"It looks like a sandstorm!" Cheng Daliang pointed to the tornado that was speeding towards here in the distance, and as he spoke, the strong wind wrapped in dust blew into his nose and mouth.

Two hundred horses also began to restlessly try to break free from their shackles.

"Quick, everybody, check that the rope of the horse is secure." Shen Xinyue raised her hand to cover the wind and sand, and shouted loudly with all her might.

At this time, it was obviously too late to run again, and there was no place to take refuge in an emergency, so the carriage could only be unloaded from the horse, and then stood on the sand and tied it firmly with a rope to separate a protective wall.

In the face of the approaching sandstorm, two hundred horses, neighing and struggling, could only be drowned in the yellow sand.

I don't know how long it took, the surroundings returned to calm, and the sand that Shen Xinyue, Yang Chuan and the others had fallen on climbed out from behind the car board.

The group began to look around for horses.

Finally, they spotted a handful of horses wandering around in a col in the distance.

Two more batches were found in another location.

Thankfully, the horses were not lost because they had been tethered with ropes before.

The sky gradually turned white, and the group also embarked on the way back again.

At this moment, there was bad news from Dayuan, the old general Zhou Guangqing died in battle, and without a general, the Dayuan army became an ownerless army, and it was defeated and retreated.

Beidi Tieqi rushed forward bravely, broke through Huyang Pass, and captured two cities in a row.

Originally, it was a helpless move to send Zhou Guangqing as the commander-in-chief, but now that the people have died in battle, Dayuan has no more available generals.

Just when Li Yuansheng was at a loss, Li Jingchen, who was closest to Huyang Pass, took the initiative to ask Ying and personally led the troops to the battle.

As a last resort, Li Yuansheng could only give an order to agree.

The prince came in person, and the morale of the army soared, and the Beidi army was forced to go further for a while.

Li Yuansheng and the hearts of the officials were finally able to let go a little.

However, it didn't take long for them to breathe, and the news that followed lifted everyone's hearts again.

There was a traitor in the Zhenxi army, and when Lu Zhong was fighting against the enemy, he was attacked by the other party, and his whereabouts are still unknown, and his life and death are unknown.

……

After more than a month of travel, she finally managed to bring all the horses back without any danger.

But only two days after returning to the village, he received the news that Lu Chong was seriously injured and disappeared, and Shen Xinyue couldn't sit still.

"It's only been two days since you came back, and you're going to Quyang again?" Yang Chuan listened to her words and sat on the chair next to the table: "I'll tell you, I don't agree." ”

"Big brother, Lu Chong's life and death are still uncertain, I have to go."

"What are you going to do here? King Chen has also gone to war, who cares if he leaves this mine? ”

"It's not Captain Liu, the deputy general of King Chen, no matter how bad it is, there are still you."

Yang Chuan glanced at her: "Actually, you prepared those horses for the surname Lu, right?" ”

In order to reduce the expenditure of the army, not only was the number of people reduced, but even the expenses that should be in the army were greatly reduced.

Not to mention the war horses that cost a lot more money to raise.

There was not even a decent light cavalry in the barracks.

Therefore, for the sake of Lu Chong, Shen Xinyue deliberately took a dangerous trip to Beidi alone, just to exchange these two hundred precious war horses for him.

"You know it all."

Yang Chuan snorted: "I'm not blind or stupid. ”

"Lu Zhong is in difficulty, and I don't feel at ease if I don't go. No matter what, I want to see people in life and corpses in death. ”

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Yang Chuan got up and walked outside.

"Big brother, where are you going?"

"Can I watch you go alone? Naturally, I also went to pack up my things, and called all my brothers by the way, and I couldn't call more people when I was looking for someone. Don't worry, Lu Chong's kid will be lucky when he sees it, and he will definitely be fine. ”

Looking at his figure walking away, the corners of Shen Xinyue's mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile.

In addition to leaving Zhou Dunzi and Cheng Xiaoliang a few brothers in the village, Yang Chuan soon counted forty people, including Lu Chai sticks.

And at this moment, Shen Xinyue also packed the things she wanted to bring.

The group rode wild overnight and arrived in Quyang in only seven days.

When Shen Xinyue arrived at the barracks, Chang Ping and Chang An were having a fierce quarrel with the deputy general in the camp tent.

"The young master's life and death are uncertain now, if you don't immediately send more people to find it, Wang Mingqing, what kind of heart do you have?"

"Seeing that the war is imminent, there is no room to take lightly, and I am doing this for the sake of the safety of the soldiers!"

Chang Ping: "Joke, who doesn't know that you were a fireman at the beginning, if it weren't for the young master's exceptional promotion, you Wang Mingqing would be where you are today?" ”

As the saying goes, you don't hit people in the face, and you don't expose people, his ruthless words immediately angered Wang Mingqing, and he slapped the table and shouted: "Captain Chang, don't forget what capacity you are talking to me now, and now I will replace the general's commander." If you're being vexatious, don't blame me for being rude to you. ”

"I'm going to see how you're being rude to me today." Chang Ping was so angry that he pulled out the saber at his waist and wanted to compete with Wang Mingqing.

Just when the two were tense, a soldier suddenly came outside to report, saying that Shen Xinyue was coming.

"I'll clean you up when I come back." Chang Ping dropped a sentence and hurriedly went outside the tent to greet people.

Chang An followed closely behind.

Another adjutant general, Sun Kui, gave the soldiers behind him a look, watched the people go out, and then said, "Are we still acting according to the plan left by the previous general?" ”

Wang Mingqing raised his head, and all the people present carefully examined it, and then said: "The general's life and death are uncertain so far, all because there are traitors in the army, and someone secretly reports to the enemy, so the last action was predicted by the enemy in advance." ”

Sun Kui hurriedly said: "Vice General Wang, do you suspect that the traitor is among us?" I have followed the general for so many years, if I knew who it was, Lao Tzu would have to break his neck. ”

"What does Vice General Sun mean by this? Could it be that you are suspicious of the two of us? Although we didn't follow General Lu Chong, we have also followed General Lu Qi for many years, how could we do something like betraying the Lord to seek glory? ”

"That's not for sure. Knowing people and faces but not hearts, who knows what you have done behind your backs. ”

"Alright, everyone stop arguing, and for the sake of caution, I will tell everyone about my decision before I act tonight, so that someone will leak the news to the enemy in advance."

Outside, Chang Ping and Chang An saw Shen Xinyue coming, and their eyes were slightly red.

Chang Ping said: "At this time, the only one who can really care about the young master is Miss Shen. ”

Shen Xinyue looked at the situation of the two of them, and sighed in her heart.

During this time, the two of them were anxious because of Lu Chong's affairs, their eye sockets were sunken, their beards were unkempt, and they were obviously a lot haggard.

She tried to comfort herself along the way, maybe things were not as serious as she thought, but now it seems that everything is true.

"What the hell is going on, why did your young master disappear?"
