752: Where is the king's banner?
Cheng Qing guessed correctly, Jiang Ziji almost just broke out of the city when he noticed that something was wrong.
If the Wei people really discovered his true identity, Anding County would never close the city gate, but would send troops to pursue him, and would not let him escape alive.
When he found that Anding County quickly closed the city gate and there were no chasing soldiers, Jiang Ziji knew that he had been fooled!
"Stop!"
"The Kingβ"
The guards were puzzled, Jiang Ziji laughed loudly, and the laughter spread far away in the night, shaking his own chest: "What a bluff!" In this small place, there are also hidden characters. β
Jiang Ziji was really jealous.
There are too many talents in Dawei.
Xiao Yunting, who is sick, Yu Xian of Jinyiwei, and Cheng Qing, who passes by during the day, these people are so young, and if they are given some years to grow up, they will definitely be even more powerful.
It is precisely because there is no shortage of talents in the Great Wei that such a country full of holes, the iron cavalry of the Great Qi is brave and good at fighting, but it cannot capture the northwest and smash the Yellow Dragon.
How good it would be if these talents all belonged to Daqi!
Not to mention talents like Cheng Qing and Xiao Yunting, a small Anding County is actually hiding dragons and crouching tigers, Jiang Ziji is angry and jealous.
Originally, he could have broken through Anding at a small cost, but now that his whereabouts have been exposed, Anding County will still attack, but it will cost even more.
Every death of a Great Qi soldier is a loss for Jiang Ziji.
For the culprit who caused him a lot of losses, Jiang Ziji will never let go.
The paralysis in the lower half of the body has not completely dissipated, and Jiang Ziji asked his subordinates to set off signal fireworks again.
At this time, they had only escaped from Anding County for more than a dozen miles, and Jiang Ziji was not afraid that there would be pursuers coming from behind.
This time the fireworks are orange-yellow.
This is the signal to attack!
The Daqi army, which was hiding near Anding County, would quickly gather after seeing the signal and attack Anding County under the leadership of Jiang Ziji.
β¦β¦
In Anding County, Cheng Qing and others also saw the fireworks in the sky.
She didn't know what the orange fireworks were, but they weren't a good thing.
The general of the Anding County garrison was surnamed Lu, and General Lu's face also changed greatly and left in a hurry.
So soon, the barbarians are about to attack the city?
General Lu dealt with his cronies just now, and Cheng Qing reminded him that the layout of Anding County's city defense should have fallen into the hands of the barbarians, and said that Jiang Ziji would soon react and be deceived, and asked General Lu to prepare for the battle as soon as possible.
General Lu didn't believe it at first, thinking that Cheng Qing was alarmist.
If Jiang Ziji was really that powerful, he wouldn't run away like a lost dog.
Cheng Qing and Gu Hongtai took a few people and scared Jiang Ziji away by bluffing, which is of course Cheng Qing and Gu Hongtai's strength, but also shows that Jiang Ziji's ability is unbearable...... How did he know that the slap in the face came so quickly, Cheng Qing's voice was still hot, and there were signal fireworks outside Anding City.
The barbarians are going to attack the city!
General Lu suddenly became anxious like a burning buttocks.
"If you fight brightly, Anding County may not lose."
Gu Hongtai comforted Cheng Qing.
What they were afraid of before was that the barbarians would make a conspiracy, and Qiu Sinan should cooperate with each other to catch Anding County off guard.
Now that Qiu Sinan is still in their hands, Jiang Ziji has exposed his whereabouts again, and more importantly, the movements of the county government have exposed the spies in ambush around General Lu, General Lu's crisis has been lifted, and he can go all out to resist the enemy, no matter how you look at it, the situation is stronger than in the afternoon.
In the afternoon, it was an unknown situation, the enemy was in the shadows, and there was no chance of victory.
"You don't have to win."
Cheng Qing didn't go to the city wall immediately to watch the situation, Jiang Ziji pretended to be a businessman, and transported a lot of "goods" to Anding County, Cheng Qing wanted to know what that batch of goods was and where it was now.
I have to ask Qiu Sinan about this.
Qiu Sinan was fed sweat medicine and became a tool man, and several officials carried Qiu Sinan without going far, but he was stopped.
All of Gu Hongtai's manpower was used to assassinate Jiang Ziji, and he couldn't distinguish anyone to keep an eye on Qiu Sinan, Cheng Qing was now looking for someone, and several servants carrying Qiu Sinan were knocked unconscious in the alley, and Qiu Sinan was nowhere to be seen.
When it was so critical, the barbarians couldn't take Qiu Sinan away, and Qiu Sinan was saved by his "accomplices".
In Anding County, in addition to Qiu Sinan, there are other old departments of Prince Yuzhang.
Thinking of those people hiding in the shadows, Cheng Qing was very annoyed.
Gu Hongtai finally found the people from the county government and asked about the merchants who entered the city today, and the goods that came in were locked up with the merchants.
It seems that Jiang Ziji has not had time to deal with these merchants, and he has not been able to transport the goods by air for the time being.
Cheng Qing found the merchants, and he also found Jiang Ziji's goods.
The merchants were temporarily locked up in a large inn, and Qiu Zhixian did not allow them to move around without permission in the name of investigating the spies, and sent officials to guard them.
Most of the day passed, and the merchants were hungry and thirsty.
Qiu Zhi County did not move their goods, but took away food and drinking water, and when Cheng Qing and Gu Hongtai found a place, the merchants were very emotional and condemned Qiu Zhi County's arrogance.
"It would be nice if that Master Cheng was there during the day."
"Yes, I knew not to enter the city, this Anding County is a prison, only allowed to enter and not let out......"
The disguise on Cheng Qing's face has not been removed, and when she heard these businessmen praising her, she had no waves in her heart, she just wanted to hehe.
At the inn, Cheng Qing and Gu Hongtai not only found Jiang Ziji's goods, but also found Cheng Qing's exchanged goods.
It seems that Jiang Ziji is going to take away wool socks and gloves as military quartermasters after capturing Anding County.
It's so beautiful to think about!
These woolen socks and gloves were made by the female weavers in the weaving workshop and the women of Qin'an County day and night, He Wan was tired and sick for this matter, if it fell into the hands of the barbarians, Cheng Qing was willing to burn them all with a fire.
"Wuda, you remember, if Anding County is breached, you will burn all this batch of goods!"
It is very reluctant to destroy, at least it is better than the enemy.
Gu Hongtai checked the goods that Jiang Ziji had brought into the city, and his face was dark and gloomy.
ββ¦β¦ It's fire oil. β
Thermal oil is untreated petroleum crude oil.
The Northwest is rich in oil reserves, and some shallow oil fields are easily exploited.
Oil is now not an industrial raw material, but a weapon of destruction for siege and land grabbing.
"It's just right, it's all on the city wall!"
Jiang Ziji wanted to snatch the military supplies transported by Cheng Qing, but by mistake, he sent his important materials to Cheng Qing, of course Cheng Qing would not be polite, and decided to transport Jiang Ziji's hard work to bring in the oil and use it on the barbarians!
When the fire oil was transported under the city wall, it was less than two hours before Jiang Ziji broke out of the city, and the horn sounded outside Anding County.
The armies of the barbarians are gathered!
The sound of horses' hooves shook the sky, and the barbarian army was quite numerous.
General Lu saw Cheng Qing and Gu Hongtai go up to the city wall, and there was no smile on his face.
Illuminated by the torches on the city walls, the banners of the barbarian army loomed in the distance.
General Lu lost his voice and said, "Then, that's the barbarian's royal banner?!" β
Who can raise the banner of the king?
Who the hell is Jiang Ziji!
Gu Hongtai thought of a possibility, but he didn't dare to believe it.
