Chapter 472: The Battle of the Patio (7)

Li Yanneng didn't expect that this night would be very steady, without Zhou Jun's harassment, everything would be so smooth. This night was the most reassuring night he had ever spent, and during the day, the Zhou army attacked the city several times in a row, but it was in vain, and the morale of the Zhou army must have dropped to the extreme. And in this night, there was no night attack by the Zhou army at all, so he slept all night with peace of mind.

There is still some coolness in the early morning of spring, and it is even cooler in the Tianjing Guancheng, and there are countless heroic souls of the Great Zhou soldiers under the Tianjing Guancheng, and the spring breeze blows, and there are still bursts of ghostly shouts in the ears. The early morning of spring is also accompanied by bursts of mist, diffusing down from the Taihang Mountain, and the slightest coolness penetrates the spine.

Walking out of the camp, Li Yanneng stretched his waist for a long time, he slept very soundly and at ease this night, he felt that the ending was beginning to be clear, and everything was about to end. As long as the Great Zhou army withdraws, then he will once again make a great contribution. Obviously, this time he felt that he had made the right bet, as if the effect was at his fingertips.

What he didn't expect was that Yelu Wuji had been very quiet in the past few days, and he did not break into the homes of the people in the city again to kidnap those women. The courtyard was like an abyss, and there was a hint of horror in the silence, which made Li Yanneng not want to step into the courtyard at all. Except that he didn't want to enter the courtyard, the other Northern Han generals didn't want to enter either, they felt that the yin in that courtyard was even more palpitating than the yin under the courtyard gate.

Walking on this street, Li Yanneng unconsciously came to the door of the courtyard where Yelu Wuji lived. Looking at the slightly dilapidated gate, and the trace of eerie aura pouring out of the crack in the door, he couldn't help but shudder, he didn't know why he had come to this courtyard door to do it.

Faintly, there was a strong smell of blood stains that had been lingering for a long time from that courtyard, in order to let Yelu Wuji live in this courtyard, Li Yanneng originally wanted to give the owner of this courtyard some compensation. But what he didn't expect was that as soon as Yelu Wuji entered the courtyard, he raised his sword and fell, and the family of seven or eight in this courtyard became the souls of the sword.

Countless thoughts came to my mind, all of which were reasons not to let me go in, but I was still forced to raise my hand and push the wooden door. The foul smell of the nose mixed with the smell of blood, forming a new disgusting smell. made Li Yanneng's face change in an instant, he only felt a churning in his chest, and fortunately he hadn't eaten breakfast, otherwise he would definitely vomit upside down under this stimulation.

Resisting the urge to gag in his heart, he slightly supported the door frame, and then stabilized his body. How many people were killed by Yelu Wuji in this courtyard, and a creepy aura lingered in this courtyard for a long time.

He ordered that he did not bring any entourage, and he did not bring out any soldiers in the army, he just wanted to walk quietly by himself, and see the dangerous city of the pass that he had taken by sneak attack. This was a pride in his heart, and he didn't want to share it with anyone else, so he walked alone on the streets of this closed city.

Because the Northern Han Dynasty occupied Tianjing Pass and sealed the city, there were no pedestrians moving around this spring morning, only a few Northern Han soldiers patrolling the streets.

Walking into the courtyard, Li Yanneng found that Yelu Wuji was alone in front of the courtyard house, and his red clothes fluctuated slightly in the cold wind of the early morning, showing the nature of demons and evils. When he first saw Yelu Wuji, his face was full of anger and distorted countenance, and he looked so hideous and terrifying. At this time, Yelu Wuji's face was as calm as the deep water of the ancient pool, and he couldn't see a trace of fluctuations, and a gentle breath came out of his body.

Li Yanneng didn't know what happened to this Khitan master, he only felt that Yelu Wuji at this time was more palpitating and terrifying than Yelu Wuji who he had just welcomed into the city. At this time, Yelu Wuji was like a stinging poisonous snake, hiding all the vicious fangs, and if he wanted to move, he would be fatal and terrifying.

"General Li looks good, there must be something good, and it is rare that General Li still remembers to come to visit a certain family in this courtyard. In the past few days, I have been fortunate to be taken care of by General Li, and a certain family is grateful. Yelu Wuji saw Li Yanneng walk into the courtyard, he slowly turned around and said lightly.

"It is a blessing for Li to meet Master Yelu. It's just a trivial matter, and Li is willing to serve. Li Yanneng showed a stupid look on his face, how could he not hear what this Khitan master was saying. Although he was extremely jealous of this moody Khitan master, and he didn't have any good feelings, the other party was a famous martial arts master, and he could only compliment him in his words.

"Well, if a certain family asks General Li again, I wonder if General Li can help a certain family again?" Yelu Wuji's face flashed a trace of strangeness, but it quickly recovered, the strangeness on his face was only for a moment, and Li Yanneng did not notice the subtle changes on the other party's face.

"Although Master Yelu commands, Li must go all out." Li Yanneng had a glimmer of joy in his heart, if he could get a favor from this Khitan master, his status in the Northern Han Dynasty would be rising. He knew that his merit in the surprise attack on Tianjing Pass was far less than that of this Khitan master to say a few good words in front of His Majesty.

"I just want General Li to help a certain family keep an eye on two people, a young man, fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed in a blue shirt, often carrying an unsheathed iron sword, and a woman, dressed in white and white dress, with this young man. As soon as General Li knew the whereabouts of these two people, he immediately told a certain family, and other matters were left alone. ”

"It's so easy to do, as long as these two people appear in Tianjing City, and someone from Li's department sees it, Li will definitely tell Master Yelu as soon as possible." Li Yanneng didn't expect it to be such a simple matter, he thought it was something big or something he was embarrassed about, so he replied to the other party very happily.

Li Yanneng himself didn't know how he left the courtyard, maybe it was the fear of Yelu Wuji in his heart, or maybe Yelu Wuji had no interest in talking to him, so he left the courtyard. When he walked out of the courtyard, he breathed a long sigh of relief, the atmosphere in the courtyard was too oppressive, even if it was like him galloping on the battlefield and killing people like hemp. He couldn't resist the oppressive feeling of gloomy and bloody in the courtyard, and the feeling in that courtyard was terrifying.

When he returned to the barracks with a terrifying aura, he saw the excited eyes of several of his subordinates. At this moment, he remembered that he had forgotten to ask about the Great Zhou army, and when he learned the news that the Great Zhou army had withdrawn, he felt that the big stone that was pressing on him had fallen.

Early in the morning, the scouts of the Northern Han army went out of the city to explore the Zhou military camp, and when they came to the Zhou military camp, they found that the Zhou military camp was empty. And they pursued dozens of miles to the south, but still did not find any trace of the Zhou army, so they realized that the Great Zhou army had withdrawn overnight.

Suddenly, the Northern Han military camp in Tianjing Pass City was boiling, they didn't expect to block the tens of thousands of troops of the Great Zhou, and they didn't expect that the Great Zhou army would retreat so completely. The officers and soldiers of the Northern Han Army could not hide the hot smiles on their faces, they did not expect this credit to be so simple.

The news of the withdrawal of the Great Zhou army blew through the entire Tianjing Pass like that spring breeze, and the hopeful people of Tianjing Pass fell into panic again. Originally, he was full of hope for the Great Zhou to recover Tianjing Pass, but he didn't expect that it would be such an ending, and Da Zhou only launched an attack on Tianjing Pass for two or three days before giving up, and the shadow that shrouded the hearts of the people of Tianjing Pass was a little thicker than the dark clouds in the sky.

Ma Chenghui and the widow of the Zhang family no longer discussed about the demon, and no one mentioned the events of that night again, of course, Ma Chenghui's heart was still warm. Since he said that categorically manly words, that night, the widow of the Zhang family, who was as fierce as a fierce woman, showed a gentleness like this spring breeze. That night, Ma Chenghui understood what tenderness was, he had never worked so hard as he did that night, until he was exhausted and fell asleep.

It's just that what Ma Chenghui didn't expect was that early in the morning, there was a person in Widow Zhang's courtyard, and it was a deputy general of the Northern Han Army. At the beginning, Ma Chenghui had already picked up a fist-sized long stick in his hand, and looked at the deputy general of the Northern Han Dynasty as if he was facing a great enemy. Although the widow had no expression on her face, her eyes had made no secret of her horror, and her body trembled slightly and hid behind Ma Chenghui.

"Old Ma, it's me." When the deputy general of the Northern Han Army saw Ma Chenghui's formation, he hurriedly shouted. He then took off his helmet, revealing a lean face.

When Ma Chenghui saw that face, his heart was stunned, and the long stick he was holding gently put down. There was incomprehensible doubt in his eyes, and his body trembled with excitement. He didn't expect to meet his old friend here, or his brother in the Sparrow Camp.

"Brother Yuan, how could it be you, you didn't die. How did you become the adjutant general of the Northern Han Army? Ma Chenghui was so excited that he was incoherent. He finally met the brother in the Flying Sparrow Camp in this besieged city, and it was Yuan Xiaoliu, he didn't expect that there was still a surviving brother.

Yuan Xiaoliu didn't speak, he glanced at Widow Zhang behind Ma Chenghui,

"You go in first." Ma Chenghui immediately understood, he turned to Widow Zhang and commanded, and the widow Zhang knew that the comer was acquainted with Ma Chenghui, and the horror in her eyes gradually dissipated. She heard Ma Chenghui's command but was obedient, turned around like a docile kitten and walked into the house.

"Old Ma, your kid is not shallow, there are peach blossoms in the tiger's den in Longtan." Yuan Xiaoliu stepped forward and patted Ma Chenghui's shoulders and quipped. In this besieged city, the Flying Bird Battalion sent to the north was basically folded in this Tianjing Guancheng, and it was a miracle that they could survive, how could this not make them feel a lot of emotion in their hearts.

"Don't talk about me, let's talk about you." Ma Chenghui didn't feel that his old face was red, he didn't want to make any more excuses in such a matter, and his identity couldn't bring any happiness to the widow. And he didn't know how to face it in the future, he didn't know how to talk to Zhao Kuangyin about it, and he didn't know if he was right or wrong to do this, so he didn't want to explain too much about it.

"My story is long, that day we entered the city and the Northern Han army was attacking, and in the chaos, our brothers in the Flying Sparrow Camp were scattered. The dead and wounded, the captured and caught, and I don't know how many of the brothers of the Flying Sparrow Battalion are still alive. Yuan Xiaoliu sighed and then said: "I am because I look as similar to a lieutenant general of the Northern Han Army, I caught the lieutenant general and said some words. Then I killed the deputy general and destroyed the corpse, and then I became the deputy general of the Northern Han Army, you say this is really evil. ”

"In addition to you and me, are there any other brothers alive, and how many brothers have been arrested, you should know some of these, right?"

"Actually, I don't know, then Li Yanneng only believes in his own henchmen, and I don't know where the arrested brother is being held." Yuan Xiaoliu said helplessly, and his answer poured down from Ma Chenghui's head like a drop of cold water.
