"Master Fang!" Zhou Lang peeled off Fang Zilan's body and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was fine. Then he called two soldiers and said, "This righteous man died to save Master Fang. Let him be buried properly."
The soldiers carried the body of the man away, but Fang Zilan was still lying on the ground without moving. Zhou Lang reached out and pulled her to sit up, but seeing her eyes distracted, he asked blankly, "Where is the person?"
"What..." As soon as Zhou Lang opened his mouth, he saw her standing up suddenly and yelling at the crowd around her: "Whoever wants to kill me, stand up now and I will give you a chance. If you kill me, you can Live. If not, when I check everyone present one by one, none of you can escape."
After her words fell, everyone fell silent, and there was a dead silence.
"Very good, then let me check it myself." Fang Zilan said with a stern expression, "Everyone lines up in a line, three feet apart. I have checked one person, and you, Vice General Zhou, will register one person. If anyone disobeys, he will be punished on the spot. Kill without mercy."
Zhou Lang was frightened by her expression and was stunned for a while before he nodded and said yes.
Under Zhou Lang's arrangement, everyone quickly lined up as required. Fang Zilan walked past everyone, walking slowly but not touching anyone.
Zhou Lang was a little confused, but when he saw Fang Zilan walking in front of the nineteenth person, he suddenly took action, grabbed his throat fiercely, and pulled the person up from the ground.
"Tell me, who is your accomplice here?" Fang Zilan said in a cold voice, full of murderous intent, "Say it, and I will leave your body intact."
The man raised his arm with great effort, and his finger seemed to be pointing somewhere. Zhou Lang then looked over, but before he saw anything, he heard a cry of surprise. He quickly looked away, only to find that Fang Zilan had broken the man's neck and threw it to the ground.
"Don't overestimate your ability." Fang Zilan straightened his sleeves and ordered: "Drag him down, chop him into pieces and feed him to the dogs."
After she finished speaking, she walked towards the person in front of the deceased. He had already collapsed on the ground in fear, letting her look down at her, "What are you afraid of? Are you his accomplice?"
The head of the person sitting on the ground shook like a rattle, and Fang Zilan chuckled, "Don't be afraid, I know you are not."
Zhou Lang came over and carefully inspected the body of the deceased, and found a hidden weapon hidden between his fingers, as well as a dagger and poison hidden on his body. His heart tightened and he signaled the soldiers to drag the person down.
"Master Fang..." As soon as Zhou Langfu opened his mouth, a silver light flashed in front of his eyes, and then he heard a crisp and thin sound. He took a closer look and saw a hidden weapon falling at his feet, which was exactly the same as the one between the fingers of the deceased.
Fang Zilan heard the argument and quickly picked out the remaining four people. They cut off their hands and feet one by one, removed their jaws and threw them to the ground. "Vice General Zhou, take them back to the tent. I have something to ask. The rest of the people, for the time being. Stay where you are and don’t move without permission.”
After hearing this, Vice General Zhou summoned several soldiers and brought the four of them back to the tent. Vice General Cao, who was waiting in the tent, heard that Xi Zuo had been mixed up and was trying to assassinate Fang Zilan. He became so angry that he rushed forward and knocked out one of the people's teeth with a punch.
"Old Cao, stop." Fang Zilan came in, stood in front of the four people, leaned over and said: "Next, I will ask you questions. If no one answers, I will cut off your ears and give them to Mu Chuji. liquor."
The four of them fell to the ground and hesitated. Fang Zilan stood up and asked sternly: "Whose idea was it to massacre the city, kill the people in Beijing, force me to open the city gate, and order you to assassinate me? Murong Xun or Mu Chu." Ji?"
"Bah!" one of them spat, "You alone are worthy of mentioning our lord's name..."
Before he could finish his words, he screamed. Fang Zilan cut off his ear neatly, grabbed his hand, and broke off a finger, "I like strong bones like you, but it's a pity..."
She paused deliberately and kept moving her hands until all five fingers were broken, then she said leisurely: "This bone is still not strong enough. Why did it break as soon as I broke it?"
The person next to him saw his companion dripping with blood and was in agony. He trembled and said, "I said, it's His Highness King Qi..."
"Mu Chuji is a cruel little brat." Fang Zilan commented lightly, "He has come up with such a vicious plan, so what is Murong Xun doing? Is he retiring in the army?"
Another person jumped in and said, "King Zhongzheng is already on his way to Qiluo City. He should arrive in the next two days."
"It's good to be here." Fang Zilan's hanging heart finally relaxed. Now that she had confirmed that the Miluo people only had one army and no hidden troops to attack elsewhere, she could concentrate on defending Miluo City.
She calmed down and sat down on the main seat, "Okay, for the sake of your cooperation, I'll leave you with a whole body. Someone, drag them down and hang them on the tower, as well as the dog feeder." , if it can’t be chopped into pieces, hang them up together. If they are chopped into pieces, hang up their heads.”
After everyone was dragged out, Zhou Lang looked at Fang Zilan and asked: "Master Fang, what should I do with the people who were rescued into the city? I'm afraid there is no place in the city to accommodate them."
"While Qiluo City has not yet been surrounded by the Miluo people, you lead people to send them out of the city overnight from the north gate. Send out the people who don't want to stay in the city together." Fang Zilan slowed down his voice, with a hint of worry in his eyes. "If it takes another ten days and a half, once the Miluo people besiege the city, no one will be able to get out."
Zhou Lang's heart sank, "Master Fang, do you want to defend Miluo City?"
"Yes." Fang Zilan raised her hand and pressed her eyebrows gently, "As the Duke of Yue Kingdom in Dajing, I will not retreat even one step. If the Miluo people want to continue to invade Dajing, they will have to step over my body."
She said with a sigh, "But they are all ordinary people. All they want in life is to live a stable life. There is no need to stay here with me to die."
Zhou Lang nodded slightly, "I understand." He turned around and left, but was stopped by Fang Zilan, "Vice General Zhou, sending the people out of the city will definitely cause a certain amount of panic in the army."
Her expression became a little sharper, and she said solemnly every word: "There will never be any deserters in my army."
"Don't worry, Mr. Fang." Zhou Lang said with a firm expression: "We soldiers must charge into battle to protect the safety of our country and the people. Is there any reason to run away from the battle?"
"Okay." Fang Zilan breathed a long sigh of relief, and Zhou Lang walked out of the tent without stopping any longer.
After Fang Zilan watched Zhou Lang disappear, she suddenly coughed violently. Vice General Cao said anxiously: "I'm going to find Miss Awan right now."
However, before Vice General Cao could walk out of the tent, A Wan burst in with a furious voice, "Master Fang, I heard someone said you were injured..."
"It's okay, I can't die." Fang Zilan's lips curled up slightly, and Awan stamped her feet angrily when she saw the blood on her body, "With so much blood, you still say you're okay?"
Deputy General Cao touched the back of his head and couldn't help but said: "That girl Awan, the boss has someone else's blood..." After he finished speaking, without waiting for Awan's reaction, he greased his feet and slipped out of the tent.
"You heard it too..." Fang Zilan looked at Awan innocently, and she interrupted her rudely, "Injuries are also caused by others, right? Then I'll leave now."
A Wan was about to leave, but Fang Zilan shouted helplessly, "Come back."
