The ruthless prince and the enchanting concubine

Chapter 291
However, the rain seemed to give Nangong Jin enough face. Two days before that, the gloomy sky gave him an obvious warning.

After waking up early in the morning, the world seems to have completely changed. There is no soft sunshine, and no blue sky with white clouds. What you see is just a hazy piece, and the huge rain curtain seems to cover all the scenery.

Countless soldiers poked their heads out of the tents they set up last night, looking at the wonderful things. The minds of the soldiers were very different from Nangong Jin's, and they never felt the slightest panic or panic because of the unexpected heavy rain. Frustrated, everyone knows that this is a rare opportunity to stop the army for rectification.

It was Si time, but there was no movement in the army. Numerous large and small puddles formed on the empty camp, like small lakes. Drops of rainwater fell inside, causing ripples on the entire lake in an instant.

The curtains of the handsome tent were high, Nangong Jin stood aside with frowning, staring at the water vapor between the sky and the earth, countless raindrops wet his combat boots and soaked his silver robe, however, he did not feel any harm. aware.

"Annoying rainy day..." Nangong Jin said silently, clenching her back molars, as if she was speaking to her enemy.

He was eager to send troops to Beiyuan. According to the plan, the nearly one-month journey was already enough to make him anxious, but the sudden heavy rain made him even more anxious. He didn't know how long the date of the march would be postponed.

"My lord... my lord!" Amidst the sound of the rain, Nangong Jin faintly heard a cry, and cast her gaze into the infinitely hazy rain curtain, only to see the lieutenant general covering his head with his pocket, running towards him in embarrassment.

When the deputy general came in front of Nangong Jin, he looked like a drowned rat, which was ridiculous.The brim of the helmet was sticking wet to the side of the helmet, and he seemed to have just been fished out of the water.

"My lord, look, just as the next official said, the rain came as soon as it was said, and it seemed that it would not stop for a while, and the soldiers were so watered that they dared not even come out of the tents. It seems that today is a rainy day." I can't march anymore." The lieutenant general said while shaking the armor on his body, and countless water droplets splashed.

Nangong Jin was already in a depressed mood, but when he heard the words of the lieutenant general, he became even more anxious. He glared at the lieutenant general, threw his robe and walked into the tent.

There were noisy sounds and rattling noises in the huge tent, and countless raindrops hit it, as if they were attacking mercilessly. The gaps in the roof of the tent had also been raining continuously.

Nangong Jin suddenly sat behind the table, punched the table, and let out a long sigh.

The lieutenant general could see clearly, and seemed to hesitate to speak.

"My lord, my lord, according to my officer, I may not be able to move forward today. The soldiers are still waiting for your order. Are you going to send the order..." Before he could finish speaking, the deputy general stopped abruptly. Nangong Jin's chilling gaze left him speechless.

"Don't talk about it, the king already knows. You pass on the order to let the soldiers rest for two hours to see if the rain is decreasing. Once the rain decreases, start the troops immediately. After two hours , No matter what the weather is, pack it up for me and move forward!" Nangong Jin said coldly, and now it seems that this is the biggest concession for him, he who is eager to reach Beiyuan, two hours Also do not want to lose.

"This... my lord, the rain is so heavy, I'm afraid the soldiers will not be able to bear it if they march by force." The lieutenant general was still trying to persuade him.

"Retire, and follow what the king said. Anyone who refuses to listen will be dealt with by military law!" Nangong Jin rejected the deputy general's request again.

The deputy general was well aware of Nangong Jin's temper, so he didn't want to say much, so he saluted silently, turned around and retreated.

"..." Nangong Jin sighed again, closed his eyes, and put his hands on his forehead.

Why is the sky against him like this? If this continues, when will we be able to reach Beiyuan Kingdom...

The sky seemed to have no scruples about Nangong Jin at all. The two hours passed in a blink of an eye, but the rain did not mean to decrease in the slightest. On the contrary, it became tighter and tighter, as if deliberately opposing Nangong Jin.

Seeing the heavier and heavier rain, the soldiers felt more at ease. It seemed that today would never be possible. The army immediately packed up the camp and set off as usual.

Who would dare not listen to the words of the chief general?
The silver dragon set off again, the speed obviously slowed down a lot, the dragon was in the water, without the slightest hint of excitement, on the contrary, it was just an unprecedented downturn.

Nangong Jin sat on the horseback and walked forward in the rain. The rain seemed to be more violent, and the BMW under his crotch kept shaking his head, as if complaining to him.

In the long queue, the soldiers complained one by one, wondering why King Jing'an, who was very kind to them in the past, suddenly changed his appearance. Although everyone was full of complaints, they couldn't change the status quo.

According to the usual speed, an army of [-] troops can cover a distance of ten miles in an hour, but now, an hour has passed, and from the time of departure to the present, they have not even traveled two miles.

The deputy general came to Nangong Jin's horse again, wiped the rain off his face, and said helplessly.

"My lord, you have also seen that the soldiers have suffered too much. I estimate that if we go on like this, by the end of the day, there will be many sick people in the army, and at least [-]% of the combat power will be lost. The day is still the same, but the combat effectiveness of our army will drop by at least half when we reach the border town of Beiyuan Kingdom!"

Nangong Jin could hear it clearly, and there seemed to be a faint unbearable feeling in her heart...

Even though he was anxious to go to Beiyuan Country and see Ning Ningyan, even though he could suffer like this alone, would the soldiers under him really have to suffer like this with him?
Nangong Jin reined in the silk rein and looked back. The soldiers behind them looked unhappy. They were already drowned, stepping on the muddy road with one foot deep and the other shallow. It looked very heartbreaking. .

The heavy rain was still torrential, which seemed to make Nangong Jin's vision slightly blurred...

Perhaps, he really shouldn't do this, even after the rain stops, he will order the army to travel day and night to make up for the lost time?
Nangong Jin turned her head again and stared at the north. Between the sky and the earth, there was a daze, and she couldn't see how far away.

Yan'er, I really can't procrastinate like this. I have had enough of these days, but... Even if I want to go to your side in one step, who knows the difficulty I am in at this moment?

Yan'er, I am sorry for you, you have to wait a few more days...

Nangong Jin gritted her teeth and whispered instructions to the lieutenant general.

"Forget it, send the order to go down, tell the sergeants to stop, and wait until the rain stops completely before leaving."

Hearing this, the deputy general looked like he was about to receive an amnesty, and his face beamed with joy, "Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness! Your Majesty, let me pass the order!" After finishing speaking, the deputy general urged his horse to walk towards the brigade behind him.

Looking at the shadow of the deputy general, Nangong Jin felt such a contradiction in her heart. She didn't know whether she was relieved a little or became more upset.

The news of camping quickly spread throughout the army, and all the soldiers finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that King Jing'an had finally discovered his conscience.

Counting it, the army hadn't even traveled ten miles in the rain.

The torrential rain fell for a whole day, and when it got dark, it still didn't seem to be weakening in the slightest. The barracks was dark, without the usual piles of torches, which seemed lifeless.

Nangong Jin sat alone in the big tent, the noisy rain could be heard clearly in his ears, his eyes were blurred, staring blankly at the little light on the table.

The figure of Ning Ningyan still lingers in his mind, and this feeling only becomes stronger.In his whole life, Nangong Jin didn't believe in anything, he was so proud of the world, he only believed in his own power, only believed in his own rights, but at this moment, he couldn't help but prayed to the sky, hoping that tomorrow the rain would be enough Stop, hope that tomorrow will be sunny.

Only in this way can he lead the army to Beiyuan Kingdom sooner, and also be able to take back his sweetheart sooner...

The sky is so disappointing, Nangong Jin's prayers did not have the slightest effect, the next day, it was still pouring rain, and the world was still in the depressing endless haze.

……

The annoying heavy rain lasted intermittently for about half a month. During this time, the army stopped and stopped, and had been helplessly delaying the schedule. Nangong Jin seemed to be unable to bear it any longer.

It was at this time that the bad weather that lasted for half a month finally came to an end, and the blue sky once again appeared in front of everyone.

As soon as the rain stopped, Nangong Jin ordered an expedited march to make up for the delayed journey.Every day in the future, every day.

After walking for another 20 days or so, the long journey finally came to an end, and the outermost border town of Beiyuan Country had loomed in front of Nangong Jin.

Until this moment, Nangong Jin's fiery and anxious heart gradually calmed down. Even so, he was still deeply unwilling. If it wasn't for the heavy rain back then, I am afraid that this city is already in his pocket now. thing.

Just ten miles outside Beiyuan City, Nangong Jin ordered the final camp to be set up and let the soldiers rest for the last two days. Two days later, they began to attack.Now, his anxious heart can no longer bear it. If he continues to delay like this, he might really go crazy because he is eager to see Ning Yan.

The siege is imminent.However, Nangong Jin is also so clear in his heart that even if he successfully breaks through the city, there are still many battles waiting for him in the future. The distance between the border city and Zichang, the capital of Beiyuan Kingdom, is still very far, and he does not know when he will be able to reach it.

If you want to see Ning Ningyan, all the ordeals seem to be only half over...
