Chapter 72: Dead and Alive, Second Watch

Zu Kuan felt that there was no tossing in vain for half a night tonight, and cleaned up Lin Yi and Zu Keyong, and the sullen breath in his chest finally came out, and when he and Li Mingfu took the guards to the camp gate, there was a scene of soldiers and armor outside.

"Why haven't we come out yet, Chief Soldier?"

"Are you trying to get some kind of conspiracy?" ……

Zhang Hua, Erhu, Gan Bao, and Jiang Xingyuan waved the weapons in their hands and shouted at the opposite side.

Xiao Ying squeezed to the front, looking for Lin Yi's shadow.

Now there are not only archers at the gate of Zu Kuan's camp, Zu Kuan's generals are gathering more and more, and one of the generals speaks: "I warn you, don't talk nonsense, we have already gone in to report, and there will be news soon."

Zhang Hua said: "We have been waiting for a long time, and there is no trace of our two adults, and your ancestor general soldier will not come out to speak, how long will we wait?"

"Yes, don't listen to him, the two adults were imprisoned by them, and they killed them and slaughtered these treacherous villains!"

Gan Bao waved the iron flat pole, Jiang Xingyuan held a big shovel, shouting, and many people responded.

"I think any of you dare?" The general on the opposite side glared, "The archers are ready for me, as long as they dare to take a step forward, they will release arrows for me!" ”

Wang Jian felt that his patience was almost at the bottom line.

At this time, someone shouted: "The chief soldier has arrived-"

Zu Kuan's men and horses flashed to the side, revealing Zu Kuan, Li Mingfu and others.

By the light of the torches, Zu Kuan could see very clearly.

The army on the opposite side was well-groomed, the armor was bright, the archers, the short swordsmen, the pikemen, the shield bearers, the horses, and the infantry were in good order, forming a battle formation, advancing and attacking, retreating and defending.

One by one, they glared angrily, fully armed, and they were all ready for battle, as if they were facing a great enemy.

The first few in the line were shouting and eager to try.

When Zu Kuan saw this, he secretly said in his heart: "It is said that King Lu Yan has a good way of governing the army, and it really deserves its reputation, this is the famous Tianxiong Army, and it seems that it is not inferior to our Ning Yuan Army at all." Lao Li is right, with this team in his hands, the strength is equivalent to doubling, it should be no problem to deal with the Tartars in a short time, and in the future, he will be able to use Lin Yi and Zu Keyong, two dead ghosts, to make meritorious contributions in front of the governor and the imperial court, it is really a double win! ”

Thinking of this, Zu Kuan looked charitable: "Brothers, a certain is Zu Kuan, and now he is the post of deputy commander-in-chief, I know that you are all here for the two commanders of Lin and Zu, at this time, it is really unexpected, unexpected......"

When Zu Kuan said this, his face suddenly became solemn, and his voice became very painful and trembling.

"Huh? …… What's wrong with Lord Lin? ”

At this moment, the hearts of Xiaoying, Wang Jian and others suddenly hung in their throats.

"Everyone, listen to Zu Mou slowly. The two commanders and everyone risked their lives to come to support, and Zu was grateful. In the evening, Zu had good intentions and wanted to have a good relationship with the two commanders, so he set up a sumptuous banquet and invited each other, and the two commanders went to the camp to attend the banquet, Zu and Yuan Zhi (Li Mingfu's words) accompanied, we talked very speculatively, drank a few more glasses, and saw that it was too late, so I left the tent of the two commanders for the night. How do you know that there was a sudden fire in the middle of the night, Zu Mou also woke up from his dream in a daze, and when Zu Mou arrived at the scene with someone, Yuan Zhi had already been there to direct the fire extinguishing, and after we put out all the fires, the two commanders had become two charred corpses......"

When Zu Kuan said this, he looked extremely sad.

"Huh? …… Lord Lin, they ......"

This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, and Wang Jian and the others were stupid like electric shocks.

The strongest reaction was of course Xiaoying, as if someone had drained her nerves, and then she fainted as soon as she rolled her eyes.

Fortunately, she was supported by Wang Jian, Zhang Hua and others, and she shouted for a long time before she opened her eyes again, Xiaoying cried loudly, like crazy, and beat her chest.

"Lord Lin won't die, unless someone poisons him!" Zhang Hua's words were amazing.

"Who are you that dare to speak gibberish?" As soon as Zu Kuan heard this, his heavy expression just now was swept away, and his two eyes stared at Zhang Hua like buns, eager to eat him alive.

Zhang Hua was not afraid at all, the water snake's waist was straight, and the narrow eyes on the knife face were also propped up, "In Zhang Hua, the personal soldier of Lord Xia Nailin, I didn't talk nonsense, the adult is full of martial arts, he can fight a hundred Kou alone, and he can retreat on foot among the thousands of troops and horses of the Tartars, how can a mere fire burn the adult?" It's clear that someone is getting in the way......"

"Zhang Hua is right, Lord Lin must have been framed!" Erhu, Gan Bao, and Jiang Xingyuan also shouted.

Zu Kuan's fierceness was revealed, and he wanted to use force to kill people as soon as he saw that he was going to be exposed. If Li Mingfu hadn't told him, Zu Kuan would have erupted a long time ago.

Li Mingfu hurriedly glanced at Zu Kuan, and took the words, "Everyone, be calm, don't hurt people, and speak with evidence, Lin Yi and Zu Keyong, the two guerrillas, both have the courage to be unstoppable, but they drink too much, they are delirious, and they can't walk the road. ”

"Besides, the chief soldier and the two guerrilla commanders have no grudges in the past, and there is no enmity in the near future, the Tartar soldiers are pressing, we are looking forward to reinforcements, we are hungry and thirsty, the nearby guards have long run away without a trace, only two guerrilla commanders, risking death to rescue, we are too late to be grateful, how can we do harm? Now that this is the case, don't be presumptuous. The two commanders suffered this misfortune, and everyone's feelings can be understood, and General Soldier Zu and I are also very sad. This matter is not over, we will definitely find out, last night in charge of serving the two commanders of the army has been controlled by us, we will give an account to everyone, the governor and the imperial court, the two guerrilla commanders are also the imperial court officials, I, Li Mingfu, as the general of the ancestral army, here with a personality guarantee, will not let the two guerrilla commanders suffer injustice, you can rest assured...... Now tens of thousands of Tartars are in front of us, and the war is about to break out, so we hurry back to our camps and hold our positions. ”

Li Mingfu is worthy of being Zu Kuan's think tank, he can really say it with a small mouth, he can turn straw into gold bars, and the dead can make him say that he is alive.

These words are high-sounding and reasonable, with both official authority and personal friendship, soft and hard, and impeccable.

Now everyone is speechless, Xiaoying's eyes are crying like peaches, her mood is completely confused, and the sky seems to be falling.

Zu Kuan was secretly happy in his heart, if it weren't for Li Mingfu, he wouldn't be able to do this kind of trickery, and the contradictions between the two sides would be stimulated, so he could only suppress it by force, and now he would not move a knife or a gun, and put this matter right, of course, it is a good thing.

Thinking of this, Zu Kuan suppressed the excitement and joy in his heart, and said to Wang Jian and the other 2,000 people: "From today on, Lin Yi and Zu Keyong, the two guerrilla commanders, will temporarily take charge of the affairs in the camp by Yuan Zhi, it is not early, everyone hurry back to the camp."

Zu Kuan said and looked at Li Mingfu with a smug look on his face and smiled, and he was ready to collect his troops and return to the camp to celebrate.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted twice.

"Lin Yi has commanded—"

"Commander Zu Keyong has—"

In the middle of the night, these two sounds were like two thunderbolts.

Especially since Zu Kuan and Li Mingfu had just announced in public that the two of them were scorched, how could Lin Yi and Zu Keyong still come? The thousands of soldiers and generals present, whether it was Zu Kuan's Ning Yuan Army or the Tianxiong Army brought by Wang Jian, there was a commotion.

Next, the Ning Yuanjun behind Zu Kuan was in a big chaos, and everyone flashed with an uproar, and they all flashed aside, and in Zhong's stunned gaze, two people were suddenly revealed.

Two people came one after the other, the one in front was free and slender, the jade tree was in the wind, and the one behind was tall and burly, mighty and extraordinary. But neither of them wore armor or swords, and both of them were dressed in soft coats, and they strode over.

It was Lin Yi who walked in front, and Zu Keyong followed closely behind Lin Yi.

The armor of the two men was all burned with the two charred corpses, and the two armor they had changed into for the dead ghosts, of course, they could not wear them on such occasions.

Before that, they took the opportunity to take off their clothes in a no-man's land, disposed of them, and then came to the scene, which was early rather than coincidental. It just so happened that Zu Kuan and Li Mingfu finished their performances and were about to end.

The appearance of these two people at this time is tantamount to snowfall in June......
