Only Fan Zhaoyang treated their calloused hands as spears to capture kings and kill generals, and regarded their lives, which were born as tiny loaches, as the lives of invincible generals.

How could they just abandon Fan Zhaoyang? The soldiers standing behind Lu Shengji gradually put down their bows and arrows. Lu Shengji had experienced many people and was very calm. How could he be frightened by Hou Mo? He put his hands behind his back and put on a cold and indifferent face:

"Fan Zhaoyang, you are a great general, but you went to a foreign tribe for personal gain, harming our soldiers, and you are a traitor. Since you have disobeyed the emperor's order, you will be doomed to die with Prince Xi."

When these words were spoken, all the soldiers on the city wall of Youzhou were indignant. However, it was irrefutable that Fan Zhaoyang was indeed a traitor to Sheng State. The dynasty of the country had not changed, and the imperial power was still in the hands of the Li family. It was his luck that he was not torn into pieces by five horses and his entire clan was exterminated.

In addition to being loyal to the Fan family, the soldiers in Youzhou were more loyal to the Sheng Kingdom. Upon hearing this, they drew their bows and arrows and pointed at Mu Jinan, Li Jingye and others on the city wall.

In Lu Shengji's eyes, which had experienced the vicissitudes of life, was reflected the shadow of towering mountains and vast seas and rivers. That was the woman, Mu Jinan, who had fought her way through the stormy officialdom and the bloody battlefield. The first thing he saw of her was not her beauty, but he was attracted by her solemn and majestic aura.

He had seen the mighty and majestic Emperor Ming, who had fought with the treacherous old prime minister, and who had charged through the enemy camp on horseback, but those were all men, and they were the iron wall of power that they had been accustomed to for thousands of years.

But today, the woman in front of him has won over many generals and righteous men, led the soldiers and civilians, and wanted to overthrow the power under his feet and step into the center of imperial power. He admired her and wanted to compete with her:

"Prince Xi, I heard that you once climbed up the tower of Sheng'an, but the tower of Youzhou has increased by a hundred feet in three months. Let's see how Your Majesty will destroy the city?"

This place is far away from the imperial city. Lu Shengji knows that Youzhou and Fanyang belong to the Lu family. He is not afraid even if a large army approaches. He points the silver bow in his hand at Mu Jinan:

"Anyone who blocks Xi from entering the city will be rewarded with a thousand taels, and anyone who captures King Xi alive will be rewarded with ten thousand taels."

The soldiers on the city wall were immersed in the situation and were already rolling around on a mountain of gold. Even if they were not given ten thousand taels of silver, they would not be treated badly. They picked up their bows and arrows again and shot a rain of blood in the desolate and lonely wilderness.

Mu Jinan never knew that she was worth ten thousand taels of gold, and the city wall was increased by a hundred feet. Based on the ability of these archers, could they possibly shoot her? Gains and losses were balanced. Obviously, the arrows only shot outside the position that Li Jingye had specially calculated.

Li Jingye was extremely silent today, so silent that Lu Shengji lost his composure. In the midst of the complete silence, a deep and earth-shattering voice spread across the northern border:

"Report, General Lu, the south, west, and east of the city have been breached, and our food and grass have all been taken away. It was done by General Dingnan, Heyuan Jiedushi Mu Jingyi, Shangzhuguo, Shuoxuan Jiedushi Mu Chen, and the assassin Zhang Zhenguang of Yanjun."

"And... and..."

Lu Shengji felt dizzy. He only looked at the northern tower, where most of the soldiers and horses were gathered. He couldn't believe that Mu Chen and Mu Jingyi secretly led troops to Youzhou for Mu Jinan. He had never heard of Zhang Zhenguang, and asked in panic:

"Don't hesitate, just speak up."

The soldier was about 25 years old. He wore grey armor, had a solemn and cold face, and a pair of piercing tiger eyes. His name was Jing Hong. He bowed his head and knelt on one knee:

"There was an ugly general who kidnapped more than a hundred people from your clan. He held a gun in one hand and held the clan name in the other. He checked the surnames according to the genealogy and killed them with a red pen. No one survived."

Lu Shengji's pupils trembled, and Chuanmei was shocked for him. Who in the world dared to kidnap Fanyang Lu? The bow and arrow in his hand loosened, and he asked with dignity:

"Who is it?"

The wind and sand swept past, covering Jinghong's eyes. He knelt down and answered, "I am here to sign up for the hope of the poor scholars in the world, the great general Huang, Huang Sanguo."
