The battle was over, and the battle was over.

In Anshan City, Li Yichen began to reorganize the three armies, ready to attack at any time and fight with the Bandit Army.

At this time, Wei Dongsheng had already quietly left the Bandit Army's base and came to Linshan County.

In the Gu Mansion in Linshan County, Gu Yunxi changed into a white plain long dress and waited in the yard.

Today is the death anniversary of Gu Yunxi's father Gu Junting. Since Gu Yunxiao drifted to Linshan County, he built a tomb for his father in Yunlong Mountain, 20 miles outside the county. Every year on the death anniversary, the two siblings would go to worship.

Soon, Gu Yunxiao, who had just returned from the Taiping Army camp, changed into casual clothes and walked out.

"Sister, I have asked the maids in the mansion to prepare incense and candles as offerings. Let's set off now."

Gu Yunxi nodded, and the group left the mansion. Gu Yunxiao rode in front, and Gu Yunxi followed in a carriage, rushing to Gu Junting's tomb.

An hour later, the brother and sister came to the tomb, placed offerings, and lit incense and candles.

Gu Yunxi looked tearful, kneeling in front of the tomb and sobbing, recalling the happy scenes of the family in the past, but now they are separated forever.

Gu Yunxiao knelt aside, kowtowed three times, and said with red eyes: "Dad, I am unfilial and have violated your wishes. Now I have joined the Qin Army. However, in this Beiting Dynasty, there is no place for loyal ministers and good generals. My blind tolerance has resulted in exile to Linshan County, where I have been demoted three levels."

"After arriving in Linshan County, I found that even a small county magistrate would oppress the people unscrupulously on weekdays. This rotten Beiting made me see no hope. I had no choice but to join the Qin Army. Please forgive me, father..."

Just as Gu Yunxiao was chattering, a deep male voice came from the woods not far from the cemetery: "Since you know that your father's expectation of you is to serve the court, why did you turn to the rebels and ruin the reputation of your Gu family!"

Gu Yunxiao turned his head suddenly and saw a middle-aged man with a sword on his waist walking slowly out of the woods.

This man is the commander of the Bandit Suppression Army, Wei Dongsheng.

Gu Yunxiao knew Wei Dongsheng, and his father was also one of the great generals of the court. Although he did not have much interaction with Wei Dongsheng, Gu Yunxiao had served as a general in the Dingbei Army and was very familiar with Wei Dongsheng, the commander of the Dingbei Army.

After Gu Yunxiao saw clearly that the person coming was Wei Dongsheng, he immediately protected Gu Yunxi behind him and looked at Wei Dongsheng with a vigilant face and said: "General Wei, you should be in the Bandit Suppression Army camp at this time, how come you are here."

Wei Dongsheng had a blank expression and said straight to the point: "I came to see you specifically. Why, you were once a general under my command, so you don't need to be so defensive against me."

Gu Yunxiao said coldly: "People with different ideologies cannot work together. Now General Wei is the commander of the Bandit Suppression Army of the court, and he was ordered to come and destroy our Qin Army. The two of us People have different positions, so how can there be any old friendship? You came here alone, aren't you afraid that I will capture you on the spot? "

"Since I dare to come here, I am not afraid that you will attack me. As for the purpose of my coming here, it is to make you turn back from the wrong path, stop before it is too late, and don't make the same mistake again!"

Wei Dongsheng's voice was still unhurried: "Your Gu family's ancestors for three generations were all generals in the court. You are a descendant of my Beiting generals, but you actually defected to the Qin army bandits and disgraced your ancestors for no reason. Are you worthy of your ancestors of the Gu family?"

Gu Yun Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "You don't need to teach me a lesson. Yes, my ancestors for three generations were all great generals of Beiting, and they never failed the court. The Gu family is full of loyal heroes, and many people have sacrificed for Beiting, but what happened to us! My father was framed by the Grand Tutor's party for colluding with foreign enemies. He was full of passion for serving the country, but he was stripped of his military power and stayed at home, where he died in depression."

"Just because I didn't want to be in cahoots with the flatterers in the court, I, Gu Yunxiao, was repeatedly excluded and transferred to a remote county in Mozhou to serve as a small lieutenant. What right do you have to blame me? "

Wei Dongsheng shook his head and said, "You are wrong. I also know that there are countless treacherous ministers in the court who deceive the emperor, but this is not a reason for you to betray the court. As a general, you should be loyal to the emperor and love the country. Even if there are treacherous ministers in power, you should take it step by step to rectify the country's principles, rather than betray the court in a moment of anger. "

Gu Yunxiao said with a firm look: "Needless to say, I, Gu Yunxiao, will not regret the path I chose. I guess you came here today just to make me return to the court and betray the Qin army. I, Gu Yunxiao, am a man who stands tall and upright.

I would rather die than be a slave to three families!"

Wei Dongsheng sighed and said, "I came here to persuade you because you are a descendant of a general and understand reason, but I never thought you would still be stubborn."

Wei Dongsheng's eyes showed a trace of murderous intent: "I will give you another chance. As long as you are willing to return to the court and cooperate with the bandit-suppressing army to take down Linshan County, I guarantee that the court will no longer pursue the mistakes you made before. After taking down the Qin army this time, I will personally recommend you as the commander of the imperial army. You will rise to prominence in the future and help your Gu family revive the family."

Gu Yunxiao looked at Wei Dongsheng with disdain and was too lazy to talk nonsense, but he also knew that Wei Dongsheng's strength was terrifying and he was definitely not his opponent.

Gu Yunxiao turned around and told several trusted followers, "I will hold him back, and you will take my sister away quickly. Once you reach the county military camp, you will be safe. "

After Gu Yunxiao finished speaking, he rushed towards Wei Dongsheng with his bare hands.

Since he was paying respects to his relatives today, Gu Yunxiao did not bring any weapons.

Wei Dongsheng said coldly: "You are such a stubborn boy. You are only in the late stage of the martial arts master realm. Do you think you are my opponent? "

Gu Yunxiao did not answer, but punched Wei Dongsheng in the face. Wei Dongsheng just turned slightly to avoid the blow, then raised his left foot and stomped on the ground. A visible aura wave spread out from Wei Dongsheng.

Gu Yunxiao was knocked out by the fierce aura and fell heavily to the ground, with a look of horror on his face.

One of them was in the late stage of the martial artist realm, and the other was at the peak of the martial king realm. The gap was too huge. Gu Yunxiao's attack on Wei Dongsheng was like hitting a rock with an egg.

Wei Dongsheng shook his head and said, "You are gifted and talented, but it's a pity that you are too young. Maybe when you are my age, you will not be able to fight me. But now, I can kill you in an instant. "

Wei Dongsheng clapped his hands, and saw several black-armored soldiers holding long swords, escorting Gu Yunxi out. Just now, Gu Yunxiao asked his followers to take Gu Yunxi away first, but they were blocked by Wei Dong's personal soldiers before they walked far.

After a fight, Gu Yunxi was successfully held hostage.

Gu Yunxiao shouted angrily, slapped the ground and rushed towards his sister. In his eyes, Gu Yunxi was his Achilles' heel.

However, Wei Dongsheng was like lightning, intercepting in front of Gu Yunxiao, and with a lightning-fast dragon-catching hand, he tightly strangled Gu Yunxiao's neck. As long as he exerted a little force, he could end Gu Yunxiao's life.
