Chapter Forty-Nine: Your Uncle is Still Uncle
Dingxiang County, Luo County.
The county, with a population of less than 5,000 people, is as depressed as ever, with low walls and ruined towers.
In the county seat and county government, dozens of county officials gathered together, staring at the person at the top, this is from the county order who has just arrived.
It stands to reason that Luo County is a small town and will not be placed in the post of county order, but who knows, the new Taishou acted decisively and alone, and when a paper document was issued, there was an additional county order for no reason.
"Ladies and gentlemen, from today onwards, I will work with you to manage this county, and I hope you will support you a lot."
The new county magistrate was the first to speak, and this person was Xin Qiji.
The county lieutenant and the county lieutenant at the head of the county deliberately turned their heads to the side, pretending to be indifferent.
"Ahem......"
Xin Qiji coughed lightly, his face pale, and sneered: "Aren't you all deaf?" Or dumb? ”
County Cheng Huangsha pretended to arch his hand and replied: "My lord, Luo County is a big place, with a population of only more than 3,000 people, just a few of us are more than enough, you can enjoy yourself in the government with peace of mind." ”
"That's good!"
Xin Qijian said tepidly, and then brushed his sleeves away, leaving the county officials with a blank face.
In the backyard of the county government, the charcoal fire in the house is cracking, and it is warm, which is a world of difference from the outside of the house.
"Master Xin, how's it going?"
One person in the room opened his mouth and asked, this person was Pei Yuanshao, who came with Xin Qiji, and there were two hundred thousand Niu Wei who came with him.
Xin Qiji walked into the house, shook his head, laughed self-deprecatingly, and then slowly spoke: "It's all a group of rabble, if it wasn't for the lord's order when he came, let the soldiers not move, otherwise I won't be able to spare them."
Xin Qiji and his entourage came to Luo County, ostensibly as a routine, but in fact it was to explore the affairs of the Xiongnu and prepare for the future.
Pei Yuanshao said with a smile: "Come, Master Xin, don't be angry, I just warmed up a few pots of old wine for you, and you can get drunk tonight." ”
"Drunk?"
Xin Qiji chuckled, beating him for as long as he could remember, and he had never been drunk.
The two poured the wine to the brim and drank it with an open stomach.
……
West of Luo County.
On the deserted streets, there was a group of homeless people, ragged and shivering in the cold wind.
"King Youxian, the brethren are ready, and you can do it tonight."
This group of people is not really beggars, but Huns dressed as beggars, Hu Chuquan is also among them, they have been sneaking into Luo County for three days, and they have already explored everywhere.
Hu Chuquan asked in a low voice, "Who are the two hundred new people who came yesterday?" What are they here for? ”
A Hun replied: "It is said that it is a new county order." ”
"Prefectural order!"
Hu Chuquan snorted coldly, after tonight, no matter whether you are a county commander or a county lieutenant, you have to die, and no one wants to live.
"Pass my order, start tonight, use fire as a signal, set off inside and outside the city at the same time, seize the city gate, put in the army, kill the county government in one fell swoop, and arrest the county officials."
"No!"
The Huns answered, then turned and walked to another alley.
The night wind was howling, the cold wind was biting, and the people in the city closed the gate early and hid in the bed.
The county soldiers on the tower of the city are hiding in the small building, surrounded by the stove, you say a word, I talk about the things of the south and the north of the world.
At some point, a fire suddenly broke out in the city, and the flames soared into the sky, intensifying and dyeing a large part of the sky.
"It's on fire, come and put out the fire!"
After a while, there was a scream in the city, and the gongs and drums sounded, waking up all the people in the vicinity, and carrying buckets to put out the fire.
In the busy work of everyone, nearly 100 people quietly approached the city tower, and then took out the scimitar hidden behind their backs and went straight to the small building.
"Kill!"
Hu Chuquan yelled, then kicked open the small door and slashed at the county soldiers inside.
A group of county soldiers, look at me, I look at you, but before they could react, they were hacked to death in a small building by the people led by Hu Chuquan.
"Someone, go and open the gates!"
Hu Chuquan immediately commanded, then looked at the fire in the city, and said with a smile: "The show has just been staged." ”
Outside the city, the horses neighed, nearly a thousand cavalry rushed straight forward, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, the fire in the city was skyrocketing, chaotic, no one would notice the movement at the city gate.
"Kill!"
It wasn't until the Huns rushed to the front that the people in the city realized that something was wrong, and exclaimed: "It's not good, the Huns are coming, run!" ”
Under the sharp scimitar, unarmed civilians were brutally killed, and the city fell into chaos.
In the backyard of the county government, Pei Yuanshao had already drunk on the wine case and fell asleep, but Xin Qiji was still drinking alone for fun like a person who had nothing to do.
Xin Qiji likes to drink, but he doesn't drink often, and if he wants to drink, he will not stop until he has fun.
"My lord, something is wrong, the Huns have come in!"
A captain of the Thousand Bull Guard burst in.
"Huns?"
Xin Qi said quickly, then stood up straight, his eyes shining, and shouted: "What are you still stunned for, gather people and kill them." ”
The captain of the Qianniu guard hurriedly said: "My lord, there are thousands of Huns, we still temporarily avoid the edge, escape through the back door, and wait for the opportunity to move." ”
"Run?"
Xin Qiji roared angrily: "It's the Huns who want to escape, not us, let Qianniuwei gather all and go with me to kill the enemy." ”
"Yes!"
The captain of the Thousand Niu Guard can only be ordered to accompany him.
Xin Qiji's body exuded the smell of wine, holding a long sword, and he walked forward quickly, without the slightest slowness.
On the long street, a group of Hun cavalry went straight to the county government, and happened to encounter Xin Qiji, who went out to kill the enemy.
"Who is coming, you can know your uncle Xin Qiji!"
At this moment, Xin Qiji's heart is full of pride, and he will never stop if he does not kill all the Huns in the city tonight.
"Haha......"
The Hun centurion looked at Xin Qiji's appearance and said with a smile: "It's just a drunkard, and he still wants to kill people, it seems that he is really tired of it." ”
"Go, hack this man to death!"
The centurion smiled contemptuously, as if looking at a dead man.
The Hun cavalry behind the centurion rode forward, their scimitars raised high, and slashed towards Xin Qi at the front.
Xin Qiji jumped forward, and the long sword in his hand stabbed out quickly, first knocking off the wrist of a Hun with a sword, and then turning around with a sword and piercing the chest of a Hun man.
Everyone didn't expect that a drunkard would be so powerful, and the centurion was stunned, looking at this Xin Qiji, who claimed to be your uncle, in amazement.
Qianniu Wei, who was following behind Xin Qiji, suddenly had a high morale, and shouted in unison: "My lord is mighty! ”
At this moment, Xin Qiji was like being protected by the god of war, majestic, domineering and leaking, and immediately rode forward to kill, and the Huns who killed were holding their heads and running away, your uncle is still your uncle after all.
