It was another rare good winter day, and the sun shone on the ice-covered earth and rivers, stinging people so much that they couldn't even open their eyes.

The cold wind whistled across the river and swept across everyone's faces, Xia Qian couldn't help but shiver, and stretched out her hand to wrap the cloak on her body tightly.

Suddenly, the people behind him began to move slightly, and in the midst of a discussion, Xia Qian saw several figures on the city wall, Zhu Yu, Mr. Li, Hou Xun and others were all standing there.

Hou Xun's voice spread in the air, and the discussion stopped abruptly.

Under the guidance of him and Mr. Li, a frightened Zhu Yu delivered a mobilization speech.

Although it was read according to the manuscript written by others, in Zhu Yu's trembling voice, he heard some words and phrases that could make the soldiers enthusiastic, which encouraged the originally scattered military spirit.

The monkey looked at a few figures on the city wall and asked Xia Qian: "Sister-in-law, if General Huo is here, it will never be like this at this moment, and I don't know when the Huo family army will be able to rush back?" ”

"I don't know, the soldiers who rushed to support were infected with the plague, and the rest are still wrestling with the Mobei Army, I'm afraid they can't be trusted!"

The monkey moved half a step towards Xia Qian, lowered his voice and asked, "I heard that my sister-in-law asked Shi Rong to send a prescription to Huaxi City, if they can really cure the plague, it must not be long before they can come back!" ”

Xia Qian was stunned, the last time she used the computer to find a prescription for the treatment of hysteria for Lin's family, she just left some medical classics on the desktop, presumably Shi Rong found it and sent it to Huo Jiajun.

It's just that from Qinglong City to Huaxi City in the north, plus the time to treat the plague, where can it be used?

"As soon as the ice surface stabilized, Nankang was defeated and couldn't wait to cross the river. They are in their hands, and Qinglong City is afraid that it will be hopeless! An old man beside him listened to the conversation between the monkey and Xia Qian, and said with tears streaming down his face.

The monkey looked at him angrily and said, "The emperor is still on the city wall to boost morale, why are you crying here?" Those of us who went into battle to defend against the enemy are still in high spirits, what kind of turtle are you pretending to be here! ”

The monkey's words resonated, choked the old man for a long time, wiped away his tears and said, "That's good, that's good, our family's wives and children are all counting on you." ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but have a sour nose, and they all saluted the pro-army on the riverbank, getting rid of them to defend against the fierce enemy and protect their homeland.

If Zhu Yu's chicken blood is just the beginning, then the expectations and pleas of these ordinary people will become the chicken soup that makes the soldiers' blood tumble.

Hou Xun didn't dare to command blindly anymore, and handed over the command of 100,000 pro-troops to the monkey.

Because of the weather, the ice and snow showed signs of melting, and the Nankang rout on the other side was observed for a long time, although the morale was high, but after all, there was no hurry to kill from the ice.

Almost the entire people of Qinglong City stood on the bank of the river and accompanied the pro-army for a day.

In the evening, everyone came up sleepy and went home to rest.

"Sister, will you go back and rest? It's useless to stay here, now the morale of the army is up, the morale is high, the ice on the river is much thinner, and their iron cavalry does not dare to rush over! Shi Rong stepped forward and persuaded Xia Qian.

Xia Qian thought about it and felt that this was the case.

The next morning, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Yu Nuan sitting in front of the bed with a sad face.

"Nankang is defeated?" She asked, alarmed.

&n

bsp; Yu Nuan shook her head lightly, and then comforted her softly: "Last night, they tried to cross the river three times, but they had to retreat because of the thin ice in the Xuyu River. If the sun can't shine brightly in the past two days, there must be a bloody battle on the river! ”

"Sanjiu is cold, and now before entering Sanjiu, it is already ice and snow, if it cools down again, no one can protect Qinglong City."

She said, sitting up and adding a piece of clothing.

Yu Nuan looked at her with a distressed face, and silently dressed up Xia Qian.

"Yu Nuan, there is Simon's support behind these routs, you say Yi Guo...... Is that really the end of it? ”

Yu Nuan's face was stunned, he thought about it and sighed lightly and said: "The real Nankang rout is at most thirty or forty thousand people, but now the condensed exiled people have reached fifty thousand, and the number of these seventy or eighty thousand on the surface is actually increasing. ”

"It's 70,000, and it's still increasing, where did those new people come from? Are all Simon soldiers? Xia Qian asked in surprise.

"It should be all Simon's elite, after Que Ming went back, the captured Nankang Kingdom was taken over by his imperial brother Yue Chu. This person is both civil and military, full of resourcefulness, presumably in order to attack the Yi State, deliberately let go of tens of thousands of Nankang soldiers, so that their Simon's army can sneak into the Yi State. ”

"What a sinister trick, Que Ming ....... him" Thinking of Que Ming, she couldn't help but worry again.

Yu Nuan's mouth opened, as if she wanted to say something, but her eyes paused for a moment and swallowed back the words on the tip of her tongue.

On the night of the third day, hearing the commotion outside, Xia Qian put on her clothes and just got out of bed, Yu Nuan walked in.

The big war was imminent, everyone's spirits were tense to the extreme, looking at the look on Yu Nuan's face, Xia Qian was shocked, and immediately felt that something was wrong.

"What's the matter, the Nankang rout army has attacked?" She asked, surprised.

Yu Nuan drank saliva and moistened her throat, and replied: "The second army has handed over, and the Xuyu River has become a battlefield. Nankang didn't dare to let the cavalry come, both sides were in touch with each other, but fortunately, the soldiers of the Yi State were good at ice combat, and the other party could not take advantage of it for the time being. ”

"Yes, don't you say that I forgot about this, Nankang has a warm climate, there is little ice and snow, and the people of Yi like to skate, at this point, the pro-army has an advantage!"

Suddenly, two palace maids ran in and hurriedly shouted, "Crown princess, it's not good, it's not good!" ”

Xia Qian and Yu Nuan's conversation was interrupted by these two, and before they could ask questions, the two of them had already confessed one by one: "Concubine Bin in the palace, and the emperor is going to escape, what should we do?" ”

"Run? There is a rout in the south, Simon in the west, and Mobei in the north, even if he escapes to the east wing, these three kingdoms will hand over the emperor, and he will not be able to escape! Yu Nuan sneered.

"Yes, right now, Lord He Jinliang He is still persuading in the Ziyun Palace, saying that as soon as the emperor leaves, the army's heart will be greatly disturbed, please Mr. Li hurry over and take a look, but," the palace maid took a breath and lowered her voice, "Mr. Li is still busy with the old case of the Heavenly King's Mansion." ”

Xia Qian's face was stunned, and she couldn't help but panic a little.

Although she felt a little familiar with this Mr. Li, she had never understood it, if he was really Simon or Nankang's meticulous work, why did he care so much about the rebellion of the King of Heaven?

But if not, now that Nankang and Simon are attacking the city, he is not in a hurry at all?

"I can't take care of so much, Zhu Yu can't go, otherwise the army will be in chaos. When the Nankang rout army invades, none of us will survive! Xia Qian said, and hurriedly rushed towards the Zichen Palace.
