As if he was really hit by Huo Dao'er's words, Wang Kuang's pretended businessman turned his head and glared at him, gritted his teeth and made up his mind, agreeing to enter the city at this price.

Dian Wei was not far behind Wang Kuang, a pair of iron halberds hidden under the bag, ready to fail the trick or be caught by the officers and soldiers to forcibly attack the city, he had a unique appearance, for fear of attracting the attention of the officers and soldiers, he did not dare to speak.

His own team was eaten to death by Ailan, who could only use a sword, and the young man who had just come out to chase Ma couldn't help but smile, but he was also afraid that Huo Dao'er would talk more bad things, so he took a step forward and made the appearance of talking to him to distract him.

The young man's name is Xiahou Sheng, the word is Qi, the same age as Xie Yun, and the same is from Yongqiumin, this year before he entered the Yong Death before asking Tian Chou to take the word, but he doesn't like to use a halberd, but prefers a knife, and he entered the sword and shield pawn, compiled in Wang Kuangtun, Huo Daoer is his team rate.

The officers and soldiers on the city tower were thinking about how to distribute the goods in hand for a while, and they didn't pay much attention to the guys of the caravan under the city wall.

The caravan rushed in, Wang Kuang, Dian Wei, Ailan and others accompanied Natun Chang to the forefront, while Huo Dao'er and Xiahou Sheng were worried that the cattle would fall into the trench and stayed on the suspension bridge to greet them.

This side successfully opened the city gate, and a few miles away, Deng Ji led more than 2,000 horsemen to rush out of the hideout.

Walking out of the hole in the city gate, the old merchant beside him still had a gloomy face, and he should be hurting the goods on the back of his five horses, and the tun chief didn't care, but it didn't take long for someone on the city wall to exclaim.

"What's the alarm?" With a tense heart, the tun chief turned around and raised his head and asked loudly.

"Commander, a large group of cavalry is coming!"

There must be something wrong with this caravan! The officer and soldier were taken aback, and reached out to touch the handle of his sword, but suddenly there was a pain in his throat, and his breathing was immediately unsmooth, and then something flowed from his neck into his robe.

The tun chief looked down with great effort, and he could still see half of the sword body stuck in his throat.

Ailan suddenly stabbed the tun chief, Wang Kuang, Dian Wei and others also attacked, chopping several officers and soldiers who were caught off guard to the ground, and then went to the city tower to kill, Huo Dao'er and Xiahou Sheng drew their knives and cut the rope of the drawbridge a few times, and then followed the kill.

The tun chief died, the city gate was broken, and there was a large army of iron horsemen in the distance, where did the rabble on the city tower still have fighting spirit, Wang Kuang and others when they were killed, they either knelt on the ground and begged to surrender, or fled to the rest of the gates.

There are not many officers and soldiers left in the city, and when the companions reported that there was a large group of men and horses killing into the city, even whether the enemy army was the Huns, Xiliang or bandits did not find out, Deng Ji and others were still outside the city, and the border troops who were dragged down by their families took the lead in escaping from the city, and the bandits entered the city without much resistance.

The change is too fast, the big families in the eldest son city have not yet reacted, the city has changed hands, and when Deng Ji asked people to go and guard the four gates, they just wanted to escape too late, and they couldn't gather the various families for a while, so they could only guard their own doors, and they were all broken by the brave soldiers.

Shangdang County Shaofu Shi (Note) also failed to escape, and when he was brought to Deng Ji, he was already trembling with fright, and Deng Ji had to appease him and let him lead people to open the treasury.

The money and wealth of the bandits are not of much use at the moment, so they don't care much, and when they open the arsenals one by one, in order to equip the fleeing border troops, there is not much armor left in them, and the warehouse where other equipment is stored is also empty, but there are a lot of bows and crossbows, as well as eight bed crossbows on the city wall, which is enough to make Deng Ji happy.

There are only less than 50,000 stones of grain in the granary, but the big families in the city have a lot of food, and Deng Ji has the consciousness of being a thief, but he has no intention of letting them go.

His own troops are limited, and the eldest son city is destined to be unable to defend it, but he is just looking for fighters.

There are only more than 2,000 brave soldiers and auxiliary soldiers, and many of these things in the city cannot be moved by their own homes, and the means of coercing the homeless people when they are moths and thieves have not been used for many years.

To kill the evildoer Liweibi, and ordered Tian Mazi's department to loot the big households in the city from house to house, and the Hao clan Ding Bu Qu was forced to carry the materials, and those who dared not do it were naturally cut in two, and those who did not obey died.

In addition to the big households, all kinds of craftsmen in Shangdang County are the eldest sons, and there are rare archers, armor craftsmen, lacquer craftsmen, jade craftsmen, etc., and one of them cannot be let go, and they are all coerced into the team.

This kind of behavior, Tai Shici and Han Qi are very dissatisfied, but this is the true face of the thief, Deng Ji is still warm, and they are powerless to object.

The eldest son is on the party office, on the day of the fall Zhang Yang got the news, busy throwing away the solid and three thousand county soldiers to guard the Huguan, his own army into Tunliu County to force the eldest son, but Deng Jibu can fight against tens of thousands of troops in Yiyi, Zhang Yang also knows that his troops are elite, and most of them are ironclad heavy cavalry, and the equipment is better than his own officers and soldiers, he did not dare to fight, only sent envoys in Tunliu County, and summoned the border troops scattered in the counties to come back.

This is mainly for revenge, after Zhang Yangjun came out, Ma Pi has come to report, Wei Gu is still staying in Huguan, Deng Ji only coerced four thousand Hao clansmen out of the eldest son county, Zhang Yang people are few, did not dare to pursue, after they retreated, they returned to the eldest son, and cleaned up the devastation of the city.

Jiao's village is in Shipo Township, on the outskirts of Huguan, all around is flat, Deng Ji went all the way, first let the army surround it, and then outside the wooden wall to ask Jiao He to talk to Jiao Tong.

Jiao He is Jiao Qin's uncle and the current patriarch of the Jiao family, and Jiao Tong is Jiao Qin's second brother, who is now a husband in the township, but he is at home on weekdays.

Jiao Qin was kidnapped by thieves in Lu County, and later heard that the in-laws Wu family were also forced to follow the thieves, and all those who did these things were Taihang Deng Ji, who had previously pretended to be Lei Gong and was originally called Pimple, and at this time, Jiao Ji's two closest relatives knew that the young man who led the army outside the wall was that person.

This Jiao Tong is upright, his face is white, his body is slightly fat, he has a good relationship with his sister since he was a child, his misfortune fell into the hands of thieves, every time he thinks about it for four years, it is gloomy, the sister first lost and then the whole Wu clan from the thief, this thing is a lot, so he hates Wu and the thief Deng Ji, at this time I finally have to see one of the faces, how can there be any good face?

Deng Ji didn't care, he told Jiao Qin about the recent situation in front of the village, the sister had no children in the Wu family, but now even the child has been born for this thief, Jiao Tong has become a cheap uncle, and I don't know whether he is happy or angry.

Jiao He has shown his old age, as the head of a family, although he is also concerned about his niece, he is a little more rational than Jiao Tong, Jiao Qin is just a niece, compared to the life and future of the whole clan, this Deng Ji Chen army is outside, obviously not for the sake of the family, when he finished speaking, he said lightly: "The foot is not Na Qin'er, she does not want to return, just ask the foot not to treat her badly, our good family, but dare not climb the foot, but please lead the army to go, the two families have nothing to do with each other!" ”

"If the flesh and blood relatives can't get together, won't they cry out?" Since Jiao Qin told his brother and family, he should have expected this scene, so Deng Ji said with a shy face: "I don't know if Jiao Ji's mother is here?" I should also meet you, Jiao Ji misses it very much, Deng Ji is here to pick her up and you to reunite with her in the Hou Kingdom! ”

On the wooden wall, Jiao He and Jiao Tong all changed their faces, but this thief was already a poor dagger: "I am a reckless person, I can't know the number of etiquette, within an hour, you open the door and come out, Jiao Ji's mother is my child's grandmother, the two are my child's maternal uncle and uncle, you and I are a family, otherwise, the sons and daughters move roughly, and they also hurt each other's face!" ”

Everyone knows that the Han Dynasty will fall, but no one with insight will go to the thief because of this, the Wu family was unwilling, where was the Jiao family willing to obey? It's just that the threat in Deng Ji's words is full of threats, and these thieves are all murderous, and they don't look willing to give up.

Although Jiao's also has more than 600 parts, Jiao He, Jiao Tong and others also know that the general Zhenggu who was stationed in Huguan commanded thousands of troops has suffered his big losses twice, and now that people have come to Huguan County, Zhenggu does not dare to go out of the city, and it is clear at a glance which is stronger and which is weak.

After Deng Ji finished talking to them, he ordered his brave soldiers to perform archery and lift stones in front of the gate of the village, so as to boast of their strength.

If he really makes a move, the Jiao family is only afraid of a lot of casualties, and he can't beat this kind of thief!

The limited hour is not long, after all, strength is respected in troubled times, and the Jiao clan is unwilling in every way, so they have to listen to the patriarch and the clan elders to open the door to welcome the thief.

A day later, in addition to the eldest son's clans, Deng Jiwei had more Huguan Jiao clan among the people, and when they set fire to Jiao's village, the whole army retreated to Taihang along Lu County.

Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang Zhi and other border troops came back one after another, until they gathered enough 10,000 people before leading the troops to chase the thieves, but Deng Ji had already entered Taihang, and the officers and soldiers of Luxian County saw that the thieves were powerful, and they did not dare to go out of the city to intercept, and Zhang Yang returned in vain.
