At the head of Thang Long City, the soldiers guarding the city saw the chaos under the city, and the flames were everywhere, thinking that the Ruan army was preparing to attack the city at night and was about to attack downward, but they heard someone shouting under the city, "Hurry up and put down the rope, Zheng Tie, the second son of the Zheng family, is here!" ”

The general guarding the head of the city was surnamed Hu, and when he looked down, it was really the second son Zheng Tie in the firelight, and he was overjoyed, "It turned out to be the second son, you are back, Lord Zheng was injured a few days ago, and now the people are panicking!" ”

Zheng Tie shouted, "What are you talking about, hurry up and put down the rope!" ”

General Hu, surnamed Hu, agreed, and quickly found a few ropes, and Luo Hu followed Zheng Tie with a hundred soldiers to climb to the top of the city.

Luo Hu shouted to Li Twelve at the head of the city, "Uncle Twelve, you guys go quickly!" I see torches converging here in the distance, and I think the Ruan army is going to surround you! Something to contact with the flag. ”

Seeing that Luo Hu and the others had safely climbed to the top of the city, Li Twelve turned his horse's head and rushed out with seven thousand cavalry.

The Ruan army did not know the situation in the dark night, and did not chase after them, but returned to the camp separately.

&nb——sp; But it was said that Luo Hu had ascended to the top of the city, and General Hu asked Zheng Tie, "Second son, who are these people?" ”

Zheng Tie replied, "These people are the pioneers who rescued us, you didn't see it, the people outside the city are the Ming army who rescued us, they are the vanguard, and the army will arrive soon!" ”

"That's great, if you come back later, I'm afraid something will change in the city!" General Hu is a close confidant of Lord Zheng, and the soldiers who defend the entire Thang Long City are all cronies of Lord Zheng, otherwise, it is not certain that this place cannot be defended now.

"Has there been a change? What's going on? Zheng Tie asked. Luo Hu was also listening, what he was most afraid of defending the city was a traitor. Joining forces inside and outside is the most dangerous thing.

"Actually, there is no evidence for this, it's just rumors." Then General Hu began to speak.

It turned out that the Nguyen army was powerful. Looking out from Thang Long City, it was densely packed with people. However, there were only tens of thousands of soldiers in Thang Long City, and most of the rest of the city were guarded by people drawn from the city. Fortunately, the city of Thang Long City is strong, and it can still be defended for the time being. But in the face of the menacing Ruan army, how long can this Thang Long City be defended? Some ministers were a little shaken in their hearts.

And in the first few days, because of the fierce attack of the Ruan army, Lord Zheng also commanded the counterattack at the head of the city. As a result, he was shot in the chest by a stray arrow, and although it was not fatal, the injuries were unknown. This time. There was a panic in Thang Long City. The people are also panicking, the soldiers are also panicking, and the generals and officials are also panicking, but it is not that Lord Zheng has much ability, which fulfills the sentence 'A snake cannot do without a head, and a bird does not fly without wings.' People come to vote for the Lord. Birds come to the forest. 'A family, a country, an army, if there is no leader in charge, it will be a mess!

Although Zheng Zhu did not die, the impact was too great.

The most affected is Zuo Situ Fan Changyi. Fan Changyi was originally Zheng Zhu's deputy, and he also belonged to the number two person. When Lord Zheng was proud, this Fan Changyi was quite diligent. But Master Zheng was injured, and Fan Changyi made his own little calculations.

Although Lord Zheng had already sent Zheng Tie to ask for help, it didn't take long for the Later Dynasty to fight with the Ming army. It is not certain whether the Ming army can come. Besides, even if you can come. Will you be able to rescue Thang Long City? Looking at the fierce Ruan army outside the city, Fan Changyi thought to himself, instead of being killed by the Ruan army, it is better to surrender!

So, one night, one of Fan Changyi's housekeepers went up to the city, looked around to see if there was anyone, and suddenly threw something out of the city. But when the soldiers who defended the city saw it, they took him prisoner. The general guarding that section of the city wall was about to be interrogated, and Fan Changyi appeared.

Fan Changyi didn't wait for the general guarding the city to interrogate, he asked the housekeeper a few words, and as he spoke, he took out a knife and killed the housekeeper.

It's just that the housekeeper was not killed for a while, and said a sentence without a beginning or an end, "Extinguish!" And he died.

This incident spread all over the city, and people were even more panicked.

"What should I do?" Zheng Tie is not a general, he asked Luo Hu.

Luo Hu thought for a while, "Go see Lord Zheng first, and then talk!" ”

So, General Hu instructed the deputy general to guard the city, and Luo Hu and Zheng Tie went to see Lord Zheng.

Zheng Zhu is now lying on the bed, listening to Zheng Tie's introduction that Luo Hu is the pioneer of the Ming Dynasty, struggling to sit up.

Luo Hu hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and comforted, "Please recuperate, you don't have to worry about defense, I will help Zheng Tie defend Shenglong City." ”

Seeing that Luo Hu was young, Zheng Tie was a little unconvinced, so Zheng Tie explained, "When the Ming army fought with Zheng Mo in Gaoping, one of the people who defeated the war elephant was this Luo Hu Luo general. ”

"Oh." Zheng Zhu was relieved at this time, but when Zheng Mo was mentioned, Zheng Zhu's face changed, and his heart was not good.

Seeing this, Luo Hu smiled, "Now Zheng Mo is already a subordinate of our Tiger Master General Li, and in the near future, he will also come to the rescue with our General Li Guo." ”

"What? Zheng Mo is not dead? Lord Zheng was surprised.

Luo Hu smiled and nodded.

Lord Zheng was happy now.

Because of the urgency of the military situation, Luo Hu chatted with Zheng Zhu about Zuo Situ Fan Changyi's suspicion of defecting to the enemy. It is said that during this time, Fan Changyi had a close relationship with a general guarding the south gate.

What to do?

Luo Hu's meaning is to resolutely kill Fan Changyi, this is a very moment, if you don't use thunderbolts, you can't lift your spirits. The southern city guard did not have a real basis to surrender to the enemy, so he could only be appeased, because he wanted to surrender to the enemy, and he would have opened the city gate a long time ago.

So, Luo Hu asked Zheng Tie to send General Hu to send an order, and the generals and various officials guarding the city called Zheng Mansion for a meeting.

When the officials saw the emergency call, they didn't know what was going on, and they all rushed over, all wanting to know the latest news about the battle situation, and only Fan Changyi came the latest.

Zheng Tie stepped forward and bowed to Fan Changyi, "Fan Situ!" ”

Fan Changyi was stunned and said in surprise, "Oh, second son, are you back?" ”

Luo Hu heard Zheng Tie shout Fan Situ, pulled out his knife, and chopped off Fan Changyi's head with one sword.

Fan Changyi's entourage wanted to resist, but Luo Hu's men slashed with a big knife and killed all these individuals!

The officials were shocked, and they all looked vigilant.

Zheng Tie shouted, "Don't panic, kill Fan Changyi, because he is a spy and has nothing to do with others!" ”

After that, Zheng Tie pushed Luo Hu to the middle seat and sat down, and said, "This is General Luo Hu of the Ming Dynasty, and the reinforcements of the Ming Dynasty will arrive soon!" Among them, my brother Zheng Mian will be lenient to the Ming Dynasty and will follow the Ming army to rescue us! ”

Luo Hu had no intention of sitting in the middle, but this was discussed by Zheng Zhu, Zheng Tie, General Hu and others, so Luo Hu did not shirk.

Luo Hu waved his hand and stopped the commotion below, "Houli Dynasty is a vassal state of Huaxia, and if there is trouble in Houli, we will definitely come to help!" This time, I came first to tell everyone, don't panic, hold on, the army will be there soon! ”

Only then did everyone look relieved, and an official asked, "Now that the Nguyen Dynasty is powerful, I don't know how many reinforcements are coming?" ”

Luo Hu said proudly, "Not much, 500,000!" (To be continued......)
