There were more than 3,000 people running out of the border city, including the old and the young, and women, of whom nearly 2,000 were young and strong men. （.）

It can be said that Xiao Chen's decision not only preserved the bloodline of the border city, but also retained a force to be reckoned with. However, the number of people who died in the city was much higher, estimated at more than four thousand.

Everyone stood five miles away from their homes, and many of them wanted to kill back and avenge their families and friends, they clenched their weapons and gritted their teeth, just waiting for Xiao Chen's order.

The little marquis didn't seem to be in a hurry to counterattack, but looked at the border city with burning eyes.

"Brother Chen, what should I do next?" Medina was also a little breathless, in her opinion, the border city has today's results, and it is inseparable from her.

Of course, everyone knows that even if she hadn't fled to her grandfather's house, Gu Lilen would have been eyeing the rich border city for a long time, and sooner or later she would bring troops to loot it, but she had to admit that it was Martina who gave Gu Lilen an excuse to ransack the border city.

Therefore, she couldn't wait to kill her uncle immediately and slash her uncle under the horse with her own hands.

"No hurry, wait. He said in a deep voice.

"Wait?" Martina didn't understand what he meant, because just a few minutes earlier, he had been agitating for everyone to take home again.

He explained: "Since it was your uncle who colluded with Gu Lilen, I was gambling on one thing. ”

"What's the matter?" the princess hurriedly asked.

"After Gu Lilen robs it, will he set fire to the border city? He lowered his voice and said, "I'm thinking, since your uncle is here, Gu Lilen is likely to sell him a face, just loot and leave." ”

Medina didn't understand what he meant: "But sooner or later we have to kill back, do you mean to wait for Gullen to leave with a swagger, and then take advantage of the emptiness of the city to go back? That would reduce some casualties, but who shall we seek revenge?"

The little marquis motioned her not to worry, and said: "We can avenge some people by killing them now, but it will also cause unnecessary casualties, of course this is not the point." The point is that if we go back now, Gullen and Crimea will definitely flee with their belongings and set fire to the border city before leaving, and by then all we will get is a ruin. ”

"What do you mean?" the princess had already understood the meaning of his words.

"That's right!" he said with a smile: "As long as the border city is still there, what we have taken back is our homeland, and as for the property that was robbed by Gu Lilen, we will take it back again." But once we show great combat effectiveness and cause him to set fire to the city, even if we take back what he stood, it will not be enough to build another border city in a short time, which is more important, do you understand?"

"Understood. The princess nodded, glanced at the people next to her, and said, "I will advise them not to act rashly, and besides, do you already have a plan to defeat Gu Lilen?" ”

Xiao Hou Ye stretched out his hand and scratched the bridge of her tall nose: "I really can't hide anything from you, you can tell everyone, I will definitely lead them to snatch back what belongs to them, and I can also avenge my relatives." ”

In the border city, after a massacre, Gu Lilen and his people grabbed countless gold and silver treasures, almost piled up in the courtyard of the lord's mansion, and everyone was excited, and they made a lot of money.

Kerim's face was not very good-looking, because many of these belongings had been moved out of his own house, and since he had moved out, I am afraid it would be difficult for Gullen to return them.

The only consolation is that the previous agreement promised by Gu Lilen is still valid, and five hundred war horses and ten thousand taels of gold can at least become the capital of his start.

"Hahaha, why is the young lord drooping a face. Gu Lilen walked over with a big laugh, stretched out his arm on his shoulder, and said, "In addition to the previous agreement, this king also plans to give you a big gift!"

Krimu's eyes lit up: "Yes, please make it clearer." ”

Gu Lilen looked around, and said with a proud face: "This king plans to give you the border city, and you will be the king here in the future." ”

"Send ...... Give it to me?" "I haven't been able to figure it out in time, this is Lao Tzu's territory, can you give it to me with your kindness?"

Thinking of this, he chuckled in his heart, you Gu Lilen won't be looking at the border city.

Gu Lilen continued: "Let me tell you the truth, after robbing the money, this king will burn down this place! ”

Krimu thought to himself that when this place was prosperous, he would give you another chance to grab it, right?

But he didn't show it on his face, but said very politely: "Thank you for the generosity of the King of Baishan, in the future, the border city will only look at your horse!"

"Hahaha, it's easy to say! Don't worry, this king will protect you, those who escape from the city are not a problem at all, this king will definitely lead an army to exterminate them one by one!"

Not long after, Gullen ordered to return, leaving Crimea with 500 horses and 10,000 taels of gold.

It wasn't until the people of Baishan walked away that the Crimean woke up suddenly, what do you mean by leaving me an empty city?

Although he contacted many of the old troops before, and these people also expressed their support for him, and now they are standing behind him and taking over the defense of this place, but these people are only five or six hundred when they are full, and it is a fool's dream to rely on such a small number of troops to defend the border city.

There are no less than 2,000 soldiers who escaped from the border city just now, Gu Lilen, you sister's yin!

Beside Gu Lilen, the staff gave a thumbs up: "The king, you are so smart, leave the border city and Kerim, let him and Daddy Su Kemu eat the dog, let's stand aside and watch the play." ”

Gu Lilen laughed: "That's right, the original father and son have become enemies who don't share the sky, and when they are almost done, this king is leading the army to pick up the cheap, and the border city will be mine sooner or later, hahaha!"

"Wise King, this time I want to see what those who oppose you can say! I suggest that you do not give them any money, for they will not send troops, and on what basis they will be rewarded. ”

"I can't say that, although they didn't support me, they didn't openly rebel, at least they helped the king keep his nest, which is also a credit. Of course, the rewards given to them are symbolic, and we can't even eat meat without giving them a bone!"

"Yes, yes, yes, there is meat to eat with the king, and they are only worthy of gnawing bones without meat. ”

At the west gate of the border city, Su Kemu finally woke up, and Xiao Chen gathered him and the two lords for a meeting.

The torch illuminated the ground, and the little marquis drew a simple map on the ground, picked up a stone and put it in the middle, and said: "This is a border city, let's leave him alone for now, there is Kerim as the temporary trustee, everyone can be completely assured." Great Lord Sukemu, please send five hundred elite soldiers to listen to my orders, and I will take them to set up an ambush on the path that the people of Baishan must pass, kill them by surprise, and take back our belongings. ”

"How can five hundred people do it, they have more than two thousand!" Su Kemu interrupted him.

"Yes, five hundred is too little, so it's better for everyone to go together. Martina suggested.

Xiao Hou Ye smiled: "Actually, my main task is to delay their actions, as for how many things can be recovered, it depends on the will of God." And you, there is a more important task than me, the old lord is really embarrassed, and you have to personally lead the team to the battlefield, can you?"

"Of course, I'm not old enough to be bullied!" Su Kemu pulled out the scimitar directly.
