General, he's cheating again

The first bright fireworks to bloom in the night sky were ignited by Leng Ji.In response to this, a long second branch was subsequently ignited near the city gate.

Under the fireworks, several homing pigeons were released from the banks of the Minjiang River. They waved their wings and flew to the same destination hidden in the night.

The uninformed people nearby only felt that the fireworks were dreamy, but they didn't know that this was an order to kill.

At that time in Fuzhou City, several foreign leaders who had gathered with the King of Southern Fujian looked up at the fireworks and couldn't help feeling flustered.They can probably guess the source of the fireworks, but Gu Zhen has already arrived near Fuzhou City, and they are afraid that they will attack the city soon.

However, Hua Yan and Buwen, who received a letter from Feige the next morning, recorded the places where the Fanbang people were lurking in the southeast area according to the recent days, led a group of killers to ambush them one by one, and wrote back to Gu Zhen to tell them the two People's current location - Taizhou, ask for support.

The Deputy Envoy of Tingfenglou and Li Zhenyi, the head of the Baihui Escort Bureau, also joined Gu Zhen the day after Gu Zhen and his party arrived in the suburbs of Fuzhou.

After the gathering, only the deputy envoy of Tingfenglou and a group of killers were left in the camp to guard, and the rest followed Gu Zhen to Taizhou.

In the city, the King of South Fujian and a group of foreign leaders have not heard any changes outside Fuzhou since they watched the fireworks at night. They couldn't help but feel strange. It stands to reason that if Gu Zhen had already arrived near Fuzhou, how could he have been dormant for so many days? action.

Therefore, even if the gates of Fuzhou City are closed, they are very safe at the moment.

But they are still in a state of anxiety all day long, scratching their heads and worrying more and more anxiously.

Finally, they discussed and decided to send some soldiers to investigate around Fuzhou City.As a result, a small crack was opened on the city gate that had been closed for many days.

A few strong men came out from the gap in the city gate. They swaggered and inspected the outskirts of the city with dignity.

After bragging about for half a day, they came to the upper reaches of the Minjiang River and found a huge grave in front of a slaughtered village.

And there was a fan with a rotten corpse kneeling beside the grave, and he couldn't help being horrified.

After looking at each other in blank dismay, they still boldly decided to go into the village to investigate, but they did not find a single corpse after a round of inspection.

As a result, they are now more and more certain that someone buried the villagers' bodies under the big grave at the head of the village.

They were very disdainful of this good man who did good deeds in their hearts, and they put the sword into the grave bag with a smirk on their faces, intending to push the grave.

They didn't want to interrupt their swords before they were half a foot into the grave, when a masked man in black interrupted them.

"What are you doing?"

The black-clothed masked man was slender, with murderous aura in his eyes, holding the scabbard in one hand and the hilt in the other as if drawing a sword.

Seeing this, the soldiers straightened up, relying on their numbers, they said arrogantly: "Are you blind?

Laozi pushes the grave! "

"Like pushing graves?"

The masked man in black stared at the man who was answering Fang Fang, his voice was cold when he spoke, and his expression seemed calm, but careful observation revealed that the back of his hand holding the sword hilt had bruised veins.

Feeling the strong oppressive force, the soldiers could not help but take a step back, but in the blink of an eye, they found a group of ghostly killers appeared behind the masked man at some point.

Then they ran away, but no matter how hard they tried, these ghostly and shadowy people could always stand in front of them and block their way.

The blade of the long sword reached the soldier's neck, and the killer approached the soldier step by step and retreated step by step, until his legs became limp and he fell to the masked man's feet.

The masked man didn't leave him a single corner of the eye, he just quietly watched the soldier's accomplice die by the killer's sword.

After the fallen soldiers were completely silent, the masked man glanced at the soldiers kneeling at his feet and said coldly, "I'll give you an hour to bury them."

Hearing this, the soldier's eyes were full of surprise, and after realizing it, he answered "yes" repeatedly, and within half an hour he piled up a small grave bag.

The soldier dropped his sword and stared blankly at the masked man, thinking he could leave, but he only heard the masked man order in a cold voice: "Push it, and pile it up again.

Stack it up and push it away.

If you dare to stop, I will break one of your tendons. "

Being able to come up with such a sinister way to torture people, the soldier wondered to himself if he really met Gu Zhen.

Rather than dying at the hands of Gu Zhen's evil spirit, and the soldier gritted his teeth, it would be better for him to finish it all himself.

While the masked man and the killer were not paying attention, the soldier suddenly slammed his head against the stele and fell on the grave behind the stele with his head bleeding.

However, the soldiers sent out of the city to inquire about the news did not return to the city for a long time, and the leaders waited for another day before sending another wave of recruits out of the city to inquire.

With the lessons learned from the past, the soldiers acted more cautiously this time, but in the end they were no match for the killers of Tingfenglou, and were still captured by the deputy envoy of Tingfenglou and returned to their tents.

For a while, the outside of the city gate was actually a more terrifying place than the inside of the city gate.

Because several waves of soldiers and guards disappeared after leaving the city, when the leader finally ordered people to go out of the city to investigate, internal strife broke out in the barracks.

The generals were unwilling to be used as scapegoats for unnecessary sacrifices, and even threatened that if the leaders were really curious about whether Gu Zhen had arrived outside the city of Fuzhou, then leading a large number of troops to fight out of the city would be better than giving Gu Zhen's head for nothing.

The leaders were silent for a while, most of them were defeated by Gu Zhen's father Gu Qinan in the early years.

So far, there is still an indelible shadow about Gu Qinan's sinister and fierce fighting methods in his heart.As the saying goes, the blue is better than the blue, if they rush out and break their original plan, they will lose the opportunity.

When the time fell into Gu Zhen's hands, they couldn't even imagine how miserable their end would be.

The current strategy is to endure, the enemy does not move and the enemy does not move, so as to respond to all changes with the same.

It's just that the King of Minnan, who was unable to take any action, became more and more depressed. After this incident, most of the confidence in his heart that was full of confidence gradually disappeared.

Sitting in the mansion all day long, he couldn't help but recall Lin Wenshan who was crushed into the dungeon of Gu's mansion after failing to plot against him.

He heard that the first torture Gu Zhen used on Lin Wenshan was waterboarding.

Lin Wenshan lost control of his bowels and feces after being tortured for only half an hour, as if he was drowning in water all the time, struggling between life and death.

Thinking about the American princess who was upside down with him day and night in the bed, looking for fun, now he has become a carrion in the market.

So can he really succeed?

Even if there are two such tragic examples before his eyes, can he still say with [-]% certainty: "Gu Zhen will definitely die by the sword of this king."

The sun is shining in the sky, the sun is selfless, and the rain and dew are even, but this world is different, there can only be one monarch with more than ten thousand people.

The ambition is unquenchable in his chest, and the King of Minnan does not want to miss this opportunity to win the Ninth Five Supreme.

So since he chose to rebel, he would not back down, no matter how terrifying and powerful Gu Zhen was, he would try his best.

As for Taizhou, since Gu Zhen and others met Hua Yan, they started fighting.

They broke through separately according to the hidden points of the Fanren recorded, and the result was that the amount of riots in the southeast area suddenly doubled compared with the previous one.

As if a pot had exploded, the dissident who had been dormant for a long time, seeing that he was short of success, simply smashed the pot, and burned, killed and looted without any scruples in the stalemate with Gu Zhen and others.

As if evil spirits broke into the world, they lost their minds and made troubles.Between swords and swords, their actions became more and more crazy.

This is the first time Ah Ren believed that the original fire could really burn and spread half of the city, reflecting the red and dark blue night sky, and burning blood as black as a river.

Ashes were floating in the air, and the flames seemed to break through the sky.

Looking around again, the dormant aliens were almost savagely crazy, and they became more and more fearless.

All the soldiers walking together are the same as Ah Ren at this moment, when they encounter dissidents, they will be killed.

When they met people trapped in the fire, they rushed into the fire to save them regardless of life and death.

And when Ah Ren rushed into the fire and picked up the little girl who was trapped in it and planned to leave, the little girl's ashen hand touched Ah Ren's burned arm lightly, and her round and big eyes stared at him. Looking at Ah Ren, he shook his head slightly.

"Brother, don't save me.

I crawled in by myself. "

The little girl pushed Ah Ren out a few steps, and then curled up into a ball again, "There are so many devils out there, I don't want to go out, I'd rather be burned to death here."

Yes, maybe it's not a blessing for someone as young as her to survive in this troubled world.

Seeing the fire getting hotter and hotter, Ah Ren held back his sobs and turned away.

The grief and indignation burned in his heart, when he escaped from the fire and found the first alien holding a blunt knife on the night road, without waiting for that person to react, Ah Ren stabbed the blade in his hand hard into that person. human heart.

The man who was pushing his chest with the handle was pressed against the wall by Ah Ren, as if his eyes were reddened, Ah Ren yelled at the man, "Beast!

Why set fire!

Why kill!

Do you have no family?Why impose suffering on the weak! "

The man's heart was stabbed by the blade, and the pain and terror caused him to keep his eyes open at the last moment of his life, unable to rest in peace.

The blunt knife in his hand fell to the ground, and he couldn't answer Ah Ren's almost crazy questions.

Or maybe, if he was still alive and he could roll Ah Ren under his feet, he wouldn't even bother to answer.

This night of fire was comparable to the Shura Field of Hell. It was not until the next morning when a ray of light shone through the smoky city that people realized that the fire had been extinguished and the evil spirits in the city were dead. .

Gu Zhen and others gathered at the gate of the city. After several days of hard work, the territory was finally restored to stability.

Hua Yan and Bu Wenqing counted the number of casualties in the team and counted a hundred people, but compared with the civilians killed by the rebels these days, the hundred people are extremely insignificant.

Exhausted, he slumped at the foot of the wall and let his thoughts go. Gu Zhen put the back of his hand on his forehead and slowly closed his eyes for a nap. He had never been so eager to live. At this moment, all he could think about and see was Qin Qingrong's appearance.

Because he hadn't closed his eyes for a few days, Gu Zhen was already exhausted.

Therefore, when he heard his subordinates report that someone had burned the city last night, Gu Zhen was calm on the surface, but panicked in his heart.

You must know that if he encounters fires one after another and there are endless bandits to kill, if he is in a trance for a moment during the battle, he will probably fall into the scorching fire and be burned alive or die in the hands of others. knife edge.

However, if he died like this, Qin Qingrong who was waiting to see him would definitely be disappointed.

It was hard for him to get that wooden beauty Qin Qingrong to believe him and fall in love with him, and his greatest wish was to die together with Qin Qingrong, so how could he fail Qin Qingrong and himself just because of one setback.

I remember that the night before his departure, he teased Qin Qingrong in every possible way, but Qin Qingrong refused to give it to him.

These days, he thought about it with regret, even now.

Unable to raise the corners of his mouth, Gu Zhen silently smiled helplessly at Qin Qingrong's stubborn temper.

He thought that if Qin Qingrong insisted on asking him for it that night, he would have yielded to Qin Qingrong within less than half a moment, and then the pain would intensify.

His fingers caught in mid-air, and the person who was with him day and night a few days ago has become so far away now.

Gu Zhen fell asleep in a daze, a passage echoed repeatedly in his mind——

Qingrong, you must trust me, okay?

Don't worry, I believe in you.

At that time in the capital, Song Xun issued a death order, and no one was allowed to inquire about the Fuzhou battle without his approval.

As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days for a bone to be injured, Qin Qingrong's broken leg has not healed for a long time, and he has never got out of bed these days.

Qin Xiaoxiao was also imprisoned in the mansion by Song Xun for the reason of preparing to enter the palace as a concubine.

Just when the brothers and sisters who were unable to use their hands and feet were at a loss, Zhang Tingyu secretly brought the news of Fuzhou City into the Qin Mansion at night to talk to Qin Qingrong.

These two people are like the bright moon and the breeze, and the other is like Shandai Xinghe. They always dislike each other when they meet each other on weekdays. Now they turn enemies into friends for Gu Zhen and unite as one.

Zhang Tingyu's brows were bright, and he didn't look like he was hit.

So Qin Qingrong, who was sitting on the bedside, put down the book in his hand, looked at Zhang Tingyu indifferently and said bluntly: "It seems to be good news."

"It's nice to deal with smart people, but it's just not fun.

You guessed it, good news. "

Sitting unhurriedly on the wooden chair beside the table by the window, Zhang Tingyu poured himself a cup of tea and said slowly: "Yesterday I received a letter from a colleague who had worked with me before, saying that the King of Southern Fujian is now They didn't dare to go out of the city gate, and they were waiting for Gu Zhen to strike first, but they didn't see any movement from Gu Zhen for a long time."

Hearing this, Qin Qingrong couldn't help but frown, "Calculating the time carefully, Gu Zhen should have already arrived in Fuzhou.

How could there be no movement for so long? "

"Gu Zhen has a lot of tricks, and he is only a hundred soldiers. If he wants to win a battle, he must not follow the usual path." Saying this, Zhang Tingyu was also thinking secretly in his heart, and whispered, "So what is he doing? What kind of halls?"

"No matter what the name is, it's good that he can survive."

Finally hearing the good news, Qin Qingrong's tense heart finally relaxed a little bit.

But thinking about it in the long term, if Gu Zhen can really come back alive this time, will the emperor just let Gu Zhen go?

Thinking of Song Xun's tyrannical and innocent appearance now, Qin Qingrong felt sad again, I'm afraid it would be difficult.
