At dawn, a layer of mist floats on the water surface of the hated river, and the morning glow refracted on the water surface is colorful.

Xue Chuyu and Wang Yu stood here all night.

"It's dawn. It's time for her to come. Xue Chuyu said.

"Xuanyunzi?" Wang Yu frowned and shook his head, indicating that the situation was not optimistic.

"To be honest, I'd rather she hadn't come." Xue Chuyu's tone had a hint of gunpowder.

Wang Yu was slightly surprised, "What's the explanation?" ”

Xue Chuyu snorted without explanation, turned over and got on the horse, "Come with me." ”

"Where to go?"

"You'll know when you come."

The two of them got on horseback, took more than a dozen horsemen, and Zhang raised the "Xue" character flag, and actually walked out of the gate to the north.

Wang Yu gradually understood in his heart that this was probably going to meet Xuanyunzi. But Xue Chuyu's tone just now seemed to be very strange, as if Xuanyunzi didn't come, he was going to officially use force against the Turks, which meant that he couldn't care about Xuanyunzi's life or death...... It stands to reason that Xue Chuyu has no reason to have any personal prejudices against Xuan Yunzi, so what is the reason for him to have such thoughts, is it just because he has lost patience?

Wang Yu couldn't figure it out. But there is one thing he understands, that is, no matter what Xue Chuyu does, it must be at Xue Shao's behest.

Whenever he thinks of Xue Shao, Wang Yu's heart is like a big stone - how should I face him?

While pondering, the group stopped.

Xue Chuyu stood at the forefront alone, as quiet as a statue of the god of war that had existed since ancient times, not angry and self-assured, and murderous.

Others, the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.

When the morning glow dispersed and a round of red sun rose into the sky, there were cars, horses, smoke and figures in front of them.

Xue Chuyu's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he waved his hand, "Dismount!" ”

The carriage and horse in front stopped, and it was still the "one ear" envoy that Xue Chuyu was familiar with.

Xue Chuyu didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and walked straight to the carriage, without speaking, clasping his fists and bowing.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and a tired face was revealed.

"General, it's been a long time."

"The fairy aunt is fine, Xue is at ease." Xue Chuyu was about to reach out to help Xuanyunzi get out of the car, but he was startled and stunned!

- Xuan Yunzi, actually holding a big belly.

This! ……

Xuan Yunzi only smiled, "Poor Dao is incapacitated, and General Lao has a hand to help me." ”

Xue Chuyu reacted at this time, and hurriedly and carefully helped Xuan Yunzi get out of the car, but his heart was like a stormy wave...... Xuanyunzi is actually pregnant!

Xue Chuyu helped Xuan Yunzi, and the two walked side by side. Wang Yu and the other soldiers were all a little dumbfounded when they saw Xuan Yunzi's big belly.

Xuan Yunzi whispered in Xue Chuyu's ear: "Where is Xue Shuai?" ”

"At the moment, I am not in the army."

Xuan Yunzi frowned.

"Fairy Gu has something urgent?"

Xuan Yunzi smiled lightly, "If you want to see your father, is it a big deal?" ”

Xue Chuyu was slightly stunned, and let out a sigh of relief...... Fortunately, it's Xue Shuai's species!

Xuan Yunzi glanced at the Turkic envoy and whispered, "The general can quickly arrange for me to meet with Xue Shuai." ”

Xue Chuyu heard it, and it seemed that it was more than just "I want to see my father", so he said: "Right away!" ”

Immediately, with a wave of his hand, the cavalry stopped the Turkic envoys, "The military aircraft is heavy, please stay." It's good to go, don't send it! ”

"Then General Lao told Xue Shuai that our country has agreed to all of Xue Shuai's requests and fulfilled his promises, and asked Xue Shuai to also keep his promise and withdraw his troops, and stop fighting against our country in vain." With that, the Turkic envoy hurried away with his men.

After they left, Xuan Yunzi didn't even enter the Zhou army camp, let alone take a sip of water and a bite of food, so he asked Xue Chuyu to arrange a carriage and a few henchmen to escort her to meet Xue Shao immediately.

"Fairy Gu is not in a hurry due to her physical inconvenience. But if there are any urgent matters, you might as well tell me first, and then I will send a fast horse to inform Xue Shuai, which is also feasible. Xue Chuyu was naturally worried about her body.

"In a few words, I can't say it clearly." Xuan Yunzi stroked his stomach, frowned and gritted his teeth, "I'd better go and see him in person." Time is of the essence and there can be no further delay. ”

"Alright then!" Xue Chuyu had no choice but to comply, and then asked, "Does the Immortal Gu have any place to advise me?" ”

Xuan Yunzi's expression was solemn, "General, be careful, the Turks may take advantage of your unpreparedness to launch a surprise attack." ”

Unexpectedly, Xue Chuyu didn't care at all, but smiled easily, "There is Lao Xiangu's guidance." I'll be careful. ”

Xuan Yunzi blinked, then nodded knowingly, and said no more.

Wang Yu stood aside for a long time without speaking, but Xuan Yunzi walked in front of him.

"Fairy Gu ......" Wang Yu bowed down.

"Are you willing to go with me and meet Xue Shuai first?" Xuan Yunzi asked.

Wang Yu was slightly stunned and said: "It is not appropriate for me to travel alone in the army, I still have to act with General Xue." ”

"It's fine." Xuan Yunzi nodded and looked at Wang Yu deeply, obviously worried about his situation.

Wang Yu smiled bitterly, "The matter has come to this, Wang Mou takes one step at a time." In the future, it will all depend on Xue Shuai, and there will be no complaints about life and death. I only hope that there are still people who believe that Wang's heart has never betrayed the homeland of Middle-earth. ”

"Do you want me to convey these words to Xue Shuai?"

"No, you don't." Wang Yu said, "But Immortal Gu can convey these words to my cousin Shangguan Wan'er and my family." The only thing I want now is for my family not to be ashamed of me, to be ashamed of me. ”

"I will."

The carriage came.

Wang Yu and Xue Chuyu helped Xuanyunzi to board the car. When the curtain was about to fall, Xuan Yunzi told again, "Although I don't know the specific plan of the tooth tent, the Turks will definitely not stop there. Please also be careful. ”

"Okay."

Seeing that Xue Chuyu agreed so easily, Xuan Yunzi was a little relieved, and then boarded the car.

Watching the carriage drift away, Xue Chuyu's expression gradually became solemn.

"Wang Yu, why don't you go with Xuan Yunzi?" He asked, "I can arrange for you to go with your family." ”

"I know." Wang Yu let out a long breath, "But I really haven't figured out how to face Xue Shuai." ”

"Sooner or later, why run away?" Xue Chuyu said.

"Can you escape for a moment...... Just a moment! ”

"He's not unsympathetic. His business is clear to him. Xue Chuyu said, "Perhaps, he won't blame you?" ”

"That's why I don't know how to deal with it." Wang Yu sighed, "No matter what the reason, defecting to the enemy will never be forgiven." ”

"Reader. Brainless. Xue Chuyu shook his head helplessly, but he was thinking in his heart...... You really shouldn't be here!

Black Sand City, in the tent of Zhou Junshuai.

Helian Guchuan handed over a cloth bag, Xue Shao took it carefully, opened it, and there were some stones and powdery things inside.

"How many can you find?" Xue Shao asked.

"A lot." Helian Guchuan said, "If it weren't for the fact that there are a lot of these things here, Xue Shuai wouldn't have arranged for me to prepare gunpowder here and try to make a tiger squat cannon." Isn't it? ”

Xue Shao nodded, "Go, get a basin of water." ”

Helian Guchuan did as he said, and Xue Shao poured all the stone powder into the water.

There was a burst of cool air, and the water in the basin gradually formed ice slag.

Helian Guchuan was stunned, "I have been with it all day long, but I didn't know that it still had such a wonderful use?" ”

"If you are afraid that the gunpowder will become invalid if it gets wet, of course you will not know about this characteristic of it." Xue Shao said, "Northern Emperor Xuanzhu, wonderful name, wonderful characteristics. ”

Helian Guchuan blinked, "Xue Shuai wants to use it to break the enemy?" ”

"There are ideas. However, difficult. Xue Shao said, "Although the Northern Emperor Xuanzhu is prolific, the black sand is adjacent to the desert and there is no river, and there is little rain all year round. It is still difficult for people and horses to drink water, so where can they find water to destroy the enemy? ”

"It's really difficult...... Helian Guchuan also shook his head, "In the autumn and winter when there is little rain, we have to send thousands of people to travel more than 100 miles every month to be responsible for fetching water, otherwise people and horses will die of thirst." ”

Xue Shao couldn't help but sigh lightly, unless I suddenly have Zhuge Liang's ability to borrow the east wind, otherwise, it will be difficult for this toy to come in handy!

The two were discussing when the guards suddenly came to report that Li Xianyuan was waiting outside the door.

Xue Shao was surprised, why did he come back again?

Xue Shuai was busy, so he said goodbye. But if there is a rebuke, send someone to give a command. Helian Guchuan was very sensible and retired first.

Li Xianyuan hurriedly broke in, and Xue Shao drank head-on, "One hundred thousand people are in a hurry to call you back to Beijing, why did you come back again?" ”

"I can't go back!" Li Xianyuan was sweating profusely more than him, "In the counties and villages and towns in the state, all the passages that can go south have been blocked and controlled by the army, and even those secret paths where the northern horse gangs smuggled goods have not been spared. On the official road, the ordinary people who passed by and traveled were strictly checked, and if they were slightly suspicious, they would be shackled and imprisoned. That's better to kill three thousand by mistake than let one go! ”

Xue Shaozhi gritted his teeth, "What do they want to do?" ”

"I don't know." Li Xianyuan shook his head, "I seem to have heard that the imperial court sent a general to lead the troops north to defend the state. It is said that it is an eventful autumn in the north of Di Restless, and prevention is not burned ......"

"It's actually a sharp knife, pinned to Xue's waist, right?" Xue Shao said in a deep voice.

Li Xianyuan did not pick up the stubble...... Isn't this clear?

Xue Shao pondered for a moment, "Could it be Wang Xiaojie?" ”

Li Xianyuan clapped his hands, "Isn't that him?" ”

Xue Shao couldn't help laughing.

Li Xianyuan was a little dumbfounded, "Xue Shuai, what's so ridiculous about this?" ”

"It's just a reminder of the past. It feels like a coincidence, funny, and laughs. Xue Shao smiled a little self-deprecatingly and said, "Many years ago, like Wang Xiaojie now, I led troops north to prevent problems before they burned. ”

Li Xianyuan pondered for a while before he understood, "Oh, what Xue Shuai said was that when the Yangzhou Mutiny was in place, Cheng Wuting was a general?" ”

"yes!" Xue Shao couldn't help but let out a long sigh, "Now the bones of the evil are cold. Xue someone, but repeated his mistakes! ”

"This ...... It's not a repeat of the past, right? Li Xianyuan was a little squeaky, in fact, he also felt that the fates of the two were really strikingly similar!

"Yes or no!" Xue Shao smiled indifferently, sat down calmly, and said, "I never believe in fate!" ”

"Then Xue Shuai, what do you believe?"

"I believe in myself."

Li Xianyuan smiled bitterly, "Where ......is Princess Taiping?" ”

"Then it's up to her to deal with it." Xue Shao's brows furrowed slightly, and he looked at Li Xianyuan intently, "You god stick, it's okay to come back." I'm where I need you! ”

"Xiao Sheng's chest has no ink belly and no good strategy, and his hands are even more powerless, what can he do to help Xue Shuai?" Li Xianyuan was very worried.

"Borrow, East, Wind!"
