Suddenly, the drums on the city wall shook loudly, this was the drum of the enemy attack, Li Chengde immediately accelerated the speed of dressing, and after dressing, all the soldiers also gathered in the tent.

"It's a small-scale invasion by the enemy, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry, just leave such a small matter to the last general."

Everyone recommended themselves, but the silent Wu Yan on the side seemed a little different, so Li Chengde asked him if he had any better opinions.

Thinking about what Jiuli people had entrusted him before, Wu Yan's eyes flashed with a hint of struggle, but he still said,

"This small-scale attack by the enemy is a good opportunity for His Majesty to personally fight and boost the morale of the army. The last general found that after last night's incident, the enthusiasm of the soldiers had subsided somewhat. ”

"Your Majesty, no, although the enemy army is a small number of people, the risk of fraud cannot be ruled out." A soldier said with some disapproval.

"There is a general by His Majesty's side, and he will definitely protect His Majesty, not to mention that what His Majesty needs most at the moment is military merit?" Wu Yan said.

This sentence can also be regarded as talking about Li Chengde's heart, at that time, the first emperor conquered the sea in the east and crossed the desert in the west, and he had the title of Emperor Wu after a lot of military achievements. And his own personal expedition this time is to be able to achieve the brilliant achievements of the first emperor.

"Your Majesty, it's obvious that Yuan Qi wants to lure you out this time, you can't be fooled." Qiu Shengrong persuaded a little anxiously on the side.

Your Majesty is young and frivolous and doesn't know the changes and secrets on the battlefield, but these courtiers can't push Your Majesty into the fire pit, Qiu Shengrong glanced at Wu Yan coldly, but Wu Yan didn't want to deal with him at all.

"There is no need to discuss this matter again, take my battle robe, I believe in Vice General Wu, General Qiu will stay in Pingyang this time."

Li Chengde's eyes looked deeply at Wu Yan, full of trust, but Wu Yan didn't dare to meet these eyes, so he could only pretend that he was looking at the map to escape.

Drums are beating, flags are hunting, and the gates of the city are open. The horse was impatiently digging the dirt on the ground, Li Chengde sat on the war horse, dressed in dark golden armor, holding a flying harpoon, followed by a number of lieutenants, majestic.

Li Chengde rode the dust and took the lead in chasing after him, and when he reached a jungle, the Yuanqi cavalry suddenly dispersed.

Based on years of experience in the march, there must be fraud in this, and all the lieutenants are persuading Li Chengde to chase after him. And Li Chengde naturally could feel that something was wrong, and immediately turned the horse's head, but it was too late now.

The summer solstice has arrived, and the shrubs in the grass have grown to be more than a meter high, and they are connected in pieces enough to cover hundreds of people, and Li Chengde only brought about a hundred people this time.

But according to the equipment and clothing of these people, it doesn't seem to be the appearance of Yuan Qiren, and the scimitar Khufu looks like the costume of the Jiuli people, Li Chengde was shocked, could it be that Jiuli is also involved?

But before he could think about it, the two sides fought, Tianlan's side was mostly cavalry, and it was difficult to use the advantage of cavalry in this dense jungle. And Jiuli went down with a scimitar, the horse's hooves were cut off, and the people on the horse naturally rolled down.

Within a moment, Tianlan was in a weak position, retreating step by step, and in the end, there were only seventy or eighty people left.

Wu Yan dodged a scimitar attack, and it was a little difficult to parry the siege of several people for a while, just as a scimitar hit his heart, Wu Yan was ready to die, but he didn't expect a dark yellow figure to rush towards him and block this fatal blow for him.

Wu Yan was a little stunned in place, and he didn't know what to do for a while. Li Chengde was a little angry, and he could be in a daze on the battlefield, and after pulling people over, he hurriedly shouted,

"Now is not the time to be in a daze, start your spirits."

At this time, the first general took the only uninjured horse and let Li Chengde ride away, but the Jiuli people seemed to see their intentions, and the offensive became more and more fierce, and finally forced them to the edge of the cliff.

Li Chengde waved the flying harpoon in his hand, the hot sweat on his forehead ran down his cheeks, there were also scars of different sizes on his arms and abdomen, and the hair crown was also lost in the fight, and his hair was not embarrassed.

The two sides began to stalemate, and Li Chengde's side had no way to retreat, and the Jiuli people in front of him were holding scimitars, and their faces were fierce and abnormal.

"Your Majesty, if the last general is not mistaken, there should be a turbulent river under the cliff, and the last general will pull you to jump, and you will take the last general as a cushion." Wu Yan whispered on the side.

His life was saved by Li Chengde, so naturally he should be returned to him, not to mention that he is also the initiator? Wu Yan laughed at himself, maybe his life was not enough to compensate.

Li Chengde didn't want to take Wu Yan's life, not to mention that he would either die on the battlefield or die in Sheji, and he wouldn't escape from the battle anyway, so he refused his proposal without thinking about it.

At this time, the adjutant general on the side couldn't stand it, and only when His Majesty was alive could there be hope, not to mention that if His Majesty died on the battlefield, they would not be able to escape the military law.

The adjutant general gave Wu Yan a look, Wu Yan understood, and almost instantly the deputy general rushed forward, and he was naturally greeted by the enemy's scimitar that was still dripping blood, and Wu Yan also circled behind Li Chengde at the same time, and jumped into the cliff with him.

A mouthful of blood gushed out of the adjutant general's mouth, and his long tasseled hand hung down weakly, and his bronze bell-like eyes stared at the direction of Shangjing, which was where his honor and soul returned.

Qiu Shengrong, who was in the military tent of Pingyang City, paced back and forth, it seemed that two hours had passed, and those Yuan Qi's stragglers should have been exterminated, and the remaining result was something he didn't dare to imagine.

Qiu Shengrong couldn't sit still, so he hurriedly counted the elite soldiers and rushed out of the city, following the mark of the horse's hooves to the jungle, leaving only the smell of blood that had not yet dissipated, as well as the corpses of Tianlan people and Jiuli people.

Almost instantly, Qiu Shengrong recognized that this was the costume of the Jiuli people, he had been guarding the frontier for several years, how could he not recognize the appearance and clothing of the Jiuli people, and his heart sank a little more.

According to the scene of the surrounding battlefield, this was an ambush, Qiu Shengrong felt that the five thunders were thundering for a while, and he was busy asking people to rummage through the corpses one by one, and finally found His Majesty, Qiu Shengrong breathed a sigh of relief.

But after walking out of the jungle, he found that the front was very open, and the body of the deputy general fell on the edge of the cliff, with his eyes open and the boss not blinking.

Qiu Shengrong narrowed the eyes of the adjutant general, and silently walked to the edge of the cliff, bottomless, if His Majesty jumped, I am afraid it would be nine deaths, Qiu Shengrong fell to the ground, and regretted it very much.

But now is not the time for self-reflection, Qiu Shengrong immediately sent people to search at the bottom of the cliff, if he wants to see people alive and die, he will see corpses, but it is not ruled out that Jiuli people have also searched at the bottom of the cliff, and he can only do his best to obey the fate of heaven now.
