The garrison envoy of Huangshi City had already received the order, and when he heard Xiao Wuchang and his party come to the pass, they went out of the city to greet them in person, but when they saw that there were only less than 100 people in the group, their complexions changed to be difficult to see.

"The garrison envoy of Yellowstone City, Liu Yang, see Lord Xiao. ”

Xiao Wuchang turned over and dismounted, helped Liu Yang up, and said, "Liu Shoubei, long admiration, long admiration, I hope you will help you in the future." ”

Liu Yang said, "Lord Xiao, you are tired, come to the city to rest, I have already asked people to prepare a banquet to wash the dust of your lordship." As he spoke, he also looked in the direction of Gu Qiuyu and his party from time to time.

"There's no need for a banquet, let's discuss it in the lobby. Xiao Wuchang nodded, he didn't have a preference for this kind of thing, and bluntly refused the invitation.

Liu Yang promised, his face became a little embarrassed, and he led his own soldiers to the government office in the city.

Gu Qiuyu and He Hua rode at the back of the crowd and said with a smile, "Xiaohua, this Xiao joins the army so much that Liu Yang doesn't give face, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do things in the future." ”

Through a period of contact, the relationship between the two became familiar, and they didn't care about anything when they spoke, and when there was no one on weekdays, Gu Qiuyu called her Xiaohua, because He Hua's age was really not as old as Gu Qiuyu.

"Your Excellency, please respect yourself. ”

He Hua glanced at Gu Qiuyu, she usually has a calm personality, almost all of her face is expressionless, but she still has a little expression for Gu Qiuyu, who is handsome and extraordinary, but she doesn't like Gu Qiuyu's smile.

Everyone went to the palace of the garrison envoy in the city, Xiao Wuchang walked in with Gu Qiuyu and He Hua, and the people of the Heavenly Eagle Guard were arranged to rest in the barracks.

In the palace, Xiao Wuchang had just sat down, and then asked Liu Yang, "Liu Shoubei, how many soldiers are there in this Yellowstone City now?"

"Lord Hui, the real soldiers are only 1,000, and if you count the militia, there should be about 2,000 people. ”

Xiao Wuchang nodded, and asked again, "How is Mingguo's situation now?"

Liu Yang replied, "Two days ago, the spies came to report that Mingguo had recruited 20,000 soldiers and were assembling near Mangshan, and it seemed that there were more and more signs. ”

When Gu Qiuyu heard this, he thought about the comparison between the two sides, looked at Xiao Wuchang on the seat, and saw that his expression was calm, and there was no trace of worry.

Liu Yang stood below, his face was heavy, and he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.

"Say it. Xiao Wuchang noticed Liu Yang's different color and said calmly.

"My lord, I don't know how many soldiers and horses you brought with you this time......

"Your Majesty gave me 10,000 iron horses, and I will arrive in two days, and then there will be some government soldiers from Chenzhou, I don't know how much, it will take about five days to arrive here. ”

Gu Qiuyu was stunned, he didn't know why Xiao Wuchang said that five thousand people were ten thousand.

When Liu Yang heard this, he was very dissatisfied, as the commander of an army, he didn't know how many soldiers he had, which was really ridiculous.

In fact, Xiao Wuchang really didn't know how many soldiers and horses would come to Chenzhou, the management of the lower levels of Shiguo was chaotic, and the soldiers and civilians in his hand were also a few years ago, and his data was already inaccurate, and he didn't care too much, what he valued was the five thousand men and horses he brought.

After asking some specific details in the city, Xiao Wuchang took Gu Qiuyu and the others to the county government of Huangshi City again, and talked with the county officials and the chief bookkeeper about money and food.

At night, Gu Qiuyu sat in the room and communicated with the Seven Star Sword with his internal qi, and the flickering candlelight shone on his delicate cheeks, which looked a little vicissitudes.

At this time, he felt a breath approaching, and as soon as he withdrew his internal qi, the door of the room was opened, and He Hua's beautiful figure appeared in the room, and at that moment, the candle flame was a little dim.

He Hua's figure is not very tall, and her skin is not as fair as Liu Yiyue, but her facial features are very exquisite, as if carved by heaven, without a single flaw.

Gu Qiuyu looked at He Hua's beautiful cheeks and sighed, "Absolutely beautiful, a smile is overwhelming." ”

He Hua ignored Gu Qiuyu's gaze, came directly to the table and sat down, stroked the hair on her forehead, and said nothing.

"Being in a foreign country, the night is long, can you be lonely in your heart?" Gu Qiuyu laughed, for some reason, he liked to see this woman's slightly angry appearance.

After He Hua heard this, her willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and she said, "My lord, please respect yourself!" As she spoke, a cold aura came out of her body.

Seeing this, Gu Qiuyu smiled, and continued to look down at the book, he dared to tease He Hua, the name of the sister of the hall master of the Thunder Fire Hall is not fake, and he can control the life and death of these tens of thousands of people in Huazhou.

And He Hua was also surprised at this time, she didn't know what the reason was, Gu Qiuyu's ridiculous words made her angry, the exercises she practiced were the most calm, almost to be like a stop in the heart, and there could be no emotional fluctuations. If there is someone who disturbs his state of mind, kill it, what is there to think, just entering this house, there is an uncomfortable feeling, looking at Gu Qiuyu, it is very kind.

The room became silent, Gu Qiuyu knew that He Hua came late at night not to make him laugh, but to have a business, and now that the person did not come, the two had to wait quietly.

When it was ugly, there was a gentle knock on the door from outside the house, and the two people who were a little asleep were shocked, and then a man in black appeared in front of the two, and said with a respectful expression, "Imperial Commander, Commander He, the matter that you two handed over to us has been completed." ”

Gu Qiuyu nodded and said, "Let's talk about how many "friends" there are in this Yellowstone City." ”

Before entering the city, Xiao Wuchang gave Gu Qiuyu a secret order, asking Gu Qiuyu to select a few people who listened to the rain pavilion to take the first step, go to Huangshi City to inquire about the news, and investigate the secret agents of Mingguo in the city.

"Lord Hui, in this Yellowstone City, there are indeed many secret agents of the Ming Kingdom, and they have also discovered your entry into the city today, but these people are meticulous, and they are all from the Genting Palace, and their subordinates are incompetent, so they can't find out their exact number. ”

Gu Qiuyu nodded, he didn't mean to blame, although he was the leader of the Sky Eagle Guard, Gu Qiuyu knew that many of these martial artists under him didn't know him, but they just respected him as Lin Fenghuo's nephew, and if he wanted to gain a foothold, he had to make his own achievements.

"What else?" asked Gu Qiuyu.

The man replied, "My subordinates have found out in the past two days that the garrison of Yellowstone City has made Liu Yang have contact with Mingguo. ”

Gu Qiuyu looked sideways and said, "Oh, the dignified garrison envoys have all begun to plan the way back? It's no wonder, after all, it's still their own lives that matter." ”

"Kill him?" He Hua sat on the side, her tone cold, and her face could not be seen clearly by the faint candlelight.

"No, it's inconvenient for us not to pursue this kind of matter now, and if we kill him, I'm afraid that other generals in the city will not accept it. ”

Afterwards, Gu Qiuyu motioned for the people who listened to the rain pavilion to go down to rest, holding his cheek in his hand, looking at the candle flame on the table with his eyes wandering, knowing in his heart why Xiao Wuchang lied during the day.

Even Tingyu Pavilion didn't find out the reality of the secret agents in the city, Gu Qiuyu valued the strength of the Yunding Hall a little bit in his heart, and he was also thinking about a strategy in his heart.

"These spies have to be dealt with as soon as possible. Gu Qiuyu said in his heart.

He also has a purpose in doing this, that is, to rely on this matter to gain a foothold in the Sky Eagle Guard, after all, he is young, and all the warriors under him are arrogant, and they are secretly questioning him.

He Hua saw Gu Qiuyu pondering, so she got up and retired, although she was the deputy commander and assisted Gu Qiuyu on the side, but after half a month of contact, she knew that she didn't have to worry about these things.

At dawn on the second day, Gu Qiuyu came to Xiao Wuchang's room, and the two discussed in the room for a long time, and then Gu Qiuyu left, and came to He Hua's room, and it didn't take long for the two to go out of the city, and they didn't know where they went.

At noon, Xiao Wuchang asked Liu Yang to accompany him to inspect the city defense, followed only by the two guards of the Sky Eagle Guard.

After inspecting several important garrisons in the city, both the soldiers and the equipment on the city wall were very sophisticated, Xiao Wuchang's expression was very satisfied, and his praise for Liu Yang continued, and Liu Yang also followed aside, constantly patting his ass.

At this time, the sky was already dark, Liu Yang suggested going to one of the best restaurants in the city to eat, Xiao Wuchang began to refuse, but he couldn't accept Liu Yang's repeated invitations, and he was really hungry, so he had to agree to come down and come to a restaurant called Honglou.

When the owner of the restaurant saw Liu Yang coming here, he hurriedly prepared a private room, and then slowly brought up a table of dishes.

Liu Yang didn't think so, and toasted again and again.

The food in this Honglou is delicious, and the wine is also an old wine, and after a while, Xiao Wuchang was half drunk, and then looked at Liu Yang, his eyes were still clear, and he was still toasting.

At this time, Liu Yang's guards came to Liu Yang's ear and whispered, and after Liu Yang heard it, he nodded.

After drinking for a while, the group left, Xiao Wuchang was already drunk and hazy at this time, drowsy, and barely able to stand, so he had to be carried by two Sky Eagle guards to walk.

The sky was already dark, a few clouds covered the moonlight, the street seemed particularly quiet, a gust of night wind blew Xiao Wuchang's spirit up, the wine had already woken up for the most part, he looked behind him, Liu Yang's figure did not know where to go, and there was only the Sky Eagle Guard supporting him.

Thoughtful, he suddenly felt bad, and just wanted to remind everyone around him, but only heard a few arrows breaking through the air. Before he could react, one of the Aquila guards was pierced through his chest and slowly fell to the ground.

At this time, in the surrounding buildings, many figures appeared on the roofs, each holding a sharp weapon, and the murderous aura was permeated.

Xiao Wuchang knew that someone was here to rob and kill him, and apart from the Genting Palace, he couldn't think of anyone else who would be so bold, and this place was half a city away from the residence of the Heavenly Eagle Guard, and it was impossible to ask for help.

"Who's coming!" Seeing this, another Aquila guard knew in his heart that it would be difficult to escape today, so he had to step forward to buy time, hoping that the defenders in the city would notice.

Xiao Wuchang looked around, he knew that now in this area, not to mention the defenders, even the husband might have been transferred away.

No one of the surrounding figures stepped forward to speak, raised the short crossbow in his hand and shot at the two of them, Xiao Wu saw this, pulled up the Sky Eagle Guard on the side, turned around and fled, although there are many people in this Genting Palace, it is impossible to close the entire street, as long as you escape from this area, then you will be saved today.

As soon as he ran a few steps, a group of men with weapons appeared in front of him, sealing off the street, and the pursuers behind him had already arrived.

The two are already in a desperate situation.

"Xiao joins the army, tell me what you know about the military strength of Shi Guo, and I can give you a good time!" In the shadow, a person slowly walked out, this person had white hair and white beard, was tall, and held a long sword across his chest.

"Die!" Seeing the leader from the other side coming out, the Eagle Guard jumped up in a few steps, got up and kicked the man in the head, ready to capture the thief and capture the king first.

The man snorted coldly, and the long sword in his hand stabbed out like lightning. Seeing this, the Aquila guard gathered his true qi on his leg and struck it at the long sword.

Hearing the sound of "ding!", the Heavenly Eagle Guard was shocked back a few steps, stabilized his body, shouted loudly, and attacked again.

This Heavenly Eagle Guard's martial arts are also extremely high, and his internal qi has been cultivated, but the old man is even more powerful, and with a backhand sword, he shook the Heavenly Eagle Guard back and landed beside Xiao Wuchang.

This person was also unconvinced, and wanted to step forward, but was pulled by Xiao Wuchang.

"You're no match for him. ”

When the old man heard this, he laughed and said, "Xiao is still familiar with the army, tell me what you know, I can consider not killing you." ”

Xiao Wuchang looked around with a gloomy face, and didn't speak, the old man thought that he was observing the direction of the escape, so he smiled and said, "Don't bother to make effort, all the Genting Hall disciples in this city have been dispatched today, and this area has long been impassable, I advise you to say it quickly, lest I have to do it myself, and it will look ugly at that time." ”

When Xiao Wuchang heard the old man's words, his expression changed, and he suddenly laughed heartily, and slowly said two words, "Dream!"

The old man didn't pay attention to the change in Xiao Wuchang's complexion, only hearing that Xiao Wuchang was still stubbornly resisting there, he couldn't help but feel angry, and waved his big hand, "Shang, kill him for me!" He was also afraid of long nights and dreams, so he ordered his subordinates to rush up.

I just listened, the sound of crossbow arrows behind him continued, Xiao Wuchang and the people of the Sky Eagle Guard hurriedly dodged, and as soon as they dodged the crossbow arrows, no less than five people around them had already killed in front of them, and they raised their swords and slashed.

At this moment, a cool breeze blew, and a gorgeous figure appeared in front of Xiao Wuchang, holding a short sword, and stabbed the five people to the ground in a few moves.

At the same time, a group of figures appeared on the periphery of the people of the Yunding Palace, but surrounded the people of the Yunding Palace, and a figure appeared on the building on the side, and said with a smile, "Everyone in the Yunding Palace, this night is cold, I don't know if I can move elsewhere, in the prison of this Yellowstone City, I have reserved a place for you to live." ”
