Section 119 When the city breaks

Yecheng at night is pitch black and quiet like a ghost domain, only the flickering fires on the city's head still carry a little popularity. The daytime battle eventually ended with the withdrawal of troops by both sides. Cao Ang's last-minute dispatch of troops undoubtedly saved the morale of Cao Jun. And the tragic situation of the Liujia Divine Soldiers made the defenders of Yecheng really see the so-called "immortal art" of the national teacher. Under the sorrow of the rabbit and the fox, the eyes of all the soldiers looking at Yu Ji were full of contempt and vigilance. As for morale, it plummeted. However, after the war, Yuan Shu himself did not trouble Yu Ji. The reason is that Yuan Shu feels that Yu Ji's "immortal art" is still somewhat useful, after all, it will not be his Yuan Shu who acts as a meat bullet.

Although Yu Ji barely escaped today, he was somewhat self-aware, knowing that after the farce during the day, his reputation in the city was probably going to be smashed. Therefore, after escaping back to the house in disgrace, Yu Ji hurriedly summoned his henchmen to step up the creation of fire and thunder in case of emergency, while continuing to dig tunnels in order to escape from the chaos.

As the saying goes, cats have cat roads, and dogs have dog roads. And when Yuji's followers were busy in the mansion, Su You, the general of Huwei in the camp west of Yecheng City, was also discussing the future retreat with his subordinates. It is said that Su Youben was Yuan Shao's general, and after Yuan Shao died in battle, he was named a general for supporting Yuan Shang as emperor. When Yu Ji let Yuan Shu enter the city, Su Youzheng and his generals drank and had fun in the mansion. Faced with Yuan Shu's department, which suddenly entered the city, Su You, who was caught off guard, chose to surrender without thinking, and was given the title of "General Huwei" by Yuan Shu. However, before General Su Youhuwei's hat was hot, Cao Cao's army had already approached the city and besieged Yecheng. And the farce staged at the South Gate during the day made Su You and the others even more frightened.

Facing the dancing flames on the oil lamp, the chief bookkeeper Wang Fan carefully broke the silence. "General, according to today's battle at the city gate. Yu Ji is afraid that he will not be reliable. ”

Su You thought to himself, anyone who has eyes can see that Yu Jina Lao'er is unreliable, and you still need to say this. But it's better for someone to start than to stare all the time, so Su You sighed along with Wang Fan's words, "The country is going to die, and there will be demons." There are demons like Yu Ji in Yecheng making waves, and Cao Cao is eyeing him outside, how can this be good? ”

"How else can I deal with it, I rushed into the essence house and cut off the head of the demon road!" One of the ministries will intersect without thinking. Immediately, it attracted the support of other generals around him. Yu Ji was able to take 700 divine soldiers to "lead the sky to thunder" this time. Who can guarantee that it will not be themselves who will be recruited next time. There is a way to strike first to be strong, and then to suffer. In the eyes of a big boss, there is no better way to solve it once and for all than to cut Yu Ji.

However, as the commander-in-chief, Su You doesn't care who will "lead the thunder". What he was worried about was that Cao Jun on the other side didn't care about Yu Ji's so-called immortal art at all. And Yuan Shu now seems to have been frightened by Cao Cao. Don't say that the city has counterattacked, I'm afraid that I can't even defend the city. Moreover, Cao Cao is also known for being a good slaughterer, once Cao's army breaks through the city, the defenders will be killed by his pit. At that time, even if Yu Ji is cut, what is the point. Therefore, in the face of the crowd's excited subordinates, Su You just glanced at the leader, and did not say anything with a cold face.

Seeing this, Wang Fan, who was on the side, seemed to have seen a little way, so he cleared his throat and shouted, "Yu Ji is just a lackey." Yuan Shu regards us as grass mustard, why do we regard it as the main thing! ”

Wang Fan's voice shouted directly so that the generals present were dumbfounded. Those who were closer to the door curtain even peeked out. However, since Su You had the courage to gather people, he was naturally prepared. So he himself cast an approving look at Wang Fan. And after getting Su You's approval. Wang Fan's courage couldn't help but become even bigger. But he swept around the tent and said, "At this time of life and death, we should obey the destiny of heaven." Abandon the darkness and turn to the light! ”

"Don't bewitch the people with evil words!" A subordinate general sitting opposite Wang Fan stood up suddenly, pointed at his nose and scolded him.

Su You saw that it was Sima Xiaosuo, another subordinate of his subordinates. Thinking that there were rumors that this person had some dealings with Yuan Shu's generals, Su You's face darkened a little. However, Su You will not have an attack immediately, he still has to see the reactions of other generals before making a decision. And just as Su You was waiting for the other generals to stand in line, a loud bang suddenly came from outside the tent.

The deafening roar frightened one of the cadres in the big tent to their knees instinctively. Everyone including Su You reacted in the center of their minds, "Didn't you curse Yu Ji just now, and you will be punished by God at this moment?" However, before Su You and the others could stand up, a loud bang sounded in their ears again, completely scaring the crowd to the ground.

Su You didn't know how long he had been lying on the ground, but he heard a rush of footsteps behind him, and then he heard someone shouting loudly outside the tent, "It's not good!" Not good either! The National Teacher's Mansion is also a thunderstorm! ”

Su You, who finally came back to his senses, immediately struck a spirit, jumped over and got up, and staggered out of the camp with Wang Fan and others. I saw that the frightened soldiers in the camp outside the tent had already become a mess. And in the direction of the National Teacher's Mansion, a raging flame seemed to light up the small half of the night sky.

Duan Emei wore a cloak and a hood, and walked briskly through the noisy crowd. The explosion of the National Teacher's Mansion undoubtedly alarmed the entire Yecheng. In the face of the sudden loud noise, countless people who woke up from their sleep either hid in their homes and shivered, or rushed out of their houses to ask for help. In short, the streets near the National Teacher's Mansion were filled with people running for their lives. And the initiator of this qiē is none other than Duan Emei herself.

It is said that the encounter of the Liujia Divine Soldiers outside Yecheng City during the day not only stimulated the Yecheng defenders, but also made Duan Emei, who was inquiring about the military situation, stunned. She never thought that Yu Ji would let a living person tie a fire thunder and detonate it directly in the battle array, and die with the enemy. With such a cruel style, Duan Emei couldn't help but change her original plan, and instead decided to sneak into the National Teacher's Mansion with Zhu Lin that night and wait for an opportunity. Fortunately, Ji was in a hurry to create fire and thunder, giving Duan Emei a chance to enter the mansion. So after seeing the right time, Duan Emei decisively detonated the explosives in the Fire and Thunder Workshop. There were the two earth-shattering explosions that came before. As for herself, after she succeeded, she took advantage of the chaos to sneak out of the National Teacher's Mansion.

However, Duan Emei had only crossed a street when she felt that there seemed to be an extra tail behind her. So she subconsciously quickened the pace of her feet, but the tail behind her bit unusually tightly. After deliberately detouring two more alleys. Duan Emei suddenly slipped into the crowd and ran. And just when she thought she had shaken off the stalker, two strong winds came from behind her ears. At the last moment, Duan Emei turned over and avoided two points of chasing the cold star. But the hood on her head fell off with it.

"Duan Emei! Sure enough, it's you! The pursuer let out a scolding shout.

Duan Emei stood up and stroked her loose bun, smiled at the other party and greeted, "Lord Monarch, don't come unharmed, right?" ”

"Less nonsense! The fire in the National Teacher's Mansion was caused by you? Jun Yayun gritted her teeth, pulled out a white blade, and pointed directly at Duan E's eyebrows.

"Why did the Lord of the Banner knowingly ask?" Duan Emei sneered, and there were two more scimitars in his hands.

"I won't let you escape again this time!"

"Each other, each other."

The sword and the twin swords sparked dazzling sparks in the night sky. The dance-like battle looks dazzling and magnificent against the backdrop of the firelight, but every blow from both sides is really about killing each other. After fighting back and forth like this for more than 20 rounds, Duan Emei suddenly shook his sword, jumped out and said with a smile, "Monarch Lord You are fighting with Emei here, don't you care about the safety of Immortal Master?" ”

Jun Yayan didn't want to talk nonsense with Duan Emei. But Duan Emei's rhetorical question made her pupils shrink.

Yu Ji jumped up from the couch as soon as he remembered the explosion and rushed out of the house quickly. After seeing that it was the Fire Thunder Workshop on fire. Angry, he hurriedly called his servants to fetch water to put out the fire. However, fires and thunderbolts are flammable, and now it is a dry winter, and once the fire rises, it is not only difficult to extinguish, but has a tendency to spread outward.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yu Ji immediately left behind a group of henchmen who were still fighting the fire, and sneaked away to take refuge in the tunnel. However, as soon as Yu Jicai entered the tunnel, he found that someone had already hid in the tunnel before him. Seeing this situation, Yu Ji couldn't help but turn his face to the person who couldn't see his face clearly, "Bastard! Why don't you go out and put out the fire! ”

The man hiding in the tunnel was drunk by Yu Ji like this. It seems to have been really shocking. Hurriedly got up and hugged his fists and said "喏". But at the moment when he passed by Yu Ji, Yu Ji suddenly felt a stab in his chest. Looking down, I saw that there was an extra blade in the man's hand and went straight to Yu Ji's chest.

"Thou ...... You ......" Yu Ji's eyes widened. With an expression of disbelief on his face, he looked at the strange assassin in the darkness. Apparently he had no idea that he would end up like this. A pair of withered hands reluctantly grabbed the Assassin's arms, as if to retrieve the life he was about to lose.

With a thud, the Assassin drew his blade and the life that remained in his shell, and the old wand fell to the ground, blood soaking the floor. At the same time, the frightened shouts of the people came from outside the National Teacher's Mansion, "Cao Jun! Cao Jun enters the city also! Cao Jun enters the city also! ”

After Su You learned that the National Teacher's Mansion was on fire, he made up his mind on the spot to take this opportunity to open the city and surrender to Cao Cao. saw him draw his sword and stride forward, slashing at Xiao Suo, who was still watching the fire. Xiao Suo, who was caught off guard, was immediately cut off half of his head, and bright red blood sprayed Su You's face. But Su You didn't care at all, but saw that his eyes were shining with fire, and he raised his sword and announced loudly to the generals present, "Sons! The demon Dao Yu Ji has been punished by God! We will comply with the mandate of heaven and open the city to surrender! ”

Su You's subordinates had already been so troubled by the explosion and fire that they didn't know what to do, and seeing Su You's posture of killing gods and punishing Buddhas when they met the Buddha, they immediately had the backbone. They all shouted in response, "Obey the destiny of heaven!" Kaicheng Toucheng! ”

So a quarter of an hour after the explosion of the National Teacher's Mansion, the west gate of Yecheng suddenly opened. Cao Jun, who had already been alarmed, was a little hesitant at first when he saw this scene, for fear that it was a trap set by Yuan Shu, so he did not dare to send troops to approach. But when Wang Fan carried the white flag and sent Su You's blood letter to Cao Ying, Cao Cao, who was in good spirits, immediately ordered Cao Ang and Xu Huang to feint to attack the south and north gates. And he himself personally led the troops to rush into Yecheng in one fell swoop under Su You's response.

Yuan Shubu was already startled by the explosion of the National Teacher's Mansion, and as soon as he encountered Cao Jun's night attack, he immediately fell into a panic. Not long after, the south gate and the north gate also fell one after another. The earth-shattering gongs, drums and horns, mixed with Cao Jun's shouts and killing, quickly covered up the wails of the people. Cao Jun's iron hooves stepped all the way through the long streets of Yecheng, turning the streets and alleys under the firelight into a mountain of blood corpses.

"! Not good either! Not good either! Cao Jun enters the city also! The chamberlain stumbled all the way to bring the news of the fall of Yecheng to the Empress Dowager Liu in the deep palace.

Like the ordinary people in the city, Empress Dowager Liu was also disturbed by the sound of explosions in the National Teacher's Mansion. However, she did not panic like most people, but put on civilian clothes, while ordering the imperial forest army in the palace to strengthen the garrison, and on the other hand, leading Zhen and other harem concubines all the way to the high platform to overlook the situation in the city. At this moment, I heard the report from the chamberlain that Cao Jun had entered the city, and all the concubines and concubines present were disgraced. Several of the young ladies wept uncontrollably.

Empress Dowager Liu glanced at the ladies disdainfully, looking extremely calm, as if this qiē had already been expected by her. saw her eyebrows raised, turned around and scolded the waiter, "What are you panicking about!" ”

Empress Dowager Liu's drink not only frightened the attendant to kowtow and confess his guilt, but also made the concubines and concubines present stop sobbing. Tears are not a woman's only weapon. What's more, even if it is used, it shouldn't be at this time. With this thought in mind, Empress Dowager Liu calmly ordered Yuan Feng, the captain of the Imperial Forest, "Pass the order to the Imperial Forest Army and surrender to the Cao Army." ”

"Mother's ......"

"Do as this palace tells you!" Empress Dowager Liu interrupted Yuan Feng in an unquestionable tone. The latter had no choice but to clench his fists and take the order, turn around and go downstairs to give the order. After the captain of the Royal Forest and the chamberlain left. Empress Dowager Liu looked around at the concubines present and said, "You and the others will quickly return to their respective palaces to wait." ”

Although these women in the deep palace knew that Cao Jun was like a wolf and a tiger, but under the six gods and no owner, the ladies had to temporarily act according to the orders of the Empress Dowager Liu. However, among the dry warblers and swallows, Empress Dowager Liu only stopped Zhen Ji, "Mrs. Zhen, you stay." ”

"What do you command?" Zhen Ji lowered her eyebrows and asked with a pleasing eyebrow.

Empress Dowager Liu stretched out her hand to fiddle with the green silk of Zhen Ji's sideburns, and commanded softly, "It's good to make up, you are the life talisman of the old body." ”

Zhen Ji, who heard the voice of Empress Dowager Liu, raised her head in amazement, and argued in a trembling voice, "Niangniang, the child is the wife of Xianyi, how can you ...... How can you ......?"

"Could it be that you want to learn from that Yu Ji to kill herself?" Empress Dowager Liu looked at her daughter-in-law with playful eyes.

Zhen Ji bit her pink lip and bowed her head silently. Empress Dowager Liu caressed Zhen Ji's cheek and replied for her, "Wouldn't it be a pity that such a flower and moon will die like this." In the face of thousands of troops, men carry swords and armor and fight on the battlefield, while women only need to wait for the boudoir and apply rouge. ”

A book friend asked Zhilan, who occasionally wrote "Destiny", what Liu Hou of "Phoenix Wear" thought. Well, how to say it~~~ Whether it is successful or not, this is also a way to survive. As part of historical deduction, the harem is also a major element. PS, even if there is no Black Luoshen, the Yin family did remarry before her husband died.

Yu Ji: What about the old little theater!

Liu Ding: Who's who, give him a box of bento~~~ (to be continued)
