Lu Changheng and Li Qingchen were a little nervous. They were not fledglings like Li Qingzhou who had left Beijing for the first time. They were somewhat aware of the lawlessness of these warriors.

However, considering that the long march was really hard, and that Lu Changheng, the two of them, had extraordinary cultivation, they were prepared to reluctantly agree, and then Lv Changheng led some appropriate people to personally control military discipline in response.

When the news came out, the army was filled with joy, and the speed suddenly increased, and they soon arrived at the city gate.

Then, not unexpectedly, the four gates of the county seat of Yucheng County were closed tightly, and there was no intention to open the gates because of the shouts of the army outside the city and the shouts of the messengers.

The anger in the army began to build up, and the shouts and curses quickly turned into riots. Until this time, the city still did not accept the messenger.

At this time, Lu and Li realized the difficulty of leading the army.

There are only 5,000 people, but the march for most of the day has already become such a mess. It is difficult to imagine what the state of the 40,000 army, including 20,000 who were defeated at the front line, would be like.

With no choice but to do so, Li Qingchen and Lu Changheng had no choice but to ride over, announce their names in person, call to the city, and ask the other party to open the door, and inevitably made some guarantees.

But still no reply.

"Two captains, someone on the west side of the city couldn't bear it anymore and climbed directly to the city." At this moment, the army came to report lazily, but they brought a piece of news that made people feel numb. "General Zheng made

With a good hand of immortal energy, climbing a city is as easy as walking on flat ground, so this time the door will be opened easily."

Li Qingchen was injured, so Lu Changheng did not hesitate to fight his horse and go first. The two of them had no doubt that if they rushed in at once, the army would lose control.

However, as soon as Lu Changheng reined in his horse, the worries of the two people almost disappeared, because at this moment, there was a sudden sound of drums on the top of the city, and then there was constant movement, and then they saw countless soldiers braving the rain.

After climbing the city wall, everyone held guns and knives, carried shields and carried crossbows, and faced the outside world in unison.

Under such circumstances, no matter how good Captain Zheng is at making immortal energy, he will still be stabbed out of Xicheng.

Not only that, if you look closely, you can see that many of these soldiers are already wearing their armor, as if they were prepared in advance.

Li and Lu were at a loss for a moment, and then looked at each other, but seemed powerless. Until this time, they thought Cao Wang was the one who sent the elite Liangjun garrison over because of his sectarian opinion.

But soon, as a person appeared at the top of the city, the two of them were completely stunned and lost their voices. Li Qingchen felt even more uncomfortable.

"Brother Lu, there is also Li Twelve Lang, right? You are all right!" Wang Zhen, neatly dressed, came to greet him on the city gate tower with several leaders, and then he came down while holding on to the tower wall. "

We brothers from Mangdang Mountain thought about it and decided to help Brother Zhang, so we sent out troops early in the morning and took down this city very quickly this afternoon, somewhat faster than you. The troops and city are all here, so you don’t want to

I'm counting on too much... If you ask me, you might as well retreat right now, so as not to hurt the loyalty of our former colleagues. If that's the case, you two can come in to take shelter from the rain and drink together!"

The two of them haven't answered yet.

Suddenly, on top of the city, a general came quickly from the west and shouted from a distance: "Are these two bastards, Lu Changheng and Li Qingchen?"

The two heard what they heard and hurried to look, only to see an object being thrown down from the air. When it landed, the surrounding sergeants screamed, and then the object was quickly brought to them by these sergeants... The two just

One look at it, and you will know what will happen to the team who is good at immortality... This is a head.

At this time, the two of them looked at the wall again and recognized this person. It was none other than the youngest son of Zhou Xiaoming, the former deputy governor of Xuzhou who was the favorite general of the current saint but died in Dongyi. Their former colleague is now

Zhou Xingfan is the backbone of the deposed Dragon Gang rebels.

Zhou Xingfan came to the city tower and stood side by side with Wang Zhen. Without hesitation, he pointed his finger and cursed loudly: "The emperor is ignorant and has no morals. He is violent and has lost the hearts of the people. We were all in the same rank in the past. Why do some people dare to draw their swords and rise up in anger?"

An Tianxia, ​​you two can only do the opposite and be two muddy lackeys with a mantis' arm as a cart?!"

Not to mention that the two of them were dumbfounded, they were completely silent in the rain. Even everyone else above and below the city also lost their voices.

But the rest of the group lost their composure, but Zhou Xingfan, who was furious, grabbed a crossbow from the sergeant behind him, raised his hand and fired. Perhaps because of the dampness, his accuracy was not good enough, and he only hit the horse under Li Qingchen's crotch. The horse neighed in pain,

He lost control of his hooves and knocked Li Qingchen down on the spot.

Of course, after all, there were warriors from the Eastern Capital around, and their quality was still sufficient. Everyone came to their senses, and those who picked up weapons picked up their weapons, those who raised their shields, and those who helped others quickly helped Li Qingchen up, and covered him with a large shield.

Got this captain.

On the top of the city, Zhou Xingfan fired a crossbow, but he still felt that it was not enough, but Wang Zhen's eyes were almost frightened and his veins were exposed, and he continued to curse: "Come! Come! Come! I, Zhou Xingfan, am on the city today, and there are only four people in the city.

Five thousand people, let’s see how many lives you two Guanxi Han people have to throw away before they can cross this city and cross the Bian River! Today, the Deposed Dragon Gang and you and other lackeys of the imperial court are incompatible with each other!"

It was only then that Li Qingchen, who had been thrown down, came to his senses on the muddy ground, and then felt unbearable pain in his chest and abdomen.

"Sanlang, so many things went wrong later, aren't you angry?"

Zhang Xing, who had no idea that his four former colleagues and subordinates were now gathering together, had been busy for almost a whole day. At this time, he only took a break under a roadside shed and drank some hot porridge. Unexpectedly, the man who had been working hard with him all day came to Zhang Xing.

Bai Yousi suddenly asked.

Of course Zhang Xing knew what the other party was talking about: deserters, traitors, dispersers, hesitants, cowards, and countless logistical and military troubles.

After hesitating for a while, Zhang Dalongtou decided to explain his thoughts on these things to Bai Yousi in detail: "Actually, it's okay. The main reason is that the world has not reached a certain level yet, and people are inevitably confused... Some things are early.

It was expected, and there cannot be any shortage of officers and soldiers."

Bai Yousi's heart moved slightly, and he asked seriously from one side: "What does it mean for people to be confused? Is it that everyone is thinking about betrayal?"

"No, there are only a few ambitious people, and there are basically few who take the initiative to engage in conspiracies... What I mean is that in a chaotic situation, everyone is worried that the situation will get worse, so everyone can't help but interact with each other.

Beware of calculations, which will cause people to have no mutual trust. Think about it. In order not to fall into a disadvantage, or to prevent yourself and your family from falling into some difficult situation, you can only act first, or act first before the situation changes.

These responses... This does not distinguish between positions, good or evil, but human nature." Zhang Xingyi said. "But this kind of behavior, from the outside, seems to be actively causing chaos, and it will indeed cause chaos.

The situation is getting worse and worse.”

Bai Yousi was a little stunned, but soon she realized a problem: "If the situation is so bad, and the enemy and ourselves are all confused, will it be useless to follow the rules and be a good person?"

"Of course not." Zhang Xing laughed and put down the empty porridge bowl. "People's hearts are made of flesh, and everything must be done logically. It may be useless for you to tell others the rules and be a good person, but if you do

If you persist, it will eventually be useful to some people... It's just that this kind of thing depends on luck. Sometimes when you encounter specific things or specific people, you can be a good person and follow the rules, but there will be no good results.

Retribution, or even because of this incident, this person fell into a desperate situation, or even died. It will inevitably make people feel that the world is desolate and people's hearts are terrible. But in fact, most of the time, or if there are too many things, it is better to follow the rules.

It’s better than not following the rules.”

Bai Yousi suddenly realized it, nodded repeatedly, but thoughtfully, and continued to ask: "Sanlang, have you ever thought about writing down these thoughts and engraving them?"

Zhang Xing was slightly startled, and his heart was obviously moved, but he quickly put his thoughts away and gestured towards the military stronghold being built in front of him: "Let's just win this battle! Zhang Xuguo's forward has already entered Dongjun.

!”

Bai Yousi nodded heavily.
