Chapter Thirty-Six: The Soldiers Are Coming to the City

Wang Shou Li He and his party of high-level celebrities in Xiangyang hurriedly climbed to the city tower and nervously looked at the thousands of miles of smoke and dust raised by Hu Qi in the north. These pampered and well-known families have never encountered wars, and when they heard about the tragic situation in the north in the past, they just laughed at it, but now that the soldiers are in the city, they have already been in chaos, and they look at Wang Shou and Li He one by one as if asking for help.

Zhang You has died, and the Wang family, as the leader of the Shi clan, and the general Xiangyang, who has commanded the army for many years, have undoubtedly become the backbone of the entire Xiangyang City.

hurriedly boarded two people, one of whom was Wang Cheng, the younger brother of the king's first clan, and bowed to the king's head and said: "Brother, the soldiers of the Wang family have all been in place!" One person was a deputy commander of the barracks, and he also reported to Li He: "General, the soldiers have been assembled!" ”

Li He glanced back at Qu Gao, who looked lonely, and saw that the enemy was at present, and he was so injured by a woman, he couldn't help but snort disdainfully, turned to Wang Shou and asked: "Wang Jialangjun, I heard that you are an assertive person, and now Xiangyang is in danger, do you have a good plan?" ”

Wang Shou slowly turned half of his face, with a complicated faint smile on his face, looking at Li He's dark pupils were extremely deep, like a black hole that could devour people's hearts, until Li He's boiling blood turned into ice in an instant. He has commanded the army for many years, and he has also followed Zhang You through the battlefield, and he has never frowned in the face of death, but at this time, he was glanced at by Wang Shou like this, and his heartbeat was accelerated, and a fear was born for no reason, and this fear instantly hit his whole body, as if he suddenly fell into an ice cellar.

"Please General Li hand over the garrison power of Xiangyang!" Wang Shou's gloomy voice without half emotion reached Li He's ears, and Li He exclaimed: "What are you talking about! ”

A petite woman in black approached Wang Shou's side, looked sideways, and stared at Li He with a solemn gaze.

"You!" Li He was frightened, but suddenly understood, he looked at Wang Shou in disbelief, and roared, "It's actually you!" ”

Wang Shou still couldn't see any emotion on his face, and he said lightly: "One city does not allow two masters, General Li doesn't understand this truth?" ”

Li He glanced around, and saw that Wang Cheng brought a lot of Wang's soldiers, distributed around, although there were also many soldiers on the city tower that he could command, but he knew that the soldiers of the Wang's government were well-equipped, well-trained, and far superior in combat power to these ordinary soldiers.

Suddenly, he looked at Qu Gao with a glimmer of hope in his eyes, and the night before, when the female assassin wanted to kill him, Qu Gao stood in front of him. The Qu family has guarded Xiangyang for generations, and he can be regarded as watching Qu Gao grow up, and he believes in the Qu family's loyalty to Xiangyang, which is something that the entire Xiangyang City is convinced of. Even though he wanted to besiege him last night, but for the survival of Xiangyang, Qu Gao would never sit idly by and watch Wang Shou take him. The black-clothed dead soldiers beside him looked even more ferocious, but at this time, the more Li He looked at it, the more he liked it, as long as Qu Gao could drag the king's head and give him a chance to escape from the city tower, when he returned to the army, he would be fearless.

Almost at the same time, Qu Gao also raised his head, glanced at Li He coldly, and said to the black-clothed dead man beside him: "Take him down!" ”

The two black-clothed swordsmen stepped forward together, and in an instant, they crossed the long sword on Li Hexiang one left and one right, and the speed was amazing! Li He exclaimed: "You! Qu Lang, for the ...... of Xiangyang"

"I protected you the night before for Xiangyang, and I took you today for Xiangyang." Qu Gao interrupted him, put Zhu Yanping on the ground, stood up straight, walked to the corridor of the city tower, raised his voice in front of the garrison soldiers who were ready to fight under the city, and shouted: "At the moment of the great enemy, Li He wants to betray the country and seek glory, I have taken it, the soldiers of Xiangyang, for the sake of our families, must not let the thieves enter the country for half a step!" ”

"Swear to defend Xiangyang!"

"Swear to defend Xiangyang!"

"Swear to defend Xiangyang!"

At first, I don't know who shouted, and then everyone shouted out together, and the momentum was huge, which shocked everyone on the city tower, including Li He and Wang Shou.

In the eyes of all of them, the Qu family is just a family of corporals from a poor family, although it is the only first-class soldier family in Xiangyang City, and it has a certain prestige among ordinary soldiers, but in the eyes of these people, it is insignificant. Besides, Qu Gao didn't join the army, and he couldn't even keep the position of the hereditary lieutenant who was given by the former Taishou, how could he have such a strong appeal!

He said that Li He wanted to collaborate with the enemy, and thousands of soldiers actually believed it?

He took down Li He with a guilty body, but no one stepped forward to question it!

This is incomprehensible to the public. Immediately afterwards, their eyes looking at Qu Gao also changed, this kind of look was different from the contempt of the scholars in the past, and it was also different from the equality when the status was similar, with three points of admiration and seven points of awe in those eyes, for a while, everyone was also secretly shocked: how could the posture that was only available when facing the king's head in the past be involuntarily shown to this son?

Wang Shou's eyes were so sharp, he had already seen everyone's demeanor, his eyes were faintly bright, he sighed lightly, and looked out of the city again, the soldiers and horses of the Hu people were less than ten miles.

Qu Gao slowly walked over to Wang Shou, who knew that he was holding the Lu Li Sword in his hand, so he couldn't help but be a little more vigilant. Somehow, he thought that he knew Qu Gao quite well, knowing that he would not attack him, but he couldn't help but think crankily in his heart: At present, the Xiangyang garrison is under Qu Gao's command, and if Qu Gao kills himself, he can be the veritable lord of Xiangyang. The attraction of a position of power is fatal to a person, and when he enjoys the treatment of the stars and the moon, does not desire breed in his heart?

If so, don't relent! Wang Shou took half a step back and shouted softly: "Yue Ren." ”

In fact, the female assassin was already half-clinged to the king's head. Her face didn't change, the two had fought each other, and Qu Gao's skills were not enough to threaten her, but she was puzzled in her heart, how could the princess who had refused the emperor's marriage to such a kid be cowardly?

Qu Gao stopped five steps away, with a wave of his hand, Li He screamed in pain, a bloody hole was cracked in his chest, blood flowed out, Qu Gao pulled out his sword, looked at the king's head, and said: "I know, you can't do these things, I helped you, please help me, keep Xiangyang!" ”

His voice was a little lonely, if it was because of Zhu Yan, but Wang Shou could hear that Qu Gao was disappointed in his defense of himself, and nodded heavily, Wang Shou faced Qu Gao, pointed to the sky, and swore an oath: "Wang Shou and Qu Lang swear that they will live and die together with Xiangyang!" ”
