Chapter 56: Unexpected Circumstances

And when Tang Xiao and the three arrived in the rich area, the three commanders of Ma, Du, and Fu had already led their troops to rush outside the county guard's mansion.

Not only them, but even Mr. Zhao and Yang Juncheng also arrived outside the mansion.

But the five of them did not go up to support Meng Junshou at the first time, but gathered together, and then shouted at Prison Director Xiao Dian and his group, wanting to know what was going on.

Han Bin approached them and told them about the blood book left behind by the Zhou envoys, and asked them to follow them in the crusade against Meng Junshou.

They can't help but hesitate.

Now there is this blood letter of the Zhou envoy as evidence, the fall of Meng Junshou is the general trend, the state government will definitely not let Meng Junshou stay in the position of the county guard, if they help Meng Junshou resist the defenders of Dongcheng, it is very likely that they will be a tiger, and when the state government comes to liquidate, it will inevitably be dismissed and investigated together with them.

But if they don't help Meng Junshou and let the defenders of Dongcheng catch Meng Junshou, then it will be Warden Xiao Dian who has made a contribution, and the position of Changshi is likely to fall into the hands of Warden Xiao's faction.

This is a nightmare for political struggles!

"Why don't we wait and see what happens?" Commander Fu put forward his own opinion.

This would have been a pretty perfect proposition.

Let the two sides in front of them fight, if the defenders of Dongcheng win, they will go up to fight for credit, if the guards win, they will see if the remaining strength of the guards can protect the Mengjun guards, and then decide whether to retreat or attack.

All in all, there is no endless contradiction between them and Meng Junshou.

However, Han Bin will not give them the opportunity to sit back and enjoy their success, and Tang Xiao will not give them the situation of praying mantis catching cicadas.

Tang Xiao saw that the Ma Commander's side was not moving, and was about to let Wu Liu'er go out to stimulate the Wang family, so that the Wang family would lose their minds and take the lead in attacking the Wu family, but he saw Han Bin suddenly show a sneer, and then shouted at the soldiers under the command of Ma, Du, and Fu.

The scene that followed made everyone present stunned.

The three commanders, Ma, Du, and Fu, never expected that the recruits they had just brought out would all change their doors under Han Bin's order.

They watched as the recruits were not under their own command, but joined the attack of the defenders of Dongcheng according to Han Bin's orders.

They were allowed to shout angrily, but the recruits acted as if they had silenced their voices.

All of a sudden, they became the Commander of the Light Pole, and only the more than fifty recruits that Commander Ma had personally recruited before remained behind them, so that they did not look too pitiful.

They hated and were angry, but to no avail.

It turns out that all I have been raising is a group of white-eyed wolves! In the end, isn't this all about making wedding dresses for others?

And Tang Xiao, who was hiding in the distance, was also stunned when he saw this scene.

He really didn't expect things to come out like this.

It was completely beyond his expectations.

It was only then that he realized that he was not at all costs.

And this accident had a great impact on his entire plan.

Originally, he planned to take advantage of this infighting to pull all the foundation building monks who should be involved into this battle, but now that he has suffered this accident, I am afraid that the side of the horse commander will not dare to move at all.

And in the end, Prison Director Xiao Dian's faction will also take down Meng Junshou more easily, and in the process, there will probably not be too many dead and wounded soldiers and foundation building monks.

Tang Xiao couldn't help but glance at Han Bin twice, he always felt that it was this person who guided this accident and made his entire plan face the danger of falling short.

He secretly thought in his heart: "This person seems to be the second son of Han from the Luoxian County Commander's family, right? I really didn't expect it to be such a fish that slipped through the net and almost ruined my entire plan." This man must never be let go again! A womanizer like him, who has defiled many women of good families, should also do the right thing for heaven. I've got to think about how to save the situation and kill this thief by the way!"

Just as he pondered what to do with the accident, the pressure on the Guard's defenses doubled as the recruits joined the battlefield.

It's just that the attack power of the recruits is low, and the arrows they shoot are also inaccurate, and they are all ordinary people, and their physical strength is far inferior to that of cultivators, if they don't occupy a numerical advantage, the arrows shot indiscriminately can form a rain of arrows to suppress, I'm afraid that the soldiers of the Guards will not take them to heart at all.

But the current situation is that the defenders of Dongcheng plus three new troops, the total number of which is four times that of the Guards, can kill the master with blind punches in the case of more fights and fewer fights.

Therefore, just after the recruits shot the first wave of arrows, the defenders of Dongcheng seized the opportunity well and stormed in one fell swoop, and the courtyard wall of the county guard mansion was forcibly broken down for a while.

The Guards began to get more nervous.

Once a breach in the war defense line is opened, it will be like a dam bursting from the gap, and it will continue to collapse from the gap until the entire defense line is completely lost.

The defenders of the eastern city frantically flocked to the crumbling courtyard wall, not giving the guards a chance to fill the gap.

The two sides began to officially engage in hand-to-hand combat.

And in terms of the superior strength of the defenders of Dongcheng, the gap in the courtyard wall is getting bigger and bigger, and it is not even enough to have a cup of tea, and the courtyard wall, which is not too thick, suddenly collapses on all sides.

The Guards no longer had a courtyard wall to shield them from a rain of arrows, nor did they have a chance to rely on the protection of the courtyard wall to throw their magic powers into the streets, and they began to have to fight the attacking enemy in hand-to-hand combat.

When hand-to-hand combat began, the recruits played a bigger role.

Originally, their flesh and blood suffered extremely in the face of the rain of arrows, and long-distance combat was not their advantage, but once they began to fight in close quarters, they would be able to besiege a cultivator in groups of three or five, giving full play to their numerical advantage.

The Guards fought harder.

They began to retreat one after another, retreating into the county guard as they fought.

The defenders of the eastern city continued to penetrate into the county guard's mansion, and the more they fought, the more excited they became.

When Meng Junshou saw this scene, he turned out to be the first person to retreat first.

He began to doubt the loyalty of the Guards Commander Lai, and naturally he would not leave his fate to the Guards to control, so he planned to let the Guards be cannon fodder to eliminate the enemy troops who came to attack for him.

And all he had to do was retreat to the inner courtyard of the county guard's mansion, where there were a few courtyard-guarding circles, and with the help of those circles, he would be able to deal with the invading enemy.

But the current situation, in the eyes of Ma Commander and his group, is that the general trend of the Meng County guard side has gone, and Xiao Dian's faction is taking advantage of the victory to pursue.

Ma led a group of people to discuss countermeasures.

"What now? Originally, we could still rely on recruiting excess soldiers and horses in exchange for military merits, so as to compete for the position of Changshi, but now the recruited soldiers and horses have changed their banners, and our credit is already empty, if we let Prison Director Xiao Dian and them take the Mengjun Shou, I am afraid that the position of Changshi will really have no chance with us!"

When the time comes, political opponents become their top bosses, will they still have a good end?
