Chapter 397 I’ll borrow your head!
After the decision to send troops to Ancheng was agreed upon, the commander-in-chief Qin Wudi mobilized 200,000 soldiers and horses, divided them into eight armies, and marched straight to Ancheng.
Due to the shortage of troops, the cities outside Ancheng were unable to defend themselves and fell one after another.
However, in just ten days, Qin Tianming, the vanguard officer, captured three cities in a row, advanced five hundred miles, and approached the city of Ancheng.
The progress was so smooth that he felt very proud.
There is a sense of heroism that says, "With a spear in hand, the world is mine."
That same day, he sent an envoy to Ancheng to persuade them to surrender.
"Qin An, go to Ancheng on my behalf and tell Li Changsheng to open the city gates and surrender immediately. Otherwise, when the city is captured, I will kill him without a trace!"
……
at the same time:
Li Changsheng is seizing the time to prepare his troops and arrange various city defenses.
There are now 15,000 defenders in Ancheng.
Among them, there are only 5,000 people who can fight.
The remaining 10,000 people are all old, weak, sick and disabled, and are of no use.
Moreover, since they learned about the Tiandao Alliance, they led an army of 200,000 to attack in a mighty manner.
The residents in the city were also in panic.
Especially some wealthy businessmen, they all thought that Ancheng could not be defended, and they were trying their best to escape from Ancheng.
Fortunately, Li Changsheng used thunder-like means to kill dozens of people in a row, which stopped the spread of panic in the city.
Then he opened the granary and distributed grain to the people.
And select 30,000 young and strong men from them and let them go up to the city wall to defend the city.
Just when he had arranged everything, Du Dalong came hurriedly to report.
It is said that the vanguard general of the Tiandao League, the Holy Son Qin Tianming, has led 50,000 vanguard troops to the city of Ancheng.
And send envoys to persuade them to surrender!
After listening to Du Dalong's report, Li Changsheng couldn't help but frown slightly.
I didn’t expect Qin Tianming to come so quickly!
"Bring the envoy of the Heavenly Dao League here. I want to hear what kind of nonsense he can come up with."
Du Dalong responded and brought Qin An, the envoy from the Tiandao League, over.
Qin An is a servant of the Qin family. He has been following Qin Tianming since he was a child and has long developed the habit of being arrogant and domineering.
Even when looking at people, he was just like Qin Tianming, with his nose in the air, an arrogant look, and an arrogant look.
When he saw Li Changsheng, he said arrogantly, "You are Li Changsheng, right?"
Upon hearing this, Du Dalong immediately burst into anger.
"Do you think you can call my leader by his name?"
Qin An, however, disagreed: "What kind of commander is he? He's just a eunuch. What's so great about him?"
When Du Dalong saw Qin An's rude remarks, he became furious and wanted to teach him a lesson.
But he was stopped by Li Changsheng.
"Dalong, don't be rude!"
When Qin An saw Du Dalong just now, he raised his fist as big as a casserole and was so scared that his legs were shaking.
Now he was stopped by Li Changsheng.
They naturally assumed that Li Changsheng was afraid of their master.
Thinking of this, his expression became more and more arrogant, and he looked up with his nose in the air.
"You are more sensible. No wonder a eunuch can hold such a high position!"
Li Changsheng smiled disapprovingly and asked, "May I ask your name?"
Qin An raised his chin and said proudly, "Qin An!"
Li Changsheng said with a smile: "I heard that your alliance's deputy leader and saint son also have the surname Qin!"
"That's my Patriarch and Young Master!"
When he said this, he was very proud and had an expression of honor.
Li Changsheng asked, "What is your purpose for coming here?"
Qin An said, "I'm here to persuade you to surrender. Otherwise, when the Tiandao League army arrives and breaks through the city, we will kill you without a single piece of armor left!"
Li Changsheng smiled indifferently and casually asked a few questions related to military intelligence.
However, although Qin An is very arrogant, he is not a fool.
It could be heard that Li Changsheng was trying to trick him.
"Li Changsheng, I'm a tight-lipped person. Don't even think about getting any useful information out of me!"
"As the saying goes, a man who knows the times is a hero. I advise you to surrender obediently. Otherwise, the day this city falls will be the day you die!"
Li Changsheng didn't say anything, just smiled indifferently.
Immediately, he clapped his hands.
A young woman wearing a veil walked in from the backyard.
Without saying a word, she came up and danced gracefully.
Qin An stared at the young woman's exquisite figure and her graceful dance moves with his eyes wide open, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
He didn't think much about it.
It was natural to assume that Li Changsheng was scared.
She wanted to bribe him with her beauty.
So that he can say good things about it in front of his master.
After all, Li Changsheng now has only more than 10,000 elderly, weak, sick and disabled people in his hands.
They could not withstand the siege of an army of 200,000.
It would only take a day or two for Ancheng to be captured.
Just as Qin An gradually relaxed his vigilance, his consciousness became numb and his eyes became dull.
Like a soulless idiot.
The young woman stopped dancing and asked in an enchanting voice, "What's your name?"
"Qin An!"
Qin An answered instinctively without even thinking.
The young woman stared at him for a while, and only after confirming that he was indeed poisoned by a Gu did she take off the veil from her face.
"Husband, I've put a spell on this guy that makes him obedient. If you want to know anything from him, just ask him directly!"
It turned out that this young woman was none other than someone else.
It’s Yu Rou!
Li Changsheng smiled slightly and said, "Yurou, thank you for your hard work!"
Then he came in front of Qin An.
"Qin An, let me ask you, how many troops did your Tiandao League send this time?"
Qin An: "Two hundred thousand!"
Li Changsheng asked, "How many soldiers does your Holy Son Qin Tianming have under his command?"
Qin An: "Thirty thousand!"
Li Changsheng asked: "How many cavalry and infantry?"
Qin An: "Five thousand cavalry, and the other 25,000 are infantry!"
……
By questioning Qin An, Li Changsheng knew everything he wanted to know.
At this time, the effect of the obedient Gu weakened, and Qin An came back to his senses from the state of being possessed.
who am I?
where am I?
what am i doing?
By the way, where is that girl who danced beautifully just now?
While speaking, he was still subconsciously searching around with the corner of his eyes.
However, he didn't find any beautiful girls.
Just seeing Li Changsheng's eyes full of murderous intent.
This made him shudder and he shuddered instinctively.
Li Changsheng said coldly: "Qin An, I want to borrow something from you!"
Qin An's heart trembled, and he asked with a trembling voice, "What do you want to borrow?"
Li Changsheng replied expressionlessly: "Your head!"
When Qin An heard that Li Changsheng wanted to borrow his head, he was immediately frightened.
"Li Changsheng, I am an envoy. Since ancient times, when these two armies fought, they never killed the envoys. You..."
"Shh!"
Before he could finish his words, Li Changsheng suddenly drew his sword and slashed at Qin An's neck.
Qin An only felt a flash of cold light in front of his eyes, and then his throat suddenly felt hot.
The vision flew out, did a 360-degree spin in the air, and then rolled heavily to the ground.
Judging from the bloodshot look on his eyes, it was obvious that he died with his eyes open.
Li Changsheng looked at Qin An's headless body and couldn't help but frown.
"What a damn noise!"
