It is now the depths of winter, and the sun is still shining high during the day, but after nightfall, it is a cold wind that cuts the face, with a bone-eroding cold. The soldiers wore special armor to resist some wind and sand, but the joints were really poured into the cold wind.

Qing Xue quietly pulled the reins and staggered back a little before she dared to pull the cloak and wrap herself. For fear that the small movements would be discovered by Mu Chunju, she would be forced to take the carriage again.

"Qin'er, come here!" Mu Chun didn't know when he had turned his head and stretched out his hand to her.

"Huh?" Qing Xue was stunned for a moment, and then clamped the horse's belly to follow him.

"Come here" Mu Chun decided to take her hand and pull her onto his horse with a gentle touch.

Qing Xue looked at him in a daze, and at the same time, he already had an extra cloak on his body, and the whole person was wrapped tightly in Mu Chundu's arms, and at the same time, the two men who untied the cloak on the left and right took their hands back.

"Tired or not? If you're tired, you'll sleep. Mu Chundu's voice was very soft, with pity and exhaustion.

"Hmm" Qing Xue closed her eyes in his arms, but her hand didn't dare to touch him at all, for fear that he would accidentally take him away after falling asleep, and the soldiers behind him would have to be scared to death.

When he woke up again, it was already dawn, because the horses were not suitable for a long march in the desert, and the army had just arrived at the first post outside the capital, and Mu Chun ordered to be replaced by camels, so that the march slowed down a lot.

Pilan and Lou Qi are both south of Chiyun, if an alliance is formed, the two armies will converge as one, the difficulty of conquering will be greatly increased, and there will be a delay in time, once the Chongyuan Dao Chang is lost, and the army of Gu Luo and Luo Cave will be surrounded by him, Chiyun will fall into a situation of attacking from both sides, and it will be difficult to take care of the wolf soldiers and the fire and iron army no matter how brave they are.

Therefore, in order to seize the opportunity, Mu Chun decided to order the black halberd and the shadow brake to lead 30,000 wolf soldiers to the junction of Pichi and Louchi in advance, so as to disrupt the two countries' positions and delay the speed of the enemy's convergence.

The wind and sand swept by the distant mountains, and the army was exhausted after a day and a night of running, so Mu Chun decided to order them to camp on the spot around the post station.

Qing Xue looked at Mu Chundu, who was standing in the distance and commanding the wolf army, and her eyebrows tightened a little. She tried to persuade him to rest, but she knew it was useless.

Gu Sichen slowly walked behind Qing Xue and said with a light smile: "In the past, I didn't understand why you were so obsessed with him, but after these few days, I didn't know what it was to be ashamed of yourself. Compared to him, I, Gu Sichen, are really useless, and I can't even keep my own world. ”

Qing Xue turned around, looked at the man in front of him who had only been seen for a year, and pulled the corner of his lips to soothe: "He has his good, enough for me to pour out my life, but you also have your good, and the pear treats you sincerely." ”

Gu Sichen moved his Adam's apple, looked away from Qing Xue's face, looked into the distance and said, "I understand, it's a pity that this girl's heart is wrong after all." She had a difficult birth that day and almost died, you know? She said the same thing as you did, forcing the midwife to burst her belly open and take the baby out. Since then, I have vowed to protect her, but Qingxue, that is not love. ”

Gu Sichen recalled the bits and pieces with pears in the past year, and he was already full of guilt in his heart.

Qing Xue stepped forward and stood side by side with him, looked at the rising sun in the distance and said, "Perhaps, you can try to give her a little love." This girl has never been greedy, even if she only gives her a little, she will be content. You've already decided to let me go, haven't you? Wouldn't it be better to try to love someone who really loves you? ”

"Put you down?" Gu Sichen turned his head and sighed lightly: "That's not willing, if you don't love Mu Chun, I will never let go." It's like your nominal nephew, he only thinks Mu Chun is a stand-in, so he always has expectations. ”

"You know?" Qing Xue couldn't help but be a little surprised, except for her and Mu Chun, it was unlikely that others would know about such a thing.

"I like a person written on my face, and it will inadvertently shine through my eyes. Qingxue, I am in it, and I am also a bystander, this Wen Che is hostile to Mu Qing, I think you should be careful. ”

"Well, thank you!" Qing Xue turned her head sideways and looked at Gu Sichen, she seemed to owe him a lot, but all she could say was a word of thanks.

------

As soon as the march was halfway through, good news came from the border of Lou Chi, and the wolf soldiers led by Shadow Cha captured the three cities of Lou Chi in one day, and the enemy army that had planned to join the Pilan army also turned around and hurried to support.

The 30,000 troops led by the black halberd have also rushed to the border of Pilan, but due to the strength of the secret guards, the black halberd only captured Qicheng, the place where the soldiers must fight, according to Mu Chundu's order, and focused on strictly guarding against it without going further.

Mu Chun decided to convey the battle situation to Gu Sichen, and said: "I have already let the wolf soldiers cut off the connection between the two countries, and now we can reach the border in five days at most, and then we need to divide the troops into two ways, can the king of Pilan intend to lead his troops to recapture the world in person?" ”

Gu Sichen's face was full of shock when he heard this, and he only asked, "Are you really willing to hand over the troops in your hands to me?" Aren't you afraid that all of this is a conspiracy between me and the Dark Guard? If I take the army you allocated and never return, or unite with Lou Qi to turn around and encircle, I believe that even if the wolf soldiers are invincible in the world, this battle will not be easy, right? ”

Mu Chun Jue smiled lightly and said: "King Pilan should know that my Chiyun army is not a puppet that only recognizes military talismans, if King Pilan really leads the Chiyun army and never returns, it will only lead the wolf into the house, and it will only be the Pilan army that will be surrounded when it comes." Moreover...... I'm sure you won't. ”

"Oh?" Gu Sichen rode a camel closer to Mu Chunju, handed the note in his hand to Mu Chundu, and said, "Actually, I really had that kind of thought when you said that. ”

Mu Chun finally smiled when he heard this, holding the note, his eyes quietly dimmed a little. He only commanded behind him: "Continue to hurry" and borrowed Dao Li on the hunchback's back to fly into the distance, and Gu Sichen also followed.

Qing Xue looked at the figures of the two in the distance, and wanted to follow up to ask but endured it. She knew that if there was really anything urgent, Mu Chun would tell her, and if Mu Chun decided to hide it, it would be impossible for her to keep up with her light skills.

At this moment, Wen Che, who was originally a few meters behind, drove a camel towards her, and she could see Qingxue every day along the way, but she didn't say a word because of her identity, and she finally had a chance at this moment.

"Qingxue"

Qing Xue was startled when she was stunned, and then turned her head slightly and said, "You should call me uncle." ”

"You and I are only two years apart, and this aunt always feels awkward to arouse."

"But I did marry your uncle."

"But that person isn't." Wen Che looked into the distance meaningfully, and asked as if sighing: "Didn't you and that person really do a fake show?" If your uncle knows and doesn't know what to think, whether you have thought too much and been deceived by that person, or whether you dislike that your uncle is a wolf at the moment and change your mind. ”

Qing Xue was speechless for a while when she heard this, although Ding Qi and Mu Chun were exactly the same, their skin color and scars on their bodies were different. In the past, Mu Chun had a long knife wound on his hand, but Ding Qi did not have the slightest scar on his hand, so it was not surprising that Wen Che could be convinced that Mu Chun was an impostor.

It's just that he obviously doesn't intend to hide his mind when he asks like this now, so it's Qing Xue who is embarrassed.

"Why don't you speak? Is it default? Although Wen Che had a faint smile on his face, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes, which made people feel creepy when they saw it.

"What are you talking about?"

Mu Chun's voice broke the silence, Qing Xue finally breathed a sigh of relief, watching the two of them jump back into the hunchback, then swept away the chill of Fang Cai, turned his head and asked, "What are you going to discuss?" ”

"The king of Pilan will personally lead his troops to retake Piran, and I will only go with him to command the wolf soldiers. King Pelan doesn't know wolf language, and many things need to be adapted to as soon as possible. Mu Chun explained and tilted his head towards Gu Sichen again, and handed over a determined look.

And Gu Sichen also nodded and said: "King Chiyun is willing to borrow troops from me, and I should remember this affection." ”

Hearing this, Qing Xue looked at the expressions of the two of them and always felt a little weird, but she didn't ask anything more, only turned her head to look into the distance and asked, "Master, is there any news there?" ”

"Well, the wolf soldiers sent back the news last night, and the master had just reached the halfway point, but Gu Luo was greatly injured in the last battle, and only 50,000 soldiers were sent to this battle, and the wolf soldiers hidden in Gu Luo took advantage of the night to attack and harass many times, which greatly reduced the speed of the enemy's march, and it should not be a problem to delay until the masters arrived."

"That's good, General Xu is already very familiar with Gu Luo's tactics, and with artillery defense, the enemy army should not be able to attack it."

Qing Xue nodded, she was not sure about this battle before, but as the layout of Mu Chundu's decision gradually became apparent these days, Qing Xue's anxious heart was also relieved a lot.

"Well, I said you don't need to worry about these things, just remember that you promised me not to rush forward at any time. I will send Qingyin and Cai'er to protect you at all times, so you can stay behind and wait for news. ”

"I know, my ears are almost callousing along the way." Qing Xuejiao sneered and stuck out her tongue at him, and the fatigue caused by the two-day march also dissipated a lot.

"I'm just afraid that some people don't have a long memory!" Mu Chun raised his hand to pinch Qingxue's face as he spoke, but he thought of the soldiers behind him, and finally gave up.

The soldiers' suspicion of his identity was by no means inferior to Wen Che, and he did not have full confidence in what he said to Gu Sichen, but fortunately, there were only a few soldiers with the army in this battle, and it was the 70,000 wolf soldiers who were loyal to him at any time who really played a role on the battlefield.

As for the words on the paper just now, the matter discussed with them still needs to be discussed in the long run, and the battle situation is changing rapidly when the battle is really engaged, and it is not possible to have no worries if the layout is made in advance.
