Agents of the Three Kingdoms

Wuji County, West Gate Tower.

Guo Jia and the veterans rushed to the gate of the city, and their eyes fell on the hundreds of soldiers gathered in the city.

This is already all the troops in Wuji County.

Old, weak and remnant soldiers stood in the door, staggering here and there, some of them didn't even have a steel knife in their hands, many of them had worn-out armor, looked depressed and frightened, and had no intention of fighting.Seeing this scene, Guo Jia couldn't help shaking his head.He pondered for a moment, and ordered: "Clean up the people in the city, and let all the people retreat. At the same time, open the city gate, open the gate."

The old soldier was taken aback, and quickly persuaded him: "No, sir. There are only a few soldiers guarding the city, and they hope to close the gate to stop the Heishan bandits. Once the gate is opened, the Heishan bandits will easily enter the city!"

Guo Jia sneered, and asked back: "Closing the city gate, can you stop the Black Mountain bandits?"

The old soldier sighed, shook his head and replied: "The soldiers defending the city are all remnants, without weapons and without combat effectiveness. With our small number of people, we will definitely not be able to stop them."

Guo Jia chuckled and said, "Since you can't stop it, what are you doing closing the door? Opening the door, I have my own arrangements."

Seeing that Guo Jia looked confident, the veteran no longer hesitated, and ordered the gatekeeper to open the city gate.Guo Jia nodded in satisfaction, and continued to order: "No one is allowed to stay at the city gate, and no one is required to guard the city tower. I can be alone on the tower. You are hiding in the city, and you are not allowed to come out without my order."

"This……"

The veteran hesitated, thinking that it would be all right to open the door, and there was no defense at all, which made people worry.

Guo Jia's eyes turned cold, and he said beyond doubt: "Go and prepare!"

The veteran didn't dare to disobey the order, so he ordered to go down immediately.

Guo Jia went up to the gate tower alone, stood on the gate tower and waited quietly.At this moment, what Guo Jia needs is time, to delay enough time for Wang Lei.He had nothing to do, observing the layout of the city wall in Wuji County.

"What a mess!"

After scanning it once, Guo Jia couldn't help shaking his head.

Nuoda's Wuji County city tower doesn't even have any defensive equipment.

"Boom!!"

In the distance outside the city, there was the sound of an earthquake.

Guo Jia looked up into the distance, and where his eyes touched, a black line squirmed in the distance, approaching the county seat.Guo Jia knew that the Black Mountain bandits were coming, and he was not afraid in the face of danger, his expression was as usual, and there was a touch of excitement in his eyes.

Outside the city, among the Black Mountain bandits.

The leader of the army was named Zhang Yan, and he was the leader of the Black Mountain Army.This time he came out of the mountains and surrounded Wuji County. Zhang Yan wanted to replenish money and food to increase the grain reserves of the Black Mountain Army.The army stopped outside the city, Zhang Yan waved his hand and stopped the generals under his command from stepping forward, a look of solemnity flashed in his eyes.Because the gate of Wuji County was opened unexpectedly, and the city was empty.

Such a situation made Zhang Yan feel an unusual atmosphere.

Previously, Zhang Yan visited the counties near Wuji County, and without exception, the gates were closed.Zhang Yan was not used to meeting someone who opened the door suddenly, and felt that something was wrong.

Zhang Yan looked up and saw a young boy standing on the tower.He thought for a while, dragged his knife forward, rode under the tower and shouted loudly: "Who is on the tower?"

"Yingchuan Guo Jia!"

Guo Jia chuckled and answered loudly.

"..."

Zhang Yan thought carefully, never heard of such a person in Wuji County.

After a short pause, Zhang Yan raised his head again, and said loudly: "This general, Zhang Yan, led the troops through Wuji County this time. Because the army lacks food, grass and weapons, it needs supplies from your county. You immediately prepare [-] stones of grain and grass, and [-] stones of food and grass. A set of armor, a thousand steel knives, and a million dollars, I will lead the troops to leave immediately. Otherwise, the consequences will be at your own risk."

Guo Jia took a deep breath, a big breath.

Not to mention millions of dollars, the county government can't even get [-] dollars.

Not even a hundred shi of grain and grass.

As for the high-quality armor and steel knives, the weapons in the treasury had been sold out by the previous county magistrate and officials, and they were all empty. What was left to Wang Lei, Guo Jia, and Du Ji was a mess.

It cannot be fulfilled under any conditions.

Guo Jia's thoughts turned sharply, and he continued: "General Zhang, the county magistrate knows that you have worked hard to lead troops, and admires General Zhang's ability to lead troops. But General Zhang doesn't know, because of General Zhang's reputation, officials in the county government and The county magistrate has already fled with food and money, and the new county magistrate just took office today, and he has no money! I heard that the neighboring counties in Wuji County have a lot of money, food and grass, and asking them in the name of General Zhang will definitely succeed. .”

When Zhang Yan heard this, her heart fluttered.

This kid is quite interesting.

This general has a great reputation and should be respected wherever he goes.

"General, let's go to Xinshi County to the west of Wuji County and Hanchang County to the east. The county magistrates of the two counties saw you, gave you very little money and food, and then said that the people in the neighboring counties are stupid. There is a lot of money. Now, the young people on the tower say the same thing. In my opinion, these officials are cunning and cunning, deliberately deceiving us."

General Du under Zhang Yan's command looked resentful and suspicious.

"Humph, this kid is quite young. He is different from the old foxes in Xinshi County and Hanchang County, and he does not seem to be a fake. Besides, we have already received news that officials from Wuji County escaped with money and food. He did not Tell lies."

Zhang Yan held the knife in his hand and looked proud.

Yu Du's eyes rolled, and he said again: "General, the boy on the tower said that there is a new county magistrate. If the new county magistrate can come, he must have money. Let's call out the county magistrate and extort some money and food. .At the same time, let the county magistrate call out the head of the Zhen family and let the Zhen family contribute money. Let's come out, we can't go back empty-handed!"

Zhang Yan nodded in praise and said, "You're smart, just do it like this!"

"Boy, where is the county magistrate? Let him come out."

Zhang Yan roared loudly, with an imposing manner.

Guo Jia rolled his eyes, and immediately replied: "General Zhang, the county magistrate knew that you came to Wuji County, and he was very contradictory! He heard the general's reputation and wanted to cooperate with the general. However, the county magistrate Thinking of his new official appointment and the trust of Mu Hanfu of Jizhou, he should be devoted to his duties and defend Wuji County to the death. The county magistrate was caught in a dilemma, and after much deliberation, he decided to adopt the method of respecting the general most, and planned to fight the general fairly. At present, the county magistrate is recruiting soldiers to prepare for battle. If the general wants to enter the city, the county magistrate has ordered the gates to be opened, and General Zhang can come in at any time. If the general is willing to fight fairly, please wait for the general."

These words, with compliments and provocations, made Zhang Yan feel at ease.

Zhang Yan burst into laughter after hearing this.

For a person who dared to resist, Zhang Yan would not have any good looks.But after Zhang Yan heard Guo Jia's words, he felt even more elated, because he felt that the new county magistrate respected him!

This is good!

Moreover, the county magistrate is a person who is loyal to the country, and there is nothing he can do if he chooses to fight.

honourable!

Impulsive in Zhang Yan's heart, he immediately said: "I will respect such a righteous person. As you said, I will wait outside the city for him to bring troops. After I defeat the county magistrate, I will let the people inside the city The country gentry donated money and food."

Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief and finally stabilized Zhang Yan.

Yu Du shook his head and said, "General, this is obviously a scheme to delay time."

Zhang Yan waved his hand and said, "That boy has already made it clear, and I know it very well. However, this newly appointed county magistrate deserves respect. Isn't it worth waiting to meet such a person?"

Yu Po stomped his feet angrily, and cursed: "Students are full of bad water, too bad."

"Da da!!"

Not long after, there was the sound of horseshoes in the city, and Wang Lei carried a black gold snake spear and brought three hundred guards to attack fiercely.

Seeing this, Guo Jia thought to himself that it would depend on your performance next.
