The farm girl has a field and is super powerful

Chapter 856

The northernmost Tianmen Pass on New Year's Eve.

The general guarding Tianmen Pass in the north is a veteran of Qi State, named Hu Yan, 35 years old this year.

He was originally a military officer of a big family in the capital, but his family was overwhelmed, so he found a loose job in the capital.

Later, because of the war in the Daqi Kingdom, he happened to have some troubles with his family, so he took this opportunity to go to the front line because of his blunt temper.

When he first arrived at the front line, he was severely stimulated by the battlefield on the front line. Having grown up in a honeypot, he was so scared that he couldn't help himself. It was only then that he felt the horror of the battlefield and the insignificance of his personal ability.

Fortunately, he was lucky back then, and was in the same team as Qi Heng, who is now His Majesty.

It was Qi Heng who rescued him at the critical moment, and after returning to the barracks, Qi Heng scolded him severely, and it was only after the people on the side persuaded him that Qi Heng calmed down.

With such a simple back and forth, he actually fell ill.

It is really ridiculous that without killing an enemy, without being severely punished, he gets sick.

While recuperating in the military medical camp, he saw many wounded soldiers coming in and out, and he talked to those people.

Some people killed five enemy troops, some killed three enemy troops, and some killed more than ten enemies in total.

They are so desperate, just to protect their own back, to make the family members live better.

From that time on, Hu Yan gritted his teeth and made up his mind that he would also become a soldier.

After several life-and-death battles, Hu Yan's ability is extremely outstanding.

He became the most changed person in the barracks, killed the most enemies, and was the most heroic person.

After the enemy was driven away, the barracks began to reward military merits according to the rules.

Originally, a person of Hu Yan's family background should return to Beijing to accept the reward, but unexpectedly, he chose to stay.

He is willing to stay at the border, and he wants to guard the people-protecting checkpoint at the border and protect the people of the Great Qi Kingdom behind him.

It took him five years to go from being a young general to defending the city, and he also heard about various changes in the capital bit by bit.

After hearing the news that the west side was being invaded again and again, he subconsciously told his men to guard the border city and inquire about the news in time.

Put an end to the possibility of rebellion in the north after being swayed by others.

At the same time, he also asked people to pay attention to the west side in time. If there was any change there, he would send troops to support it as soon as possible.

On New Year's Eve, because there are express regulations among countries not to go to war on New Year's Eve, the attitudes of the soldiers guarding the city also have a not-so-obvious burnout.

Hu Yan declined the lieutenant general's kindness to invite him to have a drink, and he stood at the highest point of Tianmen Pass and looked into the distance in soft armor and fashion.

It's New Year's Eve, and I don't know if the family is safe, whether the capital behind me is safe, or how Your Majesty is doing now.

While his thoughts were rushing, his eyes that glanced into the distance suddenly focused, and his original idle demeanor instantly became serious and restrained.

Something is wrong, there seems to be movement ahead.

"Go, let me invite Vice General Xu." Hu Yan gave an order, and the young general standing guard saluted and ran away quickly.

Not long after, I saw Deputy General Xu who had just left standing in front of him holding his own weapon in his hand.

"What's the matter, General?"

"Vice General Xu, look over there."

"General, could it be that there is an enemy attack? This is New Year's Eve, they are crazy!" After glancing at the flickering lights in the distance, Deputy General Xu's expression froze.

"You lead people to guard the city, order people to pour water on the city walls, strengthen patrols inside and outside the city, and send out spies to investigate in many ways."

"Yes." Vice General Xu nodded.

It is freezing cold today, and the cold at the border is even more bitterly cold.

If the city wall is poured with water, the city wall will be frozen soon, which will increase the difficulty for the enemy to attack the city.

"I'll take someone over there to have a look."

"General, are you going there in person?" Deputy General Xu looked puzzled.

"Well, I'll go." Hu Yan strode towards his tent.

After changing his clothes very quickly, holding his own weapon, Hu Yan led the troops out of the main city gate of the border after pointing out the two teams of troops.

His eyesight and hearing have always been very good, and after leaving the city gate, he patted his horse and led the people to run in that direction.

After running for less than a quarter of an hour, he matched up with the team he had seen before.

Hu Yan, who was the leader sitting on the horse, looked at the person in front of him coldly and said.

"You people from Qingqiu country don't stay in your own territory on New Year's Eve, why come to our Daqi country to fool around? Do you want to provoke?"

"Go!" The people on the other side didn't pay much attention to them at all, and surrounded them with a gesture.

Hu Yan sneered when he saw this, and unceremoniously took the lead in fighting.

Qingqiu country is a small country located in the north of Daqi. In the past, they were closed to the outside world, and they basically didn't interact with Daqi, and they didn't take the initiative to provoke.

It is said that half a year ago, the leader of Qingqiu Kingdom passed away, and the Great Emperor Ji of Qingqiu Kingdom ascended the throne as the new king.

It is extremely rare for a woman to be the king of a country, so even if Qingqiu is secluded, there will be news from time to time.

The Qingqiu Kingdom has been in chaos for a long time, but it is said that under the strong tactics of the female ruler, the originally fragmented Qingqiu Kingdom was brought together in just half a year.

There is no voice of opposition in Qingqiu, and the court has become routine.

And under the means of that female country leader, Qingqiu country began to have a new development.

Could it be that these people in front of you were sent by the new ruler of Qingqiu Kingdom to demonstrate on purpose?

Thinking of this, Hu Yan's strikes were even more fierce and deadly.

Others have come to provoke him, so naturally he will not be polite.

His more than ten years of career in Bianguan has already trained him to be a martial artist.

Obviously, the other party never expected that Hu Yan and others who were chasing after him had such strong strength.

After some fighting, seeing more and more people fell to the ground, the person opposite Hu Yan said in a panic, "Slow down!"

"Bring people up!"

Soon, two soldiers walked over from behind, pressing down two civilians dressed in the costumes of the Great Qi Kingdom.

"What do you mean?" Hu Yan stared at him with a livid face.

"Heh, isn't your Great Qi Kingdom always known for loving its people? Why, are you going to continue in disregard of their lives?" The man smiled coldly.

"What do you want to do?" Hu Yan asked coldly.

"Let us go!"

"General, if we just let them go like this, what will happen to the face of our Daqi border guards?" The person beside him asked.

"Is face more important than life?" Hu Yan glanced at the speaker.

The anger in his heart is no less than that of the people next to him, but so what?
It was impossible for him to watch the two weak and helpless people who were tied up, their eyes full of frightened people being killed in front of him.

"Retreat!" After Hu Yan gave the order, the soldiers surrounding the enemy immediately retreated behind him.

"The Daqi Kingdom is really following the rules, heh, when we return to the Qingqiu land safely, we will naturally let these two people go."

After the enemy leader finished speaking, he turned around and left with the remaining seven or eight young generals and the two kidnapped Daqi civilians.

Seeing their backs gradually move away, Hu Yan with an indifferent face said lightly.

"Up arrow."

"Yes."

In just a few breaths, seven soldiers with bows and arrows stood up from behind.

"Remember, there is only one chance, take it well."

After Hu Yan finished speaking, the seven people nodded in unison.

After flattering and chasing for a while, several people drew their bows fully and aimed at those who provoked them and then threatened them to leave.

"put."

When Hu Yan gave his name, the eight arrows flew out almost at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, there was a painful whimper from ahead.

When Hu Yan and others slapped their horses over, except for the two strict civilians whose mouths were covered and tied up, they were all alive, and the others were all killed by an arrow.

"Untie them and take them back first."

"The bodies of those people were dragged back to General Ben and fed to the dogs."

"Yes."

After returning to the main city of Tianmenguan, Hu Yan was not idle, and ordered people to check the bodies of those sneak attackers for any abnormalities.

At the same time, he had the two bound people untied and brought before him.

Perhaps it was because of too many frights that one of the two had already passed out.

There was no other way, Hu Yan had no choice but to meet another civilian who was fine for the time being.

Well, it was a woman, technically speaking, a woman who didn't look like she was 30 years old.

"Who are you? Why were you tied up by those people? Do you know who they are?"

Li Shi, who was kneeling on the ground, suppressed the fear in his heart, rubbed his frozen hands again, gritted his teeth, and tried not to tremble before speaking.

"My lord, the woman is from Stone Village. She originally planned to go to the mountains, but who knows..."

After Hu Yan's various questions and the woman's explanation, he quickly understood the general situation of the matter.

This woman is a widow in Shitou Village, surnamed Li, who opened a small shop for people to buy and sell in the village.

Before New Year's Eve, it was said that Shitou Village didn't seem to be peaceful. Some gangsters broke into the village in the dark to try to make trouble, but they were arrested by the people left by the Bai family in their village and a person named Duan Yuqi.

Those villains were sent to the government, and the people in the government also paid attention to the safety of the nearby villages.

Mrs. Li didn't know what happened to those villains, but their village returned to stability in the next few days.

Only then did she relax slightly, and planned to go up the mountain alone with a basket on her shoulders.

However, just because he went up the mountain, he was suddenly caught and tied up by this vicious group of people, and he also experienced the critical moment of life and death just now.

She always felt that the people who captured her seemed to be the same as the gangsters who attacked the village before.

"The general knows, you take a rest first, the general will send you back later."

Hu Yan poured Li Shi a cup of hot water and handed it to her, then turned and walked out of the tent.

Not long after, Deputy General Xu came over and said, "General, after checking, these people are all dressed in Qingqiu country costumes, and the leader also has Qingqiu country's symbol token on him."

Qingqiu Kingdom has long regarded the fox as its guardian animal, and their uniforms and soldiers' uniforms all have fox logos, including some keepsakes with similar logos.

"I really didn't expect that the newly-appointed female head of Qingqiu Kingdom would act in such a despicable way." Vice General Xu said angrily.

"The matter hasn't been clarified yet, so it's too early to draw this conclusion." Hu Yan said.

For some reason, he always felt weird, as if things were not as simple as they appeared on the surface.

Since the new ruler of Qingqiu Kingdom can take care of the country within half a year, it can be seen that she is a person with means and a city.

There is no reason for such a person to send a team of people to the border of Daqi State to provoke on New Year's Eve.

Not to mention that Qingqiu Kingdom has always been closed to the outside world, why did it come out at the moment when Daqi was fighting against the tortoiseshell?
The west of Daqi is being attacked, who can guarantee that the harassment in the north is not just a deliberate means by the tortoiseshell people to confuse their sight?

Of course, these are just guesswork.

He had to send people to find out the whereabouts of those villains Li said as soon as possible, and at the same time let people inquire about the situation in Qingqiu country.

At such a critical juncture, it is even more prudent to act cautiously.
