Peach and plum spring breeze and a glass of wine

It's getting late.

In the embroidered clothing guard stronghold in Luogu Lane, Yang Ge changed into his embroidered clothing, picked up his saber, and walked out of the room slowly.

Fang Ke stepped forward and presented the black iron half-face mask to Yang Ge with both hands.

Yang Ge took the mask and put it on his face, covering his eyes and cheeks.

What time is it?

he asked.

Fang Ke: Return to the main flag, the third quarter of the unitary hour has passed.

One hour is divided into two hours, divided into eight quarters, and a quarter of an hour is fifteen minutes.

The third quarter of Unitary Hour has passed, which is almost six o'clock.

Yang Ge counted the time, nodded and said: Master Qianhu should be about to take action.

Fang Ke whispered with a worried look on his face: General Qi, are we really not going to support such a big operation?

Yang Ge understood the hidden meaning of his words, but still shook his head: The situation in the city is unclear, we should not act rashly, we are a hidden stake in Luting County, as long as Luting County is stabilized, Master Qianhu's actions will go smoothly, we have merit, Master Qianhu We are not responsible for the bad actions.”

On the contrary, once there is a problem in the city, no matter whether we participate in the war or not, no matter whether Master Qianhu and their actions go smoothly or not, we will not be able to escape the blame!

After a pause, he continued: Furthermore, the letter sent to me by Mr. Qianhu only contained news of the Tatar masters crossing the border, and there was no order to mobilize our troops to go out of the city for support. We must fully trust Mr. Qianhu!

It was when he said this that he suddenly realized that Shen Fa never seemed to have given him any mandatory orders.

Whether he was previously tricked into participating in the Xiuyiwei's siege of the Xie family's merchant ship, or whether he was later morally kidnapped to serve as the chief banner of the Xiuyiwei...

Obviously he only needs a warrant, but he has no right to choose at all.

But Shen Fa never deprived him of the right to say no.

Including the ambush of the Tatar masters this time, judging from the information handed over by Shen Fa, it was clear that he wanted him to take his people out of the city to join the battle.

But he still left the choice in his hands...

Shen Fa had said that he wanted to make him a friend.

In the past, Yang Ge didn't believe it. He always felt that the guy was in the CPU himself.

But at this moment, he was somewhat convinced.

He never underestimated himself.

But at this moment, I also feel that I have no virtue and no ability...

He was not in awe of Shen Fa's official position.

He only has self-awareness and knows that whether he is in another time and space or in the Great Wei Dynasty, he is just a commoner, and his ultimate life ideal is always: wealth and freedom, a wife and children who are on the hot bed.

As for Shen Fa, no matter how rigid and outdated his thoughts and cognitions were, he was indeed running and fighting for the country of Wei and the people of Wei.

Great men never become less great because of the limitations of their times.

Mediocre people will never become mediocre because of the dividends of the times.

…

Fang Ke didn't know what Yang Ge was thinking. After hearing his words, he hurriedly explained: This is natural. Mr. Qianhu has always been thorough and meticulous in his actions. Since he has decided to close the net, he must have already closed the net. A Tatar master hasn't changed his underwear for several days and it's clear to me... Bah, my subordinate means that if we don't go, I'm afraid the other brothers in the guard will have objections to us!

Yang Ge patted his shoulder gently and said warmly: We just have to do our job well and don't have to worry about what other people think of us. People have two skins and you can't care about it even if you want to!

Fang Ke nodded in agreement.

Yang Ge then asked about the layout of various places in the city, and was thinking about whether to go to the west gate. Suddenly a strong man came to report: General Banner, something happened in the county government. There are strong men massacred in the county government...

Yang Ge suddenly frowned: Where did the news leak out?

The warrior who came to report gritted his teeth and clasped his hands and said: It should be the brothers who were following, asking the people from the county government to find out...

The brothers who were ordered to keep watch at the four city gates immediately took control of the city gates. No one is allowed to open the gates until dawn.

Yang Ge held the knife on his waist and strode out: The rest of you, wait, hurry to the county government office!

yes!

…

By the time Yang Ge arrived at the county government office, a large number of strong men had organized two to three hundred county soldiers, holding torches and setting up strong bows and crossbows, to surround the county government office.

Yang Ge felt a little relieved when he saw this. He stepped forward to show his badge and asked: Who is in charge here? Come and answer the question!

A small flag officer stepped forward in response, clasped his fists and said, My subordinate Gu Tong, pay your respects to the general flag!

Yang Ge turned around and looked at the open gate of the county government office and asked, What's going on?

A small flag officer replied: Two quarters ago, there were screams in the county government office. My subordinates went in and took a look. They saw more than a dozen masked strongmen, holding sharp knives, massacring the county government's relatives...

Fang Ke took a step forward and whispered in Yang Ge's ear: General Qi, they are killing people and silencing them!

Yang Ge also thought about it and said to himself, What a decisive reaction and such a cruel heart.

Where's the strongman?

Gu Tong: Back to the main banner, a quarter of an hour ago, these strong men rushed out once. The subordinates did not do well, and three of them escaped. The rest were blocked by the subordinates and went back. They should still be in the county government.

You did a great job.

Yang Ge patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: It was my negligence.

Gu Tong said quickly: I don't dare!

Yang Ge shook his head, took off the saber from his waist and held it in his hand: You continue to command the county soldiers to surround this place. Don't let anyone escape... Fang Ke!

Fang Ke responded loudly: My subordinates are here!

Yang Ge waved his hand: Call thirty brothers and follow me in!

Fang Ke: Yes!

Shao Qing, thirty muscular guards in embroidered clothes, covered by several large skin shields half a man's height, poured into the county government office holding torches in one hand and shining ox-tail knives in the other.

Yang Ge held his saber tightly and walked behind a large leather shield. Through the jumping firelight, he saw that the county government office was littered with corpses. There were county officials in green clothes, police officers in black clothes, and people wearing clothes. Maids and servants in colorful and blue robes, women and children wearing pearls and gold locks...

The pools of bright red blood reflected the brilliance of ink under the firelight, and the shoes were as sticky and slippery as stepping on moss.

Yang Ge gritted his teeth, forcing himself not to look at the gloomy faces, and shouted loudly: People inside, listen, I am the chief officer of Xiuyiwei Road Pavilion. You guys have been surrounded by us and have no way to escape. Now, put down your weapons quickly and surrender, that’s your only way to survive!”

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a black shadow like a calf rushing toward him from the corner of his eye. Before he could think about it, he subconsciously pulled out the cow-tail knife and slashed it with his backhand.

clang!

There was only a heart-wrenching sharp clash of gold and iron, and a bright broken knife flew out. The black shadow hit Yang Ge's feet heavily, and a round thing popped out.

Yang Ge glanced down, and immediately felt like he was looking away, his heart churning.

Brothers, watch out for corpses!

Brothers, kill!

Fang Ke's loud shout and the unfamiliar loud shout sounded at the same time.

The next second, several figures jumped down from the eaves around the patio and rushed towards Yang Ge from all directions.
