Chapter 229: Dawn

The soldiers of Da Yin, who had just rushed up and killed the Fengqiu soldiers, were dumbfounded, and immediately picked up the oil rocket that had been prepared long ago, ignited the fire, and shot at the oil rocket that was roaring over, but his skill was far from being as good as Qu Shang's, the two-phase oil rocket collided sonorously, and fierce sparks erupted in the air, and with a bang, the oil rocket on Da Yin's side was shot down by the other party, fell to the ground, and burned a big hole, and the opponent's oil rocket still smashed fiercely.

The soldiers hurriedly escorted Nie Qingwan away from the city wall.

When they hurriedly retreated under the city wall, there was a loud bang behind them, and the place where they had just stood was smashed out of a sinkhole by an oil rocket, and the city wall was precarious, unable to support such power, and with a loud bang, it collapsed.

An arrow missed, Qu Shang sneered, and quickly drew a signal arrow from the quiver on the other side and shot it into the air, and as that signal arrow exploded in the air, I don't know when the soldiers who left the country who were ambushed around rushed out, and the soldiers who were blackly suppressed covered the sky and the sun, and seemed to be more than locusts.

The locust battle has passed, but the real battlefield has just come.

This night was a thrilling for all the soldiers of Dayin, and the soldiers who fought bloodily died and fell. Wounded, the soldiers of Da Yin, who are known as the strongest combat power on this continent, also fell into a passive and dangerous situation in the face of a high disparity in numbers.

The soldiers experienced a catastrophe, and so did Nie Qingwan.

And this night really opened the trend of incompatibility between Da Yin and small countries.

--

After Nie Qingwan walked down the city gate, there was no safety, and the soldiers who left the country rushed out after the signal arrow was issued, not to mention that the soldiers of Dayin could not leave, even Feng Chang and Ren Ji and Nie Yin were also surrounded by regiments and fell into a bitter battle.

Qu Shang and the left wing had long since withdrawn from the battle circle, riding horses to look at the ruined city wall.

Qu Shang didn't say anything, just pulled out another oil rocket, coldly and ruthlessly hit the broken city gate, and the left wing also held the oil rocket, blowing up the remaining city walls with one blow.

When the city gate and the city wall collapsed behind her again and again, Nie Qingwan turned around, her dark and cold phoenix eyes were imprinted in the moonlight, looking very cold, she stood there, looking at the scene behind her, when the city gate and the city wall could no longer block the sight, she also saw clearly the miserable battlefield outside, the wails of the soldiers, the sound of tearing and killing, the sound of weapons colliding, the sound of bayonets inserting and pulling out the skin, it seemed that all of them had reached her ears, and Nie Qingwan's eyes were blurred with flesh and blood.

The city gate collapsed, and the people of Fengqiu rioted. The Queen Mother fell into a life-and-death dilemma for the first time, and Qi Yu was still in the mood to investigate the cause of Ren Teng's death, and directly ordered the slaughter of everyone in the palace, whether it was the harem concubines, children or innocent people.

Qi Yu thought, those who betray the Queen Mother, those who are disrespectful to the Queen Mother, and those who fall into such a crisis for the Queen Mother should die.

Overnight, the country of Fengqiu was destroyed.

Qi Yu led five thousand elite soldiers to Nie Qingwan's side, and seeing that the soldiers outside were in a fierce and bitter battle, he hurriedly asked the five thousand elite soldiers to quickly go out to kill the enemy, he twisted his eyebrows and said to Nie Qingwan: "Queen Mother, send signal arrows." “

The intention of sending the signal arrow was naturally to let Yin Xuan and Yin Tianye, as well as Nie Xifeng and Nie Buwei and Chen Wen, lead the troops back to relieve the siege.

Nie Qingwan stood there motionless, her eyes staring at the battlefield outside for a moment. Looking at the man who came on horseback in the distance, he whispered, "They will rush back, you have to believe them." “

Qi Yu also saw the two people who came on horseback, he almost didn't think about it, he stepped forward and pushed Nie Qingwan behind him, and said in a deep voice to a few Da Yin soldiers who were guarding Nie Qingwan: "You take the Queen Mother to avoid it." “

Nie Qingwan flicked her sleeves, walked past him, and stepped forward.

Qi Yu was in a hurry, and stretched out his hand to grab her: "Queen Mother!" “

Nie Qingwan said: "You are not his opponent, don't make senseless sacrifices, the person he wants is me, I will go and deal with him, if." She paused, raised her chin slightly, squinted her eyes, and said, "If I am held hostage by him, you will shoot me with an oil rocket, and together with him, don't let him get out of Fengqiu alive." “

Qi Yu's pupils shrank fiercely, and he almost roared: "Queen Mother, don't!" “

Nie Qingwan turned around and said coldly: "This is the Holy Decree of the Queen Mother, Qi Yu, take the decree." “

Qi Yu choked, his eyes instantly turned red, his teeth clenched, his lips trembled fiercely, his hands were even more pinched, and the hand holding the sword was even more protruding, but he finally knelt down little by little, and said in the most painful voice of his life: "Minister, take the order." “

As soon as his voice fell, Nie Qingwan turned around suddenly, and the hem of her skirt stirred up a fishy wind in the night.

Qi Yu looked at her, at that moment, the small back seemed to be pulled into a giant by the moonlight, she was marching outside, and the clothes she was wearing were not gorgeous, but even if she was plain, she couldn't hide the majesty of the Queen Mother on her body at all.

Qu Shang rode through the dilapidated city gate, and when he looked up, he saw the moment when the little queen mother turned around and walked, at that moment, Qu Shang sat on the horse, his eyes were shocked, and his heart palpitated.

The moonlight sprinkled on the girl's body with blood, her long hair ran down her shoulders, and a simple hosta pinned to her head, the jade was cyan, and the color of the clothes she wore was extremely similar, the figure was not high, but the momentum covered the world, the face was white and soft, the eyebrows were oblique and long, and the eyes were large and shiny, black and deep, soaked in the cold color of snow, the thin lips were slightly pursed, but the red and demonic were around, and the world was instantly discolored when the eyes were raised.

Qu Shang looked at her with a calm face.

He seemed to remember that someone said that the Empress Dowager Yin was beautiful and fragrant, and she was not as beautiful as a mortal at a young age, and when she grew up, she was a gem in the world, a stunner in the hearts of men, and some people ridiculed Emperor Yin Zu at that time, saying that he was not blessed to enjoy such a stunning stunner, and he still scoffed at it at the time.

He thought, beauty, isn't it just like that, no matter how beautiful she looks, when she takes off her clothes and goes to bed, it's all the same.

But now that he sees this little queen mother, he knows what beauty is.

Be. She is a long-term country and a city, but what makes her shine even more is the cold light like snow in her eyes and the power of a king that arises spontaneously all over her body.

Except for her, there is no woman in this world who can make men love and fear like her, but she can't help but covet and ridicule her, but she is willing to surrender deeply.

Qu Shang threw his hand, threw off the reins of the horse, turned over and dismounted.

Nie Qingwan stopped.

When the left wing saw Qu Shang dismount, he also dismounted.

Qu Shang walked in front of Nie Qingwan, and stopped when there were still five steps away, he looked at her from top to bottom, and after a while, he hooked his lips and sneered, took two steps forward, and stretched out his arm to hug her.

As soon as the arm reached in front of her, before it could reach down to her waist, she was stopped by a delicate hand.

Qu Shang raised his eyebrows, lowered his eyes and looked at the hand that blocked him, white, small, soft and boneless, glowing with a hazy white light under the moonlight, which made people want to worship.

Qu Shang immediately clasped her hand, the slippery touch made his heart flutter, he rolled his eyes in his heart, and a thought came to him, she was only thirteen years old, but he knew that he shouldn't, he still couldn't help but bow his head and kissed her hand.

Before the kiss was made, just when his lips were only a finger away from her hand, the girl spoke, two cold words: "Name." “

Qu Shang tsk, looking at the hand in front of him, he was not interested in kissing.

He grabbed her, pulled her to him, and looked at her beauty very seriously, and then smiled lowly and said: "Isn't the Empress Dowager Da Yin who knows astronomy and geography, then how can you not guess my name." “

Nie Qingwan looked up at him, didn't struggle or resist, only said calmly: "There are many monarchs in small countries, and there are many capable people, I can say their names one by one, but I really can't name one of the kings who can use oil rockets, even if you come, I'm not afraid that I know your name, say, what's your name?" “

Qu Shang smiled, picked her up and got on the horse, and after putting her in the saddle, he said, "Follow me back to China, and you will know." “

Nie Qingwan lowered her eyes, looked at Qi Yu who was so nervous in the distance that her eyes were congested, and slowly climbed down the saddle.

Qu Shang grabbed her, lowered his head, and looked at her calmly: "Nie Qingwan, you said that after I kidnapped you, will the Nie family defect?" “

Nie Qingwan said: "You can't take me away." “

Qu Shang sneered: "Yes, it's all on my horse, and I'm still so confident." “

Nie Qingwan said: "Do you know how the oil rocket came about? “

Qu Shang's eyes sank, and he looked at her bloodthirsty.

Nie Qingwan said: "It was invented by the fifth emperor with the blood of a race, their blood has the function of accumulating oil, and then that race was wiped out, and the next generation of kings replaced the blood of that race with something similar to blood lipids, you seem to have a strong hatred for Da Yin, and you can use oil rockets, then, I can probably guess your identity, and you will not hesitate to expose oil rockets to capture me alive, because you are confident enough to believe that you can capture me alive, let Da Yin." Even make the Nie clan embarrassed, obey your command, oh, your goal is not only me, but also the Sword of the Son of Heaven, if I guessed correctly, once the five generals led by Yin Xuan divide their troops out of Fengqiu, they will be ambushed by a large number of troops, that is also your handiwork, isn't it? “

Qu Shang lifted her up and smiled extremely coldly: "Since you know everything, then you say, can I succeed?" “

Nie Qingwan said, "No." “

Qu Shang said: "Why do you think I can't? “

Nie Qingwan said: "Do you know why I didn't bring veterans to the army, but instead brought a few up-and-comers with no experience?" “

Qu Shang squinted, looking willing to hear the details.

Nie Qingwan said: "Because they are sharper than veterans, have a worse temper, and have a higher spirit. “

Qu Shang was stunned, and he understood what she meant in a matter of seconds, and it meant that these people would have no scruples when they started, and if they had a bad temper, they would be completely furious, and the higher spirit meant that they would not admit defeat, so they would not lose.

Qu Shang wanted to laugh at her, but he couldn't laugh at it, he suddenly felt that her eyes were like a mang's back, and it seemed to confirm her words, the Da Yin soldiers who were almost wiped out outside suddenly had high ambitions, looked up to the sky and shouted, and when he looked back, he found that a group of Da Yin soldiers who had returned from not knowing where they had returned rushed into the battle, and after a while, another group of returning Da Yin soldiers rushed into the battle, and then, another group of Da Yin soldiers rushed into the battle, and then another, another group.

Although their numbers seemed to have decreased a lot, as soon as the five groups of Da Yin soldiers converged, they were not much different from the soldiers he brought, and the battle situation took a sharp turn, and in the face of the battle came five young generals with blood all over their bodies.

Nie Xifeng came back first, because the country of Fen was relatively weak, Yin Tianye was the second to come back, Chen Wen was the third to come back, Nie Buwei came back for the fourth, and Yin Xuan was the last to come back, because Nanfeng was too strong, and Qu Shang wanted to seize the sword of the Son of Heaven, so he must have set up a more sophisticated ambush for Yin Xuan's army, among the five people, Yin Xuan was also the most seriously injured, but fortunately, all five people rushed back, and they could come back, which meant those ambushes. Defeated, those five countries, perished.

Looking at the five people who came in the bloody fire and the cold moonlight, Qu Shang's face was extremely gloomy, he grabbed Nie Qingwan's hair and grabbed her neck, Nie Qingwan's painful scalp trembled, and her breathing began to be difficult after his neck was choked by him, but she didn't cry out of pain, even if her scalp had a kind of distress that was about to be torn off by him, she didn't move, and even her expression didn't change in the slightest.

Yin Xuan walked through the city gate and saw Nie Qingwan's smooth and beautiful hair being vigorously grasped by the man, and saw her slender and beautiful neck being strangled by the man's big hand. His pupils shrank fiercely, and a surging anger swept all his senses, he was actually extremely tired, he was covered in wounds, and blood was flowing down his sleeve, but he didn't care, he just looked at Nie Qingwan with red eyes and tried her best to endure the pain, watching the man pull her hair, he faintly saw a strand of hair falling with blood.

At that moment, his heart seemed to have fallen into the Infernal Hell.

He almost shouted angrily and pulled out the sword of the Son of Heaven, and slashed at the man.

However, as soon as he took a step, the man spoke up, and said, "Before you kill me, I will kill your queen mother first, and see if your sword is fast or my hand is fast." “

As he spoke, the hand that was choking Nie Qingwan's throat increased again.

Yin Xuan clearly heard Nie Qingwan's dying voice, Yin Xuan was stunned, his heart burst out with endless pain, the pace of rushing up was like that, and the hand holding the sword was even more vigorous to crush the hilt, he stared at the man's hand and the man's face.

At that moment, Yin Xuan thought, I must personally beat you into hell, and you will never be reborn!

His eyes rolled slightly, looking at Nie Qingwan, Yin Xuan's thin lips pursed fiercely, and he stood there still.

Nie Xifeng and Nie Buwei, as well as Yin Tianye and Chen Wenqi, also had ugly faces. Several pairs of eyes repeatedly looked at Nie Qingwan's face and the man's hands.

They were people who practiced martial arts, and of course they knew that if that man wanted to kill Nie Qingwan, it would be completely easy.

They were very anxious and worried, but they didn't dare to move.

They didn't dare to gamble with the Queen Mother's life.

lost the life of the Queen Mother, even if the war was won, even if this person was captured alive, they would not have the joy of victory.

And in fact, if they lost the life of the Queen Mother, they just lost.

Yin Xuan stood at the front, strongly endured the thought in his heart of rushing up and dismantling the man, and forced himself to calm down, yes, he needs to be calm, but how can he be calm, his girl is being choked by this man at the moment, painfully tortured.

Yin Xuan's eyes were blood-red, and he said word by word: "Let go of her." “

Qu Shang raised his eyebrows: "It's okay to let her go, give me the sword of the Son of Heaven." “

Yin Xuan let go of the Son of Heaven Sword without thinking about it, Yin Tianye frowned, and immediately walked over, blocked Yin Xuan, and took advantage of the situation to clasp his hand, and whispered to him: "Don't fall for him." “

Yin Xuan pushed him away forcefully, and said to Qu Shang, "Give her to me, and the Son of Heaven Sword will give it to you." “

Nie Qingwan's throat was choked by the man, and she couldn't speak, but after hearing Yin Xuan say this. She lifted her eyelids coldly and stared at him.

Yin Xuan knew that she would blame him, but he would rather not have the Sword of the Son of Heaven than let her be safe.

If she is gone, what is the use of him asking for the sword of the Son of Heaven, and what is the point of him being the emperor!

He doesn't want anything, he just wants her to be well.

Qu Shang's goal is to capture the Queen Mother and seize the Sword of the Son of Heaven, if both can succeed, then of course it is the best, but if the two can only choose one of them, then of course he chooses the Sword of the Son of Heaven, even though this Queen Mother is heartwarming, but for him women are just a tool to relieve the loneliness of the night and vent their hopes, compared with the Sword of the Son of Heaven, the Sword of the Son of Heaven is naturally more important.

It should still be very cost-effective to exchange a queen mother for a sword of the Son of Heaven.

Qu Shang said, "Throw the sword over." “

Yin Xuan stood still, only his eyes locked on Nie Qingwan's painful face, and whispered, "You loosen her hair first, you dragged her painfully, and also took your hand off her neck." “

Qu Shang smiled: "You are very filial to her, and it is in vain for her to send him to the position of the prince." “

He let go of his hand, glanced at the little girl who was coughing violently with pity, and said playfully: "You have a good life, you have to come here to suffer, you have to be rich and noble, but you have to be a dead soul, what do you say you want?" Emperor Yinzu's old ghost is dead, you don't need to die for him. “

He glanced at Yin Tianye again, and said with a smile: "No matter how much you do, the Yin royal family may not be grateful, and maybe you still feel that your hand is stretched too long." “

Nie Qingwan ignored him, only coughing uncomfortably, her thin back arched on the saddle, it looked like it would break as soon as it broke, and Yin Xuan's heart was constricted and cramped again and again.

He picked up the sword of the Son of Heaven, took a step forward, and said to Qu Shang, "Give her to me." “

Nie Qingwan raised her head, her eyes looked at him like cold ice, slowly, she opened her mouth, Yin Xuan thought she was going to talk to him, and waited silently for her to speak, but she opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything to him, she just shouted two words: "Qi Yu." “

Qi Yu's eyes were red, he had already put an oil rocket in his hand, and now he also understood why the Queen Mother had to give him such a decree just now, because the Queen Mother knew that the five generals would rush back, and the prince would rush back, and her intention in dragging this man was to let Dayin's soldiers wipe out those enemy troops outside the city, and at the same time, force him to the point where he had to be ordered to kill her and then kill this man to end the war.

She knew very well that for the sake of the Son of Heaven Sword. He will surely shoot this arrow.

When Qi Xuan was still hesitating, Yin Xuan was already a few steps closer, and Nie Qingwan suddenly shouted: "Qi Xuan, do you want to resist the decree!" “

Qi Yu raised his head to the sky and screamed bitterly, picked up the oil rocket, lit the fire, pulled the string, took the bow, and shot coldly at the Qu Shang on horseback.

When the arrow left the string, the flames burst into the sky, and almost in the blink of an eye, the arrow roared like a giant dragon and struck Qu Shang and Nie Qingwan fiercely.

This accident came too suddenly, and almost in the blink of an eye, the arrow was close in front of him, and when the fire spread into the pupils of his eyes, Yin Xuan reacted to what had happened, and he shouted: "Wanwan! “

Yin Tianye, Nie Xifeng, Nie Buwei, and Chen Wenqi didn't react, and the situation changed so much in the blink of an eye. When Nie Qingwan called Qi Yu, they didn't understand why she called Qi Yu, but now they figured it out, but they didn't have time to save it, the arrow was too fast.

Nie Qingwan on horseback felt the raging fire rushing to her face, she looked at Qu Shang with a sneer, Qu Shang was already so shocked that it was difficult to retract, he glared at her: "You crazy woman! “

He grabbed her and threw it at the rushing oil rocket, and then when the generals rushed over to save her like arrows, he bent down and slapped the horse's belly violently, and the horse was struck by the internal force, and roared and dusted off the horse's hooves, and rushed out of the city, and the left wing immediately followed.

Nie Qingwan was thrown at the oil rocket, and her long hair was blown away. The skirt flutters, imprinted in the moonlight, like a spirit burning on fire, and will be plunged into the funeral of fire.

Yin Xuan's dark pupils shrank fiercely, and he jumped on tiptoe, the moment he hugged her, the flames engulfed him, and he lost consciousness at that moment, but he tightly protected the girl in his arms, and then fell to the ground unsupportively, with a loud bang to the ground, the oil rocket smashed into the soldiers in the distance, and the city was quiet all of a sudden, and the arm of the person who fell to the ground tightly protected the girl's head.

Both men's clothes were scorched. She was not injured, but he was burned all over his back by the flames.

When everything was calm, Yin Tianye picked up the Son of Heaven Sword and protected it in his arms, and walked up to see Yin Xuan and Nie Qingwan, Nie Xifeng and Nie Buwei and Chen Wenqi also rushed up.

The battle outside also subsided at the same moment, and all the enemy troops were killed, and the soldiers of Dayin suffered heavy casualties, and the rest barely held on to their swords, licking their wounds in blood under the moonlight.

Feng Changqiang supported himself to see the casualties of the soldiers.

Nie Yin and Ren Ji were also wounded, took a look at the battlefield full of dead bodies, each withdrew his sword, and returned to the city with a miserable body full of unknown whether it was his own blood or the blood of the enemy.

As soon as I went back, I saw Nie Xifeng and Nie Buwei, as well as Yin Tianye and Chen Wen, surrounded by one place, with a dignified expression.

Nie Yin's face changed drastically, and he immediately rushed forward.

Ren Ji's face also changed and he ran up.

Nie Yin pushed everyone away, and only then did she see the situation clearly, Yin Xuan hugged Nie Qingwan tightly, and the clothes of the two of them turned black into charcoal, and their faces became black into charcoal.

Nie Yin's heart tightened, squatted down to probe Nie Qingwan's snort and pulse, and found that Nie Qingwan was still breathing, and after her pulse was also beating, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he went to probe Yin Xuan's breath and pulse, although it was very weak, but it was good, he didn't die.

Nie Yin reached out to pull Yin Xuan's hand, Nie Xifeng frowned lightly and said, "I just tried it, but I can't pull it away." “

Nie Yin paused, but still stretched out his hand to pull Yin Xuan's hand, and the result was indeed as Nie Xifeng said, even though Yin Xuan lost consciousness at this moment, his hand was tightly clasped on Nie Qingwan's head as if he had the consciousness of his master.

Nie Yin said, "Go and call Nie Zong." “

After Nie Zong came, he smeared a medicine on Yin Xuan's hand, and after a while, Yin Xuan's hand automatically let go.

Nie Yin picked up Nie Qingwan who was in a coma and went back to Fengqiu Palace first, Yin Tianye picked up Yin Xuan and also returned to Fengqiu Palace first, Nie Xifeng and Nie Buwei and Chen Wen went outside the city to check the casualties of the soldiers with Feng Chang, and then helped the injured soldiers back to the city together to find a place to relocate. Nie Zong first saw Yin Xuan and Nie Qingwan, and then went to see the soldiers, because there were too many injured people, Nie Zong couldn't be busy alone, so Nie Xifeng and Nie Buwei and Chen Wenqi led people to find someone who knew medical skills among the surviving Fengqiu people.

The night of bloody battle ended, the sky dawned, and when the first rays of sunlight shone in, Nie Qingwan also woke up slowly, she was not seriously injured, she was just unconscious, and all the injuries were blocked by Yin Xuan, so he was seriously injured, extremely serious.
