Chapter 125: Misunderstanding

"Sir, you are so wise. No matter how strong the iron armor is, it cannot stop the fire. Once the thieves walk into our ambush circle and trap them in it, they will die."

"Yes, it's so, why didn't we think of it before?"

Several officers surrounded Bao Jing and flattered him.

At this time, no one cares that once the fire starts, the surrounding houses will not be spared. If the fire spreads, how many people will be buried in the fire.

Bao Jing's face was still as heavy as water. He had already seen that the target of the thieves was obviously the grain in the granary. Laying this line of defense might not work at all. After all, if the other party did not come, everything he did would be in vain. As for sending people to seduce, relying on the remnants of the defeated soldiers in front of him, then let's forget it. At that time, I'm afraid that things will not be enough to make a mistake.

"Sir, the magistrate Chen, the magistrate and the magistrate of the garrison outside the city arrived with reinforcements."

At this time, a yamen runner hurried over, flags fluttering behind him, and a group of troops were rushing towards the here.

"I've seen Mr. Bao!"

The magistrate Chen and the county magistrate who arrived were greeted by Bao Jing.

"Well, there is no need to be too polite. Thank you for your hard work in Captain Chen."

Bao Jing looked at the commander-in-chief and looked much better. It was not easy for the other party to come to support him in such a short time, and it was much better than the ones in the city.

"Sir, what's the situation now?"

The county magistrate asked.

The other two immediately pricked their ears and looked at Bao Jing.

"It's not good."

Bao Jing sighed and briefly explained the situation in Dongcheng.

After hearing that the other party had at least a thousand armored soldiers, the three of them immediately showed a look of shock on their faces.

"Can we beat it?"

The county magistrate looked at the county magistrate and several school magistrates. He was a civil servant and had little understanding of military affairs.

The county magistrate shook his head and said hoarsely: "The power that can support so many soldiers is definitely not small. It is very likely that they are elite soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty. With our few people alone, we have no hope of confronting each other."

It is no secret that the news of the fall of Yanzhou and Chongzhou is only separated from the two states, Jizhou, and it is not impossible to have the elite Northern Wei people heading south by boat. In addition, they really can't think of any force that can afford such elites.

"What should I do? Gengshi Cang was taken away. If the boss knew about this, our heads would be insured."

The county magistrate looked at the people around him with concern.

No one can give him an answer to this.

"call out!"

Suddenly an arrow shot out from the darkness and nailed to the wall next to it.

"There is a letter from [Biqudao.xyz] on it!"

"Take it over and take a look."

A yamen run over and pull out the arrow and then took it to Bao Jing.

Bao Jing untied the letter and glanced at the surroundings, "The other party asked me to go to the granary to negotiate."

"Sir, don't agree, be careful of fraud!"

"That's right, it's better to be careful."

"No!"

Bao Jing shook his head, "I think it's better to go there. It's better to negotiate. I'm afraid I can't communicate. Maybe things will turn around."

After making up his mind, Bao Jing led the two yamen runners to the east of the city granary.

When he arrived at the granary, he immediately found that small boats transporting grain were continuously transporting grain along the waterway.

Bao Jing's eyes flashed. The purpose of these people was indeed just the food in the granary. No wonder they did not attack other places.

In addition to the ships carrying grain, there were all armored soldiers patrolling back and forth around. These soldiers were tall and covered with thick armor. Teams of people walked by in a row, like a moving wall and iron wall. A mountain-like aura was approaching their minds. Every step they took was heavy footsteps.

Not everyone can bear such heavy armor. From the smooth movements of these soldiers, it can be seen that they did not feel the difficulty, which was a bit terrifying. No wonder the people on their side were about to collapse at once. This is not unreasonable.

Looking around, soldiers wearing armor have almost covered the area in this area, with the number of people absolutely no less than two thousand!

This time, Bao Jing's face looked even worse. He couldn't figure out how many people got in, and the city guards didn't find any trace. This was really incredible.

Under the leadership of a team of soldiers, Bao Jing came to the granary.

Around the empty granary hall, there were two rows of white soldiers holding shields and halberds. Bao Jing walked in, as if walking in a passage formed by iron walls, and his heart was extremely depressed.

"You are the county magistrate Bao Jing?"

Bao Jing looked up at the end of the passage. At the end of the passage, a man in brocade clothes was sitting. He was about thirty years old. The person in front of him was probably the real master. So he said aloud: "That's right, I don't know what you call him?"

"Just call me Xu Baihu. If the court knows that the granary is lost, Lord Bao may lose his head."

"Don't go around in circles. You asked me to come here just to care about how the court dealt with me, right?"

Hearing Bao Jing's ridicule, Xu Tu smiled, "Since that's the case, I'll just say it. Not many people know what happened tonight. As long as we don't tell it, you will keep the secret. No one knows that the granary has been lost in a short period of time."

Because there is a large gap between the location of the granary and the residences of the surrounding people, and the noise here is not very loud and the sky is dark. As long as the people around them don’t go out to watch the fun, they won’t know what’s going on here in the granary.

"You mean to tell me not to report the matter here to the court?"

"That's right, we arrived here all the way south. There were almost deserted cliffs along the way, so the chances of our fleet being discovered are not high, and we can also pretend to be the fleet of the imperial navy. In this way, even the people in the city would not doubt anything when they saw our fleet."

"But this can only be hidden for a while, and it will not do me any good."

"If it is discovered, we can send someone to pick you up north, and even let you continue to be officials, so that you don't need to worry about being punished by the Daqian court."

Hearing this, Bao Jing was a little moved. After all, the Northern Wei Dynasty is now strong, and Daqian doesn't know if he can block their offensive. Once he can't stop it, there will be a possibility of destroying the country at any time. If he joins the Northern Wei Dynasty to become an official, it seems that it's good.

"Can I go back and discuss with others?"
