Quezhou City...

In the garrison camp, Tan Shouchang sat on the main seat, but his mind had already drifted outside the city.

Qin Jiu opened the curtain and walked in. Tan Shouchang immediately stretched his neck when he heard the movement.

"Any news?" he asked.

When everyone decided to invite the five thousand pioneers of the Suxi Army to enter the urn, Qin Jiu sent a letter to the deputy general of the Pioneer Battalion with the unique message code of the Suxi Army.

The letter stated that Tan Shouchang was willing to cooperate with the Suxi Army to eradicate Xiao Lingfeng and other unrighteous people who harmed the royal family and endangered the country.

"There is news..." Qin Jiu nodded, "The deputy general of the Pioneer Battalion didn't notice anything unusual. They marched overnight with five thousand soldiers and horses, and they are now twenty miles outside Quezhou City. They will arrive in Quezhou in about half an hour. Under the city."

"Okay!" Tan Shouchang was overjoyed when he heard the words, and punched himself in the palm of his hand, "In that case, let's go according to the original plan!"

After reconfirming that all the people in the inner city had been relocated, Tan Shouchang no longer had any scruples.

He quickly got up and took his saber, turned around and walked out quickly: "I will go to meet them in person!"

Half an hour later, when Tan Shouchang on the tower was getting impatient, the vanguard battalion of the Suxi Army finally appeared in his sight.

Five thousand vanguard cavalry marched towards them quickly from the direction of the horizon. Although there were only five thousand soldiers and horses in number, the sense of oppression brought by this vast and dark area should not be underestimated.

Tan Shouchang took a deep breath, ordered people to open the city gate, and rode out of the city with his guards himself.

The deputy general of the Pioneer Battalion of the Suxi Army was a lean and capable middle-aged man. Seeing that Tan Shouchang opened the city gate as promised, his eyes lit up and he waved his hand to stop the people behind him.

He looked in the direction of the city tower from a distance, and saw that the number of guards on the city tower of Quezhou City had not increased significantly, and everything seemed to be the same as usual.

At the same time, Tan Shouchang also came out of the city gate with a few people dressed as guards.

Whether it is the sparse guards on the tower or the team of less than ten guards, there is no threat to the 5000 of them.

The deputy general felt a little satisfied.

Seeing Tan Shouchang getting closer, he twitched the corners of his mouth and urged him to take a few steps forward.

"Deputy General Zhang! It's a pleasure to meet you!" Tan Shouchang reined in the reins, with a joyful smile on his face, "I've been waiting for you!"

His face looked resolute and upright, but now he smiled a little more cheerfully, and anyone who saw him felt that he was extraordinarily sincere.

The lieutenant didn't notice anything wrong at all.

He didn't even think about why the garrison master of Yicheng would be so polite to him, a small adjutant of the vanguard battalion.

The two exchanged pleasantries with each other's thoughts, and while talking, he lost his gaze and saw Qin Jiu who had changed into a guard outfit.

At the same time, he saw Qin Jiu silently nodded to him, and his trust in Qin Jiu also made his tense body relax unconsciously.

He turned his attention back to Tan Shouchang.In the end, after Tan Shouchang commented for the third time on Xiao Lingfeng's "disrespect for etiquette and law is contrary to the rules and regulations", the deputy general finally let go of his guard against Tan Shouchang, a "firm royalist", and happily led his troops into the city.

Tan Shouchang personally led the way.

"Our Quezhou City is divided into inner and outer cities. The garrison camp of Quezhou City is in the east of the outer city."

Tan Shouchang introduced casually, "Under this kind of city structure, as long as the inner and outer city gates are closed, it is very suitable..."

As he was talking, he suddenly took two quick steps forward, two horses' distance away from the lieutenant general.

"It's very suitable for closing the door and beating the dog."

The voice fell, followed by a heavy muffled sound, and with this muffled sound, the heavy city gate closed at an unimaginable speed.

In an instant, countless figures surged from all around, they were the Quezhou garrison who had ambushed around in advance!

"you!!"

Now that the matter has come to this point, how can Vice General Zhang not understand!

With a quick reaction, he drew his sword and attacked Tan Shouchang, and at the same time shouted: "Qin Jiu!"

The commander-in-chief of his family had ordered that once the situation changed, Tan Shouchang would be killed on the spot, and Qin Jiu was the life-threatening knife!

However, the ring-headed broadsword he swung out in a hurry, not only missed Tan Shouchang at all, but was easily blocked by Qin Jiu.

"Qin Jiu!" Deputy General Zhang's eyes were tearing apart!

He didn't expect that Qin Jiu's life-threatening knife would be aimed at himself in the end!

The urgency of the situation does not allow for much thought, and Vice General Zhang can calm his mind.He gritted his teeth and raised the ring-headed broadsword again, but the move hadn't finished yet, but the hand that raised the knife suddenly froze in mid-air.

"Puff puff……"

Three iron arrows were shot from Tan Shouchang's side, and the arrows all hit his chest.His body froze for a moment, and then he was thrown back by the huge impact brought by the iron arrow.

The knife in his hand hit the ground with a bang, and Deputy General Zhang vomited a few big mouthfuls of blood. When he looked at Qin Jiu, his eyes were full of disbelief.

"You... how dare you..."

He held his breath, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "How dare you...betray the Commander...the Commander won't..."

I won't let you go.

Qin Jiu knew what he was going to say.

The word "betrayal" undoubtedly hit his nails, making his hand holding the knife stiff and at a loss for a moment.

"What are you stunned for?"

A chuckle came into his ears, "I'm in a daze now, but it's really fatal."

The familiar joking voice pulled Qin Jiu out of his trance.When he looked up, he saw Jiang Yusheng retracting his left arm and putting down his sleeve.

And the Deputy General Zhang who made him flustered for a moment, had already fallen off the horse, lying on the ground in a daze, dying with regret.

There is also an iron arrow stuck in the throat.

Qin Jiu was dumbfounded.

Jiang Yusheng sighed helplessly.

He turned sideways, stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Qin Jiu's eyes. After he regained his senses, he withdrew his hand and raised his chin a few feet away from the killing sound: "Aren't you going to help?"

He squinted his eyes and looked at Qin Jiu: "Don't you want to pay off your merits? If you don't have any military merits, what should you pay?"

Qin Jiu is like waking up from a dream.

After clenching fists with Jiang Yusheng, he immediately joined the battlefield.

I don't know whether it was the "betrayal" that Deputy General Zhang kept saying that stimulated him, or Jiang Yusheng's reminder gave him a new direction. energy.

Even in the eyes, there was a rare brilliance again.

The vanguard battalion of the Suxi Army came here from a trek. When they were introduced into the city, the soldiers thought they could finally have a good rest, and their vigilance was relaxed a lot.

At this moment, the Quezhou garrison who was ambushed here was caught off guard, and saw that his general died in a face-to-face, and his morale fell away.

Coupled with the fact that the Quezhou garrison was better at street fighting, it didn't take long for the Suxi army's vanguard battalion to retreat steadily.

An hour later, the battle in the outer city finally subsided completely.

Tan Shouchang was riding on a horse, and when he saw Ding Yue retreating from the battlefield, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "How is the situation?"

Ding Yue took off his helmet and wiped his face: "The five thousand rebels were wiped out. Our casualties are still being counted, but the situation is still good."

"Okay!" Tan Shouchang patted Ding Yue on the shoulder, "Thank you, General Ding!"

He turned his head to look at Qin Jiu, who was also covered in blood, with a solemn expression: "Xiao Qin, I will rely on you to send a message to Xu Lin, and try to hold them back before the prince arrives!"

Qin Jiu also looked serious: "Don't worry, General Tan."

Tan Shouchang nodded, and told Ding Yue and Qin Jiu to go to rest first, and he took people to survey the city gate again and re-armed to deal with the Suxi army afterward.

After Tan Shouchang left, Jiang Yusheng stepped forward and patted Qin Jiu's shoulder, imitating Tan Shouchang's tone and said sullenly, "Thank you, Xiao Qin!"

When Qin Jiu was slapped like this, his tense nerves suddenly relaxed.He tilted his head to meet Jiang Yusheng's smiling eyes, and hummed with relief.

The news that Quebei City had wiped out the Suxi Army's vanguard battalion was strictly suppressed.Qin Jiu's forged secret letter was also smoothly delivered to Xu Lin.

"Sir, what do you think?"

Xu Lin stared down at the secret letter in front of him, and unconsciously rubbed the jade finger on his thumb with his fingers.

The gentleman stroked his beard, thought for a moment and said, "Let's not talk about Jiang Yusheng for the time being. Qin Jiu always thought that his brother died because of Zhuang Qingyue, and he hated him so much, so he can use it with confidence."

"As for Vice General Zhang..." He looked at the secret letter on the table, which was printed with Vice General Zhang's private seal, "Vice General Zhang was brought out by you, and he is the most trustworthy person."

He concluded: "Since it is the news from Vice General Zhang himself, there should be no fake news."

Hearing what Mr. said, Xu Lin felt relieved.

He set the letter on fire: "The joints in Quezhou City can be opened up, so it is best not to spend more soldiers. Later, the commander will write a letter and make an agreement with Tan Shouchang to borrow troops."

The Liangzhou garrison has already taken a secret route to attack Gyeonggi, and he can't be left behind.

When the Liangzhou garrison army besieges the imperial capital, his soldiers and horses will drag the imperial army from behind, and Liu Qingping's patrol battalion will be used as internal support. No matter how powerful Xiao Lingfeng is, he won't be able to find the palm of his hand. !

Thinking of this, Xu Lin couldn't help feeling complacent and full of emotion.

After taking a long breath, he looked at Mr.: "Sir, we have been dormant and planning for so many years, and we finally waited for this day!"

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and took two steps forward to hold Mr.'s hand: "It will be a great cause at that time, sir, you will be the prime minister of the new dynasty!"
