Seeing this, the cavalrymen were startled and instinctively swung their swords to chop.
"Don't do it! We are the Shadow Guards!"
Qiu Ying shouted, and then said to Lin Guang,
"General Lin, I am Qiuying."
"Hold your sword! One of our own!"
Qiu Ying and the Shadow Guard walked forward quickly and came to Liu Hu's body. After checking it, he said,
"General Lin, this is Liu Hu. He is dead. We killed him."
Seeing the serious look on the little girl's face, Lin Guang burst into laughter.
"I won't compete with you for the credit. What are you afraid of? The brothers of the Shadow Guard have worked hard. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to enter the city. I'm afraid Liu Hu would have run away. Your credit will be remembered by the Lord. living."
"Come on, drag Liu Hu's body aside and let the Lord come and take a look. Let's go in first and control the people inside."
Lin Guang led his troops into the governor's mansion, and soon, there was a lot of excitement inside.
All the servants and maids in the governor's mansion were pulled out.
Liu Hu had no concubines, and his wife and children were all in the capital, so there were not many female servants in the governor's mansion.
But he found mountains of silver.
These were all collected by Liu Hu over the years and paid tribute to other merchants. Most of them came from the Liu family. Unfortunately, he could not take them away or spend them, so Nie Chen got all of them at an advantage.
At this moment, a soldier hurried over and said,
"General, there are many heavily armed soldiers in the courtyard of Dongyuan. They all blocked the courtyard and refused to let us in. They even injured our people."
"What? Are there still soldiers and horses? Go over and have a look."
Lin Guangdang even ran over with his people.
When he arrived at the gate of Dongyuan, Lin Guang saw that it was surrounded inside. Soldiers were all wearing armor and holding weapons in their hands, staring eagerly.
Lin Guang saw this and shouted loudly,
"Put down your weapons and surrender immediately. Your governor is already dead. There is no point in resisting any longer. It will only increase casualties!"
Hearing this, the soldiers inside shouted,
"We are not county guards. We are the guards of the Sixth Prince. You only need to beat yourselves. It has nothing to do with us. We are not enemies. Our Highness wants to see you, Prince Pingxi!"
Hearing that the prince was inside, Lin Guang couldn't help but look at Qiu Ying.
Qiuying nodded and said,
"General Lin, the Sixth Prince does indeed live in the Sheriff's Mansion. He usually doesn't go out much. It's probably the ones inside. It's up to you to decide whether to kill them or not."
I can decide shit...
Lin Guang complained in his heart, and then said,
"You guys watch them here, I'll go ask the lord to come over."
"As you command!"
Lin Guang got on his horse and hurried towards the outside of the Sheriff's Mansion.
All the way to the main camp in the city, Nie Chen was currently recruiting the defenders and horses together with his own army.
Because they attacked and destroyed the city too suddenly, the troops inside were still confused when they entered the city. They had just finished eating, took off their armor and were getting ready to sleep, and then the city was broken.
When the army from outside the city arrived at the military camp, the people inside were in a chaotic mess, with no organization at all. Some of them had not even put on their armor, and the army like tigers and wolves came in.
Because there was no general or county guard to command, their commander could not make the decision. Seeing that they could not resist, they simply surrendered.
After confiscating the weapons, Nie Chen carefully recruited and surrendered these soldiers. After all, the captives had to be fed, so it was of no use. It was only useful to turn them into his own army.
After Lin Guang arrived, he said to Nie Chen,
"Lord, the governor Liu Hu is dead. Now we have found the sixth prince. The sixth prince said he wants to see you."
Hearing this, Nie Chen was startled for a moment, and then said to the surrendering soldiers,
"You have all heard it. Liu Hu is dead. Weihu County will be mine from now on. No one will care about you. I will give you one night to think about it. Those who are willing to join us will be treated favorably and will have food and clothing." , military pay will be paid on time, and those who are unwilling to join will be killed directly, I don’t care for idlers!”
Then, Nie Chen said to Liang Peng,
"Liang Peng, please work hard and arrange the city defense. Those who are willing to join will be disrupted and added to the army. Those who are unwilling to surrender will be buried."
"As commanded."
"Old Ma, stay and assist Liang Peng, and listen to him in everything."
"clear."
"Da Zhuang Lin Guang is following me. Where is Yue Dongwen? Where is Qi Huan?"
Nie Chen asked Weng Qiuchan as he walked.
"Li Mo opened the city gate and was seriously injured. Qi Huan took Li Yuanjun to see his injury. Yue Dongwen went to clear out the defenders of several other city gates."
"Okay, Li Mo has made great achievements this time, and he will be rewarded tomorrow."
Nie Chen and others got on their horses and walked towards the governor's mansion.
Lin Guang said as he walked,
"My lord, that prince has two hundred guards who are gathering in their courtyard. Do you think we should kill them all?"
Nie Chen was startled when he heard this and said,
"Why kill the prince? We are a vassal, a warlord, not a rebel. We are killing the prince of Dafeng under the banner of Dafeng? What is the purpose? Go and have a look first. If it doesn't work, send the prince away."
"good."
The group came to the gate of the county governor's house and dismounted. Lin Guang pointed at Liu Hu's corpse on the ground and said,
"My lord, Liu Hu was about to escape at that time. There were many of them and the situation was urgent. Qiu Ying had no choice but to kill Liu Hu first in order to prevent Liu Hu from escaping.
Please forgive me, Lord. "
"What's the point of pardon? What's the crime of having accomplished great feats? After defeating the Shadow Guards this time, they will all be heavily rewarded. Their mission is a hundred times more dangerous than ours outside the city."
"Yes, the Shadow Guard has indeed made a great contribution this time. My lord made the most correct decision to form the Shadow Guard."
"You know how to flatter me."
Nie Chen smiled and said,
"Hang Liu Hu's body and hang it on the city gate to dry for three days."
"As commanded."
A group of people entered the governor's house. Weng Qiuchan walked at the end. Before entering the door, he chopped Liu Hu's body with a knife, then took a sip and followed.
Nie Chen watched as he walked and saw that there were no signs of damage in the county governor's mansion. He praised Lin Guang a few words. After all, it would cost more to rebuild the damaged things in the future, and the county town would be destroyed for a long time in the future. , will all be their old base areas.
Arriving at the gate of Dongyuan, all the soldiers saluted after seeing Nie Chen.
Nie Chen looked at the densely packed soldiers inside, then adjusted his armor, clasped his hands and said,
"Nie Chen, the new governor of Weihu County, pays homage to His Highness the Sixth Prince."
At this time, the door inside opened, and a thin young man came out and smiled at Nie Chen,
"It turns out that Master Nie is here. Please come in quickly. Please come in quickly."
"Get out of the way, why are you so short-sighted? Master Nie is one of our own, not an enemy. Why are you drawing swords at each other?
Everyone, go out and guard outside the Sheriff's Mansion. "
