Seeing this, Qian Renjie breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately called his henchmen to come to him and instructed them one by one.

Among them, he focused on a few people to tie up Lord Qi and take good care of him.

However, just as Qian Renjie finished giving the order, an officer and soldier rushed in from outside, almost crawling in horror, and shouted loudly.

"Oh no!"

"The West City Gate is broken, and the enemy outside has attacked!!"

"What?!"

Everyone was shocked.

Qian Renjie suddenly looked up, and the officer and soldier who reported the news tripped over him and fell to the ground fiercely. But he couldn't care about himself, and continued to shout the news that made everyone's faces change suddenly.

Qian Renjie immediately made a decision and shouted: "Everyone obeys the order, except for some officers and soldiers stationed here, the others follow their own officers to the west of the isolation camp to block the enemy!" Don't let them rush into the quarantine camp and hurt the people! ”

……

The other side.

The prefect's mansion.

Du Bucan't help but be here, and he is negotiating with Governor Li.

"You don't have to take care of the outside of the city gate, the prefect only needs to take care of the inside of the city to ensure that there is no chaos among the people." Du couldn't help but take a pen and write quickly on the paper, and focused on drawing a few locations on the city defense map.

"These places, we must send more people to guard them."

Governor Li nodded again and again, propped up the table and said, "I understand." To tell the truth, this official is a person who was single-handedly pulled out by Lord Yi, and he should work for Lord Yi. On that day, Lord Yi secretly came to Jinling, and the official knew about it, and he also knew the purpose of Lord Yi, so he should fully cooperate to arrest all the old Chu relics in the city. ”

"It's a pity," Li Zhifu sighed, "I was originally catching turtles in an urn, but I didn't want these old Chu relics to be so cunning, so I secretly dug several tunnels in the city leading to the outside of the city, and escaped most of them through the tunnels." Otherwise, the matter would have been settled long ago. ”

Governor Li said, pointing to a few places on the map that Du couldn't help but circle.

It is the entrance where the tunnel is located.

Li Zhifu said: "Mr. Du, rest assured, this official has sent heavy troops to guard these places, once the rebels outside the city want to sneak into the city through the tunnel, the officers and soldiers will immediately wipe them out!" ”

This is almost something that can be done with his eyes closed, and Governor Li is very confident.

In the future, he will definitely add a strong stroke to his resume!

Maybe at the beginning of spring, he will be promoted and return to Beijing.

Du couldn't help but stare at the city defense map, and asked uneasily: "What about the isolation camp?" Is there enough troops over there? "There is Lin Xi in the isolation camp, and Du can't help but be a hundred and a thousand uneasy.

Governor Li swore and said: "Mr. Du, rest assured, the isolation camp is guarded by Xiao Qi who is promoted by this official, and he is quite loyal, which makes people feel at ease." ”

Du couldn't help but look at Governor Li suspiciously.

Is it?

Is this Governor Li's vision really okay?

He felt that the face of the surnamed Qi was not a good thing.

However, Brother Shen said that there are people in the isolation camp who can reassure him and will not let anything happen to the isolation camp. Since Brother Shen is relieved, presumably the quarantine camp is really safe.

It's just that...... Du couldn't help but think in his heart, how could he tell him about his sister-in-law in the isolation camp after seeing Brother Shen?

"Mr. Du."

Governor Li's voice pulled back Du Bu's attention.

Du couldn't help but look at Governor Li's mansion.

Governor Li pointed to the growing movement outside and asked worriedly; "Master Yi really thinks that we can ignore the people attacking the city outside the city? How do I think there are not many people besieging the city? Old Chu Rebellion ...... Are there so many people? ”

Du Bucan't: "Of course not." ”

Governor Li: "??? ”

Du couldn't help but calmly replied: "It's just the old Chu relics, how can it be possible to set off such a big storm." ”

Governor Li's eyelids jumped: "What do you mean?!" ”

Du couldn't help but look outside, and after a while, he wrote with a pen: "There are still 50,000 former Xuanwumen rebels. ”

Li Zhifu looked at these words, his hands trembled, and the pen with ink fell on the city defense map, blurring a large piece.

His mind went blank in disbelief, "This ...... This ...... How could it be ......"

Before he could finish the sentence, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Report ——!"

"Your Excellency, a letter has been sent from the quarantine camp!!"

Governor Li turned his head in a daze, completely unresponsive.

Du couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows, strode over to open the door, snatched the letter from the official's hand, opened it and looked at it, his face was difficult to look at.

He quickly went back and showed the letter to Governor Li, and after Governor Li finished reading it, a spirit instantly sobered up, and his face was difficult to look at.

The content of the letter is that there are internal thieves in the isolation camp, who want to open the city gate and collude with the rebels.

The isolation camp is the closest to the west city gate, and if the city gate is wide open, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Governor Li hurriedly went out and ordered, "Send half of the people sent by the official to those places to the quarantine camp!" ”

Before the words fell, someone outside ran in in a panic and shouted, "Oh no, no! The West Gate is broken! ”

Du couldn't help but look at Governor Li suddenly, and his face changed suddenly.

Governor Li rushed to the official and said angrily, "What did you say? Say it again! ”

The officer and soldier panicked: "We are guarding the city, and somehow, the city gate is opened!" Now the enemies outside have rushed in, and most of our brothers at the West Gate have been killed or wounded! ”

And Governor Li's mansion was like a thunderbolt from the sky, his body shook, and he roared: "Waste! Where are your eyes? The good city gate was opened by the thieves! What are you doing in a daze, you will go to the west of the city with your official to block the enemy! ”

The quarantine camp is far from most of the people in the city, and Governor Li can't imagine the consequences of the rebels entering the city!

Du at the door couldn't help but think of Lin Xilai, his face changed, and he rushed out.

……

Meanwhile.

In the isolation camp, the area near the West City Gate was already in flames.

News of the rebels' entry into the city spread quickly.

Especially when they saw the countless officers and soldiers flocking to the west of the city, and had no time to take care of them, the people were so frightened that they could no longer stay, and rushed out of their respective households and rushed to the other exits of the quarantine camp, just hoping to get as far away from the west as possible.

This time, they didn't even have time to pack their burdens, and even if the few remaining officers and soldiers tried their best to appease them, few of them listened.

Riots are on the verge of breaking out, and everyone is just running for their lives.

The chaos in the west soon spread to the east.

Lin Xi and Lin Yiling, who were staying in the medicine house, heard the abnormal movement outside, and had a bad premonition, so they opened the door and went out directly.

There were no officers and soldiers outside, and Lang Zhong and the sick rushed out of the medicine store, and the people on the street continued to flow, all flocking in the same direction.

"What's going on?"

Lin Xi and Lin Yiling glanced at each other, and grabbed a person nearby and asked.

The man's face turned red in a hurry: "Let go, I'm going to run for my life!" Now that the west gate has been breached, and the enemy outside has entered the city, it will not be long before this side will be hit! ”

"What? That's impossible! ”

Lin Xi was stunned as if he was slapped on the head.
