Chapter 18: The West Closure City
"Report! The general has urgent news! ”
After leaving the tower, the soldier went straight to a barracks in the city, which was the general's camp, where the general who led them rested.
Hearing the soldier's shout, a woman in armor who was analyzing the layout sitting in the room at this time was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Enter!" ”
This person is Liu Xuping's target, the person he wants to protect, Chen Xue.
Now it is the time when Qin and Chu are fighting, and she can be described as sleepless day and night during this time, not only to take care of the people in the city, but also to analyze the battle situation in time and prepare for war at all times.
As soon as the soldier came in, he didn't talk nonsense, and arched his hand: "General! There was a carriage galloping outside the city, according to Commander Bai's observation, that person should not be an ordinary person, so he came to report it, and hoped that the general would give an order! ”
Hearing this, Chen Xue frowned slightly, in this situation, there is a possibility of war at any time, who is running over at this time, whether it is someone from the Chu State side or not, it may become a fuse, making the soldiers of the two countries go to war.
If it did, it would be a massacre, with heavy casualties on both sides.
What's more, there are still a lot of people in her city who are unwilling to move out of their homeland, and if she wins, it will be good that it will not harm the people. Once defeated, she can't take care of the people, she is only afraid that she has died on the battlefield.
"Take me to see it!" With that, Chen Xue cleaned up the map on the table and left with the soldiers.
……
At this time, Liu Xuping didn't know that he had just attracted attention, and he was constantly observing the surrounding terrain, he was indeed not afraid of mortals, but if hundreds or thousands of people attacked and killed, it would also be a lot of pressure, and when he slaughtered one side, he would definitely become the target of the collective siege of the monks of the two countries.
"What are you afraid of! Relying on the flesh and blood puppet of the blood demon, plus the countless soldiers around here, let's slaughter this place, let's just say that the soldiers of the two countries killed it, and at that time, the foundation and below will not be your opponent. ”
The demon cultivators instigated him to devour the creatures around him.
"Let's talk about it later, if they die in battle, I will refine them, and if they are still alive, I will not slaughter them." Liu Xuping didn't want to be besieged and killed by the monks of the two countries.
At this time, he raised his head and saw the city tower that was getting closer and closer, only to see the above three big characters on it: "Xifeng City".
"Xifeng City, I will stay here for the next year." Glancing at the plaque on the city tower, Liu Xuping continued to look up.
I saw that on the top of the city tower, there were several soldiers in armor standing at this moment, all staring at him closely.
"Looks like I'm not here at the right time."
Realizing that the situation might be wrong, Liu Xuping sighed, he really didn't expect that he would be taken care of like this when he first came, fortunately no one raised his bow and arrow, otherwise it would be over.
What he didn't know was that someone actually wanted to lift it, but was stopped by Chen Xue, who happened to be in the hurry.
"Now that the situation is on the verge of breaking out, don't be impulsive, look at the form of love." Chen Xue said and asked the soldiers to put down their weapons.
The person outside, she doesn't care, it's not a big deal to die if she dies, but the people in this city, she needs to be protected, and she can't make the whole city responsible for her actions because of her own impulse, that's not what she, a general, should do.
Looking down, Chen Xue was slightly stunned, the person in the carriage, she felt very familiar, but she just didn't know who it was.
"Could it be that the envoy of the State of Chu is coming?" She thinks it's possible, she has seen too many envoys, and some of them have long forgotten their appearance because of their mentality at the time.
"If the gates of the city are not opened, send someone out to inquire what the situation is." Chen Xue waved her hand and let the soldiers behind her deal with it. I don't know the purpose of the other party, so I can only send someone to probe the mouth first.
The city gate opened, and Liu Xuping saw four armor soldiers coming out of the city gate.
"Slow down, don't get into conflict." Liu Xuping said to the Wangshan Daoist who was riding a horse in front.
Hearing this, the people of Wangshan Dao were obedient and obedient, which slowed down the speed of the carriage a lot.
As the two slowly approached, the four armorers looked at the two with vigilant eyes, and they looked like they would start fighting directly without saying a word.
Liu Xuping jumped down from the carriage, and when the people of Wangshan Dao saw this, they also got down from the carriage and found Liu Xuping's side.
"Who's coming?" A soldier asked in a loud voice.
Liu Xuping didn't talk nonsense, and directly showed a golden jade pendant, threw it to the soldier, and said lightly: "Please ask if your general knows him, and he will say that the old man is here." ”
The soldier took it, glanced at the jade pendant, and then carefully glanced at Liu Xuping and Wangshan Daoren, and then entered the city alone, letting the remaining three continue to take care of the two of them.
The soldier recognized it as General Chen's token, but he couldn't determine whether it was true or not, so he had to leave it to the general to make a judgment.
When he went up to the castle tower, he reported: "General, the young man said that the old man had come and gave this to the general to see." With that, he handed the jade pendant over.
Chen Xue was stunned for a moment, just thinking in her heart that some old man would come here, and the moment she saw the jade pendant, she suddenly remembered the young man she saw in Tianluo City, who might not be a mortal.
"It turned out to be him, no wonder it felt familiar." Chen Xue knew it in her heart, and immediately took the jade pendant, and went down to the city tower to greet her in person, not to mention what the other party came here to do, just this jade pendant, she was worth a trip.
The city gate opened, and Chen Xue saw that it was indeed the young man, so he walked forward.
Some soldiers wanted to stop them, but she waved their hands to signal that they were okay.
"I've seen General Chen!"
Liu Xuping and the people of Wangshan Dao arched their hands at Chen Xue in unison.
"Young man, this is not the place where you should come, even if you take my jade pendant, you shouldn't come here, at least not at this time, since you know that I am a general, what is the so-called thing about coming here? You don't have to go to me. ”
Chen Xue returned the salute, and then asked.
Hearing this, Liu Xuping didn't say anything, but took out a letter from his pocket and handed it over.
Chen Xue took it, and saw that it was given by her father, and glanced at Liu Xuping, who was expressionless, she wondered in her heart, how could this young man get his father's letter, could it be that his father sent a tank?
What are you kidding, this is the border, this is the battlefield, death can happen at any time, even if this boy is good, but he can't just come here to wander around, right? If something goes wrong, it's really a matter of putting your life here.
Even though she was puzzled, she couldn't figure it out, so she glanced at the young man and asked in a low voice, "Can I open it now?" She was afraid that this was a secret and that she could not expose it, at least not let others see the contents of the letter.
"Please." Liu Xu said indifferently.
