Although Zheng Wujian is young, the city government is extremely deep.

The reason why he didn't immediately send troops to Langzhou Hell Sect was that he was afraid that the Kong family would ambush behind him, so he made sure that Kong Rong was arrested.

Zheng Tianqiao personally rushed to the Lingzhou City Lord's Mansion, where the Lingzhou City Lord was playing with the maids in the back garden, and hundreds of butterflies were flying among the startling flowers. The guards came to report: "Lord of the city, the elder of the Zheng family asks to see you." ”

The city lord Heli Qin happened to grab a maid and ravaged it with both hands on his chest, causing the maid to "giggle" and laugh, "If the city lord is bad, he will bully the slave family and hurt the slave family, let ......it go quickly."

Heliqin was willing to let go, laughed and continued to exert lewdness and authority, and the guard's report didn't seem to be heard at all, so the guard said again: "City Lord, the Great Elder of the Zheng Family has brought a decree from the court captain, there are 100,000 urgent matters, please decide the city lord." ”

Hearing this, Heliqin finally stopped moving, his face was very displeased, and he said impatiently: "This Zheng family has a lot of things, isn't it just a court captain, what's the big deal?" If it weren't for my old lady Heshu Prime Minister Heshu, how could you Zheng Hesheng be today? ”

He Liqin complained blindly, but he didn't stop, walked towards the city lord's mansion chamber, and casually greeted the guards, "You go and inform the commander Ma Buqian and let him come to the council hall." ”

The guards took the order and left. Heliqin went straight to the City Lord's Mansion, saw Zheng Tianqiao sitting in the council room, glanced at it and said, "What is the matter with the Zheng family coming to my City Lord's Mansion?" ”

In the face of Heliqin's arrogance, Zheng Tianqiao didn't mind, he was used to Heliqin's eyes. Who made the family a descendant of the old man of Pilu and Shu, and who made the position of Zheng and Sheng Tingwei promoted by the old minister and Shu. Therefore, he could only endure.

"Report to the city lord." Zheng Tianqiao respectfully clenched his fists, "Tingwei sent a message and ordered me to send it to the city lord immediately." As he spoke, he took out a note from his sleeve pocket and presented it.

He Liqin glanced at the slap-sized note with contempt, and said disdainfully: "The handbook uses such a little paper, and he can't do anything great with it." Although he was not very optimistic about Tingwei, Heliqin still opened the note and read it quickly.

Suddenly, Heliqin's frowning brows relaxed, and he said with a smile: "Kong Rong's old puppet was arrested, wonderful, wonderful." After some joy, he turned to Zheng Tianqiao and said: "You go back quickly, inform Zheng Wujian to send troops to Langzhou immediately, and I will immediately arrange for Ma Buqian to lead the city guards to Kong's house." ”

"Yes. The lord of the castle is wise. ”

Zheng Tianqiao saluted again and retreated out of the door of the chamber. Out of the door, turn around and go.

Ma Buqian and Zheng Tianqiao stepped on the front foot, Zheng Tianqiao just left, he rushed to the conference hall, hugged his fists and said: "The city lord has notified the future here, what's the matter?" ”

"Kong Rong has been imprisoned for treason, and the Kong family is gearing up to rebel, you quickly send troops to the Kong family to suppress it, block the gate of the Kong family, and wait for the next order from above."

"Yes, the last general."

……

Inside the Confucian compound.

They didn't know about Kong Rong's arrest at this time, and Kong Ao was discussing with the elders how to use troops to help Zong Wusheng resist the Zheng family's army.

The Great Elder said: "Since Lord Inspector Shi has subdued Shuangyu Village and occupied Hangu Pass. I'm afraid that the Zheng family's army will not be so easy to capture, and we can just wait for the praying mantis to catch cicadas and yellow finches. After the Zheng family's army meets with the overseer's army, we will first attack the Zheng family from the side. ”

"What the Great Elder said is extremely true." Kong Ao hesitated slightly, "If we send troops, the hatred with the Zheng family will be irreparable." ”

"Patriarch." The Great Elder said again: "Even if we don't send troops today, how can the Zheng family let our Kong family go?" How did the crime of our Confucian rebellion come about? Isn't it the Zheng family's Tingwei slandering in front of the king? Since the Imperial Kingdom has sent the Inspector Envoy Sect to come, if we don't seize this opportunity, we will no longer have the strength to fight back. ”

During the debate between the two, a soldier of the Kong family came quickly, with a lot of sadness on his face, and knelt on the ground when he entered the door, "Patriarch, Great Elder, I just came to the news from Zhongzhou that Shangqing has been arrested and put in prison?" ”

"What?!"

Everyone stood up, their faces suddenly tragic and indescribable, Kong Ao clenched his teeth, and said in a trembling voice: "My father is still going to be imprisoned at this age, doesn't he want his life?" Kong Ao looked at the soldier and asked, "For what crime is he imprisoned?" ”

"Hui patriarch, rebellion."

Kong Ao staggered back a few steps, sat down on the Taishi chair, and muttered, "It seems that the Kong family is going to die......"

"Patriarch-" The elders burst into tears and said tragically: "The old man has been arrested, and we have no way out, right?!" ”

"Yes, it's all death horizontally and vertically, but it's the other way around."

"Shut up!" Kong Ao shouted, "Didn't we kill my father if we reversed?" If we don't move, maybe my father will still have a chance to mediate, and everyone will listen to me, and no one will be allowed to mess around and wait and see what happens. ”

This is what Zheng Wujian wants, he just wants the Kong family not to dare to act rashly, so that he can lead his troops to concentrate on attacking Langzhou.

Everyone in the Kong family was silent, and suddenly heard a commotion outside, and a sound like rolling thunder entered the conference hall, "Listen to the Kong family, you are suspected of rebellion, and you will be controlled by the order of the court captain." I hope you don't mess around, otherwise you will be killed! ”

A wave of unevenness has risen again and again. Everyone was no longer surprised, immersed in the pain of Kong Rong being caught, and no one was alarmed when they heard the sound, and they were in a daze.

Ma Buqian deployed the city guards densely in front of the Kong family, and seeing that the Kong family did not make the slightest movement, he did not order an attack, but all of them were on standby. They are waiting for the next instructions conveyed above.

……

Zheng Wujian is now at peace in his heart, leading 20,000 Zheng Jiatie to ride forward, heading towards Langzhou.

Since ancient Langzhou, if you want to enter Langzhou, there is only one natural risky road, and that is Hangu natural insurance.

Zong Wusheng had already come to Shuangyu Village, and only then did he learn that the Holy War Alliance had not arrived, and he was very uncertain in his heart. However, the current situation forced him to be distracted from the matter of the Holy War Alliance, and after a little study with the three kings, 10,000 black-armored warriors lay in ambush on the peaks on both sides of Hanya Road. The villagers of Shuangyu Village were not idle, and when they heard that the Inspector was going to openly ambush the big family, they were all eager to try and mobilized from top to bottom.

The people of Shuangyu Village, regardless of men, women and children, lined up in a long line, and the long queue from the back mountain of Shuangyu Village to Hangu Pass.

They passed the large stones and bucket-thick logs in their hands to the black-armored samurai who were ambushed in Hanya, and then the black-armored samurai arranged them on the peaks on both sides of the Hanya Dangerous Road. Within two hours, the black-armored warriors were covered with countless rocks and rolling logs, and if anyone entered Hangu Pass, the black-armored warriors were confident that they would never return.

A black horse galloped on the dangerous road of Hangu, and the long journey made the black horse ooze red sweat beads. This is the sweat and blood BMW, and the sweat flowing from the body is as red as blood.

On the back of the black horse, carrying a man in black, he quickly waved the long whip in his hand, whipped one whip after another to hit the sweaty and bloody BMW, and soon galloped to the hidden entrance of Shuangyu Village, shouting: "I have an urgent military situation, open the door with me." ”

The guards at the gate recognized this person, it was the scout who was ambushed in Lingzhou by Shuangyu Village, and immediately opened the door for him and led him in. Came to the chamber of the king of Shuangyuzhai, and the scout quickly reported: "My lord, the king, the imperial country is in turmoil, Shangqing Kong Rong was arrested and imprisoned for rebellion, and the Lingzhou City Lord's Mansion also sent soldiers and horses to control the Kong family up and down......"

Kong Qi, who was on the side, heard this, his legs weakened, and he immediately fell to the ground, and was immediately helped up by two guards. The situation changed so quickly that it was completely unexpected. Originally, I was going to make a plan with Zong Wusheng to go to waste.

He had already told Zong Wusheng about the Kong family's plan, and he was ready to wait for the Zheng family's army to attack when the Zheng family's army attacked, and the Kong family's army would ambush the Zheng family from the rear, however, his grandfather Kong Rong was actually arrested, and the Kong family was also controlled, and the situation changed dramatically.

Zong Wusheng was unusually calm at this time, thinking for a while, and said to Kong Qi heavily: "Brother Kong, don't panic, this matter is not without room for maneuver. Hurry up and get me pen and ink. ”

Kong Qi worshiped Zong Wusheng as a god, and when he heard Zong Wusheng's tone, he knew that there might be a place for mediation in the matter, so he immediately came to Zong Wusheng's side. The guards also brought pen and paper and spread them on the bookcase.

Zong Wusheng said: "Kong Qi, you quickly tell me about the whole situation of Lingzhou." ”

Kong Qi told the story, Zong Wusheng drew a pen and sketched, and in a matter of moments, he drew a map of the entire Lingzhou. The three kings also came to the bookcase, looking at the map drawn by the Zongwu Sanctuary.

Zong Wusheng pointed to the map and explained, "The entire Lingzhou is an irregular square. Pointing to Yaozhou in the top corner: "Yaozhou and Youzhou are at the junction, and the terrain is similar to Langzhou, but Yaozhou does not have the unique conditions of Langzhou - Hangu Natural Insurance." ”

Everyone listened carefully to Zong Wusheng's detailed words: "Look. Zong Wusheng pointed to Langzhou in the bottom corner: "We are on the left side of Langzhou, and the right road is cut off by the Wugen River Basin. ”

Kong Qi didn't understand what Zong Wusheng meant, and besides, he knew that the water surface of the Rootless River was more than 100 zhang wide, who could cross it? Puzzled, he asked, "What if we cross the rootless river?" Our Kong family is already trapped and can't help much. ”

"That's not true." Zong Wusheng said with a smile on his face.

The crowd did not understand what he meant, and they pricked up their ears to listen. Zong Wusheng began to speak: "Your Kong family has now become a riot family, but you still expect a savior to appear? ”

Kong Qi shook his head, "The Kong family has no savior, we can only hope to save ourselves." ”

"Well, as long as you believe me, then I have a way." Zong Wusheng pointed to the Rootless River: "I will personally go to the Underworld Sect in a while, and order Wujia to bring 10,000 black-armored warriors to Lingzhou to attack the City Lord's Mansion." ”

"What?!" Everyone was amazed. Do you understand how difficult it is to cross the rootless river? What's more, there are still 10,000 black-armored samurai who cross together. However, what they were even more puzzled about was, why did the Lord attack the City Lord's Mansion?

The Great King Yu Biao said: "Why did your lord attack the City Lord's Mansion? ”

Zong Wusheng smiled and did not explain, his strategy was the strategy of "encircling Wei and saving Zhao" used by Sun Bin, the military division of the Chinese Qi State, at that time. Zong Wusheng ordered the black-armored warriors to attack the City Lord's Mansion, only to make a tentative attack, and quickly withdraw after a successful blow, the City Lord's Mansion will inevitably transfer troops back to defense, and the Kong family will take the opportunity to break out of the siege and quickly advance towards Langzhou.

"I'm afraid I have to follow this strategy all the way, as for the Zheng family, you don't have to worry too much, according to the layout I arranged in advance, the crisis in Langzhou is bound to collapse."

Zong Wusheng made a little arrangement, and went away with a pen to draw the gate of heaven. Everyone looked at Zong Wusheng, who had suddenly disappeared, and was speechless in surprise.
