Above the official road, war horses neighed, and the sound of golden swords accompanied by the collision of armor came, indicating a sense of murderous intent. Thousands of soldiers marched in with only light armor and swords.

At this time, the formation of the soldiers was somewhat scattered, and some soldiers were constantly exhausted and falling behind. But even so, the generals did not care about this and continued to urge the soldiers forward.

A general wearing armor and surrounded by dozens of knights reined in his horse and stopped on the roadside.

Seeing that the army's sergeants were falling behind so seriously, the general's eyes narrowed.

At this moment, a light rider came from a distance. He came to the general on a fast horse, got off his horse, knelt down on one knee, and shouted loudly:

"Report to the general, eighty miles ahead is the county seat of Huang'an County."

When the leading general heard this, his eyes became solemn and he immediately asked:

"What's the situation like now?"

"Back to General, tens of thousands of refugees have trapped the city. However, no conflict has broken out so far, and the situation can be stabilized."

When the general heard this, he hurriedly said without thinking:

"We have been traveling day and night, and the whole army is already exhausted. Going hastily is a taboo in the art of war! If a large army comes, causing tension and misunderstanding among the refugees, and worsening the situation, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to recruit teachers!"

"Pass this general's order to set up camp here and rest for a few days. We will also send scouting horses to find out the news!"

This general is Zhu Dong, the general of Xia's southwest frontier army and the current commander of Zhenyi Battalion. He is currently under the orders of King Qi to lead light troops to quickly receive supplies from the imperial court.

Although King Qi ordered him to rush to Huang'an County as soon as possible to receive supplies, what Zhu Dong said at this time was not false.

Before the Zhenyi Camp, everyone in the camp, from the chief general to the lower-level generals, were all generals, and their influence was deep-rooted. When King Qi invaded the northern border of Yun Kingdom, he wanted to use his sword to kill people, so he deliberately let the Zhenyi Battalion attack the strong city.

Not long after that, all the southwest generals were wiped out, and most of the Zhanyi Battalion, the most capable of the Xia Kingdom's southwest frontier armies, was destroyed. Although it was rebuilt now, it was mostly new soldiers. It was not as good as before, and it was only then that it was destroyed by King Qi.

Send people to deliver supplies and food.

They were not the most elite troops to begin with. After several days of forced marching, the soldiers of Zhenyi Battalion were exhausted. If the refugees were really nervous and caused them to attack the military formation, they might not be able to hold on for long.

Anyway, the current situation is quite stable, so there is no rush.

To this, all the generals in Zhenyi Camp had no objections.

When the military order to stop marching and rest was given, the soldiers who were on the verge of collapse immediately stopped and sat down on the ground, gasping for air.

Zhu Dong explained a few more words to his generals, and then went to explore the surrounding situation in person with only a few trusted guards.

Until a few people were far away from the army, Zhu Dong suddenly said in a deep voice:

"Didn't you say that they have been prepared for it? But now there is nothing wrong with Huang'an County, but the army has already arrived. There is no way that they can just sit back and watch Huang'an County fall. Otherwise, what should I do if the commander-in-chief handles it with military law?"

The man dressed as a soldier behind him raised his head slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said:

"General Zhu, please be patient. For such a major matter, you should handle it with caution. Don't let others take advantage of it afterwards..."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Dong tightened his grip on the riding crop, his beard raised in anger, and he cursed in a low voice:

"Proceed with caution? I was working for you despite the risk, but you told me to be careful? What about me? What should I do?"

The man dressed as a soldier saw that Zhu Dong was anxious, but he quickly spoke out:

"Please don't be anxious, General Zhu. We are by the general's side, so it is inevitable that we do not understand the situation... But please rest assured, general, I will urge the people below to take action. We have also placed people in Huang'an County, and we will definitely succeed...

…”

The man paused and said softly:

"Please rest assured, General, I will grant you many appointments and wishes afterwards!"

Upon hearing what this person said, Zhu Dong's pupils shrank and his throat moved subconsciously.

Thinking of the rewards promised to him by the people behind the scenes, Zhu Dong felt even more itchy.

"Okay, tomorrow night at most, we can't delay it any longer!"

Hearing this, the man lowered his head and smiled, saying:

"Please don't worry, General, I don't think we will succeed tonight!"

Zhu Dong nodded, flicked his whip, and immediately drove his horse, turning around and heading towards the camp.

At this moment, not far away outside the county seat of Huang'an County.

Murong Fu, who was still dressed as a prince from a graceful family, looked at the refugees kneeling in front of him, and his brows suddenly moved.

Compared with the real refugees, although these people in front of them were also wearing shabby clothes, they all looked strong and they did not look like they were fleeing at all.

The brows between each and every one of them are filled with a fierce atmosphere of the battlefield. Where are the refugees? It is even more believable to say that they are warriors killed on the battlefield!

"Is this the person arranged by the general?" Murong Fu narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice.

The leader immediately raised his head, cupped his hands and shouted:

"Back to the Second General, we are all soldiers of the old camp. We have already joined the army to seek a way out! The General asked us to come here, secretly instigated nearby refugees, and trapped the team transporting materials from the Great Xia court here. Then on the Second

The general's subordinates will do their best to take down Huang'an County!"

Murong Fu looked at the old soldier who was kneeling on the ground in front of him. Although he was dressed in shabby clothes, he had a murderous aura. Hao Yuanhua's bold and square face flashed through his mind.

A rebel leader just took advantage of the turmoil of the current situation to gain momentum. As a result, he got the route of Xia Kingdom's material transportation so early, and even set up a plan in advance to wait in Huang'an County.

Behind this Hao Yuanhua, there must be someone secretly supporting him and passing on information!

Seeing that Murong Fu didn't speak, the leader continued:

"The general also said later that after the county seat of Huang'an County is captured, we people don't have to go back and will just follow the second general. At that time, the second general can use the supplies in Huang'an County to recruit refugees to form a rebel army. Shaoyang

Let the second general attack the county's city!"

Upon hearing this, Murong Fu's eyes suddenly lit up.

Although he, the second general, sounds like he is ranked lower than one person among the rebels and higher than ten thousand people. But in fact, he has no soldiers under his command, so his title is just an empty title.

It was Hao Yuanhua who saw his outstanding martial arts skills and sealed such a position in order to win him over.

And when Hao Yuanhua said this, didn't he give him a chance to stand on his own feet?

If you think about it carefully, Huang'an County now has so many supplies. When the time comes, they can use these things to recruit the rebels and use them to raise their banners. With the support of Sticky Post, they can separate Shaoyang County. Then, with the help of water conservancy, we can attack in all directions. If fate is on my Murong family's side,

, maybe there is a chance to take over all six counties in the southwest!

Thinking of this, Murong Fu couldn't help but gasp slightly.

Seeing this, Murong Fu no longer cared about the gorgeous clothes on his body. He quickly bent down and helped the group of tough soldiers and old thieves up with his own hands. With a sincere look on his face, he said:

"The General has entrusted me with such an important task. I, Murong Fu, must not let the General down! I wonder how prepared you are at the moment?"

"Now outside Huang'an County, many refugees have lost their way to live and have fled to us. At the beginning, many of our people also sneaked into the city, and they were all placed in important positions. As long as the second general gives the order, we

Brothers, you can start tonight!"

Important location?

How can a person who can be called an important position in a city be filled by a refugee? After Hao Yuan's incarnation, there must be people from the Xia Kingdom's court supporting him!

Sure enough, God is helping me, the Murong family, taking advantage of Hao Yuanhua's east wind, they will definitely be able to gain a foothold! If Hao Yuanhua can understand in the future, just based on what he did today, it wouldn't be a bad idea to grant him glory and wealth...

Thinking of this, Murong Fu's heart was filled with heat, and he immediately said with great pride:

"Okay, tonight I will go on stage with my brothers. Huang'an County must be defeated in one battle!"

After agreeing on a time signal to attack the city tonight, the rebel soldiers dispersed and hid among the refugees.

After everyone left, the entourage behind Murong Fu suddenly spoke:

"I didn't expect that those who secretly instigated the people were actually members of the Anshun County rebels!"

The person who dared to speak suddenly at this time was obviously not one of Murong Fu's followers. This person was placed next to Murong Fu by Sticky Stick to communicate and deliver news.

Hearing the person behind him speak, Murong Fu suddenly turned around and said in a deep voice:

"Nianganzhu, will you help me? I am also from the Yun Kingdom. Compared to a group of Xia Kingdom rebels, I am more willing to cooperate with you!"

Upon hearing this, the hidden guard at the sticky pole immediately grinned, nodded and said:

"Please rest assured, young master, we will do our best to help you with this matter... After all, this is closely related to the black gauze hats of all the guards at our sticking pole!"

Murong Fu didn't know Xiao Cheng's promise to Guo Xie, so he naturally didn't understand what it meant. But at this time, he was already so excited by the ambition and hegemony in his mind that he couldn't care anymore.

These are unimportant things.

He turned to look at Huang'an County, which was not far away, and the refugees who had been brought here in search of a way to survive. There seemed to be an image of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood in his eyes.

In the county seat of Huang'an County, a delicate woman wearing a men's robe with a cold look on her brows was standing in the hall with her arms folded.

Zhou Quan walked quickly, nodded slightly to the woman, and said in a deep voice:

"Miss Heyin!"

This woman named Heyin is the palace maid who serves Yu Yingyao closely. As someone who has been assigned to serve Yu Yingyao since she was twelve or thirteen years old, and to this day, she is obviously a confidant who Yu Yingyao can absolutely trust.

This time, she personally came to deliver the secret message regarding the matter in Huang'an County.

Heyin looked at Zhou Quan, nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice:

"What's wrong?"

"The embroiderers brought by the girl have all dispersed into the city for strict investigation. Four hundred of the soldiers I can mobilize have gone out to take over the city defense, and the rest have all gone together to search for the spies!"
To be continued...
