Chapter 256: Forced composure
Lin Xiqi hoped that the opponent's master could come over, so that he might be able to find a chance to try the opponent's strength, and if there was a chance, he wouldn't mind directly obliterating the opponent.
Now there are more people in the rivers and lakes to defend the city, but after all, they are still at a disadvantage, so they need to rely on other means to weaken the strength of the Tartar army.
The death of the master can definitely affect the rhythm and morale of the Tartar army attacking the city.
The invasion of the border by the Later Yuan army would not last long, and they would have to withdraw even if they did not want to.
A torch was lit every few steps on the city wall, illuminating the head of the city so that it could be seen clearly even within a few feet of the city wall, in order to prevent the Tartars from attacking at night.
Patrolling officers and soldiers patrolled the city from time to time.
But even so, a figure quickly approached the city wall, and then its body jumped up violently, and after landing on the city wall, a dodge disappeared into the city, and no one noticed it.
For masters, there are still holes in such defense.
After this man rushed into the city, he rushed directly to the position of the county government as soon as he discerned the direction for a moment.
This person is none other than Haji, and the target of his infiltration into the city is Lin Xiqi and some other masters.
According to his idea, he just wants to put some important people in Sandao County in one pot.
Without these people, Sandao County can be broken at hand.
For the sake of Sandao County, his army suffered nearly 20,000 casualties, which was completely unexpected.
If some means are not taken, even if the city can be captured in the end, the casualties will have to increase.
Such a loss is not what they want to see.
After infiltrating the county office, Haji easily found a government official and forced Lin Xiqi to ask for his location, and then turned out to be a government officer.
He soon reached the outside of the study, and saw that the candle in the study was still on, and there was a figure inside.
Obviously, Lin Fu, the magistrate of Sandao County, is still here, and the official didn't lie to himself.
With a wave of his hand, the door to the study opened silently, and he entered the study.
When he entered, he found a young boy sitting at the desk, writing hard, and he didn't know what he was writing.
Looking at the way he looked, he didn't even notice his arrival.
Also, a master like himself is too strong, how can ordinary people find out.
'Ahem,' Haji coughed softly.
This coughing sound woke up Lin Xiqi, he looked up, and after seeing Haji, his face showed surprise, and after seeing Haji's dress, a trace of horror flashed in his eyes.
Haji had been paying attention to Lin Xiqi's changes, and these changes did not escape his observation.
For Lin Xiqi's reaction, he was very satisfied.
"Lord Lin, you have to take care of your body after working so hard day and night. Haji casually sat down on a chair next to him and said with a faint smile.
Lin Xiqi's brows furrowed slightly: "What do you want?" ”
"Haha, no hurry, no hurry. Haji laughed and said, "I want to have a good look at you, the young magistrate, now it seems that you really have some ability, seeing the old man calm down so quickly, knowing that the old man is coming to take your life, you can still be so calm, at your age, it is not easy." ”
"It can be seen that you are a master, in front of you, no matter how this official is, it probably won't be of much use, so it's better to be calm. Lin Xiqi said.
"You can understand it, I heard that there are some masters under you, and the old man is a little curious. Haji asked.
"Huh?" Lin Xiqi stared at Haji with some surprise.
"Don't be surprised, you can call them over, and maybe save your life. Haji laughed.
Lin Xiqi was silent for a moment, and then laughed and said, "I see, do you want to wipe us out?
"It's not up to you to say it. Haji said, "The old man has the final say. The old man is giving you a chance now and letting you inform your subordinates, the old man wants to see how many people dare to attack the head catcher of my Houyuan camp and the hundred households who almost took their lives in Huyeli, as well as those tiger list masters. ”
"Aren't you afraid of dying here?" asked Lin Xiqi.
"Dead?" Haji shook his head and said, "The old man has never thought of this word, in your eyes, those of your subordinates are masters, and there are even masters of the tiger list, but in the eyes of the old man, it is not worth mentioning." ”
"Okay, you brought it on yourself, don't regret it then. Lin Xiqi stood up and said.
"Regrets? It's absolutely impossible. Haji said, "Call someone." ”
"They're in the backyard, do you have the courage to go with the official?" Lin Xiqi stared at Haji.
"Radical?" Haji also got up and said, "Okay, the old man will go with you and see what tricks you have." ”
Lin Xiqi snorted coldly and walked out of the study directly.
Lin Xiqi's performance surprised Haji a little, but in his opinion, it was probably this kid who forced his composure.
Or maybe he thinks his men can save him.
It's ridiculous, if I'm not sure, I'll come here?
When Haji followed Lin Xiqi to the backyard of the county government, he was also carefully paying attention to the surrounding situation.
Even if he doesn't look down on Lin Xiqi and the so-called masters here, he still doesn't have any carelessness in his heart.
This is the instinct of a master, many people are careless, often lose their lives in a daze, such a lesson is not too much, it can not be said that it is not profound.
"There's nothing wrong with that. Haji found that there was no situation around, and there were no formation traps.
As the two walked along, they soon reached a pool in the backyard.
The pool is not large, covering an area of five or six zhang, and it is a water feature in the garden of the backyard of the county government.
After the two daughters of the Su family came, they raised some fish here, planted some lotus flowers, and planted flowers and trees in other places in the backyard, and they took care of it in an orderly manner.
"I don't know what you call it, what is your position in Hou Yuan?" Lin Xiqi suddenly stopped by the pool, turned around and asked Haji behind him.
When Haji heard Lin Xiqi ask, he couldn't help but say: "It's okay, before you die, the old man will let you know who died at whose hands, the old man Haji is just an old man who walked with the army." ”
"Haji?" Lin Xiqi thought for a while, "I really haven't heard of it, it seems that he is an unknown person." ”
Lin Xiqi's words made Haji's face sink.
He didn't say his identity, it was humbling, but Lin Xiqi said so, it was humiliating himself.
"What a bold man. But the old man doesn't have to worry about anything with a junior or a dying person. Haji said to himself.
Just when Haji was thinking about this, Lin Xiqi suddenly pointed around and said: "The flowers here are blooming well, there is water, rockeries, pavilions and corridors, the back garden of the official is okay, right?"
Haji frowned, Lin Xiqi's words made him a little confused.
