There is a way, thousands of people are in the city, and thousands of people are in the wilderness.

It was obviously impossible for a full 600,000 army to pass through Yanzhou silently and reach Henghuang City.

According to the news sent back by the spies in front, it would take at least half a month for Cui Ting's 600,000 troops to arrive in Henghuang City. It is precisely because of this that when the dense Chu character Xuanqi appeared outside the Henghuang City three days later, there was a panic and uproar in this majestic ancient city.

The commander of the Shengyang Army, Li Ru, the prince of Daxia who was over fifty years old, was ordered to take more than 100,000 Shengyang troops to deploy defenses at the head of Henghuang City.

As the only two princes of Great Xia, Li Ru's life can still be called a legend.

Thirty years ago, Li Wenjing was defeated in Dahuangcheng, bedridden, with nine sons under his knees and eight sons to take the heir.

Li Yulin became the final winner and ascended to the throne of the emperor, seven siblings, six of whom were beheaded by him outside the Dayang Palace, only Li Ru, the eldest son, was left by him, not only did not cut off the military power, but handed over the most elite Shengyang army in Great Xia to his hands.

As for the other prince, it is Xu Han's old acquaintance, Li Moding, the only one who did not participate in the succession.

......

As the current master of the Sword Pavilion, Xu Han is naturally qualified to lead many sword bearers to the top of the city to check the specific situation, and he was fortunate to meet this legendary prince of the Li family, Li Ru!

I have to say that Li Ru is indeed a very unique person.

Among the soldiers covered with blood-colored armor, this prince of the Li family, as his name suggests, wears a white Confucian shirt, standing at the head of the city, and is out of place in this solemn battlefield.

Xu Han had the heart to look at the other party, Li Ru's temples were covered with hoarfrost, his hair was combed neatly and neatly, with a wooden hairpin, flat lips and nose, and a little wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

Xu Han was not the only one who came to the city, the civil and military officials of the Great Xia Imperial Court, and even that Li Moding also came, but Li Ru was extremely indifferent to this, and did not pay attention to everyone. He always frowned and looked at the black army outside the city, and did not say a word.

Although the civil and military officials at the head of the city had the heart to say something, they seemed to be extremely afraid of this prince of the Li family, and no one dared to speak out at that time to break the silence on the face.

"General, the spies reported less than 50,000 rebels outside the city, and it seems that it is only an advance march. At this time, a soldier suddenly walked to Li Ru's side, knelt down on one knee, and said so in his mouth.

When these words came out, Li Ru did not respond, but the faces of the civil and military officials at the head of the city changed one after another, and they seemed to be a little moved.

"Hmm. Compared with their reactions, Li Ru's response was much more indifferent, he just nodded lightly, and then said: "Pass the order, all departments of the garrison will step up the arrangement of defense facilities, and you can't fight privately, and those who violate the order will be killed!"

When the soldier heard this, he naturally did not doubt him and retreated.

And the people around him didn't know why, but they didn't dare to say more. In the end, it was Li Moding who gritted his teeth, stepped forward and asked: "Brother Huang, at this moment, the rebels are rushing thousands of miles, people are sleepy and lacking, and they have not yet gathered into a general trend, so they should lead the troops to fight, thwart their edge, and promote my holy might, why does the imperial brother avoid fighting?"

This question seemed to be a doubt in the minds of everyone present, and they all looked sideways at Li Ru at this time, waiting for his answer.

"I heard that the emperor's brother has always made friends with the three sects and nine streams in the rivers and lakes, and there are also 3,000 soldiers in the house, since the emperor's brother is so worried about state affairs, why don't I open the city gate now, and let the emperor's brother lead the family soldiers to fight this rebel army to the death, how about raising my holy might?"

When Li Moding heard this, the expression on his face suddenly froze, and his face became gloomy.

The people around smelled the embarrassment of the atmosphere at this moment, even if there were also doubts like Li Moding in their hearts, they could only suppress it at this moment.

Xu Han squinted at the scene happening in front of him, and then looked sideways at the dense black armor outside the city, he smiled slightly, and turned to leave at that time.

Seeing this, Nangong Jing, who came with him, frowned, and seemed to be a little displeased, but he was unwilling to attack in front of people, and at that time he led his sword-bearers to keep up with Xu Han's departure.

......

"Why do you want to go?" After returning to Yan's mansion, Nangong Jing frowned and looked at Xu Han and asked.

Xu Han sat leisurely on his own side, took a sip of the brewed tea, then blinked, and asked with an unknown expression: "Why don't you leave?" Will Prince Li make lunch for us?"

When these words came out, Nangong Jing's face naturally became extremely ugly, but the sword-wielding people led by Nangong Zhuo couldn't help but feel funny, but they didn't dare to speak out because of Nangong Jing's "obscenity", they pouted one by one, and forced a smile, but the appearance was extremely interesting.

"The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband! The rebel soldiers are coming to the city, and we should cooperate with the Shengyang Army to defend the city gate, how can there be soldiers fighting bloody battles outside, but we can sit here and drink tea with peace of mind!"

"Since Lord Nangong has such a mind, it is really a woman who does not let her eyebrows, so why don't you take it easy. Xu Han didn't seem to hear the anger wrapped in Nangong Jing's tone, he took another sip of tea and said with a smile.

"You!" Nangong Jing suddenly couldn't contain the anger in her heart anymore, she snorted coldly, and looked sideways at the sword-wielding people beside her. "If you want to stay with the coward, stay with the coward, and if it's a man, follow me!"

After that, Nangong Jing strode out of the Yan Mansion.

Many sword-wielding people led by Nangong Zhuo, you look at me, I look at you for a while, and finally after handing Xu Han an apologetic look, they all left with Nangong Jing.

After Xu Han cleaned up the Sword Holding Pavilion, although the overall strength of the remaining sword holders has decreased by more than a notch compared to before, the remaining people are almost all Xiao Yu's cronies before. And it stands to reason that after Xiao Yu left, these cronies naturally became Nangong Jing's cronies, and between Xu Han and Nangong Jing, they also naturally chose the latter.

Xu Han was not surprised by this.

He still sat with his eyes squinted, watching the many sword-wielders leave.

It wasn't until the backs of these sword-wielding men completely disappeared into Xu Han's eyes that Ye Hongjian, who had been standing aside and watching all this, suddenly stepped forward, walked to Xu Han's side, and asked softly, "Is this really good?"

Xu Han got up and said with a faint smile: "This is the best." ”

Ye Hongjian frowned, somewhat puzzled by Xu Han's move: "Do you think that Henghuang City is in Li Ru's hands, and you can really sit back and relax."

Is it?"

Xu Han shook his head and said with a wry smile: "If you rely on one Cui Ting alone, Henghuang City will naturally be fine, but the Senluo Hall behind him... No one dares to underestimate it..."

"That..."Ye Hongjian became more and more puzzled, there is a way that there are eggs under this nest, since he decided to stay in Henghuang City, then he should advance and retreat with him, so standing by and watching is not Ye Hongjian's please, nor should it be the Xu Han she knows.

As if seeing Ye Hongjian's doubts, Xu Han smiled faintly, he stood up, walked lightly to the gate of the mansion, and then he looked up at the sky in the direction of the city gate, and said: "This place is more dangerous than there, why let them stay?"
