It had been raining for several days, and it finally cleared up.
Most of the water in the city has been drained, and only the lower half of the city wall is still covered in large areas of wet blackness.
On the city wall, Li Xuan was wearing a black robe with gold silk, and walked calmly. Every soldier next to him bowed to him, and he returned the salute gently.
In Meiling Pass today, almost every soldier has military merit.
All this comes from Li Xuan's careful planning and steady command.
The soldiers on the battlefield are all honest, and they will remember their gratitude to Li Xuan for a lifetime.
In this mood, Li Xuan walked to the crenel and looked into the distance.
The camp at the end of the line of sight was where Zhang Wanyu stationed his troops.
A turret was built there at some point, and someone was always staring in the direction of the city gate.
As if they were afraid that someone in the city would be killed at any time, the pain caused to them by the battle a few days ago has not faded yet.
Most of the corpses under Guancheng were collected by Tianyin's disciples themselves. Only they know best how many died.
Li Xuan knew in her heart that the minds of these people had been completely defeated.
After the violent storm, the jungle was in a mess, and people couldn't help but wonder if this was the will of God's wrath...
"The water vapor is strong now, which is not the best time for a fire attack. Is this what the prince is thinking?" Qiu Zhenmu's voice sounded behind Li Xuan.
The corners of Li Xuan's mouth raised slightly, feeling a little funny for a moment. She thought he was an arsonist.
Qiu Zhenmu took a step forward, shoulder to shoulder with Li Xuan, also looking at the Tianyin Sect camp in the distance, and then asked in a low voice: "The prince does not seem to want to attack Muzhou. This was the case before, and it is the same now."
"Brother Qiu noticed it?" Li Xuan turned to look at Qiu Zhenmu, who had become serious.
Qiu Zhenmu nodded slightly and said: "Although the prince has many arrangements, most of them are preparing to defend Guancheng. This is not in line with the prince's usual habits... If it were placed elsewhere, the prince would have already rushed in. Heading straight to Longtan."
Li Xuan smiled faintly, raised her head, pointed to the Tianyin Sect camp in the distance, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Qiu, do you think they have not attacked Meiling Pass during this time..."
After a pause, Li Xuan said: "Not to mention that they were seriously injured before, these days, there is a lot of support from Muzhou, and it is easiest to steal the city under the rain, but they didn't even do it once You tried it, why?”
"You don't dare." Qiu Zhenmu blurted out one sentence, and then he immediately became serious. Li Xuan's problem was definitely not that simple.
After thinking for a moment, Qiu Zhenmu suddenly said: "They are waiting. The Tianyin Sect will start an uprising in the next few days."
Li Xuan nodded: "The summer harvest in Wuzhou has ended. If I were not worried about something happening in Yuezhou and Hangzhou, I would have discussed with the envoy to transport the taxes and grain to the capital. However, although Wuzhou is in good condition, other states , but they are all in the final stage. The summer grain has not been completely stored in the warehouse, but most of them have been harvested. This is the best and last time for the Tianyin Sect to start an uprising..."
After a slight pause, Li Xuan turned around and said: "The other side is waiting, and so is I."
"Waiting for the news from the other side?"
"Yeah!" Li Xuan nodded and said: "Although everyone knows that the Tianyin Sect is about to start an uprising, no one knows how big the scale of the uprising will be and how big the impact will be before the uprising. If someone finally pulls back from the cliff, ...After all, this king is just a guest of Wuzhou, not a guest of Muzhou."
"Your Majesty, you have overthought, no one will stop at the cliff." Qiu Zhenmu shook his head, looked at the camp in the distance, and said with a cold expression: "They can't look back."
"Having said that, Brother Qiu, have we ever received a letter asking for help from the Muzhou Governor's Office?" Qiu Zhenmu was slightly startled by Li Xuan's words, and then he said bitterly: "No!"
"Brother Qiu, who is from a family background, naturally knows the taboos involved. Killing too many people is sometimes not a good thing. Besides, the king's order is for me to guard Meiling Pass and the entire Lanxi. He did not Order me to enter Muzhou." Li Xuan turned to look at Qiu Zhenmu with a faint expression.
Qiu Zhenmu nodded with a heavy expression.
Many times, local officials can act expediently without hesitation, but Li Xuan cannot. He is the current king of the county, and he is far more jealous than others.
When the emperor says a word, all the meritorious deeds he has made will be taken away.
Not even a superfluous explanation will be given.
"Thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty." Qiu Zhenmu immediately raised his hand to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan smiled nonchalantly and said: "No matter what, it won't be long before that day comes, and what we need to do then is to destroy the opponent first... Hey!"
Before Li Xuan finished speaking, she looked straight into the distance.
Qiu Zhenmu subconsciously followed Li Xuan's gaze and looked into the distance.
At this time, he did not see that the water vapor had condensed into two thin lenses in front of Li Xuan's eyes.
Everything in the distance suddenly became clear.
Li Xuan suddenly saw two black horses rushing directly into the Tianyin Sect's camp in an instant. And the moment they rushed in, one of the two horses fell directly with a "bang". He fell to the ground and never got up again.
The two cavalrymen did not care about the life or death of their mounts and rushed directly into the depths of the camp on the opposite side.
"Brother Qiu, do you think it's coming?" Li Xuan's sudden words woke up Qiu Zhenmu.
Qiu Zhenmu has a bold temperament, but at this time, he is a little nervous.
Li Xuan smiled lightly and said, "Brother Qiu, please send someone to call Feng Canjun, Wang Canjun, Colonel Yan and Qi Guang."
After hearing Li Xuan's order, Qiu Zhenmu's expression suddenly became extremely solemn, and he cupped his hands and said: "Obey the order!"
After saying "obey the order", Qiu Zhenmu immediately turned around and walked away.
Li Xuan raised his head again and looked at the camp in the distance again. The look on his face was terrifyingly calm.
After waiting for so long, this day finally came.
Over the past few months, Li Xuan and the Tianyin Sect had fought countless times and foiled their countless plots.
Although the Tianyin Sect is now in revolt, their foundation is much weaker than they originally expected.
Perhaps this is where Li Xuan’s real industry lies.
…
"Your Majesty!"
Qiu Zhenmu, Yan Tao, Feng Hua, Wang Qin, Qi Guang, and Li Zhu standing in the shadow behind.
In the entire Meiling Pass, everyone who is qualified to stand here is now here.
"Yes!" Li Xuan responded softly, but her eyes were still fixed on the camp in the distance.
There, the originally peaceful camp suddenly became agitated.
Countless soldiers beat gongs and drums in the camp and celebrated, sweeping away the previous decadence and depression.
At this time, even if you can't see clearly, you can clearly hear the voices on the other side, which makes everyone on the city wall change their colors.
Everyone immediately began to secretly discuss what happened there.
At this moment, a fast horse galloped out of the camp and rushed towards Meiling Pass in the blink of an eye, not caring about the slippery ground.
"Quiet, draw your sword, raise your gun!" Li Xuan's cold voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears.
In an instant, the entire Meiling Pass fell completely silent.
The next moment, there was a sound of "choking", and hundreds of soldiers had already pulled out the long swords at their waists at the same time.
"Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap." A dozen soldiers of the government were already standing on the city gate with their long swords raised.
The sharp blade was particularly conspicuous in the sunlight, and the cold murderous aura spread out silently, and quickly merged with the entire city.
The fast horse galloped from a distance, paused briefly at the seventy steps, then climbed up the steps and quickly headed towards the city gate.
On the city wall, no one was holding a bow or arrow at this time.
On the contrary, the black-clothed soldier under the city gate took off his long bow directly from his body, pointed at Li Xuan's position, and suddenly shot an arrow directly.
The sharp sword light flashed, and the long arrow had been cut off by Qiu Zhenmu, but in an instant, he had already grabbed the arrow.
Then he pulled off the yellow cloth on the arrowhead and handed it to Li Xuan respectfully.
Li Xuan turned over the yellow cloth in his hand, looked down, and a slight sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This is a slogan:
Here is the history of the governor of Muzhou. In order to fight against the thieves, he spread his propaganda in all directions, as follows:
There is a crowd of people who can clearly listen to my words.
Since ancient times, emperors have ruled the world with benevolent governance, caring for the people, recuperating and recuperating, appointing talented people, and neglecting corvee and underestimating gifts.
Since the late emperor's imperial conquest, no one in the four seas has surrendered. This is not a matter of human power, but is actually a gift from heaven.
At that time, the king was wise and the ministers were good enough to maintain the order of the world. However, when people with lofty ideals reached a high level, they still felt that their hats and shoes were turned upside down.
When the late emperor Bin Tian came to the throne, his power was transferred to Zuo. He only favored the demon queen, and was good at sealing Mount Tai. He brought disasters from heaven, did not follow the instructions of his ancestors, and abolished the rules and regulations. He was familiar with each other, and was calm and not strange. He was a father, son, monarch, and minister. The relationship between elders and young ones is extremely chaotic.
Madam, the monarch is the suzerain of the people, the court is the foundation of the world, and etiquette is the great defense of the world. If he did what he did, how could he teach the world as a lesson to future generations?
Afterwards, his descendants fell into desolation and lost their way as kings and ministers. As a result, people's hearts rebelled, and armies arose in the world.
According to the history of the governor of Muzhou, Wu Yue is now the general manager and the governor of Muzhou. He has inherited the order of the late emperor and dares not to be safe. He wants to send troops to clear the country, save the people from ruin and restore the dignity of the Han family.
Concerned that the people are unknown and are my enemies, the Jie family is heading north and is still in deep trouble. Therefore, I warn you in advance: When the soldiers arrive, the people should not avoid it.
My orders are serious and there is no slightest offense.
"History of the Qing Dynasty"
After Li Xuan read it, he nonchalantly passed the message in his hand to Qiu Zhenmu's hand. Qiu Zhenmu just took one look at it, and his whole person changed color.
He even held the memorial tightly in his hand and refused to let anyone else look at it.
Qingjunzi, Tianyin Sect and others use the slogan of Qingjunzi.
In the name of Shi Xu, the governor of Muzhou, he attacked the Demon Queen.
Qiu Zhenmu remembered that Li Xuan had talked to him about the governor of Muzhou before, and he immediately understood that he had made a mistake before.
"My hall master has said that if the King of Nanchang knows his integrity, he will open the door immediately and welcome our Muzhou army into the city!" The black soldiers below waved their hands and shouted wantonly below, provoking everyone on the city wall without caring about life and death.
"Shoot off his ears and shoot through his arms." Li Xuan ordered indifferently.
In an instant, four long arrows flew out, piercing the black pawn's ears and arms in an instant.
"Ah!" A miserable wailing sound came from below, and blood was already flowing from his neck.
The black pawn did not dare to stay any longer under the city. He held the horse's belly between his legs and carefully turned around with the horse to return to the camp.
At this time, Li Xuan's cold voice came: "Tell your hall master that the imperial army will attack from all directions in the near future. I hope she will be prepared... In addition, please send a message to the governor of the Qin family, please He should take good care of his head and don’t let it be removed before I reach Muzhou City, otherwise, I will be very disappointed.”
The figure of the black soldier under the city paused, and subconsciously turned back to look at Li Xuan, with incomparable resentment in his eyes.
But at this time, Li Xuan had already turned around and looked at everyone present.
"Everyone, the history of the governor of Muzhou has gone against the grain!"
