Sure enough, Yu Xin immediately felt the murderous aura emanating from Gongsun behind him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Since I said a long time ago that Xia Ji can't be coerced out of the city, don't be reluctant at this time." Gongsun's face was pale, but his eyes shot at Yu Xin like a sharp sword.

Yu Xin was cold, quickly wiped the wanton nosebleed, turned around, didn't dare to look at Gongsun, waved his hand, and said with a weak heart: "Go, go!" ā€

"Well, let's go!" Xia Ji snatched a few steps forward, leaned over to Yu Xin's side, and tugged at Yu Xin's sleeve with a happy expression.

"What are you doing?" Yu Xin was startled and quickly shook his hand. It's just that Xia Ji clung tightly, and Yu Xin shook it a few times, but she didn't shake it off, and looked at Gongsun with a cold face with a sad face.

Gongsun surprisingly didn't have a seizure towards Yuxin, just stared at Xia Ji coldly.

"People miss you, they want to be with you." Xia Ji simply hugged Yu Xin's arm into her arms and looked at Gongsun like a demonstrator.

Yu Xin was still struggling, and when he saw Xia Ji making such an intimate action, his body suddenly became half numb. Although wearing the armor of Deputy General Chen, he couldn't feel anything, but the vanity of that man was greatly satisfied, this is the lord of a country, and he is still a charming beauty that the lord of Chu is worried about.

"If you want to, then you can follow." Gongsun unexpectedly glanced at Yu Xin, turned around and walked towards the east gate of the palace.

Xiang Yan and others still want to watch a good show, as long as they are not blind, they can see that Mr. Yu seems to be very afraid of Gongsun, and Gongsun hates to see Mr. Yu approaching Xia Ji, just now in the hall, a lot of scenes have been staged, and now Mr. Yu is even more excessive, this big drama has not climaxed?

Even some of the officials of Chen Guo noticed the situation in the palace, and they also discovered this, and even took the mentality of watching the play, to see what kind of storm this clever young general who only brought 2,000 men and horses, but could unexpectedly attack the palace of his own country, would face.

However, everyone was obviously disappointed in Gongsun.

"Let's go!" Xiang Yan sighed, waved his hand and ordered.

When the soldiers got the order, they pressed the officials and palace people of Chen Guo who were already mixed in the team and went to the east gate of the palace.

For a while, even the shadows of other people could not be seen in front of the main hall.

"Let's go!" Xia Ji saw that everyone turned away, so she immediately let go of Yu Xin's arm, followed behind the team of soldiers and mothers of Chu State, and walked slowly.

Yu Xin didn't know that Xia Ji just wanted to put eye drops on herself in front of Gongsun, wishing that Gongsun would beat him up. Although he hated it in his heart, he couldn't get angry at Xia Ji's bewitching and graceful figure. only pinched the fingers of someone he had taught before, and said secretly with hatred in his heart: "Sooner or later, I will teach you another lesson." ā€

When Yu Xin and the others pressed Chen Guo and others to the east gate of the palace, the soldiers of Chu State had already gathered.

As expected, after everyone saw Xia Ji, they erupted in exclamations, and the team also had a commotion, and many people's eyes were nailed to Xia Ji, but they whispered to the left and right.

Xiang Yan drank for a while before the team was cleaned up, and he was helpless in his heart, that is, he didn't say that when he first saw him, Rao is still dry mouth when he looked at Xia Ji now. It was precisely because he understood this that Xiang Yan did not blame his subordinate soldiers too much.

Xia Ji was used to this, and glanced at Gongsun arrogantly. She could feel that of all of them, she was the only one who didn't care much about herself, and she didn't have the desire that other outsiders saw in her eyes.

"Pull out the grain bag and get ready to go out of the city!" Yu Xin said solemnly. is about to reach the critical moment of life and death of his own people, and he can't be allowed not to be nervous.

"Humph! Now that I know I'm scared, how dare I break in? Natsuhime muttered quietly.

The soldier on one side had already prepared a long stick with a hook, and when she heard this, she immediately stepped forward, braving the heat, and hooked a bag of grain that was running with flames from the fire to the side.

Gradually, the volcano piled up in the cave of the city gate was hollowed out, and only the bricks of the city were burned red, vaguely indicating the fierce fire just now.

Yu Xin frowned, although the fire was gone, but looking at the reddened city bricks and the passage of the city gate, if you dare to go up immediately, you have to burn people. No wonder the Chen army outside the city did not dare to rush in. One knew that he would definitely coerce the lord of Chen Guo and a group of civil officials, and when the time came, a scuffle would cause even greater losses. Although there is no Chu army on the city wall, but Chen Jun does not have too much equipment to climb the city, at most he found some ladders, and the army wants to rely on these ladders to enter the palace, and I don't know how long it will take, and I am afraid of being ambushed, so I can be safe and sound in the palace.

"Go find some water and cool down the city gate." Yu Xin turned his head and said.

Even if there is a soldier girl under the leadership of the first commander, she goes out to look for water. Fortunately, where the other side had heavy grain and grass, there were many large urns filled with water, and buckets for scooping water.

The soldiers carried the water, went back and forth several times, splashed out hundreds of buckets of water, stirred up bursts of mist in the city gate hole, and suppressed the initial smoke.

As soon as the mist dissipated, a row of Chen soldiers and soldiers with bows and arrows were displayed outside the city gate.

Yu Xin looked at it intently, and he could obviously see the angry look on Chen Junbing's mother's face. Yu Xin's heart was frightened, it seems that his attack on the palace has poked Chen Jun's pain point, it seems that it is really difficult to be good today.

Yu Xin didn't want to think that among the thousands of troops in other countries, only 2,000 people captured their palaces, and all the people from the lord of the country to the palace were captured. How could Chen Jun not be angry, if he hadn't been restrained by the commander, I am afraid that the feather arrow in his hand would have shot Yu Xin and the others into a hornet's nest.

"Chen Jun outside, you can see it clearly. All of you officials in the Chen Kingdom are here! Don't hurry up and surrender yet. Xiang Yan shouted at the top of his voice.

Chen Jun suddenly burst into an uproar, at such a close distance, of course they could see clearly that their own officials wearing Chen Guo's civil official clothes had already become prisoners of the Chu army. Although everyone had a premonition in their hearts, they still couldn't help but shout and threatened to let Chu Jun release them.

Chen Junbing, who was even more excited, let go of the fingers that had been holding the bowstring, and the feather arrows were like a swarm, passing through the city gate hole and rushing towards Xiang Yan.

Xiang Yan had already anticipated the danger, so he unfolded his body to dodge in advance, but despite this, he inevitably rolled all over the ground to dodge. The fluffy ground that was burned by the fire had just been stained with water and turned into mud, which naturally made General Xiang a clay man, revealing a very embarrassed posture.

Fortunately, those Chen Junbing Niang saw that there were many of their own officials in the Chu army, so they didn't dare to scatter their arrows, and they all aimed at Xiang Yan, who was standing in front of the formation.

Yu Xin saw that those Chen soldiers seemed to be unrelenting to Xiang Yan, and hurriedly waved his hand, and some Chu soldiers pushed forward with knives against more than a dozen Chen State officials.

Chen Guobing, who was putting arrows, did not need to be restrained by her own generals, and hurriedly put down the longbow in her hand, scolding despicable.

Yu Xin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that this talisman was really effective, if these Chen State officials didn't use it, they would have to explain it to themselves as soon as they did it.

Yu Xin waved his hand again and ordered, "Let's go out!" ā€

Without having to tell him again, the soldiers of the Chu army embraced a Chen State official and slowly moved outside the city gate.

Those Chen troops really had a commotion, but they were reprimanded and restrained by those generals. Most of the captured officials were relatives of their clansmen. Naturally, they dare not act rashly than those ordinary soldiers.

For a time, the distance between the two armies was getting closer and closer. Chen's army was not attacking, and he could not retreat, and he showed a sense of helplessness for a while, and the military formation inevitably wavered.

Yu Xin smiled knowingly, so it seems that his side still has the upper hand in his heart, and those Chen Jun's rat traps are a good opportunity for the Chu army to break out of the encirclement!

But just when I was complacent, something strange happened!
