Chapter 273: Find out
Li Xingchen quietly stole a war horse of the United Army, and the two of them rode two horses and rushed in the direction where the 500,000 army came.
Li Xingchen desperately wanted to know where they had been.
However, there was already a coalition army in the vicinity that was vigorously searching for them, so the figure of the two galloping on horseback appeared, and they were discovered by them, and they chased wildly on horseback, anyway, this direction is the same as the planned marching direction.
As the minutes passed, the first two horses ran wildly, and hundreds of thousands of horses chased wildly behind, raising a cloud of dust.
Because Sima Zhen's horse is an ordinary war horse, the speed is not as fast as Li Xingchen's, so Li Xingchen always stops and stops, and when he catches up, he continues to move forward.
Seeing that the enemy army behind them was about to fall, the two of them stopped waiting at the same time.
After all, the weather is getting hotter and hotter now, and the combined army is marching together, which is much hotter than the two in front, and the dust is enough for them to drink a pot.
Finally, in the afternoon, Li Xingchen and Sima Zhen rushed to a place with strange terrain.
It is surrounded by several high mountains, lush forests, almost completely enclosed around and a steep interior.
Suddenly, a plan came to Li Xingchen's heart.
It is difficult to get into a large number of people here, the narrow passages are narrow, and the number of people who can pass through at the same time is up to two.
When the Coalition forces come in and set fire to the mountain, then these people will be trapped and killed, and there will be no escape.
So, Li Xingchen took Sima Zhen and walked more slowly.
When the Combine was about to catch up, quickly ran towards the desperate situation.
The terrain here is steep, and the lieutenants who lead the team are not sure whether to enter it for a while.
But after thinking about it, a Li Xingchen and a seriously injured Wei soldier, what else can they ambush here?
Hundreds of thousands of troops, send half to surround the entire mountain, and send half to vigorously search and arrest, and it will not take a day to catch people.
Thinking of Li Xingchen's crazy killing yesterday, the Persian king gritted his teeth with hatred.
So when he received the news, he laughed with a vengeance.
"This time Li Xingchen is dead, dare to run to that desperate valley, isn't he asking for his own death?"
"Now the valley has been surrounded, and half of the soldiers have gone in to search for it."
The few generals who are still alive have a word to me.
"Li Xingchen is a reckless man who only understands force, but he is actually very stupid, and it will become their burial place."
"Maybe you don't need to send someone in to look for him, you only need to send someone to surround him outside for a few days, and you can starve him to death inside."
At the same time, Li Xingchen shuttled between a forest with Sima Zhen.
Along the way, he kept throwing blocks of fire oil into the withered wood.
Be prepared to wait until the right moment to set it on fire.
Although the amount of oil is not much, it is now a hot summer, and the trees are extremely dry after the day's baking.
It only takes a few places to ignite, and it will spread one by one, and soon the whole valley will be in flames, burning all the combined forces that have entered to find people.
You know, this desperate valley can accommodate up to two people at the same time.
Now nearly 400,000 people are coming in one after another to search for them, and once a fire breaks out, they will panic and rush towards the desperate exit, and there will inevitably be a stampede.
Coupled with the dense smoke, it can stun them even if it doesn't kill them.
Although Li Xingchen didn't say anything about this plan, Sima Zhen could see it and couldn't help shrinking his neck.
When the chaos comes, it will not be difficult for the two of them to escape from the chaos, but the Valley of Desperation will become a hell on earth.
Soon, after the master and servant had finished their work, they found an open space to sit down and eat dry food.
Sima Zhen glanced at Li Xingchen, who had a natural look on his face, and wanted to say a few words, but he didn't know what to say, so he was silent.
"Go over there, over there."
Soon after, the voice of the Combine was heard from afar.
Countless footsteps also came from far and near.
"Haha, Emperor Wei can't escape, and now he is the turtle in the urn."
"There is an order from above, life or death. Whoever catches the Great Wei Emperor first will be promoted to the rank of knight. ”
"Don't rob me, I must kill that dog thief first!"
"Why? Of these soldiers, my strength is the greatest! ”
Countless chattering disputes and ridicule spread among the mountains and forests.
Sima Zhen twisted his eyebrows and looked around vigilantly, for fear that he would be discovered.
Li Xingchen said in a deep voice: "Don't be nervous, you have to stay steady whenever and wherever you are, have you forgotten how I trained you when I was in Lingzhou?" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, it is the minister's fault that the minister forgot your teachings." Sima Zhen sat back in place.
Li Xingchen looked up at the scorching sun.
It's been a few months since the expedition, and Situ Ling hasn't come yet, so it can't be an accident, right? Li Xingchen couldn't help but worry, and at the same time, a trace of irritability rose in his heart.
Not long after his daughter was born, he led his troops into battle.
The child changes day by day, and as a father, he has not been with his daughter for several months, and he feels a little self-blame in his heart.
Thinking back to the little princess, Li Xingchen's heart softened, my baby, for you, I will end this war sooner.
When I go back, I must hug you well.
At the same time, the capital, the imperial palace.
It was getting hotter and hotter, and the little princess was almost three months old, and she was out of swaddling clothes, wearing a silk miniature dress and trousers.
The fat little face is particularly cute.
When I fell asleep, my long eyelashes hung down on my lower eyelids, and when I opened my eyes, I had a pair of big eyes, clear and clear, like the purest and most flawless ice and snow in the world, which made people feel pity.
However, Chu Li's stomach problems are getting worse and worse, and no medicine can suppress her pain, and she lives in tormented pain every day.
Fortunately, her daughter's smile was able to relieve her pain a little.
"Baby, good baby, the queen mother is here."
As soon as the little princess woke up, Chu Li walked over with a pale face, stretched out her trembling fingers, and touched her face lightly.
"Mother, your illness really can't be delayed." The maidservant girl on the side had red eyes.
"Write a letter to the slave and send it to the border. At least let Your Majesty know about your condition. Otherwise, the slave is worried, and the slave is worried.
Speaking of this, the maidservant couldn't bear it any longer, and the surging tears burst out of her eyes, and she was very sad.
Chu Li frowned, "Don't cry." The little guy is very sensitive, and when he sees someone crying for a while, he will cry again. ”
The maidservant forcibly stopped her weeping and wiped away her tears.
"Niangniang, the slave begs you, or let the slave go to the people to seek medical treatment.
These imperial doctors all eat dry food, and they are useless at all. ”
"Don't talk nonsense." Chu Li looked at her with disgust, "Since that's the case, you can go if you want, remember not to force it, the stomach disease of this palace is clear to this palace." ”
