Born short-lived

Zhou Zirong stayed in Silan for more than a month. When he returned, even Hua Xu had already entered the summer. The flames of war ignited the entire northern border, and even the soldiers and horses in the central region obeyed and rushed to the northern border to support without delay. .

Yuan Li was originally arranged by Zhou Zirong to be by Dong Sheng's side to help take care of him, but as soon as he lay down, he saw that Yuan Li had been waiting for him in the palace for several days, and his heart skipped a beat, an ominous premonition arose spontaneously.

About half a month ago, Dongsheng had just assembled the last batch of troops stationed in Handan, and the Sha'an people who had rested for more than ten days attacked again.

The dawn had just dawned in the east that day, and before the chill of the morning had been dispelled by the morning light, a strong murderous aura rolled over the endless wilderness in the north.

The first person to notice the enemy was a young scout on duty on the city tower. Through the lens of the telescope, he saw a slender black shadow overflowing from the skyline, and there was a faint commotion from far away.

"Your Highness!" The scout rushed down the tower without any delay, ran to Dong Sheng's door like a spinning top and knocked a few times hastily, "The people from Sha'an are here."

As soon as he finished speaking the last word, the door was opened from the inside. The person who opened the door was a young man he had never seen before. There was an ink mark between his eyebrows, and there was still a look of impatience on his face: "Hurry up!" What?"

The scout was stunned for a moment, unable to realize what was going on, and was hesitant to ask if he should ask, when a familiar voice came from behind the man: "Go and send a signal to the future."

While Dong Sheng was wearing his shoulder armor, he walked out in a leisurely manner. The man didn't intend to salute when he saw him coming, so he gave a very natural oh and was about to leave.

"Jiazi," Dong Sheng stopped him, didn't know what to say, opened his mouth but swallowed the words back, only said: "Forget it, you go."

Jiazi clicked his tongue very disrespectfully, and then channeled some spiritual energy under his feet, and disappeared in a flash.

Dong Sheng clicked his tongue looking at the direction in which the disrespectful person disappeared, and cursed in a low, half-joking voice: "Lawless."

The little scout was stunned for a while, seeing Dong Sheng's eyes shifted to him, he realized that he seemed to have forgotten to salute, and then remembered Dong Sheng's words just now, wondering if he was going to blame him, and quickly knelt down on one knee: "Your Highness."

Dong Sheng was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect to scare the kid, he couldn't laugh or cry for a moment, he waved his hand and said: "Okay, you go down too."

After the scout bowed his head and retreated, Dong Sheng lowered his head dazedly and pressed the black jade bead embedded in the bone between his eyebrows, feeling an unbearable swelling spreading from the place where the bead was inlaid. pain.

During this period of time, he has been having that dream about fire, especially when he once again summoned more than three Tiangang Lingwu at the same time, the illusion and the scorching and swelling pain that would erode his brain tortured him day and night. nerves.

He thought, this battle cannot be dragged on for long.

"Clouds."

Yun Xiao jumped up from the bottom of the city tower in response, and with a light churning in mid-air, he landed firmly on the stone pillar of the city wall: "Yes."

"You follow Ruoshui, and lead 5000 people around from the right." Dong Sheng said, kneading his brows unconsciously, "Slow down the movement."

Yun Xiao responded briefly, and turned over from the city wall more than ten feet high.

The Sha'an people moved faster than they expected, and they advanced several miles before the sun was fully bright. In the morning, they fought with the northern defenders two miles before Daomaguan.

The Sha'an people's weapons are durable and powerful, and they seem to have the same personality as their nation.The psychic cannon is twice the size of Hua Xu's light, no matter what the structure inside, the power of a cannon is always much stronger than Hua Xu's light psychic cannon.

And the latest long-range psychic cannons have not yet been allocated to northern Xinjiang, so the cannons closed in Daomacheng can't support the distant front lines.

Dong Sheng waited and watched calmly along the bronze mirror, watching the army in northern Xinjiang continue to retreat as he expected.

almost there...

He rubbed it between his fingers once and for all, trying to estimate the approximate time.

The artillery fire on the front line can't last for two hours, and it won't be long before they will return to Daomaguan.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

The Shaan people are natural fighters, not only unparalleled in courage, but also extremely alert. It is basically impossible for them to get into the trap by themselves.

And when these invincible Shaan warriors face off against this group of Huaxu's defeated generals, no matter how experienced they are, they will inevitably underestimate the enemy, and when they try to fight head-on for a few times , you will find that these Huaxu defenders are not only impatient, but also haven't brought enough spiritual supplies.

The Sha'an army did not doubt that he was there, and ran over him without hesitation.

And when they aggressively attacked the gate of Daomaguan City, they realized that something was wrong.

The Hua Xu soldiers and horses from the two teams appeared at unknown time and pressed over from the left and right rear.

One of the teams is the people from the past life belt. Before Dongsheng asked them to bypass Ningwu Pass, he wanted them to cut in from the rear when fighting the Sha'an people, and outflank them on both sides.Ningwu Pass is located between the Northwest Pass and Zijing Pass, easy to defend but difficult to attack, it will be more convenient to monitor the Northwest or support the downfall.

The other team had fewer people, and it was the team that Yun Xiao took over that morning. At that time, Dong Sheng was afraid that the Shaan people would be prepared, so he sent Yun Xiao and Ruoshui to wait at the right back, leaving a way out.

At this time, a little boy came up the steps behind the tower carrying a large tray almost two feet wide. There was a bronze epee on the tray, which made him stagger when he walked and was even more nervous. Xixi stared at the things on the tray, for fear of accidentally turning them out.

"Your Highness," Zhuo Yiming was still out of breath, but when he saw Dong Sheng, he didn't even dare to vent his breath, so he walked up to him very cautiously, his face flushed, "what you want."

Dong Sheng glanced at him squintingly, pretended to hum indifferently, then casually picked up the Rifting Wind Spirit Sword and hung it on his waist, picked up the rest of the stack of letter papers on the tray and dipped them in With a pen soaked in ink, he wrote a few big characters with a swipe, then folded it and put it in an envelope.

After so many years, Prince Dongsheng's handwriting is still so ugly that everyone is angry.

Dong Sheng intentionally and casually threw the envelope on his chest, curled his lips, and said simply and in horror: "Give it to Yuan Li."

Zhuo Yiming looked down at the big characters on the envelope that he didn't write well, and then looked up at the "disgusting adult" in front of him. He wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so he had no choice but to treat himself as a little adult and take a strict look. He replied: "Yes, Your Highness. I don't know if Your Highness has any other orders?"

Dong Sheng glanced sideways at his dignified young adult appearance, forced the corners of his mouth to twitch, and said in a cold voice pretending to be majestic: "No, come back to the city wall after you deliver it."

Zhuo Yiming nodded obediently: "I understand."

Dong Sheng waved his hand as if chasing a dog, his eyes filled with disgust: "Go."

Zhuo Yiming responded, and obediently went down with the letter in his hand.

Dong Sheng took another look at the bronze telescope mirror, hummed to himself, and then said to the messenger beside him, "Let the archers prepare."
