The days when I was working in the West Factory

Chapter 208 The Good and the Bad
Above the city of Anqing, Shen Anliang watched the black army in the distance, and swallowed subconsciously.

Before the enemy came, he was very proud and vowed to live and die with this Anqing Mansion.

But when more than [-] people are in front of them, let alone a civil official like Shen Anliang, even the guarding generals beside him have a little cramp in their calves.

"Master Zhifu, let's..."

The guard glanced at Shen Anliang, who was also pale, and asked tentatively.

But before he could finish speaking, the magistrate, who had lost his mind, pulled out his sword from his waist and said tremblingly, "Order the towers in all directions, and be on strict guard. Anyone who dares to surrender will be killed without mercy!!"

"Follow the order!"

Seeing that the magistrate was about to risk his life, the guard could only clasp his fists in response.

But Shen Anliang, whose calves were trembling after being overwhelmed by hundreds of thousands of troops, did not see the murderous intent that flashed in the eyes of the guard with fists clasped.

The guard sent four guards around to send orders, and at this time, among the army under the city, a messenger and banner officer came on horseback, and went straight to the foot of Anqing City.

"Where is Shen Anliang, the prefect of Anqing?!"

The officer who ordered the flag came to the city on horseback, held up the yellow flag in his hand, and shouted loudly at the top of the city.

Shen Anliang, who was directly called by someone, took a step back subconsciously, and then immediately stepped forward to the crenelation of the city wall.

"This official is the prefect of Anqing!!"

Looking at the messenger flag officer below, Shen Anliang didn't know why, but the fear in his heart disappeared without warning.

"My commander-in-chief has ordered you to open the city immediately to welcome Master Wang. If not, after the city is broken..."

Whoosh! !

Before the messenger-banner officer finished speaking, a sharp arrow shot down from the top of the city, nailing the messenger-banner officer to death in an instant!

"This……"

Above Anqing City, the guard looked at Shen Anliang holding the bow in surprise.

Even if he was beaten to death, he would never have imagined that this well-known corrupt official in Anqing Mansion would be so bloody!
Although Shen Anliang was born as a civil servant, after all, he is also proficient in the six arts of a gentleman, and he is fairly proficient in riding and shooting.

The reason why he was able to kill the messenger flag officer with one arrow was that this guy was too careless, he didn't pay attention to Anqing Mansion at all, and rode his horse directly to the city.

Secondly, this Shen Anliang has a good reputation, everyone knows that he is not a good bird.

But who would have thought that such a corrupt official would have such backbone!
To crucify and kill the officer of the messenger flag is equivalent to telling King Ning's vanguard coach that they will never stop dying!
Shen Anliang's arrow not only nailed down the flag officer of the rebel army, but also blocked the escape route of all Anqing soldiers and civilians!
After the commander-in-chief was killed, several rebel vanguards rode out, came to the city wall, and snatched back the body of the commander-in-chief.

dong dong dong! !

Three thunderous cannons were heard from the army in the distance, and an army of more than [-] soldiers pressed towards the city gate like a black cloud in an instant.

……

Zhao Yu brought all the warriors from the supervisory headquarters to the east gate of Anqing Mansion.

At this moment, countless civilians who wanted to escape from the city had already blocked the entire east gate.

"Everyone, there are rebels outside the east gate. Everyone will die if they leave the city at this moment. The magistrate has reported to the court, and the army will soon..."

At the gate of the city, the gatekeepers blocked the gate with horizontal guns, and no one was allowed to enter or exit.

But those civilians didn't believe the words of the city guards and kept clamoring to leave the city.

"Fart! Shen Anliang, a corrupt official, does he care about the lives of ordinary people like us?"

"That's right, the nonsense of swearing to defend the city to the death, Shen Anliang may have escaped with his family by this time!"

"Staying here is death, why not let us go out, maybe there is still a way out!"

……

Normally, how dare these civilians talk to soldiers and gentlemen like this?
But now that the army is besieging the city, there are deaths on the left and right, who would be afraid of a dozen soldiers in this area!

"As soon as the city gate is opened, the rebels take advantage of the momentum to enter the city, and the consequences..."

The soldiers guarded the city gate, and the old soldier in the lead was still shouting hoarsely, but no one listened to him.

"None of my business!!"

Someone held up a hoe and threw it straight at the head of the leading soldier.

Seeing someone picking their head, the countless civilians blocking the gate of the city instantly got excited, and raised the things in their hands one after another, and threw them at the soldiers.

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen soldiers died at the hands of these civilians.

The rest of the people rushed forward, rushing towards the bolt in the center of the city gate.

……

"grown ups……"

Not far away, Lu Jianxing saw this scene, his expression changed, and he looked anxiously at Zhao Yu.

Once the gates of the city are opened, these people are destined to die, and when King Ning's army enters the city, this Anqing mansion will really become a purgatory on earth!

"kill!"

Zhao Yu looked at the excited civilians rushing towards the city gate, took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

He understood the simple thinking of these commoners, they just wanted to live, and there was nothing wrong with that.

But once the heart softens at this time, it will not only be the civilians in front of them who will die!

And Zhao Yu also knew that if the history he saw in his memory was not a pirated version, then the city of Anqing Mansion would not be broken!
"kill!!"

Before Lu Jianxing could make a sound, Ji Feng who was standing behind Zhao Yu directly drew his knife out of its sheath.

With a movement of his body, he took four or five warriors from the headquarters to pass by the civilians in front of him in an instant, and headed straight for the city cave.

The man who was the first to beat the old city guard to death with a hoe had just touched the gate bolt of the city gate with his hand.

In his mind, he fantasized about the glory and wealth promised to him by General Ning Xianxian outside the city.

brush!
Suddenly, my wrist felt cold, and a sharp pain hit my heart.

Looking fixedly, a man in a brocade robe stared at him with a sneer, and his arm that touched the door bolt had already fallen to the ground.

"kill!"

After Ji Feng cut off the man's arm, the blade sharply turned and took off the heads of the two people beside him.

The warriors who were with him also drew their swords one after another, beheading the people around them.

The smell of blood finally calmed down the civilians who wanted to leave the city.

Ji Feng sneered and stared at the fearful civilians in front of him, firmly suppressing the raging murderous thoughts in his heart.

If Zhao Yu hadn't been watching from a distance, he would have easily killed the hundreds of people present!

However, he knew Zhao Yu, the Shangguan, too well.

If the killing is too heavy, I will definitely be rejected by this 'indecisive' Shangguan.

In this way, his official career will come to an end!

"presumptuous!!"

At this moment, there was a shout from the city road.

Everyone looked up, and the murderous Shen Anliang walked down the city road.

"Master Shen..."

Looking at Shen Anliang who was carrying a long sword with a murderous look on his face, Zhao Yu cupped his fists and saluted this guy for the first time.

"Zhao Zhenfu envoy?"

Looking at Zhao Yu who appeared under the city, Shen Anliang was also taken aback.

According to his understanding, Zhao Yu should have already left the city at this time, the army is overwhelming the city, what is he doing here?
　Today I owe two chapters, plus yesterday’s five chapters, a total of seven chapters, and I will finish it in the next three days.
