"Young master, it's not good, the Turks have broken through the pass of Helan Mountain, and they have already attacked" Lin Ping had no intention of entanglement with Qin Hu and the others at all, and after Qin Hu led the people to retreat, Lin Ping didn't even bother to approach Yuwenzhe, and shouted loudly from a distance, the pass of Helan Mountain had been captured by the Turks.
"What are you talking about, this is impossible, it is impossible for the pass of Helan Mountain to be broken by the Turks silently" Yu Wenzhe's heart suddenly sank to the extreme, because he knew that Lin Ping couldn't joke with himself with this kind of thing, but this matter was too unbelievable, Helan Mountain was dangerous, and there were 50,000 soldiers stationed all year round, and the steepness of Helan Mountain was enough to resist three or four times the enemy army outside Helan Mountain, how could it be said that it was broken by being breached, and it came so suddenly.
"What are you talking about, the pass of Helan Mountain has been breached" The most intense reaction was not Yu Wenzhe, but Qin Hu who was standing beside Empress Changsun, Qin Hu's face became extremely ugly, and a burst of horror erupted in his eyes.
Qin Hu is not afraid of the Turks, as a member of the Xuanjia Army, and a high-ranking figure in the Xuanjia Army, he has never been afraid of any war, even if he knows that he will die in a battle, otherwise when the Battle of the Tiger Prison was fought back then, he would not have followed Li Shimin into Kou Jiande's hundreds of thousands of troops with only 3,000 people.
What he was afraid of was not being able to keep the safety of Empress Changsun and Princess Changle in the coming situation, knowing that fighting and slashing without worries in a group of enemies was different from defending and guarding, and the latter would have to bear great pressure and cost.
At the beginning of the Battle of the Tiger Prison, Li Shimin took the lead and led the Xuanjia Army to rush in, but the current Empress Changsun and Princess Changle obviously couldn't do this.
"I secretly followed Lord Cao to the pass of Helan Mountain to meet Hou Junlian, but as soon as I arrived at the pass, I heard the fierce sound of slashing, it was simply a one-sided battle, the guards of the pass were like a group of old and weak soldiers, they could not bring a trace of threat to the Turks at all, during the time I rushed back, I am afraid that the entire pass has fallen" Lin Ping's eyes exuded a little hatred, and said.
"Uncle Cao, where is he?"
"Lord Cao is now at the gate of the Fucheng City, and has begun to gather the standing army in the Fucheng City, preparing to defend the city and resist the Turks, once the Turks fully control the pass of Helan Mountain, then the Duhufu will be directly exposed to the iron hooves of the Turks."
Lin Ping replied in a deep voice.
"Uncle Lin, you immediately go to the city gate to help Uncle Cao set up defenses, and I'll go find Xin'er" Yu Wenzhe was anxious in his heart, said a few words to Lin Ping, and ran wildly towards the gate of the inner courtyard, but he stopped after just running two steps, and turned to look at Empress Changsun, "Now the capital protection mansion will be attacked by the Turks at any time, and it is impossible to enter the depths of the Helan Mountains, while the Turks have not yet attacked, let's leave quickly."
"Okay" Lin Ping replied first, then untied the yellow package that had been carrying behind him, hugged it in his arms, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Madam, we must leave immediately, at least rush to Yinchuan County before the Turks arrive, otherwise, our subordinates will not be able to guarantee the safety of you and Miss" After Yu Wenzhe and Lin Ping left, Qin Hu said solemnly to Empress Changsun.
"Let's go, maybe this is the price of your father's ascension to the throne, no matter what, I can't put you in such a dangerous situation."
Empress Changsun closed her eyes, covered the sadness emanating from her eyes, touched Princess Changle's black and bright hair, and said softly.
"The subordinates immediately go and gather the brothers, and set off in half an hour" When Qin Hu heard this, his face suddenly showed a look of joy, and he quickly disappeared outside the small courtyard with the four guards, leaving only Empress Changsun and Princess Changle, as well as a faint sigh.
In the small courtyard where Cao's family lives, there are several huge candles burning in the living room, but the candle flame that should be bright is very dim, the maid Xiaohuan is standing aside and pouring tea for Cao Lianxin, and Cao Lianxin is sleepily sitting on the chair, looking at Yu Wenzhe in front of her with some dissatisfaction, the lightning marten is lying in her arms, yawning constantly, as if she is also very unhappy to be disturbed.
"Brother Zhe, why do you have to ask people to get up so late, they just fell asleep."
"Zhe'er, what the hell is going on, why are you in such a hurry" Different from Cao Lianxin, Cao originally meant to be a little tired, but looking at Yu Wenzhe's serious expression, a bad premonition gradually rose in his heart, and he asked.
"Aunt, the Turks have called, the Helan Mountains have fallen, and the Duhufu is completely exposed to the iron hooves of the Turks, the situation is really critical" Yu Wenzhe took a deep breath, looked into Cao's eyes, and said.
"This is impossible" Cao Shi stood up suddenly, stared at Yu Wenzhe, and said word by word.
"Auntie, this is what Uncle Lin saw with his own eyes, and now Uncle is arranging defenses at the city gate, how can I joke about this kind of thing."
Yu Wenzhe showed a wry smile, and then his eyes turned to Cao Lianxin's direction, looking at Cao Lianxin's slightly confused eyes, a huge sourness could not help but emerge in his heart.
"The forces that can break through the Helan Mountain Pass, how can the Metropolitan Protectorate resist it?"
Cao sat back on the chair as if he had fallen, a tear slowly falling from the corner of his eye, but he looked at Yu Wenzhe very firmly.
"Zhe'er, you must protect Xin'er's safety" "Auntie, you" Yu Wenzhe's heart trembled, looking at the misery in Cao's eyes, he already understood what she meant.
"With your Uncle Cao's character, he will not leave, he will swear to protect this mansion to the death, he once said, fortunately the Li family got the world, and the Tang Dynasty is the hope that the people of the world can live in peace, and he has poured all his efforts into the Shan Yu Duhu Mansion."
"Mother, what do you say, let's just leave together after finding our father" Cao Lianxin had long since lost her sleepiness, grabbed Cao's hands in a panic, and even unconsciously even sank her nails into the back of Cao's hands without knowing it, tears were like beaded curtains with broken threads, scattered on her cheeks.
"Silly girl, leave with Zhe'er, you have Zhe'er with you, so I stayed with your father."
Cao Shi said gently, looking at Cao Lianxin's cheeks all the time, as if he wanted to engrave her appearance into his soul, as if he didn't feel the pain coming from the back of his hand at all.
"Bang" In the next moment, Yu Wenzhe came behind Cao Lianxin, turned his left hand into a knife, and slashed at the back of Cao Lianxin's neck, Cao Lianxin's sad eyes suddenly turned into despair, and the whole body was paralyzed in Yu Wenzhe's arms.
"Zhe'er, promise me to take care of Xin'er."
"I will swear to defend to the death" Yu Wenzhe knelt down, kowtowed respectfully to Cao Shi three times, hugged Cao Lianxin in Cao's nostalgic eyes, and strode outside. i0 t1706231537:
