The dock was still crowded with people, the difference was that everyone seemed to have anxious expressions on their faces, as if they were fleeing from something, and everyone was carrying large bundles of burdens, and women were helping the old and the young to squeeze into the already crowded cabin, which was a complete scene of escape. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, there was a boat, coming from a distance in the opposite direction, in stark contrast to the crowd of people who were racing to escape. It's just that this is not to attract the attention of too many people, everyone is busy running for their own lives, who has the heart to care about others.

As the boat slowly approached the pier, people rushed over again, with the obvious intention of wanting to leave by boat. Some of them, dressed in fancy costumes, shouted at the pier: "Send me away, you can pay whatever you want." ”

"I'll pay double, damn it, just you Wang Lao Wu is rich?" Suddenly, another person came out of the crowd and shouted equally loudly.

"Two great masters, you have money, and you can't completely ignore the lives and deaths of our poor people, this ship is so big, why can't you seat more people."

"That is, if you are rich, we are human beings, and we poor are not human beings. More than half of the money you earn is dug out of the ground for you. At this time, you still want to rely on your own money to cut off our way of life, but Lao Tzu is the first to refuse. ”

"Yes, no."

"Whoever is not has a life, they are all dead anyway, who is afraid of whom."

These words are like a torch that lights a straw, and there is a feeling of turmoil in an instant. The two masters, who were still arrogant and domineering, hurriedly apologized for their sins under the protection of their families, and immediately changed their words.

A young man on the boat leaned down, his eyes indifferent to what was happening below. He saw everyone's demeanor, but it didn't seem to be in his heart. At this time, a middle-aged man walked out from behind the young man, with a beard, a resolute face, a burly figure, and a steady pace.

"Mr. Lin, it's already docked, we can go down."

Lin Fei nodded and said, "When you sail back, if you can, help bring some old women and children on the boat and leave, after all, they are the most innocent." ”

The middle-aged man behind him said: "The adult said, we will listen to the gentleman on this trip, and the small one will talk to the boat boss at this time." ”

Walking through the crowd and walking into the city is even more deserted, and the scene of turning forward and side by side is completely gone. If he hadn't asked the people at the dock when he came, Lin Fei wouldn't have dared to walk in the city so blatantly at this time.

According to the people, ten days ago, I don't know which group of bandits on the mountain suddenly came out of the mountain like a divine soldier descending from the sky, and then began to attack the city in a hurry. At the time, it seemed to be nothing more than a group of people who had killed themselves, but after two days of attacking, the number of bandits was increasing. The city organized the city defense from not caring about it at the beginning, to the last urgent call for help, and now it has been holding on for nearly ten days.

The people in the city also didn't care about it at the beginning, to the current catastrophe, and then to the escape of their families and mouths, everything happened too fast. I don't know who gave the order to allow the people in the city to flee for their lives, so there was a scene that Lin Fei saw today.

Such a scene in the city is really worrying to watch. Judging from what has been known so far, there is no doubt that it must be the forces in Meifengling. But what kind of force will it be, with such courage and strength, and such a large-scale siege of the city? Lin Fei even wondered if Han Qi hadn't been able to escape that day, so that the other party would have such courage and make up his mind to attack the city.

It's just that at the moment, no matter how you think about it, it's useless, everything is just his guess. At this time, what he couldn't let go of in his heart was the master and Bai Peony and others who were far away on Baiyan Peak, are they still alive?

Now Lin Fei really can't wait to grow wings and fly over immediately, but people are not birds after all, the road is still under their feet, the road to Baiyan Peak must pass the city defense of Tianqing Mansion, and in this situation, how should it be?

"Who are you, sneaky, and what do you want here?" Just as he was falling into deep thought, a voice suddenly sounded in Lin Fei's ears, and his tone was full of arrogance and vigilance.

Lin Fei turned his head and saw that at a distance of only a few zhang away, five military men, holding swords, looked at Lin Fei and the two of them vigilantly, and there was a great possibility that they could do it at any time. Lin Fei didn't know what the specific martial arts of the man Yang Yinglong sent to protect him, but if he wanted to deal with the five people with weapons on the other side, he would definitely not be able to please him.

In a short moment, Lin Fei thought of various ways to respond in his mind, but in the end he still said: "In Xia Lin Fei, he and Commander Han Qi are old acquaintances, and when they met Commander Han in Below, the city was still peaceful, and I don't know why it was only more than half a month before it became like this?" ”

"You know our Commander?"

"Of course, just half a month ago, I met with Commander Han."

It is a big risk to say this, although he is watching Han Qi jump into the water, but when he is already injured, even if he is not injured, it must be a matter of death, if Han Qi is already dead, at this time, it is not only beneficial to say that it is old, but it may even cause death.

The soldiers looked at each other, and one of them said, "In this case, you go with us to Lord Totong, and everything is up to him." ”

In such a situation, Lin Fei couldn't choose, so he calmly followed forward.

......

Ten miles away from Tianqing Mansion, there are simple tents set up everywhere, but there are still many people sitting on the ground. These people are not dressed in the same way, but there are short swords and long ges beside them, gathered together in groups of three or five, holding food in their hands, and the time has come to noon.

A tall, sturdy young man, dressed in bronze armor and a long sword at his waist, walked through the crowd with a steady gait. The people around him who were originally sitting on the ground put down the food in their hands and wanted to get up, but he stopped them with gestures.

"You eat yours, I just come out to breathe, don't worry about me."

"General, this Tianqing Mansion, we can take it down at any time, why do we have to delay it so much?"

The young man sat down next to the questioner, grabbed a handful of boiled corn from the stove in front of him, and said while eating: "Tianqing Mansion can be taken at any time, but how do the people in the city deal with it?" We can't kill them all, can we? ”

"If those people escape, what's the use of us asking for an empty city?"

The young man looked at the soldier who asked this question, and couldn't help but admire: "This question is a good question, it is really useless for us to ask for an empty city. But don't forget, there are already many people in our Qinglong Mountain and the previously merged cottages, plus the villagers outside the city of Tianqing Mansion, how can it be an empty city. ”

"General, the subordinates are worried, if they delay like this, they will inevitably have a lot of dreams at night, and they are afraid that they will ......"

The young man interrupted: "You don't have to worry about this, the dragon head will naturally be thoughtful." All you have to do now is to cheer up and prepare to attack the city in the next game, I believe that it will be a few days before we take Tianqing Mansion. ”

Everyone suddenly felt a lot more stable in their hearts. The young man chatted with everyone casually, revealing his self-confidence and domineering in control. Who would have thought that the wanton young man at this time was still a righteous young man who was so reckless that he fought to the death in the ring for his brother a month ago. There are many things in the world that can change a person, but only war can change a person in the fastest time and change it beyond recognition.

"General, the dragon head has sent a messenger, wait in the tent first."

Suddenly, a voice broke the lively atmosphere, and the young man put down the food in his hand, stood up, and walked to the tent not far away. If Lin Fei was here at this time, he would definitely be able to recognize that this young general was his brother Wu E, who shared life and death.

A thin man stood in the tent, Wu E walked into the handsome tent, saw this back, frowned slightly, and said indifferently: "The master of the Wentang came in person, which really flattered me." ”

The man turned around, but it was Wenji. "A month ago, you were just a teenager in the village, but I didn't expect that a month later, you would be able to be on an equal footing with me. I hate to admit it, but I have to say, you're doing a good job. ”

Wu E smiled indifferently: "The praise I heard from the mouth of the master of the Wentang must be sincere. I don't know what is the important thing for the dragon head to send the hall master here? ”

Wen Ji Zhengse said: "I guess you have already guessed that the dragon head asked me to come to inform General Wu that he can already do it." Capture Tianqing Mansion within three days, the Yang family in Luzhou, has occupied Shunqing and Hanzhong, as long as we occupy Tianqing Mansion, we will be able to echo each other in the entire sphere of influence, so it can be regarded as invincible. ”

Wu E sneered in his heart, after more than a month of fighting, he changed not only his temperament, but also his insight. He has a clearer understanding of the world. How can there be any invincible place in this world, if you occupy Tianqing Mansion, you can be regarded as invincible, then why didn't the original Shu Han regime and the Northern Song Dynasty shrink back to this corner? Everything is a pros and cons, Tianqing Mansion is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but that is only relative to the outside. The city is surrounded by mountains on three sides, which limits the development of the city's population, and the permanent population of the city is only 100,000; The waterway is quite developed, and while the business and travel are prosperous, the city defense waterway has become one of its weaknesses. You must know that for a city with only 5,000 permanent troops, it is necessary to divide a part of the people to train the naval army, not to mention the quality, in terms of quantity alone, it is destined not to be too much.

Wu E actually didn't understand too much why Tianqing Mansion, which could be taken in an instant, why he had delayed it here, the reason for the people in the city was just what he used to appease his soldiers. But as soon as Wen Ji said this, he roughly understood, thinking that it was the news of the alliance between the Yang family in Luzhou and Qinglong Mountain, and the surrounding forces already knew that if they took Tianqing Mansion so smoothly, it would inevitably make other forces feel that the Yang family in Luzhou was developing too fast. Now that Shunqing and Hanzhong are occupied first, Tianqing Mansion is surrounded by mountains, and even if other forces react at this time, it is too late to intervene.

Thinking of this, Wu E took a deep breath, hugged his fists and said: "Please return to the head of the hall master, Wu E will definitely live up to his mission." ”

Wen Ji sat down on the side and said, "I'll wait here, when General Wu takes down Tianqing Mansion, I'll go back and resume my life." ”
