The hundred-family Qiao Shan family was trustworthy. In the past two years, the chief of the royal family, who was originally in charge, had been kept in vain. The internal officials were investigated and arrested, which made the officials and people in Ziyang City breathe a sigh of relief. The royal family was too fierce and domineering. During this period, the main person who came out to do business was Qiao Shan. Qiao Shan changed his previous arrogance and left three-point room for trouble and could calm down his mind to do things.

This made Ziyang feel great about Qiao Shan, and everyone felt that this person was reliable. Seeing him leading the people from the Prince of Lu’s Mansion to the city, those who knew the roots felt at ease.

The city walls and city defenses of Ziyang City are comparable to those of Shandong and Jinan, and there are even more people. People are above the strong city and are covered by heavy city defenses. They are full of confidence and uneasiness are also diluted.

There were people looking into the distance from the city wall and the city tower. According to the horses sent by Ziyang City, the refugee brigade had already headed north and rushed towards this side.

Suddenly, the sound of the gong sounded, and it was in the direction of the city. Everyone on the top of the city turned around and looked over. A smoke column was rising in one place, but the smoke column quickly faded and the sound of the gong gradually stopped.

"These monsters killed by Thousand Swords never end every day. How much will it take to harm to be considered?"

"It's a good thing that the royal palace and the government are keeping a close eye on it. The water club has added three times the reward and prepared all day long, otherwise these thieves will take advantage of the loopholes."

There were constant curses on the top of the city. Since Jining fell and Ziyang City arrested hundreds of incense-smelling scholars lurking in the city, chaos has continued day and night. From time to time, fish that leaked the net set fires and poisoned them in the well. If the officers and soldiers were not watching the thieves, the city would be in chaos first.

"Dear brothers and fellow villagers, those who are seeking help have already arrived in the provincial capital and capital. The court is about to send a large army to rescue them. Those thieves can only be destroyed." Qiao Shan shouted loudly. He was a military general in the court, so he naturally knew when the reinforcements would arrive, but in this situation, he could only keep encouraging everyone.

Hearing him say this, the officials and regiments near the city wall cheered and the nervous and panicked Minzhuang all breathed a sigh of relief.

But this applause suddenly stopped, as if everyone was stuffed in their throats. They all looked at the south with dull eyes, and trembled towards Qiao Shan in the city. They turned around quickly and saw smoke and dust rising in the south sky. In front of the smoke and dust, there were galloping riders and panic refugees.

The city wall became silent, and then someone beat the anxious gongs and drums wildly. Everyone on the city wall was running around like headless flies, and some people shouted to close the city gate now.

"The thief is here." Someone said in a crying voice.

From Shijiazhuang to the north, the road was extremely quiet. Not to mention that there was no harassment from the incense sect riots, there were not even a few people fleeing.

After the Zhaozi Camp set out, the cavalry no longer covered the surroundings. Then the division family escorted nearly 10,000 refugees back. As soon as the Zhaozi Camp's control area was out of the control area, there would inevitably be escape. Although there were not many riders in the Yinxiang Sect's chaos army, there were also some, and the news would soon spread to the corresponding aspects of the Yinxiang Sect.

After walking ten miles northward, the army began to prepare to cross the river. Jining City was on the east side of the canal and the battlefield was on the east side of the canal. If you cross the river before the battle, it would be easy to be attacked by someone when you landed on the shore, which would be a disaster.

After making corresponding alerts, the canal ships were connected side by side, with bamboo studs and wooden boards laid on it, and the horse team and infantry began to cross the river. Fortunately, the canal water flowed smoothly and the river surface was not very wide, which was convenient for the assumption of a floating bridge.

When the brigade came over, the large cart carrying the supplies was shipped to the other shore, and the supplies could not pass the floating bridge.

"The Scent of the Incense Sect established a charity army, which is known as one hundred thousand to the public. It is said that there are numbered clothes and there are tens of thousands of people holding iron weapons."

"Xu Hongru's harem is still selecting concubines, and he also recruited the people of Zou County to repair the palace for him."

".Teng County has already fought, but the refugees who besieged the city have little morale and are not strong in their efforts to attack the city. All refugees have starved to death and burned their bodies every day."

"Yan Hei-faced, who is in Teng County, can still send letters. According to him, he has concentrated all the forces in the city and used his family and group training to suppress the city. Moreover, Qi Erkui is leading hundreds of groups to swim around the periphery, ready to respond at any time."

"According to Teng County, the refugees who attacked the city have no strong military force, and those who supervise the battle cannot be suppressed several times, and they have to gather people again."

Just as they crossed the river, Wang Zhaojing and Liu Yong told Zhao Jin about the news they had collected from various places. Zhao Jin heard the face of the Selection Concubine and Xingxiu Palace. After hearing the situation in Teng County, he asked: "If the Protectors and the Divine Army participated in the siege, it would not have been so scattered."

Liu Yong nodded and said solemnly: "Now the road from Ziyang City to Jining has been cut off. It is very troublesome to convey the news. I guess their news has arrived, and we are also under Jining City."

"It's too late." Zhao Jin said, perhaps because this was unlucky. Zhao Jin stopped and changed his words and said, "At that time, we will see it with our own eyes whether the news arrives or not."

There are several heavy houses on the opposite side of the canal and it is very troublesome to load the ship. Someone is standing side by side with a simple wooden frame in the middle. Everyone is busy there. Some people are unloading the cattle and horses from the big cart here and connecting the long rope to the boat there, preparing to do a fiber pulling effect.

Zhao Jin was silent for a moment and said in a muffled voice: "We think the situation is the most favorable now. Jining City is empty, and the other is mobilizing the incense sect's army. But there are no fools in this world. No matter how greedy Xu Hongru is for wealth, he can still think that even if he can't imagine, those people around him can think that the biggest threat to him around Shandong is definitely not the official army, but us. The incense sect can hide people. Once our army moves, the news will be sent out from Xuzhou. They will be so stupid and act on their own?"

Wang Zhaojing and Liu Yong looked at each other and knew that Zhao Jin was inspired. Teng County was also very important to the Scent of the Incense Sect, but they could not see the "Divine Army of Protective Sect" in the siege. Where did these forces go? Did they all go to Ziyang, Yanzhou Prefecture City? The war is imminent, and such wishful thinking is not possible.

"Brother, do we want our teams to stop first and wait for the exact news to come?" Wang Zhaojing suggested.

Zhao Jin did not answer, but signaled a big car passing by to stop, jumped up, stood on the board of the big car and looked around.

The teams of all regiments were resting in the whole team, and the horse team was comforting the slightly anxious horses. Even in this state, everyone still maintained order and discipline, and seemed to have a strong momentum. Zhao Jin looked at the ships loaded on the river, and then at the supplies loading on the other side of the river.

He looked around in the carriage, and Wang Zhaojing and Liu Yong below looked at each other, and were a little surprised. Even Ji Xiang, who was not far away, looked around. It was rare to see Zhao Jin like this.

When Zhao Jin jumped off the horse, his expression was no longer as cautious and worried as before. He only had a confident smile. After he came down, he shook his head and said, "The older the world, the less courageous it is. With such a military power and such an elite force, are we still afraid that those native chickens and dogs who smell the fragrance will be too careful, that is a joke."

"Brother, you should be cautious first." Wang Zhaojing said.

"You must be cautious when marching and fighting, but you should not be too low. The discussion just now is too great to respect the incense smelling teaching." Zhao Jin was full of heroism in his words.

Wang Zhaojing's attitude was reserved, and Liu Yong wanted to speak but stopped. However, the two of them had a heavy mood just now, but because of Zhao Jin's words.

Zhao Jin walked towards the direction of the personal guards and said as he walked: "We cannot just think about victory or defeat, but also about the general trend, and how to deal with it."

"Brother, we are starting from Xuzhou and have a great momentum. The government must know clearly, and the capital does not know how to react."

"The following knows, but not necessarily knows. The credit will eventually be attributed to General Zhou Shen. Everyone is happy to see that they can also share the credit. If we try to suppress the bandits and go on, how can they cover up our past affairs? We will definitely go back to the vague past."

Although it is not wishful thinking on the battlefield, it is very convenient to wishful thinking in the officialdom, because by seeking profit and avoiding harm, being one with the upper and lower levels, you can know what will happen if you grasp this rule.

Wang Zhaojing also knew this truth. When he heard this, he couldn't help but smile and nodded, but then said: "Brother, if others can go through ambiguously, I'm afraid that Wei Zhongxian and other bigwigs can't go through ambiguously. They must know that even if they don't know, they can guess it."

"We are the village heroes, and the smell of incense is a rebellion and rioters. We have talked with us. The rioters want to dig their roots. Even if we know anything, they will be vague. The trouble is only after the incident."

"I'm afraid that the official army that will be suppressed will come over. At that time, we will not deal with the thieves, but us." Wang Zhaojing said with some concern.

"The government army is not so fast, we are not so slow, this is not our wishful thinking." Zhao Jin said with a smile.

After crossing the river, the brigade prepared, then ate lunch simply and started again. When the sun was west, sporadic horses and cavalry began to appear on the periphery of the brigade.

These horse-sleeping cavalry were too far away, and they couldn't even detect anything. However, only in this way could they ensure safety. At the beginning, some people believed that they were very good at equestrian skills and wanted to get close to provoke, but they didn't expect that after getting close, they were caught by the Zhaoziying horse team riding a horse, shot down from the horse with an arrow, and took the man back with a head.
