Chapter 260: Putting the Long Line Forward

It is often said that blessings and misfortunes do not go alone, and sometimes when encountering unfortunate things, they may see one after another.

is like Mu Qingyun now. He had been assassinated twice in the last two or three days, and although he had escaped without any danger, he was still exhausted.

Therefore, Mu Qingyun, who was exhausted now, very much wanted to leave Shouzhou City quickly and find a safe place to rest.

At the same time, he also had to think about what he should deal with next. Relatively speaking, Zhang Shuliang is much easier, after all, the only thing he has to do now is to lead everyone to escape from Shouzhou City, and he doesn't have to think too much about other things.

And because he successfully captured Zheng Gang and Lin Chao alive, it also made him feel a lot happier. Although he also suffered some injuries in the battle just now, this small injury is nothing compared to the results they have achieved.

In fact, although his status in Shouzhou City is not low as the commander of the Shouzhou City Guard Battalion, his status is not very high in the entire Huainan Army.

Therefore, he rarely had the opportunity to command such a battle of thousands of people, even if he was a disciple of the old Huainan King.

And today's battle was really commanded by him. And the battle he commanded today can be regarded as wonderful even if it is placed on the grassland battlefield.

In particular, the tactics he used to attack the east and the west played a decisive role.

"Your Royal Highness, now that we have completely defeated their encirclement, even the two commanders of the rebels have been captured by us, and I estimate that they will not be able to gather their forces again for a while." Because this breakout battle was fought too smoothly, Zhang Shuliang now feels that the future is very good.

At this moment, he had the idea of taking the Huainan Army back and completely annihilating all the rebels.

"General Zhang, absolutely not!" Although Mu Qingyun was exhausted, his head was still clear.

In the previous breakout battle, he was in charge of the Chinese army, so he observed the entire battle situation very clearly. From the beginning, the rebels in the south of the encirclement suddenly pursued the people strangely, and then retreated step by step when they were attacked by the Huainan army, although they seemed to be panicked, but they did not lose much manpower, and their formation was scattered but not chaotic.

Looking at the battle of the Chinese army where he was located, although Zheng Gang and Lin Chao each attacked their Chinese army with a large wave of rebels, when they encountered the counterattack of the Huainan army, a large number of rebels immediately stopped charging and defended on the spot.

And when they found that they couldn't resist the Huainan army, they immediately chose to retreat. What made Mu Qingyun feel that something was wrong the most was that they finally attacked the north side of the encirclement.

Logically speaking, if three of the four directions of an encirclement have been defeated, then the last one should also collapse at the touch of a button, or even flee without a fight.

But when they attacked the rebels in the north just now, they not only calmly defended but even deliberately left dozens of corpses outside before they hurriedly withdrew.

It is said that when things go wrong, there must be demons, and all these strange situations make Mu Qingyun feel faintly uneasy. Therefore, Mu Qingyun felt that the safest way now was to hurry up and get out of the city, and then slowly figure it out.

"Your Highness often says that you can't miss the opportunity, and you won't come back if you lose it!" Zhang Shuliang has already gained confidence because of the battle just now, so he is now a little fluttering.

"General Zhang is now in a critical situation, we must not make any mistakes, otherwise our Huainan Kingdom will be completely destroyed." After Mu Qingyun said this, Zhang Shuliang realized that there were only Mu Qingyun and Mu Qingxiao who led troops outside the Huainan royal family.

And if Mu Qingyun also had an accident, Mu Qingxiao would probably go completely crazy.

"His Royal Highness the Prince of the World has a point, but a certain general is not well thought out." Then Zhang Shuliang made up his mind to protect Mu Qingyun and then put down the rebellion.

Seeing Mu Qingyun and the others heading towards the north, Pan He's face showed a smug smile.

"Order everyone to be mobilized to rush to Xuanwu Gate immediately!" Then he immediately ordered.

"Yes!" As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came from outside the door.

"It's time for us to change places and watch the next show!" Fei Du, who had been sitting on the chair and never stood up, spoke slowly at this time.

"Yes! This play has been sung here, and it's time for the next protagonist to appear! Mei Buyu's face also showed a shuddering evil smile.

In a mansion not far from Xuanwu Gate, Li Yi and the others had basically taken out almost what Feng Long knew in his stomach.

According to Feng Long's explanation, Li Yi and others finally figured out the basic situation of the rebellion in Huainan.

First of all, the mastermind behind the assassination of the Huainan Wang family is the King of Yue. In fact, he has been plotting against Huainan for a long time, and many years ago, he had already planted a branch of Yue Guo secret spies in Huainan through various means.

Among them, the largest number of people was when the king of Huainan married Bao Wenqin, the concubine of the king of Huainan. And after these people held a certain amount of power in Huainan, King Yue began his own actions.

At the same time, the purpose of his planning of this operation was not only to plot against Huainan, but he actually had a greater ambition, that is, to stir up the contradictions between the Dayu royal family and the Yue Kingdom, so that the two would fight against each other, and eventually cause chaos in the whole world.

Only in this way can King Yue have the opportunity to take the throne in chaos and plot the throne that hundreds of millions of people dream of. It is precisely because of this huge ambition that he will let Feng Long's father and son, who have been lurking in the prosecutor's hall, participate in this matter together.

In particular, he used Feng Long's way to gather the water bandits who were originally recruited by the Nansi and the Prosecutor's Office into his command and trained them to become rebels.

In this way, it can be confirmed that the rebels are in fact at the disposal of the Prosecutor's Office. It doesn't matter if the Prosecutor's Office denies it, because the feudal clans of the world will definitely believe that this matter was instructed by the imperial family, because for the feudal lords of the world, the facts are no longer important, the important thing is that they all need an excuse to start the chaos.

"It's really unthinkable that the ambition of this King Yue has swelled to this extent." When Mr. Shangyang listened to all of Feng Long's narration, he couldn't help but be frightened by King Yue's ambitions.

The sage once said that the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, although he has long since left the court, but he still cares about the world and the people.

You must know that today's people have been miserable, and years of disasters have tossed the people to starvation, killing and injuring countless people.

And once this chaos begins, the people of the world will have no way to live. Thinking of this, Mr. Shangyang couldn't help but feel heartbroken, and at the same time, he hated King Yue even more for trying to provoke a war.

"In fact, there is no one in the world who has such ambitions, not to mention King Yue!" Mu Junhe leaned against the wall with the long sword and shook his head with a wry smile and said.

Perhaps for outsiders, these princes surnamed Mu of the Dayu Dynasty are high-ranking big men. But in Mu Junhe's view, they are just a bunch of greedy and selfish moths.

They only know how to lie on the bodies of the people and frantically ask for them, and then live a life of drunkenness and profligacy.

But they turned a blind eye to the crying and helpless people beneath them, because in their eyes these mud-legged people were inherently cheap, and they were destined to be enslaved by their own people.

"Yes, these people are probably sharpening their knives now, waiting for the collapse of the Dayu Dynasty, and then rushing up to fight for the flesh and blood of the Dayu Dynasty." Jing Zizheng also said with a little indignation and helplessness.

Originally, he wanted to gain fame and fame, but after experiencing the bloody battle in the northern border fortress, he was completely enlightened and understood that even if he was really a high school imperial examination, it would be impossible to change the way of the world.

"When I was not growing up, I used to wonder why such a powerful Dayu Dynasty was always plundered by our grassland tribes, you are far superior to us in terms of population, materials and weapons and equipment, but no one from the grassland tribe can explain clearly, and later one of my Dayu slaves told me that the reason why the Dayu Dynasty is always oppressed by the grassland tribe is entirely because the officials of the Dayu Dynasty have read too many books." Hae-yin's voice rang out abruptly, causing everyone to focus their eyes on him.

"A bunch of nonsense, the words of the sage are to teach people to cultivate themselves, to work together, to govern the country and to level the world, how can they teach people to do evil?" Regarding Haiyin's statement, Mr. Shangyang retorted angrily.

Although he has now been expelled from Confucianism, he still adheres to the will of the saint and devotes himself to the livelihood of the world.

"Although your saint did not teach you this, the books he left behind have opened your cognition and made you learn to compare with others, and there will be a gap when there is a gap, and there will naturally be a change of mind!" Hae-in saw Mr. Shangyang angrily retort to himself, but he didn't show the slightest annoyance.

Because in his opinion, what he said was right.

"Humph! Sure enough, it's a barbarian, who only knows a bunch of nonsense! According to what you say, your steppe tribe has not learned the words of the sage, so there should be no comparison, and there should be no war, right? But why have I heard that your steppe tribes are always fighting to the death? Mr. Shangyang was worthy of being a great Confucian, and he quickly suppressed his anger and began to debate with Hae-yin.

Seeing that the two elders were about to have a debate, he immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and listened carefully.

In his opinion, all the troubles in this world are caused by the heart, and now Hai Yin said that the words of the sage opened up the wisdom of the people, so it led to confusion in people's hearts, which in turn caused many sufferings in the world.

However, Mr. Shangyang said that the strife and suffering in this world were not caused by the opening of the people's wisdom, because the grassland tribes were barbarians, and they had not been taught by the saints and fought against each other all year round.

Seeing that the two were about to argue, Li Yi on the side was anxious. Although it is safe for them to hide in this mansion for the time being, no one knows whether the rebels will kill here in the next second.

Therefore, their top priority should be to leave Shouzhou City immediately.

"Now is not the time for you to debate whether you should read the words of the saint, the most important thing for us now is to escape from Shouzhou City immediately, and as for the debate, there will be time to debate after everyone gets on the boat." Li Yi reminded solemnly.

"Yes, what kind of debate is there now, everyone might as well take a break if they have this spare time, so as to save the energy when they cut people next!" An Su said while polishing his boring.

"Reckless!" Mr. Shangyang couldn't help but snort coldly and whispered. After calming down the debate between Mr. Shangyang and Haiyin, Li Yi and the others immediately began to pack their luggage and prepare to leave.

And when they were about to leave, Li Yi looked at Feng Long with a smile and said.

"Feng Long, I originally wanted to kill you directly, but for the sake of you telling me so much news, I won't kill you today, but next time if you fall into my hands again, I will definitely not be soft again." Feng Long felt incredible that Li Yi was suddenly going to let himself go.

Originally, he was ready to die, and even he thought that if he was killed, he would definitely ask Li Yi to give him a piece of paper, and he would write down all his love for Bao Wenqin.

He wants Bao Wenqin to know that he and her are not only the joy of fish and water, but also the unforgettable love.

"Thank you Li Gongzi for not killing, if there is an opportunity in the future, I Feng Long will repay you." Feng Long immediately bowed to Li Yi.

"You don't have to thank me, you told me what I wanted to know and I released you, it's just a deal between us." Li Yi said disapprerovingly.

However, although Li Yi said that it was just a transaction, Feng Long did not think so.

"By the way, you should be careful to avoid it when you go out, Gonggong Zhou and Chu Tianming and others in the Prosecutor's Office are also in this mansion." Just when Feng Long was about to open the door, Li Yi had a word of advice.

Feng Long, who heard Li Yi's words, couldn't help but be shocked, he immediately turned around and looked at Li Yi excitedly, and then asked with a slight hesitation.

"Li Gongzi, is my father still alive?" Feng Long, who asked this, was both worried and expectant.

"Ling Zun is not dead, but he has been exposed, so he is now imprisoned by Zhou Gonggong and them." After confirming that his father was not dead, Feng Long finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

Then he turned and was about to leave.

"You'd better not try to save your father, if you do, you'll probably fall into my hands again!" Li Yi added lightly.

"Is Li Gongzi also a person from the Prosecutor's Office?" Originally, Feng Long was about to find a way to rescue his father, but Li Yi's words made Feng Long a little surprised.

"I have nothing to do with the Prosecutor's Office, but I have made some deals with some people in the Southern Division, and now I can only be regarded as not an enemy with the Prosecutor's Office, otherwise you think I can still let you go!" In fact, the reason why Li Yi wanted to release Feng Long was not only because Feng Long was more cooperative, but more importantly, he had a grudge against Zhou Gonggong, so he didn't want to cheapen Zhou Gonggong and the others like this.

"But how can a child be indifferent to watching his parents suffer, even if I know that it will fall into your hands, I still have to find a way to rescue my father, and if I am caught by you again, even if you take action, I will die without regrets!" Feng Long turned around and bowed to Li Yi again, then turned his head and walked out without hesitation.

However, he didn't have a hot brain to save his father, but took the two bandit leaders out of the courtyard over the wall, apparently ready to find someone to help.

"I didn't expect this person to be a man with affection and righteousness!" Ansu stood in place and couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, this Feng Long is not only affectionate and righteous, but also a filial son!" Qi Ning also sighed.

"This guy does have some skills, and he still plays a good role." Li Yi said with a smile.

"What do you mean? Could it be that this guy was acting just now? At this time, even Qi Chao looked at Li Yi with some surprise, he also thought that Feng Long was a good man with affection and righteousness just now.

"You guys are really easy to deceive, don't you forget this Feng Long's identity, he is the dual identity of the school supervisor and the prosecutor's office, and whether it is the person from the prosecutor's hall or the school supervisor, which one is not a human spirit?" Keiko said with a smile on his face as he looked at the wall where there was no human figure.

"Then since Li Yi, you also let him go?" Qi Chao looked at Li Yi in surprise, he couldn't understand Li Yi's approach at all now.

"Sometimes you can only get a big fish if you put a long line." Li Yi didn't give them a solution.

"Alright, it's getting late, it's time for us to go." Li Yi took a look and listened, at this time, the autumn fog outside the house had begun to slowly dissipate, and the surrounding scenery began to show up little by little.

I think that when they go to Xuanwu Gate at this time, they should not be suddenly attacked by the people guarding the city. So Li Yi rushed to Xuanwu Gate with everyone, and Zhou Gonggong and others immediately followed.

In this way, nearly thirty people walked quickly towards the Xuanwu Gate. At the same time, in an alley on the side of a street two or three miles from Xuanwu Gate, hundreds of men with weapons were waiting.

"How many brothers have arrived here now?" At the mouth of the alley, a guy with a bow and arrow turned his head and asked the person behind him.

"There are already about 800 people who have arrived." The man behind him replied immediately.

"How far are the others from here?" The man with the bow and arrow continued.

"According to the spies, the remaining 2,000 people are also rushing here, but you also know that most of them are water bandits, and it will be difficult to move as fast as us."

"Then how far are Mu Qingyun and the others from us now?" The man with the bow and arrow asked again.

"It's no longer ten miles, even if we arrange a halfway interception for half an hour, they will definitely return." The man behind the man with the bow obviously knew what the man with the bow meant.

"You're sending people to urge those two thousand, and it didn't take them that long to get around from the south just now." The man with the bow said with some dissatisfaction.

If Zheng Gang and Lin Chao were here at this time, they would definitely be surprised to find that the man with the bow turned out to be the leader of the water bandits who chased the people out of the encirclement just now.

In fact, his true identity is that he is one of the important members of the Dove Organization.

"Yes!" Then the man behind him answered, and turned to arrange for the sentry to be spied.

"Boss, you said that we can succeed in ambushing Mu Qingyun this time, this kid has already escaped death twice, and he is also slanting the door." Another man behind the man with the bow said.

"You know a fart, think about it from another angle, this kid has encountered three assassinations in three days, is this considered unlucky?" Before the bow-wielding man could speak, another fellow laughed and spoke.

"So this guy seems to be really unlucky!" The person who spoke just now thought about it and felt that what his companion said seemed to make a lot of sense.
