Chapter 55, Something Happened in Northern Xinjiang

Seeing the fire in Wei Peng's eyes, Wumo knelt at his feet, hugged his leg and shouted: "Master, you don't remember what you did, how can the villain know?" When the villain saw it, the people had already run out crying, although your clothes were all on your body, but who knows if you didn't take it off or put it on again, master, you let the villain go, the villain really doesn't know anything! He suddenly raised his head and said, "Master, is she really Xue'er?" Don't you think she's changed? It's prettier than that year! ”

Wei Peng's eyes flashed with coldness, he had already picked him up and threw him out, gritted his teeth and said, "You can also evaluate what she looks like?" The eighteenth year of the female college changed, she was only fifteen at that time, maybe she will be more beautiful in a few years! ”

In fact, Yang Jiulin was also unable to sleep, his intuition told him that Helan Xue's surrender to the army was not malicious to him, at least she had no ill will towards herself and Wei Peng, and the others? should ask for more blessings, she wants to go to Mobei, she would rather exchange the drawings of the crossbow, and at the same time, she presented the drawings of the catapult, when she saw this drawing, Wei Peng only felt that her eyes lit up, if this was made, it would definitely alarm the world, but she gave this credit to Wei Peng, that is, she wanted to go to Mobei very low-key to collect debts? Who is there who is worth her price in exchange, and it is in the barracks, obviously, her enemies are in the army, so who is she?

Someone knocked lightly on the door, and the sound of the rain sounded outside the door: "Little Marquis, Wenshuang is back, do you want to see him now?" ”

Yang Jiulin's heart sank for no reason, and he asked to see him at the third watch, this must be something urgent. Outside the door, a Tsing Yi guard pushed the door in with a cold wind, Wen Shuang was also a guard of the Hou Mansion, in the past, one of the two must have been close guards, if it wasn't for the urgency of the matter this time, Yang Jiulin would not have sent all these two people out.

Wenshuang closed the door, saluted Yang Jiulin, and said in a low voice: "Little Marquis, General Yan has an accident." ”

Yang Jiulin's body shook violently, and the expression on his face changed greatly: "Something's wrong?" How is he? ”

General Yan is his deputy general, named Yan Wuju, is a rare general in the army, good martial arts, people are brave and strategic, when he returned to Beijing, he handed over military affairs to him, how could he have an accident? How could something happen to him!!

Wen Shuang continued: "After the little marquis left, the army has been normal, seeing that Mobei is about to be defeated, but half a month ago, it suddenly flipped, and it was reported that Mobei had increased its troops by 20,000 troops, and that day General Yan led his troops to pursue the enemy, and at night, Yuguan was forcibly breached, and the people in the city were killed and injured countless ......."

Yang Jiulin couldn't hide his shock, and was silent for a long time before he calmed down and asked again, "What about General Yan?" What about the garrisons of Beihai Town? Reinforcements available? ”

"General Yan saw that the situation was not good and had already turned back, but he was intercepted by two groups of people halfway, one team was Mobei soldiers and the other team was ...... The origin is unknown, and when General Yan led his troops to rush out of the encirclement and return to Yuguan, Yuguan had already been lost, and Yuguan was left with 20,000 guards, all of whom were ...... Die! General Yan was seriously injured, but still led the remnants to prepare for the siege, the second master came to support with the defenders of Beihai Town, but you also know that Yuguan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, General Yan is afraid that Beihai Town will be attacked by a sneak attack, and he is seriously injured, so he can't attack, so he has to lead his troops back to defend Beihai. Later, I heard from the people who escaped from Yuguan that during the siege of the city, the soldiers and civilians in the city were united, and they could relieve the siege when General Yan returned or the reinforcements from Beihai arrived, but in the middle of the battle, someone opened the city gate.

When General Yan met the enemy, he had made a good deployment, and once the situation changed, he would let the people out of the city, but things changed too quickly, and General Mo, who was left to defend the city, had no time to arrange, and less than forty percent of the people escaped, and after the city was broken, the troops slaughtered the city......"

Thinking of the situation in the city, Wenshuang couldn't help but shiver, although he was born and died with Yang Jiulin, and was used to seeing the blood in the confrontation between the two armies, but when he arrived at Yuguan that day, he was still shocked, the moat was almost filled with corpses, the city was on fire, the air was filled with the smell of burning corpses, and it could be smelled ten miles outside the city, he took advantage of the night to climb along the city wall into the city to inquire about the news in the city, the soldiers in the city wantonly burned and looted, the men of the people were slaughtered, the women were used as camp prostitutes, and the children were not spared, all were killed, He even saw that some soldiers were actually eating babies, and Yuguan was a human purgatory.

Yang Jiulin's whole body was cold, his blood seemed to be coagulated, and his heart sank like that, sinking to the bottom of the ice. Yan Wu shot and went to attack the city after being seriously injured, now life and death are uncertain, Yuguan is lost, someone opened the city gate, and something happened in the army.

At this moment, he was in a trance, as if that scene was reproduced in front of him many years ago. That day was also the evening, someone came back from Mobei, ran to his grandfather's study, and brought back the news that the Xie family collaborated with the enemy, the North Yanmen was lost, and the soldiers slaughtered the city. In that battle, the Beiyan Gate guarded by the Xie family was also opened, the third master was missing, the news reached Beijing, the emperor issued an order to recall the Xie family, Xie Hou Ye and several other sons, several children in the clan resisted the order, refused to be captured, was killed in the fight, seriously injured five people, and later escorted back to Beijing on the way, three people died, two escaped. Even Kyochu's married daughter was implicated and given to death, as well as the girl with a pair of almond eyes.

Later, news came, saying that the Xie family was framed, but whether it was a collaborator or a false accusation, there was no clear evidence, but Xie Houye almost did not survive, and the two people who escaped, one was the son of Changfang and the other was the son of Sanfang, and since then they have lost the news, which has become an unsolved case and is still wanted.

A breath of turbid air in his chest can't be released, almost suffocating him, Yan Wu shoots, he can't die, he must live and wait for him to rush back to Mobei. There was a pain in the heart, and then, a girl's innocent and bright face emerged, Lian Ruixue! You can't die either! Why does every time he thinks of Northern Xinjiang, he can't help but think of this girl?

Wenshuang was frightened by his appearance, and reached out to support the crumbling Yang Jiulin: "Little Marquis, what's wrong with you?" Do you want to ask a doctor? ”

Yang Jiulin waved his hand and took a deep breath, Yan Wushu didn't have any background, why was he targeted, who was the person who had been hiding behind him? He suddenly slapped the table, Helan Xue! Who is she? Why do you want to go to the Mobei Army at this time to collect debts? What debt does she collect!!

Thinking about it, his people had already rushed out of the house like the wind and went directly to the backyard to knock on He Lanxue's door. At this time, it has been nearly three watches, Helan Xue's room has already been darkened, these days, her work and rest are very regular, go to bed early at night, don't get up in the morning, every time everyone is about to leave after breakfast before coming out and directly following them on the road. Yang Jiulin and Wei Peng's secret guards flew around every day, and she was completely out of the way: You guys have fun, my sister wants to sleep.
