Lu Lingqi gave a sharp shout and urged the people next to her to lower the suspension bridge and open the city gate.
Feeling the power transmitted from the red tree, the expressions of the soldiers guarding the city could not help but change. Just when the soldiers were forced to open the door, something unexpected happened.
Tap tap tap......
There was a sound of horse hooves coming from behind.
Another group of soldiers came over, and unlike before, the leader was holding a long sword, wearing heavy armor, and riding a brown-red horse, and came straight to the city gate.
"No one is allowed to open the door without the Lord's order!"
"Those who disobey orders will be killed!"
The person giving the orders was none other than Cheng Lian, one of Lu Bu's eight capable generals.
He was already responsible for defending the city. When he heard the noise in the city, he felt something was wrong, so he quickly put on his armor and armed himself and galloped here. He happened to see Lu Lingqi threatening his soldiers.
Seeing Cheng Lian arriving, Lu Lingqi secretly thought it was bad.
If she were an ordinary soldier, she could still rely on her status to exert pressure, but Cheng Lian was different. He followed his father in the north and south, so naturally he was not afraid of his own threats.
Seeing Lu Lingqi's expression change drastically, Lin Zhe couldn't help but realize that this situation was probably not in this girl's plan at all.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhe couldn't help but feel helpless in his eyes.
This girl has exactly the same personality as her father, so you shouldn’t trust her!
You still have to figure it out yourself...
Before Lin Zhe could think of a solution, a gust of fragrant wind blew in front of her. Lu Lingqi jumped up and sat directly in front of Lin Zhe from her horse.
Afraid that Lu Lingqi would fall, Lin Zhe hurriedly stretched out his hand to help her, and just happened to wrap his arms around the girl's waist, which was warm and delicate.
"Girl, what are you doing?"
bass--
Lu Lingqi did not answer, but drew the sword from her waist.
The three-foot green blade was unsheathed, and there was a cold glow in the moonlight.
"Young master, don't say any more. Take this sword and take me out of the city quickly!"
"Um?!"
Lin Zhe was smart and understood the girl's thoughts in just a moment. He took the sword from Lu Lingqi's hand and put it around her neck.
Seeing this, Cheng Lian didn't dare to act rashly. Even if he saw the two people in front of him acting, he didn't dare to bet on this eventuality.
He knew something about the affairs between Lin Zhe and his lord. Not only the marriage, but also Lin Zhe himself was coerced to stay in Xiapi.
Cheng Lian couldn't say how much affection there was between Lin Zhe and Lu Lingqi.
If Lin Zhe was forced to jump over the wall, even if he didn't kill Lu Lingqi but just scratched or injured her, he would probably have to face Lu Bu's wrath.
Forced by helplessness, Cheng Lian had no choice but to wave his hand and order the soldiers to open the city gate.
Lin Zhe did not hesitate, saw the opportunity, and took Lu Lingqi directly away from Xiapi as soon as he clamped the horse's belly.
The two rode a horse together and galloped for nearly five miles. Lin Zhe then slowed down the horse and stopped slowly.
I send you off thousands of miles away, but you must say goodbye in the end.
Lu Lingqi also knew that it was time for the two of them to separate, so she decisively turned over and dismounted. However, when she looked up at Lin Zhe on the horse, there was a hint of mist in her eyes.
"Young Master, please go ahead...Lingqi will help you deal with the pursuers behind you!"
Lin Zhe nodded, although he felt a little reluctant to give up, but when he thought of the crisis his lord was facing, he couldn't help but become cruel, and directly pinched the horse's belly, leaving Lu Lingqi where she was.
I finally left...
Lu Lingqi's eyes looked a little lonely, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad in her heart.
The cold wind was blowing, and the black brocade was blowing, and the hair tie around the waist was fluttering in the wind, as if it still retained the warmth of the person's fingers just now.
Ta da da...
The sound of horse hoofbeats came, which was particularly clear in the empty mountains.
Are the pursuers sent by Cheng Lian arriving?
Then it’s time for you to go back!
"that..."
When a familiar voice sounded, Lu Lingqi couldn't help but open her eyes wide. When she raised her head, she looked into the eyes of the man on the horse.
"Zhe just thought about it, since it's a kidnapping, it's better to have a beginning and an end!"
"Perhaps we can still use this girl in the upcoming battle!"
Lin Zhe sat on the horse and stretched out his right hand towards Lu Lingqi, who was standing there blankly, looking like a gentleman.
"So, sorry..."
"Girl, you are... kidnapped now!"
...
...
The time is pushed forward to one day ago.
But as for Liu Bei, when he and Zhang Fei were heading towards Xiapi City with several carts of gifts, they suddenly met Zhao Wu who came to deliver a message.
When he learned that Lin Zhe was forced to stay in Xiapi by Lu Bu, Liu Bei couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy on his face.
He knew that Xian Yun would not betray him!
Before Liu Bei could continue to be happy, Zhao Wu revealed Lin Zhe's guess.
When he learned that Lu Bu's target might be Xiaopei, Liu Bei's expression changed visibly.
He decisively ordered that he take Zhao Wu back to rescue Xiaopei, leaving Zhang Fei alone to prepare for Lin Zhe who was leaving the city.
Before he could successfully return to Xiaopei, he met troops led by Song Xian and Wei Xu on the road.
When the enemy troops met, they were extremely jealous, and the two armies decisively began to fight.
Liu Bei himself came to Xiapi to give gifts. Naturally, he could not have too many guards around him. There were only a hundred people capable of fighting.
Facing the thousands of soldiers and horses of Song Xian and Wei Xu, Liu Bei was naturally unable to cope with them, so he gave up the idea of going to Xiaopei for reinforcements and took a detour to the northwest to escape.
...
...
But on Yuan Shu's side, when Chen Gong sent someone to contact him, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed. Not only did he deliver the food and grass in time, he even gave some gold and silver.
Yuan Shu's abacus was very loud. He didn't spend a single soldier and just provided material support so that the two could conquer each other. So why not?
At that time, all you have to do is sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. When both Lu Bu and Liu Bei are injured, you can reap the benefits.
Therefore, Yuan Shu had little hesitation and decisively ordered Ji Ling to lead his army to station in Wuxian area.
However, when Ji Ling reached a valley, he happened to encounter Zhang Liao's troops who came to ambush.
With the sound of a cannon, arrows rained down like a rain of arrows, shouts of killing shook the sky, and Ji Ling's troops were defeated. The soldiers abandoned their helmets and armor and ran away with their heads in their hands.
In the panic, even Ji Ling was almost chopped off his horse by Zhang Liao. If it weren't for the lives of several personal guards, Ji Ling would have died on the spot.
When Yuan Shu heard the news, he was furious and planned to lead an army to attack Lu Bu and Liu Bei at the same time.
Who would have thought that before he could take action, Cao Xing and Hao Meng stationed in Xuyi and Huaiyin suddenly launched an attack. Not only did they defeat Yuan Shu's general Zhang Xun, they even almost led their troops across Hongze Lake to attack Shouchun.
This shocked Yuan Shu, so he forcibly resisted the thought of attacking Xiaopei and promptly mobilized troops to reinforce Zhang Xun.
It was not until the arrival of the army that Cao Xing and Hao Meng's troops were forced back to Xuyi and Huaiyin for a confrontation.
The whole of Xuzhou is a mess, fighting is happening everywhere, and wars are going on everywhere, and almost all of this is planned by Chen Gong!
This is not over yet. Apart from these battlefields, the most eye-catching thing is Xiaopei's offensive and defensive battle.
Gao Shun led his subordinates to the camp and ten thousand soldiers to the outside of Xiaopei City again, preparing to lead troops to surprise Xiaopei.
This is also his second time here. The last time, he lost to Lin Zhe.
