Chapter 60: I Raise a Villain in Troubled Times (60)

"The defenders and people of Yuyang haven't left, what do I look like when I'm gone?" Gu Zhi looked at the sudden fire at the city gate, and did not mean to retreat, but walked towards the firelight.

He took out the sword from his waist, he was the son of a family, and he was also good at swordsmanship.

Xie Qun sat in the county guard's mansion in Jiangdong, and because of the cold weather, he was wearing a snow-white fox fur. The white fur lined with snow-like skin made him look like a noble prince who had not yet reached the crown, and he had no idea that he had been among the refugees more than a year ago.

"Three days to go...... The march will take five days at the earliest, as long as Yuyang can be taken within the remaining three days. Xie Qun bowed his head slightly, and if he took Yuyang, he would be able to catch Ye Xuan. Even if Ye Xuan couldn't be used to threaten Ye Shenyu, the news of Ye Xuan's death could be spread, which made Ye Shenyu feel upset.

In addition to Ye Xuan, there are also those people in Yuyang, who can also use it. Except for Ye Shenyu, none of the overlords on any side would care about whether the people in the city would starve to death, and personally went out to grab food. When it comes to war, the people are the source of military salaries.

Even if Ye Shenyu didn't care on the surface, he actually cared about the lives of those people in Yuyang City.

At that time, she must be very angry, she only wants to take his life, and she doesn't care about anything else, and when the time comes, she will set a trap gunpowder in the Jiangdong County Guard's Mansion. Even Ye Shenyu can't get out of Jiangdong alive.

Xie Qun's eyes were cold, and he clenched the scroll in his hand.

Yuyang City, which Xie Qun expected to be crumbling, was fighting to the death at this time, and Gu Zhi raised his long sword and greeted the Jiangdong army that poured in. His own soldiers surrounded him, trying to protect him in the midst of the chaos.

Taniji went up with the determination to die, but when he held the enemy's spear with his sword, he saw the figure of a young girl in the light of the fire at the city gate.

The girl with the knife stepped out of the firelight, the blade pierced the night sky, and the Jiangdong Army on her side fell screaming.

Just like every time she saved Yuyang, she came back again to save Yuyang.

Seeing this figure, Gu Zhi was a little stunned for a while, and the spears of the enemy soldiers on the opposite side stabbed at him. The personal soldier on his side blocked this shot for him in danger and slashed the enemy down: "Be careful, sir! ”

Gu Zhi came back to his senses, and instead of stepping forward to meet the enemy, he said, "The goddess is back." ”

Next, there is no need for him to say, the Yuyang Army who was throwing it against the enemy found Ye Shenyu's figure. They suddenly had the strength to knock down the enemy in front of them, and then spontaneously leaned towards Ye Shenyu's side.

Ye Shenyu's expression was calm, but the blade in his hand was like a life-threatening impermanence, and no one survived wherever he went. After a while, the Jiangdong army at the city gate was either killed or fled outside the city, and there was no longer a living Jiangdong army.

Ye Shenyu didn't put away the knife, her gaze swept lightly over the corpse on the ground. There are the corpses of the Yuyang Army, the corpses of the Jiangdong Army, and the corpses of the people of Yuyang. These Jiangdong troops attacked the city, almost looting.

She only glanced at it, then took a war horse and turned over on the horse: "Get out of the city." The Yuyang Army behind her shouted, "Yes." He followed her out of the city, as if it was not them who had only a few thousand people, but the Jiangdong army on the other side.

The ink in Ye Shenyu's eyes almost blended with the night, and she rode her horse to the camp of the Jiangdong Army, and picked the Jiangdong camp that she had just picked once from south to north.

This Jiangdong army was completely defeated, the commander was slashed by the girl who suddenly appeared, and the remaining soldiers wanted to fight again, but they were already defeated, and were scattered by the Yuyang army with only a few thousand people.

Before dawn, calm was restored under the city of Yuyang. Only a few thousand Yuyang troops were left and retreated into the city.

Ye Shenyu didn't go back, and the two-day run was nothing to her. As early as when she had just bound the system to do a task, she had spent seven days and seven nights chasing a mission target, which was far more mental and physical draining than rushing.

She put the long knife into the sheath, her eyes fell in the direction of Jiangdong, and her figure once again disappeared into the mountains and forests.

Xie Qun, who was far away in Jiangdong, didn't know what the battle situation was at all, he calculated the time, and was afraid that Ye Shenyu would arrive faster than he imagined. So he asked the people of the county guard to set traps early, and the Xie family has a deep background and has many people who are good at making organs.

Xie Qun pressed all the delicate mechanisms into the county guard's mansion, and then left gunpowder in a suitable place. This black powder is said to have been offered to Xie Songru by a Taoist and will produce a violent explosion when exposed to flames. When Xie Qun first saw this powder, he knew that this might be the only thing that could deal with Ye Shenyu.

He buried all the gunpowder in the county guard's mansion and waited for Ye Shenyu's wrath.

However, three days have passed, and there has been no battle report from Yuyang for a long time. In Xie Qun's estimation, Yuyang would not be able to resist two days ago, and the scout who sent the message would send the battle report and Ye Xuan to the county guard mansion together.

Xie Qun was uneasy, if there was no Ye Xuan, what would he use to threaten Ye Shenyu. There has been no news for so long, the Jiangdong Army may have been defeated, and he can't sit here and wait.

Xie Qun suddenly stood up from his seat, and the people in the courtyard who were busy debugging the mechanism were startled by his actions and fell to their knees one after another. I don't know what's going on in the past two days, my temper is getting worse and worse, and I won't be punished for doing something wrong before, and now I have to go to half my life if I don't die.

Xie Qun ignored these people, he grabbed the fox fur on one side, and ordered people: "Prepare a carriage, a few coarse cloth clothes, I will go out of the city to have a look." "Without Ye Xuan in his hands, he can't sit still in the county guard's mansion.

The subordinate left in response, and Xie Qun ordered again: "Transfer a team of elite soldiers from the city gate army, I want to ......" He didn't finish his words, and stopped.

The soldiers who listened to the order looked up suspiciously, only to see that the face of the little county guard, who was not alarmed, was pale at this time, and his pupils were dilated with fright.

Xie Qun stood next to the table and chair in front of the corridor, looked at the girl standing on the courtyard wall, trembled his lips and shouted: "Sister......" He subconsciously called out this sister, as if to bring him and Ye Shenyu closer, and he would be exempt from punishment.

Ye Shenyu looked at him, tilted his head slightly, and then appeared with the bright blade in her hand.

Xie Qun pushed away the soldiers next to him and took a few steps back. The soldiers felt that something was wrong and shouted: "Someone has assassinated to protect the county guard." ”
