Li Ruizhi stood in an ordinary house, gently pushing the window with his hand, revealing a small gap, and was looking out.

Geng Lang was not far behind him, and he couldn't see the situation outside, so he could only look at Li Ruizhi's back, his expression a little complicated.

He took his subordinates out of the barracks, followed Li Ruizhi all the way to the city lord's mansion, and resolved the crisis in the mansion. A small number of people were assigned to escort Zhang Pengfei and the others, and then they immediately set off without stopping and rushed to the north of Gaozhou City.

This time, he finally learned wisely, and did not rashly ask Li Ruizhi, but just followed him closely. But in his heart, doubts lingered.

Especially when he arrived at the place and found that this was the north gate of Gaozhou City, his doubts were even deeper.

Why didn't Li Ruizhi go to Guanfu, is it really like what he said, Li Yongchang already had a comprehensive plan, or did Li Ruizhi have other ideas and didn't care about his father's life or death at all. Even, I was looking forward to Li Yongchang's accident.

It is very coincidental that Geng Lang and Liu Yulong have the same idea at this moment.

It's no wonder that he thinks crankily, since ancient times, in the face of power, the relationship between father and son is really not a very reliable guarantee. If Li Ruizhi ......

Geng Lang will be busy shaking off this thought, not allowing himself to continue to think about it.

Although Li Ruizhi usually fucks up a little bit and doesn't do anything serious, he hasn't heard of him doing anything hurtful. Sending his father to death is beyond the scope of ordinary bad things, and I don't think he should be so ruthless.

Geng Lang will finally find a reason for himself, and his heart will settle down a little. But then he remembered that this master's usual performance was just a disguise, and what his temperament was, there was no reference from previous experience.

His thoughts were like a battlefield where two armies were fighting, violent and chaotic. So much so that people outside came in many times, reported to Li Ruizhi, and then obeyed the order and left, without noticing.

Before he could come up with a clue, there was a loud bang not far from Gaozhou City. Looking back from the top of the courtyard, I saw a brilliant firework in the sky, which could be seen clearly from afar.

Geng Lang didn't know why, and looked around blankly. In his ears, he heard Li Ruizhi in front of him whispering.

"It's coming!"

He was about to open his mouth to ask, when there was a loud noise outside the city gate.

"Kill!"

The shouts of killing in the sky suddenly sounded, and through a high city wall, it still penetrated into the ears and shocked people's hearts.

Geng Lang was taken aback.

Someone attacked the city of Gaozhou? At this time?

No wonder Lao Tzu is in trouble, Li Ruizhi has no time to help, it turns out that there is a bigger crisis here.

He no longer doubted Li Ruizhi's intentions, but began to worry, worried about whether he could defend the gate of Beicheng with just one of the soldiers and horses under his command.

When he was anxious in his heart, his eyes unconsciously swept over the room, but the whole person was stunned.

Li Lang General, Qi Lang General, Tong Lang General...... When did they come over? Huh~ General Qi and General Wei are also there?

General Geng Lang was already dizzy, and the generals in this room gathered, he had been thinking about his mind just now, and he didn't find out until now.

When he saw General Zhao, the number two person in the army, he finally came back to his senses.

Except for General Yang, the number three person who was arranged by Li Ruizhi to sit in the big camp in the army, it can be said that all the powerful generals who were loyal to the city lord Li Yongchang were concentrated here. With this lineup, if you can't keep the North City Gate in the end, it is also due to strength, not a light enemy or lack of preparation.

He was shocked in his heart, and was about to understand the current situation with the generals he knew well, when suddenly there was a burst of exclamation and noise outside.

"The gates of the city have been breached! The gates have been breached! ”

"The gates of the city cannot be guarded, and the armies of the Holy Empire have come in! Run for your life! ”

When Geng Lang heard this, his jaw fell to the ground.

So fast? Just kidding!

It's only been a long time since the shouts of killing sounded, and even if it's a small earthen city, it's impossible to immediately capture the city gate as soon as it is launched.

Unless there is a mole! Geng Lang will immediately react and find the most correct answer.

He was in a hurry, but suddenly noticed something unusual.

Why did everyone seem to have expected this, and they must not be surprised and panicked, as if it was not their own city that was breached?

I was distracted just now, as if I had missed something terrible.

"Tong Langjiang, what's going on?" He finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked the generals around him who had a lot of conversation.

Tong Lang couldn't figure him out: "What's going on?" ”

"Why is the city gate broken, and everyone is not in a hurry at all?" Geng Lang will be anxious, not because of the city gate, but because everyone is confident, and he is ignorant.

Tong Lang will be even more strange, and said, "In a hurry? Why the hurry? Didn't the young city lord say just now, let's just plan, lead the people of the Holy Empire into the ambush, and then ...... Ha~ I understand, you kid was distracted just now, and I didn't hear the arrangement of the young city lord. ”

Tong Lang will be halfway through speaking, but he came to his senses and stretched out his hand to Geng Lang General.

Li Ruizhi, who was in front, raised his head, glanced this way, and then turned to other places.

He looked at General Zhao.

"The plan went well, the enemy has fallen into the game. Even if they find something strange now, they can't help themselves. In my opinion, we don't need to continue to hide, we might as well all get out. General Zhao, what do you think? ”

He expressed his opinion, and finally consulted General Zhao's opinion with a respectful attitude.

General Zhao nodded, agreed, and said: "What the general said is right, now is the time to compete in strength, instead of hiding behind, it is better to go to the front to cheer for the sons." ”

Li Ruizhi respected him very much, and he also reciprocated the favor by giving the newly appointed general enough face.

"General Zhao is familiar with the military and has rich experience, and I want to hand over the next big battle to General Zhao."

General Zhao paused, looked up at him, and said, "The last general obeys the order." ”

General Zhao was trapped in Lianyun Restaurant, because the situation was unclear, and he still had scruples in his heart, but he didn't have anything to do with those people. Li Ruizhi wanted to liberate him, and he didn't even need to send a single soldier, just let someone run to inform him and let him know the current situation in Gaozhou City.

General Zhao, who had no worries, immediately showed his original sharpness, controlled the scene with his backhand, and arrested the people who took the lead in making trouble.

After doing all this, it only took a short time, and then he set off to the north of the city to meet Li Ruizhi.

On the way here, he issued a series of orders, and the soldiers who summoned him scattered like dandelions in the wind.

Arriving near the North City Gate, he had just stepped into the secret contact point that Li Ruizhi had told him, and the generals who had received the order continued to enter the gate almost with their back feet.

General Zhao's ability to lead the army and the strength of his control over the army can be seen from this.

Li Ruizhi asked General Zhao to command the battle, not only out of respect for him, but more importantly, out of trust in his ability.

He knew very well in his heart that although he had a dazzling appearance before, in the offensive and defensive battle of the North City Gate, the protagonist was definitely not him.

But what he didn't expect was that the protagonist was also not General Zhao.
