It didn't take long for Yu Lan to hear the courtyard door open, and several groups of family members were brought in from the outside one after another, and these people were all driven into the hall, and Liu E was among them. Gradually, there were about 70 people in the family, and the leader saw that there were many people, and it was difficult to monitor them all standing, so he ordered all these people to sit down.

Some people saw that the momentum was getting more and more wrong, and the sergeants said that they were searching for spies, but this kind of indiscriminate handling of all the people who were imprisoned without saying a word was too weird. Some people whispered to each other and asked if anyone recognized the origin of these people, but although there were many people in the hall, no one knew.

Xin asked Yu Landao softly: "Lan'er, the situation is not right, almost all of the family members in this house are the families of the officers of various departments!" ”

Yu Lan snorted and frowned, "I don't know them either!" ”

Liu E said: "I recognize a few of them, they seem to be Liu Qi's subordinates. ”

"Don't speak! The general has an order, and I will temporarily grieve you today, in order to prevent the spies from slipping away and stealing the news, I have to temporarily gather you together, and naturally release you after one by one inquiry. I'm sorry, please forgive me, but if you don't obey the discipline, don't blame me for being ruthless! Several guards immediately reprimanded.

There was a lot of commotion here for a long time, and finally it gradually quieted down. The soldiers were all frosty and silent, except for the leader who came in and out from time to time, giving orders.

Because there were seven or eight sergeants in the hall who were watching coldly, everyone did not dare to speak anymore, and the hall gradually fell silent, only listening to the sound of autumn wind sweeping away the leaves in the city.

After a while, suddenly there was a shout in the city, first in one place, then in another, and soon in several places, the shouts became louder and louder, accompanied by the autumn wind, and everyone could vaguely hear the sound of shouting and killing inside!

The sound of fighting came and went, and the sound became louder and louder, and it was already clearly audible.

Everyone in the room looked at each other in shock, the movement was so loud, and the sound of fighting was so high and fierce, could it be that the official army had entered the city?

Yu Lan looked at the guards in the room and found that although these people were nervous, they didn't care too much. They all involuntarily listened to the sound of fighting in the city, but their expressions were a little excited, and a few of them walked around nervously, and their eyes swept to the night sky outside from time to time.

Yu Lan's heart moved, could it be that they already knew about these fights?

At this time, in the hall of the county government, Xie Lin's face turned pale, and he said to a messenger in front of him: "This official has always been kind to you, why did you actually do it as a tartar?" ”

This yacha was a little in awe of the former county Yin, and couldn't help but take a half step back and said: "Why do you bother to be with thieves, today's imperial army has arrived, and it is the time for adults to get rid of the sea of suffering and abandon the darkness and turn to the light." The little ones just can't get used to what thieves do, and they are willing to be the precursors of adults. ”

This yacha was originally a member of the county government, and after Yu Zhilong and others entered the city, this person was retained for him with his colleagues, or worked under Xie Lin. Today, Xie Lin learned that this person had already made an internal response to the Yuan Court.

"If Lord Xie is attached to the imperial court at this time, the little one will be a guarantee for the adult, and if you say a few good words to Lord Xuanwei, the matter of attaching the thief in the past will be stopped." A stout man dressed as an officer walked by.

"Forgive the official for being clumsy, I don't know what to call this person?" Schelling glanced at the man.

"The small Yidu East and West Dao Propaganda and Comfort Division's Military Intelligence Division has a hundred households of Yanqi Building, and the cheap name is insulting to the adult." Yan Qilou said indifferently, "Lord Zhuo, Lord Gu is full of praise for Lord Xie's talent, if there is no adult to help the thief plan, how can Liu Thief be prosperous today?" ”

Yan Qilou's words not only meant to win over, but also indirectly implied that Xie Lin's actions after attaching the thief would definitely be punished by Yidu Road. If there is no meritorious performance, I am afraid that the consequences will be unpredictable.

Although the 100 households of the Military Intelligence Department are in the same position as the 100 households of the Han Army, because of their special responsibilities, they are still half a level higher than the 100 households of the Military Intelligence Department.

Xie Lin's heart was cold, and he couldn't imagine that a few days after Yu Zhilong led his army south, this Linqu county town was secretly attacked by the Yidu Yuan army.

Thinking that Yu Zhilong also sneaked into the first battle that day and captured the city, between life and death, he was greedy for life and afraid of death for a while, and when he saw Yu Zhilong surrender, he couldn't help but surrender. Later, I saw that Yu Zhilong was heroic, with the ambition to win the world, and also the ability to tolerate people and achieve things, so he was determined to follow all the way.

Unexpectedly, this is the situation today, but this time it was the Yuan army that attacked. Providence makes people!

Xie Lin smiled bitterly, he had gone too far, not to mention whether the Yuan Court could tolerate himself to turn back again, even he couldn't forgive himself for turning back. Although life is precious, if you do that repeated villain, you will be ashamed to survive.

In fact, in Xie Lin's heart, he couldn't help but feel the melancholy of the death of a confidant. Although Yu Zhilong was young, he greatly appreciated Xie Lin's talent, and almost all the things that Xie Lin mentioned about governing were allowed to be carried out, and he was able to have a heart-to-heart discussion with Xie Lin, and try to make it as perfect as possible. As for what Yu Zhilong himself didn't understand and was not clear, he was not ashamed to ask. And Yu Zhilong's bold actions and some novel ideas also opened Schelling's eyes. It can be said that in the past month, the two have gradually run in and cooperated tacitly.

If they can create a world, presumably the two of them can make some achievements!

Heaven is not a wish!

Xie Lin finally shook his head and said word by word: "Although Xie is greedy for life and afraid of death, he doesn't want to be a repeated villain. If you don't have anything else to do, you can do it! ”

Yan Qilou was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect this Xie Lin to actually refuse his proposal. In addition to inquiring about the military situation everywhere, he carefully observed all the departments of the Shuntian Army and some people in the county government who might be recruited, looked for someone to knock on the side several times, and then came forward to recruit after he was sure. This was the case with the yacha just now, who was succeeded by the temptation of his promotion to make a fortune.

Although this Schelling is talented, his fear of death is inevitable. Otherwise, Yu Zhilong would not have been lowered in the first place.

"My lord, what should I do?" One of Liu Qi's hundreds of households came over a little anxiously and asked softly.

Because of the news transmission of the yacha, Yanqilou knew the situation in the county ya, just now, Yanqilou personally led the team, taking advantage of the darkness of the night, and secretly sneaked to the county yaya according to the plan.

Because of the suddenness of the incident, the yacha inside was completely defenseless, and many people were cut to the ground by Yanqilou and others before they could pull out their knives.

Ji Xiancheng once assigned a team of soldiers to Xie Lin, who were specially stationed in the county office, but unfortunately they were all blocked indoors by Yanqilou, and they were almost all shot by Yanqilou's men with crossbows, and those who did not hit the crossbow were quickly besieged and killed.

Now there are more than a dozen people around Xie Lin who are holding knives against each other, protecting Xie Lin. The rest of the officials and guards were either captured or dead on the ground.

And there are nearly 100 people here in Yanqi Tower! Among them, there were more than a dozen strong crossbows, pointing at Xie Lin and the others.

"I don't know how the Yuan army entered the city? Outside the city is the camp of the Suncheon army, could it be that they all slept to death? Or did ———, someone descend? Xie Lin looked at Yan Qilou's face and asked slowly.

Although Xie Lin is not familiar with military affairs, but no one knows about such a big matter when the Yuan army enters the city, and I think that someone is responding internally, but I am afraid that many senior officers in the Shuntian army will not be able to get out of it.

Yan Qilou smiled freely, and stood up with his hands in his hands: "Adults are confused, and the small ones should be solved by adults!" Today's events are all foresighted by Lord Yidugu, and the small ones are just a small pawn in front of the horse. ”

"As for the thieves of the camp outside the city, do you think they are monolithic?" Yan Qilou looked coldly at the dozen or so people in front of him who still wanted to resist stubbornly, "Now that the victory and defeat have been decided, why do you insist so much, don't you even care about the lives of these guards?" ”

Xie Lin looked left and right, the Yuan army archers in front of him were already ready to shoot, knowing that if he didn't make a decision, the dozen or so people around him were not lucky, so he had to sigh and wave his hand to signal everyone to put down their weapons.

Yan Qilou waved his hand, and his subordinates stepped forward to disarm all the dozen or so yacha, and then tied them one by one with rope locks, and pressed them aside with other prisoners. Xie Lin was put into a small room by Yanqi Lou and temporarily guarded.

Look at the sky, and then listen to the movements in various parts of the city, Yanqilou led people to walk outside the yamen, and a subordinate hurriedly ran in from outside the county yamen, and saw Yanqilou hurriedly came to report: Liu Zhengfeng's thief's house has not yet been attacked, and now there is a stalemate, please ask Yanqilou to transfer troops to support.

Yan Qilou frowned slightly when he heard this, tonight's action can be said to be promoted by himself, how to mobilize the soldiers and horses everywhere, who commands, how to receive aid from outside the city, etc., are all arranged in the slightest, and the capture of Liu Zhengfeng is an important part of tonight, and he specially arranged a part of the Han army's strong soldiers to carry it out with Liu Qi's subordinates, and I can't imagine that it is not over yet.

"Why is it so procrastinating? What are you eating? ”

The messenger didn't dare to hide it, and explained: "The subordinates sneaked over as planned, passed the guards, and when the team rushed in, unexpectedly, Liu Thief actually set up a secret post in his own house, and the other party warned and alarmed the inside, so it was just time to exterminate some of the thieves. ”

"How many thieves are in there?" Yan Qilou couldn't help but feel a little strange, he found out in advance that there were only thirty or forty personal soldiers in Liu Zhengfeng's house, but he had prepared one hundred and fifty people.

"Wen Baihu estimates that there are about 100 people. We've killed more than thirty people. ”

Yan Qilou was stunned, where did so many soldiers come from? Now without further ado, Liu Zhengfeng can't be delayed, so he turned his head and ordered a subordinate to say: "Immediately dispose of all the captured yamen, leave a few people to guard Xie Lin, close the gate of the yamen, and tie it up!" All the rest of the brothers followed me to the thief! ”

He said that if he disposed of it, he would cut it all down. The yacha next to him should have listened to Yan Qilou's words, and his face was already pale, but at this time he was even more pale. wanted to step forward to intercede for his companion, but the other person just took a step, and before he could speak, Yan Qilou wrinkled his eyebrows at him: "Huh—? ”

This yacha was abrupt in his heart, and when he saw that Yan Qilou's face was not good, he retreated again. He betrayed Xie Lin, and killed dozens of his companions, this place will not be able to stay in the future, and once this matter is over, I have to beg this Lord Yan to find a way out in other places. Don't him off now!

Yan Qilou hurried to Liu's house with his subordinates, and went into the backyard, only to see 100 households Wen Fangzheng commanding people to prepare ladders and firewood. There were still more than a dozen corpses lying in the courtyard, and everyone was busy with their work, and no one was able to dispose of them.

Seeing that Yanqilou had arrived, Wen Fang came over to report: "My lord, Liu Thief has completely blocked the courtyard gate, and the little one is trying to burn his mother with firewood!" ”

"Why are you so careless? I was discovered! Yan Qilou said angrily.

"It's a small carelessness! When I explored the road in front, I didn't find that I had just interrogated a captured thief, and it turned out that a group of thieves from the Jing'an Army entered the city tonight, and about 20 people entered Liu's house, and the secret post was set up by the thieves of the Jing'an Army. He hid on the roof and the little ones didn't find out! ”

"Has anyone from the Jing'an Army entered the city? How many people are there? Yan Qilou was taken aback.

"About two hundreds. That is, it has just entered the city for less than half an hour. The captives said that the rest of the thieves went to the courtyard where the Jing'an soldiers were recuperating from their wounds. Wen Fang replied, "There is a team of thieves who have been sent here. ”

"No wonder there are a lot of thieves in this county!" Yan Qilou suddenly realized, "Fortunately, I brought a lot of bows and crossbows this time, and I can only make contributions if I am not prepared to attack them." ”

"You should have merit, and you will be rewarded after the war!" Yan Qilou praised the attached yacha.

"Thank you, Lord Houen, the little one is willing to kill thieves for the court, and he will do whatever he wants!" The yachaben had a gloomy face, and when he heard this, he was overjoyed, and knelt down again and again to thank him.

He was so pleased that he drew the eyes and hatred of his captured colleagues.
