Chapter 478 Invitation to Credit
"Mr. Chen, there is a group of robbers outside the city. They are very rampant. They kidnapped a child and even shouted that they want to enter the city!"
After a while, the little leader guarding the city came to the Longxi County Magistrate's Mansion, knocked on the county magistrate's door, and reported the situation outside the city.
"Robbers? Are they still going to the city? Are they so arrogant now?"
When the county magistrate heard this, he was really surprised and quickly put his clothes on his body and opened the door.
"That's right! They all have big arms, round waists, and full of ferocious faces. When they come, we will open the city gate! But when they arrive, it was already the gate of Xu, so we blocked them outside the city!"
The little leader said as if he was seeking credit.
"Well! Well done! How many of them are there?"
The county magistrate asked while tidying up his clothes.
"Is there about two or three thousand?"
"Oh! There are quite a lot!"
When he heard this, the county magistrate suddenly became interested and grinned.
He has been a county magistrate here for almost ten years.
If these robbers were taken down at this time and reported to the court, they would probably be able to take another step forward, work in Xianyang and leave this place!
Thinking of this, hurry up and speed up the movements on your hands and put all your clothes in place!
"Let's go! Take people with you and you must catch these robbers. I will be rewarded by this time, haha..."
The county magistrate was very excited when he thought of his impending promotion.
"Okay!"
The reward was immediately given, so the little leader was naturally very happy and followed the county magistrate happily.
"Does these robbers carry swords or other weapons?"
Since we had to measure how many troops we brought to take down the robbers successfully, the county magistrate asked while walking.
"Uh... I didn't see the sword, but each of them carried a stick behind them!"
The little leader recalled carefully.
"stick……?"
The county magistrate felt something was wrong and gradually slowed down, "Why are the robbers carrying sticks without swords?"
"This... I don't know much about it!"
This question stopped the little leader and scratched his head in confusion.
Just now, he was just quarreling with those people, and he didn't think so much about it!
Looking back now, it's really strange!
"Maybe their swords are hidden in those stick-like things?"
"Nothing nonsense, tell me the specific situation!"
"yes……!"
The little leader responded and immediately told everything that happened outside the city.
"Sir, I dare to use my head to guarantee that those guys outside the city were definitely not sent by the imperial court, and the one who took the lead could never be the Marquis of Tongwu!"
After saying that, the little leader did not forget to raise his hand and swear, proving that he had never caused trouble.
"Well! According to time calculations, the people we sent out had just arrived in Xianyang at this time. It was really impossible to be so fast. And the prince arrived, and no one reported the message in advance!"
The county magistrate nodded in agreement.
"Yes, yes, yes, that's it. If that child is really the prince, someone will definitely report the message in advance and ask us to arrange it! Moreover, even if the court wants to send someone to rescue Loulan, it is impossible for them to send so many people! There is not even a decent weapon on it. How can we fight?"
The little leader quickly listed all the doubts about the matter and proved that he would never admit his mistake.
"By the way! Didn't you just say that the child gave you an ancestral object and asked you to hand it over to me? Where is the thing?"
"Oh! Look at my memory, I almost forgot...!"
The little leader slapped his forehead suddenly, made a sudden realization, took out the exquisite little tip from his arms and handed it to the county magistrate, "Sir, look, don't talk about the things inside, just looking at this tip, you know that it must be only available to wealthy families!"
The county magistrate didn't bother to pay attention to him, so he opened the treasure bag and took out the things inside.
It was a pure gold token with words engraved on it, which made his legs weak and he almost fell to the ground!
"You...you just had an argument with someone outside the city?"
"Well! That's right! Those guys are rude and are so arrogant as bandits. Although the last general is just a small city guard, he also represents the image of our Daqin. His aura must not lose...!"
"Shut up! I ask you, are you calling the man who calls himself Tongwuhou a soft-legged shrimp?"
The little leader wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by the county magistrate's harsh shout.
“Yes…yes!”
The little boss is unknown.
Wasn't you doing well just now? Why did you suddenly get angry?
These officials have a very unstable temper!
"Come!"
After receiving the affirmative reply, the county magistrate called out in anger.
"Will the county magistrate arrest them and make meritorious service?"
The little leader's eyes lit up.
"Make meritorious service? I'll make you a big-headed ghost! This county magistrate was killed by you...!"
"Hurry up and tie this kid up and go out of the city with me to apologize to the prince and Tongwuhou!"
"Oh! It's great now. Not to mention the promotion, it's all right to say whether I can still maintain my position as a county magistrate!"
After ordering, the county magistrate hurriedly walked out of the city.
"Oh? Lord Chen, what's going on? Why do you want to tie me up? What mistake did I make..."
The guards in the county magistrate's mansion were very quick and tied up the small leader in a few seconds.
The little leader was stunned and struggled while shouting at the back of the county magistrate!
Didn’t you just say you wanted to reward them? Why did this change?
But no matter how he shouted, the county magistrate was indifferent and led a few guards to trot out of the city!
...
"Hmph! Just wait and see, you will see something good later!"
The sky was getting darker, and torches were lit on the city walls. The guards guarding outside the city were still shouting at the Flying Eagle Team.
As soon as he finished speaking, the heavy city gate was slowly opened, and the guards in the city rushed out first and stood on both sides.
"Haha! How about it? Our people are here, see where you robbers will run?"
When he saw his own people, several soldiers guarding the city immediately smiled and felt contented.
Immediately afterwards, an old man in his fifties ran towards them staggeringly, staggering!
"Haha! Our county magistrates are all here, you can wait to go to prison...!"
After the soldiers guarding the city said that, they ran over to support the old man with a flattering face, "Mr. Chen, please wait! Don't worry, there are archers on our city wall, and these robbers dare not act rashly!"
"Bang..."
Although the old man was so tired, the strength in his hands was still quite good.
He slapped the city guards in the head, and he screamed in pain!
"Ouch!"
"Mr. Chen, you...what are you doing?"
A sudden slap caught the defenders off guard.
But the old man's hand that was supporting the old man was not willing to let go, so he could only flatten his mouth aggrievedly!
"What are you doing? I'm going to beat you up!"
Chapter completed!
