Thirteen looked up at Liang Yan and Li Xuanyi, who was standing beside her, and replied with lowered eyes: "Thirteen is a dead soldier of the Shangguan family, loyal to the Shangguan family, and even more loyal to my young lady!" If the young lady has anything, she should tell Thirteen to do it. It's a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, and Thirteen will never blink! ”

Liang Yan was slightly stunned.

General Fu glared at Liang Yan, such an important matter, could she have already told Thirteen to know?

Thirteen saw General Fu's eyes, and immediately said, "My young lady didn't say anything to her subordinates. It's the subordinates' own guesses. My young lady was nervous about Adjutant Ding's injury, and she was busy for several hours in a row, not even eating, and staring at Adjutant Ding's hand without blinking, for fear of another accident. But Li Xianfeng said, 'Go to the general's tent', and the young lady entrusted Adjutant Ding to Dr. Lu to guard. The subordinates dared to guess that this matter must be more important than Adjutant Ding's broken arm, and it was discussed in the general's tent, so it must be an official matter. At present, the most important official matter can only be to deal with the invading soldiers of the Tibetan Hui. Thirteen is not talented, but as a man of the Great Zhou, he also has the ambition to serve the country. When I saw that the general had left others out, leaving only Li Xianfeng and my young lady to discuss in the tent, it should be a secret matter that is inconvenient for outsiders to know. Thirteen is loyal to the eldest lady, if there is anything that thirteen can serve, please miss, the general trusts his subordinates! ”

Liang Yan looked at Thirteen in a daze, his analysis and judgment were so organized and accurate. No wonder Shangguan Ruixing asked Thirteen to lead everyone to escort her.

Thinking of the thirteen who took care of and protected her along the way, and resisted the interception and pursuit of Ouchi masters at the cost of his life, he was a credible person.

Li Xuanyi's gaze fell on Thirteen's body with a deep meaning.

Does he want to show loyalty to the general, or is he anxious to show loyalty to Liang Yan?

General Fu looked at him and did not speak for a while.

can quickly analyze the situation in his heart, and the accuracy of the analysis shows that he is not bad at resourcefulness. The courage to seize the opportunity and the courage to recommend himself without fear of death shows that he is not bad. Brave and resourceful, if he is really a loyal person, he is indeed the best person for this matter.

In the general's tent, there was silence for a while.

Several people pondered in their own hearts, but they were not decided.

But Liang Yan opened her mouth first: "I don't dare to say anything else, I know the loyalty of Thirteen." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a burning gaze behind her, and when she looked back, she saw Li Xuanyi staring at her with burning eyes full of displeasure.

She said that Thirteen was a credible person, and she didn't say anything about it, so what's so jealous about this? He's like this, it's a sign of jealousy, right?

Hearing this, Thirteen straightened his back, and the corners of his mouth showed a little joy.

"It's just that this matter needs to be risked, a trick is not very good, and your life is not guaranteed, are you willing to accept the order?" General Fu looked at Thirteen and asked in a deep voice.

Thirteen arched hands, "Thirteen thousand deaths!" ”

"Good! It's a hero! General Fu patted him on the shoulder with his big hand and said.

Liang Yan looked at Thirteen, he volunteered to ask for his life, although he knew that this matter was dangerous, he did not flinch, she naturally had nothing to say.

Li Xuanyi did not object, although he always felt that Thirteen's request was for the Great Zhou, for the court, or for someone...... It's still up for debate, but no matter why, as long as it's beneficial to the battle situation, this is not the time to care about these details.

The four of them had a secret discussion.

General Fu personally named the thirteenth lieutenant of Li Xuanyi and temporarily took over Ding Fan's position.

When Liang Yan returned to Ding Fan's camp, she heard that Thirteen had been sent by Li Xuanyi to lead people to clean up the battlefield.

To clean up the battlefield is to check on one side, to see if there are any wounded soldiers and remnants who are still alive, to bring them back, to see if there are any weapons that can still be used, and to pick them up. The corpses of the dead soldiers were simply buried on the spot.

When the two sides collect their troops and clean up the battlefield separately, they generally do not disturb each other and do not attack each other. Because both sides have been fighting for a day, and the soldiers are tired, you hit me, I will fight you again, such a tired war of attrition is not good for both sides. After the troops were withdrawn with the beating of drums, there was a rule of non-aggression.

Of course, this is just a general situation.

There are general, and naturally there are exceptions.

It was already getting late, and in the barracks in the distance, torches had been lit, and from a distance, the flames were bright and extinguished.

Everyone hurriedly finished checking and wanted to go back quickly.

Thirteen glanced at the battlefield where I don't know how many bones were buried, and waved his hand: "Collect the troops, go back to the camp!" ”

The crowd marched back in a line shouting slogans.

Thirteen walked behind and glanced back at the battlefield, as if waiting for something.

Suddenly, I heard the faint sound of someone calling for help in the distance.

"And the wounded haven't been found?" Thirteen asked.

"No more! We've all checked it out! The soldiers didn't have a lot of good feelings about this sudden arrival, who had never fought side by side with them in a bloody battlefield before, but suddenly succeeded Ding Fan as their general. After speaking, without waiting for Thirteen's order, he turned his head and continued to walk quickly in the direction of the camp.

Thirteen stood there and listened, he had practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his ears were outstanding, and he was convinced that he had heard the cry for help.

He glanced at the soldiers who had already walked away, and hurried in the direction of the cry for help.

A soldier covered in bloody clothes was lying in a piece of the enemy's corpse, weakly holding "help", his arm was raised up, and he kept waving, trying to let people find his hand, but he couldn't stop trembling.

He was crushed under two corpses, as if he couldn't break free.

Thirteen approached, "Don't worry, I'm here to save you, bear with me, I'll move the body first!" ”

The man seemed to cry blood in his throat, muttered twice indistinctly, and lowered his hand.

Thirteen bent down and just picked up the corpse, and there was something cold around his neck.

He looked down and saw a sharp scimitar, reflecting the scimitar-like moon in the sky, glowing with a cold cold light.

"Don't move, my knife doesn't have long eyes, don't blame me if I move, my head falls off!" The voice of the man with the knife was as cold as the light of a knife.

Thirteen raised his eyes and looked around.

The "corpses" that were originally lying on the ground, but at this time, many of them stood up, and the group surrounded him in the middle, and everyone held sharp blades with blood grooves in their hands, and the murderous aura shrouded him.

Even the person who was pressed under the corpse and asked him for help pushed away the corpse pressed on his body, drew out a diamond-shaped short sword with a blood groove, and said in a cold and hoarse voice: "We just want to take you back and ask you a few questions." If you cooperate, you will not be harmed. If you don't know each other, you can shout and try. ”

Thirteen looked back at the soldiers who had come with him to clean up the battlefield.

The night was dark, and their figures were long out of sight.

The man with the scimitar sneered: "I'm afraid that if you shout, they won't hear it!" You're alone, so it's better to be honest! One of us can stab you into a sieve! ”

Thirteen did not panic, and said in a deep voice with a cold face: "The drum guards don't offend each other!" Now that the drums have been sounded on both sides, you are acting unfaithfully and unjustly! ”

The man with the scimitar: "Let's say it just now, I don't want your life, as long as you know each other, the general will only ask a few questions, and let you come back!" ”

Thirteen shook his head, "I'm just afraid that I don't know anything about the questions you want to ask, and I have nothing to say!" ”

"What nonsense to talk to him, tie him up and take it away!" The man pretending to be a dead body shouted.

Without warning, the man with the scimitar turned his hand and slashed at the back of Thirteen's neck, and Thirteen's eyes were black and unconscious.

When he woke up again, he was lying on a thick felt lichen, and when he looked around, there was a small tent, and around the tent stood the Tibetan guards.

The guard was expressionless with a spear in his hand.

"Woke up pretty quickly." Voices came from behind him.

Thirteen looked back, and saw a person lying on the huge bearded bed, wearing a tiger skin crown on his head, wearing a tiger skin coat, and a few short knives hanging from his waist, looking at him with a smile.

"When you see our general, you don't salute!" Standing next to him was the man who had pretended to be dead, "Oh, I forgot, you tied it, I'm afraid you can't salute!" ”

Thirteen snorted coldly, "Enemy general, what is the courtesy?" ”

The man had to speak again.

The general snorted: "An Muji! ”

The man stopped and took a step back.

The general lowered his eyes and looked at Thirteen lying on the ground, and said slowly: "I heard that you are an adjutant?" ”

Thirteen snorted coldly and did not answer.

The general smiled disapprerovingly, looked at the people around him, and said, "Look! Let you go and invite people, that's how you 'invite'? This is our honored guest! ”

The general said, sitting up from the bed, "Come on, loosen the tie!" ”

The rope that was tied to Thirteen's body was immediately cut by someone who stepped forward.

Thirteen moved his lower arm, and his whole body was very sore for I don't know how long it had been tied.

But his face did not change, and his expression was condensed: "I can't be the general's distinguished guest, I don't know what the general wants to ask, and I won't answer." ”

General Tubo raised his hand, "Eh, don't say it so absolutely, I only ask you a few small questions, and you answered it so well, it's good for you and me!" ”

Thirteen's face was indifferent and unmoved.

An Muji stepped forward and said: "If you know each other and answer the question, let's let you go, if you don't know how to lift, hum!" ”

The Tubo general smiled: "You Central Plains people, don't you have a saying that 'those who know the times are handsome'?" You must be a handsome adjutant, right? I only ask you, in recent days, the soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou Dynasty seem to be extremely brave and spiritual, far better than before, what is the mystery? I haven't heard where you've brought in a large army to support you? ”

Thirteen snorted coldly, "Our army fights for the people of the frontier, for the Great Zhou, and for the expulsion of you invaders. Since he is a righteous man, he will overcome everything! ”

The Tubo general sneered again and again, and looked up and down the thirteen Dao: "You are so iron-clad, you don't care about your life, how much money does the Great Zhou Dynasty give you?" Can it be used to supplement the household? ”

Thirteen faces are now disdainful, "The general's words are narrow-minded, I am above to serve the court, and below to protect the people, and how much Yulu will not affect my loyalty to Da Zhou!" Less nonsense, today a certain fell into your hands, it is a certain person whose skills are not as good as others, and if you want to kill, you must listen to it! ”

The general of Tubo clapped his hands, and immediately walked in from outside the tent three graceful figures, scantily dressed, with light veils covering their faces, revealing only a pair of smart women who seemed to be seductive, one holding a wooden box in his hand.

The three of them stood still in front of Thirteen.

Thirteen's calm face finally showed a hint of waves, and he seemed to take a step back in embarrassment.

The Tibetan general laughed out loud, "Open!" ”

Three graceful women raised their hands to open the wooden box in their arms.

Suddenly it was as if the whole tent was lit up. The precious gold in the wooden box reflects the candlelight, and the person who shakes it can't open his eyes.

Thirteen stared, his face a little unnaturally turned away.

General Tubo said: "Adjutant take a good look, this treasure, can you look at it?" ”

Thirteen craned his neck and stiffened his face, not looking into the box in the woman's arms.

An Muji sneered on the side.

The Tubo general said: "You pick it up and take a look?" ”

Thirteen naturally refused to touch it.

One of the women stepped forward and stuffed the wooden box full of precious gold in her arms into Thirteen's arms, and the whole person fell into Thirteen's arms. Thirteen subconsciously caught the wooden box, but turned sideways to avoid the woman, and the woman stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

The woman's snake-like soft and boneless arm climbed on Thirteen's shoulder, "The official doesn't know how to pity the jade!" ”

The unfamiliar Central Plains dialect made her speak a little awkwardly.

Thirteen frowned and sideways away from her, but the wooden box in his hand was held very tightly and did not let go.

General Tubo's gaze kept falling on Thirteen, staring at him without missing the slightest movement of him. Looking at his hand holding the wooden box tightly, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, "If you hold the things in this box, even if you don't need it, you can give it to your family, so that the old mothers, good wives and young children in the family can live a better life!" Or buy them a more comfortable and spacious mansion, or add a few sets of head jewelry to their wives, or hire a mentor for their young son! You have been in the army for a long time, have you ever missed your family? If you can't spend time with your family, you will inevitably have regrets in your heart, right? This is how much to make up for the regrets in my heart! ”

The Tibetan general said, pointing to the box full of treasures.

Seeing that the thirteen faces were really not as cold and firm as suitable, and there was even more struggle and hesitation in his eyes, General Tubo smiled, "My requirements are not high, as long as you tell me, what tricks the Great Zhou army has played, why it is abnormal, these things are given to you, and you will be put back well!" ”
