Chapter 374: Good Fellows (Part II)

"They're about to do it, and we're still bound by the covenant?" Lu Gong's eyes widened and said, "Fourth brother, when did you become so pedantic?!" ”

"I'm not pedantic, I have to be cautious." Lu Gongru pointed to the opposite side and said: "Their current identity is to come to congratulate the official family on his birthday, and the two countries are at war and have not killed the envoys, not to mention whether they are here to steal the city!" How can you say kill and kill! ”souDU.org

"You have to wait for the knife to be on your neck before you believe it!"

Hearing them arguing there, Chen Ke was a little distracted, it turned out that he thought of Murong Bo and Xiao Yuanshan from Li Xiangyang and Walter...... In Jin Daxia's novel, Murong Fu and his father saw that Song Liao was on good terms, the war was not prosperous, and there was no opportunity to take advantage of the ambition of Fuyan, and he heard that Xiao Yuanshan, the head of the Liao pro-army, went to his father-in-law's house in Wuzhou of the Great Song Dynasty to pay homage to his birthday on the eighth day of September, so he went to Shaolin Temple to report that the Liao State had sent a master to attack Shaolin Temple on the Double Ninth Festival and seize the martial arts classics.

As a result, the Central Plains did a stupid roe deer to believe it, and on the eighth day of the ninth lunar month, they set up an ambush at Yanmen Pass, and fought a bloody battle with Xiao Yuanshan's family, which finally became a big tragedy.

Now Yelu Yixin and Xiao Feng ...... Well, this Lord Xiao doesn't have a master father named Xiao Yuanshan...... Although they came with the leather room army, the people of the Liao country were not afraid of death to this extent? The princes of all the dignified countries took the lead in carrying out this kind of life-and-death mission?

With Chen Ke's understanding of the Liao people, it seems that it is not enough, not to mention that Yelu Yixin is favored by his flattery, and it seems that he has never led troops in person.

The most critical point is, if the two countries go to war, is the Great Song ready? Apparently not at all......

I saw that he was silent all the time. Lu Gongshu finally couldn't help but say, "Zhong Fang, you have something to say." ”

"I support Zhiqing's opinion." Chen Ke replied to his senses: "You can't do it lightly, let's strengthen our vigilance first." ”

"How can you?" Seeing that the two who could make up their minds were in denial, Lu Gong knew that he couldn't change it, so he snorted angrily: "You two are going to become sinners!" ”

"If you don't become a sinner, we'll talk about it when the time comes," Chen Ke said calmly: "It's the right thing to do now." When the cavalry entered the city, the power was greatly reduced, and the 50,000 troops in Xiongzhou City were on guard. Can you still be turned against the sky by just 2,000 Khitan soldiers? ”

"Beware of spies." Zeng Bu, who had not spoken, added: "It is likely that a large number of spies have already infiltrated the city, and it will be dangerous to either take them in or create chaos when the time comes." ”

"Hmm." Lu Gongru nodded and said, "I'll go and arrange it!" He hugged his fists and said, "In case there is really a war overnight, it is too dangerous here, please follow me back to the yaya for a while." "The post house in Xiongzhou is divided into left and right with a courtyard wall, the courtyard on the left is where the officials of the Song Dynasty lived, and the right is where the Liao envoys stayed.

"It doesn't matter. Five hundred handfuls of Japanese soldiers are not so easy to eat. Chen Ke shook his head and said: "We are here to stare at the wind and grass, if the Liao people have any abnormal movement and send red fireworks to you, just do it!" ”

"This ......" Lu Gongru felt that this idea was good, but he was afraid that he would break the Qincha and walk around without eating.

"I don't want my mother-in-law anymore, it's decided." This is also the bottom limit that Lu Gongshu can accept, this second generation of officials who are idle in Beijing has become so aggressive when he encounters a crisis.

"Well, take care!" There was no time to grind, so Lu Gong clasped his fists and saluted, and hurriedly went to arrange defense.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's night, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and it's a good time to kill people and set fires.

At this time in the past, Xiongzhou City had fallen into a deep sleep, but today it was more noisy than daytime. The lights on the city were bright, and the officers and soldiers were nervously debugging all kinds of equipment to defend the city, while the men carried stacks of arrows and barrels of oil to the head of the city. Bring the vegetable oil to a boil......

Tens of thousands of torches were lit in the city, and with the cooperation of the state officials, the soldiers of the forbidden army blocked the streets and searched every house. Arrest all suspicious elements......

On the four streets leading to the post house, the people are stepping up to dig deep ditches, behind them, there are thousands of bed crossbows, ambush crossbows, enemy crossbows, eight bows and crossbows, and eight friends, the Song army soldiers are in strict formation, as long as there are cavalry in the post house to rush out, they will be shot by them hedgehogs.

It's no wonder that Lu Gongru will be like a great enemy, because he has just received an urgent report that the Liao army has moved south, and it is expected that the border will be crossed on the third watch, and the army will be in Xiongzhou on the fourth watch!

It was his duty to send an urgent report to the Daimyo Prefecture on the one hand, and to take all necessary measures on the other, which was the duty of the Governor of Xiongzhou!

In the entire Xiongzhou city, the only dark and quiet place is the post house where the Song and Liao Qincha live.

But if you are in the middle of it, you will know that the atmosphere inside is ten times more tense than outside!

In the courtyard to the west, 500 soldiers who supported the Japanese army were all on the roof, the bright blades had been blackened with ink, and the crossbows were all wound.

Chen Ke was dressed in black, sitting cross-legged on the top of the highest roof, staring at the Liaoren Courtyard, he had been practicing his internal skills all these years, and he could also see things in the dark like the Xuanyu monk, but he couldn't see it so clearly. I saw that in the courtyard to the east, there was also a fierce battle. The roof was full of Khitan archers, and the war horses in the backyard were also pulled out...... If Lu Gongzhu sees this scene, he will definitely shout, the Liao people are going to do it!

In fact, Chen Ke also thought so, but he was cautious by nature, so he asked the commander of the Japanese army to find him, and whispered to him the arrangement of the Liao people, so that even if he wanted to fight, he could know himself and his opponent.

Who knew that the commander of the Japanese army listened to it, but whispered: "The Liao people are a little strange, they are in a defensive formation. ”

"Oh?" Chen Ke frowned, dispelling the idea of signaling.

Lu Gongzhu climbed to the other side of him and whispered: "Zhiqing said that the army of Liao has approached the border, and he no longer insists on his opinion, what about you?" ”

Chen Ke shook his head and said softly, "Wait a little longer." ”

"Wait? It's a little late to do it now. Lu Gong's eyes widened and said: "When the Liao people attack the city, this place has not been taken, the army's heart is shaken, you and I will not be redeemed!" ”

Chen Ke was silent, and said in his heart, so to speak, Yelu Yixin They plan to launch it after the army attacks the city, which is also said in the past.

Just when he also began to waver, suddenly a guard hurriedly climbed up and reported in a low voice: "Xiao Feng asks to see your lord!" ”

"Oh? Well done. Chen Ke nodded and said, "Let him sit in the flower hall for a while, and the official will arrive later." ”

"This guy is here to paralyze us!" Lu Gongzhu didn't want to waste any more time.

"I'll talk about it when I see him." Chen Ke said that he didn't climb the ladder, and jumped off the ground lightly.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the flower hall, Xiao Feng was restless, they were already in a hurry, and the Song people noticed it as soon as there was a change. Soon, the surrounding roads were dug into the pits, and the western courtyard was full of ambushes...... The news reached him and Jerryshin.

Both of them were stunned, could it be that the Song people knew who was hiding in their mission, and they wanted to capture them at the cost of breaking the treaty and starting a war?

"It must be like this......" Yelu Yixin was frightened, and quickly ordered his men to prepare to cover the man and rush out.

"Where can you rush?" Xiao Feng stopped him and said: "The four gates of Xiongzhou City are closed, and the army of 50,000 is really unfavorable to us, it is not to be caught in the urn...... That's so-so! ”

"Alas......" Yelu Yixin thought about it, and said deflatedly: "Then what should I do? ”

"Rather than sit here and wait." Xiao Feng thought about it, gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't I go and talk to Master Chen, I have to let him know the consequences of killing us!" ”

"Hmm." Yelu Yixin nodded and said, "Go ahead!" ”

Xiao Feng waited for the tea, and finally saw Chen Ke show up.

"Master Chen!" Xiao Feng didn't care about the salute, so he asked: "We are here to congratulate the emperor of your country on his birthday, what do you want to set up a net of heaven and earth?!" ”

"Lord Xiao," Chen Ke had already changed into civilian clothes, his face was not very good-looking, and he said coldly: "What do you want to do when your country's 100,000 leather room army goes south?" ”

"The leather room army is stationed in Luanhe, naturally because of the location of the bowl of His Majesty the Emperor." Xiao Feng said as a matter of course: "Could it be that my Emperor Daliao is moving within his own country, and he still has to report to your country?" ”

"If you can see the light, why don't you move during the day, and go south as soon as the sky is dark," Chen Ke gritted his teeth and said: "I'm afraid that now that the border has passed, there will be another hour, and the troops will come to the city!" ”

"How is that possible?" Xiao Feng felt as if he had been pricked by a needle, and bounced up and said, "Bachelor Chen is joking, right?" ”

"Am I joking about this kind of thing?" Chen Ke said with a cold face: "The city has seen the beacon fire!" ”

"How is that possible? No way! Xiao Feng muttered, "How could the Leather Room Army go south? ”

"Why can't the Leather Room Army go south?" Chen Ke asked casually.

"Because no one can mobilize them......" After Xiao Feng finished speaking, he realized that he had missed his mouth, and hurriedly changed his words: "It is impossible for them to enter the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, let alone attack Xiongzhou City!" ”

"What if we attack?"

"With us, they dare!" Xiao Feng said categorically.

"Just by His Royal Highness King Zhao?"

"No......" Xiao Feng is also an old man, but tonight he was in great fear, and he was almost exposed by Chen Ke, "In short, it must be like this, otherwise you will kill us!" ”

"Master Xiao, are you hiding something from me?" Chen Ke said coldly.

"Nope." Xiao Feng shook his head and said.

"If you don't say it, then I'll have to guess." Chen Ke stood up and paced with his hands in his hands: "I originally guessed that you were going to defect to the Great Song Dynasty, but now that you look at it, it is obvious that you are making yourself amorous." As he spoke, he stared at Xiao Feng tightly, and said word by word: "Then there is only one possibility, that is, there is a big man in the white dragon fish suit in your mission!" ”

Xiao Feng's jaw fell directly to the ground......
