Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1051 Coming for them!

Accompanied by Mu Xian's screams, Yuwen Ye rode his horse and swooped down the hillside like an arrow from a bow. Shentu Tai and others had not experienced what happened in the past few days, and they were still a little dazed at this time. But when they heard Mu Xian's painful wails in their ears, they immediately understood.

Shentutai shouted, "Your Highness!"

At the same time, he squeezed his horse's belly hard and spurred it to catch up.

Shan Tong'er, Nie Chong and the others did not dare to neglect and followed closely on horseback. Shan Tong'er even turned back and shouted to Mu Xian, who was so angry that his eyes turned black, "Brother Mu Xian, hurry up and catch up."

Hearing the child's clear voice, Mu Xian could only swallow his anger and grievance, gritted his teeth, and rode his horse to follow.

The group of people galloped across the land at a very fast speed.

About half an hour later, they approached the towering Hulao Pass again, but this time Yuwen Ye stopped farther away than he had stopped to watch three days ago. It was only a hundred feet away from the gate of Hulao Pass, and they could even see the flags on the city wall fluttering in the wind. Although he had just experienced a shock, it did not mean that Mu Xian could calmly accept what was going to happen next. He gripped the reins tightly, his palms full of cold sweat, and subconsciously lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, we are too close!"

After hearing his words, Yuwen Ye obeyed and did not move forward, but stood at the front of the team.

In the air, there was the fishy smell of water and earth emanating from the turbulent waves of the Yellow River. The two smells mixed together were very heavy, coupled with the sound of waves like the roar of a tiger, all of which gave people a feeling of uneasiness.

It seems like something is going to happen.

Seeing Yuwen Ye looking ahead quietly, Mu Xian's heart began to beat uncomfortably. He said in a more serious tone, "Your Highness, you are too close!"

Yuwen Ye's shoulders moved slightly, as if he was about to turn around to look at him, but at this moment, Nie Chong, who was following behind him, suddenly spurred his horse and took two steps forward.

Compared to the impulsive and active Shan Tong'er and the nagging Mu Xian, Nie Chong should be the most obedient one around Yuwen Ye. He almost never speaks or takes the initiative to do anything, but he can always do it properly as long as it is given to him. But at this moment, he suddenly moved forward and turned his head to the side, obviously listening to something.

However, with the wind howling and the Yellow River roaring, what could he hear, no matter how sharp his ears were?

Everyone looked at him subconsciously.

After a moment of silence, Nie Chong suddenly turned to Yuwen Ye and said, "Your Highness, they are coming out to arrest you!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Yuwen Ye was not at all panicked, only a gleam of light flashed in his cold eyes.

He said calmly, "Really?"

Nie Chong lowered his voice and said, "They seem to be guessing whether the person who came is the King of Qin, but——"

Even as they were talking, there was suddenly some noise and vibration in the oncoming wind. Everyone subconsciously raised their heads and looked forward. Sure enough, they saw that the gate of Hulao Pass opened quickly and a cavalry ran out.

Oops!

Seeing this scene, Mu Xian's heart sank. Not long after returning to the camp that day, Yuwen Ye told him how to deal with the cautious Shan Shiyu, because Hulao Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and they came from a long way and needed to fight quickly, so they had to make the other side give up his caution. To make the other side send troops easily, there was only one condition - to lure him with benefits.

And the benefit is to capture or kill His Royal Highness the King of Qin of the Great Sheng Dynasty!

Such a great achievement, and it was accomplished in one battle, could almost once and for all resolve the war in which the Great Sheng Dynasty sent troops to attack the Eastern Capital - because anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Great Sheng Dynasty had hardly won a single battle in the early stages of this time, and it was only after Yuwen Ye arrived that they quickly captured most of the eight passes in Luoyang and disintegrated Liang Shide's defenses around the Eastern Capital.

At this time, Yuwen Ye not only had military achievements, but also became a person who stabilized the morale of the army.

Without him, the army's morale will be unstable and it will be defeated without fighting.

Even more so, if the Dasheng Dynasty lost Yuwen Ye, half of its military strength would have collapsed. There is almost no doubt that Yuwen Yuan would never march out of Tongguan again.

Therefore, Yuwen Ye deliberately dropped his name tag during the "pursuit" three days ago, just to let the other party know that their enemy, the dignified general Yuwen Ye, escaped from their sword while they were hesitating.

In the past few days, not only Yuwen Ye was worried about the safety of the Princess of Qin, but Mu Xian was almost certain that the people in Hulao Pass, especially Shan Shiyu and his generals, would also regret losing such a good opportunity.

In this case, when the opportunity appears again, they will never give up easily!
And the situation at the moment was indeed like that. As soon as the cavalry left the city, they quickly deployed their battle formation. Three days ago, the dozen of them facing the enemy's team of two or three hundred people was already a huge disparity. But this time, the dark mass of cavalry appeared before their eyes like a huge dark cloud, with at least thousands of people!

Moreover, the other party did not hesitate at all, nor did they try to send troops as they did three days ago. As soon as they left the city, they galloped on their horses and rushed towards them like an arrow!

It's aimed at them!

At this moment, Mu Xian's eyes turned red, and he only regretted his naivety - Yuwen Ye had promised him before that he would not take risks easily again, and he really believed him; besides, even if he wanted to use the "King of Qin" to hook the other party's fish, he didn't have to let him do it himself. Send a soldier with a similar body shape to him, even if it was Mu Xian himself, pretending to be a general and appearing in front of Hulao Pass, Shan Shiyu and the others would be fooled.

Who knew that Yuwen Ye would take part in the battle himself!

Who would have known that His Royal Highness the King of Qin would lie and go back on his word in front of them? Now the army is right in front of them and they are in danger again!

Beads of sweat rolled down Mu Xian's forehead, but it was too late to complain. He didn't even have time to say anything to Yuwen Ye. He just shouted to Shentu Tai and others, "Quick, protect His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin!"

Shentu Tai's brows also furrowed.

But he did not act immediately because Yuwen Ye had not spoken yet.

He spoke, also to Nie Chong: "Who is the leader of the troops?"

Nie Chong narrowed his eyes slightly. At this time, the wind was already mixed with chaotic voices and horse neighs. Coupled with the roaring Yellow River next to them, they had to prick up their ears to listen even to their own words. However, Nie Chong only listened for a moment and immediately said, "Their guard commander has come out in person!"

"...!"

When Yuwen Ye heard this, his eyes immediately lit up!

I'm sorry that I was delayed today because I had to change the medicine. I finished writing after midnight. Please forgive me.
