"Yes!" "Yes!" The two of them replied loudly, turned around and led the army to kill the ambush soldiers. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ling Yan turned around, the city gate was already half open, and some people had already poured out, all running towards Ling Yan and the others, looking panicked.

Ling Yan hurriedly said to Lu Gong: "General Lu! Rush over with your troops! Don't hurt the people! ”

"Yes!" Lu Gong replied loudly with a sharp voice, waved his gun, and led the troops to kill at the city gate.

Ling Yan raised his head, pointed the Moon Slashing Knife at Colonel Zuo, and said loudly, "Colonel Zuo!" If you have any other ability, use it quickly! ”

Colonel Zuo sneered, looking calm, and then he waved his hand in the void, only to see those Yellow Turban soldiers on the head of the city raising their arms almost at the same time, palms towards Ling Yan and the others under the city.

Almost at the same time, there was a sigh behind Ling Yan, accompanied by some shouts.

Cold sweat suddenly oozed from Ling Yan's forehead, and he didn't need to look back, he could also tell that those broken Yellow Turban soldiers also stretched out their arms at the same time, and that shout was naturally shouted by the soldiers led by Wen Ping-it was probably shouted by the powerful soldiers who had seen those Yellow Turban soldiers.

Ling Yan's heart was about to reach his throat, and he could feel his heart beating violently. But he knew better that even if he regretted it at this time, it was too late. So he didn't think about the consequences at all, and hurriedly said to Zhang Yi beside him: "General Zhang, prepare the archers to press the formation, and when I give the order, I will release arrows towards the city!" ”

"Yes!" Zhang Yi hurriedly gave an order to the archers behind him.

"Humph!" Colonel Zuo seemed to despise Ling Yan's command, "General Yan, if you want the whole army to come and die, why bother so much!" ”

After speaking, killing intent appeared on his face, and after sneering, he shook his hand again.

It was already obvious that Colonel Zuo was ordering the Yellow Turban soldiers to send internal air waves.

At the moment when Colonel Zuo's hand waved down, Ling Yan only felt his body tremble violently, and he gasped sharply.

At this moment, Ling Yan suddenly felt that he had lost other consciousness for a short time - "other" refers to everything except staring at the movements of the soldiers at the head of the city, naturally including the shouts and nimble figure of Lu Gong leading the troops towards the city gate, and of course, the shouts and running sounds of the army led by Wen Ping behind him.

At this moment, Ling Yan couldn't hear anything, and all his eyes could see was the movements of one of the Yellow Turban soldiers on the city.

In this mental concentration, for some reason, Ling Yan felt that his observation was so detailed that he had never been able to go before—he even captured the expression of the Yellow Turban soldier.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, anyway, Ling Yan thinks that he really saw all the movements and expressions of the Yellow Turban soldier - what he saw was that at the same time as Colonel Zuo's hand waved down again, the Yellow Turban soldier's expression tightened slightly, and the outstretched arm also shook slightly, and then on the palm of the Yellow Turban soldier's hand, a light blue light mist appeared, but in the next second, that light mist disappeared on the Yellow Turban soldier's palm. At the same time as the light mist disappeared, the arm of the Yellow Turban soldier shook suddenly, and the expression on his face was extremely strange, as if he was puzzled, as if he couldn't believe the facts, and at the same time, he seemed to be very uncomfortable, mixed with a painful look on his confused look, and the muscles on his face seemed to twitch.

A Yellow Turban soldier who was usually expressionless, but the expression on his face suddenly became so rich, it was no wonder that Ling Yan felt that person's expression was extremely strange.

And after this brief complicated expression, the yellow turban soldier tightened again, and his arm moved slightly.

This time, a blue mist appeared in the palm of his hand, but this time, it was lighter than the color just now, almost invisible, and the time that appeared was much shorter than just now, almost in a flash, and then, the soldier's movements and expressions were repeated again, but this time, the amplitude of the vibration of his arm was significantly doubled, and the look of confusion mixed with pain on his face was even more obvious, and it could be seen that he felt great pain in his body.

The Yellow Turban soldier's face, after a brief look of pain, withdrew his arm, and looked at his palm with stunned eyes.

All these actions actually took less than five seconds, but in Ling Yan's opinion, it seemed like half a century long, and when the soldier finally looked at his palm in a daze, Ling Yan gradually came back to his senses, and the sounds and pictures around him also entered his nerves again.

Ling Yan looked at the Yellow Turban soldier, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth - this smile was enough to represent the feeling in his heart at this time, it was an extremely comfortable feeling after extreme tension.

Ling Yan quickly glanced at the rest of the Yellow Turban soldiers on the city's head, and the movements and expressions of those Yellow Turban soldiers were not much different from those of the Yellow Turban soldiers.

Ling Yan didn't need to, and he didn't have the time to look back at the Yellow Turban soldiers who were in charge of the broken Yellow Turbans, and he knew that his strategy had succeeded—Liu Shi and his son's actions had succeeded.

All the Yellow Turban soldiers have been poisoned by the "Poison of Blood"!

Now, Ling Yan knew that it was time for him to exert his might.

For these mental activities, Ling Yan actually took less than two seconds.

Colonel Zuo at the head of the city was originally calm and relaxed, looking at Ling Yan with high spirits, but after waiting for a while, he didn't see the scene he expected, so he was also stunned and looked left and right.

The Yellow Turban soldiers at the head of the city also looked at Colonel Zuo in great confusion.

Colonel Zuo was only stunned for a second, as if he understood, a look of shock appeared on his face, and he hurriedly looked at Ling Yan under the city again.

"There is no time to lose." Ling Yan naturally wouldn't miss such a great opportunity, and without waiting for Colonel Zuo to give another order, he immediately ordered Zhang Yi beside him: "Order the archers, shoot arrows!" ”

As he spoke, Ling Yan also took out the pistol behind his back and aimed it at the Yellow Turban soldiers at the head of the city, firing several shots in succession.

Immediately afterward, batch after batch of arrows flew densely towards the city.

The Yellow Turban soldiers in the city had not yet recovered from the confusion of not being able to send out internal air waves, and they were directly killed by Ling Yan with a gun, and the arrows that followed killed nearly ten Yellow Turban soldiers.

In an instant, there were only three Yellow Turban soldiers left standing on the head of the city, and the three Yellow Turban soldiers also quickly dodged.

And Lu Gong, who led the army to the city gate, after dodging a large number of people pouring out, was also shocked to see the Yellow Turban soldiers at the city gate stretching out their arms, but then saw that the palms of those soldiers did not emit internal air waves, he was overjoyed again, and hurriedly rushed over again.

Colonel Zuo was furious when he saw the Yellow Turban soldiers beside him fall one after another, and shouted to the city: "Close the city gate!" ”

The city gate was slowly about to close again, and Lu Gong took the lead and stabbed the inside of the city gate with a spear, and three Yellow Turban soldiers were immediately stabbed to death.

The rest of the Yellow Turban soldiers hurriedly closed the city gates. While ordering the soldiers to rush into the city, Lü Gong pressed his spear against the city gate to prevent it from closing.

But it may have been threatened, and several people inside the city gate also helped the Yellow Turban soldiers to close the city gate. Ling Yan had an order first, not to hurt the people, and Lu Gong naturally did not dare to disobey, so he did not dare to use a spear to stab again. After all, his strength alone could not compare to the combined forces of those few people and soldiers, and how could the wooden pole of the spear withstand the thick iron gate?

Hearing only the sound of "click", the spear was broken, and then the gate was completely closed, and the soldiers beside Lu Gong were all blocked out.

After Colonel Zuo ordered the city gate to be closed, after glancing at Ling Yan, he looked into the distance, his brows furrowed, and his face was pale.

Ling Yan didn't pay attention to Lu Gong's attack on the city gate, and his eyes always stayed on Colonel Zuo. After firing those few shots, Ling Yan aimed the muzzle of the gun at Colonel Zuo's head, although the distance was very far, if Colonel Zuo had been standing still like that, Ling Yan would definitely be confident that he would be able to explode Colonel Zuo's head with one shot.

However, Ling Yan didn't shoot immediately, because his head was occupied by a question: his pistol was already aimed at him, why didn't he dodge and protect himself with his internal qi? Could it be that his internal qi is strong enough to protect him in his body? Can't even hurt him with a pistol?

Ling Yan absolutely didn't believe that Zuo Xiao would be strong to that extent, and what happened next easily verified his idea.

After Zhang Yi commanded the archers to release arrows towards the city, he himself took out his bow and arrows and shot them upward. When Ling Yan aimed his pistol at Colonel Zuo when he couldn't see a single Yellow Turban soldier in the city, Zhang Yi's bow and arrow were also aimed at Colonel Zuo.

Ling Yan was puzzled by Colonel Zuo's immobility, so he didn't shoot immediately; But Zhang Yi didn't think about it so much, and after pulling the bow full, he loosened the tight bowstring.

An arrow flew quickly towards Colonel Zuo - probably due to the surrounding environment, coupled with Zhang Yi's average archery ability, so he aimed it at Colonel Zuo's head, but after flying for a while, the arrow deviated from the intended direction, and flew towards Colonel Zuo's right chest near his shoulder.

Ling Yan saw all this. According to what he thought in his heart, with Colonel Zuo's reflexes, as long as he raised a hand, he could definitely block this arrow, and for Colonel Zuo, this kind of attack was basically useless.

But to Ling Yan's surprise, Colonel Zuo did not react at all, and Ling Yan watched as the arrow shot into Colonel Zuo's right chest. And the next development also confirmed that Zuo Xiao's internal qi did not have the effect of protecting the body when it did not form a "protective film" outside the body - after Zuo Xiao was hit by the arrow, his body suddenly tilted back, his left hand instinctively held down the position where he was shot by the arrow, and his eyes moved from a distance to the place where the arrow was hit, and the look on his face was painful.

Zhang Yi was very happy to see that he had shot Colonel Zuo.

While Ling Yan was happy, he thought of a question. He looked back, only to see that not far away, Wen Ping and You Heng commanded the soldiers, and most of the broken Yellow Turban soldiers were captured, and every two soldiers escorted a Yellow Turban soldier, and the rest of the Yellow Turban soldiers who resisted were all killed by Wen Ping and You Heng - the broken Yellow Turban soldiers did not hold weapons in their hands, as long as they could not exert their internal energy, they were no different from waste people who were slaughtered by others.

Seeing this scene, Ling Yan understood why Colonel Zuo was stunned and looked into the distance - he was feeling sorry for the Yellow Turban soldiers who were being bound.

Ling Yan had an idea, and shouted at Wen Ping and the others: "General Wen, bring the Yellow Turban soldiers over and kill them all!" ”

Colonel Zuo had already squatted down after being hit by an arrow, and when he heard Ling Yan's shout, he quickly stood up, leaned over the city, and shouted at Ling Yan: "Slow! ”

Ling Yan looked back at Colonel Zuo and sneered, "General Zuo, what do you want to do?" Your soldiers are like a waste, it's useless to keep them, if you die, you die! Why bother? ”

Colonel Zuo didn't know if it was the arrow in his body or the Yellow Turban soldiers who were caught by Ling Yan, his face looked very painful: "Don't kill them!" ”

Ling Yan laughed: "Colonel Zuo! It's all this time, and you're still threatening me? What else do you have to threaten me? I'm telling you, if I try to kill them now, it will only take a moment to bring them all down, do you believe it or not? ”

Colonel Zuo looked at Ling Yan coldly for a long time, the muscles on his cheeks moved a few times, and then he said in a calm voice: "General Yan, you let them go, retire and return to the village, and stop fighting for the time being today......"

"Haha......" This time it was Ling Yan's turn to be in high spirits, "Colonel Zuo, what are you kidding?" I'm going to break through your Juye Castle today, and I see that the city is about to be reached. How could I not eat fat meat to the mouth? ”

Colonel Zuo stared straight at Ling Yan and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Okay...... General Yan, you step back first, let me think about it for a while, and then decide whether to surrender or not......"

Zhang Yi and Lu Gong both persuaded Ling Yan on the side: "General Yan! Don't listen to thieves! He's trying to stall for time! The thief is gone, and he is wounded by an arrow, Juye City is at his fingertips, don't miss the opportunity! ”

Ling Yan knew that what Zhang Yi said was reasonable, and he could also predict that if he desperately attacked the city, he would soon be able to take Juye City - Colonel Zuo had no soldiers to defend the city, and he was also injured, no matter how powerful he was, it would be impossible for him to defeat a thousand enemies.

But Ling Yan had another plan in his heart, he understood the truth of "attacking the city for the bottom and attacking the heart for the top", and he also knew that if he forcibly took the city, and then let Colonel Zuo surrender willingly, it would be even more slim, let alone let Colonel Zuo go to rescue Yu Gengen.

So, after thinking about it for a while, Ling Yan quickly had an idea, and he nodded at Colonel Zuo: "Okay!" General Zuo, this time I will promise you not to attack the city first, and give you a chance to surrender on your own initiative! ”

When Lu Gong and Zhang Yi heard Ling Yan's words, they were greatly surprised, and hurriedly tried to persuade Ling Yan again, but they were stopped by Ling Yan with gestures.

Colonel Zuo smiled reluctantly: "Okay...... General Yan really has the demeanor of a general...... Then ask General Yan to give the order to release my soldiers! ”

Ling Yan smiled: "That's not good, I will take those soldiers of yours away." General Zuo, although I give you time to think about it, there is always a deadline, right? In this way, I will give you a few hours to think about it, and tonight is the deadline at midnight, and then, if you want to understand and surrender voluntarily, then I can assure you that all your soldiers will be safe and sound, and I will definitely not harm them; But if I still haven't gotten your decision after midnight, then I can't blame me, and I can assure you that I'll kill all the Yellow Turbans in the blink of an eye. ”

Colonel Zuo looked at Ling Yan with a cold face, looking at his eyes, as if he was about to devour Ling Yan alive, and after a long while, he said in a deep voice: "General Yan, I can think about it, but if you don't let go of my soldiers now, then I will kill all the people in this city." After saying that, he laughed dryly.

However, this time the situation was different, the initiative was in Ling Yan's hands, and Colonel Zuo could not threaten Ling Yan at all.

Ling Yan also smiled: "Okay, if you want to kill, kill it." Although I am very disgusted with the killing of civilians, I can't stop you from doing it, after all, this city is still yours now...... However, if you kill the people, it will be easier, and I will kill the Yellow Turbans, and then I will break through the gates. If you're lucky, run away, and if you're unlucky, you might die under my sword, hehe......"

Colonel Zuo's face became more and more ugly.

Without waiting for Colonel Zuo to say anything, Ling Yan Zhengse said again: "General Zuo, remember, tonight is the deadline, I will definitely not wait until tomorrow, you can decide for yourself what to do, if you decide, send someone to my camp to tell me, and I can decide what I want to do." After saying that, he gave the order and led the army to retreat.

When he retreated to the dense forest, Ling Yan looked back at Juye City from time to time - Colonel Zuo always stood at the head of the city, looking at this side, although his expression was not clear, Ling Yan could also imagine it.

On the way back to the camp, Ling Yan's mood was extremely good - this was a big victory! And it's a big win that determines the ultimate success or failure! Even if Zuo Xiao descends to the earth, he has no ability to return to heaven!

With this joy, Ling Yan actually wanted to whistle, but he didn't blow it after a few blows, so he gave up.

"Hmm...... The success of this time is still due to Liu Shi and his son! When I enter the city, I must repay them! If it weren't for their ......" Ling Yan was pondering these things in his heart when he was interrupted by Wen Ping's words.

Wen Ping's tone was extremely excited, and he said to Ling Yan: "General Yan! What a victory for our army this time! ”

Ling Yan smiled slightly and nodded.

You Heng reported on the other side: "General Yan, we have captured a total of eighty-two Yellow Turban thief soldiers, it seems that this is already all the soldiers and horses of the thief general of Zuo Colonel!" ”

"Hmm......" Ling Yan smiled again, and secretly pondered in his heart: In addition to the two or three who did not die on the head of the city, and a few who guarded the city gate, the rest of the Yellow Turban soldiers should have been arrested, and it seems that it should be all the "belongings" of Colonel Zuo.

"General Yan, what should you do with these thieves?" Wen Ping asked.

Ling Yan said: "Take them back to the camp, wait until midnight, if Colonel Zuo has no news, kill them." ”

At this time, Ling Yan noticed that Zhang Yi's expression was a little wrong, so he smiled and said, "General Zhang, what's wrong?" Are you still unhappy with my decision? ”

Zhang Yi looked depressed, hugged his fists and said, "The last general will not dare to ...... It's just that some can't figure it out. ”

"Hehe......" Ling Yan smiled, "General Zhang, please rest assured, I will definitely not make a loss-making transaction." ”

Wen Ping became smart this time, and also said: "General Zhang, don't worry too much, General Yan has his own reasons for doing this." ”

Ling Yan nodded, and said to Zhang Yi again: "General Zhang, if you have some ability, put a long line to catch a big fish, if I think well, Juye City will definitely be mine, don't rush at this time." ”
