Chapter 28
"You...you want to kill me?" Yu Shang's face turned pale and he looked at Wu Mei's latest chapter in horror.
Wu Mei smiled charmingly, stretched out her hand, touched his cheek, and said in a soft voice: "Your Highness, please rest assured, even if I kill you, you will die happily."
"Ah -" Yu Shang seemed to have been bitten by a snake. He started screaming continuously, thrashing around with his hands and feet, and struggling violently. Unintentionally, his elbow hit the wound under Tang Yin's ribs. The latter frowned and said He didn't say anything, he just waved his hand and gave him a hard slap in the face.
Following the crisp sound, Yu Shang immediately fell silent. His head was buzzing from the beating, and stars were shooting out of his eyes. His eyes were distracted and his head was hanging down weakly.
Tongmen’s geographical location is unique. There is a ditch sandwiched between two mountains, and Tongmen is in the ditch. The intersection is tightly blocked. If you want to pass, you must pass through Tongmen.
At this time, Ningguo's army was already stationed outside Tongmen.
Looking from afar, I saw companies connected with companies, tents next to tents, flags erected high, scattered like a forest, huge semi-circular camps crowded outside Tongmen, and countless Ten miles long, you can't see the edge at a glance.
When they walked to a high ground and looked at Tongmen, this was what they saw.
After seeing it, Wu Mei and Wu Ying were dumbfounded, the Feng Bing Feng Generals were dumbfounded, and Tang Yin was equally dumbfounded.
In fact, Wu Mei had already received the news that Ning Guo's army was approaching Tongmen City, but she never expected that Ning Guo would gather so many people. Looking at this posture, they were simply here to fight to the death, and they would not give up until Tongmen was captured.
Qiu Zhen, who was behind Tang Yin, looked around hastily and involuntarily made a sound of inhalation. He murmured blankly: "This...there must be at least four armies, more than 400,000 people, right?"
Wu Yi, who followed him, gave a wry smile and said, "Even if it doesn't happen, it's almost there!"
"How can we pass with so many enemies?" After Qiu Zhen finished speaking, his eyes naturally fell on Yu Shang, who was lying on Tang Yin's horse.
Originally, he thought that he had more than enough to guarantee their smooth return to Tongmen, but now that he saw Ning Guo's huge army, Qiu Zhen felt a little unsure.
"Whether you can successfully pass through the enemy's army depends on the weight of this prince." Tang Yin said with a deep look.
Wu Mei's expression was complicated, and she was thoughtful and silent. She and Qiu Zhen had the same idea. Although she had Yu Shang as a hostage, facing hundreds of thousands of enemy troops, it would be an absolute lie to say she wasn't worried.
Seeing that she was standing there without moving or speaking, Tang Yin frowned and reminded in a low voice: "General Wu, should we leave?"
"Go?" Wu Mei didn't react for a moment, looked at him blankly, and asked, "Where are we going?"
Tang Yin rolled his eyes and said, "Of course we're going to Tongmen."
Wu Mei secretly shuddered, waved her hands and said, "Don't worry, I'll think about it again."
Women are women, no matter where they come from, they are always indecisive when things happen. Tang Yin curled his lips in dissatisfaction and said in a deep voice: "Staying here will only be more detrimental to us." As he said that, he turned around and pointed to the rear, and said: "Yuan Kui and his followers will arrive soon. If you don't leave, Unexpectedly, the enemy in front should also have discovered us. If we stay here and cower, it will only let the enemy see our guilty conscience and give others an opportunity. Instead of passively waiting for the enemy to come to us, it is better to take the initiative to find us. By attacking the enemy, at least we won’t suffer a psychological disadvantage, General Wu, what do you think?”
These words surprised Wu Mei, and made everyone else have to look at Tang Yin in a different light, especially Qiu Zhen, who nodded repeatedly and secretly praised Tang Yin for not only being brave enough, but also not simple-minded.
After pondering for a moment, Wuying responded: "That's what General Tang said. If the other party doesn't care about Yu Shang's life and death and insists on killing us, we will be dead even if we stay here. It's better to take the initiative to meet them, and maybe we can take the initiative. Win a chance of survival."
Hearing what Wuying said, Wumei no longer hesitated. She took a deep breath, slowly raised her hand, paused in the air for a moment, waved it forward fiercely, and shouted: "Hold my strong wind flag and move forward!"
She gave an order, and hundreds of soldiers under her command unfolded and hung up the flags and streamers of the Feng Kingdom that had been put away long ago. For a moment, the top of the team turned into a black ocean.
When they were still about 200 meters away from the Ning** camp, the camp gate opened wide, and then, a large group of cavalry rushed out from inside, less than 5,000 in number. The knights on the horses were all wearing silver helmets and silver armor, and their heads were Bai Ying was holding a silver spear, and even the war horses below were covered in silver chain armor. Looking at it coldly, the whole team was shining with silver, so bright that it was dazzling.
What a dazzling team of cavalry! Tang Yin tightened the reins of his horse, narrowed his eyes slightly, and quietly looked at the opponent's cavalry.
The distance of two hundred meters is just a blink of an eye for the cavalry.
Not long after, five thousand Ningguo cavalry arrived in front of Tang Yin and others.
Without any orders, the Ningguo cavalry stood still and formed a neat square formation. Then, the cavalry in front spread out to the left and right in tacit agreement, leaving a three-meter-wide passage in the middle, and then a group of knights walked out of it.
The leader was a young man wearing a brocade robe. He was under thirty years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a dignified appearance. The knights guarding him were all burly men with strong backs and strong waists, and they were all full of energy. , his eyes are brighter, and he can see that these knights are all spiritual martial arts masters with profound cultivation without using insight.
The young man did not walk out of the square formation directly. He stopped his horse and looked at Tang Yin and the others in front of him. After looking at them for a moment, he focused his gaze and said in a loud voice: "Which one of you is in charge?"
His voice was low, but he was confident, and his tone naturally revealed a sense of majesty.
Wu Mei and Wu Ying looked at each other and urged their horses forward in unison. After taking a few steps and stopping, Wu Mei said, "Who are you?"
"Yu Jia!" When the young man saw Wu Mei, his eyes suddenly lit up, like two knives piercing Wu Mei's face.
ah! It turns out that this is the second prince of Ningguo, Yu Jia!
Wu Mei was secretly surprised and couldn't help but look at Yu Shang lying on Tang Yin's horse. The two were brothers. Their appearance, body shape and clothes were very similar, but their temperaments were completely different.
Yu Shang is timid and lustful. You can tell at a glance that he is the kind of pampered playboy. But Yu Jia is completely different. His eyes are clear and sharp, his brows are heroic, and he has a submissive temperament when he raises his hands and feet. Of course it's not something you're born with, but something you develop over time.
This person is different from Yu Shang and cannot be underestimated. Wu Mei was wary, with a seductive smile on her face, and Sharou said in a charming voice: "It turns out to be His Highness the Second Prince, whom I have admired for a long time. We were just passing by here, and His Highness the Second Prince He Lao came out to greet him in person. It's really... …”
Yu Jia was not in the mood to play riddles with Wu Mei now. His whole mind was focused on his brother's safety. He interrupted Wu Mei's words coldly and said, "You don't need to act any more. I just want to know where my brother is."
He and Yu Shang are compatriots, with the same father and mother. Prince Ning has many children. He and Yu Shang have the deepest relationship. Although Yu Shang does not live up to expectations, he often dislikes him.
Yu Shang, who was lying on the horse in a daze, suddenly heard his brother's voice and immediately cheered up. He didn't know where the strength came from. He raised his head with all his strength and saw Yu Jia in the Ningguo cavalry formation. , his eyes turned red, big tears rolled down, and he screamed with a trembling voice: "Second brother, save me!"
Yu Jia trembled and hurriedly looked around, meeting Yu Shang's pitiful eyes asking for help.
Almost out of instinct, he clamped his legs around the horse's belly, trying to urge the horse forward, but soon he calmed down, pulled the reins sharply, and stopped the horse.
His eyes fell on Yu Shang for a while before slowly moving up to look at Tang Yin who was sitting on the saddle, and shouted in a gloomy tone: "Let him go!"
His eyes were so cold that they could freeze an elephant to death, but Tang Yin remained unmoved and sat on the saddle without saying a word. He didn't even look at Yu Jia, as if the other person was not talking to him.
Seeing this, Yu Jia was furious. As the second prince of Ning Kingdom and the son whom King Ning relied on the most, he was usually held in high esteem by others. When had he ever been treated with such indifference? He clenched his teeth and turned red.
Looking at his appearance, Wu Mei secretly smiled in her heart. Tang Yin seemed to be born with a stubborn nature and never put others in his eyes, including himself. This time Yu Jia also encountered this nail.
She chuckled and said: "Why is Your Highness Yu Jia angry?! Of course you can let us let your brother go, but the premise is that you have to let us pass. When we enter Tongmen safely, Yu Shang will naturally be released Your Highness will hand it back to you."
"Second brother, don't listen to her! This... this woman just said that she would kill me when they return to Tongmen and take my head to see the Feng King..." Seeing Yu Jia, Yu Shang became bolder Yes, this was an instinctive reaction. All along, when he got into trouble, it was Yu Jia who helped him and wiped his butt. With Yu Jia here, he had found his backbone and was not afraid of anything.
"Shut up!"
Tang Yin scolded him angrily and slapped him again with his backhand.
Yu Shang wailed and screamed as he was beaten, with snot and tears flowing out of his nose.
Yu Jia's eyes suddenly widened, almost bursting into flames when he looked at Tang Yin.
After taking several deep breaths, his excitement calmed down a little. Although in his heart he wanted to cut Tang Yin into pieces, after all, his brother was in someone else's hands and he did not dare to act rashly.
He looked at Yu Shang and shouted angrily: "Stop talking to me!" After saying that, he looked at Wu Mei and said: "I can only let you go if you let him go first. This is what I can accept. The only condition!”
