Chapter 822: He, There Are Only Three Months Left!
The sun was very bright, wisps of gold, pouring down, reflecting the earth, in this light flickering, Mu Jing finally walked out of the state pastor's mansion, when he looked up, looking at the sun, he seemed to feel that the dark clouds above his head were slowly dispersing.
"It's finally this far!"
He was talking to himself.
It's a tough step.
Countless preparations made in the early stage, all the strength of the Minghou Mansion is pouring out, from the conquest of Jingzhou, to the current point step by step, how much has been paid, Mu Jing is very clear in his heart.
Luckily it worked.
No matter what the reason, Liu Yan still chose to give in.
As long as he gives up this step, the next thing will be much smoother, and if it succeeds, Mujing will get a complete Yizhou.
Woohoo!!
When Mu Jing appeared on the street in front of the mansion, more than ten figures flashed from the alleys in the southeast and northwest, under the eaves one by one, and quickly surrounded Mu Jing's.
"Zhang Huo greets the lord!"
The man at the head knelt down and bowed.
"The Divine Guard meets the lord!"
These more than ten vigorous figures are all the most elite divine guards, each of them is a high-level martial artist with internal strength, proficient in assassination and protection, in the narrow alleys of the city, each of them can be a hundred, even if surrounded by thousands of troops, they can kill out.
"Let's go, let's go home!"
Mu Jing waved his long sleeves, leaving a dashing back, and left directly with the gods and guards.
The corner tower of the governor's house, on the platform.
Liu Yan was wearing a robe, standing on a high place, his straight body looked a little hunched at this moment, his temples were already white, his face looked very pale, there was no blood at all, and a pair of ink-colored pupils were also a little dissipated at this moment.
The person standing behind him is his confidant Dong Fu.
When their eyes saw the back of Mu Jing slowly leaving, Dong Fu couldn't help it anymore and asked, "Lord, do we really let him go like this?" ”
"Or else?"
Liu Yan asked rhetorically: "What can you do with him?" ”
"Lord, such a big trouble, an enemy of the world, I'm afraid there will not be a second time to become our fish and meat on the sticky board, he goes, like a fierce tiger Guishan, Jiaolong into the sea, no matter what in the future, we can't hold him!" Dong Fu gritted his teeth and said faintly.
"Now we can't handle it!"
Liu Yan asked indifferently: "Even if we don't let him go and let him stand under our noses, will we dare to kill him?" ”
"Don't dare!"
Dong Fu's expression of gritting his teeth suddenly became depressed.
If you can kill.
They've probably killed countless times.
The more scheming people are, the more they can restrain themselves and keep their sanity at critical times, and reason will tell them when they should do something, impulsively, and will never solve any problems.
So even though they obviously wanted to crush Mu Jing's bones, they still had to let him go.
Because of this game, they have already lost.
Zhang Ren's soldiers and horses can't come back, Yan Yan's soldiers can't get by, Chengdu City can't last long at all, even if they don't attack, they are besieged from the periphery, and they can't hold out for a month, and they will still be defeated when the time comes.
Throwing in the towel now may be able to regain a little advantage, at least the people they want to keep.
"Mao'an, make an edict!"
Liu Yan said calmly.
"Lord, this crime has been edicted, in Yizhou, your reputation for several years will be ruined!" Dong Fu clenched his fists, and the green tendons on his fists were uneven, obviously suppressing a sense of resentment.
The edict of guilt is usually issued by the emperor, but now that Liu Yan is in Yizhou, he can be regarded as the emperor, and his edict is tantamount to self-destruction of his reputation.
"The road was chosen by a certain family!"
Liu Yan said in a deep voice: "Whether it works or not, now I have tried, since I have lost, I have to accept my fate, my time is running out, what is the use of leaving my reputation, I have to leave enough strength to protect Zhang'er, King Lu's lineage, must not be broken in my hands!" ”
His lineage, inherited from Liu Yu, King Lugong of the Western Han Dynasty, although it is a clan, but across the two Han Dynasty, in fact, there is only one family left.
A family, the most feared thing is the broken bloodline.
When people live, they think about themselves.
Once you know that you won't live long, you have to think about the afterlife, especially the bloodline, and it is the nature of the family to preserve the bloodline.
…………………………
Chengdu Minghou Mansion.
Mu Jing stood in front of the mansion, staring inside, his eyes flashing with a cold glow.
Although this mansion is not as majestic as Hanzhong, it is also a quite powerful mansion, one of the best in Chengdu City, but it is only in the state governor's mansion, but now it has become unrecognizable.
More than half of the buildings burned to the ground.
Although the wolf battalion and the war tiger battalion were launched at the same time, the war tiger battalion was far away in the suburbs after all, and after the siege of the city, because the geography was not familiar, it was surrounded by the streets and alleys in the city, but Pang Xi started one step earlier and immediately attacked the Minghou Mansion.
Although there were 500 soldiers in the Minghou Mansion, they were outnumbered and almost breached.
Cai Yan immediately made a decision, immediately burned the house, and made a posture of dying together, although the tunnel was not opened, it was able to hide some people, which allowed them to escape.
Later, Lei Hu led the army to dare to arrive, and when he saw this scene, he almost frantically extinguished the flames, retained half of the building, and successfully rescued these people from the tunnel, which was really safe.
"The last general, Lei Hu, failed to arrive in time, and his wife almost died, the crime is unforgivable, please punish the lord!"
In front of the gate, Lei Hu knelt down on his knees and pleaded guilty.
"How's Madame?"
"Madame is fine, but ......"
"But what?"
"Commander Zhang is injured!"
"Bastard thing, you can't protect a person, what use do you want!"
Mu Jing and others can act, you are a loyal minister, I am the benevolent lord, and the monarch and the minister are happy, but in front of Lei Hu, he is the most real emotion, anger is anger, he is not Liu Bei, his wife and children are to him, but his family and life, so he directly kicked over and kicked Lei Hu over.
"The last will be guilty!"
Lei Hu also blamed himself, if he could have brought in the troops earlier, he would not have been like this.
"The Lord is angry!"
Behind Lei Hu, the generals bowed their heads, including Hu Zhao, Min Wu and others, they all heard that Mu Jing had left the state pastoral mansion, so they rushed here, and there were also Huang Quan, Zhang Song, Leng Bao, Deng Xian, Liu Bi and other Yizhou generals.
"Get out of here!"
Mu Jing flicked his sleeves, ignored these people, and walked straight inside.
The generals looked at each other, Lei Hu Hu Zhao and the others looked a little bitter, such a big victory, the ability to be festive, but Zhang Ning's hands, there were some flaws, imagine that Mu Jing dared to make a scene with the first master for Zhang Ning back then, and now it is normal to be angry.
"The lord has a natural temperament, although he is angry, but it will not last long, and his temperament is broad, he will not hold a grudge against anyone, you will go back first!"
Hu Zhao spoke: "Although it is said that Liu Yuanjun released the lord from the state pastoral mansion, it is a sign of admitting defeat, and the situation has improved a little, but the soldiers and horses on both sides have not moved, the overall situation has not been decided, and there is still a fixed number, please encourage you!" ”
"Yes!"
When everyone heard this, they all nodded.
The generals of the pastoral army are naturally loyal to their duties, and the generals of the Yizhou army, at this time they have no way to retreat, since they can't turn back, now they can only follow Mujing to the dark.
……
Although the front yard was burned into ruins, the backyard of the Hou Mansion was well preserved, and Mu Jing went straight inside.
"You're back!"
In the courtyard, Cai Yan suddenly looked up, and a familiar and longing figure appeared in front of her, she seemed to feel like an illusory dream, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she didn't care about her interests at all, so she pounced on him directly, hugging his tiger waist tightly, for fear that he would run away like this.
For so many days, she can always be stable in front of outsiders, honor and disgrace are not shocked, Mount Tai collapsed in front of her and her color remains unchanged, because she is Mrs. Minghou, Minghou can't preside over the overall situation now, there will be turmoil in the army's heart, and she can't let the generals feel a trace of panic.
But why shouldn't she worry about her husband in her heart?
"It's all over, it's okay, I promise, I'll never let you be in such a situation again in the future!"
Mu Jing walked over and hugged her gently, this was the greatest comfort he could give, men fight, always hoping to make a woman's life more stable, he can't seem to do it, after all, he still has to take on his wife to bear a thousand burdens.
"Woo woo woo !!"
Cai Yan's hard shell was shattered in an instant, and without the slightest steadiness of Mrs. Minghou, she threw herself into Mu Jing's arms and began to cry.
After half a ring, she came back to her senses and cried out in shame: "Sister Youji was injured in order to save me, you go and see!" ”
Mu Jing followed Cai Yan and entered the wing room.
On the soft collapse, Zhang Ning lay quietly, that quiet appearance, like a begonia flower, but she was very vigilant, because during these days, she needed to maintain this vigilance, Mu Jing entrusted the Minghou Mansion to Cai Yan, but entrusted Cai Yan to her, so she wanted to protect Cai Yan's safety.
The sound of pushing the door in had already woken her up, but when he heard Cai Yan's footsteps, he didn't move, but then a hurried footstep made people quickly stay vigilant.
She clenched the sword hidden under the futon, and waited for the fatal blow to be delivered.
"Does it hurt?"
A faint voice, as if it was the cool water of summer and the warm fire of winter, was warming her heart.
She opened her eyes, and the face that reflected in the depths of her beautiful eyes made her dream.
"You're finally back!"
Her hoarse voice was screaming.
"Well, I'm back!"
Mu Jing opened the futon, uncovered the skirt, looked at her wrapped left leg, and said softly: "I'm sorry, this time I didn't think it through, I promise, next time, I will never let any of you put any of you in danger!" ”
"It's just a small injury, I'm fine!"
Zhang Ning said resolutely.
"And said a small injury!" Cai Yan blamed himself a little: "You almost swallowed up the fire at the beginning, and your feet were so burned, what can you do in the future, it's all my fault, if I run faster, it won't be like this!" ”
"I'm really fine!"
Zhang Ning showed a sweet smile: "I am a healer myself, I know my injuries best, it looks a little serious on the outside, but in fact, the fire poison is not strong, and it will not hurt the muscles and bones, this is not life-threatening."
"Take care of it, since you know that you are a doctor, you should understand when to rest and when not to be strong!"
Mu Jing instructed.
"Hmm!"
Zhang Ning was very tired, and when he heard Mu Jing's comforting voice, he was finally able to sleep unguarded.
"Zhao Ji, you take care of him first, I still have some things to deal with!" About two quarters of an hour later, Mu Jing waited for Zhang Ning to completely fall asleep, then let go of her hand holding her, and said to Cai Yan: "Although we are safe, but this matter is not over yet, these days, the game is at a critical time, we can't make the slightest mistake, I'm afraid I can't take care of her personally, I promise, after this matter is over, I will spend more time with you!" ”
"Go ahead!"
Cai Yan is always so intellectual and submissive.
………………
"Lord!" Hu Zhao had been waiting outside the courtyard, and when he saw Mu Jing coming out, he hurriedly walked up, he had been waiting here, just to get a clear understanding of the first-hand news of the state pastor's mansion.
"Mr. Kong Ming, what's the situation outside now?"
In a stone pavilion in the Minghou Mansion, Mu Jing sat down and asked Hu Zhao first.
"In Chengdu City, only Pang Xi and Gaoding's soldiers and horses remain, and the other soldiers and horses have all surrendered to our herding army, we control the east city, the south city, the north city, and the western suburbs We also stationed the main force of the wolf battalion!" Hu Zhao said confidently: "If there is a war, I am confident that I can break through Xicheng and defeat them within ten days!" ”
"No!"
Mu Jing shook his head.
"Why?" Hu Zhao was puzzled: "You have now solved the predicament, it is useless for him to stay, the first strike is strong, as long as we can defeat all his troops, we will completely sit in Chengdu, otherwise with his Liu Yan's prestige in Yizhou, gather troops, maybe we will not be able to suppress!" ”
After all, this is Yizhou, Liu Yan is Yizhou Mu, and he is the mountain tiger here.
"He, there are only three months left!"
Mu Jing said in a deep voice.
"Are you sure?" Hu Zhao's pupils moved slightly.
Liu Yan has an old disease, and he knows this.
But I didn't expect it to break out at this time.
It's really a god-aided shepherd.
"The news shouldn't be wrong, if he doesn't have no way out, how can he admit defeat!" Mu Jing said softly: "Even if he is besieged, even if he fails, but he always has troops in his hands, he naturally has the strength to fight, with his character, if it is not for the ups and downs, he will not suddenly admit defeat!" ”
"Life and death are unpredictable!"
Hu Zhao said with a sigh.
They have been planning for many years, but they don't know if God is playing with him or God is playing with him, but Liu Yan is defeated by birth, old age, sickness and death.
"We're going to move fast!"
Mu Jing stood up, patted the stone table, and said: "Liu Yan seems to admit defeat, but this person has always been scheming, what is hidden in his heart, it is difficult to touch, before this, I have to sit down on the matter,!" “
