"Quick, quick, quick."

In the city, Colonel Zheng Jun led a group of soldiers and rushed towards the city.

It turned out that he had seen a fire at the top of the city before, knew that the situation was critical, and came specifically to provide reinforcements.

When defending a city, unless it is absolutely necessary, it is impossible to use a lose-lose method like burning.

Washing the ground with fire is a last-minute move to kill both of you.

It can be seen that the battle at the top of the city has reached a critical stage.

"Stop those young men and those who don't obey will be beheaded on the spot."

The captain saw dozens of young men running around, and some even turned the winch in an attempt to open the city gate.

That’s okay!

The captain gave the order and suddenly heard a flood of shouts coming from the top of the city.

"The general is dead and the city is broken."

The cry is like thunder, but it doesn’t sound like a fake.

"Boss, look."

Someone with sharp eyes beside him saw a man holding a sword in one hand, slowly walking through the smoke-filled city and reaching the top of the city gate.

"What is he going to do?"

With such a big fanfare and being exposed to the public, it only takes a hail of arrows to shoot him down.

The captain raised his hand and was about to call the archers to fire a volley. The next moment

……

The figure walked a few steps quickly and jumped off the city wall. There was a burst of exclamation from all around.

No, not seeking death.

The man was in mid-air, holding up his long sword and slashing at the wall bricks at the head of the city, then slashing down

In an instant, the advancing light of the sword penetrated the smoky battlefield, dimming the light of the fireworks.

The captain was stunned, and the soldiers behind him were also stunned.

The figure swung his sword in the air, starting from the top of the city, following the downward trend, and first cut through the brick-covered city head like tofu.

Then, there is the huge city gate.

The city gate is made of solid wood, covered with iron sheets, and inlaid with copper nails. The back of the door is filled with sandbags, rocks, and knife carts.

The Tang army attacked and killed for many days, but failed to break through the city gate.

However, under this sword light, cutting the door was like cutting paper, splitting on both sides.

The spurting copper nails and iron sheets were like rain, knocking over thousands of Zheng's soldiers on the spot.

The flying sawdust was so powerful that it flew directly a hundred meters away and hit the captain's face, leaving a bloody trace.

It took a long time before someone reminded him, "The city gate is broken."

It was more than just broken! The city gate fell to the ground and scattered into countless pieces, directly smashing firewood all over the ground.

At this time, no one had the intention to defend the city, and everyone was staring at the open city gate.

Smoke and dust swirled around, a figure fell to the ground, and the sword in his hand slowly faded away.

"How could the Tang army have such warriors?

For a time, many generals were disheartened. What else could they do?

The generals were killed, the city gates were opened, and the army was leaderless, so we simply surrendered.

The young and strong civilians, seeing no one to stop them, rushed out of the city one after another.

"The war is over, let's go home, go home."

"Dad, Mom!"

Some people passed by the city gate and did not dare to approach, but they still knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the figure, then stood up and left.

Outside the city, war drums were thundering, and the Tang army's formation was moving.

There is no more suspense in this battle.

Half a day later, Zhong Sheng, Li Qingfeng and Monk Min were sitting in a corner of the street.

The three of them drank water and watched the Tang army shuttle through the streets and capture the remnants of the Zheng army.

Occasionally, there were cries. It was because Zheng Jun, who was hiding in a residential building, was discovered and took the residents hostage to resist.

"It's over?"

Li Qingfeng nodded, "General Lu sent someone to inform that excavation of the embankment has been stopped. The manpower will not be withdrawn for the time being. Instead, rammed earth will be filled with rocks to repair the gap."

"I'm afraid people have known for a long time what happened between you and me."

Zhong Sheng laughed and said, "He is so sensible, so I don't have to do anything."

Qingfeng Li stared at him, "You..."

"Zheng Jun is a lost dog and is easy to fight. Tang Jun's momentum is like a rainbow, which is incomparable to them."

"By the way, did you encounter any unusual soldiers in the city?"

Zhong Sheng shook his head, "They are all a bunch of soft-footed shrimps, nothing outstanding."

Qingfeng Li breathed a sigh of relief, "It's fine if not."

The monk on the side raised his palms and saluted, "Zhong Langjun, if you are injured, I will diagnose and treat you."

"That's true."

Li Qingfeng pointed at him and said, "This monk's Yogayana is excellent in healing wounds."

"No injuries."

Li Qingfeng and Monk Min were shocked when they heard this. Just now, they were surrounded by mountains of corpses and seas of blood, but Zhong Sheng was actually unscathed.

"Zhong Langjun, which branch of military secret training does your family inherit?"

Zhong Sheng thought for a while and said, "Uncle Zhong Kui, have you ever heard of it?"

Monk Min pondered, then shook his head, "I haven't heard of it."

It's okay, you'll hear it soon.

Li Qingfeng thought again, "You have made great achievements this time. General Lu will definitely put him to good use. You will have a bright future."

While we were talking, a group of Tang soldiers passed by, including fellow Guanzhong people who had seen Zhong Sheng before. They stopped and saluted him.

The strong man is respected on the battlefield, and Zhong Sheng single-handedly captured the county seat, which has spread among the Tang army.

Zhong Sheng waved his hand and continued, "Not interested."

The monks were shocked when they heard this, "Why?"

"General Lu dug embankments to flood the city. Although he said he was not in charge of troops, I don't like it."

Monk Ming clasped his hands together and said, "It's so good. Mr. Zhonglang is compassionate and he is a member of my Buddhist sect.

"Shut up, Mr. Zhong wants to marry a wife and have children, not a bald man."

At night, when the city was finally settled, General Lu sent someone to invite him.

Zhong Sheng, Li Qingfeng, and Monk Min went to the banquet together and met the middle and senior leaders of the Tang army.

The generals are like clouds, and their spirit is several levels higher than that of Zheng Jun.

General Lu encouraged wine and vegetables, and Zhong Sheng refused to accept anyone who came. His stomach was like a bottomless pit. He ate half a cow, two roasted whole lambs, half a pot each of pig's trotters and fat chicken. As for the fruit and vegetable noodles, it was even more difficult to count.

The surrounding generals of the Tang Army were all surprised when they saw this. This appetite...

"What a brave man, now that the county town has been captured, our army will rush to Luoyang. Do you want to take any position in the army?"

Zhong Sheng put down his wine glass and raised his hand to refuse, "No need."

The surroundings became quiet, and the night wind blew through the window and rubbed against the wall tiles.

General Lu smiled and asked, "What does this mean, strong man?"

The atmosphere was tense. Li Qingfeng held the iron fork inserted into the meat in the palm of his hand, and Monk Min held the corner of the table, ready to overturn it at any time.

Zhong Sheng simply said, "You and I are not from the same place."

"Are you still blaming me for using water to replace troops and using water to attack the city?"

General Lu sighed and explained, "I had no choice but to take this step for the sake of the lives of the soldiers."

But in my heart, I am young and impulsive, and I don’t know the way to choose.

"It's not your fault!"

Zhong Sheng's voice was loud and clear, "Whether you use real swords or guns, or flood the city and attack it, it's all your choice."

"I don't want to be with you because you just chose the weakest path."

As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked by his arrogance.

Qingfeng Li and Monk Min looked at each other with despair in their eyes. Can they still go out today?

"Mr. Zhong of Nanshan, what do I see today as an unparalleled warrior?

General Lu sighed twice, "Today, let's just get drunk and have fun, nothing else."

This evaluation was final and the surrounding atmosphere relaxed.

Qingfeng Li and Monk Min breathed a sigh of relief. There would be no more classic Swordsman sessions.

Thinking about it again, there really was an ambush, and with Zhong Sheng’s ability, he could have penetrated it.
