Governor's Yamen.

One of Cao Guozhang's subordinates ran in with a roll.

His voice trembled and he shouted heartbreakingly, "Report, report to your lordship!" The south gate of the outer city has been broken through by Wu Yutian's department, and now they are heading towards the inner city!"

"Bang!" Zhou Yanru's hand shook and knocked over the teacup.

Tea trickled down the coffee table and dripped on his official boots.

Zhou Yanru's face was like ashes, and he trembled.

And Cao Guozhang was also shocked, and his face turned pale.

"So fast?!" he muttered, then slumped into his chair in despair.

He couldn't imagine that Cao Guozhang couldn't even hold on for a quarter of an hour.

Zhou Huai'an rushed in.

He was taken down from the inner walls.

"Zhou Xiang, Governor Cao, you should hurry up! It's too late!"

Zhou Yanru hurriedly got up and said, "Yes, yes, let's hurry up, let's go quickly! The inner city can't be defended, and it can't be defended!"

With that, he scurried out, apparently going back to his house to pack his things.

Don't look at his hair is gray, his legs and feet are not slow at all.

There are a lot of silver tickets in the house!

As long as he has these, he will be able to live the life of a rich man for the rest of his life - provided that he can live, of course.

Cao Guozhang was still in the house, and he reluctantly glanced at this exquisite mansion.

What a good pear blossom wood Taishi chair, more than 300 years of material. What beautiful antique porcelain, it is all from the Ru kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty!

How much money, how much energy, and even how many means did I spend to get these treasures, it's a pity!

Gone for a while!

"Zhou Huai'an, is it true that the inner city can't be defended?" he said strugglingly, "The Tsing Yi Army will come soon, and the Demon Sect has also said that it will send a master to help us." This...... Qin Shuhuai, it's really fast!"

He has always been decisive and resolute, but now, he has hesitated.

Not only did he hesitate, but even for a moment, he gave up his intention to run.

Now that Donglin's reputation is notorious all over the world, and he is also convicted of committing rebellion, who will take him in?

Even if you are lucky enough to run out, you can only live incognito and live the rest of your life tremblingly?

What's the point of a day like this?

He was the governor of Sichuan, and the governor of Sichuan, Guizhou, and Guangzhou, what a scenery and how rich he was. In the future, let him be a rural villager who doesn't even dare to reveal his real name and surname, how can he be willing?

It's better to die with the baby in this room!

Zhou Huai'an hurriedly said, "Governor Cao, the inner city will definitely not be able to hold it! The soldiers and horses in the inner city are all Wu Yutian's descendants, and we can control their generals, generals, and thousands of generals, in the final analysis, we can only ensure that they do not rebel when they can't see Wu Yutian! Now that Wu Yutian has broken through the outer city, and the troops will soon be under the inner city, even if those soldiers do not resist at that time, they will never resist hard! These others are not clear, are you still not clear?"

Cao Guozhang let out a long sigh.

"Let's go, let's go!"

Cao Guozhang returned to the back room and hastily packed some things, mainly some silver tickets.

The lady and the aunts of the back house, as well as some of the children, all cried.

Cao Guozhang just arranged a few carriages for them, and then gave them some silver tickets, and told them whether they could go out or not they could be together after going out, it depended on how God arranged it.

Soon, the carriages came.

Zhou Yanru and Cao Guozhang came up with the first two horses respectively and went straight to the east gate. And Cao Guozhang's family followed.

The reason why they didn't take the secret passage was because they were afraid that Qin Shuhuai would have already set up defenses along the way and at the exit of the secret passage, and this was indeed the case - how could Qin Shuhuai not make arrangements when he knew that there was a secret passage?

At the west gate of the inner city, Wu Yutian led the army directly to the city.

Seeing that the city gate was still closed, Wu Yutian couldn't help but be furious, and clapped his horse and shouted, "You group of eight lambs, don't you open the door when you see Lao Tzu?"

The soldiers were all ready to move, but those thousand generals and generals were all stunned, and none of them dared to give orders.

Because each of them has at least two Dark Cloud Sect masters around them. These good hands hold daggers against their waists and abdomen.

The good hands of the Dark Cloud Sect did not leave at this time, just to buy time for Zhou Yanru and Cao Guozhang to escape.

Although they knew that the inner city wall would inevitably not be able to be saved, they still monitored the generals and Qian Zong who defended the inner city in the spirit of delaying it for a while.

Tian Bonian took a closer look at the city, and immediately said to Wu Yutian, "I'm afraid that the generals have been kidnapped." The general gave the order to attack the city, and the brethren at the head of the city would not resist. ”

Wu Yutian heard this, and shouted without hesitation, "Siege!"

But at this time, I only heard the head of the city suddenly shouting, "Brothers, kill Donglin against the party!"

The shouter was not Wu Yutian's subordinates, but Zhao Rui, the commander of the Chengdu Guard, who had been sent by Cao Guozhang to temporarily command the 30,000 horses.

Zhao Rui's move can be said to be worthy of his name.

Absolutely wise.

This kid was originally at the south gate, but when he heard that the outer city was about to be breached, he hurried to the west gate with some personal guards.

Why?

Show your loyalty!

Cao Guozhang asked him to command these 30,000 soldiers and horses, and he was not stupid, did he really think that these soldiers would listen to him?

In this case, why don't you hurry up and show Grandpa Guo that he is actually in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and in order to cooperate with Grandpa Guo to quell the rebellion, he pretended to help him and promised Cao Guozhang to command these 30,000 soldiers?

Didn't the grandfather of that country come from Simon to kill him? Then you have to run to Simon and yell at him a few times!

He roared, and it worked.

Now there is no need for those generals and general Qianzong to give orders, the soldiers raised their blades one after another and slashed at those good hands of the Dark Cloud Sect!

It's like a pool of stagnant water, as long as you throw a pebble into it, it will ripple everywhere immediately.

If there is one who resists, there is a second. There is a second, and there are the twentieth and two hundredth!

The defenders of the city are boiling!

"Kill! Kill Donglin's dog!"

"Welcome General Wu into the city!"

As soon as the soldiers resisted, the good hands of the Dark Cloud Sect immediately withdrew.

It's not negotiable!

Could it be that they only have nearly 100 people and want to fight with thousands of people?

And the hijacked generals and thousands of generals were basically unharmed. First, there is no point in killing them, why do you have to kill them if the good hands of the Dark Cloud Sect don't have time to run? Second, the kung fu of these good hands is not so scary, a few soldiers cut them together, can't they dodge?

The soldiers were bloodless, and the door was quickly opened.

Zhao Rui greeted Wu Yutian at the door, "General Wu! General Wu is looking forward to you!"

Wu Yutian glanced at him disdainfully, and then snorted coldly.

This kid pretended to be crazy and stupid and wanted to get a credit, could he Wu Yutian still know?

Zhao Rui didn't mind Wu Yutian's cold eyes, and asked again, "General Wu, dare to ask where Grandpa Guo is?"

Wu Yutian said coldly, "Ask what Grandpa Guo is doing, is it possible that he still wants to report to you? Why don't you quickly bring someone to arrest Donglin's rebels?"

Zhao Rui hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes, go here, go here!"

At this time, the east gate of the inner city.

A large group of soldiers surrounded Cao Guozhang and Zhou Yanru's carriage.

It turned out that several generals at the east gate saw a team of carriages galloping over, and they immediately speculated that it was Zhou Yanru and Cao Guozhang who were about to run away.

They immediately turned red-eyed.

If these two people were allowed to run away from the east gate, what would it be?

They are the generals guarding the east gate, and Wu Yutian will not settle accounts with them at that time?

Do you dare to say that you can't give the order to block it because you have been hijacked?

Then you'll die faster!

As a general, you should have taken the lead and bravely killed the enemy, but if you are kidnapped, you will not dare to move? If you can say this, it means that you died unjustly at all!

Both left and right are dead, of course they have to fight.

So these people quietly made eye contact with the soldiers not far away, and these soldiers immediately understood.

After one of the generals yelled, the soldiers moved.

Soon, all the soldiers stationed at the east gate turned against the water.

These soldiers also acted quickly, some of them were good at dealing with the Dark Cloud Sect, and some of them immediately rushed up to surround Cao Guozhang and Zhou Yanru's carriage.

There were only fifty or sixty good men of the Dark Cloud Sect at the East Gate, and there were as many as 5,000 people from Wu Yutian's old department at the East Gate.

However, these people were indeed brave, and none of them escaped, but still formed a circle, swearing to defend the Donglin party leader.

On the side of the defenders of the East Gate, except for one general who was killed by bad luck and one who was seriously injured, the other generals were basically unharmed!

Seeing that the carriage was surrounded by dense soldiers, Cao Guozhang still did not give up, lifted the curtain of the carriage car, and scolded loudly, "Presumptuous, who would dare to stop Benfu here?"

But I heard a general laugh and said, "Governor Cao, it's so cold, what are you going to do outside at night?" How good it is to stay at home, maybe Grandpa Guo will come to you for tea in a while." ”

After all, they didn't do it either.

Because they weren't sure whether Grandpa Guo was going to die or live. Relatively speaking, it is more important to give the two big living people to the grandfather of the country, right?

So they besieged but did not attack, planning to wait for the grandfather of the country to come before making a decision.

In the other carriage, Zhou Yanru trembled like chaff, and his face was no longer human.

He shouted in despair, "Zhou Huai'an, Zhou Huai'an, help me, save me!"

The heart-rending cry made the people of the Dark Cloud Sect frown.

The dignified Donglin, with this kind of person as the leader, is not unjust to lose to that Qin Shuhuai.

At this time, there were about a hundred people from the Dark Cloud Sect who protected Zhou Yanru and Cao Guozhang, including those who had just retreated from the West Gate.

Zhou Huai'an whispered a few words to the person next to him.

The man nodded solemnly.

Before long, he waved his sword and shouted at the people of the Dark Cloud Sect, "Kill!"

Without hesitation, the masters of the Dark Cloud Sect raised their blades one after another and slaughtered their opponents like a vast ocean!

These soldiers obviously did not expect these people to be so brave, and they were a little flustered at first.

Zhou Huai'an took the opportunity to slap the top of the carriage with one palm, and then pulled Zhou Yanru up and stepped away!

At the same time, the other two masters of the Dark Cloud Sect also took Cao Guozhang to the side.
