At noon, the sun is scorching.

The weather here is so strange, the cold at night envelops the earth from the hills, but the day is extremely hot.

The whole day, the umbrella was stretched high.

On the official road, most of the insect moans have weakened, and only Na Zhi is still tirelessly noisy. Two horses, dragging a chariot, were slowly walking back along the way they came. In the place where the two yokes in front of the wheel were placed a corpse covered in blood. The corpse's head, split from its neck, was hung on a military flag bound with a bamboo mast, and was raised high, emitting a rancid smell of blood, attracting a large number of flies to buzz around.

In front of Wuyi City, the cruel battlefield has been cleaned up in the morning, leaving only the smelly blood and flying soil, and still silently mourning the dead soldiers, and the sadness has soaked the hearts of tens of thousands of people, and has been suppressed in the scorching sun, extremely dull.

The 100,000-strong army has been put in order and is encamping and resting.

In this battle, more than 60,000 soldiers were wounded and unconscious, and about 20,000 died, while the remaining more than 10,000 soldiers buried their dead comrades one by one under the scorching sun. The campfire was lit, and the lunch meal was mixed with the smell of blood, and they held it in their hands, and it was tasteless and difficult to choke. I kept holding a breath in my heart, very aggrieved, and very sad. If it weren't for his own experience, who would have believed that just two people would have slaughtered their army of 100,000 people. And what is even more devastating is that General Xue, whom they have always admired, abandoned them and fled alone.

None of them spoke, and sat quietly on the earth, stained with the blood of their companions, hanging their heads and secretly grieving. Until a chariot slowly came from the high mountains and willows, breaking the rather oppressive atmosphere.

The sound of horses' hooves was thin and soft, but many people still noticed it and looked up.

A bloody head was hung on the bamboo mast on the chariot, his eyes were wide with anger, and he still had a strong unwillingness until he died, which absorbed the hearts of tens of thousands of people. The 80,000 remnants of the army, one by one, stood up and watched quietly.

They know it, and they know the head.

In the field, tens of thousands of troops who could still move stood up, and they felt a pain in their hearts, grabbed their companions' bodies, and clenched their fists tightly!

Xue Pingzhi is dead!

Eat the consequences, and be happy!

But where should they, the remnants of the army guarding the frontier, go?

What they didn't notice was that on the chariot at this time, a military flag with the word "Xue" written on it was swaying in the wind, and several big characters were actually drawn on it with human blood: "The Xue family intends to rebel, and you will wait for the destiny of heaven." ”

A line of blood words, shining in the sun!

The war horse gradually walked over, and Wu Guohua, who had a sad face, squeezed out of the crowd, stared at Xue Ping's separated body, and exhaled a deep breath of turbidity as if relieved. He swept his feather fan, pulled the reins to stop the horse, jumped into the chariot on his own knees, took down the flag, and read it carefully, and felt that this sentence was very scary.

Xue Ping's death was at the hands of that powerful young man, and he was naturally happy for the remaining army of less than 80,000. But the words on this battle flag made him startled a lot, and he hurriedly rolled it up in his hand.

He looked at the group of curious soldiers beside him and looked at the flag in his hand, and felt very uneasy in his heart. If it is really as the blood words on this battle flag say, then the group of soldiers in front of him, I am afraid that none of them will be spared, and they will be buried for the rebellion of the Xue family, because they are Xue Pingzhi's army.

The adjutant general naturally recognized this sentence, and there was a trace of anxiety in his eyes, although most of the 80,000 remnants of the army were illiterate, they were still seen by a small number of people. He hurriedly walked in front of Wu Guohua and asked in a low voice, "Strategist, ...... What to do?"

Wu Guohua instantly looked like he was ten years old, his sideburns were full of corners, and he sighed helplessly: "Alas, the Xue family has wronged our army." Only by ordering someone to send it to Emperor Zhao can our army be spared from continuous punishment. But this may be even more dangerous, the Xue family covers the sky in the imperial court, this flag, I am afraid that if it cannot be delivered to Emperor Zhao, our army will be destroyed in the hands of the Xue family......"

When the adjutant general heard this, his body trembled, his face was extremely solemn, and he shook his head and said, "No, I can't watch the army I have cultivated fall like this." Strategist, quickly burn this flag, we can pretend that we don't know anything, obey the orders of the Xue family, and act when the opportunity arises. In this way, the foundations of our army may be preserved. ”

"It's a big rebellion!"

Wu Guohua glanced at the deputy general angrily, his face was very ugly, but he nodded again after saying this, and said solemnly: "When life and death are at stake, it can only be like this!"

He raised his head and squinted his eyes, but saw two figures flying in the air from the upper floor of Wuyi City.

"Prepare for battle!"

The adjutant general found a red tassel gun out of nowhere, put his legs on the ground, jumped up, and asked at the two figures flying in the distance, "Who is coming?"

"Mu Yici!"

The delicate figure under the cover of the hat was grabbed by an extremely fat man in a long robe, and the speed was surprisingly fast, and it landed on the ground in a blink of an eye.

Mu Yici took off the hat, a long black hair like a spring slid between the snow-white fingers raised, coiled into a bun, the jade hairpin was loose and loose, and then a branch of gold was inserted, and the long beads trembled and hung down, swaying between the temples. She was wearing a light long gauze dress, her appearance was dignified, and she also revealed an indescribable sense of bewitchment. The delicate skin glows with a faint red glow, which is beautiful. The phoenix eyes are rippling, which can capture the soul and sway, and the lips are like cherry blossoms, which leads people to infinite reverie. At this moment, she looked at the head of Xue Pingzhi, who had been dead for a long time on the chariot, and the peerless beauty of Fanghua was full of bewitching coldness and silent joy.

It's better if Xue Pingzhi died, she just needs to keep the child in her belly safe!

Wei Bugui's left hand was empty, and seeing that the deputy general was still holding the opposite side at this moment, he took off the hat on his head and shouted angrily: "Bold deputy general, don't you salute when you see the sixth lady?"

The deputy general in the sky had a sharp look in his eyes and glanced at Wu Guohua. Fang Cai dodged to the ground, put away his weapon, and bowed to his fists in salute.

"The last general will see the sixth lady and meet the chief of the path of no return!"

Wu Guohua hurriedly put the battle flag full of blood in his hand into his sleeve. Jumping off the chariot, he also bowed his hand and said with a sad face: "Wu Guohua sees the sixth lady and meets the chief of the road of no return." Sixth Madam, we have failed to protect the general, please punish the Sixth Madame!"

Wu Guohua's action of secretly stuffing the military flag into his sleeve robe did not escape Mu Yici's eyes. She opened her lotus steps, walked towards Wu Guohua step by step, stopped in front of him, and said with a sneer: "My husband is dead, but I have no right to punish you...... But you have always been his soldiers, and you ought to be with him to his death...... But if you give me what is in your bosom, I will spare your life!"

She stood elegantly in front of Wu Guohua, and a fragrant smell lingered on the tip of Wu Guohua's nose. The words were very light, but they fell on Wu Guohua's ears, but they were so frightened that Wu Guohua trembled, and he didn't dare to come out, so he hurriedly said: "This is just a military flag, and I put him away carefully, just to cover it on General Xue's body, in memory of the general's spirit in the sky." The general has made great achievements for His Majesty Chen Guoguo, and he is a hero in the eyes of our army, and he should be mourned by our whole army. ”

Mu Yici calmly looked at Wu Guohua, who was at the head of the general, and suddenly smiled, and said: "The military advisor has a heart, and I will personally send my husband's body back to Liang Jing." It's just that Yi Ci always feels that the military advisor seems to be hiding something from me?"

The big words on this military flag are related to the life and death of the 80,000 remnants of the army, how could Wu Guohua hand it over to Mu Yici. He raised his head slightly, glanced at the weak woman in front of him, made a great determination, and said firmly: "Don't dare, the sixth lady is a noble body, this military flag is stained with too much blood, I am afraid that the sixth lady's hands will be dirty! Someone, invite the sixth lady into the handsome camp to rest!"

"Sixth Madame, please!"

The deputy general on the ground judged the situation and immediately walked up, bowed to Wu Guohua's body, and stretched out his hand to lead the way for Mu Yici.

There was a cold light in his eyes, but Mu Yici didn't move, the smile on his face was gently withdrawn, and he said calmly: "It seems that the military advisor and the deputy marshal are all outsiders to me, right...... In that case, if you don't return to the Dao Chief, I'll trouble you to make a move!"

She took a few steps back, her voice ethereal, but mixed with a chill.

Wu Guohua had a bad heart, and was about to open his mouth to stop it, but it was too late. I saw that Wei Bugui's body shook out a wave of anger, and his body rushed towards the deputy general like a ball, very flexible and fast. Under the dazzle of everyone, Xue Pingzhi's only remaining right hand had already pinched the neck of the adjutant general, only to hear the crisp sound of "card rubbing", and the adjutant's frightened red tassel gun had not been raised, and it had lost its vitality.

Wei Bugui threw the deputy general to the ground, shook his hand disdainfully, and before Wu Guohua could recover from the shock, Wei Bugui came to him again, kicked him to the ground, and stepped on him with his foot, making him unable to move.

Immediately, Wei Bugui bent down, took out the blood-covered military flag from his sleeve, and handed it to Mu Yici's hand.

Mu Yici spread it out, and when she saw the dazzling blood word on it, her face instantly became gloomy, and a coldness gradually emanated from her body.

"Military advisor, do you know the depth of this sentence on the military flag, which may make Chen Guo fall into a catastrophe from which he will never recover, and the people will be like fire and water, and then disasters will be rampant, mourning will be everywhere, and blood will flow like a river, which is something that no one wants to see. ”

Wu Guohua's face was like ashes, crawled around, knelt at Mu Yici's feet, and a sad voice sounded in the army: "Please let the sixth lady let go of these 80,000 soldiers, they are innocent, Wu Guohua is willing to die to apologize!"

Mu Yici's face was expressionless, he shook his head slowly, rolled up the general flag, as if he was not in a hurry at all, and said slowly: "Military advisor, as long as you surrender to me, don't say it's you, this 80,000 army, no one will be implicated because of this flag." ”

Wu Guohua's expression was stunned, and he said in a daze: "Surrender to you?"

Mu Yicilian moved lightly, stood in front of Wu Guohua, looked down at him from above, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, surrender to me, I will ensure that your army is fine, otherwise ......"

Her face suddenly changed, her tone became gloomy and numb, and she smiled coldly: "Otherwise, it will be the death of these 80,000 troops, along with their parents, wives and children!

80,000 lives, and countless others to be implicated......

Wu Guohua's heart was like ashes, looking at the deputy general who fell to the ground, his vitality was annihilated, how could he not know that Mu Yici was killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys. He looked at this weak woman with a beautiful national color, and a feeling of powerlessness rose from the bottom of his heart, and his face already had the meaning of fear and submission.

Even Wei Bugui was bought by her, what choice could he have.

Unexpectedly, this beautiful woman who looks so weak is even more cruel and terrifying than Xue Pingzhi.

"Alas!"

He let out a long breath, stood up, wiped the dust off his body, knelt down respectfully, and said in a solemn voice: "Subordinate Wu Guohua, only the sixth lady is from!"

Mu Yici opened her hands, and her long sleeves spread out at that moment, revealing her weak snow-white arms, and the majesty of a superior person suddenly emanated from her body, startling the soldiers of Siye, she only laughed in panic, her temperament was like a blade, and her demeanor was excellent, which made 80,000 soldiers feel chills in their hearts.

After a while, she stopped laughing, lifted her skirt and flipped into the chariot, groped for a moment on Xue Pingzhi's stiff corpse, took out a small talisman, and handed it to Wu Guohua.

"Wu Guohua, I order you to take Xue Pingzhi's place and obey my orders!"

"The last general obeys!"

Wu Guohua trembled his hands, respectfully caught the talisman, stood up from the ground, faced 80,000 soldiers, and held it high.

A group of soldiers picked up their weapons and raised them excitedly, shouting loudly: "General Wu, General Wu!"

If they choose between Xue Pingzhi and Wu Guohua, they will naturally support Wu Guohua as a general, not only because of his wisdom, but also because he is sympathetic to every soldier and has won the hearts of the people.

"The house of Mu has amassed a great deal of gold and silver treasures, and you have ordered them to be retrieved and used for the army's salaries and expansion, and distributed to everyone. In addition, the army stayed in Wuyi City and rested for three days. In the future, we will vigorously recruit troops and horses, concentrate on training elite soldiers, protect this frontier, and wait for my dispatch!"

Mu Yici waved his long sleeves and stood on top of the war horse, although he was wearing a light gauze cover, he was heroic and sassy. The soldiers raised their heads high, first shocked by the woman's beauty, and then attracted by her excellent temperament from the inside out. Although his eyes were hot, he didn't dare to raise a trace of blasphemy, just because the majesty of that woman was too powerful.

The Mu Yici they saw in their eyes seemed to be the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the east, a generation of strange women Xi Fengtian!

Wu Guohua heard Mu Yici's arrangement, his face was overjoyed, he had previously thought that Mu Yici was a daughter's family, with a vicious heart and cruel methods, but he was suddenly relieved at this moment. He knew that Mu Yici was extremely ambitious, not only would he be able to give both grace and power, but he would also be very good at buying people's hearts, but he was also extremely smart and had an amazing temperament, and his future prospects would be limitless. Such an extraordinary woman, why not follow her?

At this moment, he stood up straight, holding the talisman in his hand, his heart was full of gratitude, and he saluted Mu Yici respectfully with his fists. Fang Cai turned his gaze to the soldiers who were excited, raised his hand and pressed down, and said excitedly in a trembling voice: "Soldiers, people choose the king and the minister, and the bird chooses the good tree to perch." A line of blood on the military flag is the Xue family's disregard for the death of my 80,000 soldiers. The Sixth Lady is kind-hearted and saves us from the dire situation, and we will not forget our kindness and swear to follow the Sixth Lady to the death!"

Wu Guohua, as a military advisor for many years, is of course very sleek, Mu Yici gave him everything he wanted, and he naturally opened his mouth to show his sincerity to Mu Yici. The words were full of emotion, facing the ten thousand troops, and directly vented the "heartfelt words" in his heart, which led to the morale of the ten thousand troops, and they looked at Mu Yici on the chariot with admiration, and made their most valuable promise.

Li Wuchen didn't expect that he was kind enough to warn the remnants of the 80,000 soldiers, but he didn't want to be seen by Mu Yici, who was hiding on the city tower and watching, and used it to blackmail Wu Guohua into surrendering to Cheng, opening up a key step for her to seek power and usurp the throne.
