Queen of the Black Phoenix

Chapter 687
The morning sun is unreliable.

It came out for a while, then disappeared again.

The proverb that Zhaoxia does not go out is the experience summed up by the ancestors for generations.

It's not happy at all.

The sun receded, but the army did not retreat.

Step by step.

Compared with the army of fire ghosts, the army in front of them is more familiar to the people of Xiguo.

Both the flag and the attire are familiar.

They are the army of Shen Guo.

The country of Shen that the people of Xi country longed for in the past.

At this moment, the Kingdom of Shen is said to have been occupied by the Second Prince of the Kingdom of the Great Emperor.

But Shen Guo's army stood at the gate of Xicheng.

Looking at each other from afar.

The atmosphere is a little heavy.

Whether it's for the people of Xi, or for the army of Shen.

This battle, for most of them, is the last battle.

They are also very tired.

If it was before, they might not be able to get here, and even if they did, it would take a long, long time.

But this time, they almost fought at the fastest speed.

What backs them up here is a belief.

Defeat Xicheng, occupy Xicheng, and they will become emperors themselves.

They can't go back, Shen country has been occupied, they are homeless dogs, they want to find a new place to settle down.

And in front of them is their future home.

This army of Shen Guo actually fought all the way and suffered heavy injuries.

At this moment, it is already like a trapped beast, it can only move forward, only forward.

The general Tian Li is the king of trapped beasts.

Looking at the city in front of him, he should actually have countless emotions in his heart.

But at the moment, I just look at the city.

Xicheng is beautiful.

Especially Xicheng, which is covered with thin snow.

If Shen Cheng is a middle-aged stalwart man, then Xi Cheng is a beautiful young woman.

This young woman should be rich, well-educated, gorgeous in appearance and dignified in her family.

But very young.

The green branches protruding from the city wall will surely be full of flowers in the coming summer.

The river outside the city wall flows slowly, and the sound of the flowing water is a little quiet and playful.

The wind is a little strong.

The placket of the blowing fluttered a little.

He shouldn't be wearing such a cape.

However, his subordinates felt that they should wear it to look imposing.

Of course, when you start fighting, you must take it off, and you will be a target if you wear it on the battlefield.

And he is not the kind of general who would sit in the back and enjoy himself.

He has been able to get to where he is today, not only luck, but also his own ability.

He is not afraid of death.

When the battle starts, he always rushes to the forefront.

He is a man of integrity.

Be a general and follow the rules.

Looking at this beautiful city, he put away his emotions, just admired, a little excited, a little nervous, and more of an ambition like a wildfire ignited on the grassland, burning blazingly.

One step further, and the road ahead may be completely different.

Either die or be king.

The horn sounded.

Loud and heroic.

The thin snow on the city wall seemed to be blown away, melted and wet.

It made the whole Xicheng more beautiful, like a woman who just came out of the bath.

The only pity is the lack of sunshine.

The sky is a little overcast.

But cloudy days also have an advantage. Things seem to be clear and clear, and you won't ignore them because the light is too bright.

As their horns sounded.

On the opposite side, Xicheng also sounded the horn.

Echoing each other generally, and overshadowing each other.

The sound of the horn also represents the morale of the war.

The loud and loud sound of the trumpet made the army of Shen Guo outside the city a little uneasy.

Even Tian Li felt a little uncomfortable.

The reason why he hurried over was to understand the situation of the battle.

Xiguo is also surrounded by fire ghosts, what he needs is for Huogui and Xiguo to come and take advantage after both losers.

The fisherman's benefit is at the right time and place.

But right now, the foot of the city wall is very clean, it doesn't look like it has been attacked.

It would not be the case if the fire ghost had already entered the city.

Fire Ghost lost.

He raised his head subconsciously, wanting to see if there was a human head at the gate of the city.

He heard that the third prince of Huogui Kingdom was personally killed by Queen Xi Shenyou, and his head was hung on the city gate.

But right now, on the city wall, there is only the word Xicheng, but no human head.

The sound of trumpets in the city overwhelmed them.

Immediately afterwards, countless flags were raised densely on the city wall, as if there were countless people.

Indistinct.

Tian Li narrowed his eyes and stared ahead.

do not know the meaning.

Immediately afterwards, an arrow flew out of the city.

The arrow shot extremely far, and the arrow actually landed in front of Tian Li.

Passed countless soldiers.

Tian Li was also taken aback.

Even unable to restrain the body back.

If he could shoot here, wouldn't he be able to kill himself just now?

Suddenly, I felt a chill on the back of my neck, and the back of my head was sweating.

The arrow was not sharp, but a small scroll of paper was attached to it.

But because of this, Tian Li felt even more scared, and his back was soaked.

Because the arrows can be shot here with anything strung on them, this must be a master of archery.

Sure enough, he saw the man standing on the city wall, holding a bow in his hand, standing straight.

The archer is Lu Wu.

In fact, it was not as easy as Tian Li thought.

Lu Wu is very good at archery, but he has not recovered from his serious injury. In fact, he has already tried his best with this arrow.

If you really want to take his life, it is actually very difficult.

And this time when he drew the bow, Lu Wu's wound cracked again.

But at this moment, it is completely invisible.

The blood burst, but it was only soaked in the inner shirt, and the outer armor could not be seen at all.

Over there Tian Li picked up the arrow.

The subordinates exclaimed: "My lord, be careful that the arrow is poisonous!"

Tian Li didn't care and shook his head.

Arrows can be shot to his feet, where is this trick needed.

Although he was born as a rascal, he is also courageous. At the same time, it is not the first time that Queen Xi Shenyou has fought against him. He trusts this opponent even more than those ministers in the court.

On the arrow is a text message.

It's actually a poem.The very famous poem was written by Princess Yiren.Even if Tian Li hasn't read enough poetry books, he still knows this poem.

"Boiling beans burns Osmunda, and the beans weep in the cauldron.

It was born from the same root, why is it too anxious?
——Please tell me. "

Tian Li looked at the last three words of the letter.

This word is very grand, but still has a sense of beauty.

This is written by a woman.

He thought it was a poem written by Queen Xi and Princess Shen.

It is no secret that Empress Xi is the real eldest princess of Shen, and everyone in the world knows it.

Because after the empress dowager Zhao was brutally boiled to death, the courtiers who were watching were in desperate need of face, so they began to crusade against the empress dowager Zhao in unison, revealing what she did back then one by one.

Among them was the murder of the former queen and the eldest princess.

Tian Li looked at the letter with some confusion.

In fact, Emperor Shen also sent him a letter.

The rhetoric is precise, the emotion is sincere, and the long-winded speech.

But Empress Xiguo, just this poem and three words.

Tian Li looked at the sky, the clouds were still thick.

In front of the city wall, flags are flying.

There are several people standing authentically on the wall.

Some distance away, it's not very clear, but Tian Li knows that Empress Xiguo must be there.

He has never seen what the queen really looks like. On the battlefield, he has seen her face, and seen her eyes, calm and peaceful.

What does it look like in the mask?
What kind of person can be called the most beautiful woman in the world?

Tian Li was suddenly a little impulsive.

He grabbed a soldier next to him, cut the soldier's hand, directly stained with the blood, and wrote: "Does the queen dare to come?"
