Chapter 523: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole

Now that I have been fighting for so many days, I have lost a lot of people, and you have asked me to summon the last team of men and horses who are ambushed near the capital, if I can't capture the capital, I will have no more soldiers in my hands. ”

Xiao Heng looked at the current situation, and couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart, Yueji still had the support of the entire central country, but he had nothing, he could only rely on himself, the war in the capital may not be so important to Yueji, but for Xiao Heng, it was the last reliance on whether he could ascend to the throne.

"With our central country here, what are you afraid of? Now that you have reached an alliance with our central country, then ours will be yours in the future, as long as you let your subordinates attack the city with all their might, and leave the rest to us. ”

Yueji is also dressed in a military uniform, standing among these men, the women do not let their eyebrows be shaved, and their every move is extremely fierce, which makes people dare not make a mistake.

In fact, Yueji's words are only half said, the central country is Xiao Heng's, but Xiao Heng's is also the central country's, in the final analysis, the central country wants to follow Xiao Heng to get Xiao Guo, as for who will be the emperor in the end, these people don't care at all.

"Now Xiao Mohan has been guarding this Dingyuan City, if this city can't be captured, we can only linger at the gate of Xiao Guo, we can't enter at all, and in the end it is still us who loses."

Xiao Heng changed his words and mentioned this, in fact, he didn't know about Yueji and Yangguo's intentions, but at this time, he couldn't debunk it.

"Xiao Mohan is indeed a big trouble, the soldiers and horses he led are brave and good at fighting, we have attacked the city no less than dozens of times, but he has blocked it back, but he has never attacked, presumably he has limited chips in his hand, he does not dare to act rashly, he can only defend this Dingyuan City."

Yueji was still covered with her face, her eyes were full of murderous aura, as long as there was a fight, Xiao Mohan would give Yang Guo a headache, if there was no Xiao Mohan, this Xiao Guo Xing would have been in their pocket a long time ago.

"If we want to attack the city, we must find a way, otherwise we will not be able to afford it if it continues to be consumed like this."

Xiao Heng thought in his heart, after a few days of fighting, their soldiers were also very tired, although they had been grinding hard with Xiao Mohan, their situation was not much better.

"You're right, there's no time to rub in with them, you have to open the gate of Dingyuan City, I'll figure out a way, you can appease the soldiers under you."

Yueji'er lowered her eyes, her long and thick eyelashes blocked the emotions under her eyes, and a sneer seemed to appear on her face, her eyes rolled from side to side, and she didn't have any good intentions at first glance.

That night, the long street of Dingyuan City was empty, there was no one outside, and the surroundings were very quiet, only some wind sounds mixed with the rustling of leaves, the whole city seemed to be empty, there was no popularity, and everywhere was desolate.

Qian Qianqian sat in the room, not sleepy, somehow, she always felt that something was going to happen tonight, but she really couldn't say what it was.

"Miss Qian, the hour is not early, the slave maid will wait for you to go to bed and rest."

Xue Yi walked in, carrying a lantern in her hand, and saw that Qian Qianqian was still reading the military book, so she reminded her in a low voice.

"I can't sleep, I want to watch it for a while, you go and rest, I'll be sleepy later, I'll go to sleep, you don't have to wait here."

Qian Qianqian slowly raised her eyes, just explained lightly, Xue Yi looked at the sky outside, as if she was reluctant, but the words came to her mouth and did not speak, so she could only respond, nodded, and withdrew.

Late at night, Qian Qianqian yawned, finally closed the military book in her hand, and saw that the wooden window on the side was still open, so she went straight over and raised her hand to close the window.

At this moment, the sound of fighting came into her ears, at first she thought she had heard it wrong, and she didn't care much, until the sound became stronger and stronger, and she was finally sure that she had not heard it wrong, and it seemed that there was a fight outside.

Qian Qianqian suddenly sobered up, now there are not many troops in Dingyuan City, and that General Xue has never shown up, how many talents he has, Qian Qianqian doesn't know at all, so if the enemy army comes in, what should I do?

Thinking of this, she immediately rushed out, but she didn't expect that before she had taken a few steps, Xue Yi greeted her.

"Miss Qian." Xue Yi came over to support her, as if she was not surprised by this situation, she was not flustered at all, and she was neatly dressed, she should have been prepared a long time ago.

"Is there a war out there?"

Qian Qianqian couldn't wait to ask, her brows twisted into a dead knot, and the corners of her forehead were covered with blue tendons.

"Yes, it was arranged by General Xiao and General Xue, wanting to lure the snake out of the hole and catch the turtle in the urn, now many soldiers and horses of the Central State have entered the city, General Xiao has already arranged it, whether this battle can go further, it depends on tonight."

Xue Yi explained 1510, she knew everything, but she didn't say anything, this matter is not trivial, the less people know about it, the better, Xiao Mohan has been confronting Yueji and Xiao Heng for so many days, just waiting for this time.

"General Xiao arranged it? Are you sure? ”

Qian Qianqian couldn't believe it, afraid that Xue Yi deliberately lied to appease her, so she concealed the situation outside, so she asked again and again.

"Of course, how dare the slave and maid talk nonsense about such a big thing? General Xiao has always wanted to force back Yueji and Xiao Heng's soldiers and horses, but they have been holding on, and General Xiao has never been able to find a chance, and now that their soldiers and horses have been scattered, the general has a chance. ”

Xue Yi nodded heavily, kept staring at Qian Qianqian's eyes, and said very firmly.

In this way, Qian Qianqian was relieved, she didn't know much about the war, so Xiao Mohan didn't let her know about it, she understood, as long as it was beneficial to Xiao Mohan, she had no objections.

"It's cold outside, the slave will help you in, it is estimated that there will be results outside soon."

Xue Yi saw that Qian Qianqian had calmed down, so she wanted to send Qian Qianqian into the house, but she avoided her quietly.

"I'm going to go out and have a look."

Qian Qianqian is also a stubborn person, at this time, how can she sleep peacefully on the pillow?

"Now that there is chaos outside, General Xue is leading people to resist the enemy with all his might, if you go out, there will be a lot of danger, so you better stay in the mansion."

Xue Yi was very embarrassed, Xiao Mohan specially instructed her to let her protect Qian Qianqian's safety, so she didn't dare to relax for a moment, knowing that Qian Qianqian would definitely hear the sound of the fight, so she didn't dare to go back to the room to rest, she had been waiting outside, as soon as Qian Qianqian came out, she immediately stepped forward to stop her.

"Because of this, I want to go out even more, there are not many troops in this Dingyuan City, General Xiao's soldiers and horses have also fought for many days, people are sleepy and horses are lacking, if there are too many enemy troops, they can't resist it, isn't it a big deal? Even if I want to run, I'm afraid it's too late. ”

Qian Qianqian thought about it in her heart, she said categorically, her face was pale, but her eyes were still tenacious, she and Xiao Mohan had the same temperament, as long as they decided something, no one could change it, so Xue Yi couldn't persuade her at all, and there was no way.

"Okay, the slave will escort you out, but you must promise the slave and maid to go out and take a few looks and come back, and don't do anything to attract the attention of those enemy soldiers."

Xue Yi cautiously instructed, like a thief, for fear that Qian Qianqian's "baby" would be crushed by the enemy, and her face was full of vigilance.

"Don't worry, I know how to be measured, and I won't get myself in trouble."

Qian Qianqian lowered her voice, and as soon as the voice fell, she turned around and entered the house, changed into a neat short shirt, and then put on an ink-colored cloak and a green silk crown, like a young man, but this body is thinner.

Xue Yi took a few dead soldiers to escort Qian Qianqian out of the house, and the people outside had already received a secret order, and they hid early in the morning, closed the door, and kept silent in the house, so all the people who fought outside were soldiers from the Yang State and the Xiao State, and no people were injured by mistake.

Those people from the central country have ruthless moves, and they seem to be evenly matched with Xiao Guo, and they fight to the death, and no one can spare anyone.

Among those soldiers, a man on a horse is particularly eye-catching, burly, dressed in iron armor, waving a spear in his hand, opening a bow left and right, and a vermilion cloak behind his back.

"That's General Xue."

Xue Yi kept looking at the man, and said very surely, such an extraordinary person, his official position in the army must not be low.

"Not bad." Xue Yi protected her, lowered her voice, and nodded in her ear.

"He's really a brave man, it seems that we misunderstood him."

Qian Qianqian looked at General Xue's every move and said lightly, which also happened to verify the conjecture in her heart, this General Xue is not incompetent, and what he showed to the outside world is probably deliberately pretended.

"It seems that there is no winner in this battle tonight, and by tomorrow, I may be able to slowly show the highs and lows."

Xue Yi's expression was solemn, she could see these things clearly in front of her, there were a lot of soldiers and horses in the central country, and they were all elite generals, just relying on these people led by General Xue, it was estimated that it would not be easy to gain the upper hand.

Qian Qianqian didn't say anything, she kept looking around carefully, her brows furrowed, it was indeed not easy to win this battle, but if this battle was won, it would be difficult for Yang Guo to turn over.

"In that case, let's help them."

A sneer appeared on Qian Qianqian's face, a touch of cunning flashed in her eyes, she seemed to pay attention to it in her heart, and when the words fell, she took Xue Yi to the city wall.

"Miss Qian, what are you going to do?"

Xue Yi has been following Qian Qianqian, and from time to time the enemy army notices them, and she solves them in time.

"Go, quench this medicine on the arrow."

Qian Qianqian took out a porcelain vase and handed it to Xue Yi, which she secretly asked Jiang Sheng for before, originally wanted to keep it for self-defense, but now it seems to come in handy.

"What kind of medicine is this?"

Xue Yi was a little puzzled, Qian Qianqian's whimsy was always a lot, which overwhelmed her, although she knew that Qian Qianqian was not sure that she would not be able to say it, but she still wanted to ask clearly.

"You just do it, I know it in my heart, don't worry."

Qian Qianqian didn't explain, and she didn't have time to explain, now they have to be fast, if an enemy army dies, Xiao Guo will have one more chance of winning, and this war will not drag on for too long.
