Chapter 99

fire!

The blazing fire was burning, and the once magnificent Sun family mansion was completely shrouded in flames.

Looking at the Sun family in the flames, Zhu Guoqiang was unexpectedly calm.

He did not feel any psychological pressure because he killed the entire Sun family. It was not just because of the evil Sun Zhixie did, but also because he was adapting to the moral code of this era.

"Of the boss, should we go back to the mountain or?"

Ding Pengcheng's question made Zhu Guoqiang smile.

"Go back to the mountain? Since you have already gone down the mountain, let's make a mess!"

If he doesn’t make trouble, how could he attract the attention of the court and let them see the "bandits" in Shandong?

Zouping County in the morning and dusk seemed particularly quiet. The rural soldiers recruited when Jiannu invaded the invasion of the New Year had long been disbanded. Only the gate guards were still sleeping in the dilapidated arrow tower on the city wall.

"The city gate is about to open!"

Staring at Zouping County in the middle of the night, Zhu Guoqiang said to himself.

According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, the city gate opened at 5:00 a.m. every day, that is, it was around 4:00 a.m. Through the telescope, you could vaguely see many vendors crowding outside the city gate. They were vendors who went to the city to sell vegetables and goods.

"Wang Dali, you lead a few brothers to the West City Gate. As soon as the city gate is opened, you will kill the guards and seize the city gate!"

Raising the horse whip, Zhu Guoqiang ordered his subordinates around him.

Although it is not said that the security has been in peace for many years, the inland hinterland that has been abandoned for many years is not required to attack such a county town, it only needs a surprise attack.

In fact, whether it is the Qing army invading or Li Zicheng sweeping across the Central Plains, it is mostly attacking him without preparation, or using the army to deter the opponent from defense and rarely attack strongly... In fact, even if it is defended, it will not last long.

The fifth and third hours arrived. The four city gates in Zouping opened on time.

"Slow down, slow down, don't squeeze..."

There were also sleeping servants in the city gate, shouting, asking the people entering the city not to crowd together. In fact, there were not many people at the city gate, and they were just dozens of vendors from nearby villages.

"When you are rushing to lift your fetus..."

Listening to the sound of horse hooves in front of him, the officer guarding the gate looked up and saw a white light flashing in front of him. Without waiting for the officer to shout, Wang Dali, who led five or six cavalry into the city, killed the five and six officers guarding the city gate, and even two vendors who wanted to shout were killed.

But even so, when Wang Dali sent someone to send a signal to the boss, there was still a burst of shouting in the city. The vendors who escaped by luck ran and shouted while running.

"Murdered!"

"The horse has entered the city..."

...

Almost as soon as Zhu Guoqiang led his brothers into Zouping County, the city became a mess. To the people in the city, they were not unfamiliar with the horses, but this was the first time I heard that bandits attacked the city.

Almost while the city was in chaos, Zhu Guoqiang had led 200 cavalry and dozens of strong men recruited from the Sun family to break into Zouping County.

"Go straight to the county government, go straight to the county government..."

Zhu Guoqiang, who was leading the way, waved the saber in his hand and ran a horse while shouting.

As long as the yamen is taken, Zouping County will be taken away.

The whole process went smoothly beyond Zhu Guoqiang's imagination. It was not until he was approaching the yamen that he saw a team of yamen who rushed over. Before the yamen could react, Ding Pengcheng and others who were following Zhu Guoqiang had already rushed over. Although they were from a guard and were not good at riding bows, they had also conducted some horse fighting training. They held the reins with one hand and clamped the spear under their armpits with the other.

"kill……"

The spear several meters long, with the impact of the horse, easily pierced the bodies of the yamen, like skewers. However, in just a blink of an eye, four or five yamen fell down. The remaining yamen immediately dispersed. As local people, they did not escape to the main road at all, but fled directly to the alleys on the left and right.

"Escape quickly..."

When the yamen who only regretted that his parents had few legs fled everywhere, Zhu Guoqiang did not ask someone to chase him, but directly ordered people to kill him into the yamen.

"The magistrate is there, the magistrate is there..."

Wang Dali, who was leading the way, held a sabre with a knife in his hand, and shouted loudly while riding his horse in the yamen, but people didn't expect that the magistrate would sneak away without knowing it.

"He actually ran away..."

"Escape?"

Although he was a little surprised that the magistrate escaped so quickly, Zhu Guoqiang didn't find it strange. After all,... it is human nature to be greedy for life and fear of death.

"Please all the people in the yamen and see how much money there is in the warehouse, and..."

Just as Zhu Guoqiang was about to take over, there was a noise outside, and there was a roar of gongs and drums on both sides.

"Kill the horse, kill the horse..."

"The boss, it's not good, no, the county magistrate will come back..."

In fact, the magistrate Xu Neng did not escape. When he heard that Xiangma entered the city and escaped from the back door, he fled directly into the neighboring Zhang Dahu's house. Although there were only twenty or thirty servants in Zouping County, Zhang Dahu's house had twenty or thirty servants. Every wealthy family in the city had at least a dozen or twenty or thirty servants. Last time Jiannu invaded, he asked those servants to go to the city to defend the city. These servants were said to be servants, but there were also guards and guards. Although they were not skilled in archery and horses, they were all complete.

When Zhang Dahu heard the horses and entered the city, he would not know that the horses were powerful. While handing over the servants to the magistrate, he also asked the servants to notify the other families, without even waiting for him to notify them. After learning that the horses had entered the city, the wealthy families in the city hurriedly rushed to the county government with their servants.

The consciousness is definitely better than the soldiers of the garrison. After all, for these wealthy families, they know very well that the first person who suffers after the horse enters the city is definitely the one who is the one who is the one who is naturally concerned about it.

They met the yamen officers who had been killed and retreated head-on. When the officers who were killed and frightened, they immediately became brave.

"County Master, County Master..."

The panting yamen shouted loudly when he saw County Magistrate Xu and his men coming over.

"Those horses are robbed in the county government..."

"Hurry, Brother Zhang, don't let those loud horses escape..."

"No hurry!"

When Zhang Dahu heard this, he laughed,

"But, beat the gong..."

When the harsh gong sounded, there were also gongs in the distance. The sound of gongs and drums sounded from all directions suddenly formed a whole in the city. Seeing that Li Magistrate beside him seemed a little confused, Zhang Dahu explained.

"County Master, my Zouping County is located on the edge of a mountain. It often makes horse thieves, and they always have some self-protection tricks. This time we are going to catch turtles in a jar!"
