Blossoms Bloom Three Worlds Falling Silently

"How's Master Han's accomplishments?" Yu Yan whispered to Master Li beside him as he walked.

"Master Han has been guarding Longcheng for more than ten years. Every half a month, he leads the troops to repel the attack. Even if the enemy is several times stronger, he has never let them enter the city gate." It is not hard to hear the admiration in Li Da's mouth. In other words, Yu Yan was even more fond of Han Xun.

"Since the meritorious service is outstanding, why can't I be promoted as a captain of Longcheng for more than ten years?" Logically speaking, there is no reason for such a person not to be entrusted with important tasks, and Yu Yan became more and more curious about Han Xie.

Master Li at the side became so indignant when he heard Yu Yan's question.

"What's so strange about this? He's not the only one who hasn't been promoted for more than ten years." The implication is that he has never been promoted for more than ten years.

It doesn't matter that Han Xu didn't get promoted, he was even demoted.

Can your achievements compare with Han Xiong's?Yuyan slandered silently.

Han Xun has repeatedly made military exploits, unlike you who do not make meritorious deeds and make mistakes.

In fact, Yuyan wronged Mr. Li for thinking like this. Although Mr. Li has no particularly remarkable achievements, Longcheng has gradually become prosperous under his governance.

I think when he took office, it was still a backwater.

They were not far away, and after a while, Yuyan came to Han Xiong's side.

"Master Han, you've worked hard!" Yu Yan smiled softly and offered to show his kindness.

Chonghua said to let him leave it alone, if Longcheng can be defended, then the person who guards the city must not be himself. When he saw Han Xiong today, Yuyan already had a conclusion in his mind.

"Thank you, sir, for your concern." Han Xun respectfully raised his fist at Yu Yan and saluted.

Yiyan is the prefect, and the prefect is above him.

Judging from Han Xio's modest attitude, he doesn't seem like someone who is easy to offend the superior, but why has his official career not been smooth for so many years?Han Xie, who was looking up and down, was full of doubts.

No matter how you look at it, Han Xio has the demeanor of a great general, and the more you look at it, the more fortunate you are.

Fortunately, his official career is not going well, otherwise, if he is not here, this Longcheng will definitely be unable to hold.

"I don't know what is the best way to defend the city?" Shu Ya asked him bluntly without reservation.

"Long City's walls are low, if you want to stop an army of [-] and a half months outside the city, I'm afraid..." Han Xie's tone remained the same, but Yu Yan was taken aback.

"One hundred thousand? Didn't you say it was tens of thousands?" Yu Yan looked at Master Li at the side with a stern tone.

Master Li hurriedly bowed down to apologize, "My lord, I don't know the exact number of Ban Yue's army!" He didn't know, but Han Xie knew, it must have been calculated, if the sentinel reported it, he would definitely not have missed the eunuch's mansion.

"I just want to defend Longcheng, not to destroy one hundred thousand enemy troops." Yuyan said to Han Xiong, looking at the densely packed Banyue army that was already faintly visible in the distance outside the city.

Han Xun frowned and remained silent, Master Li was wiping the sweat in his heart.

You really dare to say that if you don't mention destroying the enemy's [-] troops, just defending the city, even someone who has never fought in a battle, seeing the disparity in strength, should know that it is impossible.

"The next official will swear to defend the city to the death." Han Xie clasped his fists at Yuyan, and then went to the side to overhaul the fortifications.

Yuyan smiled and looked at the Banyue army in the distance.

Master Li didn't even dare to take a look at the densely packed army, he had never seen such a battle when he was so old.

"My lord, you are so confident, did you already have a countermeasure?" Seeing that Yuyan was not worried at all, Master Li asked curiously.

"No."

"No?" Without your self-confidence, Master Li started to spin around anxiously again.

The enemy army is getting closer and closer, and the two thousand defenders of Longcheng can't defend it until it gets dark.

"My lord, there are only 2000 soldiers in this city, and these [-] are all the soldiers under your command. The nearest army is three days away from here, and there are only [-]." Master Li felt that it was necessary to explain the situation to Yuyan. of danger.

"Are you afraid of death?" Yu Yan ignored Mr. Li's question and asked him instead.

"The lower officials are afraid, but the lower officials are willing to block the enemy army and the city gate with a meager body." Master Li puffed out his chest and answered Yuyan's question firmly.

"These two thousand soldiers are also willing."

"But" Mr. Li was about to say something, but Yu Yan had already walked forward, walked down the city wall and walked towards the city.

Master Li looked at the mighty Banyue army approaching, and then at the Yunluan soldiers on the city wall.

He was not the only one who was afraid. Although some soldiers stood upright, they still couldn't hide their trembling legs.

"Han Xie, tell me the truth, how long can Longcheng be defended!" Master Li strode up to Han Xie, who was leaning over to check the crossbow.

Seeing Lord Li's impatient and panicked look, Han Xun continued to wipe the crossbow and said to Master Li, "Wait until the reinforcements come." His tone was firm, and Master Li felt inexplicably relieved.

"No matter what, we must not fall into the hands of Ban Yue." Tears welled up in Master Li's eyes, and his words were sincere.

Han Xie returned Master Li's affirmative look, "Well, Zhong Yan, don't worry." Master Li couldn't help tears falling down, and after he turned around and wiped them off, he said hoarsely to Han Xio: "I'll go talk to you." My father is going to say hello."

"En." Looking at Li Zhongyan's back, Han Xie's eyes were firm. Even if it wasn't for Yunluan or the people of Longcheng, it was for you. I will definitely defend Longcheng.

"The enemy is approaching, check the bows and crossbows." Han Xun yelled at the soldiers on the wall like a rainbow.

"Yes." Four or five hundred soldiers replied loudly at the same time, the voice was like thunder.

Only they themselves knew that they screamed with all their strength, just to cover up the fear in their hearts.

Ziyan got down from the city wall and went straight back to the prefect's mansion. In the face of the great enemy, it was up to him, the prefect, to stabilize the people's hearts.

After hanging up the false title for so long, it's time to do something for Longcheng.

As soon as he approached the prefect's mansion, Yi Yan saw densely packed people in front of the prefect's mansion.

Squeezing in from the crowd, Yuyan stood in front of the mansion gate.

Since he didn't do anything after taking office, none of the people in Longcheng knew that he was the prefect.

The soldiers guarding the gate walked up to Yuyan and respectfully said to him, "My lord, they are all here to see the prefect."

"Understood." Yu Yan waved his hand to signal the soldiers to retreat.

Hearing that the soldiers called Yuyan your lord, the people surrounding him hurriedly asked, "I don't know what kind of official position this lord is?" Yuyan took a step forward, stood standing in front of the people and said loudly, "I am the new prefect of Longcheng. If I know what you are here for, I will tell you one by one."

"He's the prefect, where is Mr. Li? Why didn't I know that Longcheng had been replaced as prefect." Before he said yes, discussions among the common people had already started.

"I took over the position of prefect a few years ago, but I rarely sit in the mansion. It's only natural that you don't know me." After a short break, Yuyan continued: "Today, half a month suddenly sent troops to attack my Longcheng. One hundred thousand people. I know what you are worried about. There are only [-] defenders in Longcheng, and you are afraid that Longcheng will not be able to defend it." The people were first silenced by Ban Yue's troops, and then they were shocked by the powerful momentum of Yuyan. Silent.

Yuyan tried his best to yell out his words with a roar.

"If you are afraid, you can leave from the south gate. If you don't leave, our Longcheng defenders will do our best to protect you." After hearing what Yuyan said, most of the people in front of Yuyan lowered their heads and thought. with.

The reason why Yiyan didn't keep them was because he was afraid that if Han Xun couldn't defend the city and Ban Yue's soldiers massacred the people in the city, it would be his fault.

Nothing is so absolute, he believes in Chonghua, he believes in Han Xun, but he dare not bet on this game.

The people in front of them gradually dispersed, and Yuyan knew that most of them went home to pack up their things and flee for their lives, and even if a few stayed, they would live in fear.

"Zhiyan!" Yuyan was about to turn around and go back to the prefect's mansion, but was stopped by Su Tingzhou.

Yiyan had seen Su Tingzhou in the crowd a long time ago, but at that moment, he chose to ignore him.

Yuyan turned his head slowly, only Su Tingzhou and Fan Lin were standing in front of the door.

"Ting Zhou" Yu Yan squeezed out a smile.

"I will stay in Longcheng and guard the Su family's property." Su Tingzhou said to Yuyan softly, with firm eyes.

Yiyan thought he would ask himself why he was the prefect of Longcheng, but he didn't ask, Su Tingzhou was indeed a smart man.

"I will also stay in Longcheng to help you guard your family business." This smile came from the heart of Yiyan.

In Su Tingzhou's eyes, this smile is as warm and warm as poplar flowers in March.

"Okay." Su Tingzhou nodded and left with a smile, and Fan Lin glanced at Yuyan with a meaningful smile and followed him.

In a house not far from the prefect's mansion, Li Zhongyan knelt in front of a white-haired old man.

"Father, now that the enemy is at hand, my son will live and die with Longcheng."

After Li Zhongyan finished speaking, his expression darkened and he continued: "This time, the only thing my son will be sorry for is your father. If I die, I hope my father will forgive me for not being filial." Before he finished speaking, Li Zhongyan had already Tears filled my eyes.

Father Li's eyes were also red, and he stood up tremblingly while leaning on his crutches.

"Zhong Yan, father understands your loyalty to the king. You must die to serve the country. Father will not stop you. Father will be proud of you." After saying a word, father Li's tears also fell.

After a pause, he went on to say: "If, if you and him can come back safely this time, I will agree to your business." Father Li raised his head and faced the roof after speaking, tears dripping from the corners of his eyes to the ground.

Hearing what his father said, Li Zhongyan kowtowed on the ground, "Thank you father for making it happen" His voice was choked and indistinct.

After waiting for more than ten years, I finally waited until my father nodded.

For so many years, because of his father's strong opposition, he and Han Xun have buried their feelings deeply in their hearts. They thought that the old father would never agree to the two being together until his death. Unexpectedly, ten years later, he finally got his approval.

At that time, he and Han Xie fell in love vigorously, and pushed back the marriage chosen by the family. Li Zhongyan knelt in front of his father's room for two days and two nights in order to be able to be with Han Xie in an open and aboveboard manner, but failed to soften Li's father's heart.

Father Li also remembered the old things back then, and walked out tremblingly with red eyes.

Li Zhongyan wiped away the tears gushing out of his eyes, stood up, walked out of the house and strode towards the city wall.

Now, no one can stop them from being together.
