305, kill them one by one!
The two guards went out with the girl named Fufeng, and everyone here knew that they would never see her again.
Xiao Qianchi hesitated for a moment and asked, "Cousin-in-law, just kill this fine work?" "Even if Xiao Qianchi has a gentle personality, it is difficult to really be gentle when encountering such a thing. Moreover, shouldn't you interrogate you if you can ask any useful information when you catch a fine work?
Nangong Mo shook his head, "She is not only a fine work, but also a dead soldier." "It's hard to ask anything from the mouth of a dead man. Even if you ask, you may not dare to believe it. Moreover, this Fufeng was able to lurk in the Yanwang Mansion for so long without attracting anyone's attention, and Nangong Mo didn't think that she knew or participated in too many things.
After solving the detailed work, everyone's eyes turned to Chen. Then look at Xiao Qianchi, the Chen family is the princess of Yanwangfu and Xiao Qianchi's wife. Now that King Yan is no longer in Princess Yan's coma, only Xiao Qianchi can deal with her. Chen looked at the people present in horror, "Husband... I didn't mean to! Auntie, cousin... I know it's wrong, please spare me......"
The expression on Princess Changping's face was a little cold, hearing the words of the Chen family wanting to harm her two little babies, where would Princess Changping still have half a pity for her?
Xiao Qianchi hesitated, and was about to speak when he heard Xiao Qianjiong's angry voice coming from outside the door, "Didn't you mean it?!" teamed up with outsiders to deal with two newborn babies, and almost killed the mother and concubine! A woman like you doesn't deserve to live in the world! ”
Xiao Qianjiong strode in, glared at his eldest brother fiercely with a pair of big eyes, and said, "Big brother, I will never let go of this woman!" ”
Xiao Qianchi sighed tiredly, closed his eyes and stopped looking at Chen, "Third brother, I will deal with it." ”
Chen's heart was cold, and he looked at Xiao Qianchi in a daze. Xiao Qian's invigoration to see death made the Chen family collapse a little, and shouted uncontrollably: "Why do you blame me? I just want to live! When those people outside the city come in, will I die with you? My family is still in Jinling, why do we want our Chen family to accompany the burial of Yanwangfu? Why?! ”
The crowd was silent. Chen's screaming became even more frenzied. It seems that all the grievances and dissatisfaction after marrying into the Yanwang Mansion want to vent out. said that he was lonely and lonely when he married to Youzhou alone, scolded Princess Yan for being harsh and ruthless to herself, scolded Xiao Qianwei and Xiao Qianjiong for disrespecting her eldest sister-in-law, said that Xiao Qianchi was incompetent and sorry for herself, and finally even Nangong Mo scolded together.
Xiao Qianchi waved his hand weakly and said, "Take her down and lock her up, and wait for the concubine to wake up before she falls." Xiao Qianchi couldn't bear to dispose of his wife with his own hands. But Chen's words really made Xiao Qianchi feel cold. Although compared to his cousin and sister-in-law, he is indeed not dedicated enough to Chen. But in the past few years since the Chen family married into the Yan Palace, he respected her everywhere, and never let the concubines have the slightest disrespect and grievances towards her. The mother concubine was dissatisfied with her, and he always spoke well for her in front of the mother. Compared with her two younger siblings, her ability is mediocre, and she is even inferior to her third siblings to keep to herself and be filial to her mother, and he has never disliked her. just thought that it was not easy for her to marry in Youzhou alone, but in the end, she was exchanged for all kinds of dissatisfaction and resentment from her wife.
"Take it down." Xiao Qianchi said.
Chen was forcibly taken down, and her voice of sometimes scolding and sometimes begging for mercy could still be heard outside the door, and the voice gradually disappeared until the person walked away.
Xiao Qianchi was hit hard by his wife, and he didn't come back to his senses for a while. Nangong Mo sighed lightly in his heart and said softly: "Qianchi, cheer up." We still have a lot more to do. ”
Xiao Qianchi smiled reluctantly, nodded and said, "Yes, cousin-in-law." ”
Xiao Qianjiong was angry, "Cousin-in-law, what do we do?" I took someone to slaughter Qi Shuo! ”
A light smile lifted on Nangong Mo's lips, "Don't be impatient." ”
Youzhou political envoy Yamen
Qi Shuo read it with a secret letter he had just received in his hand. The expression on his face became solemn, and after a while, he suddenly got up and said, "Get ready!" Open the gates! ”
The staff standing in front of him was stunned for a moment, and said hesitantly: "My lord? ”
Qi Shuo said: "Wei Junmo commanded 100,000 troops and came towards Youzhou. We must immediately occupy Youzhou City and wait for the arrival of the army of Yichun Hou. Only then did the staff nod, "In that case, Lord Qi, ...... over there in the Yanwang Mansion" Qi Shuo frowned, "There is no news from Fufeng now, but I am afraid that the plan has failed." He sighed and said: "That's it, there is the Lord of Star City, and there is also the String Song Prince, this plan is only a five-five number, it can only be said that it is unlucky." ”
"In that case, please leave the city immediately, or..." Although there are not many soldiers and horses in King Yan's mansion, they are all elite soldiers with one hundred soldiers. A few days ago, the county lord of Xingcheng made a fuss in the Yamen of the political envoy, and now it is shocking to think about it. If the main revenge of Seongjo-gun ......
Qi Shuo pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Let's go, go out of the city first and join General Wang." "Once the army enters the city, what can the people in the Yanwang Mansion do?
A quarter of an hour later, Qi Shuo and his party hurriedly walked out of the yamen of the political envoy and walked in the direction of the city gate.
"Lord Qi, where is this going?" A somewhat familiar voice came to mind behind me. Qi Shuo was stunned for a moment, then slowly turned around and looked at the people on horseback galloping on the street behind him with an expressionless face. The two leaders are Xiao Qianjiong and Nangong Mo. Before the horse could stand firmly, Xiao Qianjiong had already jumped off the horse and rushed towards Qi Shuo. The guards who got up and followed hurriedly stepped forward to block Xiao Qianjiong's way.
Xiao Qianjiong pulled out his waist knife and slashed, "Get out of here!" ”
Qi Shuo raised his eyebrows and sneered: "The old man thought that Fufeng had failed, but now it seems... It's done. ”
Xiao Qianjiong raised his knife and pointed it at Qi Shuo, "Old horseman!" If this son doesn't cut you with a thousand knives, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart! ”
Qi Shuo nodded, "After killing my mother, I really should hate." Haha, it's a pity that the whole world will not say that the old man killed Princess Yan, but only that the princess of Yan Wangfu killed her relatives righteously. ”
Righteous annihilation. ”
"Yes." Nangong Mo sat on horseback and looked at Qi Shuo calmly and said, "It's a pity... Princess Yan is still alive. I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Lord Qi. ”
Qi Shuo is not very disappointed, success is naturally an unexpected joy, failure is also fate. Qi Shuo looked at Nangong Mo and sneered, and said: "The first emperor was very kind to the county lord, but the county lord helped King Yan to plot a rebellion, and he is worthy of being Nangong Huai's daughter." ”
Nangong Mo was not angry, and said lightly: "The people of Youzhou City have no grievances or hatred with Lord Qi, don't Lord Qi also want to bring troops into the city and let them suffer from the troubles of the soldiers?" ”
"The old man is for the rivers and mountains of Great Xia!"
Nangong Mo said: "I am not as noble as Lord Qi, I am here to let the people I value live well." ”
"Cousin-in-law, what nonsense are you talking to him, let me cut this old man directly!" Xiao Qianjiong said impatiently.
Qi Shuo said proudly: "It's not a pity for the old man to die, it's a pity... I'm afraid that the two of them are a step too late. ”
Nangong Mo said: "Lord Qi is talking about the people you sent to open the city gate?" You might as well wait and see if the gates can be opened today. Lord Qi is in such a hurry, is it the reinforcements from Youzhou Guard? Qi Shuo's face turned pale, and the corners of his mouth moved, but he didn't say anything after all.
There were not many soldiers and horses in Youzhou City, and there were only five or six thousand people in total. Although there are far more people than the Yan Wangfu, Xiao Qianchi, Qin Zixu, Nangong Xu, Xingwei Liu Han and others from the Yanwang Mansion each led a group of people to attack first, and quietly took down several city gates. The mansions of the powerful families in the city are also guarded by the government soldiers, and by the time the soldiers and horses outside the city find out that something is wrong, the soldiers and horses on the city wall have all been replaced.
Qi Shuo was escorted all the way to a city gate, and one thousand households and seven or eight hundred households were escorted to stand under the city tower and wait for the arrival.
Nangong Mo turned over and dismounted, and said with a smile: "Eldest son, eldest brother, thank you for your hard work." ”
Qin Zixu said with a smile: "The county lord is polite, it's a matter of duty." ”
"What about the casualties?"
"We were prepared first, and the casualties were not large." Nangong Xu said lightly. Although the people are not as good as the other party, they are unprepared to attack them by surprise. There were also a lot of good things provided by the young man of the string song, and they were able to quietly take the city tower without alarming the troops stationed outside the city.
Nangong Mo nodded and looked at the group of captured generals.
The officers and men in the army are all arrogant, and they are naturally not convinced if they are caught by someone who is so cowardly today. What's more, the person giving orders in front of him still looks like a woman. Someone even raised his head directly and glared at Nangong Mo, but the next moment, the black-clothed guard next to him directly slapped him down, and he was dizzy and had no effort to stare at Nangong Mo.
Nangong Mo walked in front of a hundred households at the front and asked, "Return to the Yan Palace, I will spare your lives." ”
"Phew! has the ability to come openly, and what kind of hero is sneaking. Baihu, who was two heads taller than Nangong Mo, spat and scolded angrily.
"Take it down, kill it."
The two guards escorted the men to the foot of the city wall on one side, and with their swords in hand, they fell a bloody light and then followed the city wall in front of them.
Nangong Mo looked at the other person, "Do you want to descend?" ”
Several generals who were transferred couldn't help but swallow their saliva, completely unexpectedly that the little woman in front of her, who looked beautiful and refined, acted more neatly and domineeringly than a man. Just one sentence, and the person was cut down directly. I saw Nangong Mo looking at them indifferently and said, "I want to defend the city, but I don't have anyone." If you don't surrender, I'll kill everybody. I can't, I have to worry about someone making trouble for me in the back to defend the city in front, and I have to spend food and grass to feed thousands of enemies, right? ”
Qianhe, the highest position, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't believe you dare to kill everyone." "There are thousands of soldiers and horses, and no one cares how many people die on the battlefield. But now they are all captives, and it is ominous to kill them!
Nangong Mo was indifferent, "Try it and see if I dare." Take it down, kill it. ”
Two guards stepped forward and clasped Chiho's arms one left and one right.
"Wait!" The face of the thousand households changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll descend!" He knew that the woman in front of him was really not joking. If he insisted, she would really keep killing.
Nangong Mo nodded with satisfaction and looked at the remaining ones. Many things, once someone takes the lead and then the people in the future don't seem to be so difficult to decide. After a while, several hundred households surrendered their hands, "Obey the orders of the county lord!" ”
"Good." Nangong Mo nodded, and looked sideways at Qi Shuo, "Lord Qi, it's always much better for others to die than to die for yourself, don't you say?" ”
Qi Shuo sneered, turned his face sideways and stopped looking at Nangong Mo.
Nangong Mo didn't care either, and turned directly to look at Xiao Qianjiong and the others, "Qianjiong, Qianjiong, big brother, it's hard for you to defend the city." ”
Xiao Qianjiong waved the waist knife in his hand and said confidently: "Cousin-in-law, don't worry, there is absolutely no problem in handing it over to me." ”
Nangong Mo smiled faintly, thought about it, and then looked at Nangong Xu and asked, "Big brother, how many days can you keep it?" "Among the people present, apart from Xiao Qianjiong, only Nangong Xu has really learned to march and fight. As for Xiao Qianjiong, he is too young and his temperament is really not reassuring.
Nangong Xu pondered for a moment and said, "Three days at most." "Now whether it is the strength of the soldiers and horses, or even the time and the people, it is not good for them, and it is already a blessing to be able to hold it for three days.
Nangong Mo thought for a while and said, "It should be enough." ”
Nangong Xu nodded, "Don't worry." I promise there will be no problems in three days. "As for three days later, it's not something that his ability can control.
The guards of the Yanwang Mansion and the various prefectures added up to three or four thousand, plus the soldiers and horses who had just surrendered, they finally barely managed to gather nearly 10,000 people. But this is still a drop in the bucket for the 100,000 troops stationed outside the city, and trying to fight hard is tantamount to a moth to a fire.
handed over the city gate to Nangong Xu and the others, and Nangong Mo took Qin Zixu back to Yanwang's Mansion. Yan Wangfu is still in a coma
There are also unconscious Princess Yan, Princess Changping who is powerless, and Sun Yan'er, who is pregnant with Liujia. Although Qi Shuo has fallen into her hands, it does not mean that there is no danger in the city.
Back at King Yan's Mansion, Zhu Chuyu and Sun Yan'er immediately greeted everyone with them.
"Cousin-in-law, are you okay outside?" Sun Yan'er asked with some concern, the sound on the edge of the city tower outside could be vaguely heard even in the Yanwang Mansion.
Nangong Mo shook his head, took Sun Yan'er's wrist and probed his pulse before he smiled: "Don't worry, it'll be fine." Your body is different now, you need to rest well. Sun Yan'er nodded and said, "I will take good care of myself, don't worry about me if you have a lot of things." ”
"How's my aunt?" Nangong Mo asked.
Zhu Chuyu frowned and said, "The mother concubine hasn't woken up yet, and my aunt is taking care of her." Even she didn't expect that Chen would do such a stupid thing. If it was usual, she would naturally be happy to see the Chen family make stupidity, but now, Princess Yan's accident is not good for them at all. Princess Yan has been in Youzhou for twenty years, and her prestige among the powerful in Youzhou City is unmatched except for King Yan, even she and Nangong Mo are incomparable. Princess Yan was unconscious at this time, which made the situation even worse for them.
"Let's go in and talk about it." Nangong Mo sighed softly and said.
Outside a small city more than 100 miles away from Youzhou City, 100,000 iron cavalry of Youzhou Wei are stationed here. Wei Junmo sat on horseback, standing in front of the army and looking up at the city tower in front of him. At the entrance of the city, the soldiers guarding the city vigilantly stared at the soldiers and horses under the city tower, and the whole heaven and earth seemed to have a strong aura of slaughter.
Wei Junmo was followed by Lin Changfeng and Xiao Qianwei, who were also sitting on horseback. Lin Changfeng looked at the city tower, raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that this is a ruthless heart to trap Youzhou City." Who is this man with the troops? ”
Jian Qiuyang said with a smile: "There are only a few generals under General Xie, and they seem to be in the army. Xie Li knew that he was going to die, but he had no intention of dragging his subordinates to die together. When they first captured Xie Li, most of his generals had already been sent to besiege Youzhou City. However, it also caused them a lot of problems, and it was clear that every place that intercepted them was staffed by battle-hardened veterans.
"Do they think this will stop us?" Lin Changfeng sneered.
Jian Qiuyang sighed and said, "They don't need to block us all the time, as long as they block until the arrival of the imperial army." ”
Xiao Qianwei frowned, looked sideways at the silent Wei Junmo and asked, "Cousin, what should we do?" ”
Wei Junmo said: "Call over." ”
"General Qiqi!" A fast horse rushed over quickly, and the man on the horse turned over and dismounted and said, "General Qiyu, the enemy army in front has begun to attack Youzhou City." "It's the scout who sent to the front to spy on the news.
Xiao Qianwei's face changed slightly, "So fast? ”
The scout looked at Xiao Qianwei, hesitated for a moment, and said, "In addition, in Youzhou City... King Yan was suddenly poisoned and fell into a coma. The county lord of Xingcheng and the prince of the world first took down Qi Shuo, the political envoy of Youzhou. Now, Xiao Sangongzi and Nangong Gongzi are leading the people in the city to defend the city. ”
"Mother?!" Xiao Qianwei almost fell off the horse, and hurriedly grabbed the reins to stabilize himself. said anxiously: "How could the mother concubine be poisoned?" ”
The scout shook his head, it wasn't that he didn't know, it was just that the inside story of these things naturally couldn't be told in public. Xiao Qianwei also understood this truth, and fixed his mind and said: "With my cousin-in-law and the son of the string song, the mother concubine will definitely be fine." Cousin, the third brother is afraid that he won't be able to last a few days. ”
Lin Changfeng nodded, agreeing with Xiao Qianwei's opinion, "Youzhou City will not be able to hold it in two days at most." Maybe it will only take a day. ”
"Three days." Wei Junmo said in a deep voice.
Lin Changfeng touched his forehead, he didn't know where he got his confidence, and said helplessly: "Even if it's three days, we won't be in time." "Nearly 100,000 troops stood in the way, although they also had a lot of soldiers and horses. However, the veteran who had been on the battlefield for a long time and was familiar with the soldiers and horses, and the average age of dealing with them was not more than twenty-five years old, and they were completely unfamiliar with them who had just taken over the soldiers and horses. Wanting the whole army to go to Youzhou City to relieve the siege of Youzhou within three days is tantamount to a fool's dream.
"Wei Gongzi, what do you have a good idea?" Lin Changfeng asked.
Wei Junmo glanced at him and said indifferently: "I don't have an idea, kill them one by one." ”
