The cool breeze was blowing, and the drizzle washed away the dust and blood on the city wall.

At the top of Jiangxia City, soldiers were sitting tilted against the battlements. Some of them were slightly shorter, whose eyes were covered by their helmets. They had to raise their foreheads with difficulty when talking to barely see who the person on the other side was.

"This ghostly aura is getting colder."

"...Hey, which general are you under? Why do you look at the face of the gods?"

The person who was questioned lowered his head and dodged a little.

"I escaped from Huaxian."

"What about Hua County? I think it's a cartilage from Nanping County!"

"you!"

The man showed a look of humiliation on his face. He pinched the other person, holding his arm, and raised his fist and swung it away.

The mud and water on the ground were brought up, pounding and hitting, accompanied by the sound of his body falling heavily into the ground, and the cheers of the soldiers around him, instantly attracted a group of attention. His military career was boring and boring, and this was even more so when defending the city. He was not allowed to move around at will, and he could not leave the city wall without rotation. Many people were holding a fire in their hearts to vent.

"Fight, beat the whole coward to death!"

"I lost the face of Jingzhou Army!"

Mud dots splashed, mixed with more than a dozen arms stretching towards it.

Seeing that the fight was about to turn into a humiliating group fight, a loud whip sound suddenly appeared in everyone's ears.

"What's going on? Stop!"

The governor and lieutenant arrived after hearing the sound, and no matter whether it is right or wrong, he was whipping at the crowd.

The soldiers were all wearing armor, and as long as they were not pulled to the head, face, neck, and arms, it would not hurt. However, the military law was strict, so they hurriedly retracted and continued to lean under the battlements to shelter from the rain, pretending that things had nothing to do with them.

The two men who fought at the beginning could not avoid punishment, were stripped of their skin and whipped ten whips.

Qiu Jing saw all this in his eyes, frowned slightly, and said to his confidant: "Recently, the soldiers of Jingzhou who defected to Nanping County have been repeatedly excluded by Jiangxia soldiers."

"The Lord, my subordinates think that General Nie deliberately sent these people in."

The words were about Yuan Ting, the "Tiger Out of the Mountain". He lowered his head slightly and looked cautious and humble.

There are not many people in Fengxing Pavilion who understand military tactics. The apprentices taught by Mr. Bao Guanyong are indeed outstanding in Fengxing Pavilion. After Yuan Ting was hit by Meng Qi, another traitor appeared among his brothers. In addition to the troubles caused by Qiu Si's death, Yuan Ting learned of his mistakes and felt even more angry. He joined Cheng Jingchuan and prepared to join the army to fight the King's army at the junction of Yangzhou and Jingzhou.

Unexpectedly, he was sent back to Qiu Jing by Cheng Jingchuan.

After a lot of trouble, Yuan Ting's temperament changed a lot.

Of course, this also has something to do with the old friendship between Jiang Xia and his teacher Bao Guanyong. At least Yuan Ting was convinced by this old general.

"Soldiers rotate to defend the city. Every time there is a trouble, they are in irrelevant resting moments. The positions of those foreign soldiers are arranged in a very unfavorable manner. There are almost no people I know around them, and the supervisor and lieutenant come very quickly."

Yuan Ting lowered his eyes and hurriedly, "Since the defeat of the Wang Dajun army ten days ago in Nanping County, Jiang Xia has encountered three waves of attacks one after another. It is a defeated army, but its combat power is not weak. Although the old general is well-manned and the number of rebels is less than we imagined, he finally defended smoothly, but for many soldiers guarding the city, the madness of these rebel soldiers is still beyond their expectations."

Soldiers are also humans. If anything is more difficult than imagined, people will subconsciously shrink.

Especially when you see your colleague's body and endure the pain in the wound, your morale will definitely be depressed.

At this time, some special stimulation will come.

We must also "warn" everyone that they can't stand any place when they flee without fighting.

"In this way?" Qiu Jing showed disagreement. She shook her head and said, "These escapees are hidden dangers. If they have escaped from their neighbors once, they may escape for a second time. If there is a change in the battle situation, they will become the first force to cut off the bow and crossbow."

Yuan Ting was thinking that the few escaped soldiers were completely able to control the lieutenant, and then he heard Qiu Jing continue, "Besides, the man just now was not just replaced by the city guards. He also stopped the bandits from attacking the city for more than an hour ago. He..."

He is exactly the same as other Jiangxia soldiers.

They fought bloody battles, and they were fighting hard without retreating.

When asked about the history, he lowered his head and dared not speak.

If you escape in the army at the last battle, you will be killed and a serious crime. However, after being defeated, you will not be punished by military law. But what is the truth is? Those who have experienced the city breaking know in their hearts.

"The loss of the outer city of Nanping County Government is indeed a big mistake, but the real mistake is definitely not an ordinary soldier." The unbearable look in Qiu Jing's eyes slowly disappeared. She turned her head and looked out of the city. The continuous autumn rain seemed to cover the entire ground with a layer of gray curtains, and almost unable to see the river water in the distance.

There were still corpses piled up outside the city, and more than a dozen people hanging from the city walls were buried in digging holes outside the city.

They want to push the body out of the pit, pour oil on it, burn it and fill it with soil.

There are many epidemics in the south of the Yangtze River, especially when there is a lot of rain. The corpses cannot be left for a long time or buried in a hurry.

Of course, there are risks in doing such a job. If a bandit suddenly attacks and can only carry one person at a time, it means that most people will die, and usually soldiers who are punished will do it.

The two men who had fought before were tortured and were taken to the side of the hanging basket. Each of them took a shovel and went down dejectedly.

It’s not easy to work when you are in the rain. If you are not careful, you may fall ill.

The world is difficult, and whether a person is innocent or not, even his life and death are so insignificant.

To be unlucky, it is probably an ordinary person who appears in an unfavorable position when he is bad, but cannot show his ability to be too lenient. He was eventually caught up in the unfortunate waves.

Qiu Jing pressed her right hand against the thick city wall, and the subtle pain made her mind clear.

"Is the news from Wudi coming?"

Yuan Ting was stunned for a moment. He thought Qiu Jing was going to ask about the battle situation in Jingzhou. After all, the Qi army had already encountered Wang Nikoo.

"It has not been done yet, General Blades has already set off his camp yesterday and is heading east."

This is to give up Jingzhou and prepare to deal with the King of Wu's troops. Obviously, the King of Wu did not intend to continue to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger's fight, and wanted to get some benefits in the water. However, Qiantang County and Jingzhou were separated by the territory of Ning, and King Ning died. No matter who he thinks, it is a good piece of fat.

Qiu Jing laughed self-deprecatingly. The current situation was that she brought people to assist the Jingzhou army in defending Jiangxia, and Cheng Jingchuan fought against the Wu army. On the surface, she seemed a little more difficult. The people in the Jianghu were unruly and could not be directed by the arm, and Jingzhou was almost fallen. However, in fact, Cheng Jingchuan's situation was even more difficult. If the King of Wu's ambition could not be defeated, the situation in Jiangnan would change again.

"The chaos in Jiangnan must be ended before the winter comes completely, otherwise..."

The people were displaced, and hunger and cold caused a large number of them to die.

Once the population is lost, it will be difficult to recover the vitality of Jiangnan. Whether it is Qiu Jing's news network that is revitalized through Fengxingge and various commercial businesses, or Cheng Jingchuan's ambition to change his ambition to stay in this world, it will turn into Wuying.

Because all changes must be based on the solid warehouse and sufficient food and clothing.

Yuan Ting hesitated for a moment and finally asked in a low voice: "I don't know where Master Meng is, can you ask him to go to General Cheng?"

"There are no decent martial arts masters under the command of the King of Wu. Mr. Qiu left enough people. Moreover, the two armies confront each other, the prestige of the chief general is very important. National Master Meng can help for a while, but not for a lifetime. Even if the King of Wu retreats, Ningdi still has a mess waiting for Cheng Jingchuan, and he can only rely on himself."

As soon as Qiu Jing finished speaking, he saw more than a dozen riders coming towards this side in the distance.

The soldiers looking at the city wall whistled, and everyone got up with weapons in their arms.

"Wait, we are our own people."

***

"Doctor Mo, please use tea."

Mo Li reached out to rub her tired eyebrows and smiled at the people in Fengxing Pavilion.

Also sitting with Master Ning, who was tired and dusty, looked like he didn't look like a master at all.

The few sitting on the right are elders of Hengshan Sect, who are well-known figures in the Jingzhou River and Lake.

"The rebels were divided into five groups, and they were robbed in Jingzhou. Although the people who escaped from Nanping County City have been sniped by Qi and us, the army of Suwang had been scattered across Jingzhou before..."

Qiu Jing listened to his subordinates' constant reports, waved his hand to stop him, and stood up and bowed to everyone.

"Thank you all for your hard work."

"It's okay, I didn't do anything, I just eliminated some martial arts scum."

"Yes, if Master Ning and Doctor Mo were not killed so easily, Master Luo would not have been killed."

"I didn't expect that the King of Governor was Zheng Tu! Alas!"

Listening to everyone's comments, Ning Changyuan looked strange and thought that Master Luo's death was really not done by him, but Mo Li shook his head at him, and Master Ning had to swallow the words again.

——Meng Qi and the others appeared on the Qi army, and they were all old-fashioned. They did not follow them this time. If Ning Changyuan explained, the strange things that Meng Guoshi appeared and appeared, and the old and young would have been widely circulated.

Although there are already various rumors within Fengxing Pavilion, it is better to have less than more things. It is important to kill anyone, and there is no place to get money.

The gerbil yawned in Mo Li's arms.

With the claws stretched out, the hidden bag of this dress is relatively large and you can lie down and cross your legs.

The sword was gone, and there was no need for him in Yunming Academy. Everything went smoothly in the Qi army's suppression of the enemy, so they just took a laziness.

Ning Changyuan seemed to notice something strange, turned his head and looked over, Mo Li took the tea sideways without any trace, covering up the slightly bulging wrinkles on his chest.

Seeing Qiu Jing busy greetings with the sects of Jianghu and further control of the situation in Jingzhou, Mo Li was worried that the gerbil had not eaten anything, so she made an excuse to rush to get tired and stood up to say goodbye first.

Qiu Jing didn't want to talk to Mo Li in front of so many people, and ordered people to take Mo Li to the prepared wing room to rest.

Ning Changyuan took the opportunity to follow him out.

"After this matter, I don't know if I can go to visit Mr. Qin?"

"The family teacher lived in seclusion for many years..."

Before Mo Li finished speaking, she felt her chest tickled and was "tickled".

The gerbil was unhappy.

Who would bring Ning Changyuan when he went back to "see" his heart's true appearance up the mountain?

Meng Qi thought very carefully. Qin Lu was Ning Changyuan's life-saving benefactor. If Mr. Qin looked down on him and was angry that he abducted his apprentice, he shouted and got out, who would Ning Changyuan help?
