In March of the twenty-fifth year of Taiping, spring.

The southwest town of Qingzhou is Hongpao City.

A group of White Elephant Tribesmen transported Duzhou spirits to the Laifu Inn in the city, and it was already evening, because they were White Elephant Clan, so the innkeeper kept them for the night according to the custom.

As night fell, a group of twenty people in the inn opened their eyes one after another and jumped out of bed. These 20 people were all covered with iron wires, walked lightly to the second and third floors of the inn in batches, used the wire to pry open the lock of the inn door, and after entering other people's rooms, they were all killed, regardless of men, women, and children. Even the bosses who were kind enough to keep them were not spared.

When the dark clouds covered the moon, there was no life in the Laifu Inn except for the twenty people gathered on the first floor.

The leader of these twenty people is Hekun's personal guard Chang'an Tart. An tart is tall and mighty, with a peculiar appearance, resembling a horse's face.

The White Elephant Clan acted simply and ruthlessly, but there was no such thing as a queue. An Tzu first took out a small axe and a pair of scissors that he got from the boss's room, and then the others also took out the sharp weapons they found in various rooms, mostly scissors.

An Tzu looked at the table full of sharp weapons, and gritted his teeth with hatred: "In the end, these people are always guarding against us." When we White Elephant Clan go to the city to do business, we can only take such a small number of people and goods every year, and we can't bring sharp weapons! This is obvious, and we are never treated as human beings. ”

A fat man said in a rough voice: "Boss, the boar tooth that my mother gave me to protect was also detained when she entered the city, wait for me to pay attention!"

"Rest assured. An Tzu said: "Wait a minute, kill these defenders of the city, and find them one by one." It's really not good, turn around and make meritorious service, let the leader reward you ten. “

"Yes!" the fat man's sudden voice startled many people, and several people made a small gesture to signal him to pay attention to the occasion.

An Tzu began to assign tasks, and some people even brought chairs over. An Tzu took the unfinished bottle of wine handed by the person next to him, poured the wine on the table, and then pulled out the dagger and fiddled with it.

Late at night, in the wine cellar of the inn, each person carried a large jar of wine, which was only slightly tied with a rope. The group did not enter or exit through the main entrance, but jumped out of their respective rooms. Most of these people are burly, but they are as light as a swallow, they are light rail, they carry such a big jar of wine, they run on the eaves, and they can basically make no sound, for these twenty people, He Kun has been hiding for a long time.

Upstairs in the red-robed city, there has been more than 20 years of stability, and many veterans in the city are sleeping. The twenty men stacked the towers and went up to five. When the bottle fell to the ground, the soldiers who were on the night watch woke up. The five people who came up gathered together, picked up and pulled out two scissors from their sleeves, and the scissors collided with each other, sparks appeared, and a raging fire broke out on the city tower.

The soldiers exclaimed and grabbed these five people, but unexpectedly, these spirits burned when they caught fire, and more than a dozen jars were thrown under the city, and suddenly the red-robed city was on fire. The five men who went up jumped out of the city in the flames, fell down the tower, more or less, and broke their thighs, and were already half ruined.

But there is no pain.

Because of the firelight, outside the originally calm red-robed city, swords and soldiers rose everywhere.

The one who led the charge, the prancing horse and whip, was the first to appear in everyone's field of vision.

The five men cheered: "It's the leader of Kazu!" Bows and arrows had already been shot from the city, and the three who were slow to climb were shot all over the body, while the other two who were lucky enough to hide under the city with their stumps were spared.

Seeing that the three of them died in front of him at once, Hezi gritted his teeth, turned over and took his bow, and shot an arrow at the already panicked castle tower. This arrow was full of power, and the unfortunate veteran was nailed to the wall and choked on the spot. Then, behind Katsuko, arrows were like locusts, and thousands of troops also appeared in everyone's field of vision, and the shouts were earth-shattering.

At this moment, the red-robed city gate slowly opened, and An Tzu's face was covered with blood, and he walked out with the heads of two soldiers who had to watch the city gate. Behind him, the dozen or so white elephant clansmen fought and retreated, and Hezi jumped into the city gate, with a big bow with sharp edges at both ends, and ruthlessly sealed his throat wherever he went.

The shouts of killing came and went, and the red-robed city suddenly became purgatory.

Hezi single-handedly came to the Governor's Mansion of the Red Robe City.

Outside the governor's mansion, a soldier was withdrawing, and then, a beautiful woman walked out with the governor Zhang Quan in tow. This woman's expression is resolute, and she is Chen Wu, the favorite concubine of this Zhang Quan.

Chen Wu pressed his hairpin against Zhang Quan's neck, and his maid Hong'er was already holding Zhang Quan's sword and protecting her.

Chen Wu wanted to go further, but at this time, no soldiers retreated.

Zhang Quan smiled: "I don't care who you are, let me go, you can leave." Chen Wu didn't speak, and there was a sudden noise in the group of soldiers, but it was at the lookout outside the general's mansion, and the two soldiers were thrown down by Hezi.

"They are not afraid of death!" Hezi shouted in a thick voice: "Zhang Quan, listen, I am Hezi, the general of the wind god of the White Elephant Clan! Our patriarch and Kun have explained to me before leaving, General Zhang Quan is the son-in-law of my White Elephant Clan, if you are willing to put down your weapons and take the initiative to surrender, you can ensure that you will be rich in the future, and you will have no worries about food and clothing!"

"What?" Zhang Quan frowned, it turned out that ten days ago, the daughter of this fruit merchant in Qingzhou City he met was a member of the White Elephant Clan.

Hezi smiled: "Don't be surprised Zhang Dudu, that fruit merchant is really from Qingzhou, but he just accepted a little benefit from us." Now that your city has been taken over by my White Elephant Clan, you might as well surrender as soon as possible to protect your wealth and prosperity!"

"Are you going to rebel?" Zhang Quan glared angrily, and Hezi didn't answer, bent his bow and arrows, pointed at Zhang Quan and asked, "Isn't it like that?"

"Okay, sure enough, the barbarians are all ungrateful villains!" Zhang Quan dared to say that he was playing, Chen Wu's golden hairpin immediately saw blood, and Zhang Quan smiled contemptuously: "If I give an order, you all have to die!"

The lookout where Katsuko was located had been circled.

At this moment, the street was filled with the screams of the people, and Hezi responded: "General Zhang Quan, it is understandable that the man is lustful. But if you want to sacrifice such a city of people because you are alone, even if it is the Heavenly King Lao Tzu, then you can't afford it!" Hezi amplified his voice as he said Heavenly King Lao Tzu.

Zhang Quan's trembling voice asked, "Do you want to slaughter the city?"

"These are all aliens in the eyes of my White Elephant Clan, not my race, why not?" Hezi was categorical, and Zhang Quan closed his eyes. He knew that the White Elephant people were cruel, so even if they were naturalized, they still didn't let them bring sharp weapons into the city. Zhang Quan really didn't expect that in this peaceful and prosperous world, the White Elephant Clan would actually rebel! When the soldiers and horses of Sanzhou crusade, the White Elephant Clan would definitely have no bones left.

Thinking that these soldiers and horses of themselves are not as good as a state of the White Elephant Clan, doing this useless resistance, but they have a good reputation, but they have to pay the people of the city. As soon as today passes, presumably the Qingzhou General's Mansion will also know, not worse than him.

So......

Zhang Quan ordered: "All soldiers, disarm and surrender to keep the people safe." ”
