Nearly 10,000 officers and soldiers poured into the city, filling every corner of Dongping Mansion and filling the whole city with panic and anxiety. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Fortunately last night, except for a few military and civilian disputes, it was generally quite stable, but early in the morning of the second day, panicked people gathered outside the yamen, and the gentry in the city had already accumulated a thick stack of public cases in the prefect's mansion.

In such a situation, the atmosphere in the government council hall can be imagined.

Cheng Zhifu looked around at everyone in the hall, and saw that all the generals were full of blood, and their faces were sinking like water, and the expectation in his heart was a little less, and he only felt that he had a bad almond in his mouth, which was extremely bitter, and he couldn't spit it out.

But since all the senior officers were convened to discuss the matter, they couldn't just be relatively silent all the time, so Cheng Zhifu had to ask knowingly: "Generals, does the red turban thief really have the ability to capture the city?" ”

When he said this, Cheng Zhifu couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, early yesterday morning, he was still thinking about how to share the benefits after breaking Zhujiazhuang, who would have thought that only one day later, this offensive and defensive momentum would come to the opposite tune?

Generals, you look at me, I look at you, and finally their eyes fell on Zhang Qing.

Although Zhang Qing was reluctant to come forward, he saw that the prefect of Cheng was also looking at him with hope, so he had to stand up and arch his hand: "Lord Qiqi Prefect, the last general carefully figured out the information of Nawu Dalang last night, and found that we were really too light on the enemy before!" ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but smile bitterly - the truth that arrogant soldiers must be defeated, basically every military general knows, but when it comes to his own head, how many people can be cautious at all times?

If nothing else, let's just say that what Wu Kai has done in the past few months, not to mention that everyone knows it in Dongping Mansion, at least it sounds effortless, but up to the Cheng Governor's Mansion and down to the generals in the army, how can anyone ever take the heart to understand this information?

Even if I occasionally hear such a few words, I think it is an exaggeration, and I secretly make a lot of folds in my heart.

Therefore, until yesterday, when the army set out in a mighty way, Sun Dujian, Zhang Qing and others also regarded the Red Turban Army as a group of powerful and powerful bandits who were not weak, and felt that even if they could resist one or two under the hands of the official army, they would inevitably end up in ashes.

However, yesterday's two rounds of salvo fire completely tore the pride of these nearly 10,000 'heavenly soldiers', and Zhang Qing couldn't help but re-examine the strength of the Red Turban Army.

And this re-investigation, more shocking details were shown in front of Zhang Qing one by one.

"Lord Prefect."

I only heard Zhang Qing say with a sad face: "The equipment used by the Wuda is very exquisite, and at that time, it only needs to be placed under the city, and there will be no safe place in the entire Dongping Mansion!" ”

"This ...... In this case, how can we be good?! ”

Hearing this, the prefect of Cheng immediately panicked, since the whole city was within the attack range of that thing, how could his own prefect's yamen be spared? I can't say that I will be the main target!

However, Zhang Qing's words were not finished, he continued: "My lord, this is just enough, as long as we do some precautions in advance, our army may not be able to hold this Dongping Mansion by relying on the geographical advantages, people and people, but it is just ......"

"Just what?!"

"It's just that Wu Da has a way to destroy a long city wall in an instant!"

"What?!"

Cheng Zhifu's face turned green when he heard this, and now those officers and soldiers were frightened, and they only dared to defend on the city wall, if even the city wall was not enough to rely on, how could this battle be fought? !

He opened his mouth, and only asked in a half-loud voice: "In this way, the rumored thing that Wu Da used the magic of the earth dragon to turn over and collapse the city wall is really true?" ”

"The last general found several witnesses last night, and the accounts of the incident seem to be different, so there should be no falsehood - but whether this is the result of magic is unknown."

Having said this, the air pressure in the council hall dropped a few degrees, and everyone turned their heads and mourned, if they hadn't fled at this time, the court would inevitably die after the fact, and someone would have proposed to simply 'break up and share the luggage'.

Governor Cheng was silent for a while, but he turned his annoyed gaze on Sun Dujian, if it wasn't for this dead fat man's main battle, how could he have made trouble to this point? !

By the way, there is also the general sentence Zhang Fengen, he and Sun Fatzi are newcomers, I don't know the ability of the martial arts, why didn't this guy even mention it?!

Now that it's good, the lives of the people in the house will be ruined in the hands of these two thieves!

The more Cheng Zhifu thought about it, the more he hated, and there was a little more murderous in his eyes, and Sun Fatzi, who was only looking at it, was hesitating whether to kneel down first and ask for guilt, when he suddenly heard someone cough dryly, and said: "Lord Prefect, now there is only a 'delaying strategy'!" ”

Everyone looked for prestige, but the person who spoke was Zhang Fengen, the general judge of Dongping Mansion, only to see him get up, come to the table, bow down and say: "My lord, from the humble position, it is better to send a messenger to promise heavy benefits to Nawu Da, just stabilize him for a few days, and wait for the army of Jiangsu and Zhejiang to outflank him from the back road, then his nest will not be guaranteed, but then he can still take care of our Dongping Mansion?" ”

After a pause, he said: "If the Wuda is wiped out by the army of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, naturally everything will be suspended, if he really has the ability to kill and retreat tens of thousands of horses in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, such a monstrous giant is not something that our Dongping Mansion can check and balance, and then there will be a public decision of all the ministers in the court!" ”

These words were like an initiation, and suddenly the mourning soldiers in the hall saw the hope of living.

Cheng Taishou naturally did not slack off under the great joy, and hurriedly discussed with Zhang Fengen some regulations of 'losing power and humiliating the country', and did not fall on paper, only let the sharp-toothed messenger remember it in his heart, and said that no matter what the conditions are, there will be talks, so as to coax Nawu Dalang back to Zhujiazhuang first!

In order to make the envoy rush to Wu Kai as soon as possible, Cheng Taishou also specially contributed his beloved horse - but who would have thought that the messenger would go quickly and come back quickly.

And when he went, he had all his beards and tails, but when he came back, he had a nose missing, and as soon as he entered the door, he cried out of breath: "Lord Prefect! As soon as the students arrived in front of Wuhan University, he saw through this 'delaying strategy' - the tens of thousands of troops in Jiangsu and Zhejiang had already leaked the news, and the reason why Wuhan University came to attack Dongping Mansion was to avoid being attacked on both sides! ”

At this moment, even Zhang Fengen was numb - since Wuda already knew that the army of Jiangsu and Zhejiang would arrive soon, naturally the sooner he captured Dongping Mansion, the more advantageous it would be, and it would be in vain to write any blank checks at this time!

Just when the crowd was panicking, I saw a small colonel quickly break into the hall, and he was out of breath and reported: "Lord Prefect, there are ...... outside the city and outside the city."

Governor Cheng suddenly got up and exclaimed, "Isn't the red scarf thief still thirty miles away?" How did it come so fast?! ”

Seeing that there was a misunderstanding, the little colonel hurriedly explained: "Lord Qiqi, it's not the red scarf thief who came, it's a few eunuchs!" ”
