Riding the Pheonix Chapter 422: Revenge
Zong Xu looked at the three people who came back and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you guys come back. Such a big movement couldn't be caused by someone on purpose again, right?"
Yang Shu felt heavy and nodded: "Now we really have no way out. The big avalanche just now has completely covered the future. If we want to restore the traffic, we have to wait until the spring warms and the flowers bloom."
Spring comes late in the northwest. Now that the New Year has just passed, we have to wait until March before the ice and snow can melt.
Zong Xu was calm and said: "Then take back Gravel Slope, it's only three months, we can wait."
Yang Shu was soothed by his calmness and thought to himself, after all, he is a famous general of his generation. Such magnanimity is rare to see.
He briefly told the story of Su Tu's appearance here, and said: "It's a pity that Su Tu can't die here. He will definitely let us spend these three months with peace of mind."
Zong Xu nodded slowly: "He is such a difficult opponent, and he even figured out my thoughts. It seems that this trip is the right one. If we take this opportunity to blow his arrogance hard, in the future It will be much easier."
Yang Shu was stunned for a moment: "General Zong..."
He thought that Zong Xu would blame himself for falling into Su Tu's scheme, and had already thought of words of comfort. Unexpectedly, Zong Xu's reaction was completely different from what he imagined.
Zong Xu guessed what he wanted to say and said with a smile: "The matter has come to this, being depressed will not be of any use. What's more, the way of using military force is that the brave will win when meeting on a narrow road. Who falls into whose trap until the winner is determined? , to be sure."
Does this mean that bravery is more important than conspiracy?
Yang Shu thought secretly.
Zong Xu said no more and ordered the lieutenant beside him: "The gravel **** is not far away. Set up camp early today, set off at the fourth watch tomorrow, and attack the city before dawn!"
"Yes!"
……
Su Tu pulled hard and climbed up the cliff.
Someone from above responded and pulled him up.
"Where is the princess?" a voice asked.
Su Tu looked sad and said: "Unexpectedly, there were three of them. They first plotted against Zhong Ji, and then chased after her, knocking down her grandmother as well. Badong, you immediately gather people to search the snow. We must find grandma!"
The guard named Badong knelt down on one knee and advised: "Great Khan, not now! There is an avalanche. We have to wait until the movement stops before we can act, otherwise our lives will be in vain."
Su Tu said solemnly: "Grandma is in danger, and if she is delayed, she will be even more dangerous."
"But like this, even if we want to search, we can't get through. Look, a big avalanche has formed over there, and we can't get close at all."
The mountain road in the avalanche is terrifying. The quiet and white ice and snow in the past have now transformed into evil dragons, roaring and roaring, destroying everything that can be destroyed.
Intimidating.
Su Tu pursed his lips and said nothing.
Princess Yongqing's old servant saw this situation and became anxious: "You don't want to save? This is not possible! Khan, the princess is not here to help you, and she will not go to such a dangerous place. How can you not see death? Save?"
Badong was unhappy and turned around to yell: "What does it have to do with the Great Khan? We can clearly see what happened just now here. The Great Khan's hand was injured. How could the princess be saved in that situation? Not to mention now, the avalanche is so big, if you have the ability, go and save it!"
The old servant was silenced by him. He saw that the snow had filled up the original mountain. Even if he really tried to rescue him, he didn't know how long it would take to dig out a road. , couldn't help feeling sad, and knelt down and cried: "Princess!"
The servants brought by Princess Yongqing all knelt down one after another, crying out in sorrow.
Su Turen and the others cried for a while, and when the sound gradually subsided, he said: "Okay, don't waste your energy on crying, we have to look for my grandmother's body later."
The old servant wiped his tears, showed hatred on his face, and kowtowed: "Please the Great Khan to avenge the princess! Cut the murderer into pieces."
A group of slaves behind him shouted: "Please the Great Khan to avenge the princess!"
After shouting several times, his expression turned into pleading, Su Tu finally spoke: "The princess is my grandmother, and I will naturally try my best to avenge her. This is my duty, you don't need to beg, just get up."
When the old servant heard what he said, he was very grateful and kowtowed a few more times: "Thank you, the Great Khan. As long as the Great Khan avenges the princess, we will definitely obey your orders and do our best for you."
Su Tu showed a faint smile, but it disappeared soon. He said solemnly: "Now is not the time to talk about this. When the avalanche stops, we will go look for it first. No matter what, we can't call Grandma Chen Corpse wilderness."
"Yes."
……
As a famous general of his generation, Zong Xu’s strong will was not revealed until he encountered difficulties.
After the avalanche, he did not waver at all and continued marching towards the gravel slope.
Knowing that this trip was Su Tu's plan, he planned to make a quick decision and attack the gravel **** tomorrow to recapture the city gate.
The sergeants had eaten early and were now resting in batches. The camp was quiet.
But Zongxu did not sleep.
He is waiting for news from the scouts. He must understand the situation of the gravel **** before taking action so that he can formulate a strategy.
Whether a war is won or lost depends on these details.
Yang Shu has been wandering outside the commander's tent for a while, wondering whether he should go in or not.
Zong Xu's deputy general came out and saw him standing beside him in a daze, and asked curiously: "Master Yang, what are you doing here? Are you looking for the general? Why don't you go in?"
"I..." Yang Shu actually hadn't thought about it yet.
Zong Xu's voice has already come from inside: "Third Young Master, it's very cold outside, please come in first."
Yang Shu hesitated and went in anyway.
"General Zong." He saluted timidly.
When Zong Xu saw him several times before, he either looked like an arrogant playboy, making people want to fight him, or he was full of confidence, making people envious of his vitality. ~IndoMTL.com~ This is the first time that I have a low-brow look.
"What, do you have a problem with me?"
"Uh..." Yang Shu's face felt a little hot.
"If you don't tell me, I have to rest. I have to leave at the fourth watch tomorrow. It's getting late." Zong Xu looked like he was planning to drive people away.
"Wait!" Yang Shu blurted out.
He cursed secretly in his mind. Looking at Zong Xu's smiling face, you knew that he knew it, but he just didn't say anything, waiting to see his joke.
Forget it, just watch it because it’s a joke. We’re at the end of the road anyway, how many more times can we watch it!
Yang Shu simply broke the jar and said, "General Zong, can I follow you tomorrow?"
"Oh?" Zong Xu touched his chin and said, "I will be very busy tomorrow and have no time to care about you!"
"You don't have to worry about it, I'll just follow you and help, even if I'm carrying the flag for you!"
Zong Xu laughed out loud.
Yang Shu was anxious: "Can it be done?"
Zong Xu finally stopped laughing and said, "Okay, I know what you are thinking. Playing chess against a map is boring, do you want to verify it on the spot?"
Yang Shu smiled and whispered: "I'll just take a look and promise not to interfere. I know that my status is not good for commanding soldiers."
Zong Xu looked at him and sighed.
Yang Shu was unsure of his attitude and felt very uneasy.
"That's all." Zong Xu finally spoke, not embarrassing him, "You can come if you want, and learn as much as you can. I don't care whether it will be useful in the future."
Yang Shu raised his eyebrows with joy: "Thank you, General!"
Zong Xu looked at him with a smile: "Didn't you still call me Uncle Shi at the beginning? Why don't you stop talking to me now?"
Yang Shu laughed awkwardly. Calling him Uncle Shi at that time was not a relationship building thing, it was just a deliberate attempt to disgust him...
