The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

Chapter 983
The city lord protruded his eyes like dead fish, his breathing became more and more difficult, and he exhaled like a gossamer: "You... you... let go... I..."

Feng Jiuxiao smiled faintly, imitating his tone and said: "You...are...playing...laughing..."

The guard's face was ashen, his forehead was dripping with sweat, and he could barely breathe!
His heart has already collapsed at this time!
I was trapped to death by some invisible magnetic field, and my throat was pinched by an invisible big hand, as if I was stuck in a quagmire, sinking deeper and deeper!
He couldn't help but start to wonder if the other party was a human or a demon?
Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said: "What do I ask, what do you answer!" The tone was flat, but the domineering side leaked beyond doubt!

In the eyes of others, Feng Jiuxiao's smile is bright and sunny, but in the eyes of the guard, Feng Jiuxiao's smile is weird and creepy, making people creepy!

The guard nodded desperately!
The people around and the guards on the city were already stunned!

They saw an incredible scene!
The once majestic and mighty General Zhang actually hovered in the air, unable to move!
There seems to be a mysterious force controlling him!
The young man in white clothes like snow in front of him just stood there so casually, with his sleeves fluttering, and he could move without wind. The domineering arrogance of the world, no one else in the world!

The world is big and I am the biggest!
Feng Jiuxiao's aura surged like a frenzy, quickly covering the entire world!Frightened by his aura, everyone had an illusion that the tall General Zhang suddenly shrank and became smaller in front of the boy in white!

Like a shivering sheep, but the boy in white is like a majestic lion!The contrast is quite strong!
But what made everyone doubt their dazzled eyes the most was how did the boy in white hang General Zhang out of thin air without the help of transparent ropes, gallows and other tools?
Is he really not human?He used the magic method?
Or some kind of cover-up often used by charlatans?
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Who are you?"

The guard said honestly: "The guard of Lanling is Zhang Hongru, a fifth-rank cavalry general."

Feng Jiuxiao said with a smile: "There are great scholars in talking and laughing, but there are no white people in dealings. It seems that you are still an elegant person!" With a slight movement of his mind, the invisible force that was holding Zhang Hongru's throat loosened instantly!
Zhang Hongru immediately escaped like a drowning swimmer and finally surfaced. He began to breathe the air crazily and greedily!

The short almost suffocating experience just now made him feel as if he had spent 100 years underwater!Endless despair and the fear of being infinitely close to death surrounded him all the time!His greatest wish is to take a breath, to take a breath of fresh and free air!

"How is it? You have to taste your wish and be able to breathe free air. This time you feel that the air is very precious?" Feng Jiuxiao said lightly.

Zhang Hongru immediately nodded and said: "I feel it! Precious and precious! It is indeed precious!"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Then do you cherish everything you have now? Such as air, such as freedom."

Zhang Hongru only felt that the other party's smile had no good intentions, his spine felt chills, and he trembled when he spoke, "Treasure, cherish, of course!"

Feng Jiuxiao said with a smile: "That's good, I think we still have a common language. Did Li Yu ask you to stop me?"

Zhang Hongru tremblingly said: "Yes!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Is Li Yu still in Lanling City?"

Zhang Hongru said: "Not here, he has already returned to Southern Tang!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "How many troops are there in Lanling?"

Zhang Hongru said: "Seven hundred infantry, one hundred archers!"

Pang Shiwu said: "More than 800 people, more than Qingzhou!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Because this is one step closer to the front line of the national border! Naturally, there are more troops! The surrounding counties are estimated to have so many troops, and the entire Yizhou area is estimated to have more than [-] troops! And in Xuzhou, the troops It is estimated that it will have to reach the scale of tens of thousands!"

Pang Shiwu said: "Is Xuzhou the front line?"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Well, it's very close. In fact, Suyu, which is a little further south, is the real front line. Chuzhou to the southeast of Suyu, Sizhou and Haozhou, which are a little bit south, are all The territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty. We headed south all the way, passed Xuzhou and then Suyu, and then we arrived at Sizhou."

Pang Shiwu said: "Oh, so Suqianyu should have the most troops?"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "That's right! But I don't think there will be more than [-] troops! Too many troops is a burden to the local area, so the troops stationed will definitely be compressed to the maximum within the limit, and this minimum troop limit As long as it can withstand the opponent's first wave of attack, it is enough to allow time for the follow-up officers and troops to rush to help! Once the backup arrives, the crisis will naturally be resolved!"

Pang Shiwu stared at Zhang Hongru's face and sneered, "I'm afraid that if Nantang attacks, the tens of thousands of horses will immediately turn against each other, and the gates of Suyu will be opened wide. Then General Zhang happily opened the gate of Lanling City and gave a warm welcome, and then went straight to Qingzhou with the Southern Tang army, so that the Southern Tang army could conquer the three cities without any effort At that time, you can swallow thousands of miles like a tiger, and you will be able to approach the capital city in a short time, and the reinforcements of the Great Zhou may not have left the capital at this time, right?"

Zhang Hongru was sweating like rain, begging for mercy!What the boy in black said seemed to be true. The officers and soldiers of Da Zhou were all paper?All the way to the capital in a few days?Don't bring such hurtful things!
Feng Jiuxiao was expressionless, and with a wave of his sleeve, Zhang Hongru immediately regained his freedom!He gently floated to the ground, looked at himself, and was unharmed!

Feng Jiuxiao said lightly: "Open the door!"

Zhang Hongru immediately rushed to the top of the city and shouted loudly: "Open—the city—gate——!"

The city gate slowly opened.

Crowded.

Feng Jiuxiao said: "How many of you were bought by Li Yu?"

"..."

"I'm sorry to say it or dare not say it? Widow, let me put it another way, has the magistrate of Lanling cooperated with Li Yu?"

"Well, probably not. I don't know if they're connected anyway."

"Why doesn't Zhixian cooperate with Li Yu?"

"Well, he might be more loyal!"

"Why did you take refuge in Li Yu? He gave a lot of benefits?"

"This, um, yes."

"Let's hear it, I promise you something good."

"Master Deputy Ambassador, I was confused for a while, can you spare me, I have an eighty-year-old mother..."

"Hehe, there are babies under the third dynasty! Why, don't you say that I am a fake deputy? Haha, don't worry, I won't kill you now, as long as you tell the truth. What benefits has Li Yu given you now? "

"300 taels of gold!"

"Li Yu really spends money like dirt. He first feeds gold to the boa constrictor and then to the general. 300 taels of gold is really generous! Besides the 300 taels of gold, what benefits did he promise you? I believe you will do it for 300 taels of gold. Two gold and the risk of beheading?"

"In the future, if things come to pass, I will be appointed as the second-rank general of the Southern Tang Dynasty to assist the country."

"Hey! The second-rank general of Fuguo is powerful, second only to princes and nobles, and much better than the fifth-rank Ranger General!"

"Master Deputy Ambassador, I was confused for a moment, so please forgive me."

"Okay, I spared your life, but you have to resign from the official position of Dazhou and go to Southern Tang immediately. I will give you one day and one night. After one day and one night, it will be time for the Imperial City Division to hunt you down!"

"Ah? My lord, you expelled me to Southern Tang, are you forcing me to die?"

"Isn't it right for you to say that? You are connected with foreign countries and colluded with the princes of the Southern Tang Dynasty in order to commit crimes. This is a serious crime against the nine clans. I will let you go now and give you twelve hours of escape time, which is enough for you to escape all the way. Nantang, what a happy ending to be your second-rank general in the Southern Tang Dynasty, why are you so worried that you are about to go to the execution ground?"

"Master Deputy Ambassador, I am now in Southern Tang Dynasty, and I am just a lost dog. Li Yu will never use me as a useless person!"

"You mean you are wearing the armor of a fifth-rank general from Dazhou Cong, and you are holding the general seal. If you go like this, he will reuse you?"

"No, my lord, don't entertain me. I can only show my value by offering Lanling. I go to Nantang empty-handed and they naturally don't want to see me."

"Oh, you also understand that if you leave this temple in Lanling, you, a big Buddha, will immediately become an ordinary monk, worthless?"

Zhang Hongru said awkwardly: "Understood."

"Since you know that you are nothing if you leave the platform that Da Zhou gave you, why do you betray Da Zhou? Eating what's in the bowl and looking at what's in the pot? It's a bit rough. To put it another way, you want to improve, you want to be promoted , you want to honor your ancestors and seal your wife and son, right?"

"..."

"Human nature!"
