As soon as such a moving speech came out, all the Dafeng soldiers shouted with enthusiasm: "Kill! Kill! We are willing to follow General Yue Qing to take back Ma City!"
Yue Qing nodded with satisfaction, and immediately led his army straight to Macheng.
After the army arrived at Ma City, Yue Qing rode his war horse and rushed to the city gate. Holding Yu Tu's head, he shouted at the defenders in the city:
"Brothers who are garrison in the city, please keep an eye on me. This is the Xiongnu general Yu Tutou."
"Yutu is dead and the entire Xiongnu army has been wiped out. If you are willing to open the city gate, it will be regarded as atonement for your sins and I will not punish you."
"If you refuse, when the city is breached, both you and that traitor Jia Gou will die!"
Hearing Yue Qing's words, the defenders on the tower also looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
In desperation, they had no choice but to notify the county magistrate Jia Gou.
When Jia Gou came to the tower and saw Yu Tu's head in Yue Qing's hand, he turned pale and said, "Yue Qing... you actually killed Yu Tu..."
"What are you talking about, General Yu Tu? Jia Gou, are you really used to being a dog to the Huns?" Yue Qing was so angry that he couldn't help but cursed,
"Jia Gou, now that Yu Tu is dead, if you open the city gate, for the sake of atonement, I may be able to let you live, but you will definitely not be able to take the position of county magistrate."
After hearing this, Jia Gou fell into deep thought. After a long time, he said: "Well, Yue Qing, give me some time to think about it. Since you were my subordinate in the past, can you agree to it?"
Yue Qing frowned, obviously not sure whether he should agree to Jia Gou's request.
However, Qi Tian directly saw through Jia Gou's thoughts and directly reminded Yue Qing: "General Yue Qing, absolutely cannot agree to him. That guy just wants to wait for the arrival of Ke Fu's reinforcements."
As soon as these words came out, Yue Qing suddenly realized, pointed at Jia Gou on the tower and shouted: "Jia Gou, you despicable and shameless bastard!"
Jia Gou was so embarrassed that he was scolded, and at the same time he looked at Qi Tian with an angry look: "Boy, I was kind to you before, right? You are repaying a kindness with a grudge."
"If it weren't for Mr. Xiao Yu, would you do that to me?" Qi Tian asked indifferently, and continued to say to Yue Qing, "General Yue Qing, stop talking nonsense and attack the city directly."
Yue Qing frowned and said: "The walls of this horse city are extremely thick. If we attack by force, I'm afraid we won't get any benefits."
Qi Tian shook his head and said in denial: "There is no need to attack by force, we can just use the bomb I made to blow it up."
"That makes sense..." Yue Qing was overjoyed and ordered his men to take out grenades, and then threw one after another at the gate of Ma City.
Rumble~
Rumble~
Along with the huge explosion, the city gate of Macheng was really blown open by a grenade.
Seeing such a terrifying weapon, Jia Gou was as dumbfounded as possible, and when he saw Yue Qing leading Dafeng soldiers into the city, he became even more panicked.
"Retreat quickly, leave quickly." Jia Gou gave the order in a panic, but at this moment, the guards on the left and right suddenly put a knife on his neck.
"You... what are you doing?" Jia Gou said in shock.
The leading guard soldier said with a gloomy face: "I'm so sorry, Lord County Magistrate, if you don't serve yourself, you will be destroyed by heaven and earth. Your situation is over, so let us use you to exchange for a share of fame in front of General Yue Qing."
"Assholes, you are all bastards!" Jia Gou roared angrily and wanted to struggle again, but the guard soldiers had already taken action.
It is conceivable that Jia Gou, who was born as a scholar, could not be the opponent of these soldiers. He was knocked to the ground within a few rounds and was beaten violently.
"Stop fighting...stop fighting..." Jia Gou could only helplessly cover his head and wail in pain.
At this moment, Qi Tian led some soldiers to arrive. Seeing Jia Gou's miserable appearance, he also clicked his tongue and shook his head.
Seeing Qitian, Jia Gou felt as if he had seen a savior, and quickly shouted: "Qitian, save me quickly!"
When Qi Tian heard this, he immediately shouted: "Stop it!"
Several city guards looked at each other in shock when they heard this. The leading guard couldn't help but explain: "General Qitian, we and others who didn't intend to be traitors were led by this guy to surrender to the Huns. We didn't either.
There is a way."
"Now we will capture him and dedicate him to General Yue Qing and you. We also ask you and the general to give us a chance to atone for our sins."
Qi Tian said calmly: "Okay, as the saying goes, a prodigal son never pays for his return. If you have the intention to change for the better and not be traitors, General Yue Qing and I are very welcome, but..."
As Qi Tian spoke, he pointed at Jia Gou: "This guy can't die yet. I, the general, can still use him by keeping him."
Since Qi Tian was made a deputy general by Yue Qing, he naturally calls himself a general now.
"I see, we will obey your order." Upon hearing this, several soldiers guarding the city handed Jia Gou into Qi Tian's hands.
After being handed over to Qi Tian's hands, Jia Gou's inner fear was still there. He looked at Qi Tian in fear and shouted: "Qi Tian, what on earth do you want to do... I warn you, don't mess around."
Qi Tian was immediately angered: "Jia Gou, do you think you are still the superior county magistrate? Now you are just a prisoner, what are you pretending to be in front of me?"
One sentence directly broke Jia Gou's guard again, causing him to beg for mercy: "Qitian, please spare me a way to live. As long as you let me go, I will do anything."
Qi Tian did not pay attention to Jia Gou, but just carried him to the center of Macheng Square.
Macheng Square is where the people of Macheng live on weekdays. Since Macheng was occupied by the Huns, it has been relatively empty.
After learning that Yue Qing led his army to retake Ma City, the people who had been hiding at home and dared not come out one by one dared to go out and come to the square.
When they saw Qi Tian bringing Jia Gou to the square, the people all showed surprised expressions:
"Isn't that the traitor County Magistrate Jia Gou? Who caught him?"
"Hey, don't you know? That person is Qi Tian, the deputy general of our General Yue Qing. I heard that this General Qi Tian is very powerful. He is good at making all kinds of magic weapons. General Yue Qing can lead his army to take back Ma City.
, it’s all his credit.”
Amid the discussion among the people, Qi Tian had already arrived at the center of the square and tied Jia Gou to a pillar.
Immediately, he shouted to the surroundings:
"Fathers and fellow villagers, I know you have been suffering during this time."
"And the source of your suffering is all because of the traitorous commander in front of you."
"He betrayed you to the Huns regardless of your life or death."
"Today, I will uphold justice for you and kill him!"
