Chapter 236: Chaos in the City
The shopkeeper went and left the counter, saying that he had asked the shopkeeper about spices.
Xia Fan waited for a long time and didn't see anyone come back.
Feeling a little tired, he sat down in a chair on the side.
The shopkeeper was a fat man with glasses.
He rubbed his hands together and walked over with a smile.
"Objective, I heard you're going to buy my aromatherapy formula?"
When Xia Fan saw it, he knew that he was another greedy and lustful lord.
Then he said, "You are the shopkeeper?" ”
"Exactly, exactly, below is the shopkeeper of the Yanzhou Yellow Crane Tower, Hu Chunhua."
Hu Chunhua said with a smile.
Xia Fan took out the remaining silver from his pocket.
"Is it enough to buy your aromatherapy formula?"
Hu Chunhua saw that Xia Fan was so generous, so he smiled and said: "Of course, of course, these silver are not only enough, but also a little more, I think so......"
As he spoke, he left two pieces of silver for Xia Fan, and he put the rest away.
"Seeing that you are so sincere, I will give you some discounts."
Then, he took out the aromatherapy formula and handed it to Xia Fan.
"This is my ancestral recipe, if it weren't for the sake of being so objectively involved, it would never be sold."
Xia Fan nodded slightly, thinking, the words are good, after taking so much money from me, no wonder they all say that there is no treachery, no treachery, no business.
"Alright, our deal is complete, you can go."
Xia Fan waved his hand and said.
Hu Chunhua left with a smile, the joy and happiness in his heart were written on his face, which made people know at a glance that the smile on his face made the wrinkles on his skin appear deeper.
When he came to the backyard, he took a piece of silver and gave it to the shopkeeper.
"Take it, this is your reward, if someone comes to ask about aromatherapy in the future, it will be sold at today's price."
He seems to have found a better way to make money than by opening an inn.
Hu Chunhua counted the silver and returned to his room.
"I didn't expect that there are really fools who buy this fragrance that is sold all over the street."
Xia Fan and his party left the inn in the afternoon.
The three of them walked on the road, and saw that most of the people in the crowd were carrying burdens and walking in a hurry, as if they were going out of the city.
Xia Fanyou stepped forward, stopped an old woman, and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
The old woman replied, "You don't know yet, it is said that Kyoto has sent troops to attack Yanzhou, and it will be possible to arrive in half a day, so you should flee for your life quickly." ”
After saying that, she didn't say a word, and ran in the direction of the city gate.
Xia Fan looked at the people fleeing in Yanzhou City.
I thought to myself, it seems that those eyeliners still fled back to Kyoto, but I didn't expect that Su Meng's unintentional actions would cause such an uproar.
Chen Wu said on the side: "Boss, let's get out of here quickly, otherwise the army will attack and kill, and we won't be able to leave." ”
"Nope."
At this moment, Xia Fan had no intention of leaving, everything was caused by them, and now, he just walked away, which would only increase casualties.
"It started because of us, at least to ensure the safety of these people."
Su Meng is a person who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and he will go wherever it is lively.
At this moment, she and Xia Fan had the same idea and chose to stay in this Yanzhou City.
However, they didn't know that at this moment, the gates of Yanzhou City on all sides had been closed, and the people in the city had nowhere to escape.
"Come to the gates and let us out! ……”
………………
All the passes in the city have been closed by the soldiers defending the city, and the people are separated and resisting, but they are blocked by the spear array, and the number of casualties is rising.
"Pingxi Hou has an order! The people are not allowed to go out of the city! ”
The general defending the city stood at the head of the city and shouted.
"Whoever dares to take another step forward, I will make ten thousand arrows fire!"
In a word, the people who wanted to leave the city were shocked.
A moment later, Xia Fan and his party came to the East City Gate.
Seeing that the soldiers defending the city were deadlocked with the people, Xia Fan thought to himself, this Pingxi Hou wouldn't want to use the people of the whole city as the last bargaining chip, right?
"Su Meng, it seems that you saved the wrong person."
Xia Fan saw that the situation was grim, but he didn't rush to make a move.
"I can also see that this Pingxihou should want to use the lives of Yanzhou City and the people of the city as the last bargaining chip."
Su Meng has lived for more than 200 years, and his analysis of the situation is still very good.
"So what now? The strength of the three of us is enough to open the gate of the Quartet, or ......"
Chen Wu moved his hands and feet, as if he was ready to make a big move.
Xia Fan waved his hand: "Not yet, the situation is still unclear, it is better to wait until Pingxihou threatens the lives of the people, and then we will open the gate of Yanzhou City." ”
For these three people, these soldiers in the city, the soldiers defending the city, are not a problem at all.
Xia Fan only needed one person to kill the soldiers guarding the east city gate, thus opening the city gate.
Su Meng and Chen Wu, not to mention.
Outside the city of Yanzhou, in the mountains and forests, the flames of war are pervasive.
Pingxi Hou was defeated and retreated, and there were few troops left.
Immediately, he ordered the forest to be set on fire in order to delay time. Then, they retreated to the city of Yanzhou.
Yanzhou City, Pingxi Hou Fuzhong.
"Now, our general trend has gone, and only the people in Yanzhou City can be used as the last bargaining chip."
A man dressed in white said in front of Pingxihou.
This person's name is Chen Li'an, a native of Yanzhou, and he is the former military advisor of the Pingxi Hou Formation.
Pingxihou thought for a moment, his brows furrowed,
"There is only this way, military advisor, you arrange it, if the emperor refuses to back down, I will ask the people in the city to be buried with me!"
Now, the corners of Pingxihou's mouth have been vividly displayed.
Only at this time will people express their truest inner selves.
At night, in Yanzhou City, there are horses' hooves, and the streets are full of soldiers holding torches.
Pingxi Hou ordered that the people of the whole process be gathered to the location of the central street of Yanzhou City.
The mountains and forests burned for a day and a night, and finally went out.
The army of Kyoto rushed through the mountains and forests and had already come to the city of Yanzhou.
"Pingxi Hou, go out of the city and surrender, the emperor has a will, as long as you go to Kyoto, you can save your life."
The general, who took the lead, shouted in front of the battle.
Above the east gate of Yanzhou, Pingxi Hou looked at the general who took the lead under the city.
"Can the emperor care about the lives of the people in the city?"
"Go back quickly and tell the emperor that I will only stay in Yanzhou, if you attack it, the people in the city will be covered with corpses."
When the siege generals heard this, their teeth itched with hatred, as if they wanted to jump on the city tower at this moment and cut off the head of Pingxi Hou.
"Retire!"
In desperation, he had no choice but to order the withdrawal of troops first.
I saw that in the night, the camp with torches slowly retreated.
Xia Fan, Su Meng, and Chen Wu, the three of them were also taken to the central street.
His hands and feet were still tied by the soldiers.
Look at the crowd around you, and the archers with bows and crossbows on their backs.
Xia Fan thought to himself, it seems that what I was worried about has happened, I really didn't expect Pingxihou to be such a person.
"Boss, do it, if you don't do it, I'm afraid they're going to do it!"
Chen Wu looked at the soldiers and crossbowmen around him, and said softly to Xia Fan.
Xia Fan smiled slightly: "Don't worry, it's not time yet." ”
Chen Wu looked at Xia Fan with a puzzled expression and asked, "Boss, what are you waiting for?" ”
Xia Fan didn't speak.
Su Meng said on the side: "He is waiting for the night, when his vigilance is relaxed." ”
When Xia Fan heard this, he smiled and said, "Look, Su Meng still understands me." ”
He wanted to leave with a hundred people in the whole process, so he naturally wanted to reduce unnecessary casualties.
The night was getting deeper.
Xia Fan obviously felt the decrease in the number of soldiers around him, and it seemed that most of them were resting.
He came to Chen Wu and Su Meng's side.
"Are you ready, tonight we will do a big job to protect the people of the city from the city and send them to the camp of the Kyoto army."
Su Meng said with a smile: "I can't wait for a long time." ”
Chen Wu moved his muscles for a moment and said, "Boss, give the order quickly, I can't wait for a long time." ”
"Okay, I'll use the mana shield to protect the people in the city in a while, and you will be responsible for dealing with the surrounding soldiers, and we will go out from the east city gate, which is relatively close to the garrison of the Kyoto army outside the city."
"Okay."
Su Meng and Chen Wu said one after another.
plan, officially began to be implemented.
Su Meng's heart moved at will, controlling the soldiers and archers around him, and killed each other.
Suddenly there was chaos in the city!
Chen Wu was on the side, released a thin line, and controlled the soldiers on the city wall, and in an instant, all the soldiers on the city wall were killed.
I have to say that the strength of these two people is extremely powerful.
Xia Fan released a mana shield, the purpose of which was to reduce some casualties.
There will be casualties under the chaos, even if it is protected by Xia Fan's mana shield, there will inevitably be some casualties.
Now, there is a big chaos in Yanzhou City.
After a while, Chen Wu and Su Meng opened the four gates of Yanzhou City!
Moreover, the soldiers on the city wall have all been dealt with by Su Meng and Chen Wu.
"Oh no! Oh no! Master Hou, it's not good! ”
The housekeeper of Pingxi Hou's Mansion shouted and came to Pingxi Hou's bedroom.
"Master Hou, Master Hou, wake up!"
Pingxihou lit the candle and opened the door.
"What's going on?"
The housekeeper took a deep breath and said, "Master Hou, Yanzhou City, the walls of Yanzhou City are all open, and the people are now fleeing!" ”
"What!?"
Pingxi Hou was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Who did this!?" ”
The butler panted and said, "It seems, it seems that the group that defeated Lin Xiu some time ago." ”
Pingxihou gritted his teeth and said, "Order to go down and send a master of the whole process to hunt down this group!" ”
Although Xia Fan and his entourage saved themselves a few days ago, on the occasion of their survival, they released the people in the city, which was undoubtedly a good thing for him.
"Xia Fan, since you let the people go, then I will let you bury me!"
Now, Yanzhou City is in turmoil, and Pingxihou is already the general trend.
