Peach Blossom Dyeing Jinge

Si Yutong was surprised: "Xiuchuan, why are you here?"

Bai Xiuchuan replied: "I came from the barracks. The lieutenant general said that he would discuss with my brother about tomorrow's formation, so I told him to go to the barracks. I will wait here instead of him."

"I see, thank you for your hard work." Si Yutong nodded to him.

Although her tone was warm, she felt a little disappointed in her heart, because she couldn't see Bai Yunfeng's face, the haze in her heart deepened.

Bai Xiuchuan and his elder brother are really different, no matter in appearance or temperament, they are not like biological brothers.Xiuchuan's appearance roughly corresponded to his name, with a childish face, as delicate as a girl, even Si Yutong couldn't help but feel ashamed when he saw him.

It's a pity that the handsome appearance is really not an advantage. Lord Bai Hou hoped to train his two sons to be independent generals, but Bai Xiuchuan repeatedly disappointed his father.He has a shy personality and is not good at speaking. His prestige among soldiers is far less than that of Bai Yunfeng. Compared with his talented elder brother, he is really too ordinary.

Even when facing Si Yutong, he still behaved very cautiously, shoulders stiffened, stepped forward, and handed the sword in his hand to Si Yutong.

This is Si Yutong's Frost Snow Sword, which was handed over to Yunfeng for safekeeping before entering the house, and Yunfeng handed it over to Xiuchuan.

Si Yutong stared at the sword, recalled Bai Yunfeng's face again, and couldn't help falling into deep thought.

Seeing that she was silent, Bai Xiuchuan looked even more embarrassed, and said hesitantly, "Brother, this is really a good sword."

Si Yutong woke up like a dream, and said: "Yes, this sword was given to me by Yunfeng, and it's called Shuangxue."

"Shuangxue?" Bai Xiuchuan murmured, his eyes resting on the cloud patterns on the sword's edge, there seemed to be a little worry in his eyes, he looked around, but he didn't say anything unnecessary.

Si Yutong looked at his expression and thought he was shrinking before the battle, so she patted him on the shoulder and said, "Xiuchuan, you are still young, why don't you stay in the city tomorrow..."

Bai Xiuchuan immediately shook his head and said: "How can I do that, I must go," he was speechless for a moment, and then added impatiently, "Does the eldest brother despise me as useless? In fact, I can also lead the army, I..."

Si Yutong saw that his face was flushed with anxiety, so she comforted him and said, "Don't worry, it's not like I haven't seen your martial arts before, and it's not inferior to me at all. How could I dislike you."

"Then...that's good." Bai Xiuchuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Si Yutong suddenly thought of something: "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, what reward do you want when we successfully recapture Anyi City?"

"A reward?" Bai Xiuchuan looked at him in surprise.

Si Yutong nodded and said, "Yes, you don't have to worry about it, just tell Big Brother what you want."

However, Bai Xiuchuan shook his head and said: "...what I want is already gone, so I don't want anything."

His expression seemed a little hazy, his head buried in the shadows, thoughtful.

Si Yutong really couldn't see what he was thinking, so she had to give up and said instead: "Rest early tonight, recharge your energy, tomorrow will be a fierce battle."

The next day was a cloudy day.

It is rainy in spring at the boundary of Jiangyu, and nine out of ten days are cloudy, but on this day, even the clouds are extremely low, and the river under the Liulong Bridge is also extremely turbulent.

The iron locks on the Liulong Bridge are intertwined, and the bridge deck paved with wooden planks is very wide. Even if it is exposed to the wind, it still does not sway and is as stable as the ground.This is the widest bridge in the Yu Kingdom. The bridge deck spans a hundred feet of the cold river, like six dragons driving side by side, with a vast momentum and exquisite workmanship.

However, this bridge is not powered by nature, but it is a miracle that hundreds of craftsmen finally built after sweating and sweating.

Now, for the first time, its spacious bridge deck welcomes thousands of troops.

The escorting team has reached the bridge, more than [-] people are mighty, and they slowly cross the cold river amidst the low-pitched blaring of horn horns, and the bright red flag flutters in the wind.

This cold river is also the border of Jiangyu. The boundary marker stands at the head of the bridge. As long as you cross the bridge, you will step out of the jurisdiction of Baijia.

Even so, Bai Yunfeng, the leader of the army, still looked calm and moved forward in a calm manner.

On the opposite side of the river, there are already people waiting.The same flag is fluttering, the same horn is humming.

The mountain road narrowed and widened, like the narrow mouth of a funnel, and the pick-up team gathered at the mountain pass to firmly block the way out of Baiyun Peak.

On the distant mountain, there are shadows, 5 horses gather along the mountain, forming a "Crouching Tiger Formation".This array is weak in the front and strong in the back, and its weakness lies in the two wings, but the two wings are towering mountains, which can make up for its shortcomings.

The opponent had already thought it through and came prepared.

Si Yutong rode the horse beside Bai Yunfeng and exchanged a look with him.The latter gave an order, and a hundred flags waved together, causing the team behind to stop.

The two armies met on a narrow road, with a distance of more than ten feet between the forwards. After the sound of footsteps stopped, the silence seemed extremely solemn.

The leader of the army was General Song Xiang. His face was quite vicissitudes, his temples were slightly white, and he was riding on the back of a pitch-black horse, with a calm and composed expression.

Compared with Song Xiang, Bai Yunfeng is like a newborn calf meeting a tiger.It was the first time for him to lead an army to face such a huge battle, but the people around him seemed to have given him endless courage. He rode forward, facing Song Xiang's scrutiny alone, and said in a voice: "My subject Bai Yunfeng , I was ordered to escort the prince into the capital, the matter is of great importance, and I hope the general will get out of the way."

Of course Song Xiang would not give way, he just stopped where he was, and replied: "The prince will be escorted by us, and you can retreat here."

Bai Yunfeng said: "Unless I see the imperial decree with my own eyes, I will not be able to trust others' oral instructions."

Song Xiang's face darkened: "Young man, if you don't retreat, you will be disrespecting the order. You should know the consequences in your heart."

Bai Yunfeng showed no signs of fear, and replied: "I have no intention of resisting the order, I just perform the duty of escort."

Song Xiang said: "You are so stubborn, it will inevitably make people suspicious."

Bai Yunfeng asked: "What's suspicious?"

Song Xiang sneered: "I don't think the Bai family fabricated a fake prince for the sake of disobedience."

"Jokes are not allowed for important matters of the monarchy!" Bai Yunfeng sternly reprimanded.

At the same time, the people hiding in the forest on the two wings also gritted their teeth.

Those were the Jianghu people led by Di Dongqing. They were not soldiers, so naturally they did not go with the escorting team, but under Di Dongqing's leadership, they followed secretly all the way.

Di Dongqing said in a deep voice: "Everyone, don't act rashly. If the two armies are at war, follow the plan."

A Jin beside him cast his gaze far away, looked at the towering mountain opposite, and murmured: "If so many people really fight, I don't know what the consequences will be..."

As soon as the words fell, Liang Xiao whispered in her ear: "Little girl, don't ask for now. If you know too much, you won't be surprised."

"It's better to avoid this kind of surprise." A Jin stuck out her tongue, then stopped making a sound, and then watched the situation of the two armies from a distance.

In the mountains and fields, tens of thousands of pairs of eyes looked at the two people in front of the formation.

Song Xiang seemed to have lost his patience, and said sharply, "If you don't retreat again, don't blame me for being rude."

Bai Yunfeng looked at him, his heartstrings were like a taut bow, and in the next moment it would turn into an arrow, galloping to break the silence.

"Wait!" It was Si Yutong's voice that broke the silence first.

She rode forward, crossed Bai Yunfeng's shoulder, and faced the thousands of troops directly: "General Song, this trip is all because of my Si Yujing. If the general has any doubts about my identity, it is better for me to prove it myself." .”

Song Xiang sized him up and asked, "How can I prove myself?"

Si Yutong raised her head, and said word by word: "I will fight with you single-handedly, so as to replace the battle between the two armies, how about it?"
