This summer and others took the time to go back, Yang Yue had already settled the others and was waiting for them in the other courtyard.

"Empty city plan!" Yang Yue was also taken aback when he heard this plan, "This is not a storyteller, she is not Zhuge Liang, and the Japanese pirates are not Sima Yi."

"I can only do this. The Japanese pirates are already twenty miles away. I guess they should arrive before dawn. These old and weak women and children in the city, where do you let them escape?"

This summer, I took out the previously boiled wine balls without any waste, put them in four bowls, and distributed them to them.

"You can still eat?" Xie Xiao said so, but still took it.

"Brother, this is the last meal." This summer urged him to eat quickly, and pushed another bowl to Cen Shou.

Hearing this, Cen Shou was stunned for a moment, and realized with hindsight that he was right this summer. If the Japanese pirates saw through Mrs. Qi's empty city plan and attacked the city directly, the defense situation in the city would not even be able to last until dawn, then...

"Miss Yuan, you will find Miss Chunyu later and take good care of her." Cen Shou said solemnly, "In Hangzhou City, the eldest son specially instructed me to take care of the two of you."

Hearing what he meant, this summer looked up at him without saying a word.

Yang Yue also replied: "This summer, the situation is not as good as it used to be. It's not a petty fight like catching a thief. After all, you are a girl's family. I'll take you to Chunyu's cellar later..."

This summer frowned and interrupted him: "Dayang, how can you even say such things, I don't like to hear anything, after all, it's a girl's family. Look who is standing on the city wall now? It's Mrs. Qi!"

"Mrs. Qi is the daughter of the chief soldier. As the saying goes, a tiger father has no dog daughter. Don't compare yourself to others." Yang Yue said, "If you have something to do, how can I explain it to my father."

"The current situation is extraordinary, even if the boss is here, he won't stop me. If I'm as helpless as Miss Chunyu, I won't cause you any trouble, but since I have some skills, Another person in the middle, how can you ask me to be a turtle with a shriveled head on this head."

After speaking, she ate the pure wine and brewed balls in two mouthfuls, threw the bowl away angrily, and walked straight away.

Xie Xiao tutted: "This girl is quite temperamental!"

Yang Yue shook his head and sighed: "What's the use of a great temper, you have to be great."

After Cen Shou finished eating his bowl, he said without changing his face: "Fortunately, she is not very capable. When the Japanese pirates attacked the city, they knocked her unconscious and carried her back."

Unexpectedly, these words came out of his mouth, Xie Xiao glanced at him: "Did you carry her back?"

"I knocked her unconscious, you carry it."

**************************************************** ****************

In the middle of the night, the city wall of Xinhe City was already crowded with people, dozens of torches were blazing brightly, and the flames reflected on the back of the knife, on the torch, and on the faces that were tensed up. superior.

Except for the gasping sound and the intense sound of the torches burning, no other sound could be heard. Everyone's eyes were looking into the dark night in front of the city, hoping to burn the night away with their eyes to see the whereabouts of the Japanese pirates.

This summer, holding a bow and arrow, sitting with her back against the city wall, closing her eyes and resting, her mind was running wildly, and all the possibilities after the Japanese pirates approached the city were staged in her mind...

The best situation is naturally that the reinforcements arrive before the Japanese pirates attack, then everyone is happy and can go home and sleep. The worst situation is that the Japanese pirates are not fooled by the empty city plan and attack the city strongly, then there is no need to think about it any more, and there is only one road left to fight to the death. In the end, there was still one situation left—the Japanese pirates were temporarily fooled by the empty city strategy, but they didn't believe that there were so many defenders in the city, and they stayed outside the city to find flaws in the Ming army.

Flaws, flaws... This summer, I suddenly thought of Qingpo River, jumped up with a bow and arrow, and quickly rushed down the steps to find Mrs. Qi.

Mrs. Qi was ordering people to carry all the firearms and ammunition on the city wall, in case the Japanese pirates attacked the city and used firearms to deter them.

"Madam, Qingbohe..." This summer, he held her back and hurriedly said, "There are many Japanese pirates who are good at water, and they will definitely send someone to sneak into the city from Qingbohe to find out the details of the Ming army."

Mrs. Qi nodded and said, "I already expected that two heavy gates had been opened at the entrance of the Qingbo River, and personal soldiers were sent to guard it."

Jin Xia hurriedly explained: "Ma'am, you don't understand what I mean. If they send someone to find out the details of the army, we can just take the plan and make him mistakenly think that there are a large number of defenders in the city."

"..." Mrs. Qi was stunned, "How can I take care of it?"

This summer, it was attached to her ear, and she said it like this.

**************************************************** ********************

On the dimly lit street, people come and go.

It seems to be the Shangyuan Lantern Festival. The shops on both sides are decorated with lanterns and lanterns of various colors are hung.

Lu Yi stood in the middle of the street and looked around until he saw a little girl in the crowd. She stood there, smiled sweetly at him, then turned and walked forward.

He couldn't help but follow her forward, watching her jumping and jumping, as light as a swallow.

The little girl walked to the door of a big family, climbed up on the stone lion in front of the door with both hands and feet, and vigorously fiddled with the stone beads in the stone lion's mouth...

He slowly raised his head and looked at the plaque on the mansion, and the word "Xia" came into his eyes.

Lu Yi suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from his dream panting.

"you're awake."

Lan Daoxing leaned over, squinted at him, and muttered to himself, "Why do you look a little stupid? Did your head explode? ... Who am I, do you recognize me?" The last sentence was asking Lu Yi.

Lu Yi ignored him, barely trying to stand up, and Lan Daoxing hurriedly helped him sit up.

"I was shot in the arm, fortunately I didn't hurt my bones. When you fainted, I already took out all the shrapnel for you." Lan Daoxing said lightly, and he didn't forget to ask at the end, "...Do you still recognize me? ?"

Lu Yi still didn't answer, and only asked, "How is the battle in Cen Gang?"

"Cen Gang—" Lan Daoxing smiled slightly, "Victory!"

Lu Yidun breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Where's Mao Haifeng?"

"He and some Japanese pirates broke through and fled to Kemeiling. There is indeed a secret passage above Cengang leading to the outside. General Yu has sent troops to pursue them. I was so frightened that I couldn't find you at first, and then I guessed that you were buried in the pile of stones in the arsenal. General Yu took someone to dig the pile of stones..."

While talking, Yu Dayou strode into the room, saw Lu Yi woke up, and suddenly heaved a sigh of relief: "You finally woke up, it's been a day and a night, it's good to wake up, it's good to wake up... That's right, Are you okay with your brain?"

"I'm fine, brother, don't worry." Lu Yi said.

After hearing him speak clearly, Yu Dayou said with confidence: "That's good, sigh... This time it was a surprise, but this time you almost spared your life in order to blow up the arsenal. This kind of kindness, brother, I will keep it in my heart. "

"If my brother treats me as a brother, don't say anything like that." Lu Yi smiled, "Thanks to the silver silk armor this time, otherwise, even if I avoid Shimen, I may not be able to retreat."

At that time, the situation was urgent. Lu Yi observed that in the arsenal, boxes of gunpowder and ammunition were stacked on the left, while firearms such as big guns and fire guns were stacked on the right. So he blasted the piles of gunpowder boxes on the left with a big gun, and people avoided behind the stone gate on the right. The stone gate was five or six inches thick and was the best barrier. In addition, the silver silk wool armor on his body blocked the flying shrapnel and debris, so although he was knocked out by the sound, he was not seriously injured.

Wang Chonggu hurried into the room and saw that Lu Yi was awake, his face full of joy: "Master Lu, you are awake!"

Lu Yi nodded with a smile: "I'm worried about you."

"The general hasn't eaten much this day. Now that Master Lu is awake, you should rest assured. You should eat something." Wang Chonggu said to Yu Dayou, "By the way, there is also the battle of Cen Gang. Good news, the general should hurry up and write the book, and it is serious to have it sent to the capital quickly, but if you delay it for a while, you don’t know what will happen.”

Yu Dayou knew that what Wang Chonggu said was reasonable, and that the good news must be sent to the capital quickly, and frowned: "I just ran away from Mao Haifeng, I'm afraid that the sage will not have any good words."

Wang Chonggu sighed and said, "Anyway, it was captured. Although Mao Haifeng escaped, he was just a bereaved dog, and it was not a problem."

Lu Yi took the water handed over by Lan Daoxing, took a few sips, thought of something, and then said, "Brother, don't mention me as a meritorious person for the great victory of Cen Gang."

Yu Dayou puzzled and said, "How can this be done? If you hadn't led someone to sneak into Cen Harbor this time, and risked your life to blow up the arsenal, how could I have won Cen Harbor? You should be the first in this battle. ."

"Brother's words are bad, this battle is won, one is that Mao Haifeng is exhausted, and the other is that my brother is both brave and brave, what is my contribution." Lu Yi said with a smile.

"Brother you..."

"Brother, listen to me, I have my reasons for this matter, but it is inconvenient to go into details at this time. Maybe in the future, after all the dust settles, I will have the opportunity to tell my brother in detail." Lu Yi said.

Yu Dayou knew that Jin Yiwei's identity was delicate, and since he said so, he no longer insisted: "Then I will listen to my brother once."

Wang Chonggu was about to go out, but suddenly remembered something and said to Yu Dayou: "By the way, General, there was a military report earlier, saying that the Japanese pirates who had gathered in Taizhou had to turn around and rush towards Xinhe City for some reason, killing them. General Qi was caught off guard, and I don't know if General Qi will be able to return to the defense in time."

"Xinhe City!" Lu Yi suddenly stepped forward and asked anxiously, "You just said that the Japanese pirates are heading towards Xinhe City?"

Wang Chonggu wondered why he was so anxious, nodded and said, "Yes, the military report that was sent said so."

"What's going on?" Yu Dayou asked.

"Originally, the Japanese pirates have been gathering towards Ninghai, but the momentum seems to be preparing to capture Taizhou. General Qi had already mobilized his army to go to Ninghai a few days ago. There are only old and weak women and children left in Xinhe City, which is equivalent to an empty city. River City." Wang Chonggu shook his head and said, "These Japanese pirates are too cunning."

When he spoke, Lu Yi had already struggled to the ground, and because his body was still weak, he almost fell, and Lan Daoxing hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Yu Dayou asked in surprise.

"Brother, please prepare a fast horse for me! I'm going to New River City right away." Lu Yi pulled off his robe and put it on, frowning because of the wound on his left arm.

Yu Dayou instinctively refused: "No, how can you ride a horse like this, you have to fall down. Do you have someone important in Xinhe City? I'll send someone to go for you."

Lu Yi shook his head and said, "No, I'm not at ease, I have to go by myself!" While speaking, he had already stood up, although his body was shaking a little, but his tone was very persistent.

"Master Lu, there are many family members of the Qi family's army in Xinhe City. Even if the Qi family's army is not eating or sleeping, they will rush back to defense, and will not let the Japanese invaders capture Xinhe City." Wang Chonggu also helped to persuade, "Besides, if you go back alone, it won't be of any use."

He knew that Wang Chonggu was right, but Lu Yi was still worried, shook his head and said, "No matter what, I have to go to Xinhe City. Staying here, I can never feel at ease."

"You..." Yu Dayou looked at his expression and suddenly realized, "Is there someone in Xinhe City who is related to that stone?"

Lu Yi smiled reluctantly, without saying anything, it was a default.

"Oh, brother! You are really..." Yu Dayou couldn't think of a good word to describe him for a long time, he could only sigh: "Brother, I have convinced you."

Lan Daoxing said: "I'll go with you. I'm half a doctor, so I can take care of you on the road."

"Are you really going?" Yu Dayou still felt inappropriate, "Wait a little longer, maybe there is news."

Lu Yi shook his head and bowed to Yu Dayou: "I'm sorry, brother, lend me two fast horses!"

"You haven't recovered from your injury, you can't walk steadily, how can you get to Xinhe City? Oh!" Yu Dayou couldn't resist him, so he had to order the horse to go, and then walked towards Lan Dao, "I see if he can mount Duxuan on horseback. , you have to be optimistic."

Lan Daoxing said with a smile: "Don't worry, General, if he can't sit still, I'll tie him to his head, wouldn't it be inconvenient."

Yu Dayou applauded this.

Everything was ready and put in the saddlebag along with the dry food for the road, so that they could have a bite on the road too. Lu Yi got on his horse, used his uninjured arm to rein, and said goodbye to Yu Dayou and Wang Chonggu, and then left with Lan Daoxing.

The night was dark, and the two of them galloped on the official road, rolling up a little smoke.

Yu Dayou stood on top of Cen Gang, looked at the figure disappearing into the night, and sighed lightly.
