However, Xia's army had a large number of people after all, and the 50,000 people Liu Hua led also suffered heavy casualties. When they finally worked together to break out of the siege, less than 10,000 people were left.
Being able to escape from Xia Jun's ambush was due to a topographic map of Qingfeng Valley drawn by Yun Shang, which marked the terrain of Qingfeng Valley in detail. Yun Shang even sent people to some places when he was exploring the terrain.
Many traps were laid in the hidden place, and Liu Hua relied on these traps to break out of the siege and return to the camp with only a few thousand people left.
When Liu Hua returned to the camp, Qi Lang was furious, "You guys are really stiff. You ignored military discipline and blatantly disobeyed the general's orders."
Liu Hua frowned, and without even taking off his armor, he rushed in with his sword in hand, "General Qi, who ignores military discipline? The Lord Supervisor has clearly made arrangements, but you don't follow His instructions and make the decision without authorization.
Does General Qi know that in addition to Qingfeng Valley, Liuyunling also encountered countless enemies today? If it were not for the fifty thousand people led by the deputy general and the support of one hundred thousand people from General Wang, the general would have been defeated and returned.
By that time, even this camp is no longer ours."
Hearing this, Qi Lang's face changed from blue to white, and he slapped his hand heavily on the table, "Rebellion, you are really rebelling! Come here, please call the military judge. I will let you see who is the leader of this battalion today.
The one who calls the shots."
As soon as Qi Lang finished speaking, he saw a secret guard opening the curtain and walking in. Qi Lang's face became even more ugly, "This is a military camp! Even if you are the princess' secret guards, you are not allowed to walk around the military camp at will."
The secret guard didn't pay attention to what Qi Lang said at all, he just said calmly, "Prince Jing has given orders, please all the generals to clean up a tent in the camp and come out. He will bring the princess back early tomorrow morning at the latest."
Except for Wang Chong and Wang Yan, everyone in the camp was startled, with obvious shock in their eyes. Wang Chong then touched his nose and said, "Just when all the generals left the camp, Prince Jing came
Yes, but after hearing that the princess was taken away by Liu Yinfeng, he hurriedly left with others, probably to save the princess."
Everyone had different expressions on their faces. Qi Lang secretly clenched his fists in his hands and his expression turned extremely ugly. After a while, he gave Wang Chong and Liu Hua a hard look and said, "Okay! Okay! Okay! You guys are very good! I treat you like you."
Why are you so bold? It turns out that you have found a backer." After saying that, he raised his foot and left the commander's camp, and the door of the camp slammed with a "bang" sound.
After a long while, Liu Hua looked at Wang Chong, with a bit of excitement in his eyes, "Is Prince Jing really here?"
Wang Chong nodded, "Of course it's true. Why did I lie to you?"
"What does Prince Jing look like? I heard that Prince Jing is a rare handsome man in Ningguo, but he looks like a rich and handsome man?" Liu Hua asked hurriedly.
"As for appearance, Prince Jing's appearance is certainly good, but he doesn't look like a handsome young man. He is very manly, but a little cold." Wang Chong laughed and said, "You are so excited,
If you were a woman, I would have thought you liked Prince Jing, but it’s a pity that you are not from a girl’s family, so what’s the point of asking Prince Jing about his appearance like this?”
However, Yun Shang was still in a coma and did not know that Prince Jing had arrived at the border. Liu Yinfeng had not come back yet. Qian Yin looked at the unconscious person on the bed and sighed quietly, when will the princess wake up.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Uncle Liu's voice coming from outside, "Someone breaks into the formation. Please protect Mr. Xiao and don't come out. I'll go take a look first."
Qianyin was stunned when he heard this, walked around the screen, and Uncle Liu's figure had disappeared. He remembered what Uncle Liu said when he left just now, someone broke into the formation? Qianyin frowned, could it be Liu Yinfeng's
Enemy? I hope that person will break that annoying formation soon, so that I can let the secret guards take the princess out of this ghost place. After she goes back, she will definitely find someone who is familiar with the formation to make a living.
Learn from it and don't let the princess fall into such danger next time.
Qianyin thought, and gathered the quilt again. The weather was getting colder. Counting it, it was already December. I wonder if I can go back to the imperial city on New Year's Eve this year? This is the first time after the princess and the princess got married.
New Year's Eve is always of great significance.
Pulling back from his random thoughts, he heard the sound of fighting outside. Qianyin became curious, stepped out and walked towards the entrance of the courtyard, and saw what seemed to be a figure in the ancient formation.
Because everyone was in the formation, Qianyin's vision was a little blurry and she couldn't see anything. She just took a look and then shrank back. Uncle Liu was right, her first priority now is to protect her.
princess.
Back in the house, Qianyin heard the secret guard's unique contact information coming from around her. A bright color suddenly appeared in Qianyin's eyes. Could it be that the secret guard came to save the princess?
Qianyin could not suppress the joy in her heart, so she hurriedly replied, "Is that the brother of the secret guard outside? I am Qianyin..."
Then a message came, "The prince is here, Qian Sonic quickly brought the princess out."
Qianyin became even more happy. The prince is here. It is the prince who is here. In this way, he must be able to go out. Qianyin thought, and carefully lifted Yunshang up and carried her on her back. She was afraid that she would be able to go out.
Yun Shang was so cold that she even carried the quilt on her back.
Carrying Yun Shang on her back and walking out of the courtyard, Qian Yin looked at the figure in the formation with full expectation, but she never worried that Prince Jing would not be able to break through this strange formation. Perhaps, in Ning Guo, everyone
In people's hearts, Prince Jing is omnipotent.
After about half an hour, a black figure walked out of the formation. After that, the shadow in the formation suddenly became very clear. Qianyin could clearly see that Uncle Liu was surrounded by secret guards.
Among them, they were defeated one after another.
The formation broke. Qianyin felt happy.
Before she could recover, she heard Prince Jing's cold voice coming over, "What's wrong with the princess?"
Only then did Qian Yin realize that Prince Jing had arrived in front of him at some point. His eyes fell gently on the person behind Qian Yin, but his face was as cold as ice.
Qianyin quickly put Yunshang down from behind her, supported her with her hands, and said softly, "After Liu Yinfeng left the day before yesterday, the princess wanted to break into the formation, but she accidentally entered the door of death and was injured by the poisonous smoke.
.I have already taken the antidote, but the poisonous smoke is so overbearing that the princess may be in a coma for a few days."
Prince Jing was silent for a moment, with a somewhat dangerous look in his eyes. He stretched out his hand to take Yun Shang into his arms, hugged her sideways and walked out.
Qian Yin's heart skipped a beat. The prince's expression seemed to be angry. Although Yun Shang and Prince Jing had been married for several months, Qian Yin, as Yun Shang's personal maid, had not had much contact with Prince Jing, but she still couldn't.
Trying to figure out Prince Jing's thoughts. Just looking at his face, it was obvious that he was angry, and he seemed to be very angry.
Qianyin bit her lip and secretly yelled "Oh no," when the prince was angry, he would only blame the princess. But now that the princess was unconscious, he was afraid that someone would suffer, but he just hoped that he would not be the one who suffered.
. After thinking wildly for a moment, he quickly followed.
Prince Jing held Yun Shang in his arms and got on the horse. He adjusted his position holding Yun Shang, put her in his arms, leaned against him, raised his whip, and landed heavily.
When Qianyin ran over, she only saw Yiqi Juechen running away, and she wailed in her heart, "Your Majesty, this slave is still here. Don't leave this slave behind."
Prince Jing was concerned about Yun Shang's health, so the horse was riding more steadily than when he arrived, but the speed was definitely not slow. In about five hours, he had already arrived at the military camp outside Kangyang City.
Because he had already received the news, Qi Lang had no choice but to bring the military generals to greet him even though he was very reluctant. The group knelt down in front of the main tent and saw a man wearing black clothes and a black cloak hugging him.
A man came over, and everyone hurriedly bowed to the ground, "I will finally pay my respects to Prince Jing."
Prince Jing didn't seem to see them. He didn't even slow down his steps. He pushed open the door of the tent and walked in. A cold but majestic voice came from inside, "Passengers are told by the military doctor."
.”
The sky in December was extremely cold, but those three simple words still made the generals outside who had killed countless people shiver, and they felt a chill penetrate their bones.
The military doctor hurriedly called over. The military doctor knelt down in front of the bed and checked Yun Shang's pulse. After a while, he tremblingly said under Prince Jing's murderous eyes, "The princess's body is not seriously wrong, she is just a little weak."
Just drink some, stew some supplements and take them, no need to take medicine."
Prince Jing reached out and shook the cold hand of the woman in his arms, frowned, and said nothing for a while. Just when the military doctor was thinking about whether to change his mind and prescribe some medicine to the woman, he heard a faint voice, "
Go down."
As if he had received an amnesty, the military doctor quickly packed up the medicine box and retreated. Then he saw several generals in the camp guarding the door of the tent, looking at him with burning eyes. The military doctor couldn't help but trembled, and then said, "
The princess is fine."
Several generals breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at King Jing's expression just now, they thought something had happened to that stunning woman. They were worried for a while. On the one hand, they had gradually become convinced of Yun Shang these days.
On the one hand, he was afraid that the famous cold-faced prince would blame him and he would not be able to bear the blame.
Just as they were thinking about it, they saw the door of the camp opened again, and the figure of Prince Jing appeared at the door of the camp. Everyone hurriedly lowered their heads and said, "Your Majesty."
Prince Jing nodded, "Have someone send you some supplements. By the way, boil some buckets of hot water."
Qi Lang ordered his servants to do it, then turned around and said, "Your Majesty, Xia Jun..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Prince Jing, "The supervisor in this camp now is Princess Jing, not this king. If you have anything else to say after Princess Jing wakes up," Prince Jing glanced over.
The generals in front of them looked at Qi Lang with a bit of sarcasm in their eyes.
"I heard that General Qi did not obey the orders of the Supervisor of the Army and made his own decisions, which resulted in heavy losses in this battle. I am just an outsider. How to decide this matter? We have to wait for the Supervisor of the Army to wake up.
Decision. Although Lord Supervisor of the Army is on the battlefield for the first time, when he was in the imperial city, he often discussed the art of war and tactics with me, and occasionally had unique insights, which even me deeply admired. As a veteran general, General Qi only
Because she is a woman, I felt disdain and looked down upon her. Such a big heart and behavior are not like the behavior of a veteran on the battlefield."
After King Jing finished speaking, he turned around and entered the camp, leaving Qi Lang standing there, gritting his teeth and struggling to stand, speechless for a long time.
After a while, soldiers came in with hot water. King Jing ordered people to pour the hot water into the bathtub, took off the clothes Yun Shang was wearing, and put Yun Shang into the bathtub.
After cleaning her body, she put her back on the bed.
After the soldier changed the water, he also cleaned up, then walked outside the screen, looked at the food the soldier brought, took the porridge and walked to the bed, helped Yun Shang up, and fed her one bite at a time.
I also went out to eat some.
After doing this, he took off his shoes and lay down on the couch, took off the robe he was wearing, put his arms around Yun Shang, fixed Yun Shang in his arms, and then closed his eyes.
The house had just been defeated, and he had not even had time to clean up the battlefield, so he hurried to Kangyang. It was then that he realized that he missed her more than he thought.
While he was on the battlefield, he heard news from the palace that she had gone to Kangyang with a request. He was extremely angry, but she was so cunning that she only gave the housekeeper a chance to send the letter after she left, and the letter reached him.
By the time she arrived, she was already approaching Kangyang. Although he was helpless, because of the tight war situation and lack of resources, he could only let her go. He only sent extra people around her to help her carry out her daily tasks.
Everything was returned to him.
He knew that she had suffered a lot because of Qi Lang's deliberate attempts to make things difficult. But he didn't expect that he actually heard the secret guard's report, saying that she told Qi Yufeng that he could take Qi Yufeng as his face. He laughed angrily, and she was really
Dare! He quickly wrote a letter and sent it to her, but because he was angry in his heart, he rubbed the letter paper again and again until it was almost in ruins before he sent it out.
Later, he also learned that she showed her wisdom on the battlefield, and that she worked hard to survey the terrain every day in preparation for the war. It was not that she was not unappreciative or proud, but she was also very worried. Originally, he could have used a better way to
Li Jingyan and Xia Houjing killed them all in one fell swoop, but they couldn't help but fight slowly, so they hurriedly fought quickly and rushed over.
Prince Jing approached Yun Shang, smelling the faint fragrance of plum blossoms on her body, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Fortunately, he arrived in time.
After days of traveling and the effort he put into breaking the eight formations, Prince Jing was a little tired and fell asleep soon after.
When Qian Yin rushed back in disgrace, he entered the tent and walked around the screen, and saw Prince Jing and Yun Shang lying on the couch, sleeping peacefully.
Qianyin looked at the picturesque scene in front of her, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. Before she could grin, her eyes suddenly widened and landed on the place where the quilt was raised. Ah... a piece of snow-white was inadvertently exposed there.
Qianyin's mouth opened wide and she almost screamed, the princess...the princess didn't even have any clothes on?
After being stunned for a long time, Qianyin silently raised her hand and closed her jaw that was about to fall to the ground. She secretly hypnotized herself in her heart, "They are a couple who came to the church to get married. They are a husband and wife, they are a husband and wife..." Then she closed her eyes silently.
Withdrew.
The camp here is warm and cozy, but Xia Jun's camp is a bit gloomy.
"Your Highness, the military advisor has completed the count. Our army has more than 70,000 dead and 50,000 wounded. Among them, two generals have been killed and one has been wounded. Twenty-three cartloads of food and grass have been lost." A soldier knelt down on the ground and reported softly.
Xia Houyan rubbed his temples and sighed, "This time, after all, we underestimated the enemy too much. We thought we had figured out Na Qi Lang's temper, so we were infallible. Although we had received news about Nao Shi Zijing before,
The princess came to Kangyang to serve as some kind of military supervisor, but because she was a woman, she was still a weak and weak woman, and Qi Lang didn't want to see that woman at all, so she didn't take it seriously at all, but he didn't want to eat that woman.
A big loss."
Liu Yinfeng nodded, "It's because Wei Chen failed in his duty, so Your Highness should punish Wei Chen."
Xia Houyan waved his hand, "Although I am a rough man, I also know that military advisors are people with great wisdom. Although I am good at fighting, I know nothing about twists and turns. I have to rely on you in this battle.
Where are you, military advisor? Don’t talk about punishment or not. If you really have this intention, then think carefully about how to win the battle for me, so that you can offset the merit."
"Yes, Wei Chen accepts the order." Liu Yinfeng had no other expression on his face and nodded lightly.
Xia Houyan sighed, "I've been working hard these past two days, and I haven't been able to take a moment off. Military counselor, you haven't practiced martial arts, so you are weak. You should go back and rest first. Only when you are well rested can you fight a tough battle."
When Liu Yinfeng heard this, he bowed and exited the tent, heading towards the yard where he lived.
But as soon as he reached the far end of the yard, he noticed something was wrong. The formation he had set up with his own hands seemed to have been tampered with and had broken.
Liu Yinfeng was secretly surprised, but also afraid that the people who broke the formation were guarding the house, so he returned to the camp, took his guards, and walked into the eight formations he had set up.
There were obvious traces of fighting in the formation. Liu Yinfeng followed the traces little by little and saw the bodies of two men in black lying in the formation. Liu Yinfeng walked up to the men in black and searched them carefully.
After some searching, nothing was found. They seemed to be afraid that their identities would be revealed due to death, and they did not carry anything with them that could identify themselves. Liu Yinfeng frowned and slowly moved toward the end of the Eighth Formation.
Walk through the middle formation.
Faintly seeing a gray figure lying in the formation, Liu Yinfeng paused and walked over quickly. He couldn't help but feel that it was indeed Uncle Liu. He knelt down and put his finger in front of Uncle Liu's nose to check.
But they found that Uncle Liu had already stopped breathing.
Liu Yinfeng looked a little uncomfortable. He stood up slowly and whispered, "Give Uncle Liu a good burial."
The guards behind him stepped forward and took Uncle Liu's body away. However, Liu Yinfeng suddenly heard that there was someone else in his small courtyard, the man he had brought back from Qingfeng Valley... (to be completed)
