Chapter Seventy-Three: Self-Inflicted Consequences

Lin Haotian snorted coldly, held up the Xuantie Han Halberd, and blocked it in front of him.

"Changdang!"

After a crisp sound, Du Yu was shocked and took a few steps back.

Lin Haotian shouted: "Du Yu, put down your weapons, I promise not to kill you!"

Du Yu didn't seem to hear what he was saying, and when he stabilized his figure, he screamed, stepped forward, and struck another heavy blow.

Lin Haotian had no choice but to block it again.

"Changdang!"

There was another crisp sound, and this time, Du Yu was shocked farther away, his legs were weak, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks.

Lin Haotian didn't give Du Yu any room to struggle, he stepped forward, his arm probed forward, only to hear the sound of 'pounce', and the Xuantie Han Halberd pierced deeply into Du Yu's lower abdomen.

The latter's body stiffened visibly, and he immediately fell to the ground with a dull sound.

Lin ...... Lin Haotian...... Lao Tzu....Lao Tzu is a ghost...... I won't let you go......" With blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, Du Yu said intermittently.

"Hehe, I'm not afraid if you're alive, how can I be afraid of your ghost?"

"Flutter!"

It was another clean and neat knife, which pierced through Du Yu's chest fiercely, and the person who wielded the knife was Zhang Bufan, who rushed into the house at some point!

This time, Du Yu finally couldn't hold on any longer, and crawled forward two or three meters away, and then there was no movement, leaving only a shocking blood mark on the ground behind him.

Zhang Bufan stepped forward, squatted down, tested Du Yu's snort with his hand, and said casually: "General Lin, this thief has been killed." ”

Looking down at Du Yu's body, Lin Haotian sighed faintly and said, "I promised Lu Kai not to kill this person, but now that Du Yu is dead, I will bury him according to the general's gift." ”

"Yes!" Zhang Bufan hurriedly replied.

Zhang Bufan seems to be a rough person, but he is actually an understanding person. Now that Du Yu is dead, the military power in this Shuangfeng City will definitely fall into the hands of Lin Haotian and Yu Yan, and he used to be Du Yu's old general, whether he can be tolerated by the two is still unknown, the reason why he was in a hurry to make up for Du Yu just now was also to take the opportunity to show Lin Haotian his intentions.

Just as Zhang Bufan was still pondering, there was a sudden muffled sound of "plopping" in front of him, he was startled, and hurriedly looked up,

Looking at this, Zhang Bufan was happy.

It turned out that at some point, Hou Xu had already knelt down in front of Lin Haotian.

Lin Haotian glanced at the spineless Hou Xu with a cold gaze, and said continuously: "Oh, what is the Hou City Lord doing? Hurry up, hurry up!" Although he said so, his body didn't move.

Hearing Lin Haotian say this, Hou Xu was even more uneasy, first touched his eyes with his sleeve, and then cried with a handful of snot and tears: "I was ignorant, and I was confused by Du Yu, a dog thief, so I strayed into the thief ship, and now I have woken up, and I hope that General Lin will not remember the villain and spare my dog's life." ”

Lin Haotian Tiger narrowed his eyes slightly, bent down, and smiled softly: "What is the fault of City Lord Hou?"

"Too much! too much!" Hou Xu replied incoherently.

"In that case, what's the use of leaving you?" As he spoke, Lin Haotian's face changed suddenly, and he shouted: "Come on, drag this thief out and behead it for public display!"

"What?!" Hearing him say this, Hou Xu was anxious, and shouted at Lin Haotian: "General Lin, I'm the city lord of Twin Peaks, you can't do this!

No one sympathized with him, and several soldiers strode forward, grabbed his arm, and forcibly dragged him out.

"Lin Haotian, I am an official of the imperial court, you have no right to do this-"

Listening to Hou Xu's voice gradually disappearing in his ears, Lin Haotian was also secretly relieved, now that Du Yu and Hou Xu have been resolved, the next thing to do is to receive the military power in Du Yu's hands as soon as possible, otherwise, once someone takes the opportunity to make trouble, the consequences will be unimaginable.

didn't stop long, leaving a few people to clean up the scene, Lin Haotian and Zhang Bufan continued to lead the way back to the barracks.

On the other side, Lu Kai and Songping also received the news of Lin Haotian's return to the city, and the two were afraid of startling the snake, although they still stayed in place to rectify the troops and horses according to Du Yu's order, secretly, they had already leaked the news to Yu Yan.

Just in case, Matsudaira also wrote a letter on Du Yu's order, summoning all the generals who were close to Du Yu and wanting to get rid of them all together.

Matsudaira knew very well that if he wanted to take his place after Du Yu's death, he had to get the support of enough people, and these people were all Du Yu's diehards, so how could they help him? However, to Matsudaira's surprise, an invisible knife was already on his neck......

Matsudaira acted quickly, and the news was sealed to death, so no rumors leaked out, so all the generals who received the news were convinced of this.

It didn't take long for some of Du Yu's advisors and henchmen to arrive one after another, and as soon as they came over, before they could figure out what was going on, they were captured by the guards who were ambushed around.

"Mr. Song, what are you going to do with them?" Outside the Chinese army's tent, watching the generals come and be detained one by one, Lu Kai asked with a not very good-looking face.

Many of the generals who are currently being detained have a close relationship with him, and Lu Kai certainly doesn't want them to be killed by Matsudaira.

Matsudaira smiled slightly, and said thoughtfully: "Let's just wait and see what happens, and when General Lin's side is all settled, he will come to decide." ”

"That's all there is to it. Lu Kai sighed heavily, in his heart, he didn't have a good impression of Matsudaira as a person, but at this time, there was no other way than to ask him.

Listening to Lu Kai's indifferent words, Matsudaira's heart sank suddenly, and he asked cautiously: "General Lu, in your opinion, after Du Yu steps down, who should take over his position?"

Lu Kai glanced at him inexplicably and said, "This imperial court will naturally have a notice, how can I know?"

Preferably so!

The chill on Matsudaira's face swept away, and he was about to say something more, but he saw a bloodied guard running towards them from a distance.

Matsudaira pointed at the guards and hurriedly said, "General Lu, look!"

Lu Kai also noticed the front, looked at the person with a suspicious face, and shouted: "The person in front is zhanzhu!"

This sound was like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, and the guard who was running wildly looked at the source of the sound, and when he saw the person who spoke clearly, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he knelt down in front of Lu Kai with a rolling belt, and said with a cry: "Lu ...... General Lu, I've found you!"

Lu Kai pointed at the person with a puzzled expression: "Are you?"

The guard wiped the blood on his face with his hand indiscriminately, and hurriedly said, "The little General Naidu is close to the guard." ”

"Oh?" At this moment, not only Lu Kai, but even Matsudaira on the side became nervous, and after the two glanced at each other, Lu Kai said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"

"Tonight, General Du originally held a banquet in Yiqing Restaurant, but who knew that Zhang Bufan suddenly led a large number of people into the building halfway, and the enemy was outnumbered, and General Du couldn't stand it, so he specially ordered the little one to come and report the news, so that the general would rush to the rescue immediately!"

Without waiting for Lu Kai to speak, Matsudaira preemptively asked, "How is Du Yu now?"

The guards didn't notice the change in Matsudaira's address to Du Yu, and replied, "When I came, the thieves had already rushed into the first floor, and the current situation is unknown. After speaking, he hurriedly added: "Without further ado, I hope the general will go to the rescue as soon as possible!"

"Oh!" Without confirming Du Yu's death, Matsudaira looked a little disappointed, casually summoned a soldier, and said, "Send this brother down to rest first!"

"Yes!" the sergeant obeyed and left with the guard.

After the two walked away, Lu Kai approached Matsudaira and whispered, "Mr. Matsu, do we need to go over and have a look?"

"Hehe......" Matsudaira smiled weirdly: "No need, if I didn't expect, Lin Haotian and they were on their way here." ”
