"Siege ......" Huang Xia immediately looked at Duan Zhong with a foolish expression, raised his chin and asked, "Do you believe it?" ”

Duan Zhong was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "If you believe it, your subordinates will believe it, if you don't believe it, you will ......."

Before he could finish speaking, Huang Xia had already slapped him, and poor Duan Zhong, a strong man with a tall horse and a tiger's back, was directly slapped to the ground, and suddenly he felt as if there was a circle of small sparrows around his head, and the chirping was so lively.

But of course he didn't dare to lie on the ground and pretend to be dead, so he quickly rolled up and got up, and honestly knelt at the feet of Deserted Summer, eager to lower his head to the crack in the floor.

"The mediocre look you spent drinking all day before, I'm afraid you didn't pretend to be, right?" The corners of Araxia's mouth smiled, but no matter how he looked at it, he felt that there were countless knives hidden in that smile, and as long as his beautiful lips were raised to the sides for half a minute, those knives would shoot out in an instant.

Duan Zhong didn't dare to answer, he just nodded, thought about it, and was afraid of being beaten, so he hurriedly shook his head.

As a result, he was still hit on the head coldly, but it was obvious that the strength of Araxia was much smaller than before, so he lowered his voice and said: "I don't have much time, I'll spare you for the time being, and next time I'll be so submissive, I will have someone tie you to the bow of the boat, cut off a small piece of meat from your body and throw it into the water to feed the fish." ”

"Yes!" Duan Zhong clenched his fists, but straightened up, and the expression on his face was as decisive as on the battlefield.

Araxia folded his arms, his mind racing about the current situation, saying that time was pressing, but in fact, he didn't feel that he was in a hurry.

Anyway, she left a fake phantom in the dark room, and the "Anan girl" was at the critical moment of operation and aggregation at this time, so she must not have made any other moves.

Originally, when Huang Xia was still a general protecting the country, he had a few fights with Zhu Yunfeng, the first-class general of Qingzhiyue, and in terms of personal cultivation alone, Zhu Yunfeng may be able to make a draw with his captain of the guard, but if you want to talk about tricks, this kid is definitely a good hand.

Since Huang Xia arrived in Meizhou City, Duan Zhong's reputation as a general defending the city has been defeated by him to the point that he has not even left any scum, but Huang Xia did not wait for the result he expected.

The city gate has been closed from the state city, and the civil air defense fortifications have been strengthened a lot, and when the daylight is right, you can see the silver arrows of the crossbowmen on the city tower even far away.

The spies in the city failed to bring out any eye-catching news, and only once the biography wrote: "Zhu Yunfeng led five hundred soldiers and horses out of the city to hunt." ”

When this biography came back, Huang Xia finally felt a little rare freshness, although the behavior of taking soldiers and horses out of the city to hunt was indeed a little weird, but was there any time when Zhu Yunfeng's behavior was not weird?

Just like this time, he casually made a play in the city, and he stuffed Meizhou City into a high priest of the stars...... So what's next? Will he take a squad of cavalry straight through the city?

Maybe that's what the "Anan girl" came for.

Thinking of this, he kicked Duan Zhong and said, "Every word I say now, you have to remember it clearly and engrave it in your mind!" Got it? ”

"Ming...... Got it. Duan Zhong maintained the movement of clenching his fists, and looked at Huang Xia with a dull look, like a diligent and inquisitive scholar.

Of course, this scholar is a bit big.

"I may be gone for a while, and when I come out of this room, you must remember that whatever is strange in the city, do not act rashly, even if it is ...... Even if you lose this Lizhou city, you can't make even half a resistance. ”

"Huh?" Duan Zhong's mouth was big, but he reacted quickly and immediately said, "Yes, my subordinates understand." ”

"In addition, send a message to all the outposts along the way from Lizhou to Baisha Port, if anything unusual happens, you don't have to fight hard, you just need to make a difference."

Araxia knew that he was gambling, and he was gambling, but he always had a different feeling - as long as he kept holding the seemingly powerless high priest in his hands, the final winner would definitely be him and his Dongzhixia.

"Leaving the state...... It doesn't matter if they lose it, anyway, they will be a hot potato in their hands, and sooner or later they will be held to death, but this Baisha Port is only more than 300 miles away from the imperial capital, and the agreed negotiation place is the Baishazhou that is only more than ten miles away from the waterway...... It's going to be inappropriate. Duan Zhong carefully chewed the two words that Huang Xia said just now, and he panicked in his heart, but he still had the courage to say his concerns.

Araxia didn't hit him this time, but patted him on the shoulder approvingly, and said, "You have such considerations, which proves that you are not a mediocre talent, if something unexpected happens, I believe you will also be able to deal with it." ”

"Then according to what the king said." Duan Zhong scratched his head, he was not a person without opinions, but he also knew that the duty of a soldier was obedience, besides, he had already seen the expression of ambition from Huang Xia's face.

The king has his own city, and those of them who are small soldiers only need to throw off their arms and charge into battle - that's right, he has always felt that he is still a small soldier, whether Huang Xia is a protector general or the king of a country, he Duan Zhong will always be willing to be a nameless soldier under his command.

Araxia nodded with satisfaction, and turned around, but before he stepped out of one foot, he seemed to suddenly remember something important, and even his face changed slightly.

Duan Zhong finally felt that the tense aura that lingered around his body gradually dissipated, but when he saw that Huang Xia turned his face again, he hurriedly bowed respectfully again, and said in a loud voice: "Congratulations to your lord—ouch!" ”

If he could, he really hoped that he had an iron brain, but unfortunately it backfired, he was just a mortal, and he was the kind of mortal who could never break through the realm of Yihua.

"What else does the king have to order......" Duan Zhong asked with a grunt as he touched half of his head, which had already raised a big bag.

"Is there any money?" Araxia coughed lightly, his eyes wandering, trying to make his expression natural, not so ...... It's so urgent.

Duan Zhong was completely stunned at this time, he even wanted to take the risk of committing a big crime of disrespect, go up and pull the face of the person in front of him, and see which guy who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and dared to pretend to be their incomparably great Emperor of Eastern Xia.

"Duan Zhong? Rich or not! ”

Huang Xia's loud shout almost made Duan Zhong's knees weak again, but he quickly stabilized his figure, because if he really knelt down on his feet unsteadily, he was afraid that he would directly fall into Huang Xia's arms......

That taste will definitely make him unforgettable for the rest of his life.

"Yes, yes, yes." Duan Zhong nodded, hurriedly turned around and ran to his desk, and carefully pulled out an inconspicuous-looking wooden box from a large pile of books.

The moment he opened the box, Duan Zhong's heart trembled - alas, he had saved up the silver for so long, and he was going to say goodbye to it today, he was really reluctant, reluctant.

Although the country of Dongzhixia is strong and the people are rich, and there has never been a day in the army that the salaries of the generals and officials have been deducted, Duan Zhong, as a former general in the south and now a middle-grade general in front of the palace, is not the master of the family.

Of course, he is not the kind of person who spends extravagantly, he joined the army at the age of sixteen, he started from the most ordinary soldier, step by step, to be able to sit in today's position, or rather, to live to this day, I have to say that he is a lucky person.

That's right, it's luck.

Because many familiar faces have been fixed in their minds, those comrades-in-arms who are covered in blood and even have severed limbs and arms are not as good as him in the end.

After so many years, he has forgotten how much he has paid to help the families of his deceased comrades-in-arms, and even when the money trembles in the hands of those martyrs, he will not remember for a moment whose family they are.

Is it Lao Li who likes to smoke dry tobacco? Or the rhubarb that blocked a knife for him and was split in half? No, maybe it's the "king bald" who was born with few hairs on his head?

Seeing Duan Zhong holding the wooden box and looking dejected, Huang Xia secretly felt a little funny, but he still pretended to be serious and stretched out his hand in front of Duan Zhong, as if everything was so taken for granted.

Duan Zhong took out a small bag from the box and handed it to Huang Xia, the several ingots of silver contained in it collided with each other and made some sounds, causing Huang Xia to frown for a while.

"Wouldn't it? That's it? Araxia was a little incredulous, and one hand was raised high again.

"That's all...... If you want more, your subordinates can help you go up...... Go grab ......" Duan Zhong raised his head, and there was no joke on his face.

This made Araxia take a step back in shock, but he immediately seemed to remember something, and sighed: "You, obviously your heart is still hot." ”

After speaking, he didn't say anything more, took the bag of silver taels in Duan Zhong's hand, turned around and walked out quickly.

The time spent here was not long, but it was not short, and his fake phantom gradually felt an ominous and powerful thought, perhaps the "Anan girl" had already made a move......

Only Duan Zhong was left standing in place, holding an empty box in his hand, muttering to himself: "I don't know if your lord took the wrong medicine this time, robbing other people's wine for a while, and robbing other people's roast chicken for a while...... Now I don't even let go of a few taels of silver, hiss...... Why does the king want money? ”
