Chapter 3 When the soldiers approached the city, the prince was still mowing the grass

In addition to pioneering, the way of farming is more important than hard work.

True possession does not depend on mastering it, but on how much you get in return for your labor on it.

"Sure enough, it's a harvest for every effort."

Zhang Junlin bent down and used a long sickle to cut off the weeds that were lying low on the ground.

After cutting the grass and removing the roots, the strength that poured into the body from the soles of the feet increased greatly.

The direction is right, and the next step is to copy successfully.

The germination rate of the rice seedlings sown by hand is not high, and in addition to the recent tightening of the war, the farmers have been slack, and the large areas of weeds between the seedlings have not been cleared.

You only need to master the tricky angle, and you can use the long sickle to harvest accurately.

Whew......

The long sickle sometimes wanders among the seedlings, knocking down a weed with lightning speed; From time to time, it flickered overwhelmingly close to the ground, and the sharp light flashed over the grass nests that had been piled up high in the clearing.

"The power of cutting an acre of grass is not as good as one-tenth of that of clearing the wasteland, but the speed and reaction have doubled!"

Zhang Junlin stood on the ground, looking at the rice field behind him with only rice seedlings left, and exhaled with relief.

He didn't know that his current strength could compete with several ranks of martial artists.

But it is said that the strength of a warrior doubles with each order.

"My strength should not be able to defeat a seventh-order martial artist in a short period of time, so I can only find another way to see if I can win with speed."

It is said that the Xiang family has been able to comprehend martial arts since they took up arms.

Now he can only fight, Xiang Hong, who is good at using martial arts, focuses on strengthening himself with the power of enlightenment, and does not practice weapons diligently.

"I'm running out of time."

The grass of the first acre of rice field, Zhang Junlin spent a cup of tea.

In the second acre of rice field, he only spent half a cup of tea.

Not far away, Nanfeng and Zhiyi squatted on top of the branches, and saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince waving from being able to see its afterimage, and finally it was only with the strength of the wind and the weeds that he could confirm that the long sickle had been used.

It's already admired to the ground.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is actually able to use the power of the Heaven and Earth Dao Law of the Middle Third Order!"

Although I don't know if it's Wendao or Martial Dao, it is undoubtedly a big help at this time.

Before the two could make a decision, who would inform the eldest princess of the good news.

I saw His Royal Highness the Prince, who had finished cutting two acres of weeds, beckoning to them.

"Two girls, do me a favor?"

The black and thin boy smiled harmlessly, and looked at the two of them as if he were looking at two little mice.

……

North of the city, suburbs.

On the road to Northern Qi, four young men with gloomy expressions looked at the fleeing people like poisonous snakes.

"It's getting dark, beware of the three princes deliberately opening the city gate and sneaking out at night."

Although the third prince accepted the will to become the crown prince of the prison country, the news that he was willing to live and die with Jinling had already reached their ears.

But they still had to hold on until the soldiers approached the city, beware of the three princes abandoning the city and fleeing.

As long as the three princes do not obey the order, they can kill them on the spot according to the queen's decree, and they can be regarded as having the merit of the dragon afterwards.

"Brother Shi, do you think the third prince will run away from other city gates?"

"The queen not only arranged for you and me, even if there is the eldest princess to escort them, they can't run away with one enemy and four enemies."

As for the three princes, in their opinion, they are just the eldest princess's oil bottle, and they are not considered combat power at all.

At sunset, the gates that should be closed on weekdays are still open.

But the number of people fleeing is decreasing.

More than 100 miles to the east.

Tens of thousands of magnates and royalty sat peacefully in the carriages.

Despite the flight, their food and clothing are still undiminished.

It doesn't look like a country fleeing, but like a spring outing.

It is in stark contrast to the people around them who are ragged, walking on their feet and sometimes slumping on the road.

On the imperial chariot, the emperor had just finished a sumptuous dinner when he received a messenger sent by Dong You to report it, and he applauded happily.

"It is worthy of my son, I am willing to live and die with Jinling, what a good temperament!"

When the surrounding ministers thought of making the decree, the emperor could only echo and praise "Your Majesty's wisdom" when the emperor said in public, "The three princes are useless, and it is not a pity to die for the sake of defending the country and the foundation of the ancestors".

The other princes drooped their faces, their eyes full of envy, jealousy and hatred.

And the eldest prince and the second prince born to the current queen laughed gloatingly when they thought that Zhang Junlin was just an abandoned son.

What about being the crown prince of the prison country.

The queen mother said it.

first set up the third prince as the prince to defend the city and martyr the country, delay time for them to escape, and then change the crown prince.

The good name was left to the mother and son of the former queen, and they only had to inherit the throne.

"Big brother, I heard that Xiang Hong likes to abuse and kill the most, a hammer can hammer people into meatloaf before stopping, why don't we make a bet, how many times will the third child be hammered?"

"I'll bet once."

"So little?"

"The thin body of the third child, unlike you and me, who are both fourth-order martial artists, will be crushed into pulp with the power of Xiang Hong, who can't stop the peak of the seventh order, with one blow."

Imagining this picture, the two glanced at each other, and the laughter spread far and wide.

……

Night covers the land.

The torches illuminated the west gate tower of Jinling as bright as day.

"Report! The Western Chu army has broken through Chu County, and it is expected that the troops will come to the city tomorrow morning! ”

"Probe!"

Zhang Junyuan held the hands of the battlements of the city wall, and the green muscles burst out.

Damn it!

I thought that Xiang Hong would go straight to Jinling, but I didn't expect to take Chuxian County first by making a detour.

There are 20,000 people in Chuxian County, and they don't know how much they have left.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, it is not much time before the soldiers come to the city, do you want to invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come to train the troops again?"

Dong You was in a hurry.

He sent someone to invite him once in the afternoon, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was concentrating on weeding, and said that he would call him when the soldiers came to the city.

Really...... Ridiculous!

If weeding could solve the current crisis, he would have given up the Taifu and went to hoe the grass with the prince.

"The strong enemy is in front, the disparity in strength is huge, and there is no point in training."

Zhang Junyuan sighed gloomily and gave an order.

"Two hours later, add another meal to all the soldiers to spend the night, eat and drink well, and we will welcome the Western Chu army together."

As soon as this remark came out.

The courtiers looked very sad.

"Eat and drink, people die and birds don't die for thousands of years, I let them set up a pot to cook meat!"

Xie Duweihu stepped down the city tower to make arrangements.

Zhang Junyuan looked in the direction of Huangzhuang, confused in his heart.

The big war is coming, not only weeding by himself, but also bringing the south wind and Zhiyi.

"Brother Huang...... What kind of medicine is sold in your gourd? ”

That's it.

Think of it as the last indulgence of the imperial brother.

Except for the eldest princess, no one can please move His Royal Highness the Prince.

Ministers can only be left to their own devices.

When the sun jumped out of the east, it shone on the shining armor of the Western Chu army not far away.

The momentum that destroyed the sea like a mountain and a sea made the people defending the city tremble before they could fight.

"The army of Western Chu is here, Her Royal Highness the Princess, where is Her Royal Highness the Prince?"

The chivalrous men who gathered under the city tower to prepare for war raised their arms and shouted.

"Please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to lead us to fight against the enemy army!"

"We heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stayed to defend the city for the people!"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, I am willing to take the lead for you to meet the enemy soldiers of Western Chu for a while!"

At this step, Zhang Junyuan didn't bother to think about whether there was any support from the queen and others in this group of people.

Xiang Hong's 100,000 army was divided into finished characters and outflanked to the left and right, and in order to prevent troubles in wartime, she had already ordered the city gate to be closed.

"Go and ask His Royal Highness the Prince."

Right now, the royal brother can only live and die with her, advance and retreat together!

……

Zhang Junlin simply finished breakfast and continued to mow the grass in the rice fields with a long sickle.

The south wind and Zhiyi, who helped clear the weeds to the top of the field, were so tired that they wiped the hot sweat from their foreheads.

They and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not sleep all night, except for eating, drinking, and almost never resting.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hoes the weeds, and they are responsible for carrying the weeds to prevent the weeds from taking root and growing again, by the way...... Admire the heroic posture of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as he weeds.

"Don't be stunned, there are still ten acres of land to be removed."

Zhang Junlin did an experiment.

It was found that the two girls had achieved the result of thorough weeding according to the orders he had given, and they could also enhance the power of the Dao Law to pour into their bodies.

Although it is not as good as one percent of his own hands, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat.

"It should be that the two girls think in their hearts that they are helping me work, and the Heaven and Earth Dao Law will attribute the income of labor to me."

Next time, try to change people, this conclusion will not work.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the Western Chu soldiers are coming to the city, Her Royal Highness the Princess invites you to go to the west of the city to preside over the overall situation!"

Zhang Junlin looked at the weeds that only had two acres of land left.

"Nanfeng, Zhiyi, please ask the two of you to help cut off these two acres of weeds, but don't be lazy, otherwise it will kill people."

He smiled with satisfaction at the two girls, who were bewildered but still nodding their heads.

Shook the blades of grass on the scythe.

Suddenly, a hurricane swept countless green blades of grass and piled them on the ground.

There seemed to be a layer of grass and green curtain between heaven and earth, and the invisible energy made the guards' hearts surge.

He actually felt the power of heaven and earth in these weeds!

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, ...... quickly What about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”

The guard came to his senses.

Within a radius of ten miles, where is there still Zhang Junlin's figure.

……

Under the city.

Xiang Hong held a three-foot-square iron hammer in his right hand, and drove his horse forward unhurriedly.

Behind him, followed by nearly 1,000 South Vietnamese people with their hands tied.

These are all specially brought by him from Chuxian.

"Listen to the city guards, as long as you open the city gate and return to my Western Chu Kingdom, I, Xiang Hong, will spare you from dying!"

"Otherwise......"

Rumble!

The hammer came out of his hand and hit a young man in his thirties.

The splatters of blood caused confusion among the bound teams.

But soon they were afraid of the swords and guns of the soldiers of Western Chu, and they all knelt on the ground and kept shouting towards the city tower.

"Help us!"

"Surrender Kaesong!"

On the castle tower.

Zhang Junyuan looked at the pool of flesh and blood that was hammered below, and his eyes were about to split.

She didn't believe a word of Xiang Hong's nonsense.

"The scout has come to report that the Chuxian guards surrendered, but they ended up with tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city being killed. Xiang Hong, today is either you die or I die! ”

Zhang Junyuan jumped down, and the long sword in his hand slashed towards the top of Xiang Hong's head.

"A fourth-order martial artist dares to show his sword in front of me?"

Xiang Hong didn't even glance at Zhang Junyuan, and gently waved the sledgehammer like a fly.

The overwhelming pressure came to the face, and wherever the energy went, the ground roared, and the wall skin fell like powder.

The seventh-order peak martial artist has reached the realm of "inhuman".

It has the power to destroy the withering and decaying.

"It's so terrifying......"

In the face of the gap, Zhang Junyuan had no power to resist.

She looked at the kidnapped people, and then at Xiang Hong, who was hammering again, leaving unwilling tears.

"King's Landing, I can't protect anything after all......"

"Eldest sister!"
