A month later.

"General, there is Yongguan ahead."

At this moment, it was twilight, and the sun was setting, and Chen Chao and his party stopped on a hillside with a high terrain.

Following Hou Ji's point, Chen Chao looked at an old city standing in the distance.

Yongguan is the defense line of Sanqianxia - Pingyi City - Yongguan, the northernmost pass city.

Its geographical location is very special, on the border between Daji and Qin.

Less than fifteen miles north of Yongguan, is the city of Qin.

If the Yunzhou bandits want to enter the hinterland of Daji, they must cut through this defense line that is hundreds of miles long.

Among them, Pingyi City is in the center of the defense line, and Zhou Mi is in charge himself!

At that time, the war will start, and Pingyi City will bear the brunt!

You will be attacked by the bandits at the fiercest level!

In comparison, the tail of the surging pass is less important.

Zhou Mi handed over the city to the Chen Dynasty to garrison, also because the Chen Dynasty did not have much experience in leading troops.

This favor will have to be repaid by Chen Chao in the future!

Turning over and dismounting, Chen Chao took a few steps forward and looked at the Yongguan in the distance.

Yongguan is an old city, and the yellow mud rammed city wall has been eroded by wind and rain, and several big openings have been opened.

The city wall is no more than two feet high, and the height of the two-story building looks dilapidated.

Outside the city, there is a dense forest not far away, and beyond that, there are plains as far as the eye can see, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty of defending the city.

A small river flows quietly around Yongguan, which is the Yonghe River.

Originally, the Yonghe River was a wide river that could cross large boats, but more than 20 years ago, the mountains and rocks in the upper reaches of the Yonghe River collapsed, blocking the river, and the Yonghe River became what it is now, half-dead.

"Hou Ji, go with General Ben to call the city."

Chen Chao took dozens of horsemen, jumped down from the hillside, and came to the gate of Yongguan City.

Before he could get closer, a limp arrow shot down from the city.

A few heads popped out of the city, dodging:

"Who's coming? Get your name in! ”

"This is the Great Age Yongguan! Thieves dare to commit crimes! ”

Chen Chao and his party laughed, and the slogan was shouted loudly, but they didn't see a bold lord coming out of the city, for fear that they would have been frightened by the bandits. Hou Ji took the tiger talisman from Chen Chao's hand, clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and the horse trotted to the root of the city wall.

Holding the tiger talisman in his hand, he raised his head, and Hou Ji shouted:

"I am the victorious army of the Great Age! Ordered to take over this place! ”

"Open the gates! Welcome me into the city! ”

"This is a tiger talisman, do you want to check it?"

Even if they don't know which army the "Victorious Army" is in Daji, they recognize the Tiger Fu.

In a few moments, the gate of the city that was about to collapse with a rotten push creaked open.

Chen Chao waved his hand and led more than a dozen people into the city first.

Five thousand troops then arrived.

Entering Yongguan, I looked all the way to the past, and it was shocking.

Although he was ready not to have any hope for the defense of this dilapidated city, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, Chen Chao couldn't help but reach out and rub his forehead, and a deep sense of powerlessness enveloped his body.

Where is this city?

It's obviously a small dilapidated village.

The city is full of randomly erected wooden sheds, and sewage flows in front of and behind them.

The 400 garrisons stationed here are all old, weak, sick and disabled.

The rags he wore were no different from a group of people begging for food.

Not to mention weapons and equipment, what do you want.

After inspecting the circle, Chen Chao reluctantly ordered:

"Hou Ji, tell our people to temporarily camp outside the city, deal with it for one night, and enter the city tomorrow to repair the city."

If it is too late today, the conditions inside the city are not as good as those outside the city.

Five thousand soldiers could only be temporarily stationed outside the city for the night.

It's not too late to come in when the city is repaired.

"Yes, my subordinates will go."

After Hou Ji left, Chen Chao found the generals stationed at Yongguan to understand the situation at Yongguan.

In fact, there is nothing to understand, everything is clearly in front of you.

Nothing, the Chen Dynasty needs to start from scratch!

……

The night fell as scheduled, and tents were erected on the leeward hillside.

Ning Baizhi made the bed in the tent, lifted the curtain and walked out, "Xiangye, the bed is made, come in and sleep." ”

Chen Chao, who was sitting on the grass outside the tent, heard the sound and came back to his senses.

From his point of view, the night sky at the border pass is really beautiful, full of stars, like a blue-gray ocean, and countless stars blink and twinkle.

"Xiangye?"

Ning Baizhi came to Chen Chao's side and shouted again.

Chen Chao smiled, pointed to the position beside him, and asked Ning Baizhi to come and sit.

Ning Baizhi didn't sit, but held her little hands behind her back, pouting and kicking the pebbles on the grass boringly.

"Xiangye, when can we fight?"

"Don't worry, the later you come this day, the better."

The girl said "oh", sat side by side with Chen Chao, raised her head to look at the stars in the sky, but sometimes she would secretly tilt her head and glance at Chen Chao.

"Xiangye?"

"What's wrong again......"

"Let's ...... Shall we try again tonight? ”

"Try? What to try? Chen Chao pretended to be stupid.

"That's it."

Ning Baizhi twisted her legs, lowered her head, and her face turned red after a while.

Chen Chao pretended not to understand, looked at Ning Baizhi, slightly curled the corners of his mouth and continued to ask, "Which one is that?" ”

Ning Baizhi was a little angry, clenched her pink fist, gently hammered Chen Chao, and lowered her head, "Xiangye obviously knows what I'm talking about, but he always makes fun of me these days, I don't like Xiangye anymore." ”

Chen Chao really has no way to take this girl, since that night in the camp in Qingyuan County almost smashed Huanglong, because of the delay of the Baiyun Temple, this matter finally came to an end.

But later, on the way to help Yongguan, this Nizi would still mention this matter from time to time.

Said that the last time she was not ready, now she is completely ready.

The two can have a relationship.

But Chen Chao politely rejected her.

Judging from Chen Chao's heart, Ning Baizhi's current age is still too young, and it is not appropriate to do that kind of thing.

Raise it for a few more years and see again.

Reaching out and rubbing Ning Baizhi's head, Chen Chao smiled, pinched the tip of Bai Zhi's chin with his big hand, and secretly took a bite while no one was paying attention.

"Satisfied now?"

Ning Baizhi was suddenly attacked, a little helpless, and her face turned even redder.

Chen Chao laughed, rubbed Ning Baizhi's hair with his hand, looked at the city of the Qin State in the distance, and said:

"When the battle is over, there is time, why are you a little girl in a hurry for this kind of thing?"

"I'm not in a hurry."

Ning Baizhi reached out to wipe the saliva on her lips, her little face tense.

"Okay, good, no hurry." Chen Chao said.

Ning Baizhi bit her lip, and when she saw that there was no one around, she suddenly became bold and threw herself into Chen Chao's arms, and Chen Chao was taken aback.

"Xiangye ......"

"Here, call the general." Chen Chao stretched out his finger and nodded Ning Baizhi's smooth forehead.

He couldn't remember how many times he had reminded the girl to change her name, and even Hou Ji had corrected it now.

Ning Baizhi spit out her pink little tongue and pretended not to hear.

still go his own way, "Xiangye, let's ...... tonight"

"Nope."

"What haven't I said yet?" Ning Baizhi pursed her mouth.

"Don't say it, I know what your idea is, if it doesn't work, it's not good, you're still too young, it's easy to damage your body by doing this kind of thing, in a few years."

Ning Baizhi turned over, sat on Chen Chao's lap, faced Chen Chao, put her arms around Chen Chao's neck, and said affectionately:

"I'm not afraid of damaging my body, as long as I can become a woman who is a good woman, I can do anything, and this time I won't cry out in pain again."

The girl always felt that if the layer of window paper was not pierced, there would always be a barrier between her and Xiangye.

Chen Chao's face turned bitter, and he didn't know how to correct Ning Baizhi's thoughts.

Just thinking about it, Ning Baizhi closed her eyes, kissed it boldly, and gently bit the tip of Chen Chao's chin.

Chen squirmed at the Adam's apple and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

The green girl in his arms has a fatal attraction for him.

Ning Baizhi and Song Qingwan and Murong Yue are two completely different types of women, Ning Baizhi is like a green fruit that has not yet fully matured.

Because of his young age and little experience, he has not yet understood the essence of human nature and society.

She has her own perspective on this complex world.

or ignorant, or timid, or ignore, or desperate.

Innocent and pure.

People can't help but want to be close and loved.

Holding the girl's pink face with both hands, and asking her to stop her very rusty teasing behavior, Chen Chaozhao kissed the cherry pink lips a few times.

Ning Baizhi was a little stunned, her eyes were round, and she pursed her lips and didn't speak.

"Well, don't make a fuss." Chen Chao pinched Ning Baizhi's fleshy face, and was addicted, "Wait until you grow up a little more......"

Ning Baizhi shook her head.

"Am I not pretty?"

She suddenly asked, leaving Chen Chao confused.

"How so? Angelica is beautiful. ”

Hearing Chen Chao praise her for her beauty, Ning Baizhi couldn't mention how happy she was.

"Then why doesn't Xiangye want me?"

"Uh...... To put it simply, it's you...... Your body is not fully mature, you are still growing tall, and it is not good for your health to do this kind of thing. Chen Chao stumbled and explained.

Ning Baizhi seemed to understand whether she understood or not, and nodded, "But I still want to ......"

Chen Chao rubbed his eyebrows, slightly annoyed.

He knew that Ning Baizhi admitted death, and if this little girl did not achieve her goal, she would never give up.

Chen Chao thought about it, raised his eyebrows, and suddenly remembered a good idea in his heart.

"Otherwise, I have a few ways to replace this kind of thing, and at the same time it won't hurt your body, I don't know if you want to."

Hearing this, Ning Baizhi nodded like pounding garlic, "I am willing, I am willing." ”

"That'...... Come back to the bill with me. ”
