As soon as the sun went down, the sound of trumpets reminded the people that it was time to go home, the city gates were about to close, and the pedestrians on the road hurried back.

The cold wind is blowing, and the lights of thousands of homes are like stars, dotting the world. The guards on patrol, dressed in heavy black armor and armed with spears, walked in an orderly, organized and uniform manner. Under his feet, he stepped on the green bricks, and the rhythmic and loud sound of knocking on gold and stones came out, and he walked through the long street.

Hearing footsteps on the street, the lights of each house were blown out one by one, ready to go to bed. It was no more modern than it was a modern time, with a variety of nightlife entertainment, all done at sunrise and sunset. This is still at the border, even if you want to go out, and you are accidentally caught by the patrol guards, and you are directly regarded as a spy, then the crime is big, so it is better to wash and sleep early.

The soldiers of the city defense battalion also changed shifts to rest, and a general with a beard on his face walked over the city wall and shouted to the soldiers on the defense: "Brothers, cheer up, put your eyes on me, don't work on the belly of the girls during the day, just give me a nap, let me see, the whip is served, and now the general will go to inspect other places." ”

"Hmph, I'm going to inspect other places, phew, that's a nice thing to say, it's not like I'm going to find a place to drink." When the soldier heard the general's words, he muttered, who doesn't know that this general was transferred through the back door, this person likes to whip people at every turn, and loves to drink, and every time he comes back in the morning, he is full of alcohol.

After seeing that the general was gone, the soldiers put down their weapons and gathered in a pile in front of the torches to warm themselves.

A young soldier rubbed his hands and said angrily: "On such a cold day, let us stand on the wall and blow the cold wind, he may not know where to find a place to be happy." ”

"Okay, Chen Gouzi don't say it, if it accidentally reaches his ears, you will suffer from whipping again."

It turned out that the soldier who had just spoken was called Chen Gouzi, and the barracks saw him as young, honest and practical, and they all liked to chat with him, so his popularity was very good, and many people were willing to defend him. Most of the soldiers in this barracks are veterans, and few young people are willing to eat this mouthful.

Chen Gouzi didn't mention this anymore, looked at the person next to him, and said, "Hey! Lao Liu, I went down the city wall this morning, I saw you go to Widow Wang's house in the west of the city, when did you two fight together? What does it taste like? ”

The soldiers next to him heard it and said, "Yes! Tell us about it, this widow Wang used to be a famous beauty in the west of the city, and the taste must be different. ”

Seeing that everyone was surrounding him, Lao Liu smiled lewdly, as if he was nostalgic for that taste, and said: "Of course, it is different from others, this beauty is a beauty, I will tell you ・・・・・." Just as he was about to get to the point, everyone saw that he stopped and froze.

Chen Gouzi patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "Lao Liu, don't be in a daze!" Brothers, I'm still waiting for you to say that, and when you look at this, you know that you're missing it again! You can't work hard anymore at dawn. ”

"Hahahaha." Everyone listened to Chen Gouzi's words and thought that this old Liu was really thinking about his.

Lao Liu knocked off the hand on his shoulder and wondered, "Did you hear any sound?" ”

"What sound? I don't think you want to talk about it at all. Chen Gouzi interrupted.

"No, you listen, it's like a knock from the sky." Lao Liu pointed to the night in the distance, his expression was cautious.

When everyone saw that he was not joking, they quieted down and listened attentively.

"It's not good, it's the sound of horses' hooves, it's coming in our direction, go and tell the general that someone is coming."

Seeing that the situation was serious, the soldiers ran out in a panic.

In the distance, at night, I saw rows of torches lit, and I rushed towards the city gate at a rapid speed, and the number of torches was no less than a thousand. Thinking that there were at least more than 10,000 people coming, Chen Gouzi's legs were already trembling, he had just done it for a few months, how could such a thing happen, he must have begged God to worship Buddha and forgot to light incense.

At the same time, in the south of the city, more than a dozen houses surrounded and whispered: "Calculate the time, now they are almost there!" How's our guy preparing? ”

"Don't worry! The personnel have all arrived, waiting for the Wuheng people to come. ”

"Alright, let's set our respective tasks now. When the two of you take 500 people to the city gate, when the Wuheng army is attacking the city, open the city gate and let them in. ”

"The two of you, take 500 people to guard the intersection in the south of the city, and if there are reinforcements, you must block it for a while." The man looked at the people who had no arrangements and said, "You go to the government with me, and we will meet this Taishou." The big hand slapped the table vigorously and said, "We will definitely succeed this time, haha." ”

They didn't know that there was a dark shadow flashing outside.

In the backyard of the city office, Li Zhen held the book in his hand, but his eyes were not aimed at the book, and he looked absent-minded, Li Zhen put down the book and said, "What time is it?" Have you all arrived? ”

A dark shadow walked out of the room, holding a double halberd, covered in armor all over his body, and only his eyes were exposed, which was Li Zhen's first bodyguard, Dian Wei.

Dian Wei said: "Childe, now it's almost time, our people have all been arranged in the city, and as soon as they move, our people can rush to it." ”

Li Zhen opened the door and looked at the night sky, this was his first battle in Dahan, and he felt uneasy in his heart. Blown down by the cold wind, Li Zhencai felt a lot calmer, closed them, and said, "How is the situation in the house?" ”

"It's still the same, their people have surrounded the hospital, but there is no movement, I don't know what to wait for?" Dian Wei had some doubts. This Kuancheng county order called soldiers to surround the compound at night, but there was no movement.

Li Zhen sneered: "What else can you wait for, wait for the arrival of Wuheng's people, take advantage of the chaos to attack in, and when the time comes, as soon as I die, I can push it on the Wuheng people, and they have nothing to do." ”

"These people are damn good, they're so vicious." Dian Wei gritted his teeth.

"Alas! Hearts and minds. ”

Bang bang bang, "Have you rested?" Can I come in? The man outside the door knocked on the door and shouted.

"The original Lord Liu, you haven't rested so late, please come in!" Li Zhen made Dian Wei hide.

"Haha, the adults are not resting, the lower officials see that the weather is cold, come and see what the adults need?" Someone came in and stood on the side.

This person Li Zhen also knows, is the county magistrate of Kuancheng, and has a resounding name called Liu Qing. Li Zhen listened to his introduction and squirted out the tea, merciful, merciful, merciful, and merciful, I don't know.

Liu Qing was embarrassed to explain at the time, it turned out that his father meant that he wanted his life to shine on the earth like the sun's rays, and there were sunny days every day, so Liu Qing was born.

"I've already caused you trouble when I live here, and now Lord Liu has come over in person, which really touches the official." Li Zhen responded enthusiastically.

"Your Excellency is gracious."

"If it's okay, Master Liu should go back and rest early! The official is sleepy, and now he has to rest. Li Zhen yawned, as if he was tired.

Liu Qing laughed and said, "Then don't bother adults." "Think, sleep! I'm afraid that you will never wake up from this sleep.

Before Liu Qing left, she heard another knock on the door, this time more urgently and louder.

Li Zhen shouted: "It's not annoying, and I don't let people rest." ”

"My lord, I am looking for Lord Liu, and now there are a lot of Wuheng cavalry outside the city, and they are attacking the south city gate."

Li Zhen thought: Are all the snakes out of the hole? It seems that he has to delay the meeting and start playing, his face is pale on the spot, and he is sweating with relish.

Liu Qing shouted anxiously: "My lord, what should I do?" Seeing Li Zhen's face pale, he thought: What a cowardly person, when he heard Wu Heng, he was scared like this, and when he killed him, would he kneel and beg for mercy. Seeing that Li Zhen was in a daze, he pushed down with his hand and said, "My lord, what should I do now?" ”

"Ahh Oh, oh, now, now hurry up and prepare the horses. Li Zhen returned to Shinto.

"My lord is really a role model for my generation, this is to go to the front line in person! I gave up my life to accompany the adults to go back, come and prepare horses. "Liu Qing said it well, but he was actually afraid that Li Zhen would run away, and all the preparations he had made these days would be in vain, so he had to follow Li Zhen.

Li Zhen turned around and didn't understand: "When did I say that I was going to the city gate." “

"Didn't Tsuna-sama just say to prepare horses?"

Li Zhen rolled his eyes and said: "I asked you to prepare a horse, I am preparing to escape, I will leave first, Lord Liu will stay here, do a good job of defense, and then I will ask Your Majesty for credit for you." With that, he walked towards the door.

Liu Qing listened to Li Zhen's explanation, she couldn't cry or laugh, how could this person be embarrassed to say such a thing, but seeing that Li Zhen was leaving, she thought that it was not time for anyone to do it now, so she quickly knelt down and hugged Li Zhen's thigh, crying: "My lord! You can't go! You're gone. How do the people of our county live! Please, save them! ”

Li Zhen flung his thigh impatiently, kicked Liu Qing's chest with his foot, and shouted: "What's the use of me staying, it's not for nothing, let go, I'm going to leave now, it's too late to be late." ”

Liu Qing crawled over, and just wanted to speak, when he heard a burst of shouts of "kill" coming from outside the house.
