Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 229
war!

Xue Lang, who was born in modern times and grew up as a flower grower, never thought that one day he would go to war in person.War is too far away from the people of my big flower family!

When Xue Lang sat up from the bedding, Xue Lang was still a little dazed!Compared with the war, what everyone feels is closer and more urgent is to work hard, earn money, buy a house, marry a wife, and raise children; or "the world is so big, I want to see it."No matter what the pursuit is, it is very peaceful, but now, at Weizeguan in the Tang Dynasty, what Xue Lang is looking for is victory in the war, as many people as possible, more people alive, and, most importantly, the safety of Princess Pingyang !

"A Lin! A Lin!"

He yelled twice, but he didn't hear anyone answering, but he woke up Changjian: "Bi Dalang, Erlang has been out for a while."

this kid!
I knew that he promised to take good care of his injuries yesterday to deal with Her Royal Highness.Xue Lang turned his head and looked inside the tent. Not only Jiang Lin, but also the steamed buns were gone, including the she-wolf. Only Baozi was sleeping happily.

Xue Lang was speechless, rubbed his face, and told Changjian: "Bring me my armor!"

"Here!"

With the help of Changjian, Xue Lang changed his armor. Baozi finally woke up. He turned his head to look around and found that the steamed bun was gone.

Xue Lang looked at it, sighed, and said, "Okay, you come too, we share weal and woe!"

"Wang!"

Baozi didn't know if he understood, so he wagged his tail and followed his master.

Xue Lang didn't go to the warehouse anymore——

This is the beginning of war. The people in the warehouse will not be so ignorant and dare not make trouble. They must have been treated seriously and worked hard.

Xue Lang went straight to Her Royal Highness's handsome tent, but was told that Her Royal Highness had already entered the city.He rushed over without thinking, and was stopped by the guard at the door, so he had to wait for someone to report.

Fortunately, Her Majesty the Princess didn't let anyone stop him, and let him go to the top of the wall directly: "Your Majesty, see Your Majesty!"

"Youyang, you don't need to be polite, come on, your task today is to take charge of the telescope and report the distance!"

"Here."

Xue Lang didn't refuse, took the telescope directly, found a place with a good view, and began to observe——

At this time, the sky was just dawning, facing the white belly of the sky, dark cavalry could be seen vaguely, driving a group of ragged clothes, ragged clothes, dressed as the people of the Central Plains, and slowly advancing.

Xue Lang turned his head: "Your Highness, in front of the Turkic cavalry is..."

Xue Lang hadn't finished speaking.Princess Pingyang interrupted him, and said coldly: "These are the people who were plundered by the Turks from our frontiers. They were slaves in their free time, worked as cattle and horses for the Turks, and they were pathfinders in wartime! Youyang doesn't need to report to these people. Distance, just calculate the distance of the cavalry!"

These beasts!Xue Lang's psychological barriers disappeared after seeing such a scene!This is a bloody, life-and-death war, and his useless and superfluous benevolence cannot be tolerated. He is kind to the Turkic people today, and he will be evil to the people of the Tang Dynasty in the future!
"Here!"

Xue Lang responded, focused on observing the front with the binoculars, quickly recorded the data in his mind, and his brain was running quickly, using mental arithmetic to calculate the distance of the Turkic cavalry, and reported it out loud.

Princess Pingyang's face was condensed, and while listening to the data reported by Xue Lang, she ordered: "The bed crossbow, the god arm bow is ready!"

Listening intently to Xue Lang's reported data, Princess Pingyang ordered decisively: "Let go!"

Xue Lang didn't turn his head back, only listening to the whistling sound behind him, there seemed to be a wind blowing over his head, and he watched through the binoculars intently, there were already many Turkic cavalry in his sight who were caught off guard by the huge arrows of the bed crossbow——

"Wow!"

Xue Lang, who has only seen people kill chickens and pigs in his life, but has never seen a murder, couldn't help being so excited by the sight he saw in the high-power binoculars that he vomited!
"Youyang, is there a serious problem?"

Princess Pingyang said a word of concern, but there was no abnormal expression on her face.Xue Lang couldn't care less, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, shook his head, raised his binoculars and continued to look, calculating the distance.

The bed crossbow fired three rounds, and Princess Pingyang ordered directly: "Come here, send Xue Zhiyi back to the camp!"

"Your Highness!"

"This is a military order, those who disobey the order will be executed!"

Xue Lang gritted his teeth, then sighed, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, take care, your subordinates have prepared the celebration wine and wait for His Royal Highness' triumphant return!"

Princess Pingyang nodded, her face was condensed, and she watched Xue Lang go down the tower with deep eyes.

Without squinting, Xue Lang went downstairs step by step.This feeling of powerlessness... seems to have returned to the time when my father died of illness and my mother passed away, everything was on my shoulders, but there was nothing I could think of.

So powerless, and so sad and indignant!However, no amount of powerlessness and grief will help, it will not help to solve the problem!

calm!He should be calm!
If just this kind of situation can make him lose his composure, then he doesn't have to mess around anymore, just resign and go back to the county mansion, and enjoy his old age in advance!Not to mention repaying Her Royal Highness, helping Princess Pingyang through the catastrophe of life and death!
It is only the end of October of the fifth year of Wude, but the historical record is the sixth year of Wude.Optimistically speaking, there is still time!From a pessimistic point of view, even this battle... he has worked so hard for so long, it will finally pay off!
"Baozi, go find Mantou and follow Ah Lin together to protect Her Royal Highness."

"Wang!"

Baozi led the way.Xue Lang stood under the city wall, looked up at the tower, but couldn't even see a single guard!

Do your best, obey the destiny!All that can be done has been done, Your Highness, I hope you are safe!
Xue Lang declined the escort of the guards, only took Chang Jian, and turned back to his tent, when he came to the door, Xue Lang said: "Chang Jian, go to the warehouse and watch, don't make any mistakes!"

"Here. It's just, Dalang, who will accompany you?"

"I want to be alone."

"Here."

Changjian took the order and left.Xue Lang sat alone in the huge tent, suppressed all his thoughts, and only focused on calmness, quietly waiting for the news of the end of the war.

This camp was specially assigned to him, and there was no cement in ancient times, so the ground inside the camp could only be muddy, but it was well organized.The bed was just a wooden board, and the cotton cushion Xue Lang brought was spread on it, the length and width were just right.

Xue Lang's bed is on the left, and Jiang Lin's is on the right. Next to Xue Lang's bed, there is a kennel with steamed buns and steamed buns. The thatched pile in the lower left corner is the she-wolf's den.

Xue Lang was sitting alone on the plank bed with his legs crossed and his chin resting on his hands. His thoughts were chaotic. He seemed to be thinking a lot, but at the same time he seemed to be thinking about nothing.

From sunrise, I sat until it was dark, until I heard the sound of Mingjin retreating!He exhaled lightly, feeling that this was simply the most difficult day——

"Big brother! Big brother!"

Jiang Lin's anxious voice almost shifted its tone, coming from far and near.
