At this moment, at the northern border, cold winds are blowing, heavy snow is flying, and goose-feather white snow falls on the ground, adding a thick layer of cotton clothes to the entire land. Although it looks very pure, it is also so cold that people shiver. The ice on the soldier's armor was visible to the naked eye, and his hands were red from the cold!
The cold light of the armor flashes, and the mist from the mouth is clear. Everything represents the temperature of the border at this moment. Every time this season comes, it is the most difficult time for border soldiers. Not only do they have to resist the severe cold, but they also have to defend themselves against foreign enemies. It is true that misfortunes never come singly!
Brother and sister Li Hanrui and Li Hanyan rushed to the border camp with a thousand cavalry. Li Hanqi was naturally very happy when he heard that his brother and sister were coming, and hurried out to greet them. The three brothers and sisters were naturally very excited to see them!
Li Hanqi hugged Li Hanrui tightly
"Oh, my brother, you are here! I have been looking forward to it day and night these days! I won't be afraid when you come!"
"Brother praise me!" Li Hanrui said with a smile.
"Brother!" Li Hanyan came over with Ziyuan and Litchi and greeted with a smile.
"Third sister is here, it's been a hard journey!" After Li Hanqi finished speaking, he looked behind Li Hanyan. Li Hanqi thought that his eyesight was not good, so why didn't he see Zhao Xuanyi?
Li Hanyan naturally knew who Li Hanqi was looking for, and her smiling face disappeared instantly
"No need to look for it, he's not here!"
"Oh? My brother-in-law didn't come? This is not his character!" Li Hanqi asked strangely.
"Him? Humph! Jiang Lang's talent is over!" Li Hanyan said with disdain. Li Hanrui glared at Li Hanyan
"Brother, let's talk after we go in!"
"Okay, okay, come into the big tent quickly. It's freezing at the border now!" Li Hanqi hurriedly called his younger brother and sister to enter the Chinese army's tent. After the group sat down, they started chatting over the fire!
Li Hanrui hurriedly explained
"My brother-in-law was sent out by the eldest princess to perform a secret mission a while ago. As a result, he was framed by a villain, tortured, and seriously injured. He is recovering at home now. The capital is too far from the border. I don't want him to be tired from traveling, so I didn't let him. Follow me!"
"I see! Is there nothing serious about my brother-in-law?" Li Hanqi asked with great concern.
"I can't die!" Li Hanyan said angrily. Li Hanqi is waiting for Li Hanyan
"Look at you, you're a grown-up girl, you've been married for so long, why can't you say two sentences?" Li Hanrui asked hurriedly
"Brother, we came all the way with no news. How is the enemy's situation now?"
"You think it's strange. The Tatar and Oara coalition is stationed fifty kilometers away from me. They don't attack or explore. Every day, the news from my scout is always the same. It's just business as usual!" Li Hanrui shook his head.
"Everything is normal but not normal. They won't come to the battlefield to play in the freezing cold, let alone the coalition forces!" Li Hanqi looked at Li Hanyan
"Sister, before you left, didn't your brother-in-law say anything else?"
"Do you need to listen to his nonsense?" Li Hanqi frowned
"Hurry up!" Li Hanyan sighed and turned to look at Zi Yuan
"Aren't you two together every day? Tell me!" After hearing this, Zi Yuan's face instantly turned red. Miss Xindao, how could you say this in front of outsiders?
Ziyuan wished she could find a crack in the ground and crawl in, coughing twice to relieve the embarrassment.
"My uncle did say something!"
"What is it?"
"My uncle said that the enemy troops at the border do not dare to act rashly. The eldest son does not need to worry, as long as he defends the city!" Zi Yuan said slowly.
"Don't dare to move?" Li Hanqi and Li Hanrui looked at each other, wondering what does this mean? What do you mean by not daring to move?
"Could it be that my brother-in-law has figured out the enemy's intentions?" Li Hanqi asked. Ziyuan shook her head
"I don't know about Zi Yuan. My uncle didn't say anything!" Li Hanqi touched his head.
"What does this brother-in-law mean? How does he know that the enemy army dare not move? And he also asked me to only defend but not attack? What does this mean? Could it be that he already has a plan?"
"The devil knows!" Li Hanyan disliked Zhao Xuanyi very much. She didn't say anything, as if he was the smartest in the world, which was very disgusting!
Li Hanqi slapped his thigh
"Anyway, you have just arrived at the border. It has been a hard journey. We brothers and sisters have not seen each other for a long time. Let's have a drink and have a good rest!"
"Okay!" Li Hanrui said with a smile. Inside the capital, Zhao Xuanyi was thinking carefully about something in the hall. There was a sound of footsteps, and Shen Wei came to Zhao Xuanyi's side.
"Young Master, there is something I don't know whether I should tell you or not!"
"speak!"
"Just now... Su Xiaoding came back to report that he encountered a strange thing on the road. Li Wenzhou seems to have left for the city?" Shen Wei said.
"Who? Li Wenzhou left the capital?" Zhao Xuanyi asked in surprise.
"That's right! Just now, I heard that they were leaving in a carriage. It seemed like they were planning to go on a long journey!" Zhao Xuanyi sneered when he heard this.
"This chameleon wanders around the capital every day when there is no war. When something happens to our love, he is the first to run away! This is to avoid disaster!"
"It's a bit unreasonable!" Zhao Xuanyi waved his hand.
"I'm just a wallflower, so why should I care? It's not like some people who wanted to leave with others back then!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he looked at Du Xinyu who was sitting beside him eating an apple!
Du Xinyu glared at Zhao Xuanyi
"Are you done? Believe it or not, I'm still leaving now?"
"I was wrong, I was wrong! Stop making trouble!" Zhao Xuanyi was joking! Shen Wei also laughed, thinking that he couldn't drive away even if he wanted to!
"Brother Shen, let Wang Yunlong and Wang Yunchuan prepare and mobilize five thousand Qilin Guards. This time we are going to play big and wear all the good things!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
When Shen Wei heard this, he felt a little uneasy
"Young Master, do you still want to go there in person now that you are in this body?"
"Hey, it's not okay if I don't invite you to go in person! I'll bring the flying feathers all over the sky and the crossbow machine with me!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
When Shen Wei heard this, his eyes widened. Why haven't these two things, Rainfall and Crossbow, been used since they were made?
It seems that Zhao Xuanyi is really planning to play big this time!
"Crossbow...how many are ready?" Shen Wei asked.
"How many units have we built in total?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"More than four hundred!"
"Prepare three hundred units, and then prepare three hundred taels of chariots. Just like what I designed at the time, as long as you put the crossbow on the chariot, it will become a mobile fortress! Bring all the arrows from the Qilin Camp! "
"All of them?" Shen Wei asked in surprise, there were tens of thousands of them!
"Yes, all of them! There are more than 20,000 people left to guard the capital. I can take 5,000 people with me, which is enough!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"Yes! I...I'll get ready right now!" Although Shen Wei was surprised on the surface, he was still very excited in his heart. He hadn't encountered such a battle for a long time!
All the blood in my body is boiling! Du Xinyu put down the apple and came to Zhao Xuanyi, looking at Zhao Xuanyi with strange eyes.
"Have you been planning the battle this whole time?"
"Do you think I look like a fool?" Zhao Xuanyi hugged Du Xinyu's waist and said.
"But why don't you go to the battlefield with your wife?"
"What do you think?" Zhao Xuanyi picked up Du Xinyu, put him on his lap, lowered his head and kissed Du Xinyu's cheek!
Du Xinyu thought carefully for a few seconds and suddenly thought of a possibility
"You had no intention of going to the northern border, so you didn't go with her!" Zhao Xuanyi was amazed in his heart, with an appreciative smile on his face.
"My baby is so smart! Only then can I guess! Give you a kiss!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he kissed Du Xinyu on the lips
"Yeah! The apples are so sweet!" Du Xinyu looked at Zhao Xuanyi and smiled.
"You did it on purpose, right?"
"I can not understand what you say!"
"Why did you lie to your wife that there was nothing you could do? Send her to the border?" Du Xinyu asked with a smile, Zhao Xuanyi smiled and said nothing, Du Xinyu then said
"I will accompany you to the battlefield!"
"No!" Zhao Xuanyi immediately refused.
"It's not Brain Bending this time. I'm only 60% sure. Even if I can't win, I can still come back. I don't dare to take you to such a dangerous place. What if you are caught? You are so beautiful. How can you end up there? In the hands of a bunch of beasts, you might as well let me die!" After Zhao Xuanyi said that, he kissed Du Xinyu on the cheek, and then gently bit Du Xinyu's ear!
Du Xinyu's face is red
"But I don't trust you if you go alone!"
"What are you worried about? I have the protection of the Qilin Guards. You can wait at home peacefully for me to come back. You are not allowed to go out! You are not allowed to see outsiders! If Li Wenzhou returns to Beijing after I leave, I will let the Qilin Guards guard the door. Li Wenzhou dares Come and break his legs!" Zhao Xuanyi said fiercely.
"Domineering!" Du Xinyu said with a smile.
"Xinyu, would you like to sleep in my room tonight?" Zhao Xuanyi asked softly. Du Xinyu lowered his head shyly
"don't want!"
"You are so bad. You have refused to sleep with me since you came back. What do you want?"
"You can't blame me for this. Ziyuan has been in your room all the time, as if she would eat me when I entered. I don't dare to go!"
"Isn't she gone now?" Zhao Xuanyi held Du Xinyu in his arms and kissed her gently.
"People are worried about your health!"
"I'm fine! Really!"
"Stop making trouble! I'm going to see Liu Xiawan!" Du Xinyu pushed Zhao Xuanyi away and ran out of the hall with a smile. Zhao Xuanyi sighed, and the duck flew away again!
Then Zhao Xuanyi started to pick up the pen and paper again and kept writing and drawing on the paper. His five thousand Qilin Guards and the fifteen thousand people from Baijun Hall seemed to be enough. However, Zhao Xuanyi knew that the people from Baijun Hall were nothing more than just With great momentum, they really may not be able to win this kind of war!
And now there is the most important thing, which must be brought with you! Zhao Xuanyi wrote five characters on the paper and then threw the pen aside!
In remote areas, it is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is charming. Although it is already early winter, the surrounding exotic flowers and plants are still strong. There are many children playing on the mountain paths, and some farmers are working. The pastoral scenery is very beautiful. It is simple and beautiful!
In a house on the east side of the village, Bai Zhi handed a letter to Cao Yu
"That guy gave this to you! You said he was afraid that I would not convey the message accurately. This is double insurance. I think he just doesn't believe me!" Cao Yu smiled. He took the letter and opened it and looked at it carefully. He saw clearly that it was written on it. It was clear about the number of people, the planned route, the arrival location, and even feared that Cao Yu would get lost, Zhao Xuanyi even gave him a map!
Cao Yu burst out laughing after reading it
"This is such a high-level treatment, even a map was sent to me! I'm really afraid that I can't find it!"
"Senior brother, what do you think of his plan?" Bai Zhi asked.
"Not bad! It's a good battle plan!"
"I know that's true, but senior brother, this is a war. Are you sure we want to participate?" Cao Yu put away the map and looked at Bai Zhi.
"Junior sister, you know, I have been waiting for a battle to serve the country. It can not only defend the country, but also allow our Baijun Hall to regain its honor. Cooperating with Zhao Xuanyi is the most secure cooperation in my opinion!" Bai Zhi listened. After that, he nodded.
"It all depends on senior brother. When should we start taking action?"
"Right now! Send the order immediately and gather all the people we can find within two days. We will set off on the third day. We may not have enough horses, so we have to walk with our legs. We must reach the designated place within the scheduled time! "Cao Yu said.
"Yes!" Cao Yu slowly stood up, his eyes exuding infinite fighting spirit.
"In this battle, our Baijuntang must win. This opportunity may not come again, Zhao Xuanyi! I'm all betting on you!" Bai Zhi saw Cao Yu's fighting spirit and felt very sad. I am happy, I haven't seen such a high-spirited senior brother for a long time, but Bai Zhi also has her own worries, that is, the military strength. Although there are tens of thousands of people in Baijun Hall, facing hundreds of thousands of enemy troops, these numbers are simply rare!
Time passed by, and the sky turned from day to night. Zhao Xuanyi sat alone in the room, constantly thinking and calculating in his mind. The enemy this time was extraordinary. He could not underestimate him if he could mobilize so many people. I can let go and fight without fear.
But Ye Yuanzhi and King Yong'an are not particularly worried. If they can leave them alone, they can lead all the Qilin Guards to level the border!
These old immortals! 【Dong dong dong! 】There was a knock on the door
"What's the matter?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"Young Master, the eldest princess is already here! The carriage is at the back door!" Shen Wei said. When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he stood up quickly and walked out of the room and looked at Shen Wei
"Why don't you invite me in?"
"Nan Zhu directly asked you to come over, but the eldest princess doesn't seem to be coming in!" Shen Wei said. Zhao Xuanyi nodded
"Got it!" After Zhao Xuanyi said that, he quickly walked to the backyard. Zhu Yuejun was here, how dare he neglect it?
After walking out of the back door, he saw Zhu Yuejun's white jade carriage parked aside. Zhao Xuanyi took a look and saw that all four maids were here!
After seeing Nanzhu, Nanzhu's eyes instantly looked away, as if avoiding Zhao Xuanyi's gaze. Zhao Xuanyi's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself, Sister, don't be like this?
I don’t dare to have anything to do with you now, I’m afraid my sweetheart won’t agree. Thank you very much for your affection, I will have to live up to it!
Zhao Xuanyi got on the carriage directly, opened the curtain and walked in. He saw Zhu Yuejun wearing a snow-white leather jacket with a moon-white dress underneath. After seeing Zhao Xuanyi, he poured a cup of hot tea and put it on the small table.
"Sit down quickly, isn't it cold?" Zhao Xuanyi nodded. He usually sat on this side of the table. After all, monarchs and ministers are different, but today Zhao Xuanyi walked directly across the table, sat next to Zhu Yuejun, and hugged Zhu Yuejun.
"Isn't that right? It's very cold outside. I'm freezing to death. Please give me a warm drink!" Two red clouds suddenly appeared on Zhu Yuejun's face, and she kept pushing Zhao Xuanyi with her little hands.
"Stop making trouble! Let go! What are you doing?" Zhao Xuanyi couldn't help but didn't let go. Instead, he pressed closer. He opened the leather jacket and got in. The two of them were covered with the same leather jacket.
"Who told you not to enter the house? It's so warm inside but you still want to stay outside. I'm cold and there's nothing you can do about it? Let's keep warm together!" Zhao Xuanyi looked like a rogue in his clothes. He hugged Zhu Yuejun's waist with both hands and refused to let go!
