Outside the city walls of Shuozhou, Lin Shicheng fought desperately with the rebels, although the knife wounds and sword wounds on his body were constantly spurting blood, although he was so weak that his feet were weak and his eyes were black, he still did not stop the movements of his hands at all, and he did not stop killing the traitors who came to invade without stopping.

A tragic, life-threatening roar seeped through him, and his already hoarse throat spread into the blood-stained yellow sand, making people afraid to step forward.

The rebels, the rebels who can never be killed, are like zombies, wave after wave, never dissipating, and less than a third of his men are left after nearly a night of fighting.

Many rebels have broken through the siege and broken into Shuozhou City, and at this time, the scene in Shuozhou City, he Lin Shicheng simply can't think of it. Has it already been a river of blood, has it been a mountain of corpses?

Is it his fault all along? If he can't wait for reinforcements, he just surrenders, why do he have to defend this lonely city for the sake of a lifetime of fame? Is this world's fame more useful than the lives of thousands of people?

Reinforcements, he sent someone 800 miles ago to urgently report to the emperor to request additional reinforcements, why is there still no trace of it?

Sure enough, a companion is like a tiger, no matter how dedicated and conscientious you are, once one day you are a master, then all your previous achievements will become a sharp weapon that makes the emperor resentful, and becomes a gravedigger who wants your life.

It was too late, he realized it too late. can't wait for reinforcements, can't save the people, and only death awaits him.

It's good to be a loyal soul buried in a foreign country, and it can be regarded as the fulfillment of his wish to die like Mount Tai.

If the person he loved was still alive, if his child was born, he hoped that many years from now, they would come to his grassy grave and pour him spicy and sweet reed wine.

He looked forward to it for thousands of years, and after thousands of years, his descendants will never forget that there was once a group of warriors who shed their blood and sacrificed their young lives for a lonely city!

"Kill!"

The urgency of killing the enemy did not allow him to be sentimental about the world, and he continued to shout, his hands moved faster, and there were more bewitching blood marks on his body, which were fresh blood gushing out of the arteries of the rebels.

"Kill!"

It was the same roar, but it was not the roar of one person, but it was heavy, like the sound of tens of thousands of soldiers shouting in unison.

Lin Shicheng turned around in surprise, and saw countless people with weapons suddenly rushing behind him, including soldiers in armor and masked assassins dressed in black. They had only one goal: to drive the rebels out of the city.

He didn't wait for the reinforcements sent by the emperor to whom he was wholeheartedly loyal, but what he was waiting for was the reinforcements that he had scraped together from nowhere, and Lin Shicheng's sudden heartache and his heart trembled uncontrollably.

When the reinforcements walked in, Lin Shicheng took a clear look at the two people who were the leader: Qin Mingyue and Wei Xun.

At the door of the restaurant, King Yi and Gu Liancheng were still fighting hard, Gu Liancheng's figure was slowing down, and he seemed to be exhausted, while King Yi was average after all, and there were already several new injuries on his body at this time.

Mu Xize, who had just helped Begonia give birth to a child, and Ye Ningxiang, who was sweating profusely and exhausted, also threw themselves into the battle.

However, after all, there are few people and they are lonely, even if they are outstanding in martial arts, but when their strength is always exhausted, there will always be a moment, and the brain will be overly exhausted, uncontrollably trance, and then leave a shocking wound.

The restaurant was in shambles, and had long since been destroyed to the point where it had completely lost its original appearance. There were more and more rebels surrounding them, and they seemed to smell their difference, and there was a sense that they would not give up until they were captured.

Ye Ningxiang dragged their injured bodies one by one from the door to the hall, and retreated to the sleeping Begonia.

"His Royal Highness King Yi, you take Xi Ze and go first, as long as the two of you don't fall into Mu Jinghong's hands, there is still room for redemption!"

Ye Ningxiang shouted at King Yi while blocking the attacking rebels, and then looked at Mu Xize with a side face reluctantly.

"Don't, lady...... Live and die together. ”

The incoherent words that he tried his best to utter deeply touched the softest nerve in Ye Ningxiang's heart.

"If you live, I will live, and if you die, I will die. I will live and die with you. ”

Mu Xize's words strongly hit Ye Ningxiang's heart, whether it was him who was calm and wise, or he who was stupid and crazy, he always held her life in the palm of his hand, and he had to advance and retreat with her, and live and die together. Rows of warm and salty tears burst out of Ye Ningxiang's eyes again.

At such a critical moment, no one escaped, no one disarmed and surrendered, and being able to die with such a group of backbone people made Ye Ningxiang feel that it was a great honor in life.

The movements of the rebels' hands gradually stopped, as if they were looking at the prey they were bound to get, looking at these people who were already exhausted, and some of them still had a wicked smile on the corners of their mouths.

The officers and soldiers led by him stepped forward and said with a very sinister smile: "What, do you still have to resist stubbornly? This Shuozhou City has been broken by Duanwang's army, and you can't escape!"

The rebel army walked towards Ye Ningxiang and them unscrupulously, with a smile on his face, as if he was sure that Ye Ningxiang and they would definitely become the captives of King Duan.

"So, you still vote obediently"

Before he could say the word, an arrow suddenly appeared out of thin air from his heart, and the cold beak of the arrow shot through his back, piercing his heart with great precision.

His eyes widened in disbelief at the arrow that had been inserted into his heart, and the blood that was spreading and spreading, and he fell straight to the ground, unable to utter a word.

The rebels were terrified, and quickly turned their heads, searching for the murderer of their leader.

I saw that there was indeed a man standing outside the restaurant, a man with a bow and arrows, wearing a black cloak with a hat, and a hat on his head that covered most of his face. Just from the facial features of his long face, it can be concluded that he is a handsome young man with well-rounded facial features.

Although it was different from the appearance that Ye Ningxiang had seen before, Ye Ningxiang still recognized his identity at a glance the moment she saw the man, her best friend Wei Xun.

Wei Xun slowly raised his lowered head, and a quiet, cold face that was different from before was displayed in front of the world, and a pair of eyes were as sharp as knives, making people dare not look directly at him.

"Who wants to die?"

Wei Xun's voice was low, and his words were full of strong killing intent, as if he was really a killer who took people's lives, and there was no trace of the elegant scholar in the past.

"You, do you think you'll be able to get out of here alive alone?"

A surprisingly bold soldier among the rebels opened his mouth without fear, but as soon as these words came out, Wei Xun's side suddenly became hundreds of more soldiers. These soldiers were still converging in the direction of Wei Xun.

Already at a loss for the leader, and now surrounded by this group of soldiers who appeared out of nowhere without warning, these rebels' psychological defense line collapsed, and they couldn't even hold the knife in their hands.

"The rebels attacking the city outside Shuozhou have been repulsed, and now you are the turtles in the urn, and you can't escape. If you still want to live, you must be captured quickly, or you will have to leave your bones to see your parents, wives and children. ”

Wei Xun's voice was much softer, as if he deliberately showed sympathy, deliberately sighed, and disintegrated these rebels who had no chance of winning from his heart.

Those rebels, you look at me, I look at you, and then they reluctantly put down their long knives and surrendered on one knee.

Seeing that these rebels no longer posed any threat, Wei Xun finally took off his cold and murderous disguise, and rushed in front of Ye Ningxiang like an arrow, both urgent and happy, and his words were incoherent.

"Ning Xiang, I, I'm glad you're okay!"

At this time, there was a sudden sound of galloping horses next to the restaurant, and with a long roar of the horse, Lin Shicheng jumped off the horse, dragged his body covered with scars, and ran into the restaurant like crazy.

"Begonia, Begonia, I'm back, wake up!

As he spoke, Lin Shicheng had already hugged Begonia tightly into his arms, and kept stroking Begonia's cheek, hoping that she would wake up immediately.

"General, don't worry, Sister Begonia is just too tired to fall asleep temporarily, and she will wake up soon. ”

Mo Xiaoqin said as she handed the baby wrapped in her coat to Lin Shicheng.

"Look, General, this is your daughter!"

Looking at this little life who had just come to this world, Lin Shicheng looked incredulous, took the baby stiffly, and looked directly at the child for a long time before opening his mouth.

"Is this my child?"

Immediately, Lin Shicheng laughed, and the words were filled with irreducible joy.

"Hahaha, I have a child in Lin Shicheng!"

Looking at the captured rebels, as well as these soldiers with tired faces but smiling faces, Ye Ningxiang breathed a long sigh of relief, and a long-lost smile appeared on her face. The long battle was finally over, and although it was a difficult process, they still won.

On the way back to the palace, Ye Ningxiang learned from Wei Xun the reason why he would come here. It turned out that Lin Shicheng had asked Mu Jingyuan for assistance as early as a month ago, but Mu Jingyuan listened to Xiao Qingyu's slander, and was afraid that Lin Shicheng's high merit would do something unfavorable to him, so he kept suppressing the reinforcements.

Wei Xun was afraid that Ye Ningxiang would be in trouble alone in Shuozhou, so he asked Mingyue Pavilion to help in the name of protecting the people of Shuozhou.

Unexpectedly, Qin Mingyue, who was supposed to be standing in the same boat as Xiao Qingyu, couldn't bear to see the people suffering anymore, turned against Xiao Qingyu, gathered the old department he had left in the court, and the shadow guard left by Mu Xize, and ran for five days and five nights in a row before barely driving the rebels out of Shuozhou.

On this night, the people in the city were full of joy to send the Luhua wine they had brewed before, and the surviving soldiers pushed the cups and exchanged glasses, and raised their glasses to drink, and Shuozhou City also showed a peaceful atmosphere that had not been seen in several years.

Ye Ningxiang was too tired, and after settling down with Mo Xiaoqin to take care of the begonias, she took a bath, and she didn't care about the Yiwang Mansion, which was destroyed by the rebels, and fell asleep.

On the second day, Ye Ningxiang got up early, holding the portrait of Zheng Quan that Wei Xun had given her earlier, and was ready to follow the clues provided by the household department to find his whereabouts.

As soon as she stepped out of the gate of the palace, she saw an extremely familiar figure, Wei Xun didn't know when she came here, it seemed that she had been waiting for a while.

"Brother Wei!"

Ye Ningxiang looked at him in surprise, she didn't plan to call Wei Xun to look for a witness when she wanted Wei Xun to have a good rest, but at this moment, this person she never planned to call was actually up earlier than herself, and was waiting for her at the gate of the palace early, ready to look for Zheng Quan's traces with her.

"Ning Xiang, you are so bad enough of a friend, if you want to come out to find Zheng Quan, you won't call me!"

"Brother Wei, I'm not afraid that you will be too tired!"

"I'm a man, I'm not so weak!

After speaking, Wei Xun took Ye Ningxiang's hand and walked towards Zheng Quan's residence with a smile on his face.
