In the east city of Shenmu Fort, the soldiers guarding the city in front of the gate pushed open the thick city gate. As a front-line important town on Shenmu East Road, Shenmu Fort also has two city walls, inner and outer city walls, but unlike Shenmu County, the two city walls inside and outer city walls are only a few dozen steps apart, and are purely used for defense.

However, in the past ten years, Shenmu East Road was generally peaceful, and Hetao Mongolian attacked the border several times but made small fuss. In recent years, Luotuo City often sent troops to fight Huo Luochi, killing tricks, Mengshikeli and other troops complained.

In addition to Qianhu, Shenmu Fort originally had military soldiers and generals who were in charge of the camp, but later they were all cut off, which made Xu Tong, the Qianhu, the Qianhu, the local snake of Shenmu Fort. In the past, the guards of the city must have been the elite rotation, but now they have become those who are not favored by Xu Tong and are driven to defend the city.

At this time, the sky was just dawn. Although the city gate was open, there were not many pedestrians. The soldiers at the gate and on the city wall were yawning and sleepy. This guarding the city gate was a chore. Although they could also blackmail the money from the people entering and leaving the city, the big head was still taken away by the above, and the rest was only for them to buy some bad wine and get drunk, and just live by the way.

The spring cold was steep, and in the cold wind in the morning, the rapid sound of horse hooves seemed particularly harsh. Even if the soldiers on the city wall were dull, when the sound of horse hooves became more and more rapid, they all saw the direction of the official road, and two groups of horses, one in front and one behind, were approaching the city gate quickly.

There were only three knights in front, all of whom were pressing against the horse's back. The horse team behind seemed to be pursuers, with nearly twenty horses, shouting something from afar, and it was hard to hear clearly when echoing in the wind.

The city guard officer who was awakened by his soldiers, did not even cover his armor at this time, and hurriedly ran up the city wall, "Close the city gate, close the city gate!"

Hearing the shouts of the chief flag officer, the soldiers below quickly pushed up the city gate. At this time, who would care about the origin of the three cavalry who were chased in front of him? Anyway, once the city gate is closed, it is not their business. Let the people come to fight to death outside the city. At worst, they will go out to collect a body.

Seeing the city gate in front slowly closing, Shan Ying, who was lying on the horse's back, could not help but curse. There were only a dozen cavalrymen behind him, guarding the important towns in the border area. Not to mention sending cavalry out of the city to stop and find out the situation, but at least they were just showing troops in front of the city gate. It was embarrassing to close the city gate from a distance.

Facing the extremely timid city guard at the city gate, Shan Ying could only whip the horse quickly and even stab the horse. The pain made the horse under his crotch run out like a sharp arrow, and opened the distance from the horse team that had gradually slowed down the horse speed behind him.

On the city wall, the President Zhang finally had some brains when he saw this scene. Although he still asked people to continue to close the city gate, he was not locked up to death, because the horse team chasing behind him looked like bandits.

When Shan Ying was riding a horse and approaching the city gate, she deliberately pulled the reins of the horse. The horse's legs were weak under her crotch, and she kneeled down her front legs as if she was exhausted. She fell down from the horse like a rolling gourd. After lifting up a large area of ​​dust, she stumbled up from the ground and shouted to the city wall in front, "Open the city gate quickly. I am a hundred households Shan Ying, and I have important military information to report to the Thousand households!"

Shan Ying staggered forward, yelling loudly while tearing her throat, holding Baihu's waist sign in her hand. The two confidants behind him also fell from the horse as if they were like this, then drew their swords in their hands and shouted, "Protect Master!"

Although Wang Dou and others who slowed down in the rear still drove their horses to approach the city wall, they all raised their bows and shot arrows at Shan Ying and the other two. They saw Mr. Zhang on the city wall in the distance, and brows jumped. It has been so many years since then. He could not have imagined that there were indeed bandits who dared to intercept and kill the military officers of the court, and even chased them to the front of Shenmu Fort.

Sitting upright on the horse's back, Yang Dayan pulled his strong bow open. He ranked third in the Hekou Fort. Except for the second brother and coach Cheng, no one was more accurate than him. In addition, Shan Ying ran forward blankly without any concealment. If he still missed, he would write his name upside down.

On the city wall, after seeing Shan Ying's official robe, Zhang Zhengqi had already called his soldiers to open the city gate to respond. If this family died in front of the city gate, he would definitely not be able to fall. What's more, this guy was shouting that there were important military information to report to Lord Qianhu. There were dozens of soldiers at the city gate, and there were many people and eyes, so he could not suppress this matter.

Shan Ying looked at the open city gate and suddenly felt a cold waist, then she fell to the ground, her eyes turned black. When she fainted, the last thought that flashed through her mind was that Yang Big Eye should have taken the opportunity to kill him.

Shan Ying fell so scared that the general flag on the city was gone. Wang Dou in the distance also looked at Yang Dayan who had lowered his bow and strangled the horse, unable to help but say, "Big-eyed thief, your arrow won't give someone..."

"Hmph, I can't die. Isn't Xu Laogou suspicious by nature? I'm just for the sake of foolproof."

Yang Dayan felt a little weak, but he still pretended to be calm and said coldly, then he said to Wang Dou, "It's time to leave."

Mr. Zhang had already stepped down from the city. At this time, the bandits in the distance had already pulled their horses away. They saw Shan Ying, who was lifted up by his soldiers. They saw a feathered arrow behind the hundred households. I don’t know if there was any help. He snored his breath and was as angry as a slept, so he dared not be negligent. He quickly directed his soldiers to carry Shan Ying to Qianhu.

Before Shan Ying could reach the Qianhu Office, Xu Tong had already received the report. He almost immediately asked his subordinates to invite several doctors from Shenmu Fort to come over. He knew that Shan Ying and the others were joining forces to deal with Gao Jin's child. Now Shan Ying was chased and almost ran to Shenmu Fort alone, which made him beat his heart. Is Gao Jin crazy? He really has the courage to kill the imperial officials without permission.

Half an hour later, Xu Tong saw the doctor who took out the arrow for Shan Ying, and couldn't help but go forward and said, "Doctor Fang, how is the injury of Shan Baihu?"

"Dan Baihu was seriously injured, and the arrow on the vest almost penetrated his heart. I just took the arrow for him. Whether this Duan Baihu can wake up depends on God."

Doctor Fang said with lingering fear that he had never seen such a tenacious person. If it were an ordinary person, he would have been injured by the knife and arrow. I am afraid that his life would have been gone long ago and he would not be able to save him at all.

Xu Tong's face suddenly sank. The two servants who escaped with Shan Ying were also seriously injured. He had asked just now, but the two of them only said that they were defeated by Gao Jin's troops in Fengzigou, and protected Shan Ying from escaping from the chaos. As for what happened, they didn't know.

"You are here. Once the single household wakes up, report it to me immediately."

Xu Tong was in a bad mood. Shan Ying and the others were elite servants of nine hundred households, more than one hundred soldiers, and even in Shenmu Castle, they couldn't get so many. How dare Gao Jin and how could he kill Shan Ying and the others so hard that they could kill Shan Ying and the others. Thinking of the eight hundred households except Shan Ying, Xu Tong's eyelids jumped up.

Such a big incident happened to Shenmu Castle, and he, the thousand-household family, was probably to blame. Gao Jin was about to die, so he had to be buried with him. Thinking of this, Xu Tong's face became ferocious and distorted, and various thoughts frantically turned around in his mind.

After several hours, Shan Ying finally survived. When he woke up, Xu Tong rushed over almost immediately.

"grown ups……"

Shan Ying's face was pale and her voice was extremely weak. Looking at him as if he was dead at any time, Xu Tong was anxious to know what was going on in Fengzigou, so he could only suppress it and said, "Danbaihu, don't talk first."

The callee Doctor Fang took the pulse for Shan Ying and went to Xu's passage. "Although Shan Baihu has no life worries for the time being, his body is extremely weak. I asked the back kitchen to replenish blood and vitality to replenish the porridge I prepared for Shan Baihu..."

After taking the medicine porridge, Shan Ying fell asleep again and didn't wake up until the night. Doctor Fang took his pulse and nodded to Xu Tong, "Sir, ask if you have anything to say. Remember not to take too long."

After Doctor Fang left, Xu Tong sat in front of Shan Ying. For most of the day, he had already thought clearly that if he wanted to take himself out, Gao Jin must have colluded with the Tartars and planned to rebel. Then, as a witness, Shan Ying would never die.

"What happened in Fengzigou, Shanbaihu?"

Looking at the dim lights, the panic deep in Xu Tong's eyes, the weak Shan Ying was filled with joy. The more the old dog was, the more he could make him make a mistake, so he started to speak with hoarse throat.

Xu Tong did not expect that Gao Jin's troops were far beyond his expectations. His horse team had all the infantry, cavalry and firearms. After arriving in Fengzigou, when they negotiated with Shan Ying and others, they turned against each other and took the opportunity to escape from the battlefield by relying on Hu Yanping's life. But even so, they did not expect that Gao Jin would collude with the bandits in Motianling. As a result, Yang Chun and the other two died tragically on the spot. Only Shan Ying finally escaped to Shenmu Fort. If he hadn't been alive enough, he wouldn't have survived.

"You said that Gao Jin and the bandits in Motianling colluded?"

Xu Tong asked in a deep voice. What he wanted to give Gao Jinan was a serious crime of colluding with the Tartars and plotting rebellion, but this collusion with the Tartars really couldn't stand scrutiny, but the bandits in Motianling are now real. They just need to have better excuses to push forward with the rebellion.

"Sir, the bandits in Motianling are the remnants of the White Lotus Sect. When their subordinates fought with them, they heard them shouting "Wusheng Lao Mother, with endless magic power, bless me with golden body, and invulnerable swords and guns!" Then they sacrificed their lives and were like crazy."

Shan Ying's words made Xu Tong's frown relax, yes! The White Lotus Sect is a natural thief. Gao Jin actually colluded with the White Lotus Sect. Is there any reason to rebel? Gao Jin must also be a thief who believes in the White Lotus Sect and burns incense to worship his mother!

"Single hundred households, you should take good care of your injuries. Gao Jin's thief was crazy and colluded with the White Lotus Sect and intended to rebel. I will report to the court to kill his three clans, so that no chickens and dogs can be left at the Hekou Fort."

After hearing Xu Tong's words, Shan Ying knew that the first step was done. The next step was to instigate Xu Tong to lead his troops out of the city to Motianling. At that time, whether the high-ranking master captured him alive or killed Xu Tong directly, it would be much easier to forge evidence next.

"Sir, although we were wiped out at that time, Gao Jin's thief was not much better. Now he has only less than two hundred remaining soldiers left by his side. And from the perspective of his subordinates, the thief seems to be in a bad relationship with the bandits in Motianling. If he can take this opportunity to wipe out the bandits and the bandits in Bailian Sect..."

Looking at Shan Ying with an excited expression, Xu Tong fell into deep thought. Shan Ying said it was not unreasonable. After all, he was an elite servant of nine hundred households and more than one hundred soldiers. It was a good idea to fight with Gao Jin to lose both sides. As for the bandits of the White Lotus Sect, they were even more unfaithful and unfaithful. Seeing that Gao Jin was weak, it was not uncommon to become popular and defeat him.

Shan Ying is really a person with a weak nature. He only wants to make merits and promote merits, so he didn't mention the merits of Hu Yanping and others who died in battle. However, if he can be promoted to commander for the rebellion, his subordinates will need a hawk like Shan Ying! Xu Tong thought about this, and there was a smile on his face. What's the use of Gao Jin's boy? He is too young and has some strength too rampant. This is also good. Killing Gao Jin will prevent him from worrying about one day when the thief who was in the General's Mansion would replace him.

"I remember your contributions in my heart, and I will not treat you badly at that time."
