If the first sentence was that Su Qi'an was showing them his majestic strength, then the next sentence was enough to make several people feel scared.
Everyone knows that there is a big gap between Su Qi'an and Qingcheng County Sheriff. After the bandit suppression in Yangliu County, Qingcheng County Sheriff and Su Qi'an temporarily stopped fighting and have been in harmony for half a year.
But as subordinates, they all know that there will definitely be a battle between Qingcheng County Sheriff and Su Qi'an, but when this battle will happen and who will attack first, there is a question mark.
But what Su Qian just said was not a joke at all, he was going to take the initiative.
This is no joke, attacking the county guard can affect the whole body behind the scenes.
The governor of Qingcheng County is no better than the little priest. The little priest is in charge of a small Tucheng County, and the people who can be used are a bunch of waste.
But Qingcheng County Governor not only had five thousand soldiers occupying a county town, but also had reinforcements like the high priest nearby.
If he really takes action, the entire county and priest alliance will have to take action, and it will probably attract the attention of the state pastor.
This Su Qi'an, even if he is a noble lord, has no reason and no pointed evidence, and it is just a delusion to try to move the Qingcheng County Sheriff.
Not to mention anything else, Qingcheng County alone is enough for him to drink a pot.
The eyes of the three grain collectors flashed and their expressions changed uncertainly, but before their eyes, at some point, a large number of soldiers emerged from behind them.
Not to capture them, but to bypass them and go directly out of the city.
In their ears, Su Qian'an's voice sounded softly, "Let's go, guys, lead the way. If you are interested, you can see the changes in Qingcheng County's change of ownership."
Su Qi'an also rode a horse and passed directly over the three of them, not worrying at all that the three of them had any intention of sneak attack on him.
How could the three of them have the courage at this time? There were countless soldiers around them, filing past. If they wanted to, it would be trivial to eat just a hundred of them.
More importantly, they were shocked by Su Qian's inexplicable gathering of soldiers.
I originally thought it was a simple food levy, but who would have thought that after levying and levying, I would witness Su Qi'an leading troops to attack Qingcheng County.
This is so fucking crazy, "Su... Lord Su, are you serious?"
Su Qian reined in the horse's rope, paused briefly, and said, "You'll know if it's true or not."
After saying these words, Su Qian's figure quickly disappeared among the soldiers in front.
At this time, the three grain collection officers were convinced that this Su Houye was serious about attacking Qingcheng County. His courage was extremely audacious!
Think about it, there are at least thousands of soldiers gathered here. They are ready at first glance, without any panic, and ready to go out at any time.
I am afraid that only Mr. Su is the only one who has the courage to act at will.
The three of them glanced at Wu Yong, who also looked a little strange. They understood that Su Qi'an's dispatch was probably not informed by anyone except his soldiers. There was no mission arrangement this time.
Although Wu Yong was surprised, he had been with Su Qi'an for a while after all, and he quickly devoted himself to his mission.
The fact that he was not informed of the expedition to attack the city did not mean that he had no mission.
Returning to the county government office as soon as possible, Huang Wenyan and he began to quickly issue an order to impose martial law in Tucheng County according to the previously rehearsed plan.
The militia at the three levels of town, township and village obey orders and are ready at any time, waiting for the next order.
The people in Tucheng County quickly dispersed, and the three grain collection officers in the city had no need to continue collecting grain.
Immediately, he left Tucheng County with his soldiers. If, as Su Qian said, he wanted to get rid of the governor of Qingcheng County and let Qingcheng County change its owner, this would be a big deal.
This is also related to their future alignment. Compared with collecting food, such a thing is nothing.
Su Qi'an, who led the army this time, did not attack Qingcheng County on a whim, but after careful consideration. It was his plan that had been waiting for almost four months, and now it was finally time to take root.
this
The troops dispatched this time were not just one regiment, but three regiments, plus two fierce cavalry battalions.
This is almost all of Su Qi'an's family wealth. One regiment followed Su Qi'an on his expedition to Qingcheng County.
The Second Regiment serves as a rearguard, protecting the safety of the rear of the First Regiment, and also serves as the guard force for the First Regiment after it enters the city.
As for the third regiment, they were heading straight for the high priest's territory. Ermeng's cavalry battalion had a more important mission and needed to take the lead.
The collective dispatch of the three regiments would hardly fail to attract the attention of the county and city.
The goal of this attack was too clear. It went straight to Qingcheng County without any cover-up along the way. It could be said to be a big fanfare. .
At this time, in the county city, in addition to the Qingcheng County Sheriff, there was also the high priest.
The high priest originally did not intend to have too much interaction with the Qingcheng County Sheriff. There was a gap between them during the previous suppression of bandits.
But Naihe couldn't resist the persuasive temptation of Qingcheng County Sheriff, and specially invited the high priest to come to the county to discuss how to deal with Su Qi'an in the future.
Who would have thought that before they implemented their new plan, this Su Qi'an came directly uninvited and brought his own army straight to the county town.
It looked like he was planning to kill them all in one fell swoop.
Hearing the message from his subordinates, the high priest couldn't sit still. Su Qian's behavior was too arrogant.
Didn't he want to fight? The high priest accompanied him.
This time when he came to the county town, he was no longer a mere commander. He had two thousand people in his hands. These two thousand people were all elite natives. Their combat power may not be as good as that of soldiers, but they would not be one-sided.
Moreover, there are also two thousand soldiers stationed in the county city, a total of four thousand people, plus the strong city wall of the county city.
The high priest wanted to see how Su Qian planned to capture them with more than a thousand people in his hands.
The high priest stood up and wanted to lead his men to the city wall to have a fight with Su Qi'an, but was stopped by the Qingcheng County Sheriff.
No matter how you say it, they are all local gangsters from a county. They rushed to the city wall, no matter how you say it, it is disrespectful to them.
Even if we really want to take the lead, we haven't reached that moment yet.
Su Qi'an led a regiment straight to the county town in good order. It was definitely not for fighting.
Whether it is the comparison of troops or the terrain, if more than a thousand people come to attack the county, what is the difference between this and seeking death.
Instead of doing this, the best way is to stop quietly and wait until Su Qi'an arrives before making plans.
The high priest was a little dissatisfied with the Qingcheng County Sheriff's actions. In his opinion, this move was like a sign of weakness.
Repeatedly before, some people already felt afraid of Su Qi'an.
He is the high priest of Jiaozhou, and he can crush Su Qi'an in terms of territory and population.
Blind tolerance will only encourage Su Qi'an's arrogance. The Qingcheng County Sheriff sighed and said something to the high priest.
The high priest, who was still angry just now, has obviously lost a lot of his anger.
Looking at Qingcheng County Sheriff, he said, "Hmph, I'll trust you for the time being. If this guy named Su doesn't act according to your wishes, don't blame me for leading people to destroy him."
After saying that, the high priest left the room. The Qingcheng County Sheriff shook his head without saying anything, and after a while he stood up and left as well.
As for Su Qi'an, the journey was vast and he did not hide his whereabouts and was not afraid of ambushes.
Su Qi'an's reputation was resounding in Qingcheng County. Those who dared to ambush him were bandits, but the bandits in Qingcheng County had long been wiped out by Su Qi'an.
As for the so-called Qingcheng County Sheriff sending troops to ambush them, that is even more impossible.
First of all, they took the official road. The official road was basically flat, and there were few suitable ambush points around.
And if we really wanted to ambush, we would have to mobilize at least two to three thousand people to possibly accomplish it.
Su Qi'an's Dongshan Army had a combat strength they had never seen before, and they couldn't handle it without two or three people.
If two or three thousand men were really dispatched, what would it be called an ambush? It would be a direct confrontation.
Su Qi'an came all the way, and there were reconnaissance scouts behind him and behind him.
Further behind the First Regiment, the Second Regiment was also following, and no one with any thinking would send troops to ambush them.
Along the way, Su Qi'an's army moved smoothly.
Without encountering any obstacles, they quickly arrived at Qingcheng County.
It's just that the gate of the county city has been closed for a long time. There are many more soldiers patrolling back and forth on the city wall. You can feel the tense atmosphere emanating from the city wall without getting close.
Su Qian's army stopped about a mile away from the county town.
Just as Song Biao was about to take people with him, he went to shout a message when two huge posters fell on the city wall.
Two sentences were clearly written on the huge banner.
"Mr. Su has come a long way, so he can go to the city to have a talk. The county guard and the high priest will prepare some fine wine to entertain Mr. Su."
These two sentences made Song Biao startled. He always felt that there must be an ambush waiting for them when they entered the city this time.
They came with an army. Anyone who encountered this situation and invited them to enter the city would prohibit the army from entering the city.
But the Qingcheng County Sheriff was nice. Not only did he not ban them, but he seemed to allow them to enter the city together.
What is their purpose in coming to the county town like this? Anyone with a little bit of brains will know what they want to do.
However, the governor of Qingcheng County did the opposite. Even if there was no ambush, no one would believe it.
Song Biao looked at Su Qi'an and said, "Sir, tell me, let me take the brothers to explore the bottom first. If the thorn is hard enough, I won't believe it when I let the second group. Our two groups combined, we still have No less than Qingcheng County."
Song Biao's proposal was rejected by Su Qi'an. He shook his head and said, "If we really do this, I won't lead the troops so openly. It's not cost-effective to attack by force."
"Since our county governor invited them and they are not afraid, what should we be afraid of?"
"Don't worry, it's not easy to ambush us in the city and try to eat us in one go."
"Don't you always want to know where Tong Zhan, Su Yong and other direct companies are going? After entering the city, you will know today."
Seeing Su Qian's playful expression, Song Biao was thoughtful.
When he came to his senses, Su Qi'an had already led a group of people towards the county town, and Song Biao quickly sent people to follow.
Although Su Qi'an was so confident, Song Biao did not dare to be careless and remained on guard at all times.
If anything goes wrong, the soldiers around him will protect Su Qi'an and evacuate as quickly as possible.
Su Qi'an's life was absolutely the first priority in each of their hearts.
Su Yong's first regiment was dispatched this time, formerly known as the Vanguard. They were the most powerful and were a group of veterans who had experienced hundreds of battles. With them, Song Biao could feel at ease.
