This battle repelled another attack by the black warriors, and the defenders on the city wall had already thrown themselves to the ground with Li Qi's admiration, and Li Qi's name spread among so many people for the first time, and it didn't take long for the thousands of people gathered under the entire city to know Li Qi's name.

Before today, Li Qi hadn't thought about using his real name to show people, but when he had a goal in his heart, he also needed to create some reputation for himself, and the people around him said that he was a demon, especially Yu Jiuling, he always felt that Li Qi's body hid an old demon who had been cultivating for thousands of years.

Otherwise, how can he read people's hearts, how can he see everything so thoroughly?

"I've sent scouts out."

After Li Qi came down from the city wall, he went to find Xiahou Zhuo, and the first thing he said was this.

Xiahou Zhuo looked at him and asked, "Is Prince Tanwu's army coming?" ”

Li Qi smiled: "How can you guess accurately." ”

Xiahou Zhuo said: "Are you thinking that if Prince Wu's army arrives, you will leave immediately, the first Prince Wu looks down on the Jianghu guests, and hates the rebels even more, before dealing with the black warriors, he may not be able to do the things that first arrest these righteous and brave people who defend the city, and second, even if Prince Wu doesn't do that, you will become cannon fodder, and he will let you be at the forefront." ”

Li Qi nodded: "As long as Prince Wu comes, we must go." ”

Xiahou Zhuo was silent for a moment and then asked Li Qi, "Are you already planning to go to Yanshan Camp to join Yu Chaozong?" ”

Li Qi was stunned, he smiled wryly, and did not answer directly.

Li Qi has a pair of eyes that can see through people's hearts, and Xiahou Zhuo has a pair of eyes that see through Li Qi's heart, as if Li Qi's every move can't hide from him, and any of Li Qi's thoughts are not hidden in his eyes.

"Look at the ugly way you laugh."

Xiahou Zhuo let out a long breath, he knew that there were some things that he couldn't force himself, even if he was ready to pave a sunny avenue for Li Qi, but this road may not be without danger, his background made him better than others to see through those so-called upper-class people, no matter how talented and excellent Li Qi is, in the eyes of those people, he can only be a chess piece, if he is out of the control of his hand, then this chess piece can become an outcast.

"You actually think more than anyone else, and you know whether your choices are good or bad."

Xiahou Zhuo said: "Everyone has ambitions, they are different, I just want to guard the frontier, I can't let the Central Plains calm down, so I will do my best to keep the Central Plains from foreign invasion, this is my ambition, and your ambition is to make the Central Plains prosperous again...... Di'er, I just want to say one thing to you, no matter who you choose as your starting point, you must be cautious, Yu Chaozong is not like a person who is bound to achieve great things. ”

Li Qi nodded: "I know that Yu Chaozong has many shortcomings, and he is also indecisive in temperament, but relatively speaking, he is the best choice for Jizhou." ”

Xiahou Zhuo smiled helplessly: "Actually, my original plan was to take you to the frontier, although the sun and the moon are at war with the black warriors, but at least there is not so much intrigue, and there is no need to worry about dying in the hands of your own people all day long, the most unfortunate, I think if you don't come to the frontier, go to my father's side, with your talent, you can also be glorious...... But you, you don't know how to calculate people, you are a little passive, you only fight back after others calculate you, those people under my father, all of them are old vixens, if they really value you and start to calculate you seriously, maybe you don't even have a chance to fight back. ”

He got up and walked to Li Qi's side, patted Li Qi on the shoulder and said: "It's still the same sentence, since you chose Yu Chaozong, then go, but don't be stupid and talk to people to dig out your heart and lungs, you just said that Yu Chaozong's temperament is a little weak, in fact, it may be a disguise made by him, don't trust people too much, people who are weak on the surface, maybe."

It's feminine. ”

Li Qi thought about this sentence carefully, nodded and said, "I know." ”

The two of them looked at each other, and then they both laughed silly.

"Prince Wu will definitely come."

Xiahou Zhuo said: "I know that because you said your real name today, you need to have some reputation, at least in the future, you can raise the banner of Li Qi, and some people can come to take refuge." ”

Li Qi smiled: "It's still a guess from you." ”

Xiahou glanced at him and said, "Stupid ......."

He said to Li Qi: "I have already sent someone out yesterday, as long as I find the whereabouts of Prince Wu's army, I will report it immediately, I think for you." ”

Li Qi hummed again and nodded vigorously.

Xiahou Zhuo raised his hand and rubbed it on Li Qi's head: "It's grown up." ”

Li Qi laughed.

That night, the black warriors once again stormed the border pass, but the Chu army was already prepared, and the fight was fierce, which lasted for two hours, and the black warriors once climbed the city wall to start hand-to-hand combat, but in the end they were still pressed down by the Chu army.

It was not until dawn that I could see that there were corpses all over the city.

Shinshu Seki.

Yu Chaozong was inspecting the city defense on the city wall, and his cronies ran over and said in a low voice: "Big brother, the second boss has come up, and his other masters have been plotting for a long time last night, and it is estimated that they may have to return to the Yanshan camp in advance." ”

Yu Chaozong nodded and said, "Got it." ”

After a while, the soldiers of the four Yanshan battalions carried the stretcher to the city wall, and Bi Datong on the stretcher looked guilty, looked at Yu Chaozong and said apologetically: "Big brother, you look at my uncompetitive body, I am a little unaccustomed to the soil and water at this point, I had diarrhea all night last night, and I can't even walk today." ”

Yu Chaozong looked at him with concern and said: "Don't come up if you're not in good health, I'm here to defend the city, you go back and rest, I'll let Lang Zhong come over and show you for a while." ”

"Big brother...... I don't want to hold you back, everyone else. ”

Bi Datong became more and more apologetic, and said in a sad tone: "Otherwise, I will go back to the cottage first, I heard that Prince Wu's army will soon arrive in Daizhou, if he takes the opportunity to attack our Yanshan camp, I will have a good preparation at home, and I will not even have a home." ”

Yu Chaozong thought about it seriously and said, "It's okay, you can go back first, I'll let Lang Zhong go back with you, and you can take care of it on the way." ”

The joy in Bi Datong's eyes flashed, and he said in his heart that when I go back, it will be difficult for you to enter the gate of the cottage again.

As soon as he was about to speak, he saw Yu Chaozong embarrassed and said: "But the city defense needs troops, if you go back, the men and horses in your village will stay, and there are enough teams left in the stockade, and they will be handed over to you for command." ”

Bi Datong's face immediately changed, he didn't expect that Yu Chaozong would leave his people.

"Big brother, the people in the village are all the original third and fourth people, and I can't command it."

Yu Chaozong said: "You are the second master, who dares not to listen to you, if someone does not respect the order, you can act directly according to the rules of our cottage, there is no need to send someone to discuss with me, they are disobedient, you will beat their board, if you are not obedient, you will cut off a few heads, you can always deter." ”

Yu Chaozong waved his hand and said: "The matter is so decided, you take your pro-military camp back, help me guard the cottage well, and after I defeat the black warriors, I will go back and celebrate with you." ”

Bi Datong's mind turned a thousand times, and he said in his heart that he didn't lead a team

If he goes back, if Yu Chaozong lets his team fight the black warriors, won't he consume his team?

But after thinking about it again, most of the people in the stockade have their hearts on his side, the 30,000 horses who came to Xinzhou Pass this time, half of them are Yu Chaozong's and half are his, and there are more than 40,000 troops in the stockade, if Yu Chaozong goes back in the future, there is no way to take him, besides, how can his people be so easily subdued by Yu Chaozong?

He was also afraid of Yu Chaozong's suspicion, so he nodded and said: "What the eldest brother said is that the big battle here needs enough troops, so I will leave all the people and horses in this village to the eldest brother, and I will take the pro-military camp back." ”

Yu Chaozong snorted: "Go back with peace of mind and guard the cottage." ”

Bi Datong said a few more words of apology, and then asked people to carry him down the city wall, and there were more than 1,000 people in his own barracks, all of whom were good at fighting, escorting him out of Xinzhou Pass and back to Yanshan.

On the way, Bi Datong didn't need to install it anymore, he sat in the carriage and calculated, after going back, he would first open the treasury in the village, take all the things hidden by Yu Chaozong, and then rearrange the defense, Yu Chaozong would not be able to fly back to the Yanshan camp even if he had wings.

"Boss."

Lang Zhong climbed into the carriage from outside, carried a bowl of medicine and asked, "Do you want to drink some medicine?" ”

This Lang Zhong is also Bi Datong's person, and it was because he didn't believe in this Lang Zhong that Yu Chaozong and others went to Qianqian County to find their own people to treat their injuries.

Bi Datong waved his hand: "Put it aside, just put it on a show, Yu Chaozong asked you to come back with me, most of them can't trust you." ”

Lang Zhong nodded and said: "The boss, the big boss really can't trust me, in the past year or so, no matter what, I don't need to prescribe medicine." ”

Bi Datong hummed and said, "It's okay, you don't have to be so trembling in the future, and we don't have to pretend anymore after we go back." ”

Lang Zhong smiled and said: "Acting in front of Yu Chaozong is really hard, and I always feel that I have been seen through by him." ”

He looked back at the car door and said, "Yu Chaozong won't send people to catch up." ”

Bi Datong shook his head and said, "If he has the courage to kill me, will he wait until now?" That guy, full of hypocrisy, is actually looking ahead. ”

He looked outside the carriage and shouted, "Zhou Sheng, you come in." ”

Zhou Sheng is the leader of Bi Datong's personal barracks, and after he came in, he asked, "What are the instructions of the master?" ”

Bi Datong said: "Lang Zhong is afraid that the Yu Dynasty Sect will send people to hunt us down, do you think the Yu Dynasty Sect has the courage?" ”

Zhou Sheng laughed and said, "If Yu Chaozong wants to kill the master, he has to pass my level first." ”

Bi Datong laughed: "Loyalty is commendable, you will be one of the masters in the future." ”

Zhou Sheng said: "But, he passed." ”

"What?"

Bi Datong was startled.

Lang Zhong suddenly raised his hand, picked up the bowl of medicine and poured it on Bi Datong's face, the potion burned Bi Datong's face as if there was some smoke, Zhou Sheng drew a knife and stabbed it into Bi Datong's heart, and the knife twisted back and forth a few times.

Zhou Sheng said: "I'm sorry to be in charge, you have been bribing the cronies around Brother Yu, but you don't know, we have long been Brother Yu's people." ”

Lang Zhong said: "Big brother pretended to believe me, but he still deceived you after all." ”

He held down Bi Datong's body, and Zhou Sheng stabbed him one by one.

After a while, Bi Datong was silent.

Zhou Sheng made a look, Lang Zhong got out of the carriage first, and said outside the carriage: "The second master is unwell, no one is allowed to disturb!" ”
