It was late at night, and the soldiers of the Western Regions repeated their old tricks and attacked the Dachen military camp at night again.

With the experience of the last time, their march this time was extremely hidden, and Rao Shiwei Chi Zongyu still sent people to stand in the corner tower for twelve hours to watch, but still did not find any trace of them.

And this time they didn't attack in one fell swoop, but first sent a few people with strong martial arts to beat down a few soldiers in the corner tower to prevent them from ventilating and reporting the news.

By the time the shouts of killing came, it was already too late.

The victory that was finally won was not happy for a few days before he was defeated again, and Yu Chizong gritted his teeth angrily.

They have taken a thousand steps back, and if they are retreating, there is no way to retreat!

"Little General, what should we do?" Lian Rong said with a sad face.

"Since they have attacked us again and again, then don't blame us for playing tricks!" As soon as Wei Chi Zongyu patted the book case, he sneered and said, "Find a few brothers with good kung fu and go to find out the enemy's situation." They have just been victorious, and it must be time for triumph! You let them take a good look at the food and grass of the Western Regions army, and how the guards are. ”

As soon as he said this, Lian Rong instantly understood what was going on: "Little general, do you want to burn their grain and grass?" ”

"Yes, without food and grass, I see how they will fight this battle!" As soon as Yu Chi Zongyu waved his hand, someone immediately stepped back and prepared.

After making preparations, Yu Chi Zongyu changed his armor and personally led people to burn grain and grass.

"Oh no! The grain and grass are gone! Let's put out the fire! "The army of the Western Regions was in chaos, and Yu Chi Zongyu fled with his people taking advantage of the chaos.

However, when he escaped, he was discovered, "What a person! ”

Yu Chi Zongyu didn't reply, and ran forward desperately with a few soldiers.

An arrow flew from behind, and Yu Chi Zongyu didn't notice it at all, he was actually shot in the right shoulder by the arrow!

"Little General!" Several soldiers beside him carried Yu Chi Zongyu back to the Dachen military camp.

Lian Rong saw that Yu Chi Zongyu was injured, and he was in a hurry, "Why is the little general injured?" ”

Someone immediately reported the ins and outs of the matter, and Lian Rong sighed helplessly: "Little general, why are you embarrassed yourself? It's a big deal, let's talk about it next time. ”

While bandaging Wei Chi Zongyu, Wei Chi Zongyu grinned in pain, but he still endured it and said, "I seriously injured them this time, and I think they can be less proud." He looked back at his right shoulder, "It's just that now my right shoulder is injured, and I'm afraid I won't be able to kill the enemy in battle." ”

Lian Rong had no choice but to send the news back to the capital again.

Throne room.

Xia Jingnian threw the fold to the ground, "What the hell is going on!" Could it be that we can't defeat the Western Regions Army! ”

The palace people knelt on the ground, trembling, "The emperor is angry." ”

Xia Jingnian sat with a gloomy face for a while, then got up suddenly and walked in the direction of Fengluan Palace.

Fengluan Palace. At this time, Ji Qiang was already eight months pregnant.

Seeing Xia Jingnian entering the house full of anger, Ji Qiang waved her hand and retreated from the palace, leaving her alone to accompany Xia Jingnian.

"What's going on?" Ji Qiang asked gently.

Xia Jingnian handed the fold to Ji Qiang, and after Ji Qiang read it, she understood why Xia Jingnian was so angry.

"What is the emperor's plan?" Ji Qiang knew that he already had the answer in his heart.

"I want to ...... Royal Driver's Expedition. When he said this, Xia Jingnian was also very reluctant, reached out and touched Ji Qiang's belly, and the child in his stomach kicked Xia Jingnian, as if he didn't want his father to leave. Chase Yo Literature

"I'm going to see the prince born, I can't stand you, and I can't accompany you when you need me the most." Xia Jingnian felt very powerless and sorry, but she didn't know how to compensate Ji Qiang.

Ji Qiang smiled and said, "It's okay, the concubine can do it by herself." ”

"Besides, you are fighting for the people of the world, and you are the emperor of the people of the world, everything you do is for the world." Ji Qiang understood Xia Jingnian's decision very well, and took his hand, "Go ahead, the concubine will not be your worries." ”

Xia Jingnian kissed Ji Qiang's hand and said affectionately: "You will not be my worries, but you will be the expectation and motivation for me to return to the dynasty as soon as possible." ”

It is rare for Xia Jingnian to say such affectionate words, and Ji Qiang is still a little unaccustomed to it for a while.

On this day, Xia Jingnian stayed in Ji Qiang's Fengluan Hall as usual.

"Queen, I haven't eaten meat for a long time. Seeing that my expedition is imminent, will you feed me? Xia Jingnian looked at Ji Qiang pitifully.

Ji Qiang frowned and said helplessly: "You're not afraid of hurting the child?" ”

"He's already so old, he should be considerate of his father and mother." I was also afraid of hurting the child before, so Ji Qiang never went to sleep, but Xia Jingnian didn't go to the other concubines in the harem, so he endured it.

This time he was going to go on the expedition, and it seemed that he was really uncomfortable.

Sighing helplessly, Ji Qiang complied with Xia Jingnian's wishes.

The expedition was imminent, and in addition to arranging the army, Xia Jingnian also ordered someone to invite Yu Mei and Bai to enter the palace to accompany Ji Qiang.

is not only to accompany Ji Qiang to give birth, but also to accompany her until she is out of confinement.

What palace maids and grandmothers are not as intimate and cordial as their own mother's family.

The day before Xia Jingnian's expedition, he specially came to Fengluan Hall to accompany Ji Qiang.

On the day of the expedition, Ji Qiang held up her eight-month pregnant belly and personally sent Xia Jingnian on the expedition.

He was dressed in bright yellow armor, sitting on a tall horse, and he was so high-spirited.

Xia Jingnian looked back at Ji Qiang deeply, and she waved and smiled at him.

"Son, your father will return in triumph, won't he?" Ji Qiang stroked her stomach and asked softly.

The child in the belly kicked Ji Qiang, and she laughed when she kicked it, "Okay, okay, got it." Don't worry, after your father returns from victory, he will definitely accompany you every day and play with you, okay? ”

The child kicked Ji Qiang twice.

The army had already left, Xia Jingnian's figure had disappeared from sight, Ji Qiang turned around, and prepared to return to Fengluan Palace.

When she turned around, she gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Yu Mei and Bai entered the palace two hours after Xia Jingnian's expedition, and the two met Ji Qiang, first saluted and greeted, and then sat down to gossip.

"The emperor has issued several holy decrees this time, and his mother and your younger siblings must protect you well, don't make it difficult for you to go." Although Ji Qianggui is the queen, they are not completely ignorant of the situation in the palace, so they naturally have to be cautious.

Ji Qiang smiled helplessly, "Isn't it, the queen mother is not allowed to summon, the concubines are not allowed to visit, and the guards and eunuchs must accompany the guards and eunuchs when entering and leaving, etc., which makes people feel a headache when they hear it." ”

"You still have a headache? According to my mother, that's protecting you. Bai Shi took Ji Qiang's hand and said.

Before Ji Qiang could reply, outside the door, Xi'er hurriedly came to Bao, "Queen Mother, no, Liu Rou is here with the Queen Mother!" ”

Ji Qiang only reacted for a moment. She has been eight months pregnant, and no concubine in the palace has seen her, and she has always been protected by Xia Jingnian. Now that Xia Jingnian is gone, of course they can't hold back.
