I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of troops, right? "
The top of Sheling Mountain.
Fei She and Yin Batian led the remaining disciples of the Seventh Cultivator Sect to the edge of the cliff. They looked at the army surrounding them at the bottom of the mountain. From such a distance, they could see the crowds of people below. Fei She couldn't help but blink. Jump, shocked.
To this day, he no longer dares to underestimate the combat power of the Tang Dynasty army. Previously, he had thought that the Seventh Cultivator Sect had the right time, location, and people. If the imperial army wanted to completely capture it, it would cost at least a lot of casualties. Thousands of people, but in the end today's real fight, Li Zexuan, Dugu Xin, Dugu Feiying and the Beiya Imperial Army taught him how to behave.
The battle losses of more than two hundred people were a big number for Li Zexuan, but for Fei Shen and the Seventh Cultivation Sect, it was far from the original expectations~! Also, if Fei Shen hadn't given up his cultivation at the last moment and brought the Seventh Cultivation Serpent back to its peak state to fight, the current Seventh Cultivation Sect might have been destroyed by the imperial army.
"Hmph~! This Li Shimin is really stupid, he actually used so many troops for the personal grudge between Li Zexuan and your junior brother~! Alas~! Fortunately they didn't attack, otherwise we wouldn't be able to withstand it even with the help of the Seventh Cultivation Serpent~ !”
Yin Batian frowned and sighed slightly in a voice that only he and Fei Snake could hear. Now in his heart, he actually regretted it~!
"Senior brother, for the current plan, I'm afraid we can only hang on on the mountain~! Previously, the sect's food reserves were enough for all the disciples to eat for half a year. Now after such a battle, less than half of the disciples are left. Those We have enough food to last more than a year~! As long as the imperial army doesn’t attack for a day, we can live safely~!"
Fei She turned to look at Yin Batian and said with a worried look on his face.
Yin Batian shook his head and said helplessly: "Besides holding on, what else can we do~? The food and grass consumption of this army of 10,000 must be much faster than the dozens of us people~?"
Fei She nodded and said: "That's right~! But senior brother, just in case, we have to let the disciples dig some traps on the mountain road tomorrow. Otherwise, if they really attack, we will only have the Seventh Cultivator Orochi. Rely on me~!"
"Yeah~! What junior brother said makes sense~!"
............................
"Ms. sir~! Mr. sir~! Are you back~?"
After coming out of the Youwuwei barracks, Li Zexuan couldn't be happy when he thought of the situation on Sheling Mountain where Dugu Xin's personal guards tried desperately to cover his retreat. He dragged Dabai and walked back to his home in Yonglefang listlessly. As soon as he entered the door , Han Yuxi, who was lying on the stone table in the front yard waiting for him to come back, quickly came over with a look of joy, took his hand and said.
Li Zexuan felt warm in his heart. No matter how many storms he experienced outside, when he returned to this home, he could get the greatest comfort and support from his wife and other family members. He squeezed the catkins in his hand, and then took Han Yuxi's hand. Holding him in his arms, he closed his eyes tiredly and said:
"Yeah~! Wife, I'm back~!"
Smelling the fragrance of Han Yuxi's hair and feeling her heartbeat, Li Zexuan's chaotic heart suddenly calmed down. Home is really the haven for everyone's soul~!
"Msangong, you...Msangong, what's wrong with you~? Did something happen to you~?"
Being held in the arms of the opposite sex in public, even if this person is her husband-in-law, it is not appropriate to do so~! So Han Yuxi instinctively wanted to break away, but as the saying goes, husband and wife are of the same mind, she soon felt the exhaustion and heartbreak of her husband, so she gently patted Li Zexuan on the back and asked gently.
"Yeah~! Yes~! My husband, I caused many innocent people to die tragically today. Madam, do you hate me~?"
"Huh~? Didn't my husband go to encircle and suppress the Seventh Cultivator Sect these days~? Ah~! Could it be that..."
Han Yuxi remembered that Li Zexuan had been at Snake Spirit Mountain recently. She couldn't help but raise her head and said in shock.
"My lady's guess is correct. The army suffered heavy losses in today's battle at Snake Spirit Mountain. Many brothers died trying to cover the retreat of me and Dugu Xin. My husband, I just came back from the palace~!"
Li Zexuan sighed, then let go of Han Yuxi, held her hand, and continued to walk forward, saying: "The defeated general killed so many brothers. Now I even hate myself~!"
Han Yuxi frowned, with a look of distress on her face. She raised her head and said, "My husband~! Although I am a woman, I also know that victory or defeat is a common thing for military officers. My husband must not be discouraged because of a temporary setback. Cold~! I believe that nothing in this world can trouble my husband~!
As for those soldiers who unfortunately died, I will often go to the temple to burn incense and pray for them. If my husband feels guilty, you can pay more attention to their families when you have time in the future. I believe that their spirits in heaven will also be very happy~! "
Hearing this, Li Zexuan suddenly became enlightened. He smiled with relief and said, "Yeah~! These suggestions are really good~! Now that things have happened, there is no benefit in sighing in vain. It's better to do something like what you said. Remedy~! Madam, you are truly my noble person~!"
Han Yuxi said embarrassedly: "How can I be as good as you said~? My husband is just a bystander and a fan~! Oh~! By the way, my husband, you didn't fight well this time. His Majesty didn't blame you, right~?"
Li Zexuan shook his head and said softly: "That's not true~! The situation of the Seventh Xiu Sect is special. Whoever takes part in this battle will have the same result. Your Majesty is not an unreasonable person, so of course he will not blame me~! But he has lost so many brothers. , even if he doesn’t blame me, I still blame myself~! So I still have to find a way to destroy this Seventh Xiu Sect~!"
Han Yuxi knew that it was difficult for her to persuade Li Zexuan to change his mind on important matters, so she could only force a smile and say: "Then please be careful, my husband. You promised to become a concubine before and you will not take risks yourself~!"
Li Zexuan pointed at his head and smiled: "Of course~! Madam, don't worry, there is not much danger this time. Fighting requires not only fists, but also your head~!"
As he said that, he looked around and asked: "Huh~? Where are dad, mother, Lan'er and the others~? Why don't you see anyone~?"
Han Yuxi smiled and replied: "Dad went to the teahouse to play chess, and mother was invited to the theater by Mrs. Lu Guogong. As for Lan'er, she went to Yunshan with Tiedan yesterday. She said she was helping my husband build an academy. Last night I’m staying at my dad’s place~! I probably won’t be back in the next two days~!”
Li Zexuan nodded and said with a smile: "Well, it's good that they are all well~! In the next three days, my husband will not be at home, and everything at home has been hard work for me~! If my father and mother ask, you can tell them He said that I went to Uncle Niu’s military camp, there was no danger, and told them not to worry~!”
"Hmm~!"
