"Open the door! Open the city gate quickly!"
You can feel the change of time best at the beach, because you can clearly see the sunrise and sunset, and you can see the sun and the sky changing colors together.
Those people arrived after lunch. It took the Infantry Division a while to deal with them, and Xin Ciying took another while to interrogate them.
It took a long time for everyone to cut off the man's hand and send Xin Ciying to the gate of Mingzhou City.
Seeing that the sunset was about to fall into the sea, the shadows of the imperial guards in front of the city gate stretched very long.
None of them paid attention to the bodies on the ground, because at this time, there were more important things to do.
"Open the door! We are from the Infantry Department!"
If we were in Lin'an, they were the only ones in the Infantry Division who had always stopped others. It was the first time that we were stopped by others like this today.
No matter how many more than 400 people shouted until their throats became hoarse, the Mingzhou City Gate remained tightly closed with no intention of opening it.
"Master Jun, stop shouting."
Also turned away were the people who had just gotten off the merchant ship:
"We have been waiting here for so long, but they still refuse to let us in... Just now their prefect said that Mingzhou will not be open today."
Don't open the door...
Everyone, including Yu Hou, was extremely anxious.
Not to mention this person’s identity, even the deputy commander of the Infantry Army Department must respect him, and he has also seen officials beheading people with his own eyes...
Just take the fact that at his age he dared to kill the enemy first,
It was he who saved the more than 400 people in the Infantry Division.
Looking at the heads flashing across the city wall, Yu Hou knew that there was always someone here.
But they just avoided me and refused to open the door.
He pulled out his knife and slashed it on the city wall, causing sparks to fly and leaving a white mark on the wall:
"We are fighting outside today, and now the old gentleman is injured. Instead of helping, everyone in Mingzhou has turned us away. What's the point of this?"
"Everyone is from the Song Dynasty and is a soldier. Even if you don't let me in, you should still take this gentleman in..."
As he spoke, he looked at Xin Ciying's right foot with concern... They had wrapped it in cloth many times, but the bleeding had not stopped and the blue cloth had turned black. .
"Everyone! I know that you are also obeying orders. If we had not encountered such difficulties, we would never embarrass you! Whether it is money or life, please speak up! As long as we can offer it, we will never refuse! "
"I just hope that you brothers will take your husband into the city and find a doctor. I, the infantry department, will take care of the Mingzhou brothers!"
He retreated far away, kept walking around, and kept shouting to the top... Maybe he couldn't stand it anymore, and someone finally answered him:
"General, don't be impatient. Wait for me to send a message!"
Although it was not put in immediately, there is hope at least.
Yu Hou bowed towards the man, hoping that he would hurry up.
At this time, Magistrate Fan was hosting a banquet in the city, celebrating with the Mingzhou gentry.
This tremendous achievement fell into his own hands.
Fan Tong felt that compared with Fan Wenzheng, who was Yunwen and Yunwu, he was no less generous.
What a coincidence, everyone's surname is Fan.
"Thanks to the presence of Magistrate Fan, Mingzhou is safe and sound. Now, as an elder in Mingzhou, I would like to offer you a drink, Lord Magistrate!"
"What Wang Yuanwai said is true. We are indeed lucky to have Magistrate Fan as our parent official!"
"Zhifu Fan is a talented prime minister!"
…
The flatterers came one after another, making Fan Tong uncomfortable.
When he saw the guards at the city gate arriving, he reluctantly came down from the sky:
"What's the matter?"
The man conveyed the words of the Infantry Division in detail. Fan Tong swung his wine glass and thought for a while.
This harassment by the Jin people came at a strange time.
These people are waiting here, as if they already know.
But no matter what, there are very few ships coming to Mingzhou City now. If they are allowed to stay any longer...
Humph, I invited you a few days ago but you didn’t come, but today you came to the door by yourself!
There is a wall blocking the city, so it naturally gets dark faster. Mingzhou City had already lit up the lights half an hour ago.
Having made up his mind, Magistrate Fan whispered:
"It's dark and I can't tell people. Please forgive me, those Qiu Ba people!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
He was about to continue drinking, but when he saw that the guard was not moving, Fan Tong cursed:
"Why can't you understand? What are you doing standing around here?"
"Hurry up! Don't ruin everyone's happiness!"
The guard was like an eggplant beaten by frost, completely wilted.
Looking at the other people on the city gate looking at him hopefully, he shook his head slightly.
"General!"
Yu Hou and others had just found out the origin of the body outside the door, and they were so angry that they stamped their feet several times...Xin Ci stamped the other one.
The gold miners were trying to protect the people of the Song Dynasty, but they did not die in the hands of the gold men, but died in the hands of their own people.
Hearing the man's voice at this time, Yu Hou suppressed his anger and said: "Brother, can you open the city gate?"
"General... the magistrate said that it's dark and you can't recognize people... and we just encountered a golden attack, so we have to be careful."
"General, please forgive me. The city gate will be opened tomorrow."
Yu Hui was extremely angry and was about to curse, but Xin Ciying supported the shoulder of the sergeant next to him and stood up:
"It doesn't matter, I have experienced the evil here in Mingzhou."
"Don't be angry because of me. Please keep your anger for the golden people in the north."
"As for what's here..." Xin Ciying looked up and stared at the two big characters 'Mingzhou' on the city gate, "Do you still remember the story I told about the officials who cut off the ministers?"
"I will report this to Your Majesty."
Yu Hou lowered his head and remained silent for a long time before saying: "The thief is about to leave. I don't know if he will come again... I will wait here and watch. Sir, please go back to Lin'an first."
Xin Ciying knew that if he could say this, he would never run away like he did today again.
He smiled and said: "I also plan to go back... I will leave this place to you, I can rest assured."
"Please don't worry, sir! We will never retreat until we die!"
Yu Hou shouted loudly, and the other four hundred people also shouted after him:
"Please don't worry, sir!"
"In this way, we have a long future."
Without two people to accompany the old man... it would be impossible to ride a horse, but walking by water would be faster.
When they could no longer be seen, Yu Hou turned around again and pointed the tip of his knife towards Mingzhou City:
"I've recorded today's events!"
He didn't even say a curse word. Instead, the guards at the city gate saw more than 400 knives pointed at him, and the knives were still stained with dried blood...
Everyone felt a chill.
