Chapter 82 Which poor student came through?
It was just a peck like a dragonfly skimming the water, and then he quickly dodged, "Huo Xiao, do you want to do it again?"
Huo Xiao was stunned when he heard this. As the kiss fell, his whole body went numb and his cheeks turned red. "Princess."
Su Yunyao's eyes darkened, and she hooked a hand around his collar, instantly closing the distance between them. "Huo Xiao, I'm warning you, if you dare to do this again, I will definitely not forgive you."
Having said that, his eyes slowly moved down and landed on his injured chest, "How did you get hurt?"
Huo Xiao was startled. "Princess, there's no need to worry too much. My injury this time was just a ploy to lure the enemy deeper."
A plan to lure the enemy deeper?
When Su Yunyao heard these words, a hint of anger flashed across her usually gentle eyes.
"You're saying you used yourself as bait to lure the enemy deeper into their territory. Are you claiming the title of Rakshasa on the battlefield as a self-proclaimed one? How could you come up with such a foolish plan?"
Huo Xiao: ...
A trace of difficulty flashed in his eyes, "Princess..."
Su Yunyao interrupted him, "Although I don't know how to lead troops in battle, using yourself as bait and putting yourself in danger is not a wise move. Even if you have excellent Qinggong skills and are sure he can't kill you, if the arrow is coated with poison, can you guarantee that Daxia has a secret recipe to detoxify it?"
Huo Xiao seemed a little surprised that the princess had such a big reaction.
That imperial city was not impossible to conquer, and he was not a coward.
Ever since he came to Ximenguan, he had already become indifferent to life and death.
The only thing that supports him is the indelible blood feud on his shoulders.
But the revenge for his father's murder is his alone.
He could not ignore the life and death of the soldiers who had followed him for many years.
Therefore, he could not rush in with his soldiers when the gates of Sangye City were fully open and he knew there was a trap.
The only thing he could do was to lure Sang Ye out.
But Huo Xiao didn't know how to explain these words to Su Yunyao. His eyelashes trembled, "So the princess is concerned about me?"
Su Yunyao replied simply, "No."
Huo Xiao was stunned for a moment, and a hint of loss flashed across his eyes.
This question was just an excuse he made up, but when he heard the princess's answer, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart.
"I know you want revenge, and I know you want to take Xijing and add to Daxia's territory. You could have had many plans, but you chose the stupidest one."
Su Yunyao's face had a serious expression, with a hint of anger, which was something Huo Xiao had never seen before.
In his eyes, the eldest princess is always gentle, never takes anything to heart, and has a playful nature.
Huo Xiao pursed his lips and said, "Princess, it is my humble servant who is responsible for the punishment."
Su Yunyao held her face with both hands, "Huo Xiao, if you want to be this princess's man, you must protect yourself. You can't let this princess worry, and you can't let this princess be sad. Do you understand?"
Huo Xiao's eyes trembled slightly, so the princess's answer to him just now was just an angry remark.
Outside the tiger tent, the voice of Deputy General Fu Chenfeng was heard.
Su Yunyao let go of her hand.
"Come in."
As Huo Xiao's voice fell, Fu Chenfeng walked in from outside. Seeing that the eldest princess was sitting next to Huo Xiao, holding Huo Xiao's hand with one hand, he was stunned for a moment.
He knelt on one knee politely, "General Fu Chenfeng pays homage to the Princess. May the Princess live a thousand years, a thousand thousand years."
"Get up." Su Yunyao's tone returned to its usual gentle tone.
Huo Xiao's eyes darkened. He knew Fu Chenfeng's personality well. If it wasn't an urgent matter, he would never ask for a meeting at this time.
"What's up?"
"General, Sang Ye has led 100,000 elite soldiers and is already ten miles outside the West Gate. What should we do now?"
what to do?
Huo Xiao threw back the quilt and stood up from the bed, "Accept the challenge."
"General Huo, you can't do that. Your wounds haven't healed yet. If you put any force on your arm, the wound will burst. How can you lead the troops into battle at this time?" Fu Chenfeng's eyes were firm. "General Huo, please give the order to let General Wan and I lead the troops. We will definitely live up to your expectations."
Huo Xiao sneered, "It's just a small injury, it's nothing to worry about!"
"General Huo, please think twice." Fu Chenfeng said sincerely, "Let me and General Wan take on this battle."
"The whole purpose of our plan was to lure him out. Now that he's here, you want me to stay locked up in my tent?" Huo Xiao's eyes flashed with bloodthirstiness. "I've waited far too long for this day!"
"General Huo." Fu Chenfeng's face was filled with worry. "Sang Ye is extremely cunning and scheming. I don't know how he managed to defeat the enemy with a small force five years ago, but now he's used the empty city plan. Who knows what he'll come up with today?"
Su Yunyao, who had been standing aside and had not spoken a word, showed a look of suspicion on her face when she heard the three words "empty city plan".
If she remembered correctly, Daxia did not have the Thirty-Six Stratagems.
Since there is no such thing, how can there be an empty city plan?
"Wait." Su Yunyao interrupted them, "What is this empty city plan you just mentioned?"
Fu Chenfeng was stunned by the question.
Huo Xiao's icy expression softened slightly upon hearing this, and he patiently explained, "When I led my troops to the Xijing Imperial City, Sang Ye had the city gates opened, leaving the city empty. He lured the army into the Xijing Imperial City and set up an ambush inside."
A question mark slowly appeared above Su Yunyao's head?
What the hell?
Is this how the Empty City Strategy is explained?
It's really a laugh to make a fortune!
Which poor student came through here?
Or is it that the Empty City Strategy already existed during the Daxia period, but it was not the same Empty City Strategy as Zhuge Liang's?
How could she not remember such an important record in history books?
"What was the name of that person you just mentioned?" Su Yunyao tapped her temples with one hand and thought seriously, "Sang what?"
Huo Xiao's eyes trembled, "Princess, are you talking about Sang Ye?"
"Yes, it's him!" Su Yunyao suddenly realized, "This princess wants to meet this person."
"No!" Huo Xiao rejected it outright. "This person is definitely not as simple as the princess thinks. If the princess wants to see him, she can wait until I take over Xijing, but definitely not now."
"No." Su Yunyao raised a finger and waved it in front of him. "It would be meaningless to wait until Xijing is defeated. Now is the time."
Huo Xiao frowned deeply when he heard this. He knew that since the princess had such an idea, she would definitely not change it, but...
"How does the princess want to see you?" Huo Xiao asked in confusion.
"This princess wants that poor student to see what a true empty city plan is!"
Huo Xiao heard this and wanted to stop her, but Su Yunyao pressed her hand on his lips...
