Chapter 319: The Battle of Xiangcheng

Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

Miss He looked at Liu Xiu's shoulder and whispered, "You...... You're hurt! ”

Liu Xiu didn't look at the wound on his shoulder, stared at the beautiful-looking girl in front of him, and asked, "You're not afraid of me?" ”

Miss Ho said, "You're not a bad person. ”

Liu Xiu almost couldn't hold back her laughter, deliberately gloomy face, and asked, "How do you know that I'm not a bad person?" ”

"In the garden of the Li Mansion just now, you helped me out of the siege. And...... And I heard that the assassins were Li County Ling and Jia County Lieutenant! ”

Speaking of this, Miss He looked at Liu Xiu cautiously again, and said in a low voice: "I know that Li County Ling and Jia County Lieutenant are not good people. ”

Liu Xiu looked at Miss He, and after a while, he shook his arm, withdrew his sword, and said, "After crossing the street in front, I saw a small alley with no people, put me down." ”

He didn't say this to Miss He, but to the middle-aged coachman who was driving the car.

"But your ...... hurt"

"I'll handle it myself." At present, in the hands of the county soldiers who are still under the control of Xiangcheng, at this time, whoever sticks to himself is unlucky. Liu Xiu and this Miss He have never known each other in their lives, but they don't want to affect her.

"I ...... I can help you bandage your wounds. Miss He said with an anxious expression, and at the same time, she stretched out her hand to check the injury on Liu Xiu's shoulder.

Liu Xiuyi clasped her wrist and said in a deep voice: "I said it, I will handle it myself." ”

Although the driver who drove the car did not sit in the carriage, he could hear the conversation between Liu Xiu and Miss He clearly.

Obviously, the person who suddenly jumped into the carriage was the assassin who assassinated Li Wen and Jia Xuan. For this kind of person, it is impossible to hide, Miss is good, and she has to bandage the assassin's wounds, this has to be known, and the entire He family will suffer.

The middle-aged coachman was just a subordinate, and he didn't dare and couldn't reprimand his own young lady, so he could only let the carriage run as fast as possible, so as to find a place where no one was, and quickly send this 'plague god' away.

Miss He subconsciously rubbed her wrist that was hurt by Liu Xiu, her eyes were wet and red, and asked, "Do you also look down on me from a family in the market?" ”

What a place to be! Liu Xiu rubbed his forehead, and at this moment, the coachman's trembling voice came from outside the carriage: "This ...... This gentleman, there is no one in this little alley! ”

Liu Xiu raised the curtain of the carriage with the sword in his hand and looked out, and sure enough, the carriage stopped at the mouth of an empty alley. Without saying a word, he bent his waist, jumped out of the carriage, said thank you, turned around and left.

Miss He poked her head out of the carriage and asked, "Are you...... Can I know your name? ”

"Kill Li Wen, Liu Xiu!" Liu Xiutou didn't return to throw down this sentence, and ran towards the depths of the alley with a brisk walk.

Liu Xiu? Liu Xiu of the Nanyang Han Army? Miss He was stunned for a moment before she reacted, but unfortunately she wanted to find Liu Xiu to confirm again, but she couldn't see him anymore.

In the alley, Liu Xiu jumped into the courtyard of a house, stole a robe that was cool in the yard, put it on his body, and then left the alley, identified the direction, and hurried to Wang Xing's house.

didn't dare to go through the front door, he entered Wang Xing's mansion through the back door.

The person who opened the door for him was none other than Wang Ba. Liu Xiu raised his eyes and took a look, and his heart suddenly relaxed, not only Long Yuan, Long Zhun, Long Xiao, Xu Ying, Xu Fei, and Xu Ting were all there, but even Wang Xing ran back at some point. "Lord, are you alright?" Seeing that it was Liu Xiu coming back, everyone gathered around and stepped forward. Liu Xiu glanced around at everyone, except for Wang Xing, who had no blood stains on his body, Long Yuan and the others were all bloodstained on their bodies, and there were many large and small clothes on them

of the mouth.

"I'm fine! How did you get back? Liu Xiu asked.

Long Yuan said: "I waited for the county soldiers to fight a bloody way and rushed out!" ”

Wang Xing said: "I took advantage of the chaos to run back!" ”

Liu Xiu nodded, frowned and said, "The county soldiers should be looking for the door soon, if we can't hide here, we have to move quickly!" ”

Wang Xingzheng said: "General Liu, everyone, please come with the old man!" Wang Xing led Liu Xiu and his party to the back garden, and when he walked to a rockery in the back garden, he stopped.

There is a very narrow cave in the rockery, which can only accommodate one person, and the cave is open, standing on this side of the rockery, you can see the other side of the rockery through the cave.

After everyone saw it, they secretly muttered in their hearts, the secret room of the Wang family's mansion can't be this small cave, right? Can this hide people?

Wang Xing and Wang Ba walked into the cave and moved the stones on the ground one by one, and it was only then that Liu Xiu and others discovered that there was a movable stone slab hidden on the ground of the cave.

Wang Ba lifted the stone slab, and there was a black hole underneath, he took out the fire fold, handed it to Liu Xiu, and said, "Lord, this secret room is very hidden, and it is safe to hide in it!" ”

Liu Xiu took the fire fold, didn't say a word, and jumped in directly.

The secret room is about two meters deep, and the space inside is not small. Wang Ba, Long Yuan and the others also jumped in one after another.

Wang Xing did not enter the secret room immediately, but first found all the family members in the mansion and took them into the secret room together.

In the end, only one of the henchmen was left to close the stone slabs on the chamber and put the stones back in their place.

If you don't know the inside story, no matter who you let you see, this is an ordinary, small rockery used to decorate the garden, and you can't imagine that there is a secret room hidden under the rockery.

Liu Xiu overestimated the ability of the county soldiers, and it was not until the evening that the county soldiers found Wang Xing's mansion.

When Wang Xing took Liu Xiu and the others to the Li Mansion, their identities were all domestic slaves, and no one paid attention to them at all. They unexpectedly assassinated Li Wen and Jia Xuan, and the county soldiers searched all over the city, but no one associated them with Wang Xing.

It wasn't until a servant of the Li Mansion said that the assassin seemed to be a slave brought by Wang Xing, that the county soldiers came to the door.

As a result, when they arrived at the Wang family's mansion, there were only some domestic servants and domestic slaves left in the mansion, and as for Wang Xing and his family, they all disappeared.

The county soldiers asked the domestic servants, domestic slaves, where Wang Xing and the others had gone, and these subordinates were also at a loss, and they couldn't tell the whereabouts of Wang Xing and the others at all.

After a long round of inquiry, they didn't find out why, and finally the county soldiers arrested all the people in the Wang family's mansion and returned to the county government.

It's just that before the county soldiers tortured the servants of the Wang family to extract confessions, the next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Jia Fu, Ma Wu, Choshi and others led 3,000 Han troops to arrive outside Xiangcheng. The strength of the Xiangcheng County soldiers is quite a lot, there are more than 2,000 people, but the county commander Li Wen and the county lieutenant Jia Xuan have both been assassinated, the dragons are leaderless, the morale is low, and the army is disheartened

, people have no intention of fighting, and the county soldiers defending the city fled into the city in groups.

Jia Fu, Ma Wu, Cho Qi, Feng Yi and others used the cavalry as infantry, set up cloud ladders, and launched a fierce attack on Xiangcheng.

The few defenders of Xiangcheng who remained at the head of the city barely put up a decent resistance before being routed by the attacking Han army.

When the Han army entered the city, the city gate was opened as soon as possible, and the cavalry outside swarmed in and entered the city.

As the cavalry entered the city, the county soldiers had no power to resist, except for a small number of county soldiers who fled, the remaining county soldiers all surrendered to the Han army.

The battle of Xiangcheng started quickly and ended faster, and the time before and after was added together, and it didn't take an hour.

It was not until the Han army successfully captured Xiangcheng that the servant who had been hiding for a long time returned to the Wang family's mansion, opened the door of the secret room, and pulled Liu Xiu and others out of the secret room.

In the secret room, Liu Xiu, Long Yuan and others had already bandaged their wounds.

Their injuries are not serious, most of them are skin injuries, and only Liu Xiu's injuries are penetrating injuries, but his physique is different from ordinary people, and the recovery speed of his injuries is much faster than others.

After Liu Xiu, Jia Fu, Ma Wu and others converged, the first thing they did was to seal the two Li Mansions.

The first Li Mansion is Li Wen's mansion, and the second Li Mansion is Li Hun's mansion. Li Hun, who was hiding at home, was finally arrested, and was soon beheaded by the Han army in public, and asked him to accompany his father Li Wen as a companion.

Speaking of which, Li Wen and Jia Xuan have been operating in Xiangcheng for so many years, and there are naturally many members of the same party, and the Xiangcheng scholars are more or less related to Li Wen and Jia Xuan.

If it is really necessary to strictly investigate the two of them in the same party, it is estimated that none of the Xiangcheng scholars will be able to escape, and they will all be implicated.

However, Liu Xiu didn't dare to do this, and he couldn't do this, and he investigated and dealt with the Xiangcheng Shi clan, which was tantamount to offending the entire Yingchuan Shi class, without the support of the Shi class, how could the Han army gain a foothold in Yingchuan?

Liu Xiu himself may not like the scholar class, but he is not a brainless person who does not know how to be flexible, he knows very well in his heart how much help he can bring to his side with the support of the scholar class.

Like tracking down the same party, implicating a large number of people, and then disposing of them all, Liu Xiu can't do this kind of thing, he has never been a brutal and murderous person, and his philosophy of governance has always been soft.

After all, Liu Xiu is too a student, no matter how good or bad he studied back then, his academic qualifications are there, and his knowledge and cultivation are far from being comparable to Liu Xuan, Wang Kuang, Chen Mu and others.

After the Han army captured Xiangcheng, the scholars of Xiangcheng came to the county government for the first time to meet Liu Xiu. Although Liu Xiu was injured, he still met with the scholars who came.

There are not many scholars who come to see Liu Xiu, but they are all very important, and they are all respected representatives of the Xiangcheng scholars.

The main purpose of their coming over this time was to probe Liu Xiu's tone and see what Liu Xiu's attitude was towards him.

Seeing that Liu Xiu treated his people politely, and even personally greeted the county government, the representatives of the scholar clan were all secretly relieved, and the atmosphere at the scene became much more relaxed. An elderly man said: "General Liu, Li Wen and Jia Xuan bullied men and women in Xiangcheng, and did all kinds of evil, which has already caused a lot of complaints

O human heart! If General Liu needs it, even though he has been instructed, as long as it is within our ability, we will definitely help! ”

"Yes, General Liu, what does the Han army need, just tell me to wait!"

"Speaking of which, Xiu really has a thing, please ask for help." Liu Xiule said hehehe: "Our army advanced to Yingchuan, there is a shortage of grain and grass, if you gentlemen can donate some food, our soldiers will be grateful!" ”

The Xiangyang County Government did not have much grain, and the county treasury did not have much money saved, but the Han army seized a huge amount of money in the Li Mansion and the Jia Mansion, but the grain was not seized much. 3,000 soldiers have to eat and drink every day, and it is not enough to have money and no food, and the most difficult problem facing Liu Xiu at present is to solve the supply of grain and grass for the whole army.
