Counting the days, I suddenly found that the end of the year was approaching. But the people of Lancheng did not have a trace of the atmosphere of the upcoming festival. There were only two or three small traders on the streets, and since Shen Li and Shen Yan entered the city with a large army, the people rarely went out.

There are few people in this world who are fools, and in the face of the interests of life, people are very shrewd. They only need to look at the current situation to know that the border city is no longer safe. And how long can Lancheng, which is the closest to the border city, hold out?

The two princes are young and promising, and they have long heard that they are trustworthy people. But who knows if there are more powerful characters in the army of the Snow Country? I heard that the Snow Country captured the border city without injuring a single soldier, but only a few rats, so that the two princes abandoned the city.

That's right, it's the New Year. But the enemy army of the Snow Country is not far away, attacking at any time. Who still has the heart to celebrate the New Year? If there is a fight, maybe this year will not be over.

Although Shen Li and Shen Yan tried their best to appease the emotions of the people of Lancheng, they had no choice but had little effect. Shen Yan almost went door-to-door to visit, patting his chest in front of them and promising that he would be fine. But Shen Li stopped him, shook his head and said no.

It is appropriate to have a sense of crisis, after all, it is a matter of life and wealth. In war, it is true that the most innocent people are the people. When the time comes, the two armies will fight, and no one will take care of them, and they will have to rely on themselves.

*

On the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, nine days before the New Year, the eldest prince Shen Yao finally arrived in Lancheng. Seeing Shen Li, there was a burst of cynicism, and the angry Shen Yan almost started to beat someone, but fortunately he was stopped by Shen Li.

After Shen Yao arranged a place to live in the city, he asked Shen Li about the current situation, Shen Li took out the map of Lancheng and said it briefly, without mentioning the border city, let alone the secret passage.

Shen Yao listened boredly, and didn't seem to care very much. So the two of them had their own ghosts and were on each other's streets.

The next day, the Snow Country army besieged the city, and some soldiers shouted under the city. Shen Li, Shen Yan and Shen Yao went up to the city tower to watch, and saw Su Moxie, who was dressed in red, sitting lazily on the dragon chariot not far away, sitting lazily and watching leisurely.

There is a sedan chair on the right, and I don't know who is inside. There are soldiers standing side by side on both sides, and the momentum is magnificent. What is particularly conspicuous is the middle-aged general wearing rust-colored armor lined with green clothes, and the handsome young general beside him.

"Third brother, I'll go face it!"

Shen Yan was eager to try, and he couldn't wait. In his heart, this kind of righteous and bright competition is called a challenge. That little trick of playing the flute and putting the rats is completely unbearable!

"Slow!" Shen Li frowned and stopped him, glancing faintly at the soldiers in the city. "The following ones are just here to test, and the really powerful ones haven't appeared yet. Kill chickens with knives, you wait here first. ”

As soon as his voice fell, there were already soldiers who knew it and went down to fight. Shen Li raised his hand and pointed not far away, and said to Shen Yan, "Did you see the man in green clothes and the young general beside him?"

"Hmm. Shen Yan nodded, his eyes shining.

"I heard from the spies that it was the young general who defeated Old General Feng. Now it seems that the man in Tsing Yi seems to be even more powerful. Wait patiently, and when you see them come out, you go down and try to do it. Remember, be careful. If you are defeated, retreat and save your life, understand?"

Shen Li instructed solemnly, although Shen Yan was a little disapproving, he still nodded obediently. Shen Yao watched coldly from the sidelines, and did not express any opinions.

The gates of the city were opened, and some soldiers went out to meet the enemy. The other party is tall and big, Xu is Su Mo is evil people are good, it can be seen that he has practiced hard, and after a few moves, the soldiers of Mingguo are obviously a little invincible. One didn't pay attention and was slashed in the back. He fell off his horse with a cry of pain, and the Snow Country soldier immediately raised his knife and slashed over.

"Third child, it seems that you haven't practiced much these days? My father sent you to garrison, not for you to play. Look at these people's skills, tsk, I'm ashamed of you. ”

The eldest prince Shen Yao finally couldn't help it, and habitually began to provoke. Shen Li was not angry or annoyed, and replied lightly: "If the eldest brother can't stand it, you can go down in person to ask for advice." also told me to wait and take a good look at the majesty of my eldest brother. ”

"Huh!" Shen Yao rolled his eyes, "You just told Lao Qi that you use a knife to kill chickens." If I go down like this, won't I lower my status?"

"Then shut up and watch obediently!"

Shen Yan interjected coldly, which really made Shen Yao angry. Just wanted to teach this stinky boy who didn't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the sky, he saw the soldiers of Mingguo below pick the enemy soldiers off their horses one by one. Immediately followed by a stab, ending the other party's life.

"Good!"

The morale of the soldiers was greatly boosted, and Shen Yan also applauded on the city wall. This made Shen Yaogang's words swallow raw in his throat, and he could only pound the wall sullenly, and he was entitled to vent his anger.

After you came and went for a while, Su Moxie, who had been watching the play from a distance, finally moved. Seeing him wave his hand, Chu Han nodded and led a team of soldiers and horses forward.

At this moment, before Shen could leave his mouth, Shen Yan whistled to himself. I saw a black horse galloping out of the city gate. The Seventh Prince, with a spear in his hand, tapped his toes, and just leaped down from the high wall.

He took the horse rope and stepped forward, and the spear swung lightly, pointing directly at Chu Han. "I heard that Old General Feng was killed by you?"

Chu Han was stunned, frowning as if he was thinking. After a pause, he said slowly: "You mean the old general who was stationed in the border city before?"

"That's right, it's him. ”

"Hmm. Chu Han nodded, not hiding it at all. "He was defeated by my men. But I remembered his age, and I spared his life. What's the matter? He's dead?"

"Hah, spare his life?" Shen Yan sneered, his eyes showed a cold light at this moment, and he was exactly like two people when he was on the city tower before.

"The old general has fought all his life, although he can't say that he has won a hundred battles, but at least he has never lost to a hairy boy like you. Originally, it was enough to lose, but you still had pity and didn't kill him. The old general has high self-esteem, and seeing himself being pitied by a hairy boy is more unacceptable than killing him directly. For a while, he was angry and bloody, and he was killed. ”

Chu Han's eyes flashed slightly, and he said lightly: "I didn't know it would be like this." ”

"I don't care if I know it!" Shen Yan waved his hand and turned over on his horse. "You are a loyal servant of the Snow Country, and I am a citizen of Daming. I just want to tell you that the two armies are at war, but don't show mercy. Because no one will be grateful to you! ”

Chu Han rode forward and showed the long knife in his hand. "Deputy Commander of the Snow Country, Chu Han. ”

"Look at your age, you're all deputy commanders?"

Shen Yan grinned, and the spear stood at his side. "I am the Seventh Prince, Shen Yan. You'll have to remember the name!"

"Drive!"

As soon as the words fell, Shen Yan rode forward on horseback. Chu Han's eyes lit up, and he faced the battle coldly.
