After leaving the palace, Zhao Gao personally sent Gu Jiuge back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

After this accident, Gu Qingxue and the Li family lost their lives, and the entire Xiangfu became even more fragmented.

"Daddy, I have already ordered to go down, and I will bury my fourth sister and the Li family." When Gu Jiuge came to the study, Gu Shuyuan was sitting in front of the bookcase, pondering in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

Listening to her, Gu Shuyuan raised his head, his eyes were red, and the bottom of his eyes was blue. He sighed heavily, his brow full of unquenchable worry.

Although Gu Qingxue is not as popular as Gu Jiuge, and he often causes trouble, but in the end, it is his own flesh and blood. However, in just a few months, he lost his two daughters, Gu Qingwei and Gu Qingxue, one after another, plus Gu Lisheng's life and death on the battlefield are unknown, how can he not be worried?

"Ge'er, go back and rest. Daddy is fine, I just want to be quiet. Gu Shuyuan patted her hand and said softly.

When Gu Jiuge heard this, he didn't bother him anymore, and retreated lightly and closed the door.

In the small courtyard of drinking songs, as soon as Huachun saw her coming back, he immediately rushed up, hugged her and cried: "Miss, you are finally back!" The slave is really worried about dying! ”

Gu Jiuge stroked her back and whispered a few words of comfort.

At that time, Qingfeng and Nantian were waiting for her in the courtyard, and when they saw her coming, they also hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Miss, it's okay if you're okay."

"Da Yuan Zhong found it, right?" Gu Jiu Ge nodded towards Qingfeng, and then asked.

If Da Yuanzhong hadn't been found, those secret guards wouldn't have rushed over in time last night.

Qingfeng said: "Yes, it is now locked up in the secret room of Qingfeng Pavilion, just waiting for the young lady to dispose of it." ”

"Shut him up for now, and send someone to watch over him." Gu Jiuge said absentmindedly, she was now full of Mu Liang.

After thinking about it for a long time, Gu Jiuge turned to Nantian and said, "Nantian, there is no danger in the royal city now, you better return to Mu Liang as soon as possible." I can rest assured that you are by his side. ”

"Yes!"

Nantian was also very worried about Mu Liang, so he didn't shirk Gu Jiuge's decision, in order not to delay time, he immediately went out of the city, but went to the tomb of Huiqiu before leaving, and stayed for a while before leaving.

At the same time, the fighting at the border became more and more intense.

Although under the leadership of Mu Liang, Dayue won many victories, but there was never a way to completely drive the armies of the Southern Barbarians and the Western Regions out of Dayue's territory. Every time it comes to a critical battle, the enemy army can always come up with a way to deal with it unexpectedly, which also gives Mu Liang a headache.

In the camp tent, Mu Liang sat upright, staring at the defense map placed in front of him.

Right now, the army led by Da Yuanlie was forced by Mu Liang into a dangerous canyon. In this battle, both sides suffered heavy losses, and now Da Yuanlie is trapped in the valley, which is a great opportunity for Mu Liang!

There is no direct contradiction between the Western Regions and Da Yue, if Da Yuanlie can be captured alive or eliminated, the Western Regions will definitely not insist on sending troops at that time, and this battle can be ended as soon as possible.

"Uncle Huang, this hall thinks that now is a good opportunity to take advantage of the victory and pursue! Don't let it go easily! Xuan Lang said in a deep voice, since Da Yuanlie was trapped, he has always advocated sending troops immediately.

Mu Liang had other thoughts in his heart.

"Ah Yue, what do you think?" After thinking for a moment, Mu Liang suddenly looked at the silent Xuan Yue and asked.

After such a long time, Mu Liang has already recognized Xuanyue, he is full of economic strategy, but he is never publicized, he is old and thoughtful, which Mu Liang never expected.

Xuan Yue pondered for a moment before she said: "This battle is extremely important, if you can capture Da Yuanlie in one fell swoop, it will naturally be the best." But I always felt that there was a fraud in this matter. ”

Not only this battle, but also several previous battles, he felt very strange. Obviously, Mu Liang's troop layout was extremely ingenious, but the enemy army can always come up with a way to crack it, just like ......

It's like being able to read their minds!

"Tell me about it." Mu Liang was interested when he heard this, and asked in a deep voice.

"We fought this battle outside of Twilight, and both sides suffered heavy losses. At that time, there was a flat land behind Da Yuanlie, and if you wanted to withdraw your troops, there was no obstacle at all. But he retreated with the rest of his soldiers to the complex canyon. And what makes me even more strange is that Da Yuanlie has been trapped for more than ten days, and the enemy has not sent reinforcements to help, which is really incomprehensible. ”

Xuan Yue was full of suspicion, and continued: "Let's talk about that Gu Xiao, the two armies have been fighting so far, and I have never seen him show up. Isn't it strange that you're a manager and don't show up? ”

After listening to Xuan Yue's words, Mu Liang nodded lightly.

What Xuan Yue said was exactly what he was thinking.

"The fifth brother is too cautious, Da Yuanlie was caught off guard by us at that time, where could he think of how to retreat, maybe he accidentally rushed into that canyon." Xuan Lang said in a deep voice.

He looked at Xuan Yue's gaze a little ruthless, in fact, it was not just Mu Liang, during this time, Xuan Lang also clearly felt Xuan Yue's superiority, which made him have to guard against it.

"On the battlefield, the slightest carelessness will kill you, and I don't dare to be careless." Xuan Yue chuckled and replied, he always seemed to be like this gentle and jade-like appearance.

"Uncle Huang, I still think that Da Yuanlie should be solved as soon as possible, this is the best opportunity. If you miss it, if you want to catch him in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult. Xuan Lang lifted his robe, knelt down, looked at Mu Liang and said.

Mu Liang pondered for a moment, how could he take this opportunity to get rid of Da Yuanlie, but if the other party really had an ambush, he was afraid that he would have to lose more soldiers.

But it's not a good idea to sit back and wait like this.

Perhaps, some traps and ambushes can only be found to deal with them if you step on them yourself.

"Okay, pass the order, put the army in order, and set off immediately! If you don't destroy the enemy, you won't return! ”

……

Half an hour later, Mu Liang led a thousand elite soldiers to the canyon.

This canyon is far more dangerous than the defense map, the entrance is very narrow, and only three people can pass through at a time. Inside, the cliffs are towering, reaching to the sky, which makes people intuitively depressed and insignificant.

"Okay, Mu Liang, Lao Tzu has finally waited for you!"

As soon as Mu Liang led his troops to the canyon, he saw Da Yuanlie and his soldiers surrounding, and after these few days of cultivation, they had almost recovered.

"Lord Wang, this matter is strange." Gu Lisheng leaned over and whispered in Mu Liang's ear.

After being trapped in the canyon for dozens of days, these people are still in such a spirit, if there is nothing strange in this, he must not believe it.

As if he had seen through Gu Lisheng's thoughts, Da Yuanlie sneered: "If you want to leave now, I'm afraid it's too late!" ”

No sooner had he finished speaking than there was a loud bang, and something exploded around them.

Everyone was shocked, it was artillery!

When they were in shock, Mu Liang and the others looked up, only to see that their back road had been blocked by a white-haired and white-bearded old man leading troops. If Mu Liang guessed correctly, this person who exudes bloodthirsty murderous aura is Gu Xiao, the general of the Western Domain!

"Haha! Mu Liang, aren't you the living king of Hades that everyone fears? Today, General Ben wants to have a good discussion with you! Da Yuanlie said with a laugh, and then rushed over with the soldiers while Mu Liang and the others were still stunned.

In the midst of artillery fire, the two soldiers and horses fought.

Mu Liang stepped forward with a sword in his hand, and since he is here today, he must capture Da Yuanlie!

The two of them were fierce in the chaos, and Mu Liang's martial arts were not under Da Yuanlie, so it was not too difficult to deal with him. It's just that the artillery brought by Gu Xiao caused great damage to the Da Yue soldiers, and after a short time, they suffered heavy casualties.

Da Yuanlie stepped on the stone wall and flew up, raising his big knife with both hands and slashing towards Mu Liang.

Mu Liang's heart was cold, there was a hard stone wall behind him, he had no way to avoid it, so he could only grit his teeth to meet it. He raised his sword above his head, and took Da Yuanlie's sword alive.

The sword flashed with cold light, and it was split in half, and Mu Liang was also injured by the powerful momentum of his big sword, and his body hit the stone wall hard, and finally fell to the ground again.

He covered his heart, swallowed the blood in his throat, stood up, and fought with Da Yuan Lie with his bare hands.

In the melee, a fierce gaze stared at Mu Liang.

"Oh no! Wang Cheng came to report that the Prime Minister's Mansion and the General's Mansion were assassinated by the enemy for treason, and they were all imprisoned! I heard that a young lady died in the Prime Minister's Mansion! ”

Such a voice suddenly came from the crowd, he was very close to Mu Liang, and these words also came clearly into Mu Liang's ears.

Mu Liang didn't think about the truth of these words at all, only heard him say that a young lady had died in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously turned his head to find the person who spoke.

At the moment when he was distracted, Gu Xiao's cannon barrel was already aimed at him.

In an instant, the cliff shook and collapsed, and black smoke rose everywhere.

"Lord Wang!"

"Uncle Huang!"

Gu Lisheng and the others hissed and shouted, but the terrain of this canyon is extremely complicated, and there are canyons in the canyon, they were stopped outside by the cliffs and soldiers, and they couldn't rush over.

And with that loud bang, the cliff collapsed, blocking the entrance to the canyon tightly!

Xuan Yue and the others rushed over desperately, stepping on the corpses of the enemy or their own people, and threw themselves in front of the messy pile of boulders.

Gu Xiao didn't know what to lead the troops and left.

Today's battle is strange, as if it is directly aimed at Mu Liang.

But now, they don't have the energy to think about the twists and turns anymore.

"It's going to happen!"

Xuan Yue whispered, then knelt on the ground and picked up the stones with her bare hands.

Xuan Lang patted him on the shoulder and said, "In such a situation, Uncle Huang is only afraid that it will be more auspicious." ”

Hearing this, Xuan Yue stood up abruptly and looked at the few remaining elite soldiers with a calm gaze.

"Live to see people! Death to see the corpse! ”
