Chapter 191: Lighting the Beacon

However, the beacon tower was not lit immediately, you must know that ringing the bell tower can also be used as a warning, but only by completely igniting the beacon can the city gate be completely closed.

Liu Hao didn't know 10 points about the situation here, and he didn't know that in the last few years, Chang'an City had already become an undefended city.

Although Chang'an City has always maintained the so-called alarm, but after so many years, because it is a place where commerce and trade are concentrated, merchants gather in large numbers, and there are always special people who enter the city or do not follow the rules after entering the city, after the curfew.

Although the Nine Gates are closed, they can still quietly flow in a large number of merchants and so-called passers-by through the small doors and tailgates.

Therefore, when people heard the bell tower ring in advance, they always felt a little surprised, but most of them looked around and found that there was no alarm, and then thought that it was most likely that the defenders were joking.

Jia Liu flew up frantically from the bell tower, looking at the stupid officials and soldiers below and couldn't help but be furious, "Hurry up." Light the beacon. ”

However, at this moment, a large number of officers and soldiers rushed to the location where the bell tower rang, and a majestic general reined in his horse and looked up.

Not long ago, he was appointed and dismissed from the Golden Palace, and he was a little rusty about defense, and at this time he was patrolling the city, and he saw that it was a so-called bad marshal dressed in black, and the commander of the army rang the bell tower and even wanted to light the beacon.

He couldn't help scolding, sat on the tall horse, and pointed with his hand, "Oh, where did you come from, you still want to light the beacon, the general is here, if you don't make it clear, you will definitely be judged to be a crime of destroying the door." ”

Everyone crossed their hands one after another, and even many people even knelt down to the general tremblingly, Jia Liu was a little helpless, it was indeed not easy to light the beacon tower at this time.

After all, the guards of the bell tower are a minority, and they hit the bell tower in a daze, and all the bell towers at the four corners sounded, if the beacon tower is lit again, it must have certain requirements.

So he couldn't take a step forward, he knelt down on one knee and kowtowed, "General." In Xiaxi Chang'an, the bad handsome Jia Liu was polite. The right person is different, and Lord Liu Hao of the Standing Yama has passed through this gate, and is now heading to the imperial city. ”

He said that outside the city, 30,000 iron horsemen of the grassland alien race were rolling in, and asked us to ring the drum tower and light the beacon tower immediately. ”

The general pursed his mouth, "Nonsense, this beacon tower is high above, you can see it for miles, if the iron cavalry really comes, then what? Light the beacon, the whole city is on alert, and close the nine gates, so what? Where is this person you are talking about?"

Jia Liu was a little dumbfounded. Lidi Yama ran in alone and rode a tall horse, and then rushed out, what evidence do you need to show it??

General Ren frowned, "The beacon tower has not been ignited, so it can be seen that what you say is all nonsense." I'm going to behead your whole family. Come, take him down for me first. ”

This is troublesome, as soon as it comes to arresting people, the officers and soldiers are suddenly like tigers and wolves, rushing up, and even put this Jia Liuma on his shoulders and back, and directly tied it firmly.

Jia Liu couldn't help but shout, "General Ren, General Ren, Standing Yama is not a small nonsense. Lord Liu Hao has arrived, he is dressed in the costume of a military general of our dynasty, and he has come to report by Daliang BMW Liangju that he has now gone to the imperial city, if it is too late to close the 9 gates now, if he waits for this beacon tower to discover the enemy's situation, even if the fire is lit, I am afraid that the 9 gates will be difficult to close?"

General Ren didn't know about the defense of Chang'an City, he couldn't help but be angry, "Nonsense, I am the first defense of Chang'an City, naturally take the beacon tower as a signal, if there is a foreign enemy invasion, as long as the beacon is lit quickly, it can spread all over the 9 gates, and the 9 gates will be closed immediately, how dare you talk nonsense?." ”

The high-ranking general, how did he know that the defense of this city had already been in shambles, but the bad handsomeness who gathered thieves in Chang'an City was clear, and he really didn't meet the enemy before.

If the beacon can be lit, according to the speed of the defense and the garrison, it can reluctantly drive those merchants who rely on the nine gates to take refuge in the city, and the nine gates can also be closed.

However, if you really wait for the beacon tower to see the enemy army, it will be difficult to clear the merchants inside and outside the city gate for a while.

The reason why Chang'an City has not been attacked by the enemy in recent years is largely because it has been held on the periphery for a long time, and Chang'an City itself is weak in internal air defense.

General Ren waved his hand and signaled the officers and troops below to quickly take Jia Liu away, this bad marshal is talking nonsense, it will obviously affect General Ren's official authority, and the unclear handling of the current matter, all the people who go out and go out at the city gate are businessmen.

Everyone stared in, not knowing what the officials and soldiers and these bad people were going to do, but just now a fire did pass by one person and one horse, but it was long gone.

Now that the bad man had clashed with the garrison, he had knocked on the bell tower and lit the beacon tower, and the merchant watched and joked from the side, feeling that although something big was going to happen, it seemed that there was chaos here.

Jia Liu was really helpless, after all, he saw Liu Hao in a red jacket just now, riding a big food BMW horse, and quickly rushed to the imperial city.

At this time, you just let those visible officers and soldiers make it clear to the proud General Ren, I'm afraid no one is willing to intercede for you, who let yourself be really reckless just now, and you have to ring the bell tower?

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but shake his head, those of his own subordinates couldn't afford to provoke these officers and soldiers, and they saw that their heads were about to be taken away, but they couldn't do anything, at this moment, Jia Liu suddenly felt that the rope behind him was loosened, and the rope that bound his arms and arms actually fell off.

Obviously, someone was moving his hands and feet in the back, but he didn't feel who this person was, and it was said that there were officers and soldiers behind him, if someone untied the rope.

Isn't this a matter of great condemnation from the whole world? But the man's skill was so clever that he cut his rope skillfully without showing any sound, and then handed him a knife in his hand.

Jia Liu couldn't help but sigh, this is forcing me to rebel.

However, the words of Liu Hao, who stood on the ground, could not be ignored, it is said that a person like Jia Liu, who is 30 years old and has strong blood, may immediately be inspired by people, but Jia Liu is different after all.

He has followed his brother for so many years to solve cases and arrest them, and his brother has a reputation as an expert in anti-theft in Chang'an City, but this Jia Liu has already been an apprentice with his brother. In West Chang'an, Jia Liu is already very well-known for being handsome.
