"The news in the imperial capital says that Cangxu City is in chaos now. What the hell is going on?"

Yang Ji pondered for a moment and continued to ask.

"Can't you see?"

Hu Tieyan smiled bitterly and glanced around:

"The houses here have been badly damaged. Although Cangxu City was chaotic before, it had not yet reached this level. On the contrary, various business activities are still quite developed. There are still many merchants from all over the world. But now, a large number of merchants have fled, and the population of Cangxu City is now less than one-third of what it used to be. ”

"Moreover, although the barbarians would come to invade in the past, it was often only once in a long time. And it's usually in the middle of the night. Never before has it been completely dark. Moreover, the time is getting earlier and more frequent. ”

"I've heard that it's all related to an article in the Emperor's Master. It is said to have been written by a martial artist in Taiyuan Continent. Talking about how Cangxu City is going, it has led to this situation. ”

Hu Tieyan turned over the words before Yang Ji was still listening, but when he turned over the words, he heard Yang Ji and the Great Asura's hearts trembled.

"It's really a good thing that doesn't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles, and you haven't arrived yet, and they have already put the blame for Ann's incident on your head. That's not good news for you. ”

The Great Asura said with some concern.

"The soldiers will come to block, and the water will flood the earth. At least I'm still a guard. In Cangxu City, this is the highest official position. It doesn't affect me. ”

Yang Ji said lightly.

"It's for the best. But it's always a good idea to be mindful. The only good news now is that although they know about your article, they even know that he is from Taiyuan Continent. But I haven't been able to tie this thing to your name. ”

The Great Asura Path.

"Hmm. ”

Yang Ji nodded, knowing that he couldn't ask anything from Hu Tieyan's mouth, and waved his hand:

"You go down first. In addition, to help me pass the order, I will summon all the captains and captains of Cangxu City. and military attachés, large and small, to convene a town guard meeting. Tell them that all must arrive. ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand!"

At this time, Hu Tieyan's title to Yang Ji had already been called an honorific title. Turning around and walking towards the gate, he took a few steps. As if he had reached something, Hu Tieyan suddenly stopped.

"Anything else?"

Yang Ji stood in front of the hall and asked across a hundred generals' table.

"The barbarians are attacking frequently now, and after today, they will definitely come tomorrow. Cangxu City is now leaderless, and I hope that the adults can make every effort to govern the city, gather the garrison of Cangxu City, and establish a defense against the barbarians as soon as possible. This is the private words of the subordinates, and I hope it will be helpful to adults. ”

Hu Tieyan turned his head. After a salute, he said sincerely.

"Got it. You don't have to worry about that. I've got my own thoughts!"

Yang Ji said lightly, but his mind drifted to a place hundreds of miles away.

......

In the night, the stars were shining, and a group of barbarian fierce birds and air horsemen waved their wings, sweeping across the sky like meteors. Below the sky, there is a dense primeval jungle.

These jungles are overgrown with large trees and green vines. Different from any place in the Han Dynasty, each ancient tree here has seven or eight people hugging each one. It is hundreds of zhang high, and some can even reach thousands of zhang. The clouds are shining day after day, and the canopy of each tree is sprinkled, and the single tree becomes a forest, covering more than ten acres of square area, which is amazing.

And those green vines are verdant roots, spitting green leaves. Crawl everywhere in the jungle. These green vines are as small as a baby's fist arm, and as large as an adult's thigh, one by one, criss-crossed, shuttling through every place.

Green vines and thorns are tangled. This makes it difficult to walk through these jungle areas. It's hard for people to enter, let alone horses.

A group of barbarian ferocious birds flew over the primeval jungle, and no one noticed that there were four "poisonous giant bees" tracking all the way behind them.

"So this is the primeval jungle!"

Yang Ji's mind was in harmony with the poisonous giant bees at this time, and through the eyes of these giant bees, he secretly looked at this land of the first woman. In the wilderness, every leaf, every vine, and every tree reveals a strong breath of life.

This kind of life qi is rich and pure to the extreme, which is not found anywhere else in the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty's hunting for the wilderness failed, and these primeval jungles with tenacious vitality took great credit.

"Whew!—"

There was a screaming sound of a fierce bird in front of him, and Yang Ji sped up his speed and controlled the four poisonous giant bees to follow cautiously. There is a trick in the art of war called "Wanting to Capture the Past", Yang Ji's poisonous giant bee was released from Cangxu City, and he never appeared, but followed behind, tracking all the way, and finally arrived at the wild primeval jungle.

"Fight snakes and fight seven inches", if you want to deal with the barbarians, you must find out the source of these empty horses, as well as their habitat, and the place of convergence.

This is also the reason why Yang Ji did not send a poisonous giant bee to alarm them.

"Gollum ......"

There was a rush of voices ahead, as if the barbarian warriors were communicating something. Soon, the original team of hundreds of empty horsemen suddenly split into two and flew in two different directions.

Yang Ji hesitated for a moment, quickly divided the bee colony into two teams, and flew forward with the two teams.

Continuing on, after a while, the barbarian air rider team was divided into groups again, from two to four, to four. Yang Ji once again divided two giant bees, each following a team.

Moving on, the team became eight.

Yang Ji hesitated for a moment, and could only choose four of them, and followed those four teams until he reached these barbarian tribes deep in the jungle.

After reconnoitering the location of these barbarian tribes, Yang Ji quickly regained his mind, leaving only a few giant bees to lurk, guard, and probe nearby.

......

The sun rises and the moon sets, and the night passes quickly.

The news of the emergence of a new city guard in Cangxu City grew wings and quickly flew out. According to the usual practice, Yang Ji was supposed to be in the town guard mansion to check the military attachés of the garrison.

However, from sunrise to sunset, from sunrise to midday...... , Even the lunch time has passed, except for the two small lieutenants, the town guard mansion of Youda is deserted, and none of them have reported to duty!

A group of armor soldiers in the main office of the mansion lined up on both sides, bowing their heads and saying nothing. Although no one said anything, the embarrassment could be felt by anyone.

Even a person with an indifferent heart like the Ghost Pill Master felt embarrassed. From time to time, he looked at Yang Ji on the stage, and stopped talking.

On the first day of taking office, there was such a thing of listening to propaganda and not listening to tune, which was definitely a great blow to the prestige of Yang Ji, the town guard.

knew that the situation in Cangxu City was tricky, but Yang Ji didn't expect that it would be such a tricky trick!

Now, the armorers on the left and right can't stand still, and they think about it and want to slip away.

"Bang!"

Yang Ji rarely lost his temper, but when he waited until three o'clock in the day, he finally couldn't help but be shocked and fiercely slammed on the table. Even the table almost broke off:

"Where's Hu Tieyan, call Hu Tieyan over!"

Hu Tieyan came quickly, and arrived at the town guard mansion after only a while. Layers of sweat beads on his forehead, looking tired and running, it seems that he has been running just now.

The atmosphere in the town guard mansion was very wrong, and Hu Tieyan felt wrong as soon as he came in. He also knew what was going on, lowered his head, and didn't even dare to lift it.

"Hey!"

Seeing Hu Tieyan, who was dressed in black armor, Yang Ji quieted down, and the anger in his heart was not so strong. He originally had a knife on the surface and a knife on the back, which was contrary to his own yang and yin, but he actually dared to appear, and he knew that he was wrong, which means that things are not as he imagined.

"Let me ask you, has everything I asked you to pass on yesterday arrived?"

Yang Jidao. This is the first suspicion.

The law of the Han Dynasty, among a city, the right to guard is the greatest. Especially in the border areas, the political power and the military power are one.

As the guard of Cangxu City, he has the power to control all the soldiers and horses of Cangxu City. Anyone must obey his orders.

"Lord Hui, my subordinates have arrived. After yesterday, his subordinates sent a soldier to give orders to various urban districts. The subordinates can guarantee that the entire city should know the news of the town guard's appointment. ”

Hu Tieyan was sweating profusely, even when he faced the barbarian air cavalry yesterday, he had never been so embarrassed or in a hurry. He usually asks himself with a clear conscience, but this matter is obviously a mess of him.

"Didn't they get it?"

Yang Ji didn't believe it.

"This, the rank of the subordinate is not enough to control all the captains, so I don't know what you all the captains think. But the news of the subordinates did arrive. ”

Hu Tieyan said sincerely.

Yang Ji was silent for a moment. There are three orders in the rank of captain, Hu Tieyan is only the lowest first-order captain, and above him there are second-order and third-order high-ranking captains.

In the border war zones, all the titles were one level higher than in the interior. Hu Tieyan still has a few heads above him, and he not only can't control the top, but has to be restrained by the top.

The military orders were like a mountain, and he summoned the repentant military attachés in the name of the new town guard, but no one listened to the announcement, and none of them listened to the order. This is something that Yang Ji hadn't thought of before.

"If you go outside, you must first settle inside", so the barbarians have to deal with it. But the top priority, the first thing to do, I'm afraid is to unite the three thousand unruly leaders in Cangxu City, and fuse these scattered forces into a mess, and then have the strength to deal with the barbarians.

"Who's the biggest rank here?"

Yang Ji asked suddenly.

"Zhang Yiyan, Lord Zhang!"

Hu Tieyan replied subconsciously, as soon as the words came out, his whole body trembled, and he suddenly understood. There was chaos in Cangxu City, and this didn't start from the hands of this Lord Yang in front of him.

The best way to deal with this chaotic situation is to cut through the mess quickly. For Yang Ji, the best way to "cut the mess" is to "kill chickens and make an example of monkeys".
