Wang Xing stood on the west gate tower of Jinxiang, a little dizzy.

The sun had just risen, shining from the east, shining golden light on the countless flags, countless sets of armor, and countless blades fluttering outside the west gate. In this military formation in full swing, a handsome flag is fluttering high.

On the handsome flag outside the west gate, the word "king" is written. Wang Xing just came from the South Gate Tower, and the scene there was just as spectacular. The handsome flag is written "Lee". The defenders of each city came to report, the east gate is "Hou", the north gate is "Li", and each side is a soldier and horse that cannot be seen at a glance.

"It's really here, I'm determined to win!"

Wang Xing's scalp was numb and crispy, and a mouthful of cold air drilled straight into his chest. Li Yu, Li Dingjin, Wang Zhixing, and Hou Weiqing each attacked one side, which side of this formation is his mother's main attack.

"Three thousand men were left in the city as reserves. All the men in the city who were between fifteen and fifty and not under sixty were marched to the city for defense according to the formation of the city. Those who dare to disobey will kill the whole family; If there is a slack in the team, kill the whole team. In addition, all the old houses in the castle are demolished and stone and wood are prepared! ”

The scalp is numb, but it did not affect Wang Xing's order at all. The houses outside the city near the city walls have long been demolished, and now it is the turn of the inhabitants of the city.

As one order after another was carried out, the howls in the city began to clamor. Although when Raff demolished the house, there were tempting voices such as "compensation" and "reward" from the public, but who believes it?

Everyone saw that the men of their families were taken away, the women were taken away, and their ancestral homes were destroyed. But who has seen the so-called compensation?

Compared with the hustle and bustle of the city, the outside of the city can only be described in one word: "quiet".

"It's so fucking quiet!"

Every Ziqing soldier in the city was chattering in his heart, and his heart was pounding. Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses surrounded the city in a black and oppressive manner, but one by one they were like mud tires, not moving, there was no sound at all, it was too terrifying. Standing on the city, you can clearly hear the sound of the wind blowing through the military formation, and even the "chirping" of sparrows, and on the other hand, there are seemingly endless cries and begs for mercy. The contrast is too great, which makes the Ziqing officers and soldiers in the city feel bottomless.

"I'm afraid Wang Xing himself doesn't believe that he can hold it, so he made such a big move, right?"

Li Yu took a breath of heat and said lightly. The city has not yet begun to scold, and the city has begun to scold. The sound was extraordinarily loud and unusually empty in the empty air.

Ding Zhuang, one team after another, was escorted to the city tower. Li Yu glanced at it, sighed and said:

"Wang Xing, this stupid thing, if he doesn't force the people, he can still hold on for a while, and if he forces the people, he is afraid that he won't even be able to pass the middle of the day."

Li Yu raised his arm, and the Chinese officer saw the horsewhip that Li Yu was holding in his hand.

"Put! Collated and published on ap."

The sound of shaking mountains sounded from all directions in Jinxiang. The general assault of the official army on Jinxiang began.

As Li Yu expected, in less than half a day, the official army pulled out Jinxiang. Wang Zhixing beheaded Wang Xing, the guard general of Jinxiang Township. The reason why Jinxiang was quickly captured was that the people in the city were in chaos in the face of the large-scale attack of the official army, and they didn't know how to raise their swords and guns, and they didn't know how to move. The officers and troops were surrounded on all sides, all of them were onslaught, the Ziqing army was tired of coping, and the people were at a loss, and when the officers and troops were about to go to the city, they turned around and ran, which affected the defense of the defenders. Wang Xingwan had no choice but to retreat to the inner city, but he didn't want the defenders of the inner city to mutiny. Wang Xing had no choice but to order the soldiers to set fire everywhere to create chaos and break through, but Wang Zhixing, who was the first to break through the city gate, was caught and slashed under the horse.

If you want a group of people who have never been in battle to become veterans of a hundred battles in an instant, do you dream?

On the one hand, Li Yu sent troops to exterminate the remnants of the army, and on the other hand, he sent people to extinguish the fire. After the war subsided, he issued a list of Anmin and sent people to report to the Ziqing camp. Of course, the first credit is Wang Zhixing.

After conquering Jinxiang, there was no time to rest, Li Yu left Hu Wenzhong, the general of the Wuning Army, to stay in Jinxiang, and personally led the army eastward, and the troops were divided into two routes, one route was Li Dingjin to lead the army and the 52nd Army, and cooperate with the Xuanwu Army to coerce Yunzhou; All the way, the 55th and 56th armies of the Wuning Army were formed, led by themselves, and the troops were directed at Yanzhou, an important town in southern Lunan. When the thick arrows were marked on the map, even a fool could see that Li Yu's strategic intention was extremely obvious, which was to outflank Yunzhou from the east and complete the encirclement on all sides. Li Yu is famous, and the Ziqing army is invincible along the way.

Jinxiang is an important town in southwest Shandong, and Li Yu is a general of the official army, so such important news was quickly reported to Yunzhou. However, Li Shidao, the marshal of Yunzhou, could not see the battle report. When he was assassinated that night, Li Shidao experienced great joy and sorrow, excessive fright, excessive joy, and fell ill. In the past few days, in order to keep Marshal Li Shidao in a good mood and help the recovery of the sick body, Wei decided that all bad news should not be reported to Li Shidao.

Therefore, what Li Shidao has seen every day in the past few days are the smiling faces of Wei, Yuan, Pu, Li Wenhui, Lin Ying, and Wang Zaisheng, and all he hears is good news. For example, the inventory of foreign merchants has made a lot of income, and many young people have been arrested, such as a group of dead soldiers from the sea, and they will be driven to Yunzhou in a few days, for example, Liu Wu has recovered Yanggu, beheaded thousands, and beat the Su mob to Laizhou and Qizhou, such as defeating the Xuanwu Army and the Wuning Army on the front line in a row, and for example, Guo Rihu, who the marshal hated to see, obediently left Yunzhou to Yanzhou to take office, and when he left, it was really embarrassing.

After Guo Rihu left Yunzhou City, he glanced back and said:

"I don't know what kind of situation it will be like next time I come back."

This sentence is for himself, and it is also for Li Yu, who is hiding in the box in the car. Of course, Guo Rihu didn't know that it was the current Tang Emperor who was hiding in his car, otherwise he was afraid that he would not be able to walk out of Yunzhou City calmly.

The matter of sending Li Yu out of Yunzhou is very difficult to say, but in retrospect, whether it is Duan Wenchang or Wu Ciyou, they all feel that it is actually very simple, and the only trouble is how to send Li Yu to Guo Rihu's mansion without knowing it. Because of his distrust of Guo Rihu, Li Shidao gave Guo Rihu an eyeliner outside and inside the house. By the way, that night, Wang Wu ordered the eyeliner of the acupoint in the cold wind for half a night before he came back to life, but his mind was still sober after the wind and cold, and he found out in time the fact that his waist card was stolen, in order to save his life, he concealed his coma and loss of life, and then asked for sick leave, which also made the eyeliner of the back door change the next day. But this place is like typhoid fever, and when the person woke up, he found that he was also infected with the wind cold, and - the waist card was also lost!

The sage was on the side, and this benevolent brother was naturally not an elm head, and the next morning, he also went back to the government to take leave. This guy had no idea that if he could be a little more vigilant last night, he would be able to see a rare big drama.

At this time, in Gao Mu's old house, Luo Qing took two waist cards and said to Duan Wenchang, who was worried about how to get out:

"Mr. Duan, we have this!"

It's really a loss to this little Luo Qing, the other guards are easy to handle, but Duan Wenchang doesn't know how to get out of the city gate. The city gate is reserved for ordinary people to walk, and the guards who can come here with Li Yu are not ordinary people, and going to the city gate is just a forced choice for them, such as the daylight, and for example, in Chang'an, where there are more people who have the ability not to go through the city gate. Now in Yunzhou, there are not so many restrictions, just chic. Last night, Wang Wu had already gone out of the city with ten guards, ready to meet outside the city. Tonight, Wu Ciyou and the rest of them are about to leave the city, so Duan Wenchang's affairs are very troublesome, Wu Ciyou has already found a few hemp ropes, and is ready to tie Duan Wenchang to his body and take him out. But what happened last night made him very worried.

Last night, it was still after the end of the hour, it was still the bleak and hazy moonlight, the silver-white ground, and there were still four figures, breaking through the road intersection, avoiding patrols and husbands, the only difference was that Duan Wenchang was replaced by Li Yu. Of course, with what happened last night, they certainly don't have to drill through the waterway door. Outside the wall, Wu Ciyou swaggered past the outer wall of the backyard of Guo's mansion, and looked up at the courtyard wall, as if he was a thief who wanted to climb over the wall, which made the eyeliner who was squatting on the ground suddenly come to his senses, quietly walked up, patted Wu Ciyou's shoulder who pretended not to notice, and said:

"Little thief, grandpa has been waiting for you for a long time!"

But before he finished speaking, the man was numb and collapsed. Wang Wu in the back dragged this guy to the shadow of the wall, and Xiao Luo Qing naturally put his hand into the arms of this guy again, this time not only touched the waist card, but also touched a pot of wine. And Wu Ciyou carried Li Yu on his back, jumped onto the courtyard wall, and then sent Li Yu to Guo Ri's house - on this day, Guo Rihu was very lively in front of and behind the door, not only Li Shidao's people stared, but also Wu Ciyou sent people stared. It is about Li Xu, Wu Ciyou can't believe anyone for no reason, but Li Yu himself is very generous and does not doubt Guo Rihu at all. In fact, there is no doubt that it is fake, but Li Yu can only bet on this bet now. Sure enough, I didn't find anything abnormal in Guo Mansion that day - when I arrived at Guo Rihu, Guo Rihu had already turned off the lights and was sitting in front of the bed waiting. Hearing Wu Ciyou's code, he hurriedly opened the door and let the two in. In order to welcome people tonight, Guo Rihu sent his wife to sleep in another courtyard.

Wu Ciyou put down Li Chan and hugged his fist to Guo Rihu and said:

"Master Guo, this is Mr. Huang. Mr. Huang's safety is up to you!"

Guo Rihu naturally agreed, reassuring Wu Ciyou. Guo Rihu looked over and saw that Mr. Huang's face was a little haggard, but his spirit was very good, and he was looking at him with a smile. Guo Rihu saw that this Mr. Huang was standing there with his hands in his hands, and he didn't take the initiative to salute, thinking that the status of Mr. Huang, who could make Duan Wenchang run, was not low, and it was possible to make a mistake for the prince and the prince, so he took the initiative to do it, and he didn't say "long admiration" in his mouth, but said "Mr. Huang is good". At this time, Li Yu naturally couldn't take too much candy, and replied to Guo Rihu with a half-salute, saying:

"Hello Mr. Guo."

This temporarily put aside the status of the two. Wu Ciyou gave a salute to Li Yu, his nose suddenly became a little sour, and he said:

"Master, take care, the little one will go first."

Li Yu knew that he was worried about himself, his heart was warm, and he nodded, and Wu Ciyou withdrew and left. This small detail has remained in Li Yu's memory since then, and it has become Wu Ciyou's greatest affection for gradually rising to the top as a low-level guard.

After Wu Ciyou left, Li Yu was still staring at the door, that kind of temperament really couldn't be pretended. Guo Rihu didn't know what to say, so he lit up the red charcoal fire and asked:

"Mr. Huang, have you eaten?"

This greeting with Chinese characteristics made Li Yu smile slightly. In the middle of the night, the light in Guo Rihu's room suddenly turned on, and the cook was called up and ordered to cook a few dishes, scald a pot of wine, and send it to the old man's room. The cook was accustomed to Guo Rihu's habit of ordering food in the middle of the night, and muttered:

"These people who read books, even if they are unlucky, they will not stop."

But maybe he knew that Guo Rihu was going to leave Yunzhou tomorrow, and the chef was very careful about his dishes tonight. scalded a pot of wine, put it in a suitcase, and sent it to Guo Ri's house.

The emperor has been in office for a long time, and he will inevitably get some stinky problems, such as Li Yu, staring at a few delicate side dishes, his stomach and intestines are groaning, but he refuses to move the chopsticks, which makes Guo Rihu unhappy, stretching out the chopsticks and sandwiching a little bit of each dish, Li Yu can enjoy it with confidence. However, when Guo Rihu poured him wine, Li Yu said again:

"In the future, don't use copper kettles for wine at home, copper is heavy gold, and people can't afford it."

Copper has been a monetary metal for generations, and people, especially wealthy families, are proud to store more copper utensils, and they have been banned repeatedly. When Guo Rihu went to Chang'an in the autumn, he used bronze utensils in many banquets, and when he heard Li Yu say this, Guo Rihu was stunned, thinking that he had something else to do, and said:

"In ancient times, copper was called gold, but it was a precious vessel, and people naturally couldn't afford it. There are too many ordinary people like Guo in the world, and they are always cheesy. ”

Li Chen's original intention was to tell him that copper is a heavy metal, and using copper utensils to make tableware is harmful to the human body, because this theory is more difficult for people in this era to accept, so he said this, but he didn't think of this layer, so he put down his chopsticks and smiled:

"Mr. Guo is too careful. It means that although bronze is a precious object, it is harmful to the body when used. Nothing else. What Mr. Guo means is, how much do you use bronzeware as tableware now? ”

This kind of questioning that does not eat the fireworks of the world suddenly made Guo Rihu believe that this Mr. Huang was from a good background and had a heart. However, after getting Guo Rihu's affirmative answer, Li Yu was guided by Guo Rihu to another question, and he didn't react until Guo Rihu pushed him. After eating some vegetables and vegetables, Li Yu rested. In order to serve Li Yu well, Guo Rihu let Li Yu sleep on his couch, and sat in front of the brazier all night with a big coat. This made Wu Ciyou, who sent Wang Wu and them out of the city and came back, and was lifting a tile on the roof to look down, put his heart down. However, it was not until the first rooster crowed that Wu Ciyou left. On the way back, Wu Ciyou saw a wonderful scene of high-ranking people flying in the sky. We'll get to that later.

In the end, he changed the bed, and the next morning, Li Yu opened his eyes, and at this time, Guo Rihu was sleeping on the small couch outside covered with a futon wrapped in a large futon. The night was cold, Guo Rihu had a worry again, and he slept obviously badly, and when he heard the sound of Li Yu getting up, Guo Rihu also got up, and he spoke with a thick nasal voice. After instructing the maid to bring noodle soup and preparing breakfast in the kitchen, Guo Rihu drove all the people outside the house and invited Li Yu to clean the noodles and eat. After becoming the emperor, he has always sat and stood by himself, eating and watching by himself, Li Yu really did not politely sweep all the breakfast, and Guo Rihu had to order someone to send another one. Guo Fu later recalled Guo Rihu's behavior on this day, and they all said that the old man loved cleanliness very much that day, and his appetite was also very good, and he had to have double breakfast. Of course, this point was also written in the report to Li Shidao, and it will be given to Li Shidao as a joke. Li Shidao really smiled when he heard this, leaned on the bed, and said:

"This Guo Rihu, it's so solemn to go to other states to make a stabbing history, does he think I will invite him back?"

Of course, Guo Rihu didn't think so, he wished he was far away from Yunzhou. To paraphrase the current popular saying, it is to cherish life and stay away from Master Li. When he was full of food and drink, Guo Rihu pointed to a box and said to Li:

"Mr. Huang, I have wronged you, what will happen if you rest there first? I've got air holes up and down the sides of the box. ”

Look at this thought, what else can Li Yu say? Although the escape is not romantic, it is always better to go out. Fortunately, most of the things at that time were big and simple, and it was not aggrieved to sleep in the box, and the quilts inside were also well laid. When Li Yu lay down, Guo Rihu covered him with a bed quilt, put a few wooden supports on the quilt, put some sundries on it, and closed the box. The door opened, and two men were called, and they carried the box to the carriage.

In the end, it was an illegal business, and Guo Rihu, who thought that going out of the city would have some twists and turns, was worried. Unexpectedly, Li Shidao was sick, and no one cared about him, an unwilling judge, and he went out of Yunzhou all the way without incident. Looking back at Yunzhou, Guo Rihu said in a thick nasal voice:

"I don't know what kind of situation it will be like next time I come back."

This sentence is for himself, and it is also for Li Yu, who is hiding in the box in the car. However, what Li Yu is concerned about is what kind of situation will it be in Chang'an City now?
