From eunuch to emperor

Seeing that Gongsun Linglong knew the importance of the matter, the empress said happily, "Okay, get ready and set off immediately."

Since Long Chen sent the letter, it means that the time is coming, and the empress can't delay.

Gongsun Linglong paid homage: "This humble minister leads the decree."

Yingfeng and Gongsun Linglong left Huaqing Pool immediately.

Yingfeng summoned the shadow guards, and Gongsun Linglong returned to the mountain to order the assembly, and drove the Thunderfire Army to Jade Buddha Pass in batches.

...

Outside Yangcheng.

It has been two days since the city was besieged, and Long Chen is meditating in the tent.

The siege of the city is actually very boring. It is enough to set up antler barriers at the gates on three sides to prevent the soldiers in the city from rushing out suddenly.

At other times, let the soldiers recharge their batteries.

A normal siege would involve repeated sieges, but Long Chen didn't do anything, just surround the city, that's all.

Therefore, Long Chen practices kung fu when he has nothing to do, and soldiers practice and rest when they have nothing to do.

Shi Le would patrol the city defense three times a day in the morning, noon and evening, and each time he would take a telescope to look in Long Chen's direction.

Tang Heizi came in from outside the tent and said happily, "My lord, wait for the rider to report that there is a group of grain trucks coming from the west."

Long Chen opened his eyes and asked strangely: "Grain truck? Grain truck?"

Tang Heizi nodded and said, "Yes, they are grain trucks. Waiting riders say there are more than 100 trucks."

Long Chen got up and asked: "The news is true?"

Tang Heizi nodded and said, "It's true."

Long Chen felt more and more strange, and said: "No, we have besieged Yangcheng for two days, they should know, how could they still deliver food?"

"Could it be... a bait?"

Xixia must have known about the siege of Yangcheng.

Maybe Li Chengdao even knew about it.

Knowing that Yangcheng is under siege, there is still a convoy transporting food?

No matter how you listen to it, it doesn't make sense.

Tang Heizi said: "Never mind him, as long as the food on the carriage is real, we'll grab it back."

Food is the most important thing in war.

When Tang Heizi heard that there was a grain truck, his eyes turned green.

Long Chen felt strange, and said, "Call... Dugu Jiali over."

Tang Heizi immediately went to find Dugu Jiali.

Soon, Dugu Jiali rode over.

"grown ups."

Dugu Jiali came in wearing armor.

"Tang Heizi said that Houqi found a group of Xixia grain trucks, you go with him and take 5000 people there."

"If it's really a grain truck, rob the grain."

"If it's a bait, don't love to fight, retreat immediately."

Long Chen felt that it was unreasonable for the grain trucks to appear, but it would be a pity not to grab the grain trucks.

Dugu Jiali said: "The last general takes orders."

Dugu Jiali and Tang Heizi immediately ordered five thousand cavalry, waiting to lead the way, and galloped west.

Long Chen didn't go to intercept it himself, he was worried that it was to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

Once Long Chen left, Shi Le took the opportunity to break through, and even took advantage of the situation to counterattack.

So Long Chen didn't go, and only sent Dugu Jiali.

Dugu Jiali has the cultivation base of Emperor Wu, which is enough to deal with Xixia's people.

It's better to have more masters under your command, and just order any one to be a general.

Dugu Jiali hurried west with the cavalry, and soon saw the convoy transporting grain.

There are more than 100 vehicles, and the burlap bags on the vehicles are filled with bulging things.

"Is that stuff food?"

Tang Heizi suspected that the things on the carriage were not food.

Dugu Jiali said, "It's simple."

Picking up the painting and carving bow and following for hundreds of meters, Dugu Jiali was on horseback, shooting an arrow towards the sky.

The feathered arrow rushed into the sky, shot a parabola, and just hit the sack of a carriage.

Feathered arrows shot into the bag, and the wheat in the bag flowed out.

Dugu Jiali took out the binoculars and saw the wheat flowing out of the bag. The soldiers escorting the food panicked and picked up their weapons to be on guard.

"That's right, it's food."

Dugu Jiali said happily.

Tang Heizi was overjoyed and said, "So much food is enough for us to eat for a few days."

Dugu Jiali was also very happy, and said: "You can also save us some food, let's go, grab it!"

Dugu Jiali took the lead and rushed over with more than 5000 cavalry.

Before Dugu Jiali rushed to the grain transport team, she saw a motley army rushing out from the roadside, surrounding the grain transport team and massacring.

Dugu Jiali stopped, and Tang Heizi ordered to stop the charge.

"What's the matter? Who are they?"

Tang Heizi looked around, and saw that the armor and weapons of this army were in a mess, but the banner was exquisite, made of silk, with a big "Zhu" embroidered on it.

"This is... Xixia's rebels? No, it's Xixia's rebels."

Dugu Jiali had heard that because of the Qiuzitang incident, many people in Xixia territory rebelled. They formed a rebel army and attacked the Xixia court everywhere.

Many of them were policemen and soldiers from Xixia, and their wives were raped and humiliated by the monks of Zhaoti Temple, and they also rebelled.

Soon, the rebels took control of the food convoy, and all the soldiers who transported the food were killed.

Seeing this, Tang Heizi asked, "General Dugu, like this... shall we fight or not?"

Dugu Jiali sneered and said, "How can they snatch the food we are looking for?"

Tang Heizi felt that it made sense. He dispatched [-] soldiers and horses, but he couldn't return empty-handed.

"kill!"

Tang Heizi charged forward with his horse.

The rebel army who was robbing food suddenly saw more than 5000 elite cavalry attacking, and was frightened to resist in a hurry.

The leader is a man holding a big knife and riding a maroon horse.

Seeing the killed cavalry holding the military flag with the word "Dragon", he immediately stepped forward and shouted: "Are you the Dragon Army!"

Tang Heizi rushed up and shouted: "The Long family army is here!"

Hearing the name of the Long Family Army, the man immediately shouted: "Everyone put down your weapons, this is the Long Family Army!"

Everyone discarded their weapons and raised their hands to welcome the Long family army.

Tang Heizi rushed forward with soldiers and horses, just thinking about killing for a while to make the rebels give up resistance.

Unexpectedly, the rebels surrendered before they even made a move.

Dugu Jiali stopped, looked at the man coldly, and asked, "Who are you?"

The man immediately got off his horse and bowed, "Zhu Yong, the owner of the small Zhujiazhuang, all the female family members in the Zhuangzi were ruined by the obscene monks from Zhaoti Temple."

"I...I killed those sluts, and I killed those bastards, and now I am leading troops to attack the city and plunder the land, and I swear that I will kill all the bald donkeys in Zhaoti Temple, and kill Shi Le, the stunned king."

This man is Zhu Yong, the owner of Zhujiazhuang.

After catching ghosts for Zhu Yong, Long Chen told Zhu Yong the truth.

Of course Zhu Yong didn't believe it, he just regarded Long Chen as a nonsense monster.

But later, news about the Qiuzi Hall in Zhaoti Temple spread to Zhujiazhuang, and Zhu Yong secretly imprisoned Mrs. Mu and other concubines for interrogation.

Under torture, all wives and concubines confessed.

Especially Mrs. Mu, she is Zhu Yong's first wife, but every year she has to go to the Zhaoti Temple to ask for a child to have sex with the monks.

Zhu Yong's possessiveness is extremely strong, and of course he cannot accept such a thing.

The more Zhu Yong thought about it, the more angry he became, and finally held a family banquet, put medicine in the food, and poisoned all the wild seed girls.

After that, he killed his wife and concubine, and set Zhujiazhuang on fire.

Then, Zhu Yong dispersed his money, tangled with desperadoes and men who were also greened, and formed this rebel army of more than 4 people.

They discovered the grain convoy and immediately led troops to attack.

It happened that Dugu Jiali came here.
