269 Pacify and fall out (big chapter) _2
“When did this happen? How’s the situation now?” Governor Zhang asked.
that Xu Huchen spoke wildly and asked you to see him within an hour. The hour has long passed … After Tong Gong finished speaking, he saw the officials ‘expressions change and quickly added, ”
Xu Qi ‘an and the general of the wandering cavalry, li Miaozhen, went out of the city to negotiate. The situation is currently unknown.
Governor Zhang’s scalp went numb. He didn’t expect the Army of Yunzhou to be so fierce and unruly.
At this moment, he was both shocked and angry, but at the same time, he was anxious and worried.
Although Xu ningyan was good at solving cases, Governor Zhang knew that he was just a greenhorn who did not even have much experience in killing people, let alone dealing with an unreasonable Army.
“Who told him to go? who told him to go?”
Governor Zhang slammed the table and roared.
The copper Gong pursed his lips. it was Xu ningyan who insisted on stepping out. According to the silver gongs ‘plan, they were supposed to defend the city with yang Chuannan and wait for reinforcements.
“Xu ningyan also said that he would take responsibility.”
In all fairness, Xu ningyan’s strategy was more stable and correct. The Imperial court would usually placate the soldiers ‘mutiny and then kill the leader as a warning to others.
If he could avoid using weapons, he would try his best not to.
However, in the eyes of Governor Zhang, this was clearly beyond the scope of Xu ningyan’s professional ability.
“Lord song, immediately inform the military department of the five cities to gather their forces and rush to the South City. All the Yamen runners are to be dispatched to maintain the security of the city …”
Provincial governor Zhang quickly made arrangements. He was flustered but not flustered, which reflected the quality of a provincial governor.
……
“Jia, Jia …”
Provincial governor Zhang galloped his horse madly, his old bones almost falling apart. He didn’t even dare to open his mouth to complain about Jiang Luzhong, because the cold wind would pour in. He only dared to shout ” giddyup ” a few times.
According to Governor Zhang’s original arrangement, Jiang Luzhong should have rushed to the South City first, and a fourth-grade golden gong was most suitable to hold the fort.
However, Jiang Lu was as steady as a dog and refused to leave the Imperial inspector’s side. He was afraid that the Imperial inspector’s dog life would be taken away by a possible assassin and he would bleed gloriously.
Jiang Luzhong was also worried. However, he was not worried about the Wei Army attacking the city, but about the life of Xu ningyan.
Jin Luo, who had been on the battlefield, knew how difficult and unreasonable the Army could be. Xu Qi ‘an might be powerful in the capital and had even killed people in front of the Ministry of Justice.
In fact, it was precisely because it was in the capital that the big shots of the Imperial court were cautious.
This was Yunzhou, a place plagued by bandits. As long as one’s head was tied to one’s belt, be it bandits or soldiers, they were not pushovers.
There was a high possibility that he would pull out his knife and cut someone if he didn’t agree.
Gradually, as they approached the South City, Jiang Luzhong’s ear moved slightly. He listened attentively for a moment and said, as if relieved of a heavy burden, “”Governor, there’s no need to rush, slow down.”
Provincial governor Zhang didn’t want to speak, so he ignored Jiang Luzhong’s words.
“The battle didn’t start.” Jiang Lu Zhong said.
Eh?
Provincial governor Zhang was stunned. As expected, he lowered his speed and pulled the reins of his horse, changing from a mad gallop to a small jog.
“Really?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Luzhong was a high-ranked martial artist. If an intense battle were to break out outside the city, he would be able to sense it.
“It seems that the situation is relatively stable.” Provincial governor Zhang heaved a sigh of relief, and then looked at Xu Qi ‘an in a new light.”Was it Xu ningyan who stabilized the situation?”
No. Jiang Luzhong shook his head. I’ll know when I get to the South City.
Half an incense’s time later, they saw the outline of the city wall. Provincial governor Zhang squinted his eyes and looked over. The city defense Army on the top of the city wall seemed to be on guard against a great enemy, and there were soldiers in front of the ballistae and cannons.
Provincial governor Zhang squeezed his horse’s belly and galloped away. He stopped his horse by the city wall, lifted the hem of his official’s robe, and climbed the steps in a hurry.
The Crimson official’s robe symbolized his status, and no one dared to stop him.
“Governor, you’re finally here.”
The moment the square-faced, triangular-eyed Qian Hu saw provincial governor Zhang, he felt as if a huge rock had been lifted off his heart and let out a long breath.
Governor Zhang, who was still burning with anxiety during his journey, restrained all his emotions when he reached the top of the city wall. His face was dignified and expressionless.
He stood on top of the city wall for a while and ordered, “”Use the basket to put me down.”
“I will open the city gate directly,” the thousand-man commander said.”Just now, the gong and the general of the roaming cavalry left through the city gate.”
Nonsense … “If the soldiers of the guard Bureau really wanted to attack the city, the city gate would have already fallen.” The corner of Governor Zhang’s mouth twitched.
Qian Hu immediately lowered his head.
“There’s no need for the basket, I’ll bring the Imperial inspector down.” Jiang Luzhong pressed down on provincial governor Zhang’s shoulder. In the next moment, provincial governor Zhang’s vision blurred and he arrived outside the city. He was only a hundred feet away from Xu Qi ‘an and the others.
On Xu Qi ‘an’s side, he had also noticed Jiang Luzhong and provincial governor Zhang. Everyone’s expression was different. Li Miaozhen’s expression remained unchanged, while Xu Qi ‘an’s tense face relaxed a little.
Xu Huchen’s body instantly tensed up, and his hand that was holding the long dagger tightened.
The provincial governor was not scary. What was scary was Jin Luo who followed beside him.
“Xu Huchen, get off the horse and talk,” Governor Zhang said loudly.
Xu Huchen furrowed his brows and clenched the long silk tightly again. After weighing the pros and cons, he hung the long silk on the horse hook and welcomed the Imperial inspector Zhang with empty hands.
“Lord Governor!” Xu Huchen cupped his fists.
“How dare you.” Governor Zhang sneered, ” today, even if I ask Jiang Jinluo to kill you on the spot, I can still suppress the 3000 soldiers behind you.
Xu Huchen didn’t say anything.
“You’re just trying to save yang Chuannan. Let me ask you, if yang Chuannan really committed a capital crime, will you save him?”
“Sir yang is innocent.”
“I’m only asking you, are you going to save him or not?”
