Chapter 604: Never Give Up

"You're talking about"

"It's not those partial generals who think that after reading a few military books, they feel like they are a Yum general," Lu Yanyi said: "There are also those masters of the state government, who also want to take this opportunity to show themselves, and keep saying that they are familiar with geography, lest others not know their talents." ”

"How can that work? Fighting until dawn, I'm afraid it's useless. ”

It was these words, seeing that the sky was about to get dark, and there was no useful word, so then Brother Guang decided to send a light horse to probe first, find out the enemy's situation, and then discuss how to deal with it. Although they still disagreed, they didn't dare not listen when they saw that Brother Guang was angry. ”

"I was in the pharmacy, and I also heard people talking about the fact that the Turks had set up several ambushes this time," Qingwan said: "If you don't find out in advance, you really can't enter the army." Who's going to do that? ”

"Brother Guang decided to go in person."

"What?" Qingwan was taken aback: "He's the boss, can't he send a partial general?" ”

"The argument is so," Lu Yanyi said: "But Brother Guang said that this matter looks simple, but it is a major matter related to the victory or defeat of the battle, and it cannot be handed over to others casually." Brother Guang is resolute, who can persuade him? ”

"I understand his temper, he has always been stubborn," Qingwan knew that he couldn't help it, "I can only let him go." This pathfinder shouldn't be too dangerous, right? ”

Lu Yanyi shook his head slightly: "I can't say for sure, but Brother Guang has been on the battlefield once, and if he has some experience, it should be fine." I have told him to bring more delicate weapons and set out early tomorrow morning. ”

"I'll have to go see him." Qingwan can't rest assured, so he has to go to the state office.

"Are you confused?" Lu Yanyi hurriedly got up and stopped her: "The state government usually goes to the key at night, not to mention that in this extraordinary period, it is three layers inside and three layers outside, and it is heavily guarded. And what's the use of you going? ”

Qingwan realized her recklessness, so she had to sit back: "Aren't I in a hurry? ”

"Okay, can you still believe Brother Guang's ability?" Lu Yanyi comforted: "Just wait to drink his celebration wine!" ”

Outside the window, a bright moon sprinkled the clear light on the earth, as if to wash away the war and strife in this world.

The next day, the couple discussed, and still went to the pharmacy by Qingjuan. Although the medicinal materials are increasing unabated, and she is busier than yesterday, her heart is always tied to her second brother, and she wonders if she will encounter danger?

In anxiety and worry, it was easy to get through until everything was done, Qingwan drank two mouthfuls of porridge, and hurried home by car.

"Is Shangshu-sama back?" The first thing I said when I saw the housekeeper was.

"No, the old slave has already asked someone to ask, who knows that the state government has increased the manpower again, and no one is allowed to enter, it took a long time, and it was easy to get the word in, and after waiting for a long time, someone came out and said that our family Shangshu can't come back tonight."

Qingwan was shocked in her heart, afraid that something really happened, so she turned around and walked outside: "I have to go and see for myself!" ”

"Madame, ma'am!" The housekeeper hurriedly brought someone up from behind: "This black light is blinding, you still don't want it"

"Mouthy!" Qingwan was irritable in her heart, and said sharply: "Do you dare not listen to my words?" ”

The butler didn't dare to speak again, so he called more subordinates and followed the carriage to the state office.

Sure enough, when I entered the street, I saw many soldiers patrolling, and almost no one could see it.

"Who? Don't let it go! "Immediately there were soldiers to intercept him.

"This is Mrs. Lu Shangshu's car from the North Pharmacy, and I have something to do to enter the state office." The coachman said.

"The prefect has a strict order, and no one is allowed to enter or leave without a token!" The soldier said sharply: "Park the car here first, don't move it without permission, and wait until I go to report it." ”

"We're It"

Before the coachman finished speaking, he was stopped by Qingwan: "The rules should not be messed up, just follow his words." ”

"You have to hurry up and make it clear that Mrs. Lu Shangshu is here." The coachman reluctantly pulled the carriage aside, and gave the soldier another word.

The soldier did not reply, but walked briskly to the gate of the state office, and said a few words to a man who looked like a leader, and the leader went inside.

After a while, the leader hurried over and said respectfully in front of the carriage, "Mrs. Lu, several adults, please come over." ”

Qingwan got out of the car and ordered: "You all stay here, obey the order and don't move around, I will go into the yamen alone." ”

After finishing speaking, he passed through the layers of guards and entered the gate of the state government.

The atmosphere inside is even more unusual, a little more tense than on the street. In the past, Qingwan also came, in addition to some soldiers, there were also servants and women walking back and forth, but now except for the soldiers, no idler can see it.

Immediately, two people who looked like masters greeted them: "Say hello to Mrs. Lu!" All the adults are in the West Hall, and the little ones will take you there. ”

Qingwan bowed slightly, and followed to the west. The lights were bright, and I could hear the whispers inside, but I couldn't hear what was being said.

As soon as they entered the room, many people stood up, Lu Yanyi and Hanguan sat in the center, Chen Yong, the prefect of Qianzhou, on the left, and the lieutenant generals of the army on the right. The officials of the state government all stood aside.

"Mrs. Lu, please take a seat!" Chen Yong hurriedly said: "The envoy was just about to send someone to invite you, but I didn't expect Mrs. to come over!" ”

"The prefect doesn't have to be polite," Qingwan sat next to Lu Yanyi, looking at each other, she immediately understood that something big must have happened.

"The general took people to explore the way, and said that he would come back at the right time, but seeing that it was almost time, there was still no movement at all." Hanguan said impatiently.

"How many people went?" Qingwan asked.

"The general said that it would be inconvenient to bring more people, and there are only three hundred elite soldiers," Chen Yong said busily: "Originally, if things go well, they will be able to return at the beginning of the day, but Lord Shangshu and the envoy have already discussed, and sent soldiers to look for them along the road." ”

"Back to a few adults!" Several soldiers, covered in sweat, ran in: "The general has returned with the people who went to explore the way!" ”

"What?" Everyone in the room stood up in unison: "Then why don't you call them in?" ”

Suddenly, three soldiers covered in wounds were helped in, and along the way, blood stains were still falling to the ground.

Seeing this scene, the faces of the Qingwan sisters and brothers suddenly turned pale, in the end, Lu Yanyi could hold it a little, and asked first: "Where is the general now?" ”

"Master Hui Shangshu!" The three of them were unsteady on their feet, so they simply fell to the ground and cried: "The general took the small ones to explore the way, and everything went smoothly at the beginning, and the Turkic forces were all arranged, and the general personally drew a map." Later, I came to a small river, along the river is a remote road, only here is not explored, the small ones persuaded the general not to go in person, the general had to see it with his own eyes, who knew that just entered the path, there was a large group of Turkic ambush soldiers, the number was about five or six thousand, all of them were strong soldiers, the general led the small ones to fight hard, and finally because they were outnumbered, there was no plan to break through, almost all of the three hundred people were killed, only three of us were left, the general was also seriously injured, and handed over the map to the small one, and turned back to fight, Try to lure away the Turks and help the little ones break through. Sure enough, the soldiers of the brigade were all attracted to the past, and the small ones took a chance and finally got out of the path. ”

"What?" Hanguan took the case: "You just care about running for your own lives and leaving the general behind?" ”

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!" The three of them cried and said: "Originally, the little ones said that they would desperately protect the general no matter what, but who knew that the general said that this map is the most important and must be passed back." The attention of the Turks was on the general, and only if he led away the large group of men, the small three could break through. If all four of them fight, I'm afraid that the last one won't be able to escape. It's really that the big generals refuse to leave, and the little ones can't disobey, and they know that they deserve to die! ”

"Come on, push them out for me!" Han Guan was anxious and went crazy: "First cut off the heads of these people, and then I will go to the general in person!" ”

"You're so confused!" Lu Yanyi hurriedly said: "They are also ordered to act, how can they be blamed?" Even if it is beheaded, what is the point? ”

"No matter how you deal with it, the little ones are willing to accept the guilt!" The three of them cried loudly: "The general is sympathetic and takes the lead, and the little ones are deeply gracious, but they have committed such a big mistake, if they can still do a part, they will never give up!" ”

"Where's that map?" Lu Yanyi asked.

The three of them hurriedly took out a bloodstained drawing from their close-fitting clothes and presented it: "This is what the general exchanged for his life, and he has been instructed to present it to Shang Shu and the envoy in person." ”

"Nonsense!" Hanguan was angry and painful: "Who said that the general must be dead?" His kung fu is profound, and he will definitely be able to escape from the encirclement! ”

The three of them knew that they were speechless, but they just kowtowed and asked for guilt, but they were all secretly thinking in their hearts: With such a net, no matter how high their skills are, how can they save their lives?

"A few of you get up," Lu Yanyi said: "Then take the elite soldiers and look for them along the way, now the Turks have relaxed their vigilance after this fierce battle, and they must look carefully for every place, and they must not let go of any place!" ”

"What do you mean?" The prefect was a little confused, and said tentatively: "The general is now trapped in the Turks, and the guards will be extremely strict, go find them along the road."

In fact, all the officials present also thought that Hanguang must have died, so after listening to Lu Yanyi's words, they all felt disapproving, but they didn't dare to say anything.

"I know what you want to say," Lu Yanyi waved his hand lightly: "But if I'm not mistaken, the general won't fall into the hands of the Turks now!" ”

It was like a shock, and everyone showed a look of astonishment, including Qingwan, who never expected to hear this sentence.

Lu Yanyi was full of confidence: "Think about it, if the general has really been arrested, how can the Turks still hold on?" Someone has already been sent to negotiate the conditions, can you wait until this time? ”
