"Haha, haha," Feeling the hesitation of the entourage, Li Hongji laughed a few times arrogantly before asking: "Tiger, we have traveled all the way, how many waves of chaotic people did we encounter just now?" ”

"What wave? This could be, probably ......"

Pulling his fingers and counting a few times, Li Guo suddenly slapped his thigh, and shouted a little irritably: "Uncle, we came all the way and encountered countless troubled people. These weak chicken-like rioters, they run away as soon as they catch up, and they are chaotic when they are rushed, and it is easier to kill them than to kill a rabbit. Who can remember, how many waves this special encountered? ”

With Li Guo's impatient words, the faces of Li Hongji and his party all calmed down.

Based on the fighting power of the rebels they encountered, they really didn't seem to have anything to worry about.

Seeing that everyone's minds had stabilized, Li Hongji scolded Li Guo: "Tiger, can't you grow your brains?" You make a few shots and you don't have a point? You've only made nine shots along the way. You can't even remember less than 10 times in total? ”

After scolding Li Guo, ignoring him with a big red face, Li Hongji turned his head and smiled at the others: "There is still a road of about 10 miles from the county seat of Chengxian County at most. Looking at the chaotic posture of these chaotic people, I think that even if a few of them can ride horses, they will not necessarily come out of the city to find us. As long as we pay more attention, maintain good horsepower, and don't be dumplings made by the chaotic people, no one can keep us. Guys say, huh? ”

Without waiting for Liu Fangliang to answer, Li Hongji continued: "This is the nearest official road to the county seat of Chengxian County. Everyone probably noticed that we didn't see any trace of Han Gang and their team along the way. It seems that they have not taken this recent path.

As long as we rush to the outside of Chengxian County and see the situation in Chengxian County, then we will definitely be able to rush back to the caravan before them......"

Speaking of this, Li Hongji stopped talking and did not continue.

In fact, he doesn't need to say that everyone knows what he means.

"What the eldest brother said is that we still have a lot of bows and arrows, as long as we are careful, we will not have the ability to leave us behind. Big brother, I'll go with you to see the county seat of Chengxian County. Stretching out the bow and arrow on the horse's back, Liu Fangliang's tone was very calm.

"I would like to go with Captain Li!"

Without waiting for Li Guo to speak again, the other people looked at each other, although the movements were a little uneven, but the general face was quite consistent Xiang Li Hongji at the same time hugged his fist and responded.

Seeing that everyone was willing to go, Li Hongji was overjoyed, and he immediately made arrangements without hesitation: "Since everyone is willing to go to see the county seat of Chengxian County, let's leave immediately after resting for a quarter of an hour." Tiger, you and Fang Liang will open the way in a moment. You must pay attention to the road conditions along the way and don't rush too hard. The others followed with me, so let's pay more attention to the surroundings and the back road. With this arrangement, everyone is fine, right? ”

"No problem."

Seeing that Li Hongji arranged his closest two people to the front to open the way, the others had other objections.

After resting for a while, feeding the horses and drinking water, Li Hongji and his party got on their horses again, beat the horses and went straight to the county seat of Chengxian County.

The county seat of Cheng County

This, what's going on?

Li Hongji and his party, who were cautious all the way, when they saw the Chengxian City Gate, they all reined in their war horses, and they were so shocked that they looked around.

The Chengxian County displayed in front of them was a little too abnormal, so that Li Hongji had to look at the county seat of Chengxian from a distance, carefully, and carefully.

The city wall of Chengxian County is not high, and the city wall made of rammed earth is only more than one zhang high. On the tattered city tower, a large flag with the word 'Ming' that is also tattered hangs listlessly on the flagpole. In the city gate hole under the castle tower, the city gate is not only wide open, but faintly, even the city gate on one side seems to have gone somewhere.

There were no guards guarding the gates, and there were no people in and out, and even the city seemed to be empty.

What's going on here?

Looking at Chengxian in front of him, which was completely different from what he was thinking, Li Hongji fell into thought.

The city walls of Chengxian County are low and there is no moat, which is not surprising to Li Hongji.

Cheng County is not like Mizhi and Suide, which are along the border. In the hundreds of years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the Mongolian tribes of the steppe faced by Yulin Town, even when the soldiers were at their sharpest, they could not cross Suide.

Behind Suide, even the rest of Yan'an Mansion is rarely harassed, not to mention the Xi'an Mansion inside.

In the past hundreds of years, who has not heard of soldiers and not been warned, who will repair the city defense?

The dilapidated city defense is normal, but the city gate is wide open, and the city head is not only not densely populated with chaotic people as Li Hongji thought, but even a single figure cannot be seen, which makes it a little incomprehensible.

What to do? Is it going in or out?

Looking at the silent Chengxian County and the wide open city gate, Li Hongji was a little difficult to decide for a while.

Is this going back?

Seeing such a scene in Chengxian County, let him turn back like this, but Li Hongji was absolutely unwilling in his heart.

Town?

But the strange scene in Cheng County made Li Hongji dare not make a decision.

There was no moat, and the gates were badly damaged. In any case, the road in and out is relatively smooth.

After carefully looking at the Chengxian City Gate, Li Hongji gradually made up his mind in his heart.

"Well, who wants to go into the city with me?"

Hearing Li Hongji's question, looking at the somewhat weird county seat of Chengxian County, the group and even the tiger Li Guo fell silent.

The Cheng County riots, the guards who can voluntarily and dare to voluntarily sign up to come out to investigate, are all brave people who are skilled in bows and horses. Along the way, the chaotic people who came into contact along the way also let everyone know a little about the combat power of the chaotic people.

Just like Li Hongji said, the combat power of the rebels is indeed too poor, and it seems that they are not as strong as those mountain bandits and grass bandits. They are a group of people, with horses under their crotches and bows and arrows in their hands, and with the combat power of the chaotic people, they really don't need to worry about anything.

Li Hongji just said that he rushed to Chengxian County to take a look. This is not to attack the county seat of Chengxian County, why don't they come?

It is definitely a good credit to go to the county seat of Chengxian County to see the situation and then return to the caravan. And it can also press the other team of Han Gang, who is coaxing the cow, and everyone is even more happy in their hearts.

But if you want to enter Cheng County, it will be completely different.

Don't look at the opening of the Chengxian gate, there is no moat, and there seems to be no one to guard. But once everyone enters the city, as long as a wave of rioters blocks the city gate, the lives of everyone will be in danger.

Everyone dares to go straight to Chengxian County, doesn't it rely on the mobility of the war horse under the crotch, if you want to fight, you can leave?

If you really want people to block the city and can't rush out, even if everyone can fight again, how many chaotic people can they fight with seven or eight people?

Entering the city is a matter of everyone's life, who dares to take it lightly?

"Haha, haha," looking at the silent crowd, Li Hongji suddenly laughed loudly: "Don't worry, you just need you to help me take care of the city gate." In that city, a man can go there! ”
