Chapter 1187 Channel

"Kill--"

The audience was filled with shocking shouts and killing. As they saw black armor and red tassels everywhere, each holding up his swords and rushing into the city gate.

The spiritual army in the chaos was instantly submerged by the sea of ​​people. If they were a little farther away, they screamed out loud and turned around and ran away.

"The Qin army is here! The Qin army is here-"

The terrified screams caused chaos near the city gate.

"General." A thousand-strong commander of the Qin army arrived in front of Peng Shuang.

The situation in Wuxiang was settled, so the latter turned his sword back to the sheath and asked directly: "Where is Su Yi?"

"Su Shuai is still in Lianyang, so let the general tell the general not to stop in Wuxiang and rush to Lichuan immediately." The Qianfu returned.

"This coward!" Peng Shuang whispered in his heart and said to himself: "Transfer our military order! All soldiers will head towards Lichuan! Be sure to arrive before dark!"

"No!" The commander of thousands of men held his fists and took the order.

After taking over Wuxiang, these ten thousand Qin troops had no intention of occupying them, and there was no stop. They ignored the chaotic people and started on the main street, running forward in neat formations, and directly passed through the city.

At this moment, the Wuxiang County Magistrate naturally knew about the news that the Qin army entered the city. In his opinion, he thought that these Qin soldiers were going to chase him. His mentality was conceivable. He did not care about family and property, and only brought two or three personal guards, and fled in a hurry.

After running out of the north gate, the county magistrate of Wuxiang took a breath, a county guard behind him was already panicked and shouted anxiously: "No, sir! After the Qin army entered the city, they were coming north!"

Oh! Hearing this, the magistrate of Wuxiang County was both heartbroken and urged repeatedly: "Hurry! Go to Jingyang!"

In fact, Peng Shuang had no time to chase him. For the Qin army, Wuxiang was just a necessary way to Lichuan.

It was late at night, under Jingyang City.

This is the county city, and there is no need to say more about the guards on the city defense, which is three steps and one post and five steps.

Moreover, the garrison here is much stricter than Wuxiang, and the time for entering and leaving the city is strictly controlled. Now the city gate is closed and a curfew is about to come.

After arriving at the city, the county magistrate of Wuxiang shouted: "Keep the city! Open the city quickly!"

"Who! Jingyang City Gate is closed at night, no one is allowed to enter and exit!" A soldier shouted in the city.

"You are bold! I am the magistrate of Wuxiang County! I have urgent military information! Why don't you open the city quickly! Go and inform General Fang!"

The county magistrate was furious. He was wearing Lingguo official uniform and the official hat on his head had long fallen. He looked embarrassed and was still in a state of terror.

The General Fang he mentioned was the long-standing guard of Jingyang, named Fang Zan.

The soldier listened to what he said, and then stood on tiptoe and looked at it. It was really the county magistrate's uniform, so he did not dare to neglect it. He hurriedly returned: "Sir, the villain will report to the general now..."

Half an hour later, in Jingyang City, the Military Conference Hall.

The magistrate of Wuxiang County was waiting anxiously, so he was in the mood to drink tea.

Soon, footsteps came, and Fang Zan walked into the inner circle in a general's armor.

Seeing him, the county magistrate quickly got up to meet him, bowed and said, "General Fang is here."

Although the two were not familiar with each other, they both served as officials in Jingyang and had met some of them.

"Mr. Gong?" Fang Zan glanced at him, walked to the main seat directly above and sat down, and said tepidly: "You are not in Wuxiang to manage government affairs and deal with people's livelihood. What are you doing when you run to Jingyang at night?"

"Oh, General." The magistrate of Wuxiang County came to the front of several cases and said anxiously: "Then the Qin army has already attacked Wuxiang!"

"What did you say!" Fang Zan, who was still stable just now, was shocked and stood up suddenly, asking with uncertainty: "You mean, Wuxiang was attacked by the Qin army!?"

"Yes." The county magistrate said in a trembling voice: "The Qin army suddenly launched a large attack, with a large number of troops, and only a few hundred officers and soldiers in Wu Township could not defend it at all. If my guards had not fought to the death, they would have already been in the city..."

Listening to what he said, Fang Zan sat back slowly, as if muttering to himself: "This is impossible. Qin State has no troops stationed on the border at all, where did the Qin army come from?"

"Oh, General." The county magistrate said anxiously: "How dare you talk nonsense like this big thing!"

"Wait, let me think about it." Fang Zan raised his hand. Of course he believed it. A county magistrate who dared to joke about war is not asking for death!

After thinking about it, he looked at the county magistrate again and asked in a deep voice: "How many people are there in this group of Qin soldiers?"

"This...is at least 10,000 or 20,000." The county magistrate swallowed and made a guess based on the situation in Wuxiang. In fact, he did not meet the Qin army at all.

"So many people, why do you want to attack Wuxiang? Even if you occupy it, you will not be able to attack Jingyang." Fang Zan frowned and pondered slightly, "Mr. Gong said before, after they broke the city, they have been chasing you north?"

"Yes." Wuxiang County Magistrate said with lingering fear: "If I hadn't been in great danger, how could I see the general at this moment?"

"Since I was chasing Jingyang, why haven't I received military information yet?" Fang Zan said again.

"This..." Wuxiang County Magistrate couldn't answer. Yes, if the enemy came in large numbers, how could the spies in Jingyang not give warnings?

Fang Zan frowned again, and after walking in front of the desk, he said, "No, this only means that they are not coming to Jingyang, nor are they chasing you, but have other purposes!"

As he spoke, he hurried to the picture and took a closer look.

This is a military land, and there are naturally military maps hanging on the walls.

After watching for a while, he immediately said in surprise: "No! The Qin army is going to use Wuxiang to sneak attack Lichuan!"

"Ah!?" The county magistrate was stunned.

And Fang Zan already felt something was wrong.

As a garrison of a county town, no matter how capable he is, there are still basic combat considerations.

To put it bluntly, the reason why Wuxiang was easily taken by the Qin army was that it was not in wartime and was beaten unexpectedly.

When Fang Zan learned that the Qin army had secretly dispatched troops to attack, he did not dare to delay, and he had no time to pay attention to the county magistrate. Instead, he took a few steps to the outside world and shouted: "Hurry up! Pass our military order! All generals will discuss the troops!"

The guards outside the hall held their fists and left.

Soon, under his order, a group of young generals rushed to the conference hall.

Fang Zan did not avoid the magistrate of Wuxiang County, but waited for the people to arrive and said straight to the point: "Now, the Qin army has avoided our military intelligence investigation, secretly mobilized a small group of troops, and sneaked into Wuxiang, and is heading north."

The young generals looked at each other, and some people couldn't help but say, "General, this is impossible..."

Someone else said: "Yes, our country and Qin have a peace agreement? Even if the two countries are fighting, the court should have had a garrison order long ago..."

This is a time difference, because yesterday, the Spirit King just became emperor.
