Chapter 148: Retreat and Separation

Zhu Quan was fortunate to have the armor to protect himself, so he was spared a bloody disaster, but his ribs were swept by Liu Dezhao's sword qi, and he was still in some unbearable pain. At this time, he looked at Brother Temu and the others who were far away, and the hatred in his heart was hard to disappear, and he said to Zhu Di very unwillingly: "Fourth brother, I am really unwilling to let go of these dogs like this, and letting them come and go like this is extremely unfavorable to the morale of the army." ”

Zhu Di sighed lightly and said: "Seventeenth brother, the eldest husband can only achieve great things if he can bend and stretch his way, if we kill Brother Temu's uncle and nephew at this time, we can only increase the hatred of tens of thousands of Mongolian troops outside the city, which is extremely unfavorable to the overall situation; ”

Zhu Quan was not a stupid person, he immediately understood the truth, and had to say hatefully: "I will definitely not let them go, sooner or later, one day I will personally lead a large army to level the Mongolian steppe and destroy the Ming Sect." ”

Zhu Di's eyes flashed, he didn't expect Zhu Quan to have such great ambitions in his heart, so he stretched out his hand and patted Zhu Quan on the shoulder and said, "Seventeenth brother said well, as long as our brothers work together, I believe that day will not be too long." ”

Before Zhu Di's words fell, he saw a war horse galloping from a distance, and the soldier immediately rolled over and jumped off without waiting for the war horse to stop, and the soldier hurriedly ran to Zhu Di and the two of them and knelt down on one knee, panting and said: "Qi Yu...... Qi Qi two princes, outside the city...... Out of town ......"

The soldier's tone was unrelenting, Zhu Quan suddenly felt anxious, he stepped up to the soldier and grabbed his collar, and asked loudly: "How is it outside the city, say it quickly!"

The soldier was so frightened by Zhu Quan that his face turned pale, and he was also a little anxious, so he quickly omitted the previous words and replied: "The Mongolian army has retreated." ”

"Retreat?" Zhu Quan was stunned, unconsciously let go of the soldier's collar, and looked at Zhu Di in disbelief, as if he wanted to find the exact answer from him.

Zhu Di's brain was also confused, the Mongols first raided, then assassinated, and now they want to retreat like this, which is really incomprehensible. "It can't be some conspiracy, right?" Zhu Di warned himself, and immediately said to Zhu Quan:

"Let's go, go to the city gate, and we'll see what the hell this Mongol is up to. After speaking, he raised his legs and walked to the city gate, and at the same time whispered to Dao Yan: "Master Lao Fu went to invite all the masters who helped last night to rest in the post house, don't be the slightest slack, just say that I, Zhu Di, will thank you in person after repelling the Mongols." ”

Dao Yan was embarrassed and covered in dust when he was chased and killed by Liu Ziming and Han Jing'er, but where could he take care of so much when the matter was urgent. Now when he heard Zhu Di's order, he immediately understood, and he responded in a low voice: "Yes." He quietly took a few steps back and walked towards Yiyun and the others.

Daning is the foundation of Zhu Quan's life, so he is even more concerned about the Mongols' every move, and now when he heard that Zhu Di was going to the city gate to watch the enemy in person, he was naturally very active, he hurriedly followed Zhu Di, while urging his men to lead the war horse, but he didn't notice Dao Yan's small movements.

Zhu Di and Zhu Quan led a group of generals and colonels to quickly climb to the top of the city, overlooking the Mongolian army camp, and saw a busy scene in the Mongolian army camp, countless Mongolian soldiers were hurriedly dismantling the military tents, and there were teams of cavalry moving away quickly. Of course, the Mongols did not relax their vigilance against the Ming army, and gathered nearly 10,000 cavalry outside the camp gate facing Daning City.

Zhu Quan frowned, and said to Zhu Di: "Fourth brother, do you want to send a soldier and horse to test the true intentions of the Mongols?"

Zhu Di still stared at the Mongolian army camp, only shook his head and said: "No, send someone to keep an eye on them, now the enemy is still strong and I am weak, for the time being, we had better not make any extraneous branches." ”

Zhu Quan nodded immediately, did not insist at all, but whispered Zhu Di's order.

Zhu Di's brows tightened, he really figured out why the Mengqu people would suddenly retreat in such a situation, and after thinking for a long time, he turned around and ordered everyone: "Let everyone strengthen their vigilance, in case the Mongols will repeat their plans to give us another surprise attack." ”

All the generals immediately responded in unison, and for a moment they forgot that this place was Daning, the territory of Zhu Quan, the king of Ning.

The morning sun hung far in the sky, the cold wind whimpered, and this morning seemed to be particularly cold, and even the dead grass on the side of the road was shivering.

Perhaps because of the urgency of the military situation, or perhaps because of his own identity, Temu Ge'er did not trouble Mitu and his party, and as soon as he left Daning City, he rushed back to the Mongolian army camp with Temu Dudu and others, which allowed Mitu and others to leave smoothly bypassing the Mongolian army camp.

Mi Tu followed closely behind Han Jing'er and Liu Ziming all the way silently, he didn't know how to persuade the two brothers and sisters in front of him, because everyone understood that no matter how warm words were at this time, it was difficult to soothe the pain of losing a loved one.

Not far away, people were still shouting and neighing, it was the Mongolian army evacuating. Mitu was very confused by this, he couldn't understand why the Mongols were so anticlimactic, they obviously had an absolute advantage, but they did not launch a decent attack on Daning, so they retreated in a panic.

"Could it be that Liu Ziming's strategy of attacking behind enemy lines has had an effect? But it won't work so quickly, right? What else will it be for?" Mi Tu made several ideas one after another, but they were all quickly denied by himself, he couldn't figure it out, so the surname Suo no longer thought about these problems. He raised his eyes and looked at Han Jing'er's red eyes, which were already a little swollen, and felt distressed again. He really wanted to walk forward quickly and hold Han Jing'er in his arms, so that she could cry happily and relieve the depression in her heart.

At this moment, Han Jing'er suddenly stopped and turned to face Mitu, and said with a cold face: "Mitu, don't follow anymore, go back." The tone was like the cold wind of early winter, very cold and ruthless.

Mi Tu's heart was shocked, and he looked at Han Jing'er in a daze, not knowing why she was like this.

Even Liu Ziming was confused for a while, he knew that Han Jing'er and Mi Tu had crossed the life and death barrier together several times, and the relationship between the two had long been beyond the promise of life and death. But what happened to Han Jing'er today? How could he treat Mi Tu like this? A deep worry couldn't help but gradually permeate his heart, and he couldn't help but whisper to Han Jing'er: "Jing'er, we are all very sad about the tragic death of Elder Taishang, don't ...... it."

But Liu Ziming's words were interrupted by Han Jing'er as soon as he was halfway through, and Han Jing'er still said with a cold face: "It has nothing to do with this, Brother Ziming, you protect Elder Taishang to take a step first, and I have a few words to say to Mitu." ”

Liu Ziming couldn't bear to glance at Han Jing'er, looking like he wanted to say something, but in the end, he sighed lightly, walked past Mitu's side and said to Mitu in a low voice: "Jing'er has been raised by Elder Taishang and Fu Bo since she was a child, and now she must be sad in her heart, no matter what she says for a while, don't believe it." ”

Mitu was very grateful for Liu Ziming's kindness, and immediately nodded and said, "Brother Ziming, don't worry, I will definitely handle it carefully." ”

Han Jing'er didn't seem to hear the two of them at all, and only looked at Mitu coldly and said nothing.

Liu Ziming glanced at Han Jing'er again without worry, and had to sigh again and leave slowly.

Mi Tu looked at Han Jing'er, who had a cold face, and still seemed to persuade a few words, considered the language, and said softly: "Jing'er, I know ......"

"You don't know!" Han Jing'er didn't seem to want to give Mitu a chance to speak at all, a deep pain flashed in her red and swollen beautiful eyes, and she categorically interrupted Mitu's words, and said: "Actually, we are people from two worlds at all, you have your way to go, and I have my bridge to cross, so let's just leave it alone, don't get entangled, it's not good for you and me." ”

Han Jing'er's words were very ruthless, but he was not angry at all after listening to it, he also vaguely guessed why Han Jing'er was like this, and the tiger's eyes were full of deep pity, and he looked at Han Jing'er with his eyes, and said very sincerely: "Jing'er, you know, we treat each other sincerely, there is no reason to hinder us, you don't want to be like this." ”

Mitu's sincerity made Han Jing'er even more heartbroken, but the tragic deaths of the two old men, Fu Bo and Liu Dezhao, deeply pierced her heart every time, making her feel that she was betraying and betraying the person closest to her, she was really a little difficult to choose, so she had to look up at the sky, hold back the tears rolling in her eyes, and said to Mitu: "You go, don't look for me again, from now on we have nothing to do with life and death." After speaking, Han Jing'er didn't dare to stop any longer, and quickly turned around and chased after Liu Ziming.

"Jing'er. There was love, pity, and deep reluctance in the call of the journey, so that Han Jing'er couldn't help but stop, but it was only a short moment. When Han Jing'er stepped again, her steps were fast, just like an injured milk swallow flying through the cold wind wasteland, and the figure of Xiao Suo quickly disappeared in the distance between heaven and earth.

The winter sun is rising, but it is still weak, and the cold wind is blowing, and it is bitterly cold.

Han Jing'er's sad eyes filled every inch of space in Mitu's heart, and the pretty face full of crystal teardrops was so lovable and pitiful, and even more so difficult to let go. He incorporated the crystal tears into his blood, and he knew that even if the two of them were far away from each other, their hearts would still be closely connected.

A deep self-reproach pervades Mitu's chest, and gradually turns into endless reluctance and melancholy, and how heavy Mitu's heart is at this time, that feeling is like thousands of mountains cramming this universe and making it difficult for people to breathe. He stared at the direction of Han Jing'er's disappearance for a long time, feeling that the last trace of strength had been drained from his body.

The road ahead is so confused and difficult, with no end in sight, but Mi Tu knows that he must go on, because he believes that he and she will definitely meet somewhere on the road ahead......

A long howl pierced the sky and the earth, there was sadness, resentment, and the courage not to admit defeat. (To be continued.) )
