You Should Hug Me

The Lin family is a very important existence in Jiaye City.

Lin Xuan, the grandfather of Lin Xuan, was the Zhennan General of Gan State. He made great military achievements throughout his life. Until he died of an acute illness, he was still guarding the southern gate of Gan State with due diligence and was deeply loved by the people.

However, neither of Lin Xuan's two sons were the material for being military generals. Lin Xuan, the only eldest grandson of the Lin family who had the ability and determination to inherit his mantle, ran around for many years to save his grandson Duanmu Che, and only entered the army last year.

Even though it is said that the Lin family has declined and has no successors, perhaps when Lin Xuan went to the capital and was called "Mr. Lin", he received mostly hypocritical courtesy, but in the south, in Jiaye City, the Lin family is still famous and respected.

On the day before the war, the Yan people, relying on their long-planned and careful deployment, captured the entire Lin family, and used this to threaten the defender of Jiaye City, Yuan Ye, to come out of the city to negotiate in person. They also set up an ambush to kill Yuan Ye, which made the Gan army uneasy and Jiaye City was quickly lost.

Jiaye City defender Yuan Ye was a sworn brother who had been through life and death with Lin Xuan, and it was impossible for him to ignore the lives of the Lin family. Even though Lin Xuan had just returned from the north not long ago, he was still recovering from his injuries and had not officially served in the southern army for a day.

It can be seen that Yan State was well prepared this time and came with great momentum.

With deliberate planning, careful planning, and the dispatch of masters, how difficult would it be for Yan State to capture the entire Lin family from Jiaye City, where they had lived in peace for several years and the only general was still injured?

The answer is that the Lin family could not defend or resist such malice and means.

Choosing the Lin family as a breakthrough point is not without its insidiousness, but it is indeed very useful.

Breaking the peace by any means indicates that Yan State is serious this time.

The fuse is obvious. It is the alliance between Gan State and Liang State that makes Yan State see the crisis.

But among the three countries, Gan State is the one that really does not want to go to war and cannot go to war. Because of the geographical location, Liang State and Yan State are far apart, one in the south and one in the north. They can't fight even if they want to, but they can join forces to besiege Gan State at any time.

Therefore, no matter which side of the north and the south wants to form an alliance, Gan State will not refuse.

But the alliance is superficial and fragile. Gan State cannot easily let the Liang State army enter the territory to jointly resist Yan State, which is to invite wolves into the house. When Yan State and Gan State really fight to a certain extent, it is better for the so-called ally Liang State to choose to stand aside. Once it takes action, it is most likely to fight Gan State.

And this is the confidence of Yan State to take the initiative to go to war. The relationship between the three countries is ultimately determined by interests.

While listening to Chen Yun's story from the beginning of the war to now, Su Liang checked his wounds and the medicine he had used recently.

The wound was on the lower right chest, not fatal, but the tricky thing was the poison. Fortunately, the military doctor handled it properly at the beginning and tried his best to prevent the spread of the poison, otherwise Chen Yun would have died.

Su Liang regretted not bringing Lao Bai with him. It was useless to think about it now.

"Can you cure this poison?" Chen Yun asked palely when he saw Su Liang frowning.

Su Liang was taking something out of the medicine box and didn't look at Chen Yun, "What if I say I can't cure it?"

Chen Yun sighed deeply, "That's my fate."

"You're lucky." Su Liang said, "Although I'm not good at poison, I really don't understand what poison you have been poisoned with, and naturally I don't know how to cure it, but I knew a senior before and gave me some magic medicine."

Chen Yun was stunned for a moment, and then saw Su Liang take out a small jade bottle from the medicine box and pour out a mung bean-sized brown pill from it.

"Take it." Su Liang gave the pill to Chen Yun.

Chen Yun put it into his mouth without hesitation.

Su Liang shook his head, "You are too low on guard. What if I am a spy from Liang or Yan? I have said that I don't know how to detoxify. Do you dare to take the medicine I gave you?"

Chen Yun coughed twice, covered his chest and said, "You gave it to me, it must be right."

Su Liang packed up the medicine box and took Chen Yun's pulse again, "He shouldn't die." That was the magic detoxification medicine given by Lao Bai. He said he had been carrying it with him for many years, and there were only two pills in total. Su Liang didn't know how he hid it, and didn't want to know. Su Liang gave the other one to Gu Ling.

"Thank you." Chen Yun pulled the corner of his mouth.

Su Liang looked at his big beard, "Have you ever thought about trying to shave your beard?"

Chen Yun shook his head, "Not for the time being."

He once told Su Liang the reason for growing a beard: he looked a bit like a boy and wanted to look more masculine.

"Forget it." Su Liang was just talking casually.

"Gu... Marquis Changxin will go to negotiate with the Yan people. There won't be any... danger, right?" Chen Yun frowned.

Su Liang snorted, "You originally wanted to say there wouldn't be any problems, right? He is a little too good-looking and doesn't like to talk to people, but he is not a vase, don't worry. If he goes, no matter what the result is, it will be the best result we can do."

Chen Yun nodded slightly, "It seems that you trust him very much."

"Of course, we are a family." Su Liang said, "It's the same whether he goes or I go."

But after putting on his clothes, Chen Yun still proposed to go to the riverside to see the situation, saying that he was very worried about Lin Qi.

"Okay." Su Liang sighed, "I also want to see how Lin Qi is doing, let's go together."

Su Liang walked out with the medicine box, and Chen Yun followed behind. When they reached the door, he suddenly asked Su Liang, "Are you saying that you have something else to tell me?"

Su Liang did not turn around, "Let's talk about it later."

Chen Yun insisted on riding a horse, and Su Liang did not stop him. The injured part was not his limbs, so it would not be a big problem after the poison was removed.

When the two of them left the military camp, they ran into a young man in mourning clothes with a wooden expression. After riding past, Chen Yun said to Su Liang that it was Yuan Pei, the only grandson of General Yuan Ye.

Chen Yun was shot just to save Yuan Pei. The reason was that Yuan Pei, who was impulsive, was stimulated after Yuan Ye's death and rushed out of the city alone to kill the Yan people to avenge his grandfather.

"The relationship between the grandfather and grandson is very good. Yuan Pei was just too sad and lost his mind." Chen Yun sighed.

Su Liang did not agree with Yuan Pei's approach. From her point of view, it was even stupid and almost hurt others and himself. But she was not the one who lost her relatives. She could not empathize. At this point, fortunately Chen Yun did not die, and did not blame Yuan Pei at all. She did not need to say anything condemning.

After leaving the South Gate of Nanshan City, the view became wider. After riding for another two miles, you can see the army of Gan State stationed by the river. They all retreated from Jiaye City.

Liuxian River separates Jiaye City from Nanshan City. It is also another border of Gan State, blocking the attack of the Yan army.

After Chen Yun led his army to retreat to the north bank of Liuxian River, he quickly made strict deployments on the riverside, with archers on guard day and night.

At this time, Yan State had about 10,000 troops lined up on the south bank of the river, and the army of Gan State in the north of the river was ready.

Su Liang and Chen Yun rode past the separated soldiers and saw Gu Ling.

He stood by the river, his black clothes and black hair fluttering in the wind, as if he was a banished immortal who was about to return home with the wind.

When Su Liang got off his horse, he heard someone report to Chen Yun, "General Chen, Marquis Changxin wants to exchange himself for General Lin!"

Su Liang paused, and Chen Yun was stunned.

At this time, a man stood in front of the team on the other side of the river, wearing armor and a hat. Su Liang couldn't see clearly, but knew that it was not Lin Ling.

"Since Lady Gu is so righteous, we must help her! Then please invite Lady Gu to Yan Country as a guest!" The full-bodied voice echoed by the river, and the Yan army burst into laughter, full of sarcasm.

"Su Liang, the Yan people are cunning, and there may be some traps if they agree to replace people!" Chen Yun frowned and said to Su Liang.

But Su Liang walked towards Gu Ling with a calm face, "If he is willing to go, then let's replace him. Prepare the boat!"

Chen Yun sighed deeply and ordered people to prepare the boat quickly.

When Su Liang walked to Gu Ling's side, a person appeared next to the leading general on the other side. He was escorted over. Without looking at his face, Su Liang knew it was Lin Xi.

Originally, the Yan people on the other side had been clamoring for a long time, and no one from the Lin family had really shown up. This was the first time that Lin Xi was brought to the Gan people after being captured. The reason is that Gu Ling, who had just arrived in Nanshan City and appeared for negotiations, said that he was willing to exchange Lin Shi.

There are still more than a dozen people in the Lin family in the hands of the Yan people, including the elderly, children and women, and they are not afraid that they will run away. Using one Lin Shi to exchange for the Marquis of Changxin of Gan State and the Prince of Ning of Liang State is a sure win, and there is no reason not to agree.

Su Liang gently bumped Gu Ling's arm with his arm as a greeting.

In Chen Yun's eyes, the backs of the two looked intimate.

"God, you don't want to imitate the Beijing King back then and break into the enemy camp alone, right?" Su Liang asked in a low voice, "No matter what you want to do, I will absolutely support it, but you have to tell me the plan first, and I will assess how big the risk is."

Chen Yun thought it was inappropriate to change people, but Su Liang said that she would do as Gu Ling said, because she knew that Gu Ling would not lose his mind because of anyone.

Lin Qi was brought over and confirmed to be alive. The initiative was already tilting towards Gan State.

"I am Su Liang, the one who makes the decision. I wonder who makes the decision in Yan State?" Su Liang asked loudly.

After a while, a loud shout came from the other side, "Are all the men in Gan State dead? Let a little girl who is still wet behind the ears make the decision! Hahaha!"

There was another round of laughter.

Su Liang's face was calm. She knew that the other party was deliberately trying to irritate her and undermine the morale of Gan State. When it was quiet, she spoke again, "The men in Gan State are very good. Please say hello to General Mu Yamu of Yan State. I guess she was able to become a general at the beginning, but it was you who was not good enough?"

The wind blew Su Liang's ridicule to the ears of the Yan State people. The general standing next to Lin Qi's face immediately turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Yan State once had a female general Mu Ya. Why did she ridicule Gan State for letting a woman be a general? And Mu Ya was Su Liang's defeated general, and she lost very badly.

And when a man is told that he is not good enough, it always makes people feel ambiguous.

This time, the louder laughter came from the army of Gan State on the north bank.

Lin Qi was awake, but his mouth was blocked and he was a little dazed. He could vaguely hear Su Liang talking, sometimes far and sometimes near, but he couldn't make any sound.

"General Su, are you worried about your beautiful husband and don't want to use him to exchange for hostages? Just say it, stop talking nonsense!" A cold shout came from the other side.

The people on the Gan State side also felt that Su Liang would definitely not let Gu Ling exchange for Lin Qi.

Su Liang said coldly, "We in Gan country always keep our word. If he wants to exchange, then exchange. This general will not stop him! However, we can exchange hostages. With my husband's status and position, he is enough to exchange all the people in the Lin family!"

This time, the other side responded quickly, "Dream on! One for one, otherwise no deal! Let him tie his hands and come alone. If he dares to play tricks, you will collect Lin's body!"

Su Liang looked helpless, "God, they really don't know the value of goods. You are obviously very expensive. I'm sorry for you." After saying that, he turned around and said, "Bring the rope."

Chen Yun and other generals looked at each other and could only do what Su Liang said.

A general couldn't help but mutter, "Are they really a couple? They are so willing to..."

Soon, the rope was delivered and the boat was launched.

According to what Gu Ling had agreed with the other party before Su Liang came, he and Lin Xi boarded the boat separately and were pulled to the other side by ropes. No one was allowed to make a move in the middle, otherwise Gu Ling and Lin Xi, who were exposed between the two armies, would be the first to die.

Su Liang tied Gu Ling's hands with a rope, of course, a slipknot. Anyway, the people on the other side were so far away that they couldn't see the details clearly. One of the important reasons why this matter could be accomplished was that outsiders didn't know how strong Gu Ling was.

Then Su Liang helped Gu Ling get on the boat, and the Yan people on the other side also put Lin Xi on a small boat. He couldn't even stand steadily and fell down.

The archers of both sides were in position. The archers of Gan State aimed at the other side, and the archers of Yan State aimed at Lin Xi. If there was any unusual movement, he would be shot to death by arrows.

Both hostages were Gan people. No matter how you look at it, the Yan people have the upper hand in this game.

"I believe in your strength, but be careful." Su Liang told Gu Ling. It's not that they are messing around. The Yan people first brought up Lin Qi as a hostage. If they don't break the control of Yan quickly and turn the tables, they will be caught and the situation will get worse.

"Yeah." Gu Ling nodded slightly and looked at Su Liang, "You should hug me." Justified. There is a "etiquette" between them to hug each other when they part, not to mention that this is not an ordinary separation, Gu Ling is going to do something very dangerous.

Su Liang agreed, and in front of the two armies, he reached out and hugged Gu Ling.

Gu Ling's hands were tied, so no matter from which angle, it was Su Liang who took the initiative.

I heard that she loved him very much, but for the sake of the country's justice, she still let him take the risk, and she was so reluctant... In the eyes of some onlookers, Su Liang and Gu Ling hugging each other almost had a sense of life and death.

But in fact, it has nothing to do with life and death. Su Liang knows that Gu Ling is sure, and she believes in him and knows that he will come back safely.

"Don't be so fussy! You can come together, we don't mind!" The generals of Yan State shouted from the other side.

Su Liang let go of Gu Ling, and after returning to the shore, he made a gesture, and the soldiers pulling the boat began to release the rope, and Gu Ling drifted to the other side.

At the same time, Yan State also released the boat that Lin Qi was riding.

In fact, there is a possibility that Yan State did not intend to exchange hostages at all. After Gu Ling went over, he shot an arrow to kill him, and Yan State did not suffer any losses.

But Su Liang believed that the people in charge of Yan State were not stupid. People are valuable only when they are alive. Gu Ling is a very special hostage, and there is even a possibility that he can hold the royal family of Liang State hostage. Killing him will offend both Gan State and Liang State at the same time. At least Situ Xie and Situ Han have always been trying to make the world think that they care about Gu Ling.

Besides, even if the Yan people were really crazy and shot arrows to kill the hostages, Su Liang believed that Gu Ling had the ability to protect himself. This was the main reason why she asked Gu Ling to go.

Chen Yun stepped forward and stood beside Su Liang, looking at the two small boats slowly drifting in the river with an uneasy look, "Are you really sure to let him go? If he falls into the hands of the Yan people, you will be the one who is directly threatened."

"He will be fine." Su Liang shook his head, "Lin Qi seems to be injured."

Chen Yun heard Su Liang's words, sighed deeply again, and said nothing more.

...

In March, the weather in Nanshan City was already very hot.

A thunderstorm was about to come, with dark clouds and low air pressure.

The small boats were controlled by ropes by soldiers on both sides of the shore, and the speed was not fast.

Thunderous sound came from the dark clouds. The two boats met in the middle of the river and crossed and separated at a distance. There was no accident. Gu Ling, who was standing on the boat, didn't even look at Lin Xi.

Chen Yun couldn't help but speak again, "Su Liang, if Gu Ling goes over and does something rashly, it may make the Yan people angry and hurt Lin Xi's family."

Su Liang was suddenly a little unhappy when he heard it, and he didn't hide it. He directly confronted Chen Yun, "What else? If he doesn't go, what can you think of to save Lin Xi? Or let the Yan people catch Lin Xi and torture him in front of us, break his hands and feet to force us to give in and let them cross the river?"

Chen Yun's face froze, and he frowned, "I don't mean that, I just don't want them to get into trouble..."

"I know you care about Lin Xi and his family. But if you can't solve the problem, shut up and take good care of your injuries!" Su Liang's tone was very stern.

Su Liang could understand what Chen Yun was worried about. She didn't tell Chen Yun what Gu Ling was going to do, but she was still very angry when she heard that. Regardless of whether Chen Yun's worries were reasonable or not, she didn't want to hear anyone questioning anything Gu Ling was going to do!

As Lin Qi's boat approached the north bank of Liuxian River, Gu Ling was getting closer and closer to the Yan army.

Su Liang finally saw Lin Qi clearly. He was dazed and dazed. He was slumped on the boat, as if he had been drugged. There were no obvious external injuries on his body.

The boat finally docked, and someone immediately came forward to lift Lin Qi up and send him to the rear.

At the same time, Gu Ling, who was pulled ashore, quickly disappeared in the Yan army.

In fact, across the wide river, it was almost useless for the two sides to shoot at each other, unless they were excellent archers.

Su Liang didn't look at Lin Qi's situation, but continued to stare at the Yan Kingdom army on the other side, counting silently in his heart, "One, two, three..."

When Su Liang counted to "six", there was a commotion in the Yan Kingdom army on the south bank, but it was impossible to see what happened on the north bank.

The commotion only lasted for half a quarter of an hour, and the Yan Kingdom army retreated like a tide, and the formation had already been messed up.

Su Liang looked at the lush forest on the south bank, and quickly retracted his gaze, and then looked at Lin Qi.

Lin Xie was given something similar to Ruanjinsan and was not very clear-headed, but he still recognized Su Liang, "Su Xiaoliang...where's Gu Xiaoling..."

"Take him back to the city." Su Liang looked at Chen Yun, "I'll be there soon."

Chen Yun hesitated to speak. Su Liang knew what he wanted to ask, but he didn't want to explain.

After Su Liang checked the deployment by the river, he rode back to the main camp in the city. Qianguo quickly received a report from spies: the exchanged hostage Gu Ling seemed to be in an uninhabited land after entering the Yanguo army. , captured the leader General Fan Tong alive, successfully escaped, and disappeared deep into the dense forest by the river.

"Is Marquis Chang Xin so powerful?" A general looked overjoyed, "Great! That man named Fan is extremely hateful! He was the one who killed General Yuan!"

Chen Yun looked at Su Liang, "I apologize for what I said before. It was because I didn't understand Gu Hou's strength."

Su Liang shook his head and was speechless. He took the medicine box and went to treat Lin Wei.

Another general's eyes widened and he raised his hands and said, "How can the man General Su likes be just an appearance? Chang Xinhou is really brave and resourceful! Whether he can turn the situation around next depends entirely on him!"
