Chapter 56: The golden cicada sheds its shell

Although Captain Chen couldn't understand Jiang Liuyu's words very well, after his general understanding, he felt that it was quite reasonable.

"What the princess said is reasonable, it's really not good to make everyone worry too much." Captain Chen thought for a moment, "Your Highness, what are you going to do next?" ”

"Hold your ground and wait for news." Su Jingye and Jiang Liuyu glanced at each other, at least solving the problem on their side.

A few good people were sent to find out the news, and the army was stationed in the same place to rest. The sun hung high in the sky, and the weather was hot, and the soldiers found a stream and used this stream to make rice and wash their faces.

After a long time, the spies have not returned, but they have ushered in a team of uninvited guests.

"Your Highness, I found someone quietly coming here from the southwest." A small soldier climbed down from the top of the tall tree and ran in front of Su Jingye.

Su Jingye sat on the stone and washed his hands, and sneered: "The same trick won't work the second time." Go and tell Vice General Li to lead a team of men and horses to outflank them from the side and wipe out this group of people. ”

Jiang Liuyu pulled his trouser legs and fished for fish from behind the stone from afar, and it took a long time to catch only a small fish the size of a palm. Such a small fish can't be eaten, so Jiang Liuyu put the fish away, and when he came back, he saw Su Jingye, fiddling with the fire with a smile on his face.

"What are you so happy about?" Jiang Liuyu, you dry the water on your sleeves and trouser legs, sit by the fire and dry your clothes. When the sun rises, the water in this forest is still extremely cool.

"Thank you for reminding us to set up a dark sentry, otherwise we will be attacked again." Su Jingye smiled lightly and held her hand, feeling that her hand was extremely cold.

"It's also on the safe side." That's how it is played on TV. Jiang Liuyu held his hand back, "Then how did you deal with it?" How many people came? ”

"There aren't many people coming, I heard that there are only one or two thousand." Su Jingye sneered, and Jiang Liuyu also sneered, "I can't help but look down on us too much, but I am proud to be like this after winning a sneak attack." ”

"I have sent people to copy the bread from behind, so that they too may taste the taste of being attacked."

Not long after, Adjutant General Li came back to report, "Your Highness, the enemy army has been completely destroyed. ”

While Su Jingye let out a big sigh of evil, he was also a little pity: "It's a pity that I didn't leave one or two to inquire clearly, where is the King of Nanyang now." ”

"It should still be on this mountain, or directly break into the palace, these are the two possibilities." Jiang Liuyu thought for a moment.

"The Imperial Palace." Su Jingye muttered these two words, "The top priority now is to rescue Your Majesty, but the King of Nanyang is my worries." ”

"A team of men and horses must be sent out to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, and the golden cicada will come out of its shell." Su Jingye raised his head. "I plan to divide five thousand people to find the power of the King of Nanyang here, and the rest of them will enter the palace with me."

Jiang Liuyu nodded, she still knew these tactics of war. "It's a good idea, why don't you let me take those five thousand people to find it."

"Nope." Su Jingye refused, "Staying here is more auspicious, I am also discussing with you, you can't go." ”

"Princess, it's okay to let the last general bring people." Vice General Li was afraid that they would quarrel, and he also knew how Jiang Liuyu could go to the battlefield to lead the troops as a girl.

Jiang Liuyu sighed and slowly explained to them, "Jingye." Don't be nervous, you listen to me first. If there is, I will lead a team of people, and my girls will be careful, and they may know more about some subtle things than you men. ”

"The second is that the king of Nanyang has seen me, he knows that I am your wife, and if I am here, he will want to take me as a hostage, so that I can make a request and let him leave all the lives of the five thousand soldiers."

A good general values the lives of his soldiers. Su Jingye pondered for a while, and seemed to feel that this possibility was very high, so it was worth reluctantly, "Okay, then you must be careful." ”

Su Jingye held her hand tightly, "I will send Captain Chen and Vice General Li to assist you and protect your safety." ”

Jiang Liuyu didn't pretend to him, "Okay, with the two of them by my side, you can rest assured." ”

After discussing it, he picked out five thousand elite soldiers from the barracks, and Jiang Liuyu led the team to continue walking, while the rest of the people secretly descended the mountain from another path.

Jiang Liuyu's purpose was to attract the attention of the enemy army, so he did not hide the traces of his team at all. Judging that Su Jingye and they should all go down the mountain, Jiang Liuyu asked people to slow down.

After walking for about a few miles, there was a sudden silence all around. Jiang Liuyu beckoned, asked the army to stop, and dismounted himself, and walked to the tree on the side of the road to listen carefully. Vice General Li and Captain Chen didn't know what he was going to do, so they also got off the horse and came to see.

"Princess, but what have you discovered?"

"Shhh

"Nothing." Vice General Li was puzzled, but she turned her head and said, "It's strange, it's strange that there is no sound anymore." ”

"At this time, the weather is hot, and the insects and birds are hiding in the forest to escape the heat, how can there be no bird calls at all, unless someone is ambushing!" After Jiang Liuyu finished speaking, many people rushed out on both sides of the road.

Vice General Li and Captain Chen pulled out the swords at their waists and shouted, "Protect the princess!" ”

As soon as these words came out, someone really noticed Jiang Liuyu. During the enemy fighting, they also hoped that she would run into the forest because she was afraid, so that she could be captured and take the opportunity to ask for credit.

But Jiang Liuyu is also a person who has experienced strong winds and waves after all, and this change can't scare her. Coupled with the fact that there were two people beside him, Adjutant General Li and Captain Chen, Jiang Liuyu carefully avoided the fight while observing whether anyone was reporting the news.

The enemy army sent less than 2,000 people this time, plus Jiang Liuyu had already prepared here, the enemy army did not please at all, but was completely wiped out.

While cleaning up the battlefield, Jiang Liuyu found that a person who had faked his death got up again and tried to run into the forest.

"Catch him." Jiang Liuyu knew that he wanted to go back to report the news, so he hurriedly shouted. The man had already run some distance, and Vice Admiral Li was too lazy to send someone to chase him, so he took out a longbow and shot the man to death with accurate arrows.

Jiang Liuyu breathed a sigh of relief and said to the people around him: "Let's change your clothes and change into these people's clothes, so you can save some trouble." ”

"Princess, this group of people obviously came to inquire about the news, they didn't go back, and the king of Nanyang probably won't act rashly again, how can we find them?"

Captain Chen looked up and looked into the distance, where there were only long stretches of trees and mountain roads. "This bridge mountain is a good place to fight, but finding someone is really as difficult as looking for a needle in a haystack."

Jiang Liuyu thought for a moment, "Everyone leave the main road, follow me into the woods, and find the water flow first." ”

"Princess, we're not tired." Captain Chen thought that she had misinterpreted what she meant, but Jiang Liuyu waved his hand, "This camp must need water for daily use and cooking, and the King of Nanyang has lived here for a long time, so it is definitely impossible for them to send people all the way to get water." ”

"And most of the water sources on this mountain are connected, as long as you follow the stream and spring water, you can find it quickly." Jiang Liuyu led the people to the creek, which was the same as the stream where the army had just stopped.

After several miles away, the original stream can still be found, and everyone also trusts Jiang Liuyu a lot. The soldiers were changing their clothes, and Jiang Liuyu took advantage of this gap to observe the direction of the broken grass and trees in the forest, and deduced the location of the station.

"To the northeast, try a few more miles along the stream." Jiang Liuyu came back with a broken reed, and Captain Chen nodded, "Listen to the princess." ”

Not long after, Jiang Liuyu found two people catching fish in the creek from a distance, and she hurriedly asked the army to stop, and everyone was crouching in the grass.

Judging by the situation, these two people are not ordinary people, and there are two sets of military uniforms on the stones on the shore. Jiang Liuyu called Captain Chen over and ordered softly: "Let the brothers who have just changed into the enemy's clothes go and call the door, and let them take us to the camp." ”

Captain Chen nodded in response, and casually beckoned two people to go up. The two men seemed to be very eloquent, and soon persuaded the enemy to take them back to their camp.

The two of them beckoned their brothers who had changed their clothes to come over, and Jiang Liuyu led people in a half-squatting position, slowly following behind the two thousand people.

After walking for a while, they arrived at the place. The garrison of the king of Nanyang was actually dug out of the ground and built by hiding behind big stones, and such a concealment may not be found in a few days.

The lover who caught the fish stood in front of the camp with his clothes and shouted: "Open the door, they are back." ”

Jiang Liuyu hid behind the tree from a distance, looking at the camp like this, and couldn't help but want to laugh: although this place is hidden, if the small stream is bigger, or the rain is bigger, the camp will be directly flooded.

When the gate of the camp was opened, Vice General Li immediately stood up, raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, follow me to rush in and arrest the thief." ”

The action was so swift that even Captain Chen did not react. The enemy army could not resist and was taken down in an instant, but the king of Nanyang was still not among them.

The number of people in the barracks was counted, and the remaining people were less than a thousand. Everyone was captured, Jiang Liuyu examined it, and Vice General Li pulled the head of the person who led it: "Say, where are you anti-king?" ”

The man was pulled in pain, and begged for mercy again and again, "The king and the prince went to the capital early in the morning, we are just here to attract people's eyes and ears, and the general spares his life!" ”

Jiang Liuyu frowned when he saw it, and said loudly: "Vice General Li." Vice General Li immediately let go of his hand.

"Leave two thousand men here to keep watch, and the rest will go with me into the city." Vice General Li hurriedly wanted to stop her, "Princess, there are too many people in this city, and the last general is ordered to protect your safety, and you can't let the prince down." ”

"Most of the enemy troops are in the palace, so we don't have to go in, we just need to catch fish outside the net." Jiang Liuyu patted the ash on his hand.
