Spring and Autumn GL

The army rushed in like a tide, and just as the former army walked under the Gusu stage, Xi Shi suddenly stood up and shouted:

"Soldiers, withdraw for me!"

Zheng Dan was shocked, thinking why Xi Shi withdrew his troops?It was hard to ambush, even if you didn't dig a trap, you could kill a lot of people by shooting arrows from both wings!

She hadn't finished thinking, when suddenly the dust flew up on the street, and countless ropes emerged from the ground, leading directly to the houses on both sides. A big deep pit was formed.

Fan Li kept an eye out and didn't rush forward with the army, but he didn't expect such a big change.With just one click, thousands of soldiers fell down, and the soldiers behind couldn't hold back their feet, and kept falling into the pit, and some of them fell to death, crushed to death, or suffocated.

"All the troops listen to the order and set fire!"

Numerous rockets flew out from both sides and fell straight into the pit. Sergeants of the Wu army continued to risk their lives to add kerosene, dry firewood and other kindling materials into the pit.

Zheng Dan breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was relieved, suddenly a sergeant ran up, sweating all over his face. The general didn't even yell, and said anxiously:

"No...it's not good, hundreds of experts from the Yue Kingdom attacked from the north gate, they have already hit the palace, and took away the crown prince!"

"What——" Zheng Dan seemed to have a string snapped in his head, his eyes dazzled, and he felt dizzy, and he fell down straight, the back of his head hit the corner of the hard city wall, his head was bleeding immediately, his eyes went dark, Lost consciousness.

The east gate was on fire, and Fan Li had no choice but to hesitate. Suddenly, a sergeant rushed over and handed him a swaddle. He gritted his teeth fiercely, and shouted:

"Shi Yiguang! You've gone too far! Now that the crown prince is in my hands, you can't save him! Everything you and Zheng Dan have done is meaningless, otherwise you and I will cross the country and take the crime soon. It's because of you two. If you break Wu's meritorious service, you may be spared the death penalty! Think about it, if you stay in Wu country wholeheartedly and wait for Fu Chai to come back, you will still die!"

The smoke was so heavy that Xi Shi couldn't see Fan Li clearly. She didn't know whether the words were lying to her or what. She coughed and replied angrily:

"So what about the prince, since you have entered my Gusu city, you can never go out! You think that this is fine, but if you dare to take a step further, there is still another way! You can count your [-] troops here, let's come here!" The fish will die and the net will be broken!"

Fan Li didn't know whether what Xi Shi said was true or not, but he had already suffered a big loss before, and he didn't dare to move forward rashly. Besides, the fire was so big that it might not be extinguished even if it burned for a day.

"The rear army has changed to the front army, retreat first." He ordered coldly.

In fact, Xishi was not even half sure that she could scare Fan Li back. She had no other way. If Fan Li moved forward, the only ones who could stop him were the city militia.But unexpectedly, Fan Li was really afraid and withdrew back.She breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the wall to look for Zheng Dan, but she didn't find her for a while, fearing that something might happen to her, she hurriedly got off the Gusu Terrace, and walked around the city in the light of the fire, and saw Zheng Dan with blood on her head. Lying there, startled:

"What's wrong with General Zheng! Call the military doctor quickly, call the military doctor quickly!"

One of the lieutenants replied: "General Zheng heard that the crown prince had been captured. He was so out of breath that he hit his head on the city wall. The military doctor has already sent someone to look for him."

Xi Shi didn't dare to touch Zheng Dan, stomped her feet and looked in the direction of the retreat of the Vietnamese army. Suddenly, she saw a glimmer of fire in the rear of the Vietnamese army, which seemed to be on fire somewhere.

While he was wondering, he suddenly saw commotion among the Vietnamese army, and a small shadow rushed towards the city gate on foot, much faster than the chasing cavalry.After seeing the man clearly, Xi Shi staggered back three steps, Ah Zhi, she...how did she come from the Vietnamese army!

The sergeant at the head of the city drew his bowstring and aimed at the group of people.

"Don't shoot the arrow, don't shoot the arrow, let her in!" Xi Shi shouted.The sergeants at the top of the city seemed to only listen to what Zheng Dan said, and they still ignored it and fired their arrows.

Fortunately, the rain of swords was not dense, and Ah Zhi was small in stature. She rushed left and right in the rain of arrows, but she was slightly scratched, but the cavalry chasing behind her was too big. They didn't dare to chase any more, turned around and fled back.

"Stop, stop! She's one of my own!" Xi Shi shouted.

Only then did the sergeants put down their bows and arrows.The city gate was on fire, and Ah Zhi couldn't get in. Seeing Xi Shi anxiously pacing up and down the top of the city, she kicked out a sigh of relief, stepped on the city wall and went straight up the city.Kankan was about to reach the top of the city, but her footsteps suddenly slowed down, she stretched out her hand to Xi Shi, and she was about to fall.

Xi Shi leaned out half of her body in desperation and grabbed her arm, but she was also led down to the city. The two soldiers hurriedly kept Xi Shi's leg and pulled them up.

"Mother, please forgive the crime of disrespect!" The two sergeants knelt down.

"Not guilty, not guilty, you saved me, it's too late for me to thank you." Xi Shi turned her head and said something, then hugged A Zhi:

"You, you... where did you go? I'm so anxious, woo..." She began to cry.

A Zhi wiped Xi Shi's tears: "I made you worry, I wanted to discuss it with you, but you are unconscious, I can only act on my own."

Xi Shi sighed, still looking at A Zhi worriedly, and caught a glimpse of the Vietnamese army out of the corner of her eye, and saw that the fire in the army was getting bigger and bigger, and it was almost connected with the setting sun.

Fan Li and Gou Jian were burned three times in a row today, and their tempers also burned up. The last fire turned out to be his food and grass!

This Ah Zhi was very good at his work, he burnt tens of thousands of loads of grain and grass, and there was not even a single grain left. Although the other grain team was fine, it was only enough for the tens of thousands of people to go back to the country of Yue.In the battle of Gusu City, the Wu army killed more than [-] Vietnamese troops with thousands of people.Gou Jian was also very angry, the two never expected that Xi Shi and Zheng Dan would turn against each other and use the art of war they learned in Yue State to defeat them for a while.The two first scolded the two women thoroughly, and then discussed their future plans helplessly.

With the remaining 3 people, it is not a big deal to attack Gusu City, but what about after it is captured?The grain and grass stored in Gusu City are not enough to support the Vietnamese army for half a month. This year, the Wu State has no crops. I am afraid that there will be no grain and grass for years.Half a month later, when Fu Chai came back, wouldn't they still have to leave?It's better to withdraw the army now to preserve the strength, anyway, the prince has already got it, so there is no need to worry about the future.The two called Shang Wenzhong together, and they both felt that it was the best policy to leave the Yue Kingdom immediately, so they immediately killed Prince You, handed over the body to a dead man and took him back to the Wu Kingdom to demonstrate, and returned to the Yue Kingdom overnight.

The three of Xishi returned to the North Palace, Zheng Dan was still in a coma, but there was nothing serious about it, but his body was extremely weak and needed to rest, and it was difficult to wake up for a while.

After confirming that the prince was really taken away by the Vietnamese army, Xi Shi and A Zhi looked sad and worried. Zheng Dan is a good man, how could he be played by fate?Until now, there is no one around her who treats her sincerely, only Fu Chai. After she came back, she heard that she was a spy. Even if she was not angry and killed her, he would definitely not love her again.Compared with Zheng Dan, the two of them are much luckier.

"Tell me, what did you do this day?" Xi Shi felt that the atmosphere was a bit oppressive, so she found some topics to chat with A Zhi.

Azhi said: "Last night I took advantage of the night to sneak into the Vietnamese army, secretly killed a sergeant who came out to the latrine, and slipped into the army wearing his armor. Fan Li and Goujian were talking in the tent, so I eavesdropped outside. I heard that there were a thousand elite soldiers, so I went to look for it. I searched all night, but the soldiers did not find it, but I found a lot of food and grass. I wanted to burn the food and grass on the spot, but I was afraid that everyone would fight the fire together in the barracks. If you are not clean, you will beat snakes... beat snakes..."

"Shock the grass to scare the snake." Xi Shi reminded.

"Oh, I was afraid of scaring the snake, so I secretly stole some fire starters and hid them on my body, and I will go to burn food tomorrow when the army is in chaos, so that they will whip—what will happen..."

"It's too long." Xi Shi smiled.

"Yes, it's too late. Later in the morning when the soldiers were called, I accidentally let me know the location of the thousand sergeants. I took advantage of the march and mixed into the team all the way to the west gate of Gusu City. Wujia was guarding the west gate. Those 1000 people are very tight, and the homeless can’t keep guard, so I will help her. Who knows that the centurion of the [-] sergeants knows me.”

"How did he know you?"

"Do you still remember that I taught hundreds of soldiers in Yue State? He was one of them—he was probably frightened by my broken leg at that time, and he didn't dare to be careless. Gone. I am also stupid, they left so easily, I should have thought that they must have other tasks, I should have followed...otherwise the homeless son would not have died!"

Xi Shi shook A Zhi's hand: "It's not your fault, it's not your fault, if it wasn't for you, those thousand soldiers must have left the city early in the morning. So you went to burn food later?"

Ah Zhi nodded: "But I was found burning food, I didn't dare to fight tens of thousands of people, so I ran away quickly, so I saw you in the east of the city."

Xi Shi smiled and said: "You have done well, you can become a general."

"Hey, tell me to fight people, but I can't lead soldiers. If you want to break your head, I can't think of digging holes in the street."

"That was also a helpless move for me, and Yi Guang was thoughtful." Zheng Dan suddenly answered.The two turned their heads happily, only to see that Zheng Dan had opened his eyes quietly, with a confused look on his face, as if he had slept for a long time, and he didn't know what night it was.

"No home—" Xi Shi wanted to comfort her, but she couldn't say anything.

Zheng Dan sat up and waved his hands: "It's okay, I know everything. A friend fell into the hands of the Vietnamese army, and I was prepared for the worst. I tried my best to protect him, but I didn't want to see this result. , even if I die in battle, I will die before Ah You—but now things are like this, what else can I say? It’s only God’s will playing tricks.”

"It's all my fault, I should follow them again..." Ah Zhi lowered his head.

Zheng Dan smiled wryly: "I don't blame you, how can I blame you? I don't blame anyone for this matter. What's the use of blaming anyone? What happened to the Vietnamese army? You burned their food and grass, why did they fight back in a rage? manage?"

Xi Shi said: "Don't worry, the Vietnamese army has retreated just now."

"That friend..."

Xi Shi bit her lip and said in a low voice:

"A friend, his body has just been coffined, in the West Palace..."

Zheng Dan turned pale with shock. She didn't expect to hear the news of her son's death so soon. She originally thought that the Yue Kingdom might want to use Ayou as a bargaining chip for something, but she didn't expect them to report the goal of extermination as soon as they came up. !That’s right, that’s right, what does Yue want to change?What they want is the destruction of the entire Wu Kingdom!

With a bandage on her head, she hurriedly put on her clothes, and with the support of Xi Shi and A Zhi, she came all the way to the West Palace. When she entered the door, she saw two rows of maids and soldiers in plain white guarding the prince's spirit.

"A friend..." Zheng Dan called out bitterly, and staggered to the side of the coffin.The coffin has not been sealed, just to wait for Zheng Dan to see him.

The two sergeants lifted the lid of the coffin, and the baby's body was exposed, with a shocking bloodstain on the neck—he was killed by cutting his throat, a fatal blow, and did not suffer much pain.

"Ayou, mother is sorry for you, mother failed to keep you..."

The author has something to say: what is abuse?Abusing the body and mind is not considered abuse. What is really abused is the tepid teasing of fate.
