Chapter 359 Reconciliation

Ling Qingyu stared at the knight who was like a Shura in the crowd without blinking. Looking at the man who couldn't stop him even if he was crowded into a group of Liao soldiers and rushed towards him, a deep feeling surged in his heart. So proud, this is my man!

The Liao army's cavalry was the first to be defeated, and only a hundred or so cavalry were left to flee towards Yuzhou. The remaining infantry did not fare so well. They were beaten to pieces by 20,000 cavalry, and their armor was cut down. The cavalrymen with armored heads were defeated one by one without moving. It didn't take long for the plain to become quieter and quieter. Finally, when the sun began to emit golden light, the battle ended.

Seeing those red-armored knights starting to wander among the corpses, stabbing each other from time to time, Ying Jiu helped Ling Qingyu jump down from the tree.

"There are more here!" Someone shouted, and with a whistle, the steel arrow of Jinnu shot over.

Ying Jiu raised his sword to block, but the force of the steel arrow made him take a step back and spit out blood.

"Zhao!" Ling Qingyu shouted, and then supported Ying Jiu, who was on the verge of collapse.

Although the distance was too far, the sound came like a buzzing mosquito. Yang Zhao was still keen to catch the sound. Before he could react, he had already galloped towards the direction of the sound. He saw a few people over there. A knight raised his crossbow and shouted: "Stop!"

After crossing half of the battlefield, when he saw Ling Qingyu standing under a big tree and supporting Ying Jiu, who was covered in blood, in front of the steel arrow that was shot before he could stop, Yang Zhao's eyes were split, and he felt that his heart was about to jump out of his chest. , spurred the horse to the extreme speed, and flew in that direction.

Ling Qingyu was dumbfounded. He never thought that he would die under the weapons he made. The knight running in front was shouting and he couldn't hear anything clearly. Time seemed to stand still. Only the arrows made of fine steel that were getting closer and closer were reflected. The cold light that came out in his eyes expanded like astigmatism.

Ying Jiu pulled her into his arms and threw her to the ground.

Powerful arrowheads whizzed past from above, but the last one was nailed into his arm. The arrow penetrated the arm and stabbed into his ribs.

"Stop!" Yang Zhao rushed past the knights, swept them off the horse with his spear, then rushed to the tree, jumped off the horse, and fell tremblingly in front of the two men.

"Qingyu?"

"Nine!" Ling Qingyu got up from the ground, helped Ying Jiu up, turned to the shocked Yang Zhao and said, "Is there a military doctor?!"

Seeing that there was no trace of blood on Ying Jiu's face, his eyes had been closed, and even his breathing could not be heard, Yang Zhao turned around and shouted: "Call the military doctor!" Then he took out a Jiu Jiu from the medicine bag on his waist and turned back. The soul pill was stuffed directly into his mouth.

Seeing Ying Jiu's throat moving and swallowing the pill, Ling Qingyu turned around and said anxiously: "Zhao, then Zhao Mingliang is colluding with Xiao Sui! There is a deal between them!"

"Why are you here?" Yang Zhao took the water bag from Xia Shuzheng and was about to hand it to Ying Jiu's mouth, and asked at the same time. Hearing Ling Qingyu's words, he was stunned and had a bad feeling in his heart.

"I went to offer incense and saw that the second prince was assassinated. The second prince captured me and brought me all the way. He didn't leave me until they attacked." Ling Qingyu said simply and clearly. Seeing the military doctor hurried over, he took the shadow. Jiu opened his shirt and said, "Military doctor, please take a look."

The military doctors at Heishui Pass had all been trained by Alan and the three of them, and they were very agile. They first cut off the arrow, and then when they took off Ying Jiu's bandage, they couldn't help but take a breath and asked: "How long will this injury last?" Already?"

"Yesterday at noon." Ling Qingyu's voice gradually became lower, and black appeared around Ying Jiu's wound.

"Fortunately, the miracle doctor should have taken care of it. It's fine. Don't worry, boss!" The military doctor comforted him repeatedly, and then took Ying Jiu's body from Ling Qingyu's hand. When he saw the wound on his back, the corners of his eyes twitched again.

Yang Zhao helped Ling Qingyu up and looked at her carefully. Seeing that she was not injured, Fang breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at the soldiers who were slowly getting up after he swept them off their horses.

Yang Zhao used a lot of force in his eagerness. It was very difficult for the soldier to get up. Then he looked up and saw clearly that the person he had just shot was Ling Qingyu, and he knelt down again with a pop.

Seeing the anger in Yang Zhao's eyes, Ling Qingyu lightly held his hand and said, "Don't blame them. This is a battlefield. People who appear suddenly must be treated as enemies first. If you have a kind heart, you are unlucky." It’s me.” They had just experienced a life-and-death battle, and their nerves were extremely tense. This reaction was completely understandable.

Yang Zhao closed his eyes slightly, knowing that what Ling Qingyu said was right. If it were him, his first reaction would definitely be to take action.

"Get up, pack up, we'll set off right away." When he opened his eyes again, Yang Zhao's eyes were clear and he said in a calm voice.

"Yes!" Several soldiers got up, saluted Ling Qingyu again, got on their horses, and went to assemble with their team.

What happened since noon yesterday, everything he saw and heard along the way was told to Yang Zhao in detail. Seeing Yang Zhao's eyes deep in thought, Ling Qingyu walked to the military doctor and knelt down. Looking at Ying Jiu.

"Fortunately, the miracle doctor treated him and gave him medicine. The medicine he brought was all good. The inside has not deteriorated too much." The military doctor had already treated the wound and was bandaging it carefully. He whispered: "But..." Seeing Ling Qingyu's worried and questioning eyes, the military doctor said cruelly: "He is almost reaching his limit." Although it has not deteriorated too much, it has begun to deteriorate. He needs further treatment and rest immediately, but this is a battlefield and it is In the enemy's country, the miracle doctor was not around, so he could survive for a few days with medicine, but he really didn't dare to say what the consequences would be.

"general?"

Yang Zhao looked in the direction of Weizhou with a sarcastic look on his face and did not respond. Then he was sure that the 100,000 new troops would win, and that Zhao Mingliang would be able to rush over from Xinzhou for reinforcements. He originally suspected that Xiao Sui's troops were brave and good at fighting. His troops were stationed in Xinzhou and Guizhou just to deal with Zhao's army. Moreover, Xinzhou and Yuzhou were separated by mountains. How could they attack so easily? If this war is really going to be fought, they should not go to Yuzhou at all. Instead, the Zhao army should drive directly from the plains to Wuzhou, and they should go straight to Yunzhou. But if Zhao Mingliang and Xiao Sui had an agreement, it would make sense. Xiao Sui let Zhao Mingliang and others come over and let Yeluqi's army be eaten by Zhao's army. In this way, Zhao Mingliang had capital, and Xiao Sui also gathered all the military power in his hands. He said, I'm afraid they can also use this to do something. As for the troops at Heishui Pass, the original order from the Ministry of War was to capture Hunyuan County in Yingxian County and defend the city on the way to reinforcements. From this point of view, they were preparing to send A greeting gift for Shan Fu. It turned out that there was still a trace of luck in my heart, hoping that Zhao Mingliang's unconventional marching route could deceive Xiao Sui and find trails and shortcuts like them to reach Yuzhou. However, Xiao Sui had already known Zhao Mingliang's route map. , Zhao Mingliang’s Zhao Jiajun is really doing well? !

"General! General!" Several horses galloped over from a distance, and a man wearing local clothes on the first horse shouted.

"Let's go!" After recovering his mind, Yang Zhao took a step forward and faced his scout captain.

"Those new troops," Qi Fang and several others jumped off their horses in front of them and said before they had time to salute, "They are defeated!"

Although they knew that those new troops might not be Yeluqi's opponents, they only had 50,000 troops and more than 10,000 of them had been intercepted and killed here. How could they be defeated so quickly? Yang Zhao asked with a cold expression: "What's the specific situation?"

"The New Army moved from the mountain pass to Yuzhou in the morning. They walked for three hours before approaching Yuzhou City. Yeluqi's men and horses had already prepared their formations and were waiting for them. I don't know who commanded them. What was the lineup of the New Army? They didn't have the whole line to press up, but Yeluqi's men and horses were dispersed by a sudden charge. Then, the new troops fled in all directions." Qi Fang took a breath and said: "Some of them escaped through the road. Go back, some of them fled to Xinzhou, and some of them came here."

"Dispersed in one wave?" Xia Shuzheng asked with wide eyes and disbelief.

"Yes, I saw that their main camp retreated first. As soon as the main camp withdrew, the people dispersed." Qi Fang said.

"Are there any Liao soldiers chasing those who fled here?" Yang Zhao asked.

"Yes! There is a mountain pass ahead, where we can ambush!" Qi Fang said.

"Form up the team!" He ordered Xia Shuzheng, and Yang Zhao turned to Qi Fang and said, "Go immediately to explore the movement in the direction of Xinzhou. If Zhao Mingliang's reinforcements do not come, quickly come to the meeting point of Yangjuan."

"Yes!" After wiping their sweat, they all got on their horses and galloped away with the others.

Whistles sounded on the battlefield, and the scattered red-armored knights quickly gathered together and formed a neat formation.

Seeing that the red-armored cavalry had been formed, Yang Zhao turned around and walked to the military doctor. He looked at Ying Jiu who had woken up and said, "Ying Jiu..."

Ying Jiu stood up holding Ling Qingyu's hand and said, "I'm with you." In this situation, no matter where you go, you will be in danger in this chaotic battlefield. It seems that Yang Zhao chose to take her with him.

And, as long as I still have breath, I will not let her leave my sight! Ying Jiu looked at Yang Zhao with indifferent eyes, and the silent meaning was very obvious.

"Give him a horse." Yang Zhao ordered, then got on the horse and handed his hand to Ling Qingyu.

Seeing Ying Jiu riding on the horse with one hand, still smiling at her on his pale face, Ling Qingyu suppressed the tears in his eyes and held Yang Zhao's hand.

Using his hands, he pulled Ling Qingyu onto the horse and sat in front of him. Yang Zhao clamped the horse's belly and headed towards Yuzhou first.

Ling Qingyu stared at the knight who was like a Shura in the crowd without blinking. Looking at the man who couldn't stop him even if he was crowded into a group of Liao soldiers and rushed towards him, a deep feeling surged in his heart. So proud, this is my man!
