"My lord, are you persuading you to surrender?" An official asked.

Xiazhou Governor Mu Ran shook his head: "No." ”

"What do you mean by Zhao Guoren?"

"See for yourselves."

When these people finished reading the letter, everyone was stunned.

"You must hand over 20,000 taels of gold, or gems of equivalent value, before noon tomorrow, otherwise I will break through Xiazhou City and slaughter and plunder the city.

Signed: Qin Guan. ”

"My lord, what are we going to do?" An official asked anxiously.

At this time, someone said: "Where can we get 20,000 taels of gold, besides, Qin Guan may not be able to break through Xiazhou City." ”

A person next to him suddenly said urgently: "What do you think Xiazhou is better than Nanjing in Liao, and how is it better than Zhongjing in Liao, those Xiongcheng have been attacked by Qin Guan, do you think he can't break Xiazhou!" ”

The prefect of Xiazhou gritted his teeth and said: "For the safety of the people of Xiazhou, you take the government guards, and before dawn tomorrow, I will make up this money for me no matter what method you use." ”

It was night, and the entire Xiazhou City was in chaos.

The soldiers did not go to the city defense, but robbed in the city of Xiazhou, those big merchants were unlucky, some people's money was robbed, and some soldiers took advantage of the chaos to rape silver women, and some stuffed money into their own pockets.

The darkness of the night covered up this ugly scene.

After dawn, the entire Xiazhou City fell into a dead silence, except for the occasional sporadic crying.

Early in the morning, the sun comes out.

The gate of Xiazhou opened, and a carriage came out, and as soon as the carriage left the city, the city gate slammed shut, and an old man drove the carriage towards the place where the Zhao army was stationed.

After a while, a team of cavalry brought the old man and the car to Xiong Er, and the old man said tremblingly: "General, the old man is just a charioteer, don't kill me, the prefect of Xiazhou City asked me to drive the cart over, saying that it was General Qin who wanted it, and the old man didn't know anything else." ”

Xiong Er opened the carriage, and suddenly revealed a bright gold, it was gold, several baskets of gold, and there was a deerskin bag in it, he opened it and saw that it was a bag of various colored gems.

Yesterday, when Qin Guan told Xiong Er that he was going to blackmail Xiazhou City, Xiong Er was full of disbelief, just firing a few bursting arrows, and the Xixia people were willing to send them obediently, how could it be.

But now that he saw the gold and silver, Xiong Er believed it.

The old man was released, and the old man disappeared into the wilderness with a smoke, and the swift pace could not be caught up by ordinary young people.

Qin Guan had just finished brushing his teeth, and Xiong Er came to report, "Young master, Xiazhou City really paid the money, these guys are too cowardly, the young master sent a letter, and they obediently handed over the money." ”

Qin Guan said: "Teach you a word today, deterrence." ”

And what happened in Xiazhou, the king of Great Xia also received a report, and when he just saw these reports, his first reaction was not to believe it.

If Qin Guan kills people, he can understand it, but how can it be possible that the mountains and forests disappeared overnight and the grasslands turned into deserts.

It must have been those people below who exaggerated Qin Guan infinitely in order to cover up their incompetence, and the Great Xia Emperor was angry in his heart, but when the second and third reports were sent, he had to believe it.

Qin Guan invaded the Liao State on behalf of the army, forced the Liao State to subdue, and now it is wreaking havoc in the Great Xia Kingdom, which makes the Great Xia Emperor also beat a drum in his heart, "Send heavy troops to surround Qin Guan, and you must annihilate him in the territory of Great Xia." ”

Qin Guan took five thousand cavalry and left Xiazhou in a mighty way, heading towards another target.

Yanzhou.

"Oh no, Qin Guan is coming to Yanzhou."

"Qin Guan has arrived in Yanzhou, let's run!!"

Before Qin Guan arrived in Yanzhou, many people in Yanzhou were already trembling with fear, and many people directly abandoned their industries and ran to Yanzhou City to hide.

Loot towns and soak up aura.

Qin Guan never stops in one place, and there is no fixed route, if he is in a certain place today, he may run to a certain place three hundred miles away the next day, although the Great Xia Kingdom has mobilized heavy troops, but he can't catch Qin Guan's shadow at all.

Five days later, Qin Guan reappeared under the city of Yanzhou.

Qin Guan ordered all explosives bags to be thrown at the city gate.

With a loud bang, the door of the Yanzhou City Cave opened.

It also shocked everyone.

"Kill!"

Xiong Er rushed directly into the city with 5,000 cavalry, ignoring the others, and directly killed the prefect's yamen, pulling out the prefect who was still asleep.

"Do you want to live or you want to die." Xiong Er glared at the prefect angrily.

The prefect shrank and said tremblingly: "I want to live, I want to live." ”

"Twenty thousand taels of gold, or precious stones of equal value, will not be given."

The prefect nodded hurriedly, "I'll give, I'll give." ”

After searching the city of Yanzhou, the cavalry quickly left and disappeared into the night again.

When the Emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom knew what happened in Yanzhou City, he was so angry that he slapped the table and scolded Qin Guan for being a robber, which was too shameless.

Ordered again, sent an army to search for Qin Guan, chased and intercepted him, and must take Qin Guan down, but a day later, Qin Guan appeared in the Yinzhou fortress, broke through from the inside, opened the fortress, and returned to Xiongzhou.

Yes, Qin Guan returned to Xiongzhou.

He just wanted to go back to Xiongzhou, but he chose a more exciting road, Qin Guan just thought it was interesting, but it stirred up the entire Xixia chicken dog restlessness, and also left the reputation of the Great Demon King of Qin Guan.

When he knew that Qin Guan had broken through the Yinzhou fortress and had returned to the Great Zhao Kingdom, the Great Xia Emperor couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He was really a little scared, afraid that Qin Guan would really lead his troops to Xingqing Mansion, the summer capital.

After scolding Qin Guan, the king of Great Xia quickly made a decision to send an envoy to the Great Zhao State, submit the credentials, and proclaim himself a vassal to the Great Zhao State.

This is the third time that the Great Xia State has declared itself a vassal to the Great Zhao State, in the past they always called the minister when they couldn't do it, once the Great Zhao State was weak, they immediately repented, and now the Great Zhao State has a Qin Guan, and the powerful Liao State that can fight can't raise its head, and it also sent a princess.

The king of Great Xia saw the deep crisis, so he immediately chose to kneel.

Qin Guan returned to Xiongzhou, all the officials went out of the city to greet him, and now Qin Guan is already a veritable lord of Xiongzhou, this is the fief given to him by the emperor himself, and he also has the right to manage it with full authority, that is to say, the officials here, he has the right to be promoted and dismissed.

Qin Guan immediately ordered that Xu Qing should be appointed as the prefect of Xiongzhou, and Shen Yichen should be appointed as the general judge of Xiongzhou, and reported to His Majesty for approval.

Of course, this is just a ceremony, as long as Qin Guan reports it, the emperor will approve it.

As for the appointment and dismissal of the county order, Qin Guan himself has the right, and he only needs to report to the ministry.

After drinking a lot of wine, back in the courtyard, the Luo Yi people served Qin Guan to bathe, in the bath, the Luo Yi people gently rubbed Qin Guan's back, the gauze clothes were wet and delicate, Qin Guan couldn't bear it, hugged the Luo Yi people, and said: "Xianggong will rub it for you first." ”

Then the two of them entered the cultivation time.
