Yangcheng

After Lan Zhongyu defeated Tong Shaoxuan, his arrogance was even more arrogant. The news that the spies sent back may not have been the result of their painstaking efforts, as if Lan Zhongyu declared war on Tong Shaoxuan through the mouth of the spies— —

It was only given for three days. If he did not open the gate of Chu County after three days to help him suppress the bandits, then his Lan family army would directly break into the city.

"Tong Inspector Tong's corpse is a vegetarian meal, but it is just a waste. After the general enters the city, he will give an explanation to the people of Chu County. Tong Inspector, wait to be tied back to Boling by this general for trial!"

Lan Zhongyu wrote the gauntlet, but Tong Shaoxuan didn't express his opinion after reading it. Ruan Yu, who was on the side, was a little annoyed.

"This guy surnamed Lan thinks far ahead. Not only does he want you to go to jail, but he also wants to take this opportunity to embarrass the emperor."

Ruan Yu slapped the gauntlet on the case, with a sullen look on his face.

Tong Shaoxuan knew that what Ruan Yue said was right, she was just a little governor who had just arrived in Qizhou, and Lan Zhongyu didn't take her seriously at all, so it would be better to send her back to Bo on a criminal charge than to kill her on the spot. Ling, let the whole center see how incompetent the celebrity around the emperor is.

It would be a very fatal blow to the emperor who followed suit and finally took the imperial power back into his hands gradually.

If Tong Shaoxuan was really taken back to Boling by him, the emperor would probably never reuse her in his life.

Her career has come to an end.

Presumably the emperor had already thought of this possibility when he sent her to Qizhou, but he still trusted her and put her in such an important position.

Whether it is to live up to the emperor or to live up to himself, Tong Shaoxuan has to raise his spirits.

This battle has put her life on the line, and she must not lose.

Reinforcements have arrived, but the number of reinforcements willing to reinforce her is more than half less than expected.

Tong Shaoxuan saw the soldiers who were scattered into the city on the tower, all mentally ill and even wounded soldiers...

It seems that people outside the southwest do not want to provoke Lan Zhongyu.

From everyone's point of view, after Lan Zhongyu occupied the southwest territory, he must go to the east to devour it.If he vigorously reinforces his opponent now, Qiuhou will not be able to settle the score.

Seeing the thousands of weak reinforcements, the subordinate officials were extremely anxious, and frequently wiped their sweat with their sleeves: "This...Could it be that Chu County is really exhausted?"

Like a jelly-like hot wind blowing, Tong Shaoxuan gently swayed the head and tail feet of the back of his head. On his young face, those eyes had a calmness beyond his actual age:

"Are you ready for what I asked you to prepare before?"

The subordinates replied feebly: "It's all ready."

"Okay." Tong Shaoxuan said softly.

The subordinates were a little confused, did the governor have an idea or no idea?

If you have an idea, why don't you feel excited?

But if I didn't pay attention, I didn't see her planning to escape.

I was defeated when I did pepper bombs before, and now I am still tossing some seemingly crooked things. I have been rectified by the Lan family army once, so I still don’t give up?

Everyone really couldn't understand what kind of medicine Tong Cishi sold in the gourd.

But no matter what Tong Cishi thought in his heart, the rest of the officials who were still sticking to Chu County were determined to follow her.

If Lan Zhongyu really attacked, they would die wisely and never fall into the hands of the thieves and be humiliated by the thieves.

On the eve of the war, General Qi came to Tong Shaoxuan and asked her to fight.

"Even if I die, I will die on the battlefield, and I will never be that prisoner!"

General Qi had just regained consciousness before, and when he knew that his right hand was cut off and would never come back, he started exercising his left hand while still lying on the hospital bed. The 50-year-old veteran, who was seriously injured, still has the spirit of swallowing mountains and rivers.

Everyone was persuading him not to force it, the injury of a broken arm is not a child's play, it needs to rest for a long time, otherwise this life can only be lost on the battlefield.

Tong Shaoxuan stared into his eyes, but did not persuade him, only said: "General Qi really wants to kill the enemy?"

General Qi shouted: "I want to! Of course I want to!"

"Okay, then the general will go and kill." Tong Shaoxuan said, "The general is here, and the army is united. You are the township of Chu County, and the three armies cannot live without you."

After hearing this, General Qi burst into tears.

Even if he lost his right hand, he is not a waste, Tong Cishi still regards him as a general.

Even if this old life is gone, he must prove it to Tong Cishi.

Even without one hand, he still has the other.

In this battle, he must compete with the old thief Nalan, and let him know who is the number one general in the Southwest!

It was as if God knew that there would be a great battle today, the sky was gray and cloudy, and there was not a single ray of light.

The miasma was mixed with fog, which somewhat obstructed the sight of the soldiers on the watchtower in Chu County.

But Lan Zhongyu's army was too numerous, even though the field of vision was not too wide, the soldiers still clearly observed the dark army that was approaching secretly.

The big war is just around the corner.

Today Lan Zhongyu took the command in person, wearing a golden armor and a phoenix-winged helmet on his head. Just looking at the big ax in his hand can make people feel cold all over his body, as if he has the power to open mountains.

The crimson cloak dances with the wind, the drums are powerful, and the Lan family army is about to attack the city.

Tong Shaoxuan stood on the tower, this time she put on the armor, and seeing the sound of the horse's hooves resounding in the distance, she asked someone to fire pepper bombs.

Lan Zhongyu found it funny.

I suffered a lot from using that broken pepper bomb last time, and I will use it again this time.

This is the so-called child prodigy?I just see it as a blind eye.

Lan Zhongyu's army immediately put on glazed goggles and covered their mouths and noses with tarpaulins. The heavy iron armor that defends against the siege is also a must-have equipment for siege battles.

Facing the red mist of the pepper balls, the Lan family army's momentum remained undiminished, getting closer and closer to the city wall of Chu County.

Lan Zhongyu observed the changes in the red mist.

This layer of spicy and charming red mist did not dissipate with the wind, but became thicker and thicker.

"No..." Lan Zhongyu clenched the reins tightly, and the horse under him was also restlessly restless.

That's not pepper balls, but...

Colored smoke.

The billowing dark red smoke soon fascinated the Lan Family Army's vision.

Although there is an oilcloth covering the mouth and nose, the smoke will not be able to help them for a while, but the smoke gradually becomes thicker, and it does not dissipate like a pepper bomb when the wind blows. No matter how strong the mouth and nose are covered, it will still make people breathless after a long time Get angry.

What's more deadly is that the smoke is like the thick smoke produced by burning incense and inexplicable things. It is mixed with miasma and fog, and gradually adheres to the glazed eye mask, making the vision of the Lan family army more and more hazy. depending on things.

It turned out that the pepper balls were just to confuse, and what they wanted was for the Lan family army to put on the glazed blindfolds.

As long as you wear it, it will be painted with color.

If you pick it up and run out of the smoke, you will be hit head-on by pepper bombs.

For a while, the Lan family army was in chaos, and they slowed down before reaching the city of Chu County.

After all, Lan Zhongyu was a battle-tested veteran, so he didn't panic. He quickly adjusted his formation and used cavalry to disrupt the opponent's formation. will be greatly weakened.

This matter was expected by the veterans of Chu County.

Before the battle, Tong Shaoxuan had listened to the opinions of all parties. It is often said that the military generals in the southwest knew Lan Zhongyu well. A brave and resourceful military genius.

Cao Xiaowei had confronted Lan Zhongyu several times, and he was the one who knew Lan Zhongyu's tactics best.

"The Lan family's army is well-trained. After being surrounded by smoke, Lan Zhongyu will definitely change his formation immediately and forcefully break through from the left flank."

Under the night light, Tong Shaoxuan's face showed the same stern look as the former governor of Qizhou:

"What I want is him to force it."

Consistent with Cao Xiaowei's thinking, although the Lan family army has a large number of people, it is not difficult to change the formation at all.

In the blink of an eye, the center of the army formation shifted to the left wing, trying to forcefully break through from the left wing.

Just when there were signs of tearing apart the enemy's formation, suddenly a burst of flames rushed towards them.

The thick iron armor worn to defend against the volley of thousands of men will quickly heat up when exposed to fire, and it is so hot that people are thrown off their feet.

Originally, the climate in the southwest was humid and hot, making people breathless, and it was very uncomfortable to wear heavy iron armor, but all the Lan family troops survived the practice of Lan Zhongyu's devil's tricks. Tolerate.

But the hot weather and the severe pain after being burned, as if being caught in the middle of an iron plate, are completely different things.

And Tong Shaoxuan found inspiration from the swinging arm of the fan he used to give Tang Jianwei to cool off in summer.Twenty huge rockers and blades were made, each of which required 50 people to move together.

The wind was blowing and the fire was strong, and a team was specially dispatched to throw kerosene at the Lan family army. The flames burned one foot high, chasing the Lan family army and burning wildly.

The iron armor is like an iron pot. The soldiers wearing the iron armor feel that they are almost cooked, and the entire left wing of the Lan Family Army has a strange smell of barbecue...

The soldiers immediately took off their armor without caring about anything else.

Once they take off their iron armor, thousands of nails are waiting for them.

Lan Zhongyu was furious when he saw his soldiers being roasted or nailed into hedgehogs.

He personally led the main cavalry to kill them.

Lan Zhongyu is the backbone of the Lan family army, with his big axe, all the soldiers of the Lan family army were excited, and they all ran into the enemy's formation as if they were desperate.

Tong Shaoxuan stood above the city gate and saw Lan Zhongyu wielding the ax in his hand, he would chop anyone he saw, and when the ax went down, his arms and legs would be split by him, and his head might be smashed to pieces in an instant.

Tong Shaoxuan had never seen such a fierce and cruel person.

Lan Zhongyu was covered in blood from the killing, and he couldn't stop laughing.

This is his feast. He likes blood and the feeling of beheading a living person.

Only the joy of controlling human life is the craziest joy in the world.

He saw Tong Shaoxuan on the city wall, and he warned Tong Shaoxuan with his bloody smile.

You are next!

Facing his threat, Tong Shaoxuan couldn't see any panic on his young face.

Lan Zhongyu's eyelids twitched.

The fear of not getting the prey put him in a bad mood.

And all of a sudden, almost instinctively, Lan Zhongyu suddenly turned his head, and saw a big knife whizzing towards the back of his head, cutting it across!

Lan Zhongyu immediately bent down to avoid it, and the phoenix-winged helmet was knocked to the ground by the knife.

General Qi held a knife in his left hand, bit the rein with his teeth, and freely steered the old war horse that he lived with day and night.

With a twist of his waist, he easily twisted the horse back, shouting and coming from the front to fight Lan Zhongyu!

Lan Zhongyu laughed and shouted "Okay". In order to respect General Qi, who is disabled but has integrity and blood, he also bit the rein with his teeth, freeing up his right hand, imitating General Qi's appearance and using his not-so-good left hand Holding an axe.

The two faced each other, and Tong Shaoxuan's heart was picked up.

A cold light flashed, and the two crossed branches again. Tong Shaoxuan's eyes were fixed on General Qi's back, and his palms were covered with sweat.

After General Qi swayed on the horse for a while, his body softened and he fell off the horse as if his soul was taken away in an instant.

Lan Zhongyu looked back, his facial features were twisted together, cold sweat dripped down like rain.

His neck was almost chopped off by the old man, but fortunately he barely escaped...

However, the shoulder still did not escape the extremely changing blow. At the moment when the two confronted each other, General Qi changed his slash to a stab, and the tip of the blade directly pierced the chain mail, and Lan Zhongyu was scratched from his left chest to his shoulder. There was a very deep wound.

He looked down, the blood was dripping, and his horse had been dyed red.

Lan Zhongyu covered his chest and laughed.

The old man is really capable.

"General Qi!" Tong Shaoxuan immediately went to rescue General Qi.

Shen Huiyu stopped her from leaving the city: "My lord, I'll go! I will definitely rescue General Qi!"

Because Lan Zhongyu was seriously injured, the Lan family army was caught off guard by Tong Shaoxuan's weird tactics, and finally the Lan family army failed to really rush into Chu County.

In this battle, Tong Shaoxuan won, and Chu County was saved.

Shen Huiyu was hit by an arrow in the back, but luckily it was not fatal.

She lived up to her mission and risked her life to bring back General Qi's body intact.

Tong Shaoxuan was full of reluctance, and together with Chu County, he helped General Qi to have a glorious burial.

Thanks to General Qi's blessing in this battle, Lan Zhongyu was seriously injured and was unable to attack for a while.

Tong Shaoxuan also captured nearly [-] Lan family troops.

Chu County is not big, there is no place for these [-] prisoners to stay, and as a prisoner, he is extremely arrogant, muttering:

"They are all the people of Da Cang, can you still kill me? If you are sensible, let me go, or when General Lan comes again, your heads will be cut off and kicked."

There is no self-consciousness of a prisoner at all, but the attitude of a ruler is full of aloofness.

Ruan Yu hated these soldiers, not to mention that General Ruan Meiruan, who was killed by Lan Zhongyu, was his cousin from the same branch.Although the two didn't grow up together since they were young, they met a few times during the holidays. It was Ruan Mei who was already a famous general, and Ruan Yue respected this cousin very much.

For Ruan Yue, Ruan Mei is a person of faith, and he never expected to be killed by Lan Zhongyu.

The Lan family army fell into the hands of Ruan Yue, how could they live comfortably?

"A prisoner has to look like a prisoner. What does it look like in the county town of Chu County? Throw it to the west mountain of Chu County and stay there. Don't occupy the people's territory in the city. It stinks." Ruan Yue said. Then he sent it away.

The captives were thrown into the West Mountain, where snakes, insects, rats and ants are everywhere, and there are also terrible vampire bats. Every night, the captives were bitten and screamed.

After Ruan Yu dealt with it for a period of time, he was honest.

In the process of rectifying the captives, Ruan Yue also had amazing gains beyond expectations.

Among the tens of thousands of prisoners were the centurion, the school lieutenant, the captain, and an accompanying Sima.

Ruan Yue didn't even notice Sima at first.This person wiped his face with black mud and always hid behind the crowd. Every time Ruan Yue and his followers passed by, he buried his face and did not dare to look at Ruan Yue.

Because of this, the careful Ruan Yu noticed this abnormal person and brought him up for interrogation alone.

After wiping off the black mud on his face, Ruan Yue found that he was still an acquaintance.

Isn't this Qin Liu, cousin Ruan Mei's personal bodyguard?

When their family held a family banquet in Boling before, Qin Liu followed his cousin to Ruan's house. Because Qin Liu had six fingers, Ruan Yue had a certain impression of him.

The cousin's personal bodyguard appeared in the camp of the captive Lan family army, which is very interesting.

Ruan Yue is a good interrogator, and together with Dali Temple Cheng Tong Shaoxuan, Qin Liu fell into the hands of the two, and was tortured to death for three days in a row, so he was instructed by the Lan family to betray Ruan Mei's information to Hu The people's affairs were vomited cleanly.

The truth came to light, it turned out that Qin Liu had been bought by Lan Zhongyu long ago, and he was colluding with the Hu people, leading to the tragic death of General Ruan Mei on the battlefield.

This is a real traitor!

Tong Shaoxuan and Ruan Yu immediately sent the trial file back to Boling, waiting for the emperor to make a decision.

Unexpectedly, the courier was killed, the interrogation file was burned on the spot, and Qin Liu also died suddenly overnight, completely dead.

Tong Shaoxuan and Ruan Yu expected that Lan Zhongyu's information was spread all over Qizhou, but they didn't expect such a private interrogation to leak out.

Even dare to kill the central messenger...

That's right, Lan Zhongyu is a villain who colludes with barbarians and murders loyal people. What can't he do?

Tong Shaoxuan kept his mind on it. At the beginning, Qin Liu sent out a copy of his testimony, and left a copy with Qin Liu's handprint.

No matter how many people will believe her when she spreads Lan Zhongyu's actions, as long as one percent of Lan Zhongyu's power in the southwest can be dismantled, the bloodshot eyes of her and Ruan Gong's all-night interrogation will not be in vain .

Lan Zhongyu betrayed the country and sought glory, and the murder of his colleagues was widely publicized. Although Lan Zhongyu did not completely fall from the throne of the Southwest Emperor, his prestige was also greatly reduced in the traitorous incident.

Lan Zhongyu was seriously injured, and was so angry that he smashed a dozen hip flasks.

Lan Zhongyu sat on the soft bed, his messy beard hadn't been taken care of for a while, and with strong anger in his eyes, he said to the people in black in front of him: "That little girl surnamed Tong, kill me!" .If she is still alive at dawn tomorrow, leave your heads in Chu County."

"Yes!" The man in black took the order and left.
