The passage into the port was guarded by two old men, although they were wearing armor and holding weapons, but they were not very agile, so that the injured Xie Kaige couldn't help but wonder if they could stop him if he forced himself to rush through the pass.

"Where are you coming from, and what are you doing here?"

"We landed on the island under the instructions of the General, and this is a token of the General. ”

Xie Kaige handed over the token that Yang Fengqing took out to the old man on the left, and when the old man heard that it was the name of the general, his sluggish eyes flashed, and he took it and carefully identified it, but he really couldn't recognize whose token it was.

"I'll take you to the lord of the city, come with me. ”

"Thank you, old man. ”

Not long after entering the city, Xiang Fanjuan and Xie Kaige found a lot of weirdness.

Some children followed them not far behind, chattering about something, and the only people they met on the way, except for women, who were older than the old man who had brought them into the city, sat in front of their doors.

When I saw Xie Kaige, I was first surprised, then I would take a few more looks, and then I would be puzzled and talk in a whisper.

Xiang Fanjuan asked out loud: "Old man, why are there only the old, weak, sick and disabled in the city? ”

The old man who was walking in front turned his head, observed the faces of the two of them a few times, turned his head, and said slowly: "They have all gone to the West Devouring City." ”

"The West Devouring City, the North Forest and the Middle Forest are at war?"

"Beilin has long ceased to exist, and now this place is called Tiance, and the West Devouring City is the city of Tiance. Not only Tiance, but the four southern cities of Zhonglin had all become Tiance's territory, but later Shangguan brazenly attacked Tiance, and now the situation is critical. All the young men in Tiance are on the west side of the city and the upper part of the city. But it was soon over, and the general had landed on the island and rushed to the front line of Shangcho City, and it would not be long before we could be reunited. ”

"What?!Shangguan has attacked you?!And the general-"

Xiang Fanjuan's reaction was much stronger than Xie Kaige's, because of the violent ups and downs of her heart, her face suddenly became painful. When Xie Kaige shouted at her, he looked at her worriedly, and when he saw that it was as he expected, he heard Xiang Fanjuan's words later, and hurriedly grabbed Xiang Fanjuan: "Let's not think so much, let's heal your injuries first." ”

Xiang Fanjuan's shocked face quickly turned into helplessness, and when she saw the different meaning in Xie Kaige's eyes, she nodded lightly: "Yes, now I can't protect myself, and I still want to do so much." ”

After the old man finished speaking, he continued to bow his head and move forward, he heard what Xie Kaige and Xiang Fanjuan said, but he didn't think much about it when he heard it.

He was thinking about the same thing as the rest of the city behind him, when their loved ones would return.

When they walked to the City Lord's Mansion, even the gate of the City Lord's Mansion was full of middle-aged and elderly people who were old and not very agile.

Walked into the city lord's mansion and found the city lord in the main hall with something written on his head.

"Tell the city lord that these two people claimed to have let them enter the city by the general, as well as the general's token. ”

The city lord looked up, wasn't that Jin Ritian?

At this time, Jin Ritian has a different temperament than before, and this temperament complements his whole person.

Others don't know the inside story of the arrival of the general, how could he, as the person who received Luo Daguang and his party, and personally participated in Qiu Hongshen's pretending to be the general to inspire the soldiers of Tiance, how could he not know what was going on?

Bypassing the bookcase, he hurried over: "Show me your tokens." ”

Xie Kaige took out the envelope that he had taken out once before and handed it to the front. Jin Ritian had already arrived at their side, took the envelope with his own hands, and after opening it and reading it, the indifference on his face dissipated. swept the two of them and looked at Xiang Fanjuan more: "I'll order someone to take you to Shangqi City." ”

"Thank you. ”

"You're welcome. ”

......

Liaocheng in Liaodong, the city is still billowing smoke, but that does not prevent the military and civilians in the city from enjoying together.

Yellow-skinned people poured into the streets to sing praises to the court, or to offer the soldiers their precious food leftovers, and so on.

At the east gate, there was a soldier every three steps on the tower, and they were all watching the army that was moving away.

To be more specific, it should be said that the gaze is gradually moving away from the cavalry next to the army.

Ying Zuodong and several subordinates were on the side of the avenue, and did not urge his subordinates. The vanguard army has set out, they are the middle army.

He turned his mount and looked at the majestic and magnificent Liaocheng city wall, and an inexplicable happiness and excitement welled up uncontrollably in his heart.

After watching for more than ten breaths, he tugged on the reins: "Go." ”

"Yes. ”

......

When they heard the chaotic noise, the Shi family on the stone tower invited Shao Chenghao to come up. But it's useless to invite him up, he only has more than 10,000 people in his hands, and the defenders of Chiyuan City are less than 20,000 people, if they give up the stone tower and attack rashly, they don't need to think about it to know what the result will be.

In their increasingly solemn gaze, Chang Shanjun pushed the house all the way, and finally arrived two miles away in front of the stone tower.

Changshan's army stopped and began to reorganize the formation in the wide field, and some soldiers continued to demolish the houses under the cover of shield soldiers.

"General Shao, what should we do now? If we let them clear a road that leads directly to the bottom of the stone tower, we will only have less than 30,000 men, and they only need to charge once before our defense line will be broken. ”

"Where did Childe go? I kept watching the house he went into, but I didn't see Childe come out until the house was demolished. ”

"Didn't the imperial court send other reinforcements?"

Shao Chenghao's eyes have been on the Changshan military front line and said to the Shi family that the last house Yang Fengqing walked into, no, it was back and forth between the military front and the ruins, he wanted to find Yang Fengqing's figure, but he didn't know where Yang Fengqing was.

"I've said so many times about reinforcements that I don't want to say more. As for what to do, don't worry, Childe will show us the way. You just need to hold the stone tower, and I'll go down first. ”

Shao Chenghao didn't wait for the Shi family to respond, and ran down the tower.

The Shi family looked at each other, and Shi Xingyu picked up a long knife placed in the scabbard from the weapon placed on the side and tied it behind him.

After tying it tightly, he picked up the bow and arrow on the side, and walked between the gaps in the planks: "It's useless to think so much, let's think about how to retreat from the enemy." ”

Shao Chenghao ran under the stone tower, and ran to the back of the stone tower without stopping.

Behind the house, more than 10,000 of his current subordinates were found.

At this time, they were no longer the sloppy when they first arrived here, and a new set of military uniforms and sharp weapons had already been worn on them and pinched in their hands.

Shao Chenghao didn't know what he was going to say, so he simply didn't say anything, stood at the front of the army, poked his head out and looked at the front where the noise was getting closer.

......

Seeing that everything was as usual, standing in the center of the army, directly surrounded by thousands of guards, and indirectly guarded by more than 10,000 soldiers, Li Xu's gloomy face finally receded because he had specially seen the soldiers who were killed in the chaotic retreat, and said to himself with a smug smile: "You made everything before, right?" I remember that when I was in Hulu City, your strength was not so strong, to be honest, your strength made me feel a little terrible. ”

"But the march is a battle between tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people, I don't believe that you alone can capture or even kill me in the midst of ten thousand armies!"

"I'll order my subordinates to attack the stone tower later, I'll see if you can hold back it!"

Looking behind him, a hundred steps away from him, he was pressed by several soldiers to a soldier whose clothes were red with blood. His hair was scattered to cover his face, and he looked very much like Yang Fengqing from his body alone.

Feeling the gaze coming from nowhere, Li Xu turned his head to scan, but he turned around and didn't find anything abnormal. He was even more proud, he was sure that Yang Fengqing, who was hiding in the shadows, saw his plan.

Boom –

The last row of houses collapsed with a bang, in front of Changshan's army, until the stone tower was already a flat river.

"General, there is no obstacle ahead, can you attack the stone tower?"

"Wait!"

Li Xu beckoned behind him, and several soldiers surrounded the bloody man in the middle, and slowly stepped forward, until he crossed in front of him, and several exclamations immediately came from the stone tower.

"I think you all know who he is, and if you surrender, I promise that he will continue to live, but you dare to resist, not only him, but all of you will have to die a tragic death!"

With that, press your hands forward.

The reorganized army did not rush forward as before, but moved forward step by step in an orderly manner. When they took about ten steps, their steps were uniform, and the sound of roaring footsteps and dense figures made the stone tower silent.

Phew-

"He's not a child, kill me!"

The silent stone tower suddenly flew out arrows that were visible to the naked eye, but no matter how many arrows there were, it was useless to break through the shields of those shield soldiers at the front of the Changshan Army.

Qiang –

Li Xu jumped off his horse as soon as the arrows sounded, blocked in front of the red figure, and cut off the bow and arrows with a sword.

"Well, since you want him to die, I'll let him die in front of you, you have to watch it!"

Several combined yells came from the stone tower: "Don't!"

Li Xu would listen to them, turned around and slashed at the red figure standing alone behind him.

"Childe!"

When the blade was still a foot away from the red figure, Li Xu felt a huge sense of crisis that he had never felt before, and in this only momentary time interval, he didn't have time where the crisis came from.

You must know that there are thousands of guards around him, and these thousands of people were carefully selected by him before he came here.

When the blade of the sword was only half a foot away from the red figure, his eyes widened suddenly, and he leaned back with all his might, trying to exert force under his feet, but for some reason he couldn't get up at the first time, so he had to shout hoarsely: "Kill him for me!"

He couldn't figure it out, he couldn't figure it out.

This person is a resident of Chiyuan City who he asked his subordinates to catch, and he has seen the face of this person with his own eyes, except that his figure is somewhat similar to Yang Fengqing, whether it is his face, temperament and eyes, he is 108,000 miles different from Yang Fengqing.

Torture, sprinkling blood on his body, and tying him up, he watched every step of the way. In the end, after completing all the steps, he let the most powerful guards escort the man who was used to pretend to be Yang Fengqing.

He was sure that this man hadn't left his sight since he had confirmed him to be a citizen of Chiyuan City.

But why?!Why did he confirm that it was not Yang Fengqing's man, it was Yang Fengqing?!Why did he look like that?!Why did he obediently let him torture, why-why-

He had too many questions.

Li Xu's yelling made his guards fail to react, because his current body movements were too weird.
