Half an hour later, these two people opened the door and walked out of the house. At this time, all Xiao Yanchun's subordinates in the courtyard fell to the ground. After seeing this, these two people laughed with satisfaction.
As soon as midnight passed, torches flickered on the official road outside Lingxiu City, which made all the people guarding the city wall smile.
On the hillside three miles away from Lingxiu City, Xiao Yanyuan and Xiao Yanhao were still imagining the scene of everyone's admiration for them after they captured the city. Suddenly, they saw the city wall that was brightly lit just now.
Above, everything was suddenly extinguished, and darkness fell. Even the few lanterns on the city were extinguished.
This shocked them all, and they couldn't help but think of a rumor.
Xiao Muting's army is actually an army of ghosts that cannot be killed!
Looking at the Lingxiu City at this time, it looked more like a "dead city", with no breath of living people at all. Few people swallowed without nervousness and fear, and even some people had already retreated.
Although Xiao Yanyuan and Xiao Yanhao boasted loudly, they had never led troops a few times, let alone fought a few battles, let alone won a battle. Seeing the situation at this time, these two
People also have the intention to quit.
But when I think back to the Hanye City behind me, my father and Xiao Yanchun were stunned by the two of them. If they wake up and find that they retreat without a fight, they will be looked down upon even more, let alone in the future.
If you think about it, you have to kill them immediately.
Xiao Yanyuan touched his heart to his waist. He did not touch the sword, but instead held the brocade bag hanging on his waist. He couldn't help but think of what was mentioned on the note in the brocade bag:
"If you fight hard, the young master will become a war king; if you try hard, the war king will become an emperor!"
The expression on his face became firm in an instant. He pursed his lips and gritted his teeth. He drew his sword and pointed it straight in the direction of Lingxiu City. He shouted: "Everyone, listen to the order and charge!"
Everyone who heard this order was stunned and looked at him with wide eyes.
After he yelled, no one rushed out. He was extremely embarrassed, but he still shouted louder: "If you capture the city gate, you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, and you will be promoted to the third level. If you capture the general who defends the city alive, you will be rewarded with a hundred gold coins."
Two, one hundred hectares of fields, one hundred beauties!"
There must be a brave man under the heavy reward. Sure enough, the cry of "kill"! rang out, and it got louder and louder. Looking at the enemy troops holding torches and waving swords, rushing towards the dark Lingxiu City,
The Xuanjia soldiers who were lying on the crevices of the city wall and watching were all happy.
Yunlan looked back from the city wall at this time, turned around and sat down and looked at Su Han: "Captain, they are coming soon."
Su Han nodded: "Just use your tactics, close the door and beat the dog!"
"Really! Thank you, captain!" Yunlan almost jumped up with joy. If Jiang Bin hadn't held her down, this girl would have been really capable.
Su Han just smiled slightly and looked at Yun Shi beside him: "While you are beating the dogs behind closed doors, you are responsible for sending a signal to Qingluan so that they can cut off the escape route of these people. If you can capture those two alive,
A fool will be rewarded heavily."
"Capture him alive?" Yun Shi was stunned for a moment, and then she wrinkled her face and said, "Why do you want to capture him alive? If you just chop him down, it will be over. If you really hand him back, you will really have a grudge."
"If you cut him off, you won't be enmity?" Yunlan stretched out her head and looked at her and asked.
"That's different. What we killed were the invading enemy troops, and what we handed back were living people. Who knows what their two mouths could say. Besides, King Li is already eyeing our county.
, what if we really attack the city while we are gone?" Yun Shi analyzed seriously.
"Then by chopping down these two straw bags, King Li will stop attacking the city? You have to attack when you have to, and this is the revenge of killing your son." Yunlan also retorted clearly.
"Shock you, do you understand? Let him understand that we are not easy to mess with. It's not that we didn't give him a chance. We have informed him in advance. It's because he has no ability to stop these two stupid sons from coming to die. We can still
Returning the body is already a mercy. If he acts irrationally again, the consequences will be immeasurable. Shouldn't he think about it?" Yun Shi said calmly.
Yun Lan wrinkled her face and pursed her mouth and thought for a long time, then suddenly turned to look at Su Han: "Captain, is Sister Shi right?"
"It makes sense, and what you said makes sense, but I still prefer Xiaoshi's approach. Why should I give it to someone who doesn't even care about it? Will they cherish it?" Su Han smiled at her.
"Probably not, they don't seem to know what this face is!" Yun Lan answered honestly, shaking her head.
Su Han reached out and touched her little face lightly and said with a smile, "Yes! So, no need to!"
"That slave understands." Yunlan's little face brightened.
While they were talking, the enemy troops outside the city had already rushed to the city. But when they saw the wide open city gate, they all stopped. For a moment, they didn't know what was going on. This was to invite them into the city.
?
But in this dark night, the open city gate is more like a monster with a big mouth, waiting for these people to take the initiative to take it into the mouth and let it have a full meal. Thinking about the "ghost city" just mentioned, I feel like it.
I started to feel frightened, not knowing whether to advance or retreat.
Just when these people were hesitating, someone called from behind: "For the silver and the beauty! Brothers! Go for it!"
Suddenly, blood surged into their hearts. These people raised their swords, shouted loud slogans, and rushed into the city.
At this time, Xiao Yanyuan and Xiao Yanhao, who were standing a thousand meters away, also looked at each other proudly and laughed.
"Brother, I have told you a long time ago that Xiao Muting is bluffing. They say he is brave, but he only relied on the three powerful armies. In order to escape from the capital, he destroyed all three powerful armies.
He surrendered in exchange for a chance to live. No matter how good he was, how could he have such a strong team in less than a year? My father just trusted him too much and was deceived by him.
I don’t even know. If I had known this, I should have listened to our brother’s words and taken action when he first came to Cangque County, and we would not have been exposed to the crisis of his salt control later. Look, isn’t this something that can be easily captured?
Really!" Xiao Yanhao mocked proudly.
"Who says it's not the case? My father didn't listen to our brother's heartfelt words at all, but blindly listened to Xiao Yanchun's words. Now he has regrets. If he had listened to us earlier and joined forces with Uncle Wang of Cheng'an County to launch an attack, this Cangque County
All the rich lands belong to us. When the time comes, we will kidnap Prince Chengan and return him to the capital, deceive the Holy Emperor into trusting him, and attack him when he is relaxed. The father of the throne will have already sat on it.
Or is it possible that I just sit in this place where nothing matters, living in fear all day long, watching other people's faces." Xiao Yanyuan snorted coldly.
His hatred for Xiao Yanchun became even stronger. In his understanding, the reason why he had been unsuccessful was because of him. It was him who was always pressuring him to rise to the top and stand out.
Xiao Yanhao understood his thoughts very well and said flatteringly: "When it comes to Xiao Yanchun, I don't know what is good about him. Is he really wise and brave? I don't think so, but he was praised by the emperor's grandfather when he was a child.
, the father regards him as a treasure, and only thinks of him in all good things. Marrying a main concubine and two side concubines is not enough. He also accepts all the concubines he takes, but as for us, we just accept them.
A flower girl gets scolded like crazy, but what is that woman he brought back from Cangque County? Isn't she also a flower girl, just because she is an courtesan?"
Xiao Yanyuan became angry when he mentioned this matter. When he saw Hanzhi, she had not yet been taken into the house as a concubine by Xiao Yanchun. He showed her kindness in many ways, but was ridiculed by Xiao Yanchun. In the end, he was able to hold her
The beauty returned, and he became angry just thinking about it. He said angrily: "Let's see how long he can be proud of himself. As long as we take down this Lingxiu City and then attack Baifeng City in pursuit of victory, he will be considered an abandoner by his father."
Son, let’s see how proud he is.”
"Brother is right! Look, our soldiers are so brave. They have already entered the city. We will capture the city soon. I think my father will be proud of us." Xiao Yanhao seemed to be thinking about him.
, but the calculation in his eyes became more and more obvious.
These two people were so proud that they didn't even see a light flashing on the opposite city wall. It was also because it was too dark there, so this little bit of light seemed so dazzling.
At this moment, a scream came from behind. When the two turned around, a cold light flashed in front of their eyes. There was a pair of sharp eyes in front of them, and there was also a cold blade of a dagger under their necks.
"Are you done thinking about it?" A clear voice sounded.
