Chapter 419 Control
"What did you say?!"

Jiang Chun exclaimed, his body swayed, and he almost fell down.

"Defeated... a big defeat! Zhang Dutong was captured, Zhu Anfu envoy led the remnant soldiers and fled back to God's Arm City... We, a thousand soldiers and horses, arrived at Laojun Mountain between Syria and Lu, and were captured by the Mongolian army. Attack... Only a few of us escaped back..."

"Why did you come here? Why did you come here! Zhang Shi was defeated again? He was defeated so quickly... No, how did he get captured, a dignified general?"

"Zhang Dutong was tricked by brothers of the same clan to negotiate, but he was arrested..."

"Ridiculous! What nonsense!"

When several officials in Xuzhou City heard the news, they jumped up one after another as if their buttocks were being burned.

"Impossible, even if it is fabricated, such a thing cannot be fabricated!"

"War is not a child's play, how can it be reasonable?!"

"..."

Amidst the shouts, Wei Wenbo was still sitting there, his face ashen, and he kept muttering: "I expected it, I expected it a long time ago... What should I do? What should I do..."

Jiang Chun turned his head to look at Wei Wenbo, even though he felt contemptuous, he had to admit that the Zhizhou was really right.

It shouldn't be handed over to the idiot Zhang Shi, who defended the Syrian state. Now it's good, not only the Luzhou army is defeated, but the Syrian state's troops are also stretched.

Being a general judge is so annoying, it's better to be a county magistrate...

"Zaiyang, Zaiyang."

"Zhizhou, are you calling me?"

"All of you go down, I will negotiate with Jiang Tong."

Wei Wenbo waved away the others, looked at Jiang Chun, and asked worriedly, "Zaiyang, tell me the truth, where did Li Feiyu go?"

"Zhizhou, I really don't know, this... Feiyu is Ding Xiang's student, and he should get closer to Zhizhou."

Wei Wenbo looked at Jiang Chun again for a long time, as if he wanted to say something, his eyes were full of hesitation, but finally gave up.

"That being the case, hurry up and prepare for defense."

"Yes……"

Wei Wenbo squinted his eyes and watched Jiang Chun retreat, and murmured: "It's really unreliable, everyone is unreliable..."

~~
Xuzhou City has been sealed off now, but unlike Shi Jun's strong walls and clear fields at that time, Wei Wenbo did not remove the population outside the city at all, but simply closed the city gates and prohibited the people from entering and leaving.

There are many advantages to doing so, there will be no refugees to occupy the residences in the city, no food will be consumed, and the city of Syria will remain calm for a while...

Li Zhaocheng walked through Dabei Lane and turned into a small house. Jiang Fan was sitting in the yard sharpening a knife, half of his arm was bare, showing his huge muscles.

"Is Jiang Bantou not cold?"

"It's not cold. Don't look at my broken hand. This hand is still strong, right?"

"Strong."

"Some people say that I look thin when I dress up as a woman." Jiang Fan smiled and continued to sharpen his knife.

Li Zhaocheng didn't understand him, so he greeted him and entered the lobby, only to see Han Qi'an and Yan Yunyun sitting opposite each other, discussing something.

"Brother, why don't you mark this mansion outside the horsemen in the north of the city as well?"

"Yes, ten people are enough here."

"I'm afraid it's not enough. There is a small treasury outside the horseman, which is built under the master bedroom."

Han Qi'an said: "How do you know?"

Yan Yunyun sneered, and said leisurely: "He used to prostitute me..."

At this point, when she saw Li Zhaocheng coming in, she laughed at herself, and said: "The year before last, the Mongolian army attacked Syria, and I ran to Qingfu. Now I ran back when the Mongolian army attacked the city. I am so daring." Less?"

"Stop gossiping, the business is important." Han Qi'an said lightly, "You go and rest first, and you will take over these businesses after we finish the business."

Yan Yunyun stood up, nodded to Li Zhaocheng, and went back to the bedroom.

Li Zhaocheng lifted the teapot on the table, poured a cup of tea for Han Qi'an, and asked, "Can Uncle Han help my nephew?"

Han Qi'an took the teacup, his eyes still on the information in his hand.

There is also a map on his case, which is the city defense map of Xuzhou, clearly marking the streets, alleys, government offices, granaries, etc. on the map.

Taking a sip of tea, Han Qi'an wrote a few more lines of numbers around the government office on the map according to the information in his hand, as if remembering the number of guards.

"Why don't you understand?"

Li Zhaocheng said: "Why doesn't Lizhi County defend Luzhou and Xuzhou? Where did it go?"

"After guarding for more than twenty years, can the situation be changed?" Han Qi'an asked casually, but did not answer another question.

"It can be seen that the county has no order to leave the station without authorization, just in case..."

"Who said there is no order? It is Wei Zhizhou who came to adjust the county, and Wei Zhizhou who went to adjust the county."

Li Zhaocheng was still a little puzzled, and asked again: "Why are we staying in this city of Xuzhou?"

Han Qi'an finally stopped what he was doing, raised his head, and said, "Let's meet Jiang Tongsan again tonight, and you'll know when the time comes..."

~~
into the night.

Jiang Chun was surprised to see Han Qi'an.

"How did Mr. Han enter the city? The city gate has been sealed..."

Han Qi'an said with a smile: "It's the first month of the month and I've entered the city, and I've been in the city for more than a month."

Jiang Chun was taken aback again, and said, "What's the meaning? Where did Feiyu lead the troops?"

"The county magistrate believed that our army lived in the lower reaches of the Min and Tuo rivers, and had no place to defend. Moreover, Zhangdu had [-] troops, and it would be useless if he had more than a thousand people, so he went to look for a fighter. Of course, the county magistrate did not expect Zhangdu to The system was defeated so quickly..."

"Yeah, who would have thought, but..."

"However, the county magistrate has already made arrangements, and left a great contribution to Jiang Tong's judge, and then we will work together to defeat the enemy."

Jiang Chun still couldn't recover, turned his head to look at Li Zhaocheng, then at Jiang Fan, and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Is there a map?"

"Of course there are."

Han Qi'an said: "By the way, it's inconvenient to bypass Wei Zhizhou for this credit, why not invite him too, I will refer to Zhizhou and the general judge."

"Alright." Jiang Chun finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly sent someone to invite Wei Wenbo.

……

Li Zhaocheng stood aside and listened, and gradually understood Li Xia's intentions.

It seems that Li Xia didn't agree with the plans of Zhu Yusun, Zhang Shi, Wei Wenbo, Jiang Chun and others who were guarding Luzhou, so he didn't plan to be transferred to Luzhou or Syria from the beginning.

Zhang Shi lost his geographical advantage and his morale was weak. His defeat was predictable and extremely difficult to recover...although he didn't expect him to lose so quickly.

In short, instead of taking the Qingfu army to defeat together, Li Xia might as well wait for the right time to throw out his own style of play.

Han Qi'an stayed in Syria to find the right time to persuade Wei Wenbo and Jiang Chun to cooperate.

I just don't know where he went...

Li Zhaocheng thought about it later, and nodded secretly, thinking that the whole thing would be smooth in this way.

After a while, there was an announcement from outside the study that it was Wei Wenbo who had arrived, and Jiang Chun went to welcome him in person.

"Hmph, even if Li Feiyu has a way to defeat the enemy, he shouldn't have acted like this, you know..."

In the middle of Wei Wenbo's speech, Jiang Fan, who had been standing silently by the side, suddenly stepped forward, covered his mouth with one hand, and raised the other hand.

Li Zhaocheng narrowed his eyes, and clearly saw that what Jiang Fan held was not a hook, but a dagger, which was cutting Wei Wenbo's throat neatly.

"Puff puff……"

Blood gushed like a fountain, and the sound continued for a long time.

Li Zhaocheng was completely dumbfounded.

Jiang Chun also kept his eyes straight, staring blankly at the scene in front of him, as if he was in a dream.

He suddenly trembled.

"Don't shout." Han Qi'an said: "Jiang Tong, please calm down, you are Qiao'er's adoptive father, I never want to hurt you."

Jiang Chun couldn't scream when he reached his mouth, so he closed his mouth in fright, but his feet went limp and he collapsed to the ground.

Jiang Fan didn't even look at him, and walked quickly out of the study.

After a while, two screams sounded from the corridor, it was Wei Wenbo's guards who had been eliminated.

Han Qi'an said again: "Jiang Tongjuan, the Mongolian army is about to attack Syria, no one cares how Wei Zhizhou died, people care more about...who will guard the city of Xuzhou and defeat the Mongolian army ,yes?"

Jiang Chun was so frightened that his eyes were dull, let alone speak.

Han Qi'an was not in a hurry, and turned his head to look at Li Zhaocheng again.

……

Li Zhaocheng was obviously frightened too, Junxiu's face was pale, he opened his mouth to say something, but finally he just muttered.

"I killed the official... I killed the official..."

"What does Li Langjun think?" Han Qi'an asked.

"I...I..." Li Zhaocheng swallowed, trying to calm down.

He opened his mouth to say that he was Li Xia's elder brother and would never tell the truth, but suddenly he thought that he still didn't know Li Yong's intentions, so he said, "I will...will convince father..."

Only then did Han Qi'an nodded in satisfaction.

"In this way, everyone is a family. Let me just say it straight, Alang wants to control Xuzhou City...Jiang Tongjuan? Do you need me to say it again?"
