Chapter 141 You Are the Only One Who Cares If I’m Tired
Shen Changgong charged into the enemy formation and looked to the south. When he saw Yu Huatian, who was like a moon surrounded by stars on the high platform, he realized that the other party was also looking at him.
One is a gentle and frail young man who is as gentle as jade and suffers from illness; the other is a god of killing with cold eyes and a ferocious mask in the dark night.
They were both looking at each other, their eyes meeting and intense sparks flying.
Shen Changgong saw that the enemy was surrounded by countless armored soldiers, with shields and spears lined up, archers drawing their bows and arrows, and the defense was tight. He also knew that it would be extremely difficult to take the enemy general's head in the midst of thousands of troops, so he immediately gave up on killing Yu Huatian and concentrated on saving Guan Shouchang.
Soon, he broke through the enemy's formation, joined up with his own soldiers, and then quickly rushed to the side of Guan Shouchang and Lian Yong.
He took advantage of the momentum of his warhorse, stomped his toes on the saddle, and flew into the air, slashing towards Lian Yong with his two crossed swords.
Lian Yong saw Shen Changgong out of the corner of his eye, swung his left hand and smashed Guan Shouchang's sword in his hand, then swung his right hammer towards Shen Changgong.
Shen Changgong knew the power of heavy weapons like the sledgehammer. If it touched it, it would cause injury, and if it was hit, it would kill. He would not be foolish enough to compete with the opponent in strength.
He suddenly separated his two swords, and the two swords passed from both sides of the opponent's hammer. Then the blades flipped and chopped Lian Yong's stomach.
The chain mail on Lian Yong's stomach was cut, but he was not hurt.
Shen Changgong had also landed at this time. He rolled over from under the opponent's horse and chopped the horse's leg with a knife.
Lian Yong's warhorse screamed and fell to the ground with a bang, knocking Lian Yong to the ground as well.
Seeing this opportunity, Guan Shouchang immediately swung his sword and slashed towards Lian Yong.
Lian Yong immediately dropped his sledgehammer and rolled over to avoid the knife. Shen Changgong still wanted to chase him, but the spears of the surrounding enemy soldiers all stabbed at him.
He could only parry and chop the spears apart with a knife. At this time, Lian Yong had also stood up.
The opportunity was lost and would never come again. Shen Changgong immediately jumped on his horse and shouted without hesitation,
"withdraw!"
The rear cavalry team became the front team and rushed out quickly.
Yuhuatian was not Cao Cao, and he would not order people not to shoot. Immediately, countless arrows were shot at Shen Changgong and others.
But by this time, they had already run far away.
Lian Yong shouted angrily,
"Guan Shouchang! Today's battle isn't enough! Let's fight again tomorrow under the city wall!"
Many infantrymen chased after them, but it was doomed to be futile for infantrymen to chase cavalry.
All the cavalry horses were frightened and ran around in the camp.
The order of the world is revealed,
"All troops, go put out the fire, calm the horses, and rescue the food and grass. Don't pursue us anymore!"
"Also, strictly interrogate the captured prisoners. Ask them what that thunderbolt-like thing is and who that masked warrior is!"
The Yan army attacked the enemy camp at night, but after all, the enemy was numerous and we were few, so there were always people who were injured or captured alive.
Although his side suffered heavy losses, Yuhuatian remained calm and composed in arranging tactics.
……
After Shen Changgong and others rushed out of the enemy's gate, they rushed north without stopping.
Many people turned around to look at the enemy camp that was burning with flames, and burst into laughter.
"Your Majesty, this was such a great experience! I don't know how many enemy soldiers I killed, I can't even count them all. If something like this happens again in the future, remember to call me Old Zhang!"
Zhang Yide laughed so loudly, it was so arrogant that Shen Changgong's ears were almost deafened.
Shen Changgong smiled and said,
"I'm afraid we won't have this opportunity again. Yuhuatian won't give us a second chance to launch a night raid."
"What? Your Highness, what did you say? I can't hear you clearly!"
Zhang Yide continued to yell.
This guy's ears might be buzzing from the bomb, and he can't hear clearly. It will be fine after one night.
Shen Changgong ignored him and turned to ask Guan Shouchang,
"Why are we surrounded by enemy troops?"
Guan Shouchang said as he rode his horse, feeling somewhat ashamed.
"The enemy commander used himself as bait, feigning panic and fleeing. I went in pursuit, but I fell into a trap. He also had soldiers ambushed behind us, and I was trapped without care. Your Highness, please punish me."
"It's okay, you did a great job. At least you remained calm in the face of danger and didn't let the other side take advantage of the opportunity to completely surround and strangle you. You even formed a defensive line.
There is no need to underestimate yourself. No one is born a talented general. Yuhuatian started leading troops to fight when he was a teenager. You have just joined the army and you still have a lot of experience to gain.
Every failure is a lesson learned. When I saw Yu Huatian, I wanted to kill him. No one can resist the temptation of killing the enemy commander."
"I understand. I will never make the mistake of underestimating the enemy and advancing rashly again!"
Soon, they arrived at the inner city of ** City. After entering the gate, Shen Changgong asked the cavalrymen to go back to the camp to rest first.
He dismounted and looked at the red figure slowly walking down the steps.
"General, I will pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
Guan Shouchang and Zhang Yide immediately knelt on one knee to salute.
"Generals, please stand up quickly. You have all worked hard today."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Yan Fuyao looked at the two generals with a warm smile on his face and said,
"You have all rendered great service. After the battle, Prince Lanling and I will reward you accordingly. Your sacrifice and courage will not be in vain."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, General!"
The two were extremely moved. His Majesty the Emperor came to the front line in person. They went to attack at night, and the Emperor did not sleep but waited here for them to come back.
Such a good monarch is something I have never heard of or seen before.
Although they knew in their hearts that the emperor was most likely not waiting for them but some extremely handsome man, the other party's words were enough to warm their hearts.
"You two should go back and rest first. You've all worked hard tonight. You two will have a day off tomorrow, as will the soldiers who launched the night raid."
"Hey, Your Majesty, I, Old Zhang, am not tired..."
"Lao Guan, why are you pulling me?"
Guan Shouchang pulled Zhang Yide away without saying anything, saying as he walked,
"Your Majesty, I will take my leave!"
That damned bastard Zhang Yide has no foresight at all. Didn't he see that His Majesty was about to speak to his husband? Couldn't he see the distressed look in his eyes?
It's really stupid of you to stay here and say something.
Seeing the two of them pulling and dragging each other away, Yan Fuyao smiled, came to Shen Changgong and asked,
"Tired?"
Shen Changgong smiled brightly and said,
"Others only care about whether my official position is high enough, whether I have killed enough enemies, and whether my achievements are great enough. Only you care about whether I am tired."
After he finished speaking, he took Yan Fuyao's hand and looked at her affectionately.
Yan Fuyao rolled his eyes and said,
"Don't make this damn noise for me. It's disgusting and corny."
Shen Changgong chuckled awkwardly. It seemed that the empress didn't fall for sweet talk.
He took off the iron mask on his face and removed his helmet.
The Empress smiled and said,
"It's quite nice. I mean you look good wearing the mask."
