Guo Qiao knew that the three letters he wrote for help would not be answered.

There is no army at all in the three counties of Xiajiang, Yongfeng and Xingan, and the three counties together have an armed force of 1,000 people at most, and more than 1,000 people want to come to the aid of Anfu, which is simply hitting a stone with an egg.

In addition, the two counties of Xiajiang and Xingan are not under the jurisdiction of Ji'an Prefecture, and if the two prefects want to send troops, they must first obtain the consent of the Linjiang prefect.

As for Yongfeng County, for the sake of colleagues, they may be willing to come to the rescue, but Yongfeng City has few soldiers, so it can be said that they have more than enough heart and not enough strength.

The reason why Guo Qiao sent his house slaves to deliver the letter was just to let the court know that he Guo Qiao was loyal to the court.

With these three letters for help, it can prove his determination to defend the county seat to the death, even if he is martyred in the end, the court will at least give his son a future and give his family an explanation.

Guo Qiao fought hard, and he sent almost all the forces defending the city out, hoping that tonight's robbery camp would achieve good results.

Guo Qiao thought very well in his heart, the anti-thief Mo asked from afar, the army set out from Yuanzhou to spare a big circle to capture Luling City, and now the thief army must be very tired.

Taking advantage of the thief army to attack the city tomorrow, he will kill him tonight, and if he is caught off guard, he will definitely win.

Yuan Tong, the commander of the guard, did not oppose Guo Qiao's opinion, and he also knew that defending the city was certain to die, and if he wanted to live, he had to fight with the thieves outside.

Yuan Tong led 800 warriors out of the city in the dark and stopped two hundred steps away from the anti-thief camp.

He carefully observed the situation of the anti-thief camp and found that only a dozen people were sent to guard the gate of the camp.

"What a godsend, brothers, copy the guys, get ready to do it!"

More than 800 people crawled forward under the leadership of Yuan Tong, and gradually, the distance to the gate of the camp became closer and closer.

One hundred and fifty paces, the rebels did not find anything unusual.

After a hundred paces, the rebels still did not notice that the enemy was approaching the camp in the dark night.

Yuan Tong climbed a distance of fifty steps further, and at this time, the situation in the camp of the rebel army could already be seen clearly.

There were only twelve soldiers standing guard at the gate of the camp, and looking at the inside of the camp, there was a tent a hundred paces away from the gate of the camp that was obviously larger than the others.

Yuan Tong immediately determined that the tent was the residence of the anti-thief king Mo Wen.

He whispered to the soldiers beside him, "Do you see the biggest tent?" ”

Seven or eight pro-soldiers squinted their eyes and glanced at them a few times, and nodded one after another: "I saw the general." ”

"After the battle will be in the camp, you don't care about those shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and follow me directly to the tent, then the anti-king Mo Wen must be sleeping in the tent, let's capture the thief first capture the king, and after taking the anti-queen, the other thieves are just a group of local chickens and dogs!"

When the soldiers heard this, they couldn't help but start to feel a little excited in their hearts, what a great merit it is to capture the anti-king, I am afraid that I will be rewarded with at least a dozen taels of silver, and then the official will be promoted to the third level!

Everyone was excited to think about it.

The pro-soldiers held their breath and waited for Yuan Tong's order.

After carefully observing for a while, Yuan Tong repeatedly made sure that there was no ambush in the camp, and immediately pulled out the long knife at his waist and shouted: "Brothers, the time has come to make meritorious contributions, kill me!" ”

"Kill!"

The 800 temporarily recruited Xiang Yong also burst out with 300 percent combat strength at this time, and rushed towards the camp with a roar waving the weapons in his hands.

When the twelve soldiers at the gate of the camp saw that a large army suddenly came out of the night, they were so frightened that they ran to the camp, and after a while they disappeared.

Yuan Tong ran away and shouted: "Don't care about those little minions, let me capture the anti-king!" ”

Fifty soldiers immediately followed Yuan Tong with knives and rushed towards the camp commander in the camp.

The group soon rushed into the tent, only to find that the camp was empty, except for two oil lamps.

"Not good!" Yuan Tong immediately realized that something was wrong.

As soon as he finished speaking, suddenly there was an earth-shattering shout behind him, Yuan Tong turned his head to look out, and was immediately stunned.

I saw that thousands of thieves suddenly appeared in the camp, and they cut down people when they saw them with weapons in their hands, and the hundreds of villagers they brought behind them were killed and defeated just after they engaged in the battle, and more than 100 people were killed and injured in an instant.

The remaining more than 600 people rushed to Yuan Tong's location in order to survive.

Just when Yuan Tong was shocked, suddenly the sky seemed to be illuminated, and he saw that there were thieves in all directions, east, west, north and south, and the thieves surrounded them in the center of the camp, like an iron bucket.

Yuan Tong realized at this time that he had been tricked.

"Middle-minded, middle-minded, brothers, if you want to kill me alive!"

Yuan Tong led the fifty soldiers around him to take the lead in the charge, but the number of thieves was too much, and they were killed after only a few dozen steps away.

Twenty or thirty of the fifty soldiers were killed in an instant, and the remaining twenty or so were almost all wounded.

The townspeople who rushed with him were even worse, and dozens of people were stabbed to death before they could meet the thieves, and the rest of the people didn't dare to move, so they could only shrink in the middle and tremble.

"General, there's a fire in the city!" A pro-soldier suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the county seat.

Yuan Tong looked up and found that there was really a fire in the county seat, and the city gate had been opened.

"Surrender and don't kill, put down your weapons, Rao Er won't die!" At this time, Mo Qian walked in from the camp gate and shouted.

Yuan Tong saw that Mo Qian was escorted by a group of soldiers and walked in, and immediately guessed Mo Qian's identity in his heart.

"You're the anti-Wang Mo asked, right?"

"It's me, Your Excellency is An Fuwei's commander Yuan Tong Yuan, right?" Mo Qian arched his hand.

Yuan Tong stared at Mo Qian and said coldly: "I have long heard that Yuan Zhou Mo Thief is only twenty years old, and when I saw it today, I believed that he was really worthy of being a hero and a young man." ”

"Thank you for the compliment, General Yuan, the county town has been captured by me by sending troops, and Guo Qiao, the county governor, has also been captured, I hope that General Yuan can understand the current affairs and surrender as soon as possible, so as not to add to the sword!"

Yuan Tong spat at the ground and immediately scolded: "Dog thief, don't use your rhetoric to deceive me into surrendering to you, my Yuan family has been loyal for generations, since Taizu founded the country, my ancestor followed Taizu to fight in the south and the north, you are a thief, where are you qualified to ask me to surrender!" ”

The rest of the pro-soldiers saw that their masters had expressed their attitudes, and at this time they also shouted in unison: "We swear not to surrender!" ”

Mo Qian didn't expect that a small Anfu County could produce such a loyal and courageous character.

"Since you are bent on death, then don't blame me for being ruthless, up!"

With a wave of Mo Qian's hand, Yi Dayong immediately swarmed up with two hundred soldiers, killing Yuan Tong and his own soldiers in an instant.

Yuan Tong was good at martial arts, and the rebels killed him at the cost of four people.

As soon as the general died, the remaining more than 800 villagers suddenly lost their backbone, and under the coercion of the rebels, they put down their weapons and knelt on the ground to beg for mercy.

Mo Qian didn't embarrass this group of villagers, but just imprisoned them first and waited for tomorrow dawn before making plans.

Mo Qian doesn't have to worry about cleaning the camp, Mo Qian has more important things to do.

He led the troops into the county seat of Anfu, and as soon as he entered the city, he saw Mo Yuanwu kneeling in the door with a person tied to him.

"Qian'er, uncle didn't disgrace you, the county magistrate was arrested by me!" As soon as Mo Yuanwu saw Mo Qian, he asked him for credit.

Mo Qian said with a smile: "Uncle did a good job, this time I will give you credit, oh yes, what happened to the fire in the city just now?" ”

"When the magistrate heard that we had entered the city, he wanted to set fire to the grain depot, but fortunately, I arrived in time with someone and worked together with the brothers to extinguish the fire."

"How much did you lose in the storehouse?"

"I didn't lose much, I only burned a dozen stones, and the rest were all intact, I looked at it, there were almost two or three thousand stones!"

Mo Qian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart when he heard this, the most important place in a county is the grain depot, and the first thing Mo Qian did every time he went to the city was to send someone to take over the grain depot immediately.

The food in the warehouse is all military food, and if you want to raise soldiers, food is definitely the most important material.

"Uncle did a very good job, when the battle is over, I will reward my uncle for meritorious deeds and give my uncle a promotion!"

As soon as Mo Yuanwu heard that he was going to be promoted, his mouth suddenly smiled crookedly.

After entering the rebel army for so long, he would be pointed at and laughed at by the people in the army every time he went out, and it was really a big shame to be embarrassed at the city gate last time.

Mo Yuanwu urgently needed to be in the army to restore his previous unbearable reputation.

"Qian'er, this is Guo Qiao of Nazhi County, who was captured by me, you see, what to do with him?" Mo Yuanwu stretched out his hand and pointed to Guo Qiaodao, who was tied like a dumpling.

Mo Qian glanced at Guo Qiao and saw that he was only thirty or forty years old, although his body was tied, but there was an expression of hatred on his face, and he didn't see any fear.

"Untie him and help him up!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers stepped forward to cut the rope with a knife, and were about to use their hands to help Guo Qiao, but they were thrown away by Guo Qiao.

After Guo Qiao was untied, he tidied up his clothes, straightened his hat again, and then looked at Mo Qian with a kind of squint, and asked coldly: "You are the anti-Wang Mo Wen?" ”

Mo Qian saw that he had an arrogant attitude and looked like he was not afraid of death, and he couldn't help but have some admiration for him in his heart.

"Lord Guo's death is approaching, and he is not afraid of it, admire!"

Guo Qiao snorted coldly and said: "Hmph, death is death, what is there to be afraid of, I died to martyr the country, and I will definitely leave a name in history, you lead troops to rebel against the imperial court, poison the people of western Jiangxi, and you will die without a place to be buried!" ”

"Hahahaha~~~" Mo Qian couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

This laugh made Guo Qiao suddenly feel a little overwhelmed, and the rest of the words in his mouth couldn't continue to scold.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I laugh at you for not distinguishing between right and wrong, and not distinguishing between good and evil."

"Why do I not distinguish between right and wrong, why do I not distinguish between good and evil?"

"Hmph, it's true that you said that I rebelled, but you said that I poisoned the people of western Jiangxi, it's really ridiculous, you go and ask those people, have I poisoned one of them since I started the army?"

"The king is benevolent and loves the people, loves soldiers like sons, never kills the people indiscriminately, and never robs the people of a stitch and a thread, you dog official, don't want to slander the reputation of my king!"
