Chapter Twenty-Five: Hesitating, Long Jiu Presents the Secret Path
Han Tao was nowhere to be found, but Han Xiaoyue had nothing to do in the face of this situation, so anxious that the other generals retreated one after another and began to consider their own ways of retreat. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Lingyuan Master and others discussed, taking advantage of this opportunity to enter Jiangyuan City to spy on intelligence, and hoped to catch Han Xiaoyue again. didn't want to, but the four of them turned their faces under the city. Situ Sheng understands that if he turns his face with everyone at this time, it must be the end of the fish and the net. Under some clever words, the contradiction between the four was suppressed again.
The Spirit Source Master thought that Situ Sheng was the smartest in the next life, and when he saw that he was right, he nodded and said, "Brother Situ Xian is reasonable, so how about you make decisions in the future?"
Situ Sheng smiled and waved his hand: "In the future, you don't have to be busy making decisions today." As he spoke, Situ Sheng pointed to Jiangyuan City and said: "In my opinion, the fall of this city is only a matter of time, if we can make another contribution before the fall of the city, our road will be smoother in the future." ”
Li Chenghan laughed and said, "Han Xiaoyue is going to be arrested, you don't have to say much about this." If you have any ideas, let's talk about them!"
"Everyone, how do you divide the credit for catching Han Xiaoyue? Is it possible to fight back and forth like last time?"
The Spirit Source Master smiled and said, "Old Decay understands, is Brother Situ Xian going to arrest four people and go back to his life?"
"Not bad. The last time Han Xiaoyue was rescued, it was Long Yan, the daughter of Qingyun Zhai Longjiu. If she learned that Han Xiaoyue was in danger at the moment, there was a chance that she would definitely come out to save him. At that time, we took the two of them captive and went to meet Long Jiu. With the martial arts of the four of us, it is enough to capture Long Jiu. ”
The Spirit Source Master nodded and said, "Even so, aren't there only three of them?"
Situ Sheng smiled and said, "Master Quan, you have forgotten that our princess of the Great Song Kingdom is still in Jiangyuan City. It would be a miracle to be able to bring the princess back!"
The Spirit Source Master clapped his hands and smiled: "It's really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves! With the wisdom of Brother Situ Xian, the Ten Thousand Demon Valley will definitely carry forward on you in the future!"
Situ Sheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Master Quan, you're making fun of me again! The family master is strong, where will it be my turn? For now, we just need to wait for the change in the army." ”
As soon as Situ Sheng's words fell, he heard a cannon sound in the distance. The four of them turned to look, and the shouting of killing in the direction of Qingyun Village shook the sky.
The Spirit Source Master glanced at Situ Sheng and said, "Brother Situ Xian, in your judgment, what happened in Qingyun Village?"
"It must have been Long Jiu who led people to kill him. Situ Sheng said.
Lingyuan Quanshi raised the sword in his hand and said, "Everyone, why don't we introduce them into Jiangyuan City and kill them all!"
Situ Sheng nodded: "Good idea!" With that, the four of them galloped towards Jiangyuan City.
The team killed by Qingyun Village, the leader is Long Yan. Long Jiu followed, dressed as a minion soldier so as not to be recognized. Fortunately, the Song army and the men and horses of Daping Mountain under the mountain have not yet established a firm foothold, which allowed Long Yan and others to fight their way out of the encirclement. Niu Feng of Daping Mountain assigned his younger brother Niu Ling to continue to intercept and kill, and chased him out for several miles in an instant.
Situ Sheng raised his eyes and saw a woman holding a double ring in the direction of Jiangyuan City. Niu Feng's younger brother Niu Ling was in hot pursuit, and dozens of Song cavalry were killed from the side, and they were about to surround the woman.
"This woman is undoubtedly Long Yan!" Situ Sheng and the others chased a few steps and caught up with Song Jun from behind.
Someone in the Song army turned around and saw Situ Sheng and the others, so they shouted: "Brothers, Situ Daxia is here to help us!"
As soon as the words fell, the Spirit Source Master threw out the Clear Water Sword, and an arrow stepped up, piercing the soldier's throat. Before he could shout, he fell off his horse. The Spirit Source Master mounted his horse and cut down several Song soldiers in front of him.
Situ Sheng and the others did the same, killing dozens of Song soldiers who were chasing Long Yan in front of them one by one, riding fast horses, and trying to intercept Niu Ling from the side.
Situ Sheng shouted: "Niu Ling, don't chase after you!"
Niu Ling followed the voice and recognized it as Situ Sheng at a glance: "Brother Situ, I came to hunt down and kill on the orders of the king!"
Situ Sheng secretly shouted "not good" in his heart, seeing that Niu Ling was about to catch up with Long Yan. Once they catch up, I'm afraid that my plan to catch them all will be shattered. Thinking of this, Situ Sheng no longer cared about anything, and hurriedly aimed the golden folding fan at Niuling and threw it.
"What a move, 'hand to catch!'" the Spirit Source Master secretly exclaimed. I saw the folding fan open in the air and flew in front of Niu Ling. Niu Ling didn't expect Situ Sheng to make a move on him, and before he could speak, his head was cut off by a folding fan, and he instantly rolled off the horse, spurting blood out of his neck. The folding fan cut off Niu Ling's head, turned around and returned to Situ Sheng's hand, and there was no blood on the fan.
Seeing this, all the minions stopped their horses one after another, and were too frightened to move.
Long Yan and the others galloped to the east gate, and Han Xiaoyue personally welcomed a few people into the city, and immediately closed the city gate. When they came down from Qingyun Village, there were two hundred people, and only seven or eight people were left when they rushed to Jiangyuan City.
"Miss Yan'er, why are you?" said Han Xiaoyue in surprise as she hugged her shoulder.
Long Yan shook her arm, broke free and said, "Don't touch me!" After speaking, she walked straight to the city.
"Miss Yan'er!" Han Xiaoyue wanted to catch up, but was stopped by the people behind Long Yan.
"Han Xiaoyue!" the man shouted.
Han Xiaoyue turned around and looked at the man through the moonlight.
"Dragon Village Master!" Han Xiaoyue was taken aback again, "Why are you here too?"
"Don't ask so much, go to Qi Mansion!" With that, he pulled Han Xiaoyue and went straight to Qi Mansion.
When everyone came to Qi Mansion, Han Xiaoyue hurriedly sent someone to serve tea. Long Yan sat on the chair, panting heavily, and didn't look at Han Xiaoyue with her eyes. Instead, it was Long Jiu, who said after sitting down.
"Han Xiaoyue, where is your father Han Tao now?"
Han Xiaoyue sighed and said, "Father was about to return to the capital, and he was intercepted and ......killed by the Song army," Han Xiaoyue sighed and said, the mood that had just calmed down was sad again, and the circles under his eyes began to redden. Holding back the sadness, I told the story again.
Long Yan was originally angry, and only planned to ignore Han Xiaoyue before he admitted his mistake. Hearing that Han Tao was intercepted and disappeared, he suddenly softened, but felt that he was a little pitiful.
"This ......" Long Jiu was silent for a moment and said, "Young General, in my opinion, this city cannot be defended. ”
"Lord of the Dragon Village, do you think so too?"
Long Yan stood up and said, "Han Xiaoyue, if you want me to say, you don't have to be too pessimistic. My father and I came here to help you. ”
Speaking of this, Han Xiaoyue wiped away her tears: "However, how can the two of you fight your way out of the encirclement? The current Jiangyuan City is like an iron bucket!"
Long Yan walked to Han Xiaoyue's side and said, "Early this morning, the two Niu Feng brothers from Daping Mountain suddenly swarmed over, and then the Song army also surrounded them. My father guessed that it must have been Niu Feng's two brothers who took refuge in Song Jun. My father and I took advantage of their unstable footing to rush down the mountain with 200 brothers and break out of the encirclement. As he spoke, he continued as he paced, "Then, something strange happened. Out of nowhere, four men rushed out and intercepted all our pursuers, so that we could enter the city safely. I looked familiar with these four people, but I didn't recognize them. ”
"Does the Dragon Village Lord recognize these four people?"
Long Jiu shook his head and said, "I didn't look back, I didn't know that someone was secretly helping us." ”
Han Xiaoyue looked at Long Yan and said, "Then what do these four people look like?"
I didn't see it, but there was a man dressed in a very ostentatious manner, holding a glittering golden folding fan in his hand. ”
Han Xiaoyue was taken aback and said, "Situ Sheng, it's the four people who took me!" As she spoke, she took two steps to Long Yan's side and said, "Can you see clearly?
"Isn't that clear? Even at night, it's shining golden, it's very dazzling. ”
Han Xiaoyue's heart was even more impatient. If these four people come to sneak attack at this critical moment, I am afraid it is really impossible to prevent it. And according to what Long Yan said, these four people will take action today and tomorrow.
"Miss Yan'er, don't you recognize it? A few days ago in Song Ying, when you and Miss Zhao Mo rescued me, the four of them were there!"
Not mentioning Zhao Mo, Long Yan was not angry. At the mention of Zhao Mo, Long Yan snorted angrily and said: "When I saved you, where did I remember! I was just to save you, who knows who is in the Song camp!"
"If you don't know, you don't know, why should Miss Yan'er be angry......" Han Xiaoyue muttered. He also realized that mentioning Zhao Mo in front of Long Yan was probably a forbidden area forever.
Long Yan was so angry that she flicked her sleeves and said, "If I had known, I wouldn't have risked my death! A man's heart really changes!"
Long Jiu looked at his daughter's back and said to Han Xiaoyue, "Young General, it seems that my daughter has recognized you. Originally, I didn't want to take her on an adventure, but she insisted on coming. It can be seen that she still misses you. ”
Han Xiaoyue smiled bitterly: "Master of Longzhai, I really don't hide it, my affection for Ling Qianjin is far less than Ling Qianjin's meaning for me. As he spoke, he saluted Long Jiuyi and said, "Master of Longzhai, I really failed Ling Qianjin's sincerity to me!"
Long Jiu hurriedly helped him and said, "After the young general is a famous general, he is also a talent. As long as the major general treats my daughter sincerely, I will recognize you as a son-in-law, please hurry up!"
The two sat down face to face, and Long Jiu picked up the teacup and said, "Now is not the time to think about the marriage of the two of you, the most important thing is to find Ling Zun and break the siege of the Song army. Just now, I said that our city can't be defended, not to suppress the morale of the major general. But I have another plan here, and I ask the major general to consider it. ”
"What is the clever plan? The master of the dragon village might as well talk about it. ”
"Qingyunzhai has been fighting against the imperial court for many years, and it is not useless all these years. The reason why the imperial court has not been able to destroy me until today is definitely indispensable to the help of the secret passage. ”
When Han Xiaoyue heard the word "secret passage", she was first shocked and said: "So, the owner of the village has cultivated a secret passage in the city, where has he cultivated it?"
"Young General, come with me!" Long Jiu led Han Xiaoyue out of the Qi Mansion and came to a dry well outside the wall of the backyard of the Qi Mansion.
Looking down from the wellhead, the black hole is bottomless. The wellhead is covered with leaves, very mottled and dilapidated, if there is no one to guide it, no one would have thought that this well would be connected to Qingyunzhai at the other end.
Han Xiaoyue looked around the wellhead and said, "Village master, Jiangyuan City is thirty miles away from Qingyun Mountain, how much work is needed to open such a secret passage?"
Long Jiu stretched out two fingers and said, "It took two years. Moreover, there is enough space in this secret passage for a man in the prime of life to stand up straight. We have always relied on this well to transmit information in the city, so that we can deploy troops in advance before the imperial court sends troops. As he spoke, his brows suddenly furrowed, "However, a year ago, our eyeliner was suddenly broken, and this secret passage was also inexplicably blocked." I don't know if Lord Qi knew the secret, or if our people deliberately sealed it, and this secret passage was abolished. ”
"What is the purpose of the owner of the village to show me this secret passage?"
"Major General, I mean that we can concentrate our forces and break through the enemy one by one, so that we can take advantage of this secret passage. ”
Han Xiaoyue nodded, squatted next to the well, and said, "The owner of the village means to use this secret passage to transport the soldiers in the city to Qingyun Village. With Qingyunzhai as the base camp, first repel the enemy army in Qingyunzhai, thwart the enemy's spirit, and make the two sides become a corner again?"
Long Jiu smiled: "Haha! The young general is really smart, that's what I mean." ”
"So, who knows about this secret passage now?"
"The only people in the know are me and Yan'er. Long Jiu paused for a moment and added, "And my two right-hand men. ”
Han Xiaoyue frowned and said, "Right hand man, are the two of them reliable?"
Long Jiu nodded: "Young General rest assured, absolutely reliable!"
What Long Jiu didn't expect was that the matter of his life in Jiangyuan City had been mastered by Niu Feng. Situ Sheng and the others visited Niu Feng's camp at night, pushing Niu Ling's death onto Long Jiu's body, which made Niu Feng even more angry.
With a "snap", Niu Feng threw the wine glass in his hand on the ground and shouted: "Long Jiu, you dare to harm my brother!
Situ Sheng hurriedly pretended to persuade him: "The king is angry, and the king mourns." Don't mess with proportions at this moment. ”
Niu Feng glared at Situ Sheng and sneered: "Out of proportion, do you think I will be so impulsive and ignore the overall situation?" said, pointing to the two boxes in the corner, "Brother Situ Xian, guess what's inside?"
Situ Sheng shook his head and said, "This ...... Through the box, I can't guess. ”
Niu Feng sneered, walked to the two boxes, and opened them respectively for Situ Sheng and the others to see. I saw that the two chests were full of gold and neatly stacked golden armor. The gold and the golden armor shone in the moonlight, and the great tent was very dazzling. Everyone in the tent looked sideways to see what was in the box. Situ loved golden things the most in his life, but when he saw the golden armor compared with the golden folding fan in his hand, he realized that his fan was really not worth mentioning. I can't help but admire Niu Feng, so he has the capital.
"The King. Situ Sheng asked tentatively, "What are you preparing for these things?"
Niu Feng snorted and said, "Long Jiu is not in Qingyun Village, I just took this opportunity to buy his subordinates." As far as I know, Long Jiu has two right-hand men. Li Yizheng, the owner of the Immortal Altar, likes money, and the owner of the Wolong Altar is full of arms, and this person likes armor. Although he doesn't have much contact with them on weekdays, this king firmly believes that there is no absolute loyalty. If they can't be subdued by Eli, at least they will do what they like. If you can convince these two people, Qingyun Zhai will be self-defeating!" After saying that, he clenched his fist hard, "Long Jiu killed my brother, and I will slaughter Jiangyuan City!"
