    A quarter of an hour passed in the blink of an eye. Under the leadership of Qin Qiong and Gao Li, two thousand cavalry put on the uniforms of the Yan army, lined up sparsely, and escorted a spacious carriage toward Yingzhou City.  , at this time, their clothes were messy, dusty, and with frowning and listless looks, even ordinary people could tell that they had suffered a defeat.

    The sun is gradually setting in the west, and the afterglow reflects the clouds in the sky red, which is really gorgeous. At the same time, although the walls of Yingzhou City are slightly vicissitudes, they are also more peaceful. Looking at the Yingzhou City that is getting closer and closer.  , Gao Li's heart was full of bitterness and loneliness,

    He was so high-spirited when he set out from the north gate of Yingzhou a few days ago. He even imagined that he would be happy to be captured alive and become famous. Unfortunately, all his ambitions were wiped out overnight.

    He was knocked down in the battle with Gao Xing. He was seriously injured in the battle with Qin Qiong and suffered a complete defeat. Now he has become a piece of meat on Qin Qiong's chopping board. He is at his mercy and unable to resist.

    "Alert, someone is coming, alert."

    Following a scream, the soldiers at the top of the city who were lazily leaning against the wall, chatting and resting, all poked their heads out to look outside the city, their faces slightly panicked. The general at the top of the city shouted loudly and urgently: "Guan  City gate, close the city gate quickly.¡±

    "Don't panic, we are our own people."

    "It's the governor, the governor is back."

    Just as the guards in front of the city gate hurriedly closed the heavy city gate, someone on the top of the city finally recognized the flag carried by Gao Li and his party, a big "Gao" character. The style was not that of Gao Baoning, right?

    "The governor came back so quickly, but he defeated the Khitan and captured Gao Xing alive."

    "There were 80,000 people when we went there. Why are there only so many people now? And they all look listless, as if they were mourning for their heirs. Could something have happened?"

    After finding out that it was one of their own, the defenders on the city immediately relaxed. They watched Gao Li and his entourage getting closer and talked about it. Their hearts were full of confusion.

    It didn¡¯t take long, and Gao Li and his entourage arrived and stood a stone¡¯s throw outside the city.

    "Who is under the city? Stop quickly and tell me your name." Although he saw that he was one of his own, the guard on the city did not take it lightly. He frowned and asked,

    "Gao Li, I believe you are a smart man and will make a wise choice." Beside Gao Li, Qin Qiong, who was dressed in ordinary infantry clothes, gently put his hand on the handle of the knife at his waist and stared at it quietly.  The mottled walls of Yingzhou City said lightly,

    Gao Li was lazily on the horse, his gray cheeks twitching slightly. After taking a deep breath, he raised his head, licked his dry lips, and said in a hoarse voice: "General Li, I am Gao Li."  Li, don¡¯t you recognize your brother?¡±

    "Brother Gao." The general was startled, and hurriedly leaned out half of his body from behind the arrow stack, stared at it for a moment, and couldn't help but said in surprise: "It's really you, Brother Gao, what happened, Brother Gao?"  You are in such a mess, where is the governor?" As he said that, the general looked around, looking for Gao Baoning.

    "well,."

    A deep sigh, endless bitterness, "Brother Li, this is a long story. Please open the door first and let me in. The governor is seriously injured and needs medical treatment as soon as possible."

    "What." The guard on the city suddenly looked shocked and said with some disbelief: "The governor is very skilled in martial arts and is protected by experts, how could he be injured?"

    "Brother Li, you will know after you see for yourself." Gao Li smiled bitterly, got off his horse, staggered to the carriage, raised the curtain,

    General Li looked closely and saw a general lying quietly in the carriage. Judging from the armor, there was no doubt that it was Gao Baoning. Moreover, blood could still be seen faintly between his chest and abdomen.

    "How could this happen?" General Li muttered to himself in panic, and the guards around him were in an uproar when they heard that Gao Baoning was seriously injured.

    "Brother Li, this is the token given to me by the governor. Please see if it's authentic." After saying that, Gao Li took out a golden token from his arms and held it high above his head, shining in the sunset.  Hui,

    "Brother Gao, it's your duty. I hope you'll forgive me. The governor is seriously injured. Come in quickly." With that, General Li waved his hand fiercely and said: "Open the city gate." After that, he hurried towards the bottom of the city.  ,

    Putting the token back in his arms, Gao Li glanced at Qin Qiong. After he nodded, he calmed down and walked towards the slowly opening city gate.

    When Gao Li and others arrived at the city gate, General Li trotted out and led hundreds of soldiers to greet him. Before he could get close, he asked anxiously: "Brother Gao, where is the governor injured? How serious is it?"  Chong, I have ordered someone to invite the best doctor in the city, please follow me into the city quickly."

    ? ?Before the sound was heard, General Li arrived in front of Gao Li and others, looking at the driver with a worried look on his face.

    "Brother Li, don't worry too much. The governor only suffered some superficial injuries, but this time he returned with a huge defeat and all 80,000 troops were lost overnight. The governor was inevitably a little depressed, which led to him falling into a coma."

    While whispering, Gao Li raised the car curtain again with some trembling. General Li's heart was all about Gao Baoning, but he didn't notice the look of guilt and struggle flashing in Gao Li's eyes.

    "My Lord Governor, what are you doing?"

    General Li leaned forward and looked inside the car. However, he swallowed the rest of his words and his face suddenly became extremely ugly.

    "You are not the governor, who are you?" Licking his lips, General Li glanced at the delicate, small, very cold golden scimitar in front of his throat. He did not dare to move rashly, but his eyes were fixed on the knife.  The young man gritted his teeth and asked,

    "If you don't want to die, just be honest and obedient and don't ask any more questions." Xiao Ling said firmly, his cold eyes without a trace of emotion swept over General Li, which immediately made him smart, and a flash of horror could not help but flash in his eyes.

    At Xiao Ling's signal, General Li slowly stood up straight and looked at Gao Li, who was standing next to him with his hands hanging down and a gray face. He couldn't help but get angry and lowered his voice and reprimanded: "Gao Li, you are a despicable and shameless person.  , you actually betrayed the Governor and led the wolf into the house, how can you deserve the courtesy of the Governor and the kindness of His Highness King Yan?"

    Xiao Ling frowned suddenly and thrust the scimitar in his hand forward. The slight sting in his throat suddenly stopped General Li's voice.

    "Gao Baoning is dead. Whether you live or die is all up to you in a single thought. I will give you three breaths to decide." After saying that, Xiao Ling gently took back the Golden Moon Scimitar.

    Although Xiao Ling was not staring at him, General Li was still like a thorn in his back. He was sweating profusely and his heart was in a state of confusion that could not be calmed down.

    "The governor is dead, how is it possible?" For him, this news was a shock. The shock was too much for him to accept. Calculating the time, Gao Baoning had just arrived in Khitan territory, how could he die?

    "Gao Li, tell me where the governor is." General Li suddenly turned around and looked at Gao Li, his expression a little anxious and hopeful.

    "Brother Li, I'm sorry." Gao Li shook his head sadly, then took out the token from his arms and handed it to General Li.

    "No, it's impossible." General Li was shocked, and his face changed suddenly. This golden token is indeed owned by Gao Baoning. Unless he delivers it personally, there is only one possibility that this token will fall into the hands of others. Look at Gao Li's expression.  , the result is obviously the latter,

    "The three-breath time has passed, have you thought about it?"

    General Li suddenly came to his senses, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes, and he was about to touch the hilt of the sword at his waist with his right hand. However, as soon as he moved his hand, Xiao Ling's right hand fell on his shoulder.  The seemingly slender and thin palms were filled with tremendous force. The pressure made General Li stagger, his legs weakened, and he almost fell to the ground.

    "If you want the soldiers in the city to die innocently and their families to die without a burial place, just resist." Xiao Ling glanced at General Li lightly and said, "The knife in my hand drank one thousand eight hundred and thirty-one blood last night.  I just made it up today, but I don¡¯t know if there are 169 heads in your residence.¡±

    As he spoke, Xiao Ling couldn't help but reveal a faint smile. The pupils of General Li's eyes suddenly shrank, large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his breathing became disordered and heavy. After many years of military service, General Li  You could clearly feel the frightening evil aura on Xiao Ling's body. Only those who had walked out of the blood sea of ??Zishi Mountain would have such an aura. He had no doubts about the authenticity of what Xiao Ling said.

    Looking at General Li, whose face was constantly changing, Gao Li said in a low voice: "Brother Li, the governor has been defeated, and His Highness King Yan is helpless. In order to follow your brother, I have wronged you."

    General Li closed his eyes sadly, looked up to his commander and sighed: "God's will is like this, what else can I ask for." After a long time, he opened his eyes, looked directly at Xiao Ling and said: "Your Excellency, you must promise me to treat my subordinates well, otherwise even if  I won't hesitate to take five steps to get blood splattered."

    "They can be considered benevolent and righteous people." Xiao Ling secretly praised them in his heart and nodded: "As long as they don't resist or make trouble, I will love and protect them as Daqi people."

    "I'm glad that the name of the young prince's benevolence is known to the world, and I will trust you." General Li was straightforward. After speaking, he took off the sword from his waist and handed it to Gao Li, and walked towards the city with his head held high.

    "Enter the city."

    With Qin Qiong¡¯s order, the dejected temperament of the two thousand people suddenly changed, and a fierce aura suddenly rose into the sky. General Li, who was walking at the forefront, suddenly feltSurprised, the fists in his sleeves tightened slightly.

    Just now he noticed something abnormal, but he was worried that Gao Baoning had not investigated carefully. Now he finally understood where this feeling came from. If he refused to surrender, I am afraid these people would immediately rush into the city, and I am afraid there will be more after them.  There will be cavalry following, and by then Yingzhou City may not be safe.

    Thinking of this, General Li couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Because he surrendered without a fight, the anger and resentment of being threatened could not help but dissipate a little.

    In the stunned and puzzled eyes of the defenders on the city, Qin Qiong and his party entered the city safely and successfully took over the Yingzhou city defense. Half a quarter of an hour later, six thousand cavalry hidden in the camp entered the city in a mighty manner. At this point, Yingzhou  The city fell into Gao Xing's hands without any bloodshed,
