Chapter 149 Loyalty
"I know, I don't blame you, it's not your fault."

Shen Qingling interrupted Qiu Mo's words, her eyes were full of tenderness and tolerance.The more she behaved like this, the more guilty and self-blaming she felt, even her eyes were red, her lips trembled, and she couldn't say the rest.

"Deputy General Qiu suspects me. It's reasonable. A woman doesn't stay in Jinyun obediently, but insists on going out of Yongguan with you. Presumably she has a plan." Shen Qingling continued: "Actually, yes, I have As pictured."

The soldiers were tapping the goods in the carriage around, and there was a rustling sound.

Qiu Mo, who was standing outside the carriage, couldn't help but clenched the curtain tightly. He never imagined that at such a time, he would know what Shen Qingling was planning.Right now he owed Shen Qingling his life, even if he knew that Shen Qingling's purpose was impure, he would not allow himself to hurt Shen Qingling a little bit.

"I vaguely guessed that an accident had occurred at Exit Yongguan. Before I fell into a coma, I mentioned Exit Yongguan, which provoked Master Xue Yuxue to go to Exit Yongguan. Therefore, I have the responsibility to go to Exit Yongguan."

Qiu Min's face gradually paled.

It seemed that Shen Qingling's reason was not as unbearable as he had imagined before, but on the contrary, he felt more and more uncomfortable.

"Now, I have confirmed from the mouth of the thief Liu Yu that Yongguan is under siege."

"If we ask the imperial court for help, even if the imperial court knows, it will be too late for reinforcements. This also means that we must arrive at Chuyong Pass as soon as possible to save the lives of soldiers and civilians in the city before the city is destroyed."

"Vice-general Qiu, would you like to help me?"

Saying that, Shen Qingling praised Qiu Mo again:
"Vice General Qiu uses his troops like a god. If he goes out of Yongguan, he will surely be able to rescue the army and people from Yongguan."

Qiu Min nodded, and did not directly express his loyalty, but frowned and asked: "There are two generals Du Ling and Zhang Zhao sitting in the Yongguan Pass, and there are [-] troops in coordination. How can the Khitan people besiege the city? Can they cross the Shouguan?" The prince's blockade line should not be able to mobilize a large number of troops...Second lady, is there something tricky here?"

As Qiu Mo said, the problem of being besieged after leaving Yongguan is really too big.

Why were 6 people and two generals suddenly surrounded?Or, in the previous life, Shan Qun killed Du Ling and Zhang Zhao, but in this life, Du Ling and Zhang Zhao still failed to save their lives?

In any case, they had to rush out of Yongguan immediately.

Because of Shen Qingling's injury, the team's journey afterward was quite smooth.

On the one hand, Qiu Min ordered a soldier to go back to inform the main force, on the other hand, he called another person to check the ruts of the carriage, and he himself drove Shen Qingling's carriage.

The traveling merchant's carriage did not contain black powder as Shen Qingling guessed before, but filled the carriage with black powder.

In other words, the carriage itself is an extremely lethal weapon.

Since only one carriage was needed, Qiu Po ​​ordered people to count the goods and supplies in the carriage, disassembled the black powder in the interlayer of the carriage, and then turned around and destroyed the rest of the carriage.

He took good care of Shen Qingling all the way, brought tea and water to change medicine, his behavior was completely different from before.

That's right, Shen Qingling knew that Qiu Min was a drop of water and a spring of water, so she felt at ease and recuperated along the way.When she was near Chuyong Pass, the wound on her hand was almost healed, only her chest was still aching.

It happened to be night at that time, and looking at the cliff from a distance, it was full of torches, which lit up half of the sky.

"Second Lady, go back and rest. Looking at it now... I can't see why. It's better to recharge your batteries and find out in the daytime tomorrow." Qiu Min came over to persuade Shen Qingling.

Shen Qingling patted the big rock beside her, motioned for Qiu to sit down, and said, "I've had enough sleep during the day, and I'm not in a hurry to sleep for a while, Vice General Qiu might as well sit down, let's chat."

What to talk about?
Qiu Mo sat down in silence.

Yang Tu is rushing towards them with a large army right now, before Yang Tu arrives, Shen Qingling actually has time to coax Qiu Mian a little more, and learn some strategies of attacking the enemy from him.

But she doesn't want to.

Now there is no Shan Qun, as long as Qiu Bo doesn't know the truth about Shan Qun's death, then Qiu Bo is a useful general who can stay by his side.

This risk...

Shen Qingling wanted to take a risk.

"Deputy General Qiu thinks, how should we get out of the siege of Yongguan?" Shen Qingling asked with her feet on the ground, her chin resting.

Judging by the number of torches, there should be nearly a thousand soldiers in the col.

Of course, it is impossible for nearly a thousand people to surround Chuyongguan, and there must be a large number of troops stationed in other places.At the same time, based on Shen Qingling's guess, the situation in the city might not be very good either.

Qiu Mo closed his eyes and thought for a while, then said: "The exit from Yongguan is surrounded by mountains on both sides, and it is the only passage from the northwest to the Central Plains. If the Khitan want to besiege the city, on the one hand, they will cut off the supplies and reinforcements behind it; False attack from the front, supplemented by high attack and low attack from left and right."

"Yes." Shen Qingling tilted her head and smiled at Qiu Mo, and said, "I also want to go with Vice General Qiu, and the monthly food supply needs to be supplied from the rear when we leave Yongguan. As soon as the news spreads, as long as the Khitan people are not stupid, they will definitely do this."

The strange thing is, Shen Qingling and the others failed to see the Khitan stragglers that the merchants were talking about all the way to the Yong Pass.

Is it transferred?

Or...that's just an excuse for the traveling merchants to lure the enemy deeper.

"This part of the force is blocked at the mountain depression, which has the effect of intercepting." Qiu Min continued Shen Qingling's words: "But they have no reason to be so public in the middle of the night. In my opinion, someone may have passed through this place before us. close."

Shen Qingling's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "What does Vice General Qiu mean, is that they are just bluffing? It's true, with so many torches held high, it can indeed be disguised. If you scare the courage of the people behind you, you can still fight for the people ahead. Siege the city to delay the time."

The two of them chatted back and forth, when the soldiers watching the wind suddenly ran over in small steps, and whispered something in Qiu's ear.

"Where are you?" Qiu Mo raised his brows and asked, "How is the injury? Are you still awake?"

He got up hastily.

"What happened?" Shen Qingling stood up.

The soldier glanced at Qiu Mian, and after Qiu Mian nodded, he said to Shen Qingling: "The brother who was sent to track down the rut marks has returned. He was stabbed three times and has some skin injuries. He must have encountered a small number of enemy troops. .”

If it is a large force, the soldier will not be able to come back.

The three hurried back, and when they arrived at the camp, they saw a soldier lying on the haystack, his cheeks were bruised and swollen, and his eyes were so swollen that he couldn't open them.

"Did you say something?" Qiu Mo hurried over.

The soldier was taken care of by a colleague who knew some medical knowledge. He shook his head and said in a low voice, "When I got back, I only had one breath left."
