Dianxia Qingcheng

Usually, the recruits who went to the battlefield for the first time were frightened, cried and fainted. Yuenu was shaking like a sieve while holding the bow, but her mood was still calm.

Trembling, he poked his head out from the edge of the city wall, and looked at the dark barbarian army on the opposite side from a distance.

The arrows of "咻咻咻" suddenly flew in, and someone on the city wall began to shout, "The barbarians are attacking! Defend all fronts!"

All the soldiers around climbed out and lay down on the hole in the high wall, their bows and arrows were put out, and feathered arrows were shot towards the opposite side.

Yue Nu followed suit, and shot the arrows quickly and anxiously. The first two arrows were too nervous to shoot, but each of the eight arrows behind them shot down an enemy soldier.

The ten arrows were quickly used up, Yue Nu bent down, and wanted to ask the soldier next to him to borrow one, but the soldier hugged his ten arrows without even daring to show his head, and just shrank behind the city wall, his eyes glazed over.

Before Yuenu could say a word, the soldier in front of him was shot through the skull by an arrow flying across the sky, and hot blood mixed with brains splashed on Yuenu's face.

Yue Nu's lips trembled, and she froze in place all of a sudden, the bow she held in her hand became tighter and tighter.

He closed the soldier's eyes, then gritted his teeth, took the arrow in his hand, turned around and ran to the other side, and continued to shoot hard towards the outside of the city wall.

After shooting the arrows, he continued to run to draw arrows from other corpses. Seeing too much blood, people became numb.

During that whole day, Yue Nu didn't know how many arrows he shot, and when the sky darkened, the opponent finally stopped attacking.

The people on the city wall were also able to breathe temporarily, and the remaining soldiers walked down the city wall supporting each other.

After getting down the city wall, one person was handed out a steamed bun and a bowl of porridge, and they started to eat like that.

Yue Nu was also standing in the shadow beside him eating, his stomach was so hungry that he raised his bow all day, his arms were still sore and trembling, and he couldn't carry the porridge all night.

Before the meal was finished, a lieutenant came over and told several people to leave, including Yue Nu.

These few people were outstanding during the day and were selected to form a raid team. The task tonight was to sneak out of the tunnels in the city wall, sneak to the back of the barbarian barracks, and burn down their grain and grass depots.

The stream rockets have been prepared for them, they just need to ignite and shoot them when the time comes.

The raid mission was urgent and dangerous, and the soldiers all looked awe-inspiring and righteous, knowing that this was going to be a disaster, and the prosperity and survival of the country was on their shoulders, so no one flinched before the battle.

"Yes! Guaranteed to complete!"

Only Yue Nu still lowered his head, thinking that it was a lie to say that he was not afraid, what if he really couldn't come back, what if he never saw the general again.

?

The deputy general pointed at Yue Nu, "You, raise your head, don't you want to go!"

The eyes of the people around looked over, and Yue Nu tightened her cuffs nervously.

"Do you want to disobey the military order? Hold your head up!"

Seeing that the lieutenant general was angry, he wanted to come over and teach Yue Nu himself.

Yue Nu gritted her teeth and slowly raised her head.

Several other people were extremely surprised, it turned out to be that little handyman, how did he come to the front line?

The deputy general didn't expect it to be him, stared at him for a long while, and finally choked out a word.

"Send him back to the barracks!"

Someone wanted to come over and take Yue Nu away.

Yue Nu was a little emotional, "Deputy General, I, I can't go back. I can participate in the raid tonight, just don't let me go back, okay"

As long as the war is not over, the general will not be able to recuperate in peace, so he cannot go back.

"Nonsense! The battlefield is not a child's play. You have not been trained and cannot participate in such a dangerous operation. You must go back!"

Yue Nu shook the bow behind his back, his arm was already being grabbed, he said loudly, "But deputy general, my archery skills are better than all of them! I can guarantee that I can shoot the enemy's grain depot with one arrow! "

As soon as these words came out, the soldier holding Yue Nu's arm suddenly let go.

This is the truth.

In the end, Yue Nu followed the raid team out of the city through the secret road and marched towards the rear camp of the barbarian army.

In the dead of night, a fire burst into the sky from behind the barbarian camp, and everyone on the city wall of the Celestial Dynasty cheered together.

The raid appeared to be a success, as the fire took a full hour to be extinguished.

However, none of the raid team came back.

At this moment in the military camp, Zhao Litang finally woke up, and Shen Huan almost cried with joy.

Wu Quan rushed into the barracks happily and reported the burning of the enemy's food and grass.

Hearing this, Zhao Litang sat up from the bed with a very serious expression, "Who made the decision on this matter, and how are the casualties?"

Wu Quan's smile froze on his face, he hesitated and didn't know how to speak.

"General, this matter was decided by the few of us. Ten people were killed or injured, and none of them responded."

Zhao Litang said nothing, the wound on his shoulder was still aching, after a while he said to Wu Quan, "Okay, you go out first.

Wu Quan didn't leave, and lowered his head, "General, there is one more person from the raid team."

Qi Changyi would come to the palace every day and stay in the emperor's bedroom for half a day.

The emperor's condition did not improve, but fortunately, with the company of the little man, the emperor is in a good mood every day.

"Father, do you know what happened next?"

Qi Changyi blinked a pair of big eyes and looked at the emperor with watery eyes.

The emperor frowned in embarrassment, "Father can't figure it out, Yi'er should tell father."

Qi Changyi rolled his eyes, "Then they beat the bad guys away and lived happily together, isn't it great?"

The emperor also smiled lovingly, stroked Qi Changyi's hair, nodded, "Okay, very good."

After speaking, he coughed again, and the old eunuch at the side quickly handed over the medicine.

"Father, is it hard to feel that Yi'er doesn't bother Father anymore, let Father have a good rest, and Yi'er will come to see Father tomorrow."

The emperor lay back on the bed with a pale face, and Qi Changyi walked out of the bedroom with his head down.

After the person left, the old eunuch said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, are you really planning to do that? But when I looked at His Royal Highness, it was really true"

"Yi'er is fine, besides, there is Pei Aiqing here"

The old eunuch nodded without saying a word.

As soon as Qi Changyi stepped out of the bedroom door, someone walked towards him and took his hand naturally.

"What's wrong?" Pei Zheng pinched his drooping little face, his fingertips were greasy.

Qi Changyi didn't speak, but just raised his eyes to look at him, the end of his eyes drooping pitifully.

Pei Zheng stopped in his tracks and pulled him behind a red pillar, "Are you worried?"

Qi Changyi pursed his lips and nodded, "Brother Pei, Father's health is getting worse and worse, I, I can't help him"

Pei Zheng touched the corner of his lips, "You have helped a lot, and what you make him happy every day is the greatest help, you know?"

"But"

"Okay, stop blaming yourself."

Pei Zheng hugged him into his arms and rubbed him, his hands slid down his slender waist.

He has never made any further moves, at most he just hugged and kissed him. Pei Zheng didn't want to force him, especially at this time, if he did any animal things, he always felt like taking advantage of the fire.

Suddenly footsteps came from behind, Qi Changyi stood up straight with reddish ears, turned around to look back, but Pei Zheng pinched his chin and turned back.

Pei Zheng didn't have the embarrassment of being knocked out, he was smiling, and his eyes were dark and deep.

"Yes, Your Highness the Prince."

The person who came was none other than Qi Hanlian, the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Dynasty who had just returned to the imperial capital.

Although he is a prince, he was not as important as the fourth prince before. He was sent by the emperor to the south of the Yangtze River. Now the emperor came back to the imperial capital after he was seriously ill. people.

Qi Han Liankong has the title of a prince, which is not worthy of the name but has a lot of magnificence, but Pei Zheng never takes him seriously, and he can't even be polite when they meet.

Qi Hanlian also smiled at Pei Zheng, "Yo, Mr. Pei is here too, have you visited Emperor Father just now? How about it, did Emperor Father mention to Mr. Pei that the Crown Prince is back?"

Pei Zheng rubbed his fingers lightly twice, but he didn't intend to let go of Qi Changyi's chin. When he spoke, his voice rang in Qi Changyi's ear, deep and mellow.

"Of course, the emperor has always missed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Pei Zheng didn't change his expression when he told the lie, but Qi Changyi looked up at Pei Zheng strangely, his father obviously never said that.

Qi Han believed it to be true, and couldn't hide the smug look in his brows, his tone couldn't help but lighten up.

"I don't know, what is Master Pei doing here?" He sized up the person in Pei Zheng's arms, and he heard the gossip from the palace as soon as he returned to the palace, but now he pretended not to recognize Qi Changyi.

"Who is this?"

Pei Zheng lowered his head and glanced at the nervous man, he didn't answer, but just smiled, "His Royal Highness, go in soon, the emperor is probably going to rest."

Seeing that the door of the bedroom was about to be closed, Qi Hanlian hurried over, and when passing by the two of them, he still kept looking deliberately at Qi Changyi.

Pei Zheng turned sideways calmly, completely blocking the little man.

After Qi Hanlian walked away, Qi Changyi secretly peeked out his small head from Pei Zheng's arms and glanced at him.

Qi Changyi didn't have any contact with his prince brother, but the feeling today is that he doesn't like this person very much.

"Fortunately, I was almost seen."

Qi Changyi patted his small chest, looking relieved, he thought he had hidden the matter with Pei Zheng well, and no one has noticed that Pei Zheng grabbed his hand and put it on his chest, "Why? Afraid of being seen, do you think I'm ashamed?"

When he said this, he used a low and gentle tone, and then narrowed the end of his eyes slightly.

Qi Changyi thought that Pei Zheng had misunderstood what he said, and hurriedly explained, "No Brother Pei, I didn't mean that, it was

Pei Zheng let go of his hand and lowered his eyes, "Okay, I understand."
