Chapter 412: The Pit Becomes (Two Chapters in One)

Digging a pit??? countless questions appeared in the minds of the four people for a moment, obviously I don't know which pit to dig at such a tense moment now, this is the way that the county magistrate and their adults discussed in the study?

I thought so in my heart, but I didn't dare to say it like this, and at the moment, I naturally had to bury my head and follow the adults forward.

Not surprisingly, the head catcher of Mr. Li, who was promoted by Master Feng before, was successfully replaced by the head of the Wu catcher, Wu Zhende was considered an official reinstatement, and the head of the big catcher Li is now slightly inferior to before, just an ordinary member of the homeless people.

In the chaotic Yulin County, there were people patrolling the workshop everywhere to maintain order, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince casually found someone to show the order letter of the county commander, indicating that he wanted to know where the head of the martial arts was, and then he respectfully took him to the location of the head of the martial arts.

"Ah, Bai Shaoxia. Wu Zhutou was leading a team of people, planning to go to Dongcheng District to have a look, and as soon as he stepped out of the mansion, he saw Bai Shaoxia coming over, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"I have something to discuss. "Time is urgent, there is no nonsense, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at the oncoming Wu Zhutou and said directly, and as he spoke, he stepped forward and directly supported Wu Zhutou and led him to the corner.

Seeing the serious expression of the Bai Shaoxia in front of him, the head of the martial arts couldn't help but get nervous, and then saw the person in front of him take out the county order letter from his arms, and said: "Bai Shaoxia has any orders, just say it." ”

"You quickly gather the men and horses, and leave only a few people in the torture workshop to maintain themselves in the city, and all the rest of the horses will bring hoes and other farm tools, and all go out of the city with me. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a little shocked when he knew his order, and as he spoke, he gestured to the order letter in his hand.

"Okay, let's go. Wu Zhutou glanced at the Ling Xin, nodded vigorously, turned around and walked back, but he couldn't stop wondering in his heart, what are you doing with farm tools?

"The gate of the city is waiting for you to come with your men. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said to the back of the head of the martial arts, and after speaking, the soldiers divided into two ways, turned around and continued to walk towards the city gate with the four people behind him.

From afar, the anxious guards saw the red-robed figure of His Royal Highness the Prince, and wondered why this lord, who came with the county commander, came back so quickly.

In front of him is still the city gate where His Royal Highness the Crown Prince entered the city before, and the long queue of people at the city gate does not seem to be much less.

The guard wanted to run over and explain something to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but he didn't know what he should say, and at the same time he couldn't let go of what he was doing, looked at the person behind him, frowned and said with some impatience in his mouth: "Next." ”

But then he found out from the corner of his eye that the man in the red robe was actually walking in his direction, and he began to silently think in his heart that he must not trouble himself.

"Take a step to speak. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walked straight to the side of the guard, and no one stopped His Highness, after experiencing the scene in front of the city gate before, even their county lieutenant was respectful to this person, where did they dare to stop it, but they said to the guard in their hearts to ask for more blessings.

Borrowing a step to speak these five words, it was a little uncomfortable to listen to the guard's ears, and his heart beat a drum, and he began to wonder if the master should want to lead himself into a dark corner, and then click with a knife.

Seeing that the person in front of him had no reaction, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a little impatient, and said it again in a loud voice.

The guard finally gave a reaction, and Ai Ai turned around, lowered his eyebrows and whispered, "Alas, this master, ...... just now"

"What just now, that's it, there's a lot of nonsense. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't have time to rub against this person, so he directly stretched out his hand and grabbed his shoulder, dragged it to the side, interrupted the guard's words, and stopped under the corner.

Seeing that the two of them walked not far, none of the remaining guards around them stopped them.

"Master, as the saying goes, those who don't know are not guilty, so you can let me go, master...... I have a ......" was dragged up directly by His Royal Highness the Prince, and the guards didn't care what they said at this time, they said whatever they wanted, and said in a crackling voice, and their mouths were quite sharp in a hurry.

"Alright, alright, stop, stop. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince couldn't take it anymore, and slammed his fist on the man's shoulder, and then roared loudly.

"Listen, now go and evacuate the people at the gate of the city, let them go to the side and line up, and soon a large group of people will leave the city, so as not to delay the time. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at the guard in front of him and said in a serious voice.

The reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is looking for this guard is because he was familiar with it before.

But after he said this, the guard was stupid, and stammered: "My lord, although you are a person next to the county commander, you can't be the master of this matter." ”

If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't seen County Lieutenant Tong around here before, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not have found this person and talked so much nonsense about him.

"What about the county lieutenant Tong?" asked His Royal Highness the Prince.

"Went to another city gate. Sure enough, the guard's answer was similar to His Royal Highness the Prince's expectations.

"Do you know the letter of the prefectural commander?" asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

After saying the words, this person shook his head, still as expected by His Royal Highness the Prince, Zhang Qianjian has only been in this city for a long time, and naturally he doesn't have the effort to let his Ling Xin even know a small guard, and it is estimated that no one knows this thing except for a limited number of cronies such as the head of Wu Zhu.

But now I can have a little more time, which is also the reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Wu Zhutou are separated.

Regardless of whether he recognized it or not, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still took out the letter of the county commander directly from his arms, and then spoke, and at the same time took out a piece of silver: "Look at this is the token of the county commander, all my actions represent the county commander, I will bear whatever happens, you go to evacuate the people at the city gate, this silver is also yours." ”

After a few words were quickly spoken, the guard glanced at Yinzi, and then thought of the person in front of him who was treated respectfully by the county lieutenant Tong, and gritted his teeth fiercely: "Okay, this is a small thing." As he spoke, he took the silver from His Royal Highness the Prince's hand and went to the city gate to evacuate the people.

And this situation naturally caused some opposition at the city gate, as well as the dissatisfaction of the people, the guards pushed on the master, and then didn't care, in short, whatever happened to the person behind him.

Just after the people were evacuated, the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the distance, and a long line of men and horses rushed to the city gate.

"Let's go, get on my horse and go out of town. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said to the four people around him, turned over his horse, and went out of the city, and Wu Zhutou led the crowd to follow, leaving a trail of smoke and dust at the gate of the city, and then restored the previous order.

Just after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left, the entire iron-making and forging workshop in Yulin County was lit with a blazing fire, and began to build weapons day and night for five consecutive days, just so that Yulin County could survive in the soldiers coming to the city ten days later.

Thousands of men and horses galloped all the way west, on the avenue outside the city, and a very strange scene was that these soldiers were holding hoes and other agricultural tools in their hands instead of weapons.

The first person was wearing a bright red robe and was blown by the strong wind, pursed his lips tightly, wore a black tortoiseshell pattern on his waist, and wore a long knife with a cold scabbard, and the four people who were one of the horse's heads behind him were dressed in black.

These five people were His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the four men in black, and thousands of people behind them were led by the head of the Wu Hunt and followed closely.

And until now, neither the four men in black nor the men led by the head of the martial arts have known what they are trying to do.

Although the four of them were told by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that they were going to dig a pit, they were still confused, and after the 'two' looked back before, and after seeing that the person behind him was holding a hoe and other things, they were even more puzzled, could it really be impossible to dig a pit?

'Two' is a little clever, after hearing that the adults said that they were going to dig a pit, they were still thinking that this 'pit' did not refer to the pit on the ground, but a strategy, but now they know that they are thinking about it.

Soon, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince estimated that he was ten miles out of the city, waved his hand to signal the people behind him to stop here, and then reined in his horse, stepped on the ground with his feet, and looked around in place, and the four men in black stood quietly behind His Highness, without saying a word.

Immediately after that, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince slowly pulled out the long knife on his waist behind his back under the attention of everyone, this knife also attracted the amazement of the four black-clothed people, it is worthy of being a weapon of innate masters, they have lived for half a lifetime, and they have never seen such a treasure knife.

And His Royal Highness the Prince's next move was even more puzzling to everyone, even the four people who had followed this adult for so many days didn't know what they were doing, only to see him holding the hilt of the knife, pointing the long knife obliquely to the ground, and then slowly raised it above his head and slashed downward.

The long knife was covered with His Royal Highness the Prince's Xuanyuan, shining with crimson light, and slashed into the ground in the shocked eyes of everyone.

A deep crack, starting from the feet of His Royal Highness the Prince, extended outward, this scene was the same as at the beginning, when the head of the martial arts was still a mountain bandit, on that mountain peak, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also shocked nearly a thousand mountain bandits.

So this scene is somewhat familiar in Wu Zhende's eyes, but even if he saw such a scene for the second time, Wu Zhende also deeply sighed at the power of the white young man in front of him, and the people who followed behind him, but the first time he saw it, it was difficult to hide his surprise in his eyes.

But in addition to being surprised, Wu Zhutou still didn't know what the white young man in front of him was going to do, was it just to show everyone?

After only one knife, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at the crack that extended out, nodded with satisfaction, and then straightened up and slowly put the knife into the sheath.

"Wu Zhutou!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at the crack in front of him and said suddenly.

"Humble in office. Wu Zhutou came back from his doubts, stepped forward and said.

"Quickly order his subordinates to dig a huge pit with a radius of thirty zhang and a depth of five zhang with this crack in half. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stretched out his finger and pointed to the crack in front of him, and opened his mouth to explain.

"Yes!" Wu Zhen De Keng agreed forcefully, without asking why, and then turned around to carry out the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

He knew that if he could have the order letter of the county magistrate, then this move must have its intentions, and he didn't need too much nonsense.

In less than a cup of tea, thousands of people, including Wu Zhende and the black-clothed foursome, all moved, and on this land, they were in full swing and sweating.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was playing the role of overseer, walking back and forth around this deep pit, which was relatively easy in the initial excavation, and soon the prototype of a deep pit with a radius of thirty zhang came out.

But the deeper you dig, the more difficult it is, often encountering huge mud and rocks, which seriously affects the progress of digging pits, and more than a dozen people, or even dozens of people, can work together to solve the boulders.

"I'll come. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walked to a boulder and said to the dozen or so people gathered around.

After the words were spoken, the people on the side walked to the other side with interest, and then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince carried Xuanyuan, turned his hand into a knife, and slashed three knives at the boulder in succession, and the click sounded, and the boulder shattered in response.

In the following time, most of these situations were caused by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince going to gravel, which greatly improved the progress of digging the pit.

An innate Xuanyuan master turned out to be a coolie running around rubble, which is estimated to be the first time in the entire history.

It was a little faster than the expected five days, and by two and a half days, more than half of the pit had been dug.

On the third day, the sound of galloping horses' hooves sounded again in the distance, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pressed the hilt of the knife with his hand and stared into the distance, although he still didn't know who was coming in the distance, but who else could come at this point in time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince already had a guess in his heart.

The figure of Zheng Xiuyong and Battalion Commander Zheng appeared in his sight, but there were not many people behind him, but there were only about a hundred people, and each of them was tied to a thick stack of spears on their horses.

In an instant, Battalion Commander Zheng stopped in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, turned over and dismounted, and said, "Bai Shaoxia, I am here to send you weapons in the city on the orders of the county commander. ”

"Well, Battalion Commander Zheng has worked hard, just let the soldiers pile up over there. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled and gestured to a place in the distance.

Hearing this, Zheng Xiuyong waved his hand to the subordinates behind him, and everyone began to unload the weapons on the horses, and piled them up there one by one.

The people who were holding the hoe high and then falling hard, sweating like rain, also saw the weapons brought by everyone here from a distance, and they were even more puzzled in their hearts, only the head of the martial arts and the four black-clothed people had a faint idea.

In the following more than a day, Battalion Commander Zheng sent a large number of weapons one after another, piled up next to the deep pit.

Another half a day passed, and the pit with a radius of 30 zhang and more than 5 zhang was finally completed, during which it was only a time of rest for two nights.

"Wu Catcher. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at the pit that had been completed, and called the head of the martial arts to his side again.

Wu Zhende wiped the sweat from his sideburns and walked to the side of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Command these weapons to be firmly planted at the bottom of the pit. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pointed to the pile of weapons like a hill on the side and said.

At this point, Wu Zhutou fully understood the thoughts of the county commander and Bai Shaoxia, and Wu Zhende learned from Zhang Qianjian's mouth when he was still a mountain bandit when he was just captured.

Another day passed, and after Camp Commander Zheng and the others brought a huge wooden plank again, this deep pit full of spears and iron weapons was only one step away from burying those monsters.

Thin planks were inserted into the upper layer of the pit, and then the earth was filled.

This pit of hope for the whole city has been completed, just waiting for the monsters to set foot on it......
