"Brother-in-law, then, that's cavalry?"

The person who nodded his head was none other than Shi Datuo, the commander of the guard, and when he saw the cavalry suddenly coming like a raging snowstorm, a deep fear surged in his heart. The source of this fear came from the Mongol Tatar battle. As a Wenli, although he was on an errand at the forefront of the border town, he had never really been on the battlefield, and whether it was a Manchu Tartar or a Mongolian Tartar, he had never used a real knife or a real gun.

For the rest of the year after narrowly escaping the battle to this day, I am often awakened by nightmares in the middle of the night. Therefore, his first reaction when he saw the cavalry was that the Mongol Tatars were coming again.

Scarface is Gu Tong, who has warned Shi Datuo more than once that he is not allowed to call him brother-in-law, and must be called Lord Qianhu with all his subordinates, but this guy is like his name, and he can't change it after explaining it hundreds of times, and now he blurted out again when he was nervous.

Immediately after that, Stato's words made him even more annoyed.

"Sister, brother-in-law, let's run away, I'm afraid it's too late......"

Gu Tongqi slapped Shi Datuo on the head, he was also the most complete of the town's guards, how could he see the Tartars coming and flee? When the time comes, where will his face go? What qualifications do you have to compete for the command of the town guard?

"You want to get out, get out of Lao Tzu now!"

Shi Datuo saw that Gu Tong was really angry, and he smacked his lips and didn't continue to make noise, although he was afraid, he didn't dare to run away first, after all, Gu Tong was still standing here steadily.

In fact, Gu Tong also secretly shouted bad luck again and again, if it weren't for the cavalry that came out halfway, he asked himself if it would be a problem to enter the Acropolis with the minimum casualties before dark. In Gu Tong's plan, he was originally unwilling to openly break with Qian Tai, the governor of the Wei Command Envoy Division. But he never expected that this guy would dare to take the lead in attacking and accusing him of plotting to seize the public property of the Weisi Yamen, forcibly robbing the military households, and ordering him to bind himself to accept the crime within a time limit!

How can Gu Tong endure this? Qian Tai's move is equivalent to forcing Gu Tong into a corner, if he doesn't fight back, he has to make people think that he is weak, if he loses the momentum again, the other military households of the other thousand households that were originally subdued may have to make trouble, once there is a large-scale riot, how can he explain to the Dusi Yamen?

He said that he wanted to go into the city to give that Qian Tai a dismount, and in his plan, it would not take much effort to rush into the city, that is, to pull out the team and go through the motions and demonstrate. However, what he never imagined was that Qian Tai, who had always been a dirt bag, was also bold, and actually entangled hundreds of landless military households in the right thousand households to close the city gate and refuse his people to enter the city.

The reason why Gu Tong was hiding behind this matter was that the commander of the guard did not give the silver, and the military households themselves made trouble and rushed into the city. When the time comes, there is an excuse to ask, although he is a thousand households, but his subordinates can't open the pot and cause an accident, what can he do to stop it?

Therefore, at the beginning of his people's attack on the acropolis, Gu Tong was not ready for battle, until he found out that Qian Tai was really moving, he was already difficult to ride a tiger, and he had no choice but to control the army to attack the city.

Even if the city is attacked, it is not a matter, as long as the casualties are controlled, and after entering the city, the blind governor will be taught a lesson, and his prestige will be killed, even if this face is recovered, who else will dare to oppose him when the time comes?

However, there are Mongolian Tatars to join in the fun, which can make him have a headache, Li Daliang is the most powerful hundred households under him, although he packed up the internal opponents and let him command the team to fight against the Mongolian Tatars, Gu Tong did not have the slightest chance of winning or retreating.

However, this place is too far away from the Acropolis, and it is impossible to intervene in time, so I have to watch how Li Daliang responds. Suddenly, a scarlet battle flag jumped into Gu Tong's eyes, and immediately after, several scarlet battle flags were suddenly erected in the cavalry ranks.

Gu Tong gasped.

"It's the Ming Army!"

Looking further north, there seemed to be a large group of infantry rolling in the distance, which greatly surprised Gu Tong. Today, one day after another, unexpected things made him a little overwhelmed, and his mind appeared a short blank for a while.

It was Stato's voice that pulled it back to reality.

"Sister, brother-in-law, it's not a Tartar, it's the Ming Army!"

There was joy in this voice, and Gu Tong was irritable for no reason. And what about the Ming army, is it good for him? It is indeed not good for Gu Tong, but for Shi Datuo, it is definitely great news.

If it is a Mongolian Tatar attacking the city, his wife and children are in the city, once the city is broken, I am afraid that the chance of survival is one in ten thousand, and he just spent a dozen taels of silver to marry a daughter-in-law and it is gone, how can he not feel distressed? Now that I learned that it was the Ming army that came, the destruction of the city and the slaughter of the city would naturally not happen, and I was relieved, and my whole body was relieved.

"Brother-in-law, where did this group of Ming soldiers come from? Let's go to the reception, don't make a fuss and misunderstand your own people to fight! ”

Gu Tong was noncommittal, Shi Datuo's construction was quite pertinent, and he really couldn't make a misunderstanding, if the Ming army outside the city and the military households of his own thousand households fought, he would be a loser if he won or lost. This big war must be stopped.

"Shi Datuo, you hurry up and inform Li Daliang to retreat, don't fight."

"Okay!"

Shi Datuo got the order, turned over and got on his horse and was about to leave.

"Wait!"

"Brother-in-law still has orders?"

"If you can't go, you go to negotiate with the Ming army as the commander of the guard, and remember to prevent the two armies from going to war!"

Only then did Gu Tong remember that Shi Datuo was not only the younger brother of his concubine, but also one of the only two remaining members of the Wei Command Division, and his words still had some weight, which came in handy at the critical moment.

Shi Datuo also said that Gu Tong wanted to explain to him what was going on, as long as he didn't lead troops to fight, this kind of work of grinding with others was the most suitable for him, and the sky was dark to ensure that the general of the Ming army would be flickering. Just as he was about to beat his horse and leave, he patted his head as if remembering something.

"Brother-in-law, is it inconvenient to come forward, so you have to avoid it?"

Gu Tong looked at Shi Datuo, who seemed to have suddenly opened his mind, and laughed. This time, Shi Datuo was right, he really couldn't go to see the commander of the Ming army, and he would never mention this matter in the future. Thinking of this, he told Shi Datuo again:

"When I saw the commander of the Ming army, please remember that the military households of our Qianhu Institute are not willing to be harsh by the commander of the guard, and they came spontaneously!"

Shi Datuo smiled back and patted his head.

"Brother-in-law, do you really think that my brain is full of?"

Although Shi Datuo is as timid as a mouse, he is not a fool, he knows very well that his cheap brother-in-law Gu Tong can't even look down on him with half an eye, and many times in order to win his favor, he has to pretend to be stupid and stunned, and make people smile, reflecting his intelligence and wisdom with his stupidity!

Gu Tong suddenly realized that he had underestimated this Shi Datuo in the past?

"Boom-boom-"

There was a sudden sound of violent explosions in the direction of the Acropolis, and the ground under his feet seemed to be trembling, Gu Tong's feet could clearly feel this tremor, and he was horrified in his heart that only cannons were so shocking and powerful! Then I listened to the strange cry of the war horse, and the hooves were slashed!

"Oops......"

Shi Datuo was unsteady on the horse, and fell down, so frightened that he hurriedly rolled to the side, for fear that the horse's hooves would kick and become a fool!

"Boom-boom-"

Another loud bang! Shi Datuo was really scared this time, what do you mean? Did the Ming army really regard the soldiers of Zuo Qianhu as thieves besieging the Acropolis? If that's the case, go and negotiate with them yourself, in case you are treated as a ......

"Sister, brother-in-law help!"

Shi Datuo, who had fallen to the ground, suddenly held his right leg with both hands and howled like a pig.

"My legs, legs, seem to be broken!"

Gu Tong had just changed his opinion of him a little bit and disappeared in an instant, yes, this kind of greed for life and fear of death is the true face of Shi Datuo. Although Shi Datuo's performance was exaggerated and hardworking, how could he escape Gu Tong's eyes that read countless people. Eighty percent of his legs were not broken, and such a pretense was nothing more than the explosion just now that broke his courage, and he was unwilling to negotiate on his behalf!

Suddenly, I saw a flash of white light, and the sharp and shiny Yanling knife quickly drew an arc in mid-air, heading straight for Shi Datuo, who was startled by the sudden knife light, and subconsciously jumped up and retreated, and couldn't care about pretending to break his legs anymore.

Another flash of cold light!

Just listening to the sound of "swish", Gu Tong put the knife into the sheath! Scoldly reprimanded:

"Don't pretend, don't go yet!"

Seeing that the trick was recognized, Shi Datuo cried with a sad face.

"Brother-in-law, you can't bear to let me die......"

"Send what to die? The Ming army is not a Mongolian Tartar, and Ben Qianhu is still waiting for you to come back and drink! ”

Yesterday, Shi Datuo wanted to invite Gu Tong to drink, but Gu Tong refused, he knew that this guy had nothing to do, he was either a traitor or a thief, and he must have asked for himself. Now, by agreeing to drink with him, he was agreeing to his request in disguise. Shi Datuo's eyes lit up, afraid that he would regret it, so he confirmed it again.

"Brother-in-law counts when he talks?"

"When did this thousand households speak?"

Shi Datuo said with a smile: "Also, my brother-in-law is like a nail even if he spits, he can nail a board, and he can speak even more eloquently!" ”

Gu Tong saw that he was still grinding there, and said angrily: "No matter how noisy it is, this thousand households may regret it!" ”

Shi Datuo hurriedly stepped on the war horse, smiled at Gu Tong, and drove away!

Gu Tong looked at Shi Datuo's obscene back and thought to himself, what does this guy ask of himself, even dare to respond to the errand he thinks is fatal? I suddenly had a headache!

……

Qian Tai looked up to the sky and laughed, the cannon outside the city rumbled, it must be the general soldiers of the three guards who came, as far as he knew, there was no cannon that could fire in the entire town guards! He climbed up to the city gate tower with a rolling belt, and as far as he could see, sure enough, one after another, scarlet battle flags advanced with the rolling iron flow, hunting in the wind!

Chen Si, the chief banner, followed behind Qian Tai and muttered secretly, there are thousands of people in Gu Qianhu, and there are these 100 people outside, can it be done?

(I still owe Brother Ant a chapter to add more, and I'll make it up tomorrow!) ）
