"Master, Yue Hua's army has broken through the first line, I'm afraid it will come in soon!"

At this moment, the people outside came to urge again, Beigong Pheasant Li was the general who led the troops in this battle, and this battle with Yue Hua needed him to personally command and control it from beginning to end. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】

The soldier who came in glanced at Ji Lingnan beside him, and said anxiously, "Should we retreat or continue to defend?" ”

"Guard."

Beigong Pheasant Li just glanced at Ji Lingnan, who was standing still, and spit out a word in silence.

Ji Lingnan was stunned, his eyebrows tightened more and more, and he looked at Beigong Pheasant Li's eyes as if there was something more.

Beigong Pheasant didn't look at him again, turned around, and whispered to Xia Xiaoxiao, "I went to see before, don't run around if your feet are inconvenient, just let the soldiers look for me if there is anything." ”

Xia Xiaoxiao nodded, he looked at her, smiled slightly, and dropped a kiss between her eyebrows, before getting up and walking out.

It wasn't until the white figure was far out of the tent and disappeared in the dark night that Xia Xiaoxiao breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"What should I do, Beigong Yu's people are here, I look at his appearance, it doesn't look like he plans to hand you over easily."

Ji Lingnan walked to the chair where Beigong Pheasant sat and sat down, picked up an orange placed next to him and peeled it and ate it, looking like he had nothing to do with himself.

"Do you know what's going on outside now?"

As soon as Beigong Pheasant left, Xia Xiaoxiao finally couldn't hold it back, snatched the orange in Ji Lingnan's hand, and asked anxiously.

"Sister, from Beigong Yu's attack to the present in the middle of the night, you are all with Beigong Pheasant Li, you don't know, how can I know?"

Ji Lingnan glanced at her angrily, snatched the orange from her hand again, and stuffed it into her mouth one by one.

Xia Xiaoxiao was immediately deflated, the news that Anzi brought over here was insignificant, if it was really urgent, it was impossible for Beigong Pheasant to let her know, she couldn't know what the battle situation was on the front line now, according to calculations, Beigong Yu had at most 300,000 horses in his hands, not counting the losses that had been lost before, Beigong Pheasant was more than half as fast as he was, not counting Beigong Pheasant's own forces, how should Beigong Yu fight?

"But ......" Ji Lingnan ate half of it, and suddenly said loudly, "Beigong Yu has the way of Beigong Yu to fight, Beigong Pheasant has its own means to defend Beigong Pheasant, although there is a huge disparity between soldiers and horses, but in this battle, the outcome is really hard to say." ”

The war drums in the distance were beating rapidly, and such a midnight was the best time to attack.

Xia Xiaoxiao hurriedly leaned over, "What do you say?" ”

Ji Lingnan was bored and lifted Erlang's legs, his toes shook slightly, looking at the figures coming and going outside, the hissing sound that filled his ears, and said slowly, "Do you know why the front-line battle situation is so tense at this time, and Beigong Pheasant still has time to be here with you**?" ”

He said and glanced at Xia Xiaoxiao by the way.

"You're a**!"

Xia Xiaoxiao was about to hit Ji Lingnan's head with a violent shudder, but his hand was in the air, but it didn't fall for a long time.

Ji Lingnan just closed his eyes and opened them again, just when he saw Xia Xiaoxiao's somewhat distracted appearance, he sighed helplessly, "After thinking about it, it's not a difficult problem, most of Beigong Pheasant's hands are Chu Boyuan's soldiers now, Chu Boyuan wants to fight Beigong Yu, then he has to rely on Beigong Pheasant, Beigong Yu came over, Beigong Pheasant has to rely on this help to eliminate the power of Beigong Yu and Chu Boyuan at the same time." ”

In other words, they must rely on each other's means to stabilize their power, and once one of them becomes stronger, it will pose a threat to them.

When Beigong Pheasant came back, he had already changed into another set of dark clothes, and for a moment, Xia Xiaoxiao thought that Beigong Yu was coming, and he was a little distracted.

"It's late at night," Beigong Pheasant glanced at Ji Lingnan on the side lightly, and ordered in a low voice, "Come on, send Ji Gongzi back." ”

Xia Xiaoxiao was about to stand up, but Beigong Pheasant had already stepped forward two steps to help her up, and said in a low voice, "Tomorrow we will switch camps, and I will have people come over to clean up later." ”

"Where are you going?"

Ji Lingnan was taken down, and she helped his arm, her fingertips unconsciously forced.

"Retreat."

Beigong Pheasant Li shook her hand, knowing that she was worried, and whispered comfort, "Beigong Yu is fine, he only ordered someone to hit this side, not to mention that Yue Huajun is not so unbeaten." ”

Xia Xiaoxiao looked at him whispering to her, and a touch of sourness surged up in her heart, and she couldn't speak for a while, it was clear that he wanted to fight with Beigong Yu, and Beigong Yu was fine, so what about him?

She didn't want to ask anymore, asking too much, no matter who won or lost, it was just heartbreaking.

The night passed, not only did the fighting not stop, but it became more and more intense, but, no matter what, those outside voices always couldn't come here, and the Beigong Pheasant Statue also went out before the trip, and never left, and no one brought in the information.

This night, long and endless, those resounding in the ears of the sound of war are full of nerves, not reassuring for a moment, Xia Xiaoxiao slept in the first half of the night, and in the second half of the night, he could only lie in half awake and half asleep, every time he was woken up by those sounds, when he opened his eyes, he could always see the figure of Beigong Pheasant Li reading a book with low eyebrows behind the bookcase.

On the second day, the order to retreat had been issued, and 2,000 people were left in front of the garrison, and the rest were all retreated in the direction of the capital of Nanming Kingdom.

On the third day, the entire Nanming army withdrew from Ningjiu Village, and Yue Hua's army pursued the victory and approached the rear of the Nanming army.

On the fourth day, the Nanming army lost more than 10,000 people, and once again left 5,000 people in the mountains and forests to stop Yue Hua's army, buying time to retreat.

On the fifth day, Beigong Pheasant Li put Ji Lingnan back, leaving only four words for Beigong Yu: fair trade.

The moment Beigong Yu saw the soft handwriting in the madness, his fingertips were forced, and a piece of paper turned into pieces in his hand, and his eyes were gloomy.

General Ji was on the side, and he also saw those four words, and cautiously glanced at Beigong Yu's face, and hurriedly buckled his head, "Your Majesty, it was Weichen's unfavorable handling that made Xiao'er fall into the hands of Beigong Pheasant, and when he returned to Beijing this time, Weichen was willing to be punished!" ”

"Dad, I don't blame you for this,"

Ji Lingnan also stepped forward, this matter is also because of him, otherwise Xia Xiaoxiao would not have come out of the palace, but in the blink of an eye, he saw Beigong Yu's expression that was about to be angry at the next moment, and couldn't help but comfort, "The emperor doesn't have to worry too much, the second child is in the hands of Beigong Pheasant, I don't think anything should happen to that look." ”

But no, Xia Xiaoxiao's leg is just lame and not broken, Beigong Pheasant is reluctant to let her take two steps even on the road, where can she be wronged?

But as soon as the words were finished, Lu Wuxian, who had been standing beside Beigong Yu, hurriedly glanced at him, and then he saw that Beigong Yu looked at him with more anger in his eyes, it was like the frost of that winter moon day, piercing cold to people's bones.

He suddenly stopped talking with interest, and finally picked up a life.

Lu Wuxian turned to look at Beigong Yu again, Ji Lingnan didn't know, but he knew very well, how could Xia Xiaoxiao be injured in Beigong Pheasant's hand? Now the relationship between Beigong Yucai and Xia Xiaoxiao has eased, if Beigong Pheasant Li intervenes again......

"Your Majesty, should we continue to chase?"

Lu Wuxian asked in a deep voice, Beigong Pheasant Li's continuous retreat was undoubtedly to lead them in the direction of Nanming Guodu, even if he knew that there was a trap ahead, after all, if he didn't chase him, Xia Xiaoxiao might really have to stay in his hands all the time, not to mention, if Beigong Pheasant really wanted to use her to threaten Beigong Yu.

"Chase!"

Beigong Yu looked at the peaks rising and falling in the distance, spit out a word in a deep voice, flicked his sleeves, turned around and got on the horse.

Lu Wuxian and General Ji glanced at each other, and reluctantly gave a military order to follow.

Until the sixth day, the two armies have their own losses, but it has always been a retreat, an army pursued, on this day, there was a heavy fog in the sky, and the lush trees in the mountains and forests near night were not visible from a hundred meters away, there was no other way, Beigong Pheasant Li could only let the army stop.

"Master, the fog ahead is too big, the mountain is steep, if we go further, I'm afraid it's not safe."

The soldier who had gone to investigate came back and whispered a word of reciprocation.

Beigong Pheasant furrowed his eyebrows, and Anzi stepped forward again, "But master, if you don't move forward in this weather, Yue Hua's army will immediately catch up." ”

Then Anzi glanced at Xia Xiaoxiao, who was sitting in front of Beigong Pheasant, and the words he wanted to say paused on his lips.

said don't worry, but in the end, it is the army of the two armies, Beigong Pheasant Li will always hit Beigong Yu, and these, Beigong Pheasant Li obviously doesn't want her to know.

Xia Xiaoxiao got off the horse, and the injuries on her body in the past two days were almost healed, and then turned her head to Beigong Pheasant and left, "I'll go elsewhere for convenience." ”

Saying that, he didn't wait for Beigong Pheasant to reply, he took a torch in the hand of the soldier on the side, and the person chose a direction with dense woods and limped, Beigong Pheasant pursed his lips and said nothing, his eyes signaled, and a soldier on the side immediately dismounted and followed far away.

"Master," Seeing that the people were far away, Anzi continued what he had just said, "Beigong Yu caught up from behind this time with less than 30,000 people, and I suspect that there is an ambush ahead." ”

The dense fog that permeated the mountains did not disperse for a long time, and Beigong Pheasant squinted slightly, "Send the order to go down, go forward on foot, and order someone to extinguish all the torches in your hands." ”

"But ...... master"

It is difficult to move forward in such a steep mountain field, let alone in such a foggy night, even with torches, they may not be able to see the way, and now that the torches are extinguished, how can they walk?

But Beigong Pheasant Li just said lightly, "Let everyone be vigilant, tonight, Beigong Yu's people will call." ”

Xia Xiaoxiao walked a long way, until the rows of firelight in the distance turned into bright dots, then stopped, and then looked back, saying that it was convenient, she just kicked the pebbles under her feet, and then stuck the torch in the somewhat soft ground, and sat down on the spot.

An Zi didn't know what to say, and she also knew that Fang Cai meant to drive her away.

She rubbed her feet that were a little sore not long after she left, and then she looked up and saw the direction of the group, the torches in the hands of those people were extinguished one by one, she twisted her eyebrows, at this time, Beigong Yu's people chased after her, did they want to ambush?

Glancing at the torch that had been planted in the ground, it was indeed thick with fog, and only by the light of the fire could she barely see the direction of the person, she hurriedly stood up, then if she fled backwards at this time......

"Click......"

Before the footsteps were raised, the sound of dry branches being trampled off behind him came into his ears, Xia Xiaoxiao was shocked, turned his head and shouted at the figure, "Who?" ”

It's sometimes convenient for her to go out, and Beigong Pheasant will indeed let people follow, but no one dares to follow so close......

The cold wind blew in gusts, and the shadow cast by the cluster of firelight on the ground swayed, and then Xia Xiaoxiao really saw a figure barely appearing under a shadow not far away.

Xia Xiaoxiao's thought that had just risen was dispelled again, and he hurriedly said to the man, "Don't come here, I'll be fine right away." ”

Only then did she remember that she had been out for a long time, and then she picked up the torch on the ground, and when she looked down, a pair of red boots appeared where the fire could illuminate, she froze, and then slowly raised her head......

There was no light in the dark, only a firelight could barely see some things clearly, and Xia Xiaoxiao's face gradually turned pale under the red reflected with a little firelight.

A quarter of an hour passed.

The cold permeates in the middle of the night.

"Master," the soldier who had just gone to follow him came back, holding a torch that had been extinguished, "and this is the only one to find." ”

As soon as the voice fell, the people around him quickly felt the sudden cooling temperature, and the person who went to investigate immediately knelt down, "Master Ma, my subordinates have followed at the safest distance, and I really haven't heard any movement around......"

"What are you doing in a daze? Don't send anyone to find it yet! ”

Beigong Pheasant turned over and dismounted, and walked towards the forest where Xia Xiaoxiao went, An Zi hurriedly instructed people, and followed with his feet, "Master, Miss Xia has only left for a short time, she should be able to find it soon, you don't have to worry too much." ”

Having said that, from the time they found that Xia Xiaoxiao was gone, it was only a quarter of an hour, but the mountains and forests were all foggy, and if there was no light in the middle of the night, they couldn't see their five fingers. Not to mention, if Xia Xiaoxiao has the intention to hide.

Beigong Pheasant took the torch and illuminated a piece of land that had been trampled under his feet, and then the light shone along the road, and those branches fell to the ground one by one, obviously being trampled on.

"Master, it's not good!"

A person hurriedly ran over from the front, and Beigong Pheasant threw a torch, "Someone has found it?" ”

"No, it's the front," the soldier ran out of breath, "Beigong Yu's people really bypassed the back and attacked from the front!" ”

As he expected.

But Beigong Pheasant's face still changed, and Anzi said in a deep voice, "Master, could it be Beigong Yu and Miss Xia......"

Beigong Pheasant pursed his lips, and the waves along the way finally changed, and his eyes sank, "The whole army, respond to the enemy!" ”

"Yes!"

A mighty sound broke through the sky, and the night sky instantly returned to fire.

Between the mountains and fields, the night was pervasive, no one could see through, the two seas of soldiers were instantly distorted and intertwined, the blood mist flew all over the sky, and the wails flowed everywhere, and suddenly, the dense arrow rain was like locusts crossing the border, and the dull shouting and short roar made the mountains and rivers tremble!

The low howl, the smoke and dust, the firelight and the blood were all mixed together in the thick fog of the night, touching the heartstrings and shaking the heavens and the earth!

After a night of killing, more than half of the losses on both sides, Beigong Pheasant Li personally dressed in battle, holding a long sword, his white clothes hunted in the cold wind, and his body was dyed with a lot of blood, and even his face, which had always been fair-skinned like a fairy, was also stained with a dazzling bright red.

"Hmph, I thought that the dignified Nanming Country's concubine master planned to be a shrinking turtle all the time."

Beigong Yu looked at the red-eyed Beigong Pheasant, and couldn't help sneering, hiding from him for half a month, thinking that he was afraid that he would only plan to confront him head-on after he really entered the Nanming Kingdom, but he didn't expect this day to come so quickly.

However, Beigong Yu quickly lost his expression, and the long sword pointed at the white figure on horseback led by the opposite side, and said coldly, "Beigong Pheasant Leave, hand over the person, I will have a good fight with you!" ”

When the words fell, thousands of soldiers and horses behind him suddenly stopped at the foot of the mountain and lined up, he didn't let it, Beigong Pheasant had to break through, and now the soldiers and horses in his hands had long been no longer much of a threat to him.

But obviously, the moment he finished speaking, Beigong Yu clearly saw that not only Beigong Pheasant left, but even Anzi on the side also changed his face in an instant, Beigong Yu's sword eyebrows twisted heavily, and an ominous premonition surged up from the bottom of his heart.

"Master, Beigong Yu may be a thief with a weak heart......"

Anzi also said very uneasily, but as soon as the words came out, he couldn't help but stop talking, what kind of person is Beigong Yu? He is a thief, and he is never weak-hearted, not to mention, he followed them when he knew that there might be a conspiracy trap ahead, and the purpose was obvious, if Xia Xiaoxiao really returned to Beigong Yu, why did he have to hide?

Beigong Pheasant's breath sank, "She's not here with me now." ”

"Beigong Pheasant Li, the big man dares to act, you tell me now that she is not there? Isn't it too unstylish? ”

Beigong Yu naturally didn't believe it, Ji Lingnan had only been back for a few days now, unless Xia Xiaoxiao really escaped again, after all, she had escaped many times openly and secretly in his hands, but Beigong Pheasant was obviously not so easy for her to escape.

But in the next moment, Beigong Yu noticed Beigong Pheasant's words, now.

"Where is she now?"

Beigong Yu's hand holding the long sword tightened, and his face gradually tightened, staring at every expression on Beigong Pheasant's face, however, under that face that was exactly the same as him, the expression at this time couldn't see anywhere.

From a distance, seeing that Beigong Pheasant Li was just about to speak, a soldier who came down from the mountain peak on the side hurriedly handed a letter to Beigong Pheasant, and Beigong Pheasant Li had read it at a very fast speed, and then his face became even more gloomy.

"Chu Muruo ......" Beigong Pheasant closed the letterhead, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a cold arc.

Then without any scruples, looking at Beigong Yu's eyes, they were also cold to the extreme, and his thin lips opened lightly, "Kill me!" ”

Beigong Yu also sneered, and with a wave of his hand, thousands of monstrous roars sounded behind him, and the soldiers and horses of the two sides fought together again, and the wails and sword shadows that had just dissipated bloomed in the wind again, and the heavy smell of blood made people almost suffocate.

The Nanming army took the lead in dispatching, and everyone shouted a killing word in their mouths, the sound of the trumpets shook the mountain peaks, the cavalry on both wings roared to meet the attack, and the thick smoke rising from the fierce war fire rolled and filled the entire mountain, and the morning was not clear, and no one could stop the pace of stepping on the corpse!

It's far away, but no matter how far away it is, it seems that you can still hear the moving shouts of battle in the distance.

It was a familiar posture again, her hands were tied behind her back, and the weight of her whole body was gathered on the back of the horse, and the horse that kept running in the mountains was really bumpy and uncomfortable, but she was stuffed with a rag in her mouth, and she could only watch Chu Muruo running in front of him riding on horseback.

Xia Xiaoxiao felt that maybe she was at the mercy of others in her life, wherever she went, there were people who liked to kidnap her, it was clear that she wanted money or not, she had no face, and she didn't have a figure, not to mention that all of them who kidnapped her looked better than her and were richer than her.

The person who grabbed Xia Xiaoxiao drove his horse and looked at the mountain peak behind him where the smoke filled the sky, and then turned back to Chu Muruo who ran to the front and said, "Princess, it should be Yue Huajun's people in the rear who stopped the Nanming army." ”

Chu Muruo snorted coldly, a red dress fluttered in the wind, mixed with her long inky hair, and she didn't turn her head back, "It's rare, Beigong Yu also did a good thing for me." ”

Xia Xiaoxiao listened to this conversation, and suddenly wanted to cry without tears, Beigong Yu, Beigong Yu, you didn't fight earlier, she is not in the army of the Nanming Army now, she was still counting on Beigong Pheasant to find out that she was missing and came to save her, but now it's good, the two of them are fighting, so won't she fall into Chu Muruo's hands in vain?

She still remembers that this guy almost beat her to death before!

Isn't this time going to take her somewhere to be buried alive?

Xia Xiaoxiao thought about it, a chill spread in his heart, and he shivered fiercely, and then, with a lot of effort, his knees kicked heavily on the horse's belly!

"Appeal ——!"

The horse immediately went crazy when he was in pain, and kicked forward violently with both kicks, and the person who grabbed Xia Xiaoxiao panicked, and hurriedly grabbed the reins to stabilize his body, Xia Xiaoxiao took advantage of the gap and fell off the horse's back at once!

I didn't even have time to eat the pain, so I got up from the ground and ran towards the circuit after choosing the direction!

Chu Muruo heard the movement and looked back, and at a glance saw the figure running with them limping on his back, his eyebrows sank, he reined in his horse, drew a long sword from the horse's back at a very fast speed, stepped on the horse's back with his toes, and his body jumped and fell steadily in front of Xia Xiaoxiao, blocking her way!

"Where else do you want to run?"

A cold light long sword hit Xia Xiaoxiao's neck in the slightest, marking a bloody mark.

The rag in her mouth had fallen off the moment she fell off the horse, and she swallowed as she looked at the long sword.
