As the night gradually deepened, the palace lanterns and candles under the porch had been quietly extinguished.

The palace was very quiet, Zhuang Qingyue was lying on the bed, listening to the sound of snow falling outside the window, tossing and turning for some reason, having trouble falling asleep.

Chang'an's words rang in his ears over and over again: "My lord must have the best of intentions for you..."

He repeated these words over and over on the tip of his tongue, then suddenly sneered, covered himself with a quilt and turned over.

The movement of turning over was a bit loud, and Chang An who was under the bed woke up with a start, and got up in a daze to help him tuck the corners of the quilt again.

"What's the matter, son, but you didn't sleep well?"

Chang Anqiang opened his eyes and mumbled a question in a low voice.

Zhuang Qingyue paused: "It's fine."

The wind outside the window suddenly became louder, and the howling night wind completely covered his voice.

There was a "boom", as if something heavy suddenly fell to the ground.

Zhuang Qingyue's ears buzzed, and she was a little stunned by the sound.

Chang An, who was still in a daze, suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the door, and was completely sober because of this.

The loud bang was like a signal.Immediately afterwards, the noise gradually increased, hurried footsteps sounded outside the window, and the main house not far away was knocked loudly.

Something happened, Chang An immediately reacted.

"My lord is resting, I'll go out and have a look."

He hurried over to open the door, and saw that Xiao Lingfeng had already dressed and left the door.He strode out of the courtyard with a solemn expression, followed by Xiao Qi who also frowned.

After walking two steps, Xiao Lingfeng glanced at Chang'an, and looked over with a pause: "Take care of him, don't leave the palace these few days, wait for me to come back."

After speaking, he left the courtyard without looking back.

Xiao Qi followed closely behind, and when passing by Chang'an, he only had time to say "urgent military situation" in a low voice, and hurriedly followed Xiao Lingfeng.

Chang An responded, and when he looked up again, only Xiao Lingfeng's back was left in his field of vision.

I saw him walking like flying, the black cloak billowing like ink as he moved, the night was deep, but the billowing corners of the robe gleamed golden dim light under the faint skylight reflected by the white snow.

"What's wrong?" A cold voice sounded with doubts.

As soon as Chang An turned his head, he saw Zhuang Qingyue leaning against the door, looking into the yard.

A dwarf pine in the courtyard was blown down by the wind, and its branches lay across the main courtyard. Before it was too big, a thick layer of white snow had already accumulated at this moment.

Seeing that Zhuang Qingyue came out without even a thick coat on, Chang An's heart suddenly rose, and he ran over to help him into the room to lie down in two or three steps.

In just a short while, Zhuang Qingyue sneezed from the cold, and the tip of her nose turned red.

Chang'an rekindled the charcoal fire, and finally calmed down and explained: "It is said that there is an emergency military situation, and the prince just left in a hurry."

He looked at the broken branch of the dwarf pine that was almost buried by the snow through the gap of the window, with a sad face: "The wind and snow are so heavy, don't really fight!"

Zhuang Qingyue leaned against the head of the bed, and quickly sifted through the information in her mind with lowered eyes.

The room warmed up again, Chang An saw that Zhuang Qingyue didn't speak any more, so he thought that Zhuang Qingyue had fallen asleep.

At this time, he was worried and couldn't fall asleep again, so he thought of getting a medicine stove to help Zhuang Qingyue fry the medicine.

Just when she got up, she heard Zhuang Qingyue behind her softly say, "Don't worry."

Chang An turned around in surprise.

Zhuang Qingyue looked straight at him, with very certainty in her eyes: "Your prince has planned a strategy, and he must have made arrangements long ago. No matter how this battle is fought, he will not lose."

If he loses, then he is not Xiao Lingfeng, the Lord of War, and he is not worthy to be his opponent.

On the way out of the city, Xiao Lingfeng took the lead, followed by Xiao Qi and Shitou, and the three of them galloped to the Yanshan school grounds with eight personal guards.

Earlier, when the messengers of the Jingbei Army came to report, the Batu League of the Xisha Twelve League suddenly dispatched troops, leading [-] light cavalry across the border and heading straight for the Jingbei Army's defense line.

As soon as he heard the news, Xiao Lingfeng was a little surprised.The original book only said that the Twelve Leagues of Xisha went through the mountainside of Yanshan to make a surprise attack, but did not mention the plot of the light cavalry attack of the Batu League.

So there was some apprehension in the astonishment.

After all, he was just an ordinary college student, how could he have actually been on the battlefield to command a battle?

But after calming down and thinking about it for a while, Xiao Lingfeng understood.

This is shaming.

Although the Xisha Twelve Leagues sometimes disputed and waged wars due to the division of interests, they have always advanced and retreated together in the fight against the Dajing Dynasty.

Now it seems that the Batu League probably sent light cavalry in an attempt to hold back the Jingbei Army on the frontal battlefield, so as to create opportunities for the sneak attacking Xile League.

After thinking about this point clearly, Xiao Lingfeng calmed down, and even looked forward to this confrontation.

On the frontal battlefield, General Pang, who had never been defeated against the Upper Batu League, stayed at the station, so he didn't need to worry about it at all.At the foot of Yanshan Mountain, he had already made arrangements.

Therefore, even if the Xile League finds the Batu League to join forces this time, it is doomed to fail.

On the side of the Xile League, with Xiao Lingfeng deliberately releasing water, the last part of the tunnel in the hinterland of Yanshan Mountain was finally dug out by their people.

But because of the rush of time, the exit near Dajingchao was very narrow, and it was impossible to accommodate the influx of a large number of cavalry.

"Military division, do we really want to go from here?" Alesi, the leader of the Xile League, stood at the entrance of the tunnel to the north of Yanshan Mountain, hesitantly looking at the middle-aged man in a literati gown beside him.

The middle-aged man glanced at him and said coldly: "Does the general not trust Qin?"

Alesi looked serious, and immediately said: "The military division misunderstood, I didn't mean it that way. It's just that the hole is narrow and not suitable for the cavalry of our Xile League to pass through, so I have this question."

The Qin army division snorted coldly: "The mountains to the south of Yanshan Mountain are rugged, which is not suitable for cavalry. Didn't the general know it already? Could it be that the general is timid when he is about to send troops?"

Seeing that Alesi was a little annoyed by his words, Army Master Qin frowned, twitched his mustache, and said along the way:

"All the men in the Xile League are one against ten, and their individual combat ability is unrivaled on the grasslands. Isn't it more than enough to deal with these bean sprout-like big-headed soldiers of the Jingbei Army?"

Alice thought for a moment, indeed.The men in the Xile League are all tall, powerful and powerful. How can they still lose against those skinny chickens of the Jingbei Army?

Seeing Alesi's movement, Qin Junshi rolled his eyes and added: "The fifth watch is the time when people are most tired and sleepy. We walked through the tunnel at that time and caught them by surprise. What did the general think? "

Ale Si pondered for a moment: "It makes sense."

So, based on his trust in the Qin army division and confidence in his elite soldiers, he waved his hand and ordered the cavalry of the Xile League to abandon their horses and walk through the hinterland of Yanshan Mountain.

Qin Junshi did not follow the vanguard battalion on the grounds that his legs and feet were inconvenient, so he waited quietly at the station.

On the south side of Yanshan Mountain, after discovering that the remnants of the previous dynasty had secretly dug a tunnel in the hinterland of Yanshan Mountain a few days ago, Xiao Lingfeng secretly withdrew part of the Jingbei Army, and regrouped at the foot of Yanshan Mountain to avoid eyeliners.

Therefore, on the surface, there is no threat to the Yanshan school grounds because it is vacant for the winter, but in fact the foot of Yanshan Mountain is already full of the Jingbei Army.

Sure enough, within two days of the Jingbei Army's defense, the rabbits from the Xile League ran into it by themselves.

At this moment, heavy snow fell, covering the bodies of the ambushing members of the Jingbei Army, and the vast expanse of whiteness became the best protective color in the ice and snow, but the blessing of strong wine and the restlessness in the blood made these big soldiers not even aware of it. to the cold.

When the first group of Xilemeng cavalrymen appeared at the entrance of the tunnel, the news had already been delivered to Xiao Lingfeng.

Yet they did not move.

They are still waiting, they grit their teeth and resist the urge to rush up and slaughter people, wait for these former enemies of the Sila League to pass through the tunnel completely, and then put them—

Catch it all in one go.
