My nemesis ascended the throne

Chapter 57 The Great Army

It was early morning when the army set out.

Xie An wore the clothes of a small soldier and mingled under the emperor's tent, among the emperor's cavalry.

The emperor's personal guards consisted of more than a thousand people, and if he was the only one who smuggled in, he couldn't even hit a splash.

This is what the emperor meant.

Xie An didn't know what happened.The night before the army set off, Liang Yingguan ordered Liu Changqing, the chancellor of the Dali Temple, to lift him out of the Dali Temple.

The journey to the north is long, and the army stops and starts. The further north, the more desolate, covered with thousands of miles of yellow sand, it is hard to imagine that there are still people living in such a difficult place.

Across the turbulent river, the border of the Great Wei was divided into two.The west of the city is close to the sphere of influence of the Turkic people. The people here rely on trade with outside the customs all the year round. Once a war breaks out, millions of people will be displaced.

On an ordinary day in winter, Han Xiao, who was guarding Yicheng, ushered in an army of 20 in Chang'an City.

The soldiers and horses did not move, the food and grass went first, the battle between the military strategists always favored the food and grass, Xie Jin was the one who escorted the food and grass, and he arrived five days earlier than the army.

Across a river, soldiers and horses confront each other.As soon as the emperor arrived, the soldiers of the whole army cheered as if they had a backbone.

Xie An was riding on a horse, and his body was a little heavy from traveling in the sun. For a while, the horse sank deep into the sand. He held the rein and pulled, and the horse stepped on his limbs, but he couldn't take half a step.A shadow beat the horse over, took the reins of the horse, pulled the whip over, the horse was frightened, and struggled out of the mud, the man pulled Xie An from the horse, and he landed firmly on the ground. His right away.

It was Xie Jin.

Xie An raised his head slightly, Xie Jin saw him suddenly, his eyes were full of surprise: "It's Your Majesty..."

Xie An's eyelashes drooped, and he wanted to say a few words to Xie Jin. Swords have no eyes on the battlefield, so he was told to be more careful, but he didn't say anything.

Xie Jin's eyes dimmed.

Xie An's appearance here was beyond his expectation.But since it appeared here, it must not be pursued.Why doesn't His Majesty pursue it?Or, His Majesty knew the truth, but chose to cover it up?

Why cover up?

Xie Jin always felt that something was wrong here.Behind the little prince's case, I'm afraid there is a lot of fog.

Xie Jin has military merits on him?Although the emperor wanted to train him, he was still young, and he was not as good as generals like Liang Yingguan and Han Xiaopeiyu, so he was only given the title of deputy commander.

He rode on the horse, looked at Xie An standing on the sand dune, and thought of the emperor's inhumane thoughts, so he clenched his fists tightly. When Xie An was about to leave, he suddenly stopped Xie An "If His Majesty does something..."

Xie An stopped, he stood on the sand dune, and said word by word to his younger brother, "That has nothing to do with you."

Xie Jin didn't say the half sentence "I will protect you".

The wind and sand in Yicheng is far from comparable to that in Beijing.Han Xiao welcomed the young emperor into the tent, and saw that although their Majesty was busy with the world, his brows were not tired.

"I kept going all the way, because I was worried about the situation in Yicheng."

Han Xiao sighed: "Your Majesty, the folk customs of this place are extremely tough, and because it has been a military fortress all year round, wars are commonplace. The people are hungry, and such things often happen in exchange for food. The Turkic people won the city, and the men None of them can survive, and the women are afraid that they will be cooked as cattle and horses. Fortunately, His Majesty stabbed this Turkic lair a few years ago. Collude with grassland tribes and jointly invade our border."

Rong Quan frowned and said: "It's my fault. I was busy with the affairs of the capital a few years ago, so I didn't know that such things happened under the rule."

Han Xiaodao: "It's just that the current situation is not a solution. Does Your Majesty have a good plan?"

Rong Quan said seriously: "If Xie Jin writes a letter to Turkic Khan, saying that he is willing to cooperate with Turkic and open the city gate to wait for him to send troops, is it feasible?"

Han Xiao opened his eyes wide-"What does His Majesty mean?"

"The Turkic Khan should believe it, and he won't feel that Xie Jin is using this trick to lure him. Because once this letter is leaked, Xie Jin will definitely die. When the main force of his army enters the city, he will be caught."

"It's just how can Xie Jin gain the trust of the Turkic people?"

When Xie Jin came, he saw that His Majesty and Han Xiao were already discussing something, and the more he listened, his expression became more serious: "Aren't Your Majesty afraid that I will really cooperate with Turks and sell this city?"

By that time, not only the city, but also the capital will be in danger.

Rong Quan looked at him coldly, and suddenly smiled.

"Xie Jin, why do you think I choose you?"

Xie Jin raised his eyes in astonishment, but saw the young and handsome emperor in front of him straighten up and help him up.

"You Xie's family was destroyed in my hands. If you tell the truth, Turkic Khan will find out the reason, and he will believe it."

Xie Jin raised his head: "If Your Majesty dares to use it, just wait for the news."

"Since you were studying the book, you have been the traitor of Wei, maybe you can bear it?"

Xie Jin smiled, "Your Majesty, I am a soldier at the border, not a pile of embroidered pillows in Chang'an City. A man should make great achievements. If he is caught in the tongue of others, he will ignore my father's years of teaching."

The next day, Xie Jin repaired a letter and sent an envoy to the Turkic King City.

Xie An knew nothing about what happened in the imperial army tent.

Five days later, 15 Turkic troops entered the border town. Xie Jin opened the city gates to welcome them into the city. The army drove straight in. It only took four or five days to capture three border cities.

The battle report was sent back to the capital, and the news of Xie Jin's defection from the front spread, shocking the whole country.

The person who led the Turkic troops into the city was the Turkic Khan Mohe. He was cautious when he entered the city at the beginning, but he was relieved when he did not encounter any obstacles in the end.He thought of the Chen Ci in Xie Jin's book, and thought that the investigation of the Xie family and the emperor of the Central Plains was almost in line with what Xie Jin said. He secretly thought that the emperor of the Central Plains had done a lot of evil things to the Xie family.Mo He is not stupid either, he has two people like Rong Yan and Wei Lang by his side, so he naturally knows the situation of the Xie family.

He still remembered Wei Lang's clenched fists when he saw Xie Jin write "Humiliate my elder brother" in the letter.

Wei Lang was shot into the river by Xie Jin's arrow at the beginning, but the matter of a man, in the face of absolute interests on the battlefield, the old enmity, if he really stood in the same camp, it would not be a big deal.

At this time, after the city was broken, Xie An followed Wei Jun to retreat to Lincheng. The news of Xie Jin's rebellion was spreading all over the city, and it reached his ears. It was like bad news. How could Xie Jin rebel?

Could it be that because of the matter of the Xie family, you have suspicions against His Majesty?

After thinking about it, he thought it was wrong, but he also felt that the city was full of wind and rain, so he went to the emperor's king's tent, and was blocked by two black cavalrymen.

"Even I can't see His Majesty?"

"Your Majesty has ordered, but no one will be seen."

Xie An gritted his teeth, and turned to look for Xie Jin. Since this guy rebelled, he must be in Yicheng.

One person and one horse, they headed towards Yicheng.

The wind and sand blinded his eyes, Xie An walked for a full day and night before arriving at Yicheng, all relying on his solitary courage and stubbornness.

Before entering the city, soldiers and horses as black as dark clouds stepped through the yellow sand and gathered towards their position.In front of him, the general on horseback circled Xie An.Armored horses kicked the yellow sand, under the glare of the sun, only foreign soldiers masked in black scarves and pairs of bloodthirsty and fierce eyes could be seen.

The general jumped off his horse, groped him all over, suddenly smiled frivolously, and tore off the headband that tied his hair, so that his black hair fell loose on his pale cheeks, "Spy from the Central Plains, one day." You can catch a few more."

The insult in his words was self-evident, and the soldiers around him burst out laughing.

He clamped Xie An's arm, and threw the man onto the horse's back like a bag, while others led his horse out of sight.

In the military account of Yicheng.

Xie Jin and the generals looked at the map on the sand table.

"Report—" A soldier ran to the door and knelt down, "Khan, a spy has been caught."

Mo He raised his head, "Bring it in." After speaking, he glanced at Xie Jin.

Xie Jin just glanced at Xie An lightly, and didn't take another look.

At this time, Xie An's hair was disheveled and his face was unkempt. Even familiar people might not be able to recognize him, but Xie An knew that Xie Jin recognized him.

Xie Jin dropped the small flag stuck on the map, and said casually, "This kind of thing, you still use it to disturb Khan by pulling it into the tent?"

Mo He casually glanced at the disheveled spy.

The spy shrunk into a booth, with his head down, unable to see his face clearly.

"Then according to your meaning?"

"Procrastinate and beat, if you can't beat it, kill it."

Xie Jin left the sand table with his hands, his face was indifferent.

Xie An was awakened by a basin of water splashing on his face. When he opened his eyes, his clothes were already wet, water dripped from his hem, and there were traces of water stains on the ground.

A group of foreign generals in armor in Yicheng stood behind a young man and laughed. "This spies will live well after being washed."

Xie An felt dizzy, looked up, and met Xie Jin's cold eyes, pursed his lips, and did not speak.

Xie Jin's eyes were still a little heavy, but he still squinted at the generals watching the excitement around him, "I want to clean up people, you want to watch here?"

There was no one around, Xie Jin finally stretched out his hand to tear off Xie An who was still tied up, lowered his eyes and said, "What are you doing here?"

"I came here to find you, and was kidnapped by those people." Xie An smiled wryly.

Xie Jin wanted to beat Xie An to death.

"You fell into the hands of these people, and you thought you could live?"

Xie An didn't answer, and traveled thousands of miles just to ask, "Why treason?"

"What does it have to do with you?"

Xie An clenched his left hand down into a fist.

The lintel of the Xie family will never tolerate traitors.

Although he is a dude and ignorant, although he is resentful and tolerant, he is a child of the Xie family after all.

He raised his eyes and looked at him, word by word: "Why did you treason?" Everything that happened in the past few days was like a terrifying conspiracy. She was born in a trap, and she couldn't see the way ahead through the fog.

"In the end what happened?"

"As you can see, take revenge for my Xie family."

After Xie Jin finished speaking, he saw a shadow in front of the window and disappeared.

With a "slap", Xie An slapped him.Xie Jin pushed him and threw him on the bed, his eyes were like a wounded beast: "What right do you have to hit me? What are you?"

Xie An was placed under house arrest by Xie Jin.

After nightfall, Zishi.

The city suddenly burst into flames.Rong Ren's army scattered into the houses and hid together with the people. After a while, rockets shot into the city like rain, and the fire burst into the sky.

Mo He looked at the flames soaring into the sky, realized that he had been duped, who he was, immediately reacted, and shouted angrily: "Catch that brat Xie Jin!"

Countless Turkic soldiers rushed over, but the Wei army had already evacuated, only Xie Jin and Xie An, the city gate was locked, thick smoke billowed, Han Xiao had already ordered someone to lock the city gate, and once someone broke through, he immediately fired arrows shoot back.

Xie An's hair was too long, most of it was burnt by the fire, but Xie Jin was still neat in comparison, seeing that he couldn't run anymore, he frowned but carried him on his back without saying a word.

The 10,000+ army was running wildly around the city. If they accidentally met him, the two of his brothers might die without a whole body.

Xie Jin felt quite helpless, but he didn't expect that in the end, he and Xie An would die together.He carried Xie An on his back and fled all the way to the riverside, there was no way out.Now that the matter has come to this point, Xie An is a fool and knows what happened.

Xie An reached out to touch Xie Jin, but found that he had no strength left.

Xie Jin threw him on the ground, only then did he see two feathered arrows sticking bloody on Xie An's back.He unexpectedly helped him block the two arrow clusters abruptly, and endured it until now.

"Xie Jin...one by one"

Xie An wanted to say something else, but the corner of his lips began to vomit blood, red like a sea of ​​fire behind him.

"You forgive the Xie family, okay?"

Xie An knew that the Xie family had treated this concubine younger brother poorly.

He felt he was going to die.When people say that people are about to die, their words are good, Xie An mockingly smiled.He has been stubborn for so many years. After all, when he was dying, he wanted to tell Xie Jin a few words of truth.

Her lips moved, and she handed the safety talisman in Xie Jin's arms with trembling hands, her voice was still faint: "I'll give it to you this time, don't throw it away again."

Xie An was too afraid of pain.

The feathered arrow stuck in his back, piercing his heart, how could he, who is well-clothed and well-fed, endure it.

Xie Jin stared blankly at Xie An, subconsciously caught it with both hands, and Xie An gave away the peace talisman that he hadn't given out for many years.

Xie Jin stared at Xie An as if in a daze.

Xie An has always had a hard-spoken and soft-hearted temper. At this point, the thorn in his body has finally been pulled out, but his life may not be long.

His heart was beating like a drum, the sound of killing filled the sky in his ears, and there was a sea of ​​corpses and blood in front of his eyes.Gradually, the eyes were stained with a bit of madness.

"Xie An!"

Bright red blood overflowed from between his lips as if without stopping.

Xie Jin stupidly wanted to wipe off the thick blood with the hem of his robe, but he wiped more and more.

Xie An's eyes gradually became confused.He can't talk much anymore.

People say that when a person is about to die, he will always see the important people and things in his life. He saw his father, the queen, Rong Yan, Xie Jin, his sister who was married and widowed, and Ning He.

Finally, he saw Rong Jing.

The young emperor was furious, pinched his neck, and gritted his teeth, "Xie An, how dare you die?"

He even laughed in a trance.

"Thank you, I'll leave it to you..."

His voice gradually dropped.

Xie Jin's eyes were red, he grabbed Xie An's collar, "If you dare to die, the Xie family will be destroyed by your hands."

Since his father passed away, he hadn't shed tears for a long time, and it was only at this moment that he remembered that this person was so connected with him by blood.He hugged the thin Xie An tightly in his arms, his steps were disorganized: "I'll take you to see the doctor one by one"

Xie An pushed him away, and with the last of his strength, he stretched out his hand and pushed Xie Jin into the turbulent river behind him.

Then, Xie Jin's last memory before he fell into a coma was that Xie An fell by the sea of ​​flames, and when he appeared at some unknown time, Mo He, who was in a mess, raised the knife in his hand.
