In the Luoyang City Mansion, under the leadership of the black-faced man, Hong Chengchou met the garrison Sima Yu as he wished.

After the black-faced man said goodbye, he retreated by himself, and Sima Yu and Hong Chengchou were left in the lobby. Hong Chengchou today is different from the past, he is already an ordinary person, and he should have saluted first in the face of the garrison Sima Yu.

But Hong Chengchou originally wanted to let go of the shackles in his heart and persuade Sima Yu not to do foolish things. Helplessly, the moment he saw Sima Yu, he remembered that he had become a scapegoat for the black cauldron.

Unable to pull off this face for a while, Hong Chengchou stood straight in front of Sima Yu, unable to even open his mouth, and his face was even more uncertain.

Sima Yu sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he still smiled hypocritically: "Mr. Hong is here, Sima has not come far to greet him, I'm really sorry!" ”

Hong Chengchou stared at Sima Yu for a long time, then suddenly sighed lightly and said coldly: "You and I are both understanding people, I believe you also know why I want to see you, so there is no need to make these hypocritical things." ”

Sima Yu immediately sneered: "Forgive this official for being ignorant, I really don't know what happened to Mr. Hong's arrival?" ”

Seeing that Sima Yu was going to pretend to be confused to the end, Hong Chengchou no longer hid it, and said bluntly: "Now that I have accepted my fate, I don't want to pursue anything." I just came here this time to find out one thing, how did those Jinyi guards die, and who was the murderer? ”

"What? Are you suspicious of this officer? A trace of murderous aura suddenly flashed in Sima Yu's eyes, but he quickly hid it.

"Hmph, the clean one is self-purifying, and the white one is confessing, if the adult has not done something wrong, why should he take the matter on himself?" Hong Chengchou couldn't suppress the anger in his heart at the moment, and began to fight-for-tat.

Sima Yu laughed out loud at this time, and the arrogant laughter echoed in the hall, making Hong Chengchou frown again and again.

After a long time, the laughter stopped, Sima Yu got up coldly, came straight to Hong Chengchou, and said very disdainfully: "What are you, it is your turn to question this official." ”

Seeing that Hong Chengchou in front of him was now an old man on the verge of death, Sima Yu was no longer interested in talking to him at all.

Hong Chengchou's face changed drastically, and in the face of Sima Yu's sarcasm, he found that he was speechless. With his current identity as nothing, he is indeed not qualified to question him in front of Sima Yu.

After a long time, Hong Chengchou let out a light sigh again: "I have already stated before, I don't want to pursue anything?" Just trying to get things straight, ask one to understand. ”

didn't expect that he would have such a depressed day, Hong Chengchou was trying his best to endure the anger in his heart and try to calm his tone.

But no matter how patient he was, it couldn't change the fact that he was already a civilian. Now he wants to get the answer he wants from Sima Yu, all based on Sima Yu's preferences.

He can say it if he wants to, but if he doesn't want to say it, Hong Chengchou has no choice, the tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs, this is the true portrayal of Hong Chengchou at the moment.

"Hmph, you can go back to your hometown with peace of mind, no one will have trouble with you. It's a pity that you are also a person who has been an official in the court for some years, why don't you understand the rules here? ”

After Sima Yu finished speaking, he shook his hand and left, and before leaving, he did not forget to order someone to put Hong Chengchou in prison, along with the family members and subordinates who came with him, all of them were cleared and detained.

Hong Chengchou is now just an old man who is nothing, so naturally he will not be allowed to have any chance of ruining his good future.

Today, Hong Chengchou bumped into the door in a daze, and he didn't need to be polite, if Li Jie of Hancheng wanted to be angry for him after he was arrested, Sima Yu could be regarded as having a hostage in hand.

After Hong Chengchou entered the mansion, the spies of the Dongjiang Army who stayed in Luoyang City immediately reported the news to Mao Wenlong, who was staying in Longmen Mountain.

When Mao Wenlong learned about it, he laughed and immediately led his troops to Luoyang City.

Halfway through, Xu Fuzuo asked Mao Wenlong very uncertainly: "Are we really going to attack Luoyang City?" ”

Once Luoyang is really openly attacked, it means that Adou and the 20,000 Dongjiang troops will really become rogues. In the future, it will be the target of the imperial court's crusade, which means that their comfortable life has come to an end.

Mao Wenlong glanced at Xu Fuzuo, and said with a smile: "Fight, you have to fight." Now is the time for you to show yourself, and Shaanxi can hand over to Li Zicheng to attract the firepower of the imperial court. As for you, just hide in Henan Mansion and make a lot of money, develop well, don't be too dazzling, remember the golden mean. ”

Adou's worries were different from Xu Fuzuo's, when he heard that Luoyang City was going to be attacked, he was very excited, and immediately opened his mouth and asked: "General soldier, after attacking Luoyang City, can we stay in the city in the future." No longer need to hide in the mountains and forests like now. ”

Mao Wenlong smiled and nodded: "Yes, after you occupy Luoyang City, you can settle down there." The premise is that you must be sure to withstand the counterattack of the imperial army. In any case, Luoyang is also a very important city, and the imperial court will not give up or ignore it easily. ”

An army of 20,000 rushed to Luoyang City, and Sima Yu, who was in the city, soon received the news. There is an unidentified army that is rushing towards Luoyang City at great speed.

Without any hesitation, Sima Yu immediately ordered the city gate to be closed, and the whole city entered a state of combat readiness. The defenders of the city climbed the walls one after another, and all kinds of equipment were transported at the same time.

In the early morning of the next day, the 20,000 Dongjiang Army led by Mao Wenlong disguised as rogue arrived three miles outside Luoyang.

After the army settled down and rested for a while, Adou was ordered to ride alone to the city of Luoyang, shot a letter with a plopping bow and arrow, and then returned quickly.

The officers and soldiers in the city quickly took down the letter tied to the arrow and presented it to Sima Yu.

There was no signature on the envelope, and Sima Yu hurriedly opened the envelope. I saw that there were only eight big characters on the letterhead, and it was written: "Abandon the city and surrender, spare you from death!" ”

"Bastard!"

The furious Sima Yu tore the letter to shreds on the spot.

"Adult ......"

Yunluo didn't know what was going on, and shouted nervously.

Sima Yu's face was hideous, and he said viciously: "It's just too deceitful, order the whole army, dare to come to attack the city, no matter who kills." ”

"Yes!" Yunluo didn't dare to slack off, and immediately hurried to make arrangements.

Mao Wenlong was three miles outside the city and listened to the reports of several spies who had come back from investigating the situation. After learning about the defense of Luoyang City, he discussed with Adou and Xu Fujuan.

"What do you think is the best way to storm the city?" Mao Wenlong was the first to speak.
