Chapter 41: The Xie family is undefeated, and Linyi is not defeated
Stepping on the light of the morning light, Feng Xisheng hugged Huang Li, who had not yet woken up from his sleep, into the exclusive guest room of the Linyi City Lord's Mansion.
In the past few years, except for most of the time when the army was marching and fighting, Huang Li, as a general, lived in this simple room, a bed of good quality, in addition to a small round table and a few wooden chairs, and no other decorations.
The city lord of Linyi City is General Xie, who has been stationed here all the year round, that is, Xie Qingshan, the father of Xie Mingze, the deputy general of Huangli.
As a border general, Xie Qingshan is now over half a hundred years old and has been guarding Linyi City for more than 30 years, so he is most familiar with the situation here.
General Xie has always been known for his strictness in governing the army, and no one in the army expressed dissatisfaction with him, and they all admired him very much. The people in Linyi City and the surrounding people are very grateful to him, because as long as General Xie is there, they are safe and do not have to worry about their own safety.
The old generations of the Xie family have guarded this land, and the successive city lords of Linyi City have defaulted to the current head of the Xie family.
Xie Qingshan is the leader of the Xie family's generation, and was appointed as the next head of the family by the previous head of the family, and it has been more than 20 years since he took over as the head of the family. But Xie Qingshan only has one son, Xie Mingze, his wife fell ill when she gave birth to Xie Mingze, and passed away before two years.
The people of the Xie family, both men and women, must enlist in the army, guard Linyi City, guard the Yuyuan country, and the people of the Xie family are not heroes who died in battle, and the Xie family has also been added to countless glory.
There is a saying in Linyi City: "The Xie family army is undefeated, and Linyi City will not fall." ”
The Xie family army is an excellent army headed by the children of the Xie family. Every leader of the Xie family army speaks by strength, and under extremely strict training, every son of the Xie family who is appointed as the leader of the Xie family army is able to perform his position.
As the strongest defender of Linyi City, the Xie family army has always been at the forefront, which means that they must be ready to face death at all times. There is no humanity on the battlefield, the enemy will not show mercy to your subordinates because of what you are, flesh and blood fly, and the sacrifice of comrades is the most common thing.
Therefore, if you want to become a member of the Xie family, you must also go through layers of elimination and leave the best group.
But the current leader of the Xie family army is not the Xie family, but a powerful confidant of Xie Qingshan. First, because the junior of the Xie family is now only Xie Mingze, he needs to take over as the head of the Xie family in Linyi City, the lord of Linyi City, and lead all the garrisons in Linyi City to protect Linyi City and protect the defense line of this Abyss Country.
On the city wall, Xie Qingshan stood and looked out, his eyes full of heaviness.
Yesterday, the Qiyang Kingdom suddenly attacked, and the offensive was fierce, as if he wanted to take Linyi City in one fell swoop and step into the Yuyuan Kingdom. However, they encountered the strong Xie army, attacked for a long time, suffered heavy casualties, and were forced to temporarily retreat.
However, the situation of the Xie family army is also unprecedentedly bad, and it can no longer withstand the attack like yesterday, even if it is only once. Xie Qingshan was secretly worried about these situations, if His Royal Highness King Xuan couldn't arrive in time, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold it this time......
"General, General, His Royal Highness has come down!" The remaining soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion ran to the city wall and excitedly told the good news to Xie Qingshan, who was in a sad mood.
As soon as I heard the news, I felt joy in my heart. His Royal Highness is down, so Linyi City will definitely not be lost in his hands!
He had seen His Royal Highness the Emperor's miraculous ability to lead troops before, and he believed that as long as His Royal Highness was there, they were at least eighty percent sure that they could win this war. The other two out of ten are taking into account the unknown.
Xie Qingshan returned to the City Lord's Mansion with the little soldiers, wanting to see the Twilight King Huangli who had arrived immediately.
Hurried to the council chamber, but did not see the graceful person.
The soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion will never lie about the military situation, since it is said that the King of Twilight is coming, then he is really here. Instead, he walked towards the exclusive chamber of the Twilight King, no longer in the council chamber, then it might be there.
When I got to the door of the room, I was about to push the door in. At the same time, the door was opened from the inside, and a man wearing a mask walked out.
"Who are you?" Xie Qingshan's muscles tensed, his expression was serious, and he was ready to attack at any time.
This man is definitely not King Twilight, although he has not seen His Royal Highness King Twilight for more than a year, but he will definitely not admit his mistake.
It's just that this man's temperament is very noble, and his aura is extremely powerful, even if he is experienced in a hundred battles, he can't do this.
"Li'er hasn't woken up yet, don't disturb her. As he spoke, he gently closed the door again.
Although Huangli slept all night last night, almost all of them were on horseback, and the quality of sleep was not very good. Feng Xisheng couldn't bear to wake up Huang Li at this time, so he came out and closed the door, and asked people not to go in and disturb him.
Hearing this mysterious man's affectionate address to His Royal Highness, Xie Qingshan speculated that this man might be a close confidant of His Royal Highness or a very close friend of His Royal Highness.
Of these two identities, Xie Qingshan prefers the latter, because it is impossible for a crony to have such a temperament. But he hadn't heard of such a character among the younger generation of the Abyss Kingdom?
Xie Qingshan, who has never gossiped, naturally didn't know that there was a Snow Country envoy who had entered the Xue Wang's Mansion, and this Snow Country envoy was a man named Feng Xisheng.
Xie Qingshan didn't know Feng Xisheng's identity, but Feng Xisheng guessed Xie Qingshan's identity. To be more precise, I guessed that he was the head of the Xie family, the current lord of Linyi City, Xie Qingshan.
On the way here, Huang Li introduced the general situation of Linyi City to Feng Xisheng, including Xie Qingshan, who was the city lord.
Since he didn't know Feng Xisheng's exact identity, for safety reasons, Xie Qingshan led Feng Xisheng to the front hall, a place to entertain guests.
Along the way, Xie Qingshan continued to observe the young man, hoping to find information about his identity.
However, he observed for a long time, and when he arrived in the front hall, he did not find any accessories or ornaments that could truly represent his identity, and those obvious ornaments, he had not seen in that powerful family.
At this time, Xie Qingshan became more curious about Feng Xisheng's identity.
"I don't know what Your Excellency is called, do you have a relationship with His Royal Highness King Yu?" Xie Qingshan asked gently.
"Feng Xisheng, the husband of His Royal Highness King Yu. Feng Xisheng simply said his identity. However, Feng Xisheng did not say that he was a snow country envoy, nor did he deliberately not say it, but this identity was just a springboard used to get closer to Huang Li, and now that he had achieved his goal, he didn't take the identity of the snow country envoy to heart, so there was no need to remember, let alone say it.
It's normal to hear the first half, nothing, but what is the second half? He can't hear it wrong, right?
Isn't that a joke?
Their Royal Highness is a man, how can there be a husband, isn't it a lady, and shouldn't it be a woman? How can it be a young man?!
So Xie Qingshan's face obviously said, "Are you here to tease me", making it clear that he didn't believe Feng Xisheng's words.
"Don't believe it?" Feng Xisheng slowly spit out these two words, there was no accident that he would encounter such a situation.
After all, Li'er is still the king of the Abyss Kingdom to the outside world, an invincible god of war, and it is normal not to believe in his identity. It's just that this is a fact, no matter how much you don't believe it, you can't change it, and Feng Xisheng is not in a bad mood because of this.
"No, it's just, unbelievable. The men in front of him all asked like this, Xie Qingshan had to believe that no man would make such a joke.
Although the object is His Royal Highness King Twilight, but it will always cause people to gossip, this man can say it without mind, it can be seen that he cares about His Royal Highness King Twilight very much, and then contact his intimate actions just now, Xie Qingshan believes that Feng Xisheng is the identity of His Royal Highness King Twilight's husband.
"Your Highness, he is very good, I hope you don't make him sad. Otherwise, I, Xie Qingshan, will settle accounts with you even if I try my best!" Xie Qingshan threatened Feng Xisheng with a serious expression.
His Royal Highness is his favorite junior, and he hopes that King Twilight can achieve his own happiness, and nothing else matters.
What about the two men, it is not impossible to have such a thing in the barracks, and Xie Qingshan is also clear, so it is not difficult to accept it.
"Well, I'll take good care of her. To the old man with gray temples in front of him, Feng Xisheng did not hold a shelf, and replied reverently.
This old general Xie is one of the people that Huang Li admires, Huang Li once said to Feng Xisheng that when she was in Linyi City in the past, General Xie took good care of her and taught her a lot of things, and she can be regarded as half of her teacher. And the person that Huang Li respects is naturally the person he Feng Xisheng respects, and this old general Xie also deserves his respect.
"Such a big happy event, why didn't the old man receive the news?Did you do the happy event?When will it be done?" Old General Xie remembered, why did He only know about such a big event now His Royal Highness King Xi.
"In the last half month, it has not been done. As for when, it depends on what Li'er means. Feng Xisheng replied seriously.
"Okay, well, don't forget to invite the old man to a glass of wedding wine when the time comes!" Hearing that he had not missed such an important happy event, General Xie was overjoyed.
"Definitely! Li'er and I received your message last night and rushed over alone, and the army may not be able to arrive until night. Feng Xisheng explained the news that the reinforcements had not yet arrived.
"Just in time. With His Royal Highness the King here, we will be able to hold out until they arrive. His ideas have always been able to save the Abyss Kingdom, and I believe that this time will be the same. Xie Qingshan had a relaxed smile on his face.
"What are you talking about?" Huang Li stepped into the main hall sleepily. I was too far away to hear what was going on inside, so I asked, "I didn't miss anything important, did I?"
Seeing Huang Li coming in, the aura around Feng Xisheng suddenly became gentle, and he opened his arms and looked at someone who had not woken up yet.
Then the sleepy-eyed Huang Li seemed to see the target, and walked straight towards Feng Xisheng, and naturally entered Feng Xisheng's arms.
General Xie, who was sitting on the side, was still a little surprised when he saw this scene, and he was full of relief after being surprised. It seems that His Royal Highness King Yu has really found a good person, and in this situation, he should get along very well.
"Feng Xisheng, why didn't you wake me up?" asked Huang Li weakly, his spirit was still a little sluggish, and he obviously hadn't completely woken up yet.
"With me, sleep more, it's okay. And I can't bear it. Feng Xisheng tightened the glass in his arms and said softly.
"Well, no, you can't get involved in this. Huang Li withdrew from Feng Xisheng's arms and sat down next to him, cheering himself up. Then I saw General Xie with a relieved face.
......
Her appearance just now was seen by General Xie......? Shame on you!
"Hehehehe!" Huang Li laughed awkwardly, "Old General Xie, long time no see!"
"Well, long time no see, Your Highness the Twilight King. We haven't seen each other for more than a year. I'm afraid Your Highness has almost forgotten the old man's old bones. Xie Qingshan said with a smile.
"How can this be! Xie Mingze, Vice General Xie, always said in front of me that he missed you. ”
"Your Highness, you don't have to speak for him. That stinky boy wants to stay away from me, he doesn't want to be controlled by me. Old General Xie shook his head, obviously not believing what Huang Li said, Xie Mingze would think about him or something.
"Really, I'm not going to lie to you about anything like that. When Xie Mingze arrives, you can ask and you will know if what I said is true. Huang Li swore on the surface, but in his heart he was thinking that before Xie Mingze met General Xie, he must talk about it, otherwise he would be exposed.
But Xie Mingze is really, after being away for so long, she has never seen him say that she is homesick, so that she has to lie and deceive the old man.
(Xie Mingze: Where didn't I think about it?I just didn't show and say it in front of you, Your Highness!)
"What's going on out there now?" asked Huang Li solemnly.
After gossiping, she still has to get down to business, after all, the purpose of her coming here is to repel the army of Qiyang Kingdom.
'Yesterday we attacked once and we blocked it. Recuperation recovered for the night, and I don't know when it will start today. Recalling yesterday's battle situation, Xie Qingshan's heart ached.
"Have the ordinary people in Linyi City and the border already arranged to leave?" Huang Li thought about what to do and asked for more details.
"It's all gone. Now there are only Xie Jiajun and other soldiers left behind in Linyi City. But yesterday the Qiyang Kingdom suddenly attacked, and we suffered heavy casualties. Now less than 30% of the original force remains, and most of the soldiers are wounded. ”
"How long will it last?"
"At most, it's noon. ”
"But Xie Mingze and his reinforcements won't arrive until night. ”
Huang Li was worried, half a day, not just think about it. She needs to think about it, what can be used?
"Take me to see the wounded soldiers first. Huang Li requested.
"Okay, over here. Xie Qingshan got up and led the way.
The wounded soldiers were placed closer to the city gate, some distance from the city lord's mansion.
