An Bing's heart moved, and he felt that his niece's words were reasonable. Now that the situation was like this, there was no need to be too impatient.
An Qian saw An Bing's look in her eyes and knew that her words had an effect. She couldn't help but make up her mind and said: "If the imperial court really wipes out the rebellion, it won't be too late for us to seize the sword pavilion. On the contrary, if we bet too much, "Early on, the situation on the battlefield actually changed. At that time, I offended the Liao Kingdom. I'm afraid it will be too late to regret it!" An Bing nodded, "What you said makes sense." He glanced at An Qian, "Then What do you think we should do? Should we wait until the battlefield in the east is over before taking action?" An Qian said: "Don't wait until the dust has settled, just wait until everything is a foregone conclusion and there is no possibility of change, and then decide how to act! "
An Bing frowned and said, "Isn't this situation a foregone conclusion?"
An Qian also felt that this was indeed the case, but now she just wanted to delay time, so she said in a hurry: "The Cao brothers are famous, but Ding Wei is just a loser who deceives the world and steals his reputation! Although the strength of the two sides is very different, if we say that the Cao brothers are defeated It's really strange that it happened so fast, maybe, maybe..."
An Bing frowned and said: "You mean, maybe the Cao brothers used a strategy to lure the enemy deep into the city! I'm afraid that's not the case. Even Yicheng has been lost, how can it be possible to lure the enemy deep into the city? I think the overall situation has been decided!" Seeing what her uncle said, An Qian felt anxious and said hurriedly: "What my uncle said is absolutely true! My uncle's knowledge is naturally much higher than that of my niece! However, after all, the imperial army has not yet launched an attack on Xiangyang. What will be the outcome? There may be changes. It's possible, uncle, why should I be anxious for a while? Why don't we take a look again!" An Bing hesitated, and An Qian looked at him eagerly, feeling very anxious in her heart.
An Bing nodded, "What you said makes sense, let's take another look!" An Qian breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. An Bing said to An Qian: "Although this matter has been put on hold for the time being, it does not mean giving up. You have to make some preparations in advance to avoid being caught off guard when things happen!" An Qian quickly agreed.
An Qian came out of the study and met An Yuan, who was running towards her excitedly. She frowned slightly, then a smile appeared on her face. An Yuan rushed to An Qian and said with great joy: "I heard that my cousin is here. Brother Yu dropped everything and came to see her!"
An Qian was a little impatient in her heart and said with a forced smile: "Brother, don't delay your serious business for the sake of my little sister. Don't worry about my little sister, just go about your own business!" An Yuan said sincerely: "My cousin is here. Brother Yu is here. You have to put down the big things!" An Qian laughed twice, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "How did you go about the things I asked you to do?"
An Yuan hurriedly said: "I was about to tell my cousin about this matter. The matter has just been settled." An Qian was overjoyed. Then she thought that when she came just now, she passed by the Luo Family Chamber of Commerce and saw nothing strange. She couldn't help but become suspicious, "You Are you lying to me? I just passed by the Luo Family Chamber of Commerce and didn’t see anything strange?"
An Yuan said quickly: "That's it. I didn't alert my father, but asked Brother Qingshuipao's boss to do this."
An Qian suddenly realized and murmured: "It's better not to alert uncle." An Yuan nodded in agreement and said: "Brother Yu thought so too, so he went to find Boss Tu!" An Qian nodded and asked : "Where is she being held now?" An Yuan said, "She is being held in Qingshuipu outside the city!" The so-called Qingshuipu is a picturesque town near the river just a dozen miles away from Chengdu. It is the headquarters of Brother Qingshui Pao. The location of the rudder.
An Qian was a little worried and asked: "Will Mr. Tu tell uncle about this?" An Yuan said: "Don't worry, cousin, I have already explained it. This matter is not a big deal. He will not tell his father." Yes! Cousin, how should we deal with these people?"
An Qian thought of the intimate relationship between Luo Yanran and Yang Peng, and she couldn't help but feel jealous and wanted to kill her. However, when I thought about it, I was worried that if my eldest brother found out about this matter, I might not be able to explain it to myself. For a moment, two emotions clashed in my chest, and I couldn't make up my mind. An Yuan couldn't help but feel strange when he saw his cousin's face full of hatred, and then worried and hesitant, and couldn't help but ask: "Cousin, what's bothering you?"
An Qian came back to her senses in shock and said angrily: "What trouble can I have?" An Yuan said oh and didn't dare to ask anymore, so as not to make his cousin angry. An Qian warned: "Go and tell Boss Tu to treat them well and don't offend them!" An Yuan responded, and then said with a hopeful look on his face: "Cousin, Brother Yu has already taken care of what you told us. Marriage..." An Qian was disgusted in her heart, but she said with a smile on her face: "My little sister has not forgotten it! We can talk about this matter in detail after the current major matters are settled!"
An Yuan was greatly disappointed and said anxiously, "What else is important now?"
An Qian sighed, "Just now, uncle explained some things and said it was very important and asked me to do it wholeheartedly! Therefore, the things between us can only be postponed for the time being!" An Yuan heard that his father had explained the things. , extremely depressed, couldn't help but mutter: "It's true, father, he always tells you to do things!" An Qian smiled and said: "This is because uncle trusts me, you should be happy!" An Yuan understood An Qian's Meaning, very happy, nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, yes!"
An Qian said softly: "Okay, you go and do the things I asked you to do, and I'm going to do the things my uncle asked me to do!"
An Yuan responded and prepared to leave. Suddenly remembering something, she stopped and asked suspiciously: "I heard that you let some men live in your mansion. What is going on?" An Qian rolled her eyes at An Yuan and said angrily: "Are you jealous?" An Yuan saw her slightly angry look, and his eyes were in a state of intoxication. An Qian said: "They are the secret envoys of the Liao Kingdom. I placed them with me for confidentiality reasons!" An Yuan showed a look of sudden realization, and the doubts in his heart disappeared immediately. An Qian said angrily: "You actually don't trust me at all, I'm so disappointed!"
An Yuan was shocked and hurriedly came to apologize. Even though the son of Lord Xuanfu was very knowledgeable and talented, he was very talented in reciting poems and composing poems, but he looked clumsy at the moment. An Qian felt contempt in her heart, but softened her expression and said: "Since you like me, you must believe me, otherwise what's the point of marrying you?" An Yuan blamed himself again and again, looking like he was heartbroken and regretful, and then he said He kept swearing, and all the gods and Buddhas in the sky were moved out by him.
An Qian was too lazy to hang around with him and said, "I'm leaving." An Yuan showed a look of reluctance, but An Qian turned around and left without any regret. An Yuan stared at An Qian's back in a daze for a while, then thought of what An Qian had told him, and hurried away.
When An Qian returned to the door of her house, she saw Chen Xiao leaving with a large group of people. She couldn't help being shocked, and hurried forward and asked: "Brother, where are you going? You're going back, right?" ?”
Yang Peng smiled and said: "We have something to do, and we will be back tomorrow." An Qian felt relieved when she heard this, and then said: "Brother, I will go with you!" Yang Peng said: "This is a little inappropriate, you just Stay at home!" There was an irresistible majesty in the plain words, and Anxi subconsciously did not dare to say anything more.
Yang Peng galloped forward, followed closely by his hundreds of secret guards. An Qian looked at Yang Peng's back and murmured in her heart: "He is Yan Yun, a powerful general. I'm afraid he will do something when he leaves." 'When I thought about this, I couldn't help but feel worried.
Yang Peng led hundreds of close guards under him and rushed out of the North City Gate. It was already dusk, and the mountains in the distance reflected a golden halo. Pedestrians and business travelers who were about to enter the city stepped up their pace. They had to hurry up. Enter the city before the city gate closes; farmers who have been busy for a day are driving their cattle and plows back home. Smoke from cooking is curling up in the village, and the barking of dogs is mixed with the anxious call of their mother.
Yang Peng and his party went straight north. Half an hour later, when it was completely dark, they entered a dark forest. A large group of black shadows came up to Yang Peng and others. Although Yang Peng couldn't see the appearance of the person in front of him, he knew she was Yan Ji based on her tall and graceful silhouette.
Sure enough, Yan Ji's voice came: "Master, I was ordered to bring all the people from Huaxu." "Very good, how many people are there?" "We were in a hurry, and only about 500 people came." Yang Peng nodded. Said: "That's enough! Yan Ji, come here!" After saying that, he walked towards the camphor tree on one side, and Yan Ji followed. Yang Peng took out a simple blueprint from his arms. The secret guard next to him had already lit a fire stick, and the lights were shining, just enough to illuminate the blueprint. What was drawn on the drawing seemed to be an overhead view of a town. Although the drawing was very simple, all the key points had been shown.
Yang Peng pointed to the woods and official roads around the town and said: "Huaxu's people are lying in ambush around the town to prevent anyone from escaping to ask for help. I will personally carry out the raid on Zhendian. That's the plan, understand. Are you ready?" Yan Ji nodded. Yang Peng turned to look at Huaxu's people and asked, "Don't they know my identity?" Yan Ji shook her head and said, "I don't know." "Well, just tell them that I am a Yanyun warrior." That's it." "Yes." "Okay, take action immediately, and the battle must be resolved before dawn!" "Yes!"
Yang Peng returned to his horse, got on his horse, and led his men to hide and gallop towards the east. Yan Ji led Hua Xu and others closely behind. An hour later, the group of people climbed a hill and saw a small town appearing in front of them, with lights dotted and green mountains and green waters. It was a very beautiful place.
Patrols can be faintly seen around the town, and there are many sentries scattered in the town. A small town, Dian, is so heavily guarded.
Yang Peng said to the captain of the secret guard team beside him: "Send someone to investigate." The team leader agreed and ran down, and then he saw six black figures leaving the hillside and quickly approaching the town. About half an hour later, the six people sent to investigate came back and marked the positions of patrols and sentries on the overhead view in front of Yang Peng. Yang Peng immediately divided one hundred secret guards into twenty teams and carefully assigned tasks. Then the twenty teams of secret guards left the hillside and disappeared into the night.
Everyone in Huaxu was watching, and the people in the world who had just defected to Huaxu were very curious. One of the middle-aged people asked Yan Ji in a low voice: "Miss, what is Mr. Yang doing?" Yan Ji said: "Wait a minute. You will know, no need to ask any more questions, just do as you are told!" The middle-aged man promised and glanced towards Zhendian at the foot of the mountain, with a look of curiosity and questioning in his eyes. Although he did not know who Yang was yet. Although he knew the specific identity of the young master, he knew that Mr. Yang and his subordinates must be Yanyun elites. He wanted to see what the legendary Yanyun elites were capable of? Maybe they can't do anything, and they have to let their own gang clean up the situation! At that time, my group will show their faces, and King Yan may give him a big reward! Thinking of his success, the middle-aged man couldn't help but smile.
Of the more than 500 Huaxu warriors gathered by Yan Ji, except for 200 brought by Yan Ji from Tianjing New City, the rest are all Sichuan gangs recruited before. The middle-aged man who asked Yan Ji just now is Sichuan The leader of the Qingcheng Village is named Tong Lei. He has a strong physique and a powerful appearance. The one hundred and ten people he brought with him are all highly skilled in martial arts. This Qingcheng Village is the strongest among the Jianghu gangs recruited by Yan Ji. One.
Everyone saw that soon after the one hundred people went down, Mr. Yang led the remaining two hundred people to follow. Yan Ji said to the leaders, "According to my instructions just now, you all take action immediately." The leaders clasped their fists in agreement and led their men down respectively. After a while, they ambush in various passages and commanding heights. Tong Lei led his men to ambush beside the official road in the west. The terrain here is higher and the scene in the town can be clearly seen. Tong Lei looked towards Zhendian, wanting to see how Yanyun's elite raided Zhendian.
After waiting for a while, I finally saw movement. I only saw a few dark shadows flashing under the dim light in the distance. When I came to my senses, I found that the few court sentries under the light were missing. Tong Lei was greatly surprised, and then he found that the sentries and patrols were touched by the shadows one after another. Each time, the shadows flashed for a few times, and the sentries or patrols disappeared. In just a moment, the shadows that were originally densely covered inside and outside Zhendian disappeared. The sentries and patrols of the imperial court disappeared, and from beginning to end, the officers and soldiers of the imperial court did not even issue a warning! Tong Lei was horrified and felt unbelievable. At the same time, he felt that those Yanyun elites were like ghosts. They actually touched off many officers and soldiers of the imperial court so silently. It was as if nothing had happened at this moment. generally.
Tong Lei originally had a desire to compete, but now his desire to compete has turned into fear. He just feels that Yan Yunjun is really well-deserved. No wonder it is rumored that Yan Yun is the master of tigers and wolves, the best in the world, and his military skills are outstanding. Here, unstoppable! Although I don’t know anything else, but just for this sneak attack ability, I’m afraid no one in the world can compare with him! Tong Lei couldn't help but feel extremely lucky. He felt that joining Yan Yun was the wisest decision in his life. His loyalty to Yan Yun unknowingly increased a little bit more.
At this time, Tong Lei saw that Young Master Yang personally led the brigade into Zhendian. A moment later, the sound of killing suddenly broke out in the town. The clash of weapons and the screams were intertwined, which seemed particularly thrilling under the night! Tong Lei couldn't help but become nervous. However, the killing sound in Zhendian only lasted for a cup of tea and then fell silent. Tong Lei was surprised and thought to himself: Is this the end? This is impossible, right? There are at least three to four hundred officers and soldiers in Zhendian!
Soon after, they received an order to enter Zhendian immediately to carry money, food and materials. Tong Lei was so surprised that he quickly asked the man who came to deliver the order: "Brother, is the battle in Zhendian over?" "Yes." Then he turned around and left. Tong Lei was stunned for a moment, came to his senses, and quickly led his brothers into Zhendian. Then under the guidance of Yin Sha, he ran towards the place where the money and food were piled. Along the way, he saw only the corpses of officers and soldiers scattered everywhere, but there was not a single corpse of Yan Yun's elite! Tong Lei was horrified and couldn't help but swallow his saliva. His awe for Yan Yun and King Yan couldn't help but reach its peak!
More than five hundred of Huaxu's men came to the place where money and grain were piled. They saw a mule cart and an ox cart filled with money and grain parked quietly in a square. The cows were mooing and the mules were also braying uneasily. This was the first time that Tong Lei saw so much money and food, and he couldn't help being a little dumbfounded.
Yan Ji raised her voice and said: "Drive the ox cart and mule cart away from here immediately." Everyone agreed and immediately went to drive the ox cart and mule cart.
Yang Peng led the hidden force and rode horses to guard the huge convoy, left Zhendian and headed northwest. An hour later, I came to the river, and then walked north along the river. After walking for more than an hour, a town appeared in front of me, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a picturesque night view.
Yan Ji said: "We're here, there's Qingshui Shop in front of us!"
Yang Peng smiled slightly and said to Yan Ji: "pass the order, no one is allowed to speak!" Yan Ji promised and ordered his subordinates to pass on Yang Peng's order. Tong Lei drove a carriage and saw that he had arrived at Brother Qingshui Pao's territory. He was very surprised and thought to himself: "Is Mr. Yang going to attack Brother Qingshui Pao?" ' There was a hint of schadenfreude in his heart. In the past, his village was suppressed by Brother Qingshui Pao. Although he could not be said to be bullied, he was also scorned. Now that he sees that Brother Qingshui Pao is going to be unlucky, he is naturally happy.
The group of people came to the archway at Zhendiankou, and a dozen big men with green scarves on their heads and weapons in hand suddenly appeared from the darkness on the left and right sides. The person in front of them shouted sharply: "Stop! Who are you?" At the same time, There was a loud sound of footsteps in the town, and a middle-aged man with a curly beard, a mighty and arrogant face, holding a big ax and leading hundreds of men came rushing over.
The group of people stopped, and Yang Peng rode up to the front. The big man led hundreds of people out of Zhendian, forming a confrontation with Yang Peng and the others. The big man stepped forward and slammed the big ax on the ground. There was a loud bang, and Tong Lei and others were all frightened. Yang Peng smiled and said: "You are Tu Lou, right?" The big man raised his chin and said loudly: "Yes! I am Tu Lou! Which road are you from? What do you want to do in my territory late at night?"
Yang Peng said: "Boss Tu, don't be nervous, we are here to give gifts, not to cause trouble!"
Tulou was stunned and looked at the many oxcarts and mule carts that the other party had brought. He couldn't help but believe a little, his expression softened a little, and he cupped his fists and said, "What do you call me brother? Why do you want to give me a gift?" Yang Peng said with a smile. : "You will naturally know later." Then he waved his right hand. Tong Lei and others immediately drove up the ox cart and mule cart, jumped off the carriage and retreated behind Yang Peng. Tong Lei was very confused and didn't understand why Mr. Yang gave so much money and food to Tulou?
Tu Louchong said to a leader next to him: "Go and have a look." The leader responded and immediately called over twenty brothers to check. Immediately, the leader rushed back with great excitement and reported: "Brother, it's all grain, and there are whole boxes of gold and silver ingots!"
Tu Lou was greatly surprised. He glanced at Yang Peng, clasped his fists and asked, "Who are you, brother? I will not accept property from unknown sources!"
Yang Peng said with a smile: "Don't worry, Boss Tu. These are given to Boss Tu by the Xuanfu Ambassador to commend Boss Tu Qingshuipao and the brothers for their hard work over the years!" Tu Lou and others heard that it was given by the Xuanfu Ambassador. Everyone was relieved when it came, and then everyone became excited. Anyone who was hit hard by such a big pie falling from the sky would naturally be extremely happy!
Tulou cupped his fists and bowed, "Thank you so much, Lord Xuanfu!"
Yang Peng said: "Okay, I've finished my business. Let's say goodbye." Tu Lou said quickly: "Brother, don't be busy, please come to Zhendian for a drink!" Yang Peng said with a smile: "Thank you, Boss Tu, but I still have to rush. Go back and resume your duties, we can’t delay any longer, take your leave!” He bowed his hands towards the slaughterhouse. When Tulou saw what the other party said, he no longer stayed with him. He cupped his fists and said, "Good go, brother!" Yang Peng smiled slightly, turned his horse's head, and led his men away.
One of the leaders couldn't help but said excitedly: "I didn't expect Lord Xuanfu to be so generous!" Tulou snorted and said: "It's not easy to get money and food from Lord Xuanfu. He must have a very difficult task. Let us do it!" He turned around and ordered: "Transport the money and grain to Zhendian immediately, and count them to see how much there is!" The leader responded and immediately called everyone to come up and drive the car.
An officer covered in blood stumbled to the city gate and shouted: "Open the city gate quickly!" The captain of the city gate looked around and saw only the outline of a person, but could not see his face clearly, and said angrily He shouted: "We have to go into the city and wait for tomorrow! What kind of city are we entering in the middle of the night!" The officer shouted: "I am General Li, who was sent by the governor to deliver food to the east. Something big has happened. Open the city gate quickly!"
The captain of the city gate was also the governor. When he heard this, he was surprised, "Are you General Li Pian?" "That's right! Open the city gate quickly!" The captain of the city gate recognized General Li Pian. The voice immediately ordered the city gate to be opened. The city gate opened, and the captain of the city gate led a few people to run out. Seeing General Li Pian's wretched appearance covered in blood, they all turned pale with fright. The captain of the city gate asked urgently: "General Li Pian, what are you doing? Already?"
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
