Marry the Regent [Time Travel]

Chapter 54: Encountering a Night Attack

The news came so suddenly that both He Yuan and Xue Yunzhou were stunned for a moment. If someone said that someone sneaked up to the top of the mountain to assassinate, it was possible. Although the chance of success was very small, at least it was what they could have expected, but the so-called The huge army really confuses them.

Now is not the time for doubts, He Yuan hurriedly got out of bed and dressed, and said while getting dressed, "Call Song Quan and Gao Cheng over here!"

Gao Cheng was the new leader selected by He Yuan years later, because Song had too many affairs in his body, and Ding Yong brought most of the elite soldiers to supervise the road construction, so Gao Cheng was in charge of the remaining elite soldiers, and Song Quan specialized Responsible for matters related to the palace.

Seeing that Xue Yunzhou also sat up from the bed, He Yuan hurriedly took the clothes and put them on him: "The situation is still unclear, please slow down."

"Oh." Xue Yunzhou nodded, with doubts on his face, "I don't know who sent this, but we didn't notice any movement."

He Yuan frowned and thought for a while: "If it's a quick march coming from a distance, it's impossible for us not to detect it at all. These people can appear quietly, and it is very likely that they are nearby. Once they silence It is difficult for our guards to find out under the cover of night.”

Xue Yunzhou put on his clothes nimbly, and said, "Second brother, don't you think they came by coincidence? We have very few people we can use now, and most of the strong laborers and elite soldiers have gone to build roads. Even if we send letters, we will Can't wait until they come back to rescue."

"It is indeed a coincidence. They may know our situation very well, so they chose such a time period specially. After all, the movement here is more eye-catching. If they are really hiding nearby forces, it is easy for them to secretly understand us. Now The only thing that is unclear is their origin and purpose."

Just as they were talking, Song Quan and Gao Cheng rushed over. They obviously just got the news, and they were both a little anxious.

He Yuan ordered: "Gao Cheng, you arrange your men to meet the enemy, use bows and arrows, oil barrels, mountain rocks, all you can use, and report to me at any time if there is any situation. Song Quan, you go to Anton Mountain. Gather them all in one place and find a place to hide."

Gao Cheng and Song Quan left worriedly. They both knew that although the mountain was not big, the opponent was able to surround it. Obviously, there were a lot of people. The strength of the troops is enough, and now there are only one or two hundred people, which is obviously a drop in the bucket, and it is completely impossible to successfully retreat from the enemy.

He Yuan and Xue Yunzhou went up to the top of the mountain together. Looking down from here, you can see the torches that look like a dragon below. Some of the torches have begun to move up the mountain. According to the estimated length, the other party has at least 2 people.

Xue Yunzhou looked at the foot of the mountain: "There are so many temporarily resettled refugees below, and they are all without combat effectiveness. What should they do?"

He Yuan's face was solemn, and he was silent for a moment before he said: "There is no other way, we can't take care of ourselves, we can only hope that my reputation is too bad, if they feel that ordinary people have little value in my eyes, then they shouldn't deliberately embarrass these unarmed people. the weak."

Xue Yunzhou rubbed his cold nose: "I hope so. Fortunately, there is no unnecessary movement below. Those refugees may still be sleeping soundly in bed."

Now that they don't have any troops in their hands, they really have no power to deal with those people at the foot of the mountain, so they can only comfort themselves temporarily like this.

He Yuan said in a deep voice: "No, we must find support as soon as possible, we can't sustain it with so few people."

Xue Yunzhou nodded, quickly turned around and went back with him. When he was about to walk to the door, he saw Yan Guanyu coming, and his eyes lit up.

Yan Guanyu still looked like he was not in a hurry when the sky fell, and smiled at them both: "I have set up many traps on this mountain before, and I should be able to resist them for a while, but there are so many of them, the delay time is limited."

"There is a trap?" Xue Yunzhou was a little surprised, "It will take a while!"

He Yuan said directly: "Borrow your troops."

Yan Guanyu's raised foot froze suddenly, then slowly withdrew it, looking at him vigilantly: "Is it really just a loan?"

He Yuan frowned: "Now is not the time to joke, you are also on this mountain, without support, none of us can break out from here."

Yan Guanyu looked reluctant: "I can escape by myself, what's the benefit of borrowing from you?"

He Yuan thought for a while and said, "What conditions do you have?"

"Conditions... Let me think about it... Hey, what are you doing?!" Before Yan Guanyu finished speaking, Xue Yunzhou pushed him suddenly. He was afraid of touching Xue Yunzhou's stomach, so he didn't dare to move, so he just gave in so abruptly. He pushed into the room and was pushed to sit at the table again.

Xue Yunzhou stuffed a brush into his hand with a smile, and urged: "Stop talking nonsense, write a letter!"

Yan Guanyu stared angrily.

Xue Yunzhou chuckled: "Do you want to write it or not? I remember you stamped your seal at the end when you replied to Shantou last time. If you refuse to write it, I will call someone to search you!"

Yan Guanyu froze for a moment, then laughed loudly: "You are so stupid, so what if you found the seal? Do you still want to forge a letter? They can recognize my handwriting." After speaking, he glanced at him with a little complacency.

Xue Yunzhou looked at him, took the pen from his hand, and quickly wrote a letter in three or two strokes, and also returned a slightly smug look after finishing writing.

Yan Guanyu looked at his handwriting that was exactly the same as her own, her eyes widened in shock, she looked at him and then at the letter, trembling her fingers: "You you..."

Xue Yunzhou was a little anxious in his heart, and he didn't want to show weakness on his face, so he still had a provocative smile: "Do you want to search?"

Yan Guanyu gritted his teeth in grief and anger. Now that the situation is tense, he believes that Xue Yunzhou will definitely do what he says. Instead of humiliating himself, it is better to give him the seal and be a favor. Thinking about it this way, his attitude is a little loose up.

Xue Yunzhou seemed sure that he would agree, and shouted: "Yu Qing, go get the pigeon!"

"Okay, okay, I'll give it to you!" Yan Guanyu was discouraged immediately, and took out the seal from his bosom, pinched it in his hand, twisted it twice, and finally stamped it on the signature of the letter.

Xue Yunzhou breathed a sigh of relief, quickly put the letter away, and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry! I will repay you!"
