The chill in my bones is even more refreshing than this winter day.
Twelve stepped forward, with the knife still unsheathed, signaling to leave.
Pang Yang knelt at the door without raising his eyes, "Pang Yang has overstepped. Pang Yang will go to collect the punishment after the incident in Shang Shuangzhou is over."
This time is different from the last time, 120,000, he is not conceited.
"Yeah." The voice in the room was unhurried and without any emotion, as if she didn't see the look in her eyes that would make the girl tremble and shy.
Twelve retracted the scabbard and tilted his head slightly to listen carefully to the sound inside.
He wants to know if his master has feelings...
But all he heard was the sound of going to bed.
At this moment, Twelve looked at Pang Yang on the ground as if he was looking at himself in the future.
Everyone has already known how many years Pang Yang has followed, but Pang Yang has never escaped the word "useful".
For the master, as long as it is useful, it can be kept. If it is not useful, it does not need to exist anymore.
So no matter whether Pang Yang is loyal or not, no matter whether Pang Yang goes overboard or not, he is still useful now, and she still trusts him, so the master will not continue to care about her.
Pang Yang knelt on the frozen soil of ice and snow, and the hardness seemed to penetrate his heart and lungs.
"What are you doing kneeling down? We'll be on our way tomorrow." Bai Guo's voice sounded sleepy and exhausted. Pang Yang agreed, but he didn't get up until it was almost dawn.
In the room in the front yard, the waiter respectfully told: "General Chizhong didn't know what he said when he stood in front of Princess Kangle's door, but he just kept kneeling in the end."
The secret guards and dead guards around Princess Kangle were all rewarded by the emperor. Even if they were killed, there was no place to explain, so the servant did not dare to approach, and only dared to watch from a distance.
Zhizhou's face improved a little, and he visibly calmed down, "Kneel down and you will be punished..."
Being punished shows that General Chizhong did not listen to Princess Kangle!
"Let's go ahead and listen to General Chizhong. You will never go wrong!" Zhizhou looked at the boy and said, "Don't be careless."
The boy solemnly agreed and left.
When the sky was dark, Ging Guo had already gotten up and packed up. The long-term fatigue could not be relieved in one night, especially when he was on the road day and night, so Ging Guo's face was visibly pale. Zhizhou, who sent Ging Guo away, felt in his heart. Finally, He still asked: "Should I ask the princess to see the doctor first?"
With this look, those who didn't know would have thought it was her kneeling in the snow last night.
Bai Guo shook his head, tightened his cloak tightly, and said, "Master Zhizhou, please go in."
Pang Yang stood next to Ging Guo. Knowing that Ging Guo could not ride by himself, Pang Yang carried Ging Guo onto his horse.
Zhizhou and others looked calm.
Just say how could a princess come to Shuangzhou so quickly? It turned out to be like this.
The twelve others mounted their horses one after another and then left again.
This time Pang Yang deliberately slowed down, and the horses were no longer running as crazy as before. Bai Guo felt better, and his dull eyes finally calmed down after a few hours.
Pang Yang had never seen such a tired Ging Guo. He just carried Ging Guo into his arms as much as possible, and protected his arms carefully so that Ging Guo would never roll off the horse in a daze.
Twelve horses followed behind, looking at Pang Yang's cautious look with many emotions in his eyes.
He remembered that even those unfavored concubines in the palace would be angry for a few days if they were punished, and they would even cry and complain when meeting the emperor, but now they are in a hurry...
It's no wonder that the master trusts him so much, and he won't be angry with him if he has different intentions.
However, if the betrayer is Pang Yang...
Twelve looked at the back of the figure who was protecting Bai Guo tightly, and looked at Bai Guo who completely trusted him and handed him over to Pang Yang——
If the person who betrayed was Pang Yang, this sentence would not exist.
Twelve had to admit that anyone could betray his master, but he could not.
After another day of walking, it was completely dark before everyone settled at the inn.
Ging Guo was the most useless one among them. Pang Yang almost always supported him when he got off the horse. After entering the room, there was no sound of movement within a few breaths.
At the door, Pang Yang confirmed that Bai Guo had fallen asleep before returning to the next room. However, the hand hanging outside always felt that he needed to protect something.
After walking for two more days, Baiguo could see that the city he passed was empty. Half a day further, he was close to the front line, which was the Wancai City that the Sha Kingdom was attacking.
"Renovate for one night." It took several hours to repair before, but now it was almost close to the front line, and Ging Guo didn't intend to go directly.
The twelve people took the order, arranged to keep their duties, and let everyone else go to rest.
Ging Guo did not fall asleep directly. After waiting for about half an hour, a man in caravan costumes came running towards him on horseback. Pang Yang went to take the envelope and went to the second floor and handed it to Ging Guo, blocking any chance for others to get close to Ging Guo.
"The Kingdom of Sha has destroyed eleven cities, from three directions: east, west, and south." Bai Guo handed the letter to Pang Yang, "They really want to capture Shang Shuangzhou as soon as possible."
Shangshuangzhou was just a state for the Cheng Zhou Kingdom, but for the Sha Kingdom, which had devoted all its national power, it was the beginning of food and a strong national power in the future.
But because of this, Chengzhou would never allow it, let alone indulge it like Yifeng did.
Pang Yang's heart tightened again as he read the contents of the letter, "Wancai City can't hold on until tomorrow. Shang Shuangzhou's military strength has been consumed and only 8,000 are left. They are scattered in three directions... for up to three days."
In three days at most, all the troops will be destroyed.
But it will still take four days at the earliest before reinforcements from Jinlin Prefecture arrive. Four days... are enough for the Saudi Kingdom to completely occupy Shangshuang Prefecture.
Then his third lady is still here...
Bai Guo nodded and said, "If this consumption continues, nothing will be able to resist it, so the frontline general will choose to resist all the way."
Choose one route, and the other two routes will clear out the cities, but they will be hindered by some ruthless means.
"...Brother Pang Yang." Bai Guo looked at Pang Yang, a little confused, "Is it really possible for an army of 120,000 to quietly approach Chengzhou without being discovered?"
Pang Yang pursed his lips and shook his head, "Impossible."
Bai Guo was even more curious, "Then how come the people on the front line don't have any news?"
Pang Yang looked at Bai Guo's confusion and said nothing.
Bai Guo got the answer from Pang Yang's silence, but she didn't say anything, she just rubbed her knuckles gently and frowned.
"Miss Third, if it is abandoned, this road is most likely to be the chosen one." Pang Yang looked at Bai Guo and said: "The city on this road is already half empty, and there is enough time to arrange for the people in the other cities to leave. .”
Bai Guo didn't respond, but he carefully reviewed the layout of Shang Shuangzhou in his mind, and then looked at Pang Yang doubtfully, "You want me to leave?"
The people on this road were arranged to leave, but this road could reach Jinning Prefecture all the way south. No one would take this risk, and it was impossible for Pang Yang not to know about this.
Pang Yang looked at Bai Guo, "If it's really just from the Sha Kingdom, Pang Yang can protect the third lady and leave, but if there are female agents among them..."
He saw the repulsion in Ging Guo's expression and didn't say anything further.
But he knew that once the war intensified, no one would have time to look for this female agent. If Bai Guo was targeted...
Pang Yang looked at Ging Guo, who was sitting in a chair and meditating.
If she was threatened, he would go crazy.
At this moment, Bai Guo suddenly raised his head and looked at Pang Yang. The expression in Pang Yang's eyes had not yet disappeared, and his heart suddenly cooled down in shock.
"Brother Pang Yang, if you can't control yourself to analyze this matter rationally, then I will have to replace you." Bai Guo's words were more serious than ever. Pang Yang felt worried when he heard this, and even more panicked.
I don't know why, but I always feel that the third lady recently... always says something deliberately.
But these words were all directed at him.
Bai Guo pointed to the Wancai City in the letter, "Do you know where this place is?"
Pang Yang came to his senses and shook his head the moment Bai Guo opened his mouth.
Bai Guo paused with his fingertips, then suddenly softened his tone and said, "This is a gambling city."
Gambling was banned in the Chengzhou Kingdom. Even though there was a saying that it was a gambling city, these people complained privately and did not dare to bring it to the public. Therefore, even if they gambled, they did so underground.
Being underground means there are many passages for players to enter and avoid searches by officers and soldiers, making it easy to hide people.
When Pang Yang heard this name, he understood the specialness of this city, and he suddenly fell silent as he was keen on military intelligence.
"The generals of the Zhou Kingdom are being driven back one after another. If there is no victory, the people may really panic."
The people in the caravan have mingled with the people to take command and help the army defend the city.
But long-term suppression will always make people afraid.
Pang Yang said: "The frontline commanding general is Wei Ruizao."
Wei Ruizao was with King Dingxi when he went to the battlefield. He can be said to be half of King Dingxi's master.
Ging Guo didn't know Wei Ruizao, but King Dingxi's military skills were indeed outstanding, so Wei Ruizao must not be simple.
"So, General Wei Ruizao may have been waiting for this battle." Bai Guo closed his eyes, "Let's rest."
Pang Yang looked at Bai Guo and nodded, then left after seeing that Bai Guo was really fine.
In the room, Bai Guo's eyes fell on the burning candle light beside the table...
In the colorful city.
The sky has turned completely dark, but countless torches are still burning on the city wall. Countless soldiers hold weapons tightly in their hands, their faces and bodies are covered with bright red blood, and their armors are scarred, as if their lives are about to disappear.
Under the city where their scarlet eyes were staring were the generals of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia who could never see the end. They were still climbing up, and the swords in their hands were still waving at them!
The sword in Wei Ruizao's hand took away the heads of all the soldiers who wanted to climb up. At this time, his arms had already begun to tremble.
With the continuous resistance without breathing, not only he could no longer hold on, but also the soldiers did not fall down because of their passion.
But the enemy is different from them. The enemy can take turns to rest and attack, without giving them a chance to rest and keeping them exhausted.
After cutting down more than a dozen people from the city wall, Wei Ruizao looked at the curled sword and gasped, scanning the surrounding area with a pair of frightening eyes.
Many soldiers from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia climbed up, and his soldiers fought to the death, but countless soldiers from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia took the opportunity to come up and crush his soldiers to death!
They had asked all the people to evacuate before dark, and now, the only ones left were the soldiers who were going to die.
