The sudden light and noise caught Zhang He a little off guard, but he immediately calmed down and commanded his subordinates to quickly reach out of the city wall and stab at the incoming enemy with their halberds. And because of the surprise of the square dance aunts, the tigers under the car actually did not climb very high, except for a few unlucky people who were accidentally swept by the tip of the halberd, but there were no casualties, but He Qi let go too quickly and broke his thigh, and was first aided by the captain.

Not to mention that Zhang He's side dispersed the square dance aunt and arranged for his subordinates to retreat into the darkness under the steps, it was only said that Qiu Ming and others came to the gate of Xiaoyuan, but they saw the black lights under the city, which formed a sharp contrast with the people in the distance shouting horses and neighing and the lights were bright. Qiu Ming said: "It's strange, hasn't the Marquis of Hefei turned here yet?" Or did they go to Jinmen? ”

Cheng Yu said with a smile: "The art of war is virtual and real, they came from Kaiyang Gate, they must have arrived here first, and seeing that Xiaoyuan Gate is so empty, how could they not stay and explore?" It is counterintuitive to be so quiet as it is now, and I dare say they must have been hiding in the dark and watching, and if they felt an opportunity, they would seek to break through from here. ”

Qiu Ming was silent for a while before he said, "Then what should we do now?" Just waiting for them to watch? ”

Frustrated: "People are tigers, tigers are also people, from the sand table of the county, there are only a few places outside the gate of the small garden that can hide and watch. Hefei Hou in order to cover people's eyes and ears to achieve miraculous results, will not bring too many guards around, we can quietly open the city out, to these locations to sneak attack Hefei Hou, if you can capture the thief and capture the king, then Luoyang's danger is solved. ”

Cheng Yu and Chen Gong's eyes lit up, and they had all studied the sand table made by Qiuming, but their attention was on the journey from Luoshui to Luoyang City, and they basically didn't pay much attention to the situation outside Xiaoyuan's gate. Looking at Tian Feng and Fu Zhi now, they are obviously confident, why don't they be surprised and happy?

According to the arrangement of Fu Zhi, the group went down to the city gate and prepared to open the door to go out and attack. At this time, a broken cry came from the shadow of the doorway: "Who dares to open the city gate without permission?" Could it be that he is secretly conspiring with the enemy army and preparing to sacrifice the city? With this shout, more than a dozen big men came out of the darkness, although they couldn't see their faces clearly for the time being, but they could see at a glance that they were definitely not soldiers defending the city.

Wei Yan was in a hurry to go out of the city to make contributions, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, so he directly stepped forward and knocked the two big men in front into a rolling gourd, and was about to push it all the way, when he suddenly felt lightheaded, and was actually lifted up.

Qiu Ming was taken aback, although Wei Yan was not a first-class master now, but no matter how he said that his force must be more than eighty-five, how could he be captured so easily? Could it be that the man made a move? He was still in doubt, the person who made the shot had already walked over with Wei Yan in one hand, who was it not Li Jin?

Although there seemed to be a lot more people on Qiuming's side, Li Jin was not afraid at all, he casually threw Wei Yan to the side of the road and said: "I am entrusted by the people of Luoyang to guard Xiaoyuanmen and Jinmen here, if you have no evil intentions, please leave early, otherwise don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless." ”

Where has Dian Wei been so threatened in his life? Although he knew that he was not Li Jin's opponent, he still rolled his eyes and wanted to go up and match him. Qiu Ming hurriedly stopped Dian Wei and said to Li Jin: "I was ordered by the Son of Heaven to defend Luoyang, but I didn't hear that your defense was arranged. ”

Li Jin also recognized Qiu Ming at this time, although he stood in a hostile position with Qiu Ming several times, but it seemed that he could not once get a bargain from this obscene guy, especially in the past few days in Panhuan, Luoyang, he could hear some stories about Qiu Ming every day, and he had a full understanding of the development of Qiu Ming's power and the degree of favor of the Son of Heaven.

Although Li Jin was born in a reckless background, he has great ambitions and has always looked forward to making meritorious contributions and making an immortal reputation. When he came out of the house this time, his first thought was to go to Wei Ning, that is, he wanted to use the reputation of the Wei family to embark on the road to Qingyun, but he didn't expect Wei Ning to vomit blood again by Qiu Ming, so he could only go home to lie down and recuperate.

As soon as Wei Ning left, Li Jin had no reason to stay in the Wei Mansion anymore, but he was full of pride when he came, and naturally he didn't want to leave Luoyang in disgrace, and Luoyang is the root of the imperial city, so there are naturally many more opportunities than other places, and he also wants to try his luck here, what if he can meet a noble person to climb the high branches?

But this period of Luoyang soldiers are in chaos, first the Tiger Prison Pass was attacked, and then the enemy also came to the south, the people in the city were panicked, and those wealthy families were thinking about their own way out, who could care about recruiting him. Li Jin didn't know how to run it from a young age, and it didn't take long to spend all the money he brought out of his home, and he was kicked out of the inn.

Fortunately, there is no endless road, because Li Jin's talent is outstanding, and he has knocked over a few splashes, some rich street elders have taken a fancy to his skills and invited him to join the newly established escort team, and the pay seems to be quite good. Li Jin was desperate, where could he still pick and choose, so he naturally agreed.

This escort was originally set up by many people in the city who had families and businesses but had no power to protect themselves, first of all, of course, to help maintain order in the city and prevent riots, and secondly, if the city was broken, it would also ensure the safety of the lives and property of these financiers, which was somewhat similar to the nature of the security or joint defense team in later generations. Since Li Jin joined, the strength of the escort team has increased greatly, and several groups of suspicious people who have secretly communicated with outside the city have been captured, which can be regarded as making a lot of contributions to the Battle of Luoyang.

During the interrogation of these suspicious persons, although the escort team did not ask about the hiding place of the mastermind in the city, they roughly judged that they were preparing to break into the city with Xiaoyuan Gate and Jinmen as a breakthrough. Those rich streets are always Luoyang Tong, naturally they also know that these two small city gates are the weakness of Luoyang City, although they are anxious, but they can not reach the heavens, can only ask the escort team to guard all night, if there is a combination of inside and outside, immediately kill, if there is a foreign enemy attacking the city, immediately timely warning.

After listening to Li Jin's narration, Qiu Ming was a little speechless, good guy, such a peerless master with superior force and Lu Bu, a super Saiyan-like existence, actually became a security guard? Is this a moral degradation or a distortion of human nature?

Seeing Qiu Ming frowning, these guards were a little frightened, they were originally a non-governmental organization, and it must be a hundred times more courage to catch the thief, but the official characters could not be provoked. What's more, Qiuming is the favored minister of the Son of Heaven, and in the past two days, water and fire have killed and injured tens of thousands of enemy troops outside the city, even if the people here have not seen it with their own eyes, they have heard it with their own ears, if he is unhappy to be caught and beheaded, even his own grandmother and mother Lao Tzu will not dare to go to the street to cry out for injustice. Except for Li Jin, the guards all consciously retreated, hoping that Tyumen would not notice him.

Qiu Ming thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "This official is about to go out of the city to attack the enemy army, are you willing to go with me to kill the enemy?" ”
