Yu Jun

Zhang Chongfeng was already on guard when Wu Jin opened his mouth. After listening to his words, he kept thinking about the words to respond, and at the same time secretly thought it was a pity that such a person should be exiled here.

He shook his head and said: "I have to do it, but I really can't. I'm just here to convey the order, and I'm not involved in political affairs. I don't know how to arrange the redundant troops. It's better for Magistrate Wu to directly submit a letter to His Majesty."

Wu Jin said with a smile: "Your Majesty has decreed that Kuanzhou should be treated favorably. If I submit a memorial and other states learn about it, it will ruin your Majesty's good intentions. It is better for Zhang Chongfeng to convey it on your behalf. We will wait for His Majesty's decree in Kuanzhou."

"It takes time to come and go..." Zhang Gongfeng immediately understood that Wu Jin wanted to delay the elimination of redundant troops - Wu Jin was well versed in the methods of the court. As long as he had the courage to burn the boat, he could delay big things and small things.

He was no match for Wu Jin. He pursed his lips and made a meaningless smile. He picked up the tea cup, opened the lid, put it to his mouth and gently blew the hot air away. When he was about to drink, there was a loud "bang" sound. It was like thunder exploding, shattering the ice and snow.

The tea cup in his hand shook violently, and the tea soup splashed all over his chest.

Mo Lingfeng, who had been motionless just now, suddenly stood up with a serious look on his face. At the same time, there was a "crash" outside the house. The guards lined up from both sides of the front yard, their armor flapping.

The guards stood in pairs, their feet stamped with murderous intent, and the entire Hou Mansion became silent.

Zhang Gongfeng hurriedly put down the tea cup, took out the handkerchief and wiped it. When he saw Wu Jin and Hou Fuzhong standing up with solemn expressions, he also stood up.

He looked at Mo Lingfeng who was walking to the door, his heart pounding: "What happened?"

Hou Fuzhong whispered: "It should be a surprise attack by Jin Lu, who used gunpowder."

Mo Lingfeng, who had already stepped out of the threshold with one foot, suddenly turned around and walked towards Zhang Chongfeng. With an expressionless face, he grabbed Zhang Chongfeng's arm and pulled him forward with force, dragging him out of the house: "Zhang Chongfeng belongs to your Majesty." With eyes and mouthpiece, Zhang Chongfeng can tell if there are any useless soldiers in Kuanzhou at a glance."

Hou Fu stretched out his hand anxiously and shouted: "General Mo——"

Wu Jin gently pressed Hou Fuzhong's hand and said with a pleasant expression: "The noble man has dragon energy to protect his body, so there is no need to worry."

Hou Fuzhong was stunned and thought: "How can the dragon take care of things here when he is thousands of miles away?"

Mo Lingfeng dragged Zhang Chongfeng to the door and pushed forward hard. Zhang Chongfeng tripped on the threshold and fell down.

However, he did not fall down, because Yin Nan took action, grabbed the clothes at the back of his neck, lifted him up, and dragged him out.

Zhang Gongfeng shouted anxiously: "Wait, wait, wait"

No one was waiting, and black smoke was billowing in the sky. Mo Lingfeng walked straight out of the gate of the Hou Mansion, got on his horse, and his guards also mounted their horses neatly. Yin Nan pushed Zhang Zongfeng up, then jumped up, sat down behind Zhang Zongfeng, and stretched out his arms. With long arms, one hand held the bridle and the other held a whip. Mo Lingfeng whipped the horse in front of him, and everyone behind him also galloped.

People are good at riding, and horses are also fast. Zhang Fengfeng sat on the horse, feeling that all the flesh in his body was shaking in the wind. Mo Lingfeng's soap-colored cloak in front of him had been blown into giant wings by the wind.

The street scene surprised him even more.

There were people coming and going on the streets at noon, but no one panicked. Instead, they quickly got out of the way - as if war had become a commonplace in their lives, and they seemed to trust that the fortress would keep them safe.

The horse galloped forward. Zhang Gongfeng smelled the smell of gunpowder smoke. He was shivering from the cold and his eyes were black. He had left the safe enough Kuanzhou City and entered the desolate wilderness through the city gate.

The suspension bridge was lowered with a rumble, and snowflakes filled the sky. The horses' hooves stepped onto the bridge without any hesitation. Flags were hunting on the high wall, and the killing cries were deafening. For a moment, he almost felt the flags on the high wall slap on his face.

The war horses ran across the suspension bridge, and the soldiers pulled the iron chain and retracted the suspension bridge. As soon as they entered the fort, Zhang Gongfeng immediately saw the continuous army phalanx here. The war horses neighed, and the army solemnly waited for the general's orders. The nomadic minister was riding on the horse, holding a flag in his hand. The word "Mo" on the flag fluttered in the wind, and opposite to this solemnity were the sounds of attack and defense on the tower. The Nomadic Minister turned over and dismounted, and immediately the commander and commander dismounted. He raised his hands and saluted: "General!"

The Nomad Qing immediately shouted: "General! There are nearly [-] golden captives, come with artillery!"

He glanced at Zhang Chongfeng, whose legs were trembling, as if he were looking at a dead person.

Mo Lingfeng folded the riding crop in half and clapped his palms: "Soldiers, listen -"

Her voice became clearer and louder, spreading out layer by layer.

"Your Majesty wants to eliminate those who are over [-] and those who are weak in the army to replenish the national coffers!"

She pointed her riding whip at Zhang Chong, who was restrained by Yin Nan on his horse, and said, "Your Majesty's envoy is here. All the soldiers will show their skills and let the envoy know that there are no redundant troops in Kuanzhou!"

The soldiers were just quiet, but after hearing Mo Lingfeng's voice, they suddenly became energetic. They stared at Zhang Chongfeng and shouted in unison: "Yes!"

This wave almost overturned Zhang Gongfeng.

Mo Lingfeng held up his riding whip and said: "One head will be rewarded with three taels of silver. When you return from victory, each camp will be rewarded with three hundred taels, a hundred catties of rice wine, and a yellow sheep!"

Without waiting for the soldiers to cheer, she immediately issued a military order: "The soldiers at the top of the city retreated from the crenellations of the female wall. Chang Long and Zhong Tao led [-] infantry to the top of the city. With the spear in front, the swordsman in front, and the archers in the end, the golden captives climbed up the ladder on the city wall. When the time comes, give him a severe blow."

"Yes."

Chang Long and Zhong Tao each took their military flags, turned their horses, and headed straight for the city.

"Sheng Nan, Lord Nomad, led five thousand cavalry at the city gate. When the golden captives ascended the city tower, they opened the door and launched a surprise attack."

"Yes."

Sheng and You took the order and left. Mo Lingfeng looked at Yin Nan: "Yin Nan, Dou Lanhua, take the imperial envoy and a hundred elite soldiers with me to Sanchuan Village to ambush."

"Yes."

Mo Lingfeng rode his horse to the middle tent, dismounted, quickly entered the middle tent, took off his cloak, put on his iron armor, put on his hood, slung his long sword, and then rode his horse to the west gate.

Zhang Chongfeng was riding on a horse without any armor, listening to the "bang bang" sound of the ladder placed on the city wall, charging the city gate with a siege ram, and the city gate shook. The distant killing cry was like thunder, but he didn't hear it. The armor can resist, and the face is as pale as dust in shock.

He turned to look at the cold Yin Nan behind him, and looked at Mo Lingfeng tremblingly: "General Mo...I will tell His Majesty...let me go quickly..."

Mo Lingfeng turned a deaf ear and gave an order. The city gate suddenly opened, and the horses overturned the chariots. The soldiers rushed out and fought hard.

On the top of the city, people kept falling to the ground, making shocking screams. The cavalry led by Sheng Nan and Nomad Qing rushed into the city and killed them unexpectedly. However, Mo Lingfeng, an elite soldier, took advantage of the chaos and ran west towards Sanchuan Village. .

The cold wind mixed with the oil fire falling from the tower, raging aimlessly, and the swords and guns had no eyes. A crossbow arrow came from nowhere, and passed over the top of Zhang Zongfeng's head, knocking the bun off his head, and his bun was instantly scattered. There was a sharp pain in his scalp, and blood slid down his forehead to the tip of his nose. (End of chapter)
