At noon, the tranquility of Laizhou City was suddenly broken, and the people who entered and exited Laizhou City suddenly found that the city gate was closed for some reason, and a group of soldiers wearing shabby mandarin duck jackets climbed the city wall as if facing a great enemy, and the bright swords and guns flashed with a cold light and stood straight at the crowd gathered at the city gate. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Just as everyone was whispering to each other, an officer who looked like a captain separated the soldiers, walked to the crowd and announced loudly, "By the order of the prefect and the garrison, Laizhou City is temporarily blocked from anyone's entry and exit!" ”

"What!?" The crowd was in an uproar, and several anxious people couldn't help but rush forward and ask, "Dare to ask why the military master blocked the city gate?" But has something big happened? ”

The captain glanced at the man, and said expressionlessly: "An unidentified army appeared outside the city, and the prefect and the garrison were afraid that it would not be good, so they ordered our Laizhou battalion to be on guard, and for the sake of everyone's safety, this official advises everyone not to go out of the city." When the crisis is over, we will open the gates and let you out of the city! ”

The soldiers of the Laizhou battalion are stationed outside Laizhou City all the year round and are responsible for the security of Laizhou City, and the people of Laizhou naturally trust them very much, not to mention that most of the soldiers of the Laizhou battalion are from near Laizhou and belong to their own people in Laizhou, and the people do not believe that the soldiers of the Laizhou battalion will make trouble and deceive them. So after hearing the captain's explanation, everyone quickly accepted this fact.

For such a dangerous thing as a war, the ordinary people are naturally afraid to avoid it. After a while of discussion among the people, who were afraid of harming the pond fish, they quickly left the city gate with trepidation and uneasiness. With the departure of these people, the news that Laizhou City was going to fight also spread quickly throughout Laizhou City.

In an inconspicuous corner of the southern city wall of Laizhou City, Qian Yuan and Zhang Zhao, dressed as small officers, stood there quietly looking at Laizhou City, which was gradually falling into a panic, and couldn't help but look at each other and smile. Qian Yuan stroked his beard and smiled: "I didn't expect Laizhou City to be taken by us so easily, as soon as the Broken Army comes, let's wait for the promotion and make a fortune!" ”

Zhang Zhao also happily continued, "What the Fuzun said is very true, you are the prefect of Laizhou, and you are the garrison officer of Laizhou. The two of us have the highest positions in the military and political aspects of Laizhou City, and we have been in Laizhou City for several years, if we don't have this prestige, wouldn't we have lived for these few years? ”

"Hmm," Qian Yuan nodded and asked Zhang Zhao, "Have you arranged everything in the city?" Those gentry must send someone to the palace to watch the prison, otherwise when the broken army comes and finds that the person is gone, you and I will be disgraced! ”

Zhang Zhao patted his chest and said, "Fuzun, rest assured, the guards at the city gate are all lowly henchmen, and without a lowly order, it is impossible for anyone to sneak out of the city quietly." Even if those gentry can hide from our search, they won't be able to get out of the city! But..."

"But what?" Qian Yuan said with a questioning face

Zhang Zhao hesitated for a moment, and replied with a guilty face, "But just now, the third son sent someone to report that the Xu family in the southwest of the city has gone to the empty building." The gathering place of the Xu family is now except for some ordinary side clansmen, and most of the core members of the lineage have left Laizhou City, where they are gone. Not only that, but the situation of the Zhao family and the Li family is also somewhat similar. Xiao Sanzi led people to rummage through the entire Laizhou City, but they didn't find any trace of them. I guess they may have received some rumors and left early! ”

Qian Yuan pondered for a moment, sighed and waved his hand, "You can't blame you for this matter, there are still three points of nails in the broken ship." The Xu family, the Zhao family and several others have been operating in Laizhou for hundreds of years, and various relationship networks are very complex. The DPRK also has a very large number of contacts, and even the government knows about the affairs of the capital, how can the Xu family and the Zhao family not know that the government estimates that they have already left Laizhou and fled elsewhere at this moment. It's better to go, lest you and I tear our faces with it, and it will be difficult to tolerate the gentry of the world in the future! ”

Zhang Zhao hesitated a little and said, "Fuzun, the people of these big families have all run away, and when the Broken Army comes, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to explain to them, what if they investigate it?" ”

"It's okay," Qian Yuan said with a smile, "This time the matter was in a hurry, and in such a short period of time, the people of several major families had no time to transfer away the family business, at most they just took away some floating wealth." As long as the land and real estate are still there, presumably Liu Fan will not be too harsh on us. The most important thing for us now is to contact the Broken Army outside the city as soon as possible, and hand over Laizhou City to them in good condition, and what they do when the time comes, it doesn't matter to you and me! ”

Zhang Zhao bowed down and said with a smile: "The government is high, and if you are lowly, you will send someone to contact the broken army outside the city and handle this matter as soon as possible!" ”

Time passed little by little, and in the evening, Song Cheng finally came to Laizhou City with his army. Because he got the news from Qian Yuan and Zhang Zhao in advance, Song Cheng already knew the willingness of the two to surrender. After waiting for a moment under the city, the closed gate slowly opened.

Before Song Cheng and the others could speak, a team suddenly came outside the city gate, and the colonel who took the lead saw Song Cheng and other officers' eyes lit up, and hurriedly stepped forward to apologize, "It's Song guerrilla of the Broken Army?" The prefect of my family asked the lowly to come and bring the brothers of the Broken Army into the city. Because there is still some turmoil in Laizhou City, the Fuzun and the garrison can't get away for a while, and they can't come to greet you in person, so please forgive me! ”

"That's right, the official is Song Cheng!" Song Cheng said indifferently, "Since the Qian Governor's Mansion and Zhang Shoubei have important matters on their bodies, then the official will not care too much." It's getting late, take us into town! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xiao Xiao is a smart person, he knows very well how he is doing now, and he doesn't care about Song Cheng's arrogance, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "Lord Song, please everyone!" Come on, get out of the way for the brethren of the Broken Army, and invite them into the city! ”

"Into town!" Song Cheng gave an order, and the soldiers of the Broken Army immediately transformed into four columns and slowly advanced towards Laizhou City. After entering Laizhou City, the careful Song Cheng found that the people of Laizhou City did not seem to be too panicked, even for their uninvited guests, they were more curious than afraid. Seeing this, Song Cheng couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, an army that can not disturb the people is rare in Daming, and he can't help but have a good impression of Qian Yuan and the others.

After a simple meeting, Zhang Zhao and Qian Yuan handed over the defense of Laizhou City to the Broken Army to manage, and they honestly led most of the people to camp outside Laizhou City. When the gate of Laizhou City was opened again in the early morning of the next day, the people were surprised to find that the defenders of Laizhou City had actually changed people, and they had replaced it with an army they had never seen before.

Out of curiosity, the people began to inquire about the origin of this army, and after learning that they were the Broken Army, Laizhou boiled. The people of Laizhou are not unfamiliar with the name of the Jiaozhou Broken Army, and even in the past two years, they have often heard the legend of the Broken Army. For everything that happened in Jiaozhou, the people of Laizhou were very envious in their hearts. Does the arrival of the Breakers now indicate that their good days are coming? (To be continued.) )
