Chapter 421 The entire army was destroyed

Author: Leng Qingshan

Mu Xian had previously predicted that he would set off the day after tomorrow at the latest, but he did not expect that the battle was urgent. That night, several battle reports were sent back from the front. Xue Xian's vanguard army was approaching Fufeng, and Yu Wenye was well prepared.

At noon the next day, they officially set off.

Yu Wenyuan and Yu Wensu stood at the door and saw each other off in person.

When Yu Wenye turned over and sat on the horse, Yu Wenzhen had already walked to him and looked up at him: "Fengchen, although I was worried about your expedition this time, now that you are about to set off, I won't worry about you anymore.

Speaking of other things, I just hope you can win this time."

Yu Wenye said: "Thank you very much, brother."

Yu Wenzuo said again: "Also, take care of yourself."

"..."

Yu Wenye's eyes flickered and he still smiled and said: "Yes."

After saying these words, Yu Wenzhen glanced at his side again - this trip was a march, and naturally there was no comfortable thing like a carriage. Shang Ruyi was wearing a neat and tight-fitting clothes and was riding on horseback with Yu Wenye.

At the same time, her hair was tied up high, without any hairpins, and no makeup was applied, but it actually added to her sassy look.

There seemed to be a ripple in those blue-grey eyes, but Yuwen Sui didn't say anything more, only nodded slightly, and Shang Ruyi only nodded.

Yu Wenzu then backed away.

At this time, Yu Wenyuan, who had been standing on the steps with his hands behind his back, slowly walked down, walked to the side of the horse, and looked at Yu Wenye solemnly.

Although he knew what his son was capable of, he was facing Xue Xian after all. As a father, he still felt a little uneasy and worried in his eyes, but he did not express it in his words. He only looked at Xue Xian, who was riding on the horse.

Jia Jia, the heroic second son, then said: "Xue Xian is brave and good at planning. He is not a person who only knows how to fight tough battles. You must keep this in mind when you send troops this time."

Yu Wenye said seriously: "Yes!"

Yu Wenyuan nodded, took a step back and stood back on the steps, saying nothing more.

At this time, Shang Ruyi felt his body sink. When he looked down, it was Tu Sheer standing in front of the horse with red eyes, holding her by the corner of her clothes with a look of reluctance on her face, muttering: "Miss..."

Shang Ruyi leaned down and said softly: "Didn't I make it clear to you last night? Why are you still like this?"

"..."

"We are sending out troops today, so you can't cry or cry. It's unlucky."

When he heard this, although he felt sad and reluctant to leave, Tusheer swallowed back his tears and looked back at Wuxue who was following Shang Ruyi. There were still some scars on his face and he looked very haggard.

——Last night, when Shang Ruyi told her about his arrangement, Tu Sheer was so anxious that he almost forgot the rules of master and servant and started arguing with her. In the end, Shang Ruyi used the master's money to convince her, but she couldn't help it.

, she could only make Shang Ruyi promise again and again that she would not let Wuxue plot against her again. She also went to find Mu Xian herself and asked him to help guard against Wuxue in the army, so she reluctantly relented.

Even so, she still glared at Wuxue fiercely, and then whispered: "Miss, you must take good care of yourself, and don't let her scheme against you again. This slave will also-"

Shang Ruyi glanced at her.

Tu Sheer could only swallow the next words, and Wuxue also glanced at her at this time, as if he knew what she was guarding against, so he didn't say much and just lowered his head silently.

At this time, the time to set off has arrived.

Yu Wenye looked around and saw that all the soldiers accompanying him were lined up neatly. He raised his hands high and raised his hand. Suddenly the whole team started to move forward. Tu Sheer was dragged back to the door by Chang Wan.

, could only reluctantly watch the team leave the Duke's Mansion and disappear under the blazing sun.

This trip lasted two days.

Because of the intense fighting ahead, they marched quickly, with only two short breaks. On the second night, Yu Wenye simply marched all night and continued to advance under the cover of darkness.

Shang Ruyi knew that he planned to reach Fufeng before dawn.

However, walking like this for two days took a lot of physical exertion on them. Even if there was no scorching sun exposure at night, when they held the torch high to light the way forward, the flames burned the people around them, especially those wearing heavy armor.

He was so hot that he was sweating profusely. Shang Ruyi was worried that he would suffer from heatstroke, so he whispered a few instructions to Mu Xian. Mu Xian immediately picked up the water bag and handed it to Yuwen Ye.

When he picked it up, he found that his water bag was empty.

Yu Wenye has been hot and sweaty since he was a child, especially as a martial arts practitioner. In summer, the sweat on his body is like a flowing river. After a day of training in the army, his clothes will be soaked with sweat and water can be squeezed out. Such a person is certainly

Although he is strong, he is prone to heat stroke in summer, and it is even more troublesome if he is on the march.

Therefore, Mu Xian hesitated to persuade him to stop and take a rest and drink some water.

At this moment, Yu Wenye suddenly raised his hand: "Stop!"

Upon hearing his order, the troops that were marching at full speed immediately stopped. Yu Wenye gave the order: "Rest where you are."

After walking all day, everyone was indeed a little tired. After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They dismounted one after another and sat down on the ground. Everyone took out water and dry food and started eating in large gulps.

Shang Ruyi also got off the horse.

Although she was barely good at riding and shooting, the two days of jolting on horseback had left her with severe back pain, and her inner thighs were so worn that they were almost torn. As soon as she landed on the ground, her feet felt weak and she almost fell.

She hurriedly grasped the reins, barely holding herself steady.

When I turned around again, I saw Yu Wenye on the side also jumped off the back of the tall, black horse, holding the reins with one hand, and taking a handkerchief from the side to wipe the sweat on his forehead and neck. He saw

She almost fell down, but he didn't come to help her.

Shang Ruyi also raised his head and met his eyes calmly.

Yu Wenye seemed to smile.

However, the two of them had no time to say anything. Several people had gathered around Yu Wenye. One of them was thin and well-dressed. He was obviously not a young man dressed as a sergeant. He was Yin Changyue, the supervisor who accompanied the expedition, and the other was tall and thin.

A strong, but not tall, middle-aged man wearing armor was Song Yu, the military commander appointed by the imperial court.

Because he suffered losses from the supervisor Kou Yunliang when he was in Xingluocang, Shang Ruyi didn't have a good impression of these eunuch supervisors sent by the palace. However, this Yin Changyue followed them on horseback for two days, and he was not like the previous one.

Kou Yunliang was just as pretentious and asked calmly: "General, where is this place?"

Yu Wenye turned around and looked at him and said: "There should be a river near here. Let's take a break here and give everyone some time to relax and eat."

"river?"

Yin Changyue was stunned for a moment, then turned to look around. It was pitch black nearby, and he couldn't tell where there were mountains or rivers. Yu Wenye didn't have a map in his hand, how could he know?

But at this moment, a gurgling sound of water came from the wind.

There is actually a river.

Yu Wenye said: "This should be the Xiaolin River, a tributary of the Fufeng section of the Weishui River."

"..."

"Less than twenty miles further, you can reach Fufeng."

Yin Changyue said: "But why are you eating at this time?"

Song Yu on the other side also frowned and said: "Yes, since this place is only twenty miles away from Fufeng, if we hurry up, it will only take half a night. Why not wait until we get to Fufeng to have breakfast?"

Yu Wenye glanced at them.

Although there were soldiers nearby holding torches for illumination, his pupils actually appeared darker under the firelight.

He said: "We have not received any more battle reports along the way."

"Um?"

Yin Changyue and Song Yu were both stunned for a moment and looked at each other.

What they asked was why the troops were suspended at this time, and why did the general of the auxiliary country talk about the battle report?

Shang Ruyi also walked over and was slightly startled when she heard these words. After thinking about it again, she understood a little bit. She said softly: "The previous battle reports were very urgent, saying that Xue Xian had approached Fufeng, but there were no more after that.

The battle report came in. It’s possible that there’s already a war on Fufeng’s side.”

Upon hearing her words, Yin Changyue gasped.

The war has already started, so there is no time to send the battle report.

Then - I'm afraid the battle will be very fierce, even tragic!

Yu Wenye looked at Shang Ruyi and nodded slightly, but said in a very calm tone: "I guess so, so I have been marching in a hurry today, but now, we have reached our limit."

"..."

"When our group of troops goes over, if they encounter a war, they must immediately join the fight. But after walking for a day, the soldiers have nothing to gain, and the soldiers have no strength, so why fight? At that time, not only will it not be a help, but it may become a drag."

"..."

"So, I want everyone to eat here first before leaving, and be ready for war at any time."

Yin Changyue nodded: "So that's it."

Yu Wenye said: "Master Supervisor and Chief Supervisor, you all should go have something to eat and have a rest."

The two of them said nothing more and went to eat separately.

Shang Ruyi then walked to him again and looked at his sweating face through the surrounding firelight. A piece of handkerchief was completely wet, but the sweat had not been wiped off. She took the handkerchief from his hand.

He took another piece from his arms and handed it to him.

Yu Wenye glanced at her and only smiled faintly.

At this time, Wuxue also came over, took the sweaty handkerchief from Shang Ruyi's hand, and said softly: "Slave, take it to the river and wash it."

Shang Ruyi nodded, then turned and left.

Yu Wenye looked at her back, then turned to look at Shang Ruyi, his eyes flickering as if he was asking something, but he didn't make a sound. Shang Ruyi understood what he meant and said softly: "I've been staring at her all the way.

Hers, don't worry, she didn't do anything unusual."

Yu Wenye nodded.

The handkerchief just now had wiped a lot of sweat from his head and face. He took Shang Ruyi's handkerchief and only wiped his forehead before putting it away.

Shang Ruyi said softly: "Drink some water. Where is your water bag?"

Yu Wenye looked back and saw that the water bag on his horse had disappeared. Just as he was about to ask, he saw Mu Xian running over from the side in a hurry, holding his water bag in his hand, and said: "General, I just

Go to the river to get some water."

Yu Wenye took it and took a sip.

After being thirsty for a long time, this sip of water seemed like a life-saving elixir. It made him feel a lot more energetic. When he looked up at the night ahead, his eyes became more solemn.

Just now, Shang Ruyi guessed that Fufeng had already started a war, so there was no battle report. This was indeed his previous guess.

But, this may be the best case scenario.

What he is really worried about is——

At this moment, Nie Zhan, who was standing aside and adjusting the reins, suddenly raised his head and looked into the night ahead: "Someone is coming!"

When everyone heard this, they all became nervous.

Yu Wenye also frowned, stuffed the lid of the water bag that he had only taken a sip from, and handed it to Mu Xian. Then he raised his head and looked forward with a burning look, but heard Mu Xian say again: "There is only one horseman coming.

, it should not be the enemy."

Everyone looked at him in surprise.

Although the men and horses recovered from Wanggang Village were following this time, the rest of the army were all from the imperial court. They did not know what this man was and just thought he was talking nonsense. Some people even whispered: "Where did the horse and the horse come from?

"

"That's right, I can only hear the wind."

"Who is this person? Why are you listening to his nonsense?"

Listening to these people's contemptuous words, the good boy was unconvinced and immediately said: "Brother Nie has a very good ear. When he says someone is coming, someone is coming!"

Everyone still had contempt for Nie Chong, but when they saw that there was such a child in the team and he was still following the general of the auxiliary country, they suddenly became even more dissatisfied.

Whispering: "What's going on when we send troops this time? It's just a matter of bringing women, but we also bring children?"

"Now that women and children can join the war, what do you want us men to do?"

"If you ask me, it would be strange to win this battle."

"Yes, that's Xue Xian..."

These people's chatter became increasingly depressing in the night. Shang Ruyi also frowned when he heard it, but when he looked at Yu Wenye, he didn't seem angry, and he didn't even seem to hear it.

The words of those people.

Just look straight ahead.

Just when everyone was making a fuss, there was actually a sound of horse hooves coming from the front.

This time, everyone's voices were suppressed.

Although Nie Chong said that there was only one man and horse, he still had to be careful on the march. Mu Xian immediately went forward with one man and one man, holding the torch high. After a while, he saw a man and horse rushing over, and as soon as he saw

The people and horses here were also startled. When they tightened their reins, the horses under them neighed, which immediately disturbed the whole night.

Mu Xian immediately said: "The general of the auxiliary country is here! Who is coming?"

When the man heard this, he was so excited that he almost fell off his horse. He quickly grabbed the reins, dismounted, and hurried over: "General!"

Under the firelight, the yellow-brown soft armor on the man's body suddenly came into view. He was actually a soldier of Fufeng!

Yu Wenye walked forward calmly, looking at the soldier covered in dust and with a wounded face, he said in a deep voice: "What's going on?"
