As the sun set, an old man with a sword on his back looked at the flags flying on the official road in the distance and the listless government soldiers, and couldn't help but frown slightly.
The old man is Yuan Shouzheng, the leader of the Xuanhu Sword Sect. Yuan Shouzheng frowns not because the soldiers are weak, but because today is already the fifth wave of soldiers. Xuanhu City can accommodate these thousands of people, but
The quality of the soldiers in each county is different. Some officers let the soldiers go to sheep as soon as they entered the city.
Recently, there have been a lot of troubles caused by the soldiers, but the disciples of the Xuanhu Sword Sect have been exhausted. If there is a dispute between the soldiers and the people, it would be okay if the Xuanhu Sword Sect and the local government come forward.
I can push things through. But once a dispute breaks out between the soldiers, it will be very difficult to handle.
The soldiers from each county were used to running rampant in their own territory, and they couldn't stand it. A few days ago, two groups of soldiers from the county were having a drink in a restaurant in Xuanhu City. Because their voices were a little loud, the two groups started fighting.
Get up. Of course there is a winner or loser in a fight, but the loser is not convinced. When he returns to the camp, he pulls out more brothers. In an instant, the soldiers from the two counties unsheath their swords and block the streets of Xuanhu City. They are about to fight.
Fighting in the arena.
He didn't fight Tie Moller, so he decided to talk to his own people first. It would be nice to hear about this, but the captains on both sides refused to bow their heads and insisted on forcing the other party to hand over the murderer.
Thousands of people blocked the long street and were at war with each other, but they scared the people of Xuanhu City. If Yuan Shouzheng hadn't arrived in time, he wouldn't have known how much trouble would have happened. At that time, Yuan Shouzheng was very angry, and the old man drew his sword in anger.
By dividing the long street into two, the two groups of government soldiers were frightened away.
There are already four groups of government soldiers in the city today. Let another group come in, and Xuanhu City will not let them cause trouble. Yuan Shou was looking at the government soldiers approaching from far away, and suddenly ordered someone to raise the suspension bridge.
Yuan Shouzheng did not plan to let the soldiers enter the city, at least not today. If it weren't for the military god's words, and the various counties and counties had to properly arrange the soldiers passing by, Yuan Shouzheng would have planned to let the soldiers camp outside the city.
Nangong Yu frowned as he looked at Xuanhu City in front of him, because he saw that the suspension bridge of Xuanhu City had slowly risen, which was obviously aimed at them.
The soldiers were not stupid, they knew that they were not welcome, but they were not fighting for the country for thousands of miles, so how could they bear this anger, and they immediately stood in front of the suspension bridge and started to curse.
Nangong Yu waved his hand to suppress the soldiers, looked at the city head and said loudly: "Xunyang County, Nangong Yu, under the command of Governor Zheng Tianqi, wants to see the magistrate of Xuanhu City!"
Yuan Shouzheng, who was on top of the city, replied loudly: "The city is full of soldiers and we can no longer accommodate you. Please camp outside the city. I will order people to bring you food later!"
Yuan Shouzheng was dressed in gray and not wearing an official robe. Of course he was not an official, so why did he wear an official robe?
After being rejected, Nangong Yu also held back his anger. He wanted to know who was in front of him and what authority he had to prevent Xunyang Mansion soldiers from entering the city. He asked one by one: "I don't know who you are. Please tell me.
It’s a good idea to report back to my Lord Governor!”
Yuan Shouzheng smiled and said: "Leader of the Five Swords Alliance Yuan Shouzheng, young general, you can tell your lieutenant truthfully!"
Nangong Yu frowned. He had also heard about the Five Swords Alliance's battle against the Tuoba family's black flag. Obviously, this old man was not easy to talk to. It seemed that it was impossible to go to the city to rest today.
Nangong Yu hugged Yuan Shouzheng on the top of the city and turned around to find Zheng Tianqi, but saw that Zheng Tianqi had already rode his horse to the suspension bridge.
I saw Zheng Tianqi nodding towards Nan Gongyu, which meant that he knew what was going on here, and he clasped his fists towards Yuan Shouzheng and said: "Zheng Tianqi, the governor of Xunyang County, has met Sect Master Yuan! Our troops have been traveling for a day, and it is true that
We need a good rest, and I hope that Sect Master Yuan will see my Xunyang Mansion soldiers marching all the way north to defend our country, and let me rest in the city for one night. Sect Master Yuan can rest assured that our Xunyang Mansion soldiers are strictly disciplined and will never do anything.
It will disturb the people!"
Zheng Tianqi had also seen the government soldiers disturbing the people, so he understood Yuan Shouzheng's difficulties, but he also hoped that Yuan Shouzheng could understand the difficulty of these big-headed soldiers.
Yuan Shouzheng shook his head and said: "It's not that I, Yuan Shouzheng, don't follow the orders of the God of War, nor that I, Yuan Shouzheng, don't respect the moral principles of the world, but that Xuanhu City is not big in the first place. Today, four government troops have stationed in Xuanhu City.
Even if I want to let you enter the city, I have nowhere to accommodate you! If Governor Zheng doesn't believe it, you can come to the city and have a look with me, and you will know that what I, Yuan Shouzheng, said is true!"
Zheng Tianqi was also embarrassed for a moment. Obviously what Yuan Shouzheng said was not a lie, otherwise he would not have been allowed to go to the city to see what happened. However, his brothers really needed to make corrections. If they were camping in the wild every day, they might not have reached Jinyang.
They all fell ill on the way.
Li Taiping and Du Lao were originally hanging at the rear of the army to prevent any soldiers from falling behind. At this time, seeing that they had been blocked at the city gate for a long time and still had not entered the city, he couldn't help but gallop towards the city gate.
Before Li Taiping reached the city gate, he heard the soldiers discussing that it was too much to prevent Xuanhu City from entering, and he couldn't help but frowned. Because Li Taiping still wanted to enter the city to see the things he hadn't seen for a long time.
Where are Yuan Shouzheng and Niu Niu...
Li Taiping came to the suspension bridge, first nodded to Nangong Yu and Zheng Tianqi, and then looked towards the top of the city. Yuan Shouzheng was still the same, Li Taiping recognized him at a glance, and couldn't help but said loudly: "Sect Master Yuan, you are fine!"
Yuan Shouzheng saw a young general wearing a helmet and shaking armor shouting to him, and the voice seemed familiar, so he looked at it carefully. It didn't matter, but Yuan Shouzheng was very happy.
"When did Brother Taiping join the army? I asked the Cui family to inquire about my little brother's whereabouts but I didn't find out! Little brother doesn't know. This girl Niuniu has been teasing me recently and asked me to take her to the rivers and lakes to find you.
, you said you wanted to fight with your uncle to the end of the world, but you tortured me so much!"
As Yuan Shouzheng spoke, he ordered someone to lower the suspension bridge, and at the same time he flew down to Li Taiping...
Li Taiping dismounted and said with a smile: "It just so happens that I have a night's rest in Xuanhu City tonight. I'm going to meet that little girl Niuniu and help the sect master teach her!"
Zheng Tianqi dismounted and said with a smile: "Taiping and Sect Leader Yuan seem to be old acquaintances!"
Yuan Shouzheng suddenly looked at Zheng Tianqi and said with a smile: "Since Taiping serves as a soldier under Master Zheng, you are no longer outsiders. I will drive the sect disciples home tonight and let you live in my Xuanhu Sword Sect!"
Zheng Tianqi glanced at Li Taiping and thought that Li Taiping was very proud. Not only did he allow the soldiers to enter the city, but he also moved into the Xuanhu Sword Sect.
I saw Zheng Tianqi, clasping his fists towards Yuan Shouzheng again and saluting: "Thank you, Sect Leader Yuan!"
"Easy to say, easy to say!"
Yuan Shouzheng was talking and laughing, and then took Li Taiping's hand and walked towards the city. Seeing that he wanted to do it, he had to ask Li Taiping to cure the troublesome person in the family immediately.
Yuan Shouzheng ordered people to take Xunyang Mansion soldiers to the sect, while he and Li Taiping returned to the Yuan family's old house...
Five hundred soldiers from the government lived in the Xuanhu Sword Sect. Although it was a bit crowded, it was better than camping on the streets outside. What's more, the Xuanhu Sword Sect also slaughtered an ox and gave them a delicious meal, which made the government
Bing's face lit up with joy.
The news has spread among the soldiers. They can enter the city, live in a sheltered house, and have a good meal, but thanks to Colonel Li Taiping. Before that, the soldiers had no control over Li Taiping and Du Huwei.
They were dissatisfied. After all, these two were outsiders, and they had been promoted to captains as soon as they arrived. The soldiers were unconvinced, and they had been pushing against them all the way.
Although Li Taiping did not intend to win people's hearts, the soldiers were grateful because of that night in Xuanhu City.
The Yuan family's old house is still the same, but with the addition of Niu Niu, it becomes a lot more lively. The little girl jumps up and down all day long and has no time to idle. No, Niu Niu cuts the red bed sheet into a cloak and puts it behind her to crawl around secretly
She climbed onto the roof, gesticulating with a dagger in her hand, very much like a knight-errant...
"Ouch! If my little ancestor doesn't hurry up and come down, it would be better if the master sees him!"
"Niuniu, the heroine can fly to the sky and escape from the earth, but she can't climb on the roof of other people's houses. How about we come down to show off!"
A group of old ladies and maids from the Yuan family gathered under the eaves, trying their best to trick the daring little ancestor on the roof.
At this moment, Niu Niu pinched her waist, looked at the old woman below and yelled angrily: "This heroine is the Xuanhu Sword Zongmei who is holding the ceremony. You and other bandits will be captured soon!"
The little girl was in high spirits, no matter how anxious she was, she still acted on her own, acting like the heroine in her heart should be.
When Yuan Kewen heard the commotion in the backyard, he got up and went to see what was going on. When he saw it, he couldn't help but feel happy. This cousin was making noises in different ways all day long, but he was much more naughty than when he was a child.
Yuan Kewen jumped up and landed on the roof, then grabbed Niuniu by the back of her neck and lifted her down. At the same time, he scolded: "If you, a little goblin, are causing trouble, I will beat you back to your original form. Do you know your mistake?"
"I don't want to be a goblin, I want to be a heroine! If my cousin doesn't let me be a heroine, I will tell my grandfather that my cousin is bullying me! Moreover, I will also tell my grandfather that my cousin was talking to the girl in the family two days ago.
The disciples frowned..."
Yuan Kewen covered Niu Niu's little mouth and whispered: "Niu Niu will be a heroine, be a heroine!"
Seeing that her cousin had raised his hands to surrender, Niu Niu pouted her lips and said aggressively: "It's too late! If my cousin doesn't take me out to play, I will tell my grandfather that my cousin two days ago..."
Yuan Kewen used to be the undisputed boss in this family, but since Niuniu came, he, the young master of the Yuan family, has fallen into obscurity. Every now and then, he will be threatened by this little goblin. And this little goblin doesn’t know whether he is listening or not.
Who said that if he and Sun Wan'er caused that unpleasant incident, as long as he spoke a few words to the female disciple in the sect, he would be blackmailed.
Yuan Shouzheng took care of Yuan Kewen's affairs regarding Sun Wan'er, and Yuan Kewen's scalp feels numb when he thinks about it now. Now Yuan Kewen has tried his best to avoid contact with the female disciples of the Sword Sect, but after all, you can't see him when he looks up, but he always looks down when he looks down.
You want to say hello, not to mention some female disciples taking the initiative to talk to you.
The little girl caught him again, so Yuan Kewen had no choice but to hold Niu Niu and sneak out of the Yuan family's old house again...
