Without news, the best news.

Li Yan was thinking about this sentence in his mind, and thought it was true. If there was a big problem ahead, someone would have retreated to protect his group and escaped. This situation now only means that the war ahead was going smoothly and the enemy could not conquer the barrier at all.

Thinking of this, my heart felt very calm.

"I heard two days ago that the general had already left Wuxiang, Rangyuan, and Licheng. At this time, the army must have arrived in Luzhou. Luzhou and Huguan are already close. I don't know when the general's troops will reach Huguan." He seemed to be talking to himself, but his eyes were looking at Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "Your Majesty is a stump for the old woman. How can the old woman know about these major military affairs? Your Majesty might as well call Shizhong Tian to ask."

While talking, Tian Lingzi walked in from outside happily. Looking at Tian Lingzi with armor, Li Yan couldn't help but laugh: "What's wrong, Shizhong, have you gone to the top of the city to fight?"

Tian Lingzi waved his hands repeatedly: "Your Majesty, don't make fun of me. I just went to the city to watch it. It was really like rain, and life was like grass!" He raised his arm and pointed to some arrow marks on it and said: "I was just watching and guarding the shield, so I was still getting a few arrows."

Looking at the arrow marks on Tian Lingzi's Jiaye Leaf, Mrs. Wang, who has always been calm, also changed her expression. "Shi Zhong, Qiao'er."

"Madam General's Lady is not something I am, the old guy." Tian Lingzi showed admiration on his face. "Where the lady goes, there is joy and thunder, and there is a high fighting spirit. The enemy wants to shoot her, but even the lady's fur is hard to touch at all. Don't worry, old lady!"

Mrs. Wang then relaxed: "She is always like this, not like a woman."

"Mrs. Wang is wronged. She is as quiet as a virgin and as moving as a rabbit. I remember when she first came to the palace to see me, her timid appearance made people feel pity when I saw me. I could have imagined that she would be a majestic female general!"

"Aren't I fooled by her like this?" Mrs. Wang laughed and said, "I have made this marriage for Ze'er as the leader."

Speaking of this, everyone in the yard laughed easily.

Outside the courtyard, there were people coming and going, and many young, even strong women were pushing cars and carrying loads toward the direction of the city gate. There were also stretchers that paid off from the juncture, running on the streets, and moving towards the battlefield hospital located in the rear. Although it was getting late, the war became more intense.

Hao Meng took the lead and pushed a wheelbarrow behind him, nineteen companions were either carrying loads or sacks, following closely behind him.

At the entrance of the courtyard, more than ten guards held the hilt of the knife in their hands and looked vigilantly at the crowd coming and going on the street.

There was no better chance. Hao Meng took a deep breath and stayed in the pass for the past half day. The wounded soldiers who came down from the pass and the civilians who transported supplies were all vividly talking about the war at the pass. In their mouths, the Xuanwu army was vulnerable, but the defenders were extremely heroic. Even though there was water here, it was certainly unquestionable that the Xuanwu army suffered heavy casualties.

General Zhu is using the lives of countless soldiers to attract the attention of the entire pass, so as to create a chance to kill him with one blow, and he can no longer hesitate. Once the front cannot hold on to the pace of attack, a large number of soldiers at the moment will retreat to rest. At that time, he will not have a chance at all.

He stopped the wheelbarrow and happened to park at the entrance of the compound.

When he stopped, more than ten people behind him also stopped at the same time.

The street was not wide, and nearly twenty people stopped at the same time, which immediately made the street a little blocked. A guard at the door frowned and walked over with an angry face, scolding Hao Meng.

"Go quickly, go quickly, do you know where this is?" The officer held the horizontal knife on his waist with his hands, and his eyebrows were cold.

Hao Meng smiled. It was because I knew where this was that I came.

He reached his hand under the wheelbarrow covered with a piece of felt cloth, and when he pulled it out, he had an extra horizontal knife in one hand, but he held a powerful crossbow in the other hand.

He stepped forward, and with the officer's eyes widened and astonished expression, he easily stabbed into his abdomen with a knife, and then pushed him backwards and crashed into the door.

The other guards at the door exclaimed in unison, and the sound of the sword being unleashed with the clanging sound of the slits being unceasing.

But what was rushing towards them was the crossbow machine that more than a dozen assassins raised at the same time.

With the sound of chirping, several guards rushing in front fell to the ground immediately.

"There are assassins!" Although the surviving guards were snatched by it, they could not take a step back. While moving forward bravely, they shouted loudly, hoping to warn the other guards in the courtyard.

Hao Meng raised the officer in his hand and smashed it hard towards the closed door. With a loud bang, the door fell backwards. Hao Meng held the knife and rushed forward. He fought fiercely with other guards coming from the yard.

Although there are important people living in this courtyard, there are not many guards. When the emperor came out of Chang'an, he brought dozens of personal guards and several eunuchs and palace maids. These people are naturally free of charge. In terms of their skills, they are of course lucky people. But the problem is that they are now facing a group of desperate people who have been through the battlefield. More importantly, these desperate people have no plans to go out from here alive today.

Once the two sides contacted, the guards seemed to have a higher number, but they were still killed by these twenty assassins and retreated step by step. From time to time, some people fell down on both sides, but more guards fell down and fewer assassins fell down. Although the guards were trying their best to resist, the battle was still quickly approaching the inner courtyard. Especially Hao Meng, who was at the forefront, was even more powerful. Several guards who came forward to resist were quickly killed, even if Hao Meng had several wounds on his body.

He was covered in blood and looked even more terrifying.

Li Yan, Tian Lingzi, and Mrs. Wang, who were talking easily in the inner courtyard, were shocked by the sudden change.

A guard rushed in like an enclave.

"There are assassins, there are assassins. Protect the carriage, protect the carriage!"

The inner courtyard was in panic, and only Xiaochan was still calm and shouted loudly: "Come here, protect us."

In the inner courtyard, except for these people, there were only eunuchs and women. With Xiao Chan's shout, dozens of women immediately surged out of the wing room where Mrs. Wang was located, everyone was holding spears and rushed to the emperor and others. Under Xiao Chan's command, three rows of military formations were formed.

This was made by Liu Ruyan when she was fine in Chang'an and trained some women. The combat power of these people is naturally far inferior to those of Xiaochan and others who have followed Liu Ruyan for many years, but at least they are much stronger than ordinary people.

Xiaochan took the spear and six short spears from a woman. With one arm, he had already carried the six short spears on his back and stood on the steps. He said to Mrs. Wang: "Old Madam, please enter the house with His Majesty the Emperor."

Mrs. Wang's face was pale, and she retreated into the house with the baby and the emperor. Tian Lingzi stepped into the threshold with one foot, but retreated again, pulled out the horizontal knife from her waist, and stood side by side with Xiaochan.

"Rise!" Xiao Chan pulled out a short spear from behind, held it in her hand, and shouted in a sweet voice.

These women followed suit and pulled out a short spear and held it in their hands.

With a loud bang, the door of the inner courtyard shattered again, and several guards flew backwards into the yard. Some twisted on the ground for a few times and then stopped moving, but some struggled to stand up, roared with a knife and pounced on it again.

Outside the yard, about a dozen assassins rushed in shouting.

"Send!" Xiaochan shouted loudly.

Dozens of short spears flew over at the same time.

The assassins probably did not expect that after almost completely wiped out the guards on the periphery, there was a decent military formation waiting for them in the inner courtyard. The short spear flew towards them, regardless of the enemy, and instantly shot several assassins and several seriously injured guards to the ground.

"Take!" Xiaochan pulled out a short spear again.

But Hao Meng, who had extremely rich battlefield experience, never gave her this opportunity again.

As soon as he bent down, he picked up a corpse from the ground. Hao Meng roared and threw the corpse in the direction where the female army was. Almost at the same time, the surviving as Hao Meng adopted the same strategy.

These people are veterans, and they can always make the most effective choices in the shortest time.

All Xiaochan’s military experience comes from this time following the army from Chang'an to Huguan. Compared with these veterans on the battlefield, the difference is not a little bit worse.

When several corpses flew over, the only correct choice for these female soldiers was to shoot forward, but at this moment, except for Xiao Chan, the others actually exclaimed and scattered to avoid it.

When these corpses flew over, Hao Meng and several soldiers who survived him rushed forward with their swords.

One avoided and the other rushed forward, and a huge space appeared in front of the door.

With a sound, the spear in Xiaochan's hand was blocked by a horizontal knife. Her wrist was so shocked that she could no longer hold the spear. She let go of the spear in her hand, pulled out two short spears from her back with her back, and pounced on Hao Meng again.

Xiaochan's quick reaction was also greatly surprised by Hao Meng, and his pace had to stop.
