Chapter 100 Desolate Temple Fated

On the night of the siege, Hongyi sat silently in the tent in the tent in the Qin King's military camp.81 Chinese website

The smell of blood and burnt smell were mixed together, and countless tiny ashes were floating in the air. Not far away, hot flames were burning, swallowing, and rippling and raging in the rolling smoke.

War has always been made up of countless corpses and undead, hundreds of thousands of lives were massacred within two days.

His ears were filled with the wounded moans and moans of the wounded, and his heart was like whipping. Hongyi got up and walked out of the tent.

"Your Highness, where are you going?" A soldier ran out.

"Don't stop me!" he roared angrily.

"But there are enemy troops everywhere around here. The situation is critical now. Your Highness, don't be reckless..."

"Do you think I am useless?" Hong Yi asked back with a sharp voice.

"No, I didn't mean that!" The soldier lowered his eyebrows and didn't dare to breathe.

Hongyi snorted coldly, frosted eyebrows on the ice and brushed his sleeves away.

Since he was a child, he has been extremely intelligent. This time he led his troops to attack the city, he thought that with his army of 500,000 and his experience in following the army over the past few years, he would have captured Luoyang like a bag, but he would have been defeated so badly.

Prince Jingyao has been smart and studious since he was a child, and is familiar with military writing strategies and has very clever arrangements. He won a great victory in the previous battle of Chang'an and successfully captured Chang'an City as Kyoto.

He just refused to admit defeat. Why can't he do what Jing Yao can do?

Hongyi walked out of the camp, and the wasteland in the distance was now dug out of a huge deep pit. Inside the pit, there were the corpses of soldiers who died in the battlefield.

The north wind is flying, the land is barren for thousands of miles, the sight is full of devastation, and corpses are everywhere.

Before he knew it, Hongyi walked to a nearby town. Now that the war is in chaos, young men are all going to join the army to fight, and only elderly people and children are left in the town.

The dark clouds rolled, and raindrops fell in the gray sky. The rain became heavier, like a burst of floods pouring down.

A twelve or thirteen-year-old girl rushed forward from behind with a banana leaf, and the paint-falling medicine box on her back hit the boy's arm while running.

The girl seemed to have some sense of consciousness, turned her head and grinned at him, hurriedly ran forward again, and soon disappeared.

Hongyi's hand that was stumbled into his waist suddenly stopped. If it were usual, the girl's inadvertent collision just now would have killed her. Since he studied martial arts, from drawing the sword to swinging the blade for only one breath, his years of fighting with the army made him develop a habit of being highly vigilant and counterattacking any attack like conditioned reflex.

The sword spikes on his waist were gently raised, and he put down his fingertips, slightly raised his head and let the rain wash away. His whole body was soaked, and the water droplets on the silk fell to the soil.

I don’t know how long I walked, a dilapidated temple appeared in front of me. The incense burner at the door was smoked into dark gold, which was enough to imagine the scene of the incense being in its peak at that time.

The colorful lacquered gold wood carving Guanyin was merciful. On the altar were a few broken porcelain bowls and a girl sitting on the futon.

The girl's wet silk was raining, and her pretty little face looked ordinary, except for her smart and cunning black water eyes, which were bright and clear, as bright as stars.

I don’t know what she thought of, but she smiled at Hongyi with a "puke" and her eyes were curved like crescent moons, as if the spirit charm also overflowed.

With every frown and smile, it does not seem pretentious, and naturally reveals a heroic posture that is different from that of an ordinary daughter.

"What a coincidence, you are here to shelter from the rain too!" The girl looked at her curiously, and a smile appeared on her lips.

"Yeah." Hongyi just nodded.

"Well, it's still an ice cube. It depends on your appearance. You should be a general!" The girl continued to ask.

Hongyi turned around and stopped looking at her. Facing strangers, he did not intend to reveal too much information.

"Yeah, Ignore me. Judging from your unlucky behavior, you must have been defeated and defeated." She said casually.

When the other party was stabbed in the wound, Hongyi looked back and stared at him, scolding impatiently: "What do you know, an ignorant woman!"

"Woman?" The girl pointed at her nose, "I am much younger than you. I am a woman, so you are the old man!"

Hongyi sat on the ground, took off his soft armor, and red blood oozed out from his shoulder blades.

The girl caught a glimpse of his clothes being intact, and she knew that the unhealed wound had cracked again.

"Sit and don't move, I'll help you." She took out gauze and gold-chuang medicine from the medicine box she carried with her. "This is my ancestral formula. In addition to hemostatic drugs such as Panax notoginseng, Baiji, and Crane Grass, it can also repair skin trauma without leaving any trace or scar. Today I met me, you are lucky. We are also destined to do so, so we will only accept one or two silver coins!"

Hongyi glanced at her: "No need!"

"Hey, I said you guys are wrong. Now you are wet with rain and your wounds are cracked. If you let it go, it will easily become purulent. Could it be that you can't afford to pay the silver, why don't I give you a better price?"

Hongyi just turned around and looked at the pouring rain outside, and no longer cared about the girl.

"It's really unlucky today. Forget it, just think I'm kind-hearted and don't accept you for money!" The girl's face was depressed and continued to mutter, "Who told my bodhisattva-minded mother to be unable to see others suffering. She always wants to show kindness when she sees someone injured on the roadside."

She muttered, and kept pulling off a piece of gauze from her hands: "But we have to have a meal too. This time, I came to Luoyang to join my uncle, and there was not much silver left on my body. If I didn't come out to earn some subsidies, I would probably not even be able to eat steamed buns in the next meal."

"So you ran out alone with a medicine box on your back and made money by selling medicine?" Hong Yi was slightly stunned, with a little in-depth study in his words.

"Of course, there are many injuries here and make money quickly!"

The girl was content with her little cleverness, but Hongyi took out a ingot of silver and threw it into her arms: "Stay medicine, let's go back quickly when the rain stops!"

She was not polite and put the silver into her wallet with a smile.

"Why don't you stay in the military camp? If you lose the battle, you will be depressed?" The girl said in a mess, "Luoyang was originally the Kyoto of the previous dynasty, so it is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it is as solid as a god."

Hongyi said nothing. This time he led his troops to attack the city, he was already despised by several veterans in the camp. Now that the 500,000 army was defeated, he was even more shameless to go back to meet his father.

"We have all been defeated, why are we still staying in the military camp?" He sighed and lowered his eyes.

"It is a serious crime that ignores military rules when leaving the camp privately. Those who commit crimes will be killed!" said the girl seriously.

"You think I'm afraid of breaking military rules, so I'm not alone in the pitfalls of thousands of people." Hongyi smiled coldly without fear.

"You can't say that. My father has experienced countless battles in his life. If you failed to siege the city, do you plan to continue to be depressed like this? If my father is still alive, he will definitely teach you a lesson with a military stick!"

"Who is your father?" Hongyi asked casually.

"General Changsun is my father. We came to Luoyang this time to join our uncle."

"General Changsun was famous when he was alive, but I had a chance to meet him."

"That's natural. My father is good at marching and fighting. When dealing with places like Luoyang that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, sometimes he cannot rely solely on strong attacks."

"Don't rely on strong attack?" Hong Yi murmured to himself, thinking carefully, "Now our military camp is located on Beimang Mountain in the northwest of Luoyang, and can command the overall situation from a high point. Several strongholds in Luoyang City are currently under heavy control by enemy troops. Each stronghold is a strong city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you fight hard, it will be difficult to succeed in less than a year or two. However, in terms of military and combat effectiveness, they are defeated. The other side obviously intends to prolong the battle and delay the time."

"Since that's the case, just watch Luoyang tightly, then divide the troops to cut off all the food channels in Luoyang, and then remove those strongholds if they can be removed. If they cannot be removed, please die. Let's turn it into a dead turtle, then you can't."

When Hong Yi heard this, he looked up at the ordinary girl who was not outstanding, and his lips curled up slightly: "I am worthy of being General Changsun's daughter, but I have a bit of the style and wisdom of your father."

"Actually, I'm also influenced by it. Unfortunately, I was born just a woman and could not follow the army in a legitimate way like my elder brother."

The girl sat in her knees, her expression was quiet, with a few strands of silk hanging down, and a pair of crystal clear water eyes embedded in her fair and tender little face. There was an inexplicable emotion in her eyes. She felt the exploring sight beside her, and suddenly she looked back and smiled.

"Although it's no problem for me to dance with a knife and gun, it's really a terrible thing about the female red ones. My mother said that with my vulgar nature and no one dares to come to propose marriage after I'm wearing a hairpin."

"Who said it would not be!" Hongyi somehow felt an unspeakable feeling in his heart for the girl he met for the first time.

She stared at him blankly, the boy's lower eyebrows could not see clearly, and a white neck with a slightly exposed neck turned red.

The sound of rain gradually became smaller and drizzled from the eaves. The girl handed Hongyi the remaining medicine bottle in her hand, lowering her eyes and daring to look at him. She was as shy as the lotus in water was beyond the cool breeze, and she stuttered in a low voice.

"You can take this medicine back and use it. I'm going to go back. Mom doesn't know what I've sneaked out."

"Then you go back quickly and don't run out alone again in the future!"

She smiled and nodded, carried the medicine box and walked out of the deserted temple.

The sky gradually cleared, and a trace of sunshine poured down through the heavy clouds. The most beautiful scenery was just the petite and delicate girl wearing a light green Confucian dress. She smiled and the hem of the skirt swirled into a light and graceful curve.

"Brother, we will meet again!" she said with a smile.

"Yes, Luoyang City Changsun Mansion, I will go to find you in the future."

He stared at me for a long time and when I succeeded, I would definitely go to find you...

At the night in Tiance Mansion, Hongyi was lying on the stone table in the pavilion and murmured to himself: "Yinyin, I have never forgotten you, why do you forget me?"

The heavy rain that year made him meet a girl who admired his whole life. He never imagined that women could also work with men to seek the world, and could have such a broad mind, optimistic and open-mindedness.

Only such a woman can be worthy of his title of Princess Qin and help him create the prosperous era of Tai'an.

"Yinyin, no matter who kills you, I will never let you die with your eyes open!"
