Chapter 1788 The people ask to see

After finally waiting for the sound of cannons to stop, the county magistrate slowly raised his head and wanted to find the yamen runners who prepared the door panels and quilts. However, after searching for a long time, he could not find a few people, nor did he find the bodies wearing the clothes of the yamen.

Suddenly, his face turned red with anger.

I don’t know what happened, but those yamen runners must have taken the opportunity to escape.

As he thought, several yamen runners did not get a cannon, but also escaped safely from the horse road to the city. There were also several guards on the city walls who escaped with them.

"We're leaving like that. The master knows if we will blame us in the future?" said a yamen runner worriedly.

They threw the county magistrate under the city wall and fled by themselves, almost offending the county magistrate to death.

"I'm also worried about this. Although we escaped this time, once the county magistrate returns to the yamen, we may all be put into prison."

His words made the other two yamen runners nodded and agreed.

"What do you fear?" The yamen runner who took the lead in escaping the city wall looked at several colleagues around him and then said, "You think Shouyang City can still be defended. When the bandits outside the city climb onto the city wall, with the official clothes on the master, can he walk down the city wall alive?"

"Didn't it mean that the reinforcements from the Shenwu Guard are coming? They also have to attack the bandits in our Shouyang City. Maybe they can really defend Shouyang City." The yamen runner next to them said.

The news that the reinforcements from Shenwu Guard arrived in Shouyang was no longer a secret for those working in the yamen.

Now that the gates on all sides of Shouyang City are closed, the people in the city cannot leave the city at all. The news that Shenwu Guard will attack the bandits inside and outside with the defenders in Shouyang City is no longer concealed, and has been artificially spread specifically to encourage the morale of the defenders in the city.

"If the reinforcements of Shenwu Guard came to rescue Shouyang City, they would have come long ago. The bandits have bombarded Shouyang City. Have you seen the reinforcements of Shenwu Guard come to the scene? Don't think about it, either the reinforcements of Shenwu Guard gave up Shouyang City, or they just couldn't come when they encountered any problems, so Shouyang City was no longer saved. We are just a servant who does business for the yamen. They are not such officials, so there is no need to accompany them to die." The yamen runner who took them to escape from the city wall looked at the people and said.

Everyone fled back, and the county magistrate offended them. The yamen runners knew that it would be useless to say anything else, so they simply went home to pack their bags. Shouyang City would definitely not be able to stay there.

As the sound of cannons outside the city continued to sound, more people on the street were making trouble while the chaos was in the chaos.

Several shops have been smashed and robbed on the street, and several families of people facing the street have been implicated and suffered. Moreover, more and more people have been smashed and robbed on the street.

Originally, they were just some gangsters, but later even some brave people joined in. Even the beggars in the ruined temples were grouped to get benefits for themselves.

Almost half of the order in the city has been lost.

Several yamen runaways who escaped from the city wall noticed the pillage and looting, and they could avoid it if they could. If they couldn't avoid it, they pretended to be invisible and walked over quickly from the side, and their pace of returning home became faster and faster.

The chaos in the city gradually became increasingly greater, and even fire broke out in some directions, and smoke became rolling nearby.

The people living around them walked out to put out the fire, either holding a wooden door or a wooden barrel.

Most houses are made of wood and adobe. Once they are too big, they can easily burn the whole street.

Those who took advantage of the situation to make trouble in the city saw the fire, escaped and ran away, and they dared not stay and waited to be burned to death by the fire or beaten to death by the crowd who put out the fire.

The big families in the city had already closed their doors, and the yard was covered with servants holding sticks. Several families even had bows and arrows and armor.

Although there are not many, it is enough threat for those who make trouble on the street.

In such a wealthy family, almost every one of them has a few words of corpses left outside the door.

From officials of all sizes to officials in the city to peddlers and pawns, no one knows that the richest families in the city are those rich families, so those who make trouble in the chaos naturally cannot let go of almost all the wealthy families in the city.

"The city is broken, the city is broken."

I don’t know who shouted out, but the last little order in the city was completely out of control.

Many defenders in the city also joined the looting activities.

With the joining of these people, the shop that had already tried its best to resist was quickly broken. A group of plundering teams of various people rushed into the shop instantly, robbing things when they saw them, killing them when they saw them, and even killing each other for something.

"All the people in the city go home immediately. In half a stick of incense, there are still people on the streets who are killing, smashing, looting, and killing people while they are harming their lives!"

Several fast horses rushed into the streets of Shouyang City. The rider on the horse was controlling the horse's galloping, repeating the words in his mouth over and over again.

The city gate to the west of Shouyang City has been lost. The brigade of tiger-shaped flag soldiers entered the city and began to occupy the main government offices in the city. There were also troops of warriors attacking the other gates.

The timid people began to return home one after another.

Some of the gangsters who were robbing red eyes on the street and did not take the orders of the tiger flag seriously began to be cleaned up by the tiger flag soldiers who entered the city.

Faced with the tiger-shaped flag soldiers with armor and weapons, the turmoil on the street was quickly suppressed, and some streets were filled with a pungent smell of blood.

After the Second Battle Barracks captured Shouyang City, Yu Huai led the team of thousands of people left by the Third Battle Barracks to the county government in Shouyang City.

"Where is the county magistrate? Have you run away?" Yu Huai did not see the county magistrate of Shouyang in the yamen, so he asked Xiang Xiang the squadron leader who first captured Xiayamen.

The other party came to Yu Huai and said, "I have sent someone to ask, saying that the county magistrate went to the city wall early in the morning and has not come back yet. However, I have sent someone to look for it on the city wall."

"I didn't expect to be a loyal minister." Yu Huai said, "I took good care of the county magistrate's family and arrested the county magistrate to deal with it together."

"Yes." The squadron leader nodded and responded.

At this time, a soldier ran in from outside.

"Report to the deputy commander, some people from the city came outside the yamen. I want to ask you to see the deputy commander?"

"See me?" Yu Huai frowned.

For the people in the city, the soldiers and horses with the tiger-shaped flag are bandits that everyone calls. When they capture the city, the people have long been hiding, and they have never encountered any people coming to see each other in groups.

"Maybe the name of our tiger flag was passed to Shouyang and we knew we were the righteous masters." The squadron leader standing in front of him said on the side.

Yu Huai thought for a while and said, "Then let's meet!"
