Chapter 118: Siege (7)
"That Miss Beitang, this town of Beiguan is not my alone, if you rob it. I promised, and neither did the people. What's more, Miss Beitang, you were originally from Zhenbeiguan, how could you bring outsiders to fight your hometown. ”
Biluo was stunned by his words for a while, this guy actually has the face to mention the people of Beiguan Town.
"The people of Zhenbei Pass can't wait for you to get out of here. Bi Luo said coldly.
Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "You can't say that, I'm also a genuine Qin official." For the sake of the people, I swear to death that I will not pass the north of the town to you. ”
These righteous words made Biluo speechless for a moment, but Li Qiutong smiled and said: "City Lord Zhang, what you mean is that as long as I convince the people of Zhenbei Pass, you will hand over Zhenbei Pass without any complaints." Really?"
"Yes, I, Zhang Xiu, have always been an official who thinks about the people. Zhang Xiu said this, but her face was not red at all, as if she was so taken for granted.
"That's okay, it just so happens that the people of Zhenbeiguan are also very confused about who I am. Let's go out to that square and talk to everyone to see who is qualified to be in charge of Zhenbei Pass. Li Qiutong suggested.
"Absolutely. Zhang Xiu agreed without saying a word, Qin Guo has a good control over Zhenbei Pass, and that group of people also knows that if Zhenbei Pass is separated from Qin State, then what they eat and use, and when the time comes, Qin State will directly block Zhenbei Pass, no one will want to live, and any smart person will know how to choose. When the time comes, these few people can still kill these hundreds of thousands of people?
Biluo wanted to say something, but Li Qiutong stopped her directly. turned around and walked out with Zhang Xiu. Standing at the door of the chamber, on the high steps.
"General Guan, you go and tell Zhu Long to let in all the people who can be put in. Biluo, didn't you say before that there were any other patriarchal families, invite them all over. Li Qiutong turned around and ordered.
"Yes. ”
After speaking, Li Qiutong looked at the scenery below lightly, while Deng Zhanxuan and Baihu stood behind him. At this time, the white tiger became smaller again, about the same size as an ordinary tiger.
"Lord White Tiger, why have you become smaller?" Li Qiutong said curiously.
The white tiger twisted his head, "You take care of me." ”
Li Qiutong smiled helplessly, this white tiger's temper is really a bit arrogant.
Then there was a noisy sound below, and countless people from Zhenbeiguan crowded in. On this day, they were very dazed, a group of troops inexplicably broke into Zhenbei Pass, and they heard that it was the eldest lady of the Beitang family who brought them back. Confused, they could only follow the crowd to the gate of Zhenbei Mansion.
Among them, there are three people with obviously different clothes walking in the front, a white-haired old man, who is Donghong who has just returned from the north city wall, the other two are a thin middle-aged man, wearing a set of brocade clothes, very eye-catching, and the other is an elegant and mature woman, wearing a light red dress, that beautiful face, has not been eroded by the years at all, but the charming eyes show her unique temperament, if you look carefully, you will find that she is somewhat similar to Zhu Yan'er.
Biluo and Guan Yu also returned to the high platform.
After a while, the square was crowded with people, and Li Qiutong initially estimated that there were at least tens of thousands, and there were many more people outside who could not enter.
Seeing that there were almost no more people, Li Qiutong looked at Zhang Xiu, "City Lord Zhang, how about you say a few words first?"
"Then you're welcome. Zhang Xiu smiled politely, stepped forward, cleared his throat, and took out a horn from behind him.
"Everyone, be quiet, all right. I'll explain to you about today's events. Our Beitang General's daughter broke in with a group of people. said that he wanted to take all the people in Zhenbeiguan to rebel, and asked me Zhang Xiu to hand over Zhenbeiguan, who am I, Zhang Xiu, how can I let you rebel with this group of crazy people, so I will fight on the basis of reason, although I am only a civil official, but I want to protect you and protect Zhenbeiguan. Speaking of this, there were a lot of boos from the crowd below, but Zhang Xiu didn't care at all and continued to talk about his own.
Biluo shook his head helplessly and said, "I didn't know that this guy was so good at making it up, and he should have killed it with one arrow just now." ”
Li Qiutong didn't care, "If he wants to say, let him say it." If we want to stay here, we need the approval of the people. It's good to be able to explain it. ”
"By the way, who are the three leaders in front of you?"
"They are what I call the patriarchal family, and they are all the families who built Zhenbeiguan together with the Beitang family back then. The one in the middle is called Donghong, who is the current head of the Dong family, and is responsible for the mineral development of the eastern district in Zhenbeiguan. The one on the left is called Xiyun, who is the head of the Xi family and is mainly responsible for the management and logistics of the city. The one on the right is called Nan Yue'er, who is the head of the Nan family, and they were in charge of the guards of the Nancheng District and the vigilance of the inner city before, but it was only the intervention of the Qin State, so that now the Nan family is now only managing the security of the inner city. Moreover, she is Yan'er's aunt. ”
Li Qiutong silently looked at the people below, not caring at all what Zhang Xiu was saying.
"I hope everyone can know that the Qin State is your greatest reliance, if you betray the Qin State, then Zhenbei Pass is about to usher in the terrifying anger of the Qin State, you must think about this clearly. Zhang Xiu finally finished speaking, retreated, and looked at Li Qiutong with a treacherous expression.
Li Qiutong smiled and didn't care, just took a deep breath, walked to the high platform, and gathered Wu Yuan.
"Hello to the people of Zhenbeiguan, my name is Li Qiutong, and I used to be an unknown little general in the Tang Kingdom. As for the purpose of my coming to Zhenbeiguan, I think that guy has already said it just now. And I don't hide it, I fell out with the Tang State because of something, so I rebelled out of the Tang State with my army, and my soldiers followed me out of their hometown, left their own country, and we must find a place to settle as soon as possible. At this time, Biluo, that is, your Miss Beitang, she proposed Zhenbei Pass to me, and also gave us a detailed introduction to all the situations in Zhenbei Pass, so we came, I want to occupy this city, this is my purpose, of course, I can also say that I want to rebel. ”
"To be honest, I didn't figure out how to convince you to join me in the rebellion. So I don't say anything big, Biluo said that the people of Zhenbeiguan want their own lives and want to break away from the rule of Qin, well, although I don't have my own city, I have a strong economic ally, and they can completely restore the economy of Zhenbeiguan and get out of the control of Qin. ”
When Li Qiutong said this, there was already a commotion below, and many people had already called Li Qiutong's name.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhang Xiu hurriedly shouted: "You have to think clearly, if you take refuge in this person, you will rebel, and when the Qin army arrives, you will all die." ”
Li Qiutong smiled and continued: "That's right, we will indeed be enemies of the Qin State. But I Li Qiutong can promise to everyone, as soon as I enter Zhenbei today, I Li Qiutong is a person from Zhenbei for life, I admire the selfless dedication of the ancestors of Zhenbei, and I also envy the courage of the people of Zhenbei, I am willing to dedicate the rest of my life to Zhenbei Pass, as long as I Li Qiutong is still in one day, Zhenbei Pass will never be oppressed and controlled by anyone. ”
Zhang Xiu suddenly roared: "Why are you, my Qin soldiers are strong and strong, and it is easy to destroy you." ”
Li Qiutong looked at the crowd below and said confidently: "With that group of troops who are willing to fight the world with me and swear to the death without fear." ”
Zhang Xiu sneered: "How strong can your army be, when it encounters the 100,000 army of my Qin State, there is only one way to die." ”
"And what about me. As he spoke, black and white light suddenly flashed alternately on Li Qiutong's body, and an eternal flood of desolation was released from the stick behind him without fear. Zhang Xiu, who was just a civil official, lay directly on the ground under this momentum.
"Show up, Holy Yang Dragon, Extreme Yin Jade Dragon. ”
Two rays of light, one black and one white, shot straight into the sky, and the entire Zhenbei Pass was shrouded in this black and white light. The white light was blazing, but the black light was extremely cold.
From the huge black and white disc in the sky, two handsome and mighty dragons flew out. A dragon is as white as snow, it is the dragon of pure yang - the dragon of the holy yang to the dragon, and a dragon is as black as ink, it is the dragon of pure yin - the jade dragon of extreme yin.
"The air outside was so comfortable. ”
"Brother, the outside world is really beautiful. The two dragons chatted excitedly, completely unconcerned about the shocked humans below.
"I, Li Qiutong, although my strength is not the first in the world, I am also worthy of the name of the top of the martial arts. With a sonorous voice and a suffocating momentum, Li Qiutong told the people of Zhenbei in the most direct way that he was qualified to protect them.
"Is that the breath of the Heaven and Earth Divine Beast?" Guan Yu was also shocked.
The Blue Dragon Glaive Knife shook slightly, and Guan Yu's heart heard the voice of the Green Dragon, "That's right, that's the real Heaven and Earth Divine Beast." On top of Tobu, the Divine Beast clan is divided into four levels, from top to bottom, they are the Heaven and Earth Divine Beast, the Four Directions Divine Beast, the Totem Divine Beast, and the Earth Spirit Divine Beast. ”
"Is the strength of the Heavenly Earth Divine Beast the strongest?"
"No, the level of the divine beast only symbolizes the nobility of the divine element and bloodline, but the strength is also related to its own training. Although Li Qiutong's Yin and Yang Double Dragon is a heaven and earth divine beast, but their cultivation period is not long, in terms of strength, it can't be compared with me, the white tiger, Xuanwu, this is actually the same as the martial artist, a thousand years ago, there was a stone monkey, gathered the aura of heaven and earth and was born, although it is an earth spirit beast, but he has gone through a lot of hardships, hard work to learn the strengths of each family, and finally his strength is also one of the best among the divine beasts. ”
"I see. ”
At this time, the people of Zhenbeiguan also seemed to have made a choice, and Li Qiutong's words and his promise reached their hearts. For the people of Zhenbei, there is nothing to die in battle, they are only aggrieved by living under the rule of others. And the appearance of Li Qiutong brought them new hope.
The people below shouted Li Qiutong's name loudly. It's just that the faces of the three elders in front of them were very heavy, and after exchanging opinions with each other, Donghong loudly stopped the excited people.
"It's all quiet. The patriarch spoke, and everyone could only be quiet. Then the three of them stepped on the steps together and walked to Li Qiutong on the high platform.
