Sterling looked at Zichuan Xiu with a smile: "Today, because Ah Xiu is here, the negotiation is much easier." But why do you say that you support Gotha Khan's seizure of the throne?"

Zi Chuanxiu pondered for a moment and asked, "Sterling, have you heard of the twelve armies of the demon race? Have you ever heard of the man Mon Khan?"

"I've heard of this man. I've heard he's quite cunning. ”

"Cunning?" is no longer enough to describe him, he is a perverted monster, scheming and capricious. He sat on the army and fought outside the pass, preserving his strongest strength. After the fall of the Senea, if nothing else, the Mongols will inevitably rise to become the new ruling clan of the Demon Clan. If not, Mon Khan will be more difficult to deal with than Carter. ”

"What do you mean......"

"Divide and conquer. If it weren't for our support, neither Yagomi nor Goda Khan would have been able to fight against Mon Khan. A powerful demon regime is not in the interests of mankind, it is best to let the demon races attack each other, and they can never be unified, so that human beings can have peace and stability. If the Mongols come to power, we will have to prepare for another war against demons in less than twenty years. ”

Sterling looked thoughtful. After a long time, he said, "Ah Xiu, you think very far. However, the top priority is to clean up the Seneans first, if you can't defeat them, everything will be in vain. ”

He walked to the wall and opened a curtain covering the wall, and a large map appeared in front of Shikawa Xiu's eyes. At the zhōngyāng of the map, a large black block was shocking, and Shikawa Shu knew that it represented 400,000 Senean soldiers who were entrenched in hundreds of square kilometers of land centered on Dak.

And in front of the black block, there is a large red dot, which represents the capital of the motherland, dìdū. The capital of the motherland, which had been besieged by millions of demons for four months and could not be understated, has become a symbol of tenacity and sacrifice to the god jīng, a key turning point in the reversal of the national war, and an inviolable holy place. This heroic city has achieved the legendary reputation of the cardamom girl, and the crown prince Zichuan Ning has become famous all over the world and has become the jīng god lamp in the hearts of the whole people.

Stirling's finger moved along the map along the Vanne River, and finally stopped at the red dot in the upper reaches of the Vanne, which was flanked by the city of Dìdū, threatening the Demon Dak, the town that would later be known as the Northwest Battalion, where the Wind and Frost were stationed.

Staring at the red dot for a long time, Sterling said slowly: "'Taking into account the overall situation and ignoring previous suspicions' is easy to say, but what kind of mind and courage it takes to really lend a hand to one's feuding enemy! What is even more rare is that such a great instant decision came from a woman."

Because of her, we were able to avoid a catastrophe and humanity was able to survive the catastrophe. When I fought with her in the northwest, I lost, and I still wanted to fight her again, but now, I am convinced, this woman's mind and courage are beyond my reach.

Ah Xiu, if you are talented in military affairs, you are a genius, and Di Lin and I are also quite confident. However, she alone is the greatest general of our time - no, she is the greatest female xìng of our time. The light of hope for humanity, she deserves it. ”

Shikawa Xiu listened quietly. What appeared in my mind was the tearful eyes under the starlight, and the hoarse cry still echoed in my ears: "If you die in battle, I will definitely avenge you!" At that time, she was so fragile and so sad. An indescribable taste welled up in my heart, like pride, but also like bitterness.

Yes, she is the greatest general of our time, the light of hope for humanity, but she is also my love. Swords and swords, fighting horses. Beloved, we've been separated for a long, long time.

"The Seneaya clan still nominally retains the number of the six armies, but in fact, the most courageous soldiers of the Demon God Emperor have long since died under the walls of Dìdū. The combat power of the demons has dropped very significantly, and in the past, we had to use a human division to resist the attack of a Senea team. But now, a single human division can defeat two demon teams, and in the Battle of Dìdū, the Demon God Emperor lost at least 200,000 troops. The losses of those jīng soldiers could not be compensated for by the recruits recruited from the rear - although they could barely be maintained in quantity, they were already very different in quality.

And now, the Demon God Emperor Company can't maintain its numbers, and I estimate that the Seneya army is less than 350,000. And if the human alliance army is added to the windswept army, it will be more than a million!We have an overall advantage, and the only thing we are worried about is whether the Seneya will bring in new reinforcements from the country......"

"There will be no new reinforcements. Zichuan Xiu said, his voice was not high, but his tone was very affirmative.

Surprised by Shikawa's confidence, Sterling asked, "Why?"

"I have sent a detachment of divisions into the territory of the demons, and ordered them to destroy the war foundation of the demons as much as possible, break the will to fight of the demon people, and destroy the enemy's ability to continue fighting. The task of this army is to make trouble for the demons, so that the demons have no time to take care of themselves in the country, and they have no time to reinforce the main battlefield - as long as they toss around in the hinterland of the demons for a few months, the demon crown prince who stays in the country will have a headache, if he cries and shouts to his father for reinforcements, it will be even more jīngcolor!"

Stirling is also a strategist, and immediately understood the magic of Zichuan Xiu's strategy: the orcs are eyeing the old and young women of the demon tribes, and the entire demon clan is a hostage in Zichuan Xiu's hands. These tens of thousands of troops not only suppressed the Goang and Yakun tribes, but also destroyed the gathering of troops in the rear of the demon clan, which was a clever plan to allocate thousands of catties in four or two.

He smiled and said, "No wonder Goda Khan and Yagomi are so afraid of you, and dare to love their family, all of whom are pinched by you." Remove the two sworn friends of the Goang and the Yakun at once, and you will be the first to win this great victory of the human race. ”

"If the Yakun and Goang really withdraw from the battle, according to your analysis just now, we do have a chance to win. Zichuan Xiu paused, and his face became solemn: "But you still missed someone." ”

"Who?"

"Demon God Emperor Carter. ”

At the mention of this name, even the air was shaking silently, Sterling turned around and looked intently at Zi Chuan Xiu, who didn't look at him, just looked at the black dot on the map that represented Dark: "Senea's army is very strong, Ling Buxu and Yun Qianxue are also excellent generals, but I don't have the slightest fear against them, but only the Demon God Emperor-"

Zi Chuanxiu frowned: "I still don't know how to deal with him." ”

"The Demon God Emperor is really so terrifying? Can you use the tactics of the sea of people to deal with him? I can select five thousand heroes among my subordinates who are not afraid of death or evil to serve as a death squad and use them exclusively against him!"

"Second brother, the level of strength is too far apart, think of the scene where a group of rabbits come to besiege a wolf! This is not an object that can be suppressed by force - the Demon God Emperor entrenched in Dak, he may be more difficult to deal with than all the Senean armies combined. ”

The two Commanders were silent, and only the ticking of the clock could be heard in the room. Victory is in sight, but there is still a huge obstacle in front of us, which at the moment seems almost insurmountable.

After a long time, Sterling stood up. He opened the window gently, and the cold and fresh air of the early morning poured in, and white sè had appeared on the eastern horizon, and dawn had arrived.

"Ah Xiu, you have a reasonable point in thinking about it, there are indeed terrifying characters in the world that are beyond imagination, three hundred years ago, His Royal Highness King Ming, he was able to fight the army with one person. Now I can't be sure if the Demon God Emperor is really as powerful as the legend says. It's an obstacle that we can't get around or dodge. But if we gather an army of 600,000 and retreat because we are afraid of the Demon God Emperor alone, then will we not become the laughing stock of the world?

If victory requires sacrifice and price, let us pay for it. It is possible that we will be defeated by the Demon God Emperor, but our sacrifice will not be in vain. Even if we die on the battlefield, as long as the demons still occupy the land of the human race, then there will inevitably be the next challenger - either His Royal Highness Zichuan Ning, or our eldest brother Di Lin, or the Wind and Frost Princess of the Flowing Wind Family, from our defeat, they can learn a lesson and finally find a way to destroy that demon!

In the same way, I firmly believe that evil cannot defeat good, and that the flow of history cannot be reversed by one person. Demon God Emperor Carter, how terrible are you? Let me Sterling understand it!"

Infected by Stirling's impassioned momentum and strong confidence, Shikawa Xiu's heart was surging with the same heart. He stood in front of the window, standing side by side with Sterling. In the field of vision of the two young generals, a round of fiery morning sun was rising, and ten thousand rays of light reflected the mountains and rivers, illuminating the faces of the two young men red.

The ferries sailed down the river from the north around the corner of the Vanne, and from time to time the warships made rapid orbital maneuvers to avoid the huge boulders that whizzed in the air from time to time. Piece by piece, the stones fell into the water, causing huge waves.

When a stone struck, the soldiers let out a terrifying cry: "Ah!" Less than five meters from the ship's string, a huge stone fell into the water, and the splash caused by the water poured the officers and men at the bow of the ship on their heads.

"Marshal, it's too dangerous on deck, please go to the cabin!"

Flowing Wind and Frost were observing the catapult position on the shore, placed in the fog, and there was only a hazy line left in the distance. When the roaring boulder broke through the dense fog and appeared, you could see the faint trails that cut through the dense fog.

"With such a dense stone-throwing attack, the demons have learned smartly, and the stone-throwing technology has improved. How far is it from dìdū?"

"About ten miles away. ”

As if to annotate Ji Wendi's words, the river turned a corner, the river suddenly opened up and was stable, and the stones no longer shè. The soldiers on the ship cheered in unison, and the wind and frost breathed a long sigh of relief.

"After that sandwich road, the front is safe!"

Minghui led Yoyo out of the cabin, and when the boulders were flying all over the sky just now, he had been hiding in the cabin and not coming out.

"Your Highness, you are so adventurous. The sky is full of rocks, and you dare to stand on the deck. ”

"Commander, I'm used to it, it's better to face it head-on than to dodge. Flowing Wind and Frost smiled, she stood up, her slender and delicate body was tall and handsome. The sunset of dusk hangs down at the end of the Vanne. Her clear gaze was fixed on the end of the winding waves of the river, the hair on her forehead fluttering in the breeze, and an aura of wisdom enveloped her.

Looking at her, Minghui sighed in his heart. The person in front of him was once the biggest and strongest enemy in the first half of his life, and countless times, he gritted his teeth and cursed to crush her to pieces. But right now, she is her most reliable ally and the strongest savior of the Zichuan family. After getting along with the wind and frost for a long time, he really felt the charm of the woman in front of him. Not only as an invincible general, but as a simple person, she is honest, sincere, and sincere, her purity is like crystal, and she has an incomparable charm, which can make her subordinates unconsciously moved by her, and do not hesitate to go to the soup and fire.

The fleet sailed down the river, and after half an hour, the huge shadow of the city was pressed down like a mountain. Everyone stood at the bow of the ship, and involuntarily looked up at the huge city wall, feeling a great pressure.

Liu Fengshuang sighed: "Dìdū is known as the number one giant city in the mainland, and it really lives up to its name. ”

Minghui smiled reservedly and said, "You can handle it, Marshal, this is the first time you have come to us, right?"

Liufeng Shuang shook his head and smiled silently. Minghui was surprised, but he didn't know that two years ago, he had sneaked into dìdū in person many times.

The flotilla sailed close to the riverbank, and could see the undulating line of positions and forts, from which the wounded were being carried out on stretchers, and the stretcher line was long with no end in sight. Seeing the arrival of the flotilla, the soldiers on the shore came out of their positions one after another and stood on the embankment to watch. Seeing the golden maple leaf flag above the fleet, the onlookers showed a shocked look, and the shouts spread across the river bank like the wind:

"The Flowing Wind Army! The Flowing Wind Army's army has arrived!"

The soldiers of the Liufeng family on the deck and the soldiers of the Zichuan family on the shore looked at each other from a distance, so close that they could see each other's faces clearly.

These are the people who have survived the brutal battle, and the eyes of the people in front of them are grim, and the blackened faces still have tears and dirt stains. There were still some children in the crowd, who couldn't cry anymore, but just stretched out their little hands towards the river.

Looking at the scene in front of him, the wind and frost were silent, his heart shrunk, and something spicy came to his heart.

It was the emaciated and ragged people in front of them, who withstood the Demon God Emperor's most sharp army and smashed the Demon God Emperor's arrogant plan to destroy the human race in half a year. Besieged and isolated, they held out for a full four months, dragging down the six sharpest legions of the Demon God Emperor. Their sacrifice and suffering have bought time and salvation for humanity.

Facing the soldiers and civilians on the shore, Liu Fengshuang slowly raised his hand in salute. Then, her subordinate officers raised their hands and saluted. Immediately after, Minghui and his subordinates also saluted.

The river flowed quietly, and the soldiers on the side of the boat remained motionless, as solemn as a group of statues. Watching them, the people on the shore were silent. There was no need for explanation, no need for words, and in that moment of solidification, countless thoughts communicated in that gaze. A thought that transcends borders and hatred is quietly communicated.

As human beings, we share weal and beyond.

The fleet disembarked at the East Shore Pier, near the east gate of Dìdū. The troop carrier docked first, and the Liufeng soldiers landed and arranged a jǐng cordon on the shore. Someone took a plank and put it on the side of the boat and the dock, and jumped off the side of the boat lightly. Immediately afterwards, Minghui also got off the boat. At the dock, a group of soldiers who had been waiting there for a long time walked briskly towards them.

"His Highness the Wind and Frost?"

"I am, may I ask your Excellency?"

The leading soldier was of medium height, with a short face and short eyebrows, his eyes were grim and tired, the wrinkles on his forehead were as obvious as if they had been cut by a knife, his face was covered with dust and black powder, his hair was gray, and the bloodshot red eyes revealed his exhaustion, and the uniform on his body was so dirty that he couldn't see it clearly. If it weren't for the three silver stars on his shoulders, Flowing Wind and Frost would have thought of him as one of those country peasants who served as miscellaneous servants in the army.

He saluted to Liufeng Shuang: "In the lower zhōngyāng army, the deputy commander of Qin Lu." His Royal Highness came from thousands of miles to help, selfless kindness, and the army and people felt deeply virtuous. ”

Liufeng Shuang returned the salute: "General Qin Lu, I have admired the name for a long time." Your army is a lonely city to hold on to the millions of demon divisions, and its fortitude, bravery and self-sacrifice are exemplary soldiers, and we admire them very much. ”

"Your Highness has won the prize. Qin Lu smiled faintly, with an indescribable sadness in his smile.

He turned to Minghui and saluted, "Lord Minghui, you are here too." ”

"Qin Lu, are you really Qin Lu?" Minghui stood in place in disbelief, unable to believe his eyes: "God! I can't even recognize you! How did you become like this, it seems that you have suddenly aged ten years old!"

"I thought I was thirty years old. ”

Qin Lu said lightly, with the kind of open-mindedness unique to people who have penetrated life and death.

The two sides introduced their respective entourage, and Ji Wendi, Ying Mulan and others also stepped forward to meet with the officers and briefly introduced themselves. In front of the soldiers of the Zichuan family, who were described as dry and emaciated, the most sharp crusader generals of the Liufeng family felt an invisible shock. The sluggish and tired expressions of the people in front of them, and the almost numb eyes, were silently telling everyone what kind of suffering, blood and tears they had experienced.

After the attachés of the two sides finished introducing, they didn't hear the two names they were most interested in, so they asked: "What about His Royal Highness Zichuan Ning and Inspector General Dilin? ”

Qin Lu replied: "His Royal Highness Ning and Lord Di Lin are both in the command headquarters, and the suburbs have reported that the demon clan has been defeated, and they must sit in command and can't get out." I couldn't come to welcome you in person, and they asked me to apologize to Your Highness. ”

Liu Fengshuang said lightly: "The war is important, don't care about those false courtesies." Lord Qin Lu, please lead the way for us. ”

"Yes. We have prepared a carriage, the etiquette is simple, please don't be surprised. ”

The group got into a carriage parked at the edge of the pier and drove along the side of the city wall to the city.

The rì head is slanted to the west, and there is a deathly silence. The streets of dìdū - there are no more streets in zài. As far as the eye could see, all that was left of the houses on either side were a few black, charred walls, and the chimneys were crooked. The doors and windows were gone, the roofs had collapsed, not a single green branch was visible from the blackened trees, and the blackened ruins of bricks and tiles were piled up like a hill, and the wagons zigzagged through the gaps between the great rubbish heaps.

Looking at the scene in front of him, no one made a sound.

I think of the dìdū of two years ago, and I think of the quiet and beautiful zhōngyāng street. Flowing Wind and Frost muttered, "It's heartbreaking. ”

Ji Wendi couldn't help but say loudly: "It's really terrible. The ancient capital of civilization of 300 years was destroyed in this way. ”

Qin Lu looked out of the window indifferently, completely indifferent to the scene outside the window. He closed his eyes, and after a while, a rhythmic snoring came from his nose, and he was already asleep.

Liu Fengshuang and his attachés were deeply shocked: "The deputy commander-in-chief of the dìdū defense, he is tired like this!"

Originally, Zi Chuanning and Di Lin were unable to greet them in person, and they still felt a lot of guilt in their hearts. But seeing that Qin Lu was tired like this, she began to have some preliminary understanding of Dìdū's life. In this war-torn city, on the front line of the fight against the demons, the etiquette and demeanor that the nobles were used to in the past are now all superfluous. Here, there is only one thing that matters, and that is to live desperately. In order to survive this lowest goal, one has to devote all oneself to one's deity and simply does not have the strength to think about anything else.

Walk along huge mountains of garbage, through one positional defense after another. The soldiers on the defence sat lazily or lay on the ground, and they did not even raise their eyelids at the long line of carriages that drove by. What the soldiers exude is a kind of exhaustion and apathy that goes deep into the bone marrow.

Looking at those crooked bodies, the desperate eyes, the wind and frost showed pity. In their eyes, there is no hope, no tomorrow, only despair, dark despair. Staying in this state for a long time, their jīng god has been distorted, and even if they are lucky enough to survive the war, they will eventually go crazy.

The car drove past the scorched earth and ruins and into the western side of dìdū. In this area, there are still relatively intact buildings and streets, and people can also walk around, most of them are soldiers.

The headquarters of the dìdū defense was set up in a private house with no signs. The group passed the inspection of the guards and entered the door. The light in the room was dim, several officers gathered around a large table to discuss, and the generals with stars on their shoulders came in and out with loud voices:

"Pay attention to the movements of the Guards Brigade, this is a new force...... The Guards Brigade is deployed there, which means where the Demon God Emperor is going to do it......"

"Reinforcements are coming slowly, not keeping up with the speed we are wearing...... The total number of the Fifth Division was less than 500 men, less than a full brigade...... Our division was completely crippled, and there were less than two hundred infantry left......"

A black-clad "female" officer stood up, a head taller than the wind and frost. At this time, he spoke—and then he realized that there was a man in front of him, but he was too handsome to misunderstand—and his voice was very clear: "Du Bo, I will convey to you the order of His Highness Ning and me: immediately attack the fourth position of the barricade after Rì, and before dawn, recapture the position and hold it until reinforcements arrive—understand?"

The officer standing in front of him had a pale face, but he replied very neatly: "Yes, my lord." ”

"Then go down and prepare! Remember, attack as soon as it gets dark!"

Before going out, the officer turned around and asked, "My lord, I heard that officers who died in battle can be posthumously promoted to the next level?"

"I can give you a special discount, posthumously recognize that you will be promoted to two levels and directly promoted to deputy commander!"

Dub smiled wryly and turned out the door of the headquarters.

Only then did the black-clothed officer turn around and face up to the storm that had entered the house.

He has a long figure, wears a black sè military judge's uniform, fair skin, light eyebrows, watery eyes, and is so beautiful that even the wind and frost are jealous, but unlike Zichuan Xiu, his handsomeness gives people a sense of yīn softness. The shining Venus epaulettes on this person's shoulder told everyone his identity: a person who wore a military judge's uniform and had the status of a commander, there was no second one in the Zichuan family.

Looking at Di Lin, Liu Fengshuang felt that the other party seemed to be very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it. Immediately, she felt that this idea was ridiculous: the other party was the chief inspector of the Zichuan family, such an important person, if she had seen it, it was impossible not to remember it.

Seeing Liufeng Shuang's red uniform, Di Lin glanced at the epaulettes on Liufeng Shuang's shoulders and asked, "Marshal Liufeng?"

Liu Fengshuang raised his eyebrows: "Lord Dilin?"

"Exactly. Your Excellency, welcome to this war-torn city. The conditions are poor and sluggish. ”

The two shook hands gently, and the wind and frost only felt that the other party's hands were cold. She shuddered, and withdrew her hand silently. Both of them were silent, silently looking at each other.

In the past few days, the senior military and political officials of the Zichuan family have seen a lot, whether it is Minghui, Luo Minghai, even the old Zichuan Shenxing is no exception, the moment they saw themselves, their eyes involuntarily lit up - it had nothing to do with it, it was the natural reaction of a man when he encountered a beautiful other. Although they can hide it well, out of the sensitivity of the female xìng, the wind and frost capture the hot changes in the other party's eyes at that moment.

The only exception is Dillin. From beginning to end, he looked at himself with only coldness in his eyes. In the eyes of this person, he is simply just an untrustworthy ally. As for his own beauty, to the person in front of him, it is something that does not exist.

Looking at Di Lin, Liu Fengshuang secretly came to a conclusion: this is a cruel and ruthless person, he has no human feelings at all, and the whole person is made of ice cubes.

At this moment, a female officer wearing a military cap approached, and she took off her hat. Suddenly, a smooth silky black hair sprinkled down like a waterfall, and the scattered black hair that hung down like a sea of silk covered half of her face, and the female officer hurriedly combed it.

Qin Lu introduced: "This is the crown prince of our country, Miss Zi Chuanning. ”

Regardless of the fact that her hair was not neatly combed, Zichuan Ning Qianqian made a salute and said softly: "Your Highness Liufeng, you have come to the rescue thousands of miles away, this kindness and virtue, the Zichuan family will not forget." No matter what happens in the future, you will always be the most reliable friend of our Zichuan family. ”

"Your Highness Ning, you are too polite. As human beings, it is our duty to help each other. ”

According to the official history, the first meeting between the two beauties, known as the two most famous beauties of the Golden Age, was at dusk on October 784, at the base camp behind dìdū. Of course, the unpleasant encounter between the two in the middle of the night in 781 was not only unknown to the world, but also Zi Chuanning, one of the parties involved, was also ignorant.

Both women were dressed in military uniforms, and they looked at each other.

Liu Fengshuang is tall, with silky eyelashes, shadowy eyes, eyes as deep as dark gems, fair melon seed face, slightly upturned delicate nose, facial features are as beautiful as jīng carved out, the straight neck, The small head shows her upright figure even more, elegant temperament, graceful and noble bearing, calm appearance, confidence and atmosphere revealed in her gestures, and a bright red tweed military uniform makes her skin as white as snow, adding a vigorous heroic spirit to her.

The officers of the Zichuan family present were all shocked by the beauty of this princess of the Liufeng family, and when she looked around, no man dared to make eye contact with her. She is like a bright red rose blooming in this battlefield, dazzling.

The staff officers of the Dìdūzhōngyāng army described her as follows: "It was as if a sun suddenly rose in the room, and we didn't dare to look at it." will burn her eyes with her beauty. ”

Because she didn't know about Liufengshuang's visit in advance, Zi Chuanning didn't make any preparations, so what appeared in front of the Liufeng soldiers was such a girl: her hair was messy and she was hurriedly tidying up. She didn't wear makeup, she didn't wear lipstick, her face was a little pale, and her eyes were red and swollen from staying up late. Faced with the wind and frost of Liguang Sishè, she bowed her head in shame.

But even so, the beauty of the girl still can't be hidden. With slightly frowning eyebrows, bright and charming big eyes, and a sharp melon seed face, she looks so moving with a smile. Despite her untidy appearance, tired and haggard, the naturally beautiful Zi Chuanning still exudes a touching charm. Different from the beautiful and dazzling wind and frost, she has another kind of beauty, quiet, gentle, weak, touching, and pitiful.

When they think of the current situation at that time, people can't help but be amazed that this Qianqian woman, with her weak and slender shoulders, has such tenacity and perseverance! At the most critical moment, she withstood the terrible military pressure of the demon clan on dìdū, and withstood six armies, nearly 600,000 demon jīng sharp soldiers! "Take dìdū in one month!" The arrogant declaration of the invincible Demon God Emperor and the generals under his command came to naught in front of the woman in front of him, and the green sè madness cháo, which was enough to sweep the entire continent, stopped in front of the weak woman in front of him, which cannot but be said to be an amazing miracle. In the area occupied by the demon clan, the saying "His Royal Highness Zichuan Ning has been bestowed by heaven on the holy daughter of the Zichuan family!" has risen to the top, and the prestige of this originally unknown heir of the Zichuan family has been pushed to the peak.

Of course, Liu Fengshuang knew that Zi Chuanning was not a saint. This is just an ordinary girl, she loves to cry, laugh, eat snacks, like shopping, love to dream, love to fantasize, have a beloved, will also be jealous, and sometimes shaken. It is the heavy responsibility that is pressed on her, forcing an innocent girl to mature quickly and be as strong as iron.

Flowing Wind and Frost smiled knowingly: she seemed to see herself ten years ago.

Looking at her quietly, the figure of another person appeared in front of her eyes, and this person was thousands of miles away. In front of him is the woman he once loved passionately and defended with his life. On that snowy night, he drew his sword to his chest, blocking himself, blocking the master of the Flowing Wind Family, just for the sake of the woman in front of him. He did not hesitate to go to the soup and fire. In his twenty-three-year-old life, the woman in front of him had occupied most of his emotions.

Liufeng Shuang was looking at Zi Chuanning, and everyone was also looking at Liufeng Shuang. Everyone noticed that when looking at Zi Chuanning, there was something very strange in Liufengshuang's eyes: it seemed to be hostile, it seemed to be envious, and it seemed to be concerned - when a beautiful woman met the same person who could match her in appearance, her eyes, expression, and movements were very reserved, and that subtle feeling was not something that the male xìng who was not present could understand.

Qin Lu coughed dryly: "Your Highness Liufeng, if it is convenient, please allow the lower official to give you an introduction to the battle situation." ”

Retracting his gaze at Zi Chuanning, Liu Fengshuang said lightly, "Okay." ”

Everyone sat down one after another, gathered around the large table in the middle of the room, and Qin Lu pointed to the military map on the wall:

"On the eleventh day of September, the enemy's Fifth Army, taking over from the Second Army, occupied the Dìdū station on the southeast side of the city, and deployed its forces against us in the direction of the Vic Orchard on the outskirts of the city. At present, there are 85 regiments of the other side, including eight regiments of the Guards Brigade. Among the front-line troops, there are 75 teams belonging to the Senea ethnic group. According to the estimation of the Dìdū General Staff, the enemy still has at least twenty to thirty regiments in the rear as a general strategic reserve, not including the Royal Guards Brigade directly under the Demon God Emperor.

To the southeast, the field groups and infantry groups of the enemy's Fifth Army carried out an offensive in front of the 6th and 7th Divisions of our Zhōngyāng Army. Some enemy units had already broken through to the residential areas of Dìdū Dongcheng, and the defensive forces of the 6th Division had been squeezed by the opposing side's powerful arc formation from the front and flanks to the Vagne. ”

Qin Lu paused: "In addition, there is good news for everyone." The troops of our Southeastern Army have joined forces with the Far Eastern troops led by Hide-sama Shikawa at Venari. Lord Xiuchuan brought with him the powerful orc army in the Far East, which strengthened our army's field combat capabilities and made us more confident in the decisive battle. ”

Hearing Zi Chuanxiu's name, Liufeng Shuang's hand trembled slightly. She quietly glanced at Zi Chuanning and found that the latter did not react, obviously knowing the news for a long time.

"Lord Stirling has a letter from the flying pigeon, and the general attack on the demons will begin in the early morning of October 15. Correspondingly, the Dìdū Military Region will also launch a corresponding auxiliary offensive to contain the forces of the Demon Clan and respond to the general offensive of the Southeast Army......"

The meeting lasted about two hours, mainly to discuss how the Northwest Coalition Army and the Dìdū Army could cooperate in the upcoming counteroffensive in the future, trying to attract the forces of the Demon Clan, and preparing for the offensive of Stirling and Shikawa Xiu against Dak.

It was already dark, and someone brought in dinner. Qin Lu then announced that the meeting would be suspended for the time being, and that it would start again after dinner. He said apologetically: "Your Highness Liufeng, the conditions of the war are poor, and I can't bring out anything good to entertain you, so I am wronged." After the demons are defeated, we invite you to taste the flavor and food of dìdū. ”

Look at the wind and frost, the meals are ordinary home-cooked dishes, there are vegetables and meat, and they are rare on the battlefield, but they are not as bad as Qin Lu said. She smiled: "Lord Qin Lu, I am also a soldier, haven't I eaten anything?" ”

Everyone politely exchanged a few pleasantries. At this moment, a black-clothed officer of the Supervision Department pushed the door in, walked up to Di Lin's side, leaned over and whispered a few words, and handed a note to Di Lin.

Di Lin glanced at it, nodded and said, "Got it, you go down." ”

Liufeng Shuang's ears are sensitive, and he vaguely heard the words "Heqiu" and "Lin Family". Her heart moved: "Inspector General, what happened, has there been any change in the war situation?"

Di Lin looked at the wind and frost, and said lightly: "This matter has nothing to do with the war situation, but maybe it is also very important." Originally, I didn't want to ruin everyone's appetite and wanted to talk about it after eating, but since His Highness asked, I will say it in advance: I reported at the intelligence station in Heqiu that there may have been a coup d'état in the Lin family last week. ”

"Coup, can't it!" several voices said at once.

Di Lin asked rhetorically: "Is heart disease contagious?"

Liu Fengshuang was stunned for a moment, and she frowned slightly: "As far as I know, no." ”

"If it's not a coup d'état, it's that the Lin family has a special heart disease, which is specially transmitted to high-ranking officers. The Presbyterian Church of Riverhill announced that eleven generals of the navy and the army, who were in the prime of life, had suffered a myocardial infarction on the same day, and died at the same time. ”

The seat was shocked, and there was silence, only Di Lin was heard reading the information aloud: "The dead include: Vice Admiral Lin He, commander of the Heqiu garrison, Rear Admiral Lin Xin, director of the intelligence bureau of the Heqiu General Staff, Admiral Lin Yunfei, commander of the First Detachment of the Navy, Vice Admiral Jiang Huai, deputy commander of the First Detachment of the Navy, Vice Admiral Lin Qing, deputy commander of the Jiaxi Detachment of the Navy, and Rear Admiral Wu Hong, chief of staff of the Heqiu Jǐng Reserve Command......"

As if it was electrified, the whole person was shocked. She stood up: "Lord Dilin, is the news accurate?"

"The news was announced by the Lin Patriarchal Association, and it shouldn't be wrong. ”

Noticing that Liufengshuang's face suddenly turned pale, Qin Lu asked, "Your Highness Liufeng, do you look uncomfortable?"

"Nothing, just a little tired. ”

Flowing Wind and Frost held his chin and covered his face with both hands to hide his pale face. She didn't listen to what the crowd said next. My thoughts were confused, and I had the same image in my mind repeatedly: a handsome, proud young man, covered in snow, standing upright on the corner of the street, watching himself and others ride away, his tearful face......

"Last question, have you really loved me?"

Liufengshuang's eyes gradually blurred, although she couldn't accept his feelings, but she couldn't help but be moved by his uncomplaining and unrepentant infatuation without asking for anything in return. She always felt guilty about him.

No one expected that the slightly crying voice was still in the ears, and a farewell in the snow had become an eternal secret.

That proud and stubborn youth, full of green chūn vitality and confidence. He was impulsive like a fire, and he came and went like a gust of wind. How could she not accept the news that such a young man would die of a heart attack?
