It took Mo Zizai only one day to issue the imperial edict, but it took ten days to rest in the imperial edict. During these ten days, in addition to dealing with the aristocratic families of the imperial edict, he also expanded the number of imperial edicts to 30,000.

Although the new soldiers who were newly enlisted were incomparable to the original soldiers, as long as the number increased and the blessing of the accelerator, their strength would sooner or later catch up.

Moreover, the reason why he spent ten days resting was that in addition to training these newly enlisted soldiers, he also wanted to give Xu Boyuan more time to operate in Yining City. After all, Yining City was also ready to defend the dead. If he attacked for a strong attack, the Yuzhi Army would definitely suffer a lot, and even if he fought, it would be a little more costly.

Of course, Mo Zizai did not put all his hopes on Xu Boyuan. During these ten days, he asked the craftsmen in the city to build a lot of siege equipment, and he would not attack the city by relying solely on the siege ladder like last time.

In this way, even if Xu Boyuan makes any mistakes, it will be much easier to attack the city.

When ten days arrived, Mo Zizai's army set out directly, and the 30,000 troops transported enough food and siege equipment and headed straight for Yining City.

...

In the county magistrate's mansion in Yining City, Hu Ming sat upright in the upper position, and the original county magistrate sat at his lower head, but the officials of the county magistrate's mansion seemed to be accustomed to this scene, and everyone did not even have a trace of the same expression.

"Everyone, I believe you have also received the news. Mo Zizai's army has come to Yining City."

Hu Ming glanced at the dozen officials present and said lightly: "How to fight this battle? Do you have any good suggestions?"

"Sir, the court is powerful and cannot fight hard."

When the Yuan County Magistrate heard Hu Ming's question, he quickly stood up and replied: "I received the news that Xing Jun first said that he had sent five thousand people out of the city because he underestimated the enemy and was caught off guard. In the end, the five thousand people were wiped out. Bei Jun believed that Xing Jun's mistakes must not be repeated."

"What Li Junwei said."

After the county magistrate said this, someone immediately followed him and said: "Our city is strong and the pond is deep, with sufficient food and grass, and there are far more soldiers than the court. As long as we guard the city walls, Mo Zizai will definitely have no choice but to do anything to us."

"We just need to delay for a while and restrain the main force of the court, and the strength of the other counties will never be so watched. We just need to wait until those strengths come out again and the crisis in our Yining City will be solved."

"It's the extreme, it's the extreme. Lord Zhao is a serious and polite statement, and the officials agree with it."

The other officials also nodded repeatedly, obviously agreeing with the two people's opinions. One of the smart officials did not forget to flatter Hu Ming and said, "With Mr. Hu guarding the city, the city is in order. Not to mention a few months, even if Mo Zizai is given a few years, he will not even think about entering Yining City."

Seeing these people either fearing war or competing for power, Hu Ming couldn't help but feel a sense of boredom.

These days, under his iron fist management, although Yining City has temporarily become a stalwart, it does not mean that these aristocratic families and officials are in the same mind.

These families have their own plans. Although they did not oppose themselves on the surface due to their own forces and the reason why Mo Zizai's army was about to attack the city, they kept making themselves very upset.

Sometimes he wanted to learn from Mo Zizai, and just cut off all these troubled families.

But I can only think about this kind of thing. After all, Mo Zizai can do such things because he is orthodox in the court and has a powerful army in his hand, so he dares to turn against the aristocratic family and will not hesitate to fight against the world.

But I can't do it myself. I rely on aristocratic families. If I cut down these aristocratic families, what can he use to resist Mo Zizai?

Therefore, although he was disgusted with the people in front of him who were just thinking about intrigue, he had to pinch his nose and endure it.

"What you said is reasonable."

Hu Ming took a deep breath, threw the mixed thoughts in his heart aside, and then said, "But the news from Zhaoyuan City said that Mo Zizai was most likely to have many Golden Body Warriors under his command, so I want you to add more people to help defend the city, preferably a master. I wonder what you think?"

"Mr. Hu, this is definitely a fake news that Mo Zizai deliberately spreads."

When they heard that Hu Ming wanted to ask them for someone, some officials present immediately objected, "You must know that even if a warrior in the Golden Body Realm is qualified to be the commander of the three armies, just with his 20,000 imperial army, how could he have the Golden Body Realm realm, and there are many Golden Body Realm realm? This is simply nonsense."

"See the following officials, this must be the false information that Mo Zizai wants to disrupt our military morale and convey. Mr. Hu doesn't have to pay attention to."

"It's extreme, it's extreme."

The official who just spoke up and said again: "Mr. Wang is a very honest and polite statement, and the lower officials agree."

Hu Ming looked at the attitude of these people and couldn't help but clench his hands behind him tightly. However, thinking of relying on the power of these people to defend the city, he slowly let go of his hand that he had clenched up little by little, then looked at the official who agreed and said coldly: "Mr. County Master, can you just say it's extreme?"

When he heard Hu Ming suddenly causing trouble for himself, the slightly fat county magistrate blinked his little eyes innocently. He didn't say anything, but just expressed his words. Why do you want to trouble yourself? If you have the ability to find someone who speaks against you?

However, he could only think about these words in his heart. After all, the weakest of the people here are, so even though he knew that Hu Ming was venting his anger on him, he could only endure it silently.

When he first became the county magistrate, he was quite happy. He felt that he had no background and no particularly outstanding political achievements. He could become the county magistrate. He was really lucky. Therefore, he was not as honest as water in his office for the past few years, but he was barely considered a good official, and at least he could still think about making decisions for the people.

As a result, when Hu Ming arrived, his county magistrate was immediately undermined. The subordinates and even servants who were respectful to him on weekdays turned against each other.

Seeing this situation, how could he not know that he was a county magistrate, who was just a puppet who was specifically blocking guns for others. He was just stupid and had never seen it. No wonder no matter how he managed Yuanling County over the years, there has been no change at all. He was all under his command, so it would be strange if Yuanling County could change.

Thinking of this, the county magistrate Liu Ruqian couldn't help but smiled with a self-deprecating smile. Over the years, people have been played with applause but don't know it. I guess these people will regard themselves as clowns.

However, he was stronger than others, and he had no choice but to do anything. When he heard Hu Ming scolding him, he didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Mr. Hu, don't blame me. I also think that the news is too exaggerated. After all, the Golden Body Realm is not a big radish, it's everywhere."

"The golden body realm on the entire Great Zhou Ming side is no more than ten fingers. Even if the King of Zizai has a veteran left by the First Emperor, it would be good to have a golden body realm. It is absolutely impossible for a few. With the means of the First Emperor, if there are really a few golden body realms, he would not have taken down all the eastern realm."

"What do you mean is that the news I passed from the spy in Zhaoyuan City was wrong?"

Hu Ming stared at Liu Rugan with his eyes. In fact, in his own heart, he didn't believe that Mo Zizi could have several Golden Body Realm under his command, but it was one thing whether he believed it or not, and whether he should take this news as true is another thing.

These aristocratic families in Yining City secretly raise many private soldiers, and some of them are still very strong. If these private soldiers can be gathered together, then this time, the city will be safe.

"Forget it, forget it, Mr. Hu didn't say anything as my official."

Seeing Hu Ming's anxious and white face, Liu Ru spread the fat hands and said, "I don't know much about military affairs, so I won't express my opinions on these matters."

"You talk first, let me see the recruited civilians to avoid any accidents when defending the city."

After saying that, Liu Rugan walked out of the county magistrate's office without waiting for Hu Ming's agreement. However, as soon as he reached the door, two guards blocked his way. Liu Rugan was not surprised and turned his head to look at Hu Ming.

Although Hu Ming was a little dissatisfied with Liu Rugan's behavior of leaving the table directly, he thought about it and was really useless to keep him here, so he nodded gently and signaled the soldiers to let Liu Rugan go out.

After receiving Hu Ming's hint, the two guards immediately took back the weapons that blocked Liu Rugan, but after Liu Rugan went out, several soldiers immediately followed him. If the uninformed person looked over, they might think that these soldiers were protecting Liu Rugan.

But if you observe carefully, you will find that these soldiers are almost following Liu Rugan. This attitude is about protection, but rather about surveillance.

After Liu Rugan left, Hu Ming continued the topic just now and asked: "No matter whether Mo Zizai has many Golden Body Warriors in his hands, it is a fact that Zhao Yuancheng was destroyed in one day, which shows that Mo Zizai has absolutely the strength we don't know."

"So in order to be foolproof, I still hope that you can send some people to help defend the city."

"Mr. Hu is too worried. The following officials see that the reason why Zhao Yuancheng was lost is entirely because the guards and generals are arrogant and arrogant."

An official from the county magistrate's office said, "The previous information said that Xing Jun sent 5,000 soldiers to raid Mo Zizai's camp. In my opinion, this problem is 80% caused by this group of troops attacking the city."

"Mo Zizai's Red Flame Dragon Cavalry is unparalleled in the world. If they follow these defeated soldiers and start killing in the city, they will break the city in one day, which is not an accident."

"So as long as we are not as stupid as Xing Jun, we will not have any problems when we go out of the city and fight Mo Ziyao."

There are many different opinions on the information coming from Zhaoyuan City. They cannot be sure which one is true, but no matter how the city is broken, it is impossible to let them break out.

The private soldiers they trained with a lot of money were all their capital for their survival. If they were sent to the city wall to defend the city, not to mention whether they could survive, even if they could survive, would they still expect Hu Ming to return these private soldiers to them? If someone really thinks this way, it would be too stupid.

So they would never be able to beat dogs like this kind of meat bun. In their opinion, the general soldiers and the civilians in the city have already had nearly 100,000 defenders. With so many troops, it is definitely no problem to defend Yining City.

In this case, why do they still have to hand over the forces they have worked hard to cultivate?

Seeing that these people's eyes were so short-sighted, Hu Ming couldn't help but feel a little angry, so he said in a bad tone: "Everyone, you know the new policy of the court. If the city is broken, Hu will probably leave at all, but your family business and power are all in Yining City. Can Hu leave, can you leave too?"

"Mr. Hu, what do you mean?"

Hearing Hu Ming said this, the faces of the county magistrate's mansion changed a little, "Can you not be ready to defend this city?"

In addition to these officials who questioned Hu Ming, some people from the aristocratic families who originally supported Hu Ming also had a slight dissatisfaction when they heard this.

Situ Yao has been in Yuanling County for many years. Many of these aristocratic families are powered by Situ Yao. These aristocratic families control the vast majority of the power of Yuanling County. It is precisely because of these people that Hu Ming would exterminate the county magistrate as soon as he arrived in Yuanling County.

But they were the power supported by Situ Yao, but their family business in Yuanling County was also solid. At this moment, how could they be satisfied with Hu Ming's intention to leave the city?

"You guys misunderstood."

As soon as Hu Ming said this, he felt a little regretful. Seeing everyone attacking him, he took a deep breath and then slowly explained: "I mean, Hu can afford the price of the city destruction, but you can't afford it."

"So Hu wants you to send out some private soldiers, which is completely public. I hope you can understand clearly."

Seeing that Hu Ming was talking about this, the county magistrate's mansion couldn't help but feel silent. Although Hu Ming's words were right, they were a little unwilling to give the power he had cultivated to others no matter how they thought.

After a while, a family member who supported Hu Ming stood up and looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, I think what Mr. Hu said makes sense. If the private soldiers are gone, you can recruit them again, but if the city is broken, no one of us here can survive."

"So I suggest that each of our families will send out two hundred people to gather a guard team of 3,000 people and hand it over to the county magistrate to ensure that there is no accident in Yining City."

Although this man suggested that these aristocratic families would be sent, he was worried about handing over these soldiers to Hu Ming, so he directly asked the county magistrate to command these people. However, the county magistrate was the same clan of this man. So as soon as he spoke, someone immediately stood up to object.

"I don't think it's right. The county magistrate commanded the soldiers in the county town. He was too busy to do it. Let him command this guard. Isn't this causing trouble for him? Therefore, I suggest that this guard should be handed over to the county magistrate."

"How can this work? The county magistrate is also busy with affairs. I think it should be handed over to..."

"No, it should be handed over to..."

For a moment, the entire county magistrate's mansion seemed to have become a vegetable market. In order to win the command of this team, the people in these aristocratic families fought red in their faces, and they all quarreled and clamored, and none of them were willing to give in. Hu Ming's head was a little big.
