fake prince

Chapter 265
"My lord, give your order! This kind of disaster must be eradicated as soon as possible!" Handing back the paperwork, Sun Baihu immediately called for a fight.

Su Ziji nodded: "Sun Baihu, don't hesitate, you immediately order troops, and now follow me to surround and kill these six cavalry!"

"Yes!" Sun Baihu responded, and went out to order soldiers.

When Su Ziji also changed his uniform and came out, he saw fifty cavalry and five cavalrymen in fine and thin armor waiting under the torches.

The fire shone on their faces, all of them were very serious, but there was a little curiosity in the eyes looking at Su Ziji, probably because they didn't know who this young man was, and he could make Baihu obey his orders.

Sun Baihu has ordered someone to bring three good horses, one for himself, one for Su Ziji and one for Ye Taoist.

The three of them immediately got on their horses.

"My lord, for the remaining people, I will let them stay here and follow us. There will be a total of fifty cavalry. Together with five guards, it is enough to deal with the folk cavalry."

"It is indeed enough, let's go!" Su Ziji nodded, without saying a word, he took the lead and urged the horse to run towards the dark place outside.

People who were still wondering whether this young man had fighting power, saw Su Ziji's appearance of urging his horse to gallop, and nodded slightly. From this look, he knew that although he was not proficient in riding skills, at least he would not be slowed down. Wild Taoists are similar, although their equestrian skills are average, but they are not good at it, and they are not stage-frightened when they urge their horses to follow.

For the conductor, this is enough. There are nearly 60 people at the moment, and they quickly rode away.

It is a small town more than 1000 miles away from the port. Because the southwest is not considered a prosperous area, a small town has only more than [-] people, and the population is not very dense. Some big families are surrounded by other big families. There are sharp lines between the wealthy.

It was cheaper for Su Ziji to act, at least at night, surrounding the target house would cause less disturbance, even if the neighbors heard the sound, they would not dare to make a sound.

Their goal is Dong's house located in the east of the town.

Although he is a merchant, there are some restrictions on the size of the house, but the area it occupies is not small.After thinking about it, I can figure out that it must be a pavilion garden, with a lot of things.

"Is this the house? The area is not small!" Su Ziji and Sun Baihu reined in their horses almost at the same time, and the horses behind them also stopped. Su Ziji looked up at the sky, it was night again, and it was very cloudy Heavy, it seems that it is very suitable for fighting at night without disturbing the townspeople too much.

But Sun Baihu only glanced at the sky, looking at the house with a gloomy expression.

Su Ziji is a little strange, but he is also a person who has lived in the capital, so he understands it after thinking about it.

When he entered Taixue, he met Chen Sheng, a Jinshi of the previous class, and a second-class Jinshi. After entering Beijing, Chen Sheng was so-called proud of his official career, but he was very poor.

Housing prices in the capital are expensive. Except for a few who enjoy the emperor’s bestowal, Beijing officials mainly rely on buying or renting housing. Chen Sheng’s rent accounts for half of his salary, with a monthly rent of [-] Wen. The jade inlaid on it was fake jade, and he had been an official for three years without sending a penny to his family. Not long ago, he cried a lot when he heard the news that his second uncle died of poverty and illness.

This was witnessed by Su Ziji.

Dazheng's salary is not low, and has been in the middle line in the past dynasties. The reason for this is that it is not easy to live in the capital.

Even the area of ​​the king's mansion, from Wei's point of view, was generally only 15 mu, but now Dazheng was founded, and the mansions of the two kings of Shu and Qi had 30 mu.

How can officials be detached from hundreds of households in the imperial city?

Now this Dong's house seems to be larger than the prince's mansion. Although it is a rural area, it still makes hundreds of households feel dissatisfied.

You guessed it right, Sun Baihu would never be soft on such a businessman who spends ill-gotten gains, so he glanced at a guard.

The guard immediately urged the horse to take a step forward, and shouted towards the closed door: "People of the Dong family, listen up, we are members of the official family, and we want to find Dong Maolin, the head of your family, open the door immediately!"

As a result, there was obviously a commotion in the house, some lights went out, and some got up, but then it quieted down again.

The gate was closed and no one opened it.

If the people inside didn't believe their identities, they could have further confirmed it by calling out, but when they heard the officials coming, there was no movement, and the situation was obviously wrong.

Su Ziji rode on the horse and said, "Sure enough, there is something hidden."

Turning around, he cupped his hands at Sun Baihu: "Master Sun, I will leave the war to you."

"Don't worry, my lord, I've already surrounded the house, even a bird can't fly out!"

"If they don't come out, we can attack in!"

"Since you are fighting against the government, you will be punished with death." Sun Baihu grinned grimly, and while speaking, a cavalryman around the corner made a gesture to the people here.

Sun Baihu responded, and immediately stepped on the horse's back, jumped lightly, and grabbed the wall.

"Good skill." Su Ziji thought to himself.

But as soon as the few people climbed up, they heard the sound of piercing through the sky. A guard was vigilant and flashed quickly. An arrow flew past his ear, but a county soldier beside him was shot in the left shoulder and fell down.

There was also a county soldier who was shot by an arrow and fell from the wall screaming loudly. It seemed that his injuries were more serious, and his life might be in danger.

"How dare you kill an official?" Sun Baihu's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he waved his hand calmly.

Everyone immediately raised their vigilance and regarded it as a regular battle. At this moment, the closed door suddenly opened from the inside, and someone galloped out on horseback, bowing their bows and firing arrows together.

"puff puff"

The people outside had been prepared for a long time. They raised their shields, covering the vital points of both the man and the horse. When the arrow hit it, it made a few noises and bounced off. Almost at the same time, the guards had already thrown several javelins in the army. .

"puff puff"

The cavalry that had just rushed out were still wearing leather armor, but when five javelins fell, three people screamed and were nailed to the ground immediately.

Throwing a javelin, the guards in thin armor drew their swords and rushed forward, while the county soldiers also shouted and charged forward.

The two sides collided together, and both fought desperately.

"Thirty years since the founding of the country, the martial arts still exists." Su Ziji waited and watched, seeing the brave guards and the county soldiers not being stage-frightened, he couldn't help but secretly nodded.

As soon as they fought, the screams kept ringing out. Perhaps the cavalry knew that they would not be spared, and they all had the idea of ​​fighting to the death. It's just that although these people were considered to be skilled among the box soldiers, they had never trained in battle formations, and they all relied on a single Bravery and blood are fighting.

But the guards and the county soldiers formed a battle formation against each other, and three or four cavalry members were killed just by comparing each other. Sun Baihu even drew a bow and set an arrow himself, and shot the leader with one arrow.

"Master Dong has been hit by an arrow."

Maybe this Young Master Dong is the core of the cavalry, seeing him being shot down, the cavalry immediately wanted to retreat like a tide.

At this time, Sun Baihu's people had already taken advantage of the chaos to climb over the wall, and if there was a breakthrough in the defense, it would be easy for the people behind to go over.

"Kill, kill all the resistance, leave no one behind!"

Su Ziji was waiting outside on horseback, when he heard the fierce battle inside, screams followed by screams.
