Chapter 21: Counterinsurgency (4)
Although the rebels of North and South Vietnam are still in turmoil, the city of Dong Lai, where martial law has been fully lifted, has long since returned to its former prosperity.
Wen Bufan quietly sent 20,000 troops to the North and South Vietnamese, striving to put down the rebellion as soon as possible.
"It's windless tonight, it's quiet!" Isabel said as she stood on the balcony and looked at the night sky.
"Yes! The moonlight is so beautiful! Wen Bufan hugged Isabel from behind and said.
"Such a beautiful night, you should really appreciate it." Isabel said.
"Yes! It's a pity that there are always people who don't understand the amorous feelings! Wen Bufan said.
Isabel smiled and leaned into Wen Bufan's arms and said, "How nice it would be if it was always so peaceful!" ”
In the Holy Maiden Temple, the Holy Maiden Xiyue was holding a teacup, but her eyes looked in the direction of the palace, and the tea in the teacup was already cold. "You don't even know to be here with me." The Holy Maiden Xiyue said faintly.
"If he doesn't come, I'll come!" Suddenly, a voice appeared behind the Holy Maiden Xiyue.
The Holy Maiden Xiyue turned around and asked, "Who is it?" When he turned around, he saw a woman standing there prettyly.
"Who are you?" The Holy Maiden Xiyue looked at the veiled woman and asked.
"It doesn't matter who I am! What matters is who you are? The woman looked at the Holy Maiden Xiyue and asked.
"I am the holy daughter of this Donglai country!" The Holy Maiden Xiyue said proudly.
"Holy Maiden?" There was an obvious and teasing tone in the woman's tone, and she looked at the holy woman Xiyue and said, "You are the holy woman?" Are you a saint or not, you should know in your heart that on that day, if no one else is present, you can really awaken the heart of the ocean? ”
"Who the hell are you?" The Holy Maiden Xiyue looked at the woman and said.
"I said, it doesn't matter who I am, it matters who you are!" The woman said.
"Who am I? Even if I'm not a real saint, I'm the princess of Donglai Kingdom with the blood of the royal family! The Holy Maiden Xiyue said,
"Haha! You're right, but don't forget! What else do you have in you besides your so-called royal blood? And what happened back then, have you really forgotten? The woman said.
"What's the matter?" Saint Xiyue said.
"Don't say you forgot! Didn't the person who gave you 'Rain' tell you? The woman said.
"Who? Hasn't the rain been on me all the time? There was a hint of confusion in the eyes of the Holy Maiden Xiyue.
"If you can't remember, just look at this!" The woman had an extra bead in her hand at some point. The eyes of the Holy Maiden Xiyue looked at the picture that appeared on the bead.
A garden is shown with a couple walking in the garden, and the woman has a bulging belly, apparently pregnant. Her husband was careful to stay by her side. Both men had happy smiles on their faces.
The picture suddenly changed again, to a room, the mother-in-law and maids outside were pulling and pulling, in and out, and the woman inside was lying on the bed sweating profusely. It's about to be born at first glance. After a long time, the room fell silent. The picture turned again, and the man's hesitant face appeared. What's going on? Isn't it a joy to have a baby?
As soon as the picture turned, the man sat on the edge of the bed, and the woman who had just given birth was reclining on the bed, and the faces of both of them were full of sadness! The woman's face was full of tears!
The picture turned again, and there were three cradles beside the bed!
At the end of the picture, there is a seaside, and a woman in palace clothes gently puts a basket into the sea! Then the screen disappears!
The mind of the Holy Maiden Xiyue was spinning rapidly, who is the child in this basket? It can't be me, right? That's impossible!
"That's you!" The woman's voice rang out again.
The Holy Maiden Xiyue looked up and saw that the woman slowly took off her veil, and she looked exactly like herself!
"It can't be!" The Holy Maiden Xiyue shouted loudly.
"What's wrong with you, Holy Maiden?" The maid on duty at night ran in and asked.
The Holy Maiden Xiyue found herself sitting on the bed in her dirty clothes, covered in fragrant sweat, it turned out to be a dream!
The Holy Maiden Xiyue took a few breaths and said to the maid, "It's okay, you go out!" ”
"Yes!" After the maid withdrew, the holy maiden Xiyue couldn't sleep anymore, put on a coat and got out of bed, walked to the window, and looked at the bright moon outside the window. The ups and downs in my heart, at this time, I actually thought that he already knew that I was not a saint, why was I still so worried in my heart? Now that the country of Donglai has been unified, I don't have to continue to do it, shouldn't he also ...... Thinking of this, Saint Xiyue's pretty face actually turned slightly red.
And at this time in the palace of Yanjing City, Zixi, who had recovered some of her memory, did not sleep, and was also sitting by the window, holding her cheeks and looking at Mingyue, I don't know what she was thinking?
Wen Bufan gently hugged Isabel and said, "They're here!" ”
"Let's meet them together!" Isabel said with her eyes closed, leaning on Wen Bufan's arms.
"Good!" After Wen Bufan finished speaking, he jumped off the platform with Isabel in his arms, and the two of them got out of the palace in a few ways! Ran directly to the city wall near the south gate!
The two of them were extremely fast, and it was late at night and no one noticed at all.
At this time, several sentries at the south gate were sleeping soundly with guns, and several black shadows quietly came to them, put them down quietly, and then opened the south gate of Donglai City, passed through the urn city, and opened the outside gate.
A few black shadows walked out of the city and learned a few bird calls, and hundreds of bloodthirsty monsters of different races appeared in the darkness, and behind these monsters, there were also some armies that were no different from ordinary people, and it seemed that there were more than 10,000 people.
These people walked into the urn city at the south gate of Donglai City without a sound.
Wen Bufan and Isabel looked at each other and smiled.
The leading few people passed through the urn city and were about to enter Donglai City, when they suddenly saw that the south gate of Donglai City was actually closed, and those people struck lightly a few times, hoping that their companions inside would open the door, but there was no sound inside. Those few people wondered to themselves, and at this time, the troops behind them also slowly walked into the urn city.
One of the leaders felt that something was wrong, walked to the edge of the city wall, and wanted to jump onto the city wall, but as soon as he got up, he was shot directly down by a cold arrow!
"Not good! There is an ambush! Another man shouted!
Before the words fell, the city walls were brightly lit. In the firelight, the surrounding walls were all full of people, holding bows and arrows and aiming at the bloodthirsty monsters below!
"I advise you not to make useless struggles, to lay down your weapons strangely, maybe I will consider sparing your lives!" Wen Bufan looked at the people below and said.
"Hahahaha! Joke! What if you were prepared? You think we're the guys? The man looked at Wen Bufan and said.
