Chapter 188

When Bai Lijing and others rushed to Huangshui Pass, they were very surprised that it was not General Situ's generals who came out to greet her, but Du Haoyu, the general soldier of Youzhou who had just been named the general of Zhenbei. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Du Haoyu is about forty years old, burly, with a Chinese face, broad sideburns, and no smiles, only a few words of greeting and ordering someone to arrange their residence, and seems to be absent-minded.

Bai Lijing asked, "General Du, what about General Situ?" ”

Du Haoyu's thick eyebrows frowned slightly, and said: "In order to avoid suspicion, General Situ has retreated to the clouds to garrison, and he has deployed troops and horses in the rear. ”

"Avoiding suspicion?" Bai Lijing didn't understand the meaning of this word, but stared at Du Haoyu and blurted out.

Du Haoyu sighed, and before he could reply, he saw a horse galloping from the direction of the city gate, and the person on the horse suddenly jumped down and knelt down: "Tell General Du!" Here it comes! ”

After hearing this, Du Haoyu pressed the long sword on his waist and hurriedly said to Baili Jing: "Princess Jing, Situ He took refuge in the Turks, and at this moment he personally led the Turkic barbarians to kill under the city tower!" I will retire! ”

With that, Du Haoyu stepped across the horse.

The second uncle was not there, but He still attacked the city checkpoint of Daxing "as promised", and all this happened outside the Huangshui Pass! Bailijing didn't care about anything else, turned over and stepped on the horse's back, and chased towards Du Haoyu's figure.

She had a hundred unbelievers, a thousand unbelievers, and she had to see them with her own eyes, and the closer she got to the gates, the clearer the clash of swords, the screams, and the neighing of horses...... Her mind was in a mess, was Hee really outside?

Lit up the waist card and boarded the city tower, looking at the battlefield outside the gate, the yellow sand flying in the sky, the two armies of Daxing and the Turks fought against each other in front of the city gate, Du Haoyu watched the battle on the city tower, and the military division on the side and the personal guards under his command said indignantly: "It's really Situ He!" It's his sword and the Darkiron Armor, yes! There's nothing wrong with the moves! I didn't expect him to really take refuge in the Turks, and slaughter my Daxing soldiers so ruthlessly! What a wolf's heart! ”

"It's his face! It's Situ He! We drank together back then, this shameless traitor! I'm going to kill him! Someone angrily drew his sword.

"Princess Jing?" Du Haoyu didn't say a word, and suddenly found Bai Lijing standing on the side and called softly.

However, Bai Lijing couldn't hear any sound, her eyes followed the figure in front of the Turkic array motionlessly, his dark iron armor was so familiar, and his face was so familiar, she watched him cut off the heads of one Daxing soldier after another, stabbing their chests with the sword in his hand, splashing blood all over his body.

It's Hyuk's face, that's right.

It's He's sword, that's right.

It's He's Darkiron Armor, and that's right.

But......

Bai Lijing suddenly turned around and rushed down the city tower.

Just when Du Haoyu and the others thought that she couldn't stand the blow and dodged, a slender and thin figure ran across the city gate, rushed left and right among thousands of soldiers, and came to Situ He's side.

Bai Lijing never thought that the first time she went to the battlefield to kill the enemy was her cousin, her eyes were murderous, wrapped in anger and hatred that could not be eliminated, all the results of exercising arm strength that had been taught by Han Ye broke out at this moment, the strength of each sword was cut back by Situ He, the sun and the moon and the dragon sword were sharpened like clay, even Situ He's Xuantie sword could not stop her attack and broke into two, and then, Bai Lijing ruthlessly pierced Situ He's armor -

A sword in the chest.

The blood flowed like an infusion.

Situ He's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at her face as he approached. All the people on the battlefield and on the castle tower were stunned. Situ He betrayed the country, so Princess Jing killed him desperately?

However, this does not mean the end.

Bai Lijing suddenly grabbed Situ He's face and ruthlessly peeled off a layer of human skin mask!

"Want to pretend to be He? It's a pity that I'm here. Bai Lijing sneered and withdrew her sword, and the blood gushing out with her movements splashed her face, making her whole person look extremely hideous and terrifying.

Situ He, who had come as the vanguard general of the Turks, fell from his horse with a bang, and lay on his back on the ground, dead and dead, but his face was very different from before, which caught the soldiers of both sides by surprise.

Under the cover of the pro-guards, Bai Lijing held up the human skin mask and said loudly: "I am Bai Lijing, the princess of Rongchang in Daxing!" This General He is clearly fake! I have the human skin mask in my hand as proof! No one recognized General He, which only shows that the Turks have put in a lot of effort! If the soldiers still don't believe me, they can take off this man's armor and strip him of his clothes, and I bet he won't have countless battlefield scars on his body! General He's repeated military exploits in the past four years have been earned by relying on these scars, not by deceiving the reputation of the Situ family! When he was seventeen years old, he once said that he would be a great general of Daxingguo, defend the territory of Daxing without losing an inch of land, and protect the peace and well-being of the people of Daxing! How could a person like him betray the people of the country for the sake of the small profits of the Turkic barbarians? ”

Bai Lijing turned to look at the Turks and sneered: "If Situ He has the heart to be a concubine, which of my Daxing princesses will not compete to marry him?" Use your brains to think about it, what is better than me in the wilderness of the Turkic region? Is it worth Situ He to put a good future and personally lead you brutal and shameless barbarians to invade my country?! Your purpose is nothing more than to sow discord! Situ He can die on the battlefield and bury his bones in a foreign land, or even die without a place to be buried, but he must not become a tool used by others and suffer this unexplained wrong! ”

Baili Jing shouted hoarsely, and her eyes full of murderous intent were moistened by a layer of water vapor that floated, becoming darker and brighter and brighter, with indestructible determination.

"Kill all the Turkic barbarians! Get out of my territory! ”

"Kill all the Turkic barbarians! Get out of my territory! ”

“……”

Most of the soldiers on the battlefield had seen Situ He, or had served under him, at first they were so angry when they heard the news that Situ He had defected to the Turks, and now when they learned the truth, they were even more eager to break the Turks into pieces, they shouted slogans, and their morale was out of control.

The Turkic army lost its main general, and the army was already disheartened, and then saw that the plan was exposed, the enemy was unstoppable, and for a time only cared about running left and right to flee for his life, the battle of Huangshui Pass, more than half of the Turkic army was killed and wounded, and Bailijing became famous in a battle.

In the evening, the soldiers were busy cleaning up the battlefield, Du Haoyu walked down the city tower, greeted Baili Jing's war horse, and said: "Princess Jing is too reckless, if there is an accident, how can the end be able to bear it?" ”

Bai Lijing was still holding the human skin mask in her hand, the blood on her face had not been wiped away, and she smiled coldly: "Doesn't General Du think that he should go to the court first to correct Situ He's name?" ”

Du Haoyu choked.

Bai Lijing refused to give up: "The previous rumors are all false, some people deliberately framed the Situ family, in a vain attempt to make the Situ family irreversible with a human skin mask." Moreover, even I, a person who does not understand the art of war and tactics, can see that in the battle just now, the Turks did not send enough troops to go all out. Huangshui Pass is the northwest gateway of my Daxing, and it is an important place, why do they think that they can easily win with just one Situ He? There is only one explanation, the reason why they came to attack Huangshui Pass was not to think about winning, but to make Situ He's surrender to the Turks a reality, let the Daxing court set off civil strife, let the Situ family hand over the military power with full authority, and then take advantage of the unstable heart of the three armies to attack the city without much effort! ”

After that, Bai Lijing squinted at Du Haoyu: "How can this little trick not even be seen through by General Du?" ”

Du Haoyu lowered his eyes slightly, was silent for a while, and said: "If there is no Princess Jing, the Northwest Army will completely lose this battle, and the princess's performance surprised the last general." ”

Bai Lijing knew that he was referring to seeing through and killing the fake Situ He, so she smiled bitterly: "I am almost seventeen years old now, and I have been with him for twelve years...... It's normal that you don't recognize him. Anyone can dislike him, but they must not ruin his reputation and accuse him of doing something he has never done before, just because I know what kind of person he is. ”

After riding a horse side by side for a while, Du Haoyu suddenly said faintly: "It seems that General He seems to be very important to Princess Jing. However, there is a question that the last general feels still needs to ask, are General He's armor and weapons real? ”

Bai Lijing nodded: "Yes." ”

"So, Princess Jing exposed the fake General He on the battlefield this time, if the real General He did not die, but was trapped in the Turkic camp, then, would he be very dangerous?" Du Haoyu said.

Bai Lijing twisted her eyebrows: "Yes, it's dangerous." "Since the armor and weapons have fallen into the hands of the Turks, there is no doubt that Hehe has been captured, and if the Turks become angry, Hehe will not escape death.

However, there was no choice, she did what she had to do today, and compared to life and death, He would not be willing to suffer this great wrong.

Du Haoyu specially arranged a clean courtyard for Baili Jing in the inner city, and after freshening up, Liu Changqing came over and said with a smile: "Princess Jing, the good news to Shengjing has been sent, and I believe that General He will be able to return his innocence soon." Your bravery today surprised the minister, and the conversation with General Du was also well-founded. ”

Bai Lijing said embarrassedly: "It was all taught by Liu Junshi along the way." ”

"The minister has never taught the princess to take the life of the first general on ......the battlefield," Liu Changqing said with a smile.

Bai Lijing couldn't laugh: "I'm worried about whether He has been poisoned." ”

Liu Changqing sat down at the table, looked at the last quarter moon in the sky and said, "Does Princess Jing know how many people the Situ family has sacrificed for the sake of Daxing's society?" ”

Bai Lijing frowned, thinking about it and replied: "My grandfather died of illness, and my eldest cousin died on the battlefield a few years ago, if He is counted......"

"Hehe, Princess Jing, the so-called sacrifice does not necessarily mean death." Liu Changqing stroked his beard, "General Rui Xiao was also trapped in Dingxiang Pass in the battle with the Turks, and as soon as Dingxiang Pass was broken, his body was hung on the city tower for three days and three nights, almost dry. The government and the opposition were shocked, and the queen mother was furious, and almost put on her armor again and went to the battlefield. ”

Bai Lijing is the first time to hear people talk about the tragic situation of the murder of her eldest cousin Situ Rui, she is really a princess who does not know the suffering of the world.

"I'm afraid the princess doesn't know that in this most remote place in the northwest, where the queen mother has stayed here for seven years." Liu Changqing looked at Bai Lijing and nodded: "Initially, it should be ...... It's your current age, princess. ”

"Why?" Bai Lijing was surprised, the queen mother kept silent about this experience, and there was no record of this in the historical materials, only that the queen mother had outstanding military achievements and had resisted several southern invasions of the Turks.

Liu Changqing smiled: "This is what the minister just said...... Sacrifice. As if remembering the memories of the past, he sighed: "In those seven years, the Turks would be frightened when they heard the name of the queen's mother, and gave her the nickname 'Blood Rakshasa'......"

Bailijing wanted to laugh, but the corners of her mouth hurt, and she was quite puzzled: "My father told me that it is enough for a girl to live an ordinary life, and she does not need to make contributions to defend her family and country, but the queen mother has not been able to be an ordinary woman, which is too contradictory." ”

Liu Changqing didn't solve her puzzles again, got up and said: "The princess should not think nonsense, wait until the imperial decree arrives, and then discuss how to act." The minister retired first. ”

Baili Jing watched his figure go away, and always felt that Liu Changqing seemed to have a lot to say, but he didn't tell her for a long time, what else did the "sacrifice" he referred to? The last thing she wanted was to risk He's life.

"Princess, the northwest is not as good as the south of the Yangtze River, and it is very cold at night, so quickly put on your clothes and go into the house." A young girl took a cloak and put it on Bailijing's shoulders.

The accompanying guards are all men, and in order to take care of Baili Jing's convenience, Du Haoyu also arranged two maids for her quite carefully, both of whom are slaves and maids in Huangshui Pass.

Bai Lijing returned to the room and saw the human skin mask on the table, which was very finely made, and deceived many people. Because she is very familiar with He, she can tell the real from the fake at a glance, and if those people she doesn't know wear such masks, then she can't see through them from beginning to end...... How many people around her are wearing terrible masks?

……

In the middle of the night, two slight conversations came from the distant wilderness, and one said: "Now that the fake and real strategy has been discovered, and on such a battlefield in front of the vast public, it is no longer possible to frame Situ and his son!" The princess who gets in the way...... Find a way to get rid of her! ”

One person hurriedly said: "No! ”

"Why? Outside the generals, the military order is not subject to it. Since she can make great contributions, she will naturally die because of an accident, this is a battlefield, nothing is impossible! ”

The man hesitated: "No." She can't die. Even if you die, you can't die in Huangshui Pass. ”

"Don't worry, I will make arrangements and won't embarrass you......"
