Comprehensive martial arts: Qixia town storytellers, the beginning of the tie to Qiao Feng

Chapter 283 Back to Basics!

Yangzhou.

Since Yu Rui solved the crisis of flooding Yangzhou city that day, Ruan Ruan gave up the previous series of plans.

This time, she will use an upright siege method to break through Yangzhou City, so that everyone will be convinced and have nothing to say!

Qiu Shenji looked at Ruan Ruan who was walking back and forth, but he didn't dare to disturb him casually.

If Ruan Ruan was distracted by his words and failed to think of a good strategy to defeat the enemy, then his crime would be serious.

Ruan Ruan, who was walking back and forth, suddenly stopped and said, "I thought of it!"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Shenji immediately asked, "What good idea did Miss Ruan Ruan think of?"

Ruan Ruan replied: "We can use..."

"No."

Just when Ruan Ruan was about to say that he had just thought of a good strategy to defeat the enemy, a voice suddenly came out from outside the handsome tent and interrupted Ruan Ruan's words.

Ruan Ruan and Qiu Shenji turned their heads to look at the door of the handsome tent at the same time.

Then I saw two middle-aged men in sheepskin furs walking in.

These two people are none other than Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling who came from Chang'an Starry Night.

Ruan Ruan looked at the two people, frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

The last time she wanted to break through Yangzhou City, she was stopped by Yu Rui with tricks.

This time she had just thought of a good plan, but before she could say it, she was interrupted again.

In a mere city of Yangzhou, where did so many saviors come from?

Kou Zhong looked at Ruan Ruan and asked, "I heard your name is Ruan Ruan?"

Ruan Ruan looked at Kou Zhong and asked, "You know me?"

Kou Zhong shook his head, then pointed to Xu Ziling who was standing beside him, and asked, "Do you know him? Maybe your master mentioned him to you?"

Xu Ziling once again looked at Kou Zhong helplessly.

The last time he met Dongfang Lan, the saint of Cihang Jingzhai, Kou Zhong teased him like this.

This time when he met Ruan Ruan, the saint of the Yinkui sect, Kou Zhong did it again.

If he had known this before, he had to rely on people like Shang Xiufang, Dong Shuni, and Chu Chu to stimulate Song Yuzhi when he said anything.

So that this guy can suffer more torture in front of Song Yuzhi.

Ruan Ruan glanced at Xu Ziling with some doubts, and said, "Who is he? Why did my master mention him to me?"

Kou Zhong chuckled, pouted at Xu Ziling, and said, "Aren't you going to explain yourself?"

Xu Ziling felt helpless again.

This is probably the best bad friend.

"I... have nothing to explain, it's all over."

After seeing the joke, Kou Zhong didn't make things difficult for Xu Ziling, he turned to Ruan Ruan and said, "Ruan Ruan, we are from Yangzhou, please let Yangzhou go for our sake."

Ruan Ruan looked at the mouth with a serious tone, and asked with a sneer: "Do you have a lot of face?"

Kou Zhong replied: "I don't know the four characters of the young commander Kou Zhong, do you have this face?"

"If not, then adding another Xu Ziling, is it enough?"

When they heard the names of "Young Marshal Kou Zhong" and "Xu Ziling", the expressions of Ruan Ruan and Qiu Shenji suddenly changed!
They lived in this land, how could they not have heard of the names of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling.

No matter in the court or in the rivers and lakes, everyone in the Tang Dynasty knows Ssangyong!
It's just that they never imagined that Ssangyong, who had disappeared for so many years, would suddenly appear in front of them!
"You are Xu Ziling?"

Ruan Ruan turned his gaze to Xu Ziling.

Facing Ruan Ruan's surprised gaze, Xu Ziling nodded and said, "That's right, I am Xu Ziling."

Hearing Xu Ziling's answer, Ruan Ruan drew out the long sword at his waist and pointed at Xu Ziling without saying a word.

Seeing this, Kou Zhong quickly stepped forward to protect Xu Ziling behind him, and said, "Hey, hey, what are you doing?"

Ruan Ruan said angrily: "Get out of the way, I will kill this guy for Master!"

Kou Zhong pushed the point of his sword away, and said: "Don't get excited, we have something to talk about, and you are not our opponent."

Ruan Ruan was furious immediately upon hearing this.

But she has no way to refute Kou Zhong.

Because she really can't be Ssangyong's opponent.

Keng!
Ruan Ruan put the sword back into its sheath, turned her head and said, "Let's go!"

Kou Zhong said with a smile: "We can go, but please promise us not to attack Yangzhou City."

Ruan Ruan shook her head and said, "This is impossible!"

Speaking of which, Ruan Ruan turned her head and asked, "Are you going to help Datang?"

Qiu Shenji on the side was also extremely nervous at this time.

If the famous Ssangyong wanted to help Datang, wouldn't they be sure to lose?
Kou Zhong shook his head and said, "We don't intend to help Datang, we just don't want Yangzhou City to be harmed."

Ruan Ruan said: "Xu Jingye's army is in Yangzhou City. If you let them come out to fight us fairly, Yangzhou City will naturally not be in any danger!"

If Ssangyong asked her not to attack Yangzhou City with a strong attitude, she would naturally have to obey.

But seeing that Ssangyong was easy to talk to, she wanted to use Ssangyong to make Xu Jingye leave Yangzhou City.

Once Xu Jingye's army loses the protection of the tall and strong Yangzhou City, she can easily defeat Xu Jingye's army and pacify Yangzhou!
As for whether Xu Jingye would take the opportunity to cross the river, she was not worried.

Because she had already sent people to scuttle all the ferries. Without the ferries, it would be impossible for Xu Jingye's army to cross the natural danger of the Yangtze River!

Kou Zhong heard the words and said to Ruan Ruan: "Then we will make a deal!"

Saying that, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling prepared to leave.

At this time, Ruan Ruan suddenly shouted: "Xu Ziling, wait a minute!"

Hearing Ruan Ruan's shout, Xu Ziling turned his head to look at Ruan Ruan.

Ruan Ruan looked directly at Xu Ziling and said, "If it wasn't for you back then, my master would have won the world!"

"Now that my senior sister is sitting on the throne of the Great Zhou Emperor, it is proof!"

Xu Ziling was silent when he heard Ruan Ruan's words.

Seeing Xu Ziling's silence, Ruan Ruan also fell silent.

Since she was a child, she admired Ssangyong and liked to listen to Ssangyong's stories.

But one day, when she learned that Xu Ziling, one of Shuanglong, had a relationship with her master and deeply hurt her master, she no longer liked Shuanglong.

She is familiar with military books and practices martial arts diligently.

The purpose is to prove to the world that their Yinkui faction is not without the ability to compete for the world one day.

It's just that her master gave up everything that was at his fingertips for a relationship, for a person!
Kou Zhong glanced at Xu Ziling, then at Ruan Ruan, and said, "Then we'll leave first."

As he said that, Kou Zhong pulled Xu Ziling and walked outside.

Ruan Ruan watched Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling's leaving figures, and did not stop them.

Qiu Shenji came over and asked with some doubts, "Are they really Double Dragons?"

Earlier, when he suddenly heard the name of Double Dragon, he was shocked.

When he saw the casual behavior of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, he couldn't help being suspicious again.

The world-famous Ssangyong shouldn't be high and mighty, right?

How can you be so hippie smiling?
Ruan Ruan replied: "Although I haven't seen them, I can be sure that they should be Ssangyong, and no one would dare to pretend to be them."

In the past, there were many people in the Jianghu who pretended to be Ssangyong to bluff and cheat, and none of them survived in the end.

She also knew that her master had issued a death order.

Anyone who dares to pretend to be Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling will be killed without mercy once they are discovered.

As time passed, no one dared to pretend to be Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling anymore.

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling didn't move at all.

From the previous performances of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, it can be seen that Kou Zhong is more lively and Xu Ziling is more calm.

The world's impression of heaven and man is always that heaven and man should be superior, like gods.

But in fact, that's just some people deliberately maintaining the image of a superior person.

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were born as punks.

Today's performance is not so much a hippie smile, but a return to the basics, a return to the true self.

It is precisely because of this unrestrained open-mindedness and freedom that Ssangyong is Ssangyong.

Qiu Shenji sighed, with a look of helplessness on his face.

This one after another accident is really surprising.

……

After Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling left the Great Zhou military camp, they went to Yangzhou City.

When Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling showed up, they were naturally suspected again, but after Kou Zhong once again revealed his identity with the Sky Saber Technique, everyone no longer had any doubts about them.

Song Yushan was even more excited.

Kou Zhong is his second uncle, now that Kou Zhong is back, as long as Kou Zhong raises his arms as a young marshal, there will be crowds of responders from all over the world.

At that time, perhaps Kou Zhong can continue to complete the things that were not completed back then!
But when they learned that the purpose of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling's visit was to get them to withdraw from Yangzhou City, everyone was dumbfounded.

Didn't Ssangyong come to help them?
Just came here purely for the people of Yangzhou City?

Song Yushan looked at Kou Zhong, and asked very puzzled: "Little uncle, are you going to help us?"

Kou Zhong glanced at Song Yushan, and said: "We have long since retreated into the world, and we have come back this time to visit our relatives."

"I came to Yangzhou because Yangzhou is our hometown, and it is for the innocent people in Yangzhou City."

"It's your business if you want to fight for the world, but please don't use the common people as a shield."

Usually Kou Zhong can joke around, but when it comes to serious business, he will be serious.

When everyone heard Kou Zhong's words, they all looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one could say a word of objection.

Facing the famous young marshal who could once wrestle with Taizong.

After all, they still didn't have the confidence to say "no".

Xu Jingye looked at Kou Zhong and said, "Young Marshal, since we entered Yangzhou City, we have never committed any crime against Minqiu. We also want to protect the people of Yangzhou."

"We can withdraw from Yangzhou City, but please don't let the rebels take the opportunity to attack us, Young Marshal."

Xu Jingye knew very well that Yangzhou City was indeed a good place to garrison troops.

But the hundreds of thousands of people in Yangzhou City are always a problem.

If they keep defending Yangzhou City, causing innocent people to be implicated, and when public grievances arise, they may be in danger of losing popular support.

Now the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the restoration of the Great Tang Dynasty is the time to compete for the hearts of the people of the world.

He must not make a decision that may lose popular support for the sake of temporary safety.

He had been looking for a suitable opportunity to withdraw from Yangzhou City before, but now the arrival of Ssangyong just gave him a new step.

Kou Zhong nodded and said, "It's natural."

Xu Jingye heard the words and said: "Since this is the case, then I will immediately prepare to retreat."

Seeing this, Kou Zhong left Yangzhou City with Xu Ziling, and went to see Ruan Ruan again.

In the end, they made an agreement with Ruan Ruan that they could give Xu Jingye's army half a day to prepare from the moment Xu Jingye's army first withdrew from Yangzhou City.

After half a day, they will launch an attack on Xu Jingye's army.

Kou Zhong, as a former young marshal, knows how important time is in war.

It is not a loss for Xu Jingye's army to give up Yangzhou City in exchange for half a day.

With Xu Jingye's leadership ability, half a day is enough for him to do many things.

……

Just when Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling resolved the Yangzhou matter.

Wu Zhao is also actively mobilizing troops.

Li Xiaoyi lost nearly 300,000 troops on the north bank of the Yangtze River.

Now Qiu Shenji has more than 20 troops under his command.

In addition, God City still needs a large number of defenders.

She no longer has many troops to mobilize.

Therefore, the only thing she can mobilize this time is the [-] imperial guards!
Fortunately, her plan to attack Chang'an City did not require too many troops, otherwise the five thousand imperial guards would not be enough, and they would be wiped out in one battle.

in the military camp.

Standing on the troop counting platform, Wu Zhao looked at the [-] heavily armed imperial guards standing in the school grounds, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

These five thousand imperial guards are responsible for guarding the safety of Ziwei City. They are the elite of the elite and also the face of the Great Zhou Emperor.

Using these [-] imperial guards to conduct a personal conquest would not be regarded as humiliating the status of the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"The army moves out!"

Following Wu Zhao's order, the army immediately moved closely.

Because Wu Zhao didn't intend to fight a protracted war, they only brought about seven days' worth of rations.

Except for the round trip, Chang'an must be breached within three days, otherwise they will return without success.

When the time comes, she, the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty who was personally conscripted by the emperor, will probably become the laughing stock of the world!

The news of the Great Zhou Emperor's personal conquest spread quickly among the gods.

Countless people came here admiringly, wanting to witness this grand event with their own eyes.

When they saw the well-equipped imperial guards, everyone sighed.

Leaving aside the fighting ability of the imperial guards, this outfit and momentum are really impressive, it looks like an elite army.

Just when everyone was wondering how long it would take for Wu Zhao to break through Chang'an City, Lu Yan was drinking leisurely.

Because he knew that with Yuan Tiangang around, there was a high probability that Wu Zhao would return without success this time.

Xie Zhuoyan came back from the street and said to Lu Yan, "I saw that Wu Zhao only brought five thousand imperial guards with him this time."

Lu Yan ate a peanut and said, "If I were Li Fan, I would give her a surprise attack after hearing about Wu Zhao Yujia's personal conquest, and use cavalry to detour and raid the capital of God."

Xie Zhuoyan frowned and said, "But there are still a lot of defenders in Shendu. If it's just cavalry, I'm afraid they won't be able to attack."

Lu Yan chuckled and said, "I didn't say that we must attack the capital of God, but I just wanted to scare Wu Zhao and disturb Wu Zhao's military spirit."

Of course, it is difficult for cavalry to attack the city.

But the deterrence is more or less there.

In case someone colludes from inside and outside to open the city gate, it is not impossible for the capital of God to fall.

Wu Zhao sits in Shendu, although it is said that he manages Shendu like an iron bucket.

But once Wu Zhao leaves the capital, the capital will lose its backbone, and there will be a gap for people to take advantage of.

Wu Zhao must have thought of this.

For Wu Zhao, ten Chang'an cities may not necessarily have one god.

So if an enemy army disturbs Shendu, Wu Zhao's army will definitely be shaken.

At that time, it is quite good to be able to exert [-]% to [-]% of [-]% of the power.

Moreover, Lu Yan could guess that the reason why Wu Zhao only brought five thousand imperial guards was probably because he wanted to forcibly break through the city with his own power of heaven and man.

Without Yuan Tiangang, the probability of Wu Zhao succeeding is at least 90.00%.

But since Yuan Tiangang had already gone to Chang'an, it would be very difficult for Wu Zhao to get any advantage from Yuan Tiangang.

However, all of this is his guess, and what the result will be depends on the specific situation at the time.

……

Chang'an City.

The news of Li Yuanba's death spread for several days, and finally reached the city of Chang'an.

When Li Fan heard the news of Li Yuanba's death, his heart was so sad that he almost fainted from crying.

If it wasn't for everyone's persuasion to comfort Li Fan and let Li Fan put the overall situation first, I'm afraid Li Fan would continue to cry.

This is not Li Fan's acting.

But Li Yuanba is really important to their Li family.

The death of Li Yuanba was an extremely heavy blow to their Li family.

Whether it's because of the family relationship between the two, or because of Li's future, Li Fan's sadness is inevitable.

It is also fortunate that Yuan Tiangang came to Chang'an.

Otherwise, Li Fan might really feel that the sky is falling.

In the imperial study.

Li Fan with a gloomy expression sat on the dragon chair.

Yuan Tiangang, who was wearing a purple suit, was sitting aside, reading a book calmly.

Yuan Tiangang knew the news of Li Yuanba's death a long time ago, so he was not surprised or sad at this time.

And if it wasn't because of Li Yuanba's death, he might not have come out of the mountain.

"King Zhao died, and Tang felt as if his arm had been broken. My heart aches."

Li Fan let out a long sigh, and had no intention of reviewing the memorial at all.

Yuan Tiangang heard Li Fan's words and said: "Your Majesty, the matter of King Zhao can be put aside for now, and there is a more important matter to be resolved immediately."

Hearing this, Li Fan asked, "What's the matter?"

Yuan Tiangang said: "Wu Zhao, the Son of Heaven of the Great Zhou Dynasty, has set out from the capital of God, and is coming to Chang'an City, and his troops will come to the city soon."

Li Fan was taken aback, and quickly asked, "When did this happen?"

Yuan Tiangang replied: "Not long ago."

Yuan Tiangang, as the master of the Great Tang Dynasty and the supervisor of the Huntian Overwatch Council, may not be particularly powerful in martial arts among heavenly beings, but he is unsurpassed in astrology and divination.

So it was not unusual for him to be able to learn about Wu Zhao Yujia's personal conquest from hundreds of miles away.

Li Fan heard the words and immediately said: "I will immediately invite all the generals to come over and discuss major issues together!"

Yuan Tiangang shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, if you want to block Wu Zhao, ordinary methods will not work."
