My Princess Has Been Reborn

At the end of October, there was a lot of light snow falling in the capital, which looked gentle and beautiful at first glance.

In the same month at the end of October, the northern Xinjiang was ravaged by wind and snow, and no matter how thick the fur coat was, it was difficult to resist the overwhelming cold. This kind of weather, not to mention the freezing cold, was also unimaginably severe for people in the south.

With a "huh", someone exhaled heavily, and the hot air immediately condensed into a white mist in front of his eyes, which was so hazy that it almost completely blocked people's sight.He stepped out, stepped on the snow, half of his leg sank in suddenly, the whole person was caught off guard and lost his balance, and almost fell forward, but fortunately, he was pulled by his companion, so he didn't fall all over the snow .

With lingering fear in his heart, he stepped on his foot that was stuck in the snow, and then put his other foot down, only to find that there was a small slope in front of him.It's a pity that it was covered by this heavy snow, and the whole place looked flat, with small pits and small slopes and rocks, all hidden under the snow and invisible.

"There is a slope ahead, be careful." He reminded his companions behind him aloud, and then he folded branches to explore the way ahead.

A group of people stumbled forward, every step in the snow was quite exhausting, and they had already walked like this for a day and a night, no matter how hard they were, their physical strength would be exhausted.Finally someone couldn't help but ask, "When are we going?"

The leader took a breath and replied, "Let's go to Jingcheng to have a look. Let's go too slowly, Pingcheng has been destroyed, and the nearest is Jingcheng."

Most of this group are not natives of northern Xinjiang. They are newcomers, at most they just read the map, and they don't know how far Jingcheng is.So after walking a few steps, someone asked again, "How far is Jingcheng?"

The leading Beijiang man stood still and breathed a sigh of relief, and looked back at the line of people.There were more than twenty people, with only three horses. Not only were they exhausted after a day and night of trekking, but even the three horses that carried the people were also panting from exhaustion.He didn't think it would work like this, so he looked around but couldn't find a suitable place to rest: "We still have to go south for a day. If we can't walk, we need to find a place to rest first."

As soon as this remark came out, no one refuted it, and just kept their heads on the road, but the string in my heart didn't know whether to tighten or loosen.

The accident happened the night before.Huaicheng, which was originally located behind the army, was peaceful and comfortable. The crown prince personally guarded the city, and [-] troops were stationed in the city.But just the night before, someone opened the gate of the city, and three thousand soldiers entered the city silently.

Fighting, chaos, fire, howling...

The prince went into battle in person and led the Liang army to defend against foreign enemies, but did he know that betrayal was just behind him?In the end, it was a team of Habayashi who desperately rescued the prince, but Huaicheng, which was rebelled, fell completely, and they took the injured prince on the road to escape.

Pingcheng was originally the nearest place, it was the logistics granary of the army, and the third prince was also in charge there.But the fleeing group never imagined that Huaicheng fell just now, and Pingcheng fell even faster than Huaicheng!

A group of people rushed to Pingcheng in vain, and even almost sent themselves and the prince to the door.Fortunately, there were a few veterans of the Northern Xinjiang Army who escaped together, and they realized something was wrong from a distance, so they escaped with them.It's just that there is no hope for Pingcheng, and it is really difficult to travel in this icy and snowy place if we have to go to the next city.

Finally, everyone found a sheltered slope at the foot of the mountain.Many people sat down on the ground as if they were exhausted, and they no longer had the strength to stand up when they slackened. Then fatigue, sleepiness, cold, and hunger came one after another, almost crushing the young Habayashi.

Most of the people had already collapsed to the ground, only a few people were still guarding the three horses, and they were helping the riders down at the moment.

Three horses carried three people, and the crown prince was one of them.His lips were pale, but his face was flushed abnormally. One could tell at a glance that he was having a fever, which was the aftereffect of the wound that hadn't been treated in time.

Although the prince was a little dazed with fever when he was helped off the horse, he was still awake.Shaking his head unresponsively when being questioned, he said weakly: "I'm fine." Then he cheered up and asked: "How are you two?"

What the prince asked was naturally the people on the other two horses, one horse was carrying his servant, and the other was his prince Wei Shi.The latter fought bravely for him, blocking the enemy's back, but the former blocked the deadliest knife for him when he was attacked by someone.The condition of the two of them is not good now, at least the injury is much heavier than that of the prince.

Someone had already investigated the situation of the two of them, and the tone of the report was not easy: "Both adults have fallen into a coma."

The prince was relieved when he heard the words, at least he was still alive.

The group rested on the spot and tried their best to light a bonfire to dispel the cold.However, everyone is still facing difficulties, and the first one is hunger. When the city is broken, they flee in a hurry, and no one would think of bringing dry food.After breaking out of the siege and rushing for another day and night, everyone is already hungry, and what's more terrible is the ice and snow, and they can't find prey even if they want to hunt.

Someone looked at the tied horses and saw them throwing away the snow and mud to find grass roots to eat on the ground. They couldn't help holding their stomachs and saying enviously: "It's great that they can find something to eat."

The voice fell, but the person was already so tired that he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Except for a few people who stayed alert, most of them fell asleep quickly.They formed a circle, barely protecting the prince in the center, and also left him the position closest to the fire.

At this moment, two personal guards were surrounding the prince, helping him to treat the wound.

Unbuttoning the heavy fur coat, the apricot-yellow clothes inside were almost soaked with bright red blood.Up to now, the blood color has congealed and darkened, but it is still shocking.There is a serious wound on the prince's right shoulder, which was caused by someone slashing him from behind with a knife. Sheren discovered it quickly, pushed the prince away and blocked half of the blade, otherwise the knife would have gone straight It struck the Prince's back neck directly, directly killing him.

The personal guards carefully unwrapped the temporarily bandaged wound, the blood scabs coagulated and stuck to the cloth, but the prince had to deal with the fever wound.In the end, the personal guard could only grit his teeth and confess, and then tore off the stuck cloth in one breath.

The prince gritted his teeth and let out a muffled snort, and bright red blood sprang out immediately.

Seeing this, the vigilant Northern Xinjiang veteran hesitated for a moment before handing over a wine bag. Facing the prince, he was obviously a little nervous and hesitant: "It contains strong wine. It will be better to wash with this after injury..."

The prince had no doubts, and even thanked him, and asked the guards to check that the spirits were fine, before pouring them on the wound.

The heart-piercing pain, the prince was covered in cold sweat and almost collapsed from the pain, he just felt that he had never suffered such a crime in his life.But in the end he still gritted his teeth and endured it, and only waited for the pain to subside, and then ordered in a hoarse voice: "Take the medicine."

The guards frantically reapplied the medicine and bandaged him—the wound medicine, after going to the battlefield, everyone remembers to prepare some.Ordinary sergeants may not be able to prepare wound medicine, but at least Habayashi and the prince's personal guards are not short of medicine.

After cleaning the wound with strong wine, and applying the best medicine for sores, the prince's brain, which was originally burnt and bewildered, was completely awake from the pain.

He raised his sleeve to wipe the cold sweat off his face, and the hot breath he exhaled condensed into mist: "Where is this now? What's the situation?"

The personal guard collected the medicine and returned the wine pouch to the veteran of Northern Xinjiang, and replied: "Your Highness, Huaicheng has been broken, and Pingcheng is also lost. We are going to Jingcheng now. It is said... Go another day."

The prince was obviously shocked when he heard that Pingcheng was lost. He sat up abruptly, and the wound that had just been bandaged almost burst open again: "How could it be? The rebels in the city paused again, and asked in a heavy tone after a while: "Where is the third prince? Has he escaped?"

A group of people went to Pingcheng before, and the veterans from Northern Xinjiang even went to investigate. Hearing this, he replied: "The third prince abandoned the city and fled from the beginning."

They don't know how Pingcheng was broken for the time being, but news spread that the third prince abandoned the city and ran away.The prince actually didn't blame him after hearing this, if Pingcheng was really in the same situation as Huaicheng, the third prince would be wise to protect himself if he could run away early.

Just thinking about this matter is still bad, the prince sighed after a while, and said: "Let's go to Jingcheng as soon as possible."

In the current situation, even though the news is limited, the prince obviously feels bad.Both Huaicheng and Hepingcheng are very important at this time. The former represents the location of the prince. After being broken, it is like beheading. The impact on the morale of the army can be imagined.And the latter is an important place for the granary, and the importance of money and grain to the war is also beyond doubt.It can be said that the sneak attack of the Rongjun this time can be described as a remarkable achievement, and it is even expected to change the situation of the battle!

At this time, even if the prince is only alive, he must appear in front of people as soon as possible to revive the morale of the army.What's more, he still had worries in his heart, fearing that Jingcheng would change again if he went too late, and it would be even more difficult for the group of them to go to the next city.

The group of people rested for half a day without eating, and finally had to swallow some snow to make their stomachs empty, and then started the journey again.

When it was dark, they met another group of people.The team of 600 people, wearing Liang Guo's military uniforms, and their armor was stained with blood made them look embarrassed, but they were just a group of remnants who were defeated from Pingcheng and were also preparing to flee to Jingcheng.

The two sides met, and after probing, the prince revealed his identity and easily gathered the remnant soldiers.

From the mouths of these remnant soldiers, the prince managed to piece together some of the circumstances of the destruction of Pingcheng—extraordinarily similar to what happened in Huaicheng, the sudden arrival of the army, the city gate was opened by someone, and then a night of chaotic fighting, Pingcheng was destroyed.

Obviously, there are internal responses in the two cities, which makes the prince even more worried.However, meeting this group of remnant soldiers was a solution to the urgent need of the prince, because from these remnant soldiers, the prince and the others finally got some food, barely able to feed themselves.

Then the integrated team continued to rush to Jingcheng, and encountered many disabled soldiers one after another on the way.The prince didn't blame them for their defeat, they all gathered together, and before they reached Jingcheng, there were nearly 2000 people behind him.

What is even more fortunate is that Jingcheng has not been broken.
