the people and the moon.
But......
The True King looked to the north, where the Jurchens had set up camp.
He already knew that the Jurchens had already set up an ambush here. It is a thousand archers, or the Jurchen famous dragon general Xiao Darin.
This person is very familiar to the true king. On the battlefield, he is a difficult opponent. Now, it's here. Obviously, he Nuhachi originally let him ambush here in order to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, so as to prevent future troubles.
The True King thought that if his people were lucky enough to escape from Blackwater City and meet Xiao Dalin, the general of the dragon, there would be no chance of escaping.
If not, Song Yi would have taken himself hostage and let them get to the border all the way safely. Perhaps, you will be ambushed here.
Although, the true king understands that Song Yi's sacrifice has saved the safety of all of them. But he would rather make his own choice, like a real man, and fight to the death with the Jurchens. I don't want to, look at my own woman, become a hostage of the enemy.
Thinking of this, the true king felt that there was a breath in his chest, and he couldn't vent it.
With a calm face, he walked to a tent.
When the soldier guarding the prisoner saw the true king coming, he stood straight.
"Someone in there?"
"Yes, Lord Wang"
The True King walked in and looked at the man tied to the tree.
"Untie the khan, this king has something to say to the khan," the true king commanded.
The soldier untied the rope from the khan's body and retreated.
"Isn't the true king afraid that I will escape?" He and Nuhachi did not have the slightest consciousness of being a hostage, as if they were gossiping with the true king. I can't see at all that I was embarrassed by being tied up just now.
Seeing that Nuhachi and Nuhachi were so psychologically strong, they had to appreciate them.
This kind of appreciation has nothing to do with friend or foe, nothing to do with hatred, only about the worship of power among men.
"If the Khan can escape, then say" The true king also competed against each other, and was very confident.
Two men, in a tent in the wilderness, fought with each other.
"Haha" and Nohachi suddenly laughed, "Tomorrow I will get what I want, do you care about waiting one more night?" ”
And the meaning of Nohachi's words, the true king naturally understood. He looked at the other party coldly and said, "Khan, it's night, you should dream during the day."
The true king retorted and rebuked Nuha for daydreaming.
Although he and Nuhachi have been following Song Yi to learn Qianchao dialect for a long time. But he still didn't understand what the real king meant, but he didn't understand and knew that Zhu Xi wouldn't say anything good.
"Then let me and the True King wait and see."
"Well, the king made a bet with the Khan. In the end, it must be this king who left with the princess."
"Princess?" And Nuhachi smiled and said, "How can the real princess appear here?" Shouldn't she be in Kyoto? ”
