The Four Concubines

The west is different from the north. There are too many high mountains and narrow roads in the middle, and the official road is very far away. After discussing with Changsun Wuchen, Yun Xiao and Changsun Wuchen made a decision immediately.

Even though they took a shortcut, when Yun Xiao and the others arrived, it was nearly a month after departure. The soldiers were extremely fast, and Pingcheng might be breached at any time. Yun Xiao was anxious, but at the same time helpless. .

"Your Majesty, we will arrive at Pingcheng in seventy miles." This is the last rest before arriving in Pingcheng. Changsun Wuchen is cautious. Seventy miles is neither far nor close. If something happens to Pingcheng, he will Without hesitation, he led Yun Xiao back.

Yun Xiao looked at the map in the carriage, and asked casually, "Have you sent scouts?"

"It was dispatched before, and according to the time, it should be almost in Pingcheng by now." Changsun Wuchen replied.

"Let the soldiers rest for a while before leaving. The situation in Pingcheng is unclear, and a tough battle might be fought." Yun Xiao still understood the truth that sharpening a knife is not a mistake in chopping firewood.

"Yes! Besides, your Majesty, I'm sorry to say that..."

"what!!!!!!!"

Changsun Wuchen's words were interrupted by a terrified scream, and the soldiers who were resting instantly drew their weapons and looked around vigilantly.

Number one appeared and pointed to a place, "It's from over there."

Yun Xiao jumped out of the car and ordered, "Go and have a look."

"Your Majesty, be careful." Changsun Wuchen was cautious and helpless.

Yun Xiao nodded and walked over there quickly, she didn't sound like she was pretending, it shouldn't be a trap.

For Yun Xiao's approach, No. [-] and Changsun Wuchen are already used to it. On the way, as long as there are "accidents" that don't delay the time on the way, Yun Xiao will go to see and drag her luck. Three waves of businessmen who were blocked and robbed also blew up a mountain top of a bandit.

Yun Xiao was worried about the situation in Pingcheng, and ordered No. [-] to prepare the rocket again. Yun Xiao didn't want to use the gun, but she couldn't help it now.

Passing through a small bush in the direction pointed by No. [-], the sight suddenly widened. There was actually a small road in the forest. Yun Xiao looked forward along the small road and said sharply, "Hurry up and save people."

No. [-] flew out, and the end of this shallow path turned out to be a cliff, and a small child was hanging on the dead tree hanging on the cliff, and a woman by the cliff was desperately stretching her hand down, it seemed that it should be The child's mother, she should have made the cry just now.

No. [-] landed lightly on the dead tree, picked up the child on the tree, kicked off the cliff to borrow strength, and rolled up easily.

The woman quickly ran over to pick up the child in No. [-]'s hands, mumbling as if she was praying, but No. [-] frowned.

"It's Guangxia language." No. [-] said to Yun Xiao who had arrived.

Yun Xiao took a look at the mother and child, and was sure they were not injured. She was also relieved. She understood the meaning of No. [-]. Guangxia sent troops openly, and the relationship between the two countries has deteriorated. If they saved the people of Guangxia, they probably would not Sincerely.

"War, the people are innocent." Yun Xiao said, "Women and children are in trouble, can we a group of elders see death without saving them?"

Yun Xiao said, and walked towards the mother and son, "Are you all right?" After Yun Xiao finished speaking, she was stunned, and shook her head. They are from Guangxia, and they probably don't understand Daqin dialect.

Holding the child in her arms, the woman carefully glanced at Yun Xiao, then at the large group of soldiers behind Yun Xiao, but did not answer.

Yun Xiao showed helplessness.

But the woman suddenly turned her eyes to Yun Xiao's body, stared at Yun Xiao's face, and said hesitantly after a moment, "Thank you for saving me."

Changsun Wuchen and No. [-] took two steps forward, cautiously guarding Yunxiao's back. This woman not only understands Daqin dialect, but also speaks it fluently without a strange accent. If she hadn't spoken at the beginning Having spoken Guangxia dialect, no one would doubt that he is from Daqin just because he is fluent in Daqin dialect.

Yun Xiao didn't think much about it, there were only two of them on his side, so they must be more cautious.

"Are you going to Pingcheng?" Pingcheng is ahead, and Yun Xiao's question is purely "to get close".

The woman paused for a moment, then nodded.

Yun Xiao showed a warm smile, "If you don't mind, come with us, the mountain road is rough, and there may not be someone who can help you in this situation next time."

The woman thought for a moment, then responded, "Okay!"

After Yun Xiao came back, news came from the scouts in Pingcheng, Pingcheng was safe for the time being, Yun Xiao let the two of them get into his carriage, Changsun Wuchen gave No. [-] a look, No. [-] nodded slightly, and followed go up.

Yun Xiao knew that they were worried about her safety, so she didn't stop her. When she got in the car, the child seemed to be frightened, and soon fell asleep on her mother's lap.

The carriage was very warm, and the woman was afraid that the child would get sick from the heat, so she took off the buckskin cap on his head, and Yun Xiao recognized it was a boy.

"How old is the little guy?" Yun Xiao asked softly.

"Seven years old." The woman looked at Yun Xiao and replied with a slight smile.

Seeing the woman's smile, Yun Xiao was stunned, was it her illusion?This woman seemed to be friendly to her a lot, and she seemed less wary.

For the rest of the journey, Yun Xiao's insinuations can be regarded as "tricks". For example, this woman's husband is from Daqin, so she can speak Daqin language. For example, they are going to visit the grave of her parents-in-law. , and then entered Daqin's territory.

The woman's identity was almost the same, but she couldn't find anything about Pingcheng. The woman shook her head honestly to Yun Xiao's inquiry, and said frankly that it was four months ago that she entered Daqin this time. At that time, Guangxia The army has not yet entered Shanping pass.

Yun Xiao nodded and stopped asking too much.

When they were three miles away from the gate of Pingcheng, Yun Xiao ordered the carriage to stop and put down the mother and son.

"I can only send you here." Yun Xiao smiled helplessly, and glanced behind her, "You can also see that we are Daqin's reinforcements, and it's not right for you to enter the city with us."

The woman nodded and thanked Yun Xiao again with her hands in prayer, "I will never forget the grace of saving my life. May Ashxin be with you."

After the boy took a nap, he became much more energetic. He didn't feel embarrassed when he saw the crowd of people. He walked up to Yun Xiao generously, and bowed to Yun Xiao in a dignified manner, "Thank you, little boy!" elder brother."

Yun Xiao smiled and raised her hand to touch the child's head. This child is quite interesting, "You're welcome, if you have a chance, come and play with me in the capital of Daqin."

After Yun Xiao finished speaking, she nodded goodbye to the woman, turned back to the carriage, and the army continued to move towards Pingcheng.

The eldest grandson Wuchen rode close to No. [-] while pulling the rein, distracted, "What are you thinking?"

No. [-] regained consciousness, looked back at the mother and son who were waiting to see them off, and took a deep look at the boy, "It's nothing, I just think that boy looks familiar."

No. [-] said very vaguely, he actually wanted to say that the boy looks a lot like Yun Xiao, especially those eyes, which are also as clear as water.But thinking about the clean eyes of the child, No. [-] also felt that he might be thinking too much.

The gate of Pingcheng was close at hand, but there was not even a single soldier guarding the city on the city wall. The scouts returned to the team and whispered a few words to Changsun Wuchen.

Changsun Wuchen looked ugly and hurried towards the carriage. When the carriage stopped, Yun Xiao poked his head out of the carriage.

"Your Majesty, the scouts have come to report that the Guangxia Army has aggressively attacked Pingcheng. Now all the defenders in the city have gone to the west gate. The strength of the two sides is very different, and there is no sign of the Pingxi Army!"

"Go into the city." Yun Xiao gave the order decisively.

Yun Xiao greeted Number One, she didn't bring many hidden guards this time, only more than 20 people, and left the rest for eldest grandson Wugou and Xiao Chuo.

"Divide the Rockets." Yun Xiao said to No. [-].

No. [-] took the lead and went down to make arrangements.

Changsun Wuchen had already ordered someone to climb over the wall to open the door. The door opened from the inside. A citizen in the city who hadn't had time to go home was stunned when he saw Yun Xiao and the others, with a frightened expression on his face. The banner with the word "Qin" on it, was overjoyed again, struggled to run in front of Yun Xiao and the others, knelt down and shouted.

"General! General! Save Miss Chen! Please save Miss Chen!"

Yun Xiao jumped out of the car and grabbed the man's arm, and quickly asked, "Miss Chen is the prefect's daughter Chen Gui, isn't she? Where is she? Is she in Ximen?"

The man hurriedly nodded, "General, I beg you to save Ms. Chen. The soldiers guarding the gate will not go to fight, but the Guangxia people have come in. There is no way for the miss to take the soldiers guarding the city to the west gate."

"Lead the way!" Yun Xiao snapped.

Changsun Wuchen carried the man to his horse, turned his head and ordered, "All soldiers, prepare, follow me to support!"

"Yes!"

Pingxi Army Garrison Outside Pingcheng

"Vice General Liu, Guangxia is coming to invade, and Pingcheng is in danger! Are we really not going to send troops?"

"Hmph, what's the hurry? Tang Wuchang can't wait to make a military exploit? Don't forget, our current task is to ensure the combat power of the Pingxi Army. When the appointment from the court is handed down, a new Great General, it will not be too late to fight back in one fell swoop!"

……

500 meters outside the west gate of Pingcheng

"Miss Chen, you should go back, we will defend Pingcheng even if we try our best."

Chen Gui looked at the decisive expression of Fu Cheng, the general who defended Pingcheng, and shook his head with a wry smile. They all knew in their hearts that with the thousands of soldiers defending the city, Pingcheng would definitely not be able to defend it. It is simply a fantasy to want Guangxia to retreat.

Chen Wei looked calmly at the Guangxia army that was approaching in front of her. She had tried all means for more than a month, but she couldn't think of a way to retreat from the enemy. Colorless people will never send troops.

Chen Wei sighed in his heart, made up his mind, and said to Fu Cheng in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "I'm trying to delay for a while, you send someone to the Pingxi Army's station to find General Liu Yang, Let him send troops to rescue Pingcheng, and tell him that I... agree to his terms."

Fu Cheng looked at Chen Wei in shock, the condition?What conditions?But thinking about Liu Yang's personality, how could he not know what the conditions were?

"Miss, is there no other way? Why don't you find Mr. Liang and see him..."

Chen Gui shook his head, "It's useless, he can't help much." And even if he could, is it possible for him to help at this time?

Thinking of this, Chen Gui felt a little sad again. Everyone in Pingcheng said that Liang Zigu, the heir of the Liang family, was both talented and beautiful, and he was a match made in heaven, but in the face of national calamity, he and other aristocratic families stayed behind closed doors...

What should come is still here, Chen Wei quickly regained his senses and stared at the front.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Guangxia's battle horn sounded, and the undulating sound of the horn flute was like the roar of mountains.

And the response to them was an unfamiliar and sharp word, "Shoot the arrow!"

Hundreds of arrows were shot from the back to the Guangxia army in front, but facing an army of tens of thousands, those hundreds of arrows were just a few small stones thrown towards the mountains.

And the next moment, under the astonished eyes of Chen Wei and the guarding soldiers, the "little stone" smashed a hole through the "mountains" with a scorching fire and a shocking sound!
