Chapter 249: Nightfall
"Girl, watch out for your body." Yu Shu came to Xie Yan's back and put a cloak on her shoulder.
"It's okay, I'm fine." Having said this, Xie Yangui still gathered his cloak and did not refuse the kindness of the book.
When she was in Liaobei, even though it was freezing cold, she also had times when she wore single clothes.
After all, as the main general, she often leads her troops out of the city to meet the enemy or ambush, and it is inevitable that she will occasionally encounter accidents.
"The girl is worried about General Shen, right?" Yushu prepared "weapons" for other purposes according to Xie Yangui's instructions, but she also needed to rest.
Not only her, but also the soldiers and people who came to help also need to rest.
"Hmm." Xie Yangui nodded and sighed softly, "It's not just because of Shen Huaiyi, I'm also worried about Kyoto."
Recently, she has not received frequent letters from Kyoto.
People are always contradictory, when she received it frequently before, she would have worries in her heart, but now that she can't receive it, the worries in her heart are even better.
"Doesn't the girl worry about her uncle?" Yushu stood beside her, looking into the distance.
"A little." As if thinking for a moment, Xie Yangui spoke.
"If Uncle knows that you still have to think about it, I will definitely talk to you about it." Probably wanting to relieve Xie Yangui's heart, Yushu showed a smile on his face and joked with her.
"Zhou Jin is not such a character, the one you are talking about is Anyang, I don't know where she is now?" Xie Yangui's face showed a slight smile.
When sending Anyang away, Xie Yangui specially told her to hurry up, and it was best to leave Qiannan early, and she promised to do well.
As for whether she will listen to her after leaving the border, it's hard to say.
Anyang is actually quite right.
"As long as the county lord is not at the border pass, even if he is still in Qiannan, there will be no danger." Yushu comforted.
"I hope she can return to Kyoto safely, and I hope ...... The situation in Kyoto will not affect my aunt much." new
Xie Yangui had already received the news and knew what was going on, but he couldn't feel at ease at all.
She knows the whole truth, and she also understands that her aunt Xie Cheng has come to this point for a purpose.
Because of this, she was even more worried, because she knew what kind of true face the one sitting on the dragon chair had?
"I don't want to do that, the most important thing at the moment is the situation outside the city, you are working very hard now, just send me directly if you have news in the future, you can rest more." Xie Yangui said so, and Yu Shu nodded with a smile.
In the past, she was responsible for receiving news and screening, and there would be some useless things in it, so she didn't have to be known by Xie Yangui, so as not to be annoying.
Now the situation is different, and what is sent to them is basically useful news, so all of them are sent to Xie Yangui, and it will not add any burden.
However, for Yushu, who wants to concentrate on studying the ratio of "weapons", he can save a lot of time and take a good rest.
——
Outside the border pass city, the scouts who followed Shen Huaiyi out of the city finally found a strange place in the enemy garrison.
This place may seem different from other places, but in fact, there are dark lines that are always on the lookout.
He wanted to find out, but his ability was limited to be able to discover this place, and in addition to his carefulness, there was also some unexpected element in it.
Not daring to reveal his whereabouts, the scout general went back to recover from Shen Huaiyi.
During the period of their investigation, Shen Huaiyi and the others were not idle, they practiced everything that might happen after the operation, hoping that nothing would go wrong by then.
Seeing the scouts return and getting new information, Shen Huai also formulated a final plan of action.
They had speculated several times, and for the soldiers, they had been waiting for a long time for this moment.
As night falls, the three squads head in different directions, and the scout is left behind, who will return for help if necessary.
He hid in the shadows, kneeling on the ground with his hands folded, hoping for the first time that the gods and Buddhas in the sky could open their eyes.
Each squad carried a "weapon", and the person who carried it was determined by drawing lots.
Everyone knows what the fate of the person who carries the "weapon" may be in the end, but everyone wants to go, and they all hope that the brothers who fought side by side can survive, so in the end they decided to draw lots.
Even if you know that you are going to die, the person who catches that unusual ball of paper will still bare his teeth and smile.
Shen Huaiyi was followed by several young generals, who were lying in ambush near the enemy's camp tent, waiting for the time to come.
The night is getting deeper, the night in Qiannan is extremely cold, and the people in ambush are like carved stone statues, as if they can't feel the cold at all.
Suddenly, a noise came from the east side, where the heavily guarded granary was, and with a loud bang, the light of the fire reflected in the enemy's tent.
"Do it!" At this time, it was the moment for Shen Huaiyi and others to act, and under his orders, the young generals infiltrated the enemy camp with him.
In normal times, this is naturally not easy, but at the moment there is a fire in the place where they are stationed, and many people go to put out the fire.
"General, is that really a granary over there?" A young general walked forward quickly and asked in a low voice.
"Who knows?" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a fire in the direction of the north, which was a strange place that had just been surveyed by the scouts.
For a moment, there seemed to be chaos in the enemy's tent......
——
In the Qiannan border pass, Xie Yangui, who was originally asleep, suddenly opened her eyes, and for some reason, her heart palpitations were terrible.
The sound of footsteps came from outside the door, and Xie Yangui immediately got up and came to the door and opened the door.
"General, there's a fire in the enemy camp outside the city!" The young general replied to her.
"Let's see!" Xie Yangui commanded.
Since Shen Huai also led people out of the city, even if he rested, Xie Yangui slept in his clothes, wearing soft armor at all times.
Therefore, after getting the news, you can go out immediately.
She soon reached the gates of the city and climbed the walls to look out at the enemy garrison in the distance.
Even if they are far away, they can still see the fire, which shows that the "weapon" brought out is indeed amazingly powerful.
"I'll go out of the city first, and let the forward team go with me to save people immediately!" With a command, Xie Yangui quickly walked towards the city wall, and at the same time, she also ordered Ling Yuwei to follow.
Shocking Yu shouted, and at the moment when the rope bridge outside the city fell, he took Xie Yan to speed out of the city.
In the shadows, Ling Yuwei followed.
However, after half a cup of tea, the soldiers who had already been selected by Xie Yan as the vanguard team had been assembled and rushed towards the outside of the city together.
At this time, Shen Huaiyi, who had already touched the tent of the main general, did not know that Xie Yangui was already on the way to the rescue, so he carefully opened a corner of the military tent and looked into it.
"Oh no, I've been tricked!" There was no one in the tent, and Shen Huai quickly retreated.
At this moment, a soldier in armor came out from the rear, holding a long knife, and slashed towards Shen Huaiyi!
