Chapter 66: Obsession
Sand City
The man stood on top of the high city, his eyes were far-reaching, looking into the distance, waiting for a figure returning from his horse.
Seeing that the sun had set in the west, and he hadn't seen her come back, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, pacing back and forth on the castle tower.
Ling'er, you must come back safely!
"Shizi, is it really feasible for you to entrust all the important military aircraft to a woman?" Shikyu pondered under the city for a long time, but still expressed his concerns.
"Though she was a woman, she was worthy of ten sentinels. She won't let us down. ”
Murong Ling was still looking intently at the outside of the city, but when he talked about Song Ling, there was a hint of appreciation in his indifferent eyes.
Shikyu couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, he had only heard that women had caused trouble to the country, and he had never heard of women becoming battlefields.
"Shizi, the west side of Weide City in Murong Cang's hands is connected to Longshan, and it is dangerous to defend, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If we want to send troops, we should take them straight from the east, with the cavalry attacking first and the infantry storming. ”
"From what I know about Wilder City, three o'clock every day is the time when the defenders change the guard, and it is also the time when their defense is the most lax."
What Shi Gui said was a straightforward description of the situation, and every sentence was reasonable.
Murong Ling couldn't help but look at Shi Gui, but there was a bit of fierceness in his eyes.
"Since you are clearly in shape, why do you want to let Song Ling go out of the city to investigate?"
When Shi Gui saw that Murong Ling was obviously angry, he immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty, "The last general just remembers the approximate, still the impression of two or three years ago." ”
"It is a great deal for the prince to attack Weide City, and he must send sentries to explore the camp first, so he can plan everything!"
"Do you really think so?" Murong Ling was still frowning, and he was skeptical of Shigui's words.
Shi Gui was shocked, when he surrendered to Murong Ling in Shacheng, Murong Ling didn't doubt him so much, but now for a woman, he actually suspected him so far!
"The last general will be loyal, and I hope that the son of the world will be clear!" Bow to the head, from the bottom of your heart.
Murong Ling looked at him for a moment, then bent down and helped him up personally, "Okay, get up." ”
But there was still a trace of thought in his heart, maybe he had no choice but to send Song Ling to Weide City, which was planned by Shi Gui, as for why he did this, he hadn't figured it out yet.
But, it is also very likely that he is too careful.
Shi Gui looked at Murong Ling's eyes, and felt a little weak in his heart, and immediately retreated, "Then I will retreat first." ”
"Go ahead." Murong Ling waved his hand.
When Shibu-kei walked down the castle tower, his steps were a little heavy.
He heard the news that Murong Liang, the defender of Longcheng, the king of Bohai, was sick, this was a good fighter, and he wanted to persuade Murong Ling to attack Weide City at the time of today, and take Longcheng directly tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. But looking at Murong Ling's situation now, if Song Ling's woman hadn't come back, he wouldn't have ordered the siege of the city.
He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
Murong Ling, I originally respected you as a hero, but you are so childlike, how can you become a hegemon?!
If Song Ling's woman can't come back, everything will be much easier!
****
The west wind was slanting, and Murong Ling waited anxiously for a while before he saw the figure of the girl beating the horse and returning.
"Open the gates!"
There was some indescribable excitement in his heart, even he felt strange, he was afraid that she would never return.
It turned out that she was already so important in his heart!
Song Ling turned over and dismounted, there was still a trace of deep sorrow in her eyes, so heavy that she was almost out of breath.
"The Qin State is eyeing the tiger, and Dayan is worried about internal and external troubles, at this time, he is taking advantage of the fire to rob and rob the city of Yan Kingdom, do you think he is the hero of Dayan!"
"Is he worthy?"
Murong Chong's questions were still precipitating in her heart, maybe he was not wrong, but she was carried away for love and made the wrong choice.
When she raised her eyes, Murong Ling had already greeted her in person, only a few steps away from her, but she felt that there was an invisible gap between the two, and she, hesitating, couldn't take a step.
Seeing this, Murong Ling's eyebrows tightened, and he walked a few steps quickly to her side.
"What's wrong?" He asked softly, his tone full of care.
She looked at him, suddenly not knowing what to say, too many emotions pressed on her heart, so that she couldn't find an exit at all, and couldn't find their way forward.
She only felt a chill attacking her body, from head to toe, shaking her belief in accompanying him indomitable.
She threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly, hoping that his warmth would dissipate the cold on her body and the struggle in her heart.
"It's good to be back." He didn't know why, but he didn't ask more, just hugged her tightly and gently brushed her hair.
"Your hands are cold." He frowned, taking her hand in his own, careful to warm it.
"Can you not attack Ved City?" She hesitated and hesitated, but she still asked.
When Murong Ling heard this, her body stiffened, and her hand immediately drooped.
"What the hell is wrong with you today? Is something happening in the city? ”
Murong Ling looked at her, and he subconsciously felt that she should have met someone today before she suddenly said such a thing.
"I ...... I heard that the Yan army was defeated again in Xingyang. ”
"Dayan is our family after all, do we really want to attack our home country when the country is in crisis?"
She tugged at his sleeve and looked at him, hoping that he would hesitate for a moment.
It's just that he clearly let her down.
His dark light brown eyes suddenly became indifferent, cold as ice, and he only heard him say in a cold voice, "You know, we have no way out. ”
"The moment you capture Shacheng, you should know that we have chosen the opposite path of Yan Kingdom."
"Go forward or die, there's never a compromise."
"But, but that's our home, that's our Xianbei kindred, don't you have the slightest hesitation?" She was choked up.
"When you hesitate, someone else's spear will go down first."
"I've never regretted it."
Song Ling's whole body froze, and the coldness in his eyes had turned into a bloody blade, which could kill ruthlessly or break her heart.
"You're determined to attack the city, aren't you?"
"Yes." He replied without thinking.
"Even if the imperial court surrenders at this time, you are not willing to compromise half a point?"
"What kind of credibility does such a court have?" He snorted disdainfully, his eyes full of murderous intent.
She knew completely at this time that she couldn't persuade him.
Perhaps, as Murong Chong said, when he left Dayan, it was true that he was resolute; When he had no choice but to return to his homeland, he was hypocritical.
He never thought of really working for Dayan, let alone caring about Dayan's survival.
"Okay, I got it."
She slowly let go of her hand, let go of his sleeve, and walked forward in despair.
"The western barrier of the city of Weide is dangerous and difficult to take down, and it can be taken from the east; When the guard is changed, you can take advantage of the relaxation; Although there were heavy troops, the city gate was not high, and it was not fortified, so it was not a fortified city. ”
Even though she was reluctant to do so in her heart, she still told the truth what she had explored today. She didn't want him to become a big deal, but she was afraid that he would be in danger due to insufficient intelligence.
"Ling'er." There was distress in his eyes, but he didn't catch up.
She didn't stop either, maybe he and she were both paranoid, each keeping their own beliefs and going their own way.
