C262 Conflict Occurrence (Next)

Arriving at the gate, Ni Qushi saw that it had already been burnt to a terrible state, and that there were several holes in the wall on both sides of it. The bitterness in his heart became even stronger, seeing Situ Qingyun say that he would tear down his own command mansion, was this what he meant.

Now that things had come to this, it would be hard for things to turn for the better. Ni Qushi clenched his teeth, he made up his mind, it seemed that he would not be able to avoid today's battle, but after calculating the time, the army he had under him was most likely on the way, as long as they arrive, he might not even be able to win.

Ni Qushi commanded his soldiers, and used his spear to cut a hole through the already burnt door, just in time to face Situ Qingyun who was outside the door.

"Situ Qingyun, you are going too far, I think I will never let you down, you actually dare to let people tear down my Commander's House, what do you want to do?" Ni Qushi came out from the crowd, shouting out to the people outside through the blazing door.

"First, I'll take away the Cheng couple, and second, I'll tear down your mansion. If you dare to obstruct me, I'll tear your bones apart along the way!" Situ Qingyun rode on his horse and replied angrily.

Hearing Situ Qingyun's words, Ni Qushi's heart instantly leaped into his throat, these two conditions were too harsh for him.

Let's talk about the first reason, if this Cheng Family couple had been taken away by Situ Qingyun just now, that would be enough. But if he was to bring them away now, not to mention the Mrs. Cheng who still retained its charm, just the couple had already been tormented to such an extent by him. If Situ Qingyun had a grudge with them, it would be fine if she could see the situation in front of him, but if she were to see the two of them acting in such a furious manner, she would most likely be hacked into pieces.

Furthermore, the second rule was that in the entire Fengyang City, from the nobles, down to the commoners, it was possible that they would not know that the City Guard Army Headquarters was Ni Qushi's, and it would be fine if the ordinary houses were to be demolished, but if this symbol of status were to be taken down, it would not be a normal act of face-slapping, but a naked insult, and Su Yun would no longer have any face in the imperial court, and would even become a laughingstock amongst his comrades.

Therefore, these two factors were related to his own life and his own reputation and career. If he were to concede to Fang Xingjian just like that, then he would be done for for for the rest of his life.

Thinking about it, Ni Qushi laughed bitterly in his heart, it seemed that there was only one path left for him to take, it was to stake everything on this, and compete with Situ Qingyun, if it became his, in the Fengyang City, or even in the imperial court, he would be able to do whatever he wanted. If not, he would just die, at worst, he would just be able to use his thirty thousand city guards, and would he not be able to handle these hundred people? Even if they were to spit out stars, it would be more than enough to drown them to death.

After Ni Qushi made his decision, his mood suddenly brightened. He was clear that what he needed to do now was to stall for time, at least until his own people arrived.

"You ?" "Alright, about that couple surnamed Cheng, we can discuss it over and over again, but if you dare tear down my mansion, I'll definitely not let you off. I'm not afraid to tell you, I've already sent people to gather, if you know what's good for you, then take your people and leave, if not ?" He wanted to use this opportunity to scare her away. Although he knew that this possibility was not high, he could at least delay the possibility of doing so and gain an advantage for himself.

"It seems like you still do not understand my, Situ Qingyun's personality. Whatever I want to do, I must accomplish it, even if it is Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild ahead, you can ask my brothers, who do they fear? Brothers, are you afraid of death? " Situ Qingyun scoffed at Ni Qushi's threats, and at the same time, understood his intentions, but was Situ Qingyun afraid of him? It was obvious that he would not. The danger that he had to face was ten thousand times greater than this. At that time, he had never been afraid, let alone this kind of situation. Finally, Situ Qingyun shouted out to the soldiers around him.

"Kill, kill, kill!" Responding to Situ Qingyun were resounding shouts for battle.

Hearing the sounds of people shouting and killing from outside the manor, at the same time, Ni Qushi still had some lingering fear in his heart, and could not help but sigh: "These people are simply monsters that have crawled out of hell!"

Seeing that the opposing party could create such an earth-shattering force with just a hundred people, Ni Qushi was slightly hesitant, he even had doubts that the number of people under his command, could be sufficient to suppress the opposing party.

At this moment, the sound of frantic footsteps came from the distance. However, this stomp was not only chaotic and concentrated, it was also sufficient to determine the exact number of people who had come. Furthermore, one did not even need to guess to know who it was.

"Situ Qingyun, did you see that, my army is coming? You can sneak attack me right now, but as long as you apologize to me and give up on your own accord, I can let you and your men go, for the sake of the past, what do you think?" Knowing that his large army was about to arrive, Ni Qushi was assured in his heart. Even his own waist was a lot stronger, and said to Situ Qingyun proudly, as if victory was within his grasp. Even Ni Qushi seemed to have seen the scene of Situ Qingyun kneeling and begging for forgiveness in front of him.

"Like I said, I have two matters to attend to today. First, I will take away the Cheng couple, and secondly, I will tear down your mansion!" Situ Qingyun answered without backing down in the slightest.

Firstly, he believed that his personal guards could hold on until his army arrived, and secondly, he was confident that even with the people in front of him, as well as the City Guards that were about to rush over, they probably wouldn't dare to do anything to him. Forget about the dignity of his general being there, just with the prestige that he had accumulated in the army all these years, it was enough to scare them off. Furthermore, the crime of assassinating the general was not as simple as exterminating the entire family.

"Good, very good. I think the general won't shed tears until he sees the coffin. Since that's the case, then let's see the real deal!" Ni Qushi said to Situ Qingyun with a sinister smile, because he had already seen the banner of the city guards. He reckoned that it was a few streets away and he believed that the reinforcements would arrive soon.

But just as the city guards were about to reach the peak of the commander's mansion, they heard a loud sound coming from the north gate of the city, then they vaguely heard the sounds of fighting, and the sound of ten thousand horses galloping like muffled thunder. This sound came from the north side of the city, and it became clearer and clearer that it was heading in this direction.

As a soldier, even if it were an ordinary soldier, as long as they had been on the battlefield, they would have a clear memory of a sound. It was a sound comparable to the muffled thunder in the sky, because this sound represented a powerful troop ? cavalry.

In the battlefield of the era of cold weapons, the effect of cavalry was comparable to that of strategic grade weapons. They were used in the most important places, and were also the most feared and feared by the soldiers. As long as the cavalry had a certain scale, once it was activated, it would immediately form a world-shaking imposing manner, and this kind of imposing manner could instantly crush a soldier's heart, causing the entire army to be defeated. Even when the cavalry's charge was used, it could sometimes easily prevent the enemy from fighting and defeat.

But why would such a cavalryman suddenly descend? Ni Qushi stared straight at Situ Qingyun, and seeing the smile on his face, Ni Qushi suddenly realised. In terms of strategy and tactics, compared to Situ Qingyun, even if he were to ride a thousand li horse, it would be difficult to see the general's back.

Ni Qushi's expression was extremely ugly right now. He had wanted to fight this time difference, and as long as he did not let these hundred or so people break out, no matter how powerful the people from the Northern Army were, they would not know what was happening inside the city. Furthermore, just in case something was wrong, the Academy Officer that he had sent to call for help should have already informed the generals on duty at the city gates to close the city gates to prevent anyone from entering or exiting. However, he had missed a move in the end, and Situ Qingyun had already informed the army outside the city long ago.

The current situation was extremely passive for Ni Qushi. With the number of people on his side, he might not have more than the opponent, and with his current fighting strength, even his subordinates would not be able to match up to him.

"Since your men are here, I won't be polite with you. Let's see if your city guards are not afraid of death or if my northern army is better at fighting." Situ Qingyun pointed at the city guards who were arriving at the Palace one by one, and spoke to Ni Qushi with disdain.

"General, I think this is just a misunderstanding. Why don't we sit down and have a good chat? Why don't we use force and force?" You say that, don't you? " Ni Qushi was a little guilty, his tone also became a lot gentler, and there were even some subservient requests.

"Mister Ni, you didn't say that just now, did you?" Situ Qingyun pursed his lips and asked.

"This ?" I am only joking with the great general, I hope he will not mind! I can give you the Cheng couple that you want, but Great General, please show mercy to this Mansion of Demolitions! " Ni Qushi pleaded as if he had compromised.

"Today, I will do two things. I can't miss any one of them. "The number of people on the other side is more than three times our own. Tell me, are you afraid?" Situ Qingyun had no intention to reconcile at all, and after he replied lightly, he turned to the hundred or so personal guards that had gathered around him and asked in a clear voice.

"Kill!" The guards answered Situ Qingyun with a certain kind of answer.

"Very good. All of you, retract your sabers. Do not injure anyone. Do whatever you want!" Situ Qingyun nodded his head in satisfaction. He was the general that commanded hundreds of thousands of soldiers. He was not a rash fellow who would take his saber and slash at others just because he was hot-headed. Even if he was angry, he still had some bottom lines.

"Yes, General!" The guards answered.

"Everyone is in formation, retracting their sabers, changing their weapons!" Following his order, over a hundred people left the front of the formation and lined up. One by one, they placed their swords behind their scabbards, and fished out something from their cloth bags with their right hands. They hid it behind their backs, and stared at the City Guards not far away.

Then, he heard the leader of the group suddenly order, "Go ahead and throw it!"
