Chapter 344: Pharmacist Li, you have fallen into the hands of Pindao
Haizhou City belongs to Donghai County and is the gateway to the north of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River. Its geographical location is very important.
In the fourth year of Wude, His Majesty Li Yuan specially set up the General Administrative Office in Haizhou, and sent Wang Changxie, one of his confidants from the Sixth Unified Army, to Haizhou as the General Administrative Office, with jurisdiction over the four prefectures of Hai, Lian, Huan and Dongchu.
.
When the sky is slightly brighter, the outside of Haizhou City, located on the coast of the East China Sea, is already covered with thick fog, and no one can be seen within a few meters on the opposite side.
Although there was a lot of fog in Haizhou before, it seems to be particularly heavy this time!
"General Manager..."
A guard from Haizhou City said to Wang Changxie who was standing at the top of the city with a nervous look on his face.
"You don't have to worry so much. Under such a heavy fog, anyone who enters the fog will lose their way, so you don't have to worry that someone will take advantage of this moment to attack us."
"Maybe you're right!"
Wang Changxie first confirmed the other party's statement, but still said with some worry.
"But my eyelids have been twitching since yesterday, so I am always worried...wait, did you hear anything?"
"sound?"
The guard listened carefully and said in confusion.
"There is no sound..."
Wang Changxie also listened carefully, but it seemed that he really didn't hear anything.
"Could it be that someone heard it wrong just now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a human head suddenly sticking out from under the city wall not far from them. Then he saw the head suddenly jumped up and landed on the city battlements. It turned out to be a man who had climbed to the battlements of the city wall.
A nearby soldier jumped in.
While Wang Changxie and the others were stunned, the soldier jumped in from outside the city wall, chopped up a Tang soldier with a knife, and shouted.
"Xu Shaozong, under the command of Duke Fu, is here!"
"..."
When Haizhou City was attacked, fierce fighting was also going on in Xuanzhou City south of Danyang.
"Come on!"
A dark-skinned young man wearing leather armor, holding a shield in one hand and a scimitar in the other, shouted loudly to the tattooed beastmen around him.
"Whoever reaches the city first will be rewarded with a hundred swords!"
After hearing his words, the beastmen howled excitedly one by one, and rushed towards the wall of Xuanzhou City like a tide.
Not far below the city wall, a handsome middle-aged man was sitting on horseback, looking up at the battle on the city wall, his eyes as calm as ice.
"Now the garrison of Xuanzhou City has been attracted by Zhidai to the south. Hong Fu, you go and notify Li Guangdu and ask him to lead his army of slang soldiers to take advantage of the lack of defense in the west to get some city walls."
Come down, if he can do it, it may be his first victory in this battle!"
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, a beautiful woman wearing smart clothes next to him waved the red whisk in her hand and said worriedly.
"Pharmacist, the battlefield is dangerous and dangerous. If I leave..."
"No problem!"
The middle-aged man said calmly.
"I have calculated it very clearly. The defenders in Xuanzhou City now have absolutely no energy to rush out. It is very safe here. On the contrary, Li Guangdu, the commander of the slang army, is unruly. If he randomly sends a messenger, he may not be able to suppress it.
he."
"All right!"
After hearing the middle-aged man's words, the red-haired girl nodded, then rushed out in the west direction with a wave of her horse's head.
"Mr. Li, you made a miscalculation this time..."
Just as Hongfu Nu left, the handsome middle-aged man felt his shoulders sink slightly, a sharp sword was placed on his shoulders, and then a clear voice sounded from behind him.
"Now you have fallen into the hands of Pindao. Hurry up and let those Nanbarbarians work harder to defeat Xuanzhou!"
"snort!"
The handsome middle-aged man snorted coldly, lowered his head suddenly, then drew his sword with his backhand and swung it behind him.
"Even if I die, I won't...well!"
Halfway through the words, the handsome middle-aged man realized that it seemed that the other party was not asking him to stop attacking, but asking him to work harder.
Did you hear it wrong?
Whoosh!
The knife he swung with his backhand flew directly through the air. There was nothing in front of the blade, not a single person.
Bang bang bang...
At this moment, a burst of applause suddenly sounded from the head of the handsome middle-aged man. Holding a horizontal knife in his hand, he looked up, and then he realized that in the sky in front of him, there was someone in white clothes flying in the air.
Handsome Taoist priest.
After seeing him raise his head, the Taoist priest calmly raised his hand and saluted him.
"Qing Weizi, the supervisor of the Taishi Bureau of the Tang Dynasty, Yin Qing Guanglu, met Senior Brother Yao."
"You said you are from the Taishi Bureau of the Tang Dynasty..."
The handsome middle-aged Li Jing looked up at the Taoist priest and asked very warily.
"What credentials do you have?"
"The credentials of a poor man..."
The Taoist priest in white turned a snow-white whisk over in his hand and gently tapped his head twice. Then he pulled out a bag from his waist with his other hand.
"Pindao remembers that when he was promoted to Doctor Yinqing Guanglu, the saint once gave him a fish charm...forget it! It's too troublesome to take this out...then..."
As he spoke, the white-robed Taoist priest reached out and took out a letter from his sleeve, holding it in his hand and shaking it.
"Can this edict given to you by Chang'an Political Affairs Hall be used as a certificate?"
Looking at the document in the other party's hand, Li Jing narrowed his eyes slightly.
Although he has not yet received the so-called edict, some clues can be seen just from the appearance of the document and the exposed seal, and it should not be fake.
"Since you are from the Taishi Bureau..."
The handsome middle-aged Li Jing looked up at the Taoist priest with a look of confusion on his face.
"Then why are you here..."
"Of course I'm here to win over you, Li Jing, the King of Pagodas,"
The Taoist priest in white smiled slightly at Li Jing, and after saying something casually, he turned his head and looked at Xuanzhou City, where the battle was going on behind him.
"Forget it, don't talk about these irrelevant things on the battlefield. You should quickly capture Xuanzhou, and we can talk about other things!"
Li Jing looked up again at the white-robed Taoist priest floating in the air, sorted out his thoughts, and then nodded calmly.
"That's fine!"
While Kong Qing and Li Jing were talking, Hong Fu seemed to have informed Li Guangdu, the slang soldier on the west side, of the order to start the attack. Then he saw that the intensity of the battle on the west side of the city wall suddenly increased.
"Brothers, fight with me..."
Looking from a distance, a burly man with tattoos on his face rushed up to the city waving a shield, chopped down a guard soldier with a knife, and shouted loudly.
"The first credit must be mine, Li Guangdu!"
After seeing the ferocious-looking Li Guangdu and the slang men behind him who were covered in tattoos and looked no different from ghosts, the defenders collapsed instantly. Li Guangdu, the slang soldier, only led two men to fight at the top of the city.
With one sweep, they captured the western city wall of Xuanzhou.
"quick!"
Li Guangdu waved his hand and directed his soldiers.
"Crush down the city wall, control the city gate, and let the brothers outside the city come in..."
Just when Li Guangdu was about to open the west gate of Xuanzhou and let in the soldiers outside, Feng Zhidai had already led the soldiers to the south gate from the front.
"Well...the overall situation has been decided!"
Kong Qing was suspended in the air and looked at Xuanzhou City and nodded slightly.
"Mihara Li Jing is indeed worthy of his reputation. He is worthy of being a famous general through the ages... Han Qinhu's recognized successor."
Li Jing silently raised his head and glanced at Kong Qing without saying a word.
At this moment, Hong Fu Girl was seen rushing back quickly on horseback, looking at Kong Qing warily with a pair of almond-shaped eyes.
"Hello, Hong Fu!"
Kong Qing didn't pay any attention to Hongfu Nu's gaze as if to guard against thieves, and raised his hand to salute again.
"I have admired the names of the Three Fengchen Heroes for a long time, and seeing them today brings me comfort for the rest of my life."
After hearing Kong Qing's words, Hongfu Nu did not answer, but first cast a tentative gaze on Li Jing aside. After seeing the other party nodded slightly, she raised her hand in return.
"I don't dare to take a big name. The so-called Three Heroes of Feng Chen are just slaves and pharmacists who followed the eldest brother Zhang Zhongjian when they followed him, and they got some false names that are not worth mentioning."
"A false reputation? Haha..."
Kong Qing looked Hong Fu girl up and down, his eyes were full of energy. Looking at Hong Fu, his heart felt cold, as if the other person's eyes could see through her clothes, which made her almost subconsciously fight back.
However, this feeling only lasted for a moment, because the handsome little Taoist priest opposite just glanced at him and then raised his head, making Hong Fu wonder if he was too sensitive.
Then, she heard the Taoist priest in white say with emotion.
"A female swordsman like you, Hong Fu, who is as good as a real person, can actually say the words crow, sui luan and phoenix with sincerity. It really makes me curious about what kind of hero the Qiu bearded guest, the leader of the three heroes in Fengchen, is."
After hearing Kong Qing's words, Hong Fu was immediately heartbroken.
What she learned was not ordinary Taoism, but a stealth assassination technique like Hidden Gate or Kongkong Jingjing. From the time she mastered it until now, only two people can see the details of her cultivation at a glance.
One is the bearded monk Zhang Zhongjian, and the other is the little Taoist priest in front of him.
"Oh..."
After Kong Qingxin pointed out Hongfu's strength, he turned to look at Xuanzhou City.
"Take down the south city gate as well, Senior Brother Yao, it's time to attack!"
"..."
After seizing the city, cleaning up, and chasing down... After the whole set of things was completed, almost two hours had passed.
During this period of time, Kong Qing followed Li Jing and Hong Fu and ran back and forth to check the warehouses and government documents in Xuanzhou City, and then arranged for rewards for those who had made merit this time...
Kong Qing was a little impatient in the end!
When he was at Sanniangzi's military camp before, he never felt that Sanniangzi had to deal with so many things.
Is this the difference between a famous general and a famous general through the ages?
"alright……"
After Li Jing signed his name on the last document that required his approval, he finally turned his head and looked at him.
"Thank you, Taoist Priest, for your tolerance. Now that certain matters have been dealt with, Taoist Priest, you can tell me what you have to say."
"The poor thing..."
Kong Qing gently held his chin with the white jade whisk in his hand, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Well, Senior Brother Yao, if Pindao gives you a chance to become a god, do you want it?"
Li Jing blinked silently, feeling confused and not knowing how to answer.
Is there something wrong with this Taoist priest?
"Forget it, it's too early to say this now..."
After seeing Li Jing's expression, Kong Qing quickly changed the topic, reached into his sleeve and took out the letter he had just shown to Li Jing, and handed it over to the other party.
"Brother Yao, this is the edict of the saint. It was issued through the Political Hall. You should read it first, then pack your things and follow Pindao!"
Li Jing still took the document handed over by Kong Qing with a blank look on his face and blinked.
