The residence of the prefect of Yongpei. The local Cheng Xuan Political Envoy Division, the Inspector Envoy Division, the garrison and other staff all came to the mansion overnight to meet the prefect Li Qi.

"Lord Futai, in the battle during the day, more than half of our army suffered casualties, such a large Yongping Mansion, there are only four or five hundred people left, how can it be defended?"

"Yes, my lord, if it goes on like this, Yongping City will not last for two days, and the Tartars will inevitably slaughter the city when they attack it, and then everyone and money will be exhausted, and this young man can no longer be tossed around, Lord Futai should hurry up and get an idea."

……

These parents and officials, every word you say to me, with a bitter look on your face, is a hundred dissatisfied with Lin Yi.

The prefect's big gong face also showed regret, and of course they were always paying attention to the war in the city.

He paced back and forth in the house for a few steps, not to mention that they were not leaving the house, they were very well informed.

Now the Tartars have surrounded the city, and Lin Yi has changed the four guards, and issued a death order, no one is allowed to open the city, and those who violate the order will be beheaded.

Is it impossible to take back the order, cure the crimes of Lin Yi and others, and then lead all the staff to open the city and surrender to the Tartars? Breaking through and escaping is now absolutely impossible.

If it doesn't work, the Tartars love to kill, and even if they surrender now, I'm afraid they won't be able to escape this fate......

In the end, the prefect sent them away, told them to go back to the house, and let him think about it again before making a decision.

Wang Cheng returned to his house, and his family had all packed up. After the second watch, the housekeeper went to look outside the door of the house, and the street was quiet, and there was no one outside.

Wang Cheng gave an order, and the door of the mansion was opened. The big car and the small car came out of the house, the three wives and four concubines plus their business savings over the years, even the people and things were loaded with nearly ten cars, the maid and the maid and the maid Ding Nursing Home, plus Wang Cheng's personal guards, this line of two or three hundred, out of the palace gate, to the west city gate.

Wang Cheng is now planning to surrender to the Tartars, and he now knows that it is impossible to break through and escape. He believed that the Tartars were also human beings, and it should not be difficult to send them gold, silver, treasure, beautiful women, and livestock brocade to save the lives of their families.

It's better than waiting to die in the city!

"Who? Stop, don't go any further! ”

When they reached the city gate, they were spotted by the soldiers of the night watch, who drank them, and countless torches lit them.

"Blind your dogs, you dare to stop the frame of the guarded adult?" Wang Cheng's chief came up and scolded.

These soldiers are all Wang Cheng's subordinates, and at first glance, they are really their former garrison adults, so late with their families, big cars and small cars, and the soldiers are not stupid, they know what their garrison adults want to do.

These soldiers hurriedly saluted: "Please forgive the villain's clumsiness, I don't know that the adult is coming, and forgive the sin in person."

"Come here with less damn water, hurry up and open the city!" The steward is as horizontal as a bald-tailed dog.

"No, my lord, Lord Lin and Lord Zhang have death orders, without them, no one will dare to open the city, otherwise they will be killed."

"Which Lord Lin and Lord Zhang?"

"It's Lin Yi, the hero of the anti-Qing Dynasty, and Zhang Shouye, the official of the government."

"Fart! Where is Lord Lin, what is he Lin Yi, don't you even listen to the words of Lord Guard? ”……

As soon as they quarreled like this, the garrison Wang Cheng came up with the guards.

Wang Cheng was fully clothed, covered in armor, carrying a big knife, and there was a bit of majesty in the firelight, but at this time, his face had the light of a yin owl.

"What's going on?"

"My lord, these people who are not long-sighted dare not open the city. said that this was the order of Lin Yi and Zhang Tuiguan, and those who opened the city without authorization were beheaded. ”

Wang Cheng snorted coldly and looked at these former generals, "Wang is the garrison of the city, Lin Yi and Zhang Shouye can kill you, can't my Wang Chengcheng kill you?" ”

Saying that, Wang Cheng shook the big knife in his hand.

The generals guarding the gate and patrolling the city were immediately frustrated, and they all looked at each other at a loss.

"This garrison tells you the truth, this city can no longer be defended, you know how many soldiers and generals were killed and injured in the battle during the day, more than half, after dawn, the Tartars will definitely attack the city in a big way, Lin Yi is to let you die in vain. Hurry up and open the city, for the sake of your former loyalty, this garrison will not only save your lives, but also reward you with a mouthful of food, you can think carefully about what to do. ”

"The garrison is right, let's open the city quickly, we can't wait for death." Sure enough, some of these gatekeepers wavered.

"No, if you want to open the city, you must inform Lord Zhang."

"Where is the time? Besides, Master Zhang will never agree......"

"Who is going out of the city! Oh Lord Garrison, it's so late, bringing your family with you, pulling so many things, where are you going? Zhang Shouye appeared with a few people, and just now he was inspecting the defense in the city.

The garrison and the magistrate have never been on good terms.

Wang Cheng also let go today, and gritted his teeth: "Zhang Shouye, you are just a pusher, what are your responsibilities?" Dare to stop this garrison? ”

"Hahaha, Lord Wang still dares to mention his duties, as the garrison of a city, the enemy is currently about to flee, is this the duty of your garrison?"

Of course, Wang Cheng couldn't admit it, and the roll of his eyes was a lie: "Fart, who said that the garrison was going to escape, and there was something wrong inside, so you need to go to the Sanguan Temple outside the city overnight to offer incense."

"In that case, is there an order from Lord Lin to go out of the city?" Zhang Shouye sneered.

"This official is the garrison of a city, how old is the surname Lin, and he has to have his order to go out of the city?"

"Lord Wang can not put Lord Lin and this official in his hands, and don't he take the orders of Lord Futai in his eyes? Lord Lin is the prefect who personally appointed the lord of the city to defend the city, and he can call on some forces and resources in the city to defend the city, and block it, and cut off those who are passive and sabotage. At that time, the garrison, the political envoy, the judge and other adults were all there, so Lord Wang wouldn't know about it, right? ”

"Oh, that's the thing. But at this time, at that time. Wang has already asked the people of Futai to go out of the city this time, and he went out of the city according to the instructions of the people of Futai and opened the city quickly. ”

"Forgive this official for all difficulties. It is not difficult for Lord Wang to open the city, but he must have an order from Lord Lin, and this official is ordered to defend the city, how can he be deceived by an edict that comes out of his mouth? ”

Wang Cheng's eyebrows stood and he was impatient, his hand rose and fell, and a defender of the city fell in a pool of blood.

"Kaesong!" Wang Cheng's face was hideous.

The generals defending the city were so frightened that they retreated again and again, and some of them really ran to open the city gates.

"Wang Cheng, you dare to kill soldiers in order to escape for your life, you are mad, and this official wants to play a copy of you in front of the court."

"Zhang Shouye, Lao Tzu has long seen that you are not a thing, and you dare to collude with Ning Yuanjun, sure enough, it is Yuan Chonghuan's fellow party, kill me!"

Wang Cheng's personal guards and family guards rushed up with knives and guns.

Some of the soldiers guarding the city gate ran away, and only those who were loyal to their duties remained, and the two sides scuffled near the city gate, killing and wounding a dozen people in the blink of an eye.

There were few soldiers guarding the city gate, and they were weak soldiers, plus some of them ran away, and the rest were of course not the opponents of Wang Cheng and others.

Zhang Shouye is an out-and-out civil official, he has no power to restrain the chicken, he can write and make articles, but he is a layman who fights and plays hard.

But at this time, he also let go, pulled out the sword of self-defense, and threw himself at Wang Cheng and the others.

"Traitor, I'll fight with you!"

With just one sword, Wang Cheng swung away Zhang Shouye's sword, and the sword light flashed again, and Zhang Shouye fell in a pool of blood.

Wang Cheng led people to kill the city guards, and he was about to open the city gate, but Zhang Shouye, who was covered in blood, miraculously blocked the city gate.

"The head can be broken, the blood can be shed, and the gates of the city cannot be opened!" Zhang Shouye, whose mouth was full of blood, leaned his back against the city gate, and his two eyes were dead, staring at Wang Cheng and the others.

Wang Cheng raised the big knife in his hand, and with a poof, the big knife poked into Zhang Shouye's abdomen, Zhang Shouye's mouth came out with a mouthful of blood, and his body slowly leaned against the city gate, sitting there forever, blood splashed at the city gate, and the adults died without looking at it.

"Get this old guy's body out of the way, and get out of town!"

Before Wang Cheng's words fell, there was no movement behind him, and a team of torches came with a neighing horse, lined up in a long line, the sound of several war horses, and the sound of countless people running.

"Lord Lin Yi has an order, not to open the city! Violators will be killed! ”……

A team with a mixture of military and civilian, specially equipped, came here like a tide and surrounded Wang Cheng's people.

Wang Cheng and the others were already thieves, but when they saw that so many people had come, these people under him didn't dare to move.

Under the illumination of countless torches, Lin Yi's resolute face as iron appeared. Lin Yi, who is as majestic as a general, is followed by Xiaoying, Zhang Hua, Erhu, He Tao, Wang Qi, Dongsheng and several other generals.

Look at the people who surround them, these people are ragged, men, women, young and old, tall, short, fat and thin, black and white, ugly and handsome, everything. Looking at the guys in their hands, they are even more varied.

Despite all the unevenness, they glared angrily one by one.

"My lord? …… Mr. Zhang, how are you? Lin Yi and Xiaoying came over and helped Zhang Shouye up in a pool of blood, and shouted repeatedly, but there was no sign of life.

"You killed Master Zhang?" Lin Yi's eyes were like fire, and he approached Wang Cheng.

"Yes, it was Lao Tzu who killed him. The old guy didn't know the current affairs, and he just wouldn't open the city when he asked him to open it, so in desperation, I killed him. But it's not a big deal, there is evidence to prove that he colluded with Ning Yuanjun, it really belongs to Yuan Chonghuan's party, and this garrison will naturally have an explanation for Shangfeng, Lord Lin, you came just in time, open the city, this official has to do something urgent when he goes out of the city. ”

"It's going to surrender the Tartars! You dog officer, someone Lin will kill you first! Lin Yi burned his chest and pulled out the steel knife, jumped up from the horse, and went straight to Wang Cheng.

Zhang Hua, He Tao, Wang Qi, and Erhu each raised their blades to follow Lin Yi and kill Wang Cheng and others.

When Xiao Ying and Dong Sheng saw it, they both made a move, and the two shouted: "New first battalion, new second battalion, kill all these rebellious ministers and thieves!"

Hundreds of ordinary people, with a snorting voice, each raised their hands and rushed towards Wang Cheng and the others......
