The heavens are happy

Chapter 283 Chaos
Li Qi, who was holding the secret letter, also had a murderous look on his face!
Perhaps Zhang Shixin's letter gave him great confidence!
Li Qi picked up the helmet that was lying crookedly on the side, hugged it in his waist, and carried a long sword.

Then he said: "Let's go! Go to the city gate with me. If Zhang Ni dares to come to Taizhou City tonight, he will die with a bloody head!"

When Li Qi showed up at the gate of Taizhou City with his people, several drowsy guards on the tower quickly reminded each other.

He straightened his helmet, stood up straight and saluted Li Qi respectfully!

Li Qi snorted coldly, stood on the city gate and looked around.

Then he asked, "Where is Liu Chong? Has he not returned yet?"

A general came out and said: "My lord, General Liu Chong has been out of the city for an hour!"

Li Qi nodded and said: "Send an order to close the city gate. If Liu Chong comes back, put down the spider plant and pick him up!"

"This this?"

The general was a little puzzled, obviously he didn't expect Li Qi to give such an order.

Li Qi snorted coldly and looked at him coldly, then said: "What? You have objections!"

"My subordinates dare not!"

"Announce to the whole city! There is a curfew tonight, no one is allowed to walk in the streets at will, and civilian husbands and daughters are recruited to make city defense equipment and military rations overnight. As long as you guard tonight, you will have no worries in the southeast from now on!"

A confident smile appeared on Li Qi's face, as long as Zhang Shicheng's good head was taken by him.

At that time, he, the prefect of Taizhou, will not only have no faults but will have merits.

In that way, not only is the promotion of the imperial court no longer a dream, but Zhang Shicheng has accumulated wealth for so long, and it will all fall into his own hands by then!
At the same time, in the dense forest, Zhang Shide stumbled and saw fewer and fewer people around him.

The anxiety and panic in my heart could no longer be suppressed.

"Has General Liu Chong arrived yet?"

At this moment, a distant voice shouted: "Is it Zhang Shide and Fourth Master Zhang? Liu Chong is here!"

Zhang Shide was overjoyed, and quickly shouted: "It's me, it's me, General Liu Chong, I'm Zhang Shide!"

At this moment, a voice shouted from a distance: "Quick, quick! I found Zhang Shide, don't let him go!"

"Release the arrow! Release the arrow!"

"Whoosh whoosh!"

A few feathered arrows came, and several people around Zhang Shide fell down one after another!

"Whoosh" a feathered arrow hit Zhang Shide's abdomen.

"Ouch!" With a scream, Zhang Shide hugged his stomach, and quickly fell down in the grass, desperately crawling forward.

At this time, Liu Chong, who arrived with his men, quickly jumped off his horse and helped Zhang Shide up.

Then sent an order: "Quick! Leave a team to stop the enemy, others, so I will escort General Zhang back to Taizhou City!"

"General Zhang, you must hold on, and find the best doctor for you in Taizhou City!"

Taizhou City!
"who?"

The soldiers guarding the city upstairs saw some people coming from a distance, and shouted!
Liu Chong, who was on horseback, took out a token, and a soldier next to him held a torch to illuminate his face.

So that the defenders upstairs can see: "I am Liu Chong! Open the door quickly, I have something important to report to Lord Li Qi!"

"General Liu! Master Li ordered that the city gates not be opened tonight, and the villain will put down the hanging basket to pick you up!"

Seeing this scene, Liu Chong was speechless for a while!
But he also knew that since it was Li Qi's order, he had no choice but to obey it!
At that moment Liu Chong hugged Zhang Shide and climbed in the hanging basket, and once he climbed the tower, he shouted: "Take me to see Master Li!"

"Liu Chong? Why are you in such a mess?"

Li Qi was shocked when he saw Liu Chong. At this moment, Liu Chong's body was covered with blood, and he looked in a panic.

"See my lord, the last general is lucky to live up to his fate, this is Zhang Shide!"

"As for the blood is all from Zhang Shide's body, there will be no injuries in the end!"

"What? Zhang Shide? What happened to him?"

Li Qi was shocked!
Liu Chong hurriedly supported Zhang Shide. At this time, Zhang Shide was so crooked that he couldn't get up. He could only sit on the ground and couldn't move!
Liu Chong said hastily: "On the way back, Zhang Shicheng's men attacked. Unfortunately, General Zhang Shide was shot by an arrow. He is in danger now!"

"What! Zhang Shicheng actually killed his own brother?"

Li Qi didn't expect that Zhang Shicheng would do such a cruel thing to his own brother!
At this time, Zhang Shide coughed weakly on the ground.

Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, he said, "Brother? I'm afraid he hates us brothers the most? Shi Xin, it seems that I have to go first, Shi Yi, I'm here to find you!"

"Pity"

Li Qi could tell after looking at it that Zhang Shide was exhausted now.

His face was pale and his lips were purple, obviously a sign of poisoning.

Li Qi asked curiously: "What's going on here, why are you still poisoned?"

Liu Chong quickly replied: "On the way back, I wanted to find a doctor in Taizhou City to treat him, but I didn't expect Zhang Shicheng to be serious! The arrows he shot were actually very poisonous!"

At this moment, Zhang Shide took a breath of self-reliance, and then said: "Master Li, we have had a lot of contacts in the past, but now I am a mortal person, please take care of my second brother Shixin, he is devoted to the court, I am afraid The elder brother harmed him! My lord, you don’t have to doubt whether my brother is sincere in voting, seeing my miserable state today, you should understand that Zhang Shicheng is insane!”

"Also. Zhang Shicheng has secretly handed over all the wealth collected in his hands to Zhang Wen! Use this wealth in exchange for the rest of my second brother's life"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Shide was exhausted but not inhaled!
"General Zhang! General Zhang!"

Liu Chong shook Zhang Shide's body at the side, but he closed his eyes, sank weakly with his hands, and finally died!
Li Qi's face was gloomy, and he snorted coldly: "Zhang Shicheng really has no conscience, by the way, how much do you know about this Zhang Wen?"

Liu Chong hurriedly bowed and replied: "My lord, Zhang Wen is the murderer who shot Master Zhao to death with an arrow under the city wall that day. Zhang Shicheng trusts him so much. I think he must be very good!"

"It's actually him?"

Li Qi was startled!
But when he thought of Zhang Shicheng's huge wealth accumulated over the years, his heart thumped wildly!
Hastily said: "General Liu! I now appoint you as Taizhou General! Take full responsibility for the defense of Taizhou! Be sure to give me Zhang Shicheng!"

"Also! Zhang Shixin has sent a secret letter, and he will cooperate with us as expected. This time Zhang Shicheng must have nowhere to escape!"

"Remember, you must keep an eye on this Zhang Wen, and don't let him fall into the hands of others, do you understand?"

Excited, Liu Chong quickly knelt down and kowtowed in thanks, "Thank you for your promotion, I will definitely bring Zhang Wen in front of you in person in the end! Leave it to your lord!"

"well"

Li Qi clapped his palms with excitement.

Then he looked at Liu Chong and said kindly: "I have a adopted daughter who is not yet married on February [-]th. She is a perfect match with you. After this battle, how about you bring some gifts and walk around the official residence?"

Li Qi showed a kind smile on his face, while Liu Chong showed an expression of excitement!

Both faces were flushed, and said: "Thank you for your appreciation, sir, don't worry, Taizhou City is as solid as gold tonight!"

"By the way, my lord, Zhang Shicheng's subordinate called Zhang Wen is very good at shooting! Mr. Zhao died at his hands, why don't you sit in the magistrate's yamen, so that you can calm people's hearts in the rear, and you will lead people to stand firm on the city wall. What do you think?"

Li Qi was overjoyed. For him, he didn't want to risk his life to go to the city wall.

Especially Zhao Lian's death, until now still makes him linger in fear!

Now that Liu Chong said this, he was naturally happy!
He patted Liu Chong on the shoulder and said, "Okay! Okay! A friend in need is a friend, General Liu, I will entrust you with the safety of Taizhou City!"

"My lord, don't worry, yes, my lord! If Zhang Shicheng is defeated, the gang of desperadoes under him will gather together. Without his suppression, they will probably disperse in a hurry, and then they will flee everywhere and become a disaster again!"

"What's more, these people are also soldiers of hundreds of battles. Why don't your lord contact Zhang Shixin as soon as possible and allow him to be promoted to a noble. At that time, let him continue to restrain himself until these arrogant soldiers will be used by your lord?"

"That's right, that's right!"

Li Qi's face was full of joy, the more he looked at Liu Chong, the more pleasing to his eyes!
In addition to being proficient in martial arts, he also has a clear view of political affairs!
Liu Chong struck while the iron was hot and said quickly: "My lord, why don't you write a letter to the imperial court? On the one hand, it is to ask the imperial court to support it, and on the other hand, it is also to make this matter earlier. After all, Zhang Shicheng's men and horses, as well as his Wealth, but there are many people who are jealous, what if when the time comes, my lord, you worked so hard to kill Zhang thief, and someone jumps out to pick peaches?"

Li Qi was startled when he heard this!
That's right!
Why didn't I think of this myself?
Yes, fortunately Liu Chong reminded him!

Li Qi hurriedly said: "That's right, I'm going to write a letter to the imperial court now! Liu Chong, Taizhou City is entrusted to you!"

Liu Chong quickly knelt down!

"Please don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will be pissed off for my lord! Taizhou City is here, so my subordinates are here!"
