Chapter 25 Mid-Autumn Festival

Outside Jinggu Pass, the two armies faced each other, the blue sky was cloudless, and the scorching sun exuded the light of showing off its might.

Song Mochen led the army to guard the city gate, he never imagined that the army of the Mingyue Kingdom, which had been silent for a long time, would launch an attack on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Before the formal fighting, there was the customary "shouting" stage between the two armies.

In the midst of the war drums, Song Mochen, who was riding on a high-headed horse, raised his right hand, and the rumbling war drums seemed to have received an order, and immediately stopped shouting.

"Son of the world, don't come unharmed."

In front of the enemy formation, the person wearing a crane robe and crane feathers on his head and looking beautiful is the Seven Princes of the Bright Moon Country - Changyu Yuxu.

"Stains, Song Mochen? Who did I think I hadn't seen for a long time! What about Song Moting? It won't be that when I saw this son in person, I was afraid to hide, hahaha! ”

Changyu raised his eyebrows, his tone was full of mockery, this arrogant arrogance was really unpleasant to watch!

Song Mochen grew up in the military camp with Song Moting since he was a child, and he also fought with Changyu Yuxu several times behind Song Moting, and never fought with him personally, but he still remembered that every time he fought, he was beaten by Song Moting.

In the great battle three years ago, Song Moting led 5,000 soldiers to defeat their 30,000 troops, and they had no choice but to retreat beyond Chishui.

Now they are arrogant, but it's just because Song Moting is not there.

"Hmph, I don't know who is defeated by the eldest brother every time he fights, how can he need the eldest brother to deal with you bastards."

Regarding Changyu Yu's provocation, Song Mochen was extremely calm, just snorted coldly, and did not forget to reveal the scar in the other party's heart.

As soon as Song Mo knew this, all the soldiers burst into laughter.

Changyu clenched his fists in vain, and his face turned green with anger.

"You! Hum! What if I talk about it now, it's just a matter of paying lip service, and I'm not beaten and kneeling on the ground and calling grandpa for a while! ”

"Then let's stop talking nonsense, let's have a real fight, and see who knelt down and called grandpa!"

After saying that, he rode his horse and galloped forward, Changyu saw this, and also rode his horse to meet him, and the soldiers of the two armies immediately shouted slogans while rushing forward, and in an instant, shouting, swords, and horse whistles resounded through the heavens and the earth, and the smoke of gunpowder rose everywhere.

Although Ming Jun has a numerical advantage and relatively advanced weapons, he lacks experience in arranging formations and can only rely on brute force, and his momentum begins to gradually lose to Youjun.

On the other side, Changyu Yuxu and Song Moxuan had a few rounds of sword light and sword shadows, although they barely fought a draw, but compared to the sassy Song Moxuan, Changyu Yuxu was obviously much more difficult, and the feathers on his body were crooked, and he couldn't fall off, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Just when the Ming army was defeated and Song Mochen was about to capture Changyu Yuxu alive, Changyu Yuxu suddenly laughed.

"Hahaha, don't think that's the end of it, the show is about to start!"

As soon as the voice of the long fish fell, there was a "buzzing" sound in the sky, and then a group of unknown flying insects covered the sky and covered the sun, dense and creepy!

The horses on the battlefield felt the danger and neighed continuously, Song Mochen was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly summoned the retreat of the hidden army.

"Everyone, get out!"

In the barracks, Song Mochen frowned, recalling the scene just now, he still felt creepy!

At that time, the overwhelming flying insects pounced on the Youjun, the flying insects with heads like flies and tails like bees, they injected the venom on their bodies into the wounds of the Youjun, and when the wounded soldiers were paralyzed and fell to the ground, they instantly pounced on them in piles to gnaw their bodies.

When Qiao Muqing came in, he looked at the motionless meal in front of Song Mochen and shook his head.

For a long time, he and Song Mochen have been fighting behind Song Moting, and now after Song Moting returned to Beijing, he has become the backbone of the barracks, and now that something like this has happened, it can be described as a lot of pressure.

"Mo Chen, how much do you eat, you don't eat or drink like this, and if you don't think of a way to do it when the time comes, your body will collapse first."

"But I really don't have an appetite, by the way, Mu Qing, how are the soldiers' wounds treated?"

"Rest assured, it's all taken care of."

"That's good!" Song Mochen breathed a sigh of relief, and asked again, "Those flying insects, do you know what they are?" It's so lethal, it's not a way to go on like this! ”

Qiao Muqing's brows furrowed, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes that day, he wouldn't have known that there were such powerful flying insects in time.

"I don't know, but I think we should inform the emperor of this matter immediately, we are shallow, and we can only wield knives and guns, maybe those well-read Taifu in the palace can find the answer."

"For now, that's all it takes, but it must be fast! If you can't find a way to start a war next time, Jinggu Pass won't be able to hold it! ”

If Jinggu Pass is lost, it is equivalent to the gate of Youzhou being directly opened, and the consequences are unimaginable.

At this time, Jing'an City is full of lights, lively and extraordinary, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is the moment when people enjoy reunion.

Different from the previous Mid-Autumn Festival, at this moment, in addition to the people coming and going, there are also rows of patrolling troops on the streets.

In the palace, the Taihe Hall sang and danced, but the faces of the people who could watch it were constantly sad.

They had received the news about the border in the morning, and they were also uneasy at this moment. But no matter how many civil and military officials there are, no one knows what that flying insect is.

Halfway through the banquet, Rong Jiu was already bored, and after the last incident, her brothers refused to let her go out to play anymore, and her agreement with Song Moting could only be abandoned.

Rong Jiu raised his head and secretly looked in the direction of Song Moting, he was drinking seriously with his head down, but his good-looking brows were tightly locked.

Rong Jiu knew that he must be worried about the border matter.

Although she didn't know what happened to the border pass, from her brothers, she probably guessed that there must be no way to solve the big thing.

Seeing him like that, Rong Jiu felt uncomfortable, and when he thought that he couldn't help him, he only felt panicked in his heart, so he wanted to go out to breathe.

Rong Jiu, who left the banquet, felt the cool evening breeze, and felt a lot more comfortable.

As soon as she stepped on the steps, a flower bud floated to her feet, picked it up and trotted to the city wall, and the picture was really dreamlike.

The palace people are hanging lanterns on the trees, the yellow light sets off the bright and delicate red flowers, the red and green are swaying, and the petals are slowly falling from the trees like fairies through the gentle breeze.

"It's a beautiful flower."

The sudden voice made Rong Jiu's heart startled, and when she turned around, Song Moci didn't know when she had come behind her, and at this time, Amu was also gone.

"You're a cat, huh? Walk without sound. ”

Rong Jiu glared at the person in front of him angrily, no matter how timid he was, he might be scared to death.

"You'd guess wrong." Song Moci shook his head slyly, "I'm a dog." ”

Rong Jiu rolled her eyes, she just said it casually, this guy was serious.

"Hey! Why did a person run out? Do you also find this kind of dinner party boring? I'm telling you, I'm going to fall asleep sitting there. ”

Song Moci saw that Rong Jiu ignored her, so he went up again and changed the topic.

"It's boring, stuffy, or comfortable outside!"

Through the city walls one after another, Rong Jiu seemed to be able to see the hawkers shouting on the streets at this time, as well as the frolicking pedestrians.

Originally, tonight, she and Song Moting should also be one of the pair......

"Hey, do you know what's going on at the border gate?" Rong Jiu raised his head and looked at Song Moci with a serious expression.

"Border gates? You're a girl, why do you care about this? Song Moci asked suspiciously.

"Can't you be curious? Don't say it! ”

Seeing that Rong Jiu was angry and didn't overdo it, Song Mo panicked, hurriedly compromised, and told Rong Jiu everything that had happened.

"Flies and bees?" Rong Jiu lowered her head and pondered, she always felt as if she had seen it somewhere.

"It's not ...... Beetail flies? ”

A flash of light flashed in Rong Jiu's mind, and she suddenly remembered that she had seen it in an ancient book, and she liked to nest in the library to read ancient books in her spare time, because she was very interested in flying insects such as beetail flies at that time, so she remembered it more clearly.

"Hey, don't move, there's a petal on your head!"

Song Moci took a step forward, leaned in front of Rong Jiu, and carefully removed the petals, because of the large height gap, Rong Jiu only felt that there was suddenly a wall of flesh in front of him, and he didn't dare to move while breathing.

But I don't know that at this moment, they look a little ambiguous in the eyes of others.

Song Moting's pupils not far away were slightly dilated, exuding a cold aura all over his body, and his already irritable mood was already burning with anger at the moment.

He shouldn't have worried about her and found out.

was about to turn around and leave, but the sharp-eyed Rong Jiu found out.

"Lord Wang, did you come to me specifically?" Rong Jiu ran towards Song Moting with a smile, completely ignoring Song Moci, who had a black face behind him.

"It seems that this king has disturbed you." Song Moting looked at Song Moci coldly.

"Big brother really knows each other."

The so-called enemies are very red when they meet, and the two of them are like this, you are staring at me, I am staring at you, Rong Jiuyun was in a fog, and he only felt that the temperature around him was dropping sharply.

"Don't bother, don't bother at all! Hey. Rong Jiuyan smiled and stood between the two, and quickly found a topic, "Is the prince still worried about the border affairs?" ”

Song Moting frowned, as if he was a little surprised that Rong Jiu could actually guess his thoughts.

"You've been frowning all night, and you've been drinking, I don't like you like this." Rong Jiu lowered his head and said to himself with a pout.

Song Moci's pupils constricted, although he knew that the person Rong Jiu liked was his eldest brother, he still couldn't accept the facts, and he held his breath in his heart, he knew that there was no place for him here.

To be honest, hearing Rong Jiu's words, Song Moting was still a little surprised, but he disappeared in a moment. He told himself over and over again that Rong Jiu was still young and didn't know taboos, and she was just worshipping him now, not true feelings.

A gust of wind hits, and the petals fly instantly, and the picture is so beautiful that it makes people shine.

"The wind is blowing, this king will send the princess back."

Song Moting took his eyes off Rong Jiu and said nonchalantly.

"I don't want to go back, I have more important things to tell you!"

Rong Jiu raised his head suddenly, and just happened to see Song Moting's knife-like side face, his pupils were slightly open, and his eyes were a little obsessed.

It's worthy of the man I fancied, this is too handsome!
