Remember [Love Go] in a second, and provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"Actually, you don't have to have a reason to do a lot of things. Shangguan Xiu replied speciously.
Tang Wanyun blinked, not understanding the meaning of his words, she asked curiously: "If you knew that you would be sent to Zhenjun by Your Majesty in the future, would you still save Your Majesty at that time?"
"I don't know. Shangguan Xiu replied simply. He was too lazy to think about what had already passed, about such hypothetical questions. He changed his words and asked, "Is Your Majesty okay now?"
Tang Wanyun shrugged, she didn't know how to evaluate this good or bad. She said faintly: "When you stand on the flat ground, the responsibility you carry is only a small point, when you walk up a step, although you stand high, but the responsibility will become greater, when you stand on the top of the top, even if you can see the mountains at a glance, but the responsibility is to resist a country." The more rights you get, the greater the responsibilities, the less freedom you have, and the fact that you can really make decisions is very few, and who can say whether this is good or bad?"
She glanced at Shangguan Xiu with a smile, didn't say anything, and walked out.
Her words made Shangguan Xiu feel a lot and have a personal experience. In the past, when he was alone, there was no responsibility and no pressure, but now, there are more and more brothers, and his power is getting bigger and bigger, and gradually, he has begun to feel the pressure on himself. Every decision he makes is no longer just about himself, but about the thousands of people around him.
The next day, early in the morning, Shangguan Xiu led the county army of Jinchuan County with 6,000 people, drove out of Tashan City and marched south in the direction of Jincheng.
Because of the siege war this time, the Jinchuan army carried a lot of baggage, no less than 20 stone throwers alone, in addition to large equipment such as towers and chariots for siege.
Carrying so much baggage, the speed of the march naturally could not be fast. The Jinchuan army walked for two days before arriving in the area of Heyunling.
In Zhenxi, there are not many places where trees grow, and Heyunling is one of them. The trees here are dense, most of them are locust trees, the branches are luxuriant, green and verdant, in Zhenxi, Heyunling is like an oasis in a barren desert.
Coming here in person, Shangguan Xiu was not surprised by the ambushes of the White Shirt Army, the Tashan Army, and the County Army. There are so many trees here, it is indeed suitable for ambush, and it is extremely difficult to detect.
Walking to Heyunling, Li Qiu, Chang Feng and others, who had suffered a big loss here before, all tensed their nerves, and Luo Ren also sent scouts to the front to investigate the enemy's situation.
The scouts ran out one by one, and returned with the same news that they brought back, and no enemy situation or ambush was found in front of them.
Even so, the soldiers of the whole army still raised their hearts to their throats, and it was not until the army successfully passed through Heyunling that people couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, and their tense nerves relaxed. As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope.
Jincheng, an important town at the junction of Zhangshui County and Jinchuan County, is also a transportation hub connecting the two counties. The walls of Jincheng are regular three zhang three, that is, between ten and twelve meters, four to five meters wide, and the structure is made of stone and earth.
Compared with the inland city, Jincheng is also a border city, the city defense is much more perfect than the inland town, in addition to the city wall, there is also a trench more than three meters deep outside the city, for the besieging side, the trench will cause huge resistance to the siege, at least the role of the tower should be cut in half.
The Jinchuan army began to set up camp about three miles from Jincheng. After settling down the camp, Shangguan Xiu ordered troops to fight.
The 5,000 Jinchuan army drove out of the camp and stopped a mile in front of the north gate of Jincheng. Shangguan Xiu raised his eyes to look at the Jin City in front of him, the city wall was towering, and the banners on the city were waving, and the rebel soldiers were standing.
Shangguan Xiu looked around for a moment and asked the generals around him, "Which brother is willing to take the lead?"
As soon as his words fell, Chang Feng urged him to step forward, intervened in the salute, and said: "My lord, the villain is willing to take the lead, make up for the merits, and ask the adults to complete it!"
Shangguan Xiu gently stroked the silver hair on his chest, pondered for a moment, and said, "General Chang, be more careful. ”
"Lord Xie!" Chang Feng responded, rode his horse and galloped out, a hundred steps away from Jincheng, he reined in his war horse, pointed to the head of Jincheng City, and shouted loudly: "Listen to the people of Feihua Pavilion, don't be a shrunken turtle in the city, come out and fight with me!"
Chang Feng scolded in front of the city, not for a long time, the city gate of Jincheng opened, and more than 500 rebels rushed out of the city, headed by one person, wearing armor and armor, looking at the face, in his early thirties, he held a spear, urged the horse to rush to Chang Feng's front, after stopping the war, looked Chang Feng up and down, the corners of his mouth raised, hummed out a laugh, and said: "The defeated generals are still the face to call the battle?"
This great man is one of the protectors of the Flying Flower Pavilion, Wan Quan. Chang Feng and Wan Quan are old acquaintances, not only do they know each other, but they have also fought several battles, and they know each other well. 【Love Go】
As the so-called enemies met, their eyes were red, and when they saw that the person who came was Wanquan, Chang Feng roared angrily, rushed over with a knife, and fought with Wanquan to one place.
The cultivation of the two of them is almost the same, and the Lingwu is also inferior, fighting together, it is difficult to solve, and the fight is a group.
At the beginning, Shangguan Xiu and the others could still watch the battle seriously, but after the two fought for thirty rounds, they were still the same, and they couldn't tell who was strong and who was weak, and everyone's faces showed impatience.
Tang Wanyun yawned even more, as if talking to herself, and seemed to say to Shangguan Xiu: "If you continue to fight like this, it is estimated that it will be difficult for the two of them to win or lose if they fight all day." ”
Shangguan Xiu frowned secretly, although Tang Wanyun's words were unpleasant, what she said was also the truth. He turned his head sideways and shouted, "Mingjin, recruit Changfeng back!"
With his order, the sound of gold rang out in the camp of the Jinchuan army.
If the drum is beaten, it will advance, and if the gold is sounded, it will retreat, which is the unchanging military common sense through the ages.
But Chang Feng, who was already red-eyed, showed no sign of retreating, and was still fighting with Wanquan. The corners of Tang Wanyun's mouth raised, and she sneered, this is Shangguan Xiu's subordinates, Ming Jin does not retreat, he is disobeying orders, how can such a person who does not obey orders continue to stay in the army?
Shangguan Xiu's face sank, and he turned his head sideways and said, "Xiao Jue!"
"The subordinates are here!"
"Replace Chang Feng and go into battle!"
"Obey!" Xiao Jue agreed, urging the horse to rush out of his camp and go straight to the battlefield ahead. When he approached the two of them, he shouted in a deep voice: "Chang Feng, didn't you hear the sound of Mingjin? Immediately withdraw to the main formation!"
"I haven't decided to win or lose yet!" Chang Feng shouted without looking back as he waved the spirit knife in his hand.
"If you dare to disobey the order again, you will be punished by military law!" Xiao Jue shouted sharply.
Hearing this, Chang Feng didn't dare to fight anymore, he shook his knife and turned his horse back. Wan Quan, who was hitting him in the heart, was willing to let him go, the latter laughed loudly and chased Chang Feng with a gun.
Chang Feng is pulling the horse back, the speed is slower, and Wan Quan is riding the horse forward, the speed is much faster. In an instant, he had chased Chang Feng's back, and a shot was about to stab out, when suddenly, he heard a swishing sound of breaking wind from his side.
Wan Quan secretly said that it was not good, he hurriedly flicked the spear that had been stabbed out to the side, and there was a crisp sound in the ear chakra, and a spirit arrow flying towards him was picked up and flew into the air. Wan Quan hurriedly reined in his horse, turned his head to look at Xiao Jue, and asked, "Who is it?"
"Jin Chuan Army, Xiao Jue!" Xiao Jue let go of Chang Feng, who was retreating, and urged the horse to rush to Wan Quan's approach, the saber was unsheathed, and at the same time he slashed out, the saber was spiritualized, and he took Wan Quan's neck. Secretly said a quick knife, Wan Quan didn't dare to be careless, and stood up to parry.
When the spirit knife slammed into the spirit spear, a piercing crisp sound erupted from the scene. Wan Quan's hands were numb from the shock, and he looked at Xiao Jue in surprise, this person has so much strength!
He roared and stabbed Xiao Jue in the chest with his gun. He stabbed out with this shot, but did not stab Xiao Jue, only stabbed a cloud of black mist.
Looking at the saddle again, where is Xiao Jue's figure?
It's not good, the other party is a secret cultivator! He realized that something was wrong, and at the same time, he also heard the evil wind behind it.
Wan Quan let out a shout that came well, and he held the gun in both hands and crossed it over his head. There was another crisp sound, and a knife from his back was parried by the spear.
It's just that he blocked the knife above Xiao Jue, but he failed to block Xiao Jue's kick below. The latter kicked on Wan Quan's back, and with a crisp snap, Wan Quan, who was sitting on the war horse, flew forward like a cannonball shooting out of the muzzle.
Poof!
Wan Quan fell heavily on the ground three meters away, and then looked at the war horse he was riding, there was a dark spirit cultivator covered in black spirit armor standing on the horse's hips, was that not Xiao Jue or who?
Xiao Jue stood on horseback, put away the spirit knife, took off the spirit bow he was carrying behind his back, twisted the bow and set the arrow, aimed at Wan Quan, who was still lying on the ground, and shot an arrow with all his might.
Whoosh! The spirit arrow broke through the wind, cut a black ray in the air, and went straight to Wanquan. The latter broke out in a cold sweat and didn't have time to get up from the ground, so he sat on the ground and waved his gun to parry.
He thought that he could block the opponent's arrow, but at the moment when the spirit spear was about to touch the spirit arrow, the spirit arrow suddenly shifted and flew upward.
Wan Quan had a missed shot, and the spiritual arrow shot straight at his front door. Wan Quan was shocked and hurriedly leaned back. There was a crisp sound in the ear chakra, and the spirit arrow flew towards his forehead, shattering a large piece of the spirit armor on his face.
Although he was lucky enough to escape, Wan Quan was also frightened by Xiao Jue's arrow.
He screamed and got up from the ground, half of his face covered in blood, roared, and swung his spear to unleash the water-based skill Ice Pick Thorn at Xiao Jue. The icicles that flew out had not yet reached Xiao Jue's approach, and the latter's figure had already disappeared out of thin air.
When he reappeared, the person was already in the shadow behind Wan Quan, and the spirit bow in his hand swept horizontally and smashed Wan Quan's waist. The spirit bow has been spiritualized, and if it is really hit, the spirit armor on Wan Quan's body will not be able to withstand it at all, and the lumbar vertebrae may be broken.
