As soon as the setting sun was to the west, Suizhou City became so cold that it was afraid of people. Bayi Middle School    W★w   W★.

A new checkpoint was set up on the Nei Street near the North Gate to interrogate pedestrians who were leaving the city. It was getting late and fewer and fewer people left the city. Finally, there was no more figure in the streets and alleys. Elder Pan put his hands in his sleeves, jumped his feet while constantly judging at the sky and counting the time. The soldiers around him kept urging him to ask, "It's almost done."

Old Pan raised his hand and said, "The time is here, close the door!" The soldiers hurriedly went to close the door. Old Pan shouted again, "Slow." But he saw a monk with straw sandals and a mangrove came slowly in the direction of Fuqing Temple in the west of the city. The guards saw him walking slowly and shouted at the top of his throat: "The monk is going to go quickly. It's going to close the city gate." The monk seemed to have some ears and still walked slowly. It was not until everyone urged him for the second time that he jogged all the way. The monk had a pleat on his face and his eyes were turbid and unconscious. He bowed to Old Pan and continued to walk forward. A new recruit stopped him and was about to search for him. Old Pan wrinkled and waved his hand to let go.

The city gate closed with a bang, and the soldiers put the door bolts on the ground and put the door bars on the door bar. The recruits asked Lao Pan in confusion: "Brother Pan, why didn't the monk ask?" Lao Pan glared at him and curled his lips and said, "You also saw that they were monks, so why would you ask?" The recruits scratched their heads and stopped talking, but they were puzzled in their hearts: "The monk is not a prince or a minister, can you pretend to be a shave? Such negligence, aren't you afraid that the real murderer will go out of the city?"

Lao Pan and his brothers retreated back to the camp. This morning they confiscated a few fat sheep. The mutton has probably been roasted at this time. In the cold weather, eating mutton and drinking, and playing with bragging and picking up girls is also a great joy in life. The recruit was stubborn. After Lao Pan left, he climbed up the city alone and looked north.

In the snowy wilderness, the old monk Longzhong just now ran faster than a rabbit.

"Wu Cao ran away, Wu Cao ran away..." the recruit shouted at the top of his throat.

The monk in the snow outside the city seemed to hear his shouts and ran even more happily.

...

Six miles north of Suizhou City, there is a Tushan called Weimatai.

Zhang Bozhong stood on the top of the mountain in military uniform, looking at the sinking red sun, closing his lips and saying nothing. Zhang Bozhong was tall and majestic. Although he was a civil servant, he had a bit of the style of a leading general in military uniform. Li Wei stood on the right, and Fang Litian, the general manager of the Suizhou Office, was on the left.

"Here, come."

Li Wei screamed in surprise, lifted the reins and urged his horse to get off the Tushan Mountain.

More than ten cavalry galloped from the direction of Suizhou City for Zhang Xiao, Wu Zhang and the other two, with a bald monk in the horse team. They looked like they were fifty or sixty years old, but they were actually just young men in their early twenties. This was Wu Cao. Wenlan drew his image and searched the city. However, he changed his identities with the disguise and makeup skills he learned from the actors and actors, and avoided one after another without any danger.

However, this kind of life is not something that people live in. Finally one day, Wu Cao decided to dress up as a woman and go out of the city. He didn't want to mistakenly say something at the street corner and was discovered by Luo Zu. He fled in a hurry and then entered a dead end alley. In a critical moment, a big man fell from the sky and knocked Luo Zu unconsciously saved him. The big man claimed to be a horse thief in Linzhou, with his surname Luo's name. Because of his sympathy for his experience and admiring his character, he helped him. Wu Cao was as clear as a mirror in his heart. Wen Lan's methods of dealing with the captured horse thief were extremely cruel. When the horse thiefs hundreds of miles around Suizhou heard Wen Lan's name, they were both hated and afraid. Even if there were those who were brave and not afraid of death who dared to come to Suizhou, who would dare to come forward to save people at this critical moment?

This great man who called himself Luo Gan was not as simple as a horse thief. He was mostly Wenlan's enemy. He saved himself just to use him. Wu Cao sacrificed his life and let him use it. It was better than dying at Wenlan's hands.

Luo Gan hid Wu Cao in his private house for three days, and was hospitalized with diligently without any neglect. On this day, Luo Gan told him that he had bribed the gatekeeper and let him pretend to be a traveling monk and scramble out of the city while it was dark. Wu Cao was puzzled and asked him: "Will it be suspicious if you leave the city when it was dark?"

Luo Gan replied: "Only when it's dark, our people can get close to Suizhou to meet you. Otherwise, even if you can leave Suizhou City, he will still be caught back if you don't go far."

In this way, Wu Cao pretended to be an old monk and mingled out of Suizhou City without any danger. As Luo Gan expected, a cavalry chased after him shortly after leaving the city. In a panic, Luo Gan's sworn brothers led their troops to fight and cleanly deal with the pursuers. Wu Cao could see clearly that although Luo Gan's sworn brothers were wearing casual clothes and using various weapons, the horses under him were all war horses.

It is true that someone wants to use himself. After Wu Cao saw through this level, he not only did not feel any regret, but instead sneered proudly: If you use me, I will also use you.

...

The dark dark clouds obscured the last star in the night sky of Suizhou.

The north wind that had been howling for a day was blowing harder at this moment. The cold wind was sweeping the debris of ice and snow, and rushed around the Beidaying of the Suizhou garrison. Old Pan, who had woken up in the middle of the night, walked to the door in a daze. The sound of water just rustled. The door suddenly opened, and a cold wind couldn't wait to squeeze in. Old Pan couldn't help but shiver.

"Who?!"

The sober Old Pan seemed to see someone hiding behind the door, and she was completely sleepy. He wiped his eyes and was about to look carefully. Suddenly, a thick hand poked out from the shadow and strangled Old Pan's neck like lightning. Before he could make any moves, a sharp knife was sent into his heart.

"What's the matter?" Lou Wuniang asked in a daze when she heard the movement on the bed.

Lou Wuniang is a young and beautiful widow, and her husband has no children. She lives by washing clothes in the military camp. She gets money for a penny. She takes ten or eight jobs a day, but she can’t live with the money she asks for. She can’t make a living by relying on her main business and can’t afford to eat enough. She has to do some part-time jobs at night. Lao Pan is her old customer, and she is upright and generous, never on credit. She is both serious and willing to work hard when doing her job.

"fine."

Old Pan responded in a vague manner, and Lou Wuniang turned over and continued to sleep with her. Suddenly, a pair of cold hands penetrated into the quilt and pressed on her chest. Lou Wuniang woke up, but did not dare to shout. The world is so unfair. Sometimes, even though she could only earn one share of money, she had to work hard. She was used to all this. Lou Wuniang just lay motionless, waiting for the cold body to come in. Strangely, the cold hand wandered around her chest and abdomen, and then shrank back. Then there were the footsteps gradually fading away.

"Beast, are you still human?"

Lou Wuniang hated Lao Pan who betrayed her. As soon as she walked away, she jumped up in anger and took a hard pillow to smash it at Lao Pan who was squatting behind the door. A strange thing happened. Lao Pan was hit by the pillow and lay on the cold ground.

"Ah...kill, kill someone!"

Lou Wuniang screamed at the top of her voice. She rushed out of the door with barefoot. At the school ground outside the door, she ran wildly in the snow, and a shrill and fearful voice echoed over Beidaying.

There were two brigades of Shence Army soldiers stationed in Beidaying, and the focus of the defense zone was the northern gate of Suizhou, half an inside and outside. Just as Lou Wuniang was shouting heart-wrenchingly at the school military field, a team of thirty people walked towards the north gate along the snow on the cold street.

"Stop, who?"

The guards just asked a question and were shot through the throat by a crossbow arrow. The team of soldiers and soldiers divided into three groups, opening the city gates all the way, dealing with the defenders huddled in the arrow tower, and the other group was responsible for guarding the surroundings.

When the city gate opened, a cavalry team of two or three hundred people shouted in. After entering the city, the cavalry was divided into four routes, along the four streets, beating drums and drums, and setting fires everywhere. In a moment, the flames in Suizhou City soared into the sky and the sounds were buzzing.

Zhang Bozhong climbed up to the city and looked into the city, frowned for a moment. Seeing Li Wei leading a group of people back with a smile, he came forward and asked, "Is Beidaying solved so quickly?" Li Wei smiled and said, "What's the point of a group of mobs?" Zhang Bozhong lowered his voice and asked, "Has that person solved it?" Li Wei nodded slightly.

Zhang Bozhong lowered his head and thought, "Didn't it mean that there are two brigades of the Beidaying garrison? Li Wei and his team only have twenty or thirty people. They originally expected them to go in and make a fuss, so that we could seize the city gates by making a move. Who knew that they had occupied Beidaying? Is there a fraud?" Zhang Bozhong didn't know how many people there were in Beidaying, and all the information was provided by Fang Litian.

Although the Uejifang and the intelligence room have always been disagreement, Zhang Bozhong still believes that the intelligence room should not play any tricks in the face of this matter. After all, they have made contributions to this matter. Fang Litian also saw the doubts in his heart, so he said, "No need to be suspicious. There are indeed two brigades of troops in Beidaying, but the Shence army is not as good as before. The officers are greedy for pleasure and do not know the formation of troops. They only know how to make money, eat empty wages, deduct military rations, rob and punish, and do everything they do. The officers of Beidaying all settled their homes outside the camp. It was cold and no one wanted to stay in the camp. The soldiers were out of constraints, and many of them didn't go home at night. In addition, Li Xiaowei was smart and capable, and it was not uncommon to occupy a Beidaying."

Zhang Bozhong's grief was not relieved, and suddenly a junior school came to report: "Wenlan took Shisanniang out of the south gate and ran away."

"What? Run?!" Zhang Bozhong could hardly believe his ears. The Shence Army was known as the "pillar of the Tang Dynasty" and the "powerful brigade in the world". Who would have thought that a mere fire would burn their generals and escape without a trace?

"Are you sure you're not mistaken?" Zhang Bozhong's voice was quite stern.

The school was not afraid at all and replied, "We have brothers who saw him walking with his guards. The thin and soft cage contained 130 horses."

Everyone laughed and laughed when they heard this. Zhang Bozhong immediately ordered to take over the four city gates, but the other party said: "Wenlan has left, I think you will use your people to take over the city of Suizhou."

Fang Litian asked in confusion: "Didn't you say you want to hand over Suizhou to Marshal Meng? You regret it now, where will you put your lord in the future?"
