Chapter Twenty-Four: The Battle Begins
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. ”
Although Shen Yongchang was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Zhang Kun would be the first to stand up.
Hearing that Zhang Kun automatically applied to carry out this task, Shen Yongchang made a decision and directly decided on the candidate, what Zhang Kun said was not unreasonable, after all, the pressure to defend the city in this way would be relatively less.
"Zhang Xingzhi, I am waiting for your triumph, waiting for you to come back, waiting for the Shen family to get through this difficulty, your contribution is so great, I will double your Yulu, set off quickly, I look forward to your good news." ”
After listening to Shen Yongchang's words, Zhang Kun hugged his fists and retreated, and after a while, there was a neighing sound of horses in the courtyard, and Zhang Kun set off non-stop.
"Next, we need to execute it in several parts. ”
At this time, Cheng Xu stood up, and it has always been him who makes suggestions.
"First of all, send additional troops to guard the City Lord's Mansion, and then, leave the five elders in the Shen Mansion to wait for news, and the rest of the people will all go to the City Lord's Mansion, the army will not be able to fight for long, after all, most of the troops are civilians, not cultivators. Half of the Shen Mansion's guards were taken away to support the City Lord's Mansion, leaving half here to wait for news. In the end, he asked the Wang family for cooperation and sent his family members to the Wang family for temporary refuge to avoid accidents. Even if we fail, at least the children can be kept, and the fire of the Shen family will not be extinguished. ”
As soon as Cheng Xu finished speaking, everyone felt the pressure, this is a battle that only succeeds and does not allow failure. Succeeded, the Shen Mansion was no longer a threat in this Meicheng, and if it lost, the pattern of Meicheng was completely changed, and the Shen family was in a catastrophe. This is a pure gamble, but the stakes are a bit big, and the bet is a lot of fresh lives, but Shen Yongchang has no choice, he must make this gamble, and he can't get out.
As soon as the meeting ended, Shen Yongchang went to discuss with Wang Jingshan.
Originally, the two of them had some friendship, but now, the Shen Mansion brought him two large boxes of jewelry, and the Wang family happily agreed to help accommodate the Shen Mansion's family. And promised that once the form is not right, the Wang family will send someone to escort these children out safely, as for what will become, this is not within the scope of the Wang family's consideration.
After that, Shen Yongchang listened to Cheng Xu's advice and ordered all the soldiers to rest and stand by, recuperate, and prepare to meet the challenges of the Zhao family at night. Half of the Shen Mansion's guards were also dispatched to the City Lord's Mansion. Even the secret guards secretly cultivated by the Shen Mansion went directly to the main battlefield of the City Lord's Mansion.
If the Zhao family attacks the City Lord's Mansion, then those people from the Shen Mansion can immediately rush to the City Lord's Mansion to help, and once the Shen Mansion is attacked, because someone is defending, the City Lord's Mansion will also have time to send people.
However, a little change happened on the side of the Shen Mansion, Shen Yongchang handed over the task of guarding the Shen Mansion to his eldest son Shen Long, Shen Long wanted Shen Ruoruo to go to the Wang family with his family, but Shen Ruoruo and her mother Chen Yue were unwilling, they also wanted to live and die with the Shen Mansion.
Ling Jin and Liu Fatzi did not leave, although it was dangerous, but Ling Jin thought that this was a good opportunity to practice, the sword in his hand could finally come in handy, the results of ten years of sword training can be tested today, at this time, Ling Jin was actually a little excited. As for Liu Fatzi, he should have refused to leave for the sake of the girl in front of him, besides, he has also cultivated spiritual power and has a certain combat ability. By the way, Xiao Xiyue didn't leave, and was still standing next to Ling Jin and hugging Ling Jin's thighs at this moment.
In the past few days, Xiyue has become more and more dependent on Ling Jin, maybe it is because of the same breath, or Ling Jin spoils her too much, and she has any requirements to meet her: change a new dress, buy a rock sugar gourd, or buy some gadgets, Ling Jin has satisfied her, not only that, in the past two days, Ling Jin has almost taken the little girl to visit the entire city. It's nice for such a cute little girl to accompany her to play, and Ling Jin also wants to see all kinds of things, and sometimes the two of them will rush to play with the gadgets that Ling Jin bought.
Not only that, these two days are just playing, but his cultivation has not fallen at all, and now he is about to reach the middle stage of dark energy, this cultivation speed is amazingly fast, of course, this is also related to his own cultivation method, as soon as he breaks through, he is not far from the middle stage of dark energy, not to mention the acceleration artifact of Xiyue.
Xiao Xiyue's intimate appearance with Ling Jin made the Shen Mansion full of envy, who doesn't like such a cute little girl, it's just that this little girl is only close to Ling Jin. Even if Shen Ruoruo gave her delicious food and fun, she would ask Ling Jin's opinion, which made Shen Ruoruo roll her eyes at Ling Jin many times. At least, now the little girl will call Sister Ruoruo.
"Ling Jin, do you really plan to let Xiao Yue'er stay here, it's too dangerous here, otherwise we will send her to the Wang family, it will be safer there, and when this crisis is over, we will take her over." What do you think?"
Heard Shen Ruoruo's words. Before Ling Jin could answer, the little girl took the lead. She let go of the little hand holding Ling Jin's thigh, ran to Ling Jin, opened her hands, and blocked Ling Jin behind her, like a chicken protecting an eagle, so cute that it made people laugh.
"Sister Ruoruo, you are not allowed to rob my brother with me!"
The little girl looked serious.
Ling Jin touched her head from behind and picked her up.
"It's okay, this little girl just stays here, maybe no one will attack here."
After Ling Jin finished speaking, he hugged the little girl and went back to his room.
In order to put the little girl to sleep, Ling Jin sat on the bed, held the little girl in his arms, and took out some story books from his Dragon God Temple that he had purchased in the book pavilion before.
Since the little girl knew that some children would sleep only if their parents told them stories, she also pestered Ling Jin to tell her stories, but it was out of control, if Ling Jin didn't tell her stories, then she would have a flat mouth, looking at Ling Jin with a pair of big eyes, her eyes were full of begging, and there seemed to be tears rolling in her eyes.
Ling Jin couldn't resist this kind of gaze the most, so he had to tell her a story every time before going to bed.
In this way, little Lorian fell asleep quietly in Ling Jin's arms, and Ling Jin entered the state of cultivation in this way.
Before you know it, night is falling, and the wind seems to be colder tonight than usual. The soldiers have risen, and tonight they will be greeted by a very difficult battle.
The moon was quietly obscured by dark clouds, the flags on both sides of the city gate rustled in the night wind, and the soldiers stationed outside the city gate could not bear the sleepiness, secretly narrowed their eyes, yawned, but his mouth never closed again.
Enemy, here it is!
