Li Qiutong silently watched the three elders who came slowly. It wasn't until they walked to the high platform that Biluo stepped forward and greeted, "Grandpa Hong, Uncle Xi, Aunt Nan." ”

Donghong looked at Biluo and said with emotion: "You little girl is really amazing, you actually brought someone to bring your own home." ”

"Grandpa Hong, I ......"

"You don't need to explain anything, I know you're here to close the north of the town. But as the patriarch of Zhenbei Pass, we don't feel at ease about handing over Zhenbei Pass to such an unfamiliar person. Donghong said this and looked at Li Qiutong, "But the current Zhenbeiguan really needs a new leader." General Lee, I have a question for you. ”

"Senpai, you say. ”

Donghong's sharp eyes stared at Li Qiutong tightly, "Since Biluo chose you, I believe that you will definitely honor those words just now." But one thing, you have to understand, Zhenbei Pass is located here, and since hundreds of years ago, it has been the only wall guarding Tobu. I don't care if you have the ambition to compete in the Central Plains and dominate the world in the future, but can you continue to defend this place, resist Qin in the south, and attack foreign enemies in the north, can you do it?"

Li Qiutong didn't think about it for too long, and replied with certainty: "Yes, I swear with my life." ”

After getting his reply, Donghong nodded, "Okay, General Li, Zhenbei Pass will be handed over to you from today, I hope you can remember what you said today." ”

"No, Donghong, have you figured it out. The army of Qin could easily kill all of you. Zhang Xiu shouted in a panic.

However, Donghong didn't care, walked to Biluo's side, and casually pulled out her long sword.

"The people of Zhenbei have never been afraid of power, we are not afraid of battle, and we are not afraid of death. With a swing of the sword, Zhang Xiu's head fell to the ground, and then rolled down the stairs.

"Zhang Xiu has been removed, and Zhenbei Pass will follow General Li Qiutong to the death from today. Donghong raised his sword high.

"General Lee, General Lee, General Lee. The people below watched this scene, and suddenly all the grievances from many years ago dissipated, and all the people were extremely excited. As Donghong said, the people of Zhenbei are never afraid of fighting, never afraid of death, but Zhang Xiu has been coercing them with death, who can bear this, if it weren't for Beitang Mo suppressing the voice of resistance, no matter what you think, what consequences you have, people who dare to threaten Zhenbei Pass have long been understood by the people.

Donghong turned around and walked in front of Li Qiutong with the other two, "General Li, let's introduce it." My name is Donghong, the head of the family, and I am in charge of the mining and utilization of minerals in the eastern district. ”

Then the middle-aged man in brocade also introduced: "My name is Xiyun, the head of the Xi family, and the economy, trade and commerce of the entire Zhenbeiguan are managed by me. As General Li said before, a strong business alliance, I hope to meet them as soon as possible, after all, after breaking away from the Qin State, it will be difficult for us to return to the level of self-sufficiency in a short time. ”

"Master Xi, don't worry, they will bring all the supplies over after a while. ”

Finally, Zhu Yan'er's aunt, "My name is Nan Yue'er, and I am currently the head of the Nan family." At present, I am in charge of the security work in Zhenbeiguan. ”

"I didn't expect the head of the Nan family, a woman, to be so powerful. ”

Nan Yue'er smiled faintly, "Each other, in fact, I'm curious about where General Li's army came in? With these thousands of troops, it is not easy to enter Zhenbei Pass. And I remember that there hasn't been much movement of people in Zhenbeiguan recently. ”

"We came in through the gates. ”

"Nancheng Gate, how is it possible, although it is no longer under my control, it is impossible for that group of soldiers of the Qin State to let you in directly. Nan Yue'er was very puzzled.

"Well, we're calling in. ”

Saying this, the three elders instantly fell silent, and they all stared at Li Qiutong with wide eyes. Although this is their new boss, but the Northern Martial Arts Realm, which his family is proud of, has been broken by others, how can this heart be good.

"How did you do that? With an army of a few thousand men outside the walls?"

"That's not it, we have a total of about 20,000 troops, and the rest are still resting in the outer city. ”

"20,000 people, that's not much. "She used to be in charge of the defense of the southern city wall, and she knew very well the power of it, although it was not as powerful as the northern city wall, but it was not something that could be broken by tens of thousands of people.

"Alright, alright, Satsuki, don't get tangled. You two go and evacuate the people, and then we will go in and discuss the next issues with General Lee. Donghong, the oldest in generation, was the first to accept this reality.

"Alright, let's go in first. It just so happened that I also asked them to inform my military advisor to come over, and we would talk about it carefully. ”

As they spoke, the group entered the council chamber behind them.

However, an uninvited guest happened to arrive at the inner city gate.

Looking at the emptiness of the city wall, Beitang Mo suddenly had a feeling that something was wrong, and with a few soldiers behind him, he broke into the door directly, but unfortunately there was still no one in the sight.

"General, this situation is so weird. ”

Beitang Mo was about to speak, and suddenly a terrifying and powerful aura slowly dissipated in the direction of Zhenbei Mansion.

"Oh no, something happened, let's hurry to Zhenbei Mansion. Before he had time to think, Beitang Mo rushed over directly. The snow-white eagle rose into the air and took him to the north of the town.

Along the way, Beitangmo walked quickly, and the people below only felt a ray of white light passing through the sky.

By the time Beitangmo arrived, the people in the square had almost dispersed. He landed directly in front of the door of the council chamber, the blood on the steps in his eyes, and he walked in without saying a word.

At this time, Li Qiutong was chatting with Donghong, but a violent voice suddenly sounded.

"Can anyone explain to me what the hell is going on?"

Everyone looked in the direction from which the voice came, and a man in silver armor walked in.

"Father. ”

"General Hokudo. ”

Beitang Mo looked at his daughter in surprise and a group of people who didn't know who it was.

"What the hell is going on? Biluo, and Donghong explain to me, who are these people?"

Donghong didn't expect Beitang Mo to come back suddenly, so he could only step forward and explain Li Qiutong's affairs to Beitang Mo one by one. After everything was said, Beitang Mo's expression was very angry.

"You guys collect my things and get out of here, I won't hand over Zhenbei Pass to you, a guy of unknown origin. Beitang Mo said unceremoniously.

"Father, do you know what you're talking about?" Biluo thought that his father would have such an attitude.

As soon as Biluo spoke, Beitang Mo didn't fight in one place, "And you, a girl's family, don't wait for marriage at home, but want to learn martial arts, learn martial arts, now eat inside and out, bring a lot of people to beat your hometown, my Beitang family doesn't have your daughter." ”

"Do you really, think so. This is the first time in the past 20 years that Beitang Mo has scolded his daughter like this, and at this moment, Biluo's heart hurts, a heart-piercing pain. But suddenly a warm hand was placed on her shoulder, and Deng Zhanxuan walked in front of her.

"Leave it to us. ”

Li Qiutong looked at the surrounding situation, and felt a little unhappy in his heart, when he stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "General Beitang, there are some things that you can't talk nonsense. ”

Dong Hong suddenly sensed something wrong at this time, Li Qiutong's feeling had completely changed, no matter what Zhang Xiu said before, and how he questioned him, this young man had always maintained a gentle and humble attitude, but now his body revealed a kind of indifference and anger.

Donghong immediately rushed ahead of Li Qiutong and said to Beitang Mo: "Beitang Mo, we have put up with you for a long time, are you still obsessed." ”

"Donghong, what do you mean?"

"Beitang Mo, this town Beiguan is not a person's thing. Before that, I respected you as the head of the Beitang family and tried my best to assist you. And you, you only know how to fight, you only know how to guard the north, in order to guard the border, you took the entire Zhenbeiguan people to bow their heads to the Qin State, put down your own dignity, you feel that you are thinking about the people of Zhenbeiguan. But do you really understand the people of Zhenbeiguan, Zhang Xiu wantonly embezzled the property of Zhenbeiguan for his own enjoyment, many people's houses are about to collapse, but there is no money to build, Zhang Xiu robbed the people on the street, bullied the people, and acted recklessly, the people want to rebel against the Qin State and resist oppression, but what about you. You only care about how your military expenses are going, and you don't care about the affairs in the city, and a few young people have mentioned to you about the anti-Qin matter, but you are afraid of the power of the Qin state, and soon criticized them and completely expelled them from the army. You are not qualified to be the leader of Zhenbeiguan. The old man Donghong angrily reprimanded this Beitang Mo without leaving any face, and at this moment he finally said Beitang Mo's cowardice without a trace of reservation.

"If you want to rebel against the Qin State, can you afford it? The Qin State blockaded the entire Zhenbei Pass, and even the grain had to be supplied by the Qin State, why did you rebel and take refuge in the Northern War?"

"Beitang Mo, you obsessive bastard, let you take care of it again, Zhenbei Pass must be ruined by you. Today, Donghong will use the power of the chairman of the Zhenbeiguan Senate to remove you. Donghong angrily pointed at Beitang Desert.

"Remove me, I think you are old and dizzy, and handing over Zhenbei Pass to this stinky kid will really ruin Zhenbei Pass. ”

"Alright, don't argue with each other. Li Qiutong said, releasing the breath of the top of the martial arts, and for a while, Beitang Mo felt a momentum full of oppression coming towards him, instantly suppressing Beitang Mo, obviously as a generation of famous generals, but he couldn't even speak at this time.

"This town is in Beiguan, and I, Li Qiutong, am bound to win. If General Kitado is still strongly opposed, then please state your reasons. After speaking, Li Qiutong withdrew the coercion on him

Beitang Mo instantly felt relaxed, although he was still afraid in his heart, he still mustered up the courage to look at Li Qiutong, "You are just an outsider, you have no contribution to Zhenbei Pass, why do you want to give Zhenbei Pass to you, just rely on your few wild lies?"

"A lie, I don't think it's a lie. ”

"Who can prove where you came from, what you have done, why you betrayed the Tang Kingdom, who can know, just by your words, I Beitang don't believe you. Beitangmo's attitude was very resolute, even if his daughter and colleagues chose to believe Li Qiutong, but he wouldn't. It's not that as Donghong said, he Beitang doesn't care about Zhenbeiguan, but he cares too much, the lives of everyone in Zhenbeiguan are on his shoulders alone, he doesn't dare to gamble, and he can't gamble. Whether he is cowardly or cowardly, this weather-beaten general is also guarding Zhenbei Pass and his people in his own way.

"I can prove it. A gentle and kind female voice suddenly came in from outside the house.
