Cannon fodder is counterattacked by heartthrobs

Hezhou closed the city to guard against the Beimo army's sneak attack, but in the next ten days, there was no sign of Beimo people, and the city gate was calm, and the people in Hezhou except for the premonition that Beimo was closed at the beginning People might come and fight in the tension, as time passed, in the busy life, this kind of anxiety gradually dissipated, and the city was still calm, and even felt that it was a good thing that the Beimo army did not come, they were peaceful Life goes on.

However, the fact that the Beimo people did not come was not a matter of peace of mind for the generals of Hezhou.Xue Yi, deputy city guard, was ordered to defend the city. Seeing that the Beimo soldiers did not move at all, he was more fortunate than anxious. This means that when he was defending the city, he did not expect that the Beimo army would come to attack the city. It is not his fault. Clever, but Beimo Bing really didn't plan to come.

But unlike Xue Yi's reassurance, An Ranzai was obviously more worried.

If the Beimo people didn't intend to attack Hezhou, then there must be a next move. Could it be that they really want to attack Yaocheng?

However, Xue Yi persuaded An Ranzai, with disdain in his words: "Perhaps the Beimo people really thought they could take down Yaocheng, so arrogant and conceited, they thought Yaocheng could be opened so easily by them."

An Ran frowned, but did not speak. He felt that the Beimo people would not be so stupid to attack Yaocheng knowing that Yaocheng was not so easy to capture, but Beimo's calmness this time made him feel that Beimo People must have made big moves.

Seeing that An Ran was frowning and obviously worried, Xue Yi thought that An Ran was worried that after he returned to Hezhou with his troops without permission, the Beimo people did not attack, and he was worried that the court would make a fuss about it .

After all, the matter of defying the imperial decree and not rushing to help can be big or small, and punishment is inevitable.What's more, his father holds a heavy army, and it is inevitable that someone will make a fuss about it.

It was obviously different from An Ranzai's worried mood. As soon as An Ranzai stepped into the mansion, he saw Yi Leng taking Mr. Chen to bask in the sun under the big shame tree in the courtyard. Mr. Chen was crawling on the stone table, Yi Leng From time to time, he casually stretched out his fingers to tease him, and Young Master Chen let out a childish "giggle" laugh, trying to stand up, but he was unsteady and almost fell off the stone table. Yi Leng casually reached out to grab it, Young Master Chen laughed even more happily, and he put the child back on the stone table. The child found it interesting and continued to repeat the behavior just now.

In short, Yi Leng walks the baby very smoothly and casually, with a graceful and leisurely posture, which is very comfortable.

Tsing Yi and black hair, due to being trapped in the mansion, he has not yet changed his appearance. Looking from the side, playing with the children in the sun, the indifference seen in the past has faded away, and there is a soft light under the natural light, which seems to be a quiet time. The illusion made An Ran stop involuntarily.

Yi Leng turned his head sideways, his fingers were still being held by Young Master Chen, he looked at An Ranzai, saw him standing there looking at him motionless, couldn't help being surprised, and asked, "What's wrong?"

It was only then that An Ran came back to her senses, met Yi Leng's eyes, subconsciously felt her cheeks were hot, she felt ashamed of being caught after staring at someone, but Yi Leng's expression was unaware, Unavoidably feeling resentful in his heart, he spoke with some emotion, and said: "You are quite leisurely. When you come back and see you take care of the child, it is a bit like a husband coming home late and a wife working hard to take care of the child. You Could it be that taking the child brought out feelings, so you don't want to run away?"

After hearing this, Yi Leng was about to defend himself, but Young Master Chen grabbed a handful of his fingers and stuffed them into his mouth. He had no choice but to let go of Young Master Chen's hands and mouth, and pulled out his fingers. However, Young Master Chen saw Without the toy, Duzui was about to cry. Seeing this, Yi Leng had to give him his finger again, but be careful not to gnaw it on him.After these actions, Yi Leng just wanted to argue that he is not a child and his mother, which is completely untenable, and An Ran also finds it very interesting to see him like this, and even feels a kind of warmth inexplicably.

Yi Leng opened his mouth, and didn't mention the child at all. He just said: "Don't run away, I think this place is very good. You don't have to send someone to keep an eye on me, I will be fine if I am trapped in this mansion." If you feel bored, you have to go out to get some air, otherwise I will run if this boredom continues."

In fact, Yi Leng learned that Hezhou was closed, even if he could run out of An Ran's mansion, he would not be able to get out of the city gate, not to mention, maybe the closed city would be a safer place for him.Even though he can't get out now, Qi Yusheng and other powerful people from Qimen can't get in either.

But at present, he can only stay in the mansion, and it is inevitable that he cannot do some things.An Ran was looking at Yi Leng suspiciously. He was very skeptical about Yi Leng's words. After all, he had been deceived by Yi Leng once, and he knew that what Yi Leng was thinking would definitely not be what he said, but now the city It has been sealed, and Yi Leng can't run out, but he just wants to keep Yi Leng where he can see it.

So An Ran disagreed, and Yi Leng didn't give him a good face.An Ran was worrying about Bei Mo's affairs, she came to Yi Leng's place before she knew it, and wanted to sleep with Yi Leng at night, but Yi Leng kicked him out of bed many times, without giving him any sympathy. Indeed, he was not willing to yell at the soldiers to hold down Yi Leng and beat him up, but he thought it was a pastime to make a fuss.

Only Yi Leng felt that he was out of his mind.

Just when someone came to the mansion to discuss matters, An Ran was dragging Yi Leng to drink in the yard with a livid face, Yi Leng just didn't want to pay attention to him, and wanted to leave when he heard someone visiting, but stopped when he heard the name.

"Mr. Yu asks to see you."

An Ran glanced at Yi Leng, nodded, and said, "Bring him in directly."

Mr. Yu?Yi Leng thought, it seems that he only knew someone surnamed Yu...

Sure enough, in an instant, the personal guards brought in a thin man, still holding the coquettish feather fan, bowed down to meet him in a very literati style, and he couldn't help being surprised to see Yi Leng when he looked up.

The master is also a little surprised that Yi Leng is here with An Ran, and seeing An Ran next to him, it seems that Yi Leng is quite favored.

Yi Leng saw the master, thought that the master was here to discuss something, thought for a while, and figured it out, it seems that the master has been released a long time ago, and he is quite appreciated by An Ranzai, otherwise the master would not be able to report it casually. Come in.

Yi Leng had no choice but to go down first, and the master faced Yi Leng's gaze, just keeping his eyes straight, without any guilt.

"Mr. Yu, what's the matter?"

The master cupped his hands and said, "Suddenly there is something I can't figure out."

"What's the matter? Mr. Yu said it's okay."

"When did the scouts sent by General Xue come back? Why is there no movement at all? This is not true, maybe here is false, and there is also false, only other places are real."

An Ran's complexion changed, and he said, "Mr. wants to say..."

Literati like to talk without talking, and leave the rest for the other party to understand. It seems that they are beyond their reach, and they also need to reflect the wisdom of the other party.

Sure enough, An Ran immediately said with admiration: "Thank you, sir, for your guidance."

The master turned sideways to accept the gift, An Ranzai immediately said: "Please trouble me to go to the barracks with me, we need everyone to discuss and clarify this matter."

In the next few days, An Ran was very busy, and his complexion became more and more bad. Seeing that An Ran was laughing and playing differently than before, Yi Leng couldn't help but be surprised.

Because he was jumping and reading, the deepest image of An Ranzai was only the image of the snail at the beginning, and the neurotic attack of love-hate entanglement with Qi Yusheng, but now it seems that An Ranzai is obviously more than that. .

In the original book, An Ran died under Yuan Zaitu's intentional framing, but it was not entirely caused by Yuan Zaitu's framing, and it was also caused by the court's fear of his father's military power and the emperor's suspicion of him. I spotted these points and lit a fire here.

That night, a secret letter arrived at the barracks. It was not long ago that the North Gate Pass had fallen, and tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers had been killed.

It turned out that the Beimo people bypassed Hezhou, went secretly to Beimenguan, and killed the scouts at the scout station in Hezhou, making it impossible for them to report the situation and delaying the time.

All the generals in the barracks were speechless for a while, and they were all in grief. Someone asked sharply: "Why are the 16 soldiers at the border crossed so easily breached?! Where are the people?!"

Everyone asked indignantly, and a voice interjected: "The imperial court ordered the [-] troops from Beimenguan to go to Yaocheng for support."

Everyone looked at An Ran at the top, and someone immediately raised a question: "General Xiao will not do such a rash move!" Everyone knows that once the border is lost, it is equivalent to Beimo can enter and exit the land of no one. Experienced generals don't do things like this.

An Ran continued: "The one leading the troops is the Ninth Prince."

Everyone was silent, An Ran glanced at them, and said: "The Ninth Prince was sent to the North Gate to lead the troops, and the original intention was to hone him." He sneered, "It's good for him, he wants to come to the North Gate to be a hero. Only Old General Xiao will not bring half of his troops to Yaocheng for support so easily! It's a pity that he only thought of repelling the Beimo people and led troops out of the border!"

Speaking of this, the indignation in everyone's hearts was aroused. When An Ran was scolding the Ninth Prince, they also scolded with heartache. The blood was aroused. For a moment, they hated the Ninth Prince for ignoring the safety of the border. The [-] soldiers who stayed at the border were killed by the Beimo people in this way.

But late at night, when An Ranzai returned to the mansion, she let go of her face of indignation and came to Yi Leng's room indifferently. Yi Leng felt that something was wrong with An Ranzai.

An Ran seems to be unusually quiet tonight, and she would play and joke a little on weekdays.

An Ran was looking at him, and lay directly on the outside of the bed with his clothes on. Yi Leng thought for a moment that now was not the time to ask Ruan Xu. An Ran's eyes were very calm, and he just stated slowly: "The north gate is closed. , the [-] soldiers who stayed there died."

Yi Leng didn't know what to say, and repeated: "All dead?"

An Ran was silent for a long time, and said, "...No, there is still half of it."

This is someone else's family and country feelings, Yi Leng will not break the cold water, just said: "That's not good, at least half of it is left, and the green hills will remain."

An Ran was staring at Yi Leng, and Yi Leng wondered if he was in a daze, then he lowered his eyes, seemed to be sighing, and murmured: "... this... is it okay..."

Sacrifice half of the lives of the people to change the lives of more people.Is this a necessary sacrifice?

Yi Leng was also thinking about this question.

Then whose sons, whose husbands, and whose fathers are these people?

The secret letter of the Ninth Prince had already arrived in the hands of An Ranzai. The Ninth Prince had already received the news that Beimo might attack Hezhou. Yaocheng was just an illusion, but he did not transfer his troops to help Hezhou. Soldiers in the northern desert cut down trees and tied them behind the horses, so as to hide the hoof marks of the horses.They guessed that the people from Beimo had spent so much trouble not just for Hezhou, so they turned around and headed for Beimenguan when they were approaching Yaocheng.

If you want to go to Beimenguan, the shortest way is to go through Hezhou, but you haven't seen the Ninth Prince's army yet, so it can be seen that they haven't rushed to Beimenguan yet.

In the military camp stationed more than a hundred miles away from Hezhou, the main general camp was also silent.

The Ninth Prince pushed back the other generals, leaving only one person.

The man's eyes were always on the north gate on the map, and his misty eyes couldn't restrain the grief.

The two were silent for a long time, and the Ninth Prince finally spoke.

"It has to be done. If we don't do this, it is impossible for the people in the court to change because of this, and I still have to guard at the border. Now the people in the palace and the court are more and more jealous of us, so I have to come out first and then seek other people's schemes. And if we really rushed to the North Gate Pass, we may not really be able to save them."

The man pulled out a smile, a little bleak, and said: "How can I blame you, the north gate is closed like this, I have offered advice."

The Ninth Prince didn't know what to say anymore. Seeing his misty eyes, he couldn't help saying: "You have worked hard all these years..."

Ruan Xu smiled and said, "It's not easy for you in the palace."

The Ninth Prince didn't want to talk about the palace, and asked: "Where have you been these days? I'm worried if I can't find your whereabouts." Then he was a little dissatisfied: "The Ruan family should have been taken over a long time ago, if it wasn't for their eyes Why this?"

Ruan Xu said casually: "Now is not the time." He stroked his eyes and smiled, "Besides, it's not a bad thing to see clearly."

"It doesn't matter, I will make them feel bad anyway..." The Ninth Prince felt that Ruan Xu was a little different, it was the Ruan Xu he had never seen before, so he couldn't help asking: "Which girl do you like?"

Ruan Xu didn't answer him, just smiled lightly and shallowly, without saying anything.

"We'll be in Hezhou soon." His fingertips landed on the location of Hezhou on the map, and the person in his heart came to mind, and the smile on his lips became sweeter.

Seeing this, the Ninth Prince knew what was going on, so he stopped asking.
