When the fat man heard that Tang Jiusheng was going to release Lin Guanqin, he was really anxious. He stepped forward and pushed away the government servant who wanted to release Lin Guanqin. He grabbed Lin Guanqin by the collar, stared at him, and said sadly: "Old Tang, are you crazy?" ?You said you want to put the enemy general back after all the hard work? Luye is still surrounding the city with a superior force! Moreover, after we fight, there will be many casualties among soldiers. If we don’t chop them into pieces to pay homage to the souls of the dead, how can we be worthy of the dead soldiers? A woman’s benevolence will suffer greatly!”

When Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong heard the fat man said that they would be chopped into pieces to pay homage to the dead soldiers, their faces turned pale with fear. Xiahou Lingyu, Shui Ruyue, Shen Xiaoyu, Ning Chenggang, Hou Jingxian and others also expressed that they could not let go, so Guo Xiaowei solemnly drew his sword and wanted to kill Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong on the spot. Only the weird monk sat on the chair with squinted eyes and a smile on his face, leisurely drinking his small wine.

Tang Jiusheng stood up from the chair and said contemptuously: "What will happen to a person like this if we put him back? I didn't use the first-level martial arts before the formation, so why should I take him down anyway? There are several warlocks hidden in his formation. They are pretending to be mysterious and mysterious, but I don’t fall into his scheme. What can he do to me? I just want to let them go back now and defeat them again in front of the battle! No one can persuade me. Such an enemy is like dirt in my eyes. Like a chicken or a dog!"

After hearing this, Lin Guanqin couldn't help but jump up from the cold bluestone ground, "Okay! Tang Jiusheng, you have the guts. If you dare to let me go, I will immediately regroup and let's fight again! I am not losing today." In your hands, it is better to say that I lose in my own hands. If I fight you openly, you will never be able to defeat me! So even if you capture me now, I will still be dissatisfied, but your subordinates are against it. You Do you have the guts to make the decision and let me go?"

Tang Jiusheng looked Lin Guanqin up and down, looking at him as if he were a fool. After a while, he sneered, "Do you think I am a three-year-old child, and I will let you go immediately after being provoked? Let me tell you, I want to let you go, and it has nothing to do with other people. , I am the prince, and I have a lot of orders. No matter how reluctant they are, they have to listen to me! I will let you two go back today. If I had caught you two again in front of the two armies, you would not be as lucky as today! "

Tang Jiusheng turned his head and looked at Cheng Zifei, "Zifei, take my command flag and send these two people out of the city. Don't hurt them on the way!" Shen Xiaoyu, who was standing behind Tang Jiusheng, held the command flag in his arms, but did not want to hand it to Cheng Zi. No, but seeing Tang Jiusheng's face sinking, she had no choice but to hand the command flag to Cheng Zifei reluctantly. Cheng Zifei took the command flag reluctantly, gnashing his teeth with hatred, wishing he could chop these two pieces into pieces right away. .

Shui Ruyue originally wanted to give some advice, but looking at Tang Jiu Sheng's face, she had no choice but to keep silent. Tang Jiu Sheng said again: "Zifei, we must let these two people return to their camp alive. When they get to the city gate, put their weapons away." Return the horses to them. Anyone who dares to disobey my orders will be subject to military law!"

Cheng Zifei reluctantly took the order flag, trembling with anger, holding his breath and said: "I will obey the order!" Gritting his teeth, he held the order flag and escorted Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong down. After leaving the gate of the county governor's office, Cheng Zifei Seeing that there were only a dozen sergeants standing guard on the left and right, Fei angrily kicked Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong several times, and cursed at the same time: "The prince said that you should go back alive, but he didn't say that he would not let me beat you! If the prince hadn't protected you, I would have cut off your heads long ago!"

Tang Jiusheng was not in sight, and Lin Guanqin did not dare to talk back, but silently led Hao Zheng out of the city. Someone nearby had already learned the news, and came over to return the horses to Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong. More than ten soldiers followed Cheng Zifei.

They were escorted to the south city gate and Lin Guanqin's weapons were returned. Hao Zhengtong's knife was cut off by Tang Jiusheng. The city gate captain ordered people to open the city gate and let the two men out of the city.

Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong didn't let out a sigh of relief until they left the city gate, fearing that Tang Jiusheng would suddenly regret it. Hao Zhengtong was so excited that he escaped with his life, and said loudly: "General Lin, I thought it was over, but I didn't expect that I was still alive.

It's a miracle that you came out! God bless you! Your camp has been taken away. Why don't you just follow me and let's go back to my camp! Let's gather people back and discuss it carefully before deciding whether to fight or fight.

withdraw!"

Lin Guanqin's Chinese army stronghold had been taken away, and he was at odds with Huo Yunsheng. He wanted to move troops to the west of the city, but he was afraid of being ambushed alone. Lin Guanqin thought about it, but had no way to go for the time being, so he nodded and said: "Okay, then I will

Let’s go to your camp first, then I’ll go to the west and north of the city to gather those soldiers and horses, and then we’ll have a showdown with Tang Jiu Sheng!”

Lin Guanqin followed Hao Zhengtong, and the two of them rode towards the east of the city, fearing that there would be pursuers behind them. There was a roar of wind, cranes, and soldiers all over the grass and trees along the way.

Every time a dog barks, he is afraid of being chased by soldiers. He is as anxious as a bereaved dog and as busy as a fish that has slipped through the net, rushing towards Hao Zhengtong's Dazhai in the east of the city.

In the evening, the sun had just set, and the flower hall in the back house of the Jianzhou County Sheriff's Yamen was brightly lit. People were sitting around eating, the water was like the moon, the dragons were flying in the sky, Cheng Zifei, Ning Chenggang, Hou Jingxian, Zheng Zheng, Xiahou Lingyu, Shui

Rulong, Chen Chengshu and others were all there. The maids and maids were passing the dishes to the table like a revolving lantern. Shen Xiaoyu stood behind Tang Jiusheng who was in charge.

The fat man's face turned red and he asked angrily: "Brother Tang, what's the matter? I finally caught him, but you actually let him go! Once these two people left, they were like fish swimming in the sea and tigers in the mountains.

Where else to capture them? They still have at least 20,000 soldiers and horses outside the city. We have no advantage at all in terms of military strength. We finally won the battle, so why not behead their leader and then throw the heads out?

, they won’t fight anymore!”

Tang Jiusheng smiled and did not answer, but raised his glass to persuade the fat man to drink. Fan Chenglin, who was sitting next to Tang Jiusheng, put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "Fat Master, you only know one but not the other. These two people have actually surrendered to the prince. This is the prince."

Send them back to capture Huo Yunsheng. The two of them go back and prepare. Tomorrow night they will lead troops to capture Huo Yunsheng. Come and surrender, your illness will be cured, and you can get tens of thousands of troops for free. This is no better than killing them.

A hundred times stronger?"

When the fat man heard what Fan Chenglin said, he suddenly realized. After thinking for a while, he felt that it made sense, and a smile appeared on his face. He scratched his head, stood up with the wine glass, and said embarrassedly: "Old Tang, Fatty, I am a real person."

I'm not as carefree as you, and I'm far less considerate than you, so don't get angry with me. The fat man is only suitable for fighting in battle, and he's not as good as you at engaging in these conspiracies!"

Fan Chenglin and Tang Jiusheng looked at each other and laughed. Tang Jiusheng picked up his wine glass and joked: "Fat man, is this how your village praises people? Are you praising me or hurting me?" In the Zhenghua Hall

When everyone at the dinner party heard what Fan Chenglin said, they were all relieved. It turned out that the prince had planned a back-up plan. Why would he be angry if he had known about it? Xiahou Lingyu and others also stood up and toasted to Tang Jiu Sheng. Tang Jiu Sheng would not refuse anyone who came.

.

The originally unpleasant atmosphere was swept away. Everyone chatted and laughed, ate and drank, exchanged glasses, and returned home happily. Then everyone waited eagerly for Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong to kidnap Huo Yunsheng and surrender.

After the dinner, Tang Jiusheng accompanied Shui Ruyue for a walk in the back garden of the Sheriff's Mansion. Only Shen Xiaoyu followed them. Shui Ruyue asked quietly: "Little brother, that's not right. Capture those two thieves." Come on, I've been by your side and I haven't seen you talking to them alone. Oh my god, why did they surrender and you wanted to kidnap Huo Yunsheng? You're not trying to fool everyone, are you?"

Tang Jiusheng saw that there was no one around except Shen Xiaoyu, and then he laughed softly and said: "This is a plan made by Mr. Fan and I. Otherwise, how could we defeat those people outside the city. Today we won a great victory. They only beheaded 2,000 people and captured more than 3,000 people. There were more than 20,000 enemies. How could they be defeated so easily? It is better to outwit the enemy than to outwit them. Huo Yunsheng had conflicts with Lin Guanqin, and he and Hao Zhengtong did not trust each other very much. We How can we not take advantage of it?”

Shui Ruyue was very confused, shook her head and said: "Little senior brother, I don't understand what you are saying! Will letting them go back intensify their conflicts?"

Tang Jiusheng chuckled and sat on a large rock in the shape of an ox next to the small artificial lake in the back garden. Shui Ruyue also sat beside him, and Shen Xiaoyu stood silently beside him. Tang Jiusheng reached out and picked up a small stone and threw it into the center of the lake, slowly and calmly. Said: "Although Lu'er has been arrested, there are still many people working as undercover agents in our county. At this time, she heard that Lin Guanqin and Hao Zhengtong had surrendered to us, and they went back to organize their troops to arrest them. What should she think about arresting Huo Yunsheng? Think about it from her perspective!"

Shui Ruyue's eyes lit up and she asked in a low voice: "Are you and Mr. Fan going to use this spy to carry out counterintelligence and let her help us pass on information and completely alienate the relationship between the three of them?"

Tang Jiusheng said with a smile: "You guys can be taught! If they don't get into trouble themselves, with the few soldiers and horses we have in the city, it won't be that easy to defeat them head-on! With tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, it won't be easy to defeat them, not to mention the fact that we have recently taken advantage of them. People in Xia Jianzhou are unstable. Today we have gathered eight thousand soldiers and horses to go out to fight in the city, which is already the limit. There are almost no usable soldiers in the city, and even the government officials have been sent out to patrol the streets and defend the city!"

Shui Ruyue nodded and said: "Well, but they are not fools. If you see through this strategy, wouldn't it be beautiful if you let them back?"

Tang Jiusheng laughed loudly, "Yue'er, just watch! They

Guaranteed to fall into the trap! By the way, we have to inform Zhonglai and Sun Jiangdong and ask them to help perform a trick. Jin Chengzhang, who has been deep in the trenches and high forts outside the city, will also have a place to use. Then we will kill them all. , I'm afraid someone will come over and surrender first!" As soon as Tang Jiusheng finished speaking, he heard Linghu Yu coughing from afar.

Soon, Linghu Yu rushed to the front of Tang Jiusheng, bowed and saluted: "My subordinate, Owl Guard Linghu Yu, please see the prince! A letter has arrived from the prince's palace!" After saying that, he took out a letter written with fire paint from his arms. The sealed letter came and he presented it to Tang Jiusheng with both hands. Tang Jiusheng took the secret letter and checked the lacquer seal first. When he saw that there were no signs of removal, he waved his hand to signal Linghu Yu to excuse himself. Tang Jiusheng opened the letter and read it. After finishing, his face looked happy and he burst out laughing.

Seeing that Tang Jiusheng was very happy, Shui Ruyue asked with a smile: "Little senior brother, what is going on, are you so happy?"

Tang Jiusheng raised the secret letter in his hand and said proudly: "Songshan County has been captured by Zhao Tieyi and others, together with Pingyuan Princess Yin Ruonan, Sikong Jing and others. The county governor Xiao Cheng has committed suicide, and Zhao Tieyi has taken over

After arriving at Songshan City, Mr. Zishan and Brother Xin had already sent people over to hand over the affairs of Songshan County. The Yujiang River was lost, Songshan was also lost, and the land was full of cattle. Another city was lost, and another arm was broken. His Luye City

There are no reinforcements at all! Shouldn’t I be happy? What’s more, it’s the third time of happiness.”

Shui Ruyue nodded and smiled: "This is indeed something we should be happy about. What else is there to be happy about? Three happy things coming to our door?"

Tang Jiusheng nodded and said: "It's three happy events, yes! At the same time, Huzhou sent two thousand soldiers and horses with food and grass to rescue Jiangzhou captain Cheng Rugao, but the big bandits surrounding Anshu couldn't defeat Anshu, they were extremely rogues.

On this occasion, there was a rebellion in the nest. He Yongjiang, the leader of Laolongshan Dazhai, led his men to attack the one-eyed Ji Tianda of Dufeng Mountain at night, killed Ji Tianda, captured his soldiers, and fled back to the village.

Zhang Yuanyuan, the bandit from Jiejia Mountain, saw that the situation was not going well, so he also led his troops to withdraw! Do you think you were happy after hearing these three pieces of news?"

Shui Ruyue said with a wide-eyed smile: "You should indeed be happy. The siege of Anshu has been solved, and Songshan has been captured. Now there is almost no cattle captured alive!"

Tang Jiusheng clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Niu Mandi thought I came to Jianzhou to die, but he didn't expect that I would make him miserable! He wanted to take Jianzhou back from my hands. It was just a dream!

After I finish dealing with these guys outside Jianzhou City, I will personally go to Luye City to have a heart-to-heart talk with Niu Mandi. Just because he wants to be the king of Jiannan Road? Then you have to ask me whether Mr. Tang will agree.

!”

Shui Ruyue said thoughtfully: "I wonder if Yin Quan will send people to rescue Niu Mandi again! After all, his Blood Shadow Hall is also pervasive. At present, it seems that the strength of our owl guards is obviously not as good as Yin Quan's.

Where is the Blood Shadow Hall!"

Shen Xiaoyu interjected at the side and said softly: "Why do you need to worry, Princess? No matter how powerful the Blood Shadow Hall is, it won't be able to show off that much prestige in Jiannan Road! At worst, let the prince send more troops to hunt down those who sneaked into Jiannan Road.

Even if we can’t catch the members of the Blood Shadow Hall, we still have to keep them on tenterhooks all day long! How can they have time to save Niu Mandi when they are busy taking care of themselves? As long as they are afraid, we can take advantage of the chaos and cause trouble!”

Shui Ruyue nodded, gently caressed Shen Xiaoyu's back, and said with a smile: "Well, you girl has a good idea! In this case, you will be responsible for this matter when the time comes. Lead the troops to hunt down the members of Blood Shadow Hall and mess with him.

I'm so restless! By then our girl Xiaoyu will be able to write history and leave a colorful page in the history books!"

Shen Xiaoyu stuck out his tongue and was secretly amused. He said it as if you were much older than me. Shen Xiaoyu shook his head and said seriously: "Princess, your servant is just a small person. History is written by big people. It's not our turn yet."

A person with the status of a slave comes forward."

Tang Jiusheng looked at Shen Xiaoyu and smiled slightly, "You don't have to belittle yourself. History is written by big people and small people. Looking at it, they are all big people. How can you play it? Don't worry, about defeating these two people outside the city.

There are more than 10,000 people, and I am already confident!"

At night, the county governor's office became quiet, and Jianzhou City also became completely quiet. In the quiet night, in the residence of the maids in the back house of the county governor's office, a window suddenly opened gently, and a pigeon quietly fluttered its wings.

It came out and disappeared into the night sky in the blink of an eye. There were three men in black crouching on the ridge of the house. The three black men watched the pigeon fly away, then quietly jumped down from the house and quietly sneaked into the room where the pigeon was released.
