A quarter of an hour later, outside the city of Danzhou, by the moat.

Huang Youwei took the lead and shouted: "Brothers at the head of the city, listen to the truth, the lord of Pingyang County, Radamizhu, the author Lang Cui Geng, open the city gate quickly." ”

Radamizhu was named the lord of Pingyang by Wu Zetian because of his meritorious service in saving the driver, so Huang Youwei was called so.

"Cui Qingtian was really rescued? That's great! ”

"Ji people have their own natural appearance, I'll just say, the Khitan dog can't help us Cui Qingtian."

"The lord of Radamizhu has also been rescued, and as soon as the Turkic army arrives, those Khitan dogs will be finished."

……

The soldiers at the head of the city were overjoyed and exchanged ears. The sentry commander Shang Jie rushed away and reported to Tan Mingli, the guard at the north gate.

Tan Mingli went up to the city tower and saw that the two hundred cavalry were lined up neatly, although they were wearing Tang Army uniforms, most of them were familiar faces, and there was no doubt at the moment.

He said happily: "Open the door!" Open the city gate and let Cui Shu in! In addition, Shang Jie, you go to the governor's mansion again and report the good news to Master Di! ”

"Whoa!"

Shang Jie sped away again.

It is said to be "open the city gate quickly", but in fact, it is not fast. In order to guard against the Khitans, the gate of Danzhou has long been blocked by sacks filled with sand and stones.

It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that the sacks were cleared.

With a wave of his hand, Tan Mingli was ready to order the city gate to be opened.

But at this moment—

"Wait! I'll see who dares to open the door! ”

With a loud shout, surrounded by a group of warriors, two Great Zhou officials, Yiwen and Wuwu, walked up to the city tower.

Tan Mingli knows both of these people, one is named Li Liangbi, and the other is called Qi Si Biyu.

Li Liangbi is the "Li Shizhi" who was forced to eat in the Turks, he was first demoted by Wu Zetian to the order of Zhenyuan County, and later joined the army as the secretary of Danzhou.

Qi Si Biyu is a general under Li Duozuo, and like Li Duozuo, he is also a Yan Ya.

Tan Mingli frowned slightly, and said unhappily: "Outside is Cui Shu and Pingyang County Lord, why don't you let this official open the city gate?" ”

Li Liangbi snorted coldly and said, "What is Cui's book and the county lord of Pingyang?" Who told you that? Do they have a complaint from the officials? ”

"Farewell ......"

Tan Mingli was so angry that he rolled his eyes - who didn't know that Cui Geng and Radamizhu were taken away by the Khitans, how could there be anything by their side?

However, although Li Liangbi's rank in the army is not high, he has the authority to supervise the civil and military officials in Danzhou, and Tan Mingli is angry again, and he has to give a reasonable explanation.

He took a deep breath and said, "Although Cui Shu and Pingyang County Lord did not tell him, but he had Captain Huang Youwei to prove their identity, so what else could he do?" ”

Li Liangbi said disappreciatively: "Captain Zhiguo is just a seventh-rank officer, how effective can his guarantee be?" What if Huang Youwei became a lackey of the Khitans? ”

Qi Sibi Yu also echoed: "Yes, it is related to the safety of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Danzhou City, no matter how careful you are." Therefore, this gate cannot be opened! ”

The two of them sang and harmonized like this, which made Tan Mingli embarrassed.

Obviously, these two are picking bones in the eggs and deliberately not letting Cui Geng and Radamizhu enter the city.

Li Liangbi and Qi Si are not higher than Yu in official positions, how can they have so much courage? There is no doubt that there must be a big man standing behind them - Li Duozuo, the general of the right feather forest! This person even dared to die in the pit of Xia Guanshangshu Wang Xiaojie, what else did he dare not do?

Other than that...... A quarter of an hour has passed, why hasn't Di Renjie heard any news yet? Was he persuaded by Li Duozuo, or was Shang Jie, who was sent to deliver the letter by himself, what happened to him?

The more Tan Mingli thought about it, the more chills felt behind him, and he said in a deep voice: "If it is really Cui Shu and Pingyang County Lord outside, what is the leak, can you two afford it?" ”

"Of course I can!"

Li Liangbi cleared his throat and shouted outside the city: "We can't verify the identity of Cui Shu and Pingyang County Lord, so we don't dare to open the gate of Danzhou. Please go around the city and join another city. ”

Cast for another city?

Grandma's, it's not good!

Cui Geng changed his mind slightly, and he couldn't help but sweat and sweat.

Now in Danzhou City, the one who may be bad to himself is none other than Li Duozuo.

What good can he do by doing so? The answer is simply coming out - there are pursuers behind. If you stupidly don't go around the city, I'm afraid it won't be long before you become a prisoner of the Khitans again.

But, then again, what can you do if you don't leave?

The ones who can protect themselves now are none other than Cui Xiufang, Huang Youwei, Mo Xiaoxing and the two hundred subordinates of the wall dragon. These people are all wild people, and they are more powerful than one when they fight alone, but they may not even be able to fight two hundred regular troops on the battlefield. In the end, I still have to be caught.

What to do? What to do? Is it really going to be doomed today?

"Cui Shushu, look at ......" Suddenly, Huang Youwei's voice sounded.

"What?"

Cui Geng looked along his fingers, but saw smoke and dust billowing in the distance, and there were even bursts of people shouting horses neighing.

His face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he muttered: "It's so fast, and now it's time to survive!" Come on, get pen and paper! ”

……

……

At the same time, in the city of Danzhou, the governor's office of Qingbian Province, the living room.

Quiet.

Be quiet.

Very quiet.

Even if you drop a needle to the ground, you can hear it clearly.

Di Renjie, deputy head of Qingbian Road, Zhang Jiujie, deputy head of Qingbian Road, and Li Duozuo, the general of the right Yulin, all looked like water and were stunned.

Syllable!

Zhang Jiujie finally couldn't help it, slapped a few cases suddenly, and said: "No, this method is too lacking in morality, I don't approve of it!" ”

"If you don't approve of it, you have to approve it!" Li Duozuo didn't give an inch, and said: "Radamizhu is out of trouble, and Mo Du will definitely send troops." At that time, the Khitan will be over, how can the world return to the Li family? Aren't hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the five states dying in vain? ”

Zhang Jiujie said hatefully: "You still have the face to mention hundreds of thousands of people? If General Ben had known about this, he would not have agreed to do so! ”

Li Duozuo knew that he was at a loss, shrugged his shoulders slightly, and said: "Don't mention the past, it's come to this, do we want to give up for a little Cui Geng?" Is Cui Geng important, or is King Luling important? ”

"This ......," Zhang Jiujie was speechless for a while

Li Duozuo took the opportunity to persuade: "General Zhang, you think, Cui Geng has a very high reputation among the Khitans, and even if he is captured by the Khitans again, he will not be free, and he will not suffer any grievances." As for the lord of Radamizhu, the Khitans did not dare to offend. ”

"And our two hundred Tang Army?"

Li Duozuo said nonchalantly: "A bunch of rivers and lakes are just reckless, and if they die, they will die." ”

Zhang Jiujie couldn't be so inhuman as Li Duozuo, looked at Di Renjie, and said, "Prime Minister Di, what do you say?"

Di Renjie is also doing a fierce ideological struggle at the moment,

It turned out that he thought that the Khitan people shouted the slogan "Return me to the king of Luling" in order to deceive the people of the Central Plains.

However, after receiving Li Xian's handwritten letter, he was completely dumbfounded - Li Xian and Sun Wanrong really colluded, and Sun Wanrong wanted Khitan independence. After founding the country, Li Xian wanted to force Wu Zetian to abdicate, and both sides took what they needed.

Li Xian didn't even ask Di Renjie to do anything, as long as he didn't do anything and had a stalemate with the Khitans, Wu Zetian would sooner or later not be able to stand the huge military expenditure and compromise.

Di Renjie is of course supportive of Li in his heart, but the matter has come to this point, and he can only turn a blind eye.

However, now, Li Duozuo wants him to pit his own people, which is really against the principle of being a man for the elderly.

"What ...... this?"

Di Renjie frowned, and pondered for a long time before staring at Li Duozuo's eyes and said, "Today's Cui Geng, the old man can temporarily ignore his conscience...... However, this is both the first and the last. If there is a similar thing in the future, please ask General Li to avoid opening his mouth. ”

Li Duozuo gave a deep bow and said, "Thank you to Master Di for understanding righteousness." ”

"Hehe, righteous?" Di Renjie smiled bitterly and said, "The old man doesn't have the face to mention this word now...... Erlang, Old Man Di can't stand you! ”

Although Di Renjie and Zhang Jiujie both expressed their positions, looking at their reluctant looks, Li Duozuo still didn't dare to take it lightly and continued to sit there to monitor the two. Of course, Di Renjie and Zhang Jiujie knew what he thought, and in order to avoid suspicion, they could only cooperate.

Half an hour later.

"Master Di, Master Di!"

A small school ran into the living room in a hurry, and said breathlessly: "Get out of ...... What's wrong? ”

Li Duozuo was overjoyed and couldn't wait to say: "But the Khitan army suddenly appeared and arrested the two people suspected of Cui Shu and Radamizhu?" ”

"Oh!"

The little school was directly ordered by Di Renjie, but he would not buy Li Duozuo's account, so he glanced at him and said, "Cui's book is very powerful. The Khitans have been captured. ”

"I ...... Wipe! Li Duozuo couldn't help but say a foul word, his face was gloomy, and said, "It's over!" It's all over this time! ”

Zhang Jiujie smiled happily and said: "Two hundred rivers and lakes are reckless, and the Khitan army is one thousand, and Cui's book is really a god!" How exactly did he do it? Why don't you tell me about it soon! ”

The little colonel swallowed and spit, and said cautiously: "Actually, the two hundred rivers and lakes were reckless, and the nearly 1,000 captives were captured by Cui Shu alone......
