Chapter 144 Chapter 139 Attacking Linjiang County (Second update)

Around eleven o'clock noon.

Nie Zheng led five thousand elite dragons and tigers to appear outside Maqiao Town.

At this moment, more than a dozen minions who opened the way and chanted, riding fast horses, rushed into the town ahead of time,

After entering the streets of the small town, they all shouted loudly: "I am the righteous teacher of the dragon and tiger. This time I crossed the river only to expel the foreign invaders from Dayue and restore our Han county land. This time I am passing through Maqiao Town. Please fellow villagers, fathers and elders Haihan."

"I am the righteous teacher of dragon and tiger..."

Looking at the small town ahead, the streets are empty, all the houses and yards are closed, the doors and windows are closed, and the scene is desolate.

Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng frowned and said, "Why is the town so empty and deserted?"

Jia Xiufang, who was following behind, shook her head and smiled, "I'm afraid that the people in this town are afraid that we are the unrighteous teachers, so they hid themselves in advance."

Hearing this, Nie Zheng sighed softly, and said: "It seems that they were bullied and frightened by those Da Yue natives. Now, as long as it is a foreign team, they will be frightened and sensitive."

Jia Xiufang nodded and said: "Leader, let's pass by this place as soon as possible. If we stay here for too long, it will cause panic among the local people."

"It makes sense!"

Nie Zheng turned around slowly, and ordered to everyone with a stern expression: "Everyone, listen to me. From now on, whenever you pass through villages and towns, you must not make any loud noises, and you must not damage the grass and trees of the villagers. Anyone who breaks the law will be whipped and served!"

"Yes, Alliance Leader!"

Facing Nie Zheng's majestic gaze, everyone was in awe and nodded in response.

"Go, hurry across town!"

Nie Zheng waved his hand and gave an order.

In an instant, five thousand elite dragons and tigers, driving their horses and carts, passed through Maqiao Town extremely quickly, and disappeared into the distance in a mighty way.

It wasn't until an hour after Nie Zheng's team left Maqiao Town that the civilians who were hiding cautiously entered the town. Residents, slowly drilled out.

After a while, the people living around Maqiao Town came out one after another.

They stood on the road at the entrance of the town, looking at the direction of Nie Zheng's team going away, pointing and talking, and their expressions were full of confusion.

At first, when Nie Zheng's team first appeared in Maqiao Town, these local residents were a little terrified when they saw Nie Zheng's [-] strong-looking troops, and hid in the dark far away. Don't dare to stand up.

Although they heard that team kept shouting the slogans of dragon and tiger volunteers and expelling foreign invaders, they were still nervous and did not dare to show their faces easily.

But after Nie Zheng's team left, the common people in these small towns were surprised to find that this seemingly fierce team seemed to be extremely disciplined.

Where the team passed by, the surrounding crops were intact. What's more, they discovered that there were dozens of copper coins on their field. After a closer look, there was a letter on it, which read: Unintentionally trampled down fellow villagers I felt very guilty and apologized, so I left a few coppers for repairs..."

Seeing this scene, the local common people were stunned.

Especially Lu Lao, with the support of several young clansmen, he slowly came to the intersection, looking at the direction of Nie Zheng's team, the doubt in his eyes became deeper and deeper.

"Master Longhu, who are they? Why is this team so strange? Could it be that Annan is about to change?..."

…………

After leaving Maqiao Town, Nie Zheng led the team to move on.

Along the way, they passed several villages one after another, but without exception, everywhere they went, it was deserted and quiet, and there was no one there, except occasionally to see some vigilant domestic dogs looking at Nie Zheng. Apart from barking hostilely, there was no living creature in sight.

To be honest, such a situation made Nie Zheng very upset.

Originally, he traveled far to Annan to expel the Dai Viet aborigines who had invaded this piece of Han Chinese land, and then developed it into his own territory.

However, these Han people in Annan County seemed to be full of vigilance for their arrival, and they were not as harmonious as Nie Zheng imagined.

This is too depressing.

You know, when Nie Zheng was on earth in his previous life, he saw many anti-Japanese film and television dramas, such as those where the Eighth Route Army entered the city and town. Every time he went to a place, the local people beat gongs and drums and lined the road to welcome them, as if they were welcoming their relatives. .

The joyful and lively scene is simply beyond words.

Back then, the Eighth Route Army also fought against the foreign invaders and liberated the poor people oppressed by the Japanese devils. Now, he, Nie Zheng, brought five thousand passionate men to Annan to expel the foreign invaders from Dayue and save the local people from suffering.

It stands to reason that both of them do the same things, so why is the treatment between the two so different?
What a disappointment!

In Nie Zheng's beautiful imagination, when he led the Dragon and Tiger Volunteers into Annan, the local people should also beat gongs and drums and welcome them in the road. He came to Nie Zheng with a full face, and shouted at the chief, please accept our wishes, we are looking forward to you coming.

However, the result, hey! ...

Nie Zheng sighed secretly, thinking, the plan to capture Annan has a long way to go.

In the days to come, he will not only deport all the natives of Dai Viet, but more importantly, he must gain the trust of the Annan people.

Only by gaining the support and love of all the local Han people, can they take root in Annan County in the future, and develop and grow thoroughly.

Otherwise, without the support and support of the local people, no matter what they do in the future, they will be unable to move forward.

…………

At dusk at sunset, the sun shines lightly.

The setting sun in the sky gradually sank below the distant horizon, and slowly, the dark and thick city wall of Linjiang County in the distance slowly appeared in everyone's sight.

At this moment, under Nie Zheng's order, five thousand elite dragons and tigers suddenly spread across the field like a tide.

Nie Zheng sat on the horse, his eyes were slightly closed, and his expression was extremely serious.

Shi Zheng, Niu Meng, Xu Shijie and dozens of leaders gathered in front of him one after another, bowing and waiting for orders.

Suddenly, Nie Zheng opened his eyes suddenly, with a flash of light in his eyes, and ordered in a cold voice: "Shi Zheng!"

"Subordinates are here!"

"You lead 1000 troops to attack the north gate of Linjiang County."

"Yes, Alliance Leader!"

"Xu Shijie, you also lead 1000 troops to attack the south gate."

"Subordinates obey!"

"Su Dongshan, you lead 1000 troops to attack Ximen."

"Subordinates take orders!"

"Niu Meng, Xue Changsheng, you lead the rest of the troops and follow me to attack the east gate. Tonight, we must make a quick decision, and you must not let a single enemy go."

"Yes, lord"...
