Mountains have trees and trees have branches

Chapter 160 The thief shouts to catch the thief
Yu Tingen surrounded Linze City on the grounds that Mu Xiliang had selfish intentions and deliberately sabotaged the cooperation between the North and the South.

The accompanying officers all became nervous.

Everyone inside and outside the city didn't know that Linze City's defenses were deployed at this time. Except for the guards brought by Mu Xiliang, there were only ordinary people left in the city.

But Mu Xiliang looked calm.

"Governor Yu, do I have selfish intentions? It doesn't matter what you say, and you don't believe what I say. You said I sabotaged the cooperation between the North and the South. I think you came to this conclusion a little early. Let's wait until the representative of the Southern Court comes. Let’s make a conclusion.” After a pause, he said with a slight smile, “I believe that the representatives of the Southern Department are the safest with the Overseer guarding outside the city, right?”

Yu Tingen didn't speak.

He looked left and right, smiled sullenly towards the top of the city, and put away the gun in his hand casually.

"Yes, Mu Xiliang, I will keep you for one more day. If the representative of the Southern Department does not arrive before noon tomorrow, don't blame me for being merciless!"

Ding Heqiao brought supper, and Mu Xiliang stood in front of the window quietly watching the moonlight outside the window.Ding Heqiao put the supper on the table, walked over and said softly, "Master, you didn't eat lunch, I asked the kitchen to make some small glutinous rice balls, you can eat some."

Mu Xiliang was silent for a while, then turned around and walked back to the table, obediently finished eating the glutinous rice balls.

After eating, Ding Heqiao took away the bowls and chopsticks, thought for a while, and whispered, "Young Master, tell me, can Miss Qing Huan come back tomorrow?"

Mu Xiliang looked up at him, "Why, you are worried."

Ding Heqiao laughed, "Yu Tingen obviously came prepared. If Miss Qing Huan hadn't discovered the secret of Baiyun Temple, maybe we would have to fight to the death here. I tried it just now, and all our external communication lines have been blocked. Cut it off, Yu Tingen concluded that the representative of the Southern Department will not be able to make it at noon tomorrow."

Mu Xiliang squinted his eyes and clasped his hands on his chin.

Of course he knew that Yu Tingen had come prepared, Ding Heqiao was right, if it wasn't for Qing Huan, they would have been in a bit of trouble this time.

"Have you done all the defenses I asked you to do?"

Ding Heqiao nodded and said, "Don't worry, we are from this background. The guards you brought this time are also the most elite troops in our regiment. If he wants to attack Yu Tingen, he has to look at the hands of the brothers." Do you agree with the gun!"

"That's it," Mu Xiliang sighed, "Dad, I believe he has already started to deal with it, Yu Tingen is so blatant, trying to pin all the crimes on me and kill me logically. I want to see who died in the end!"

With these words, Ding Heqiao was suddenly excited.

Since he followed Mu Xiliang, he has never encountered a war.

Even if there is no Miss Qing Huan today, it is not certain who will win.

"Go and instruct your people to keep only a small number of people defending the fortresses tonight, and the rest of them should sleep well. After they sleep enough, they will have the strength to kill people tomorrow. I bet Yu Tingen won't do anything tonight, I think, no matter how anxious he is, he will have to get through this night."

Mu Xiliang had almost no dreams that night.

When it was almost dawn, he woke up suddenly, went to the window and looked, the outside was still surrounded by groups, and Yu Tingen's soldiers and horses had already started to walk back and forth outside the city.

He got up casually, and ordered the kitchen to prepare breakfast for everyone. When everything was done, it was past nine o'clock, and the sun was already high.

Someone kept telling him what was going on outside.

Yu Tingen's machine gunners had already occupied the favorable terrain outside the city, and it seemed that the main attackers in the front row had already been prepared.

As long as the time is up, all arrows will be fired.

Vaguely, Ding Heqiao even detected the existence of the artillery regiment.

Yu Tingen is determined to put him to death.

Mu Xiliang leaned back on the chair, silently looking at the ceiling.

He believed in Qing Huan's ability and there would be no accidents.

But because of the presence of Mrs. He, he had to be fully prepared.

After being silent for a long time, he got up and prepared his guns, and confirmed the surrounding city defense map again, making sure that his defense was flawless and could withstand at least two days.

Time passed by every minute and every second.

Different from the imminent outbreak outside the city, the city began to make preparations in an orderly manner at this time.

Even the guards placed on the city wall last night were withdrawn at this time.

The sound of drum music gradually came from the city.

Yu Tingen wondered why Mu Xiliang was so relaxed.

"Could it be that the plan has changed?"

The staff officer was a little impatient, Mu Xiliang's behavior was too abnormal.

"impossible!!"

If you can't even do this, then why are you fighting for power? ?
"Go ahead and pull the artillery regiment to the front. I heard that this little bastard, Mu Xiliang, is full of tricks. As soon as the time comes, let's strike first and blast his city gate to kill him. Even if there is a mistake there Well, the representative of the Southern Department has arrived as scheduled, let's just kill him, anyway, dead people can't speak."

Just as he was falling asleep, a messenger came outside and reported that there was movement at the city gate.

Yu Tingen hurried out of the tent to look, and found that the gate of Linze City had already been opened, and soldiers were laying out the red carpet in an orderly manner, preparing to welcome the representatives of the Southern Department.

In an instant, Yu Tingen lost his mind.

He didn't believe that a young boy with yellow hair who had never been on a battlefield could have such courage.

Could it be that there is fraud?

The staff officer next to him looked at his watch, it was already eleven fifty.

"Overseer, the time is almost up."

Yu Tingen stared at the empty city gate for a long time, and gritted his teeth.

"Everything is ready, proceed according to the original plan!!"

Twelve o'clock, coming soon.

But the official road was empty, and no one came.

A color flashed in Yu Tingen's eyes.

"Get ready to do it!"

Following his order, a row of mortars in front were ready, and the muzzles were aimed directly at the top of the city. The messengers had been watching Yu Tingen, waiting for his order.

But at this moment, there was only a bang, and the gunner in the middle jumped out suddenly. It turned out that he did not know where to shoot, and it happened to hit the front of the ammunition box behind him. There is no place to die if you want to die.

The gunner immediately fell to the ground.

Yu Tingen was about to have a seizure when he heard Mu Xiliang's voice on the city wall not far away.

"Inspector Yu, I advise you not to act without authorization."

Yu Tingen was startled, and instantly became angry from embarrassment.

"Mu Xiliang, you killed the representative of the South and deliberately sabotaged the cooperation between the North and the South. I have the right to shoot you on the spot!"

Mu Xiliang suddenly laughed.

"Then you try?"

There was wind and snow in his eyes, and all the snipers in the dark were waiting for his order.

Catch the thief first catch the king! !

Just at this critical moment.On the closed road behind him, there was a sudden sound.

Several cars came from afar.

First there were three cars, and then there were two large trucks loaded with soldiers with live ammunition.

When they arrived in front of the city, the soldiers on the truck got off quickly and surrounded the car. After that, many people got off the car one after another.

Yu Tingen saw it, and probably this is the representative of the south.

There was even a reporter with a camera.

The reporters slapped Yu Tingen's army fiercely, Mu Xiliang raised the corners of his lips and said "do it", and then a sniper shot Yu Tingen's thigh, Yu Tingen wailed and fell down , Yu Tingen's troops were in chaos in an instant.

But at this moment, Mu Xiliang's guards suddenly rushed out from all directions, and the leader shouted "Catch the traitor" and rushed towards Yu Tingen's troops.

Three hours later, Yu Tingen was captured alive, and all of Yu Tingen's hundreds of people were captured.

Mu Xiliang picked up the representative and went into the city. Since Yu Tingen had cut off Linze's external communication line in advance, Mu Xiliang had no choice but to use the portable radio of the representative of the Southern Department to ask for help;
And the representative of the southern department immediately reported to the southern court that someone in the northern court deliberately sabotaged the cooperation between the north and the south. If it wasn't for Mu Xiliang, they would have died in a foreign country.

It was originally a very common incident, but after just one day, it turned into a vicious diplomatic incident.

All the potentials are done enough.

Mu Xiliang finally came out of the room of the representative of the Southern Department.

When Ding Heqiao saw him, he immediately went up to meet him.

"Miss has quietly returned, don't worry."

Mu Xiliang felt relieved, "Those reporters and soldiers were all recruited by Qing Huan?"

"Yes, Miss said that to deal with this kind of villain, he must die in sight!"

Mu Xiliang smiled unconsciously, and said, "Then according to Miss's wishes, fax all the photos taken today to the major newspapers. I don't mind embarrassing Yu Tingen once."

If they had known before that this operation would never return, would Yu Tingen and the people behind him have taken so much trouble.

Yu Tingen was taken out of the bullet, so he was imprisoned. On the second day, the guards directly under the Northern Court came to escort Yu Tingen away.

As one of the parties involved, Mu Xiliang was also taken away.

When Mu Xiliang was taken away, Mu Zhonglin, who was far away in Huating, held a press conference overnight, denouncing his colleagues for destroying the righteousness of the country for small profits, making a fortune for the country, and disregarding the lives of the people;
He also said that he was very chilled, now that his son, daughter and wife were all detained, he wanted to disarm and return to the field, and he did not want to be with these people anymore.

As soon as the news came out, first of all, the people's opinions were boiling.

For the common people, as long as they live in peace and stability, war is a disaster for them;
And for the army under Mu Zhonglin, it is an insult to the general they are loyal to receive such unfair treatment!

As for the southern court, some people took the opportunity to jump up and down, saying that the northern court would destroy the peace and intend to make a northern expedition.

On the fifth day after this incident, students began to march in the streets, demanding that Yu Ting En's party be cut off, and calling for peace.

Things have developed to the present, and all the public opinion that should be and shouldn't be has been done enough. This scene has reached its climax.

If we go back to the beginning, no one would have thought that Mu Xiliang, who only had ninety guards in his hands, would capsize Yu Tingen's big ship.
