On the official road from Huzhou County to Luye City, a mighty force of five thousand troops and horses, led by Tongque Xiaowei Zhonglai, Sun Jiangdong, Song Yulan, and Su Yiwen, headed straight for Luye City. This army was still far from Luye City.

Thirty miles away, there was a cavalry team of about thirty people on the road, blocking the path of Zhong Lai and others. This team of about thirty people, all carrying swords on their backs, looked very majestic.

The person sitting on the leading horse, with a white face and no beard, sat firmly on the horse, looked at the team from Huzhou County, and asked loudly: "Excuse me, are you from Huzhou County, are you going to Luye City to suppress the bandits?

?”

When the Tongque Captain came back and saw someone blocking the way in front of him, he quickly stopped the team, clapped his horse and stepped forward. He pressed the handle of the waist knife with his left hand and asked sternly: "We are the team from Huzhou to Luye City to suppress bandits. You

Who dares to block the way of the imperial soldiers? Tell me your name!"

The man said calmly: "My name is Cheng Yuanfeng. I come from Prince Wei's Mansion in Anshu County. On orders from Prince Wei, I mobilize Huzhou County soldiers and horses to quell the rebellion! Who are you? Tell me your name so that I can kill Prince Wei."

Leave the order to you!"

When Zhonglai heard that it was the envoy from Prince Wei's Mansion, he quickly rolled off his horse, held the reins with his left hand, and said with cupped hands: "I am Chonglai, Captain Tongque of Huzhou County. Please tell me, since you are coming from Prince Wei's Mansion, do you have any

King Wei’s general order or letter? Otherwise, it will be hard for me to obey my orders if I make empty statements!"

Cheng Yuanfeng jumped off his horse, reached out and took out a scroll of the royal decree from his arms, handed it to Zhonglai with both hands, and said with a smile: "Since I am here, how come I don't have the order of the king of Wei? Lieutenant Zhonglai, please take a look!"

Zhonglai took the order from King Wei from Cheng Yuanfeng, looked at it carefully, and found that the seal was not bad at all. He was immediately relieved and said with cupped hands: "Since Mr. Cheng is coming from King Wei's Mansion, boss, no, how is your health?

I heard that the prince suffered from aphansia a while ago, I wonder how he is doing now!"

Cheng Yuanfeng clasped his fists to the side and said respectfully: "Your Majesty's golden body is now in good health. Come back, captain, these five thousand men and horses you brought will probably capture Luye City! Your Majesty is now in Jianzhou, Jian

The prefecture was surrounded by the people of Niu Mandi, the governor of the state. Niu Mandi had already rebelled and wanted to kill the prince! Therefore, following the order of the King of Wei, I intercepted the reinforcements from Huzhou County and captured Luye City directly.

Rather than being used by cattle all over the land.”

Zhonglai took a breath of cold air. He didn't expect the matter to be so serious, but he still nodded, "Okay, since the prince has an order, how dare I disobey it? Niu Mandi wanted to rebel against the court, hehe, what a coincidence.

Unfortunately, Mr. Zhonglai met him. I will discipline Mr. Zhonglai to make it difficult for him to fly! Where is my cousin Jiang Zhenyu? Is he in Anshu or Jianzhou? "

Cheng Yuanfeng said: "Zhong Xiaowei, when I came here, I heard that Jiang Xiaowei was bewitched by some evil spell in Jianzhou. He is now unconscious and in danger, so the palace has made a plan and asked the three counties to come and suppress it.

The bandits' troops directly captured Luye City, forcing Niu Mandi's troops in Jianzhou to return to defense."

Zhong Lai was startled and asked repeatedly: "What, what, what? Jiang Zhenyu has been hit by a magic spell and is unconscious and in danger? Do you know how many troops Luye City sent to surround Jianzhou?"

Cheng Yuanfeng thought for a while and replied: "When I came, I heard that Luye City sent more than 10,000 troops to Jianzhou. I don't know the situation now. I don't know if Luye City has sent more troops to Jianzhou. If so,

, then it will be more, at least not less than 12,000 troops."

When he heard what Cheng Yuanfeng said again, he felt worried. His brother was surrounded by people in Jianzhou, and he still didn't know whether he was alive or dead. How could he delay this? He quickly handed over to Cheng Yuanfeng, "Mr. Cheng, please wait here for a moment. I will go and talk to Sun."

Let’s discuss this with the captain!” Zhonglai got on his horse in a hurry and headed straight towards the central army.

Sun Jiangdongzheng was chatting with Song Yulan and Su Yiwen. When he saw Chongqi coming back, he asked with a smile: "Who is so bold and dares to block the way of the officers and soldiers?"

Zhonglai sighed and said: "It's the messenger from the palace of King Wei. He said that King Wei was trapped in Jianzhou by the army of many men and horses. My cousin Jiang Zhenyu was also in Jianzhou. He was hit by a witchcraft and is now unconscious.

Ah! The envoy from Prince Wei's Mansion said, let us take the opportunity to capture Luye City directly and force them to return to defense, so as to break the siege of Jianzhou!"

As soon as they heard that Fatty Jiang had been bewitched and was in danger of losing consciousness, the Fatty's two fiancees panicked. Su Yiwen cursed: "Our Fatty is almost dead, who cares about Luye City! Cousin, let's hurry up.

Let's raise troops and rush to Jianzhou, first to relieve the siege of Jianzhou, and secondly to rescue our fat man! If we capture Luye City, they will simply abandon Luye, aren't we being blinded?"

Song Yulan nodded and said: "Well, what Yiwen said is very reasonable. When urgent matters arise, it is better for us to abandon Luye City and go straight to Jianzhou! They did not expect that we would attack Jianzhou, and we just caught them off guard!

It can relieve the siege and save people. It kills two birds with one stone. Why not do it? As for the soldiers and horses from other counties coming to help, I gave Luye City to them to fight. I don't believe it. Luye City has an iron wall and others can fight it.

Won’t come down?”

He looked at Sun Jiangdong again, "Old Sun, what do you think?"

Sun Jiangdong was happy, "What can I say? The minority must obey the majority! Besides, my brother Tang Jiusheng is still in Jianzhou, and the fat man is also unconscious. How can we waste time here? Let's go quickly.

, why are you asking! What kind of messenger came from Prince Wei’s Mansion? I think I’ll just take him with me! Since Jianzhou needs us, we can’t wait or delay!”

The four of them discussed it and came to the front of the army together. Cheng Yuanfeng was waiting. When he saw the four of them coming out together, Zhongli quickly introduced Sun Jiangdong, Song Yulan, and Su Yiwen to Cheng Yuanfeng. The two sides met with each other, and Zhonglai shared their opinions.

There was a slight embarrassment on Cheng Yuanfeng's face, "Come back, General, after all, I am following the king's orders, and I ask you to seize the city here. It is still unclear who will win in Luye City now."

Su Yiwen was anxious, "You are an interesting official, but you will be away from home, and your life will be affected. We have already had a meeting to discuss it, and now we are going to Jianzhou to rescue the siege. You can also take your men with you! We will discuss the situation in the future

Explain it to the prince so that no one will hold you responsible in the future!"

Seeing what they said, Cheng Yuanfeng couldn't refute, so he nodded and said: "In that case, please include us in the team. We will be with you."

All we have to do is go to Jianzhou to rescue the prince! Anyway, King Wei is everyone’s king, and everyone must do their part.”

He was overjoyed and patted Cheng Yuanfeng on the shoulder, "Brother, you are very courageous, I like it! Do you have a daughter? If so, let's have a little drink on the roadside and let's recognize each other as in-laws.

I will marry your daughter to my son in the future. Well, judging from your tender skin and tender flesh, your daughter should be pretty good!"

Cheng Yuanfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This Captain Zhongji was really talented. He would act in any play that came to his mind. He really didn't pick the script. Sun Jiangdong hurriedly stepped forward to stop Zhongji and said, "Okay, okay, okay, restart again."

Brother, you are not a good drinker, you get drunk easily, so drink less! Let’s go quickly, rescue the prince, and let’s have a good drink, okay?”

Zhonglai nodded and said: "Okay, what you said is correct. Let's set off and walk past Luye City. Be careful not to alert the snake! Otherwise, Niu Mandi will add more troops to Jianzhou, which will be even more troublesome!"

Sun Jiangdong sneered, "Let's just say we saw the gangster and keep chasing him. Don't look back no matter how you shout. How will he know when we pass Luye City and run all the way to Jianzhou? Soldiers are very fast and there is no time to waste. Let's go.

, let’s set off to rescue King Wei!”

The five thousand soldiers and horses from Huzhou County suddenly changed their direction and headed straight for Jianzhou. They did not do any harm to the counties and villages they passed by. Everyone praised them, saying that this was a teacher of benevolence and righteousness! After hearing this,

The common people praised themselves so much that they were so beautiful that their noses almost burst with snot. The army was in a hurry and rarely rested on the way. It rushed to Jianzhou day and night.

Besides, the three thousand soldiers and horses from Jiangzhou County, led by the school captain Cheng Rugao, first passed through the Lingya Mountains and then crossed the Yedu River in the hinterland of Jiannan. They were still more than a hundred miles away from Luye City.

While walking, there was a cavalry team of more than thirty people blocking the way. Cheng Rugao stepped forward to answer. The other party took out the order of the King of Wei and conveyed the King of Wei's decree, saying that Niu Mandi had openly rebelled, and now three thousand soldiers and horses from Jiangzhou were mobilized.

Capture Luye Castle.

Cheng Rugao got the king's order and sneered. How difficult is it to seize a small Luye City? He immediately went to urge the troops and went straight to Luye City. At this time, Fulu Primary School came to report and captured dozens of people on good horses.

The man was suspected of being a thief, so Cheng Rugao ordered him to be pushed forward. There was not much time, and the soldiers pushed a few leaders forward.

The person at the front was an old scholar with a rich education in Eguan. He had a wide face and a somewhat yellow skin. He turned out to be Niu Mandi's chief adviser Luo Bingshang. Luo Bingshang had just returned from Yin Quan.

On the way, he accidentally bumped into Jiangzhou's army horse and was captured. Next to Luo Bingshang were He Lidong and Fan Weihong, the two guards of the military envoy's yamen. They were both captured together, and fifty cavalry were taken into custody.

to the back.

Luo Bingshang glared and said: "I am the aide of Master Niu, the manager of strategy, how dare you ignore me like this?"

Cheng Rugao was not polite, and slapped him with a big mouth. Luo Bingshang screamed after being beaten. Cheng Rugao looked at Luo Bingshang sideways and asked: "Are you an aide to the manager? That's great!
