"What song?" Emily was taken aback for a moment—this Lord Li, who was still scratching his head just now, why is he listening to the song now?

"Pipa music." Li Yi smiled, pointed to the pipa hanging obliquely on the table by the wall, and said with a relaxed expression: "Ambush from all sides."

"Ok!"

Emily nodded lightly. She was as intelligent as she was, and seemed to sense that something was about to happen. She stood up lightly, walked lightly with lotus steps, walked to the wall, picked up the lute, and gently wiped it with her hands. Remove the thin floating ash on it, and then sit in front of the small table with your pipa in your arms.

"Boom-thump-"

The rapid sound of the pipa sounded, and Li Yi walked straight to the railing. He put his hands on the wooden railing and looked out.

It is already late at night, and the crescent moon in the sky is covered by gently curling clouds, like a shy woman waving a gauze to cover her cheeks, or like a scimitar that has just been unsheathed, holding The sharp and unparalleled cold light just chopped off a strand of the enemy's hair.

There are occasional lights in the city. In the dark night, there are hazy yellow light spots, like fireflies.

The crowing of chickens and the barking of dogs, accompanied by the whirring wind of the river, poured into Li Yi's ears. He suddenly saw a little spark, then smiled, sat on the small table by the terrace, picked up a jug of wine, and poured himself a glass.

Wu Xiaoming, who had been standing quietly outside the door, heard the sound of the pipa from inside the room, patted the dust on his body that was not there before, looked up at the waning moon outside the window, and limped on the railing Go downstairs.

His right hand was always attached to the railing of the building, as if he was sensing the delicate texture of the wood used to make the railing. Soon he reached the first floor, Song Beikui nodded to him, and let out the door.

"Wow--" The door slowly opened, and the bright white moonlight poured in like splashing water.

Wu Xiaoming flicked his long sleeves, and just walked into the moonlight in a carefree manner.

"boom--"

"Boom-"

Outside the south gate of Jinling City, there was a sudden muffled sound, followed by dots of fire, forming a long line on the official road at night.

A few soldiers guarding the city leaned against the stone building on the city wall, chatting with each other boredly.

The thunderous sound attracted their attention.

"It was fine just now, why is it thundering now?" A soldier stretched his waist and yawned and said, "I'm retiring tomorrow, so I have to gamble a couple of games and then go back and buy some money." Five acres of land, marry a beautiful daughter-in-law..."

"Tch, with your ugly looks, who wants to marry you!" Another soldier sarcastically said dismissively.

The soldier who was about to marry a wife was immediately dissatisfied. He raised his eyebrows and frowned, "Why am I marrying a wife! What's wrong with my appearance!"

"Stop making trouble!" A burly man in general armor listened for a moment, then frowned suddenly, stood up abruptly, and said coldly, "Someone is coming!"

"Boom, boom, boom..."

It is difficult for a horse's hooves to make such a deafening and thunderous sound, but when two hundred horses are galloping together in the dark night, the sound is like a muffled thunder in the sky, attracting people's attention.

This is a well-trained cavalry, a well-trained cavalry that has been calm and unruffled for hundreds of miles.

The first rider was wearing a book long shirt. Even on the bumpy horseback, he still looked indifferent. Only a pair of eagle-like eyes could see the majestic spirit under his plain attire.

Behind him are four burly knights. Each of these four knights is tied up with a man wearing a white nightgown. The four men's mouths are tightly stuffed with rough cloth. Make a whining sound.

He was Wang Yupeng. After receiving the letter from Fei Ge, they went to three counties and towns, captured four officials on the list in a row, and finally arrived at Jinling at the appointed time.

In the distance, the city wall of Jinling could already be seen, and the scattered flames on the wall, Wang Yupeng raised his hand.

"Hey——"

Behind him, hundreds of horses stood up together.

"Aren't you here yet?" Wang Yupeng frowned, seemingly dissatisfied.

As soon as he finished speaking, the knight beside him jumped off his horse in an instant, lying on the ground with his right ear pressed to the ground, and closed his eyes to listen.

After a while, the knight stood up, raised his hand and said in a deep voice, "Here we come, a total of sixteen riders."

"Damn the four horses?" Wang Yupeng frowned even tighter. He shook his head dissatisfied and sat on the horse without saying a word.

After a stick of incense, there was indeed a faint sound of horseshoes coming from the west.

Wang Yupeng raised his eyes and saw a pair of cavalry, without lighting the torches, galloping in formation on the official road.

The opponent's horsepower is obviously not weak, and the distance of [-] meters is reached in an instant.

"Hey——"

A rider stood up first, stopped the horse, then turned over and got off the horse, knelt down on one knee, clasped fists with both hands, and said to Wang Yupeng: "General, the six people have been brought here."

"Why did only sixteen riders come?" Wang Yupeng raised his whip, signaling the other party to stand up.

The knight stood up, and only by the light of the fire could he see an arrow stuck in his shoulder.

At this moment, he seemed a little regretful, and sighed, "We rushed into the Chuzhou mansion, only to find that the other party got the news from nowhere and was ambushed."

"Snapped--"

As soon as the knight's words fell, a black whip shadow instantly hit his face.

The long whip fell, and a whip mark overflowing with blood stretched directly from the knight's eyebrows to the corner of his lips.

"It's a matter here, and you can take the blame yourself." Wang Yupeng put down the whip in his hand, his voice was cold.

"Yes!" The knight cupped his hands, got on his horse, and then guided the cavalry behind him into the group.

Wang Yupeng raised his head, looked at the moon in the sky, raised his hand, then pressed it down, and said with a half-smile, "Let's go, enter the city."

"boom--"

The dense torches, on the dark official road at night, slammed into the huge, silent and pitch-black Jinling like a fire dragon.

"coming!"

All the commanders on the city wall stared coldly at the approaching fire dragon in front of him. When he raised his hand, the crossbowman beside him lay down on the city wall, staring vigilantly at the mysterious visitor who was approaching below. up.

After a short while, a group of well-dressed cavalry arrived under the city wall and lined up outside the moat.

All the cavalry were silent, but the dull momentum of the two hundred fine cavalry made everyone on the city wall feel the pressure as if they were facing thousands of troops.

This is something that can only be condensed after countless fights on the battlefield. It is called a military soul.

"Who is coming?"

The guard on the city gate raised the torch in his hand, faced the many cavalry below the city wall, and shouted loudly.

"Tianwei Army, Xiaoqi Battalion, Wang Yupeng." A scholar who immediately stood in front of the cavalry array raised his head and said in a long voice.
