Yao Wenyuan sneered and said: "My lord governor, are you still dreaming about the dream of returning to Tianshan? In the battle at the racecourse, Tianshan had already lost completely, and you only thought you were defeated at the racecourse? Do you know that Mingsha City has already been captured by the Northwest Army?" It is not only Mingsha City, but Shazhou City has also become in the hands of the Northwest Army, and the two prefectures of Tianshan and Dao have already fallen into the hands of the Northwest Army."

"Northwest Army?" Zhu Lingyue's face was pale, and he couldn't believe it: "It's absolutely impossible, Northwest Army...!" Suddenly his body shook, as if thinking of something, he lost his voice: "Huichuan...!"

"So you still remember." Yao Wenyuan sighed: "My lord governor, you are considered a shrewd half-life, but in the end you were ruthlessly tricked by Gan Hou. You will never recover from this trap. What is the emergency of Sichuan? You have been fooled by Marquis Gan to send more troops to the rescue, do you really think that those 5000 troops are rushing to fight Fang Rushui's Jinzhou soldiers?"

Zhu Lingyue was completely disheartened, and laughed back in anger: "So that's the case, hahaha, what a lord, it turns out that the governor was plotted in this way."

Yao Wenyuan said: "His 7000 soldiers are going to join Huichuan's soldiers and horses. Huichuan already has 4000 Northwest troops, plus Chang Huan's so-called reinforcements, that is [-] people, and Fang Rusai still has [-] soldiers. People, this adds up to more than ten thousand troops. We are fighting bloody here, and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses circled from the west and entered the Tianshan Mountains quietly."

"All the roads in the Tianshan Mountains are strictly guarded by the governor. How did they get through the narrow roads?"

"It's not thanks to you." Yao Wenyuan sneered: "I heard them say that the Northwest Army was carrying the banner of Marquis Gan and you, saying that the Beishan Army wanted to take advantage of it, so they sent them to Tianshan for reinforcements. Everyone knows that the Northwest Army and the Tianshan Army have already formed an alliance, even if the officers and soldiers everywhere have doubts in their hearts, how dare they stop them?"

Zhu Lingyue let out a long sigh, and closed his eyes, "Forget it, this governor has calculated half his life, but in the end he was calculated by others. Yao Wenyuan, this governor has taken you well, but I didn't expect you to be a sinister and cunning villain, but this governor does not blame you." , The tree fell and the monkeys scattered, you want the head of the governor to seek wealth, and the governor will fulfill you, but it is a pity that the governor died under the sword of a person like you, it is really unwilling."

Yao Wenyuan thought of Huang Zhu and the others behind Zhu Lingyue and said in a deep voice: "Tianshan has fallen, and today's defeat is due to Zhu Lingyue's stupidity. Now, you still want to protect him? Bind Zhu Lingyue with me and hand him over to him." People from Xiguan, everyone has a reward, otherwise...!" A coldness rose in his eyes, "You all will be buried with Zhu Lingyue...!"

Huang Zhu and the others looked at each other, and Yao Wenyuan shouted in a deep voice, "Come here, tie Zhu Lingyue up...!"

Someone behind him was about to come forward, but at this moment, there was a sound of "咻". Before everyone could react, a sharp arrow suddenly struck in the darkness, and Yao Wenyuan didn't make any reaction at all. The sharp arrow had been shot from the back of his head, piercing his head, Zhu Lingyue was shocked, Yao Wenyuan's eyes burst out, his body swayed, the hand holding the knife loosened, and the big knife holding Zhu Lingyue's neck fell to the ground.

When the arrow came suddenly, everyone was terrified. Huang Zhu and others had already taken the opportunity to protect Zhu Lingyue, but Yao Wenyuan's subordinates were all holding their swords tightly, looking around, all of them pale, and in the darkness, they could hear The sound of "whoosh whoosh" was heard, not only arrows, but also hidden weapons such as sleeve darts, barbed caltrops, throwing knives, etc., almost without exception. Most of the subordinates had been killed in an instant.

In the dark night, I saw five or six figures appearing like ghosts, like wolves in the dark. Under the moonlight, the weapons were different. They rushed forward and shot quickly. Yao Wenyuan's remaining subordinates, All of them collapsed in a moment, and none of them survived.

The night wind was bleak, and Zhu Lingyue's body was filled with a chill. Seeing these people as ghosts and ghosts, he couldn't guess the identity of each other for a while, but thought that they were probably soldiers sent by Chu Huan to chase and kill him.

Those five or six people beheaded the soldiers, and then put away their weapons, a tall and thin man in the middle had already stepped forward, with a kerchief covering his face, he was three steps away from Zhu Lingyue, stopped immediately, pulled off the kerchief, and cupped his hands respectfully He said: "Zhu Du is shocked, I have a lowly rank Gu Tingshou, pay my respects to Zhu Du!" He knelt down on one knee, and the four or five people behind him also knelt down.

Zhu Lingyue took advantage of the moonlight to see the man's face clearly, and said pleasantly, "Ting Shou, it's really you? You...why are you here?"

Gu Tingshou said respectfully: "I have been looking around for the past few days, I only hope to find Zhu Du's whereabouts, hard work pays off, I finally met Zhu Du."

Zhu Lingyue hurried forward, supported Gu Tingshou, and sighed: "After all, Tingshou is still loyal to the governor. If it weren't for you, the governor might...!"

Gu Tingshou said: "Bizhi has secretly discovered Yao Wenyuan and his group these few days. They are hiding around here, but they don't leave. I feel that something is wrong, and I didn't meet him. Unexpectedly...!" Glancing Yao Wenyuan's corpse, who fell on the ground, glanced, "I can't imagine that this person is so evil that he dares to murder Zhu Du."

Zhu Lingyue also glanced at the corpse, and said with a sneer: "If you do many injustices, you will kill yourself. Such a villain, don't mention it." Thinking of something, he asked anxiously: "Tingshou, Mingsha City... Mingsha City has really fallen. In the hands of the Northwest Army?"

Gu Tingshou looked sad, nodded and said: "Zhu Du, the Northwest Army entered Tianshan under the banner of Zhu Du. Just eight days ago, they suddenly came to Mingsha City, claiming that Beishan people took the opportunity to attack Tianshan. They are Under the order of Governor Zhu, I went to Tianshan for reinforcements. Even if the third master ordered the opening of the city gate, the humble official persuaded the third master not to let them enter the city easily, but the third master said that if the Northwest Army formed an alliance with Tianshan, if they were kept out , On the contrary, it will hurt the friendship, so...!" Sighed, although he didn't go on, Zhu Lingyue certainly understood the meaning of what happened next.

"It's the governor's fault." Zhu Lingyue sighed softly, "The governor should never have given Mingsha City to him...!"

"Zhu Du, the Northwest Army entered Mingsha City, immediately detained the third master, and quickly confiscated the weapons of the guards and soldiers, and took control of Mingsha City overnight." The people who hoe the treacherous hall are divided into two groups, one of which takes advantage of the chaos to leave the city, and wants to rush to Shazhou City as soon as possible to inform the Shazhou officers and soldiers, and the other way is to stay in the city, hoping to find a chance to rescue the third master." After a pause, he smiled wryly. : "It's just that the Northwest Army had a plan long ago. They also divided their troops into two groups of 7000 people to enter Mingsha City, and another group of 5000 people to attack Shazhou City at the same time. I later learned that they sent some people to mix in in advance. After entering the city of Shazhou, and taking advantage of the darkness, they took advantage of the darkness to seize the west gate of Shazhou city. There are not many soldiers left behind in Shazhou city, and the defense of the west gate is the weakest. Moreover, no one thought that the Northwest Army would suddenly kill them, so When Mingsha City fell, Shazhou City also fell almost at the same time."

Zhu Lingyue sneered and said: "Ganhou really has a deep scheming mind, the soldiers sent to Shazhou City, he also knows to cooperate with the outside, but the soldiers and horses sent to Mingsha City, he dares to come directly to the city... Ting Shou, do you know why? ?”

"Humble job... I don't know the humble job!"

Zhu Lingyue said indifferently: "Know yourself and know the enemy, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. This governor is stupid. He thinks he knows everything about Marquis Gan, but in fact he doesn't know anything. On the contrary, Marquis Gan really knows everything about this governor. He knows about Mingsha City. I handed it over to Lao San, and I also know that Lao San is an incompetent person, so he won the gate of the city easily without bloodshed...!" He laughed angrily, "It's ridiculous that the governor thought that Tianshan Mountain was solid, but it was so vulnerable... !"

"Zhu Du, the matter has come to an end, we can only keep the green hills in order to make a comeback." Gu Tingshou said in a deep voice.

"Is there no news about the third child?" Zhu Lingyue asked, "Can you save the third child if you stay in the anti-traitor hall in the city?"

"Reporting to Governor Zhu, the Northwest Army is obviously well prepared. We sent people to search the city, but we couldn't even find out the whereabouts of the third master." Gu Tingshou blamed himself, "I'm incompetent in a lowly position, please punish him. "

Zhu Lingyue waved his hand, and said: "Even if his head was chopped off, it is his own fault, but those good hands in the anti-traitor hall, don't let him be lost in the hands of the enemy just because of rescuing him." Looking at the people behind Gu Tingshou, he asked Said: "Is this the horse in your hand?"

Gu Tingshou said respectfully: "Some members of the Anti-Crafting Hall were dispatched outside, and it was too late to rush back, while some stayed in the city, there is no news yet, these are the few remaining people around the humble staff, but they are also the elite of the Anti-Crafting Hall. "

Zhu Lingyue cupped his hands to those people and said, "Thank you for your hard work, the governor!"

Those few people bowed their hands and didn't say much.

"Mr. Zhu, if Mingsha City and Shazhou City are taken, I'm afraid it won't be long before all the prefectures and counties in Tianshan Mountain will be occupied by Chu Huan and Marquis Gan's troops." Gu Tingshou said with a solemn expression, "Now that the mountain is in chaos, the hearts of the people Panicked, some unscrupulous people have even taken the opportunity to make trouble, burned down the government office, killed the servants, this Mingsha city can no longer pass, Chang Huan has already posted a wanted order in Mingsha, saying it is...!" After a pause, But he didn't go on.

"Just say it." Zhu Lingyue said with a light smile, "For this sake, there is nothing the Governor can't accept."

"The arrest warrant said that Zhu Du was a rebel...a traitor who raised an army to rebel. If anyone captures Zhu Du, he will be rewarded with 500 taels, regardless of whether he lives or dies. He also said... that even if he can't capture Zhu Du , as long as you provide Zhu Du's whereabouts and confirm that it is true, you will be rewarded with a hundred taels...!"

"A reward of 500 taels?" Zhu Lingyue laughed and said, "It turns out that the governor is worth 500 taels of gold in their eyes." He stroked his beard and said, "This is what Marquis Gan has prepared a long time ago. If the battle at the horse farm is withdrawn, he will issue this arrest warrant in Tianshan, defeating my statement on the one hand, and damaging my morale in Tianshan on the other hand...!"

"Zhu Du, fortunately, when Beizhi left Mingsha City, he brought someone out with him." Gu Tingshou's eyes were cold, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Believe me, Zhu Du will definitely want to see him!" Putting his hand to his mouth , blew a loud whistle, and soon, from behind the haystack not far away, a big man pushed a person out.
