Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Pressure Is Great

"What's going on outside?"

In the luxurious and extravagant bed, Yan Xu opened his eyes, pushed away the warm and smooth satin-like Mei Ji in his arms, quickly put on his clothes and walked outside.

The two maids at the door heard the movement and pushed the door in: "Childe." ”

"What's going on out there? ”

Originally, I thought that the assassin of the Liancheng Shui family was coming to make trouble again, but when he saw that it was broad daylight outside, Yan Xu quickly calmed down, and his tone slowed down.

The two maids looked at each other and shook their heads blankly:

"Back to the son, the slave doesn't know. ”

"Inform the Shadow Guard. ”

Yan Xu urged impatiently.

As soon as the words fell, the voice of the shadow guard came from outside: "Childe is a little safe, today the internal guard battalion has changed guards, and the new generals of the first battalion have made a bit of a fuss, but everything is fine, nothing serious." ”

"A new commander in the first battalion?"

Yan Xu stretched out his hands and motioned for the maid to change her clothes, with a little surprise on his face: "What about Nangong Shangcang?"

"Nangong is now the nominal deputy commander of the city defense army, which can be regarded as a high promotion. ”

Shadow Guard didn't show up.

"Interesting, who is this making way for? What is the identity of the new general of that battalion, and which clan is the old man?"

"This person ...... Childe should be familiar with it. ”

"Oh?"

Yan Xu was stunned.

"Meteor, Miss Yan Xiaoxiao's star slave. ”

"Is it him?!"

Yan Xu's suddenly raised tone because of the accident almost scared the two maids to their knees: "Continue to change clothes, tell me what's going on?"

Shadow Guard was a little helpless.

Although this fourth prince is very ambitious and is more interested in the Yan clan and the internal guard battalion, he is sometimes too obsessed with some playthings, and he will break at a critical time.

At that moment, the shadow guard had to tell Yan Xu what had happened in the Inner Guard Camp in the past few days.

Yan Xu's whole person was not good after hearing this.

After being taught a lesson by the second sister in the martial arts arena, I trained Meiji in the house for several days, but I didn't expect to miss such a wonderful link.

"Meteor actually became a battalion of generals, and he also has the ability to severely damage the assassin who assassinated Brother Yanyi, it's incredible!" Yan Xu said this, and his words changed: "Come on, prepare a salute immediately, my son wants to go to the city to meet this general." ”

......

The chickens and dogs in Yan Xu's Mansion began to collect and prepare gift lists, and many people from other families in Sifang City also woke up in their dreams.

One of them had a cold sweat on his forehead, his sword unsheathed, and he trembled at the door, his face full of fear and fear.

"Sir. ”

"Who!"

"It's me, master, Koharu. ”

"Koharu, what's going on outside, it's so noisy. ”

"I heard that it was the change of guard in the inner guard camp of the city, everyone ran out to see the excitement, master, do you want to prepare for you to wash and change clothes?"

The answer of the maid outside Xiaochun immediately relieved the middle-aged man in the room, and after his eyes were confused for a while, he sat on the edge of the bed, quietly returned the long sword to the sheath, and replied:

"Forget it, I'll rest again. ”

"Yes. ”

"By the way, you go to the city to see what's going on, the change of guard is so big. ”

"Yes, Koharu is going to see ......"

The maid outside was a little unexpectedly excited, and quickly ran out of Zhao's mansion and merged into the lively flow of people.

......

Although it is hard to go around the city, it is really a piece of cake for the people of the internal guard battalion, after all, it is not a problem to carry a thousand pounds, and it is a morning warm-up exercise;

Circling the city can also give all the guards a rough outline of the newly garrisoned Sifang City, which is more conducive to defense.

Meteor used his talent for subtlety to take a good look at the Sifang City, and basically knew it.

Sifang City has a population of 500,000, which is considered a big city, but in the past, it only relied on the garrison of 5,000 city defense troops, and it was inconceivable that it had confronted the Liancheng Shui family for decades.

In Meteor's opinion, the city needs at least 10,000 troops to barely adequate!

Now a battalion of only 1,000 men is stationed, which is a joke at all.

Fortunately, after the end of the siege, another team came, led by a shadow guard wearing a shadow guard helmet to cover his face, and he led a number of hunters and guards with a number of nearly two thousand, slightly stronger than ordinary people, all of them are the kind of internal guards in a battalion who can fight ten at a time, and can only be used to make up the numbers to stabilize people's hearts.

The treatment of these hunters and guards is much worse than that of the internal guards, and they are nailed to some relatively unimportant places at the head of the city in two shifts every day, and they eat and drink at the head of the city, and the tentative time is one month.

After understanding their duties, Meteor arranged for Jiang Feng and the other four hundred leaders to lead a team of people to be responsible for the order and orders of these people.

The most important area of the Sifang City is the four city gates, and Meteor has arranged a hundred-strong team in each of these locations, and he soon feels that the number of people on hand is a little insufficient...... Well, it's not enough.

Meteor rubbed his head, feeling that this kind of errand was really hard to do.

Compared with the defense of the internal guard battalion, the Sifang City is simply a big sieve full of holes, not to mention that the chakra realm powerhouse can enter the realm of no one, even if it is an ordinary mercenary assassin, he can easily climb over the wall and enter and exit with a snack.

But that's not the biggest headache.

When the internal guard battalion has nothing to do, it is cultivation, but when it comes to Sifang City, there is almost no chance of cultivation after being stationed for seven days, so it will undoubtedly reduce the cultivation entry and reduce the overall improvement speed of the internal guard battalion.

"How can this be?"

Meteor was secretly worried.

I feel more and more troubled after being promoted.

It's not easy to bring the team!

At this moment, Su Peng brought Zhang Jie over and said that Prince Yan Xu had brought a gift list to visit the house.

"Fourth Prince Yan?"

Meteor was stunned for a moment, and then smiled:

"People are still sitting in the house?"

"Well, I haven't left yet, I said I was waiting for you to go back and catch up. ”

Zhang Jie replied.

"Why are you so polite, you can just leave the gift list, and you still have to stay for dinner?" Meteor lost a joke, and Su Peng and Zhang Jie looked at each other.

"Bring a message to the fourth prince of Yan, just say that I took office for the first time today to change the guard, many affairs are still groping, there is no time to separate, change the guard another day, and then visit in person. ”

"Yes. ”

Zhang Jie turned and left.

Meteor continues to worry:

"Su Peng, you are here to keep an eye on me, and I will go find Lord Yanwei. ”

He really can't stand it, this kind of defense full of loopholes is simply unbearable, there is a huge shortage of manpower, and there will be chaos in Sifang City at any time.

After instructing Su Peng, Meteor rode his horse down the city and rode out of the city alone, wanting to run in the direction of the inner guard camp.

The moment he left the city, a middle-aged man dressed as a merchant in a brocade robe outside the city glanced vaguely at the back of the meteor, and a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes;

This person is Master Zhao, after learning that the new general of the first battalion is actually a very young boy, and the merchant also came to the city gate with two small servants.

It's just that unlike others, Master Zhao seems to have another purpose here.

The two little guys behind him received Master Zhao's gaze, exchanged sharp glances with each other, and quietly followed.
