"How dare these big soldiers in Yunzhou rebel?"

The silver Gong raised his eyebrows and said, "what's the situation outside the city now?"

The soldiers came quickly, their lips were blue and purple, their mouths were dry, and their voices were hoarse: "the gate of the south city is closed..."

"don't worry, take a breath first!"

Hearing this, Xu Qi'an went downstairs and poured a cup of cold water for the soldiers.

The soldiers rushed by and felt much more comfortable when they finished drinking. He looked at Xu Qi'an gratefully and spoke quickly:

"the Department of health has assembled three thousand troops, just outside the south gate. Xu Huchen, the commander of the guard office, threatened that if the governor doesn't release all the commanders in half an hour, he will give them an explanation, then he will enter the city!"

Military advice!

Xu Qi'an, who is familiar with history, is the first to flash this word in his mind. The so-called military admonition is to persuade the monarch or his elders to obey by force.

In short, it's about punching you into submission.

The difference between military remonstration and coup is that the purpose is different, but the behavior is the same. Xu Qian's two most impressive military remonstrations were the death of Yang Yuhuan in maweipo and the young commander's taking out a small pistol and slapping old Jiang.

These two military remonstrations were both successful, one changed the future of the Tang Dynasty and the other changed the future of China.

However, military admonishment is a dead admonishment. No one will use it.

"You're so bold!"

Several silver gongs who came to check asked about the situation, and they were angry.

This kind of thing can't be seen in the capital. At first hearing the news, their surprise and anger can't be expressed.

"The governor has gone to command the envoys. It's impossible to get to Nancheng in half an hour." A silver Gong pressed the handle of the knife and said in a deep voice:

"how many people are there in the city defense forces in the South City?"

"Less than a thousand." The soldier replied.

I'm afraid we can't keep it...

"in this way, we'll lead Huben guards to the south city. If those big soldiers dare to rebel, they'll cut him off. I believe it can be dragged to the governor and reinforcements. " A silver Gong suggested.

Several warlike watchmen were eager to try.

Hu Ben Wei is a fierce soldier who has been through many battles, plus the watchman who has been practicing Qi and playing the bottom role. If he cooperates with the city defense forces, he is safe and easy to hold for a period of time.

"What about Yang Chuannan? He is an important criminal of the imperial court. We can't ignore him. " Xu Qi'an reminds the watchmen who are hot headed.

"Take him with you." A Gong said.

"Do you believe that the soldiers of the Department of health beat us to death on the spot?" Xu Qian picks eyebrows.

"That's what they're fighting for, isn't it?" The Gong snorted coldly:

"do you think that if we are forced by force, we can make the governor give in? Just to let these soldiers and barbarians in Yunzhou know what a watchman is. "

This is the most irritating part of the watchmen.

They have always been the only ones to supervise and punish corrupt officials. When did anyone dare to bully their family? He also threatened to let the governor go out to meet in half an hour, or he would rush into the city.

This is not to pay attention to the watchmen at all, but to step on their face.

An official can bear it, but a martial arts man can't.

The Warlock can bear it, but the martial arts can't.

Damn it.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Xu Qian quickly knocked on the table and said in a deep voice, "calm down, everyone. Force can't solve the problem."

, has the final say that the silver Gong was the most irritable temper. He looked at Xu Qi an explosion. "Anyway, Lao Tzu can't bear it." Brothers, follow me and take Yang Chuannan with you. "

Li Miaozhen stood aside and looked on coldly.

Bang!

In the loud noise of the table, Xu Qi'an stood up.

Just about to leave the post station, a group of watchmen came back in astonishment.

Xu Qi'an pointed to the silver Gong's nose and yelled: "I don't care if you are a silver Gong. Can you hold me down with your position? You go to ask Zhu. Can you hold it down!

"You have intensified the contradiction. What do you want the governor to do? Kill three thousand soldiers? To say the least, you can't keep it. The war spread to the common people in the city. Are you responsible? Can you take responsibility? "

That silver Gong stem neck, blow beard stare: "Xu Qi'an, do you think you can be responsible?"

"At least Lao Tzu's shoulders are more than you can carry!" Cried Xu Qi'an.

For a moment, there was no refutation.

Su Su, a female ghost, looks at the scene in surprise. She finds it hard to understand.

"All of you stay here to guard Yang Chuannan. He is a serious criminal of the imperial court, and there should be no mistakes. The garrison in the outer city will be given to me to delay. " Xu Qi'an saw that no one continued to argue and said his plan.

"You?"

All the people have doubts on their faces.

Xu Qi'an pinched his eyebrows and explained clearly: "the purpose of the army of Wei Si is not to attack the city, but to ask the governor to release Yang Chuannan. There is room for maneuver."You rush there in a hurry with Yang Chuannan, which is no different from provocation. On the contrary, it intensifies the contradiction and makes both sides have no way back.

"Of course, I'm sure I can't persuade the officers and men of the garrison, but General Li can."

Xu Qi'an pushed Li Miaozhen out and said with a smile: "I think General Li doesn't want everyone to be so stiff, so that Yang Chuannan has no way out."

Li Miaozhen seemed to be waiting for the result. He slowly breathed out a breath, and no longer looked on coldly. He nodded his head and said, "our general will do his best until the governor comes."

...

Li Miaozhen and Xu Qi'an lead two fast horses to the south gate, and the paper man Su Su holds Li Miaozhen's small waist and sits at the back.

"You are quite capable of this little Gong!" Su Su side head, looking at the parallel Xu Qi'an.

"It's not that I have the ability, mainly..." Xu Qi'an coughed and confided in a secret voice: "in fact, governor Zhang and I are half brothers."

Su Su once grasped the key point: "ah, are you the brother of governor Zhang?"

"How else can I have such a big say?"

"I see..." Su Su suddenly realized that she knew a big secret.

Li Miaozhen wanted to remind her maid that she couldn't believe a punctuation mark in what Xu Qi'an said.

The reason why he has such a great voice is that he is deeply trusted and appreciated by Wei Yuan and has an unusual position in the Yamen.

But this information comes from inside the heaven and Earth Society. What does the intelligence No. 2 knows have to do with Li Miaozhen?

...

after they came to the south gate and showed their waist cards, they climbed to the top of the city and were personally received by a thousand families of the city defense army.

"Governor, why haven't you come yet?"

Armed with a saber, a face with Chinese characters and triangular eyes, a thousand burly households look at the open street, and their disappointment is hard to hide.

"The governor is commanding the envoys to investigate the case. We can't come here for the time being. I'll come with the general of the Ranger to delay." Xu Qian explained.

He stood at the head of the city and looked down. There were two squares outside the city. The big one was the army of the guard. The cavalry was in the front, the infantry was in the back, and the artillery was in the middle.

Flag hunting, three thousand soldiers and horses looking at the city, silent. An indescribable ferocity came to his face.

Xu Qi'an is now in the realm of alchemy, but when he faces this army who has been through many battles, his mind is still evasive, and he doesn't dare to be hard.

I've been fighting for three thousand li, and I've been a million division with one sword. What kind of warrior can achieve such a feat?

He thought with emotion.

"The army in Yunzhou is extremely fierce. They are not afraid of death." Li Miaozhen, holding a silver gun, looked down on him side by side:

"when I came to the post station last night, I was afraid that the governor would go too far and push the matter to an irreversible situation."

Xu Qi'an nods. The banditry in Yunzhou is in full swing. It's strange to be a soldier in Yunzhou. Soldiers who have been fighting for many years have a deep sense of evil spirit. They usually only recognize the leaders who fight with them. It is difficult for outsiders to control them.

They don't cherish their lives as much as soldiers in the comfort zone.

"The little square over there, which army is it?" Xu Qian asked.

Under the command of the city is the White Emperor city under the command of the Department of Wei, also known as the Department of Wei. The next level is Suo, the little square beside it. Looking at about four or five hundred people, Xu Qian guessed that it was the county level Suo.

Li Miaozhen was embarrassed: "it's my flying swallow army."

Ning is also a 25-year-old? Xu Qi'an looked at her eyes, full of distrust.

Li Miaozhen explained: "I really thought about using the army to put pressure on me. It's all bad things raised in the army of Yunzhou."

She left the pot to the Yunzhou army.

"What do we do now, out of town?" Xu Qian said tentatively.

"Well." Li Miaozhen nodded.

"Can I not go?"

"The governor you represent," Li Miaozhen gave him a glance: "commander Wei made Xu Huchen hot tempered and headstrong. Since you want to resolve the contradiction, you have to bear it."

"Your face is not good?"

Li Miaozhen said, "if I don't want to be with you, he will cut off your Gong."

"Hey, soldiers are really unreasonable."

The city gate creaked and opened. The thousand families of the city defense army sent two people out of the city and waved: "take care."

Xu Qi'an looked back on his horse and said, "why don't you come with us

Qianhu said, "it's windy here. What do you say? I can't hear you clearly... Oh, my Lord said close the gate? Well, I won't open the gate even if I'm killed. "

The gate closed slowly.

"Xu Qi said with ease, Gan.

Li Miaozhen didn't attack Wei Si directly. Instead, he turned his horse around and went to his own flying swallow army. He called for dozens of cavalry to hold down the battle. This time, he met the 3000 troops of Wei Si.

"My Feiyan army has the lowest cultivation level, which is also the refining level. There are 437 people in total. Wu Chang has the highest refining level, Shi Chang has the Qi training level, and Bai Hu has the copper skin and iron bone training level."Li Miaozhen's voice is sweet and clear. He introduces his private army to Xu Qian with a little pride.

Four in six, forty in practice... My mother, is this woman terrible?

Xu Qi'an swallowed his saliva, "there is no such army in Yunzhou."

Li Miaozhen let out a "um" and said with reserve: "everyone came to Yunzhou with me because of my face."

How much face do you have? Xu Qi'an turned his head and looked at the high horsetail of the silver spear. She had to reassess her strength.

Xu Qian's direct impression of her is the saint of Tianzong, followed by Feiyan nvxia. But now it seems that the title of Feiyan nvxia has to be at the top of the list.

Li Miaozhen's connections in the world are perhaps more profound than he imagined.

Everyone in the heaven and earth society is full of talents. My little Causeway needs to work harder... Well, first set a small goal to become Wei Yuan's son...

"then what is Xu Huchen's cultivation?" Xu Qi'an asked suddenly.

"The peak of alchemy." Li Miaozhen replied.

"It's not high." Xu Qian was surprised.

"Wei Yuan is still an ordinary man. He is not the same as the commander in chief of the three armed forces." Li Miaozhen shook his head and said, "marching and fighting are not brave and fierce. Those who are good at martial arts can take one as a hundred and one as a thousand. But it may not be able to command an army of thousands.

"Five hundred people are the limit of my ability. But Xu Huchen could command an army of 3000 to 5000 people. If I fight head-on, I will lose. "

Violence is aesthetics, and war is art.

Li Miaozhen stopped at a distance of five Zhang from the army of the Department of health, and said in a loud voice, "commander Xu, come here and talk."

When the first horse came out of the line, the general at the head was eight feet tall. The horse at the hip was bigger than the ordinary horse. He had a long handle in his hand.

Anyone who dares to use the long shield is a valiant general.

Xu Huchen, with a sharp look and a deep blue jaw, nodded slightly to Li Miaozhen:

"is general Li the commander of our rescue team?"

Li Miaozhen shook his head: "Lord Yang, everything is OK. General Xu is too aggressive. Do you know the consequences? "

"It's a big deal to die."

Xu Huchen was very single and said with a grin: "Lao Tzu's life was saved by the commander. If the imperial court wants to cure him, Lao Tzu will give up his life."

Xu Qian suddenly asked, "how do you know the news?"

Xu Huchen glanced at Xu Qian and sneered: "it's the eagle claw under Wei Wei's hand."

When you say I'm ok, it's too much to say my father... With a flick of his thumb, Xu Qi'an's long black gold knife came out half an inch and said in a deep voice:

"General Xu, don't challenge the majesty of the imperial court. I come here with sincerity. If you don't appreciate it, just now, you will be cut off. "

Li Miaozhen said so much, but what he revealed was one thing: don't reason with soldiers.

Being reasonable is what scholars do. Soldiers only talk about fists. Only when fists are hard can you have dignity.

Xu Qi'an's idea is to show force first, win respect, and frighten these people who are not afraid of death. Then we can reason.

Xu Huchen is polite to Li Miaozhen and directly sneers at him, which is the embodiment of his lack of dignity.

But it's definitely not right to cut people directly, which will intensify the contradiction.

"Daddada..."

he turned his horse's head and went to the other side in silence.

Xu Huchen and Li Miaozhen, as well as dozens of riders of the Feiyan army, followed him.

"Well! Laozi wants to see the governor. He deserves to talk to me with a Gong? " Xu Huchen sneered with disdain, "don't you think this is the capital, everyone is afraid of beating watchmen?

"General Li, what's the matter with the commander?"

Li Miaozhen shook his head and just looked at Xu Qian's back.

Xu Huchen was a bit impatient. He was already irritable and irritable. He avoided the governor and sent a gong to deal with himself. He was very dissatisfied.

Even can't resist the impulse to kill gongs and demonstrate to the governor.

For the sake of Li Miaozhen, the general of the Ranger, he was willing to come and talk.

At this time, the Gong stopped and turned to look at Xu Huchen with a sneer.

Then, with a flick of his left thumb, he pushed the sabre out half an inch, and held the handle of the sabre in his right hand. After a short period of accumulation of force...

"Qiang!"

In the eyes of Xu Huchen and others, and in the eyes of thousands of troops, they only feel that the air is distorted, as if there is something passing by.

The next moment, in the dull sound, the ground split a slit, from the foot of Xu Qi'an to the front of the army, more than ten feet vertically.

There was a commotion in the front row, and the horses seemed to be startled.

Xu Huchen's eyes widened. I can't believe that he can really cut me off just now.

The fierce general, who led the battle, had a little awe in his heart and agreed with Xu Qi'an's sincerity.Li Miaozhen stares at Xu Qi'an in surprise, and a big question mark flashes in his mind.

Judging from the eyes of the saint of Tianzong, the blade is as sharp and swift as thunder. Even the warrior who has just entered the six grades of copper skin and iron bone realm can't resist it with his physical body.

Is this what a martial arts practitioner in Qi state can do?

Then she remembered what No. 1 had said. Xu Qi'an once chopped a silver Gong, and the silver Gong was a master of refining the spirit.

At that time, he was able to cut people by leaps and bounds. Now, he is a half step alchemy.

If he is a genius, Taoist Jinlian didn't invite him to join the club. Instead, he chose his cousin, who is so terrible.

"Ooh."

Behind him, the experts of Feiyan army were amazed.

"Daddada..."

little Causeway rode back, strongly supporting his tired body, and faintly said: "General Xu, my officer Xu Qi'an, on behalf of the governor, has come to discuss with you."

"..." Xu Huchen said in a deep voice, "please speak, my Lord."
