His highness's Allure - Chap 178
Usually, the new recruits who went to the battlefield for the first time were scared to cry and fainted. Yue Nu was shaking like a sieve while holding the bow, but her mood was still calm.
He tremblingly exposed his head from the edge of the city wall, and looked at the dark barbarian army on the opposite side.
The arrows of “咻咻咻” suddenly flew in overwhelmingly, and someone on the city wall began to shout, “The barbarians are attacking! The whole line of defense!”
All the soldiers around climbed out, lying on the hole in the high wall, the bow and arrows went out, and the feathered arrows followed and shot towards the opposite side.
Yuenu followed suit, shooting the arrows quickly and urgently. The first two were too nervous to shoot down, but each of the eight behind them shot down an enemy.
The ten arrows were quickly used up. Yue Nu bent down and wanted to ask the soldier next to him to borrow one. The soldier held his ten arrows and didn’t dare to show his head.
Before Yue Nu could say anything, the soldier in front of him was shot through the skull by an arrow flying across the sky, and the hot blood mixed with his brain splashed Yue Nu’s face.
Yue Nu’s lips trembled, and she froze in place all of a sudden, the bow in her hand tightened.
He closed the soldier’s eyes, then gritted his teeth, took the arrow from his hand, turned and ran to the other side, and continued to shoot hard towards the outside of the city wall.
After the arrows were shot, they continued to run to other corpses to draw arrows. The blood was seen too much, and people became numb.
During that whole day, Yue Nu didn’t know how many arrows he shot, and when the sky darkened, the enemy finally stopped attacking.
The people on the city wall were temporarily able to breathe, and the only remaining soldiers supported each other and walked down the city wall.
After getting off the city wall, one person handed out a steamed bun and a bowl of porridge, and devoured it like that.
Yue Nu was also eating in the shadow next to her. She was hungry to the limit, and she raised her bow all day. Now her arms are still sore and trembling.
Before the meal was finished, a lieutenant general came over and called a few people to leave, including Yuenu.
These people were all outstanding performers during the day, and were selected to form a raid team. Tonight’s task was to sneak out of the tunnel in the city wall, sneak behind the barbarian barracks, and burn their food and grass warehouses.
The flow rocket arrow has been prepared for them, just need to ignite the shooting at the time.
The raid mission was urgent and dangerous. Several soldiers had a dignified and righteous look on their faces.
“Yes! Guaranteed to complete!”
Only Yue Nu still lowered her head, thinking that she was not afraid, it was a lie, what if she really couldn’t come back, what if she never saw the general again in the future.
?
The vice general pointed at Yuenu, “You, raise your head, don’t you want to go!”
The eyes of the people around looked over, and Yue Nu nervously tightened her cuffs.
“Are you trying to disobey the military order? Raise your head!”
Seeing that the lieutenant was angry, he wanted to come over and teach Yue Nu personally.
Yue Nu gritted her teeth and slowly raised her head.
Several other people were extremely surprised. It was that little handyman. How could he come to the front line?
The lieutenant didn’t expect it to be him, and stared at him for a long while, before finally choking out a sentence.
“Send him back to the barracks!”
Someone wanted to come over and take Yuenu away.
Yue Nu was a little excited, “Lieutenant General, I, I can’t go back. I can participate in tonight’s raid, just please don’t let me go back, okay”
As long as the war does not end, the general will not be able to recover from his wounds, so he cannot go back.
“Bullshit! The battlefield is not child’s play, you are not trained to participate in such a dangerous operation, you must go back!”
Yuenu held the bow behind his back, his arm was already being grabbed, and he said loudly, “But lieutenant general, my archery skills are better than theirs! I can guarantee that one arrow will be able to shoot the enemy’s grain depot! ”
As soon as these words came out, the soldier who was holding Yuenu’s arm suddenly let go.
This is the truth.
In the end, Yuenu followed the raiding team out of the city from the secret road and headed towards the rear camp of the barbarian army.
In the dead of night, a huge fire broke out from behind the barbarian barracks, and everyone on the wall of the Celestial Dynasty cheered.
The raid appeared to be a success, and the fire took a full hour to be put out.
However, none of the raiders came back.
At the military camp at this time, Zhao Litang finally woke up, and Shen Huan almost cried with joy.
Wu Quan happily rushed into the barracks and reported that he had burned the enemy’s forage.
Hearing this, Zhao Litang sat up from the bed with a very serious expression, “Who made the decision on this matter, and how are the casualties?”
Wu Quan’s smile froze on his face, and some hesitantly did not know how to speak.
“General, this matter was decided jointly by several of us. There were ten casualties and none of them responded.”
Zhao Litang said nothing, the wound on his shoulder was still aching, and after a while he said to Wu Quan, “Okay, you go out first.
Wu Quan didn’t leave, lowered his head, “General, there is one more thing about the raid team, there is one person there.”
Qi Changyi came to the palace every day and stayed in the palace where the emperor lived for half a day.
The emperor’s condition has not improved, but fortunately, with the company of the little man, the emperor is in a good mood every day.
“Father, do you know what happened next?”
Qi Changyi blinked a pair of big eyes and looked at the emperor.
The emperor frowned in embarrassment, “I can’t guess it, Yi’er tell my father.”
Qi Changyi rolled his eyes and said, “Afterwards, they chased away the bad guys and lived happily together, isn’t it great?”
The emperor also smiled lovingly, touched Qi Changyi’s hair, and nodded, “Okay, very good.”
After speaking, he coughed again, and the old **** on the side quickly handed over the medicine.
“Isn’t it hard for the royal father that Yi’er will not bother the royal father anymore, let the royal father have a good rest, and Yi’er will come to see the royal father tomorrow.”
The emperor lay back on the bed with a pale face, and Qi Changyi walked out of the bedroom with his small head lowered.
After the people left, the old **** said in a low voice, “Your Majesty, are you really going to do that? But I looked at His Royal Highness, it really is.”
“Yi’er is very good. Besides, Pei Aiqing is here.”
The old **** didn’t say much and nodded.
As soon as Qi Changyi walked out of the gate of the bedroom, someone walked over to him and took his hand naturally.
“What’s wrong?” Pei Zheng pinched his drooping little face, his fingertips greasy.
Qi Changyi didn’t speak, just looked up at him, the end of his eyes drooping pitifully.
Pei Zheng stopped and pulled the man behind a red pillar, “Worried?”
Qi Changyi pouted and nodded, “Brother Pei, the emperor’s health is getting worse and worse, I, I can’t help him”
Pei Zheng touched the corner of his lips, “You have helped a lot. What you make him happy every day is the greatest help, you know?”
“But”
“Okay, don’t blame yourself.”
Pei Zheng took the man into his arms and rubbed his hand, sliding his hands down on his thin waist.
He hasn’t taken any further action, at most, he just hugged and kissed him twice. Pei Zheng didn’t want to force him, especially at this time, if he did something brutish, he always felt like taking advantage of the fire.
There were footsteps suddenly behind him, Qi Changyi stood up straight with reddish ears, turned to look back, but was turned back by Pei Zheng pinching his chin.
Pei Zheng didn’t have any embarrassment to be smashed, he grinned, his eyes dark and deep.
“I have seen it, His Royal Highness.”
The person who came was the prince of the Celestial Dynasty, Qi Hanlian, who had just returned to the imperial capital.
Although he is the prince, he was not as important as the fourth prince before, and was sent to Jiangnan by the emperor. Now the emperor returned to the imperial capital after being seriously ill. Now he wants to visit the emperor, but he didn’t want to bump into the two people behind the pillar. people.
Qi Han Liankong has the title of a prince, but he takes it very well, but Pei Zheng never takes him seriously.
Qi Hanlian also smiled at Pei Zheng, “Yo, Lord Pei is also here. I went to see the royal father just now? How about it, did the royal father mention to Lord Pei that the prince is back?”
Pei Zheng lightly rubbed his fingers twice, and did not intend to let go of Qi Changyi’s chin. When he spoke, his voice sounded in Qi Changyi’s ear, low and mellow.
“Of course, the Emperor has always been very concerned about His Royal Highness.”
Pei Zheng’s face did not change when he told a lie, but Qi Changyi looked up at Pei Zheng strangely, his father obviously didn’t say that.
Qi Han even believed it to be true, the proud look between his eyebrows could not be hidden, and his tone couldn’t help but lighten up.
“I don’t know, what is Master Pei doing here?” He looked at the people in Pei Zheng’s arms. When he returned to the palace, he heard the rumors circulating in the palace, but now he pretended not to recognize Qi Changyi.
“Who is this?”
Pei Zheng lowered his head and glanced at the nervous man, didn’t answer, just smiled, “His Royal Highness is not going in soon, the emperor is afraid to rest.”
Qi Hanlian saw that the door of the bedroom was about to be closed, so he walked over quickly, and when he passed by the two of them, he didn’t forget to look at Qi Changyi deliberately.
Pei Zheng calmly turned to the side, completely blocking the little man.
After Qi Hanlian walked away, Qi Changyi secretly exposed a small head from Pei Zheng’s arms and glanced at him.
Qi Changyi didn’t have much contact with his own brother, the prince, but today’s feeling is that he doesn’t like this person very much.
“Fortunately, I was almost seen.”
Qi Changyi patted his little chest with a look of relief. He thought he and Pei Zheng were well hidden. So far, no one has reported that Pei Zheng grabbed his hand and put it on his chest. “What? Afraid of being seen, do you think I’m ashamed?”
When he said this, he used a low and gentle tone, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Qi Changyi thought that his words had misunderstood Pei Zheng, and hurriedly explained, “No, brother Pei, I didn’t mean that, yes
Pei Zheng let go of his hand and lowered his eyes, “Okay, I understand.”
