Su Yang took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Qingyu's hand, saying: "General Qingyu, last night I received a business letter. Seeing that it was from the Zhuge family of Chu State, I hurriedly opened it and read it, only to see that there was nothing else inside.

A piece of letter paper also contains this secret military order with the seals of the Four Allied Forces, and on it are the seals of the Yan family and Su family's industry. I know this matter is very important, so I personally came overnight to deliver it to you."

Qingyu opened the letter and saw a few lines of handsome regular script written on the paper. The words were clear and powerful. Qingyu recognized Zhuge's calm handwriting and there was no mistake. The small script on this letter was written by the leader of the Restoration Alliance:

Brother Yang of the Su family, I bowed to him calmly. Although I have not met him, I miss him deeply.

Your sister and I are happily married, and together we will restore our homeland of Qiwei.

I hope you will convey this secret message from the Allied Forces. Do not delay, for fear of causing future trouble.

Qingyu Yifeng, old friend of Chen State, meet again today, general of Shu army.

These two people are the only ones who can read military orders, take them very seriously, and wait for good news.

Among the letters, there was another letter with no trace of being opened, and it was indeed stamped with the large vermilion seal of the Four Allied Forces.

Qingyu waved to Yifeng, and the two of them walked to a quiet place aside and took it apart together to see that Zhuge Rongrong's handwriting was still on it:

Chen Shu's 40,000 soldiers immediately marched day and night to return to the West Ridge of Shu. There will be leaders who will lead the way.

First cross the Han Pond of Disaster Water, then cross the ancient ice cliff, and plan to encircle the Jade City. The one with the most valuable soldiers and quick speed will win.

Qingyu and Yifeng looked at each other, then walked back to Chen Guo, Feng Hui and Zhu Teng, and handed the alliance leader's military order to them.

While Feng Hui and Zhu Teng were reading the letter, Qingyu saluted Su Yang and said: "Thank you so much, brother Su Xian, for coming to deliver the military order overnight. The leader of the alliance has ordered that our army will set off immediately, so I won't talk to you anymore. After Qi Wei returned to the country, Qingyu and Yi

Feng and I are scheduled to visit Fanjing! Please ask my dear brother to say hello to Aunt Yan, Uncle Zhao, Su Liu, Yan Qing and Yan Xiu on my behalf. I wish you three couples a speedy marriage!"

Yifeng also saluted Su Yang and said, "My dear brother, take care!"

Before leaving, Su Yang pointed to the path of dozens of carriages coming behind him: "On the order of Sister Shu, all the inventory in Yan's Grain Store will be used as grain and fodder for the Allied Forces. I have brought it all to you. Xiling Disaster

Okay, brothers, please take care!"

There is no one for hundreds of miles on the border between Song and Shu. The vast Xiling across the border is lonely in the world. No one has ever stepped into the land of Song from Xiling in the south of the Song Dynasty. Because of this natural barrier, the distance between Song and Shu

Regarding the deployment of defenses. The Shu Kingdom did not set up defenses in Xiling, and the Song Dynasty did not set up defenses in the dense forest north of Xiling. There was only a small border town, far away in Xunfeng County in the southwest that no one cared about. No matter what era it was, it was the Song Dynasty.

The small towns in Qi are all based on wood and medicinal materials, and are quiet and peaceful.

The early morning sun had not yet penetrated the small town, and a few sporadic rooster crows could not wake up the soldiers and people in the city.

The 20,000 defending troops first passed through the Han Pond of Disaster Water and then cut through the ancient ice on the cliff. Today they have quietly arrived at the Song Dynasty and are approaching the city.

They entered the small town effortlessly and rested quietly in the city.

The sky was getting brighter, and the guard at the south city gate rubbed his eyes, wondering why the gate was already wide open. Could it be that this year's winter wind is so strong?

People in the city came out of their houses one after another, or went to the small market to buy things, or ordered food and drinks. They were surprised to find that there were strangers everywhere in the city. Some were sleeping around the campfire, and some went to the small shop to buy some hot rice porridge.

.Each of them carried weapons and baggage, as if they were soldiers who had traveled hundreds of miles a day, or they seemed like travelers who came in groups.

The common people saw that the strangers were not acting rashly and restlessly, but were recuperating and recuperating among themselves, so they did not dare to disturb and inquire, but just whispered to the neighbors.

"Lao Qiu, who do you think these people are? Where did they come from? Could they be Qi Wei's Restoration Army?"

"Uncle Wang, how could it be possible that Qi Wei's Restoration Army, which was marching from Zhao and Chu, fell from the sky and suddenly came to our sleepy carpenter town? Are they here to cut firewood or collect herbs?"

Lao Qiu pointed to the high mountain on the other side and asked worriedly: "Could it be that they came from Xiling?"

Uncle Wang looked at Lao Qiu with a smile and said: "Unless you are a heavenly soldier or a heavenly general, in such a terrible place as Xiling in Shu, if you don't die in the cold pond of misfortune, you will have to die on the ancient ice cliff! If Xiling can march, how can it last for hundreds of years?

Our small town has never been fortified since then?"

Before the two people could discuss the outcome, they saw a young man with a tall figure, strong steps, wearing a silver fox fur, holding a peerless sword in his hand, hurriedly walking through the streets of the small town, shouting at the crowd: "Everyone.

Soldiers, you have finished your rest! With your sword in hand, follow me to fight all the way to Dongyang!"

The soldiers of the Wei Kingdom stood up one after another, their morale was high, and they shouted in unison: "Kill Dongyang! Kill Dongyang!"

After the 20,000 soldiers organized the army and left, the sonorous voice of "Kill Dongyang" seemed to still be echoing in the small border town of Song Dynasty.

The winter wind caressed the Chushui River. Although it was not freezing, there was no fresh color on the willow banks near the river. They were all chilly and desolate.

Lin Ying wore the white clothes she bought at the knitting shop next to Yangliu Bank with Shu'er, Qingyu and Yifeng when she first returned to Chu in the spring, and she still wore the blue belt she bought that day.

As I walked past the knitting shop, the owner of the shop had a very good eye and recognized the handsome Lin Ying at a glance. He waved to him and said, "It's Chinese New Year. Don't you, Master, bring your sister to buy a new set of clothes?"

Lin Ying also waved to the boss, with a bright and spring smile, but a cold look in her peach blossom eyes. He said: "My 'sister' is married to the richest man in Kyushu. I'd better give her new clothes."

Husband, please buy it for her!" Then he walked away.

The guard of Prince Sheng's Mansion who was walking behind Lin Ying stepped forward, pointed to a small black-awned boat on the Chu River and said: "General, the boat in front is Zhuge's boat."

Lin Ying saw two soldiers who looked like soldiers standing on the side of the boat on the shore, and knew that Sister Shu'er must have been waiting for him on the boat. He said to the guard: "I will hold the basket, and you take the two Qi soldiers farther away."

Guard your place and don’t attract attention.”

The guard handed the big bamboo basket to Lin Ying. He didn't know why General Jing Ning came to have a secret meeting with General Yan of Qi State. Why did he bring such a heavy basket as a meeting gift? Wouldn't it make our Chu State very rustic?

Lin Ying stepped onto the boat and gently opened the curtain. She saw Shu'er, dressed in the black clothes of a Qi man, and Tingting sitting in the boat, with her back straight and graceful. The only eye-catching thing was the hair on her bun.

Tie a Sichuan embroidered red ribbon.

Seeing that Lin Ying had not changed much, Shu'er was relieved and asked with a smile: "Xiaoying, you are the general Jing Ning of Shengwang County of Chu State, why don't you bring weapons but a big basket?"

Lin Ying handed over the big bamboo basket and said: "The noodles made by my mother are all your favorites. There is also wine made by her and Aunt Yan, specially brought from Chen State. They heard that you are married.

, but I couldn’t go to Shu Palace to attend your wedding banquet. I was very angry, so I didn’t bring you any other wedding gifts. There was only a pot of Baiguo Zong in the basket, which Aunt Yan and I brought when we first arrived in Fanjing.

My mother brewed it with her own hands, and it has been stored for twelve years to this day. It was said to be a wedding wine for the two of us when we got married."

Shu'er asked in confusion: "The two of us?"
