Yun Shang was about to make a detailed identification, but another thunder struck down on his head and face. Yun Shang turned around and looked at Peilan and said, "What was that sound just now?"
Peilan looked a little frightened and said repeatedly: "I don't know this."
Yun Shang hurriedly sent a message to the secret guard: "Go and find out what the sound was just now, see how the battle is going, and report back quickly."
The secret guard responded and left in a hurry.
Yun Shang heard several more similar sounds, but each one was a little louder than the last.
Yun Shang was silent for a moment, then came back to her senses, frowned and said angrily: "Why did I forget to ask him to send an umbrella to His Majesty? A raincoat would be good too."
Hearing this, Peilan was about to speak, but heard Yun Shang's voice sound a little low and authentic: "Well, with your Majesty's temperament, I'm afraid he wouldn't use it even if he sent it over. So many soldiers are wet, how can he
Would you like to hide under an umbrella alone?"
After Yun Shang finished speaking, she raised her eyes to look at the sky filled with lightning and thunder, pursed her lips, turned around and returned to the house.
Half an hour later, the secret guard came back in a hurry. The rain outside had not stopped, and the secret guard was soaked to the skin. He only raised his hand to wipe the rain from his face and reported: "Master, that voice
, it’s the sound of Yelang’s army hitting the city gate with giant trees.”
The brush in Yun Shang's hand suddenly fell on the paper, and the ink suddenly blurred on the paper: "The army of Yelang Kingdom has entered the city?"
The secret guard nodded slightly, with a bit of solemnity in his eyes: "It's just that there should be no danger yet. The city wall is full of our archers, and the soldiers who came to attack the city gate suffered heavy casualties."
Yun Shang smiled bitterly: "With limited bows and arrows, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for long. Send more secret guards to explore again. If there is any news, report it as soon as possible."
"Yes!" The secret guard responded quickly, his voice sonorous and powerful, and then quickly exited the study.
Things seemed to be much worse than Yun Shang imagined, but Yun Shang always felt that with Luo Qingyan here, this battle should not be fought like this.
"Report, the enemy has set up a ladder and wants to climb over the wall."
"Report, our archers have less than 10,000 arrows left and are about to run out."
Yun Shang had no intention of looking at anything anymore. She just froze and sat firmly on the chair. She was extremely anxious, but she also knew very clearly that she was Luo Qingyan's weakness and could not be let go.
He is in danger, otherwise it will definitely affect Luo Qingyan.
"Report, for unknown reasons, there was sudden chaos in the enemy's rear. It seems that the cavalry horses were frightened and ran around, disrupting the enemy's formation."
When Yun Shang heard this, he was startled and looked hesitantly at the secret guard who came to report the news: "You said, which army is in chaos?"
The secret guard hurriedly said: "Master, we are the enemy. I just saw their cavalry on the city wall. They were originally at the back of the army, but those horses suddenly seemed to have gone crazy, neighing and running around in the army.
The enemy troops were thrown into chaos."
Yun Shang clenched her hands slightly, remained silent for a long time, and then said: "Continue to explore."
"Report, Your Majesty personally led the army and opened the city gate to fight."
When Yun Shang heard this report, a bit of morning white gradually came through the window, and it was still raining heavily. The outside seemed to be covered with a layer of gauze, and nothing could be seen clearly.
Yun Shang had been sitting for a long time, and her whole body was aching. After being silent for a long time, she slammed the table and stood up: "It's time now, prepare your horses, I want to leave the city."
Seeing that Yun Shang had left the study, the secret guard hurriedly chased her out: "Mother, it's not safe outside."
Yun Shang suddenly stopped. The smile on her lips was a bit dazed. After a long while, she finally smiled. The smile on her face was like a sudden bloom of an epiphyllum, which was so beautiful: "What did you just report? Your Majesty.
I will personally lead the army and go out of the city to fight."
The secret guard fell silent, but Yun Shang suddenly laughed: "Even His Majesty has put life and death aside, what can I care about? Prepare your horses!"
The secret guard responded quickly and ordered someone to lead the horse out. He also called the secret guard to follow Yun Shang. When Yun Shang left the city guard's house, he heard the loud shouting of killing coming from the north.
Yun Shang turned his head and looked towards the north, but could see nothing except the rows of houses. Yun Shang took the reins handed over by the secret guard, got on his horse, raised his whip, and said, "Drive!"
In the early morning after the rain, Fenghuang Mountain seemed to be caged in the clouds. When we climbed Fenghuang Mountain, the fog was so thick that we could hardly see anything. The secret guard quickly lit the torch, and the group groped towards the stone forest.
Suddenly, the secret signal of a secret guard came from the mountain, asking for the identity of the person who went up the mountain. Yun Shang took out a white jade flute and blew it, then walked up the mountain.
After walking for a short time, we arrived near the stone forest. The leader of the secret guard hurriedly came up to us: "Master, why did you come up the mountain? But the enemy has already come up?"
Yun Shang shook his head and replied: "I don't know when the enemy will come, but I'm afraid it will be soon."
The secret guard responded and whispered: "I placed a bell at the foot of the mountain. As long as someone touches the bell, the trees next to me will move, and then my subordinate will ask the identity of the person in code.
, if you can’t answer, you can take action.”
Yun Shang was worried about the war in the city and didn't hear clearly what he said, so she nodded absently.
After waiting for nearly two hours, the sky was all bright, but the fog still did not dissipate. Yun Shang heard the shouting of killing seemed to be getting closer and closer, so he whispered to the secret guards to be on guard. After a while, Yun Shang
Shang suddenly heard the secret guard's signal coming from down the mountain, saying that Yelang's army was already heading this way.
Then the tree on the side suddenly started to move violently and did not stop for a long time. Yun Shang's eyes were a bit cold, and she raised the corners of her mouth and smiled: "Here we come."
The secret guard quickly took Yun Shang to find a place to hide. The sound of footsteps and the sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer. Perhaps because it was difficult to walk in the mud in the mountains, the sound of footsteps and horse hooves were somewhat scattered.
"Master, the spies are here." The secret guard said softly.
Yun Shang heard the sound of three fireworks. Yun Shang held the white jade flute in his hand and passed the enemy contact signal to the secret guard. Not long after, he heard footsteps approaching, but within a moment, there was no sound.
sound.
Then, three fireworks went off.
Nearly an hour passed before many more chaotic footsteps began to sound, getting closer and closer. Yun Shang secretly said over and over again in her heart: Here we come.
She will definitely let them go without any return.
All the secret guards were on alert, and not long after, Yun Shang saw a longing figure appear outside the stone forest, and there were faint sounds of conversation in the Yelang language.
Then those people entered the stone forest one after another. In order to lure the enemy deeper, traps were mostly set up in the back. Most of the people were assassins in the front. However, the fog was too heavy. Even if the two of them were very close, they could not see clearly.
Assassins are extremely quick, and killing someone with one strike will leave you without even a chance to call for help.
Yun Shang only heard footsteps and occasional conversations. People kept entering the stone forest, but she didn't know what was going on in the stone forest. She could only straighten her back and wait quietly.
People were still entering the stone forest. Yun Shang made some calculations. The stone forest was three miles long in total. Only when the first person who entered the stone forest reached the last mile did the secret guards start to take action.
Poisonous smoke will be emitted. In this way, if nothing happens, at least 60,000 to 70,000 people can be trapped here.
Yelang's army was very well-disciplined. No one spoke, they just walked quietly.
After about an hour, someone's exclamation came out from the forest: "There is an ambush!"
The soldiers who had not yet entered immediately panicked. Some did not know what was going on, thinking that the Xia army had set up an ambush here, so they continued to rush in, intending to use their strength to clear out the ambush. Others were anxious.
He hurriedly bypassed the stone forest and rushed into the dense forest to the south.
Yun Shang curled her lips. There are good things waiting in the dense forest.
Not long after, Cang Jue Qingsu's voice came from a distance: "Don't panic. For those who have not entered the stone forest, the entire army should go to the right and enter the forest."
Next, I suddenly remembered the shouts and drums of the soldiers of the Xia Kingdom: "Kill! Kill until no one is left alive!" The sound was loud and powerful.
As a result, Yelang's army became even more panicked, and hurriedly bypassed the stone forest and plunged into the dense forest. After a while, bursts of screams were heard in the dense forest.
Yun Shang curled her lips, and suddenly heard the voices of Xia soldiers coming from the other side of the mountain: "Reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming."
There was finally a hint of joy on Yun Shang's face. Reinforcements were coming? Luo Qingyan had previously said that the reinforcements were coming to Lingxi soon. This came at the right time. I'm afraid it was Luo Qingyan's hard work in arranging it.
The corners of Yun Shang's mouth curled up slightly. There were reinforcements in front of him, pursuers behind him, and traps and poisonous smoke everywhere. She wanted to see how he could escape.
The Xia army had already arrived outside the stone forest, and Luo Qingyan was walking at the front. He quickly reined in his horse, raised his hand and said, "General Zhao stays here, while General Qian and General Lin lead their troops to the dense forest in front.
If any enemy troops withdraw from it, kill one one or two. But be careful not to let our soldiers enter this stone forest or that forest. They are poisonous and don't risk your life."
"Yes." Yun Shang heard several responses coming uniformly, and then they each took the people to where they should be.
Luo Qingyan walked straight towards Yun Shang.
Yun Shang was startled and felt a little panicked. How did he know that he was here? However, he saw that Luo Qingyan had already walked under the big tree where Yun Shang was hiding. He raised his head and looked up: "Come down." (Unfinished)
