Chapter 79
Yuzhou Castle is a famous and rich land, and not only in the south, but also in Kyushu. This place is rich in products and has a vast area, because of the topography, there will hardly be any flood disasters, and the bumper harvest for many years ensures the salary of the army construction, so although Yuzhou City has no natural danger to rely on, but it has a strong city defense and tug-of-war ability, which must not be underestimated.
But again, there are pros and cons to the world. The prosperity and stability of Yuzhou City made Yuzhou Taishou Liao Mo lose his sense of prevention, although there was a large amount of grain and grass in the city, but he did not plan, resulting in the old grain rotting in the warehouse every year. Although there are more than 10,000 elite soldiers in the city, he neglects training, causing them to be mentally depressed and just want to have fun. Although there are shrewd strategists and brave generals in the city, he ignores the opinions of his subordinates, which makes it difficult for the generals to be incompatible......
Right now, that's the scene.
Yuzhou City Taishou Mansion, in the spacious and majestic hall, Taishou Liao Mo did not sit on the big seat, but reclined, with a half-asleep look that was incompatible with the solemnity of the main hall.
Half-kneeling in the audience was a black-armored general, this person had a bearded and majestic face, obviously a veteran who had been baptized by war for a long time.
"My lord, Zhu Tong has launched a fierce attack on Zhennan Pass, no accident, the city can be broken in two days, and it will be able to reach outside my Yuzhou city in seven days!" The veteran's tone was excited, but the excitement was full of helplessness.
"So what, the reason why Zhennan Pass can't be defended is not because the city is not strong enough, but because Zhennan Pass Taishou made a wrong decision, he personally went into battle and was killed by the enemy, such stupid behavior greatly weakened the momentum of the defenders in the city, so that Zhu Tong would gain the upper hand. Liao Mo sat up straight and said, "You think I'm as stupid as him?"
The veteran general, they didn't know that the defeat was the decision of the king, so in their opinion, this is a fact, how can the supreme commander of their own side personally go into battle in the first battle, it is good to win, and if they lose, it will definitely deal a great blow to their own momentum.
Generally speaking, this kind of thing generally happens on the besieging side after a long time of attack, and the defender has enough food and grass and a large number of generals, as long as it is not a disadvantage, it is completely possible to adopt the strategy of not moving the troops to drag down the opponent.
At this time, another person took two steps forward and knelt down, and admonished: "Taishou is wise, but we must also be on guard in advance." In fact, a few days ago, we should have sent people to reinforce Zhennanguan, if Taishou listened to this opinion at that time, Zhennanguan should still be impregnable now. ”
This person was a strategist, and his words were very sarcastic, and he was obviously still blaming Liao Mo for not listening to them.
Liao Mo swept towards him coldly, and said: "The Holy Lord once said that Yuzhou City is the economic axis of the south, and it is not easy to launch troops, if there is no command or order from him, how can I send troops without permission?"
"But my lord, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and you must judge the situation and adapt to the situation, how can you stick to the rules and sit here and wait for death!" the veteran shouted excitedly again.
"Presumptuous! I have a lot of soldiers in Yuzhou City, and there is plenty of grain and grass, even if Zhennan Pass is broken, it doesn't matter, why sit still, I think you are disturbing the morale of the army!" Liao Mo was angry, but there was nothing to say, although he was mediocre, he would not kill loyal people indiscriminately.
"Don't talk about this matter, it's too late to reinforce Zhennanguan now, and there is even the danger of encountering the enemy halfway, so I just have to wait for the rabbit. ”
Wait for the rabbit, to put it nicely, who is the rabbit is not certain!
Several generals thought so, and at the same time, their mouths began to express their opinions, and for a while, the hall became noisy.
"Quiet and quiet!" Liao Mo pressed his hand and said: "You are also a veteran of many years of war, how can you be so timid, the enemy army is so frightened before it arrives, if the enemy army attacks the city, how can you resist the enemy!"
"The strategy for this battle has already been thought out, as long as we don't take the initiative to attack, with the abundant reserves in the city, we can kill them in a few months. ”
"Having said that, it is impossible for Zhu Tong not to think of this, he must have corresponding countermeasures, so we must also take precautions in advance!" The veteran has burst into tears, which shows how sad he is when he encounters such a "careless" Taishou.
"Take precautions, you know precautions, don't you understand the so-called wait and see what happens, vainly guess the enemy's intentions to prepare indiscriminately, waste resources and energy is small, and if you don't do it, it will make people panic, you can't even think of this, and you are embarrassed to point fingers at Ben Taishou here!" Liao Mo waved his sleeves and said: "Scattered, scattered, Ben is too tired, and he has to rest." It's a real hassle to be in the company of you idiots. ”
I have to say that this Liao Mo's ability to make strong words is not small.
Ignoring the indignant generals in the palace, Liao Mo thought about which lady to wait, and at the same time thought about how wise his decision was.
In fact, he didn't have this style originally, after Guy became the emperor himself, his official rank was raised from Taishou to the king of Yuzhou, but although the official rank was greatly improved, the real power in his hands was not improved, which is why he forgot to change his words, after all, life is still like that, King Cheng became the emperor himself, and it did not bring them a fundamental change.
No, if you want to say that there is a fundamental change, it is that this group of guys similar to Liao Mo is paying more and more attention to enjoyment, after all, the identity is different, and now we can also call ourselves "this king".
"By the way, you must remember one thing, you must call this king a prince in the future. Of course, this king is not very good at this, and you need to remind you more in the future, so that this king can adapt to this title as soon as possible. ”
turned around and said a word, and then Liao Mo didn't look back, and left the hall with a happy heart. In the hall, all the soldiers looked at each other, and they all saw a sense of sadness and helplessness in each other's eyes.
......
At the same time, in a dense forest fifty miles away from Yuzhou Chengguan, Li Xunlian's men and horses have already set up camp, and there are few people and few people, that is, they have sneaked to a place so close to the main city of Yuzhou, and the other party is not even alert at all.
Of course, this is largely "attributed" to Liao Mo's looseness, and at the same time, it has to be said that Li Xunlian's people are all elites, and it is reasonable to be able to do this.
In order to prevent detection by the enemy, tonight's food is all dry food, and there will definitely be fire and smoke when the fire is raised, and the location will be easily exposed.
In the big tent, Li Xunlian and the sword slaves except for Huanfeng sat around the desk, there were no boring rules between them, and they each gnawed dry food to study strategies.
"I think the raid from here will be a success. Su Ke's mouth was full, and as soon as he spoke, he sprayed dry food crumbs.
"You swallow something, it's disgusting. Li Xunlian pushed him aside, and the map was dirty with this goods.
Gu Panxi, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, picked up a smile and began to cover his mouth and laugh.
"Su is right, the south gate of Yuzhou City should be relatively easy to break through, because according to the report of Tanma, there are big loopholes in the rotation here, especially at midnight, and there will even be a gap period. Kunshan said.
Li Xunlian nodded and said: "That's true, but I don't understand, obviously Zhu Tong's army is about to break through Zhennan Pass, why the defense of Yuzhou City is still so lax, I suspect that there is fraud in it." ”
Clever is mistaken by smart, Li Xunlian is a calm person in this regard, in order to ensure the safety of his brothers as much as possible, he always thinks about things in great detail. But he was really worried about this matter.
The laxity of rotation is not the strategy of the Yuzhou guards, but the real laxity. The general responsible for guarding the south gate is Liao Mo's brother-in-law, this person is not only Liao Mo's hand, but also has the essence of Liao Mo, in terms of not looking forward and inaction, even better than Liao Mo.
As the saying goes, things gather people in groups, and few soldiers under Liao Mo are serious, drinking and gambling in the town, and city defense seems to be less important to them.
However, where can Li Xunlian know this, his caution is out of normal considerations, and the mistake is definitely right, but this time it is really just luck.
"Huanfeng should be back soon, when he returns, let him go to the city to investigate for himself, and then make a decision. Li Xunlian thought for a moment and said.
Several people nodded, in fact, they thought the same as Li Xunlian. This is a very normal situation, but anyone with a little brains will not choose to attack rashly without knowing the enemy's situation.
Huanfeng has top-level speed, which is very important in the overall raid strategy, so naturally he can't be out of touch with the big army for a long time. After searching in the Zhennan Mountains to no avail, Huanfeng returned to his headquarters a few days later.
At this time, it has been three days since Li Xunlian set up camp here, during which Zhu Tong's army successfully broke through Zhennan Pass, and after arranging many matters after the break, leaving 10,000 people to defend the city, the army started again.
Although the group of goods under Zhu Tong was embarrassing, I have to say that the pioneer horses trained by Zhu Tong himself were really powerful, and I don't know how they found the clues, and they actually probed the place where Li Xunlian's headquarters was stationed.
However, when Zhu Tong's detective horse found Li Xunlian's camp, he was also captured by Li Xunlian's nearby sentry, and at this moment, Li Xunlian was talking to that person in the big tent.
"I didn't expect the son's speed to be slow, and he actually arrived outside Yuzhou City next. Tanma sneered and said, he is different from those strategist generals, he is Zhu Tong's descendant, and he has no good impression of Li Xunlian at all, let alone respect.
"What, according to Zhu Tong's expectations, where should I be now?" Li Xunlian asked with a faint smile, he couldn't afford to compete with a little minion angrily.
"Hmph, what do you have to be proud of, it's nothing more than that the number of people is small and it's easy to sudden. But even if you touch the city of Yuzhou, it's useless, with 1,500 people trying to break the city, it's a joke. I don't know where the courage of the horse came from, and he spoke more and more presumptuously.
However, Li Xunlian was still not angry, and said with a smile: "Yes, but how do I think that the effect of 100,000 idiots together doesn't seem to be comparable to my 1,500 elites." ”
"Nonsense, our time is wasted in Zhennan, otherwise we will not be left behind you. Tanma snorted coldly, and said: "But His Royal Highness also said, it doesn't hurt to let you have some, such a large pass as Zhennan Guan Yuzhou City, we will naturally break through it in person, wait for waste materials, just look at the excitement." ”
"Oh? It seems that Zhu Tong still has some slight words. Li Xunlian smiled and said, "This son also gave him a chance to be a waste material." You go back and tell Zhu Tong to let him camp in place, and two days later, I will personally open the gate of Yuzhou City to welcome his army into the city!"
On a plain one hundred and fifty miles away from Yuzhou City, Zhu Bai's army is encamped, it is still a hundred miles of continuous momentum, if you look down in mid-air, it is like a long dragon winding, swinging its head and tail and coveting the fertile soil of Yuzhou.
However, it is a little suspicious that he chose this place to camp, although it is a plain, there are many large swamps, among which the danger is really unpredictable......
As for the reason, no one knows, and I am afraid that only Zhu Tong can grasp the inside story.
The climate in the south is much hotter than in Zhongzhou, although it is late at night, but the air is still full of dry heat, Zhu Tong stands quietly at the door of the big tent, and the two eunuchs are fanning him to cool off.
In front of him, Tanma, who had just returned from Li Xunlian, was half-kneeling on the ground, with both disdain and anger in his words, obviously repeating Li Xunlian's words.
Zhu Tong listened quietly, and it wasn't until Tanma finished speaking that he smiled disdainfully and said, "Li Xunlian is really confident, breaking the city in two days, with his 1,500 men and horses, it is tantamount to an idiot's dream." ”
"What His Highness said is extremely true, and his subordinates think that this matter is a good thing. You think, Li Xunlian, that kid is anxious for quick success and wants to compare with you, and the result of boasting about the two-day break of Haikou is to rashly send troops, and only a thousand and a half men and horses fight against tens of thousands of male soldiers in Yuzhou City, which is tantamount to a moth to a fire, and it is the way to die. Tanma laughed.
Slowly shaking his head, Zhu Tong said: "You are underestimating him, he is not stupid enough to be that extent." If Bengong's guess is correct, he will still rely on the advantage of a small number of people but all of them are Gu Xuan Xuan Xiu, and capture the thief and the king with a quick raid. ”
Tanma was stunned when he heard this, and then asked: "But Your Highness, your subordinates don't understand a little, his 1,500 people are all Xuan Xiu, but with these alone, can you break the city, it is feasible to raid and capture the king, but the premise is to enter the city." ”
"Naturally, have you forgotten that he has four powerful servants under him, one of them is named Huanfeng, whose speed can be called unexpected, and it must not be difficult for him to enter the city first to create chaos, and then take the opportunity to open the city gate. Zhu Tong looked into the distance and said quietly.
"Ahh......h
"Don't worry, who said that if you open the city gate, you will definitely be able to capture the city lord, such a big Yuzhou City, isn't there one who is the opponent of the Four Sword Slaves?" Zhu Bai smiled, and said: "This palace used to play in the south when he was a child, and Yuzhou City is the richest area in the south, so naturally it will not fall." That trip is really wonderful in retrospect, because there, the main palace met a very important person to the main palace, he is the main palace's swordsmanship enlightenment teacher, the southern sword saint Ouyang Cen!"
Hearing this, Tanma was taken aback, but he didn't expect that the legendary prince teacher was actually from the Southland......
"Are you thinking that the master of this palace is a sword saint of the southern land, will it have an impact on the conquest of the southern land by this palace?" Zhu Bai saw that Tanma was silent, so he asked again.
Tanma nodded, "As Your Highness said." ”
Zhu Tong chuckled twice and said: "There must be obstacles, as early as when I returned from exploring the galaxy outside the palace, I talked to the teacher, and the palace said that I want to unify the world, and I want to conquer the south to pull out the thorn in the heart of the imperial court." ”
"Then what did Ouyang Sword Saint say?" Tan Ma was intrigued.
He said that Nandi is his hometown, although he can't take care of the entire Nandi, but Yuzhou City, as his hometown, has to take care of it. ”
Speaking of this, Zhu Tong paused for a moment, and then said: "Come to think of it, if this palace stands in the teacher's position, I don't want to see my hometown suffer from the war." But there is no way, Shi'en is Shi'en, a teacher's grace, and it can't be a reason to block the footsteps of the palace, this south, the palace must be taken, and Yuzhou City, as the economic center of the south, naturally can't be missed. ”
Tanma frowned, it was the first time he felt cold-blooded in the prince, but this did not make him shake his loyalty to Zhu Tong at all, the more this happened, the more he felt that following Zhu Tong could achieve unprecedented feats. Although he is still just a scout, but what's the matter, now the prince has a tendency to reuse himself, as long as he works harder, sooner or later he will get ahead, right?
So, in a fit of rage, the teacher left and went back to the south. Time has passed, but I didn't expect that God really gave the palace the opportunity to conquer the south, and now Yuzhou City is in front of you, teacher, he must still be in the city. ”
Hearing this, Tanma already knew that Li Xunlian wanted to attack Yuzhou City by raiding and killing Yuzhou Taishou, but Yuzhou City had the Southern Sword Saint in charge, and Li Xunlian's advantage of strong individual combat ability was greatly weakened.
"Haha, isn't this the situation of catching turtles in an urn?" said Tanma with a smile.
"It's hard to say, although the teacher is a great power of the Shenhai, the ability of those four servants and slaves cannot be underestimated. A hard fight is inevitable, and even lives may be lost. When Zhu Tong said this, he didn't feel worried at all, but showed a sense that everything was under control.
Seeing this, Tanma knew that the prince must have a plan, so he deliberately asked, "What should I do?"
"Simple, find someone to inform, let the teacher prepare in advance, as far as this palace knows, he still has a few disciples active in various parts of the Southland, just call back the enemy quickly." Zhu Tong smiled, "Bengong was worried about not wanting to meet with the teacher, but I didn't expect Li Xunlian to come out like a clown jumping off the beam, so just right, when they fight to the death, the palace sent troops to Yuzhou City, not only Yuzhou City is at your fingertips, but also can save the lives of Li Xunlian and the teacher, it is really perfect." ”
"Forgive my subordinates for being stupid, saving Ouyang Sword Saint is to repay the teacher's kindness, but why do you want to save that child surnamed Li?" Tanma asked suspiciously.
"Because we have an appointment in advance, this palace wants to cut off his head with his own hands, not to mention, it should be more insulting for him to save him than to defeat him. Zhu Yan's face became gloomy and happy, maybe he didn't realize it himself, because he wanted to defeat Li Xunlian, he was no longer the same self he used to be.
Moreover, when a person is desperate to defeat the other party to prove himself, in fact, in this person's heart, he has already subconsciously believed that he is inferior to the other party......
"The subordinates understand, so the matter of informing Ouyang Jiansheng will be handed over to the subordinates. "Tanma surrendered his hand and asked for his life.
Zhu Tong looked down at him twice, and said with a smile: "Work hard, this palace admires you very much." ”
Tanma was flattered, and after showing his loyalty, he was ordered to go.
......
Yuzhou city occupies a hundred miles of place, there is a mountain peak that is not much high but very delicate in the north of the city, there is a building on the peak, it seems to be a palace but not a palace, it seems to be a view but not a view.
It was the middle of the night, and the moonlight was shining through the dome, illuminating the open space in front of the building. There is an old man with white eyebrows standing quietly in the open space with a long sword with a sheath, there are several clusters of bamboo cultivation on his left, the night wind blows, the bamboo cultivation sounds, and a few bamboo leaves that have just germinated fall away.
The white-eyed old man sneered, and he didn't see how he acted, and several Xuanqi swords were condensed around his body in vain, and the sword light was scorching, making the moonlight eclipsed.
"A young man, he dares to hide his body in front of the old man?!"
As soon as the words fell, a sword of Xuan Qi suddenly shot out, and the target was actually the seemingly ordinary wall after cultivating bamboo.
With a bang, the wall was pierced, and with a scream, a figure collapsed to the ground.
"Who, what. The white-eyed old man's words were indifferent, but it was even more contemptuous. The black shadow trembled when he heard this, and his heart could not contain a sense of the humility of an ant.
"The Sword Saint forgives the sin, the villain has no intention of offending, but he just sees that the Sword Saint seems to be pondering, and he doesn't dare to take the liberty of bothering. ”
As he spoke, the black shadow barely got up, and Fang Cai's sword was not heavy-handed, otherwise he would not have the life to speak now.
Regardless of whether what the black shadow said was true or not, he did not answer the question of the white-eyed old man, so a trace of impatience appeared on the white-eyed old man's face, and the Xuanqi Sword that surrounded his body also trembled again.
Seeing this, the black shadow was shocked, and quickly cut to the point, and said: "The villain was originally a guard under the innkeeper, but at the same time, he is also a person from the southland, and the southland is the hometown of the villain......"
"Nonsense, tell the meaning directly!" The white-eyed old man seemed to be a very irritable person, and directly interrupted the black shadow's words.
"Gongzi plans to attack Yuzhou City by surprise, and the time is within these few days, and they will slaughter the city to demonstrate after the city gate is opened. "Where did the black shadow dare to say something that he didn't have, he directly picked the key points and said it one by one.
"Oh, so you're here to report the news. The white-eyed old man sneered, and said: "Your so-called innkeeper is Li Xunlian, your so-called hometown Nandi is not a city in Yuzhou, you find the old man, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as reporting the news, right?"
Stopped by this series of questions, the black shadow didn't know how to answer, so he had to hesitate, and couldn't say a word for a while.
However, the white-eyed old man didn't seem to want to get an answer after asking, so he just looked at the night sky by himself, and said quietly for a long time: "The old man knows, you go back to your life." ”
Hearing this, the black shadow hurriedly retreated, and in front of this old man, his heart was always beating suddenly, as if all his thoughts could not be hidden.
However, as soon as he took two steps, he suddenly noticed something, and couldn't help but stop, and said with a forced smile: "The Sword Saint wants the villain to go back to his life, right...... What does it mean......"
"Hmph, you are a three-year-old child when you are an old man? Go back and tell Zhu Tong, no matter whether his information is true or not, but anyone who tries to cause trouble in Yuzhou City, the old man's sword is not merciful. And that, too, includes him!"
"Be sure to convey it, you must convey it. "The black shadow is naturally the scout, and at this moment, the plan was seen through, so he had to retreat, but when he retreated, he still didn't forget to emphasize that Li Xunlian had the intention to attack and break the city was the truth, and he also pretended to care about what the four sword slaves intended to trouble Ouyang Sword Saint before breaking the city, and the Sword Saint could always be on guard.
After the horse left, Ouyang Sword Saint looked at the night sky and frowned. The night sky is clear, but the haze that seems to be there is still shrouded, it can't stop the long moonlight, but it is dead in the old man's heart.
"Alas, the old man doesn't have long to live, how the old man in Kyushu doesn't want to think about it, as long as the old man is safe in this hometown, he can look at it. ”
In his own words, Ouyang Sword Saint slowly lifted the long sword he was holding, took it in his hand and rubbed it carefully: "Old friend, I didn't expect that in my lifetime, I would have to trouble you to unsheath it once......
The strong enemy is approaching, but the city of Yuzhou is still lively, and there is no tension at all.
This is naturally thanks to Liao Mo, the king of Yuzhou, within his jurisdiction, what the people can see is always the strength of Yuzhou City, as for the enemy army, it has never been worth mentioning.
Of course, how can the people know about the strength of the enemy's army, and even Liao Mo himself is just deceiving himself.
In the southern district of Yuzhou City, at the corner of the eaves of a seven-story restaurant, the wind stands quietly. He glanced at the crowd below who were still coming and going even though it was late at night, his face expressionless.
His task has been completed, the deployment of the city defense, the environment of the lanes, the location of the palace, the change of guards, etc., as well as the reasons why the south gate of Yuzhou City is so loosely defended, are all clear to him.
The figure flickered a few times and quickly disappeared into the night.
In a dense forest fifty or sixty miles away from Yuzhou City, Li Xunlian led the headquarters guards to lie dormant quietly, just waiting for Huanfeng to return, and if the news brought back was consistent with the plan formulated, he could directly launch a surprise attack.
"It's back. Su looked at the thick night ahead and said softly.
Li Xunlian nodded, the four sword slaves had a strong sense of each other, which even Li Xunlian could not compare.
Suddenly, before Huanfeng appeared, he had never talked nonsense, and directly told everything he had seen and heard in the city, which could be determined and undetermined, all of which were detailed one by one, and it could be said that the task was completed very satisfactorily.
After hearing this, Li Xunlian did not hesitate at all, and made a forward gesture in the direction of Yuzhou City, and 1,500 elites began to quietly touch towards Yuzhou City.
The night was deep, the sky was full of stars, and the faint glow of fire shone above the towering city wall, and as far as the eye could see, only a few figures could be faintly seen leaning against the battlements at the head of the wall. The flag of Yuzhou City fluttered wantonly in the night wind, making a hunting sound.
Li Xunlian frowned slightly, although he had already been investigated by Huanfeng, he still didn't dare to believe that a city of the level of Yuzhou would have such a serious loophole in the defense.
If it is not too incompetent, it is the other party's plan to lure the enemy. However, if he is so incompetent and thinks that he is a king, how can he let him be in such a high position......
Gently shaking his head to let himself retract his thoughts, since Huanfeng has already probed properly, it is nine times out of ten that nothing will go wrong. I've always been lucky.,Presumably this time it's also luck.,Meet a mediocre person.。
"Huanfeng. He called softly.
Huanfeng nodded, and immediately led a dozen guards with better body skills to quietly go around the corner of the city wall, each of them used their skills, and swept along the straight city wall like walking on the ground.
This is a strategy that has been formulated before, Huanfeng opened the gap, Mei Wu led a large number of people and horses in the city to take the Taishou mansion, but the main purpose was to create chaos, Li Xunlian and Kun Shansu led a few people around the Taishou mansion through the laneway path, and then launched a surprise attack to capture the thief and capture the king.
This is where the strategy is clearly defined before the war can greatly improve the efficiency of operations. I saw Huanfeng leading more than a dozen people to climb over the wall, and quietly killed a dozen patrol soldiers in the left corner of the battlement, and then quickly changed their clothes and headed towards the city gate. All this is without the slightest disorder and delay, and the goal is clear, like a lightning speed.
After a while, there was a creaking sound from the city gate, and a gap slowly opened in the huge and heavy door, and Li Xunlian immediately issued an order to enter the city when he saw this, and 1,500 men and horses quietly sneaked into the city in the night.
Fifteen hundred men were not many in the war, but it was not a small number to infiltrate the city. Li Xunlian was ready for an unexpected situation, but he thought about it again, from beginning to end, until the last group of people quietly entered the city, and the Yuzhou guard failed to find the slightest abnormality.
Sometimes, it is not a good sign that things are going too well, and now Li Xunlian has a throbbing feeling in his heart. It's an amazing feeling, as if you can see what's going to happen.
"Childe?" Seeing Li Xun's eyebrows, Mei Wu asked softly from the side.
Since he has entered the city, there is no reason to give up because of a little omen in his heart, Li Xunlian nodded, signaling that Mei Wu can act.
According to the original plan, Mei Wu made as much noise as possible, which was easy for her, and it was difficult to make a noise without a voice.
But when she heard the sound of the cannon horn, Mei Wu led 1,200 people to appear from the shadows, shouting and killing, and went directly to the Taishou Mansion to kill.
At the same time, Li Xunlian and Su Qikunshan also began to move, and since Huanfeng had already drawn up the map, they now only had to follow the map to avoid the patrols everywhere and arrive at the Taishou Mansion by surprise.
As for the frontal battle, it will be left to Huanfeng and Mei Wu. Of course, the so-called frontal battle does not require them to fight hard, they can attract and hold back the enemy's large number of defending troops, they are really invincible, and they can also fight and retreat, after all, the lives of the brothers are the most important.
There was a sudden movement in the city, which frightened the generals guarding the southern district of Yuzhou, who was admiring the moon in front of the attic of the mansion at this moment, holding the glamorous concubine in his arms, tasting the best tea in his mouth, and hearing the sound of shouting and killing.
A large number of enemy troops suddenly appeared in the city, looking in the direction of the palace to kill. The messenger arrived, and before the general could react from his horror, a figure knelt on the ground.
"Didn't the palace come for the official?" the general breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately ordered: "Notify me to mobilize half of the men and horses to guard the official mansion first, and the other half will rush to the aid of the palace." ”
is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, if you ask who this person is, it is Li Qingming, the brother-in-law of Liao Mo, the king of Yuzhou, who wants to be literate and martial arts, and can't even compare to wine bags and rice bags.
"Hmph, if you are such a waste of wood, it is better to let the thieves hack to death. ”
The messenger was just about to go to issue the order, when suddenly a figure appeared in the courtyard as if out of thin air. This person has a slender figure, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a sword with cold light shining brightly in the moonlight, and his style is extraordinary.
Li Qingming was stunned for a moment, and then shouted in horror: "Who is coming, there are 800 elite soldiers hidden in this official mansion, if you dare to be presumptuous, you will be beheaded in a different place!"
Looking at Li Qingming's fierce appearance, the swordsman sneered twice and said, "Waste is waste after all, let everyone go to the palace to help, what is here is here, it is enough to protect you." ”
"He?" Li Qingming frowned slightly, although he didn't have the ability, but the news was very well-informed. Looking at this person's appearance and this surname, after thinking about it for a while, he knew the identity of the other party.
"It turned out to be one of the seven swordsmen under the Sword Saint Seat, what heroes are here, this official can indeed sit back and relax!" Li Qingming stroked his palms and laughed, Ouyang Sword Saint has a total of seven descendant disciples, these seven people's strength is all in the late Tianhe period, and they are quite famous in the south, and the late Tianhe period is just their Xuan Xiu strength, if you add that elusive sword dao, even if you compete with the peak of Tianhe, it is not impossible.
Having this man to protect himself is, in a way, more secure than the eight hundred elite soldiers.
It's just that for the sake of everything, Li Qingming still didn't follow the instructions of the swordsman surnamed He, although he ordered to go all out to help the palace, but the eight hundred elite soldiers still stayed in the palace.
In this way, he can rest assured.
"I don't know why Lord Sword Saint is so favored by Xia Guan?" Li Qingming intended to curry favor with the swordsman surnamed He, but his method of finding topics was really inferior.
"Hmph, favor, you also deserve to be favored by the master?" The swordsman surnamed He sneered twice and said, "The officials above the third rank in the city are protected by our senior brothers, and you are just one of them." ”
Hearing this, Li Qingming was slightly disappointed, but there was a detail that he was caught by, so he asked, "In this way, did Lord Sword Saint know in advance that the enemy would launch a surprise attack tonight?"
"Yes, the family teacher is like a god, and three days ago, he called the seven of our senior brothers back to the division and instructed the strategy. The swordsman surnamed He had a look on his face.
"It's amazing, it's worthy of being a Sword Saint of the Southlands. So, what about the old man of the Sword Master?" Li Qingming asked again.
"The Venerable Master naturally went to the palace in person, and only waited for the enemy leader to appear, and then he could capture the thief and capture the king!"
Both sides actually had this kind of plan, Li Xunlian wanted to take Yuzhou City Taishou through a surprise attack, while Ouyang Sword Saint was waiting for Li Xunlian to come to the door. In this way, it is a situation where a praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches behind, but it is unknown who can laugh to the end.
......
The main road of Yuzhou City is ten zhang wide, and this specification is not inferior even compared to the imperial city, but it is still a little crowded at the moment, because thousands of people and horses are gathering here to fight.
Charming holding the Xunhuo sword, the conflict back and forth is like a fire, and no one can stop it. When the waves of fire swept by, there would be wailing again and again, she killed happily, but the other party had already been broken, and she was frightened by this female god of war.
Compared with the way of opening and closing the dance, Huanfeng is much more "low-key". The sting sword was silent, and every time the sword light flashed, the other party didn't even have time to wail, and the head had already left the neck and rolled out of the body.
The guards of Yuzhou City have been instilled with the idea that no one can threaten Yuzhou City all year round, and in fact, it is not indoctrination, but they have followed Liao Mo's side for too long, and they have already been infected with the vice of not wanting to make progress.
The soldiers were like this, but the general in charge of meeting the enemy was quite insightful, and he was the veteran who tried his best to advise. It stands to reason that now as long as you stabilize the morale of the army, and then organize a large array to attack and kill with the number of people, not to mention the total annihilation of the other party, but with only those thousands of men and horses, you can't make much waves.
It's just that it is not easy to stabilize the army's heart, no matter how much he tries, he will not be able to control this situation of defeat after all.
However, at this moment, three figures appeared on the house in the distance, flying over the green tiles of the roof.
At the same time, their mouths shook and roared, and powerful Xuan Qi fluctuations spread out.
Hearing the sound, Mei Wu and Huanfeng gathered their momentum and stood still, all staring at those figures.
"Dare to be a thief, dare to violate the realm of my Yuzhou, accept your life!"
With a loud shout, three figures volleyed out their swords, and the sword light like the luster of the bright moon came in the blink of an eye!
It is said that while Huanfeng and Mei Wu were intercepted, Li Xunlian and others were also in trouble.
When he walked to a hidden alleyway, the sound of shouting and killing suddenly sounded on the outside of the high wall, and then hundreds of people swarmed out, trapping Li Xunlian and others in the alley.
The leader is a swordsman in Tsing Yi. This life is handsome and extraordinary, and the long sword in his hand is shining brightly, and he knows at a glance that it is not ordinary.
"The head of the Seven Musketeers, Yuzhou Xu Lin has been waiting here for a long time. The swordsman in Tsing Yi arched his hand at Li Xunlian and said.
Li Xunlian frowned and looked at it a few times, the other party had no intention of hiding his cultivation, so it could be seen that this person was a late Tianhe Xuan cultivator, and the long sword in his hand was a holy weapon primary.
