Chapter 288 The general’s white hair and husband’s tears
As soon as Sanniang led the crowd to leave, Yue Hongling came on horseback. I don’t know if Sanniang sensed the sound of horse hooves in the distance in advance and walked so perfectly.
Looking at the figures in the distance, Yue Hongling was very surprised and asked Zhao Changhe: "Who are those people? Did you kill Ubalu's helper?"
"Yes." Zhao Changhe secretly thought that Sanniang probably didn't want Yue Hongling to know her strength, so she decided to leave. Especially if Xuanwu's identity really became known to the world, Sanniang would go on a rampage.
So he didn't go to expose her background and just said: "A group of like-minded people, including Han Wubing."
Yue Hongling had a different thought: "No wonder it's so easy. It turns out there is a large group of people from the knight camp?"
"Hmm." Zhao Changhe asked, "How are you doing there? Are you hurt?"
"No real fight." Yue Hongling looked a little serious: "Chili has broken through the secret. His true strength at this moment is definitely more than sixty-six on the list. Don't underestimate the enemy next time you see him. It's best to leave as soon as you see him. The further away, the better.
"
Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "Isn't it because you are by my side?"
Yue Hongling turned her head and looked at him for a while, then suddenly said: "Hey, do you really want to be with me forever?"
Zhao Changhe was stunned: "How do you say this? Do you still want to separate from me?"
"I can't bear to part with you." Yue Hongling sighed: "But from a martial arts point of view, it is actually better for you and me to separate."
Zhao Changhe pursed his lips, he also knew this truth in his heart.
Especially when Hong Ling is stronger than herself...if she is always by her side, once dependence develops, it will be really difficult to make any further progress.
Yue Hongling said: "After this battle, where do you plan to go?"
Zhao Changhe thought for a while and asked, "What about you?"
"I may go to the southwest, visit Bashan Jianlu for a while, and see what happened in Miao territory. I have to go through all the places."
It seems that Yue Hongling really has a very clear plan for her own path. Such a wandering heroine rarely stops her heart in one place.
Strictly speaking, although I got her, it may not be considered as "returning to my heart" because her heart is in the world.
I don't know when she will feel tired and want a home.
But obviously it's not the right time yet, after all, her man is not a peaceful man either.
If everyone has no home, where can they stay?
In fact, Zhao Changhe thinks that he can also go to the southwest. For example, he has always wanted to go to Wushan to find Master Xue. When he gets to Wushan, it is not too far to go to Bashan. Generally speaking, he is on the same road, and then let
Yue Hongling beat Master Xue again, which is very funny just thinking about it.
But then I thought about it, beating Master Xue is not the first priority. I do have more important plans. For example, the next step is to find the blood ginseng that Jin Fie mentioned and lay the foundation of the "Blood Shura Body". Then I should go
Where should I follow the clues of the blood ginseng? If I don't decide where to go first, it will be a waste of time.
I actually forgot to ask Sanniang about this before. She is well-informed and might actually have clues.
In addition, you should try to contact Ji Chengkong to see if there is anything that can be traded with the Thief Saint. It is very important to learn ingestion martial arts and be able to use storage rings!
Thinking of this, he smiled and said: "Okay, I also want to find something by myself. Maybe, you and I are destined to be like this, and I will find it and find it next to you."
Yue Hongling was quite amused by what she heard: "The world is so big. If you didn't come to the southwest on purpose and you could have coincidentally followed my path just by looking for things by yourself, then I..."
Zhao Changhe blinked: "What?"
Yue Hongling's cheeks were slightly red, she bit her lower lip and turned her head: "Then I will play with you in the position you have always wanted."
Zhao Changhe laughed: "I am confident, just wait, my heroine."
Yue Hongling said angrily: "Now this is all that fills my mind."
I don’t know who mentioned it first... Zhao Changhe did not expose her, but said with a smile: "Let's go, at least for now, you and I are still riding side by side, giving Timur a little shock in the Central Plains."
As he spoke, he pinched the horse's belly, and Wu Zui ran forward like a joyful man in the snow: "Let's see if your Red Rabbit is more powerful, or is my Wu Zui stronger?"
Seeing his free and easy appearance, the entanglement in Yue Hongling's heart disappeared and she became free and easy. She waved her riding crop and said, "Drive!"
…………
It's sunset again, the sun is setting in the west, the Qiang pipes are lingering, and the ground is covered with clear frost.
The wild geese flew across the mountains, crossed the pass, and headed south, heading straight to Hengyang.
Winter is here...
But the people here have not returned home for who knows how long, and may even never be able to return home.
Huangfu Yongxian stood at the top of the city, looking at the pile of corpses that were shut up and down, and he could no longer tell which ones belonged to the enemy and which ones were his own.
A section of the city wall has been partially collapsed, and the soldiers are trying their best to repair it, but Huangfu Yongxian's experience tells him clearly that if it cannot be repaired tonight, the barbarians will attack this gap tomorrow morning. Whether it can be defended is a matter of time.
.
The soldiers on the left and right were exhausted, and their faces were stained with blood that had not been cleaned for who knows how long.
Not to mention cleaning, we don’t even have much time to sleep.
Affected by the death of Here, the War Lion tribe was in chaos and did not participate in the attack. Without this huge clan, Timur's offensive has also slowed down a bit. The main point of tension between the two sides is still food.
Winter is coming soon, and there is not enough food in the grasslands. This is also the biggest factor that prompted them to tackle this problem.
But Huangfu Yongxian found helplessly that despite all the efforts, the other party's food supply was no less than his own.
The food and salary here are short of a pound, and even after many layers of transfers, the people who arrived at Yanmen are not enough to support tens of thousands of troops and horses.
On the contrary, a large amount of food came out of nowhere and was spread to the major tribes in the rear of the grassland.
Huangfu Yongxian sent people to pretend to be horse bandits and intercepted people from outside the pass to the inside of the pass. He directly used the extra money to fill the shortage of his own army and horses, which was barely coping. But it was meaningless in the overall situation. If the Hu people had enough military rations, they would not be able to defeat them.
My side is about to collapse.
Because the number of people is not a magnitude.
The barbarians can take turns to attack, but they can't even take turns to take turns, and everyone is exhausted.
In the past, Jianghu people in the Xiake camp rarely participated in the war directly, and they all went to the rear to cause trouble. Since Zhao Changhe rescued six people last time, there are very few running away now, and they all come to the army to help honestly. For example, Cui
A strong player like Yuanyong Situxiao could match one to a hundred, and he was simply unstoppable as an arrow for the team. It boosted morale a lot, but it was still of no use.
In an offensive and defensive battle involving hundreds of thousands of people, their role was too small.
We can still manage to hold on for now, but it is said that the War Lion Tribe is back again. Once they attack again, it will really be a big deal.
My daughter often says, "Rebellion? What's the use of this kind of foolish king and this kind of court? How many people have died in our family, does it make sense?"
Huangfu Yongxian turned his head and looked around. Seeing the old general looking over, the surrounding soldiers raised their heads and chests vigorously, letting the general see that they still had not lost their fighting spirit.
Huangfu Yong smiled first.
Regardless of surrender or rebellion, the soul of this army is gone, and so is the soul of Huangfu Yongxian.
It would be better to die.
"General." Finally a deputy general said: "It's late at night and you are old. Why don't you go back and rest. We can just keep an eye on the repairs here."
The old general smiled casually: "I am the strongest among you, so there is no reason for me to go to bed first."
"General..."
"Don't worry, as long as I don't die for a day, Yanmen will be here."
The old general held his helmet in his arms, and the north wind blew by, picking up the general's white hair, which looked like frost on this winter night.
The soldiers were willing to believe the old general's encouraging words.
But he is not yet sixty, and his hair is already gray. If he continues to work so hard, will Yanmen still have a general?
Unconsciously, the stars and the moon gradually disappeared.
The crow of roosters can be heard in Guannei County, the east is gradually turning fish-belly white, and a few wisps of morning glow illuminate the horizon, which is very beautiful.
"Woo~woo~"
The trumpet sounded, the ground trembled slightly, and the overwhelming torrent approached from far away, approaching Guancheng.
The torrent stretches as far as the eye can see, but just looking at it from a distance gives people a suffocating pressure.
Huangfu Yong first took a look at the collapse of the city wall and found that repairing it was basically meaningless.
