Chapter 70: In Zizhou City
In Zizhou City, the judge who had not slept all night was still frowning and studying the official documents.
"Sir, have something to eat."
A personal soldier put the tea and put it on the table, and the judge Su Ming nodded absent-mindedly.
"There are only a dozen people attacking Wuzhou?" asked Tong Gong casually.
The personal soldier was stunned and looked at the judge. Seeing that the other party was absent-minded, he knew that the other party was not asking him, but just sorting out his thoughts.
He put the plate away and turned to go out, but after thinking about it, he turned around and whispered: "Sir, when Wuzhou is attacked, we must also be careful, otherwise..."
When the magistrate Tong woke up at the beginning of his dream, he quickly ordered: "The order is to close the city gates, martial law is strictly in the city, all soldiers will cancel their leave, and the formation will go to the streets to patrol..."
However, as soon as he said this, he suddenly couldn't continue.
Because these actions are very similar to those taken by Wuzhou last night!
He couldn't help but sweat a coldly, glad that he woke up in time.
Then he instantly recalled the merchants he encountered last night with knives hiding under the car!
"Hurry, Yunlai Inn! Send troops to surround Yunlai Inn immediately. Don't let anyone escape. Send people to check the inn staff one by one, including the shopkeeper and the waiter!"
He issued an order nervously, and this was the first time he issued such a large order of action since he took office as the magistrate, and he felt a little nervous.
However, although he issued an order, he knew in his heart that it was already late at this moment. If the other party was really a black disciple, it would be impossible for him to know that his companion had attacked Wuzhou, and he was still waiting in the inn for others to arrest him.
Then it is very likely that the attack in Zizhou City is now a critical moment!
And for him, the most worrying thing is that the prefect of Zizhou was not in the city and had been attacked in Wuzhou, so in Zizhou... the one who is most likely to be attacked was actually himself?
When he thought of this, he could no longer sit still. He immediately overturned the order just now and said again: "No, cancel the previous order. Mobilize the soldiers, mobilize them as soon as possible to protect me in the government office! I am their first target!"
The personal soldiers had responded several times in this short few seconds, and finally looked at the magistrate. Seeing that there was no change this time, they turned around and went out to convey the order in a hurry.
Su Ming sat in the chair of the Grand Master, his mind was in chaos.
The prefect of Zizhou was seriously injured when attacked, and the prefect of Wuzhou was killed when attacked. It was just a few words in the news, but when this encounter was about to happen to him, he realized how terrible it contained!
As he expected, the black disciples in Zizhou City had already activated all the hidden stakes that Izumo Kingdom had long been buried through a night of dispersion and connection.
This time, they would launch all at all costs, and deal a heavy blow to Xu Guo!
This attack had been planned for many years, and was originally planned to start this year's harvest celebration in Xu Guo, but no one expected that Xu Guo would actually produce five realms of cultivators in a day!
That's not bad!
The three generals above the level of the Arc alone have already firmly pinched their ability to pass the mountain. Now these three generals have been promoted to the Yinyuan Realm, and there is even a Dongming Realm. How can you resist this?
If they don’t find a way as soon as possible, what they have to face is not the problem of how to invade Xu’s country, but how to resist Xu’s invasion of Out of Yun’s country!
Therefore, it was discovered that there were five cultivators above the Hidden Yuan Realm appeared in Xu State. The Izumo Empire Military Headquarters immediately launched this long-planned comprehensive attack!
This is an action to bypass marginal cities and create chaos directly in the core hinterland!
This time, a total of four teams were dispatched. In addition to the black squad that had been exposed in Yuyang Pass, the other three teams invaded three prosperous cities in Xu's territory with various identities, with the purpose of burning the war to the country of Xu!
In particular, the family of General Zhou Hongyi, the chosen target city is also among the family of General Zhou Hongyi of Xu. If he can capture or kill him in the chaos, the blow to Zhou Hongyi's mood will be unparalleled!
After dealing with Xu Guo for so many years, they have also understood some of the weaknesses of cultivators. One of them is that when they were just promoted, their realm was unstable. If they were severely emotionally impacted, they might fall into the realm instantly, even lower than before they were promoted!
At this time, the Black Squad in Zizhou City was responsible for such a task.
The reason why they did not launch an attack immediately was because they had to complete another task first, which was to search for Zhou Hongyi's family.
Unfortunately, after contacting the secret stake, I found out that Mrs. Zhou had already left Zizhou City two days ago.
This task is destined to be unable to be completed. Lin Xibei was a little unhappy when he confirmed this.
It seems that this mission is destined to be less beautiful than Lin Nan and the others!
"Bah, I'm so lucky. Both of the prefects ran to him... Let's go, we'll cut off this bird and magistrate, and burn the broken city as soon as possible!"
Lin Xibei took the black disciples out of the gathering place and walked towards the government office with a knife in his arms.
They didn't take this task too seriously. After all, the news of the secret stakes was very comprehensive. Zizhou City has been in a state of disrespect and military discipline for a long time. The most elite soldier captain was only a C-level, and ordinary soldiers had a large number of D-level, and even a rank of Wu-level.
In their opinion, such a rank is no different from ordinary people. Look at these people on the street. They are obviously holding steel knives in their hands, so they don’t run away, but they are still watching curiously, and there are young women trying to chat with each other.
"Brother, are you officers and soldiers? Where are you going?"
"Yes, brother, how is the progress of the case of the former prefect? Do you have any news? Let us disclose it!"
"Hehe, is Master Tong Gong..."
Lin Xibei was speechless, and wanted to slash these people away by wielding the knife, but was worried about alarming the enemy.
He was not afraid of the other party's resistance, mainly because if the judge was scared away, it would be very troublesome to catch him again.
So he casually spoke, heading towards the government office.
However, at this time, some soldiers had gradually gathered near the government office, and martial law was also imposed on the nearby streets, and the atmosphere was completely different from that outside the two or three streets.
Lin Xibei passed through several streets and finally discovered this, the relaxation in his eyes instantly turned into coldness.
"I'm ready, brothers, don't pretend anymore, go!"
Unlike Lin Dong and Lin Nan, he is not a captain who is good at using tricks. He almost exposed himself when he entered the city. Although his subordinates are careless, he is not rigorous enough in using tricks.
Seeing that the other party was ready, he simply didn't want to do this, and directly used what he was best at, wielding a scimitar and rushed towards the government office!
Chapter completed!
