Ghost doctor: Princess please come to the throne

Chapter 495 Trapped in the Wujiang River
Chapter 495: Trapped in Wujiang River
Outside Wushan Mountain, Wujiang River.

In the early morning, the water mist on the surface of the river lingers, like a ghostly shadow, baring its teeth and claws.

The flames of war spread down along the winding river, covering the entire Quewu Mountain, lingering.

At this time, it was Chen Shi, but the fog filled the air, and the vision was not very clear. In a mountain near the river, there was nothing unusual from a distance, but only when you got closer, you could see that there were thousands of soldiers and horses lying dormant. in.

This team of soldiers and horses is well-equipped and well-disciplined, but it is not difficult to find that they are a little tired, and many soldiers have been injured.

On the edge of the army, on a high ground, stood a man, dressed in black armor, wrapped in a slender and tall body, his red lips were stained with bloodlust, and his ice blue pupils slowly scanned the surroundings.

His thin lips were tightly pursed, his exquisite face was a little dignified, and his low and hoarse voice was gentle, "Is there any news from the queen."

Leng Feng behind shook his head, and replied in a deep voice, "After the lord went out to sea, he lost contact. In the past few months, no news has been sent back, and the boats we sent out to search have all returned in vain. "

Lord, where have you been?
Even if people don't come back, at least they have to send a message, right?

There is no news at all, is it because you don't plan to come back, or did you encounter some danger?
Bei Chenyan took a deep breath, his brows were cold, and he didn't say anything.

"emperor."

Someone came from behind.

Bei Chenyan looked back.

The cold eyes made Ma Long tremble, he clasped his hands together, not daring to talk nonsense, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the spies came to report that there was an army of the Xilan Dynasty ten miles away in the northwest, and ten miles away in the southeast. The army of the Longxiang Dynasty is also approaching, and the subordinates estimate that they want to form another encirclement."

Bei Chenyan looked back, then glanced at the surrounding terrain again, "Call the generals."

A few simple and clear words, straight to the ice, and walked away after speaking.

Ma Long looked at Leng Feng with a look of horror: What's the matter?
The emperor seems to be in a bad mood...

Moreover, this emotion is certainly not due to the current predicament.

After marching abroad for so many years, there were even more difficult situations, and the emperor did not change his expression.

As an old man who has been with Bei Chenyan all year round, he can naturally feel Bei Chenyan's emotions.

Leng Feng shrugged, gave the past a very helpless look, and opened his mouth silently: What else can I do?

Malone immediately understood, it was also a headache, but what can they do, as long as the empress does not come back for a day, they will not have a good day, the most important thing is the emperor, I am afraid that there is always a stalk in my heart, let's make it through.

The emperor must feel uncomfortable, he knows.

Not to mention the emperor, he really couldn't figure out why, the empress must leave, you said it's fine to leave, but she still went with that one, oh yes, Nalan Xueyi and his party.

How can this not be misunderstood?

It's hard not to let people think about it too much!

Leng Feng and Ma Long looked at each other and forced out the same wry smile.

In the center of the camp, the generals circled around, all of them solemn and serious.

Wei Qi held a wooden stick and made gestures on the sand, while describing the grim situation, "Now the army of the Xilan Dynasty has reached ten miles to the northwest, which is a mountainous area. It only takes two weeks to search here. Three days."

He waved his hand, pointed to the other side, and tapped the ground, "The army of the Longxiang Dynasty came from the southeast. The terrain is flat, and it may not take that long, so my subordinates estimate that it will take less than three days. Xiang Xiang two armies, will form a situation of encirclement."

Wei Qi nodded to the central position, "Your Majesty, we must find a way to leave this place as soon as possible, otherwise, we will become turtles in the urn."

"However, with such a terrain, where can we retreat?" Ma Long frowned, "The southwest is the Wujiang River, and it is the place where the current is the most turbulent. It is impossible to pass boats and people. The northeast is snow-capped mountains, which is even more difficult to pass. the moat."

Looking at the sand under his feet, Bei Chenyan fell into deep thought.

"Xilan and Long Xiang must have realized something, so they accelerated their march." Wei Qi looked at Bei Chenyan, with a somewhat anxious look on his face, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid we can't wait for the current situation."

"According to me, otherwise we will fight with them!" A general said.

"If it's a big deal, it's better to die than to stay here forever." The deputy general next to him also suggested, "Before the two armies of Xilan and Longxiang meet again, collide with one of them forcibly and kill a bloody path!"

"Not right, not right." Wei Qi quickly waved his hand, "At this moment, we are the ones who will suffer the most. Besides, we haven't reached the point where the fish will die and the net will be broken. It's not worth it to take such a risk."

Ma Long asked, "Is there any news from Beiyi?"

Wujiang River is at the junction of Xilan Dynasty and Tianlin Dynasty, close to Beiyi.

Compared with the other big ones, the gates with stationed troops are much closer, so the best way is naturally to ask Beiyi reinforcements to help.

"We have been trapped here for half a month, and the news from Beiyi has been temporarily cut off." Wei Qi pondered, "But the eldest princess has received the news, and the young master is also in Beiyi. At that time, the troops will be dispatched, calculated according to the normal time. If there is an accident, it should only be a few days."

Bei Chenyan pursed her thin lips into a straight line, listening to everyone's urgent discussion, she didn't make a sound.

"According to the time, the reinforcements outside Quewu Pass should be here soon." Ma Long nodded and looked at Bei Chenyan, "If our reinforcements and Beiyi's army arrive one step faster than Longxiang and Xilan's, That's our comeback time!"

It's like a big gamble, if you make a mistake, you will be lost forever!

The wind on the meeting became more and more anxious, stirring up thick fog.

"But if the reinforcements from Que Wuguan, and the eldest princess take a step forward, don't we want to be turtles in the urn?" He Fei disagreed very much, and he even said bluntly, "Besides, Beiyi has just belonged to me, and the foundation has not yet been established." Be careful, in case they turn their backs and deny anyone, and make a false move, we will be caught off guard."

Someone agreed: "General He is right."

"It's a last stand. We may take such a risk again and put the winning chip on a Beiyi whose relationship is extremely unstable." He Fei originally disagreed, but at this time he had to say, "The subordinates know, Beiyi is the empress, she took it down personally, everyone trusts her..."

He didn't realize that the face of Bei Chenyan, who had been as stable as a mountain and made no expression, had turned to ice.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Malone clenched his fist on his lips and coughed violently.

"Of course, I also trust my mother..." The heartless He Fei didn't realize Malone's crazy hint at all, and kept talking until Malone's voice was too loud, and he turned his eyes away, his eyes full of concern , "General Ma, is there something wrong with you? Do you need to see a military doctor?"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!" Malone coughed harder now.
