The third watch day had just passed, and Jiang Song, who was dressed in black, really returned as promised. Chu Liangsheng was still waiting for the candle and didn't ask where he went.

"There is martial law inside and outside Dragon City. The Dragoons are patrolling day and night, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, Childe, let's go out of Dragon City tonight! ”

"Good! Leave everything to the master. ”

Liang Sheng stood up, took off the sword on the pillar, and followed Jiang Song out of hiding, and before leaving, he glanced back at the mansion one last time. Perhaps, there was a pair of gentle eyes of a woman looking at him with concern in the dark. Full of soft intestines, cut off! He waved his hand slightly, and the two figures disappeared into the darkness.

The night of Dragon City is as dark as ink. This world-famous royal city fell silent in sorrow. In the second half of the night, the continuous drizzle finally stopped. Most people fall asleep from fatigue. Perhaps the only thing that sleeps at night is those endless ambitions, or great ambitions!

Jinxiang Palace Fushou Palace, the ever-bright light is not extinguished all night. Chu Jiangmian, who was here to guard the spirit of King Zhao, sat and talked with others for a long time, from the evening until now. He had already wanted to let the two of them rest several times, but they insisted on guarding the king's spiritual throne here until dawn.

These two people who came at night would be surprised if they were seen by someone outside. Because they are none other than the two most famous generals of Zhao State, Zheng Liancheng and Gou Wuxian!

In the past few years, everyone in the world knows that Zhao ** has produced many famous generals, and he is very powerful. And if we talk about the last few decades, whether it is merit or fame, under the command of King Chulie of Zhao, the most famous are four people. That is Yuan Rong, Fei Yi, Zheng Liancheng, and Gou Wuxian. One of these four people can be selected at random, and they are all well-deserved famous generals in the world. Although they are all old and decrepit by now, they are no longer as heroic as they used to be, but when it comes to their heroic deeds, the people of Zhao are like a few treasures and are proud of them.

Zheng Liancheng and Gou Wuxian have been unarmed and returned to the field for several years. King Chulie of Zhao specially built a mansion in the city for them to support their old age. Originally, they thought that they would never have to work to go out of the mountain again, but when the news of King Zhao's death reached their ears, the two of them didn't say anything, and they found the dusty armor, polished the rusty sword, walked out of the mansion, and walked into the wind and rain on the streets of Longcheng without hesitation.

Their purpose for entering Jinxiang Palace was very clear, in addition to grieving the death of King Zhao, they came to Xingshi to ask for guilt. I heard that King Zhao wanted to pick a son at this critical juncture? When the two veterans fought their swords and went straight into the Fushou Palace, they were almost angry. Their first thought was to find Chu Jiangmian and teach him a hard lesson first.

It's just that what I saw in front of me was a little unexpected. In the solemn palace full of black and white colors, Chu Jiangmian was dressed in white and was sitting calmly in front of the coffin, as if he had been waiting for them for a long time.

When the two veterans saw the spirit of the king, they couldn't help but burst into tears, and their hearts ached like knives. They didn't bother to reprimand Chu Jiangmian first, and they had already cried to the ground, crying silently.

Regardless of the righteousness of the monarch and the minister, just say that in the past, they fought side by side and bloodstained the battlefield for decades of life and death, but now they are separated by yin and yang, and life and death are strange, how can it not make people feel heartache and tears

Cross currents!

"The deceased is gone, two uncles, please mourn! Before my father's death, he told me many times that several old generals were important treasures of the country, and told me to be kind! If you are so sad that you damage your body, where will you leave your little nephew? ”

Chu Jiang stood up and stepped forward, wanting to help them up from the ground. His mind, which had just calmed down, couldn't help but feel a little confused when he saw them so sad.

Unexpectedly, the two not only did not appreciate it, but shook off his arm and glared angrily. And the short-tempered Gou Wuxian sprayed directly on his face with a mouthful of saliva, pointing at his nose and scolding.

"You hard-to-do wretch! The king has gone through countless hardships to lead the soldiers to open up this piece of society and mountains, can you just watch it corrupt in your hands? On weekdays, when the king and our old brothers talk about you, they are secretly complimenting and praising you. But I didn't expect that before his bones were cold, you would hide here as a shrunken turtle. You, you, how can you be worthy of his hard work, and how can you live up to the expectations of countless people! ”

When this old man was young, no one dared to stop him from charging in the killing field, that was the master who killed people when he raised his sword and fell! Although he is old now, his temper is old and spicy, and he has no mercy after scolding this time. Speaking of later, when I think of those hard years, I am even more in tears, and I can't stop it.

And although Zheng Liancheng has a slightly better temper, he will not be so impulsive. But at this moment, he was also looking at Chu Jiangmian with an unkind face, and no one dared to guarantee that when he was angry later, he would not directly beat this prince with his old fist!

Bai Ye and Murong Licheng, who were guarding the door, suddenly saw that these two old guys wanted to be unfavorable to His Royal Highness the Prince, and they were furious in their hearts, and they were about to rush over. However, Chu Jiangmian waved his hand at them, signaling to leave them alone. He wiped the saliva from his face with a calm expression, and said calmly to the two veterans.

"Two uncles, don't be impatient, can you give me a quarter of an hour, and after I finish a few words, I will beat or scold again, and listen to it."

"What else do you have to say? Let's make it clear in front of both of us now...... Hum! I want to use clever words to get by, but I don't even have a door! ”

Zheng Liancheng pulled Gou Wuxian to sit down, and the two of them stared at Chu Jiangmian here, seeing how he could quibble.

Chu Jiangmian sat opposite the two of them with a wry smile and pushed over the tea he had personally prepared for them. Before that, he wasn't sure if the two veterans who had already been unarmoured would come. But half an hour ago, when he received the news from the spy of the Thousand Machine Pavilion, he had everything ready and waited here.

"The two uncles may have heard about it, right? General Yuan Rong was unfortunately killed, the Zhao army was defeated, and the army besieging Zhao from five directions was coming from four directions. And the new funeral of his father, the people of Longcheng are flustered, this situation of internal and external coercion is probably the most dangerous moment in the history of Zhao Guo in a hundred years! ”

Zheng Liancheng and Gou Wuxian glanced at each other, although they no longer asked about military and political affairs, but the situation in Zhao State was so critical, how could they not know? And the reason why they entered the palace overnight was that in addition to Xingshi asking for crimes, how to find a way to solve the danger faced by Zhao Guo was the most serious

The top priority.

"The situation is critical, needless to say, we all know it very well. Your Highness, don't worry too much, as long as you can stand up and take over the burden left by the king without fear of hardship, although we are old, we can also use this last breath to help you! Thinking of me, Zhao Guonan, he has always been generous and heroic, only to die standing and never to kneel! ”

Zheng Liancheng stroked a few cases with his hands, staring at Chu Jiangmian's face with blazing eyes, this was by no means his deliberate high posture. From the moment he put on his armor and walked out of the house, he had already made up his mind. This old bone, if it really wants to fall, will also fall in the fierce battlefield battle, the beacon fire! Of course, Gou Wuxian will not lag behind, he patted his chest, drew his knife and stuck it on the ground, and made a solemn oath to fight for the country and put on his robe again on the battlefield!

"Two uncles, don't worry! I, Chu Jiangmian, can swear in front of my father's coffin tonight that I will never back down in this battle! I will use the bow and sword he left me to kill all the invaders who enter the territory of Zhao Kingdom! If his words are not right, and he violates this oath, he will be like this arrow, and his body will be in a different place, and he will not be completely corpsed! ”

Chu Jiangmian stood up, stretched out his hand and took out a feather arrow from the quiver on the side of the case, and broke it into two pieces with a "click"! Swearing to death on the spot is already an extremely serious oath.

The two veteran generals were solemnly moved. Zheng Liancheng grabbed his arm, and an excited look appeared on his face.

"When you say that, we're relieved! As long as you have such determination and attitude, no matter how bad the situation is, we will resolutely support you to the end! ”

"Your Highness, rest assured! Don't look at the strength of the enemy, once the soldiers of our Zhao State are inspired to fight, even if they face the most powerful enemy, they will definitely not give in. Although the veteran is old, he can still eat ten catties of meat, pick up a knife and get on the horse, and charge to kill the enemy without falling behind! ”

Gou Wuxian was impatient, and he was about to get up and leave the palace and go home to prepare. But he was dragged by Chu Jiangmian and sat him on the side of several cases again. He straightened out his mind a little, looking at the burning light of the ever-bright lamp, his eyes were full of inexplicable confidence.

"The two uncles are the heart of the country and the people, and the sun and the moon can be seen! Jiang Mian represents the people of Zhao State, and he is endlessly grateful! However, where can you use it to fight again? If you are willing to stay here, then watch carefully, within ten days, the little nephew will let the invading enemy be wiped out and the armor will not be returned! ”

Zheng Liancheng and Gou Wuxian's eyes widened at the same time, they looked at Chu Jiangmian in surprise, no matter what, they couldn't believe what he just said. On the way here, they had a general understanding of the situation of the enemy's invasion. The five countries attacked Zhao, and the four sides attacked. Among them, there are 130,000 Qin and Wei troops, more than 60,000 Yan ** troops, more than 30,000 Qi countries, and more than 20,000 naval warships of the Southern Han Dynasty, adding up to 250,000 in total! And the entire army of Zhao State now is less than 200,000. After the defeat on the Western Front, it will be difficult to hold these four defensive lines, let alone achieve victory in a short period of time.

"Your Highness, military affairs are not child's play, don't talk about it!"

Zheng Liancheng frowned, as an experienced generation of famous players, he asked himself that it was difficult to support the current overall situation. As for breaking the enemy and winning within ten days, unless it is the rebirth of the god of war, the heavens will descend to earth!
