Chapter 116 The Siege Begins

"I mean, our task in the next stage is to encircle and suppress the Juyi Gang and attract Tianlongzhai. This is the first stage. In the second stage, we will join hands with Tianlong Village to destroy Heifeng Village.

Liu Xia said with a faint smile.

The people around were stunned.

"Your Majesty, let the mountain thieves join hands?"

Liu Hongtao asked puzzledly.

"Yes, according to the information I got when I went up the mountain this time, Heifengzhai and Tianlongzhai have deep grievances. The encirclement and suppressing the Juyi Gang is to kill chickens and warn monkeys. Our purpose is the black wind village. Only Heifeng Village is our real enemy.

Liu Xia said firmly.

"The prince's plan is really unique. If we can get over Tianlongzhai, we will have one less strong rival and one more helper. At that time, we will indeed be much more relaxed. However, are you sure to let the people in Tianlongzhai turn to us?"

Song Yuanshan asked doubtfully.

Although Tianlongzhai is very powerful in Yuntianling, it is not the owner of Tianlongzhai alone. If you want them to make peace, I'm afraid many people below will not do it.

"As for the certainty, I have seven layers, and the remaining three layers are to see how cruel you are when you destroy the Juyi Gang."

Liu Xia said.

"But my lord, this Tianlongzhai is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Even if they are approved by edict, I'm afraid it will be a disaster sooner or later."

Liu Hongtao proposed carefully.

"I know this. But at this time, one more enemy means that we have to sacrifice more people, and with one more friend, we can kill fewer brothers. After destroying the Heifeng Village, Tianlong Village was isolated and helpless. Moreover, let Tianlongzhai attack Heifengzhai. When the fight is over, I'm afraid they will have nothing left. At that time, if they are obedient, they will leave them a way to live. If they are disobedient, it will be easy to deal with them.

Liu Xia said with a smile.

At this time, the generals in the big account looked sideways one after another.

It seems that Liu Xia is young, but she is absolutely cruel.

This method is the best way to subdue people without fighting. It can't help but reduce casualties and buy time.

So, many generals nodded one after another.

"Do you have any other opinions?"

Liu Xia asked at this time.

"I think the prince's method is the best. I will follow the prince's instructions."

At this time, Song Yuanshan first laughed.

At present, three generals agree one after another.

Then we discussed some specific details. About an hour later, everyone got up and left.

"General Duan, please stay."

Just as everyone was about to go out, Liu Xia suddenly said.

When Duan Lingxiao heard Liu Xia calling him, he was stunned first, and then waited there with his hands on his back.

After everyone left, Liu Xia said with a smile, "Brother Duan, can you get used to it when you come to Qiu County?"

"I've been the head of the barracks since I was a child. I've suffered a lot. I don't have to bother."

Duan Lingxiao didn't look at Liu Xia and said disdainfully.

"Oh, in this case, I will go straight to the point. This suppression of bandits is of great importance. I still say something in the front.

Liu Xia looked at his virtue and said coldly.

"Ha ha, the prince has something to say."

"Simple, I just want to ask you one thing. Will you do your best to suppress the bandits this time?"

Liu Xia asked lightly.

"I don't understand what the prince means. I am ordered to suppress bandits, and the prince is the commander. At the order of the prince, I will naturally recruit. The prince doesn't have to worry. I am a public and private person.

Duan Lingxiao glanced at Liu Xia and sneered.

"It turns out that you know that I am the commander, so I am really gratified. However, I don't think your attitude is as clear as public and private.

Liu Xia said angrily.

"Well, what does the prince mean?"

Duan Lingxiao looked up and asked.

"What do I mean, you know it in your heart. The matter between me and Lingling is our own business. If you don't like it, I have no right to interfere, but don't set my brother-in-law in front of me. From now on, you pack up and go back to Longdu as your young master. I will suppress the bandits without you.

Immediately, Liu Xia was furious.

Duan Lingxiao was directly stunned.

To be honest, Duan Lingxiao doesn't want to work with Liu Xia for a minute, and he is still a subordinate and can't wait to leave early.

However, he was ordered to suppress bandits, and he returned to Longdu in dismay. He had to be scolded to death by Prince Rui.

Moreover, this is definitely a joke. How can he meet people in the future?

It's just that Liu Xia said all the words to this. Does he really let him lick his face and plead for mercy?

For a moment, Duan Lingxiao was stunned and didn't know what to say.

In the final analysis, he does not have the courage to confront Liu Xia head-on, because, in terms of cultivation, he is not Liu Xia's opponent. Moreover, Liu Xia is a governor at this moment, and he has life and death to seize power. If he dares to turn against Liu Xia in the big tent of the Central Army, it is a big crime of conspiracy. This handle falls into the hands of Liu Xia, and Liu Xia may not know how to deal with him.

After hesitating for a moment, Duan Lingxiao could only kneel on the ground and say, "Please be kind to the prince. The last general is confused for a moment. I will never do it again in the future."

"Well, I hope so, don't get out of here!"

Liu Xia said angrily.

Duan Lingxiao could only come out of the big account in a hurry.

Liu Xia looked at his back and couldn't help showing a sneer at the corners of her mouth.

————————————————————————————

In the middle of the moon, in the territory of Yuntianling, it is dark.

However, in a pass in the southern foothills of Yuntianling, the lights are bright.

There are many bandits around the pass, which surrounds the whole pass area.

There is a very dilapidated ancient temple in the col. This temple is dedicated to the local mountain gods, but it is old and has not been repaired for a long time. Now it looks very messy.

In the temple, a gorgeous rock lamp bloomed a dazzling light, just like the day.

At this moment, Huang Long, who was sitting on the ground, couldn't help coughing twice. Against the light of the stone, his cheeks looked particularly pale.

Obviously, the duel with Liu Xia a few days ago suffered a great loss, and the injury has not recovered so far.

"Ha ha, Lord Huangzhai, is your injury not in the way?"

The speaker is a fat man who is not tall. He wears a gray collar shirt, with two eight-character beards at the corners of his mouth, and his eyes narrowed into a seam with a smile. This person is Zhao Wenzhi, the stewin-in-chief of the Juyi Gang, known as a smiling tiger.

Juyi Gang is a copycat alliance, so the stewmer is the top manager.

"Ha ha, I'm not in the way."

Huang Long said with a smile.

"Hmm."

At this time, sitting on the other side of Huanglong was a middle-aged man with a strong body, firm cheeks, thick eyebrows and big eyes snorted coldly.

This man has a very ferocious scar on his cheek. Looking at it, he looks very fierce.

This person is Qian Zhen, the owner of Tianlong Village.

Obviously, there is no deal between Qian Zhen and Huang Long. The two have been fighting in Yuntianling for so many years. Both of them are full of blood and debts. Naturally, they will not like him.

"Cough, two people, today, Huang called two people together. It is really imperative for the imperial court to suppress bandits, and we are imminent. I hope that we can put aside the grudges between each other and resist the army of the imperial court with all our strength. I don't know what you two like?"

Huang Long coughed twice and said bluntly.

"The court encircled and suppresses every year. In my opinion, there is no need to make a fuss this time. Lord Huangzhai, you wave your arms, and we will be the head of the horse. I will fully cooperate with the owner of Huangzhai.

At this time, Zhao Wenzhi hurriedly smiled.

Seeing that Qian Zhen did not speak, Huang Long asked curiously, "What about Qianzhai's idea?"

"Huang Long, let's get straight to the point. The imperial court suppresses bandits every year. You all send us to take the lead and hide in the deep mountains to watch the fun. This time, I won't be fooled by you again."

Qian Zhen said disdainfully.

"Don't worry, this time is different from the past. The general sent by the court this time was Liu Xia, who destroyed the Liang family in the northwest, that is, Prince Wei Yuan, the yin and yang master today. This person is not a good character to deal with, which is very different from the previous supervisors. We can't take it lightly. Therefore, I will send people to cooperate with the two of them to resist the bandit army of the imperial court. As long as they spend three or five months with them, they will retreat. At that time, will the whole Yuanpingzhou or our territory?

Huang Long hurriedly laughed.

"You speak well, I don't believe you. This time, unless you put your people on the front line, I won't cooperate with you.

Qian Zhen said disdainfully.

When Huang Long heard this, there was a trace of anger on his face. He got up and smiled faintly and said, "Master Qianzhai, this Liu Xia is not an ordinary person. When the northwest destroyed the Liang family, he sow the discord and connected it vertically and horizontally. This is his most common means. If I guess correctly, Liu Xia will definitely do it this time. First, destroy the Juyi Gang at all costs, and then edict you to deal with me. If we don't join hands at this moment, the consequences will only be a dead end. Has the owner of Qianzhai reached an agreement with Liu Xia?

"The surname is Huang, don't spit people here. I, Qian Zhen, will have nothing to do with those dog officials even if I die. On the contrary, the relationship between you and the imperial court is ambiguous, and I suspect that this is the Huangzhai master's trap to frame us!"

Qian Zhen suddenly slapped the table and got up and said angrily.

"Qian Zhen, I don't understand what you said."

Huang Long sneered.

"Is that so? Around Qiu County, the water and land are barren. The brothers of the owner of Zhaozhai and I have worked hard and can only eat and clothing. But look at your cottage, the food supply is sufficient, and the soldiers are well-armed. If you rely on fighting for the family and rob the house, how can you get these things? This time, don't expect me to be your shield. We, Tianlongzhai, will die with those dog officials in the imperial court, but we will not cooperate with villains like you.

At this point, Qian Zhen walked out of the gate.

In Huang Long's eyes, he couldn't help but be murderous and immediately drank: "Qian Zhen, as long as you step out of this threshold today, as soon as the officers and soldiers withdraw, I will let you stay in Tianlongzhai."

At this time, Qian Zhen turned around slowly and looked at Huang Long with a sneer and said, "You and I are all mountain thieves. Don't pretend to be a robber to scare me!" I don't know who died this time!"

Speaking of this, Qian Zhen left the temple without looking back.
