Chapter 1837: Flint City Rebellion
What happened in Flint City, very suddenly.
Several major families united with the city to claim the sky, using the guards in the city, as well as the private armies of several major families, to unite to launch a rebellion.
And Ni Qiang's 200 people are still defenseless, and they are in the city, in this case, it is conceivable that they are powerless and can be slaughtered.
And precisely, this incident happened on the day of the war between Thunder Blade and Situ Nanxing, so Thunder Blade didn't get any news about this, and he didn't care about Flint City.
Who would have known that something like this would happen in Flint City?
After the victory, Thunderblade sent someone to give the news to Flint City, but the Flint City side received the news and did not reply.
This strange move did not attract the attention of Lei Jian and Chen Chao, so it was only ten days that dragged on.
Thunder Blade knew very well that the three major families of Flint City United City advocated the Tiangao rebellion, not just because Thunder Blade extorted them 1.2 billion taels of silver.
It can be said that this incident was just a fuse.
The real reason is that the Thunder Blade came to Flint City, hindering the interests of the three major families to make a fortune, and also weakening Zhang Tiangao's power and influence.
Therefore, these people can be said to hit it off and plot to start a rebellion.
"General Lei, we only have more than 3,000 people, and if we attack Flint City, I'm afraid we don't have much chance of winning. As far as I know, the three major families of Flint City and Zhang Tiangao's troops add up to more than 2,000 people, plus after the Flint City side learned that we had won the battle, they began to recruit troops, at this time, I am afraid that there are at least close to 5,000 people in Flint City. Here, Flint City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and I still supervised the construction of those strong fortifications, so ......"
When he was about to arrive in Flint City, Chen Chao thought about it for a while and cautiously said to Thunder Blade. "In my opinion, it is better to bring the newly recruited soldiers from Li Yunlong's side to reinforcements, it is said that he has recruited more than 10,000 people over there, and with more than 10,000 people, we will win!"
Indeed, Flint City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, coupled with the kind of progressive defense, 10,000 people attack 5,000 people to defend Flint City, there is no absolute certainty that it can be captured.
Thunder Blade nodded: "Let's station outside Flint City first, and wait for Li Yunlong's army to come and attack directly." ”
The men and horses drove into the place three miles outside the city of Flint City, and Thunderblade ordered to be stationed.
It's just that Thunder Blade didn't expect that he wouldn't provoke these three families, and the three major families in Flint City actually took the initiative to provoke him!
On the second day after the large army was stationed, someone from Flint City came and asked for the next order from the gate of Thunder Blade Flint City.
Thunder Blade sneered: "A group of things that don't know whether they are alive or dead, why is General Ben going?" ”
The man said: "Our city lord said, if you still want to see your good brother Ni Qiang, it is best to appear at the gate of Flint City on time at twelve o'clock at noon tomorrow." Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't see it again in your life! Remember, you can only come alone, otherwise, you will bear the consequences! ”
After the man finished speaking, he left arrogantly.
Chen Chao wanted to catch the man and clean it up, but the thunder blade stopped him.
Hearing Ni Qiang's news, Lei Jian was worried and happy.
The good news is that Ni Qiang is most likely not dead, but he survived.
The worry is that Ni Qiang fell into the hands of Zhang Tiangao, and I am afraid that he will suffer a lot. The most fatal thing is that if Zhang Tiangao uses Ni Qiang to blackmail him into doing all kinds of things, how should he deal with it?
"General Lei, you can't go alone. Zhang Tiangao made it clear that he wanted your life. Those three major families also hate you very much, if you appear under the city tower of Flint City, they want to kill you, you don't have to go down the city tower, it will be easy! Chen Chao said worriedly.
Chen Chao's worries were not unreasonable, naturally, Thunder Blade also knew very well that if he wanted him to go under the city tower of Flint City, such a close distance, if the crossbowmen were ambushed, it would be difficult for Thunder Blade to get out at that time.
However, Lei Jian asked Chen Chao rhetorically: "Ni Qiang is my brother, he fell into the hands of Zhang Tiangao, you say, should I save him?" Is there any other way besides this method? ”
Suddenly, Chen Chao was silent for a while, and he was also speechless.
"Okay, the soldiers will come to block, and the water will cover the earth. This wave of people in Flint City can be regarded as having touched my scales, hum, they want to kill me? Rest assured, it will only be them who will die. Let's take a closer look at what to do......"
Thunder Blade called Chen Chao into the camp tent, and the two could only discuss and plan "helplessly".
……
At noon on the second day, Lei Jian went up the mountain alone and came to the bottom of the city gate of Flint City as promised, which was thirty or forty meters away from the city gate.
"Haha, Thunder Blade, you're a man who values love and righteousness!"
Seeing the Thunder Blade appear, on the tower of the city gate, Zhang Tiangao laughed.
Upstairs, Zhang Tiangao stood in the center, and next to him, the patriarchs of the three major families were also standing aside.
"Thunderblade, don't blame us, you forced us! You extorted our money and blocked our path out of the city, which is clearly cutting off our financial route! Hmph, our three major families have always believed in only one principle for those who are wealthy, that is, there is no forgiveness for killing! ”
Next to Zhang Tiangao, Zheng Jingguo said loudly at the thunder blade.
At this time, the Thunder Blade's divine sense had already expanded, and although there was a powerful True Qi protection on the gate tower of Flint City, he still found out lightly, and on the tower of the city gate, there was indeed a team of True Qi crossbowmen, more than twenty people.
"Use the True Qi Bow and Crossbow that shoots the Demon Beast against me, these people are really ruthless!" Thunderblade gritted his teeth in his heart.
He raised his head, swept his gaze over the people on the tower of the city gate, and said sharply: "Don't talk nonsense, hand over Ni Qiang." ”
When Zhang Tiangao heard this, he waved his hand, and immediately two soldiers escorted one person to the city gate tower.
The man was wearing a black hood, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but he was scarred all over his body, and he looked like he had been severely punished!
Call!
A soldier took off his hood, and sure enough, it was Ni Qiang!
It's just that at this time, Ni Qiang's nose is blue and his face is swollen, and his face is haggard, and at first glance, he has been ravaged by the people of Flint City to a certain extent!
Thunder Blade clenched his fists and said angrily: "You guys who deal with me like this, do you know? ”
"Hahaha, the end? What ended? ”
Zhang Tiangao looked up to the sky and laughed, "Thunder Blade, do you think you are great if you have soldiers?" I also have it, I'm not afraid to sue you, I'm ready to take refuge in Emperor Wu, Emperor Wu's reinforcements. It's coming soon, haha, when the time comes, I'll see what capital you have to say wildly in front of me! ”
Next to Zhang Tiangao, Wang Guohai, the head of the Wang family, who had always been dissatisfied with the Thunder Blade, also stood up, sneered, and said, "Hmph, at this time, do you think we will still be scared by you?" Thunderblade, I'm curious about what happened to you. Get on my knees! ”
Suddenly with an angry roar, Wang Guohai directly took out a dagger and put the dagger in front of Ni Qiang's neck!
