"This person is in the world, if you want to live freely, you rely on human affection and relationships......"

In the cave wall of the northern city of Chuxian County, which is in the west of Hanzhong Fucheng, there is no discomfort caused by the storm at all, and in a cave wall, several soldiers of Chuxian County are drinking and chatting with the sky, and the ravages of the wind and snow outside the tent do not matter to them at all, one of the county soldiers with older qualifications is holding a bowl of turbid wine, and is drunkenly preaching to several "juniors".

"What does the second uncle mean?" A young county soldier saw that there was not much wine left in the veteran's bowl, so he obediently carried the wine jug that was burning on the fire next to him and poured it for him.

The veteran glanced approvingly at the young county soldier, looked up and said proudly, "Don't you see how much snow is falling outside?" Let me tell you, if Lao Tzu hadn't had a friendship with Lord Ru's housekeeper, and now he was sent to patrol and stand guard outside, we would be the ones who suffered and suffered! How can there be such a leisurely and comfortable care for the caves of the city gate? ”

"What the second uncle said is that it is our blessing to follow the second uncle!" When a group of young county soldiers saw the situation, they all deliberately greeted and praised each other, and every word of flattery was like the best appetizer, making the veterans happy and fluttering. is also a loss to be in the same country as one of Ru Jinsheng's domestic servants, he can still be a small leader when he is old, and now he can still get this idle errand, roasting the stove, drinking wine, and listening to the praise of the younger generations.

The wind and snow are so big, the forward of the Zhao thief has been scared by the county soldiers, and Sun Xianzu's soldiers and horses are stationed outside the city, how can he be the messenger of this gate warning and make any mistakes? Hehe, according to the current situation, the officers and soldiers have already controlled the situation in the county, maybe according to the development of this good situation, he can still get a "one-and-a-half official position", maybe he will marry a young lady at an old age.

"Ahaha......" The veteran squinted his eyes and drank, thinking of the happy place, he couldn't help laughing, causing the juniors around him to look at each other.

"Bloating, it's convenient for me to go." A young county soldier was in a hurry to urinate and stood up.

"The snow is so heavy, don't be frozen."

"Haha."

Amid the laughter of everyone in the tent, the young county soldier hurriedly found a secluded place to relieve himself. It was too cold outside, and he didn't want to stay long.

Just when he was pouring thousands of miles, he suddenly felt a chill in his back, and before he could speak, he fell to the ground and died.

The county soldiers in the tent chatted for a while, and gradually felt that something was wrong, and one said: "Strange, why hasn't he come back yet?" It's going to be okay for a while. ”

Another person said, "Maybe it's Da Gong." ”

Someone else laughed and said, "Bao Buqi's words are really frozen." ”

Concerned asked the old soldier, "Second uncle, why don't we go out and have a look?" ”

The old soldier was lying there, and said impatiently: "The little cub is just impatient, and everyone else has to look around when they pee." What else could happen on this snowy day? If it's true that he didn't walk long and fell into the pit, it's no wonder that we are. If you are not afraid of freezing, you go, Lao Tzu will not go. ”

Before he could finish speaking, a throwing axe broke through the door and slashed straight in front of the old soldier. The veteran was stunned, and then, a county soldier looked terrified, and pointed behind the veteran in a trembling voice: "Second and second uncles, the street is on fire!" ”

"What!" The veteran was so shocked that he jumped up, and when he looked around, he could still see a red light rising from the streets of the county through the cracked wooden door.

The veteran was already half frightened awake from his drunkenness, and before he had time to think about who was attacking, two or three black shadows flashed into the cave wall, and shouted: "Zhao Yinghaojie is here, pigs and dogs get out!" ”

Almost subconsciously, almost all the county soldiers in the tent wanted to seize the door and escape, but those Zhao Yingbing soldiers sneered a few times, pulled out their waist knives, and slashed left and right, which instantly killed them. The veteran was stabbed in the body, bleeding profusely but not dead. A Zhao battalion soldier pulled him and threatened: "Old dog, take us to Ru Jinsheng, otherwise you will be killed." ”

"A good man, a good man spares his life!" The veteran said weakly, convulsed, staggered to his feet, and was escorted by the town soldiers to staggered out of the cave wall.

When he arrived outside the cave, he saw clearly that the streets in the city of Chuxian were now burned to pieces, and the fire followed the wind and snow, dyeing the sky red, and he was as frightened as hell. At the moment when everyone in the city focused on the fire, the northeast gate of the county town had already fallen into the hands of Zhao Ying. There were constantly soldiers of the Zhao battalion pouring in from outside the city, one after another, countless.

"It's over......" Thinking that his mission had been shattered, the veteran's heels immediately weakened, and his body collapsed.

On the other side, Li Yanyi, who was still asleep, was shocked into a cold sweat when he heard the news, the snow was flying, and there were Sun Xianzu's people staring at him outside the northeast city, he really couldn't think of where this Zhao battalion soldier came from, could it be that the soldiers of the Zhao battalion were really flying heavenly soldiers and generals?

Since Sun Xianzu came, Li Yanyi's heart was a little settled, and he finally fell asleep tonight, when he was suddenly awakened and his spirits were lifted. At this moment, the door of the house opened, and a biting cold wind with snow fell on his face, causing him to shiver. A county soldier came in crying and said, "The northeast gate has been lost, and the thieves have entered the city!" ”

Li Yanyi's heart was shocked, and he didn't have time to ask about the situation in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the first thing he thought of was Ru Pingyang's safety: "How many brothers are there outside?" ”

The soldier's face was dirty and wet, and he replied in a hoarse voice, "Most of them are scattered, and there are a hundred or so people, all outside." ”

Li Yanyi jumped up, he was already sleeping with Jia, at this time, he walked straight out of the knife, and said resolutely: "Call the brothers, come with me!" ”

The first to rush into the city was Xue Feixian.

Xue Feixian took the lead, and the red horse he sat on was extremely strong, and everywhere he passed, everyone bounced to both sides. He burned and killed on the road, caught a few soldiers halfway, asked where Ru Jinsheng's mansion was, and drove straight with his men and horses.

Ru Jinsheng was honest and simple, and there were not many families in his family, only some defected to his township party from his hometown Lu. Most of these people are local lazy and lazy people, and they were introduced to Rufu through various channels. And Ru Jinsheng has a gentle personality and treats people friendly, so he basically does not refuse to come. At this time, there were about 20 people, but at this time there were more than 20 people, but at this time of survival, most of these people should flee first, only five or six remained, under the leadership of the butler of Rufu, they held the gate of the mansion.

The disparity between the crowd was huge, Xue Feixian urged his troops to storm the gate, no matter how brave the few families inside were, they couldn't resist it after all. Seeing that the door was sinking, an army suddenly flew out from the diagonal and cut Xue Feixian's department into two sections. Xue Feixian's position was in the front, and he was also affected, this uninvited army was fierce, shooting random arrows while running, he was not prepared, he could only lead the horse to retreat, and together with his men, the offensive was temporarily slowed down.

When he forced the army forward again, he saw that the army had all taken the opportunity to hide in the Ru Mansion, and in the depths of the Ru Mansion, the flames suddenly burst into the sky.

Li Yanyi was covered in sweat and rushed into the Ru Mansion with hundreds of henchmen. As soon as he entered the mansion, he looked up and saw the raging fire in the mansion, and he was immediately anxious. After leaving most of the people to guard the gate of the palace, he flew to the place where the fire started with seven or eight companions.

It was Ru Jinsheng's study that caught fire. Ru Jin loves to read, so even though the living room is quite shabby, he still vacated the largest room as a study. Right now, the largest building in Ru Mansion is surrounded by tongues of fire. The white snow, which was reflected in the light of the fire, fell on the flames, and the snow and fire were mixed with each other, and there was a constant "crackling" sound.

Li Yanyi caught a glimpse of a family member at the foot of the house who was lost and depressed, squatting there with his head shaking with his head, so he pulled it over and asked sharply: "Where is the master and the young lady?" ”

The family blinked his eyes in horror, turned his eyes and saw the swaying waist knife in the hands of Li Yanyi and the others, and said in a sharp voice: "Master, Xiao, Miss, are all in the house......"

Before he could finish speaking, Li Yanyi kicked him away, then screamed and rushed into the sea of fire without hesitation. This time it came down too quickly, and before those companions came back to their senses, Li Yanyi's figure was gone. I can only stay anxious outside.

Xue Feixian's attack was frustrated, he was quite angry, and tried his best to urge his subordinates to storm the palace gate, but unexpectedly, the nearly 100 county soldiers who were left by Li Yanyi to guard the gate were desperate and tried their best to resist, and the Zhao battalion soldiers attacked three times in a row, but there was no progress, but a lot of losses.

"These thieves have some means." Xue Feixian pondered. Although his cavalry was brave and good at fighting, they rarely attacked fortifications. Under the law, it is indeed difficult to break through the flesh and blood defense line of Li Yanyi's subordinates who have the heart of death.

The two were in a stalemate, and Xu Hui, who had already controlled the situation of the whole city, also led his troops here. Xue Feixian stepped over his horse, raised his whip and said, "The officers and soldiers in the palace are stubbornly resisting, and it is difficult to attack. ”

Xu Hui didn't like him, and he didn't say much to him, only said: "Please Xue take someone to retire temporarily, and I will break the wall." ”

Xue Feixian listened to his cold tone, a little unhappy, and was about to say sarcastic, but suddenly thought of something, swallowed the words on his lips, and swallowed his anger: "Then my generation will take a good look at Xu Qianzong's power." After speaking, with a gloomy face, he gathered his men and retreated to the entrance of the alley.

The pressure of the county soldiers who were resisting with all their might in the mansion dropped suddenly, and they were all suspicious, they looked out through the dilapidated mansion gate, only to see Xue Feixian and the others looking over from a distance. However, they heard the sound of "Ding Ding Da Da" from several wall roots in the distance.

"The thieves want to dig up the wall?" The county soldiers looked at each other. Although this Ru Mansion is not big, the courtyard wall is strong and abnormal, all of which are covered with two or three layers of blue bricks. Compared with this inefficient and rudimentary method, attacking the door or circumventing the wall is undoubtedly much more effective.

After a while, the sound of chiseling was endless, these county soldiers had no opponents, and they did not dare to jump out of the mansion, and they were not willing to sit in the mansion and do nothing, thinking about it, they still decided to send some people to stop the "stupid behavior" of the Zhao battalion soldiers.

The first batch of more than ten people arrived there, and there were Zhao Yingbing outside the courtyard shouting: "Avoid fire, avoid fire!" ”

They were still wondering, there was a loud noise in their ears, their ears were ringing, and there was already a landslide in front of them, and the earth shook the sky. Three or four flying dust suddenly rose with a roar, and a twenty-meter-long stone wall of Ru Mansion was blown to pieces in an instant, and the more than ten county soldiers were almost in an instant Blood Droplets Flying.

Xue Feixian was dumbfounded and watched as Xu Hui calmly blew down the wall of the mansion with explosives. He and his hundreds of men were no less shocked than the county soldiers in the province at the moment of the explosion. It's not that they haven't seen the power of gunpowder, but that he knows how powerful it is. And Xu Hui, who can master and use gunpowder so skillfully and put it into the battlefield, can certainly give people enough spiritual shock.

After the courtyard wall collapsed, Xu Hui did not immediately wave his army forward, but gathered his hands and put two rows of guns into the smoke and dust that had not dispersed. With the sound of the gun, the miserable screams in the smoke and dust were loud, the cold wind blew through two bursts with the snow, and when the flying dust dissipated, dozens of county soldiers inside and outside the broken wall ambushed the corpses, and the remaining battle spirit had collapsed, and they ran to the depths of the house with a wail.

Only then did Xu Hui order the soldiers to break into Rufu. Xue Feixian, who was in the distance, watched this scene in surprise, and only reminded him left and right that he came back to his senses and urgently ordered his subordinates to follow up.

Having lost the barrier of the palace wall, the last psychological defense line of the county soldiers has collapsed, and the Zhao battalion soldiers have not encountered any resistance after entering the Ru Mansion. Capture the thief and capture the king first, Xu Hui came to Ru Mansion to arrest the county commander Ru Jinsheng, so he didn't stay much all the way, and soon arrived in front of the burning study.

There are still several brothers in life and death who are guarding Li Yanyi, and they all have sad looks on their faces, but they don't seem to intend to be arrested. Xu Hui called seven or eight fully loaded gunners and aimed at these county soldiers—at such a short distance, there was no reason for the bird guns to miss.

Just as Xu Hui was about to give the order to shoot, a black shadow came out of the raging fire house. His whole body was blackened by the flames, and there were even sparks left on his scattered bun. Xu Hui and the others couldn't see his face clearly, but they were shocked to see that he was holding another person in his hand. The same sea of fire came out, but the man in his arms had his eyes closed, his face was peaceful, and he rarely saw burning up and down.

"Wow!" The seven or eight county soldiers guarding outside knelt on the ground together, tears raining down.

The charred man looked at the myriad faces around him in confusion, then let out a long exhale, and then collapsed to the ground with the woman in his arms.

Several gunners were about to ignite when they saw the situation, but Xu Hui in front of him waved his hand slightly.
