Xiao Tiange knew that a battle with Xixiong was inevitable, but she just didn't take the initiative to fight now. It's not that Xiao Tiange didn't want to attack at this time, it was just because the soldiers she brought over were all people who grew up in the south.
We arrived in this northwest place, and it happened to be winter. The weather was cold and freezing, so the combat effectiveness of the soldiers who were not accustomed to the northwest weather would naturally be greatly reduced.
Now there is only a stalemate between the two armies, and there will be another fierce battle until next spring.
Seeing that the new year is approaching, neither she nor the military officers and soldiers can go home to reunite with their families, which is inevitably a bit regretful.
However, Xiao Tiange has never been a stingy person, and she has always adhered to her view that money can never be earned, so when it is time to take action, she cannot be stingy.
A few days ago, Yuyang City received its first heavy snowfall this winter. White snow fell from the sky like goose feathers and fell in thin air.
I had long heard that wild beasts often appeared in the big ravine on the outskirts of Yuyang. After recuperating for a long time, Xiao Tiange felt itchy and unbearable.
Because Luo Muyu's father was in poor health, seeing that the battle could not be fought for the time being, Xiao Tiange sent him home to visit his father.
And she also thought about the fact that she had stayed in Yuyang City for more than a few months and that the new year was approaching, so she couldn't help but think of her mother and father.
So Yueying sent one person back to the palace to visit his mother and father. He also wrote a letter home to Bai Zelan, telling him that everything was fine and there was no need to worry.
Of course, in this Yuyang, Xiao Tiange eats and drinks well every day, and has a handsome man by his side all the time. How can this little life be bad?
After the two people left, there are now three more people following them, namely Mu Feng, Wu Wu, and Gu Yunxiu.
Mu Feng's injury has made a great recovery, and since he is physically strong, he naturally recovers much faster than ordinary people.
Xiao Tiange took the lead, followed by a group of soldiers, and about a hundred people marched toward the depths of the mountain.
Since the snow was not very deep and he had chosen a high-quality horse, he was able to move forward in the snow with ease. Gu Yunxiu had grown up in Yuyang City all year round, so he naturally knew Yuyang City well.
"Your Highness, this mountain is called Beauty Peak by the locals! Because when viewed from a distance, its peak looks like a beautiful woman lying on her back, hence the name!"
Hearing this, Xiao Tiange couldn't help but raise her head and look at the mountain not far away. Sure enough, as Gu Yunxiu said, from a distance, there was indeed a great beauty lying there on her back, even her facial features were very lifelike.
"To be honest, I once read an ancient book in the attic. It once recorded that there was a country on this continent. The northwest of it was not as humid as the climate in Yuyang City. The climate there was
It is located on a plateau, has a dry climate, a huge temperature difference between day and night, is hit by wind and sand all year round, and has a large desert.”
Xiao Tiange murmured secretly in her heart, and for the time being, she should regard the world of her previous life as what she saw in ancient books. Otherwise, if these people wanted to get serious with her, she would not know how to reply.
Gu Yunxiu couldn't help but wonder when he heard this:
"Is there really such a place?" He turned around and smiled, feeling quite embarrassed.
"The general is a rough man. It's okay to ask me to lead troops to fight. But if you want me to look up some ancient books, the general is really not very good at it."
Just kidding, if you, Gu Yunxiu, are a rough guy, then it would be strange if the public security in Yuyang City is not chaotic. Of course, she knows that this is just Gu Yunxiu's always low-key approach. Since he likes to keep a low profile, she will not point it out to his face.
He just nodded and smiled and said no more.
After walking for about an hour, we finally arrived at the foot of Beauty Peak Mountain. The temperature here at the foot of the mountain seemed to be much lower than on the flat ground.
"Okay, the army is camped here, I can take as many as I want into the mountain!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Even Gu Yunxiu looked worried and hurriedly advised:
"Your Highness, this trip to the mountains is dangerous and dangerous. Your Highness is a man of wealth, so you should be careful!"
Xiao Tiange had already dismounted, and reached out to gently stroke the mane on the horse's back. As if the horse could feel the care of its owner, it hummed coquettishly a few times, raised its legs and kicked on the ground a few times.
"General, you are overly concerned. Besides, although I grew up in the palace, I have not neglected my own training!"
When she didn't go to school, she felt really bored and had to get up early every day which made her very depressed, so she found an excuse to rest at home.
And she was not really lazy in the palace as the outside world knew. Although she slept until midnight during the day, she did eat a lot of meals.
Others didn't know it, but she knew it very well. Every midnight, she would get up and study martial arts with Yue Ying until dawn the next day. Otherwise, where would her kung fu come from?
Besides, it is human nature to eat and sleep. If she doesn't eat or sleep, how can she grow so tall at the age of thirteen?
"Besides, we are going to hunt game, not to go on a parade. If there are too many people, we will definitely scare the snakes. Let alone the game, we won't even be able to touch an ant!"
Xiao Tiange seemed to be joking, but the people below knew her very well, and even ten cows couldn't pull back what she decided.
Gu Yunxiu hesitated to speak, but Mu Feng opened his mouth at this moment and said:
"In this case, my subordinates must do their best and risk their lives to protect the safety of the princess!"
Gu Yunxiu and Mu Feng had already said this. Naturally, he couldn't say anything more, so he had to acquiesce. Xiao Tiange smiled slightly at Mu Feng, reached out and patted Mu Feng's shoulder lightly, with an ambiguous attitude, which made everyone present There was a thought in their hearts, could this Mu Feng be His Highness's latest love?
Mu Feng's face was calm, but his heart was a little ups and downs, and he turned his face to the other side unnaturally. Xiao Tiange secretly laughed in his heart, little boy, can I still not be able to play with you?
Since Lin Di asked you to stay with me, why don't I eat you up and wipe you out, and finally win over you as my person?
Although this road is tortuous and difficult, she, Xiao Tiange, has plenty of time and can play with him slowly.
"Okay, General Gu, Mu Feng, and Wu Wu will accompany me. The rest of the people are waiting at the foot of the mountain. If anything happens, I will signal with a signal flare. Then you will rush to the mountain. Understood. Is it done?”
All the soldiers replied in unison:
"As you command!"
Xiao Tiange walked up the mountain with the three of them. The higher the altitude, the lower the temperature, the deeper the snow, and the harder the road became. It is true that Gu Yunxiu is a local, but he is not usually such a leisurely person. He went to such a place like this. In the wild mountains, take advantage of the ice and snow to climb mountains.
Therefore, among the few people, Mu Feng walked relatively easily, Crow was pretty good, although he was not as light as a swallow, he still walked swiftly, Xiao Tiange was a pampered princess after all, she was really too confident, and she ran to When I came here, I realized that I had overestimated myself a bit.
