Chapter 16: The Night Wind Rises, and the Fighting Day Dawns (1)
In an old mansion in the city of Muzhou, the courtyard looks bleak and cold......
"The shopkeeper, according to the agreement, several families have already sent people to Simen, and now it seems that everything is going well."
"The people of the Lu family and Hong Ji didn't ask?" In the study of the old house, the old man stood in front of the bookcase, listening to the old housekeeper next to him, while staring at the bookcase in front of him, "Old Lu has endured for many years, he shouldn't be such an imprudent person, the squire in the city suddenly pays money, he will definitely have some scruples, you have to let people pay more attention......
"That's what the lord said." The steward next to him nodded, but his face was a little contemptuous, "However, we let people send food, and a large sum of silver, which of those dirt buns is not happy, how can you suspect anything, when the villain came back, the shopkeeper of the Lu family also asked me to bring a message, saying that the head of the Lu family and the steward of Hong Ji wanted to come to the door to thank you!" ”
At this time, his tone was already full of disdain and contempt, the old man turned his head and glared at the other party, his face was already displeased, the old steward hurriedly stopped his mouth, lowered his head, and his body couldn't help but take half a step back.
The old man is the principal of the Liu family in Muzhou City, the Liu family in Muzhou City is not the richest, nor is it the most powerful, just like the old mansion of the Liu family, Xiao Suo is cold and not even conspicuous, but since the Helan family has controlled Muzhou, the Liu family is also rarely provoked, for decades, the powerful in the city or in trouble, whether the other party is Daxia or reckless, as long as he asks the old man here, he can get a good result, over time, the magnates in Muzhou City are either afraid of the Liu family, or grateful, can also take care of the Liu family's main affairs, otherwise they would not be gathered together by the old man overnight, let alone completely obey the other party's arrangement.
"You've been with me for so many years, but you're getting better and better? The relationship between his Lu family and Hong Ji has not been revealed for so long, and so many people have emerged overnight to capture a mansion city, do you really think it is by luck? ”
"Don't underestimate them, they are fighting for their lives, and now we are the same, don't leave anything to chance." Liu Lao coldly smashed the words on the face of the subordinate beside him, and the other party always lowered his head until the end.
"Okay, you go down, the news from the Liu family can't be broken, and the four doors must continue to investigate, if there is any change, you can report it, and the news can't be broken until the night!"
"Hey, I'll tell you." The old steward withdrew from the study, leaving only Liu Lao alone, exhaled heavily, and his eyes fell back on the table in front of him, which was a word.
"Draw salary from the bottom of the kettle" was silently recited in his mouth, and only then did the frown on his face ease slightly.
In fact, as early as the chaos in Hongji City, the Lu family rose up, the night of the chaos in Muzhou City, the old man sent a few henchmen to contact the city, or stared at the changes in the city, the relationship between the old man and the Helan family is not enough for outsiders, and no one knows the secrets, after all, when the Helan family settled in Muzhou, the old man's father was just a steward of the original Muzhou Taishou family, dedicated the city defense map, and sold the Taishou's family coefficient to the Helan family, in exchange for the future of the Liu family.
And the older generation knows that it is not glorious, so they hide their identity, the Helan family can have such a response, but there is nothing unusual, over time the Liu family has become the shadow of the Helan family in the city of the Chinese Dynasty immigrants, that day Liu Lao also saw the Helan family male coefficient was killed, the old man was also surprised to do things with the Lu family and Hong Ji, what he didn't expect was that just by virtue of the mud legs in the city, Hong Ji and the Lu family actually guarded the city of Muzhou for two days, but from the scene in the city, The old man thinks that this is the case, and it is time to give an explanation to the Helan family and continue the wealth and glory of the Liu family......
In the barracks outside the city, a faint groan of pain could be heard in the same night, and it was the camp behind the camp that was used to house the wounded, where the wounded soldiers were placed, and not far from the camp tent, several mounds of earth could be faintly seen.
A few days of siege will inevitably lead to deaths and injuries, not to mention that most of these people are remnants of Kyushu, and it doesn't matter to Helan Feng today, just afraid of these lives.
"Hey...... Pull people out, just bury them all together, don't worry about it......" The old man with a bloody hand in the camp tent let out a long breath, and now he is the only Lang Zhong here, coming out of the camp tent, he is meeting a general, at this time can come over naturally will not be the general of Daxia, the other party saluted Lang Zhong, "Fortunately." ”
"The general is not at ease with his subordinates?" While wiping the blood on his hands, the old man turned his head to look at the general on the side, "Wait until the day the city is broken, please keep people under the general's sword." There was a bit of banter in his tone.
"What did Elder Wu say, now I can't help myself."
"Don't tell me these words to the general, I'm alone, now the people who defend the city are the fathers and elders in the city, so many people have died in the Helan family, and when the city is broken, I just don't know how the general should choose?!" Listening to Lang Zhong's words, the general's face became more and more gloomy.
"You tell me the truth, there are many letters from family members in the city in the army these days, are you ...... Or are you just Hung Kee's work? ”
"What? The general wants to take me? Lang Zhong said that this had washed away the blood stains in his hands, "A cheap life, even if the general takes it"
The general looked at Lang Zhong and turned to leave......
On the third day of the Helan family's siege of the city, the old woman of the Helan family in the camp held her husband's head in her arms, Helan Feng knelt on the ground with a sound of armor, and behind him were several generals of the Helan family, and everyone had a heavy face, "Ancestor, rest assured, tonight my grandson will take revenge on my Dutch clan, if they kill me, I will use the lives of a hundred people to resist." ”
"Okay, your grandfather and I are waiting for you to come back!" The old woman's face was hideous, the head in her arms was her husband, the previous head of the Helan family, Helan Feng bowed to the woman, turned around and went out of the camp, although it was attacked for three days, but in addition to the first day, the next two days, Helan Feng did not use the elite of the Helan family, most of the tens of thousands of people are still the children around Muzhou, after all, the Chinese in Kyushu are still the majority, since the first day did not beat the city, Helan Feng did not blindly attack, because the old man of the Liu family sent a letter, waiting for tonight, inside and outside, The people who left Hong Ji and the Lu family were also able to clear the hidden dangers in Muzhou.
"Curtain call, let your people attack the north gate, Kordo will take people to the west gate with me, and tonight I will let them know how powerful my Great Xia warriors are!"
Looking at Helan Feng's face, a trace of entanglement flashed in the eyes of the general named Curtain Call.
