There was not a single Tartar left in the Acropolis, and when Qian Tai returned to the north gate with his people, he found that the gate had been re-closed, and even the iron gate had fallen. With an inexplicable feeling, he climbed to the top of the city again, and raised his eyes to look out in the night.

In the distance, the Qing army camp was lit up, and it was as calm as if the city had never been broken during the day, and everyone was like a dream.

"Isn't the Tartar's head squeezed by the door, and the city has been broken, why did he withdraw again?"

"It's not a dream......

"Oops! What are you doing with your head? ”

A dry laugh followed.

"Wake you up, see if you're still dreaming?"

Qian Tai didn't pay attention to the jokes between the guards and soldiers, they walked back and forth on the line of life and death side by side, I don't know how many times, what else could I blame? After thinking about it, he suddenly felt that his eyes suddenly opened up, and he actually laughed loudly at the black night sky.

This move can scare the soldiers a lot, isn't Qian Zhenfu too anxious and crazy? The soldiers all stopped laughing in the excitement of the rest of their lives, and looked nervously at their backbone, Qian Tai.

Chan Tai laughed for a while before suddenly closing his voice and then ordering.

"You, go and light the wind lanterns at the head of the city! You, go and replant the battle flag of the Ming army, and see how we defend this town like an iron bucket! ”

The soldiers agreed loudly, although they did not agree with Qian Zhen's words, but since they did not die, they would fight the Tartars to the death. In a short time, the wind lantern on the city gate tower was rekindled, and a tattered Ming army battle flag was hunted again in the dark.

As soon as they all packed up and prepared, Qian Tai's order made everyone stunned.

"All who can move and can't move, go down to the city and go home and get some sleep. By the way, leave a few people, slaughter the two lame horses, stew meat tonight, and eat it early tomorrow morning! ”

Qian Tai saw that none of the people around him reflected, and shouted: "What are you doing in a daze? Want to disobey? ”

After Li Xin established the Three Guards Army, his guards and pickets also imitated the system of the Three Guards, and the military discipline has always been strict.

And Qian Zhenfu has always been iron-faced, and when he heard his snort, he all agreed with a bang. But some people couldn't help but ask: "Qian Zhenfu, aren't we guarding the city?" In case, in case the Tartars take the opportunity to attack the city, attack the city, we will not do it, we will not ......"

Looking at Qian Tai's gloomy face, the guard soldier who asked the question stammered more and more, and finally Qian Tai took his words.

"Is it over? Are you trying to say that if the Tartars take the opportunity to attack the city, we'll be finished? You can rest assured and boldly go back to rest and sleep, get up early tomorrow morning to eat meat, as long as the general is here, our acropolis will not be broken! ”

Although the soldiers were still suspicious, they still carried out Qian Tai's military orders thoroughly, and most of them went down to the city to go back to sleep, and only a dozen of Qian Tai's cronies gathered together to wait for further orders from their own suppression.

"What are you doing with your eyes wide and staring at me? Why don't you slaughter the two lame horses and pack up the stew? ”

Qian Zhenfu went crazy, everyone was silently reciting this sentence in their hearts, but everyone coincidentally carried out Qian Zhenfu's military order, slaughtered the horse with all hands and feet, bled and cut the meat, added water from the well to the cauldron, and filled the stove with firewood split from the beams of the house. Soon, the fire was blazing, and the water in the big iron pot was bubbling and blistering, and under the flickering light of the fire, the steaming atmosphere was like the celebration of the slaughter of livestock during the New Year's Festival.

Many soldiers even suddenly realized, is this a dream? Obviously he has entered the Jedi, but he staged a desperate scene again, although he is puzzled, but under the drive of Qian Zhenfu, he temporarily forgot about the Tartar army outside the city, and found a moment to deceive himself and enjoy this rare peace.

At last, the dripping blood was divided into pieces of horse meat into the boiling cauldron, a few handfuls of spices were sprinkled indiscriminately, the firewood in the stove was filled again, the fire was strengthened, and in a moment the smell of meat spread under the city walls, until it was all over the city.

"Who? Sneaky, come out! ”

Just as it was about to dawn, the guard in charge of the guard suddenly noticed the situation, and there seemed to be a sneaky shadow behind a half-dark ruined wall. Soon this sneaky shadow was picked up by the vigilant soldiers.

"How are you?"

When Qian Tai saw this sneaky person who was pulled out by the soldiers, he actually let out an exclamation in surprise.

"Gu Tong? Isn't this Gu Tong? ”

The smell of meat attracted a lot of guards who had already woken up, and they had long been waiting for Qian Zhen's order to eat, but they didn't expect to see this good show. Gu Tongqi who doesn't know, at the beginning, the whole town of the guards of the whole town of the guard, stomp on the ground of the city has to tremble, if it is not for the later General Li took office, this person will be cleaned up, until now I still have to ride on the head of the town guard, old and young, as a prestige!

However, few people know about this person's whereabouts, and there are various rumors, some people say that Gu Tong has been secretly executed by the general, and some people say that Gu Tong was thrown into a coolie camp as a slave, and even more directly said that Gu Tong bought the money and fled for his life. And Li Xin did snub Qian Tai for a while, which became evidence of the rumors at the time.

However, the rumors are not credible after all, Gu Tong has actually been under house arrest in the Acropolis, and Qian Tai is personally in charge, although this product has average ability, but the secrecy work in this matter is excellent. Until the Tartars besieged the town and guarded the city, and wandered back to the battle between life and death several times, Qian Tai did not relax his house arrest of Gu Tong.

Until yesterday, Qian Tai was determined to die in the city, and gathered everyone in the school grounds, including of course the guards who imprisoned Gu Tong. This gave Gu Tong a chance to escape, and after the Tartar inexplicably withdrew from the town guard, Qian Tai sent someone to find it, but Gu Tong's trace had long since disappeared.

This Gu Tong was angry and resentful in the town guards, but now he has landed in this field, which has caused the unanimous shouting and beating of these guards, and the greeting of fists and feet is naturally indispensable, and many people have even vented their grievances with the Tartars for many days, but in this kind of venting, someone soon proposed to kill this person to sacrifice the flag!

This frightened Gu Tong, and now that the army was in chaos, he knew that these bitter haha's people didn't just talk about it, what did they dare not do to kill the red-eyed soldiers?

"Spare your life, spare your life! Qian Zhen soothes me! ”

Looking at Gu Tong's miserable situation, scenes from the past flashed in Qian Tai's mind, and all the difficulties of this person at the beginning were so ridiculous when he looked back today. There was no hatred for this person in his eyes, but he didn't want to save his life either. These soldiers have fought hard all their lives, so why not slaughter this heinous person and fulfill some of their wishes?

Thinking of this, Qian Tai looked at Gu Tong with a sneer.

"Gu Tong, Gu Tong, have you forgotten the life debts you owe thousands of households? At this moment, he still wants to escape the dog's life, isn't it a fool's dream? ”

Gu Tong completely disregarded his face, knelt on the ground and kept begging for mercy, wanting to step forward and hug Qian Tai's thigh, but was pulled and pressed to the ground by the vigilant soldiers, for fear that this person had bad intentions towards Qian Zhen.

"You let go of him and let him come over, Gu Tong has long been a waste, see what tricks he can do?"

After being let go, Gu Tong no longer crawled forward, but knelt on the spot, burst into tears, and verbally begged for mercy.

"Phew! Look at your virtue, when you ordered to kill dozens of people from thousands of households on our right, you didn't blink your eyes, and now it's your turn to be afraid? ”

"Karma, evil has evil retribution, even if you break your head, Qian Zhenfu will not spare you!"

The soldiers from thousands of households accused this big man who was in the town guard at the beginning, and vented the resentment that had accumulated for many years.

"Qian Zhenfu, Qian Zhenfu, Gu Tong has something to say to Qian Zhenfu, this, this should be able to exchange Gu Tong's life!"

The scene was too chaotic, Qian Tai didn't really hear it, walked two steps to Gu Tong, and leaned down.

"Say what?"

"I said, let's make a deal!"

"Deal?"

Qian Tai thought it was funny and strange, and he still wanted to make a deal when he got to this point.

"What deal?"

"One piece of news, one life for Gu Tong!"

As soon as this remark came out, some people said that he was delusional, and Qian Tai also felt that what kind of news could save his life at this moment, so he casually agreed: "Let's talk about it, you can consider it!" ”

Gu Tong refused to give in lightly, but said: "I know that Qian Zhenfu refuses to believe it, Gu Tong's news is worth a life, what if this news can be exchanged for the life of this city?" ”

"What? Do you want to be clear? What is the life of the city? Do you have three heads and six arms? ”

Some soldiers were extremely dissatisfied with his wild words, and took the lead in questioning Qian Tai.

"Gu doesn't have three heads and six arms, but he knows that there is a secret passage in the acropolis that leads five miles south of the city, do you think about it and see if it is enough to save the lives of this city?"

Qian Tai's heart suddenly burst into excitement, Gu Tong was afraid that what he said was true, and stepped forward and grabbed him by the collar, "Is this true?" ”

For several days, Turg did not attack the city again, and although the method he came up with in his hurry was open to discussion, it was the only way to ensure that the castle would not fall. The Ming army in the city seems to have stopped a lot, and the routine drills of the past are no longer carried out, it seems that they should be aware of their own situation, and must have despaired, and even gave up their resistance to it. This is better, he only needs to wait for the moment when Li Xin's army arrives, Mr. Lu's ambush will burst out, and then he will give another order to crush this annoying little castle to the scum!
