Yang Yinglong's order went on—concentrate on deploying defenses to deal with the imperial army that will soon gather in Hailong. At this time, Hailongtun is no longer as optimistic and confident as Loushanguan last time. Loushanguan, which was so dangerous and difficult to attack, was broken in one day. Although Hailongtun is more dangerous than Loushanguan, it is surrounded by many. How long will it last
The efficiency of Yang Yinglong's death guard is still very high. In the past few days, news about Yang Zhaolong and Chen Xiao has been sent to Yang Yinglong's case one after another:
"Yang Zhaolong came here for a few days and often drank alone."
Yang Yinglong smiled coldly: "As timid as a mouse!"
"Chen Xiao took in two new concubines the day before yesterday, both fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls!"
Yang Yinglong showed slight contempt: "Drunk and dreaming!"
"Yang Zhaolong has called his confidants twice in a row to discuss matters."
Yang Yinglong's tone was sharp: "Find out what they discussed!"
"Chen Xiao took advantage of the concubine's opportunity and sent people down the mountain to buy it. But he mixed his two youngest sons with the servants and sent them out of the mountain quietly."
Yang Yinglong's expression darkened immediately: "Find out where they are, and catch them all for me!"
Two days later, Yang Yinglong received news that the vanguard troops of the Ming army, Ma Qiancheng and Qin Liangyu, had rushed to Yangma City, and the vanguards of the two armies from Nanchuan Road and Yongning Road had arrived and joined them. At the same time, Ye Xiaotian's department was also marching towards the northeast of Hailongtun, faintly forming a corner with Ma Qiancheng.
Ye Xiaotian only has his own troops on this journey, but Ye Xiaotian has nearly 20,000 people (others are fighting less and less, but Ye Xiaotian is recruiting soldiers while fighting, and recruiting soldiers, so his army is gradually increasing. Strong), so the strength and strength of his soldiers and horses are still higher than the three-way army of Ma Qiancheng in Yangma City.
Yang Yinglong was struggling to deal with it, and his death guard sent the latest news: Yang Zhaolong called his confidants twice in a row, and the main content of the discussion was about the recent situation. Yang Zhaolong didn't have any expectations for Hailongtun's future, but he didn't find out any misdemeanors, but he was unavoidably depressed.
Yang Yinglong couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that, if Yang Zhaolong really did something wrong, then he would definitely kill him. But no matter what, Yang Zhaolong is always his younger brother, and he always feels uncomfortable when he kills his brother.
Immediately, news about Chen Xiao came again, and Chen Xiao took the opportunity of going to the Green Snake Store to inspect, and sent a young girl and his concubine wife down the mountain.
Yang Yinglong was furious, and immediately ordered someone to arrest him. One side controlled Chen Xiao, and the other side captured his concubine wife and young daughter. Before Yang Yinglong could interrogate, the spies who traced the whereabouts of Chen Xiao's two young sons reported that Chen Xiao's The two sons had entered Sinan under the escort of his loyal subordinates. After tracing, their traces disappeared on the post road to the north. If they continue to trace, they may enter the Central Plains, and it will take too long.
When Yang Yinglong heard this, he was immediately angry, and the evil turned to his gallbladder. When the suspicion of his younger brother Yang Zhaolong faded away, his suspicions had already focused on Chen Xiao, and now he even confirmed that Chen Xiao was the traitor.
Chen Xiao was brought to the Heavenly King Pavilion, her face was ashen and depressed. Seeing Yang Yinglong, he knelt down on the ground with a bang, and said in a trembling voice: "Heavenly King, I have been convicted! I also ask the Heavenly King to forgive this subordinate for his hard work and loyalty over the years. once."
Yang Yinglong kicked him to the ground, and said with an angry smile: "Loyalty? You cheated on the court, in order to save your own life and future, you don't hesitate to betray the Lord and beg for honor. How dare you say loyalty?"
Chen Xiao looked at Yang Yinglong in astonishment, a flash of fear suddenly flashed in his eyes, he suddenly understood, he thought it was Yang Yinglong who found out that he was arranging funeral arrangements and secretly sent his descendants out of Hailongtun, but he did not expect that Yang Yinglong actually Thought he had defected to the imperial court. The former one is just out of selfishness, but the latter is an unforgivable capital crime.
Chen Xiao groaned strangely: "Why did the Heavenly King say this? This subordinate was just confused for a moment, and couldn't bear to burn my family with me, so he had selfish thoughts and sent them out of the mountain. This subordinate is appreciated by the Heavenly King. I dare not forget the kindness of my encounter. , naturally want to share life and death with the king of heaven, how could he do such a thing as surrendering the enemy and betraying the Lord!"
Yang Yinglong raised his head to the sky and laughed wildly, glaring at Chen Xiao with murderous intent: "How dare you lie to me with sweet words! You sent your son, daughter, and even your mother-in-law out of the mountains one by one just to preserve a line of blood for your Chen family? Hehe, as long as Give you a few more days, and your two grown-up sons will be sent away quietly by you, right?"
At this time, Chen Xiao's eldest son and second son were also tied up in the hall. After a while, his brother, wife and concubine, and even the concubine's wife and six-year-old daughter who were sent out of the mountain this time were all taken away one by one. came in.
Seeing that the whole family was arrested, Chen Xiao felt terrified, crying and begging: "Heavenly King, you really misunderstood! My eldest son and second son, the subordinates have already told them about the current situation, and asked them to work together with the subordinates for The Heavenly King is loyal to death and never thought of sending them away from Hailongtun."
Chen Ling's eldest son and second son nodded their heads: "That's right, Heavenly King, my father did tell us so."
Yang Yinglong said coldly: "Of course you say so now."
Chen Xiao was in a hurry: "Heavenly King, everything this subordinate said is true!"
Yang Yinglong spread his five fingers, slowly clenched the hilt of the sword, and pulled out the sword inch by inch, and said coldly: "Your heart is separated from your belly, and Yang can't tell your good from evil. Since you are loyal to me, you are willing to If you died for me, then use your death now to prove your loyalty!"
Yang Yinglong waved his hand casually, and the long sword flashed across the sky like a pool of autumn water. One of Chen Ling's concubines covered his throat, and looked at Yang Yinglong in err, err, horrified, with blood gushing out from between the fingers in his throat.
A corpse fell to the dust with a bang, and the little girl burst into tears when she saw her mother's tragic death. Chen Ling was trembling all over, and said choked up with tears: "Heavenly King, my subordinate really has never had any second thoughts about you, never Be careful!"
Yang Yinglong remained unmoved, and slowly raised the long sword in his hand, at this moment a little girl's voice sounded: "Daddy!"
Yang Yinglong paused, looked back, and saw a seven or eight-year-old girl with bright eyes, white teeth and picturesque eyebrows running in quickly, followed by a helpless Tian Female Feng, and the little girl Yang Yinglong's biological mother, Tian'er, the seventh wife of Yang Yinglong.
The little girl is Yang Hua, the youngest daughter of Yang Yinglong. Yang Yinglong changed into a kindly smiling face, bent down to pick up his daughter, and said, "Huahua, what are you doing here?"
Yang Hua angrily said to Yang Yinglong: "Father, Xiuxiu is my good friend, why did you kill her mother?"
Yang Yinglong hung his bloody long sword and said to Yang Hua: "Huahua, do you know that Xiuxiu's father and mother betrayed our Yang family? This Xiuxiu was just sent out of Hailongtun by her father. You know her What does daddy want to stay here for? They are going to kill your dad, your mother, and you too."
Chen Xiao roared loudly: "I don't! I don't! I really don't!"
The little girl named Xiuxiu also said with tears in her eyes: "My father really sent me and mother away, saying that I was too young to stay on the mountain with him to die. Father never said that he would be sorry to the king of heaven."
After hearing this, Huahua looked back at Yang Yinglong, Yang Yinglong smiled and looked at his daughter: "Huahua, do you believe what daddy says, or what they say?"
Yang Hua looked at Yang Yinglong, then at Xiuxiu who was streaming down her face, and hesitated.
Yang Yinglong said softly to Yang Hua: "Huahua, in this world, anyone can harm you, only your parents will spoil you and love you without asking for anything in return. Who do you think you should trust? Your parents are almost Being killed by others, including you, do you think you should protect her
Think about it, if dad hadn't discovered all of this, our family would have died here. They betrayed dad, and they could still be rich and prosperous, and Xiuxiu could still wear the best clothes and eat the best food. Her parents doted on her and loved her, but what about you then? "
Listening to what her father said, Yang Hua gradually showed an angry expression.
Yang Yinglong put his daughter down slowly, put the hilt of the sword into her hand, held her hand with his own big hand, squatted down, and whispered softly in her ear: "Huahua, you are my daughter of Yang Yinglong. You are not a girl from an ordinary family, you have to remember that you are unusual. You have to distinguish between love and hatred, right and wrong, and take responsibility better than an ordinary man!"
Yang Yinglong took a slow look at Xiuxiu, who was full of tears, and his voice became colder: "They betrayed father and the Yang family, they are our big enemies. Huahua, Xiuxiu is your friend, father will not kill her. Come and kill her!" !"
Yang Hua's small body trembled a bit, but when she turned her head and saw her father's encouraging eyes, her immature little hand involuntarily clenched the sword tightly. Yang Yinglong held his daughter's hand, slowly raised the sword in her hand, and pointed it at Xiuxiu's small body.
"No! Huahua, we are good friends, don't kill me!"
Xiuxiu cried out in horror and wanted to shrink back, but the guard's big hand was firmly on her shoulder, preventing her from moving.
"Flower..."
Xiuxiu cried out in despair, after all, Huahua was still an eight-year-old child, she closed her eyes in fear, but she never let go of the hand holding the sword, letting her father hold it, facing Xiuxiu, mercilessly stabbed down.
"Yang Yinglong!"
There was a ghostly scream from the Palace of Heavenly Kings, Chen Ling's eyes were bloodshot, and his whole body trembled like chaff: "Yang Yinglong, you are inhuman! You have no conscience, I, Chen Ling, will not let you go even if I am a ghost."
Yang Yinglong smiled and said: "You are just my dog as a human being, and as a ghost, will I be afraid of you?"
He took back the long sword from the dazed daughter's hand, slowly pointed at Chen Ling's second son, and asked with a smile: "Watching the whole family die in front of him, how does it feel? Don't worry, you must I will die worse than any of them, I promise!"
