Xue Yufeng led 30,000 soldiers and horses out of Yangzhou City, including 20,000 elite Xue family troops in Yangzhou, the future old man is in trouble, Yang Ping'an naturally wants to help, although the attitude of the Xue family father and son towards him is very vague, but he and Xue Yufeng are already a fait accompli.

Originally, Xue Yufeng only wanted to take away the 20,000 Xue family troops from the headquarters in consideration of Yangzhou's city defense, but Yang Ping'an was worried about her safety, so he allocated another 10,000 soldiers and horses.

In fact, these soldiers and horses are far from enough for the Hailing area, which has formed a battle scale, worried about Xue Yufeng's own safety, the night before she left, after the two of them went crazy all night, Yang Ping'an hugged her naked and naked delicate body and whispered something.

"If you go to Hailing, if you can't catch it or fall into the siege of the Zhou army, you can tell General Zhou as a last resort, saying that you are my Yang Ping'an's wife, if they dare to hurt you, I will crush him to ashes in the future."

A "wife" made Xue Yufeng tender; The concern in Yang Ping'an's words made her feel warm, if it weren't for the fact that she would lead the troops out of the city tomorrow, she would be eager to fight with Yang Ping'an again.

However, the tone of these words was a little arrogant, which made Xue Yufeng moved and a little funny, and did not take it to heart.

On the third day after Xue Yufeng led his troops to aid Hailing, Yangzhou City received an urgent report from Tianchang, and the Guabu Zhou army sent 150,000 troops to attack [***], [***] urgent.

[***] is not as good as Yangzhou, after the outbreak of the war changed hands several times, until Xu Yuan was transferred to [***] Taishou, he began to strengthen the city.

Knowing that the Zhou army sent troops from Guabu, Kong Haoxia led 30,000 troops with the intention of ambushing halfway, but was defeated by the Zhou generals, if it were not for Xu Yuan's safety, he personally led 50,000 troops to meet outside the city, and the 30,000 Tang army led by Kong Haoxia was only afraid that there was a risk of annihilation of the whole army.

After the defeat in the first battle, Xu Yuan discussed with Kong Haoxia and took turns to send 10,000 troops and horses to harass the Zhou army, with the purpose of delaying the Zhou army's march speed and gaining time for the reinforcement of the city defense.

But Guabu is not far away from [***], and the Zhou generals who led the army this time are obviously much higher than Kou Xiong, Ning Zhenmo and others, although the Zhou army had to slow down the march due to the disturbance of the Tang Bureau in the early stage, but quickly made countermeasures.

After ambushing two tens of thousands of troops of the Tang army one after another, Xu Yuan no longer dared to send troops to attack and harass, so he could only withdraw all his troops to the city, intending to hold on.

If it is replaced by Yangzhou, he is ninety percent sure that he will not lose the city, but [***]...... He didn't know the bottom of his heart, [***] the grain, grass and ordnance in the city were too little to hoard, and the city was too damaged, and the people in the city had already been frightened by the war many times.

If it weren't for Xu Yuan following Yang Ping'an's example, he ordered Kong Haoxia to kill hundreds of people who wanted to escape from [***], and the people of [***] City, I am afraid that they would all run away.

To add, now in the [***] city, the rest are poor people, but those who have some ability have already fled north, and the nobles and rich people have packed up their homes and gone north with dozens of carts before the war spread to [***].

Internally, the people are in a panic and the people's hearts are unstable; Externally, the Zhou army was strong, and after repeated consideration, Xu Yuan thought that it would be difficult to defend [***] in this situation, so he decided to ask for help.

He sent a number of messengers for help, including Chuzhou, but the Zhou army outside the city had already been prepared, and long before the soldiers came to the city, they sent a small force to infiltrate the gates of the city in disguise.

In the end, there was only one wave left, and the chased fled to Tianchang, but fortunately, Chu Pei found that he led the troops out of the city in time and scared off the pursuers, and then he learned that [***] was in danger.

The stakes were so great that Chu Pei did not dare to delay, and immediately sent two letters, one to Xuyi and the other to Yangzhou, both of which were heavily garrisoned, and they were the two closest cities to Tianchang.

It's just that he didn't know that the two envoys sent out, only the one who went to Yangzhou saw Yang Ping'an, and the one who went to Xuyi was intercepted and killed halfway.

After learning the details, Yang Ping'an always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say why.

But [***] told him that he couldn't sit idly by, after Yang Rui's appointment, most people understood that Yang Ping'an became the nameless Yangzhou Baili Hou, Yangzhou, Tianchang, and [***] have all become his "fiefdoms", enjoying the power of military and political appointments in the three places.

Now that the Zhou army is attacking [***], how can he stand by and watch.

I had no choice but to send An Lushan to lead 30,000 troops, and join the 10,000 soldiers and horses of Tianchang led by Li Linfu, a total of 40,000 galloped to help.

The reason why Tianchang was Li Linfu leading the troops instead of Chu Pei was because Yang Ping'an felt that the war on [***] side was a little unspeakably weird, and he was worried that there was fraud in it, so he asked Li Linfu to help.

Li Linfu is a half-witted person in reading, and he doesn't know anything about war, but Yang Ping'an took a fancy to Ya's scheming and asked him to cooperate with Xu Yuan to prevent Zhou Jun's conspiracy.

First, Xue Yufeng led 30,000 troops to aid Hailing, and then An Lushan led 30,000 troops to rescue [***], and now Yangzhou's troops are weak.

Yang Ping'an was worried that something would happen, so he immediately gathered all the soldiers and horses in Yangzhou City, and only released a small number of sentries to inquire about intelligence around.

There are not many people around him who can be trusted, and suddenly there are no Xue Yufeng and An Lushan, and only one Yang Guozhong is left who can make him speak from the bottom of his heart.

It's just that Yang Guozhong has been very busy recently, taking advantage of An Lushan's absence in the city, while being in the limelight, he also tried to install his henchmen in the army.

That's right, it's a confidant, Yang Guozhong has begun to gather his henchmen, and the two major competitors are no longer in Yangzhou, so how can he miss such a good opportunity.

In addition, he also took over part of An Lushan's work to rectify public security in Yangzhou.

However, the core part of Yangzhou soldiers and horses, he definitely can't intervene and dare not intervene, that is Yang Ping'an's forbidden area.

Without Xue Yufeng and An Lushan, the training in the military camp was still carried out in an orderly manner, and there was no change due to the departure of the two main generals.

Accustomed to having someone warm the bed every night, the time when Xue Yufeng left made Yang Ping'an feel a little uncomfortable when he slept, and seemed to be lonely.

So he thought of Yang Yuhuan, the woman who made him difficult to see.

When he was in Nanjing, he really thought that he had successfully made this beauty, who was ranked among the four beauties in China and had the reputation of "shy flower", return to his heart, and occasionally he was a little secretly proud.

But now, he really can't see clearly, Yang Yuhuan can't adapt to the shadow in his heart, and he doesn't have a round room in the same bed with him, and now in his opinion, it should be intentional.

Shadow, go to the shadow of Nima.

At night, the city of Yangzhou sank into the bright lights, and the calm for many days made the people in the city forget that Yangzhou was still at war, and the rich nightlife was not reduced too much.

Three days ago from the eastern capital of the song and dance troupe came to Yangzhou, scheduled tonight in Yangzhou the most famous Qinglou performance, Yangzhou people have not enjoyed this kind of high-level song and dance performance for a long time, suddenly flocking to it, tonight almost the green building around the water can not be drained.

Yang Ping'an also knew about this, but he didn't dare to go to the Qinglou to play, because Xue Yufeng, and more importantly, he wanted to erect a flawless positive image in Yangzhou City, so that Yangzhou could become his solid foundation, so he couldn't remember it.

The night was long, and he walked out of the courtyard gate without sleeping, and after retreating from the people, he came to the door of the courtyard where Yang Yuhuan was.

He stretched out his hand to knock on the door, but just as his fingers were about to touch the door, he hesitated.

At the same time, the performance of the song and dance troupe from the eastern capital is underway, although Yangzhou is in the range of the war between the Tang and Zhou countries, but Yangzhou is calm, and at this time the profits will be more, and there will naturally be merchants to weigh the pros and cons, in order to chase higher profits to Yangzhou.

However, they made a mistake this time, it seems that the outside is peaceful, and Yangzhou, which has not seen the Zhou army coming, is in crisis inside.

This song and dance troupe is not the top in Luoyang, but it can also be called first-class, and it was invited to Yangzhou by three times the remuneration of Qinglou, and it was greatly sought after.

It's not that the people of Yangzhou have low vision and haven't seen a top-notch song and dance troupe, but because after the outbreak of the war, even a first-class song and dance troupe has never been to Yangzhou.

Tonight's premiere, the hall on the first floor of the Qinglou can be described as a sea of people, and the boxes on the second and third floors are as usual, but those who can go up to the second and third floors are all rich and noble.

A "boarding fee" blocked Jiuchengren.

Yang Guozhong naturally belongs to the remaining Yicheng, and it is on the second floor.

Since the performance is in the lobby on the first floor, the circular structure of the interior of the green building makes the second floor the most sought-after place.

Yang Guozhong, who had almost forgotten the word "temporary", was the guest among the distinguished guests of the Qinglou, and got the best room on the second floor.

Hugging left and right in his arms, his hands took advantage of him, and he enjoyed the wine and food of the beauties on the left and right, but his eyes were staring directly at the masked woman who was leading the dance on the stage.

Although the dancing girl who led the dance was veiled, judging from her naked and exposed skin, it was like a white jade that could be broken by blowing, and she had a graceful figure and a graceful figure...... In the words of later generations, the measurements are amazing, the flexibility is extremely high, and you can try all kinds of large-scale movements.

Just as he was thinking about letting the masked dancer who led the dance tonight, and the third dancer from the left in the second row behind him serve him together, suddenly three figures rushed onto the stage, with swords in their hands, and took the head of the masked dancer.

"Bold." Yang Guozhong suddenly got up and scolded loudly, quite manly.

It's just that the three killers didn't care about him, and others were also shocked by this sudden change, and they couldn't react for a while.

It was a matter of life and death, and the masked dancer was the first to react, screaming in fright, and was about to retreat, but she was unable to pull herself down by herself.

In the process of falling to the ground, the face towel on his face was sent off, revealing a beautiful face.

It's so beautiful, it's a pity, a flower was folded like this, Yang Guozhong secretly sighed, and at the same time was furious in his heart, planning to mobilize the government and patrol generals to break the corpses of these three spicy people who destroyed flowers into thousands of pieces.

However, the unexpected arose.

The three killers saw the face of the dancing girl clearly, and the figure was stunned, and one of them said in a low voice: "Suffer, plan, retreat quickly." ”

"If you're here, why bother?" Among the guests who had not yet reacted, a loud voice sounded, and before the words fell, six figures rose into the air from different directions, directly taking the three assassins on the stage, each with a sharp sword in his hand.
