Chapter 216: Please enter the urn
As soon as he turned around, there was a sudden tingling pain on his cheek, and Gan Long's right foot was retracted, and I have to say that the warning left by Hongyan did work.
The children of ordinary families will compete for favor, not to mention the emperor's family? Hongyan has a total of nine sons, and Gan Long is the third, but there is no essential difference between the third and the ninth, because since ancient times, the monarch first supported the heir and then the elder.
In order to change his status, when he was just a six- or seven-year-old child, Gan Long took the initiative to invite Ying to infiltrate the enemy.
Ten years of sharpening a sword, just to change his fate, when Hongyan issued a military order to attack the Manyue Kingdom, Gan Long seemed to see a bright future.
After the start of the national war, the army of Manyue Kingdom was defeated and retreated, and everything developed in the direction expected by Ganlong, originally thought that the overall situation was under control, but people were not as good as heaven, and at the critical moment, he made a journey to bite the gold, which not only made his efforts come to naught, but also killed his imperial dream, a prince who fell out of favor because of the failure of the mission, will not have a bright future.
Gan Long subconsciously touched his left eye, and his originally handsome face looked a little hideous because of the gloom and sword marks. He doesn't care about his appearance, if he can get Hongyan's favor back, he will not hesitate to be completely disfigured.
But... No, but. Gan Long recorded all this on Zhang Mochen.
"Little bastard, it's cheaper to poison you with an arrow. ”
Although the arrow that day did not succeed in killing Xie Zong, Zhang Mochen's arm was scratched by Gan Long, but he could see it clearly, he knew how powerful the poison on the arrow was, thinking of this, the hatred on his face finally weakened slightly.
"Forget it. General Ye, tell everyone to put up the straw man, and then all of them move through the north gate, and tell everyone not to make a sound, once Qiu Mo sends a signal, we will drive straight in, and we must occupy the middle gate and the south gate before the father and emperor arrive. ”
The sudden change in Gan Long's attitude made General Ye slightly stunned, but he quickly clenched his fists again and turned around to go.
After a while, one by one, the scarecrows were erected, looking like real people in the dark, and those real soldiers were like poisonous snakes crawling towards the north gate in the dense grass under the leadership of Qiu Mo and General Ye Lao.
There is still an hour or so before the agreed time, and a bush with a wide view was chosen, Gan Long and General Ye leaned over to the ground, especially Gan Long, whose cold eyes were staring at every move on the city, the nine sons competed for favor, he had lost the opportunity, but he did not give up, and now was a good opportunity to reverse the defeat.
After another ten minutes, Gan Long, who was motionless, suddenly shook his body and clenched his fists together, because in a corner of the city, a torch slowly circled three times.
The cold air burst out in his eyes, he got up from the ground and knelt on one knee, Gan Long was about to rush over with a wave of his arm, but General Ye's voice sounded in time.
"Third son, the appointed time has not yet arrived, I'm afraid of fraud!"
"The battle situation is changing rapidly, how can we agree to tie it up? If there is a code for example, don't miss the fighter. Gan Long's tone was a little angry.
"Third prince, this is not child's play, don't act recklessly!" In the face of Gan Long's angry gaze, General Ye hurriedly dissuaded.
"Who is the main general here now?" Gan Long asked coldly.
"Dang, of course it's the third son!" Old General Ye frowned and replied.
"Since you know that I am the main general, do you want to disobey the general's order?" Gan Long was unforgiving, his voice from low to high, and his tone from soft to hard.
"I ......" Seeing that Gan Long pressed himself with the general's order, General Ye Lao couldn't refute it for a while, and soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, even if the order is wrong.
Just when the two were at a stalemate, the iron door in the distance creaked and was slowly opened, Gan Long waved again, and in the next second, he rushed out like a cheetah first, but when he passed by General Ye, he left a cold word.
"When the war is over, unload your armor and return to the field, and return to your hometown. ”
Gan Long must be the main general, and after seeing him rush out, the soldiers of the Flowing Fire Country suddenly jumped out. General Ye sighed urgently and walked away with his knife, although the former fell out of favor, but if something happened to his eyelids, he still had the luxury of returning home?
Gan Long galloped all the way, followed by 10,000 deadly soldiers, and the open north gate was now a sheepfold with an open gate in their eyes, and they themselves were the hungry wolves with green eyes.
The killing shout shook the sky, the old general Ye in the crowd frowned and raised his eyes, except for some panicked stragglers on the head of the city, there was no other movement, it stands to reason that the city gate was attacked, Man Yueguo would not be captured with his hands, he would definitely resist desperately, the abnormality of the matter made him think that there was fraud in it, but just wanted to pull Gan Long, who had already entered the city gate with nearly half of the people.
"Third son, third son, where is your past cleverness!"
Old General Ye sighed, fluttered the knife in his hand, and urged the people behind him to speed up.
has entered the game, General Ye Lao has no choice but to pay for this old life to protect Ganlong's safety. Now withdrawing the army is death, and entering the city is also death, rather than death, it is better to choose the latter, at least to leave the name of loyalty.
Like dumplings, 10,000 people flocked in, and when the last person entered the north gate, the heavy iron gate suddenly rumbled shut, and Ganlong, who was the first to enter the city, was completely enveloped in panic at this time, he looked at the four fields urgently, except for the high circular wall, there was no way out, and his heart fell into the same deathly darkness as this day.
Not only Gan Long, but everyone was shocked. The high platform is low in the center of the surrounding platform, and there is no way to escape, let alone find cover, not even a single straw has such terrain, if they fire a volley of arrows, they will definitely be fired by the range hornet's nest.
In a predicament, the army's heart was in turmoil, and Ganlong's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, but it was all cold sweat.
"Qiu Mo, you old dog, this son must break your body into pieces. ”
With his black hair scattered and disheveled, Gan Long was terrified and resentful to the extreme, but he didn't know that the old dog in his mouth had already gone to Huangquan Road.
"Third prince, quickly order the withdrawal of the army the same way!" "The veteran is a veteran after all, and the ability to stay in danger is not something that ordinary people can have, General Ye quickly ran to Gan Long's side, and shouted loudly while protecting the latter.
Hongyan chose Gan Long to lurk in Manyue Country not only because the latter recommended himself. Among the nine sons, Gan Long is second to none in terms of talent and strategy, and on weekdays, Gan Long will definitely not fall into Zhang Mochen's trap, however, people are not sages after all, and he is a little eager to make meritorious contributions.
"Withdraw, withdraw. Regaining his senses, Gan Long muttered twice, then waved his arm and shouted, "All the soldiers retreat the same way!"
