In the military camp, the bonfire burned quietly.

Feeling a hint of sleepiness welling up, Nie Dong immediately understood that Haishi had arrived.

There were no clocks in ancient times, especially at night in the countryside. Calculating time relied more on astrology and feeling.

The biological clock of the ancients was fixed, and they focused on working at sunrise and resting at sunset.

Especially for soldiers like Nie Dong, there are strict rules on when to get up and when to go to bed.

Over time, a biological clock has been developed, and when the time comes, you will feel sleepy.

Nie Dong rubbed his face, stood up and ordered: "The time has come, organize the army!"

Wow!

The soldiers stood up one after another.

Move your hands and feet, check the weapons on your body, and put out the bonfire at the same time.

"Set off!"

When the army was reorganized, Nie Dong waved his hand, and a thousand Qingzhou soldiers filed out in neat steps.

After marching for more than half an hour, when they saw that they were about to reach the county town, Liu Qi reminded: "Shout the slogans!"

After that, he took the lead in shouting.

"Zhang Xian comes down to earth and all the people will stand up!"

The soldiers shouted together.

Not to mention, in this dark environment, others might really think that Dare Chi's army is coming to kill him.

"Kill the dog officer and welcome Zhang Xian!"

Thousands of Qingzhou troops shouted slogans and walked towards the county seat.

When he was less than a hundred meters away from the county seat, Nie Dong's expression changed and he suddenly stopped.

Through the dim starlight, I could see thousands of people standing densely outside the east gate.

Liu Qi was also stunned, feeling confused and confused.

this……

Among the matters explained by the county magistrate, there was no mention of anyone responding!

Could it be an ambush?

Unfortunately, it was too dark and no one was holding a torch, so I could only see blurry outlines and couldn't tell the identity of each other.

They were confused, and Shi Jian and others were even more confused.

The two groups looked at each other, and for a moment they were in a stalemate, with no one daring to make a move.

Nie Dong's mind raced. He felt that this group of people was not an ambush of officers and soldiers.

If it were officers and soldiers, I'm afraid they should take action as soon as possible.

Judging from the reactions of this group of people, they were the same as mine, and I never expected to bump into myself.

Thinking of this, he took a step forward and shouted loudly: "Who are you waiting for?"

"Who are you waiting for?"

Shi Jian asked instead without answering.

To be honest, if the other party hadn't shouted the slogan "Dare to Chijun", he would have rubbed oil on his feet and fled away by now.

Things are really weird tonight.

Hearing this, Liu Qi on the side rolled his eyes, and he had some calculations in his mind, and replied: "I am the right protector of the Feipeng God under the throne of Immortal Duke, and I have been ordered to come to attack Yidu County at night. Who are you?"

Shi Jian sneered: "What the hell, Hou Tian died a month ago when he attacked Qiancheng County. Could it be that Hou Tian entrusted you with a dream and gave you the order?"

Liu Qi didn't panic at all and pretended to be furious: "Those soldiers fled without fighting and actually made up rumors?"

Um?

Shi Jian was shocked and doubtful, and frowned: "In that case, why didn't Hou Tian return to Shouguang to recover?"

Liu Qi was so clever that he made up a semblance of an excuse in a blink of an eye: "The general Shen failed in his attack on Qiancheng County. He felt that he was too shameless to face the Immortal, so he led me and other remnants to plunder the surrounding areas. He had just captured the enemy a few days ago.

Come to Linzi County!"

"You and I captured Linzi County?"

Shi Jian was startled again and felt that his brain was a little weak.

Liu Qi replied: "That's right, the divine envoy made a plan to let me and others pretend to be a caravan, sneak into Linzi County, take the opportunity to kill the soldiers guarding the city, and seize the county seat."

"this……"

Shi Jian and Shi Wenhui had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but they couldn't put their finger on it.

Liu Qi didn't give him time to think carefully, and asked: "You are so familiar with the divine generals, do you also dare to attack the army?"

"I am Shi Jian, the divine ape general under the throne of Immortal Lord. Why don't you wait to see me?" Shi Jian said in a loud voice.

You really dare to blazing army!

Nie Dong and others were shocked and looked a little strange.

Unexpectedly, I met the real owner.

But how could Dare Chijun appear here, and the timing was so clever? Could it be possible that he also got the news?

At this moment, Liu Qi was addicted to the game and turned his back on the guest: "How to prove it?"

"..."

Shi Jian was silent for a while, not knowing how to prove it.

At this moment, Shi Wenhui, who had been watching with cold eyes, said: "It is actually General Feipeng who is protecting the Dharma. I am a close friend of your army king Canjun. I wonder how he is doing now?"

Wang joins the army?

Shi Jian looked confused. When did the dare-chi army have such a figure?

But soon, he realized that Shi Wenhui was deceiving the other party.

Liu Qi sneered in his heart, knowing that the other party was deceiving him, so he turned around and said: "Fart, there is no such thing as Wang Shenjun in our army. Who are you pretending to be a ghost?"

Fortunately, I asked in detail today, otherwise the secret might be revealed by now.

Shi Wenhui was stunned and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

Could it be that he is really from Hou Tian?

In this case, it does explain why there was an ambush in the city.

Nie Dong suppressed his laughter and said sternly: "Explain your identity quickly!"

Shi Jian said angrily: "Grandpa said, I am Shi Jian, the divine ape general under the throne of Immortal Lord!"

Liu Qi asked: "In that case, do you know what General Feipeng likes most?"

After thinking for a moment, Shi Jian replied: "This... is naturally a money woman."

"Huh?"

Liu Qi pretended to be surprised and said: "Is he really the divine ape general?"

"nature!"

Shi Jian snorted coldly.

At this moment, he was eighty-nine percent convinced.

I just felt that the ambush in the city was aimed at Hou Tian and his group of subordinates.

After all, his night attack on Yidu County was an impromptu plan. His subordinates were in front of him all day long, and there was no chance to inform him.

In this way, everything makes sense.

Nie Dong asked calmly: "Why is the Divine Ape General here?"

"I was ordered to make a surprise attack on the Linqu Horse Prison to obtain war horses for the Immortal Lord."

At this moment, Shi Jian regarded them as his own and made no secret of anything.

Liu Qi thought to himself that there are still capable people in the dare Chi army.

A force of several thousand men was sent out, hiding day and night, to make a surprise attack on the horse prison.

If he hadn't met himself and others, he might have been succeeded by them.

At this time, Shi Jian was reminded: "There is an ambush in the city. If your plan of a night attack is discovered, leave quickly!"

Naturally, there could be no ambush in the city, and Liu Qi and Nie Dong knew this very well.

Unless the county magistrate wants to harm them.

The two of them estimated that it was because the siege went so smoothly that Shi Jian felt there was a trick.
