"Fart! There is no evidence, don't talk nonsense, or you may get your tongue cut off!" One of the three assassins raised his head and yelled viciously at Leng Qianqiu.
Leng Qianqiu was about to curse a few words when a mighty general hurried into the palace with two followers.
"General Tiger!" Leng Qianqiu seemed to attach great importance to this general and hurriedly greeted him.
The Tiger General that Leng Qianqiu refers to, whose full name is Hu Jingtian, is a veritable Tiger General who was personally trained and promoted by Long De. He followed Long De in the south and north, and made unparalleled military exploits. Together with Leng Qianqiu, he was both civil and military, and Leng Qianqiu had always relied on him as his right-hand man. [
But seeing that Hu Jingtian's chest was wrapped with a thick bandage, it was obvious that he had been assassinated by an assassin before, but he was lucky enough to survive. At present, Xifeng City is in turmoil, and Hu Jingtian doesn't care about recuperating. He is dressed in military uniform and is ready for a battle at any time.
Hu Jingtian glanced at the three assassins and said anxiously to Leng Qianqiu, "Military advisor, think of a solution quickly. The Hua family's million-strong army 'forces' us to open the city gate and let them in, otherwise we will The city is under attack. As usual, of course we are not afraid. But now, most of the generals at all levels in the army have been assassinated. The army has lost its leader and is in chaos. For a while, it is difficult to form a combat effectiveness. The situation It’s critical!”
Leng Qianqiu gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Hua Jiyuan's move was really cruel. First, he framed the prince and left Xifeng City leaderless. Then he sent a group of shameless assassins to assassinate people everywhere, leaving Xifeng City without a leader." At the same time, he ordered a million troops to "force" the city, and cooperate with the inside and outside. This is to eat up our Xifeng City and completely wipe out the foundation of our prince!"
It is true that Hu Jingtian is a tiger general, but in terms of strategy, he is far inferior to Leng Qianqiu. At this time, he had no idea at all, and kept urging: "Military advisor, what should we do? Otherwise, we have to fight them!"
Leng Qianqiu said with a bitter expression, "Absolutely not! In the current situation, if we fight hard, we will definitely lose. At the same time, it will also give others a reason to talk. After all, the Hua family is the ruler of Longyuan Kingdom now, and they will be able to have fuller control." With this excuse, we can be completely annihilated. Xifeng City is certainly the foundation of the prince, but our 800,000 cavalry are the prince’s lifeline!"
"This... this fight won't work, and it won't work without fighting. What should we do?" Hu Jingtian rubbed his hands anxiously.
Leng Qianqiu thought for a while and said, "Let's go to the tower!"
Leng Qianqiu had just taken a few steps when he suddenly remembered, turned back and pointed at the three assassins, and shouted in a deep voice, "Kill them!"
As soon as Leng Qianqiu said this, the three assassins all opened their eyes wide and shouted in unison, "Leng Qianqiu, how dare you!"
Leng Qianqiu smiled coldly, curled his lips and said, "You assassins, your hands are stained with the blood of our Xifeng City soldiers and people. You deserve to die!"
"I...we are under the orders of Mr. Hua, and we are members of the Hua family. How dare you touch us?" One of the killers could not withstand the threat of death and loudly revealed his identity.
Leng Qianqiu's smile became even colder, and he said in a conspiratorial tone, "Are you finally willing to admit it?"
The three assassins all lowered their heads. The three of them are assassins, but they are not dead soldiers. In order to survive, they have to worry about so much. They thought that after revealing their identity, Leng Qianqiu would be afraid to kill them, but what they never expected was that Leng Qianqiu would not accept this trick at all, with a cold snort and three cold lights. , the three assassins didn't even have a chance to react, and their heads moved.
Without looking at the bodies of the three assassins, Leng Qianqiu pulled Hu Jingtian and quickly ran up to the tower of Xifeng City.
Standing on the city tower and looking down, I saw that the millions of direct descendants of the Hua family were united in one place. They kept shouting loudly and hitting their shields with their swords, making a rhythmic roar. If it were other city-defending troops in Longyuan, this kind of momentum alone would frighten them out of fear. But Xifeng City is different. Years of continuous wars have long since trained the soldiers here to the point where they are not afraid of being favored or humiliated. At this time, the people standing on the tower, whether they were generals or soldiers, had no fear at all except for their worried expressions.
Even these minor concerns are due to the fact that many generals in the army have been assassinated, and the various levels of the army are disconnected from each other, so that orders from the top cannot be transmitted to the grassroots in time, and the soldiers at the grassroots have difficulty in coordinating, rectifying, and forming combat effectiveness.
The Hua family's army of one million direct descendants was formed by the gathering of three armies from different directions. After the army was formed, Hua Jiyuan selected Hua Shikui as the commander-in-chief among the three commanders.
This Hua Shikui is no ordinary person either. He is the son of Hua Jiyuan's brother and also Hua Jiyuan's nephew. At fifty years old this year, he is in his prime. His martial arts has reached the intermediate level of innateness, and he also possesses excellent military talents. He is the second rare talent in the Hua family after Hua Jiyuan.
When the Long family was in power, in order to curb the growth of the Hua family, the Long family adopted a policy of focusing on several important figures of the Hua family. Hua Jiyuan ranked first, and Huashi Kui Sect ranked second. [
But even so, Hua Shikui not only was not crushed by the Long family's high-pressure policies, but instead built an elite force for the Hua family in a difficult environment. It was precisely because of Hua Shikui's elite army that the Long family failed to surrender to the Hua family in the end, and was instead replaced by the Hua family.
Nowadays, the situation has changed drastically, and the Hua family has turned its back on guests. Kuizhi of the Hua Normal University can be described as feeling proud. He changed his previous low-key image and began to show his majesty.
At this time, Hua Shikui was wearing pure gold armor and riding a tall horse, standing proudly under the scorching sun. His whole body was shining with a scorching golden light that made people dare not look directly. It is no exaggeration to say that he was like the God of War reborn. This momentum alone made him... Enough to dominate the world.
Leng Qianqiu saw Hua Shikui at a glance and couldn't help but sigh, "Hua Shikui originally had talents that were not inferior to our prince, but he couldn't show them because he was suppressed at all levels. Now, he has All the imprisonments on his body have been removed, and Hua Shikui is afraid that he will become famous all over the world from now on."
When Hu Jingtian heard this, he snorted and said, "I have also heard of his name. He has some abilities. However, compared to our prince, he is far behind!"
Leng Qianqiu nodded, stood on the city tower, and shouted to Hua Shikui, "General Hua, your army of one million people did not attack Feitian Kingdom, but instead besieged Xifeng City and attacked your own people. But why?"
Hua Shikui raised his spear in his hand, pointed at Leng Qianqiu, and shouted loudly, "Leng Qianqiu, you have the nerve to say that you are one of our own. I have a million troops stationed here, sleeping in the open air, and I want you to open the city gate at this time." , you asked me to go to the city to rest, but you refused, is this what you should do?"
Leng Qianqiu said, "Xifeng City is a small city. We really can't receive millions of troops at once. Please forgive me, General Hua. However, if General Hua really wants to come to the city to rest, I have a way. General, you can What do you think of dividing the army into ten groups and taking turns entering the city to rest and recuperate?"
"What the hell are you talking about? You want to defeat me one by one and cannibalize me in batches. Do you think this general is stupid? Leng Qianqiu, listen to me. I am stationed in Xifeng City on the orders of His Majesty the Emperor. Do you dare to disobey orders?"
"Hey!" After hearing Hua Shikui's words, Leng Qianqiu couldn't help but sigh, with helplessness written on his face.
"Military advisor, Hua Shikui is too bullying. Let's ignore him! If he wants to attack the city, let him come. As long as I, Hu Jingtian, am here, he may not be able to attack!" Hu Jingtian said angrily.
"No! Again, we have to keep these 800,000 cavalry for the prince." Leng Qianqiu said firmly.
"Then... is it possible to open the city gate and dedicate Xifeng City's hands to him?"
"Open! Open the city gate and let them in!" Leng Qianqiu gritted his teeth and said.
Hu Jingtian thought he had heard wrongly and looked at Leng Qianqiu with a look of disbelief on his face. He was speechless for a long time.
Leng Qianqiu gave a bitter smile, patted Hu Jingtian on the shoulder, and said, "The only thing we can do now is to endure. Endure until the prince comes back, and endure until we find Qin Dong!"
Hu Jingtian frowned and asked, "The prince thinks so too, so he is willing to be humiliated and return to Beijing Beicheng with Hua Jiyuan and the others?"
Leng Qianqiu nodded heavily and said, "General Tiger, now that the prince is gone, only the two of us are left in Xifeng City to support him. But I will lead a few guards to escape from Xifeng City in a while and go find him." Qin Dong’s whereabouts means that you will be the only one left in Xifeng City.”
Hu Jingtian took a long breath and said loudly, "If the military advisor has any orders, just say them!"
Hu Jingtian is full of loyalty and courage, and Leng Qianqiu knows it very well. He nodded and said, "After I leave, you open the city gate and let the Hua family's troops enter the city. However, you have to warn the soldiers and people to be patient and not to have any conflicts with the Hua family's troops." Especially General Tiger, you must endure it again and again. No matter what request they make, you must agree. As long as you save your life and don't give them a chance to kill you, that is the greatest victory!"
Hu Jingtian turned his head and glanced at Hua Shikui, who was showing off his power at the bottom of the tower, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I'll pretend to be a grandson with them!"
Leng Qianqiu hummed and said, "General Tiger, listen to me. As long as you endure until I find Qin Dong, I can guarantee you that all the humiliation you have suffered today will be compensated tenfold and a hundredfold in the future!" [
Hu Jingtian said, "Commander, don't worry about me. At most, I can only tolerate some insults. But once they know that you are looking for Qin Dong, they will definitely try their best to intercept, hunt and kill you, all the time." You are risking your life, so be careful!"
Leng Qianqiu smiled slightly and said, "General Tiger, don't look at my inability to restrain a chicken. It's not that easy for the Hua family to kill me! Hahaha..." It's rare that a civil servant like Leng Qianqiu is facing a life and death situation at this time. Even in this situation, he could still show such lofty sentiments and ambitions, which made Hu Jingtian admire him more and more, but at the same time, he felt sour and uncomfortable in his heart...
