Through the palace of the king of subjugation

More than a month ago, Bai Ou led his people to the city and found out that not only could he not enter the city, he couldn't even touch the edge of the city, no wonder the previous half-word information could not be transmitted.

Sigou took away the most elite group of people from the intelligence department before. When it was Baiou's turn, on the one hand, he was worried about leaving Li Yu alone in Jiangning to face everything, and on the other hand, he didn't have so much time to clean up the army.

Fortunately, most of the main force of the battle stayed in the waiting city. When he left, he only picked up a dozen or so skilled fighters, and hurried on the road.

The team in his hands now is far inferior to the group led by Sigou before, no matter in terms of fish in troubled waters, ability to find out news, or familiarity with the city.

Fortunately, Li Yu and Li Yu walked out of the canyon and wandered outside for a while. At that time, because he was worried about the safety of the little beauty, he carefully studied the terrain near Yongcheng. Enter the vicinity of the city.

Before leaving Jiangning, for Li Yu's plan, one of the military uniforms of the garrison in the city counted as one, and all the white gulls were left for Li Yu; in order not to attract attention on the road, they all pretended to be ordinary people on the road. Now that we are going into the mountains, I just tore off the clothes, wiped my face, and acted like a bandit.

The garrison under him in the city, a group of well-known military ruffians, are now acting in their true colors, no different from bandits who have fallen into bandits.

Bai Ou thinks it's funny, he went from a university professor all the way to a first-rank official in the imperial court, and now he's turned into the head of a cottage again, his life is really colorful.

They pretended so much that they would nod and say hello to each other if they met each other.

So, when they finally found a place near Daicheng from Yongcheng, they really met a "peer"...

During the years of war and famine, bandits are often rampant. This is not surprising to Baiou, but this wave of people does not know what genre of bandits they belong to. There is no such thing as "I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, and I will pass by here." Leave the opening remarks of "buying road money".

The two forces had just met face to face, and the people on the opposite side did not speak, and directly moved their hands.

Bai Ou was very clear about the background of the people he had brought, and he had an advantage in the number of people. He didn't worry at all, and he didn't need to make a move. He just watched quietly from the sidelines.

In less than half a stick of incense, the other party was packed up. One by one, their hands were cut behind their backs, and they knelt down on the ground with a sharp knife on their necks.

"The skill is pretty good." Bai Gu praised quite sincerely.

The opponent's skills are indeed impressive, not like ordinary bandits who rely on brute force.

"I'll give you ten sentences—" With his hands behind his back, Youyou walked out from behind the subordinates blocking him, "Explain this matter clearly to me."

"You—" He glanced around, "Just rush to speak, and you don't need to raise your hands. Anyway, if the person behind is not as good as the one in front, he will be chopped off directly."

"If you can't understand one thing in ten sentences, I'll send you off—" He tilted his head and gave a weird smile, "Let's go together."

If you directly inquire about the situation in the city, you may expose your identity and scare the snake, but this place is already very close to the territory of the city, Bai Gu asked an ambiguous question, thinking that maybe you can hear something useful from Waiting's fast-talking answers news; but don’t want to—

The mouths of a group of ordinary bandits were so hard that no one made a sound for a long time.

The white gull raised his eyes and signaled with his eyes, and the subordinate who held his head with his left hand immediately understood, and raised the sharp knife in his hand high.

Originally, he just wanted to scare people and come up with some words, but the Bandit, who didn't want to be detained, was very alert. Taking advantage of the gap when the people behind him raised their sharp blades a little exaggeratedly, he turned around and got out of control.

He caught off guard and turned over the person who came up to stop him, and ran away regardless of his companion beside him.

Everything happened too fast, and before anyone reacted to chase after him, just when everyone thought that this person was about to run away, the setting sun pierced a bit of coldness against the chaotic warm yellow background.

Speed ​​has always been the advantage that no one can match the white gull. He is a leopard on the grassland that is faster than the wind.

He struck back and kicked the man from the back to the ground. Just as the man fell to the ground and was about to draw out his sidearm, he found that a thin blade had already been pressed against his throat.

Back then in the garrison camp in the city, although not everyone remembered the appearance of the white gull, everyone knew that their general had three treasures.

A pot of small-leaf privet kept in the handsome tent and protected like a daughter-in-law, an exquisite dagger stuck in the side of the boot that never leaves the body, and the famous pair of special-looking knuckles.

Many people may not have the chance to see the first two, but this last one may not have the chance to see the real product, but many people in the camp found similar "fakes" through various channels and imitated them secretly, but they didn't hear It is said that there is one person who can practice it.

The thin iron blade that popped out of the slot machine was chilly. Seeing that the person in front of him was about to cry, Bai Gu thought it was frightened; but he didn't want the other party to open his mouth. happy--

"General! Really... are you back?"

"I knew...you...wouldn't really leave us alone..."

*****

In a hidden cave deep in the dense forest, a bonfire has already been lit, and the white gull is holding half a dry grain cornbread in his hand.

He had already washed off the fake dirt on his face, and the firelight made his profile face more handsome and well-defined.

When Chen An came in, he choked up several times seeing the scene in front of him. The two looked at each other, speechless for a long time.

Until he felt that the half bowl of stick noodle porridge in his hand was going to be completely cold, he looked at the half piece of coarse grain steamed bread in Baiou's hand, handed the porridge bowl, and said embarrassedly: "I have wronged the general."

"It's okay." Bai Gu smiled, and his eyes froze when he took the porridge bowl.

Even the porridge made with stick noodles and wild vegetables is as light as clear water, and you can almost see the bottom of the bowl.

"Your Majesty and adoptive father..." Chen An seemed to have seen the emotional change in Bai Ou's eyes, and changed the topic somewhat awkwardly, "Is everything all right?"

"It's all good." Bai Ou nodded, and put the porridge bowl at his feet, "Old Chen Ge can already stand up and face up, his legs and feet are not very flexible, but he is in good spirits; before he left, he asked me to take him with him Let the two little Chen adults feel at ease."

"As long as everything is fine, as long as everything is fine..." Chen An repeated it twice before asking: "Then Jiangning City, okay?"

"Everything is fine in the court." Bai Ou knew what Chen An wanted to ask, and he also knew what Li Yu was planning and going through at the moment.

Thinking of this, he nodded heavily again, affirming: "Everything will be fine."

There was another awkward silence, Chen An knew that some things cannot be hidden.

He walked and sat down on the boulder opposite the white gull, and seemed to muster up the courage to say: "I have heard about the incident in the forest, general, don't blame them, they are just on duty."

Winter has gradually entered the north, and the cave is especially damp and cold.

"It's not easy for Chen Bang to bring so many people out of the waiting city. There are only these people left, and no one dares to be careless." He stretched out his hand and roasted it on the bonfire in front of him, and then continued, "Nearby There are people on duty on the mountain every day, and they didn't recognize the general, and they were afraid that someone would find us and leak the news, and offend the general."

Chen An and Chen Yan are the same people, and how upright they have acted in this life, they can make him lose his gentility and stoop to pretend to be a bandit. Baiou doesn't know how difficult it must be.

"Why—" He looked at the half-bowl of water-like porridge in his hand, and said in a heavy tone, "Is it so difficult?"

"Hey——" Chen An sighed deeply, the words came to his lips, and he was about to say it several times, but he was choked back again, "General——"

After a long time, he could barely finish his sentence, "Daicheng...is gone..."

Be it defeated or captured, what do you mean by...

Gone?

White Gull frowned.

He was very anxious, but seeing Chen An's painful expression, he couldn't bear to ask.

"It's Chen An—" Chen An suddenly knelt down heavily and kowtowed.

Although we still don't know exactly what happened, there is no need to repeat how serious the situation has become.

"Now is not the time to judge who is right and who is wrong." Bai Ou didn't get up to help Chen An up, but just raised his neck and closed his eyes, and sighed softly, "I want to know how things happened."

"Is it true that the general hasn't heard anything about it?" Chen An looked up in shame, "Then the general has heard about the defeat in the battle outside the city?"

Regarding the military report of the humiliating battle outside the city, Li Yu showed it to Bai Ou, and they even analyzed the whole process carefully, and now Bai Ou roughly recounted it to Chen An.

In the battle report that Bai Ou got, the information was very limited, but he was able to analyze the reasons for the entire defeat in detail; Chen An heard the words and said in admiration: "The general is wise."

Bai Gu waved his hand casually, and cut directly to the topic, "So, when is the time to start the war?"

The "ten days ago" in the report was the only doubt in Baiou's mind. Sigou's information has always been more detailed and reliable than that of the Ministry of War. This is the first time that the two have such a big contradiction.

"Sigou's information is indeed correct." Chen An affirmed, "It's just that why the Ministry of War received such a battle report at such a time, I can't think of a reason for the time being."

"Then there are omissions and deviations in the battle report of the Ministry of War?" Bai Gu then asked.

"Basically, it's the truth. The troops that went to the battle outside the city that day were almost..." Chen An said with great gravity: "The whole army was wiped out."

Although he knew the general idea a long time ago, Bai Ou still couldn't help trembling with anger when he heard Chen An confirm such a bloody truth with his own ears.

He clenched his fists and tried to stabilize his emotions, "Since the report from the Ministry of War is correct, why do you think this is unreasonable?"

Chen An probably knows better than Bai Ou himself how inefficient the Ministry of War, Xiang Xingyan, and Xiang Hong's group of corpses are, and even if there is a delay in the report, it is normal.

Bai Ou didn't understand what Chen An couldn't understand.

"Because if you look at the date when the report was released—" Chen An shook his head, "At that time, Daicheng had already fallen and was under the control of Beiyin, so it was impossible for another report to be released."

Although there is some discrepancy between the time in Sigou's information and the report from the Ministry of War, the two time points are not far from each other.

A huge waiting city has [-] soldiers and civilians. Although more than [-] were lost in the battle of the outer city, most of them were those useless young soldiers, and they did not hurt the waiting city garrison trained by Baiou back then. foundation.

The team under him was a few catties and a few taels, and Bai Ou knew very well that even if this team could not completely win under the leadership of Xiang Hong, it would not be so complete in such a short period of time.

Not only did the city completely fall into the hands of the Beiyin people, Zhao Hongyin even took full control of the city, and even the intelligence network that Bai Ou personally set up at the beginning was incapable of spreading a word of news.

This speed is frighteningly fast, even unreasonably fast.

"Why is this?" Bai Gu finally asked this puzzling question.

"Because, the fiasco of the city outside the city was before the fall of the city—" Chen An said with great pain, "The only battle I have ever fought."

"Afterwards, Xiang Xingyan opened the door and bowed to the robbers, and surrendered to Beiyin. Zhao Hongyin entered the city without a single soldier."

The author has something to say: Yesterday I mentioned something that is about to end, everyone, don't panic!It will probably not be over until the end of this month or the beginning of next month, and there will still be candy trucks in the future!

After the end, it will seamlessly open a new one, and I won't leave everyone~ Will you leave me qaq... Or do you want to order a wave in advance? (For the sake of Ah Yu being so diligent? qwq)
