The happy life of a prodigal

After finishing speaking, he got on his horse, raised his whip, and continued to walk forward.

The 200 people behind him naturally followed closely.

Then the nearby woods are not so eye-catching.

No matter how good the eyes are, it is difficult to notice that there are so many people outside the city of Qiuning Mansion.

Two hundred wolf riders kept moving forward.

move on.

After more than an hour, he stopped to rest for a while.

"General, another half an hour's walk will be the Anzhou Mansion of Dachu."

The wolf rider next to him reported.

Qi Yangong took a sip of water, looked at the map that the wolf rider handed him, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

After a while, he tied the kettle to the horse again, and said in a deep voice, "How far is the nearest village?"

"The time for two sticks of incense." The wolf rider replied.

Qi Yangong looked forward, and said coldly: "The time for revenge has come, no one will be left in the Chu people's village!"

"Yes!"

The wolf rode to salute, with a fierce look in his eyes.

After a short rest, the two hundred wolf riders got on their horses again and embarked on the road to find the village.

............

Looting villages is the most commonly used method for two parties to fight.

In addition to deterring the enemy to a certain extent and reducing the opponent's idea of ​​resistance, the most important thing is to obtain supplies.

Therefore, looting villages is a very time-consuming process.

Searching for food and tools is more troublesome than dealing with the people in the village, and it takes a lot of time.

It is efficient to be able to loot a village in about a day.

Even for tribes like the Qiyan tribe who are used to doing these things, the same is true.

only......

This time, what Qi Yangong did was not looting the village, but taking revenge...

Kill, set fire, destroy everything in sight.

Little to no purpose.

He has plenty of food, horses, and needs no supplies.

Solve a village, then go to another village non-stop.

In just two days, the yamen of Qiuning Prefecture received a letter...

Chapter 873 The Angry Prefect Qiuning

Seeing the content of this letter, the prefect Qiuning was almost furious, and his whole body was trembling.

For a moment, he couldn't even say a word!

The people around were a little curious when they saw this scene.

At the same time, I was a little apprehensive.

Judging by the expression of the magistrate, the content of this letter is obviously not good news...

After a while, someone finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "My lord, what is written in this letter?"

The magistrate Qiuning heard the voice, and just now he recovered from that state, and raised his eyes to look at the man.

Sighing, he handed the letter to him, and said leisurely, "Read it yourself."

Seeing this scene, the man became more curious and more apprehensive, and hastily reached out to take the letter.

After looking at it carefully from top to bottom, his expression changed instantly.

First it was angry, then it became even more angry, and in the end it was also full of anger.

"It's unreasonable! It's unreasonable. Those barbarians are just...just...beasts! They are not as good as beasts! Heaven and earth are wrathful, heaven and earth are wrathful!"

When everyone heard this, their expressions changed a little.

Obviously, judging from the performance of these two Shangguan, needless to say, they can also guess something.

They have stayed in the four northern states for so many years and have seen such things too many times.

It's nothing more than setting fire to the village, using the people as a shield... something like that.

Sometimes, when you see too much, you become numb.

However, at this moment, seeing the original tragedy re-enacted, it was obvious that they were still angry.

The most angry one was naturally the prefect Qiuning.

To be willing to come to such a desolate place as the four northern states, and to stick to it for so many years, more or less has some beliefs.

The prefect of Qiuning is the parents of the people in the whole prefecture.

Seeing Qi Yangong's almost frenzied behavior, he naturally behaved like this.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

After a while, Fang just let out a breath, looked at the people beside him, and said slowly: "Prepare the horse, I'm going to see General Meng!"

"Yes, my lord!"

The person next to him should naturally claim to be.

Qiuning Fucheng is not too big if you say it is big, but it is not too small if you say it is small.

From the east of the city to the west of the city, it would take about two or three sticks of incense to walk.

Of course, if you are riding a horse, it is in the blink of an eye.

Because it had been planned in advance, even with so many more people, Qiuning Prefecture still maintained the original order.

Not too confusing.

The soldiers of Qiuning Town were scattered at various city gates, guarding the most critical position.

Among them, the North City Gate is the most important gate.

This place directly faces the main camp of Qi Yanxiong.

If Qi Yanxiong launches an attack, this place will be the first to be attacked, and the place that will be attacked the most.

Therefore, Qiu Ninghou, the general of the important town, is naturally guarding here.

inside the tent.

Qiu Ning Hou Mengzhuang looked at the map while drinking wine.

In such a remote and bitterly cold place, only wine can alleviate the loneliness a little.

Only wine can make people forget the pain. Although it is only short-lived, it is also very precious.

Therefore, the main generals in all important towns have the habit of drinking.

If they won the battle, even ordinary soldiers would be rewarded with wine.

A glass of wine bottomed out.

Meng Zhuang was about to ask the guards to pour wine when he heard a voice.

"General, the prefect of Qiuning is asking to see you."

The four northern states are a very special existence in Dachu.

According to common sense, the highest status in the state capital is naturally the magistrate, or the Jiedushi.

However, it is not the case in the four northern states.

The highest status is the general of the important town.

Not to mention the status of the important town generals themselves, their honorable status is enough to suppress these magistrates.

Therefore, the guard used the word 'ask for a meeting'!

"allow."

Meng Zhuang doesn't like to talk nonsense, the language is extremely concise, just one word.

"Yes, General!"

The same is true for his bodyguards, who do things without the slightest sloppiness.

In just a moment, the prefect Qiuning was brought to Meng Zhuang's big tent.

"General, the officer came here this time to ask for something."

The magistrate Qiu Ning stood upright and saluted before speaking.

Meng Zhuang's gaze never left the map on the table, and when he heard this sentence, his expression and movements did not change at all.

Just said a word lightly: "Say."

No extra words.

It is not the first time that Qiu Ning prefect and Meng Zhuang have met, but what kind of person this General Meng is.

Therefore, knowing the word "say" at this moment is not to belittle.

He hesitated for a moment, and said: "The lower official wants to ask the general for a loan."

Maybe it's because of getting along with Meng Zhuang, the problem of this literati's rambling is gone in the prefect of Qiuning.

It directly explained the purpose of coming, without those going around, let alone the nonsense of those messy literati.

After hearing this, Meng Zhuang raised his eyes, glanced at him, and asked with a solemn expression, "What's the matter?"

"Rescue!"

The magistrate Qiuning spoke forcefully, and his eyes did not dodge in the slightest.

"Save who?"

Meng Zhuang asked again.

"People."

Prefect Qiuning's expression also remained unchanged.

After hearing this, Meng Zhuang felt a little funny, and his expression changed a little.

Can't tell if it's sarcasm or ridicule or some other emotion.

He said: "The 2 people from the Begging Yan Department have surrounded this place, what is more important than protecting the people here?

500 people... 500 people can do a lot and a lot.

It is enough to save one commoner, but it is too difficult to save the commoners in the four northern states! "

The words are very simple, but the meaning is very clear.

Let's not talk about whether these 500 people can leave Qiuning Prefecture City.

Even if they leave, what role can these 500 people play?

It's better to stay in Qiuning Fucheng, don't go out and be treated as a dish by others!

The prefect of Qiuning naturally understood what Meng Zhuang meant.

After thinking for a while, he still took out the letter from his pocket, stepped forward, handed it to Meng Zhuang, and said, "General, please have a look."

"You don't need to look over it. This general knows that it's nothing more than the things that little thief Qi Yangong did in An Zhou Mansion..."

When Meng Zhuang said this, his expression didn't change at all, but there was a cold light in his eyes.

Seeing this scene, the prefect Qiuning didn't know what to say for a while.

He opened his mouth and said: "Since the general knows, how can he remain indifferent? The people of Qiuning Mansion are the people of Da Chu, and the people of Anzhou Mansion are also the people of Da Chu.
