Chapter 67: Insufficient Crossbow Arrows
Zhaohan was shocked, the Huaiyang army had really attacked in, and had already attacked here.

Zhaoyi's eyes widened too, she just met Ying Xuan in desperation, but with the mentality of trying to die, she didn't expect to be saved!

The county captain not far away raised his hands and said hello, but Ying Xuan didn't see the county guard.

He raised his eyebrows and asked Zhaohan.

"Where are the other members of your Zhao clan?"

Hearing Ying Xuan's voice, Zhao Han came back to his senses and said in a deep voice.

"I'm not lying to you! It's true that there are no more survivors in the Zhao family, and they have all been killed by those beasts!"

Ying Xuan glanced at him, seeing his firm face, he didn't say anything else.

"Then lead the way! Let me see how capable those Yue people are!"

Seeing that Ying Xuan didn't investigate carefully, Zhao Han hurriedly lowered his head and moved forward. In order to prevent his wound from getting worse, Zhang Han asked someone to lead him a horse.

Before Ying Xuan walked out of the courtyard, he raised his head and glanced at the roof.

The thirty Imperial Guards immediately left a few of them where they were, and after everyone moved eastward, they quietly returned to the main hall of the Zhao Family Courtyard.

……

The big guy is annoyed at the moment.

After the team gathered, he came back again to follow Chang Lin.

I wanted to ask about the arrest of the wife, but I just rushed all the way and didn't see a single daughter-in-law.

But I didn't want to, a follower stuck behind me.

When I was resting not far from the city gate, I came over to chat with a shy face.

Now they are starting again, and their mouths are still talking.

Talk about giving yourself the position of a thousand generals and how much salary you will receive!

Even though I said I was no longer interested, I still tried to persuade him.

If it wasn't for the fact that everyone around him was a little afraid of him, even the big guy wanted to give him a kick.

Fortunately, when the big man finally couldn't bear it, Chang Lin saw it.

"We are all soldiers personally summoned by the imperial censor! The imperial censor once said that if you violate military orders, you will be killed without mercy!"

"If you do this, you will drive two cows to death!"

"Why don't you go directly to Yushi and tell Yushi that if Yushi agrees, Er Niu will definitely go with you!"

The Sheriff's smile froze on his face!

"A person from the imperial censor?"

Chang Lin and Er Niu nodded together.

"Then if you didn't tell me earlier, I would have wasted my breath!"

The county guard turned around angrily and left, leaving the helpless two cows behind.

Chang Lin was a little happy, from which he could see the status of the censor.

This is the head of a county. Even the censor should not have such a strong intimidation force to make him turn around and leave as soon as he hears his name.

Either this censor has a very high status, or he is a person with real power.

Now it seems that it should be the latter. Maybe after he rescues his family and can still work under Yushi's command, that is really a great opportunity.

The county lieutenant looked at the returning sheriff and asked seriously.

"How about it, can you win me over?"

The Sheriff shook his head angrily.

"What the hell, he's from the censor!"

"You tell me why the censor can do anything!"

"He brought a total of 200 people! He said he brought food back with him!"

"Say he's entering the city! He's entering the city!"

"Talk about taking down the city gate! The city gate will be broken!"

"Good guy! Chosen Son?"

As soon as these words came out, the county lieutenant who originally wanted to laugh secretly coughed twice.

"You can't say that nonsense!"

"Be careful if someone listens to you, your life will be in danger!"

"The one who is ordered by the sky is the one in the Zijin Palace. If you say this, not only will you be unlucky, but I am afraid that the imperial censor will be cheated to death by you!"

The county guard also reacted and hurriedly kept silent.

"Hey, don't you want to catch me, why are you reminding me so kindly!"

The county lieutenant rolled his eyes.

"I'm catching you to prevent you from using your official position to pressure me in the future! I'm not trying to trick you to death!"

The sheriff laughed and didn't care. If the two of them didn't tell the joke, no one would know.

At this time, it was in the corner of the courtyard separated by a wall.

A pair of eyes opened suddenly, and took out a pen to write down under the bright moonlight.

"The young master broke his longevity in one night, which is unprecedented!"

"The governor of Huaiyang exclaimed the chosen one!"

After recording, he raised his head and sighed slightly.

"It seems that this person is also full of wisdom and can guess the truth so accurately!"

"I have to move around more with him in the future!"

Sigouzai felt that he had found the same kind, and waved his arms excitedly.

"Listen to his corner!"

……

Ying Xuan walked in the middle of the team.

I just ordered to continue the attack to the east, and it went surprisingly well.

The governor and lieutenant didn't say a word.

Then the casualties and remaining troops were counted.

The Cheng and Du Wei of the Huaiyang Army rushed to receive orders, which made Ying Xuan a little confused.

"What happened to them?"

Zhang Han whispered back.

"Your decisive commanding ability is admired by everyone, and they are convinced!"

Ying Xuan frowned. If it were ten days ago, he would have danced with excitement after hearing such words.

But now for some reason, there is no fluctuation in my heart.

It didn't take the Prime Minister long to sort out the damage to the Huaiyang army.
"Report to the Censor! More than [-] yuan was damaged at the gate of the Huaiyang Army."

"More than 4000 people were lost after entering the city."

"Today there are 5000 left, but thousands are wounded!"

"The real intact combat strength is less than [-]!"

Ying Xuan nodded and frowned. The casualties were greater than expected, but he did not stop the attack because of this.

The momentum of the soldiers breaking the city is still there, and they can still fight at this time.

Once a long rest occurs, the wounded's negative emotions will spread, and it will not be the 01:30 point where the combat effectiveness will be reduced.

Looking around, there were many wounded who had not injured their legs. They gritted their teeth and endured the pain and followed the army eastwards.

Ying Xuan didn't speak. He felt that his blood seemed to be getting colder and colder.

But turning around and looking to the east, those people couldn't wait any longer!

"There are not enough arrow clusters. The crossbow arrows carried by the army are almost exhausted. Even if a lot of arrow bodies are recovered, most of the arrow clusters are damaged.

"I'm afraid that the crossbow phalanx will lose its effectiveness next!"

Cheng's words really made everyone anxious.

The strong crossbow has always been a huge advantage of the Qin army. Once this long-range suppression power is lost, the next battle will be even more difficult.

Ying Xuan frowned, wondering what to do.

Zhaohan said hurriedly next to him.

"Jing's family has been making arrows for the rebels. I do know the location of the crossbow workshop, and it's not in the east of the city! I just don't know how many are left!"

Ying Xuan's eyes lit up, all the arrows made by Qin Dynasty were of the same standard, even if it was made privately by the Jing family, they would not specially make other models.

The siege was so fast this time, and it took only three hours until now. The opponent had no time to evacuate, and there must be a lot of arrows clustering around.

He ordered the army to stay where they were eating.

The carriages that were robbed along the way were brought in, and the money inside was rewarded and asked to be distributed by the county guard.

He led a hundred people and Zhaohan towards the north of the city.

The sheriff looked at the treasures in several large boxes, and blinked in a daze.

What is the identity of the censor?He doesn't seem to be interested in money at all.

However, this approach is indeed attractive.

The soldiers who saw this scene all around were whispering.

"Such a big-hearted man, he really deserves to be able to achieve the position of censor at such a young age!"

"Indeed, if you are so capable and don't like money, you must be a powerful person in the future."

When Zhang Han heard these words before leaving, the corners of his mouth twitched subconsciously.

Although he didn't know why Ying Xuan became generous.

But he clearly remembered how this man would fight for his gold even in front of His Majesty in the Zijin Palace!
……

Sitting in the first carriage, Zhaohan looked at the lifeless Shouchun City under the night, trembling in his heart.

A few months ago, this was still a vibrant giant city, but now it has become like this.

"How are the other two tribes doing now?"

Ying Xuan asked.

Zhaohan replied respectfully.

"Those people first controlled the county guards through the Qu family branch, and then began to infiltrate the three clans."

"Actually, not long after the rebellion, the three clans basically lost control of Shouchun City."

"The Qu family branch has become the puppet of those Yue people. The Jing family still has some self-control, but their private soldiers have also been transferred away. Apart from the few members of their own family around them, they don't have much ability to resist!"

Ying Xuan nodded.

It seems that there is no need to worry about the other three clans, as long as you catch that guy, you can have a whole family!
It didn't take long for them to reach the place.

A cluttered yard is littered with scattered farm equipment.

Zhaohan stepped forward to lead the way.

"It's just a cover!"

He opened a room in the courtyard.

Then he ordered the soldiers to push open several cabinets with back panels.

The bright flames shone out, and Ying Xuan's eyes widened immediately.

The room was actually an empty semi-underground space.

Many of the stoves inside had not been extinguished.

What's even stranger is that there is a man standing motionless in front of the fire with his back to everyone.
