Chapter 141: Rushing to the Frontier
Mu Liran left, left the palace again, left Zhan Cangzhen, this time, she hesitated again, whether to leave, Mu Wan persuaded her beside her, she couldn't listen to a word, Mu Liran walked for a long time, and when she was about to reach the edge of the imperial city, she went back again, she went back to the palace and locked herself in the room.
Mu Wan was happy when she saw Mu Liran leaving, but as a result, she watched Mu Liran come back and locked her out, and Mu Wan guarded her outside Mu Liran's room.
Zhan Cang Kai sent the secret guard to follow Mu Liran, afraid that something would happen to her, and when she was about to walk out of the imperial city, the secret guard was hesitating to come forward to persuade Mu Liran to come back, but Mu Liran returned by himself, watching Mu Liran return to the palace, the secret guard entered the palace and told Zhan Cang Kai, Zhan Cang Kai breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to go back.
After returning to the palace, Zhan Cangxuan saw Mu Wan guarding in front of the door of Mu Liran's room, and his anger rose again, he flicked his sleeves and went to the study, and sat in the study for half a night, in the middle of the night, Zhan Lingxuan's secret guard suddenly appeared and let Zhan Cangxuan enter the palace, Zhan Cangzhen had some bad premonitions in his heart, and he couldn't care about anything, so he hurriedly entered the palace.
This time, Zhan Lingxuan was waiting for him in the study, and Zhan Lingxuan knew that it must be the border, and there was a problem again.
Zhan Ling Xuan saw that Zhan Cang Yan was coming, and said tiredly: "Cang Zhen, something happened again, Linjiang State suddenly attacked, the army pressed the border, and the old general on the border couldn't deal with Tuoba Zhi's elite soldiers, in the past few days, he lost several battles, and several cities were occupied by Linjiang State." ”
Zhan Cang was surprised, when he first found Mu Liran some time ago, the two of them were discussing how to deal with the sudden attack of Linjiang Kingdom, but as a result, there were too many things when they came back, so they forgot about it, but they didn't expect that Linjiang Kingdom's actions were so fast that they were caught off guard.
Zhan Lingxuan continued: "I didn't expect the Linjiang Congress to attack at this time, I don't know how long the old general can last, the existing young generals in the DPRK have no experience in fighting the army with Tuoba Zhi at all, I think my Nuoda Dynasty has no one available." ”
Zhan Cangzhen did not hesitate, and said directly: "Brother, I'll go, I've been on the border for so many years, and I know the environment over there, and I'm more familiar with it than the old general, I'll go, help the old general, and I'll get twice the result with half the effort!" ”
Zhan Lingxuan had no choice, at the moment, only Zhan Cangzhen could deal with it, so he agreed, drafted a will, and sent Zhan Cangxuan to send troops, when the will reached the palace, it was just dawn, Mu Liran heard the will, and sat down on the chair.
Unexpectedly, the prince of Linjiang Kingdom moved so fast, Tuoba Zhi did not hesitate to send troops, Mu Liran was even more worried about the dream she had, she dreamed that day, Zhan Cangzhen received the holy decree to send troops, and died on the battlefield, she knew that Zhan Cangzhen would never become like that, but she was inevitably panicked.
Mu Liran sat on the chair, Mu Wan also heard the news, and waited at the door to see if Mu Liran would come out, Zhan Cang came to Mu Liran's door to take a look, Mu Wan was still there, and Mu Liran's door was still closed.
Zhan Cang Yan separated the door and said to Mu Liran: "Liran, you must also know that I am leaving, whether you blame me or not, Tuoba is ruthless and scheming, this time he suddenly brought troops here, he must have been planning for a long time, I will go this time, I am afraid that I will die for a lifetime, can I let me look at you again." ”
Mu Liran didn't speak, and Zhan Cangzhen continued to speak: "Liran, whether you believe me or not, I believe you, Sennar has done so many things to hurt his brother, and his brother still chooses to believe Sennar, but I obviously love you so much, why, you refuse to believe me." ”
"Liran, my feelings for you are really not as good as others, you suddenly broke into my world, caught me off guard, but now if you leave, it makes me feel tormented, I am so afraid that you will leave like that."
Mu Liran still didn't speak, Zhan Cangzhen was urged by the guards to leave, Zhan Cangzhen said the last few words: "Liran, it's good that you love me, don't love me, if I can't come back this time, I hope you forget me, don't think of me again, in this way, I leave without worry, it is also excellent, if there is an afterlife, I will definitely find you early and tell you that I love you, the words have come to this, Liran, cherish." ”
Zhan Cang Kai suppressed his desire to kill Mu Wan and left with the guards.
Mu Liran listened to these words, she couldn't cry in the room, she always understood Zhan Cangzhen's love, but she still hesitated for a long time, she followed Zhan Cangzhen to the battlefield, the battlefield was dangerous, she knew it, this farewell, I don't know when I will see you again, Mu Liran finally decided to go to see Zhan Cangzhen, she pushed open the door, Mu Wan's face suddenly didn't look good.
Mu Liran led her horse in the stable, chased all the way, and rushed to the foot of the imperial city, Zhan Cang Kai had already left the city, she ran up the city wall, looked at Zhan Cang Kai in the distance, Zhan Cang Kai was so far away from her, leaving him with a vague back that could no longer be blurred, that hazy feeling, as if he was away this time, he would not come back.
Mu Liran looked at this scene, and finally collapsed, shouting: "Zhan Cangzhen! Fight the cangs! ”
How could Zhan Cangzhen hear it, she still kept shouting, shouting until her voice was hoarse, until the army disappeared in front of her eyes, Mu Liran collapsed and sat by the city wall crying, she regretted that she didn't go out to see Zhan Cangzhen.
Mu Wan has been following behind Mu Liran, Mu Liran only saw Zhan Cangzhen's back, Mu Wan is happier than anyone else, but, seeing Mu Liran crying like this, she still feels distressed, she squatted beside Mu Liran, hugged Mu Liran, and put Mu Liran's head on her shoulder.
Mu Wan spoke: "Liran, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, don't cry anymore, I'm so sorry for you like this." ”
Mu Liran buried her face in Mu Wan's shoulder socket and cried: "I obviously love him, why am I always hurting him, I'm so afraid that she won't come back, I want to see him, I want to see him, obviously he is the only one here who really loves me, why do I do this......"
Mu Wan patted Mu Liran on the back: "Liran, don't be sad, the prince is gone, and me, I'm still here, I love you, I will take care of you for the prince, and I won't make you sad." ”
Mu Liran didn't listen to Mu Wan's words carefully, her mind was full of Zhan Cangzhen, after calming down, Mu Liran walked back Mu Ran, when she thought that after going back, she was the only one left in the palace of Nuoda, she was very sad, Mu Liran suddenly remembered what Mu Wan had just said, and felt very strange, how could Mu Wan say that kind of thing? Is it comforting her? How do you feel, Zhan Cangzhen is gone, and Mu Wan is happy?
Zhan Cangzhen rushed to the border with a large number of troops day and night, the situation on the border is getting worse day by day, the news reported every day is that there are a few more defeats, how many people have been killed and wounded, and a few cities have been lost, Zhan Cangzhen can't wait to rush to the border with wings.
As soon as the old general heard that Zhan Cangzhen was coming with reinforcements, he rushed directly out of the camp tent to greet him, and the gray-haired old general knelt in front of Zhan Cangzhen and asked for guilt: "Lord Wang, Minister Li Mao came to ask for guilt!" ”
Zhan Cang Kai helped up the old general and bowed his head slightly: "What is the crime of General Li, he has been guarding the border for this king for so long, how can he be guilty!" The general should not think too much, first assist the king to repel the enemy army, and the most important thing is to recover the city. ”
General Li took Zhan Cangzhen to the camp tent, which contained a map of the recent topographic map, as well as a map of the ambush area of Tuoba Zhi's army.
After listening, Zhan Cangzhen frowned, this Tuoba Zhi does not play cards according to common sense, it is elusive, although General Li has been on the battlefield for a long time and has excellent strategy, but, Tuoba Zhi's insidious tricks, General Li can't deal with it, no wonder he is losing and retreating.
Zhan Cangkai observed the situation and immediately ordered: "General Li led the team to pass through the mountains from the north road, cut off the enemy's rear road, and the deputy general took two pairs of people, separated from both sides to outflank, do not startle the snake, this king will lead people to attack head-on, and when the time comes, wipe them out!" ”
The generals received the order, and that night, Zhan Cang Zhi began to plan, in the middle of the night, when the guards in Tuoba Zhi's camp were the most relaxed, he launched an attack, and for a time the flames were in the sky, Tuoba Zhi's army suffered countless casualties, and the rest of the people fled in all directions, and only a few fish escaped from the heavy encirclement set by Zhan Cang Zhi.
Zhan Cangzhen intended to let them go back, and only when someone went back to report the news, Tuoba Zhi could realize that they had been defeated.
Tuoba Zhi was waiting in the camp for the news of victory, he had not yet received the news of Zhan Cang's arrival, and he was still wondering why the gray-haired old general would suddenly not send troops according to the road, and as a result, he waited for the news from a half-dead soldier.
"His Royal Highness the Prince! The god of war of the Qin State suddenly led troops to support, and raided our army camp in the middle of the night, resulting in a great defeat of our army, and only more than 1,000 people remained! ”
Tuoba Zhi stood up and crushed the cup in his hand: "What! The battle is coming! Why didn't anyone receive information to inform Hongu! ”
Seeing that Tuoba was furious, the soldier said timidly: "The people we sent out did not come back!" ”
Tuoba Zhi sat down in his chair, waved his hand, and let the soldier out.
After the soldiers went out, Tuoba Zhi dropped everything that could be dropped in the camp tent, he was not in that camp tent, that camp was where most of his troops were, and now it was almost completely wiped out, Tuoba Zhi was restless when he thought of Zhan Cang Zhi coming, Zhan Cang Zhi was one of his great enemies.
As Tuoba Zhi was pacing back and forth, a cold voice suddenly sounded beside him: "Waste! The courage of the horseman! If you lose a battle, you'll just drop things here! Is this how your ambition to control the world came from! ”
Tuoba Zhi seemed to be accustomed to Chi Wuji's elusive appearance, so he was not too surprised, and stood in place and retorted: "I'm a waste? When I won the seven cities of the Qin State in a row, why didn't you jump out and accuse me! Now that you have lost an account, you immediately jumped out, you have been like this since you were a child, after so many years, there is really no change at all! ”
Chi Wuji snorted coldly: "Tuoba Zhi! I really thought that if you became the prince, you had the right to accuse me! You don't follow the plan, send troops to attack the Qin State in advance! All the eyeliner chess pieces I arranged in the Imperial Palace of the Qin Kingdom are all useless! Am I not here to pave the way for you! Whether you decided to send troops in advance because of Mu Liran, or because you made a mistake in advance, I tell you, now, immediately, immediately! Collect my troops and go back to your Linjiang country! ”
