Yang Xiang gave Cao Ying a slightly relieved smile back, as if she was relieved, "Senior sister, thank you, I will definitely work harder, if I meet him next time, I will have another competition with him." ”

Cao Ying seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said, "That's right, junior sister, you are the most talented among our sisters." ”

The corners of Yang Xiang's mouth rose slightly, "Senior sister, don't worry, I won't be defeated by a Yunxiang so easily." Senior sister, it's not early, we have to hurry tomorrow morning, let's go back to sleep early. Cao Ying also nodded in agreement, and returned to the room with Yang Xiang.

......

The next day's sunshine hung high, and the warm sunshine made the originally still cold weather no longer as cold, but the neighing sound of the war horses under the city wall still made the people of Liangzhou City not feel a trace of warmth at all, Bai Canghai stood on the city wall, looking down at the Tatars outside the city wall, and the Tuogu Er'er under the city wall came to the front with a horse, and said loudly to Bai Canghai on the city wall, "General Bai, I haven't seen you for many days, don't come unharmed." "Tuogu Yan'er's sentence is indeed not wrong, before Zhu Di decided to weaken Dongfang Yang's strength, the war in the northwest was in the hands of Bai Canghai alone, naturally there was little contact with the Tatars, and the friction between the two armies was indispensable on the border, and naturally the two of them were indispensable to meet each other; After Qiu Tianfang took over most of his military power in the northwest, there were naturally fewer such opportunities, although Tugu Tan'er's words were true, but Tugu Tan'er also inquired in advance that there was a shortage of soldiers and horses in this Liangzhou City, but because of Qiu Tianfang's 86,000 men and horses before, this Liangzhou City also had to pay attention to it, but thinking that the 86,000 people were not necessarily concentric with Bai Canghai, he thought of using this method to make them suspicious.

Who knew that Bai Canghai just smiled and replied in the same way, "General Tuogu, you've been very majestic lately, I just don't know what your shrinking head sweat has rewarded you with?"

Tuogu Tan'er is not as strategic as Bai Canghai, but Tugu Tan'er is a straightforward person, and the ones he is familiar with are just some art of war, but his research is also limited; at this time, Tugu Tan'er heard Bai Canghai insult his own Great Khan, his face was angry, and he waved the Tatar army behind him with his right hand, raised the bow and arrow in his hand, and aimed at the top of the city; and the Ming army on the other side did not show weakness, and a dense piece appeared at the head of the city, catapults, Flint and bows and arrows stood all over the city, and the two armies faced each other, although they had not yet clashed, but their every move was full of blood.

Tuogu knew that the other party occupied a favorable position, and the ambush from top to bottom was more threatening, so he simply stopped and asked the people behind him to put down their bows and arrows, and the anger on his face disappeared without a trace, but the smile on his face made people feel very awkward no matter how they looked at it, "General Bai, Tuogu is not here to fight today, but just wants to catch up with the general; why don't the general also go out of the city to meet with Tuogu and have a bowl together?"

How could Bai Canghai not know those tricks of Tuogu's son?" "General Tuogu, you and I have been unrighteous in the past, ruthless in recent days, there is no friendship to tell, if there is, only the lives of tens of millions of my Ming people have to be repaid by you, if General Tuogu wants to have a bowl of drink with him, it is better to wait until I have captured you, and then put a farewell banquet for you in my house." ”

As soon as Bai Canghai said this, how could the Tatars under the city walls give up? One by one, they were full of anger, and they just wanted to immediately capture this Liangzhou City, kill all the people of the Ming Dynasty in the city, capture Bai Canghai, who could only speak some big words, behead him for public display, and then hang his head high on the city wall, so that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty Lao'er could see; "General Bai, we Tatars kindly invite the general, since the general doesn't believe us, then forget it, the next time we meet, we will meet in arms. After speaking, Tuogu Tan'er did not stop at all, turned the horse's head, and said loudly to everyone, "Withdraw"

Bai Canghai on the city wall looked at the figure of the Tatar army moving farther and farther, and unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and a black flag envoy beside him whispered, "Admiral, should we chase?"

Bai Canghai made a gesture to stop and analyzed, "No, Tuogu Tan'er has obviously made arrangements before, wanting to trick us out of the city, so as to catch us all, although he has withdrawn now, but presumably he still arranged a lot of ambushes along the way, but I am afraid that if we chase us like this, we will only fall into his ambush." ”

......

"Old-timer?" In a courtyard, Xuanyuan Xiang was still dressed in the black veil, standing outside Fang Haoyan's door and knocking lightly.

"It's a virtuous nephew, come in. Fang Haoyan in the room listened to the voice as if he was much older, and sure enough, Xuanyuan Xiang pushed open the door, and when he walked into the house, he saw only an old man leaning on the edge of the bed, it seemed that Fang Haoyan was very difficult to even support it, but the moment he saw Xuanyuan Xiang, Fang Haoyan still wanted to struggle to sit up.

Xuanyuan Xiang saw it in his eyes, took the first step to Fang Haoyan's side, and supported the crumbling Fang Haoyan, "Senior, you lie down first, don't move." ”

Fang Haoyan first glanced at Xuanyuan Xiang gratefully, and gently stroked Xuanyuan Xiang's hands to support him, "Virtuous nephew, I asked your senior sister a few days ago, and she said that you are from Suzhou?"

Xuanyuan Xiang didn't know why, Fang Haoyan asked Shangguan Rou about some things about himself, but Shangguan Rou only said this one thing, although Xuanyuan Xiang felt that it was inappropriate, but he didn't investigate too much, and now Fang Haoyan asked again, Xuanyuan Xiang was not good at lying, so he had to nod.

"Yes...... But who knows, Fang Haoyan's next sentence said this name; for a while, Xuanyuan Xiang was stunned in place, although Xuanyuan Xiang had quickly returned to normal, but Xuanyuan Xiang knew that according to an old-timer like Fang Haoyan, his trick had already fallen into Fang Haoyan's eyes, and sure enough, Fang Haoyan at the next moment just smiled self-deprecatingly, as if he was talking to himself, "It seems to be." ”

Xuanyuan Xiang was still about to defend himself, but when he thought about it again, even if he said anything at this time, it would be in vain, plus this Fang Haoyan can also be regarded as an old-timer on the righteous path of martial arts, and it is rumored that this Fang Haoyan is the most jealous and hateful, so Xuanyuan Xiang unconsciously moved away from Fang Haoyan a few steps, and was waiting for Fang Haoyan to make a move, but what came was Fang Haoyan's more vicissitudes of life, "I didn't expect it, my Haoyan has been known as a giant of the righteous path of martial arts all his life, but when he is approaching the sixtieth year, he walks with the evil path of martial arts, sad, It's a pity, it's really the world. ”
