The Favored Medical Princess

In the hall, there was silence, the air seemed to be condensed, and there was not even a trace of wind outside.

Guan Yubai picked up the cup of herbal tea that was still half left, and took another sip slowly.

Menkel stared at Guan Yubai for a moment, his heart raised a little bit, and a cold sweat broke out on the back of his neck.He was very sure that Guan Yubai would be moved, even if it wasn't now, after Guan Yubai found out about Xiao Yi's meeting with Xiye's envoy, his heart would definitely waver...

After all, the destruction of the official family will be an eternal pain in Guan Yubai's heart, and it will be a scar that will never heal. It is impossible for Guan Yubai to serve one person wholeheartedly!Even if he stands in Guan Yubai's position, he still feels that people will not be punished for themselves.

Menkel took a deep breath, and persuaded: "Master Hou, I also know that this decision is not easy for Lord Hou, but Lord Hou, half of the country in Xiye was brought down by you alone, and only you He is only worthy of being the master of Xiye, so Prince Xiao just intends to sit back and enjoy the success!"

"The [-] Southern Frontier Army under Lord Hou has long been convinced by his character and intelligence. Presumably, when Lord Hou rises up, they will definitely respond to everyone and serve him as the master... Even if someone dares to mutiny, just kill them to make an example. How much more waves can it stir up!"

"Also, the warriors under our Mengu clan are willing to serve Lord Hou. Lord Hou, this opportunity is not to be missed. You can't wait 'no longer' for others to run out of money. Please think twice!"

Menkel deliberately increased the volume of the word "Zai", calmly reminding Guan Yubai of the fall of the official army nine years ago.

Guan Yubai's pupils shrank sharply, and the expression on his face remained unchanged, but those eyes were as deep as a dark pool of water, as if trying to suck people into them.

There was a moment of silence in the hall, and a cold wind blew in the yard outside, causing the branches and leaves to sway endlessly, the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind kept on.

Guan Yubai seemed to have heard the movement, and looked up at the swaying trees outside. It was the cold winter season, and most of the leaves on the branches had already fallen, leaving only a few residual leaves that were crumbling in the wind...

Seeing that Guan Yubai was moved, Menker felt that he had already convinced the other party, and he finally let go of half of his heart. He knew that it was too late, so he didn't continue to force Guan Yubai to make a choice, but changed the subject: "Hou Lord, regarding Zhongleng City, I...will offer something at the end!"

He immediately changed his name to "The Last General" to show his loyalty, and at the same time Huo Di stood up, respectfully clasped his fists and begged for orders: "The last general is willing to lead the remnants of our Gu tribe warriors who pretended to be fleeing to Zhongling City for Lord Hou, and wait for the last general to wait for you." After infiltrating into Zhongleng City, breaking the city from the inside will surely achieve twice the result with half the effort. After the success is achieved, the city gate will be opened wide to welcome Lord Hou into the city..."

Guan Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Menker with deep eyes, "How sure are you?"

"Lord Hou, Zhongleng City is the territory of the Xizhuo Clan. Sires, the patriarch of the Xizhuo Clan, is very happy. As long as the general expresses his willingness to surrender, he will definitely not be suspicious. This matter will have a [-]% to [-]% chance in the end. It's just..." As he spoke, Menker paused hesitantly, gritted his teeth, and continued worryingly, "The general is afraid that once Lord Hou occupies Zhongling City, Prince Xiao will not be able to sit still." Yes. This is a must to guard against others, Lord Hou, why not report this matter to Prince Xiao after taking down Zhongling City? What does Lord Hou think?"

Guan Yubai smiled slightly, and said unhurriedly: "Then everything depends on the patriarch."

It's done!Menkel was secretly happy, this matter is finally done!

"Master Hou, the general will set off immediately." Menkel clasped his fists impassionedly, and then strode back.

Next, the second wave of commotion broke out in Longmen City. A horn unique to Xiye sounded, and thousands of Xiye soldiers under Menker's command quickly gathered near the city gate.

After more than an hour, these thousands of Xiye "remnant soldiers" who had "changed their appearance" came out from the north gate of Longmen City under the leadership of Menker, and went all the way northward in embarrassment, bypassing the Daye Valley next to Daye Mountain, He rushed to the outside of Zhongleng City that night.

Although the night had fallen, the walls of Zhongling City were illuminated by torches like daylight, and also illuminated the front...

People on the city wall saw Menkor and his party from a distance, and before they got close, someone asked loudly, "Who is here?!"

Menke shouted hastily: "I am Menke, the patriarch of the Mengu clan. Guan Yubai's army broke through Wenxi City, Gonglai City, and Longmen City. Only 3000 of our Mengu clan escaped from us. I I want to see your patriarch Sires, and I have important military information to tell you, welcome me into the city quickly!"

After a while, the heavy city gate slowly opened a gap that was only enough for two people to walk side by side amidst a loud rumbling noise.

A slender young general led a few personal soldiers out of the city to welcome Menkor and his party into the city. Afterwards, Menkor followed the young general to Sires' mansion.

The mansion, which had fallen into a peaceful sleep, became brightly lit with the arrival of Menkor. After a while, a tall and strong middle-aged general rushed to the hall.

In the hall, the other idlers all retreated, leaving only the messy Menkel sitting on a high-backed chair waiting. Seeing the middle-aged general approaching, he immediately stood up and clasped his fists.

Then, both of them looked at each other and smiled.

The middle-aged general patted Menker on the shoulder and laughed loudly: "Brother Menker, you are still young!"

Menkor pursed his lips triumphantly, and replied confidently: "Naturally! I have already done everything according to the king's will, and now Guan Yubai probably thinks that he can easily take down the king without a single soldier." Zhongling City."

"Hahaha..." The middle-aged general laughed loudly, with a hint of disdain in his eyes, "It turns out that the young general is nothing more than that!"

Menkel also sneered: "Perhaps his father was just promoting him back then!"

In the memory of many Xiye people, they have already deified the official language, but they have forgotten that he is just a mortal child.

Thinking of the thin and sickly young man, Menkor's eyes flashed with contempt, and he asked again: "Sires, how are you doing here?"

"Don't worry!" Sires raised his eyebrows triumphantly, "The people from Bray went to Daye Valley yesterday, and by tomorrow morning, Huo Lei should be almost buried! Dongfeng!"

"The Daye Valley is the only way to get here from Longmen City. If Guan Yubai wants to get to Zhongleng City, he must take this road." A gleam flashed in Menker's eyes.

"That's good!" Sires clapped his hands, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a sternness flashed in his sharp eyes.

The Daye Valley stretches for several miles, and the widest part is only enough for three or four soldiers to go side by side. It will be impossible for Guan Yubai's tens of thousands of troops to pass there in less than half an hour... At that time, once they detonate the Huo Lei, Guan Yubai and his [-] Southern Border Army will never escape!

The power of the fire and thunder is as terrifying as an earth dragon turning over. It cannot be stopped by manpower.

This time, Guanyu is dead for nothing!

Sires and Menkor glanced at each other with ambition in their eyes.

If Guan Yubai, who didn't even kill Emperor Dayu, died at their hands, it would really make one's heart itch to think about it.

Once this scheme is successful, not only will the two of them take the lead, but their names will be spread throughout Xiye, and even go down in history!

Thinking of this, Menkel's blood was boiling with excitement.

Now everything just waits for tomorrow!

The night sky above Zhongling City was still pitch black, with few stars on the moon.

This night, Zhongleng City stayed up and down all night... It was not until the early morning when the moonlight gradually faded that someone came to report that the fire and thunder had been deployed.

Immediately, Menkor sent a confidant out of the city and rushed to Daye Valley immediately...

As time passed, the sky gradually turned white. Suddenly, a firework shot straight from the ground into the sky like an arrow, blasting a bright firework in the gray sky, and lighting up the sky above the valley.

This is the signal agreed between Cole and Guan Yubai before leaving, and it means everything is settled.

When the signal is lifted off, Guan Yubai's army will set off from Longmen City.

"The signal has been sent. After more than two hours, Guan Yubai and the Southern Xinjiang army should arrive at Daye Valley." Menkor, who was standing on the city wall, put down his clairvoyance and smiled at Sires beside him. road.

"Then, let's go back home and wait for the good news." Sires turned around first and walked down the stone steps.

Menkor glanced at the Daye Valley again with deep eyes, and then went down the city wall.

After the two returned to the mansion, they sat in the hall drinking tea and waiting for the news. They seemed to be leisurely, but their hearts were restless.

The first day rose higher and higher, and the sky became brighter and brighter. Soldiers in the mansion came in and out, and people came to report from time to time:

"Patriarch, Guan Yubai's army has set out from Longmen City at Chenshi!"

"Patriarch, Guan Yubai's army arrived at Yizhong River at Sishi, forty miles away from Daye Valley!"

"..."

"Patriarch, Guan Yubai's army should be entering Daye Valley soon!"

When hearing this report, both Sires and Menkel's eyes lit up, and they almost couldn't wait to stand up at the same time.

Sires greeted with a smile: "Brother Menkel, let's go, we should go to a good show."

At this moment, the sun outside has risen to the middle, and the surroundings are bright.

The two patriarchs strode out of the mansion, got on their horses, and galloped towards the south gate.

Before they reached the city gate, they felt the ground tremble slightly. Sires stopped his horse first, looked down, and saw the dust on the ground flying with the vibration of the ground. Hurry up, I heard a muffled thunder coming from the sky, the sky-shaking roar came continuously and mightily, even the surrounding houses seemed to be shaking...

Sires and Menkor exchanged a glance, they both knew that it wasn't the earth dragon turning over, it wasn't the rolling thunder, but the fire and thunder in Daye Valley exploded, causing an earthquake!

"Great, Huo Lei was detonated!" Menker clapped his hands and laughed happily, "This Huo Lei really deserves its reputation! Even if the earth dragon of Tingwei City turned over and dumped half of the houses in the city two years ago, it would not This kind of power!" Finally he lived up to the time he spent begging for mercy at that official!

Sires raised his head and laughed loudly: "That's natural! This is a fire mine used to open mines, and its power has doubled, even if it is easy to razed a city to the ground. This time, the official language died in vain. deal!"

With that said, Sires looked at Menkor, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Menkor, this time you have made a great contribution!"

"Thank you." Menkel cupped his fists and said politely, "If it wasn't for my brother's fire and thunder, it wouldn't have happened."

At this time, a Xiye soldier hurried over and reported to Sires: "Patriarch, the [-] troops have gathered for orders."

Sires responded, and asked proudly: "Brother Menkel, do you want to go with me to wipe out the remnants of southern Xinjiang?"

"Naturally!" Menkel hurriedly said, followed by a sneer, "Maybe I will be 'fortunate' to collect the body of the officer and junior general! What do you think if you dedicate his whole body to the king?"

When he said this, Sires was also moved. The king hated the official family the most in his life. If they can offer Guan Yubai's body, then their errand this time will be considered perfect!

Sires nodded and agreed, "Okay! Bro Menkol, today we will personally lead the troops to deal with the remnants of the Southern Xinjiang army!"

The two exchanged a look, both in high spirits.

The military order was passed down quickly, with the blare of horns and the rumble of war drums, the [-] Xiye army rushed out from the gate of Zhongleng City.

Wherever [-] soldiers passed by, flags were flying and smoke was billowing.

After traveling for more than 20 miles, I saw the smog between the valleys in front of me, like a large gray fog, and I could only vaguely see the mountain peaks on both sides looming in the "grey fog"...

The closer to the ground, the thicker the "fog" formed by the dust. Wherever the eyes can see, there is nothing but dust...

Seeing that the Daye Valley looked completely different from the one he passed yesterday, Menkel felt that his mood became more and more enjoyable. Not only did he not slow down his horse, but he couldn't wait to throw himself into the embrace of "Gray Fog". The army followed closely behind.

The ground of the valley is full of large and small rocks and gravel, which is not conducive to horses walking.The army immediately abandoned their horses and walked slowly among the dust and mist... The deeper the valley, the thicker the surrounding dust and mist, and the smell of smoke and gunpowder, which is the trace left by the explosion of fire and thunder...

But Menkel's heart skipped a beat, and he vaguely felt that something was wrong, so he subconsciously slowed down the horse.

"Brother Menkor..."

Sires looked at Menkor suspiciously. Before Menkor could speak, he heard the sound of "咻咻咻" piercing the air from all directions, and the black iron arrows pierced through the dust and fog like a dense swarm of hornets and shot at them. Come.

"what!"

Immediately afterwards, there were bursts of screams coming from behind one after another, as well as the sound of soldiers falling to the ground, and the sound of iron arrows hitting the shield... All kinds of sounds mixed together, and the valley suddenly became chaotic!

Menkor's face sank like water. At this moment, he already knew that something was wrong. There was no smell of blood around here.

The fire and thunder detonated, and the boulder rolled down. If the Southern Border Army had really fallen into the trap, then even if the corpses were not at the entrance of the valley, they should have smelled a strong smell of blood coming with the wind.

However, it's too late!

The sound of iron arrows piercing the air was endless, and more and more Xiye soldiers fell beside Sires and Menkor, and the smell of blood around them became stronger and stronger, mixing with the smell of gunpowder. , creating a nasty smell.

Menkel hastily shouted: "It's been tricked! Retreat quickly! Everyone retreat to Zhongleng City!"

Next, the valley was in chaos, surrounded by flying dust, and he couldn't see where the iron arrows were coming from, so he could only blindly raise his shield to block the iron arrows flying in all directions.

This is a carnage!

The Xiye army has absolutely no power to counterattack, let alone counterattack, all they can do is to block, to escape, to leave this valley as soon as possible, and escape to a place with a wider field of vision...

In the chaos, the Xiye Army finally withdrew from the valley half an hour later, but thousands of iron arrows were still coming from behind...

The two patriarchs fled all the way with less than [-] remaining soldiers, even if they left the range of the iron arrow, they did not dare to relax.

They must return to Zhongling City as soon as possible, and they must not let the Southern Border Army catch up!

They have to defend Zhongleng City, otherwise they will suffer a complete defeat!

In this urgent mood, Sires and Menkor galloped ahead at a gallop, only thinking, hurry up!Hurry up!

At some point in time, the sun slanted westward, and the city walls of Zhongleng City appeared far away on the horizon.

Sires and Menkor loosened their faces slightly, clamped the horse's belly, and the whip lashed the horse hard. The horse's hooves galloped faster, followed by a group of messy cavalry, followed by a large army. Infantry, the queue has long been disturbed...

However, when they came to a place less than one mile away from Zhongleng City, Sires was the first to discover something was wrong.

He quickly reined in the horse rope, and the brown horse under his crotch raised its front hooves high amidst a burst of neighing. Sires stared blankly at the top of the city wall, and blurted out: "No! This is not my banner, This is not the banner of my Xizhuo clan!"

The banner of his Xizhuo tribe is not silver-white!

Menkel's eyes were wide open, and he suddenly thought of something.

"Impossible... This is absolutely impossible." Menkor murmured, his hands almost trembling, took out a clairvoyance from his arms, and looked at the silver-white banner flying on the city wall.

On the banner, the word "Official" flying like a dragon and a flying phoenix suddenly reflected into his pupils through clairvoyance.

"Guan Yubai...it's really Guan Yubai!"

Menkel was chanting in dismay, his eyes still looking at the word "official" on the banner, feeling as if he was in an endless nightmare.

At this moment, a majestic shout came from the direction of the city wall ahead:

"Thank you, King Xiye, for sending him to Zhongleng City, but we are so disrespectful!"

Thousands, no, maybe tens of thousands of voices overlapped together, shouting the same sentence repeatedly, louder and louder, like a curtain of waterfalls flying down three thousand feet, shaking people in a radius of several miles , shocking people dizzy, suddenly like a dream.

These words pierced like thousands of steel needles, and Menkel felt a mouthful of old blood constricted in his chest, and his throat felt sweet.

"How is this possible?!" His voice became hoarse unconsciously, and he gritted his teeth.

However, the facts were cruelly placed in front of them.

They got it!

It turned out that the trap in Daye Valley was just a cover-up by Guan Yubai. His real purpose was to take advantage of the emptiness of Zhongling City and take it down with one fell swoop.

Neither Menkel nor Sires could figure it out. It's all right for Guan Yubai to see through their tricks of fire and thunder, but how did his army get around Zhongleng City? !

How did Guan Yubai conquer Zhongling City in less than a day? !

Although they took away [-] troops, Zhongling City still has [-] troops, and Zhongling City is easy to defend and difficult to attack...

However, they never got an answer again.

They didn't even have time to say "withdraw", and they saw the black iron arrows symbolizing death shooting towards them imperviously...

Menkel's eyes widened to the extreme, with unwillingness written in his eyes.

Why is this happening?

Could it be that Guan Yubai really has divine help? !

Is he going to be buried here today?

No, he is not reconciled!

Menkor grabbed a nearby soldier and tried to use him as a shield, but it was too late.

"Whoa..."

Several iron arrows arrived in an instant, and shot through his head, neck, and chest almost at the same time...

In the blink of an eye, Menkor turned into a hedgehog full of iron arrows, and fell off the horse straightly, his bloodshot eyes stared wide open, and he couldn't stand his eyes!

Menkor, who was at the forefront of the queue, was dead, and Sirius was also dead, but those iron arrows did not stop because of this, they continued to fall like a torrential rain, and the iron arrows were dyed in the golden red afterglow of the setting sun. The luster of blood...

Murderous intent filled the air!
