On the moon, the ten thousand Nanliang army came to Yongjia city a few miles away along the official road.
The cavalry, who had been galloping for a day and a night, were already tired, and each soldier's shadow was heavy.
Icarlo, of course, was well aware of this and hesitated to let the army rest for a while before proceeding. With the present state of the army, even if they rush to Yongjia City, I am afraid it is also very unfavorable to them.
At this time, a horse galloped towards this side. The scouts in front of him came back in a hurry. He dismounted and said, "general, you can hear the sound of the southern Xinjiang Army attacking the city three li ahead Listen to the sound, the army of Southern Xinjiang seems to be pounding the gate with its battering mallet! " The Scout swallowed and salivated, and his face was dignified.
As for Yongjia City, icarlo could not have known that it would not have been so easy if Yongjia city had not taken the initiative to open the gate to surrender.
Therefore, he was sure that even if there were not enough troops, Yongjia city could be kept for at least three or five days.
He didn't worry that Yongjia city would be captured so soon, but it was a good opportunity to sneak attack while the southern Xinjiang army was attacking the city.
When the time comes, the southern Xinjiang army will surely lose!
Icarus said to the scouts, "you guys, go ahead and find your way."
"Yes, marshal!" The scouts took command with their fists, then turned over and rode away.
Yi Kaluo's face was locked, and his fatigue was swept away. He ordered, "all the officers and men, hurry with me to support Yongjia city!"
The southern Xinjiang army must be caught off guard!
"Yes, marshal!" Ten thousand cavalry responded in unison and cheered up.
Icarlo raised his whip and pulled hard at the black horse under his hip. The black horse hissed in pain, let go of his hooves and began to accelerate.
The ten thousand cavalry behind him were also riding fast The sound of the horse's hooves became louder, like a series of sultry thunder, which kept ringing
After about three miles ahead, we heard shouts, weapons handover and the sound of pounding hammers hitting the gate of Yongjia city
Bang! Bang! Bang!
It seems that the scouts are right. The southern Xinjiang army is attacking the city!
Icarlo's face was full of ambition and a happy smile. As the whip was about to be pulled off again, something suddenly flashed into his mind. It seemed that something was wrong
By the way! The scouts who went to explore the way never came back!
Icarus felt a chill in his heart, and had a vague premonition. Is this a trap!?
The ten thousand cavalry I brought on this trip are the elite of Nanliang army. There must be no mistake
Icarus raised his hand and motioned for the army to slow down. Then he ordered, "send some more scouts to investigate..."
"Yes, marshal."
A dozen scouts rode to Yongjia City, while the army stayed at the same place to rest
At the moment, the time passed slowly. It was just a stick of incense, but it seemed like an hour later. Seeing that the scouts had not returned for a long time, Icarus had a more ominous premonition in his heart.
Suddenly, the soldiers beside him pointed to the front and yelled: "commander in chief, it's the scouts! The scouts are back
Ekaluo's eyes were bright, and his eyes were shining in the direction of the horses coming. He saw the scoundrel climbing on the brown horse in confusion, as if he were about to fall down at any time.
"Marshal! Commander in chief... " "It's a trap! Commander in chief, the scouts ahead are ambushed and all are destroyed. Only the villains escape by chance "Yongjia city has been captured by the southern Xinjiang Army!" the Scout said in a sweat as he dismounted in a hurry
How could it be?! Yikaluo's pupil shrinks sharply. In Yongjia City, it's easy to defend the difficult terrain. How could he be captured in one day and one night? What did Bamin tu do?!
Once Yongjia city was lost, most of the good situation they formed in southern Xinjiang was destroyed.
Ekaluo's chest heaved violently. If bamintu were in front of him at the moment, he would have cut the other party to pieces!
Icarus clenched his fist and soon calmed down.
Now, it's no use worrying about why Yongjia city was occupied!
At the moment, our soldiers are tired, so it is not suitable for us to confront the southern Xinjiang army.
Only retreat?!
Icarus was not reconciled. He clenched his teeth and squeezed out two words: "withdraw!"
At the command of icarlo, the army of Nanliang turned its direction again and sped away.
Tens of thousands of iron hooves are pounding the earth. The horses are faster and faster. The sound of horses' hooves is deafening and the dust is flying
There are two dark woods on both sides of the official road. The dense leaves block the moonlight outside. The dark one in the woods can't see five fingers. No one has noticed the twinkling eyes hidden in the woods.
Suddenly, a sharp whistle sounded, tearing the night sky.
Originally buried under the dust, the stumbling ropes were suddenly tightened by the people hiding in the woods, and the stumbling ropes rose up and just caught the horse's hooves.In front of them, nearly a thousand horses roared and soared into the air. Then they fell to the ground heavily, throwing the cavalry on their backs like sandbags. Some of them were even crushed under their bodies. Only the sound of the horse's neighing, people's scream, the sound of broken bones and the sound of impact were heard.
What's more terrible is the following chain reaction. Thousands of horses in the rear can't avoid or stop. They are tripped by the fallen horses in front of them. One after another, countless horses fall down like waves of waves on the beach
People shout, horse neigh, mixed up, chaos into a pot of porridge, the scene is very heroic, shocking.
Icarlo, who was in the front, was also thrown away by the horse's momentum. However, compared with the vast majority of soldiers in the rear, he had good luck. After rolling on the official road in confusion, he slowed down his momentum. Although his clothes and robes were stained with a lot of sand, and his face had a few more small abrasions, his body was safe and sound.
When he got up and looked back, his heart was cold. The thousands of horses and cavalry were lying on the ground, their armor was dyed bright red with blood, and the wounded horses were lying on the ground, whining bitterly
There are so many stumbling blocks buried here. It is obvious that they have been set up for a long time!
How could this happen?!
Scouts On the way to Yongjia City, the scouts went ahead of the army. But now, because the road has just passed and the retreat is urgent, there is no longer any arrangement for scouts to explore the way. So, is that why the prince of Zhennan chooses to attack at this time?
Is it from yandingcheng to ask for help, this step by step, a bureau All of this is the plot of the king of Zhennan, and he was foolishly caught in the scheme?!
As if answering the question in Icarus's heart, a disorderly walk, mixed with shouts of killing, came from the woods not far behind.
"Go
"Kill!"
Countless armed forces in armor and wielding long knives poured out from the deep forest like a rainbow. The roar of killing was like the roar of a beast, resounding through the earth, and the murderous spirit was overwhelming
The two armies fought frantically, with shields colliding and long swords interlaced. The official road became a battlefield for the two armies to fight against each other. The shouts of Ma Si people were heard everywhere, and the soldiers were covered with hot blood.
The ground was covered with death and injury, and blood was streaming.
Within a moment, blood flowed everywhere.
As a commander-in-chief, icarlo was naturally unhurt under the protection of a crowd of soldiers.
He clearly understood that the war situation was not good for his side. Just now, two or three thousand troops were damaged by the fall of horses, and the remaining 7000 troops were against nearly 10000 troops of the upper Southern Xinjiang army. It was not so easy for the other side to take them down.
However,
the southern Xinjiang army is full of energy and has been well rested. However, after a day and night's March, people are tired and almost at the end of their strength. Once the battle goes on for a long time, the fatigue of the Nanliang army will be exposed.
But now the front is blocked, and the rear is Yongjia city occupied by the southern Xinjiang army. Of course, I can't throw myself into the net. There are wolves in front and tigers in the back
No, I still have a way to live!
The map of Southern Xinjiang flashed through his mind, and his spirit was refreshed, and he gave orders to the soldiers beside him.
The soldier immediately waved the flag vigorously and gave orders to the officers and men with the flag language.
The army of Nanliang moved quickly. Those with or without horses rushed into the woods on the right side of the official road like a tide. Although the woods were not conducive to marching, they were natural barriers and were not conducive to the enemy's pursuit.
But the woods were not icarlo's ultimate goal.
According to icarlo's memory, there is a large area of hills in the southwest of Yongjia City, with dense forests and ups and downs. Once they occupy that hill as the commanding height, they can take a commanding position, observe the enemy's situation and suppress the enemy, thus controlling the initiative of the battlefield, and finding breathing space for the army
That hill is their life!
"Drive!" Yikaluo, on his horse, took the lead, followed by Nanliang army.
Soon, the green hills appeared in front of us, and the moonlight gently lit up the road ahead
Icarus was pleased at first, but then he held his horse tightly and looked up at the hills in disbelief.
Dozens of feet away, a large black army of Southern Xinjiang stood in front of them. Black banners embroidered with silver characters were fluttering in the night wind, making bold and wanton!
A pair of black crossbows, like a dense swarm of bees, aimed at the Nanliang army below.
"Those who do not surrender will be killed without mercy."
The soldiers of the southern Xinjiang Army waved their banners and yelled. The shouts soared into the sky and echoed in the sky. They could not disperse
……
……
"Poulin pouleng..."
The sound of the bird flapping its wings made the young man in green suddenly open his eyes. A piece of gray feather fluttered around and fell down. It happened to land on the tip of Xiao Si's nose, which made him almost sneeze.As he picked up the gray feather, he sat up with a wink from the corner of his eye.
That arrogant grey Eagle again!
The eagle fights the human potential. It knows that it dare not do anything about it, does it?!
Small four lips pursed into a straight line, planning to avoid the young master one day to teach the eagle a good lesson.
"Poulin pouleng..."
Another sound of birds flapping their wings accompanied by a loud and clear cry of eagles came. The little four squinted slightly and looked at the past.
Just in front of the bamboo forest above, a gray hawk hovered in the blue sky, but little four's eyes fell on a white dove in front of it. The poor white dove struggled to flutter its wings and ran for his life, while the gray Eagle seemed to be playing with it. For a while, he gently pecked at the wings of the white pigeon, and then deliberately lagged behind a little bit. He watched the white dove running for his life in front of him
Of course, that gray eagle is Xiao Yi's little gray!
Xiao Si's whole face is black.
The carrier pigeons raised by the young master are marked. When the fourth child takes a look, he knows that it is his own carrier pigeon.
If there is a master, there must be an eagle. This stupid Eagle has bullied their carrier pigeons!
Xiao Si walked quickly on the tiles, and then flew down towards the bamboo forest without hesitation, like a roc spreading its wings.
His light fingertip is on a thick bamboo pole. The bamboo pole bends out a beautiful curve in the other direction, and then rebounds back. Xiao Si uses his strength to fly towards the white dove, grabs it with his right hand, and embraces another bamboo pole beside him with his left hand. The bamboo pole shakes and shakes in the air, shaking down a large bamboo leaf and forming a green one Ye Yu
"Susu..."
The sound of bamboo leaves shaking and Xiao Hui's unwilling hawk chirp are intertwined. Xiao Hui turns half a circle above Xiao Si, as if complaining about why Xiao Si wants to grab its toys.
Xiao Si gave it a bad look. He didn't care about it. He grabbed the pigeon in his right hand and slid down the bamboo pole. He landed on the ground lightly.
On weekdays, he took off the small bamboo tube tied to the carrier pigeon's leg, and would let the carrier pigeon go. But at the moment, Xiao Hui was still staring at him from a distance, and Xiao Si simply carried the white pigeon into the house.
In the study, Guan yubai sat on a rosewood armchair by the window. He was wearing a simple straight Lake color. His black hair was tied up with ribbons of the same color. He was slowly trimming a pot of evergreen branches and leaves with a pair of scissors in his hand.
Breeze blowing in through the window, blowing a wisp of black hair on his cheek, the hair tail in the corner of his mouth that light smile, quiet and beautiful.
"Click, click..."
In the room, only the scissors make a little noise from time to time. It is obviously monotonous and almost boring, but I don't know why it sends out a kind of quiet and comfortable feeling.
In fact, Xiao Si doesn't know what the young master is repairing. In his opinion, even if the bonsai is not pruned, the bonsai will grow very well. However, the young master said that only by cutting off the unnecessary miscellaneous branches and dead leaves, can the pruning plant grow better
At that time, the young master said that he was pruning potted plants, but I don't know why Xiao Si felt that he meant something.
"Goo Goo..."
Carrier pigeons in his hands to coo restlessly, small four quickly took down the small bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's leg, and then said: "young master, Xiao Shizi's carrier pigeon has arrived."
Official language white should a, "click wipe" a sound, and pruned a branch and leaf.
He looked at it, and his smile deepened. Then he put the scissors beside the bonsai and wiped his hands with a white towel. Then he took over the bamboo tube, opened the wax and took out the silk paper folded into strips.
The long and white fingers of the official language spread the silk paper.
The plan began with the discovery of Nanliang people in Maofeng town. The nine kings were released and the divine arm camp was ordered to ambush in Linghua gorge. It was not only to attack Nanliang army who had gone to meet him, but only to infiltrate Yongjia city in the name of remnant soldiers.
The commander of Nanliang and his army were transferred by the nine kings, and they were in harmony with the outside. First they captured Yongjia City, then ambushed the commander of Nanliang who came back. Finally, they attacked Huiling city on both sides and killed yandingcheng
Plan to plan, can progress so smoothly, rely on the bravery of Yi! Otherwise, it's just on paper.
Xiao Si doesn't need to ask. Looking at the smiling eyes of the young master, he knows that this must be good news - it seems that he has won the battle!
Official language white and silk paper folded back, handed to the fourth: "send to Bixiao hall."
Xiao Si answers, is about to turn around to leave, but hears a familiar hawk cry outside the window.
He stopped at his feet and looked out of the window. Sure enough, the stupid Eagle stopped on the branch outside the window, and the cold and sharp eyes of the eagle were staring at it. No, it should be said that it was the carrier pigeon in his hand.
A person and an eagle stare at each other for a long time. Finally, Xiao Si moves first and closes the carrier pigeon into the cage of the study, and then walks away without expression.
Official language white laughingly shook his head, and picked up the scissors on the side, a knife and a knife slowly cut down.Knife after knife, so careful, as if he is facing is not a small pot of evergreen, but a priceless treasure
After a while, the secret letter sent by Xiao Si quickly passed by Baihui's hand to Bixiao hall.
Nangong Yue almost trembled to open the thin silk paper, the corners of his mouth unconsciously cocked up.
Yi is safe in front of him, and he has recovered Yongjia city and Yanding city one after another!
Nangong Yue gazed at the few words on the silk paper, smiling like a crescent moon in his dark pupil.
Nangong Yue couldn't help looking at the letter again and again. It seemed that there was a sweet breeze passing through his heart, and his eyes were bright.
"Baihui..." Nangong Yue put away the silk paper and said with a smile, "the great victory of the son of heaven is a happy event. Go and tell the cashier that the whole family will give you a silver naked son!"
A few big servant girls on one side looked at each other and could not help laughing. The princess is very happy.
Baihui blessing body, said with a smile: "the slave maid for the house up and down thank the princess." After a pause, she joked, "but I think it's better to wait a few days for the good news to come."
Nangong Yue was stunned. A shy smile appeared on his face. He cleared his throat and said, "let's talk about it in a few days." She was so excited that she forgot that the official good news had not come. Also, it is not appropriate to make too much publicity now.
"Yes, princess." The three servant girls answered in unison and looked at each other with a smile.
Princess Shizi has always been calm and calm. Maybe only when it comes to shiziye, can you see the different side of shizifei. In fact, it's not bad After all, the princess is only 15 years old.
Nangong Yue was still a little excited. She did not know what to do. She folded the silk paper carefully and put it into a small box made of red sandalwood. Suddenly, she had an idea and said excitedly, "Baihui, call me the people from the cloth shop tomorrow. I want to pick some materials for Shizi, make some clothes and make two pairs of shoes..."
The weather in southern Xinjiang is really sultry. She forgets that it's mid September. It's autumn soon. She has to make some new clothes for a Yi!
Baihui answered with a smile, and the thrush said with a smile: "princess, I'll take the soles for you. Although the maid was clumsy and not good at embroidery, the soles of the shoes were quite good. Sister Baihui and sister magpie have praised the maid
Magpie son in one side teases a way: "that is not you take good, is your strength is big enough." It's hard work to get the sole of shoes. When thrush was a child, she used to do farm work at home, and her strength was much greater than that of ordinary girls.
Nangong Yue and Baihui were both amused. The laughter overflowed in the room, and the atmosphere was brisk.
Nangong Yue thought of what, and said: "magpie, you go to listen to the rain pavilion to see if the guests are still there?" Nangong Yue plans to tell old master Fang the good news of the great victory ahead before the good news comes. He must be very happy to know that Yi won the battle.
Today, it's a bit unfortunate that old master Fang happened to have a visitor there. In order to celebrate the birthday of the king of Zhennan, the four rooms of the Fang family just arrived in Luoyue city yesterday. So today, the four elders of the Fang family came to Bixiao hall to visit him.
"Yes, princess." Magpie took orders to listen to the rain Pavilion.
As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, a servant girl immediately welcomed him and called fondly, "sister magpie."
Magpie son and small servant girl said hello with smile, then asked: "is the guest still there?"
The little servant girl looked back subconsciously and said, "it's still in there."
Magpie's eyebrows wrinkled slightly. As far as she knows, Fang's four rooms and a party came more than an hour ago. After chatting for such a long time, should it be almost right? It's not that she wants to drive away guests, but in the physical condition of old master Fang, it's not suitable to be tired.
Magpie looked into the room from a distance along the little servant girl's sight. In addition to the old master Fang, there was an old man, a middle-aged man and a seven or eight year old boy in the hall.
The old man is over 60 years old, and his hair is gray. He looks very kind. It seems that he must be old master Fang Si at this age.
From magpie's distance, we can't hear what the people in the room are saying, but it's not good to see the fake smile on their faces.
Magpie looked at them for a long time, and wished he could speak his lips.
"Elder brother," old master Fang Si stroked his beard. Thinking that elder brother had just been vague about the matter of succession, he was not very happy in his heart. However, considering that the adoption can not be achieved in one day or two, the next thing is the key to his visit today.
Thinking of this, Mr. Fang Si deliberately stopped for a moment, and then he hesitated and said, "I have one more thing to discuss with elder brother It's about our Fang family. "
Old master Fang said politely, "if you have a word, you can say it directly."
Old master Fang Si rationalized his thoughts and said in a low voice: "elder brother, the prince's house and our Fang family have gone further and further in the past year. Now my niece is not in favor of the Lord. I think we should find a way to enhance the friendship between the two families..." His niece refers to Xiao Fang.In the end, old master Fang si still wanted to have a face. His words were quite implicit, but the implication was clear.
Old master Fang was not a fool. He understood it immediately, and his face almost didn't stretch. Wang Fu and Fang Fu go farther and farther?! Ridiculous, ridiculous! Isn't Xiao Yi, Xiao Luan and Xiao Fei the best flesh and blood relationship between Wang Fu and Fang Fu?
An ironic light flashed in old master Fang's eyes. On that day, the third room made such a scandal. He sent for the fourth younger brother to come over to rectify the family tradition, but he did not see anyone coming. Now he came uninvited!
He has been paralyzed on the couch for so many years. He has already changed things and people. His brothers are not the same people in those years One by one, they are all interested in interests!
Seeing that Mr. Fang didn't answer the question, Mr. Fang Si's face froze for a moment, and he said in his heart: his words are so white. Isn't it that elder brother has been lying for so many years and become stupid?
Old master Fang Si took a sip of the tea cup, and finally managed to resist the embarrassment and said, "elder brother, you are the father-in-law of the king, and also the grandfather of a Yi. You can speak well in front of Wang Ye and a Yi..." After a pause, he said, "for the future of the Fang family, it's better to marry a girl from the Fang family again and go into the palace to be a concubine for the prince or Yi Of course, it's better to give it to Yi. "
Old master Fang didn't speak, and his heart had sunk to the bottom. If he is so bold and shameless, his fourth younger brother is willing to export.
Old master Fang Si didn't notice the displeasure on his face. He continued: "elder brother, a Yi has been in Wangdu all these years, and he has been completely estranged from Fang family. Yi's son and concubine came from the capital of the king. Naturally, she went to her mother's family. Her grandchildren, no matter in blood or kinship, would only become more and more distant from the Fang family. Only the girls of the Fang family and the fangs are united, and the Zhennan Wangfu and the fangs will be close to each other from generation to generation... "
