Five or six officers and soldiers were packing up their resting place, but Qin Xiao returned to the partition and glanced at Zhuque. He was relieved to see that Zhuque had already put on his clothes.

The clothes were not completely dry, but under such circumstances, they had to be put on.

Qin Xiao was relieved, not because he was worried about Zhuque being seen, but because he was worried that those people might not be able to survive after seeing Zhuque.

If Suzaku wants to dig out their eyes, those people will naturally not sit back and die. Once they resist, it will be easy for Suzaku to kill a few officers and soldiers in a rage.

After all, if a temple is destroyed on a rainy night, even if the officers and soldiers are killed, no one can find out who did it.

Suzaku was holding a small wooden stick and stirring up the bonfire, as if he wanted to make the bonfire burn brighter.

The few officers and soldiers didn't talk much, and they packed up quickly. They soon lit a bonfire. Some went over to feed the horses, while others distributed dry food. A few people ate dry food around the bonfire.

Qin Xiao was confused, thinking to himself about the origins of these officers and soldiers, but suddenly heard a voice coming from behind: "Little brother, this is...!" The words stopped abruptly, and Qin Xiao turned around.

, only to see that it was Zhao Tuo who had just spoken to him. He was holding a few cakes in his hand, but his eyes were staring at Suzaku at this moment.

Suzaku was calm and calm and continued to light the bonfire. Zhao Tuo stared at Suzaku blankly, obviously attracted by Suzaku's appearance.

"Is there something wrong, sir?" Qin Xiaoxiao asked.

Suzaku looked calm, but Qin Xiao knew that now that this beautiful fairy girl had recovered her strength, with her sixth-level strength, killing the officer and soldier in front of her was like squeezing an ant to death, and she only used her hands to stir the fire.

A small wooden stick can turn into a murderous weapon in an instant.

Zhao Tuo stared at Suzaku in a daze, which was naturally a big taboo. When Suzaku became angry, he could kill him in an instant.

Qin Xiao can understand Zhao Tuo.

Suzaku is mature and beautiful. She is standing by the bonfire, with fair skin and rosy skin, and a round and round figure. Even a man would take a few glances at her. What's more, he suddenly saw such a mature and plump beauty in a ruined temple on a rainy night.

People, it is understandable that Zhao Tuo was in a daze for a while.

Qin Xiao didn't want him to die because of this, so he asked aloud. Zhao Tuo also came to his senses, and obviously realized that he had lost his temper. He smiled awkwardly, handed over the cakes, and said: "Take it, fill your stomach."

The other party showed good intentions, Qin Xiao stood up and took it, nodded and thanked, Zhao Tuo smiled, but when he left, he couldn't help but glance at Suzaku again.

Qin Xiao thought to himself, brother, you'd better go as fast as possible. Although it's good to be beautiful and attractive, you don't want to think about how sacred this beautiful woman is, which you can never afford to offend.

Qin Xiao sat down and took a piece of cake and handed it to Zhuque, but Zhuque didn't even look at it, with a cold attitude.

Qin Xiao sighed inwardly, thinking to himself that Zhuque was already cold and cold. If he hadn't helped her several times and the two of them had been together for a while, his attitude towards him would have been equally cold.

These cakes were sent over by Zhao Tuo. Zhao Tuo just stared at Suzaku. Suzaku naturally felt disgusted. It is normal for Suzaku not to look at these cakes after they passed through Zhao Tuo's hands.

"After everyone has finished eating, take a rest immediately and refresh yourself." The voice of General Changxu came over: "Wu Quan, please do some hard work and be responsible for keeping watch. As soon as the rain stops, wake us up immediately and we can continue on our way.

"

Wu Quan agreed, but then he heard a voice saying: "Commander, it's better for me to keep vigil. You have all worked hard, but I have good energy."

"That's fine." The long-bearded general said, "Wei Xu, you stay here for half the night. If the heavy rain doesn't stop, wake Wu Quan in the middle of the night and ask him to replace him."

Qin Xiao and Zhuque had already eaten dry food before, so they put the cakes into the package.

"Aunt Ying, you should rest early." Qin Xiao whispered to Zhuque: "I will keep watch."

Zhuque hummed softly and put down the small wooden stick in his hand. He didn't dislike the haystack, and lay down on his side with his back to Qin Xiao. His legs were slightly curled up and his body was slightly arched. This posture naturally made his plump buttocks arch backward.

This made her already plump round butt look even fuller and rounder.

Qin Xiao didn't like to look too much, but he secretly thought that compared to She Yue and Little Sister, Suzaku might not be astonishing at first glance because of his peerless appearance, but the more he looked at it, the more he looked at it, just like a fine wine.

, the more you smell it, the more fragrant it becomes, and the more you taste it, the more flavorful it becomes.

Not long after, he heard snoring coming from the other side of the partition, and soon it started to come one after another. Qin Xiao thought to himself that these people looked really tired, and they actually fell asleep when they fell down.

However, the long-bearded general was a commander, but he did not know which army he was commanding.

They were rushing on horseback on a rainy day, and every one of them looked tired. It was obvious that they had a tight schedule, but they didn't know where they came from and where they were going.

Suzaku lay on his side, like a reclining jade statue, and did not move for a long time. What surprised Qin Xiao even more was that Suzaku's breath was unusually weak. If it were not for the sixth level of cultivation, Qin Xiao would not even be able to feel it.

Suzaku breathes.

He was surprised, but he soon thought that Suzaku had been recovering his strength in the past few days, and judging from the current situation, he should still be practicing.

Qin Xiao also lay down on the haystack nearby, but he remembered that he and Suzaku were interrupted by these officers and soldiers in the middle of their conversation.

Zhuque said that Youzhou is a life gate of Tantai Xuanye, but he was interrupted before he explained it clearly. At this time, Qin Xiao was thinking about what Zhuque had just said, secretly thinking that if he controlled Youzhou, he could indeed check and balance Huai.

Shuozhen can even prevent Tantai Xuanye's plan to control the border troops.

It’s just that I have no foundation in Youzhou, how can I influence or even control Youzhou?

It is even more impossible militarily.

The Long Rui Army is stationed in western Liaoning, and its biggest enemy is the Liaodong Army. Of course, it cannot turn the spearhead to deal with Youzhou. If it does, it will be no different from seeking death.

Although Tantai Xuanye controlled Kyoto, the world was not yet in chaos. Youzhou was an important place in the north of the Tang Dynasty. Long Rui's army attacked Youzhou, which was an absolute rebellion. Not to mention Shi Wuming, even if it really attacked Youzhou's imperial army, Liaodong

The army and the Youzhou army are attacking from both sides, and Long Rui's army will die without a burial place.

Long Rui's army already has nearly 20,000 troops, but its composition is complicated and it has not yet been integrated into a fist in a short period of time.

Although all the members of the Long Rui Army have experience on the battlefield, as a complete army, they have not really been tempered by war. Qin Xiao knows this clearly and has not been tempered on the battlefield.

The combat effectiveness of Ruijun is actually just a question mark.

The temporary strength of the Liaodong Army is roughly the same as that of the Long Rui Army. Although the Liaodong Army has not been tempered by war for many years, it still belongs to a whole.

In addition, Youzhou made

As an important town in the north of the Tang Dynasty, Qin Xiao also knew that the Youzhou camp had 5,000 soldiers and horses directly under its command. Plus the local garrisons from various counties in Youzhou, there were tens of thousands of soldiers and horses when combined. This force should not be underestimated.

Moreover, Zhuque also said today that in order to supply the logistics of Huaishuo Town, Youzhou not only has an arsenal, but also a granary with a million stones of grain. These two points alone are different from other state capitals. Once attacked, Youzhou can

It is undoubtedly a foolish dream to expand the army and horses in the shortest possible time to attack Youzhou.

Of course Zhuque understands this, but why does he still say that he can seize the life gate of Youzhou?

The closer he was to leaving seclusion, the more things he thought about, wondering what the next path for Long Ruijun would be after the incident in Kyoto.

I don't know how long it took, but Qin Xiao suddenly heard the faint sound of horse hoofbeats. In the wind and rain, the sound of horse hoofs seemed to be absent. If it weren't for his amazing hearing, Qin Xiao would have been hard to detect. He only wondered if he heard it wrong.

I sat up, held my breath, and listened. This time I could hear it more clearly. Sure enough, there was the sound of horse hooves mixed in with the sound of wind and rain. There seemed to be a lot of horses coming, but it was obviously still some distance away.

He looked at Suzaku. An hour had passed, but Suzaku's posture still hadn't changed at all.

After a while, Qin Xiao heard it more clearly. The sound of horse hooves seemed to be coming from the east. He climbed up from the haystack and walked lightly to the east wall. There were several broken holes in the east wall. Qin Xiao gathered together.

Standing next to the cave, I looked out.

The rain was actually lighter than before. Under the darkness of night, Qin Xiao was shocked to find that there was a large group of people coming this way from the wilderness to the east. It was a large area of ​​darkness, at least forty or fifty people.

, all of them are wearing hats and hats, and all of them are excellent in equestrian skills.

He turned his head and glanced ahead, and found that the six or seven officers and soldiers were sleeping peacefully, snoring incessantly, and no one woke up.

He frowned and looked through the hole again, and found that the cavalry team actually slowed down their horses and stopped when they were still some distance away from the ruined temple.

But soon, the cavalry team suddenly separated like wild geese. Qin Xiao could tell at a glance the opponent's intention, which was to surround the ruined temple.

Qin Xiao was stunned and found it unbelievable.

Where did this sudden appearance of the cavalry come from?

To say that they came to take shelter from the rain would not even believe in ghosts.

They immediately detach a team to surround the ruined temple before sending anyone in to check, which means that the other party already knows that there must be someone inside the ruined temple, and their intentions are absolutely bad.

There were only two groups of people in the ruined temple. Apart from himself and Suzaku, there was General Nagasu. Who was this group of cavalry heading towards?

Qin Xiaoxun thought that it might not be directed at him. After all, before the heavy rain, he did not know that he and Suzaku would come to this ruined temple to take shelter from the rain, so the enemy would be even less likely to determine his whereabouts.

However, if they were targeting General Longbeard, they would not have known in advance that they would take shelter in the ruined temple. How could the cavalry team be sure that their target would be in the ruined temple?

Qin Xiao was suspicious, but the team of cavalry moved very quickly. They galloped over in a moment and quickly surrounded the ruined temple. Directly to the east, a dozen knights lined up in a row, all holding horse reins in one hand.
