The Bad Man was nearly dead at the beginning and was picked up by Yang Shuzi and taken home

At this time, Lu Lingxuan was walking back and forth anxiously at the entrance of the dilapidated temple, while Zhang Zifan was sitting in front of a stone table, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"Zifan, didn't you say your uncle would send troops back to defend Luzhou? Why hasn't he come yet?"

Zhang Zifan also held his forehead with his hand, his face showing sorrow, and sighed:

"I don't know either. Logically speaking, a round trip from Taiyuan to Luzhou would take at most ten days.

My second uncle went back to Taiyuan to recruit troops ahead of time, so he should have arrived a long time ago. Why is there no news from Luzhou yet?"

Just now, Zhang Zifan and Ji Ruxue had discussed a plan and planned to split their troops into two groups. Ji Ruxue would follow the Liang army and send a letter, while Zhang Zifan would return to Luzhou for help.

The reason why he did not take action was because he received news from the only remaining Tongwenguan soldier in Luzhou that Li Cunxu had returned to Taiyuan to move troops more than ten days ago.

He speculated that Li Cunxu would return to Luzhou today. Once he took Luzhou back from Zhu Youzhen, he would take Lu Linxuan and Qingguo Qingcheng to seek help.

As a result, a group of people waited here for several hours, but no news came out from Luzhou.

It's not a good idea for me to act rashly at this moment. What if I leave just as my second uncle takes back Luzhou, and we miss each other perfectly?

Now he really is in a dilemma, neither knowing whether to leave nor stay. He doesn't know what to do. He can only pray silently that his uncle will act faster.

And on the other side of the suburbs of Luzhou, Li Cunxu was actually here!

Yes, in fact, Li Cunxu had already received reinforcements and help from the two masters of Zhong and Xiao from Taiyuan, and returned to Luzhou for assistance.

However, Li Cunxu did not immediately lead his men to Luzhou City to attack Zhu Youzhen and retake Luzhou City.

Instead, he hid on a hilltop outside the city, silently observing the movements in the city.

Li Cunzhong looked at Li Cunxu, who was wearing a mask and looking relaxed, and asked hurriedly: "Second brother, are we still not going up?"

"Don't be anxious! [Rhymed white]" Li Cunxu was wearing a yellow mask at this time, and one could clearly hear a hint of joy in his singing.

Li Cunzhong was so anxious that he was dying. Since he came here several hours ago, his second brother had been telling him not to rush. It was obviously a good opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the Liang army.

But Li Cunxu's idea was completely different from his, because just over ten days ago, a man who called himself "Master Brother Jianlu" sent him a letter.

The above analysis shows that Liang State had two emperors in one year, and the Bad People emptied the palace, so Liang State must be in an empty situation now.

He then deduced all of Zhu Youzhen's subsequent actions and told him to return to Taiyuan to get reinforcements.

Finally, he said that before he returned to Luzhou, he would hold Zhu Youzhen back alone, lead Wang Yanzhang into the city before four quarters after noon, and then sound a horn to the sky.

That would mean that the Liang army was in chaos, and he could take the opportunity to attack Zhu Youzhen in Luzhou from outside the city.

If everything goes well, Zhu Youzhen will surely be defeated this time, and Li Cunxu will be able to capture Zezhou, Huaizhou, Zhengzhou and other places along the way.

Even if Li Cunxu had enough soldiers, it would not be impossible to capture the Liang Kingdom's imperial capital, Bianzhou, which would be a great achievement in front of Li Keyong.

However, he was still skeptical about the letter at first, but thinking that returning to Taiyuan was a matter of time, and returning early would not affect his plans, he went back early.

However, he never expected that the message he received from Luzhou afterwards corresponded exactly to what was said in the letter, and Li Cunxu also took the letter seriously.

Now he just had to wait. As long as Senior Brother Jianlu really did as he said and went to Luzhou to disrupt the Liang army, then he would be able to accomplish extraordinary feats as he said.

Moreover, even if the senior brother didn't go, he could still ambush the Liang army in the suburbs. He would not lose anything in this deal.

So he is not at all anxious about Liang Jun's matter now. Instead, he has become very interested in that senior brother.

Such a talented person has never been reported to belong to any camp, and this letter just happens to be a token of his allegiance.

If such a person can be used by me in the future, then my plan to unify the nine provinces will be just around the corner!

If not, huh, then he can only die. After all, no one wants to have a strong enemy out of nowhere.

As for rashly attacking the Liang army now?

He really wanted to point at Li Cunzhong’s head and say, “Did you know there is a military position called scout?”

After all, even if he really attacked the Liang army now, once discovered by the Liang army scouts, Zhu Youzhen would definitely withdraw his troops in time, and the effect might not be as good as an ambush.

It would be best for him to keep his troops in place now. Why take the risk? So he ignored Li Cunzhong's words.

And he was also betting that the senior brother from Jianlu would definitely show up, because if he didn't show up next, there would be no need for him to write to himself in the first place.

At this moment, Li Cunxu suddenly saw a cloud of dust rising in the city. The fact that he could see it from such a distance showed that the senior brother had made quite a big noise.

"Old Nine, Old Ten, gather our soldiers and get ready~ [Rhyme White]"

Then he took off his mask and said happily: "Go to the army! [normal accent]"

He wanted to gamble again, betting that Anton Jun could lure Wang Yanzhang away, betting that he would send out a trumpet call. This was the confidence that Anton Jun gave him this time in a series of fulfilled prophecies.

He still didn't know what the senior brother was trying to do, because if he just wanted to save Li Xingyun, there was no need to do this.

But now that things have come to this point, he decided to take a gamble. If he succeeds, he will be the new emperor of the Kyushu land!

Execution Ground in Luzhou City

After receiving Zhu Youzhen's order, the remaining 2500-odd Liang troops no longer had the same high spirits as at the beginning.

The attack from Anton Jun just now was so terrifying that his figure could not be seen at all. Zhong Xiaokui was knocked away and fell in the ruins, his life or death unknown.

However, due to Zhu Youzhen's order, the soldiers in the front row could only raise their spears tremblingly and move slowly towards Anton Jun step by step.

The soldiers in the back row were completely different from before. They now really wanted to ask the soldiers in the front row to stop moving, otherwise they would have to follow.

Anton Jun put on a gentle face, but in Liang Jun's eyes he was like a devil from hell who could not be killed at all.

His figure disappeared again, and the next moment he picked up the soft sword, and then rushed into the place where the Liang army gathered again. He swung his sword and harvested the lives of Liang soldiers one after another.

"His Majesty!"

At this time, Wang Yanzhang, who was guarding outside the city, heard the loud noise just now and hurried to the execution ground, but he only saw that the place had become smoky and foul.

Even the sedan chair carrying His Majesty's throne was smashed. Zhu Youzhen's image was simply disgraceful at this time. He stood on the ruins with a dusty face, not looking like an emperor at all.

Wang Yanzhang was furious. He raised his spear and pointed it at An Dongjun in the Liang army, shouting, "Protect your majesty and capture the thief!"

The sound mixed with internal force resounded throughout the entire execution ground. The Liang army outside continued to pour in with guns and shields, surrounding Anton Jun layer by layer.

But Anton Jun just gave a mocking smile. At the moment, his plan was very successful. As long as Wang Yanzhang came to the execution ground, he could send a signal.

As for whether Li Cunxu is here now, he doesn't know. Anyway, he left after he made that attack. If he is really not here, there is nothing he can do.

Anyway, this move of mine must have left a deep impression on Zhu Youzhen.
