Cannon fodder is counterattacked by heartthrobs

Ruan Xu's expression was slightly stagnant, the Ninth Prince couldn't bear it, and looked at An Ranzai with some dissatisfaction in his eyes, so he had to explain first.

"Besides this method, there is no better way to make the soldiers follow us without going back to Hezhou, and we didn't really expect that Beimo would really come to attack Hezhou."

Ruan Xu's face was moved, his lips moved slightly, and he lamented: "But that's too cruel..."

The massacre of Taiyue City, the first city Beimo attacked, spread across several countries. Blood flowed into rivers overnight, and corpses were everywhere. It is said that the fire in the city did not stop for three days and three nights.Even the small city of Xu has not escaped the claws of Beimo.

The fire of that night is still in his memory, even though there are important people around him, the screams in his ears are still creepy and chilling.How many people fell under those flames, and how many corpses were trampled under Bei Mo's hooves, even Mr. Chen, who was loyal to the country, almost broke his door.All the way out of Weicheng, the places he passed were shocking, and even he himself was almost killed by the swords of Beimo soldiers.

How does this allow those innocent people in Hezhou to survive?Even if it is fortunate that Beimo does not slaughter the city, but living under the rule of the enemy country, isn't it living in fear every day, under the threat of death?

None of this is what they deserve.

The Ninth Prince looked at Ruan Xu's expression becoming sad, and knew what Ruan Xu was thinking in his heart. He couldn't help thinking that Ruan Xu seemed to join him after coming out of Weicheng, thinking of the tragic image of Weicheng...

The Ninth Prince couldn't help but lamented. Although he couldn't bear it, he could only continue to say:

"Those who achieve great things must learn to let go. Otherwise, do we really only stay in Hezhou? Stick to one side of the city? Maybe this kind of thing will happen again in the future."

Although this remark was to comfort Ruan Xu, it was actually an excuse for himself.

Ruan Xu muttered to himself: "Abandon? Beimenguan also abandons... Hezhou also abandons... Is that what life means? Give up and give up..."

An Ran, who has always been cold-eyed, sees this, and he does not have the feeling of pity for the Ninth Prince.Although this was something that had been expected a long time ago, he was also in a very bad mood at the moment.

Also badly needed a vent.

He brought up what he just said again, and said it again mercilessly: "Isn't this method of abandoning Hezhou exactly what you proposed at the beginning?"

In fact, Ruan Xu did propose a similar method. It was just that he talked with the Ninth Prince about the matter of Tibetan soldiers in Wuyue Mountain that night. Assemble an army at his disposal and in whom he can be trusted.

At that time, Ruan Xu thought for a while, and then said such a strategy.That is, the Ninth Prince took the opportunity to lead troops out to encircle and suppress the Beimo soldiers, and An Ran was leading troops out, if the timing was right... Here, he was very hesitant when he said it, and it was the Ninth Prince who asked repeatedly before he continued.

"Leave some old soldiers in the city at that time, if you can't resist..." He didn't say it clearly after that, the words were too cruel, and he couldn't bear to say any more.

What's more, he didn't expect to use this strategy to let An Ran's Hezhou Army fall into the hands of the Ninth Prince.Not to mention that An Ran would hand over the soldiers to the Ninth Prince in such a single-handed manner, and even ruined his own reputation.

But what he didn't notice was that when he uttered this strategy, the Ninth Prince's eyes lit up and he was thoughtful.

The Ninth Prince looked at An Ranzai in disapproval, but An Ranzai's temper has always been difficult to control, and he couldn't directly quarrel with him, so he could only say: "Ah Xu mentioned it to me at the beginning, but he seemed to only mention it. It’s just coming out. At the same time, I also hope that I will be cautious, and I didn’t…”

"That's all right!" An Ran interrupted the Ninth Prince, his face seemed to be covered with a layer of black mist, which was very ugly, staring at Ruan Xu who was in deep thought, and said: "Since you also thought about this method at the beginning, it shows that You've thought about it too. We've just implemented it. Why pretend to be so virtuous?"

The room was silent, Ruan Xu raised his eyes to look at An Ranzai, the eyes of misty rain had been frozen, and the slightest trace of rain had turned into ice picks, but at this moment, he could also see that An Ranzai's mood was not right.

Now that the matter has come to this point, Ruan Xu didn't try to excuse himself. If he thinks about it carefully, he is indeed responsible for this matter. Who can say that he doesn't have such an idea?

Ruan Xu gave a bleak smile, ignored the worried eyes of the Ninth Prince, looked at An Ranzai, and asked, "Then why did you do this?"

Hezhou was where An Ranzai was stationed. Now that the Deputy City Guard of Hezhou has surrendered, even if the court doesn't think that it is his instigation, it is still easy to catch him with this.Moreover, it is not possible for everyone to really hand over all their troops and sacrifice their reputation.

In fact, the Ninth Prince also wanted to know the answer.He has always felt that although An Ran is cooperating with him, he has always been unpredictable, and he is not actually a firm ally, but this time the incident really exceeded his expectations.

An Ran supported the table with both hands, his right hand was scratched by the sword just now, and now it was wrapped with thick cotton cloth, and he slapped it on the table at this moment, feeling no pain at all, the wound burst again due to this action, white There were traces of blood oozing from the cloth.

Both looked at An Ran, waiting for his answer.

Unexpectedly, An Ranzai's tone was very indifferent, to an unusual degree.

"After all, my surname is An, not Gu."

Gu is the surname of the current emperor, and the ninth prince is also called Gu Yanjun.

Everyone was stunned, and An Ran continued: "No matter how close I am, I'm not the Gu family. If the army is in my hands, everyone will only fear me. But if it's in your hands, at least the one above will not For you, I will be very reassuring."

Even if he is the emperor's own nephew, but that is only a nephew, not a surname.Whether the army falls into the hands of his own son or a man with a foreign surname is more at ease, anyone can think clearly.

But they didn't expect that An Ranzai would think so thoroughly, and even see it so openly, that he could really let go of the army while being open-minded.

An Ran turned around to look at Ruan Xu, looking directly at him, her usually feminine and pretty face did not have the usual frivolous feeling at all, but now it was formal and dignified, Ruan Xu also looked directly at him, even though Ruan Xu still had injuries on her body, But the momentum is not lost at all, gentle but will not back down.

An Ran said to him word by word: "Hezhou is my garrison, and I have stayed longer than you. Xue Yi was my father's former subordinate. If you want to talk about friendship, the friendship between me and him Deeper than you. He made such a move, and now that Hezhou has fallen, can I be half as sad as you?" After finishing speaking, An Ranzai ignored them and walked out of the tent.

Ruan Xu's eyes changed slightly, looking at the back of An Ran walking out.

Only now did he truly see the essence of An Ranzai, which seemed to be only on the surface before.

"Ah Xu..." The Ninth Prince called out to him, but Ruan Xu interrupted him.

"I'm tired, so I'd better go back and rest first. I can't help you if I'm still injured. Isn't the army going to the Wuyue Mountains? You should make plans earlier." Ruan Xu also strode out, even with a There are injuries, but the back is still straight, thin but like a pine and cypress that does not bend, it grows gently, but the wind keeps blowing.

When I went out, I never looked back from the beginning to the end.

Ninth Prince Ben took a step forward, and slowly retracted the hand he wanted to support.

He told himself, it doesn't matter, if something big happens, Ah Xu will understand him sooner or later.

When Ruan Xu got out of the camp, the first thing he looked for was the figure, but he was no longer in the original place. His expression was slightly sad, but he saw An Ran shouting something not far away.

As soon as An Ran stepped out of the camp, her face was gloomy, her mood was not good, she couldn't see Yi Leng, and she was still shouting at this moment: "Where is he?! Didn't he let me guard here?!"

A personal guard hurriedly stepped forward to explain: "Just now, Chen's personal guard was called away temporarily." Seeing that An Ran's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and his head was covered with cold sweat, as soon as he saw Yi Leng coming over, he immediately said: "General, Chen's personal guard is back!" Quickly rolled aside.

Yi Leng stepped forward, but was scolded by An Ran in the face, his expression was a bit dazed, but in the public, he could not talk back or refute, he could only quietly vent his anger next to An Ran's.

Anyway, you can't lose a piece of meat if you scold him, whatever you want.

When Ruan Xu saw this scene, his eyes were full of distress.

The person he held on top of his heart was wearing a personal guard at the moment, standing there so quietly, with his head slightly bowed, being scolded, and all of this was not the anger he deserved.

Ruan Xu ignored the obstruction of the guards, and immediately stepped forward. An Ran was stunned when he saw Ruan Xu, and then looked at Yi Leng in front of him, especially when he saw Yi Leng looking at Ruan Xu with surprised eyes, his heart was even more angry .

Ruan Xu stood in front of Yi Leng, his voice was still warm, but his tone was a little colder, he looked directly at An Ran, and said: "It seems that it is just a misunderstanding, why is General An so aggressive? He is just a personal guard." .”

An Ran was sneering: "Forcing people? Is Staff Yan saying that this general is forcing my personal guards? What actions have I taken to force him? Could it be that my personal guards can't say anything, and you want Staff Yan to teach me how to do things? "

Ruan Xu's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he didn't give in at all. He replied, "Of course I don't dare to intervene, but my actions are nothing more than words. Words are as sharp as a knife. In ancient times, there are officials who use words as tools..."

"General, it's the fault of the humble rank! The humble rank is willing to be punished!" Yi Leng interrupted Ruan Xu's words, Ruan Xu turned around and looked at him in surprise.

"Thank you Mr. Yan for your kindness. But the general didn't force you to take a low position. I hope Mr. Yan won't misunderstand." Yi Leng lowered his head slightly and didn't look up at Ruan Xu, so he could only grit his teeth and continue talking, but his misty eyes were full of sadness, It penetrates everywhere, like a thin needle piercing towards Yi Leng.

An Ran looked at Yi Leng, his face was still stinky, but he stopped talking, waved his sleeves and left, and Yi Leng hurriedly followed behind him.

After walking a long distance, Yi Leng could still feel that line of sight following closely behind him.

Knowing that the army is about to turn around and go to the Wuyue Mountains, Yi Leng is a little surprised, but thinks of the surrender of Hezhou, and the strategy of letting the army go to the Wuyue Mountains at this time, implementing the strategy of hiding troops in the mountains, and then counterattacks to Beimo.

This is still a bit weird, and it can't be said that he got any rumors, but he feels that the timing and coping strategy are too smooth, which makes people suspicious.

But even though he felt strange, Yi Leng still didn't ask any more questions, and simply nodded.

An Ran was upset, and satirized him: "You still don't ask anything. If you are told to follow, you will really follow, no matter where you go? I'm really not afraid of betraying you."

This will be in the camp, and Yi Leng is about to fight back: "If you really betray me, why don't I know how to run away? If not, I can take you with me before I leave."

"Now you know how to argue, why did you pretend to be like a quail in front of that person just now?"

Yi Leng said, "I'm just saving face for you."

An Ran was sneering, obviously not believing it.Yi Liang got up and walked out, he asked, "Where are you going?"

Yi Leng said: "I'm going to watch the night." Glancing at him, "Why do you want to stay here and be blamed by you?"

An Ran was also very annoyed to death at this moment, so she didn't stop Yi Leng, but seeing how straightforward he was, she still couldn't help saying: "You are still really cold and cold. You didn't even ask Mr. Chen from Hezhou."

Yi Leng opened the curtain for a moment, without looking back, he just said indifferently: "The more you know, the harder it is to get out." With one step, the falling curtain blocked An Ranzai's gaze.

He only wants to understand the things he cares about.It's irrelevant, let's get in touch less.

Yi Leng changed shifts with the night watchman, and the other party happily handed over the night watch lantern and other things to him.

Night watch is not Yi Leng's first time doing it, so the route is quite familiar.What's more, going out to watch the night is better than confronting An Ran. Tonight, An Ran is now a bomb, ready to vent his anger on him at any time, so it's better for him to run away.

What's more, the night watchman can still be alone under the stars.

The ancient night sky has not been polluted by modern times. The night sky is especially blue and pure, a kind of dark blue that is almost bewitching, and the starlight tonight is especially bright, full of stars, so beautiful that people can't move their eyes away. A layer of silver yarn was added.

This kind of starry sky is best seen lying on the hillside, and Yi Leng walked to a place unknowingly, looked at the hillside not far away, and happened to see a figure.

Yi Leng frowned, touched it calmly, put one hand on the saber beside him, estimated the distance, and shouted: "Who?!"

Thin, blended with the moonlight, turned to look at him, the silver powder sprinkled on his face, adding a touch of tenderness and affection.

His eyes melted into the moonlight, as if drunk, the man fixed his eyes on Yi Leng, smiled, his eyes sparkled, as always, expressed his infinite joy for his arrival: "It's really you."

The author has something to say: Update...

In the next chapter Ruan Xu is about to get angry, Yi Leng, you can't coax him well.hum.
