Chapter 250: Surrender the Army
As the earth shook and the mountains trembled, the old general defending the city felt his knees weak and his heels numb, and he could not even stand steadily by holding on to the stone wall beside him.

He looked up in horror, staring at the city wall not far away in amazement and horror.

In his field of vision, a crack suddenly appeared in the middle of the towering city wall that was originally one and the same. Then there was a roar from heaven and earth, and the Changjun city wall was split into two.

It was sunset at this moment. One side of the wall was facing the shining sun, while the other side was facing the dark night, like daylight on the left and darkness on the right.

Such a shocking scene can be called the wonder of immortals. Most of the Qingzhou troops in the city now have escaped back. They are already in low morale and confused. After seeing this scene, they are even more scared to the point of farting!

They all knelt on the ground and kowtowed in panic, as if praying to the gods in heaven not to blame them.

The vibration that tore the city wall apart did not last too long, and it stopped after four or five breaths. When I looked at the north wall again, it had already been opened on both sides, like a gate welcoming people in.

The veteran finally steadied his steps, and when he looked at the troops in the wilderness, his face was mixed with green and blue.

The original purpose was to defend the city, but suddenly it turned into a skirmish.

and……

Looking around, he could clearly see that the soldiers under his command were already frightened out of their wits.

His hamstrings were weak and his feet were shaking. He knelt on the ground tremblingly, clasped his hands together, and bowed his head.

Where is the energy to stand up and fight?
They are a group of useless people whose backbones have been taken away!

The old general was disheartened and knew that the situation was hopeless. However, as a general of the King of Shou, he would never allow himself to die like this. He looked up to the sky and howled in sorrow. He drew his sword and stabbed the soldier who was kneeling beside him in fear to death. He shouted urgently:

"The enemy is just a sorcery, don't be afraid! Follow me with a knife, and kill him!"

But he was only one person after all, his voice and momentum were insufficient, and he was unable to get many people to respond for a long time, and could only smile bitterly.

Afterwards, they rushed forward towards the outside of the city, running towards the Xuzhou team that was like a huge wave.

He rushed to the wilderness alone, shouting loudly, ready to die, but suddenly he heard a sound of breaking wind, and an arrow flew straight from the direction of the Xuzhou army and pierced the old general's neck.

The veteran covered his neck, shook his body twice, and fell to the ground.

There is no hope for life anymore.

……

When the Xuzhou army entered the city, Xiao Changcheng realized that he didn't need to shout things like "surrendered soldiers will not be killed".

The ground was filled with soldiers kneeling in a row, prostrating themselves, not even daring to raise their heads.

The blow to this group of Qingzhou soldiers in the past two days was really too great.

The Xuzhou soldiers who seemed to be assisted by God and the city wall that was pulled open by great force were like a hammer that hit them directly in the heart, smashing all their pride and dignity into pieces, and then gluing them together into the desire to survive.

Xiao Changcheng didn't say much. He just waved his hand and asked his soldiers to go up with hemp ropes and tie up all the people.

The Xuzhou army won a great victory in the battle of Changjun City without encountering any resistance.

Of course, Xiao Changcheng was also very clear that if it weren’t for Zuo Chen’s help, this place would probably be a tough nut to crack and it would take a lot of lives to take it down.

In short, today's great victory should be celebrated.

Good things come to you!

……

It was late at night and the moon was dim.

Qingzhou is not big, and there are not many towns. The residence of Prince Shou was not built in a single city. Instead, Prince Shou sought out a capable Feng Shui master, who went to Qingzhou to make a formation using the seven mountains and four lakes, and used ten Dharma doors as the shape, to open up a hidden residence in the forest.

There is a maze road outside the hidden house in the forest. Unless you are invited or your own cultivation level is high enough, it is impossible to enter the hidden house.

Barracks and horse farms were set up in the outermost circle of the forest. The residences of the nobles and the nearby big city, with the house as the center, formed the land of King Shou of Qingzhou.

Perhaps because the princes had similar personalities, Prince Shou specially prepared a small town in the woods. The town was filled with his trusted subordinates, talented and interesting people, brothels, opera theaters, top-notch restaurants, the best storytellers and an elegant troupe of servants. Whenever Prince Shou was in a good mood, he would stroll around the town, eat, drink and have some fun before going back.

always like this.

But tonight was somewhat different.

This should have been a time for rest and deep sleep, but inside Prince Shou's hidden residence there were angry shouts and the sound of banging and smashing that could be heard continuously throughout the room.

"Is Lord Shou still smashing things in the house?"

"I heard the news from the front today and I got really angry!"

"I can't blame you for being angry. The situation was originally very good, but it suddenly turned into this. I don't know who is behind this!"

The two curtain-pullers outside the court were whispering to each other. At this point, they finally heard the noise from inside the door stop. They swallowed their saliva and looked inside carefully.

Just as he saw a figure approaching the door, he hurriedly reached out and rolled up the curtain.

A thin man walked out.

He had a goatee, wore scholar's clothes, and had a face that was haggard and withered, and he could have looked anywhere from twenty to forty years old.

His face was not gloomy; on the contrary, it looked kind and benign.

If you met him on the street, you would not just think of him as a learned scholar.

But the two soldiers dared not move.

Prince Shou, Lord of Qingzhou!
"Send a few servants in to tidy up my room."

The two curtain-pulling generals agreed immediately and did not dare to comfort Prince Shou. They just went into the house and cleaned up the mess.

Prince Shou had a dark face and walked quickly around the house.

Soon he arrived at the entrance of a hall, where many Qingzhou counselors were already waiting for Prince Shou.

Prince Shou sat in the first seat and glanced at the counselors below. "What is the current situation in Xuzhou? Are there any other contacts?"

After hearing what Prince Shou said, the counselors were terrified and dared not speak.

After a long time, someone finally whispered:

"Lord Shou, General Xu's soul wax just extinguished..."

“It’s destroyed…it’s destroyed.”

With a long sigh, Prince Shou slumped in his chair.

When the soul wax goes out, it means the person is gone.

This man was his old general who had always followed him. Prince Shou knew his methods, but he couldn't hold out for long. It was truly a pity.

Just two days ago, our army was unstoppable, at most it was delayed a little by those guerrillas.

If we spend more time, we will definitely be able to capture Xuzhou.

Two days later,

They were beaten in by people from Xuzhou.

"What kind of magic do they have? How can they eliminate all my elite soldiers?"

Even Prince Shou could only mutter to himself at this moment, full of doubts.

"Your Highness Prince Shou, don't worry. I don't know what those Xuzhou people have learned. It won't be easy for them to invade Qingzhou. We still have the Seven Mountains and Four Lakes Formation. As long as the formation is there, our province will not be breached. It is enough for us to call in the southern army."

"It makes sense."

Prince Shou's expression relaxed, but he suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes fixed:
"Did a Buddhist from Kyoto come to our Qingzhou and set up a formation next to the Gray Mountain?"

After hearing Prince Shou's words, the other counselors all looked at each other, and their faces turned ugly for a moment.

“It seems to be true!”

"He came to our Qingzhou at this time and used a formation on one of the seven mountains... This person has ulterior motives!"

Prince Shou frowned.

Before, he had not wanted to care about the Buddhist monk. After all, that person was from Kyoto, and the formation he had set up so far had no impact on Qingzhou. He just sent some men to keep an eye on him and turned a blind eye.

Now take a look...

No.

Who knows, the other party might really disrupt the Qingzhou formation and threaten one's own safety!
"Zhang Qing, please contact the Southern Army as soon as possible and ask them to transfer troops to the north, those Xuzhou troops.

"Li Qing... go find a few more capable retainers, take out some top-quality treasures from my storehouse, and go directly to Gray Mountain to capture that layman. Bring him to me."

Immediately, two counselors received the order and left quickly.

At this moment, Prince Shou still had his hand on his forehead.

The Xuzhou army suddenly changed from being beaten to being able to fight, which is definitely not as simple as it seems!
"Could it be possible that some expert is helping Xuzhou?"

He couldn't help but think wildly.

During this period of time, his attention has been focused on the south, where he was competing with his cousin in wits and courage, and he had not paid enough attention to other places. He thought for a long time but could not figure out who could have such means.

"Mr. Liu, please ask the Houzheng to investigate carefully. Who are the masters in Daliang now?"

After arranging all this, Prince Shou sat dejectedly in his seat.

I just hope nothing serious happens again.

……

Mr. Yulu suddenly had a strong ominous premonition in his heart.

The hairs on his back stood up and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

What's going on?

Is someone cursing me behind my back?

After using some magic to check, I found that I was in perfect health, without any injuries or problems at all.

It seems that I was worrying too much.

Collecting his thoughts, Master Yulu looked at the formation in front of him.

Deep trenches were dug on the ground of Gray Mountain by his men, and precious treasures given to him by nobles were placed on the four square formation eyes. The major towns have been completed by about 80%, and looking down from the high slope, it is spectacular.

At this moment, Mr. Yulu still didn't know what this formation was used for, but just by looking at it, he felt his heart tremble violently, and a feeling of wanting to worship it emanated from inside to outside.

Now there is only one finishing step left to complete the formation. In order to ensure the chance of success, Mr. Yulu is not in a hurry to activate the formation.

Let them polish it for half a day.

By then, we must see what form this wonderful formation will take.

I heard footsteps beside me, and when I looked sideways, I saw Zhao Laosan had come up behind me at some point, with sadness in his eyes.

"Third brother? You look worried, but what happened?"

"Layman. A master has arrived from Qingzhou."

Yulu Layman: “?”
