It didn't take long for a huge cheer to ring out in the sky above Castle Clearwater. Then there was chaos, and about a hundred cavalry first roared out of Qingshui Fort.

The infantry of the brigade is also moving, some of them are wearing mandarin duck battle robes, some are wearing green clothes, and some are tattered, and I don't know how long they have been wearing. They were armed with various weapons, such as swords, guns, swords, halberds, wooden sticks, hoes, forks, etc., and vaguely formed a formation, dragging out a long dragon.

After Yang Liugong sent Wang Jiayin away, with some excitement and a little nervousness, he loudly ordered the remaining subordinates.

"Hurry up, load all the grain in the side warehouse into the car."

"You, you, you, when the news comes out, you say that if you want to eat, you will go to the county seat!"

"And you, hurry up and pack your things, if you don't have important things, there's nothing in the county? Move fast! ”

“……”

On the way to the county seat, the knights lay on their horses, whipping their horses quickly, and the horses' hooves were like thunder, bringing up dust in the sky. The speed is so fast that it is like a yellow dragon flying forward.

Even so, Wang Jiayin still felt that it was not fast enough. He looked up from time to time to observe the situation around him, and suddenly he stretched out his hand and turned around a few times to signal, and then took the reins and rushed into a ravine on the side of the official road.

One of the guards beside him followed a few steps and shouted loudly: "Master, this road is a bit dangerous, be careful of landslides!" ”

"I can't care so much, the most important thing at the moment is to get to the county seat as soon as possible. Quick, herald, keep up! Wang Jiayin shouted loudly.

At this time, he was anxious. If the officers and men had arrived earlier than themselves, they would have fallen short.

Now that he has finally captured the county seat, this is really a big thing for God to help him. This unexpected joy must not be wasted.

After the incident on his side, the brothers who went to various places would also rise up one after another, and then lead the army to join him. At that time, the army was strong, and even if any officer or army came over, it would have the capital to fight.

Originally, in order to wait for them to come over and join him, he tried to delay the time of the incident on his side as much as possible, but unfortunately it backfired and he had to start the incident in advance.

Second, he thought that if he could not hold out at Qingshui Fort, he would turn into Alfalfa Gully in Huanglong Mountain, where there was a temporary cottage of his own, which was difficult for officers and soldiers to find.

But that place was actually unavoidable, because of the water and food problems, and the severe cold was even more fatal.

But if he takes the county seat of Fugu and uses the county seat as a stronghold to hold on, and insists on meeting people from all walks of life, Wang Jiayin has twelve points of confidence.

Because the county seat of Fugu is built on the slope, the Yellow River in the south, the cliffs and cliffs, the east and west manna and the two ditches of Majia are all connected to the river. The northern "throat" is connected with Gaoliang Mountain and Wulidun, and the negative mountain blocks the river, and the situation is precipitous.

It itself surrounds the city for three miles and is in the shape of a boot; The height of the city is two feet and five feet. There are six gates: east, south, west, north, small west and small south; The four gates have city towers, the corners are heavy, the south gate, the north gate, the small west gate are hung outside the urn city, and the east gate, the small south gate, the south gate are set up to control the far gate again.

In a word, Fugu County is easy to defend and difficult to attack. I think that during the Song Dynasty, the Zhe family used this as a stronghold and fought with Western Xia, Jin and other countries for many years without being captured, which can be seen.

The more he thought about the benefits of occupying Fugu County, the more anxious Wang Jiayin became. He kept increasing the speed of his horse, just to get to the county seat as soon as possible. So much so that in a few corners, there were several knights who did not turn the corners, causing people to turn their horses on their backs.

Finally, in the early afternoon, after turning out of the ravine, the county town of Fugu on the top of the mountain in the distance was in sight.

Although the distance is too far, the situation in the county is not very clear. But Wang Jiayin's heart sank, and his brows furrowed.

Because he could not see smoke in the city, that is, the fire in the city was extinguished. In addition, there was no crowd fleeing from the city, not even a sparse crowd. This can only be one reason, and that is that the gates are controlled.

And the fire was extinguished and the city gates were brought under control for only two reasons.

First, it was Ngo Dinh Quy who brought the turmoil in the city under control in time, reorganized the rioting crowd, extinguished the fire, and took control of the city gates.

But this seems impossible, Wang Jiayin himself knows that in that chaotic situation, it is very unlikely that he wants to wake up a group of crazy people, let them resist the temptation of gold, silver, treasure and food, and obey the command.

Even if you are present, it is difficult to complete such a life-turning move in one morning. How much ability Wu Tinggui has, he knows very well in his heart.

Wang Jiayin also thought of Hu Kuan, but he also denied it immediately. Because Hu Kuan ran to Qingshui alone to ask for help, it can be seen that he has no one to follow at all, how can he do this!

Then, only the second possibility remains. That is, the officers and soldiers had already arrived, took control of the city gates and suppressed the mob with thunderous means.

But this is somewhat unreasonable, even if the officers and soldiers arrived in advance, it is probably impossible to complete these things in less than half a day. At least with the habits of the officers and soldiers, it is impossible to extinguish the fire, I am afraid that it is more of an opportunity to make money.

Wang Jiayin thought as he continued to hurry. Anyway, now that you're here, you have to get up close. Even if something happens, they are all cavalry on their side, and they can run away anyway.

Closer, closer, closer.

Wang Jiayin's speed was also slowly decreasing, his mood was getting worse and worse, and his brows were about to wrinkle.

By this time, he had seen that the city gate was indeed closed. The figures at the head of the city swayed, apparently guarded by soldiers.

From afar, the soldiers were red. You don't have to guess to know that this can only be the red mandarin duck robe of the Ming army.

Wang Jiayin's subordinates also found out about this, and their originally very excited expressions slowly cooled down and turned into disappointment.

A guard hesitated for a while, then approached Wang Jiayin and reminded: "Master, the county town seems to have fallen into the hands of the official army, and if we get closer, I'm afraid there will be trouble." ”

It's already here, and the big pie is right in front of you. didn't go over to confirm whether this pie was poisonous, Wang Jiayin was really unwilling.

So he shook his head, and didn't speak, but continued to urge the horse forward.

The people at the head of the city had apparently spotted them as well, after all, more than a hundred horsemen had come galloping, and the dust they had brought up was not difficult to spot, even if it was far away.

When the guards found this, they were anxious and hurriedly persuaded again: "Master, you can't go any further, the officials and soldiers in the city are about to rush out." If you get closer, you're bound to get into trouble. ”

As he said this, he suddenly noticed that the old man's face was changing. The originally gloomy face smiled, and finally cracked its mouth, and laughed out loud without a single image.
