: Being concerned about the beauty

The melee was over, and corpses were everywhere on the battlefield, and blood was flowing. The officers and soldiers who had just calmed down from the fierce battle were cleaning up the battlefield tiredly. The bodies were moved together, and the swords, guns, swords and halberds were collected.

Yang Ling looked at the city of Nanjing standing like a mountain in front of him and breathed a long sigh. The city of Nanjing was not lost, and the white-clothed army was completely defeated. They were already defeated. Jiang Bin still came to Yang Ling with a murderous look on his face and shouted: "Duke, there are more than 5,000 corpses of Xiangma robbers. The thief has broken through and fled to the Sheyang Lake area. Should we chase and suppress them immediately?"

Yang Ling looked around, ran for a long distance, fought and even had no time to eat. The soldiers were exhausted and their eyes were dull. Yang Ling shook his head and said, "They have no way out. There are big rivers in the west, the army in Jiangxi and Huguang are advancing. The north are our army. There are heavy troops to the east, and they have no way out to retreat."

He walked to Jiang Bin, patted his shoulder, and whispered: "The horses are fighting hard, and our soldiers are still a little less competitive. If we encircle local troops, we have to rely on our cavalry to bite them and pass the orders to order all troops to form a siege against Sheyang Lake. We will enter the defense area before noon tomorrow, and our main cavalry will rest for one night."

He looked at the bright red sunset in the sky, and said, "Zhou Dean is brave and good at fighting, good at offense and defense, and is familiar with the terrain here, so let him assist in the arrangement."

"Yes!" Jiang Bin took the order and left. After a moment, he hurried back with Xu Tai and two hundred households. Xu Tai looked heavy and bowed to Yang Ling when he saw Yang Ling, "Duke Zhou De'an and Lord Zhou died in battle!"

"What?" Yang Ling was shocked. Now the armies of all walks of life were too chaotic. The war had just ended. They were gathering their troops together. Some generals had not had time to pay their respects to the chief general. Yang Ling really did not expect that Zhou De'an, who was strictly ordered to defend Nanjing and would never go to fight, died in the battlefield. He asked anxiously: "When did he go to fight?"

Yang Ling calmed down his anger and asked, "Are you the generals under Lord Zhou? How did Lord Zhou die in battle? Tell me quickly."

A hundred households licked their dry lips and bowed, "Dude back to China, my elders heard that Yang Hu's army was dispersed. They were worried that the evildoer would escape, so they led three thousand soldiers out of the city to assist in the search, intercepted the thief Yang Hu in a small mountain village and killed this fangirl..."

"Yang Hu died?" He calmed down and said, "If you continue, Lord Zhou was seriously injured when fighting him, and died without treatment?"

The hundred households pursed their lips and said with a strange expression: "The four personal soldiers around Lord Zhou blocked the enemy with death. Lord Zhou took advantage of the situation and killed the thief Yang Hu and was not injured. However... But when Lord Zhou returned, he heard that Yang Kuanhu was attacking the city, so he immediately rushed forward and blocked the female bandit's return.

Yang Kuanhu wanted to fight alone with Lord Zhou. Seeing the opponent's three thousand cavalry, our gun forest formation could only block two rounds of charge. In order to delay the sound of horse thieves, we waited for the arrival of reinforcements. So he agreed to go to the battle with slackening, but who expected...... He died of Yang Kuanhu's hand."

Another big news, Yang Ling was so excited that he was stunned for a while before he said arduously: "Miss Hong killed General Zhou?"

The evening breeze blows softly, and the coolness smells bloody. Yang Ling is confused: When the court intends to recruit peace, they are still unwilling to do so. Now they are in a state of defeat. The court has no longer practiced the principle of recruiting peace. At this time, she killed the imperial general in front of the battlefield..., Mrs. Hong, how can you protect you? You avenge and finally avenge! At the same time, you have embarked on a path of no return...."

"Dude?Dude?"

Yang Ling came back to his senses and said with ease: "I'll restrain General Zhou's body. Let's stop the coffin and put it in the city." Zhou De'an made great contributions to killing the enemy chief, and Nanjing City protected Wuyou. He has died in battle. The national law is nothing more than human favors. No one will pursue his crime of leaving his post without permission.

While walking towards the city, Yang Ling whispered to Xu Tai: "How is our casualties?"

"Uh......" Xu Tai hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Our army suffered serious casualties, with more than 9,000 dead, and countless injured..., trapped tigers and fought for their lives, and their momentum was particularly fierce."

Yang Ling nodded and asked calmly: "How are the casualties of the cavalry?"

"Fortunately, the total number of casualties is not more than 30%. Our combat power is still there, while the horse thieves are even more casualties. They just rely on a mourning spirit, and the officers and soldiers from all over the place of aid have arrived in a hurry. They cannot contact each other and respond. It seems that there are soldiers on all sides, but there are loopholes everywhere, so they escape. As long as they have a rest, they follow the strategy of annihilation of Yang Hu's army on the north, and encircle them on all sides, and with the power of Mount Tai to crush the eggs, they will definitely be able to achieve their full results in one battle!"

The two walked side by side. Since Zhou De'an was dead, the arrangements and deployments had to be handed over to Xu Tai. Yang Ling gave him another instructed him and ordered him to discuss the details of the encirclement and suppression with the local generals. Everything was appropriate. Xu Tai hurriedly said goodbye and left. Yang Ling led his personal soldiers into the city gate. Someone on the military road shouted: "Duke! Duke!"

Yang Ling looked up and saw Ma Ang running down excitedly. Ma Lian'er was also wearing white clothes and was wrapped in a white army. There were only arrows on the top of the city, and no one dared to lie there and carefully observe. He didn't know that his sister had been abducted. At this time, he saw the brother-in-law of the Duke, Ma Ang was so excited.

In this place, Yang Ling was inconvenient to discuss his personal identity, so he just called out: "General Ma!"

Ma Ang bowed happily and said, "Duke, today is so dangerous. The white-clothed bandits entered the city as the convoy of Xu Jing, a huge wealthy man in Jiangyin. Fortunately, my sister saw something outside the city and fired an arrow to warn me. Then she closed the city gate in time and suppressed all the bandits entering the city."

He was unwilling to let others take away his credit. The first thing he did when he saw Yang Ling was to tell him his great credit first. Yang Ling was shocked when he heard it, hurriedly pulled him aside and said nervously: "Brother, that Lian'er? Is she safe?"

Ma Ang smiled and said, "Don't worry, Duke, before I started, I signaled her to leave early. Now I must have taken a detour into the city and returned home."

Yang Ling said anxiously: "I really can't rest assured that I haven't seen anyone. No, I want to go back home to see..."

Seeing that Yang Ling cared so much about the girl, Ma Ang was even more happy. He quickly called two personal soldiers and told them to take the Duke back home with him. He hurriedly said to Yang Ling: "The guards have been patrolling the North City. I have to go to the South City to see the situation, explain the defense clearly, and then go back home."

Yang Ling hurriedly said, "No, official duties are important. You must never leave your post without permission. The bandits are wiped out. It's just that things have happened in recent days. When the rebellion has been quelled, it's not too late for us to slowly reminisce about the past." He paused and said, "Mr. Zhou has died, and the defense must be responsible for you and the guards. It has a great relationship. Do not neglect it."

Ma Ang Yidai: "Mr. Zhou... is he dead?"

Ma Ang hurriedly frowned, pressed his eyebrows that were about to fly, and pursed his upturned mouth hard: "The horse thieves should be killed! Lord Zhou is loyal to his duties and kills the enemy bravely..."

Seeing Yang Ling's face turned gloomy, he hurriedly said, "Then the Duke will go back to the mansion to see Lian'er first. Don't worry about the defense of Nanjing city."

Seeing Yang Ling leave in a hurry, Ma Ang happily ran up to the city, seeing that the battlefield was still cleaning outside the city, and hurried to the south city.

"Have you come back yet?" Yang Ling was stunned, and her cheeks suddenly turned pale.

Seeing his expression, Chu Ling couldn't help but panic: "Miss...what happened to her?"

This is an elegant courtyard. Although it is not big, it has pavilions, towers, small bridges and flowing water. It is arranged properly and elegantly. In front of a corner of the Red Building, Chu Ling, who was hurriedly greeted, just saw Yang Ling, and he asked the lady if she was in the mansion. She knew that the battle had just happened outside the city. When she saw Yang Ling's expression and smartness, she immediately knew that the situation was not good.

Yang Ling stood in the local area, his face was confused: Now the war is in chaos. Where can Lian'er, a young woman, go? If she goes around other city gates and asks the city to come in, she will not go to the city to send a letter to her brother, or at least she will return to the mansion. If she is captured, in a big battle just now, will the white-clothed army bring a prisoner without any burden?

Yang Ling panicked: No, it must be that when she arrived at other city gates, the city had already received a warning and closed the city gate. She would go back to the house in a while. Yang Ling thought about this, but turned around anxiously and ordered: "Bangchui, go immediately to the top of the city and tell Xu Tai to find out Lian'er's whereabouts. You can go too, bring all the personal soldiers and horses with you. Be sure to find Lian'er as soon as possible, and repay any news immediately!"

Seeing that Yang Ling was stern, Dabanchui responded quickly and hurriedly took the people there.

"What to do? What to do?" Yang Ling was anxious and wanted to go out to find someone in person, but he didn't know where to go. What if Lian'er came back at this time?

Yang Ling was so heart-warming that he kicked him with hatred. He kicked a flower pot with flowers and grass beside the trail, and fell to pieces with a "bang" sound, and it was smashed: "Madam Hong! You stupid woman who doesn't know right or wrong, if Lian'er has any good intentions, I will never forgive you! I will never forgive you!"

Yang Ling's breath was so angry that his eyes were red.

At this time, a silly voice said: "Who are you? My flower, bad guy!"

Yang Ling turned around and saw a little girl with pink makeup, holding a bright red apple in her hands, standing by the door, staring at him with a pair of black eyes wide open, looking at him angrily.

Yang Ling subconsciously walked over and slowly squatted down. The little girl was very cute, with her beautiful eyes, and a little charming charm. She looked at Yang Ling alertly and pouted her mouth. Seeing Yang Ling stretching out her hand, she immediately flashed toward Chu Ling, pressed against her thighs, pointed at Yang Ling and said, "Auntie, beat up the bad guy!"

Yang Ling's nose felt sour, and he tried hard to relax the lines on his face. He said softly: "Pan'er, be good, don't be afraid. I'm not a bad person, but a father!"

The little girl looked at him in surprise, with a hint of doubt in her round eyes, but she didn't say a word.

Chu Ling picked her up and said with her little face, "Pan'er. He is your father, it's really your father. Auntie told you that Dad can ride a horse to take you to play. Buy a lot of delicious food for you. Call him Daddy."

Yang Pan'er turned her head and said, "Auntie. Look for Mom, I'll be back."

Yang Ling's eyes were filled with mist, and he slowly stood up and said softly: "Dad will definitely find your mother back. I'll be good at it. I'll go with my aunt."

Although Yang Ling didn't know where to go to find Lian'er, he was asked to wait for news in the mansion, but he couldn't stand it anymore. He hurried out of the gate, and his personal soldiers led the door. Yang Ling was about to pull the saddle and get on the horse, suddenly the voice of Liu Dabiaochui came from afar: "Duke, Duke, this person said he knew where Miss Ma was."

When Yang Ling turned around, he saw Liu Dabangchui hurriedly accompanying a young man. Yang Ling immediately abandoned the reins and asked repeatedly: "Who are you? Do you know Lian'er's whereabouts?"

He did not recognize Mr. Guan, who had met once, and Mr. Guan did not recognize the prince. He said hurriedly: "Miss Ma hasn't returned to his house? This is a terrible thing. A guard with a broken rib was rescued from outside the city. According to him, Miss Ma was robbed by a white-clothed bandit while she escaped. Although he had not seen Miss Ma with his own eyes and was caught, the white-clothed bandit leader was all considered excellent in horse skills, and Miss Ma was most likely in danger."

He was so dazed that he was in tears when he said this. Suddenly his eyes rolled over again. He thought of an equally important event and stuttered: "You... are you Duke Wei? What are the Dukes doing in Ma Mansion? Miss Ma...she...she..."

Yang Ling said calmly: "Thank you for sending the message. I am the husband of Lianerdi!"

In the stunned silence of Mr. Guan, Yang Ling turned around and horses, and suddenly roared: "Follow me to go out of the city, live to see people, die... I want to see the corpse, get Lian'er back!" As he said that, he whipped the horse and ran away first.

The guards hurriedly got on the horse, and the strong horse left. Mr. Guan opened his mouth and ate a mouthful of dirt, and his face turned as bad as dirt: "No wonder the rumors say that Miss Ma was a powerful person who was a powerful person. It turned out... it turned out to be true, or a dignified Duke of Power."

Poor, this infatuation is hopeless in this life. Mr. Guan walked away with a broken heart.

Yangling swept out of the city like a gust of wind, galloping like crazy. Whenever he went, he would stop and ask for information from the scattered soldiers who were flowing everywhere. Until he circled around the city and the outside of the city had completely quieted down, he calmed down.

Standing at an intersection, Yang Ling looked around in a daze, and the guards quietly pulled their horses to follow him. The torches in their hands were whistled by the wind. Looking around, it was dark several feet away, and the stars in the sky and the earth were dim, just like the center of his earth.

Lian'er hasn't come back yet, it seems that it's really bad, but why can't even find the corpse? She is a young woman, if she falls into the hands of a horse thief who is at the end of her journey... Yang Ling is so upset when she thinks of this.

A fire dragon suddenly appeared from afar, and the horse's hooves rushed over quickly. Although it was unlikely that there would be another white-clothed bandit here, Liu Dabangcui still led a dozen personal soldiers to ride their horses forward. The two sides touched each other, and then rushed over again. The first person was Jiang Bin.

The news of Duke Wei'er's order to search for Ma Lian'er had spread throughout the three armies. He was traveling around himself and did not return until late. As long as he was not an idiot, everyone knew what the woman had to do with him. How could the generals from all walks of life missed such an opportunity to serve. They sent people to search, but there was no news. Jiang Bin settled the team and led his personal soldiers to search. At this time, he met Yang Ling.

Seeing Yang Ling, Jiang Binchi stepped forward and said angrily: "Dude, don't rest tonight. Send troops immediately. Swipe the troops immediately. Swipe the horse thieves immediately and wipe out all the horse thieves. Maybe... the whereabouts of Miss Ma can be found."

Afterwards, his voice became weaker, and he obviously thought about what consequences would be for such a young woman who was like a flower and the tiger and wolf who were resentful and angry. Even if he found it, it would be even more unbearable and even more difficult to face.

From yesterday to the present, Yang Ling has been chasing and fighting all the way. Although Yang Ling has not done it himself, he is exhausted both physically and mentally. After this incident, he is extremely anxious. His heart has already chased to Sheyang Lake. After hearing Jiang Bin's words, Yang Ling didn't think about it. He opened his blood-stained eyes and said sternly: "Get up all the troops, draw the camp overnight, and attack Sheyang Lake!"

"Okay!" Jiang Bin was overjoyed and left with a bunch of horse heads.

Yang Ling led his personal soldiers back to the city. After a while, the commander's office of various garrisons outside the city gathered in the city, and Xu Tai and Jiang Bin rushed into the inner room first. Yang Ling stood silently facing the wall. The two of them hurriedly let go and walked closer and said softly: "Duke, all the generals have arrived. Please give orders from the Duke!"

Yang Ling was silent for a while and said, "Go back!"

The two of them said in surprise: "What?"

Yang Ling said slowly: "The army advanced northwards have not yet arrived yet. Now the army outside the city has fought against Liu Qi, Yang Hu, and Zhao Crazy, and has been fighting continuously. They are exhausted and have not even eaten a few bites of food. They will not let them rest for a night. When they arrived at Sheyang Lake overnight, they were already a group of tired and powerless officers and soldiers, and the enemy is waiting for their hard work. How can they fight?"

Xu Tai said anxiously: "Duke, Miss Ma..."

Yang Ling interrupted him and said sadly: "I know, I wish I could fly to Sheyang Lake and wipe out all the white-clothed bandits, but I can't pay several times the casualties for my own selfishness. Besides, now, I'm afraid... it's too late!"

Xu Tai and Jiang Bin lowered his hands silently and stopped talking.

Yang Ling suddenly turned around and went out to the main hall. He saw that the generals in the hall were fighting in the hall. Although they were all tired, they were all armored. They wore swords under their ribs and torches reflected the armor on their bodies, reflecting cold lights.
