It was March 17, the tenth year of the Xuan calendar, at the hour of Mao.
Spring rain is as precious as oil, but it also makes people sad.
After five days of marching, Xue Dingshan's troops finally arrived outside the mighty city of Jianmen.
The soldiers were shivering in the rain, all wet, and he, the general, was not feeling well either.
But now is not the time to think about this. The situation is urgent. If we don't take Jianmen City quickly, it will be disastrous once Fei An's troops arrive.
The gates of Jianmen City were wide open in the mist and rain, but there was not even a shadow of a defender on the city wall.
Xue Dingshan frowned and sent a personal guard to check.
The personal guard rode out on his horse, getting closer and closer to Jianmen City. He pulled the reins, looked carefully at the city wall, and then suddenly opened his mouth as if he had seen something incredible.
His heart was pounding and he suddenly felt cold all over - not because of the cold rain, but because of the tall flagpole standing on the open city gate.
He whipped the horse's butt, and the warhorse galloped forward. He stood only a hundred meters away from the city gate.
There were no guards at the open city gate, and there was not a single ghost on the balcony. His eyes once again fell on the flagpole, and hanging on the flagpole was not a flag, but a human head!
The man's long black hair was disheveled, but the face could still be seen clearly.
It was a clown face. The bright red rouge originally applied on the face was wet by the spring rain. Raindrops flowed down the cheeks, and red and white lines appeared on the face, which was very scary.
He confirmed the face and became more and more frightened. He turned his horse around and ran back to the center of the army quickly.
"General, Madam, Madam..."
Xue Dingshan frowned, "What's wrong, Madam?"
"General, please follow me. I dare not speak nonsense."
Xue Dingshan's heart sank, and he felt that this was simply impossible.
Xi Hua's troops were behind, and judging by the time, they had probably just arrived at Qipan Pass.
Yu Chunqiu's team was further behind and it was impossible for them to chase Xi Hua, so what was the personal guard talking about?
He led three thousand personal guards to the city gate.
I looked up at the drizzling rain...
His heart slowly rose, and his eyes narrowed smaller and smaller.
He suddenly roared, "Go upstairs and chop down that flagpole for me! I want to take a closer look!"
Three thousand guards rushed into the empty city gate, climbed up the city wall, cut down the flagpole, and then carried a head to Xue Dingshan.
Xue Dingshan's hands were shaking violently.
He held the head in his hands and examined it carefully. Then he reached out a hand to push the scattered hair behind his ears. He touched the face again, and all the rouge on it was gone. He suddenly let out a heartbreaking roar: "Ah...!"
"Attack the city! Kill everyone inside!"
The army moved with a roar, and the shouts of killing resounded through the sky!
This is an empty city. With Xue Dingshan's ability, he should have many doubts, but now he doesn't think about anything.
This is undoubtedly Xi Hua's head. You evil thieves, you killed Xi Hua and hung her head on the city gate, letting it suffer in the spring rain and cold wind. I will tear you into pieces!
Xue Dingshan's eyes were bloodshot. He cut off a piece of his clothes with a knife, carefully wrapped up Xi Hua's head, and tied it to his back.
"Madam, this general will definitely avenge you!"
"Massacre the city for three days, leaving no one alive!"
He looked like a madman, roaring like a wild beast.
He swung his sword and rode his horse into Jianmen City.
He didn't know at this moment that the city was really empty. No, there was still one person in the city. She was Su Su. At this moment, she was sitting in a restaurant, drinking alone and eating dishes she cooked herself.
…
…
After the Qipan Pass incident was completed, Peng Yuyan left three thousand mountain divisions at Qipan Pass and sent scouts on fast horses to deliver the news to Yu Chunqiu.
Huo Huaijin originally wanted to return to the Prince of Zhenxi's Mansion and bring his personal soldiers to fight Xue Dingshan to avenge his father, but Fu Xiaoguan's words made him give up this idea. Xue Dingshan was about to die, and he had no chance to lead his troops to fight Xue Dingshan.
So he went to Baishuitan, where Fei An had an army of 400,000. He took Fu Xiaoguan's handwritten letter and wanted to personally lead an army of 100,000 to join the battle.
Fu Xiaoguan took Xu Xinyan and Peng Yuyan out of Qipan Pass and headed towards Jianmen.
"With Xue Dingshan's ability, he definitely wouldn't easily enter that empty city."
"So I made two preparations. The first was to hang Xi Hua's head on the gate tower of Jianmen City. I'm afraid Xue Dingshan would be provoked by this and would charge in without thinking too much.
Second, I had Su Mo's troops block the Huai'an Road. If Xue Dingshan still had his wits about him and didn't dare enter the empty city, he would have no choice but to head towards Huai'an Road. Su Mo could hold back Xue Dingshan's army, and when Fei An's troops arrived, it would be the end of the bandit Xue.
"So, after General Yu arrived, he couldn't even have a sip of soup?"
Fu Xiaoguan chuckled, "As for such a rubbish as war, I think it's better if we don't encounter it."
A gentle drizzle fell on Fu Xiaoguan. He took a deep breath of the fresh mountain air and recited a poem with great interest: "Spring has come again. Birds are singing on the branches. Rain falls on the branches and peach blossoms turn red. All things are renewed and the mountain flowers are in full bloom."
"Being alive is better than anything else!"
Peng Yuyan turned her head and glanced at him. "Great talent, are you expressing your feelings?"
"Somewhat. There used to be six major clans in the capital. Two of them were destroyed last year. Now... I'm afraid many people will die! Why bother? Why bother?"
Peng Yuyan fell silent. Since Xue Dingshan was rebelling, the Xue family would naturally suffer.
Xi Hua was originally trusted by His Majesty, but she failed to live up to His Majesty's trust. I am afraid that the Xi family will not be able to escape the disaster.
The six major clans in Shangjing were once prosperous, but in the blink of an eye, only the Yan clan and the Qin clan were left. It is truly unpredictable and everything is fleeting.
Peng Yuyan didn't know that there was a hidden story between Qin Huizhi and the Fourth Prince. If the Fourth Prince Yu Wenshu was captured, even the Qin family would be destroyed.
Only one Yan clan will be left.
But a Fu family emerged!
Of course, Fu Xiaoguan would never admit that his Fu Mansion belonged to the Fu clan, because he felt that the word "clan" was not very auspicious.
"Once the Fourth Prince escaped, it was really hard to catch him. But now he's probably like a lost dog. Look at him, he's a good Prince Jin, but he chose to get into this mess. What a waste of time!"
"I'm afraid he will return to Xirong."
Fu Xiaoguan pondered for a moment and did not answer.
"Will you return to Shangjing after the thief Xue is defeated?" Peng Yuyan asked.
Fu Xiaoguan shook his head and said, "Since we're already out, let's go and take down the Moon Worship Sect to save ourselves the trouble."
Xu Xinyan was slightly startled, and slowly lowered her head——
He is going to fight the Moon Worship Sect. What should I do?
