"Master Tong, the rebels are coming, open the door quickly!"

The guards shouted anxiously.

The master stood at the entrance of the front hall, frowning as he looked at the loud knocks on the door.

"Sir, should we hide for a while?"

Tong Zhifu was extremely nervous when he heard the soldiers shouting.

"There's no need to hide. Dong won't be able to hold out for long."

"What's the use of looking for a civilian like me when the rebels come? It seems that Dong Wenfeng has already started to try all kinds of methods to cure his illness."

The master looked at the door that was shaking from being hit, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"This door can't be defended..."

Before the master could finish his words, his personal guards had already jumped over the wall.

"......" As soon as the personal soldier landed, he looked up and saw Master Tong and the master standing at the door of the front hall.

The three of them looked at each other, and the air froze for a moment.

The guards clasped their hands and saluted to Prefect Tong.

"Master Tong, the general asked you to take the people to the city gate tower immediately."

The corners of Magistrate Tong's mouth twitched twice, he sighed slowly, and walked towards the gate.

The lawyer was stunned for a moment, then quickly trotted after Magistrate Tong.

With a "swish", Magistrate Tong pulled out the bolt, opened the door with a "creaky" sound, and walked out.

The guards quickly chased after him.

"Master Tong, the general asked you to take the people to the city gate tower."

The personal soldier thought that Magistrate Tong did not hear clearly, so he reminded him again.

Prefect Tong walked to the gate of the prefectural yamen and pointed around randomly.

"The people in the city have already fled. Where can I find them?"

"Didn't you notice on your way here that there were no more civilians in Shiquan City?"

Magistrate Tong turned his head and looked straight at his guards, his eyes as cold as ice cones.

“…How is that possible!”

The soldiers' eyes were filled with disbelief.

"Heh~" Prefect Tong sneered and waved his hand towards the nearby houses.

"Go and see for yourself."

The bodyguard frowned and ran towards the house opposite.

"Clang~"

The guardsman anxiously kicked the door open, "Come out, all of you, come out..."

"Bang~"

"Where are the people....come out quickly..."

"..."

Magistrate Tong watched his personal soldiers going in and out and searching four or five houses, but not finding a single civilian, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Even if you look for it, you will find that the city has been broken and you will not be able to find a single civilian.

Of course, unless these personal soldiers go to the South City Gate to look for him.

However, the North Gate was not close to the South Gate. By the time the personal guards brought the people over, the city had already been breached.

He believed that with Xiao Yunzhan's ability, he would be able to capture Shiquan City within two hours.

It would take two hours for the personal soldiers to go to the South Gate and back.

The prerequisite is that the people cooperate. If the people struggle, it will take some time.

"How can it be!"

The guard muttered in disbelief.

When he went to the city gate tower in the morning, he saw many people walking on the road.

The soldiers' feet were numb from kicking the door, but they didn't find anyone.

All the houses were empty.

At this moment, he felt that Shiquan City was like an empty city.

Hundreds of thousands of people just disappeared like that.

"Master Tong, please follow me to the city gate tower."

The personal soldier walked up to Magistrate Tong with a sullen face, feeling very uneasy.

If he returned empty-handed, Dong Wenfeng would kill him.

Prefect Tong frowned and asked, "Why should I go with you?"

"I will stay at the prefectural government office and won't go anywhere else."

He didn't prepare the oil and didn't bring the people with him, so that madman Dong Wenfeng would probably kill him first.

"Kuacha" the guard drew out the sword from his waist and put it on Tong Zhifu's neck.

"Master Tong, I'm sorry, but the general wants to see you, you must go."

"How dare you!" The master's pupils trembled with fear and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to push the sword away.

When his hand came to the sharp sword, he had no idea where to start.

"Put it down now, you are committing treason, you are going to die..."

"Shut up!" The guard glared at the master. "If you keep talking nonsense, I will send you to hell."

The personal soldier pressed the sword in his hand against Prefect Tong's neck again, "Master Tong, please!"

Prefect Tong stared at his guards with a sneer on his face.

"As expected, there are servants for every master."

"Stop talking nonsense!" The soldier's face turned red with anger, "Hurry up and leave!"

Prefect Tong lowered his eyes to look at the sword beside his neck, and twitched the corners of his lips slightly.

"Put away your sword. I will follow you wherever you go."

"Huh!?" Magistrate Tong was about to leave, but his personal guard had not yet taken away the sword from his neck. He raised his eyelids and looked at the personal guard coldly.

The guard pursed his lips and took the sword away from Prefect Tong's neck, "Let's go!"

The master glared at his personal guard and touched the dagger in his sleeve.

He had to find an opportunity to stab Dong Wenfeng's lackey in the back.

The master's gaze moved from the back of the personal soldier to his neck, and his eyes dimmed slightly.
