At night, the starry sky is obscured by a dark cloud, and the whole land is shrouded in darkness, and you can't see your fingers.

There are torches lit up on the ancient city of Tian, and there is a samurai wearing thick armor defending with a sword in three steps on the eaves of the entire city wall, and directly above the city gate, a middle-aged man in civilian clothes looked at the darkness and blur in the distance, frowned, and had an ominous premonition in his heart,

"Vice General Liu, pass the order, and change another batch of guards tonight, and if there is any dereliction of duty, military law will be engaged in it, and it will not be tolerated.

Also, send another 500 elite soldiers to guard Ziyaoshi, and if there is anything unusual, immediately send a signal to warn. ”

After Chu Lan finished speaking, a bearded general beside him nodded and led the order, ready to order the chief general who was guarding the city.

"Pan Shen, I didn't expect you to become the deputy commander of the Long Xiang Army now, but it's good luck, but I will prove to you that I am right and you are wrong. ”

Thinking of Pan Shen, Chu Lan's eyes were melodious, with a hint of nostalgia, and then he unconsciously touched the right side of his neck, where there was a faint sword scar, which was that person's masterpiece.

Here, the Long Xiang army is in full swing at this time to dig tunnels, are all successful warriors, more than 3,000 people at the same time, the movement is huge, dust and sand and gravel flying, it doesn't take long for a bottomless pit to appear, according to this, it is not so much a tunnel, it is better to dig a dungeon.

"The progress is going fairly well, the soil here is soft enough to be completed before dawn. And the dark clouds are hanging tonight, which is also a good cover for us. ”

Shao Kang stood behind Pan Shen, with excitement on his face, as long as he captured Tiangu City before the arrival of the big army, it would be a great achievement, he had been mixed in the rivers and lakes for so long, and his life was nourishing, why did he come to join the army?

Isn't it that you still have the intention of making meritorious contributions? Meritorious service, meritorious service in the front, and establishment of the cause in the back, this is a cause and effect relationship, without merit, what do you take to establish a career?

Pan Shen nodded, his left hand gently stroked the somewhat cold hilt, he knew Shao Kang's mind very well, because this was what he used to be, eager for meritorious deeds, but it was always difficult to get what he wanted.

"Do you know Chu Lan, this top ten generals under the Emperor?"

Pan Shen's tone was fluctuating, which made Shao Kang a little puzzled, but the general had a question, and the general would answer, and said,

"Back to the deputy capital, the villain has heard of this person, who was originally a captain of my Dayong military, and later rebelled and defected to the emperor and rebel, but he is a man without a king and a father. ”

Shao Kang also thought carefully, looking at Pan Shen's expression and daytime words, the two should be old acquaintances, and even fought each other, so belittled each other, maybe they can please Pan Shen, and when the time comes, they will assign tasks, and they will not sit on the cold bench.

"That's right, but a God Refining Grandmaster, as a military captain, don't you think it's too low?

Back then, Chu Lan was still my senior, just like you and me, he fought step by step from the bottom to make meritorious contributions, more than 20 years, and his accumulated merits were enough to achieve the position of general, not to mention his cultivation, but the result was just a small captain, how sad. ”

Speaking of this, Pan Shen was a little depressed, and when others thought of him, he continued,

"Back then, Chu Lan had recruited a group of colleagues who were as depressed as him, and I was one of them. ”

Speaking of this, Shao Kang's face changed, he slowly took a few steps back, looked at Pan Shen vigilantly, and looked at it, the two seemed to be in love, maybe there was collusion, so he would be in danger.

Although he didn't look back, Pan Shen sensed Shao Kang's state, shook his head and smiled,

"Don't worry, I naturally didn't agree back then, and I had a fight with him, and in the end I beat him by half a move.

In fact, everyone knows that the emperor has no hope, but he is unwilling, chasing a dream for more than 20 years has become an obsession, and he does not hesitate to embark on this road in order to fulfill his long-cherished wish. ”

Pan Shen seems to be talking to Shao Kang, but in fact he is more like talking to himself.

It stands to reason that a grandmaster and martial artist, when he leaves the army, has a promising future wherever he goes, whether he is starting a sect or establishing a family, he has capital and confidence, and he may be happier than being a general.

But things don't look at it that way, in the future, Chu Lan's merits are enough, his martial arts are enough, and he can't sit on the general's position, which becomes a breath of anger, a hatred, and the darkness of the military is not lower than officialdom politics at all, especially in the area of military exploits.

Pan Shen knew Chu Lan's thoughts very well, didn't you look down on me? Didn't you high-level corpse vegetarian eaters stammer with those good-for-nothing sons of the family?

Okay, I will join the rebel army, become a general, and one day in the future, I will lead the troops to fight you people who cry, let you know how powerful I Chu Lan is, and let you know that I Chu Lan is a hundred times stronger than those wastes, a thousand times.

It's a normal idea, this is the same as the modern workplace is suppressed, and if you have the opportunity to change jobs, of course you have to go, and if you have the opportunity in the future, you must slap your face, so that you can get out of a bad breath.

However, unlike the workplace, Chu Lan's choice was wrong, and the price of the mistake was death, and Pan Shen sighed that if he was impulsive back then, he was afraid that he would face the terrifying Dayonglong Court today.

In fact, speaking of which, Chu Lan is like the protagonist in the middle, with thirty years of ambition in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, but he does not have that life and creation.

Although Huangtian is a hidden dragon, he is not a real dragon, although he Chu Lan has some talents, it is not enough to turn the world upside down and dominate the world, and the result is of course doomed.

However, while Pan Shen's self-talk dispelled Shao Kang's doubts, he was also a little worried, if he and the others made great contributions, would they be plundered by others? This is a very serious question.

Pan Shen turned to look at Shao Kang, and saw a fat face distorted, and his facial features were distorted as if they were squeezed together, and he shook his head with a smile,

"But you don't need to worry, because your top official, our emperor, he still disdains these small achievements, killed Li Binghe, defeated Wang Xuan, and indirectly helped the commander to exterminate tens of thousands of emperors and heavenly troops, this credit is much greater than the credit we shared and captured the ancient city of heaven. ”

Speaking of this, Shao Kang breathed a sigh of relief, although he was not interested in Gan Yunting and a few people, but he still had some respect and fear for Huang Fuxu, this is a real ruthless man, and he is expected to be a legendary Tianjiao powerhouse, compared to him, he is a loach on the ground.

"Okay, it's too much to say, thinking about it for a while, maybe old friends will have to fight, and there is some emotion, but it makes you laugh.

Let's prepare, when the underground passage is opened, I will personally lead the team to go, I don't know if it is blocked by the water river or the ground stone, I hope it is the latter. ”

If it is a river of water, then it is a luxury to want to go straight to the city from underground, if it is the latter, with his current cultivation and combat strength, there are still some possibilities, and these few possibilities are the key to the victory.

In essence, their Longxiang army has experienced the battle of the first-line pass, and its combat power far exceeds that of the defenders of the ancient city on this day, and what they are afraid of is not that they can't capture the city, but that the loss is too great and it is difficult to explain to Huangfu Xu, so they find another way.

Pan Shen was confident that as long as he entered the city and broke the crossbow on the eaves, Tiangu City would not be able to defend them.
