Chen Palace

Chapter 169
Everything was originally going smoothly.

Lin Kuang looked at the panicked people scattered around the city, and despite the blood and stumps flying in the air, his expression was calm as if he had just woken up.

"Patriarch, once such a notoriety spreads, our Lin family may be despised by the world..."

Some confidantes will come to him and whisper worriedly.

"It's okay..."

Lin Kuang walked leisurely, and said in a sarcastic tone: "The world should know that on the day the city was broken, the soldiers and civilians here were slaughtered by the Tatars, and some of the rest also died in this accidental fire."

He sneered and said: "No one would have thought that the martyrs who died when the city was destroyed were only a small number, and so many surviving people voluntarily surrendered on the day the city was destroyed, and just survived."

The family general also nodded in agreement, ignoring the slaughter in front of him, and said with a smile: "These people were actually killed when the city was broken!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, actually quite proud in this bloody storm.

Hearing the sound of horseshoes galloping across the streets of the city, the two looked back in horror, only to see the imperial flag fluttering in the wind, flying proudly, with a special kind of coldness.

……

For Lin Kuang, the next scene was chaotic and desperate. It wasn't until the horse was shot to death by a bow and arrow that his cronies took him and rode a horse. Only then did he realize that he had been defeated by the officers and soldiers. Crashed.

Looking at the thousands of cavalry around him, he felt a pang of sadness in his heart—the ten thousand Chinese army, which he was most proud of, only resisted for two hours!

Dust and smoke billowed behind him, and there were still countless soldiers and horses chasing him. He was angry and panicked at the same time. He whipped a few times and sent an order: "Hurry up! The front is the outpost camp of Khulu Khan!"

The remnant soldiers and defeated generals cheered up for a while, Lin Kuang looked at the pursuers who were getting closer behind him, and his heart was even heavier.

These officers and soldiers are tough and cold, with battle-tested sophistication, and their combat power is so powerful—these must be the elite under Zhou Jun's command!
He was jealous at the same time and thought angrily: How could that vulgar warrior Zhou Jun be willing to work hard for the court? !
As he was thinking wildly, the officers and soldiers chasing him behind him could clearly see their features——

In the clamor of dust and smoke, those clear black eyes, with a treacherous sneer, shot straight into his heart!
Is that the emperor's beloved concubine Chen? !

He breathed a sigh of relief, thinking of how powerful she was in the rumors, his scalp tingled.

Chen Lu reined in the reins, and waited for the soldiers around her to form a half circle, forcing Lin Kuang to stop.

"I have admired you for a long time, King Xiang is a thousand years old..."

Her voice was clear and crisp, as if pearls and jade were colliding and shattering, and there was a kind of coldness in her calmness.

Such a solemn title of honor is not so much respect as irony—Lin Kuang was so angry that his face was distorted, his eyes were burning with flames, and he cursed like a moan: "Bitch..."

Chen Lu just smiled, and the soldiers around her shouted together, and was about to surround the circle, but saw a cloud of smoke not far away, with a wolf flag flying high in the middle.

"Hulu's outpost came so fast..."

Unwilling to delay, Chen Lu shook out the silk from her sleeves, tied Lin Kuang's five flowers, and then tied them to the horse's back. The group of people could barely leave, and the outpost of the Tatar army chased after it for a while, that's all.

"Our whereabouts have been exposed, is the whole army still withdrawing from Xuefeng Mountain?"

The partial generals in the Zhenbei Army said worriedly.

Chen Lu looked at the scattered Tatar tents in the distance, pondered for a moment, and made a bold decision——

"There is no need to withdraw, we stick to Luancheng."

****
"It's bullshit!"

When the emperor received the urgent letter from the messenger, he looked at it for a while, and his face changed greatly with anger. He slapped the table with his palm and said angrily, "She led the 5000 people, and she actually defended the city under the eyes of the Tatars!! "

Zhou Jun took the letter and scanned a few lines, but also found it quite tricky.

"The army and civilians in Luancheng have suffered heavy losses, and there are not enough people to replenish them. If we defend the city there, we may only last for three days."

He made a judgment.

"Why take such a risk?! Is there no one in the Celestial Dynasty?"

The emperor was so angry that no matter what, Qu Yun was waiting for the news. Seeing that it was nothing, he winked and asked Zhou Jun to retreat first. When there were only two people in the room, he persuaded: "There is a certain reason for her to act like this." .”

"...?"

The emperor was so angry that he didn't want to speak, but his eyes showed suspicion.

"Because the previous trick to kill people with a knife, although successful, has provoked Hulu's relentless revenge—Chen Lu's nature will never sit back and watch people be killed."

Seeing that the emperor was still anxious, he added: "Although she is a woman, she has the air of a general. If there is no chance of winning, she will not act like this."

The emperor was about to answer when Qin Xi came in and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Yun is asking to see you!"
