The sound of horses' hooves just now frightened the large crowd of homeless people back more than half a mile. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After that, Gao Fangping was on the city wall, and saw a group of more than 50 cavalry, quickly approaching the county seat.

"Who's coming?" Liang Hongying raised her voice to ask instead of Gao Fangping.

"Pei Yancheng of Daimyo County and the soldiers and horses of Daimyo Mansion are all supervising Suo Chao, and they were ordered to come to give orders." Someone in the cavalry ranks shouted.

When they reached the city, they reined in their horses, tilted their heads, and lit them up near their faces according to the custom, so that the people at the head of the city could see their faces and their clothes.

Gao Fangping saw that it was indeed Pei Yancheng and Suo Chao, and Wang Wu of the Hutou Battalion also followed them, and immediately said with great joy: "It's finally here, let them come in Kaicheng." ”

After the team of more than 50 people entered the city, Pei Yancheng turned over and dismounted, and ran up to the city with his hands on his back before he didn't have time to drink a sip of water.

Seeing Gao Fangping, the anxious old Pei didn't have time to speak, and the even more anxious Gao Fangping waved his hand directly and said: "Put away the nonsense, did Liang Zhongshu approve the action?" ”

Although Pei Yancheng was a little annoyed, he also nodded, handed the document to Gao Fangping and said, "Approve the Yongle Army to enter Gaotang!" ”

Gao Fangping unfolded the paperwork to confirm it, put it in his arms, turned his head and ordered: "Beacon Order!" Shi Wengong's troops immediately marched into Gaotang! ”

The two soldiers of the Tiger Head Battalion immediately poured the fierce fire oil on the firewood that had been prepared a long time ago.

After a torch was thrown, the sky-high flames rose with thick smoke. The pagoda-like pyre was blazing, and the flames were soaring to the sky......

Under the night.

Thirty miles away, Xiao Niu Gao, who had always been on standby on a mountain bag, saw the beacon signal in the direction of Gaotang and immediately shouted: "Light the beacon fire, hurry up!" ”

So a sergeant of the Tiger Head Battalion on standby immediately turned on the fierce fire oil and lit the raging fire......

One, two, three...... Along the line from Gotang to the Jeju border, at night, sky-high fires are constantly lit up.

Fifty miles north of Yang1gu County is the junction of Jeju and Boju.

The Yongle military camp has been on standby for a long time again.

One of the guards on duty on the high ground saw a fire rising in the night in a certain place in the distance, his expression changed greatly, and he turned his head and shouted: "A beacon signal appears thirty miles away, and confirm the beacon signal." ”

"A beacon signal appeared thirty miles away, and the beacon signal was confirmed."

"A beacon signal appears thirty miles away, and the beacon signal is confirmed ......"

So the sound was transmitted all the way, and in a blink of an eye, it was transmitted from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain.

A herald soldier entered the camp tent and woke up Shi Wengong, who was resting, and said: "General, thirty miles away, south of the pass of Wang Hall 1, a beacon signal has appeared, and the beacon signal has been confirmed. Please instruct! ”

Shi Wengong urgently raised the account, summoned the generals to begin to command the march, many details and orders were conveyed, and after the assembly was completed, Shi Wengong got up and shouted when he came out of the tent: "Abandon the baggage, abandon the vehicle and tent, there is no need to save horsepower, march with all your might, the order that the general will receive is, from now on, within sixteen hours of Gaotang, all those who come out of the battle this time will be beheaded!" ”

"Well, the equipment of our Yongle Army is very valuable, and if it is abandoned and picked up by a cat and a dog, the loss will be too great!" One of Shi Wengong's personal soldiers muttered.

Shi Wengong kicked him away and said: "Causing the loss of military funds, this is the problem that the Great Demon King is worried about and not me, as the commander of this march, my responsibility is to abandon all objective conditions and complete the marching order!" ”

……

After Pei Yancheng arrived, he was half reassured, so now it is the first time in three days that Gao Fangping has left the city, and in the thatched hall, he sat down and began to tell Pei Yancheng about the current situation and inform each other of information.

Gao Fangping has always disliked nonsense, but this time the helplessness is that Pei Yancheng is the supervisor appointed by Lao Liang. As a prisoner, of course, he has the right to know all the inside information, as well as all of Gao Fangping's thoughts.

Fortunately, Pei Yancheng is not a dumb official, he is a person who really works at the grassroots level and grasps the hearts of the people, of course he knows what may happen now that winter is approaching, once a large number of fugitives gather, under the instigation of people with intentions.

Frowning for a long time, Pei Yancheng snorted coldly and said: "I heard about some of your Gao Fangping's policies in Daming County, and then I knew that you madmen were playing with fire, and the imperial court forbade the gathering of fugitives, and demanded that the fugitives should not be indulged, and there was a reason." There is also a reason for the introduction of a national law. These are all good things that you pork flat does. ”

"Please come, it's to help with things, not to ask you to give me the popular science law, okay, I didn't let him follow suit, so I can be blamed for this?" Gao Fangping said in amazement.

Pei Yancheng angrily pointed at Gao Fangping's nose and said, "Stupid thing, do you know what a precedent is?" I know what it means to 'take the lead', at that time in Daming County, the official had already commented in private, your pork Ping's success may not be copied, you have the ability to walk the single-plank bridge, it doesn't mean that others also have it, Chang Gong of Mengzhou, Zonggong of Jingzhao Mansion imitated you, and it was done, it doesn't mean that there are no hidden dangers, if there are people in Gaotang who have been damaged in a large area because of this, you Gao Fangping will not be able to escape the blame! ”

Gao Fangping couldn't help but blush slightly from being scolded, and said, "Aren't I trying my best to make amends!" And this is not necessarily the sin of my Gao Fangping model, it is some people with good intentions who are treasonous! For example, if a kitchen knife can kill someone, but if someone is hacked to death by a kitchen knife, the murderer will erase humanity and not arrest the blacksmith who forged the kitchen knife! ”

"You're sophistry." Pei Yancheng sneered: "This official will really catch the black blacksmith who forged the kitchen knife for this!" Do you think there are few craftsmen who have been arrested for this in Daimyo Prefecture? Without the existence of these black blacksmiths, the cast iron was controlled by the government in accordance with national law, and all the production of murder weapons was recorded, so that such incidents could be greatly reduced and controlled. ”

"But it's useless for you to say so much. Under strict control, there are still such incidents in an endless stream, which proves that the policy of controlling iron casting itself is flawed, limited to deep-seated reasons such as land annexation, and the demand for labor and production tools in our Great Song Dynasty far exceeds the ability of the government to monitor it. If you don't understand, I'll teach you a word, which is called the fault tolerance rate of society itself. Gao Fangping said.

Pei Yancheng was also frightened by him, and then said: "It's a good thing to say, don't think that this official doesn't know what your Xiao Gao has in mind, you always emphasize that the sin is in the 'hand' holding the knife, which is clearly infinitely magnifying this problem, leaning on the Chai family, I heard that they have a grudge against your Gao family?" ”

"There is a grudge, but they should be these thieves, do they have a grudge against me Gao Fangping, what's the matter?" Gao Fangping said in amazement.

"You little rascal don't come to this set, ordinary people will be fooled by you, but I Pei Yancheng won't. There is no evidence of the Chai family's sins, just your Gao Fangping's personal inference. This is not only the action of the North 1 Beijing Left-behind Division, but this official, as a supervising army, will not be used as a gun by you, and will not allow you to do anything wrong just for the inference of chasing the wind and catching shadows, the Chai family is not an ordinary family, you give this official some peace on this issue. Pei Yancheng pointed to his nose again.

The second time he pointed at his nose and scolded him like a little child, Gao Fangping squinted his eyes, a bit like he was beating someone.

Liang Hongying knew his temper best, and knew that he was going to make a move at a glance, so he hurriedly pulled him up and went out to breathe. What makes Liang Hongying most depressed is here, this kid is an out-and-out scumbag, but he is also the one who likes to say that he just lifts the table and beats people.

Pei Yancheng got up and left the cottage, and said before disappearing: "This official is in the city, let Gao Fangping rest, his eyes are red." ”

So Gao Fangping fell asleep, and this time he slept relatively peacefully.

Gao Fangping didn't sleep for three days, and this time he slept until dusk the next day, and still didn't wake up.

Entering the sunset, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and the sound of war drums and thunder came from the city gate, and Gao Fangping, who was asleep, woke up violently.

Liang Hongying has been guarding her side, and she has only just heard this drum beat, so she doesn't know what happened.

In an instant, a messenger from the county government came in and said with trembling calves: "Report to the county magistrate, the mob began to attack the city, Gao Tang was in a hurry, and the direction of the high mansion in the city also rose with fire, as well as the sound of shouting and killing, the situation was at a critical point, but there were still no reinforcements!" ”

Quickly put on the steel chain mail unique to the Yongle Army, and hurriedly went out under the escort of Liang Hongying, while walking, Gao Fangping muttered: "We have to rely on ourselves to withstand this wave, from the beacon signal to now it is only less than nine hours, the Yongle Army will not fly, and it will not be able to catch up for the time being!" ”

"Since something happened to the Gao family, Liang Hongying and you, it is best to rescue the Gao family first!" Liang Hongying actually didn't care much about the Gao family, but didn't want him to go to the city when he was besieging the city, which would be even more dangerous.

Gao Fangping shook his head with a blushing face and said, "The Gao family will not be able to die for a while, so there is no need to scruple." ”

When I came to the city to watch, there was a change in the so-called siege.

Indeed, nearly 3,000 displaced people have already gathered about 10 zhang outside the city.

But I don't know what happened, they were just watching and shouting slogans, shouting "Winter is coming, live", and there were only less than fifty people who really participated in the siege, and they were quite a group of people with martial arts foundation, accurate archery and quick action.

After Pei Yancheng ordered the people to beat the war drums, he began to point at the masters who were wandering under the city and scolded, and shouted vigorously: "Chaotic ministers and thieves, attacking the county town has become a fact, the crime is extremely unforgivable, shoot them to death, shoot them with arrows!" ”

Whoosh whoosh -

The bows and arrows of the county archers were not at all large-scale, and the quality of shooting was also worrying, and after wasting many arrows, they were useless to those who were skilled in the field of skill.

As soon as he saw the situation, Gao Fangping knew that this time Han Shizhong had made great contributions, and the underground work was very successful, and those homeless people were always hesitant to bear the name of rebellion, so these well-intentioned people lurking among the homeless people were anxious, and with the opportunity of the homeless people finally approaching the county seat in an all-round way, they began to attack with rhythm, set an example, and wanted to attract people to follow.

The homeless people are timid, and Han Shizhong's work is effective, and the homeless people themselves have no martial arts, so they may not really respond before seeing the big benefits.

But Gao Fangping felt that once the city gate was opened, something would really happen, the homeless people would really rush into the city, once they entered the city, they would be mobs, and once there was a confrontation with the people in the city, the fuse would be completely ignited.
