Chapter 696: Qi River
Since Yangyi left with the troops, Gongsun Du ordered Xiangping to close the four gates, and the people were not allowed to enter and exit, not that he didn't believe that Gongsun Kang couldn't capture Xinchang City, but now it's a time of war, Yangyi took away half of the Xiangping army, be careful, with Xiangping and other strong cities, the troops in the city are enough to defend, even if there is an accident, don't want to attack and capture, of course, the accident in his eyes is by no means Liu Lan, but the alien race active around Liaodong, now the situation is turbulent, the alien race is about to move, he has to guard against it.
Captain Qi He came to Nancheng Tower early in the morning to inspect, and the soldiers stuck to their posts without slackening at all, which made him very satisfied, and after ordering him to be careful, he planned to go to other gates to inspect.
Qi He's face was gloomy, and he had to inspect the four gates every morning, noon and evening, which made him happy, but Gongsun Du gave an order, he had no choice, after turning around to avoid the gaze of the soldiers, his face became listless again, I don't know how long I have to stay up like this, I'm really fucking tired, hurry up and break through Xinchang City, so that he can live a comfortable and moist life again.
As soon as he thought of the beauty and wine, Qi He's eyes, which were like a defeated rooster drooping his head, shot out of his eyes, and his legs, which were filled with lead, were much lighter, and he strode down the city tower with his head held high.
But just when he walked to the middle of the stairs, he suddenly sounded the alarm bell from above the city tower, Qi He's heart jumped, and the footsteps raised were even more suspended in the air in an instant, and without waiting for the soldiers behind him to ask, Sima who was in charge of the garrison of the city tower had already shouted and ran over as the bell rang...... Captain Qi, there is a military situation! Emergency military intelligence! ”
The corners of his eyebrows twitched. This is not a good premonition, Qi He turned around with a solemn face. The moment he turned around, he frowned slightly, not only cleverly concealing the fear in his heart. He pretended to be calm and calm, and said unhappily: "What a fuss, say, what's going on?" ”
"Yes...... It's ......" The little army Sima who came over was anxious and stammered, and said a lot, but Qi He didn't hear a word clearly, his face turned blue, and after scolding something that was not there, he brushed his sleeves and left. Once again climbed the city tower, but when he ascended the tower, the situation in the distance surprised him, but at the same time it reassured him a lot, although there was a vast army in front of him, but the scale was only more than 10,000 people, now Xiangping four gates are closed, the drawbridge is pulled up, how can these people break through the city?
That's why. When he saw the panicked reaction of the defenders of the city tower, he didn't get angry: "What are you panicking, just this point of people scares you into something, useless things." As he spoke, he glared angrily at the military Sima who had caught up: "Let your people return to their positions and be careful." ”
After speaking, Qi He came to the front of the city tower. Looking at the troops getting closer and closer in the distance, I said to myself, where did these people come from?
In an instant, the military flag waving in the wind is in full view. The moment he saw the flag, Qi He smiled. And all the officers and soldiers defending the city also let out a long breath at this moment, it turned out to be their own family.
Compared to the soldiers who are relieved. Qi He's face changed several times, and in the end, his face showed a little hideous, very cold, and said coldly to the guards around him, "Order the remaining three gates, no one is allowed to enter the city without my order, and those who violate the order will be killed!" ”
"No!"
Qi He's voice was very loud, and the officers and soldiers guarding the city around him heard it, but the most calm Captain Qi now seemed very 'nervous', could it be that these people were enemy soldiers who came to defraud the city in disguise?
In an instant, the smiles on the faces of the soldiers disappeared, but the military Sima didn't think so, if it was really the enemy army who was cheating the city, then Captain Qi would never dare not send someone to report to the county guard and show the military situation, on the contrary, he sent his own soldiers to inform the other three gates that no one was allowed to enter the city without his order, which is interesting, as for what the reason, can he still count in his heart, just relax immediately and wait to watch the show.
The army outside the city is getting closer and closer, and the defenders can already hear the shouting and scolding of the troops outside the city, some urging them to open the city gate quickly so that the grandfathers can enter the city, and some of them open their mouths to scold that their mother's sons are fighting desperately outside, but these grandsons are enjoying Qingfu in the city, but no matter how they scold below, the Xiangping city gate has never been opened, and the scolding is getting more and more ugly, but Qi He ignored it all, and waited for the moment when the troops outside the city entered the firing range, he finally spoke, cheered loudly, and said: "The troops under the city have listened to me well, If you dare to take another step forward, you will not blame me for being rude. After Qi He finished speaking, he ordered the defenders to bend their bows and arrows, and only waited for him to give the order to shoot at the incoming army.
The Xiangping army under the city didn't take Qihe's warning seriously at all, and continued to walk, but suddenly they saw the defenders of the city tower brushing their bows and arrows at them, and the Xiangping army under the city scolded even more fiercely, but no matter how fierce the scolding was, no one dared to move forward again.
Xu Huang stopped the advancing troops and looked at Jin Guang, at this time it was time for him to come forward, but he didn't want the latter to frown, and said: "Captain Xu, this person won't hide it from you, he has some festivals with me, but I'm afraid that the plan arranged by Sima will be useless." ”
"What?" Xu Huang exclaimed, this is really difficult, and said angrily: "Why didn't you say this earlier, what can you do now?" ”
Jin Guang sighed and said: "This thing is really unexpected, this person's name is Qi He, originally paid downstream of the front gate of Xiangping Lingfu, but after the county monarch was whipped to death by Gongsun Du, he didn't want this person to be entrusted with a heavy responsibility by Gongsun Du, and took on the responsibility of guarding the city, it was my negligence, it was my negligence!" ”
"I see." Xu Huang, who learned the whole story, softened his face and said, "It's all here, so I can only bite the bullet, otherwise I won't be found out by this guy?" ”
Jin Guang's tone was very helpless, spread his hands, and said: "Yes, I can only improvise, I hope to open the city gate." After speaking, Jin Guang calmed down, let out a sigh of relief, jumped forward, and shouted towards the city tower: "Is it Qi You who is upstairs?" ”
"It turned out to be Captain Kim." Qi He said with a smile, but suddenly raised his voice, and said solemnly: "Captain Jin, I forgot to tell you that I am not a subordinate now, just like you, I have also become a captain, a captain of the city gate!" ”
The villain's appearance made Jin Guang grit his teeth with hatred, the bullshit city gate captain really used chicken feathers as an arrow, this Xiangping city gate captain is just a vacancy under the county captain, and the commander's soldiers are just some unpopular county soldiers, how can he be compared with a real power captain like him in terms of position, there is a big difference, unless it is the city gate captain of the capital Luoyang, and the city gate captain like Qi He, he doesn't even look at his face on weekdays, but the current situation is different, although this villain's position is low, but after all, he has climbed to Gongsun Du, On the surface, he has to be polite, not to mention that he has now joined Liu Lan, in order to open the city gate fraudulently, he can only hold back the anger in his heart first, and said: "Captain Qi, I am ordered by Yang Changshi to escort the captives back to Xiangping to report to the county guard, and quickly open the city gate!"
