Empress Chu

……

……

A group of soldiers and horses galloped across the wilderness, and the strong wind caused a group of soldiers in training to be a little unstable.

"Look, it's Miss Chu." A soldier holding a spear shouted excitedly.

Among the galloping soldiers and horses was a figure wrapped in a cloak with a knife and arrow on her back. Although she was dressed the same as the soldiers, no matter how thick the cloak was, it could not conceal her petite figure.

I heard that Ms. Chu was on patrol for General Chu, but they were all in the camp of the Chinese army before, and this was the first time they had seen the troops stationed on the front line.

"Miss Chu dares to come here." A soldier said.

This is the closest place to the battle. Xiliang soldiers can emerge at any time, and the battle can also start at any time.

The other immediately retorted: "Why is Ms. Chu afraid? Ms. Chu fought Xiliang people herself."

The person next to him waved his knife: "You are all wrong."

The two looked at him earlier, what was wrong?

The man smiled: "It should be called Queen, not Miss Chu."

There was a new uproar on the training ground, whether to address the Queen or Miss Chu, this is probably a boring training, a rare joy in life of not knowing whether tomorrow will be life or death.

A soldier turned his head and saw his companion holding a bow and arrow motionless, his eyes following the soldiers and horses going away.

"Liang Qiang." He raised his arm and bumped into his companion.

Liang Qiang turned her head to look at him, her eyes were a little dazed, as if she didn't know what happened.

"You boy." The soldier laughed, "Have you never seen such a beautiful girl before?"

Not only had he seen such a pretty girl before, but this pretty girl also praised him for his bravery in public, Liang Qiang smiled, he had heard the news long ago and knew she was coming, he never expected to see her with his own eyes.

Liang Qiang was glad that seeing him now was much better than the previous paragraph, at least he also killed the enemy, which is considered brave——

Thinking of this, he laughed at himself again.

Whether he is brave or not has nothing to do with her.

He didn't forget how their Liang family left the capital, and what kind of relationship Chu Zhao had with Xie family. Before leaving, he saw with his own eyes——

Liang Qiang clenched the crossbow in her hand.

His father wrote in a letter saying that their merits and rewards were approved, and this merits were approved by chance - Chu Ling was in poor health and was busy with the war, so he did not personally review the list of merits and awards, and after they were sent to the capital, because of Xie Yanfang and Grand Tutor Game, one dared not block directly, and the other deliberately supported, everything went so smoothly.

If Chu Ling or Chu Zhao knew that their Liang family was going to recover, they would definitely stop them.

Even if the imperial court approved it, it would be easy for the frontier army in Chu Ling to get rid of their father and son.

Not yet.

When his promotion reward gets bigger and bigger, to the point that even the head of the country, the general, and the queen can't shake it, he will stand in front of her again and let her see how brave Liang Qiang is.

"Okay." He threw down the crossbow and picked up the long knife, "Stop chatting, swinging the knife a few more times will give you a better chance of survival."

"Listen to General Xiao Liang." A soldier shouted, and took the lead in fighting with his companions.

Others also moved their hands.

"Little Liang will be brave!"

"Xiao Liang will win every battle is just like this."

The sound of laughter and jokes was gradually drowned out by the sound of fighting.

Soon the sirens sounded again.

"There are soldiers from Xiliang appearing in the northwest!"

"whole team!"

"The whole vanguard battalion!"

……

……

Hearing this sound, Chu Zhao turned around and looked back.

"Is there a war?" she asked.

"Miss." A soldier listened attentively to the siren, "It's still far from here. It was the scouts who found Xiliang soldiers sneaking, and summoned soldiers to hunt them down."

Chu Zhao groaned, watching a group of soldiers and horses gather and head northwest like sharp arrows.

"Miss, don't worry." The general said, "It's just a small-scale pursuit."

It's useless for her to worry, she can't really go to the battlefield to kill, her role is to replace her father, stabilize and inspire the army, she knows what she should do, and she won't act rashly.

"When the soldiers return victorious, whoever captures Xiliang's head will be rewarded with a jug of wine," Chu Zhao said.

The soldiers will promise to convey the order in a loud voice.

"Miss, it's time to go back." A soldier whispered beside him.

Chu Zhao glanced at this soldier—Ding Dahui.

Seeing her looking over, Ding Dachui shrank back and said in a low voice, "It's General Xie who said, don't run too far."

Chu Zhao didn't say anything, she really couldn't run too far, her father would wake up at any time, or stop breathing at any time.

She withdrew her gaze and swung the whip to urge the horse.

……

……

The soldiers chasing Xiliang soldiers did not know that there would be wine rewards for victory in this battle.

Even if you know, at this moment, a thought will pop up in your heart, this wine reward is not easy to get.

This time, the number of enemies pursued exceeded the expectations of the scout.

A long knife brushed past Liang Qiang's nose, and he lost his nose by only an inch.

Liang Qiang leaned back, raised the knife in her hand, and collided with the Xiliang soldier's long knife, and flames appeared in front of her eyes.

Chapter 70 Where to go

Liang Qiang was no longer as young as she was on the battlefield for the first time. Not only did he block the attack, but he also lay on his back on the horse and stabbed the long knife out to fight back.

The Xiliang soldier was stabbed. Although it was not fatal, he fell off his horse and was trampled to death by the horse's hoof.

But this does not mean that Liang Qiang is invincible, as soon as he sat upright on the horseback, there were Xiliang soldiers cutting down from behind.

This time he didn't have much luck, he could only turn the long knife back instinctively——

The sound of weapons colliding and screams sounded at the same time. Liang Qiang stopped the spinning long knife, turned the horse's head, and saw that the Xiliang soldier had died tragically on the ground—he still had good luck, because there were two soldiers guarding him. He left and right.

Is this because he is their village chief?

Liang Qiang glanced at the two soldiers. Although he was the commander of the team, but because he had just been promoted and devoted himself to martial arts training, he was not familiar with these two soldiers, and he couldn't even pronounce their names.

On the battlefield at this time, Xiliang soldiers had the upper hand, and soldiers were constantly being killed by Xiliang soldiers, or died together with Xiliang soldiers. Liang Qiang only took one look, and then killed Xiliang soldiers again. He was lost in thought.

Although the soldiers following him were brave, they were not gods, but human beings. Human beings were made of flesh and blood, and soon fell off their horses during the charge.

But Liang Qiang still did not receive any fatal injuries, because the two soldiers fell down, and there were other soldiers rushing to Liang Qiang's side.

One, two, three, four, one after the other, Liang Qiang was always surrounded by soldiers to protect him. Rather than saying that they came to kill the enemy, it would be better to say that they came to assist Liang Qiang.

He didn't care about his own life or death, and he didn't care about how to form an formation. He only cared about Liang Qiang, blocking attacks for him and helping him kill the enemy.

This strange and frenzied fight, until all Xiliang soldiers died, there were only five people left on the entire battlefield.

Liang Qiang was covered with scars, and his whole body seemed to be soaked in blood, but he was one of the five people, and he was still alive.

The ground shook, and reinforcements like clouds finally arrived. Knowing that there were many bandits and enemies, the captain personally led the troops to come. After seeing this scene, the captain shouted excitedly: "Good warrior!"

He originally thought that he would only see corpses all over the place, and the Xiliang soldiers had won a complete victory and left.

Unexpectedly, these 50 vanguards killed a hundred Xiliang soldiers, and some of them survived.

"Good warrior!" the captain asked loudly, "Report your names."

The five people reported their names, and when they heard Liang Qiang, the school captain's eyes lit up: "Liang Qiang, it's Liang Qiang who won an award earlier and was promoted to the head of the village, and your father is Liang Sima, who has repeatedly done amazing tricks in the Left Wing Army? "

Liang Qiang replied yes.

The school lieutenant was even happier, looking at Liang Qiang, his eyes were shining brightly: "It's amazing, it's amazing, it's really amazing, Liang Qiang, if you are willing to come to my command, I will make you a military lord."

Junhou is a general in charge of at least 500 people.

To become a military lord is to be a real official.

"Liang Qiang, you are brave and good at fighting. I expected you to bring out a group of people like ordinary people, invincible."

He is brave and good at fighting, he earned this military title by himself, he wants more military exploits, he wants to be invincible and famous, Liang Qiang looked at the blood on her body, felt the pain all over her body, and clenched the fist in her hand With the long knife, his eyes didn't move down any further, so as not to fall on the corpses all over the ground.

He raised his head and said loudly: "Liang Qiang will live up to your high expectations!"

The captain laughed and looked at the other four: "You all come to my command too, and you will all be rewarded."

The other four responded loudly.

……

……

Liang Qiang stood in the barracks, looking at the collected corpses.

The corpses await unified cremation, and then the ashes and relics are returned to their respective homes.

The head and face are also covered, and the face cannot be seen. Everyone is covered with military robes and number plates.

Liang Qiang looked at the number plates one by one.

"Liang Junhou." A soldier called from the side, "Go and treat your wounds first."

From finishing the battlefield to returning, Liang Qiang never took a rest, let alone healed her wounds. She was still wearing a blood-stained military robe, and kept looking at the corpses of her companions like this, making other soldiers unable to bear it. Stop sighing.

"It's like this on the battlefield." A general came over to comfort him, "At the moment of life and death, we were talking and laughing together at the first moment, and at the next moment, Yin and Yang are separated."

"Don't be sad, they are fighting for the country and the people, and they deserve to die." A soldier said, "Being a soldier is for this day. We have all been prepared long ago. We are not afraid of death, and we are happy when we die."

Liang Qiang thanked them, he naturally knew these reasons, but what they didn't know was that many soldiers among them died for him.

In fact, it should be him who was lying here.

No, a long time ago, he died the first time he went to the battlefield. If it wasn't for those soldiers who protected him, he wouldn't have survived, let alone any rewards.

At first, he thought it was normal for peers to help each other.

But once, twice, three times, and then every time he went to the battlefield, he was protected by others.

Are these people on good terms with him?No, because of his sensitive status, he didn't interact with others in the army, and his relationships were mediocre, let alone life-threatening acquaintances.

Because he is the head of the village, did the soldiers voluntarily surround him?No, a small officer like the head of the army who is used to organize the team is not considered a general. He is no different from a soldier. If he dies, there will be no loss to the formation, and the soldiers don't need to keep him to win.

Many soldiers died to protect him, and some survived. When he thanked them afterwards and asked why he treated him like this, those soldiers were indifferent, only saying that they killed the enemy, and did not admit it.

Even if he is a fool, he knows that this is not normal, let alone he is not a fool.

It was arranged for him to join the army. Could it be that person also arranged for him to be protected on the battlefield?

He heard from his father that at the beginning, he just saw the little official from the northwest waiting outside the door, so he said something for him and asked the porter to let him in. That's all, it didn't save the Cai family of seven. Eight lives!

Not to mention whether a word is worthy of the other party's repayment, how could the old man surnamed Cai have such a great ability to make so many soldiers—or different soldiers, no matter where he went, even if he was temporarily assigned to the team before the battle? , There are soldiers guarding him to help him fight.

What kind of person can do this?

General Wei Chu Ling couldn't even do it!

Liang Qiang wanted to ask her father, tell him about this, and see if he knew what was going on, but——

This also let his father know that he was not really brave and good at fighting, and he did not win the reward himself.

It's nothing, my father is his own, so it's not ashamed to know.

I was afraid that my father would be cautious and stop this matter from continuing, in that case——

He can't guarantee that the next time he goes to the battlefield, he will be so honorable, or he will die directly.

"Liang Junhou!"
