The sky was gray and gloomy for some reason. The drizzle kept falling, adding to the melancholy of farewell. The south wind blew fiercely, as if urging everyone to go north...
"Father, you must be safe and sound!" Xia Chengcan stood outside the camp for two hours, with only this thought in his mind. Twelve thousand men stood more than ten feet away from him, staring northward without saying a word. This was the first time they watched the god in their hearts go on an expedition alone.
Qiu Tingtai exhaled heavily, took a few steps forward, approached Xia Chengcan and reported, "Your Majesty, please go back to camp, the rain is getting heavier." It had been half a day since Xia Muyang and his party set out, and they had already gone far. There was no use in standing here. This is the simplest truth. He understands it, and so does everyone.
Xia Chengcan nodded slightly, turned his head and said to the back: "You should all go back to your respective camps." After saying this, he walked towards the central army tent. That was Xia Muyang's commanding camp, and he was now in charge.
Everyone turned around and walked less than a hundred steps when the sound of a trumpet suddenly sounded and they stopped in a hurry. Xia Chengcan quickly walked out of the central military tent when he saw a sentry jumping off his horse and kneeling in front of him to report: "Your Majesty, there is a group of light cavalry coming from four or five miles ahead. There are hundreds of people!"
Xia Chengcan's heart tightened and he felt vaguely uneasy.
After half a cup of tea, this team of light cavalry finally approached the military camp. Only then did everyone see their uniforms clearly: they were actually the Shenshao Camp, the emperor's personal army.
"Kick! Kick! Kick! Kick!"... "Hush! Hurry!" After a sound of horse hooves, there was another sound of reining in the horse, and the team of light cavalry dismounted outside the camp. The leader of the team was a lean man wearing a thousand-man official robe. He took the badge from his waist to identify himself, and then addressed the guards outside the camp and said: "I am Ling Quanyi, the thousand-man captain of the Shenshao camp, and I have been ordered to pick up His Royal Highness King Zhi. Go back to the capital!"
When the guards saw the yellow golden order in his hand, they already moved away. One of them walked quickly towards the direction of the central military tent, apparently to make a report.
... ...
On the official road south of Pingzhou City, a group of light cavalry looked at the road ahead and dismounted one after another: in front of them, several huge rocks weighing more than 1,000 kilograms lay in the middle of the post road, blocking the way.
"Master Ma, this is not good! Why are there so many roadblocks on this road?" A man with a fat face and chin said to the leader of the team, the elder Hawkeye. Along the way, they have encountered road obstacles four times in succession. Either the bridge was cut off, the road was flooded, or poisonous bees occupied the road. Even the most stupid person can guess that someone has done this deliberately.
The elder Eagle Eye did not answer, but shouted coldly: "Shenshao Camp, remove the obstacles!"
This group of troops was the Thousand Shenshou Camp generals sent by Emperor Yonghua to Pingzhou. They were supposed to arrive at Pingshangyuan early this morning, but due to delays along the way, they were still on the road and were still more than three hundred miles away from Pingshangyuan. No matter how quickly they arrived, they would have to arrive at Shenyou.
Ma Qian frowned and thought unsteadily: "It turns out that someone wants to harm His Highness King Yi. I must not miss this important event! Otherwise, it would not be a pity to lose Wusha, and even my property and life may not be saved." "
The regular training in the Shenshao Camp is extremely strict, and every soldier is a warrior who can be selected from a hundred. These one thousand people were not only brave individually, but also cooperated with each other in an extremely tacit understanding. They dug trenches, cut down trees, supported poles, and raised poles, and went about their business without saying a word.
"Boom!" A quarter of an hour later, a huge boulder was finally pushed to the side of the road. Ma Qian clenched his right fists and shouted, "Faster!"
These thousand people were all his brothers who had followed him for many years. They could hear the obvious sense of urgency in his words, and they all went crazy for a while. The man with a fat face and cheeks stood in front of the big stone, waved his arms, and shouted: "Everyone gather around and push this stone aside!" After saying that, he pressed his hands on the boulder weighing several thousand kilograms and pressed his feet hard against it. pushing. More than a dozen people gathered around, shouting and pushing the boulder.
"Ah~~~"
"Ah~~~"
"Boom!" The stone finally rolled forward. A gap of more than a foot wide was exposed between the stones.
"Push forward!" The fat-faced man with cheeks didn't dare to slack off and shouted loudly. His hands were already shaking a little, so he used his shoulders to support them.
"Harder! Push it up!"
"Ah~~~Brothers, push hard!"
... ...
"Boom~~~" The big stone finally rolled forward again, revealing a five or six-foot-wide gap between the stones.
Ma Qian's right face was filled with joy, he got on his horse and shouted: "Don't pay attention to anything else, get on your horse and go straight to Pingshangyuan!" Before he finished speaking, he drove his horse to the front. A thousand cavalry galloped towards Pingshan.
"Huh~, Ju Zheng, King Yi, King Jaw, and King Zhi haven't come back, so I can't feel at peace in my heart." Emperor Yonghua had been restless these past few days, and he was restless and uncontrollable. At this time, he caressed the Qinzheng Hall The stone fence in front of me made me feel annoyed and anxious.
Ni Juzheng rarely saw him like this. He took two steps forward and comforted softly: "Your Majesty, please be more at ease. The distance of the Shenshao Camp is the best in the world. It is not a problem to travel seven hundred miles a day. These few days Ripien will come back with news."
Emperor Yonghua raised his head and sighed, and said: "Sigh... just ask Zhanwei to come over. Last time he gave me a 'Ningxin Pill', and I slept soundly for a few days."
"Yes!" Ni Juzheng accepted the order and was about to retreat when he was suddenly stopped by Emperor Yonghua, "Juzheng, come back!"
"Your Majesty, what else do you want me to do?" he asked, bowing down.
Emperor Yonghua stretched out his hand and shook it. He seemed to be about to say something but suddenly stopped. After a while, he said: "That's all, I will announce that Hu Xiu'an will come to see me later." He originally wanted to announce that Xia Muyan had entered the palace, but then he remembered that night at the Prince's Mansion. Qingxuan and King Duan held back their admonitions and instead summoned Hu Xiu'an to monitor him.
Ni Juzheng responded "Yes" and meandered back.
... ...
Since Mei Yuanchen came back, there has been an extra sight in Prince Jaw's Mansion.
"Young Master Yuanchen's progress is really rare in the world. Less than two years ago, he was still a beginner in martial arts, and he was far inferior to an ordinary soldier. I didn't expect that today, he would have such superb martial arts. Even I, too I'm so sorry!" Qing Ji stood aside and watched Mei Yuanchen practicing martial arts, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, Mr. Yuanchen is indeed a rare martial arts wizard." Haechi agreed from the side.
The two of them kept staring at Mei Yuanchen in the courtyard and did not see the worry in Xia Chengxuan's eyes. "I don't know if my father has received my summons. According to their schedule, they should arrive in the next day or two. Grandpa Chu and the others probably arrived in Pingzhou early, but I don't know if the matter has been completed." He He lowered his head and thought, not hearing a word of the conversation between the two.
... ...
"Shenshao Camp? Are the people from the Shenshao Camp here to pick up my father?" Xia Chengcan suddenly stood up and asked sharply.
The sentry's legs and feet were so frightened that he trembled and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty! They have just arrived outside the camp and are on their way here."
Xia Chengcan's face turned pale, his eyesight went dark, he stumbled and almost fell down, "Father...Father..." The Shenshao camp came, and what was said in the letter was naturally false. He already knew that Xia Mu Yang is heading towards the enemy trap.
"Quick, beat the drums and assemble!" Xia Chengcan ordered in a trembling voice. When the guards around him saw this, two people stepped forward to support him, while the other two hurriedly went down to give orders to beat the drums.
The personal guards helped him sit down on his seat, and Ling Quanyi walked outside the Chinese army's tent. The guard reported: "Your Majesty, Lord Ying Ling of the Divine Sentinel has arrived!"
"Invite him in!" Xia Chengcan ordered softly.
Ling Quanyi strode forward and reported: "Your Majesty, Ling Quanyi, is here to see Prince Zhi! Your Majesty has been ordered to take His Highness Prince Zhi back to the capital. I wonder where His Highness Prince Zhi is now? Your Majesty has an order, no delay, and we will do it as soon as we see the order!"
Xia Chengcan did not answer, but asked softly: "Ling Qianfu, where did you come from?"
"Hui Shizi, Xiaguan and his entourage came from Fanxi, Cangsheng, and Binan official roads." Ling Quanyi bowed and held his hand in reply.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!" The sound of drumming came from outside the tent. Xia Chengcan tried his best to steady his mind, got up from his seat and walked out. Ling Quanyi on the side felt something was wrong when he heard the sound of the drums. When he saw that Xia Chengcan left him and left, he felt even more confused and didn't know what to do.
When orders are enforced and prohibited, the drum is an ironclad order. The generals and soldiers from all the battalions came upon hearing the sound and quickly lined up in front of the tent.
Xia Chengcan held the sword in his hand, stood in front of the queue, and shouted loudly: "Follow me to break camp!"
