Loan Wusheng

Chapter 121 I will temporarily serve as the governor of Kangle County. Do you have any objection?

Retracting his thoughts, Zheng Jun looked in the direction of Wei Quan, only to see that Wei Quan was fighting back and forth with these two unworthy of the name outer Gang, but was still at a disadvantage, and used the "Flowing Shadow Floating Life Fist to Suppress Mountains and Rivers" to resist.

Seeing this, Zheng Jun was not in a hurry. He stretched out his hand, and the Qingjin Zhenqi surged, directly sucking a chair over. Then he sat down calmly and watched the battle.

Everything is solved, I can just sit back and do nothing.

As soon as this thought came to his mind, the Qingjin True Energy flashed, and two more demon inner cores appeared in Zheng Jun's palm.

One that glows with a faint golden glow is the inner elixir of the monkey demon.

The other one was the inner elixir of the unicorn dragon that had just been killed.

The two magic pills, like walnuts, were held in Zheng Jun's hands. Looking at the fight in front of him, it was quite similar to the dandy young masters in the capital city walking their birds in cages.

The two female members of the Yuanlong Sect were frightened out of their wits.

The movements of the hands were completely distorted.

After all, in their minds, dragons are the strongest and most outstanding race in the whole world, and ordinary monsters are far superior to humans. Along the way, humans can only become blood food for dragons and monsters.

But they never expected that a general suddenly came and was so powerful that in less than an hour, he killed their two senior brothers, the owner of the local villa, Mr. Yuan and the Young Dragon Master!
How could they not be horrified by this? !
They were already in a daze and could not fight any further. The disheveled female member of the sect could not help but yelled coquettishly, "General, please spare my life. I was forced by that evil dragon and had no choice but to do this. I hope you will spare my life!"

Another undressed almond-eyed girl from the sect also quickly retreated, drew her sword, and looked at Zheng Jun and Wei Quan with a pitiful look.

Seeing that the two women were no longer fighting, Wei Quan's pressure was suddenly relieved. He scratched his head, retreated to Zheng Jun's side, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

For Wei Quan, this battle was truly exhilarating.

"Spare your life?"

Zheng Jun shook his head, looked at Wei Quan, and said, "Xiao Wei, you can handle these two people. How do you think we should deal with them?"

Hearing Zheng Jun's words, the two women looked at Wei Quan at the same time, revealing a charming look on their faces.

Although Wei Quan was young and in love, he also knew the background of these two women. A trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, and he immediately bowed his hands and said, "Master Zheng! These two are human beings, but they helped the tyrant to do evil, bowed down to serve the evil dragon, and slaughtered our people! If we don't kill these treacherous people, we will not be able to appease the people who have been slaughtered by the evil dragons and demon apes along the way!"

"it is good."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Jun nodded immediately.

When the two women heard Wei Quan say "aiding and abetting Zhou's evil", they were so frightened that they immediately turned into two streams of light and tried to escape.

But Zheng Jun did not hesitate. A golden light flashed from his waist, and in an instant, two heads fell to the ground.

[Golden light wins, two kills with one strike. The repayment progress of 'Yiri Liuguang' is +25, and the current repayment progress is: 2404/3000. ]

It's really garbage, but it does grow.

Zheng Jun nodded in agreement. He suddenly felt that this seemed to be a method of mass-producing external energy.

As long as we obtain this method of the Yuanlong Sect and capture two outer Gang demons, wouldn't we be able to mass-produce some outer Gang?

Well, if such a situation ever arises in the future, you can give it a try.

Although the quality of these produced outer Gangs is extremely poor, even if they use the demon's method of shortening lifespan and increasing combat power, they are barely similar to normal outer Gangs.

But it is an outer Gang after all, so there is no problem in bullying ordinary people who refine blood and accumulate qi.

Sheathing the long sword, Zheng Jun looked at Wei Quan, nodded slightly in approval, and then said, "Let's go, pack our bags and go to Kangle County."

"Yes, Master Zheng!"

Wei Quan bowed and followed Zheng Jun out.

However, Wei Quan was extremely happy.

This time, following the general, it really opened my eyes!
The general is so strong, he is truly a role model for our generation!
Wei Quan thought in his heart.

Not long after, Zheng Jun came out of the villa. More than 20 riders were still waiting for Zheng Jun outside the villa. When they saw Zheng Jun and Wei Quan coming out of the villa, more than 20 riders came forward to greet them and said some flattering words. Zheng Jun just raised his hand to stop the flattery around him.

"General, are we going back to the camp next?"

Yang Jun, who was riding a motley horse, asked Zheng Jun cautiously, "General, our army is the Black Mountain Army after all, and is affiliated with Pingzhang County. We have stayed in Kangle County for too long. If the court blames us, we..."

When Zheng Jun heard this, he just looked up at Yang Jun with a calm expression and a slightly cold voice: "Go to Kangle County City. Chen Jingzhong is besieging the city. I have received reliable information that Feng Gongfu, the governor of Kangle County, wants to surrender to the bandits. We have recovered the four counties of Kangle, but Feng Gongfu did not open the gate to welcome us. He is waiting for the bandits to attack and wait for a good price!"

"If we don't take down this city, wouldn't we be ashamed of the imperial court and His Majesty?"

Zheng Jun's voice sounded dignified, and Yang Jun felt ashamed, and dared not say anything more.

Zheng Jun thought to himself, "Kangle County is in a good location. Although it is located in a plain, the four counties of Heishan, Zhiyuan, Rongyuan and Pingyun in Pingzhang County behind it are surrounded by mountains and rivers, which is a favorable terrain. If I can take down Kangle County, I will have all ten counties. If Zhang Bengong attacks, I will be the one to deal with him. In this case, taking down Kangle County will also be very helpful to me!"

"With ten counties, not considering the soldiers who have fought hundreds of battles, we should be able to gather tens of thousands of people just by recruiting civilians, right?"

'In this way, I can also take the initiative. Feng Gongfu's occupation of the only big city, Kangle County City, is also a problem. We must take down this county city! If there are changes in the world in the future, it can also save me a lot of problems. '

Zheng Jun thought in his heart.

According to his strategic plan, the strategic buffer area of Kangle County must be taken, otherwise if it is handed over to those stupid teammates, then it will be the end of him, and the war will directly burn to his core area, Heishan County.

As soon as he thought of this, Zheng Jun spurred his horse and whipped it, his inner energy surging.

The green-maned horse neighed and stomped forward.

The twenty or so riders behind him, seeing Zheng Jun spurring his horse and whipping it, immediately tightened their horses' bellies, followed Zheng Jun closely, and galloped towards Kangle together.

……

The seat of Kangle County was a city called "Leheng".

However, usually people call this kind of city a "county city", naming it after the county, and forget the original name of the city.

But this city standing on the plain is now on high alert.

With the naked eye, it was visible that there was a faint halo attached to the city wall, the city gates were closed, several corpses were floating in the moat, and the large number of corpses outside the county city dyed the surrounding land a deep red.

The once prosperous place has now become a dead wilderness.

Zheng Jun rode over. Outside the city, there was a camp set up by Heishan, with about 1,500 people. When Chen Jingzhong saw Zheng Jun coming with 20 riders, he immediately left the camp to greet Zheng Jun, saying respectfully, "General."

"Jingzhong's camp is well set up."

Zheng Jun looked at the endless military tents, chevaux de frise, and the patrolling scouts that occasionally left the camp, and nodded with satisfaction, saying, "Jing Zhong has the talent to lead a large army, but it would be unfair for Jing Zhong to lead these 1,800 men under my command."

"It is a blessing for me to serve under the general."

Chen Jingzhong was neither humble nor arrogant, and greeted with a bow.

Seeing this, Zheng Jun nodded again, staring at Kangle County City, looking at the faint halo on the city wall, and couldn't help asking: "What is that?"

"Replying to the general, it is to protect the town."

Chen Jingzhong immediately said, "Any big city must have a town guard. The town guard uses spiritual objects as a guide. If a large army attacks, the defenders must use the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to consolidate the city."

“Otherwise, if a powerful person cuts down the city wall with a sword, there will be no difference between the big city and the small city.”

Upon hearing this, Zheng Jun nodded.

Yes.

That makes sense.

However, defending the city in this way does not mean being invincible.

After all, spiritual objects are limited, and over time, they will be exhausted one day.

Zheng Jun did not continue to ask about the usefulness of this "guard town", but pointed to the piles of bones floating in front of the Kangle County City Gate and in the moat, and asked immediately: "What happened to those corpses? Didn't they say that the two thieves Fan Tai and Ding Ming passed through the city and did not approach the county town at all?"

After hearing Zheng Jun's words, Chen Jingzhong also thought it was very reasonable, and immediately said: "General, I asked around when I came here. This is the body of a civilian who took refuge. When the two bandits Fan and Ding were plundering the area, the civilians fled to the county town. County Magistrate Feng was worried that there were bandits among them, so he ordered the county soldiers to shoot them..."

After hearing this, Zheng Jun couldn't help but nod slightly, his expression calm, as if he didn't have much reaction.

But his eyes were full of coldness.

"Why hasn't Feng Gongfu opened the door yet?"

Zheng Jun opened his mouth coldly and continued, "I have killed the two thieves Fan and Ding. The thieves in Kangle County have been solved. He still hasn't opened the door. What does he want to do?"

Chen Jingzhong remained silent.

He didn't know the reason either.

There were about 1,800 defenders in the city, which was exactly the configuration of a team.

But there were only 1,500 people who came to besiege the city.

Half of them were recruited locally and were new soldiers, so their fighting ability was not outstanding.

Zheng Jun now has six divisions under his command, each with five hundred men, for a total of three thousand men.

Among them, only one thousand were old soldiers, and the remaining two thousand were new soldiers recruited from Kangle County.

But there is one good thing. Tongzhouhui is heading to Kangle County and is solving the refugee problem. Forty to fifty thousand refugees are being resettled.

"Gather all the troops, including the refugees. I want to deploy at least 20,000 men outside this city."

Zheng Jun said coldly: "Come with your bow and pen!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jingzhong wanted to persuade Zheng Jun that numbers were useless and that they would be slaughtered on the battlefield without weapons. However, considering that perhaps General Zheng wanted to use refugees to consume the arrows and energy of the soldiers in the city, he swallowed his words and said, "Yes."

However, Chen Jingzhong still had an idea that he hadn't expressed.

That is……

If we attack the city openly, wouldn't that be tantamount to treason?
The Great Zhou Dynasty has not fallen yet. Although Feng Gongfu is not a decent person, he is still a county governor appointed by the court, a high-ranking official...

Although he had some doubts in his heart, Chen Jingzhong kept them to himself and never showed them.

If the general insists on doing so, then he will obey.

The order given to him by the Regent was to loyally assist Zheng Sanlang.

In the absence of new orders, we will naturally sacrifice our lives and shed our blood.

Soon, two soldiers came with pens, ink, bows and arrows.

Seeing this, Zheng Jun picked up the pen without hesitation, wrote eight words in a very eloquent manner, then rolled it up and tied it to the arrow.

Then he bent his bow, drew his arrow, and shot towards the Kangle County City.

In an instant, a streak of light shot out from the bow in Zheng Jun's hand and flew straight towards Kangle County City.

The speed is as fast as thunder.

After shooting an arrow, Zheng Jun ignored it and went into the military camp, ready to practice meditation.

He is about to break through the second level of outer power, and he wants to break through the second level completely in Kangle County City!
Feng Gongfu should not be ungrateful.

"..."

"boom!"

The arrow was accurate and shot a small hole directly on the town wall, then penetrated into the city and hit the city wall directly, startling a group of county soldiers guarding the city.

The county soldiers all thought that this was the signal of the Black Mountain Army to attack the city, and they all became extremely nervous in an instant.

But soon, they found that this did not seem to be a siege signal. Some brave people took out the arrows and saw the small letter tied to it.

He did not dare to delay for even a second and hurried forward to report to the sergeant.

So, the report was passed up the chain of command.

Soon, it was passed to Feng Gongfu, the governor of Kangle County.

After receiving the letter, Feng Gongfu, the governor of Kangle County, was startled. He opened it and his expression turned cold. He said angrily, "You lowly Black Mountain jailer, you are so arrogant!"

There are only eight words on the letter, not counting the signature.

"Open the city and surrender, and I will spare your life."

Zheng Jun.

Seeing this, a feathered strategist at the side could not help but say: "Mr. Feng, although this Black Mountain kid is rampant, he is also confident! The two thieves Fan Tai and Ding Ming swept in and shocked Kang Le! They were defeated by this Black Mountain kid. In addition, I also heard that the big thief Lu Hao on Black Mountain was also killed by this kid, and the Canghai faction in Pingzhang County was also wiped out by him..."

"The situation in Bozhou is corrupt. Most of the Tongqiao warriors come from aristocratic families and are unwilling to take action. The Tongqiao who are loyal to the court are no match for Zhang Bengong. Just like General Yan of Yanting County, he is over 240 years old and still wants to go out to serve the country... In this situation, the court will definitely rely more on this boy. It is the right way to avoid the sharp edge for the time being."

The counselor's analysis makes a lot of sense.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the situation is not in their favor now.

Naturally you have to be patient.

However, Feng Gongfu frowned and whispered, "This guy is too arrogant. If I bow my head, I will surely be laughed at by everyone! There are only three or two thousand people outside the city, and I still have two thousand elite soldiers in the city. Relying on the city's defense, it cannot be broken without a thousand soldiers! So there is nothing to fear. If he has the guts, come and attack! Without the order of the court, I will definitely not open the city gate!"

He was particularly angry when talking.

This Feng Gongfu was born in the Feng family in Guanzhong.

They are a powerful family in Guanzhong.

My ancestors once followed Emperor Shenwu to rise up from Guanzhong, assisted the emperor in pacifying the world, and had the merit of destroying countries, which is why they became prominent.

Although he is a little lonely now, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Feng Gongfu will naturally not tolerate a peasant like Zheng Jun riding on his head!
If it was the Xingyang Zheng, it would be fine, but what is the Heishan Zheng? !

After hearing Feng Gongfu's words, the strategist who followed him from Guanzhong couldn't help but sigh, but said nothing.

Doing so will inevitably intensify the conflicts between local officials and generals leading troops in battle.

His master was a coward, and was worried that the bandits were pretending to be soldiers and were coming to seize his city.

Now that he knows he has done something wrong, he still insists on being stubborn.

Difficult, difficult, difficult!
Just as the counselors were sighing, Feng Gongfu suddenly said, "Most of the county soldiers are from this county. They were not allowed to go to the battle a few days ago and they have been quite complaining. We need to give them more rewards to prevent them from opening the city."

"When I came to take up my post, I brought 50,000 taels of silver with me. Now I still have 20,000 taels left. I have to pay a tribute of 100,000 taels to Kangle County. I will give 30,000 taels as profit to the soldiers to prevent them from getting discouraged."

After hearing Feng Gongfu's words, the strategist nodded immediately and left calmly.

Looking at the counselor's leaving back, Feng Gongfu felt a little relieved.

"If we take 30,000 taels of property to support the army, we should be able to fool those thieves. I think there will be no danger."

Feng Gongfu murmured to himself, thinking in his heart.

The counselor who received the order from Feng Gongfu sent a few servants to the storehouse, took out 30,000 taels of silver, and then coughed and said, "Mr. Feng has ordered that 20,000 taels of silver be used to pay the soldiers. Send it to General Wang immediately, and the remaining 10,000 taels be sent to my mansion. It is for Mr. Feng to purchase military supplies."

Upon hearing this, the servants did not dare to refuse, and hurriedly loaded the car and headed towards the residence of General Wang, the leader of the city defense team.

Soon, 18,000 taels of silver fell into General Wang's hands.

Looking at the 18,000 taels of silver, General Wang waved his hand and said, "Mr. Feng Renyi, reward the soldiers with 8,000 taels! Distribute it to the heads of each unit and let them share it according to their quota!"

"Yes!"

"..."

While the officials in the city were making money, the troops outside the city were being deployed.

By midnight, all 3,000 troops were in place.

Among them, there were only 1,100 people, who were the main force that Zheng Jun brought from Pingzhang County.

The remaining 1,900 or so were all soldiers selected from local refugees.

The bandits and soldiers from the old camp who had been spared death by drawing lots were singled out and lined up in the front.

In addition, Zheng Jun also gathered refugees from the surrounding Judong County. They formed a huge crowd and, taking advantage of the torches at night, they looked quite powerful.

The shock of seeing a crowd of over 10,000 people was truly dazed.

And it was the first time for Zheng Jun to see such a large crowd.

The crowd was in turmoil, but they were able to hold on.

The reason was that Zheng Jun assigned 500 Pingzhang veterans, plus some members of the Tongzhou Society, to organize these 10,000 people and avoid riots.

Zheng Jun also felt very helpless about this.

It is really difficult to truly unite ten thousand minds.

I've joked before that he has the potential to be a good general, but it seems that's not the case at all.

A qualified general must be able to plan ahead and behind the scenes and manage the food, drink, defecation and urination of an army.

At present, I am still reluctant to do this.

All he had was the help of the 'Da Dao Wu Shu', which enabled him to form the formation smoothly without any effort.

If Chen Jingzhong had not been there to help, Zheng Jun's current situation would probably have developed into a situation similar to that of Fan Tai and Ding Ming.

"General, we have the support of the masses. I have asked people to collect the remaining blades and distribute them to the refugees at any time. I will use a large sum of money to reward the brave refugees and let them charge in the front. I will personally lead a hundred brave men to follow behind. We will definitely be able to set up the ladder and attack the city!"

Chen Jingzhong bowed aside and said, "I should be able to hold out for three quarters of an hour. I hope you will seize the opportunity."

"Who said I was going to attack the city?"

Zheng Jun turned around and glanced at Chen Jingzhong, then said, "Call all the captains, centurions, and decapitation officers from Kangle County in the general's army."

Chen Jingzhong didn't understand what was going on, but he still followed orders and immediately called over thirty people.

"General!"

More than thirty people shouted in unison.

"No gift."

Zheng Jun smiled, looked at the anxious soldiers in front of him, and said gently, "Do you know any of the county soldiers in the city?"

After hearing Zheng Jun's words, everyone was startled, and then they started to talk about it:
"General, this is the third team of the Kangle Camp. The team leader Zhao Feng and I are brothers and we learned boxing from the same master!"

"My nephew is serving in the army in the city."

"..."

Everybody was eager to try, and everyone was vying to write letters and shoot them into the city to persuade their relatives to surrender.

Seeing this, Zheng Jun couldn't help but laugh, shook his head and said, "No need to do that, I just want to confirm that there are people from various counties in the county in the city."

"General, most of the county soldiers are selected from the county soldiers, and nearly 70% of the soldiers are from the counties outside the city." A centurion said cleverly.

Zheng Jun nodded when he heard this, and then asked, "That's great... Do you usually sing local folk songs?"

"Song?"

“Who can’t sing this?”

"It's just that the singing is not very good..."

"I can only hum a few words while farming."

"..."

Everyone immediately responded enthusiastically to Zheng Jun's question.

Zheng Jun nodded again after hearing this, and then asked, "Are there any popular folk songs in recent months, such as those that curse the imperial court or the world?"

As soon as Zheng Jun said this, these people were instantly embarrassed.

Of course there is.

But you are a high-ranking official in the court, why are you asking this?

Seeing this, Zheng Jun knew that they had misunderstood, and immediately said: "It doesn't matter. The situation has deteriorated to this point, it must be because the court is unqualified and has done a bad job. It doesn't matter if I scold them!"

After hearing what Zheng Jun said, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and started talking at once.

After listening to it, Zheng Jun immediately asked someone to record it and made up a little tune to hum.

In addition, Zheng Jun summarized the songs of those people before.

For example, I would hum along while farming, I would hear local singing girls singing in brothels, everyone would sing along when getting married, I would sing while putting children to sleep... at one time, there were no less than seven or eight songs.

After deciding on the song, Zheng Jun immediately said, "After returning to the camp, immediately teach all the soldiers of Kangle County in the camp to sing. When I give the order, they will sing in unison."

Everyone was still suspicious and didn't know why.

Invite everyone to come to the city in the middle of the night and sing together?
Although they were full of doubts, they still bowed and took their leave, and returned to the camp to teach the songs.

Seeing this, Zheng Jun couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He looked at the fortified and well-maintained Kangle County City from afar and sneered, "Feng Gongfu, using this trick on you is really flattering you!"

The Han army has already occupied the land, and the sound of Chu songs can be heard everywhere.

Xiang Yu's army was unable to use this tactic when they were besieged.

This is the case with the defenders in this city.

What's more, Zheng Jun had just confirmed that 70% of the defenders in the city came from the counties under the prefecture.

Their hometown was devastated, but their commander ordered them to guard the city and prevent the fleeing people from entering.

Naturally, there was a lot of resentment, and compared to the Battle of Mawei Slope, there was no trying to hide or give in.

Zheng Jun just didn't believe that he could not stir up the situation in Kangle County City? !
Soon, singing began to be heard from the tent.

The accent of Kangle County is similar. Some people may not be able to pronounce it, but after singing along a few times, they will be able to do it.

Among the refugees, there were some who knew each other well, and when they heard someone singing a folk song from their hometown, they would unconsciously hum along.

Suddenly, the humming sound became louder and louder.

Seeing this, Zheng Jun did not hesitate and directly ordered everyone to sing loudly.

"The world is in turmoil, disasters are frequent. Homes are destroyed, people flee everywhere; the places where we used to live have become desolate. Family members are scattered, and no one knows where they are."

"In the storm, I am alone and lost. Hungry and cold, worried and sad; I have no place to stay, drifting in a foreign land. The night is long, and my clothes are wet with tears."

"The road ahead is long and boundless, where is my home? I am homeless and filled with resentment. The years are long and the suffering is endless. I pray for peace and a return home."

In an instant, tens of thousands of refugees and soldiers began to sing. The sound, which was small at the beginning, became huge and turned into sound waves, sinking into Kangle City.

……

On the city wall of Kangle City, the soldiers of Kangle County were resting against the wall.

Get together in groups of two or three to chat with each other to stay awake and avoid falling asleep.

"There are so many bandits outside!"

One soldier could not help but say: "These country bumpkins from Yanting County, why do they come here instead of staying at home? How hateful, how hateful! My mother is alone at home, and I don’t know what’s going on…"

Another soldier also spoke up: "The people outside the city claim to be the Black Mountain Army, coming to help from Pingzhang County. I always feel that what they say seems to be true. The military system is similar, and they look too much like our officers and soldiers."

"County governor, general, they all said that there are bandits outside the city, so that must be the case. Pingzhang County is busy with its own affairs, so how could it possibly come to help us? I have never heard of any Black Mountain Army, only Black Mountain Bandits."

"..."

The soldiers were talking at once, and many of them couldn't help but cover their faces and cry when they talked about their relatives at home.

After all, many of them live in counties and towns outside.

I don’t know whether my family has suffered any disaster or whether the bandits have visited.

At this moment, a squad leader came over, holding a money bag, and shouted, "Everyone, wake up, the county magistrate Feng Gong has given out rewards."

After hearing what the captain said, everyone slowly stopped worrying and looked at him.

Those whose homes were in the county town were even more delighted, but because the expressions of their comrades around them were not so happy, they suppressed their joy.

One of them couldn't help but say, "I heard about it this afternoon! The clerks in the county governor's office also received rewards, and each of them seemed to have received three taels of silver! We who are guarding the city here should get five taels, right?"

"Five taels?"

Hearing this, the chief looked strange and immediately threw the purse in front of everyone: "These are all I have."

When everyone gathered around and took a look, they discovered that there was no silver in it, but only copper coins.

And the number is small, only more than 2,000.

Each of them can get about 200 copper coins.

Altogether, it is about two cents of silver.

"this?"

The soldiers looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"We are standing on the city wall defending it in the cold wind, aren't we better than the servants in the county magistrate's mansion?!" A soldier flew into a rage and threw the copper coin in his hand, saying angrily.

"Is the county governor trying to humiliate us?"

"Two coins of silver? If you go out of the city to suppress the bandits within ten days, you will get one coin of silver!"

"It's better to surrender to the thieves!"

"..."

Suddenly, the crowd was furious.

Seeing this situation, the sergeant was helpless.

He only has three or two.

The same treatment as the servants in the county magistrate's mansion.

Just when everyone was indignant, a ballad suddenly came from outside the city.

"The world is in turmoil, disasters are frequent. Homes are destroyed, people flee everywhere; the place where I used to live has become a wasteland..."

The lyrics are relatively unfamiliar, but the tone is very familiar, it is the local language.

For a moment, the soldiers who were originally angry suddenly fell silent.

Didn’t they say there were bandits outside?

Soon, the ballad ended and another ballad about farming days was sung.

One song after another.

The city was dead silent.

Until suddenly, a county soldier couldn't help but sing along.

This immediately triggered a chain reaction.

The soldiers on the city wall also started singing along.

The sound continued from outside the city to inside the city, and also reached the ears of Wang Tang, the captain of the third team of Kangle Camp, who was preparing to patrol the city wall.

Wang Tang, his cultivation level is only at the first level of outer power.

He is the captain of the weakest team among the six teams in Kangle County.

That's why he was left to guard the house.

As soon as he climbed onto the city wall, he heard the continuous local tune in his ears. He was startled for a moment and looked up. He saw the copper coins scattered on the city wall, the soldiers' tears, and the high-pitched singing.

Many soldiers have already thrown away their weapons.

Hiding in the corner, silent.

It seems that he may walk down the city wall at any time.

Seeing this situation, Wang Tang's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

After a while, the singing stopped.

After a pause, he started singing again.

"General Wang!"

Suddenly, a soldier noticed Wang Tang's arrival and immediately shouted, "Didn't you say that the people outside are bandits from Yanting County? How could bandits know the nursery rhymes of our hometown?!"

"what happened?!"

"Did you deceive me?!"

"..."

This remark awakened the soldiers from their dream, and all of them looked towards the direction of the royal hall. The sounds of swords being unsheathed could be heard one after another.

Among them, there were several Qi-accumulating captains who were also glaring angrily, and even many soldiers spontaneously stood behind those Qi-accumulating captains, seemingly forming a military formation.

Seeing this, Wang Tang broke out in a cold sweat and shouted, "I didn't know about this either! I am from Changle County, and you all know me! How could I harm the people of this county!"

A soldier who followed Wang Tang up the city wall suddenly had an idea and shouted, "It's all the prefect's fault! He deceived us!"

"That's right, it's all Feng Gongfu's fault!"

"Listen to the ballad, Baima County was massacred, and my family is gone!"

"Kill that bastard Feng Gongfu!"

"..."

Amid the shouting, Wang Tang wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at the soldiers beside him with gratitude, and immediately shouted, "Hurry up and open the city gates to welcome the villagers into the city!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Tang radiated his true energy and condensed his energy into a god. He immediately shouted, "First City, Second City, follow me to form a formation, charge into the county governor's mansion, capture Feng Gongfu, and present him to Duke Zheng!"

The sound was like a loud bell. In an instant, six hundred soldiers stood up and moved forward, quickly forming a battle formation, vowing to kill Feng Gongfu!
"..."

"What's that sound outside?"

In the prefect's mansion, Feng Gongfu was slightly puzzled. Holding a letter in his hand, he said to the counselor who came to report the situation: "Why are you suddenly singing so loudly and disturbing my sweet dreams? Send an order quickly, no more singing!"

The counselor's face, however, had turned completely pale at this moment.

Of course he recognized what the sound was.

"Mr. Feng, this is... a local tune, sung from outside the city."

The counselor was sweating profusely and trembling as he spoke: "The city, I'm afraid it will be..."

Before the counselor could finish his words, Feng Gongfu's personal servant rushed in in a panic and shouted to Feng Gongfu, "Mr. Feng, this is bad. General Wang has rebelled and led the defenders to surrender! Now he is leading his soldiers to attack us in battle array!"

"what?!"

Feng Gongfu was stunned.

However, before he could remain stunned for long, he felt a powerful pressure coming. He quickly stood up to take a look, only to see that Wang Tang had formed a battle formation and rushed into the county magistrate's mansion, killing and wounding all the servants!
"Wang Tang, damn it!"

Feng Gongfu's face changed drastically and he was extremely angry. Air waves rolled in his palms, and a vast silver energy was released along Feng Gongfu's arms.

It is truly majestic!

He is a warrior at the third level of outer power!
How could he not have his own skills if he could be the county magistrate here? !

but……

The enemy is powerful, so you need to give way to him.

When Feng Gongfu thought of this, he did not hesitate, and he directly took off into the air and flew towards the distance at an extremely fast speed!

The strategist was stunned when he saw this, but he reacted the next moment.

Mr. Feng, you didn’t take me with you!
For a moment, the counselor's face was filled with despair.

But at this moment, a flash of golden light suddenly appeared in the direction of the silver light that was escaping into the distance.

The next second, the golden light instantly shot down the silver light that was escaping into the distance.

Blood spilled in the air.

Seeing this, the counselor couldn't help but shout out for joy.

Fortunately.

Fortunately, Mr. Feng didn’t take me with him.

But at this moment, Wang Tang had already rushed into the county magistrate's mansion.

There was no sign of Feng Gongfu around, so Wang Tang immediately said to the soldiers with great righteousness: "It was this thief who deceived the county governor and issued the order!"

"kill!"

Upon hearing this, the soldiers mobilized their true energy and rushed forward, chopping the strategist into meat paste.

After seeing the counselor being completely chopped into a meat paste, Wang Tang breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself: "Mr. Feng, Mr. Feng, please don't say that I didn't help you. I can only save you so far. From now on, you can only wish you good luck. "

Then, Wang Tang waved his hand, signaling the soldiers who had vented their anger to guard the county magistrate's mansion properly.

Meet the new owner.

……

A golden light flashed, and Feng Gongfu's silver light was instantly shattered.

He fell directly into a house in the city, causing great panic among the family.

But before Feng Gongfu could get up, he saw a sapphire light landing in the distance. Looking at the frightened family not far away, Zheng Jun casually threw out five taels of silver and said, "Use these five taels to buy supper. Stay away."

"Tomorrow, remember to go to the county magistrate's office to ask me for money to repair the roof."

The family took the silver and immediately obeyed the order to hide away.

Only Zheng Jun and Feng Gongfu were left in this house.

"Zheng, General Zheng."

Feng Gongfu's face was a little pale. Zheng Jun's knife just now did cause some psychological trauma to Feng Gongfu, but Feng Gongfu only had some blood dripping on his arm and was not seriously injured.

He stood up, clasped his hands, and said to Zheng Jun: "I misjudged it earlier and thought it was the bandits attacking the city, so I didn't open the city gates. I didn't expect that it was General Zheng's army that arrived. I am really ashamed, ashamed! Feng has 90,000 taels of silver here, and I want to apologize to General Zheng. I don't know if General Zheng..."

Zheng Jun was too lazy to talk to Feng Gongfu, and just asked, "Were you the one who ordered the shooting of the refugees outside the city?"

Hearing this, Feng Gongfu's scalp tingled. He did not give a direct answer, but said: "I am from the Feng family in Guanzhong! My father is a secretary in the court! My uncle is a lieutenant in the Changshui Camp of the Southern Army! General Zheng, I failed to defend the territory this time, and I will definitely be held accountable by the court. General Zheng asked me to return to Guanzhong. I will use the power of my family to recommend you to the court as the governor of Kangle County. What do you think?"

"Were you the one who ordered the shooting of the civilians fleeing outside the city?"

Zheng Jun slowly drew out the Xue Shou Sword, and the blade seemed to be shining under the moonlight.

"It's me, so what?!"

Seeing this, Feng Gongfu immediately threw the jar into the air and said sternly: "Don't think that just because you killed a few country folks, I am a loser!"

After saying that, a silver energy burst out from Feng Gongfu's body, blowing the corners of his clothes. He snorted coldly, "I am the county governor appointed by the court, a member of the Feng family in Guanzhong. So what if I gave the order? What can you do to me?!"

"It's fine if it's you."

With a cold snort, a swift stream of air blew towards Feng Gongfu's face, making it impossible for him to open his eyes.

Zheng Jun's heart was filled with murderous intent, and Feng Gongfu was no less murderous. The flashing silver light formed a sharp contrast with the golden light.

"boom!"

In an instant, the surging airflow came down with a bang, blowing up billowing smoke and dust!
The collision between the golden light and the silver light reached its peak in an instant, and the houses shook violently, with the roofs collapsing and shaking.

It's like an earthquake!

Not only the house built by Zheng Jun and Feng Gongfu, but the entire row of houses began to crack as if struck by lightning.

After a collision, Zheng Jun slashed down with his sword, but found that he was evenly matched with Feng Gongfu. He was stunned for a moment, snorted coldly, and fell far away, his clothes fluttering wildly.

The next moment, Zheng Jun activated the Jade-Breaking Skill in his body, and the cyan-gold energy surged out like water. The pouring power turned into a dazzling light.
"The lowly Black Mountain police official..."

Feng Gongfu was shocked and felt extremely dangerous and puzzled.

why? !

I am from the Feng family in Guanzhong.

My family has supernatural powers to protect me. Although I have only learned a few tricks, it is enough to establish my authority among the outer gangs.

After all, those magical powers, unless they are extremely amazing, can only be mastered after one has achieved enlightenment.

And now, having learned a few tricks, I am actually somewhat inferior to his opponent?

Could it be that Zheng Jun also learned a few tricks of magical power? !

Feng Gongfu's heart was racing with anxiety, and in the rippling dust around him, Zheng Jun's figure suddenly rushed out again and slashed towards Feng Gongfu!
The golden light disappeared.

Instead, the screen is filled with brilliance!
"Death!"

A roar shook the earth!
Feng Gongfu was shocked when he saw this, and the silver energy in his body was mobilized again!

It's just that the half-powered magical power he mastered consumed too much energy, so that he couldn't mobilize his true energy in time!

In the past, I could always defeat the enemy with one move.

Now that the move is over, what can I use to resist? !

"Fight!"

Feng Gongfu clenched his teeth, and a silver light shone brightly on his body, attached to his body surface, like the roar of a dragon or a tiger, shaking it down in an instant!
The Feng family's magical power is a body-protecting training!
Descend the Three Ages of Wisdom King!
Even though he only knew one move, it was enough to resist!

With this thought in mind, Feng Gongfu took the blow head-on!

"boom--!"

With a loud bang, the dust cleared away.

Zheng Jun was panting, a lot of the internal energy in his body had been consumed, and the qingjin internal energy was seriously depleted.

This single blow indeed exhausted half of Zheng Jun's true energy. It was his strongest attack while still maintaining combat status.

After all, Zheng Jun had never expected Feng Gongfu to be so powerful.

You are so strong, why do you want to avoid Fan Tai and Ding Ming? !

The murderous intent in Zheng Jun's eyes became more and more intense.

Feng Gongfu turned into a silver man and stood there motionless, but bright red, sticky blood kept flowing from his eyes, nose, mouth, ears and other orifices.

He looked at Zheng Jun and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.

Zheng Jun only took a glance and knew that this person's true energy had been exhausted. He sneered, took a step forward, and slashed with his sword.

The long sword was unsheathed, and the cold light induced vomiting.

With one slash of the knife, Zheng Jun could no longer stop him and Feng Gongfu's head fell to the ground!
[Defeat the magic power, and destroy the 'Three-generation Ming Wang'! The repayment progress of 'Yiri Liuguang' is +424, and the current repayment progress is: 2828/3000. ]

Small gold-plated characters appeared before his eyes. Zheng Jun shook the blood beads on the blade and put the knife back into the sheath.

At this moment, Chen Jingzhong and Wang Tang also rushed over and were stunned when they saw Feng Gongfu's head rolling on the ground.

Chen Jingzhong was shocked by the alternating flashes of gold and silver that he could see from miles away, as if they were a battle of wits.

Wang Tang opened his mouth wide in shock and fear.

This Zheng Jun actually killed the county governor? !

Isn't this like a rebellion?

I took the initiative to open the city gate, so am I also a traitor? !
Zheng Jun raised his head, looked at the two men, and said coldly: "Feng Gongfu rebelled and wanted to surrender to Zhang Ze, but I killed him!"

"Therefore, I will temporarily take charge of the governor and lieutenant of Kangle County to control the city defense."

"Do you have any objections?"
