In the mansion, Duan Lang was still one step away from Zhang Ruming, and he stopped abruptly. Li Jianshan was also shocked to look at this sudden scene, and quickly pulled out the special bow and crossbow made by the Investigation and Defense Division from his waist.

Originally, Li Jianshan had arranged various emergency plans, and even if there was a situation, it would not be a big deal. After all, Lidu City is in a war zone, and no one can say what accidents will occur. But Zhang Ruming's scene made Li Jianshan panic in his heart.

On top of yesterday's security meeting, the key people in the palace thought of it, but they didn't take special care of the groom. Because Duan Lang, Li Jianshan and others felt that Zhang Ruming, whether he was in the front yard or in the cave room, had a large number of people following him, and there was no need to deliberately arrange personal guards. Moreover, when Zhang Ruming was on the stage, he was basically with Duan Lang. When I went to the backyard, there were Xiang Tian and others in the dark to protect me, and there would definitely be no problems with safety. Who would have thought that this guy would go to the backyard and actually return alone.

As soon as Luo Qian made a move, those Western Vietnamese guards who had not yet been exposed completely tore off their camouflage and surrounded Luo Qian.

Duan Lang pointed at the war knife in his hand and said coldly, "Let him go, I can let all of you out of the city, otherwise, you will be punished with capital punishment." ”

Luo Qian sneered, "We are all small people, and with Lord Shangguan by our side, it is worth dying." ”

Zhang Ruming struggled twice, and scolded angrily, "Paralyzed, if you have the ability, you will kill Lao Tzu, see if you dare." ”

Luo Qian slammed Zhang Ruming's head with the handle of the short blade, "Shut up, and then talk nonsense, Lao Tzu cut off your ears." ”

Zhang Ruming grinned in pain, and Duan Lang hurriedly signaled to him, which meant not to anger these people.

The guests in the front yard have all been evacuated, Li Jianshan has sent people to welcome those important guests into other courtyards, and the guards have surrounded Luo Qian and the others layer by layer. In the backyard, Yutai Mingyue and Azhu got the news, and they didn't care about the etiquette, so they ran over one after another.

"Let go of my husband, don't hurt him." In a hurry, Ah Zhu pulled out a short blade from his sleeve.

As soon as Yutai Mingyue and Ah Zhu came out of the backyard, Xiang Tian and the others naturally would not continue to hide. Seeing Zhang Ruming being kidnapped, Xiang Tian and the others glared angrily with long knives in their hands.

Duan Lang frowned, and said softly, "Ah Zhu, Yue'er, you go back first, it's not safe here." To the sky, protect them back to the backyard. ”

The eyes of the bright moon of the platform were looking at the people in the courtyard. When he saw Han Feng, Han Feng shook his head slightly and made a lost gesture. Yutai Mingyue's heart moved, and she hurriedly said.

"Lang, close the city gate immediately. These few are just pawns, grab the big people behind them. Admiral Li, immediately count the important guests and important personnel of the villa. Those who were not present were all listed as targets for arrest, and if there were any people who left the city, they would immediately ride out of the city to arrest them. ”

Hearing the arrangement of Mingyue, Li Jianshan hurriedly ordered to go down. Duan Lang couldn't help but secretly praise, they were all distracted by what was happening in front of them, only Mingyue's arrangement was the most important.

When Luo Qian heard this, a cold sweat broke out in his heart. The military advisor Lu Mu was waiting at the pick-up location outside the city, in case he was caught up by the fast horsemen, it would be troublesome.

"Get out of the way, let's get out of the city, or we'll be able to kill him now." Luo Qian shouted loudly.

Duan Lang snorted coldly, "Let go of Lord Shangguan, I will guarantee that you will leave alive in the honor of the commander in the army." Otherwise, none of you will want to see the sun tomorrow. ”

"General Duan, I believe your words, but I don't believe that others will let go of cold arrows. I can also guarantee that as long as we walk out of the city gate, we will let Lord Shangguan come back immediately. Luo Qian shouted.

"General Ben doesn't believe your words."

"You can prepare a fast horse for each of us, and as soon as we leave the city, we will release them immediately. Otherwise, let Lord Shangguan accompany the burial. As for believe it or not, you can do it yourself. Luo Qian said, with the force on his hand, the short blade pierced into Zhang Ruming's neck.

Zhang Ruming snorted in pain, "Paralyzed, Lao Tzu fought with you." Come on, shoot them. ”

Duan Lang raised his hand, "Slow!" ”

Luo Qian sneered, "General Duan, you have no choice. I will give you five breaths to think about it, otherwise, everyone will be burned. ”

"Duan Lang, don't listen to him, Lao Tzu hates someone threatening me the most. Kill ~ kill all these bastards. Zhang Ruming's eyes were red and he shouted.

Ah Zhu looked at Duan Lang with pleading eyes, at this moment, she knew that it was inconvenient for her to say anything. But for her husband's safety, she would rather exchange her life for it.

Duan Lang gritted his teeth, "Okay, I promise you." If you dare to break your promise after leaving the city, I promise you'll die a miserable death. ”

Li Jianshan and the others were stunned, no one believed that these guys would let go of Zhang Ruming after they left the city, so it was better to spend it in the mansion, and maybe they could seize the opportunity.

"Duan Lang~!"

Li Jianshan was about to stop it, but Duan Lang said sternly, "Execute the order." ”

Li Jianshan glanced at Duan Lang, and had no choice but to order someone to prepare horses. A group of guards surrounded Luo Qian and the others, slowly moving towards the gate of the mansion.

Duan Lang glanced at Ah Zhu and Mingyue, and said softly, "Don't leave the mansion, don't worry, I will bring Lao Zhang back." ”

After finishing speaking, Duan Lang whispered to Li Jianshan, "Brother Jianshan, your crossbow skills are very good, and you will look for an opportunity to shoot the leader directly." Xusheng immediately mobilized the sharpshooters in the army to stand by. Tell them that Lord Shangguan is wearing soft armor and don't have to worry. As soon as Jianshan made a move, he immediately shot him. ”

Li Jianshan and Liu Xusheng glanced at each other, and then they understood what Duan Lang meant. He's looking for an opportunity to kill those people on the move, not to compromise. Liu Xusheng hurriedly went to make arrangements, and Li Jianshan also made a simple arrangement in the mansion and followed Duan Lang out. Han Feng hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to stay in the mansion. Duan Lang had enough manpower on his side, and Han Feng was worried that there were still hidden spies in the mansion.

Luo Qian held Zhang Ruming in his arms, and his palms were a little sweaty. But he acted very sophisticated, clinging to Zhang Ruming, who was not tall. And Zhang Ruming's wide body also covered most of Luo Qian's body. Unless Li Jianshan risks shooting at the opponent's throat or head, as long as it is slightly deflected, it may hit Zhang Ruming. With this chance, Li Jianshan didn't dare to take risks.

Outside the capital city less than three miles away from the city gate, Lu Mu came here early under the protection of Chenghe and others. Don't look at Lu Mu, who dared to take the risk of staying in Lidu City these days, but today, Duan Lang and the old man's gaze made him lose the courage to continue waiting. If there is a mess in the house, if an investigation is carried out, Lu Mu will probably not be able to get out of the city gate for half a month. In case his identity is doxxed, it will be a bit more than worth the loss. For the sake of safety, Lu Mu's plans are also changing with the situation.

Lu Mu looked at the sky and estimated the hour, and commanded softly, "Chenghe, wait for another stick of incense, if they haven't come back yet, there is no need to wait." ”

"Your Excellency, you must leave first. Otherwise, if the capital city sends people out of the city to inspect, it will be a bit troublesome. Besides, the success of Luo Qian is no longer a matter of the overall situation, and there is no point in you waiting any longer. Chenghe persuaded.

Lu Mu thought for a while, "It's okay, leave the two of you waiting here." If you don't see anyone for an hour, return to the camp at once. ”

Lu Mu gave a few simple orders, leaving the two of them, and Cheng and Lu Mu quickly ran towards the direction of Landu City. It's not that Lu Mu is timid and afraid of death, as a soldier and horse division of West Vietnam, Lu Mu knows his importance. Even if Luo Qian and others are sacrificed, this trip to the capital city can be regarded as a great gain.

In the palace, Yutai Mingyue and Azhu did not return to the new house. The two came to the side of several spies who had been killed, and carefully observed. Especially Azhu, she is good at searching and tracking, and her observation is very detailed.

Seeing the sign of the villa, Yutai Mingyue's heart moved, and she raised her head and said to Han Feng, "Master, immediately send someone to notify the front and rear city gates, and once Lu Mo is found, he will be arrested immediately." If there is resistance, it will be killed. ”

Han Feng was stunned, "What, are you sure it's him?" ”

"It's better to kill by mistake than to let go. If it is a wrongful killing, I will bear this responsibility. Even if you are infamy, you can't let go of the major suspects. ”

"Okay, I'll go and have someone inform the front and back gates."

As soon as Han Feng left, Tantai Mingyue looked at Azhu and asked, "How is it, did you find anything?" ”

"Mingyue, the two deceased here have thick calluses on their right thumbs and index fingers, they should be good at bows and arrows. There are signs of leggings on their feet and calves, indicating that they have been wearing combat boots for a long time. These dead should have come from the army. ”

"People in the military?" Yutai Mingyue was stunned for a moment, and quickly analyzed it in her mind.

"Azhu, the elite soldiers and horses of Great Xia are all fighting on the front line. If it's someone sent by Yu Ban, I think it's more likely to be the palace guards and the dead soldiers of the rivers and lakes. Sister Azhu, you can't be mistaken, right? There are also many marksmen in the rivers and lakes, and Orion also wears leggings all year round. ”

Ah Zhu shook his head, "It's different, the people in the rivers and lakes and the hunters are wearing how comfortable and how to wear. However, the soldiers and guards in the army are different, and the uniforms are uniformly distributed, especially the legging combat boots, which are very uniform in height. You can see the marks of these people, as well as the way they wear their underwear, they are all exactly the same. Only guards who have been in the army all year round will develop this habit. Even when wearing civilian clothes, they are accustomed to folding their underwear in a uniform direction. In addition, they have the mark of wearing armor on their hairline. Azhu said, pointing to the inconspicuous indentations in the hairline of one of the deceased's men.

"People in the military? How could Yu Ban send the guards in the army to come, and the Huai of the Investigation and Defense Division was even more impossible. Could it be that I guessed wrong? Who else could it be besides them? Isn't it, these people are from ~ West Vietnam? ”

Tangtai Mingyue was shocked in his heart, these days he has been listing Lu Mu as a person sent by Kyoto, but Azhu pointed out the identity of the deceased, and Tangtai Mingyue suddenly understood that he was wrong.

"That Lu Mo is definitely a big fish. No, mine go to the city gates. ”

When Ah Zhu heard this, he quickly grabbed Mingyue from Tantai, "Princess Mingyue, there is chaos in the city now, you must not leave." ”

"It doesn't matter, their plans are messed up, the mansion should be safe, I'll let Master accompany me."

Tangtai Mingyue felt that Duan Lang had to be informed of this matter, even if he sent someone to pursue him, he couldn't let that Lu Mo escape. After all, it takes a few days to travel from Lidu City to Landu City, and Tangtai Mingyue didn't believe that Lu Mo could quickly pass the light cavalry horses of Lidu City.

Outside the gate of Lidu City, Duan Lang and the others did not dare to leave a single step, and followed Luo Qian and the others closely. The two guards who stayed behind saw Luo Qian holding Shangguan Xuanwu in custody, and quickly came over to join him. One of them whispered a few words in Luo Qian's ear, Luo Qian's face changed, and he immediately understood what the military advisor Lu Mu meant.

The two sides were confronting each other, Duan Lang's face was like ice, "Ben Shuai has already promised to let you out of the city, why don't you let Lord Shangguan go." ”

"General Duan, don't worry, if you talk about it, you will definitely let go of Lord Shangguan. However, it will have to wait two hours to do so. ”

"Two hours? What, what's next? Duan Lang's eyes showed a hint of murderous aura.

"Don't ask me why, after two hours, it's not far from sunset, we just want to give ourselves time to escape." Luo Qian argued.

"Hmph, if I want to kill you, even if it's night, you can't escape."

"Then there is no need for General Duan to worry about it, after all, it is convenient for us to hide in the dark night. There are many mountains, rivers and trees along the way, and it is easy to hide. ”

Duan Lang said coldly, "Actually, I'm very curious, why did you come to the West City Gate instead of the East City Gate. Now I can be sure that you people should be from the West Vietnamese. After all, this road leads to the city of Landu, and except for the people from the camp of Xiyue, no one will come to the capital to make trouble. It's a pity that you're in the wrong place and can't afford to make much of a storm. ”

Luo Qian didn't deny it, and sneered, "It's no pity, being able to hijack Shangguan Xuanwu is worth it to us." ”

"That Ben Shuai wants to know, what do you want to wait for now?"

As soon as Duan Lang finished speaking, he listened to the voice of Tangtai Mingyue from behind, "Lang~, they want to wait for Lu Mo to escape." I just finished asking the city gate guards, and Lu Mo had just left half an hour ago. Quick, immediately send someone in pursuit. Yutai Mingyue shouted as she rode over.

Duan Lang was stunned in his heart, and Luo Qian was even more shocked when he heard it, "If any of you dare to cross, Lao Tzu will kill him immediately." Luo Qian shouted fiercely.

The task given to him by Lu Mu was to delay, and Lu Mu was not for himself, but to try to buy time for the Landu City. Chenghe prepared a good horse for Lu Mu, even if it was half an hour in advance, Lu Mu didn't believe that he would catch up with him.

Mingyue came to Duan Lang's side under the protection of Han Feng, and Mingyue gasped slightly, "Sister Azhu found out that the deceased in the mansion was a soldier in the army, and he was holding a sign to build a villa. So I ordered the city gate to arrest Lu Mo, I thought that Lu Mu would still hide in the city, but I didn't expect him to be out of the city. ”

There was no need for Tantai Mingyue to explain, Duan Lang knew from Luo Qian's performance that Mingyue was right, that guy named Lu Mo definitely had a problem. Duan Lang secretly regretted that with Lu Mo's talent, he knew that he should be a big fish. But Zhang Ruming was in the hands of the other party, and Duan Lang really didn't dare to order the pursuit.

Duan Lang began to negotiate with the other party, wanting to take advantage of the distraction to let Li Jianshan shoot him. But Luo Qian was very cautious, and the tip of the knife did not leave Zhang Ruming's throat. Even his own head shrank behind Zhang Ruming.

Duan Lang was very anxious, but he had to stalemate. In this way, the two sides were in a stalemate for about half an hour. Suddenly, there were several crisp chirps in the air.

Duan Lang was shocked when he heard the voice, and his face suddenly changed. He understood what Da Fei meant, and a siege battle was taking place in Landu City. Except for a few people such as Li Jianshan, no one paid attention to the big flight in the air. But the only one who can understand the meaning of Da Fei's tweet is Duan Lang.

In the midst of anxiety, Duan Lang's heart moved, and he coughed twice, as if he whistled a few times very casually. Duan Lang's left hand also gave Li Jianshan and the others a hint of preparing for action.

Luo Qian looked at Duan Lang strangely, Duan Lang, who had been talking to him all the time just now, was still in the mood to whistle? Luo Qian looked at the people around Duan Lang vigilantly, he thought that this was a hint from Duan Lang to them.

At that moment, a dark shadow swooped down from the sky. The big flight in the air also made a crisp chirp. Luo Qian looked up and found that the claws of a big bird were grabbing his head, and he subconsciously raised his hand, and the sharp blade in his hand stabbed at Da Fei's claws.

In an instant, Li Jianshan seized the opportunity to raise his hand, and with a swishing crossbow in his hand, a sharp arrow shot out!
