Hearing the cavalry's orders, the officers and men were dissatisfied, and even their steps were very slack.

The cavalry saw it, and he didn't want to say it, and he himself passed orders back and forth, and it was the same, he was annoyed.

The two countries have already ceased fighting, how can the Blue Moon Kingdom come to fight again, the crown prince is too cautious.

Yes, they all think that way.

But they have forgotten that your crown prince has just killed someone's emperor, and the new emperor has ascended the throne, and he needs to stabilize people's hearts, military morale, and the morale of officers and soldiers who have suffered defeat.

Hitting you now and hitting you hard is the best way to unite people's hearts, and there is no one.

Bai Chenlin thought of this and was so careful, but unfortunately he was the only one who was careful!

The spies who went to explore the way did not come back for half an hour, Bai Chenlin felt a little uneasy in his heart, reined in his horse, and the mighty army behind him also stopped.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?" The military advisor asked puzzled.

"Something unusual." Bai Chenlin said: "When I broke through the border before, I could see the spies of the Blue Moon Country when I arrived here, but when I walked here today, not only did I not see them, but the spies sent in advance did not come back. ”

The military advisor was speechless, how could he remember that there were no spies from the Blue Moon Country here before.

"What does Your Highness mean?" He could only ask.

Bai Chenlin groaned slightly.

"The terrain here is quite open, there will be no large number of ambushes, and if someone comes over, they will find it as soon as possible, just wait here, when the spies will come back and when they will advance." He said, "I should have taken Princess Linglong as a hostage when I withdrew from the palace. ”

The military advisor immediately responded, "There is no need to be afraid now. ”

Bai Chenlin glanced at it coldly, and the military advisor immediately lowered his head and looked embarrassed.

Suddenly, there was a spy running back in front of him, Bai Chenlin looked over intently, and saw that the spy was covered with blood.

"It's broken!" He was shocked, and when his words fell, he saw a large number of soldiers and horses galloping in front of him, and there were all archers behind him, and the arrows rained down, and all the officers and soldiers were shocked, and hurriedly summoned the officers and soldiers with shields behind them.

However, as soon as Bai Chenlin's eyes measured the distance, he knew that there was a deception, and at such a long distance, the arrow could not be shot at all.

"Slow, backwards!" He immediately shouted, "Shields block the sides of the army!" ”

But drink and drink, he reacted, it doesn't mean that the officers and soldiers are too, facing the arrows in front of them, the officers and soldiers naturally ignored his words and ran to the front as usual.

Bai Chenlin was furious, drew his long sword and cut down an officer and soldier who was closest to him and ran the fastest, and said angrily, "Those who don't listen to military orders will be killed!" ”

The officers and soldiers woke up like a dream, and their footsteps were immediately paused, and at this time, the arrows also fell and stuck on the ground, and they were still two or three hundred meters away!

They remembered Bai Chenlin's words, and the young general also woke up, and immediately rode his horse to inform the army behind him to fall out of the shield to protect both sides.

However, it was too late.

Just when the arrow landed, under the land on both sides of the army, the officers and soldiers of the Blue Moon Country came out, all holding crossbows in their hands, pulling bows, and there was fire at the tip of the arrows, and they actually dug holes in the ground early to hide!

I only heard the general who came with a large number of soldiers and horses in front shouting, "Release!" ”

The voice came faintly, and the officers and soldiers followed the order, their fingertips loosened, and the arrows sprayed. Shoot out!

This time, the distance was close enough, and the arrows were not missed, and all the officers and soldiers on both sides of the army who were hit by the arrows were all on fire and rolled on the ground with their armor discarded.

The sudden change plunged them into a brief period of chaos, and this round of offensive caused them to lose a thousand people, and if they had done so as early as when Bai Chenlin ordered the change of position, they would have lost a few hundred people at most now.

Bai Chenlin saw this situation in his eyes, not to mention his anger, but he knew that it was useless to be angry, and the top priority was to let the army regroup.

"The left and right lieutenants each led 1,000 soldiers to encircle and suppress the enemy troops hiding in the caves on both sides of the army, leaving no one behind." He commanded in a deep voice, "The vanguard deputy general will lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to meet the enemy in front, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will retreat thirty miles with the main hall, set up camp, and fight the enemy!" ”

"Yes!" The lieutenant who was named immediately took the order.

Soon, the two sides launched an offensive and fought together.

With Bai Chenlin's orders, the army retreated in an orderly manner.

How could the commander let the army press at the beginning, and there were not many soldiers and horses in this batch of raids in the Blue Moon Country, and Bai Chenlin also gave orders according to the situation, so the two sides resisted and entered a state of balance.

However, because the 2,000 people led by the left and right lieutenant generals were far higher than the officers and soldiers hiding in the cave, they were all killed in half an hour, and the support vanguard went, but the officers and soldiers of the Blue Moon Country who were killed were defeated and retreated, and a small turning point was achieved.

The general of the Blue Moon Country also knew that it was not appropriate to fight again, anyway, this time it was a confusing effect, and while the losses were not too many now, he immediately retreated with his people.

Several lieutenants did not dare to chase deeply, and set up camp here as usual, corresponding to the army thirty miles later, and soon, a communication "setting" was established between the two, among which was Yishui.

The conscience of heaven and earth, Yishui is afraid that the fine work hidden in the Blue Moon Country will pass the news again, so she wants to take root here in the vanguard army, and get the moon first near the water, in case there is really any news, she will stop it, but unfortunately this matter is so easy, it is a death to be discovered, she is worried in her heart, she is really pinching and calculating when Ning Yunxiao's convoy will arrive, and she can take the opportunity to slip over.

……

On the border of Tianyuan Kingdom, in the archery range of the barracks, Li Yiyan was shooting arrows in regular clothes, and the three arrows were fired at once, and they all easily hit the bull's-eye.

The eyes of the soldiers on the side were straight, this is a hundred steps away!

Ji Ming handed the arrow on the side and said: "Your Majesty, the queen mother should arrive in two days, and the military officials want to hold a banquet for the queen mother, what does the emperor think?" The family members who lived in the army for a long time with the officials still counted the time, saying that the queen's mother's delivery was approaching, and even the midwife was invited. ”

Li Yiyan's face softened, "Yes." ”

As soon as his words fell, an official came in from outside the venue, his face in a hurry.

Li Yiyan put down his bow and arrows, and soon the official came over and saluted, "Your Majesty, the internal line has come to report that the soldiers guarding the border of the Blue Moon Country and Bai Chenlin's army are fighting." ”

"Oh?" Li Yiyan listened and re-bowed, "This decision is good, but Emperor Zhenqin is young and courageous, how is the battle going?" ”

"The war situation is not ideal." The official said, narrating the whole story.

"It's just a false shot." Li Yiyan loosened his fingers, and the arrow shot out with a brush, hitting the bull's-eye, "The advantage in numbers does not necessarily mean victory, but the situation on both sides is different, and it is destined that the Blue Moon Country will win this step of the battle." ”

He said, "Bai Chenlin's army is in the belly of the Blue Moon Country, there are enemy troops on either side, and there will be more and more, if you can't find a suitable way to withdraw, and in the end the whole army will be wiped out. ”

Ji Ming thought for a moment and replied, "I think someone is obstructing it." ”

Li Yiyan nodded and instructed the officials, "Pay close attention to the battle situation, and report anything unusual immediately." ”

The official should have been, and withdrew.

Li Yiyan's afterglow kept paying attention to the figure of the official, and when he saw that he was gone, he immediately threw the bow and arrow in his hand and touched his neck, already in a cold sweat.

Ji Ming noticed that his face was different, and immediately asked, "What's wrong with the emperor?" Feeling unwell? ”

Li Yiyan shook his head and ordered, "Quickly prepare the manpower, I will go to the border city of the Blue Moon Country." Finally, he emphasized, "Secretly! ”

Ji Ming was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, and was shocked, "Bai Chenlin will lose this battle, his anger is difficult to suppress, and it will definitely be unfavorable to the queen mother, and the queen mother is estimated to have arrived in the border city, Bai Chenlin turned back, and it was easy to break the border city and capture the queen mother!" ”

"If you guess it, don't prepare it immediately!" Li Yiyan said.

"Yes." Ji Ming didn't dare to delay any longer.

After two days of traveling, when the morning light appeared, the convoy finally arrived at the border city.

The five hundred Praetorian Guards of the Zhen Qin faction retreated to the harbor after passing through the two cities, and Ning Yunxiao took all the guards on the boat, and more than ten ships traveled on the river at one time.

The days on the water are not so easy to treat, and the guards are a little soft for most of the month, fortunately Ning Yunxiao did not get seasick, and did not eat anything and vomit, otherwise the baby would be very dangerous.

But not dangerous does not mean that the situation is good, they contacted Li Yiyan two days ago, and learned that Li Yiyan had arrived at the border, Ning Yunxiao became anxious, and when he got off the boat, his physical condition was okay, but after sleeping in the wild for two days, he began to have a fever and was capricious.

Recently, the weather has become colder, and a small charcoal basin was placed in the carriage, but this charcoal basin not only did not make Ning Yunxiao feel warm, but the quilt was covered with a double layer, which also made Qingzhu sweat coldly.

Now seeing the border city, Qingzhu immediately urged, "Hurry, hurry up, go to all the pharmacies in the city, and don't leave any of the medicinal materials of the previous year." ”

Monsoon was waiting outside, nodding his head.

"I'll go to the official's mansion in the city and ask him to cooperate and get out of the mansion." He said, and rode away, taking with him a dozen of the guards, and the horses neighed twice from the whip.

The officials in the city were still on the bed and did not get up, and the staff over there hurriedly came to wake him up, and before he could lose his temper, he immediately got up from the bed when he heard the word "queen", put on his clothes and hurried out.

"Where are the people?" He asked.

The staff followed, "It's the guards who are telling the news, and the convoy can already be seen on the city walls. ”

"Did the other adults inform me? Hurry up and let them come and see you. ”

"The notice is a notice, but the queen doesn't seem to have the intention of meeting, so she only asked the adults to prepare the room, and the other guards are all in a hurry to go to the pharmacy!"

"What did you say?" The official paused suddenly, "Pharmacy? Isn't it ......."

"It's broken! If that's the case, it's really a must-have! He said, "This official remembers that two days ago, the emperor of the Tianyuan Kingdom arrived at the border, and you immediately spread the news and tell the generals on the border to invite the emperor of the Tianyuan Kingdom from the border." ”

The staff also reacted and should have left in a hurry.

The officials also hurried out of the mansion, and when they stepped out of the gate of the mansion, they saw that a group of guards escorting the carriage had already arrived.

"See the queen mother." The officials immediately came over to salute.

Qingzhu got out of the carriage.

"Your Excellency, is the room ready?" She asked anxiously.

"The welcoming room is prepared all year round." The official immediately said that before he could say this, he saw that the guards had already driven the carriage into the house, and he immediately ran to the front to lead the way.

The tranquility of the mansion was broken at this moment, and the maids and women did not dare to be lazy anymore, and they all waited outside the wings, only to see these guards carrying medicinal herbs, going in and out of the courtyard, not daring to enter the room, for fear of letting the wind go in, only shouting outside, and even the most famous doctors in the city became children who grinded medicines, and lived in the courtyard to decoct medicines, and the doctors who came from behind were the same, and the work of chopping wood was done together.

Eventually, all the medicinal herbs that could be used were brought over, and Monsoon called the guards together and began to command.
