Chapter 465 Burning the City and Destroying the Enemy
After Feng Linyuan died, there were only two semi-retired veterans left in the entire court of Mu State who were worthy of the post of commander. However, facing Shuhe's 40 troops approaching the city, Dongli's 60 cavalry surrounded the country, surrounded by east and west Under the circumstances, Zongmu has heavenly soldiers and generals to help, and it only takes a few days to destroy the country.

They captured nine cities in one go, but when they were about to reach the last city of the Mu Kingdom's imperial city, the army encountered obstacles.

"General Qi, there is an abnormality in the city ahead."

Shuhe was dressed in red, flying under the scorching sun. He reined in his horse and stood under the city gate. Looking at the closed city gate in front of him and the empty situation above the tall city tower, he had some guesses in his heart, but he remained calm and authentic. :"what's the situation?"

"The city is dead silent, as if there is no one there." The person who reported continued.

There was a dead silence, as if there was no one there?

Shu He raised his eyebrows, "So, there should be someone inside? What are they doing?"

"Report to the general, the whole city is wailing and moaning. Going in from the city gate, all the official roads in the whole city are full of groans and corpses. Everyone's face is pale, their voices are weak, and their hands and feet are twitching. It is suspected that there is a strange feeling. sick."

Hearing this, Shu He calmed down a bit, "Where's the military doctor?"

"There is not a single soldier left in the city who can fight, and the military doctor is confirming the condition."

Shu He smiled coldly: "Feng Yuxi is probably at the end of his skills, so I don't know what tricks he thought of to avoid the war?"

"It's the plague." A gentle voice came from behind, with his unique peace and indifference. They all knelt down holding their swords.

"Meet the prime minister!"

Only Shu He sat on the horse safely, rolled his eyes angrily at this, and didn't even look back.

Of course, he did not ignore the weight of the word "plague" because of this, and he was slightly surprised.

Xie Changting, who was dressed in a black long gown, slowly walked out from behind the team with his hands behind his back, as if he hadn't seen the people kneeling on the ground around him, his indifferent gaze quietly watched the city gate ahead, his face became more and more calm Grace.

Shu He sat on the horse, tilted his head and glanced at him lightly. Although he was quite dissatisfied with following his arrangements these days, he had to admit that he was indeed an unparalleled counselor.

To deal with Feng Yuxi, he can accurately calculate every step of his plan and arrangement, and formulate the most perfect response plan.

Shu He did not question the order to destroy Mu State within seven days, but he knew that it would be impossible for Feng Yuxi to surrender within seven days if he was alone.

Xie Changting, by chance, can do it.

"Since it's a plague," Shu He looked at him condescendingly, "I wonder what Prime Minister Xie's strategy is to defeat the enemy? Plague is no joke."

Xie Changting didn't look at him either, he just said calmly: "Come down."

Shu He raised his eyebrows, "Why?"

Xie Changting said: "If you don't want to lose face in front of many soldiers, you'd better do it."

Shu He's complexion changed, and he subconsciously looked around. Seeing that everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to lift them up, he snorted inwardly, turned around and gave him a hard look, and then reluctantly rolled over and got off the horse.

"General Ben has come down. If you have anything to say, you can say it."

Xie Changting glanced at him lightly, then raised his lips and smiled slightly: "Xie forgot to tell you that the master is at the Mu Palace at the moment."

"What?" Shu He's face suddenly changed, "How could the master..."

Master came to Mu country alone and didn't inform them?

Is this too dangerous?

Xie Changting didn't say much, he just said indifferently: "Order to burn the city."

As soon as this remark came out, not only Shu He was shocked, but all the surrounding soldiers were surprised. Lu Yao blurted out: "The city is full of unarmed people!"

"Unarmed civilians?" Xie Changting's face was calm, and he smiled lightly, "Lu Yao, can you be sure of the authenticity of this sentence? Lie about the military situation, this crime, Xie is sure you can't afford it."

The road is far away.

During these days of getting along, he already understood this person's uncompromising temperament, as well as his keen insight of always being one step ahead of others, and seeing through every step of the opponent's plan.As soon as this sentence came out, no matter what the real situation was, Lu Yao obviously didn't dare to make any absolute guarantees.

Shu He said thoughtfully: "Four days have passed since the seven days. If you want to successfully destroy the Mu country within the time limit, burning the city is the only option at present. It can be regarded as an unarmed person, and the people in the whole city have no ability to resist."

"There are still more than [-] people on death row in Mu Guotian Prison." Xie Changting looked indifferent, and in front of the mighty [-] troops, he talked lightly about the enemy's emperor, neither praising nor derogatory in his words, "When the emperors of all dynasties ascended the throne, They are all used to amnesty in the world, but these ten thousand people are extremely heinous people. Even Feng Yuxi's amnesty back then did not pardon them at all. Feng Yuxi is obviously a smart person, and these people have been locked in the prison , Not pardoned, not killed. There are heavy soldiers inside and outside the prison all the year round, and there are many institutions, the defense of the prison is as solid as gold... And what he has spent a lot of time on is today."

Shu He was not surprised when he heard the words, but his sword eyebrows were raised high, "Although Mu Guofeng Yuxi is not particularly wise, he is not a fatuous and incompetent person, why did you know about such a secret matter? "

Even before he went to find out, he knew that the people who got the plague in the city ahead must be the repeat offenders of those prisons?

Lu Yao looked at his general, and looked helplessly at his provocative tone when he talked with Xie Changting.

If it is possible to regain a city once in a while, it is okay to earn some face back, but every time I suffer under Xie Changting's hands, it is not once or twice. The Prime Minister does not want to care about him, but why does he always enjoy it? no?

Sure enough, Xie Changting didn't even give him his eyes, he just said indifferently: "How did Xie know, I have no obligation to tell you."

This kind of dialogue has been carried out more than once. Shuhe has already developed the extraordinary ability of invulnerability. He only curled the corner of his mouth when he heard the words, "When the general sees the master, he will tell the truth. You'd better think about what to do when the time comes." explain."

Lu Yao turned his head and really wanted to sigh.

Why didn't he realize that his majestic general would be so childish before?
threaten……

Is Xie Changting a person who is afraid of threats?

Besides, people have a wide range of sources of information. It is their ability to know the world without going out. If you are envious or jealous, just say it. Such a naive move is really...

Xie Changting didn't hear it, and ordered directly: "Prepare to burn the city."

Lu Yao took the lead and retreated to get ready.
