Chapter Sixty-Nine: The County Lord Strikes

Mo Zifu laughed and thought at the same time, the Mingyue County Lord was also the wedge he casually said to change the topic, even when the Mingyue County Lord attacked the Black Domain Empire a few years ago, he also bypassed Qingxuan City, so even Mo Zifu didn't think that the Mingyue County Lord would really attack Qingxuan City, Qingxuan City at this time was just like an iron plate, if it was forcibly touched, it would only hit his head and bleed.

The county lord of Mingyue has always been wise, so naturally he would not do this, not to mention that if what these generals said was true, then the county lord of Mingyue should be anxious to deal with the military affairs of Changmen Pass at this time, let alone draw any troops to attack Qingxuan City.

Suddenly, a piercing alarm bell rang throughout Qingxuan City, and the outside of the City Lord's Mansion was suddenly filled with many chaotic running sounds.

This alarm sounded as if it was a slap in the face to each of the four people present, and a general said with a cloudy face: "It's an alarm bell from the west, could it be that the Wanmos Empire is really attacking?"

"Why are you so flustered!" Mo Zifu hurriedly opened the door and hurriedly grabbed a small soldier who ran by.

The little soldier saw that it was the city lord, "Lord of the city, there is news from the police tower, the county lord of Mingyue is leading the troops to attack!"

In just one sentence, Mo Zifu was completely stunned, did the Lord of Mingyue really attack? Mo Zifu turned around, "Three generals, you see ......"

However, when he turned around, he found that there was still the shadow of the general, and the three generals turned into three phantoms as soon as they heard the alarm bell, and went straight to the head of Xicheng.

Almost at the same time, the three generals came to the head of the west city wall, looking at the cavalry rushing in the smoke and dust in the distance and the phoenix moon banner hung by the cavalry, their hearts were half cold, and for the first time in their hearts, they had a sense of identity with Mo Zifu, who was useless in their eyes, and the fortifications in the west might indeed need to be repaired again.

"The whole army obeys the order, maintains the current speed, and proceeds as originally planned!" ordered the Lord of Mingyue County.

"Understood!" roared the Summer Night Soldiers.

Looking at the tens of thousands of light horsemen galloping towards them, the three generals shouted at the same time: "Prepare the war cannon!"

Dozens of cannons on the walls moved forward, their muzzles aimed at the rushing Summer Night Light Riders, and when they reached the effective range, they would fire at the same time.

Zheng Xianyue smiled weirdly, is the effective range of the five-mile road, how can you hit it?

General Wang Yue, who was leading the way in front, estimated that the distance was about the same, and roared, "Fold!"

After roaring, he took up the horse's rope with all his might, and drove his horse to the north five hundred paces away, and all the summer night light horses that followed him made a big turn, and all turned around and ran north.

Seeing this situation, the three generals at the head of Qingxuancheng couldn't help but look at each other, not to mention how uncomfortable they were, the ammunition in the cannon had already been filled, and at this time, it seemed that they were ready to stretch out their fists to hit people, but they found that they couldn't reach each other at all.

"North! They went to the north! The north of Qingxuan City is the most defended!"

"This Mingyue County Lord is not necessarily very wise, he actually gave up his weakness, but went to touch the stone. ”

"No," one of the generals said thoughtfully, "do you two feel this way, Lord Mingyue seems to have deliberately let us know that her army has come, and even turned north in front of us, it seems that it has been premeditated for a long time, as if he wanted to tell me their movements." ”

"Is this contempt for me to wait, or is it so arrogant that you want to tear through the strongest defense side of Qingxuan City?"

"Not necessarily, beware of deception," the other general smiled bitterly and spread out his hand, "The county lord of Mingyue has always used soldiers like a god, but one thing is for sure, the first county lord in the world should have set his sights on us." ”

In a remote part of Qingxuan City, there is a huge and luxurious manor. The manor was extremely luxurious, and its level of luxury was not only inconsistent with the overall barren status quo of the Black Domain Empire, but even the city lord's mansion and the mansion of the three generals in Qingxuan City could hardly be compared to it.

The owner of the manor is very mysterious and rarely meets him, but the local residents affectionately call him Mr. Jia.

This Mr. Jia is extremely rich, a few years ago with a long convoy of merchants settled in Qingxuan City, but has expanded hundreds of shops in Qingxuan City, its expansion speed and business scale are jaw-dropping, in just three years to become the richest businessman in Qingxuan City, but although Mr. Jia is rich, but not stingy, not only scattered a lot of money to help many poor people, but also spent a lot of money to dredge up the relationship with Qingxuan City officials.

The city lord Mo Zifu and the three generals, as the highest administrative executive and military executive officer of Qingxuan City, have made a lot of money from Mr. Jia.

Mo Zifu and the three generals also had doubts about Mr. Jia's origin, but every time they found a few places worth doubting, the clues were completely broken.

In the case that there is no investigation and there is stable oil and water to be fished, they completely turn a blind eye to Mr. Jia's modest actions.

Mr. Jia will collect some grain and grass in the whole city at this time of month, of course, not only grain and grass, but also all vegetables and nuts that can be used as grain and grass to satisfy the stomach will also collect a part, and the amount of this collection will increase slightly every month, because the price is relatively high, so many local grain farmers like Mr. Jia very much, and this point is remembered by the city lord Mo Zifu, who can make a lot of money no one is too little.

At first, Mo Zifu carefully selected a small part to sell to Mr. Jia, but soon he found that even if he sold it like this, the military rations were still more and more in Yuetun, and as his courage grew, Mo Zifu simply sold most of the military rations to Mr. Jia a few days before the arrival of the military rations distributed in the Imperial City.

However, this time Mo Zifu made a mistake, he just sold the military rations to Mr. Jia, but he didn't want the evil star of Mingyue County Lord to choose to come to Qingxuan City at this time!

If it is in normal times, if the county lord of Mingyue really attacks the city, once the granary is checked at this time, his head will really have to move.

Mo Zifu hurriedly rode a fast horse to the gate of Mr. Jia's manor, rolled off the horse's back like a fat ball, and lay on the ground with a "poof", after getting up, he didn't have time to care about the sore spots on his body and the mud and dust stained on his clothes, so he hurriedly knocked on the gate of the manor.

"Mr. Jia, Mr. Jia, Mo Zifu asks to see!" Mo Zifu wanted to use his status and privileges as much as possible to "borrow" a little military rations from Mr. Jia first, and no matter how bad it was, he could return some money to Mr. Jia first, and let Mr. Jia return the grain and grass first.
