After his quick eyesight and quick hands blocked Xiao Shilian's killing move, the man did not continue to move forward. Instead, he quickly took a step back. He immediately inserted the weapon in his hand on the ground, knelt on one knee and cupped his hands: "I see you, Major General!"
Xiao Shilian was gasping for air. It was obvious that what happened just now really shocked him. When he came back to his senses, Xiao Shilian realized that he was too nervous and didn't even see who was coming: "Yu Chang
,It's you!"
"My subordinates are late in rescuing me. Please forgive me, Major General!" The scout known as Yu Chang lowered his head and said. It was obvious that Xiao Shilian's somewhat embarrassed appearance was caught in his eyes, and he was very heartbroken. Unexpectedly, he felt that his voice was too loud.
He became choked with sobs, "Major General...Major General is suffering!"
"What do you have to cry about? What's the difference between you and women?!" Xiao Shilian scolded, but he didn't realize that his voice also became trembling. Obviously, he suddenly encountered reinforcements.
, the joy of surviving a desperate situation made Xiao Shilian somewhat unable to control himself, and barely managed to stabilize his mind, he said in a deep voice, "Get up!"
Yu Chang stood up in a hurry and rubbed his hands excitedly: "Major General, it's really you, it's really you! I didn't expect that you are still alive!"
"I'm very lucky, I can't die yet!" Xiao Shilian pretended to be angry and snorted coldly.
Li Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief and sat down next to Li Lian'er. Thank God, reinforcements came this time, otherwise the three of them would have really gone to hell. But Li Lian'er, who barely stayed awake, was a little surprised.
Looking at Xiao Shilian: "Brother, what... what is the major general?"
Hearing the voice behind him, Xiao Shilian turned back to look at the Li brothers and sisters in embarrassment, and solemnly cupped his hands: "Brother Li, Miss Lian'er, I'm really sorry. I concealed something before. I am the eldest son of General Xiao, General Chen Wuyi.
Because I didn’t know you two before, I haven’t told you the truth, so I apologize.”
Li Lian'er suddenly opened his mouth in surprise, stretched out his hand and tugged on Li Xingchen's sleeve: "Brother, he...he..."
When he thought of Xiao Shilian's identity, the close contact he had just had with him, and the secret emotions surging in the girl's heart, Li Lian'er felt as if his cheeks were on fire, and it was simply uncomfortably hot.
Li Xingchen chuckled lightly and returned the salute: "I have long felt that Brother Xiao is a talented person, and he is indeed a general's son, and his reputation is well-deserved! This is no wonder for Brother Xiao. As a scout, Brother Xiao should not show his identity as the son of General Wu Yi when he is away from home.
What's more, when you are in the military, you should put your duties first and put the feelings of father, son and brother behind. What Brother Xiao did, I admire very much."
Regardless of whether what Li Xingchen said was what he originally thought in his heart, Xiao Shilian knew that he was giving him a step down so that he would not be too embarrassed. He waved his hands repeatedly at the moment: "Brother Li is too praised and cannot deserve it."
When Yu Chang heard this man praising his young general, a smile appeared on his face, and he obviously had a good impression of Li Xingchen.
But at this moment, the sound of footsteps sounded again. Xiao Shilian and Li Xingchen were both startled. Yu Chang waved his hand hurriedly: "Don't panic, don't panic, the brothers behind are coming."
"Major General, I finally found you!"
Xiao Shilian breathed a long sigh of relief. Looking at the thirty or forty people who showed up, he couldn't help but sigh: "With so many people... Dad, it's really a big battle."
"Lian'er!" Suddenly, Li Xingchen, who was beside Xiao Shilian, noticed something and shouted.
I don't know when, Li Lian'er finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground.
"Let's go back quickly!" Xiao Shilian gritted his teeth.
"No!" Although these scouts under Xiao Mohe did not figure out what happened, since they had found their young general, retreating was indeed the best choice.
Li Xingchen, who was carrying Li Lian'er on his back, slowly raised his head and looked at the vast mountains and green forests where he grew up.
Once you leave and enter the age of great strife, you will never be able to look back.
——————————————————-
Huaishang, Luliangshui, Chen Jun camp.
The Luliang River continues to the north and can lead directly to the Central Plains. It is an important springboard for attacks from Huaibei to the Central Plains. Therefore, after Nanchen captured the coast of the Luliang River, the Northern Zhou Dynasty sent two groups of armies to attack here in succession.
In order to defend the Luliang River, Nanchen also devoted himself to management and set up a series of camps.
Compared with Wang Gui's army, Nanchen's army may not be large enough, but if Wang Gui wants to directly attack the camp here, he will have to pay a huge price. Wu Mingche, who is wily and strategizing, plus the war
Taking the lead and being invincible, Xiao Mohe could be said to have deployed the most luxurious lineup in Nanchen, hoping to defend Luliangshui, the springboard that he had finally taken advantage of the chaos in the Northern Qi Dynasty.
However, from now on, the situation does not seem to be optimistic. As news from the scouts continues to come, the atmosphere in General Wu Yi's camp is becoming increasingly solemn.
A large flag with the word "Xiao" was fluttering in the wind, while outside the big tent, the soldiers with halberds and armor stood in fierce opposition. Seeing the sentry riders coming quickly, they hurriedly separated to the two sides.
"Report——General!" The sentry rider threw the whip away, and without waiting for the horse to stop, he jumped off the horse. Thanks to his skill and courage, he only took two steps forward before he landed.
When he came down, he cupped his hands with the two soldiers at the door and rushed in quickly without having time to say hello to the familiar men.
"Today is already the tenth time." The soldier on the left couldn't help but secretly exclaimed.
The general standing opposite glared at him: "You are the only one who talks too much!"
Because he was very familiar with his superior, the soldier did not really take his accusation to heart: "If the Major General hadn't sent the news in time, we might not even know about the conspiracy of those barbarians. It's just the Major General."
Why haven't you come back yet?"
General Zhuang said in a deep voice: "The young general is a kind man, blessed with great fortune, and brave and resourceful. It is not that simple to take his life. You kid, please stop thinking here!"
The soldier stuck out his tongue and did not dare to say more.
In the camp, a seven-foot-old man wearing armor and holding a sword in his hand was pacing back and forth anxiously in front of the table. This man had a face with a Chinese character, and his beard on both sides was trembling slightly, perhaps because of anxiety, and his eyes were
There is murderous intent in it, a kind of murderous intent that will last a lifetime.
It was Xiao Mohe, the general of Nanchen Wuyi.
Looking at the emergency report coming back from the front, Xiao Mohe suddenly raised his head and looked at the map. On this map, which clearly marked the military strength of both sides of the Luliang River, the Northern Zhou army marked in cyan looked like the big claws of a crab.
, clamp the Nanchen army marked in red in the middle.
Luliangshui is now almost a dead end. If Nanchen continues to stand still, he may inevitably fall into the siege of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. As the coach, Wu Mingche seems to be hesitant, and just retreats the fragile baggage team to Huainan first, but in the future
The cavalry vanguard led by General Wu Yi, Xiao Mohe, and the infantry brigade led by Wu Mingche himself are still in Huaibei, with no intention of retreating.
