Ximen, Guo Kaishun faced the biggest choice in his life, because standing in front of him was the seventh prince Chu Haoyu. Guo Kaishun looked fifty or sixty years old, his hair was already mottled, his face was full of wrinkles, his thin body seemed to be bent over by this heavy time, and his gaze at Chu Haoyu was respectful and fearful, and a little flattering, even expectant.

Standing solemnly at the window and looking at the gloomy sky, Chu Haoyu said lightly: "It's going to rain." ”

With a pop, Guo Kaishun couldn't stand Chu Haoyu's coercion anymore and knelt down, kowtowed and bowed: "Lord Qiyu, it's not a small betrayal of Da Chu, it's just that Xiao'er was pressed as a hostage by Wei thieves, and the little one is helpless!" While speaking, Guo Kaishun kowtowed vigorously, making a loud sound, very loud.

Chu Haoyu didn't look back, and said again: "Tonight, Captain Shenji's 10,000 troops are attacking the city, and General Guo thinks that Qi'an City can be defended for a few days?" ”

"If I open the gates of the city, I won't be able to hold it for an hour, isn't that what you're here for?" Thinking so in his heart, Guo Kaishun showed a wry smile on his face, and finally made a decision after a moment of silence, and responded respectfully: "The little one is willing to open the West Gate, and he is also willing to forgive his sins with death, just ask the Seventh Prince to rescue the child, and the little one is grateful." ”

Since Chu Haoyu dared to appear at the West Gate, even if there was no defection from Guo Kaishun, he would have to decide on this West Gate, so he asked nonchalantly: "The Heavenly Thorn Rebel Thief does not act according to the usual theory, and this king doesn't know if your children are still alive, but you stay in Jiangdu, and this king will keep them safe." ”

Guo Kaishun knew that what the Seventh Prince said was the truth, and he had only met once since Xiao'er was arrested. Thinking of this, Guo Kaishun thought for a moment and bowed again: "The little one thanked the prince, but the little one still had a reluctant invitation." ”

Suddenly, Chu Haoyu's brows furrowed slightly, but he still opened his mouth and responded: "Speak." ”

Guo Kaishun heard the coldness in the words of the seventh prince, but he said stubbornly: "Lord Wang, the little one still has a hundred and ten personal soldiers, they have followed the little one for many years, and when the city gate is opened, the little one is willing to lead them to storm the general's mansion, if they are lucky enough to save a life, I hope that the prince will forgive them a lot." ”

Turning his head to stare at Guo Kaishun, Chu Haoyu seemed to guess what he was thinking, and said in a deep voice: "Yes." ”

Seeing that the seventh prince agreed, Guo Kaishun had an unconcealed joy on his face, and bowed again: "Thank you, the prince, the little one will go and open the city gate." ”

When Guo Kaishun opened the city gate, he was really frightened by the situation outside the city, thousands of troops appeared at the city gate quietly, the cold armor, the silent atmosphere, made people feel a chill inexplicably. Seeing this scene, a bean-sized cold sweat broke out on Guo Kaishun's forehead, and he let out a long sigh in his heart, if he didn't agree to the Seventh Prince, it was estimated that he would have become a corpse.

Outside the city, seeing the city gate open, although Jiang Mingde was puzzled, he couldn't hide a trace of excitement on his face. In the middle of the night, Changshi Guo Nanying quietly appeared in his big tent, asking him to immediately lead the Huwei army to the West Gate, although he was puzzled, but the Changshi Guo Nanying brought a handwritten letter from the main general Zhang Yaowei, the main general and the long history have spoken, how dare Jiang Mingde refuse, immediately ordered the Huwei army soldiers, and rushed to the West Gate City through the darkness.

Glancing at Jiang Mingde, Guo Nanying opened his mouth and said: "The Seventh Prince has opened the city gate, General Jiang, you must not disappoint the Seventh Prince and the general!" ”

Jiang Mingde heard the meaning of the old boss Guo Nanying's words, and hugged his fists and bowed: "Old general, you can rest assured, the last general will definitely live up to the disappointment of the general and the prince." Tiger Wei Army, enter the city. In the midst of the loud cheers, Jiang Mingde rushed into the city first, but although the horse's hooves were fast, they didn't make too much noise, since they were quietly entering the city, they naturally had to give the enemy the biggest blow quietly.

Guo Nanying did not follow the army into the city, and walked up to the city tower and bowed to Chu Haoyu: "The last general will meet the prince." The prince entered the city alone and opened the west gate, such a heroic ambition, the end will admire! ”

Chu Haoyu's expression did not change in the slightest, and instead of answering, he opened his mouth and asked, "I heard about the siege strategy set by the old general?" ”

Guo Nanying heard the appreciation in Chu Haoyu's words, and chuckled: "General Zhang is a great talent, but he just wants to attack him unprepared, which makes the old minister ugly." ”

"Offering ugliness?" muttered to himself, a smile appeared on the corner of Chu Haoyu's mouth, and said: "The feint attack becomes a strong attack, besieging the east gate, the south gate, and the north gate, but it is to knock on the west gate with a trick. ”

Guo Nanying struggled to come up with this siege plan between reality and fiction, and he was still a little proud in his heart, but in the face of the praise of the Seventh Prince, he bowed down and said: "The prince has a good reputation, and only you, the prince, can open the west gate so easily, and the first credit must be recorded on your head." ”

Chu Haoyu smiled and didn't say anything more, but said in a different way: "The Huwei army has entered the city, and the overall situation has been decided, but Wei Jiangtao, a thief, must take his head." ”

Hearing that the Seventh Prince only needs Wei Jiangtao's head and doesn't want to live, Guo Nanying's eyes showed a different color, but after all, he has seen too many things in the court for decades, and he instantly understood the reason. Thinking about it, Guo Nanying had an undisguised admiration on her face, bowed down and said: "The prince's heart is like a bright moon, and the end will admire!" ”

Chu Haoyu still didn't have an interface, and said in a different way: "This king will go to the Taishou Mansion, General Guo, prepare the horses, and this king will leave today." ”

Just as the two were talking, a team of soldiers with black armor had already arrived at the West Gate, it was Chu Haoyu's personal guard, the blood guard. Seeing Chu Haoyu walking down the city tower step by step, Guo Nanying bowed down and bowed: "The last general will be ordered!" ”

Because the Huwei army suddenly appeared in the city and killed the city tower from behind, the east and north gates have been in chaos, as for the west gate, after learning the news, many soldiers took off their armor and fled for their lives, but they didn't want to go out of the city not long before they encountered an army of thousands of people, which was the Pengcheng army led by Li Jizhong.

Taishou Mansion, although Sun Hou failed to attack it, he firmly surrounded Taishou Mansion, and when he saw Chu Haoyu dressed in white, he immediately bowed: "The little one has seen the son." ”

Glancing at Sun Hou, Chu Haoyu set his eyes on the dark Taishou Mansion, and opened his mouth to ask, "How is it?" ”

Sun Hou opened his mouth and replied: "Returning to Gongzi, there is no news yet, the small one has sent three waves of people in, and there is no movement at all." ”

Chu Haoyu has been in charge of Tianwei for many years, and he can't be clearer about the strength of the Eagle Guard, this time the people and horses dispatched by Qi'an are all elite, and their martial arts and minds are extraordinary, but they quietly folded in the Taishou Mansion, it seems that the strength of the Taishou Mansion is not weak! Thinking of this, a sneer appeared at the corner of Chu Haoyu's mouth, and he shouted: "Zhijian, attack." ”

Xu Zhijian was only the first sentinel of the blood guard, but the main general Li Mu followed Zhou Chu into Jiangnan, two deputy generals, Meng Haikuo followed Li Huairen to Jiangdu, and the other went to Pingjiang Mansion to protect the prince's family, and only more than 100 people led by Xu Zhijian were left. Hearing the order, Xu Zhijian clenched his fists and bowed: "Get the order!" ”

Straightening up, Xu Zhijian pulled out his sword and shouted: "Blood guard, attack." In the midst of the shouts, Xu Zhijian flew up and pounced on the Taishou Mansion, and the heavy gate was actually split open by him.

At the moment when Xu Zhijian split the gate, several feather arrows galloped and shot at Xu Zhijian, but at this moment, two blood guards quietly appeared in front of Xu Zhijian, and the horizontal knife was splashed without leaking, blocking all the feather arrows, and at the same time, several crossbow arrows flew out behind Xu Zhijian and shot at the archers. The speed of the crossbow bolts was so fast, and it brought brilliant blood flowers, so dazzling.

Most of the blood guards were born in the martial arts and have not weak martial arts, and they have eaten and lived together for nearly ten years, and they have an unspeakable tacit understanding, and with the cooperation of each other, they can easily capture the gate, and advance inside step by step.

Walking on the blood-soaked bluestone path, Chu Haoyu's expression seemed calm, but he kept thinking about why the Heavenly Thorn Traitor chose Qi'an, a city that could be captured by him in one day. After ten years of fighting openly and secretly with the Heavenly Thorn Rebel, Chu Haoyu didn't think that the Heavenly Thorn Rebel would casually choose a city to erect an anti-flag.

The blood guards cooperated tacitly, and few of them could resist their attacks, and soon occupied the central hall of the Taishou Mansion, and then divided into several teams and advanced to the backyard. Standing in the lobby, Chu Haoyu was silent for a moment and said to Sun Hou: "Be sure to find the Three Rabbits Xie Donglin, and teach Miao Miao Fairy Suo Po." ”

Sun Hou bowed down and said yes, led a team of eagle guard masters to walk out, and began to search for the traces of the Three Hares Xie Donglin, but Chu Haoyu didn't think that Xie Donglin was still in the Taishou Mansion, and he should leave.

It didn't take long for Xu Zhijian to stride over, bow down and say, "Lord Qiqi, I found something in the study, and I need the prince to decide." ”

"Lead the way." While speaking, Chu Haoyu had already raised his steps, and when he walked into the study and looked at the neat files on the table, Chu Haoyu's eyes showed a strange color. So neat, as if deliberately reserved for himself.

Picking up a file and looking at it casually, Chu Haoyu's expression became more and more cold, it turned out to be evidence that the officials of Huainan Province were greedy and could not engage in favoritism, from the metropolitan governor to the Jiupin officials, extremely detailed. After a moment of silence, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said, "Call Sun Hou back." ”

Soon, Sun Hou, who got the news, rushed back, bowed down and said, "Young Master Qi, I haven't been able to find any trace of Xie Donglin." ”

Shaking his head lightly, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said, "You don't have to look for it, he's already gone." You examine these files carefully, write them down with your heart, and burn them for the rest. ”

Sun Hou had followed Chu Haoyu for many years, understood what he meant, and saw if he could find a clue to the Heavenly Thorn Traitor, and immediately bowed: "The little one understands." ”

Nodding, Chu Haoyu said again: "This king will leave in a while, you stay in Qi'an, you must find out why the Heavenly Thorn rebel chose Qi'an." At the end of the words, Chu Haoyu walked away, while Sun Hou bowed down and responded: "The little one has an order." ”

When Chu Haoyu returned to the lobby, the sky was already white, the sky and the earth were hazy, just burning flames, red blood, and the sound of fighting that never fell, Qi'an City was like a purgatory on earth. At this moment, Zhang Yaowei, the chief general of the Divine Captain, and Guo Nanying, the chief of the long history, came together, and looked at Chu Haoyu, who was spotless in white, as if he was an immortal who appeared in the world, and like a demon king from the Nine Shadows, a completely different feeling, which made the two full of awe, he can make you move forward smoothly, and you can also think of hell.

Walking in front of Chu Haoyu, the two knelt down respectfully, and Zhang Yaowei even raised the head in his hand and bowed: "Lord Qiqi, this is the head of the traitor Wei Jiangtao, please take a look." ”
