Chapter 50: The Destruction of the Army
In a panic, Shi Lingyan saw Chu Xue's hideous smile, "The old lady is so big and hasn't been secretly calculated, it's up to you to ......" Suddenly, the anger of the past few days piled up on Shi Lingyan's heart, she didn't tolerate it, she grabbed Chu Xue's hand and didn't let go, as Shi Lingyan's body fell uncontrollably, Chu Xue also fell off the cliff with Shi Lingyan with a panicked face.
Death has to pull a person on his back, Shi Lingyan sneered and looked at Chu Xue who was frightened, anyway, he was already a person who had died once, what else was he afraid of.
The two of them had their own thoughts, and when they were about to fall to the ground, they saw Chu Li also jump off the cliff, landed earlier than the two of them, and caught the two who were about to land.
Sure enough, she was saved, Shi Lingyan gambled with herself, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and before she could say thank you to Chu Li, she saw Chu Xue holding Chu Li's arm with an aggrieved face: "Senior brother, this woman wants to kill me, and she actually said that I was pulled down the cliff." ”
"Chu Xue, don't talk about it. Chu Li's face sank, he didn't know how to explain to Shi Lingyan, he saw everything Chu Xue did to Shi Lingyan along the way, Shi Lingyan didn't mention these things, he understood what Shi Lingyan meant, so he didn't mention it, but he didn't expect Chu Xue to kill her now.
Chu Xue looked at Chu Li with a sad expression, senior brother has always been towards her, but this time she has always been responsible for herself as an outsider, she yelled: "Obviously, this woman wants to pull me to die together, today there is her without me, with me without her." As he spoke, he drew his sword and was about to resign to Shi Lingyan.
Chu Li's eyes were quick, and he blocked Chu Xue's sword.
Seeing that she was not far from the border, Shi Lingyan didn't want to make a branch at this time, since this Chu Xue couldn't tolerate herself so much, she had no intention of entanglement, "Don't fight anymore." Shi Lingyan had made up her mind, turned around and walked forward, "It's getting dark, we have to find a place to rest quickly." ”
Sure enough, Chu Li put away his sword and hurriedly kept up with Shi Lingyan's pace, although Chu Xue was reluctant, he had to do so, and by the time a few people found the post station, it was already dark.
"Miss Shi, you have a good night's rest, and I will call you early tomorrow morning. Chu Li said to Shi Lingyan and turned back to his room.
"Brother Chu. Shi Lingyan shouted to Chu Li, Chu Li was stunned, Shi Lingyan smiled: "Thank you for taking care of you during this time." ”
Shi Lingyan decided not to stay longer, anyway, she didn't have any luggage, and she went on the road alone in the early morning of the next day.
"It's still a pleasure to come alone. Without Chu Xue's calculations, Shi Lingyan only felt a lot more happy.
Unconsciously, it was already sunny and had been walking for several hours, Shi Lingyan sat under a big tree and rested for a while.
"Miss Shi!" A shout startled Shi Lingyan, I don't know when Chu Li appeared behind him, Shi Lingyan hurriedly got up, Chu Li also panted slightly, there were already fine beads of sweat on his sideburns, it seemed that he had been chasing for a long time.
"Finally found you. Chu Li breathed a sigh of relief: "Yesterday, my junior sister was rude, and I am here to compensate you." ”
This made Shi Lingyan a little at a loss, she just wanted to explain, but Chu Li spoke again: "Although it is almost to the border, it is very unsafe here, not to mention that you are a girl's family, I think we should go together, you can rest assured that I have taught my junior sister a lesson, she will not mess around." There was even a pleading look between the words.
Unexpectedly, this Chu Li was very reasonable, and Shi Lingyan could only respond politely: "This matter is also mine, I didn't want to make trouble for you......"
"We're just peers, it's not troublesome. Chu Li's attitude was very resolute, and at this time, Chu Xue also came from a distance, still looking reluctant, but he didn't dare to speak ill of Shi Lingyan.
Only then did they set off for the border again.
The army of Yaoguang Kingdom has been at the border for a few days, but they have not seen the people of the Heavenly Pivot Kingdom come to fight, and all the soldiers laughed that the people of the Pivotal Kingdom were afraid of fighting that day.
However, this situation made Mu Hua very distressed, the army's food and grass were insufficient, and in this case, it was necessary to fight quickly, if it dragged around, it would be unfavorable to them.
If the Tianshu Kingdom delays fighting, I am afraid that they will attack it first, Mu Hua stared at the topographic map and continued to study, and suddenly only heard the sound of war drums outside, he hurried out of the camp tent, only to hear the guards report: "General, the army of the Tianshu Kingdom is coming, and it is less than thirty miles away from our military camp." ”
While speaking, the deputy generals had already gathered in Mu Hua's tent, waiting for orders, Mu Hua knew that the current situation could not send troops to fight without scruples, and more importantly, to preserve his strength, he spoke after a while: "The army will not move for the time being, Vice General Luo, you lead three thousand cavalry to meet the enemy, you must not let them cross the border one step, and the rest of the people will be deployed in the camp with crossbowmen." ”
The generals hurriedly received the order, the military power of the army was still in Mu Hua's own hands, he had already made plans, if the three thousand cavalry did not resist the army of the Tianshu Kingdom, then he would personally lead the troops into battle.
The war drums outside the barracks were still beating loudly, and Adjutant General Luo's 3,000 iron cavalry blocked the Tianshu Army thirty miles outside the border.
"Haha, sure enough, it's three thousand cavalry. Ram Shen looked at it and laughed a little arrogantly, this time he was going to be ashamed. Tianshu sent 20,000 people to fight the vanguard, and 3,000 cavalry could not resist 20,000 infantry.
"General, the border is ahead, should we attack it? The guard asked Ram Shen.
Thinking of the fiasco last time, Ram Shen still had palpitations, this time he led the troops to the expedition to make meritorious service, so that the vanguard army of Yaoguang Kingdom was wiped out, it was already a great achievement, seeing that his army was also ruined, Ram Shen decided not to attack forward, if Muhua was still like last time, I was afraid that he would die here, thinking of this, Ram Shen hurriedly ordered: "Withdraw!"
"What!" Mu Hua slapped the table, "The three thousand troops led by Vice General Luo have all been wiped out?" At this time, the war drums have stopped, which means the end of this war.
The guards responded in a panic: "There is no one left, General Luo's people have blocked the Tianshu people from the border, and those Tianshu troops have withdrawn after lingering for a while." ”
Although he didn't let the Tianshu Army succeed this time, but after all, he lost a general and three thousand iron horses, Mu Hua was heartbroken, and at the same time very annoyed, "How many military horses did the Tianshu Kingdom send?"
"It looks like there are 20,000 infantry. As soon as the guard's words came out, Mu Hua was taken aback, the forward army actually sent 20,000 infantry, this time the Tianshu Kingdom was indeed prepared, but it was so targeted, but it was a little weird, 20,000 infantry against 3,000 cavalry......
Mu Hua had an ominous omen in his heart, the people of Tianshu seemed to know his strategy, and they could accurately compete with him without spending a lot of troops, and suddenly his eyes were cold: "There are meticulous works in the army." ”
