Xie Yan didn't pretend to be coy, and walked over honestly and sat down in front of Xiao Chengzhou. Xiao Chengzhou hugged him back and hugged him. Then Xiao Chengzhou tightened his cloak and wrapped Xie Yan inside, only his calves and head were exposed.

Suddenly it became much warmer, Xie Yan tilted his head and rubbed against Xiao Chengzhou's chest.

Xiao Chengzhou hugged Xie Yan, pressed his face against Xie Yan through the hat, and asked: "Are you afraid before?"

Xie Yan said softly: "I was scared when I came out, but afterward, I didn't feel anything."

Xie Yan knew that what Xiao Chengzhou was asking was about the fight with the enemy just now. After being in the barracks for so long, he was used to seeing life and death. Many soldiers who had small wounds bandaged by him were never seen again.Xie Yan knew that most of them died in battle and slept forever in the snow at the border.

It was Xie Yan's first time to kill someone just now, he thought it would be very difficult for him to kill, even if he killed someone to protect his family and country, it would be difficult to take that step.But on the battlefield, facing the bloody scene, swinging the knife in his hand didn't seem to be as difficult as Xie Yan imagined.

Xie Yan turned to look at Xiao Chengzhou, smiled and said, "Brother Zhou, are you worried about me?"

Xiao Chengzhou nodded, "Many fledgling soldiers, after coming off the battlefield for the first time, can no longer hold a knife."

Xie Yan looked at him, "Then you underestimated me. After all, my grandfather and father both led soldiers to the battlefield. Although I have been well-clothed since I was a child, I still have their blood in my bones."

Xiao Chengzhou's chest trembled slightly, he chuckled twice, and slowly shook his arms around Xie Yan, "Yes, if Xie Hou hadn't stepped down back then, you should be a little general now."

Xie Yan took it for granted, "That's right, the tiger father has no dogs."

After laughing, there was a brief silence on the cliff, Xie Yan suddenly remembered something, took out the silk from his arms, and asked Xiao Chengzhou: "Brother Zhou, did I give you this when I was young?"

Xiao Chengzhou froze for a moment, "You remember?"

Xie Yan shook his head, and said: "As expected, we knew each other when we were young, and we seem to have a good relationship, but I don't remember it at all."

Xiao Chengzhou put away the silk, and said in relief: "It doesn't matter if you don't remember, after all, you are already with me."

Xie Yan turned sideways, put his arms around Xiao Chengzhou's waist, and rested his head in the hollow of his shoulder, "But this always feels unfair to you." For many years, only Xiao Chengzhou remembered him, but he didn't remember Xiao Chengzhou at all. It's no wonder that Xiao Chengzhou was able to get close to him on purpose.

Xiao Chengzhou kissed Xie Yan's side face, "It seems so from what you said, then you have to make it up to me in the future."

"Brother Zhou, when you have time, tell me about our childhood."

"Okay." Xiao Chengzhou replied, "Wait for the matter here, find a leisurely afternoon or night, and I will tell you."

Xie Yan himself was very tired, with Xiao Chengzhou's warm chest on his back, and Xiao Chengzhou's deep voice beside his ears. Xie Yan's eyelids became heavy after Xiao Chengzhou's short sentence. I couldn't help closing my eyes and fell asleep.

Xiao Chengzhou couldn't bear to disturb him, pulled his cloak to cover the place where the wind leaked, and looked down the cliff.As the leading general, he was naturally not needed for the night watch, and Xie Yan was called here simply to explain Xie Yan, who had been on the battlefield for the first time.

But Xie Yan's temperament is firmer than he imagined.Xiao Chengzhou still remembered Xie Yan who was training with Chu Chu, it was very difficult at first, but he probably already knew what he wanted to do at that time, he gritted his teeth and persisted without any complaints.Some things are invisible at first glance, and can only be realized after a long time. It is born and engraved in the bone.

Hearing the sound of Xie Yan's long and soothing breathing, Xiao Chengzhou's eyes scanned the surroundings, and he spent the night with his arms around Xie Yan like this.

When the sky was slightly bright, Xie Yan woke up by himself. Although he was outside, Xie Yan slept well that night.

"Are you awake?" The heat breathed in his ears, and Xiao Chengzhou's gentle voice came from above his head.

Xie Yan's mind wavered, then he raised his head, facing Xiao Chengzhou's doting eyes looking down at him.Xie Yan couldn't stand Xiao Chengzhou looking at him like this the most, so he quickly looked away and said, "Wake up, it's time to go to training later."

Xie Yan also gradually got used to the work and rest in the barracks, and got up at that time.

Xiao Chengzhou put his arms around him and did not let go, and said: "You can take a day off today, the shift replacement will come later, why don't you squint for a while?"

Xie Yan shook his head, he touched Xiao Chengzhou's black eyes, "Go to sleep, I'll watch."

Xiao Chengzhou rubbed his chin on Xie Yan's forehead, and sighed slightly: "I can't bear to sleep." In the barracks, he spent too little time with Xie Yan, and he tried every means to squeeze out every moment, his eyes could not wait to stick On Xie Yan.

There was a noise in the camp, Kong Qing and Chang Shan were guarding outside, they were not afraid of anything, they didn't want to sleep, so they hugged like this.

The weather was fine today, and the two of them embraced each other quietly facing the cliff for a while, and then saw a faint yellow color appearing in the distant sky.

Xie Yan raised his finger and pointed there, "The sun is out."

The sun slowly crossed the horizon, completely dispelling the darkness.

The first ray of light sprinkled on the snow, the light jumped on Xie Yan's face, and Xiao Chengzhou's gentle gaze traced his profile.Xie Yan seemed to feel something, and smiled at him sideways.

Xiao Chengzhou couldn't restrain himself, he tightened his hood, pulled up the cloak to cover each other, then lowered his head to find Xie Yan's lips.Xie Yan was still a little shy, but he grabbed Xiao Chengzhou's shoulder and greeted him, his cheeks flushed.

Xiao Chengzhou chuckled, bit Xie Yan's soft lips, broke into his teeth, and wrapped around Xie Yan's trembling little tongue.

Facing the rising sun, the two kissed slowly in the ice and snow.

Xie Yan, who had been to the battlefield once, began to feel comfortable with life in the military camp.He was originally a frank and straightforward person, even though some people disdain him because of his identity before, but after a life and death together, more and more people agree with him, and he is finally not like he just entered the military camp, It always looks lonely.

Xie Yan's brows were stained with the old smile again.

However, life in the military camp is always dark. After Xiao Chengzhou and the others intercepted the small enemy army, the enemy quickly assembled its troops and prepared to attack the small county where they are now stationed. The number of people was ten times larger than that of Xiao Chengzhou and the others. Wanlai.

As the soldiers approached the city, Zhou Yao divided the soldiers into two groups, instructing one to bypass the enemy and sneak attack the rear; the other, led by Xiao Chengzhou, to face the enemy head-on.

The other generals did not agree with Zhou Yao's seemingly rigid plan for the battle. The number of people was so large that the chance of winning a direct confrontation with the enemy was too small, which was really unwise.But Zhou Yao insisted that as the coach, if he gave an order, all the generals would have to obey.

Xie Yan was also a member of the battle. He smelled something unusual in Zhou Yao's layout, so he went to ask Xiao Chengzhou.

Xiao Chengzhou told him, "Father sent him here, in fact, he only wanted to contain me."

Emperor Zhaoyuan did not establish a prince for a long time, and was always on guard against the four sons, trying every means to make them check and balance each other.This time King Hui and King Yu made a mistake. After the two kings were weak, it was not a big problem for Emperor Zhaoyuan to have King Duan and Xiao Chengzhou check and balance each other, but the enemy country attacked and caught Emperor Zhaoyuan by surprise.

No matter which emperor, he will not let his military power go out easily.But to fight against the inside, one must first secure the outside, and in the matter of fighting for power and profit, one must also give in in the face of the crisis of the family and the country.Although Xiao Chengzhou didn't hold much weight in Emperor Zhao Yuan's heart, he valued his ability very much. He was indeed used to Xiao Chengzhou's knife and trusted his sharpness.

Daqi has not fought for many years, and three cities have been captured in succession. Emperor Zhaoyuan needs to stabilize the morale of the army. The role of ordinary generals is very small. At this time, it is best to send the prince.As for the relationship between King Duan and Xiao Chengzhou, King Duan was naturally powerful, and Emperor Zhaoyuan did not dare to let King Duan go out to lead troops, so he had no choice but to send Xiao Chengzhou there.Then, in order to contain Xiao Chengzhou, Zhou Yao was appointed as the coach to overwhelm Xiao Chengzhou.

And Zhou Yao is a member of King Duan, he did this in the hope that Xiao Chengzhou would die tragically under the enemy's sword when his troops were insufficient.It not only inspired our soldiers, but also eradicated an opponent for King Duan.

Emperor Zhao Yuan would not feel heartbroken if he died a prince who did not have a sacred heart.

"This is nonsense!" Xie Yan said incredulously, he thought it was too ridiculous, "There is a huge gap between us and the enemy. If we are destroyed and we are unable to stop the battle, the enemy army will go straight to the capital! If it is only for their selfish desires, what are you doing, soldier How innocent, how innocent are the people in the rear!"

Xiao Chengzhou pinched Xie Yan's shoulder and said, "Ayan, I have already made arrangements, and I will not let this happen."

In fact, Xiao Chengzhou had already noticed the changes at the border, and he had also reminded Emperor Zhaoyuan.But the older Emperor Zhaoyuan was not as decisive as he was when he was young. He was stubborn and conceited, and didn't take this matter to heart.Even when the battle report of the seizure of the border city was sent, Emperor Zhao Yuan, who had ignored the matter, became angry with Xiao Chengzhou, because no matter before or after the incident, it made him an emperor who became weak because of his old age. Not as wise as before, not as good as his own son.

Xie Yan knew that Xiao Chengzhou was resourceful and far-reaching, even when his father and grandmother talked about Xiao Chengzhou, they always praised him.Seeing Xiao Chengzhou's very sure look, the absurd anger in his heart gradually subsided.

"Brother Zhou." Xie Yan suddenly hugged Xiao Chengzhou, "No matter what, you must return safely."

"You and I will return safely." Xiao Chengzhou said.Xie Yan's appearance was not within his original plan, even though he had put many people around Xie Yan to protect him, but he couldn't feel at ease without personally watching.

In the winter of the 58th year of Daqi.

The cold wind is blowing, and the drums of war are beating.

Xie Yan, who was in another light infantry team, looked back frequently to watch Xiao Chengzhou ride his horse as he rode farther and farther.It wasn't until he couldn't see that he finally turned around and followed the pace of the team with a serious expression. His trip was to follow the team to detour to attack the enemy's rear.They need to go all the way to hide their tracks, and the journey takes a lot of time.

During the march, Xie Yan continued to receive information about the battle on the front line. Xiao Chengzhou led 15 soldiers to meet the enemy head-on, and personally led the cavalry to charge.

On the first day, our army lost tens of thousands of soldiers.

On the second day, our army retreated a hundred miles.

On the third day, retreat another hundred miles.

On the evening of the third day, Xie Yan and the others finally reached the enemy's rear base camp.
