"My eldest brother is in trouble. The north city gate is broken, and many thieves have entered the city."
Outside the yamen, a police officer wearing a green official uniform ran in, firing into the yamen and shouting loudly.
Most of the policemen in the yamen went to the streets, and there were not many people in the yamen at this time.
There are many civil servants working in the sixth room.
Hearing the shouting outside, a civil servant quickly walked out of the room, grabbed the Zao official who ran back to the Yamen to deliver the letter, and asked eagerly: "Have the thieves entered the city?"
"We've entered the city. I saw it with my own eyes. Those thieves killed everyone they saw and robbed things they saw. They are heading towards the Yamen right now." Zaoli nodded vigorously and said.
After saying that, he broke away from the other party's hand and ran quickly towards the back office.
"Why did the thieves enter the city? This is a bad thing." The clerk turned around and ran out of the Yamen without bothering to go back to the mission room where he worked.
There were many people in the Yamen who started to flee from the Yamen just like him.
At this time, everyone understood that after the traitors entered the city, Zhizhou Yamen would definitely be one of the first targets occupied by the traitors.
The chaos in the front office attracted the attention of Zhizhou who was in the back office.
In addition, the Zao officials who came in to deliver the message came all the way shouting that the traitors were entering the city. Even Zhizhou, who was in the back office, heard it clearly.
Zhizhou did not wait in the back office, but walked out of the back office on his own initiative.
"Sir, it's not good. The North City Gate has been lost. General Yuan and his people have already fled for their lives. Now all the traitors have entered the city through the North City Gate." Zaoli saw Zhizhou waiting outside Houya, panting. said.
The fall of the North City Gate was beyond Zhizhou's expectation.
However, he knew that this was not the time to sigh, so he said to the official who delivered the message: "Go immediately to gather the people in the yamen, close the door, bring weapons, and guard the yamen with me."
"Young man, let's go right away." Zaoli promised, turned around and ran away.
Not all the servants in the yamen fled, some chose to stay, and together with the servants, there were thirty or forty people in total.
The weapons are even more diverse.
The servants in the yamen were okay, most of them carried water and fire sticks, and a few of the policemen carried knives. The weapons in the hands of the servants were all kinds of.
Some were holding a wooden stick, others were holding kitchen knives, and there was even a driver holding a riding crop in his hand.
It seemed that there were more people around him, which gave Zhizhou some courage. He led the people directly to the back of the main entrance of the Yamen. He held the gavel taken from the court tightly in his hand and stared at the wood in front of him. Bolted gate.
On the side, the legs of several servants holding dicks in their hands were shaking. Even the policemen holding water and fire sticks looked nervous, and their fingers holding on to the water and fire sticks almost had white marks. .
Time passes slowly.
No one dared to relax, they all stared at the yamen door.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
There were chaotic footsteps outside the Yamen. Before the people inside could observe the situation outside, they saw the door in front of them being hit by a heavy object.
Among the servants, a timid one was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground.
However, no one paid attention to him at the moment, everyone was staring at the situation at the Yamen gate.
Zhizhou, who was standing in front of the people, swallowed.
He began to regret why he impulsively stayed here in the Yamen to wait for death. As soon as he learned that the thieves had entered the city, he should have let the people in the Yamen protect him and escape.
Losing the city was not his problem alone. Zhenwuwei failed to defend Daizhou City, and the commander Yuan Chaoju was the first general to abandon the city and flee. Even if he, the governor of the state, was punished by the court in the future, saving his life would not be a problem.
Wow!
The door of the Yamen was knocked open, and the wooden bolt inserted behind the wooden door was broken into two sections.
A group of tiger-character flag soldiers wearing large felt hats and cotton-padded armor rushed in like wolves and tigers, and immediately surrounded the people in the yamen.
Before Zhizhou could speak, the policemen and servants in the Yamen dropped their weapons and surrendered.
"Looking at your attire, you should be the magistrate of Daizhou, right?" Among the soldiers, the leader looked up and down at the magistrate of Daizhou in front of him.
The official uniform on the other party was unusually conspicuous compared to the others.
"Yes, I am Daizhou's parents. If you want to kill the traitors, come and chop them into pieces." Zhizhou knew that he would never have a chance to escape, so he became hardened.
"Aren't you afraid of death?" the soldier captain asked curiously.
Zhizhou's nostrils turned upward and he said proudly: "No one has ever died since ancient times. Now that I have fallen into your hands, I never thought I would survive."
"You are tougher, much stronger than the commander who escaped." The soldier captain gave a thumbs up and said immediately, "Two people come over and take custody of the Daizhou parents."
Two soldiers came up from behind, took out a piece of rope, tied up the hands of Daizhou Zhizhou, and took him to a nearby place to be imprisoned.
The policemen and servants who were with Zhizhou were locked directly in the lobby of the Yamen.
Some people were left to guard these people, and the captain of the soldiers continued to search the Zhizhou Yamen with his people.
This was not the first time that the Tiger Character Banner's Third Battle Division had captured a city. As soon as they entered Daizhou City, they cleared out the defenders in the city and began to suppress the unrest in the streets and stabilize the situation in the city.
As groups of soldiers entered Daizhou City, the leaderless city defenders fled and surrendered. The tiger-character flag soldiers immediately suppressed the ruffians who took the opportunity to smash and loot on the streets.
Tiger Character Banner has never been merciful to people who took advantage of the chaos to cause trouble. They killed and arrested them, and the troublemaking crowd on the street was quickly cleared away.
The tiger-shaped flag army controlled the situation in Daizhou City, and a large tiger-shaped flag was planted on the top of the city.
"Reporting to the commander, Daizhou City has been successfully captured by our side."
After Daizhou City was captured, Kuaiqi rode from the city to Wang Yuncheng outside the city to report the news.
"Enter the city."
Wang Yuncheng, who was riding on horseback, waved his right hand forward and led the army outside the city to enter the city.
In Daizhou City, where the battle had just ended, there were no other pedestrians on the streets except for the tiger-character flag soldiers who were searching for the defeated soldiers defending the city.
All the people in the city were hiding in their homes, and those who were more courageous only dared to observe the situation on the street through the cracks in the door.
Wang Yuncheng and Chief of Staff Lin Wenye entered Daizhou City from the North City Gate.
Soldiers from the Tiger Flag had already cleared the road along the road to ensure that no remnants of the Zhenwu Guards would hide in the houses on both sides.
Along the way, we came to Zhizhou Yamen in the city.
Soldiers with tiger-shaped flags were already guarding outside the yamen gate.
After dismounting, Wang Yuncheng handed the horse to the guard on the side, and he and Lin Wenye stepped into the Yamen.
"Reporting to the division chief, Daizhou Zhizhou has been captured, but it is a pity that the Zhenwu Guard commander ran away." Xiao Kui, Zheng of the Third Battle Barracks who occupied the Zhizhou Yamen, came to the Yamen gate to greet Wang Yuncheng and the others.
