After they came over, Nie Chen explained a few words and then asked them to change into enemy clothes.
Qi Huan explained,
"After you arrive in the county town, you can find an opportunity to go to Dongxing Restaurant, which is located in the east of the city. It is the stronghold of the Shadow Guard. When you get there, knock on the table five times and they will understand your identity.
If you have any information, you can tell them. We will contact you through them. If your identity is discovered, you can also escape there and they will help you hide it. "
"Thank you, Brother Qi."
After a dozen people changed their clothes, they picked up their knives and hurried southward.
Then, the soldiers cleaned the battlefield, buried the bodies, and returned to the north.
When passing by the county guard's camp, I picked up the supplies left by the county guard, such as tents, food, weapons, etc. It can be said that I returned home with a full load.
By the time we returned to the county seat, it was almost dark.
Nie Chen asked the soldiers to return to the camp with supplies, and he led the generals straight to the county government office.
When he arrived at the gate of the county government office, he saw a huge tiger tied at the gate, eating a corpse.
He looks like a barbarian.
Seeing this scene, Nie Chen frowned slightly.
King Pingxi has entered the city?
Walking into the gate of the county government office, he saw his own soldiers and some guards in black armor.
Looking up, in the middle of the county government hall, there was the coffin of the head of the family, and there was a man sitting on the threshold of the door.
The man was wearing black armor, his helmet was placed at his feet, his long black hair was simply tied up, he was sitting with a big golden sword, holding a handful of fried beans in his hand, lowering his head and eating as if there was no one else around.
And beside him, there were still a group of generals standing. Nie Chen saw his old acquaintances Yue Dongwen and Chai Rong.
Da Zhuang stood respectfully aside. Inside, an old man was offering incense to the headmaster. Looking at his back, he looked like Mr. Jin.
Weng Qiuchan was standing in the yard, and beside him was a beautiful woman wearing light armor. The woman looked to be in her twenties, with a heroic appearance, and was chatting with Weng Qiuchan.
Seeing Nie Chen and others coming in, Weng Qiuchan quickly stepped forward and said,
"Husband, you are back. Come and see the prince."
Weng Qiuchan stretched out her palm and pointed at the man sitting at the door.
This is King Pingxi, who sits on the land of eight counties and dominates the northwest of the empire!
Nie Chen walked forward, held his hands and said,
"Nie Chen pays homage to King Pingxi!"
At this time, King Pingxi also raised his head, and Nie Chen saw his appearance clearly.
This man was probably in his thirties, with starry eyebrows and sharp eyes, with sharp edges and corners, and an air of indifference to all living beings in his eyes, as if nothing could stir his emotions.
Putting aside any identity and rumors, Nie Chen knew from one look at the other party that the other party must be an extremely powerful person.
Seeing King Ping Xi raise his head, the generals who were chatting just now also immediately stopped and stood up straight.
King Ping Xi looked at Nie Chen, and Nie Chen felt as if his soul was being stung.
"You didn't catch up, did you?"
King Pingxi lowered his head again and asked while eating beans.
Nie Chen was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said,
"We didn't catch up. We don't have many cavalry."
"Yeah, but we still have to chase him. At least we can seize some supplies and scare him."
Nie Chen was a little confused about King Ping Xi's character and what he meant, so he remained silent.
King Pingxi poured the remaining fried beans in his hand, blew off the dry skin, then put a handful into his mouth and stood up.
Only then did Nie Chen see that the other party's hands were covered in blood. It must have been the enemy's blood.
How did he mix his blood and eat solid food?
King Pingxi walked up to Nie Chen. They were both the same height, but their auras were completely different.
Nie Chen said,
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for coming to rescue us this time. Nie Chen and all the soldiers are grateful."
"No need for you to thank me."
King Pingxi said calmly with a cold expression,
I told the old man this sentence, "Brothers are jealous of each other and resist their insults outside the wall." The old man also kept this sentence in his heart.
But this sentence hurt him and made him trust Liu Hu.
Therefore, I have to come over and help you kill the barbarians and prove to the old man that this sentence is correct and he is not wrong either. "
King Pingxi turned around and walked into the hall. Mr. Jin lit three sticks of incense and handed them to King Pingxi.
King Pingxi took the incense, inserted it into the incense burner, looked at the coffin in front of him that smelled of corpse, and said,
"The old man often mentioned you in his letters to me, saying that you were capable and ambitious, that you could invent many powerful weapons, that you were very smart, and that he had found a good son-in-law.
He also said, even though you only have a small Qingfeng Village now, you love the people like your own son, are popular among the people, know how to use people well, and are good at winning people's hearts. In the future, you will definitely be a talent who can conquer the world. "
He turned around, and the other generals went over to offer incense.
King Pingxi walked up to Nie Chen and said,
"The old man is very accurate in judging people. If he said you have the ability to conquer the world, then you have it.
Then, one day in the future, you will also become my enemy. Shouldn't I, the king, take advantage of your fledgling period to directly eliminate this sign of causing trouble to the world? "
"My lord! You want it!"
Weng Qiuchan was very anxious when he saw this, and immediately rushed over, but was held back by the woman beside him.
All we can do is be anxious.
Da Zhuang also came over and stood behind Nie Chen.
Ma Niubai, Lin Guang, Wang Hao, Qi Huan, and Liang Peng all came over and stood behind Nie Chen, looking at King Ping Xi with eager eyes.
Nie Chen's back was already wet with cold sweat.
If King Pingxi wants to kill him, he will definitely die in this city.
Once a war breaks out, not to mention the difference in military strength, King Ping Xi's force alone can cut him in two with one sword, and no one can stop him.
After a moment, Nie Chen smiled brightly and said,
"The prince is a hero, with the world in mind, and is fearless from any powerful threat. How can he kill innocent people indiscriminately just because of me who may pose a threat?
With your character, if it weren't for your father-in-law, you probably wouldn't take me seriously, right? "
King Pingxi looked at him for a moment, and then said,
"The fact that you didn't kneel down shows that you are not willing to follow me, and you are not a coward who is greedy for life and afraid of death.
The old man said that if you have the ability, then I will give you a chance.
He believed my words and was betrayed by Liu Hu and died.
Tomorrow, you go and bury the old man.
Counting from the day after tomorrow, I will give you five days and lend you 10,000 troops. You can capture the county and cut off Liu Hu's head.
If you succeed within five days, Weihu County will be yours from now on. I will go to the court and order you to be the governor of Weihu County.
You and I become allies, do business as usual, help each other, and work together for the world. If you are in trouble, I will help you. "
