When the smoke gradually dissipated, there was no trace of the demon fox on the embroidered building. The Vietnamese army downstairs couldn't help but turn pale with fright. Several generals in charge of the troops hurriedly ordered a careful search. Everyone searched around cautiously.
Nothing was found.
At this time, several generals discussed and decided to rush upstairs to see if Li Long was still upstairs regardless of avoiding suspicion. Several people ran directly upstairs and broke into the house.
In front of the window illuminated by the moonlight, the demon fox was standing there. Next to him was a woman, who seemed to be Li Long.
The demon fox looked back at the generals who rushed in. With a low growl, he yanked Li Long's clothes and threw them in front of several people. Several people hurriedly waved their swords and chopped the clothes into pieces.
Looking at the window again, there was no sign of the demon fox or Li Long. Several people looked at each other, stunned for a moment, and hurriedly went downstairs to ask the soldiers downstairs if they saw anything leaving from upstairs. The soldiers shook their heads and said
Didn't see anything.
Several generals were immediately confused: Just a demon fox, Miss Li Long, a living girl, just disappeared in front of everyone? If a few people can't see clearly, there are still more than 200 soldiers downstairs.
Didn't the soldiers see clearly? What's more, it was moonlight this night, the moon was bright and clear, and the soldiers' torches illuminated the yard as bright as day.
The more everyone thought about it, the more terrifying it became. They couldn't help but take a few steps back and stared at the embroidered building with wide eyes, fearing that something strange would happen again. A general ordered several soldiers to go to the Third Prince's Mansion to report the matter quickly.
The soldiers who received the order hurriedly ran out of Li's Mansion. Who wanted to stay here at this time, but a soldier dressed as a general slowly fell behind and disappeared in a flash.
When it was getting light, the third prince arrived at Duke Li's mansion with the support of his guards. He went directly to the show building in the backyard. He stretched out his hand to grab it and shouted, "Where's the human? Where's the fox demon?"
Several generals and a group of Taoist priests hurriedly stood in front of them and stood with their heads bowed. The general who led the team reported: "Prince Qi, the demon fox appeared late at night, robbed the prisoners, and disappeared out of thin air.
The third prince was furious and ordered that all the generals and Taoist priests be immediately taken into custody and sent to the government office for questioning! He ignored everyone's pleas and turned around in anger and left. The guard next to him hurriedly came over to help him and left the Li Mansion.
Li Guogong stayed up all night and heard the chaos behind him until dawn. When he saw the third prince coming, he wanted to go see him, but he saw that he came in a hurry and left in a hurry. When he went back to ask the soldiers, he was told that his daughter
Being snatched away by the demon fox, Li Guogong immediately sat on the ground, staring blankly at his daughter's embroidery building, speechless.
All the soldiers did not dare to come forward to comfort him. They gathered their knives, grabbed their weapons, and went back dejectedly.
Li Guogong waited for all the troops to leave, but he got up, knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the embroidered building, and muttered: "The fox fairy is merciful, rescue my daughter, I hope she will be well and take care of her." Li Guogong also
I guessed that since the demon fox can kill the imperial army for the sake of Qi Shang's female family members, then Li Long and Qi Shang's family members have a good relationship. The demon fox will appear to save people rather than harm them. As long as the daughter escapes from the clutches of the third prince,
That's a blessing.
There was a ridiculous commotion here, and soon word spread in Fucheng that a fox fairy had appeared, and someone made it up and said: Miss Li's family is the reincarnation of a fairy, and the fox fairy followed her in cultivation. Knowing that the master is in trouble,
Go to the rescue. For a while, the people in Fucheng went to the Li Mansion one after another, either to steal bricks or pull out flowers and plants, saying that as long as the utensils touched by Miss Li's family had spiritual energy, they could keep the family safe.
Whenever someone from the Li family went out to do business, people would immediately rush up to them and ask for some of the things Miss Li had used, leaving the Li family confused.
Gu Yuetian told the story of the fairy-making drama in Fucheng in front of King Wuyou. Even King Wuyou, Ye Xing, Lu Zheng and others applauded Gu Yuetian.
It turned out that that night, Gu Yuetian appeared upstairs first, attracting the attention of all the soldiers. Peng Yunzhan disguised himself as a general and sneaked into the soldiers. Then, with the help of smoke, Gu Yuetian knocked Li Long unconscious and dressed her up as a Yue.
He looked like a soldier and hid under the bed. He held Li Long's clothes in his hand and used the support to make it look like a human figure. He stood in front of the window. When Peng Yunzhan rushed up with several generals, he just threw away the clothes and added Peng Yunzhan's cover.
, he hid in the dark again, causing the illusion that the fox demon and Miss Li disappeared out of thin air. Peng Yunzhan greeted him and asked the soldiers, and Gu Yuetian quietly took Li Long and slipped away in the chaos. Peng Yunzhan followed him to the Prince's Mansion to report the incident.
The soldiers also left Li Mansion and took the time to escape.
The legend in Fucheng that Li Long was a fairy was also spread by Gu Yuetian. In this way, King Yue Yue could no longer be detrimental to Li Guogong.
King Wuyou kept smiling and nodding as he listened. When they finished speaking, he said to Peng Yunzhan: "It's time for Zilong to attack Hangzhou. You go to the city and join the people there. With the support in the city, the prince's wedding is approaching.
, let’s give him a generous gift!”
Gu Yuetian asked: "I'll go too. I've been pestered by this girl here all day long. I've been annoyed to death." As soon as Gu Yuetian said this, his face suddenly changed, his body swayed, and he disappeared without a trace.
No trace.
Then there were footsteps approaching. Mingliang smiled at King Wuyou and others outside the door, then came in and said to King Wuyou: "Your Majesty, the princess asked you to take her back? She wants to go to the mountain behind with Miss Li."
"
King Wuyou said "Oh" and said: "I still have something to do. Tell Ying'er that if she insists on my company, she can call me here. If she doesn't, just take care of her."
Mingliang saluted and turned around, but her eyes scanned the room. Peng Yunzhan knew that she was looking for Gu Yuetian, so he didn't point it out and said to himself: "There might be foxes in the back mountain!" After saying that, he laughed. Wuyou
Wang also shook his head and smiled. Hearing this, Mingliang's face turned red and she ran out directly.
At this time, outside Hangzhou, Zilong accompanied Prince Qi Yi, standing on the building, looking at Hangzhou opposite, and then at the more than 100,000 Qi and Wu soldiers gathered outside Hangzhou. There was Huangfu in Hangzhou.
Nian Feng led 60,000 Yue troops to garrison, and outside the city were 150,000 Qi and Wu coalition forces. The Qi and Wu coalition forces had been besieging the city for several days, but they had never attacked the city. They only besieged the city tightly, and then surrounded the Vietnamese troops around Hangzhou.
The army cleared the area completely, and also sent troops to block the adjacent Yue city.
The prince asked Zilong: "General Zilong, our army is ready now! When is the best time to attack the city?"
Zilong cupped his hands and replied: "Prince, I have agreed with General Zhuge to besiege the city for a period of time and wait until the Vietnamese army slackens, then launch an offensive. There is no need for another city in Hangzhou. The city has been run by the Yue Kingdom for many years, and the city walls are high and thick.
Huangfu Nianfeng is also a veteran, and he still has 60,000 troops under his command. If we are not fully prepared, too many of our troops will be damaged."
The prince nodded and then motioned for Zilong to continue.
Zilong continued: "I made an agreement with Prince Wuyou that he would send people to meet in the city and harass them day by day, causing panic among the Vietnamese troops in the city. After a few days of disturbance, we would launch an attack. Counting the time, today in Hangzhou
It’s time for something to happen.”
In Hangzhou, Peng Yunzhan met with shopkeeper Tan and others who stayed in the city, went to the grain and grass fields in Hangzhou, and planned how to burn the grain and grass. It was already late summer and early autumn, and Hangzhou had been selling grain and grass for several days in a row.
When there was no rain, Shopkeeper Tan suggested starting at night, and Peng Yunzhan nodded in agreement. The two of them planned carefully and then split up. Shopkeeper Tan prepared sulfur and saltpeter, arranged the manpower to set fire at night, and then determined the route of retreat.
Peng Yunzhan went to the cell in Hangcheng to wait for an opportunity to release the prisoners.
Waiting for a crescent moon to hang in the sky, the breeze blows, the clouds cover it, and everything in the night becomes hazy. Shopkeeper Tan leads his men outside the grain farm. Huangfu Nianfeng has been leading troops for many years, so he naturally knows
Because of the importance of the forage yard, I sent my trusted generals and heavy troops to guard it closely. The area within a dozen feet was completely cleared, and the patrolling soldiers kept patrolling.
Shopkeeper Tan had already figured out the rules of military patrols, and a few people sneaked in when they had time. Shopkeeper Tan saw that several groups of people had entered the hayyard separately, so he came out of the shadows and walked directly to the gate of the hayyard.
The soldiers on guard noticed it and shouted loudly to stop it. Soldiers on patrol also came over.
Shopkeeper Tan was not afraid at all. Seeing that the distance was close, he jumped forward suddenly and arrived in front of a group of soldiers. He flew in a circle and kicked over the soldiers in a circle. Then the moment he landed,
He turned forward and entered among the soldiers. He swept his legs in a circle and a dozen more soldiers fell to the ground.
As soon as Shopkeeper Tan made a move, he kicked over and wounded twenty or thirty soldiers. Seeing that the intruder was fierce and difficult to deal with, the soldiers on guard shouted, and the patrol soldiers and soldiers in the field rushed over one after another.
, hundreds of people surrounded Shopkeeper Tan. Shopkeeper Tan only fought hand-to-hand with the soldiers, either kicking them over or kicking them away. The soldiers beside him staggered around, and those behind him couldn't rush forward.
Come up.
A dozen more guys took advantage of the chaos and ran to the side of the hayyard, lit a fire and threw the wine into it. After throwing it, they ran away and later threw it elsewhere.
The soldiers on guard rushed out one after another, either chasing those who set the fire, or rushing to put out the fire. At this time, the guys who were mixed in had already taken advantage of the chaos to change into the uniforms of the Vietnamese army, and swaggered into the forage yard.
Taking advantage of others' unpreparedness, he put down fuses and secret scents everywhere. Seeing that all the fire starters in his hands were gone, he rushed out from inside. Seeing the Vietnamese soldiers, he asked softly for the secret code. He couldn't answer it.
One knife.
It was almost time for Shopkeeper Tan to see him. He kicked over the soldiers beside him, jumped on top of the soldiers' heads, stepped on the soldiers' heads, and ran into the dark. In a flash, he disappeared. Those who were throwing torches outside
The guy turned around and ran away long ago.
While the Vietnamese army sent people to chase after them, they quickly checked the fire inside the yard. Several open fires ignited by torches outside were extinguished. Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, fires broke out in many places in the forage yard, and then started burning.
There was a chaos, and the soldiers were in chaos. A general quickly called the soldiers, and rushed water trucks and buckets to put out the fire.
But once the fire started, it was not so easy to save. Soon the fire was shining red across half of the sky, and the heat wave hitting the face made it impossible for anyone to stand a hundred paces away, let alone put out the fire nearby.
