At this time, a horse galloped outside the city, from the torch that was played, a worn fat jacket, it can be seen that this is a border soldier, he stopped anxiously, and the defenders on the city gate communicated slightly, and then the heavy city gate of Datong Town opened in a piercing sound, the soldier on horseback clamped the horse's belly hard, and the war horse under the crotch neighed, and galloped towards the city.

Behind the towering city wall of Datong Town, a light is still on in an attic, only to see the lights flowing everywhere in the house, as if someone is constantly going in and out, the knight rushed to the place where the light is, just arrived at the gate of this house, the servant at the door, has come quickly to hold the horse, but the knight is because of the long-term horse, both legs have been numb, tried a few times, but can not get down. A few sturdy servants beside him hurriedly took hands and helped the soldier to get off the horse, and walked towards the courtyard.

"Lord Qiyu, someone from Xuanhua Town is here!" Outside the attic, a housekeeper whispered at the door.

"Oh, there's news? Hurry up! A deep male voice rang out in the room.

"Yes," the man hurriedly retreated, came to the gate of the courtyard and waved his hand, only to see that the soldier was taken to the door of the attic by several servants.

"My lord, the man brought it, and this time the letter was written." The housekeeper said respectfully, staggered a gap in the doorway, and carefully passed the knight's letter through the gap.

There was a sound of paper being opened in the room, apparently the man was reading a letter, and a moment later there was a flash of fire in the room, and it could be seen from the window that the man in the room was throwing a fire into the ground.

"Bring that soldier in, and the rest of us will retreat." The man in the room thought for a moment, then suddenly said.

The housekeeper at the door hurriedly waved his hand and retreated with the servants. The knight had recovered at this moment, and glanced at the closed door, but he did not expect that the door had been opened, revealing the situation in the room, and the knight bowed his head in some trepidation.

"What was the situation in the Xuanfu when you came?" The man in the house came out of the room, looked at the man, and asked in a deep voice.

The knight bowed his head and replied, "My lord, when I came down, the city was already in chaos, the whole city was already in turmoil, the people of the whole city had already set fire to the houses in the city, and the troops stationed everywhere were watching, and no one came out to suppress the bandits. ”

The man lingered a few steps around the doorway, seemed to understand, and turned back and asked, "Oh, the others didn't move?" Hehe, these old fritters, this is because they see that the future is unknown, and they don't want to wade into this troubled water, but this Lu Inspector just watched the chaos in the city and didn't give any orders? ”

Although this man spoke softly, the knight still felt a little pressure, and he lowered his head and replied, "The governor's yamen has issued a city ban from the beginning, and the people in the city are not allowed to go out, and the garrisons in the city are all on guard on the spot without the order of the governor. ”

"If this is the case, there is such chaos in this city, and the reason will be found, hehe, the people over there, but it is amazing, they can actually lure and divide the descendants of the governor, and the means are really clever." The man breathed a sigh of relief and turned and walked towards the house.

"Stand down, go to the chief to get some money, and go back and rest," said the man in the room to the knight as the door was gently shut.

"Lord Xie, Lord Xie!" The knight retreated happily, and the man in the room sat back on the bench, but if the knight saw this man's appearance, he would definitely be a little dumbfounded, because no matter how he heard it, he thought that he was an elegant and gentleman's "lord", but at this moment he was a rude military man with a vicissitudes of life.

"Interesting, interesting, it seems that this Xuanda is going to change the sky, but I don't know if it's the Governor who is powerful, or those guys who smell copper." The man sitting on the stool stroked the beard on his chin and laughed lowly.

At the same time, Datong town to the south in the south, there is a more majestic city than Datong, the night has fallen silent at this time, a flying horse in this dim night, is galloping, if someone sees, there will be some surprise, there is a very urgent military situation ahead, you know, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are mostly night blind, a night can not see, dare to gallop at night, all are physique, excellent horseman, at this moment the knight on the horse, is lying down, the whip in his hand, is whipping the horse under him as fast as a whip.

The majestic city in the distance was already visible, and as it got closer and closer, even the light of the huge brazier on the head of the city could be seen clearly. Even the voice of the city officer scolding the soldiers, he could hear it clearly, the knight on the horse let out a long breath, and saw that he had reached the city gate, but there was no need to be so anxious to hurry, thinking of this, the man loosened the reins of the horse, and let the crotch, the horse that had already run and foamed at the mouth rest.

But at this moment, the horse, which had slowed down, slammed down, and then the knight fell headlong ahead. It fell to the ground with a thud, and there was no breath left without a scream.

And in this Taiyuan Mansion, in a huge mansion, there is also a lamp still on, and the spacious gate is still brightly lit, and several servants are sitting at the door, as if waiting for someone, and they look up in the direction of the city gate from time to time.

Xuanhua Town Governor's Mansion, Lu Xiangsheng at this time looked at the piece of paper in front of him, his face was pale. Even Yang Quan's face on the side changed drastically, which couldn't help but surprise them, because this translation should be the people over there, the tasks to be carried out, and there are also some of their connections behind them. But the more he knew, the more surprised Yang Quan became, the more surprised he became, today's Jin merchants are no longer so simple to transport goods to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but among the things transported this time, there is information about the border towns!!

In this way, this is no longer an ordinary capital enemy. Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help sighing, "I have never treated these businessmen badly, but I didn't think that today my Ming Dynasty would be betrayed by these businessmen." If nothing else, the first few Qing army detained the customs, these profit-seekers, I'm afraid they have something to do with them!! ”

Yang Quan didn't care about this, "My lord, what are we doing now?" If you don't come up with a charter, I'm afraid the city will be in chaos. ”

Lu Xiangsheng listened to Yang Quan's words, stood up straight, his eyes became firm, he looked at Yang Quan, "Yang Quan, I promise you to mobilize my personal guard battalion to quickly quell the riots in the city, anyone who violates the law and discipline on the street and lays down his arms will be encircled on the spot, and those who resist will be killed!" ”
