Upon learning about the arrival of the county magistrate Wang Qianjun, Qi Feng, who was guarding Wanglingcheng, immediately brought people to greet him.

"Qi Feng has met the adults."

"Do you know what happened to Dingfeng City? How did you become a county lieutenant?"

Qi Feng just gave Wang Qianjun a bow, but before he could speak, he was scolded by Wang Qianjun, who was leading the way, "If Jiang Yi had not sent someone to send me news to me, I'm afraid you wouldn't even know that the entire Yanyang County was beaten down, right?"

"Stop the anger of your wrath, sir."

Qi Feng has a relatively straightforward personality, so after hearing Wang Qianjun's scolding, he did not care, but said calmly: "Dingfeng City is not within the jurisdiction of my official, so I don't know what happened there."

In fact, logic is that the entire Yanyang County army should be managed by Qi Feng, but Jiang Yi is a member of Wang Qianjun's faction and kept ordering. After several conflicts arose, Qi Feng directly made it clear to Wang Qianjun and asked Wang Qianjun to take charge of Dingfeng City by himself.

So at this moment, Qi Feng said this, undoubtedly making Wang Qianjun ugly.

"you……"

Sure enough, Wang Qianjun was furious when he heard this. He pointed to Qi Feng's nose and said angrily: "Are you going to shirk responsibility to me? Don't forget that you are the county magistrate. The military of Yanyang County is under your control, not me!"

Hearing Wang Qianjun's words, Qi Feng couldn't help but frown. He just refuted Wang Qianjun's accusations. As a result, Wang Qianjun actually directly thought of shirking responsibility. It was really a standard bureaucratic style.

The deputy general beside Qi Feng saw Qi Feng frowning and could probably guess what Qi Feng was saying, so he quickly stopped Qi Feng's words and said to Wang Qianjun in front of him: "Sir, don't be angry, General Qi doesn't mean that."

"Now that something happened in Dingfeng City. If something really happens, neither of the adults can escape responsibility, so now I'll think about how to deal with this."

"This is still like a human word."

Wang Qianjun glared at Qi Feng, then said, "Jiang Yi sent someone to send me news that an army had crossed the Wanling Mountains and was very strong. Now 80% of Dingfeng City has fallen under their control."

"Are there any troops coming over from the Wanling Mountains?"

After hearing what Wang Qianjun said, Qi Feng's heart suddenly stumbled. After receiving the news that Dingfeng City was blocked these days, he had a bad premonition in his heart. So in the past few days, he sent people to Dingfeng City to investigate the news, while also preparing for war in order to deal with emergencies.

But I didn't expect that things really went in the worst direction. The old emperor's prediction was now in town.

Qi Feng didn't care about his displeasure with Wang Qianjun at this time, and asked directly: "Which army belongs to that country? How many people are there? Who is the commander?"

Seeing Qi Feng asking several questions in succession, Wang Qianjun rolled his eyes directly and said angrily: "How could this official know?"

"The people sent by Jiang Yi are very strong, and 80% of them were crossed from the Wanling Mountains, and he didn't know anything else."

“…”

Qi Feng was speechless when he heard this, he didn't know anything. That was a big deal. If there were spies in his army who dared to report the news like this, they would have been dealt with by military law long ago.

However, Qi Feng felt relieved when he thought about it. After all, in the case of Dingfeng City, if someone really attacked, Jiang Yi would probably be taken down if he couldn't even organize the people.

Therefore, it is already difficult for him to send someone to send back the news. If he really sends back more detailed information, he must really consider whether Jiang Yi has treasoned the country and surrendered to the enemy, and the false news he sent back.

"Hu Yong, send more scouts to Dingfeng City quickly. You don't have to investigate the situation in Dingfeng City. Just guard outside Dingfeng City. As long as the army in Dingfeng City shows signs of sending troops, come and report immediately."

Qi Feng first gave an order to the deputy general, then looked at Wang Qianjun and said, "Mr. County Magistrate, my Yanyang County is not strong enough troops. You must ask the court for help in this matter."

Yanyang County said it had 70,000 troops, but in fact they both knew very well that apart from the 20,000 soldiers under Qi Feng, most of the other troops were only available on the list to get empty salary, and the remaining part was just a substitute and had no combat power at all.

Therefore, Qi Feng felt that after he said this, Wang Qianjun would immediately agree to the matter. Unexpectedly, after hesitating for a while, Wang Qianjun shook his head and said, "The situation is unclear at this time, don't rush to report to the court for the time being."

"After all, if Jiang Yi makes a mistake or doesn't have many troops, it would be bad if he makes a mistake."

"Um?"

Qi Feng was stunned when he heard Wang Qianjun's words, and then quickly reacted. Wang Qianjun was considering his future. After all, if this matter was reported, not to mention whether his subordinates would be found out if they were paid for their empty salary, he would not be able to escape the charge of being ineffective in doing things.

"Mr. County Magistrate, when is it now? Are you still thinking about your black hat?"

Qi Feng glared at Wang Qianjun and spoke mercilessly, "Now the entire Yanyang County only has the 20,000 troops in my hands, which is not enough to do anything. If there is any accident at that time, you will not lose only a black hat. I am afraid that you will not even be able to protect your head on your neck!"

"What are you talking about? I just said that the situation is not clear and the report is suspended, but I didn't say that I would not report."

Wang Qianjun was scolded and seemed to be a little worried. He raised his face and said, "Otherwise, when my official report comes, the court sends someone to ask. I don't know how to explain to the court after asking questions?"

"What's more, the imperial court is now fighting against the aristocratic families in the south, and its own troops are not enough. Where can I draw troops to support our Yanyang County? Even if I report it, what's the use?"

Hearing Wang Qianjun's last words, Qi Feng, who was originally angry, suddenly seemed like a deflated balloon. Wang Qianjun was not wrong. Now the imperial court itself is in constant civil strife, so how can there be no force to take care of their border counties?

Qi Feng was silent for a moment, then asked weakly: "Then... what are the plans of the county magistrate?"

"Call the generals in the city first."

Wang Qianjun shook his head and said, "This battle may have to be fought by my Yanyang County, so it is necessary for them to know about this."

"Call them together and discuss any issues that need to be faced. Although I don't know how to fight, I will hand over the logistics aspect to me. As long as everyone gives me opinions, I will try my best to satisfy them."

Hearing Wang Qianjun's words, Qi Feng's heart moved slightly. Because he had been banning his generals from corruption, his army was still relatively poor. Although it was not a bad news, it was only like this. There were basically no other benefits, and Wang Qianjun even secretly deducted a lot.

So taking advantage of this opportunity, it would be a good choice if you can seek some benefits for your soldiers.

In this way, after the morale of the soldiers is mobilized, they can also exert stronger combat power in the face of the enemy in Dingfeng City.

Thinking of this, Qi Feng nodded slightly, and then said, "Since the county magistrate is willing, then the official will hurry the generals."

After saying that, Qi Feng asked Wang Qianjun to take his followers to settle in the yard first, and then he sent someone to summon generals in the army. However, when he saw that Wang Qianjun had brought so many followers, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

However, he didn't think much about it. After all, Wang Qianjun had already received news of an accident in Dingfeng City, so it was normal to be careful. After all, Wang Qianjun is the leader of a county, so it was normal to be afraid of death. These entourages looked good and felt stronger than his personal soldiers.

This made Qi Feng feel a little moved. These people from aristocratic families have a strong family background. When they encounter problems, they can immediately show such a strong follower. No wonder His Majesty wants to deal with these aristocratic families now. It seems that it should be a blow.

I just don’t know if the court can win against the southern family this time.

Qi Feng, who was thinking about these things in his mind, did not stop any longer and went out to summon his generals in person.

After he left, Xiao Yanbing, who pretended to be Wang Qianjun's personal guard, said with some admiration: "Mr. Wang is indeed in charge of doing things. No wonder he can be the county magistrate."

Because Wang Qianjun knew Qi Feng very well, Wang Qianjun decided everything after entering the city. From actively telling Qi Feng about Dingfeng City to winning the news, to acting with Qi Feng later, hinting that Qi Feng only wanted to keep his official position. Wang Qianjun did all this without any leakage.

If Xiao Yanbing hadn't been an insider, even Wang Qianjun's acting skills would have been unlikely to notice anything unusual.

"General Xiao praised it."

Wang Qianjun was in a complicated mood. Although he was ready to treason and surrender to the enemy, after all, he had been an official in the Great Zhou Dynasty for so many years, and now he personally sent all the elves of Qi Feng and Wangling City to a dead end. He felt a little guilty in the south.

"Don't worry, as long as General Qi Feng is willing to surrender, we will not do anything to him."

Xiao Yanbing is good at understanding people's hearts. After seeing Wang Qianjun's hesitation, he spoke and comforted him: "Maybe, after I take over the Great Zhou Dynasty, you two will have the opportunity to be ministers in the same dynasty."

"Qi Feng..."

After hearing what Xiao Yanbing said, Wang Qianjun subconsciously shook his head. With his understanding of Qi Feng, this man would definitely not surrender. However, he still had a trace of luck in his heart, so he didn't say much. After all, if even Qi Feng, who he thought he would never surrender, then his guilt would be much relieved.

...

There were only about a dozen of main generals under Qi Feng, and including the personal guards they led, there were only forty or fifty people in total.

Because they are all colleagues and there is no need to introduce each other, Qi Feng directly took them to sit down one by one in front of the seats that Wang Qianjun had already prepared.

But after they were all done, Qi Feng suddenly discovered something wrong, because Wang Qianjun, who should be sitting on the main seat, was standing aside, and the person in the seat was the close follower who had been following Wang Qianjun before.

"Mr. County Magistrate, what's going on?"

Qi Feng had a bad premonition in his heart. He subconsciously pressed his hand on his sword, and then asked, "Who is this?"

"Mr. Qi must have heard of my husband's name."

Xiao Yanbing, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at Qi Feng and said in a calm tone: "I Xiao Yanbing."

"Xiao Yanbing?"

Qi Feng was stunned for a moment, and then soon remembered who Xiao Yan was. The famous Zheng State double walls, Xiao Yan's army who had blocked Mo Congyi in the eastern territory for more than ten years.

Thinking of this, Qi Feng's expression changed drastically. Now he had guessed that he must be the one who led the army to cross the Wanling Mountains. As for why he appeared here, Qi Feng turned his attention to Wang Qianjun. It seemed that this county magistrate had now treasoned the country and surrendered to the enemy.

Qi Feng gritted his teeth and did not talk much with Wang Qianjun. He pulled out the sword from his waist and shouted: "Follow me to fight out!!!"

As one of David's double walls, Xiao Yanbing was famous, so even though he had only a few guards around him, Qi Feng did not choose to attack him. Instead, he grabbed his chair and smashed it at Xiao Yanbing, and then led people to kill him directly at the door.

Although he knew that the ambush must have been repaired in the yard, this is Wangling City and his territory. As long as they can fight one person out, they will soon bring countless reinforcements. It will be easy to surround these hundreds of them here.

"Bang~"

Qi Feng had no time to open the door, so he kicked the wooden door and then ran out.

As expected, in the empty yard, there were already soldiers holding sharp blades standing in the empty yard. It was just because they entered the city as Wang Qianjun in person when they entered the city, and they were not easy to carry crossbows, so these people only had twenty crossbow arrows, otherwise Qi Feng and the others would face a greater threat.

"General Qi, you can't rush out."

Just as Qi Feng and others saw the soldiers, Xiao Yanbing's sincere voice came from behind him, "It's not your fault to defeat this battle. I hope the general can put down his weapons. How about you and I have a good talk?"

"You and I have nothing to talk about."

Qi Feng tore off a strip of cloth from his clothes, and then used it to wrap his hands and the hilt of the sword tightly together. In this way, even if his palms were removed, the sword would not come out. At the same time, he also used this action to directly show his determination to fight to the death.

"Ship Qi..."

Most of the generals behind Qi Feng followed Qi Feng's actions and tied their weapons to their hands. Only a few generals who usually walked closer to Wang Qianjun looked at the black soldiers in the yard and said hesitantly: "There are too many people and I can't kill them. Otherwise, I'll surrender?"

"We are tired of being favored by the emperor and being open and honest. How can we do such a thing that will bring shame to the Lord for thousands of years?"

Qi Feng angrily scolded the general who spoke, and then said in a deep voice to the other generals beside him: "How can you surrender if you only fight to the death at this moment?"

After saying that, Qi Feng didn't care what they thought and directly rushed towards the soldiers all over the yard.
