Thinking of the bad consequences, Yu Xi felt a chill in her back, but at least this proved that Hou Mi was still a reputable person.
"Why are you still stunned? Let's go!" Hou Mi came down the mountain in three steps and two steps at a time. These scouts are equipped with special climbing tools. This is why Yu Xi asked Hou Mi to open the trap first, "
This valley is not very long, and there is no movement from the Turks at the moment. Most likely, they will go back there to intercept us!"
"Let's go!" Yu Xi nodded quickly, not having time to thank him at this time.
And Hou Mi said loudly: "Sons, rush out, we can't be Li Ling and bring shame to our ancestors and future generations!"
The soldiers agreed with a loud voice. Everyone had heard about Li Ling being trapped in a valley and finally surrendering to the Huns. While feeling sad for this fierce general, everyone also knew very well that their situation now was not much better than Li Ling's back then.
"What are you going to do?" Yu Xi shouted as he galloped on his horse.
"We must retreat to Lingwu as soon as possible!" Hou Mi replied immediately.
"But we haven't figured out how much..."
Although he didn't even look here, Hou Mi's voice still came over: "The matter has come to this, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, we must go back as soon as possible!"
Before they finished speaking, they all rushed out of the valley. As expected, the Turks did not intend to move away these obstacles that nearly wiped out their hundreds of forwards. Instead, they simply bypassed the valley and headed this way.
Fortunately, both Hou Mi and Yu Xi were dissatisfied with their movements, and what these northwest war horses under their crotches are best at is high-speed impact. This period of galloping became faster and faster, but they did not lose their chain.
The Turkic cavalry had already faintly appeared at the foot of the hillside not far away, but fortunately Hou Mi and Yu Xi "turned in" faster, and soon they were able to throw the Turks away again.
"Then according to your opinion, this war is probably imminent?"
"What's imminent? It's imminent!" Hou Mi shouted, "We'd better pray that reinforcements have arrived in Lingwu, otherwise we will suffer a lot!"
"But this matter must be reported..." Yu Xi hesitated, no matter what his father and the Han people - now the two parties are considered a cooperative relationship, and naturally they cannot be called Southern barbarians with contempt - said, this
The six to seven hundred cavalry are almost the only mobile force available to the Pinggao County garrison, and they cannot just pull them away.
"I'm telling you, Major General Yu, have you eaten too much sand and become stupid?!" Hou Mi's eyes widened, "Don't you see when and where this is, and you rely on reports to fight?! If I had a thousand-mile horse, I would have
Eight hundred miles straight to His Majesty's location, I will definitely make all the arrangements to Heaven. With someone like Your Majesty commanding me, I will be confident no matter what I do. But now this ghost place, send people to Anding, Pinggao
, back and forth for three or four days, and by that time we would have been buried in the yellow sand by the Turks!"
Yu Xi was startled for a moment. If he decided to get together with the Han people, it was not impossible, but what did his father think?
After all, this is a family matter.
But having said that, it is indeed the same as what Hou Mi said. It is now, and there is no other choice. Going to Lingwu first is the only possibility.
"Let's go." Yu Xi said decisively.
If something really went wrong, he would be responsible for it all by himself!
Good man, just use the knife to make a quick move!
At least they, the children of northern generals, cannot be as courageous as those from the southern generals like Hou Mi.
————————
It was already the end of November, and the cold air from the north rushed across the river, bringing with it a bone-chilling chill.
Windproof curtains were hung on the pavilions and corridors, and indeed the remaining lotuses in the pond were nothing to look at.
The war situation in the northwest has not yet been decided, so Li Xingchen naturally has no intention of singing and dancing to promote peace. Xiao Xiang is giving a lecture to Ning Yuan in the lobby. This is a task given by Lechang before they left, and Xiao Xiang naturally does not dare to neglect it. Zhang Lihua is studying ink next to her.
Seeing Li Xinchen coming, he quickly stepped forward and untied Li Xinchen's robe.
Originally, Xiao Xiang was still very hostile to Zhang Lihua. This time he volunteered and naturally wanted to "monitor" Zhang Lihua. However, as time went by, this hostility naturally faded a lot.
First of all, Li Xingchen was busy inspecting everywhere and didn't have much time to accompany Xiao Xiang and the others. Therefore, Xiao Xiang, out of boredom, besides holding on to Ning Yuan, a little girl who now regretted it, naturally only had time with Zhang Lihua.
Play chess and play the piano.
"Are you going to Yuelu Academy again today?" Xiao Xiang handed over the prepared hot tea. In this cold wind, there was nothing more comfortable than a cup of hot tea.
"Yes, I took a look and found that the construction is almost complete." Li Xingchen nodded, "Everything in Xiangzhou has been arranged. Let's pack our things. We will go to Jiangling tomorrow."
Xiao Xiang suddenly pouted and said, "Are you leaving now? It's been cold these past two days, and there are still many places I haven't gone to yet."
In fact, if the weather was warmer, she would not be idle. She would take Ning Yuan out for sightseeing. Li Xingchen had no intention of caring about her anyway. If she didn't find some fun by herself, she would be depressed to death.
Li Xingchen smiled and said: "It's not like there won't be opportunities in the future. Besides, there are a lot of fun things in Jiangling. Remember to take Ning Yuan to see them when the time comes."
"Husband, do you still have no time?"
Li Xingchen hesitated for a moment and nodded: "I will try my best."
As if Li Xingchen had agreed, Xiao Xiang hugged him excitedly.
And Li Xingchen said with a smile: "Ning Yuan is still here, pay attention."
"Huh," Xiao Xiang reluctantly nuzzled into his arms, "In that case, my husband will accompany me to go shopping on the street. I haven't had a chance to buy anything when I come to Xiangzhou. By then, the two of us will
When a sister asks for a gift, I don’t know what to give.”
"That's easy to say," Li Xingchen suddenly said seriously, "You go to the street to buy a basket, and then put someone in the basket. Your two sisters will definitely be very happy."
Xiao Xiang stamped his feet: "Rogue!"
Li Xingchen rubbed her little head lovingly: "Okay, okay, if you want to go out on the street, hurry up and change your clothes. Ning Yuan, come here."
Ning Yuan ran over in a hurry, but he didn't know what Li Xingchen wanted to do, so he subconsciously took two steps back. Li Xingchen lowered his body slightly, still pretending to be serious: "Here, memorize the thousand-character essay, and let someone see that you have learned it."
How many."
Ning Yuan was not panicked: "The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is vast..."
"Okay, Mulan poem."
Before this was mentioned, Ning Yuan suddenly panicked and kept glancing at Xiao Xiang next to him. However, Xiao Xiang didn't seem to care about this student and was happily discussing with Zhang Lihua what clothes to wear. (To be continued)
