The night was quiet, the autumn wind was sizzling, and the atmosphere in the courtyard was slightly condensed.
"Ai, I remember that Sun Shoubei died of martyrdom?" The mandarin interjected and asked.
"Not bad."
Speaking of the war between the two countries, Xiao Yi's face was consistently inattentive, with a straight face, a little dignified expression in his expression, and he said slowly-
In May of this year, Nanliang sent tens of thousands of troops to Baiyue and attacked Yongjia City and Dengli City successively. The two cities fell to Nanliang in less than two days of defense. The two cities fell to the enemy with a thunderbolt. After that, the army of Nanliang was even more morale-boosted, and the army was going north all the way, and the 20,000 troops were under the defense and came to the city to declare war on Yanding City.
After the generals in the city learned that Yongjia City and Dengli City had surrendered to Nanliang, the army was also disbanded. Nearly half of the soldiers proposed to use Yanding City’s existing 5,000 troops to fight Nanliang’s 20,000 troops. .
However, guarding Sun Xiuneng was unyielding and swearing to die. He also pointed out that Yanding City, Yongjia City, Dengli City and Huiling City were the defense lines in the southeast of South Xinjiang. Once Yanding City descended to Nanliang, Huiling City would be alone. It may lead the Nanliang Army to take down the Huiling City and connect the four cities to the front line.If so, southern Xinjiang is in danger, and when the iron hoofs of the barbarous aliens go north, occupy our country, and kill my people, then they will become southern Xinjiang and become the sinners of the entire Dayu!
Sun Xiueng resolutely stated that even if this battle will be defeated, he must drag on the Nanliang Army for a few days to win time for Huiling City to seek help!
So, under the call and leadership of Sun Xiuneng, 5,000 defenders and civilians in the city participated in the defense of the city with all their hearts and minds. They resisted for three days and three nights and fought until the last breath. After all, they could not withstand the siege of 20,000 troops in Nanliang. Five thousand soldiers left less than three hundred...
In this tragic atmosphere of depression and sorrow, even Xiao Yi's voice seemed somewhat vicissitudes: "The sons of the Sun family have fought hard and died, and Sun Xiuneng slayed his sword on the wall when the city broke, and his wife and grandson After hearing the news of the city breaking, the wives and girls of the wife and the Sun family were all martyrdom in the garrison house..."In order to avoid being humiliated by the enemy, life is better than death!
Even if these things have not been witnessed in person, but it sounds so tragic, everyone's expressions are solemn, as if the temperature around them has dropped a lot.
"After Yanding City was recovered, Li Shoube ordered people to clean up the Manchurian Mansion. He found the body of a scarred two-year-old boy in a dry well in the backyard. His body was rotten, just from his clothes, roughly It can be judged that Sun Xiuneng's two-year-old son-in-law's grandson is also his only grandchild..." As he said, Xiao Yi couldn't help but sigh.
Fu Yunhe interfaced: "Jing Qian and Sun Shoubei have been friends for many years. Before they found the body of Sun's grandson, they thought that Sun's family might still have an incense stick in the world. They all died together with the city... and only Miss Sun escaped." He frowned slightly, his expression dignified.
Han Qixia couldn't help but interjected: "So just... the Sun family is now only left with the girl..."
Han Qixia knew that Sun Xinyi was the eldest daughter of Sun’s family, her parents died, and she knew that many of her relatives were affected by the war, but she did not expect Sun Xinyi’s situation to be even worse than she thought...
Everyone in the world renews the incense. Sun Xiuneng now has only one daughter, and the Sun family has broken the incense.
In the discourse, the courtyard was quiet again, and everyone felt quite heavy.
Only the white expression in the official language was faint, and he suddenly asked: "The grandson of the Sun family is dying in the well. What about the other people in the Sun family?"
Fu Yunhe thought hard about it, and remembered to hear Jing Qian always mention it, and said: "Mrs. Sun gathered with her daughter-in-law, daughter, and aunts in the main hall of the garrison, hanging beams to kill themselves. Hou Ye, what's the problem?"
Guan Yubai picked up the white porcelain cup in front of him, took a sip of tea, and said calmly: "The Sun family died in the main hall, but his elder grandson died alone in the dry well..."
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows, looking thoughtfully at Mandarin, with a pair of peach eyes narrowed.
Nangong Yue thought: "Ms. Sun only left her long grandson when she took the family to hang herself. It should be for the Sun family to leave a bloodline, but the long grandson did not escape this disaster, but died in a dry well... ...Did Mrs. Sun leave no reliable person to look after him?" She always felt something was wrong.
"The deceased is gone." Han Qixia sighed. "It's just a pity for the girl Sun, but now she is alone and helpless."
There was a moment of silence in the yard. The mandarin spoke first, but the words turned sharply and said, "Ai, are you going to release grain tomorrow?"
Xiao Yi nodded: "The notice to release grain was posted yesterday."
In Yanding City, the original rules for releasing grain were to release a batch of grain and grass each time, but Mandarin Bai felt that he could not better control the stored grain in the city. After a close discussion with Xiao Yi, the two decided, In the future, instead of releasing grain every five days, the new rules will be implemented tomorrow.
Of course, Fu Yunhe also knew the new rules and pondered: "This batch of grain and grass is estimated to be enough for Yanding City to last more than last month." Then, his tone revealed a bit of smugness, tomorrow The batch of food to be put was taken back by the soldiers of the one thousand God Arm Battalion from the Nanliang people again. Like the first time, the God Arm Battalion did not die in battle. This alone is enough for Fu Yunhe to be proud of for a long time!
Nangong Yue smiled slightly and said cheerfully: "Ai, I will help tomorrow too?" It was when Yanding City was short of staff. Since she came, she couldn't come here in vain, hoping to help Xiao as much as possible. Yi handles the affairs in the city and resolves his worries.
"Yue'er, there's nothing wrong with the injured barracks recently. I'll help you with it." Han Qixia responded in a hurry.
Xiao Yi has never understood how to refuse Nangong Yue. He really wants to be with his stinky girl all the time, but he hasn't been able to take the time recently...
"Xiaohezi," Xiao Yi thought about it and turned to Fu Yunhe. "Tomorrow you will also help your sister-in-law, and... by the way, they also call Xiaofanzi." , So he will not be tired of his stinky girl.
Xiao Yi didn't say clearly, but secretly gave Fu Yunhe a wink.
How Fu Yunhe didn't understand Xiao Yi's intentions was naturally based on the order of his elder brother.
As soon as his voice fell, he heard Lin Jingchen greet him: "Hurry up and eat. The dishes are going to be cold, and it’s not too late to say anything..."
Han Qixia smiled embarrassedly, it was because of her that she disturbed everyone's interest in eating.In another day, she still wants to make a hearty meal to compensate everyone.
Everyone took the chopsticks chopsticks again. Although the food was a bit cold, they still ate with relish.
Guan Yu looked back at Xiaoyu, who was still focused on feeding Han Yu, and the smile on his face was more gentle.
The fourth grade was devoted, and did not care about Xiao Yi what they just said...
Although Han Yu in the basket was as thin and pitiful as a chicken, she ate raw meat with a fierce posture, swallowing a diced meat in one bite, hungry and thirsty, as if she had not eaten for a long time.
The prevailing side looked straight and yawned. He picked up a diced meat boringly, threw it to Han Yu without warning, and deliberately missed an inch, but just as the diced flew in front of the tender eagle's beak , Han Yu suddenly turned her head, "Ah" swallowed.
Seeing Xiao Si glared at him, he sighed without saying anything, "Han Yu really is a head eagle!" As he said, his eyes rolled round and quibble, "Xiao Si, Han Yu is Head eagle, don't treat it as a chicken! ... It is difficult for domesticated eagles to fly!"
His sentence is almost cruel, but it is a fact.
The eagle still needs to throw the kitty off the cliff and let it learn to fly. It can be seen that the "flying" level is the true adult gift for the eagle!
Either become an eagle, or just become a chicken.
Little Four also understood the truth, frowning and silent.
At this time, Lily couldn't help but came over, and grabbed a handful of minced meat to feed Han Yu, without a good air: "Primary four, don't care about it. Han Yu, how small this is! ... Besides, there is little gray Now, you are still afraid that Han Yu can't fly!" Anyway, they have raised an eagle, OK?
Seeing Han Yu eat with relish, Lily looked at the last piece of diced meat in his hand, fixed his eyes inquisitively, and asked casually, "What kind of meat is this?" It doesn't look like pork or horse meat, Beef, rabbit...not chicken...
The little four answered without expression: "Rat."
The two words made Lily almost jump up, shook his hands in disgust, and lost the diced meat in his hands.what!She hates mice, maggots, this kind of shady thing...
Xiao Si glanced at Lily lightly. Now Yanding City is at a time when there is a shortage of food and food. He can’t feed the eagle with food. Of course, he catches mice. He also specially picked cold meat for Han Yu. Mouse.
Almost at the same time, a gray shadow flashed by Lily's side, and Little Gray swooped down from the air, holding the piece of meat in one bite.It didn't eat it by itself, but stopped by Han Yu to feed it, just like a mother bird feeding a young bird.
Ahhhh—
Han Yu swallowed.
By the time Han Yu had finished eating a bowl of diced meat, Xiao Yi and they had already swept away the food on the table, as clean as if they had washed it. Chen, some tea on the side.
There is no good tea in Yanding City. These teas are made by Lin Jingchen with various herbs. It is best for digesting and sleeping.
While drinking tea, everyone looked at this scene, and the mood became full of joy...
After drinking tea, the night sky was already dark, and the willows were on the moon.
Everyone said goodbye to Lin Jingchen and Han Qixia, and went back to their respective residences.
Nangong Yue and Xiao Yi also returned to their house, and as for Xiao Hui, they ran with Han Yu again.
After Nangong Yue bathed and changed clothes, Xiao Hui still showed no signs of coming back. Lily couldn't help but complained again, and then retreated with Bai Hui.
Nangong Yue only found it funny, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and smiled, "Ai, it seems that you really found a little wife for Xiao Hui."
She winked at Xiao Yi funnyly through the bronze mirror. Xiao Yi likes to see Nangong Yue's smile because of him, and likes to see her smile from the heart, so that he can't help but feel excited, a pair of peach eyes Laugh like a meniscus.
He also blinked deliberately, and then said: "That's, my eyes, do you still need to say?" His eyes were scorching, showing off a bit, showing a bit, as if to say, look, I was a few years ago I just picked myself such a good young wife, and her vision is one-of-a-kind!
Nangong Yue didn't know him today, how could you not read his eyes, his heart was sweet, and there was a slight blush on his cheeks, feeling a little embarrassed, standing up, avoiding the pair of black lights in the bronze mirror Eyes that made her almost afraid to look straight.
Xiao Yi took the opportunity to step forward, wrapped her slim waist from behind, and pressed her chin against her shoulder. She smiled again and said: "Smelly girl, why don't you answer my question?"
His warm breath blew on her earlobe, as if adding a fire, the faint blush on her cheek spread and blinked more red, even her earlobe became red and glamorous.
She is like a half-open flower, and it will soon bloom completely...
Xiao Yi couldn't help but look dumbfounded, and his heart was fiery.
Nangong Yue did not know Xiao Yi's thoughts, and tried to suppress the thumping heartbeat, took a deep breath, and said: "I think my vision is better!" As she said, she couldn't help but curled her lips high, lips A shallow pear vortex escaped.
How fortunate she is to have the chance to come back again; how lucky she is to find people who share her heart among hundreds of millions of people!
Xiao Yi stood stunned in the same place for a while, but did not react for a while, but the smile on his face had already flooded like a river that broke the embankment, and his heart was full of emotion.
He wrapped Nangong Yue's slim waist even harder and buried his face in her shoulders.
"Ayue..." He called her name softly, like a feather brushing her heart, and his voice was a little vague because of the gesture he buried on her shoulder, "I lost..."
Nangong Yue was stunned, didn't understand what he meant, and turned to look at him. The next moment, he saw him raise his head, the peach blossom eyes shining with water met her, and gave her a charming look. Tao: "You can speak sweet words like this, I have to work harder!"
Nangong Yue froze again, and then couldn't help laughing with a chuckle.
With Ayi, she is always so happy!
Suddenly, Xiao Yi's voice became a little deep, with a firm tone of voice, and said, "Ayue, I will be home soon!"
He will repel Nanliang, he will protect their home, he will go back to meet her peacefully!
Nangong Yue turned around and took the initiative to wrap around his waist, burying his face in his chest, he said: He is so humble.Compared with him, she is so far away...
Unconsciously deep at night...
Early the next morning, when Nangong Yue woke up, her side was already empty, and Yu Wen was not there.
It was because she was really tired yesterday, so she slept so deeply that she did not know when Xiao Yi left.
Bai Hui and Lily heard the movements in the house and went in to serve Nangong Yue and get up.
Nangong Yue sat up and found a white piece of cloth in her hand. When she saw the rough edge of the cloth, she was cut with a knife...
Nangong Yue was still a little sleepy, and suddenly came awake.
Bai Hui and Lily also saw it, and the two sisters glanced at each other, could it be that Shi Ziye pressed the sleeve of Shi Ziye, and Shi Ziye was reluctant to wake up Shi Ziye, so she had to cut off one sleeve?
Lily's eyes were shining, but she thought that Shi Ziye was such a considerate person. When she went back, she had to teach her family Alan Duo to follow Shi Ziye!
Who thought, Nangong Yue said: "Not the sleeves."
Xiao Yi's middle clothes were all cut and sewed by her own hands. She knew what materials she used.The piece of cloth in her hand should be one that Xiao Yi didn't know where to cut it, and stuffed it in her hand.
Lily glanced closer, and sure enough, it was just the simplest cotton cloth.
She was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized: "Also, the coat you made, Princess Shizi, was not willing to cut it!"
Nangong twitched a corner of his mouth, and Lily was right.
Lily couldn't help but asked again: "Sister-in-law, why did the grandfather put a piece of cloth in your hands?"
Nangong Yue smiled and said nothing, and got up and said, "Wait for me to dress up."
She pursed her lips with a smile and held the white cloth in her palm, unwilling to put it down.She knew that Ayi was telling her that he was reluctant to wake her, but he had to leave first.
Early in the morning, Nangong Yue was in a good mood and full of energy, and yesterday's fatigue was swept away.
Halfway through the hour, she and Han Qixia set off from the defense house, and Fu Yunhe worked diligently as a flower ambassador for the two.
When they arrived near the city gate, it was not yet time.In the blue sky, the sun hung high, and the sun shone warmly.
Far away, I saw that there were already several people busy by the gate.Nowadays, most people in the city do not have a livelihood. The army of the South Xinjiang often hires some people to help repair the city walls, dismantle the walls and transport the bricks, and build the urn city.
At the moment, four or five women wearing coarse cloth dresses are setting up some tables and chairs. They also installed a simple pergola with bamboo poles as the frame, and a huge stone-blue oil cloth as the roof to cover the upper part. Sun.
Nangong Yue and Han Qixia subconsciously slowed down the horse speed, and at a glance saw a familiar figure among the women in front of the helpers.
It was a fifteen-six-year-old girl, wearing a simple cyan dress, and the dark cyan simply saved a copy, except for a few cyan ribbons, and no jewelry.Her dress looked like an ordinary civilian woman, but looking at her elegant manners and beautiful face, it seemed incompatible with the other women around and this simple pergola.
After Nangong Yue and Han Qixia dismounted, they walked side by side, and Han Qixia shouted to the familiar slender figure: "Miss Sun!"
Sun Xinyi turned around, and at the moment when he saw Nangong Yue and Han Qixia, his face was obviously surprised, and then he stepped forward a few steps, wishing to bless and salute, but Bai Hui was quickly stopped by his eyes, and Nangong Yue smiled slightly. : "Miss Sun, I'm traveling in casual clothes today, so I don't have to pay more."
Sun Xinyi was not unfamiliar, and immediately changed her mouth: "Mrs. Xiao and Ms. Han, I didn't expect the two of you to come." Her attitude is neither humble nor overbearing, making people feel like a breeze in the morning.
After a pause, she took the initiative to explain: "I happened to hear people saying that Shi Ziye is going to release food today, thinking that anyway, I will be free to do nothing, it is better to come over and do something for the people in the city..."
"Miss Sun, you really have a heart..." Han Qixia nodded slightly in agreement.
Yeah, instead of thinking about it at home alone, you might as well keep yourself busy.I remembered that when I first arrived in southern Xinjiang, I was sleepless at night. It was the grandfather who let her free herself from her self-satisfaction, and the grandmother could understand this.
Before Han Qixia's words fell, he heard a sound of horseshoes coming from behind and stepped on...
Everyone looked at it soundly and saw that two handsome young men were pushing their horses towards this side and ran all the way. In fact, this street was wide enough for four or five horses to run side by side, but the two horses were really fast and surprised. Several passers-by subconsciously avoided both sides of the street.
Immediately, the two teenagers were all smiling, but the other had a black face. It was Yu Xiufan and Chang Huaixi.
Yu Xiufan's black horse stopped suddenly three or four feet away, his two front hooves raised high, and the horse hissed.Yu Xiufan's riding was very clever. He turned over with a blushing heart and jumped from the horse. He strode forward and gave a fist with a smile: "Sister-in-law, Han girl, sorry, we came a step late."
Chang Huaixi was a step slower than him and followed him forward, his face still not very good-looking. He quickly glanced at Bai Hui behind Nangong Yue.Of course he still remembers Bai Hui...
A few months ago, the scene in Luoyue City seemed to be still in sight.
