The Golden Age Chapter 677: The painful choice

In the north of Shuning city, under the setting sun, a group of cavalry stood quietly outside the city surrounded by a general in a red cloak.

Redcloak will have a burly figure, carry a long spear, and wear a hideous black iron mask on his face. The setting sun shines on the mask, glowing with a dark and mysterious light.

Within two miles behind General Redcloak, there is a dense group of rebels.

Dong Guangxiao ascended to the top of the city, and saw the rebels line up, his heart was horrified.

He knew that the rebels would attack the city sooner or later, but the opponent came out today before he judged it.

Qin Xiao and Sheyue also ascended to the city head and saw that the enemy was already lined up, only thinking that the rebels had attacked the city ahead of time, with a solemn expression, and the defenders on the city head were already waiting, and the county lieutenant Gong Kui had already pulled out. With the knife in his hand, it's just the general of the Redcloak.

Most of the defenders at the head of the city have never experienced war. At this moment, many people's palms are sweating, and they look a little nervous.

The Redcloak also seemed to see Dong Guangxiao at the head of the city. He turned his head and said something to a cavalryman beside him. The cavalryman flicked the rein of his horse and approached the city alone.

Gong Kui said solemnly: "The archer is ready!"

"Don't move rashly." Dong Guangxiao raised his hand to stop, and said in a deep voice: "You are not allowed to shoot arrows without instructions from the official."

The other party only sent a cavalry close to the city. Naturally, it was not a siege. Dong Guangxiao knew that he should come over to spread the word, but wanted to hear what the other party was going to say.

The cavalry hurried to the bottom of the city, stopped his horse, raised his head and said loudly: "Please speak to the county magistrate." This man was full of air and his voice was loud, but his tone was very polite.

Dong Guangxiao put his hands on the battlements, and said solemnly: "My official is, I have something to say." He is a martial artist, and his voice is naturally strong.

"Dong County Order, you take the people to hijack the princess and commit chaos. The crime deserves death." The cavalry shouted: "The right **** will have the order. As long as you hand over the princess to ensure that the princess is safe, we will immediately withdraw our troops. I won’t be embarrassed with you again."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the city sneered, even Musk sneered.

It's really unreasonable to reverse black and white so much.

"The princess is indeed in the city." Dong Guangxiao said solemnly: "Your queen mother will raise troops to rebel, and all the people in Shuning City will be under the leadership of your Royal Highness to quell the rebellion. Tell you the right **** general, the imperial court will reinforce the army soon He will arrive in the south of the Yangtze River, where the king's master will be. If he wants to survive, he will immediately take the Jing into the city and wait for the princess to send him down, otherwise he and the group of demons and demons will die without a place to be buried."

The cavalry said loudly: "Dong County Order, you are the parent officer of Shuning County. You should not think for yourself, but also for the people in the city. The lives and deaths of tens of thousands of people in the city are in your hands, as long as you Open the city gate and hand over the princess. You God will guarantee that you will not harm anyone in the city. If you want, you can join our Queen Mother's Club. You God will immediately be able to make you a star general, and Shuning County will still hand it over to you. Master." After a pause, the voice became abrupt: "If the county magistrate doesn’t understand, after the Queen Mother’s army breaks through the city, she will kill a chicken or dog in the city, and their deaths will be your ignorance. Caused by current affairs."

Dong Guangxiao laughed and said: "If you have the patience, please come to attack, I am here waiting for you."

"Dong County Order, don’t blame me for not reminding you." The cavalry still said loudly: "All the gods are gathering here, you are a small county, you can’t stop the offensive of the gods. If you don’t Hand over the princess, You God will take down Shuning City at all costs, but I still want to think twice."

"Don't think twice!" Dong Guangxiao took a longbow from an archer on the side, took an arrow in his hand, bent the bow and set the arrow. Just immersed on the ground in front of his horse, and immediately heard Dong Guangxiao's cold voice: "This is the official's answer."

The cavalry knows that the county magistrate Dong's archery is really not weak. If he is really aiming at himself, he is already killing him, so he doesn't dare to talk any more nonsense.

Everyone at the top of the city just stared at the Redcloak General without saying a word, thinking that since the other party's persuasion was invalid, they were afraid that they would attack the city.

Seeing that the cavalry arrived at the Redcloak and said a few words, the Redcloak raised an arm and waved forward.

When Dong Guangxiao saw this, he immediately said to She Yue: "Princess, the rebels are preparing to attack the city. This is very dangerous. Please go back to the county office and sit down."

"My palace is here to fight the enemy together with you." She Yue shook her head, with a firm tone: "Don't worry about me, this palace wants everyone to see that they are fighting for the princess of Datang. "Looking around, he said loudly: "The soldiers of Datang, don't retreat from the rebels, this palace will never go down to the city, and you will live and die with you."

The defenders at the head of the city naturally knew that this stunning beauty was Princess Musk Moon of Datang.

For the soldiers, the princess is a celestial figure high above. Now the celestial figure with a fairy posture insists on staying in the city to live and die with ordinary soldiers. This is naturally beyond everyone’s expectations, but It also instantly lifted everyone's hearts.

There will be no greed for life, and scholars will have the heart to die!

Qin Xiao looked at Musk Moon, with a smile on the corners of his lips. In this matter, Qin Xiao paid tribute to the golden princess.

She Yue also glanced at Qin Xiao, expressionless, but deep down, thinking that as long as this kid is by her side, she will be safe and sound.

I saw a group of people quickly coming up from the team behind the Redcloak. Dong Guangxiao held the sword in his hand and said solemnly: "Guard Shuning, protect the princess!"

All the officers and soldiers also raised their arms and shouted: "Guard Shuning, protect the princess!"

However, the group of people did not charge here quickly. In the setting sun, Qin Xiao had sharp eyes, but only saw the group of people walking in front of them with decent clothes. Some even wore clothes made of brocade silk. There are men and women, old and young, but there are no fewer than thirty or forty people.

The clothing of the rebels is mostly coarse linen, but such clothing is extremely rare.

This group of people is actually tied back with their arms, and someone has even heard someone crying. Behind this group is a group of rebel soldiers holding big swords, lined up, following this group of people. Behind him, behind the swordsmen, there were a few more cavalry behind.

Everyone in Chengtou also saw that the situation was not right, and they were all surprised.

The sword soldiers drove the group of people closer to the city. The archers were already bending their bows and shooting arrows. Without Dong Guangxiao's order, no one dared to act rashly.

Seeing the group of people getting closer and closer to the city, Dong Guangxiao suddenly shook his body. He leaned forward, his upper body almost leaned out of the battlements, his face appeared astonished, and his neck was already bulging.

Qin Xiao saw in his eyes, knew that something was wrong, and asked in a low voice: "Master Dong, do you know them?"

"Yes...I am the grandfather's family, and...and my two brothers...!" Dong Guangxiao's body trembled: "I...my sister

My sister and her family are also inside. "

As soon as this statement came out, including Musk Moon, they were shocked.

"These beasts." Gong Kui gritted his teeth and sternly said: "They are taking hostages. Animals are not as good as animals."

A group of hostages were driven to the city by the swordsman. They pushed and kicked dozens of them to kneel on the ground. Then they stepped forward, and dozens of swordsmen put their swords on the hostages’ necks.

The cavalry who had come to spread the word also followed at this time, and stood behind the swordsman on horseback. He raised his head and said loudly: "Master Dong, do you know all these people? You are holding the princess, and you are insulting. You are in the city of Suzhou. Your relatives are affected by you, whether it is life or death depends on your attitude."

The hostages cried loudly, and someone shouted: "Brother, I am Guangwen, save us...!"

"Uncle, please help us, I don't want to die...!"

The cry was so terrible, Dong Guangxiao made a fist with his left hand, barely daring to look.

"You don't care about the life and death of the tens of thousands of people in the city, don't you even care about your relatives?" The cavalry said proudly: "Here are your elders, your brothers and sisters, yes, and your nephew and nephew .Your Dong family is a family in the south of the Yangtze River. Naturally, you know how to respect the old and love the young. Dong County magistrate, you will never watch these relatives die in front of you? Hurt. Tens of thousands of lives are exchanged for the lives of one person. Such a deal, Mr. Dong, who is such a shrewd person, will never know how to choose?"

Qin Xiao has a solemn expression.

He really didn't expect that the Queen Mother would come here.

She Yue's delicate body trembled lightly, but she tried her best to stay calm. She glanced at Dong Guangxiao, and saw Dong Guangxiao holding a sword in one hand and a fist in the other, shaking his body, raising his head and closing his eyes, she did not dare to look down the city.

"Guri's beast." Gong Kui is Dong Guangxiao's confidant. He can understand Dong Guangxiao's mood at the moment, and shouts at the city: "You hurry up and use such despicable methods, so you are not afraid of being retributed by God? "

The cavalry laughed and said: "We are the queen’s army, which represents God’s will. Master Dong, give you a stick of incense to consider. We will wait for your answer, whether to hand over the princess or just watch you. The heads of your relatives fall on your head."

Everyone at the top of the city saw the proud cavalry, and they were all in anger.

"My lord!" Gong Kui looked at Dong Guangxiao, his voice trembling.

Shu Yue laughed bitterly, and finally said: "Master Dong, you have done your duty to defend Shuning City. You are my loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty. If you hand me over to them, I will never blame you."

Dong Guangxiao did not speak, but threw away the long sword, took the longbow again, took the arrow in his hand, turned around, bent the bow and set the arrow, without the slightest hesitation. Breaking through the air, burst out with a fierce and invincible momentum.

"Puff!"

The cavalry was still laughing on horseback, but the laughter suddenly stopped.

An arrow with anger pierced his throat accurately.

The cavalry couldn't believe it.

His pupils contracted, his body shook, he had already turned from his horse back to the ground, twitched a few times, and then he did not move.

Whether it is the city head or the people under the city, they are stunned.
