Chapter 149: Walking on the snow has become everyone's last food
The prancing horse raised its whip, stepping on the snow and making the wind, and the tall and handsome figure on the horseback gradually moved away from the sight of the snow.
Xiaoxi took a long windbreaker and draped it over her shoulders, "Miss, it's windy, go back." ”
Xue Mo refused, she asked Adjutant Zhang beside her, "Adjutant Zhang, what do you say are the chances of them winning here?" ”
Adjutant Zhang's heart went up and down, but he had to comfort Xue Wei, "Madam, don't think too much, the young marshal is the god of war." ”
"But he's not really a god." After saying this, Xue Mo closed her mouth, and her thin body shivered in the cold wind, as if it was very cold.
Xiaoxi still insisted, "Miss, let's go." ”
This time, Xue Mo agreed, but she didn't go back to the room, but went to Yu Sihan's room.
Yu Sihan was so stinky and beautiful, there was a big box under the bed, and the last time Xue Wei looked for clothes to make a mound for him, he found the wool vest he had just knitted.
The light gray color is for Helian Yao at first glance. Although only a few lines are knitted, the meticulous craftsmanship can be seen.
Sure enough, Yu Sihan wants more women than himself.
Xue Mo sat on the bed, pinched the soft ball with both hands, and whispered: "Xiaoba, if you have a spirit in the sky, you must bless Helian Yao to return safely." ”
This night, Xue Mo couldn't sleep at all.
She took Yu Sihan's woolen work and asked Xiaoxi to teach her to knit.
After the general church, she said to Xiaoxi: "It's late at night, you go to sleep." ”
"Then you can sleep too."
Xue Wei shook her head, "I can't sleep, Helian Yao went to kill the enemy, how could I sleep?" ”
Xiaoxi naturally couldn't sleep, so she went to the kitchen to boil some red date soup for Xue Wei.
"Xiaoxi, why aren't you sleeping yet?" It's Adjutant Zhang.
Xiaoxi wiped the tears from her face, "I can't sleep, I guess there are few people in the Overseer's Mansion who can sleep tonight." ”
Adjutant Zhang patted her on the head, "Don't think about it. ”
"Adjutant Zhang, let me ask you, is the young marshal going to grasp the big one?"
Adjutant Zhang didn't answer her directly, but pulled her short hair, "Now that you are dressed so well, don't do these rough jobs, there are subordinates." ”
"I'm the next person, everything I have now is given by Miss, I want to repay my kindness."
She clenched her fists very seriously, but she didn't expect this little girl to know the truth of kindness and righteousness.
Adjutant Zhang deliberately teased her, "Then can you follow her for the rest of your life?" Not married? ”
"I ......" almost blurted out the word "I don't", but when she saw the scar on Adjutant Zhang's face, she paused again, and she said to Adjutant Zhang: "Can the scar on your face be healed?" ”
Adjutant Zhang raised his hand and touched it, "What is this, where can there be no scars when you are a soldier?" Why did you get to me when I talked to you? ”
Xiao Xi smiled sweetly, "Do you want Adjutant Zhang to have a bowl of red date longan soup?" ”
"I'm not a woman, what do I want that thing for?"
Xiaoxi had already left while speaking, and looking at her slender back, Adjutant Zhang realized that he was actually put in a position by this little girl.
Taking off his hat and scratching his head, the merry Zhang Dashao felt that he was old.
Xue Mo has lost count of how many times she has been pricked by sweater needles, and such simple things always go wrong in her hands, and she fell a few times in anger.
Xiaoxi helped her dismantle the wrong one, "Miss, your heart is not quiet, don't weave, it hurts your eyes too much." ”
Xue Mo shook her head, "If I don't weave, I'll be more cranky, and I don't know how Helian Yao is doing now?" ”
Xiaoxi looked at Xue Wei's side face and sighed.
At this time, Helian Yao's 500 dead soldiers had already been in close contact with Helian Hongde.
He expected it well, although Bai Changqing and Fu Yanjin's garrisons were not far from him, but no one came to help him, in the final analysis, these people were all ill-intentioned, if it wasn't for profit, they wouldn't be together.
Helian Yao's soldiers and horses were all brave and good at fighting, and he was caught off guard by beating Helian Hongde, his men were killed and wounded countless times, and the camp was in chaos.
Helian Yao ordered to go down, don't fall in love with the war, and burn his granary to be finished.
Li Chen poured gasoline on it, and soon the fire in the tent was lit, and there was wind tonight, and the grain and grass immediately burned. The firelight reflected half the sky.
Helian Hongde was still sleeping with two military prostitutes in his arms in the barracks, and at this time he ran out wearing women's pants, and Helian Yao saw him at a glance in the dark night, shot him, and gave him a hat away.
Helian Hongde immediately peed his pants, although he was very speculative in the camp, he had never fought a few battles, let alone attacked people from under the ground, he covered his head and shouted, "Signal, ask for help, ask for help." ”
The signal flare was fired, Fu Yanjin and Bai Changqing did not dispatch, but the Central Army from Kyoto did.
This rabble won in large numbers, and for a time Helian Yao was cut off from retreating, and he had to lead his men to retreat in the southwest direction.
There is a river in the southwest, and there is still a glimmer of life
Who knew that Fu Yanjin and Bai Changqing also came to pick up the cheap, they inserted it from the two ribs, formed an encirclement three times to cut off Helian Yao's intention to rout to the southwest, and trapped Helian Yao and his less than 400 people under the Mirror Mountain.
There are many strange rocks on the mirror mountain, there is no grass and trees, and it is full of steep stone walls, not to mention that people have to climb up, even if birds fly up, it is not easy.
The sky was about to dawn, and the soldiers who had fought bloodily all night were sleepy and tired, and there was no way back, so they had to rest in place.
After counting the people and horses, more than a hundred people died, and Qi Sanbao was also injured.
"Young marshal, you drink saliva."
Helian Yao glanced at his arm, "Are you alright?" ”
"It's fine."
"Order, let everyone rest in place, eat some dry food, and let us scatter behind the rocks, so that they don't find out."
After surrounding the people, these warlords were not in a hurry to start a war, but buried pots around them and cooked large pieces of beef and mutton.
Bursts of aroma wafted everywhere, and Helian Jun, who was gnawing on dry buns like this, worked very hard.
Bai Changqing and Fu Yanjin even set up a table and made a pot of Biluochun, and they were very happy with Helian Yao's plate of pickled pickles.
Their meaning is very clear, they don't need to move a single soldier to trap Helian Yao.
What could be happier than watching the enemy dying and struggling, Bai Changqing stroked the ring on his hand, and a sneer crawled all over his face.
Helian Yao had been trapped for a day, and the entire Overseer's Mansion was thrown into chaos.
The old overseer was dug up to support political affairs, and he beat his chest and shouted how could he let the commander go to charge, but now Fengping has no one available except for a few deputy generals, and the strength of the Helian army has weakened after it has been dispersed. I made dumplings for several warlords, and now everyone only has a few big words in their hearts, "The sky is going to die and be flat." ”
When Cherry, with Joy, appeared in the council chamber, the Overseer's wife jerked to her feet.
She walked quickly in front of Xue Xue and slapped her hand.
Xue Wei was stunned, and Adjutant Zhang stopped the second slap from the Overseer's wife, "Old lady, what are you doing here?" ”
"It's all her, this woman! I have long heard that Yin Xuejiao's life is very hard, and she killed her mother, father, stepmother, and stepsister, and everyone who is close to her is not good, so she entered the door of our house. Yao and our Helian family will suffer, and I will kill her! ”
There were several officers in the council chamber, all of whom were dissatisfied with the Overseer's wife. The enemy doesn't think about how to resist the enemy at the moment, but instead pushes the mistake on an innocent woman, which is not convinced!
Xue Mo covered her red face, she was not excited and angry, but said calmly: "Madam, you are the mother of the young marshal, I can understand that you are worried about him, but you don't think about how to save him now but take me to be angry, if it is useful, if you can save him, I can die now." But is it useful for me to die? Can Ayao come back? This is just to make the relatives bitter and the enemies happy. ”
The Overseer looked appreciatively. "Yes, Xue Mo is polite, let's stop infighting first, it's important to save Yao."
Madame Helian glared at the Overseer fiercely, and spoke for her, did you hook the vixen too? ”
The Overseer has long since worn out the bloodiness of the big smoke over the years, and he only scolded his wife softly and said, "Look at you, is it okay to say this about the juniors?" ”
Mrs. Helian's eyes widened, "You Helian family are all inhumane things. ”
Although I knew that she was talking about Fu Yajun and Helian Hongde, these words were too ugly to hear, and they couldn't get off the stage compared to a slap on the wrist.
Lady Helian waved her hand, "I get annoyed when I look at her." What can a woman do here, get me out of the Overseer's house. ”
Adjutant Zhang was frightened, "Old lady, are you asking the young marshal to come back and hate you?" ”
"Zhang Yunming, don't forget who you are! An adjutant, instead of going to war, he is here to take care of the boss's family affairs, Zhang Yunming, do you also have a leg with this woman? ”
Adjutant Zhang is going crazy, the enemy is currently Helian Yao trapped in Mirror Mountain, but his mother not only did not save people, but charged her daughter-in-law with indiscriminately, and now even her own subordinate is going to suffer, what's going on?
But no matter what, the Overseer's Mansion is not his turn to say what Zhang Yunming said. It is incomprehensible that this lady would drive Xue Mo out of the Overseer's Mansion at this time.
Looking at the solemn and old-fashioned gate behind him, Xue Wei trembled angrily.
Xiaoxi followed behind her, Pony and another bodyguard each carrying a suitcase, and the four of them stood in the doorway, quite unsure of where to go.
"Miss, where are we going?"
At this time, Xue Mo didn't want to go anywhere, even if she died, she would accompany Helian Yao in her own way to the end, "Just find a place to live first, don't say that we can't leave, even if we can leave, I won't leave." ”
Xiaoxi opened her mouth and swallowed what she wanted to say.
"What are you going to say? Say it boldly. ”
Xiao Xi hesitated, "Actually, if you can see Young Marshal Fu, I guess you can still leave here." ”
Xue Mo almost hit someone, "Are you afraid of death?" I'll let Adjutant Zhang think of sending you away. ”
Xiaoxi was so frightened that she immediately knelt down, "Miss, I am with you in life or death, but I am unwilling to treat you like this. ”
"What is she, I'm for Helian Yao. Forget it, we can't have infighting between us. ”
Xiaoma pulled Xiaoxi up and said in a deep voice: "Miss, we have not returned the house we rented from the Tongfu Inn before, or we will go back to live, and there is no one in the store at this time." ”
Xue Wei nodded, "Okay, let's go." ”
"Madame, please stay."
"It's Adjutant Zhang." Seeing Lao Zhang, Xiaoxi was inexplicably happy.
"Ma'am, you go slowly."
Xue Wei still had a little little hope in her heart, "Adjutant Zhang, is it Mrs. Helian ......?"
"No, madam, I'm sorry, Yun Ming can't protect you and make you humiliated."
It turned out that she was here to apologize, Xue Mo smiled faintly, "It's nothing." Even if Helian Yao is here, he may not be able to disobey his own mother, I will go to the inn to stay, and you will inform me of any news. ”
"Madam, it's not safe for you to stay at your inn in such chaos in the city now. Let's go, I'll take you to live in my family's courtyard. ”
"Your other courtyard?"
"Well, the Zhang family is also a big family in Fengping, when the time comes, I will find a few people to guard it, and you can live with confidence."
Xue Mo didn't refuse, and there was no need to be polite to Adjutant Zhang at this time.
The courtyard of the Zhang family is called Yingyue Garden, although the courtyard is not big, but it is elegant and chic, but where is the snow in the mood to watch other people's gardens.
There is everything here, even the servants who cook and clean, and if Xue Wei usually asks him jokingly if this is the place where the golden house hides Jiaojiao. But now she's not in the mood.
After arranging everything, Adjutant Zhang went out again, he wanted to think of a way to rescue the young marshal, the grass and trees on Mirror Mountain were scarce, and there was not even a wild thing in this season, so they brought a day's dry food, not to mention that the enemy attacked, and they starved to death after a long time.
This is also Bai Changqing and Fu Yanjin's bad move, and on the second day, they not only cooked meat at the foot of the mountain, but also set up a charcoal stove to barbecue meat shabu shabu and drink a little wine.
Helian Hongde shot Helian Yao and knocked his hat off, and the bullet also grazed his scalp, making him lose a large chunk of his already unabundant hair. I also scratched my scalp and saw blood.
This ambitious overseer abandoned his family and wanted to take his young niece and nephew and his nephew's son to live and fly, but he didn't expect to be beaten by chickens and eggs, and now he was alone and bleeding, even if he was a prostitute in the camp, he couldn't get hot, and looking at his languishing body, he knew he was finished.
A person's spirit is over, his body is deteriorating very much, and in and out of his tent in the past few days are full of Chinese and Western medicine and all kinds of warlocks, but he doesn't care about Helian Yao on Mirror Mountain.
Bai Changqing and Fu Yanjin did not have a deep relationship, so this siege was not discussed, but they had a common goal, which was to pull the god of war off the altar. It's ugly to discredit him. With such an idea, they don't attack, you shabu-shabu and I barbecue, and get together to drink bamboo leaves, and the life is not comfortable.
In the blink of an eye, on the eighth day, Helian Yao took the less than 400 people to eat everything they could eat, and even killed the war horses, leaving only the snow to tread.
He picked up the knife several times, but as soon as he came into contact with Tayuki's gentle eyes, his scalp was numb, and he couldn't do it at all.
"Young marshal, I think it's better to forget it. If you don't have the snow, your legs ......."
It turned out that Helian Yao's leg was also hit by the bullet's fragments, but he endured it without saying anything, knowing that Li Cheng found the blood on his leg and found that he had given all the medicine to the wounded, and he endured it for several days.
Looking at his weak men, he asked, "How much ammunition do we have?" ”
Li Cheng had already counted 180 times, "and there were 200 rounds of ammunition, 50 pounds of explosives, and 30 ...... detonators."
"Okay," he handed the knife in his hand to Li Cheng, "kill Treadsnow." Let's have a full meal, tonight we raid. ”
"Tonight?" Li Cheng's hand holding the knife trembled a little.
"There are dark clouds in the west, there should be heavy rain tonight, and we take the opportunity to break through."
"But it's ...... to step on the snow"
"Everyone's horses are dead, and it's not one of them." At the end, the muscles in the corners of Helian Yao's eyes twitched, and he pursed his thin lips and closed his eyes slightly.
In addition to stepping on the snow, he is not just a horse, it has carried him through thousands of mountains and rivers, chased after the defeated enemy and evaded the pursuit of the enemy.
After all, the lifespan of animals is limited, Helian Yao once thought that one day he would be shot to death in front of the battle, and he also thought that it would be a dying old age, but he never thought that he would be used as food for his stomach.
Shepherd's right. No matter how reluctant he was, he always had so many last resorts.
When did his heart become so soft, or was it Helian Yao?
Suddenly, he shouted, "Stop." ”
The knife in Li Cheng's hand fell to the ground with a clatter, "Young marshal, you have to let go of the snow"
"Give me the knife."
Li Cheng picked up the knife and handed it to him, and Helian Yao strode towards the snow.
The pure black fierce horse, only four hooves of snow white, this horse was born like a king, even in this situation, it is still so powerful and chic.
Helian Yao fed the hay he had pulled to his mouth. "Tread the snow, eat, one last meal."
Na Ma was human, pricked up his ears and let out a magnificent cry, rubbing his horse's head against Helian Yao's face.
Closing his eyes, drowning out the tenderness of the man.
When he opened it again, his eyes were as transparent as glass, without a trace of warmth and emotion.
The knife in his right hand glowed with a cold light, and he didn't give himself a chance to hesitate, and with a poof, he stabbed into the soft neck of Treadxue.
His strength is steady and ruthless. Killed with a knife, and did not make Tyuki suffer too much.
The horse fell to the ground with a twitch, kicked on all fours, and frothed at the mouth and died.
Helian Yao threw away the knife in his hand, "That skin is cooked, and I will break through tonight." ”
He walked away without looking at the snow again.
Li Cheng squatted down and stroked Treadxue's eyes, "Baby, you can go in peace, the brother will kill a few more enemies to avenge you, don't blame the young marshal, he feels more uncomfortable than anyone else." ”
Qi Sanbao walked over and kicked Li Cheng's ass, "What are you kid muttering?" ”
Li Cheng wiped his tears, "I said goodbye to Tyuxue for the last time." ”
"I'm crying. Stinky boy, let me tell you, the soldier bleeds without tears, and after keeping your little cat urine, marry her mother-in-law and wash her heels. ”
Taking the knife in Li Cheng's hand, Qi Sanbao skillfully peeled off the horse, Li Cheng watched from the side, and asked hesitantly: "Commander Qi, do you think we can win this battle?" ”
Qi Sanbao turned Ma over neatly, "You have to boil." After all, these people are all put together for the sake of profit, and we can't turn over until they want to get tired of the whole moth. ”
"How long will it take?"
Qi Sanbao glanced at him, "How do I know?" You hapless boy, go aside. ”
"I don't know what happened to Chief of Staff Blue?"
"I'm not worried about Lao Lan, if he is really ruthless, he is afraid of himself, the grandsons in Yuzhou will not have good fruits to eat, what I am afraid of is the team in Bozhou, intercepting Bai Changqing's team, it is a bit mysterious."
That night, hundreds of people gathered around a pot of meat and ate quietly.
Everyone knows that what is cooked here is the young marshal's favorite war horse stepping on the snow, and there is no need to do pre-war mobilization, and everyone is full of energy to kill the enemy and take revenge.
Sure enough, it was pouring rain as Helian Yao expected, not to mention breaking through in such weather, even if you walk, you can't see clearly.
They can't see clearly, and the enemy can't see clearly.
Helian Yao arranged tactics and began to descend the mountain, and the group of grandsons at the bottom of the mountain hid in tents to hide from the rain, and there was not even a guard below.
Li Cheng charged ahead, he couldn't help but be overjoyed when he encountered this situation, it seemed that the enemy was tired, and tonight was definitely an opportunity.
Helian Yao and Qi Sanbao noticed that something was wrong.
It stands to reason that they should also beware of a breakthrough on the mountain in this kind of weather, and there must be something wrong with the guards being so lax.
Qi Sanbao's eyebrows jumped, and he said to the messenger beside him: "Go and inform Deputy Captain Li and ask him to bring someone back, there is an ambush ahead." ”
Bang! There was an explosion in the heavy rain, and the sky-high fire lit up the dark night. Even Helian Yao could see the broken flesh and blood flying up into the sky and falling like rain.
"Li Cheng!" Qi Sanbao is like a crazy bull, and he is about to rush forward.
Helian Yao grabbed him, "Qi Sanbao, won't you lose the battle if you only win the battle?" Fucking withdraw for me! ”
Such a heavy rain quickly washed away the blood gourd in front of him, the mountain road was winding and flowing with red blood lines, and the earth-shattering killing sound was more like thousands of troops fighting in the rain, Helian Yao fought and retreated, and when he retreated to the cave deep in the mirror mountain, there were more than 200 people left around him.
"Young Marshal, are you alright?" Qi Sanbao helped Helian Yao's arm and dipped his hand with blood.
Helian Yao waved his hand, "You go and see everyone." Leave me alone. ”
After Qi Sanbao left, Helian Yao leaned on the stone wall tiredly, he supported his head with his hands, and thought of Xue Xue a little out of place.
Perhaps, those words that died with her were just empty promises from him, and perhaps, in the future, Xue Mo was free to pursue the love she wanted.
Snowcere, snow.
Xue Xue woke up from her nightmare, and she watched Helian Yao roll down the mountain covered in blood, still calling her name.
Her heart ached, and she gasped for air. But every time she breathed her throat like a razor blade, her hands shook violently, and she wanted to pour a glass of water to moisten her throat, but before she could drink it, a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Xue Mo panicked and hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief, but the blood seemed to be unstoppable and leaked out of her fingers.
Hula, she accidentally touched the teacup to the ground.
This voice alarmed Xiao Xi, who was sleeping outside, and she ran in and shivered with fright when she saw blood everywhere, "Miss, Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”
Xue Mao waved his hand. She was so sore that she could barely speak, and sat on the bed with Xiaoxi in her arms.
'Pony pony. Xiaoxi ran outside and called for someone.
Soon, not only Xiaoma, but even Adjutant Zhang was alarmed, and he found a doctor in the middle of the night, but there was no big problem after checking the pulse, but he was in a hurry.
After the doctor left, Adjutant Zhang comforted Xue Wei, "Madam, don't worry, the young marshal Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he will be fine." ”
Xue Wei's thick and long eyelashes trembled, "It's the eighth day, are you lying to me or yourself?" ”
Adjutant Zhang was speechless and fell silent.
Suddenly, his men came in the rain to deliver the letter, and he went out for a moment and came back with a solemn face, "Madam, I have something to say to you." ”
