Chapter 172 Queen Cai's Guard
Shanggu County, Juyang County.
The last rain in late autumn passed, and lanterns rose to the eaves on both sides of the street. Pedestrians wearing straw raincoats rushed out or entered the city before closing the city gate. The potholes on the road were splashed by footsteps, cow's hooves, and car shafts.
Juyang County is the capital of Shanggu County, and its scale is naturally much larger than that of ordinary county towns. However, since hundreds of thousands of people in Heishan moved in, they did not feel crowded. They preferred to arrange for a group of people to settle in the city. In addition, some built villages in the county and used for resettlement. Officials allocated land and allocated seeds of agricultural seeds, so that most of the people who moved in Heishan who came to the city were safe. When the autumn harvest was reached, in addition to giving the government a layer of grain, many families had enough food to survive the winter. What's more, they had received winter clothes when they moved in before, so they naturally smiled happily, traveling with people they knew, or going to the city to buy and sell some things, making the county town crowded and lively.
Some of these Black Mountain people who came and went to the city were used to the mountains and suddenly came to peaceful places. Some of them would cause trouble. It would take a long time to really adapt. In the noisy and lively cities, there were often heard shouting and scolding the officers, as well as scoundrels or stingy words, and few of them were used to it. After all, they were also warned when they came, exaggerating whether the surname was Zhang, but Gongsun.
The autumn sunset is magnificent, as if it is burning. The long and tall courtyard walls and majestic mansion gate give people a feeling of staying away. Those guarding the front yard gate were replaced by tall and strong soldiers with solemn faces. Through them, they walked into the inside through the closed door. Bells were hung on the eaves of the yards located on all sides. The originally majestic mansion occasionally blew, and the sound of pleasant sounds became a bit elegant. There were soldiers guarding the corners inside and outside. Under the corridor, there were often maids in the mansion walking by. After whispering, they chuckled and made a special vitality.
After crossing the long road and heading to the backyard, occasionally the sound of weapons colliding came to this side. The little maid who had just returned wanted to go there curiously, but was driven away by the soldiers guarding the crescent gate of the backyard. Xianghe pouted and stared at the other party cautiously, trying to scare away the soldiers who drove him away... Then, she gave up, but her eyes became weird. In the past, she was spoiled by the hostess, and she could enter and exit these courtyards at will, but today she was a ghost!
Her eyes turned, Xianghe knew there was a "secret passage". She turned around and ran around a house next to her, turned to the alleyway on the back, tiptoed to hold a small tree, stood on a half-height stone, and almost fell down. However, the little maid did not compromise and tried again, and then went up, put her toes and stretched her neck toward the wall.
"Madam...we are ready!"
While his vision was unfolding in front, he also heard a hoarse woman's voice again...
************************************************
Xianghe followed her curiosity and tried hard to find the source of the sound and climbed up the courtyard wall. In Juyang County, in the red dusk, a team of vendors transported several sheep and passed by the city gate soldiers. As usual, the day was about to end, there were fewer pedestrians in the streets in the city. The group of vendors did not encounter the crowd and walked straight through the street in front and walked around another noisy, dirty, and not so eye-catching street.
In front, Bai Luo, who was patrolling the street as usual, stopped him with his soldiers. Then some unpleasant disputes broke out. Both sides were tense, and Bai Luo and the head of the vendor almost started to fight. However, during the quarrel, some inexplicable words were mixed. Soon after, the two groups of people left.
In a certain tavern in Juyang County, the head of the vendor swaggered in. After the turn, it flashed into a hidden small room. The lights were dim and there were already people coming. Bai Luo was one of them, sitting faintly in the first place, and the rest, such as Bai Feng, Wu Lu, Liu Shi, Ku He, and Gui Gu, were listed on the table.
The vendor who came in was called Luoshi and then bowed to everyone.
"All people are all..."
"Everyone has come. In addition to Qingniujiao, Guo Daxian, Yu Digen, and the old brothers who died in Jizhou, all the people who can come have come. Some of them have followed Yu Du, the left lord and the chickens and dogs have ascended to heaven."
"Okay, since everyone has come, I will tell you about the situation." Bai Luo put out the lights and when the room was dark, he spoke: "General Zhang and other brothers in Heishan died in Jizhou, but Gongsun Zhi and his subordinates came back intact. Bai dared to guess that this person must have killed the general and wanted to annex us. Although we were poor in the mountains at the beginning, we also wanted women to have women, and we would not have to worry about food and drink. We were not in charge of it. How are you doing now? Gongsun Zhi pulled all the hearts of the people, but abandoned us and sent us away casually. Are you so willing?"
"Damn... I've had enough of this cowardly!" Someone gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. There was also a voice in his mouth: "Yes, if General Zhang was here, how could we do this? Today, Brother Bai sent news. I didn't say anything and took a group of brothers into the city."
"I have brought it too. Is one hundred people enough?"
"I'm more than two hundred"
"One hundred and fifty people..."
In the darkness, the sound of the lampstand gently knocking on the table was heard. Bai Luo held the candlestick and said quietly: "Enough, although we are not as powerful as before, there are always some people. Everyone gathered together, and there were only more than a thousand people. According to the old rules, we were in the dark, and after dark, we attacked Gongsun's mansion in one go, and killed one of them who caught them off guard and robbed Gongsun Zhi. No one dared to take action. Then we can get a vote in the city and go back to the mountains."
"Just do it..."
………
Dingding...
...Dingdingdingdingdingding...
The wind blew across the eaves of the house, and the copper bell made a light sound. Xianghe, who was cushioning her toes and stretched her neck, widened Shui Lingling's eyes and opened her mouth slightly, making no sound.
The vision expands from the front.
In the originally quiet courtyard, there were many weapons, and the red light reflected a dazzling light. Women, who were petite or strong, were wearing armor, bronze helmets, and stood with swords.
Under the eaves, a pregnant woman stood there holding a Han sword. The cool autumn wind swept over the black hair on her forehead and the dress embroidered with clouds rose and fell slightly.
The hem of the skirt swayed, the figure walked down the steps, the long skirt slid across the ground, and after a moment, her voice sounded in the wind.
"...... I had saved you out of danger, and I never thought that my sisters could carry their swords and weapons. Originally, we were all women, swords, guns, swords and halberds were too cruel to us, but the men went out to fight, and they took a breath for the Han people on the border, but in the city, some people felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of..."
The originally dignified and quiet body pulled out the white horse, waved under his arm, and the sword buzzed through the air, cutting off a corner of the wooden railing, rolled to the ground, and bounced out.
"...Our men are fighting in blood outside, but they want to have such dirty ideas behind their backs. They come out of Montenegro, and their husbands raise them and give them official positions. In the end, they treat their compatriots like this."
In the sight of the female soldiers, the delicate Cai Yan's voice suddenly rose, and she stood there strongly and cursed angrily: "What is the difference between them and the Xianbei people who harmed the Han people? It's just a group of rats who are narrow-minded and hide in the corner while their master is not stealing."
The sword swung in the air.
"Although there are county soldiers in the city, if you want to capture the other party, you must use the mansion as bait. Since the men are not at home, then we women will take up the weapons and fight with these jumping clowns..."
The sword fell down, and with a jingle, it stuck to the ground, and the last sound also fell.
"At the same time, we also tell the women in the city, and even women in the world, that is, in addition to men, we women can also bear it."
In the loud voice, the weapons were all stuck on the ground in the hands of a group of female soldiers, making a sound of bombardment, filled with solemn killing.
On the courtyard wall, Xianghe was so shocked that she couldn't stop talking.
"What awesome lady."
