124 The Empty City Plan
Lan Qingyue was holding Shaoguan's corpse in her arms, still squatting there, staring at Shaoguan who was lifeless in her arms, Lan Qingyue's heart was mixed. I only felt that my eyes were swollen and painful, and my heart seemed to be missing a corner, and after a long time, I saw him smile bitterly, but you walked cleanly.
He also has most of the responsibility for this matter, if he can be more alert and discover this fact earlier, he will not make the enemy so arrogant, that is, at least he must save Shaoguan's life.
Things went on their track, but no one could rejoice. Although the civil strife has been resolved, it is only a matter of time before they fight with the thieves of the Western Continent, but their hearts are a little heavy.
Most of the night has passed, and after tossing for a long time, Lan Qingyue only feels tired like she has never felt before. He raised his head, and everyone looked at him with blank eyes, and the scholars stood in a row in front of him, prepared for any more accidents. The soldiers also stood not far away, waiting for him to make a decision.
Lan Qingyue put Shaoguan in his arms on the ground, his face was so peaceful, he looked as if he had fallen asleep, but his face was slightly paler than usual. Lan Qingyue took off her coat and gently put it on Shaoguan's body, and then got up from the ground.
The bits and pieces of their relationship over the years were filtered in his mind like a picture, and in the blink of an eye, Shaoguan's voice and smile were still echoing in his mind, but what was lying in front of him was a corpse that had lost its temperature.
Xu stood a little fiercely, he only felt that the stars were spinning around his head, and he was able to stabilize his body only after the scholar's quick eyes and hands helped him. There were three people lying on the ground, they were originally the generals of the dominant party, but in the blink of an eye, they became a pile of white bones, which couldn't help but make people feel a little sad in their hearts.
The more than 100 soldiers brought by Shaoguan were full of sorrow, they were mostly taken care of by Shaoguan on weekdays, and the relationship between them and Shaoguan was like that between Lan Qingyue and Shaoguan, and they were brothers and colleagues with each other. Seeing Shaoguan die in front of them, they were naturally full of grief in their hearts.
Shaoguan is generous on weekdays, treating all soldiers equally, and Shaoguan's death is also a big blow to them. The sword confrontation with him before was only because he threatened the general's life, but they didn't believe that Shaoguan was such a person in their hearts.
The whole story was clear, and they were finally relieved. Before a turbulent heart could retract its belly, what they saw was the fact that Shaoguan died tragically in front of them, which was really unacceptable.
However, on the basis of facts, it is not possible to ignore their lawless behavior for this reason, and the boss's blatant provocation outside the account must not be lightly punished. And among this group of people, there must be a spy sent by the master behind the scenes to hide, if left unchecked, it will become a big disaster in the future.
Lan Qingyue ordered people to take these people down and keep them in the same tent, and no one was allowed to leave easily. The uncleaned details of the first general were brought under control, so that he could not pass on the news to the people behind the scenes, and they could arrange the next operation.
Let him settle the matter before him and examine these people one by one. On this side, he arranged the affairs behind Shaoguan properly, because it was true that he assassinated the boss, and according to the law, he would punish the nine clans.
And for the sake of him blocking the sleeve arrow for himself, Lan Qingyue passed down the order, no one is allowed to spread tonight's matter, he personally wrote a song to ask for Shaoguan's life, and asked the emperor to reward him for the reason of martyrdom of loyalty and martyrdom, and when he ordered someone to send his ashes to the hands of Shao's father and mother in the capital, Lan Qingyue was really idle.
During this time, the scholar and others have been accompanying him, sitting on the stool next to him and waiting for him to finish the matter. Seeing the lifeless corpse in Shaoguan, they couldn't help but feel a sense of grief in their hearts.
Over the years, although their friendship with Shaoguan is not as strong as that between Shaoguan and the general, after all, they are brothers who have lived and died together. For the past few days, they have shrunk into the big tent day by day, focusing only on the affairs of the people behind the scenes, but they have not paid much attention to the things outside the tent. Shaoguan has reached this point, and they also think that they have unshirkable responsibility.
This is the time for the enemy's defenses to be relaxed. Even if they had guessed that the Assassins they had sent had been killed, they would not have expected that they would choose to attack at this time.
The scholar found a fan out of nowhere, and it was exactly the same as the one he had used before. His suggestion coincided with Lan Qingyue's thoughts, if he didn't take this opportunity to take revenge and go back, he would make those Western Continent thieves think that he was easy to bully. There is also a sword in the chest a few days ago, although there is a possibility of leaking secrets from his own side, but this revenge cannot be avenged.
The scholar's original intention was for him and Meng Hu to lead troops to attack the enemy camp, although Lan Qingyue granted their request, but asked that he must take it this time. They should not be too sure in everything, although they are dangerous, but they must also be aware of unexpected situations or enemy ambushes.
couldn't resist his insistence, and Lan Qingyue said cruel words, if they didn't agree, then this sneak attack would be stopped. The shrinking and frequent assassinations in the past few days have made these people extremely angry in their chests, and they must take the opportunity to kill a few more Western Continent thieves to vent their anger. It's just that there are still people in the army who need to be guarded, and under the controversy, Lan Qingyue decided to take Rat Jiu and Menghu to sneak attack, leaving a scholar to pretend to be him in the tent and guard the base camp with Lao Xiong.
Taking advantage of the night, the three of them divided into three teams and led 100 people each, and marched in three different directions towards the place where the Xilu camp was located. Lan Qingyue repeatedly explained to the other two that she must be extremely cautious along the way, especially Menghu's temperament, and she must hold herself back.
There was no movement along the way, and the spies sent to inquire about the news had not yet returned, such a silence was unusual, and even the soldiers parallel behind them felt a hint of unusualness. Under Lan Qingyue's order, everyone slowed down and moved towards the direction where the Western Continent army was stationed little by little.
As with the situation he had encountered, so did the other two armies, and the quiet night of such a quiet night gave people a hint of unreality, except for the occasional sound of two crickets chirping in the grass, which gave a little more comfort to the heart. All three of them have the same attitude, and they can move at a speed that can be called turtle walking.
The col ahead obscures the view, and if it were used for ambushes, it would be very effective. Lan Qingyue made a gesture and ordered the soldiers behind him to hide in place, the enemy situation was unknown, and they should not act rashly.
He was about to investigate for himself, when he suddenly felt something move around him. He was alert, and was about to draw his sword to stab, but he saw a disheveled head pop out, and when he looked closely, it was the soldier he had sent to explore the way.
