In the entire Jianzhou County Guarding Yamen, the happiest person is Zheng Wensong, because he is not a descendant of Niu Mandi, so he has been pressed in the position of Jianzhou Guard. The officialdom of Lord Zheng, who was born in the top three jinshi, was unhappy, so he had to patronize the Qinglou from time to time, lingering in the wind and moon, and even the concubine was accepted into five rooms.

Unexpectedly, Wei Wang Tang Jiusheng was like a divine soldier descending from the sky, quickly investigated the county guard Ye Tengjiao, and promoted Zheng Wensong, who had been far away from the core of Jianzhou's power, to the top position, and let him "temporarily control the affairs of Jianzhou Mansion", although it is only a "right" word, but everyone knows that as long as Lord Zheng does a good job in political affairs and there are no mistakes, then removing the word power is just around the corner.

Therefore, Zheng Wensong has been working diligently in the past few days, and even Xinna's concubine has no time to spoil her, and Qinglou no longer lingers, which makes the Yingying Yanyan in Ziyan Tower resentful, and the top brand of the Oiran is looking through the autumn water, and only hopes that Lord Zheng can come to the door as soon as possible. How did they know that this Lord Zheng sat in the lobby with a straight face every day, meticulously handling official business, and occasionally asked the prince for advice, how could he find time to visit the Qinglou?

It's rare that the sun is shining today, after sending off the acting county guard Zheng Wensong, Tang Jiusheng moved a chair and sat in the patio of the main house in the backyard of the county guard's mansion, holding a golden cinnamon leaf in his mouth, looking at the two golden cinnamon trees in the courtyard that were three or four feet tall in a daze. It was early winter, and the sun was shining on Tang Jiusheng, which was by no means scorching, but warm. This place in Jianzhou is like this, it will not be too cold or too hot, as long as there is a sun in the sky, the weather will not be cold.

Although notices have been posted at the four gates, although I heard that King Wei is sitting in the county guard yamen, and although I heard that King Wei wants to investigate and deal with Ye Tengjiao, the county guard, there are still very few people who come to sue Ye Tengjiao. Tang Jiusheng knew very well in his heart that the people were not afraid of anything else, but they were afraid that if the soldiers all over the ground would defeat Jianzhou, whoever sued Ye Tengjiao would definitely be settled by the Autumn Queen. Now the plan, only by defeating the thieves outside the city again and stabilizing the situation will no one dare to complain.

Tang Jiusheng frowned and thought about countermeasures, the tens of thousands of enemy troops outside the city were not easy to deal with. Although there are 10,000 people in the city, the people who can really drive themselves are the 3,000 people from Xuantong County, as well as more than 500 people from Ning Chenggang, and 3,000 people from Zheng Zheng and others. Hou Jingxian's more than 2,000 men and horses and the remaining 5,000 horses in Jianzhou are all descendants of Niu Mandi and Ye Tengjiao, and they were all forced to surrender, and they cannot be fully trusted at present.

In Jianzhou City, there are more than 6,000 horses that can be used in their hands, but there are more than 7,000 horses who can't be completely believed, so as long as they fight, they can only win and not lose. When he raided Hou Jingxian's camp a few nights ago, he actually transferred more than 4,000 people and lied to the outside world about 2,000 people, so he won the battle of robbing the camp. It also initially stabilized the morale of the army and boosted morale.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with Hou Jingxian himself, but after all, the soldiers he brought from Luye City are not his private army, and his loyalty is not easy to say. Niu Mandi and Ye Tengjiao have been entrenched in Jiannan for so many years, I am afraid that those soldiers are more loyal to Niu Mandi Ye Tengjiao than to him, the king of Wei, such soldiers, he is not at ease to take them out to fight, maybe the military generals on the opposite side will roar, and someone will defect and run over.

Moreover, he has to allocate part of his troops to suppress the ground, and he also has to leave a part to defend the city, so he is overstretched. Although Xiao Wei had already sent the situation in Jianzhou back to Anshu County in the form of a secret report, Tang Jiusheng was not optimistic about the situation in Wei Wangfu, whether it would be windy and rainy Tang Jiusheng didn't know, but he still knew how many soldiers and horses he had under his hands.

Now that the enemy has come to the city, the speed of transferring troops from Jiangzhou, Huzhou and other places to rescue Jianzhou is too slow, and the distant water cannot quench the thirst of the near. If he simply defended the city, Tang Jiusheng was afraid that the city would be besieged for a long time, and the troops in the city would mutinied. Tang Jiusheng had a golden laurel leaf in his mouth, sat on the chair and frowned, how could he win this battle?

Tang Jiusheng was in a daze, someone gently wrapped around his neck behind him, his small palm was a little rough, not delicate, obviously caused by practicing swords since childhood.

This person gently rubbed Tang Jiusheng's neck with his face, Tang Jiusheng felt a little itchy, Tang Jiusheng smelled the familiar fragrance on her body, and immediately smiled warmly. Tang Jiusheng spit out the golden laurel leaf in his mouth, gently stroked her little hand, and turned around and asked, "Lingyu, why don't you go out of the city to watch your fat brother fight with people?"

Xiahou Lingyu closed her eyes gently, her long eyelashes fluttered, she didn't know why, she just liked to be coquettish with Tang Jiusheng more and more recently, maybe it was the beginning of love. Xiahou Lingyu laughed softly: "Senior Brother Chen."

I've already gone out of the city with them, what am I going to do? My lord, what are you doing here alone? Thinking about your sisters-in-law again?"

Tang Jiusheng said loudly without looking back: "Zhu'er, move the chair out again!" Zhu'er, who was far away, agreed, took out a chair from the house and put it on Tang Jiusheng's right side, Tang Jiusheng motioned to Xiahou Lingyu to sit down, Xiahou Lingyu sat on Tang Jiusheng's right, looking at Tang Jiusheng with a smile and fiery eyes. Tang Jiusheng couldn't stand her hot eyes, and begged for mercy: "Sister Lingyu, don't look at me with such eyes, I will tremble!"

Today, Xiahou Lingyu put her hair in a bun, inserted a golden step on her head, hung down seven or eight royal blue beads of different sizes, wore a peacock blue jacket, a pair of dark green flared pants, and a pair of purple suede boots on her feet, which looked quite delicate. Xiahou Lingyu deliberately said in a demonic manner: "Ah, my eldest prince, you, a person who often visits the Qinglou, will also be shy?"

Tang Jiusheng laughed, scratched his head, and said with some embarrassment: "What can I do when I go to the Qinglou?" that is, to see those beautiful girls, I just want to see, after all, I don't do anything." Before the fifth turn of the Heavenly Xuanjue, no matter how beautiful the girl is, I can't touch it!"

Zhu'er stood behind Tang Jiusheng, and when she heard Tang Jiusheng say this, her eyes were full of ridicule, she was laughing at Lu'er who was taken away by the guards a few days ago, and at that time, Lu'er still wanted the prince to favor her, but unfortunately our prince is not much different from the eunuch now!

Xiahou Lingyu suddenly became serious, and her words changed, "Brother Tang, in fact, you can do it alone, why do you want to mobilize thousands of troops?"

Tang Jiusheng couldn't help but be stunned, and asked with a smile, "Lingyu, what do you mean by this?"

Xiahou Lingyu said with a smile: "Just like a few nights ago, you successively transferred more than 4,000 people to rob the camp, but when the two armies faced each other, you captured Hou Jingxian alive with a single move.

Tang Jiusheng shook his head and said: "You girl, what you think is really simple! First, Niu Mandi is not fighting alone, there are a bunch of civil officials and military generals under his command to serve him, it may be easy to kill Niu Mandi, but can you guarantee that his subordinates will not rebel? Second, the son of a daughter will not sit down, and in the midst of the chaos, who dares to guarantee that there will be no strange people and strange people hiding in the army? When the time comes, if he is captured before he can get out of the army, will he not lose his morale?"

Xiahou Lingyu laughed, "It turns out that Brother Tang, you are also afraid of death!"

Tang Jiusheng was surprised: "I'm living a good life, why should I take the risk to find death? I died alone to kill a corrupt official, what is the benefit of the family and the country? As long as I sit in the Weiwang Mansion in Jiannan Road, or sit in the hall of the Yamen of Jianzhou County, those big and small officials will touch their black yarns and wonder if they have to do something good for the people, so as not to be beheaded by the Weiwang, which one do you say is more useful?"

Xiahou Lingyu just wanted to taunt Tang Jiusheng a few more words, but saw Fan Chenglin hurriedly walking in from outside the courtyard, his face was full of anxious looks, seeing Tang Jiusheng, Fan Chenglin hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Lord Wang, something happened!"

Tang Jiusheng knew that Fan Chenglin was a steady person, and if he was going to say that something had happened, it must be a big deal, because he would deal with the small things himself. Tang Jiusheng stood up and asked, "Brother Fan, what's wrong?"

Fan Chenglin sighed, "Lord Wang, there was an accident in front of the two armies, and He Changhu was beheaded by Huo Yunsheng, the general from Luye City!"

Tang Jiusheng was really taken aback, and blurted out: "Didn't I send the fat man to sweep He Changhu into the formation? Besides, Brother Chen also went, they wouldn't sit idly by and watch He Changhu be killed!"

Fan Chenglin sighed, "Don't mention it, according to the report of the spies, He Changhu first beheaded a captain named Lin Beihe in Luye City, and Huo Yunsheng rushed to avenge him." Huo Yunsheng first started with He Changhu, fought for 20 rounds without a win, turned the horse and left, He Changhu didn't know what to do, and chased after him closely, Jiang Xiaowei saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly chased after him, who knew that Huo Yunsheng would have a demon method, first fascinated He Changhu, and turned around with an axe, and beheaded He Changhu. Captain Jiang was a step slower and failed to save He Changhu, but he also fell into a spell and fell off his horse. ”

Tang Jiusheng was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Then how about my fat brother, won't he be cut down too?"

Fan Chenglin shook his head, "That's not true, Huo Yunsheng."

As soon as the axe went down, he failed to hack Captain Jiang to death, and Chen Chengshu led people to rush up behind, and Huo Yunsheng saw that there were many people on our side, so he took He Changhu's head and fled on horseback! Now Chen Chengshu is on the way back with the unconscious Captain Jiang and thousands of men and horses, and the spies have come back first to report the battle situation!"

Xiahou Lingyu almost jumped up from the chair, "What? Everyone has used witchcraft, is my Senior Brother Chen still standing there watching the excitement?" he ......" Xiahou Lingyu trembled angrily, and secretly scolded Senior Brother Chen in his heart for being too useless!

Tang Jiu let out a sigh of relief and calmed down. In turn, he persuaded Xiahou Lingyu and said: "Lingyu, don't complain, does Brother Chen want someone on his side to die? The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and casualties are inevitable, fortunately, the fat man was not captured alive, otherwise it would be a big trouble!"

Xiahou Lingyu was furious, and the small chest that had just developed trembled with anger, and rushed directly towards the outside of the courtyard. Tang Jiusheng shouted at her from behind, she was so angry that she didn't even look back.

Tang Jiusheng smiled bitterly, the fat man was born with a martial arts realm, although he was hit with an axe, it was not in danger of his life, but He Changhu was too demoralized by the beheading, originally he beheaded Lin Beihe, it was already a great achievement, but it was a pity that he won first and then lost, and the people in the city were panicked because of this.

Chen Chengshu first asked the fat man to be sent back to the county guard yamen for treatment, and he brought a thousand soldiers back to the barracks, and then turned around and returned to the county guard yamen. As soon as he got off the horse at the yamen, he saw Xiahou Lingyu running over in a hurry.

Xiahou Lingyu came to Chen Chengshu and asked angrily: "Senior Brother Chen, you went to watch the enemy raid the formation, everyone has already used demon magic, are you still standing aside and watching the excitement, watching our people being hacked to death by the enemy?"

Chen Chengshu couldn't cry and laughed: "Little junior sister, the incident happened suddenly, who would have thought that Huo Yunsheng would use witchcraft? Captain He beheaded Lin Beihe first, and then drew with Huo Yunsheng, Huo Yunsheng escaped, Captain He chased after him, or Captain Jiang said, Huo Yunsheng's martial arts are not low, and there must be tricks in defeat, so I chased after him first, and I also chased after him later, and when I arrived, something had already happened, and I had to risk death to save Captain Jiang. ”

Xiahou Lingyu blurted out: "Senior Brother Chen, you are so useless!"

Chen Chengshu's face turned red by Xiahou Lingyu's words, he originally liked the little junior sister very much, but in the past few days, he saw the little junior sister revolving around Tang Jiusheng every day, and his eyes were full of admiration, but he hated that Tang Jiusheng still ignored him, Chen Chengshu had long been angry in his heart. Chen Chengshu said angrily: "Who can be as useful as your big brother Tang? I became a vassal king at such a young age, I don't have a father who is a national teacher, let alone his martial arts skills, and he is not as handsome as he is!"

Xiahou Lingyu was robbed of two sentences by Chen Chengshu, he was really angry, stomped his foot fiercely, and said with a red face: "You are a bad person, I will never pay attention to you again!" After speaking, he turned around and ran back to the back house of the Yamen. Leaving Chen Chengshu standing there, his angry face was blue and red, neither to leave, nor to stay, and the soldiers standing guard on the side couldn't help but whisper.

Chen Chengshu gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, damn, the little junior sister ignored me again, what am I going to do when I come back? Full of enthusiasm turned cold, he silently returned to the lower place to get the package, went to the stable to take out the horses, flew on the horse, and went to the east of the city with the sword on his back.

Although the guards at the east gate recognized Chen Chengshu, but this was wartime, and he didn't dare to let him out of the city without a token, Chen Chengshu was furious, drew his sword on the spot and cut down a small colonel, and shouted: "King Wei sent me out of the city to do something urgent, and I didn't take a token in a hurry, who dares to stop me, and this person is guilty of the same crime! Quickly open the door!" Those guards knew that he was a person next to King Wei, and they immediately panicked, so they had to open the city gate and let him out.

Chen Chengshu rode straight to the enemy village on the official road, and the sentinel of Luye City had already reported back, Huo Yunsheng in the village heard that someone in the city broke into the camp with a single sword, and he was furious, and he got on the horse with an axe, and only brought his subordinates to meet the battle, Chen Chengshu was angry, and he didn't speak, he cut the sword, Huo Yunsheng didn't know his name, he only knew that he had just brought someone to save the fat man, but he didn't dare to underestimate the enemy, and raised a big axe to meet him.

The two fought for more than 30 rounds in front of the battle, Chen Chengshu's martial arts were higher, but unfortunately his strength was weaker, Huo Yunsheng's strength was very strong, and his martial arts were worse, and the two sides were barely evenly matched. Chen Chengshu saw that he couldn't win, he no longer fell in love with the war, he made a false move, and suddenly rushed over, Huo Yunsheng thought that he was going to move the rescuers, and he didn't chase him, so he ordered the soldiers not to release arrows, let him go to find someone, and then send reinforcements first.

Who knew that Chen Chengshu did not go to move the rescue soldiers, but rode back to Tongtian Mountain angrily.
