The night was as heavy as ink, and the torches in the camp were like dog's tail grass swaying in the wind.

Guan Cheng inspected the camp before walking towards the sleeping tent under Cao Ling'er's urging several times.

"Your Highness." Cao Ling'er stood outside the tent and bowed to the blessing, dignified and elegant, and her voice was like a yellow warbler, which greatly relieved Guan Cheng's original irritable mood.

"Ling'er, why haven't you rested yet?" Guan Cheng walked over quickly and dragged Cao Ling'er up and said angrily: "Didn't you say it, you have been tired of traveling for days, you have to pay more attention to rest, your body is important, there are still thousands of miles to go." ”

Listening to Guan Cheng's concern, Cao Ling'er lowered her head and smiled, which made the young man opposite's heart sway.

"Your Highness's grace Ling'er is very touched, but Your Highness should also pay attention to your body, you are the backbone of everyone, and you must not be lost."

Guan Cheng smiled and said, "Ling'er has a heart." ”

originally thought that today's intimacy was over here, but Cao Ling'er said: "Your Highness, Ling'er will stay with you for a while." After saying that, a blush crept up on her face.

Guan Cheng was stunned for a moment, then secretly rejoiced, and said, "Okay, then let's go with Lone." ”

Cao Ling'er was half a body behind Guan Cheng, and the serving grandmother followed unhurriedly with a tea tray ten meters away.

Guan Cheng felt that there was an indescribable sweet smell in the air.

From time to time, patrolling soldiers walked by to salute the two.

The camp is not very big, and it was over in less than half an hour, and the two chatted with each other, which made Guan Cheng's boredom completely relaxed.

"Ling'er, thank you so much today, I feel much more comfortable in my heart." Guan Cheng said with a smile.

"It's getting late now, so you might as well get some rest. Don't get tired. ”

But Cao Ling'er's look of wanting to speak made Guan Cheng very curious, and he couldn't help asking, "Ling'er, who are you?" Something? ”

Cao Ling'er plucked up the courage to raise his head to meet Guan Cheng's gaze and said: "Ling'er knows that there are some things that Ling'er can't ask, but His Highness has been frowning today, and Ling'er knows that many golden soldiers have chased after him, and it seems that there are a lot of people." Ling'er is a daughter, and she can't fight and kill the enemy, but Ling'er also wants to share her worries for His Highness, even a little bit. ”

Guan Cheng was moved in his heart, and held Cao Ling'er's hands with both hands, this action made the blush on Cao Ling'er's face even hotter, but he couldn't pull it out with a slight effort, and he gave up the insignificant struggle.

"Ling'er's mind can be felt by Lonely, but there is no need for you to worry about Lonely, there is Lone to support you on this day, what you need to do most now is to rest with peace of mind, and leave the rest to Lonely."

Cao Ling'er raised her head, although her face was still shy, she said without any twist: "Your Highness, Ling'er can see that Captain Wang has escorted a large number of baggage away, and the number of Jin soldiers on the opposite side is much more than ours. And the third uncle also told Ling'er that the chances of winning this battle are not good. ”

Guan Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly, Cao Wuming, Cao Ling'er's third uncle, the name Nameless was only chosen after following him.

Guan Cheng said quietly: "What else did he tell you?" ”

Cao Ling'er didn't hear the change in Guan Cheng's tone and replied: "Third Uncle said, we have a lot of recruits here, and it is difficult to beat the Jin soldiers on the other side, not to mention that the number of Jin soldiers is three or four times that of ours. ”

"None? Didn't he ask to be evacuated with the baggage? ”

Cao Ling'er wanted to shake her head, but thinking of her third uncle's appearance before, she still bit her lip and nodded, lowering her head.

Guan Cheng dragged Cao Ling'er's chin up and said: "He is your third uncle, so Gu should take care of him, but now that the big battle is imminent, the baggage team has already set off, and Gu has no more troops to escort him." ”

Cao Ling'er burst into tears from the corners of her eyes, nodded violently, and said with a cry in her voice: "Your Highness knows about Ling'er's good Ling'er, the third uncle should share his worries for His Highness, and Ling'er doesn't want him to be so afraid of death." ”

How could Guan Cheng bear the tears of the beauty, Guan Cheng, who had no teacher, gently hugged Cao Ling'er into his arms, this was the first time that the two were so close, and the serving grandmother and the guards hurriedly retreated a certain distance again.

This trick was really useful, Cao Ling'er's sobbing stopped instantly, and her voice sounded in Guan Cheng's arms like a mosquito: "Your Highness, Yu Li is not in agreement." ”

Guan Cheng laughed and said: "If there is a lonely place, it is a courtesy." After that, the big hand gently stroked Cao Ling'er's back a few times.

Cao Ling'er broke free with a slight force and said, "Your Highness! ”

"Okay, good, it's not in line with etiquette." Guan Cheng rubbed his hands and said with a smile.

"Go and rest."

"Your Highness, Ling'er still has something to say." Cao Ling'er stomped her foot anxiously, and at this moment, her cute original appearance was finally revealed.

"Oh? Then you say. ”

Cao Ling'er looked at Guan Cheng's eyes and said, "Does Your Highness feel that there are no strong troops inside and no strong reinforcements outside, and it is difficult to withstand the enemy's attack?" ”

Guan Cheng looked at Cao Ling'er with some surprise, a peasant girl, a little girl who had been doing rough work all the time, could say such a level of words.

"You found it yourself?"

Seeing Guan Cheng's serious face, Cao Ling'er thought that she had said the wrong thing, so she hurriedly lowered her head and didn't dare to speak.

Who knew that Guan Cheng said: "If Ling'er found these by yourself, then Gu really needs to get to know you well, and you gave Gu a big surprise." ”

Cao Ling'er quietly raised her head and glanced at Guan Cheng and said, "Ling'er saw that His Highness had been frowning since the afternoon, and she was anxious to look at it for a while. ”

"Well, tell me what else you've found?"

"Say it boldly, maybe what you say will inspire Lone a lot."

Hearing this, Cao Ling'er's face returned to a smile and said, "Really? Can Ling'er help His Highness? ”

Guan Cheng nodded heavily, and silence was better than sound at this time.

"Didn't you just say you had something to say to Lone? Speaking of it now, Lone is already a little looking forward to it. ”

Cao Ling'er felt greatly encouraged and said: "Your Highness, Ling'er thinks that Your Highness can lead your subordinates into the mountain, Ling'er has heard the sixteen-character mantra summarized by His Highness, isn't it just right in this vast mountain?" Defeating the strong with the weak and attacking the outnumbered, Ling'er felt that this was the best place, unless the Jin army had enough troops to turn over the entire Hangning Mountain. ”

Guan Cheng shook his head and said: "I have also thought about this Gu you said, but in that case, most of the grain and grass must be abandoned, otherwise it will be easy to be bitten by the enemy, and there may be unspeakable things at that time." But those grain and grass baggage is the guarantee for the lonely to go to the domain, without the grain and grass, even these two thousand people can't take it, without those treasures, even if they go to the Jin land, they will have the capital, and everything needs money in this troubled world. ”

Cao Ling'er said with a smile: "Your Highness, you are drilling the horns of the bull." ”

Guan Cheng asked puzzledly, "What do you say?" ”

Cao Ling'er said: "Although we need to give up a lot of things, it doesn't mean that we don't want these things anymore, right, it's just that we let Jin Bing keep them for us for a while, and when we defeat Jin Bing, aren't these things still ours." ”

"That's true, but it's easier said than done."

"But it's not easy to carry so many things, and will the soldiers slack off when they get so much food, grass, and money at once? Even if the golden soldier master can remain unmoved, what about those soldiers? ”

"And Ling'er thinks that after losing most of the baggage, we can gather all the troops well, and one more person will have a better chance of winning. Ling'er felt that the fist was much heavier than the palm of the hand. ”

Guan Cheng had completely put away his contempt this time, and after pondering for a while, he said to Cao Ling'er: "Ling'er, you're right, Lone is indeed a bull's horn, I didn't expect you to be so talented." ”

Cao Ling'er blushed after hearing the affirmation, buried her head again and said in a low voice: "If you can share the worries for Your Highness, Ling'er will be overjoyed." ”
