Dong Jingzhen heard Zhang Xiu say that Zheng Wenxiu was antipathetic, and couldn't help but ask, "General Zhang Lang, this matter can be big or small, and you can't talk nonsense." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Zhang Xiuzheng said: "General Dong, do you think I look like a person who chews the root of my tongue?" ”

Dong Jingzhen looked at it for a long time, and then shook her head, "It's not like it." Can...... Why don't you tell Lord Dou about this? ”

Zhang Xiu smiled bitterly: "I am loyal to the imperial court, although I have no outstanding military achievements......

"It's a great achievement for you to do it in Jiangxia." Dong Jingzhen intercepted.

Zhang Xiu smiled and said: "Compared with General Dong's expedition to the east and west, it is far worse to pacify the bandits in the south of the Yangtze River." ”

Dong Jingzhen is a little proud, although Li Jing took the action to pacify Jiangnan, after all, he is also involved in it, and it can be regarded as a proud thing in this life.

Zhang Xiu said again: "I'm only afraid...... There should be more than one Zheng Wenxiu. In Xiangyang City, there are only two people who will never betray the imperial court, one is Lord Dou, and the other is General Dong. ”

Dong Jingzhen sensed the seriousness of the situation and lowered her voice, "You said that Tang Jun has a lot of internal responses?" ”

Zhang Xiuzheng said: "Tang Jun buys people's hearts, it is by no means just one. Be careful to make the ship of ten thousand years, I always have to find some reliable people in this matter, although Lord Dou is loyal, after all, he is a civil servant, hesitant, and it is easy to say that he convinces people with benevolence. I took the liberty of saying it, but I was afraid that he would reprimand me for being suspicious, and even more startling, but it was not beautiful. ”

Dong Jingzhen nodded again and again, "Lord Dou is good, but a good old man, it is indeed possible to be as you say, so tell me, what about it?" ”

Zhang Xiu looked around again, and said cautiously: "This matter will be cut first!" These days, I have secretly observed and found that Zheng Wenxiu has a mysterious relationship with a stranger, and I now have conclusive evidence. General Dong, do you recognize Zheng Wenxiu's handwriting? ”

"Yes, so what?"

Zhang Xiu stretched out his hand and took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Dong Jingzhen and said, "General Dong, please look!" ”

Dong Jingzhen looked at it, her face was red, and she was furious, "How dare you do this?" It turned out that the letter turned out to be a letter written by Zheng Wenxiu to Li Yuan, the letter was lowly worded, and it was extremely flattering, saying that if you go to Xiangyang, you should take the lead and crusade against the Eastern Capital. But Dong Jingzhen is not a reckless person after all, and after being angry, he wondered: "This letter should be top secret, how could it fall into your hands?" ”

Zhang Xiu said unhurriedly: "I have long felt that Zheng Wenxiu is wrong, so I have been staring at him." This letter was handed over to a reliable subordinate yesterday to be sent to Guanzhong, and I intercepted it halfway and killed the subordinate person. Until now, Zheng Wenxiu should not have known. But I think they're probably going to be launched in the next few days. ”

Dong Jingzhen snorted coldly: "General Li is here right now, what if they have the ability to reach the sky?" ”

"General Li is also a human being, and he doesn't necessarily count everything. Besides, we eat the king's fortune and share the worries with the king, how can we rely on General Li for everything? Besides, General Li said that it would arrive in three days at the earliest, and if there was a delay, I was afraid that it would be delayed for half a month, who could guarantee that the Tang army should not be the first to launch? ”

"What do you think?" Dong Jingzhen asked.

"If there is no continuation, you will be troubled." Zhang Xiu said: "Zheng Wenxiu is extraordinary, I should ask General Dong to join forces with me, and take my own soldiers to arrest Zheng Wenxiu tonight." With this letter presented, Lord Dou will not blame, if other evidence can be found, he can wipe out the Tang army in the city! ”

Dong Jingzhen frowned, looked at the letter again, and hesitated.

Zhang Xiu stretched out his hand to wipe his neck, "General Dong, I am brave and loyal, if there is anything wrong, I will bear it." ”

Dong Jingzhen finally nodded, "I'm not afraid of taking responsibility, I'm just afraid of blaming good people." In this way, tonight, at the second watch, you and I will lead the troops to meet in front of your mansion, and then the third watch will arrive at the Zheng mansion, arrest him first, and do not kill him, in case there is any problem. Wait until the evidence is conclusive, and then ask Lord Dou to convict him. ”

Zhang Xiu nodded again and again, and the two of them had decided, walked out of the streets, and turned back to their respective mansions. When Dong Jingzhen passed by a restaurant, he heard a lot of noise inside, looked around, and saw that there were people gathered there. Looking up, seeing Zhou Muru's red face and red ears and drunkenness, several people couldn't stop him, Dong Jingzhen frowned, and finally pushed aside the crowd and walked in.

When the owner of the restaurant saw Dong Jingzhen coming, he hurriedly said, "Master Dong, you came just in time." Zhou Lang will drink too much, we want to persuade him to go back, but he just refuses. ”

Dong Jingzhen shook his head secretly, back then, he and Lei Shimeng, Zhou Muru, and Ah Rust were the main generals, responsible for resisting Lin Shihong, Zhang Shanan and a gang of bandits, and they could be regarded as fighting side by side, and they had some friendships. But not everyone is a general's life, fighting for many years, seeing countless dead people every day, some people become insensitive, treating blood like water, and some people can't bear it, and can't sleep at night. I heard that Ah Rust was reluctant to fight, because he was transferred back to Kim Yong City by Xiao Buyi, this Zhou Muru is better, but he is stubborn, if he encounters any injustices that deceive the people, he should take care of it. Because of this, he has a good reputation in Xiangyang City, and the owner of the restaurant also knows Zhou Muru, so he didn't complain, he just hoped that he could leave and not affect his business.

Dong Jingzhen stepped forward, half-persuaded Zhou Muru to leave the restaurant, listened to Zhou Muru talking to himself, couldn't help but smile bitterly, and prepared to send him back to the house first. Zhou Muru suddenly said, "General Dong...... You said...... If you say you are a brother, will you be a brother for life? ”

Dong Jingzhen was slightly stunned and replied, "It should be, right?" ”

"No, no." Zhou Muru shook his head and muttered: "If you are an official and have a high status, you are not a brother." ”

Dong Jingzhen is not stupid, he feels that he is talking about Xiao Buyi, this kind of thing is not good to talk about, so he just keeps silent.

Zhou Muru said again: "I don't want to be a general, I don't want to be a high-ranking official, I just want to be the same as before, everyone is happy, how good is that?" Shaking his head, he said: "It's impossible, this road is down, and I can only choose to go all the way." So in order not to conflict with his brothers, Dezhi became a monk, and Fat Huai stayed away from the Eastern Capital in order not to conflict with his brothers. ”

Dong Jingzhen frowned, "You drank too much." ”

"You're wrong, I'm more sober than ever." Zhou Muru said loudly.

Dong Jingzhen said with a straight face: "If you treat him as a brother, you should support him on the road!" ”

Zhou Muru muttered, "Don't I support it now?" Pushing Dong Jingzhen away, Zhou Muru said loudly: "How do you want me to support him?" ”

staggered away, Zhou Muru disappeared into the crowd, Dong Jingzhen was worried about the night, no longer chasing, secretly thinking that although Zhou Muru drank too much, there would be no trouble. Turning back to the mansion, he asked his cronies to prepare dozens of tight-lipped subordinates to prepare two shifts to set off, but he did not explain his intentions. I wanted to go to Master Dou several times, but I finally held back.

In the middle of the night, Dong Jingzhen ordered his subordinates to follow and went straight to Zhang's mansion. Zhang Xiu had already made preparations, and when she saw Dong Jingzhen coming, she was relieved: "General Dong believes in me, great things can be done." ”

Dong Jingzhen frowned and ordered: "Don't hurt people's lives more, Zheng Wenxiu is an official of the imperial court, we can only arrest, not kill." ”

Zhang Xiu nodded, joined Dong Jingzhen, and quietly touched the Zheng Mansion.

The moon and stars are scarce, the long street is silent, Dong Jingzhen doesn't know why, and there is uneasiness in her heart.

The crowd walked quietly at night, and they encountered several waves of patrolling soldiers on the way. But when these people saw that it was Dong and Zhang doing things, they were not suspicious. The two led the troops to the Zheng Mansion, and Dong Jingzhen informed his subordinates of the intention of this trip. Although all his subordinates were shocked, they were all Dong Jingzhen's cronies, and they still followed the general's orders. Dong Jingzhen let the soldiers disperse and choked the main roads around the Zheng Mansion to prevent Zheng Wenxiu from escaping, so he looked at Zhang Xiu and asked for his idea.

Zhang Xiu said: "Go straight to the point and catch him, if he escapes, there must be ghosts." There are two ways to get to his bedroom......" briefly explained the terrain, and outflanked Dong Jingzhen.

Dong Jingzhen nodded, ordered someone to kick open the door, and soldiers climbed over the wall, Dong and Zhang rushed in with dozens of subordinates, and some porters rubbed their sleepy eyes and asked, and they were knocked to the ground.

Dong Jingzhen walked according to the road, and quickly touched the front of Zheng Wenxiu's bedroom, he had also been here before, and he was quite familiar. Before he arrived in front of the bedroom, he saw the lights flickering, and Zheng Wenxiu shouted: "Who is it?" ”

The footsteps were loud, but no one made a sound, this kind of pressure made people's hearts pound.

Dong Jingzhen Fang went to the door, only to hear a 'bang', and a chair had flown out of the window. This trick is called striking the east and west, and I just want to divert my attention. But it still works against one or two people, and now dozens of people are pouring over, and the places with holes are being stared at, how can Zheng Wenxiu succeed?

Dong Jingzhen knew that Zheng Wenxiu's kung fu was not bad, and waited for him to come out, not wanting to hurt too much.

But after waiting for a while, there was no movement in the room. Dong Jingzhen raised his voice and said: "General Zheng Lang, you come out, I have something important to tell you." ”

After waiting for a while, before hearing a sound, Dong Jingzhen's heart sank, and he ordered: "Rush in." ”

Some of the soldiers kicked open the door, and some looked through the window, all of them were waiting for them. There was a sudden 'ping-pong' sound behind the room, some people screamed, and some people snorted. The soldier said: "General Dong, there is a back door." ”

Dong Jingzhen's heart moved, walked a few steps, stepped on the wall and went to the roof, and ran straight to the opposite side, only to see that there was a garden behind him, full of shadows and shadows, and he couldn't see it really, it seemed that there were several people fighting around one person, and shouted: "Zheng Wenxiu, if you have a clear conscience, follow me to see Master Dou." ”

He jumped down, only to hear a 'bang', a soldier's stick hit the top of the head of the man in the middle, the man made a muffled sound, took off the knife with a single knife, staggered and fled, Zhang Xiu stretched out his foot while he was confused, and the man fell to the ground. Several people around him rushed up and held him firmly.

Dong Jingzhen was a little relieved at this time, and secretly thought that the matter was not clear, as long as Zhang Xiu did not kill Zheng Wenxiu, it would be easy to say.

When he walked over quickly, the soldiers had already tied up Zheng Wenxiu. Zheng Wenxiu was still strong and did not faint, and struggled on the ground: "Zhang Xiu, do you want to rebel?" He was so angry that his voice was already fighting, and his voice was like a wolf's howl.

Dong Jingzhen slightly raised her heart of compassion, and said in a deep voice: "General Zheng Lang, someone accused you of fornicating with Li Tang." If you have a clear conscience, go with me to see Master Dou, and I will make sure you are okay. Zhang Langjiang, what do you think? ”

Zhang Xiu said: "Everything is under the orders of Lord Dong." ”

At this time, a soldier arrived in a hurry and brought a few letters: "General Dong, these are a few letters from the Zheng Mansion. A soldier stepped forward with a torch, Dong Jingzhen took a look at the firelight, and found that they were all letters related to Li Tang, and coldly raised the letter and said: "Zheng Wenxiu, what else do you have to say?" He has been worried that with just one letter, Zheng Wenxiu will be mistakenly blamed, and now it is a letter found by his own soldiers, where will there be a fake?

Zheng Wenxiu hissed: "You framed me!" Zhang Xiu...... I know you've been upset with me, and you're the one who framed me! I want to see Lord Dou! "He was struck in the face with a stick, and his blood flowed all over his face, like a demon.

Zhang Xiu sneered: "I'm still afraid that I won't be able to confront you?" General Dong, now that the culprit has been caught, why don't you go and see Lord Dou, what do you think? ”

Dong Jingzhen let go of her thoughts, "This is the best." If you want to be wronged, Lord Dou has his own conclusion! The two of them immediately made a decision, and took their own soldiers to escort Zheng Wenxiu straight to the county guard's mansion.

Along the way, Zheng Wenxiu was silent, Dong Jingzhen and Zhang Xiu seemed to be preoccupied.

When I arrived at the county guard's mansion, I found that the house was brightly lit. Dong Jingzhen was puzzled and thought that Dou Yi was old, although he was busy with official business, but at this time in the past, he had already rested, and I don't know why he hadn't rested tonight?

Zhang Xiu was surprised: "Didn't Lord Dou sleep this night?" It was reasonable for him to ask, Dong Jingzhen didn't know why, her heart palpitated, and she didn't understand what she was worried about.

When the two arrived at the front of the house, there were already guards to stop them, and the county guard mansion was different from the place next to it, and it was also guarded. Dong Jingzhen explained the intention, please see Dou Yi, the soldiers turned around, and after a while, they led everyone in. When all the soldiers arrived at the courtyard, they all stopped, and only Dong and Zhang each brought a personal soldier to escort Zheng Wenxiu inside.

When he arrived in the hall, seeing the lights dimming, Dou Yi sat behind the table and frowned, and sat down with two people, one was Lei Shimeng, and the other was Kong Shao'an!

At this moment, the hall was almost full of people in charge of Xiangyang.

Seeing everyone coming, Dou Yi asked, "General Dong, what's going on?" I heard Kong Yushi say that I saw you take the soldiers to arrest General Zheng Lang, so there is really such a thing? ”

Only then did Dong Jingzhen understand why Dou Yi was restless so late at night, it turned out that he also knew about the internal changes in Xiangyang City. Kong Shao'an probably already knew something, so he informed Dou Yi, and Dou Yi saw that there was a change in Xiangyang, so he summoned people to deal with it. immediately told the matter again, and Dong Jingzhen submitted the letter again.

Zheng Wenxiu hung his head and was silent, but his clothes were windless, and he didn't know whether he was afraid or angry. He was captured in a fierce battle, and now he is unkempt, blood is congealed, and there is desolation in the poignant, Dong Jingzhen's eyes swept over him, and he also felt a little miserable.

Dou Yi took a few looks, his face changed greatly, he slapped the table, and said angrily: "Zheng Wenxiu, do you really collude with Tang Jun to want to sacrifice Xiangyang?" ”

Zheng Wenxiu snorted coldly and did not answer.

Dou Yi said: "Right now, you still have a chance to defend yourself!" ”

Zheng Wenxiu hissed: "The destiny of heaven is in Li Tang." If you act against the sky, disaster will not be far away. He shouted in a hoarse voice, but he didn't defend himself, which was really unexpected by Dong Jingzhen. Because when Fang was arrested, Zheng Wenxiu shouted that he was wronged, but when he went to the county guard mansion to say this, did he really feel that the evidence was conclusive and there was no way to defend it?

Dou Yi smiled coldly, "Zheng Wenxiu, you can't help but be too arrogant." Confess to the same party, I can spare you from death. ”

Lei Shimeng's face suddenly changed, and he said in a low voice: "Lord Dou, those unknown cavalry ......"

Kong Shao was relieved, he already knew that something was wrong, it turned out that he and Lei Shimeng were here for different reasons. Recently, the military situation is urgent, and he can't do much as a weak scholar, but thanks to Xiao Buyi's kindness, he did his best. I couldn't sleep at night, but I saw Dong Jingzhen and Zhang Xiu leading troops to arrest Zheng Wenxiu. Kong Shao'an felt bad, and immediately came to see Dou Yi, but he didn't expect Dou Yi to sleep, Lei Shimeng was recently responsible for inspecting the movements around Xiangyang, and got the military information, saying that there were three teams of cavalry, all of which were more than 1,000 people, and when the guards of Xiyang and Nanyang did not dare to go out of the city, they went south from the north, and their whereabouts were unpredictable, and now they have arrived near Xiangyang. After Lei Shimeng knew about this, he immediately informed Dou Yi, and Kong Shaoan arrived and also knew about it.

Although the cavalry is fierce, of course they can't break the city. But if there is an internal response, of course, it is a different matter?

Dou Yi's face changed slightly: "Those unknown cavalry? Zheng Wenxiu, you colluded with Tang Bing, when are you going to sacrifice the city? ”

Zheng Wenxiu sneered and said nothing, and a person next to him said lightly: "It's now!" ”

**The hall is steep and quiet, and the chill rises.

The voice was quite unfamiliar, with a strong confidence in the indifference. The voice came from Zhang Xiu's side, Zhang Xiu was not the slightest surprised, and looked indifferent.

It was the soldier who escorted Zheng Wenxiu in to speak.

Originally, no one noticed this person, everyone's attention was attracted by Zheng Wenxiu, and no one thought that a soldier would speak at such a time.

Lei Shi stood up angrily, "How can you have room to speak here?" ”

The man smiled and said, "Not now, but if this city falls into the hands of King Tang, won't there be?" Before he finished speaking, Dong Jingzhen's crisis soared, and in the midst of the loud cheers, one fell upside down.

Blood splattered, and everyone was shocked.

After Dong Jingzhen landed, the placket was fully opened, blood was dripping, and there were blood marks on his chest. If he is one step slower, he is afraid that he will be disemboweled.

The knife is Zhang Xiu's knife!

When everyone looked at the soldiers, Zhang Xiu took out his knife without warning and slashed at Dong Jingzhen, looking like he had a deep hatred for him. Zhang Xiu's sword was useless, and the soldier Huo Ran jumped up and rushed towards Dou Yi.

Lei Shimeng knew that it was not good, and in the midst of the loud cheers, he slanted in front of Dou Yi and shouted, "Protect Lord Dou." He rushed out, had already drawn his knife, and slashed three times in a row, these three knives were fierce and tricky, and they were really the work of Lei Shimeng.

The light of the sword reflected the soldier's expressionless face, and the tip of the knife was worthy of the soldier's face. The soldier made a move, and as soon as he made a move, he hit Lei Shimeng's chest hard.

Lei Shimeng's single knife was still in mid-air, and the person had already flown out.

In mid-air, Lei Shimeng still couldn't figure out how the opponent could shoot, but he already knew that this was not a personal soldier, this was definitely a master! When a master makes a move, life and death have been decided on the first line, and his kung fu is too far from this person's!

Who is this person?

Lei Shimeng didn't stop the soldiers, but finally blocked it. The pro-soldier paused and rose into the air again, the target was still Dou Yi. The important people in Xiangyang City are here, in order to be safe, he should catch them all, and then lead the troops into the city, Lei Shimeng has been injured, there is no need to be afraid, Dong Jingzhen has Zhang Xiu to stop, and he can capture Dou Yi himself, he can give orders, open the city and let the Tang soldiers enter the city!

He was like a goshawk, and he could see Dou Yi's expression, and that person's heart was slightly cold.

Dou Yi is a Wenchen, Kong Shaoan is a Wenchen, these people don't know kung fu, and they are caught. But why did he rush over and have a feeling of palpitations?

Suddenly found that something was wrong, Kong Shaoan was very flustered, but Dou Yi was too calm.

Such a calm person is usually not a prey, but a hunter!

When the man thought of this, his eyes flickered, only paying attention to Dou Yi's every move. He relied on his martial arts and was absolutely confident in subduing Dou Yi.

Dou Yi's hands didn't move, but his feet were hidden under the case. The table had heavy curtains that covered his legs! He seemed to be shaken by his body, or just a little on his tiptoes, and the soldier knew that something was wrong, and suddenly reached out and took out two semicircular boards, which were already buckled into a shield. Shrinking back, he tried his best to hide behind his shield.

The man was very alert, and when he took out his shield, the curtain in front of the table was windless, and then there was a 'buzz' sound, and I don't know how many crossbow arrows were fired.

The bolts were either straight or diagonal, and they flew in different directions, covering the man in all directions.

If a soldier does not have a shield, he will surely die. Even if he had a shield, he was powerless to advance again, the iron arrow broke through the air, sharp and powerful, at that moment, I don't know how many hit the shield, the man was frustrated in the air, and he actually flew out upside down with his strength. He didn't dare to step forward again, because he knew that this was a chain crossbow, and it was definitely not a round of things!

Li Jing's chain crossbow!

But why is Li Jing's serial crossbow under Dou Yi's table, and Li Jing is here?

He retreated sharply, and the air turned sharply, and he was already rushing towards Dong Jingzhen. When he pounced on Dou Yi just now, Kong Shaoan was stunned on the spot, Lei Shimeng was seriously injured, Zhang Xiu and Dong Jingzhen met opponents, and it was difficult to distinguish between them. He had already made a decision at this moment, first kill Dong Jingzhen, then kill Lei Shimeng, and then wait for the opportunity to control Dou Yi.

Dong Jingzhen retired.

He knew at a glance that he was no match for that man. Lei Shimeng was on par with him, but he was knocked away with just one move, and if he wanted to live, he could only retreat.

He retreated quickly, and the soldiers came faster, and the shield in his hand popped out with a sharp edge, slashing Dong Jingzhen's neck. Dong Jingzhen stopped with a single knife, broke with a single knife, and felt a great chill in his heart, and when he was about to close his eyes and wait for death, a cold wind blew from the back of his neck.

There was a loud 'dang', and sparks flew everywhere.

A little spear, stabbed in the middle of the shield! The shield is torn apart!

The soldier Da Rin only felt a strong force coming from the tip of the spear, shattering the shield, numbing his arm, and hurting his heart, lungs, liver and spleen.

This shot is so powerful that it is so powerful!

The soldier retreated with strength, but he couldn't retreat from the mixed iron spear, and the spear was stretched out again, and it had pierced the soldier's chest for a few points, but the soldier had retreated to Zheng Wenxiu's side. He can't afford not to retreat, if he takes a step slower, he will be pierced through the chest by an iron spear, but how long can he retreat?

Everyone held their breath, their blood was swelling, and they almost drank it.

It was Li Jing who shot out, Li Jing shot out, and not only saved Dong Jingzhen, but also broke the soldier's shield and stabbed the master Li Tang, who had superb martial arts.

General Li has arrived in Xiangyang!

、、、 Ming said that the duel between the two lees!!
