Chu Zhiyue raised her eyes and looked at Bei Xuanyin, "I will." ”

She didn't ask how he knew Xin Li, nor did she ask why Bei Xuanyin cared so much about Zilong.

This seems to have vaguely formed a trust, and she also agreed, not for him, but also because of herself.

His eyes flickered and dimmed, but he reached out to take her into his arms.

As soon as her body stiffened, his breath lingered on the tip of her nose, and his body was warm, contrasting with his own coldness.

Chu Zhiyue's head fell on his shoulder, her eyes widened slightly, and she subconsciously wanted to push him away, but her hands were disobedient and she didn't move.

Bei Xuanyin's voice came from above her head, "Wait for me to come back." ”

His sentence of waiting for me to come back seemed to be engraved in Chu Zhiyue's heart.

On the same day, Bei Xuanyin and Nylon had already left.

Zhou Mingxu found two maids to take care of Zilong, and at the same time took Chu Zhiyue to inspect the main city.

Under Zhou Mingxu's rectification, the main city was extremely prosperous, but because of the war launched by Nanteng, most of the people were a little worried, and some were timid, and they had already packed up their things and fled to the north.

Chu Zhiyue knew that this time Nanteng Kingdom had captured a city in a few days, so she must have come prepared, and this war seemed to be inevitable.

She studied the terrain of Yongzhou that night, the geographical location of Yongzhou is not bad, there is a Cloud Gate Pass in front, offensive and defensive, Nanteng Kingdom wants to attack in, I'm afraid it is not so easy.

So Zhou Mingxu was also a little confident, and when the empress learned the news, she had already sent a mighty general, but unfortunately, she was blocked by floods on the way.

Chu Zhiyue felt a little strange, why did this suddenly flood?

However, the next day, Zhou Mingxu got the news again that the army of Nanteng Kingdom was approaching Yunmen Pass, and the 20,000 soldiers and horses guarding the town seemed to be unable to stop it.

Zhou Qing was shocked, that Cloud Gate Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, how can this be.

Zhou Mingxu read the secret letter before saying: "It seems that the Wu clan is helping, so that the Nanteng army is naturally like a tiger." ”

Chu Zhiyue frowned, she suddenly remembered Zilong, the Wu clan helped Nanteng Kingdom this time because they wanted to recapture Zilong.

In this way, things are a lot more troublesome.

Zhou Mingxu pondered for a while, and then said: "This time it's a tough battle, Zhou Qing, count the soldiers and horses, let's go to Yunmen Pass." ”

Zhou Qing replied yes, and Zhou Mingxu also continued: "Little county lord, Yongzhou can't stay for a long time, so you can take Zilong back to the capital first." ”

Chu Zhiyue's face was solemn, what she was best at in her previous life was fighting, although this is the era of cold weapons, but the art of war will not change much.

She said firmly: "Zhou Qing, you stay in the main city of Yongzhou, Lord Prefect, let's go to Yunmen Pass." ”

Zhou Mingxu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "No!" Little county lord, you are a daughter! ”

"If I can't even keep my fiefdom, I'm not the lord of Junyao, and I'm not a daughter!" Chu Zhiyue said, "The soldiers and horses sent by the imperial court were blocked in the middle of the road, could this be such a coincidence?" ”

Zhou Mingxu is also a human being, he naturally knows that this is the empress who wants to suppress Yongzhou, I am afraid that he wants Yongzhou to use his own troops to consume first, and then the army will come to support.

In this way, even if he wins, he will have nothing to do with Yongzhou, and Yongzhou itself will be greatly injured, and he may not have the strength to compete with the imperial court in the future.

On the same day, Chu Zhiyue and Zhou Mingxu went to the barracks to count the soldiers and horses, and then rushed to Yunmen Pass, as for Zilong, it was taken care of by Zhou Qing.

At this time, news also came out from the capital of Beiling Kingdom, the county lord of Junyao knew that Yongzhou was in trouble, and had rushed to Yongzhou at this time, and this news was spread, naturally it was the handiwork of Qin Jingfeng and Meng Liang, so that Chu Zhiyue's appearance in Yongzhou also had an explanation.

After the Cloud Gate Pass, there was Wu Cheng, where the Yongzhou soldiers stayed first and then to the Cloud Gate Pass.

After three days of marching, everyone was tired, and Chu Zhiyue also rested early, but in the middle of the night, she felt that her ears were a little **, she suddenly opened her eyes and hit forward with one hand.

Someone sneered in the darkness, and the voice was clear: "Little girl, don't be so angry, if you really hit my beautiful face, I will be very sad." ”

Chu Zhiyue was stunned, and found that the person who came was actually Bu Chongtian!

Speaking of which, she hasn't seen Bu Chongtian for more than a month.

"Aren't you in Nanteng Country?" Chu Zhiyue was surprised, and looked at the red clothes of the first step in the dark as if they were stained with blood.

Bu Chongtian stared at her with a pair of eyes and asked, "Who told you that I was in Nanteng Kingdom?" ”

Chu Zhiyue pursed her lips and said, "Didn't you say that your second senior brother had an accident?" ”

Bu Chongtian said: "I have been expelled from the division, he is not my second senior brother." ”

She didn't speak, looked away, and said, "Then what are you doing here?" ”

Bu Chongtian said naturally: "Take you away." ”

Chu Zhiyue frowned and said, "Now that Yongzhou is facing a catastrophe, how can I go." ”

"Nan Tengguo and the Wu clan have joined forces, and they are invincible. And Empress Ling Rong deliberately didn't let the army come to reinforce her, don't you understand? The empress wants to sacrifice your Yongzhou! Bu Chongtian said, "Believe it or not, Cloud Gate Pass will be breached this morning!" ”

Chu Zhiyue is a spirit, and her eyes and ears are all over the world, which she believes.

She grabbed Bu Chongtian's arm with one hand, "This morning? Why?! ”

"Dongxue Country was obtained by Dongxue Ziheng, even if the empress was sad, but she also secretly found out that this matter is related to you, this is to deal with you, so the people of Yunmen Pass deliberately lost to Nantengguo." Bu Chongtian said, "Don't delay, as soon as the army of Nanteng Kingdom comes, this Yongzhou will be captured, you can go with me." ”

He had come here in a hurry, just to take her away.

Chu Zhiyue immediately got up, and said with some anger: "Even if you want to deal with me, you don't have to sacrifice the entire Yongzhou!" She's still the emperor! Once Yongzhou is breached, how many people will be harmed?! ”

Bu Chongtian kills people like hemp, and in his eyes, human life is not worth mentioning at all.

But in Chu Zhiyue's eyes, the people are the foundation of a country.

Bu Chongtian still smiled and said, "It's too late, when the day dawns, the Nanteng army will attack Wucheng." ”

Chu Zhiyue knew that the situation was urgent, she shook her head and said, "Yongzhou is mine, I am the commander of Yongzhou, and I am also in charge of the Yongzhou order, I can't leave today." ”

Bu Chongtian made a move and said, "That's not up to you, seeing you die, my heart will break." ”

Chu Zhiyue blocked with both hands and kept up with Bu Chongtian's speed, Bu Chongtian was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Chu Zhiyue's martial arts to have made great progress.

The two slapped each other, and Bu Chongtian originally had the upper hand, but Chu Zhiyue's internal force became feminine and cold, and Bu Chongtian felt that his palm was as cold as a layer of frost.

He landed a few steps away from the bed, looked at Chu Zhiyue, and always felt that something was wrong, why was Chu Zhiyue's internal strength not as good as him, but was able to suppress him?

Chu Zhiyue said, "Bu Chongtian, I ask you for one thing." ”

"You're stubborn and won't go, are you?" Bu Chongtian's voice complained.

"If your step gate is in trouble, will you go?" Chu Zhiyue asked.

Bu Chongtian was silent for a while before he said, "What's the matter?" You say. ”

"You go to the main city of Yongzhou and find a person named Zhou Qing, he has a child named Zilong, you protect Zilong and hand it over to Bei Xuanyin in the future." Chu Zhiyue said.

Bu Chongtian muttered: "Bei Xuanyin? His children? ”

Chu Zhiyue didn't want to explain, she had already put on her coat, walked out, and turned around and said, "Please this time." ”

"Chu Zhiyue!" Bu Chongtian shouted at her.

Chu Zhiyue stopped and turned to look at Bu Chongtian.

"What you want to protect, is it Yongzhou?" Bu Chongtian asked, "Except for Yongzhou, you don't have anything you want to protect?" ”

"Only when there is a country can there be a home, even if I have someone I want to protect, I must first guard Yongzhou." Chu Zhiyue said, "Bu Chongtian, do you understand this? ”

Bu Chongtian smiled suddenly, Chu Zhiyue couldn't see his expression clearly, and only felt that Bu Chongtian's anger was a few points heavier.

"Hopefully, you'll understand and be able to do what you've been entrusted with." Chu Zhiyue said.

"You just believe me?"

Chu Zhiyue nodded, but still said, "Well, I believe you." ”

Bu Chongtian smiled even more, and stopped talking, and disappeared without a trace.

Chu Zhiyue didn't delay, so she woke up Zhou Mingxu and told him that Yunmen Pass would not be able to hold it, and several important generals immediately discussed countermeasures.

At the same time, the spies of Yunmen Pass reported that Yunmen Pass had been lost, and the army of Nanteng Kingdom had attacked Wucheng.

"There are a total of 100,000 troops in Nanteng! And we have 20,000 soldiers and horses in Yongzhou! A vanguard general said, "Do we need to retreat to the main city of Yongzhou?" ”

"Can't be returned. Even if you retreat to the main city of Yongzhou, you are waiting for death, and now you can't mess up the morale of the army, instead of waiting for death in the main city, it is better to fight to the death with the Nanteng army in Wucheng! Chu Zhiyue said.

Those generals didn't expect Chu Zhiyue to have such courage, and they immediately admired her very much.

There are still many people in Wucheng, and they can't leave at the moment, Chu Zhiyue looked at the map, and said: "Seeing that the army is coming, we only have two hours to set up the formation." ”

"Array? Aren't we defending Wu City and waiting for the imperial court to support? One person was a little surprised, and even a little mocking, thinking that Chu Zhiyue was just a daughter, and she didn't know how to march and fight at all, but now she was talking nonsense and pointing fingers here.

Zhou Mingxu pursed his lips, time was pressing, they were defending Wu City, and it wouldn't take many days.

Chu Zhiyue's eyes were cold, and she took out the Yongzhou order.

Everyone's faces changed, but they didn't expect Chu Zhiyue to directly take out the Yongzhou order, the color of the red lotus shook in front of everyone, and everyone didn't know how to refute it out loud.

Zhou Mingxu immediately understood what Chu Zhiyue meant, and he immediately said: "The prefect of Yongzhou listens to the instructions of the county lord of Junyao and swears to defend Yongzhou to the death!" ”
