The night shrouded Jingzhou City, and the heavy air suppressed every soldier defending the city. Wu Cheng, the general of the town guard, went out with his troops to pursue the enemy army early in the morning, and now there is no news from above, and there is a demand for martial law. They are just the garrison of Jingzhou, although the glory of the empire is still there, and the martial arts of the empire are still there, but after all, they have not used force for nearly hundreds of years. The elite of the army has been transferred to the Praetorian Guard, they are only responsible for maintaining the local law and order in Jingzhou, the last time the Jingzhou army went out to fight is probably a few decades ago, the 200,000 Jingzhou soldiers who were taken away by the Imperial Prince Li, but those people have now become old people, and their children and grandchildren don't even know the horror of war.

"Second son, what do you say we are fighting for? I heard that the one who raised troops in Yangzhou was a descendant of Prince Li back then, and it is said that the royal power of the imperial capital was taken away by Zhang Rang and Zhang Gonggong, and Zhang Rang wanted to kill his whole family, so he would rebel. A soldier defending the city said to a young soldier standing next to him.

The soldier immediately looked at him with a puzzled expression: "How do you know? Didn't it say that the one who raised troops in Yangzhou committed a major crime in the imperial capital, kidnapped the empress dowager, and the emperor sent troops to encircle and suppress him? Come and tell me quickly, how did the prince of Heli get in touch?"

The slightly older soldier immediately showed a proud expression on his face, glanced around vigilantly, and found that the commander was not there, so he lowered his voice and said: "A brother of my own family served in the Praetorian Guard, and now he is also on the front line, and he told me the last time they passed through Jingzhou. Let me tell you, in fact, even the Praetorian Guards don't want to fight this battle, but the people above want to fight. They can't help it. ”

"Second son. I'll tell you the truth. My friend who works in the City Lord's Mansion told me. In fact, our Jingzhou Thorn Shi Qiao Thorn Shi didn't want to fight for a long time. However, with the orders of the royal family, Gonggong Zhang handed over the soldiers and horses to General Huang, and he led us to encircle and suppress the one in Yangzhou. The soldier's voice was low, but it still attracted a group of soldiers around him.

The soldier named Erzi looked at him with a puzzled expression and said, "You brag, Lord Qiao's son is now also a legion commander of the Imperial Guard's Praetorian Guard in the Imperial Capital, and I saw him lead his troops through the Jingzhou border a few days ago. You said that Master Qiao didn't want to fight, how could this be. ”

"Look, that's why you're stupid. Lord Qiao's son served in the Praetorian Guard of the Imperial Capital. But who is the one who raised troops in the south, he is the grandson of King Pingxi, the son-in-law of King He Ling and King Pingdong, and it is said that he has something to do with the royal family, so Gonggong Zhang is so nervous, you see that even the Jingzhou army, which we have never mobilized much, is now being transferred with little troops. The soldier lowered his voice and said, "Look at the east gate, now they are all guarded by the people of the Qiao Assassin family, and this is the problem of our lack of troops. ”

"Do you want to hear any more news from me?" the soldier looked at the increasing number of people around him, and immediately whispered, looking at everyone with an expression that he wanted to know and would pay the price. Everyone immediately nodded. The soldier smirked as he watched as even the soldiers on the other side gathered together. The current jiashi can't even catch up with him.

"Stop talking nonsense, tell me the dead fish. When the changing of the guard is tomorrow, I invite you to have a good drink at the most haode restaurant in the city. A bearded soldier slapped the soldier on the head. The soldiers around him also urged, and the soldier looked around again with a smile and made sure that there were no officers before withdrawing his eyes.

"Let me tell you, in fact, my identity over there in Yangzhou has been determined, and I am the descendant of Prince Li back then. The voice of the dead fish was very low, and everyone was silent after listening, many of them had more or less relations with the 200,000 Jingzhou soldiers who were taken away by Prince Li, if he was really the descendants of Prince Li, then there would be no point in them fighting this battle at all.

"What are you doing? Don't give me a good defense of the city! If you rebel like that rushes in, your heads will all have to move. Just when everyone was about to ask something, an officer-like guy suddenly came over and reprimanded loudly, everyone hurriedly lowered their heads and dispersed, the officer looked at the dead fish surrounded in the center and scolded: "I know that you kid has a lot of things, and you don't give Lao Tzu a good defense of the city, if such a rebellion is killed, I will be the first to let you rush up." ”

"Team Marshal Wang, look what you are talking about, our Jingzhou City is extremely strong, plus there are officers like Team Shuai Wang, so rebellious to attack our Jingzhou City is not a meat bun and a dog There is no return? Dead Fish looked at Captain Wang with an embarrassed face, Captain Wang nodded with satisfaction after listening to Dead Fish's words, and walked away with a sensible expression of your kid, leaving only the dead fish spitting in the back.

Jingzhou City at night, even if it is the first city in Jingzhou, but not all soldiers have the determination to fight to the death with the Liu family's army, unless they are those recruits who have just enlisted in the army. However, all this could not affect Zhou Yu's jihua in the slightest, and Zhou Yu was also overjoyed to get the help of the two young ladies of the Qiao family, but he didn't dare to be careless, and after carefully considering it, and after making sure that the two of them were undoubted, he began to formulate a battle jihua.

"I said Lao Gan, did these two little girls take a fancy to the governor of my family?Otherwise, how could they take us to attack the city?" Hu Hai and Gan Ning stood in front of the carriage and looked around vigilantly, once there were spies from the Jingzhou army here, the whole Jihua was likely to fail, and they must also be cautious.

Gan Ning looked at Hu Hai expressionlessly, and said dissatisfiedly: "How do I know? Otherwise, you go and ask the Metropolitan Governor to see, I see that they are talented men and women, and they are indeed a natural pair." Why don't I go and tell the Governor what you think?"

"Don't, don't. Hu Hai hurriedly stopped Gan Ning's proposal and told Zhou Yu about this idea, didn't this kill him Hu Hai, thinking of Zhou Yu's methods, Hu Hai couldn't help but shrink his neck. He would rather die on the battlefield than face Zhou Yu. Gan Ning smiled knowingly, did not speak and continued to hurry, but the two sisters in the carriage heard the conversation between the two, and their cheeks immediately turned red.

"Zhanzhu, who is under the city?" When the carriage was still a hundred steps away from the city, the defenders at the head of the city stopped Gan Ning and the others. This is the east gate, Gan Ning and Hu Hai have been instructed by Zhou Yu and the two sisters before, so they naturally know what to do, and now Gan Ning withdrew the knife in his hand and took a few steps forward.

"Upstairs is General Qiao, the last general is under the command of General Wucheng to Shuai Ganyang, the two young ladies went out of the city and were met by my general, and the general specially ordered me to send the young lady back to the city. ”

Qiao Tie, who was on duty at the head of the city, moved in his heart, and the two eldest ladies were sent by him. It's just that they will meet Wu Cheng's army, and the two of them are not the same road at all, and Wu Cheng has no news back now, how can they send someone to send the two back. Qiao Tie looked at Gan Ning's team vigilantly, and asked loudly, "What about the two young ladies?"

"Uncle Joe, here we are. Qiao Yun and Qiao Yu got out of the carriage and shouted loudly to the city, Qiao Tie on the city heard that it was his own young lady's voice, and hurriedly asked the soldiers to send out rocket lighting, and under the flames, Qiao Tie finally confirmed that the two people in front of him were the young lady who he personally sent out of the city. Looking at the appearance of the two young ladies, it didn't look like they had been kidnapped, but the people around him were obviously not the defenders of Jingzhou, because he understood the defenders of Jingzhou and did not have this kind of murderous aura.

"What's the matter? Is Uncle Joe suspicious of our identity? Or we'll stay here all night waiting for dawn to enter the city. Qiao Yun seemed to see Qiao Tie's hesitation and said loudly.

"Open the city gate!" Qiao Tie was shouted by Qiao Yun in his heart, the people in front of him were the two young ladies he had always loved, and after scolding himself, he ordered the soldiers to open the city gate, even if they were not from the Jingzhou army, what kind of wind and waves could they set off in the city with just a few of them.
