Chapter 033: Lou Xiyu
On May 18 of the fourth year of Cheng'an, the night of the moon and stars was scarce, the pioneer general of the Tianxing Kingdom was Han as the commander, and Chen Mo, the general of the Feiyan Pass, assisted, led 200,000 troops to attack Langcheng at night, and occupied the city in the south of Ningyue, which was called the first line of defense.
This was also the first formal war in the formal sense since the war between Tianxing and Ningyue began for a few months, and it finally ended in the victory of Tianxing Kingdom, and the history books called this battle the Battle of Langcheng.
Ning Yue Kingdom lost a city, and the defender Zhao Yun ordered the deputy general to lead his troops to retreat to Wisteria Ridge before the city was broken to save more troops, while Zhao Yun himself was captured and fell into the hands of the enemy, and his life and death are unknown.
The day after the collapse of Langcheng, news came out of nowhere, saying that Langcheng, which had always been impregnable, was broken in just ten days because of the help of masters. This master's name is Mu Ye, and everyone only knows that he is a military advisor sent by Emperor Cheng'an of the Tianxing Kingdom to Lou Xi in front of the jade tent, and his origin is unknown, and his identity is a mystery.
Yu Han and Chen Mo confronted Zhao Yun in Feiyan Pass for nearly three months, but they still failed to take Langcheng, but this military advisor named Mu Ye had just arrived, so he did not hesitate to risk his life to sneak into the city, find the weakness of Langcheng, and cooperate with Yu Han to break through it in one fell swoop, and it was only ten days before and after.
It was on this day that the name Mu Ye spread in all directions at a speed like a strong wind and grass, reaching everyone's ears, setting off another round of storms in the already unpeaceful chaotic times.
When Mu Qingjue heard that Langcheng was broken because of Mu Ye's military division, she couldn't help but laugh wildly, overjoyed, and even sighed why a few years ago, when Tianxing and Ning Yue were fighting, why Mu Qingchen didn't stand up to help, but let Tianxing be defeated, but she had to leave her hometown to make peace with Ning Yue Kingdom.
At that time, Xiao Yi took the battle report that Langcheng had urgently submitted for eight hundred miles, staring at the name on the paper, his face was in a trance, and even showed a thoughtful look.
"Mu Ye. Xiao Yi opened his mouth and muttered, then put the battle report in his hand aside and ignored it.
"Your Majesty, do you want to go down and inquire about this military advisor named Mu Ye? He can take Langcheng in a short period of time, it can be seen that his ability is extraordinary, it is better to ......" Zhao Xu stood beside Xiao Yi, and also saw the content of the battle report, and opened his mouth to request.
"No need, Mu Ye, it must be a relative of the emperor of the Heavenly Star Kingdom who has never appeared in front of everyone. Xiao Yi shook his head, and had no intention of pursuing it.
Zhao Xu looked at Xiao Yi now, and was a little unpredictable for a while. Perhaps, he has never seen through Xiao Yi's thoughts, and since Mu Qingchen was buried in the fire, Xiao Yi's whole person has become even more wrong, at least once, he would strategize and give advice for everything he wanted, but now, his attitude is completely different.
Isn't it true that after avenging Concubine Zhuang and the first emperor, Xiao Yi's life has also lost its purpose? But now that he is the king of a country, his sustenance should be in Li Min's life......
Similarly, the news of Langcheng's destruction and the name Mu Ye were transmitted to Southern Xinjiang and Mobei, because Southern Xinjiang is a friendly state because of its alliance with the Tianxing Kingdom, so it is also a good thing for the Southern Xinjiang to have the help of the Heavenly Star Country, but for Mobei, it is a great threat.
Qingchen, who was far away in Langcheng, didn't know the movements of the royal family of the four countries, and even less knew that the name Mu Ye, her new identity, had spread throughout the territory of the four countries with the victory of the Battle of Langcheng.
On May 21 of the fourth year of Cheng'an, the main army of the Tianxing Kingdom, led by Lou Xiyu, arrived at Feiyan Pass from Xinlong City, and met with the 200,000 army led by the pioneer general Han to discuss the next battle plan.
"General Yu is worthy of being a veteran of the battlefield, and winning the division and taking Langcheng is equivalent to breaking the southern gateway of Ningyue Country, and the subsequent battles will be much smoother. "The hall of the guard's mansion at Feiyan Pass, Lou Xiyu said.
saw Lou Xiyu sitting in the first place, Yu Han and Chen Mo sitting on both sides, and Luo Yiyi, who had been sent to Lou Xiyu by Qingchen before, followed Lou Xiyu in disguise as a man and refused to leave.
"General Lou has won the award, the merit of Langcheng is all in the Mu military division, if there is no him, the last general does not know when he will be able to break through Langcheng. Yu Han said towards Lou Xiyu.
"What about Master Mu, Ben Shuai has been here for so long, and he hasn't seen him yet. Lou Xiyu heard Yu Han mention Qingchen, so he asked.
"General Qiyu, Mu Junshi did not live in the guard's mansion, but found a place to live on his own, and asked the general to wait, and the last general will send someone to invite Mu Junshi over. As Yu Han spoke, he said a few words to the little soldier behind him, but saw the little soldier nodding and turning to leave.
I don't know how long it took for Qingchen to arrive belatedly under the leadership of the little soldier, still wearing a black robe, with a silver mask covering most of his face, and strode into the hall.
"Qingchen?" As soon as Lou Xiyu saw Qingchen, her eyes immediately widened, she got up from her chair, looked at the figure standing in the hall, and made an unbelievable voice from her mouth.
Seeing this, Qingchen flashed a trace of obscurity in his eyes, but he didn't seem to hear Lou Xiyu's whisper, so he was unmoved, and bowed to himself:
"Humble Mu Ye, see General Lou. I have heard the name of General Lou for a long time, and when I see it today, I am fortunate to have three lives. ”
As soon as the words came out, a trace of disappointment crossed Lou Xiyu's eyes, this voice was not Qingchen, and Qingchen would not use such a tone to talk to him.
Luo Yiyi stood behind Lou Xiyu, staring closely at Qingchen in the hall, a sense of familiarity arose, just when she frowned and thought, she inadvertently raised her head, and met Qingchen's gaze in mid-air, and then Qingchen smiled and nodded at her, just out of politeness, nothing else.
"When the emperor's decree came to the army, Ben Shuai thought that Mu Junshi was a virtuous and respected elder, but he never thought that he was such a young son, and Mu Junshi was really young. Lou Xiyu came back to her senses and said to Qingchen.
"General Lou has won the award, and when he came to meet General Lou this time, he actually wanted to ask General Lou for one thing. Qingchen said, then stretched out his hand and slapped it twice.
Before Lou Xiyu could ask anything, she saw another man in black walking into the hall with a person outside, standing beside Qingchen, it was Zhao Yun, the guard of Langcheng with tomorrow.
"Master Mu, this is ......" Lou Xiyu looked at Qingchen suspiciously and asked.
"The reason why Langcheng was able to break so quickly is that General Zhao is the real attribute, he made the best decision at the last moment, did not lead the troops to defend Langcheng, reducing the senseless sacrifices between the two armies, which allowed our army to break through Langcheng so quickly. Qingchen explained, "General Zhao once said to the humble position, he admired General Lou's marching style, and also admired the strict discipline of the Lou family's army, if he could, he wanted to ask General Lou to give General Zhao a chance." ”
"What does the military advisor mean is to let Zhao Yun serve in front of General Lou's tent, but don't forget, he is the general of the Ning Yue Kingdom, and it is too risky to do so. Chen Mo, who had not spoken, was the first to stand up and object.
Qingchen did not answer Chen Mo's words, but looked at Lou Xiyu, as if waiting for his answer.
"This marshal can't make the decision in this matter, it depends on General Zhao's own will. Lou Xiyu opened his mouth and said, "Although Ben Shuai has not had the honor to confront General Zhao head-on, he has also heard of the prestige of General Zhao Yunzhao, the defender of Langcheng. If General Zhao is sincere, what should the enemy generals do? ”
"General Lou is also the most respected general in Zhao's life, Zhao is older than General Lou, but he is not as far-sighted as General Lou. Zhao thanked General Lou for his attention, but the loss of Langcheng was Zhao's fault, Zhao had made a big mistake, and now he just wanted to take his father to return to the field. Zhao Yun said, rejecting Qingchen and Lou Xiyu's proposal to recruit him.
"Even so, Ben Shuai does not force it, General Zhao can leave with Ling Zun on his own. Lou Xiyu said.
"Thank you, General Lou. Zhao Yun said, arched his hand, and turned to leave, but at the moment before going out, he turned his head and took a deep look at Qingchen.
"General Zhao, there will be a period later. Qingchen smiled and said.
"General Lou, just let him go, won't he reveal all the news of our army?" Chen Mo asked puzzled.
"Didn't you listen to what Master Mu said? There will be a period later, and you and General Zhao will meet again. Lou Xiyu shook her head, smiled, and looked at Qingchen, her eyes flashing with inquiry.
"General Lou has been in the dust all the way, it's really hard, it's better to take a break, the marching route behind, after the soldiers recover their vitality, and then make plans, how about it?" Yu Han looked at Lou Xiyu and asked.
"According to what the general said, but Ben Shuai has some things about the capture of Langcheng and wants to consult Mu Junshi alone, and he also asks Mu Junshi to appreciate his face. Lou Xiyu said, and finally set her eyes on Qingchen.
"The general opened his mouth to invite, and he didn't dare to disobey his humble position. Qingchen nodded in response.
Seeing this, Yu Han and Chen Mo knew that Lou Xiyu and Mu Ye must have something else to say, so they didn't stay in the hall for long, but gave up their hands and turned to leave.
At this time, Luo Yiyi, who was behind Lou Xiyu, picked up the teacup on the table and threw it towards Qingchen, sparing no effort and even hitting Qingchen's face door impartially.
Seeing this tomorrow, he immediately struck, used enough internal strength, and smashed the teacup when it was still a foot away from the dust. The teacup shattered in the air and then fell to the ground with a crunching sound.
"What does General Lou mean by this?" Tomorrow stared at Lou Xiyu and asked in a cold voice, "My son-in-law is very expensive and can't withstand the slightest damage." ”
"Are you really not Mu Qingchen?" Luo Yiyi didn't care so much, stared at the silver mask on Mu Qingchen's face, and said, "Do you dare to take off the mask on your face?"
"Mu Qingchen is the only princess of my Tianxing Kingdom, two years ago, in order to ensure the safety of Tianxing Kingdom, she had married to Ningyue, and then died in the palace of Ningyue Kingdom, how could she appear here?" Qingchen said, "What's more, the princess is a woman, and she is a man below, how can she be a princess below? As for the mask on her face, it was because she was caught in a fire in her home since she was a child, and she burned her face, and she was ashamed to see people, so she had to cover it, if you rashly take off the mask, I am afraid that it will scare Your Excellency." ”
