Chapter 1306: 612 Marry Another
"Commander, Xiao Yi, the prince of Zhennan, led an army to invade our Nanliang city more than half a month ago, and has already broken five cities including Tiange City and Gehe City! Yes... I'm afraid it will be breached soon. Commander, please bring your troops back to rescue!"
In the study room of the Dengli City Defense House, a young man with scars and exhaustion knelt on the ground, his voice sobbing.
In front of a stick of incense, he finally risked his life to break through the siege and entered Dengli City. He immediately met the coach Ikaluo with the waist card given by the King of Nanliang.
In the study, it was so silent that even the sound of breathing stopped. Whether it was Ikaluo who was sitting behind the desk or Berhe who was standing beside him, they were shocked by the military newspaper and almost cried out.
In the end, there was only one sentence left that repeatedly echoed in their minds: Xiao Yi and his army are about to break through Wuli City? !
Ikalo squeezed out a voice between his teeth, "Why didn't you report it until now?!"
"Commander." The young general raised his head, his face was covered with blood, "The king sent several letters of flying pigeons to you to ask for help, all of them went into the sea, and sent several groups of people to report the news to the commander, but there was no news. "..." Even he was in a near-death situation, protected by the lives of his compatriots, and he was lucky enough to complete the task.
Ikaluo's heart seemed to be pinched in the palm of an invisible big palm, breathless for a while, and his mind went blank.
"Big guy!"
Boerhe on the side looked at Ikalo nervously, I was really afraid that the commander would not be able to bear it... Dengli City still has the commander in charge of the overall situation, and Wuli City is waiting for rescue. At this time, the commander is not Their backbone must not fall!
After a while, Ikalo came back to his senses like a dream, and murmured: "Southern Border Army, no, how did Xiao Yi get to Nanliang..." It's only been a few days!
Boerhe's thoughts moved, and he was also full of doubts.
Yes, their Nanliang is located in the south of Baiyue. It is not a place where the Southern Border Army can rush to the place by rushing and rushing all night. Back then, their army from Nanliang also marched through Baiyue for more than 20 days before entering the southern border... No matter how you count, Xiao Yi's army could not have arrived in Nanliang silently more than half a month ago. what!
Ikaluo took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
There are only two ways for the Southern Border Army to invade their Nanliang, either by borrowing from Baiyue like them, or by bypassing a mountain range extending from the southeast of Baiyue to Southern Border, but it will take longer. No matter which way, the ordinary infantry had to march for at least more than a month, and even if the cavalry dashed all the way, it would never be possible to complete the raid so resolutely. What's more, as far as he knew, the Southern Border Army should not have tens of thousands of cavalry.
So……
Ikalu's right hand on his chin suddenly stopped, then he stood up without warning, strode towards the wall with the map on it, looked at Nanliang's location, and reported the news without looking back. The young soldier asked: "You repeat, which cities are lost now, and what is the order of Xiao Yi's siege?"
The young soldier hurriedly clasped his fists and replied: "Back to the commander, Xiao Yi took only one day to break the Tiange City, and then the army descended all the way. After that, Gehe City, Qingti City, Sunset City, and Chang'an City were broken one by one. ."
Ikaluo stretched out an index finger and moved from Tiange City on the map to Gehe City... all the way south to Wuli City, after a pause, he returned to the same path, and finally stopped at Tiange again. Cheng, carefully observed the surrounding of Tiange City, and his attention quickly focused on the black swamp next to Tiange City. The other side of this black swamp is the southern border.
This unnamed black swamp exudes a strong black smoke-like methane all year round, which is extremely poisonous, so that black smoke lingers over the swamp all year round, as if it is shrouded in thick fog all year round.
Ikaluo half-squinted his eyes, stared at the map on the wall for a while, and said thoughtfully: "Is this commander remember that Zhennan Wang Shizi is good at medicine?"
Bo Erhe was stunned for a while, and then said: "Go back to the commander, the scouts in Yanding City before came to the news that the medicines supplied to the Southern Border Army were all prepared by the imperial concubine."
Ikaluo was silent for a while, a heavy haze appeared in his eyes, and his thoughts flew: The previous attack on Yanding City was defeated, which means that the poison of the heart-eaten blue has no effect on the Southern Border Army, that is to say , In fact, Heart Eclipse Blue has long been recognized, Xiao Yi is just playing tricks! ...If this matter is also related to Concubine Shi, then Concubine Shi's medical skills must be extraordinary!
It must be that Concubine Shizi developed some medicine to help the Southern Border Army pass through the poisonous black swamp and take a shortcut to reach Nanliang in a short period of time!
So to say……
Ikalo suddenly realized, the fists of both hands clenched tighter and tighter.
He got it!
These days, Guan Yubai seems to be ready to go, as if he will do something at any time, but in fact, he has never launched a decent offensive. It turned out that the purpose of Guan Yubai was not to attack the city, but to divert their attention and cover the prince Xiao Yi secretly from the Black Marsh to Nanliang. And through the siege of the city, the connection between Dengli City and the outside world was cut off, so that he could not receive help from Nanliang!
Let Nan Liang fall into a situation of isolation and helplessness!
But now, even if he finally realized this, it was too late!
This time, in order to conquer the southern border, the king also thought about it for a long time. Considering that Baiyue is like a tiger whose teeth have been pulled out, he is cruel, and handed over fifty thousand heroes to his own hands. In addition, when the five kings came Another 20,000 troops were brought in, and these 70,000 horses were already more than half of Nanliang's troops...
No one would have thought that Xiao Yi would attack!
The rear of Nanliang is empty, and in the face of Xiao Yi's menacing approach, Zhucheng will be defeated like a mountain.
Now the capital is in danger!
How to do? !
The Southern Border Army can pass through the Black Swamp, but his army can't. If he detours to Baiyue, even if he rushes back, it may be too late.
For a moment, Ikaluo's heart kept falling, falling, and falling to the bottom of the valley. He felt cold all over, as if he was in boundless hell.
Once Nanliang is captured, what if he defends Dengli City? !
It's just an island in a vast ocean, and it will be captured sooner or later!
At that time, what awaits him is nothing but doom...
Ikaluo's expression was extremely solemn, and he finally gritted his teeth. Now, he can only gamble!
Thirty-six strategies, the second strategy: surround Wei and save Zhao.
He can only take the initiative to attack the southern border. As long as the southern border is forced into a desperate situation, Xiao Yi has to come back to support, then the danger of Nanliang will be solved naturally!
I just hope that the king can last a little longer.
"Ta Tata..."
At this moment, a messy footstep sounded from outside along with the collision of armor.
Soon, a soldier strode into the study, panting, and said, "Commander, the Southern Border Army is attacking the city again!"
If it had been before, Ikaluo had been so flustered and restless, his thoughts were up and down, but today is different, he snorted coldly, and said, "This official Yubai is pretending again, trying to disturb our army!"
What the commander meant was...Berhe thoughtfully and blurted out: "Commander, that Guan Yubai has been repeatedly harassing but not attacking these days, is it because he is not strong enough?"
Ikaluo sarcastically drew a cold smile, that's not it!
Xiao Yi at least took away most of the troops in Southern Border, leaving Guan Yubai as an empty shell. Otherwise, why would Guan Yubai deliberately prolong the battle line? With his past style, he has already made a difference! It can be seen that he has no choice but to bluff...
Before, he was only confused by the prestige of Guan Yubai.
This time, he will never let his tricks succeed again!
Ikaluo pondered for a while, then ordered: "Go! Go to the North City Gate with this commander!" He wanted to see what other tricks Guan Yubai could play!
"Yes, Commander!" Berher responded with a loud voice and clasped his fists.
Ikaluo took Berhe and a few personal soldiers out of the study, and was about to head towards the gate, but saw the fire outside, the blood-colored fire dyed the sky red, and the gray smoke rose.
what happened? ! Ikaluo frowned, and was about to shout someone coming, when he heard a mess of footsteps coming here, accompanied by an anxious voice: "Master, Master... It's not good!"
A personal soldier pressed the scabbard with one hand, hurriedly ran, and shouted in fear: "Commander, the Southern Border Army is attacking! The water is going over the west wing..."
"What?!" Ikalo blurted out in disbelief, his eyes widened to the extreme.
This is impossible!
The city has just been attacked, and the city gate should not be broken. How could the Southern Border Army be in the city? !
However, the facts cannot be questioned. There was smoke of gunpowder outside, and soon I heard a faint sound of shouting and killing from outside the mansion, mixed with the sound of weapons colliding, and the sound of rumbling footsteps. The originally quiet Dengli City seemed to be a The hot water in the pot is usually boiled in an instant.
Ikal's face was blue and black, and his heart was heavy.
"What the hell is going on?!" Boerhe asked impatiently, "How could the Southern Border Army break through the city gate so quickly!"
The personal soldier immediately clasped his fists and replied, "Commander, general, I don't know what happened to the little one... The two city gates in the north and south are clearly guarded by heavy troops, and they have never been breached, but hundreds of soldiers of the Southern Border Army are suddenly there. Appeared in the city!" There was no warning, just like a ghost!
As he said that, the personal soldier trembled, and a thought emerged in his heart: Could it be that the Southern Border Army has the help of gods? !
? "Whoosh whoosh—"
Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking through the air, and Boerhe followed the sound and stood in front of Ikaluo alertly. Several personal soldiers beside him also guarded Ikaluo with a solemn expression.
"Tie Ya!" Burhe blurted out with a look of horror, "It's the God's Arm Battalion! It's the God's Arm Battalion!"
Countless fiery iron arrows shot from above like a torrential rain, forming a dense rain of fire.
The garrison was in chaos.
The direction from which the fire rain was shooting was on a seven-story pagoda that was just across the street from the garrison. This seven-story pagoda was the tallest building in Dengli City. It was only two hundred steps away from the garrison. The distance couldn't be better!
At this moment, the soldiers of the Divine Arm Battalion have occupied every floor of the tower, aiming the repeating crossbow at the garrison. The iron arrows they used today were all pre-soaked in kerosene. The torches that pass through the front will be ignited by the way and turn into flame arrows, piercing the air like countless meteors, unstoppable...
It's just a matter of seconds, the garrison has turned into a sea of fire...
Fu Yunhe, who is on the seventh floor of the Seven-storied Pagoda, is observing the situation in the garrison with his clairvoyance, and the corner of his mouth is slightly hooked.
Everything is as planned by An Yihou, very smooth!
In the past half month, Marquis Anyi has dispatched troops to surprise Dengli City every day. Ikaluo and others in the city have been on high alert, focusing on the north and south gates. The surprise raids since then were just cover, not only to help the eldest brother’s army divert their attention, but also to dig a tunnel from outside the city to the inside of the city. For several days, the soldiers switched shifts to dig day and night, and the tunnel was finally excavated. Dug it up last night.
After the Marquis of Anyi ordered the entire army to recharge, another wave of siege was launched.
This time, it was an attack from inside and out!
"Boom-"
"Boom-thump-"
At this time, the sound of battle drums came from outside the city, and each beat was as loud as thunder.
Fu Yunhe looked at the sound subconsciously, and through his clairvoyance, he could clearly see the flag embroidered with the word "official" spread out in the cold wind, as if he could hear it screeching in his ears.
The sound of the war drums sounded, which meant that Marquis Anyi was really going to order a siege, and it was no longer just a small fight. The outcome of this battle was here!
In the city of Dengli, the smoke of gunpowder is everywhere, murderous, as if there are layers of dark clouds shrouded above...
"Attack!" Fu Yunhe waved his hand violently and shouted, "Destroy these damn Nanliang people, let's go home for the New Year!"
"Yes!"
It is now December seventeenth, and everyone firmly believes that they will be able to end this half-year war before the Chinese New Year!
On the battlefield, soldiers are fighting hard to end the war within this year.
In Luoyue City, the people were also beaming with joy because the New Year was coming, and all the mansions were preparing for the New Year.
The same is true of Zhennan Palace. Early this morning, Thrush came in beaming and said, "Prince Concubine, the Nangong Palace sent someone to send a boxing gift, and I would like to say hello to you..."
When she heard that it was from her family, Nangong Yue's eyes lit up and she asked, "Let people come in!"
Not long after, a nanny was brought in, along with a few letters, which were presented to Nangong Yue respectfully.
Nangong Yue couldn't wait to ask about the Nangong Mansion. After learning that her parents, brother and sister-in-law were all well and everything went smoothly, she happily rewarded her with a first-class seal, and then let them take it down for a good rest.
After that nanny left, Nangong Yue quickly hid back in the inner room and read the family's letter.
Each of her parents, brother and sister-in-law wrote her a letter, one after another, in which they described their daily life and their thoughts about her...
Nangong Yue was fascinated by it, as if she had returned to when she was still in the capital, her face inevitably showed some thoughts of her parents and elder brother, until she opened Fu Yunyan's letter, she was suddenly refreshed.
In Fu Yunyan's letter, she first stated that she had become Nangong Yue's sister-in-law. Although she couldn't hear her calling her "sister-in-law", don't forget to address her when replying to the letter. That relaxed tone made Nangong Yue forget the sadness in her heart, and she couldn't help but chuckle. Fu Yunyan wrote a lot of things, and on the second letter, she mentioned about Yimei, no, or about Yimei's cousin Zou Lin.
As far as Nangong Yue knew, in less than a month after Yimei and Zou Lin separated, Zou Lin, under the control of his mother, Mrs. Lei, married another successor, the Song family, who was said to be very prosperous. What happened after that, Nangong Yue didn't pay attention anymore.
until today...
Fu Yunyan said in the letter that the Song family believed that she was born of a good citizen and a girl of yellow flowers. She was married to Zou Lin at a low level. Naturally, Zou Lin was not allowed to take a concubine, and she asked the housekeeper as soon as she entered the door. At first, Mrs. Lei thought He didn't want to, but the Song family really was a good child. He had a body within two months of going through the door, and the Zou family gave birth to a fat son in eight months of pregnancy. This made Mrs. Lei very happy. When taking a concubine, he immediately handed over the house deed and money to his daughter-in-law.
After Mr. Song took the money, he went to deposit the money, and within a few days, he made several taels, and in a few months, the money was doubled several times. Because of this, Mrs. Lei was more convinced of the daughter-in-law here. She only felt that her daughter-in-law was capable, and she told people everywhere that she would wait for her happiness in the future.
This "Qing Fu" has only been enjoyed for more than a year. One day more than a month ago, the Zou family woke up, only to find that the Song family ran away with their son, and all the money and valuables in the family were gone... …
In the end, it was Zou Lin who found a letter left by the Song family under the pillow. The letter said that the Song family actually had a cousin who was a childhood sweetheart. The two fell in love with each other back then, but it was a pity that she had to marry because of her parents' orders. Zou Lin, originally she also wanted to be Zou Lin's wife, but unfortunately her cousin came to her quietly a few months ago, and the old love between the two rekindled. They really didn't want to live this kind of sneaky life, and they didn't want to deceive Zou Lin anymore, so they had to fly away. As for Zou Lin's son, he was actually her cousin's child, so the Zou family should stop trying to find them.
The Zou family was still stunned, and a group of ferocious creditors came to the door, saying that they were looking for Song to collect debts. It turned out that the Song family had asked someone to borrow the money and then released the money. Now that the Song family has run away, the creditors are naturally chasing the Zou family to repay the debt...
After this incident broke out, the whole Nangong Mansion knew about it. The Su family was furious. She felt that because these two servants made Nangong Mansion a laughing stock in the capital, they almost didn't sell their mother and son. The mother-in-law and the mother-in-law went to Lin Shi to intercede for a while, and then went to Yimei for help... Only then did the creditors agree to ease the debt.
After this incident, Mrs. Lei and Zou Lin thought about Yimei's good news. After thinking about it, the mother and son went to Sun's house to find Yimei. They made up their minds, as long as Yimaken and Sun Ye Heli, Zou Lin can marry Yimei again... After hearing that shameless remark, Yimei became furious and fainted. Only when the doctor came did she realize that Yimei was there.
Then Mrs. Lei said foolishly, "Isn't Yimei not going to give birth?"
The doctor "kindly" took a pulse on Zou Lin. It turned out that it wasn't that Yimei couldn't give birth, it was Zou Lin who had the problem... The mother and son of the Zou family were dumbfounded.
Fu Yunyan wrote three full pieces of letter paper, her words were amusing and brisk, as if her voice was whispering in Nangong Yue's ear.
Seeing that Nangong Yue was in a good mood, the maids serving in the inner room exchanged glances secretly.
Queer asked boldly: "Prince Shizi, what did the second young lady tell you?" Could it be that the second young lady is happy? ……its not right. If the second young lady is happy, it's impossible for the steward just now to not mention it? !
Nangong Yue smiled and gave the letter in the middle to Que'er, so Thrush and the others gathered around curiously, Que'er simply started to read, her voice was clear, and sometimes she deliberately imitated Fu Yunyan's intonation, so she could hear a few The maid exclaimed.
"That's great!" Thrush said excitedly, "Sister Yimei finally managed to keep the clouds open to see the bright moon!" She knew that since Concubine Shizi said that there is no problem with Sister Yimei, Sister Yimei must be fine.
Queer carefully folded the letter paper again, and said, "Sis Yimei has a body, then we have to make some small clothes for the future little nephew."
"It's natural..."
The maids gathered around Nangong Yue and said each and every one of you. Everyone was happy for Yimei. In just a few words, they divided their work into clothes, hats, shoes, etc., including diapers.
The atmosphere in the room was very relaxed, and the silver bell-like laughter of the maids could be heard from time to time.
At this moment, Ying'er picked up the curtain and came in and said, "Prince Concubine, Mrs. Lin has sent someone over here, so you can hurry over and say that Imperial Physician Wu is also there."
Imperial Physician Wu... Nangong Yue's face condensed, and she immediately understood that it must be Imperial Physician Wu who managed to get the Wuhe paste.
