Su Han blinked at Yunlan, and she immediately said: "Princess, if you have anything to say, just say it. I am here to listen."
"I want to help you out!" Su Han smiled humbly at her.
"Okay! Please give me your instructions, Princess!" Yun Lan immediately stood up and said.
When Su Han reached out, Yun Shi had already handed a small notebook to her, and at the same time pulled out a charcoal pencil from her head.
After Su Han smiled at her, he started drawing on the booklet, and then wrote a few more words, then tore off the paper, folded it, and handed it to Yunlan: "Please run over and give this to Xia
Qing, tell her that the original plan has changed, and ask her to adjust the combat plan by referring to the picture above. It seems that Qingluan will take the lead again."
"Yes!" Yun Lan put her things away, turned around, mounted her horse neatly, and ran towards Yanzhen.
Xiao Muting came over and looked at Yunlan who had already run away: "Are you really prepared to do this?"
"Of course, don't let such a good opportunity go to waste. If he moves quickly, he should be able to get a hot bite. Otherwise, he will just run away hungry." Su Han said with raised lips.

Half an hour later, loud cannon fire was heard outside the south gate of Yanzhen. Everyone stood up and looked there, with smiles on their faces.
But the people in the city were already in a panic. Jingchuan Bai jumped out of the largest inn in the city and looked in the direction of the city gate. He saw that there was so much anger there that he immediately ordered to leave the city immediately.
There were plates of untouched dishes left on the table in the inn.
After it became dark, a rope was suddenly shot towards the city tower from the four city gates of Yanzhen. Before the guards on the city wall could understand what was going on, they saw several black shadows flying over their heads.
Before they could see who it was, they felt something flying towards them, piercing through their armor. When they looked down, they saw a crossbow arrow stuck in their chest.
The four city gates were attacked at the same time, and these personal skills were extremely fast and their movements were clean and neat. The people guarding the city did not notice that something happened on the city wall, but there, the guards had been changed.
After Xia Qing captured an official, he asked him: "Where are His Majesty Long Anguo and the troops who entered the town this afternoon?"
"Let's go!" The official was so frightened that he was obviously leading a team of twenty people on patrol, but in the blink of an eye, he was the only one left. These people were like the sky.
He was like a surprise soldier who dropped, wearing black clothes and a black hood, only revealing a pair of cold eyes, and there was a cold dagger pressed under his neck. If he moved, he would be dead.
"When did you leave?" Xia Qing asked gloomily.
The official immediately replied: "After the city gate was bombed, everyone left."
"What did you take away?" Xia Qing asked again.
He immediately replied: "All the edible things were taken away, and all the food in our city defense camp was taken away. Fifty horses and ten carriages in the camp were also taken away.
"
"Direction!" Xia Qing asked with a darker look.
"Go to the North City Gate!" He replied, pointing in the direction of the North City.
Xia Qing nodded: "Brother, thank you for your cooperation!"
"No, no thanks..." The man thought he had escaped. Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he was knocked unconscious by Xia Qing's knife.
"Send a signal to His Highness and the captain!" Xia Qing said with his hands on his waist.
A bright yellow flame shot up into the sky.
Xiao Muting and Su Han, who were already standing outside the city, saw a flash of understanding in their eyes.
"Run away!" Su Han said.
Xiao Muting patted her on the back of the shoulder and ordered: "Enter the city!"
The south city gate had been opened and they entered Yanzhen smoothly. At this time, all the officials of Yanzhen who were kneeling on the ground on both sides of the street were terrified.
Xiao Muting looked at the Long Anguo officials kneeling on the ground, his expressions so cold that they could freeze. The chill emanating from his body made those kneeling in the front row tremble all over.
"Seeing you like this, I really have some doubts about His Majesty Long Anguo's widely rumored saying of loving the people like a son. Humph! He himself runs very fast." Xiao Muting said with a mocking tone.
None of the officials in Yanzhen who were kneeling on the ground dared to accept this statement, but the complaints in their hearts were true.
Xiao Muting said coldly: "I thought he would leave an empty city for me, but I didn't expect that it would actually be a city full of people. It's really eye-opening to bring you loyal officials."
At this time Zhong Liang rode forward, whispered a few words in his ear, and then stepped back.
Xiao Muting's eyes swept around the people kneeling on the ground, and finally focused on the man wearing the prefect's official uniform. He pointed at him with the riding crop in his hand: "Are you Liu Maodian, the prefect of Yanzhen?"
"Exactly, exactly!" the prefect replied with a firm voice.
"Okay, I have heard of you. You are a good official. You have been an official for thirty years. It is not easy to be promoted from a seventh-grade county magistrate to the prefect of Yanzhen Town. I have always respected the most honest officials who can serve the people.
There are really not many officials who do practical things, especially in your country of Long'an, but we all have our own masters. Now that you have become my king's prisoners, you'd better not cause trouble to me. Maybe in the future, we
We can meet again." Xiao Muting said calmly.
All the officials looked at each other and did not dare to speak.
"Come here, take good care of these adults. Don't neglect them. The Xuanjia Army will take over this city!" Xiao Muting said loudly.
"Yes!" The resounding response shocked the hearts of these people, and a few of them with poor psychological quality were frightened and fainted.
At this moment, Liu Maodian suddenly stood up and said with an awe-inspiring expression: "Your Highness, King Chen, when the two countries go to war, the innocent people will suffer the most. Now that the city has been destroyed, I only ask for mercy from King Chen.
You can die, but please spare this city full of people, Your Highness."
Xiao Muting sat on the horse, looked at him sideways with a gloomy expression, and asked coldly: "Master Liu, do you think that this king is an executioner who kills innocent people indiscriminately and massacres the city?"
"Uh...this..." Liu Maodian pursed his lips slightly. Although he did not explain, it also showed that this was what he thought.
"I have always only defended my territory and never invaded other countries. I have never been merciful to the enemies who invaded our borders. However, I am not a bastard of low moral character. I have never massacred people.
, the reason why this king pursues across the border this time is also the fault of your country's monarch. He started a war with our country for no reason, and the fight was unclear. I just wanted to ask him about the name of this battle, but he didn't.
I ran away myself, I have never fought such a stupid battle before!" Xiao Muting said calmly.
Liu Maodian frowned again and lowered his head slightly to think. Ever since the three armies passed through the town, and then when he saw the Holy Emperor coming to Xixia Pass in person, he had a bad premonition. He found that he returned defeated, but with them
The officials in these towns passing through did not mention a word about the pursuit of soldiers. Isn't this just leaving them to die!
Although the reputation of the Holy Qin King Chen in front of him has always been very good, he still emphasized: "I hope His Highness, King Chen, can keep his word! The people of Yanzhen are innocent."
"Hmph! Since Mr. Liu doesn't believe in me so much, then you should open your eyes and take a good look at how I do things. But if it's someone who deliberately sabotages, that's a different story!" Xiao Muting sneered again.
Finally, the horse drove past him.
Su Han stood on the wall of the North City Gate, looking at the dark road ahead, but her heart was bright and calm.
She said to Xiao Muting beside her: "In terms of time, they have been out of the city for almost three hours. According to the map, they should be almost at the next city at this time, and this is a big city with a defensive force.
Thirty thousand people, what do you think he would do?"
Xiao Muting shook his head: "Thirteen thousand people, if we really fight, they can resist us for up to an hour, and this is without the use of artillery."
"An hour is not long, but it is enough for him to run three miles." Su Han said with a sigh.
"Sanli...yes..." Xiao Muting frowned and looked sideways at her.
Su Han immediately raised his head and looked up at him: "You haven't forgotten again, haven't I taught you that one mile is one hundred and fifty feet, and three miles is..."
"Four hundred and fifty feet!" Xiao Muting immediately replied.
"Yes! Doesn't this count?" Su Han blinked at him.
"I just... didn't react." Xiao Muting pursed his lips and said.
"If you are not used to it, just convert it according to the one you are familiar with. I just want to keep it confidential. These measurement words can be understood by everyone. If we have our own secret words, then for the transmission of passwords
It's also a kind of guarantee. Even if the news is hijacked and they want to understand it, it's probably unlikely unless there's a mole." Su Han stared at his cute big eyes, with a hint of warning in his bright eyes.
meaning.
Xiao Muting pursed her lips and smiled: "No, this is good, you will get used to it gradually!"
"I knew my husband-in-law would definitely stick with me! Thank you!" Su Han immediately shook his head proudly.
