The man riding a fast horse quickly came to Zu Di's side, a handsome turned over and got off the horse, and then reported to Zu Di: "My lord, there are a large number of thieves near Chengguan City, the number is about 1,000 people, and I see a flag not far away, the flag seems to be a word, according to the dust raised in the sky, the number of people may be tens of thousands, this group of people and horses is still some distance away from the thieves, and they are also rushing to Chengguan City, please show me how to deal with it!"

Zu Di patted the clothes of the person who came, and said softly: "Wang An, you have worked hard, go and rest first, and leave the matter of the thief to me."

Wang An nodded, and retreated into the crowd, and went to the quartermaster to ask for something to eat and drink, he had not eaten anything for a day since he was patrolling outside Chengguan Town as a scout, and now he was indeed very hungry.

After Zu Di saw Wang An leaving, he turned to everyone and said, "How could a large number of thieves suddenly appear? The thieves still have a force of tens of thousands of people? ”

After hearing this, Yin Yi said regardless of it: "Ge Laozidi, what are you afraid of, who are we afraid of?" There are only more than 1,000 thieves, and 300 of us can destroy them, not to mention that we still have more than 1,500 soldiers in our hands, let me take the lead! ”

After Dong Zhao heard Yin Yi's words, he snorted coldly and said coldly: "What do you know?" The 1,000 thieves are naturally not a problem, the key is that the 10,000 horses behind the 1,000 thieves are difficult to say whether they are friends or foes......."

Yin Yi was also sensed that something was wrong when Dong Zhao said this, frowned deeply, walked back and forth, suddenly laughed, and said loudly: "I know, those 10,000 people must have come to strangle those thieves!" Hahaha! ”

Han Qian was because he and Yin Yi were standing together, and the meaningful eyes of others always drifted towards him, intentionally or unintentionally...... So Han Qian subconsciously moved to the side, so that he could stay away from Yin Yi......

Zu Di said to Xu Xian: "I don't know how many soldiers the Xu clan has, can I be in one place with my Zu's Wu Wu army, so that the strength will be greater."

Xu Yan also felt that something was wrong, where did the thief come from? How did you come to besiege the city? And there is an army of tens of thousands of people behind the thieves, what is the reason? It seems that the tens of thousands of people don't know the situation in Chengguan Town, so let some people disguise themselves as thieves first, if Chengguan City has no defense, then let the disguised thieves directly attack, if the defense force of Chengguan City is very large, then pretend to be here to strangle the thieves, and then depending on the situation, whether to loot or not, so vicious and despicable people......

Thinking of this, Xu Yan said solemnly: "The Xu clan has 1,200 clan soldiers, all sent by adults!" ”

Zu Di took a deep look at Xu Xian, then shook Xu Xian's hand vigorously and nodded.

Zu Di beckoned, and everyone in the Zu clan surrounded them, and discussed with Xu Xian together, the matter of arming requires the cooperation of all parties, and now that the Xu clan soldiers have joined, Xu Huan's cooperation must be dispatched.

Outside the city

The thieves have completed the preparations for the attack on Chengguan City, in their opinion, how much defense can this small village and town have? There were no officers and soldiers (Jin army) on the low, dilapidated city walls, and from the outside in, there were not many people, and most importantly, the city gates were wide open......

The thieves looked at each other, the leader of the leader took the lead in stepping into the city gate with a part of the people, the people in the city saw these thieves with swords in their hands, they were so frightened that they hugged their heads and scurried, some screamed loudly, some panicked, these people's panic and confusion in the leader of the thieves seemed that everything was normal, there was nothing suspicious, and the leader also relaxed his vigilance, and said in his heart: It seems that his lord is indeed worried......

Just as the thousand thieves began to enter the city one after another, the formation became chaotic......

Whoosh!

A large number of archers suddenly stood on the ruined city wall, and bursts of arrows rained down on the thieves.

The sound of arrows was also heard in the city, and two groups of men and horses slaughtered the city gate from different parts of the city.

Seeing the sniping of archers on the city wall, and the ambush soldiers rushing towards the city, the thieves fled to the city gate regardless of it, but the city gate was so narrow, how could it be possible to pass through so many people at once?

The archers on the city wall were shooting at the thieves inside and outside the city, and the corpses of the fallen thieves also hindered the retreat of the thieves......

After a while, only two or three out of ten thieves escaped from Ascension, and quickly fled to the place where the banner of He Zi was not far away......

On the city wall, Zu Di and the others were observing the direction of the thieves' escape, and when they saw that the thieves were all running away to the banner not far away, their hearts became heavy......

At this time, five people came to the city.

Zugai and Zuna, one carrying a chessboard and the other holding a cushion and a chess box, rushed to the city wall excitedly.

Wang An was on guard with a knife beside the two, and his expression was very serious.

Xu also came to the city wall with Xiao Xu Yuan in his arms, and the two of them looked like mothers and daughters, which made Zu Di and Xu Yan on the city wall stunned for a moment.

When they learned that Xu Yuan had taken the initiative to recognize Xu as their stepmother, the two looked at each other in surprise and didn't react for a long time......

Suddenly, Xu Xianhe smirked, his little daughter has been different from ordinary people since she was a child, she can speak, walk, and the words she has taught and the classics of all religions are almost unforgettable, which is incredible. Now he actually made his own claim to recognize a stepmother, which really made Xu Yan cry and laugh, but the heart of his daughter made Xu Xian, who paid attention to the Confucian tradition, not a trace of dissatisfaction at all, but the corners of his eyes were a little sour, poor child, his beloved wife gave birth to her not long ago, and she died, and now the ancestral Xu family loves his daughter so much, and Zu Di is a well-known hero, such a god-in-law, Xu Xun is willing!

Zu Di was also infected by his wife's tenderness at this moment, looked at his wife, and looked at Xu Xian and had no objection, and his two sons seemed to like this little girl's appearance very much, Zu Di's heart was also full of joy, and his eyes were also full of tenderness when he looked at his wife.

Xu Shi saw that his husband did not object, but seemed to like this little girl very much, not to mention how sweet it was in his heart, he refused to let go while holding Xiao Xu Yuan, and the mother and mother also seemed to have endless words.

At this moment, everyone seemed to have forgotten that there were more than 10,000 people outside the city who didn't know whether they were friends or foes were slowly approaching Chengguan City......

And the big banner of He Zi fluttered in the wind, stopped less than a kilometer away from the city, did not surround the city, did not send messengers, but quickly stationed outside the city.

For a while, the atmosphere inside and outside the entire Chengguan City became very depressing......
