14. Chapter XIII

After a night of chaos, Li Zhangyi, the guard of Lucheng City, was pierced through the heart by a mysterious man in black armor and died on the spot. Li Shuang naturally led the soldiers of the Changfeng Battalion to enter Lucheng.

Although the battle was over, Li Shuang's affairs were not over.

The people in Lucheng were panicked, and the death of the city guard left the Lucheng bureaucracy leaderless, and Li Shuang immediately supported a civil official under Li Zhangyi to serve as a temporary city guard.

And after Changfeng's camp entered Lucheng, the soldiers were strong and strong, no matter who was the city guard, they had to listen to Li Shuang's words obediently. But Li Shuang's focus was not on the struggle for power.

After finishing the affairs in the city during the day, and at night, Li Shuang climbed on the wall of Lucheng and looked at it from afar, but saw that the Xirong army dozens of miles away did not withdraw because of the sudden death of the general Ashinadu.

Li Shuang's face was calm, patting the rough stone on the city tower in front of him silently.

Luo Teng, who was accompanying him, snorted: "Ge Laozi, general, look at this situation, Xirong doesn't plan to withdraw his troops yet!" ”

Qin Lan pondered for a while, and said in a deep voice: "This winter is cold and short of food, and since Xirong has gathered a large army to suppress my Lucheng border, he has made up his mind to pay attention to the fact that he must grab a handful of food." That Ashina Du ......" He paused, thinking about the picture of the black-armored man carrying the head of Ashina last night. Qin Lan admitted that he was hostile to the black-armored man, and he couldn't deny that the black-armored man's actions yesterday were really shocking.

"Although Ashina died suddenly, and Xirong temporarily withdrew his troops to recuperate, they categorically would not retreat back to the city so lightly, but I am afraid that in two days, they will be able to produce another general to serve Xirong."

Luo Teng snorted, "Damn, in the final analysis, this zhang still has to resist." ”

"You don't have to resist." Qin Lan's eyes turned slightly, and he looked at the military camp, "There will be a plan in the end." ”

Li Shuang turned her head and glanced at Qin Lan. Qin Lan followed

Li Shuang said all the thoughts in his heart, Qin Lan's eyelids drooped, his eyes were broken, and he concealed his gentleness: "What the last general thinks, everything is as the general said." ”

Li Shuang was silent.

Seeing that Li Shuang was really thinking seriously about this strategy, Luo Teng raised his eyebrows angrily: "How can this be done!" Isn't this the city we just defended to be handed over to Xijon again! No way! I can't give the land of Dajin to these jackals! ”

Qin Lan pointed into the distance: "Take a look, the large forces behind Xirong have already followed one after another, and the scale far exceeds all our previous estimates. We can only retaliate by delaying our troops, and wait until we join up with our army before we can counterattack. ”

Luo Teng had to argue again, but he gritted his teeth when he looked at the campfires of the Xijon army in the distance.

Can't always ...... Really let all the soldiers of the Changfeng Battalion and the people of Lucheng put their lives on the line to defend this city.

He sighed hard.

Li Shuang's hand on the city wall tightened: "I will think about it, no matter what tonight, I will withdraw the people of Lucheng first." As soon as she turned around, and was about to go down the city wall, Qin Lan stopped her: "General, the subordinates here will handle the affairs properly, you ...... Let's go back and rest and take care of yourself. ”

Li Shuang can't fall, she understands it herself.

She nodded, and walked towards the makeshift tent under the city walls, and just as she was about to step into the tent, Li Shuanger felt a shadow pass overhead, and when she looked up, there was nothing on the high walls, and the soldiers defending the city stood with their backs straight, and their eyes looked into the distance without any movement.

Li Shuang rubbed her eyes, only to feel that she was really tired.

However, Li Shuang did not sleep well this night, the family and the country, the people of Dawn, how to choose, what kind of decision-making, every word she says now, every decision is related to the national fortune of the Great Jin.

I just want ...... The decisions she made could make Dajin's future better.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Shuang woke up, but suddenly received two pieces of news, first the spies hurriedly reported: "General, there was really another general in Xirong last night!" ”

Before Li Shuang's heart could sink, the spy said, "But the general is dead again." ”

"Huh?" Li Shuang was a little unresponsive: "What? ”

What does it mean to be dead again?

"Xijon just established a general last night, but at dawn today, a long pole was erected in the middle of the gap between Xirong's army and Lucheng, and the general's head was hung on the pole. Now there is great turmoil in the Xirong army......"

Li Shuang: "......" she was a little stunned, "I'll take a look." ”

"Back to the general, the head of General Nasijon has been brought back by their sergeant. Now all that was left was the long pole and the rope that tied the skull. ”

Li Shuang was stunned.

She never imagined that she had slept all night after such a torment, but the next day she got such news.

Li Shuang put on his armor and walked out: "Who killed it?" When this sentence was asked, the person who did not use it to report answered, and the appearance of the black armor man appeared in Li Shuang's heart.

Her footsteps paused slightly, and Qin Lan and Luo Teng came in front of her, Qin Lan's face was introverted and did not fluctuate, while Luo Teng was already dancing with his eyebrows and laughing: "General!" The general of Nasijon has been slain again! Hahaha! God has eyes! So that these wolves will not die well. ”

"General." Qin Lan called Li Shuang. Li Shuang nodded in response, turned his head and said, "What about Jin'an?" ”

When she asked, Qin Lan remembered that when he and Li Shuang returned from the woods at night, they were going to Tijin An to ask about the black armor man. Later, when Xirong's army invaded, he was busy, and Li Shuang was even busier, so he didn't have time to take care of the child.

Now that the newly selected Xirong general was killed overnight, it is not difficult not to think of the black-armored man with strange martial arts on the battlefield. And thinking of the black armor people, they naturally contacted Jin An again.

Qin Lan frowned: "My subordinates will ask." ”

Li Shuang went up to the city tower, looked into the distance, the sky was long and long, there was only a lonely wooden pole on the vast earth, the rope on the pole was blown by the desolate wind in the north, it was obviously just such a thin scene, but Li Shuang felt that it was like a banner engraved with "death to the one who passed this", guarding this deer city.

After a while, Qin Lan brought Jin An over.

The little child, with clear eyes, stared at Li Shuang as usual.

Li Shuang squatted down and looked him in the eyes: "Jin An, I have no ill will towards you, you know it, you have special abilities, I also want to keep you by my side all the time, whether it is me or the court in the future, I will entrust you to important use." ”

When Li Shuang said that she would always keep him by her side, Jin An's eyes lit up. But Li Shuang patted him on the shoulder, staring at him seriously and hotly: "So, I want you to be honest with me, can you do it?" ”

Jin An nodded: "My qiē is all yours." ”

Belch...... Although this sentence may sound a little strange, forget it, this kid often says strange things anyway.

"I'm just going to ask you one question today, do you have anything to do with the man with the black armor?"
