When the Zengtou City Brigade appeared under Lingzhou City and shouted loudly, Chu Mingsheng, the Lingzhou Metropolitan Supervisor in the city, was frowning and listening to his subordinates report the situation in the granary. He was naturally skeptical of what his subordinates said, especially when it came to the fact that Zengtou City would be unfavorable to Fucheng, and he couldn't believe it.

You must know that just a few days ago, he went to Zengtou City with Governor Weng and drank with Zeng Lane and others, and they couldn't see the slightest hostility at that time. What's more, he knew that Zeng Tou City could eat all the black and white here, relying on friendship with the government, how could they do such a ridiculous thing?

Just when he wanted to reprimand Zhu Tao, let him talk nonsense, and disturb the morale of the army, a large number of people suddenly appeared under the city, and they quickly revealed their identities and asked the city head to open the door. In this way, Chu Mingsheng's face, who was still a little disapproving, became solemn: "Could this statement be true?" Zeng Tou City was really completely colluded with the Jurchens, otherwise why would he come to Fucheng late at night? ”

Thinking of this, he immediately whispered a few words to one of his subordinates, and this one poked his head out and shouted downward, "Is it really the brother of Zengtou City who came?" Please forgive me, there was a strict order that no one should be allowed to enter or leave the city tonight, so go back first and come back tomorrow. ”

Naturally, this is unacceptable, today Zengtou City poured out, except for those young people who can fight, even the women and children of the family have been brought out, how can they go back easily? What's more, there is a big battle going on behind them at this time, maybe when they turn back, they will meet those fierce and warlike Jurchens, isn't that hitting the muzzle of the gun?

So soon, Zeng Tu urged his horse forward and shouted loudly to the city: "I am Zeng Tu, a friend of your Chu Dujian for many years, even if he can stop anyone, he will not stop me outside the city." You quickly reported my original words to the Chudu Prison, and said that there will be a big disaster in Lingzhou this time, and the people in Zengtou City are here to report the news and help defend the city! ”

Chu Mingsheng in the city frowned when he heard this, and he was even a little annoyed in his heart, this Zeng Tu was too big! Although he has a lot of dealings with the Zeng family on weekdays, and his relationship with them is not bad, he really hasn't regarded him as a friend. Especially at this time, the friends and enemies of the Zeng family are unknown, he actually climbs indiscriminately, what if he affects himself at that time?

At that moment, he whispered a few more words, and his subordinates understood, and shouted downward: "Zeng Gongzi, forgive me, it's really hard to recognize people when it's dark at this time, if you really have the heart to Lingzhou for me, then tell the news, but I don't dare to open this city gate!" ”

This made Zeng Tu a little dumbfounded, but the second brother Zeng Mi behind him was annoyed at this time, their Zeng family used to be a sideways existence in Lingzhou, when was it so rejected and looked down upon, coupled with the urgency of the situation, he couldn't hold back his anger anymore, so he also took two steps forward and shouted: "Don't give face to you thieves, don't give face, how can you afford to provoke my Zeng family?" Hurry up and open the door, or watch out your heads!" "It's really not overbearing and arrogant!

"Second brother, don't talk nonsense!" Zeng Mi's heart was half cold when he heard this, this is the time when his family has something to ask for others, how can he be as unscrupulous as before?

The defenders in the city were all furious at this time, if they were usually scolded by the son of the Zeng family, they would have endured it, but today they were clearly acting on orders, and they couldn't bear to be so humiliated, if it weren't for Chu Dujian by his side, they would definitely scold back, and even shoot a few arrows to the city to vent their anger.

Chu Mingsheng's face also became extremely gloomy, this thief with the army scolded him all, because he actually had tattoos on his cheeks, and he was really promoted by fighting with the Xia people!

His heart was angry, and he couldn't care about any face: "Tell them, either get out or wait for the arrow!" This Lingzhou is not up to them! "Whether it is for himself or for his subordinates, Chu Dujian must make his attitude clear. At this time, don't say that there are only people from the Zeng family outside the city, even if the prefect is there, he has to go back!

When the people in the city heard such a resolute and simple answer from above, they were completely dumbfounded.

The Zeng family really didn't expect that today's Lingzhou City would be so difficult to enter, and it was obvious that they didn't trust their own family.

Just when Zeng Tu looked at his father and Zeng Lane planned to come forward to say a few words in person, the movement of the fighting in the rear suddenly became louder, and then there was a loud explosion, which made the faces of the people outside the city change, and the defenders of the city finally found that there was still a fight going on more than ten miles away.

In this way, it made Chu Mingsheng believe that his decision was good, who knows what is following the rear of the Zeng family's team, once the city gate is opened, and the army behind them enters the city, this consequence is not something he can afford.

Zeng Lang was also anxious at this time, and when he didn't care about his dignity, he stepped forward in person, and after revealing his identity, he said: "The old man and the prefect Weng have always had a good relationship, don't you even let the old man enter the city gate today?" If this matter is known to the prefect, it will not spare you and others. ”

"I told you to leave, it's not too late to talk about anything tomorrow morning!" Facing the lord of the Zeng family, the defenders didn't dare to be too presumptuous: "Of course, you can also tell me what happened ...... big thing."

By this time, everyone in the Zeng family had nothing to do, so they couldn't really attack the city, not to mention that they didn't have the ability, even if they did, they wouldn't dare. So Zeng Mi could only shout at the city with a black face: "You all listen, my Zeng family just got the news that there will be a Jurchen army to kill Lingzhou, this matter is not trivial, only the defenders in the city can't resist it at all, only by letting hundreds of elites of my Zeng family enter the city, can there be hope of defending the city...... Also, the city is now mixed with Jurchen spies, so you should quickly track down and take down the people, so as not to cause a big mess. ”

"Sure enough, it has something to do with the Jurchens, but my government doesn't know about it, how did their Zeng family know the news?" Chu Mingsheng's first reaction after hearing this was suspicion. Originally, he only believed five points of Zhu Tao's statement, but now, he believed seven or eight points, in his opinion, the people of Zengtou City were clearly in the same group as the Jurchens, maybe most of the teams gathered in the city were Jurchens!

Once he had this thought, he would not open the city gate: "Pass my order, let them retreat quickly, and if they dare to stay in the city, they will be greeted with bows and arrows, and there is no need to worry." There is nothing like the safety of my Lingzhou City now! ”

The defenders, who had already had a great opinion of the Zeng family, immediately shot down an arrow when they heard this, and almost hit Zeng Mi who was standing at the front, and then before he could scold, someone shouted again: "No matter what you say, this city will not be opened today, you wait for the quick retreat, and if you dare to do it, it will not be this arrow later!" ”

As soon as these words were spoken, as if to prove how true they were, a row of bows and arrows had been set up at the head of the city, and countless arrows glittered in the light of the fire, which made people look at them with fear.

This time, the Zeng family has completely lost their incantation, and the defenders not only said the words completely to death, but also directly moved their hands, and even Zeng Rong's words are no longer good, what else can they call opening the city gate?

After hesitating for a moment, Zeng Mi could only sigh: "Let's go, go back to the town, it's better to be in danger there than to be out." "At this moment, he really regretted the decision he made in a hurry to come to Lingzhou, go back at this time, who knows if he will bump into the Jurchen army halfway.

Also, since the Jurchens are fighting with people, what is the number of ways for this army in the rear to fight against the fierce and capable Jurchens? If you meet them, will you be able to beat them? For the first time in his life, Zeng Mi had doubts about the combat strength of his team.

It wasn't until they saw that the team in Zengtou City finally retreated, and everyone in the city breathed a long sigh of relief, if the other party really insisted on not leaving, he really didn't dare to order the arrows to be released at will. But then, his mind turned to the dark night sky in front of him, because the rumbling explosion just now was too weird, and listening to the bursts of fighting, it made his heart beat for a while, I don't know which two people are killing together, and whether they are friends or enemies to Lingzhou Mansion?

Speaking of which, there are indeed too many unexpected things happening tonight, as if everyone didn't think about what kind of changes they would face next-

The people of the Tsing Yi Gang who were about to slaughter the fat sheep did not expect that the fat sheep in their eyes was terrifyingly powerful, so they were wiped out in an instant after entering the house.

The Jurchens, who had already entered the city, did not expect to encounter a sudden change, which completely disrupted their overall plan, and now they could only disrupt the western city with their powerful combat power, and finally defend the granary, but they were also under siege at this time, and it was difficult to have any effect.

They didn't expect that the Jurchens would cause an incident temporarily, thus missing the opportunity, and they didn't expect these guys to be so powerful that they couldn't resist it, and in the end they could only surround the granary with the official army, but it was difficult to have further possibilities.

The people of Zengtou City didn't expect some things one after another, they didn't expect that the Jurchens had deceived them before and set the real target in Lingzhou; They didn't expect that the Lingzhou officials and soldiers would be so resolute in the face of their request to enter the city, and they completely turned their faces and didn't recognize people, which exposed thousands of them to the wilderness of the night, and the situation was quite dangerous.

And the officials and soldiers in the city didn't expect that this seemingly peaceful night would give birth to so many chaos after the second watch, and it looked really dangerous and abnormal.

But all of them combined, none of them had expected the other two - the Qingzhou Army and the Jurchens!

The former didn't expect that he would collide head-on with a powerful Jurchen army just after he arrived near the zero axis, and the latter didn't expect that he would leave the village in a hurry, but collided with a Great Song official army.

So, a fight was completely launched because of such a change!
