Chapter 1205 Seize the Opportunity

The magistrate of Jucheng County was so anxious that his hands and feet turned cold. He had only been in office for a few months, and his official hat was about to fall off?

Losing his hat was a small matter, but he was afraid that his head would fall off as well.

He stole a glance at the captain of Bixia. His surname was Shi, and he was blaming his subordinates for not searching hard enough.

In fact, in the eyes of the county magistrate, the prisoner might have escaped from Jucheng.

But no one dared to say this.

A shadow flashed outside, and a man ran in.

The county magistrate looked closely and saw that it was a centurion.

This was originally the head of the army under Captain Shi. He rushed in to see his two superiors but did not salute or bow his head. He just said expressionlessly: "I know who kidnapped Situ He."

He suddenly looked down on his superiors, and red light flashed in his eyes again. Captain Shi was startled and asked tentatively: "Tianzun?"

This centurion was another ghost slave placed in Jucheng by the evil spirit Xuanlu. This scene should be a ghost. But Captain Shi didn't care who the prisoner was, he just wanted to know the whereabouts of the death row prisoners: "Where are they?"

"Most likely they have left the city."

Captain Shi felt heavy in his heart, as if a big stone was pressing on him. Situ He escaped from Jucheng, which was a serious dereliction of duty for him.

But the evil spirit Xuan Lu didn't care what he was thinking:

"Send me two thousand men, I need them."

"Ah?" Captain Shi had to ask clearly, "What do you want two thousand men for?"

Two thousand men are not two thousand silver coins, which can be sent out casually.

"This time I'll let you get an advantage." Xuan Lu said grimly, "I'm going to do it myself."

Captain Shi's surprise was extraordinary: "Are you going to lead the troops in person? But are you going to take down Yaopo?"

He heard that this evil spirit had a big appetite and asked for a high price, and it was not easy for him to ask him to do work.

Now this ghost king said that he wanted to go out in person?

"No, I want to take down the Rolling Stone Valley."

"Roll..." Captain Shi thought he had heard wrongly, "Then, that place is not considered an important enemy town, right?"

"Of course." Xuan Lu glanced at him with a cold look, "How long are you going to talk nonsense to me?"

Realizing that he was talking to the Ghost King, Captain Shi's heart sank, and he calmed down: "I can't make up my mind, please, please make the decision."

The centurion had no expression on his face, but Captain Shi could hear the disdain in his voice: "In my previous army, a waste like you would not survive more than two days."

Captain Shi choked. He also knew the surrounding terrain. There was only a mine and a small village in the Rolling Stone Valley. Although it looked easy to defend and difficult to attack, it was surrounded by stone mountains, and crops could not be grown or troops could not be stationed.

What's the point of rushing to take it down now? Although the mine is good, can it feed the troops?

Not to mention that Jucheng suffered a heavy blow tonight, and all the death row prisoners were kidnapped.

According to the plan, they were supposed to resist the siege of the Situ family; now that the important bargaining chip is gone, will Situ come to attack the city?

Shi Duwei had a lot of troubles on his hands, and Xuanlu Ghost King wanted to borrow 2,000 people. This was really, really...

It was raining on a rainy night.

But he knew the weight of Xuanlu Ghost King, so he could only continue to be respectful: "Tianzun, I need a reason to report to the higher authorities. Why, why do you want to attack the Rolling Stone Valley?"

Xuanlu Ghost King looked at him: "Do you know Luo Shengjia?"

Shi Duwei was stunned and nodded.

This is an ancient legend in the central and western parts of the Shining Gold Plain. He is a general, how could he not have heard of it?

"Luo Shengjia has been born, and may be in the Rolling Stone Valley." Xuanlu Ghost King said coldly, "The war in Bixia is tight, and the attack on Situ has been unsuccessful for a long time. Don't you want to borrow the power of the evil armor?"

Shi Duwei never expected this reason. He was stunned for a while before saying: "I will go to the birds to send a message immediately."

He didn't dare to say more. Just as he was about to turn around and go out, Xuanlu Ghost King said again: "My original body will be here soon. You'd better prepare your troops before the day after tomorrow."

He didn't say "otherwise", but everyone knew the consequences.

…

The lights in Yaopo Camp were bright.

Situ Yu stood outside the main tent, often looking into the distance.

The night was clean and there was nothing.

Fu Liushan and he agreed that once Situ He was successfully rescued, fireworks would be set off as a signal.

Not so fast, he kept comforting himself, calculating the time, Master Fu's team had just slipped in and was about to start the rescue.

His fists subconsciously loosened and clenched.

If failed...

Once the rescue failed, he would seize Jucheng with lightning speed! As for Yaopo, I hope the remaining forces can hold on until he leads the troops back.

Father and son are connected by heart, he can never sit idly by and watch his son being killed.

Situ Yu took a deep breath to relieve the anxiety in his heart.

At this moment, he actually heard the most familiar voice from behind:

"Father!"

It was Situ He's voice. Did he hear it?

"Father, I'm back!"

Situ Yu turned around and saw his son running over surrounded by several guards, covered in blood.

"Ah He?" Situ Yu was overjoyed, but the blood on his son's body made him tremble with fear.

But the guard behind him immediately stepped forward and raised a light to shine on Situ He's face.

If someone was pretending to be a disguise, they would be exposed.

Really, it was real.

Situ Yu then stepped forward and pressed his son's shoulder, looking him up and down.

"This..." When he saw the wound on his son's hand, his face suddenly darkened, "Who did it?!"

"Come here, come here, where is the medical officer?" Father and son are connected by heart, and he felt distressed.

"Ghost King." Being a death row prisoner is not a vacation. Situ He had a very hard time these two days. He was tortured by the Xuanlu Ghost King. He was shaky, but his mind was clear. He could make it clear in a few words, "Xuanlu Ghost King wanted to force me to persuade my father to surrender."

The military doctor came running over and asked him to come in for treatment when he saw Situ He's injuries.

Situ He lay on the narrow bed, and his father asked him:

"By the way, where is Master Fu's whole team? Why are you the only one back?"

"Huh?" Situ He was stunned and looked around subconsciously, "Master Fu is here too?"

He also recognized Fu Liushan.

Situ Yu was more surprised than him: "Didn't Master Fu save you?"

Then how did this son appear out of thin air!

"No, no, it's an old friend of mine!" Seeing that the topic was about to be diverted, Situ He immediately pulled it back to the topic, "Father, now that I'm out of trouble, what are you going to do next?"

This is the most urgent matter at the moment.

Situ Yu's face suddenly became serious.

Situ He said firmly: "I escaped too fast. The Bisha people haven't reacted yet. They are probably still looking for me in the city. The opportunity is great. Father must not waste it!"

From the time his eyes went dark to the time he returned to Yaopo, it was less than two quarters of an hour!

He still hasn't figured out how He Xiao sent him back.

If he said he escaped from Jucheng, he could understand it; but the distance from Jucheng to Yaopo was also several miles. The mountain road was difficult to walk in the middle of the night, winding and twisting. If the horse ran fast, it was easy to sprain its ankle or fall off the cliff.

So, how could He Xiao send him back to Yaopo safely in two quarters of an hour?

He didn't feel any bumps the whole way!

This is too weird.

The only reason is that He Xiao is proficient in escape.

Situ Yu was asking him: "How long did it take you to escape?"

Situ He quickly shook his head to get rid of distracting thoughts from his mind: "From the time I was rescued to now, it's only two quarters of an hour."

"Two quarters of an hour!" Situ Yu's face changed and he was also surprised. But as the commander of the army, he was the first to realize that the opportunity had come.

Just as his son said, he escaped too quickly, and the Bisha people had not reacted at all. Now is a great opportunity!

"Good, very good." He sat down beside Situ He's bed, "I originally planned that if the rescue failed, I would attack Jucheng before dawn. I guess Jucheng also expected this and made preparations to defend the city."

Situ He immediately asked, "What about the front line of the Bisha people?"

The Bisha people also had a team stationed in Baijian Town, which formed a horn with Jucheng and stared at the Situ army.

The Situ army suffered two defeats and changed from offense to defense because they were outnumbered.

No matter where he attacked, the other side would take advantage of the opportunity.

"The spies reported that the Bisha camp in Baijian Town also had lights on all night, and the horses were not unsaddled. It seems that they are also ready. They want to wait for me to attack Jucheng, and then they will attack Yaopo. I originally thought that I would send a thousand people to guard the camp here."

The Bisha people used an open conspiracy. Situ Yu knew it was a trap but had to jump in. Who made him reluctant to give up his son?

But that was originally!

Situ He suddenly escaped from the trap, and the situation was reversed in an instant.

His weakness was gone, but the Bisha people had not reacted yet!

Situ He said: "But Jucheng had been prepared in advance, with well-trained soldiers and sufficient food. If we still attack by force, I am afraid we will not be able to take it in a short time."

Jucheng was originally a bait to lure the Situ family into action.

Then the Bisha army in Baijian Town will still attack Yaopo and try to break the Situ family's front line.

Situ Yu nodded: "Yes, what do you think, Ah He?"

Situ He hadn't slept for several days, and was tortured. He lost too much blood. The military doctor finally treated his wounds and stopped the bleeding. When he lay down, his limbs felt like heavy lead, and he wanted to faint.

But at the critical moment, he must be strong: "Jucheng has made defensive preparations, but Baijian Town has? Their attention is all on Jucheng in front, and they won't pay attention to the danger behind."

A word awakens the dreamer!

Situ Yu punched in his palm: "Great, Baijian Town will definitely not think that we will not attack Jucheng, but attack them instead!"

"Okay, this is a good idea! The Bixia people want to steal Yaopo? I will treat them with their own methods!" He stood up, paced seven or eight steps, and said, "But we have to set up some suspicious arrays to make the Bixia people think that we are sending troops to Jucheng."

Jucheng had just had a turmoil, and it was not certain that Situ He had escaped from the city. Baijian Town certainly did not receive the news so quickly.

Speed ​​is of the essence in war.

Situ Yu patted his son's shoulder and said, "You should take good care of your wounds first. I will go and make some arrangements."

Now that his son is back, he has no worries about fighting and can go all out!

Situ He exhaled, "This battle will definitely be a great victory!"

The tranquilizer took effect. Before Situ Yu even walked out of the door, he couldn't hold on and fell asleep.

apapapapap

The next day was a good day, with the sun hanging high and no clouds in the sky.

In the late morning, a group of people walked into Jishi Village to visit "He Xiao".
