Rumble!

This is an unimaginable picture, the first time in a hundred years that the imperial capital of Bianliang has been attacked by a strong attack, from the outcasts and rebels.

The beast-like carts were pushed and crashed into the city gates, ladders were lifted and overturned, and human lives were trampled like mustard harvests.

This scene is undoubtedly the outward manifestation of the greedy desires in the hearts of careerists.

Chi Zhengrong, the commander of the rebel army, stood at the back of the army on horseback, looking at the desperately high city wall in front of him, speechless for a long time.

Coming all the way north, Chi Zhengrong had already thought of this result, so he treated the mountain bandits and homeless people preferentially, coerced the homeless people who were several times more than the regular army, and prepared to storm the imperial capital city.

However, at the beginning of the siege, the displaced people who were forcibly driven to attack the city were shot from the city walls with arrows, stones, and poisonous water...... They all greeted each other, and the displaced people suffered heavy casualties.

The corpses piled up in the moat silently tell the story of the difficulty of the battle.

"General, we have stormed the imperial capital for seven days, and we haven't even knocked down a single gate of the city."

"Don't do anything, General, it's time for us to go, it's too late if we don't leave!"

Next to Chi Zhengrong, the chief general of the rebel army, is a staff member who has followed him for many years, and he is also a teacher and friend.

They rose together, and at this moment they were ready to flee together.

"Strategist, I'm not reconciled!"

"If I am given another half a month, I will consume the imperial capital in front of me."

"The world is right in front of you, separated by a wall, like a moat."

"God, you're unfair!"

"Also, Qingbiao's dead fat pigs, nests and wastes, hundreds of thousands of troops scattered and fled, and the situation can't be delayed."

"Ah......h

Chi Zhengrong, the main general of the rebel army, was really unwilling, and he occupied it at the right time, place, and people, but he couldn't defeat the imperial capital for a while.

If it weren't for the fact that the Zhennan Army had already pursued them, they would immediately come face to face, and Chi Zhengrong had many ways to break through the imperial city.

However, it will take time, as long as half a month.

It's a pity he didn't!

The rebel Army, the Middle Route Army and the Western Route Army, were like two wild dogs, being chased and beaten.

At this moment, the wild dog fled south, and the rebel army led by Chi Zhengrong became a public enemy and attracted the greatest hatred.

"What about the rats in the city walls? Why don't they stand up and take the initiative to open the city gates, even if it causes a little disturbance, we have a chance! ”

The anger in Chi Zhengrong's heart became more and more turbulent, and when he thought of the promises and help of those big rats in the city wall before the incident, he had an urge to swallow the dynasty in one bite.

At this critical moment, there was no trace of those big rats in the secret, and it seemed that all the things and pressures were pressing on him in an instant.

Fortunately, although Ji Zhengrong was angry, he was also very sorry for his life.

"The herald ordered the various forces to continue to attack, and promised that on the day their city was broken, that is, when they were crowned marquis, all the heavy siege equipment would be sent to me, and all the supplies and food would be sent in full quantities."

"There is news that there is already a great chaos in the Imperial Dynasty, and the Guards and the Imperial Forest Army are too busy to take care of themselves, so that the group of homeless people and mountain bandits will continue to attack the three waves, and then assist the main force of our army to attack the Imperial Dynasty."

"Tell them that the princes and generals, the glory and wealth are right in front of them, and if the imperial city is broken, everything can be obtained."

After the messenger went down, Chi Zhengrong, who had a majestic and solemn face, instantly squinted his eyes, and his eyes were full of gloom.

"Strategist, arrange it, once the assault is launched, we will take advantage of the chaos to escape from here."

"The ambition to dominate the cause has not been achieved, but you and I are still there, and the strong guards are not lost, all the way south, we still have the day of a comeback."

The military advisor nodded, his mind gloomy.

Before the incident, he and Chi Zhengrong's family members had already been arranged to the southernmost side, and at this moment, they could still retain some strength when they went south.

Thinking of worry-free in the rear, the gloomy color on the military advisor's face spread, and he squinted and went down to make arrangements.

Half a day later, behind the rebels who were still trying their best to attack the city, suddenly drums and horns sounded, and flags were blown in the wind.

The commander of the Zhennan Army led the cavalry to attack and kill on three wings, and the soldiers of the Zhennan Army behind them ran like oxen, and the shouts of killing instantly overshadowed the rebels besieging the city.

The two armies met at this point, rumbling forward, surging in blood and advancing each other.

On the battlefield, the two sides that collided and collided together, the momentum of killing was overwhelming, the war drums were like heavy thunder, the gold was like a torrential rain, shouting killing, roaring, breathing, cutting throats, and breaking arms...... Let the mountains and rivers tremble so much.

However, who would have thought that as early as half a day ago, before the attack was launched, Chi Zhengrong, the chief general of the rebel army, had already led the most elite group of guards under his command, bypassing Wu Sen, the vanguard general of the Zhennan Army, and fled all the way south.

The terrible sound of the bull's horn sounded from noon to evening, and from night to dawn.

The rebel army, composed of hundreds of thousands of displaced people, could not withstand the uninterrupted onslaught of the vanguard general Wu Sen, and from the dark of last night to the dawn of today, the wise people had taken advantage of the darkness to withdraw from the battle and flee.

Within the city walls, the Royal Palace.

In front of the Chaotian Palace, there were no civil ministers and military generals, only His Majesty the Emperor stood in front of the gate, facing the east, to welcome the rising sun.

Behind His Majesty the Emperor is the great eunuch who has been loyal and has served His Majesty the Emperor for many years.

"Your Majesty, the vanguard general returned to the imperial city, and the 400,000 rebels outside the city were all ambushed. Those people, fleeing, dying, we won! ”

The voice of the great eunuch was very high-pitched, his speech trembled, and the excitement in his heart overflowed from the old tears, and he could see it at a glance.

"Hmph...... There are really 400,000 rebels, and I would have died in this Chaotian Temple a long time ago! ”

"Most of the rebels are just people who don't have enough food and clothing, and they don't have a way to live!"

"How sad it is that anti-thieves bewitch the people, traitors oppress the people, corrupt officials and fish the people!"

His Majesty the Emperor's words, the great eunuch did not dare to accept them, so he could only kneel on the ground and be sent at any time.

The imperial capital, a nameless courtyard.

It's amazing that the imperial capital, which has long been strictly forbidden to travel, still let the three black shadows gather in the small black house.

"Chi Zhengrong fled and went south, our defeat is decided!"

The most upright black shadow made a final conclusion for this disaster.

The black shadow did not hide his dejected intention when he spoke, and he was extremely unoptimistic about the situation in front of him.

The mastermind hidden in the deepest part of this disaster is him.

From the incident to the present, the black shadow can be said to have come in a hurry and returned in defeat.

For a long time, the rickety figure reflected the candle flame and made an old voice.

"This is the last time we will get together, and everything that should be arranged will be arranged."

"In this disaster, someone has to come to an end, and it just so happens that the old man is the one who seems to have the most weight and the most likely candidate."

"It's not terrible to fail, it's terrible to think of yourself as a loser and not learn from failure."

"The old man didn't participate in your actions this time, but the old man saw it in his eyes, and the old man felt that you had done a good enough job."

"It's just that this fate is really unpredictable, and the situation in this world is even more unpredictable."

"In time, you will become a great thing!"

"Finally, I will send you two words."

"Hibernation!"

……

Just when the battle outside the imperial capital Bianliang was raging and the city was deceitful, Nanshan, which had never appeared on the frontal battlefield, was riding a horse on the north bank of the Pingjiang River at this moment.

"General Chi, surrender!"

"At this time, there is still a glimmer of hope for the nine clans of the general!"

Facing Nanshan, who cut off his back road, Chi Zhengrong, the chief general of the rebel army, shouted loudly, and his heroism was abnormal.

"Hahaha...... Yellow-mouthed children, the smell of milk has not dried, and An dares to rap here, and he is not disrespectful. ”

"Ben will come by the wind, but I am afraid that I will go with the wind!"

"Brothers, there is no life or death in this trip, rush out with me!!"

Poof!

As soon as the rebel commander Chi Zhengrong finished speaking, a long sword came out of his chest, and when he wanted to look back, he saw a headless corpse fall from his horse.

And after the headless corpse, the adjutant general immediately stabbed the knife, and the knife was stained with blood, obviously the one who cut off Chi Zhengrong's head was the deputy general he had trusted for many years.

In this way, the rebel army is the most powerful and scheming, and Chi Zhengrong, who is only one step away from success, has fallen.

"We are willing to sacrifice Chi Zhengrong's head and atone for our sins!"

"We are willing to sacrifice Chi Zhengrong's head and atone for our sins!"

“……”

Nanshan's expression was indifferent, his eyes were cold, and he faced everything that happened in front of him indifferently.

In the end, with the army surrounding the enemy, Nanshan did not issue an order to destroy Chi Zhengrong's subordinates, but took Chi Zhengrong's head and led his troops to the imperial capital.

Youzhou Mansion, Pingyang County.

The people in the county town are panicked, and they don't see the bustling city of the past.

The reason for all this is that the rebels occupied this place again, and Qingbei returned to Pingyang County with a large number of people.

Outside the gate of the south house, Qingbei was wearing silver armor and hanging a cloak on his back, waiting here.

Not long after, Lin Xiaomei, who was dressed as a woman in Qingsu Luo, walked out of Nanfu and looked at Qingbei, with a little doubt and fear in her eyes.

Seeing Lin Xiaomei go out to see herself, Qingbei bowed her hand, calm and relaxed, and when she came here to beg for food a few years ago, it was very different.

"Qingbei, I've seen Xiao Engong!!"

Lin Xiaomei stared at Qingbei, seeing that he was standing tall and proud, and looked at it for a long time before she realized that she was surprised.

"It's you!"

The surprise on Lin Xiaomei's face made Qingbei feel very comfortable, and he suddenly felt that the hardships he had endured in the past few years were so worthwhile.

After being happy for a while, Qingbei was solemn, staring at Lin Xiaomei's big fox eyes and said very seriously.

"The big thief Qing Biao will sweep through Youzhou Mansion again in a few days, and when he passes, he will definitely burn and loot all the places he passes."

"Little Engong, come with me!"

Qingbei's words were very sincere, without any coercion and temptation, and the reason why he wanted to take Lin Xiaomei away was clear.

However, in the end, Lin Xiaomei still disappointed Qingbei.

"Thank you for your kindness, let's go!"

"I'm going to wait for my husband, if I leave, he won't find me when he comes back!"

When Qingbei heard this, the hand under the sleeve robe tightened and tightened, and finally slowly let go.

Qingbei couldn't figure it out and wanted to know why.

Why can't he, who is proud of the spring breeze at this moment, win Lin Xiaomei's favor?

Why is a scholar who has no reputation and doesn't know life and death in troubled times can make Lin Xiaomei miss it so much?

Why didn't Lin Xiaomei go with her?

Is it because he is a thief?

At this moment, a variety of complicated emotions flashed on Qingbei's face, he was too young to hide his inner thoughts.

However, Qingbei still respects Lin Xiaomei very much, and respects this little benevolent father who once saved him.

Three days later, Qingbei led the team to leave Pingyang County, preparing to continue to flee south.

Because of the big thief Qingbiao, he couldn't collect grain and grass supplies in Youzhou Mansion, so he had to loot all the way, and now he has entered Pingyang County.

Pingyang County, suburbs.

"Xiaoman, where are your brother and the military advisor?"

The thin little girl who used to live in a dilapidated house has been weathered at the moment, wearing a red scarf and holding a long sword, and she has a fierce aura on her body.

However, this girl named Xiaoman has red circles under her eyes at the moment, and her eyes are evading and fearing when she looks at Qingbei.

"Little Man......"

Qingbei squinted, called Xiaoman's name in a suppressed voice, dragged a long voice to threaten, and a momentum was suppressed.

"Brother Qingbei...... Brother Qingbei...... Brother and military advisor, go to Nanfu to snatch the little Engong of the Lin family for you. ”

"Nonsense!!"

When Qingbei heard this, his pupils shrank, and after thinking for a while, he turned around and beat his horse, and rushed to Pingyang County with the team.

Pingyang County is another panicked city.

The small county town that had just sent away Qingbei ushered in the big thief Qingbiao at this moment.

The big thief Qing Biao entered the city, and just happened to meet the honest young man and staff who took Lin Xiaomei out with a small team of people.

These two people knew Qingbiao, the big thief, and knew that they were Qingbei's subordinates.

"Hahaha...... I didn't expect you to be here, it seems that that little bastard in Qingbei is nearby. ”

"Take them, and later Pingyang County will collect the scraped things, and the brothers will share them themselves."

Qing Biao shouted, and a group of cavalry behind him swept over, and the three of them rushed back and forth, and the honest young man and the staff scholar were killed on the spot.

And this scene happened to be seen by Qingbei and Xiaoman, who rushed over.

"Brother......

"Ahh......h Qingbiao old thief, I'll fight with you! ”

Qingbei was furious, his best brother was killed, his beloved woman was taken captive, and his loyal staff who had taken refuge were beheaded.

In an instant, the two teams of anti-thieves fought among themselves, and the two sides scuffled together.

The screams of killing shook the town, but no one dared to come out to see what was going on, and the cavalry and the homeless people met each other, and the swords, guns, swords, and crossbows showed their majesty.

……

In the final end, Qingbei led the crowd to flee and continued to die in the south.

And Qing Biao, the big thief who had the advantage of cavalry, not only robbed part of the grain and grass in Qingbei, but also took the beauty Lin Xiaomei away with him.

At night, when the big thief Qingbiao was full of wine, meat and rice, dragged his big belly into the inner room, ready to enjoy Lin Xiaomei, he opened the door and entered the house and saw a bloody color.

The little sister of the Lin family, Lin Xi, has a phoenix hair fork on her chest, which is fragrant.

At the same time, the imperial capital of Bianliang.

On the celebration banquet of the palace, Nanshan, who pushed the cup and changed the lamp, drank with the emperor, felt a pain in his heart for no reason.

"Congratulations to Nan for joining the army, the official worshiped the Youzhou Mansion, and was awarded the title of Nanbo, becoming the first civil servant of our dynasty to be knighted by virtue of military merits."

At the banquet, he had been named Marshal Zhennan, and he would continue to go south to kill the rebellious Wu Sen and come over to talk to Nanshan.

The catastrophe of the imperial capital has been solved, and now it is only necessary to sweep all the way from north to south.

Of course, Nanshan is also one of the military personnel, and His Majesty the Emperor has personally promised that after the rebellion is quelled, Nanshan will be allowed to enter the imperial capital and enter the imperial court to hold important positions.

A month later, Nanshan followed Marshal Zhennan to sweep down Yingchuan Mansion and the rebel forces around it, and when he was about to enter Jingchuan Mansion, Nanshan received a letter from home.

Zhennan Army, the camp of the Chinese army.

After reading the family letter, Nanshan fainted instantly, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

"Brother Nan!"

"Nanshan!"

"Uncle Zhennan!"

“……”

Friends Zhu Yuan and Yuanji were quick to move, and quickly came to Nanshan's side, helping Nanshan up from the ground, one pinching people, and the other kept shouting Nanshan.

A moment later, Nanshan woke up and vomited his heart.

"Daddy...... Mother...... Little sister ......"

After Nanshan said this, he fainted again.

Wu Sen, the general on the main seat, had already come to the vicinity, and after seeing that everyone was surrounding Nanshan and couldn't squeeze in, he picked up the letter that slipped from Nanshan's hand and read it.

"Abominable ......"

"Qingbiao old thief, this trip will definitely punish your nine clans!"

In the letters, the big thief Qing Biao slaughtered Pingyang County, and the Nanlin family was slaughtered, only the old housekeeper of the Lin family was injured but did not die, and faked his death to escape the catastrophe, and sent news to Nanshan.

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
