Chapter 2

The reason for fear is naturally fear of death.

After all, Zhao Xiang is just an ordinary person.Even with knowledge beyond nearly 2000 years, he is just an otaku.

On the battlefield of life and death, if it weren't for the fact that the county guard's swordsmen had been supervising the battle these two days, if Zhao Xiang hadn't personally seen a small school be beheaded by the fierce swordsman because he retreated timidly.

I'm afraid that Zhao Xiang would have found an opportunity to sneak down to the top of the city and escaped.

Oh my god!Zhao Xiang was angry in his heart.

However, complaining is useless, no matter how unwilling Zhao Xiang is.You can only keep your spirits up and be ready to avoid the sporadic cold arrows from below the city.Always be ready to meet the siege operations that the Yellow Turban Army may launch at any time.

The originally dull eyes also became sharper.Now that you are here, you have to live well!This is the only thought in Zhao Xiang's mind at the moment.

As for the imperial figure hegemony?Horse riding the world?The dead are not entitled to possession.

Wancheng prefect's mansion, all officials big and small in Wancheng were in it, and the atmosphere seemed oppressive and heavy.

Chu Gong sat in the upper seat, looking at the silent subordinates below.With a silent sigh, he said:
"Everyone, the moth bandits are very powerful outside the city. The county magistrate Qin Jie has gone out to ask for help, but the military equipment in the county is slack. Just now the county magistrate reported that there are only [-] arrows left in the arsenal. In addition, according to the thief Cao Shi's report, Zhang Mancheng, the leader of the moth bandits Looting many craftsmen, they are building ladders and wells. If there is no accident, it will be even more difficult to defend the city next time. I wonder if you have any good strategies for defending the city? Can you make Wancheng worry-free?"

After the words fell, Zhang Xun, the county captain, immediately came out and said: "The moth thief is powerful, just because it engulfs the people of good families. The lower officials heard that the court was very angry because of the moth thief's uprising. He ordered all states and counties to kill the moth thief and implicate them. Moth The thief's arrogance became more and more arrogant. The next official thinks..."

Having said that, the county lieutenant's voice paused, and then said: "The lower official thinks that the envoy can issue a notice to order ordinary people not to cooperate. Anyone who violates it will implicate his family! In this way, the bandit army may disperse on its own."

"No!" Before the county lieutenant finished speaking, Li Ru, the county magistrate, stepped forward and said:
"What is the difference between what the county lieutenant said and Zhao'an? The imperial court strictly prohibits Zhao'an. Please think twice!"

"This..." Originally, Chu Gong's eyes lit up when he heard Zhang Xun's suggestion. This might also be a strategy to defeat the enemy.But Li Ru's words put Chu Gong in a dilemma.

Zhang Xun's eyes flashed fiercely when he heard the words: "Li Ru! Since you said no, how can you retreat?!"

What Li Ru said just now vaguely implied that Zhang Xun had an affair with the thief, and the relationship between the two was not harmonious.At this moment, Zhang Xun was very annoyed at being demolished by his old rival.

"No!" Li Ru's answer was very straightforward: "The army in the county is slack, and there are few invincible soldiers. The soldiers have been lazy for a long time, and the only way is now. Wenyou only asks you to spare the county treasury and spend a lot of money to motivate the warriors. In this way, it may be safe for a while, and we will stand by and wait for help."

Li Ru's remarks can be said to put most of the responsibility on Zhang Xun, who is in charge of the military in the county.

"Zhuzi!!" Zhang Xun was furious when he heard this.Go straight forward and give Li Ru an old punch.

Poor Li Rujie, a civil official, although the Han Dynasty favors martial arts, civil officials also practice swordsmanship from time to time.But where is Li Ru's opponent to Zhang Xun who was born as a martial artist?Soon he was beaten and complained repeatedly.

"enough!"

Facing the farce in front of him, Chu Gong's eyelids also twitched violently a few times.Angrily shouted:
"At present, you don't want to serve the country to repel the bandit army. Instead, you will stage a full-scale military action in front of me? Order! County lieutenant Zhang Xun was lawless and committed murder in court. He was ordered to return to his house to think about his mistakes! Report his words and deeds to the court Deal with it. Demoted Li Ru as a city gate soldier, guarding the city for three days! Only after three days can he be reinstated. The functions of the two are temporarily assigned to the thief Cao Shi and Yi Cao (ps: the official name is followed by history or the number of words is too long, so in the future Official names are referred to as Cao.) Take charge! Now, get these two off!"

"No!" Soon a guard entered the hall and took the two of them down.Chu Gong pressed his forehead, thinking for a moment.finally said:
"Just do as Zhang Xun said, call out to the outside of the city and shoot the book, and inform the kidnapped children of good families to return to the house quickly, and those who violate it will implicate their families. In addition, Li Ru's suggestion is also good, so that Jin Cao immediately opened the county. Ku. Reward the soldiers in the city for their merits. Hu Cao recruited warriors in the city to defend against the bandits. That’s all for now, let’s go.”

After hearing the words, everyone saluted and retired.

At the top of Wancheng, Zhao Xiang was still working hard to repair the female wall.

Suddenly a school lieutenant led a soldier and a scholar with a bruised nose and a swollen face came to Zhao Xiang and said to Zhao Xiang: "You are Zhao Xiang? (ps: "Ru" is really awkward, so I will use "you" from now on. )”

Seeing him nodding, he continued:
"Two days ago when you attacked the city, you beheaded six thieves on the east wall. Your envoy ordered you to be promoted to be the head of the army and lead the team. The personnel will make up for you within two days. These are your tokens and documents. The bounty is six taels, and I will receive it at the county treasury with the token document."

Zhao Xiang was stunned for a moment when he heard the words.It's true that I was defending the city at Dongchengtou two days ago, but when did I kill six thieves?
I have been frightened to the ground and dare not move... If it weren't for the county soldiers fighting hard to drive the yellow scarf off the wall.Now I am afraid that I am already the soul of a yellow scarf soldier.

This can also be promoted? ?Zhao Xiang began to feel a little like a time traveler.
