Anecdotes of Tianyuan: The Long Night is Young

Chapter 47 Deathstroke 81

"Khan, General Baru is back!"

"What's going on? Isn't Balu protecting Kacha and Aya in Daqi? Hurry up and declare Balu."

"Khan, General Balu has lost a lot of blood, and I'm afraid he won't be able to wake up for a while."

"Why did you lose too much blood? What's going on?"

"When the third prince was inspecting Hulan, he found someone fighting. It turned out that the people of Daqi were fighting with General Balu. The third prince rescued General Balu."

"Bring him into the palace quickly!"

The third prince sent someone to carry Balu into the Mobei Imperial Palace. Mobei Great Khan Ulantuo was very anxious, but Balu didn't wake up at all.Ulantuo hastily ordered several more imperial physicians for consultation, and it was not until late at night that Balu woke up slowly.Seeing that Balu woke up, Ulan Tuo asked him.When Balu explained the ins and outs with eloquence, Ulantuo got angry when he heard it.After ordering the imperial physician to take care of Balu, he ordered the army to be reorganized.Originally, he planned to wait for Kacha and Ah Ya to come back before dispatching troops, but who would have thought that Da Qi dared to put his two sons and daughters under house arrest.Wu Lantuo hated Zhao Xiyan so much that he raped his daughter, the princess of Mobei, and refused to marry in public.Is this bullying him that there is no one in Mobei?

Daqi Barracks

Zhao Xiyan and Zhenbei Hou Yue Wanshan are studying the Beibian Pass and the terrain of Mobei, trying to find a good way to wipe out the enemy troops in Mobei in one fell swoop.Zhao Xiyan looked at the topography of Beibianguan and was very worried. It was not easy to hide in such a terrain.Now that it is snowing heavily outside, these recruits who have been in the Central Plains for a long time are afraid that they will freeze to death before the battle.When Zhao Xiyan was lecturing in the morning, he suddenly came up with a solution.Zhao Xiyan stood on the high platform with the Marquis of Zhenbei and Prince Yi. Zhao Xiyan sighed inwardly as he looked at these soldiers who were cowering in the cold.

"Soldiers, listen up today! There is heavy snow in the north, and the winter here is likely to be long. If Mobei invades, I will never be able to see the beginning of spring again. Do you want to go home?"

"Think! Think! Think!" Wu Yangyang underneath responded neatly.

"Then do you want to defeat Mobei, show off the prestige of our country, and return home in good clothes?"

"Defeat Mobei, show off the prestige of our country, and return home in fine clothes!"

"Very good, he really is my good boy! Now take off your cotton coat! In the school field, you can practice, run, fight, and you can't stop without sweating."

"Your Highness! No!"

"The last general has not consulted the marshal, please forgive me."

"Your Highness, this method is impossible. This place is the border of Daqi in Mobei, and the heavy snow will not stop until February. It is so cold that if you take off your clothes, you will freeze."

"Marshal, if Mobei invades soon, we will still be exhausted in the Central Plains, unable to move an inch in the heavy snow, and all the soldiers will have to die."

"Your Highness is justified, but in today's cold winter, if you take off your cotton clothes, many soldiers will be frozen to death, and they will not be able to survive Mobei's attack."

"That's it, then take your time, take off the thick cotton coat first, and continue training!"

All the soldiers scolded Zhao Xiyan half to death, saying it was an embroidered pillow to keep them warm, and they would freeze to death.Zhao Xiyan went back to the camp and took off the fox fur and cotton padded clothes on his body, and put on the autumn samurai short shirt, and practiced fighting in the school field.Sun Hongzhi and Qin Huai'an met, and chased Zhao Xiyan with a fox fur, asking him to put it on so that he wouldn't freeze.Regardless, Zhao Xiyan sent Huqiu back to the tent, and practiced in the schoolyard by himself.Seeing that Zhao Xiyan was so stubborn, Sun Hongzhi and Qin Huaian had no choice but to change into autumn clothes with him.Qin Huaian grinned from the cold and shivered.The marshal's sons and grandsons changed their clothes one after another, and all the soldiers had to change into autumn clothes when they saw this.Zhao Xiyan instructed Qin Huaian to practice swords and knives in the school grounds. Qin Huaian was beaten many times by Zhao Xiyan, and he was so painful that he covered his sore spots.Zhao Xiyan kept provoking Qin Huai'an, Qin Huai'an didn't want to fight anymore, Zhao Xiyan just didn't let him go, the two of them practiced all morning, and they broke out in sweat.After lunch, Zhao Xiyan was still patrolling in that autumn shirt. On the first day, the soldiers' hands and feet were stiff from the cold, but Zhao Xiyan ordered them not to rest and continue to practice.After half a month like this, even a few lazy ones were frostbitten, and the others resisted.Qin Huai'an found that his body seemed to be much stronger, and he was not so afraid of the cold anymore.Zhao Xiyan knew that Qin Huaian was a woman and her body was not as good as that of a man, so she asked someone to boil ginger soup every day for him to drink as water.

On such a day, training soldiers during the day, and Zhao Xiyan discussing countermeasures with Zhenbeihou and Prince Yi at night are also very fulfilling.Zhao Xiyan and Qin Huai'an still write letters under candles when they are free, and they are thousands of miles apart, and they still read a letter to convey love.Due to the freezing weather and the difficulty of traveling in the winter, Qin Huaian rarely received replies from Shen Jiyue, but there were one or two.But Zhao Xiyan wrote a mountain of letters and sent them to the concubine, but he didn't even get a piece of paper back, as if nothing had disappeared.Seeing how happy Qin Huai'an received Shen Jiyue's letter, Zhao Xiyan felt lonely.Early this morning, Zhao Xiyan got up to watch the sunrise, the sky was covered with snow, the east was turning white, and the scene of the rising sun was so beautiful to Zhao Xiyan.After seeing the beautiful scenery, he hurriedly ran to draw a picture of the white snow and sunrise in Mobei.As soon as the painting was finished, the spies came to report that Mobei had declared war!Yesterday the Great Khan of Mobei worshiped his ancestors and read out the book of crusade, ordering troops to crusade Daqi.Zhao Xiyan hurriedly put down his paintbrush, put on his armor, and went to find the marshal to attack.The marshal hurriedly mobilized troops, Zhao Xiyan told Qin Huaian not to go anywhere in the camp, and took Sun Hongzhi to the city gate with the marshal.Outside the city gate, from a distance, the Mobei army was approaching the city.Zhenbei Hou took Zhao Xiyan, Prince Yi, Qianfeng and others to stand on the city gate.The archers and boulders are ready, waiting for Mobei to attack the city.

"Yue Wanshan, you old man!" The bearded man in the lead was the third prince of Mobei, Ulanba.Wu Lanba never liked to spend too much time talking, and he brought 3 horses to attack the city, and 3 soldiers approached the city, riding on horses, and dust and smoke flew up.The Mobei cavalry moved to climb the ladder and put it on the gate of Sailing City, while dozens of soldiers smashed the huge log into the gate.The Marquis of Zhenbei ordered the Qi soldiers to throw stones down, and Zhao Xiyan ordered the soldiers at the city gate to guard the gate with huge stones and manpower, and they were not allowed to open.Seeing that the stones were about to disappear, Zhao Xiyan couldn't resist the Mobei soldiers who climbed up to attack the city, so Zhao Xiyan ordered ten thousand arrows to be fired.The Mobei soldiers retreated a little, and Yue Fuzhong, the eldest son of Zhenbeihou, led 1 people out of the city gate to meet the Mobei soldiers.Zhao Xiyan followed behind Yue Fuli, the third son of Marquis of Zhenbei, and surrounded them with [-] generals.Zhao Xiyan was a little flustered, he had never killed anyone before, but now he was so agitated and chaotic, Zhao Xiyan subconsciously blocked the big knife that was slashing at him, and killed the Mobei soldier with his backhand.Zhao Xiyan watched the blood splatter everywhere, and the world seemed so quiet that only his own heartbeat could be heard.

Zhao Xiyan rode a war horse and killed the enemy all the way without retreating.But he had never had any experience in battle, and he had his hands and feet slashed, and even Zhao Xiyan's back was slashed with a knife, his skin was torn apart.Zhao Xiyan couldn't feel the pain, and just kept killing the enemy.Ulanba didn't know that it was King Duan of Da Qi, but saw that the armor on his body was not comparable to that of ordinary soldiers, and wanted to take his life.Wu Lanba charged towards Zhao Xiyan on horseback, Zhao Xiyan fought with all his strength, but was knocked down to the ground.Seeing that King Duan was in trouble, Yue Fuzhong flew over and blocked Ulanba's sword.Wu Lanba kicked Zhao Xiyan in the chest, and Zhao Xiyan vomited blood.Yue Fuzhong was entangled with Wulanba, after more than a dozen moves, Yue Fuzhong was defeated.Wu Lanba was about to kill Yue Fuzhong with a knife, but Zhao Xiyan took the knife and slashed at Wu Lanba's hand with all his strength. When Wu Lanba saw the red, Yue Fuzhong wanted to kill Wu Lanba, but Wu Lanba bowed down. Get down and walk away.Yue Fuzhong supported Zhao Xiyan who was on the verge of collapse, and tried to fight all the way out, but he was surrounded heavily.Zhao Xiyan's body was covered with blood and sweat at this time, it was not like winter at all, but like summer.Zhao Xiyan pushed Yue Fuzhong away, picked up the knife and slashed out.The two armies fought for an hour, and Yue Fu loyally protected Zhao Xiyan and fought out.Mobei called Jin to withdraw his troops, and Zhenbeihou also called Jin to withdraw his troops. Seeing that Mobei soldiers could not get any good, they went back to Mobei.Leaving a field of bright red, dyed the white snow red, those who fell were intertwined and chaotic, and it was impossible to tell who was who.Zhao Xiyan lasted until the last Mobei soldier withdrew and fell down.

Yue Fuzhong carried Zhao Xiyan on his back, urged the city gate to open, and hurried back to the camp.One-third of the generals were killed in this battle, but less than six thousand soldiers from Mobei were killed.Marquis of Zhenbei felt all sorts of feelings in his heart, seeing that his three sons had all died, and King Duan was seriously injured, how should he explain to the court.

Zhao Xiyan was in a coma for a day and a night in the camp, suffering from severe external and internal injuries. After sleeping for a while, he managed to wake up.When Qin Huaian saw Zhao Xiyan, who was carried by Yue Fuzhong, covered in blood, he was so frightened that he was out of his wits.The military doctor cleaned Zhao Xiyan's wound and prescribed a prescription, and Qin Huaian decocted the medicine to serve him.After Zhao Xiyan took care of him for a few days, his spirit just improved, and Mobei came to attack the city again, and even Prince Yi watched the battle.This time Zhenbei Hou used a good strategy and did not entangle with the Mobei soldiers for a long time. He fought quickly and retreated if he lost the enemy.Retreating if you lose the enemy may seem a bit useless, but it is also the best way for Daqi to preserve its troops at the moment.Mobei soldiers clamored to kill Duan Wang and take Duan Wang's head to vent the hatred of the profuse Khan.After a few days of fighting, although Daqi was defeated, the loss of soldiers was not as severe as that of Mobei's first attack on the city.When the snow melted, Mobei's soldiers had little advantage in combat except for their elite soldiers.

The wounds on Zhao Xiyan's body and the internal injuries on his chest were treated similarly.On this day, Zhao Xiyan led Qin Huai'an to stand at the gate of the city to watch the battle. He saw that the soldiers commanded by the Marquis of Zhenbei would encircle the formation in four directions, and the double-layer soldiers would encircle the Mobei soldiers.On this day, it was a rare victory over the Mobei soldiers, and the army rejoiced.Just when Mobei soldiers had killed many soldiers, and some mighty soldiers were trying to retreat, Su Ri'an led a small group of troops from outside the city gate to chase the poor bandits.The Marquis of Zhenbei ordered him not to chase him, but Su Ri'an ignored him and insisted on chasing him.Zhao Xiyan was extremely worried, saying that the poor should not chase after him, and they still don't know if the kid will come back after chasing him.Zhao Xiyan didn't think about it, so he ignored Zhenbei Hou's dissuasion and chased him out with his men.Sure enough, in the territory of Mobei, Su Ri'an was killed by Mobei soldiers, and Su Ri'an was also seriously injured.Zhao Xiyan led his men and horses to kill, protecting Su Ri'an. Zhao Xiyan's old wounds had not healed, and now he had new wounds.How could Sun Hongzhi not know that Zhao Xiyan's old injury hadn't healed, so he protected him all the way.Ulan Ba, who hadn't shown up for many days, came. Ulan Ba ​​had already known that this handsome man was King Duan of Daqi, and he even came straight to King Duan, all the tricks were trying to kill Zhao Xiyan.Just when Zhao Xiyan's soldiers were severely damaged, Mobei sent additional reinforcements.Su Ri'an was a little scared, how could this be so, he looked at Zhao Xiyan.At this time, Zhao Xiyan, Sun Hongzhi and Wu Lanba were fighting, and Su Ri'an also came to fight.Zhao Xiyan and the others were surrounded, and when they were about to catch their lives, Zhenbei Hou led an army and chased them straight.Seeing that Zhao Xiyan was seriously injured, Ulanba ordered people to retreat when he saw that the huge Qi army was approaching, and when they retreated halfway, Ulanba ordered people to shoot arrows.Wu Lanba personally shot an arrow with a bow and hit Zhao Xiyan in the chest, and Zhao Xiyan fell straight down.Su Ri'an saw that in order to protect himself, Zhao Xiyan was hit by an arrow with new wounds and old wounds, but also lost his soul.

Zhao Xiyan was carried back to Daqi's barracks, and with the last of his consciousness, he told Zhenbeihou that no matter whether he was alive or dead, he would declare the death of King Duan of Daqi at this moment, and report the victory and news of his death to the court.Su Ri'an felt really sorry for Zhao Xiyan, and burst into tears.Zhao Xiyan was carried back to the barracks and invited a military doctor. The military doctor checked Zhao Xiyan's injuries and shook his head secretly.Qin Huaian couldn't accept that Zhao Xiyan might not be able to wake up, his eyes were red, he picked up the military doctor's collar, feeling agitated. "Tell me, what happened to King Duan! What do you mean by shaking your head!"

"Duan Wang's old injury has not healed, and the new injury is serious. I will prescribe a prescription, which is taken internally and externally. If he can survive until tomorrow, he will be able to revive. If not, then..."

"What are you talking about! What nonsense are you talking about! Duan Wang Hongfu equals the sky, absolutely impossible!"

Qin Huaian's eyes were red, he couldn't believe it, and couldn't recover for a long time.Su Ri'an looked at the sleeping Zhao Xiyan, his body was covered in blood, his skin was ripped apart, and he knelt beside the bed with red eyes.He was full of apologies in his heart, he didn't want to do this, he never thought that this brother-in-law who had never had any friendship would risk his life to save him.The Marquis of Zhenbei sighed all over, and put the funeral report of King Duan into the military case.

When Emperor Shaoyuan received the time report from the eight hundred li urgent army, he read the last word with trembling hands.Sunset on the west mountain, bells and drums on tall buildings, filial piety people rang the death knell, a total of 81 tones.In the afterglow of the sun, wild geese return to the north, and the sound of the death bell.
