Estranged

"Xiang Ying, I want you to go to northern Xinjiang." Sima Xun said to Xiang Ying.

Xiang Ying's complexion suddenly turned ugly, "Hmph, what are you trying to persuade them to do if they don't know how to praise you!" Having said that, he also knew that the Black Cavalry Army was very important to Dayan. There is a trace of expectation that I don't want to admit, and I carefully press it down in my heart.Maybe subconsciously, I don't want to make myself small?

"It's not just for reconciliation." Sima Xun glanced at him, frowned and said slowly: "Heguda is coming in menacingly. He is stationed near Tanzhou to fight against the black cavalry all day long. He even sent people to intercept the delivery of supplies. It must pass through the plank road. The road is blocked by heavy snow, and Wuzhou and Youzhou cannot be reinforced."

The more Xiang Ying heard the frown deepened, thinking of the bitter cold in northern Xinjiang, the heavy snow that could reach his knees, almost crushed the cup in his hand, and put it heavily on the table. not good!"

"The Tartars are too rampant, Your Majesty, why don't you let the minister lead the troops to deliver the supplies!" Yun Fengmian said.

"Wouldn't it be overkill for you to deliver food and fodder, a majestic and powerful general? Or should you concentrate on training your troops? You should also concentrate on training your troops so that you can go to battle and kill the enemy and rule the world for the emperor." Liu Qingshu said with a light smile, Feng Mian did not I don't know what happened in the past, Xiang Ying should solve this kind of matter, maybe there will be surprises.

Sima Xun was expressionless and hesitated, "According to the report from the border, Yue Xiaoyi's old injury relapsed during the battle...it's not optimistic."

Xiang Ying stood up when he heard the words, "It's urgent in Beijiang, I'll go back and prepare to go." Seeing this, Sima Xun nodded, "Be careful on the road." The three watched him go out, Liu Qingshu looked at Xiang Ying's tightly clenched hand Shaking his head with both fists, as long as he encounters something related to Yue Xiaoyi, this person will no longer be able to maintain absolute calm as usual.

Being able to stay calm all the time is just because you haven't met enough people who care.But when these two people met, it was not suitable for them to be thousands of miles away, in the city of Tanzhou.

Since Yue Xiaoyi fought against Heguda that day, Heguda has not calmed down.Relying on the cavalry they grew up on horseback, they came to harass and attack at night at every turn, and withdrew if they could not take advantage.

According to the information obtained by the liar, the soldiers brought by Heguda came from afar in the sneak attack that night.Seeing this, Heguda stabilized and encouraged the army with the most believed theory of divination from the gods in Rouran.He told everyone that he had received God's revelation in a dream, and that if he raised his troops overnight before the first snow stopped, he would surely win a complete victory and severely injure the Black Cavalry Army.This is why the morale of Rouran soldiers was high when Yue Xiaoyi faced the battle that day. If Yue Xiaoyi retreated after the wound was opened that day, Heguda would definitely take advantage of the momentum to pursue.The only surprise is that Yue Xiaoyi fights him to the end and shoots down Rouran's flagpole.

Compared with Rouran's occasional intrusions, what worried Yue Xiaoyi even more was that the supplies for the winter in Tanzhou City were blocked on the plank road from Ruzhou to Tanzhou, and the other states could not provide support.As for the imperial court, who knows what they think, in short, they can't afford to wait no matter what.I can only take people to the plank road by myself, and attack back and forth to transport the materials back.

Determined, Yue Xiaoyi immediately went to Ji Yingxing to discuss the matter, but was opposed by everyone.Jiang Lai and others are worried that Yue Xiaoyi's injury has not healed, and they are worried that she will lead the army to break through.In the end, Yue Xiaoyi persuaded Jiang Lai and Ji Yingxing to defend the city more safely, but she led people to leave quietly under cover.

It went smoothly at the beginning, and Yue Xiaoyi led the people out of Tanzhou without Heguda noticing, heading towards Ruzhou.After Yue Xiaoyi left, Ji Yingxing just couldn't defend, to preserve his strength, and poured river water on the city wall to freeze it into solid ice.

And Yue Xiaoyi had to drive hundreds of miles, but the snow was too thick, and the road was difficult even on horseback.In addition, some mountain roads and forests are so cold that my hands and feet are frostbitten and cracked. I don’t feel it when I’m cold, and it hurts and itches when I’m warmed by the fire. It’s really sad.

Gritting his teeth like this, he arrived at the plank road immediately, but suddenly a team of Rouran army appeared.There is not much difference in the number of the two sides fighting, but it must be a fierce battle that cannot be flanked by the army that is transporting supplies.

Yue Xiaoyi's fingers were almost swollen from the cold, he kept shooting arrows from the quiver, and when the enemy approached, he drew out his sword and fought hard against the enemy.The enemy general held a pair of sledgehammers, which were extremely powerful. Although Yue Xiaoyi was weak in strength, he could defeat him after a fierce battle.It's just that this time is different from the past, she already had an old injury on her shoulder, and she was seriously injured when she rescued Lu Meisheng before.In this way, it is quite difficult to deal with this person, but you can't avoid him. Otherwise, if this person hits you a few times, your side will undoubtedly lose.Even if he raised his sword to block it, his shoulders would hurt. Yue Xiaoyi had no choice but to avoid the opponent's attack as much as possible, focus on attacking the opponent's mount, and find his flaws by the way.

With a sound of "boom", the man called again, Yue Xiaoyi swung his sword to resist but was knocked off his horse.Yue Xiaoyi stabbed at the man's horse's belly, and rolled to avoid the horse's hoof.

The man fell off the horse and fought with Yue Xiaoyi, Yue Xiaoyi saw the opportunity and stabbed him with a sword, who knew that the man went crazy because of this and kicked Yue Xiaoyi several meters away.With the last effort, he raised the hammer and ran over to hit Yue Xiaoyi.Yue Xiaoyi wanted to evade, but found that his whole body was in pain and it was difficult to get up, and a fishy sweetness welled up in his throat.

Is it going to be over, I really won't see you again in the future.

Yue Xiaoyi thought this way, but the man fell down with a sudden bang, Yue Xiaoyi looked up, and saw that the fallen man had a sword stuck in his body, and in the distance was a man dressed in black, with a white horse galloping under him come.
