Zhou Ning is not quite sure whether this "Han joins the army" is Han Xin, a soldier who has moved through the ages. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 When I looked back through the dark night, the two young men were also looking over from among the Chu army bandits. Zhong Liwu pointed at him with his finger, lowered his voice and said something, and he could vaguely hear the words "Yingbu" and "Huan Chu". At this time, he and Lu Xiangsheng had already run to the corner of the street, and when they turned around, the two young men had already walked into another alley and disappeared.

Two minutes later, hundreds of soldiers of the Beifu Army hurriedly circled around under the leadership of a partial general, and the leader was the bearded officer he met at the mouth of the canal.

Seeing the greetings, Lu Xiangsheng briefly described the situation just now, and stretched out his hand to the mansion behind: "The thieves are there, catch those people in front, and the chaos in the city can be solved." ”

The bearded officer was refreshed when he heard this, and hurriedly led his soldiers into the alley in front.

After a while, there was the sound of clanging blades in the alley, and soon fell silent. A few minutes later, the bearded officer walked out with an ugly look on his face and shook his head.

The search of the Beifu Army was ultimately useless, and when the search passed, except for a few thieves who had no time to evacuate, the dozens of thieves disappeared without a trace.

This clue has been broken before it can be caught.

However, it is not without good news, in the mouths of several thieves who were caught, they interrogated the two leaders who led the army to lurk into the city this time, one of them was indeed Han Xin, and the other was Xiang Yu's cousin Xiang Zhuang, this person was the first swordsman in Western Chu, and his swordsmanship was very exquisite.

In the next day, someone who was already lurking in the city commanded a group of Chu troops to constantly create chaos everywhere, Zhou Ning and Lu Xiangsheng suppressed the riots in various parts of the city, but the effect was not great, but several relatively large fires have been temporarily extinguished.

Zhou Ning frowned slightly, the other party has obviously been active in Yangzhou City for a while, Han Xin's strategy is naturally extremely profound, the strategy is attacking, after a period of operation, what is laid in the city is a big net, relying on his own strength alone, I am afraid that it will be difficult to capture the other party's rules of conduct.

Near the south gate, thousands of warriors were digging trenches and setting up pitfalls with spikes and covered with mud and grass.

To his surprise, Zhou Ning saw Kou Zhong and Liu Yu, who were leading a dozen Three Dragons Gang members out of a riotous alley in the distance.

As soon as they saw Zhou Ning, these two boys with dust on their faces immediately stepped forward happily and saluted, "Hello big brother!" ”

Zhou Ning came to them, leaned over and hugged them, then glanced at Kou Zhong a little strangely, and said, "Your martial arts have improved again!" Attaboy! ”

Kou Zhong and Zhou Ning hugged each other and said with a smile: "Compared with the eldest brother, it is far behind, but Xiaoling and I are indeed about to touch the threshold of the innate realm, and with a little luck, we can reach the innate realm." Ha, I haven't seen him for just a few days, and the eldest brother has already beheaded Yingbu and has become a big hero who is famous in Yangzhou City, both civil and military. ”

Zhou Ning shook his head and said, "It's just a little bit of fame, by the way, why are you here?" What about Koling? ”

Kou Zhong said with a smile: "Xiaoling just went back to rest, the three brothers of the first world, the big war is coming, I can't watch the eldest brother go to the battlefield alone, right?" ”

Then he told the story of what he had done in the city in the past few days.

Zhou Ning frowned, looked at Kou Zhong and Liu Yu who were smiling happily, and said helplessly: "It's really nonsense." You don't know how powerful that thief is......"

"But...... We're strong too......"

The three of them chatted as they walked, and after talking about what they had seen on the battlefield and Zhou Ning was made a city gate guard, Kou Liu and the others listened nervously and sometimes a little excited.

After a while, only the sound of military trumpets near the southern and western gates could be heard, and the sound of war drums sounded slowly, as if coming from the distant sky.

"Here we go again!"

Liu Yu frowned and looked at the city gate in the distance. After a few days of defending the city, even the elite Beifu army had a low morale.

After a while, the drums of war stopped again, and silence returned to the surroundings.

Kou Zhongqi said: "Why don't they attack the city in one go, and keep bluffing, what do they want to do?" ”

Liu Yu said: "The siege of the city is the most taboo, and the defense of the city is also the most taboo, we must let them have some movements, whether it is as an activity or as a drill, only in this way can we maintain morale." ”

Zhou Ning looked at Liu Yu with some surprise, this future Emperor Wu of Song is worthy of being a war wizard, and he actually understands this. What he said is not wrong, in war, the psychological factor of people must not be ignored, and it is the same in ancient and modern times.

As he said, if this continues, the morale of the defenders seems to be a problem...... Zhou Ning looked at the south gate and couldn't help frowning.

…………

"The overlord has sent a secret order, so that we can find a way to control the situation in the city, it is best to find a way to control the city gate, and in the next few days, we can break the city from the inside and outside!"

In a quiet courtyard in the west of the city, Xiang Zhuang walked in happily, holding a note in his hand.

Han Xin was wearing a cyan Confucian robe, and he was sitting cross-legged at the moment, with a small stove in front of him, lighting a fire, cooking wine there, raising his eyes to look at Xiang Zhuang, and said calmly: "Oh, I think that the Heavenly Master is ready to take action in person, and strive to kill Xie Xuan." ”

At this time, he looked south, looked at the sky again, and said in a calm tone: "I originally thought that the city should be broken in two days, but I didn't expect it to be delayed until today." Look at the many arrangements in the city, there must be a soldier in this city. ”

"A master of soldiers?" Xiang Zhuang was stunned, then smiled happily and patted him on the shoulder, "Hey, surnamed Han, although you are a little annoying, but when it comes to military attainments, how many people in this world can compare to you?" Why are you thinking about it so much, we have been so happy these days, and the city is in chaos, even if we lose Huan Chu, it can be regarded as completing the task, isn't it......"

Han Xin shook his head, vaguely feeling that things in Yangzhou City might not be so simple this time. It is also because of this that when he and Zhou Ning looked at each other at the entrance of Mingyue Lane in the west of the city just now, they always had a feeling of thorns in their backs - as if they had seen an old enemy.

He didn't put his feelings into words. At this point, the wine is already boiling. Han Xin picked up the wine jar unhurriedly, poured a full glass of wine for Xiang Zhuang, took a glass of wine himself, drank it, and said slowly: "The situation in the city is far from enough, these chaos can be suppressed with just a thunderbolt, haven't you noticed?" In the past few days, the city is full of horse pits, thistles, and some city defense equipment, which have not been seen since ancient times. In the city, there is a great soldier...... According to the informant, there is a chance that this person is Zhou Ning. ”

Xiang Zhuang looked startled, stood up, and exclaimed, "No, are you sure?" Not so long ago, this man was just a scholar. ”

"Nine times out of ten." Han Xin said with a solemn face, "The soldier master kills, although this person does not have the killing spirit of the soldier, but to be honest, I can't see through this person." By the way, what about Zhong Lifu? ”

"He and the people of the Great Ming Sect are rushing over from the fire."

While he was talking, Zhong Liwu opened the door and hurriedly walked in, and after entering the courtyard, he looked at Han Xin with a solemn expression: "Our people were caught by Zhou Ning, and there was a soft bone that revealed our identity." That's right...... I just got the news that he was the one who killed General Yingbu. ”

"Oh?" Han Xin and Xiang Zhuang stood up at the same time, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

"First Yingbu, then Huan Chu, good skills, Zhou Zhongdao!"

Han Xin's eyes narrowed slightly, and after a while, he smiled gently, the candlelight flickered, the light and shadow shook in the courtyard, and in the night wind, Han Xin's voice could be faintly heard.

"Looks like we're going to meet this great talent, huh...... Where does he live? ”

There was silence in the courtyard for a while, and only after a while did a sound come: "East of the city, Xiantao Lane, opposite Lu Huiqing's old house." ”

Zhong Liwu's eyes lit up, and he pressed the handle of the treasure knife in his hand: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, how about going tonight?" ”
