The Lord of Pingjin City seems to be no different from the past.

There are no more soldiers patrolling than before. As before, there are a large area in the city lord's mansion, with no stalls and few pedestrians.

Pingjin City is not the largest area within the twenty cities of the Dongwang Mansion. It has been responsible for the military's combat preparations, armor and weapons, so most shops in the city are blacksmith shops. Generally, the Dongwang Mansion issues an order to provide ore, and the blacksmith shop is responsible for refining and then handing over to exchange for income.

This model has been going smoothly, but recently Pingjin City has flooded into a large number of people, and there are more shops of all kinds. The number of blacksmith shops has been reduced a lot. At present, the core city of Dongwangfu making armored weapons has been transferred to the city under Pingjin City, which can also avoid a large number of people well and not affect the progress.

The elegant man in brocade robe walked around the corner of the street for a few times, and deliberately or unintentionally looked at the distribution of the city lord's mansion. Then he found a tea stall on the street, sat down, ordered a pot of herbal tea, and took advantage of the autumn wind to drink it comfortably, both of them were not too busy or slow.

The weather tonight is particularly good. Although it is already late autumn, it is not too cold tonight. The crowds on the streets are not gradually becoming thinner until the night becomes darker.

The layout of the city lord's mansion is very strict, and it is almost impossible to enter from the front. Several teams of soldiers patrol from time to time, day and night, and each of them has a whistle for calling the police. Once a danger occurs, it will sound immediately. The Wu Mansion where the soldiers guarding the city are stationed is nearby. Ten thousand defenders are stationed in Pingjin City, changing defenses day and night, and three thousand defenders can be dispatched at any time.

These are not a secret. People who have lived in Pingjin City for a long time know the routine of the soldiers guarding the city. The man in brocade robes learned about the news without much effort.

The night was getting deeper. He finished the last sip of tea in the cup, put down the tea money, turned around, and quickly disappeared at the end of the street corner.

In the city lord's mansion, in the front hall.

Yu Sheng and Xiao Yibo are no longer sitting in the front hall, and the wing rooms on both sides are empty. In recent days, both of them have lived in the wing rooms.

There are many secret whistles in the mansion, and there are people on duty every night, so the protection must be tight. But Yu Sheng and Xiao Yibao understood that such protection may have no effect on the people coming.

Late at night, Pingjin City, which had been noisy for a day, fell into silence. There were no pedestrians on the streets. Everyone was busy for a day and fell asleep at this moment.

The patrolling army did not rest. They patrolled the city step by step according to the deployment to ensure that everything was foolproof.

Luo Bei is an ordinary sergeant in Pingjin City. Recently, there are many things happening in Pingjin City. Because he has been in the army for a long time and has not made any military achievements, he has also been promoted to a team leader, leading six sergeants to be responsible for daily patrol work in the city.

Tonight, it's their team's turn to patrol at night.

Since becoming the team leader, Luo Bei has always performed his duties conscientiously. Dongwang Mansion is a place for military merits. Soldiers like him who have never been to the battlefield rarely get the opportunity to rise. Now he has been promoted and his enthusiasm is more powerful than before. In Dongwang Mansion, officers are of high value and not only have good treatment, but they are also loved by the people.

The other members of Luobei's team were recruits, and several of them were 50,000 recruits trained by Xiao Yibo last time. In order to consolidate the city defense, these recruits were transferred by Xiao Yibo to the city to be responsible for the garrison work of the city. Most of the remaining recruits went to the imperial capital with Huang Yuanwu, and the remaining people were inevitably a little unfair.

As we all know, only by killing the enemy in battle can you achieve military achievements. As a defender, I don’t know when I can make it through.

Look at their captain Luo Bei, you will know that he has been in the army for three years and has only been in the position of a small team leader. Every soldier who joins the Eastern Prince's Mansion wants to be a general, but it is even more difficult to become a defender.

Naturally, such emotions are common among left-behind recruits. Such emotions are often present and are not a big deal.

At this moment, it was the last squad of Luobei's team tonight. Six soldiers followed Luobei, holding spears, fully armed, patrolling the empty streets. On the empty streets, they could only hear the sound of their military boots stepping on the ground.

Luo Bei is very serious in his work and will personally investigate any suspicious parts on the street. Therefore, the patrol speed of Luo Bei's team is not fast, but the patrol can be completed within the specified time. Several team members also complained about this. Other teams can complete the patrol as soon as possible and repair it as soon as possible. Only Luo Bei's team is the last one to complete the patrol and the last one to repair it.

If they couldn't go to the battlefield, they would have complained about it without military industry. They met such a captain, which made them complain more.

Surveying on the street, Luo Bei once again personally inspected the shops on both sides and left and right, pushed the doors of the shops, and confirmed that all the shops had closed the doors without any problems.

Just as Luo Bei checked the shops on both sides, the soldiers inside began to mutter softly.

"I don't know what he is looking at. There are so many defenders in our city and there are more than 100,000 troops outside. Could it be that someone dares to make trouble here?" A sergeant's voice was low and he complained in a low voice to the sergeant standing in front of him.

"Who said no? Other captains are doing it. Look at our captain, it's like a street patrolman who has done everything about land security."

"Hey... I don't know when I can make a fortune with him. When the little prince comes to the war this time, I'm afraid that our comrades of the same age will have military achievements, and only a few of us have been defending the city here."

Several soldiers were complaining, but heard the captain Luo Bei in front of him shouting: "Who is it!"

Then, several soldiers' eyes flashed before their eyes. They saw a figure flashing by the street and disappeared in an instant.

"Chasing!" Luo Bei immediately pulled out his sword, ordered several soldiers, and then took his own steps and chased the place where the black shadow disappeared.

Several soldiers were stunned, and then without thinking, they raised their spears, followed Luo Bei, and chased them straight to the small road beside them.

In the vast night, the bright moonlight shone down, and the silver and white shining shone in all the lights. Luo Bei led his team to intersperse the paths in Pingjin City, tracking the black shadow that had just appeared.

The black shadow was not fast enough to see it, and it kept galloping not far away from several people. Luo Bei frowned and kept chasing him.

In his opinion, this is just an ordinary thief. He may have gone out to steal in the middle of the night, but he did not want to be hit by himself. His thoughts were similar to those of several soldiers. There could not be any big problems in Pingjin City now. The city is very strict, and there are a large number of garrisons outside the city. Moreover, Pingjin City is not a wealthy city, and there will be no thieves with cultivation. Therefore, Luo Bei did not order the alarm, just a thief, and he thought he was absolutely sure to take this person.

Turning around the path of Pingjin City until you walk into a dead end, the man in black finally stopped running away, stood at the end of the road, quietly watching the Luobei team chasing him.

Having blocked the thief in death, Luo Bei let out a long sigh. He held the sword in his hand and stepped forward a few steps, saying, "The big thief actually dares to steal in Pingjin City, and yet he won't surrender?"

Six soldiers were guarding the intersection. In their eyes, there were high walls on both sides. This person could not escape, but they were all in a mood. The captain really regarded himself as a guard, and now he was chasing a thief.

Luo Bei slowly approached, holding a long knife, and he never relaxed his guard. Although the other party looked like an ordinary thief, he might have a weapon and was trapped here without surrendering. He was likely to have a blow. Luo Bei slowly approached, but the man in black was still motionless.

"Snatch it!" Luo Bei stood in front of the man a few steps and shouted loudly: "If there is any rash move, kill it without any worries!"

After Luo Bei shouted, the man in black on the opposite side slowly raised his head and two rays of light shot out from his eyes.

...

A moment later, a team of patrol soldiers fully armed out of the alley, slowly disappeared at the end of the street with neat steps.

There was a pile of debris in the alley, which were used by old or scrapped items by the residents around them. At this moment, red blood was slowly flowing out of the pile of items. In the night, it was like a black snake, slowly wriggling forward.

At the same time, in the Heikane Castle Warrior, fires burst into pieces and flames soared into the sky.

For a moment, whistles sounded everywhere in the city, and the fire from the Martial Palace illuminated the sky. I don’t know where it caught fire, and the Martial Palace fell into chaos.

At this moment, a team of soldiers quickly ran to the city lord's mansion, and they were immediately stopped by the garrison soldiers of the city lord's mansion.

"Who?" The sergeant guarding the gate asked loudly with a long sword in his hand.

"Report to Lord Xiao, the fire is extremely strong!" The sergeant pointed his hand at the sky beside him. The sergeant guarding the gate immediately looked in the direction, and saw a burst of fire coming from not far away. He was shocked. He was about to speak, but he felt a chill in his chest. He looked down and saw a steel knife inserted into his chest. The sergeant in front of him had no expression at this moment.

There were four people fixed at the gate of the city lord's mansion, and they were all instantly solved. After the team members quickly killed several posts, they cleaned the scene as fast as possible. The speed was amazing, and there was no blood on the ground. The four corpses were quickly lifted away and placed at the corner of the street, and hidden.

Several soldiers who came over transformed into gatekeepers of the City Lord's Mansion. At this moment, the patrol sergeant near the City Lord's Mansion walked closer and saw the fire in the distance. He was immediately shocked and hurried to the near the Mansion Gate to inquire.

At this moment, near the gate of the mansion, four people turned into guards of the mansion, while the other three seemed to be soldiers coming to report the situation, talking to the soldiers guarding the gate.

"Look! There is something happening near the Wu Mansion. Hurry up and notify the master!" The patrol captain who had just arrived immediately stepped forward and shouted loudly to the sergeant guarding the gate. The sergeant immediately showed horror, went down two steps, looked towards the Wu Mansion, saw the fire in the sky, then turned around, opened the door, and said to the patrol captain: "Come in and notify the master, we will go and prepare to put out the fire immediately!"

The patrol captain did not hesitate and stepped into the mansion. At the next moment, seven members of the patrol team were attacked at the same time, and they were so weak that they died of a life of terror. They didn't know what was going on until they died.

The same thing happened again, and the bodies of seven team members were quickly hidden. Similarly, four people continued to pretend to be guards of the City Lord's Mansion. The three of them were born, rushed into the City Lord's Mansion, and shouted as they ran: "It's time to go out! Go and put out the fire!"

At this moment, Yu Sheng and Xiao Yibao, who were closing their eyes and regulating breathing in the wing room, heard this sentence at the same time, and opened their eyes directly.

"Here you come." A ray of light burst out from Yu Sheng's eyes and he thought to himself.
Chapter completed!
