Su Le pulled Yue Ling and jumped off the city wall, and ran all the way to the slope outside the city. After taking the Tiger Mountain Spear and Tianyuan Bow, they ran towards the Qingyun Mountain in the north without looking back.
After getting a spear and a Tianwu Bow, Su Le felt more at ease. In addition, Su Le could use the power of the Heaven-turning Seal to form an army of demonic beasts, and he no longer had to be afraid of the white-haired divine envoy.
The two of them ran in pursuit. During this period, Su Le looked back and found that the white-haired divine envoy had not followed, so he felt relieved a little.
It is late at night now, and Qingyun Mountain is shrouded in the bright moonlight, as if covered with a layer of silver-white fine yarn. From a distance, it looks both mysterious and holy. However, there are huge dangers hidden in this stretching Qingyun Mountain.
All kinds of powerful monsters like to come out at night. Qingyun Mountain in the middle of the night is a paradise for all kinds of monsters.
Even though it was extremely dangerous, Su Le had no choice but to take Yue Ling into the dark mountain forest without hesitation, because he was not sure whether the white-clothed divine envoy would still pursue them. Compared with various monsters, the white-clothed divine envoy was better than them.
It's more difficult to deal with, and you have to encounter someone who is extremely powerful.
Big monsters are not that frequent. If you are careful, they are very energetic. Moreover, Su Le himself has the power of the Heaven-turning Seal. Not only will ordinary monsters not attack him, but they will also follow him and listen to his commands.
, which is equivalent to setting up a layer of peripheral defense for them.
After running into the mountains, Su Le found a place under a big tree and sat down with Yue Ling to rest.
"Girl, would you be scared if we slept here at night?" Su Le looked at Yue Ling with a smile and asked.
"Ah?" Yue Ling yelled, pointing to the dark woods nearby and said, "Just... sleep here?"
"Yes, it's so nice here. You can not only appreciate the bright moon in the sky, but also listen to the cries of insects and birds, so you can sleep so soundly!" Su Le pointed to the moon in the sky and said with a smile.
"Brother Le, do you really want to sleep here?" Yue Ling asked pitifully when she saw that Su Le seemed serious.
Su Le lovingly touched Yue Ling's girl's little head and said with a smile: "Girl, you can sleep peacefully. Brother Le will always watch over you. No wild beast will dare to come and disturb our eldest lady's dream."
"Well!" Yue Ling no longer cared about the girl's reserve and got directly into Su Le's arms, wrapping her two lotus-like arms tightly around Su Le's neck.
When Su Le looked at this girl, she no longer had the reserve of the girl before. It was as if she and Su Le had been lovers for many years. When she hugged him naturally, she felt a little unnatural. After all, in his heart, Xia Shuang was his.
A woman, and for Yue Ling, Su Le loved her as a little sister at first, but
After all, Yue Ling is now a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old, and she is also engaged to him. She always feels a little uncomfortable sleeping together like this, but when she sees Yue Ling hugging him tightly and closing her eyes slightly,
There was still a smile on her pretty face, but Su Le couldn't bear to push her away, so she had no choice but to let him hug her like this.
"Brother Le, let's get married after the Chinese New Year, okay?" Su Le just leaned against the tree and was about to close his eyes to rest when Yue Ling's lazy voice came to his ears.
Yue Ling said this out of the blue. When Su Le heard this, his mind was confused and he didn't know how to answer.
"Girl, you're still young, why don't you wait a little longer, okay?" Su Le thought for a long time and finally plucked up the courage to say.
Su Le waited for a long time, but saw no response from Yue Ling. When he lowered his head, he saw that the girl had fallen asleep on his shoulder. Su Le looked at the sleeping Yue Ling, smiled, and said softly: "
I also want to live a stable life, but in these troubled times, we have never been given a chance!"
The next morning, when Su Le woke up, Yue Ling was no longer around. Su Le quickly ran to look for her. When he was extremely anxious, Yue Ling's girl stopped running back and brought a handful of wild fruits from nowhere.
, let Su Le eat. The two of them ate a few, barely enough to have breakfast, and then set off again to the southern Xinjiang camp.
Since the road was familiar, the two crossed the Mekong River before sunset and rushed to the southern Xinjiang camp. As soon as they arrived at the camp, Hou Shun came to find Su Le.
"Boss, according to the report from the shadow, Lu Mian, the general of the Later Tang Dynasty, learned that the prince Lu Huang was killed and the three thousand Yan Guards had gone without returning. He was furious. With his younger brother Lu You as the commander, he sent 200,000 troops to Xia.
The Guoxing Division is investigating. At present, the army of the Later Tang Dynasty has passed through the Cangyue Gorge and is advancing towards the Xia Kingdom." As soon as Hou Shun saw Su Le, he hurriedly reported it.
Hou Shun received the information sent back by Shadow last night, but since Su Le and Yue Ling never responded, he was unable to report the information to Su Le in time. As for where the army of the Later Tang Dynasty was at this time, Shadow has not yet reported back.
Su Le was not surprised by the reaction of the Later Tang Dynasty, but he did not expect that Lu Mian would send his younger brother Lu You as commander. Lu You's strength was extraordinary. It was said that he had reached the ninth level of martial arts, second only to his brother Lu Mian in the Later Tang Dynasty. This time Lu You
In the name of revenge, they led a large army to attack Xia State directly without giving Xia State any chance to explain. It seems that they broke up with each other early on and wanted to take advantage of Xia State's difficulties to devour Xia State.
Now the situation in the Xia Kingdom is a dead end. Seeing the death of the general of the Xia Kingdom, the surrounding forces have already made plans to carve up the Xia Kingdom. I wonder what Xia Yanbing will do.
"Now that the Later Tang Dynasty has come to this muddy water again, I wonder if the Shang Kingdom will be able to endure the loneliness." Su Le said lightly, and suddenly a light flashed in his eyes, and he said to Hou Shun: "Houzi, during this period, how many of you have done?"
Send Shadow to the Xia-Shang border to inquire about information. If
What I expected was true. Even if the Shang State had no time to take care of the mess that was the Xia State, they would not let Later Tang take advantage of it. After all, it was Shang State, not the Later Tang State, that put Xia State into such a predicament. How could they be willing to take advantage of it?
Let the post-Tang people snatch the duck."
"No!" Hou Shun said yes and then left the camp.
After Hou Shun left, Su Le's face gradually became clouded, and he murmured: "The chaos in the world is finally about to begin..."
In the capital of Xia Kingdom, Wende Hall, Xia Yanbing and all the ministers have arrived at the main hall.
Xia Yanbing stood in front of the high dragon chair, slammed the battle report in his hand to the ground, and cursed loudly: "The people of the Later Tang Dynasty bullied me too much!"
Xing Long below saluted Xia Yanbing and said: "Your Majesty, now the army of the Later Tang Dynasty has conquered several cities in our southeast, and is currently attacking Xuancheng, our important southeast town, and our army in the east is being dragged by black ships and unable to move forward to resist.
Although the southern Xinjiang army killed the barbarian king Shimo, the barbarians could still stand for thousands of years.
If a big country is not destroyed, it must have its support, and it will soon counterattack. What's more, the army in southern Xinjiang is small and has few generals, and its combat power is weak. Even if it is drawn to the battlefield, it will not be the opponent of the Later Tang Dynasty. Now we are the only one in the Western Xinjiang camp.
It can be mobilized, and the veteran generals will fight to resist the army of the Later Tang Dynasty, and I will not let the Later Tang Dynasty people take another step forward even to the death!"
Xia Yanbing looked at Xing Long below, and couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. Although the Eastern Xinjiang army had good combat power and had the most elite battalions, it had never been able to defeat the black ships. It must have been Zhang Yang who deliberately delayed it, even if he
I want to mobilize the Eastern Xinjiang Army, but I'm afraid it's not that easy; Su Le, the Southern Xinjiang Army, has repeatedly accomplished great feats, but firstly, the troops are too few, and secondly, as Xing Long said, the barbarians are very likely to counterattack, so Southern Xinjiang
The army cannot be moved, it is left there
It is a deterrent; the Western Xinjiang Army currently has 130,000 soldiers, but apart from Haotian's Tiefeng Battalion, the four elite battalions are available, and I am not sure whether the other three can be used, and this Western Xinjiang army is for defense.
Shang Guo
Although the Shang people are currently in civil strife, An Ruyi and the general Shang Shichao do not know whether the winner has been decided. If the Western Xinjiang Army is mobilized, if the Shang army comes to attack, it will completely fall into an abyss of irreversibility.
.
"Your Majesty, the situation is now at a critical stage and we cannot delay our visit. Please make your decision as soon as possible!" Seeing Xia Yanbing's delay in replying, Xing Long urged him again.
"Okay!" Xia Yanbing walked back and forth in front of the dragon chair for a while, and suddenly shouted, "Xing Long, the commander-in-chief of the Western Xinjiang Army, has ordered you to lead the four elite battalions of the Western Xinjiang Army, with a total of 60,000 elite soldiers, to declare
Block the Later Tang Dynasty people in the city area. If the leaders of the other three elite battalions do not obey the order, they can be killed first and then reported! Zuo Xiang Ao Wushuang took over as the commander-in-chief of the remaining fifteen ordinary battalions of the Western Xinjiang army to prevent the Shang Kingdom."
Xing Long and Ao Wushuang went out together and loudly said "Promise".
When Xing Long saw Xia Yan's cold and stern eyes, he couldn't help but shudder in his heart: Xing Long was really not sure that he could mobilize the other three elite battalions, but now the situation in Xia Kingdom is critical. If they refuse to obey the transfer order at this time, they will be treason.
, it is reasonable to kill them, but this move will definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of the three noble families, but now they can no longer care about that much.
"As far as I know, the coach of the Later Tang Dynasty is Lu You. This man is very strong. I am afraid that Marshal Xing will be his opponent. I will send Emperor Xia Yi to assist you. I hope that you two will keep the Later Tang Dynasty away from the south of Xuancheng.
." Xia Yanbing said firmly as if he had made up his mind.
"Your Majesty, no!" Xing Long shouted, "The emperor's uncle Xia Yi is very powerful. With him in the Southern Xinjiang Army, he can guard the southwest gate with very few troops. If he is easily mobilized, the barbarians will definitely take the opportunity to counterattack. Then we will
I'm afraid that if the Southern Xinjiang Army is unable to respond, the west and southwest gates of our Xia Kingdom will be opened wide, with serious consequences. Please think twice, Your Majesty!"
"Commander Xing's worries are not unreasonable, but the Southern Xinjiang Army has defeated the Shiman twice. Even if the Shiman counterattacks again, it will take a certain amount of time to prepare. Moreover, our adjustment of Xia Yi is carried out in secret, and the Shiman will not dare to move easily.
soldiers, and I think the Southern Xinjiang Army coach Su Le
Resourceful, I believe he can handle it, this matter has been decided as it is, no further discussion is needed!" Xia Yanbing was worried at this time whether Xia Yi would listen to his instructions, after all, he, the emperor's uncle, has never had anything to do with the Xia Kingdom's royal family.
, seems to only listen to the orders of Su Le.
"No." Xing Long knew that this was a helpless move, and the emperor had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Xia Yanbing walked down, patted Xing Long on the shoulder, and said meaningfully, "Commander Xing, the commander-in-chief and the emperor's uncle of the Xia Kingdom Security Department, please help Yan Bing to safeguard the Xia Kingdom's foundation for thousands of years, Yan Bing, please!"
"
When Xing Long heard Xia Yanbing's sincerity, he quickly knelt down in front of him and shouted: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will serve you to the death!"
